- 0:01Speaker 1: And now move the Sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Bucky Brooks.
- 0:07Speaker 2: What's up, everybody?
- 0:08Speaker 3: Welcome to move the sticks, DJ, Bucky and Rhett together.
- 0:12Speaker 3: We normally start off the show, guys by jumping right
- 0:14Speaker 3: into it and getting to a Monday night affair, which
- 0:16Speaker 3: we are going to get to. Was an awesome game
- 0:18Speaker 3: between the Chiefs and the Eagles. But we have some
- 0:20Speaker 3: breaking news as we're getting cranked up here, so I
- 0:22Speaker 3: figure we start there, Buck, I'll give you the news
- 0:25Speaker 3: right now. Matt Canada, he's out. Mike Tomlin decides to
- 0:28Speaker 3: make the move. He said it was his choice and
- 0:30Speaker 3: his choice alone. But they are looking, or actually I
- 0:33Speaker 3: should say they've found a new offensive coordinator on staff.
- 0:36Speaker 3: Mike Sullivan's gonna end up calling the plays for him.
- 0:38Speaker 3: So Matt Canada is out. What are your thoughts.
- 0:41Speaker 4: Well, I'm a little surprised that, look, you're gonna make
- 0:44Speaker 4: the move. At this point of the season, there are
- 0:47Speaker 4: plenty of times where people talked about Matt Canada not
- 0:50Speaker 4: getting the job done, the offense not having rhythm. I
- 0:53Speaker 4: just want to I'm just curious as to why what
- 0:56Speaker 4: was the tipping point? What was it about what he
- 0:59Speaker 4: saw in the Cleveland game that led them to make
- 1:01Speaker 4: the move. I think it's unfortunate for the Stillers in
- 1:05Speaker 4: the midst of a playoff run. I don't know if
- 1:07Speaker 4: these things ever really work out. When you kind of
- 1:10Speaker 4: change the play call it in the middle of the season.
- 1:12Speaker 4: You're doing something where you're basically kind of playing the
- 1:15Speaker 4: game with somebody else's team on Madden. So you have
- 1:18Speaker 4: a playbook that's not your playbook. You're trying to shift
- 1:20Speaker 4: the calls and do all these other things. I just
- 1:22Speaker 4: think is very difficult when you have a young quarterback
- 1:25Speaker 4: trying to figure it out with now a new voice
- 1:27Speaker 4: in his head. We'll see if this phase off the
- 1:30Speaker 4: defense is still going to determine how far the Stellers go.
- 1:33Speaker 4: They can only helpe the offense has a little spark
- 1:35Speaker 4: by making this move.
- 1:37Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I think about a few things.
- 1:40Speaker 1: Unfortunately, relating this back to college ball a little bit,
- 1:42Speaker 1: I've been been calling calling games thort team that had
- 1:45Speaker 1: a mid season offensive coordinator change this season, and look,
- 1:49Speaker 1: I think what was clear in a lot of this
- 1:52Speaker 1: is that you can't there's no wholesale changes here, right,
- 1:55Speaker 1: I mean, what you can try to do here is
- 1:58Speaker 1: create small little changes that foster bigger improvement over time. Now,
- 2:04Speaker 1: the problem for the Steelers Steelers is they don't have
- 2:06Speaker 1: a ton of time left here. But what's clear is
- 2:10Speaker 1: they are not nearly explosive enough to compete. Right now,
- 2:14Speaker 1: you're talking about a team that's thirty one explosive plays
- 2:18Speaker 1: this year. You know how many of the Dolphins have
- 2:20Speaker 1: eighty one. Now, we know they're not nearly what the
- 2:23Speaker 1: Dolphins are, but that fifty play difference, that's way too
- 2:27Speaker 1: wide of a margin. Right. You know, who's the only
- 2:29Speaker 1: team that's better than the Steelers? And explosive are the
- 2:32Speaker 1: only team? Well, actually the Steelers are the worst, but
- 2:35Speaker 1: the Panthers are thirty two. And we talked about the
- 2:37Speaker 1: personnel there with the Panthers, but can we all agree
- 2:39Speaker 1: dj that the Steelers have much better personnel or else
- 2:43Speaker 1: argat wise than the Panthers. So when you look at
- 2:45Speaker 1: that comparison, there's got to be a way to foster
- 2:48Speaker 1: bigger change with explosive plays and pushing the.
- 2:50Speaker 5: Ball down the field. That's kind of where I where
- 2:52Speaker 5: I sit on now.
- 2:53Speaker 3: Yeah, And this is it's interesting because a lot of
- 2:55Speaker 3: people say this will never happen and why do you
- 2:58Speaker 3: say this will never happen. It's because Pittsburgh Steelers don't
- 3:01Speaker 3: do this.
- 3:01Speaker 1: You know.
- 3:01Speaker 3: You think about the number of general managers and head
- 3:03Speaker 3: coaches they've had over the years. They don't make changes.
- 3:06Speaker 3: This is the first time they've made an end season
- 3:08Speaker 3: coaching change since nineteen forty one, so it's been a minute.
- 3:12Speaker 3: It's been a minute since they've done it. So they
- 3:14Speaker 3: actually did it shows you the desperation that they have.
- 3:17Speaker 3: I went back and pulled up my Kenny Pickett report, guys,
- 3:20Speaker 3: so let's let's go back and look at what he
- 3:22Speaker 3: was coming out, and let's see how the offense should
- 3:25Speaker 3: fit around him. Obviously, you know, were the two gloves
- 3:28Speaker 3: A wide base thrower. He's really quick getting the number
- 3:31Speaker 3: three in his progression, so that's, you know, one of
- 3:33Speaker 3: the things that was a real strength of his one
- 3:34Speaker 3: to two to three, very fast. He was accurate, He
- 3:37Speaker 3: could extend plays and create some plays with his athleticism,
- 3:40Speaker 3: had good pocket awareness. His hands did separate in traffic
- 3:44Speaker 3: a little bit, so you're worried a little bit about
- 3:45Speaker 3: the fumbles there. Does not have a big arm, a
- 3:48Speaker 3: drive arm, a you know, big velocity arm. So maybe
- 3:51Speaker 3: some of those explosives you're thinking, you know that's not
- 3:53Speaker 3: going to be coming on drive throws, hole shots, deep
- 3:56Speaker 3: incuts power in the football. But what he can do, Buck,
- 3:59Speaker 3: is he can layer the ball over the top with touch.
- 4:02Speaker 3: That's what he does really well. So to me, it's
- 4:05Speaker 3: can you get him in a situation where we get
- 4:06Speaker 3: a guys out in the route, let him work two
- 4:08Speaker 3: progressions quickly, get the ball out of his hands, and
- 4:10Speaker 3: then maybe take some shots over the top, those kind
- 4:13Speaker 3: of bucket throws as opposed to those drive throws.
- 4:15Speaker 2: That's not really what he did.
- 4:16Speaker 3: And I would add also going back and watching the
- 4:18Speaker 3: tape this morning, Buck, the screen game, they're awful at it.
- 4:22Speaker 3: They try it. I mean, the their offensive line is
- 4:25Speaker 3: not great, so they try and use a bunch of screens.
- 4:27Speaker 3: They're not good at it. So I would tee it
- 4:29Speaker 3: up to you on two things. What do you think
- 4:31Speaker 3: the offense should look like? And as somebody who's been
- 4:34Speaker 3: around some of the best screen coordinators in the league
- 4:36Speaker 3: and played against some of the screen coordinators, what's the
- 4:39Speaker 3: key to being a good screen team?
- 4:41Speaker 2: Well, the offense.
- 4:43Speaker 4: When I think about the Pittsburgh ceilis and I think
- 4:45Speaker 4: it has to be an offense that confidence the defense.
- 4:46Speaker 2: I always say it needs to be run heavy.
- 4:49Speaker 4: I think you have to make sure that both backs
- 4:50Speaker 4: are involved because both guys bring a little bit of something.
- 4:53Speaker 4: Naja Harris is maybe the lead back doing the ancestor
- 4:56Speaker 4: warrant being able to get up and make the big plays.
- 4:58Speaker 4: But then it has to go through to some of
- 5:00Speaker 4: those wide receivers Deontay Johnson and George pick As. They
- 5:03Speaker 4: have two quality playmakers on the outside. They need to
- 5:06Speaker 4: get their hands on the ball. In essence, when you
- 5:09Speaker 4: think about the screen game, what I would say is
- 5:11Speaker 4: there ask to be something that is emphasized and that
- 5:13Speaker 4: is really a focal point. This is a big maler
- 5:17Speaker 4: Masher type offensive line.
- 5:19Speaker 2: That's not really going to be their thing.
- 5:22Speaker 4: They are better when they can just come off the
- 5:23Speaker 4: ball and knock people around and see if they can
- 5:25Speaker 4: just kind of play big boy football.
- 5:27Speaker 2: They can mix in some screens, but I think when.
- 5:29Speaker 4: You got big Broderick Jones and those guys, I'm not
- 5:32Speaker 4: necessarily trying to get them on the permative move.
- 5:33Speaker 2: I'm trying to get them to move the furniture and
- 5:35Speaker 2: rearrange the furniture in the living room.
- 5:38Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see what these changes look like. Again, it's
- 5:41Speaker 3: unheard of for the Steelers to make end season coaching moves.
- 5:43Speaker 3: That shows you the desperation that they have. Go ahead, right,
- 5:46Speaker 3: you got something else?
- 5:46Speaker 1: Yeah, I was just gonna say, like, I got fooled.
- 5:49Speaker 1: I got fooled in the preseason by the Steelers. Watching
- 5:51Speaker 1: that game against the Falcons. Those couple of drives they had,
- 5:55Speaker 1: it was incredible. I mean, the rhythm that they were moving.
- 5:57Speaker 1: They were using Naji Harris, they were using Jalen Warren,
- 6:00Speaker 1: and you had Darnold Washington out there blocking like a
- 6:02Speaker 1: sixth offensive lineman, and then Kenny was, as you said,
- 6:05Speaker 1: DJ dropping them in the bucket to George Pickens.
- 6:08Speaker 5: And then I'm like, holy smokes, I gotta get all
- 6:10Speaker 5: these guys in my fantasy team. And it's been a disaster.
- 6:13Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is that part of it, like
- 6:17Speaker 1: those things we're talking about here, they have shown that
- 6:21Speaker 1: they can work for this offense, and so finding a
- 6:24Speaker 1: way to recreate some of that rhythm and some of
- 6:26Speaker 1: that flow and some of that scripting of those types
- 6:29Speaker 1: of plays within that scheme feels like you can find
- 6:32Speaker 1: a path forward to some offensive success here, much more
- 6:35Speaker 1: than they've had.
- 6:36Speaker 3: Yeah, well, they also need to evaluate Kenny Pickett. You know,
- 6:38Speaker 3: this is year two for him, so you want to
- 6:40Speaker 3: be able to get a fair evaluation. The way this
- 6:42Speaker 3: thing has looked around him, even though we think they
- 6:45Speaker 3: have some players on the perimeter, hasn't worked to get
- 6:48Speaker 3: a good evaluation of him. Maybe he isn't the guy,
- 6:50Speaker 3: and maybe that's something they're going to try and determine
- 6:52Speaker 3: here on the back half of the season and change
- 6:55Speaker 3: things up a little bit because they got to be
- 6:56Speaker 3: able to evaluate him to make a decision going into
- 6:59Speaker 3: the offseason. All right, let's get things going here. It's
- 7:02Speaker 3: time for the Monday Night recap. We got a heck
- 7:04Speaker 3: of a game to get to, ratt I'll open the floor.
- 7:07Speaker 3: Just the biggest takeaway from the Eagles win last night.
- 7:10Speaker 1: Well, the Chiefs had a much better chance, should have
- 7:13Speaker 1: had a much better chance to come down and win
- 7:15Speaker 1: that game. Drops man drops with the chief I mean, like, look,
- 7:19Speaker 1: you come is a tight game. These are two really
- 7:21Speaker 1: good teams. It went back and forth. Obviously, the Chiefs
- 7:23Speaker 1: built the lead, Eagles made the comeback, and I think
- 7:26Speaker 1: a lot of that is to be expected with these teams,
- 7:28Speaker 1: But you can't have those drops in critical situations.
- 7:31Speaker 5: I mean, justin Watson as what three of them.
- 7:34Speaker 1: Including that fourth and twenty five that they probably should
- 7:37Speaker 1: have converted. Get to the Eagles part of that here
- 7:39Speaker 1: in a second, But those drops were bad, and then
- 7:41Speaker 1: I had I had visions and obviously the MBS one
- 7:44Speaker 1: was huge. That's that's a surefire touchdown. Keep put it
- 7:47Speaker 1: any better than put it out there, any better than
- 7:48Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes did. But I don't about you, guys, and Bucky,
- 7:51Speaker 1: I'll come to you on this too, Like I had
- 7:52Speaker 1: visions of Shaq Barrett harass Chat Barrett and JPP are
- 7:56Speaker 1: rassing Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl in that in
- 7:59Speaker 1: those last couple of drives. And I know, I think
- 8:01Speaker 1: it was a rough night for Donovan Smith, but I
- 8:03Speaker 1: know the Eagles can get after you as good as
- 8:05Speaker 1: any as any you know, pass rush in the league.
- 8:07Speaker 1: But they got to be better when the game's on
- 8:09Speaker 1: the line right there, both the protecting Mahomes and then
- 8:12Speaker 1: the receivers coming through and making plays for Mahomes. Because
- 8:16Speaker 1: NBS wears it, Kelsey wears it a little bit with drops,
- 8:18Speaker 1: and then certainly Watson does two well.
- 8:21Speaker 4: I mean, this is the unit that leads the league
- 8:23Speaker 4: in drops, then number one in drops in the National
- 8:25Speaker 4: Football League, and so this is not a surprise. This
- 8:27Speaker 4: is kind of a theme that we've talked about since
- 8:30Speaker 4: week one. They don't have any premier playmakers on the
- 8:33Speaker 4: outside of Travis kelce and Travis Kelcey is older, so
- 8:36Speaker 4: you can fit on him to do certain things, but
- 8:38Speaker 4: he's not going to be the phenomenal guy that gives
- 8:42Speaker 4: you the explosive plays like he used to in his
- 8:45Speaker 4: younger days. So if I am and to read, I'm
- 8:48Speaker 4: looking at this office and I'm trying to figure out, like,
- 8:50Speaker 4: how are we going to get this done? DJ We
- 8:53Speaker 4: talked about the screen game in the previous block, talking
- 8:55Speaker 4: about the Pittsburgh still but I think they have to
- 8:58Speaker 4: go to maybe a little dinking, don't more, the running
- 9:01Speaker 4: backs doing some things trying to play.
- 9:03Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know, maybe singles and doubles, not.
- 9:06Speaker 4: Home runs, because right now, I don't believe that they
- 9:09Speaker 4: can depend on the people on the outside. I think
- 9:11Speaker 4: the passing game now has to work inside out. Travis
- 9:14Speaker 4: kelce the running backs than to wide receivers have to
- 9:17Speaker 4: be maybe the third and fourth option in some of
- 9:19Speaker 4: these progressions because they're not getting it done right now.
- 9:23Speaker 3: Well, I'm conflicted because I looked at it and say, okay,
- 9:27Speaker 3: why are they not being more aggressive in the passing game?
- 9:29Speaker 3: And part of me is saying, well, obviously you've seen
- 9:31Speaker 3: these drops now right the league and drops you guys mentioned.
- 9:34Speaker 3: The other part of me is the point the ret
- 9:36Speaker 3: brought up. I don't think they're very good on the
- 9:37Speaker 3: outside of the offensive offensive line. I mean, first of all,
- 9:40Speaker 3: golly man, you talk about holding Holy moly, not even
- 9:44Speaker 3: on the outside. On the inside, Creed Humphrey just hugging
- 9:47Speaker 3: Jalen Carter out there. That was interesting build back and
- 9:50Speaker 3: watching the tape of that one. But I don't think
- 9:53Speaker 3: that they have trust in their receivers. I don't know
- 9:55Speaker 3: they have trust in their offensive line to be chucking
- 9:56Speaker 3: it all over the place, and they're kind of playing
- 9:59Speaker 3: it in some ways. This is the greatness of Andy Reid.
- 10:02Speaker 3: You know, we think about the high flying offense. He
- 10:04Speaker 3: knows he's got a really good defense this year, and
- 10:07Speaker 3: he's not being arrogant enough to say, well, we're just
- 10:09Speaker 3: going to play like we've always played offensively he's saying, well,
- 10:12Speaker 3: for us to win games right now with what we're
- 10:14Speaker 3: missing on the outside of maybe not so great at
- 10:17Speaker 3: the tackle position, offensively, we got to run the ball.
- 10:19Speaker 3: We're going to try and play close games. And Mahomes
- 10:22Speaker 3: is so unbelievable. He's going to make those two or
- 10:24Speaker 3: three plays, which, as you guys mentioned, he did. He
- 10:26Speaker 3: made the plays at the end, they just didn't catch
- 10:28Speaker 3: the ball. So you know, I think that's their formula.
- 10:31Speaker 3: They're still going to be They're still going to be
- 10:32Speaker 3: there at the end. But I will say, you know, Buck,
- 10:35Speaker 3: I'll get over to you on this one. Does it
- 10:37Speaker 3: matter home field advantage whether Miami plays in Kansas City
- 10:42Speaker 3: or whether that game is in Miami.
- 10:45Speaker 2: I think it matters a little bit.
- 10:46Speaker 4: I think it matters for the Dolphins just because having
- 10:49Speaker 4: played last year in Kansas City, whin the Jaguars Candon
- 10:51Speaker 4: Town in the Division A round. The weather is cold,
- 10:55Speaker 4: it's kind of mucky, the grass is thick, and it
- 10:58Speaker 4: makes it more of a mutter track than one for
- 11:00Speaker 4: your thorough bris to.
- 11:01Speaker 2: Get out there.
- 11:02Speaker 4: If you're the Miamy Dolphins, you absolutely want the game
- 11:04Speaker 4: at home now. Being warm and Sonny and all that
- 11:08Speaker 4: it also allows Patrick Mahomes to be at his best.
- 11:10Speaker 4: But you certainly don't want to have to go to
- 11:12Speaker 4: Kansas City and have them play because I think Kansas
- 11:14Speaker 4: City has always been able to play at home. They
- 11:17Speaker 4: dominated home in the postseason. So yeah, get it up
- 11:20Speaker 4: out of airhead, make them go on the road and
- 11:22Speaker 4: see if you can have better luck against Pat Mahomes
- 11:24Speaker 4: and company doing it in those circumstances.
- 11:27Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 11:27Speaker 3: No, I'm with you, and I would flip it over
- 11:30Speaker 3: to the Eagles side of things, Rhett. When you look
- 11:32Speaker 3: at the Eagles defensively in the first half, they're getting
- 11:35Speaker 3: gashed a little bit in the run game. They made
- 11:36Speaker 3: their adjustments. Give them a lot of credit for that.
- 11:38Speaker 3: They shut that down in the second half, and even
- 11:40Speaker 3: though man, they should have been popped for a big
- 11:42Speaker 3: play that might have cost him the game down the field,
- 11:44Speaker 3: I thought they had the right balance of being physical
- 11:47Speaker 3: being aggressive, but then also, you know, hey, let's keep
- 11:49Speaker 3: the ball in front of us and let's rally and tackle.
- 11:51Speaker 3: I thought it was a good game plan, especially in
- 11:53Speaker 3: the second half defensively and then offensively. Jalen Hurts does what,
- 11:57Speaker 3: you know, what really good quarterbacks do in terms of
- 11:59Speaker 3: when the money any time is there, when you need
- 12:01Speaker 3: to make that throw. He makes that throw and then
- 12:03Speaker 3: you know, using his legs a little bit more than
- 12:05Speaker 3: maybe we anticipated with his knee situation.
- 12:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he and DeAndre Swift both with twelve
- 12:10Speaker 1: carries in this game. I think I'm mistaken. So I
- 12:14Speaker 1: appreciated the run game mixed in there a little bit.
- 12:16Speaker 1: I still think they could do more of that, right
- 12:18Speaker 1: and to help out, you know, help set more things up.
- 12:21Speaker 1: That throwd to Devonte Smith that we just were looking
- 12:24Speaker 1: at right there, that was I mean, look, when you
- 12:26Speaker 1: got to have it, man, that's that's that's a big
- 12:28Speaker 1: time to be able to count on your quarterback and
- 12:30Speaker 1: your wideouts to complete that type of play. The one
- 12:33Speaker 1: thing that I would say on the Eagles defense, and
- 12:36Speaker 1: it's great to be able to go back and look
- 12:37Speaker 1: at this stuff in a win. Bucky edit, did you
- 12:40Speaker 1: watch those last couple of plays the defense? I mean
- 12:43Speaker 1: they they said they had to be a miscommunication on
- 12:46Speaker 1: the mvs free runner right down the middle.
- 12:48Speaker 5: I mean he had had a guy.
- 12:49Speaker 1: Trail, yet two both safeties come down. They're triple teaming
- 12:52Speaker 1: Travis Kelce ten yards down the field. While MBS is
- 12:55Speaker 1: just running, you know, like his hair's on fire, down
- 12:58Speaker 1: the middle of the field. And then they covered one
- 13:00Speaker 1: on that fourth and twenty five, like that should have
- 13:02Speaker 1: been a completion to Watson. That eight guys and coverags
- 13:05Speaker 1: didn't cover anybody.
- 13:07Speaker 2: It absolutely can come back to bite them.
- 13:08Speaker 4: And I think that's the challenging trick of dealing with
- 13:10Speaker 4: Pat Mahomes and that crew.
- 13:12Speaker 2: Pat Mahomes is so good.
- 13:13Speaker 4: He can buy time, he can fit balls in the
- 13:15Speaker 4: tight windows, and you just can't cover the field. The
- 13:18Speaker 4: one on NBS, you can't allow it to get over
- 13:20Speaker 4: the top. You got to make sure you keep it
- 13:22Speaker 4: in front of understand all the attentions on Travis Kelsey,
- 13:24Speaker 4: but everyone has to have someone aware it is. Somebody
- 13:27Speaker 4: has to be deeper than the deepest. And then the
- 13:29Speaker 4: one for Watson, that is the one where he just
- 13:31Speaker 4: kind of tried it down to the sticks and say, oh,
- 13:33Speaker 4: I guess I'll turn them around here, I'm open and.
- 13:35Speaker 5: Give it a dart.
- 13:36Speaker 4: It was right on and hit it right the face
- 13:37Speaker 4: mast I mean, it was a great throw by Pat Mahomes.
- 13:40Speaker 4: The Philadelphia Eagles have to be more aware. They got
- 13:42Speaker 4: to be more countersate of where the sticks are. You
- 13:44Speaker 4: can't allow it to be that easy for Pat Mahomes.
- 13:47Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 13:47Speaker 3: No, it was a great game though, guys. I mean,
- 13:49Speaker 3: twenty one to seventeen. Everything you wanted to see you
- 13:51Speaker 3: got a little bit of weather. It was a heavyweight
- 13:54Speaker 3: matchup and one that I'm I'm not so sure that's
- 13:56Speaker 3: the last time we see these two teams. We could
- 13:59Speaker 3: see this one again, and rematch of the Super Bowl
- 14:01Speaker 3: would not surprise me at all, because again we can
- 14:03Speaker 3: talk about all the warts with Kansas City, all their issues.
- 14:05Speaker 3: They're right there against the team with the best record
- 14:07Speaker 3: in the NFL. The Chiefs are not going anywhere, so
- 14:10Speaker 3: we might see this matchup one more time. All right, guys,
- 14:13Speaker 3: let's get into the AFC playoff picture. As you look
- 14:15Speaker 3: at it right here, you got the division leaders with
- 14:17Speaker 3: the Ravens, the Chiefs, the Jags, and the Dolphins. Right
- 14:20Speaker 3: there in the wildcard spots, you've got two from the
- 14:22Speaker 3: AFC North with the Browns and the Steelers, and then
- 14:24Speaker 3: the Houston Texans crashing the party as well. But I
- 14:27Speaker 3: want to talk to those four teams in the hunt.
- 14:29Speaker 3: You've got the Bills, the Colts, the Broncos and the Bengals.
- 14:32Speaker 3: And I think this answer is different from what we
- 14:34Speaker 3: would have answered last week. It has changed a lot
- 14:36Speaker 3: due to injuries and what we saw from a couple
- 14:39Speaker 3: of these teams. But Buck, I'll get over to you.
- 14:41Speaker 3: With those four teams in the hunt, which one are
- 14:44Speaker 3: you most confident in that's going to make their way
- 14:46Speaker 3: to the tournament?
- 14:47Speaker 4: Most confident It goes down to quarterback plays. So I'm
- 14:50Speaker 4: gonna go with Josh Allen. I'm gonna go with Josh
- 14:52Speaker 4: Allen being able to figure it out because he is
- 14:53Speaker 4: the one guy that we know can get hot and
- 14:55Speaker 4: he can put the team on his back. We've seen
- 14:58Speaker 4: it time and time again. It may not be pretty
- 15:00Speaker 4: for the Buffalo Bills, but if Josh Allen has to
- 15:03Speaker 4: win a one game scenario to get in, you can
- 15:06Speaker 4: put your money on him. And so with this offense
- 15:08Speaker 4: within maybe discovering a little bit of a running game.
- 15:11Speaker 4: You saw Joe Brady lean into that a little bit,
- 15:13Speaker 4: with James Koch having success, Josh Allen being able to
- 15:16Speaker 4: get some of those quick rhythm throws, I am willing
- 15:18Speaker 4: to bank on the Buffalo Bills kind of back dooring
- 15:20Speaker 4: their way into the tournament over the rest of the field.
- 15:24Speaker 1: Yeah, if they continue to play the way they did
- 15:25Speaker 1: last week on offense against a good Jets defense, and
- 15:28Speaker 1: that trend line stays pointed upwards, then I would absolutely
- 15:32Speaker 1: agree with you there. But I mean, I don't think
- 15:34Speaker 1: we can argue the fact that the team that's playing
- 15:37Speaker 1: the best most consistently right now is the Denver Broncos,
- 15:41Speaker 1: and they seem to have found the formula with Sean
- 15:43Speaker 1: Payton and Russell Wilson, you know, maybe not doing things
- 15:46Speaker 1: the way that both of them you know, have done them,
- 15:49Speaker 1: you know, really successfully in the past, but finding that
- 15:51Speaker 1: path forward together. The connection between Russell Wilson and Courtland Sutton,
- 15:55Speaker 1: I think is huge right now. Obviously saw that with
- 15:57Speaker 1: that late game score, you know, this past week another
- 16:00Speaker 1: win for the Broncos. Their defense is obviously playing a
- 16:03Speaker 1: watch a lot better, and the patients we talked about
- 16:07Speaker 1: on the pot on Monday, I think is really big
- 16:10Speaker 1: that they have exercised with the construction of that team,
- 16:12Speaker 1: with the coaching staff on that team, and it seems
- 16:15Speaker 1: to be paying some dividends.
- 16:16Speaker 5: They're playing some good ball right now.
- 16:17Speaker 1: I know, the margin for error still feels pretty small there,
- 16:20Speaker 1: as it does with a lot of these teams that
- 16:21Speaker 1: are even in that wildcard picture, Like the Browns feel
- 16:25Speaker 1: like their margin for error is really small with the
- 16:27Speaker 1: quarterback situation, and there's a few others in there as well.
- 16:31Speaker 1: But I feel like the Broncos are going to be
- 16:34Speaker 1: in this thing if they keep this up here down
- 16:36Speaker 1: the stretch.
- 16:37Speaker 3: Yeah, I pull up their schedule rhtt and these next
- 16:39Speaker 3: two weeks are big. They play Cleveland, they're at home,
- 16:42Speaker 3: and then they're at Houston. So those two games Cleveland Houston,
- 16:45Speaker 3: because after that they've got a couple games with the Chargers,
- 16:47Speaker 3: they've got a Raiders, they've got a Patriots mixed in there,
- 16:51Speaker 3: and then you have Detroit, which will be a tough one.
- 16:52Speaker 3: But there's there's a way. If we're saying nine wins
- 16:55Speaker 3: is what it's going to take, there's definitely a path
- 16:57Speaker 3: you can say with the Denver Broncos, provided they handle
- 17:00Speaker 3: their business in these next two games that they can
- 17:02Speaker 3: they can get to those nine maybe ten wins. What
- 17:05Speaker 3: a comeback that would be if they were to make
- 17:06Speaker 3: their way into the postseason team. I feel like we
- 17:09Speaker 3: don't ever talk about on here. We haven't talked about
- 17:11Speaker 3: them much at all. And that's the Indianapolis Colts. Buck
- 17:15Speaker 3: Tommy Shane Steike and I think is a really really
- 17:17Speaker 3: good football coach, and they're kind of just hanging around.
- 17:20Speaker 3: They haven't they haven't been talked about. They're just kind
- 17:22Speaker 3: of hanging around. But I feel like that's still a
- 17:25Speaker 3: team that could they can make their way into the tournament.
- 17:28Speaker 2: They absolutely can make their way.
- 17:29Speaker 4: Shane Sticking has done a great job, maybe one of
- 17:30Speaker 4: the best coaching jobs that we've seen, because this is
- 17:33Speaker 4: a team they lost their starting quarterback early and Anthony Rigson.
- 17:35Speaker 4: They've been able to kind of work around some of
- 17:38Speaker 4: the limitations that they have on offense when Gardner Minchew's there,
- 17:41Speaker 4: defense League Gus Bradley and that defenses take advantage of
- 17:45Speaker 4: opportunities that make it in a bunch of young guys
- 17:48Speaker 4: that's still good.
- 17:48Speaker 2: Upfront and they're making it happen.
- 17:50Speaker 4: But yeah, a very competitive Indianapolis Coles team has made
- 17:54Speaker 4: life difficult of their opponents and they also are primed
- 17:57Speaker 4: and ready to get back into the tournament because they're
- 18:00Speaker 4: running game with Jonathan Taylor being able to kind of
- 18:03Speaker 4: carry the load as the workhorse.
- 18:05Speaker 3: Yeah, they can give people problems. You know, I'll wrap
- 18:07Speaker 3: it up with this one on the Colts. Guys, Tampa Bay,
- 18:10Speaker 3: this is their schedule coming up. Tampa, Tennessee, who's you know,
- 18:14Speaker 3: made a quarterback change this year, Cincinnati, who's made a
- 18:17Speaker 3: quarterback change this year, Pittsburgh who's made a coordinator change
- 18:20Speaker 3: this year, Atlanta who's made a change and then made
- 18:22Speaker 3: another change at the quarterback position. Vegas who's made a
- 18:26Speaker 3: change at the quarterback position. And then they finish up
- 18:28Speaker 3: with Houston. That is a very friendly schedule for the
- 18:32Speaker 3: Indianapolis Colts to be the team that nobody talks about.
- 18:35Speaker 3: And we wake up going into week seventeen and go,
- 18:37Speaker 3: how in the world the Colts here? Yeah, they have
- 18:39Speaker 3: it all in front of them. It's lined up quite
- 18:41Speaker 3: well for the Indianapolis Colts. All right, let's switch over
- 18:43Speaker 3: to the NFC. That is the AFC teams we're buying
- 18:46Speaker 3: there in the hunt. You look at the NFC the
- 18:49Speaker 3: division leaders, man, You've got the Philadelphia Eagles, Lions, Niners,
- 18:53Speaker 3: and Saints. And then the wild card you've got the
- 18:56Speaker 3: Cowboys who've been playing well, the Seahawks, and the Minnesota Vikings.
- 19:00Speaker 3: Josh Dobbs but the four in the hunt, we're going
- 19:01Speaker 3: to focus on Green Bay the Rams. If you look
- 19:04Speaker 3: at the Atlanta Falcons and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, it
- 19:07Speaker 3: feels weird after we do the AFC and then you
- 19:08Speaker 3: come over to this one and you got everybody at
- 19:10Speaker 3: four and six in that group. But Buck, of those four,
- 19:13Speaker 3: which one are you buying? Is potentially closing that two
- 19:16Speaker 3: game gap and getting into the postseason?
- 19:19Speaker 2: Gopack go.
- 19:20Speaker 4: The Green Bay Packers being able to kind of get
- 19:22Speaker 4: into the tournament. We talked about the defense, Yes, they
- 19:25Speaker 4: did talented enough to be able to do it. Can
- 19:27Speaker 4: Joe Barry dialed up and be a little more aggressive
- 19:30Speaker 4: to give them some turnovers, to give this offense some
- 19:32Speaker 4: short fields as some prime scoring chances. Yeah, because dead
- 19:37Speaker 4: defense plays and they play light out, they certainly can
- 19:40Speaker 4: kind of get into the tournament. Jordan Love has shown
- 19:42Speaker 4: that he can make some plays. He's beginning to get
- 19:44Speaker 4: his confidence, and their young playmakers on the outside are
- 19:48Speaker 4: also finding that chemistry.
- 19:50Speaker 2: And connection with him.
- 19:51Speaker 4: If a defense plays well enough, I would expec to
- 19:53Speaker 4: see the Green Bay Packers find their way into the tournament.
- 19:56Speaker 1: Hold on a second, Buck, I thought we just said
- 19:58Speaker 1: in the AFC was all about quarterback play, and if
- 20:01Speaker 1: that's the case, then it's got to be the Los
- 20:02Speaker 1: Angeles Rams, right, I mean, Matthew Stafford is the guy
- 20:07Speaker 1: in this group, right, and and the Rams as long
- 20:09Speaker 1: as you can get Cooper Cup, you know, if this
- 20:11Speaker 1: ankle sprain isn't a big deal, he find a way
- 20:13Speaker 1: to get him back healthy again. And he had poo
- 20:15Speaker 1: pooka Akua of course, and you get some splash plays,
- 20:18Speaker 1: you know, from to two at well in there, and
- 20:20Speaker 1: they keep finding a way to piece together some run game.
- 20:23Speaker 1: And I know that the Kirraen Williams injury certainly hard
- 20:26Speaker 1: him because he was on a roll there. But I
- 20:28Speaker 1: just feel like, if it's quarterback and if it's coach
- 20:30Speaker 1: and it's play caller man out of that group, I'm
- 20:33Speaker 1: really I'm trusting the La Rams to find a way
- 20:36Speaker 1: to at least stay alive here and see what happens
- 20:39Speaker 1: with Minnesota if they start trailing off. And you know,
- 20:42Speaker 1: I know, Pete Carroll said that Gino Smith looks like
- 20:44Speaker 1: he might be good to go, you know, for this week,
- 20:47Speaker 1: you know, on a short week for the Seahawks, after
- 20:50Speaker 1: you know, he was banged up a little bit. But man,
- 20:51Speaker 1: if that starts creeping up here a little bit, that
- 20:53Speaker 1: affects his play. You know, you could see and then
- 20:56Speaker 1: you know, who knows what happens with Dobbs in Minnesota
- 20:58Speaker 1: down the stretch. So that's sick seven Spot feels vulnerable.
- 21:02Speaker 1: And then you know, look, I think Atlanta, Atlanta's either
- 21:05Speaker 1: division champ or bust. Right, it's either it's none of
- 21:07Speaker 1: the Saints to win the South, and I don't think
- 21:09Speaker 1: either one of those teams ends up in the wild Card.
- 21:12Speaker 1: But look, if we were talking defense alone, I'd say
- 21:15Speaker 1: the Bucks because the Bucks have a lot of pieces
- 21:17Speaker 1: on defense that are that are fun.
- 21:18Speaker 3: But they want a game in forever, I know. And
- 21:21Speaker 3: if it comes down to quarterbacks soon on right, what am.
- 21:25Speaker 4: Look, I gets you. I mean, Matthew Stafford certainly can
- 21:27Speaker 4: do it. I just worry about the health of the Rams.
- 21:29Speaker 4: I worry about Cooper Cup has been banged up for
- 21:30Speaker 4: most of the season, puking the tour. Has done a
- 21:32Speaker 4: great job stepping in, but he's gonna need a he's
- 21:34Speaker 4: gonna need a playmate to go with him. And so
- 21:37Speaker 4: if Matthew Stafford is upright for the rest of say yeah,
- 21:39Speaker 4: I can see the Rams sliding in there, but man
- 21:42Speaker 4: got knock on wood a lot because they kind of
- 21:44Speaker 4: banged up. Those guys are really hanging by three when
- 21:46Speaker 4: it comes to the injury situation.
- 21:48Speaker 3: Well, the Atlanta Falcons have lost four of their last five.
- 21:51Speaker 3: And talking about the Tampa Bay Bucks, Okay, they won
- 21:53Speaker 3: a couple of weeks ago against Tennessee, but that is one, two.
- 21:56Speaker 1: Three four.
- 21:57Speaker 3: They lost three and one to start, So I mean,
- 22:01Speaker 3: you've got Atlanta, You've got Atlanta, and Tampa have been reeling,
- 22:04Speaker 3: so they if they're gonna you know, look, New Orleans
- 22:07Speaker 3: is not running away from them. They're only one game
- 22:08Speaker 3: behind them, so I guess they could turn around and
- 22:10Speaker 3: get hot. But there's been not a lot to inspire
- 22:13Speaker 3: confidence in any of those teams in the NFC South.
- 22:16Speaker 3: So of course, you know what will happen. They'll host
- 22:17Speaker 3: a playoff game whoever wins it, and they'll knock off
- 22:19Speaker 3: one of these teams. That's a really good record, I
- 22:21Speaker 3: feel if you see that all the time. All right,
- 22:23Speaker 3: let's say quick break, we come back. It's a rookie
- 22:25Speaker 3: draft time. Buck, Come on, man, step your game up.
- 22:29Speaker 3: Let's go. Let's have a good rookie draft this week.
- 22:31Speaker 3: Let's get back into the hunt. We're going to do
- 22:32Speaker 3: that right after this. All right, it's time for our
- 22:39Speaker 3: rookie draft. And before we get to this week's draft,
- 22:42Speaker 3: we can look back to last week. Solid week. I
- 22:45Speaker 3: needed a good, nice week here, and I got it
- 22:46Speaker 3: with with Gibbs and Dell. Give me some points. Well,
- 22:49Speaker 3: Levis has got me one point as a second quarterback.
- 22:51Speaker 3: Rhett got the quarterback points with Stroud and picked up
- 22:54Speaker 3: a couple singles with Sharbonna and Kincaid.
- 22:56Speaker 5: Buck.
- 22:57Speaker 3: You got shut out, man. This is let's start right there.
- 23:00Speaker 3: This is this is a big week for you.
- 23:02Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 23:02Speaker 3: Do you guys have a team meeting this week to
- 23:04Speaker 3: try and get you back on track here in the
- 23:06Speaker 3: rookie draft. What are we doing?
- 23:08Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 23:09Speaker 4: Everything championship team has some kind of adversity before they
- 23:13Speaker 4: kind of get on track.
- 23:14Speaker 2: So this was just I had birse moment. But now
- 23:16Speaker 2: we're back on track.
- 23:17Speaker 4: We had a little team meeting players only, we got
- 23:19Speaker 4: it all out of our system.
- 23:20Speaker 3: We're back on track this week, we guarantee it. Yeah,
- 23:23Speaker 3: that was much needed there. I want I want to
- 23:26Speaker 3: get your comments though on one of the guys who
- 23:28Speaker 3: got me some points last week, which was Tank Dell,
- 23:30Speaker 3: stolen from rhet I knew he was going to take him,
- 23:31Speaker 3: so I ended up getting tanked. Dell from Houston. He
- 23:33Speaker 3: has another big week, and I was going back through
- 23:35Speaker 3: my notes on him, draft notes, and Buck I said
- 23:39Speaker 3: Marquise Brown was the comparison. He's in the slotty sudden,
- 23:43Speaker 3: he can accelerate through the ball. He's got very confident hands,
- 23:46Speaker 3: which we've seen over the last couple of weeks. Don't
- 23:49Speaker 3: underestimate guys that can catch the football when you're evaluating
- 23:52Speaker 3: white House. He can climb the ladder, go up and
- 23:54Speaker 3: play above the rim. A lot of home runs, and
- 23:56Speaker 3: he's got polished now. He's one hundred and sixty five pounds,
- 23:59Speaker 3: a little over five eight. He only ran four forty nine,
- 24:02Speaker 3: but he trusts me and you can see it on
- 24:03Speaker 3: the NFL field. He plays a heck of a lot
- 24:05Speaker 3: faster than four fort nine. But my question to you, Buck,
- 24:09Speaker 3: We've talked about this a little bit, but do you
- 24:12Speaker 3: care anymore about size when it comes to white out
- 24:15Speaker 3: seeing these little guys make plays like this every week?
- 24:17Speaker 1: Oh?
- 24:18Speaker 4: I mean, look, man, I feel like we're going to
- 24:20Speaker 4: have to go back and talk about that, because a
- 24:23Speaker 4: guy like this dominating the way that he's dominating certainly
- 24:27Speaker 4: changes the narrative. And then you think some of the
- 24:29Speaker 4: other top receivers that we've seen, the slender guys have
- 24:32Speaker 4: kind of made their mark of late, and so as
- 24:35Speaker 4: much as we love thinking that we can get the
- 24:36Speaker 4: big corner to knock them around, you're seeing the savvy
- 24:39Speaker 4: play callers can create opportunities for those guys to get
- 24:42Speaker 4: free releases. And when you see Tank dial just on
- 24:45Speaker 4: their little montage, the stop start quickness, his ability to
- 24:48Speaker 4: create separation, his natural hands DJ I think now over everything,
- 24:53Speaker 4: it's all about the skills more so than the size.
- 24:56Speaker 2: Give me the skill pass catcher, and I'll deal.
- 24:59Speaker 4: With all the other stuff because the skills are winning
- 25:01Speaker 4: in a major fashion today.
- 25:03Speaker 1: Well, I mean, look, we just talked about at the
- 25:05Speaker 1: top of the show, like yeah, Watson in NBS got open,
- 25:08Speaker 1: but could they hang on to the football?
- 25:10Speaker 5: No?
- 25:11Speaker 1: And so look, what good does that ultimately do you?
- 25:14Speaker 1: So take Dell can do it all. And look, I
- 25:16Speaker 1: think something that Bucky mentioned is obviously really key here
- 25:20Speaker 1: because he's found a play caller that understands his skill
- 25:23Speaker 1: set and understands the skill set of his quarterback, and
- 25:25Speaker 1: an evaluation front office team there in Houston that kind
- 25:28Speaker 1: of knew what this bunch might be able to do together,
- 25:31Speaker 1: and they're doing. I mean, look, Tank and Nico Collins
- 25:34Speaker 1: are the only two wide receivers, only team with two
- 25:38Speaker 1: wide receivers in the top fifteen in.
- 25:41Speaker 5: An average step of target. They're up over fourteen.
- 25:44Speaker 1: Like they are pushing the ball down the field, and
- 25:47Speaker 1: they are feeding right into what these guys' strengths are,
- 25:50Speaker 1: especially with Tank, and so I just think that it's
- 25:54Speaker 1: also probably a reason why we've seen this resurgence in
- 25:57Speaker 1: the Texans run game here in these last two weeks too, Right,
- 26:00Speaker 1: Devin Singletary has been over one hundred in the last
- 26:01Speaker 1: two probably seeing you know, safeties aren't creeping up because
- 26:05Speaker 1: you can't with Tank, Dell, and so I think this
- 26:07Speaker 1: is going to continue to serve the Texans well, tanks,
- 26:10Speaker 1: Tanks terrific. And on your question DJ about size, I mean, look,
- 26:16Speaker 1: if you can get open, he catch the ball, who cares, right,
- 26:19Speaker 1: That's ultimately what it comes down to.
- 26:21Speaker 3: Yeah, No, to me, it's a tiebreaker thing. You know,
- 26:23Speaker 3: it's not you don't eliminate him. It's a tiebreaker thing.
- 26:25Speaker 3: Look as a quarterback, if they're close, I want the
- 26:27Speaker 3: bigger guy. I got more room for error. I've got
- 26:29Speaker 3: a big catch radius, so he can go make some
- 26:31Speaker 3: things happen after the catch physically that you wouldn't be
- 26:34Speaker 3: able to do with a smaller guy. But my thing
- 26:36Speaker 3: is we have to get past the Okay, he's a
- 26:38Speaker 3: much better receiver, but he's small. So I'm going to
- 26:41Speaker 3: take a lesser receiver who's big and put him over him.
- 26:44Speaker 3: I think that you got to rethink that when you're
- 26:46Speaker 3: stat Breggers could as we get to the draft. That's yeah,
- 26:49Speaker 3: it's a tiebreaker. Is where the size comes into play.
- 26:52Speaker 3: All right, let's get this week's draft going. I've got
- 26:54Speaker 3: the first pick today, followed by Bucky and then Rhett.
- 26:57Speaker 3: I'm not going to waste a lot of time with
- 26:58Speaker 3: the first pick. I feel like CJ. Stroud is clearly
- 27:02Speaker 3: the top rookie quarterback, so I think I've got to
- 27:04Speaker 3: go there with the first pick. See if i can't
- 27:06Speaker 3: get those three points Buck.
- 27:08Speaker 2: Hey man, look, I'm with you.
- 27:09Speaker 1: Man.
- 27:09Speaker 4: I'm gonna break one of my own personal rules when
- 27:11Speaker 4: it comes to fantasy, I'm ana pick against my own team,
- 27:14Speaker 4: so I'm gonna go with Tangdal come on down, even
- 27:16Speaker 4: though you're playing against my mighty Jacksonville Jaguars.
- 27:19Speaker 2: This weekend right now is personal in this fantasy. They
- 27:22Speaker 2: I gotta make sure that I get a nice in
- 27:24Speaker 2: the tournament. So Tang deal, I'm gonna take you early.
- 27:27Speaker 1: Dang, you guys are really coming after me. You're really
- 27:30Speaker 1: coming after my picks here, pretty.
- 27:31Speaker 3: Hard right to Texans.
- 27:32Speaker 5: That's what That's the way it is.
- 27:35Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, I just guys, this was kind of
- 27:38Speaker 1: a tough one for me here with the I get
- 27:39Speaker 1: my choice of running backs. Obviously, Jamiir Gibbs has been
- 27:42Speaker 1: playing so well lately for the Lions, but I still
- 27:45Speaker 1: feel like Bijon, you know, against the Saints in the
- 27:48Speaker 1: game at home.
- 27:50Speaker 5: Ask of it. Now, I'm going Lions, So I'm going
- 27:51Speaker 5: Jumior Gibbs.
- 27:52Speaker 1: So give me Gibbs with the first pick there and
- 27:56Speaker 1: then with my back to back picks for quarterbacks.
- 28:02Speaker 5: At this point, man, this is uh, this is a
- 28:06Speaker 5: tough one. It really is.
- 28:08Speaker 1: Uh. You know what, give me Will Levis. Give me
- 28:10Speaker 1: Will Levis taking on the Panthers. They're struggling. That's that's
- 28:13Speaker 1: where I'm going with this one.
- 28:15Speaker 4: All right, Okay, thanks Red, I've squirt a little mayo
- 28:18Speaker 4: in my coffee right over here. It makes you're a
- 28:21Speaker 4: little mayo in That makes you make me feel a
- 28:23Speaker 4: little better that you took Will Levis because you're going
- 28:25Speaker 4: dr Bejon Robinson since you don't no, I mean, like
- 28:29Speaker 4: he says, you don't want I'll take I'll take bees
- 28:31Speaker 4: On Robinson. I'll live with the running back that it
- 28:33Speaker 4: didn't he's not good enough. He was only the number
- 28:35Speaker 4: one pick for like six weeks and I draft. But
- 28:38Speaker 4: I'll take him.
- 28:39Speaker 2: You come on, they didn't want you, I'll take all right.
- 28:42Speaker 3: All right, Buck, you said you broke a rule and
- 28:45Speaker 3: you took a player the Jags are playing against this week?
- 28:48Speaker 2: Is it?
- 28:49Speaker 1: Is it?
- 28:49Speaker 2: Okay?
- 28:49Speaker 3: If I break the rule back to back, Uh, I'm
- 28:53Speaker 3: gonna go Zay Flowers and Keaton Mitchell. Uh Sunday night
- 28:56Speaker 3: or against the Foragers here.
- 29:00Speaker 2: I don't.
- 29:01Speaker 3: I mean, that's my those are my options. I mean,
- 29:03Speaker 3: I'm you know, look, I think Justin Herbert is going
- 29:05Speaker 3: to score some points and maybe you find your way
- 29:07Speaker 3: into a shootout. But the Chargers pass defense has not
- 29:10Speaker 3: been great. So Jay Flowers is to pick there and
- 29:12Speaker 3: then Keaton Mitchell maybe he pops one. So I'm gonna go.
- 29:15Speaker 3: I'm gonna double up on the Ravens there with my picks. Yeah, okay,
- 29:19Speaker 3: well look I like that.
- 29:21Speaker 2: I like that. That's nice.
- 29:22Speaker 4: I mean Battle of LA. You got the charges taking
- 29:25Speaker 4: on the thing. I'm gonna keep it in l A.
- 29:26Speaker 2: I make it.
- 29:26Speaker 4: LA said to you, Let's go DTR. Let's go with DTR.
- 29:29Speaker 4: The Browns starting quarterback had a game winning drive. Let's
- 29:32Speaker 4: see if he can build upon that and helped me
- 29:35Speaker 4: get into the winner circle. DTR, come on down. Your
- 29:37Speaker 4: team beat mighty Ulysses should be fairly good. More confidence,
- 29:41Speaker 4: more confidence.
- 29:42Speaker 1: Okay, So I got to go with the pass catcher here,
- 29:45Speaker 1: and I just I don't trust the way that Josh
- 29:49Speaker 1: Dobbs has been using Jordan Addison even though they're going
- 29:51Speaker 1: up against the Bears.
- 29:53Speaker 5: You guys obviously took Zay there Tank dell out. So
- 29:58Speaker 5: go back to the Puka. Well against the Cardinals, he's.
- 30:02Speaker 2: Off with Pooker. He give it to me. He doesn't
- 30:06Speaker 2: even remember Pool.
- 30:07Speaker 5: Give me Pooka a root flame.
- 30:10Speaker 1: He was with the old flame going back to my roots,
- 30:11Speaker 1: baby Pooka to close it out.
- 30:14Speaker 3: Oh yeah, wow, wow, I feel good about you. Guys
- 30:18Speaker 3: are going Buck, you know what, he's listening to the
- 30:20Speaker 3: song we Don't Even Talk in Emo. He's got the
- 30:23Speaker 3: Boys to Men going soundtrack about him and Pooka. That
- 30:28Speaker 3: is terribly all right. Well, we'll see how this thing.
- 30:31Speaker 3: We'll see how this thing shakes out. Bucky has got
- 30:34Speaker 3: some work to do there, but I like this draft
- 30:35Speaker 3: to day. I think Bucky's gonna be able to close
- 30:37Speaker 3: the close the space. So again, looking forward to recapping
- 30:40Speaker 3: that again next week. That's gonna do it for us.
