17
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: another crazy week of football. Mitchell, Like, what is going on, Richard?

18
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: We talked about it last week. Lay up line, bounce

19
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 1: back game, gimme game, right, There's no gimmes in football,

20
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: but this was a gimme game. Tampa Bay Buccaneers firing

21
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 1: up against the Carolina Panthers. Richard, they lose twenty one

22
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 1: to three. You tell me what's going on? Is it

23
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: time to sound the alarm in Tampa? I mean, they

24
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: better start sounding something. I mean, we got him next

25
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: week TNF and that game isn't a gimme. You know,

26
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: they got to Baltimore Ravens, who's coming off a hard,

27
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: fat division win, and they just don't have any answers,

28
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,199
Speaker 1: any red zone answers. I mean Tom Brady still throws

29
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: for for two ninety. You know, Mike Evans drops a

30
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 1: uh look would be touchdown early in the game, and

31
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: he said it after the game that he just felt

32
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: like that deflated the team, and he was right. I

33
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: mean it's crazy because you know in Carolina, they're sitting

34
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: there like, hey, we're gonna get the number one draft pick. Cool,

35
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: the season's over. We lost star coach like they packed

36
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: it in, they mailed it in. You lose three to

37
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: a team that that has mailed it in, Like she's like,

38
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 1: I don't understand. It's It's only Brady's third game with

39
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: the Bucks scoring three points or less. He had two

40
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: in two seasons. With the Patriots, and my goodness, there

41
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 1: are a lot of concerns. P J. Walker played a

42
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 1: really solid game. Sixteen seventy seven, two touchdowns, and they

43
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 1: ran the ball well Deonta Foreman fifteen rushers one eighteen

44
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: two catches to seven yards. But my goodness, Richard, this

45
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 1: game surprised everyone, including Las Vegas. And when it surprises

46
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: Las Vegas, you know that's a shell shock. I was

47
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 1: reading an article after the game at a prominent casino

48
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas. Only four patrons Vet Carolina plus thirteen,

49
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 1: Only four, rich All the money was on the Bucks

50
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: to cover big time. They blow him out by eighteen points.

51
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: It wasn't even a thought to bet against the Bucks.

52
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: I mean, who who in their right mind would have

53
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 1: bet against them even plus thirteen. You're like, Okay, maybe

54
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: they don't beat him about thirteen. Maybe it's the NFL

55
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: and other team plays hard. They beat him by team.

56
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: But there's nobody that expected the Panthers to realistically win

57
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: this game. If anybody had that on a part lay,

58
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 1: please send me your number of info because you got

59
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: some inside information and I need a hold of it.

60
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: I got another game for you, rich We're sounding the

61
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: alarms in Tampa Bay. Are we sounding alarms in another

62
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: bay up north, the Green Bay area? Rich Mitchell, you

63
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: better be sounding alarms. You better be sounding them loud

64
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 1: and clear. In Green Bay. I mean, they they're concerned early,

65
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: but then it's always like you got a rod, like

66
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: like relax, you know, ri E l A X. Relax,

67
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: like you got a rod. It's gonna be okay. You're

68
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: three and four. You just lost to the Washington Commanders.

69
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: No offense to the Washington Commanders, but they lost their

70
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: starting quarterback. They're on to their backup quarterback. They're not

71
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 1: spected to do a lot. I'm guessing Vegas took a

72
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: blood bath on this, took a bath on this. Taylor

73
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: Heineke comes out and says, hey, I can get the

74
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: job done too. Two touchdown three, But Brian Robinson making

75
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: a big impact again. Twenty Russians seventy three yards to catch,

76
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 1: thirteen yards and Terry McLaurin going off. So it's like, hey,

77
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: what's going on in Green Bay? Antonio Gibson ahead of

78
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 1: day as well. I mean, the Commander's offense looked pretty good.

79
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: I mean, we haven't seen this in a while. We

80
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: haven't seen it all season. They were putting spoorints on

81
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: the board. They took a big lead early. I mean

82
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: green Bay made it a game late. You expect him

83
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: to with a rod, but they couldn't overcome. And it's

84
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 1: it's amazing to me, and we talked about it last week, Rich,

85
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: the parody in this this league right now, I don't know.

86
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: It just seems to be more than than the last

87
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: few seasons. We've seen teams that we thought were bottom

88
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: dwellers that'd be useless. You know, top five picks beat

89
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 1: up on these teams that have have big names. I mean,

90
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: the green Bay Packers have a big name. They've had

91
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: big name for fifteen twenty years. Rich, Is it just

92
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: the falling of a giant or or what is truly

93
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: going on right now? It's it's it's everything, you know,

94
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 1: it's parody, it's losing players, it's you know, the league

95
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,160
Speaker 1: has to always come back around. You know, everybody's got

96
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 1: to have a chance in this league. That's why people

97
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: watch the National Football League. But if you're the green

98
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,039
Speaker 1: Bay Packer fans, you're just sitting there sick because you

99
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 1: had chances so still win this game. You still have

100
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: chances with everything that went wrong, you still got a

101
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: muffed pump by Marie Rogers, you had the illegal contact

102
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: that offset a fumble return touchdown by Eric Stokes. I

103
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: mean you're sitting there like, bro, everything that could going

104
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: wrong is going wrong. And look, look look at Minnesota.

105
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: They're five and one, and if they're six and one again,

106
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 1: Dan Rodgers Invitational is not what it wants was It's

107
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,800
Speaker 1: it's over early. It is over early. Rich. I mean,

108
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 1: we talked about there's no need to revisit it, but

109
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: we talked about I feel like on every single podcast,

110
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 1: the Green Day Packers wide receiving corps is a major,

111
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 1: major problem, and I feel like it's wilful negligence Rich

112
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: going into this season expecting what they expected from this

113
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: receiving corps with pretty much slim to no experience and

114
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: having a Hall of Fame legend. And Aaron Rodgers, I mean,

115
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: he's got a lot left in the tank, but he's

116
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 1: got no one to give it to. And enough enough.

117
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: I mean, Synodell, Belcolm Jr. Do your best to come

118
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 1: back in this division and go from there. They're gonna

119
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: have to get desperate, you know, because their their defense

120
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: is playing relatively well, you look up in your life.

121
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: I mean, they're battling every week area. It's not like

122
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: they're getting blown out, but it's like, you need points,

123
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: and where are you going to find them? I don't

124
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 1: have answers for you right now. They better be get

125
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: very active because the trade deadline is coming up fast

126
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,640
Speaker 1: and they have not made movement yet. And if they don't,

127
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: I guarantee you there's a very unhappy and wearing number

128
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 1: twelve in Green Bay, Wisconsin. And that's no question. But

129
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 1: what about the Niners. No way, Like you just got

130
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. The offense is supposed to be buzzing like

131
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: in the defense is is a powerhouse, and you know

132
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: you're getting guys back from injury, and of course you

133
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: know they're got to work their way back in. But

134
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 1: I just expected a better game than this, and expectfully.

135
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: You you have a game where Jimmy Garoppolo throws for

136
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: three oh three and two touchdowns and you throw an

137
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: interception too, but you're expected aid they might have got

138
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 1: this one. And the point was at the close of

139
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: the first half. And when you're driving down the forty nights,

140
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: you're driving down have an opportunity to score right before

141
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: the half, and Jimmy seemingly throws up what looks like

142
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 1: a gift. I mean, it was a pretty easy interception,

143
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 1: you know, I know he was under pressure, but still,

144
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta walk away with points at that

145
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 1: at the end of the first half, I mean, to

146
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 1: make matters worse, Kansas City Chiefs drove right down the field.

147
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: Fortunately for the Niners, Harrison Bucker missed that field goal,

148
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 1: but the game seemed to just turn at that point.

149
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 1: But even in that point, you you sit there and say, okay,

150
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: you dodge the bullet, you got the muffed punt, which

151
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: should have been automatic points, right, it should have been automatic,

152
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: and and okay, you fumble that one, like I mean,

153
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: you throw throw interception, and so it's like okay, like

154
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 1: you're disappointed already. And then you let them drive down

155
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: and then they get no points. That's at least a

156
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: six point swing, if not more. You know, you're expecting

157
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,319
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes he's drove down the field like that, You're

158
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: expecting seven points out of that. So you're expecting it

159
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: to be at least a ten point swing. They they

160
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: avoided that, but the momentum they never they never recaptured

161
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: it and and honestly, Kenn City just had their way

162
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: with him. You know, you think, hey, they don't have Tarik.

163
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: He's not missing Toorek. I gotta give it to that.

164
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: I mean, it's our various ward. It's still banged up,

165
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 1: Like we gotta figure that out. Jimmy's banged up. Talanoah

166
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: who Fango was having a really good game until he

167
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: got banged up. Like the injuries just keep mounting up.

168
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what happened to Trent Williams. He seemed

169
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: to be battling back and hopefully they get in back soon.

170
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: But it's just like, my goodness, man, Like forty four

171
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: points is not an elite defense giving up. And you

172
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,199
Speaker 1: would think, hey, maybe there's a pick six in their

173
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,480
Speaker 1: special teams touchdown, there was not. McCole Hartman had three

174
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: touchdowns to Russian one receiving, Chris Jones had two sacks,

175
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,199
Speaker 1: Frank Clark showed up one and a half sexs, Joe

176
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:35,280
Speaker 1: Juice Smith Schuster went off seven catches in the tug,

177
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: and Patrick the whole four three touchdowns in that interception

178
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 1: a bout Tlenoah. It's like, my goodness. You know it's

179
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:46,199
Speaker 1: National tight Ends Day, but come on, the whole Kansas

180
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,319
Speaker 1: City Chiefs roster went off. I gotta ask the Chiefs

181
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 1: the Bills. You know, these teams seem to be the bar, right,

182
00:09:55,120 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: I mean, these are the things I'm talking about, right,

183
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 1: don't leave the Eagles out. But in terms of the

184
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 1: a f C, the teams that you're likely to see

185
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl, if the San Francisco forty Niners

186
00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 1: so want to be there, what does this do to

187
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,959
Speaker 1: your psyche as a competitor, knowing that you got smacked

188
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: on your home turf by nineteen points against a team

189
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,199
Speaker 1: that you could if you get there. Seeing the Super

190
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,959
Speaker 1: Bowl twenty one Mitchell, they got thanked, They owned Mitchell

191
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 1: good It's demoralizing. It's demoralized, no question. But this team

192
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 1: has turned around better for more than this. Last season

193
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: they were three and five, came back, made it an

194
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: NFC championships. So they're they're never gonna die. You know,

195
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 1: They're never gonna say die, never gonna give up. They

196
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 1: have too much talent, they're too good of a team.

197
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 1: They're gonna be problem for somebody in NFC. But they

198
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 1: have to get it turned around. You have to find

199
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 1: these answers. That defense has to play better, because I mean,

200
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: you're not gonna play the Kansas City Chiefs every week.

201
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: But if you play them and it looks like this,

202
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 1: I'm concerned. I'm concerned about what happened, why it happened,

203
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 1: if those things are even correctable. You know there there

204
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,719
Speaker 1: are a lot of answers coming from from corner. You know,

205
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: Emmanuel Mosley is not returning this season. Jimmy Ward is

206
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: gonna have that cast on for a few more weeks.

207
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,839
Speaker 1: So you gotta come up with answers. I'm not your

208
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 1: nick boss, Like you need Eric armstand back, you need

209
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: your Van kid Law back. But who knows when those

210
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 1: guys will be back, So you have to like keep

211
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: the ship afloat without them. And you you turn around

212
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 1: and look the Seattle Seahawks, who's supposed to be nothing,

213
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: who's supposed to be the bottom dwellers of this division

214
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: are sitting there rolling. They're rolling. Geno has them rolling.

215
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: Your boy, Kenneth Walker Jr. Has them rolling. So it's

216
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 1: even more concerned for the San Francisco for the honors

217
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: because like the division isn't happening. How you thought it was,

218
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 1: and they got the Rams away next year in l

219
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 1: A next week does not get any easier. But I

220
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 1: gotta ask, I gotta ask the difficult question, Richard, don't

221
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: ask him. I have to. Going into the season, the

222
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 1: team expressed a little bit about and Jimmy G. They

223
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 1: named Trey Lance the starter. They designated this Trey Lances team,

224
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,079
Speaker 1: and here we have it, Jimmy G gets his opportunity

225
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 1: comes back. How much faith do you have in Jimmy

226
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: G after a performance like this, a game that seemed

227
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: they seemed to slip away from them and and really

228
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 1: there was no sign of fight. It's wavering, no question.

229
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: I mean it has to be wavering. But again they

230
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 1: have come back from bigger holes in this. So it's

231
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: the finger isn't just point that Jimmy G. It's everywhere

232
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: right now. So if this was like a defensive battle

233
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,440
Speaker 1: like it was in Denver and they only scored the

234
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: other team only scored eleven points, and you still lost

235
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 1: the game, then I'm sure it would be a lot

236
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 1: more finger point that Jimmy G. But they were moving

237
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 1: the ball on the offense. Sure he missed opportunities when

238
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 1: they had to have points when they needed to have points.

239
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 1: Those were missed ops. But we have to get people stop.

240
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: Forty four points on the board is unacceptable for a

241
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: top five defense, and that's what they are. They have

242
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: top five talent everywhere on the board, and they have

243
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: to play better and they know that and they will.

244
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: But right now, it's a lot of men in the

245
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,439
Speaker 1: mirror kind of deal conversations like everybody got to look

246
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 1: at and and and get that person fixed before they

247
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: can point the finger at anybody else. And there is

248
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 1: pressure in the division. Rich, I mean, you just said it.

249
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: The Seattle Seahawks four and three. No one saw it coming.

250
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: If I had told you at the beginning of the year,

251
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: seven weeks into the season, the Seattle Seahawks are in

252
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: first place of the NFC West. Your response, mental, I'd

253
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: be like, they must have an all decade coach. They

254
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,119
Speaker 1: must have a heck of a guy coaching that team.

255
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: They must have a guy, because who do they have

256
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 1: on the offensive line? Two rookie tackles? How are they

257
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: making network? Who's under center? Like, who's in the backfield?

258
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 1: A rookie who's at the corner spots? What's going on?

259
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: That's Michael Jackson and not the singer at the corner

260
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:50,839
Speaker 1: spot like in another rookie that you got in the

261
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: fifth round? Who's your nickel? Another rookie? Oh my god,

262
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: what's going on? But you know what you got. You

263
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: got a veteran pro bole safety. You got Al Woods

264
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: in the middle, Jordan Brooks has been playing well. Uh

265
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 1: and they got guys that belief, Like that's what this

266
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 1: culture was built on. It was built on confidence and belief.

267
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: And each week you can see those boys believe in

268
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,959
Speaker 1: a little more. This week, Kobe Bryant made another play made.

269
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: He's made plays every week, um since since he's been there,

270
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 1: and you're looking every week you see big impact from

271
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 1: these guys drafted this year. You don't see Geno's jersey

272
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: very dirty on Sundays. He had a very efficient, very

273
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: positive game and two touchdowns, one interception. And then your

274
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: boy Kenneth Walker Jr. Going crazy like three games. I

275
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 1: think he's had fifty three carries last three games for

276
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: three eighty four and four or five touchdowns Like he's

277
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 1: he's going crazy and they gotta be excited about that.

278
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 1: But they lost DK Mattcalf. We're not sure how how

279
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: how serious the injury is but Marquis Goodwin, my guy

280
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: shows up in a big way. Um, you feel terrible

281
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: because on a one of his touchdown catches, they Chargers

282
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 1: lose J. C. Jackson to a dislocated kneecap. But I

283
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 1: mean both sides of this, the Chargers were playing well.

284
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 1: So this isn't like, Hey, the Chargers just gave this

285
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: one away. No, they got beat Ryan Needle had an interception.

286
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: He's playing well for them. You gotta give Pete and

287
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: that staff a ton of credit, the offensive and defensive staff.

288
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 1: Shane Waldron, Um, you gotta give all of them, Clint Hurt,

289
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: all of them not a credit for what they're doing.

290
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: And Richard, they're winning it with relative ease. You know,

291
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 1: they're they're getting ahead of their opponent early and they're

292
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: holding them off. You know, I mean we saw it

293
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 1: last week against the Cardinals. I mean, this team is

294
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: building something what appears to be special, right, I mean

295
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 1: Gino Smith the quarterback position that was you know, we

296
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 1: thought it was gonna be a weakness for this team.

297
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 1: It's not. You know that they've got really good offensive

298
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: weapons if they can stay healthy. They're they're battling a

299
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: little bit of an injury bug now at the K

300
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: going down, but they've been able to study relatively healthy.

301
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 1: Their defense is coming along. I mean, you asked for

302
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 1: it three weeks ago, you know, when when they were

303
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: playing against the Lions and they gave up points in

304
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: a win. You know, you said they need to show up,

305
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: and then they proceeded to give up thirty nine against

306
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:21,800
Speaker 1: the Saints. Back to back week's defense playing playing well,

307
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, this is a team in the

308
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: Chargers that was foreign to coming into this game with

309
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, you know, a guy we thought was an

310
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 1: m d P candidate coming into the season, and they

311
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 1: got ahead early and controlled this game. If you had

312
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 1: never watched football before in your life and you flipped

313
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: on this game, you would have thought the Seahawks were

314
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: one of the best teams in the league. Rich me,

315
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: I'm wrong. You would have you, no question, would have

316
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: You would have thought, Man, this guy at quarterback, he

317
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: has to be a Pro Bowler. He has to he

318
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: has to be an All Star for this league, and

319
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: he's on pace to be one. If they're doing Pro

320
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: Bowl voting, Geno Smith better be get a Pro Bowl

321
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: vote this year. And and if he keeps this up.

322
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 1: I mean he might, he might sneak in and get

323
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: all provo, who knows. But he better be on the

324
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 1: NFC's Pro Bowl team because he's playing like one of

325
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 1: the best quarterbacks on that side of the football, especially

326
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 1: with Tom and Aaron having down years. Like Geno, Smith

327
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: is showing up in a big way and earning himself

328
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:15,479
Speaker 1: a lot of money next year. I bet the Seahawks

329
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,120
Speaker 1: wis they had him tied up for a few years

330
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,119
Speaker 1: right now, because of course they're looking. They're looking to

331
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 1: use that other pick that they got from Denver, which,

332
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 1: oh my god, Mitchell, the fighting Silos, the New York Jets,

333
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,399
Speaker 1: don't look now, the Giants are six in one two, Like,

334
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,199
Speaker 1: let's give them credit. Let's give let's give Bryan Day

335
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: Bowl a lot of credit. But there's a lot of

336
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,680
Speaker 1: things happening right now. But there's positive things in Seattle,

337
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 1: no question about it. And Richard, I don't want to

338
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: say I called it, but I did call it. I mean,

339
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: we have we have data, we have proof, you know,

340
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: we got all these podcasts recorded. Kenneth Walker the Third

341
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: has got to be the Rookie of the Year front

342
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 1: runner right now out of Michigan State. Give the man

343
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 1: his glory. I mean, this guy is the thunder and

344
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 1: lightning of the Seahawks. I called it. I called it,

345
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 1: and I love to see it. I love to see it.

346
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,680
Speaker 1: But you mentioned it the Fighting Solids. Let's move over

347
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: to the Big Apple. We got a lot of excitement

348
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,560
Speaker 1: in the US is biggest media market, the Big Apple,

349
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: New York. The Fighting Solids. Rich they come out victorious again,

350
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 1: Mitchell again, and they're five and two, Like they have

351
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,160
Speaker 1: more wins right now than they've had in a few

352
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,439
Speaker 1: different seasons than they had last year eighteen twenty. Like Mitchell,

353
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 1: they got five wins seven games into the season. Like

354
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: nobody expected this. I mean, if if Dave Bowl and

355
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: Kevin O'Connor weren't six and one in the Eagles seven

356
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: and oh, I mean, you'd be you've been screaming that

357
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,879
Speaker 1: he's coach of the Year. But the unfortunately everybody, you know,

358
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 1: there's some young coaches that are getting a job done

359
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: in a big way. But my goodness, it's just terrible

360
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 1: because you're sitting there, you're sad because they lost their

361
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,640
Speaker 1: biggest playmaker, their rookie of the year candidate in Breecee Hall,

362
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 1: who was having a magnificent season and then he's just gone.

363
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: Mitchell A. C l Oh, It's devastating. Is deflating. Um

364
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: he gave them their their only touchdown of the day

365
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: today on a sixty two yard touchdown run. And he's

366
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,399
Speaker 1: been explosive for them all year. You just hate to

367
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 1: hear that. But but this team, the defense played well

368
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,720
Speaker 1: nine points, held the Denver Broncos to nine points, again,

369
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: the lowest scoring offense and National Football League. But they

370
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: did their job defensively. But my goodness, man, I'm so

371
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,360
Speaker 1: excited for for for both teams and then the Giants.

372
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: I mean, we talked about it last week, Richard, this team,

373
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure if they were the best team in

374
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: this team for this game again, but they figured out

375
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,439
Speaker 1: a way to win, all right, And that's all they

376
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 1: continue to do. That's all they continue to do is

377
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 1: just win the game. The New York Giants are six

378
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,199
Speaker 1: in one. Yes, let that sink in. I mean they

379
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:56,640
Speaker 1: are six and one. This NFL. Everyone says it every year,

380
00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 1: there's the worst of first candidate every year. It's from

381
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: markable to see though, how does this happen? Honestly, Richard,

382
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: every single year a team comes out of nowhere, and

383
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,480
Speaker 1: this year it's the Jets, and it's the Giants because

384
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 1: of because a coach is using his personnel how they

385
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,119
Speaker 1: need to be used. He's not saying, Hey, I have

386
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:19,639
Speaker 1: this offense, and I gotta make Daniel Jones play like

387
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: Josh Allen, and I gotta make these receivers play like

388
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: Stefon Diggs and and and uh Gabe Davis and no,

389
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: you don't you say, who do we have. I'm gonna

390
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: play the their strengths. I'm gonna install plays. I'm gonna

391
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 1: install plays that puts Daniel Jones in positions where he

392
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 1: can use his legs, he can use his arm when

393
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 1: he can. But we're gonna run him. We're gonna pass it. Hey,

394
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,159
Speaker 1: Sae Kwon Barkley, I'm gonna run you. You're gonna have

395
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: twenty four carries, like, hey, you're back. Kwan's back carries

396
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 1: for a hundred and ten yards, Like, yes, he's back,

397
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: but Daniel Jones eleven carries for a hundred and seven yards.

398
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 1: They're not afraid to run him, and he's not afraid

399
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: to do it. He says, Hey, this is what I

400
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 1: do well. This is my way of making offense really effective.

401
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: I'm happy to do it. And that's why they're having

402
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 1: so much success in their defense. Their defense is playing

403
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 1: really good football, really good football, and sometimes you just

404
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 1: get lucky. They had to play at the end of

405
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 1: the game where they could have lost. The game could

406
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: have been over the other way. Jacksonville throws a deep pass,

407
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: but again they fight the guy off with seconds remaining

408
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: on the clock. It literally went zero with them at

409
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 1: the two yard line. Like if they would have got

410
00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: another play, it likely would have they likely would have

411
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: scored a touchdown and they would have lost. But again,

412
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter about if if or fifth we'd all

413
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 1: be drunk. They did that did not happen. The New

414
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: York Giants are six and one and they're beating the

415
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,199
Speaker 1: teams in front of them every time. Every week. They're like,

416
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: who if they beat just about everybody in front of them.

417
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 1: They lost one game, but every other team that showed

418
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: up in front of them they've beaten, and they've beaten

419
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 1: them on other continents, so like, at some point you

420
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 1: gotta just give them credit. We saw the Dallas Cowboys

421
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 1: play today, Granted they were playing against the lowly my

422
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 1: lowly Lions. But what in your mind is bringing Dak

423
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: Prescott back to this team do? Does this get the

424
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,679
Speaker 1: team back into Richard Sherman's top five power ranks for

425
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 1: the week. It might sneak him back in there. I mean,

426
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:20,359
Speaker 1: Dad played well. Your your Detroit Lions make it really tough.

427
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: I mean they were doing so well. I was I

428
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: was cheering for him, Mitchelly. I wanted them to do well.

429
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 1: I wanted them to be the team I wanted them

430
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: to be. But again, they're splitting carries between Tony Pollard

431
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 1: and Ezekiel Elliott. Mitchell we talked about this before, they

432
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 1: were splitting carries, and Tony Pollard is again averaging six

433
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: point nine to carry and Zeke's averaging three point eight

434
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: to carry. But Zeke has two touchdowns, Like Zeke steal

435
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 1: their lead back. He's the big money back and he's

436
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 1: going to be but Tony Pollard is earning it carries. Now.

437
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: There are some issues in pass protection, sure, but he

438
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,120
Speaker 1: is more than making that up when he's toting the rock.

439
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 1: And Dad didn't have to do a ton I was

440
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 1: concerned about what they would do when that came back.

441
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,560
Speaker 1: Would they go away from running the ball that way.

442
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: They did not. They did not make Dak throw it

443
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 1: forty three times and they said, hey, Dad, you throw it,

444
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:17,360
Speaker 1: we'll run it two perfect. That's successful football. And then

445
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 1: guess what, guess what else would do? We'll let dan

446
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: Quinn's defense work. And they did this Dallas Cowboys team

447
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: granted against the lowly Lions. I mean, the Lions had

448
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: five turnovers in this game. A lot to do with

449
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: what Dallas did on the defensive side of the ball.

450
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: But I don't want to make this show too much

451
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,560
Speaker 1: about the Detroit Lions. They got off on a hot

452
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 1: start this year. They were competitive in games. They were

453
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: everyone's sweetheart being out a hard knocks. They gained a

454
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: ton of fans. Everyone had so much confidence in dan Quinn.

455
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 1: I'm sorry now and Dan Campbell, right, at what point

456
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 1: does the raw, raw and hype speeches did they just

457
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,919
Speaker 1: give up? Well, it's probably right about now, Mitchell. Right

458
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,360
Speaker 1: about now, they're they're they're they're assuming they're gonna draft

459
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: top five. But I can't talk about them. I'm not

460
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 1: gonna waste time to talk about the team that with

461
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: one win. I'm gonna talk about the Dallas Cowboys defense

462
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: because Michael Parsons is defensive player. Early year candidate Dan

463
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:11,679
Speaker 1: Quinn's defense had five five sacks um Trayvon Diggs again

464
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: showing up in a big way, got an interception in

465
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: the game that Jordan Lewis got an interception in the game.

466
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: Like they're playing really good sound football. Like this isn't

467
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: this isn't a mirage, This isn't like an aberration. This

468
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 1: is these guys playing really solid, sound, fundamental football and

469
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: that's what makes them a tough team to deal with.

470
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: That division is going to be a blood bath because

471
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 1: three teams could easily win that division down the stretch.

472
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 1: I know the Eagles are out front now, but they

473
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 1: take one loss and now all of a sudden, the

474
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 1: Giants are in control and they gotta play the Cowboys again.

475
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 1: They gotta play the Cowboys with Doc this time. It

476
00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: will be a little different for the Philadelphia Eagles. I'm

477
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: looking forward to that game later in the year. But

478
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: who would have thought that NFC LEASE would be the

479
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 1: best conference in the National Football League And it's not

480
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 1: even close. Well, we got to delete the first podcast

481
00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: we did because we certainly did not think that and

482
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,159
Speaker 1: it wasn't ah. I was kind of on board with

483
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,240

485
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 1: You get to sail down to some sunny weather against

486
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens. But in the meantime, we got a

487
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 1: Sunday night football game to watch. In a big game

488
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,600
