But, 28 00:01:44,028 --> 00:01:47,548 Speaker 1: as we mentioned, one AFC, one NFC game per day 29 00:01:47,668 --> 00:01:51,388 Speaker 1: Saturday Sunday. Daniel Jones, quarterback in the Giants, getting a 30 00:01:51,468 --> 00:01:55,708 Speaker 1: boost of confidence after defeating the Vikings thirty one twenty four, 31 00:01:55,788 --> 00:01:58,268 Speaker 1: frankly as a closer score than it seemed on Super 32 00:01:58,268 --> 00:02:01,068 Speaker 1: Wildcard weekend. Jones two for three hundred and one yards 33 00:02:01,068 --> 00:02:04,748 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. He added another seventy eight yards with this legs, 34 00:02:04,988 --> 00:02:08,588 Speaker 1: not to mention two rushing tds from Siquon Barkley. So 35 00:02:08,628 --> 00:02:11,788 Speaker 1: how does head coach Brian Dable see this confidence within 36 00:02:11,868 --> 00:02:15,588 Speaker 1: this team? I just see, you know, a humble, hard 37 00:02:15,588 --> 00:02:17,868 Speaker 1: working group that tries to get ready to play you know, 38 00:02:17,948 --> 00:02:19,628 Speaker 1: each week to do the things that we need to 39 00:02:19,668 --> 00:02:21,988 Speaker 1: try to do. Each team at this time of year 40 00:02:22,108 --> 00:02:24,508 Speaker 1: is really really good, and I think they do a 41 00:02:24,508 --> 00:02:26,788 Speaker 1: good job of maintaining their focus on the keeping the 42 00:02:26,828 --> 00:02:29,148 Speaker 1: main things, the main thing, which is our preparation here 43 00:02:29,148 --> 00:02:31,148 Speaker 1: in the next few days, and then ultimately how we play. 44 00:02:31,268 --> 00:02:33,668 Speaker 1: If it's hostile and other places you've been this year, 45 00:02:33,708 --> 00:02:36,428 Speaker 1: how would you describe the atmosphere in Philly year inspecting 46 00:02:36,508 --> 00:02:40,668 Speaker 1: on Saturday night? Yeah, hostile. I don't have good adjectives 47 00:02:40,708 --> 00:02:45,588 Speaker 1: for that one other Okay, the atmosphere in Philadelphia will 48 00:02:45,588 --> 00:02:48,228 Speaker 1: be off the charts when the Giants go to town 49 00:02:48,348 --> 00:02:51,308 Speaker 1: in Philadelphia looking to knock off the top seeded Eagles. 50 00:02:51,308 --> 00:02:53,308 Speaker 1: We haven't seen them for two weeks, but we certainly 51 00:02:53,348 --> 00:02:55,788 Speaker 1: saw the Giants last weekend, coming off a huge road 52 00:02:55,828 --> 00:02:59,228 Speaker 1: win in Minnesota. Kind of a new humble swagger to 53 00:02:59,348 --> 00:03:02,428 Speaker 1: this team. I don't know that's oxymoron, but we'll fly 54 00:03:02,508 --> 00:03:04,668 Speaker 1: with it because it feel like the Giants have all 55 00:03:04,708 --> 00:03:08,708 Speaker 1: the momentum coming into this matchup. Sean, Yeah, it does, 56 00:03:08,788 --> 00:03:11,308 Speaker 1: and you say humble swag. I saw something for the 57 00:03:11,388 --> 00:03:14,028 Speaker 1: very first time that I've never seen before. I saw 58 00:03:14,108 --> 00:03:17,628 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones celebrate. I saw him flex in a world 59 00:03:17,748 --> 00:03:20,028 Speaker 1: right now where Kirk Cousins was wearing chains and Mike 60 00:03:20,108 --> 00:03:24,988 Speaker 1: McCarthy's wearing chains, everybody's wearing drip and all this jewelry. 61 00:03:25,548 --> 00:03:27,868 Speaker 1: No Daniel Jones flex for the first time. When Saguon 62 00:03:27,908 --> 00:03:30,668 Speaker 1: Barkley plunges in for that year touchdown, they showed that 63 00:03:30,788 --> 00:03:33,108 Speaker 1: energy and I have not seen that. But the reason 64 00:03:33,148 --> 00:03:35,468 Speaker 1: why they have this momentum right now, Jamie, is it's 65 00:03:35,588 --> 00:03:38,708 Speaker 1: not just the fact that they're winning, it's how they're winning. 66 00:03:39,028 --> 00:03:41,788 Speaker 1: They're winning right now because of their offense, not in 67 00:03:41,828 --> 00:03:43,388 Speaker 1: spite of it. And I feel like all season long 68 00:03:43,428 --> 00:03:45,308 Speaker 1: it was like, boy, if the defense can hold the 69 00:03:45,308 --> 00:03:47,028 Speaker 1: teams under twenty points, they got a shot. But if 70 00:03:47,028 --> 00:03:50,148 Speaker 1: the defense, if the offense can't score more than twenty points, 71 00:03:50,228 --> 00:03:52,148 Speaker 1: then it's gonna be a long day. And that's not 72 00:03:52,188 --> 00:03:54,028 Speaker 1: the case. Look, they put up thirty eight points against 73 00:03:54,028 --> 00:03:57,228 Speaker 1: the Colts, thirty one points against the Vikings, and to me, 74 00:03:57,308 --> 00:04:00,188 Speaker 1: the biggest thing is the Giants started fast. They went 75 00:04:00,308 --> 00:04:02,868 Speaker 1: in Minnesota, first playoff game for so many guys. Daniel 76 00:04:02,908 --> 00:04:06,028 Speaker 1: Jones Saguon Barkley as a head coach the first time 77 00:04:06,028 --> 00:04:08,348 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. He's had all kinds of Super Bowl experience, 78 00:04:08,388 --> 00:04:10,828 Speaker 1: in National champions experience. But this is how they started 79 00:04:10,988 --> 00:04:13,468 Speaker 1: the game right here, And this is every single drive. 80 00:04:13,668 --> 00:04:17,588 Speaker 1: Opening drive, five play, seventy five yards, touchdown, second possession touchdown, 81 00:04:17,748 --> 00:04:20,828 Speaker 1: third possession field goal, seventeen points in the first three possessions, 82 00:04:21,188 --> 00:04:23,748 Speaker 1: and then every look at every drive, I mean everyone 83 00:04:23,868 --> 00:04:27,068 Speaker 1: was seventy five yards or more this offense. When you 84 00:04:27,108 --> 00:04:29,948 Speaker 1: look at them this whole season, Jay Mac, you know, 85 00:04:29,948 --> 00:04:32,028 Speaker 1: the opening drive is always like the opening statement, right 86 00:04:32,428 --> 00:04:34,428 Speaker 1: and I think you look at the Giants, they had 87 00:04:34,468 --> 00:04:37,548 Speaker 1: not scored an opening drive touchdown in nine games. So 88 00:04:37,868 --> 00:04:39,788 Speaker 1: to see them just jumping out of the gates right there, 89 00:04:39,868 --> 00:04:42,388 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones was on point accurate. Sometimes you don't know 90 00:04:42,428 --> 00:04:44,268 Speaker 1: how quarterbacks gonna start a game. Last time he was 91 00:04:44,268 --> 00:04:46,828 Speaker 1: in Minnesota on Christmas Eve. The first two deep balls 92 00:04:46,828 --> 00:04:48,348 Speaker 1: that he threw, he airmailed them. They were he was 93 00:04:48,388 --> 00:04:50,468 Speaker 1: two jacked up, two juiced up. In the playoff game, 94 00:04:50,508 --> 00:04:52,428 Speaker 1: he was honed in. He was like an assassin out there, 95 00:04:52,468 --> 00:04:54,108 Speaker 1: and I think that's why the Giants had a lot 96 00:04:54,108 --> 00:04:56,228 Speaker 1: of momentum right now going to this game. Yeah, and look, 97 00:04:56,228 --> 00:04:58,308 Speaker 1: this is an all time robbery, and the Eagles are 98 00:04:58,308 --> 00:05:00,468 Speaker 1: the one seed for a reason. The Eagles have home 99 00:05:00,508 --> 00:05:02,188 Speaker 1: field for a reason, and they got to buy for 100 00:05:02,228 --> 00:05:04,748 Speaker 1: a reason. You're asking who's got the momentum, trying to 101 00:05:04,788 --> 00:05:07,548 Speaker 1: go through the recent performances from the Eagles, and of 102 00:05:07,548 --> 00:05:09,508 Speaker 1: course Jalen Hurts was down for a couple of games. 103 00:05:09,668 --> 00:05:11,428 Speaker 1: You know, not everyone was playing their starters in Week 104 00:05:11,428 --> 00:05:14,228 Speaker 1: eighteen when they played. It's been thirty eight days since 105 00:05:14,228 --> 00:05:16,988 Speaker 1: the Eagles have shown us the version of the Eagles 106 00:05:17,028 --> 00:05:19,548 Speaker 1: that had us in rapture the entire season. I go 107 00:05:19,628 --> 00:05:21,708 Speaker 1: back to that last time that the Giants played the 108 00:05:21,748 --> 00:05:25,428 Speaker 1: Eagles in a game that mattered was December eleventh. This season, 109 00:05:25,468 --> 00:05:27,228 Speaker 1: it was all the way Week fourteen, and you know, 110 00:05:27,308 --> 00:05:30,788 Speaker 1: the Eagles just absolutely blew out the Giants. But that 111 00:05:30,908 --> 00:05:34,788 Speaker 1: was Week fourteen. This right now is Week twenty. So 112 00:05:34,828 --> 00:05:37,268 Speaker 1: you're telling me thirty eight days ago was the last 113 00:05:37,268 --> 00:05:40,668 Speaker 1: time the Eagles look good and you could say, we'll relax, Schrager, 114 00:05:40,708 --> 00:05:43,068 Speaker 1: it was with minshoe or get out of here. That 115 00:05:43,108 --> 00:05:45,148 Speaker 1: you can't penalize them for not having a You also 116 00:05:45,228 --> 00:05:47,948 Speaker 1: can't penalize us for saying the Giants kind of feel 117 00:05:47,988 --> 00:05:50,668 Speaker 1: like they've got something going right now, when for the Eagles, 118 00:05:50,668 --> 00:05:52,788 Speaker 1: it's like, all right, let's crank the machine back up 119 00:05:52,828 --> 00:05:55,548 Speaker 1: to what we were like then. Remember they blew out Tennessee. 120 00:05:55,588 --> 00:05:57,828 Speaker 1: AJ Brown had that huge day and the Titans general 121 00:05:57,828 --> 00:06:00,388 Speaker 1: manager gets fired that week. They come into New York 122 00:06:00,428 --> 00:06:02,508 Speaker 1: and everyone's high on the Giants and they blow out 123 00:06:02,548 --> 00:06:04,868 Speaker 1: the Giants and then it kind of hit a all. 124 00:06:05,028 --> 00:06:08,068 Speaker 1: And it's been thirty eight days since we saw that 125 00:06:08,188 --> 00:06:09,908 Speaker 1: version of the Eagles. So do I think the Eagles 126 00:06:09,908 --> 00:06:12,028 Speaker 1: should be favored by a touchdown? Of course, that's what 127 00:06:12,068 --> 00:06:14,228 Speaker 1: the Eagles did over the course of you know, five months. 128 00:06:14,268 --> 00:06:16,548 Speaker 1: They deserve that. Do I think the Giants have the 129 00:06:16,548 --> 00:06:18,588 Speaker 1: momentum right now? Yes, I do. I haven't seen that 130 00:06:18,668 --> 00:06:20,868 Speaker 1: version of the Eagles in nearly forty days. It's for 131 00:06:21,028 --> 00:06:23,068 Speaker 1: forty days and forty nights, and I'm waiting to get 132 00:06:23,068 --> 00:06:25,068 Speaker 1: excited about the Eagles again. And you can't blame me. 133 00:06:25,108 --> 00:06:26,788 Speaker 1: They haven't put it on paper, they haven't put it 134 00:06:26,788 --> 00:06:29,708 Speaker 1: on film. The Giants have. That's fair biblical Peter. Yeah, 135 00:06:29,708 --> 00:06:31,868 Speaker 1: it's a great movie too. Oh, it is no doubt 136 00:06:31,868 --> 00:06:34,188 Speaker 1: about it. I love the way the Giants have been playing. 137 00:06:34,188 --> 00:06:35,588 Speaker 1: You look at that in the Wall card game. Like 138 00:06:35,628 --> 00:06:37,548 Speaker 1: you guys just said to going out the way they 139 00:06:37,588 --> 00:06:40,628 Speaker 1: started the game, that is the definition of momentum to 140 00:06:40,708 --> 00:06:44,068 Speaker 1: start that way. But all the momentum, like you just 141 00:06:44,068 --> 00:06:46,548 Speaker 1: brought up the game and where these guys played, and 142 00:06:46,588 --> 00:06:48,988 Speaker 1: there was so much build up around that game. You 143 00:06:49,068 --> 00:06:51,708 Speaker 1: were on the sideline that game. Didn't go to la 144 00:06:51,828 --> 00:06:54,308 Speaker 1: to be on the sideline for that game, and they 145 00:06:54,348 --> 00:06:56,548 Speaker 1: got their Giants got their butts kick. And then we 146 00:06:56,628 --> 00:06:58,348 Speaker 1: go to the last game of the season as well, 147 00:06:58,348 --> 00:07:00,908 Speaker 1: and I know the Giants played their backups, and the 148 00:07:00,988 --> 00:07:03,388 Speaker 1: storyline coming out of that game was even when the 149 00:07:03,428 --> 00:07:05,588 Speaker 1: Giants backups, they were able to keep this game close 150 00:07:05,748 --> 00:07:08,468 Speaker 1: with the Philadelphia Eagles. And when you look back at it, 151 00:07:08,548 --> 00:07:10,988 Speaker 1: Philly was up nineteen to zero in this game in 152 00:07:11,028 --> 00:07:13,148 Speaker 1: the second half. So yes, the Giants made a come 153 00:07:13,188 --> 00:07:15,388 Speaker 1: back with Davis Webb and they turn it into a 154 00:07:15,428 --> 00:07:18,188 Speaker 1: good game. We talk about all the momentum. They rushed 155 00:07:18,188 --> 00:07:21,308 Speaker 1: for two hundred and fifty three yards in that first game, 156 00:07:21,548 --> 00:07:25,228 Speaker 1: just a dominant performance. The Giants haven't beat Philly in 157 00:07:25,388 --> 00:07:29,588 Speaker 1: Philly nine straight games. It's back to like twenty fourteen, 158 00:07:29,588 --> 00:07:32,148 Speaker 1: the last time they won in Philly. So when you 159 00:07:32,228 --> 00:07:35,668 Speaker 1: talk about momentum, playoff game and how they've been playing. Yes, 160 00:07:35,908 --> 00:07:37,948 Speaker 1: love the way the Giants, the buzz that's going on 161 00:07:38,268 --> 00:07:40,428 Speaker 1: in the try say the area, all that is great. 162 00:07:40,468 --> 00:07:43,228 Speaker 1: It's tremendous. Everybody's rooting for them. They're a team that 163 00:07:43,268 --> 00:07:45,828 Speaker 1: you want to root for. But all the momentum, I 164 00:07:45,868 --> 00:07:48,708 Speaker 1: still think Philly has their own momentum. A bye week 165 00:07:48,708 --> 00:07:51,348 Speaker 1: a time to refresh, kind of get some good practices 166 00:07:51,348 --> 00:07:53,588 Speaker 1: in Jalen Hurts will be healthy, we'll be running the 167 00:07:53,628 --> 00:07:56,068 Speaker 1: ball more. So I'm not all in on the whole 168 00:07:56,108 --> 00:07:58,628 Speaker 1: momentum thing with the Giants. I love them, it's fun 169 00:07:58,668 --> 00:08:01,828 Speaker 1: watching them, but let's let's take a breath. Momentum is 170 00:08:01,828 --> 00:08:04,228 Speaker 1: a very tricky word because it does imply to Peter 171 00:08:04,508 --> 00:08:06,708 Speaker 1: point that, like, you think that team has the edge, 172 00:08:06,708 --> 00:08:08,468 Speaker 1: And then I think there's a difference between edge and 173 00:08:08,508 --> 00:08:11,188 Speaker 1: momentum because edge implies like the talent and the skill. 174 00:08:11,228 --> 00:08:12,988 Speaker 1: And when I think about this Giants team though, coming 175 00:08:12,988 --> 00:08:15,948 Speaker 1: into this weekend, the one name pops into my head, 176 00:08:16,148 --> 00:08:18,348 Speaker 1: the why this team is in this position, and it 177 00:08:18,388 --> 00:08:20,628 Speaker 1: makes me think, why I like this person. I really 178 00:08:20,668 --> 00:08:24,468 Speaker 1: like authenticity. I like someone showing me consistently they are 179 00:08:24,508 --> 00:08:27,348 Speaker 1: the same human Jason style head to toe. Literally, his 180 00:08:27,388 --> 00:08:30,028 Speaker 1: shoes always matches jacket. Peter never likes to zip the 181 00:08:30,028 --> 00:08:32,388 Speaker 1: sweatshirt all the way. He always leaves it open. Movie 182 00:08:32,428 --> 00:08:36,428 Speaker 1: quotes for Sean. It's amazing Brian Dable Week one goes 183 00:08:36,468 --> 00:08:38,588 Speaker 1: for two to beat the Titans. The guys had guts 184 00:08:38,628 --> 00:08:41,268 Speaker 1: from day one. He's been showing us who he has 185 00:08:41,308 --> 00:08:44,508 Speaker 1: been this entire time. This isn't like a desperate Brian Dable. 186 00:08:44,668 --> 00:08:46,908 Speaker 1: Oh shoot, I'm the coach of the New York Giants. 187 00:08:46,988 --> 00:08:49,668 Speaker 1: I gotta start having some guts to get Nope, we've 188 00:08:49,668 --> 00:08:52,308 Speaker 1: seen it. We've seen it. Since September eleventh. He has 189 00:08:52,348 --> 00:08:57,148 Speaker 1: been celebrating wholeheartedly, fopping around the field, hugging on Joe 190 00:08:57,188 --> 00:08:59,948 Speaker 1: Shane with the cigar in his mouth, going up to 191 00:09:00,028 --> 00:09:02,868 Speaker 1: fans on the road, fist pumping like is like, oh 192 00:09:02,908 --> 00:09:05,228 Speaker 1: must knocks him over when he goes fist pump. It's 193 00:09:05,228 --> 00:09:09,348 Speaker 1: a wholehearted, full effort. I have the guts and I 194 00:09:09,868 --> 00:09:12,388 Speaker 1: believe in my team, and I put my team in 195 00:09:12,428 --> 00:09:15,388 Speaker 1: position to win. Coach that I think has been showing 196 00:09:15,508 --> 00:09:18,188 Speaker 1: us who he is since he was hired. And now 197 00:09:18,228 --> 00:09:20,468 Speaker 1: we're just starting to get on the bandwagon. No, we've 198 00:09:20,628 --> 00:09:22,668 Speaker 1: I think you have to buy into this from back 199 00:09:22,708 --> 00:09:25,188 Speaker 1: in September when we were like, dang, they went to 200 00:09:25,268 --> 00:09:27,228 Speaker 1: Tennessee and went for two and that's how they won 201 00:09:27,308 --> 00:09:30,628 Speaker 1: that game. It's awesome. He showed it too. Fourth and one, Yes, 202 00:09:30,708 --> 00:09:32,588 Speaker 1: the biggest moment of the game. It's like, this is 203 00:09:32,588 --> 00:09:34,188 Speaker 1: who we are, so who we've been all season. Kevin, 204 00:09:34,188 --> 00:09:36,028 Speaker 1: Burkhart and Olson were great on the call because they 205 00:09:36,028 --> 00:09:37,628 Speaker 1: were like, if you go back to week one and 206 00:09:37,708 --> 00:09:39,108 Speaker 1: you saw what they did, then they're not going to 207 00:09:39,148 --> 00:09:42,548 Speaker 1: stop now. Before we wrapped this segment, though, eight thirty 208 00:09:42,588 --> 00:09:45,828 Speaker 1: PM game on a Saturday night with no school the 209 00:09:45,868 --> 00:09:48,468 Speaker 1: next morning, no work the next morning, what is that? 210 00:09:48,508 --> 00:09:52,468 Speaker 1: Philadelphia seems gonna be? Like, I am scared to even 211 00:09:52,548 --> 00:09:54,708 Speaker 1: think about what that parking lot is like around two 212 00:09:54,788 --> 00:09:57,628 Speaker 1: or three o'clock we're talking in eight thirty kickoff Sean 213 00:09:57,868 --> 00:09:59,908 Speaker 1: as someone who wore the big Blue, does that feel 214 00:09:59,908 --> 00:10:02,028 Speaker 1: like a safe space for any Giants fan to be at? 215 00:10:02,228 --> 00:10:05,868 Speaker 1: Absolutely not. They called the Link, but I feel like 216 00:10:05,868 --> 00:10:07,428 Speaker 1: if you're a Giants fans, you might end up in 217 00:10:07,468 --> 00:10:10,428 Speaker 1: the clink. You're going there a one o'clock game in Philly. 218 00:10:11,068 --> 00:10:13,348 Speaker 1: Listen it's passionate. A four o'clock game. Man, Hey, they're 219 00:10:13,348 --> 00:10:16,148 Speaker 1: getting a little bit kind of fired up eight o'clock. 220 00:10:16,188 --> 00:10:19,188 Speaker 1: They are ruthless. Listen, the game itself is kind of 221 00:10:19,228 --> 00:10:21,068 Speaker 1: brings on a whole nother intensity. I used to get 222 00:10:21,068 --> 00:10:24,588 Speaker 1: a FedEx envelope fine every Wednesday after we played the Eagles. Somehow, 223 00:10:24,628 --> 00:10:26,508 Speaker 1: some way I was getting fine because it was just 224 00:10:26,628 --> 00:10:29,868 Speaker 1: it was violent and that Saturday night game. Man, look out, 225 00:10:29,908 --> 00:10:32,908 Speaker 1: I mean there's gonna be double birds everywhere. I will 226 00:10:32,948 --> 00:10:35,788 Speaker 1: be watching him from a safe distance. Okay, fly, birds fly, 227 00:10:36,228 --> 00:10:38,348 Speaker 1: We're gonna be doing all right time now, verena fill 228 00:10:38,348 --> 00:10:41,708 Speaker 1: Network insider, ian rap rap sheet. Let's stick on the Giants. 229 00:10:41,948 --> 00:10:45,108 Speaker 1: They're taking any momentum they have. They're heading down ninety 230 00:10:45,108 --> 00:10:48,068 Speaker 1: five to face Jalen Hurts. What's the latest with the 231 00:10:48,068 --> 00:10:50,948 Speaker 1: Eagles quarterback and his throwing shoulder. You guys were talking 232 00:10:50,948 --> 00:10:53,588 Speaker 1: about the last time the Eagles were really the dominant 233 00:10:53,588 --> 00:10:56,068 Speaker 1: Eagles that we saw for most of the regular season, 234 00:10:56,068 --> 00:10:59,428 Speaker 1: and obviously that coincided with the injury to Jalen Hurts. 235 00:10:59,468 --> 00:11:01,668 Speaker 1: It has been a month or so since he's been 236 00:11:01,668 --> 00:11:05,148 Speaker 1: dealing with that sprained st joints severely limited, knocked him 237 00:11:05,148 --> 00:11:07,308 Speaker 1: out a couple of games, and we saw him week eighteen, 238 00:11:07,708 --> 00:11:10,908 Speaker 1: wasn't quite himself. Got the job done, but wasn't quite himself. 239 00:11:11,108 --> 00:11:13,868 Speaker 1: So a very very good song for the Philadelphia Eagles 240 00:11:13,908 --> 00:11:16,308 Speaker 1: and their fans that when the Eagles released their injury 241 00:11:16,348 --> 00:11:21,428 Speaker 1: report yesterday, Jalen Hurts was not on it, no injury designation. 242 00:11:21,668 --> 00:11:24,028 Speaker 1: He was a full participant in practice. The only way 243 00:11:24,028 --> 00:11:26,428 Speaker 1: you can do this is a player is fully healed 244 00:11:26,468 --> 00:11:29,988 Speaker 1: from his injury. That is the expectation for Jalen Hurts 245 00:11:29,988 --> 00:11:32,828 Speaker 1: that he is going to be himself when he plays 246 00:11:32,988 --> 00:11:36,428 Speaker 1: the Giants this weekend. Meanwhile, in the coaching world, maybe 247 00:11:36,428 --> 00:11:39,028 Speaker 1: the biggest thing, the biggest story we are chasing and 248 00:11:39,068 --> 00:11:41,188 Speaker 1: tracking right now is what's going to happen to Sean 249 00:11:41,308 --> 00:11:44,508 Speaker 1: Payton interviewed earlier in the week with the Houston Texans 250 00:11:44,508 --> 00:11:46,948 Speaker 1: for their head coaching job, and then last night in 251 00:11:47,028 --> 00:11:50,508 Speaker 1: Los Angeles, the Denver Broncos met with two people, one 252 00:11:50,668 --> 00:11:53,628 Speaker 1: Raheem Morris from the Los Angeles Rams and two Sean 253 00:11:53,708 --> 00:11:56,588 Speaker 1: Payton and Peyton. Not done yet still got the Carolina 254 00:11:56,668 --> 00:11:59,428 Speaker 1: Panthers later in the week, but this seems to be 255 00:11:59,508 --> 00:12:02,188 Speaker 1: as of now where it all stands all three teams 256 00:12:02,188 --> 00:12:05,308 Speaker 1: willing to meet the price of the New Orleans Saints 257 00:12:05,348 --> 00:12:08,868 Speaker 1: compensation wise to get Sean Payton. That is a big 258 00:12:08,908 --> 00:12:12,148 Speaker 1: obstacle that will be cleared at some point if this progresses. 259 00:12:12,428 --> 00:12:15,828 Speaker 1: And there's the biggest questions Sean Payton willing to take 260 00:12:15,868 --> 00:12:18,428 Speaker 1: a job right now or does he want to wait? 261 00:12:18,708 --> 00:12:20,788 Speaker 1: Obviously we will be tracking the next couple of days. 262 00:12:21,548 --> 00:12:23,308 Speaker 1: Here's one of the best wide receivers in all of 263 00:12:23,348 --> 00:12:25,828 Speaker 1: football last week, He's been one of the best wide 264 00:12:25,868 --> 00:12:28,348 Speaker 1: receivers over the past month, and he has just been 265 00:12:28,388 --> 00:12:30,948 Speaker 1: a huge part of the Giant success. He'll also be 266 00:12:30,948 --> 00:12:33,628 Speaker 1: playing the Divisional round this Saturday night in Philly. We 267 00:12:33,668 --> 00:12:35,788 Speaker 1: love his story, it's an incredible one. Let's give a 268 00:12:35,828 --> 00:12:42,188 Speaker 1: welcome to Giants wide receiver Isaiah Hodgenbria. Thank you guys 269 00:12:42,188 --> 00:12:44,228 Speaker 1: for having me. Your story is one to rally around, 270 00:12:44,228 --> 00:12:46,708 Speaker 1: and you have really emerged in the last month and 271 00:12:46,708 --> 00:12:49,348 Speaker 1: a half since getting with New York. Let's start though 272 00:12:49,388 --> 00:12:53,148 Speaker 1: with Sunday after the win. We saw your Instagram story. 273 00:12:53,388 --> 00:12:56,148 Speaker 1: You in the locker room leading the guys everyone dancing. 274 00:12:56,228 --> 00:12:59,108 Speaker 1: Take us into that scene. It was a raucous one. 275 00:12:59,428 --> 00:13:02,308 Speaker 1: What was the song that was playing Who's the HiPE guy? 276 00:13:02,428 --> 00:13:05,228 Speaker 1: Take us all through it? You know, it was the 277 00:13:05,268 --> 00:13:07,348 Speaker 1: same song that we played, you know, after we beat 278 00:13:07,388 --> 00:13:10,228 Speaker 1: the Washington Commanders. You know Stoning Shepherd, you know he's 279 00:13:10,308 --> 00:13:12,388 Speaker 1: kind of our hot guy and you know he's kind 280 00:13:12,388 --> 00:13:14,508 Speaker 1: of got that rep this year, you know, being just 281 00:13:14,588 --> 00:13:16,628 Speaker 1: a great supporter that he's been. So he was on 282 00:13:16,668 --> 00:13:19,348 Speaker 1: the music and just a little um, you know, walking 283 00:13:19,388 --> 00:13:21,028 Speaker 1: your chap, take over your chap, you know, kind of 284 00:13:21,068 --> 00:13:23,388 Speaker 1: just saying like, you know, like we came to you know, 285 00:13:23,428 --> 00:13:26,388 Speaker 1: the opponent's stadium and kind of handled our business. You know, 286 00:13:26,428 --> 00:13:28,548 Speaker 1: we took over and we left, and you know Stone 287 00:13:28,708 --> 00:13:30,508 Speaker 1: was saying an all game that, hey we win, we're 288 00:13:30,508 --> 00:13:32,788 Speaker 1: playing this game. We're playing the song after. So you know, 289 00:13:32,828 --> 00:13:34,588 Speaker 1: it was just a funny moment and fun to just 290 00:13:34,668 --> 00:13:36,508 Speaker 1: be a part of with all those guys. Yeah a zah. 291 00:13:36,628 --> 00:13:38,628 Speaker 1: You guys played lights out. There was a lot of 292 00:13:38,788 --> 00:13:40,828 Speaker 1: big plays in that game, and you guys came out 293 00:13:40,828 --> 00:13:43,428 Speaker 1: swinging on the opening drive, scored a big touchdown. We 294 00:13:43,428 --> 00:13:45,988 Speaker 1: showed a couple of the highlights as we introduced you 295 00:13:46,348 --> 00:13:48,788 Speaker 1: and that catch on the sideline. There was a guy 296 00:13:48,788 --> 00:13:50,188 Speaker 1: that used to sit over here in this chair that 297 00:13:50,188 --> 00:13:52,548 Speaker 1: would have that as part of his toad drag swag. 298 00:13:52,708 --> 00:13:55,548 Speaker 1: And I think people need to realize that was against 299 00:13:55,548 --> 00:13:58,548 Speaker 1: Patrick Peterson. You were going out at all game long. 300 00:13:58,668 --> 00:14:01,268 Speaker 1: But there's a play that I really want to bring up, 301 00:14:01,308 --> 00:14:03,588 Speaker 1: and I want to bring to everybody's attention because I 302 00:14:03,628 --> 00:14:05,428 Speaker 1: don't think you got into credit for what you did. 303 00:14:05,508 --> 00:14:07,828 Speaker 1: This is a twenty eight ard touchdown by sa Quon Barkley. 304 00:14:07,948 --> 00:14:12,068 Speaker 1: That's Isaiah Hodgen's right there blocking a defensive end. Look, 305 00:14:12,188 --> 00:14:14,948 Speaker 1: if you don't get that block, sae Quan doesn't score 306 00:14:14,988 --> 00:14:17,268 Speaker 1: this touchdown right here? Take us through this play and 307 00:14:17,788 --> 00:14:19,508 Speaker 1: are you okay with this? Like do you like blocking 308 00:14:19,588 --> 00:14:23,308 Speaker 1: defensive ends? Yeah? You know, it's just one of those 309 00:14:23,308 --> 00:14:24,908 Speaker 1: things that I kind of came into the league knowing 310 00:14:24,908 --> 00:14:26,228 Speaker 1: that I was going to have to do a little bit. 311 00:14:26,268 --> 00:14:28,468 Speaker 1: And you know, my father, you know, used to play 312 00:14:28,468 --> 00:14:30,908 Speaker 1: full back in the NFL, so with his blocking background, 313 00:14:30,908 --> 00:14:32,428 Speaker 1: he used to always tell me, like, man, like, there's 314 00:14:32,428 --> 00:14:34,908 Speaker 1: nothing more that coaches love than wide receivers. You know 315 00:14:34,948 --> 00:14:37,228 Speaker 1: how to block. So you know, you're a big body, dude, 316 00:14:37,268 --> 00:14:38,708 Speaker 1: Like make sure you know you do that on any 317 00:14:38,708 --> 00:14:41,508 Speaker 1: team that you're on. And you know, I got a 318 00:14:41,508 --> 00:14:43,068 Speaker 1: lot of good examples from in the past, you know, 319 00:14:43,148 --> 00:14:45,108 Speaker 1: being teammates with Gay Davis and stuff like that, of 320 00:14:45,228 --> 00:14:47,828 Speaker 1: just you know, those crack tosses and stuff, and you know, 321 00:14:47,908 --> 00:14:50,268 Speaker 1: I mean sometimes you don't always have the best leverage 322 00:14:50,268 --> 00:14:51,988 Speaker 1: on those d ns and you just got to hang 323 00:14:52,028 --> 00:14:54,268 Speaker 1: on for you know, dear life. And that was one 324 00:14:54,268 --> 00:14:56,428 Speaker 1: of those times where I had my leverage and I 325 00:14:56,468 --> 00:14:58,188 Speaker 1: just felt like, you know, take the d N where 326 00:14:58,188 --> 00:15:00,108 Speaker 1: he wants to go and just wash them out. And 327 00:15:00,188 --> 00:15:01,828 Speaker 1: you know, there's let me tell you, there's no better 328 00:15:01,828 --> 00:15:04,628 Speaker 1: feeling than just feeling say, Quon just run right pass 329 00:15:04,668 --> 00:15:06,308 Speaker 1: here and seeing all that green grass and him going 330 00:15:06,308 --> 00:15:08,148 Speaker 1: for a touchdown. Man. I mean I was probably more 331 00:15:08,188 --> 00:15:10,268 Speaker 1: hyped up on that play than I was after my touchdown, 332 00:15:10,348 --> 00:15:12,308 Speaker 1: Like in all honesty, like I went to the sideline 333 00:15:12,348 --> 00:15:14,508 Speaker 1: and was hyped up with my coaches. You know, we 334 00:15:14,508 --> 00:15:16,428 Speaker 1: were throwing helmets and stuff like. It was just a 335 00:15:16,428 --> 00:15:19,788 Speaker 1: fun moment. Well, Isaiah, I think Dan didn't want to 336 00:15:19,788 --> 00:15:22,988 Speaker 1: go there. You made him go there. An appreciation for blocking, 337 00:15:23,068 --> 00:15:25,108 Speaker 1: I think it's a beautiful thing, and I know your quarterback, 338 00:15:25,148 --> 00:15:28,108 Speaker 1: I'm sure appreciates it. Let's talk about your quarterback, Daniel 339 00:15:28,188 --> 00:15:30,388 Speaker 1: Jones had maybe the best game of his entire career 340 00:15:30,428 --> 00:15:32,748 Speaker 1: on Sunday. It wasn't just the numbers the performance, it 341 00:15:32,748 --> 00:15:35,388 Speaker 1: was how he looked. It was his whole mood and 342 00:15:35,468 --> 00:15:37,628 Speaker 1: attitude and vibe. What was he like in the huddle 343 00:15:37,708 --> 00:15:40,948 Speaker 1: this weekend? Why did it look different to us watching 344 00:15:40,988 --> 00:15:43,068 Speaker 1: the game compared to what you guys were feeling with 345 00:15:43,148 --> 00:15:45,308 Speaker 1: him on the field. I always, you know, ran about 346 00:15:45,348 --> 00:15:47,828 Speaker 1: this man, that Daniels. He's just like a real field general, 347 00:15:47,828 --> 00:15:50,268 Speaker 1: and I just think his preparation just makes it so 348 00:15:50,308 --> 00:15:52,428 Speaker 1: easy for him just to you know, be calm in 349 00:15:52,468 --> 00:15:54,588 Speaker 1: the pocket and be calm in those big pressure moments 350 00:15:54,588 --> 00:15:57,308 Speaker 1: in the game. I mean he's always pulling the receivers 351 00:15:57,308 --> 00:16:00,308 Speaker 1: to the side in between periods after practice just for 352 00:16:00,388 --> 00:16:03,308 Speaker 1: extra looks, extra routes, or telling us what he sees 353 00:16:03,348 --> 00:16:04,908 Speaker 1: so exactly how it's going to be in the game. 354 00:16:04,948 --> 00:16:06,908 Speaker 1: And it always plays out like that because he watches 355 00:16:06,948 --> 00:16:09,588 Speaker 1: so much film and studies so hard. So it's like 356 00:16:10,068 --> 00:16:12,308 Speaker 1: it's just motivating to see your quarterback worked out hard, 357 00:16:12,308 --> 00:16:14,548 Speaker 1: and it's also motivating to see him like carry the 358 00:16:14,548 --> 00:16:17,268 Speaker 1: team how he did. I mean there was one drive 359 00:16:17,308 --> 00:16:19,788 Speaker 1: that we had that was like nineteen or twenty plays 360 00:16:19,828 --> 00:16:22,788 Speaker 1: and he's running for half the drive and getting first 361 00:16:22,828 --> 00:16:24,868 Speaker 1: unds with his legs, and it's like, I'm coming back 362 00:16:24,868 --> 00:16:27,948 Speaker 1: to the huddle exhausted, and he is too, and you 363 00:16:27,988 --> 00:16:29,868 Speaker 1: know you see him just suck it up, call the 364 00:16:29,908 --> 00:16:32,348 Speaker 1: next play and get back out there and throw another diamond. 365 00:16:32,348 --> 00:16:34,188 Speaker 1: It's like, man, if he's still going, I gotta keep 366 00:16:34,228 --> 00:16:36,188 Speaker 1: going too. Yeah. I'm watching at home, and I saw 367 00:16:36,228 --> 00:16:37,988 Speaker 1: him after one of those runs. It almost looked like 368 00:16:37,988 --> 00:16:39,948 Speaker 1: he was looking at Dable like all right now, like 369 00:16:40,268 --> 00:16:42,708 Speaker 1: let me hand the ball off. But Isaiah, you were 370 00:16:42,788 --> 00:16:45,548 Speaker 1: drafted in a sixth round back in two thou and twenty. 371 00:16:45,588 --> 00:16:47,588 Speaker 1: I was a fellow six round or two, had to 372 00:16:47,588 --> 00:16:50,628 Speaker 1: make the practice squad. Eventually waved and got picked up 373 00:16:50,628 --> 00:16:52,628 Speaker 1: by the Giants and have played a huge role for 374 00:16:52,668 --> 00:16:55,628 Speaker 1: the team and their progress and momentum you guys have 375 00:16:55,788 --> 00:16:58,268 Speaker 1: going into the playoffs. Tell us about that journey and 376 00:16:58,268 --> 00:17:01,188 Speaker 1: how the relationship with Brian Dable and Joe Shane came 377 00:17:01,228 --> 00:17:03,868 Speaker 1: into play. It was definitely a journey, for sure. You know, 378 00:17:03,908 --> 00:17:06,188 Speaker 1: I'm for every part of it, and there was definitely 379 00:17:06,188 --> 00:17:08,388 Speaker 1: a part of me back when I was in Buffalo, 380 00:17:08,468 --> 00:17:10,188 Speaker 1: you know, as a sixth round pick. That was a 381 00:17:10,228 --> 00:17:12,628 Speaker 1: little just you know, not disappointed, but just you know, 382 00:17:12,708 --> 00:17:14,308 Speaker 1: one that rookie and me just wanted to get on 383 00:17:14,348 --> 00:17:16,188 Speaker 1: the field right away and just wanted to like play 384 00:17:16,268 --> 00:17:17,988 Speaker 1: right now, contibute right now. And you know I had 385 00:17:17,988 --> 00:17:19,788 Speaker 1: a couple of injuries that kind of helped me out 386 00:17:19,828 --> 00:17:21,708 Speaker 1: from doing that. But you know, I was just around 387 00:17:21,708 --> 00:17:24,268 Speaker 1: a great veteran group of veteran coaches, as you said, 388 00:17:24,268 --> 00:17:27,228 Speaker 1: you know, day Ball and you know Stefon Diggs and 389 00:17:27,788 --> 00:17:30,388 Speaker 1: John Brown, Emmanuel Sanders, just you know, all these household 390 00:17:30,468 --> 00:17:32,588 Speaker 1: names of just people who I could really sit here 391 00:17:32,588 --> 00:17:34,828 Speaker 1: and like learn from and you know, model my game 392 00:17:34,868 --> 00:17:37,228 Speaker 1: after and kind of you know, learn from different routes 393 00:17:37,268 --> 00:17:39,788 Speaker 1: and how to train like a pro, how to rehab 394 00:17:39,828 --> 00:17:41,348 Speaker 1: like a pro, how to you know, just do all 395 00:17:41,348 --> 00:17:43,788 Speaker 1: this stuff, and you know, build a real good relationship 396 00:17:43,788 --> 00:17:45,708 Speaker 1: with all those guys, especially you know, Dave Ball and 397 00:17:45,788 --> 00:17:48,628 Speaker 1: Joe Sheen and Jochen was actually one of the coaches 398 00:17:48,668 --> 00:17:51,548 Speaker 1: who came and like would watch my games in college 399 00:17:51,548 --> 00:17:53,308 Speaker 1: and like you know see me practice sometimes. You know, 400 00:17:53,428 --> 00:17:55,468 Speaker 1: like um, our relationship goes way back. So you know, 401 00:17:55,508 --> 00:17:56,948 Speaker 1: I'm just excited to be back in the building with 402 00:17:56,948 --> 00:17:59,148 Speaker 1: these guys. I love that. You know, Joe Shane is 403 00:17:59,268 --> 00:18:01,068 Speaker 1: viewed as the Giants GM now, but he was also 404 00:18:01,108 --> 00:18:03,588 Speaker 1: known as one of the best road scouts in all 405 00:18:03,588 --> 00:18:05,748 Speaker 1: of football, would be everywhere. So if he's at Oregon 406 00:18:05,788 --> 00:18:08,188 Speaker 1: State in Corvallis watching you play, you know he's put 407 00:18:08,188 --> 00:18:10,628 Speaker 1: the work in. You mentioned Shane, you mentioned Dabel there, 408 00:18:10,748 --> 00:18:14,268 Speaker 1: John Feliciano, Matt Brita, so many guys that were with 409 00:18:14,348 --> 00:18:17,228 Speaker 1: the Bills last year or with the Giants this year. 410 00:18:17,268 --> 00:18:19,068 Speaker 1: I have to think the last two weeks has been 411 00:18:19,068 --> 00:18:21,788 Speaker 1: incredibly emotional for you and light of the Damar Hamlin 412 00:18:21,868 --> 00:18:24,468 Speaker 1: lose tell us about the connective tissue between that Buffalo 413 00:18:24,508 --> 00:18:26,308 Speaker 1: locker room and some of you guys in New York 414 00:18:26,388 --> 00:18:28,468 Speaker 1: right now. You know, I think that pipeline, you know, 415 00:18:28,548 --> 00:18:31,028 Speaker 1: kind of runs deep, and you know everyone had those 416 00:18:31,388 --> 00:18:34,508 Speaker 1: heartfelt feelings, you know, towards Damar and you know, I 417 00:18:34,548 --> 00:18:35,748 Speaker 1: was able to talk to him a couple of times, 418 00:18:35,748 --> 00:18:37,588 Speaker 1: so that made me feel better, especially before the game. 419 00:18:37,628 --> 00:18:39,548 Speaker 1: But I mean there's a lot of people, you know, 420 00:18:39,628 --> 00:18:42,428 Speaker 1: from the Bills locker room who were there who were 421 00:18:42,468 --> 00:18:44,028 Speaker 1: now with the Giants, So you know, it's made this 422 00:18:44,068 --> 00:18:46,108 Speaker 1: locker room a little close, and you know, there's still 423 00:18:46,148 --> 00:18:48,068 Speaker 1: people over there who you know, who are rooting for 424 00:18:48,108 --> 00:18:49,948 Speaker 1: all of us over here just because of you know, 425 00:18:49,988 --> 00:18:52,188 Speaker 1: they know Dave Ball and they know, you know, all 426 00:18:52,188 --> 00:18:54,428 Speaker 1: the players here and everything. So it's just a real 427 00:18:54,868 --> 00:18:57,028 Speaker 1: close locker room here, and I love it. And you know, 428 00:18:57,068 --> 00:18:59,228 Speaker 1: that's one thing that I loved about Buffalo and day 429 00:18:59,268 --> 00:19:01,948 Speaker 1: Ball really brought that here and it's been real fun 430 00:19:01,988 --> 00:19:05,308 Speaker 1: so far. Two Bills sixth round picks last year, Isaiah 431 00:19:05,348 --> 00:19:08,908 Speaker 1: Hodgins and DeMar Hamlin. Pretty cool. And both your teams 432 00:19:08,908 --> 00:19:10,628 Speaker 1: are going to be out on the field this weekend, 433 00:19:10,668 --> 00:19:13,828 Speaker 1: but you're gonna be focused on the Philadelphia Eagles. Isaiah Hodgins. 434 00:19:13,868 --> 00:19:16,148 Speaker 1: We love your story. Keep on rock and keep doing 435 00:19:16,188 --> 00:19:18,548 Speaker 1: your thing and keep on taking New York City by storm. Yes, sir, 436 00:19:18,548 --> 00:19:34,268 Speaker 1: appreciated man. Thank you guys for having me again. After 437 00:19:34,348 --> 00:19:37,508 Speaker 1: dominating the Buccaneers on Monday night, Dak Prescott told reporters 438 00:19:37,548 --> 00:19:39,948 Speaker 1: the game was a chance for him to just dial 439 00:19:40,068 --> 00:19:43,428 Speaker 1: back in after he struggled against Commanders in Week eighteen. 440 00:19:43,628 --> 00:19:46,428 Speaker 1: Name the player who needs to be the most dialed 441 00:19:46,468 --> 00:19:49,548 Speaker 1: in for their divisional round matchup this weekend, Peter. This 442 00:19:49,668 --> 00:19:51,508 Speaker 1: can go a lot of places. Brett, Mary, you gotta 443 00:19:51,548 --> 00:19:54,708 Speaker 1: get there like we need you. You can't miss four 444 00:19:54,708 --> 00:19:57,428 Speaker 1: extra points in a game. I think Jerry Jones and 445 00:19:57,468 --> 00:20:00,188 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy, Will McClay and the rest of the folks 446 00:20:00,308 --> 00:20:01,948 Speaker 1: up there and Dallas turned a lot of grace over 447 00:20:01,948 --> 00:20:04,628 Speaker 1: the last twenty four hours. It seems like Mars still 448 00:20:04,668 --> 00:20:07,548 Speaker 1: on the team, still on the roster. They won the game. 449 00:20:07,868 --> 00:20:11,028 Speaker 1: This was inexplicable had they lost the game. This is 450 00:20:11,028 --> 00:20:13,668 Speaker 1: one of the all time goats in Cowboys history. What 451 00:20:13,748 --> 00:20:16,708 Speaker 1: a weird oddity that was. He's missed. He missed five 452 00:20:16,828 --> 00:20:18,828 Speaker 1: extra points in a row, going back to Week eighteen 453 00:20:18,828 --> 00:20:21,388 Speaker 1: against the Commanders in the first flour against Dallas, Brett Mark, 454 00:20:21,428 --> 00:20:22,948 Speaker 1: get it together, man, I don't know what to tell you. 455 00:20:23,108 --> 00:20:24,828 Speaker 1: I'm not a kicker. None of us at the table are. 456 00:20:24,948 --> 00:20:27,708 Speaker 1: Jamie's married to an ex former college kicker. Bret Mark 457 00:20:27,748 --> 00:20:29,388 Speaker 1: got dialing. Yeah, I got a numb for him. I 458 00:20:29,428 --> 00:20:31,588 Speaker 1: can't kick an extra point and I'm gonna go positive. 459 00:20:31,628 --> 00:20:34,588 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Patty Mahomes okay, how because he needs 460 00:20:34,628 --> 00:20:36,628 Speaker 1: to prove anything. I just miss him. We didn't get 461 00:20:36,668 --> 00:20:38,788 Speaker 1: a chance to watch him play this week. I want 462 00:20:38,788 --> 00:20:42,948 Speaker 1: to just see Patrick Mahomes out there making some incredible plays, spinning, 463 00:20:43,028 --> 00:20:45,388 Speaker 1: throwing the ball up in the air. We saw an 464 00:20:45,388 --> 00:20:49,628 Speaker 1: all season. They earned their bye week. Some would say, however, 465 00:20:49,708 --> 00:20:52,228 Speaker 1: you earn it, figure it all out, but they didn't 466 00:20:52,228 --> 00:20:55,588 Speaker 1: play this past week, and I just missed watching Patrick Mahomes. 467 00:20:55,588 --> 00:20:57,268 Speaker 1: So I can't wait to see him in the Divisional 468 00:20:57,428 --> 00:21:00,588 Speaker 1: and see what he has dialed up for the Jacksonville Jaguars. 469 00:21:00,588 --> 00:21:02,748 Speaker 1: I get it done, Patty. All right, here comes the 470 00:21:02,788 --> 00:21:07,188 Speaker 1: shout out from Patrick's I'm saying, it's Patrick, Patty ready 471 00:21:07,228 --> 00:21:10,388 Speaker 1: for that more? Listen, I'm gonna say, Jalen Hurts Eagles fans, 472 00:21:10,668 --> 00:21:12,508 Speaker 1: you should be excited about your team and what you 473 00:21:12,508 --> 00:21:14,548 Speaker 1: guys accomplished this season. I mean, there was a point 474 00:21:14,588 --> 00:21:16,508 Speaker 1: time we were talking about they're the best team in football. 475 00:21:16,588 --> 00:21:19,468 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts the MVP, and Peter you brought up earlier 476 00:21:19,468 --> 00:21:21,148 Speaker 1: on in the show about it's been a long time 477 00:21:21,388 --> 00:21:24,228 Speaker 1: thirty eight days, thirty eight days since they had that 478 00:21:24,348 --> 00:21:26,908 Speaker 1: slobber knocker against the Giants. Well, guess what. That was 479 00:21:26,948 --> 00:21:29,108 Speaker 1: also the last game that Jalen Hurts through a touchdown 480 00:21:29,148 --> 00:21:31,348 Speaker 1: pass in. That's how long it's been. Now. Look, he 481 00:21:31,428 --> 00:21:33,268 Speaker 1: was hurt, no doubt about it. Hurts the shoulder against 482 00:21:33,308 --> 00:21:35,868 Speaker 1: Chicago miss time. So that's the big part of it. 483 00:21:35,948 --> 00:21:38,308 Speaker 1: But even the week eighteen game, he just didn't look 484 00:21:38,348 --> 00:21:40,388 Speaker 1: like himself, and so I think for him, he's got 485 00:21:40,388 --> 00:21:42,188 Speaker 1: to be dialed in, got it locked in. There's nothing 486 00:21:42,228 --> 00:21:45,148 Speaker 1: worse than starting out a game at home like that 487 00:21:45,428 --> 00:21:47,388 Speaker 1: and just having a couple of clunkers skip a rock, 488 00:21:47,468 --> 00:21:49,388 Speaker 1: throw a ball high a little bit. He's gotta be 489 00:21:49,388 --> 00:21:51,268 Speaker 1: dialed in right from the get goal totally. Those are 490 00:21:51,268 --> 00:21:52,988 Speaker 1: good answers. I love all your answers. I'm gonna go 491 00:21:53,148 --> 00:21:56,708 Speaker 1: Josh Allen Strange. I'm not gonna say behavior because frankly, 492 00:21:56,868 --> 00:21:58,788 Speaker 1: I love his fire and his passion. But like he 493 00:21:58,828 --> 00:22:01,108 Speaker 1: got a little tuned up with Christian Wilkins last weekend 494 00:22:01,148 --> 00:22:03,988 Speaker 1: against Dolphins, he threw two picks. He was annoyed about that. 495 00:22:04,228 --> 00:22:06,028 Speaker 1: I think he's got a dialing in. This is gonna 496 00:22:06,028 --> 00:22:08,748 Speaker 1: be a heavy game. It's at home against the Bengals again, 497 00:22:08,868 --> 00:22:10,948 Speaker 1: the emotional weight on this team. I don't think you 498 00:22:10,948 --> 00:22:12,628 Speaker 1: can talk about it enough. And this is the guy 499 00:22:12,628 --> 00:22:14,548 Speaker 1: who's at the forefront of this team. So I don't 500 00:22:14,588 --> 00:22:16,748 Speaker 1: think he's not dialed in. I just think he needs 501 00:22:16,788 --> 00:22:19,228 Speaker 1: to really just take it a notch and just make 502 00:22:19,228 --> 00:22:22,188 Speaker 1: sure it's all on lockdown there, all right. Cowboys Niners 503 00:22:22,228 --> 00:22:25,948 Speaker 1: Divisional round game is the hottest matchup this weekend, with 504 00:22:26,028 --> 00:22:29,468 Speaker 1: fans paying at least five hundred and seventy bucks just 505 00:22:29,508 --> 00:22:32,028 Speaker 1: to get a ticket. The historic playoff matchup that you 506 00:22:32,068 --> 00:22:35,148 Speaker 1: would pay the most money to see live would be 507 00:22:35,228 --> 00:22:37,348 Speaker 1: you get to put yourself back in time, throw some 508 00:22:37,388 --> 00:22:39,268 Speaker 1: cash down at a table, get your way in Peter 509 00:22:39,268 --> 00:22:41,428 Speaker 1: where you're going?

Thirteen forty nine 513 00:22:52,588 --> 00:22:55,188 Speaker 1: Ers are leading, trying to run out the clock. Lawrence 514 00:22:55,228 --> 00:22:57,148 Speaker 1: Taylor says, I've got some things in mind to take 515 00:22:57,148 --> 00:23:00,548 Speaker 1: a listen to the call thirteen twelve nine Ers, fourth quarter, 516 00:23:00,628 --> 00:23:03,788 Speaker 1: two minutes left, Lawrence Taylor, do your thing first and 517 00:23:03,908 --> 00:23:10,148 Speaker 1: can behind Mala Scrimbat. Giants had the ball, Lawrence Taylor 518 00:23:10,188 --> 00:23:12,548 Speaker 1: out of the pack. You knew that the Giants were 519 00:23:12,628 --> 00:23:14,988 Speaker 1: going for it, so who should get it? Lawrence Taylor? 520 00:23:15,668 --> 00:23:19,868 Speaker 1: We have a minute away from Tampa bay Man Leonard Marshall. 521 00:23:19,868 --> 00:23:21,908 Speaker 1: We're a minute away from Tampa Bay. He would of 522 00:23:21,908 --> 00:23:26,468 Speaker 1: course knocked Joe Montana. Giants win fifteen to twelve Lawrence 523 00:23:26,508 --> 00:23:28,708 Speaker 1: Taylor in San Francisco in Candlestick, and then they would 524 00:23:28,708 --> 00:23:30,228 Speaker 1: go on to win the Super Bowl. A very Giants 525 00:23:30,308 --> 00:23:32,348 Speaker 1: friendly show this morning. That one got me the chills 526 00:23:32,348 --> 00:23:34,028 Speaker 1: in the summer. Roll on the call, Jason, what do 527 00:23:34,068 --> 00:23:35,988 Speaker 1: you got? Sean Hawars just brought the Giants. Now we're 528 00:23:36,028 --> 00:23:40,028 Speaker 1: all going there. I'm going the Big Ben tackle back 529 00:23:40,028 --> 00:23:43,588 Speaker 1: in two applied the divisional round. I'm a senior in 530 00:23:43,788 --> 00:23:46,868 Speaker 1: high school and I'm watching this game and the Steelers 531 00:23:46,948 --> 00:23:49,508 Speaker 1: kind of dominated the colst throughout that game. And then 532 00:23:49,588 --> 00:23:51,588 Speaker 1: next thing you know, Jerome Bennis is going in to 533 00:23:51,668 --> 00:23:54,828 Speaker 1: put the game away and score fumbles it. Gary Brackett 534 00:23:54,868 --> 00:23:57,828 Speaker 1: makes a huge tackle. Nick Harper picks the ball up 535 00:23:58,028 --> 00:24:01,668 Speaker 1: and Big Ben saves today and you fast forward I 536 00:24:01,748 --> 00:24:04,188 Speaker 1: get into the NFL. There was so many guys on 537 00:24:04,228 --> 00:24:07,188 Speaker 1: the field that impacted my career. Nick Harper was the 538 00:24:07,268 --> 00:24:09,708 Speaker 1: starting cornerback in front of me when I first got 539 00:24:09,748 --> 00:24:12,908 Speaker 1: to Tennessee. Chris Holt was a mentor for me, David Thorton, 540 00:24:13,188 --> 00:24:15,428 Speaker 1: all of those guys to Shay Townsend was a coach 541 00:24:15,468 --> 00:24:17,708 Speaker 1: for me at one point. All of those guys were 542 00:24:17,748 --> 00:24:20,428 Speaker 1: playing in that game. Crazy to be watching it in 543 00:24:20,428 --> 00:24:22,828 Speaker 1: a high school and fast forward look around. I'm like, man, 544 00:24:22,868 --> 00:24:25,028 Speaker 1: I'm in the same locker room with guys I was 545 00:24:25,028 --> 00:24:27,188 Speaker 1: watching at Meyer and back in high school. Really cool. 546 00:24:27,908 --> 00:24:30,308 Speaker 1: I love the Big Ben Aryan. Anytime you can bring 547 00:24:30,348 --> 00:24:32,628 Speaker 1: up Big Ben, it's it's that's a good time. It was. 548 00:24:32,668 --> 00:24:35,468 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna I'm gonna peel back the clock as well, 549 00:24:35,548 --> 00:24:38,868 Speaker 1: Shregs like you did. And about eight days ago, the 550 00:24:38,988 --> 00:24:42,308 Speaker 1: celebrated the forty third anniversary of this game. It's not 551 00:24:42,308 --> 00:24:44,228 Speaker 1: even the Super Bowl, but when you have an anniversary, 552 00:24:44,308 --> 00:24:47,228 Speaker 1: you know it's a big game. Nineteen eighty one NFC 553 00:24:47,348 --> 00:24:50,148 Speaker 1: Championship Game forty nine Ers Cowboys. We're going back to 554 00:24:50,188 --> 00:24:52,708 Speaker 1: cattle Stick where you just were, Peter Yep. And this 555 00:24:53,028 --> 00:24:55,348 Speaker 1: game obviously is known for that play right there, the 556 00:24:55,468 --> 00:24:57,588 Speaker 1: catch to Dwight Clark in the back of the end zone. 557 00:24:58,028 --> 00:24:59,908 Speaker 1: Forty Niners were down in this game, all right, This 558 00:24:59,988 --> 00:25:02,708 Speaker 1: was a game winning drive right here. They had to 559 00:25:02,748 --> 00:25:04,828 Speaker 1: come back and take the lead. In my Tannis a 560 00:25:04,868 --> 00:25:09,468 Speaker 1: sprint right option and his first option, the fullback actually 561 00:25:09,508 --> 00:25:11,348 Speaker 1: trips and slips and goes down. That's why he found 562 00:25:11,428 --> 00:25:13,508 Speaker 1: Dwight Clark look for a second read. So I would 563 00:25:13,508 --> 00:25:15,388 Speaker 1: love to have been at this game. We've all seen this, 564 00:25:15,588 --> 00:25:18,948 Speaker 1: that throw, that play. But the backstory with that is 565 00:25:18,988 --> 00:25:21,108 Speaker 1: the Fort and Iris had lost twice in that same 566 00:25:21,188 --> 00:25:23,588 Speaker 1: NFC Chance of game to the Cowboys a decade earlier, 567 00:25:23,668 --> 00:25:26,028 Speaker 1: so this had been brewing for a long time. So 568 00:25:26,108 --> 00:25:28,748 Speaker 1: that game was paramount on so many levels. I also 569 00:25:28,788 --> 00:25:30,588 Speaker 1: bring that up because I have a personal connection with 570 00:25:30,708 --> 00:25:32,828 Speaker 1: Dwight Clark, so rest his soul. We lost him a 571 00:25:32,868 --> 00:25:34,548 Speaker 1: few years ago to als, but he was with the 572 00:25:34,548 --> 00:25:37,348 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns when I was there. Great man. Loved being 573 00:25:37,388 --> 00:25:39,268 Speaker 1: around him, him and his family, great people. So I 574 00:25:39,308 --> 00:25:40,908 Speaker 1: would have loved to be there, been there to see 575 00:25:40,948 --> 00:25:42,588 Speaker 1: that person. I like these memory lanes. I'm not going 576 00:25:42,668 --> 00:25:44,068 Speaker 1: to write my answer. Peter, you would to help me out. 577 00:25:44,068 --> 00:25:45,908 Speaker 1: You want the helmet catch, I want the helmet catch. 578 00:25:45,988 --> 00:25:52,028 Speaker 1: That house is a playoff game, right, very want Why 579 00:25:52,028 --> 00:25:54,028 Speaker 1: don't he snap it to me? Not? There a two? Okay, great, here, 580 00:25:54,068 --> 00:25:55,948 Speaker 1: let's try again. You know what let's not And then 581 00:25:55,988 --> 00:25:58,028 Speaker 1: there was whatever and it turns into a Saturday Night 582 00:25:58,068 --> 00:25:59,988 Speaker 1: Alive spoof. Then you know it was a great game. 583 00:25:59,988 --> 00:26:01,348 Speaker 1: I kind of wish I was there. It was like 584 00:26:01,348 --> 00:26:04,948 Speaker 1: the onset of Twitter. But if you were in the stadium, 585 00:26:05,268 --> 00:26:08,188 Speaker 1: I can't believe the puzzle that went down on people's 586 00:26:08,268 --> 00:26:11,348 Speaker 1: and the people were pissed, people were happy, people were 587 00:26:11,468 --> 00:26:12,788 Speaker 1: I just want to be in a moment like that, 588 00:26:12,828 --> 00:26:15,348 Speaker 1: were like the utter confusion on a play like that, 589 00:26:15,428 --> 00:26:17,868 Speaker 1: and then the celebration and the Giants win and just 590 00:26:17,948 --> 00:26:19,828 Speaker 1: the upset, Oh so great. I don't even want to 591 00:26:19,828 --> 00:26:21,588 Speaker 1: write it down. Do you know where that Super Bowl 592 00:26:21,708 --> 00:26:24,388 Speaker 1: was played? Glendale? Do you know where Super Bowl this 593 00:26:24,468 --> 00:26:29,828 Speaker 1: year is playing? Glendale? The connective tissue, Peter, Listen, we 594 00:26:29,868 --> 00:26:32,108 Speaker 1: had a third question for Whiteboard, but Kyle's not here 595 00:26:32,148 --> 00:26:33,308 Speaker 1: and so we don't have to do it because it 596 00:26:33,348 --> 00:26:36,108 Speaker 1: was television and movie related coming up?

Okay, already, Yes, wild Card Weekend maybe over, 608 00:27:20,588 --> 00:27:22,428 Speaker 1: but some of the performances could be a sign of 609 00:27:22,468 --> 00:27:24,628 Speaker 1: things to come in the divisional round. Please grab a 610 00:27:24,628 --> 00:27:26,988 Speaker 1: hat of the team that impressed you most in wild 611 00:27:27,108 --> 00:27:30,948 Speaker 1: Card weekend. Peter, We've got an awesome array of teams, 612 00:27:30,988 --> 00:27:32,548 Speaker 1: and I can go one by one by one. There's 613 00:27:32,548 --> 00:27:34,748 Speaker 1: eight teams left, giving his squad right here. I think 614 00:27:34,788 --> 00:27:36,468 Speaker 1: the Cowboys put on a perfect game. And now I 615 00:27:36,468 --> 00:27:38,428 Speaker 1: know the Buccaneers aren't good. I know that they showed 616 00:27:38,468 --> 00:27:40,468 Speaker 1: it all season. We're expecting the Bucks to somehow they 617 00:27:40,468 --> 00:27:43,548 Speaker 1: weren't good. But guess what, the Cowboys really were good. 618 00:27:43,588 --> 00:27:46,268 Speaker 1: And I think everything was working except that kicker. I'm 619 00:27:46,308 --> 00:27:50,268 Speaker 1: going with the Cowboys most impressive wild Card Weekend when 620 00:27:50,668 --> 00:27:53,948 Speaker 1: came in here and absolutely embarrassed Tom Brady and the Buccaneers. 621 00:27:54,188 --> 00:27:57,188 Speaker 1: I know where twenty four hours removed from that game 622 00:27:57,308 --> 00:28:00,268 Speaker 1: or thirty six hours. I'm still in shock of how 623 00:28:00,348 --> 00:28:03,788 Speaker 1: much of a destruction that was. Dac looked great, the 624 00:28:03,868 --> 00:28:06,868 Speaker 1: defense even better, and Mike McCarthy didn't make any mistakes 625 00:28:06,908 --> 00:28:09,708 Speaker 1: of note again, the kicker will get that settled, get 626 00:28:09,708 --> 00:28:12,468 Speaker 1: that figured out, but DAC will just absolutely tore through 627 00:28:12,508 --> 00:28:14,468 Speaker 1: Todd Bowls's defense and then the defense of the same 628 00:28:14,508 --> 00:28:18,428 Speaker 1: to Byron Leftwitch's offense. So Cowboys, how about the Boys? Yeah? 629 00:28:18,468 --> 00:28:20,108 Speaker 1: I love it, and Sean, I'll have you do me 630 00:28:20,228 --> 00:28:23,148 Speaker 1: the honors. Could you please pass me that New York Giants? 631 00:28:23,148 --> 00:28:28,748 Speaker 1: Oh yes, last week heading into the playoffs, I was 632 00:28:28,748 --> 00:28:30,508 Speaker 1: on this show and a lot of people were upset 633 00:28:30,548 --> 00:28:34,028 Speaker 1: on Twitter when I said, experience means nothing in the playoffs. 634 00:28:34,268 --> 00:28:38,908 Speaker 1: It's about execution. The lights aren't brighter, guys aren't hitting harder, 635 00:28:39,268 --> 00:28:42,868 Speaker 1: running faster. They're playing the same game of football. Yes, 636 00:28:42,988 --> 00:28:45,908 Speaker 1: there's added pressure, but when you watched the New York Giants, 637 00:28:46,068 --> 00:28:48,548 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones never played in a playoff game. Say Kwon 638 00:28:48,628 --> 00:28:52,308 Speaker 1: Barkley never played in a playoff game. Extra Lawrence out there, 639 00:28:52,628 --> 00:28:55,628 Speaker 1: Bryan Dable head coach in the playoff game. First time 640 00:28:55,868 --> 00:28:58,388 Speaker 1: we had Isaiah Hodges on the show, he had over 641 00:28:58,388 --> 00:29:01,108 Speaker 1: one hundred yards and a touchdown in that game. These 642 00:29:01,188 --> 00:29:04,228 Speaker 1: New York Giants went into Minnesota on the road, a 643 00:29:04,428 --> 00:29:07,988 Speaker 1: lot of guys and the first playoff experience, and they 644 00:29:08,068 --> 00:29:11,148 Speaker 1: figured out how to win. And not only the defense 645 00:29:11,188 --> 00:29:13,908 Speaker 1: playing well, Sean said earlier, the offense going out there 646 00:29:14,228 --> 00:29:17,708 Speaker 1: making play after play. So I was impressed by the 647 00:29:17,748 --> 00:29:19,748 Speaker 1: New York Giants. I know that game. Everybody was saying, hey, 648 00:29:19,788 --> 00:29:21,868 Speaker 1: they could beat the team to come out with a victory, 649 00:29:21,948 --> 00:29:24,268 Speaker 1: the underdogs. They did that, and they did it in 650 00:29:24,308 --> 00:29:26,308 Speaker 1: an impressive way. Yeah, I was impressed with the way 651 00:29:26,348 --> 00:29:29,708 Speaker 1: they shut down, justin Jefferson, Bory Jackson coming out there 652 00:29:29,708 --> 00:29:32,548 Speaker 1: and played well. All right, listen, I'm gonna lean over 653 00:29:32,548 --> 00:29:35,708 Speaker 1: here towards the AFC and I'm gonna grab this hat. 654 00:29:36,148 --> 00:29:39,388 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. And the Jacksonville Jaguars. Let me just 655 00:29:39,428 --> 00:29:42,588 Speaker 1: say this in all honesty, I fell asleep on the couch, 656 00:29:43,188 --> 00:29:46,068 Speaker 1: but they were down, and I was like, all right, 657 00:29:46,148 --> 00:29:48,868 Speaker 1: heads by, like just go to bed, like give up 658 00:29:48,868 --> 00:29:51,268 Speaker 1: a fight. Like I was like throwing to damn towel, 659 00:29:51,468 --> 00:29:54,428 Speaker 1: throw it out like I'd said, I gave it. I 660 00:29:54,468 --> 00:29:58,388 Speaker 1: woke up at like midnight, and what the heck happened? 661 00:29:58,468 --> 00:30:00,468 Speaker 1: I had to rewind. I had to go back how 662 00:30:00,508 --> 00:30:03,708 Speaker 1: in the world did they turn this game around? And look, 663 00:30:03,748 --> 00:30:05,868 Speaker 1: I'm sorry for any charters fans that are up early 664 00:30:05,908 --> 00:30:07,468 Speaker 1: and you've got to kind of relive this moment. But 665 00:30:08,108 --> 00:30:10,868 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence, I've never seen anybody just kind of dust 666 00:30:10,868 --> 00:30:12,628 Speaker 1: your shoulder off, like all right, hey, look, I've thrown 667 00:30:12,628 --> 00:30:14,628 Speaker 1: a couple of bad picks. Some were my faults, some work, 668 00:30:14,788 --> 00:30:17,148 Speaker 1: let's go. Let's just let's put this team on my arm. 669 00:30:17,228 --> 00:30:19,748 Speaker 1: Let's go. And he willed them back. I was so 670 00:30:19,828 --> 00:30:22,188 Speaker 1: happy for Trevor Lawrence as a young quarterback to get 671 00:30:22,188 --> 00:30:24,668 Speaker 1: that kind of win. It's almost like, you know, like 672 00:30:24,708 --> 00:30:26,948 Speaker 1: the Steve Young moment, right when you finally won that 673 00:30:26,948 --> 00:30:28,748 Speaker 1: playoff game, and it was like, all right, you know what, 674 00:30:28,948 --> 00:30:30,988 Speaker 1: this is kind of like a new era for him, 675 00:30:31,028 --> 00:30:32,988 Speaker 1: but also for Doug Peterson. He's kind of had to 676 00:30:33,028 --> 00:30:35,028 Speaker 1: recycle his career a little bit. That guy's been in 677 00:30:35,068 --> 00:30:37,828 Speaker 1: the mountaintop. And for the Jacksonville Jaguars to do what 678 00:30:37,868 --> 00:30:41,268 Speaker 1: they did against the Chargers was pretty impressive. Give me 679 00:30:41,388 --> 00:30:44,228 Speaker 1: that forty nine ers capital. Okay, okay, take it here, 680 00:30:44,308 --> 00:30:46,308 Speaker 1: big blowout. Have these guys in the Super Bowl. But 681 00:30:46,308 --> 00:30:47,868 Speaker 1: I feel like it was his efficacy when it was 682 00:30:47,908 --> 00:30:49,828 Speaker 1: three quarterbacks ago that I couldn't come to be in 683 00:30:49,828 --> 00:30:52,788 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Whatever, ride with your decision. Seahawks were 684 00:30:52,908 --> 00:30:55,668 Speaker 1: winning this game at halftime. It was seventeen sixteen. The 685 00:30:55,748 --> 00:30:59,588 Speaker 1: forty nine Ers scored twenty five unanswered points in the 686 00:30:59,628 --> 00:31:02,828 Speaker 1: second half. They put up five hundred and five yards 687 00:31:02,868 --> 00:31:08,268 Speaker 1: of total offense against the Seahawks. Their defense had ten 688 00:31:08,388 --> 00:31:12,828 Speaker 1: pressures on Gino Will Gino Smith, nine hits and two sacks. 689 00:31:13,588 --> 00:31:15,628 Speaker 1: If that's not a complete team, I don't know what 690 00:31:15,708 --> 00:31:18,588 Speaker 1: to tell ye what Rock forty is doing. And listen, 691 00:31:18,828 --> 00:31:21,068 Speaker 1: we have a What's your Beef segment later in the show. 692 00:31:21,588 --> 00:31:23,228 Speaker 1: I have to talk about rock Porty a little bit. 693 00:31:23,228 --> 00:31:24,908 Speaker 1: There's someone to save, so I'm on material for that. 694 00:31:25,028 --> 00:31:27,468 Speaker 1: Just know that I've been so impressed with this forty 695 00:31:27,548 --> 00:31:29,228 Speaker 1: nine Ers team and I cannot wait to watch them 696 00:31:29,348 --> 00:31:32,828 Speaker 1: this weekend. Okay, So, as much as we've watched and 697 00:31:32,868 --> 00:31:35,988 Speaker 1: dissected the eight divisional round teams, there will always be 698 00:31:36,028 --> 00:31:37,988 Speaker 1: mysteries to be solved before they take the field. Please 699 00:31:38,028 --> 00:31:40,268 Speaker 1: grab the head of the divisional round team that you 700 00:31:40,548 --> 00:31:44,428 Speaker 1: have the most questions about heading into this weekend, question 701 00:31:44,508 --> 00:31:48,668 Speaker 1: Mark Schreger. Oh, Sean, you go first, Sean, you know 702 00:31:48,668 --> 00:31:53,908 Speaker 1: who you got over there? I have no idea. All right, 703 00:31:54,268 --> 00:31:57,828 Speaker 1: here we are, yet again in the postseason, talking about 704 00:31:58,188 --> 00:32:00,068 Speaker 1: Look at this offense for the bank Man, Joe Burrow, 705 00:32:00,188 --> 00:32:02,788 Speaker 1: Chimar Chase, Joe Mix and T Higgins. Look at what 706 00:32:02,828 --> 00:32:06,788 Speaker 1: these guys are doing offensively, and yet like, protecting the 707 00:32:06,868 --> 00:32:10,308 Speaker 1: quarterback is a huge liability right now. Look, first lyle 708 00:32:10,388 --> 00:32:12,748 Speaker 1: Collins goes down, all right, and then Dentagy is in 709 00:32:12,788 --> 00:32:15,708 Speaker 1: there at right tackle. Now Jonah Williams is out, and 710 00:32:15,948 --> 00:32:18,788 Speaker 1: Jackson Carmen has to come in and play left tackle. 711 00:32:19,588 --> 00:32:21,948 Speaker 1: When you get to the playoffs, all right, and all 712 00:32:21,988 --> 00:32:25,308 Speaker 1: these big games, Look, the third downs become so crucial. 713 00:32:25,628 --> 00:32:29,068 Speaker 1: Your tackles have to hold up. I just don't know 714 00:32:29,788 --> 00:32:31,828 Speaker 1: what they're gonna do. I don't know. I don't think 715 00:32:31,828 --> 00:32:35,108 Speaker 1: it hold up. And look the Bills defense, Look, no 716 00:32:35,228 --> 00:32:37,268 Speaker 1: von Miller, I get it, but Greg Russeau has been 717 00:32:37,268 --> 00:32:39,588 Speaker 1: taken over some games. This defense has been flying around. 718 00:32:39,748 --> 00:32:41,108 Speaker 1: This is going to be a big challenge. I got 719 00:32:41,108 --> 00:32:43,428 Speaker 1: a lot of question marks about who is going to 720 00:32:43,548 --> 00:32:46,868 Speaker 1: protect Joe Burrown? Can they do it? All right? So 721 00:32:47,068 --> 00:32:49,108 Speaker 1: the best team in the wild car around, right, and 722 00:32:49,148 --> 00:32:50,948 Speaker 1: I went over to the top over the moon. My 723 00:32:50,988 --> 00:32:55,308 Speaker 1: biggest question, Mark or the Cowboys remember getting Sunday. I 724 00:32:55,308 --> 00:32:58,268 Speaker 1: don't know, because the Cowboys did beat the Vikings forty 725 00:32:58,268 --> 00:33:00,588 Speaker 1: to three in a nationally televised game, and we did 726 00:33:00,588 --> 00:33:03,628 Speaker 1: the same coronation and parade for Dallas, and then a 727 00:33:03,628 --> 00:33:06,348 Speaker 1: couple of weeks later we're losing to the Jacksonville Jaguars 728 00:33:06,348 --> 00:33:08,868 Speaker 1: after giving up a seventeen point lead. So my question 729 00:33:08,948 --> 00:33:11,428 Speaker 1: is can the Cowboys sustain it? The wild card win 730 00:33:11,588 --> 00:33:13,708 Speaker 1: was awesome. You put that in your back pocket. It 731 00:33:13,788 --> 00:33:16,668 Speaker 1: means nothing. If you go and you lose this around, 732 00:33:16,668 --> 00:33:19,028 Speaker 1: you're just another team that lost that narrowed it down 733 00:33:19,068 --> 00:33:21,268 Speaker 1: to the final eight. You get to the final four, 734 00:33:21,588 --> 00:33:25,468 Speaker 1: you're the first Cowboys team to make the NFC Championship 735 00:33:25,508 --> 00:33:29,508 Speaker 1: game since nineteen ninety five. That's real, that's something. And 736 00:33:29,548 --> 00:33:31,428 Speaker 1: you're going up against the best defense in the league, 737 00:33:31,428 --> 00:33:33,748 Speaker 1: which San Fransco forty nine ers. My big question, Marcus, 738 00:33:33,788 --> 00:33:35,828 Speaker 1: can you do it again? Can you keep that going? 739 00:33:35,948 --> 00:33:39,148 Speaker 1: Or was Tampa just a really crappy team? Here? Give 740 00:33:39,188 --> 00:33:41,468 Speaker 1: me that hat? What are you going? Are you with me? Well? 741 00:33:41,508 --> 00:33:43,988 Speaker 1: He said, there we go, you go, there we go. 742 00:33:45,788 --> 00:33:47,748 Speaker 1: I'm passed me to no. I don't want to Cowboys, 743 00:33:47,748 --> 00:33:50,748 Speaker 1: Hawsman the Jaguars hat sean win when most impressive win 744 00:33:50,828 --> 00:33:52,668 Speaker 1: for the Jags. I was at this game. I was 745 00:33:52,708 --> 00:33:55,068 Speaker 1: calling it for the radio Westwoodwall win. I an eagle, 746 00:33:55,188 --> 00:33:58,468 Speaker 1: And like you said, the first half was awful, Trevor Lawrence. 747 00:33:58,708 --> 00:34:02,028 Speaker 1: Five turnovers in the first half. Well, now they're playing 748 00:34:02,108 --> 00:34:05,668 Speaker 1: against the Kansas City Chiefs on the old Arrowhead Stadium. 749 00:34:05,788 --> 00:34:07,468 Speaker 1: Which team are we gonna get? We're gonna get the 750 00:34:07,468 --> 00:34:09,268 Speaker 1: team in the first half or the team in the 751 00:34:09,348 --> 00:34:11,748 Speaker 1: second half. Have they figured out what went wrong in 752 00:34:11,788 --> 00:34:13,988 Speaker 1: the first half to correct it to go out there 753 00:34:13,988 --> 00:34:16,828 Speaker 1: and perform better. They're gonna have to put up some points. 754 00:34:17,068 --> 00:34:20,468 Speaker 1: Kansas City scores so many and they get it done 755 00:34:20,468 --> 00:34:21,828 Speaker 1: each and every week. So I have question marks of 756 00:34:21,908 --> 00:34:23,708 Speaker 1: the Jazz. As fun as that game was and as 757 00:34:23,748 --> 00:34:26,428 Speaker 1: amazing as that comeback was, they go down twenty seven 758 00:34:26,428 --> 00:34:28,628 Speaker 1: points in the Kansas City Chiefs. They have no shot 759 00:34:28,628 --> 00:34:31,308 Speaker 1: in coming back in that one, right, Awesome, awesome, awesome, 760 00:34:31,308 --> 00:34:31,668 Speaker 1: awesome
