They're calling it four hundred and sixty 19 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 1: seven ft, the fifth longest homer ever hit out of 20 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: Dodger Stadium. Unbelievable shot. Shout out to Fernando Tattoos of 21 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: the Padres. All right, let's get to the NFL and 22 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: a hell of a good game Thursday night. Your boy 23 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,199 Speaker 1: almost had the money line and the points, but of course, 24 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,559 Speaker 1: Urban Meyer, I just screw it up. And I'm sorry 25 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: to yell this early on a Friday morning, but holy hell, Urban, 26 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 1: what are you doing? Bro? How many times have we 27 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: talked about punt to lose five minutes left, tie game 28 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: on the road. You're winless and you're punting from midfield. 29 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: I don't I don't know how to help you at 30 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: this point in Urban. I've defended you throughout this frigging 31 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: one month of a train wreck start you've had this season. Okay, 32 00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: you finally get it together, and I knew you'd show up. 33 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence would show up on the road against the 34 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: Bengals who are have no business ever being favored by 35 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: seven and a half over anyone, and boom, Trevor Lawrence 36 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: get you a fourteen nothing lead. And I know some 37 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,399 Speaker 1: people are gonna harp on what happened right before the half. 38 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: I'll get to that shortly. I do not fault them 39 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: for that, but I do fault up for the end 40 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: of the game. So it's third and four from midfield. Okay, 41 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: there were just a shade under six minutes left Urban 42 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: Meyer on third and four. You know, they end up 43 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: having Trevor Lawrence having a roll out and he has 44 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: to chuck one deep incomplete. I didn't love the call there. 45 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: I would have and again, I'm not an offensive coordinator, shocking. 46 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: I as a podcast I talked about sports on uh 47 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 1: TV and digital for Fox. I don't I'm not an 48 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. I would have set it up so it 49 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: was four down territory. I would have done some kind 50 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: of run. You want to go read option, fine, you 51 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: want to go James Robinson into the line, fine, you 52 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: want to spread them wide, do something whatever forward momentum 53 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: to make it from fourth and third and four to 54 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: fourth and short. But he didn't even give himself that chance. 55 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: Fourth down, he just trots out the punter and you 56 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: knew it at the time. You're not getting the ball back. 57 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: They hadn't stopped Burrow at all in the second half. 58 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: Burrow was on a mission. The two possessions before, I'm sorry, 59 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: the three possessions before that for Joe Burrow ten seventy, 60 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 1: Tuddy twelve eighty six, Tuddy four sixty nine. You guessed 61 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: it touchdown, Bengals. I mean you hadn't stopped in the 62 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: entire second half, So what the hell are you doing 63 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: punting it back to them? I mean, worst case scenario, 64 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: absolute worst. You turn it over on downs with five 65 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: minutes left in there at midfield. Okay, they're scoring. It's 66 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: either a field goal or touchdown. They are scoring. You 67 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: were that the secondary could not guard. There was a 68 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: flag seemingly every every meaningful down in the second half. Well, 69 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 1: the as just say the final three drives against the 70 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: Bengals that Jack's just kept holding them. They couldn't hang 71 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: with Chase and Um even Audentate they had to hold 72 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: him and come on on that pivotal third down, like 73 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 1: really Audentate. They could not stop c j Uzama Usama. 74 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: I don't even know how you say his name. I've 75 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: got five fantasy teams between myself and my son, and 76 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: I kept checking. I'm like, nobody has C j Ozama 77 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: and I don't even know if he's taken in half 78 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: the league's um. He had two touchdowns. The couldn't guard him. 79 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: I mean, Miles Jack. What happened to that guy? Couldn't 80 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: guard anybody. I don't know if you could guard me 81 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 1: in coverage. He was a lost out there. Um, but 82 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: the bottom of Tyler Boyd was massive in the slot, 83 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: kept getting matched up with Miles Jack. May want to 84 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: change that, they want to go with an extra dB Urban, 85 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: I don't know, just consider it. And the Jacks are 86 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: now going four. The Jacksonville Jagoffs, who I thought could 87 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 1: win the division and get to the playoffs, are now 88 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: sitting at oh and four and they have the Titans 89 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: on deck. Folks, I know owen four is a death sentence. 90 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say they're only and done because they're seventeen games, 91 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 1: because the Colts are total trash and they're struggling. They 92 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: don't have a win yet. The Houston Texans we are 93 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 1: and we all know who they're. They're probably the worst 94 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: team in the league. And the Titans have a big 95 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: one this weekend. I will they may make a second 96 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: appearance in the Best Bets at the end of this podcast, 97 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: although I've talked about it a couple of times this 98 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 1: week on the pod. I know some people and we've 99 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: seen the number. Some people just tune in Fridays for 100 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: the football picks. Uh, if you heard Rufus Peabody yesterday, 101 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: don't just come for the picks, learn how to fish. 102 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 1: I think the Jets can take down the Titans, which 103 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: opens the door to Jacksonville, Tennessee next week. Massive game 104 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 1: at home for the Jags. Now, if you uh, if 105 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: the Titans prevail over the Jets, they are a touchdown favorite, 106 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: you've basically got the Titans season. I'm sorry, the Jaguar 107 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: season next week against the Titans. Although I don't know. 108 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: Rob g probably thinks the Jags are toasts. Anyway, I was. 109 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: I was impressed with the spirited fight. I just hated 110 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: what Urban Meyer did late. Um, you could make all 111 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: the Stevie Wonder jokes. Could see you know, he couldn't 112 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 1: he could see that coming. Trevor Lawrence has now suffered 113 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: four losses. He um, he lost two games in high 114 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: school and he lost uh two in college at Clemson. 115 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: None in the regular season, by the way. Okay, he's 116 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: now owing for in the NFL. And Trevor Lawrence was fine. 117 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: I thought he was pretty solid, got through the ball 118 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: away when he needed to. Um, you know Ran, Well, Uh, 119 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: it's just disappointed. I mean he lost DJ Shark on 120 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 1: like the third play of the game ankle rolled up on. 121 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 1: So it was basically the Lavisca channel show young kid 122 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: out of Colorado who's a nice player. Um, but like 123 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: Marvin Jones, Tavon Austin Dan Arnold who they picked up 124 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: like forty eight hours ago in a trade, Like, I mean, 125 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: this is Coakes, Trevor Lawrence doesn't have anything they missed. 126 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: Travis E. T n Um another wide receiver whose name 127 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: escapes me is out injured. It's just listen, man, it's 128 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: possible that I was very very very very wrong on 129 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars. And you know what, I'll take that 130 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: l if I was. Um, it's by the way, it 131 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: sounds like DJ Shark has a fractured ankle, so don't 132 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: think we'll be seeing him anytime soon. Um. I don't know, 133 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: rob g. I I'm not willing to wave the white 134 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 1: flag on the Jags yip, but holy hell, it's close. Wow, 135 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: you're still not really the wave the white flag on 136 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: Because I really do think eight or nine wins can 137 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: win this division. A losing record will win the division. 138 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: That's that's a Bolth strategy, Gottonlet's see if it pays 139 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: off for him. Um let me just say that was 140 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: my favorite game to watch this season, not involving my 141 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: races who favorite Thursday Night or favorite o favorite game 142 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: to watch, And the reason being is I thought both 143 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,119 Speaker 1: of those quarterbacks were slinging it last night. Like I thought, 144 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: both of them showed you exactly why they were the 145 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: number one picks in their respective drafts. Now, the final 146 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: score wasn't like some massive shootout. It wasn't, you know, 147 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, Tom Brady, you know, because those guys are 148 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: are operating at a different level with different skill position players. 149 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: And to be quite honest, against worst defenses, that opening 150 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 1: weekend or the opening Thursday Night game with the Cowboys 151 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: defense and the Bucks defense was some of the worst 152 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: defensive play I've seen this NFL season. I mean, this 153 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: is the defense last night. Run It wasn't it wasn't 154 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: ye know, it wasn't great. But those two guys, you know, 155 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: up until like you mentioned the punt decision, which was 156 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: I agree with you, it was he got a tight 157 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 1: took his and I don't think you could have that 158 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: kind of especially I think it part of what happened 159 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 1: in the first half and his decision to go for 160 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: in the goal line I think may have factored into 161 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: this one. Was like, hey, we went forward, didn't make it, 162 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: and he got scared the second time around when he 163 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: was forced to a decision. But I mean, Joe Burrow 164 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: just in the second half, all right, I know the 165 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: first half he was kind of slow. But in the 166 00:08:54,800 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: second half, seventeen of twenty two fifty three, two touch ounds, 167 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: final drive five or five, six, eight yards, like he 168 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: was so in command and so in control. And I 169 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 1: knew he was accurate, as I remember that from college. 170 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: I didn't realize his arm was as good as we 171 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 1: saw last night. I mean, some of the throws that 172 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: he was making, it was just like wow, and this 173 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: guy is what is this his seventh eighth start in 174 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: the NFL. You know, Trevor Lawrence, like you said, zero 175 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: weapons around him. I think Marvin Jones, uh, you know, 176 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: at best is probably a good number two receiver or 177 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: an average number two receiver and a good team. And 178 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 1: even with him with nothing around him, he was dealing 179 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: to And so I think with what we saw last 180 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: night that the NFL is in a good place with 181 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: those two guys, assuming these franchises which have a poor 182 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 1: track where don't let them down. But I really yeah, 183 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 1: I mean Burrow Burrow was incredible. I'll give you that, 184 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: but again, consider the opponent, you know, and it last 185 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: week he did not have to a s T. J. 186 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: Watt So I mean, as Steelers did not have a 187 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: sack first time in like seventy five games or some 188 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 1: ridiculous stat But um, let's quickly go back to that 189 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: goal line call. So you're up fourteen nothing, you're on 190 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: the one yard line. One, there's like a minute left, 191 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: third and goal. I you know, uh, they should all 192 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,719 Speaker 1: gets tackled at the one. Looked like maybe he was 193 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: close to getting in, but no, fourth and one. You 194 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: got one minute left on the clock. You're up fourteen 195 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: nothing on the road, you're a winless team. You kick 196 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: a field goal there. It's like, I mean, really, I'm 197 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: fine with going for if you can't get one yard. 198 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: I didn't love the play call because they had Trevor 199 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: Lawrence's shotgun. So you know, and Trevor Lawrence is like 200 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: a six five guy. You would think if he's under center, 201 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 1: he just leans forward and he should be able to 202 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: get a yard, but at a shotgun, he had to 203 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: He waited like a split second for the whole it 204 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: was there, but the linebacker filled it. And you know, 205 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 1: like you run through a linebacker at wake Forest or Syracuse, 206 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: right if you're Trevor Lawrence. But this is the NFL. 207 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,599 Speaker 1: You know, he couldn't get by the linebacker and he 208 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: got stuffed at the one, and you know, you still 209 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: go on to the half of fourteen. Nothing a little deflating, 210 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: but Rob, I'm sorry, I'm not kicking the field goal there. 211 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: I'm fine with the touchdown. Totally disagree with you. And 212 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,559 Speaker 1: the only reason I say that is because they had 213 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: lost eighteen straight games up until this point. All right, 214 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: under normal, under normal circumstances. Hey, your team's oh and two. 215 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: I went three on the season, looking to get a spark, 216 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: you know whatever, cool, you're you're you know, you're one 217 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: and two. Whatever. These guys have not tasted the squeat 218 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: liquor of Victory nectar whatever. You know, there's liquor in 219 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: Jacksonville since since to quote, to quote my friend Rob Parker, 220 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 1: since Moby Dick was a guppy. Like that's how long 221 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: it's been since they've won a football game, and in 222 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: that situation, you take the point where you can get him. 223 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: You have all the momentum in the world. I don't 224 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: think you suddenly lose a momentum being up seventeen, nothing 225 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: like I know twenty one sounds better, but the way 226 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: that they were playing, and you know, of course this 227 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 1: game comes down to a field goal, so you wish 228 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: you had those three points back. But I think that's 229 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: easy to stay. But like, if you hold him, if 230 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: you hold him, though, hey we held him. There only 231 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: three scores, you know, the seventeen, I feel like that's 232 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: a win for the defense. If they don't go for it, 233 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: it feels like you're playing scared. I mean, we've robbed 234 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: how many times in primetime recently? Have we seen big 235 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: balls hardball? Right? Uh? Not prime time? But the Chargers fourth, 236 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,719 Speaker 1: excuse me, fourth and nine, Stanley's like, we're going for it. 237 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: I don't care about the penalty. I just think you've 238 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 1: got to be aggressive in the modern NFL because offense 239 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: rules and nobody can really stop anybody, and got the 240 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,439 Speaker 1: referees throwing all these flags. Context being is both of 241 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: those instances of you barb going for it we're against 242 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahones and the Chiefs Joe Burrows in that class. 243 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: You just said you know what you got to did 244 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, and that the defense is going against I 245 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: don't want to rehash this again, but know Tom Brady 246 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: who hasn't exactly been lighting up the best defenses for 247 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: his dats. But Joe Burrow comeback season completion yards, nine touchdowns, 248 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: quarterback rating of one fourteen. Wow, that's pretty Congrats to 249 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow three and one. Zach Taylor. Here's the problem, uh, 250 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: and I don't want to you know, I gotta Bengal said. 251 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 1: We used to live in Pennsylvania and my my kid 252 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: went to school with this girl and they became good friends. 253 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: And then her dad is a big Bengals fan, so 254 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: he's always you know, we're friends on I g He's 255 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: the only Bengals fan I really know.

I guess a rookie coach and a 259 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 1: rookie quarterback and you're down fourteen nothing at the half. 260 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: Don't tell me, Zach Taylor brought him back. That's a 261 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: team that was not prepared. I just disappointed.

Cliff Kingsbury cannot He's been put in 287 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: a body bag by McVeigh. McVeigh has never lost to 288 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: him three oh and one against the spread. Kingsbury is 289 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: basically afraid of McVeigh. He coaches scared. I'm not even 290 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: kidding because I bet this team before, I'm afraid to 291 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: do it. Sharp money has come in. We'll talk about 292 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: it in Best Bet. Cardinals Rams is the best game 293 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: of Sunday, and I know the storylines are great. By 294 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: the way, Rob Panther's Cowboys, Hello, that's that's a really 295 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: good game. Like the Cowboys are legit now, Um, you 296 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: can't make a case for like Washington Falcus, but I 297 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: do like Brady and Belichick obviously, the storylines galore. Are 298 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: they gonna be friendly at half at midfield after the game. 299 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: Will there be anything beforehand? Is there gonna be any 300 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: ship talking? Probably not. What also interests me, did you 301 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,040 Speaker 1: hear I guess there was like a Howard ster In 302 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: clip somebody sent it to me, uh where Brady talked 303 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: about leaving the Patriots and he did it over the 304 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: phone with Belichick. And I'm like, I don't maybe I 305 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: had heard that before, God or whatever. Um, twenty years 306 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: together and you basically tell them you're gonna move on 307 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 1: over the phone. I'm surprised by that. Now. Brady quickly 308 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: explained to Howard Stern, like, hey, you know it was 309 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: this night and we had this and that in the 310 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: It sounds kind of excuse ladon, Um, you know, twenty 311 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: years together. Can you imagine your employer or your boss 312 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: you've been working together in lockstaff and you just bailed 313 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: with him over the phone or something like that. I 314 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: just not totally chicken chip, But we know the story. 315 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: Seth Wickersham, who's got the book, talked about it like 316 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 1: Brady was disrespected, he was sick of being treated like 317 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: a child by Belichick. You could only take so much 318 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: of that crap. Brady took it. He kept winning super Bowls. 319 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: He's like, what do I care? I'm winning super Bowls. 320 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 1: I'm m v P blah blah blah. And he just said, 321 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: you know what, I guess everybody has like a breaking point, 322 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: and that was his UM. So, I don't know, Rob, 323 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: I'm very excited for the game. I'm gonna watch it, 324 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 1: no doubt. I'm not definitely not doing anything Sunday Night, 325 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: although I may have an awesome story for you guys 326 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: on Monday, an awesome story on a personnel. But well, Rob, 327 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 1: where's your type of level for this game? Honestly? I 328 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: mean I, by the way, I totally agree with you, 329 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: there's at least three games that much rather watch than 330 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 1: than Sunday Night's game. UM scale of one to ten, 331 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,120 Speaker 1: maybe like a six point eight, maybe a seven tops, 332 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 1: you know, And it's just it's three reasons. Number one, 333 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: I don't think that there's as much bad blood between 334 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 1: Tom Brady and Bill Belichick as people think there are. 335 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: You know, I think I think that that extra year 336 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: away while he was in Tampa and him winning the 337 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: Super Bowl gives him all the self gratification that he needs. 338 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: And you can tell just by how complimentary that they've 339 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: been of each other in the media. The only barbs 340 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 1: that we've seen traded in any kind of way is 341 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: Belichick and Arians where they say that, hey, you stole 342 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: my all that, you stole my offense, and you stole 343 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 1: my offense whatever, you know. So I don't think that 344 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: they hate each other in any kind of way. I 345 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: don't even think they dislike each other. Like this is 346 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,959 Speaker 1: not Shock and Kobe, where when they first met, like 347 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 1: you know, there was of camera following them just to 348 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 1: see if they would dap up in the pregame. Like 349 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: I promise you that in warmups, you're gonna see Belichick 350 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: walk over to Brady or vice versa. They're gonna chat, 351 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna smile, they're gonna, you know, put their hands 352 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 1: on each other's butts and they're like, hey, good good 353 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: luck today, blah blah blah. So that's number one. Number two, 354 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: the Bucks are clearly the better team. Like if this 355 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 1: was any kind of legitimate competition like you mentioned Arizona 356 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: and the Rams, where you're like, hey, these two teams 357 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: are are pretty evenly matched. They could see each other 358 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 1: again in the playoffs. I'm excited to watch it. This 359 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: is you know, lamar Jackson versus Pat Mahomes. You know, 360 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 1: say what you want about who's better, but they're both 361 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 1: upper echelon quarterbacks. This is was it? Seven times Super 362 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: Bowl champion Tom Brady and making his fourth career start. 363 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 1: Mac Jones, Well, let me just a different angle. If Brady, 364 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: let's say he puts it on him and they win 365 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: forty Belichicks now one in three, probably not a toward 366 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I know it's early, but at one in three, 367 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: Mac Jones, uh, James White's a good weapon on that team. 368 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: Like their upcoming schedule after the Texans, who they'll beat, Cowboys, Jets, Chargers, Panthers, 369 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: Brown's like you could see a path where Belichick is 370 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: not going to the playoffs and then Rob and again, 371 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: maybe I'm looking too forward, but we're headed to territory 372 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: of not only did Brady win the divorce, but do 373 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: we start to question Belichick a little bit? And I 374 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: know that's unfair and it's way eily, but the Cam 375 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,679 Speaker 1: Newton experiment failed. He got his own quarterback. I know 376 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: it was a rookie. It didn't work. Like Belichicks down 377 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: pushing what seventies seventy one years old? Like I'm not. 378 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 1: I'm not. You can't question him. His success is unparalleled. 379 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 1: But do we start question him, Well, you know Tom 380 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: mattered more, like I personally already think Tom mattered more. 381 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: But oh, there's still a lot of people in defense. 382 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 1: Oh he went to a loaded team in Tampa. Okay, Well, 383 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 1: Belichick's had two years, Like, how many years is it 384 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: gonna take him to get back to the playoffs? I 385 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: don't know. Is that looking too harsh? On on? On one? Yes? 386 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 1: And I think the only people who would try to 387 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,480 Speaker 1: discredit Bill Belichick are people who are Tom Brady fanboys. 388 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: Because if you want to split if you want to 389 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:33,439 Speaker 1: split up the Patriots era with Brady and Belichick, the 390 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 1: first three Super Bowls were Belichick, the last three or 391 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: two and a half were Brady. Okay, the early part 392 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: of that dynasty was a strictly defensive team. Tom, just 393 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 1: don't turn the ball over, don't do anything stupid. We're 394 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: gonna be in position to win every single game. And 395 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: it comes to the Super Bowl. Give Tom Brady credit. 396 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: He's great in the two minute row, but he was 397 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 1: not never the reason why they want those Super bowls 398 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 1: early on, later on and towards the back end, of 399 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: his his time there. Absolutely, absolutely it was Tom Brady 400 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: because then they had shifted into an offensive team. I 401 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:13,719 Speaker 1: would argue that I give Tom Brady more credit for 402 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: the loss against Philly and the Super Bowl than I 403 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: do the victory over the Rams, because the way hold on, 404 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 1: hold on. You give Tom Brady more more credit for 405 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,359 Speaker 1: the way he played against Philadelphia when they lost in 406 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 1: the Philly Special Super Bowl versus the one he did 407 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: win against the Rams, because that was a complete Bill 408 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 1: Belichick undressing of arguably that one of the greatest offenses 409 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 1: ever in the Rams. That was a that was a 410 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 1: defense won that Super Bowl, not Tom Brady. I would 411 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: add in Philadelphia that Eagles go look into the skill 412 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: position players. Nobody great. Belichick had two weeks to prepare 413 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: for Nick friggin folks, and he got tortured for like 414 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,679 Speaker 1: four yards or whatever. I mean. Peterson will be coaching 415 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 1: again soon simply because of that Super Bowl win. Everybody 416 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 1: from his half I feel, got coaching jobs somewhere, right, Like, 417 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, like I think that Tom Brady 418 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: deserves way more respect and admiration for that game than 419 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: he does for the sixth Super Bowl. Yeah. The problem 420 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: with Brady is. There's no Lebron Jordan debate. There just 421 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: is no. There's no Montana Brady debate. I don't care 422 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: that your guy Rob Parker wants to come with it 423 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: that that's silly nobody. There's just nothing. There's nothing there. 424 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: Brady is the best. And it's tough because then you 425 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,679 Speaker 1: look at the photos of Brady and he's this Doughey 426 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:33,360 Speaker 1: dude who runs like a four to forty and he's 427 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: the greatest athlete in football history. Well know, he's not 428 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: the greatest athlete. Is the best quarterback? Well? Is he 429 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:38,919 Speaker 1: the best? Is he better than Aaron Rogers? Will know 430 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 1: he's the winning is okay? So then it's just it's 431 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,679 Speaker 1: not as fun of it. Well, I I know that 432 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: we started off by talking about the excitement of the 433 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: game and everything like that. Here's my last reason, and 434 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: I think this is one that my rufflesome feathers. The 435 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 1: why I'm not super excited about this game is the 436 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: Patriots fans are gonna shower him with love when he's there, 437 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: like when there's a big, you know, coming home game 438 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,199 Speaker 1: or the revenge game, like this is being hyped up 439 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 1: Brady versus Belichick. You know, what I'd like to see 440 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: is a little bit of animosity. You know. What I'd 441 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 1: like to see is I would not rule as Lebron 442 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: coming back to Cleveland and that hostile environment, and I'm 443 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: fully expecting a Peyton Manning esque returned to Indy. Where 444 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: as soon as he gets introduced, it's a like like, 445 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: I know that that's that. I would expect that. But 446 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 1: that's part of the reason why I'm not super excited 447 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: about it, because I want drama. I want something that's 448 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: gonna really grab my attention. And it's like, we got 449 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,640 Speaker 1: two guys who respect each other, don't really dislike each other. 450 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: You got one team that's clearly better than the other. 451 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: And last, but not least, you have a fan base 452 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: that is going to be so excited to see him. 453 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: I don't even think they're gonna care if the Bucks 454 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: whoop their ass. Okay, how about this, how's this for excitement? Um, 455 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: they find a way to boo Bill Belichick? Oh, I 456 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: would like that. I don't think they got the balls 457 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: for that. But um, you could boo him when he 458 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 1: comes out at the beginning, But then how do you 459 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: boo the coach with he's with the team. Usually Um, 460 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think booing Belichick would take some 461 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: balls because if you think he's ordinary with the media. Now, 462 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:19,880 Speaker 1: I love that question. I don't know if you've seen 463 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 1: a rob where somebody asked him, what do you think 464 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 1: of mac Jones is interceptions against the Saints and he 465 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 1: just like hempdon Hodd for like ten seconds and kind 466 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 1: of made those grunt noises. I was like, whatever you 467 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 1: think or something would have. Can you imagine if they 468 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: boot his ass and they get beat like part of 469 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: me once Brady forty Belichick six or something insane like that. 470 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 1: I don't think that will happen. Uh. And I'm not 471 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 1: making a part of the best Bets, but why don't 472 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 1: we get to it? It's a huge card in the 473 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: NFL and college football. Here are your best bets.

Here on Straight Fire, 481 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: Last week was good, not as good as Week two. 482 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:22,160 Speaker 1: Um Week one was great. I think my issue this 483 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: week is there's so many road favorites that you've got 484 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 1: to be careful you. I mean, like Kansas City is 485 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: one of my bigger bets this weekend. Their favored by seven. 486 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: I absolutely love them, but seven is a big number 487 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: and they have the Bills next week. Now, I don't 488 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 1: think they'll be looking ahead to the Bills when you 489 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: factor in that they are one and two and are 490 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: coming off a loss. But again again, and I explained 491 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,360 Speaker 1: this to my Fox Sports column. They turned the ball 492 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: over four times against the Chargers, and the Chargers still 493 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: needed to convert forth and nine to beat them. They 494 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 1: converted three of the Sorry, they had three of those 495 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 1: turnovers in Chargers territory. So the Chiefs are gonna move 496 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: the ball. They should have hilate the Eagles. This is 497 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: the NFL, and not everybody gets annihilated. But I have 498 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, and I know a lot of people aren't 499 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: gonnait the hear But I said this Monday, I got 500 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,120 Speaker 1: plus nine with the Jets. Now, there was some juice 501 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: bonus one seventeen, but I love the Jets. Here some 502 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 1: of the numbers are staggering on teams that come off 503 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: of a shutout um rebounding the next week. So obviously 504 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 1: we had Miami doing that. Two weeks ago. They got 505 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 1: blanked by Buffalo, bounced back at them against the Raiders. 506 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: Nice cover. That was a bad sweat. But teams that 507 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: get shut out the following week there twenty one and 508 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 1: six against the spread in the last six years. I mean, folks, 509 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: I know you gotta hold your nose and take the Jets, 510 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: but a lot of professional money on the Jets. It 511 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 1: was nine Sunday night, it's now seven. I would not 512 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: be shocked if it's six and a half game day. 513 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: And remember, even if you're like Jason, you're crazy, You're crazy. 514 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 1: Look at the Titans injury report. Okay, well see what 515 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 1: happens today Friday, big day obviously, but let's see what 516 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: happens with Julio Jones and A J. Brown if both 517 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 1: of them are out. Go look at the depth chart 518 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 1: for the Titans were seavers. I know the Jet secondary 519 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 1: stinkson May is hurt and he's out, but ain't nobody 520 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 1: scares you on that Titans offense and the Jets run 521 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: defense is not terrible tenth uh in opponent yards for play. 522 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: I'm telling you I like the Jets. I have a 523 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: little on the money line. It could be heartbreaking like 524 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: the Bengals, but I took him and I'm gonna take 525 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: him in the contest. I'm looking hard at the Giants 526 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 1: and the contest there's seven and a half. UM. It's 527 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 1: just tough to stomach. The Giants are just as a 528 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: Jets fan, a and be um. You know Daniel Dimes. 529 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: You're putting your hard earned money on Daniel Dimes. Well, 530 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: I know he's good on the road ten and four 531 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: against the spread. Um, but the Giants always find a 532 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 1: wind way to blow games. Now, I do not like 533 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 1: the Saints a lot this year. You guys know that 534 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: going back to the preseason and again Jameis Winston. You 535 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,199 Speaker 1: can hype him while you want three games yet to 536 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 1: throw for a buck fifty. Sean Payton just does not 537 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: trust him. Now. Saints could be down too offensive line 538 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 1: in the left tackle in the center. You've got a 539 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 1: monitor that that's very important to watch because if they're 540 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: down to offensive lineman, the Giants can They're actually not 541 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 1: bad at it to run. If you strip out the 542 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon's seventy yard like freak late touchdown run in 543 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 1: the opener. The Giants run defense has been very good, 544 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 1: very good run defense. I think they got a chance 545 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,119 Speaker 1: to win out right, but I think the safe bet 546 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: is to take the seven and a half. Fun fact 547 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: from the Fox research team. Giants on the road in 548 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: their last twenty games as dogs seventeen and three against 549 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,880 Speaker 1: the spread. They can't get hype on the road at 550 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,719 Speaker 1: home for Joe Judge, but on the road, yeah, we 551 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 1: will show up. Um. I took a little nibble at 552 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 1: the Bears plus two and a half looking at them 553 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: in the contest. If you guys remember two weeks ago, 554 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: Bears are hosting the Bengals. Everybody in their mom on 555 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 1: the Bengals line goes through three. I'm like, wait a minute, 556 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 1: don't you have to take the Bears. I didn't Bears win. 557 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 1: They were up seventeen nothing in that game and win 558 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: and they covered. Folks, you're talking about the Lions. They 559 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 1: are a public dog, which is like a flashing red 560 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: siren to avoid them. I'm telling you, just don't back 561 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: the Lions. I know they played tough and they got 562 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: the number thirty two rated defense in the league. Just 563 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: file that way. Oh Jason, how they stopped the Ravens. Well, 564 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 1: you know, Ravens are kind of beat up. I told 565 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: you the story about Lamar Jackson um with the COVID vaccine, 566 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 1: and there was a Lamar Jackson shoulder incident. He's miss 567 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: practiced twice this week. I like the Bears, Guys, Um, Chiefs, Jets, Giants, Bears, 568 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: who else do I like? It's weird because I like 569 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: a lot this week. I haven't loved a ton in 570 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. Um, you know this is 571 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: this is a tough one. The Denver Broncos or a 572 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: team I gotta watch now. The injury report today is 573 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: gonna be big, especially for their offensive line because they 574 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: are really banged up. They lost Hamdler Um. Uh, he's 575 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: gone for the season, which is which is brutal. Now 576 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: you and without Jerry Judy, you've got like Patrick and Um, 577 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: Courtland Sutton and listen. The raven secondary ain't bad another 578 00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: that Marcus Peters um. But what's more important for the 579 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: Broncos is this offensive line. They got a Both of 580 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: their guards have not practiced this week. I know the 581 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: Ravens run defense is not great. Um, they're kind of 582 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: going on borrowed time here. Uh, the old school Ravens. 583 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: But what do they like to do? They blitz more 584 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:14,479 Speaker 1: than anybody else in the league. Well, I think Tampa's 585 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: number one this year, but they love to blitz. That 586 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: could be a problem with the Teddy Bridgewater numbers. If 587 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: you guys have a Pro Football Focus account, go check 588 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:26,760 Speaker 1: up Teddy Bridgewater under pressure this year. I'll call it 589 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: up here at a sec. Um, he's just phenomenal on 590 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: when you try to blitz him and get him under pressure. 591 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: But on the other side of the football, the Baltimore Ravens. 592 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: Have you looked at their injury report? Obviously, Lamar Jackson 593 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 1: didn't practice Wednesday Thursday. You gotta starting safety did not 594 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 1: practice Wednesday Thursday. Ronnie Stanley has not practiced this week. Um, 595 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: he's one of their tackles. Um, who's the other guy, 596 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: Derek Wolfe one of their better defensive ends. Brandon Williams 597 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 1: there run stuffing nose tackle. Now, he's old, he's a veteran, 598 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 1: so he could just be resting. But you really got 599 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: to check these injury reports. I don't want to shot 600 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: town to um like in the weeds. But I mean, 601 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: I'm a nerd where Friday night I'm checking the injury 602 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 1: reports Saturday morning. It's one of my top things to 603 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: do before I put in the beds in the contest, 604 00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: like you're gonna try to make some money on this, 605 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: go back and listen to uh, the guy who David Baker, 606 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: who won the contest last year and got second in 607 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 1: the other one, and you know, go listen to Rufus, 608 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: Like you gotta put in some work here. It's not fun, 609 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: but it's a labor love. I like the Broncos there. 610 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 1: I I don't know if I'll um taking them the 611 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: contest because the offensive line injuries. Um, but the other 612 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 1: ones I'm looking at him, looking at Miami. I don't 613 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: know if I can pull the trigger on that. The 614 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: culture kind of desperate. You get like a Jacksonville sense 615 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 1: with this team, like come on, are we that bad? 616 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: Can we hang in there? It's not like Miami's great. Um. 617 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: I really like Cleveland, but I'm holding off just because 618 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,960 Speaker 1: of the Zimmer at home factor. He's really really good 619 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 1: at home, especially as an underdog. But I do like 620 00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: Cleveland a lot. They're definitely not touching the Buffalo sevent 621 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: and a half point spread, and um the one that 622 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: I know you guys are gonna want me to pick 623 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: Tampa in New England. But um, I'm actually trying to 624 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 1: make money and win a contest, and that's a game 625 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: I want no part of. Not when like gamblers are 626 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 1: on Tom Brady, There's just no way because you know 627 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen game day. Uh, it's the Sunday Night 628 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 1: Chase game and everybody in their mom's gonna be loading 629 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: up on Tom Brady and Tampa. Well what happens usually 630 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: not always obviously when the house needs somebody bad. I 631 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 1: mean I could see it happening. But I will say this, 632 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 1: I kind of sort of like the Pittsburgh Steelers again, 633 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: one more injury report. You gotta check t J. Watt. 634 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: Let's make sure he's a go. Uh Claypool all of 635 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 1: a sudden turned up on the injury report. I know 636 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: this because I do fantasy football. Um, I know Pittsburgh 637 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 1: is like, what are you doing? Are you crazy? They 638 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 1: just lost at home to Sincy. Mike Tomlin as an 639 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 1: underdog is where you want to put your money thirty 640 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: eight nineteen two Before he does, I mean he gets 641 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,360 Speaker 1: his guys really hyped to Hey, it's also against the world. 642 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 1: Nobody thinks we could do this, and they go out 643 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 1: with their hands on fire, hands head whatever. Both uh. 644 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 1: And they pulled the upset or they covered the spread. 645 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 1: And in the opener I had them against Buffalo. Tomlin 646 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: was a dog and they needed some special teams help, 647 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 1: but they pulled it off. So I would look hard 648 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: at Pittsburgh. It's overall what I think a good card 649 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: You noticed I didn't mention the a f C West teams. 650 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: I like the Cardinals a lot. But the number that 651 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: I told you guys on Monday six is long gone. 652 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 1: It's four. So just be a little bit careful there. Um. 653 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 1: And on the college front, man I obviously laid rufus 654 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 1: his Michigan state bet Um.
