1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 1: Mom Fannehill and he's got Stills, who's gonna take it 2 00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 1: seventy four yards for the touchdown. Dalton steps up away 3 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:13,040 Speaker 1: from the pressure and he goes to breed it's down 4 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: there for the touchdown. There are Thursday nights where I 5 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 1: just can't wait to talk about the football. There's too 6 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: much to talk about, and we go on honking here 7 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 1: for seven or eight minutes. I'm Greg Rosenthal with Chris Wesley, 8 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 1: and this is not one of those nights. This is 9 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: not one of those nights. Bengals win twenty two to seven. 10 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: Even Jim Nance couldn't pretend that he liked this game 11 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: until I just heard that highlight of the Kenny Stills 12 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 1: touchdown bomb the last three and a half quarters of 13 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: the game made me forget that the Dolphins ever held 14 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: a lead in this game? Yeah, or uh really did 15 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: anything positive offensively whatsoever. We're gonna talk about this Thursday 16 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: night game, and then we're gonna get to the week 17 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: for preview with Dan Hanss and Mark Sessler. A lot 18 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: of fire on today's show was a good one, so 19 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: so stick with that. But let's start with a j Green, 20 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 1: because uh, he's the best player that played tonight and 21 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: it's nice to see him lighting it up on the 22 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: big stage. By the end of the third quarter, he 23 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: had more yards I think a hundred and sixty six 24 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: than the Dolphins entire offense had. He was beating Tony Lippett, 25 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: who had taken the place of Byron Maxwell the bench 26 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: Byron Maxwell and it didn't matter who they put on 27 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: a J. Green. He was just having a field day. 28 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 1: He was uncoverable. And I think Getty Dalton has played 29 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: pretty well this year. Don't think he's the reason why 30 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: they're one and two. I think you saw that tonight. 31 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: He's been doing work. They're moving the ball pretty well. 32 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: They did about what you would expected, but they've struggled 33 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: in the red zone. They should have put this game 34 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: away a lot earlier, but it ultimately didn't matter because 35 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: their defense was just dominating. I mean the the Dolphins 36 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: only had two drives out of eleven that went longer 37 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: than four plays. I mean, they just could. They had 38 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: five first downs. I think for the first nine drives 39 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: of the game they were dysfunctionally. Reminded me of a 40 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: mirror image of the Week one game, except this time 41 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: Kenny still has caught his touchdown bomb, whereas the first 42 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: game he missed it. But that game, by the end 43 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: of the third quarter, their receivers had about ten yards 44 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: on five catches. In this game at halftime, they had 45 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: three completions and Kenny Still's accounted for all of their 46 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: yards and really on just on one play. Adam Gaze 47 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: through four weeks has made the Dolphins offense worse, does not. 48 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: I expect it to get better, expected to get more exciting. 49 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 1: This is the second game, including that Week one game, 50 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: where they've been held under two and twenty five yards, 51 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: which is not something you see in the NFL too 52 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: often in the year two thousand and sixteen. So that's 53 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: half their games. They said that, and Ryan dan Hill 54 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: said after the game, this is one of the worst 55 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: performances that he thinks they've had and or the worst 56 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: performance they've had in a long time. And he says 57 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: we're in a dark spot right now, channeling his Intercessler, 58 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 1: They're downright dysfunctional. And some of that's on Tannehill because 59 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: his shaky pocket presence came back to haunt him in 60 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: a big way tonight. It's hard to separate him from 61 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: the uh ineptitude surrounding him. When you see Carlos Dunlop 62 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: just going right past Juan James at right tackle, you 63 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: see Geno Atkins pushing your mom bush Rod and Billy 64 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: Turner back into Ryan Tannehill. The Bengals defensive line dominated 65 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 1: that matchup, and Tannehill really couldn't get out of his 66 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: own way, literally on a couple of pins. Well, that's 67 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: that's the thing with Tannehill. There's always reasons. It's always 68 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: been a bad offensive life. But someday can he overcome 69 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: those reasons. I think the rest of this season for 70 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: the Dolphins is in large part about Ryan Tannehill trying 71 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: to prove himself to Adam Gaze and to the Dolphins 72 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: that he's the guy that of the future. And I 73 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: don't think if things don't change that Adam Gaze will 74 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: want him, that he'll want to draft a new quarterback 75 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: or get a new quarterback because he doesn't want to 76 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: put his whole career on this guy. We've seen him 77 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: make some throws this this year. Yeah, the second half 78 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,119 Speaker 1: of the Patriots game, but you cannot have a quarterback 79 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: who goes entire quarters and entire halves not moving the offense. 80 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 1: You can't win that way. And they talked a lot 81 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 1: about Okay, he can change the plays at the line 82 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, He's going to be able to dissect the defenses. 83 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: That's not something he's known for so far. That's not 84 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: going well. He's playing like a guy who's almost thinking 85 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: too much. So this Dolphins defense hung in there, but 86 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 1: ultimately this is a bad one in three team. I 87 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: don't know if we really learn a ton about the 88 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: Bengals other than they can dominate a bad opponent, and 89 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: that's good. They got to two and two. We learned 90 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: a couple of things. They miss Tyler Effort still in 91 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 1: the red zone that I believe they got touchdowns on 92 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: four of fourteen trips to the red zone, which is unacceptable. 93 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: And they have not thrown a pass to a tight 94 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 1: end in the red zone this year, so they really 95 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: miss him. And then the running game has been ineffective 96 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 1: for fifteen of sixteen quarters this year. The opening drive 97 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 1: against the Broncos yards fifty of which came on one 98 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: fifty yard run by Jeremy Hill. Those two Jeremy Hill 99 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: and do you have do you have any Giovanni Bernard 100 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: averaging three point four yards per carry, which you can't 101 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: win that way. No, but they showed on defense that 102 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: they can dominate a bad opponent and that's important. They 103 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: move forward with with a two and two record. Uh, 104 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: the Dolphins get to go home for four straight weeks. 105 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: They don't go on the road until mid November, so 106 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: that's a chance for them to get healthy. But I 107 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 1: don't think they will if a lot more high hopes 108 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: about the rest of the league being more entertaining than 109 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: this game. So let's get to those good games. Let's 110 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: send it over to Dan the Around the NFL Podcast 111 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 1: rocks harder than Joe Philbin at a Genesis concert.

Week four that is the quarter pole, Like 137 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: we're already about to hit the quarter pole of the season, 138 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: which also means and I'm almost afraid to look at them, 139 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: but maybe they won't be so bad. We have to 140 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: re examine our preseason power poll and then do our 141 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: second round of voting. Well, we are doing that. I 142 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: was told by um my new boss David Really that 143 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: I will be authoring the kind of recap for that 144 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: next week.

It was small matters. 150 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: But he you know, he'll drop a hammer now and 151 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: then he'll surprise you with the hammer drop.

Yeah, I gotta talk to Ili about that. 155 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: We gotta shake things up a little bit. Uh So, Yes, 156 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: a lot of games to get to and um let's 157 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: do it. In fact, I do want to say before 158 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: we start, I haven't done this in a while, but 159 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: a lot of things clicking right now because behind the 160 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: glass is La Side, who is taking taking the chair 161 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: in a more full time capacity now that the irishman 162 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: uh is no longer in the studio.

Big chair now full, but I'm ready 165 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: to get back in the swing. You know. You hear 166 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: that voice though, you said only a little bitter sweet, 167 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 1: like it's mostly sweets at that tiny little bit better, 168 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: but you're you're partying in the streets. Maybe a little 169 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 1: partying in the streets. Heard from her fellow staff back 170 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 1: there that she's she runs a tight ship and you know, 171 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: sweet on the surface, but not afraid to mix it 172 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 1: up and give out orders and delegate. I like it. 173 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: So anyway, so Sydney's back Irish, just downstairs helping out 174 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: one last day before he goes on to the next step, 175 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: whatever that may be.

That's if you take home a 185 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,439 Speaker 1: report card with B minus is on it, you're not 186 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: gonna get unless you're in one of those is.

It 190 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: depends on the standard you have set for yourself.

With a bunch 193 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: of geniuses in this room, I don't know how I 194 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: hang every week. I can do.

Attached to it a gift certificate 197 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: for quite a few sandwiches. I would say, really alright 198 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: and write a man of his word. He is all right, 199 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: So thank you, Mr Flame. Welcome to the round the 200 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: NFL family. Let's start with the previews, folks, and the 201 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: first game we're gonna talk about the Indianapolis Colts at 202 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars, a game that Colts team that got 203 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: the big win they needed at home against the Chargers 204 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: last week. And then you got the Jaguars, who we 205 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: forked in our last show. So I don't even I 206 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: guess it would. It would qualify as a starving dog game. 207 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: The Jaguars are oh and three. History tells us they're dead. 208 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: That history tells us they're dead. They're a dead dog 209 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,959 Speaker 1: according to you. I don't think they're necessarily dead. I mean, 210 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: I know he's stuck a fork in then, but do 211 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: you understand the segment we did on the last He 212 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: stuck a fork in three teams last year, including the 213 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 1: entire AFC South except for the Colt So I need 214 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: to accept their dead. If you voted to for it 215 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:20,520 Speaker 1: means nothing to you that it doesn't because J. J. 216 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 1: Watt is not coming back this season. The Texans are 217 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: a flowed team. It's a flowed division. You never know 218 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 1: what could happen. That's all you got. You undermined our 219 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: segment from the other day, and that's all you got. 220 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 1: Let me jump in and say the Jaguars quarterback is broken. 221 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: He has a long hitch in his delivery. He's playing 222 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 1: like he did as a rookie. His footwork is a mess. 223 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: He's kicking his back leg out like a baseball pitcher. 224 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: It's a long wind up and this is why he's struggling. 225 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: I don't think that's fixable, fixable in the near future. 226 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 1: And I think that the other quarterback, Andrew Luck was 227 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: absolutely spectacular in his ball placement and pocket movement last week. 228 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 1: Do you think that it's a coaching thing with Bortles, 229 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: because I almost want to go too. Before his head 230 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 1: was filled with a bunch of nonsense and he was 231 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 1: kind of just on fire plane in preseason number one 232 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,199 Speaker 1: and just using his physical gifts, he seems something is 233 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: not right, and I look at the coaching staff. He's regress. 234 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 1: It's not just physically, it's his decision making has been bad. 235 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: But this is the same problem that hounded him as 236 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: a rookie. It was the book on him coming out 237 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: of school that he had to tweak his delivery. He 238 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: did with Jordan Palmer before his rookie year. It regressed 239 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: during his rookie year, then he worked with Tom House 240 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: to fix it last offseason. He fixed it last off season, 241 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: and now he's regressed again. But to me, his biggest 242 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,479 Speaker 1: problem and his accuracy is a is a big problem, 243 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: but his number one problem is reading coverages and going 244 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 1: through his reads, and defense is taking things away from him. 245 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,199 Speaker 1: He he had eleven passes defense in that game. It's 246 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: it's not just the reads. It's because his delivery is 247 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: so long that the cornerbacks are obviously going to get 248 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: to more balls and deflect them. But when the delivery 249 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: takes that long, so many of them though we're linebackers 250 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: underneath that he never saw he could have had five 251 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: or six interceptions last week and this game. I'm looking 252 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: forward to this game. I know they're not two great 253 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: teams right now, but Luck and Bordles to me, are 254 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: two of the biggest quarterback stories of this season. Andrew 255 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: Luck's chance to reascend and show us, even though there's 256 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: a bad team around him, that he's a top two 257 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 1: or three type of quarterback and he's had two incredible games. 258 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: And then Blake Bortles, I think having to stretch that 259 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: we haven't seen him be this bad since early in 260 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: his rookie year and making everyone wonder is he the 261 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: future in Jacksonville? Those are two big stories. Clydie in 262 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 1: this game, I got to agree I think it's a 263 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: big deal that Miles jack has played sixteen snaps, uh, 264 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 1: and that's you know, you want to see him out 265 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: on the field more. But I look at Jalen Ramsey 266 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: three games this season. Jalen Ramsey to me is one 267 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: of the most interesting players to watch on game pass. 268 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,560 Speaker 1: He is fascinating and they found a star player. I 269 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: think I believe Pro Football Focus has him for the 270 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 1: stingiest cornerback in terms of yards per route run this season. 271 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 1: Every the're back in the NFL, he's the stingiest. He's physical, man, 272 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: he just like away from the player, just knocked someone 273 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: on the ground, Like I kind of wanted to. I 274 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: wrote an article this week about some of the worst 275 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: offseason pickups and I kind of wanted to get after 276 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: the Jaguars all their moves not working out. And then 277 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 1: I looked at it and I thought about it, and 278 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,199 Speaker 1: you know, Chris Ivory is not working out so far. 279 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: I didn't like that late last game they got very 280 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: conservative and ran the ball early and Ivory is not playing. 281 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: But he's only played one game. Lick Jackson's been fine, 282 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: He's been Tomorrow has been fine. There you know, Dante 283 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: Fowler Ramsey. They they're fine. It's portals. It's the it's portals, 284 00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: Robinson hearns that's what's killed. Defense was not the big 285 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: problem in the Ravens game. Who is this that Bortles 286 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: in year? What is the three is regressing at this 287 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: level again? And what about the head coach who's got 288 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: a two thirty five winning percentage in the league that 289 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: there's got to be changes coming if this is what 290 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: the season is going to be coming. Well, the defense 291 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: hasn't been great either, and that's Gus Bradley's job. But 292 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: I don't know that I can blame coaches for a 293 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: mechanical issue. That's something that usually gets fixed in and 294 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: off season, not during the season. One last note on 295 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: this game the Colts. Obviously this game is being played 296 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: in London. They are the first team ever in the 297 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: International Series to not have a bye the next week. 298 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: That seems like kind of a tough turnaround. I think 299 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: they chose it. They did. I think they they didn't 300 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: want to buy and so they requested not to have it. 301 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: They wanted one later in the season. Uh, let's move on, 302 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: gentlemen and talk about UH some more. A f C 303 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: South action the Tennessee Titoons, a former team of a 304 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 1: t L nominee, travel to Houston to face the Texans, 305 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: and Greg as you said, Um J. J. Watt is 306 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: not going to be around in this game. He's not 307 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: gonna be around perhaps for the entire uh duration of 308 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 1: this season after his back injury returned and the team 309 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 1: obviously he's gonna probably be really safe considering how scary 310 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: back injuries can be. The Houston Texans, what are they 311 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 1: gonna do now without their man? Well there they have 312 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: a high a lower ceiling and they are gonna rely 313 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: on their defense to be a top ten defense without J. J. Watt. 314 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 1: Is that possible? I think it is. Uh they have 315 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 1: been so far this season. They really haven't had J. J. Watt. 316 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: You know, they didn't play well against the Patriots overall. 317 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: But you have Jedevian Clowney, you have John Simon plaining all, 318 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: you have merciless, you have a good secondary. But I 319 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: think with Brock Oswiler and the offense that they had 320 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: the last ranked offense in the NFL by the way, 321 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: according to Football Outsiders Metrics three touchdown drives so far 322 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: this season, they needed that defense to be dominant to 323 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: have a chance to be a real contender, and I 324 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 1: think without what they don't have that chance. I agree. 325 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: I don't think they're in the Patriots League or the 326 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: Broncos League, but they can still be the class of 327 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: the a f C South. That's this defense is still 328 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 1: easily the best defense in the division. Yeah, I mean, 329 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: the biggest thing that happened for the Texans was, oh, 330 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: suddenly we're gonna get put into an a f C 331 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 1: South according to the offseason hype, where everyone's competitive. You've 332 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: got four young quarterbacks devastating each other week after week. 333 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: But it's not panned out. The Titans and the Jaguars 334 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: are still bottom feeding this point for the most part, 335 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: and the Texans are dealing with the Cults team that's 336 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 1: very beatable. I mean, the Texans can do we did 337 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 1: last year, go nine and seven and win the division. 338 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,679 Speaker 1: That and that. That's true, and that's all on paper, 339 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: and I agree with it. And yet the Titans, you know, 340 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: they're one couple of lucky bounces away here from tying 341 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 1: the Texans up at two and two if they can 342 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 1: win this game. The Titans are among the most disappointing 343 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: teams in the league. So far, though, I mean Mariota 344 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: is another one of those big quarterback stories. I never 345 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: would have expected that. So far, I would say Mariota 346 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: and Borders are two of the worst four quarterbacks in 347 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: the league only through three games, but I would say 348 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: that those two Gather and Keenum are probably the good. 349 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: The Titans offense get figured out in two quarters and 350 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 1: everyone's got the book on him at this point. On 351 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: the on the other side, I wanna say brock Oswiler 352 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: needs have a bounce back game because that wasn't all 353 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 1: his fault what happened in New England. That was kind 354 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: of a complete team breakdown, and and the fact that 355 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: they were not competitive, but their offense was just depressingly bad. 356 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 1: They couldn't even like sniff the red zone. So if 357 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 1: I want to see a guy again, they paid him 358 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 1: a lot of money, uh, not to be a game manager, 359 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 1: but a guy that made that offense explosive. Their offense 360 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: is gonna have to be much better now because J. J. 361 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: Watt can't carry the team like he's done in the past. 362 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,439 Speaker 1: What are you seen on tape? Greg? They need some 363 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,199 Speaker 1: more underneath throws that that's one thing they don't have 364 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: any intermediate game, everything's just throw a deep. You know, 365 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: Lamar Miller, they could use a little more out of him. 366 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 1: I mean it's probably the offensive line, but the offensive 367 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: linea the running game is not really much better with 368 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: Lamar Miller. I mean, he's getting the ball a lot, 369 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: but they're not a good running They're not opening holes 370 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:33,160 Speaker 1: for Lamar Miller. The offensive line hasn't played well. Let's 371 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,959 Speaker 1: move on, gentlemen, and talk about the Cleveland Browns and 372 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 1: the Washington Redskins. Redskins got that much needed win at 373 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: the meadow Lands in Week three to get get in 374 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: the win column. The Browns, of course, have yet to 375 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 1: win a game. They will again, uh start Cody Kessler 376 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: at quarterback and a Redskins team that you would think 377 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: is in good position to move to five under. But 378 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: Mark Sesler, not only do you think that the Redskins 379 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: are going to struggle, you think the Browns again and 380 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 1: the wind calmed, don't you. It's my lock of the 381 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: week of the week up. I'm going out out there 382 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: because I already put it out on Twitter. I'm getting 383 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: killed by from the Nation's Capital. I don't care. I 384 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 1: really think that there's a chance for this I see 385 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: one thing that could completely dissolve my lock of the week. 386 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: Not a chance, Mark, you said it's a lock, Well, 387 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,760 Speaker 1: I mean happening. A lock coming from me is one 388 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: and one. So it's a coin flip at this point 389 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: going into the season. Yeah. So, I I think though 390 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: watching the Redskins, there's a lot of things they don't 391 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,440 Speaker 1: do well. But you look at Cleveland, there's a chance 392 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: Joe Hayd and Johana is not healthy again and we 393 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,680 Speaker 1: don't know what is availability will be, how much he'll play. 394 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 1: You look at de Sean Jackson and Jamison Crowder and 395 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 1: what they can do in that offense, that passing game, 396 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: they could carve Cleveland's secondary right up, and that could be, 397 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 1: you know, the game to get out of control real quick. 398 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,640 Speaker 1: On the flip side, though, watching what New York did 399 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: to the Redskins, I think that you know in the 400 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: way the way that Cleveland that you've got Cody Kessler, 401 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 1: who is a very limited skill set, but he completed passes, 402 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: some mid midrange passes last week. You can get real 403 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: estate on this Redskins defense. You can also run on them. 404 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,119 Speaker 1: So I I do see a game where Cleveland's gonna 405 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: have a chance to stick around and we'll see what happens. 406 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 1: Turnovers could decide. The Browns had four and thirty yards 407 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: of total offense in Week three, pent points on the board. 408 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: Terrell Prior and who we talked about earlier this week, 409 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: is a guy that Hugh Jackson obviously is doing a 410 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 1: very nice job of using him in a lot of 411 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: different ways, keeping that offense unpredictable. So you're I'm thinking, 412 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 1: Mark for you to lock this up. You like that 413 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: they're playing hard, You've talked about that, and you think 414 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 1: that their offense can do things against the middle in 415 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 1: Washington D I think you're gonna tell you the game, 416 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: you're gonna need to coax Kirk Cousins into some Kirk 417 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: Cousin E type mistakes. I'm not listen. I understand when 418 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: I say this. I'm not saying that logically Cleveland is 419 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,480 Speaker 1: going to go in and take down the Redskins. I'm 420 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: just swinging for the fences. I know you were really 421 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: impressed with the Browns effort last week. I saw a 422 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 1: lot of mis tackles. Well they have that. I mean, 423 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:00,200 Speaker 1: there are they got players that weren't in the legue 424 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: last year that you know that didn't happen, But I 425 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: don't know if the Browns can hang with the Redskins firepower. 426 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 1: The Redskins are one of only two teams to have 427 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: three seventy five yards in every game so far. And 428 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: when you watch k Y, especially the first two, they're 429 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: moving the offense. And when you watch Kirk Cousins play, 430 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: he's protected. He's got time to sit back and pick 431 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: defenses apart, and Cleveland does not. They don't have Karl Nassa, 432 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 1: they don't have a volunteer, they don't have a pass rust. 433 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: The defense is a concern, but this is a vulnerable 434 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 1: Redskins team that was lucky to win against the Giants. 435 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: It really took turnovers in that game. They've they've been 436 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,719 Speaker 1: bad in the red zone. Their offensive line is is 437 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: shaken up enough that they might play Trent Williams, who's 438 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: an All Pro at left guard. They're missing at least 439 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: two of their starters in their secondary, with Brisha Brelan 440 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: expected to miss this game D'Angelo Hill halls out for 441 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: the year. It's a it's a banged up Redskins team too. 442 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: And I watched this Browns team and you know all 443 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: this Mark Sessler optimism. I think there's a reason for it. 444 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: That was the most fun Browns game I've watched it, 445 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: and Cody Kesler deserves some credit. He played well and 446 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: if the Patriots pulled off that performance with a rookie quarterback, 447 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: people would be, you know, having a parade for the 448 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,679 Speaker 1: coaching job. Hugh Jackson did an incredible coaching job, playing 449 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 1: to you know, his limitations Kessler, and he didn't make 450 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: mistakes and there's a couple of times where I thought 451 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 1: he made some smart decisions. Not a big army. The 452 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 1: one issue is you're not going to be able to 453 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 1: surprise them with the two quarterback situation this week. Now 454 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: it's out there and you know, get the bottle. Duke 455 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: Johnson some more. He did it when he went to 456 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 1: his home in Miami and look at what he performed, 457 00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,640 Speaker 1: got some interesting weapons. I think Terrell Pryor is a guy. 458 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: Now you have to start counting on him as a 459 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: nucleus player. He said he's one of the best athletes. 460 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: He believes he's the best athlete on the field each week, 461 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: and then watching him last week's like he I believed this. 462 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: I know we want to move on, but this is 463 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 1: a guy we mocked for how much we used to 464 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: write about. He was kind of a punch line. Even 465 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:53,679 Speaker 1: as recently as three weeks ago he said all he 466 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 1: could do was go deep. This guy is one of 467 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: the most exciting players in the league right now. Give 468 00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: Hugh Jackson the credit. He had him in Cincinnati and 469 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: at him with him to Cleveland. Moving on, are you 470 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 1: in debt? What is this? Is your lack of green 471 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 1: making you see red?

But you have to 495 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 1: wonder what kind of Russell Wilson we're gonna see here, 496 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,760 Speaker 1: And you also have to wonder how he will fare. 497 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 1: And I'm taking nothing away from Russell Wilson, who's a 498 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: tremendous quarterback, but a guy on bad legs against the 499 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: Jets defensive line playing at home with a bad taste 500 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: in their mouth after a terrible loss in Week three, 501 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,359 Speaker 1: and a Jets team that needs a game and you 502 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 1: hear to my voice. Just like Mark's optimistic about his 503 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: Star Cress Star Cross franchise, I too am optimistic. How 504 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: optimistic I'm making the New York Jets my lock of 505 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:05,680 Speaker 1: the week terrible news for Cleveland and New York. And Uh, 506 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 1: some people was like, oh, Dan, you made Cincinnati your 507 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 1: Lock of the week, and then I rethought it after 508 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: the show, So that's kind of cheating. Uh, Cincinnati's much 509 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 1: better team than Miami. Let's let's be heavy favorite, Let's 510 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: lock it up. Let's lock it up petition to change 511 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 1: the name of this lock it Up segment to wish 512 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: cast of the week might as well have it. Since 513 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: we don't know it's great happen, you might as well 514 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:27,919 Speaker 1: have it. So that's fair West. I will throw it 515 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:29,719 Speaker 1: out to what I the way I explained it in 516 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 1: my mindset, and also under the impression that I don't 517 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 1: think the Jets are bad. That's by being one in 518 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 1: two and looking really bad last week. That's not a 519 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: crazy thought that they could win at home. I'm not 520 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: a bad day that. I don't think there's a coincidence 521 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 1: that the locks of the week so far have been 522 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: the Browns and the Jets. Well, we're fans. Yeah, here's 523 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,400 Speaker 1: what it is. Also, it's the nature of lock though. 524 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 1: That's fair, but west It's also the last couple of days. 525 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: If this doesn't happen, if the Jets and Browns go 526 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: down in two giant house fires, you're not gonna get 527 00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: any more Browns and Jets locks of the week. This 528 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: is this is It's the end of September. Hope begins 529 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 1: to This is such a tough game to predict, though 530 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 1: to me, the Jets from the first three weeks were 531 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 1: so impressive. I mean, the first two weeks, I'm almost 532 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 1: willing to throw away that fits Apocalypse game is just 533 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: a strange, strange game. But this is the ultimate test 534 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: for any offense. Because I love the way the Seax 535 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 1: defense is playing. I think it's gonna be an ugly 536 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: low scoring game. This is the game more than any 537 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: other that I just throw my hands up. And that's 538 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: why I'm making it my unlock of the week. That 539 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 1: is the most greg thing ever. Hey, can I just say, 540 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 1: since you brought up throw out the game, you know 541 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: a little team up the Old Coastline in the United 542 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: States that a couple of years ago had a game 543 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: that you just threw out. It happened to happen in 544 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 1: Kansas City on the road those New England Patriots and 545 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: what happened to the Pats team, and I went all 546 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 1: the way after their apocalypse scenario in Kansas City. Get 547 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: excited Jets, so onto Florham Park. The Jets are saying, 548 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: I like that this is a good matchup because I 549 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: think what Seattle is doing st right now is opening 550 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,119 Speaker 1: holes for Christian Michael, letting him run through it. And 551 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: the Jets defense, the run defense is a strength there, 552 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 1: So I think that's that probably advantage Jets on that one. 553 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 1: I would think considering the Seahawks offensive line troubles and 554 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,400 Speaker 1: I never want to talk about the Ryan Fitzpatrick sixth 555 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: interception game again, but I will say this one other aspect. 556 00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: Marcus Peters in a good Kansas City defense at home. 557 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 1: Eric Decker hurt his shoulder again in that game. Brandon 558 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: Marshall wasn't close. They were kind of behind the eight 559 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: ball without a lot of people knowing might not play 560 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 1: this week. That's a big big marsh I don't know. 561 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: I get a nice soft matchup against Seattle's you know, 562 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: kind of wayward secondary every time you look up. So 563 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 1: he had always a new defensive star. Frank Clark is 564 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: playing lights out. You just made that Frank Clark second 565 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 1: round draft picked from last year. Deshun Shed is turning 566 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:56,640 Speaker 1: into a top cornerback. This defense is once again better 567 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: this year than he did. You know, and we talk 568 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: about you, your Gus Bradley. You f that system. You 569 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,439 Speaker 1: should know how that system operates. You go to another 570 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: team and players are not developing across on both sides 571 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 1: of the ball. In Seattle, it's one gym, one unearthed 572 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 1: guy after the next. Am I on an island by 573 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 1: the way with the Jets here, it's okay. I think 574 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: it's a coin flip game. No, I don't know. It's 575 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 1: so big that it's in New York. It's my unlock 576 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: of the week. Oh now it makes sense moving on, 577 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 1: uh team that had its back against the wall in 578 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: Week three where the Buffalo Bills they got the big 579 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 1: win at home against the Arizona Cardinals, and now they 580 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: got an even bigger task because now they got to 581 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: go up to New England to face the New England 582 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: Patriots who are three and oh, I don't know if 583 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: anyone has been talking about this with their um assortment 584 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: of quarterbacks not named Tom Brady. All indications greg that 585 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo is starting. It's up in the air. It's Patriots, 586 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: I would guess that, but they were waiting to see 587 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: how he responded after increasing his work at practice Wednesday. 588 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: There's some mixed reports on how that went. And Rex 589 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: Ryan is having his fun with this week. But then 590 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: you just have to look at history and this doesn't matter. 591 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: But I just want to point out that the Patriots 592 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 1: have won three of the last twenty five games against 593 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: the Bills by an average score of thirty one sixteen. 594 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 1: So no team owns the Bills like the Pats. And 595 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: now they get him at home and here comes Rex 596 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: Ryan with his weirdo Bill Belichick obsession. Why does this 597 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: happen every time? It's so weird? Can I I will 598 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: throw as a certified expert. I think he might realize 599 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: he might not have too many of these left. It 600 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 1: could be the last time he ever gets to be 601 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: a contemporary with Belichick talking about us. Well, they're coaching 602 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: together at the same time. Okay, no matter who, no 603 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 1: matter who plays quarterback for the Patriots, this is a 604 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: Lagarry Blunt game. The Patriots are the only team in 605 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: the NFL with more than one yard rusher this season. 606 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: Garret Blunt's leading the NFL and rushing wild and I 607 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: think he's gonna get twenty carries again in this game. 608 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: Has been a great draft pick for them, Yes, a 609 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: great uh. Nate Solder return healthy, looking good. The last 610 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: couple of weeks has been under the radar. They're getting 611 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: big time contributions from their off season pickups like Chris 612 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 1: Long and Chris Hogan, Hogan and Martellis Bennett. You hopefully 613 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: get Gronk back looking like Gronk this week. There's a 614 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: lot of things that are trending pretty well for the page. 615 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,719 Speaker 1: Are you worried? You know, Greg, as a Patriots fan, 616 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: does this game concern you more or less than any 617 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 1: other game the Patriots have? Well, I don't say that 618 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 1: that sounded very pat but I would say this that 619 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: in theory, like the Bills, Rex Ryan are all fired up. 620 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: This is kind of the last stand here before you 621 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: know the whole the whole thing burns down in Buffalo. 622 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 1: Potentially you're concerned, no, because it's relatively no. Because Sammy 623 00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: Watkins is looking unlikely to play. This has a chance 624 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: to be really good, and this happened so far. This 625 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 1: is an offense that you should be able to come here. 626 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,719 Speaker 1: It's limited. Here's the case for the Bills hanging in 627 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: this game. West. I know you said it was more 628 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: a breakdown of the Cardinals, but I'm gonna give Bills 629 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 1: credit for taking care of business in week three. So 630 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 1: they're coming off a game where they kicked some masks. 631 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: They got a little bit of a swagger off that 632 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 1: I think, and the Rex Ryan defense were just playing 633 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: well with a lot of no names. Uh maybe Jemmy 634 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo at less or even Jake Brisket at less 635 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: at less than they struggle against the Rex defense, I 636 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: will say, I mean, yeah, that's true. Tell me if 637 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: anyone saw something different. But the Bills and I get 638 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 1: the Cardinals, you know, traveling in these coasts not a 639 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: prime situation for them. They got beaten up on both 640 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: Buffalo beat them up on both sides of the ball. 641 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: I don't think a lot of people saw that coming. 642 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: So can that translate? That's the question. If if Jacoby 643 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: Brissette is starting and it's it's not, that's a huge difference. 644 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: I don't want I don't buy the notions. Well, you know, 645 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: either one you gotta be ready for. There's a big difference. 646 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 1: Tell the Texans that a huge different. He's a very 647 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 1: limited player. He was a lot more limited for that game. 648 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 1: I guess you could say that Cody Kessler was for 649 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: the Browns for instance. You gotta win with defense, and 650 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: in the Texans played into their hands. Garoppolos Week two 651 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 1: game is one of the best games I've seen by 652 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: a quarterback this year. Moving on, gentlemen, let's move over 653 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: to the NFC where the Carolina Panthers are traveling to 654 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,479 Speaker 1: Atlanta and Uh, some things that should surprise you. Again, 655 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,479 Speaker 1: we know nothing a month after the season begins. Uh, 656 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: you would never predict this. One team is two and one, 657 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: one teams one and two. It's the Falcons that have 658 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,719 Speaker 1: the winning record. The team with the number one offense 659 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: in the league in this game is also the Falcons. Uh, 660 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: so you put those things together. The Carolina Panthers, if 661 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: they have any designs on, um, you know, having a 662 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:42,040 Speaker 1: home game in the playoffs, if they have any designs 663 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: on having a buy uh, they have to start winning 664 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: football games. And the Falcons are not going to be 665 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 1: such a big pushover Mark No. I think we I 666 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: think this is the best offense, not yet. I get 667 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: it's the number one offense in the NFL that in 668 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: early season that can go, that can be read wrong 669 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: a lot of ways, right, But this is the best 670 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: offense that that Carolina has faced this season, I think. 671 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: And it's it's it's on that turf in Atlanta, and 672 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 1: you know, I think the Panthers. Here's the problem for Atlanta. 673 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 1: The Panthers have to be very irritated after what happened 674 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: last week. This is a team with a lot of pride, 675 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 1: and you have Kelvin Benjamin that was held catchless and 676 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: also prevented a touchdown with a big penalty last week 677 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: as well. So I think the Panthers gonna try to 678 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,440 Speaker 1: get Kelvin Benjaman back involved in this game. There's not 679 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 1: a lot of pass rush coming from Atlanta. Cam Newton 680 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: should be mostly able to roam and and and and 681 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: pass the ball untouched. I think this matter. This could 682 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 1: be a big shootout, is what what it could be. Well, 683 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: you we've seen the Panthers losses were against the Vikings 684 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: and Broncos, who may have the two most athletic pressuring 685 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 1: front seven's in the NFL. And now you go against 686 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: the Falcons, who have the worst pass rush in the 687 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 1: NFL perennially. But this is a Panther's offense that Mrs 688 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 1: Jonathan Stewart, when it's not out there that is waiting 689 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: for Devin Funch just to matter at all. Uh, you know, 690 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: it's a it. I wouldn't say it's a limited off 691 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 1: fence because it's got Cam Newton and it's probably the 692 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: toughest run game in the league to prepare for. But 693 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: if you're just but if you just have to take 694 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: away Benjamin and Newton. I like Whittaker more. I like 695 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: Fuzzy Whittaker more than you do. I guess I thought 696 00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 1: he's been a he's a change of pace guy. Though 697 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 1: you don't want him running. If he stepped in and 698 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: done a good job, fine, they started Cameron artist pain 699 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: last week. He got more of the artist painter, artist painter. 700 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: He's fine. This isn't a gimme game, though. This is 701 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 1: a division game. The Falcons. You know, in case we 702 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,320 Speaker 1: forget forget about getting over last week, how about getting 703 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: over last season? They ended the Panther season in this 704 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,319 Speaker 1: exact game, in this exact same stage, but they didn't 705 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: end their season well and their undefeated season and rather 706 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,719 Speaker 1: missing a keyword there, it would have been weird if 707 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: their season just ended there in weekif would have been 708 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 1: fourteen one been nice, guys, We're going to have the 709 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: playoffs without you. That's next year. Yeah, that's college. You're 710 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: exactly right. We've gotten we've all gotten so used to 711 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,360 Speaker 1: how good Luke Keikle is that it's almost you just expected. 712 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: But how hottie at this point he he could be 713 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: in the mix for Defensive Player of the Year for 714 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: through three weeks. Well, it's wide open. Unbelievable through three weeks, 715 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: is right? Why nobody's it's anybody's awarded about von Miller? Please? 716 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 1: Von Miller would have to be the favorite so far. 717 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 1: What about Sid? You have some Sandwiches involved with a 718 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 1: pass rusher in Detroit, don't you? I do. And he's 719 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 1: very much on the bench with an injury right now. Yeah, 720 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 1: he hasn't played, but like, what a year because J. J. 721 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,319 Speaker 1: Watts also hurt, so it would have been it would 722 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: have been the year. Listen, he can get back on 723 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 1: the field and get hot. Don't give up yet. But 724 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: I also it's done saving up some money. It was 725 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 1: a good sandwich bet at the time. It's crumbled, very 726 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: bad position. I'm gonna say, like him, he's Ziggianta. We're 727 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: talking about expected to miss another game. You know, no 728 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: sacks through four weeks of the season. You're you're in 729 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: trouble here. You're hurting, you definitely hurtlest Like he's Kalil 730 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: mac where. Yeah, what's going on with Khalil Oh? It's 731 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: the whole defense. Come on, But isn't he a superstar? Well, well, 732 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: let's talk about him right now. Because the Oakland Raiders 733 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,839 Speaker 1: at two and one, yes one of the remaining UH 734 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: team of around the NFL finalists, they now travel to Baltimore. 735 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,000 Speaker 1: I love this. This is what I want. I need 736 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: a little more internal support, of course. I have my girl, 737 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 1: little deb up North supporting the Raiders as the team 738 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: of a t L. She reps Oakland Oaktown. That's how 739 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 1: they say it up there. They never said that, Okay, uh, 740 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 1: But now they go on the road to play Baltimore 741 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,319 Speaker 1: three and oh. Not a dominant Ravens team obviously, but 742 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 1: I love it. I like the idea of the Raiders 743 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 1: cementing themselves as a real team to take seriously in 744 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: the team of a t L by knocking off an 745 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 1: undefeated team in their house. Am I crazy marked to 746 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 1: think that the Raiders can move on to three and 747 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:50,320 Speaker 1: one here? Not at all? Why would that be crazy? 748 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:52,800 Speaker 1: Teams beat teams all the time on Sunday's end of 749 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: my analysis, anybody else I've I've enjoyed watching this Raiders 750 00:36:58,120 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 1: team when I when I went back and watch that 751 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 1: Titan game, I started thinking, you know, the Raiders aren't 752 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,839 Speaker 1: such a crazy idea. I mean, if we could get 753 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: little Debbie to drop some hot bars, you know, from 754 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,399 Speaker 1: the Raiders, I'm saying I'm with it. I like this. 755 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 1: I would like this. Uh backfield, I like DeAndre Washington. 756 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,759 Speaker 1: I have a nice three head, Alon Richard. I mean, 757 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 1: come on, Derek Carr has looked you talk about Blake 758 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 1: Bortles regressing. Derek carrs starting to do all these things 759 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: where all these heady comparisons they're throwing at young quarterbacks, 760 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 1: some of them are starting to make sense With Derek Carr, 761 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 1: especially with the footwork which you pointed out on Sunday night. 762 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 1: Watch that game. The exact play that you pointed out 763 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: is a fascinating play by Derek Carr. Yeah, so elusive. 764 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 1: And then you've got Ravens defense that has been pretty 765 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 1: good at pressuring quarterbacks at least manure manufacturing pressure. And 766 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 1: Timmy Joern again is having a breakout season on their 767 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 1: defensive line. Yeah, he he looks good. And Connor or 768 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 1: his brothers Zach or not brothers actually Greg. I still 769 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: think he's an upgrade on Darryl Smith at that spot. 770 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 1: Here's an upgrade on the counter or nobody's enough great 771 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 1: on I mean that is definitely the second least athletic 772 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 1: guy in the family. Connor's taken back blog post at 773 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 1: four am on the West Coast. No, I'm gonna go 774 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 1: no hard no. What you mentioned Car. The one thing 775 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: with him you kind of know what you're getting each 776 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 1: week now. I mean, he's steady. He's not to me, 777 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 1: the most exciting guy to watch, but he's very consistent. 778 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:23,400 Speaker 1: He's what you want out of a course. Well, and 779 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: Michael Crowdtree is balling out too. I mean it's not 780 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: it's not the Michael Crowdtree getting back into health. We 781 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: saw it some last year. But he looked good to 782 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 1: me last week This is what you all you need 783 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,880 Speaker 1: to know. You don't have to go crazy about Derek 784 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,720 Speaker 1: Carrs being one of the best young quarterbacks in the league. 785 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 1: But Oakland has the number two offense in the league 786 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 1: right now, thirty six yards a game. Now they have 787 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 1: the number thirty two defense. That's the biggest problem. They 788 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 1: need to get better on that side. And that's when 789 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 1: our boy Khalil mack who was getting all the accolades 790 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,280 Speaker 1: last year as a guy that not only was another 791 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 1: swing and hit for Regie mackenzie, had become an actual superstar. 792 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 1: Maybe when some games like von Miller does. You have 793 00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,360 Speaker 1: to remember half of his sex came in one game 794 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 1: last year. I mean, it's a breakout season and and 795 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 1: everybody acted like he was one of the best defensive 796 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:07,360 Speaker 1: players in the NFL. He gets pressures, he's great in 797 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: the run game, but he's only getting sacks in about 798 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:14,839 Speaker 1: what one third or one fourth of his games. Little 799 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: misleading the numbers last year's I think they were a 800 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,799 Speaker 1: little misleading. He had he was zero pass rushed as 801 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:22,319 Speaker 1: a rookie, but so it wasn't It wasn't. But he's 802 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 1: a great player. I'm not saying he's not. He's a 803 00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,319 Speaker 1: guy that gets pressure. It's not a crazy thing for 804 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 1: a guy like him to go three games without a sack. 805 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,359 Speaker 1: Now if it continued all season, yeah, that's that's more 806 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,360 Speaker 1: of a concerns Steve Smith. By the way, I know 807 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,879 Speaker 1: he's still not running deep routes, but it looks way 808 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 1: better than we had any right to expect at that 809 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 1: age coming off of that injury. He looks good. He 810 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,800 Speaker 1: looks good. They're getting it's now a foreheaded receiver group shot. 811 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:50,439 Speaker 1: Pyraman's intriguing. Pyraman's in it's there. They're a little more 812 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: juicy to watch. The ball comes out so clean. And 813 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 1: Flacco's hands when you're watching him versus Bortles portals. Last 814 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 1: week Flacco was putting on a clinic speaking guys that 815 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: have no business being productive. Dennis pit about writing stories 816 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 1: he thought for no reason like the right and then 817 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 1: like the quarterbacks in this game, you mentioned that Flacco, 818 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: uh and cart they're really good. I think at knowing 819 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: the moment, when to go for certain places, when not 820 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: to game management. Those are the things that Bordles and Mariota, 821 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:19,359 Speaker 1: for instance, have been struggling this year, Like mental errors 822 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 1: like these guys know how to manage. Who do you 823 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,319 Speaker 1: got in this game? Guys, I think the Ravens go 824 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 1: to four no. I think this Ravens team is good 825 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 1: taking the Ravens. I trust their coaches and their veterans. 826 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: I think this Raiders team as a little bit of 827 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:33,360 Speaker 1: something spicy going on. If they win this I would 828 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 1: consider them. Because no one seems to want to consider 829 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:38,799 Speaker 1: the Vikings, I would consider you, guys taking the Raiders team. 830 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 1: Don't take that into a different place. Consider everyone has 831 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,240 Speaker 1: an open mind about the Vikings. I think the Raiders 832 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 1: of the Raiders are an intriguing team. They're gonna win 833 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 1: this week. I think they're gonna win two. But if 834 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:57,000 Speaker 1: the Ravens with the four no our own we everyone 835 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 1: counted them out and they're gonna be undefeated at the 836 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 1: quarter pole. They pulled this one out. Interesting. Moving on, 837 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 1: are you sick of sitting around while your friends get 838 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,800 Speaker 1: rich quick? Here's a solution. Mr Flame's economics class in 839 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 1: the Hague the Netherlands. The Under the tutelage of the 840 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 1: all knowing Mr Flame, you too could become knowledgeable on 841 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 1: the production consumption they have transfer of wealth. Enroll in 842 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: Flame class dot com today, it's just Netherlands. You don't 843 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 1: need the the Hague Comma Netherlands. That's not how I 844 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 1: read it. Okay on Wikipedia, all right, there's another thun 845 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: in there. You don't need the definite article. Did you 846 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 1: take any economics classes in college? Did I know? You 847 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 1: could say? I certainly did you did? Is that why 848 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:43,280 Speaker 1: we're all renters in this room? Oh? I'm I didn't 849 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 1: take any economics classes. And you can tell C plus 850 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,800 Speaker 1: that crossed over to a low low B with a 851 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 1: of moderately successful final exam. If I recall, if we 852 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:54,800 Speaker 1: had taken economics classes in school, we'd have had a 853 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 1: sponsor long before now. I had an uncle, my old 854 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: uncle Bill. He wants to sponsor us. He would always 855 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,320 Speaker 1: we have a sponsor, We're good. He would always tell me, 856 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 1: whenever you would see me at like a church function 857 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:09,880 Speaker 1: or at a family party, I gotta get involved in economics. 858 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,879 Speaker 1: That's the stuff to study. Plastics, that's what you want 859 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,800 Speaker 1: to study. Get involved in the money side. I just 860 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: didn't listen to him. Good parental advice, but except it's 861 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 1: boring exactly, um moving what he went to the toy department. Yeah, 862 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 1: I mean economics thirty one in a statement in math 863 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 1: test that didn't really don't don't don't comprehension? Thank you, 864 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 1: don't sell Dan's awful math skills short, please Greg? Moving on, 865 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 1: You guys are very uppity about grades today. By the way, 866 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,239 Speaker 1: we drew a line in the sands. Why are you 867 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 1: we're not going to accept oh B minus? What a 868 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:51,759 Speaker 1: great job. Pat on the back. Let's go out to 869 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 1: Carvel ice cream. I don't think so. Why are you 870 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: brain chaming us? No, I'm just saying, you guys are 871 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,799 Speaker 1: a little you know, santi intellectual sounds like something Donald 872 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: trum Up would do, a little square resorting to brain shaming. 873 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:09,800 Speaker 1: Sorry that we achieved as youths, did you goble? Alright? 874 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 1: Moving on? The Detroit Lions in Chicago Bears squaring off 875 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 1: at Soldier field lines and won six straight games against 876 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: the Bears. Uh, and they're trying to make it seven. 877 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,879 Speaker 1: The Bears have not started a season owned four since 878 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:27,879 Speaker 1: two thousand. But it's coming, Chris Wesleys, This Bears team 879 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 1: doesn't look like a team that's about to win anytime soon. No, 880 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 1: it doesn't. In the Lions, on the other hand, or 881 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:38,359 Speaker 1: the other team besides the Redskins that is, had yards 882 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,960 Speaker 1: in every game so far. This game features the battle 883 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: of no rushing attacks. It's also the battle of two 884 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:48,360 Speaker 1: rookie runners thrust into the starting lineup. Jordan Howard for 885 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 1: the Bears, who looks pretty intriguing, a big guy who 886 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 1: can catch the ball, run between the tackles, and Dwayne 887 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 1: Washington for the Lions, who wasn't quite as impressive, and 888 00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: I'm not sure the Lions can run the ball without him. 889 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:03,560 Speaker 1: You're up doing because theoretic is purely a receiver. I 890 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 1: think they want more out of their young offensive lineman. 891 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: They drafted Taylor Decker, who's their left tackle. They drafted 892 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 1: Lake and Tomlinson in the first round. Neither one of 893 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:16,360 Speaker 1: those guys is playing particularly well right now. Matthew Stafford 894 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:20,600 Speaker 1: is overcoming it. He's he's he's I don't know, like 895 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: I'm worried about writing the Matthew Stafford has taken the 896 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,719 Speaker 1: leap column because Finn as impressive as any quarterback in 897 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:29,360 Speaker 1: the NFL. Because it feels like once I once you 898 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,239 Speaker 1: write it, it's all gonna fall apart. But it's now 899 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 1: going back twelve games or so. Here's the number since 900 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:38,919 Speaker 1: Week eight of last season when coonter by the way 901 00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 1: just between us, I like this, Cooter, good for you. 902 00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 1: Matt Stafford TV six picks since Week eight and in 903 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 1: his last nine games twenty four touchdowns, three interceptions, now 904 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:55,879 Speaker 1: touchdowns and I and T s doesn't tell the whole story, 905 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 1: but he seems to be back to the guy that 906 00:44:58,160 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 1: everyone was raving about. Is the guy that would be 907 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 1: a guy undeniably for a decade plus. All right, then 908 00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 1: let me ask you a question. I I totally think 909 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 1: the Lions on offense, they're they're interesting to watch. What 910 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 1: is your hope? What is anyone's hope level with this team? 911 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,799 Speaker 1: Why is this any different in the end this Lion 912 00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:16,799 Speaker 1: season than any other? Just general question. It just feels like, well, 913 00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 1: I just look at the Lions with a much different 914 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 1: team than it was three years ago. But if you 915 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,320 Speaker 1: mean that they're destined to not be a real contender, 916 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 1: I would agree with you. Yes, that's my concern. But 917 00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:26,839 Speaker 1: I don't have a defense. They with a playoff spot. 918 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 1: I don't think they're like a Lion team walking. I 919 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,320 Speaker 1: think they could flirt. I don't think they have a defense. 920 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 1: They need to get onto back levies out They're thin. 921 00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 1: They're thin, but Stafford's makes them watchable. Who's getting as 922 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 1: signed this game on Sunday, That's my question. This is 923 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 1: a Patrick game, it's his his Detroit, and I feel 924 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 1: for Patrick. Loves the Lions cheers to pet Like I 925 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,960 Speaker 1: heard something Matthew Stafford said this week. What I want. 926 00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: I would like to see it one of these. It's 927 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,319 Speaker 1: just it's two cities that love their football and they're 928 00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 1: just getting handed. Just this. I think the lines are 929 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:04,960 Speaker 1: at least interesting the Bear team. That's the problem is 930 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 1: any game with the Bears in it, Bears fans are 931 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: falling out of love with that team. They're all on 932 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 1: the Cubs now. I mean Eric Eric Ebron is taking 933 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 1: another step. He looks like a real weapon as a receiver. 934 00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 1: Marvin Jones looks like a number one receiver. If they 935 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:19,440 Speaker 1: had golden tape from two years ago, they'd be in 936 00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:21,760 Speaker 1: good shape. But he has eighty eight yards this season. 937 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 1: They're using him different. He doesn't look as explosive, No, 938 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:27,120 Speaker 1: not at all. He's not as good after the catch. 939 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: He's always around the line of scrimmage. He's not down field. 940 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:31,319 Speaker 1: Was there an injury that we missed? Like? What did 941 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 1: I know, seem to be pegging him the ball right 942 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:36,960 Speaker 1: near right near where the line is and as opposed 943 00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 1: to getting him down field, which he did great last year. 944 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 1: Can you not have two of those guys? There's a 945 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:45,800 Speaker 1: trivia question for you guys. What's Joe Lombardi doing right now? Well, Stafford? 946 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:49,759 Speaker 1: And is he the worst offensive? You know what is it? 947 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 1: He's the quarterbacks coach for the Saints. I was gonna 948 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,440 Speaker 1: say John Payton probably took him back. Well, Stafford said 949 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,440 Speaker 1: something interesting this week. I thought we're not doing as 950 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 1: many I just dropped back twelve steps and try to 951 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 1: throw the balls far as I can. And it's just 952 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 1: basically a shot at Joe lombardin Well, I mean, come on, 953 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 1: the guy, he can take a shot or two for 954 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 1: what he did there. Moving on, ladies and gentlemen. Ladies, 955 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,839 Speaker 1: I'm referring to Sydney. Thank you for clearing that up. Well, 956 00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 1: there's only one lady then, so who is the second 957 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:20,839 Speaker 1: lady in this building? There are more than just one woman. 958 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,000 Speaker 1: There's someone else out there. Well, you're also speaking to 959 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:27,359 Speaker 1: the listener. Yes, Indy Sarah, Indie Sarah one of our 960 00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 1: most loyal listeners. Uh, let's move on and talk about 961 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:34,799 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos three and oh great win in Week 962 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 1: three at Cincinnati, Trevor Simeon looked great. And now they 963 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:42,920 Speaker 1: travel to Tampa to face the Bucks and Greg the 964 00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 1: word is out. It's been told to your boy, Jamis Winston. 965 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,239 Speaker 1: We're not gonna be thrown so much because we don't 966 00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:52,399 Speaker 1: think that works well. He's throwing so much in part 967 00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:55,680 Speaker 1: because their defense is lousy and he's probably the best 968 00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 1: player on their team. Gerald McCoy is playing well, but 969 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 1: there Jamis Winston is the best they were on the 970 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 1: Bucks other than Gerald McCoy. Yeah, why not Lavonte David, 971 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 1: Mike Evans, Vonte David at a poor season last year, Relatively, 972 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:12,839 Speaker 1: I would take Jamis Winston over Lavonte David. My point 973 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 1: is that I'll just say I still do enjoy the 974 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:19,440 Speaker 1: Marcus Mariana James Winston holy war between the scientists, even 975 00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:22,720 Speaker 1: if it's sometimes below the radar. Well, look, I always 976 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 1: feel it likes to point out that Mariota is now 977 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:27,239 Speaker 1: one of the worst quarterbacks in the NFL and completely 978 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,359 Speaker 1: glosses over all of the mistakes that Winston has made 979 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: this season. I think I called this one Mark six interceptions, 980 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,239 Speaker 1: Greg right, but he's got eight touchdown these six in 981 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:38,239 Speaker 1: the league and passing by the way very close. Uh, 982 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:41,640 Speaker 1: a lot of garbage time stats there last, they're they 983 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:45,319 Speaker 1: are dead last in I just want to be fair, Well, 984 00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 1: I am, I am fair. Mariota's one of the worst quarterback, 985 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,439 Speaker 1: but Winston is the best player on the Bucks. Give 986 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 1: me a break. There's no there's no Winston's mistakes count. 987 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:57,360 Speaker 1: Of course, the accompany taking a lot of positives no 988 00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:01,080 Speaker 1: longer under the races, and he's carrying their offense. But 989 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 1: he's playing a team that's so much better than the 990 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:05,160 Speaker 1: Bucks in every way that it's not going to be 991 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:07,320 Speaker 1: very easy to do this week, Mark, how would you 992 00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 1: like to be assigned to this game? Watching an afternoon 993 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:13,440 Speaker 1: game at Raymond James Stadium. I will pass on that 994 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:17,040 Speaker 1: whoever has the assignment, I hope they enjoyed them. Someone 995 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:20,640 Speaker 1: pointed out my my friend, uh, Shelyn Patel, who have 996 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:23,320 Speaker 1: reference on the show the Big Bucks fan in Tampa, 997 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,000 Speaker 1: said we should notice on the schedule a lot of 998 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:28,040 Speaker 1: the Bucks home games are late games, so you don't 999 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 1: have to deal with the sun nearly as much. That 1000 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:33,400 Speaker 1: means a lot, it does. It's a huge factor in 1001 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 1: terms of their watchability index. I'm just saying, we're coming 1002 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:40,520 Speaker 1: off a game with Winston four yards, three touchdowns, one interception. 1003 00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:43,279 Speaker 1: He was not the problem. Mike Smith took over that 1004 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 1: defense to improve it from what from love you Smith doing? 1005 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 1: And right now they're dead last in the NFL in 1006 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:52,279 Speaker 1: points a lot. They're struggling. Broncos are closing by the 1007 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:56,160 Speaker 1: way really well this season. Plus thirty two point referential 1008 00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter of games. Uh so that's what 1009 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,080 Speaker 1: you expect from good teams. They turn it on at 1010 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 1: the end. Uh Denver, Listen, they look great. I mean, 1011 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: if they're gonna they're not gonna get that Trevor simme 1012 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:08,839 Speaker 1: in every week. But and maybe their defense isn't quite 1013 00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 1: as good a pocket movement to me and has to 1014 00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:13,879 Speaker 1: buy some extra time. But this race for the number 1015 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:16,319 Speaker 1: one seed with the Patriots is going to be real. 1016 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,279 Speaker 1: When does Gary Kubiak start getting credit as one of 1017 00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:23,000 Speaker 1: the better coaches? And the good question because it's like, oh, 1018 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:25,280 Speaker 1: you're just a placeholder coach that just won the Super 1019 00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 1: Bowl and has the team operating at the same level 1020 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:30,120 Speaker 1: going into this season. Before he got to the Broncos, 1021 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 1: he gave Joe Flacker the best season of his career too. 1022 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:35,319 Speaker 1: He's he's a good offensive mind. I mean, they they 1023 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 1: went into Cincinnati choosing to completely give up on running. 1024 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,120 Speaker 1: Going into the game against the team that had been 1025 00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:46,439 Speaker 1: a terrible run defense Cincinnati, they said, Simeon, let's throw 1026 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:48,720 Speaker 1: it all day long. And you know what, it worked. 1027 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:51,720 Speaker 1: John Elby looks great. I mean the Simeon things working 1028 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:54,359 Speaker 1: out just fine, and you still have a number one 1029 00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,000 Speaker 1: quarterback waiting in the wings. Said this after week one, 1030 00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 1: and I still believe it. I'd rather have Trevor Simmey 1031 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 1: and then broke off at that price tag, absolutely any 1032 00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:07,880 Speaker 1: price tag. Moving on, gentlemen that had Los Angeles Rams 1033 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:11,400 Speaker 1: the first place, Los Angeles Rams, who would have predicted 1034 00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:14,920 Speaker 1: that after that first Monday night game travel to Arizona 1035 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:19,279 Speaker 1: to face the Cardinals. Cardinals got uh really whooped in 1036 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:22,640 Speaker 1: Orchard Park a thirty three eighteen loss. And it makes 1037 00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:27,080 Speaker 1: me think, Mark that the Rams, despite their back to 1038 00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:30,080 Speaker 1: back wins, are heading into a buzz saw in Glendale. 1039 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,399 Speaker 1: Well it's not the you don't you would have liked 1040 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:34,479 Speaker 1: to see Arizona take care of business in the bills 1041 00:51:34,520 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 1: and maybe try to sneak up on them. Uh, but 1042 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,360 Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen for me. The problem with the 1043 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:41,239 Speaker 1: Rams and I'll give him credit for what they did 1044 00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 1: last week, last two weeks, but you still have the 1045 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:47,919 Speaker 1: centerpiece of your offense, Todd Gurley running at two point 1046 00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 1: nine yards per carry. Good defenses know that there isn't 1047 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,239 Speaker 1: an easier team in the league to game plan for. 1048 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,399 Speaker 1: And what they did well last week, and they're they're 1049 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:58,800 Speaker 1: having keenom throw the ball more than you think. And 1050 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,840 Speaker 1: he actually found Tavon Austin downfield for some of the 1051 00:52:01,920 --> 00:52:04,879 Speaker 1: first times all season through a nice touchdown, also through 1052 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 1: an awful interception, gave up a terrible sack where he 1053 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:09,920 Speaker 1: should have thrown the ball away. Case Keenen is going 1054 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:11,839 Speaker 1: to be Case keen and week to week you need 1055 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:14,560 Speaker 1: Gurley to free up get your yardage, and he is 1056 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,120 Speaker 1: a hostage in that offense. Right now. Nothing's changed. It's 1057 00:52:17,120 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 1: the same story as last week. Did they score like 1058 00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:22,040 Speaker 1: thirty seven points? I if you go watch it, I 1059 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:24,319 Speaker 1: just don't buy into how it happened. It's not gonna 1060 00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 1: be a week to week thing. Again. They played an 1061 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:28,759 Speaker 1: offense that we're talking about the worst. The defense in 1062 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:32,360 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay that has got a lot of issues. This 1063 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 1: is a big game for the Cardinals. I know the 1064 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:37,719 Speaker 1: Rams played them well in both games last year and 1065 00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 1: eat him in Arizona, right beat them in Arizona. Robert 1066 00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 1: Griffin is playing better, Robert Quinn is playing better this year. 1067 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,920 Speaker 1: This defense for the Rams is really getting after quarterbacks. 1068 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 1: And I don't know if the Cardinals are protecting cars 1069 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,120 Speaker 1: in Palmer all that well. Not last week. They didn't. 1070 00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:56,920 Speaker 1: Damnaschek ambled over um to our pod of desks today 1071 00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:00,719 Speaker 1: and wondered why not more people weren't making a bigger 1072 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 1: deal out of Cardinals early struggles and Carson Palmer, And 1073 00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:06,080 Speaker 1: I said, it feels a little early. But if the 1074 00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:09,319 Speaker 1: Rams go to Arizona this week and and beat up 1075 00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 1: the Cardinals win a game and Palmer looks bad again, 1076 00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 1: I think Arizona fans have every reason to be very 1077 00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 1: scared that the magic ran out there. I mean, yeah, 1078 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,839 Speaker 1: still early, but one of three would be terrible. I've 1079 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,279 Speaker 1: been asked about Palmer so far, and I think it's 1080 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,360 Speaker 1: too early to write him off as like a problem 1081 00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:27,319 Speaker 1: for the Cardinals. I don't think he's been that bad 1082 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 1: other than I don't either, and he still had a 1083 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:32,680 Speaker 1: There was a drive right before halftime in week two 1084 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:36,440 Speaker 1: that I thought the Carson Palmer's back like he his 1085 00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:38,840 Speaker 1: pocket movement was great, his toughness, he's stuck in the 1086 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:42,440 Speaker 1: pocket and made throws under pressure on the move. I 1087 00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:44,120 Speaker 1: thought he was fine. And then to kind of have 1088 00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:46,440 Speaker 1: a stinker last week. I want to see what happens 1089 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 1: in this game before way in on him. I know 1090 00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 1: that you that you called it a no show, and 1091 00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:54,279 Speaker 1: you know even the good teams that happens, But do 1092 00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:56,400 Speaker 1: you really feel that it's a no show. Do you 1093 00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 1: feel that the real Cardinals are just gonna show up 1094 00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:01,120 Speaker 1: and ride from here on out? I think they know 1095 00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:04,080 Speaker 1: showed in Buffalo and it's not unusual for the West 1096 00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,839 Speaker 1: Coast team, but come all the way across here's where 1097 00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:09,080 Speaker 1: I think there. I don't know if the preseason matters 1098 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 1: that much, but they talked. You know, they didn't play 1099 00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:13,240 Speaker 1: much in the preseason. When they did, they kind of stunk, 1100 00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:15,400 Speaker 1: and they said, well, we're gonna get it solved. And 1101 00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 1: it is a good article this week by Kent Summer's 1102 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,360 Speaker 1: Bruce Arian say we know what our problems are. And 1103 00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:21,520 Speaker 1: he said that for five stree weeks. And there's been 1104 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,440 Speaker 1: a malaise with this with this team in general, especially 1105 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 1: the offense, and they haven't been able to fix it yet. 1106 00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean they can't. One of the Beat writers calling 1107 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:31,240 Speaker 1: for Michael Floyd to be benched for Jeron Brown. Michael 1108 00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 1: Floyd's been terrible for three games. John Brown is only 1109 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:37,120 Speaker 1: playing less than half the snaps, which is it's just 1110 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:40,200 Speaker 1: strange what's happening with their wide receiver group. Let's move on. 1111 00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 1: Here's a game between the New Orleans Saints and the 1112 00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:46,480 Speaker 1: San Diego Chargers. Charges one and two could easily be 1113 00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 1: three and oh, they just could close out a couple 1114 00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:51,000 Speaker 1: of games, but that's not how football works. And here's 1115 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 1: a little interesting tidbit Chris Westling. This was Drew brees 1116 00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,840 Speaker 1: first game back in San Diego since he left the team. 1117 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 1: Uh game narrative Street, I've already heard too much about 1118 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 1: this that this week. Answer the question is that the 1119 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:10,920 Speaker 1: revenge game, dammit for whom Drew Brees. He wants revenge 1120 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:14,360 Speaker 1: on the Chargers. Yeah, into New Orleans to win a 1121 00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:17,400 Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Of course, you know they picked Philip Rivers 1122 00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:20,920 Speaker 1: over Drew Brees ten years ago. Was it the right decision. 1123 00:55:21,880 --> 00:55:23,920 Speaker 1: You really think if the NFL kicked you to the 1124 00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,120 Speaker 1: curb and you did much better somewhere else, when you 1125 00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: went back there for this first time, you wouldn't be 1126 00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:31,160 Speaker 1: peacocking around. Of course, he wants to bury bad analogy 1127 00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:38,440 Speaker 1: did history. Drew Brees had an awful season, terrible season, 1128 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 1: got benched. That's why. That's why they drafted Philip Rivers. 1129 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,200 Speaker 1: They had every right to draft Philip Rivers because Drew 1130 00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 1: Brees was terrible that here, and it was early and 1131 00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:49,280 Speaker 1: Drew Brees' career before he was established as a franchise quarterback. 1132 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 1: Nobody knew obviously he was gonna be the Drew Brees. 1133 00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:53,880 Speaker 1: If they could do it again, would they do it 1134 00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:56,440 Speaker 1: knowing what they know now? If they knew what they 1135 00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 1: know now, they would They would have kept Drew Brees. 1136 00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:01,160 Speaker 1: M Anyway, It's just a fun little thing, but it's 1137 00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:03,719 Speaker 1: not the biggest thing in the world. Yeah, it's sort 1138 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:07,200 Speaker 1: of like a manufactured controversy. But Chris loves these narratives, 1139 00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:09,279 Speaker 1: and whenever we can point one his way, I say 1140 00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:11,160 Speaker 1: we should. I wouldn't have called it out if it's 1141 00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:13,960 Speaker 1: just he's playing for the first time. What happens when 1142 00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:17,319 Speaker 1: the Chargers offense faces the Saints defense. Will the will 1143 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:20,040 Speaker 1: there be any healthy players by the end of the game. Yeah, 1144 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 1: I want to see what the Saints look like on 1145 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:26,680 Speaker 1: the road after they look so horrendous at home. They 1146 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:29,840 Speaker 1: their defense somehow only gave up nine points to the 1147 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:31,759 Speaker 1: Giants the last time they were on the road. The 1148 00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:34,759 Speaker 1: Giants offense. That feels like a million years ago. I mean, 1149 00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 1: it just seems like every game they have to go 1150 00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:41,560 Speaker 1: in the shine is off after what happened on on 1151 00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:45,319 Speaker 1: Monday night. But but the Chargers without Antonio Gates, Uh, 1152 00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 1: they certainly have their share of problems in general. I 1153 00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:52,239 Speaker 1: don't know if any game is a sure game for 1154 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 1: them in that defense right now? Could the four be 1155 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: without Brandon Flowers in this game? What if the four 1156 00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:59,759 Speaker 1: of us in Sydney and we just got another Flowers, 1157 00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: another five or six, you know, humans from around the office, 1158 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:05,320 Speaker 1: just sort of people that work in cubes. Could we 1159 00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:08,880 Speaker 1: score a field goal or a touchdown on the Saints defense? No? 1160 00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:13,640 Speaker 1: Do I played quarterback? Four voters? Yeah, we'd have four 1161 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 1: quarters to play. We wouldn't get positive and have endless 1162 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:18,600 Speaker 1: wouldn't come you to have endless. We could have a 1163 00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 1: roster of like three hundred people because people would constantly 1164 00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:24,200 Speaker 1: be getting hurt obviously, you know, you know, Secretary, I 1165 00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:26,200 Speaker 1: think we would be stifled. I think we'd be held 1166 00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 1: to about seventeen points. I see a little more in us. 1167 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:31,840 Speaker 1: We wouldn't get a yard. Yeah, I honestly think we 1168 00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:34,160 Speaker 1: wouldn't get up. You got a yard? You shotgun that 1169 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:36,640 Speaker 1: ball back? Chris Wesley throws it to someone streaking down 1170 00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 1: field one yard coming shot. Did you guys watch did 1171 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 1: you guys watch Monday Night's game? We're gonna get some yarded, 1172 00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:44,680 Speaker 1: thank you, thank you, Dan, good scouting. You're gonna tear 1173 00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:47,840 Speaker 1: your hand string before the opening bell. Listen, We're gonna 1174 00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,280 Speaker 1: get some points, it says the group of guys who 1175 00:57:50,280 --> 00:57:52,200 Speaker 1: are like no one stayed healthy through it. Oh, you 1176 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:55,920 Speaker 1: mean the group of champions. That's a good point. Champions, champs. 1177 00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 1: And we came in third place in Trivia Night and 1178 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 1: the Going Away Irishman Yesterday. Not just any trivia. The 1179 00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:09,040 Speaker 1: Garage in Palms, Los Angeles the hardest trivia I've ever 1180 00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 1: been apart. It's a very good trivial, most challenging as 1181 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:13,960 Speaker 1: far as all the nerds in one place. Come on, 1182 00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 1: Chargers and Saints fans have gotten their money's worth. There's nothing, 1183 00:58:17,680 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 1: there's no bit of information that we didn't uncover during 1184 00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,320 Speaker 1: this preview. All right, well then we should just move 1185 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 1: on then and talk about the Dallas Cowboys now two 1186 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 1: and one. But you know, more Dez drama. It's always 1187 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:31,240 Speaker 1: gonna be a part of the Dez story. There's always 1188 00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 1: gonna be something cooking. And this time it's about a 1189 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:37,160 Speaker 1: knee injury. Uh he suffered it, uh in in the 1190 00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:40,480 Speaker 1: win last week. Uh skip the MRI that the team 1191 00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:42,360 Speaker 1: wanted him to get. When he eventually did get the 1192 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:46,760 Speaker 1: knee tested, it revealed a hairline fracture, and initially the 1193 00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:48,480 Speaker 1: belief was that, oh, he could play through it. But 1194 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,480 Speaker 1: now it's starting to sound like he's gonna miss time. 1195 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:53,240 Speaker 1: So not only is there some kind of maybe some 1196 00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 1: bad blood between the two sides over the situation, No Deaz, 1197 00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 1: how much is that going to hurt the Cowboys? Mark Sessler? 1198 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:02,760 Speaker 1: It doesn't help at all. But if you want to 1199 00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:05,080 Speaker 1: talk about a week where you had to not have 1200 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 1: Dez Bryant, and it might be multiple weeks, but if 1201 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 1: you want to start that experiment, off I would pick 1202 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:12,720 Speaker 1: the San Francisco forty Niners who have given up what 1203 00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 1: eighty three points in two weeks after shutting down the 1204 00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 1: Rams in Week one. So I realized that it's in 1205 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 1: San Francisco. Maybe that changes things a little bit. But 1206 00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:24,280 Speaker 1: I look up and down the Dallas roster, especially on offense, 1207 00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 1: and say, there aren't many players in San Francisco that 1208 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:31,280 Speaker 1: you take over. What Dallas offers Dallas is better starters 1209 00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:34,440 Speaker 1: all over the place, all over the field. Dak Prescott 1210 00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:37,840 Speaker 1: has been I think Dak Prescott has been overshadowed by 1211 00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:40,520 Speaker 1: what Carson Wentz has done. If the Carson Wentz were 1212 00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 1: on the field and you had Sam Brad from there, 1213 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:45,360 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott would be getting a million stories, a million headlines. 1214 00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:48,680 Speaker 1: He's been fantastic for a young quarterback. Ezekiel Elliott, I 1215 00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 1: think broke out of his shell last week, played some 1216 00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:53,960 Speaker 1: played some excellent football on the ground, and I think 1217 00:59:54,040 --> 00:59:56,240 Speaker 1: this is a game that Dallas, unless they make a 1218 00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:59,320 Speaker 1: bunch of mistakes, there's no excuses not to win this game. 1219 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,400 Speaker 1: He doesn't have Dez Bryant, Doc doesn't, but he does 1220 01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 1: have his number one receiver, Cool Beasley. Yeah, he's not 1221 01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:07,960 Speaker 1: Jason Witten too. He looks to Cool Beasley when he's 1222 01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:12,400 Speaker 1: in trouble, not to Dez Bryant. This is a Cowboys team, though, 1223 01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:15,800 Speaker 1: I don't think you can underrate does being out of there. 1224 01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:17,800 Speaker 1: I know it's the forty Niners. And you're right. If 1225 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,840 Speaker 1: you were drying up a schedule, what cream puffs can 1226 01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 1: we play? You would take the Bears at home and 1227 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,080 Speaker 1: then the forty Niners on the road. It's as easy 1228 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:28,160 Speaker 1: as it gets. And yet that's just not how the 1229 01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:31,360 Speaker 1: NFL works. He's still a rookie quarterback going against the 1230 01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:35,480 Speaker 1: defense with with some quality veterans, with some good looking 1231 01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 1: rookies on the defense line. They haven't played well, but 1232 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:39,439 Speaker 1: they had one game out the one game they played 1233 01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 1: at home, they played well together. Like it wouldn't surprise 1234 01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:43,720 Speaker 1: me at off they're winning this game sixteen to ten, 1235 01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:45,600 Speaker 1: and the fourth well, what concerns me is you look 1236 01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:47,480 Speaker 1: at Carlos Hide and the box score tells you at 1237 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:50,120 Speaker 1: a hundred plus yards. It came in garbage time. He 1238 01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:52,360 Speaker 1: didn't do much until the game really was out of hand. 1239 01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 1: In San Francisco. You know that's they've they're piling up 1240 01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:57,160 Speaker 1: stats when it doesn't matter, and they have the worst 1241 01:00:57,280 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 1: quarterback in the league right now. I think Gabbert's playing 1242 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,480 Speaker 1: worse than anyone else. I mean, I think we could 1243 01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:04,360 Speaker 1: see Colin Kaepernick in this game. At some point I 1244 01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:06,040 Speaker 1: thought that was gonna happen last week. Did they have 1245 01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:08,360 Speaker 1: one of the worst coaches in the league. Look at 1246 01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:10,720 Speaker 1: what the Eagles are doing with the same defensive Personnelity 1247 01:01:11,000 --> 01:01:13,960 Speaker 1: Kelly had. Well he I don't think he gets as 1248 01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:16,040 Speaker 1: too involved in the defense. Well, you know that his 1249 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:19,440 Speaker 1: offense forces the defense. That that's right. Defensive players under 1250 01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:22,640 Speaker 1: Chip Kelly in Philadelphia and they're up twenty one to 1251 01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:25,080 Speaker 1: nothing on the Rams and still running plays with twenty 1252 01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:27,480 Speaker 1: five seconds left on the clock. This is Chip Kelly's 1253 01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:30,040 Speaker 1: m out. I have a prediction. I have a sessler. 1254 01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:33,680 Speaker 1: I'll even say about this game. Carson Wentz is the 1255 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,840 Speaker 1: favorite in the offensive Rookie of the Year battle. Ezekiel 1256 01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:39,120 Speaker 1: Eli is gonna go nuts in this game, coming off 1257 01:01:39,160 --> 01:01:41,160 Speaker 1: that game last week where he started to really get 1258 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:44,720 Speaker 1: his swag going. It's gonna go off buck eighty three 1259 01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:47,400 Speaker 1: touchdowns blow went for the Cowboys and people are going nuts. 1260 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:51,600 Speaker 1: That would help my sandwich prop which and Gregg has 1261 01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 1: the field. I think you might have the field to 1262 01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:55,320 Speaker 1: I might have taken the field, I think. I think 1263 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:58,360 Speaker 1: in those those are mostly just false award races. I 1264 01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:00,600 Speaker 1: don't put much stock in any of that, but I 1265 01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:02,720 Speaker 1: would say this that if you're a quarterback that has 1266 01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:06,040 Speaker 1: an outstanding season, good luck to anyone else. They're real awards. 1267 01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:08,480 Speaker 1: They are real awards, the real things that could hand 1268 01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 1: it out. I don't I'm just saying some of them 1269 01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 1: are at this point. If Carson Wentz stays healthy, I'd 1270 01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 1: be hard for me to imagine he wouldn't win it. Well, 1271 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:21,280 Speaker 1: he's got a n he's got to play well, Greg, 1272 01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:23,680 Speaker 1: It's only three games. Yeah, I mean we're talking if 1273 01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:25,960 Speaker 1: things continue a pace from here or not. Like, we've 1274 01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:30,800 Speaker 1: never seen a rookie quarterback the same league that gave 1275 01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:32,640 Speaker 1: Sam Bradford the Rookie of the Year when he had 1276 01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:35,520 Speaker 1: six yards per attempt. If it's because there was no competition, 1277 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:38,720 Speaker 1: that you, that's because Pat Shermer was spinning magic, pure magic, 1278 01:02:38,880 --> 01:02:42,840 Speaker 1: dark magic. What about this Mariota vers Winston thing. I 1279 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:45,800 Speaker 1: just want to see some fair play. You please not 1280 01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:48,560 Speaker 1: dive back into that. I will beg you not to 1281 01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 1: die back into that take it offline, go get a 1282 01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 1: sandwich together somewhere. Um, let's move on to the primetime 1283 01:02:54,280 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 1: games Sunday Night Football. Thank god no Bears involved this week, 1284 01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:02,240 Speaker 1: and we got a real good a f C game. 1285 01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:05,720 Speaker 1: The Kansas City Chiefs UH now two and one, coming 1286 01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 1: off that win against the Jets where they turned the 1287 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:11,400 Speaker 1: ball over I think eight times uh in the wind. 1288 01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 1: Travel to Pittsburgh again to face the Steelers, who really 1289 01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:19,160 Speaker 1: got beaten in all phases UH by Carson Winson. The 1290 01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:22,840 Speaker 1: Eagles UH on the road. So now they return home 1291 01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:26,200 Speaker 1: and you would think they're gonna be angry and they're 1292 01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:29,520 Speaker 1: gonna be pissed off. But greg Or West I should say, 1293 01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:33,200 Speaker 1: the Chiefs need some respect. Let's give us some respect. 1294 01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:34,919 Speaker 1: They're gonna hang in this game, aren't they. Of course 1295 01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:37,919 Speaker 1: they're gonna hang And you know you you talk about 1296 01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:40,920 Speaker 1: the Drew Brees revenge game, but do not underestimate the 1297 01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 1: Todd Haley revenge game. Here Like dum tim and now 1298 01:03:45,120 --> 01:03:47,200 Speaker 1: he's proven to be one of the best offensive coordinators 1299 01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:50,400 Speaker 1: in the league. I'm really looking forward to Marcus Peters, 1300 01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:53,160 Speaker 1: who won Defensive Player of the Week. Big Ben and 1301 01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:56,960 Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin raved about him Wednesday, saying he's a phenomenal player, 1302 01:03:57,040 --> 01:04:00,640 Speaker 1: tremendous talent. He's allowed a thirty nine passer eating this year. 1303 01:04:01,040 --> 01:04:04,000 Speaker 1: There's this perception that Marcus Peters gives up too many plays, 1304 01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:06,600 Speaker 1: which is wrong, since since the bye week of his 1305 01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:08,959 Speaker 1: rookie season, he is in the top five and lowest 1306 01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:13,320 Speaker 1: completion percentage and lowest passer rating, and he has led 1307 01:04:13,360 --> 01:04:16,800 Speaker 1: the NFL and passes defense and interception since he stepped 1308 01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:19,880 Speaker 1: foot in the NFL. Marcus Peters a legitimate start, somebody 1309 01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:23,160 Speaker 1: who could actually take on Antonio Brown for real one 1310 01:04:23,200 --> 01:04:26,800 Speaker 1: on one. Let's not get too excited about I want 1311 01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:29,360 Speaker 1: it lest I writing. I wanted wrote an article before 1312 01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:30,880 Speaker 1: I left last night. You can check it out. I 1313 01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:34,160 Speaker 1: was gonna say talking about Marcus Peters. Marcus Peters plays 1314 01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:36,400 Speaker 1: in the left of the field, and he doesn't travel 1315 01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:39,320 Speaker 1: like Patrick Peterson. He's allowed to peek in the backfield 1316 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:42,439 Speaker 1: because he's got help coming his way. Antonio Brown mostly 1317 01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:43,840 Speaker 1: stays on the right side of the field, so I 1318 01:04:43,920 --> 01:04:48,880 Speaker 1: would not like sometimes every now might they might be 1319 01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:51,120 Speaker 1: matched up on occasion. I want to watch out all 1320 01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:54,480 Speaker 1: the time. This is the year of everyone discussing the cornerback, 1321 01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:57,120 Speaker 1: wide receiver matchup and who's gonna play on what side 1322 01:04:57,160 --> 01:05:00,280 Speaker 1: of the field and who travels every single week? Well, 1323 01:05:00,320 --> 01:05:02,600 Speaker 1: I wanted to play against each other. Can I tell 1324 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:04,280 Speaker 1: you something that can make you feel a little bit better. 1325 01:05:05,320 --> 01:05:07,680 Speaker 1: Marcus Peters is worth watching no matter who he's covering. 1326 01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown is worth watching no matter who's covering him. 1327 01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:14,360 Speaker 1: Plus there's some some other dynamic players on the Steelers 1328 01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:19,400 Speaker 1: bell back. It doesn't get suspended by the time maybe 1329 01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:22,280 Speaker 1: Marcus Wheels on drop three passes or you know, Marcus 1330 01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:25,840 Speaker 1: Peters on Sammy coats deep down the field. They they 1331 01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:28,800 Speaker 1: probably won't be with Eli Rodgers this week, which which 1332 01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:31,520 Speaker 1: hurts which surprisingly hurts them a lot. And I guess 1333 01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:34,920 Speaker 1: Wheaton goes to the slot. Yeah, most likely Wheaton plays 1334 01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:37,040 Speaker 1: in the slot. Sammy coachs is good for one for 1335 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:40,480 Speaker 1: yard reception a week because Ben ben is easily the 1336 01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:43,280 Speaker 1: best deep ball thrower in the NFL. Agree with that, 1337 01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:46,600 Speaker 1: and facing off a guy Alex Smith who doesn't go 1338 01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:49,240 Speaker 1: deep too much, but it's gonna be extremely hard to sack. 1339 01:05:49,360 --> 01:05:51,760 Speaker 1: The Steelers might have the worst pass rush of any 1340 01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:54,640 Speaker 1: team in the league. I think the Eagles showed it 1341 01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:57,800 Speaker 1: last week, Carson Wentz had all day to throw. It's 1342 01:05:57,880 --> 01:05:59,960 Speaker 1: I think it's a major problem for this this steel 1343 01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:02,880 Speaker 1: there's team for the rest of the season. They don't 1344 01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:04,880 Speaker 1: have any pass rush. You're not gonna get to Alex Smith. 1345 01:06:05,560 --> 01:06:07,600 Speaker 1: He'll he'll move the ball up and down. Their best 1346 01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:10,360 Speaker 1: pass rushers. Thirty eight years old football outsiders had them 1347 01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:13,200 Speaker 1: as the number two teams so far the Chiefs. Do 1348 01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:15,840 Speaker 1: we have any concerns. We love Big Ben in this room, 1349 01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:17,920 Speaker 1: but he's been a little sloppy with the ball. It's 1350 01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:21,000 Speaker 1: been a while now, his numbers aren't that great when 1351 01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:23,120 Speaker 1: you stretch back the last seven or eight games. Now, 1352 01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:25,840 Speaker 1: I have zero concerns about Ben Roethlisberger. Yeah, I mean, 1353 01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:27,880 Speaker 1: if we're going to talk about teams like the Cardinals 1354 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:30,880 Speaker 1: and you know, other quarterbacks, not worrying about the the 1355 01:06:31,040 --> 01:06:33,480 Speaker 1: ugly start so far, look, get back on track. I 1356 01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:35,480 Speaker 1: just always feel the way about Big Ben because he's 1357 01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:37,960 Speaker 1: done it a decade plus. Also ten and oh, following 1358 01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:40,080 Speaker 1: a loss for the Steelers the last ten games with 1359 01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 1: Ben at quarterback that that game was weird in Philadelphia. 1360 01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:44,880 Speaker 1: They blew up. They didn't have the ball that much, 1361 01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:48,280 Speaker 1: not many possessions a couple of drives ended ugly. I 1362 01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:50,880 Speaker 1: don't think Roethlisberger played poorly to start. He hasn't been 1363 01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:53,320 Speaker 1: on fire. He's made a lot of plays, but he 1364 01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:55,000 Speaker 1: hasn't been playing back well. I think, like we've talked 1365 01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:57,640 Speaker 1: about not having more Tavis Brian in there is a 1366 01:06:57,800 --> 01:06:59,760 Speaker 1: dimension of their offense that got stripped away. And you 1367 01:06:59,760 --> 01:07:02,320 Speaker 1: didn't levy on Bell. He is an excellent pass catcher 1368 01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:05,360 Speaker 1: as well. We'll see what happens. All right, let's move on. 1369 01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:11,840 Speaker 1: Are you dead inside? Ready to give up?

Body, I didn't write it. 1387 01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:08,240 Speaker 1: I have nothing. I just whatever was handed to me 1388 01:08:08,280 --> 01:08:11,040 Speaker 1: when I walked in. That's clearly not someone from the 1389 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:15,600 Speaker 1: NFL sales department that has no concept. No way are 1390 01:08:15,640 --> 01:08:18,280 Speaker 1: they involved with this. I haven't heard anything either yet. 1391 01:08:19,560 --> 01:08:22,720 Speaker 1: Are they selling anything? We don't need it. We're we're 1392 01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:25,439 Speaker 1: out of the sales business. We got our sponsor. Uh 1393 01:08:25,600 --> 01:08:29,719 Speaker 1: moving On Monday night, football Ladies and gentlemen, a battle 1394 01:08:30,120 --> 01:08:34,040 Speaker 1: between the New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings. Oh, saucy 1395 01:08:34,160 --> 01:08:36,400 Speaker 1: the Giants, they should be three and oh they're kicking 1396 01:08:36,479 --> 01:08:39,800 Speaker 1: themselves because they made every stupid mistake in the book 1397 01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:43,920 Speaker 1: and letting one get away against the Redskins. Uh A, 1398 01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:46,760 Speaker 1: now two and one, and now they travel and face 1399 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:54,680 Speaker 1: the Vikings, a team of a t L finalists. And 1400 01:08:54,760 --> 01:08:57,240 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, Mark, I know you're nervous. You 1401 01:08:57,400 --> 01:08:59,519 Speaker 1: you don't want the tide to turn against the Vikings, 1402 01:08:59,640 --> 01:09:02,080 Speaker 1: or perhaps you you have new nerves that there's already 1403 01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:05,439 Speaker 1: a tied against the Vikings and this isn't gonna work out. 1404 01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:07,720 Speaker 1: But you know what, you get to four and oh 1405 01:09:07,840 --> 01:09:09,479 Speaker 1: and you take it to the Giants, who we all 1406 01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:12,040 Speaker 1: like on both sides of the ball, you got a 1407 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:16,920 Speaker 1: real good case, not even slightly nervous. Really, even if 1408 01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:18,479 Speaker 1: they go three and one, and then if they went 1409 01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:21,680 Speaker 1: three and seven, I'm still excited about my decision. Right, 1410 01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:24,720 Speaker 1: But we're talking about the team of a t L 1411 01:09:29,320 --> 01:09:31,560 Speaker 1: fascinating matchup. I mean, we've seen what the Giants have 1412 01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:33,680 Speaker 1: done through the air, and actually they've ran the ball well. 1413 01:09:33,720 --> 01:09:36,320 Speaker 1: I think losing Shane Vereen doesn't help. He's out this week, correct, 1414 01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:38,600 Speaker 1: he's out for the season. We don't know if for 1415 01:09:38,640 --> 01:09:41,400 Speaker 1: Shoan Jennings is gonna be back this week. They're using 1416 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:46,880 Speaker 1: two lanes on Orleans darkwa last week. Get some Bobby 1417 01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:49,920 Speaker 1: Rainy out there. Bobby Rainey made a play for them. 1418 01:09:50,080 --> 01:09:52,759 Speaker 1: I don't feel good about this game if you're a Giants, 1419 01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:54,880 Speaker 1: if you're a Giants fan, I just don't see this 1420 01:09:54,960 --> 01:09:57,120 Speaker 1: team moving the ball enough. I know they've got good 1421 01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:59,680 Speaker 1: wide receivers, but I think if you look at the 1422 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:02,760 Speaker 1: d fences that New York has played so far this year, 1423 01:10:03,040 --> 01:10:05,559 Speaker 1: it has been cupcake city. I think their offensive line 1424 01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:08,479 Speaker 1: in their past protection for ELI has looked better than 1425 01:10:08,560 --> 01:10:11,599 Speaker 1: it really is because of the matchups that they've played. 1426 01:10:11,640 --> 01:10:16,560 Speaker 1: They played New Orleans, Dallas, and Washington. Find three defenses 1427 01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:18,720 Speaker 1: that are softer than that. And now you gotta go 1428 01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:21,679 Speaker 1: play the Vikings. I know they've only scored three offensive 1429 01:10:21,760 --> 01:10:25,040 Speaker 1: touchdowns this season. I don't care. That's why it's my 1430 01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:28,920 Speaker 1: lock of the week. Whoa, you're locking it up. I'm 1431 01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:31,000 Speaker 1: locking it up that and I forgot about the lock 1432 01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:33,080 Speaker 1: of the week until we got to the last. This 1433 01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:34,439 Speaker 1: is a large It's a good way to go over 1434 01:10:34,479 --> 01:10:38,839 Speaker 1: the lock of a week. Absolutely. I love we isolate 1435 01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:42,479 Speaker 1: that absolutely for future use. Can we play that a 1436 01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:44,559 Speaker 1: thousand times in a row at the end of the show. 1437 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:50,920 Speaker 1: Please brace yourself. I really like this Giants team. M hmm. 1438 01:10:52,840 --> 01:10:55,040 Speaker 1: You know I love when you give New York teams love. Well, 1439 01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:56,720 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't like to do it because they 1440 01:10:56,800 --> 01:11:00,320 Speaker 1: get so much love from the population already. It's actually 1441 01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 1: the media which is so effusive in praise and coverage 1442 01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:05,400 Speaker 1: of New York, right, but you know the Bermuda try 1443 01:11:05,439 --> 01:11:08,640 Speaker 1: and what do you know. Let's let's focus on the 1444 01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:11,200 Speaker 1: actual good team. Mark has talked about the receivers which 1445 01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:13,519 Speaker 1: are the most productive in the NFL, and it's no 1446 01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:18,160 Speaker 1: coincidence that two thousand and fourteen draft Dave Gettleman says, look, 1447 01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:20,680 Speaker 1: you can take all these other receivers. Odell Beckham's the 1448 01:11:20,720 --> 01:11:23,519 Speaker 1: only NFL route runner in the draft. They take the 1449 01:11:23,560 --> 01:11:26,439 Speaker 1: best NFL route runner in two fourteen. Then they take 1450 01:11:26,479 --> 01:11:28,720 Speaker 1: Sterling Shepherd, the best route runner by far in this 1451 01:11:28,880 --> 01:11:31,760 Speaker 1: draft class. And it's no it's no coincidence that this 1452 01:11:31,920 --> 01:11:35,839 Speaker 1: these guys are on fire. Immediate route that Sterling Shepherd 1453 01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:38,519 Speaker 1: put on Deshaun Phillips for that touchdown last week where 1454 01:11:38,560 --> 01:11:40,599 Speaker 1: he faked one way and went the other, just lost 1455 01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:42,680 Speaker 1: him right off the line of scrimmage. These guys, I 1456 01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:44,719 Speaker 1: think can get open on anyone. It makes you wonder 1457 01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:47,639 Speaker 1: why more people don't when they're scouting in the draft, 1458 01:11:48,439 --> 01:11:51,120 Speaker 1: value that more, the ability to play the position that 1459 01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:53,280 Speaker 1: way rather than just depend on the ross. I think 1460 01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:56,360 Speaker 1: some teams are looking for. They want big monster receivers, 1461 01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:59,400 Speaker 1: they want certain speed. Necessarily, you can't when you look 1462 01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:01,080 Speaker 1: at the draft. There's no way you can look at 1463 01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:03,400 Speaker 1: Corey Coleman and say, hey, I don't want his playmaking 1464 01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:06,880 Speaker 1: ability even if Sterling Sharps or Sterling Shepherd's a better route. 1465 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:09,640 Speaker 1: Where's Lakwan Treadwell by the way, because he was he 1466 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:12,360 Speaker 1: was taking for Sterling Shepherd and he's not even on 1467 01:12:12,439 --> 01:12:15,759 Speaker 1: the grid. He's literally an active last week, a healthy scratch, 1468 01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:18,519 Speaker 1: and we heard bad things about him in August about 1469 01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:21,280 Speaker 1: maybe this progress wasn't going too well. I mean that 1470 01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:24,920 Speaker 1: that seems like quite a whizzo Washington. You know what's weird. 1471 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:27,280 Speaker 1: I mean, they could use la Kwan Treadwell so act 1472 01:12:27,439 --> 01:12:31,160 Speaker 1: that that's not true. But they are getting enough production 1473 01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:35,120 Speaker 1: out of their receivers. They've got a number one receiver 1474 01:12:35,200 --> 01:12:38,160 Speaker 1: in Stefon Diggs, Kyle Rudolph. It's three games, but he's 1475 01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:41,000 Speaker 1: playing like a very good starting tight end, like a 1476 01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:43,840 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl type of tight end, Adam Feeling. If you 1477 01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:45,960 Speaker 1: watch him, I mean, he looks like a pretty good 1478 01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:49,519 Speaker 1: rotational receiver. Maybe they could use one more. I'm just 1479 01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:52,760 Speaker 1: amazed by a team where Sam Bradford is managing to 1480 01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:55,800 Speaker 1: win some games with no offensive line and no running game. 1481 01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:59,080 Speaker 1: The worst running game in the in the NFL pretty 1482 01:12:59,160 --> 01:13:01,120 Speaker 1: much on in terms of the number. So I'd say 1483 01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:04,599 Speaker 1: you're down on Jerick McKinnon. Then here's a different he's 1484 01:13:04,600 --> 01:13:06,240 Speaker 1: a different way, different way to look at la Kwan 1485 01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:09,360 Speaker 1: treadwell that Mike Zimmer comes from a Bengals organization that 1486 01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:12,160 Speaker 1: rarely rushed rookies in and now he does the same 1487 01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:15,280 Speaker 1: thing in Minnesota, So give him credit for not putting 1488 01:13:15,320 --> 01:13:18,559 Speaker 1: players and before they're ready. Trey Wayne's playing better than 1489 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:21,680 Speaker 1: expected this year because he's finally ready after sitting Lands year. 1490 01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:25,800 Speaker 1: I guess the biggest concern for the Vikings entering Week 1491 01:13:25,880 --> 01:13:28,120 Speaker 1: four is that despite being three and oh, they just 1492 01:13:28,200 --> 01:13:31,040 Speaker 1: have three touchdowns on offense the entire season. I didn't 1493 01:13:31,040 --> 01:13:33,920 Speaker 1: have to score more points? Where the points coming from? 1494 01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:36,840 Speaker 1: When their first round picks not giving them anything and 1495 01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:39,720 Speaker 1: they don't and ap has gone where the points coming from? 1496 01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:42,200 Speaker 1: All I would say is, and this may not be 1497 01:13:42,280 --> 01:13:45,519 Speaker 1: the reason, but you're starting quarterback joined the team days 1498 01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:48,040 Speaker 1: before the season begins and has played way better than 1499 01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:50,160 Speaker 1: anybody you would have expected. I mean, I got asked 1500 01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:53,400 Speaker 1: what happens like when Titty Bridgewater is healthy? To be honest, 1501 01:13:53,439 --> 01:13:55,560 Speaker 1: if we don't even know whoever be. We don't know 1502 01:13:55,640 --> 01:13:58,559 Speaker 1: if who'll ever be himself. Sam Bradford won't be healthy 1503 01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:01,000 Speaker 1: either though. The way the lines playing, I think it's 1504 01:14:01,040 --> 01:14:03,120 Speaker 1: been probably underplayed because they're three and o. They've been 1505 01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:07,439 Speaker 1: a disaster. They Mike Zimmer made a lot of noises offseason. 1506 01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:09,880 Speaker 1: We weren't tough on the offensive line. The rest of 1507 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:11,719 Speaker 1: the team is tough. We weren't tough. So they signed 1508 01:14:11,720 --> 01:14:14,720 Speaker 1: Alex Boon, They've signed Andre Smith. They've both struggled. They 1509 01:14:14,800 --> 01:14:17,120 Speaker 1: haven't been able to run the ball. Andre Smith especially 1510 01:14:17,200 --> 01:14:20,000 Speaker 1: has has played really poorly. That's a problem. I don't 1511 01:14:20,080 --> 01:14:22,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if they overcome that. The Giants would 1512 01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:24,000 Speaker 1: think would be able to take advantage. And yet the 1513 01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:26,160 Speaker 1: one if they're a weird team, because the one part 1514 01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:28,479 Speaker 1: that's a little disappointed with the Giants is their pass rush. 1515 01:14:28,680 --> 01:14:30,519 Speaker 1: They don't really have a pass rush. Yet you're a 1516 01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:33,479 Speaker 1: big JPP guy, he's been okay. He's been the best 1517 01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:35,439 Speaker 1: one rushing the passer of all the because but he 1518 01:14:35,479 --> 01:14:38,599 Speaker 1: hasn't been great either. I'd like to see more um 1519 01:14:39,040 --> 01:14:41,840 Speaker 1: on the Giants pass or the Giants offensive line has 1520 01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:45,040 Speaker 1: been great. Eli only hit seven times the entire season, 1521 01:14:45,120 --> 01:14:47,320 Speaker 1: so a lot of that's eli too. I like uh, 1522 01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:49,240 Speaker 1: I like the Giants in this game. I like the 1523 01:14:49,280 --> 01:14:51,400 Speaker 1: Giants getting too three and one and the Vikings losing 1524 01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:53,400 Speaker 1: their first game of the year. West, where do you 1525 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:56,000 Speaker 1: come down in this? I agree with you, Mark, You're 1526 01:14:56,040 --> 01:14:58,280 Speaker 1: gonna go four? No Vikings. Well, I can't pick the 1527 01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:01,360 Speaker 1: Giants in the situation and I'm tangled up in right now, 1528 01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:03,320 Speaker 1: so but I do think the Vikings will win. Also, 1529 01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:06,000 Speaker 1: my lock of the week will be that I lock 1530 01:15:06,080 --> 01:15:08,880 Speaker 1: it up. I will ever pick a lock of the week. Wow, 1531 01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:13,240 Speaker 1: he is so against the segment. I have to admire 1532 01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:16,360 Speaker 1: your resilience. You really, Doug, Why why don't you want 1533 01:15:16,360 --> 01:15:17,920 Speaker 1: to be a part of the segment? You should answer 1534 01:15:17,920 --> 01:15:20,880 Speaker 1: to that. I think that our segments are fun and 1535 01:15:20,920 --> 01:15:22,680 Speaker 1: cool and interesting and add a lot to the show. 1536 01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:26,479 Speaker 1: And this adds like nothing and takes away from it all, Right, 1537 01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:31,240 Speaker 1: Chris West, gather the family around the fire listeners, it's 1538 01:15:31,320 --> 01:15:34,920 Speaker 1: just more and more fun. Have you asked the question? Like? 1539 01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:39,160 Speaker 1: I think it's a ridiculous answer. It doesn't make sense. 1540 01:15:39,439 --> 01:15:42,519 Speaker 1: There's none of the none of the locks that were given. 1541 01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:45,720 Speaker 1: We're locks like the jets is in the Browns is 1542 01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:47,680 Speaker 1: a wish cast. By the way, Craig just likes the 1543 01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:50,840 Speaker 1: vikings at home. By the way, in your mind, Josh Gordon, 1544 01:15:50,960 --> 01:15:53,880 Speaker 1: our lock of the week, not yours, Josh, I know, 1545 01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:56,120 Speaker 1: but we've never picked locks. Were like, oh, these games 1546 01:15:56,160 --> 01:15:58,800 Speaker 1: aren't allowed because they're too much lock. You want to 1547 01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:01,400 Speaker 1: let pick some games that are not a little fodder 1548 01:16:01,479 --> 01:16:04,439 Speaker 1: to West's argument, Josh Gordon. The Browns have announced that 1549 01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:07,880 Speaker 1: Josh Gordon as Uh entered inpatient rehab and will not 1550 01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:10,720 Speaker 1: be returning anytime soon potentially. What does that have to 1551 01:16:10,760 --> 01:16:14,959 Speaker 1: do with comment that I am wish casting Brown's victories completely. 1552 01:16:15,280 --> 01:16:18,960 Speaker 1: He's going back into rehab. Yeah, it doesn't really impact 1553 01:16:19,080 --> 01:16:21,760 Speaker 1: this week's game, but it impacts my That was more 1554 01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:24,920 Speaker 1: breaking news from Marks. Yeah that's what that was. Well, 1555 01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:27,160 Speaker 1: it's like eight seven people talking at the same time. 1556 01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:28,960 Speaker 1: How do you get it done? But like I mean, 1557 01:16:29,040 --> 01:16:32,080 Speaker 1: it impacts my mental health going into two days off. 1558 01:16:32,600 --> 01:16:35,000 Speaker 1: See you on Sunday. West. It's called being a team player. 1559 01:16:35,160 --> 01:16:38,320 Speaker 1: Why are you throwing up a fit on this? You 1560 01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:40,800 Speaker 1: should join us? Well, it's not it's not a fit. 1561 01:16:41,080 --> 01:16:43,360 Speaker 1: You asked me a question, so I answered it. I 1562 01:16:43,479 --> 01:16:45,960 Speaker 1: told the truth is what happened but I wasn't involved 1563 01:16:45,960 --> 01:16:47,920 Speaker 1: in the meetings where it was decided that this lock 1564 01:16:48,120 --> 01:16:50,479 Speaker 1: was So who's being a team player when I wasn't 1565 01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:52,320 Speaker 1: even involved in the discussion. Do you want to come 1566 01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:54,560 Speaker 1: in earlier to be involved with a meeting? Well, I 1567 01:16:54,600 --> 01:16:56,400 Speaker 1: think you could text me or something. Well, we haven't 1568 01:16:56,439 --> 01:16:58,320 Speaker 1: that we have a dial in phone device. He could 1569 01:16:58,320 --> 01:17:00,240 Speaker 1: dial in like while he's walking around the beach. You 1570 01:17:00,320 --> 01:17:02,080 Speaker 1: gotta add it to the list. We gotta make make 1571 01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:04,640 Speaker 1: sure everybody's happy. We're gonna work on this lock of 1572 01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:06,760 Speaker 1: the week with West and we will let everyone know 1573 01:17:07,240 --> 01:17:10,320 Speaker 1: where it goes from here. But the next time you 1574 01:17:10,479 --> 01:17:13,960 Speaker 1: hear from us, by the way, there's no way West 1575 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:15,400 Speaker 1: does a lock of the week. Now, now that we 1576 01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:17,760 Speaker 1: went down this road, that's my lock of the week. 1577 01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:20,240 Speaker 1: West will never do a lock of the week. So 1578 01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:22,200 Speaker 1: you just agree with my lack of the week as 1579 01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:23,760 Speaker 1: your lock of the week. By lock of the week is, 1580 01:17:23,800 --> 01:17:25,479 Speaker 1: we will not change your mind on this. My lock 1581 01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:28,280 Speaker 1: has already told you I wasn't going to lock it up. 1582 01:17:28,840 --> 01:17:30,320 Speaker 1: My lock of the week is the lock of the 1583 01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:32,920 Speaker 1: week will no longer exist in a few weeks. Lock 1584 01:17:33,000 --> 01:17:37,680 Speaker 1: it up. Well, it's getting good now, You've underestimated me, 1585 01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:40,320 Speaker 1: because I'll never let it die. Lock that up. Now, 1586 01:17:40,439 --> 01:17:43,679 Speaker 1: these segments get good. I love it. Keep locking the week. 1587 01:17:44,160 --> 01:17:46,400 Speaker 1: I'll also lock up that. Greg will kill a segment 1588 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:49,559 Speaker 1: every week until he leaves the NFL media. Lock it up, 1589 01:17:51,120 --> 01:17:53,240 Speaker 1: not the Boss anymore? Buddy?
