John 3 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 2: Middlecoff three and Out podcast. Hopefully everyone's doing well, living 4 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,759 Speaker 2: out there in the real world, having a good day, 5 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 2: having a great week. I recorded last week at the end, 6 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 2: I think on Thursday or Friday. I can't even all 7 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,160 Speaker 2: the days run together with Stucky, and I was gonna 8 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:37,920 Speaker 2: put it out on Monday, but like I said earlier, 9 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 2: this week, we had some stuff come up, so I 10 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 2: realized I'm gonna be traveling, might not be able to 11 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 2: record one. Don't want to skip a day, so let's 12 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 2: put him out today on Wednesday, and that is what 13 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 2: we're gonna do. So this will be our talk with 14 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,639 Speaker 2: Stucky from all things gambling, I mean, the line hasn't changed. 15 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 2: The storylines and the themes of these two teams obviously haven't changed. 16 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 2: We don't have much clarity on the Drake may injury. 17 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,400 Speaker 2: I mean he's gonna play as Sam donold. I was 18 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 2: told he was hurt and then his oblique looked fine. 19 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 2: He was slaying it all over the last couple of weeks. 20 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 2: So yeah, we'll hit everything from betting on the game, 21 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 2: to the trends to some props. We'll kind of dive 22 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 2: deep into this matchup. Which super Bowl sixty I almost 23 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 2: said San Francisco, California. The Super Bowl festivities are in 24 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 2: San Francisco. The game is in Santa Clara Levi Stadium, 25 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 2: which I've seen a lot of football games there, and 26 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 2: I actually saw the one and only Super Bowl that 27 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: they hosted when the Broncos upset the Panthers. It didn't 28 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 2: feel like an upset to me, but they technically, by 29 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 2: gambling standpoint, were a several point underdog. I think it 30 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 2: closed like one and a half. But von Miller MVP 31 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 2: and the rest history. And this one's for Pat, as 32 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 2: John Alway said when Jim Nance handed him the trophy 33 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 2: as he was the GM at the time.

But before 45 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 2: we hit record, we were talking college basketball. We were 46 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 2: talking Mario Christobal, who you know, Dabo goes on this 47 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 2: rant about Ole Miss, But the University of Miami, they 48 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 2: are they will steal any player in their path. And 49 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 2: obviously we've got the Super Bowl because Seattle takes on 50 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 2: the New England Patriots at Levi Stadium where the last 51 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: time San Francisco hosted that bad boy, there was I 52 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 2: don't want to say a big upset, but the Denver 53 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 2: Bronco were an underdog against the Carolina Panthers, and your 54 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 2: boy who attended that game at the time, I mean 55 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 2: I definitely didn't have enough money to put I think 56 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 2: I put a total of a round five thousand dollars 57 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 2: on the Broncos and it was an very uncomfortable amount 58 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 2: of money at the time, a decade ago, and it 59 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 2: was sweet and I was there around the fifty yard line. 60 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 2: That was badass. And now we get a game kind. 61 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: Of right at the Super Bowl. 62 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 2: No, this that was Denver Seattle, This was like, ye 63 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: got it? 64 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: That was that Cam Newton, don't go after the ball one. 65 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, this was the I think the first drive. Peyton 66 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,840 Speaker 2: had the noodle arm. But they drove and they scored. 67 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 2: And then I felt so comfortable with Denver because I 68 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 2: was doing like local radio postgame shows for the Raiders, 69 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 2: so I was just watching these teams in person and 70 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 2: watching that Denver team for like the three plus years. 71 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 2: Their defense was incredible. Their their d line, Von Miller 72 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 2: in his prime, where was still elite. Malik Jackson and 73 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 2: Derek Wolf. People forget Wolf and Malik Jackson, World problem inside, 74 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 2: Trevathan Brandon Marshall, all their dbs, TJ. Ward, They had 75 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 2: a bunch of cover corners. Remember Chris Harris Junior was 76 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 2: their slot guy. They wrecked shop on defense. Now, Peyton's 77 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 2: arm didn't work, but if that defense was playing right 78 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 2: now in the NFL would be the number one defense 79 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 2: by far. 80 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: Funny thing about that Super Bowl, I mean there's a 81 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: lot of like revisionists, people like, well we're you know, 82 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: as time passes, you people remember certain things like it's 83 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: all about like the Ravens winning the Super Bowl in 84 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: twenty twelve. People think because it was Ray Lewis and 85 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: Ed Reid. That was all about their defense. But they 86 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: were over the hill. Their defense stunk. That was all 87 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: Joe Flacco just going on a miraculous run. And then 88 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: that Broncos team. People think, oh, it's Peyton Manning. No, 89 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 1: that was all about the defense. The second so Emmanuel 90 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: Sanders at six catches in that game. The second leading 91 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 1: receiver in a game that the Broncos won comfortably was 92 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 1: Andre Caldwell, who had one catch for twenty two yards. 93 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,039 Speaker 1: That's it. Owen Daniels had one catch for eighteen yards, 94 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: and that's basically the entire path. I mean, Manning was 95 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: thirteen to twenty three for one hundred and forty yards 96 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: an interception. That defense was legit right on bar with 97 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: this historically good Seattle defense. 98 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 2: Well, if they would have had like again, because I 99 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: was seeing that team live the peak Manning of like 100 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 2: three years previously, the guy that won the MVP and 101 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 2: threw fifty five touchdowns. If that version would have been 102 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 2: on that team, I mean, I think it would have 103 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: gone down as like one of the greatest teams of 104 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 2: all time because the offense when he first got there 105 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 2: was unstoppable and then it kind of rotated and they 106 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 2: kind of met in the middle the two years before 107 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 2: when they played Seattle's like this team is incredible. They 108 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 2: sunk it up in that Super Bowl. But then his 109 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: arm didn't work. People forget he got bench for us 110 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: Wiler that year. Remember Elway had to like give him 111 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 2: kind of a talk, you know, like, hey man, this 112 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 2: is it was like did he get benched? And then 113 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: he went to Kubiak's office and Lway was sitting there, 114 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 2: and then they asked him to take a pay cut. 115 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 2: You know, it was kind of getting weird, but it 116 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 2: won the Super Bowl, and you know, time heals all 117 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 2: kind of weirdness and no one even remembers it. It's like, 118 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 2: oh that Peyton Manning. 119 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's it's pretty insane that of just how 120 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,720 Speaker 1: cooked he was and how much it didn't matter because 121 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 1: the defense was just that good. And yeah, we're looking 122 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: at how. 123 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 2: Many defensive players have ever won the MVP definitely in 124 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 2: the last twenty five years. Is he the only one? 125 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 2: What's his name on the Bucks? 126 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: Dexter Jackson won it on the Bucks. And the weird 127 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: thing about Dexter Jackson winning it and Malcolm Smith for 128 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, Oh yeah, Ray Lewis won it, but back 129 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: that was in two thousand and then there was a 130 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: couple before then, in the seventies and eighties. 131 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 2: One of the guys on the Cowboys won it dB 132 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 2: and then the Al Davis signed him. I forget his name, 133 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 2: not Darren Woodson, but I thought like in ninety four 134 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,799 Speaker 2: or ninety five, maybe Larry Brown. 135 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: Is that it? Yeah, and then there was a defensive 136 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: player who won MVP from a losing team, which is 137 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: something that. 138 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 2: Is that possible in football like it is in hockey. 139 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 2: You know when they give the consmyc like the goalie 140 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 2: in a game seven. I think it's happened before. Pretty rare, 141 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 2: but I feel like football it would be impossible. Because 142 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 2: Brady made the argument that one year when he threw 143 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 2: five hundred yards and they lost to the Eagles. 144 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's pretty it's amazing to think. I mean, 145 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: the Colts beat the Cowboys sixteen thirteen. It was known 146 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: as the Blunde This was in the early seventies. It 147 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: was known as the Blunderbowl, and the Colts won in 148 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: the last second field goal. It was just turnovers. There 149 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: was nothing but turnovers the entire game. It was the 150 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: first game ever played on artificial turf, and yeah, a 151 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 1: linebacker Chuck Colly won the MVP, so uh, there was 152 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: twelve turnovers in the game. If you can believe that. 153 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 2: I feel like the Super Bowl MVP. I don't know. 154 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 2: It's like when you bring up Cooper Cup. Maybe it's 155 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 2: just the time twenty twenty one, you know, I don't 156 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 2: because for Edelman, I feel it sticks. But he was 157 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: part of twenty eight three. It's like probably one of 158 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 2: the most famous games and like definitely of our lifetime. 159 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 2: I'm not even super Bowl, non super Bowl whatever, like 160 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 2: no one ever. Twenty eight threes is just a just 161 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 2: a moment that most people don't forget. I feel like 162 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,199 Speaker 2: Cooper Cup, most people don't really remember. Like if you 163 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 2: just like, hey, I introduced you to Cooper Cup, like, 164 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 2: oh that do they play for the Rams? It was 165 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 2: a really good wide receiver for a long time. Do 166 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 2: you think people would be like, oh, that's super Bowl MVP. 167 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: No, that's true. I mean, yeah, the Super Bowl MVP. 168 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: You had that bomb, you had Bon Miller in twenty sixteen, 169 00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: Malcolm Smith in twenty fourteen. But I mean going back 170 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: to other than that, if you go all the way 171 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: back to you know, the past twenty years, it's just 172 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: quarterbacks and receivers. So I mean there is a world 173 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: where this is just a super defensive, low scoring game. 174 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 2: Well, the quarterbacks hurt. Well, I mean obviously we've seen Donald, 175 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 2: but what about the other guy? 176 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, May, I mean they say there could be a shoulder. 177 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to be much. But yeah, 178 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 1: we don't know as of right now. I'm not reading 179 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: too much into it. But yeah, I mean there's a 180 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: chance that May isn't one hundred percent. There's a chance 181 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: that Donald's oblique flares up. I mean, He's looked fine 182 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: and he has two more weeks, but you never know. 183 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: I'm not a doctor. But if this is like a 184 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: super low scoring game, and I mean, look, the Seahawks 185 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: all year have been scoring on defense, special teams, you know, 186 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: which could bring like Shaheed into it. I mean, if 187 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: you go back to that Rams Seahawks Week sixteen game, 188 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: which looking back, is probably the most important game of 189 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 1: the season. They that enabled them to win the division, 190 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: that comeback get the one seed. It sent the Rams 191 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: all around the country, and then having to come to 192 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: Seattle and Seattle gott to buy and then you know 193 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: a blowout win got the Stay Battle. 194 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 2: Seattle hasn't lost a game since the middle of November. 195 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, but that, I mean that game was so huge 196 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: for them. But you could argue in that game, I mean, 197 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: there was too many points you would you would probably 198 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: give it to Darnold. I mean, really the V if 199 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: that game was the Super Bowl, there was a case 200 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: that it that it was Kuka who had twelve catches 201 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: for two hundred and fifty yards, But really the MVP 202 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: of the game was Shaheed for that punt return that 203 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: flipped the game. So guess if this is a really 204 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: low scoring game and like scheheedas a punt big punt return. 205 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: But I could see this being one where a defensive 206 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: player maybe now picking who it is, good luck put 207 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: a put a blindfold on a bunch of defenders. I mean, 208 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: look like Malcolm Smith and Dexter Jackson have won. 209 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, isn't Seattle's defense kind of built 210 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 2: like that? Like it's not like there's Von Miller and 211 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: Aaron Donald, they kind of a group. 212 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean even Warres, he's the guys making a 213 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: ton of plays. So but yeah, there's it's just there's 214 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: a lot of players all over it, but it's usually 215 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: like who we get a random pick six and that's 216 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: so random, but I you know, most likely it's gonna 217 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: be the quarterback. The one except the one exception over 218 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: the past twenty years is when there is a receiver 219 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: who just dominates the box score and there's not much 220 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: other scoring. Right, So like a twenty one, say the 221 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: Seahawks win twenty one thirteen, JSN has eight catches for 222 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty eight yards and two touchdowns, and 223 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: you know the Seahawks had another rushing touchdown. You know, 224 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: then you're probably gonna give it the JSN. Like that's 225 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: been the trend with some of these other receivers who 226 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: have won it, and Jaysen certainly fits that profile, right 227 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: you He's a target monster. He's had huge games where 228 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: he's you know, you have a bunch of other guys 229 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: who have one or two catches. She he might catch 230 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: a bomb, you know, you throw it to some of 231 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: your tight ends, and I mean. 232 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,599 Speaker 2: She dominated in the In the NFC Championship game, he 233 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 2: had catches that didn't even count. The one credible. 234 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, his hands are ridiculous. Some of the one handed 235 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: catches that he has are insane. I mean watching him 236 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: vers Puka is just awesome, sick, but I am so 237 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,079 Speaker 1: curious to see I mean, like this, I could talk 238 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: about this stuff all day, but schematically, what's gonna end 239 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: up deciding a lot of this and a lot of 240 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: the player props is how these defensive coordinators and coaches 241 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: decide to approach this game and additionally the adjustments they 242 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: make within the game. So if this was Belichick, and 243 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 1: obviously this Patriot it's coaching staff has a lot of 244 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: ties to Belichick. His MO was, you know, take away 245 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: your strong arm right, make you play left handed. So 246 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: I know what Belichick would do. He would he would 247 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: probably have you know, Christian Gonzales man up the other receiver, 248 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: not JSN, and then have your other corners on JSN 249 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: with a safety over top bracketing him the entire game, 250 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: and you basically double double team. JSN gets a little 251 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 1: more complicated if they're able to move into the slot more, 252 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: which maybe they will, But that's what Belichick would do, 253 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: he would say, and I think I would do that too. 254 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 1: JSN is not beating me, right, So like my Rundy's 255 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 1: really good and my run Dy went healthy has been 256 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: really good all year. No one's been able to run 257 00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 1: on the Patriots. They have good corners, but I'm saying 258 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 1: jas N is not beating me. He's getting bracketed as 259 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: much as humanly possible. And if you want to throw 260 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: the cup, if you want to throw the Shaheed and 261 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: barn are fine, but I would trust my other corners 262 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: on them, man them up, take away Jsn. So if 263 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: that's if that occurs, then you know Jasn is gonna 264 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: be used more as a decoy and just not have 265 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: as many opportunities. So Number one, how do the Patriots 266 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: approach that? Do they put their best corner on him 267 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 1: and Gonzales, who you know, I believe led the league 268 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: in yards per reception or yards per snap this year. 269 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: Do they trust him he's shut down some big name 270 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: receivers before. Or do they say we're going to bracket 271 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: them with a safety at another corner. That's super interesting 272 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: and then the Seahawks are going to counter, right, They're 273 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: probably gonna move Jasn around. Do they have them coming 274 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: out of the back of the more put him in 275 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: the slot more so that that type of stuff. You know, 276 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: with these staffs, they are in two weeks to think 277 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 1: about it. No one really knows, but that's usually what 278 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: goes a long way in determining. I mean, you go 279 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 1: back to that Rams Patriots super Bowl, that game plan 280 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: that the Patriots came up with defensively with the five 281 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: man fronts, that just threw the Rams for a loop 282 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: and they had no idea what to do. Things like that, 283 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: I give McDonald is a mad scientist. He what is 284 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: he going to come up with? What is McDaniel's going 285 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: to come up with? Is all super interesting and no 286 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: one really knows the answers. But that's probably in these 287 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: high leverage games. Also, this is when you switch everything up, 288 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: like this the ultimate high leverage game. Right, you know 289 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: that the other team knows your tendencies, they know where 290 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: you're strong, where you're weak, what you like to do. 291 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: So this is the time where you completely change up. 292 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: But you don't want to change up too much, right 293 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: and go away from That's what McDonald's had happened in 294 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: that Thursday night game, Like you tried to change up 295 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: some things on a short week, and so you don't 296 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: want to go away from who you are, but you 297 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: do have to throw in some curveballs, and sometimes team 298 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: will throw in some major card balls that end up 299 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: deciding the game. That's that's the stuff that I love, 300 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: but obviously makes it makes it more difficult to bet 301 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 1: because you're just you're not going to be able to 302 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: use as much of the data and the tendencies that 303 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: you're and you know, schematic tendencies that you can during 304 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: a regular season game or even a wild card game. 305 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: But that's what makes the Super Bowl so fun to me. 306 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 2: Well, I like Seattle minus four and a half a lot, 307 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 2: but the one thing that gives me pause is the 308 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 2: coaching for New England is elite. And Sean Payton said 309 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 2: it when he went forward on that fourth down, he said, 310 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 2: we got the look we want, but when we snapped it, 311 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 2: they ran a completely different play. Who does that sound 312 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 2: like Bill? Who, like you just said, the schematic who 313 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 2: was a major part of the actual implementation of the 314 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 2: schemes in the two thousands, Mike freaking Vrable, right, So 315 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 2: you know, I think sometimes we look at him and 316 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 2: he's just big massive alpha like a Jim Harbaugh. I 317 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 2: think he's a lot smarter and he gets credit for 318 00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 2: and I you can chat GPT me on this, and 319 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 2: I could be wrong, but I don't think any offensive 320 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 2: coordinator and I don't mean head coach, I mean an 321 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 2: offensive coordinator that's calling the plays, has game plan more 322 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 2: playoff games now super Bowls than Josh McDaniels and the 323 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 2: advantage Now. I think Mike is elite and he's Shanahan 324 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 2: Andy Reid, but he's that version of defense and like 325 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 2: if they bring, you know, the type game plan that 326 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 2: he had against Let's a couple of years ago when 327 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: they played like the forty nine ers and he just 328 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 2: made Purty look like I mean completely over has had 329 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 2: a young player. He can make young players. Drake may 330 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 2: is more talented than Brock, but he can just turn 331 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 2: young you know players into mush and get them seeing ghosts. 332 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 2: I mean, there's a prop that any quarterback to throw 333 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 2: two interceptions. I got almost two to one, A pick 334 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,640 Speaker 2: six is plus sixty is almost seven to one. So 335 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 2: it's like Mike McDonald, if you tell me that he 336 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 2: just has this incredible game plan because he has the 337 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 2: pieces to deal with like very people kind of needs 338 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 2: the game. I feel like to be ugly to give 339 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 2: his team a chance, like I think Patriot fans would 340 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 2: be the first to acknowledge, like, of all their Super 341 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 2: Bowl teams in the last like twenty years, this is 342 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,240 Speaker 2: probably the least talented, Like like it's gonna be it's 343 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 2: theory more talented in a couple of years. If Donald's 344 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 2: gonna play like he just did the other night, Like 345 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 2: this team is really talented. I mean defense is completely loaded. Jsn' 346 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,239 Speaker 2: is an elite player. They just drafted a guard who 347 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: you know has got a chance to be like an 348 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 2: eight time pro bowler, you know, I mean Kenneth Walker's 349 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 2: been really good. Uh and and again Donald, like he's 350 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 2: played pretty well for two years. Like there's no he's 351 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 2: been like a top ten quarterback. No one can even 352 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 2: argue that. So to me, if you like Seattle, you 353 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 2: almost just gotta I would ride Donald to win the 354 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 2: MVP some some props like of their defense to cause interceptions, 355 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 2: maybe a pick six, Like that's the way I'm going. 356 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:53,919 Speaker 2: But I get back to that Sean Payton quote of 357 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,159 Speaker 2: like we saw what we wanted and then it wasn't that. 358 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 2: It's like, well, yeah, no shit, Sewan, this is the 359 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 2: fucking answer Championship game, and you know, what would you do? 360 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 2: And it's almost like he sounded shocked because I think 361 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,920 Speaker 2: he doesn't view I don't want to say it was 362 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,120 Speaker 2: a shot at Rabel, but I don't think they took him. 363 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 2: I don't think he would have said that if it 364 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 2: was Bill, because he would have assumed that. But I 365 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 2: don't think you assumed that with Mike. It's like, oh, 366 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 2: they got good players, Milton Williams back, They're just tough. 367 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,360 Speaker 2: He's you know, like they wore a couple of years ago, 368 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 2: remember like Bills last year. Then they win four games, 369 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 2: but they were pretty good statistically on defense, especially against 370 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 2: the run. 371 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 1: Yep. 372 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 2: So it's like I I think Mike is like the 373 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 2: double whammy. He's he's the leader toughness, like the Tomlin Harbaugh, 374 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 2: but he the scheme stuff in his back pocket. I mean, 375 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 2: what's this the young coordinator that filled in for the 376 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 2: for Williams that got sick, Like Mike has a heavy 377 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 2: hand on that defensive scheme. 378 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. By the way, you keep saying, Mike, you gotta 379 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: clarify it's. 380 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 2: Throwing Braby because I think the coaches. McDonald is viewed 381 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 2: as like the wiz kid the I mean, I had 382 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 2: a buddy on the Raven staff a couple of years ago, 383 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 2: they called him like the defensesive genius, like the Wizard, 384 00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 2: where Rabel's viewed more as the tough guy. But I 385 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 2: think Rabel is much closer to Mike and Mike McDonald's personality. 386 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 2: It's weird, like when you see him talk, he doesn't 387 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 2: come off like some crazy defensive guy. Like you watch Fangio, 388 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 2: You're like, that's a fucking curmudgeon defensive guy. You watch McDonald, 389 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 2: you're like, seems like pretty normal, you know, which he 390 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 2: clearly must not be. Where Rabel. Rabel's kind of got 391 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 2: the feel of much more of a defensive guy. 392 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I grew up in Philly, so I 393 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 1: was used to like who was Who's the original? Like 394 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: Buddy Ryan? 395 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, uh, like the ditcase, the Buddy Ryan's the fangs. 396 00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 2: They're just angry, you know, Bill Belichick. It's why Belichick 397 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 2: and Polliyon hate each other. They're the same guy. They're 398 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 2: just angry. 399 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: I think Rabel is super This is my by the way, 400 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: my Rabel impression all game just sits hand on his knees, 401 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 1: looks like he's got to take a dump, rolls his eyes. 402 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 1: But he is super underrated in in game stuff. There 403 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: are like six or seven things that he's done as 404 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 1: a head coach dating back to the Titans that most 405 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: almost all coaches wouldn't do that get his team little edges. 406 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: For example, last week there was the Broncos had the 407 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: ball with two thirty to go down three before before 408 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 1: Stid him through that interception that basically ended the game. 409 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 1: He the Broncos subbed off. I don't think the announcers 410 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:43,680 Speaker 1: caught this, but the Broncos they didn't catch something. Yeah, 411 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:48,160 Speaker 1: they they subbed off a receiver which they shouldn't have done. 412 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 1: And then you vrabel sent got into defenses on the 413 00:21:55,720 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 1: sidelines and instructed his subbed out his defensive lineman. If 414 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,199 Speaker 1: you go back and watch, he has a defensive lineman 415 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: off from the and they have to wait to sub 416 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 1: and it bled like twenty four seconds off the clock, 417 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: which were huge at that time. Obviously it did ended 418 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 1: up mattering, but he knows. 419 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 2: The how many coaches do that? You think, what's that? 420 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 2: How many coaches do that? That move right there? 421 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: Not many, but there there. He knows the rule book. 422 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: That was one of Belichick's biggest strengths, and he would 423 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 1: spend they he would find like little loopholes to use 424 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: in like the playoffs. There was that game against the 425 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: Ravens where Harball got really mad with the motion, but 426 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 1: he knew the he knows the rule book. He got 427 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: that from Belichick, I think, and like knows time management, 428 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 1: clock management, so those little edges he's really good at 429 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,640 Speaker 1: as far as the game is concerned. Some interesting trends 430 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 1: which are interesting, but you know, it doesn't mean anything 431 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 1: for one game. But dating back to Super Bowl thirty 432 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: thirty years ago, there have been sixteen Super Bowls with 433 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: a spread of four and a half. For more, underdog 434 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,880 Speaker 1: is twelve two and two against the spread covered seven 435 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: in a row. Interestingly, I one of my biggest bets 436 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: of all time was on the Falcons plus four and 437 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: a half. But it closed three. It doesn't count, but 438 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 1: I lost. That's that's a twenty eight three game. You 439 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: mentioned that being one of the most famous score that game. 440 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 1: I lost the under and the Falcons plus four and 441 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: a half, one of my my big one of the 442 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 1: start of this day, my biggest bets ever, one of 443 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: the most painful bet and then became like the most 444 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: famous game that I got to hear about forever. But 445 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: the Patriots scored, they won by six. 446 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 2: I think it was they scored over time. 447 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:43,719 Speaker 1: They scored, they got the won the coin toss, and 448 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 1: I knew I think it was thirty seven thirty one 449 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 1: or thirty four twenty eight, thirty four twenty eight. The 450 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: Falcons didn't score after being of twenty eight three. So 451 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: underdogs have been really good in the Super Bowl above 452 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 1: a field goal. I you know, the thing is that 453 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: I've struggled to remember a team like the Patriots where 454 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: I still don't feel that confident in my rating for 455 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: them because the you know we've had, I mean, number one, 456 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 1: they've had the easiest regular season schedule of the past 457 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: twenty five years, and that's just based on you know, 458 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: looking at opposing team record, strength of teams, you throw 459 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: on all the backups they faced. It's even easier than that. 460 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: So like during the regular season, we didn't get a 461 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: great we didn't got many data points against number one 462 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 1: real quarterbacks and number two real defenses, Like they didn't 463 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: face the top ten defense in my eyes the entire 464 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 1: regular season. Now they go into the playoffs, they face 465 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 1: some good defenses. And May has struggled, but he hasn't 466 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 1: to do much because the offenses they've faced have been compromised. 467 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 1: And then they get the ACE Championship game against a 468 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: backup quarterback, and you get the Texans with all their 469 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: injuries and their offensive line injuries and Stroud just being a disaster. 470 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: Herbert was a disaster and their offensive line wasn't a 471 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: full strength. So still, like the Act, the number of 472 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 1: like real data points against a real team are lacking. 473 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:11,640 Speaker 2: Now. 474 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 1: You do have to give them credit for like blowing 475 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: out of the teams during the regular season. But the 476 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: thing that I worry about most with the Patriots is 477 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: because I do kind of like the under here. I 478 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,159 Speaker 1: think this will be a lower scoring game. I do 479 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: think both teams are gonna come out and these and 480 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: Super Bowls historically have started off really slow. And I 481 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: used to be a total of forty five and a 482 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 1: half forty six of where it's at now. Used to 483 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: be able to get like ten under ten. I would 484 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: always play under ten under ten and a half in 485 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: the first quarter. It hit for years, but now they 486 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 1: books are keen to it. I think the first quarter 487 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: total is like eight and a half, But if you 488 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 1: go back historically, I think the first quarters of average 489 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 1: like six or seven points over a long stretch. There 490 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: are so many that just are three nothings zero zero 491 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 1: seven zero. So I think you know you have Drake 492 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 1: May who had fumble issues, You've had Sam Darnold was 493 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 1: a turnover issues in the past. Both teams, I think 494 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,120 Speaker 1: trust their defenses, so I could see both coming out 495 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: and just feeling the game out, not wanting to make 496 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: a mistake right, and then it could potentially open up more, 497 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 1: you know, and if one of these teams has to 498 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 1: play from way behind, that's when I would worry more 499 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 1: about turnovers. But I do think this could start slow, 500 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: and I think this will be like a field position battle. 501 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,880 Speaker 1: I think both defensive staffs will have a really good 502 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 1: game plan. And I do the big my biggest concern 503 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: for the Patriots, So like what I do trust for 504 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 1: both of these teams. Run defenses are very good. I 505 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 1: mentioned before the Patriots at full strength, their run defense 506 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 1: is legit. They had a little down tick late in 507 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: the season when Milton Williams was hurt Tonga their nose tackle, 508 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,439 Speaker 1: they had linebacker injuries, but when they've been at full strength, 509 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 1: they've been a lead against the run and throughout the 510 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: play Milton Williams. 511 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,640 Speaker 2: Remember they got like, damn they gave him twenty four 512 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 2: million dollars a year. I mean he's been really good 513 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 2: for him when he's been on the field. 514 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: Yes, Yeah, he's been a difference maker. And the Seahawks 515 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 1: run defense is historically good. So I don't think either 516 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 1: team's gonna have much success running the ball. So then 517 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: it's gonna come down to Donald. So I think there's 518 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: gonna be some known passing situations to the Patriots Blitz. 519 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 1: They've been blitzing at like forty forty five percent, really 520 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 1: high over past four games, way higher than they have 521 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 1: all regular season. Now you were playing in the playoffs, 522 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 1: you know, backup quarterback the Chargers ridiculous horrible offensive line. 523 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: The Texans, you know, Shroud struggles against the Blitz, they 524 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: had offensive line injuries. Do they do that here? Donald's 525 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 1: been pretty good against the Blitz. I don't know how 526 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: do they handle JSN. But this is gonna come down 527 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: to each quarterback because I don't think either running game 528 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: is going to consistently move the ball. And what my 529 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: biggest concern for the Patriots is their offensive line and 530 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: how it will hold up against the Seahawk defense. And 531 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: then may going up against whatever McDonald has cooked up. 532 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: But whenever the Patriots have faced a defensive line that 533 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: can get pressure without blitz and they've struggled, especially in 534 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 1: the left side. And is that when the turnovers come, 535 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: that's when seat the Seahawks can start smelling blood. And 536 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: that that's my biggest concern for the Patriots is how 537 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 1: does their offensive line hold up and then can can 538 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: may avoid mistakes, but if the Patriots can can get 539 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: out to a lead, you know, and then use their 540 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 1: different They stunt a lot, which is given the Seattle 541 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: offensive line some issues this year. But if they can, 542 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: like time, some blitzes, you know, force, I would just 543 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: take jess n Away, force darnaldt some throws. I think 544 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: that's their path in a lower scoring game. One other 545 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 1: thing I'll mention is special teams big advantage for Seattle, 546 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: New England. Special teams aren't bad. They're not elite, you know, 547 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: you have Patriots have an elite punt returner in Jones. 548 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: Their punter's been out hit a bad game last week, 549 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: but it's Barrenger has been been decent school or they 550 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: have some good cover guys. But the Seawks special teams 551 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: is probably the best in the league. We saw mentioned 552 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: that Rams game. We know all year they've had special 553 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: teams plays that have swung games, so that could be 554 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: the difference in if it's a competitive game. Just the 555 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: reliability and playmaking of Seattle Special teams. So I'll stop 556 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 1: rambling for now. Those are some of my thoughts. 557 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 2: Today's show is brought to you by a presenting sponsor, 558 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 2: hard Rock Bet, Florida's sportsbook.

Drake May's got a bunch of turnovers this playoff. 596 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 2: Darnold led the league during the season. You got two 597 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 2: defenses that are just gonna be throwing fucking curveballs left 598 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 2: and right, especially early in the game. And then if 599 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 2: someone's down, you just got to force it to me 600 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,959 Speaker 2: that that that one's that one's tasty. I'm definitely taking that. 601 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 2: A couple of years ago, famously on this podcast, you 602 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 2: had a Niners Chiefs overtime what was it ten to 603 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 2: one just for. 604 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 1: The but the bet I really wanted to win was 605 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: double overtime, one hundred to one, and it was one second, 606 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: one second away. If the play clock. I will never 607 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 1: forget this. I was going to room about the play 608 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 1: clock was set one second below the game clock, and 609 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: I'm convinced that if it was reversed, the Chiefs would 610 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 1: have let it run down and uh gone to the 611 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 1: second overtime and Ryan will play the I believe that. 612 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 2: In a context you bet one hundred on one hundred 613 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 2: to one that pays ten k. 614 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and yeah it was one second away. That was 615 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: But yeah, overtime was nice, but the double overtime would 616 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: have been awesome. The I believe if it goes this 617 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 1: is never gonna happen though, But in triple overtime, I 618 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 1: think if it goes a triple done, then they kick 619 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: off again like starts over. I don't know, I doubt 620 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: will ever see that. So yeah, I don't mind that problem. 621 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: My only concern would be May is May's turnovers fumbles, 622 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: because that's what's what's plagued him in the playoffs. Like 623 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 1: are his turnovers the strip variety? 624 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 2: But yeah, because getting fucking warked. 625 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's how the Patriots managed that. It's gonna be 626 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: really interesting. I do think one of the avenues to 627 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: do so. One of my favorite props are Hunter Henry 628 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: related I've played in like over catches, over receiving yards, 629 00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: over longest catch over seventeen and a half yards up 630 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: the seat. Like the Seahawks. By design, they're one of 631 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: the worst defense in the league against tight ends, and 632 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,360 Speaker 1: part of that's by design. You know, they kind of 633 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: funnel things to tight on. This could change. McDonald could say, like, look, 634 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: we're taking away enery, like we don't think their receivers 635 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 1: can beat us. Maybe they play more man than zone. 636 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: They they switched up last week, play a little bit 637 00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 1: more man than usual. But they might so he might 638 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: maybe focus more. But the Seahawks defense, they allow you 639 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,320 Speaker 1: to throw short passes, throw to the tight ends because 640 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: they want They're they're making you drive the field. Against 641 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: that elite defense, it's going to stop the run, getting 642 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: a third and long get pressure can cover the receivers. 643 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 1: They want to take away the explosive play, force you 644 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 1: to go all the way down the field on a 645 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 1: you know, thirteen to fourteen play drive and score on 646 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 1: that defense. And so tight ends have had huge days. 647 00:34:56,040 --> 00:35:00,320 Speaker 1: And Hunter Enry the last year against this Seahawks defense 648 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: is McDonald defense. I wasn't his McDonald didn't have all 649 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: of his pieces yet, but he had, but I think 650 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: nine catches for one hundred and eight yards or something 651 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:10,480 Speaker 1: in the regular season. So I think that the one 652 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,359 Speaker 1: of the ways that you you know, number one May 653 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 1: is going to be under fire, under pressure, so that 654 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 1: safety valve. I think there's gonna be more design throws 655 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 1: for Henry. The Siaoks also don't blitz a ton, so 656 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,799 Speaker 1: you don't need, you know, the protect in there, the 657 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: protection in there as much. So I think Henry will 658 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,359 Speaker 1: have a pretty big day and he'll have a big, big, 659 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: long catch up the seam at one point. So I 660 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 1: like some some Henry props, But UH be curious to 661 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:43,320 Speaker 1: see what McDaniel does to get May going avoid that pressure. 662 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,359 Speaker 1: What does the screen game look like? But I think 663 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 1: the tight ends are gonna because I just I don't 664 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:56,279 Speaker 1: know if the Patriots receivers can consistently get separation on 665 00:35:56,560 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: a down by down basis against this Seattle secondary. This 666 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,239 Speaker 1: isn't Nikkoua and Adams out there. 667 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 2: Well, Booty was one because they're gonna have to take 668 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 2: some shots. It's kind of how they've operated right offensively. 669 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 2: And he's a he's a good deep ball thrower. 670 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 1: I know. 671 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,360 Speaker 2: I don't hold the Denver game against him. When it 672 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 2: was fucking he threw one out route there was that 673 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 2: looked like you know, Trey Lance or something, and then 674 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 2: they showed the behind view and the wind. It looked 675 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 2: like ninety miles an hour, snow going everywhere. It's like 676 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 2: you can't complete anything. I don't know if you saw 677 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 2: that clip where he looks at Josh, He's like, this 678 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 2: is impossible. Yeah, he's he's been complaining. He's just saying, like, 679 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 2: what are we supposed to do? That game was a joke, 680 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 2: but you know, I do think you know, he's clearly 681 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 2: he force fed him the ball. It didn't work in 682 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 2: that game with Booty against Denver. He had six touchdowns 683 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 2: this year. I listen, I put some of Pukah's production 684 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,759 Speaker 2: against Seattle. Feels like kind of shorter routes that he's 685 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,759 Speaker 2: taken after the catch. But I mean they they were 686 00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 2: going after him with those two guys, like you said, 687 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 2: I mean, they're better than Booty. He clearly feels like 688 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 2: Drake likes him and does Patriots like him? And plus 689 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 2: three twenty five. I looked on hard Rock bet today. 690 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 2: It's pretty good odds for a guy that you know 691 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 2: they're going to target down the field. Well, the works 692 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 2: or not is yet to be seen. 693 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that's that's a matchup to watch. Seattle's 694 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,959 Speaker 1: you know, secondary not letting up explosives against Drake May, who, 695 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 1: no question as one of the best deep balls in 696 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: the NFL pinpoint accuracy, throws a beautiful deep ball, and 697 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 1: he's gonna take I mean all year, he will take 698 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 1: his shots. Now, he got a little gun shy, and 699 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 1: I think that the Patriots did that by design last 700 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: week against you know, there was the weather, but even 701 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:50,280 Speaker 1: early I think they were like, look, we're playing jarrets 702 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 1: that we're not losing this game. Like he saw some 703 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 1: of the the third downs where they rolled him out 704 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,399 Speaker 1: and he just like threw it away runs on third 705 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,760 Speaker 1: and long. That's not gonna be the case here unless 706 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,359 Speaker 1: this is just like a you know, ten to seven 707 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,919 Speaker 1: game in the third or fourth quarter. So he's gonna 708 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: take his shots here, and Booty is the most likely 709 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:15,320 Speaker 1: target to hit those big passes. So yeah, that I 710 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 1: can see him having one or two big plays that 711 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 1: end up in the end zone, because mate, he's gonna have. 712 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: They're not gonna be able to consistently throw the ball, 713 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,799 Speaker 1: at least I don't think so consistently. Just move the 714 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 1: chains by throwing short to intermediate passes against this defense 715 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 1: with their receivers, they're gonna have to pick up enough 716 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 1: plays of the chunk variety to just avoid having to 717 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: gruelingly go down the field against the Seattle defense. So yeah, 718 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 1: Booty would definitely be the best candidate for that, So 719 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: I don't mind that. Look, I also one crack one 720 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: that I don't know. I've only seen it at one 721 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:03,719 Speaker 1: book out there. It'll be more widely available. I like 722 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 1: this is way in the weeds, but I like Seattle 723 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:13,520 Speaker 1: over four and a half players to have a rush attempt. 724 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: So you're gonna have Kenneth Walker, Sam Polani their backup 725 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,399 Speaker 1: will get a carry. Darnold will have at least one 726 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 1: or he should why not, but you know he usually 727 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: has a couple. You can have a need to. I 728 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,400 Speaker 1: think they're gonna get one of their receivers. This is 729 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 1: when you get creative. So like I imagine, Shaheed will 730 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 1: probably get an end a round or some type of carry, 731 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: and then you're gonna have a j Barner will most 732 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 1: likely be doing their their sneaks. And this is you 733 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 1: don't not use him here in the Super Bowl when 734 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,600 Speaker 1: it's third and one, fourth and one, you're they use 735 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:54,719 Speaker 1: him for the touch push here. So and barn is 736 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 1: a sneaky touchdown bet because of that. Yeah, because if 737 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 1: they're at the one Patriots run, he's been really good. 738 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 1: I imagine Barner will have a chance, and we'll have 739 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: a chance in the passing game too. The Patriots one 740 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: of their weaknesses by far as their linebacker's ability to 741 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 1: their ability to cover in space. So Barner in the 742 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 1: red zone, you never know what the Seattle tight ends 743 00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:25,239 Speaker 1: and a Royal and who's oh they're gonna be throwing to. 744 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: But Barner I think you know all year he's been 745 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: one of Donald's favorite red zone targets and then he 746 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 1: also could get in via sneak So I like him 747 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 1: as a as a touchdown. Look, if you're looking for 748 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:42,839 Speaker 1: someone that's not the most obvious guy. 749 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,359 Speaker 2: If I would have told you like three years ago 750 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 2: that going into a super Bowl this team was the 751 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:51,720 Speaker 2: number one seed, they just took out their two rivals 752 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 2: and Sam Donald is the heavy favorite to be the 753 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 2: Super Bowl MVP, how do people would have believed me? 754 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:01,799 Speaker 1: Yeah? I would have laughed in your face. I mean, 755 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: think about saying two three years ago, Sam Donald will 756 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 1: be the MVP favorite in the Super Bowl against the Patriots. Like, 757 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 1: think about where the Patriots were a couple of years ago. 758 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:17,440 Speaker 1: Like this is a crazy, crazy super Bowl. I know 759 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:21,319 Speaker 1: it's the Patriots, but like they were, and we get 760 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 1: the Patriots again. But it's basically been like the Chiefs, 761 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:26,840 Speaker 1: and we have had a lot of the Chiefs and 762 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 1: Eagles and forty nine ers, Like this is a pretty 763 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: shocking super Bowl result with Sam Donald and how far 764 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 1: he's come now, A lot of that's on the defense, 765 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 1: but he's certainly played well and last week, I mean 766 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 1: he went throw for throw with Donald. Because the Rams 767 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:56,160 Speaker 1: offense clearly has is the kryptonite for Seattle's defense, and 768 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 1: usually like it doesn't sometimes when you just have elite, 769 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: elite receivers, you know, Hall of Fame receivers, and a 770 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame quarterback and a you know, elite play caller, 771 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 1: there's no defense for that, right, Like if you're just 772 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 1: making throw elite throws and guys you can't you can't 773 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:16,280 Speaker 1: cover Nikoua and Adams and they're gonna make contested catches. 774 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 1: Can may get on a hot streak like that, maybe, 775 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 1: but he doesn't have the offensive line that the Rams do, 776 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 1: and he doesn't have the receivers, and he's nowhere close 777 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: to his experienced as Stafford. So it's hard to see 778 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:38,880 Speaker 1: the Patriots doing what the Rams did last week. So 779 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:42,399 Speaker 1: the Patriots that have to win this game, I would 780 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:47,280 Speaker 1: say twenty to seventeen. That has to be there. 781 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 2: Are you taking the Pats and the Boys? 782 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. I thought like three and a half 783 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 1: was fair. I mean that was the look aheadline. It's 784 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 1: not the most efficient line. Like if this got the six, 785 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:01,880 Speaker 1: I don't think. Well it got to like five, I 786 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 1: was waiting. I definitely would have bet the Pats, but 787 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:07,400 Speaker 1: you know, it got to it was at three and 788 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 1: a half. The Patriots won. They didn't have to do anything. So, 789 00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,520 Speaker 1: like I didn't take too much from that game last 790 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 1: week in the Blizzard and the Seahawks, It's not like 791 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 1: I upgraded them a ton. I mean that was a 792 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,919 Speaker 1: coin flip game. Yeah, I mean they were out game 793 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,239 Speaker 1: four eighty to three ninety. They gave up eight point 794 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:26,000 Speaker 1: three yards per play, only average six Like the Rams 795 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:27,839 Speaker 1: arguably were better on the play by places. They muffed 796 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 1: the punt, I got stopped on fourth down, and they 797 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:33,839 Speaker 1: sold a chance to win it. Their special teams really 798 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:40,400 Speaker 1: let them down. And so yeah, it's not like I 799 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 1: upgraded the Seahawks a ton from that game, so I thought, 800 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 1: like three and a half will be fair. But again, 801 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:49,759 Speaker 1: I just don't have that much confidence in that where 802 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:53,080 Speaker 1: I rate the Patriots because, like the the amount of 803 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 1: real data points I have with this team is so small, 804 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 1: and I do have that concern that I know they're 805 00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:58,759 Speaker 1: not gonna be able to run it, or at least 806 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 1: I g I feel strongly that they won't be able to. 807 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 1: And then I don't know how the receivers are going 808 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: to get separation consistently. And then I don't know how 809 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:11,319 Speaker 1: May is not going to be pressured consistently on known 810 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 1: passing downs and give McDonald with two weeks to prepare. 811 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,439 Speaker 1: So it's that all leads me to believe it's gonna 812 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:20,879 Speaker 1: be a tough sledding for the Patriots offense. Now can 813 00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: their defense? I think their defense can keep them in 814 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 1: this game, right two weeks to prepare for this staff, 815 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna just take away Jess and at 816 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 1: least I think that's what they're gonna do. Their Rundy's good. 817 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 1: I think that's gonna make it tough. Their stunts, their 818 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,840 Speaker 1: blitz packages can maybe give Donald some issues. So I 819 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 1: think their defense keeping them. So my my strongest play 820 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: is probably under but as a result of I think 821 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 1: it's lower scoring than I would lean towards the dog 822 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,759 Speaker 1: a bit more. But I also worried about special teams because 823 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 1: that's that could swing it in Seattle's favor too. But 824 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 1: it's just crazy that the Patriots are here and it's like, 825 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:02,239 Speaker 1: what complete team do they play? 826 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,319 Speaker 2: If they were to pull off this upset and win, 827 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,640 Speaker 2: I think Bill's fans wouldn't even would be just they 828 00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 2: might just quit football. It'd be tough that that that one. 829 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:12,560 Speaker 2: I think it would hurt them the most. 830 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 1: You know, it would hurt Raidings fans at the Seahawks 831 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,720 Speaker 1: win mc donald, it's the one that got away. 832 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 2: Do you think that is a little I was watching 833 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 2: some of the Mintor press conference today. He's not I 834 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 2: wouldn't say, a big press conference guy. Not like he's 835 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:31,480 Speaker 2: dumb talking, But there's just I don't know, it's just yeah, 836 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 2: it's not I'm not judging him on that moment. But 837 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:37,360 Speaker 2: Bowls last year, it's like, God, if they could do 838 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 2: that over again, they just would have fired him and 839 00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,320 Speaker 2: got with Liam. Do you think looking back they regret, 840 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:44,920 Speaker 2: like they were just in the AFC Championship game. But 841 00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 2: if they had to do over, would they have just 842 00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,920 Speaker 2: fired John Horridball right then and hired Mike McDonald. 843 00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:54,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. Uh yeah, it's it's it's unfortunate. 844 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 2: Mintor could be like the light version of him. He's 845 00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 2: clearly pretty good. 846 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Mintor was a good high with McDonald 847 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:04,080 Speaker 1: obviously would have been the ideal choice. And that's what 848 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:10,719 Speaker 1: we've seen recently, like teams that are aggressive. I mean, 849 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:14,880 Speaker 1: look at these two teams right like they were. It 850 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 1: was we brought in Vrabel and we got rid of 851 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:25,239 Speaker 1: Mayo right away. It was a disaster. Seahawks move on 852 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: from Gino Smith and Pete Carroll and go get McDonald. 853 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 1: Like a lot of people were shocked by. I thought 854 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 1: it was the wrong move. But the whole NFL season 855 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:42,239 Speaker 1: was about coaching. The Jags rise with Liam Cohen and 856 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 1: everywhere Liam Cohen's gone, team's gotten better. And then the 857 00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 1: Bucks their their offensive decline after Liam Cohen left, the 858 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:55,840 Speaker 1: Bears and Ben Johnson's impact and what he did, and 859 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 1: then you have the Lions drop off after Ben Johnson left. 860 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 1: So like the co coaching matters, coordinators matter, and you 861 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:09,440 Speaker 1: can drastically change the direction of your franchise with the 862 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 1: right hire or you know, poison it for years to 863 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:17,920 Speaker 1: come with the wrong one, especially if you have an 864 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 1: ownership group that isn't going to be aggressive and move 865 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 1: on quickly. So yeah, I wish the Ravens have McDonald, 866 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 1: but clearly the Seahawks benefited immensely and they're going to 867 00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 1: be a problem for years to come with him at 868 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 1: the home. 869 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, they really are all right, fellas. Let's be real. 870 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,279 Speaker 2: Buying men's jewelry used to be a nightmare.

Well, Stuckey, huh, bittersweet time. We 895 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 2: just got one game left and you get to gamble 896 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 2: on college basketball, be gambling on golf, and we'll just 897 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:30,879 Speaker 2: try to get through. But it's you know you turn 898 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,560 Speaker 2: on TV at night. It's just I know you love 899 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:37,759 Speaker 2: college truths. There's not it's not no. I mean I 900 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,719 Speaker 2: tried to watch a little like sc was playing, was 901 00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:42,799 Speaker 2: to Iowa or something else. It just didn't do much 902 00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 2: for me. I was like, I'm just gonna watch some 903 00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:46,919 Speaker 2: fucking TV and go to bed. 904 00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:50,280 Speaker 1: I will say, I, you know, I miss there's nothing 905 00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:52,920 Speaker 1: like football. I miss it in the off season, but 906 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:56,480 Speaker 1: I I don't want football in the off season, so 907 00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:58,839 Speaker 1: like I don't get into like I never got into 908 00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:02,000 Speaker 1: any of the other leagues, or like the U football 909 00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 1: is like my it's it's meant to be from August 910 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:09,680 Speaker 1: to the super Bowl. But yeah, TV and weeknights and 911 00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:13,840 Speaker 1: weekends just aren't the same without football. 912 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 2: So gambling on the NBA I was watching the Lakers 913 00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,840 Speaker 2: are now like forty. I'm like that sport. When I 914 00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:25,840 Speaker 2: first really got into gambling, like consistently, probably mid twenty tens, 915 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:28,640 Speaker 2: used to be able to find certain teams, like the 916 00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 2: OKC Thunder with Durant and Russell I used to hammer 917 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,399 Speaker 2: their team overs and there were just some you could ride. 918 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:37,239 Speaker 2: And now the basketball is all over the place with 919 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 2: three point shots, Like I can't even imagine gambling on 920 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:41,879 Speaker 2: this one. You got teams the tank, some teams don't 921 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,400 Speaker 2: even try. The good ones take nights off. It's you 922 00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:46,640 Speaker 2: talk about a fall little sport. I mean, you got 923 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:47,879 Speaker 2: no clue what you're getting night tonight. 924 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:51,320 Speaker 1: I have no idea how people got the NBA. That's 925 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,680 Speaker 1: not my god, boss, anyone that wins money doing it. 926 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:56,440 Speaker 1: I wouldn't even know where to start. 927 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 2: At least in college basketball. You know, both teams in 928 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:00,960 Speaker 2: theory are gonna try every night, right. 929 00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:07,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, there's no like load management and no and tanking. 930 00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:10,360 Speaker 1: But but the sport's changing. I mean the sport, like 931 00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:14,440 Speaker 1: college football is definitely changing the top. So like what's 932 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 1: happening in college troble is happening in college basketball. There's 933 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:23,040 Speaker 1: because of nil, because of the portal, the top of 934 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 1: the sport is separating itself from the rest. Now there 935 00:51:28,800 --> 00:51:32,040 Speaker 1: might be there's probably gonna be more parody at the top, right, 936 00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 1: and you're gonna have like in college football, there's you know, 937 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:36,399 Speaker 1: next year, if you ask me right now, like who 938 00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,839 Speaker 1: could win the national title? And there's still so much 939 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:43,319 Speaker 1: to be determined in the portal and recruiting and a 940 00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:46,200 Speaker 1: lot of other things. But I would probably list eight 941 00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:49,120 Speaker 1: to ten teams. Yeah that I wouldn't be shocked. Five 942 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,960 Speaker 1: years ago, you know, it was like two to three 943 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,560 Speaker 1: teams that I would say. So there's more parody at 944 00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 1: the top, more diversity. I mean, look, Indiana just want 945 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:03,760 Speaker 1: a championship, but after that, the drop off is massive 946 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:07,600 Speaker 1: because the money difference, because any player that's worth anything 947 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 1: in these lower conferences is moving up. The coaches too 948 00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:15,239 Speaker 1: are moving up. So like, what's going to happen, I 949 00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:20,840 Speaker 1: think is and it sucks. My first love is March 950 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:22,880 Speaker 1: Madness when I was a little kid in the NCAA tournament. 951 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,600 Speaker 1: There's just gonna be fewer upsets, fewer Cinderella stores. We 952 00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:27,640 Speaker 1: saw that last year. I think that's probably going to 953 00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:31,600 Speaker 1: be a trend and it's just going to be harder 954 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:35,080 Speaker 1: to get Cinderella stores because the gap is growing. I mean, 955 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,120 Speaker 1: if you just look at the top ten, the AP 956 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:44,279 Speaker 1: top ten after Week thirteen, which was this Monday, those 957 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:49,840 Speaker 1: ten teams had thirteen total losses. To put that into perspective, 958 00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 1: you know, two years ago this same time frame, the 959 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:57,680 Speaker 1: top ten had thirty four. The previous record was twenty one, 960 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,120 Speaker 1: so I mean they only had thirty. Like, there's just 961 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:02,160 Speaker 1: not as many upsets. 962 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:03,960 Speaker 2: Well, Arizona hasn't lost. 963 00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 1: Right, Arizona's undefeated. 964 00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 2: Nebraska just lost. 965 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 1: Nebraska just lost to Michigan. Who's you know, a top 966 00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:10,279 Speaker 1: five team. 967 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:15,080 Speaker 2: They have like two they have one loss, yeah, which 968 00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,480 Speaker 2: is unheard of, Like good if you finish the season 969 00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 2: with five or six losses, right. 970 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:26,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, so yeah, it's it's unprecedented. How good the top 971 00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 1: of the sport is. So yeah, there's just fewer upsets. 972 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 1: I'm having to adjust because it's like a different sport 973 00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:35,400 Speaker 1: college football, college basketball. There, it's it's ever changing and 974 00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 1: it's it's a whole different world. But uh, one mid 975 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:41,520 Speaker 1: major that could make a run Saint Louis. I took 976 00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 1: a flyer and then to make the Final four. They're 977 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:45,760 Speaker 1: like a team with shooters all over, very well coached. 978 00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:47,320 Speaker 2: Say that again, you kind of broke out on me. 979 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:48,600 Speaker 2: The team you just listened. 980 00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:51,000 Speaker 1: Saint Louis the Billikins there, they have one loss. They 981 00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:53,399 Speaker 1: lost one game to Stanford on like a crazy buzzer beater. 982 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:55,720 Speaker 1: But they have one of the best coaches in the country. 983 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,200 Speaker 1: They have like five guys who shoot forty percent from three. 984 00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:00,520 Speaker 1: They run beautiful offense. Like their team. I could give 985 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:03,719 Speaker 1: anyone problems that make it. They can't like win it all, 986 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:05,160 Speaker 1: but they could make like a final four. I took 987 00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:07,560 Speaker 1: a flyer and then to make the Final four, and 988 00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:09,279 Speaker 1: then the other storyline with college basketball real quick, it 989 00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 1: is just a freshman this year. The freshmen are outstanding. 990 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 1: My favorite to watch when he's healthy. He's dealt with 991 00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:17,719 Speaker 1: a lot of injury issues. But Darren Peterson out of Kansas, 992 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:19,919 Speaker 1: I took a flyer in Kansas to make the Final Four. 993 00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:21,880 Speaker 1: When he's healthy, he looks. He reminds me of like 994 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:25,200 Speaker 1: Kobe if Kobe went to college. He is one of 995 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:28,440 Speaker 1: the smoothest players that I've seen on the offensive end 996 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 1: in college, especially for a freshman a long time. But 997 00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,160 Speaker 1: the freshman boozer, the bands of Peters, and they might 998 00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:34,680 Speaker 1: be the top three in the draft. Then you might 999 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:36,880 Speaker 1: get you know, Caleb Wilson out of North con The 1000 00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 1: top five guys might be freshmen. Freshmen are dominating. He 1001 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:44,239 Speaker 1: had this kid Waggler from Illinois dropped forty six at 1002 00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:50,160 Speaker 1: Purdue last weekend. Flemings from Houston at forty two last weekend. 1003 00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:52,160 Speaker 1: I mean, there are so many good freshmen. That's another 1004 00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:55,080 Speaker 1: storyline to watch. But yeah, not the same without football. 1005 00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:59,520 Speaker 1: I appreciate you having me on all year. Can't wait 1006 00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:01,279 Speaker 1: to do it again and next year. 1007 00:55:01,320 --> 00:55:05,879 Speaker 2: Brother, Well, enjoy being a dad and you enjoy life 1008 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 2: and We'll just keep on, We'll just keep cryding day 1009 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:09,960 Speaker 2: by day, because that's you know, when you become a dad, 1010 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,200 Speaker 2: that dad life is just one foot in front of 1011 00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:14,360 Speaker 2: I feel like Belichick just onto the next day, on too, 1012 00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:15,000 Speaker 2: the next day. 1013 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:15,880 Speaker 1: We're onto Cincinnati. 1014 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:19,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, Bro, I'll talk to you soon.
