But let's 93 00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 3: start with the dramatic team. Okay, the Jets week they 94 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 3: fired their head coach. This week he traded for Aaron 95 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 3: Rodgers guy. DeVante Adams is now a Jet and the 96 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 3: day after the Jets lost to the Bills. This is 97 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 3: also their first game after firing their head coach, Robert Sala, 98 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 3: who was not the problem, the crazy part. 99 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 4: He was a problem, not the problem, but there were 100 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 4: a lot of problems. 101 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 3: Okay, the crazy part to me though, Like with all 102 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 3: of this, Davante was already at Aaron Rodgers place before 103 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 3: the news was breaking. We saw him in the background 104 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 3: of Aaron's interview on the Pat McAfee show, like as 105 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 3: the news was breaking, so like he was in New York. 106 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 2: He like I wouldn't he. 107 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 4: Was not a red eye like immediately following that game. 108 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 2: The moment, yes, the moment that he could be there. 109 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 3: I mean, then you saw DeVante Adams on Kay Adams 110 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 3: up in Adams and Rogers like kind of popped in 111 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 3: on his interview with Kevin Durant. I think we all 112 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 3: kind of knew this is where I did, at least 113 00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 3: where he was going to end up. It's where he 114 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 3: wanted to he said, he wanted to play with a quarterback. 115 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 3: He's already played with Derek Carr obviously not playing at 116 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 3: the moment, and as we've seen, Aaron Rodgers, how's the poll, Aaron, 117 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers once it's insane. That same night, Aaron Rodgers 118 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 3: called out Mike Williams for running the wrong route on 119 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 3: that final interception on the Monday night football game. 120 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 2: And now he's on it's the trade block. 121 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 5: It's so funny because I I joked, I joked that 122 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 5: Mike Williams was never going to catch another or never 123 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 5: going to be targeted by Aaron Rodgers again on Twitter 124 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 5: right when the drop happened, and then I was like, oh, 125 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 5: oh no, oh no, it's actually he's never going to 126 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 5: be targeted by Aaron Rodgers. 127 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 128 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 3: Also, like not a very classic move in my opinion, 129 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 3: teammates out publicly like that, have a combo personally with 130 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 3: the guy, like this is also his livelihood in his career. 131 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 5: Zachy Williams is a vet, Like you don't, He's been 132 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 5: around the block, He's had a lot of success in 133 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 5: this league. You don't, You don't do that, get to 134 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 5: say that, you just don't do that. 135 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 3: But like, also now we know there is no way 136 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 3: that Aaron Rodger did not have a say in the 137 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 3: Robert Sola situation. Everything is lining up perfectly for what 138 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers. 139 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 5: The only one that hasn't gone Aaron Rodgers' way is 140 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 5: that Nathaniel Hackett no longer calls plays because that's his dude, 141 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 5: Like that is his best one of his best friends. 142 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 5: And that's the one thing where I was like, Okay, 143 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 5: so you didn't get one thing that you wanted. But 144 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 5: I guess you, even if you're Aaron Rodgers, you have 145 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 5: to concede on something. 146 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,559 Speaker 2: But like, yeah, maybe it's like, okay, give it a moment. 147 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 2: Is it forever? Is it just like for the time, yes, 148 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 2: just for like. 149 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 5: I mean, well no, I mean it's it's at the 150 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 5: discretion of Jeff Olbrick, who knew who's the interim head coach, 151 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 5: so he gets to decide whether or not. And I 152 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 5: can't imagine you would switch back and forth between play 153 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 5: callers because you need to give your the You need 154 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:44,679 Speaker 5: to give. 155 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 4: Now like time. 156 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 5: You need time at this point to not h to 157 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 5: install the new system and to you know, get those 158 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 5: new things going. Like I said, though, I think we 159 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 5: talked about this last time. Matt Lafleur when Aaron Rodgers 160 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 5: was still in Green Bay. Yeah, Matt let Floor cop 161 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 5: to the fact that Aaron Rodgers changes like thirty percent 162 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 5: of the place. 163 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, if you're copping to that, that means it's way. 164 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 2: More, way more. 165 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 4: It's way more. 166 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 2: That's what people know. 167 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 4: This is Aaron. 168 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 2: Was his team. 169 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, as we're seeing, No, he is literally the Jets 170 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 3: like handed in the keys and they're like, Okay, our 171 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 3: future is in your hands. But the real question is now, 172 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 3: can DeVante Adams save the Jets? Does he make a 173 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 3: big enough difference? Yes, he's a great wide receiver. And 174 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 3: I think Aaron Rodgers is going to be happier now because, 175 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 3: like he has his guy that he trusts and hopefully 176 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 3: doesn't throw him under the bus. I can't imagine him 177 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 3: throwing over the bus the same way he just did 178 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 3: with Will No, it's a lot insane. 179 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 4: Like Rogers rides for his guys. 180 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, and like DeVante Adams is also staying with Aaron 181 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 5: Rodgers while he gets a place in New York. 182 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 2: Like this is very Tom Brady and who. 183 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's still not the same as that though that 184 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 5: was that was a We're going to try to make 185 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 5: sure that you're on the straight and narrow with a 186 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 5: B you don't need to worry about that with Devonte Adams, 187 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 5: he's a professional. It's more of they're just best friends. 188 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 5: Like that's the relationship they have. But again, like Aaron 189 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:19,239 Speaker 5: Rodgers keeps adding pressure to himself and if this doesn't 190 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 5: go right, this is entirely. 191 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 4: On Aaron Rodgers. 192 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I tend to think that, Like, I get it. 193 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 5: You now got a guy you trust and if you 194 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 5: look at I mean even this last game, though Garrett 195 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 5: Wilson finally got double digit targets from Aaron Rodgers, Alan 196 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 5: Lozart still led the team in receiving yards and it 197 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 5: was largely due to that. 198 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 4: Hell Mary that he ended up catching. 199 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers is just stupid good that I think that 200 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 5: was the fourth in his career. 201 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 4: But he gravitates. 202 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers gravitates towards who he's comfortable with, regardless of 203 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 5: the talent that he has. 204 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 4: On the team. 205 00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 5: Like it, Garrett Wilson is one of the best young 206 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 5: receivers in league right now. You should be targeting him 207 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 5: all the time. We've finally seen that happen. But now 208 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 5: I'm worried that DeVante Adams comes and that's when Aaron 209 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 5: Rodgers falls back on. I guess that really should be 210 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 5: worried for Alan Lazard, because I don't think Alan Lazard 211 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 5: is on a team if it's not for Aaron Rodgers 212 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,880 Speaker 5: at this point, So he's probably gonna get his targets 213 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 5: pulled back. I just hope that there's a good mix 214 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 5: between Garrett Wilson and DeVante Adams because I do think 215 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 5: that that is going to stress defenses a lot. 216 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, now these options like that he trusts. 217 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's the biggest difference. 218 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 5: That's the crazy part when you talk about Aaron Rodgers, 219 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 5: I think as one of the great quarterbacks of our generation, 220 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 5: there's so much more than on the field, Like, so 221 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 5: much more than on the field goes into that because. 222 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 4: If you talk about, like if you're gonna put. 223 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers in the same conversation as Tom Brady, tom 224 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 5: Brady was a wonderful teammate, it wasn't and he was. 225 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 5: He came in, Yes, he brought Gronk, Yes, he ended 226 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 5: up bringing a b and there was some other pieces 227 00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 5: that you know, he kind of recruited. 228 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 4: As far as free agents. 229 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 5: Go, but it's not as if he was forcing the 230 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 5: ball to Gronk every other second. When he first got there, 231 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 5: Rock was primarily a blocking tight end. 232 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 4: He even joked about it. When he got to Tampa. 233 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 5: He really took Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Cam Braid, some 234 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 5: of these like other title under his wing, made sure 235 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 5: that they understood how he liked to do things. I 236 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 5: watched Tom Brady at practice while the defense was on 237 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 5: the field, when the ones on the offense were, you know, getting. 238 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 4: Their rest or whatever. 239 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 5: He would take his entire offensive corps plus his line, 240 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 5: and he would take them off to the side and 241 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 5: they would walk through certain routes. They would walk through 242 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 5: certain things so that they knew the timing, they knew 243 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 5: the steps that they needed to get to. 244 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 4: They needed to know where they got on the field. 245 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 5: That's why, like he utilized every practice field on at 246 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 5: the Bucks facility, even if the ones weren't on the 247 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 5: field actually going through their practice there. 248 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 3: Who are you saying that you see and Rogers as 249 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 3: like one of these guys that's putting in that work. 250 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 4: No, that's I'm saying. I'm saying that's opposite. 251 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 2: He is not that guy. 252 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 5: I'm saying that if we put him in the same 253 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 5: conversation as Tom Brady, then he needs to be doing 254 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 5: those things. 255 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 3: And we don't see that he's calling him out and 256 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 3: said and throwing him under the bus. 257 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 5: He's he's calling out his receivers and then he's telling yeah, Jets, 258 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 5: the Jets brass. Hey, I want Davante Adams, get him 259 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 5: over here for me, or again, I want Alan Lazzart. 260 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 5: He's the one that he's the reason that he's there. Oh, 261 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 5: I want Nathaniel Hackett. Make sure he's my offensive coordinator. 262 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 5: He is calling all he's bringing in all of these 263 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 5: guys rather than trying to elevate the the plenty of 264 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 5: talent that the Jets already had. 265 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's going to be interesting. Also kind 266 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 3: of funny that like Devanta Adams has been out with 267 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 3: a hamstring injury, missed three games right around the time 268 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 3: he requested a trade, and now he's good to go. 269 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,319 Speaker 5: On Sunday, I tweeted that gift of that the woman's 270 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 5: soccer player. That's the woman's soccer player who scores the goal, 271 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 5: and she's like faking a hamstring or she's like she's 272 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 5: limping with a hamstring and then all of a sudden, 273 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,959 Speaker 5: she just starts dancing. Yeah, and I'm like, yeah, that's 274 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 5: Sdvantee to take a physical. 275 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 2: It's insane in New York. 276 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, like hilarious but cool for the Jets, But 277 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 3: like I just I. 278 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 5: Don't know that this is going to significantly up their 279 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 5: chances to end up being a Super Bowl contender. 280 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 4: I really don't know. 281 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 3: Absolutely not, especially since the Bills also got better that 282 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 3: same day. A little after the Davante news, the Bills 283 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 3: made headlines Amari Cooper to the Bills again after the 284 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 3: Monday night football win over the Jets. This is the 285 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 3: weapon that Josh Allen needs, a true number one wide 286 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 3: receiver who knows how to win. 287 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 2: Bills are first in the AFC East, but. 288 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 3: I think it just solidifies them as the favorite now 289 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 3: in the division, and Amari Cooper is a winner. He 290 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 3: is now with a top tier quarterback, major upgrade from 291 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 3: mister Badman that he was with on the Browns. Cooper 292 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 3: was not having a good season. He doesn't have over 293 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 3: one hundred yards in any individual game the season. So far, 294 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 3: six games in, he is two hundred and fifty receiving 295 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 3: yards and only two touchdowns, which is like very out 296 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 3: of character. 297 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 2: So I think this move will be great for both 298 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 2: a Marii Cooper and Josh Allen. 299 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 3: And Cooper's got to be jumping with joy now that 300 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 3: he's going to be catching balls from Josh Allen. 301 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 5: This is a move for already. I know it's only 302 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 5: week We're going to week seven. Yeah, this is a 303 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 5: move for the postseason. Yes, this is incredible, This. 304 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 4: Is all right. We're going to get him in now 305 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 4: because at this. 306 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 5: Point, Josh Allen, he's tied for fifth in touchdowns. 307 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 4: He's great, he is elevated. Talk about quarterbacks that elevate 308 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 4: the team. 309 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 2: Around them, also putting the team on your back. 310 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 5: Josh Allen has done that, and he has found ways 311 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 5: to still be productive even though you know, the passing wise, 312 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 5: I think he is like twentieth in passing yards, but 313 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 5: he is still making sure that this team is scoring. 314 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 5: He is making sure this team is winning as much 315 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 5: as one person possibly can. 316 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 317 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 5: And so where this really comes into play though, is 318 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 5: and when you get to the elite of the lead, 319 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 5: when you get to the post season, how the margin 320 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 5: for error gets that much smaller, So you need more weapons. 321 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 4: This is what I've said about the Dallas Cowboys forever. 322 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, who will not be making any moves by the 323 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 3: trade beside, Christ, what are you doing? 324 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 4: Fail? 325 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 5: This is legitimately to get Amur comfortable into their scheme. 326 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 4: I don't like none of the Bills. 327 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 5: Do not care about like Josh's passing yards or like 328 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 5: if they're still winning, if they're still scoring, that's all 329 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 5: that matters. And they've got a really great run game. 330 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 5: Even though James Cook wasn't even in the game this 331 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 5: last game against the Jets, Ray Davis steps in beautifully. 332 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 5: This is a team that is fully capable of having 333 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 5: a very balanced offense. So now it's when you get 334 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 5: into the playoffs, how do you elevate yourself above the 335 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 5: competition that is already so high. It is a Marii Cooper. 336 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 5: It is a guy that is a veteran, and I'm 337 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 5: happy for him in general because I think that he like. 338 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 4: Dallas, first of all, should have never gotten rid of him. 339 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 2: That was like the Bigs mistake. 340 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 5: And then for him to be stuck in the purgatory 341 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 5: that is Cleveland with mister man, I felt very badly 342 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 5: for him, and I'm so glad to see him moved. 343 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 5: There are some other guys that I would like to 344 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 5: see moved that I don't know if it's going to happen, 345 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 5: but at this point, it's nice to get out to 346 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 5: go to a contender. And now you know that Amari 347 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 5: Cooper is going to be juiced about that, you know 348 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 5: that Josh Allen is going to I mean, I think 349 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 5: it's still gonna be a process because they haven't played 350 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 5: together before, but you're going to see him start to 351 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 5: trust him more and more, and then you have all 352 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 5: of these other again balanced weapons to have this offense. 353 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 4: It's going to be really, really, really hard. 354 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 3: To beat, and I think it's a good kind of 355 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 3: ease yourself in game. 356 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 2: Who they got the Titans? I think this weekend. 357 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 4: No, yeah, this weekend. 358 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, they got the Titans. 359 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. 360 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 3: So it's going to be it's gonna be fun. I 361 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 3: think for both of them to veteran like top tier 362 00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 3: at their positions. Again, like I think the Bills are 363 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 3: an AFC East favorite. Now are they top in the AFC? 364 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 2: They is? 365 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 3: He has like the best quarterbacks in the league, all 366 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 3: in the same conference, Patrick Mahoon, that's in CJ. 367 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 2: Stroud. Obviously, the story. 368 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 3: Of the AFC what it is, so like, I don't 369 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 3: think that like moves them over anyone else, because it's 370 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 3: all gonna come down to can anybody get over. 371 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. Like that's just that's just 372 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 2: what it. 373 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 4: Is, man, Right now, Ravens, at this point, there are 374 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 4: no there's a lot. 375 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 2: More of j Stroud and the Texans also doing great. 376 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 5: Like I think the level of play is and this 377 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 5: has kind of been the case the last couple of years. 378 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 5: The level of talent in the AFC has been more 379 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 5: oh yeah, but the competition is more. 380 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 4: Wide open in the NFC, if that makes sense. 381 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 5: So like whereas the AFC talent just kind of all 382 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,160 Speaker 5: has to play, they have to play each other a 383 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 5: lot at the time. So especially like when you're talking 384 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 5: about the Bills in particular, and you look at the 385 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 5: AFC East, all right, Patriots, Yeah, Dolphins. Although to John 386 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 5: might be coming back. They're targeting week eight now for 387 00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 5: him to come back. 388 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 2: But did he get like fully clear, he's practicing. 389 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 4: I know, I know, I like you. It's his decision. 390 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,479 Speaker 4: We can we can think what we want about it. 391 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 2: We can think what we can. I don't know, I'm 392 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 2: to watch his first game back. 393 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 5: It's a decision, if you know, if he wants to 394 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 5: risk and take these risks, that is that is his 395 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 5: prerogative his life. Yes, that is his prerogative. But you 396 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 5: don't you still don't take Miami serious really as a 397 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 5: contender in the EC. So it's between the Jets and 398 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 5: the Bills, and the vibes are still bad in New York. 399 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 5: So all right, the Bills are going to come out 400 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 5: of that. But then yeah, like they're going to run 401 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 5: into the Ravens. You've got the Texans, You've got all 402 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 5: of the other division winners that especially come the playoffs. Yeah, yeah, 403 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 5: and then you have to get past the Chiefs in 404 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 5: the playoffs. Like, it doesn't matter what happens in the 405 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 5: regular season with the Chiefs, I am never going to 406 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 5: be worried about them, but it makes it a lot harder. 407 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 5: Although I do really think that with the way Josh 408 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,159 Speaker 5: Allen is playing right now, getting a veteran presence in 409 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,679 Speaker 5: Marii Cooper and the fact that his defense has been 410 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 5: able to make up for so many absences on that 411 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:02,360 Speaker 5: side of the ball, this is they are like a 412 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 5: very resilient team, and that also bodes well, oh yeah, 413 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 5: for long term and postseason success. 414 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, No, it's gonna It's gonna be a fun 415 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 3: battle in AFC. But I definitely think the Bills won 416 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 3: the whole trade Tuesday. Anyho, We're gonna take a quick 417 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 3: break here when we come back. MLB postseason is getting spicy. 418 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 2: We love to see it.

Number twelve Notre Dame in Georgia Tech. 532 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 7: This is another low scoring affair, just seven points apiece 533 00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 7: for either team. As a they've got six to nineteen 534 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 7: to go before halftime.

They're reaching 542 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 7: the end of the first quarter over in Knoxville, and 543 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,879 Speaker 7: games involving ranked teams up the rest of them have 544 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 7: gone final at least in the early window, although just 545 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 7: getting started, I should say Number fourteen Texas A and 546 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 7: Mississippi State scoreless. But the other games involving ranked teams 547 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 7: at least in the early part of the day have 548 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 7: gone final. Number six Miami and Louise This was a 549 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 7: back and forth affair cam Ward four touchdown passes. 550 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,880 Speaker 4: Miami hasn't played a normal game yeah this season. 551 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 7: This was an outstanding game, and Louisville came back to 552 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,679 Speaker 7: tie it. But give credit to the Hurricanes. They had 553 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,400 Speaker 7: a big fourth quarter able to pull away to win 554 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 7: at fifty two to forty five. Number ten Clemson, ah Man, 555 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 7: that loss early in the season really seems like a 556 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 7: long time ago as they beat Virginia forty eight to 557 00:24:58,680 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 7: thirty one. 558 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 4: Number sixteen Indiana. 559 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 7: Yeah, the Hoosier seemed to be for real seven and 560 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 7: oh and they really put the beating on the blast 561 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 7: of me. 562 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 5: Listen, I will I am now, it's just forgive me 563 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 5: for having my doubts. When Indiana has not been a 564 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 5: consequential football team in a very long time, they very 565 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 5: well could. 566 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 4: Be a playoff team. I know, I am original. Big 567 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 4: ten teams stand up, let's do it. Number nights.

That would be sick? 574 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 7: Ucla at long last gets a win in the Big Ten. 575 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 7: They were zero and four entering today against Rutgers, where 576 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 7: they do go on the road all the way across 577 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 7: the country to New Jersey to beat the Scarlet Nights 578 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:57,360 Speaker 7: thirty five to thirty two.

What has a vibe been like in 602 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 3: the locker room following that edition? 603 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,719 Speaker 9: You know, it's crazy to go into a season. This 604 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 9: team is four and two and they've got all these 605 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,640 Speaker 9: new offensive weapons and we're trying to figure it out 606 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 9: on offense. And Josh Allen just has one receiver on 607 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 9: this team that he threw to from last year, so 608 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 9: they're still working on that chemistry. And incomes a trade 609 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 9: with the Cleveland Browns to add five time Pro Bowl 610 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 9: wide receiver Amari Cooper. 611 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 6: The locker room is pumped about. 612 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 9: A trade like this. 613 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:33,360 Speaker 6: We spoke to wide. 614 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 9: Receivers Kean Coleman and Cole Shakir after this trade was 615 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 9: made and after Cooper was in the building, and those 616 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 9: guys were really excited to add another weapon into their room. 617 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 9: You may think players like that are like man maybe 618 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 9: he's going to take targets away from me. But both 619 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 9: of them were very excited about the fact that, Hey, 620 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,360 Speaker 9: this is a guy who can. 621 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 6: Help the group as a whole. 622 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,360 Speaker 9: He can help a rookie wide receiver like Skean Coleman, 623 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 9: and he can help others fevers kind of define their 624 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,360 Speaker 9: own roles. You add a receiver like Cooper to the Nix, 625 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 9: who can stretch the field, who's a really smooth route runner, 626 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 9: who's a contested catch receiver, and I feel like the 627 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 9: jobs of other receivers in that room get a little 628 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 9: bit easier because when you have Cooper on the field, 629 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 9: who's had seven seasons of at least one thousand receiving yards, 630 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 9: defenses have to account for him. 631 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's the biggest thing that I think is 632 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 5: so exciting. Given the fact that the Bills already have 633 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 5: a very really well rounded offense, you see that their 634 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 5: willingness to run the ball. I know that James Cook 635 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 5: miss this last game against the Jets, but Ray Davis 636 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 5: just steps right in has twenty rushing yards for twenty 637 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 5: rushes for ninety seven yards. Do you see that kind 638 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 5: of tipping the scales with Amari Cooper now joining the party. 639 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 5: Do you think that they're going to maybe those splits 640 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 5: are going to be a little bit less even, or 641 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 5: do you think that this is really just about adding 642 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 5: one more piece that is going to keep defenses on 643 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 5: their heels. 644 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 6: I really think it's. 645 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 9: About adding one more piece that's going to keep defenses 646 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 9: on their heels. The run versus passing offense has been 647 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 9: something that we've been talking about all season. How many 648 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 9: times are they rushing? How many times are they throwing 649 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 9: the ball? And in the first two weeks to start 650 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 9: the season, first three weeks, really it was more run 651 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 9: heavy than pass heavy. 652 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 8: Then in the. 653 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 9: Last two it's been a little bit more even, and 654 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 9: then last week I should say it was more run 655 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 9: heavy again. So it seems like this offense has been 656 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 9: a little bit more run heavy than usual. And I'm 657 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 9: not saying the splits. 658 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 6: Are like, Wow, it's been crazy run. 659 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 9: Heavy because you have a quarterback like Josh Allen on 660 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 9: your team, and it's never going to be crazy run 661 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 9: heavy unless you're playing against a defense who just can't 662 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 9: stop the run and you just lean into that. But 663 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 9: I feel like this is just Amari Cooper is just 664 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 9: another piece to this puzzle that is going to keep 665 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 9: defenses on their heels because I don't know why they 666 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 9: would want to take the ball out of moneybacks like 667 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 9: James Cook or Ray Davis who have shown, hey, this 668 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 9: is what I can do when I'm on the field, 669 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 9: and the. 670 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 6: Bills have enjoyed using those two. 671 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:14,640 Speaker 9: And we are leading the NFL and using six offensive 672 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 9: linemens formations. 673 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 6: So this is a team. 674 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 9: Who is definitely leaning into being able to run the 675 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 9: ball as well, because that opens things up for Josh 676 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 9: Allen and it opens things up for the rest. 677 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 8: Of the offense. 678 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 3: Now, Amari Cooper comes in and instantly becomes wide receiver 679 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,600 Speaker 3: number one for Josh Allen. So how is their relationship. 680 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 3: How have you seen it kind of develop and start 681 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 3: to grow just this week? 682 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's interesting because we played on Monday night last week, 683 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 9: so this team is on a short week to begin with, 684 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 9: and then you throw a new player into the mix 685 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 9: who arrives midweek, and it's all about trying to get 686 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 9: a new player, regardless of where you're playing, up to speed. 687 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 6: As soon as you can. 688 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 9: We heard from our general manager Brandon Bean about to 689 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 9: trade and he was asked, you know, is this that's 690 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 9: one of the harder positions to try to pick up 691 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 9: mid season, and he said, yeah, this is probably one 692 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 9: of the hardest because won the playbook and to the chemistry. 693 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 9: It's not like you can just throw a defender like 694 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 9: somebody like a defender into the mix and just say, hey, 695 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 9: play defense, you know, find the ball and try and 696 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 9: get takeaways. It's no, this is how we run our offense. 697 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 9: This is where the open zones are going to be. 698 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 9: This is how a quarterback like Josh Allen likes to 699 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 9: operate when the play breaks down. So there's a lot 700 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 9: of fuel regardless of what offense here, and there's just 701 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 9: a lot of feel to operating with a new quarterback. 702 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 9: And I think a lot of our new receivers this 703 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 9: year are still learning a lot of that as well. 704 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 9: So it's been about a. 705 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 6: Couple of days and it's like, hey, we're going to get. 706 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 9: You out of practice, We're going to have you rolled 707 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 9: into as much as possible. But Sean mczhermott said, hey, 708 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 9: I'd like to have him in Sunday's game. I don't 709 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 9: know what it's going to be because we need to 710 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 9: make sure that he feels comfortable and we need to 711 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 9: make sure that it makes sense with what we want 712 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 9: to do, because it's not like you can dress to 713 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 9: everybody on game days. 714 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 5: Sure, speaking of Sean McDermott, I think the biggest surprise 715 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 5: to me at least this year has been the fact 716 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 5: that even with the injuries to all across the defense 717 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 5: and then Matt Malano was just kind of like the dagger. 718 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 5: You know, as the season is about to start, but 719 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 5: this defense is only giving up twenty one points a game. 720 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 5: Sean McDermott has done a phenomenal job with kind of 721 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 5: hiding the holes that exist or the deficiencies that have existed. 722 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 5: What have you seen from him in the way that 723 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 5: he's kind of adjusted and made some changes in order 724 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 5: to kind of keep this as a viable defense at 725 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 5: least that can limit scoring productions so that Josh Allen 726 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 5: and co. 727 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 4: Can can do some work. 728 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 9: Yeah, there are a top ten defense right now in 729 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 9: takeaways with ten and this has happened the last few years. Karmon, 730 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 9: It's like every single year this happens where we have 731 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 9: guys who get hurt, which we hate. These backups come 732 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 9: in and the play doesn't drop off, and every year 733 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 9: we're like how the. 734 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 6: Heck is this possible? This is incredible. 735 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 9: These sixth round picks, these undrafted guys, these seventh rounders, 736 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 9: are playing with their. 737 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 6: Hair on fire. What does he do? What does he 738 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 6: see him? 739 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 9: What are they drinking? Can I have something? It's just 740 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 9: so awesome to see. And I did an in depth 741 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 9: feature story about how this has been possible. And it's 742 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 9: also not like they have Sean McDermott calling the plays 743 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 9: against this year. They have a new defensive coordinator and 744 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 9: Bobby Babbitch who has been a part of the defensive 745 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 9: staff since Sean McDermott came onto the scene in Buffalo. 746 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 9: But still you got a new guy calling the plays, 747 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 9: same defense, similar wrinkles to it. 748 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 6: But what it really is is the. 749 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 9: Fact that this defense does not really change who they 750 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 9: are week to week. Of course, you're going to add 751 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 9: a couple things in here or there, depending on the 752 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 9: team that you're playing, But this defense is a true 753 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 9: nickel defense. They're going to opt that way unless they 754 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 9: really have to play in that base for three defense, 755 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 9: which they rarely go into. This is a nickel defense 756 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 9: and a defense that likes to play and dine, and 757 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 9: they just like to keep it simple, and I think 758 00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 9: keeping it simple and that way allows guys to really 759 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,319 Speaker 9: understand what they're doing, and then when it's time for 760 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,120 Speaker 9: game time, you see them make plays. We have a 761 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 9: lot of backups who have been in the system for 762 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 9: three to five years, so when it is time for 763 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 9: them to step up and be a starter, maybe because 764 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 9: of an injury, you don't see the play drop off 765 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 9: because they've been repping this defense. They've been playing in 766 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 9: practices for you know, three plus years. So I think 767 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 9: that's another reason why you see this defense, you know, 768 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 9: having success every single year. When you have guys in 769 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 9: and out. 770 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 3: Of lineup, they've been fun to watch.

Now, okay, both 994 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:44,880 Speaker 3: these sides now have they have good motivation? 995 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 6: Right? 996 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:49,040 Speaker 3: Forty nine Ers Kyle Shanahan has never beaten Andy Reid's Chiefs. 997 00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 2: He's zero to four. Obviously lost in the Super Bowl. 998 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 3: The Chiefs have like always been that one team that 999 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 3: gets in their way, you know. 1000 00:44:57,800 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 2: But it is interesting because we've. 1001 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,359 Speaker 3: Been hearing from a lot of the forty nine ers 1002 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 3: players this week and kind of got two different perspectives. 1003 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 2: We'll start with Fred Warner. 1004 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,799 Speaker 11: I think it's important. This is an important game for 1005 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,240 Speaker 11: us one because of where we're out of the season. 1006 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 8: You know, we we haven't had the start that we 1007 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:19,880 Speaker 8: would have wanted, but we're you know, we got that 1008 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 8: win on Thursday night and put ourselves in a position 1009 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 8: to do everything we want to do going forward, and 1010 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 8: we got to prove to ourselves that we can win, 1011 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 8: you know, against great football teams in this league. 1012 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:32,799 Speaker 11: I mean, not my favorite. The Chiefs are are undefeated 1013 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:34,759 Speaker 11: this year and still at the top of their game, 1014 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,440 Speaker 11: and like you mentioned, they still got fifteen back there 1015 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 11: and we haven't. I have yet to beat them, you know. 1016 00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 11: I think I've played against them maybe four times now. 1017 00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 10: I have yet to beat them. 1018 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 11: So I think it's important. It's an important game for 1019 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 11: us to try to get over that home and get 1020 00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 11: this win. 1021 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 3: It's interesting because there's been like a lot of players, 1022 00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:55,399 Speaker 3: even like George Kittle on Deebo Samuel's podcast this week 1023 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 3: all talking about like, yeah, no, like I haven't like 1024 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 3: actually beat them like my rookie year I wasn't played, 1025 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 3: but like they kind of beat them. And then you 1026 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 3: had Trent Williams coming out this week and saying, it's 1027 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 3: just another game. It's not like we can get payback 1028 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,399 Speaker 3: for losing the Super Bowl. I'm like, don't don't play 1029 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:12,239 Speaker 3: this like it's still like they have your number. And 1030 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,360 Speaker 3: this has kind of been the forty nine ers final 1031 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 3: check off the quote great list. 1032 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 5: I think I'm I'm with Trent Williams. So this is 1033 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,799 Speaker 5: a regular season game. This is not even if they 1034 00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 5: win this game, it's not payback for losing the Super 1035 00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 5: Bowl multiple times to this team. 1036 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 3: So but there should be like you should take it, 1037 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,239 Speaker 3: like you should take it personally. There needs to be 1038 00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 3: like a different outlet, like you need to want to 1039 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:38,560 Speaker 3: go out like absolutely demolishness. 1040 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 5: Trent Williams, given how long he's been in this league, 1041 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:43,399 Speaker 5: he is of the mind of those old school vets 1042 00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 5: where you don't share that publicly, Okay, Like each of 1043 00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,440 Speaker 5: these teams have bulletin boards, yeah, like ready to go 1044 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:54,080 Speaker 5: manufacturing motivation. You do not need to manufacture motivation for 1045 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 5: something like this, Like these two teams do have a 1046 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 5: legitimate rivalry now given the fact that or at least 1047 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:00,919 Speaker 5: San Francisco, you know, kind of feels like the little 1048 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 5: brother here because they can't get past yeah, the Chiefs 1049 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:07,240 Speaker 5: when it matters. What I think is really really interesting though, 1050 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 5: is going to come down to how Steve Spagnolo, the 1051 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:14,919 Speaker 5: Chiefs defensive coordinator. Yeah, he seems to have Kyle Shanahan's number, 1052 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,840 Speaker 5: Yes he does. And the Chiefs rank ninth and EPA 1053 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:19,439 Speaker 5: per play allowed versus the run. 1054 00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 4: And what does Kyle Shanahan like to do. He likes 1055 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 4: to run the ball. 1056 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,800 Speaker 5: They run two back sets at the highest clip in 1057 00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 5: the league, and they have that's just the calling card 1058 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,800 Speaker 5: at Kyle Shanahan's offense is like those two running backs. 1059 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:36,920 Speaker 5: And to the Chiefs, Spags has never let up more 1060 00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,080 Speaker 5: than twenty three points. 1061 00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 2: It's just also another thing to the nine or to 1062 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:41,840 Speaker 2: the Niners. The Niners. 1063 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, let's look at the chief side to here 1064 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,359 Speaker 3: coming in right. Yes, they're beat up, but they're still 1065 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:50,719 Speaker 3: undefeated and they're coming off of a bye week. Yes, 1066 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:54,160 Speaker 3: Travis Kelsey isn't having a great season. Zero touchdowns through 1067 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 3: his first five games, lowest in his career, but he 1068 00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 3: still adds a lot of value I think on the 1069 00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:02,480 Speaker 3: field and in the locker room. Yes, they're dealing with injuries, 1070 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 3: but you have the best quarterback coach Combo and Andy 1071 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 3: Reid's record off of a bye you guys, twenty one 1072 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:13,320 Speaker 3: to four following a bye week. That is the best 1073 00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:17,240 Speaker 3: in NFL history. US they know they're not the favorite, 1074 00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 3: which is going to be added motivation for Patrick Mahomes. 1075 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:24,040 Speaker 3: We've seen how he reacts when he has that kind 1076 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:25,360 Speaker 3: of bulletin board material. 1077 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:30,200 Speaker 5: I just, yeah, I refuse to be worried about the 1078 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:32,480 Speaker 5: Chiefs because we saw this last year during the regular season, 1079 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:35,719 Speaker 5: Travis Kelsey only had five touchdowns. It did come they 1080 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 5: most of them came earlier in the season. But I mean, 1081 00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:42,319 Speaker 5: he's older, he is older. He has kind of dropped off, 1082 00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:44,719 Speaker 5: which is which makes sense. But you still have to 1083 00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 5: respect him and you still have to account for him 1084 00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 5: when he's on the field, and that is his greatest 1085 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:51,080 Speaker 5: asset right now as a member of this Chiefs team, 1086 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:53,920 Speaker 5: I am very interested to see, you know, kind of 1087 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 5: how they account for the loss of sheet Rice. But yeah, 1088 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 5: you know, and how they keep doing that. But at 1089 00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:01,399 Speaker 5: the same time, who did they have last year? 1090 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:02,160 Speaker 4: No one? 1091 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, And this was that was supposed to be a 1092 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:05,640 Speaker 5: down year for the Chiefs and they went out and 1093 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 5: they won the Super Bowl anyway, because Andy Reid is 1094 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:11,799 Speaker 5: one of the most innovative, creative offensive play callers, and 1095 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 5: when you have a guy like Patrick Mahomes that is 1096 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,440 Speaker 5: fully capable of doing it all when it comes to 1097 00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 5: being a quarterback, whether that's scrambling around in the backfield, 1098 00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:21,960 Speaker 5: whether that's a side arm kind of weird angle throws, 1099 00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:25,480 Speaker 5: whether that's we're tucking and running it himself. There are 1100 00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:28,399 Speaker 5: so many things that Patrick Mahomes is capable of doing, 1101 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,880 Speaker 5: and coupled with Andy Reid being as creative as he is, 1102 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,000 Speaker 5: I'm never going to count these guys out. And again, 1103 00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:37,000 Speaker 5: I really do think that this like the Niners being 1104 00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 5: favorited when you have a one and a half point 1105 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:42,400 Speaker 5: favorite that's basically just given home field advantage, like that 1106 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:44,160 Speaker 5: is that is home field advantage, Like I just I 1107 00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:46,040 Speaker 5: don't I don't put any credence into that. 1108 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:48,799 Speaker 2: I just I still think it's you know. 1109 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:53,960 Speaker 5: They are they have their perfect record to uh to 1110 00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:56,480 Speaker 5: preserve in Kansas City, and I like, that's all the 1111 00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 5: motivation that they need. 1112 00:49:58,400 --> 00:49:59,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, all of that. 1113 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:01,800 Speaker 3: Also, someone who will be calling that game, Tom Brady, 1114 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:05,720 Speaker 3: who has officially become a minority owner of the Raiders, 1115 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 3: also announced on Tuesday along with all of that news. 1116 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:12,239 Speaker 3: So congrats, congrats to Tom, even with all the new 1117 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:14,880 Speaker 3: limitations that come with it. For any normal human that 1118 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 3: would probably be impossible. But we're talking about the goat here, 1119 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,040 Speaker 3: So if anyone can figure out how it's going to 1120 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,880 Speaker 3: go down and make it work, Tom, just tell us 1121 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 3: what you see while you're watching it go down. 1122 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,960 Speaker 5: I want to clarify what the concerns are here because 1123 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 5: I feel like I've seen a lot of people online 1124 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:30,840 Speaker 5: being like, how much work does it take to be 1125 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,799 Speaker 5: a minority owner? He only owns like five percent of 1126 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:36,000 Speaker 5: the team. It's not about the work that he has 1127 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:38,200 Speaker 5: to do as an owner. It is about the limitations 1128 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:41,920 Speaker 5: that the league has now enforced on him. He cannot 1129 00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:44,600 Speaker 5: criticize officials, he cannot criticize other teams. He cannot be 1130 00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:47,240 Speaker 5: in other teams facilities, he cannot go to other teams practices, 1131 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 5: he cannot be in the. 1132 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 2: Production, production meetings, or virtually rtually. 1133 00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, that all is what I just described is like 1134 00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 5: two thirds of what it takes to do. 1135 00:50:58,400 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. 1136 00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 3: Like, with all these limiteds, for anyone else, you'd be like, 1137 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:02,160 Speaker 3: how are you going to do your job? 1138 00:51:02,480 --> 00:51:04,120 Speaker 2: I don't understand how you're going to do your job. 1139 00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:07,680 Speaker 5: That is the concern is that he now has these 1140 00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:12,360 Speaker 5: limitations imposed by the league that hinders what it usually 1141 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:13,400 Speaker 5: takes to be a broadcast. 1142 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 2: So three things. 1143 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:17,240 Speaker 3: You cannot be in the other team's facility. You cannot 1144 00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:21,240 Speaker 3: witness practice, you cannot attend broadcast production meetings in person 1145 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:21,840 Speaker 3: or virtually. 1146 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:23,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, and you're crazy no. 1147 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:27,080 Speaker 5: And then like even doing the game, you can't criticize 1148 00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 5: officials or another team. 1149 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:31,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, how are you supposed to be? You don't know. 1150 00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:33,240 Speaker 2: But if anyone can do it, it's Tom Brady. 1151 00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 3: So we're going to figure it out. And this should 1152 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 3: be a fun one to watch tomorrow. But another game 1153 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 3: to keep your eye on, Jets at Steelers, because it 1154 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:49,560 Speaker 3: sounded like Russell Wilson will be the Steelers QB one 1155 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 3: this Sunday. Russ has been taking first team reps. Mike 1156 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 3: Towan on Friday said that they have picked their starter, 1157 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 3: but they're keeping it in house. However, George Pickens let it. 1158 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 3: On Friday, he was asked if he was putting in 1159 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:07,040 Speaker 3: extra work with Russ at practice more than usual because 1160 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:08,840 Speaker 3: it was his first start, and. 1161 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:11,799 Speaker 5: No, George Pickens brought up the first start, but yeah, 1162 00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:13,200 Speaker 5: He's like, yeah, I've been putting in more work with 1163 00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:14,759 Speaker 5: Russell Wilson because it's his first start. 1164 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 4: And everyone went in the locker room. 1165 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:18,160 Speaker 5: Was like, oh wait what, okay, yeah, so that I 1166 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 5: mean it was the worst cappy. 1167 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it was the worst cabin in the NFL 1168 00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:22,000 Speaker 4: right now. 1169 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 3: But there's also been reports by Albert Breer that the 1170 00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:28,360 Speaker 3: locker room kind of wants to stay with Justin Fields 1171 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 3: and doesn't want Russ to start, which honestly isn't surprising 1172 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:34,880 Speaker 3: because both these quarterbacks locker room reputation coming into this 1173 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,880 Speaker 3: team kind of like played out here in Pittsburgh, and honestly, 1174 00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:40,799 Speaker 3: Justin Fields has been getting the job done. You know, 1175 00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:42,800 Speaker 3: my stants on this, Carmen and I have very opposite 1176 00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:46,320 Speaker 3: stances on this. This has been the best start record 1177 00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:48,319 Speaker 3: wise to his career he's ever had. Steelers are four 1178 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 3: and two. Personally, his stats are the best that he's 1179 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 3: had to start. Everyone loves him. They've been playing well 1180 00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:55,640 Speaker 3: in winning. They're tied at the top of their division 1181 00:52:56,080 --> 00:53:01,640 Speaker 3: with the Ravens, which is amazing. And Naji Harris was 1182 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:06,440 Speaker 3: asked what the offense gains with Russ on the field, 1183 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:11,919 Speaker 3: and he said, it's about all eleven, not just one individual. 1184 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:15,600 Speaker 12: So Bres being out there. I mean, he gots to 1185 00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:17,440 Speaker 12: do the same thing that Justin's doing. Justine doing a 1186 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:19,279 Speaker 12: great job for his It's the best start of that 1187 00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 12: I think I had from my us or arfo. You know, 1188 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:23,719 Speaker 12: I saw some pommas that just said Justin said about 1189 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:25,880 Speaker 12: him the opinion doing the best. 1190 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:26,840 Speaker 2: Step in the camp, you know. 1191 00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:28,880 Speaker 12: But you know, I think that he did the best 1192 00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 12: he possibly can. I think I think he did a 1193 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:31,080 Speaker 12: really good job. 1194 00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:31,440 Speaker 1: And he shouldn't. 1195 00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,279 Speaker 12: Finally he found it. But you know, just me saying 1196 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:35,600 Speaker 12: publicly that we're all probably in them, and you know, 1197 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:36,920 Speaker 12: I mean, don't be so hard on himself. 1198 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:38,920 Speaker 4: You gotta show back. 1199 00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:41,280 Speaker 2: I gotta showed back personally. 1200 00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:43,319 Speaker 3: I think if it ain't broke, don't fix it, because 1201 00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 3: do we really think Russ is going to be that 1202 00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 3: much better than Justin fields out there? 1203 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:50,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, well you have to figure it out and honestly, 1204 00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 5: what I heard from the Breer Report wasn't that they 1205 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:55,799 Speaker 5: don't want Russ to start. It was just that they 1206 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 5: there is still support for Justin Fields, which has been 1207 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:00,880 Speaker 5: the case throughout his career. I mean in Chicago, he 1208 00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:02,800 Speaker 5: was very well loved in the locker room. He was 1209 00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:05,200 Speaker 5: a great guy. He's a great teammate, and that was 1210 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:07,520 Speaker 5: evidenced by what Justin Fields said to the media where 1211 00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,360 Speaker 5: he said, I didn't do enough and I'm. 1212 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:11,879 Speaker 4: In this business. He's right. 1213 00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:15,799 Speaker 5: Unfortunately, he did not do enough to win that job 1214 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:17,080 Speaker 5: to leave no doubt. 1215 00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:18,520 Speaker 4: And that's what it's about. 1216 00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:21,840 Speaker 5: When you do have a veteran, a pro bowler, a 1217 00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:24,320 Speaker 5: guy who's won a Super Bowl before that is waiting 1218 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:26,560 Speaker 5: in the wings behind you, that was in line to 1219 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,120 Speaker 5: start before he got hurt. And that's what this is 1220 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:32,120 Speaker 5: kind of about, is the Steelers need to see what 1221 00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 5: they have in Russell Wilson. I don't know that I 1222 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:37,719 Speaker 5: necessarily agree with making the change, but I understand why 1223 00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:40,680 Speaker 5: they're doing it, and I understand the fact that no 1224 00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 5: Fields himself. I get that the Steelers are off to 1225 00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 5: a good start, but none of these games have come 1226 00:54:46,080 --> 00:54:48,640 Speaker 5: because of Justin Fields. None of these wins have come 1227 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,719 Speaker 5: because of Justin Fields. If we are going to talk 1228 00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 5: about his running ability, this is my biggest thing with 1229 00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:56,440 Speaker 5: Justin If we are going to talk about his running ability, 1230 00:54:56,480 --> 00:54:59,000 Speaker 5: which you have to, if you're going to talk about 1231 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:02,440 Speaker 5: him being a serviceable quarterback, then you have to take 1232 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:05,479 Speaker 5: into account how many times he's fumbled the ball, which 1233 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:07,879 Speaker 5: has been a lot this season already. That has been 1234 00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 5: an issue for him is holding on to the ball. 1235 00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 5: And if you look at the losses that the Steelers 1236 00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:15,360 Speaker 5: have had, it is mistakes like that that have attributed 1237 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:18,080 Speaker 5: that have contributed to it. He is not doing enough 1238 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,480 Speaker 5: in the passing game for you to just rest on 1239 00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 5: those laurels alone. I mean, he has five touchdowns and 1240 00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:26,360 Speaker 5: he has eleven hundred yards. 1241 00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:28,320 Speaker 4: His completion rate is sixty six percent. 1242 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:33,920 Speaker 5: That is fine, it's fine, but it's not anything overwhelming 1243 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 5: that is going to keep you in this starting role. 1244 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:37,960 Speaker 5: When again, you have a veteran and you have a 1245 00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,799 Speaker 5: guy that this team has not seen yet and you're 1246 00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 5: a You're going to have to see if Russ can 1247 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:45,719 Speaker 5: what he can't do on the ground anymore because he 1248 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:47,560 Speaker 5: is older. Is he going to be able to make 1249 00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 5: up for that in the passing game. Judging by the 1250 00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 5: last two years, that answer is doesn't look good because 1251 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:56,440 Speaker 5: Russ hasn't been effective for multiple years. We're going to 1252 00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:58,640 Speaker 5: have to see the Russell Wilson from three years ago. 1253 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:02,799 Speaker 5: But the fact that the Steelers even still have a 1254 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,160 Speaker 5: question makes Justin Fields right. 1255 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:08,399 Speaker 4: He did not do enough, and that is. 1256 00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:11,520 Speaker 5: Not precluding Justin Fields from being the starter again in Pittsburgh. 1257 00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:13,880 Speaker 4: But now the fact that you're going. 1258 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 5: To see what Russell Wilson is going to do means 1259 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,760 Speaker 5: that this is still not over. This is still not decided. 1260 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:22,719 Speaker 5: Nothing is decided. And again I go back to the 1261 00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:26,160 Speaker 5: mantra that Bruce arians would hammer into his team. 1262 00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:26,920 Speaker 4: When I was with the Bucks. 1263 00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:29,759 Speaker 5: You have two quarterbacks, you have none, And that is 1264 00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:32,640 Speaker 5: exactly what is happening in Pittsburgh. They are winning because 1265 00:56:32,680 --> 00:56:34,960 Speaker 5: of their defense. That has been the case the last 1266 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 5: few years, quite a few years. They haven't had quarterbackstability 1267 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:43,040 Speaker 5: since been Roethlisberger. Yeah, and they've had winning records since 1268 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:45,799 Speaker 5: then because my Tomlin does not have losing seasons. It 1269 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:47,640 Speaker 5: is because of the defense. That's why wins are not 1270 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:50,000 Speaker 5: a quarterback stat I could go on and on about this. Yes, 1271 00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:52,400 Speaker 5: you can, but Justin Fields is right, he did not 1272 00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:54,399 Speaker 5: do enough. We will now see what Russell Wilson can do. 1273 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 2: And how quickly will they put Fields back in when 1274 00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:58,319 Speaker 2: it does not go well with Russ. 1275 00:56:58,320 --> 00:56:59,600 Speaker 3: So that's what I'm going to be watching out for. 1276 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:01,680 Speaker 3: We're take a quick break here, but when we come back. 1277 00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,919 Speaker 3: Is the NFC North the best division in the league. Yes, 1278 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:08,719 Speaker 3: you're listening to Fox Sports Radio. Hey, welcome back to 1279 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 3: Fox Football Saturday.

The polls sided with 1327 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 5: Greg Aman and I stood firm though. I said to 1328 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:13,040 Speaker 5: this in the ANFC North, I think there's going to 1329 00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:14,960 Speaker 5: be it's gonna be really tough to win this division, 1330 00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:16,640 Speaker 5: and the fourth place team is going. 1331 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:18,200 Speaker 4: To be an eight nine, ten win team and so 1332 00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 4: far crazy. It's true. 1333 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 5: I thought it was going to be. I'm not going 1334 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 5: to take full full credit because like I didn't. I 1335 00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:25,120 Speaker 5: thought it was still going to be the Vikings that 1336 00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:26,400 Speaker 5: we're going to be at the at the end of 1337 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:29,600 Speaker 5: this division, whereas now I think they're contending for the title. 1338 00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:34,520 Speaker 3: Which is going to be incredible because we have Vikings 1339 00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:36,720 Speaker 3: and Lions this weekend. 1340 00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:39,720 Speaker 5: I amorrow excited. I can't believe this game is at 1341 00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:43,320 Speaker 5: one pm tomorrow. I'm like, I want full attention on it. 1342 00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna be able to do that because I'm 1343 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:46,200 Speaker 5: going to have to have it as part of the 1344 00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 5: quad box instead. 1345 00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:48,840 Speaker 4: Of the only game. But it's fine. 1346 00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 5: It's incredible when you look at the way that these 1347 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:55,680 Speaker 5: teams are now structured. They are top four teams in 1348 00:59:55,760 --> 01:00:00,440 Speaker 5: point differential, It goes Lion, it goes Vikings, Lions, Bears 1349 01:00:00,480 --> 01:00:03,200 Speaker 5: in point differential. That is so much better than the 1350 01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:07,320 Speaker 5: rest of the league. The four losses they've taken outside 1351 01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:10,240 Speaker 5: the division have all been by six points or fewer. 1352 01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:14,320 Speaker 5: The biggest thing about this though, and the caveat that 1353 01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:18,080 Speaker 5: I have. Again, I believe in this division. I know 1354 01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:22,440 Speaker 5: you do, but there is a there is a caveat 1355 01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:26,040 Speaker 5: to this, and it is that up until tomorrow, there 1356 01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 5: has these guys haven't played each other. Yeah, I mean 1357 01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 5: there's been one or two games. I can't remember if 1358 01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:33,840 Speaker 5: there's been one or two where like the like the 1359 01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:36,240 Speaker 5: Vikings and the Packers played each other already, But this 1360 01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:40,960 Speaker 5: these teams are so backloaded with their division schedule, Like 1361 01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:42,000 Speaker 5: the Bears do not have a. 1362 01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:44,040 Speaker 4: Division game until Week eleven when they play the Packers 1363 01:00:44,080 --> 01:00:44,760 Speaker 4: at Soldier Field. 1364 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:48,960 Speaker 5: So that is why I think you're seeing this division 1365 01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:53,439 Speaker 5: skyrocket is because they're not cannibalizing each other yet, and 1366 01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:56,120 Speaker 5: that is going to happen in a last I think 1367 01:00:56,160 --> 01:00:58,960 Speaker 5: like once that week eleven Slate hits yeah, and the 1368 01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:01,160 Speaker 5: Bears and Packers play each I think after that there 1369 01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 5: is at least one game where each team plays like 1370 01:01:04,520 --> 01:01:07,880 Speaker 5: there's one NFC North matchup from that from then on. 1371 01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:10,320 Speaker 5: But you're talking like the last six seven weeks of 1372 01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:13,120 Speaker 5: the season at this point, so they are going to 1373 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:16,400 Speaker 5: have the opportunity all four of these teams to really. 1374 01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:21,080 Speaker 4: Stack some wins. And this was always going. 1375 01:01:20,960 --> 01:01:22,640 Speaker 5: To be the sweet spot for the Chicago Bears to 1376 01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:26,240 Speaker 5: start figuring things out. But what's really happened is this 1377 01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:30,960 Speaker 5: Vikings team, with the defense they have. I was fully 1378 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:33,040 Speaker 5: on board with Sam Donald. I've been on board with 1379 01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 5: Sam Donald, but I knew that he wasn't going to 1380 01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 5: have to do a lot with the talent that exists 1381 01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:41,080 Speaker 5: on this team for the Vikings to do well this year. 1382 01:01:41,640 --> 01:01:44,840 Speaker 5: I did not anticipate him not only keeping the team 1383 01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:46,400 Speaker 5: afloat but thriving. 1384 01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:48,720 Speaker 4: And then you have the Lions. 1385 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:51,440 Speaker 5: Who are suffering injuries kind of left and right, with 1386 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:53,800 Speaker 5: a Hutchinson going down. But I trust Aaron Glenn, their 1387 01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:55,720 Speaker 5: defensive coordinator to figure it out. I think he's going 1388 01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:58,640 Speaker 5: to end up doing something drastically different tomorrow. Keep a 1389 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,240 Speaker 5: really close eye on Brian Brant. He is healthy. I 1390 01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:03,520 Speaker 5: think he's going to be a factor all over the field, 1391 01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 5: including in the pass rush. 1392 01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:05,680 Speaker 4: That's just my inkling. 1393 01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:09,280 Speaker 5: But you've got the Packers too, and Jordan Love is 1394 01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:12,000 Speaker 5: trusting his knee now. He seems to be back to 1395 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 5: almost one hundred percent. They've got a plethora of receiving 1396 01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:17,520 Speaker 5: options for him to throw to. That is what makes 1397 01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:20,200 Speaker 5: them so dangerous. That defense is taking the ball away 1398 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:21,880 Speaker 5: though they're not getting the pass rush that I think 1399 01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,439 Speaker 5: that Green Bay fans would like them to. There are 1400 01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:26,760 Speaker 5: so many good things about all of these teams, and 1401 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:30,160 Speaker 5: I realize that the Bears have not really played anyone. 1402 01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:32,160 Speaker 5: That's another kind of caveat in all of this. 1403 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:35,760 Speaker 2: But we're finally seeing Caleb look and feel comfortable. 1404 01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:37,920 Speaker 5: I am old enough, Alex to remember when the Bears 1405 01:02:37,920 --> 01:02:39,760 Speaker 5: did not do what they were supposed to do against 1406 01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:41,920 Speaker 5: bad teams. So I am not taking any of this 1407 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:44,560 Speaker 5: for granted. And the fact that you have seen steady 1408 01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:47,920 Speaker 5: improvement from Caleb Williams, he has broken. 1409 01:02:47,640 --> 01:02:49,120 Speaker 4: Rookie record after rookie record. 1410 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:52,160 Speaker 5: My boldest prediction that I've had, which I did before 1411 01:02:52,240 --> 01:02:54,479 Speaker 5: last week's game, was that he was going to match 1412 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,920 Speaker 5: the Bear's rookie touchdown total by Halloween, even with the 1413 01:02:57,920 --> 01:02:58,360 Speaker 5: bye week. 1414 01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:01,800 Speaker 2: Okay, and he's too. 1415 01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 5: Who so against the Commanders. The Bears aren't a bye 1416 01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:07,080 Speaker 5: this week. Against the Commanders next week when he's going, 1417 01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:08,840 Speaker 5: you know him in the number one and number two 1418 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:09,520 Speaker 5: overall pickxer. 1419 01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:10,680 Speaker 2: That's gonna be good at duel. 1420 01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,080 Speaker 4: All Caleb Williams needs is two touchdowns to match the 1421 01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,320 Speaker 4: Bears rookie record, three to break it. 1422 01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:20,800 Speaker 2: Dang, Yeah, so I'm there. 1423 01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:22,760 Speaker 4: It's so much fun. In the North is the Black 1424 01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:23,520 Speaker 4: and Boar Division. 1425 01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 11: No. 1426 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,440 Speaker 5: I saw a graphic and it was like the NFC 1427 01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:29,040 Speaker 5: North and it had all four quarterbacks up there. Do 1428 01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:30,880 Speaker 5: you realize the last time the Bears have had a 1429 01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:32,760 Speaker 5: quarterback on a graphic before? 1430 01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:35,600 Speaker 3: Deep breath, Deep breath. I'm happy for you. Now I'll 1431 01:03:35,640 --> 01:03:37,480 Speaker 3: check you with Kevin Wyre and see what's trending. 1432 01:03:39,160 --> 01:03:42,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's an eventful day in college football. They're approaching 1433 01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:46,360 Speaker 7: halftime down in Knoxville and Alabama trying to add to 1434 01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:49,840 Speaker 7: their seven nothing lead against Tennessee. However, the passa just 1435 01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:53,080 Speaker 7: went incomplete, so it'll be fourth and ten with the 1436 01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:56,520 Speaker 7: Crimson Tide inside Tennessee territory that I think they're around 1437 01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 7: the forty yard line or so. As Alabama calling it time, 1438 01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,200 Speaker 7: I'm out of seeing exactly what they want to do 1439 01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:05,240 Speaker 7: here right on the cusp of field goal territory. Maybe 1440 01:04:05,320 --> 01:04:07,200 Speaker 7: one upon it, maybe you want to go for it 1441 01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:09,880 Speaker 7: to they had. I see their kicker warming up over 1442 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,160 Speaker 7: there on the sideline, so we'll see exactly what they 1443 01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:14,600 Speaker 7: choose to do. But either way, it is the Crimson 1444 01:04:14,640 --> 01:04:17,960 Speaker 7: Tide in front, seven to nothing with forty seconds to 1445 01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:22,920 Speaker 7: go before halftime. Elsewhere in at college football, they're in 1446 01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:25,600 Speaker 7: the second half down in Atlanta, number twelve Notre Dame 1447 01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:27,880 Speaker 7: starting to pull away from Georgia Tech as the Irish 1448 01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:31,560 Speaker 7: leading this one twenty one to seven. Speaking of black 1449 01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:33,160 Speaker 7: and blue, that's a big ten. I think that's what 1450 01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:36,120 Speaker 7: they call big ten football. Because number twenty two Illinois, 1451 01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:39,800 Speaker 7: number twenty four Michigan at halftime, and that's a It's 1452 01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:43,120 Speaker 7: been a bruising game for both sides. There's only a 1453 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 7: thirteen to seven lead for the ALIGNI number. 1454 01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:47,880 Speaker 4: Should have known with the throwback uniforms. 1455 01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:49,000 Speaker 1: Should I love those? 1456 01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:49,280 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1457 01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:52,200 Speaker 7: Those leather looking at helmets that they've got on there. 1458 01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:56,920 Speaker 7: Number twenty five Navy leading Charlotte thirty eight to ten. 1459 01:04:56,960 --> 01:05:00,320 Speaker 7: They've reached halftime at Annapolis and the midship and. 1460 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:01,160 Speaker 4: Looking to go to six and oh. 1461 01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:04,080 Speaker 7: Number twenty three Army is now seven and oh so 1462 01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:07,720 Speaker 7: that very well could set up a collision course for 1463 01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:11,120 Speaker 7: the Army Navy game, as the Black Knights taking care 1464 01:05:11,160 --> 01:05:14,280 Speaker 7: of East Carolina forty five to twenty eight. Some of 1465 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:17,200 Speaker 7: the other right teams that have gone final as a 1466 01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:20,080 Speaker 7: Miami in Louisville in a shootout with the Hurricanes. The 1467 01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:23,040 Speaker 7: six ranked Hurricanes win this win a fifty two to 1468 01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:26,440 Speaker 7: forty five. Number ten Clemson on a roll after losing 1469 01:05:26,480 --> 01:05:29,680 Speaker 7: to begin the season.

It's the Super 1502 01:07:10,640 --> 01:07:13,400 Speaker 3: Bowl rematch between the forty nine Ers and the Chiefs. 1503 01:07:14,120 --> 01:07:17,040 Speaker 3: What's been kind of the feeling and the vibe in 1504 01:07:17,080 --> 01:07:20,160 Speaker 3: the building heading into this revenge game tomorrow? 1505 01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:25,280 Speaker 6: Well, see right, they are. They have been very clear 1506 01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:28,600 Speaker 6: at least this is what they keep saying that it's 1507 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:31,560 Speaker 6: not a revenge game because, in the words of Trent Williams, 1508 01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:33,760 Speaker 6: we could win by one hundred and the champagne isn't 1509 01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:35,600 Speaker 6: good at pop and the comfette's not going to drop, 1510 01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:40,640 Speaker 6: which he's not wrong. So they in their heads it's 1511 01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:42,200 Speaker 6: not a revenge game. I have a hard time to 1512 01:07:42,280 --> 01:07:44,480 Speaker 6: leave you. They don't just want to beat the Chiefs 1513 01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:47,320 Speaker 6: a little bit extra, but they're also the situation right 1514 01:07:47,320 --> 01:07:49,400 Speaker 6: now where they are three and three. They have the 1515 01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:51,800 Speaker 6: Chiefs tomorrow, they have the Cowboys next week, and then 1516 01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:54,560 Speaker 6: they go into their bye week. So this is an 1517 01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:58,000 Speaker 6: important game. Even if it wasn't. The Chiefs The other 1518 01:07:58,040 --> 01:08:01,840 Speaker 6: thing is they have not beat the Chief for twenty fourteen, 1519 01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:05,360 Speaker 6: so this is a big ten years. 1520 01:08:05,480 --> 01:08:06,240 Speaker 4: I'll go back. 1521 01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:07,320 Speaker 6: It's good ten years. 1522 01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:09,240 Speaker 2: Ten years wow. 1523 01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:13,400 Speaker 6: Ten years since they beat the Chief. So aside, if 1524 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:15,480 Speaker 6: we took the revenge part out of it, should they 1525 01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:17,599 Speaker 6: meet the Chief down the road again? If they could 1526 01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:20,639 Speaker 6: win this game, I think them the confidence that, Okay, 1527 01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:23,800 Speaker 6: we can beat this teeth because even before Mahomes and 1528 01:08:23,840 --> 01:08:27,240 Speaker 6: before Property, before Debo and everybody else, they couldn't beat 1529 01:08:27,240 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 6: the Chiefs. 1530 01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:33,120 Speaker 5: Tracy, Yeah, I I we were talking about this earlier, 1531 01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:35,400 Speaker 5: and I feel like a lot of these guys, especially 1532 01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:37,000 Speaker 5: guys like Trent Williams, whove kind of been around the 1533 01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,280 Speaker 5: block here, They're like, no, no, it's just another game, 1534 01:08:39,360 --> 01:08:41,840 Speaker 5: like this is this is the regular season. Like they said, 1535 01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:44,280 Speaker 5: the confetti's not going to drop all this other stuff. 1536 01:08:44,320 --> 01:08:48,439 Speaker 5: But I know that the Chiefs have a bulletin board, 1537 01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:51,400 Speaker 5: I mean not a physical one. I don't think of 1538 01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:55,599 Speaker 5: things that they kind of manufacture motivation. Uh do the 1539 01:08:55,640 --> 01:08:58,280 Speaker 5: forty nine ers have the same thing? Do you think 1540 01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:00,960 Speaker 5: that Kyle Shanahan kind of behind those doors is getting 1541 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:03,360 Speaker 5: these guys a little bit more revved up? 1542 01:09:03,680 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 4: So to say? 1543 01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:06,639 Speaker 1: You know, I don't. 1544 01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 6: I don't know. It's kind of not his styles. Yeah, 1545 01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:14,080 Speaker 6: so to speak, you know, he is more His thing 1546 01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:16,160 Speaker 6: is more. I'll take you back a few weeks to 1547 01:09:16,240 --> 01:09:19,760 Speaker 6: the Rams game that they lost, and he said to 1548 01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:22,000 Speaker 6: them the night before, oh, yes, I saw your post. 1549 01:09:22,040 --> 01:09:26,040 Speaker 6: You looked adorable, he said. What's the things he said 1550 01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 6: to them the night before was we can't give them hope. 1551 01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 6: If you give a team with matthewed Stafford at quarterback 1552 01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:34,200 Speaker 6: a little bit of hope, he'll beat us. And he's 1553 01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:38,320 Speaker 6: more that guy of like, we can't turn the ball over, 1554 01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:41,719 Speaker 6: we can't be ineffective in the red zone, we can't 1555 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:44,759 Speaker 6: have dumb penalties because if you do that stuff against 1556 01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:48,639 Speaker 6: Patrick Mahomes, you'll lose. So I think he's more that 1557 01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:50,760 Speaker 6: kind of guy to fire them up. I don't think 1558 01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:53,439 Speaker 6: it's as much the we got to beat these guys 1559 01:09:53,479 --> 01:09:55,080 Speaker 6: because they beat us in the super Bowl. I don't 1560 01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:55,920 Speaker 6: think that's his style. 1561 01:09:57,400 --> 01:10:01,120 Speaker 3: Okay, Trace Rock Party has been a rise star in 1562 01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:03,519 Speaker 3: this league. We've been on the Brock pretty fan wagon 1563 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:05,720 Speaker 3: for a while now, but there are still a lot 1564 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:08,360 Speaker 3: of doubters. So would a big win over the Chiefs 1565 01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:12,479 Speaker 3: tomorrow solidify his plays as one of the top quarterbacks 1566 01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:13,080 Speaker 3: in the league. 1567 01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:16,599 Speaker 6: I mean, I think it should be solidified anyway. Yes, 1568 01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:18,840 Speaker 6: I think that would do a lot. There are still 1569 01:10:18,920 --> 01:10:21,080 Speaker 6: going to be people who just cannot get over the 1570 01:10:21,120 --> 01:10:25,280 Speaker 6: fact that he was last fixed in They will never 1571 01:10:25,439 --> 01:10:28,000 Speaker 6: get over that fact. But I think, yes, is he 1572 01:10:28,200 --> 01:10:31,960 Speaker 6: tomorrow without Christian McCaffrey. And I'm not going down that 1573 01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:34,719 Speaker 6: hole of oh no, it's not that just Christian Mccafrey's 1574 01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:39,080 Speaker 6: Christian McCaffrey. Is he tomorrow without Christian McCaffrey not going 1575 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:42,840 Speaker 6: to have Juwan Jennings, Like, if he can get this 1576 01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:45,400 Speaker 6: offense together and if he could lead them to a 1577 01:10:45,439 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 6: win and beat a Patrick Mahomes Chiefs team, then yes, 1578 01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:52,000 Speaker 6: I think it would do a lot to solidify him. 1579 01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:53,960 Speaker 6: There are the people though, that are just always not 1580 01:10:54,040 --> 01:10:55,960 Speaker 6: going to be there. But yes, I think it would 1581 01:10:56,000 --> 01:10:58,839 Speaker 6: do a lot to solidify him as a top quarterback 1582 01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:01,160 Speaker 6: in this league. But the thing that's going to be 1583 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,160 Speaker 6: so interesting about it is so much of this is 1584 01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:05,280 Speaker 6: going to be on the defense too. It's not all 1585 01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 6: going to be in brock fans. 1586 01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:08,920 Speaker 5: It's interesting. I'm stealing this from somebody on Twitter, and 1587 01:11:08,920 --> 01:11:12,240 Speaker 5: I don't know exactly who, but we talk a lot 1588 01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:14,200 Speaker 5: about system quarterbacks, and I think that was the fear 1589 01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:16,320 Speaker 5: that brock Perty was a system quarterback and he had 1590 01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:17,160 Speaker 5: Kyle Shanahan. 1591 01:11:17,520 --> 01:11:19,160 Speaker 4: But with Shanahan in. 1592 01:11:19,120 --> 01:11:21,800 Speaker 5: Particular, I don't think it's so much of having a 1593 01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:24,200 Speaker 5: system quarterback. I think we need to have the conversation 1594 01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:28,400 Speaker 5: about system running backs because you talk about Christian McCaffrey 1595 01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:31,800 Speaker 5: not being on this team, but then Jordan Mason has 1596 01:11:31,840 --> 01:11:34,719 Speaker 5: the second most rushing yards in the league, the second 1597 01:11:34,720 --> 01:11:39,000 Speaker 5: most touches of anyone. Is there a conversation kind of 1598 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:42,320 Speaker 5: to be had then about Shanahan's system in particular and 1599 01:11:42,360 --> 01:11:45,200 Speaker 5: how it's almost kind of plug and play with just 1600 01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:48,560 Speaker 5: a serviceable running back. Obviously, no one, you know, replaces 1601 01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:51,320 Speaker 5: Christian McCaffrey because of the dual threat that he is. 1602 01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:54,519 Speaker 5: But as far as the ground game, the Niners haven't 1603 01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:55,160 Speaker 5: lost a step. 1604 01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:58,360 Speaker 6: They have it and this is an area where Kyle 1605 01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:02,559 Speaker 6: Shanahan has always shined. They're always finding beast like go back, 1606 01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:05,680 Speaker 6: going back to Jeff Wilson. You know, Raheem Moster gets hurt, 1607 01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:08,599 Speaker 6: they put Jelf Filton, and Jeff Wilson is having career game. 1608 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:11,600 Speaker 6: This is something that Shanahan does really well. And I 1609 01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:13,639 Speaker 6: will say maybe, and there are a lot of people 1610 01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:15,080 Speaker 6: that are gonna get mad at me for saying this, 1611 01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:18,720 Speaker 6: but maybe we need to give Kyle shannonhan his flowers, 1612 01:12:18,920 --> 01:12:21,599 Speaker 6: Like maybe he really does know how to run an offense, 1613 01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:23,600 Speaker 6: and maybe he knows how to tailor an offense to 1614 01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:26,640 Speaker 6: his personnel and all the other way around, and so 1615 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:30,160 Speaker 6: therefore these guys are all really successful in his offense. 1616 01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:33,080 Speaker 6: But yes, what he does with running backs, it's incredible 1617 01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:35,559 Speaker 6: and that and Jordan Mason is a good running back. 1618 01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:37,360 Speaker 6: He's a physical back. He was someone that they were 1619 01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:40,559 Speaker 6: excited about when he was a rookie, but obviously showing 1620 01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:44,200 Speaker 6: what an incredible season he's having this far. Isaac Garrendo 1621 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,800 Speaker 6: has a big play at the end of the game 1622 01:12:46,840 --> 01:12:49,360 Speaker 6: against Seahawks, and he really hadn't done much, but he's 1623 01:12:49,439 --> 01:12:52,360 Speaker 6: kind of maybe potentially coming into his own, which this 1624 01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:55,320 Speaker 6: rookie class has actually been pretty incredible. But yeah, I 1625 01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:57,800 Speaker 6: think there is definitely something to be said for that, 1626 01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:00,479 Speaker 6: But I also think he knows how to tailor offense 1627 01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:02,200 Speaker 6: to the guys he has playing in his offense. 1628 01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:04,400 Speaker 3: We love it trace before we let you go, I'm 1629 01:13:04,400 --> 01:13:06,920 Speaker 3: gonna switch gears real quick to the NLCS. Every game 1630 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:10,320 Speaker 3: has been a blowout, offensive explosion between the Dodgers and 1631 01:13:10,400 --> 01:13:10,759 Speaker 3: the Mets. 1632 01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:11,720 Speaker 2: Dodgers are up three to two. 1633 01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:15,240 Speaker 3: Yes, tomorrow they have a chance to close it out 1634 01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:17,120 Speaker 3: in Game six. Do you think it's gonna happen? 1635 01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:19,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, I do, I really do. I think they're going 1636 01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:22,320 Speaker 6: to close it out. I think it was probably unrealistic 1637 01:13:22,360 --> 01:13:24,559 Speaker 6: to think that they could sweep the mess in New York. 1638 01:13:24,960 --> 01:13:27,360 Speaker 6: These are a very good baseball team. They have the 1639 01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:30,880 Speaker 6: tremendous crowd there. So yes, I think I think they 1640 01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:35,120 Speaker 6: will finish it out tomorrow. I have complete confidence in it. 1641 01:13:36,080 --> 01:13:41,400 Speaker 6: One went away and comes tomorrow night. I do, I 1642 01:13:41,400 --> 01:13:42,439 Speaker 6: really do think they're gonna win it. 1643 01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:45,840 Speaker 3: I said, I said Dodgers and six, So let's hope. 1644 01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:48,120 Speaker 3: You so, Tracy, Thank you so much for coming on 1645 01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:49,719 Speaker 3: the show.

Now let this 1667 01:14:46,360 --> 01:14:49,840 Speaker 10: also be said. Carmen, you also had your best showing. 1668 01:14:49,880 --> 01:14:53,160 Speaker 10: You went four for five. The last game is the 1669 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:55,880 Speaker 10: only one you guys were differing. I know something was 1670 01:14:55,920 --> 01:14:57,400 Speaker 10: gonna give, Something was gonna give. 1671 01:14:57,479 --> 01:14:59,040 Speaker 4: That's been all over my losses. 1672 01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:02,280 Speaker 5: I've just been like the overthinking things or teams losing 1673 01:15:02,320 --> 01:15:03,320 Speaker 5: games they should have won. 1674 01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:08,120 Speaker 10: Well, at least this, you're you're only three back. If 1675 01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:10,720 Speaker 10: let's just say, if you hit a golden five and 1676 01:15:10,840 --> 01:15:12,280 Speaker 10: there's some differings here and there. 1677 01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:14,840 Speaker 4: All of a sudden, I think there might be some differences. 1678 01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:17,599 Speaker 10: We'll see. Well, let's let's see here and see if 1679 01:15:17,600 --> 01:15:19,360 Speaker 10: you guys go different on this one. The first one, 1680 01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:23,599 Speaker 10: the Kansas City Chiefs taking on the Sarrancisco Ford and Iers. 1681 01:15:23,640 --> 01:15:26,719 Speaker 10: It's a Super Bowl rematch. Nineers are two point favorites. 1682 01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:30,040 Speaker 10: At home are fearless leader Alex take it away. 1683 01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:34,479 Speaker 3: The fact that the undefeated, defending champs are not the 1684 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:38,040 Speaker 3: favorite is just kind of a little disrespectful to Patrick 1685 01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:40,120 Speaker 3: Mahomes and the Chiefs. I think Mahomes is going to 1686 01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:43,120 Speaker 3: use it as motivation. Plus, Andy Reid off of a 1687 01:15:43,160 --> 01:15:46,160 Speaker 3: bye is twenty one and four, the best record ever 1688 01:15:46,280 --> 01:15:47,280 Speaker 3: following a bye. 1689 01:15:47,760 --> 01:15:48,960 Speaker 2: I'm going with the Chiefs here. 1690 01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:51,759 Speaker 3: I think they're gonna keep it rolling and keep Kevin 1691 01:15:51,840 --> 01:15:53,120 Speaker 3: Kyle Shanahan's number. 1692 01:15:53,400 --> 01:15:55,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think so too. I think it's the Chiefs. 1693 01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:57,880 Speaker 5: I think they just it's it's too much and they 1694 01:15:58,360 --> 01:16:02,519 Speaker 5: they have Shannahan's number. That's Spagnolo in particular, see Spagnolo 1695 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:03,719 Speaker 5: the defensive coordinator there. 1696 01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:07,000 Speaker 10: All right, Well, that's that's one that's on the same side. 1697 01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:10,240 Speaker 4: Let's see, and I'm looking at you on this one, Carmen, 1698 01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:14,160 Speaker 4: for this, we have to be happy with me the Detroit. 1699 01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 10: Lions, my Minnesota Vikings King King. Of course, naturally, the 1700 01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:24,040 Speaker 10: Vikings are one half point favorites here and Carmen, miss 1701 01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:27,200 Speaker 10: NFC North expert, please tell me. 1702 01:16:27,439 --> 01:16:29,320 Speaker 5: I know, I know the Vikings are coming off of 1703 01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:32,920 Speaker 5: a bye, but I'm gonna go Lions. 1704 01:16:32,960 --> 01:16:35,040 Speaker 4: I'm sorry. Patrick, Here's the thing. 1705 01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:37,840 Speaker 5: I think they're going to have a little bit of 1706 01:16:37,880 --> 01:16:39,679 Speaker 5: a spark, a little bit extra motivation now that they've 1707 01:16:39,680 --> 01:16:40,680 Speaker 5: lost Adan Hutchinson. 1708 01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:43,599 Speaker 4: On top of that, I think. 1709 01:16:43,400 --> 01:16:47,080 Speaker 5: That this Viking, this Vikings defense under Brian Flores makes 1710 01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:49,800 Speaker 5: things especially hard on quarterbacks right but Chared Goff has 1711 01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:51,479 Speaker 5: the best offensive line in the league in front of him, 1712 01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 5: and as long as they can pick up all those 1713 01:16:52,840 --> 01:16:55,360 Speaker 5: crazy stunts that Floraes likes to do up front, they're 1714 01:16:55,400 --> 01:16:56,000 Speaker 5: gonna be fine. 1715 01:16:56,880 --> 01:16:57,800 Speaker 4: Detroy Lions. 1716 01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:03,439 Speaker 3: I'm also going with the They love being the underdog. 1717 01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:07,439 Speaker 3: They're also coming off an absolute kill in Dallas. Jared 1718 01:17:07,479 --> 01:17:09,080 Speaker 3: Goff has been lights out. 1719 01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:13,280 Speaker 4: A week. Hell us has the clip reloaded for the 1720 01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:14,320 Speaker 4: Vikings right now, like. 1721 01:17:14,360 --> 01:17:17,200 Speaker 3: Insane though, but like Jared Goff was given the game 1722 01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:19,519 Speaker 3: ball in Dallas, and then handed it back to Dan 1723 01:17:19,600 --> 01:17:21,400 Speaker 3: Campbell and it was like he is our he is 1724 01:17:21,439 --> 01:17:23,960 Speaker 3: our fearless leader. And the chills that I got just 1725 01:17:24,000 --> 01:17:25,720 Speaker 3: like seeing how this team is rid or dive for 1726 01:17:25,800 --> 01:17:29,000 Speaker 3: Dan Campbell like I Lion's baby Lions. 1727 01:17:29,360 --> 01:17:31,800 Speaker 10: All Right, well, we're still not going that far away 1728 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:35,160 Speaker 10: from the NFC North on this next one, because in fact, 1729 01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:39,759 Speaker 10: it is the Houston Jexans are going to lambeau Field 1730 01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:42,759 Speaker 10: to take on the Packers two and a half point favorites. 1731 01:17:42,840 --> 01:17:47,280 Speaker 10: By the way, the Winter Tundra, Alex, who you taking 1732 01:17:47,479 --> 01:17:48,000 Speaker 10: in this one? 1733 01:17:49,600 --> 01:17:50,080 Speaker 2: It's tough. 1734 01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:53,120 Speaker 3: This one like kind of feels like a toss up, 1735 01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:57,320 Speaker 3: like Jordan Love and the Packers have looked good. Texans 1736 01:17:57,360 --> 01:17:59,800 Speaker 3: top wide receiver is out, but Joe Mixon came back 1737 01:18:00,160 --> 01:18:01,559 Speaker 3: week it just went off. 1738 01:18:02,120 --> 01:18:03,680 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna roll the Texans. 1739 01:18:04,160 --> 01:18:07,080 Speaker 5: I it's not quite the winner Tundra yet, it's not 1740 01:18:07,080 --> 01:18:09,400 Speaker 5: gonna be that cold yet, but I'm saying I'm still 1741 01:18:09,439 --> 01:18:12,559 Speaker 5: taking the Packers. I think Jordan Love just looks like 1742 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:15,400 Speaker 5: he's getting back to one hundred percent and he has 1743 01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:18,360 Speaker 5: pretty much all of his receiving weapons available to him. 1744 01:18:18,360 --> 01:18:21,799 Speaker 5: I know lu Luke Musgrave is out, but he has 1745 01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:24,560 Speaker 5: just so many different options and I just don't I 1746 01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:26,360 Speaker 5: don't trust many teams to be able to account for 1747 01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:28,360 Speaker 5: every single one of them. So the fact that Jordan 1748 01:18:28,439 --> 01:18:30,920 Speaker 5: Love is starting to roll this offense, is starting to 1749 01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:33,439 Speaker 5: roll this defense. We need to see a little bit 1750 01:18:33,479 --> 01:18:35,680 Speaker 5: more pressure on CJ. Stroud this game. But if they 1751 01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:37,920 Speaker 5: can take the ball away, I think it's a wrap 1752 01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:38,519 Speaker 5: for the Packers. 1753 01:18:38,680 --> 01:18:42,160 Speaker 10: Well, speaking of teams on the roll here, because our 1754 01:18:42,200 --> 01:18:45,840 Speaker 10: next one has the Baltimore Ravens on the road, but 1755 01:18:46,479 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 10: three and a half point favorites on the road going 1756 01:18:49,240 --> 01:18:54,479 Speaker 10: up against Tampa Bay and baker Manfield the. 1757 01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:59,280 Speaker 4: Monday night On Monday Night, pad on Oh. 1758 01:18:59,280 --> 01:19:01,720 Speaker 5: Given to me by one of the coaches a couple 1759 01:19:01,720 --> 01:19:04,320 Speaker 5: of years ago. No, I'm actually taking the Buccaneers. And 1760 01:19:04,320 --> 01:19:07,200 Speaker 5: here's why. WHOA So they have not They've been struggling 1761 01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:08,760 Speaker 5: against the run. That is the calling card of Todd 1762 01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:12,200 Speaker 5: Bowles defense is against the run. But guess what. Elijah 1763 01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:15,360 Speaker 5: Cantsey is back, Vitave is in the lineup, Antoine Winfield 1764 01:19:15,479 --> 01:19:18,519 Speaker 5: is in the lineup. They are healthy on defense and 1765 01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:21,519 Speaker 5: I think it's going to get it done against the Ravens. 1766 01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:24,840 Speaker 4: Do what other teams can't. I'm rolling with the Bucks. 1767 01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:28,200 Speaker 3: No, I'm taking the ravens Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry 1768 01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:30,160 Speaker 3: have been the best one to two punch. I think 1769 01:19:30,160 --> 01:19:32,200 Speaker 3: they keep it rolling. Let's get to the final game. 1770 01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:32,639 Speaker 4: Final one. 1771 01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:35,360 Speaker 10: We have the Jets to put favorites on the road 1772 01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:37,280 Speaker 10: at the Pittsburgh Steelers. 1773 01:19:37,680 --> 01:19:39,760 Speaker 4: Well, the real quarterback please stand up. 1774 01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:43,160 Speaker 2: At Rogers got his guy, DeVante Adams. 1775 01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:45,599 Speaker 3: Steelers are messing with the good vibes by putting russ 1776 01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:47,760 Speaker 3: In overfield. So I'm taking the Jets for the first 1777 01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:50,439 Speaker 3: time this season. Aaron Rodgers, don't make me regret this. 1778 01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:51,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm taking the Jets too. 1779 01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:55,280 Speaker 5: I think there's gonna be a spark there, even if 1780 01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:57,000 Speaker 5: the Steelers gonna spark too from Russell Wilson. 1781 01:19:57,000 --> 01:19:57,320 Speaker 4: I don't know. 1782 01:19:57,400 --> 01:19:59,800 Speaker 5: We'll see, but that defense is gonna be tough time 1783 01:20:00,360 --> 01:20:01,800 Speaker 5: Adams and Aaron Rodgers. 1784 01:20:01,560 --> 01:20:02,280 Speaker 2: It's going to happen. 1785 01:20:02,360 --> 01:20:04,559 Speaker 3: Thank you so much for spending your Saturday afternoon with us. 1786 01:20:04,600 --> 01:20:06,519 Speaker 3: We'll see you next week, same time, same place.
