That was That was a great effort, 19 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 2: but it was tough. We're going to get into these games. 20 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,319 Speaker 2: We always pull out eight games. We dig dig into 21 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 2: those a little deeper and then we'll have some comments 22 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 2: on some of the other ones. At the end, it 23 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 2: was a man, it was a short night here. I 24 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 2: can't complain because I've got rhet who's going back and 25 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 2: forth to Indiana and doing big ten games every single week. 26 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 4: A lot of travel there. 27 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 2: I've got Bunk who's done two international trips where he 28 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 2: decided that he needed to come home in between those. 29 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 2: So I'm not going to complain about the early am 30 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,759 Speaker 2: arrival after the afternoon game became the city. But it 31 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 2: was a It was a long day, not only from 32 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 2: a travel standpoint, but a long day for the Chargers. 33 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 2: They lose thirty one to seventeen to the Chiefs, the 34 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 2: rare two score game for the Chargers. You don't see 35 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 2: many of those. Those are like a bigfoot, you know, 36 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:44,479 Speaker 2: it usually comes down. 37 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 4: I was like a game out there. 38 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was weird, but again you had it was 39 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 2: really a one score game down to the very end 40 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 2: till a punt return by the Chiefs by Mikole Hardman 41 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 2: put them in position to make a two score game late. 42 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 2: But there's a lot to get to with this. I 43 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 2: will look at it. I'll look at it from the 44 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 2: Charger side of things, and I'll start just kind of 45 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 2: the tail of two halves. Man, you had an offense 46 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,440 Speaker 2: that was up and down the field in the first half. 47 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 2: Feeling good about it, in the defense was terrible. In 48 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 2: the second half. You had a defense that made some 49 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,640 Speaker 2: I thought some pretty obvious adjustments that needed to be made, 50 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 2: I e. Playing for the man coverage, yeah, and given 51 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: Derwin James a chance to match up well with Travis Kelce. 52 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 2: And then so the defense gets better than offense. Can't 53 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 2: move the ball. They had favorable field position off of 54 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 2: some defensive stops, could not do anything with it. So 55 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 2: just kind of an unconnected game. But I want to 56 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 2: talk about the defense and Buck, I want to get 57 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 2: to you on this one. I'm trying to look at 58 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 2: this thing and try and make sense of it. And 59 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 2: one of the things that's frustrating calling the Charger games 60 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 2: every week is I feel like, man, they get hit 61 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 2: with the right hand a lot. Like when you're going 62 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 2: to play the Miami Dolphins, your attention probably should be 63 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 2: on Tyreek Hill and trying to take him away he 64 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: goes over two hundred yards. When you're playing the Dallas Cowboys, 65 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,239 Speaker 2: you let Ceedee Lamb get loose. Micah Parsons is where 66 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 2: you should focus your attention. Like, Hey, anybody else beats us, 67 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 2: but Michah Parsons has the two big rushes at the 68 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 2: end of the game that end up stealing the game. 69 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 2: Max Crosby, even in a win, I think had two 70 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 2: sacks against him. Justin Jefferson goes for one hundred and 71 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 2: fifty yards, including big plays Like I feel like if 72 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 2: you go into that game yesterday and sky Moore has 73 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty yards. 74 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 4: And he beats you, he beats you. You live with that. 75 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 2: But to come out and play so much his own coverage, 76 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 2: to come out and give free access to Kelsey and 77 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 2: then I mean, I freeze the picture I sent you guys, 78 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 2: some of the screen grabs when you freeze it on 79 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 2: third down, which is when he should be getting attention 80 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: every down he's on the field. But on third down 81 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 2: there's nobody within ten yards of him in the middle 82 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 2: of the field. He's running spot routes. There's no magic 83 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: to it. He's run spot routes. There's nobody assigned to him. 84 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: And I just think, Man, after a game, you get 85 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 2: on the plane and fly home, Buck and you go, 86 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 2: you know what, man, we hey last year in a game, 87 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 2: Derwin James matched up with him, he beat him and 88 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 2: got a touchdown late, and I sleep, I would sleep fine. 89 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 2: You know what we put our best on their best. 90 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: He got us, but to just give free access, that 91 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 2: doesn't make any sense to me. 92 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know it's funny. Right. 93 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 3: So we're in the midst of this period where everyone 94 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 3: is kind of taking shots at Bill Belichick. But the 95 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 3: one thing that we are respect about Belichick is his 96 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 3: ability to make the opponent play left handed. And we've 97 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 3: seen him use basically the pub return coverage where he'll 98 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 3: vice up a marque player to make sure that, hey, 99 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 3: this guy's not in play, he's done any critical downs. 100 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 3: He's the master of double coverage tactics. He will not 101 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 3: if he can control it. He's not going to allow 102 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 3: your best player to have a big day. And a 103 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 3: lot of coaches are reluctant to kind of sell out 104 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 3: or kind of revamp what they normally do to take 105 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 3: that player away. 106 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 4: And I understand, Hey, we're just going to do what 107 00:04:59,040 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 4: we do and. 108 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 3: How that's been successful for some But I guess the 109 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 3: Kansas City the Chiefs to me this year, in particular, 110 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 3: when Travis Kelce is the main event, Gosh, you gotta 111 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 3: let MVS or somebody else beach. You can't let him 112 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 3: have not only have twelve kids, but he can't go 113 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 3: over one hundred yards in the first half. Like, it 114 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 3: has to be something where you try to take away 115 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 3: something to make them uncomfortable, make them go farther down 116 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 3: the place. She don't let them just stop it at 117 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 3: segment A. Make them at least get the B or C. 118 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 2: Let me let me ask you this quick follow up, 119 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 2: why would you not just play two man against that 120 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 2: team and say if they if and challenge Andy Reid 121 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,919 Speaker 2: to be patient with Isaiah Pacheco and say, you know, 122 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 2: if they want to Pacheco to run the ball thirty times, 123 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 2: then we'll take our chances. You know, we're gonna play 124 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 2: two man and we're just gonna say, okay, that's because 125 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,679 Speaker 2: that is like fuck just from a seven on seven 126 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 2: culture standpoint, like that's the best. If your playing team's 127 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: gonna throw the ball, that's the best. That's the best 128 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 2: coverage you can run. 129 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 4: I mean, you can do it. You can do it 130 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 4: all day like and. 131 00:05:58,440 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 5: Simple too. 132 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 2: There's simple hesitation. There's no thinking I've got him, I've 133 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 2: got help. 134 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 4: That's it. That's it. 135 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 2: I've got him, I've got help, that's it. 136 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 3: It should be very very simple, and it should be 137 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 3: a thing that you do. And I remember Todd Bowle 138 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 3: said this when they knocked them off in the Super Bowl. 139 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 4: He said, if Pat. 140 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 3: Mahomes runs four hundred yards, we'll live with But they're 141 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 3: not going to beat just because he runs four hundred 142 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 3: yards because that's not what they want to do. We're 143 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 3: not going to give up the explosives. We're going to 144 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 3: take away their main options. And that's what they did. 145 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 3: And look, the Chargers had the game, therefore him because 146 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 3: the game was even Stephen, but you have to you 147 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 3: cannot allow Travis Kelsey to go be it because no 148 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 3: one else is capable of really have any moster day. 149 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 4: Let somebody else have a monster day. 150 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 1: Well, and I will just say, because you guys covered it, 151 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: I mean that's you know, it seems odd right that year, 152 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: but that it also feels like that's part of the 153 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: philosophy here with the way that Brandon Staley wants to 154 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 1: do things defensively. Right, it was like, okay, well, we're 155 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: not going to completely change what we do based on 156 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: one guy. What we do works and we're going to 157 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: work it and you know, have a plan and work 158 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: the plan, right, But I will say, you know, it 159 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: did force Britney Mahomes and Travis Kelsey's significant other now 160 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: you might know her name, to adjust their new celebratory 161 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: handshake like they had to because of the way that 162 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: Kelsey was working in the first half. They had to 163 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: come up with a new adjustment on the handshakee because 164 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: they were executing it so many times. So they were 165 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: able to adjust in the first half with the celebrations, 166 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: which meant that things were probably going pretty well for 167 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: number eighty seven in Red. I mean, it's just incredible 168 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: the way that they they're able to continue to find, 169 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: you know, that chemistry. I'm trying to think back, like 170 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: if we go back to Brady Gronks. 171 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 2: Kelsey better, it's different, it's different, It's totally I think 172 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 2: it's different. 173 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 3: I think it's different. I would say the difference is 174 00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 3: in my first glance there's more freestyle than more. I 175 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 3: would say, you know, they color outside the lines and yeah, improvisation, 176 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 3: that's true. I felt like it was the Gronk was great, 177 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 3: but I felt like it was playing. It was scripted. 178 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 3: How they by how he got Like with Kansas City, 179 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 3: I think the part of part of the problem and 180 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 3: dealing with him is you just never know where Travis 181 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 3: Kelsey's gonna because I don't even know if his quarterback knows. 182 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 4: But they played all the time. Yeah, so Gronk was 183 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 4: Gronk was different. Though. 184 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 2: Gronk was contested catches and run after catch like you 185 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 2: could not physically get him on the ground. There's all 186 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 2: the players of guy's bouncing off of him as he 187 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 2: just kind of rumbling down the field, hanged bodies hanging 188 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 2: on him like that. Kelsey is gonna work in zones 189 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 2: and strace, He's gonna separate at the top of his route. 190 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 2: He's gonna get what he gets, but like he's not 191 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 2: going to You're not gonna run guys over. And then 192 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 2: in the run game, it's not even I mean, it's 193 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 2: not even close. 194 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 5: No, I just meant. I just meant on chemistry with 195 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 5: quarterback in tight end, that's all. 196 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 2: They have, unbelievab chemistry. There was a next inst that 197 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 2: that they had completed like twenty nine straight balls when targeted. 198 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 2: Mahomes had completed twenty nine straight to Kelsey, think about 199 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 2: how crazy that is. They had the probability of like 200 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 2: point zero three percent of that happening. Like that's that's 201 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 2: how stupid it was, And I do want to say 202 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 2: one thing as we move on here. The Chiefs defense 203 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 2: is it is the one of the best versions of 204 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 2: that defense that I've seen, and they've had Super Bowl defenses. 205 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 2: One of the things that they do that I love, 206 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,719 Speaker 2: Like you watch a guy like Lugerius snead Buck. They 207 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 2: get the hands on people every snap, like they don't 208 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,319 Speaker 2: give free access. In a league where so much of 209 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 2: the passing game is rhythm and timing based, it seems 210 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 2: like it's not that you know, complicated that it's it 211 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 2: helps when you can get your hands on guys and 212 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 2: reroute them just a little bit. Now, they still give 213 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 2: up some explosives down the field because Chargers have players, 214 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 2: but they don't make it easy on you defensively. 215 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 4: So it's funny, DJ you talked about that. 216 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 3: It is one of the things that drives me crazy, 217 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 3: Like you see guys just playing off and just conceding 218 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 3: yards and just giving them. And I don't know, I'll 219 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 3: say this, like I'm a believer that you need to 220 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 3: make receivers work for. 221 00:09:58,679 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 4: Every yard they get. 222 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 3: Like most guys if you challenge them early and they 223 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 3: go these long stretches without touching the ball, they'll kind 224 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 3: of check out and power and they'll turn on the quarterback. 225 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 3: So I believe you should do what the Kansa City 226 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 3: Chiefs do. Hey man, make them earn it, touch them 227 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 3: every time. It's annoying. It's almost like when we play basketball. 228 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 3: You know, you play in the YMCA and there's this 229 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 3: one guy who's gonna be the defensive guy, right, so 230 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 3: you're off in the corner not really into play, but 231 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 3: his chest is on you, like can I get some room? 232 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:29,959 Speaker 3: But it's that guy, and it's the guy who has 233 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,839 Speaker 3: no talent. Sometimes you need to trigue wide receivers like that, 234 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 3: like make them always kind of feel you because it's annoying. 235 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 4: It's an annoying. 236 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:40,959 Speaker 2: By the way, do you know how many contested the 237 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 2: targets that the Kansas City Chiefs had in this game? 238 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 4: Two oh two? 239 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, but they weren't that most of them weren't from Kelsey. 240 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 4: Oh. I mean, like you talk about challenging people. They 241 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 4: had two contested targets, so unbelievable. 242 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 2: So anybody only threw it forty two times, so you 243 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 2: know that not great? All right, let's let's get to 244 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 2: the next one here. We're gonna go back a few 245 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 2: days here on this one. We don't need to We 246 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 2: don't need to linger along on this one. But I 247 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 2: know it's a few days old, but your game Jagged Saints, 248 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 2: and man that the CHaGS. You guys are positioned in 249 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 2: a great spot right now. 250 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 4: Yeah. So here's the game. The game. Uh, it's not 251 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 4: even really about the result. 252 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 3: I think the big thing that came out of the 253 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 3: game is Trevor Lawrence's uh willingness to play. Trevor Lawrence 254 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 3: the last game against the Naps Coast, at the very 255 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:31,599 Speaker 3: end of the game, he runs a bull leg, he 256 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 3: hurts his knee, he's braced up, and it's a short week. 257 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 3: So I see him leaving with his wife on Sunday 258 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 3: and he's kind of gimping out, had a big old 259 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 3: brace on, and I was like, well, that's not good 260 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 3: considering they play on a Thursday. And Doug peterson Is said, 261 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 3: I didn't know if he's gonna play. I don't know 262 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 3: if he's gonna play. I watched him in pre game 263 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 3: and i'mna be honest with you. I'm watching him throw 264 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 3: and it's not great, right. So he's trying to make 265 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 3: these throws. The first ones are just fluttering all over 266 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,599 Speaker 3: the place. He then settles down and he's look, he 267 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 3: has the a team that he's working and you know 268 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 3: it's big time when in pregame is Calvin Ridley, Evan Ingram, 269 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 3: Christian Kirk running routes an hour and a half before 270 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 3: the game, and I was like, oh, yeah, they're really 271 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 3: trying to see if he can throw DJ. Early in 272 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 3: the game, he just takes off running and the whole 273 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 3: time I'm like, get down, get down, and it's like 274 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 3: a big run and those things. 275 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 4: But what that did. 276 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 3: He earned more points in the locker room than you 277 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 3: ever can imagine because of his toughness. And there's something 278 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 3: to be said for Look, Philip Rivers always played, Eli 279 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: Manning always played, and we were the left beloves. When 280 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 3: you're the franchise quarterback, you have to show up. And 281 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 3: there's something about like when you displayed that level of toughness. 282 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 4: That ingratiates you to the team. 283 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 3: And because of that, I think the affinity that his 284 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 3: teammates have for him, the respect that the coaches have 285 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 3: for him, who leaps and bounds because of his willingness 286 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 3: to play and how he played in spite of this 287 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 3: stuff and so one of the things that we talk 288 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 3: about in evaluation is toughness with quarterbacks. That exhibition of 289 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 3: toughness goes a long way in that lock of them. 290 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 4: No, that's big. I think that's a great point. RT. 291 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 2: On the Saint side of things, I felt terrible for 292 00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 2: Foster Moreau at the end of guy. 293 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 4: He's such a good guy. 294 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, obviously he went through you know 295 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: what he went through, overcoming you know, cancer this past 296 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 1: off season, and you know, he's an LSU guy and 297 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: you know, wants to do great down there, you know, 298 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: and it's just you know, what I appreciated was Alvin 299 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: Kamara and Jowan Johnson going to pick him up after 300 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 1: the game, you know, and you love seeing that stuff. 301 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 1: And I think that tells you something about, you know, 302 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: where the Saints are in terms of, you know, the 303 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 1: locker room and obviously in the face of you know, 304 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: more struggle than they have faced in their entire careers 305 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 1: really in these last two years and certainly in the 306 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 1: start to the season. So you know, it tells you 307 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: that they got some guys that they can kind of 308 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: rally around and hopefully, you know, find a way. I mean, look, 309 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: in the end Derek Carr throwing at fifty five times. 310 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 1: This game is again, you know, probably not what you want. 311 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 5: But yeah, you're in and out. 312 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: You're you got an opportunity there, game time touchdown, you know, 313 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 1: and they had their chances. They just they have not 314 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: been able to take advantage of opportunities the way they 315 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: need to. 316 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 4: No doubt. 317 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 2: I do want to correct one error from earlier. There 318 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 2: was four contested targets in the. 319 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 4: Oh, that's ridiculous. I had a storder with. 320 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 2: Just Kelsey, so I didn't want to make it one. 321 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 2: I don't want to over exaggerate here, can can Can 322 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 2: I bring this up? 323 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 3: Because you guys like you have a quarterback in DJ 324 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 3: I got a wide receiver and htt I just want 325 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 3: to know, uh Rhett, I ask you this, sir, when 326 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 3: Derek Carr is you're a quarterback and he's making these 327 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 3: theatrics and gestures for the world to know about very 328 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 3: demonsterra that you might have blown around, Like how do 329 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 3: you feel about that when you when you come to 330 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 3: the sideline, because I don't think you, as a wide 331 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 3: receiver are reacting like that when he overthrows the guy 332 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 3: he throws his thirtieth checkdown on the day. It just 333 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: seems like a lot for an organization. This head Drew Brees, 334 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 3: the cosum and leader that you know, the dom has 335 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 3: seen Drew Brees and how he conducts himself. And then 336 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 3: here we have Derek Carr six seven games in and 337 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 3: it is it's really a big show. Particularly when you're 338 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 3: down on the sideline, oh the opposite sideline. You can 339 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 3: see it and I'm like, this is not gonna play. Well, 340 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 3: He's not gonna play here. 341 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: Here's the one thing I'll say is generally, you know 342 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: when you screwed up, right, and so like unless like 343 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: you are vehemently in disagreement with Derek Carr and his 344 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: assessment of what you were supposed to do on that play, 345 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: like you to a certain extent, Like you know. 346 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 5: It's like, yeah, you know what, I I screwed that up. 347 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: I you know, maybe I deserve it, but yeah, you'd 348 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: still like to not see I mean, remember we were 349 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: we were dissecting this like crazy. At the end of 350 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: Tom Brady's career too, where he was you know, into 351 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: his Patriots run, I should say, where he was getting 352 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: some major frustration with some of his wide receivers and he, 353 00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: like you know, and you know, but he's the greatest 354 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: ever play the game. 355 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 5: You know. 356 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: I think I think that there's probably a little bit 357 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: of frustration there on both sides. And I think that 358 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: that's where as you mentioned it could it could cause 359 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 1: some issues here because I don't think Derek's been flawless, 360 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: so you know, and while he's been okay, I don't 361 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: think it's it's been enough to say that I am 362 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: above that type of criticism on the other side. So 363 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: and he said it after the game, I'll give him 364 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: some credit. He's got to chill out a little bit, 365 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: got to chill out a little bit. But they got problems. 366 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: I mean, they got real they got real issues on 367 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: offense SAG. 368 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know on that one. To me in 369 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 2: the in between the lines is when it's that that 370 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 2: was what drive me crazy. And so yeah, if you 371 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 2: saw it, and I'm just talking about my musy little career, 372 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 2: I'm just talking about just being around it. When I 373 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 2: would see receivers when you know it buck, when they 374 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 2: start jumping up and down and skipping and like shaking 375 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 2: their hands that you know, like come on, he he 376 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 2: wants to be like, dude, you have any idea how 377 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 2: hard it is to play this position back here with 378 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 2: all this going on right here, like I'm going to 379 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 2: miss you sometimes, Like we'll talk about it. We get 380 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 2: over the sideline, if you want to come over, and 381 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 2: if you want to give, you know, give me some 382 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 2: stern words about how pissed off you are that you 383 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 2: were open and I missed you, then that's fine. But 384 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,679 Speaker 2: on the field of play, I don't like it. To me, 385 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 2: that's where I kind of draw the distinction. And then 386 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 2: on the on the quarterback side of things, that's just 387 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 2: what comes to the position. I say, the quarterback and 388 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 2: the head coach, I'd put him, I'd lump him together. 389 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 2: I thought when we were talking about the Giants game 390 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago against the Bills, when day ball, 391 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 2: when when Tyrod Taylor, you know, ran the play and 392 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 2: checked to a run and they don't get any points 393 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 2: at the end of the half, he sprints out onto 394 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 2: the field and he's airing him out. So it's like 395 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 2: the whole world can see, like, dude, we all know 396 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,919 Speaker 2: that Tyrod Taylor screwed up. We all know that he 397 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 2: knows that. You know that the whole stadium, everybody watching 398 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 2: you don't have to air him out. You're going to 399 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 2: get bonus points for protecting him and then have that 400 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 2: conversation in the locker room. And I feel like quarterbacks 401 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,159 Speaker 2: the same way. Hey you ran the wrong route, I 402 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 2: threw a pick. I'm just gonna walk off the field. 403 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 2: I'm not going to say anything. I'm not going to 404 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 2: show you up. And I'll take that. I'll take that bullet. 405 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 2: And what it's gonna do is gonna build my credibility 406 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 2: with the team. 407 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's just it's just annoying to watch an 408 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 3: But fuck, it's that rule that we've said. 409 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:20,360 Speaker 2: It's the rule that we've always said, which is it's 410 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 2: very simple. When it's right, it's we. When it's wrong, 411 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 2: it's me. That's the that's the rule of playing quarterback. 412 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 4: That's it. Rhet. 413 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 2: How about Uh, this is a game, by the way, 414 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 2: this Browns Colts game. I'm in the press I'm in 415 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 2: the press box for the for the Chiefs game, Chiefs 416 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 2: Chargers game. It was one of those ones where like, 417 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 2: I don't I'm not exaggerating. It was a double take, 418 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 2: Like I looked at this scoreboard and I was like 419 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 2: I looked, I was like, what like at a halftime 420 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 2: scored this game. I was like, how the heck is 421 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,920 Speaker 2: Gardner Minshew and the Colts? I really scored this many 422 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 2: points against the Browns? 423 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: Right, yeah, great question. And you know, I think you 424 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: you start looking at it. I mean, look, Guard Minshew 425 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: is a good player. Now, he's got some turnovers obviously 426 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: that he wants to have back in this game, four 427 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,120 Speaker 1: of them to be exact, one of them through the air, 428 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,239 Speaker 1: and then the three fumbles. But I mean, but that 429 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 1: brings us to the real point of this whole discussion. 430 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 4: Here. 431 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 1: We can talk about the points and all that stuff, 432 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: but I mean, Miles Garrett is just a superhuman. 433 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 5: Like there's just there's just no other way around it. 434 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: Like I spent my morning like googling superheroes and I'm like, 435 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 1: you know what, none of these guys are as good 436 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 1: as Miles Garrett. 437 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 4: You know what I mean. 438 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like he's the Hulk, He's the Flash, 439 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: He's like the Silver Surfer, iron Man, whatever you want 440 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 1: to call him. 441 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 5: Like he's all into one. Nobody does you. 442 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 4: There's there are so few. 443 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: Humans on this planet that can do what he did 444 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 1: on that field goal block at his sides and then 445 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 1: and then obviously you know the speed and the power 446 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: that he's got off the edge to create that. 447 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 5: Turnover in the end zone. 448 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: I mean, those were game changing plays and those are 449 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: plays that you got to have when you're playing a 450 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: quarterback you know who you know didn't start the game 451 00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 1: and it made just one start for your team before that. 452 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: And obviously you know, isn't you know, one of the 453 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: top five quarterbacks in the league. So I mean, like, 454 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 1: dude just takes it and puts it all on his shoulders. 455 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: And Jim Schwartz, I mean, credit again to what they 456 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: do defensively to set him up for success, but he 457 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: beats double teams. I mean like it's almost like what 458 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,199 Speaker 1: else Shan Steyke is like, what else do you mean 459 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: to do? 460 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 4: You know? 461 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 1: I just I feel like, you know, the fact that 462 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: he passes Reggie White for the most sacks by a 463 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: player before turning twenty eight years old, I think just 464 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: kind of makes you sit back for a second and 465 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: go like, Okay, let's appreciate fully what we're seeing here. 466 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: You know what I mean, no question, Buck, what's your take? 467 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: I know you you see the Colts inside that division, 468 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 1: follow that team that they've they're that competitive in that game. 469 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 1: I don't win, there's no moral victories. But to me, 470 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,359 Speaker 1: when you lose Richardson for the year and you've got 471 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew out there and rhet talked about you get 472 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 1: some of the good, but you're going to get the 473 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: turnovers through all that. 474 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,880 Speaker 4: I mean it's a one point game. Yeah, No, really 475 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 4: scrappy team. 476 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 3: And I think we talked about it like, this is 477 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 3: a team that has gone all in on the prototypes. 478 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 4: You know, at the position. 479 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 3: They were the ones that took all the guys with 480 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 3: the testing numbers and the heightway sides of speed and 481 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,719 Speaker 3: all that, and so this is a team that plays 482 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 3: fast and they've been put in a scheme where we 483 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 3: kind of talked about if you take great athletes and 484 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 3: you have a collection of teachers on your coaching staff, 485 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 3: what could it look like. 486 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 4: And that's kind of what we're seeing. The Colts are 487 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 4: showing you. 488 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 3: Hey, if you have great teachers and you take the 489 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 3: best athletes that are available in the draft, you might 490 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 3: be able to put together a good team if you 491 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 3: have the right teachers that are willing to put them 492 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 3: on the field, because they play much better than you 493 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 3: would think their roster was suggested they play based on 494 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 3: the experience, and what they have to me is the 495 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 3: credit of the coaching staff and the scouting department being 496 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,679 Speaker 3: on the same page. And I think the future is 497 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 3: bright in Indianapolis when they continue to add more pieces 498 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 3: to the puzzle. 499 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, a nice see Josh downs go five for a buck, 500 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 2: twenty five and a touchdown.

Yeah, that's a tough one. 506 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 2: Look, look, rehtt and I know we can't say anything 507 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 2: without a way nothing. 508 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 4: But but it would be nice. It would be nice. 509 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 2: And vison jebeo doing it freaking the who's gotcha? Is 510 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 2: that what they call themselves? 511 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 4: By the way I think they do? Yeah? 512 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 2: Who whatever, Yeah whatever. Anyways, tough one for the tar Heels. 513 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 2: All right, we're gonna take quick break. We come back. 514 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 2: We'll talk about the big Sunday night matchup between the 515 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 2: Dolphins and the Eagles right after this. All right, this 516 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 2: was probably the game of the week, not probably, this 517 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 2: was the game of the week one that I got 518 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 2: to see the first half on watching it on my 519 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 2: phone on the bus on the way to the airport, 520 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 2: and then then just saw the score a teend of 521 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 2: the game, and then was excited to get up this 522 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 2: morning and uh and watch the tape, watched all twenty 523 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 2: two and see you know what happened in this game. 524 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 2: And I the first thing I did is I popped 525 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 2: on the Dolphins offense because when you look at it, 526 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 2: when they only have seventeen points and seven came via 527 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 2: the defense, You're like, okay, ten points. This is the 528 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 2: most explosive, the most dynamic offense in the league. Like 529 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 2: did the Eagles, what'd they do? How'd they shut this 530 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 2: thing down? And I'll start with the positives for the Dolphins. 531 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 2: Don't panic, don't if you're a Dolphins fan, They're fine. 532 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 2: They had so many snaps on the other side of 533 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 2: the fifty. I mean, they had so many opportunities, and 534 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 2: then and then they exhaust on downs on one on 535 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 2: a fourth and three, they don't aren't able to convert. 536 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 2: You have to pick uh, you know, towards the end 537 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 2: of the game in the in the red zone, they 538 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 2: they had they had a touchdown called back. They had 539 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 2: what would have been a touchdown to Tyreek Hill. He 540 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 2: somehow bobbles I mean, he kind of almost kneed the 541 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 2: ball out of his own hands on the running into 542 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 2: the end zone. Like, there was a lot of opportunity 543 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 2: for them in this game, and some of it was 544 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,360 Speaker 2: was definitely self inflicted. Now, the Eagles did a nice 545 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 2: job of what we've talked about in the past when 546 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 2: you play this team, if you can get your linebackers 547 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 2: to get back there and get depth, which was nice 548 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 2: to see. I thought, you know, watching back the tape 549 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,199 Speaker 2: of this game, Nikobe Dean was the first time I 550 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,199 Speaker 2: kind of got excited about seeing him and what he 551 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 2: was doing running around, which was great to see. But 552 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 2: they're gonna play, They're gonna try and get after you 553 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 2: up front, and they forced some big penalties, so it 554 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 2: wasn't just the you know, they had what three sacks 555 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 2: I believe in this game. It was nice to see 556 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 2: the first sack of Nolan Smith's career. He was unblocked 557 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 2: but got his first sack. Yeah, but what sweat was 558 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 2: really active that you know, Jalen Carter, you know, drew 559 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 2: a penalty. Like they they were able to get them 560 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 2: off schedule with some penalties that showed you the impact 561 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 2: of their front. Their their defense played well. That being said, 562 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 2: they were still ops. There were still ops for Miami 563 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 2: in this game. And I think my biggest takeaway was 564 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 2: not what I anticipated. I thought I was gonna watch 565 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 2: it and come away saying, man, the Eagles, they dominated 566 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 2: them defensively. And I came away saying, you know what, 567 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 2: the Eagles played well enough, and I thought the Miami 568 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 2: Dolphins left little meat on the bone. 569 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 4: I mean, I like, I would go there. I would. 570 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 3: I would say, here's here's the thing. We talked about 571 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 3: these teams being built very similar on on the podcast 572 00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 3: in terms of like how they've been constructed, the way 573 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 3: they they they've done it. I would say that the 574 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 3: Eagles depth has certainly helped them because they can just 575 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 3: bring so many different waves. I would also say that 576 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 3: the Eagles are much faster team than I anticipated because 577 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 3: some of the trickery that the Dolphins have utilized to 578 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 3: create big plays they were minimal games. I mean, this 579 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 3: is a team that is basically running a version of 580 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 3: the wing tea with all the spinner series, the packages, 581 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 3: the coming one way, coming around yeah, and they really 582 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 3: try and get you out of source, but the Eagles 583 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 3: are able to run them down and meet them at 584 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,119 Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage. And so for a team that 585 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 3: really specializes they're running in the sea gap, which is 586 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 3: like the gap between the tackling the tight end they 587 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 3: want to run outside. Eagle speed and explosiveness really showed 588 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 3: up to me when I looked at this game. 589 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's where you know, depth along the defensive front. 590 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: You know where you got those guys, and you've got 591 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: multiple dudes that you can keep rolling in there. I 592 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 1: also think that that you know, we've talked about this 593 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 1: kind of the last couple of weeks, but for Miami, 594 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: you know, their depth along the offensive line has been 595 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 1: challenged in the last couple of weeks, you know, with 596 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: Tron Armstead kind of being in and out and he's 597 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: gonna be out for a few weeks, and Connor Williams, 598 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 1: you know, was a big loss for them at center. 599 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: I think even Eikenberg ended up with a with a 600 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 1: couple of pre snaps penalties on there that that affected them, 601 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:14,919 Speaker 1: And like, I don't know how natural the center he 602 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: really he is, but Connor Williams has been a really 603 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: good player for them. So I just I think a 604 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: little bit of a confluence of events there. You meet, 605 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 1: you know, you're less than full strength on your offensive front, 606 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 1: and then you meet a defensive group that is as 607 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 1: deep and talented and fast and physical as you're probably 608 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 1: going to see this season. 609 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 5: And that's basically what happened. Forty five rushing yards. 610 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 1: I mean that that has become such a big piece, right, 611 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: It's not just a flash and dash of Tyreek Hill, 612 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: by the way, missed a couple of opportunities himself as 613 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 1: you were talking about Tej. But yeah, I just I 614 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:48,600 Speaker 1: think when they can't when they can't get some of 615 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: that run game stuff going, you know, this offense kind 616 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: of struggles a little bit. 617 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, one of the things I was thinking 618 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 4: from the eagle side of things. You know, A J. 619 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 2: Brown has another huge game, ten for a buck thirty 620 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 2: seven and a touchdown god Or got in the end zone. 621 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 2: Had a nice day. He's having a really good year. 622 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts, guys is so rugged and so tough. He's 623 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 2: beat up in this game. He still manages to make 624 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 2: the plays he needs to make. It's two hundred and 625 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 2: seventy nine yards, a couple passing touchdowns, there's an interception, 626 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 2: there's some other throws I know he'd like to have back. 627 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,640 Speaker 2: You know, they did the sneak thing a zillion times. 628 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 2: He had eleven carries for twenty one yards, So I 629 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 2: mean it's just kind of a rugged, rugged day, including 630 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 2: a touchdown, and that the takeaway that I had though 631 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,719 Speaker 2: from their side of things, is maybe the player that 632 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 2: holds the keys to who's going to come out of 633 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 2: the NFC is going to be Marcus Mariota because I 634 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 2: know his knees hurt. I don't know if Jalen plays 635 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 2: this week. Maybe he's fine, maybe he's able to get 636 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 2: through this injury, but the way that he's used, he's 637 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 2: going to miss some games. So you know, whether that's 638 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 2: one game, two games, you know for I don't know, 639 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 2: but you can't. I don't care how strong he is. 640 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 2: I know he's incredibly tough, he's incredibly strong, how rugged 641 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: he plays, buck He's not going to be there for 642 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 2: seventeen weeks this year. He's going to miss some time. 643 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,360 Speaker 2: And when you think about how even the forty nine 644 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:08,639 Speaker 2: ers and the Eagles are and we know this is 645 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 2: a collision course that we are headed towards. 646 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 4: Yep. 647 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 2: If it's a three game sample size with Marcus Mariota, 648 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 2: he could hold the keys of who has home field 649 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 2: advantage in the NFC. I really that was my takeaway 650 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 2: watching this game. 651 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then watching the game because Jalen did come 652 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,679 Speaker 3: out with the second in the second half, he had 653 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,120 Speaker 3: the knee brace on. He didn't really talk about it 654 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 3: in the postgame interview. He got to just everyone's dealing 655 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 3: with stuff, be fine, but to just work you wonder, Okay, 656 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 3: if this is an injury, is it best to sit 657 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 3: him now, let him get fully healthy, or are you 658 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 3: going to try and let him grind it out and 659 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 3: then potentially lose him when it matters down the stretch. 660 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:48,959 Speaker 4: I mean, I gotta be careful. 661 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 5: I'm just I'm looking at this, Bucky. 662 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 1: And just to chime in here briefly, next two games 663 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,959 Speaker 1: Commanders and Cowboys, So two division games, then you got 664 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: the bye week Week ten, and then how about this 665 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 1: four game, five game stretch? Really, Chiefs Bills, forty nine, Ers, Cowboys, Seahawks. 666 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 3: Coming out of the buy for Philly, it almost seems 667 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 3: like Red if you're going to make the move this is. 668 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 4: The time, yeah, ahead of the bye and then attack 669 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 4: by on the end of it. 670 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, because you think, hey, we should be able to 671 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 3: get with the Commanders without him, even if we drop 672 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 3: one to the Cowboys. Now, we should be able to 673 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:23,239 Speaker 3: get them on the back end. 674 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 4: We have the buye. 675 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 3: They'll give you three almost four full weeks for him 676 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 3: to get right and to be available for that stretch 677 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 3: run depending on what. 678 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to pick on anybody here, but 679 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: I mean, just what we saw from Marcus Mariota in 680 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: the preseason. 681 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 2: Feel that's what. But that's why I'm saying, that's why 682 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 2: I think it's so key. Yeah, you know, I have 683 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 2: my doubts for sure. This is not you know, when 684 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,719 Speaker 2: Gardner Minshew was in that spot, you felt okay about it. 685 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 2: I don't feel great about Marcus Mariota, but I would 686 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 2: say that they you know, this team has kind of 687 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 2: a grit and the toughness that that's where the defense 688 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 2: will crank it up a notch and they'll run the ball. 689 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 2: You know, there's at least a there And I think 690 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 2: Bucky's point, you can you can navigate these maybe these 691 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 2: next games with that after the bye, with that slate 692 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 2: that you just I don't think you want to navigate 693 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 2: those games, don't. 694 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 4: And you need him. 695 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 3: You need him as as close to full strength as 696 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,479 Speaker 3: you can get for that for that run. And so 697 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,880 Speaker 3: if you if you can sit him down and get 698 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 3: them back healthy after the bat you should do it 699 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,239 Speaker 3: because that's where you're really going to need him. If 700 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 3: you can go one and one coming out of this stretch, Look, 701 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 3: you're not going to fall back much, if at all. 702 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 3: And if you're the Eagles, you probably think you can 703 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 3: win both of them if you get it done. 704 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 2: And and if you if you drop one of these, 705 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 2: now Buck, well you've got the head to head with 706 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 2: the Niners. So if you have if you have Jalen 707 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 2: healthy and you go win that game, that's like win two. Yeah, 708 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 2: so that would be big. The beatdown of the week, 709 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 2: by the way, Holy moly, wow was your game here? 710 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 3: Buck? 711 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 2: That was the Ravens just beating the stuffing out of 712 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 2: the Lions. 713 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 4: You know what. 714 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 3: I feel like this was a message to me because 715 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 3: I sitting here talking about this offense with Monken. I 716 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 3: went on TV a weeke and some change ago. Oh Rare, 717 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 3: were you dead today? I was talking about them playing volleyball. Yes, yes, 718 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 3: it was Thursday night. Yeah, Thursday night date. Yeah, seven drops. 719 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 3: I was like, oh, I didn't know that the Ravens 720 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 3: had a volleyball team. But they just they're just knocking 721 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 3: everything down and then all of a sudden, this offense 722 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 3: shows up and Lamar Jackson looks like MVP Lamar Jackson. 723 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 3: The way they're throwing it, the way he's running around, 724 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 3: the offense. 725 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 4: Is clicking fifty seven, Like I looked. 726 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 3: This was not on my bingo, This is not on 727 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 3: my bago. Cord Man, I would say this, as much 728 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 3: as everyone's gonna talk about the offense, I think we 729 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 3: might have been slipping sleeping on the defense. 730 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 4: I think I agreed. 731 00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 3: Third game, Yeah, third game with Aphil teams to ten 732 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 3: points a fewer. I think I saw the only graphic 733 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 3: like they've only give enough seven offensive touchdowns? 734 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 4: Is that true? That can't be true. That can't be true. 735 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 3: Like the way that they're playing, but they're playing really 736 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 3: good on defense, and that defense with this offense that 737 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 3: has the potential to explode. Man, they put the Ravens 738 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 3: right back into the conversations. One of the teams that 739 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 3: you don't want to talk about in the tournament. 740 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: Great point, and I think it was nice to see 741 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: and to see that kind of the full complement of 742 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson's targets kind of show up. Obviously, Zay Flowers 743 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 1: has been there arguably their most consistent piece as a 744 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: rookie these first couple of weeks, but kind of reintroduce 745 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 1: yourself to the fact that Mark Andrews can be a 746 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: game wrecker. Rashat Bateman made some catches in this game, 747 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: They got Gus Edwards rolling a little bit, and so 748 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 1: it just it all felt like it was working. And 749 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: they jumped on Detroit from the jump, you know, and 750 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: that's that's obviously key, especially at home, you know, and 751 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 1: a team like that, you know in Detroit, you got 752 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 1: to get up early. You don't want to find yourself down. 753 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: And so I just I thought Lamar played, you know, 754 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 1: this is the best game we've seen him play in. 755 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 2: I don't know, in two years do we see by 756 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 2: the way in that game where you had a young, 757 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 2: exciting off offensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions, is it 758 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 2: time that maybe Mike McDonald gets some love. As Buck 759 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 2: was talking about this Ravens defense and how well they're 760 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 2: playing when you start, as you start getting to the 761 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 2: midway point, you start seeing some of these lists come 762 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 2: out with future head coaches. We did a nice job 763 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,479 Speaker 2: at Michigan for Jim Jim Harbaugh. Then you know he's 764 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 2: bounced back and forth with John with the Ravens. He's 765 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 2: been excellent. 766 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 4: Man. He's a young guy who obviously is really really smart. 767 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 2: So in a league where we see all the offensive 768 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 2: guys getting the lake up, I wouldn't sleep on him 769 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 2: as being a head coaching candidate here in this next cycle. Yeah, Ratt, 770 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 2: what do you got here? What's your next game? 771 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: I believe we're going Patriots Bills. Yeah, so I'll just 772 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: I'll tackle this. Initially from the Patriots side of thing, 773 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: there was an efficiency and effectiveness to this offense for 774 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 1: New England that we have not seen this year. I 775 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 1: thought early on, man, it was just mac Jones was 776 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: on target and they were working the ball, you know, 777 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: to a variety of different pop Douglas was getting the 778 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: ball quickly and letting him kind of use that athleticism, 779 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 1: let him go to work. Farrell Brown find some chunk 780 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: plays from the tight end spot. In the past game, 781 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 1: there was a balance Mac didn't throw it forty five 782 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 1: times completed twenty five to thirty in this game, and 783 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 1: even though the run game wasn't particularly productive, they stuck 784 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: with it for the most part achieve some balance. But 785 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 1: maybe the biggest part about it is the offensive line. 786 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 1: Combo worked arguably for the first time this season now 787 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,839 Speaker 1: like they've been missing Cole Strange for the last three games. 788 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:31,240 Speaker 5: He comes back into the lineup. 789 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: That then allows Michael Wainu to move over to right tackle, 790 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: where they had just been getting beat handily on that 791 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,399 Speaker 1: right tackle spot, and he kind of settles that down. 792 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 1: They allow zero sacks in just two quarterback hits and 793 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 1: arguably their lowest pressure percentage of the season this week 794 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 1: against the Bills defense would have been one of the 795 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 1: best in pressuring the quarterback all year. That to me 796 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 1: is the absolute key to this game. Mac Jones, when 797 00:34:56,400 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 1: given a second, is good enough to win games in 798 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: this league. And I think he's proven that time and 799 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 1: time again, and he's been under constant durest the last 800 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: month or so, and so the fact that he was 801 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:11,720 Speaker 1: able to breathe for a second and then deliver some throws, 802 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:13,839 Speaker 1: I mean, that was big and it wasn't like an 803 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: overly explosive offensive output, but they made plays when they 804 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 1: had to, made enough, especially down there late in the 805 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: game with the Kasiki touchdown, so that part was really good. 806 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 2: I don't even know buck if I'm you know, but 807 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:28,319 Speaker 2: Rett's excited about the Patriots because they looked so much 808 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 2: better than they've looked. My emotion coming out of that 809 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 2: game is the man, what the heck is wrong with 810 00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:37,399 Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills. They're they're up and down roller coaster team. 811 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 5: They lack DJ and buckets. 812 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: They lack so much I don't know, I don't know 813 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: the creativity so where they lacked so much in terms 814 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: of consistency and rhythm on offense. 815 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 5: It is like, man, I mean like I can feel 816 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:53,200 Speaker 5: the frustration. 817 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 1: You know, like watching the game and you know, Josh Allen, 818 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 1: it is so it feels like that offense is so 819 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 1: boom or bust man, you know, and you know he 820 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 1: might throw three picks and you know, you still feel 821 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 1: confident in their ability to come back and win the game. 822 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: But I don't know what then, I don't know if 823 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 1: it's they're still struggling to find the right identity with 824 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 1: Ken Dorsey, is the play caller. But man, they just 825 00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:18,239 Speaker 1: they have not truly found the rhythm. I mean they 826 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: are just such an out of sync at times offense. 827 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 3: It feels like, yeah, it's very cluncky when you watched him. 828 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 3: There's no real rhyme or reason. I think the main 829 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 3: thing you don't know what their identity is. Right, So 830 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 3: when we think about the Miami Dolphins, we have a 831 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 3: clear picture of what their offensive identity is. It's about speed, 832 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 3: it's about getting to the perimeter, it's about explosive plays shots. 833 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,359 Speaker 3: You think about the Philadelphia Eagles, it's about the run 834 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 3: game complimented with a vertical passing game, the AJ Brown, 835 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:48,240 Speaker 3: Devoti Smith, and Dallas Goddard. But for the Buffalo Bills, 836 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 3: it's Josh Allen as a one man show. And I 837 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 3: don't know how that how that fares against some of 838 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,720 Speaker 3: these other top teams in the AFC. 839 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,840 Speaker 4: We've talked about the AFC being loaded from top to bottom. 840 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,799 Speaker 3: I don't know if you can just have, hey, Josh, 841 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:05,279 Speaker 3: we're gonna roll the ball out, We're gonna let you 842 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 3: do your thing, and we're gonna figure out a way 843 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 3: to score thirty points. I don't know if that's an 844 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,800 Speaker 3: effective strategy against the teams that in the AFC the 845 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 3: Bills were. In the NFC, sure right, demand they could 846 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 3: do it, but in the AFC, it's going to take 847 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 3: more structure, more organization offensively for them to be able 848 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 3: to get past some of these top teams. 849 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting just looking at I was pulling up 850 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 2: his numbers because I was curious on Josh. His completion 851 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 2: percentage is up seven percent over last year. His yards 852 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,319 Speaker 2: per attempt is, you know, almost identical, seven to six 853 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 2: last year, seven to five this year. Last year was 854 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,920 Speaker 2: thirty five touchdowns fourteen picks. This year fifteen and seven. 855 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 2: So that ratio is a little bit off. But if 856 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 2: you buy into ratings, I mean his rating and his 857 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 2: QBR are both up over last year. His rating right 858 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:55,480 Speaker 2: now is the highest of his career, which seems crazy. Yeah, 859 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 2: it just seems crazy because you watch it and it 860 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 2: does feel disjointing joining the right way put it, But 861 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 2: on paper, when you look at it, it's like he's 862 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 2: having his best year. It's that's hard to it's hard 863 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 2: to wrap my mind around because I was thinking the 864 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 2: point I was going to make was, man it you 865 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,240 Speaker 2: know this, I feel like this young group of superstars. 866 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,840 Speaker 2: When you look at Burrow and some of the adversity 867 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 2: he's faced this year, Herbert has been down and it 868 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,320 Speaker 2: hasn't been as easy of a ride for him. Josh 869 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 2: Allen's been down a little bit even, you know, until 870 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 2: this last week, Mahomes, with the other worldly standards he 871 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 2: had set for himself, wasn't quite what he had been. 872 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 2: I think we're seeing these young guys get challenged a 873 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 2: little bit. 874 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, we are seeing him get challenged, and it's just 875 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,440 Speaker 3: not it's just not what you expected. We thought this 876 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,720 Speaker 3: team would be ready to go now firmly, I believe 877 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 3: that they were going to be on the decent. I 878 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 3: didn't think they would stay up there. But I'm just 879 00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 3: surprised that the struggles they were seeing from the squad. 880 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 2: All right, but how about falcons and bucks here in 881 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,759 Speaker 2: a game. I'm gonna be honest on the road and 882 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 2: traveling until I look down at the paper, I don't 883 00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 2: even know who won the game. 884 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 4: Oh you are you? You weren't excited about the look. 885 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 2: I just like to be honest with the listeners. I 886 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,319 Speaker 2: don't I don't want to fake it. I didn't see 887 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 2: any of this game the. 888 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 4: King of the South. 889 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 2: I mean, that's still tell me as if I didn't know, 890 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 2: pretend like I didn't know. 891 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 4: Okay, Okay, so this this is okay. 892 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 3: Arthur Smith in his sideline antics and we've seen him 893 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 3: basically look like he has uh may lox or pepto 894 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,919 Speaker 3: bismol or whatever like he has it at his side 895 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 3: when he's watching his quarterback Desmond, and I think he 896 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 3: probably doubled up. I think he was double fisted on 897 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:41,919 Speaker 3: the sideline with pepto because Desmond ritter. 898 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 4: He's three fumbles, he lost three fumbles, three three. 899 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 3: Going into the end zone, being careless with the ball, 900 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 3: quarterback sneaks like those things things where this game should 901 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 3: have been. Look, they comfortably won this game, but because 902 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:06,120 Speaker 3: of those miscues and eras, it didn't happen the way 903 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:07,960 Speaker 3: that it should happen. Now, as great as he made 904 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 3: a play to help him get down, hit cal piss 905 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 3: on a strike to put him in field goal range, 906 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 3: but his carelessness with the football is going to drive 907 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 3: Arthur Smith to engage in some adult beverages or some 908 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 3: vicen he doesn't need to handle. Iving my fellow Tarrio 909 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 3: crazy with this turnout. 910 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 4: The first team to lose three red zone fumbles in 911 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 4: a game in twenty years Polish trap. Well, that's why 912 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 4: we've been that red zone. 913 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,880 Speaker 2: So again, I'm just not talking about this game specifically, 914 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 2: but that's why when we get to the offseason, we 915 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 2: want to fast forward to the topics of conversation. The 916 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,799 Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins to the Atlanta Falcons has been to move 917 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:48,840 Speaker 2: the sticks. Move that we have all three endorsed, the 918 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 2: first stamp on that that's the move that should happen. 919 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:53,800 Speaker 2: That team's ready to go. Man, they got a good group. 920 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:54,959 Speaker 2: They're ready to go right now. 921 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 5: And Bejeon barely even played. 922 00:40:57,120 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 4: By the way, what happened. He was sick, he says something. 923 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:01,160 Speaker 4: He had headaches. 924 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,719 Speaker 3: He had headaches the night before and then it led 925 00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 3: into the next morning and so he didn't didn't He 926 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,399 Speaker 3: can't give you a hard days. The good days work. 927 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 4: I'll tell you this. I'll tell you this, man. 928 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 2: I'm in a fantasy football league, that one that I've 929 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 2: played in since I was in high school. And this 930 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 2: is the worst fantasy football team I've ever had my 931 00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 2: entire life. And I took I took Bijon with like 932 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 2: the third pick. I'm like he's going to lead the 933 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 2: league in rushing. He's a freak. And then I looked 934 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 2: at the box score and I was like, wait, what 935 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:26,800 Speaker 2: what happened? 936 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, he didn't play. 937 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 2: Hasn't been great for my squad. By the way, of course, 938 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 2: I didn't play George Pickens the one week that he 939 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 2: goes off too. So whatever, team, Enough about my fantasy team, 940 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 2: anything on the Bucks side of things before we move 941 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 2: on to this next game. 942 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 1: Heyet, I mean I don't I don't particularly think I 943 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 1: don't want. 944 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:51,719 Speaker 4: To talk about Bucks. Yeah, I mean, guys, it wasn't 945 00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 4: the story of the game. 946 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 5: It just wasn't the story of the game. 947 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,279 Speaker 3: The story of the game with the Falcons allowing the 948 00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 3: Buccaneers to hang around when. 949 00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 1: The Bucks don't have a run game, Like, we talked 950 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 1: a lot, and you want to talk about fantasy, and 951 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:07,440 Speaker 1: the fantasy community talked forever this offseason about Rashad White, like, yeah, 952 00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,600 Speaker 1: he caught the passes and you know, and that still 953 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 1: gets points. But I mean they're not running the football, 954 00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: you know. And look, they really didn't a ton while 955 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:17,359 Speaker 1: Tom was there either, but it kind of shows up. 956 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 5: It feels like a little bit more now. 957 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 2: Interesting, all right, last one on the Big eight here, 958 00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 2: let's go rhtt. You had the Steelers and the Rams. 959 00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 2: A big win on the road for the Steelers, who, 960 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 2: by the way, I feel like we talked about how 961 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,439 Speaker 2: physical their camp was before the season started. We talked 962 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 2: about how this team like there's a toughness and a 963 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 2: greediness to them, and then they get their doors blown 964 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 2: off by the forty nine Ers and we're like, oh, 965 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 2: maybe we just missed a boat on that, and it's like, no, 966 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:45,839 Speaker 2: they're just it's not aesthetically pleasing, but once again, they 967 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 2: just find a way to win games. 968 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, you want to talk about not aesthetically pleasing, that's 969 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,319 Speaker 1: spending two hours on your commute home after that. 970 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:55,879 Speaker 5: Ram Steelers came from so. 971 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 2: Far yesterday, gos, tough Steelers, a lot of Steeler fans 972 00:42:59,120 --> 00:42:59,319 Speaker 2: and the. 973 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:04,439 Speaker 4: Lot Yes, indeed, So. 974 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 1: This game was was kind of interesting, right, I mean, 975 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,720 Speaker 1: obviously the Rams running back room was injury depleted, Kyen 976 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 1: Williams out, rivers out, so they had they called up, 977 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 1: you know, everybody from the practice squad, Royce Freeman, Darryl Henderson, 978 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 1: the old friend comes down on the mach Yeah, I know, 979 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 1: and it's still found some productivity there, and I think, 980 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:25,479 Speaker 1: you know, all of us that were worried about Pooka 981 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 1: and Akua's production with Cooper cup came back. Just turns 982 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: out it just probably helps a little bit, you know, 983 00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 1: to have Cooper in there. I mean, and Bucky and 984 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 1: I were talking about it on Game Day Live. I mean, 985 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a team that executes the 986 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: end cuts at at all levels of the of the 987 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:41,839 Speaker 1: defense better than the Rams do with the way that 988 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:43,840 Speaker 1: Stafford can sling it in the way that Pooka and 989 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:47,840 Speaker 1: Cooper find openings down the field in that area. 990 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:48,839 Speaker 5: So that was big. 991 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:50,960 Speaker 1: But this really comes down to the fourth quarter for me, 992 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:54,439 Speaker 1: really the third and fourth quarter with the Steelers. Third 993 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 1: quarter because t J. Watt picks off Matthew Stafford sets 994 00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 1: up the Steelers offense, they punched it into the end 995 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,080 Speaker 1: zone their back like they're starting to get that momentum. 996 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 1: And then in the fourth quarter, I thought, is really 997 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:06,799 Speaker 1: where this thing kind of came to play. They had 998 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 1: the Steelers ran twenty three plays in the fourth quarter, 999 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 1: sixteen of them were runs, eleven first downs in the 1000 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 1: fourth It's like they remembered who they were for a second, 1001 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: you know, what I mean, it was Najie Harris, it. 1002 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 5: Was Warren like they were all. 1003 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: I mean, they got into the game, like almost all 1004 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: of their rushing yardage for the game comes in the 1005 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. 1006 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:29,240 Speaker 4: Like Dwayne Washington. 1007 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 1: Was in there making some big plays as the you know, 1008 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:35,319 Speaker 1: quote unquote sixth offensive lineman, but as another tight end there, 1009 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 1: Kenny was flawless. Kenny Pickett in the in the fourth quarter, 1010 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: he went seven for seven, had a big time back 1011 00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:43,960 Speaker 1: shoulder throw to George Picktts throw the game on a 1012 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,879 Speaker 1: third and three, like Isaac Somalo peals off to try 1013 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:50,760 Speaker 1: to help the left packle as they put Aaron Donald 1014 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,839 Speaker 1: out rushing out wide on the left tackle and he's 1015 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 1: about to take care of a picket, but Smalu tries 1016 00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 1: to come over there, ends up body checking picket. Some How, 1017 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 1: he still gets his ball off and it goes right 1018 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 1: into the into the hands of Pickens on a on 1019 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 1: a third and three on the final drive. That allowed 1020 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 1: them to essentially to essentially kind of run the deal out. 1021 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 1: And and maybe the biggest thing and the biggest difference 1022 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 1: here is that they had the Matt Canada camera up 1023 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,359 Speaker 1: there in the booth and he was actually had something 1024 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 1: to celebrate, Like it was not the misery can like 1025 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:23,359 Speaker 1: he was actually up there. 1026 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 5: It's like let's go, you know, it was. 1027 00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 1: Like feeling it, Like I just felt like they had 1028 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: a rhythm, they had a they had a you know, 1029 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:30,840 Speaker 1: a commitment to the run game in that fourth quarter 1030 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 1: and maybe just maybe, Bucky, it's something for them to 1031 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:35,320 Speaker 1: build on real quick. 1032 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 2: Though, Buck is is uh? Is Dwayne Washington related to 1033 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 2: Darnel Washington? Sorry, that's. 1034 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:43,120 Speaker 4: Got my Washington. 1035 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:46,720 Speaker 5: Washington. 1036 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,360 Speaker 2: I was ready to I had that that punch and 1037 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 2: loaded and ready to go, and I had to sit 1038 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 2: there and hold it for a while to be able 1039 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:52,919 Speaker 2: to get that thing in there. 1040 00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 4: But thanks man. 1041 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 5: Sorry, sorry Darnell. 1042 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:58,799 Speaker 4: Not bad, Budd. That's okay, we we we got. 1043 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,040 Speaker 2: I think Dwayne Washington played for the Steelers though, right, 1044 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 2: why not? 1045 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 5: Maybe no. 1046 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:06,760 Speaker 4: Cornerback. He's drafted by the Vikings. 1047 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:08,280 Speaker 5: There's been there's been a couple. 1048 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:13,719 Speaker 3: Okay, nice, go ahead, Buck, Sorry about Look, this is 1049 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 3: this is what we talk about with the Steelers. Man, 1050 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,240 Speaker 3: They just find a way to get to the winner circle. 1051 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 3: It's never pretty. It's just effective. As much as people 1052 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 3: aid Matt Canada, he just somehow finds a way to 1053 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,160 Speaker 3: draw up enough place for them to score enough points 1054 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 3: to win games, and he will continue to be there, 1055 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:29,919 Speaker 3: probably be there twenty years from now, as the OC 1056 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:31,279 Speaker 3: will still be talking about it. 1057 00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:32,800 Speaker 4: But that's how it goes. 1058 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,920 Speaker 3: The big thing was George Pickens being a factor, George 1059 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,400 Speaker 3: Pickens kind of showing up and making some plays and 1060 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 3: finally getting to think like Dat Johnson also being there. 1061 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,600 Speaker 4: I mean, they got guys. Alan Robinson made a big catch. 1062 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:46,800 Speaker 4: I mean, they have enough guys. 1063 00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:48,839 Speaker 3: It's just a matter of organizing the play sheet where 1064 00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 3: those guys can touch it. They just haven't done it. 1065 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 3: So we'll see if they can get it together down 1066 00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:54,520 Speaker 3: the stretch. But this team is gonna be there. They're 1067 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:55,400 Speaker 3: gonna be in the conversation. 1068 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,879 Speaker 2: They're the cockroach. They're the cockroach of the AFC North. 1069 00:46:57,960 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 2: Like we'll talk about one week called the Ravens of 1070 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:01,239 Speaker 2: the best team and it's like, oh, the Browns have 1071 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 2: this all time defense, and it's like, you know, the Bengals, 1072 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 2: they'll get it going. You know, I'll get bur He'll 1073 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,800 Speaker 2: be back. And it's like Steelers, you're not killing the Steelers. 1074 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 2: They're going to be there. Whoever else is at the party. 1075 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 2: We'll see, but you can write it in ink that 1076 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 2: the Steelers will be. 1077 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 4: There at the end. 1078 00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 5: Darnell's going to be there. Boys, that's going to be there. 1079 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 4: That's right, Darnell, Dwayne or whatever. It's all the same starting. 1080 00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:25,680 Speaker 2: How about if I was going to go headline and 1081 00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:27,880 Speaker 2: I'll go back and forth with you guys, will go 1082 00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:31,799 Speaker 2: kind of rapid fire here, but just the headline takeaway 1083 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 2: from these other ones, buck the Raiders and the Bears. 1084 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 2: The Bears smash the Raiders thirty to twelve. What's the headline? 1085 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:44,479 Speaker 3: Why star Brian hoy I just know, like like why, 1086 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,560 Speaker 3: because this was a situation where I understood, like the 1087 00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:50,040 Speaker 3: previous week, Jimmy Garoppolo gets her second half. You put 1088 00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:52,560 Speaker 3: Brian Hoy in because he's a guy that's probably most 1089 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:55,080 Speaker 3: ready to play without reps. But now you had a 1090 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 3: full week to prepare. Ain't no Cone should be in 1091 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:58,960 Speaker 3: the starting quarterback. We have seen what this Brian Hory 1092 00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:01,959 Speaker 3: thing looks like. It doesn't look great, and it didn't 1093 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 3: look great against the Chicago Bears. And this is one 1094 00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,400 Speaker 3: where if you're a Raiders fan, you're looking at just 1095 00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,719 Speaker 3: from Daniels one, they're like man like, let's put the 1096 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 3: young guy in. Let's give him a chance. And it 1097 00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 3: also look you win and got Jimmy G. This had 1098 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:17,360 Speaker 3: to be part of the equation. When you got Jimmy G. 1099 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,319 Speaker 3: He's not a guy that's a seventeen game starter. He's 1100 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,799 Speaker 3: a twelve to thirteen game starter. And you need to 1101 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 3: have a good quarterback too. And I thought a and 1102 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:26,200 Speaker 3: O'Connell would be the guy to get the. 1103 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:30,120 Speaker 1: Ball well, and we talked about it on the show Buck. 1104 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:32,960 Speaker 1: But you know, I think Brian hoyerk sells at being 1105 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,759 Speaker 1: QB two coming in, you know, as you mentioned, with 1106 00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,440 Speaker 1: zero reps and being able to effectively lead the offense 1107 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,880 Speaker 1: the way he did a week ago. But as is 1108 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:44,000 Speaker 1: the case with many backup quarterbacks, you start exposing them 1109 00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:47,320 Speaker 1: to more reps in a role like this against the Bears, 1110 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:51,359 Speaker 1: and sometimes that's when you see why that they are 1111 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:52,160 Speaker 1: QB two. 1112 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 2: And that is that the line, by the way, you 1113 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,400 Speaker 2: remember when we were in high school whatever, the line 1114 00:48:57,480 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 2: was good from far but far from good. 1115 00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:06,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's Brian Hoyer. It's good few with something. 1116 00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know what I mean. But here's the other thing, 1117 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:10,960 Speaker 5: the other takeaway on that one. 1118 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:15,240 Speaker 1: Why does everyone want to throw Deontay Foreman out onto 1119 00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:17,480 Speaker 1: the trash heap after one year? I mean like he's 1120 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:19,480 Speaker 1: been on three teams and three years, it feels like 1121 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:21,080 Speaker 1: and every time he gets the ball he's like a one 1122 00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 1: hundred yard rusher. He had three touchdowns in his game. 1123 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:25,560 Speaker 1: Why is he gonna play for the Panthers right now 1124 00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 1: where he was a year ago? I mean, like you 1125 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 1: still in Tennessee, I don't. 1126 00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:34,000 Speaker 2: Roster that Panthers roster of you know, eighteen months ago 1127 00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 2: looks a lot better than that Panthers roster does right now. 1128 00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:37,440 Speaker 2: I can tell you that much. 1129 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 4: Yeah, they play a lot different too. What else we got? 1130 00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 4: All right? 1131 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 2: Next one here? Uh, let's go rat. You can hit 1132 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 2: this one because you're the official Giants watcher of the 1133 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:48,760 Speaker 2: podcast fourteen to seven. 1134 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:58,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know that they got some run game productivity 1135 00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:01,640 Speaker 1: from Saquon Barkley and and I think the biggest takeaway 1136 00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 1: is that they found Darren Waller. They remember Darren Waller 1137 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 1: is there and is one of the best tight ends 1138 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:08,239 Speaker 1: in the league. He goes for seven ninety eight in 1139 00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:11,400 Speaker 1: a touchdown and that was essentially all they needed. Defense 1140 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 1: played well in the game. 1141 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:13,880 Speaker 2: There you go and by the way, I thought the 1142 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:15,839 Speaker 2: other piece of information that came out of this was 1143 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,359 Speaker 2: it looks like they are going to get their left 1144 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:22,200 Speaker 2: tackle back for next week's game against the Jets, which 1145 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:24,359 Speaker 2: is going to be thirteen to ten, and it's going 1146 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 2: to be a slugfest Battle of New York. 1147 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:28,040 Speaker 4: They're looking forward to that one. 1148 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:31,600 Speaker 2: All all right, Buck the Cardinals, they're competitive, but the 1149 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 2: Seahawks get him twenty to ten. Jake Bobo with a touchdown, 1150 00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:37,400 Speaker 2: skelch Jake jag Bo with a touchdown. How about the 1151 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,319 Speaker 2: two rookies. Yeah, two rookie stepping up. 1152 00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,799 Speaker 3: I thought it was interesting about Bobo is how DK 1153 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 3: Metcalf has talked about he looked at Jake Bobo as 1154 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:47,360 Speaker 3: inspiration in terms of how to work and how to 1155 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:49,640 Speaker 3: prepare to play in the National Football League. 1156 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 4: He talked about Bobo has. 1157 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,560 Speaker 3: Been one of the guys that from a route running standpoint, 1158 00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 3: he's been impressed with, and so he watches how he's 1159 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,279 Speaker 3: been able to work himself into being a pro and 1160 00:50:58,320 --> 00:50:59,200 Speaker 3: how he's earned everything. 1161 00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 4: He's tried to take all some of that. 1162 00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:03,359 Speaker 3: I just think with the Seattle Seahawks, they're young guys 1163 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,239 Speaker 3: stepping up and playing you didn't get a chance to 1164 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:11,160 Speaker 3: see it, but Devin with his phone absolutely splattered somebody 1165 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 3: in the flat, just absolutely like didn't matter. 1166 00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 5: Yeah it was Rondell Moore, I think, I mean. 1167 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:22,319 Speaker 3: Just cut him down two inches, I mean, just destroyed him. 1168 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:24,680 Speaker 3: And the Seahawks didn't play great, but they ran the 1169 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:26,760 Speaker 3: ball effective. He kend of walk ahead over one hundred yards. 1170 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:29,840 Speaker 3: Geno was fine. The wide receivers continue to make plays. 1171 00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:33,400 Speaker 3: But this is a team that they're not good enough 1172 00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:35,600 Speaker 3: in my mind to be one of those top seeds, 1173 00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 3: one of those top four season in NFC. 1174 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:39,480 Speaker 4: But that could be a little problem in the tournament. 1175 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, they can win a game. They could win a 1176 00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 2: game in the tournament. I mean, I don't know. That's interesting, 1177 00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:48,600 Speaker 2: all right? The last one here, Buck, you can handle this. 1178 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:54,960 Speaker 2: Packers Broncos. I felt like, I don't know, refresh my memory. 1179 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 2: I feel like you were pro Packers early on in 1180 00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:01,520 Speaker 2: the year, thinking they're not going to skip a beat, 1181 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:04,200 Speaker 2: and yeah I was, will feel the same way about 1182 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:05,080 Speaker 2: their situation. 1183 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:05,640 Speaker 4: I was. 1184 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:08,560 Speaker 3: But you know what I'm gonna do, because I humble 1185 00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,160 Speaker 3: produced ne Bill, I'm gonna do like Nebill, I changed 1186 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:11,560 Speaker 3: my mind. 1187 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:12,439 Speaker 4: I don't feel it's. 1188 00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:15,359 Speaker 3: Right about that. I don't feel it's great about them 1189 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:18,240 Speaker 3: after watching them. It was a lot more in theory 1190 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:21,719 Speaker 3: more so than in practical application. I thought this team 1191 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 3: was gonna be able to run the football where Aaron 1192 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,959 Speaker 3: Jones and aj Dillon and they just don't play big 1193 00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:30,360 Speaker 3: boy ball, and the fact that somehow the Broncos allowed 1194 00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:32,879 Speaker 3: them to close the gap. The Broncos dominated the game 1195 00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,120 Speaker 3: for the most part. I mean, they were in control 1196 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,399 Speaker 3: of the game, and they let the Packers sneak back 1197 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 3: in This Packer team and we're learning And this is 1198 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:40,520 Speaker 3: what I was curious. 1199 00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:44,640 Speaker 4: I wanted to see what Matt Lafloyd looked like without. 1200 00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:47,359 Speaker 3: Having the four time MVP Aaron Rodgers, and it looked 1201 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:48,960 Speaker 3: like what I thought it would look like. He has 1202 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:50,759 Speaker 3: to figure out how to get this team with what 1203 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,120 Speaker 3: he has to play at a higher level. And they're 1204 00:52:53,160 --> 00:52:56,840 Speaker 3: just not playing well enough in terms of on defense 1205 00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:58,680 Speaker 3: and in the running game to be able to do it. 1206 00:52:58,719 --> 00:52:59,800 Speaker 4: With Jordan Levit quarterback. 1207 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:03,239 Speaker 1: They got to get their offensive line fixed. It's become 1208 00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:05,200 Speaker 1: an issue. Josh Meyer's got hurt in this game. We 1209 00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:08,920 Speaker 1: obviously we know Baktiari's what he's been dealing with It's 1210 00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:11,839 Speaker 1: it's not what they have going up there up front 1211 00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:13,480 Speaker 1: right now is not conducive to the way that they 1212 00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 1: want to play this game. 1213 00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:18,600 Speaker 2: Interesting, by the way, quick kids story. When my youngest 1214 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:21,000 Speaker 2: son was playing soccer for the first year, so I 1215 00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:25,280 Speaker 2: don't know, five six years old, they're have their first 1216 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:28,360 Speaker 2: game and the coaches, uh, got the team together, and 1217 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 2: so they've got the goalie jersey right, and they go, hey, 1218 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:33,920 Speaker 2: who's who wants who wants to play goalie?

I didn't want it. They didn't 1227 00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:58,120 Speaker 4: want that smoker goalie. 1228 00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:02,399 Speaker 2: Sounded like a great It's not like, hey, I get 1229 00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 2: it a cool jersey.
