NFL Week 4 Preview: Can Commanders Keep Winning Despite Injuries? · Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast

• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Hello, everyone, Welcome to the Inside the Birds NFL weekly
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: preview show. I'm Jeff Mosher, and here we go into
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: week four. That's right. Think about this, After this weekend,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: we are through about through a quarter of the NFL season.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: We'll be through four weeks of a seventeen game season.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Not exactly a quarter, but close to it. And that
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: just shows you how much time flies in the NFL.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: It feels like Opening Day, we're Opening Week was just
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: a couple of days ago, and the next time you
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: hear me do this podcast on a sat Friday or Saturday,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: it will already be four weeks into the NFL season.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: And I still think it's a weird week. There's not
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of great matchups this week. A couple three
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: and oh teams. Obviously, the Eagles and Buccaneers are going
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: at it. Colt Rams good game for sure. But other
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: than that, you know, you've got some really lopsided matchups.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: The Giants, Chargers, obviously, Jackson Dart will make his debut.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: You got the three and oh Bills versus zero and
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: three Saints, So you got some really lopsided matchups. And
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: you got a bunch of teams right now living in
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: that middle class. They either have one. They're either one
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: and two or two and one, which is normal for
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: this time of the year. But I think we're gonna
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: do is start to figure out who some teams are
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: and who are just the teams that last week. Last
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: week was a bizarre week in the NFL. I mean,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: you had some teams suffer some inexplicable losses. I mean,
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: we'll get into it as my preview games, but who
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: who could have seen the Panthers blowing out the Falcons
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: thirty nothing. I know, the Bengals were in their first
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: game without Joe Burrow. Did you see them losing to
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Carson Wentz and the Vikings by thirty eight points? Did
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: you see the Packers going and losing in Cleveland to
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: the Browns? Just some absolutely bizarre games. The Cowboys losing
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: to the Bears. So if you're the type of person
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: who makes your picks each week based on what you
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: saw the week before, well this is gonna be a
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: tough week for you. I am more the person who
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: tries to say, you know, every once in a while,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: you just get a bad week and it comes at
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: a time you don't expect it. It happens. It's the
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: ebb and flow of the NFL season. The only team
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: that doesn't seem to be able to have those kind
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: of peaks and valleys is the Eagles right now, as
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: they've won nineteen of their last twenty. But as they
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: always say, when you have a streak like that, the
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: losses are just around the corner. The law of averages
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: catches up with everybody. But credit to Eagles. They find
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: ways to win games. So do the Buffalo Bills. And
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: away we go here year in Week four, I want
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: to start off talking about the Thursday night game between
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks and the Cardinals, and I'm really fascinated by
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: the NFC West in general. I think it's one of
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: those divisions where, yes, there is a clear best team
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: right now in the Rams. You know, the Rams really
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: are going to kick themselves for blowing that nineteen point
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: lead against the Eagles. They look very strong. They look
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: good defensively, despite the fact that they don't have a
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: great secondary. They look good offensively. I think the DeVante
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Adams addition replacing Cooper Cup has been great for their offense.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: They run the ball really well. They've got Blake Klorum
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: now taking some time or tak them some mileage off
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Kyum Williams gives them a little bit of juice. So
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: I think the Rams, even after blowing that game, will
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: be a good team and will probably win the NFC West.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: I think they're just the best overall team. But the Niners,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: you got to give them, give them credit. The Niners
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: have already overcome the injuries that they seem to always have,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: and they are a good team. They're undefeated so far.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: And then you had a game Thursday night between the
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Seahawks who were who I'm sorry, who are yeah? Who
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: are too? And one? And the Cardinals who are two
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: and one going into the game. And I think both
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: of these teams are pretty good. They're not great. They're
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: missing some things, especially on offense. They're not fully complete.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: But they're both teams that have some some good defensive
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: players that are playing well defensively, still trying to figure
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: out who they are offensively, but they're not They're teams
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: that you have to show up and beat. You can't
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: play your C plus game and beat the Seahawks and
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: the Cardinals. And now the Seahawks are three and one
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: after sort of escaping with the twenty three to twenty win.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: They're on the last second field goal in a game
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: that they were up fourteen to three at one point,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: which showed you the Cardinals themselves had a little fight
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: in them. It was a good NFC West battle. And
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: the Cardinals are quote unquote the worst of the division
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: and they're two and two, so and that was their
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: you know chance really at home to I felt have
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: a better game. You know, they've only beaten the Saints
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: and the Panthers so far. You know, they lost a
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: one point game to the Niners and now they've lost
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: a three point game to the Seahawks, so they're they're
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: in it in their division. I mean, they're not getting
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: blown out. But watching that game was really frustrating. I
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: think this offense has catered Drew Petsing offense with the
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: outside zone, with the play action, is catering to some
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: of Kyler Murray's strengths. He seems to be over the
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: last few years, since coming back from that knee injury,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: a more efficient quarterback. I know he threw two picks.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: You guys saw it. I mean one looked like a
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: complete miscommunication on a route concept and the other was
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: actually a should have been a catch. I mean just
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: bounces off I think it was Marvin Harrison's hands and
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: goes right into the receiver the d back's hands. These
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: were not two interceptions that earlier in the career you
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: would say, Kyler Murray, what are you doing right? So
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: the Cardinals were frustrating to watch because I don't think
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: they're capitalizing on Kyler Murray's ability to beat you with
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: his arm and his legs. It seems like his own.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: He had a big run in the second half that
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: was not designed. It was a scramble, and earlier in
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: the game he had some scrambles and he would just
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: go dive. I get that Kyler had the knee injury
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, and he worked hard to
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: come back from that, and there's always been this uncertainty
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: about whether or not he's going to be their quarterback
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: of the future. But he has been. They haven't drafted anybody,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: but they seem I don't know why. They seem reluctant
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: to want to get him more involved in the running
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: offense the way he say the Eagles get Jailer Hurts involved,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: or Lamar with the Ravens, or Josh Allen with the Bills.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying Kyler is as good of a player,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: but he's a very explosive runner, low compact to the ground,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: low leverage, speedy guy who is shifty and hard to tackle,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: and I just think that they're missing something right now. Offensively,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: it looked like for the first half half the players
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: didn't want to be there. On offense, Marvin Harrison, who
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: has not been the guy that I thought he would
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: be a lot of people thought he would be. I mean,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: the Cardinals thought he would be. They drafted him, I
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: think fourth overall. He just hasn't been that guy. He
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: did catch touchdown later in the game, but right now,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: the offenses throw it to Tray McBride, try to throw
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: it to Marvin Harrison. Hope that everybody's on the same page,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: which it doesn't look like it is. Right now, You're
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: trying to get a running game going without without James Connor,
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: who's on IR so you're giving the ball to two
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: different running backs. Steve Mercado is the pass catching back.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: They're trying to run the ball with Benson. It's just
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: not a good offense, and it's an offense that lacks playmakers.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: After Harrison and after McBride, who, by the way, had
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: twenty two twenty one combined targets. Right. I mean Murray
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: threw the bow forty one times fifty percent of the time.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: It's going to those two guys. And then you got
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Greg dorch Benson, the running back Michael Wilson, who. I
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: just think that Cardinals missed a really big opportunity in
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: the offseason to do more to spice up their offense.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: You know, you've got McBride, you got Harrison. Harrison wasn't
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: lights out as a rookie. You could have banked on
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: some improvement by year two. But this team just is
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: lackluster offensively, and it doesn't look like they play for
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. I mean they were dropping his passes, they
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: were not in communication, in sync with him, and then
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Kyler's got to go to the sideline and say, hey,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: here's what we gotta do. And I think that his
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: leadership has always been questioned, and you could see it
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: in that game. I think he's not a bad quarterback.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: He's got a great arm, throws off his back foot
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: a little bit too much, but he can make things
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: happen with his own legs. He can keep plays alive,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: and he can get he can throw at the tight windows.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: You saw him thread it to Harrison and McBride a
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: couple of times. He can do these things, but he's
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: got no weapons around him. The weapons don't seem interested
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: in playing with him, and he doesn't seem interested in
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: rallying the troops and getting everybody on the same page.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: So I feel like it's a missed opportunity. Because the
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Cardinals are a pretty good defense. They're getting better, and
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: I think they'll be in the thick of it in
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: the NFC West, But I just I'm not inspired by
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: their offensive play. Jonathan Gannon, he's the defensive minded guy.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he cares enough offensively. I don't
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: know if he's been able to get through to Kyler
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Murray and his offensive weapons. But through three weeks now
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: four weeks, sorry, four weeks because they played their fourth game,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: they are not lighting up the scoreboard and they look
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: like a very lackluster offensive team. And I get it
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: because they just don't have a whole lot of weapons
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: that make you think that they're going to be any good.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: So the defense can only do some I mean, they
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: scored Their high point is twenty seven against Panthers Week two.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: After that, twenty against the Saints, fifteen against the Niners,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: and now twenty against the Seahawks. So I just think
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: it's a golden opportunity for the Cardinals to really finally
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: become more relevant that's being wasted now. On the flip side,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: I also think the Seahawks don't have that much offensively,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: much like the Cardinals. They got one guy or two
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: guys that they want to throw to and Jackson Smith
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: and Jigba is one of the best in the league
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: in year. I think this is year three for him.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: He really came on last year. They traded Metcalf, they
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: made him the guy. He's showing he can be the guy,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: but they really, you know, the rookie tight end Arroyo
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: hasn't really carved his role yet. I told you guys
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: week one about the rookie that they have in Tory Horton.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: He didn't really have a big game, but he will
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: come on as the season goes. But they're another team
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: that has a defensive minded head coach and so what
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: they want to do is run ball, and they ran
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: the ball fairly well with Walker and Sharbonne. But you see,
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: they don't have enough to pull away, right, They didn't
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: have enough. They kept the Cardinals kept in the game.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: They were up seventeen to three at one point in
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the third quarter, and they just couldn't put their their
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: their pedal to the medal, or they couldn't choke them out,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: whatever analogy you want to use, and that game wound
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: up being too close for comfort them and they needed
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: a fifty two yard field goal at the end. I
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: just don't think they have enough offensively. And are they
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: a good defense? Yes? Are they good enough like the
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: league in a boom to just dominate teams week in
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: and week out defensively and squeak by on twenty to
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: twenty three points? No, so three and one looks good.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Had a nice game against the Steelers a couple of
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: weeks ago. But I questioned Theirs and Arizona's ability in
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: the end to hang with the Rams and a healthy
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: forty nine Ers team. You never know what the forty
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: nine ers, so, if they're healthy, okay, if not, different story. Hey,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: you know that one guy in the group chat who
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: hit a five leg parlay week one, and he wouldn't
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: shut up about it for the rest of the season.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Sounds like kaplan, right, yeah, yeah, it could be him,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: It could be you, and we would all want to
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: be you. My bookie makes it stupid easy to get

  Speaker 1: show notes and support the show. Obviously, you got a
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: game in Europe this week. It is in Ireland. Actually,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: the Vikings and the Steelers. We all know, you know
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: the Steelers, the Rooney family, their ties to Ireland. That
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: is why this game is being played there. It is
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: a nine to thirty game. The line is the Vikings
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: are two and a half point favorites. So the Vikings
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: gave you one of those wins last week where you
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: wonder like, oh, did they just find something or was
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: that one of those fluky wins. They welcomed the Cincinnati Bengals,
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: the Jake Browning lead Cincinnati Bengals, and they absolutely pummeled
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: them in Carson Wentz's first start. Now listen, if you
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: saw the box score and saw Vikings forty eight Bengals ten,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: you probably thought, holy cow, Kevin O'Connell has done it again.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Carson Wentz must have looked like Sam Darnold last year, folks,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: Carson Wentz was along for the ride. He was fourteen
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: of twenty for one hundred and seventy three yards. When
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: you score forty eight points, you think your quarterback lit
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: it up. It was less that and more of Isaiah
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Rodgers having a sixty six yard fumble return and Isaiah
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Rodgers having an eighty seven yard interception return and Jordan
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Mason running for one hundred and sixteen yards and two touchdowns.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Sure Wentz distributed the ball. He didn't throw any interceptions,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: which is always the thing with Carson. He was only
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: sacked three times, which you know for Carson's that's a
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: good game. But the bottom line is, I listen, I
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: think the Vikings are very good in the trenches and
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: that'll enable them to survive having Carson Wentz as their
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: quarterback for now. As long as Carson's not turning the
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: ball over, and they obviously caught the Bengals at the
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: right time. The Bengals couldn't do anything. Listen, we know
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Brian Flores is one of the best going to co
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: match you. He's gonna come match you. He's gonna come
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: atch you, all right, And he came at Jake Browning
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: and Jake Browning was not ready for it. So I'm
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: not gonna be the type of person that now says
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: the Bengals are gonna stink for the next seven or
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: eight weeks or nine weeks, ten weeks, however long that
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: Burrow is out just because of this result. But I
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: do think the Vikings have a good run game with
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Jordan Mason, and they'll eventually get Aaron Jones back. They
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: have a good defensive line, good pass rush, great defensive coordinator,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: good offensive line, So I think that they will be
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: able to survive here without without JJ mc karthy, who
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: obviously wasn't lighting it up. People want to know, is
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: there a chance that Carson Wentz can claim this job
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: and bear the reclamation guy. I don't know. I think
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: we're we're too early in the Seedaron. You know, they
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: got the Steelers this week. We'll see, then they face
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: a tough defense against the Browns. Then they got the
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: buy then they got the Eagles, then they got the Chargers,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: then they got the Lions, then they got the Ravens.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: So let's not put the cart before the horse. That
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: is a brutal, brutal stretch. So they just have to
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: take care of business this week against the Steelers in
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Ireland and then we'll see what happens against Cleveland. Go
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: into the bye week and get get ready for that
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: gambit that they have to face the Steelers are not
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: The Steelers, don't get fooled. I know that they won
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: last week and against the Patriots, and they only won
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: twe They won twenty one to fourteen in New England
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: by him self. That's good. They're two and one. They
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: forced five turnovers in that game. How do you force
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: five turnovers in a game? You get five takeaways and
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: you only win by a touchdown. In fact, the game
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: was tied in the fourth quarter and then Aaron Rodgers
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: threw a touchdown the fourth quarter. To me, that shows
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: you that the Steelers are very full in the five
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: two years ago, three years ago, four years ago. You
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: give Mike Tomlin and the Steelers five turnovers, guess what
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: they're gonna pummel you. But they still have no run game,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: they still have a moderate passing game, and while their
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: defense might have picked up the pace after a rough
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: first few weeks, it was just the Patriots. So I
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: can't make too much And it wouldn't shock me at
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: all if the Vikings were able to win this game again.
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: Their two and a half point favorites for a reason.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's got to beat somebody. We'll see, We'll see what
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: they can do. Against this Vikings pass rush Washington at Atlanta. Folks,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know about the Falcons. They are one and
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: a half point favorites. I think that's mostly because they're
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: home and because Washington is probably gonna be on their
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: backup quarterback. They're probably gonna be without Terry McLaurin. Doesn't
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: look good for McLaurin. He may have to have the
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: core surgery. They've got an injury at the running back position.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: So they're one and a half point favorites. But I
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: can't trust the Falcons to beat anybody after they just
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: lost at to the Panthers. Panthers took the first two
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: weeks of the season off and then beat them thirty
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: to nothing. I got all excited about the Falcons and
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: their six sacks a couple of weeks ago when they
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: beat the Vikings, and then they go and just lay
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: an absolute egg against the Panthers who just suddenly wake up.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: The Panthers wake up and wax the Falcons there's something wrong,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: and then listen. I like Raheem Morris as a coach.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: I think he's good. I think he has a chance
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: and the potential to be a good coach everywhere he
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: has been as an assistant. They have loved him. You know,
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: he had that head coach job way too early in
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: his career, way too young with Tampa. He left there.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: He wound up having a few I think he was
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: in Washington. He's with the Rams, and everywhere he went
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: they would rave about him. He's a good coach, but
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: you go and being a coach is not always about
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: x's nose. It's about how you are a leader of men.
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: You lose thirty nothing in Carolina, what do you do?
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: You fire your wide receivers. Coach, that's gonna fix your problem.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: You just give up thirty points to an offense. Excuse me?
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: That took the first two weeks of the season off.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: So not a good look for Rahee Morris. Not a
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: good look for the Falcons. They're one and two. I'm
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: frankly not sure why they're favored in this game other
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: than the injuries to Washington, but it would not It
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: wouldn't phase me in the slightest if the Commanders still
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: went in there and won that game. Mariota has played
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: well for the last two years when he's been asked
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: to step in, looks like a completely different quarterback. Dan
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Quinn has done a nice job overcoming the injuries. I
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: thought the Echoler injuryer would hurt them for one week.
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: It not.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: They It's not exactly playing murderers Row, but you know,
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: behind Mariota and they were able to beat the Raiders.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: I thought they would. They stomped on them forty one
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: to twenty four. And honestly, going to the Falcons probably
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: isn't that much of a concern for them either. So
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: Alana's got a lot to show here, folks. And Rahee Morris,
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: you're gonna fire your wide receivers coach after you lose
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: thirty to nothing. Now the spotlight's on you, my friend.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: So I'm sure Arthur Blank, the owner, can't be very
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: happy about that Buffalo is hosting the New Orleans Saints.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: This quite could quite possibly be the best or second
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: best NFL team versus the worst. Clearly the worst, and
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: so that's why the Bills are six fourteen and a
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: half point favorites at home. Wouldn't surprise me if that
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: line got even bigger. That's a big line to cover.
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: But if a team's gonna cover that, it'll be the
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Bills at home against the Saints. The Bills are clicking
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: right now. I mean, their only real tough opponent was
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Week one when they beat the Ravens on that huge
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: comeback when they were down fifteen. They beat the Jets,
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: they beat Dolphins. Now they get the Saints and then
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: they'll have the love the Patriots and Falcons after the
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: Bills may not lose. All right. Here's the Bill schedule.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Saints Week four, Patriots Week five, Falcons week six, bye week,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Week seven. The bye week might give them the toughest
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: time Week eight, Carolina Panthers. All right, they don't face
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: a real opponent until the Kansas City Chiefs November second,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Week nine. It's gonna be cold out right now where
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: I live, it's eighty degrees. It'll probably be cold out.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: May even be snowing in Buffalo for that game November two,
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: who knows. But that's how the Bills are on a
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: highway right now. And listen, if you're in a survivor
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: league and you haven't taken the Bills yet and you want,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: you got any of the next six weeks to be
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: able to take them, so you know, do that at
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: your own discretion. Browns at Lions Browns are nine and
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: a half point underdogs. The Browns shocked the world. They
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: beat the Packers last week. It wasn't a pretty game.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: They won seventeen to ten. But I told you this
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: the brown I told you just going into the year.
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: The Browns had some ugly moments, but their defense is
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: pretty good. They gave up sixteen in a loss to
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: the Bengals Week one. They lost that game seven. I'm
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: sorry they give up seventeen. They lost seventeen sixteen. They
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: got pounded by the Ravens. That's an AFC North game
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: that's always gonna be weird. And then they welcome the
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: Packers in New Cleveland and they went thirteen to ten.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: So so far they've held two of their three opponents
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: under eighteen points. Bengals scored seventeen, Packers scored ten, and
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: by the way, that was the Joe Burrow Bengals. So
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: they've held Borrow and love to modest yards here so
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: their defense can play. This is a totally different animal
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: this week though. They're playing Alliance team that is absolutely
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: on fire since losing the Green Bay and the opener.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: Fifty two points against the Bears, thirty eight points against
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: the Ravens, who continue to play poorly on defense in
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: the second half and turn the ball over. But you
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: give them credit. They have found it. I was worried
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: about their OWD line, but they have run the ball well.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: They have mixed the run pass. It seems like they
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: have hit their stride. I don't think they're gonna go
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: into Cleveland and come out with thirty five to fifty points,
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: but they know what they're doing, they know how to score.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: I think this one will be a tough one for Cleveland.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry this game's in Detroit, so that makes it
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: even tougher. It's a nice track speed for the Lions,
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: and Lions are nine and a half point favorites. I
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: expect them to win. The Panthers at the Patriots, Folks,
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: this game, this game just stinks looking at it. Honestly,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Again, I don't know what got into
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: the Panthers last week and they're thirty to nothing win.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: It was a good job by Dave Canalis kind of
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: rallying the team. It's not again. This wasn't a game
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: where the offense came alive. Bryce Young had one hundred
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: and twenty one yard. I didn't throw a touchdown, but
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: he didn't also throw an interception. They ran the ball, okay,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: they got a couple of big field goals, they got
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: a couple of touchdown runs, they had interception return. It's
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: just basically that the Falcons stuck and the Panthers took
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: advantage of it. Now, can the Panthers get to two
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: and two this week against the Patriots in New England?
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: Good question. I don't know. I don't know what New
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: England Patriots team is going to show up because they
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: have been a weird team this year as well. You know,
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: they lose to the Raiders in the season opener, they
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: come back and beat the Dolphins in a big divisional
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: game for them, and then they lose to the Steelers
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: and turn the ball over five times. I guarantee you
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: this if they turn the ball. If they turned the
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: ball over five times against the Panthers, they'll lose. I
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: would guess that if they don't turn the ball over,
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: they'll probably beat the Panthers. I think they're better overall
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: than the Panthers. They're at home, so to expect the
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: Patriots to win their five and a half point favorites.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: But who can guarantee it? I don't know. Enough about
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: these two teams right now, and I'm not impressed with
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: either of them. Chargers at Giants one o'clock game. Now,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: this will be the most exciting game between an unbeaten
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: team and a winless team of the afternoon because the Giants.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: The Giants have decided to throw the master plan out
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: the window and bench Russell Wilson after three games, and
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: they're going with the wonder kid, Jackson Dart. That's what
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: everybody wants to see, all the fans want to see
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: because oh, he was great in the preseason. Well, reality
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: check for Jackson Dart. Your first game will come against
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: the Chargers. Good luck, all right, The unbeaten Chargers, who
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: have all three wins, have come against AFC West opponents.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: They've beaten the Broncos, the Chiefs, and they've beaten the Raiders. Okay,
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: so they're off to a pretty good start and their
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: defense looks pretty good. All right, So welcome to the NFL,
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Jackson Dart. You gotta go play the three and zero
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: charge at least your home and then you get your
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: first gift. You go on the road Week five for
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: the Saints. All right, great, you play the worst team
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: in football. Maybe you get a win, and then Jackson Dart,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: you will then place play in order the Eagles, the Broncos,
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: the Eagles again, and the forty nine ers. All Right,
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: you might get a little bit of a break after
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: that with the Bears. I don't know what the Bears
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: are going to be back then or at that point.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: They did look impressive last week, and then you got
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: to face the Packers and Lions after that. So what
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: are we expecting for Jackson Dart here that we weren't
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: getting from the oh and three Giants? I don't know.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: Can he beat the Saints? Sure? Could? Russell Wilson have
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: probably beaten the Saints, I would think so. Again, it's
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: about the offensive line and getting Andrew Thomas back. It's
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: about being able to get a lead on a team
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: so that your four man rush, which has all these
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: studs on it, can actually off on the quarterback. They
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: never have a lead. They're gonna have a lead against
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: the Chargers. I feel like this is a a and
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: I don't even understand how this saves Brian Dable, right
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: because he's now bringing in Jackson Dark to face some
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: really tough teams. So if they are one in six,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: one and seven. It doesn't look good. It looks like
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: you're not getting a job done. He could have waited
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: to be one in six and one and seven, then
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: put Dart in and tried to get Dart some wins
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: against the Bears, the Patriots second half of the schedule,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: Vikings Raiders. But he's going to them early. Well, I
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: guess I gotta give him credit for that. He's thrown
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: Jackson Dart to the Wolves and he's putting his job
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: security in the line here. But I would not expect
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: like you'll get some juice. They'll get Jackson Dart involved
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: in the running game. Maybe he'll do a little bit
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: better job getting the ball to Malik Neighbors. But I
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: think throwing him against Jesse Minter's defense in his first
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: start is certainly a baptism by fire. And if I'm
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: the Chargers six and a half point favorites on the road,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to it. Eagles Bucks Great games should
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: be really good. I'm reading that it's going to be
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: one hundred and three degrees on the field, which is
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: typical of an Eagles Bucks game because they always wind
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: up playing in September or early October. They always play
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: at the Pirate Chip. For whatever reason, it's been a
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: house of hors for the Eagles. Thinks they've lost six
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: of last seven overall to the Bucks. But this will
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: be interesting because aj Brown is expected to play. He
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: usually misses this game. Mike Evans not expected to play.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: He's out with a hamstring. So this will be the
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: game where the Eagles will fuel for once that maybe
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: they have the injury advantage. Even though the Eagles have
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: some injuries on their own, but Tampa Bay's offensive line
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: really beat up. We're going to cover it all on
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: Inside the Birds pregame show. We did cover it all myself,
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: Adam Kaplan and Greg Cosel. I expect it to be
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: a pretty fun game though, and clearly, of all the
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: games I've mentioned so far, this problem feels like the
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: one that has the potential, just like last week's one,
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: to be most exciting and have the most intrigue. Titans
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: at Texans. Now, if you would have told me that
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: Week four the Titans and Texans was going to be
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: a battle of two zero to three teams, I would
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: have said, that's nonsense. You know that I was higher
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: on the Texans than what their record suggests their offense
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: has been terrible. I don't know what the fix for
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: them is other than just getting continuity and protecting CJ. Stroud.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: They need to do a better job. So far they
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: have been an embarrassment, not bad, an embarrassment on offense.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: They have scored thirty eight total points. Okay, thirty eight
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: points in three games. The Lions have leave scored that
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: twice already this year in a single game. An embarrassment.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: It's got to turn around, and it has to start
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: against the Titans team that is equally reeling. A Titans
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: team that itself. They've actually scored more points. They've scored
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: forty one points, but have given up a lot the
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: last two weeks. They give thirty three to the Rams,
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: they get forty one to the Colts. It's now or
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: never for the Texans man and that offense or else
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: something's going to have to be done. Demko has done
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: a fine job with that defense. It's not a question
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: of that. They have a very good defense. They haven't
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: allowed more than twenty points yet in a game. But Demiko,
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: it's got to find a better offensive game plan. He
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: fired Bobby Slowk after last year. They made some improved well,
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: they made some moves offensively to bring in Christian Kirk
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: to try to fix the line, and Kirk has three
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: catches for twenty five yards last week. Right now, they
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: have to force feed Nico Collins. They don't have much
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: of a running game. I said last week, I thought
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: they had need to get Woody Marks Moore involved six
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: rushers twenty seven yards. They really got to get him
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: the ball in his hands, out out of the backfield.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: Let them catch a ball. But scoring ten points against
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: the Jaguars, I've there making the Jaguars look like the
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: eighty five Bears. Let's go. Come on, Texans, like you
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: were in the playoffs last year. You won your playoff
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: game against the Chargers, and you gave the Chiefs a
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: good game in the divisional round. Then you start off
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: zero to three against these three teams. I mean, you
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: aren't playing murderers, Row Here, Rams, Bucks, Jags. Okay, the
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: Rams and Bucks are good, but you were in the
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: divisional round last year. You can't be owing three. Show
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: me some offense, show me some life, my god. I mean,
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, folks, but I had a little bit higher
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: expectations for this Texans team, and they're just an embarrassment
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: right now. On offense, they need to figure it out somehow.
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: They're seven and a half point favorites against the Titans.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: I don't know if they're gonna cover. I think they're
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: gonna win. I don't know if they can cover seven
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: and a half. Because the beat a team by seven,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: a you gotta win by eight. That means you got
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: score eight more points in your opponent. Can I score
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: eight more points than anybody? Sports are all about competition.

• 35:01
  Speaker 1: pros camedn Apothecary, top quality cannabis, great prices, and an
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: experience made for Philly fans. Twenty one and up. Colts
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: at Rams. This is the second best game. This is
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: a four o'clock game, so probably the best of the four,
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: second best of the four o'clock games, maybe the second
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: best game of the weekend. Credit to Colts. It truly
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: does look like Daniel Jones is now becoming last year's
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: Sam Darnold. I mean he's doing everything he needs to
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: do to win and then some he's playing well, not
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: just getting by. They scored forty one points against the Titans,
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: they scored twenty nine against that Broncos defense, and they
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: waxed the Dolphins. They are averaging over thirty points per game,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: and obviously their ability to move the ball with Daniel
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: Jones at quarterback has really opened it up for their
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: great running back Jonathan Taylor, who is off to a
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: great start, and they are they're defensively, they've been pretty good,
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: not great. I give up twenty eight to the Broncos.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: The Titans don't have much of an offense to measure
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: them again, so this will be a very good measuring
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: stick game, because they're gonna go play a RAMS team
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: out in LA that is either gonna do one of
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: two things. They're either gonna have a hangover from blowing
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: it against the Eagles, or they're gonna be so freaking
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: motivated to get back on the field and get that
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: sour taste in their mouth that they're gonna want to
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: really really get back in the win column and feel
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: like they should be undefeated. So they're three and a
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: half point favorites. It's a tough game to call. I
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: wouldn't touch this one. Any team can win. These are
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: two teams that run the ball really, really well and
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: pass the ball deliberately and methodically. Stafford missed a bunch
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: of bits. Stafford is the one who's gonna look at
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: himself in the mirror after that Eagles loss and say,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: I blew it. I had five or six throws where
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: there was not pressure in my face that I could
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: have made the right throw. I either led a guy
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: throw it high. Stafford doesn't ordinarily do that, And if
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: he does it again against the Colts and they win,
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: you gotta wonder what's going on with him, Because his
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: first two weeks were really good tape was really good,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: but he missed a lot of throws against the Eagles.
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: This will be a good games, will be a good game,
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: and I'll look forward to it. Jags it forty nine
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: ers forty nine ers or three and a half point favorites.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Now it looks like they'll get Purty back this week,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: and they almost have to because as it is with
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: the forty nine ers, Mac Jones got hurt. I think
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: it was a PCL injury, so I don't think he'd
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: be able to play. But it looks like Party will
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: come back. They're still dealing with Kittle's injury. They're riding
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey. Jwan Jennings is another guy that has been
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: banged up. So right now their operation is get the
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: ball to McCaffrey, who has stayed healthy, who has looked great,
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: has been the bell cow for them in absence of
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: not having Ayuk and not having Kittle, Pure Saul has
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: been really good. They listen, you know that all all
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: the Niners need is a few weapons and they can
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: move the change. They're not blowing up the scoreboard by
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: any means, but they are undefeated. They haven't played really
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: tough opponents. I mean, they just edged the Cardinals sixteen
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: to fifteen last Sunday. They just barely beat the Saint
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: who are awful, but they're three and oh. They beat
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks, a Seahawks team that since that game has
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: looked pretty good. And if they can beat the Jaguars
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: at home, they go to four and oh, and it
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: just gives them another week before they get Kiddle, before
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: they get Ayuk back, and before they're fully healthy. And honestly,
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: I think that they can beat this game. I know
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: the Jags are two and one. They have not looked
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: impressive to me at two and one. You know that again,
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: they beat the Texans seventeen ten. Their defense has looked
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: very good outside of giving up thirty one to the
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: Bengals in Week two, but also probably looked good because
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: they've a Texans offense that stinks right now in a
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: Panthers offense that stinks. So I don't know. I don't
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: know who the Jags are. I don't believe in them yet.
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: I woul it wouldn't surprise me if not only did
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: the forty nine ers win this game, but if they
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: won it by they covered pretty decently. Three and a
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: half point favorites. If Jacksonville wins this game, I will
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: probably have to start to reevaluate them what they are
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: defensively and get over the fact that Trevor Lawrence has
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: been unable to get the ball to Brian Thomas has
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: been able to get the ball to Travis Hunter, and
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: that overall this offense, this Jags offense, which I thought
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: would look a lot better with Liam Cohen, has looked very,
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: very pedestrian so far. Now the other four to twenty
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: five game, this could be a great game. It could
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: be just as good as Colts and Rams if the
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: Chiefs and the Ravens sort of play a Chiefs Ravens game.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: Red Chiefs haven't been themselves this year. I mean, they
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: did beat the Giants, but it's not like they were
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: poetry in motion and doing it. They just needed to win.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: They went out to New York, they got to New Jersey,
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: got their win twenty two to nine. So it was
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: good on them to be able to kind of just
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: get into the win column. They got the ball to
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: Taekwon Thornton in this game, but again, the Giants kind
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: of stink defensively. But I do think it was important
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: for them in the absence of a running game right now,
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: and I still think they're going to have to make
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: a move to get themselves a better running back. But
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: in the absence of that, Mahomes only had to run
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: for two yards against the Giants. They were able to
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: get Thornton the ball. They got the ball to Kelsey
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: a little bit, Marquise Brown a little bit. It sounds
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: like Worthy, Zavi. You're Worthy's gonna be able to play.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: So if that's the case, and they can get him
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: the ball and he can open some things up, and
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: you know the Chiefs are gonna be at home. You
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: know their defense is going to be good. And let's
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: face it, this Ravens team has looked pretty poor defensively
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: through three weeks. Remember what I said in my first
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: show the Ravens last year, Fear their last eight games
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: had the second best scoring and total defense in the NFL,
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: right behind the Eagles. And not only did they bring
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: back all their important players on defense, they went out
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: and got Jayirra Alexander. I had the Ravens as my
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: number one team going into the season, right over the Eagles,
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: just because I felt from a fifty three standpoint bringing
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: everybody back from that defense and then adding Alexander. We
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: know how good Lamar and the offense is. I thought
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: they would be okay, but it seems like they're having
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: a hangover from the way they lost in the divisional
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: round to the Bills last year because they turned. They
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: were beating the Bill soundly on the road in the
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: season opener, than Derek Henry fumbles and then all hell
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: breaks lose for their defense and they lose forty one
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: to forty. Then they come home, they beat the Browns
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: because it's the Browns. But then last week they're home
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: against the Lions. They look somewhat in control of that.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, it was a neck and neck game. They
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: were up twenty eight to twenty four, and then bad
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: things happen. The Derrick Henry fumble really hurt them again.
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, who does not fumble a whole lot, just
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: he gets kind of stripsacked from behind, which is surprising.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: And I forget who made the player think it was
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: Aden Hutchinson, So credit to agent Aiden Hutchinson. He makes
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: a play from behind where he gets the ball out
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: of Henry's hands and Henry fumbles, and at that point,
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: so Detroit's up at that point twenty eight to twenty four, right,
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: and at that point he fumbles, the Lions get it back.
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: They immediately convert the field goal. They go up thirty
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: one to twenty four. Then they tack on another one.
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: David Montgomery had a great game, great game, one hundred
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: and fifty one yards, two touchdowns on the ground, and
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: they win that game. And that's an impressive win for Detroit.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: But you're the Lion. I'm sorry, you're the Ravens, and
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: you have now blown it twice. This game was more
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: neck and neck. It's not like you're up fifteen points,
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: but it just feels like your second half defense is
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: really hurting you. They were up twenty one to fourteen
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: in the third quarter when Mark Andrews caught a touchdown,
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: so they were up in that game in the second half.
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: So yeah, you look at this game and you say,
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: I have blown it now twice in the first three weeks.
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: I've blown it against good teams. But I'm supposed to
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: be a good team. Where the Baltimore Ravens. All right now,
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: we're one and two and we got to go to
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: Kansas City, and you know, this is always a great
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: game between these two. If they lose, the Ravens lose
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: this game and fall to one and three. They do
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: have some tough games on the schedule. They got the
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: Rams in Week six, so that would put them in
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: a tough spot. They're AFC North games are traditionally tough.
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: We'll see about the Texans in week five, Bears week eight.
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, listen, they should be all right once they
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: get past their Week seven by because it's Bears, Dolphins, Vikings, Browns, Jets, Bengals, Steelers,
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: so Bengals again. I mean, they'll they'll be fine. They're
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: gonna be in the playoffs. You're gonna win double digit games.
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: But these measuring stick games earlier in the year, they're
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: clearly haven't measured up yet. And that surprises me from
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: a Ravens team that I thought was gonna be really
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: good going into the year. The Bears on the road
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: against the the Vegas Raiders, so the Raiders think then,
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: yet they are one and a half point favorites at home.
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: I just think Pete Carroll's got a lot of work
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: to do with this team. They're they're on paper better
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: than they've been in the past. I mean Gino is
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: a capable quarterback. They're not getting the ball enough to genty.
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: We have not seen really explosive plays from him. They're
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: kind of their passing game is not going to rock
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: Bauers the way I thought it would be. In fact,
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: I think Trey Tucker is is there a leading receiver.
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: They're just they're kind of like a discombobulated team right now,
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: which is sort of very Las Vegas Raiders. It's just
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: Raiders to be discombobulated. But they come home and they'll
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: play the Bears, and the Bears. Look. I challenged Brian Johnson.
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: I said, I didn't like the way you threw your
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: team under the bus after you got your ass kicked
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: by the Lions. And they responded to his challenge. At
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: least he said they didn't practice like a championship level team.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: I thought that was an asenine statement from a coach's
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: never won a championship as a head coach or coordinator.
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: So I didn't know what he was expecting. But you
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: give him credit. They were home, they welcomed the Cowboys,
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: they were underdogs. They didn't only win, but they pounded
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys, and so that was a good bounce back win.
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: This is another one of those weeks where do you
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: judge the Bears off of Week three and Week three
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: only and not taking account that they looked bad against
• 45:55
  Speaker 1: terrible against the Lions, and they blew a lead against
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: the Vikings and started off only too. So do you
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: go and say, oh, they're completely turned around and beating
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys, so now they're gonna go thrash the Raiders.
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, this is anyone's game. Wouldn't shock
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: me if the Raiders won this game. I'm not sitting
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: here touting the Bears just because of one win. But
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: I will say the connection between Caleb Williams and Rome
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: Donzay is looking really good right now. Brian Johnson does
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: have the offense, at least against the Cowboys. I like
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: what he's got going on with Caleb Williams and getting
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: the ball to a Luther Burden, which I said last
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: week they talked about wanting to get in the ball.
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: Luther Burden three catches for one hundred and one yards.
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: Roman Dunsay three catches sixty two yards in a touchdown.
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: So it looks like those two guys are becoming a
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: bigger part of the offense. I wonder if TJ. Moore
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: is getting phased out a little bit, still waiting on
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: Colston Lovelin to become a bigger part. But this is
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: where the Bears need to capitalize. Okay, this is where
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: you're Brian Johnson. You challenge your team, they respond, Now
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: let's go. Let's see what you got. Now, you got
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: a winnable game against the Raiders. Okay. The week after that,
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: you get your rematch against the Commanders, a game you
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: should have won last year but blew it on a
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: Hail Mary. And then you get the Saints. So you
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: got two of three games coming up that are winnable.
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: Commanders will be tough. I would say two of three
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: games are winnable. Win two of those three, Brian Johnson,
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: and I will start to question you less than your
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: coaching strategies. Eight twenty game, green Bay at Dallas. I
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: remember this being a playoff game a couple of years
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: ago and Dallas completely crapping the bed and Jordan Love
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: really coming alive. Now Green Bay goes into a Dallas.
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: Now do I judge Green Bay off of a complete
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: egg lay against the Browns a bad game for Jordan
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: Love or do I look at the bigger picture and say,
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: this Green Bay team is still very good. They failed
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: their first test away from Lambeau. Now they got a
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: big test in Dallas, where Micah Parsons will make his return.
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: I'm sure that might only be mentioned five, six hundred
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: and thirty two times between Tarico and Collinsworth. I'm sure
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: that it'll be the main storyline to me, the bigger storyline.
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: I guess Dallas is getting a little healthier in the secondary,
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: but I don't believe in that Dallas defense. It just
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: got shredded by the Bears. The Packers, I think are
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: better offensively than they showed. Now Jacobs is banged ups,
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: dealing with an injury. We'll see if he plays. If
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: he doesn't play, might be a totally different Green Bay
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: team because they rely on the run as much as
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: any you know, the Rams, the Eagles, any of those
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: teams that like to run the ball. Green Bay is
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: right up there. If Jacobs is banged up and not
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: one hundred percent advantage Dallas, the Green Bay are six
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: and a half point favorites. They should be six and
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: a half point favorites. That's Vegas not taking last week
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: into account. Well it is. It's taking last week because
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys also got their butts kicked in in Chicago.
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: I think green Bay win. I think Parsons is gonna
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: have a big game. Shocker there. I think Green Bay
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: is gonna win. It may not be as easy as
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: they've beaten the Cowboys in the past. I don't know
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: if they cover the six and a half. If Jacobs
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: is hurt and doesn't play or comes out, then it's
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: a closer game than you think. But the Packers should
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: win this game. Then you get two Monday night games again.
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: You got an AFSE snoozefest between the Jets and Dolphins. Folks,
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry you have to watch this on Monday night football.
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: That's all all I have to say. Miami found a
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: few things offensively, I guess in their last two weeks.
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: You know, they scored twenty seven against the Patriots, scored
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: twenty one against the Bills. Looked like Tua was doing
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: a better job of getting the ball to Tyreek Hill,
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: getting the ball to Waddle against the Bills. But their
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: defense absolutely stinks right now. Now we'll see if Justin
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: Fields can play. He was in the concussion protocol, but
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: he was out on the practice field. If he plays,
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: they're gonna try to run the ball. Can the Dolphins
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: stop the run? I don't. I don't know if the
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: Dolphins stop anything right now. The Jets are not an
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: offensive jugg or not, but they were representative in that
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: game against the Bucks. You know, they've blocked a field goal,
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: gave himself a chance. Only the Jets can block a
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: field goal and still lose the game. But they scored
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: twenty seven in that game, scored thirty two against the Steelers.
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: So against bad defenses or Bucks marks actually aren't a
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: bad defense. If they showed that they can do some things.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: You know, their offensive line is better. They showed that
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: they can play a little bit. Can they expose the
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: doll If the Dolphins lose this game, I'll tell you this,
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: heads will roll. If the Dolphins go to zero to
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: four and owen that would be oh to two in
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: their own division and can't even beat the Jets, who
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: are themselves are oh to three, then heads will roll.
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: And it wouldn't surprise me if Mike McDaniel's days would
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: be numbered. I like Mike McDaniel, but you know he
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: hasn't done a very good job last year, last year,
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: and in the first three games this year. He needs
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: to win this game to save his job. The Dolphins
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: are two and a half point favorites. They should win
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: the game. Honestly, I think they're the better team, but
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: the Jets are not going to make it easy for them,
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: and if they lose, heads will roll in Miami. That
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: owner Stephen Ross, he is not gonna put up with
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: this for much longer. And then there's the Bengals at
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: the Broncos eight to fifteen. Broncos are seven and a
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: half point favorites. I know everybody is thinking right now
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: that the Broncos are just gonna roll on the Bengals
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: and Jake Browning. It's in Denver. Denver's defense is vicious,
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: can be vicious, and Jake Browning looked terrible. I'm not
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: in that camp. Do I think the Broncos will win, Yes,
• 51:50
  Speaker 1: I think they'll win. Do I think the Bengals will
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: struggle offensively? Yes, I think they'll struggle offensively. Do I
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: expect the Bengals to lose by thirty eight points, No,
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: I don't. I expect Zach Taylor to figure some things out.
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: They still have two very good wide receivers. They still
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: have a very good running back that they got to
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: figure out a way to get more involved as a
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: ball carrier, and they have to figure out a way
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: to play a little bit more ball control, which is short,
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: top rhythm passes underneath. They got to get the ball
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: out quickly because that Broncos pass rush is lethal. I
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: think Zach Taylor is a good coach and can do that.
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: I know they have offensive line issues. We all know
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: that that's gonna hurt them against the Broncos. For sure.
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: I'm not expecting him to win, But I don't expect
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: that just because they lost by thirty eight points to
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: the Vikings that they will just do the same against
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: the Broncos. Now, the good thing for Jake Browning is
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: when you play a team like the Vikings, you know
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: Brian Flora is gonna come at you every direction possible.
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: You really need to run the ball well to keep
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: Flores's defense off you, and they were not able to
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: do that against the Vikings. They're going to do a
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: better job against the Broncos. But vance Joseph is the
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: same way. He's gonna throw a thousand different blitzes at
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: Jake Browning. So if anything, Jay can take what he
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: saw against the Vikings and apply at him and the
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: offensive staff to what they're probably gonna see against the Broncos,
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: which is a whole lot of pressure from a whole
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: lot of different directions. It's just the way both of
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: those defensive coordinators are wired. I would expect the Broncos
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: to play a better I'm sorry, the Bengals to play
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: a better game. Do they win? Not looking good? But
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: I don't think. I'm not of the mindset that just
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: because they got their rear ends kicked in one week
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: by the Vikings, that that's automatically going to happen in Denver.
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: I still have questions about Denver's offense. The Broncos to me,
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: are a good team. But listen, they've lost their last
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: two games because they only score twenty against the Chargers
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: and they only score twenty eight against the Colts and
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: twenty against the Titans, So in two of three games
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: they've looked lackluster offensively. Bengals don't have a great defense. However,
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: it is still in my mind a question mark of
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: how good this Broncos offense is. They should win, though,
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: and those are the Monday night games. That is the
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: entire week for slate time for my picks that I
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: will make.
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: Sky Motor Cars and West Gutter there was a different
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: building dealers all the Texas one one with their highline
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: pre own vehicles and people over the country. What the
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: motor Bretchetler make sure you don't spend the time with
• 54:32
  Speaker 2: your money before you've purchased the car. Sky motor Cars
• 54:35
  Speaker 2: allows you to make all the decisions regarding your next vehicle.
• 54:39
  Speaker 2: At sky motor Cars, you never have to spend more
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: than necessary. Becaus a Skymotorcars dot com today are called
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: six ten, nine to one, eight seven five.
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: I did not do a good job for I think
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: this happened to me last year in Week two and
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: Week three where you're still feeling out teams. But I
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: went oh and three of my picks again last week
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: after doing it in week two. I'm pretty sure I
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: did the same thing last year, and by the end
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: of the year, I was way way and I think
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: I was my clip. My win clip was between sixty
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: five and sixty eight percent. So that's that's the what
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: you get. The first month. You get a lot of
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: games that you're just not sure of and some unpredictable outcomes.
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: But hey, no excuses. I'm two and seven overall after
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: a pretty good start. Last two weeks have really hurt
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: me this week. I like the Chargers to cover their
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: six and a half against the Giants. I just listen.
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: I think the Giants can get a spark from Jackson Dart,
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: but not enough to beat a Chargers team that is
• 55:40
  Speaker 1: rolling right now. So maybe it'll be close. Maybe it'll
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: be a six point game going into the fourth, but
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: I could see the Chargers then pulling away on a
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: late touchdown and winning by like thirteen fourteen points. I
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: like the Chiefs at home getting two and a half
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: against the Ravens only because I think the Ravens defense
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: is not look good and if the Chiefs are getting
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: worthy back now, they got to win under their belt.
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: They are underdogs at home again. I think that's the
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: second time in three weeks that they're underdogs at home.
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: That that can't go well with the home team. I
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: think that Spagnolo, he knows what the Ravens do. He'll
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: have a good plan and listen, I think it could
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: be a one point game even if the Ravens win
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: by one. I win because I'm taking the Chiefs to
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: cover the two and a half. I wish it were
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: three and a half or three, but at least get
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: that push. If it's a Ravens by a field goal. However,
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: two and a half, I'm willing to lay it on
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: the line there. And I like the Vikings to beat
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: the Steelers in Dublin. I think that I'm not basing
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: this off last week. I just think that the Vikings
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: are really good in the trenches, and I don't believe
• 56:45
  Speaker 1: in this Steelers offense right now. They can't run the
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: ball and that's gonna lead to Brian Flores teeing off
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: on Aaron Rodgers. And right now, Rodgers only has one
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: real legit weapon without a running game. It's dk Metcalf
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: and the Steelers just not have not and impressive. So
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: all Carson Wentz has to do is not turn the
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: ball over three, four or five times, which is always
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: a little rough. But Kevin O'Connell is good at hiding
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: his quarterback when he needs to, and I think the
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: Vikings will cover the two and a half against the Steelers.
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: So that's it. Those are my picks. That is the
• 57:19
  Speaker 1: inside the Birds. Week four, NFL Preview. Everybody as always,
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: enjoy your football watching
