Speaker 2: my own little remix on it, you know, on the

8
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:26,600
Speaker 2: classic original Martin Wiss VJ Husky on a Saturday evening,

9
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,159
Speaker 2: eight o'clock on the East coast, five o'clock on the

10
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 2: West coast, where it is up and smoke out here.

11
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 2: There have been fires raging all week. We've both been

12
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,960
Speaker 2: impacted in some way in some form, and it's honestly

13
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 2: impossible not to be impacted by these fires if you

14
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 2: live in Los Angeles or the surrounding areas. So this

15
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 2: prayers up to everybody who's being impacted by that, having

16
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,680
Speaker 2: to evacuate me, have lost their homes or anything. And

17
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 2: thank you to the first responders and all the other

18
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 2: people from across the world at this point coming to

19
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 2: Los Angeles to help with the efforts, and thank you

20
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: to the journalists on the front line going in fourth

21

Speaker 2: and and saying where it's safe to be and getting

22
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 2: out information. As you know. I don't know about you, VJ,

23
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 2: but I've had two separate things that told me I

24
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 2: had to evacuate and it was like, oh wait, false alarm.

25
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 2: I found that out because of the news. So thank

26
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 2: you to everybody involved on that regard as well.

27
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, man, As always, thank you to all the

30
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 3: it's been, it's been. It's been. It's been scary, I'll

31
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,320
Speaker 3: say because I've never had to be evacuated before. I've

32
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 3: lived out in Los Angeles for a long time. I've

33
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 3: seen these fires, earthquakes, things, every anything that can happen

34
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 3: in Cali. I've been through. I've been here long enough

35
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,119
Speaker 3: and seen it. But I have never had to stop

36
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: what I was doing immediately and grab everything and grab

37
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 3: the kitties and make plans and get out. So prayers

38
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 3: up for everybody out here.

39
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 2: Man. It is.

40
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 3: You know, it's up and smoke, but you know, like

41
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 3: Martin said, just a tip of the hat to everybody

42
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 3: that is working. I passed a donation tent on their

43
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 3: way in wildfire donation tent. The ladies out there with

44
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 3: a tent and a table when people are just dropping

45
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 3: things off. Man, So just pray for everybody out here,

46
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 3: and if you can give a little, give a little,

47
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 3: because there are a lot of people lost, a lot

48
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 3: of home structures, builders and stuff.

49
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 2: But we're gonna do what we.

50
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 3: Do, Mark, We're gonna come in here and we're gonna

53
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:16,919
Speaker 3: in the second. So let's go, man, Let's.

54

55
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 2: and as best we have the best of the best

56
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 2: playing in the football I both college football and in

57
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 2: the NFL. DJ if you if you listen to this show,

58
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 2: I'm not saying you, but the fans of the world,

59
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: if you listen to the show I listened to it,

60
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 2: you know that may J and I have at a

61
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 2: season long picks competition. Eighteen weeks. We picked five games,

62
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 2: and that is now settled. That pick competition is done

63
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 2: the regular season. It's its own season now. It's not

64
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 2: for the postseason. That's where legends are made les, Sam

65
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 2: Darnold said earlier this week and where legends will be

66
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 2: made on this show right here, So VJ, I know

67
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 2: we're doing things a little bit out of order.

68
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 4: Now.

69
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 2: We already missed one game, the Chargers and the Texans.

70
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that in about fifteen minutes and the

71
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 2: fallout from either side. But seeing as we have a

72
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 2: game about to kick off, I'm looking at Kirk Kurbstreet

73
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 2: and Al Michaels. I'm watching it on my laptop because

74
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 2: it's only streaming on Amazon. Thanks a lot. But anyway,

75
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,399
Speaker 2: this game is starting in a few minutes, VJ. Let's

76
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 2: hurry up quickly pick this side. It's Baltimore nine and

77
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 2: a half. Baltimore the home team, obviously AFC North Division winner,

78
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh the wild card.

79
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 3: Then nine and a half scares the hell out of

80
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,959
Speaker 3: me because it could be this could be a twenty

81
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 3: point win for the Raves, like they can go out here.

82
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 3: I think this is Lamar Jackson's best opportunity this season

83
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 3: to win the Super Bowl even more than last year.

84
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 3: And I think he probably might win the MVP this

85
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 3: year if they don't just give it to Josh Allen

86
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 3: Over sympathy. But but you know, Tomlin, you know the Steelers,

87
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 3: like the Steelers are those team. It's like the Spurs

88
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 3: right for so long, I'm not counting them out even

89
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 3: though they have not won a playoff game. I believe

90
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 3: in eight years. They haven't won a playoff game in

91
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 3: a long time. But to keep finishing over five hundred,

92
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 3: and that's honest. What keeps Tomlin his job is that

93
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 3: it's the Steelers. They don't make changes. They've only had

94
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 3: what four coaches in the history of their of their franchise.

95
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 3: They don't They're not gonna fire the guy he's he's winning.

96
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 3: These companions get to the playoffs, but they're not winning

97
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 3: playoff games. But being at it's nine and a half,

98
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 3: I will I'll say I'll take the Steelers to cover,

99
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 3: but I still think the Ravens win the game. No,

100
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 3: Zay Flowers is going to be huge.

101
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 2: That young man.

102
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 3: I told you guys last year he is the next

103
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 3: Tyreek Hill type player. And you saw it last year

104
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 3: a little bit better rookie numbers did Tyree and then

105
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:31,359
Speaker 3: you saw it.

106
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 2: Exploding year number two pro baller.

107
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 3: But him being out is just that, that's that worries

108
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 3: me because I really don't trust any other receivers there.

109
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 3: That's why I've been so high on him. So I'll

110
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 3: take the Steelers to cover. But I think the Ravens

111
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 3: do pull it off because they do just have the

112
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 3: better offensive, better teams. And I'll take Lamar and Derrick

113
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 3: Henry over Naje. Harris's nag playing in that because I

114
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 3: know he got banged up and got hurt, so I

115
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 3: didn't check to say he's playing. But I'll take Nase

116
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 3: over Russell Wilson. I mean, I'll take that quarterback running

117
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 3: back over the Steelers quarter to make the plays.

118
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 2: To win the game. I also, I am taking the

119
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 2: Steelers plus nine and a half, and just I know

120
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 2: we're not supposed to do this, I'm rooting for the

121
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 2: Steelers as well. Like Penn State. Yeah, like hey, hey,

122
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,679
Speaker 2: and we'll talk about Penn State update, we'll dive into

123
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 2: that game. Because your eye was on the bat. I

124
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 2: was on the edge of my seat. It was like,

125
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 2: let's go E s U or whatever they say is hey,

126
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 2: And I would have been right because no one would

127
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 2: have been happy if that team. Nobody would have happy

128
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 2: if that team won a national championship. The way they

129
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 2: played in that game, if they somehow want it, nobody,

130
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 2: nobody would have been happy about it. I'm going with

131
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 2: the Steelers here, but I just I want Tomlin Street

132
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 2: to end. I do not think that it's some level

133
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 2: of failure that Mike Tomlin has not won a playoff

134
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 2: game in a little while, right. I know it's been

135
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,719
Speaker 2: all year, it's been eight years, but you know what else,

136
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 2: like the idea that finishing five hundred or better every

137
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 2: single year is somehow hell does a black mark on

138
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin is insane to me? And I just so,

139
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 2: I just that's what I want. I want it so

140
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 2: everybody can shut up and they don't to only say

141
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 2: they'll just go, well.

142
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 3: This would have been one playoff way in the usaight years.

143
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 3: Well you know what you were wrong?

144
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 2: Then? Yeah.

145
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,560
Speaker 3: But here here's the thing, and I hate they actually

146
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 3: rebuttle that because it makes perfect sense. But I heard

147
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 3: Colin say something that that's really stuck with me before,

148
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 3: and he said, we have to stop making mediocre good.

149
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 3: And if you're a team, take Toomlin's name away, take

150
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 3: the Steelers brand away, give it to another coach and

151
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 3: another franchise. Other than the Packers, the Cowboys, give it

152
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 3: to another franchise or anything like we would be fighting,

153
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 3: we would be calling for his Jobin Dolphin, people are

154
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 3: calling for Mike McDaniel, who's oh, he missed the playoffs

155
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 3: his first time in his three year coaching career in

156
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 3: Miami went to the playoffs.

157
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 2: But now the playoffs don't count for him.

158
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 3: But because Tomlin does it, I agree with you, we

159
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 3: do kind of hold it in Laura Man, they just

160
00:06:58,680 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 3: don't finish under five hundred.

161
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, but is nine and eight really good? Like it's

162
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 2: nine and eight really good? Like, No, it's not. It's

163
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 2: in the middle, it's mediocre. It's an odd number of

164
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 2: games now, so no one's can beat no one can

165
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 2: beat five hundred anymore. You're either gonna be over five hundred.

166
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,480
Speaker 3: Are you gonna be under five hundred in the NFL

167
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 3: moving forward unless they go to eighteen games.

168
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 2: So the fact of the matter is the only way

169
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 2: you can win a Super Bowl is to qualify first

170
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 2: for the playoffs. And every single year I'm watching the

171
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers start the likes of Mason Rudolph and Duck

172
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 2: Hodges and who was the quarterback last year before Mason, Rudolph,

173
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 2: Kenny Pickett. I'm watching these these murderers row of quarterbacks

174
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 2: walking through the and this is not in the NFC.

175
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 2: This is the AFC with Patrick Mahomes, Jeff Den, Herbert,

176
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, like this is the this is

177
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 2: this is the Superero quarterback. Oh look, don't leave out Ooz.

178
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 2: I did these, say Herbert? I did say Herbert, who

179
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 2: had quadro rupled his interception count today. It was a

180
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 2: tough day, it was a lay was a rougher last

181
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 2: week for you to blame you to plant your flag

182
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 2: on Justin Herbert last week before his worst game of

183
00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 2: the year. And I mean, it's just the way that

184
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 2: this play. The ball bounces sometimes, it's just the prediction.

185
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: Game is tough.

186
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 3: You've been holding that one, ready for that one?

187
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 2: Just you wait until this one. Honest how much football?

188
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 2: I'm good? So I'm waiting. I can't wait to talk

189
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 2: that well, we can't. Honestly. Look, there's one thing I'll

190
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,280
Speaker 2: be honest with that it's in the tank right now,

191
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 2: and that is when you hear how the picks went,

192
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 2: You're going to blow your mind. Just know that you

193
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 2: already told him. Did you already tell me the result? Honestly, no,

194
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 2: I asked remember I asked you Sunday because I was

195
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,439
Speaker 2: like if I am I? I was like, am I right?

196
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 2: If these these things occurred, and they everything did? I

197
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 2: asked them ahead of time, and so I remembered the results.

198
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 2: So we'll get to that in just a moment. Lamar

199
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 2: Jackson losing this game, though, as catastrophic as it would

200
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 2: be for Mike Tomlin to lose this game and continue

201
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 2: the streak, it would be so much worse for Lamar

202
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 2: Jackson's almost career.

203
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 3: And then by well, TV shows Monday morning, but you go, okay,

204
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 3: you know tell the Monday morning by TV shows just like,

205
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 3: oh he's done. It'll go from it'll go this is

206
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 3: what will happen on Monday morning on your on your

207
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 3: your cable debate television shows. It will go from Lamar

208
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 3: Jackson will eventually to Lamar Jackson is unable to win

209
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 3: a super Bowl.

210
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 2: He can't do it well, he can't do well, and

211
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 2: the evidence will be well because he hasn't yet, I

212
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 2: just would submit one Jason Tatum, like all these people

213
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,719
Speaker 2: who can't win championships, the only way you can't win

214
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 2: is if you don't make the playoffs. And if you're

215
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 2: in the playoffs every single year, you've got a shot,

216
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 2: by a literal definition.

217
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 3: And then Tatum actually goes and wins one, and the

218
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 3: disrespect rises. Well, Tatum actually goes and wins one and

219
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,679
Speaker 3: and and I'm seeing people say even more wild stuff.

220
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,959
Speaker 3: Now now he's soft. Oh wow, I think I think

221
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 3: what it is. Okay, I think part of what it is.

222
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 3: If we may, I'll walk down this.

223
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 2: Road, because you know what, it's been a you know me,

224
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 2: how long and freaking week? Why not? Yeah? If Jason

225
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 2: Tatum didn't mimic every single or seemingly every single iconic

226
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 2: NBA celebration as he was celebrating, I don't think the

227
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 2: reaction would have been the same. I mean, but here's

228
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 2: the thing that's interesting about it, Jason Tatum is what

229
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 2: is what? How old is? Jason said, with twenty five,

230
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 2: I got twenty six, I got is about ten years

231
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 2: younger than me, which is the generation that like I

232
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 2: grew up, I remember dial up internet. If you're ten

233
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,559
Speaker 2: years younger than me, which I think ian is what

234
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 2: about twelve years younger than me?

235
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm twenty five, twenty five, twenty five, Ian, Oh

236
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,599
Speaker 3: your baby, dude, So we're in the same range. Do

237
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,199
Speaker 3: you remember a time in your life before the Internet?

238
00:10:59,559 --> 00:10:59,599
Speaker 5: No?

239
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:01,480
Speaker 2: Really? Okay, yeah, not really.

240
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 3: You didn't even know what a beeper is, right, but

241
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 3: even deeper than that, so like he doesn't even remember

242
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,839
Speaker 3: a time that they're like the internet didn't exist from

243
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 3: everything that all intensive purposes his memories.

244
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,559
Speaker 2: He could always go online, whether it's a welly it

245
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 2: sounded like the dial up or whatever to what we

246
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 2: have now. So at what point, at what age were

247
00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 2: you when you got your first social media account? And

248
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 2: what was it?

249
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,839
Speaker 6: I got Instagram first, and that was probably when I

250
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 6: was wow, twelve.

251
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 3: Okay, twenty So think about that. He's twelve years old

252
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 3: when he gets Instagram.

253
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 2: So if Jason Tatum and Ian are about the same age,

254
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,599
Speaker 2: Jason Tatum, I think it stands a reason. And he

255
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 2: got his Instagram somewhere between eleven and fourteen, right, mind

256
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 2: you too, he's tearing up Saint Louis as a basketball player,

257
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 2: so he's got probably well known on the thing too. Right,

258
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 2: he sees all these different instances. You see how many

259
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 2: times you see the meme of Kobe holding the trophy.

260
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 2: How many times you watch Kevin Garnet say anything is possible,

261
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 2: it becomes this thing. It becomes this thing because it's

262
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 2: in your face every day. It's not just the memory

263
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 2: of watching it on TV and then you don't see

264
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 2: it again until the next year. Right, it's in your

265
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:12,119
Speaker 2: face consistently.

266
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 6: It's like Rayola imitating Mahomes exactly.

267
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 2: It's like people said, like I can see a world

268
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 2: where Jason Tatum says, this is what this is supposed

269
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 2: to look like. This is what it's supposed to look

270
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 2: like when I win a championship. Now, everybody like us

271
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 2: who saw those moments organically happen, We're like, that's not

272
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 2: No one told Kevin Garnet to say anything as possible.

273
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 2: No one told Mike to hold the trophy like that

274
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 2: like cryings out. He just was doing it. But after

275
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 2: a while, it's kind of like the same way you

276
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 2: see guys imitating others games. Right, It's like you see

277
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 2: Dwayne Wade's crossover, it was Alan Iverson's both Alan Iversus

278
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 2: crossover was Dwayne Wade's crossover. Then Dwayne Wade added to

279
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 2: spin and you know what I'm saying then you see guys.

280
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 3: Bida Mitchell said he likes to play that Wade and

281
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 3: you can see it. You can see it in his game.

282
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, so like head, why would he not jump on

283
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 2: the scorer's table afterwards, because that's what they want. That's

284
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 2: what d Wade did. Wade did. It's my house. It's

285
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,199
Speaker 2: my house. That's my tip.

286
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 3: No, I'm not mad at it, man, I just because

287
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 3: if you remember, if you were to remember, people used

288
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,959
Speaker 3: to go after Kobe for saying he was trying to

289
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 3: act like Jordan. She was gun like Jordan, and Kobe

290
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 3: did Kobe and Kobe's my guy. Everybody knows basketball player

291
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,080
Speaker 3: repented at the time.

292
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 2: He was honest.

293
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,439
Speaker 3: He was very upfront about it. Yeah, I studied. I

294
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 3: used to have my friends record Bulls games to me

295
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 3: and then send them to me in Italy when my

296
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 3: dad was over there, when he was over in Europe,

297
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 3: and I would watch him and study his moves. I

298
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 3: always defindited it, as you guys are just mad because

299
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 3: he's actually good enough to pull it off. Because there

300
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,599
Speaker 3: are people that try to imitate and try to be

301
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 3: other type of players or try to take something from

302
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,839
Speaker 3: somebody's game, and it just it just never happens. It

303
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 3: It never you know, it never formulates like people go

304
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 3: see a LaJuan, right, but how many people do you

305
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 3: actually see Take that to the court, take that to

306
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 3: the game, and put that in there game like Kobe did.

307
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 3: When Kobe came back from a LaJuan, he told no,

308
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 3: this is the dream shape. Mike had a little Shimmy

309
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 3: dream had to shake. Kobe had to shape and very

310
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,079
Speaker 3: few people able to do it. Jason Tatum is just

311
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 3: mimicking I think too many people.

312
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 2: But Lis can do what. I gotta take off on him.

313
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 2: Coming up next. One of these teams had great vibes

314
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 2: all year and the other had terrible all year, and

315
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 2: it is flipped. We'll talk about that in just a moment.

316
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 2: Ian Rocker down. We both have Steelers plus nine and

317
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,480

Speaker 2: Still scoreless between the Baltimore Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

325
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 2: Both teams have possessed the ball, but still waiting to

326
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 2: see anything happen, just to getting started. Nine to forty

327
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 2: five left in the first quarter.

328
00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 7: There.

329
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 2: Steve Sager will update you on that everything else in

330
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 2: the world of sports in about seven minutes. But right

331
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 2: now it's time to a recap what's already been done.

332
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 2: We have one playoff game so far in the books VJ.

333
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 2: It is the Chargers and the Texans. This was a

334
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 2: trendy upset pick across America. A lot of people picked

335
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 2: the Chargers to go in and upset the home team,

336
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 2: the Houston Texans, And this is what I was saying.

337
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 2: The vibes of these two teams were radically different all year.

338
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 2: Start let's start with the Chargers. Well, actually I'll start

339
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 2: with the Texans. The Texans up and down, embarrassed on Christmas,

340
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 2: end up finishing the year. They are not finishing, They're

341
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 2: not done yet, but finishing the year the same way

342
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 2: they finished last year, winning a home playoff game. The

343
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 2: Chargers had great vibes all season due to the you know,

344
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 2: the influx of Jim Harbaugh, adding him into the roster

345
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 2: and quite honestly a lot of addition by subtraction. There

346
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 2: was a lot of guys who left this team, but

347
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 2: the vibes were all good. But then we get into

348
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 2: the postseason, Justin Herbert has his worst game of the

349
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 2: post of the whole entire season, and Chargers not able

350
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 2: to run the ball, two things that had been keys

351
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 2: for them all year. Justin Herbert playing well and being

352
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 2: able to run the ball.

353
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, running the ball is always my first easiest one,

354
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 3: being able to see this team up close on personal.

355
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 3: When they run the football, that's when they win. But

356
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:25,360
Speaker 3: my new favorite stat of football, which really I guess

357
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 3: fester it over.

358
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 2: Maybe like the last twelve weeks.

359
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 3: It hasn't been like the whole season, but as the

360
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 3: season goes on, if you go look at third down

361
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 3: conversion offensively and defensively, because we could talk about running

362
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 3: the ball, stopping a run, rushing the passer, protecting the passer,

363
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,280
Speaker 3: but if you can't get off the field, or you

364
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 3: can't stay on the field, you can't.

365
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 2: Win football games. Gotta be able to possess You've.

366
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 3: Gotta be able to possess the football. And in this game,

367
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 3: the Chargers are punching them in the mouth up and down.

368
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 3: For about the first eight to ten minutes of this game.

369
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 3: The crowd was completely out of it. The play called

370
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 3: the plays at one point was seventeen to four. The

371
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 3: Chargers had run seventeen plays, the Texans had run four,

372
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 3: and we were almost to the end of the first quarter.

373
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 3: It was it was definitely a game you can see, Okay,

374
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 3: this is a horrball tight game. This is a horrball

375
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:14,959
Speaker 3: tight team. They want to go in here, they want

376
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 3: to be physical, they want to punch you in the mouth.

377
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,639
Speaker 3: Fifty yards on the ground's not gonna get it, and

378
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 3: three four eleven for third down. They couldn't stay on

379
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,919
Speaker 3: the field. I'm not sure what happened today, but justin Herbert,

380
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 3: zero rushing attempts, that's been part of the offense. We've

381
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 3: asked questions. I've asked questions to him and Jim Harball

382
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 3: face to face. Is that now a part of the game.

383
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 3: The ankle seems, you know, well now you seem healed,

384
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 3: and they openly, yes, that's gonna be part of the game.

385
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,679
Speaker 3: We're gonna add Herbert running, you know more in the offense.

386
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 3: And I just didn't see zero rushes today. It was

387
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 3: almost like the NC Championship, last game, when you're watching

388
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson not take off and use his legs.

389
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 2: This is part of the offense.

390
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 3: I don't know why coaches get into this part Martin

391
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 3: and get into playoff games and honestly forget how to

392
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 3: coach what they had. And then kudos to the Texas.

393
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 3: Took a while to warm up. Once you woke up.

394
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 3: You're the home team, you have the higher seed, You're

395
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,680
Speaker 3: supposed to win this game. Go out and don't feel

396
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 3: sorry for them because they didn't come. Prepare to not

397
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 3: doing anything.

398
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:12,919
Speaker 2: Do your thing.

399
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 4: C J.

400
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 3: Stroud, good game. I think two to eighty something to

401
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 3: touchdown in twenty two to touch in the pick. But

402
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,080
Speaker 3: you know there's still young. He's gonna learn. And congratulations

403
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 3: to doing what you do. You get a home game,

404
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 3: you win. Chargers I thought started really well and then

405
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 3: for some reason they just couldn't run the football. And

406
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 3: you can watch the Texas. They were selling out to

407
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 3: the run. And last quick point, I'm sorry and I

408
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 3: wrote this down. They need I've been saying all year,

409
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,200
Speaker 3: they need a guy, they need a wr one guy

410
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 3: there that a way. They were eleven and six this year. Okay,

411
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 3: you tell me they get a bona fide one guy

412
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 3: wide out. They can't get to thirteen wins next year,

413
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,439
Speaker 3: win the division, win.

414
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,719
Speaker 2: A playoff game, get a home playoff game, Yes they can.

415
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 3: They The team's good. They got a lot of players,

416
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 3: but that's one thing that was so evident today. They

417
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 3: just don't have that guy. Mcconkor would be a great

418
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 3: two and QJ would be a great three. Just saw

419
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 3: Derek Henry make a play in this Stealers Ravens game.

420
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,040

00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 8: their first drive are destroying the Steelers on the ground

426
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 8: and they're working on a six and a half minute drive.

427
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,920
Speaker 8: Now again, it's scoreless, five and a half minutes to go.

428
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 8: First quarter. Pittsburgh had the ball first and punted, and

429
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 8: right now the Pittsburgh Steelers on the ground are killing

430
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 8: it and in fact rushing as a team. And this

431
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,840

471
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 2: extra point through the upright seven nothing Baltimore with four

00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 2: thirty nine left in the first quarter. I'm Martin Weiss,

473
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 2: Vjy's at the Big Vanilla funny and I know we

474
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 2: do have a tweet from I believe it was Scratch

475
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:46,159
Speaker 2: Addict eighty six. He always m yeah. He asked so

476
00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 2: ahead of time, will we still be on?

477
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,439
Speaker 3: And I said yes, and he said glad to hear

478
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 3: you guys are safe and good. I said, thanks, Bru, thanks, yeah.

479
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 2: No, oh yeah yeah.

480
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 3: Shawn Khan eighty six, he always listen, he'd been. He

481
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 3: been with us since the beginning. Man, He's like Benning,

482
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 3: some of the muppa cats out there, been with since

483
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 3: to begin appreciate your brother, Do you have any other

484
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,560
Speaker 3: ones right now? Or let's keep on try, let's keep

485
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 3: on lapping.

486
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 2: So here's the thing this Chargers roster, to me, has

487
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 2: shown consistently that is not it's not fully developed yet.

488
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 2: Because a guy like lab McConkie getting one hundred ninety

489
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 2: seven yards receiving. It's not exactly like Nico Collins, who

490
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 2: was playing at an all pro level all year. He's

491
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 2: been in the year, been in the league for a

492
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 2: few years, he's got one hundred and twenty two. But

493
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 2: I do think, though, when you consider this Houston Texans team,

494
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,400
Speaker 2: which again I mean kind of stumbled out of the gate,

495
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 2: i'd say, in terms of what the expectations were for

496
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 2: some of the media members around, but still finished three

497
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,400
Speaker 2: games above five hundred and one to five home games.

498
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 3: Sexy super Bowl picked the you know trink.

499
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 2: Right, you know what I'm saying. I say it didn't

500
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 2: didn't necessarily win, you know, the twelve thirteen fourteen games.

501
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 2: People thought maybe, but ten and seven in your second year,

502
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 2: second years a quarterback, second year as a head coach,

503
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 2: and and you know, dealing with some injuries there, especially

504
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 2: in the receiver corps with Nico Collins missing time with

505
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 2: the hamstring. Tank Dell now is out right, Stefan Diggs

506
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 2: being out that they went to address something in the

507
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 2: offseason with Stefan Diggs then missed him. That's a major impact.

508
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 2: And to see them finish you know, the regular season

509
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,199
Speaker 2: at just where they did last year, even with losing

510
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 2: the additions, and then advanced the same way they did

511
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 2: last year, I think that's modes well for the future

512
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 2: for the Texans, both obviously short term because got to

513
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,160
Speaker 2: win to keep playing, but long term as well.

514
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, long term as well. Look, they took advantage of

515
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 3: a team that didn't play well today. You're supposed to

516
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,639
Speaker 3: do that in the playoffs. But even going into the season,

517
00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 3: my prediction on them was ten to eleven wins. I

518
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 3: didn't see this leap that people other people thought because

519
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 3: the AFC is tough. The AFC is tough, like that

520
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 3: last playoff spot came down to the last slate of

521
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 3: games on Sunday. It's tough to get into the playoffs

522
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 3: in AFC because it's a quarterback heavy and quarterback driven

523
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 3: with teams that have had their quarterback for a little

524
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 3: while now and some really really good and great and

525
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 3: legendary coaches are all in the AFC. So as far

526
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 3: as what it voted for the future, I'll wait for that.

527
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 3: I just think now their team that next week they'll

528
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,080
Speaker 3: going to someone else's stadium, and I'll judge them more

529
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,879
Speaker 3: off of that than what I saw today. They did

530
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 3: what they were supposed to win. They got the dub.

531
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 3: The roster you talk about with the charges I disagree

532
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,880
Speaker 3: with because once again, the roster to me, is great.

533
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 3: It's really it's great for what Harball, the coaching staff

534
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 3: and his style want to do and want to accomplish. Remember,

535
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 3: Dristley came out of nowhere five years in Seattle, and

536
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 3: he had more more targets too too, catches sixteen yards. Yeah,

537
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 3: but he's coming back from injury.

538
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 2: But that was the point. I make it like he

539
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 2: got hurt. He was out eman some time. But let's

540
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:44,639
Speaker 2: go ahead and talk to the guy who was in

541
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,960
Speaker 2: the game wide receiver Nico Collins of the Houston Texas Nico,

542
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,800

549
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 4: You know, we're going to take every four quarters to

550
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 4: go out there and just be us.

551
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 7: Man.

552
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:12,679
Speaker 4: I feel like everybody left it all out there all right,

553
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,199
Speaker 4: and you end up getting to win.

554
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 2: Nico Jmiko Ryan said after the game that c J.

555
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 2: Stroud fumbling the snap and then picking it up and

556
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 2: delivering that ball to Xavier Hutchinson that sparked the entire team.

557
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 2: What was it like before and after and what's it

558
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 2: like having a guy like CJ being your quarterback.

559
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 4: Man, it's amazing. It's amazing. Man. You see the type

560
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:33,640
Speaker 4: of the play.

00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 7: Maker he is.

562
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 4: You know, he's calm, closed, you know he never panicked,

563
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 4: and and he can make plays like that. You know,

564
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 4: we know no type of guys up in this man

565
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,280
Speaker 4: and the Scott's de limits for him. Man, I'm glad,

566
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 4: I'm glad he's my quarterback. He's our quarterback, man, and

567
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,040

Speaker 6: Man.

00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 4: But it's that spark man we needed that. You know,

Speaker 3: you're young coming in the league. You're in a tough AFC,

587
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 3: you got a young coach, young quarterback, you're a leader

588
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 3: on this squad. Now, just speak to that, especially moving

589
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,960

597
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 4: you know, jump them down on sideline making play. Man,

604
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 4: bigger moment than playing at the highest level and having

605
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 4: fun with it, you know, and just great for every

606
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,200
Speaker 4: opportunity I have every time I feel it on the

Speaker 4: field man, because in any moment could be gone, you know.

608
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 4: So I feel like just having fun and great for

609
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 4: every opportunity and making plays for the team.

610
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 2: Now it's something to talk about. Guy making plays. Dereck

611
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,359
Speaker 2: Stanley Junior is playing. I mean, you played out of

612
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 2: his mind. Oh my god, two pigs on Justin Herbert

613
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:29,160
Speaker 2: forced to fumble.

614
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 3: What's it like when you're shitting there on offense knowing, okay,

615
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 3: man and we just have to put the ball.

616
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,280
Speaker 2: You see him go out there and make a play

617
00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 2: and it's like, all right, well, not so bad man.

618
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 4: Man, it's the same man. He's nice, he's silent, killing man.

619
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 7: We know the type of guy he was.

620
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,080

Speaker 2: And Nigo will let you out on this one man.

635
00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,480

00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 3: and fire after one year where this thing is becoming

637
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 3: exactly it's crazy.

638
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 2: But you got a young guy over there.

641
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 3: being the leader of men. Speak to just what it

Speaker 4: Yeah, Man, I feel like just day once he came, Man,

647
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 4: when he coached, man, you know you feel like another player.

648
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 4: You know, he really doesn't feel like a head coach.

649
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 4: But you bring that energy, Man, you still bring that

650
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 4: that leadership that he was when he was a captain

651
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 4: here he was playing. You know, you still feel that

652

663
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 2: super big Michigan fans out with it. Remember this in

664
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 2: the locker room. Only one team beat Alabama twice in

665
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,120
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, and that's right, it's your University of

666
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 2: Michigan Wolverines. Nico. Congratulations again, best of luck.

667
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 4: Yes, Sair always man, thank you guys going man.

668
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 2: Thank you for coming on. That was awesome. That was awesome.

669
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 2: Put that I was about to.

670
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 9: Say, clip that. That needs to be clipped. The video,

671
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 9: the audio the whole day. We want the audio on YouTube,

672
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 9: and we want the video on Twitter. All right, the

673
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 9: audio on Twitter, the video on YouTube.

674
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 2: Let's go.

675
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,120
Speaker 3: That was awesome, man.

676
00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 2: Let's while we we just ended that on the college tip.

677
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 2: So let's go ahead and stay there real quick, all right?

678
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 2: Pence State lost, and Ian asked me this question, who's

679
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 2: the bigger loser from Notre Dame advancing? Is that James

680
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:15,040
Speaker 2: Franklin who still has not yet to win a big game,

681
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 2: you know, barely ever be the team in the top

682
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 2: five with three and seventeen? Was that Brian Kelly who

683
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 2: was told you know, I was told by Brian Kelly

684
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:24,719
Speaker 2: this was impossible at Notre Dame.

685
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, how about this? I'm not I can't do that, Ian,

686
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 3: I can't pick the biggest What was the loser? I

687
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 3: want to pick the biggest winner?

688
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 2: Can I do that? Is okay?

689
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 3: If I do that real quick, I do a curball,

690
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 3: because the biggest winner is mister Marcus Friedman, who when

691
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 3: this whole bracket came out, I told you, I said,

692
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 3: no one's talking about Nordre Dame. This team is physical,

693
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:50,160
Speaker 3: they play tough, and there's something different about Marcus Freeman

694
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 3: when he does the sideline, when he does the pressers like,

695
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 3: it's a different It's not last year and it's not

696
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 3: before the Northern Illinois lost. There's something different with this man,

697
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 3: and it's feeding into his team. So to me, listen, Franklin,

698
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 3: I'll be.

699
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 2: Honest with you. I'm not gonna put this. He won

700
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 2: two games to get here.

701
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 3: I don't think it's fair to like say, the guy

702
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 3: he won two ranked games, so, but he didn't beat

703
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 3: this team. This team was better and they made better

704
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 3: coaching decisions. I thought down to stretch and his quarterback

705
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 3: man just played. So Brian Kelly, he's out of this.

706
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 3: I guess to answer your question, it's it's probably James

707
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,760
Speaker 3: Franklin because he's still the current head coach of Penn State.

708
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 6: I just think, well, can I add something there though,

709
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 6: because the fact is it's not that he won those

710
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 6: two games, it's the fact that he's yet to win

711
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 6: a game where he's quote unquote supposed to lose, you know,

712
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 6: like he doesn't win the game like this was. This

713
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,840
Speaker 6: was a close game. I know he beats the teams

714
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 6: he's supposed to be exactly.

715
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 2: But he never does he come in as like an undo. Okay,

716
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 2: the team, Okay, right, you know what I'm saying, Like

717
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 2: he doesn't have the game where hard balls first win

718
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,440
Speaker 2: against Ohio State where he was massive underdog, comes in

719
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 2: oh He's not going to get that.

720
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 6: Tone like we Well, it's a lot to ask, of course,

721
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 6: but if you want to be the head coach of

722
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,720
Speaker 6: one of these blue blood programs like that, you need

723
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 6: to be able to, you know, pull one of those

724
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 6: out of here. But everyone, what the.

725
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 2: College Football Playoff to me has shown more than anything

726
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 2: is college football has always been a sport of the

727
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 2: haves and the have not right, and it's true even

728
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 2: still to this day. Now you can have eras and

729
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 2: you know what, I'd say that Arizona State, for example,

730
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 2: is sneakingly to moving on the way towards the half.

731
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 2: We've seen like Michigan State, remember under D'Antonio, Like they

732
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 2: had about a five six year stretch where they were

733
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 2: like competing to win the Big Ten every in that

734
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 2: stretch and then it kind of came and went. We'll

735
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,320
Speaker 2: see teams rise and fall, like Wisconsin with Barry Alvarez.

736
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 2: See teams rise and fall like that. But the reality is,

737
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 2: if you're Pants State, you're James Franklin. Got to know

738
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,000
Speaker 2: if I'm on one of those rises, is he going

739
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 2: to be able to get me over the hump? That's

740
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 2: the key, do you know what I mean? Like, can

741
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 2: he get me over the hump. We'll see last night.

742
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 2: I thought, well, not last night, two nights ago. I'm sorry.

743
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 2: I thought they were gonna win that game. At a point,

744
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 2: there's about a point in the third quarter, I said, like,

745
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 2: Nordon Dame's gonna blow this man and make me look bad.

746
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 2: I picked them to win the whole thing. I need

747
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 2: them to take their head out of their butt, right man?

748
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 2: Oh god?

749
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean James Franklin, he's the current coach,

750
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 3: Martin so but if you expecting him to beat these teams,

751
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 3: shame on you at this.

752
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 2: Point, Shame on you.

753
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 7: Let me go.

754
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 2: I pick. I thought Boise State might get him, you know.

755
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying they got one guy, and they

756
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:41,080
Speaker 3: locked him up. Right once they locked up? Gents, what

757
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 3: did Boise State have, guys? Nothing, I'm just saying nothing.

758
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 3: They had nothing to go to at all.

759
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 2: I'm just glad that, you know what. I'm not gonna

760
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 2: go there.

761
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,240
Speaker 3: That's petty, all right, So just real fast, because you

762
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 3: and I are the same within college football.

763
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 2: Do you even care who wins this game? Damn care?

764
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 2: Okay I do too, all right, just make it shut.

765
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 2: But we hate them both though, right, yeah, I hate

766
00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 2: them both. See, I'll explain to you in just a moment.

767
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 2: I can't lose. Why you can't. I can't lose. I

768
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 2: feel like I lose either way. All Right, all right, Bett,

Speaker 2: will it take to change that? This weekend? Martin White

774
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,240
Speaker 2: Vja Husky, Fox Sports Football Saturday.

775
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Martn White's v.

776
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:37,480
Speaker 2: Jay Husky on a Fox Sports Football Saturday is the

777
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,800
Speaker 2: referees are trying to ascertain whether or not Pat Firemouth

778
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 2: got a first down on the last completion. We'll let

779
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 2: you know, VJ. Yep. The reason why I can't lose

780
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:53,799
Speaker 2: in a Notre Dame, Ohio State national championship game. I'm

781
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 2: very interested to hear this because if I Stay wins

782
00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 2: the national championship, then they still will have lost to Michigan. True,

783
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 2: and what they will say in the postgame press conference is,

784
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 2: after that lost to Michigan, Ryan, what was it like?

785
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 2: How did your team rebound, So you will sit there

786
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 2: and be reminded, no matter in their highest moment, they

787
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 2: will be reminded of their lowest moment. Right and then

788
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 2: not only that, fast forward, you have to think about

789
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,359
Speaker 2: the long game in a game like this, all right,

790
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 2: this is college football rivalries. This is about long, cloaking

791
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:28,320
Speaker 2: dagger stuff.

792
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 3: Okay, Imagine Ohio State runs through the Big Ten again

793
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 3: until the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

794
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 2: Who loses to Michigan again. Now you have a team

795
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 2: that just won the national championship the year prior, who

796
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 2: will be ready to have pitchforks and torches and storm

797
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 2: the stadium because they will have lost to Michigan for

798
00:35:55,640 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 2: five years in a row. Do you see what I'm saying. Yeah,

799
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 2: that's what I'm saying. I can't lose if Notre Dame does, well,

800
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 2: that's what they did for running, and the rest of

801
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 2: the end of the rest of college football is finally

802
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:14,320
Speaker 2: gonna hold Notre Dame accountable for running from that September

803
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 2: rivalry they play in almost every album. I was up

804
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 2: on it. I used to be there every year, up

805
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 2: on it, man, and they ran. And now everybody's gonna

806
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 2: be like, well, no to Dame's scheduling this, that and

807
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 2: the third. You know what, come right back up to

808
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,879
Speaker 2: Ann Arbor and catch this all right? Anyway, the Denver

809
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,719
Speaker 2: Broncos and the Washington Commanders have a chance to make history, VJ.

810
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 2: Do they they? Well, there's only been three rookie quarterbacks

811
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 2: that have won their first career playoff start on the road.

812
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels and Bo Nicks can join that exclusive club.

813
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:56,319
Speaker 2: We'll talk about the Chargers and the Buccaneers game at

814
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,400
Speaker 2: about about forty minutes, But right now, VJ, what do

815
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 2: do you think? What have to happen? Obviously Buffalo is

816
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 2: prohibitive favoriteier. What would have to happen for Denver to make.

817
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 3: This a game to have a shot here, your rookie

818
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 3: quarterback has to play bonkers. He's got to play out

819
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:16,839
Speaker 3: of his mind. He does like you can't high bow

820
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 3: knicks in this game. It's gonna be on the road.

821
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,759
Speaker 3: It's gonna be raucus. Being a Dolphin fan, I've grown

822
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 3: up watching the Buffalo Bills in January.

823
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 2: They're hard to beat there.

824
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 3: I don't care how good that team is, or how

825
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,400
Speaker 3: great it is, or how average it is, or if

826
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 3: they sneaking a playff.

827
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. Guys.

828
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 3: It's hard to go to Orchard Park in western New

829
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 3: York and play the Buffalo Bills up there. And I

830
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 3: think Sean Payton has the cachet as a head coach

831
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 3: to get it done. I think they got some really

832
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:44,560
Speaker 3: really great players and great pieces and certain hansa all

833
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 3: pro shut down corner, so he's gonna be able to

834
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 3: probably try to take away the best weapon. I think

835
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,440
Speaker 3: it's him on Cooper all game long. That's how I mean.

836
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 3: If I'm coaching the Broncos, that's what we're doing, and

837
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,200
Speaker 3: putting my best guy or your best guy all down

838
00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 3: care for slot outside inside, you stick with this guy

839
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 3: all game long. And also they're gonna have to run

840
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 3: the football, which means they're gonna have to win time

841
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 3: of possession, and it's one of the most overrated stats

842
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 3: when you look at the team stat box when you're

843
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:14,240
Speaker 3: looking at a box sheet. But tomorrow they must hold

844
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,359
Speaker 3: the football as long as they possibly can. But they

845
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 3: got to score touchdowns. They cannot kick field goals. And

846
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 3: one last thing, you have to spy Josh Allen all

847
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 3: game long. And I hope they coach their guys don't

848
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 3: go for the pump fate because your brother behind you

849
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,120
Speaker 3: has that part cover. Trust me, he don't see nobody open.

850
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:38,840
Speaker 3: Trust your brothers there. You just keep going forward and get.

851
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 2: This man down.

852
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 3: If they let Josh Allen make too many plays, they're

853
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 3: gonna get blown out by twenty points or more. And

854
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 3: their quarterback, the rookie quarterback bow niggas got to really

855
00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 3: play well. They gotta run the football.

856
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:48,880
Speaker 2: I agree, he's got to play better, at least than

857
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 2: he did against Cincinnati because they had several opportunities to

858
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 2: win that game that he missed. He had an open

859
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 2: receiver and late in the fourth quarter that would have

860
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 2: been at least a big chunk gain that that didn't

861
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:07,439
Speaker 2: end up coming truishing and playing overtime that didn't work

862
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:11,920
Speaker 2: out either. Derrick Henry is slicing through the Pittsburgh Steelers

863
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 2: and defense right now, hounding. I'm trying to see how

864
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,959
Speaker 2: many yards he has because he has been just running.

865
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 2: At least he got fifty one yards on five carries,

866
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 2: and that looks exactly what it looks like, is it

867
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 2: with a long and thirty four It looks like he's

868
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 2: averaging ten yards to carry as he's just in.

869
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:32,280
Speaker 3: Regular playoff for him. In the Pittsburgh Steelers linebackers absent

870
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 3: making business decisions, plus the offensive lines playing great. When

871
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 3: you see that play right there, just look at them

872
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,759
Speaker 3: movement against their will. Watch the push on the line.

873
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 3: Once you can push your opponent out of the way

874
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 3: left or right, you're running back gets a chance to

875
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 3: see what's going on. Pick a hole and go, or

876
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,840
Speaker 3: you run RPO like they just tried there with l Jackson.

877
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:51,560
Speaker 2: You get nothing.

878
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:53,279
Speaker 3: This is a good Steller defense. Look, we're in the

879
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 3: second quarter. It's only seven to nothing. That's why I

880
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,279
Speaker 3: think the Steelers can cover. But you know, just turn

881
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 3: the hand of Derek Henry twenty five times night. Let's

882
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 3: not make this hard. This guy just walk around with

883
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 3: a ten point win.

884
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,480
Speaker 2: The difference between the college football games is one guy said,

885
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 2: let's not make this hard, and the other guy said,

886
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 2: wait a minute, that's the only way I know how

887
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,920
Speaker 2: to do it. One loss one to one. Who do

888
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:12,600
Speaker 2: you think did.

889
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 1: Don't listen the Fox Sports radio radio.

890
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 2: That's right, and we're broadcasting law from an entire rack

895
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,800
Speaker 2: It's the way that tire buying should be. VJ.

896
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:34,080
Speaker 6: So.

897
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:36,839
Speaker 2: I don't know about you, but my jaw dropped as

898
00:40:36,880 --> 00:40:39,760
Speaker 2: I saw Quinn Yewers drop back to pass get stripped

899
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 2: backed by Jack Sawyer, who his biggest let me not

900
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,399
Speaker 2: be shady, I was let to say his biggest play

901
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 2: this year was stopping Jason Levant from getting in the

902
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:51,920
Speaker 2: flag stolen from him. Yeah, by Jason was it was

903
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 2: his biggest pluck.

904
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:57,359
Speaker 3: But you saw Jack Sawyer really not saving the day,

905
00:40:57,400 --> 00:40:58,959
Speaker 3: but make putting the game out of reach.

906
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,399
Speaker 2: Whatever Axis and their ability to try to come back.

907
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 2: When Ye wears two and eighty three yards, two touchdowns

908
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 2: and an interception, Jayden Blue had both of the touchdowns

909
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 2: for Texas. But Ohio State now advances to play Notre Dame,

910
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 2: who that of course, beat Penn State in a game

911
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:21,399
Speaker 2: in which felt like Marcus Freeman decided, I just saw

912
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,760
Speaker 2: what Penn State did. I'm not gonna do that because

913
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,400
Speaker 2: that just lost them the game. Now, I didn't have

914
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:32,480
Speaker 2: a problem with James Franklin going for the win with

915
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 2: thirty three seconds left and three timeouts, twenty five yards

916
00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 2: thirty yards out of field goal range. But the problem

917
00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 2: I had with it was it seemed like he wasn't

918
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 2: gonna go for the win until they ran for a

919
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,360
Speaker 2: first down on first and ten. Yeah, then he was like,

920
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,480
Speaker 2: wait a minute, Oh, let's go, let's go, let's go.

921
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 2: That should be a decision I feel made before that play.

922
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,919
Speaker 3: I'm not sure if you make that decision before that play.

923
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,360
Speaker 3: But once again, here's Frankly making a decision game that

924
00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:02,440
Speaker 3: money could point to and say probably calls him the game.

925
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 3: I'm not sure I'll do that. What I will do, though,

926
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 3: is that I'm a big guy with body language. I'm

927
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:10,120
Speaker 3: a big guy about just facial expressions, the way people

928
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,520
Speaker 3: present themselves physically, because a lot of people think they

929
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 3: can hide themselves by their words, and you can't. All

930
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 3: you gotta do is just use your eyes and watch

931
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 3: what you see. And James Franklin, as that fourth quarter's going,

932
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 3: he did he not look more nervous and nervous and

933
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 3: nervous to you guys, because he damn sure did to me.

934
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:26,719
Speaker 3: So a point that when they're late in the game,

935
00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:28,479
Speaker 3: they call a time out He's literally on the field

936
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:30,480
Speaker 3: with his arms class with his thumb in his mouth,

937
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 3: trying to bite his nail, and the assistance next to

938
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 3: him saying something to him. Now, I'm not sure if

939
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:36,839
Speaker 3: he's just locked in and he's trying to figure out

940
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 3: what he's gonna do and dah da da. But then

941
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 3: he assistant had the pat him like, hey, do you

942
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 3: like do you hear me? And he looks at it

943
00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:43,759
Speaker 3: like Shakespead, like yeah, yeah, I got you. It Just

944
00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:45,319
Speaker 3: I'm like, right there, I look at go They're gonna

945
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 3: lose this game. He's just not there. You look at

946
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 3: Marcus Freeman. Everything's under control. Everybody's communicating, they're they're leaning in,

947
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 3: they're listening to each other, they're pointing, they're yelling out.

948
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 3: They're doing what you see coaches do coming down this

949
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 3: stretch for a chance to go play for the national champions.

950
00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 3: Three years ago, you and I sat in that studio

951
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:04,719
Speaker 3: across the hall of the Old One and yelled at

952
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 3: Jim Harball the end of the TCU game.

953
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 2: What did that look like?

954
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 3: We are his own dad, His own father is in

955
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,839
Speaker 3: the bleacher saying, Jim, you can read Jim, what are

956
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:20,799
Speaker 3: you doing the clock's ticking and he's really sitting there

957
00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 3: like frozen. I saw that, and they're going to lose

958
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:27,240
Speaker 3: that game. I saw that last night with James Franklin.

959
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,960
Speaker 3: He's just mentally, he's just not that coach that can

960
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:34,120
Speaker 3: just keep calm, stay focused, stay locked in, make the

961
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:34,800
Speaker 3: right decisions.

962
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:35,440
Speaker 2: And I agree with you.

963
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,279
Speaker 3: I thought he thought, okay, I'll play. I would have

964
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 3: just played for overtime. That's what I would have done.

965
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have tried to go for that. That's a

966
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 3: long length of the field, even a set of four

967
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:44,960
Speaker 3: field goal Have.

968
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 2: You been moving the ball off game long at will?

969
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:47,360
Speaker 4: No?

970
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 3: So what makes you think you're gonna do it right now?

971
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:52,399
Speaker 3: Your quarterback is throwing the ball all over the damn

972
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 3: field to the wrong helmet. Play for overtime. You're safe

973
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:57,840
Speaker 3: right now. But to try to go for it, and

974
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 3: then what ends up happening. His quarterback does what throws

975
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:04,440
Speaker 3: another pick and it sets Notre Dame up for the

976
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 3: winning That's how you walk off and lose. I just

977
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,960
Speaker 3: think that this is just who he is. He when

978
00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 3: it comes down to the clutch man, he just he

979
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,440
Speaker 3: can't out coach his opponent. And that's and Marcus Freeman

980
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:17,480
Speaker 3: just out coached him, even though I thought there were

981
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 3: portions of the game. Look at the game, Singleton ad,

982
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 3: look at the game that kid had.

983
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:23,839
Speaker 2: You can't waste that. You can't waste that. But why

984
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,400
Speaker 2: did he have more carries? Why did he have more touches?

985
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 2: That's coaching.

986
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 3: When you got a kid that hot, making guys missing

987
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:31,319
Speaker 3: the open field er in the backfield, turning the two

988
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:33,239
Speaker 3: yard loss into an eight yard game, which he did

989
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 3: twice two nights ago, you got to feed that game.

990
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 2: The number one thing that was just a coaching disaster

991
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 2: is I can understand your wide receivers not having a

992
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 2: catch in the first half, but what are you doing

993
00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,800
Speaker 2: at halftime? Yeah, if you don't look at the box

994
00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 2: and be like, oh wait a minute, we haven't completed

995
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:52,840
Speaker 2: a pass longer than fifteen yards. Know what we need

996
00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:54,279
Speaker 2: to do. Let's open it up a bit.

997
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 3: Let's open it up and throw the ball so and

998
00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:58,480
Speaker 3: one through the air for pen State.

999
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:00,839
Speaker 2: By the way, looking at just fields in the game

1000
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:06,040
Speaker 2: right now for Pittsburgh, I thought Mike Tomlin was blowing

1001
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 2: smoke when he's because he did kind of allude that

1002
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 2: justin fields and Russell Wilson would play a little bit

1003
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:13,600
Speaker 2: in this game, but he also alluded to that all

1004
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 2: damn year, bad plan, bad plan, bad plan, horrible plan.

1005
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:19,279
Speaker 3: I don't have a problem. I do you do not

1006
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:22,359
Speaker 3: in a playoff game at this point? This, Oh my god,

1007
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 3: don't make me go off on this right now. And

1008
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 3: at this point and then look at the play they call,

1009
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:28,680
Speaker 3: oh a roll out. Wow, we know he's gonna do

1010
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 3: the read option read excuse me? A read option? All right,

1011
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 3: my bad? I saw the back into the play. But

1012
00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 3: why if you haven't been playing him, why are you

1013
00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:38,879
Speaker 3: gonna do this and throw You think this is gonna

1014
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 3: fool Baltimore. You think this is gonna do something for you.

1015
00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:41,759
Speaker 2: It's not.

1016
00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:43,879
Speaker 3: It just means that this is kind of your way

1017
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,480
Speaker 3: showing us you don't have faithit. Russell Wilson, actually go

1018
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,920
Speaker 3: win this game for you. Counterpoint, why should he look

1019
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 3: at the last five games because you're trying to make

1020
00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:53,400
Speaker 3: us feel like that you did though, but that was.

1021
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,359
Speaker 2: Five Like, look at the last five games and tell

1022
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 2: me why you shouldn't put justin fields out there for

1023
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,440
Speaker 2: a player three like man.

1024
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:02,680
Speaker 3: Because if this is the same offense that kids that

1025
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,000
Speaker 3: kids confidence is look at me like they just showed

1026
00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 3: him on the sideline. That kid's confidence is shot. That's

1027
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:09,960
Speaker 3: why you can't put him in at this point. You

1028
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,439
Speaker 3: put you benched him when he was winning. He wasn't

1029
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:15,160
Speaker 3: losing games, he wasn't throwing games away. They were winning,

1030
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,799
Speaker 3: and you bitched him. Yeah, and may take a twelve

1031
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 3: to thirteen weeks fourth and now kind of come to fruition.

1032
00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:21,439
Speaker 2: Just look at this kid's face.

1033
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 3: His confidence is gone, and you're gonna throw him in

1034
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:25,839
Speaker 3: a playoff game and try to run a regal player.

1035
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 2: You hear the thing that Arthur Smith say about him.

1036
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 2: I don't know why his confidence will be going. They

1037
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:33,440
Speaker 2: talk highly about them. They talk highly about him at

1038
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:36,120
Speaker 2: every single turn. But let's turn back to college football,

1039
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 2: because here's the thing. Here's the National championship game is set.

1040
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:44,279
Speaker 2: It's gonna be Ohio State versus Notre Dame. Here's the

1041
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:48,479
Speaker 2: thing that I simply don't understand. The script to beat

1042
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:54,279
Speaker 2: Ohio State was on display Saturday n An Arbor that

1043
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:58,040
Speaker 2: Saturday after Thanksgiving. It was on display, came and when

1044
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:02,839
Speaker 2: Texas ran the ball successful they were getting five six

1045
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:06,760
Speaker 2: yards of carry. Oftentimes, especially in the second half, Ohio

1046
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 2: State is a team that, to me shown until they

1047
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,799
Speaker 2: show me they can stop to run consistently, I will

1048
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:16,960
Speaker 2: not allo. Oh my goodness, it's just gonna be OPI anyway,

1049
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,719
Speaker 2: Until they show me that they're gonna be able to

1050
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:24,880
Speaker 2: stop the run consistently, I will then I'll believe it.

1051
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 2: Here is the other thing, though, when Notre Dame showed

1052
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:31,800
Speaker 2: me in the last vestiges of that fourth quarter and

1053
00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:35,320
Speaker 2: in overtime of that game, is they're not afraid to

1054
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,600
Speaker 2: run the ball. In fact, we'd prefer to run the ball.

1055
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,200
Speaker 2: I'd rather not rather than a throw. Because the only

1056
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,839
Speaker 2: throw he had in that last drive was a play

1057
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:46,840
Speaker 2: he had a run pass option and saw that the

1058
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 2: other guy was literally four yards behind the line of

1059
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 2: the first down, had to throw it like had to

1060
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 2: throw it because there was two guys in between them.

1061
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:57,880
Speaker 2: I believe that Notre Dame is gonna be able to

1062
00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 2: offensively establish the line of scrimmage on Ohio State, move

1063
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:05,879
Speaker 2: those guys and run the rock both quarterback and running back.

1064
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:08,560
Speaker 2: That's gonna be the difference, because Ohio State is going

1065
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:10,440
Speaker 2: to want to try to move the ball, throw the

1066
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 2: ball a ton, and then if they get behind, that's

1067
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 2: gonna be trouble because again, like you just said, third

1068
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 2: down conversions, you don't know the name US converts them.

1069
00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:20,720
Speaker 3: Oh, they're absolutely doing that. One of the best defense.

1070
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,120
Speaker 3: Their defense is twelfth in the nation. And third down

1071
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 3: conversion rate what they allow, so they convert them over

1072
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,520
Speaker 3: forty percent and they allow under thirty percent as far as.

1073
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:30,319
Speaker 2: Converted to get them.

1074
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 3: But a few things about that game, and just even

1075
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 3: to bounce back to Texas, and you mentioned running the football,

1076
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:36,720
Speaker 3: they average two yards of carry.

1077
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:37,799
Speaker 2: They ran the ball early.

1078
00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:40,800
Speaker 3: But if something happens schematically where they changed the scheme

1079
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,800
Speaker 3: or maybe the running plays that they were calling and

1080
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 3: things just change, they average two yards twenty eight attempts

1081
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 3: man for fifty eight yards. It's definitely not going to

1082
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:50,480
Speaker 3: get it done. Ohio they didn't do any better. They

1083
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:51,920
Speaker 3: only ran for eighty some yards themselves.

1084
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:53,480
Speaker 2: They weren't. They weren't world beaters.

1085
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 3: What Nordon Dame has in this advantage over this game

1086
00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 3: is their secondary and their defense. And I think that

1087
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 3: we'll see that. You saw it even with texas As secondary.

1088
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:07,200
Speaker 3: Texas defense, even though you know, Ohio State throws almost

1089
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 3: three hundred yards, but it wasn't the big We didn't

1090
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:10,080
Speaker 3: see JEREMYH.

1091
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:10,920
Speaker 2: Smith go off like.

1092
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,040
Speaker 3: He didn't treat him like he treated Oregon. He didn't

1093
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 3: treat him like he treated Yeah, yeah, yeah, well oh

1094
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:18,920
Speaker 3: yeah exactly like they say something about his mom at

1095
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:20,320
Speaker 3: the park. You know what I'm saying. He had his

1096
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:21,279
Speaker 3: three older brothers with him.

1097
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,880
Speaker 2: He beat them like that. But my dad said he

1098
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:25,359
Speaker 2: beat him like he stole something from church.

1099
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:29,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, your dad had a lot of cool sayings that

1100
00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 3: I would love to sit and have a beer with

1101
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:35,520
Speaker 3: that guy. But it's Notre Dame has the defense and

1102
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,440
Speaker 3: secondary to hold this offense down. I'm gonna put this

1103
00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:40,759
Speaker 3: game just on one guy. I got one last chance.

1104
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:42,879
Speaker 3: Well I've proved it twice, but I would love three.

1105
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:45,919
Speaker 3: Will Howard. Will Howard is the key to this game

1106
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,920
Speaker 3: if the Norre Dame defense can actually confuse him and

1107
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 3: put pressure up the middle, which he does not like,

1108
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 3: which Michigan was able to do. As Martin said, we

1109
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,200
Speaker 3: gave you guys the blueprint. We gave everybody the blueprint.

1110
00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 3: Stop to run up the middle, apply pressure up the middle.

1111
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,760
Speaker 3: He does not like to move his feet east and west.

1112
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 3: He likes to step up in the pocket. Put the

1113
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,040
Speaker 3: tape on and Nordre Dame has the secondary guys to

1114
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,960
Speaker 3: be able. I think to like Jeremi Smith is tremendous,

1115
00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:12,439
Speaker 3: but he's not gonna just go off against these guys.

1116
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:14,120
Speaker 3: I think that's what gives them a chance. And then

1117
00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:17,279
Speaker 3: to your point too, running the football and now that

1118
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:19,920
Speaker 3: you have a quarterback who can run the football two,

1119
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,719
Speaker 3: that gives it a dual threat. Look, he threw for

1120
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:24,439
Speaker 3: over two hundred yards and we didn't see that coming.

1121
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 3: He's only averaging I think like one sixty nine a

1122
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:28,920
Speaker 3: game for the year. He didn't throw the ball well

1123
00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 3: at all, but was able to do it against Penn

1124
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 3: State and moved the ball. I think that you get

1125
00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 3: the ball to the tight end, you get the ball

1126
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:38,960
Speaker 3: to your running backs. Like you said, Jeremiah Love run

1127
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:43,799
Speaker 3: the football, but defensively, you've got to confuse and make

1128
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,719
Speaker 3: Will Howard uncomfortable. And for the last shot of the year,

1129
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:49,560
Speaker 3: as I've been telling you guys all ye long, when

1130
00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:52,479
Speaker 3: the game is in his hands and then they needed

1131
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:54,239
Speaker 3: the most and it's an important game, he'll give the

1132
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 3: game away. And I think that's how Nordre Dame is

1133
00:50:56,200 --> 00:51:00,360
Speaker 3: gonna win this game. Also, both the as JD about this.

1134
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 7: J D.

1135
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:04,640
Speaker 3: Pakel On three college football writer who also does some

1136
00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 3: college football work over here. Fox were traded to ask

1137
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:10,200
Speaker 3: you about this in about an hour. But uh, Quinn

1138
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,840
Speaker 3: Ewers said it before the game. He's going to the NFL.

1139
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:17,400
Speaker 3: How were you, buddy, Yeah, I'd be checking out meal plans,

1140
00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:21,239
Speaker 3: you know, seeing talking to FAFSA, seeing if I can't

1141
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:22,080
Speaker 3: get another year there.

1142
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:24,359
Speaker 2: I never saw it in him. And remember guys, when

1143
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:27,160
Speaker 2: when when Arch subbed in for him, You remember the

1144
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:28,520
Speaker 2: show we did. I threw it out there.

1145
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:31,239
Speaker 3: I'm like, hey, do we got a quarterback? You know, dude,

1146
00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:32,799
Speaker 3: do we talk about this a little bit right there?

1147
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:35,200
Speaker 3: Gave me a three touches, three passive touchdowns. He had

1148
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 3: two rushing touchdown. One was like a sixty two yard

1149
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:41,080
Speaker 3: sprint right up the middle. Like I never thought Quinn

1150
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:44,759
Speaker 3: was that great. I just in Arch, I'm telling you,

1151
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:46,200
Speaker 3: And you saw that. Had Arch in the game like

1152
00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:48,279
Speaker 3: they put it, man, I think Arch might have won

1153
00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:50,600
Speaker 3: that game. He might have been interesting to see if

1154
00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:52,920
Speaker 3: they had put him in on that last play. Because

1155
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:55,720
Speaker 3: there's nothing I love more as a football fan watching

1156
00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:57,680
Speaker 3: guys on the one yard line throw the ball nine

1157
00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:58,440
Speaker 3: yards backwards.

1158
00:51:58,480 --> 00:51:59,160
Speaker 2: To get one.

1159
00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:01,520
Speaker 1: Texas.

1160
00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:03,839
Speaker 3: Another thing about the Ohio State Texas game two guys,

1161
00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:06,080
Speaker 3: that third down thing I told you I love. Ohio

1162
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:08,800
Speaker 3: State was three and ten. Texas are five and eleven.

1163
00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:11,640
Speaker 3: They converted enough that this game is twenty one to fourteen.

1164
00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:14,760
Speaker 3: They're they're walking into the end zone and then someone

1165
00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 3: just doesn't block a blitzing backer from the outside.

1166
00:52:17,960 --> 00:52:20,640
Speaker 2: He hits your quarterback, ball bounces right up in his hands.

1167
00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:24,279
Speaker 2: He's already in full sprint game set match. You know

1168
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:28,360
Speaker 2: why you like third down conversions so much. It's essentially

1169
00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:29,840
Speaker 2: the same thing as a turnover.

1170
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 3: If you can force and you know how I feel

1171
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:34,040
Speaker 3: about turn you can for you know, say, if you

1172
00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:36,359
Speaker 3: force a third down stop, man, right, if you four

1173
00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:40,080
Speaker 3: third down stop, then it's I mean the other team

1174
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 3: is literally giving the ball back team.

1175
00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:42,000
Speaker 5: You know what.

1176
00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:44,360
Speaker 3: I've heard a coach say that he counts three and

1177
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:47,839
Speaker 3: outs as as as like half a turnover. Yeah, half

1178
00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:49,760
Speaker 3: of three and out to me is half a turnover

1179
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:51,759
Speaker 3: and my DEFENSI guys only got to play three plays

1180
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:52,719
Speaker 3: and we get the ball right back.

1181
00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 2: You basically turn the ball back.

1182
00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:57,239
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I'm gonna peel the the what does it peel?

1183
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 3: The onion, pull the curtain back. That's what I'm gonna

1184
00:52:59,520 --> 00:52:59,759
Speaker 3: pull the.

1185
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 2: Cart peel the curtain back on the end. This is

1186
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 2: what I look for in football teams. I'm evaluating them

1187
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:09,279
Speaker 2: in season. Right, third down third down conversion percentage, right,

1188
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:10,840
Speaker 2: and it's like, how many do you get to?

1189
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,520
Speaker 3: Like look at both the attempts and you know, completions forever.

1190
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:17,279
Speaker 3: How many third downs do you get to? How many

1191
00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:17,840
Speaker 3: do you convert?

1192
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,560
Speaker 2: Because if your third down conversion percentage is forty five

1193
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,840
Speaker 2: percent but you only have six third downs and you

1194
00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 2: score forty points, I'm not gonna have a big problem

1195
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:27,440
Speaker 2: with your offense because you're getting first.

1196
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 3: Say your first and second down players are chunk yards.

1197
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:33,360
Speaker 2: Now, if you're having chunk yards eighteen first downs and

1198
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,279
Speaker 2: you get twelve of them, it's like, okay, well your

1199
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:37,719
Speaker 2: percentages better than fifty percent, But that's a lot of

1200
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:41,439
Speaker 2: third downs to get to your offense. May maybe what's

1201
00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:45,800
Speaker 2: diviticall are you getting penalties? Are you getting negative plays?

1202
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,880
Speaker 2: Like why is that the case? You know about fifteen

1203
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 2: third downs? Where I like teams to be at the

1204
00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:54,240
Speaker 2: other thing, I look at miss field goals, that's another turnover.

1205
00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:57,440
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, all right, so missfield goals is another turnover

1206
00:53:57,560 --> 00:54:01,200
Speaker 2: and then like yardage off punch? How good are they

1207
00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:04,360
Speaker 2: punching the ball? This game is mostly I read this

1208
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:09,399
Speaker 2: on explained like basically is a reddit subreddit that said,

1209
00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:12,480
Speaker 2: explain football if you're five expand American football people who

1210
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:14,880
Speaker 2: never heard of it, and they explained it as a

1211
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,759
Speaker 2: big game of tug of war in which you get

1212
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:20,520
Speaker 2: six points whether one team falls into the end zone.

1213
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:23,080
Speaker 2: Ever since then changed my entire thought process. Happening the

1214
00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:23,719
Speaker 2: ball is everything.

1215
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:25,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, penalty is a big too, And like I said, Texas,

1216
00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:27,239
Speaker 3: they could have win his game. O highest they had

1217
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 3: nine penalties last night for seventy five yards. Like, you

1218
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:31,360
Speaker 3: gotta win. You gotta win this game, man, this is

1219
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,160
Speaker 3: all start this on, start all the way.

1220
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:37,359
Speaker 2: Remember what I told you last year. I didn't this year.

1221
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:39,200
Speaker 2: I thought the last year I was like, look at

1222
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:41,759
Speaker 2: sark record in big games. Then he ended up going

1223
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:44,920
Speaker 2: to the final four last year. So four race, but

1224
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:48,839
Speaker 2: final four back to back as he is, Oh yeah,

1225
00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:51,320
Speaker 2: it's Sark is going on.

1226
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:54,959
Speaker 3: He could be he could be James Franklin. Guys, like, listen,

1227
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 3: he got to the final four, right, he got to

1228
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:58,000
Speaker 3: the Final four last year.

1229
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:00,000
Speaker 2: He could be James. He could be a better James Franklin.

1230
00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:01,760
Speaker 6: We've seen him beat teams like Alabama.

1231
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:03,520
Speaker 2: I was about to say, I don't think James Franklin

1232
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:05,400
Speaker 2: had ever beat Alabama. He beat Alabama just like.

1233

1245
00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:50,200

1254
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:19,719
Speaker 2: the downtime. He ain't doing it now. Speaking of the

1289
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:57,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, I got you a quick tweet. Look and

1290
00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 3: this is really cool though, man from Brendan Brody. He's

1291
00:57:59,880 --> 00:58:02,440
Speaker 3: the great listener, always that. Brennan at Underscore B eight

1292
00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 3: one says at Martin Wis's at Big Vanilla, funny much

1293
00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:10,040
Speaker 3: loved to Fox Sports Radio and who are affected by

1294
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:12,920
Speaker 3: the LA wildfires. Martin and I both had to evacuate

1295
00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:16,240
Speaker 3: from where we live and go take cover. I say,

1296
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,280
Speaker 3: hunker down somewhere else until we can get back home.

1297
00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:21,000
Speaker 3: But he says, now for my sports take, I gotta

1298
00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:23,919
Speaker 3: act Tom Brady, what do you think in firing ap

1299
00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:27,640
Speaker 3: and and to LESCo? These two drafted arguably the best

1300
00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:31,640
Speaker 3: tight end in the NFL, and the defense was decent end.

1301
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:34,720
Speaker 2: Quote Martin, I think they competed under Antonio Pierce. I

1302
00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:35,520
Speaker 2: think they tried.

1303
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:36,360
Speaker 1: They tried.

1304
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:39,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, they did compete an get like that was ever

1305
00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:44,480
Speaker 2: like For example, last year we saw the Chargers lose

1306
00:58:44,560 --> 00:58:49,040
Speaker 2: a game sixty three to twenty one and again on

1307
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:52,600
Speaker 2: Thursday night where they the twenty one points they got

1308
00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:56,400
Speaker 2: after there was not enough players on the bench to

1309
00:58:56,520 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 2: sub in for starters, like the Raiders were pulling fans

1310
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:03,160
Speaker 2: out of this stands to play left tackle running by

1311
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:04,480
Speaker 2: the end of that. Yeah, you're right, you know, right,

1312
00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:06,880
Speaker 2: He's like, I got I got the right tackle, I

1313
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:09,960
Speaker 2: got him, I got it five dollars. You know that's

1314
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:12,680
Speaker 2: how Down said. What right? Yeah, it was just you know,

1315
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:15,760
Speaker 2: it's just a total embarrassment that never happened for this

1316
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:19,640
Speaker 2: generation's Raiders, this year's Raiders, I will say Antonio Pears,

1317
00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:23,560
Speaker 2: in my opinion, was d O a dead on arrival

1318
00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:26,160
Speaker 2: as soon as he got the job. And it really

1319
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:28,680
Speaker 2: it wasn't as soon as he got the job. It

1320
00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:31,440
Speaker 2: was as soon as Tom Brady bought the team. You

1321
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:35,200
Speaker 2: don't spend all that money on something. Even though Brady

1322
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:39,200
Speaker 2: got a sweetheart deal. Guess what, it's still a sweetheart

1323
00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 2: deal on a billion is still a whole hell of

1324
00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:43,840
Speaker 2: a lot of millions. Yeah right, You don't spend all

1325
00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:46,760
Speaker 2: that money to keep things the same. No, it's the.

1326
00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:49,880
Speaker 3: Raiders deal, Brendan. I don't know, man, I don't. I

1327
00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:51,680
Speaker 3: don't have an answer for you. And I know I

1328
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:53,360
Speaker 3: got an answer for every damn thing, but I don't

1329
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:54,600
Speaker 3: have an answer for this one. I don't know where

1330
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:56,680
Speaker 3: they go, I don't know what they do. They don't

1331
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:58,400
Speaker 3: have the number one picks and they're not gonna get

1332
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:00,560
Speaker 3: your door, and you know, depending upon the Titans do.

1333
01:00:00,640 --> 01:00:02,640
Speaker 3: Because I just don't think his dad wants him playing

1334
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:05,520
Speaker 3: in Tennessee. That's another conversation for another show. But I

1335
01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:08,440
Speaker 3: have no idea what's going on there, brother, So I

1336
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:10,920
Speaker 3: would just take Martin's answer and run with it. Another one,

1337
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:14,080
Speaker 3: just really fast. You know, our got Romiro, little Chewy

1362
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:08,160
Speaker 2: is now reaching arctic freezing temperatures to the point where

1363
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:11,480

01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:14,600

Speaker 2: better term, for one AFC Nors team. But first we'll

1366
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:19,920
Speaker 2: go to Steve de Seger for everything trending in the

1367
01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 2: world of sports, including a stafty wild card butt whooping.

1368
01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:23,480
Speaker 7: Yeah.

1369
01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 8: You cannot overemphasize how dominant that first half was for

1370
01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:29,880
Speaker 8: the Ravens in Baltimore tonight. It is twenty one to

1371
01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:33,320
Speaker 8: nothing over the Steelers at the break. Nineteen first downs

1372
01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:36,680
Speaker 8: to two in the first half for the Ravens. This

1373
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:39,600
Speaker 8: was the Pittsburgh offense in the first half. Punted on

1374
01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:42,080
Speaker 8: your first four drives and then took a knee in

1375
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:42,840
Speaker 8: the first half.

1376
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:44,640
Speaker 2: Wow, that's your highlight.

1377
01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:49,520
Speaker 8: Derrick Henry thirteen carries one hundred yards rushing and a

1378
01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 8: touchdown in the first half Lamar Jackson two TD passes.

1379
01:01:54,480 --> 01:01:55,360
Speaker 8: These are the three.

1380
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:56,920
Speaker 2: Scoring drives for Baltimore.

1381
01:01:57,320 --> 01:02:01,560
Speaker 8: Thirteen plays ninety five yards over seven minutes, then on

1382
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:05,200
Speaker 8: Derrick Henry's touchdown drive and eight yard CD to finish it,

1383
01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:09,400
Speaker 8: thirteen plays eighty five yards nearly eight minute drive, and

1384
01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:13,760

Speaker 8: all season through four today and was sacked four times

1395
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:48,640
Speaker 8: and yes, was under constant pressure. In fact, he was

1396
01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 8: literally statistically pressured on half of his dropbacks and eleven

1397
01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:56,960
Speaker 8: different times today. Herbert was under pressure in less than

1398
01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:00,520

Speaker 8: No Lakers home game tonight, No Clippers home game tonight

1404
01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:19,200

Speaker 2: A comeback at South Carolina.

1415
01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 8: And this college football note from Fox's Bruce Feldman that

1416
01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:57,080
Speaker 8: the athletic has learned through multiple sources about Carson Beck,

1417
01:03:57,160 --> 01:04:00,720
Speaker 8: the ex Georgia quarterback that he set to received from

1418
01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:04,360
Speaker 8: Miami channels. He's transferring to the Hurricanes. Yeah set to

1419
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:08,120
Speaker 8: receive a little over three million dollars, roughly double what

1420
01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:11,200
Speaker 8: cam Ward earned through the Miami Collective.

1421
01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:13,760
Speaker 2: Back to you, yeah, I saw that things are getting

1422
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,120
Speaker 2: out of hand here. I saw that. Well. I don't

1423
01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:19,480
Speaker 2: have any problem fundamentally with Carson Beck making three million dollars,

1424
01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:22,320
Speaker 2: but the idea that he is worth double what cam

1425
01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:26,280
Speaker 2: Ward is worth is, in sanities.

1426
01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:27,520
Speaker 6: Double what most rookies are worthy.

1427
01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:31,440
Speaker 2: That's the other thing, right, right, that's the other thing.

1428
01:04:32,240 --> 01:04:38,600
Speaker 2: If I'm the NFL, I gotta be looking at this thinking, hey,

1429
01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:43,800
Speaker 2: y'all need to chill down there, because you're looking at quarterbacks. Like,

1430
01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:51,040
Speaker 2: who was I thinking about a guy like Drew Aller

1431
01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:51,760
Speaker 2: for example?

1432
01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:52,440
Speaker 7: Right?

1433
01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:54,080
Speaker 2: I think we were talking about this last week, you

1434
01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:58,080
Speaker 2: and I, Right, Like, what's to say that Drew Aller?

1435
01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:02,080
Speaker 2: Who I know? Couple of weeks everybody was like, oh,

1436
01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:04,520
Speaker 2: he might be QB one and watch college football, and

1437
01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:06,920
Speaker 2: you'll find out that is far from the truth. The

1438
01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:09,320
Speaker 2: best way to suss to like suss out if somebody

1439
01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:11,760
Speaker 2: had watched college football all year is if they said,

1440
01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:14,680
Speaker 2: after what is that Boise State game? That Drew Aller

1441
01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:18,040
Speaker 2: was QB one. But that's how you know you're not.

1442
01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:20,800
Speaker 2: You haven't been here long. That's Okay, just keep your

1443
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:22,880
Speaker 2: opinions to yourself until you've learned a little bit more.

1444
01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:26,960
Speaker 2: But so there's my point. I don't know how much

1445
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:30,360
Speaker 2: he's making in nil, but I know it's probably if

1446
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:33,640
Speaker 2: if if Carson Beck's making three million dollars, Drew Aler

1447
01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:36,240
Speaker 2: got to be making a couple hundred thousand right to

1448
01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:39,640
Speaker 2: be the quarterback at Penn State, would you rather be

1449
01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:42,440
Speaker 2: the quarterback at Penn State for a couple hundred thousand

1450
01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:44,320
Speaker 2: with the chance, like if they had won this game,

1451
01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:47,640
Speaker 2: for example, his nil is gonna go straight up right

1452
01:05:48,760 --> 01:05:51,520
Speaker 2: where you can be in this economy where you can

1453
01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:54,000
Speaker 2: get a three. I mean, Carson Carson Beck would never

1454
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:58,000
Speaker 2: get three million dollars in the NFL, and he's gonna

1455
01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:00,840
Speaker 2: get it in Miami like now. But I think you

1456
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:04,600
Speaker 2: end up with the reason I bring it up. You

1457
01:06:04,680 --> 01:06:07,400
Speaker 2: went like Drew Allers and Carson Becks and so on,

1458
01:06:07,600 --> 01:06:10,520
Speaker 2: that's supposed to be the floor of what NFL quarterbacking is.

1459
01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 2: Dang right, No, I'm being serious. I know you are.

1460
01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:18,000
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. Those guys come into the league

1461
01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:21,920
Speaker 2: and they become Mike Whitees and you know, Skyler Thompson's

1462
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:23,280
Speaker 2: and I'm not even trying to pick on Dolphins. Those

1463
01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:24,880
Speaker 2: just two that popped into my head. And there're two

1464
01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:25,919
Speaker 2: bad backups. That's okay.

1465
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:28,440
Speaker 3: I died watched the Maria Thompson Robinson's and so on

1466
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:30,720
Speaker 3: and so forth. Right now, you want to Hindley's name

1467
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:31,200
Speaker 3: in there too.

1468
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:33,600
Speaker 2: Well, he actually did make it, famously made a Pro Bowl.

1469
01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 2: But some of these are but like some of these

1470
01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:38,760
Speaker 2: guys come out and you see immediately, oh, this is

1471
01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:42,040
Speaker 2: not working at all. That's generally who those guys are.

1472
01:06:42,800 --> 01:06:46,880
Speaker 2: It's to make three million dollars. So if I'm like

1473
01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:49,120
Speaker 2: that kid who has played at North Dakota who just

1474
01:06:49,160 --> 01:06:52,560
Speaker 2: committed to forget, but he committed to the NFL draft

1475
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:54,720
Speaker 2: and ended up switching in I think he committed to

1476
01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:57,280
Speaker 2: Duke or I forget where he went.

1477
01:06:57,440 --> 01:06:59,400
Speaker 3: But the guy was like a guy who had a

1478
01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:01,480
Speaker 3: shot to be one of those quarterbacks that kind of

1479
01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:03,880
Speaker 3: comes out of nowhere, could have ros in the draft

1480
01:07:03,920 --> 01:07:05,920
Speaker 3: and all of that. Like we've seen Carson Wentz get

1481
01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:09,040
Speaker 3: drafted third overall or Geno second or whatever he was drafted,

1482
01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:09,480
Speaker 3: But we've.

1483
01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:11,480
Speaker 2: Seen these guys get drafted from the small schools. I

1484
01:07:11,560 --> 01:07:13,280
Speaker 2: think his name was Glewinsky.

1485
01:07:13,120 --> 01:07:15,200
Speaker 6: Mark Gronowski committed to Iowa.

1486
01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:19,400
Speaker 2: Thank you. He committed to Iowa, right, But he probably

1487
01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:21,920
Speaker 2: made more at Iowa than he would have if he

1488
01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:24,000
Speaker 2: tried to make it in the NFL for the first

1489
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:27,280
Speaker 2: three or four years. I don't. My thing is this is,

1490
01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:30,400
Speaker 2: this is what it is. Though I don't have now

1491
01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,120
Speaker 2: do I think he deserves three million dollars?

1492
01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:36,240
Speaker 3: What's the going rate for a Porter quarterback? That's what

1493
01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:39,160
Speaker 3: it comes down to to me, what's the three million? Yeah,

1494
01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:41,160
Speaker 3: what's the going rate? The going right right now is

1495
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:44,680
Speaker 3: three mil? I mean Bryce Underwood. Okay, let's get real.

1496
01:07:44,880 --> 01:07:47,240
Speaker 3: What is Michigan giving a kid that hasn't played it down?

1497
01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:49,680
Speaker 3: I get we can throw that out there, But to me,

1498
01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:52,680
Speaker 3: this just is what it is. He was gonna transfer,

1499
01:07:52,840 --> 01:07:55,480
Speaker 3: He was gonna go somewhere else. Everybody knows. They want

1500
01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:57,520
Speaker 3: him to go with Gunner stocked him down at Georgia.

1501
01:07:57,600 --> 01:08:00,240
Speaker 3: Everybody knows it. So I'm getting out of here. Okay,

1502
01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:02,360
Speaker 3: what are you willing to pay? What if you're Miami, right,

1503
01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:05,800
Speaker 3: you just paid cam Ward and that didn't pan out, right,

1504
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:07,560
Speaker 3: you didn't get to the college football playoffs.

1505
01:08:07,560 --> 01:08:08,680
Speaker 2: You gotta go do it again.

1506
01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:10,720
Speaker 3: Because if you didn't, if you thought you could get

1507
01:08:10,720 --> 01:08:12,360
Speaker 3: to the college football player with which you have, you

1508
01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:14,760
Speaker 3: went and paid cam Ward, you the eighth this year,

1509
01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:17,479
Speaker 3: knowing you had a kid you were grooming, Let him play,

1510
01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:20,160
Speaker 3: let him get better. Then next year twenty twenty five,

1511
01:08:20,240 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we got our guy. No, you don't have him.

1512
01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:24,840
Speaker 3: That's why you ain't got cam Ward. That's why you

1513
01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:27,040
Speaker 3: gotta go get Carson back. And I heard somebody else,

1514
01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:28,880
Speaker 3: I believe he was on over in the Mouse this

1515
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:31,639
Speaker 3: morning that says he knows of two or three top

1516
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:34,960
Speaker 3: receivers that are gonna follow back there to Miami because

1517
01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:36,439
Speaker 3: they got some portal money to spend.

1518
01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:38,960
Speaker 2: This is just where we are now. Do I think

1519
01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:41,439
Speaker 2: he's worth that, No, he's gonna make more.

1520
01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:44,880
Speaker 3: He's gonna make more to Brock Party. Rock Party doesn't

1521
01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:47,760
Speaker 3: make three million dollars and he's played in a super Bowl.

1522
01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:50,600
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. There's a left like it just

1523
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:53,120
Speaker 2: it just the money makes it in that courtyard. But

1524
01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:57,600
Speaker 2: the but the money is gonna make this weird for

1525
01:08:57,760 --> 01:08:59,559
Speaker 2: lack of I don't know what the word is I'm

1526
01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:04,080
Speaker 2: looking for, but it's gonna be very awkward when because

1527
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:07,960
Speaker 2: I don't think Carson Beck is any good. Right. I

1528
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:10,080
Speaker 2: think Sir Door Sanders has been famous his whole life,

1529
01:09:10,240 --> 01:09:12,120
Speaker 2: has been rich his whole life, and will be very

1530
01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:15,120
Speaker 2: good at being famous and rich going forward. Right. And

1531
01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:16,920
Speaker 2: I think cam Ward is now at the has recal

1532
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:18,920
Speaker 2: level where he's got the famous used to, has gotten

1533
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:21,720
Speaker 2: used to being paid, but still he's not gotten paid

1534
01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:23,720
Speaker 2: his entirety of his college like he came from a

1535
01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:26,720
Speaker 2: carnate ward like, like he had to build this up

1536
01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:28,880
Speaker 2: to where the NFL is still a step up. When

1537
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:32,240
Speaker 2: what happens for the next Caleb Williams, who is the

1538
01:09:32,400 --> 01:09:36,320
Speaker 2: man from day one whose dad is not Dion Sanders, Right,

1539
01:09:36,360 --> 01:09:41,360
Speaker 2: he's the man. Okay, Bryce hun actually make a mail.

1540
01:09:41,680 --> 01:09:44,720
Speaker 2: Bryce Underwood starts for three years, he balls out, and

1541
01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,640
Speaker 2: all of a sudden the NFL is there. It's like,

1542
01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:49,960
Speaker 2: you know, normally you if you start for three years

1543
01:09:49,960 --> 01:09:52,519
Speaker 2: in college, you're probably gonna jump to the NFL as

1544
01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:56,559
Speaker 2: a junior. Right, Okay, makes sense. But brix Hunderwood looks,

1545
01:09:56,560 --> 01:09:58,280
Speaker 2: he says, hold on, win a minute. I'm gonna make

1546
01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:00,800
Speaker 2: more money next year at Michigan that I will if

1547
01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:03,320
Speaker 2: you're tired in my rookie deal then how does it

1548
01:10:03,360 --> 01:10:05,439
Speaker 2: work when he gets to the league and it's not

1549
01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:08,559
Speaker 2: even like we're not talking about offensive line, like we're

1550
01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:11,719
Speaker 2: talking about the premier position in the sport. It's gonna

1551
01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:12,679
Speaker 2: change the dynamic.

1552
01:10:13,200 --> 01:10:15,840
Speaker 3: I just think the NFL either, you're gonna have to

1553
01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:17,680
Speaker 3: change the rookie contracts the way it used to be

1554
01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:20,479
Speaker 3: for these Remember Sam Bradford was the last famous guy

1555
01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:22,640
Speaker 3: of quarterback coming in and getting that big money when

1556
01:10:22,680 --> 01:10:24,320
Speaker 3: they have improved, and that was the storyline in Oh,

1557
01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:26,720
Speaker 3: he hasn't proved himself. They have approved himself. These number

1558
01:10:26,760 --> 01:10:28,559
Speaker 3: one picks, these top quarterback picks, you're paying them.

1559
01:10:28,479 --> 01:10:28,920
Speaker 2: All his money.

1560
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:30,639
Speaker 3: And this guy over here did this, and this guy yeah,

1561
01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:32,200
Speaker 3: when that guy was drafted in the fifth round, Okay,

1562
01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:34,080
Speaker 3: so I'm sorry that he was drafting him on overall

1563
01:10:34,120 --> 01:10:36,439
Speaker 3: he was drafted one ninety seven. Like that's just the way.

1564
01:10:36,560 --> 01:10:38,240
Speaker 3: That's just the way it goes. But I will argue

1565
01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:40,080
Speaker 3: this for Carson Beck, and this would be a smart

1566
01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,599
Speaker 3: move for me if what if Carson backs feels kind

1567
01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:43,920
Speaker 3: of how you feel, or the people or his handles

1568
01:10:43,920 --> 01:10:46,320
Speaker 3: feel kind how you feel. He's not a bona five

1569
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:49,720
Speaker 3: superstar NFL quarterback, So why not hit the portal and

1570
01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:50,679
Speaker 3: go grab three mil.

1571
01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:53,479
Speaker 2: There are some players that there got Listen, not Bryce.

1572
01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:57,640
Speaker 3: Underwood is who we hope he especially me, who I

1573
01:10:57,760 --> 01:11:00,479
Speaker 3: anticipated and hope him to be. He's not been thinking

1574
01:11:00,520 --> 01:11:02,559
Speaker 3: about the money of the contract because when he gets

1575
01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:04,200
Speaker 3: to the league, he's already gonna have a Nike deal

1576
01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:06,880
Speaker 3: for fifty sixty million dollars on their data, He's gonna

1577
01:11:06,920 --> 01:11:09,040
Speaker 3: on so many They got so many deals because when

1578
01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:11,160
Speaker 3: you're doing nil during college, you don't think you're not

1579
01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:14,840
Speaker 3: not not hobbing and shaking the kissing babies around these

1580
01:11:14,960 --> 01:11:18,040
Speaker 3: other big corporations. You're already being paid by corporation. It's

1581
01:11:18,120 --> 01:11:20,280
Speaker 3: just through the university. You're already being paid by one.

1582
01:11:20,439 --> 01:11:21,600
Speaker 3: So by the time you get to the NFL, I

1583
01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:24,400
Speaker 3: don't think players will balk at the rookie contract when

1584
01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:26,960
Speaker 3: I'm about to sign this sixty million dollars Nike deal

1585
01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:29,679
Speaker 3: because I just wore Nike or Jordan while was at Michigan.

1586
01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:32,799
Speaker 2: I mean, but then you end up with a problem

1587
01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:35,679
Speaker 2: that the NBA has, which is you end up making

1588
01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:39,599
Speaker 2: more money playing with your endorsements. Do you play actually

1589
01:11:39,680 --> 01:11:41,479
Speaker 2: do play in the sport? And you know what that

1590
01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:44,120
Speaker 2: means you don't have to play the sport all the time.

1591
01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:47,759
Speaker 3: So you think load management will start to see pitza,

1592
01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:49,320
Speaker 3: oh you can went down a rabbit hole.

1593
01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:49,880
Speaker 7: I like this.

1594
01:11:50,160 --> 01:11:52,599
Speaker 2: See we already have quarter, we already had. No, there's

1595
01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:55,360
Speaker 2: already teams. I love, there's already are There are teams

1596
01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:58,360
Speaker 2: that already a Week E team I got had I mean,

1597
01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:00,840
Speaker 2: who is it? The chief said? The freaking Drake May

1598
01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:03,000
Speaker 2: said no, no, the Chase got the one sheet. At

1599
01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:05,760
Speaker 2: least Drake May didn't play Week E team. That's right. Yeah, yeah,

1600
01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:08,000
Speaker 2: like there are teams already doing this, did you gotta see?

1601
01:12:08,040 --> 01:12:11,280
Speaker 3: Jerry Jones addressed the money that would have been paid

1602
01:12:11,400 --> 01:12:14,800
Speaker 3: to Cooper Rush for starting a certain percentage of like

1603
01:12:14,880 --> 01:12:16,920
Speaker 3: it was like fifty five or sixty percent of plays,

1604
01:12:16,960 --> 01:12:19,599
Speaker 3: and he was at like fifty he would have been

1605
01:12:19,760 --> 01:12:21,960
Speaker 3: he was like right there, he would have qualified. And

1606
01:12:22,200 --> 01:12:27,080
Speaker 3: Jerry Jonson actually, yeah, Jerry Jones actually addressed that. I

1607
01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:30,200
Speaker 3: actually I didn't even know about that. You didn't You

1608
01:12:30,479 --> 01:12:33,080
Speaker 3: run the franchise, bro and you don't know about every

1609
01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:36,400
Speaker 3: red penny, every red pity that gets paid to everybody.

1610
01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:38,960
Speaker 3: You don't know about that, especially the guy calling the

1611
01:12:39,080 --> 01:12:42,200
Speaker 3: place and saying down, set hike, come on man.

1612
01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:46,400
Speaker 2: But I am of the belief that you work for

1613
01:12:46,479 --> 01:12:49,400
Speaker 2: who pays you the most, and it's been working so

1614
01:12:49,520 --> 01:12:52,080
Speaker 2: far from me in my career. But you work for

1615
01:12:52,120 --> 01:12:54,479
Speaker 2: who pays you the life period. So when you're looking

1616
01:12:54,479 --> 01:12:57,160
Speaker 2: at you, when I look at the NBA, like I

1617
01:12:57,320 --> 01:13:00,080
Speaker 2: know that Jason Tatum works for the Boston Celtics, but but.

1618
01:13:01,920 --> 01:13:04,320
Speaker 3: You make it more than maybe he's better this. He's

1619
01:13:04,360 --> 01:13:05,040
Speaker 3: got that back now.

1620
01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:07,599
Speaker 2: But like these guys were coming up, they made more

1621
01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:11,800
Speaker 2: with the Nike Seal, like they make more Jordan Deale

1622
01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:15,240
Speaker 2: and were singing for State Farm than they do playing

1623
01:13:15,320 --> 01:13:17,439
Speaker 2: Tuesday and Thursday Night. And you know, it's a lot

1624
01:13:17,560 --> 01:13:21,240
Speaker 2: easier singing for State Farm. So I think it's something

1625
01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:23,640
Speaker 2: like it's it is. I don't know what it is yet.

1626
01:13:23,760 --> 01:13:25,639
Speaker 2: Maybe it's not even worth talking about on the radio

1627
01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:27,200
Speaker 2: until it is something. I don't think we'll get it

1628
01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:29,719
Speaker 2: in a low management in NFL. It will we already

1629
01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:32,320
Speaker 2: were no. Week eighteen I think is excluded.

1630
01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:35,880
Speaker 3: I just don't see somebody going we're giving our running

1631
01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:40,920
Speaker 3: back a veteran's week in week seven and in week ten.

1632
01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:41,519
Speaker 2: And week twelve.

1633
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 3: That's not gonna happen in this game. Not in football.

1634
01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:47,240
Speaker 3: There's way too much pride, there's way too much physicality,

1635
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:49,559
Speaker 3: there's way too much. You can't just take guys off

1636
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:51,559
Speaker 3: of football phieldy thing. You can just earn certain them

1637
01:13:51,600 --> 01:13:53,280
Speaker 3: back in. It doesn't work that way.

1638
01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:55,920
Speaker 2: I'm telling you right here, right now about when I

1639
01:13:56,080 --> 01:13:59,160
Speaker 2: was in college. I'll never forget walking across the street,

1640
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:02,599
Speaker 2: Church Street, getting the notification that Pop was sitting his players.

1641
01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:04,840
Speaker 2: I said, this will never take Like, guys, he's just

1642
01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:06,519
Speaker 2: gonna so he's gonna sell the game. They never this

1643
01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:08,320
Speaker 2: will never take off. In the end, this means you

1644
01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:08,800
Speaker 2: was wrong.

1645
01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:14,240
Speaker 3: Just means you're wrong at the NFL is not going Mark,

1646
01:14:14,280 --> 01:14:16,200
Speaker 3: I'm a stand on Listen, We're gonna know each other

1647
01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:19,080
Speaker 3: for years, dude. So we'll we'll, we'll, we'll rehash this

1648
01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:22,240
Speaker 3: year's down the line. We will, we'll bring it up line.

1649
01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:24,559
Speaker 3: NFL Week eight team doesn't count.

1650
01:14:24,880 --> 01:14:25,680
Speaker 2: No, that you know it does.

1651
01:14:25,720 --> 01:14:27,240
Speaker 3: I am putting a extract there that Week eight team

1652
01:14:27,280 --> 01:14:29,599
Speaker 3: does come on because they've been doing that for thirty

1653
01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:32,800
Speaker 3: years now. The teams with nothing to play for. No,

1654
01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:36,439
Speaker 3: that's no, that's nothing to play for. Resting starters is insane.

1655
01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:38,439
Speaker 3: But now that's why I brought up that contract thing.

1656
01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:40,200
Speaker 3: If you can't, I if you can just maybe dig

1657
01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:42,280
Speaker 3: into this dude to deliver the show whatever. But was

1658
01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:45,120
Speaker 3: there some type of instead of make Wood that Drake

1659
01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:47,800
Speaker 3: Maywood have it because I'm with Mary wouldn't have I

1660
01:14:47,840 --> 01:14:48,680
Speaker 3: don't know, but his.

1661
01:14:48,760 --> 01:14:51,560
Speaker 2: Rookie contract is pretty standard. It wouldn't have been incentivizing

1662
01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:55,160
Speaker 2: that way. But oh god, I just had him. Taekwon

1663
01:14:55,200 --> 01:14:56,479
Speaker 2: didn't play. Who else didn't.

1664
01:14:56,880 --> 01:14:59,960
Speaker 3: Taekwon didn't play. The Chiefs sat ten guys. That okay,

1665
01:15:00,240 --> 01:15:01,920
Speaker 3: So then you can't say number one seed. If I

1666
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:04,400
Speaker 3: can't say Week eighteen, you can't say number one seed.

1667
01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:05,920
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't like it, but I can at

1668
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:06,599
Speaker 3: least understand.

1669
01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:07,960
Speaker 2: All right, And I don't like Week eighteen, but I

1670
01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:09,920
Speaker 2: can at least understand. It's the same thing I can understand.

1671
01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:13,040
Speaker 2: If you're not playing for anything, then what are you doing? Bryce?

1672
01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:15,919
Speaker 2: Like if Bryce Shung had sat for Carolina, that's embarrassing.

1673
01:15:16,080 --> 01:15:18,360

01:16:04,200 --> 01:16:04,679
Speaker 1: All right?

1688
01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:07,120
Speaker 6: Who you got? Like Martin said, this week's edition is

1689
01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:10,360
Speaker 6: Vikings versus Rams. So just a quick refresher here how

1690
01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:12,519
Speaker 6: the game works. I'm thinking of someone who has something

1691
01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:14,840
Speaker 6: to do with either of these two franchises, whether it

1692
01:16:14,920 --> 01:16:17,800
Speaker 6: be a player or executive coach, whatever, could be at

1693
01:16:17,880 --> 01:16:19,080
Speaker 6: any point in NFL history.

1694
01:16:19,640 --> 01:16:25,559
Speaker 2: Last week, yeah, who was David last week? Yep? Good stuff.

1695
01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:28,160
Speaker 6: So moving on to this week, Let's start with the

1696
01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:31,320
Speaker 6: first clue here. This guy was drafted in the first

1697
01:16:31,439 --> 01:16:34,320
Speaker 6: round and was the second highest drafted player in his

1698
01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:35,120
Speaker 6: school's history.

1699
01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:39,400
Speaker 2: Second highest drafted player in his school's history in the

1700
01:16:39,720 --> 01:16:46,200
Speaker 2: first round, m Mitchell Trubisky. No, that's not a bad

1701
01:16:46,320 --> 01:16:48,559
Speaker 2: guess at all, because Lord Taylor would be the first.

1702
01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:53,760
Speaker 3: Marse Taylor went to North Carolina Baby ACC player of

1703
01:16:53,800 --> 01:16:55,160
Speaker 3: the Year as a defender.

1704
01:16:55,960 --> 01:17:01,320
Speaker 2: Anyway, I will go with first round draft pick for

1705
01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:05,920
Speaker 2: I can't be second high Matthew Stafford because he was

1706
01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:07,479
Speaker 2: the number one. He can't be the second highest.

1707
01:17:07,720 --> 01:17:11,599
Speaker 6: Not Matthew Stafford. Next up. He has played in eleven

1708
01:17:11,720 --> 01:17:14,479
Speaker 6: seasons in the NFL for five different teams, and I'm

1709
01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:16,200
Speaker 6: not going to tell you whether he's still active yet.

1710
01:17:17,280 --> 01:17:20,960
Speaker 2: Eleven seasons, five teams, so either he was pretty good

1711
01:17:21,080 --> 01:17:24,719
Speaker 2: or not that good, like he was a second player

1712
01:17:24,880 --> 01:17:25,559
Speaker 2: drafted off.

1713
01:17:25,880 --> 01:17:34,160
Speaker 6: You know, Geovanni and Clowney Nope, Danil Hunter Nope. Neither

1714
01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:37,000
Speaker 6: are bad guesses. Next clue here. He has played in

1715
01:17:37,080 --> 01:17:40,040
Speaker 6: two Super Bowls, but unfortunately he lost both.

1716
01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:45,519
Speaker 2: Lost both Super Bowls. So he's not somebody from this

1717
01:17:45,640 --> 01:17:50,360
Speaker 2: most recent Rams because they won the Super Bowl. You

1718
01:17:50,479 --> 01:17:55,960
Speaker 2: have to think of the losing teams. It's not Seattle

1719
01:17:56,000 --> 01:17:58,600
Speaker 2: because he would have been there when they won the

1720
01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:04,800
Speaker 2: year prior. Maybe it's a Viking. Dante Colpe, No, that's

1721
01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:14,040
Speaker 2: a hell of a guess about the next clue. Matt Ryan, Nope,

1722
01:18:14,080 --> 01:18:14,760
Speaker 2: not Matt Ryan.

1723
01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:18,680
Speaker 6: This one may help narrow it down. He's reached one

1724
01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:22,519
Speaker 6: thousand yards six times in his career, but rush at

1725
01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:26,000
Speaker 6: or receiving, but he's never made a Pro Bowl or

1726
01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:28,160
Speaker 6: All Pro team. So he said, you're not going to

1727
01:18:28,200 --> 01:18:29,160
Speaker 6: tell you're rushing or receiving.

1728
01:18:29,240 --> 01:18:30,680
Speaker 2: Yam, So it all was.

1729
01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:33,360
Speaker 6: He's reached one thousand yards six times in his career,

1730
01:18:33,439 --> 01:18:35,240
Speaker 6: but never made a Pro Bowl or All Pro team.

1731
01:18:36,960 --> 01:18:47,400
Speaker 2: Aaron Jones No. Two Super Bowls, eleven seasons, five teams.

1732
01:18:47,479 --> 01:18:50,160
Speaker 2: Reggie Bush No, next one.

1733
01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:53,920
Speaker 6: He reached one thousand receiving yards on the season for

1734
01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:57,960
Speaker 6: four different franchises, so he was successful for four different franchises.

1735
01:18:58,640 --> 01:19:05,040
Speaker 2: Randy Moss No, getting warmer. Brandon Marshall No.

1736
01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:10,040
Speaker 6: Definitely getting warmer though. Chris Carter No next up here.

1737
01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:13,240
Speaker 6: He won the bullet Nikoff Award at Oregon State in

1738
01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:14,040
Speaker 6: twenty thirteen.

1739
01:19:14,479 --> 01:19:18,160
Speaker 2: Oregon State. J Housman Zada, No.

1740
01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:18,880
Speaker 6: No, No.

1741
01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:20,000
Speaker 2: Brandon Cooks.

1742
01:19:20,200 --> 01:19:23,519
Speaker 6: It is Brandon Cook weeks in a row playing thank

1743
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:27,040
Speaker 6: you play My music? So there was only only one

1744
01:19:27,120 --> 01:19:29,200
Speaker 6: more clue, and it would have been. He was the Saints'

1745
01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:31,080
Speaker 6: first round draft pick in twenty fourteen.

1746
01:19:31,560 --> 01:19:33,840
Speaker 2: Ironically enough, you just started with that one out of

1747
01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:39,360
Speaker 2: Brandon Cooks Oregon State nineteenth pick, right twentieth twenty. That's

1748
01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:44,920
Speaker 2: damn impressing. So second highest picked that first, that first pick.

1749
01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:47,360
Speaker 2: That's why I was trying to go with. I was

1750
01:19:47,400 --> 01:19:48,080
Speaker 2: trying to figure out it.

1751
01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:50,880
Speaker 6: Was literally it was in like the nineteen fifties. It

1752
01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:53,920
Speaker 6: was like the highest was in nineteen fifty or something.

1753
01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:56,720
Speaker 6: That's a great clue, that's a great receiver. But I

1754
01:19:56,720 --> 01:19:57,840
Speaker 6: didn't want to give away the position.

1755
01:19:57,920 --> 01:20:04,240
Speaker 2: I got you Vikings Rams Who wins Vikings? It was

1756
01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:06,680
Speaker 2: it wasn't a true question. Now, I think because of

1757
01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:09,400
Speaker 2: everything that's going on, that's gonna be hard for those guys. Man,

1758
01:20:09,560 --> 01:20:11,840
Speaker 2: we'll pick that game and all the rest of them

1759
01:20:11,880 --> 01:20:13,000
Speaker 2: coming up in just a minute.

1760
01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:16,040
Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio.

1761
01:20:17,200 --> 01:20:19,639
Speaker 2: That's right, and we're broadcasting live from the tire rack

1762
01:20:19,680 --> 01:20:21,960
Speaker 2: dot com studiosi iraq dot com. Well, you get there

1765
01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:30,840
Speaker 2: Rack dot Com. It's the way that tire buying should

1766
01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:33,920
Speaker 2: be VJ. Steve Desager just outlined it. That's the second time.

1767
01:20:34,800 --> 01:20:37,839
Speaker 2: That's the second time today that Derreck Henry has scored

1768
01:20:37,920 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 2: in the midst of a Steve di Seger update. So

1769
01:20:40,240 --> 01:20:42,680
Speaker 2: that's how you know things aren't going well for Pittsburgh.

1770
01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:46,680
Speaker 3: A shocking lack of compete on the defensive side of

1771
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:48,360
Speaker 3: the ball, for me, is the story here, even though

1772
01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:49,760
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh's offense.

1773
01:20:49,680 --> 01:20:52,160
Speaker 2: Has not been able to move the ball either. Oh yeah,

1774
01:20:52,240 --> 01:20:55,920
Speaker 2: the offense. Hmmm when it was quarterback in that this

1775
01:20:56,080 --> 01:20:59,599
Speaker 2: game's over. Man, we look dumb picking the steals the cover.

1776
01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:01,960
Speaker 2: I mean, nine and a half might still happen, but

1777
01:21:02,080 --> 01:21:04,360
Speaker 2: I also think this game is over. So with that,

1778
01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:07,600
Speaker 2: we normally save this for college teams, but let's go

1779
01:21:07,680 --> 01:21:13,040
Speaker 2: ahead and do it now. It's time for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

1780
01:21:13,080 --> 01:21:16,639
Speaker 2: You are now board in Cancoon Airlines with direct flights

1781
01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:22,000

01:21:26,240 --> 01:21:29,080
Speaker 2: eighteen minutes away. This not just them.

1784
01:21:29,160 --> 01:21:31,720
Speaker 3: We can also add to Texas Longhorns. We can add

1785
01:21:31,720 --> 01:21:34,640
Speaker 3: to Penn State and Nitney Lions, and to much of

1786
01:21:34,800 --> 01:21:38,680
Speaker 3: my own chagrin, the Los Angeles Chargers. You guys can

1787

Speaker 3: book your beautiful stay at any resort around the nation

1788
01:21:41,720 --> 01:21:43,840
Speaker 3: because you're gonna be needed and I have to get eliminated.

1789
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:46,840
Speaker 3: All these teams too, any of the very competitive are

1790
01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:49,439
Speaker 3: just embarrassing fashions either or make sure you get your

01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:55,639
Speaker 3: and Paris scaling, and don't forget to do the expedition.

1793
01:21:55,840 --> 01:21:59,000
Speaker 3: You get to kiss the dolphins. That's always fun. Plenty

1794
01:21:59,040 --> 01:22:01,720
Speaker 3: of pina coladas, those little pineapples, and tell them to

1795
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,599
Speaker 3: keep them coming, and add extra shots of the key.

1796
01:22:05,439 --> 01:22:08,360
Speaker 2: Happy hours every day from the pool from four to six.

1797
01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:12,640
Speaker 2: Buffet starts seven thirty. Nightly in the green room, have

1801
01:22:18,680 --> 01:22:20,880
Speaker 2: let's do this right now, though we'll transition from here

1802
01:22:21,000 --> 01:22:23,560
Speaker 2: saying goodbye to those teams those pick the games that

1803
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:26,120
Speaker 2: are about to happen. We both in the book right now.

1804
01:22:26,200 --> 01:22:28,479
Speaker 2: For Steelers plus nine and a half, keep your fingers

1805
01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:30,280
Speaker 2: crossed on that one. But for the rest of them,

1806
01:22:30,479 --> 01:22:34,960
Speaker 2: let's go ahead and you're up. All right, there we.

1807
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:37,080
Speaker 6: Go, We got the music going. So now it is

1808
01:22:37,200 --> 01:22:40,360
Speaker 6: time to update you fellas for how the regular season went,

1809
01:22:40,439 --> 01:22:42,680
Speaker 6: because we've been doing these picks all year long, so

1810
01:22:42,880 --> 01:22:44,880
Speaker 6: how to turn out? First, we will touch on atomic

1811
01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:48,599
Speaker 6: dogs really quick. VJ a victorious season for you. Picking

1812
01:22:48,640 --> 01:22:52,200
Speaker 6: the underdogs twenty two to fifteen was the final there,

1813
01:22:52,360 --> 01:22:55,920
Speaker 6: so VJ, well done, congratulations in order that makes.

1814
01:22:55,800 --> 01:22:57,639
Speaker 2: Some extra money this football. So I'm about to say

1815
01:22:57,720 --> 01:23:02,720
Speaker 2: that's so profitable, pig. What is that twenty two and

1816
01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:05,960
Speaker 2: fifteen you said? So that's thirty seven underdowenty two for VJ,

1817
01:23:06,120 --> 01:23:07,000
Speaker 2: fifteen ft for you.

1818
01:23:07,280 --> 01:23:09,439
Speaker 3: Oh okay, all right, So we did three every week

1819
01:23:09,479 --> 01:23:16,360
Speaker 3: and three times eighteen would be I don't know, fifty anyway,

1820
01:23:17,840 --> 01:23:20,920
Speaker 3: fifty four to fifty four underdogs. I mean that's I'll

1821
01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:22,920
Speaker 3: take you that's printing money. Yeah, anyway, I made some

1822
01:23:22,960 --> 01:23:25,439
Speaker 3: money this all season at all. But anyway, we're getting

1823
01:23:25,479 --> 01:23:29,840
Speaker 3: to how the picks actually went, so I guess we'll

1824
01:23:29,880 --> 01:23:31,760
Speaker 3: do it like this. So how week eighteen went?

1825
01:23:31,880 --> 01:23:32,120
Speaker 6: First?

1826
01:23:32,320 --> 01:23:34,040
Speaker 2: So set up?

1827
01:23:34,360 --> 01:23:37,200
Speaker 6: Where were we before going into Yeah, sounds like one

1828
01:23:37,280 --> 01:23:40,080
Speaker 6: game day you were, you were ahead by one. You

1829
01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:43,599
Speaker 6: had a one game league going in now against the spread.

1830
01:23:43,760 --> 01:23:46,479
Speaker 6: We did five games per usual, and you both went

1831
01:23:46,640 --> 01:23:49,640
Speaker 6: four and one against the spread. Well done there, But

1832
01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:52,920
Speaker 6: we also added two extra games, which were the Jets

1833
01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:57,720
Speaker 6: versus Dolphins and the Lions versus Vikings games. So that

1834
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:00,599
Speaker 6: was that was what ultimately made the different here because

1835
01:24:00,600 --> 01:24:03,040
Speaker 6: Martin went to and O on those games and VJ

1836
01:24:03,240 --> 01:24:06,040
Speaker 6: you unfortunately went oh and two. So Martin won by

1837
01:24:06,360 --> 01:24:10,800
Speaker 6: one game on the season. Guys, that is so press

1838
01:24:11,640 --> 01:24:13,559
Speaker 6: one game. What was the final records? I just want

1839
01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:20,400
Speaker 6: to renal records were Martin fifty one and thirty four,

1840
01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:25,559
Speaker 6: VJ fifty and thirty five. But there is a kicker

1841
01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:29,160
Speaker 6: here that we've been waiting for, VJ. Because the game

1842
01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:32,400
Speaker 6: that ultimately made the difference was the Dolphins and Jets

1843
01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:37,960
Speaker 6: and them bomb ass. Jets ultimately lost your season picks

1844
01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:38,439
Speaker 6: for you.

1845
01:24:42,920 --> 01:24:48,240
Speaker 2: Because you remember, remember because remember we picked the Lions

1846
01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:49,560
Speaker 2: and the Vikings.

1847
01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:53,000
Speaker 10: Game earlier in the show, so we threw that in

1848
01:24:53,160 --> 01:24:56,880
Speaker 10: there and the last and I remember, yeah, the last

1849
01:24:57,120 --> 01:24:59,840
Speaker 10: wait one, last one, yeah, the.

1850
01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:03,639
Speaker 3: Yet the Dolphins, I said Jets would take the Dolphins

1851
01:25:03,680 --> 01:25:07,200
Speaker 3: out back like old Jeller and put those playoff chances.

1852
01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:15,160
Speaker 2: To so it ended up being the bum ass Jets'

1853
01:25:15,320 --> 01:25:22,160
Speaker 2: cast you from a tie to a win. No, no,

1854
01:25:23,400 --> 01:25:25,960
Speaker 2: are you serious? That was the games, remember the VJ

1855
01:25:26,120 --> 01:25:28,720
Speaker 2: That was the last one. Difference, that's the last one

1856
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:33,439
Speaker 2: we threw it on. At the very end, I.

1857
01:25:33,520 --> 01:25:38,639
Speaker 3: Called I caught Shenanigans because my mind, my brains, because

1858
01:25:38,680 --> 01:25:41,360
Speaker 3: now I'm pissed how the fund's gone and the Lafts

1859
01:25:41,400 --> 01:25:42,280
Speaker 3: got the fund's gone left?

1860
01:25:43,040 --> 01:25:45,320
Speaker 2: Did we not add the Panthers into this two and

1861
01:25:45,439 --> 01:25:49,519
Speaker 2: b y that won it again this week? We haven't

1862
01:25:49,640 --> 01:25:53,840
Speaker 2: past weeks. We did in past weeks. Bother me all

1863
01:25:53,960 --> 01:25:54,759
Speaker 2: damn off season.

1864
01:25:54,800 --> 01:25:57,040
Speaker 6: Here's the good news, though, VJs. You have a chance

1865
01:25:57,280 --> 01:25:59,479
Speaker 6: right away to get your get back because we were

1866
01:25:59,520 --> 01:26:03,919
Speaker 6: doing an highly separate picks round here for the playoffs postseason.

1867
01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:04,880
Speaker 2: Regular season is over.

1868
01:26:05,840 --> 01:26:08,439
Speaker 6: Regular season's over, so we can start here. The game's

1869
01:26:08,479 --> 01:26:10,320
Speaker 6: going on today, We're gonna skip those obviously.

1870
01:26:10,560 --> 01:26:12,200
Speaker 2: Well, we're both in for Steelers nine and a half,

1871
01:26:12,320 --> 01:26:13,320
Speaker 2: so that should count.

1872
01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:16,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, true, yeah, we both that will count. But next

1873
01:26:16,880 --> 01:26:19,280
Speaker 6: up we will go to the Denver Broncos, going to

1874
01:26:19,479 --> 01:26:22,599
Speaker 6: Orchard Park to face the Buffalo Bills. Bills are favored

1875
01:26:22,600 --> 01:26:25,320
Speaker 6: by nine and a half points. Here seems a little big.

1876
01:26:25,360 --> 01:26:26,960
Speaker 6: I don't know, what do you guys think? Do you

1877
01:26:27,080 --> 01:26:28,439
Speaker 6: know the weather in Buffalo?

1878
01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:31,000
Speaker 2: Real quick? Let me look this up. I'm sorry, I

1879
01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:31,800
Speaker 2: should have looked this up.

1880
01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:34,080
Speaker 3: It's all good. I'll jump on this and I'll go first.

1881
01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:38,080
Speaker 3: Forty seven and a half over under, which means this is.

1882
01:26:38,080 --> 01:26:40,960
Speaker 2: Either a blowout. For the record, thirty three is thirty three,

1883
01:26:41,640 --> 01:26:44,200
Speaker 2: thirty three with a twenty percent humidity. Yeah, so it's

1884
01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:48,800
Speaker 2: not gonna be like this terrible cold freezer frigid game. Listen.

1885
01:26:48,840 --> 01:26:50,439
Speaker 3: I bang on them all the time. I think I

1886
01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:52,760
Speaker 3: have every right to, but I'm I think Josh Oppa

1887
01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:55,200
Speaker 3: turn over. Allen and this Buffalo team they do what

1888
01:26:55,240 --> 01:26:57,760
Speaker 3: they do in wildcard rounds. They dismantled teams that go

1889
01:26:57,840 --> 01:26:58,960
Speaker 3: up there. The only team that had a shot. If

1890
01:26:58,960 --> 01:27:01,000
Speaker 3: you guys remember when Philip River took the Coats up

1891
01:27:01,040 --> 01:27:03,360
Speaker 3: there about four years ago and misses a wide open

1892
01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:04,760
Speaker 3: guy on the post corner of the ends. I think

1893
01:27:04,760 --> 01:27:06,880
Speaker 3: it was downs in the corner of the end zone

1894
01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:08,280
Speaker 3: and that kind of they led to a field goal.

1895
01:27:08,439 --> 01:27:10,559
Speaker 3: They didn't scored a touchdown and then Buffalo got going.

1896
01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:12,360
Speaker 3: Even the Dolphins up there a few years ago with

1897
01:27:12,439 --> 01:27:15,240
Speaker 3: the backup quarterback putting up thirty one, but the Buffalo

1898
01:27:15,280 --> 01:27:15,960
Speaker 3: scored thirty three.

1899
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:17,400
Speaker 2: That's more than thirty one. You lose that game.

1900
01:27:17,479 --> 01:27:20,200
Speaker 3: So I do think that this game starts off maybe

1901
01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:23,679
Speaker 3: a little slow for Buffalo because the Patriot thing looked

1902
01:27:23,680 --> 01:27:25,599
Speaker 3: a little weird and not having their guys out there,

1903
01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:27,599
Speaker 3: but then going on to winning that game. The Broncos

1904
01:27:27,600 --> 01:27:29,599
Speaker 3: have a rookie quarterback, guys, and that's just the bottom line.

1905
01:27:29,640 --> 01:27:31,560
Speaker 3: It's hard for rookies to go on the road in

1906
01:27:31,640 --> 01:27:34,280
Speaker 3: the playoffs. And what Sean Payn's done with this team

1907
01:27:34,360 --> 01:27:35,800
Speaker 3: is great. He's done a great job with this team,

1908
01:27:35,800 --> 01:27:37,160
Speaker 3: and I think they'll be a lot better next year.

1909
01:27:37,439 --> 01:27:40,280
Speaker 3: Give me Buffalo, and I think they covered this I do.

1910
01:27:40,560 --> 01:27:42,280
Speaker 3: I think they make the plays. I think Josh Allen

1911
01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:44,360
Speaker 3: makes the plays, and I think they covered as nine

1912
01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:46,360
Speaker 3: and a half. I'll take them. I messed up with

1913
01:27:46,479 --> 01:27:48,360
Speaker 3: Baltimore to I'm not gonna make the same mistakes twice.

1914
01:27:48,479 --> 01:27:50,320
Speaker 3: Give me Buffalo to cover the nine.

1915
01:27:50,240 --> 01:27:50,479
Speaker 9: And a half.

1916
01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:53,000
Speaker 2: I'm taking the Denver Broncos here to cover the nine

1917
01:27:53,040 --> 01:27:56,439
Speaker 2: and a half. I think that most wild Card teams

1918
01:27:56,520 --> 01:28:00,160
Speaker 2: are not built like this Denver team is, whereas they

1919
01:28:00,240 --> 01:28:03,760
Speaker 2: have a really really strong defense. I feel like most

1920
01:28:03,800 --> 01:28:07,000
Speaker 2: of the Wildcard teams we see are more flashy offensive

1921
01:28:07,040 --> 01:28:10,360
Speaker 2: teams that defenses lack. Denver's not that as long as

1922
01:28:10,479 --> 01:28:14,000
Speaker 2: bow Knicks cannot turn the ball over, this is not

1923
01:28:14,200 --> 01:28:15,760
Speaker 2: going to be a two score game.

1924
01:28:16,240 --> 01:28:17,760
Speaker 7: And and and.

1925
01:28:19,520 --> 01:28:22,920
Speaker 2: This meat really means nothing but Sean Payton thirty and

1926
01:28:23,040 --> 01:28:26,960
Speaker 2: twelve against bald head coaches and his coaching career, And

1927
01:28:27,040 --> 01:28:29,320
Speaker 2: the hell did you find that on Twitter? And why

1928
01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:31,400
Speaker 2: did you think? What did you think it was okay

1929
01:28:31,439 --> 01:28:34,080
Speaker 2: to say? Because I you know what, thirty and twelve,

1930
01:28:34,120 --> 01:28:36,720
Speaker 2: and you know what? These due for another low, He's

1931
01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:38,519
Speaker 2: due for a win. He's on a hot streak right now.

1932
01:28:38,680 --> 01:28:41,240
Speaker 2: Three last three Bruce Areas, Dan Quinn is somebody that

1933
01:28:41,320 --> 01:28:43,840
Speaker 2: Perry Field anyway, Those are the guys he beat that

1934
01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:46,040
Speaker 2: might have been in Devath anyway. Broncos plus nine and

1935
01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:46,280
Speaker 2: a half.

1936
01:28:46,320 --> 01:28:48,479
Speaker 6: That's a crazy stat. He just can't seem to figure out.

1937
01:28:49,160 --> 01:28:50,760
Speaker 3: Here's also the game with this game tomorrow, with this

1938
01:28:51,120 --> 01:28:52,840
Speaker 3: with this Buffalo, you want to talk about defense. This

1939
01:28:52,880 --> 01:28:55,040
Speaker 3: defense only gives up twenty twenty one points a game. Guys,

1940
01:28:55,479 --> 01:28:58,560
Speaker 3: So if bow Knicks is gonna win this game, he

1941
01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:02,880
Speaker 3: better scored over twenty one three twenty four points. I

1942
01:29:03,040 --> 01:29:05,200
Speaker 3: just I don't see it on the road from a

1943
01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:08,160
Speaker 3: rookie quarterback. Once again, Payton's done a great job with

1944
01:29:08,280 --> 01:29:11,240
Speaker 3: this team. And this defense is stellar. And I disagree

1945
01:29:11,280 --> 01:29:13,639
Speaker 3: with the point about the defense in AFC Chargers defense

1946
01:29:13,680 --> 01:29:15,640
Speaker 3: in the in Texas defense took the field to day two.

1947
01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:18,760
Speaker 3: Those are two also really good. Typical wild really oh okay,

1948
01:29:18,800 --> 01:29:20,960
Speaker 3: typical wild card team has got you. And because Buffalo

1949
01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:22,800
Speaker 3: went went to that is just knocking on the door

1950
01:29:22,880 --> 01:29:25,040
Speaker 3: for a wild card. Yeah, yeah, true, No, they don't

1951
01:29:25,040 --> 01:29:27,560
Speaker 3: have a defense up there. But this Buffalo defense is

1952
01:29:27,640 --> 01:29:29,599
Speaker 3: really good. And like I said, it's on the road

1953
01:29:30,040 --> 01:29:33,040
Speaker 3: and sooner or later, Josh's he's the key, He's the

1954
01:29:33,160 --> 01:29:35,360
Speaker 3: X factor. He makes enough plays to make you just

1955
01:29:35,400 --> 01:29:37,599
Speaker 3: get out of your way from a time Toma twin

1956
01:29:38,120 --> 01:29:39,720
Speaker 3: and it makes these completions. I think that can blow

1957
01:29:39,760 --> 01:29:40,200
Speaker 3: his game up.

1958
01:29:40,640 --> 01:29:40,960
Speaker 2: All right.

1959
01:29:41,080 --> 01:29:43,240
Speaker 6: Next up, we got the Green Bay Packers going to

1960
01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:45,960
Speaker 6: Philadelphia to take on the Eagles. The Eagles are favored

1961
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:46,960
Speaker 6: by five points.

1962
01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:49,320
Speaker 2: What do we think do you want to go first here,

1963
01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:51,439
Speaker 2: No go ahead. I don't even to talk about him,

1964
01:29:51,439 --> 01:29:53,080
Speaker 2: but I have to. I don't even take the Eagles here.

1965
01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:54,760
Speaker 2: I think the Eagles five and a half. I think

1966
01:29:54,760 --> 01:29:58,040
Speaker 2: the Packers are fools goal. Like, the NFL this year,

1967
01:29:58,120 --> 01:30:01,000
Speaker 2: for whatever reason, had a very small middle class, right

1968
01:30:01,240 --> 01:30:03,120
Speaker 2: We had a bunch of teams that stunk and a

1969
01:30:03,200 --> 01:30:05,880
Speaker 2: few teams that were really, really good. The Packers, to me,

1970
01:30:06,479 --> 01:30:09,320
Speaker 2: are kind of maybe this year should be re establishing

1971
01:30:09,400 --> 01:30:11,639
Speaker 2: what the middle class of the NFL is. They beat

1972
01:30:11,720 --> 01:30:14,400
Speaker 2: the bad teams, but none of the bad teams. You know,

1973
01:30:14,920 --> 01:30:16,679
Speaker 2: generally we see one of these bad teams like pop

1974
01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:19,160
Speaker 2: up and win a game or two. Wasn't happening this year.

1975
01:30:19,680 --> 01:30:24,120
Speaker 2: The Packers were a missfield goal away I think from

1976
01:30:24,160 --> 01:30:26,560
Speaker 2: Owen six in the division in the NFC North, and

1977
01:30:26,680 --> 01:30:29,680
Speaker 2: one of those teams is the Bears, exactly like. I

1978
01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:31,920
Speaker 2: don't believe in this Packers team at all, and I

1979
01:30:31,920 --> 01:30:33,760
Speaker 2: don't think Matt Laflor believes. And Jordan Loved the way

1980
01:30:33,760 --> 01:30:35,960
Speaker 2: the bustle people in the media, do I believe in

1981
01:30:36,040 --> 01:30:37,679
Speaker 2: Jordia lovedy Jordan Love will be fine.

1982
01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:40,240
Speaker 3: You're talking to number five offense going on the road

1983
01:30:40,240 --> 01:30:43,560
Speaker 3: against the number one total defense in football, and I

1984
01:30:43,600 --> 01:30:45,360
Speaker 3: think that's where his game is won and loss. I

1985
01:30:45,439 --> 01:30:49,080
Speaker 3: think Sakwan Barkley has a lot a lot of probably

1986
01:30:49,520 --> 01:30:52,040
Speaker 3: not his fault, but misplaced the little I wish I

1987
01:30:52,080 --> 01:30:54,200
Speaker 3: would have. And I think he'll show it off tomorrow

1988
01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:56,599
Speaker 3: and uh and just run for daylight all day long.

1989
01:30:56,840 --> 01:30:59,000
Speaker 3: Hurts gotta week the rest. You know this guy's some

1990
01:30:59,080 --> 01:31:01,360
Speaker 3: of those guys got a weak the man. So I

1991
01:31:01,479 --> 01:31:02,840
Speaker 3: think Philly. I think Philly covers this.

1992
01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:03,120
Speaker 2: I don't.

1993
01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:04,120
Speaker 3: I don't think this is a match up. I do

1994
01:31:04,240 --> 01:31:06,439
Speaker 3: think the game is close the first half, and I

1995
01:31:06,560 --> 01:31:08,880
Speaker 3: think Philly just leans on Saquan. He makes one of

1996
01:31:08,920 --> 01:31:11,519
Speaker 3: those you know, WTF plays and you're like, wow, here

1997
01:31:11,600 --> 01:31:13,120
Speaker 3: he goes again and they pull it off.

1998
01:31:13,800 --> 01:31:16,599
Speaker 6: All right, Two two retread head coaches.

1999
01:31:16,680 --> 01:31:16,840
Speaker 2: Here.

2000
01:31:17,200 --> 01:31:19,519
Speaker 6: We got Todd Bowles going up against Dan Quinns, the

2001
01:31:19,600 --> 01:31:23,040
Speaker 6: Buccaneers facing the Washington Commanders. The Bucks are favored by

2002
01:31:23,120 --> 01:31:24,559
Speaker 6: three points. Though, what do we think?

2003
01:31:25,600 --> 01:31:28,519
Speaker 2: Uh, I think I'm gonna take. I think we're gonna

2004
01:31:28,520 --> 01:31:31,080
Speaker 2: add a fourth rookie quarterback to this list. I think

2005
01:31:31,120 --> 01:31:34,519
Speaker 2: Jayen Daniels and the Commanders get it done. The key

2006
01:31:34,680 --> 01:31:37,600
Speaker 2: for me is that what the Washington Commanders did. They

2007
01:31:37,640 --> 01:31:41,520
Speaker 2: spent more than anybody to trade deadline to get Marshaan Lattimore.

2008
01:31:41,760 --> 01:31:43,880
Speaker 2: He's been heard a lot this year, but I know

2009
01:31:44,040 --> 01:31:46,320
Speaker 2: one thing that he does, and that has put Mike

2010
01:31:46,439 --> 01:31:49,640
Speaker 2: Evans in Alcatraz. All right. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers had

2011
01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:52,760
Speaker 2: their their the high point of the season and one

2012
01:31:52,800 --> 01:31:55,160
Speaker 2: that I wonder what Saquon Barkley thought after Mike Evans

2013
01:31:55,439 --> 01:31:58,400
Speaker 2: caught that that six yard pass he saw getting mobbed

2014
01:31:58,439 --> 01:32:01,080
Speaker 2: on the sidelines. Everybody was having about it. I think

2015
01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:03,640
Speaker 2: that might be the last happy moment in Tampa. As

2016
01:32:03,760 --> 01:32:06,000
Speaker 2: Jaydon Daniels runs through at a seque Barkley to sit

2017
01:32:06,040 --> 01:32:07,240
Speaker 2: there like I wanted to do that too.

2018
01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:10,439
Speaker 3: I'm with Martin on this. Man, give me Washington here.

2019
01:32:10,520 --> 01:32:12,639
Speaker 3: We talked so much about the quarterback in the office.

2020
01:32:12,720 --> 01:32:15,240
Speaker 3: Nobody ever mentioned that this is the thirteenth rank defense

2021
01:32:15,520 --> 01:32:17,559
Speaker 3: in the National Football League and these numbers mean something

2022
01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:19,439
Speaker 3: at this point. That's because the regular season is over.

2023
01:32:19,680 --> 01:32:22,040
Speaker 3: That means this is what they were. Why dan Quinn's

2024
01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:22,679
Speaker 3: their head coach?

2025
01:32:22,920 --> 01:32:23,280
Speaker 1: What is he?

2026
01:32:23,439 --> 01:32:25,920
Speaker 3: A defensive minded type guy? You don't need an offensive

2027
01:32:25,920 --> 01:32:27,439
Speaker 3: guy on this team because you got Jaden and you

2028
01:32:27,520 --> 01:32:30,080
Speaker 3: got the offensive coordinator that he needs for him. It's

2029
01:32:30,120 --> 01:32:32,360
Speaker 3: gonna work out for them. Just fine, Tampa. I hate

2030
01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:34,680
Speaker 3: to say this, man, everybody wants to fire their head coach.

2031
01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:36,679
Speaker 3: They don't think that he's been done well with this team.

2032
01:32:37,080 --> 01:32:40,200
Speaker 3: And I once again Marshawn Lattimore and Mike Evans locked

2033
01:32:40,280 --> 01:32:41,959
Speaker 3: up again tomorrow.

2034
01:32:42,040 --> 01:32:43,680
Speaker 2: How you like that matchup? Right there?

2035
01:32:44,040 --> 01:32:47,360
Speaker 3: And I think Washington, listen, they're twelve and five this year.

2036
01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:49,600
Speaker 3: This is another Johnny cum Lately team. They were a

2037
01:32:49,680 --> 01:32:52,680
Speaker 3: better football team than the Buccaneers all year long. I

2038
01:32:52,800 --> 01:32:55,280
Speaker 3: just don't see Tampa all of a sudden rising up

2039
01:32:55,320 --> 01:32:57,720
Speaker 3: tomorrow in the primetime game just because they're at home.

2040
01:32:57,880 --> 01:33:00,080
Speaker 3: I think Tampa gets beat at home. Gimme Washington to

2041
01:33:00,120 --> 01:33:01,559
Speaker 3: move on. Is the lower seed in the playoffs?

2042
01:33:01,800 --> 01:33:02,160
Speaker 2: All right?

2043
01:33:02,280 --> 01:33:04,040
Speaker 6: Last one here, This one should be a good one.

2044
01:33:04,080 --> 01:33:07,759
Speaker 6: You got Sean McVay and the Rams hosting his former protege,

2045
01:33:07,960 --> 01:33:11,639
Speaker 6: his former offensive coordinator, and Kevin O'Connell. They're hosting the Vikings,

2046
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:14,000
Speaker 6: so uh, sort of hosting.

2047
01:33:13,760 --> 01:33:18,400
Speaker 2: The Vikings as both teams will be in Glendale, Vietna.

2048
01:33:18,720 --> 01:33:20,439
Speaker 3: And that's what and that's what swung it for me

2049
01:33:20,640 --> 01:33:23,200
Speaker 3: right there, advantage absolutely.

2050
01:33:23,320 --> 01:33:24,200
Speaker 2: Also, it's two and a half.

2051
01:33:24,520 --> 01:33:26,000
Speaker 3: By the way, I guess it's gonna be a I

2052
01:33:26,040 --> 01:33:27,600
Speaker 3: think it's gonna be a tight game. It's hard to

2053
01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:30,080
Speaker 3: beat the same team twice, even in division the regular season.

2054
01:33:30,160 --> 01:33:32,800
Speaker 3: Let's you're just flat out better Thursday night football out here.

2055
01:33:32,920 --> 01:33:35,400
Speaker 3: So far Vikers came out here, Rams beat them up,

2056
01:33:35,479 --> 01:33:37,880
Speaker 3: beat them up pretty good that night too. But also

2057
01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:41,280
Speaker 3: to everything that's going on and having a game move, guys,

2058
01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:43,920
Speaker 3: what do you believe this is gonna affect, not maybe

2059
01:33:43,960 --> 01:33:45,960
Speaker 3: affect how they played, but just the mindset because you've

2060
01:33:45,960 --> 01:33:47,519
Speaker 3: got a lot going on home. You want to be

2061
01:33:47,600 --> 01:33:49,839
Speaker 3: focused and locked in here. You have as many handlers

2062
01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:51,880
Speaker 3: handled things as you can. But it's still a real

2063
01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:54,400
Speaker 3: life thing. And once again this game being moved out

2064
01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:58,960
Speaker 3: of La Man. Wow, congratulations, congratulations Sam Darnold, You got

2065
01:33:59,080 --> 01:34:01,360
Speaker 3: lucky buddy. Now you are gonna say, well, he won

2066
01:34:01,439 --> 01:34:04,160
Speaker 3: a playoff game VJ. But they do have a lot

2067
01:34:04,200 --> 01:34:06,000
Speaker 3: of weapons of office. The best receiver in football in

2068
01:34:06,120 --> 01:34:08,800
Speaker 3: one of the top five defenses and football they turned

2069
01:34:08,800 --> 01:34:10,280
Speaker 3: the ball over on you, guys, and they get to

2070
01:34:10,360 --> 01:34:13,599
Speaker 3: the quarterback when he blitz all about Floresa's defense. Go ahead,

2071
01:34:13,600 --> 01:34:15,960
Speaker 3: and give me the Vikens here to pull this off. Reluctantly,

2072
01:34:16,800 --> 01:34:18,320
Speaker 3: I want to pick the Rams, but they're not homing

2073
01:34:18,439 --> 01:34:19,479
Speaker 3: to me. That's everything.

2074
01:34:19,520 --> 01:34:21,679
Speaker 2: I'm taking the Rams here. I don't like what Saam

2075
01:34:21,800 --> 01:34:24,439
Speaker 2: Donald put on tape against the Lions. That's concerning. That

2076
01:34:24,640 --> 01:34:27,880
Speaker 2: was the first, essentially first playoff game of his career.

2077
01:34:28,320 --> 01:34:30,720
Speaker 2: It was on the road. It didn't look good. This

2078
01:34:30,880 --> 01:34:33,160
Speaker 2: game is still on the road. I know it's in Arizona,

2079
01:34:33,240 --> 01:34:35,240
Speaker 2: but you know what, Arizona has a lot of people

2080
01:34:35,280 --> 01:34:37,080
Speaker 2: who moved from LA because it costs way too damn

2081
01:34:37,160 --> 01:34:39,719
Speaker 2: much to live here. All right, I know a handful

2082
01:34:39,760 --> 01:34:42,400
Speaker 2: of people who live in Phoenix right now. And plus two,

2083
01:34:44,560 --> 01:34:46,960
Speaker 2: Sean mcvag made an interesting move in week eighteen as

2084
01:34:46,960 --> 01:34:50,160
Speaker 2: he load managed no doubt about it all of his players.

2085
01:34:50,360 --> 01:34:53,040
Speaker 2: If he doesn't win this game, that backfires in his

2086
01:34:53,160 --> 01:34:57,840
Speaker 2: face spectacularly. I think they win it, though, something about

2087
01:34:57,920 --> 01:34:59,519
Speaker 2: the way that that went down, I think they win it.

2088
01:34:59,600 --> 01:35:04,960
Speaker 2: They deaf covered. Can I change my pick? Allow it?

2089
01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:05,560
Speaker 2: I'll allow it.

2090
01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:09,479
Speaker 3: I'm changing my pick. I'm changing my pick. Man, forget

2091
01:35:09,520 --> 01:35:11,880
Speaker 3: everything I said. Wipe it away. Rise up, l A,

2092
01:35:12,640 --> 01:35:16,160
Speaker 3: Rise up. We just put the same right going a

2093
01:35:16,280 --> 01:35:18,280
Speaker 3: lot going on. You know, I'm changing my mind. Real talk,

2094
01:35:18,360 --> 01:35:20,640
Speaker 3: no jokes, no entertainment, A lot going on out here.

2095
01:35:20,720 --> 01:35:21,559
Speaker 2: Man, I'm Rams.

2096
01:35:21,640 --> 01:35:24,000
Speaker 3: Let's go Rams go out here in the Rams go

2097
01:35:24,080 --> 01:35:26,240
Speaker 3: out here, and they fight everything that they're going to do.

2098
01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:28,720
Speaker 3: That's what's gonna happen. At one point he said, is right,

2099
01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:30,800
Speaker 3: but something I've been saying for a long time. But

2100
01:35:30,880 --> 01:35:33,880
Speaker 3: Sam Donald did put some real pissport tape out against

2101
01:35:33,880 --> 01:35:35,760
Speaker 3: the lines. It looked really and it hasn't looked good

2102
01:35:35,800 --> 01:35:37,640
Speaker 3: in like the last month. Guys, it's looked okay, that

2103
01:35:37,640 --> 01:35:40,439
Speaker 3: doesn't look great. I'll say it last month is that

2104
01:35:40,560 --> 01:35:42,360
Speaker 3: he's got one game in the last month that looked great.

2105
01:35:42,360 --> 01:35:44,760
Speaker 3: The rest of it's kind of like okay, but no, man,

2106
01:35:45,360 --> 01:35:46,960
Speaker 3: I'm I live in La Now, I'm home now, Man,

2107
01:35:47,040 --> 01:35:48,560
Speaker 3: this is my home. I'm not a fan, but I

2108
01:35:48,800 --> 01:35:49,280
Speaker 3: go with the Rams.

2109
01:35:49,360 --> 01:35:50,120
Speaker 2: Rams. Get this done.

2110
01:35:50,200 --> 01:35:53,720
Speaker 3: So against every game the same except for Bill's Broncos.

2111
01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:56,320
Speaker 6: Correct, that'll be the differentiator here.

2112
01:35:56,360 --> 01:35:57,880
Speaker 2: But we got more rounds. I'm about to say this.

2113
01:35:57,960 --> 01:35:59,920
Speaker 2: We're carrying us away to the super Bowl, right, yeah,

2114
01:36:00,200 --> 01:36:01,600
Speaker 2: we want to do the Pro Bowl in if you

2115
01:36:01,640 --> 01:36:03,920
Speaker 2: want so, I'm not gonna do that. You don't want

2116
01:36:03,920 --> 01:36:05,920
Speaker 2: we should flick the Super Bowl? Now, who wins the NFC,

2117
01:36:05,960 --> 01:36:08,160
Speaker 2: wh wins the AFC? Who wins the whole thing? No,

2118
01:36:08,320 --> 01:36:09,360
Speaker 2: we have to wait t these games.

2119
01:36:09,360 --> 01:36:12,080
Speaker 6: Well, this won't count for official picks, but just predictions,

2120
01:36:12,160 --> 01:36:12,640
Speaker 6: like if you go.

2121
01:36:14,560 --> 01:36:15,880
Speaker 3: I'm sticking with my pick from August.

2122
01:36:15,880 --> 01:36:18,360
Speaker 2: I have the Eagles winning at all. That's my pick

2123
01:36:18,439 --> 01:36:18,840
Speaker 2: in August.

2124
01:36:19,439 --> 01:36:23,200
Speaker 3: So the AFC oh Chiefs, Oh yeah, yeah, Eagles the

2125
01:36:23,240 --> 01:36:25,800
Speaker 3: chief in a rematch from two years ago, and Jalen hurts.

2126
01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:28,960
Speaker 3: He he he atones for the fumble Scooper score right

2127
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:31,040
Speaker 3: before the half that really kept the Chiefs in that

2128
01:36:31,120 --> 01:36:33,960
Speaker 3: game and helped them win that games win the Super Bowl.

2129
01:36:33,960 --> 01:36:36,599
Speaker 2: What's fascinating about that is so many times you'll hear

2130
01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:40,120
Speaker 2: people say, and Jalen played well in that loss. That's

2131
01:36:40,160 --> 01:36:42,840
Speaker 2: like they completely forget about that play right there. But

2132
01:36:42,920 --> 01:36:46,280
Speaker 2: he did play. I'm not I'm not knocking that he well,

2133
01:36:46,520 --> 01:36:48,639
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go that far, okay, but I'm not knocking

2134
01:36:48,680 --> 01:36:50,559
Speaker 2: that he did. He played well, sure, but he also

2135
01:36:50,640 --> 01:36:55,320
Speaker 2: had very played fumble that the game. That's fine, but

2136
01:36:55,400 --> 01:36:56,920
Speaker 2: that doesn't mean he didn't play great. Sticking with my

2137
01:36:57,000 --> 01:36:59,840
Speaker 2: preseason predictions, that's the Lions and the Chiefs, with the

2138
01:37:00,080 --> 01:37:06,120
Speaker 2: Lions hoisting their first Lombardi Trophy in NFL history. Forward

2139
01:37:06,280 --> 01:37:08,800
Speaker 2: down the field. Coming up next, we'll dive more into

2140
01:37:09,240 --> 01:37:14,519
Speaker 2: the two seven matchup in the NFC. Will history repeat itself?

2141
01:37:16,040 --> 01:37:17,960

01:37:25,520 --> 01:37:29,120
Speaker 2: here on a Fox Sports Football Saturday. As we watched

2145
01:37:29,560 --> 01:37:33,880
Speaker 2: Justin Mattebuque, sach Russell Wilson on third down, the Steelers

2146
01:37:34,320 --> 01:37:36,800
Speaker 2: showing signs of life in the third quarter. Thanks for

2147
01:37:36,920 --> 01:37:40,080
Speaker 2: coming Pittsburgh, Steve the Sacred will have everything on that

Speaker 2: game in just a minute. And after Steve, we'll have JD.

2149
01:37:42,680 --> 01:37:45,960
Speaker 2: Pakel help us break down the National Championship game in

2150
01:37:46,240 --> 01:37:50,559
Speaker 2: college football. But right now, VJ. You said last week

2151
01:37:50,680 --> 01:37:54,599
Speaker 2: that if Sakwon Barkley doesn't get the record to fire

2152
01:37:55,080 --> 01:37:59,320
Speaker 2: Nick sirian Well he didn't didn't play. Dick Sirianni kept

2153
01:37:59,360 --> 01:38:01,960
Speaker 2: his job. Not gonna be playing host through the Green

2154
01:38:02,040 --> 01:38:04,639
Speaker 2: Bay Packers coming up? What do you expect to see

2155
01:38:04,800 --> 01:38:05,400
Speaker 2: in this game?

2156
01:38:06,640 --> 01:38:09,240
Speaker 3: I think Saint Kwan's gonna go off. I think they've

2157
01:38:09,280 --> 01:38:11,640
Speaker 3: gotten enough rest. I think Jalen Hurts is gonna be

2158
01:38:11,800 --> 01:38:16,040
Speaker 3: just fine, man, honest, I think the Packers have a

2159
01:38:16,120 --> 01:38:18,720
Speaker 3: really good offense. This idea and is narrative that I

2160
01:38:18,840 --> 01:38:21,800
Speaker 3: keep hearing that people don't believe in Jordan love Well.

2161
01:38:22,320 --> 01:38:24,240
Speaker 3: They have the fifth ranked offense in the league. He's

2162
01:38:24,280 --> 01:38:26,519
Speaker 3: running the offense. Guys, He's the quarterback on the all

2163
01:38:26,600 --> 01:38:29,120
Speaker 3: He's the quarterback that's got the offense out there on

2164
01:38:29,240 --> 01:38:32,519
Speaker 3: the field. Like I'm trying to figure out how people

2165
01:38:32,560 --> 01:38:34,360
Speaker 3: are sold them if they go play well. There's been

2166
01:38:34,400 --> 01:38:37,840
Speaker 3: some questions about the secondary. Even though Philly I believe

2167
01:38:37,880 --> 01:38:39,839
Speaker 3: is number one, number two in the league and pass defense,

2168
01:38:40,080 --> 01:38:42,000
Speaker 3: their top five team in run defense, can't run the

2169
01:38:42,040 --> 01:38:45,599
Speaker 3: ball against them. Carter, Jalen Carter's just asserted himself as

2170
01:38:45,680 --> 01:38:47,680
Speaker 3: like a Vince Wolfolk type player in the middle of

2171
01:38:47,720 --> 01:38:50,360
Speaker 3: that line. You can't move the ball and run against him.

2172
01:38:50,360 --> 01:38:52,000
Speaker 3: But I did see holes when I went back and

2173
01:38:52,080 --> 01:38:54,880
Speaker 3: did some tape study this week on Philly secondary. There

2174
01:38:54,920 --> 01:38:57,639
Speaker 3: are some holes in the secondary. You can't get behind

2175
01:38:57,720 --> 01:39:00,280
Speaker 3: them and beat them. Sometimes their guys lose the ball

2176
01:39:00,720 --> 01:39:03,200
Speaker 3: when they have to turn their head away from the ball.

2177
01:39:03,280 --> 01:39:05,160
Speaker 3: If you know what I mean, If you play defensive back,

2178
01:39:05,200 --> 01:39:06,679
Speaker 3: you know exactly what I'm talking about. If you don't,

2179
01:39:07,200 --> 01:39:08,439
Speaker 3: I'm speaking French to you right now.

2180
01:39:08,479 --> 01:39:08,840
Speaker 2: I get it.

2181
01:39:09,200 --> 01:39:13,200
Speaker 3: But they lose the ball and Jordan Love can move

2182
01:39:13,240 --> 01:39:16,040
Speaker 3: in the pocket, he can make plays, he can extend plays.

2183
01:39:16,400 --> 01:39:19,880
Speaker 3: He's a good, young, prospected coming up quarterback.

2184
01:39:20,200 --> 01:39:24,160
Speaker 2: I just he's no longer a prospect. So if you're

2185
01:39:24,240 --> 01:39:26,400
Speaker 2: viewing him like that, okay, wrong word, I can't find

2186
01:39:26,560 --> 01:39:27,040
Speaker 2: wrong word.

2187
01:39:27,120 --> 01:39:29,120
Speaker 3: But I believe in him. I believe in him. Last

2188
01:39:29,160 --> 01:39:31,080
Speaker 3: year I think he's a really good quarterback. Had his

2189
01:39:31,120 --> 01:39:33,960
Speaker 3: team up twice on the road, and you know in

2190
01:39:34,040 --> 01:39:36,439
Speaker 3: games I mean waiting obliterated Dallas and Aarons amass go.

2191
01:39:36,720 --> 01:39:38,680
Speaker 3: They're beating their ass up and down the field too.

2192
01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:40,240
Speaker 3: He didn't end up throwing the two picks, one off

2193
01:39:40,240 --> 01:39:42,320
Speaker 3: of receivers as then the other way through to the defender.

2194
01:39:42,360 --> 01:39:44,720
Speaker 3: And that young guy make mistakes a tone for me.

2195
01:39:44,960 --> 01:39:46,720
Speaker 3: Now here's to your point.

2196
01:39:46,760 --> 01:39:48,519
Speaker 2: Why people don't believe in Jordan Love is because when

2197
01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:51,120
Speaker 2: he throws over for over twenty and fifty yards, he

2198
01:39:51,200 --> 01:39:51,840
Speaker 2: turns the ball over.

2199
01:39:52,120 --> 01:39:54,200
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, if that's the stat people want to point to.

2200
01:39:54,320 --> 01:39:56,280
Speaker 3: All Right, fine, I'm not I don't have any time

2201
01:39:56,320 --> 01:39:59,400
Speaker 3: to even try to find something around thirty times he

2202
01:39:59,439 --> 01:40:01,559
Speaker 3: throws it in the The question I want to ask

2203
01:40:01,640 --> 01:40:04,120
Speaker 3: you is is okay? Actually? Is that why you don't

2204
01:40:04,120 --> 01:40:06,439
Speaker 3: believe him because of those two stats you just read? Yeah, okay,

2205
01:40:06,720 --> 01:40:07,680
Speaker 3: it was reckless with the ball.

2206
01:40:07,720 --> 01:40:10,000
Speaker 2: He turns the ball over too much, and he doesn't

2207
01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:13,120
Speaker 2: his form is not He throws too many fade away

2208
01:40:13,400 --> 01:40:17,519
Speaker 2: like like he as he goes back to throw, he's back.

2209
01:40:17,600 --> 01:40:20,000
Speaker 2: He's normally always off his back foot, and that just

2210
01:40:20,560 --> 01:40:25,439
Speaker 2: causes inaccuracy and inconsistency. Okay, Like his fundamentals aren't there,

2211
01:40:25,640 --> 01:40:27,679
Speaker 2: and that's why you know it shows in his play.

2212
01:40:27,880 --> 01:40:29,800
Speaker 3: And I think it's fun. I think it's I think

2213
01:40:29,800 --> 01:40:32,360
Speaker 3: it's fundamental. It's a fine thing. He's every every quarterback.

2214
01:40:32,400 --> 01:40:34,600
Speaker 3: I believe very few have something they still need to

2215
01:40:34,640 --> 01:40:37,519
Speaker 3: work on. But about the game, I think there's an

2216
01:40:37,640 --> 01:40:39,760
Speaker 3: upset this weekend. We know it didn't happen in the

2217
01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:42,439
Speaker 3: earlier games, not gonna happen in the game tonight between

2218
01:40:42,520 --> 01:40:45,559
Speaker 3: Tomorrow morning and Monday night. And one of these role

2219
01:40:45,640 --> 01:40:48,240
Speaker 3: teams we both picked Washington but I don't think anybody

2220
01:40:48,360 --> 01:40:49,879
Speaker 3: think that's a big upset.

2221
01:40:50,200 --> 01:40:52,439
Speaker 2: I don't. They've been the better team.

2222
01:40:52,520 --> 01:40:54,360
Speaker 3: Day are twelve if I they want twelve games this year,

2223
01:40:54,680 --> 01:40:57,240
Speaker 3: and you know, battling the likes of Dallas that still

2224
01:40:57,280 --> 01:40:58,880
Speaker 3: kept fighting even though at the back the Giants that

2225
01:40:58,960 --> 01:41:00,680
Speaker 3: were bad but didn't get blown out of a lot

2226
01:41:00,680 --> 01:41:02,439
Speaker 3: of games, didn't give up and quit. We didn't talk

2227
01:41:02,439 --> 01:41:05,080
Speaker 3: about their players quitting on Brian Dable. People are surprised

2228
01:41:05,120 --> 01:41:07,800
Speaker 3: that he's still there. They retain them, but obviously they

2229
01:41:07,880 --> 01:41:10,400
Speaker 3: believe in him. The players believe in them moving forward.

2230
01:41:10,479 --> 01:41:15,320
Speaker 3: But there has to be something said about one of

2231
01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:17,800
Speaker 3: these road teams going and winning these games. And we've

2232
01:41:17,920 --> 01:41:20,640
Speaker 3: seen Green Bay do it, and we gave them no

2233
01:41:20,800 --> 01:41:22,599
Speaker 3: shot to do it against Dallas, and we're giving them

2234
01:41:22,680 --> 01:41:25,920
Speaker 3: no shot this year to do it against Philly. What

2235
01:41:26,040 --> 01:41:28,920
Speaker 3: I find confusing, not confusing, but really interesting and real quick.

2236
01:41:28,920 --> 01:41:30,240
Speaker 3: I know we got to get to Steven and JD

2237
01:41:30,880 --> 01:41:33,920
Speaker 3: is the fact that we'll say this about you know,

2238
01:41:34,680 --> 01:41:36,760
Speaker 3: Jordan Love. We don't believe in him, we don't believe it.

2239
01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:39,840
Speaker 3: We don't believe in them. But there are people that

2240
01:41:39,960 --> 01:41:42,240
Speaker 3: think bow Knicks can go win this game in Buffalo tomorrow,

2241
01:41:42,320 --> 01:41:44,599
Speaker 3: Like it just doesn't make sense. We've seen one guy

2242
01:41:44,680 --> 01:41:46,479
Speaker 3: go on the road and win a playoff game. We've

2243
01:41:46,520 --> 01:41:48,840
Speaker 3: seen him do it, so that that just confused me.

2244
01:41:48,920 --> 01:41:52,040
Speaker 2: But you tell me that Josh Jacobs is gonna run

2245
01:41:52,080 --> 01:41:53,640
Speaker 2: for the two hundreds some of yards Aaron Jones did

2246
01:41:53,680 --> 01:41:55,559
Speaker 2: in last playoff games. I tell you the Packers gonna

2247
01:41:55,560 --> 01:41:58,240
Speaker 2: win too. But right now, we have some developments in

2248
01:41:58,400 --> 01:42:01,120
Speaker 2: this game. Third and three come Steve the Seger. With

2249
01:42:01,320 --> 01:42:04,120
Speaker 2: everything going on in Baltimore, Pittsburgh and everywhere else and

2250
01:42:04,120 --> 01:42:04,959
Speaker 2: sports Steve.

2251
01:42:04,880 --> 01:42:07,160
Speaker 8: We do have developments, but it's not like the Steelers

2252
01:42:07,200 --> 01:42:09,960
Speaker 8: are suddenly down three and a chance to continue the season.

2253
01:42:10,040 --> 01:42:12,599
Speaker 3: Right I've been watching a lot of breaking news. It's

2254
01:42:12,600 --> 01:42:14,679
Speaker 3: if you just heard last Hour all week.

2255
01:42:14,760 --> 01:42:16,240
Speaker 2: So maybe that's my bad home.

2256
01:42:16,400 --> 01:42:18,880
Speaker 8: Well, there's been actual breaking news with that, well to

2257
01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:20,960
Speaker 8: say the least. But they've just started the fourth quarter,

2258
01:42:21,320 --> 01:42:23,400
Speaker 8: Ravens with the ball and the lead at home. It's

2259
01:42:23,479 --> 01:42:26,600
Speaker 8: twenty eight to fourteen over Pittsburgh, and yes, they just

2260
01:42:26,720 --> 01:42:30,839
Speaker 8: converted the third and three. Lamar Jackson two touchdown passes.

2261
01:42:31,320 --> 01:42:34,320
Speaker 8: Derrick Henry of the Ravens nineteen carries one hundred and

2262
01:42:34,400 --> 01:42:37,920
Speaker 8: sixty two yards rushing and two touchdowns. Now the Steelers,

2263
01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:40,400
Speaker 8: down twenty one nothing at the break, did get a

2264
01:42:40,600 --> 01:42:43,280
Speaker 8: couple of TV passes from Russell Wilson in the third

2265
01:42:43,400 --> 01:42:45,680
Speaker 8: quarter to make it a game won, a thirty yarder won,

2266
01:42:45,760 --> 01:42:48,560
Speaker 8: a thirty six yarder, but Pittsburgh on the ground so

2267
01:42:48,720 --> 01:42:52,360
Speaker 8: far ten carries twenty four yards rushing as a team.

2268
01:42:52,880 --> 01:42:55,280
Speaker 8: In fact, the Steelers came in with a four game

2269
01:42:55,360 --> 01:42:58,280
Speaker 8: losing streak and a long losing streak of playoff games

2270
01:42:58,320 --> 01:43:00,800
Speaker 8: over the years. And we're down twenty one to nothing

2271
01:43:00,880 --> 01:43:02,640
Speaker 8: on the road at the half tonight, which meant that

2272
01:43:02,720 --> 01:43:05,919
Speaker 8: the Steelers have now trailed by double digits at halftime

2273
01:43:06,080 --> 01:43:10,799
Speaker 8: in five straight playoff games, my goodness. And the Steelers

2274
01:43:10,840 --> 01:43:13,679
Speaker 8: haven't even had the ball with the lead, not even

2275
01:43:13,840 --> 01:43:17,400
Speaker 8: once in their last six playoff games. AP says you'd

2276
01:43:17,439 --> 01:43:19,439
Speaker 8: have to go back almost five years to find their

2277
01:43:19,520 --> 01:43:21,920
Speaker 8: only lead in that whole time in the postseason, and

2278
01:43:22,000 --> 01:43:24,320
Speaker 8: that came when the defense scored on a fumble return

2279
01:43:24,760 --> 01:43:27,200
Speaker 8: and the opponent tied the game on their next possession.

2280
01:43:27,760 --> 01:43:30,240
Speaker 8: Mike Tomlin, if he drops this one, will have lost

2281
01:43:30,320 --> 01:43:34,480
Speaker 8: six straight playoff games. The NFL record is seven postseason

2282
01:43:34,600 --> 01:43:37,640
Speaker 8: losses in a row by a coach, Marvin Lewis of

2283
01:43:37,760 --> 01:43:41,320
Speaker 8: the Bengals. It is twenty eight to fourteen, twelve minutes

2284
01:43:41,360 --> 01:43:44,320
Speaker 8: to go in the fourth quarter. Ravens lead and have

2285
01:43:44,520 --> 01:43:47,400
Speaker 8: the ball. Raven's going for a fifth straight win. Earlier

2286
01:43:47,479 --> 01:43:50,439
Speaker 8: in AFC Wildcard game at Houston went to the Texans

2287
01:43:50,479 --> 01:43:54,040
Speaker 8: over the Chargers thirty two to twelve. Nicocollins guest of

01:43:54,200 --> 01:43:57,360
Speaker 8: ours earlier tonight seven receptions one hundred and twenty two

2289

Speaker 8: yards in a score Houston led ten to six in

2290
01:44:00,400 --> 01:44:03,120
Speaker 8: the third quarter, a total of seven turnovers in that game.

Speaker 3: Back to you, thanks Steve, Joey Porter Jujus made a

2308
01:45:04,840 --> 01:45:07,240
Speaker 3: big play on third down, forcing fourth down, But it

2309
01:45:07,360 --> 01:45:11,439
Speaker 3: looks like Mark Andrews with a modified toush push converts

2310
01:45:11,520 --> 01:45:13,880
Speaker 3: the first down, keeps Baltimore with the ball.

2311
01:45:14,280 --> 01:45:17,040
Speaker 2: But right now, let's kick it over to JD pikel

2312

Speaker 2: the Wan down of college football on three College Football Insider.

2316
01:45:26,840 --> 01:45:27,360
Speaker 2: you my friend?

2317
01:45:28,080 --> 01:45:30,920
Speaker 7: Brother? I'm doing phenomenal fire out be back on with y'all,

2318
01:45:31,479 --> 01:45:35,200
Speaker 7: blots talk about the stages set. We're gonna have ourselves

2319
01:45:35,240 --> 01:45:36,760
Speaker 7: a national championship. Man, I fired up.

2320
01:45:36,920 --> 01:45:39,880
Speaker 2: We are gonna have a national championship. You know, some

2321
01:45:40,080 --> 01:45:42,720
Speaker 2: people doubted it, but in a playoff, did in fact

2322
01:45:42,920 --> 01:45:45,439
Speaker 2: maybe get two teams that we were happy with? All

2323
01:45:45,520 --> 01:45:47,640
Speaker 2: said done, let's take a look into rearview mirror. Go

2324
01:45:47,800 --> 01:45:51,720
Speaker 2: back to Penn State Notre Dame. Quickly? What do you

2325
01:45:51,760 --> 01:45:55,559
Speaker 2: see out of Marcus Freeman? Who is vj's quickly rising,

2326
01:45:55,640 --> 01:45:58,120
Speaker 2: if not number one on his favorite person list, he

2327
01:45:58,280 --> 01:46:01,600
Speaker 2: is top three and not three. And then also with

2328
01:46:01,760 --> 01:46:05,000
Speaker 2: James Franklin, and the question, has James Franklin won a

2329
01:46:05,040 --> 01:46:05,559
Speaker 2: big game?

2330
01:46:07,880 --> 01:46:09,600
Speaker 7: Man, there's a lot to umpact there. I'd love to

2331
01:46:09,720 --> 01:46:11,960
Speaker 7: know the top three of that list as well, because

2332
01:46:12,000 --> 01:46:14,639
Speaker 7: I think I could. I mean, Marcus Freeman is definitely

2333
01:46:14,640 --> 01:46:15,599
Speaker 7: in my top three as well.

2334
01:46:15,680 --> 01:46:15,920
Speaker 2: Right now.

2335
01:46:15,920 --> 01:46:19,080
Speaker 1: I mean it is just so right, right, I mean.

2336
01:46:19,080 --> 01:46:21,000
Speaker 7: When was the last time we had a Notre Dame

2337
01:46:21,080 --> 01:46:24,000
Speaker 7: team like this that was as likable as they are?

2338
01:46:24,760 --> 01:46:24,920
Speaker 4: Right?

2339
01:46:25,200 --> 01:46:27,000
Speaker 7: You know the funny part about the pend start. I'll

2340
01:46:27,000 --> 01:46:30,320
Speaker 7: start with Notre Dame. Like you look at the box score,

2341
01:46:31,360 --> 01:46:33,479
Speaker 7: there was no reason Notre Dame should have won that game.

2342
01:46:33,520 --> 01:46:35,880
Speaker 7: Like they were out rushed by hundred yards, they got

2343
01:46:35,960 --> 01:46:39,400
Speaker 7: sacked five times to their one. They got home Andrew

2344
01:46:39,479 --> 01:46:41,519
Speaker 7: Aller like, there's a lot of things where you're like this,

2345
01:46:41,680 --> 01:46:43,439
Speaker 7: this doesn't make any sense why they should win. This

2346
01:46:43,520 --> 01:46:46,240
Speaker 7: team just they just find a way, man. And it's

2347
01:46:46,320 --> 01:46:49,360
Speaker 7: cliche and it's it's you know, stuff that you talk

2348
01:46:49,400 --> 01:46:51,720
Speaker 7: about when you do like those cheesy sports movies. But

2349
01:46:51,840 --> 01:46:54,479
Speaker 7: like this team just just finds the way. Like Riley Leonard,

2350
01:46:54,479 --> 01:46:56,880
Speaker 7: God bless him. I don't think he's like all that

2351
01:46:57,720 --> 01:46:59,720
Speaker 7: phenomenal if you were to put him in a pro disc.

2352
01:47:00,040 --> 01:47:03,200
Speaker 7: But the dude is gritty, and that's just this team.

2353
01:47:03,280 --> 01:47:03,400
Speaker 9: Man.

2354
01:47:03,439 --> 01:47:05,680
Speaker 7: They're grimy, they're gritty, they find a way. And so

2355
01:47:05,880 --> 01:47:07,680
Speaker 7: that nine and a half point spread, Like we'll talk

2356
01:47:07,720 --> 01:47:09,639
Speaker 7: about Ohio's data, I'm sure, but nine and a half

2357
01:47:10,560 --> 01:47:12,679
Speaker 7: a little bit disrespectful on the on the Penn State

2358
01:47:12,760 --> 01:47:16,519
Speaker 7: side of things. I don't have an issue with James

2359
01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:18,240
Speaker 7: Franklin as much as I have an issue with the

2360
01:47:18,439 --> 01:47:22,680
Speaker 7: roster construction, which maybe you put that on James Franklin. Man,

2361
01:47:22,680 --> 01:47:25,840
Speaker 7: they scored twenty four points and a receiver didn't have

2362
01:47:25,920 --> 01:47:28,800
Speaker 7: a catch. Like I get Drew Aller that that, you know,

2363
01:47:29,040 --> 01:47:31,120
Speaker 7: huge mistake, but like they were just finding ways to

2364
01:47:31,200 --> 01:47:34,360
Speaker 7: make it work man, Like Tyler Warren's phenomenal. They were

2365
01:47:34,400 --> 01:47:36,280
Speaker 7: running the ball at a high level. I think Coltanecki,

2366
01:47:36,360 --> 01:47:40,120
Speaker 7: the offensive coordinator, did a great job. It's unfortunate that,

2367
01:47:40,320 --> 01:47:42,320
Speaker 7: you know, the game went how it went for James Franklin.

2368
01:47:42,360 --> 01:47:44,040
Speaker 7: I think he's a good coach. I don't think you

2369
01:47:44,120 --> 01:47:46,640
Speaker 7: get to that spot without being a good coach. But

2370
01:47:47,040 --> 01:47:49,120
Speaker 7: you know, you look in the rear view mirror. If

2371
01:47:49,160 --> 01:47:51,880
Speaker 7: you're a Penn State fan, you're like, Okay, had two

2372
01:47:52,000 --> 01:47:54,200
Speaker 7: games that you know, quite frankly, we should have one

2373
01:47:54,320 --> 01:47:57,400
Speaker 7: based on our roster versus their roster play a comparable

2374
01:47:57,439 --> 01:48:01,160
Speaker 7: opponent in the biggest spot of our really our entire pro.

2375
01:48:03,040 --> 01:48:03,960
Speaker 2: Under go down.

2376
01:48:04,280 --> 01:48:04,479
Speaker 6: Yeah.

2377
01:48:04,920 --> 01:48:06,760
Speaker 7: So, I mean there's a lot to unpacked there. But

2378
01:48:08,360 --> 01:48:10,599
Speaker 7: I don't blame Penn State fans for how they feel.

2379
01:48:10,800 --> 01:48:12,960
Speaker 7: They got to hit the Portland find some receivers at

2380
01:48:13,240 --> 01:48:14,559
Speaker 7: a quick fast in hurry.

2381
01:48:15,320 --> 01:48:17,120
Speaker 3: What's going on, JD, how's the little one in a

2382
01:48:17,160 --> 01:48:19,559
Speaker 3: new addition to the family, And how's the missus field? Man?

2383
01:48:19,640 --> 01:48:22,960
Speaker 7: You guys, good man, we're finding our shride man, I

2384
01:48:23,000 --> 01:48:25,720
Speaker 7: appreciate it. We're locking in for this Natty that they've

2385
01:48:25,760 --> 01:48:28,439
Speaker 7: been in playoff mode. My daughter had a future in

2386
01:48:28,479 --> 01:48:31,360
Speaker 7: on Ohio State early, so she's she's ready to cast out.

2387
01:48:31,400 --> 01:48:33,600
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, well yeah, Martin claims he wins e

2388
01:48:33,720 --> 01:48:34,360
Speaker 3: the way in this game.

2389
01:48:34,439 --> 01:48:34,760
Speaker 2: I don't.

2390
01:48:34,840 --> 01:48:36,679
Speaker 3: I'm a Michigan guy. You know how I feel about

2391
01:48:36,680 --> 01:48:39,280
Speaker 3: both these schools. And if you don't know, listeners, now

2392
01:48:39,360 --> 01:48:42,000
Speaker 3: you know, go look it up. I want to zone

2393
01:48:42,040 --> 01:48:43,720
Speaker 3: in on this Penn State Notre Dame game because you

2394
01:48:43,720 --> 01:48:47,000
Speaker 3: said something very very important there is that they probably

2395
01:48:47,040 --> 01:48:48,519
Speaker 3: had no business winning this game.

2396
01:48:48,960 --> 01:48:51,160
Speaker 2: But doesn't that make this team that much better?

2397
01:48:51,240 --> 01:48:53,479
Speaker 3: Doesn't that make Marcus Freeman that much better of a

2398
01:48:53,560 --> 01:48:56,320
Speaker 3: coaching that much better of a top person on my list?

2399
01:48:56,479 --> 01:48:59,080
Speaker 3: That when you win a game that you're not supposed

2400
01:48:59,120 --> 01:49:01,960
Speaker 3: to win, your team takes advantage of the mistakes that

2401
01:49:02,000 --> 01:49:02,439
Speaker 3: they put out.

2402
01:49:02,560 --> 01:49:04,560
Speaker 2: Number one mistake I put out. You talk about not

2403
01:49:04,640 --> 01:49:05,200
Speaker 2: having a receiver.

2404
01:49:05,320 --> 01:49:07,720
Speaker 3: All right, fine, how about Nicholas Singleton having more than

2405
01:49:07,760 --> 01:49:08,519
Speaker 3: fifteen carries?

2406
01:49:08,680 --> 01:49:09,160
Speaker 2: How about that?

2407
01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:12,320
Speaker 3: Let's not get Kyron Allen more carries than were giving

2408
01:49:12,360 --> 01:49:15,800
Speaker 3: a guy that scoring three touchdowns. And that's been the explosive,

2409
01:49:16,360 --> 01:49:18,200
Speaker 3: the explosive if on the Notre Dame side going into

2410
01:49:18,280 --> 01:49:20,160
Speaker 3: this Ohio State game, I told you a few weeks

2411
01:49:20,160 --> 01:49:21,840
Speaker 3: ago when we first started talking about this bracket. I

2412
01:49:21,880 --> 01:49:24,200
Speaker 3: looked at the brackets, A JD. No one's talking about No.

2413
01:49:24,240 --> 01:49:26,559
Speaker 3: One's talking about Notre Dame, and they're beating everybody about

2414
01:49:26,560 --> 01:49:28,720
Speaker 3: thirty seven points after the North Andllinois and loss. And

2415
01:49:28,840 --> 01:49:30,599
Speaker 3: I've told you you asked me to pick a team.

2416
01:49:30,600 --> 01:49:33,120
Speaker 3: I go, dude, they're gonna win this whole thing. Change

2417
01:49:33,160 --> 01:49:35,080
Speaker 3: my mind. They're gonna go in. They're gonna beat this

2418
01:49:35,160 --> 01:49:37,439
Speaker 3: Ohio State team. I much rather see them win it

2419
01:49:37,560 --> 01:49:38,360
Speaker 3: than Ohio State.

2420
01:49:39,560 --> 01:49:42,600
Speaker 7: No, So I'll start with giving your flowers on that,

2421
01:49:42,640 --> 01:49:45,240
Speaker 7: because Notre Dame absolutely made a run. I mean, and

2422
01:49:45,320 --> 01:49:47,320
Speaker 7: what you said is on the money, like the fact

2423
01:49:47,439 --> 01:49:49,760
Speaker 7: that there were all these things in the box score

2424
01:49:49,800 --> 01:49:51,640
Speaker 7: you point to you as to why they shouldn't have one,

2425
01:49:51,680 --> 01:49:53,960
Speaker 7: And they did like to me that they have this

2426
01:49:54,400 --> 01:49:57,719
Speaker 7: certain kind of swaggering confidence that again it sounds cliche.

2427
01:49:57,800 --> 01:49:59,639
Speaker 7: It's hard to quantify because you don't see it when

2428
01:49:59,640 --> 01:50:01,680
Speaker 7: you watch the actual game. It doesn't show up in

2429
01:50:01,720 --> 01:50:04,000
Speaker 7: the stat sheet. But like they have that kind of,

2430
01:50:04,479 --> 01:50:07,920
Speaker 7: you know, team of destiny feel. Now, I will say

2431
01:50:08,720 --> 01:50:11,280
Speaker 7: there's some part of me too that wonders Okay, when

2432
01:50:11,320 --> 01:50:13,320
Speaker 7: you get into a spot with an Ohio State, with

2433
01:50:13,560 --> 01:50:17,400
Speaker 7: how talented they are, you know, at what point does

2434
01:50:17,439 --> 01:50:19,200
Speaker 7: the damn break? Like, at what point do you need

2435
01:50:19,320 --> 01:50:22,040
Speaker 7: Ley Leonard to go over two point fifty on the

2436
01:50:22,160 --> 01:50:24,120
Speaker 7: year as a pastor, which he hasn't done all season.

2437
01:50:24,240 --> 01:50:27,160
Speaker 7: So there's some part of me that feels, I think

2438
01:50:27,240 --> 01:50:30,280
Speaker 7: a little bit apprehensive there. But I mean, I'll this

2439
01:50:30,439 --> 01:50:33,080
Speaker 7: is not to give participation trophies out, but like, if

2440
01:50:33,080 --> 01:50:36,080
Speaker 7: I'm a Notre Dame fan, you could stop the season

2441
01:50:36,160 --> 01:50:38,360
Speaker 7: right now. You can roll the credits and like, the

2442
01:50:38,479 --> 01:50:42,080
Speaker 7: trajectory of Notre Dame football under Marcus Freeman is just

2443
01:50:42,200 --> 01:50:44,479
Speaker 7: breathing different oxygen than it was a few i mean

2444
01:50:44,840 --> 01:50:47,160
Speaker 7: months ago, not not just this season, but like, think

2445
01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:50,840
Speaker 7: about this, how often have they had top commitments from

2446
01:50:50,880 --> 01:50:53,559
Speaker 7: the Southeastern part of the United States and then last

2447
01:50:53,600 --> 01:50:56,479
Speaker 7: minute they flipped to Bama, flip to Auburn, and flip

2448
01:50:56,560 --> 01:50:59,080
Speaker 7: to wherever, Like Marcus Freeman can now walk into a

2449
01:50:59,120 --> 01:51:00,479
Speaker 7: living room. Is if you want to go to an

2450
01:51:00,520 --> 01:51:02,960
Speaker 7: SEC school, more power to you. But just remember now,

2451
01:51:03,040 --> 01:51:05,040
Speaker 7: when when we played that big dog in the conference,

2452
01:51:05,080 --> 01:51:08,040
Speaker 7: the team that won the conference. We believe them, so

2453
01:51:08,160 --> 01:51:10,040
Speaker 7: like if you want to do that, but like, by

2454
01:51:10,080 --> 01:51:11,960
Speaker 7: all means do that, but like don't kid yourself and

2455
01:51:12,080 --> 01:51:14,000
Speaker 7: think that you can't compete for whatever you want to

2456
01:51:14,000 --> 01:51:16,760
Speaker 7: compete for and accomplish thing as the highest level of

2457
01:51:16,800 --> 01:51:18,840
Speaker 7: Notre Dame. And that's scary with what he is as

2458
01:51:18,840 --> 01:51:19,280
Speaker 7: a recruiter.

2459
01:51:19,560 --> 01:51:22,400
Speaker 2: JD. I actually think Notre Dame will accomplish the highest

2460
01:51:22,479 --> 01:51:23,400
Speaker 2: lan and win this thing.

2461
01:51:23,479 --> 01:51:23,559
Speaker 7: Now.

2462
01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:26,639
Speaker 2: I have picked against Ohio State each time, but here's

2463
01:51:26,720 --> 01:51:29,920
Speaker 2: the reason why I have a reason this time. They

2464
01:51:30,000 --> 01:51:32,080
Speaker 2: put the blueprint out when Michigan beat Ohio State, run

2465
01:51:32,120 --> 01:51:35,519
Speaker 2: the ball, run the ball, yeah, Penn State. I mean,

2466
01:51:35,760 --> 01:51:37,519
Speaker 2: I mean on Penn State. They did a little bit

2467
01:51:37,760 --> 01:51:40,599
Speaker 2: in their last game, but for whatever reason, got down

2468
01:51:40,680 --> 01:51:42,000
Speaker 2: to the goal line, they would to throw the ball

2469
01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:43,760
Speaker 2: with conuers and it just wasn't working out.

2470
01:51:43,800 --> 01:51:47,800
Speaker 3: You saw to fumble, stripsack all of that. Notre Dame

2471
01:51:47,960 --> 01:51:49,840
Speaker 3: saw what Penn State did have to draw out through

2472
01:51:49,920 --> 01:51:51,320
Speaker 3: that interception. You saw what he said.

2473
01:51:51,360 --> 01:51:53,639
Speaker 2: He said, Riley letted you eight, if you throw this ball,

2474
01:51:53,720 --> 01:51:55,720
Speaker 2: I swear to God. You know he just ran the

2475
01:51:55,800 --> 01:51:58,200
Speaker 2: ball straight with them. He said, I'm not making the

2476
01:51:58,280 --> 01:52:02,479
Speaker 2: same mistake Notre Dame. To me, the way they've won

2477
01:52:02,560 --> 01:52:04,880
Speaker 2: these games, they feel like they have the ability to

2478
01:52:05,000 --> 01:52:08,479
Speaker 2: push Ohio States front around. If you can do that,

2479
01:52:08,960 --> 01:52:10,799
Speaker 2: they can be beat. Do you agree?

2480
01:52:12,000 --> 01:52:13,479
Speaker 7: I think. I think what you're saying is one hundred

2481
01:52:13,479 --> 01:52:17,320
Speaker 7: percent true. My only reservation there is we haven't seen

2482
01:52:17,360 --> 01:52:20,880
Speaker 7: the team that lost to Michigan in I mean several

2483
01:52:20,960 --> 01:52:24,400
Speaker 7: weeks now months, even like that they and that lost

2484
01:52:24,439 --> 01:52:26,120
Speaker 7: to Michigan. I think I saw this somewhere else, Like

2485
01:52:26,200 --> 01:52:29,519
Speaker 7: in the losses to Oregon and Michigan, they had zero sacks.

2486
01:52:29,560 --> 01:52:32,840
Speaker 7: They've since in this playoff gotten home sixteen times like this.

2487
01:52:33,160 --> 01:52:35,519
Speaker 7: It's again hard to quantify, but it feels like they've

2488
01:52:35,560 --> 01:52:38,920
Speaker 7: kind of had that, like that that heartbreak story arc,

2489
01:52:38,960 --> 01:52:40,720
Speaker 7: if you will, Like we all know that guy that

2490
01:52:40,760 --> 01:52:42,479
Speaker 7: gets broken up with and then you see him a

2491
01:52:42,520 --> 01:52:44,840
Speaker 7: few weeks later, he's hitting the gym, he got a

2492
01:52:44,880 --> 01:52:47,560
Speaker 7: new job, he got verified on Instagram, Like he's just

2493
01:52:47,600 --> 01:52:51,559
Speaker 7: living a different lifestyle that new state since Michigan exactly. Man,

2494
01:52:51,680 --> 01:52:54,360
Speaker 7: So like I think that to me is is a

2495
01:52:54,479 --> 01:52:58,360
Speaker 7: little bit tough to unsee based on what Ohio State

2496
01:52:58,439 --> 01:52:59,960
Speaker 7: has been in this playoff. I'm sure we'll talk about

2497
01:53:00,120 --> 01:53:02,640
Speaker 7: Texas game, but like to preface that. I don't think

2498
01:53:02,640 --> 01:53:05,160
Speaker 7: they even played that great against Texas, to be honest,

2499
01:53:05,200 --> 01:53:07,400
Speaker 7: and still thought I get it done. So I say

2500
01:53:07,439 --> 01:53:08,320
Speaker 7: a lot of pieces there.

2501
01:53:08,640 --> 01:53:10,680
Speaker 2: Give me give me thirty week. We're up against it

2502
01:53:10,800 --> 01:53:12,880
Speaker 2: right now, but give me thirty seconds. On that Ohio

2503
01:53:13,000 --> 01:53:15,680
Speaker 2: State Texas game. I love when guys on the one

2504
01:53:15,760 --> 01:53:18,120
Speaker 2: yard line toss it back nine yards to try to

2505
01:53:18,160 --> 01:53:20,840
Speaker 2: get a touchdown. But just a general your take on

2506
01:53:21,040 --> 01:53:23,720
Speaker 2: start of Texas and how the whole thing played out

2507
01:53:23,760 --> 01:53:24,559
Speaker 2: with them in Ohio State.

2508
01:53:25,360 --> 01:53:27,680
Speaker 7: I'll go rapid fire the toss play. I don't have

2509
01:53:27,720 --> 01:53:30,880
Speaker 7: a problem with that because going back at it, Calvin

2510
01:53:30,960 --> 01:53:32,639
Speaker 7: Banks is going to be like a top fifteen, top

2511
01:53:32,720 --> 01:53:35,200
Speaker 7: ten pick. The tackle for Texas they had him. What

2512
01:53:35,280 --> 01:53:38,519
Speaker 7: a safety like. If Caleb Downs isn't a psychopathics film watcher,

2513
01:53:38,680 --> 01:53:40,200
Speaker 7: he doesn't find a way to make that play. I

2514
01:53:40,200 --> 01:53:43,640
Speaker 7: don't think anybody besides Caleb Downs makes that play. They

2515
01:53:43,680 --> 01:53:45,760
Speaker 7: were making it work all night. The leading receiver was

2516
01:53:45,960 --> 01:53:48,599
Speaker 7: a running back. I just I go back to Ohio State.

2517
01:53:48,840 --> 01:53:51,200
Speaker 7: Jeremiah Smith had three yards in this game in one

2518
01:53:51,280 --> 01:53:54,400
Speaker 7: catch and they still got it done. And you know

2519
01:53:54,400 --> 01:53:58,400
Speaker 7: I'm gonna say here, VJ, We'll leave football well, Howard.

2520
01:53:58,400 --> 01:54:00,840
Speaker 2: Oh, I got one more game, got one more game.

2521
01:54:01,200 --> 01:54:02,200
Speaker 2: I got one more game.

2522
01:54:03,200 --> 01:54:04,920
Speaker 3: I got one more game I already play. I want

2523
01:54:04,920 --> 01:54:06,160
Speaker 3: to let you do on this what I already put

2524
01:54:06,200 --> 01:54:08,479
Speaker 3: our tomorrow early in the show, I got one more

2525
01:54:08,520 --> 01:54:09,920
Speaker 3: time for it to come true, and it gives me

2526
01:54:10,000 --> 01:54:12,080
Speaker 3: to try factor. I said it against Oregon the first time,

2527
01:54:12,280 --> 01:54:14,960
Speaker 3: I said it against Michigan and in Columbus. If the

2528
01:54:15,120 --> 01:54:17,960
Speaker 3: game is in his hands on January twentieth, late in

2529
01:54:18,040 --> 01:54:21,960
Speaker 3: the game, Will Howard will throw the game away.

2530
01:54:22,400 --> 01:54:24,760
Speaker 2: Mark my words, Well, there you go.

2531
01:54:25,360 --> 01:54:26,799
Speaker 7: Impossible, it's very possible.

2532
01:54:26,880 --> 01:54:29,120
Speaker 2: Mark them down, j D. Mark them down. So I

2533
01:54:29,200 --> 01:54:31,519
Speaker 2: know we'll have you all next week. This time, we

2534
01:54:31,640 --> 01:54:33,720
Speaker 2: still want to have played the college championship game. But

2535
01:54:33,840 --> 01:54:37,440
Speaker 2: there's been such good games. There's so much news we've ignored,

2536
01:54:37,880 --> 01:54:41,360
Speaker 2: like will coach Prime still be there, will coach Belichick?

2537
01:54:41,400 --> 01:54:43,600
Speaker 2: Every coach a game. We'll get some of that coming

2538
01:54:43,680 --> 01:54:45,720
Speaker 2: up next week with you, JD. Because there's a ton

2539
01:54:45,800 --> 01:54:49,040
Speaker 2: of news in college transferportal, all of that. So don't

2540
01:54:49,040 --> 01:54:50,800
Speaker 2: think you're getting off the hook just because you got

2541
01:54:50,880 --> 01:54:52,200
Speaker 2: one game coming up.

2542
01:54:52,240 --> 01:54:55,400

Speaker 2: see this show posted night after we get off the air.

2557
01:55:31,280 --> 01:55:38,960
Speaker 2: Cheerier carpets. Period twenty eight to fourteen, the score, three

2558
01:55:39,040 --> 01:55:41,920
Speaker 2: minutes remaining in the game. The Baltimore Ravens look like

2559
01:55:42,040 --> 01:55:45,320
Speaker 2: they are going to advance here as there's a flag

2560
01:55:45,440 --> 01:55:47,120
Speaker 2: on the play coming up. I think that might be

2561
01:55:47,160 --> 01:55:48,800
Speaker 2: on a Pittsburgh defender for trying to punch out of

2562
01:55:48,840 --> 01:55:51,680
Speaker 2: Mark Andrews's ball. But you know what, let's go ahead

2563
01:55:51,720 --> 01:55:54,200
Speaker 2: and up holding on the Steelers. I tell you what.

2564
01:55:54,480 --> 01:55:57,800
Speaker 2: The Steeler's lack of defensive competing this game has been

2565
01:55:57,920 --> 01:56:00,560
Speaker 2: the story to me. I know that Pittsburgh's offense has

2566
01:56:00,640 --> 01:56:03,080
Speaker 2: been terrible. They have not been able to move the ball.

2567
01:56:03,480 --> 01:56:06,960
Speaker 2: But watching the Ravens just go five yards of carries,

2568
01:56:06,960 --> 01:56:09,240
Speaker 2: six yards of carry, five yards of carry, eight yards

2569
01:56:09,280 --> 01:56:11,840
Speaker 2: of carry has been one that to me is like,

2570
01:56:11,840 --> 01:56:14,280
Speaker 2: all right, y'all gotta really answer for this. This is

2571
01:56:14,680 --> 01:56:17,080
Speaker 2: offense ain't been great, but the defense has been terrible.

2572
01:56:17,240 --> 01:56:20,320
Speaker 3: No, the offense ain't been great. Defense been terrible. Off

2573
01:56:20,360 --> 01:56:21,200
Speaker 3: it's been terrible too.

2574
01:56:21,280 --> 01:56:21,440
Speaker 2: Man.

2575
01:56:21,480 --> 01:56:23,480
Speaker 3: They've scored on some well I like call it like

2576
01:56:23,560 --> 01:56:25,280
Speaker 3: you know, luck plays that happen every now and then.

2577
01:56:25,360 --> 01:56:28,080
Speaker 3: But they're done. They're not winning this game. Three ten less,

2578
01:56:28,160 --> 01:56:30,080
Speaker 3: first and ten all the way down to the thirty

2579
01:56:30,120 --> 01:56:31,720
Speaker 3: six and a half. You know, just pitch it to

2580
01:56:31,800 --> 01:56:33,520
Speaker 3: King Henry and let King Henry do this.

2581
01:56:34,960 --> 01:56:38,120
Speaker 2: So another nine yard, another nine yard run on first

2582
01:56:38,200 --> 01:56:40,800
Speaker 2: down with three minutes left the game. That goes to

2583
01:56:40,840 --> 01:56:44,640
Speaker 2: show you how this thing has been going. Just if

2584
01:56:44,680 --> 01:56:46,040
Speaker 2: your first time tuning in.

2585
01:56:46,600 --> 01:56:47,000
Speaker 4: We do this.

2586
01:56:47,200 --> 01:56:49,440
Speaker 2: We try to predict the future. We try to tell

2587
01:56:49,480 --> 01:56:52,160
Speaker 2: and I said, by this time last week, last week,

2588
01:56:52,200 --> 01:56:55,160
Speaker 2: the Houston Texans will have won their playoff game. Because

2589
01:56:55,200 --> 01:56:58,320
Speaker 2: I knew it was gonna be three thirty Eastern on Saturday,

2590
01:56:58,520 --> 01:57:01,080
Speaker 2: because that's the only time they have play. So let's

2591
01:57:01,080 --> 01:57:03,480
Speaker 2: go ahead load him up for this upcoming week. It's

2592
01:57:03,560 --> 01:57:07,120
Speaker 2: time for this time next week, VJ. You go first man,

2593
01:57:07,280 --> 01:57:10,560
Speaker 2: all right. By this time next week, losing Texas coach

2594
01:57:10,600 --> 01:57:15,560
Speaker 2: Steve Sarksian will be linked to the Dallas Cowboys job.

2595
01:57:15,640 --> 01:57:17,520
Speaker 2: He will not get the job, or take the job,

2596
01:57:17,640 --> 01:57:20,160
Speaker 2: or even interview for the job, but we will hear

2597
01:57:20,240 --> 01:57:24,760
Speaker 2: reports about how the Dallas Cowboys are interested in Steve

2598
01:57:24,920 --> 01:57:28,760
Speaker 2: Sarkeesian as an attempt to further negotiate with Mike McCarthy.

2599
01:57:29,040 --> 01:57:30,840
Speaker 3: By this time next week, the Miami Heat will have

2600
01:57:31,040 --> 01:57:32,120
Speaker 3: traded Jimmy Butler.

2601
01:57:32,280 --> 01:57:35,360
Speaker 2: Thank goodness. Can it has to get traded this week?

2602
01:57:35,720 --> 01:57:38,880
Speaker 2: Did you see the video of him? Oh god, he

2603
01:57:38,960 --> 01:57:41,400
Speaker 2: was like a restaurant of some sort, and he was

2604
01:57:41,440 --> 01:57:44,160
Speaker 2: like congratulating the employee on a job well done, filling

2605
01:57:44,200 --> 01:57:46,520
Speaker 2: up the drink, and he goes, that's how you empower

2606
01:57:46,600 --> 01:57:49,240
Speaker 2: your employees. It was very much a veiled shot.

2607
01:57:51,280 --> 01:57:53,520
Speaker 3: You don't it's it's stupid. It's I mature trader, speaking

2608
01:57:53,520 --> 01:57:53,960
Speaker 3: of trades.

2609
01:57:54,040 --> 01:57:56,440
Speaker 2: By this time next week, the losing coach of this

2610
01:57:56,560 --> 01:57:59,520
Speaker 2: game the Mike Tomlin of the Pittsburgh Steelers. There will

2611
01:57:59,560 --> 01:58:03,560
Speaker 2: be tall of NFL teams interested in trying to trade

2612
01:58:03,760 --> 01:58:06,920
Speaker 2: for Mike Tomlin. This might have run his course here

2613
01:58:06,960 --> 01:58:10,320
Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh because they're not Look, Pittsburgh does not seem

2614
01:58:10,360 --> 01:58:12,920
Speaker 2: to be happy with just a winning season. They have

2615
01:58:13,040 --> 01:58:16,280
Speaker 2: to win playoff games as well. There's about off the

2616
01:58:16,320 --> 01:58:18,840
Speaker 2: time I had seventeen teams in the NFL that would

2617
01:58:19,080 --> 01:58:21,560
Speaker 2: kill a man for sept for a winning season. Ian

2618
01:58:21,680 --> 01:58:23,360
Speaker 2: raised his hand as a fan of the New York Jets.

2619
01:58:23,520 --> 01:58:26,400
Speaker 2: I think, Mike Tomlin, we will hear about trades. I

2620
01:58:26,400 --> 01:58:27,920
Speaker 2: don't know, if you gets raight, we're gonna hear about it.

2621
01:58:28,320 --> 01:58:30,760
Speaker 3: By this time next week, the Detroit Pistons will be

2622
01:58:30,840 --> 01:58:33,000
Speaker 3: a fifth or higher seed in the East. There game

2623
01:58:33,040 --> 01:58:34,920
Speaker 3: and a half now game this week at the nic

2624
01:58:35,000 --> 01:58:37,720
Speaker 3: Obaca's home against the Pacers home against the Phoenix Suns.

2625
01:58:37,880 --> 01:58:40,480
Speaker 2: They currently sit at twenty and nineteen. One of my

2626
01:58:40,600 --> 01:58:42,800
Speaker 2: long term NBA predictions we had to go out on

2627
01:58:42,880 --> 01:58:45,560
Speaker 2: a limb to start the year at the other place.

2628
01:58:46,040 --> 01:58:49,880
Speaker 2: I had the Pistons in a non play in playoff team,

2629
01:58:50,000 --> 01:58:52,480
Speaker 2: so top six and Kate Cunningham as an All Star

2630
01:58:52,920 --> 01:58:55,240
Speaker 2: also had the Timberwolves finishing further than the Knicks in

2631
01:58:55,280 --> 01:58:57,240
Speaker 2: the playoffs. So that's what I'm gonna miss with a

2632
01:58:57,280 --> 01:59:01,480
Speaker 2: few coming this time next week. Ohio eight line, the

2633
01:59:01,600 --> 01:59:03,520
Speaker 2: line in that game Jad was talking about is a

2634
01:59:03,520 --> 01:59:07,720
Speaker 2: little disrespectful. That thing is going to shrink. All right,

2635
01:59:07,920 --> 01:59:10,040
Speaker 2: that's gonna shrink like something outside. With his coach is

2636
01:59:10,040 --> 01:59:13,600
Speaker 2: gonna get a lot smaller. It's nine now it closes

2637
01:59:13,800 --> 01:59:16,120
Speaker 2: under a touchdown. Uh yeah, I can see that.

2638
01:59:16,440 --> 01:59:19,000
Speaker 3: By the time next week, the only team with a

2639
01:59:19,120 --> 01:59:21,760
Speaker 3: new head coach that has a head coach in vacancy.

2640
01:59:21,520 --> 01:59:25,960
Speaker 2: Right now will be one new England Patriots. Bonus points,

2641
01:59:26,000 --> 01:59:29,920
Speaker 2: who is it, Mike Rabel. Interesting, It's interesting you say

2642
01:59:30,000 --> 01:59:35,000
Speaker 2: that because when so when Antonio appears and and Tom

2643
01:59:35,120 --> 01:59:37,960
Speaker 2: Tolesco was fired. Then two days later I said, you know,

2644
01:59:38,360 --> 01:59:41,120
Speaker 2: this only happens because one thing changes and he changes

2645
01:59:41,160 --> 01:59:44,760
Speaker 2: his ownership. I'm not saying that you're wrong, but I

2646
01:59:44,800 --> 01:59:49,040
Speaker 2: think people need to say Patriots or Raiders is very

2647
01:59:49,120 --> 01:59:50,000
Speaker 2: real possibility.

2648
01:59:50,240 --> 01:59:52,320
Speaker 3: Because Tom Brady's there, former teammate. I could get that,

2649
01:59:52,400 --> 01:59:54,520
Speaker 3: but I think I think he would want to be

2650
01:59:54,880 --> 01:59:55,400
Speaker 3: a Patriot.

2651
01:59:55,560 --> 01:59:59,600
Speaker 2: We'll see. It's good to Broughts out here, guys, Aaronsis

2652
01:59:59,600 --> 02:00:02,040
Speaker 2: and Jason frightening up next peace out

2653
02:00:05,600 --> 02:00:06,040
Speaker 7: M hmm
