But obviously, yes, it is Fox 19 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 2: Football Saturday. But we can't open up and not talk 20 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 2: about the epic Game one of the World Series. I 21 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 2: guess epic if you're a Toronto fan, and epically bad 22 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 2: if you're a fan of the La Dodgers. I will 23 00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 2: preface anything that we say in this segment, by the way, 24 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 2: by acknowledge the fact that yes, it's just one game. 25 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 2: One game does not win or lose a series for 26 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 2: either team, but it does kind of set the stage 27 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 2: for what a lot of people, especially a lot of 28 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 2: people that thought the Toronto Blue Jays had a legitimate 29 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 2: shot in this series. And if you look at how 30 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 2: things played out in Game one, it kind of follows 31 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: the path of what a lot of people who supported 32 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 2: Toronto would say it would follow. Now if you look 33 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 2: at the Blue Jays in their playoff run to this point, 34 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 2: I mean they've had a lot of these high scoring games, 35 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 2: I mean thirteen point spots or thirteen run spots that 36 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 2: should say ten runs, thirteen runs. I'm going up in 37 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:36,040 Speaker 2: that Yankee series against Seattle thirteen runs, eight runs. So 38 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 2: this has been an offense that's been able, that has 39 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 2: had the ability to explode on a night in night 40 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 2: out basis. Now they've gone cold at times as well. 41 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 2: They've had a couple of games where they score one 42 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: or two runs, but very much feast or famine. And 43 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: they've been one of the best offensive units in all 44 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: of baseball. And most importantly, the way they get to 45 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 2: that point is they grind through pitchers, and for as 46 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: dominant as Blake Snell had been, as dominant as the 47 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 2: Dodger starting pitching staff had been, we really had seen 48 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: a lot of examples of their glaring weakness being their bullpen. 49 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: Because their starters were going six to seven even eight, 50 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 2: if not a complete game deep into the postseason. So 51 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 2: at some point in time you knew it was gonna happen. 52 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 2: They were gonna have to rely on their bullpen. Their 53 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 2: starters were not gonna go seven, eight, eight innings d 54 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 2: and Blake Snell, to his credit, he struggled a lot 55 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 2: in Game one, but battled through to get himself into 56 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 2: the six before it was just undeniable, before loading the 57 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 2: basis and then all of a sudden, you start getting 58 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,079 Speaker 2: to the Dodger weakness. You go into the bullpen, you're 59 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 2: bringing image she In, a converted starter who struggles, Anthony Bonda, 60 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 2: who has been good for them, but put in a 61 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 2: basis load at one out situation, struggles And this is 62 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 2: just what Toronto has done all season long and all 63 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,839 Speaker 2: postseason long, regardless of who they've played to this point 64 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 2: in time. I think the Dodgers are sholl shocked because 65 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 2: they've not seen their pitchers blasted the way they had 66 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 2: been blasted the way they were blasted in Game one 67 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 2: at them. 68 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 3: So there's a bit of a shock to the system. 69 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 2: But if you've been watching the postseason as a whole 70 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 2: and seeing how this Toronto offense has lit pitching staffs up, 71 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 2: probably shouldn't be that surprised. 72 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 4: Now nobody's been better. And really they didn't get much 73 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 4: from Vladimir Guerrero Junior tonight and they still did all 74 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 4: this damage. 75 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 3: You walked had a hit, but certainly no ginormous impact. 76 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 4: No, not for the guy who has bitten on a 77 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 4: legendary run here in the postseason. To me, this is 78 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 4: the game and probably in the fashion that they want it, 79 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 4: that the Blue Jays needed to have a chance in 80 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 4: this series because of how dominant the Dodgers have been. 81 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 4: Because the invincibility and the aura of the Dodgers, and 82 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 4: especially Blake Snell, who had been on an historic run 83 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 4: is now gone. Now it's like inn predator when they're like, 84 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 4: if it bleeds, we can kill it. It's that type 85 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 4: of thing with them, and they saw the Dodgers finally 86 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 4: bleed their own blood. 87 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 2: And I will say too one issue that has not 88 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 2: been glaring for the Dodgers because their pitching has been 89 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 2: so dominant, it's not as if they're really. 90 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 3: Tearing the cover off the ball offensively. 91 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 2: I would say I was side of that clinching game, 92 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 2: the Game four, the historic night from Schoho Tiny that 93 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 2: we talked about last Friday. They've been pretty pedestrian, if 94 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 2: not bad, offensively this entire postseason run. They're winning games 95 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: two to one, walk off walks, walk off errors by 96 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 2: the Phillies to win that series. I mean, that's kind 97 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 2: of how it's been. If it's not been pre dominant pitching, 98 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: the Dodgers wouldn't have not made it this far because 99 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 2: our offense has done next to nothing, despite the fact 100 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 2: that they have all those MVPs up and down the lineup. 101 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 4: It's the starting pitching and the bullpen had been much better, 102 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 4: well not tonight. And you wonder if that doubt starts 103 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 4: to creep in with the bullpen that maybe they were 104 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 4: due for performance like this because they had been pitching 105 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 4: over their heads from what we saw throughout the end 106 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 4: of the regular season from this Dodgers group early in 107 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 4: the playoffs. 108 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 3: Now it's also different. 109 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 2: Guy like she and by the way, even going back 110 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 2: to the Wildcard series against the Reds, had not pitched 111 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 2: extremely well in this postseason in general, didn't pitch well 112 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 2: against the Phillies out there and in Game two I 113 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 2: believe it was so he has struggled. A big loss 114 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 2: was Alex Vesio, who's dealing with a personal matter, was 115 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 2: not placed on the World Series roster. He along with Sasaki, 116 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 2: are probably the two best bullpen arms. Blake trying and 117 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 2: has pitched better, although he still hasn't been great, but 118 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 2: he's been better. Those have been the three guys out 119 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 2: of the bullpen they really leaned on the most. None 120 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 2: of those guys obviously Vessi and not available for the 121 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 2: series trying to didn't pitch tonight. And now that it's 122 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 2: Asaki in a safe situation, you're going to guys who 123 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 2: I would say somewhat high leverage. I mean, that's as 124 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 2: high of a leverage of a situation as you can 125 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 2: get in a two to two tie in the sixth 126 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 2: inning of a World Series game. And image and again, 127 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 2: who's a converted starter that's just not used to coming 128 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 2: in in a situation like that with traffic on the 129 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 2: bases and it showed and. 130 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 4: He only pitched a third of an inning, got hit 131 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 4: with three runs. That's a seventeen point one to eight ero. 132 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 4: You know, one of those crazy eras you see in 133 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 4: a small sample size theater. 134 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 2: I love the old opening week eras where a closer 135 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 2: blows a game and his era has won sixty two 136 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: or so. 137 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 4: Like they spend the rest of the season trying to 138 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 4: figure things out. Blake Snell, though, to me, this was 139 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 4: mister invincible, because we had Ned Colletti on yesterday on 140 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 4: Rogan and Rodney on our local station on AM five 141 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 4: seventy LA Sports, Home of the Dodgers, and I asked 142 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 4: him about this parallel because he was in San Francisco 143 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 4: in the front office under Brian Sabian for years and 144 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 4: they brought in great pitchers like Matt Cain, Tim Lincecom 145 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 4: and this playoff idol legend in the name of Madison Bumgarner, 146 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 4: a big lefty, And to me, what Blake Snell was 147 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 4: doing throughout the postseason up until tonight was Madison Bumgarner esque. 148 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 4: I asked Ned Colletti the similarities. He said, there's seventy 149 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 4: percent comparable, thirty percent different. Well, tonight was very different 150 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 4: because Madison Bumgarner has the greatest I think World Series era, 151 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 4: at least in the modern era, this side of Sandy Kofax. 152 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 4: He was unhittable in the postseason and whether or not 153 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 4: he was starting or coming out in relief in a 154 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 4: Game seven against the King at the City Royals back 155 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 4: in twenty fourteen, and tonight Blake Snell, who had been 156 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 4: lights out for them. In fact, you look at the numbers, 157 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 4: he had given up six hits total in the postseason, 158 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 4: just two runs. And then Varshow has that blast off 159 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,239 Speaker 4: of him and it changes everything and he gets knocked 160 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 4: out early and gets tagged with five earned runs. That 161 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 4: to me is the biggest development because if this series 162 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 4: is going deep, well he's pitching again in Game five, 163 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 4: that would be a Dodger stadium. But the Blue Jays 164 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 4: feel confident against their number one ace and they have 165 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 4: plenty of them. 166 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, so the Dodgers have multiple aces on their staff. 167 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 4: But if this is the one A and the guy 168 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 4: who looked the most dominant here in the postseason and 169 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 4: they're hitting translated against Blake Snell, that has to be 170 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 4: a confidence builder for them. 171 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. 172 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 2: Now, granted we could come back tomorrow night, and Yammogio 173 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 2: could be as dominant as he has been throughout this postseason, 174 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 2: not as dominant as Snell. But now, look, he had 175 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 2: the complete game last week, and the Dodgers win that game, 176 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 2: score some runs, and we're right back to square one. 177 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 3: So all is not necessarily lost. 178 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 2: But I do think to your point, because everybody, everybody 179 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 2: outside of like obviously Los Angeles, I think Hawaii, there's 180 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 2: like one or two states in the country, were all 181 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 2: rooting against the Dodgers. So it's kind of like the 182 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 2: Dodgers against everybody. They have the entire nation of Canada 183 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 2: and most of the most of North America as a 184 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 2: whole rooting against them at this point a evil empire, and. 185 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 3: The Dodgers were heavy favorites. 186 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 2: And to your point, it gives Toronto a ginormous boost 187 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 2: of confidence to know that they can get a victory 188 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 2: against one of the best pitchers in all of baseball 189 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 2: in the World Series, a place that a lot of 190 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 2: people thought that people thought Toronto's playing with house money, 191 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 2: that they were just happy to get here. People were 192 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 2: lauding the Dodgers for after they beat Milwaukee in Game four, 193 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 2: how they just lined up and clapped each other's hands. 194 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 2: It didn't really go crazy on the field. It was 195 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 2: business as usual. The World Series is you know, we 196 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: have to win the World Series. That's the big accomplishment. 197 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: Getting there doesn't mean anything. Toronto obviously went crazy. They 198 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 2: had the George Springer home run with in that place, 199 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 2: went absolutely nuts in game seven. 200 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 3: They're not just happy to be here. 201 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 2: They're on a mission, and I think this guy's really 202 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 2: going to show a line up to be a pretty 203 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 2: exciting series, which I'm here for the idea that the 204 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 2: Dodgers will come in and sweep them. 205 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 3: Nobody wants to see that. 206 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 4: We both had Dodgers and six. I believe correct, correct, 207 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 4: we did, and we're never wrong wrong all the time. 208 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 4: Now I'm not a waiver from that. By the way, No, well, 209 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 4: we're not changing our picks. Where were we, Steve Hartman? 210 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 4: The pick was right, the outcome was wrong. The pick 211 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 4: was right, the outcome is wrong. Tonight does not mean 212 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 4: the Blue Jays are winning the series. To me, what 213 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 4: it says is they have the ability to. Now if 214 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,200 Speaker 4: you had given away home field in Game one and 215 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 4: just got shut out by Blake SNeW like everybody else 216 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 4: had and it's the same old story. Yeah, they were 217 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 4: hitting till they ran into the Dodgers. Then I would 218 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 4: think you're probably tucking your tail between your legs and 219 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 4: getting swept or getting gentlemen swept. 220 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 2: They're still an element like this team has no quit 221 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 2: I mean, how many times were they down in that 222 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 2: Seattle series and not having to come back and went 223 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 2: on the road, Like there's just a certain something about 224 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: the team, even if like in their pitching staff. By 225 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 2: the way, why I thought ultimately the Dodgers would end 226 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 2: up winning. I thought their offense has struggled throughout the 227 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 2: postseason because of the pitching staffs they faced, the overabundance 228 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 2: of left handers that the Phillies had that Milwaukee had, 229 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 2: and that, above anything else, is why Freddy Freeman and 230 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 2: Joeyotani were struggling so much. This is the worst pitching staff. 231 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 2: And it's not that Toronald's pitching staff is terrible. 232 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 3: They're in the middle of the pack. 233 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 2: They were good this season, nothing special, They weren't terrible, 234 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 2: but the worst of all the pitching staffs the Dodgers 235 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 2: would have faced in the playoffs, So I thought their 236 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 2: offense would actually be able to break out a little bit, 237 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 2: and the look they had their opportunities. I mean, really, 238 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 2: what it came down to the Dodgers at the bases 239 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 2: loaded a couple of times, did very little with it, right. 240 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 4: Got a couple of runs off of Ye Savage, who 241 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 4: pitched like three times in the regular season, and all 242 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 4: of a sudden, he just got drafted. 243 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 3: Adam the drafted him in April one, just got here. 244 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 4: Maybe he's the Madison bum Garner of the post Sayson. 245 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 4: Once things are all said and done, he gave up 246 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 4: two runs and four earned, but you will take that. 247 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 3: He had to work his way through it. He definitely 248 00:10:58,800 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 3: had to batch. 249 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 4: It was a hot it was a high wire act, 250 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 4: and he minimized the damage. 251 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 2: And if you're a Dodger fan, you would say, this 252 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 2: is something you've been dealing with all season long, not 253 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 2: being able to cash in, not be able to get 254 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 2: those big innings consistently. 255 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 3: In the second half of the season. 256 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 4: I thought, when the Jays had the bases loaded in 257 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 4: the first against Snell, that might have been their best 258 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 4: opportunity and they didn't cash in, and I thought that 259 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 4: was gonna come back to haunt them. Little did I 260 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 4: know the sixth inning would come around, and before that 261 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 4: they had already tied it too, and that was really 262 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 4: the turning point of the game. As we're she in 263 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 4: her replay here at Fox Sports Radio Studios, Emachian's on 264 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 4: the mound, bases loaded zero house. I don't know if 265 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 4: this is gonna go very well for him, Kevin. I 266 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 4: got a good feeling about this for the Toronto Blue 267 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 4: Jays here, guarantee. But this Blue Jay's team, anybody that 268 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 4: gets to this point, feels like they're a team of destiny. 269 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 5: Right. 270 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,319 Speaker 4: So if you then take down the team that's heavily 271 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 4: favored in this series, whether you're going off of betting 272 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 4: odds or just what the general public think, and you 273 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 4: win game. 274 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 3: One, what does Terry Rozier think? 275 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 4: That's what matters to me. Well, we'll get to that 276 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 4: in the next segment. But you win game one in 277 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 4: dominating fashion where the crowd is into it like this, 278 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 4: and this is the most excitement that they've had up 279 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 4: North since twenty nineteen with Jurassic Park and the Toronto 280 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 4: Raptors and Kawhi Leonard. They haven't had a situation like this, 281 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 4: and now you reward them for showing up the way 282 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 4: they did tonight. With a big victory like this in 283 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 4: Game one, you got all the momentum in the world. 284 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 4: I know they say momentum is just the next starting 285 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 4: pitcher is as good as that, but I think this 286 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 4: was meaningful. Tonight, you lose Game one, I would have 287 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 4: no hope if I was a Toronto Blue Jays fan. 288 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 4: No hope. 289 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 2: I will say, even if the Dodgers lose tomorrow night 290 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 2: or tonight, depending on where you mean listen listening here 291 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 2: coast to coast here on Fox Sports Radio, I don't 292 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 2: know that I would say that the Dodgers are done 293 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 2: in this series, going back home with three games now 294 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 2: and not with the two three two format. Yeah, so 295 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 2: I think it's great for Toronto. I think it's great 296 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:03,559 Speaker 2: for this series because the last thing I wanted to 297 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 2: see again would have been a sweep by the Dodgers 298 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,120 Speaker 2: or sweep by either team. And I think it's it 299 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 2: turns out to be a really good matchup. And I 300 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 2: think we really got some good going here. I really do. 301 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to this. That's probably be fun. 302 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 4: The biggest takeaway here we have a legit World series. 303 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 4: I don't see either team sweeping or either team winning 304 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 4: in five games. Now, I think we're going back to 305 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 4: Toronto is the point. 306 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 3: I think so too. 307 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 4: Whoever wins it is gonna have to do so yeah, 308 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 4: in Game six or seven. 309 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 2: And by the way, well, since we're talking about the 310 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 2: World Series and the Dodgers, and there's been so much 311 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 2: talk and so many articles written and discussion topics on 312 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 2: shows about whether or not the Dodgers are buying championships 313 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 2: and if they're bad for baseball. Yes, the Dodgers have, 314 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: by the way, the second highest payroll in the Major 315 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 2: League Baseball, the first. 316 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 3: The New York Mets are not even in the postseason. 317 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 4: Okay, can I add some context of this though? Sure, 318 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 4: what happens if you add in all the deferred money 319 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 4: guys who are out there on the field playing that 320 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 4: just aren't counted against the cap right now. 321 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 2: It's sure, you can add that if you want, But 322 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 2: I mean, that's not they're physically out there. Yeah, but 323 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 2: they're not offering contracts that nobody else can offer. 324 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 3: You're right, So if I've met them, playing field is level. 325 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 2: When it comes to that, the Dodgers, the Mets could 326 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 2: have offered it the first salary contract to wan Soto, 327 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 2: he didn't want one. 328 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 4: I'm just saying the talent disparity is still there even 329 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 4: though one team may have a slightly higher payroll this season, 330 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 4: because the other team is deferring a bunch of guys 331 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 4: that aren't counting on the book. 332 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 3: The argument saying that it's fair. 333 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: Whether it's fair or not, it's fair because again, they're 334 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 2: not doing anything fair. Okay, So that's what the discussion is. 335 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 2: So I'm not saying that there isn't a disparity in talent. 336 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 2: I'll acknowledge that, but the idea that they're paying guys 337 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 2: more than anybody else can pay them. By the way, 338 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 2: Toronto has the fifth highest payroll in all of baseball, 339 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 2: So it's not like there's some bottom feeder underdog let's 340 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 2: get one. They're like they're an Oakland A's or something 341 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 2: out here. 342 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 4: Not saying that, I just think it's been a little 343 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 4: bit mischaracterized because everybody keeps bringing up the Mets. Well, 344 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 4: they have a bigger payroll than the Dodgers, and where 345 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 4: are they. 346 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 2: Well even still, whether deferred money or not, they both 347 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 2: have overinflated giant payrolls one and two. One did not 348 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 2: make the postseason one is in the World Series. I 349 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 2: think just based on that, it proves to you that 350 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 2: just because you spend money, it doesn't guarantee you a thing. 351 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 4: You're right about that it never does. 352 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: Well, not if you ask a lot of fans out there, 353 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 2: this Dodgers team. 354 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 4: Look, the Yankees went, let's see, fifteen years just about No, 355 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 4: they went from the year two thousand till two nine 356 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 4: without winning a World Series while always having the highest 357 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 4: payroll and going out and getting Giambi and getting a 358 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 4: rod and bait. Sure they'd need it in Cheffield. 359 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 2: And by the way, I'll say this to Adam because 360 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 2: people might might forget this. So that last team that 361 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 2: went back to back was what ninety nine two thousand 362 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 2: or ninety eight ninety. 363 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 4: Nine against Atlanta and then the New York Mets. 364 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 2: So it wasn't until after that because those teams are 365 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 2: built mostly around homegrown players. Those are great players and 366 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 2: Hall of famers and you know your Jeters and your 367 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 2: Bernie Williams and guys like that. It wasn't until after 368 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 2: that that O one season when they beat Seattle that 369 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 2: had that great team that a Rob was on that 370 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 2: team and Griffy and all that it was after that 371 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 2: that they decided to go out and get guys like 372 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 2: Giambi and go out to get Sheffield, And they didn't 373 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 2: win a World Series, like you mentioned, for almost a 374 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 2: decade that entire time, when they had this overinflated payroll, 375 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 2: where the gap between them being the highest spending team 376 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 2: and the second highest spending team was astronomical, even more 377 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 2: so than the Mets and Dodgers than anybody else right now, 378 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,320 Speaker 2: and they weren't winning championships back then. That, by the way, 379 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 2: those Yankee teams is the reason why the luxury tax 380 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 2: system is in place to begin with. Yeah, there wasn't 381 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 2: a cap at that point in time, and people said, 382 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 2: the Yankees are quote unquote buying titles. We have to 383 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 2: find a way to even the playing field, even though 384 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 2: they never won one. That's when the luxury attack system 385 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 2: was put in place because people felt that the Yankees 386 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 2: were buying every single possible great free agent out there. 387 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 6: Now. 388 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 4: It's not like they were the Mets this season. They 389 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 4: were getting there. They lost to Arizona in two thousand 390 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 4: and one in seven games. They lost the Marlins in 391 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 4: two thousand and three at the Red Sox collapse in 392 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,919 Speaker 4: two thousand and four, right, they lose four straight the 393 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 4: miracle with Boston. They were hanging around and in contention, 394 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 4: but it did feel like they lost a little bit 395 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 4: of their culture, a little bit of their identity. The 396 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 4: scrappy guys like Knob Bloc, Ortino Martinez or Scott Brocious, 397 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 4: the guys that won those four championships in the mid 398 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 4: nineties till the year two thousand, there was a different makeup. 399 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:39,360 Speaker 4: It did feel more homegrown. Yeah, and buying a championship, 400 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 4: as you mentioned earlier, does not guarantee anything. This Dodgers team, though, 401 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 4: they look like the most stacked and well put together 402 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 4: team in a variety of ways. Because when you brought 403 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 4: in Andrew Friedman, the first thing I thought was what 404 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 4: happens with a guy like this who was able to 405 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 4: construct great rosters? Was sixty million dollars with the Tampa 406 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 4: Bay Rays. Who can scout, who can bring in guys 407 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 4: through a farm system that end up becoming stars? And 408 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 4: then what happens if that guy can also have an 409 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 4: open checkbook for everybody else on the free agent market. 410 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 4: So they went out, they didn't just spend it on 411 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 4: anyone they thought they were bringing in and they were 412 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 4: right culture type of guys. I don't know how the 413 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 4: hell the Boston Red Sox gave him Mookie bets Boston. Yeah, 414 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 4: so the Red Sox traded Mookie. 415 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 2: The Atlanta Braves chose not to offer Freddy Freeman a contract. 416 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 4: Was his agent was. That was a weird thing where 417 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 4: his agent there may have been a contract, and I 418 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 4: think he left his agent after that. But that was 419 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 4: a weird thing where Freddy Freeman had had some I 420 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 4: guess second thoughts for a bit. Now he's a true 421 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 4: blue Dodger forever. But yeah, they went out and got 422 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 4: guys that were of good character and weren't just numbers 423 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 4: guys and superstars in that way. 424 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, that fit what that fit what they did, you know. 425 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 2: I mean, they didn't necessarily go out and chase after 426 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 2: Wan Soto. It sounds like they were luke warm on 427 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 2: Bryce Harper when he was available. Yeah, you know, so 428 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 2: they don't just go out and just try to buy 429 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 2: every great free agent that's available. 430 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 3: They have to make sure. 431 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 2: Manny Machado they had in house and decided not to 432 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 2: bring him back, and he's a phenomenal player, you know, 433 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 2: because he didn't fit their their locker room and their 434 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 2: team culture. 435 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 4: And they went to the World Series in twenty seventeen, 436 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 4: could have won despite the cheating going on with. 437 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 2: Yankee should have gone Yankee, we should have had Yankees. 438 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 2: Dodgers in twenty seventeen shouldn't gotten to that point. 439 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 4: The Red Sox, who by the way, had Mookie and 440 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 4: they admitted to doing some sign stealing stuff in twenty eighteen, 441 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 4: also beat the Dodgers. They had some tough luck and 442 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 4: now the worm has turned and everybody's looking at them 443 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 4: as being the evil vampire or the villain in this case, 444 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 4: when they're like, wait a second, we're the team that 445 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 4: got screwed. 446 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, how does that work? 447 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 4: So yeah, we're building a great team. We're taking away 448 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 4: show hail Tani, who the Angels could have retained. He 449 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 4: offered them the ability to just match the seven hundred 450 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:09,439 Speaker 4: million from the Dodgers that's on them, by the. 451 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 2: Way, the exact same contract he signed with the Dodgers, 452 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 2: he could have signed with Toronto. 453 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 3: So this idea that. 454 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 2: It was inevitable that he was going to go to 455 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:18,880 Speaker 2: the Dodgers and nobody else offered him or anything like that. 456 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 2: He could have signed with Toronto. Oh, they threw the 457 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 2: money out there for him. 458 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,960 Speaker 4: Part of the excitement of beating the Dodgers and that 459 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 4: possibility for the Blue Jays certainty. 460 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: The chance is we don't need you or whatever it 461 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:32,720 Speaker 2: was they had late in the seventh inning, eighth inning, 462 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 2: whatever it was. 463 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 4: And he went back to struggling a little bit tonight. 464 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 4: You sure did.

And Dave Roberts said, well, I 585 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 9: tell the guys it's more like a street fight than 586 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 9: a professional boxing match. And I like that. So when 587 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 9: the Dodgers, when Snow gave up that home run to 588 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 9: run home run, that was a mistake, okay, but it 589 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,159 Speaker 9: was like man Manuel said, a punch in the face, 590 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 9: and I thought to myself, you guys got to knuckle up, 591 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 9: you know, And then I realized the song was actually 592 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 9: squabble up. 593 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 6: Yeah. 594 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 9: I think they need to you know, they need to fight, 595 00:26:58,160 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 9: you know, that's my thought. 596 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:00,959 Speaker 3: All right, thank you, Andrew. 597 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, but a knuck if you buck they got thrown 598 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 2: behind the alley and got their asses whipped. 599 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,160 Speaker 4: You're saying it was Rocky five. It was a street fight. 600 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 4: Most people were not a fan of that one, especially 601 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 4: coming off of Rocky four. 602 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 2: I think if the Dodgers had their preference, it will 603 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 2: be a boxing match, because I it was a street fight. 604 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 3: It looks more like you did on Friday Night. 605 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 2: And they're getting their ass whooped from one side of 606 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 2: Toronto to the other. 607 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, and it feels like anything could be thrown ashi 608 00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 4: out of nowhere. There's no rules. It's that type of 609 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 4: situation up in Toronto. 610 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,160 Speaker 2: All right, So tell me what the odds are now 611 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 2: of Toronto winning the World Series?

So this case has been building 654 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 4: by the FBI and the FEDS for over a year. 655 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 4: But Terry Rozier was cleared by the NBA. 656 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was the point that I wanted to bring 657 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 2: up the fact that the NBA did their investigation into 658 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 2: Rosier because this is not something new when it comes 659 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 2: to him over these past couple of years, and they 660 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 2: exonerated him. 661 00:29:58,200 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 3: They said there was nothing to see here. 662 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 4: Well, and I thought there was nothing to see also 663 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 4: because he leaves that game after ten minutes with a 664 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 4: foot injury and didn't play the rest of that season, 665 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 4: So I felt like, okay, it must have been a 666 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 4: legit injury. He didn't come back the very next game. Well, 667 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 4: now there's more coming out about that from Brian Winhorse 668 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 4: of ESPN. 669 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, so this is a Brian win Horse was on 670 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 2: Rich Eisen Show earlier this week and offered some more 671 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 2: insight that I had not heard from anywhere else as 672 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 2: to why Terry Rogier actually did sit out the remainder 673 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 2: of that season. 674 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 6: Do we have that mark? 675 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 10: The NBA at some point is going to have to 676 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 10: explain why Terry Rogier was allowed to keep playing. 677 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: And I just want to point something out. 678 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:40,080 Speaker 10: The sportsbooks caught the irre, irregular betting on Terry rose 679 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 10: Year the day it happened, the morning it happened, when 680 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 10: all of a sudden there was hundreds of thousands of 681 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 10: dollars coming in on Terry Rozier unders for a relatively 682 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 10: meaningless game in November, I'm sorry, in March involving the 683 00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 10: Charlotte Hornets. The sportsbooks caught it. They told the NBA 684 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 10: right away, and guess what, the NBA Brazier didn't play 685 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 10: the rest of the season, and he had faked the injury, 686 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 10: so it wasn't because of the injury. 687 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 4: The NBA pulled them. 688 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 10: They pulled Johntay Porter to they they flagged Johntay Porter 689 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 10: and pulled Johntay Porter. The NBA's measures there, you know 690 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 10: their their complain, you know their their their their protection measures, 691 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 10: the sportsbooks protection measures triggered this. 692 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 4: They caught it, Okay. My question is if they pulled 693 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 4: him and the foot injury was faked and that's the 694 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 4: reason he didn't play the rest of the season because 695 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 4: they wanted to look into this while not having the 696 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 4: story come out right away that the real that what 697 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 4: they were looking into was gambling and that goes to 698 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 4: the credibility and integrity of the league. 699 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 2: Well, I guess my question is why would you Why 700 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 2: would you shut down and call out and make it 701 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 2: public with Johntay Porter, but you wouldn't. 702 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:53,479 Speaker 3: Do the same thing with Rosier. 703 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 4: I'll tell you why, because it doesn't matter with Johntay 704 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 4: Porter because they could make an example out of him 705 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 4: as a two a fringe NBA player. Well, meanwhile, why. 706 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 3: Terry Rogier is like Lebron James or anything. 707 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 4: He's He's making twenty six million a year. 708 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 2: He's a solid role player, he's a name player to 709 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 2: a certain degree. 710 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 3: But Terry Rogier is not. 711 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 2: Gonna I understand why I guess to a certain degree 712 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 2: that you'd want to try to cover it up. But 713 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 2: I mean, what if we're in the world of transparency. 714 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 2: I think when you get more credit, more credibility. Look 715 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 2: what Roger Goodell in the NFL did. Calvin Ridley is 716 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 2: a good player. I wouldn't say he's a great player. 717 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 2: I don't know if he might be on par as 718 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 2: an NFL receiver as Terry Rozier as an NBA. 719 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 3: Player, and they suspended him. 720 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 2: They suspended multiple Colts players just for gambling on site, 721 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 2: not even gambling on football games. Like, even if they're there, 722 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 2: you are do have things going on in the back room, 723 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 2: and you want to keep things under wraps. You at 724 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 2: least have to give the air that you're being somewhat credible, 725 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 2: that you're trying to be on the up and up, 726 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 2: and that you're policing these things the right way. I 727 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 2: don't see what the NBA stands to gain. If anything, 728 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 2: you would rather be Terry Rogier than be a superstar player. 729 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 2: You'd rather be a name role player than a giant star. 730 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 2: If you're gonna if you're willing to take down a 731 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 2: name role player, that shows that you're at least being 732 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 2: somewhat credible in this. 733 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 4: Maybe they felt like, man, now we got two guys, 734 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 4: it's not just Johntay Porter. Now it's looking even worse 735 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 4: for the league. So they kept one quiet in Terry 736 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 4: Rozier while they investigated it from the back and basically 737 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 4: gave him a quiet suspension behind the scenes, but where 738 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 4: he couldn't. 739 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 2: Play ignorance on their part to think that this is 740 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 2: not going to continue to happen. 741 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 4: Or that it would never get out that they actually 742 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 4: that he actually didn't have an injury and they just 743 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 4: shut him down. 744 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and when it comes to situations like this, 745 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:37,959 Speaker 2: is really hard to keep stuff like that under wraps, 746 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 2: you know, And now all of a sudden. 747 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 4: You cover up would be worse than the crime. 748 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 5: Though. 749 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, absolutely, it absolutely is, which again, just litigate 750 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 2: it from the very beginning and just be transparent from 751 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 2: day one. 752 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 4: If that's true, though, that they pulled him and he 753 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 4: wasn't actually injured, then you're asking, as the Miami Heat, 754 00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 4: what the hell did I get myself into trading for 755 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 4: this player? Wait a second, we didn't know this information 756 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 4: that he was being investigated by you guys, and that 757 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 4: could come back with the FBI later on, and then 758 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 4: we could actually lose this player and he could be 759 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 4: banned for life like that would have been pertinent information 760 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 4: for us because we brought in Terry Rozier. How dare 761 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 4: you say that he was hurt if he really wasn't 762 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,440 Speaker 4: because you just wanted to keep it quiet so it 763 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 4: doesn't blow up the league with a story that cuts 764 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:24,479 Speaker 4: to the integrity of the league. 765 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 2: And see and by the way, this is not this 766 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 2: is an issue the NBA has had to face in 767 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 2: the past when it comes to him. Back when David Stern, 768 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:34,919 Speaker 2: the Tim Donahy situation and the keeping quiet that whole 769 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 2: story that The New York Post was getting ready to publish, 770 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,959 Speaker 2: and David Stern using his people in the NBA front 771 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 2: office in law enforcement to make sure that didn't come 772 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 2: out until they signed their big TV contract with TNC 773 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 2: and ESPN. And I think it was like three weeks 774 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 2: after that that the story actually was published and the 775 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:51,399 Speaker 2: whole bomb show dropped. 776 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 4: And he passed it off as rogue referee. Meanwhile, he 777 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 4: made one hundred and thirty four calls to Scott Foster 778 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 4: before and after games during the time that he was gambling. 779 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 2: By the way, and told Chris Paul to his face, 780 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 2: mocked him about how Chris Paul never wins playoff games 781 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 2: or playoff series. 782 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 4: That he officiates. The NBA has put themselves in a 783 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 4: really bad spot. These guys have put them in a 784 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 4: bad spot. But you make a deal with the devil, 785 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,240 Speaker 4: and I know everybody does it with these sports betting, 786 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 4: with these gamified leagues. Did you hear last night Kenny 787 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 4: Smith went from calling it gambling to gaming. He called 788 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 4: it gaming. He corrected himself by the second segment, because 789 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 4: they're in bed obviously with fan duel or DraftKings. We 790 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 4: all do it too. At some point, like I know, 791 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 4: there's no going back. We opened up Pandora's box. But 792 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 4: at some point we have to look at ourselves. This 793 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 4: is a moral this is an ethical issue, and maybe 794 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 4: this was the wrong move to get in bed with 795 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 4: all these places because we're gonna see more of this stuff. 796 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 4: All they care about is the Dallas signs. That's what 797 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 4: Jaylen Brown said on Thursday. 798 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 2: This is the f and A on FSR Fox Football Saturday. 799 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 2: You gotta take a quick time out.

We will talk to Petros papadaeikas 805 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,439 Speaker 2: f Fox and FS one college football analysts. We'll also 806 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 2: get into the NFL six pack before that. 807 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 4: Though it's part two, sequels typically aren't as good, especially 808 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,720 Speaker 4: in the horror genre. But you know what, We're gonna 809 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 4: make it good. Okay, because this is Adam's horribly long 810 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 4: Halloween Spectacular marathon. Last week we add two categories we 811 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 4: gave you.

Oh, a bye week will not save 955 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 4: you though, from my wrath as the Jaguars played that 956 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,480 Speaker 4: bad on Sunday and I can't let it go. 957 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 3: Are you doing this because you had them in too on? 958 00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 3: Too off? 959 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,720 Speaker 4: Nothing to do with that, okay, just making sure. Okay, 960 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 4: maybe that was the reason I broke my rule. I 961 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 4: broke my one rule like the fool I am, by 962 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 4: betting on a game that took place in London because 963 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,000 Speaker 4: I thought, you know, the Jaguars, they've played there all 964 00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:35,320 Speaker 4: the time, they have home field advantage. Nope, doesn't matter, 965 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:38,400 Speaker 4: and they got destroyed by the Rams who the Kevin 966 00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,879 Speaker 4: took Kevin took on the other end of the line. 967 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,279 Speaker 4: I think it was Jaguars plus three. I'm like, all 968 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 4: they got to do is lose by less than a 969 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:49,000 Speaker 4: field goal. I think they lost by three touchdowns. 970 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 3: And it wasn't even that close. 971 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:53,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, they're a weak ass house cat and I know 972 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 4: about them. They're nothing. I am bitter because of what 973 00:43:57,760 --> 00:43:59,839 Speaker 4: happened in two on two off. More on that coming 974 00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 4: up as well. But I just feel like Trevor Lawrence, 975 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:09,320 Speaker 4: Like they call him Sunshine for the character and remember 976 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 4: the Titans. 977 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:11,360 Speaker 3: That's disrespectful to Sunshine. 978 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,719 Speaker 4: Well, he's playing like where the sun don't shine, and 979 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 4: I'm tired of his inconsistency. Now in year five, he 980 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,880 Speaker 4: has his lowest QB rating since his rookie year. I 981 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 4: don't care that he's been sacked seventeen times the last 982 00:44:24,560 --> 00:44:27,200 Speaker 4: three games, when most of that is on him for 983 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 4: holding onto the ball he does. He holds onto it 984 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,120 Speaker 4: way too long. They're calling him Saxonville again, but for 985 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 4: the wrong reasons this time, because everyone gets a chance 986 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 4: to sack Trevor Lawrence because he holds onto the ball 987 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 4: tighter than he holds onto that pot of gold the 988 00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 4: Jaguars gave him because he's making fifty five million a year. 989 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 4: It's bad. Now. He's about as decisive as a sloth 990 00:44:51,960 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 4: out there with his reds, and it makes some of 991 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 4: his passes uglier than sloth. In the Goonies, You guys, 992 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,759 Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence looks worse than Daniel Jones ever did with 993 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 4: the Giants, but he ain't taking any of that heat. 994 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:09,800 Speaker 4: So I'm gonna give it to him here. Daniel Jones 995 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 4: took a lot of heat in New York. Trevor Jones 996 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 4: is skating by in Jacksonville while playing worse. 997 00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:18,359 Speaker 2: This is no disrespect to Duvall, but Daniel Jones took 998 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,200 Speaker 2: heat in New York because he was in New York. 999 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:21,320 Speaker 4: I don't know what I'm saying. 1000 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,919 Speaker 2: So Jacksonville, Jacksonville obviously a little bit of a different beast. 1001 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:28,360 Speaker 4: Well, I'm gonna put Jacksonville and the Jaguars and Trevor 1002 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 4: Lawrence under the hot seat. I'm gonna shine a light 1003 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,279 Speaker 4: on just how wildly and consistent Sunshine has been. 1004 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,399 Speaker 2: Now do you give him any sort of credit knowing 1005 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 2: that he basically has had How long has he been 1006 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:39,880 Speaker 2: in the league now? 1007 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 6: Six years. 1008 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 2: Five years, he's had like five four or five offensive coordinators. 1009 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,400 Speaker 2: That's because they kind to give me Alex Smith treatment 1010 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 2: to a certain degree. 1011 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no, he's the reason they've had so 1012 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 4: many turnovers. They're like, it's got to be the offensive coordinator. 1013 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:54,960 Speaker 4: It can't be Trevor. At some point, it might be 1014 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 4: Trevor Lawrence. 1015 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,399 Speaker 2: It might be I'm not completely absolving him with responsibility. 1016 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,800 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, well, you have no consistency in your offense, 1017 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,319 Speaker 2: that there's a bit of a learning curve, and you 1018 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,160 Speaker 2: don't have necessarily a whole lot to work with a 1019 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 2: lot of the time. 1020 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 3: He has a lot working against them. 1021 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,040 Speaker 2: Look, but if you were transcendent and being compared to 1022 00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:11,400 Speaker 2: Andrew Luck when you came out. 1023 00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, what about that? 1024 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:13,480 Speaker 3: To who much is given, much is required. 1025 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 4: So didn't they win a national championship in Clemson as 1026 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:18,720 Speaker 4: a true freshman as a starter? He sure did. 1027 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,760 Speaker 3: Dedroid Nick Saban's Alabama ran them off the field. 1028 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,279 Speaker 4: Didn't They beat the Chiefs a few weeks ago on 1029 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:26,440 Speaker 4: Monday Night Football and we all thought they were turning 1030 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 4: it around. Well, that just fooled everyone into thinking the 1031 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,880 Speaker 4: Jags are better than they really are. But I have 1032 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:35,560 Speaker 4: a way too early prediction, Okay, partially so that if 1033 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,400 Speaker 4: I'm wrong, no one's gonna remember. 1034 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:39,919 Speaker 3: But the tape is rolling by the way right bury. 1035 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:40,319 Speaker 5: Ok. 1036 00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,839 Speaker 4: They go to Las Vegas in week nine after their 1037 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:51,239 Speaker 4: bye this week, I say that Jaguars lose that game. 1038 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:55,839 Speaker 4: That will put the world on notice on just how 1039 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 4: average to below average Trevor Lawrence has been. They need 1040 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,759 Speaker 4: a loss to the Raiders to do that. When the 1041 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,400 Speaker 4: Jaguars missed the playoffs this season after a quick start 1042 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,720 Speaker 4: like they had, I think there were four and one, 1043 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 4: you will see why I had them on the hot 1044 00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 4: seat during their bye week. And Trevor Lawrence may look 1045 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 4: like Tarzan with that hair, but he's playing more like 1046 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 4: not Jane a jag just a guy, just a guy 1047 00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 4: getting paid I don't know, fifty five million a year 1048 00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 4: to be extremely mid People need to wake up to 1049 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:30,880 Speaker 4: this reality in Jacksonville, that's what he is. 1050 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 2: He can do the reverse Samson and cut off his 1051 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:35,000 Speaker 2: hair and he'll actually gain strength and be better. 1052 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:38,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, he had a military cut like that should be 1053 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 4: his punishment. After they lose to the Raiders, they bring 1054 00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,000 Speaker 4: out the big razor for him. 1055 00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:46,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, shave his head. Maybe they should do the Golmer 1056 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 2: pile of treatment. I want him to look like Bruce Bow. 1057 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:52,840 Speaker 2: Do some hazing or something on the barracks. 1058 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:57,480 Speaker 4: Actually, I want permanent hair loss with him. Oh that's 1059 00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 4: what needs to happen. Because I bet on them last week. 1060 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 4: That's what it is, and I failed. 1061 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 2: All the vitriol comes from Adam because Trevor Lawren's basically 1062 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:06,359 Speaker 2: cost him his pick. 1063 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 4: That's what it is. I understand. Do you have a 1064 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 4: more reasonable hot seat? He check here. 1065 00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's unreasonable because he has beginning 1066 00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,360 Speaker 2: some incoming that organization as a whole, and there's a 1067 00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:17,839 Speaker 2: general manager there who did not draft him. So his 1068 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:19,920 Speaker 2: future is very much in jeopardy with that franchise. So 1069 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,280 Speaker 2: we'll see what happens. I don't go with the Falcons 1070 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:25,080 Speaker 2: at home against the Miami Dolphins, so in all, honestly, 1071 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:27,200 Speaker 2: I don't really see them struggling too much against this 1072 00:48:27,239 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 2: Dolphins team that's already as I mentioned last week, and 1073 00:48:29,600 --> 00:48:32,319 Speaker 2: I'll continue to say it. One, two, three, Cancoon They've 1074 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,360 Speaker 2: already checked out. I'm surprised, might be Daniel still has 1075 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:35,279 Speaker 2: a job at this point in time. 1076 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:36,919 Speaker 4: Now, I was gonna say you're late with the hot 1077 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:37,960 Speaker 4: seat for Mike McDaniel. 1078 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm jella no, this on fire at this point 1079 00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 2: in time, I was a huge When you just resign 1080 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:44,560 Speaker 2: and to say I don't need to deal with this. 1081 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 4: It feels like he has in some way. With the 1082 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:52,880 Speaker 4: clothing he's wearing, with the sunglasses he's wearing, he's basically hiding. 1083 00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:54,960 Speaker 3: I mean yeah, in plain sights. 1084 00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:58,239 Speaker 2: Now, we always talk about Adam, how how you win 1085 00:48:58,440 --> 00:48:59,640 Speaker 2: and how you lose matters. 1086 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:01,320 Speaker 3: Is not just a game of wins and losses. 1087 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:03,960 Speaker 2: So I say that about Atlanta because they do have 1088 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 2: some impressive victories. They beat Buffalo last week, they beat 1089 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:10,400 Speaker 2: a fully healthy Minnesota team with JJ McCarthy at quarterback, 1090 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,319 Speaker 2: but being shut out by Carolina no offense, and I 1091 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 2: know they're four and three. Terrible loss. You can't get 1092 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:17,360 Speaker 2: shout out by Carolina. 1093 00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 4: It was in Carolina. 1094 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 3: Though it doesn't matter. 1095 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:20,960 Speaker 4: Panthers don't lose there, I mean clearly, but. 1096 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:21,880 Speaker 3: You can't have that happen. 1097 00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 2: Forty nine ers running a mass unit out there and 1098 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,520 Speaker 2: they get a loss against them this past weekend as well. 1099 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:29,399 Speaker 2: If I'm the Lion's front office, I'm looking at all 1100 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:32,920 Speaker 2: the resources I've put into this team, Pennix, Drake London, 1101 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 2: Bijon Robinson, Kyle Pitts. This offense is supposed to be 1102 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:39,919 Speaker 2: smoking people on a weekend and week out basis, and they, 1103 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:41,759 Speaker 2: for whatever reason, they're not doing that. I know they 1104 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 2: don't have Caleb McGary, one of the best offensive tackles 1105 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:45,760 Speaker 2: in the league. The lost Hi right before the season started. 1106 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 2: I understand that. But it's not as if Bejon has 1107 00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 2: not gotten on track. He's at huge games this year. 1108 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:55,400 Speaker 2: They have just been so woefully inconsistent. It's mind boggling 1109 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 2: for a team that people thought was going to take 1110 00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:58,879 Speaker 2: the next step this year and they just haven't done it. 1111 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:01,720 Speaker 4: I feel like they're one of those teams that only 1112 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 4: plays decent at home. They are not really the problem. 1113 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:06,880 Speaker 3: Is just decent. 1114 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 2: Like again, the amount of offensive talent they put together. 1115 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:13,360 Speaker 2: They spent their entire draft drafting defensive lineman. Some have 1116 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 2: been solid, they've been inconsistent, but you're gonna get that 1117 00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:17,920 Speaker 2: or from young guys at a time. But this is 1118 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:19,440 Speaker 2: a team that's supposed to take the next step, that's 1119 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:20,920 Speaker 2: supposed to compete. Had to have with the Tampa Bay 1120 00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:24,399 Speaker 2: Buccaneers in the NFC South. Hey, look, they're what five 1121 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,240 Speaker 2: hundred at this point in time. The Bucks the granted, 1122 00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:27,520 Speaker 2: I've gotten out to a little bit of a hodter 1123 00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 2: start that I think most people expected, especially considering all 1124 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:32,719 Speaker 2: their injury issues. And look, I'm not saying that Rahie 1125 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:34,359 Speaker 2: Morris is in trouble at all, but just the way 1126 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 2: this season is shaping up. 1127 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 3: I think they won eight games. 1128 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 2: Last year, they were eight to nine if we go 1129 00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,439 Speaker 2: Jeff Fisher eight nine or seven to ten or something 1130 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 2: like that. Again this year, I think the noise is 1131 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 2: gonna start to creep in because if you remember, I'm 1132 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:47,240 Speaker 2: not saying this is gonna happen, but just entertain me here. Okay, 1133 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:49,839 Speaker 2: you do remember that there was one team that had 1134 00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 2: an official interview with Bill Belichick last year. 1135 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:53,920 Speaker 4: Right ooh, that was Atlanta. 1136 00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:56,960 Speaker 2: He was in Chick fil A. Right afterwards, I caught 1137 00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:58,840 Speaker 2: a picture of Bill Belichick out. 1138 00:50:58,640 --> 00:50:59,319 Speaker 3: Of Chick fil A. 1139 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:02,920 Speaker 2: Well in a full all student tie, coming from his 1140 00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 2: interview with Arthur Blank in the Falcons organization. 1141 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,960 Speaker 4: So that interview didn't occur on Sunday, no, not So. 1142 00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that they're going to revisit it, but 1143 00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 2: the fact that there is just mere interest, the fact 1144 00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 2: that things have gone so horribly bad for Bill Belichick 1145 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,840 Speaker 2: at North Carolina. If this does not shape up the 1146 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:20,759 Speaker 2: way that I think people in Atlanta thought it might 1147 00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 2: with all this talent on this roster, and they end 1148 00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 2: up falling short of making the postseason this year, I'm 1149 00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:27,439 Speaker 2: not saying it's gonna happen. I'm not saying it should happen, 1150 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:30,400 Speaker 2: because I do, like Rahee Morris, I do think a 1151 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:32,719 Speaker 2: potential look back at Bill Belichick to be the head 1152 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,000 Speaker 2: coach of this franchise is something that might happen in 1153 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:35,640 Speaker 2: the offseason. 1154 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:38,279 Speaker 4: I don't think that would be a terrible move for 1155 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:42,560 Speaker 4: either side. Really. No, I didn't expect Atlanta to make 1156 00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:44,600 Speaker 4: the playoffs. I gotta be honest. I was pretty high 1157 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:47,160 Speaker 4: on Tampa Bay. I got one right there. A lot 1158 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 4: of people were We talked about Baker Mayfield our first 1159 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:54,440 Speaker 4: show here FNA on FSR and the turnaround he had 1160 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:57,480 Speaker 4: the last two seasons. It's carried over into this year. 1161 00:51:57,520 --> 00:51:59,439 Speaker 4: Why has anyone that surprised they've been good. 1162 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 2: He's the front runner for MVP for a lot of people, 1163 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:02,799 Speaker 2: so certainly understand it. 1164 00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:04,440 Speaker 4: I mean, the NFC South was taken. 1165 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not surprised that the Buccaneers are as good 1166 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:08,239 Speaker 2: as they've I mean, look, do you win all those 1167 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 2: close games by three points? I mean there are a 1168 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:12,480 Speaker 2: couple of bounces away from being you know, five hundred 1169 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:14,359 Speaker 2: if not a game under that's fair, that's but that's 1170 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:15,160 Speaker 2: the NFL for you. 1171 00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:16,960 Speaker 3: So I can't necessarily hope that against them, and. 1172 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 4: They have come through in huge heroic performances thanks to 1173 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:21,399 Speaker 4: Baker Late. 1174 00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:23,480 Speaker 2: I would say myself and I think a lot of 1175 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:25,600 Speaker 2: others expected Atlanta, I guess, to be a little bit 1176 00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:27,640 Speaker 2: better and to challenge them a little bit more than 1177 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:28,759 Speaker 2: they have at this point in time. 1178 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:32,240 Speaker 4: But you called that Niners win over them. Oh yeah, yeah, 1179 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:35,400 Speaker 4: I because you picked up on where Atlanta was versus 1180 00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 4: what you thought they should be, versus why I thought 1181 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:38,080 Speaker 4: they should be. 1182 00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 2: A Look, if they struggle again against a team like Miami, 1183 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,799 Speaker 2: a team they should run off for the field. Now 1184 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:46,799 Speaker 2: we're talking about issues, because here's the thing you mentioned, like, oh, 1185 00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:48,759 Speaker 2: they're decent at home and not good on the road. 1186 00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:51,080 Speaker 2: You need to be great at home and decent on 1187 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 2: the road. Yeah, that's where I think the expectation level 1188 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:55,319 Speaker 2: is that for this team right now, they have not 1189 00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:56,400 Speaker 2: come close to that production. 1190 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:57,959 Speaker 4: Have they played the Saints yet? 1191 00:52:58,800 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 3: I don't believe that they have. 1192 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:02,879 Speaker 4: Well, they got they're playing this weekend. Yeah, oh, well 1193 00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:05,120 Speaker 4: for the first time. So they got two more wins there, 1194 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:10,279 Speaker 4: they get the Panthers at home. There's three wins. I'm 1195 00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:12,440 Speaker 4: just that's how you do things when you're counting up 1196 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:16,200 Speaker 4: the NFC South and what could occur that that's like, okay, 1197 00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 4: there's a couple of bottom dwellers right there. How do 1198 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 4: you take advantage of that? They already blew one game 1199 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:22,719 Speaker 4: against the Carolina Panthers. But oh no, so. 1200 00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,320 Speaker 2: Wait, so bre you're talking about the Saints are placely 1201 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 2: playing the Buccaneers this weekend. 1202 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:27,600 Speaker 3: We were talking about the Falcons. 1203 00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:32,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, bring you're out of your element.

Hello, good evening to everybody. 1264 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:02,400 Speaker 4: Does it annoy you like it does me when everyone 1265 00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:06,120 Speaker 4: is finally like, hey, this guy's takes on USC? No? 1266 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:10,480 Speaker 11: No, I mean, look, I was not a superstar player 1267 00:56:10,520 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 11: at USC. I was known and did stuff in the 1268 00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:18,520 Speaker 11: media and have been doing things in the media for 1269 00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:22,080 Speaker 11: a long time. But I'm not as visible as a 1270 00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:27,720 Speaker 11: lot of people. So when things gain traction or get momentum, 1271 00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:31,719 Speaker 11: it happens every month or so, and I kind of 1272 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,440 Speaker 11: handle it the same as if they don't get traction 1273 00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:37,319 Speaker 11: or get momentum. But I have done a lot more 1274 00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:40,720 Speaker 11: interviews this week because of the USC Notre Dame stuff. 1275 00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:44,479 Speaker 11: There'll be new stories coming up next week and we'll 1276 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 11: move on. But no, it never bothers me because it 1277 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,920 Speaker 11: was a prevalent story. It's been a prevalent story in 1278 00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:54,280 Speaker 11: my mind for a while. Yeah, But because they played 1279 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:57,520 Speaker 11: it was top of mind for people, and the Notre 1280 00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:03,919 Speaker 11: Dame contingency of podcasters and posters and platform notre dame 1281 00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:08,440 Speaker 11: types they caught onto it. So it was interesting. I 1282 00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:11,480 Speaker 11: was being defended by Notre Dame people and attacked by USC. 1283 00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:15,120 Speaker 11: But that's okay, That's what I'm used. 1284 00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 4: Is USC just perpetually in that place where Texas was 1285 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:22,840 Speaker 4: a few years back when we were saying is Texas back? 1286 00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 4: Is that USC? 1287 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 5: Now? 1288 00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,000 Speaker 4: Is USC back? Are we going to be saying that 1289 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 4: for a while? 1290 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 6: I don't. Yeah. 1291 00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:31,320 Speaker 11: I mean there's that guy every year, often in gene 1292 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:34,560 Speaker 11: shorts with a little mustache and a Reggie Bush jersey 1293 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 11: that's a size too small that tells you this is 1294 00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 11: usc'sier foo and you have to deal with it. And 1295 00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:44,240 Speaker 11: everybody says that every year. They throw most of their 1296 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:48,800 Speaker 11: parties in the off season because of recruiting classes and such. 1297 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:52,400 Speaker 11: They have improved, but as the year goes on, you 1298 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 11: have to be physically up to the toll week in 1299 00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 11: and week out. And one of their biggest problems now 1300 00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:02,160 Speaker 11: is defensive and they're linebackers are kind of catchers mits 1301 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,720 Speaker 11: they go side to side pretty well, but they get 1302 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,360 Speaker 11: run over when they face a team that has the 1303 00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:10,480 Speaker 11: will to run them over. And that's going to probably 1304 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:14,560 Speaker 11: keep happening in the Big Ten until they have a 1305 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 11: different coach. They need a coach who cared about the 1306 00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:21,479 Speaker 11: lad image more than Lincoln Riley does. And it's plain 1307 00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:23,959 Speaker 11: and simple, and I've said that for a long time. 1308 00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:29,240 Speaker 11: But should what Lincoln Riley wants to do with USC 1309 00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:30,920 Speaker 11: Notre Dame even be considered? 1310 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:34,480 Speaker 6: Why? Why would that be considered? Is my question? And 1311 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:36,520 Speaker 6: why wouldn't you just do it like you always did? 1312 00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:42,480 Speaker 11: It should be transcendent of the new conference, transcendent of anything. 1313 00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 11: It's a big part of our identity as players and 1314 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:46,640 Speaker 11: all that, and I've set all that stuff. 1315 00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:48,400 Speaker 6: So there'll be games this week. 1316 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,840 Speaker 11: USC's on a bye, they have Nebraska after that, the 1317 00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:53,160 Speaker 11: game they could very well lose, and then the what 1318 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:56,200 Speaker 11: do we do with Lincoln Riley talk starts. It'll start 1319 00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:58,280 Speaker 11: at some point because they're going to lose on the 1320 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 11: road and the Big Ten than they're gonna win because 1321 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:04,840 Speaker 11: that's who they are, that's who they've shown themselves to be. 1322 00:59:05,400 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 11: We're here in the middle of October, and their identity 1323 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 11: has been set. A team that's gonna get run over. 1324 00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:14,360 Speaker 11: If somebody wants to run you over, somebody has the 1325 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:15,080 Speaker 11: will to do it. 1326 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:18,200 Speaker 6: So we'll see how it happens. They're not planning this week, though. 1327 00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:23,400 Speaker 2: Patris Papadegas joining us here FNA on fs R talk 1328 00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 2: a little bit staying in the Big ten about UCLA 1329 00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:28,360 Speaker 2: and the big run that they've had under Tim Skipper, 1330 00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:30,600 Speaker 2: and people are acting like Jerry Neuheisel, which is a 1331 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:32,560 Speaker 2: great story, like he's the head coach, Tim Skipper, the 1332 00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:34,880 Speaker 2: guy that filled in as interim at Fresnel State and 1333 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:37,600 Speaker 2: a pretty damn good job there as well. I don't 1334 00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:40,120 Speaker 2: think most people are expecting them to be Indiana. Now, 1335 00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:42,000 Speaker 2: granted we didn't expect them to be Penn State either, 1336 00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 2: but if they show themselves well, and maybe showing themselves 1337 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,200 Speaker 2: well is covering the spread, which is I think over 1338 00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:49,760 Speaker 2: twenty points again this weekend twenty five, oh twenty five. 1339 00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 3: She's all right, So anyone up? 1340 00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:53,960 Speaker 2: Do you think that Tim Skipper has a legitimate shot 1341 00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,440 Speaker 2: to be part of the consideration for UCLA? And speaking 1342 00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:58,600 Speaker 2: of that, people are throwing out names like James Franklin. 1343 00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:00,840 Speaker 2: Do they even have the money or the wherewithal to 1344 01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:02,320 Speaker 2: even make a run at somebody like that? 1345 01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 11: People just say, I mean, people were talking about even 1346 01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 11: Ben Bolche from the La Times, who's a very legitimate writer, 1347 01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:12,240 Speaker 11: was talking about Lane Kiffen being interestanding. 1348 01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 6: Coming back to La. Yeah, that was my reaction as well. 1349 01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:17,920 Speaker 11: Interesting, but you don't think you'd want to come back 1350 01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:19,960 Speaker 11: to southern California And that's what he said, and I 1351 01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:21,040 Speaker 11: was like, no, not. 1352 01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:24,160 Speaker 3: For a UCLA. I'm going to leave the sec FLA. 1353 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:27,560 Speaker 11: People understand, like none of that stuff happened in a vacuum. 1354 01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:30,800 Speaker 6: They didn't alienate Chip Kelly in private. 1355 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:35,360 Speaker 11: They are not a great bureaucracy to be a part 1356 01:00:35,400 --> 01:00:38,440 Speaker 11: of working in the UC system is mind. 1357 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:40,200 Speaker 6: Numbing and very hard. 1358 01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:43,080 Speaker 11: And they don't pay enough attention to their football program. 1359 01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:46,600 Speaker 11: This has been the knock on UCLA for decades that 1360 01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:48,680 Speaker 11: they want their football program to be the same as 1361 01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 11: the women's gymnastics program, and the truth is you just 1362 01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:56,040 Speaker 11: can't operate like that. But this has been a great story. Obviously. 1363 01:00:56,320 --> 01:00:58,640 Speaker 11: Tim Skipper deserves a heck of a lot of credit. 1364 01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:01,120 Speaker 11: I met him last year when he was taken over 1365 01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:04,640 Speaker 11: for Tedford who got sick at Fresno, and he did 1366 01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:07,800 Speaker 11: a good job. They didn't hire him, and he's a 1367 01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:10,080 Speaker 11: Fresno guy and there was a lot of people that 1368 01:01:10,160 --> 01:01:12,640 Speaker 11: wanted him hired and he didn't get that job. 1369 01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:13,480 Speaker 6: But what does he have. 1370 01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:17,320 Speaker 11: He has experience in being an interim he knows what 1371 01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:20,000 Speaker 11: kind of attitude you have to have when there's a 1372 01:01:20,040 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 11: sudden change in leadership on a football team. Not only that, 1373 01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:27,120 Speaker 11: but he knows how to do it with the coordinators 1374 01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:30,680 Speaker 11: as well. I mean he fired both coordinators basically, and 1375 01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:32,960 Speaker 11: then the team has taken off. They've not lost since 1376 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:37,800 Speaker 11: so after they lost to Northwestern, So we'll see. I 1377 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:39,600 Speaker 11: don't think they're going to win this game. I think 1378 01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:41,520 Speaker 11: this road game is going to be hard, and I 1379 01:01:41,520 --> 01:01:44,680 Speaker 11: think they're probably going to get close to getting beaten 1380 01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:48,120 Speaker 11: by whatever the spread is in the twenties. That doesn't 1381 01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,920 Speaker 11: change that it's been a good story and that they're a. 1382 01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:53,640 Speaker 6: Lot more formidable than people thought. 1383 01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:56,040 Speaker 11: And you can't just pencil in a victory for us 1384 01:01:56,840 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 11: when they play later in the year, especially if Nico 1385 01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:02,840 Speaker 11: is still up and running. But it's been a great story. 1386 01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:06,760 Speaker 11: I do think that the balloon pops this week for 1387 01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:11,160 Speaker 11: UCLA because what Indiana has done being number two in 1388 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:15,400 Speaker 11: the country with Fernando Mendoza playing his way into a Heisman. 1389 01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:20,560 Speaker 11: It's Povey is up there too with Vandy. It's pretty remarkable. 1390 01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:26,920 Speaker 11: And I remember in nineteen ninety five, ninety six, ninety five, 1391 01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:32,200 Speaker 11: USC played Northwestern and the Rose Bowl. The Gary Barnett 1392 01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:37,000 Speaker 11: Northwestern team with Darnell Actrey and Steve Schner and Pat 1393 01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:39,960 Speaker 11: Fitzgerald of course, who's going to get a job in 1394 01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:45,120 Speaker 11: this next cycle as the Mike linebacker and bringing Northwestern 1395 01:02:45,120 --> 01:02:48,920 Speaker 11: to a Rose Bowl was a miracle and no one 1396 01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:49,480 Speaker 11: ever saw it. 1397 01:02:49,600 --> 01:02:51,000 Speaker 6: No one's ever going to see it since. 1398 01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 11: But it's even more impressive what's happening in Indiana with 1399 01:02:55,080 --> 01:02:58,800 Speaker 11: Signetti in such a short time. And they have not 1400 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 11: been kind to lesser teams. They've shown very little mercy 1401 01:03:03,600 --> 01:03:08,919 Speaker 11: as far as scoring points and being demonstrative in the game. 1402 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:09,960 Speaker 6: And I think that's. 1403 01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 11: Probably gonna happen to UCLA in Bloomington, of all places. 1404 01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:15,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, so you bring up Indiana, what Signetti's doing there, 1405 01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:18,240 Speaker 2: you can think of Okay, Brent Key at Georgia Tech. 1406 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:21,800 Speaker 2: They're raiding inside the top ten. You mentioned Pavia, Vanderbert, 1407 01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:23,560 Speaker 2: Well Clark Lee is doing out there. Do you think 1408 01:03:23,560 --> 01:03:26,080 Speaker 2: this new landscape of college football with NIL and the 1409 01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:28,280 Speaker 2: portal being what it is, that we're going to start 1410 01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 2: seeing more and more of these non traditional powerhouses in 1411 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 2: football have stepping up and having great years because the 1412 01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:36,480 Speaker 2: Alabamas and the Georgias can't just stash guys as backups 1413 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:37,080 Speaker 2: for three years. 1414 01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:41,440 Speaker 11: There's more parody and there's less depth on those Alabama 1415 01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 11: Georgia type teams, and a lot of those guys are 1416 01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:45,480 Speaker 11: playing somewhere else. 1417 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:48,720 Speaker 6: Plus, I mean, there's a lot of ways to do this. 1418 01:03:48,960 --> 01:03:53,120 Speaker 11: You have the guys that bring transfers in that are 1419 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:56,600 Speaker 11: very very few and far between because they keep their 1420 01:03:56,600 --> 01:04:00,240 Speaker 11: team together and basically what they pay attention to when 1421 01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:04,520 Speaker 11: the portal is retention, retain the guys you have and 1422 01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:08,680 Speaker 11: continue to develop them and retain your coaches. You know, 1423 01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:11,200 Speaker 11: you look at Boise State, that's kind of one of 1424 01:04:11,240 --> 01:04:14,480 Speaker 11: those situations. And then they bring in transfers just to 1425 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:18,520 Speaker 11: supplement a position group here or there. That's one way 1426 01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:20,760 Speaker 11: to do it. And then it's the kind of transfers 1427 01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:23,880 Speaker 11: that you bring in. You can bring in guys that 1428 01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:28,520 Speaker 11: are on FBS teams that haven't been playing very much, 1429 01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:32,000 Speaker 11: big recruits maybe that haven't found their way onto the 1430 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:35,360 Speaker 11: field to their liking, and you can bring that type 1431 01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:37,080 Speaker 11: of guy in and give them playing time and see 1432 01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:37,800 Speaker 11: how they react. 1433 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:40,880 Speaker 6: Or you can go get all stars. 1434 01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:45,000 Speaker 11: From the FCS level and see how they play at 1435 01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:48,560 Speaker 11: the next level and oftentimes that has been very fruitful 1436 01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,880 Speaker 11: where you can do a little bit of both. It's 1437 01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:54,240 Speaker 11: very interesting. It's not just like, hey, let's bring in 1438 01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:56,600 Speaker 11: transfers and see what happens. There are a lot of 1439 01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:59,800 Speaker 11: teams like that also though, that have you know, sixty 1440 01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:04,400 Speaker 11: seventy new players and the coach is kind of doing 1441 01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:07,000 Speaker 11: it all by the seat of the pants as the 1442 01:05:07,080 --> 01:05:09,720 Speaker 11: year goes on, as they all get to know each other. 1443 01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:12,400 Speaker 11: And some of those teams have had success as well. 1444 01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:15,760 Speaker 11: So there's a lot of different ways to do it. 1445 01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:20,640 Speaker 11: But obviously the portal and the nil has created more parody, 1446 01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:23,080 Speaker 11: and that part of it is fun. I mean, Oregon's 1447 01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:27,960 Speaker 11: still great, Alabama's still great. All these blue bloods still 1448 01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 11: have it going on. A and M looks good. They've 1449 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:33,439 Speaker 11: always been the richest school. But there leaves some room 1450 01:05:33,480 --> 01:05:35,919 Speaker 11: for some others to put it together in their own 1451 01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:37,720 Speaker 11: way and compete, and that's what we've seen. 1452 01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:38,600 Speaker 6: Pee. 1453 01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:43,440 Speaker 4: You mentioned that balloon popping for UCLA most likely this weekend. Well, 1454 01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:46,320 Speaker 4: the guy with the poison dart, Kurt Signetti. What does 1455 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:49,680 Speaker 4: he do that separates him from other coaches to have 1456 01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:50,240 Speaker 4: this round? 1457 01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:53,680 Speaker 6: No, he's a chap ass I don't know. 1458 01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:57,040 Speaker 11: I mean, I've only seen him interviewed and been up 1459 01:05:57,040 --> 01:05:58,560 Speaker 11: close to him maybe once or twice. 1460 01:05:58,760 --> 01:05:59,520 Speaker 6: I don't know him well. 1461 01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:02,600 Speaker 11: I've never done on an Indiana game ever in my life, 1462 01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:05,280 Speaker 11: which is kind of odd, but it's just never happened, 1463 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:10,880 Speaker 11: So I don't know. He's Kurt. He has a way 1464 01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:14,680 Speaker 11: about him. I do think that to a certain degree. 1465 01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:18,600 Speaker 11: A lot of these coaches, even Kaylin de boor Matt 1466 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:22,400 Speaker 11: Campbell who came from Mount Union, all of these guys 1467 01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:25,680 Speaker 11: that came from smaller places that used to have to 1468 01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:28,720 Speaker 11: worry about the laundry getting done and used to have 1469 01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:30,480 Speaker 11: to worry about when the buses are going to show 1470 01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:31,280 Speaker 11: up for the kids. 1471 01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:33,400 Speaker 6: A lot of these coaches. 1472 01:06:34,280 --> 01:06:38,960 Speaker 11: In the modern times where everybody's making money and there's 1473 01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:42,000 Speaker 11: a lot being said, and these young people have handlers, 1474 01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:46,320 Speaker 11: and you're negotiating with handlers for an eighteen year old 1475 01:06:46,440 --> 01:06:50,200 Speaker 11: kid who's most probably being taken advantage of. They're taking 1476 01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:53,760 Speaker 11: a much bigger percentage than say an NFL agent would 1477 01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:58,720 Speaker 11: or something like that. It's these really straightforward guys that 1478 01:06:58,800 --> 01:07:03,360 Speaker 11: seem to be resonating the most with today's player, like 1479 01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:08,040 Speaker 11: the Steve Sarkisians who come out smiling and hot recruiting 1480 01:07:08,160 --> 01:07:11,760 Speaker 11: and Lamborghinis and all the money that Texas has to offer. 1481 01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:15,680 Speaker 11: Maybe this isn't their time as much as it is 1482 01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:20,480 Speaker 11: a time for a guy like Signetti who is totally 1483 01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:23,919 Speaker 11: honest at all times, whether it rubs people the wrong 1484 01:07:23,960 --> 01:07:27,080 Speaker 11: way or not. Because there's so much flash and extra 1485 01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:30,160 Speaker 11: meat in college football now, with the money being made 1486 01:07:30,200 --> 01:07:32,320 Speaker 11: and the portal being open and all those different things, 1487 01:07:32,640 --> 01:07:37,440 Speaker 11: maybe guys like Signetti, who you know are completely and 1488 01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:39,920 Speaker 11: totally straightforward, they are going to tell you exactly what 1489 01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:43,040 Speaker 11: they think. Maybe they're the ones that the players seem 1490 01:07:43,080 --> 01:07:44,160 Speaker 11: to be gravitating towards. 1491 01:07:44,200 --> 01:07:44,400 Speaker 6: More. 1492 01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:47,720 Speaker 2: Fox and FS one football analyst Petros Popaegos joining us 1493 01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:51,040 Speaker 2: here Fox Football Saturday, Kevin Figures and Adam Auslin. You 1494 01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:53,160 Speaker 2: work a lot of Big Twelve games for FS one 1495 01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:55,040 Speaker 2: and Fox, and that shaped out to be one of 1496 01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:58,640 Speaker 2: the most competitive conferences in college football this year. There's 1497 01:07:58,680 --> 01:08:01,600 Speaker 2: a big one this weekend between bo in Iowa State. 1498 01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:03,840 Speaker 2: Just based on what you've seen. I know you've seen Cincinnati, 1499 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:06,080 Speaker 2: you've seen Iowa State this year. Houston and Arizona State 1500 01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:08,400 Speaker 2: another big one as well. If you're looking at the 1501 01:08:08,440 --> 01:08:10,360 Speaker 2: Big Twelve right now do you have a favorite? Is 1502 01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:12,560 Speaker 2: it still BYU considering they're undefeated because they have a 1503 01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:13,720 Speaker 2: tough schedule down the stretch. 1504 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,080 Speaker 11: Yeah, and they have a freshman quarterback who I love 1505 01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:19,200 Speaker 11: bat Hackmeyer. But at some point your freshman quarterback, most 1506 01:08:19,280 --> 01:08:22,599 Speaker 11: likely on the road, is going to play like a freshman. 1507 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 11: And this could be the week at Jack Trice and 1508 01:08:26,800 --> 01:08:30,519 Speaker 11: I think a Abu Sama is up. Their running backs 1509 01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:34,639 Speaker 11: are back for this one, and I really like Rocko. 1510 01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:38,439 Speaker 11: He's been great, so I like the Clones. But I 1511 01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:42,400 Speaker 11: think to answer your question, I think there's really very 1512 01:08:42,439 --> 01:08:45,759 Speaker 11: little separation between almost all the teams in the Big twelve, 1513 01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 11: Like it is really hard to see who's separated from 1514 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:53,679 Speaker 11: Obviously Texas Tech has the big payroll, and they lost 1515 01:08:53,720 --> 01:08:56,960 Speaker 11: their quarterback, and usually it's like your quarterback, if your 1516 01:08:57,040 --> 01:09:01,679 Speaker 11: quarterback play is really mature and limits stakes, that's usually 1517 01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:06,040 Speaker 11: the difference in a game. Houston is well coached, they're awesome, 1518 01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:07,840 Speaker 11: sadder fields having a great year. 1519 01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,160 Speaker 6: They have an awesome offensive line and. 1520 01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:13,439 Speaker 11: A really good quarterback, and they're improved on the perimeter 1521 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:17,760 Speaker 11: at Cincinnati, And I really do think there's not a 1522 01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:20,559 Speaker 11: lot of separation between any of these teams. Other than 1523 01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:24,479 Speaker 11: how mature is your quarterback? Is can he run? And 1524 01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:28,559 Speaker 11: how well did he play on Saturday? That's really I mean, 1525 01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:31,400 Speaker 11: there is a couple teams that aren't competing that great, 1526 01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:37,120 Speaker 11: but most everybody is beatable and can beat you in 1527 01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:38,960 Speaker 11: the Big twelve and it's been fun to watch. 1528 01:09:39,800 --> 01:09:42,439 Speaker 4: Pe I mentioned Joel Klad a little bit earlier and 1529 01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:45,000 Speaker 4: he was bringing up what he's hearing behind the scenes 1530 01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:47,800 Speaker 4: with the next playoff format and they're talking about twenty 1531 01:09:47,880 --> 01:09:51,400 Speaker 4: four teams. Can't we just sit in this space right 1532 01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:54,599 Speaker 4: now of twelve teams? It seems like a decent sweet spot. 1533 01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:57,840 Speaker 4: The regular season still matters, and we're not talking about 1534 01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:00,519 Speaker 4: who got snub from the playoff? Like why we just 1535 01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:03,200 Speaker 4: see how this plays out for a couple of years. 1536 01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:07,040 Speaker 11: I don't know. It's only going to get bigger. The 1537 01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:09,599 Speaker 11: playoff is only going to grow. And the answer as 1538 01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:11,920 Speaker 11: to why is why did the PAC ten go away? 1539 01:10:12,160 --> 01:10:12,479 Speaker 4: Money? 1540 01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:15,920 Speaker 11: Why did the PAC twelve go away? Why do TV 1541 01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:19,800 Speaker 11: networks control everything? Why do we go When you used 1542 01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:22,400 Speaker 11: to travel on the PAC twelve, the average flight time 1543 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:25,120 Speaker 11: is like an hour and a half. Now the East 1544 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:27,719 Speaker 11: Coast teams are having trouble going all the way across 1545 01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:29,880 Speaker 11: the country and playing in West Coast stadiums, and of 1546 01:10:29,880 --> 01:10:34,720 Speaker 11: course vice versa. So it's all about the money, and 1547 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:37,800 Speaker 11: no one is complaining about the money they're making. They're 1548 01:10:37,840 --> 01:10:42,479 Speaker 11: complaining about logistics and things like that. So that's your answer. 1549 01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:46,040 Speaker 11: There is no sweet spot. It's controlled and run outside 1550 01:10:46,080 --> 01:10:49,880 Speaker 11: of the NCAA, which isn't exactly a great organization either. 1551 01:10:50,479 --> 01:10:53,080 Speaker 11: And this is the world we live in. These are 1552 01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 11: the hands we're given. 1553 01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:55,639 Speaker 4: At this point. 1554 01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:57,840 Speaker 2: Because we were talking about UCLA earlier and I just 1555 01:10:57,840 --> 01:11:00,360 Speaker 2: popped up in my head, So, Pap, is your had 1556 01:11:00,400 --> 01:11:01,560 Speaker 2: that fall out from Northwestern? 1557 01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:04,360 Speaker 3: They had the lawsuit, they reached a settlement. He's out there. 1558 01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:06,360 Speaker 2: Is he someone that would be in play for a 1559 01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:09,439 Speaker 2: school like a UCLA or is he more big game hunting, 1560 01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:10,760 Speaker 2: more like a Penn State sort of job. 1561 01:11:10,840 --> 01:11:13,640 Speaker 11: I'm not sure, but everybody should talk to him and 1562 01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 11: see what he's willing to do and for what I 1563 01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:20,120 Speaker 11: think he's a great coach, and I think whoever hires 1564 01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:22,360 Speaker 11: him would have a great I think us he should 1565 01:11:22,360 --> 01:11:24,720 Speaker 11: have hired him years ago, lock him in a room 1566 01:11:24,760 --> 01:11:26,519 Speaker 11: and don't let him out until he takes a job. 1567 01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:28,479 Speaker 6: But we'll see. 1568 01:11:28,920 --> 01:11:31,800 Speaker 11: I don't know, there's that big The whole thing got 1569 01:11:31,840 --> 01:11:34,439 Speaker 11: twisted on its neck, and partially because of what you're 1570 01:11:34,439 --> 01:11:38,080 Speaker 11: talking about the college football Playoff being twelve team. Maybe 1571 01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:40,960 Speaker 11: if it's twenty four it's different. But if you know 1572 01:11:41,080 --> 01:11:44,400 Speaker 11: in October or September and you're a blue blood or 1573 01:11:44,400 --> 01:11:47,000 Speaker 11: a program with high expectations that you're not making the 1574 01:11:47,040 --> 01:11:50,360 Speaker 11: playoff this year, you fire the coach and start scrambling 1575 01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:53,200 Speaker 11: to get something figured out so you don't have to 1576 01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:55,519 Speaker 11: go through all the machinations of it. 1577 01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:58,519 Speaker 6: While portal's open and the end of the year. 1578 01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:01,919 Speaker 11: I'm not exactly sure everybody's kind of kind of fumbling 1579 01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:03,760 Speaker 11: around in a dark room because a lot of this 1580 01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:07,000 Speaker 11: stuff is new and they just changed the portal parameters. 1581 01:12:07,479 --> 01:12:11,679 Speaker 11: But I do think that the Penn State job coming 1582 01:12:11,720 --> 01:12:14,720 Speaker 11: open probably led to a lot more of this to 1583 01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:18,519 Speaker 11: where we see a power for guy getting fired almost 1584 01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:21,800 Speaker 11: every week. It was napier this last week and might 1585 01:12:21,960 --> 01:12:23,120 Speaker 11: might happen again this week. 1586 01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:24,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, Norville, I guess they said they're going to wait 1587 01:12:24,880 --> 01:12:26,240 Speaker 2: until the end of the season and see what happen 1588 01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:28,040 Speaker 2: to now John Smith. 1589 01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:32,840 Speaker 6: At Michigan State, Brian Kelly could be in Yeah. 1590 01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:34,240 Speaker 11: You know, all it takes is one guy to say, 1591 01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:36,280 Speaker 11: here's my ninety million dollars, take it away. 1592 01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:37,720 Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing, and I want to get your 1593 01:12:37,760 --> 01:12:39,599 Speaker 2: take on that too before we let you go too, 1594 01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:41,599 Speaker 2: because about I'm sure you saw what Nick Saban said 1595 01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:43,640 Speaker 2: this week, and like the boosters are controlling everything, but 1596 01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:46,320 Speaker 2: it's different now now that they're controlling the coaches who 1597 01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:48,080 Speaker 2: get hired and fired, and they're really if they're willing 1598 01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:49,360 Speaker 2: to wide a check to let a guy like a 1599 01:12:49,439 --> 01:12:52,120 Speaker 2: James Franklin, you know, someone like that of that caliber 1600 01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:54,160 Speaker 2: go and but the problem is if they're going to 1601 01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:55,760 Speaker 2: pay to let him go and then pay money to 1602 01:12:55,760 --> 01:12:57,080 Speaker 2: bring a new guy in, they're going to want to 1603 01:12:57,080 --> 01:13:00,040 Speaker 2: have say and exactly what happens with that program. And 1604 01:13:00,120 --> 01:13:02,040 Speaker 2: it's not very different from how it's always been. 1605 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:04,840 Speaker 11: Yeah, why do you think Lane Kiffin gets fired on 1606 01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:08,559 Speaker 11: a tarmac because somebody told you that he couldn't go 1607 01:13:08,680 --> 01:13:09,559 Speaker 11: back into the building. 1608 01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:11,960 Speaker 6: Was that the president of the school? 1609 01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:12,080 Speaker 9: No? 1610 01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:15,440 Speaker 11: Was it an ad No, those people would be more reasonable. 1611 01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:19,200 Speaker 11: It's a crazy booster that you're trying to appease. And 1612 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:22,639 Speaker 11: that's I mean, that's been the rub in college football 1613 01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:26,880 Speaker 11: for many, many years and they're still making a billion 1614 01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:29,759 Speaker 11: dollars on TV, but they're still taking millions and millions 1615 01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:32,720 Speaker 11: of dollars from donors. And if you do that and 1616 01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:34,320 Speaker 11: you put them on your plane and you act like 1617 01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 11: your BFFs, at some point they're going to want to 1618 01:13:37,360 --> 01:13:39,320 Speaker 11: have something to say to show how powerful they are, 1619 01:13:39,400 --> 01:13:43,000 Speaker 11: because they are because of their money. Like we just said, so, 1620 01:13:43,720 --> 01:13:46,479 Speaker 11: I mean Saban's talking. Well, maybe it's worse than it's 1621 01:13:46,479 --> 01:13:50,320 Speaker 11: ever been, but it's certainly not dissimilar to how it's 1622 01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:52,040 Speaker 11: always been in that regard. 1623 01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:56,360 Speaker 4: In that regard, he is Petros Papadakis. Coincidence that he's 1624 01:13:56,400 --> 01:13:58,720 Speaker 4: got a week off the same time that USC has 1625 01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:01,960 Speaker 4: a week off, I don't know, but he is spouting 1626 01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:04,920 Speaker 4: off on a five to seventy LA sports and giving 1627 01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:08,840 Speaker 4: not hot takes, realistic takes that some just didn't know 1628 01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:11,320 Speaker 4: about for a while until it became news this past 1629 01:14:11,360 --> 01:14:13,640 Speaker 4: week about USC and how bad things have been for 1630 01:14:13,680 --> 01:14:16,080 Speaker 4: over a decade. Pete, thanks for doing this here on 1631 01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:17,040 Speaker 4: f and A on FSR. 1632 01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:19,519 Speaker 6: Yeah, you guys can blame Pete Carroll. 1633 01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:23,240 Speaker 11: He made him really successful, but the lack of institutional 1634 01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:26,880 Speaker 11: control and what happened afterwards hiring Kippin and Sark, who 1635 01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:29,320 Speaker 11: were both too immature for the job at the time, 1636 01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:32,920 Speaker 11: and then the athletic directors and the Helton era. 1637 01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:35,160 Speaker 6: It's been a real mess. And then you bring in 1638 01:14:35,200 --> 01:14:37,040 Speaker 6: an air raid guy to fix it. Awesome. 1639 01:14:37,560 --> 01:14:39,920 Speaker 4: You know things aren't going well with the Raiders. Maybe 1640 01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:42,479 Speaker 4: he comes back to us. Okay, I'm done. 1641 01:14:42,760 --> 01:14:46,160 Speaker 2: I don't think so, Thanks p Thank you, p Bye guy. 1642 01:14:46,360 --> 01:14:51,960 Speaker 2: All right, appreciated Petros. Petros, papenegas what he Carrol can't return. 1643 01:14:52,360 --> 01:14:54,720 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess he could, but probably didn't leave 1644 01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:57,160 Speaker 2: with the greatest taste in his mouth of her. 1645 01:14:57,000 --> 01:14:57,679 Speaker 3: For the program. 1646 01:14:57,960 --> 01:15:00,880 Speaker 4: But they might get desperate sanctions and all that. It 1647 01:15:00,960 --> 01:15:03,559 Speaker 4: always works when you reach back to the glory days, 1648 01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:04,760 Speaker 4: doesn't it always works? 1649 01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:05,000 Speaker 6: Right. 1650 01:15:05,120 --> 01:15:06,799 Speaker 4: It's just like with the Raiders in our shell. 1651 01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:08,920 Speaker 2: Just like USC with John Robinson. Petricks can tell you 1652 01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:10,200 Speaker 2: about that. That worked out? 1653 01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:11,479 Speaker 3: Well, didn't it?

Now, before you jump 1676 01:16:06,560 --> 01:16:09,240 Speaker 2: on me, at him, because I know I had this 1677 01:16:09,280 --> 01:16:11,200 Speaker 2: as my trap game tap a couple of weeks ago 1678 01:16:11,240 --> 01:16:13,599 Speaker 2: when these two teams played and the Colts ran them 1679 01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:15,920 Speaker 2: off the field, and Tennessee. 1680 01:16:15,520 --> 01:16:17,760 Speaker 4: I forgot about that actually happened. So why are they 1681 01:16:17,800 --> 01:16:19,679 Speaker 4: playing so close together already? 1682 01:16:19,760 --> 01:16:21,479 Speaker 2: I don't know the Giants and Eagles in that same 1683 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:23,880 Speaker 2: situation as well. I don't understand how the scheduling quark 1684 01:16:23,880 --> 01:16:25,120 Speaker 2: works when it comes to that sort. 1685 01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:27,320 Speaker 4: Of Titans are just like, let's get it over with now. 1686 01:16:27,439 --> 01:16:29,679 Speaker 2: Consider the fact that Titans will be without the top receiver, 1687 01:16:29,760 --> 01:16:32,240 Speaker 2: Calvin Ridley was ruled out officially on Thursday, so he's 1688 01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:34,000 Speaker 2: not going to play. They're one of the best defensive 1689 01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:36,800 Speaker 2: players in the entire league. Jeffrey Simmons also going to 1690 01:16:36,840 --> 01:16:40,400 Speaker 2: be out for the Titans. All concerning So what makes 1691 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:42,679 Speaker 2: this weekend different from the first time these teams met. 1692 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:44,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, all of the. 1693 01:16:44,439 --> 01:16:45,840 Speaker 3: Fact that the Titans have an interim coach. 1694 01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:48,200 Speaker 2: Not much, to be honest with you, other than the 1695 01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:51,240 Speaker 2: fact that this is the NFL and crazy things happen 1696 01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:52,960 Speaker 2: on a weekend week out basis. And look, I know 1697 01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:55,040 Speaker 2: these guys are professional athletes and it's their job to 1698 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:55,879 Speaker 2: play hard every. 1699 01:16:55,680 --> 01:16:57,320 Speaker 3: Week, but they are human too. 1700 01:16:57,880 --> 01:16:59,599 Speaker 2: Sometimes you take your foot off the gas a little 1701 01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:02,360 Speaker 2: bit you don't expect to be challenged as much, while 1702 01:17:02,360 --> 01:17:04,200 Speaker 2: also knowing you have a game against a good, physical 1703 01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:07,439 Speaker 2: Steelers team coming up next weekend. So I'm actually resting 1704 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:09,760 Speaker 2: on the fact that the Colts probably take their foot 1705 01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:11,360 Speaker 2: off the gas and no, they should run the Titans 1706 01:17:11,400 --> 01:17:13,040 Speaker 2: off the field by fifty points this weekend. 1707 01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:14,880 Speaker 3: I don't think that's gonna happen. 1708 01:17:14,880 --> 01:17:16,400 Speaker 2: I think the Titans actually find a way to keep 1709 01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:18,800 Speaker 2: this thing close to spike conventional wisdom, despite the points break, 1710 01:17:18,800 --> 01:17:20,320 Speaker 2: which I believe is at fourteen and a half at 1711 01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:20,880 Speaker 2: last check. 1712 01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:21,280 Speaker 4: That's it. 1713 01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:24,200 Speaker 3: I think the Titans actually have some for the Colts. 1714 01:17:24,200 --> 01:17:24,880 Speaker 3: They don't beat them. 1715 01:17:24,880 --> 01:17:27,160 Speaker 2: I'm not going that insane, They're not crazy, but I 1716 01:17:27,160 --> 01:17:28,720 Speaker 2: do think the Titans keep this game a little bit 1717 01:17:28,720 --> 01:17:30,080 Speaker 2: closer than people might expect. 1718 01:17:30,320 --> 01:17:33,720 Speaker 4: All Right, I'm going with my trap game. Tap Buffalo's 1719 01:17:33,720 --> 01:17:36,280 Speaker 4: minus seven on the road in Carolina, we are against 1720 01:17:36,280 --> 01:17:39,800 Speaker 4: my undefeated Panthers. Oh, you're okay at home at Bank 1721 01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:40,799 Speaker 4: of America Stadium. 1722 01:17:40,840 --> 01:17:42,400 Speaker 3: So when they're on the road, they're not your Panthers. 1723 01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:44,439 Speaker 4: That how works? Oh, if they're playing the Jets, they are. 1724 01:17:45,120 --> 01:17:45,280 Speaker 6: Now. 1725 01:17:45,320 --> 01:17:47,080 Speaker 4: I know the Bills are coming off a bye week, 1726 01:17:47,240 --> 01:17:49,080 Speaker 4: they lost two in a row, and they are my 1727 01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:51,880 Speaker 4: Super Bowl selection out of the AFC. But you better 1728 01:17:51,920 --> 01:17:54,840 Speaker 4: put some respect on this Panthers team. I'm telling you 1729 01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:59,040 Speaker 4: because I did pick them to make the playoffs. I 1730 01:17:59,040 --> 01:18:01,000 Speaker 4: don't know if you guys knew this, but this was 1731 01:18:01,040 --> 01:18:06,960 Speaker 4: on my bold Bold prediction section of our FSR predictions 1732 01:18:06,960 --> 01:18:11,760 Speaker 4: before the season started. So this Panthers defense, I'll have 1733 01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:13,920 Speaker 4: you know, just went to New Jersey, beat up on 1734 01:18:13,960 --> 01:18:16,879 Speaker 4: the Jets so bad they got a former number eleven 1735 01:18:16,960 --> 01:18:20,040 Speaker 4: pick in the draft benched. And not just that, even 1736 01:18:20,080 --> 01:18:22,519 Speaker 4: their owner Woody Johnson made sure to let his feelings 1737 01:18:22,600 --> 01:18:23,920 Speaker 4: be known about justin Fields. 1738 01:18:24,040 --> 01:18:24,839 Speaker 3: I mean, he's taking. 1739 01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 4: What have you heard, really in owner throw his QB 1740 01:18:31,320 --> 01:18:34,000 Speaker 4: under the bus like that outside of you know, Woody 1741 01:18:34,080 --> 01:18:38,120 Speaker 4: Johnson reportedly told Mike White he effing sucks just last 1742 01:18:38,200 --> 01:18:40,120 Speaker 4: year in the locker room postgame. 1743 01:18:40,160 --> 01:18:41,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, Woody Johnson not wanted to hold his tongue, just 1744 01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:43,800 Speaker 2: like the Panthers' owner not want to hold his finger 1745 01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:45,400 Speaker 2: when interacting with fans. 1746 01:18:45,520 --> 01:18:49,920 Speaker 4: David Tepper very calm, very measured when he threw that 1747 01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:52,479 Speaker 4: drink in the fans face, Kevin, he was just sharing 1748 01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:56,120 Speaker 4: the wealth because he had top shelf alcohol in that 1749 01:18:56,320 --> 01:18:58,280 Speaker 4: drink of his he was he was throwing it at 1750 01:18:58,280 --> 01:18:58,759 Speaker 4: the peasants. 1751 01:18:58,760 --> 01:19:01,160 Speaker 3: That's a peasant so close as you'll ever get to 1752 01:19:01,160 --> 01:19:01,639 Speaker 3: some pappy. 1753 01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:04,320 Speaker 4: I'm starting to see the vision with this Panthers team, 1754 01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:06,760 Speaker 4: just like Bryce Young is starting to see over the 1755 01:19:06,800 --> 01:19:09,760 Speaker 4: offensive line, because when you're four and three now you 1756 01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:12,160 Speaker 4: feel like you're two feet taller, which would put him 1757 01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:15,280 Speaker 4: just under six feet. I think the Panthers could give 1758 01:19:15,320 --> 01:19:18,200 Speaker 4: the Bills a run for their money, though, in Charlotte, 1759 01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:21,519 Speaker 4: a place where the late great Kevin Green and Sam 1760 01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:26,160 Speaker 4: Mills once patrolled the turf defensively. Just because they're two 1761 01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:29,799 Speaker 4: and six all time against the Bills doesn't mean anything. 1762 01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:33,240 Speaker 4: They haven't played them since twenty twenty one. This Panthers 1763 01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:37,600 Speaker 4: team is different. I think maybe. 1764 01:19:37,479 --> 01:19:38,800 Speaker 3: Real vote of confidence there. 1765 01:19:38,880 --> 01:19:43,880 Speaker 4: Probably not, but I don't know. I'm feeling like I 1766 01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:45,960 Speaker 4: got to puff my chest out a little bit right 1767 01:19:45,960 --> 01:19:47,920 Speaker 4: now because we're over five hundred. 1768 01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:49,400 Speaker 1: Like great kid, don't get cocky. 1769 01:19:49,520 --> 01:19:51,680 Speaker 3: I can't help myself so that we're calling it we 1770 01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:52,639 Speaker 3: at this point too. 1771 01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:56,479 Speaker 4: Oh my Panthers. My part is together. Yeah, I've been 1772 01:19:56,520 --> 01:19:59,240 Speaker 4: through everything with them. I'm sure I deserve this. 1773 01:19:59,520 --> 01:20:01,519 Speaker 3: You are right there in the trenches, right next to 1774 01:20:01,560 --> 01:20:02,080 Speaker 3: Mike Rucker. 1775 01:20:02,160 --> 01:20:04,760 Speaker 4: Right hey, let me tell you something. We still got 1776 01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:09,160 Speaker 4: two games left against the Saints, and that means two 1777 01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:12,479 Speaker 4: more wins right there. So basically we're not four and three, 1778 01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:13,559 Speaker 4: we're six and three. 1779 01:20:13,600 --> 01:20:15,519 Speaker 3: You're already counting that as a w right now, I 1780 01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:16,280 Speaker 3: am I'm with you. 1781 01:20:16,320 --> 01:20:17,560 Speaker 2: By the way, I do think they can give the 1782 01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:19,519 Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills a little bit of trouble. Oh yeah, I 1783 01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:21,280 Speaker 2: can see a Buffalo is not playing well at all, 1784 01:20:21,320 --> 01:20:23,120 Speaker 2: and you mentioned Carolina while they play at home. I 1785 01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:25,559 Speaker 2: can absolutely see that being a potential upset. 1786 01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:28,280 Speaker 4: A bye week could be Rest versus Rust More NFL 1787 01:20:28,360 --> 01:20:30,720 Speaker 4: six pack coming up.

I'm 1801 01:21:05,840 --> 01:21:08,080 Speaker 4: I can keep it to myself.

Renee? Renee, You're on the air, Hello, 1810 01:21:31,320 --> 01:21:31,960 Speaker 4: wild Cardlos. 1811 01:21:32,320 --> 01:21:33,519 Speaker 12: This is Renee over from St. 1812 01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:33,760 Speaker 5: Paul. 1813 01:21:34,000 --> 01:21:35,880 Speaker 11: I just want to talk about the NBA. 1814 01:21:36,400 --> 01:21:38,599 Speaker 7: Really makes me think about Altani. 1815 01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:40,080 Speaker 12: I really think he was in. 1816 01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:41,880 Speaker 2: The to now and it really proves it, otherwise that 1817 01:21:42,479 --> 01:21:44,040 Speaker 2: I would have been after him too. 1818 01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:47,720 Speaker 4: Well, they got his translator and said, right, so wait, 1819 01:21:47,920 --> 01:21:50,080 Speaker 4: this whole time you thought that he was so even 1820 01:21:50,200 --> 01:21:52,760 Speaker 4: after the fallout, you thought that the scapegoat was his 1821 01:21:53,400 --> 01:21:54,280 Speaker 4: was his translator. 1822 01:21:54,280 --> 01:21:56,000 Speaker 3: You thought that Altani was still was part of the 1823 01:21:56,479 --> 01:21:56,880 Speaker 3: entire thing. 1824 01:21:57,680 --> 01:21:58,120 Speaker 12: I think. 1825 01:21:58,160 --> 01:22:01,519 Speaker 2: So, you know, you really don't notice that two million 1826 01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:03,880 Speaker 2: dollars are missing. I would notice it right away. 1827 01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:06,679 Speaker 4: I mean, I think that's a legitimate argument, legitimate claim. 1828 01:22:07,040 --> 01:22:11,160 Speaker 4: He's got two million in the couch cushions, also legitimate. Yes, 1829 01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:14,200 Speaker 4: he's got his deal with New Balance and then the Dodgers, 1830 01:22:14,800 --> 01:22:17,559 Speaker 4: the fact that he could defer all that money tells 1831 01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:18,519 Speaker 4: that he's OK. 1832 01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:20,920 Speaker 2: Because even the argument people tried to make him Renee 1833 01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:23,120 Speaker 2: thanks for the call, man, appreciate it. The argument that 1834 01:22:23,160 --> 01:22:24,920 Speaker 2: people tried to make is like, well, you know, he 1835 01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:27,160 Speaker 2: was on his rookie deal the entire time with the Angels, 1836 01:22:27,200 --> 01:22:28,880 Speaker 2: so he never really made that much money. But to 1837 01:22:28,920 --> 01:22:31,960 Speaker 2: your point, God knows how many endorsements he had in Japan. 1838 01:22:32,240 --> 01:22:34,920 Speaker 2: He had new balance here domestically and a bunch of 1839 01:22:34,960 --> 01:22:37,240 Speaker 2: other revenue he could not could be I can almost 1840 01:22:37,240 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 2: guarantee he's one of those athletes who just probably never 1841 01:22:39,400 --> 01:22:41,360 Speaker 2: even spent the dime of the money he actually made 1842 01:22:41,360 --> 01:22:43,320 Speaker 2: on the field. He just spent his endorsement money and 1843 01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:44,240 Speaker 2: invested everything else. 1844 01:22:44,400 --> 01:22:47,000 Speaker 4: Maybe he went big on bitcoin too, when two years 1845 01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:48,920 Speaker 4: ago was like aet twenty grand and now it's at 1846 01:22:48,920 --> 01:22:52,280 Speaker 4: one hundred and ten. Right, all right, Uh, we're going 1847 01:22:52,320 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 4: big with the rest of our NFL six pack. We 1848 01:22:55,400 --> 01:22:57,960 Speaker 4: still have four more categories. Mark what's next here? 1849 01:22:58,360 --> 01:22:59,920 Speaker 1: Beer goggles, Kate Kevin? 1850 01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:01,000 Speaker 4: Yes, what you got here? 1851 01:23:01,040 --> 01:23:01,599 Speaker 6: What game? 1852 01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:04,200 Speaker 4: That shouldn't look so good? But you put on the 1853 01:23:04,200 --> 01:23:06,240 Speaker 4: beer goggles and all of a sudden you're like, you know, 1854 01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:07,679 Speaker 4: what This is a great matchup. 1855 01:23:07,800 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 2: I'm going to the Saints at home against the Buccaneers 1856 01:23:10,439 --> 01:23:11,000 Speaker 2: Breeze Bucks. 1857 01:23:11,080 --> 01:23:12,639 Speaker 3: On paper, it looks like a complete blowout. 1858 01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:15,519 Speaker 2: We talked about how great the Buccaneers are, Super Bowl contender, 1859 01:23:15,560 --> 01:23:19,920 Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield, potential MVP candidate, I think the front runner 1860 01:23:20,160 --> 01:23:21,920 Speaker 2: for a lot of people right now. The issue with 1861 01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:25,120 Speaker 2: Tampa Bay, specifically the injury bug, and it's biting him 1862 01:23:25,120 --> 01:23:28,280 Speaker 2: pretty hard right now. So Mike Evans was out, came back, 1863 01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:31,280 Speaker 2: now broke his collarbone. They say they hope he's back 1864 01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:32,760 Speaker 2: for the end of the season, but at this point 1865 01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:34,760 Speaker 2: in time, I wouldn't be very optimistic about that. With 1866 01:23:34,840 --> 01:23:37,599 Speaker 2: an injury like that, you still don't have Chris Godwin, 1867 01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:42,000 Speaker 2: mcmillian's out, Bucky Irving is still out, thankfully, Abuka is 1868 01:23:42,040 --> 01:23:44,519 Speaker 2: back and somewhat healthy. But the problem is they just 1869 01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:46,680 Speaker 2: don't have a lot else at this skill position. So 1870 01:23:46,720 --> 01:23:49,320 Speaker 2: now you're facing a Saints team that's in a rebuild 1871 01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:51,800 Speaker 2: but has been pretty competitive in most of the games 1872 01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:53,720 Speaker 2: they've played this year. I know it hasn't necessarily shown 1873 01:23:53,760 --> 01:23:56,240 Speaker 2: and wins and losses, and I know moral victories don't 1874 01:23:56,280 --> 01:23:58,280 Speaker 2: count for much, but I do think that team is 1875 01:23:58,280 --> 01:24:00,519 Speaker 2: playing pretty damn hard for Kellen Moore. And even though 1876 01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:04,400 Speaker 2: I think Spencer Rattler is a backup at best, you shouldn't. 1877 01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:05,240 Speaker 3: Be starting for an NFL team. 1878 01:24:05,320 --> 01:24:08,720 Speaker 2: Okay, he's actually showed himself pretty well all things considered. 1879 01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:11,960 Speaker 2: So divisional games just tend to be tough in general. 1880 01:24:13,040 --> 01:24:14,600 Speaker 2: And now that Tampa Bay has been brought down to 1881 01:24:14,640 --> 01:24:18,320 Speaker 2: pick or two based on their injury situation, I do 1882 01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:20,320 Speaker 2: think this has to put to the opportunity or the 1883 01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:22,120 Speaker 2: potential to be a really entertaining game. 1884 01:24:22,720 --> 01:24:24,880 Speaker 4: All Right, I'm gonna take this in a different direction 1885 01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:30,439 Speaker 4: with my beer goggles selection here because I just, yeah, 1886 01:24:30,520 --> 01:24:31,439 Speaker 4: we should go get. 1887 01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:33,200 Speaker 6: Some beers, I look at some girls or whatever. 1888 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:36,439 Speaker 4: You ever have a really good sports video game that 1889 01:24:36,640 --> 01:24:40,160 Speaker 4: you know you dominated to the point where it really 1890 01:24:40,200 --> 01:24:43,040 Speaker 4: wasn't competitive against the computer and you had to set 1891 01:24:43,160 --> 01:24:45,960 Speaker 4: new goals, Like I remember at my peak in madd 1892 01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:47,840 Speaker 4: in two thousand and three, when I knew I was 1893 01:24:47,960 --> 01:24:50,600 Speaker 4: really cooking if I had twenty eight points in the 1894 01:24:50,640 --> 01:24:54,519 Speaker 4: first quarter with five minute quarters against the hardest difficulty level. 1895 01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:57,800 Speaker 4: So instead of just winning the game, I was trying 1896 01:24:57,840 --> 01:25:01,720 Speaker 4: to outdo my own personal record when I put my 1897 01:25:01,840 --> 01:25:05,120 Speaker 4: beer goggles on. That's how I see this Colts Titans 1898 01:25:05,200 --> 01:25:09,000 Speaker 4: game in indeed being interesting. It's really about the Colts 1899 01:25:09,040 --> 01:25:13,280 Speaker 4: and just how badly they could end up beating the Titans. 1900 01:25:13,320 --> 01:25:16,720 Speaker 4: They're favored by fourteen, as you mentioned, and listen to 1901 01:25:16,760 --> 01:25:17,320 Speaker 4: these numbers. 1902 01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,520 Speaker 3: I'll sleep on that hook, all right, pointing. 1903 01:25:19,280 --> 01:25:22,479 Speaker 4: There fourteen and a half. Listen to these numbers. With 1904 01:25:22,560 --> 01:25:25,640 Speaker 4: the Colts offense so far this season, they're first in 1905 01:25:25,760 --> 01:25:28,640 Speaker 4: points per game at thirty three point one, first in 1906 01:25:28,760 --> 01:25:31,360 Speaker 4: yards per game at six point four, first in point 1907 01:25:31,360 --> 01:25:36,400 Speaker 4: differential they're plus ninety two. They're first and first downs, first, 1908 01:25:36,479 --> 01:25:38,160 Speaker 4: and fewest punts at only twelve. 1909 01:25:38,240 --> 01:25:39,000 Speaker 3: I have a punt. 1910 01:25:39,680 --> 01:25:44,360 Speaker 4: They're they're really not playing the Titans on Sunday. They're 1911 01:25:44,360 --> 01:25:45,240 Speaker 4: playing with themselves. 1912 01:25:45,360 --> 01:25:46,120 Speaker 1: That's not sexual. 1913 01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:50,520 Speaker 4: They are averaging the most points per drive this century, 1914 01:25:51,400 --> 01:25:53,880 Speaker 4: and Mike put one hundred points on the Titans, Like, 1915 01:25:54,600 --> 01:25:57,519 Speaker 4: look at this. They're getting three point four to six 1916 01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:01,280 Speaker 4: points per drive. That's bad than the two thousand and 1917 01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:05,120 Speaker 4: seven New England Patriots. That's better than the twenty eighteen 1918 01:26:05,240 --> 01:26:08,559 Speaker 4: Kansas City Chiefs, the twenty twenty Green Bay Packers, the 1919 01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:11,679 Speaker 4: twenty twenty four Detroit Lions, what is this the twenty 1920 01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:14,960 Speaker 4: eighteen New Orleans Saints. They were that good offensively, No, 1921 01:26:15,600 --> 01:26:18,880 Speaker 4: the end of Drew Brees. Their most points scored in 1922 01:26:18,880 --> 01:26:21,479 Speaker 4: the single game the Colts is fifty eight back in 1923 01:26:21,560 --> 01:26:25,600 Speaker 4: nineteen seventy six against the Buffalo Bills. Wasn't Peyton Manning, Obviously, 1924 01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:29,160 Speaker 4: wasn't Johnny Unitas was this guy named Bert Jones who 1925 01:26:29,280 --> 01:26:32,360 Speaker 4: was the Offensive Player of the Year and the league MVP. 1926 01:26:33,320 --> 01:26:36,080 Speaker 4: While Daniel Jones is not related, he does have a 1927 01:26:36,160 --> 01:26:39,800 Speaker 4: chance to make some history this season on Sunday at 1928 01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:42,439 Speaker 4: the expense of the Titans, and they have a good 1929 01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:46,439 Speaker 4: chance to pass what the two thousand and four Colts did, 1930 01:26:46,880 --> 01:26:49,680 Speaker 4: which is score five hundred and twenty two points in 1931 01:26:49,720 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 4: a season they were averaging thirty two points six points 1932 01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:56,240 Speaker 4: per game. These Colts are at two hundred and thirty 1933 01:26:56,240 --> 01:26:59,280 Speaker 4: two points total so far, but they're averaging more points 1934 01:26:59,280 --> 01:27:01,960 Speaker 4: per game at thirty three point one. So they're two 1935 01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:05,679 Speaker 4: hundred and ninety points away from passing Peyton Manning's two 1936 01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:08,639 Speaker 4: thousand and four team. According to my math, it's math, 1937 01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:11,720 Speaker 4: it's arithmets. They got ten games left. That means they 1938 01:27:11,760 --> 01:27:13,880 Speaker 4: need to average twenty nine points. The rest of the 1939 01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:16,120 Speaker 4: way to match it. Now, I don't think they'll do it. 1940 01:27:16,240 --> 01:27:18,040 Speaker 3: I was gonna say, how likely do you think that is? 1941 01:27:18,160 --> 01:27:21,320 Speaker 4: Probably not And even if they barely do it, they're 1942 01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:24,559 Speaker 4: still getting an extra game because you play seventeen now, 1943 01:27:24,640 --> 01:27:27,160 Speaker 4: So I would still say that's not as impressive as 1944 01:27:27,200 --> 01:27:29,760 Speaker 4: what Peyton Manning was doing back in two thousand and four, 1945 01:27:30,200 --> 01:27:35,200 Speaker 4: especially because we know offensive points and scoring everything is 1946 01:27:35,360 --> 01:27:39,240 Speaker 4: up now. Everything is leaning towards helping out offenses. But 1947 01:27:39,400 --> 01:27:41,599 Speaker 4: still with how much cam Ward fumbles the ball. 1948 01:27:41,920 --> 01:27:45,040 Speaker 2: Well, that play, that last play last week that has 1949 01:27:45,080 --> 01:27:47,479 Speaker 2: shades of Jamis Winston in the Rose Bowl against Oregon. 1950 01:27:47,760 --> 01:27:50,559 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know what's gonna happen in Indy 1951 01:27:50,840 --> 01:27:53,719 Speaker 4: against the Colts on Sunday. They could do something special. 1952 01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:55,800 Speaker 4: We shall see. That's my bear goggles game. 1953 01:27:55,840 --> 01:27:57,080 Speaker 3: They can lose seventeen to ten. 1954 01:27:57,800 --> 01:27:58,639 Speaker 4: Well, that's the NFL. 1955 01:27:58,680 --> 01:27:59,160 Speaker 3: I'm just saying. 1956 01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:00,920 Speaker 2: That's the thing is like expect and it makes all 1957 01:28:00,920 --> 01:28:03,640 Speaker 2: the sense in the world mine doesn't. The fact that 1958 01:28:03,680 --> 01:28:06,040 Speaker 2: I have that, you know as a as a trap 1959 01:28:06,080 --> 01:28:06,840 Speaker 2: game for the Colts. 1960 01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:08,400 Speaker 3: You look at all the numbers, you look at how 1961 01:28:08,400 --> 01:28:10,240 Speaker 3: the teams are playing. None of it makes sense. 1962 01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:13,479 Speaker 4: Nobody's as good as they were last week or as 1963 01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:16,160 Speaker 4: bad as they were last week. In the NFL, it's 1964 01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:17,000 Speaker 4: hard to project. 1965 01:28:17,680 --> 01:28:18,800 Speaker 3: All right, what do we have next? 1966 01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:19,040 Speaker 6: Mark? 1967 01:28:20,400 --> 01:28:34,799 Speaker 13: Oh my god, Oh my god. 1968 01:28:36,400 --> 01:28:39,879 Speaker 10: Oh right, I'm so sorry. 1969 01:28:41,160 --> 01:28:43,000 Speaker 2: Well, I will say and this is our old Troy 1970 01:28:43,439 --> 01:28:46,240 Speaker 2: potential of a potential epic fail this weekend. If you 1971 01:28:46,240 --> 01:28:47,800 Speaker 2: are a Viking fan, it didn't come down to a 1972 01:28:47,840 --> 01:28:49,400 Speaker 2: field goal on Thursday night because you got your ass 1973 01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:51,599 Speaker 2: handed to you from opening from the opening kick. 1974 01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:53,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, you didn't have to wonder about that. 1975 01:28:53,240 --> 01:28:55,880 Speaker 2: It was out of reach very early on in that game. 1976 01:28:56,360 --> 01:28:58,120 Speaker 2: I am going to go to the Baltimore Ravens at 1977 01:28:58,160 --> 01:29:00,360 Speaker 2: home against the Chicago Bears. I know a lot of 1978 01:29:00,400 --> 01:29:02,439 Speaker 2: people still have optimism that the Ravens can make a 1979 01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:04,600 Speaker 2: run at the postseason this year. I know, Adam, you 1980 01:29:04,640 --> 01:29:07,280 Speaker 2: do as well. You did a rant about this a 1981 01:29:07,320 --> 01:29:09,400 Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago here on FSR. You tell yourself, 1982 01:29:09,439 --> 01:29:10,400 Speaker 2: they just needs to get healthy. 1983 01:29:10,560 --> 01:29:10,720 Speaker 6: Now. 1984 01:29:11,200 --> 01:29:13,720 Speaker 2: Their schedule isn't super tough. No, and I get that, 1985 01:29:14,320 --> 01:29:15,879 Speaker 2: But if you look at the facts of the situation 1986 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:19,040 Speaker 2: right now, even if Lamar Jackson is healthy and playing, 1987 01:29:19,080 --> 01:29:21,120 Speaker 2: and he's basically a game time decision, at this point. 1988 01:29:21,880 --> 01:29:23,240 Speaker 3: I'll be honest, I just don't see it. 1989 01:29:23,640 --> 01:29:25,080 Speaker 2: They're not running the ball as well as they have 1990 01:29:25,160 --> 01:29:28,120 Speaker 2: in the past, and most importantly, their defense is terrible. 1991 01:29:28,479 --> 01:29:30,880 Speaker 2: There are thirtieth in total defense, in dead last and 1992 01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:34,160 Speaker 2: scoring defense. You can't even blame injuries on that, because 1993 01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:36,640 Speaker 2: the defense has been bad since Game one when they 1994 01:29:36,640 --> 01:29:38,640 Speaker 2: blew that two touchdown lead to the Buffalo Bills in 1995 01:29:38,680 --> 01:29:41,439 Speaker 2: opening night. That was before Mattabik got hurt, and then 1996 01:29:41,520 --> 01:29:44,240 Speaker 2: Humphrey ro quand Smith Kyle Hamilton. Obviously a lot of 1997 01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:47,400 Speaker 2: their heavy hitters have gotten hurt in subsequent weeks as well. 1998 01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:49,519 Speaker 2: So I think what it is for a lot of people, 1999 01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:51,720 Speaker 2: and correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not saying this 2000 01:29:51,760 --> 01:29:54,320 Speaker 2: is you. It's really hard to envision a team that 2001 01:29:54,360 --> 01:29:57,800 Speaker 2: has been this good for this long to be this 2002 01:29:58,000 --> 01:29:59,800 Speaker 2: bad and look this bad and look like the league 2003 01:29:59,840 --> 01:30:02,320 Speaker 2: by at this point in time, especially considering that it 2004 01:30:02,400 --> 01:30:03,680 Speaker 2: happened almost overnight. 2005 01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:06,800 Speaker 3: This wasn't a gradual fall. I'm not saying, by the way, 2006 01:30:06,840 --> 01:30:07,360 Speaker 3: I'm not saying. 2007 01:30:07,200 --> 01:30:09,040 Speaker 2: They're not going to recover next year and be a 2008 01:30:09,040 --> 01:30:11,880 Speaker 2: playoff team and be good and Lebar Jackson will be 2009 01:30:11,880 --> 01:30:12,360 Speaker 2: back and playing. 2010 01:30:12,400 --> 01:30:14,479 Speaker 4: Got an MVP level, but the holes too deep. 2011 01:30:14,760 --> 01:30:16,559 Speaker 2: I think the hole right now at one in five 2012 01:30:16,680 --> 01:30:18,960 Speaker 2: is just potentially too deep to crawl out of. And 2013 01:30:19,360 --> 01:30:22,880 Speaker 2: based on how Chicago is playing and Ben Johnson in 2014 01:30:22,960 --> 01:30:25,800 Speaker 2: that offense, Caleb is getting better every single week. He's 2015 01:30:25,800 --> 01:30:27,920 Speaker 2: not dominating by any stretch of the imagination, but the 2016 01:30:27,920 --> 01:30:28,920 Speaker 2: offense is getting better. 2017 01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:30,160 Speaker 3: They're running the ball better. 2018 01:30:30,280 --> 01:30:33,080 Speaker 2: DeAndre Swift is surpassed one hundred yards the past couple 2019 01:30:33,080 --> 01:30:36,640 Speaker 2: of games. And again, Baltimore can't stop anybody recently. And 2020 01:30:36,720 --> 01:30:38,640 Speaker 2: I don't think the bye week is gonna all of 2021 01:30:38,680 --> 01:30:41,400 Speaker 2: a sudden be the magic elixir for a team that's 2022 01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:43,960 Speaker 2: been hemorrhaging defensively all season long. It's just it's a 2023 01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:46,360 Speaker 2: talent issue at this point in time, an execution issue. 2024 01:30:46,560 --> 01:30:49,880 Speaker 2: So I think with the progression of that offense that 2025 01:30:50,120 --> 01:30:53,280 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens have a really, really good chance of 2026 01:30:53,320 --> 01:30:55,160 Speaker 2: having a repeat of what happened a couple of weeks 2027 01:30:55,200 --> 01:30:57,479 Speaker 2: ago in Baltimore against the Houston Texans. 2028 01:30:57,680 --> 01:31:02,120 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm taking this in a different direction here with 2029 01:31:02,400 --> 01:31:03,800 Speaker 4: my old Troy epic fail. 2030 01:31:03,920 --> 01:31:05,000 Speaker 6: Oh trying. 2031 01:31:06,040 --> 01:31:07,840 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. 2032 01:31:09,120 --> 01:31:12,280 Speaker 4: I feel like Chicago is getting a little too excited lately. 2033 01:31:12,080 --> 01:31:14,679 Speaker 3: O going to the opposite direction on me here. 2034 01:31:14,760 --> 01:31:16,760 Speaker 4: It's like they forgot what it's like to root for 2035 01:31:16,800 --> 01:31:20,479 Speaker 4: sports in their city, and specifically with the Bears. They 2036 01:31:20,520 --> 01:31:22,800 Speaker 4: think they're out of the woods, but they forget about 2037 01:31:22,800 --> 01:31:27,080 Speaker 4: the rhetorical question. Does a bear poop in the woods? Obviously, yes, 2038 01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:30,080 Speaker 4: a bear does, so the Bears can never fully be 2039 01:31:30,160 --> 01:31:32,720 Speaker 4: out of the woods if you follow me there. And 2040 01:31:32,760 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 4: I think with Lamar Jackson going back, the Ravens might 2041 01:31:37,360 --> 01:31:40,719 Speaker 4: take them to the wood shed. This won't be belt 2042 01:31:40,720 --> 01:31:44,080 Speaker 4: to ask. This will be Hacksaw Jim Duggans two by 2043 01:31:44,240 --> 01:31:49,000 Speaker 4: four teen. Yes, that is a fourign two Bears team, 2044 01:31:49,400 --> 01:31:52,400 Speaker 4: winners of four straight. Let me see here. They beat 2045 01:31:52,400 --> 01:31:59,320 Speaker 4: the Cowboys, the Raiders, and Commanders and Saints. Unlike Colin Cowherd, 2046 01:31:59,400 --> 01:32:02,200 Speaker 4: who's getting way too excited about Kayleb Williams because he 2047 01:32:02,320 --> 01:32:06,559 Speaker 4: likes anything usc for whatever reason. Uh, you're gonna see 2048 01:32:06,560 --> 01:32:11,559 Speaker 4: a QB that is still young and still inexperienced in 2049 01:32:11,680 --> 01:32:14,839 Speaker 4: Baltimore on Sunday. I just got a feeling this Ravens 2050 01:32:14,880 --> 01:32:18,719 Speaker 4: team is going to be rejuvenated and re energized after 2051 01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:21,519 Speaker 4: a week off and having Lamar Jackson back. 2052 01:32:21,880 --> 01:32:24,080 Speaker 3: The Ravens might be back. We don't know if he's back. 2053 01:32:24,120 --> 01:32:25,880 Speaker 4: By the way, well, if he's not back, then this 2054 01:32:25,960 --> 01:32:28,440 Speaker 4: is definitely off the table. In fact, if you discount 2055 01:32:28,479 --> 01:32:30,479 Speaker 4: everything did practice on. 2056 01:32:30,479 --> 01:32:31,320 Speaker 3: Friday, I'll give you that. 2057 01:32:31,360 --> 01:32:33,360 Speaker 2: But as at this point in time, it sounds as 2058 01:32:33,400 --> 01:32:34,519 Speaker 2: if he's a game time decision. 2059 01:32:34,600 --> 01:32:37,599 Speaker 4: Look, you can't go one in six and then make 2060 01:32:37,640 --> 01:32:38,280 Speaker 4: the playoffs. 2061 01:32:38,360 --> 01:32:38,600 Speaker 6: This is. 2062 01:32:40,200 --> 01:32:41,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd say so going down. 2063 01:32:43,360 --> 01:32:45,080 Speaker 3: Making the playoffs is tough sledding. 2064 01:32:45,479 --> 01:32:48,719 Speaker 4: You're right, but they got so many divisional games left. 2065 01:32:48,760 --> 01:32:50,639 Speaker 4: I just feel like the AFC Norse will only get 2066 01:32:50,760 --> 01:32:53,800 Speaker 4: one team, whoever wins the division is making the playoffs. 2067 01:32:54,640 --> 01:32:58,599 Speaker 4: If Lamar's not playing, forget about it. But I think 2068 01:32:59,120 --> 01:33:01,559 Speaker 4: he's going to play, and I think he's gonna play well, 2069 01:33:02,080 --> 01:33:04,240 Speaker 4: and I think the Bears could be in trouble. They're 2070 01:33:04,240 --> 01:33:06,720 Speaker 4: a little too high and Mighty Chicago's not supposed to 2071 01:33:06,800 --> 01:33:10,280 Speaker 4: have good QB play. Ever, that's not what they do. 2072 01:33:10,560 --> 01:33:12,120 Speaker 4: It's about defense and running the rock. 2073 01:33:12,280 --> 01:33:14,200 Speaker 2: Okay, well they're running the rock and the defense is 2074 01:33:14,200 --> 01:33:15,880 Speaker 2: actually performing pretty decently right now. 2075 01:33:16,080 --> 01:33:19,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, Lamar's coming. Okay, the hell's coming with them. 2076 01:33:19,640 --> 01:33:22,240 Speaker 2: Lamar's coming, like like the injured player in Madden who's 2077 01:33:22,280 --> 01:33:23,520 Speaker 2: dragging his leg running. 2078 01:33:23,240 --> 01:33:23,879 Speaker 3: Down the fields? 2079 01:33:24,040 --> 01:33:25,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, who was that packer? 2080 01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:30,479 Speaker 2: Exactly? It was, yes, all right, Mark, what do we 2081 01:33:30,520 --> 01:33:34,240 Speaker 2: have next under the microscope? Yes, the team player or 2082 01:33:34,280 --> 01:33:36,719 Speaker 2: the game. Everybody should watch closely. And since we're talking 2083 01:33:36,760 --> 01:33:38,720 Speaker 2: AFC North that I'm I'm going with the Bengals and 2084 01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:41,559 Speaker 2: that offense versus the Jets. We were half joking three 2085 01:33:41,600 --> 01:33:43,439 Speaker 2: weeks ago when we said that the Bengals should trade 2086 01:33:43,439 --> 01:33:44,040 Speaker 2: for Joe Flacco. 2087 01:33:44,280 --> 01:33:45,040 Speaker 4: I wasn't joking. 2088 01:33:45,160 --> 01:33:47,200 Speaker 2: Okay, well maybe you weren't. I certainly was. I said 2089 01:33:47,200 --> 01:33:49,960 Speaker 2: they should trade for a quarterback. I didn't think Well, one. 2090 01:33:49,680 --> 01:33:52,080 Speaker 4: We were joking that we didn't think the Browns would do. 2091 01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:54,599 Speaker 3: It, right, That's the thing we didn't Now that did 2092 01:33:54,600 --> 01:33:55,080 Speaker 3: Mike Tomlin. 2093 01:33:55,240 --> 01:33:56,840 Speaker 2: We didn't think the Browns would do it because he's 2094 01:33:56,880 --> 01:34:00,519 Speaker 2: a quarterback, starting caliber quarterback within the division. And then 2095 01:34:00,960 --> 01:34:03,519 Speaker 2: two we were like, even if you did trade for him, 2096 01:34:03,840 --> 01:34:05,760 Speaker 2: I figured the offensive line was so bad and he's 2097 01:34:05,800 --> 01:34:08,479 Speaker 2: a statue back there. The inexperienced is zact tailor's offense, 2098 01:34:08,479 --> 01:34:10,960 Speaker 2: which he admitted to when he got traded there would 2099 01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:12,480 Speaker 2: not be able to bear any fruit. 2100 01:34:12,240 --> 01:34:14,679 Speaker 4: Hold on was Mark saying he's as old as a goat, 2101 01:34:14,760 --> 01:34:16,880 Speaker 4: because he definitely ain't the goat. Well, I don't know 2102 01:34:16,880 --> 01:34:19,400 Speaker 4: how to interpret that ghost now he's old. 2103 01:34:19,479 --> 01:34:22,160 Speaker 2: Hey, he looked like you last week all right against Pittsburgh. 2104 01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:24,639 Speaker 2: That's for damn sure. Based on what happened on Monday night, 2105 01:34:24,640 --> 01:34:26,759 Speaker 2: he and Jamar Chase put on an offensive clinic between 2106 01:34:26,760 --> 01:34:27,240 Speaker 2: the two of them. 2107 01:34:27,240 --> 01:34:29,320 Speaker 3: Now, granted, Steelers defense has been terrible this year. 2108 01:34:29,320 --> 01:34:31,240 Speaker 2: I think they're third till I think thirtieth out to 2109 01:34:31,280 --> 01:34:32,800 Speaker 2: double check on that, but I think theyre thirtieth in 2110 01:34:33,120 --> 01:34:34,360 Speaker 2: total defense all season long. 2111 01:34:34,400 --> 01:34:35,400 Speaker 4: That's not supposed to happen. 2112 01:34:35,560 --> 01:34:38,120 Speaker 2: No, it isn't, not for the steel curtain out there. 2113 01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:40,439 Speaker 2: They've been pretty bad on defense. Their scoring defense, I 2114 01:34:40,439 --> 01:34:41,720 Speaker 2: think is the middle of the pack where they give 2115 01:34:41,800 --> 01:34:43,360 Speaker 2: up a crap ton of yards. 2116 01:34:43,560 --> 01:34:44,320 Speaker 6: So now you have the. 2117 01:34:44,280 --> 01:34:46,519 Speaker 2: Bengals setos the old and seven Jets who are desperate 2118 01:34:46,560 --> 01:34:48,760 Speaker 2: to get their first win. Aaron Glenn, as you mentioned 2119 01:34:48,800 --> 01:34:50,800 Speaker 2: feud in questions for about the team owner and the 2120 01:34:50,800 --> 01:34:53,240 Speaker 2: coach he's talking about with the quarterback. It's just a 2121 01:34:53,240 --> 01:34:56,040 Speaker 2: giant mess out there. So now a chance for the 2122 01:34:56,040 --> 01:34:58,679 Speaker 2: Bengals offense to keep that momentum going if I'm placing 2123 01:34:58,720 --> 01:35:01,400 Speaker 2: them under the microscope, because that offense can ball out 2124 01:35:01,439 --> 01:35:03,880 Speaker 2: again this week. I think, all of a sudden, we're 2125 01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:06,479 Speaker 2: talking about a legit division race in the AFC North. 2126 01:35:06,520 --> 01:35:08,519 Speaker 2: You're right, that does not include the Baltimore Ravens. To 2127 01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:10,479 Speaker 2: be honest with you, I think that turns into a 2128 01:35:10,520 --> 01:35:13,720 Speaker 2: two team race between Cincinnati and the Pittsburgh Steelers, who 2129 01:35:13,800 --> 01:35:14,240 Speaker 2: they just. 2130 01:35:14,240 --> 01:35:15,160 Speaker 3: Beat on Monday Night. 2131 01:35:15,200 --> 01:35:18,320 Speaker 2: I know the Bengals defense sucks, but so does Pittsburgh's, 2132 01:35:18,760 --> 01:35:19,840 Speaker 2: and so does Baltimore's. 2133 01:35:20,160 --> 01:35:22,599 Speaker 3: And Cleveland's defense is great, but their offense is terrible. 2134 01:35:23,000 --> 01:35:25,679 Speaker 2: So everybody in the division from that standpoint is somewhat 2135 01:35:25,880 --> 01:35:27,280 Speaker 2: on equal footing to a certain degree. 2136 01:35:27,360 --> 01:35:29,640 Speaker 4: All got flaws, so no one's running away from anybody. 2137 01:35:29,720 --> 01:35:32,559 Speaker 2: And now that the Bengals actually have a good, competent 2138 01:35:32,640 --> 01:35:35,160 Speaker 2: quarterback behind center, I think they have a legitimate chance 2139 01:35:35,160 --> 01:35:36,519 Speaker 2: to get back into the division race. 2140 01:35:36,920 --> 01:35:37,360 Speaker 4: All right. 2141 01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:38,040 Speaker 9: I like that. 2142 01:35:38,200 --> 01:35:40,040 Speaker 4: Actually, that makes a lot of sense to me. I'm 2143 01:35:40,080 --> 01:35:45,880 Speaker 4: with you. I'm putting all the NFL coaches under the microscope, right, 2144 01:35:46,000 --> 01:35:49,880 Speaker 4: all of them, because they can't seem to understand how 2145 01:35:49,920 --> 01:35:54,120 Speaker 4: to manage the damn clock. Another mistake was made Monday 2146 01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:58,840 Speaker 4: night in Seattle, I was reminded of this quote from 2147 01:35:58,920 --> 01:36:01,880 Speaker 4: Petros Papadakas, who we had on earlier, were back in 2148 01:36:01,920 --> 01:36:04,920 Speaker 4: the day. He said this, these coaches are just dumb 2149 01:36:04,960 --> 01:36:06,280 Speaker 4: ass pe teachers. 2150 01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:07,639 Speaker 6: Dumb ass. 2151 01:36:08,600 --> 01:36:11,680 Speaker 4: Well, I definitely weren't math teachers, I'll tell you that because. 2152 01:36:11,520 --> 01:36:13,639 Speaker 3: I compensated pe teachers for sure. 2153 01:36:13,720 --> 01:36:17,519 Speaker 4: Yeah, Demiko Ryans, he did end up blaming his kicker, 2154 01:36:18,080 --> 01:36:21,160 Speaker 4: Kimie Fairburn, for just not kicking it out of bounds 2155 01:36:21,439 --> 01:36:24,519 Speaker 4: so you could get that extra time out by making 2156 01:36:24,560 --> 01:36:27,240 Speaker 4: Seattle run a play before the two minute warning, which 2157 01:36:27,280 --> 01:36:29,240 Speaker 4: happened on Monday night. But I don't know if I 2158 01:36:29,240 --> 01:36:33,479 Speaker 4: can believe Demiko Ryans after all the coaching errors we've 2159 01:36:33,520 --> 01:36:36,800 Speaker 4: seen over the years. They happen every week. These are 2160 01:36:36,840 --> 01:36:41,200 Speaker 4: not clock malfunctions, these are brain malfunctions. Ben Johnson had 2161 01:36:41,200 --> 01:36:44,719 Speaker 4: one in Week one, same situation. Yeah, not just kicking 2162 01:36:44,720 --> 01:36:46,960 Speaker 4: it out of bounds save the two minute warning against 2163 01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:50,280 Speaker 4: the Vikings. It's not a field position game at that point. 2164 01:36:50,479 --> 01:36:53,960 Speaker 4: There's only a five yard difference between a touchback, which 2165 01:36:53,960 --> 01:36:56,519 Speaker 4: puts it at the thirty five, and just kicking it 2166 01:36:56,600 --> 01:36:59,479 Speaker 4: out of bounds, which puts it at the forty. These 2167 01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:03,360 Speaker 4: coaches Rains are out of bounce. Maybe they should be 2168 01:37:03,400 --> 01:37:05,799 Speaker 4: the ones who have to take a wonder like test 2169 01:37:06,240 --> 01:37:09,479 Speaker 4: or some type of clock management course every year to 2170 01:37:09,560 --> 01:37:12,720 Speaker 4: renew your certification. You know, if you're like seventy years 2171 01:37:12,800 --> 01:37:15,599 Speaker 4: or older, you got to take a driver's test every 2172 01:37:15,640 --> 01:37:16,520 Speaker 4: five years. 2173 01:37:16,320 --> 01:37:17,280 Speaker 3: Vision test and all that. 2174 01:37:17,400 --> 01:37:20,320 Speaker 4: Yep, maybe something like that for these NFL coaches. Like 2175 01:37:20,360 --> 01:37:22,759 Speaker 4: I got an idea for a new game show. Remember 2176 01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:25,400 Speaker 4: that show, Are you Smarter than a fifth grader? 2177 01:37:25,479 --> 01:37:25,679 Speaker 6: Yes? 2178 01:37:25,880 --> 01:37:29,120 Speaker 4: What about are you smarter than an NFL coach? What's 2179 01:37:29,160 --> 01:37:31,360 Speaker 4: Mike McCarthy doing right now? I think I saw him 2180 01:37:31,360 --> 01:37:34,400 Speaker 4: on the other PMS show recently, Like I could see 2181 01:37:34,439 --> 01:37:37,479 Speaker 4: him losing every week to drunk cowboy fans on are 2182 01:37:37,479 --> 01:37:39,280 Speaker 4: you Smarter than an NFL coach? 2183 01:37:39,800 --> 01:37:40,639 Speaker 3: You know, it's so funny. 2184 01:37:40,640 --> 01:37:43,559 Speaker 2: They have like entire departments dedicated to clock management and 2185 01:37:43,600 --> 01:37:46,320 Speaker 2: game time situations. Could have folded me and like it was, 2186 01:37:46,880 --> 01:37:48,680 Speaker 2: are you sure? How much are you paying these Where 2187 01:37:48,680 --> 01:37:51,880 Speaker 2: are all these people on Sundays? Do you fund those departments? 2188 01:37:51,920 --> 01:37:53,080 Speaker 2: Because they're worthless? 2189 01:37:53,200 --> 01:37:54,720 Speaker 3: They really are. It's ridiculous. 2190 01:37:54,760 --> 01:37:57,600 Speaker 4: It's every week with these coaches. Kevin and I'm not 2191 01:37:57,680 --> 01:38:01,200 Speaker 4: that smart Okay, you dumb man. Yes, but we all 2192 01:38:01,240 --> 01:38:03,719 Speaker 4: see it.

I am a Chicago fan through and through. 2223 01:39:21,960 --> 01:39:25,920 Speaker 12: I am always pessimistic. I'm never optimistic when it comes 2224 01:39:25,960 --> 01:39:29,200 Speaker 12: down to my Chicago teams. Allude from our clubs. This 2225 01:39:29,320 --> 01:39:33,080 Speaker 12: year we got to the Pro season. Great, not good enough, 2226 01:39:34,760 --> 01:39:38,200 Speaker 12: but no, I wanted to make mention of I can't 2227 01:39:38,200 --> 01:39:41,320 Speaker 12: wait to see what all the other leagues are doing 2228 01:39:41,360 --> 01:39:45,960 Speaker 12: now with when looking into potential gamblings or potential illegal 2229 01:39:46,000 --> 01:39:48,640 Speaker 12: betting going on. I mean, we had the show a 2230 01:39:48,920 --> 01:39:49,479 Speaker 12: tiny thing. 2231 01:39:49,800 --> 01:39:50,280 Speaker 6: What was that? 2232 01:39:50,400 --> 01:39:54,120 Speaker 12: Just last year we had this new the new NBA one. 2233 01:39:54,360 --> 01:39:56,560 Speaker 12: I mean, the NBA has always been making the headlines 2234 01:39:56,640 --> 01:39:59,759 Speaker 12: for illegal gambling. I'm waiting to see what Roger Bedell's 2235 01:39:59,760 --> 01:40:02,800 Speaker 12: going to and then what the NHL is gonna find. 2236 01:40:02,800 --> 01:40:05,760 Speaker 12: I think the NHL is probably they're probably so deep 2237 01:40:05,800 --> 01:40:09,000 Speaker 12: into it that all the guys are probably connected. Because 2238 01:40:09,040 --> 01:40:12,519 Speaker 12: hockey's been a thing for I don't know how long, 2239 01:40:12,680 --> 01:40:15,080 Speaker 12: but it's been around for a good little second. So 2240 01:40:15,120 --> 01:40:17,080 Speaker 12: I mean, I'm pretty sure that these guys are in 2241 01:40:17,120 --> 01:40:19,720 Speaker 12: bed with just about the same amount of people that 2242 01:40:19,840 --> 01:40:23,439 Speaker 12: Chauncey Boots was into. But the one thing that I 2243 01:40:23,560 --> 01:40:27,639 Speaker 12: cannot connect, and I know everybody is trying to do. 2244 01:40:27,600 --> 01:40:27,840 Speaker 10: So. 2245 01:40:29,240 --> 01:40:31,439 Speaker 12: Who snitched somebody didn't get paid. 2246 01:40:32,560 --> 01:40:34,960 Speaker 2: I mean, I can tell you, Oh, Adam has a 2247 01:40:35,000 --> 01:40:37,920 Speaker 2: theory on this. Cole, I'm glad that you that you asked, well. 2248 01:40:37,720 --> 01:40:41,600 Speaker 4: Only because this guy said so himself, Gilbert Arenas, he 2249 01:40:41,680 --> 01:40:45,840 Speaker 4: got busted in July for back room gambling, and people 2250 01:40:45,880 --> 01:40:48,840 Speaker 4: suspected when this story came out because gil came out 2251 01:40:48,960 --> 01:40:51,080 Speaker 4: right afterwards and was like, I'm not going to jail 2252 01:40:51,080 --> 01:40:53,599 Speaker 4: because I'll snitch. I'll tell you openly, I'm gonna snitch 2253 01:40:53,600 --> 01:40:56,759 Speaker 4: on everybody. So some people suspect that's where this started. 2254 01:40:56,880 --> 01:40:58,760 Speaker 4: I don't know. It sounds like they were investigating it 2255 01:40:58,840 --> 01:40:59,240 Speaker 4: for a while. 2256 01:40:59,320 --> 01:41:03,120 Speaker 12: He made Nichols know the tweet about the Rachel Nichols 2257 01:41:03,200 --> 01:41:04,960 Speaker 12: things and that he was going to sew it for 2258 01:41:05,040 --> 01:41:09,360 Speaker 12: defamation's and all this other stuff. It kind of throws 2259 01:41:09,800 --> 01:41:12,920 Speaker 12: a wrench and the quirk there just a tad bit. 2260 01:41:13,400 --> 01:41:18,040 Speaker 12: But I mean, we I'm from Chicago, obviously, but the 2261 01:41:18,400 --> 01:41:21,400 Speaker 12: street code and conduct is the snitches get stitches, and 2262 01:41:21,560 --> 01:41:24,880 Speaker 12: this dude didn't get stitches yet, so I mean, And 2263 01:41:24,920 --> 01:41:30,200 Speaker 12: the Chauncey Billups remark was is I'm an upstanding citizen. 2264 01:41:30,600 --> 01:41:33,639 Speaker 12: I don't do stuff like that. That is the lamest 2265 01:41:33,760 --> 01:41:38,559 Speaker 12: chat GPT apology that I've ever heard. If chat GPT 2266 01:41:38,680 --> 01:41:41,680 Speaker 12: actually wrote that, because I mean, it would probably I. 2267 01:41:41,640 --> 01:41:43,640 Speaker 2: Think that was a quote from his lawyer, Kyle I 2268 01:41:43,680 --> 01:41:46,360 Speaker 2: actually had that, So if his lawyer used chat GPT. 2269 01:41:46,280 --> 01:41:49,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, the statement that was released and then somebody else 2270 01:41:49,240 --> 01:41:52,759 Speaker 4: had a statement from an anonymous GM being like Chauncey 2271 01:41:52,760 --> 01:41:54,880 Speaker 4: Billips is one of the best people I know. It's 2272 01:41:54,880 --> 01:41:57,280 Speaker 4: like cool, they can also get caught up in something 2273 01:41:57,360 --> 01:42:01,479 Speaker 4: like that. Right, that's all. Thank you for the call, Kyle, though. 2274 01:42:01,479 --> 01:42:03,200 Speaker 4: We appreciate that and insight on that. 2275 01:42:03,280 --> 01:42:05,880 Speaker 2: I will say the NFL, at least for what we 2276 01:42:05,960 --> 01:42:07,960 Speaker 2: know or what has been public, has been fairly proactive 2277 01:42:08,000 --> 01:42:10,200 Speaker 2: on this. I talked about Calvin Ridley, we talked about 2278 01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:12,919 Speaker 2: the group of Colts players and others. Major League Baseball 2279 01:42:12,920 --> 01:42:16,360 Speaker 2: has suspended multiple players over gambling. Emmanuel class As roped 2280 01:42:16,400 --> 01:42:18,800 Speaker 2: up an investigation, right now he wants to play in 2281 01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:20,880 Speaker 2: winter ball, and Major League Baseball won't let him do 2282 01:42:20,920 --> 01:42:23,120 Speaker 2: it because they don't want to play in competitively in 2283 01:42:23,160 --> 01:42:25,320 Speaker 2: any capacity until they figure out what this whole betting 2284 01:42:25,320 --> 01:42:26,120 Speaker 2: thing with him might be. 2285 01:42:26,280 --> 01:42:28,880 Speaker 4: I think we probably made a mistake normalizing all this 2286 01:42:29,640 --> 01:42:32,920 Speaker 4: like too much, too soon, too fast. Maybe I don't know. 2287 01:42:33,000 --> 01:42:35,200 Speaker 2: I mean one point Jalen Brown did make. Now, granted, 2288 01:42:35,320 --> 01:42:37,320 Speaker 2: you know the players are getting their cut of this too. 2289 01:42:37,400 --> 01:42:40,040 Speaker 2: All of this gets, you know, part of the revenue share. 2290 01:42:40,160 --> 01:42:42,200 Speaker 4: Now, what the hell is Jalen Brown talking about? We 2291 01:42:42,200 --> 01:42:44,880 Speaker 4: don't get a part of it, Like you split the pie, 2292 01:42:45,080 --> 01:42:47,719 Speaker 4: so part of the pie is gambling money. 2293 01:42:47,800 --> 01:42:50,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that part from his from his standpoint, is disingenuous, 2294 01:42:50,720 --> 01:42:52,400 Speaker 2: but he is right. 2295 01:42:52,479 --> 01:42:53,360 Speaker 3: Everything that is done. 2296 01:42:53,439 --> 01:42:56,320 Speaker 2: But that's that's business, that's capitalism is for the almighty dollars. 2297 01:42:56,320 --> 01:42:57,519 Speaker 3: They're gonna do whatever it takes. 2298 01:42:57,800 --> 01:42:59,960 Speaker 2: They know they've been missing out on hundreds of millions, 2299 01:43:00,160 --> 01:43:03,040 Speaker 2: help billions of dollars by not being in bed with 2300 01:43:03,120 --> 01:43:04,919 Speaker 2: the DraftKings and a bunch of other sponsors. 2301 01:43:04,920 --> 01:43:05,680 Speaker 3: So that's why they do it. 2302 01:43:05,800 --> 01:43:09,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, once they realize, like how easy it could be, 2303 01:43:09,320 --> 01:43:13,360 Speaker 4: and you gamified and instead of saying over under, you 2304 01:43:13,439 --> 01:43:16,960 Speaker 4: say more than or less than, and somehow that takes 2305 01:43:16,960 --> 01:43:21,120 Speaker 4: away the stigma for some people. So we're going all in. 2306 01:43:21,240 --> 01:43:23,559 Speaker 4: There really were there was too much money to be made. 2307 01:43:23,600 --> 01:43:25,639 Speaker 4: There's no going back now. So we're going to see 2308 01:43:25,680 --> 01:43:26,720 Speaker 4: more of this stuff. 2309 01:43:27,080 --> 01:43:27,680 Speaker 3: Keep popping up. 2310 01:43:27,720 --> 01:43:29,559 Speaker 2: It just depends on how the commissioners and how the 2311 01:43:29,600 --> 01:43:31,760 Speaker 2: leagues decide to handle them only up and up or 2312 01:43:31,760 --> 01:43:33,840 Speaker 2: try to bury them, like allegedly the NBA deal with 2313 01:43:33,920 --> 01:43:34,519 Speaker 2: Terry Rogier. 2314 01:43:34,920 --> 01:43:38,120 Speaker 3: All right, Mark, what's our next category redemption route? 2315 01:43:38,240 --> 01:43:41,920 Speaker 2: The teamer player looking to bounce back from last week's performance? 2316 01:43:41,960 --> 01:43:45,360 Speaker 4: Adam, I'd say my redemption round last week was pretty strong. 2317 01:43:45,439 --> 01:43:49,400 Speaker 4: Taking the Lions. They covered, they did over the Buccaneers. Now, 2318 01:43:49,479 --> 01:43:52,599 Speaker 4: I think the Giants are going to redeem themselves by 2319 01:43:52,720 --> 01:43:56,400 Speaker 4: never getting up by nineteen points on a team ever again, 2320 01:43:56,560 --> 01:43:59,120 Speaker 4: and definitely not this week on the road in Philly. 2321 01:43:59,439 --> 01:44:03,280 Speaker 4: I would take a nap during that improbable Broncos comeback 2322 01:44:03,520 --> 01:44:06,880 Speaker 4: on them last week. Well, Sunday, ses I woke up 2323 01:44:07,560 --> 01:44:10,040 Speaker 4: just in time to see Jackson Dart getting the end 2324 01:44:10,120 --> 01:44:13,240 Speaker 4: zone for that last touchdown, thinking, oh, they're still gonna 2325 01:44:13,240 --> 01:44:16,879 Speaker 4: pull it out. That's that's gonna be enough, narrator says 2326 01:44:17,160 --> 01:44:21,240 Speaker 4: it was not. How do you lead nineteen to nothing 2327 01:44:21,240 --> 01:44:24,759 Speaker 4: after three quarters, score two more touchdowns in the fourth 2328 01:44:24,840 --> 01:44:27,880 Speaker 4: quarter and still lose thirty three to thirty two. That 2329 01:44:28,000 --> 01:44:29,080 Speaker 4: seems impossible. 2330 01:44:29,400 --> 01:44:30,800 Speaker 3: That seems right to Esque right there. 2331 01:44:31,320 --> 01:44:34,640 Speaker 4: But that's why they call themselves with the Giants for 2332 01:44:34,760 --> 01:44:39,200 Speaker 4: giant comebacks against them. The Broncos win probability was as 2333 01:44:39,240 --> 01:44:42,639 Speaker 4: low as zero point seven percent, less than one percent, 2334 01:44:43,000 --> 01:44:45,759 Speaker 4: with six thirty eight left in the fourth quarter, facing 2335 01:44:45,760 --> 01:44:49,840 Speaker 4: a fourth and three, trailing twenty six to eight. I 2336 01:44:50,320 --> 01:44:54,920 Speaker 4: still can't believe that happened. I'm not certain it will 2337 01:44:54,960 --> 01:44:58,479 Speaker 4: ever happen again. But the Giants aren't getting up by 2338 01:44:58,560 --> 01:45:01,320 Speaker 4: nineteen on anyone the rest of the season. This is 2339 01:45:01,400 --> 01:45:04,640 Speaker 4: twenty eight to three Falcons over the Patriots like that 2340 01:45:04,800 --> 01:45:09,120 Speaker 4: score is cursed. It's damned. Don't ever get up by 2341 01:45:09,280 --> 01:45:12,080 Speaker 4: nineteen again. And they ain't gonna have to worry about 2342 01:45:12,120 --> 01:45:13,880 Speaker 4: it in Philly against the Eagles this week. 2343 01:45:14,000 --> 01:45:16,599 Speaker 3: They might not. Now I also have this as my redemption. 2344 01:45:16,760 --> 01:45:19,080 Speaker 2: Oh really, the Giants after blowing that big lead against 2345 01:45:19,080 --> 01:45:22,920 Speaker 2: Diver and I think they show themselves well again against Philadelphia, 2346 01:45:22,960 --> 01:45:25,760 Speaker 2: who granted I know they beat Minnesota last week. But 2347 01:45:25,800 --> 01:45:27,920 Speaker 2: if you actually watched that game, Minnesota moved that ball 2348 01:45:28,040 --> 01:45:30,240 Speaker 2: up and down the field on them. They just couldn't 2349 01:45:30,240 --> 01:45:31,920 Speaker 2: convert in the red zone. They had to kick five 2350 01:45:31,960 --> 01:45:35,840 Speaker 2: field goals. Carson Wentz picked six another major interception, which 2351 01:45:35,880 --> 01:45:37,639 Speaker 2: is played Carson Wentz his entire career. 2352 01:45:37,960 --> 01:45:39,760 Speaker 3: You know, good in between the twenties. 2353 01:45:39,439 --> 01:45:41,280 Speaker 2: And then when it comes down to I guess nut 2354 01:45:41,320 --> 01:45:43,519 Speaker 2: cutting time for lack of a better term, he usually 2355 01:45:43,560 --> 01:45:45,920 Speaker 2: ends up falling short. So I know when the Giants 2356 01:45:45,920 --> 01:45:48,160 Speaker 2: beat them a couple of Thursdays ago, Jalen Carter didn't play. 2357 01:45:48,200 --> 01:45:50,519 Speaker 2: That's a huge loss on the Eagles defensive front. But 2358 01:45:50,560 --> 01:45:53,240 Speaker 2: even with Jalen Carter, their pass rush has not been good, 2359 01:45:54,040 --> 01:45:57,280 Speaker 2: their defensive backfield has not been good. Offensively upfront, they 2360 01:45:57,320 --> 01:45:59,519 Speaker 2: have not been out physically people like they have. That's 2361 01:45:59,560 --> 01:46:02,639 Speaker 2: part of the why Saquon Barkley hasn't quite gotten off yet. 2362 01:46:02,800 --> 01:46:05,479 Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts has had a couple of spectacular halves. He 2363 01:46:05,520 --> 01:46:08,400 Speaker 2: had a phenomenal second half against Minnesota last week. He 2364 01:46:08,439 --> 01:46:12,080 Speaker 2: had a phenomenal second half against the Rams earlier this season, 2365 01:46:12,280 --> 01:46:15,439 Speaker 2: but still pretty inconsistent. So I think the way that 2366 01:46:15,479 --> 01:46:17,760 Speaker 2: this Giants defensive line can get after them like they 2367 01:46:17,760 --> 01:46:19,600 Speaker 2: did a couple of weeks ago. Is going to continue. 2368 01:46:19,800 --> 01:46:22,280 Speaker 2: And Jackson Dart as a baller like, yes, he might 2369 01:46:22,320 --> 01:46:23,920 Speaker 2: not be the most accurate. Yes, he takes too many 2370 01:46:23,960 --> 01:46:26,240 Speaker 2: unnecessary shots, so it's gonna end up hurting him long term. 2371 01:46:26,280 --> 01:46:28,880 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, they just got fined by the way make 2372 01:46:28,920 --> 01:46:31,479 Speaker 4: money for the CTE stuff and him being in the 2373 01:46:31,840 --> 01:46:33,680 Speaker 4: protocol ten or whatever. 2374 01:46:33,640 --> 01:46:36,400 Speaker 3: Ball scatab They are all Scataboo catches stray. 2375 01:46:36,400 --> 01:46:37,360 Speaker 4: Why is he getting. 2376 01:46:37,280 --> 01:46:40,519 Speaker 2: Because nobody other than the medical personnel and the player 2377 01:46:40,800 --> 01:46:42,640 Speaker 2: who is hurt or allowed in the medical tent and 2378 01:46:42,680 --> 01:46:43,600 Speaker 2: Scataboo walked in there. 2379 01:46:43,640 --> 01:46:45,160 Speaker 4: We're not allowed to check on your friends. 2380 01:46:45,280 --> 01:46:47,560 Speaker 3: I mean, I would hope. 2381 01:46:47,439 --> 01:46:48,200 Speaker 4: On your homies. 2382 01:46:48,320 --> 01:46:50,479 Speaker 2: Not The Merraw family would just pay the fine for 2383 01:46:50,600 --> 01:46:52,800 Speaker 2: him usually, And it's like fifty grand or something in 2384 01:46:52,840 --> 01:46:55,120 Speaker 2: the grand for me, that's a lot for him, it's 2385 01:46:55,160 --> 01:46:55,800 Speaker 2: not that damn much. 2386 01:46:56,080 --> 01:46:57,360 Speaker 3: So not that big of a deal. 2387 01:46:57,680 --> 01:47:00,599 Speaker 2: So hard to sweep the defending champions, I get that part, 2388 01:47:00,880 --> 01:47:02,439 Speaker 2: But just based on how these teams are built now 2389 01:47:02,479 --> 01:47:04,960 Speaker 2: they're playing right now, I think I'm calling the Giants 2390 01:47:05,000 --> 01:47:05,280 Speaker 2: beating the. 2391 01:47:05,280 --> 01:47:07,000 Speaker 3: Eagles for a second time. This year for the second 2392 01:47:07,000 --> 01:47:07,759 Speaker 3: time in three weeks. 2393 01:47:07,960 --> 01:47:11,680 Speaker 4: Damn Yeah, that's pretty balls yourself. You got some of 2394 01:47:11,680 --> 01:47:12,960 Speaker 4: that Jackson Dart energy. 2395 01:47:13,080 --> 01:47:15,400 Speaker 3: I do, all right. I've taken too many shots to 2396 01:47:15,400 --> 01:47:16,559 Speaker 3: the head. So that's what it is. 2397 01:47:16,760 --> 01:47:19,639 Speaker 4: There's your college excuse me, there's your NFL six pack. 2398 01:47:20,160 --> 01:47:25,480 Speaker 4: Let's get to our college football conversation college football forecast 2399 01:47:25,560 --> 01:47:29,880 Speaker 4: with f and Kevin. We talked about this earlier with 2400 01:47:30,000 --> 01:47:35,679 Speaker 4: Petros Papadakis. You really think UCLA has any shot against Indiana? 2401 01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:40,599 Speaker 4: So win or cover the spread? So I guess covering 2402 01:47:40,640 --> 01:47:44,360 Speaker 4: the spread because Indiana is that good right now? Would 2403 01:47:44,960 --> 01:47:48,080 Speaker 4: show something from UCLA just covering, Absolutely not. 2404 01:47:48,280 --> 01:47:49,760 Speaker 3: But twenty five I think is what I want. 2405 01:47:49,760 --> 01:47:51,200 Speaker 4: Twenty six and a half is what I'm looking at 2406 01:47:51,280 --> 01:47:54,280 Speaker 4: right now. Signetti does not care. He's gonna run it up. 2407 01:47:54,360 --> 01:47:56,720 Speaker 3: He even said and that that's what was it sixty one. 2408 01:47:56,760 --> 01:47:59,320 Speaker 2: They scored sixty one points against Illinois earlier this year, 2409 01:47:59,760 --> 01:48:01,280 Speaker 2: and they could have called off the dogs when they 2410 01:48:01,320 --> 01:48:03,920 Speaker 2: score thirty eight. He was like, you never know, the 2411 01:48:03,960 --> 01:48:05,680 Speaker 2: team might come back. We want to make sure we 2412 01:48:05,760 --> 01:48:07,479 Speaker 2: keep our foot on the gas and play every single 2413 01:48:07,680 --> 01:48:09,960 Speaker 2: you know, the whole cliche of you know, we want 2414 01:48:10,000 --> 01:48:11,439 Speaker 2: to keep our foot on the gas and play the 2415 01:48:11,439 --> 01:48:13,439 Speaker 2: same way in the first quarter in the fourth quarter. 2416 01:48:13,600 --> 01:48:15,880 Speaker 2: We want to play the same way, whether upper hundred 2417 01:48:15,960 --> 01:48:19,280 Speaker 2: or down one hundred. He believes it and his players 2418 01:48:19,320 --> 01:48:19,880 Speaker 2: play that way. 2419 01:48:19,960 --> 01:48:23,280 Speaker 4: That's that. Who was it that would always have guys 2420 01:48:23,360 --> 01:48:27,479 Speaker 4: firing off the line? He coached Rutgers Greg greg Giano. 2421 01:48:27,640 --> 01:48:29,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, he tried to do in the NFL when he 2422 01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:30,720 Speaker 2: was with the Buccaneers. That did not go over well. 2423 01:48:30,760 --> 01:48:31,400 Speaker 4: No, it did not well. 2424 01:48:31,400 --> 01:48:32,760 Speaker 2: By the way, things are not going well for him 2425 01:48:32,800 --> 01:48:34,599 Speaker 2: right now. A Rutgers by the way, either he's back. 2426 01:48:34,640 --> 01:48:37,000 Speaker 2: We talk about a dog guess game. Who's watching Rutgers 2427 01:48:37,040 --> 01:48:40,559 Speaker 2: in Purdue today? Issues raising their hand for that one? 2428 01:48:40,960 --> 01:48:41,439 Speaker 6: Not many? 2429 01:48:41,640 --> 01:48:43,040 Speaker 4: So is in trouble. 2430 01:48:43,080 --> 01:48:44,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think UCLA drops this one. 2431 01:48:44,720 --> 01:48:48,240 Speaker 4: Even though they're averaging thirty three points per game since 2432 01:48:48,320 --> 01:48:51,759 Speaker 4: Jerry Neuheisel took over his doc. Before that was fourteen 2433 01:48:51,800 --> 01:48:55,280 Speaker 4: points per game. Eco's playing well the same Maryland no 2434 01:48:55,560 --> 01:48:59,759 Speaker 4: any respect. Top five scoring offense, top five defense. 2435 01:48:59,800 --> 01:49:02,880 Speaker 2: He went into Oregon and put it on in Eugene 2436 01:49:02,880 --> 01:49:03,719 Speaker 2: and put it on the Ducks. 2437 01:49:03,800 --> 01:49:05,639 Speaker 4: No, the best part of that to me was their 2438 01:49:05,720 --> 01:49:08,120 Speaker 4: quarterback Fernando Mendoza Andando. 2439 01:49:08,320 --> 01:49:08,559 Speaker 6: Yeah. 2440 01:49:08,720 --> 01:49:12,840 Speaker 4: Uh that picked six he threw and then responding backwards, Yes, 2441 01:49:12,920 --> 01:49:17,559 Speaker 4: with a touchdown drive. Incredible the confidence it takes to 2442 01:49:17,640 --> 01:49:21,200 Speaker 4: do that at Austin. All right, moving on number three, 2443 01:49:21,520 --> 01:49:24,400 Speaker 4: Texas A and M. They're AU minus two and a 2444 01:49:24,439 --> 01:49:27,200 Speaker 4: half at number twenty, LSU, I did bring this up 2445 01:49:27,280 --> 01:49:30,840 Speaker 4: last week. I asked you, is Brian Kelly in trouble? 2446 01:49:31,280 --> 01:49:33,400 Speaker 4: Could could he be on the hot seat next? 2447 01:49:33,479 --> 01:49:35,400 Speaker 2: Considering the way things are going right now in this 2448 01:49:35,439 --> 01:49:38,280 Speaker 2: college football landscape and the amount of the buyouts don't 2449 01:49:38,280 --> 01:49:38,920 Speaker 2: seem to matter. 2450 01:49:39,320 --> 01:49:42,040 Speaker 4: You find out and vote, yeah, you find one booster. 2451 01:49:41,800 --> 01:49:43,200 Speaker 3: Is willing to pay a guy to go away. 2452 01:49:43,840 --> 01:49:45,680 Speaker 2: I mean if LSU at this point, which by the way, 2453 01:49:45,680 --> 01:49:47,200 Speaker 2: I do not expect them to be Texas Texas A 2454 01:49:47,280 --> 01:49:49,200 Speaker 2: and M. Texas A and M is complete. They're good 2455 01:49:49,200 --> 01:49:51,439 Speaker 2: on offense, they're good on defense. LSU is still trying 2456 01:49:51,439 --> 01:49:54,160 Speaker 2: to figure out what's going on on the offense offensive 2457 01:49:54,160 --> 01:49:56,080 Speaker 2: side of the ball, which is Brian Kelly's baby, by 2458 01:49:56,120 --> 01:49:58,519 Speaker 2: the way, his job and having figured it out. 2459 01:49:58,400 --> 01:50:00,759 Speaker 4: That's what that's what just gonna make him lose his job. 2460 01:50:00,920 --> 01:50:04,160 Speaker 2: I So Texas A and M ends up covering the 2461 01:50:04,160 --> 01:50:06,120 Speaker 2: spread here. I don't think they run LSU off the field, 2462 01:50:06,120 --> 01:50:07,880 Speaker 2: but I see them winning by a touchdown or so. 2463 01:50:08,439 --> 01:50:11,519 Speaker 2: And LSU officially with their third loss after this, because 2464 01:50:11,520 --> 01:50:13,439 Speaker 2: they're five and two coming into this, will be officially, 2465 01:50:14,320 --> 01:50:17,280 Speaker 2: unofficially officially eliminated. Actually, I should say from the CFP, 2466 01:50:17,479 --> 01:50:19,639 Speaker 2: they're not gonna make it with three losses. 2467 01:50:19,720 --> 01:50:20,200 Speaker 4: They're out. 2468 01:50:20,280 --> 01:50:22,559 Speaker 3: They're out, You're out. And they do not win this 2469 01:50:22,600 --> 01:50:23,519 Speaker 3: game against Texas. 2470 01:50:23,320 --> 01:50:23,720 Speaker 6: A and M. 2471 01:50:23,760 --> 01:50:26,519 Speaker 4: This is pathetic. They haven't scored more than twenty four 2472 01:50:26,560 --> 01:50:30,640 Speaker 4: points against an FBS opponent. They're averaging just twenty and 2473 01:50:30,680 --> 01:50:34,759 Speaker 4: a half against anybody that's close to quality. And obviously 2474 01:50:34,760 --> 01:50:39,000 Speaker 4: they lost last week to Vandy, so yeah, I think 2475 01:50:39,040 --> 01:50:40,560 Speaker 4: Brian Kelly's in trouble. 2476 01:50:40,360 --> 01:50:42,559 Speaker 2: Vandy's which is equality loss. By the way, this isn't 2477 01:50:43,240 --> 01:50:47,040 Speaker 2: old school Vanderbilt. So but they're supposed to win more 2478 01:50:47,080 --> 01:50:49,080 Speaker 2: of these games. They're supposed to put up some points 2479 01:50:49,080 --> 01:50:49,439 Speaker 2: here and there. 2480 01:50:49,479 --> 01:50:50,839 Speaker 3: They're supposed to be part of the elite. 2481 01:50:50,880 --> 01:50:55,200 Speaker 4: The entire offseason is spent talking about fixing their offense. Yeah, 2482 01:50:55,240 --> 01:50:57,080 Speaker 4: and we can't fix it, and they are. 2483 01:50:57,200 --> 01:50:58,840 Speaker 2: They only have the number twenty next to the LA 2484 01:50:58,960 --> 01:51:01,160 Speaker 2: because they're LSU because the way if you watch them 2485 01:51:01,160 --> 01:51:03,880 Speaker 2: play this year, they're not that good as a team. 2486 01:51:03,960 --> 01:51:04,599 Speaker 3: They just aren't. 2487 01:51:04,680 --> 01:51:09,000 Speaker 4: That's fair SEC bias, SEC inflation. Always where else do 2488 01:51:09,000 --> 01:51:10,439 Speaker 4: you want to go here? Ole Miss? 2489 01:51:10,439 --> 01:51:10,599 Speaker 9: Well? 2490 01:51:10,680 --> 01:51:12,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, because that's the big one in the SEC. 2491 01:51:12,479 --> 01:51:16,360 Speaker 2: With the matchup between ole Miss and Oklahoma, Oklahoma's defense 2492 01:51:16,400 --> 01:51:16,720 Speaker 2: is real. 2493 01:51:16,840 --> 01:51:19,040 Speaker 3: Ole Miss always finds a way to disappoint. 2494 01:51:19,240 --> 01:51:22,240 Speaker 2: You said, I set this last week until unless and 2495 01:51:22,320 --> 01:51:24,840 Speaker 2: until Lank Kiffin gets one of those marquee victories in 2496 01:51:24,880 --> 01:51:27,839 Speaker 2: conference against the top ten opponent, I ain't picking them, Yeah. 2497 01:51:27,640 --> 01:51:29,200 Speaker 3: Because he always finds a way to fold. 2498 01:51:29,280 --> 01:51:31,960 Speaker 2: Couldn't be Georgia, No, No, So now you hit the 2499 01:51:32,040 --> 01:51:34,160 Speaker 2: road against Oklahoma, one of the great defense. 2500 01:51:34,680 --> 01:51:37,400 Speaker 3: Uh Mattiir was solid last week, nothing spectacular. 2501 01:51:38,360 --> 01:51:41,000 Speaker 4: He still doesn't look right, averaging like one hundred and 2502 01:51:41,040 --> 01:51:43,439 Speaker 4: eighty six yards per game since he came back from 2503 01:51:43,439 --> 01:51:44,120 Speaker 4: the thumb injury. 2504 01:51:44,160 --> 01:51:47,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so Oklahoma leaves a lot to be desired offensively, 2505 01:51:47,040 --> 01:51:48,720 Speaker 2: which is why ole Miss still has a shot in 2506 01:51:48,720 --> 01:51:51,760 Speaker 2: this game. Because as good as Oklahoma is defensively, Ole 2507 01:51:51,840 --> 01:51:53,599 Speaker 2: Miss can't score enough points on offense. 2508 01:51:53,640 --> 01:51:55,000 Speaker 3: They're not gonna get shut out. 2509 01:51:55,000 --> 01:51:57,479 Speaker 4: Right, They're getting five and a half by the way, 2510 01:51:57,520 --> 01:51:58,160 Speaker 4: Oh yes. 2511 01:51:58,120 --> 01:52:00,840 Speaker 3: They are switch. I love that line, to be honest 2512 01:52:00,880 --> 01:52:01,120 Speaker 3: with you. 2513 01:52:01,240 --> 01:52:02,320 Speaker 4: So you think they're covering. 2514 01:52:02,360 --> 01:52:04,280 Speaker 2: I think all misfinds way to cover that spread. I 2515 01:52:04,280 --> 01:52:07,000 Speaker 2: won't say easily, but I can see all miscovering the spread. 2516 01:52:07,080 --> 01:52:08,400 Speaker 2: I can see him winning the game. I think old 2517 01:52:08,439 --> 01:52:11,559 Speaker 2: mis can score more points offensively than Oklahoma can. 2518 01:52:11,479 --> 01:52:15,839 Speaker 4: Last one quickly, number fifteen, Miszoo at number ten Vandy. 2519 01:52:15,960 --> 01:52:18,960 Speaker 4: Vandy has never been ranked top ten. They're there now 2520 01:52:19,000 --> 01:52:20,240 Speaker 4: after beating LSU. 2521 01:52:20,400 --> 01:52:23,519 Speaker 2: There top ten like in the nineteen forties or something, 2522 01:52:23,520 --> 01:52:25,439 Speaker 2: but I would say stone count and the modern era 2523 01:52:25,880 --> 01:52:28,679 Speaker 2: Vanderbilt has not. And this is also a de facto 2524 01:52:28,720 --> 01:52:31,080 Speaker 2: elimination game to a certain degree too, which isn't fair 2525 01:52:31,400 --> 01:52:35,200 Speaker 2: though it's weird. They're both SEC teams, but they're basically 2526 01:52:35,479 --> 01:52:38,320 Speaker 2: not seen as blue bloods. So if it comes down 2527 01:52:38,320 --> 01:52:40,400 Speaker 2: to a two loss Vanderbilt and a two loss, let's 2528 01:52:40,439 --> 01:52:42,559 Speaker 2: just say Alabama just to throw a team out there, 2529 01:52:43,160 --> 01:52:44,880 Speaker 2: Alabama's gonna get the benefit of the doubt. 2530 01:52:44,920 --> 01:52:46,719 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that's just how it works. 2531 01:52:46,960 --> 01:52:49,200 Speaker 2: So if you're Vandy or Missouri and you're not necessarily 2532 01:52:49,200 --> 01:52:51,200 Speaker 2: a blue blood in the SEC, this is a de 2533 01:52:51,240 --> 01:52:52,320 Speaker 2: facto playoff game. 2534 01:52:52,200 --> 01:52:54,519 Speaker 4: For you, I think you gotta be able to win Missouri. 2535 01:52:54,600 --> 01:52:56,839 Speaker 4: To me, not just in this game. They're in trouble 2536 01:52:56,880 --> 01:52:59,240 Speaker 4: in general because they still have Texas A and M. 2537 01:52:59,280 --> 01:53:01,720 Speaker 4: They still have a home, but they still have Arkansas 2538 01:53:01,760 --> 01:53:04,839 Speaker 4: like they're gonna have probably three more losses. I already 2539 01:53:04,840 --> 01:53:07,360 Speaker 4: have eliminated them, to be honest, Yeah, which is not 2540 01:53:07,479 --> 01:53:09,920 Speaker 4: fair because they played Bama close at home and that's 2541 01:53:09,960 --> 01:53:10,599 Speaker 4: the only loss. 2542 01:53:10,640 --> 01:53:12,360 Speaker 2: I'm not willing to do that because I do think 2543 01:53:12,400 --> 01:53:13,599 Speaker 2: they're still a quality team. 2544 01:53:13,640 --> 01:53:13,800 Speaker 1: Now. 2545 01:53:13,840 --> 01:53:16,200 Speaker 3: Their best weapon Hardy a Hardy. 2546 01:53:16,200 --> 01:53:18,519 Speaker 2: They're running back the transferming Louisiana Tech has not played 2547 01:53:18,520 --> 01:53:20,400 Speaker 2: well the last couple of weeks, and he has boo 2548 01:53:20,439 --> 01:53:22,760 Speaker 2: eyed them. And the problem is for Bulah is a 2549 01:53:22,760 --> 01:53:24,560 Speaker 2: good quarterback, but not when you have to put the 2550 01:53:24,600 --> 01:53:26,680 Speaker 2: team on his shoulders. So if they run into a 2551 01:53:26,720 --> 01:53:29,040 Speaker 2: situation where they cannot run the ball, they can't win. 2552 01:53:29,960 --> 01:53:32,960 Speaker 2: Vanderbilt is spectacular because Diego Pavia can beat you with 2553 01:53:32,960 --> 01:53:35,000 Speaker 2: his legs and his arm and is carrying that offense. 2554 01:53:35,040 --> 01:53:37,280 Speaker 2: And really the only reason they lost to Alabama it 2555 01:53:37,320 --> 01:53:39,880 Speaker 2: was because they did what they usually don't, turn the 2556 01:53:39,920 --> 01:53:42,640 Speaker 2: ball over, specifically in the red zone. They don't do that. 2557 01:53:42,720 --> 01:53:45,280 Speaker 2: Vanderbilt actually beats Alabama and it's still undefeated right now. 2558 01:53:45,320 --> 01:53:48,640 Speaker 4: I wonder if Vandy and they shouldn't look past Missouri. 2559 01:53:48,720 --> 01:53:53,960 Speaker 4: Of course, especially for Texas the week after, but Texas 2560 01:53:53,960 --> 01:53:56,439 Speaker 4: still has that name, it still has that cachet to it. 2561 01:53:56,520 --> 01:53:58,920 Speaker 4: I wonder if that's an element of this game at all. 2562 01:53:58,960 --> 01:54:01,120 Speaker 2: I don't think Vandy over Loood. I don't think their 2563 01:54:01,200 --> 01:54:03,040 Speaker 2: head coach allows them to do that. In Missouri, I 2564 01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:05,240 Speaker 2: do think is a quality opponent. I know that if 2565 01:54:05,240 --> 01:54:07,320 Speaker 2: you look at their resume, they haven't really beaten anybody 2566 01:54:07,360 --> 01:54:09,840 Speaker 2: of note and their losses to Alabama, but to your point, 2567 01:54:09,840 --> 01:54:11,720 Speaker 2: it was a close loss. I still think Missouri is 2568 01:54:11,760 --> 01:54:14,800 Speaker 2: a good quality SEC opponent. I do not think that 2569 01:54:14,880 --> 01:54:17,120 Speaker 2: Vanderbilt takes them lightly, and that's why I think Vandy 2570 01:54:17,120 --> 01:54:17,840 Speaker 2: covers a spread. 2571 01:54:18,120 --> 01:54:21,920 Speaker 4: There, you have it, your college football forecast. As we 2572 01:54:21,960 --> 01:54:25,519 Speaker 4: get set for games just mere hours from now, what 2573 01:54:25,640 --> 01:54:28,479 Speaker 4: about the game we've been playing?

My fault with I 2643 01:57:29,760 --> 01:57:33,920 Speaker 4: also trap have the Chiefs here because apparently I should 2644 01:57:33,960 --> 01:57:36,640 Speaker 4: have taken them last week against the Raiders that would 2645 01:57:36,640 --> 01:57:39,600 Speaker 4: have been easy money. They were like minus fourteen. Where 2646 01:57:39,600 --> 01:57:40,720 Speaker 4: do they win by thirty? 2647 01:57:40,920 --> 01:57:41,440 Speaker 3: Thirty one? 2648 01:57:41,680 --> 01:57:43,680 Speaker 4: To be exactly how many first downs the Raiders have? 2649 01:57:43,760 --> 01:57:44,000 Speaker 6: Three? 2650 01:57:44,920 --> 01:57:49,280 Speaker 2: The Raiders had ran thirty plays. The Chiefs converted thirty 2651 01:57:49,280 --> 01:57:52,560 Speaker 2: first downs, not like they had thirty points, so that 2652 01:57:52,680 --> 01:57:55,360 Speaker 2: these had more points than the Raiders had have plays run. 2653 01:57:55,600 --> 01:57:56,720 Speaker 3: That's insane. 2654 01:57:56,960 --> 01:57:59,840 Speaker 4: We're both going with the Chiefs minus twelve on Monday 2655 01:58:00,080 --> 01:58:03,000 Speaker 4: Football against the Commanders. Who cares a quarterback? What's the 2656 01:58:03,040 --> 01:58:03,720 Speaker 4: other on for you? 2657 01:58:03,880 --> 01:58:05,680 Speaker 2: My other on is the differ Broncos three and a 2658 01:58:05,720 --> 01:58:08,200 Speaker 2: half point favorites over the Cowboys and other Cowboys offense 2659 01:58:08,280 --> 01:58:11,600 Speaker 2: high flying can play extremely well the different Broncos, and 2660 01:58:11,640 --> 01:58:13,360 Speaker 2: I feel like I've been saying this all season long, 2661 01:58:13,400 --> 01:58:15,959 Speaker 2: I'm expecting their offense to wake up and be consistent. 2662 01:58:16,400 --> 01:58:18,360 Speaker 3: They had a great quarter last week. 2663 01:58:18,560 --> 01:58:20,360 Speaker 2: How they finished, I'm not one hundred percent sure, but 2664 01:58:20,400 --> 01:58:22,800 Speaker 2: I trust that Broncos defense to play well against Dallas. 2665 01:58:22,960 --> 01:58:24,760 Speaker 2: I think the Broncos got to get that cover the 2666 01:58:24,760 --> 01:58:26,640 Speaker 2: spread at three and a half points over the Cowboys. 2667 01:58:26,800 --> 01:58:29,480 Speaker 4: All right, I'm gonna go with from my other on, 2668 01:58:29,560 --> 01:58:33,960 Speaker 4: my other favorite the New England Patriots minus seven at 2669 01:58:33,960 --> 01:58:37,000 Speaker 4: home against the Cleveland Browns. The Browns got their big 2670 01:58:37,080 --> 01:58:40,959 Speaker 4: victory over the Miami Dolphins at home, and the Patriots 2671 01:58:41,000 --> 01:58:44,560 Speaker 4: are rolling May's balin man. They won in Tennessee. He's 2672 01:58:44,600 --> 01:58:49,520 Speaker 4: putting up completion percentage records like it's incredible what they're 2673 01:58:49,520 --> 01:58:53,800 Speaker 4: doing right now. I like New England laying the points 2674 01:58:54,520 --> 01:58:57,400 Speaker 4: seven at home over the Cleveland Browns. 2675 01:58:57,520 --> 01:59:00,960 Speaker 2: All right, my off, Ravens seven point favorites over the Bears. 2676 01:59:01,000 --> 01:59:02,920 Speaker 2: I already talked about it earlier. I think the Ravens 2677 01:59:02,920 --> 01:59:05,200 Speaker 2: are done. I'm calling the Chicago Bears to cover the 2678 01:59:05,200 --> 01:59:06,960 Speaker 2: spread and get that victory in Baltimore. 2679 01:59:07,360 --> 01:59:12,000 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm gonna go with the San Francisco forty nine 2680 01:59:12,120 --> 01:59:15,640 Speaker 4: ers on the road against the Houston Texans. Niners are 2681 01:59:15,640 --> 01:59:19,160 Speaker 4: getting two and a half against the Texans team that 2682 01:59:20,120 --> 01:59:22,520 Speaker 4: you know, the defense ain't that bad, but their offensive 2683 01:59:22,800 --> 01:59:27,720 Speaker 4: time is rough. And I just like the competency that 2684 01:59:27,760 --> 01:59:30,320 Speaker 4: we've seen from the San Francisco forty nine ers. No 2685 01:59:30,400 --> 01:59:33,400 Speaker 4: matter who is available, they get coached up right, They're 2686 01:59:33,440 --> 01:59:36,040 Speaker 4: getting two and a half points. Maybe they only lose 2687 01:59:36,080 --> 01:59:39,160 Speaker 4: by two. It's possible, and I'm golden. 2688 01:59:39,040 --> 01:59:40,160 Speaker 3: My other off. 2689 01:59:40,160 --> 01:59:42,000 Speaker 2: I'm going with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as three and 2690 01:59:42,000 --> 01:59:44,560 Speaker 2: a half point favorites over Breeze Saints. Like I said, 2691 01:59:45,000 --> 01:59:47,040 Speaker 2: I think that's gonna be a really entertaining game, and 2692 01:59:47,080 --> 01:59:48,760 Speaker 2: I think the Saints actually find a way to cover 2693 01:59:48,800 --> 01:59:49,480 Speaker 2: the spread. 2694 01:59:49,160 --> 01:59:50,120 Speaker 3: And make that game close. 2695 01:59:51,160 --> 01:59:52,120 Speaker 4: They're betting on the Saints. 2696 01:59:52,200 --> 01:59:53,960 Speaker 3: I'm betting on the New Orleans Saints. 2697 01:59:54,040 --> 01:59:55,360 Speaker 4: Yes, I am you sure about this? 2698 01:59:55,520 --> 01:59:55,720 Speaker 6: Hey? 2699 01:59:56,360 --> 01:59:57,760 Speaker 3: Who was four and oh last week? 2700 01:59:58,560 --> 01:59:59,440 Speaker 4: What about the week before? 2701 01:59:59,440 --> 01:59:59,640 Speaker 6: Though? 2702 01:59:59,680 --> 01:59:59,960 Speaker 3: Exactly? 2703 02:00:00,240 --> 02:00:02,880 Speaker 2: Why are you talking about old stuff?

They're plus three Aaron 2707 02:00:12,080 --> 02:00:15,880 Speaker 4: Rodgers versus the Packers. I expect their defense to play 2708 02:00:15,880 --> 02:00:18,520 Speaker 4: better at some point, and you called it last week. 2709 02:00:18,520 --> 02:00:22,640 Speaker 4: With the Packers, they've been winning, but in very unimpressive fashion. 2710 02:00:22,640 --> 02:00:24,880 Speaker 4: It ain't pretty at least Micah showed up last week. 2711 02:00:24,960 --> 02:00:27,320 Speaker 4: But I got Pittsburgh covering plus three at home over 2712 02:00:27,320 --> 02:00:27,839 Speaker 4: the Packers. 2713 02:00:27,920 --> 02:00:28,400 Speaker 3: Beautiful. 2714 02:00:28,440 --> 02:00:30,720 Speaker 2: Thanks Debrie, thanks to Mark, Thanks to you for listening. 2715 02:00:30,800 --> 02:00:32,960 Speaker 2: The Fellas coming up next here on FSR.
