1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:08,560
Speaker 1: Be Around the NFL Podcast needs to get a lawyer.

2
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the Around the NFL Podcast.

3
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: My name is Dan Hans is coming to you from

4
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: a virtual room filled with some heroes. Mark Sessler, Greg Rosenthal.

5
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: What is up, bullies? Ah, big week, big week in

6
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 1: this great year? Oh why are you the way that

7
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 1: you are? If you're you know, people are just listening

8
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: to this through audio channels. But I just and we

9
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 1: just watched Greg do something with his body. Um what

10
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,279
Speaker 1: was that? Greg? What were you doing there with your

11
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: fists in your arms, just kind of moving them in

12
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 1: an awkward way. I call that pure uncut sex. Yeah,

13
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: whats It's one of the benefits of taping at home,

14
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: Like we'll always look back at this year, Like remember

15
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: that year they kept putting us on the network and

16
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,559
Speaker 1: we could just wear T shirts. Yeah, before they buried

17
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: us when everyone went back to It's like when I

18
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 1: got four arms like this, you know, you just want

19
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: to show it off. You have to. You have to

20
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: know it's demand and people are demanding it, so you do.

21
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: It does remind me that there will be a time,

22
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 1: hopefully not too far down the road, where we have

23
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: a vaccine and and the government has stunned us all

24
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: by rolling it out in a way that all of

25
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 1: America benefits from it, and we move beyond this horrific plague.

26
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 1: And then we get told maybe via email, maybe a

27
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,759
Speaker 1: secondary manager type, that we no longer have television programs,

28
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,119
Speaker 1: that we are no longer needed really on any level

29
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 1: except for your cute little podcast. That time is coming.

30
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: But I will take that trade off if it means

31
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 1: that we don't have to wear masks outside anymore. You know,

32
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: there's some good vaccine news coming up. People getting pretty

33
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: optimistic about, you know, late into early spring that you

34
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: know it could happen. So it's starting to have a

35
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: little bit of alright. Week five. Week five in the NFL. Obviously,

36
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 1: Week four was impacted by the coronavirus with a postponement,

37
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: uh two post moments one game that got taken care

38
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:21,639
Speaker 1: of on Monday, and of course the Steelers and Titans,

39
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 1: which was moved to the middle of the season. We're

40
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 1: going to go through all the games that are going

41
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: to be played Week five. We won't dig in obviously

42
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 1: on the Bills and Titans, and that's for obvious reasons.

43
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: At the time of this taping, there's just too much

44
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: unknown out there, So what's the point of us pretending

45
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,680
Speaker 1: to games happening. We don't even know who's playing, who's available,

46
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: if they're playing, so uh, don't get angry at us.

47
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 1: Uh tytoons, excuse me, Titans fans, and I don't know.

48
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: You might have a case there at this point, but

49
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: what to bring it back? I mean, I like that

50
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: about three cases right right? This is a this is

51
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: a more clownish scenario that then, you know, dropping a

52
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: week eight game to the Jaguars or something they've created

53
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: total tumult. He said it. People, No, but I know

54
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: what you're saying exactly anyway, So we're not gonna hit

55
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: that game. But if it is indeed played, um, we

56
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: will of course cover it on the Sunday night Flagship

57
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: Show or hypothetically Monday night Tuesday Night. I don't know.

58
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: It's all so crazy right now, but let's get into

59
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:24,920
Speaker 1: the rest of the game's folks, and we do it

60
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 1: draft style, and Mark, uh, you just so happened to

61
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 1: have the number one overall pick where you go, I'm

62
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: gonna go pick the Indianapolis called traveling to Cleveland to

63
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: face the three and one Browns, and I am trying

64
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 1: to remember a preview show in our long history where

65
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: we had the Browns as the number one pick, I

66
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: mean without me pulling some sort of shenanigans. That's that's

67
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: been improbable in our in the run of our show.

68
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: So how did we get here? I would point to

69
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: someone named Paul de Podesta, the chief strategy officer of

70
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: the Browns, who a year ago before they you're gonna

71
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: mention the vibriss that originated somewhere else in the world

72
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: and came here. Well, that's a factor too. But de

73
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: Podesta pushed to hire Kevin Stefanski before they hired Freddy Kitchens.

74
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: He pushed to hire Andrew Berry. And for the first

75
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: time ever, we have a head coach in a GM

76
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: that are married together without a lot of infighting and politics.

77
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: And it is showing in this in this team right now.

78
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: And they they asked a couple of the players, what

79
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 1: do you think about Stefanski's play calling Darren Gutsy And

80
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 1: we saw that against the Cowboys, a series of trick plays,

81
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: the fifty yard run by Odell in a tough spot.

82
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: I just think this is a different type of team

83
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: than we've seen in Cleveland a really long time. And

84
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: you know people can say, why doesn't Baker Mayfield, why

85
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: is he throwing for three d yards a game? Well,

86
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: you don't need him to right now. He has been

87
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: tracked as the when you look at perfect ball location,

88
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: PFF looks at this the number one quarterback right now.

89
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 1: And I know that there are some plays that Baker

90
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: Mayfield would want back, but he is working well in

91
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: this system. The run game is on fire. You know

92
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: there are concerns that Nick Chub is not part of that.

93
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: But Greg, I know that you've and studying a little

94
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,839
Speaker 1: bit of de Ernest Johnson who stepped in for now Yeah, right,

95
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: and Kareem Hunt and Ernest Johnson and the rest of

96
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 1: that cast did not skip a beat. Now that was

97
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: against the Dallas defense. Now you're playing a defense that

98
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 1: is shut down the run and done a lot of

99
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: other ian caused a lot of other problems for teams

100
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: that they've faced so far. So this is a good

101
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,919
Speaker 1: test for the Browns. Did you? And that was a

102
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: love fest? Mark? And I'm happy for you, Mark, because

103
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: that is as about as positive as you've been on

104
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 1: a Brown's monologue since I've known you. Did you say

105
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield is the number one quarterback according to PF No, no, no,

106
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: according to like perfect ball placement situations. It's a niche stat.

107
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna deep. I'm gonna dig deep for niche stats.

108
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,279
Speaker 1: Deep letter on Baker's case. Come on enough with that,

109
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 1: because I think because I think, um, we're gonna see

110
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 1: I don't think people are really saying, like, why isn't

111
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,279
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield throwing for three hundred yards? I think it

112
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: all makes sense the way their game plan is playing out.

113
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: But now Nick Chubb is on I R. So that

114
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 1: does change a lot, and it does put more pressure

115
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,479
Speaker 1: on Baker. For example, hit that throw down the left

116
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,039
Speaker 1: sideline when Baker Mayfield or when Odell bails him out

117
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: in the end of the Cowboys game. You're gonna need

118
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: Baker to play at a higher level than he has. Well.

119
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: They had about seven points when Nick Chubb left against

120
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, and they put up forty two in the

121
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: final three quarters. I don't know where they find these guys.

122
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: De Ernest Johnson just mowing over people, reminding Mark Sessler

123
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: of of a young Kevin Mack. But you're not gonna

124
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,159
Speaker 1: do it this week against DeForrest Buckner. I mean, it'll

125
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: be tough for you. Gotta try to run against this

126
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: Colts team, and we don't know if Darius Leonard is

127
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: gonna be out there, which to me is a huge factor.

128
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,119
Speaker 1: I thought when you said Mark though one guy changed

129
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: at all, I thought you were gonna say Bill Callahan

130
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: their offensive line. To me, he's the key, He's the key.

131
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 1: There's suddenly the best offensive line in the league. These

132
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: teams are bizarre there three and one, and with their

133
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 1: quarterbacks not doing much. I mean Baker Mayfield's yards per attempt, Yeah,

134
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: he's he's been accurate, he's been fine. It's still near

135
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: the bottom of the league. And Philip Rivers, to me,

136
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 1: has not particularly played well. If feel like I'm in

137
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: bizarro land. I'm always defending Philip Rivers and his team

138
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 1: is letting him down. And now I'm saying, I don't know,

139
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: like he is being very careful with this throws, and

140
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: yet he's still had plenty of turnover worthy plays. He's

141
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: missed a lot of throws. There's not a lot of

142
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: juice around him. Only Lamar Jackson and Kirk Cousins have

143
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: thrown the ball less than these two quarterbacks Baker in

144
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers out of guys who have started four games.

145
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: So it's bizarre. In in an offensive league, I sort

146
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: of trust the Browns a little more because they seem

147
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: more like the offensive team here. Mark Cesslo, you should

148
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: lock up your Browns if you really believe in him.

149
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: Well you know, I I've learned to touch the Browns

150
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: in our lock exercise. But Greg, I'm with you because

151
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: I don't think Cleveland is playing around Baker Mayfield. But

152
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: when you watch this Cults team, you kind of get

153
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 1: the sense that they're trying to ask Philip Rivers to

154
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 1: do as little as possible, and I don't know if

155
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: they have the offense to carry them that way. I mean,

156
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: what is going on with t Y Hilton? When is

157
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: he Is he deciding just to take the early autumn

158
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: off when he be reignited into this attack? Not impressed

159
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,679
Speaker 1: so far with t Y Hilton. I think the Colts

160
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 1: part of it has been the schedule and they haven't

161
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: needed to ask Phil Rivers to carry them in a game.

162
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: It could happen here because the Browns have been putting

163
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: up points and I think will continue to happen. It

164
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: did show me something with the Indie defense last week

165
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: playing without Darius Leonard to shut down. Listen, the Bears

166
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: are not very good on offense, but still to hold

167
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 1: that team to three points late in the fourth quarter

168
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: that they have more depth than they can keep it going.

169
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: And I think, uh, this will be a real test

170
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: for both teams. I think this is a good number

171
00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: one overall pick, mark, and it is a great sign

172
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 1: for your Cleveland Browns that they are in the top

173
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: of the show. Now, let's see what they can do

174
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 1: with that. That and that's a great responsibility mark your

175
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: Browns right now at the top of this show. It is.

176
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,359
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if I'm shouldering the responsibility.

177
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: My job is to sit there and watch them and

178
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 1: see how they perform. But I mean, they nearly gave

179
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 1: me a heart attack at the end of the Cowboys games.

180
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: So can we make these a little less dramatic? Possibly?

181
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: All right, we'll see how it plays out. All right,

182
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 1: I am up. It is a bit of a weird

183
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 1: slate this week. Um, So it wasn't a game that

184
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: jumped right out at me. So I will go with

185
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 1: the Las Vegas Raiders traveling to Arrowhead to face the Chiefs,

186
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 1: um and I thought the Chiefs performance on Monday night

187
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: was interesting. They won because their defense showed it can

188
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,439
Speaker 1: still deliver a big performance even when it's shorthanded. You're

189
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,719
Speaker 1: missing Chris Jones, who is there, you know, best playmaker

190
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,239
Speaker 1: on the defensive line, and they still force four turnovers,

191
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: uh and hold the opposition to ten points. Now that

192
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: opposition is this game playoff the same way with Cam

193
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: Newton behind center instead of Brian Hoyer and Jared Stidham.

194
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 1: Probably not the same type of game, but I still

195
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,880
Speaker 1: think the outcome outcome would have been the same with

196
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes stepping in and making sure the Chiefs there

197
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: win that game. So I think, on balance, even if

198
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: you want to be like, oh, that was a bit

199
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: of a bummer that the Chief's offense wasn't humming there

200
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,360
Speaker 1: in prime time, I think it was on balance a

201
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 1: good sign for the Chiefs that they again showing that

202
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 1: this is a well rounded team. It's just it's not

203
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: just the Patrick Mahomes show. So I expect them to

204
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: be in a really good spot here against the Raiders

205
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 1: greg a Raiders team that showed for the second consecutive

206
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: week that they can hang for a while with a

207
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: team better than them, but they make too many mistakes

208
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: to win these games outright, and they don't have a defense.

209
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the perfect recipe for the Chiefs

210
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 1: to get right offensively. It feels weird that a four

211
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: NO team who blasted the Ravens on Monday Night football

212
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,079
Speaker 1: needs to get right. But they are a little different.

213
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 1: I mean, Mahomes is eighteenth and yards right now, like

214
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,640
Speaker 1: eighth and yards per a tempt that they're between six

215
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: and eight. I mean, he's fine. I'm just saying they're

216
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: not at the level that they were out a year ago.

217
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: And he's playing well, and you know what gets you

218
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 1: back to that level, a nice comfortable matchup versus this

219
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,719
Speaker 1: dreadful Raiders defense. I mean, they were thirty in the

220
00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: league last year in efficiency, thirty feet in the league

221
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: this year. They don't do anything well. They missed tackles,

222
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: they're not fundamental, they don't have much skills, they don't

223
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: have a pass rush. The one thing I liked about

224
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: them was in their secondary with Trayvon Mullen and our net,

225
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,800
Speaker 1: and now our net is hurt, and so this is perfect.

226
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 1: Mahomes cooks the Chiefs. And I think John Gruden's head

227
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: is about to explode because of this defense. He's never

228
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 1: had a bad defense like this. He always had Monty

229
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: Kiff and kind of propping him up in Tampa. Uh,

230
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: this is a new experience, and you do wonder if

231
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,319
Speaker 1: he you know, I wouldn't be comfortable if I was employed,

232
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 1: Uh in the you know, Raiders defensive coaching room right now.

233
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 1: I think you're right, Gregg. And I mean I don't

234
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 1: like to look at results from a year ago and

235
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 1: beyond that, but there is something about this Chief's Raiders

236
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 1: rivalry which is that it's not a rivalry and just

237
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: hasn't been for so long. Derek Carr is Owen six

238
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: in Kansas City, John Cruden is not beaten Mahomes and

239
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, and they haven't just simply lost. Look at

240
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: some of the results. They have been sandblast by the Chiefs.

241
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: So you know, we can talk about Kansas City site

242
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: still finding its groove on offense, but their version of

243
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 1: finding their groove is their four No, they're undefeated. They

244
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: just hammered the Ravens a couple of weeks ago. I

245
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: don't see a lot in their way this time. What

246
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 1: I'd love to see is what happened to that Raiders

247
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: offense from week one? What happened to Josh Jacobs. I mean,

248
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,079
Speaker 1: it's one of my favorite running backs. He's not been

249
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: the same guy to ask a couple of weeks. I

250
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,199
Speaker 1: think he's playing fine, but he's not the central figure

251
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 1: that he was right now. No, and you mentioned it, Dan, like,

252
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 1: this is a team that if you want to be

253
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 1: a frisky Raiders team, you have to be like the

254
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: Patriots were a week ago. There they had an offensive

255
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 1: penalty was their first all season. Okay, that's well coached

256
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: right there. That's disciplined. The Raiders, to me, are a

257
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: mistake prone outfit and you can't be that against Mahomes

258
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: and the Chiefs. You're gonna get waxed. I thought it

259
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: was a perfect kind of summation of where the Raiders are,

260
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: which is a team that they're not a laughing stock

261
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: by any stretch. But Darren Waller, their start tight end,

262
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: gets the ball punched out of his hands by Josh Norman.

263
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 1: The next play, uh, they go up top Uh Josh

264
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: Allen and hits a fifty yard past the Digs to

265
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 1: set up the game clinching touchdown breakdowns all over the place.

266
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: So I the Raiders aren't there yet, and I do

267
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: you You mentioned sand blasted mark, which is a wild

268
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: way to explain it. So I'll go with like, I

269
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: couldn't we lock games every week. I couldn't look in

270
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: the mirror and and say, oh, I'm gonna lock up

271
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: the Chiefs here, because this feels like the sand blaster

272
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,080
Speaker 1: event of the week where we could be, you know,

273
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: a three touchdown difference. I don't like the Raiders chances

274
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: of hanging in this game. Now you would, We would

275
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: kick you off the show if you detended to lock

276
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 1: up the Chiefs. It's just it's that's illegal, all right,

277
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: show us something. They might get Trent Brown back though

278
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 1: a big time right tackle, and they might get Henry

279
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: Ruggs their first round draft pick on offense. So show

280
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: us something and score some points. Right, that's another chef. See,

281
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: we we challenge the Browns by making them first and say,

282
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 1: you know, show us that you are worthy of that

283
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: high placement of the show. Now, Raiders, we challenge you

284
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 1: to make a competitive at Arrowhead. Greg you're up next

285
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: in the draft. Uh, not their game. I'm gonna challenge

286
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: a team. How about the Minnesota Vikings go to Seattle

287
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,319
Speaker 1: and put on a show for us on Sunday Night football.

288
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: I think they can do it because the Vikings offense

289
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,439
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks has taken major strides because

290
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: of Justin Jefferson. He has played so well. I'm almost

291
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: like afraid to talk about how well Justin Jefferson is playing.

292
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 1: Like you watch those two games and you think, is

293
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: he the number one receiver and Theland's number two? Like

294
00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: has he fully replaced Stefan Digs? Yet it sounds crazy

295
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 1: because it's two games and you want to see more.

296
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: But it's the way he's doing it, his yards after

297
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: the catch, the way he gets the ball at the catchpoint.

298
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: It's everything they were saying coming into the draft. It's

299
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: everything that's making the Eagles fans crazy that they didn't

300
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 1: wind up with this guy. And Dalvin Cook is running

301
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 1: as hard as anyone. They're scoring over thirty points a game.

302
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 1: Cousins is like in a totally different offense. They barely

303
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 1: throw the ball, but no one throws it deeper more

304
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 1: often than Kurt Kid because he Cousins, like what is happening.

305
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 1: It's a totally different Vikings, right, I love I love

306
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: a little kid, causey you know he this they should

307
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 1: put up points everyone plays. You know what, I thought

308
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 1: the same thing the past two weeks. The Vikings fixed

309
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 1: themselves on offense, and I you know, there's too much

310
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: talent there and you could get on Kirk Cousins for

311
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: being flawed or a guy that can't get to the

312
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 1: next level. But Kirk Cousins is gonna get you points

313
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: and take you down the field for sixteen weeks of

314
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: a regular season. So they've now fixed one side of

315
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: the ball. Now they just gotta figure out how to

316
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 1: make the defense competent and if they could do that,

317
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 1: they will get back in the race. But I totally

318
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: I'm with you that was on Justin Jefferson. That was

319
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 1: a huge issue for them in the first three weeks

320
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 1: of the season where they couldn't or the first two

321
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: weeks of this season where it was clear that Cousins

322
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: didn't know who to trust. Once the kid kid cause

323
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 1: he showed that, uh, he could trust the rookie. Now

324
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: that offense, the lids off the offense because you have

325
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: two big time receivers and you know, quietly a top

326
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,320
Speaker 1: three running back in the whole league and Dalvin Cook. Yeah,

327
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: they can be what they were last year. I mean

328
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 1: it was the question of you you handed away Stefon Diggs.

329
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 1: It wasn't. It wasn't you know, in any way of

330
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: fleecing because you got picks back, and then this pick

331
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: has worked out with Jefferson, So you can be what

332
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: you were last year, especially when you have Dalvin Cook

333
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: running for three d and forty five yards and three

334
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 1: touchdowns over the last two weeks. I mean, this is

335
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: an explosive offense when it wants to be, and you're

336
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 1: you're facing a Seahawks pass rush that simply doesn't exist.

337
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 1: I mean, it's a ghost pass rush. It's the worst

338
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: in the league in many metrics. Jamal Adams is out

339
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 1: of the mix. So this has potential shootout potential that

340
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: the Vikings can be what they want to be. But

341
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you something right now. I just think

342
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: Seattle is a special team right now. And you know,

343
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: the desert does not provide a lot of comfortable locks

344
00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: this week for us. But I have no shame in

345
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: picking the Seattle Seahawks to lock this game up, to

346
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 1: win it and take the Vikings. I like it. I

347
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: mean that you're right there were It's weirdly a week.

348
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 1: There's a lot of mismatches, and I think think this

349
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: game is dangerous for Seattle. I trust them ultimately because

350
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 1: they're so aggressive offensively. The drive at the end of

351
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 1: the first half against Miami was unbelievable. I'm not gonna

352
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna shame you know what I already can

353
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: tell dan Is dan is getting I'm gonna be hearing

354
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: about this from Damn right around our Sunday night show.

355
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 1: I have no problems. I haven't said anything. Let it

356
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: be staying. It's you, it's your tone, it's the way

357
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 1: that you're not, you know, sort of shaking your head

358
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: a little bit. The Viking. The Vikings defense is so bad.

359
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 1: If you saw that drive that the Seahawks guys made

360
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:37,959
Speaker 1: at the end of that first half, they had twenty

361
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: five seconds and they scored a touchdown against Miami. In

362
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 1: the past, that would have been Brian Schottenheimer running into

363
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 1: the line and running into halftime. Instead, they scored a

364
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 1: touchdown in four plays like that is outrageous, and Minnesota's

365
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 1: kind of showed nothing defensively where you actually think they'll

366
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 1: get many stops. So you're right, Mark, this is a

367
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: good pick. I feel good about Russell Wilson on pace

368
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 1: for seventy five touchdowns at home against the worst past

369
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: defense in the league, a team that's one and three.

370
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 1: I feel like this is a good lock for you.

371
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: Thank you. I well, you know your approval is something

372
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 1: that I'm constantly seeking, So this this matters to me.

373
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 1: Feeling good? All right, Greg, you're up next. That snakes

374
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 1: to you, all right. Early games, I'm excited to see

375
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 1: the first matchup of Lamar Jackson versus Joe Burrow Bengals Ravens.

376
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 1: Isn't it fun that the Bengals are in games that

377
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,879
Speaker 1: we actually want to watch. I don't know if they

378
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 1: can win this game, but I think they can slow

379
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 1: down the Ravens. Like the Ravens are, it's tough to

380
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 1: compare them to the two thousand nineteen Ravens, like that's

381
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,400
Speaker 1: unfair for any team, even Ravens. But they're not They're

382
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,479
Speaker 1: not the same. They're eleventh in efficiency right now. They

383
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 1: don't have those long drives. I think the offensive line

384
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: is not playing quite as well. They have the explosive place.

385
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you saw Lamar Jackson last week. He makes

386
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,960
Speaker 1: a couple of incredible throws and incredible runs and you

387
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: don't worry about them that much against the Bengals defense

388
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,880
Speaker 1: that the numbers is a lot better this year. Um,

389
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: but you think this is a game where they'll still

390
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: do enough. But it's it's not the same feeling. And

391
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: you do wonder if if it's familiar matchups, if it's

392
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: tough defenses they're facing. But like that seven yard you

393
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 1: know run that Lamar kind of does to the outside,

394
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 1: that always felt like the easiest playing football, they're not

395
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: getting that this year, and they're not getting the easy

396
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: runs out of their running backs either. So now that

397
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 1: they're heading into division play, I'm curious to see if

398
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,960
Speaker 1: this Bengals defense, which is played fairly well, can slow

399
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,520
Speaker 1: him down a little bit. I'm with you. I think

400
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: it's an interesting matchup, and you're right, the Bengals are

401
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 1: attractive to view for the first time and that I

402
00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: can remember in a long time, because Andy Dalton never

403
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: really got it done for me. I'd imagine, though, if

404
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: your defensive coordinator and we're going back to you know,

405
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 1: February and March, and you have time to dissect film, well,

406
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: what are you doing. If you're gonna face the Ravens

407
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: in September October, then figure out ways to neutralize what

408
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 1: they did last year. They were ahead of the curve

409
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 1: and defenses catch up to some of this stuff. That said,

410
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: I mean watching Lamar Jackson last week, he made a

411
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: couple through was one to Marky Andrews, who still remains

412
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 1: incredibly dangerous. That are just pinpoint accurate. So I think

413
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: they can do more and more. I have no problem

414
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 1: with them kind of working themselves out of a funk

415
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 1: a little bit. This Ravens team, to me, I would

416
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: consider it a Titanic upset if the Bengals snow slowed

417
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:18,159
Speaker 1: them this week. Am I wrong here? I mean, I

418
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: don't think anybody's gonna pick Sincinni to win this game,

419
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 1: but I I do feel the same way that Burrow

420
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 1: makes them exciting Cincinnati. And you know what, Finally, Joe

421
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 1: Mixon becomes a huge part of that offense. And it's

422
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: kind of weird. It's the same weekend last weekend. Then

423
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 1: he began the weekend in the hospital with a mysterious

424
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: chess chest pains that he wondered if he got it

425
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: from sleeping the wrong way. I've never had issues from

426
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 1: sleeping on my chest that I've I've put my arm

427
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: to sleep before. I've woken up with a short neck

428
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,879
Speaker 1: before from sleeping. But but like you know, put me

429
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,399
Speaker 1: in a hospital with a chest injury from sleeping. I

430
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,879
Speaker 1: don't know. But he was he was awesome. Uh. In

431
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 1: Week four, he carried the offense three touchdowns over a

432
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 1: hundred and fifth the total yards. And that's like a

433
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 1: nice reminder, Hey, Joe Burrow doesn't have to go out

434
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 1: and go at this alone with a bad offensive line

435
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: and limited skilled talent on the outside. You have this

436
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 1: all pro caliber running back behind you. So um, having

437
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,280
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon playing like Joe Mixon is huge uh for

438
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: Cincinnati and makes them frisky in this game. And my

439
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 1: thought on the Ravens is, yeah, maybe they're not humming

440
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: like they did last year on offense, but they might

441
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 1: not ever do that again. Lamar Jackson will play fifteen

442
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:31,919
Speaker 1: more years and never have a season like he had

443
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: last year. That was just a blessed season. Uh. If

444
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 1: he can do what they did last week, that will

445
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: win nine out of ten weeks as well. So I

446
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,440
Speaker 1: feel good about the Ravens this week. But this could

447
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 1: be an interesting game. Could be defensively, I think they

448
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,399
Speaker 1: have to be a little worried about their pass fresh too.

449
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: They get no pressure without sending blitzes, and so this

450
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:54,639
Speaker 1: is a good test against Joe Burrow where you figure

451
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 1: you shouldn't need to send the house to get to

452
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow in this offensive line. They played better against Jacksonville,

453
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 1: but Baltimore, I know they're worried about that. They don't

454
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: have guys that can win one on one, and I

455
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: think against the better teams that can expose you. And

456
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, I don't know he makes the right decisions.

457
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 1: He might know where to throw against that blitz. He's

458
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 1: got weapons to Higgins playing pretty well too. I mean

459
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 1: I would say that the Bengals have helped pass rushes

460
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: get right all seasons, so it could be arrow up

461
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 1: for the Ravens on that front. All right, I am

462
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: up next and I will select drumroll please Monday Night

463
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: Football Chargers at Satan. Okay, So, uh, I really liked

464
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: what I saw from the Saints against the Lions. You know,

465
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: they fall behind fourteen nothing, uh and you're thinking, oh,

466
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,919
Speaker 1: this looks like a disaster shaping up and then they

467
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: reel off five consecutive touchdowns and take control of that

468
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 1: game and and win it and get kind of get

469
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 1: their mojo back a little bit. I'm not saying all

470
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 1: is right in New Orleans right now, but that is

471
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: a win that I feel like I can get them going.

472
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:01,199
Speaker 1: I continue to think the handeringing around Drew Brees is

473
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:05,360
Speaker 1: a little bit absurd. Yes, he's not a downfield passer

474
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,479
Speaker 1: at this stage of his career, but they're putting up

475
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 1: points and Michael Thomas is the best wide receiver of

476
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 1: the league. He hasn't been anywhere near the field since

477
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 1: Week one, and they've They've still been okay, and a

478
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: big part of that is because Alvin Kamar is the

479
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 1: best running back alive, with all due respect to Christian McCaffrey,

480
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 1: who's injured right now, but Kamara, week after week is

481
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 1: the best player on the field. And I think we're

482
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 1: gonna just gonna continue to see this offense piling up

483
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: points even if Drew Brees isn't hitting on fifty yard bombs.

484
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 1: I don't know why everyone's so obsessed with the idea

485
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 1: that Drew Brees has to hit on these long passes

486
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: for the offense to be good because it doesn't. Well,

487
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: I I just you know, I I'm with Dan in

488
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: the sense that I think Breese right now is like

489
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 1: an adjunct professor of Gridiron smarts, and he's leaning on

490
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: you know, twenty years of dissecting film and in actual

491
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 1: teams in real life, in real time, and guys like

492
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: tray Kwon Smith stepped up a manual send Sanders finally

493
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: appeared last week. Take a lot to go down fourteen

494
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 1: nothing when they were up untill like you know, two

495
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,040
Speaker 1: three in the morning with their Corona scare and then

496
00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: turn around and it wasn't just it wasn't just that

497
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: it was five straight touchdowns. It was long drives. They

498
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,400
Speaker 1: put drives together and completely beguiled the Lions. My one

499
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: concern though, if you're the Chargers, is you loosed Austin

500
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 1: Ekeler and they're running backs. Just Justin Jackson and Joshua

501
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 1: Kelly come in and combined for fifteen carries for sixteen yards,

502
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 1: greg and a killer fumble before the half against the Bucks.

503
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: This isn't the Bucks defense against the run, but the

504
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 1: Saints feel like they've got an advantage there on that front. Yeah,

505
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 1: they have a lot of advantage. I'm worried. You're right.

506
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 1: I mean, the Bucks are a historic rush defense last year,

507
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: so that's not a shock. I think Joshua Kelly's fine,

508
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 1: but I'm worried about Justin Herbert because I like this

509
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 1: kid so much. I've enjoyed watching him. He's been my

510
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 1: favorite part of the entire season. I mean, he is

511
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 1: a kid. We're old, We're in. You've said that we're

512
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: old fourteen times on the shows of our Think yourselves,

513
00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 1: what kind of midlife prices are you going through right now?

514
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:08,640
Speaker 1: I'm forty one. I'm embracing it. But this kid, and

515
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 1: he's unbelievable. The touch, the accuracy, and it's almost like

516
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 1: thinks have been going too well for him, and you

517
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,160
Speaker 1: worry about in prime time because he's not just playing well,

518
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: he's carrying them. They're missing five defensive starters. They're not

519
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,200
Speaker 1: the same team without Chris Harris and Melvin ingram Uh

520
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 1: and the rest of their starters, Derwin James. They're not

521
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: the same without Austin Neckler. They didn't have Mike Williams

522
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:33,439
Speaker 1: last week, they didn't have the right side of their

523
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: offensive line. We'll see how the injuries shake out this week.

524
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 1: But you're playing a veteran team that's pretty um deep upfront,

525
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,360
Speaker 1: that's getting players back, and it just feels like it's

526
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: it's asking Herbert an awful lot to carry them to

527
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 1: your point on on the defense, like you're up against

528
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,439
Speaker 1: Tom Brady and the Bucks and you let that slip away,

529
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 1: like stocked Chargers defense would not have done that. Well,

530
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 1: that is true, but also Joshua Kelly putting the ball

531
00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 1: on the ground there at the end of the first

532
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,560
Speaker 1: killing killed him. That changed the entire game. It was

533
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,439
Speaker 1: would have been seven at the half. I believe they

534
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 1: could have just kneeled on it and got out of

535
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: there with that lead. They handed off at deep in

536
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: their own zone, he coughs it up, Brady does what

537
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: Brady does, and and then they took off from there.

538
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,719
Speaker 1: I just want to, you know, you feel for Tarrod

539
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 1: Taylor or Tyrod Taylor, who is now just kind of

540
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,840
Speaker 1: disappeared and he's never coming back to the starting lineup

541
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: barring an injury to Herbert at this point because the rookie,

542
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 1: the kid has showed off that he deserves to be playing.

543
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,800
Speaker 1: But we aren't. We should be thankful that this Monday

544
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: night game has juice because Tyrod Taylor against the Saints

545
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: doesn't do much for me at all. A young Justin

546
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: Herbert against the old Drew Brees, that's fun. But for

547
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: all the reasons that I've stated earlier, I'm locking up

548
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 1: the Saints here against Justin Herbert in prime time. I

549
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,479
Speaker 1: just think, uh, you know, he's got a little bit

550
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,120
Speaker 1: of a tall task ahead of him. Is that okay

551
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,479
Speaker 1: with you know? And if it helps Dan? Like I

552
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 1: as you approved of my lock, which means a lot

553
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 1: to me in reverse, I approve of yours. Greg, How

554
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 1: do you feel it's fine? This is like a week

555
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: where we're just hitting some four ft pots, moving on

556
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 1: to moving on to the next one. Watch us all lose? Okay,

557
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: time now for a road to victory presented by the

558
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 1: United States Marine Corps. Mark Cecily, you're up, all right? Well,

559
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the Giants at Dallas. And this

560
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 1: is a Newsy game. Damn. We already have some issues

561
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: bubbling up in this one. Oh yeah. The Cowboys This

562
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: from Mike Garretfolo and Jane Slater might be without Tyron Smith,

563
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 1: their star left tackle. They're gathering medical opinions on his

564
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 1: neck after a setback, and one option is being considered

565
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: shutting him down for the season, according to A Garafolo

566
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 1: and Jane Slater, So a killer development for the Cowboys

567
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: who are already hurting. Yeah, it's it's really rough, and

568
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,400
Speaker 1: you know he hasn't really been healthy to begin with.

569
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 1: And you saw what Myles Garrett and the Browns pass

570
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 1: rush did to this offense last week. You know, there

571
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 1: was that to drive stretch where the Cowboys head back

572
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 1: to back fumbles which put them in a big hole.

573
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 1: But outside of that, at this offense, your offensive line

574
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 1: issues aside, this offense is unbelievable right now. I think

575
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,480
Speaker 1: Seedee Lamb is just morphing into a star before our eyes.

576
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: Guys like Dalton Schultz. Uh. My thing though, is you

577
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 1: just cannot They are almost an offense that cannot make mistakes.

578
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: If their defense under Mike Nolan is going to continue

579
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 1: to play the way that they've been playing, I mean,

580
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: it looks like a unit that never really got off

581
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: zoom meetings onto actual on field progressing. They are getting

582
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 1: torn up now. I don't know if the Giants can

583
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 1: take advantage of that, but if they can, I'd be

584
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,719
Speaker 1: really concerned about the Giants offense. Yeah, I don't know

585
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 1: what to make of this Cowboys defense because I do

586
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 1: think you can put it on the coach in the scheme.

587
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 1: You know, you look at the Giants defense for instance,

588
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 1: they they installed the new scheme and you try to

589
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 1: keep it simple for your players, and you know what,

590
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 1: their defense is a lot better this year without Tyrone Smith.

591
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think this game becomes a little

592
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 1: more dangerous for the Cowboys. That's devastating because we haven't

593
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 1: really talked about why Ale Collins being likely out for

594
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 1: the season, as Jeans later also broke, Yeah, big year

595
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: for Jane Slater and tackle news in Dallas. I mean,

596
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,520
Speaker 1: they go from having the best tackle combination in the

597
00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 1: league to one of the worst, and it really it

598
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 1: makes you think they're not gonna be able to keep

599
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 1: up and keep getting into these shootouts if they're not

600
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: as good up front. Dan, Yeah, the whole thing is

601
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: crumbling for the Cowboys once again. It feels like it

602
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 1: happens every year for different reasons. But when you factor

603
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 1: in how bad this defense has been and now with

604
00:29:27,120 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: the offensive line issues, it's just none of this points

605
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: to a big rally come back to win another NFC

606
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 1: East title. And you look at where Dallas is defensively,

607
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,479
Speaker 1: they're the worst in the league statistically in terms of

608
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 1: points allowed. Well, the Giants are on the opposite end

609
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: of the spectrumunt offense. Uh, nobody has been worse than

610
00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: them points wise this season. And I think that the

611
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 1: heat is turned up here on Danny Dimes. And I

612
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,120
Speaker 1: know you don't want to judge a quarterback so quickly.

613
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 1: He's just in his second season. But at the same time,

614
00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 1: just like the other team in the East, Rutherford doom Zone,

615
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: the Jets, you have to make a decision with when

616
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 1: you have a high first round pick coming and some

617
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 1: real quarterback talent in the upcoming draft class, what are

618
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: you gonna do with your quarterback? And we haven't seen

619
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 1: a lot from Danny Domes since about the third quarter

620
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 1: of Week one. If he doesn't get right and start

621
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 1: putting up points against this Cowboys defense, it's gonna get

622
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: louder and louder the buzz about what his future is

623
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,040
Speaker 1: this quickly In New York, They're gonna miss Pat Schermer

624
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 1: at some point. It sounds crazy, but Giants fans have

625
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,719
Speaker 1: to look at what Danny Dimes was doing last year,

626
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: and you saw a guy who was playing freely who

627
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: I thought was exciting to watch. In the difference right

628
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 1: now under Jason Garrett is he's indecisive. He's he's trying

629
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: to avoid turnovers, but he's not doing the positive things

630
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: Danny Dimes that is that at least made him intrigue.

631
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 1: It's a tough watch on offense, and you're right if

632
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 1: he can't get it done this week, Jason Garrett's gonna

633
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 1: get a lot of heat. Cowboys fans are loving this

634
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 1: having Garrett come into town this week. The one thing

635
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: that I think the Giants are doing well is you

636
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: know they had the Rams last We could under sixty

637
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: yards rushing with about eight minutes to go in that game.

638
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,000
Speaker 1: They are a pretty solid defense against the run, and

639
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 1: if you can take Zeke Elliott out of the affair,

640
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: that will help a little bit. But I just it's

641
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 1: I struggle to come up with the way where this

642
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: game is a close nail biter in the fourth quarter,

643
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 1: if Dallas is operating the way that you'd expect with

644
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 1: their star players. I mean, Amari Cooper used to be

645
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,880
Speaker 1: this inconsistent guy, right he has been like the most

646
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 1: maximized version of Amari Cooper we've ever seen. It's I

647
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: don't know how Dallas here. I mean, I wouldn't say

648
00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: you could judge what the future of the Cowboys based

649
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,480
Speaker 1: on going against the giants in week five, but I

650
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,280
Speaker 1: I think because you're gonna see. My prediction here is

651
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: even with all the stuff going on in front of

652
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, he's gonna be airing it out and piling

653
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 1: up yards and points. Again, I don't know if it's

654
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 1: five hundred yards, but Cooper Gallop ceedee lamb. They are

655
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: going to have their way with this giant secondary. So

656
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 1: we'll see how it plays out. But Cowboys in a

657
00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: tough spot that was road to victory presented by the

658
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 1: United States Marine Corps Mark Snakes, do you baby sneaks

659
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: to me, I will go rams at Washington. I kind

660
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: of want to see what happens with this Washington offense.

661
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 1: Like we know that Dwayne Haskins is now been benched.

662
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,719
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen, the Kyle Allen of ex Panther's fame, if

663
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: you want to call it that. From a Seattle goes

664
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 1: in there, I mean, Kyle Allen to me, like I

665
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: I fell in love with him early, had that game

666
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 1: right out of the gate where he threw four touchdowns,

667
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 1: no picks and looked like an aggressive down field thrower.

668
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 1: But then he had stretches of incredible turnover scenarios that

669
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 1: just completely deep six that team, and he wound up

670
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 1: as the least deep, past deep, accurate deep passer in

671
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 1: the league. So, you know, I don't know why the

672
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 1: switch was made at this point other than they've completely

673
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: given up on Dwayne Haskins and it's a tough situation

674
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 1: for him. You're a second year quarterback under a completely

675
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: new regime that by all accounts is ready to draft

676
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 1: another quarterback next off season. So tough role. And Kyle

677
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 1: All and to I, what's that hippie with your theory? Please?

678
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 1: I have a theory. I think Ronrivert never liked Dayne Haskins,

679
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 1: and it's his right, his decision. He I think he

680
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: kind of had it in his mind, probably before he

681
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 1: even took the job, when he was studying tape of

682
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: last season He's like, Ah, this guy's no good. And

683
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: then in a truncated training camp where he didn't, you know,

684
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: wow him, and then start to the season, River already

685
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 1: knows that this is his show and he's gonna want

686
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 1: his quarterback, and he's kind of made that decision that

687
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 1: Haskins is never gonna be his guy. So, uh, that's

688
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 1: thanks for Haskins. But Greg also he's gonna he'll get

689
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: a fresh start somewhere else next year. And getting out

690
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 1: of Washington is not the worst thing in the world either. No,

691
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 1: probably not, but I I expect he'll get another chance

692
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: this year. I expect we'll see Alex Smith start at

693
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 1: some point. Alex Smith was made the backup and Haskins

694
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 1: will be number three, which is which is fascinating to me.

695
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: I I don't think it's a big mistake to to

696
00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 1: bench Dwayne Haskins when he's not ready to play right now.

697
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 1: We're in this weird era where you have to succeed

698
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 1: right away and he's in his second year. It's like

699
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 1: some quarterbacks can get better over time, like we've seen that.

700
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 1: And I think if you watch Haskins play this year,

701
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 1: including last week. I know people are kind of on

702
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 1: them for benching him after a three yard game, but

703
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: if you watch that game, his decision making him holding

704
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: onto the ball forever, him missing some open throws. He

705
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: has struggled, and so what's the point of putting out

706
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: a quarterback that's not ready? Now? Is Kyle Allen gonna

707
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 1: be any better? I have my doubts, but you can

708
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 1: tell Scott Turner, their coordinator who was with Alan Um,

709
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 1: has some belief in him. When when you see the

710
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 1: rap sheet pregame report on you know, NFL game day

711
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 1: morning Dan, like last week before the game, that's like

712
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: they're considering benching Dwayne Haskins. It's like it's over, Like,

713
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:45,919
Speaker 1: don't even put him in that game. You've already made

714
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 1: your decision. And I think that's fine, and I and

715
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: I really believe Alan and probably Smith will struggle eventually too,

716
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: and we'll Haskins will get one more chance. Well that

717
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 1: that's fine, but that's not by design. It's because you're

718
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,839
Speaker 1: you're one of these teams with no quarterback essentially. I mean,

719
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,400
Speaker 1: it would be incredible to see Alex Smith play, though,

720
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 1: I think that that would be one of the more

721
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 1: They're ready for it right, doesn't make anybody else nervous.

722
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,120
Speaker 1: I just I mean, I hear that, but like he's

723
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 1: been checked out by doctors and they asked that to

724
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,240
Speaker 1: Rivera and he said, look at if our doctors say

725
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:15,640
Speaker 1: that he can do what he can do it. I mean,

726
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,759
Speaker 1: if you're Haskins and you're at number three to meet,

727
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 1: I don't know who a buyer would be, but are

728
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: you potentially thinking about shopping Dwayne Haskins this season for

729
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 1: next to nothing if he's been buried down at the

730
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 1: number three position? I mean, it's just an unusual situation

731
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 1: for a second year quarterback that should have more rope,

732
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:33,799
Speaker 1: I think. I mean, I I agree with Gregg, he's

733
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 1: not playing well at all, But I mean, young quarterbacks play,

734
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 1: they don't sit. They don't get relegated to third, the

735
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 1: third spot at this point in it's very unusual. And uh,

736
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,320
Speaker 1: by the way, they did it again, Greg, the Washington

737
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 1: football team down thirteen with four and a half minutes

738
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 1: to go, facing a fourth and six at midfield, they

739
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: punted that servera putting up that white flag again. But

740
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 1: you have like akable four fourth down. Why are you

741
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,880
Speaker 1: putting the ball away? What are we doing here? He

742
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 1: keeps it. He says he wants to play Alan because

743
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,360
Speaker 1: he sees there's an opportunity to go win the NFC East.

744
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 1: And you know, it's funny they mentioned they kind of

745
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: like the upcoming schedule. Well that that good upcoming schedule

746
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: starts next week because you're playing the Rams this week,

747
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:21,400
Speaker 1: a very professional team. I'm just amazed that the Rams

748
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:25,359
Speaker 1: have like totally transition to the most run heavy team

749
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,440
Speaker 1: in the league. They are. They are the number one

750
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 1: running team in the league according to Football Outsiders. And

751
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,360
Speaker 1: it's not just like, oh they're efficient, No, they're like

752
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: running it every down. They're running it down your throat.

753
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,360
Speaker 1: It's a tougher matchup this week gainst Washington, but it's like,

754
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 1: I think that's all you're gonna need to do against

755
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,239
Speaker 1: washing It. It's it's crazy that McVeigh has really gone

756
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: this hard as like, even in neutral situations, we're gonna

757
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 1: be running on second and ten and it's working pretty well.

758
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I would say this though they were asleep

759
00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,600
Speaker 1: at the wheel against the Giants until the final like

760
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,880
Speaker 1: eight minutes of that game. I mean, it's and I

761
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 1: trust the work work their way out of that, but

762
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:58,919
Speaker 1: that was not a good performance. I feel like those

763
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: games happened to every team every once in ahime especially

764
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,000
Speaker 1: you kind of played down to the level of a

765
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 1: team that stinks and the good teams find a way

766
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 1: to get out of there with the w Yeah to

767
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,280
Speaker 1: your to your point, Greg. The rams top three running

768
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: backs have all had at least twelve carries in a

769
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: game uh this season through four weeks. So they're just

770
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 1: like running it down the throat with all these different options.

771
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 1: And what a blessing for the NFC West this year

772
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 1: to get the NFC East on their schedule. The Rams

773
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 1: are three and oh and I think they'll be four

774
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 1: and oh after Sunday. All right, I am up next.

775
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:34,400
Speaker 1: Let us let us pray, all right, philadelp The Eagles

776
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:39,839
Speaker 1: at Pittsburgh Steelers, the Battle of Pennsylvania. iBOT. That has

777
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:43,799
Speaker 1: anybody done that yet? No, that's new. That's the key

778
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:49,080
Speaker 1: Stone State keyth Stone Scramble. All right. I'm excited to

779
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:52,839
Speaker 1: see the Eagles with some momentum if they could really

780
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 1: start to roll here. I don't know where we're at

781
00:37:56,600 --> 00:38:00,040
Speaker 1: right now with their skill players and if car and

782
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 1: Wentz is going to have more help. But I did.

783
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 1: I really enjoyed his performance with nothing on Sunday night,

784
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: especially the deep shot to uh folk Caam. He just

785
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:14,320
Speaker 1: goes by his last name for me, what is it? Travis?

786
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: Travis foam fallam uh. And now you have a chance

787
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 1: to stack up some wins again in a terrible division.

788
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:22,960
Speaker 1: So I like the Eagles is the favorite in the

789
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,880
Speaker 1: NFC East and on the Steelers side and on the

790
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 1: Steeler side of things, I don't know. Like Ben Roethlisberger

791
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:33,239
Speaker 1: was talking this week how he feels, you know, that

792
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: they were kind of putting a tough spot here and

793
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: he especially he's coming off this elbow injury and he

794
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,520
Speaker 1: felt like he was getting into a group. I get it.

795
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's stinks. I mean, the Steelers just

796
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:45,360
Speaker 1: got caught up in this COVID madness. But at the

797
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 1: same time, just like every other team has to do,

798
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,960
Speaker 1: you just have to roll and adapt. So we'll see

799
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:52,839
Speaker 1: if that makes a difference if they come out looking

800
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 1: a little clunky. Uh that I like the Steelers in

801
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 1: this game, but I think we have a nice competitive game.

802
00:38:57,760 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 1: I love this as a value pick in the draft

803
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 1: right now. Isn't it interesting that, like you get Mike

804
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 1: Tomlin a week ago giving you really pretty badass quotes

805
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,280
Speaker 1: about the fact that listen, Corona, no Corona, the Pittsburgh

806
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: Steelers are all business. We're gonna do whatever it takes

807
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 1: no excuses and then playing according to type. Big Ben

808
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 1: is sort of whining and complaining about it, and we

809
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,120
Speaker 1: didn't get our way, and it's like everyone's just kind

810
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:22,440
Speaker 1: of kind of roll with this. I feel like we

811
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 1: haven't watched the Steelers and Ages, but to me, the

812
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,240
Speaker 1: one guy that stands out that's working on that team,

813
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:29,799
Speaker 1: Eric Ebron, has been a great fit for them. I

814
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 1: just I'm watching the Eagles and Dan, I'm appreciate that

815
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 1: you enjoyed the performance on Sunday night. I do not

816
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 1: like boring teams. The Eagles to me, are like the

817
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,759
Speaker 1: most boring team out there right now. I'm not and

818
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,280
Speaker 1: they need to win me back over. I am tired

819
00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,799
Speaker 1: of predicting them for the playoffs and everything else. Show

820
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 1: me something. For two years in a row, they've been

821
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 1: dull to the eyes. Carson Wentz is fun to watch it,

822
00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:52,840
Speaker 1: and now he's kind of you know, he's starting to

823
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 1: run a lot more. I mean, he's erratic, but you're

824
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:57,439
Speaker 1: not sure what you're gonna get. We don't know who's

825
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,120
Speaker 1: gonna play at receiver in this game for either team.

826
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,879
Speaker 1: We could get the Shawan Jackson and Alston Jeffrey back

827
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 1: for the Eagles. Uh. Juju didn't practice, the Auntie Johnson

828
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,839
Speaker 1: didn't practice, So Ben should maybe be happy they got

829
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 1: that week off because his receivers are still a little

830
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:15,120
Speaker 1: banged up. It's two really good pass rushes. Uh. The

831
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:18,839
Speaker 1: Eagles have that defensive line going right now. They're they're

832
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 1: among the league leaders in sacks. They can bring waves

833
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: of guys. But there's only one decent offensive line in

834
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,000
Speaker 1: this game, and that's Pittsburgh. So when you have Pittsburgh

835
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:30,240
Speaker 1: on defense, them coming after Carson Wentz with that blitz.

836
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 1: You saw Stefan too. It had his best game in

837
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,840
Speaker 1: Week three before we lost the Steelers from the schedule

838
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 1: for a week. And it's like they they are the

839
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:41,120
Speaker 1: team I think that can win with two pass rushers

840
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,800
Speaker 1: up front on any given play, more than any team.

841
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: And going up against this Eagles line, which is so

842
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 1: banged up. We don't know about Lane Johnson either. Uh.

843
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:50,960
Speaker 1: To me, that is a mismatch and that's why I'm

844
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 1: locking up the Steelers. Like Okay, Okay, I like that.

845
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,799
Speaker 1: I think that's a solid lock. For as much as

846
00:40:56,840 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 1: I kind of admire the moxie of Cars and Wentz

847
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:02,319
Speaker 1: and their ability to I mean that was a nice

848
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 1: win on the road in prime time. To find a

849
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 1: way to win in San Francisco with all those variables

850
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: working against them, I think that this is going to

851
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 1: be a tough task for them. I think it's gonna

852
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:16,920
Speaker 1: be a very tough task. Um all right, up next

853
00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:20,879
Speaker 1: Greg on the draft, I'll go Carolina Atlanta. I love

854
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:24,480
Speaker 1: this Panthers team. I uh, I'm kind of like you,

855
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 1: Mark and that I am gonna totally crowned Matt Rule

856
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,160
Speaker 1: too early. Like I am so impressed with the coaching

857
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: job that he's doing. Teddy Bridgewater is on pace for

858
00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:37,320
Speaker 1: yards and that aide that's rising Dan, you know, Robby

859
00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 1: Anderson's on pace for fifteen hundred yards. Their defense after

860
00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:43,960
Speaker 1: just I just kind of like assumed they were going

861
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: to be a joke all year. Their rookies are playing

862
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 1: pretty well, Derek Brown and yetur gross Matos. You know,

863
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: I thought they were gonna be an embarrassment. I was

864
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 1: thinking a lot in this game up to until I

865
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,279
Speaker 1: saw you guys kind of take it with some you know,

866
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 1: Shorter puts here and decided I'm not gonna get as

867
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 1: creative use. But I this Carolina team, what what an indictment.

868
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,160
Speaker 1: This would be of dan Quinn if Matt Rule goes

869
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,360
Speaker 1: in there with an underman team and that's coaching. Is

870
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,839
Speaker 1: there anything else? Is there anything else that we can

871
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 1: indict poor dan Quinn for he's already I mean, he's

872
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,839
Speaker 1: a dog that's been kicked so many times. Like what

873
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:18,839
Speaker 1: what could we what could we learn now at this

874
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:21,759
Speaker 1: point to make us think less of where he's at? Well,

875
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,239
Speaker 1: how about out coach Matt Rule? Which tea people are

876
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 1: not doing? They're just not doing it. I mean, who

877
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,879
Speaker 1: thought they were gonna knock off the Cardinals a week ago?

878
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:32,360
Speaker 1: I think it's also it's their coordinators, Joe Brady innovative

879
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 1: on offense doing stuff. I mean that offense is so

880
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,160
Speaker 1: much better than it was a year ago. Phil Snow

881
00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,520
Speaker 1: is an aggressive defensive coordinator. I really am into Mike

882
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 1: davis Man. I know that he's he's moved around a

883
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 1: little bit, but a lot of coaches love him. He

884
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,239
Speaker 1: has a little bit of mark Ingram to him, a

885
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 1: little bit of maybe Pierre Thomas. I just see running

886
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:51,360
Speaker 1: backs of old I like his style. And you know,

887
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 1: Reggie Bonafon has been helpful too. And you said it

888
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,440
Speaker 1: with like Anderson has been a perfect fit. I just

889
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: think this offense is frisky. Teddy Bridgewaters playing as well

890
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 1: as he ever has so to me, I mean, you know,

891
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:06,439
Speaker 1: Atlanta's defense completely crumbled last week and You've got nothing

892
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:09,360
Speaker 1: from Julio Jones. You got nothing from Calvin Ridley. The

893
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:11,480
Speaker 1: offense fell apart, and it's like, if they're not scoring

894
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 1: thirty five points in these games they're in, they're in

895
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:17,760
Speaker 1: a serious hot water. I mean literally nothing from Calvin

896
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,400
Speaker 1: Ridley and it didn't It makes you think about what

897
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:26,240
Speaker 1: is what's the future of Matt Ryan and this whole

898
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 1: this whole regime because it feels like the wrecking balls

899
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,440
Speaker 1: coming to the Falcons at this point. And that is

900
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 1: I mean to go from where they were up three

901
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,080
Speaker 1: and the Super Bowl, and I'm not going to relitigate that.

902
00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 1: Falcons fan's don't worry to where they are now. It's

903
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 1: just been kind of a sad downward trajectory. Uh. They

904
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:44,880
Speaker 1: did get back to the playoffs and even won a

905
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,239
Speaker 1: game the next year, but ever since that, really it's

906
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:52,319
Speaker 1: been a bummer. I you know this narrative Sessler and

907
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:54,319
Speaker 1: now Greg's buying into it that he was the only

908
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 1: one that was truly buying into Matt Rule. I mean,

909
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 1: I love Matt Rule that higher. We had him on

910
00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:01,319
Speaker 1: our show and he was awesome, and he was he's

911
00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 1: a Jersey guy and wait a minute, no, wait a second,

912
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 1: And it was never like a situation like, oh, Matt

913
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 1: Rule is not a good NFL coach. It was like,

914
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:13,239
Speaker 1: let's hold off putting him into Canton and he's held

915
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 1: back to back wins, and that's nice. That's very nice.

916
00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:19,120
Speaker 1: And I think they're making progress and they're ahead of

917
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 1: where people thought they would be, including myself. But at

918
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:24,480
Speaker 1: no point was it like, oh, Matt Rule, he doesn't

919
00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:26,400
Speaker 1: have a chance in this league. I don't think anyone

920
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,560
Speaker 1: was down on him. But I think it's difference in styles, damn,

921
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 1: Because I if anything, if I, if I fault in

922
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,800
Speaker 1: any direction, it's falling in love with a coach before

923
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,279
Speaker 1: he's done anything and just riding that train and seeing

924
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: where it goes. Right, I think you are someone you

925
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:40,520
Speaker 1: want to see a couple ten and six, eleven and

926
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 1: five seasons before we start talking about Matt Rule in

927
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,839
Speaker 1: a certain way. It's just a different approach. Mine is

928
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,759
Speaker 1: equally faulty, but Matt Rule to me, it's about where

929
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: he came before that, he's been a guy that's you know,

930
00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,719
Speaker 1: overseen multiple reclamation projects. And you know, I remember reading

931
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:57,360
Speaker 1: a Peter King thing from June saying the Panthers of

932
00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 1: the team that probably has an excuse to go one

933
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 1: and of team, they've got two coordinators that have never

934
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:03,840
Speaker 1: been at the NFL level. They've got a bunch of

935
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:05,879
Speaker 1: guys on defense who were living in a college dorm

936
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,840
Speaker 1: a year ago, and he's he's turned them into something

937
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 1: interesting very quickly. So it only adds to his stock

938
00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:14,800
Speaker 1: in my mind. Yeah, I like to get back for

939
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 1: defensive starters, by the way, in this game. I mean

940
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: in dan Quinn's defense. He was missing six defensive starters

941
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:23,239
Speaker 1: last week. It looks like four of them are back,

942
00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:25,920
Speaker 1: like three in the secondary in Tach McKinley. So it's

943
00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,400
Speaker 1: it's not quite as easy a matchup for Carolina as

944
00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:32,600
Speaker 1: it was for Green Bay. Alright, Greg, it snakes to you,

945
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:38,240
Speaker 1: my friend. Alright, let's go with the late afternoon game.

946
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: What do we got. Let's go forty nine Ers Dolphins.

947
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 1: The cavalry is arriving for this. You know, practiced this

948
00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 1: week with Jimmy g on the field and raheem moosted

949
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:55,799
Speaker 1: on the field and Debot and Kittle and Ayu or

950
00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 1: ayak they're now calling him. I like that one. I

951
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:01,360
Speaker 1: like that. So the first time they've been on the

952
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 1: field together period, like including practices, uh, this entire season,

953
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 1: and they're still banged up defensively, especially in the secondary,

954
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 1: And that makes you think that Ryan Fitzpatrick can do

955
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:16,240
Speaker 1: just enough to remind you that the Dolphins are well coached,

956
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,640
Speaker 1: but then lose a close game. But man, Jimmy G

957
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:22,040
Speaker 1: has to love how how it worked out. I mean,

958
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,000
Speaker 1: it would have it would like them to win the game.

959
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:26,560
Speaker 1: But it's like, all right, you can quiet down with

960
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 1: the talk. I'm gonna re enter the lineup against this

961
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 1: Dolphins defense, which is no better, by the way than

962
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: the day Brian Flores arrived and I got all my

963
00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 1: guys back, and now I'm gonna go put up some points.

964
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:41,640
Speaker 1: Beautifully set up for Jimmy G's arrival. I mean, because

965
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 1: there is it is not talked about this earlier in

966
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 1: the week, but it's like, you don't like to just

967
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,919
Speaker 1: put a loss on one player. But Nick Bolins lost

968
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:52,760
Speaker 1: that game. On Sunday at the Eagles had no business

969
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 1: win in that game, but Mullins refused to let the

970
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 1: Niners win it, and so that puts them in a

971
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:01,560
Speaker 1: situation now where Jimmy g again looks like the Golden Boy,

972
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:03,920
Speaker 1: and there's no question or controversy. He doesn't have to

973
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:05,840
Speaker 1: look over his shoulder if he has a couple of

974
00:47:05,840 --> 00:47:08,240
Speaker 1: bad weeks out of the gate coming back slow, because

975
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,239
Speaker 1: they're not gonna say, oh, maybe Nick Mullins is the

976
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 1: answer after what happened on Sunday Night football. So I

977
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:15,319
Speaker 1: agree with you. I think it's a great spot for

978
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:19,759
Speaker 1: the Niners where they're getting healthy, gets a Dolphins team that, yes,

979
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:23,000
Speaker 1: they're frisky, you got fits magic. I agree Brian Flores

980
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,759
Speaker 1: has done a nice job overall there, but this also

981
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:27,800
Speaker 1: looks like a team that could travel across the country

982
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,919
Speaker 1: and just get she lacked by a San Francisco team

983
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 1: that has a lot more talent. Yeah, I mean, I

984
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:35,799
Speaker 1: think it's it's also the winner is Kyle Shanahan not

985
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:38,600
Speaker 1: having to answer questions or go through the rigamarole which

986
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 1: quarterback deserves to start clean? You're right, it just cleans

987
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,960
Speaker 1: that board. I mean, I when I look at the Dolphins,

988
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,040
Speaker 1: I guess the frisky I mean, I don't know. This

989
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:48,799
Speaker 1: seems sort of like been in every game they are

990
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:51,160
Speaker 1: bether than the Patriots game. They've been in every game

991
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 1: against some good teams. I think they're well coached. I mean,

992
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,839
Speaker 1: we all are on the Brian Flores thing. I'm just wondering, like,

993
00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,920
Speaker 1: how long until you give to a chance to play?

994
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 1: I mean, what what if to Ah could flip the

995
00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:04,319
Speaker 1: switch and turn them from frisky to winning some of

996
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 1: these games like being close as nice? But that's that's

997
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:10,399
Speaker 1: better at their problem though, he they say to uh

998
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 1: isn't ready for whatever. And if they say that this

999
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 1: is this is Ryan Fitzpatrick's final start because he isn't ready,

1000
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 1: turns to He's starting this Sunday very quickly in the NFL.

1001
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, though, You're gonna put him behind And

1002
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:30,520
Speaker 1: this is where I think I'd be a little worried

1003
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,400
Speaker 1: if I'm a Dolphins fan. You're gonna put him behind

1004
00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 1: two tackles, including your first round pick, by the way,

1005
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,920
Speaker 1: who are ranked in the bottom ten of PFF qualifiers.

1006
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,239
Speaker 1: The whole point of this season is to find some

1007
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:45,960
Speaker 1: players and some young players, and I'm looking around, you're

1008
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,280
Speaker 1: gonna get Byron Jones back. He was a nice free inside.

1009
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 1: I'm looking around and who is it right now? You

1010
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 1: know it's it's sicky, it's Isaiah Ford, Like, who are

1011
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,719
Speaker 1: you getting excited about that that you're taking with some

1012
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:01,040
Speaker 1: of these draft picks. You had three first round picks.

1013
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 1: Austin Jackson struggled. I know it's early, but Igbanogeny struggled.

1014
00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:06,720
Speaker 1: He was another first round pick. I know it's early,

1015
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 1: it's like you you want to start fighting these young players,

1016
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 1: including like two is not gonna like he's a football player.

1017
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:17,160
Speaker 1: He was drafted to a football team to be their

1018
00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:20,120
Speaker 1: football quarterback. Like, I understand you're probably not going to

1019
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 1: put him into an ideal situation. But the days of,

1020
00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 1: you know, putting him a guy on the bench for

1021
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: a year and and building up a better situation around him,

1022
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:29,920
Speaker 1: I feel like that's a bygone era in the league,

1023
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:32,640
Speaker 1: right And it's nice to be Brian. You can save

1024
00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:36,799
Speaker 1: for two straight years. We're not gonna put our I mean,

1025
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:39,799
Speaker 1: if you're Brian Flores, though, it's like, how how much

1026
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:42,360
Speaker 1: time is he given to show us what the Dolphins

1027
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 1: really are? I mean, I get I'm more of a

1028
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:47,879
Speaker 1: fan of your three every quarterback into the fire. But

1029
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 1: he's got to start soon. Nobody thought Justin Herbert was ready. Right,

1030
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:58,440
Speaker 1: it's fair do alright, I am up. I believe hamana

1031
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 1: hammahamma I And you know, let me tell you something.

1032
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 1: The Jets are on the board, but Sam Donald is

1033
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,560
Speaker 1: not playing this week. I have no interest in watching

1034
00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:11,160
Speaker 1: the Jets. This Jets team, with this coaching regime, without

1035
00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:13,319
Speaker 1: the quarterback, who's the only kind of piece that we're

1036
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 1: trying to work out right now, that game means nothing

1037
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 1: to me. Take the slate off because I'm not picking

1038
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:21,239
Speaker 1: the game. Denver at New England is my next. I need,

1039
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 1: I need a four pm game. Greg. I'm not taking

1040
00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 1: it from you. I know you're gonna watch it either way,

1041
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:29,320
Speaker 1: but now I'm not gonna watch it. I'm attentionally passing.

1042
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 1: I don't like watching them live every week. This is

1043
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,440
Speaker 1: one I'm I'm fine a little game pass. You can,

1044
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 1: you know, luxuriate a little bit with all right? Good,

1045
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 1: so everybody wins. The cooperation between the Broncos at the Patriots.

1046
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 1: Obviously Cam Newton everything is upside down with his his

1047
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen positive test, But you still gotta like their

1048
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:52,400
Speaker 1: chances here. Um, Brian Hoyer is not starting. That's the

1049
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,879
Speaker 1: only thing I can tell you with certainty. And uh,

1050
00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:58,480
Speaker 1: we're gonna see. Well you don't know that. Well do

1051
00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:00,279
Speaker 1: you think? Do you think after what we saw on

1052
00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:02,759
Speaker 1: Monday night? Bill Belichick is gonna be like, you know what,

1053
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,640
Speaker 1: anyer is still my guy, unless he's really trying to

1054
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,279
Speaker 1: stick it to the media, which he's been known to do,

1055
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 1: uh in the past. So Damian harrisk is a guy

1056
00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:14,560
Speaker 1: Greg that I know you liked what you saw from

1057
00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:17,640
Speaker 1: him last week. This is a bit of a weird game.

1058
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:20,920
Speaker 1: You got uncertainty at the quarterback position all over the place.

1059
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:24,360
Speaker 1: But you imagine the Patriots can take care of business

1060
00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:28,320
Speaker 1: in their building. I'm a little shocked how heavily, Um,

1061
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 1: the Patriots are favored in this game. Uh, it's a

1062
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,319
Speaker 1: lot of faith. So we don't we don't know that

1063
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 1: the matchup could be Drew Lock versus Cam Newton. I mean,

1064
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,760
Speaker 1: there's no no one said that Cam Newton is definitely

1065
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:41,560
Speaker 1: out and the way they do the test if he

1066
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:45,799
Speaker 1: was asymptomatic, I haven't ruled it out mentally. The Patriots,

1067
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:47,880
Speaker 1: you know, as we're taping this, haven't been back in

1068
00:51:47,920 --> 00:51:52,080
Speaker 1: their facility, so Hoyer didn't practice before last week start.

1069
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:55,239
Speaker 1: It's possible after Stephon Gilmour's test, and we haven't done

1070
00:51:55,239 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 1: a podcast um since uh Stephon Gilmore tested positive, it's

1071
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:03,040
Speaker 1: possible the Patriots aren't allowed to practice this week either.

1072
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:06,279
Speaker 1: Hoyer didn't practice before that one, so the matchup could

1073
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:09,479
Speaker 1: be locked. Versus Hoyer could be locked, versus Stidham could

1074
00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:12,359
Speaker 1: be locked, versus Cam could be Brett ripping against any

1075
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 1: one of those three. We don't really know. Lock Drew

1076
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 1: Lock has been at practice for the Broncos. That obviously

1077
00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:21,359
Speaker 1: changes the entire complexion of this game. That them playing

1078
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:23,759
Speaker 1: without stuff on Gilmore changes their defense. I mean, it's

1079
00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:26,440
Speaker 1: all just so messy. Yes, in fact, it's so messy.

1080
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,279
Speaker 1: I don't even think we should really talk too much

1081
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:32,080
Speaker 1: more on this game unless someone has another effect ed

1082
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:35,520
Speaker 1: before we move on. I'm just gonna say that the

1083
00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:39,279
Speaker 1: the Broncos defense has been really competitive and playing well.

1084
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 1: That the Jets game wasn't like their best game. But

1085
00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:45,480
Speaker 1: if it is Stidham or Hoyer, they have been so

1086
00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:49,839
Speaker 1: competitive each game and there's no Gilmore like I think

1087
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:53,239
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick is legitimately worried about what a Vic Fangio

1088
00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:57,920
Speaker 1: defense could do against Hoyer or something Stidham up next.

1089
00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:02,520
Speaker 1: Mark Sessler, all right, well, I will take what is

1090
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:06,359
Speaker 1: nothing less than a bullet to the chest going Cardinals Jets.

1091
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,120
Speaker 1: I guess I'm gonna take this Jets game. I don't

1092
00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:11,480
Speaker 1: like what you did to me there, but now I

1093
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:13,560
Speaker 1: I am going to do it. And I I like

1094
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:18,040
Speaker 1: watching um things just burned to the ground, right and

1095
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 1: and that's what's happening with the Jets a little bit.

1096
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:23,680
Speaker 1: But it doesn't make me um happy at all. For you, Dan,

1097
00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:25,680
Speaker 1: so I you know I'm not taking any place. It

1098
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 1: sounds like a real bittersweet Sunday of viewing coming up

1099
00:53:28,680 --> 00:53:31,799
Speaker 1: for you. It's, uh, you know, that may not be

1100
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,120
Speaker 1: something I'm zoned in on snap after snap, but I

1101
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,800
Speaker 1: would say if if you're the Cardinals, you've got to

1102
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:38,439
Speaker 1: get out of a funk. I mean, where we were

1103
00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:40,480
Speaker 1: with them two weeks ago, it was all Listen, we

1104
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:43,120
Speaker 1: spent all offseason hyping up the Cardinals, and there's one

1105
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:45,799
Speaker 1: of those rare teams that hits the scene and does

1106
00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:48,399
Speaker 1: everything we expected. And they're super frisky and they're gonna

1107
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:51,640
Speaker 1: potentially win the NFC West or slide them right into

1108
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:54,040
Speaker 1: a wild card and then they lose two in a row,

1109
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:57,120
Speaker 1: and I you know, I look watching them against Carolina

1110
00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray like through the air, they just seem a

1111
00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:03,359
Speaker 1: little bit lost to me. I mean, it's essentially the

1112
00:54:03,360 --> 00:54:06,960
Speaker 1: ball is going to DeAndre Hopkins um at incredible amounts

1113
00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:09,440
Speaker 1: and in very few other people. I don't think Kenyan

1114
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 1: Drake is get is giving us everything that we thought

1115
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:13,800
Speaker 1: from Kenyan Drake at this point, and I'm just wondering

1116
00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:17,359
Speaker 1: our people catching up to Cliff Kingsbury's offense a little bit.

1117
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:21,160
Speaker 1: Are these parts just not necessarily working together? I mean again, though,

1118
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:24,000
Speaker 1: like we've talked about the Jets, to be real, it's

1119
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:27,160
Speaker 1: hard to scout teams that play the Jets because of

1120
00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:29,520
Speaker 1: what they've been this season, which is next to nothing.

1121
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 1: So I would be surprised if Arizona can't go into

1122
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 1: MetLife and do what they want to do in this game.

1123
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 1: The Jets defense has not been a total disaster, but

1124
00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:42,440
Speaker 1: I don't think. I mean, they're coming off a game

1125
00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:47,400
Speaker 1: where they've been getting killed all season, uh pass and

1126
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,560
Speaker 1: the run, and we're coming off a game people are wondering,

1127
00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:53,319
Speaker 1: why isn't Adam Gates fired yet Well, and I'll give Greg,

1128
00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:55,680
Speaker 1: I'll give you shout out on this one because you

1129
00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:57,920
Speaker 1: pounded the drum on this in the past. Is that

1130
00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:00,760
Speaker 1: Greg Williams is having another one of those a tenure

1131
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:04,279
Speaker 1: is where he's excellent one year and then dog poop

1132
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:08,799
Speaker 1: the next and six personal fouls against the Broncos by

1133
00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 1: the defense in addition to not being able to figure

1134
00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:14,680
Speaker 1: out a way to stop Brett Rippy and beyond those

1135
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:17,920
Speaker 1: I know it's Brett Rippon, beyond those interceptions, just a

1136
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:21,480
Speaker 1: weird game on Thursday night. You can't fire Adam Gates

1137
00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:27,239
Speaker 1: and then promote Greg Williams Sean Jefferson, I mean, I

1138
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:32,960
Speaker 1: promote their assistant head coach, but promote their special teams coach. Yeah,

1139
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:35,400
Speaker 1: but you need to have and if nothing else, Adam

1140
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:39,280
Speaker 1: Gates has experience. The team's going nowhere. Uh, you can't

1141
00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 1: just like take somebody and make him the head coach

1142
00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:45,040
Speaker 1: for twelve games that has no experience. Things could get

1143
00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:48,120
Speaker 1: even more embarrassing. Why not? I mean, it gives him

1144
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:51,799
Speaker 1: at the point that it's humane. I think it's at

1145
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:54,160
Speaker 1: the point where it's humane. If they lose. This is

1146
00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,200
Speaker 1: like a lose lose, because if Flacco plays well and

1147
00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:58,440
Speaker 1: they and they like won this game, that would almost

1148
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:00,480
Speaker 1: be bad for the Jets. It makes him darned to

1149
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:02,919
Speaker 1: look bad. But yeah, I think it's humane. If you've

1150
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:04,800
Speaker 1: made the choice to move on from Gates, which I

1151
00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:08,000
Speaker 1: would imagine they are, just put Sean Jefferson and he's

1152
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:10,439
Speaker 1: been a coach for sixteen years, easy assistant head coach.

1153
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,680
Speaker 1: I give him experience. I think he would like that.

1154
00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:15,799
Speaker 1: Or Joe Vett or or Boyer, their special team's coach

1155
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:18,319
Speaker 1: has done a good job. I don't know, Like, what's

1156
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:20,920
Speaker 1: the point of keeping that's a fair point. I just

1157
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,920
Speaker 1: as long as and don't put anything past the New

1158
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:27,839
Speaker 1: York Jets if their organizational feeling on this is it's

1159
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:30,399
Speaker 1: Greg Williams or Adam Gays. I am fine with keeping

1160
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:33,839
Speaker 1: getting Gates there until New Years. Even then move right.

1161
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:36,839
Speaker 1: The only thing though, if you really want to go out.

1162
00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:39,279
Speaker 1: One thing that the Panthers did this last year with

1163
00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:41,759
Speaker 1: Matt Rule was they got rid of Ron Rivera and

1164
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:45,480
Speaker 1: they started the process of vetting and looking at candidates early.

1165
00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:47,239
Speaker 1: And if you're the Jets, you don't want to get

1166
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:49,319
Speaker 1: caught not getting the guy you want, so you can

1167
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:51,360
Speaker 1: do that while Adam Gays is still the head coach.

1168
00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:54,200
Speaker 1: You can. But I mean, I think it's a clear

1169
00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:57,759
Speaker 1: for with candidates that are out there, some of them

1170
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,040
Speaker 1: are not gonna want to talk to you with a

1171
00:56:59,080 --> 00:57:01,160
Speaker 1: head coach in place. And I think it a game

1172
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:04,799
Speaker 1: the Cardinals. This is a huge decision. What New York does.

1173
00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:07,759
Speaker 1: This is Sam Donald's career, Like, you cannot go get

1174
00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:11,479
Speaker 1: this wrong and higher the next Ballyhood version of Adam Gates,

1175
00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,080
Speaker 1: who is just simply Adam Gates. You gotta nail this thing.

1176
00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:16,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna call Joe Brady is the next Jets coach

1177
00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 1: or Bill O'Brien one or the other. Greg What we're

1178
00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:20,440
Speaker 1: gonna trade for Matt Rule You almost had him before.

1179
00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:23,800
Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's a big game for the Cards.

1180
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 1: The Cards just lost the Lions and the Panthers, and

1181
00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 1: the Panthers game was convincing. That was a beat down.

1182
00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:32,840
Speaker 1: They have to win this game. They're not take advantage

1183
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:36,840
Speaker 1: of this easy schedule and they're beautiful. You're they're passing game.

1184
00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:38,760
Speaker 1: You're right, is a mess and if we're if we're

1185
00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 1: totally honest about it, it's never been above average since

1186
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:45,040
Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury and Murray has been there as a passing game.

1187
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:47,640
Speaker 1: I think it'll get there, but like it's been a

1188
00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 1: good running game, they're just not there yet. I think

1189
00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:52,320
Speaker 1: they will in time, but they're they're tough to watch

1190
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:55,040
Speaker 1: right now. It's funny, much more reliant on they gotta win.

1191
00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:57,600
Speaker 1: They gotta win this game. You gotta win this game.

1192
00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,760
Speaker 1: If they lose it, it's a tire fier. There's they

1193
00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:04,040
Speaker 1: were more reliant on Kyler Murray running than Baltimore is

1194
00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 1: with Lamar. I mean it's and it's like that's there's

1195
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:10,080
Speaker 1: quarters at a time where that's the throwing the differences.

1196
00:58:10,200 --> 00:58:12,800
Speaker 1: Murray is just scrambling. The difference is they're not even

1197
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:15,280
Speaker 1: calling those plays. It's Murray just scrambling, right, He's getting

1198
00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:17,280
Speaker 1: them out of jams. So it's it's funny how quickly

1199
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 1: things change, because two weeks ago, the entire story was

1200
00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:25,280
Speaker 1: Cliff Kingsbury and Kyler Murray are leading a revolution, and

1201
00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 1: now we're asking these questions. That's just funny exactly. That's sports.

1202
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:34,080
Speaker 1: That's football. Have one more game, Mark Seessler, close it out, alright,

1203
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,760
Speaker 1: we've got what am I I feel like I've wedded

1204
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:40,120
Speaker 1: to total disaster scenarios. This week, I got the Texans, like,

1205
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:43,480
Speaker 1: you know, fresh off of firing Bill O'Brien. Well, you

1206
00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:45,880
Speaker 1: know what, they played Jacksonville. So there's a little something

1207
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:50,320
Speaker 1: alike there this game. To me, I guess it's like, no,

1208
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:55,160
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm just done, prim I'm just done

1209
00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:57,040
Speaker 1: with I'm done with the Texans and I and I

1210
00:58:57,160 --> 00:58:58,840
Speaker 1: do feel a little annoyed because I have a bunch

1211
00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:01,200
Speaker 1: of games here with teams that I would like watch

1212
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:06,040
Speaker 1: last on game pass. So give him. That's a good move.

1213
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:08,000
Speaker 1: And if he's watching this, I will not do that,

1214
00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:09,960
Speaker 1: but then behind the scenes, that's exactly what I'll do.

1215
00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:13,280
Speaker 1: I to me, it's it's I want to just get

1216
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:15,760
Speaker 1: more of an idea of what what Gardner Minshew is

1217
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:17,600
Speaker 1: because I think it's fair at this point, whether you're

1218
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 1: a minshu Vian or not, to say that this is

1219
00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:22,680
Speaker 1: a streaky quarterback in a streaky offense. I I like

1220
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:25,680
Speaker 1: him overall, but it's tough to say this is this

1221
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 1: is the guy that you're gonna base years off of

1222
00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:30,400
Speaker 1: um with what we're seeing, because it just seems to

1223
00:59:30,440 --> 00:59:32,640
Speaker 1: be up and down. I think that he the offense

1224
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 1: was completely different when DJ Shark was not in there,

1225
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:37,200
Speaker 1: it's compared to when he is. I think that they're

1226
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:40,760
Speaker 1: passing game runs around him entirely. I don't know, it's

1227
00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:43,720
Speaker 1: like it to me. The Jacksonville Jaguars, like are, are

1228
00:59:44,280 --> 00:59:46,840
Speaker 1: a more interesting offense to watch than the Texans have been.

1229
00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:50,440
Speaker 1: I know that, like I like to. But they're the

1230
00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:52,640
Speaker 1: best group in this game. The Jaguars offense, I don't

1231
00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:55,320
Speaker 1: even think there's a question they're a good offense. I

1232
00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:58,080
Speaker 1: don't think they're a good team. Um. I think they

1233
00:59:58,120 --> 01:00:00,760
Speaker 1: moved the ball pretty well, that they they're on time

1234
01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:03,800
Speaker 1: with their throws. Like I, I expect them to put

1235
01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:06,280
Speaker 1: up a lot of points. But I think they're probably

1236
01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:08,200
Speaker 1: the worst defense in the league. And man, there's a

1237
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:11,120
Speaker 1: lot of bad defenses, so you look, the Texans could

1238
01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:13,600
Speaker 1: be in that mix. I don't think they're quite there.

1239
01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:16,200
Speaker 1: I would put the Jaguars as the very worst. If

1240
01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:19,320
Speaker 1: you look at the quarterbacks the Jaguars have played, all

1241
01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:22,440
Speaker 1: of them have had their best game by far against

1242
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:25,320
Speaker 1: the Jaguars. Joe Burrow finally gets off and gets protected

1243
01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:29,320
Speaker 1: against the Jaguars. Ryan Fitzpatrick, you know, you know, takes

1244
01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:31,760
Speaker 1: it back on Thursday Night football and shows his chest

1245
01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:34,640
Speaker 1: there against the Jaguars. The only game where Philip Rivers

1246
01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:37,080
Speaker 1: went up and down the field was against the Jaguars.

1247
01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,880
Speaker 1: The Titans put a thirty three points. This defense is

1248
01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:43,440
Speaker 1: terrible and the Texans offense is not terrible, so this

1249
01:00:43,520 --> 01:00:45,440
Speaker 1: should be a nice little Hey, we got rid of

1250
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:48,760
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien. We want to show you that everyone's happy

1251
01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:51,960
Speaker 1: under Uncle Romeo Cornell. Let's go get a victim. I

1252
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:56,200
Speaker 1: came very I came this close to locking up the

1253
01:00:56,320 --> 01:01:01,080
Speaker 1: Texans based on the no Brian factor at play here.

1254
01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:04,560
Speaker 1: And there was the report this week that J. J. Watt,

1255
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:07,520
Speaker 1: who's the face over there with Deshaun Watson, was in

1256
01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:10,360
Speaker 1: a shouting match of some kind with O'Brien a couple

1257
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:14,040
Speaker 1: of weeks ago in practice that led to O'Brien losing

1258
01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:17,280
Speaker 1: the team for goods. So Romeo is like we we

1259
01:01:17,360 --> 01:01:20,680
Speaker 1: talked about with Seth Paine, who covers Houston Sports down

1260
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:23,560
Speaker 1: there in Texas. Romeo is that guy that everybody likes it,

1261
01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:27,560
Speaker 1: just hangs around and he's he's down with emotions, he's

1262
01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:30,840
Speaker 1: cool with promotions. Uh So, he's just somebody that everybody

1263
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:33,400
Speaker 1: roots for and wants to play hard. For uh, it

1264
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:36,000
Speaker 1: feels like a perfect spot for a winless team that's

1265
01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:39,760
Speaker 1: not an oh and sixteen team the to get right

1266
01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:43,120
Speaker 1: against a deeply flawed Jaguars team with up and down

1267
01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:46,560
Speaker 1: offense and a truly dreadful defense. So, I mean, the

1268
01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:51,280
Speaker 1: Jaguars are on pace to set franchise worst marks for

1269
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:56,160
Speaker 1: points allowed per game, yardage per game. We are not

1270
01:01:56,440 --> 01:01:58,840
Speaker 1: that far away from Saxonville. I mean, I know it

1271
01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:01,919
Speaker 1: feels that way, but that was like three seasons ago,

1272
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:05,280
Speaker 1: and it's gotten from that point to here, which is

1273
01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:08,480
Speaker 1: such an organizational failure, uh that I don't know what

1274
01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:10,640
Speaker 1: else to say. I would say though, they I mean

1275
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:14,000
Speaker 1: their defense last year, remember how teams were running on them,

1276
01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:16,520
Speaker 1: literally destroying them on the ground. So they've been a

1277
01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:19,720
Speaker 1: bad defense for a while. There is one insanely annoying

1278
01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 1: nuggets to me, and it happened late, you know, late yesterday,

1279
01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:25,760
Speaker 1: that this Jack easter Be character is now essentially anointed

1280
01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:27,720
Speaker 1: himself general manager. I mean, this is one of the

1281
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:30,800
Speaker 1: most absurd things that has happened in the National Football

1282
01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:35,160
Speaker 1: League in my entire life. This power hungry individual is

1283
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:38,280
Speaker 1: the most magnuvaliant in person, and it's sorry it's not

1284
01:02:38,400 --> 01:02:43,040
Speaker 1: just this guy. This is this is the This is

1285
01:02:43,080 --> 01:02:45,120
Speaker 1: the kind of thing that drives me nuts. This guy

1286
01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:48,160
Speaker 1: who was essentially a culture coach for the Patriots is

1287
01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:51,360
Speaker 1: now the general manager of the Texans. I don't trust anything.

1288
01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:55,960
Speaker 1: Even even worse than that. They say, well, don't worry

1289
01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:59,840
Speaker 1: about it. Um, the plan is he'll take a step back.

1290
01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:02,960
Speaker 1: We're gonna hire a GM. Well guess who's hiring that GM,

1291
01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:06,600
Speaker 1: old Jack Easter give me a break by the you

1292
01:03:06,760 --> 01:03:09,240
Speaker 1: are hey if the tech I feel like the Texans ownership.

1293
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:12,439
Speaker 1: This is a case where the media does sometimes matter.

1294
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,000
Speaker 1: I think the media has a chance in Houston, and

1295
01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:17,760
Speaker 1: they might just do it to Bury Easter be enough

1296
01:03:17,960 --> 01:03:20,400
Speaker 1: and this plan enough, and I'm gonna help as much

1297
01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:23,880
Speaker 1: as I can over the next three months. Um that

1298
01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:28,640
Speaker 1: this is a bad idea because you have Deshaun Watson,

1299
01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:32,520
Speaker 1: you have that, you have the stadium, you have everything.

1300
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:34,760
Speaker 1: You've got cash like they always have the most cash

1301
01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:37,160
Speaker 1: of any team other than like the Cowboys. You got

1302
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:40,440
Speaker 1: it all. And if i'm Eric b enemy, for instance,

1303
01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:42,919
Speaker 1: I'm not taking a job with Jack easterby I would

1304
01:03:42,960 --> 01:03:45,640
Speaker 1: tell my agent if I'm the enemy, and you don't

1305
01:03:45,640 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 1: do this publicly. You tell your agent to tell them

1306
01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:51,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to do the interview if Easterby's running it,

1307
01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:54,320
Speaker 1: and you know you enough people from the league, you know,

1308
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:57,760
Speaker 1: start whispering like that, and who knows people you people

1309
01:03:57,880 --> 01:03:59,920
Speaker 1: got Bill O'Brien fired. I'm sure you could do this

1310
01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:04,240
Speaker 1: as well. It's him as a person at all, but

1311
01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:07,520
Speaker 1: he's an evil as a dragon in a medieval tale.

1312
01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:11,360
Speaker 1: So let's run him out of town as well. Past

1313
01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:14,480
Speaker 1: the same process or jets took. That's how you got,

1314
01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 1: you know, Adam Case and not talk about hit back

1315
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:22,800
Speaker 1: at me, No, but you talk about a progress stopper.

1316
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:25,480
Speaker 1: I mean, Jack Easterby lodged in your front office is

1317
01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:27,480
Speaker 1: a progress stopper. If you're trying to get a candidate

1318
01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:32,480
Speaker 1: worth as salt, blind faith in your leaders or anything

1319
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:37,600
Speaker 1: will get you killed. Bruce Springsteen, Texans fans, Texans players

1320
01:04:37,960 --> 01:04:45,360
Speaker 1: take note. What a way to end it, all right? Weird?

1321
01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:48,440
Speaker 1: I hope, I hope Holly Easterby, daughter of Jack Easterby,

1322
01:04:48,520 --> 01:04:51,600
Speaker 1: is not a podcast listener. Blinds and packers are off.

1323
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:55,320
Speaker 1: We didn't even on We didn't touch on Tennessee, uh

1324
01:04:55,400 --> 01:05:00,520
Speaker 1: and Buffalo for obvious reasons. But we will be back

1325
01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:02,600
Speaker 1: on Sunday. The only thing we can tell you, actually,

1326
01:05:02,600 --> 01:05:06,080
Speaker 1: I can't even tell you this. We we presume that

1327
01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:10,000
Speaker 1: we will be back on Sunday night for the flagship

1328
01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:13,320
Speaker 1: programing around the NFL podcast. Uh that is the plan.

1329
01:05:13,840 --> 01:05:16,240
Speaker 1: Uh so please, if that is indeed the case, check

1330
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:18,960
Speaker 1: out that show to recap. That recaps every show we

1331
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:23,120
Speaker 1: just talked about here. Uh, thank you to everybody for watching.
