- 0:25Speaker 2: On Altitude Sports Radio ninety two five, it's Jet Legwold
- 0:39Speaker 2: time here on Divisional playoff Friday.
- 0:42Speaker 1: Jeff Legwald is brought to you by our friends at
- 0:45Speaker 1: the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers ibe W Local sixty eight.
- 0:49Speaker 1: You start with a job, you end with a career. Uh, Jeff,
- 0:53Speaker 1: we got a good old fashioned coach fire in today.
- 0:56Speaker 1: Ben Kott weeka out. How come? What's going on there?
- 1:01Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 1:02Speaker 3: I guess the block field goal was a little bigger
- 1:05Speaker 3: deal than they let on maybe, But now I think
- 1:07Speaker 3: a lot of this is when he came to the Broncos,
- 1:11Speaker 3: you know, he was it was kind of a west
- 1:13Speaker 3: Off with you know, package deal. You know. West Off
- 1:19Speaker 3: would be the sort of overseer, the supervisor, and and
- 1:24Speaker 3: Ben would handle the day to day at practice and
- 1:26Speaker 3: those types of things. So I think once Mike Westoff
- 1:30Speaker 3: retired this year because of health, I think that really
- 1:33Speaker 3: put him in a in a shaky spot no matter
- 1:35Speaker 3: what happened. Yeah, I mean, they did lead the league
- 1:38Speaker 3: in punt returns. You know, Marvin Mims is an all pro.
- 1:42Speaker 3: Will Nuts ties the franchise record for field goals. So
- 1:45Speaker 3: they had a lot of good stuff happened on special teams.
- 1:49Speaker 3: But they also lost two games where they had enormous
- 1:54Speaker 3: special teams gaffes. And I think it all was in
- 1:57Speaker 3: the sort of in the stew and I'm not sure,
- 2:01Speaker 3: you know, I didn't. I didn't think after being over
- 2:03Speaker 3: there this week there would be that many staff changes,
- 2:06Speaker 3: that maybe there would be one or two, But that
- 2:09Speaker 3: was that was one that was mentioned to me because
- 2:11Speaker 3: a west Off's departure, that they might just decide to
- 2:15Speaker 3: move on all right.
- 2:16Speaker 4: So I'm curious because I saw an article praising Chris
- 2:19Speaker 4: Banjo earlier in the week. Do you think it's for Rizzy,
- 2:22Speaker 4: the old special teams coach, or do they want to
- 2:24Speaker 4: hold on to Banjo.
- 2:26Speaker 3: I think they like Chris Banjo to stay. I mean,
- 2:29Speaker 3: he's Sean Payton's the guy that gave him a start
- 2:32Speaker 3: in coaching, you know it, but it maybe he's an
- 2:36Speaker 3: assistant to the new to the new arrival, you know,
- 2:40Speaker 3: whoever that is, or you know, maybe they choose to
- 2:42Speaker 3: promote him. But I think they'll they'll wait and see
- 2:45Speaker 3: who who they think they can get as they move forward.
- 2:48Speaker 1: Here talking to Jeff Legwald here on a Friday afternoon. Leggie,
- 2:53Speaker 1: you you gave an in depth breakdown this week of
- 2:56Speaker 1: the season and some of the issues plaguing this team
- 3:00Speaker 1: on ESPN dot com. And indeed, the running game was
- 3:04Speaker 1: a part of it. You pointed out by the way
- 3:07Speaker 1: leading rusher Davonte Williams five hundred and thirteen yards. I
- 3:10Speaker 1: looked that up forty second in the NFL this season,
- 3:17Speaker 1: in a year in which bow Knicks was sixth in
- 3:19Speaker 1: pass attempts. We saw the offense improved greatly, and yet
- 3:23Speaker 1: the running back thing, it's sticking out like a sore thumb.
- 3:28Speaker 1: Is it possible we could see Denver go running back
- 3:31Speaker 1: in the first round of the draft?
- 3:33Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, they I'm not sure they placed that
- 3:37Speaker 3: kind of value, but maybe if they see that player,
- 3:40Speaker 3: you know, he he desperately wants his you know, the
- 3:43Speaker 3: joker that that role in his offense, and he I
- 3:47Speaker 3: think Wednesday was sort of the first time he admitted
- 3:51Speaker 3: publicly of how much he didn't believe he had one here,
- 3:56Speaker 3: you know, and he said something like, you don't know
- 3:58Speaker 3: until you don't have one, And that's really the first
- 4:01Speaker 3: time he's sort of let that out of the bag,
- 4:04Speaker 3: as it were. So I think they will be willing.
- 4:07Speaker 3: I mean, they showed with bow Nicks they're willing to
- 4:09Speaker 3: use high first round draft capital if they really want
- 4:13Speaker 3: the player, no matter where he's graded. So I think
- 4:16Speaker 3: certainly running back in tight end or in that early
- 4:21Speaker 3: cluster of picks, and I think either or both players
- 4:25Speaker 3: will will have all of those Joker past receiving running
- 4:30Speaker 3: ability traits that he wants.
- 4:32Speaker 4: Jeff, you did do the deep dive. I know you
- 4:36Speaker 4: and I chatted about it this week. Look the Broncos
- 4:39Speaker 4: offense basically feasts it and really, when you go back
- 4:42Speaker 4: and look, the defense had a little that going on too.
- 4:44Speaker 4: They feasted against the weaker teams. They did not so
- 4:47Speaker 4: well against the top of the conference.
- 4:49Speaker 3: I know.
- 4:50Speaker 4: Yeah, Sean about you know the devil and the details
- 4:52Speaker 4: and all that stuff. How close are you to meeting
- 4:55Speaker 4: to getting to the top after doing your deep dive
- 4:58Speaker 4: after looking at the number and watching the tape, what's
- 5:01Speaker 4: the one thing they got to do or maybe what
- 5:03Speaker 4: has to improve when they face these top teams so
- 5:06Speaker 4: that this looks a little bit different next year.
- 5:10Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think the three and outs stick out.
- 5:13Speaker 3: You know, only the New York Giants and Carolina Panthers
- 5:18Speaker 3: had more three and outs than the Broncos. They were
- 5:21Speaker 3: such an all or nothing offense. You know, the red
- 5:24Speaker 3: zone numbers were really good for the year. I think
- 5:26Speaker 3: the I think they were top seven, So that tells
- 5:30Speaker 3: you once they get in the inside the twenty, they're
- 5:33Speaker 3: scoring touchdowns. But those three and outs are very glaring
- 5:37Speaker 3: because you're giving good teams and the best quarterbacks in
- 5:41Speaker 3: the league more possessions, and the more opportunity you give
- 5:45Speaker 3: them to to beat you, the more often they will
- 5:48Speaker 3: beat you. And I think especially in the AFC, I mean,
- 5:51Speaker 3: look what you're up against, it's it's almost like you're
- 5:54Speaker 3: playing for two playoff spots if you're lucky out of
- 5:56Speaker 3: the seven just because of the quarterback ross or in
- 6:00Speaker 3: the AFC right now, so if you if you can't
- 6:03Speaker 3: stay on the field and and sort of limit the damage,
- 6:07Speaker 3: those those guys can do against your defense, I think
- 6:10Speaker 3: you're gonna have a hard time competing. And you know, look,
- 6:14Speaker 3: you know they're zero to six against the the quarterback
- 6:17Speaker 3: elite they face this year, and until they can find
- 6:21Speaker 3: a way on either side of the ball to repair that,
- 6:25Speaker 3: I think there will be a lot of battles for
- 6:27Speaker 3: the wild card spot and it'll be difficult to get
- 6:31Speaker 3: past that.
- 6:32Speaker 1: Talking to Jeff Lagwald here on a Friday afternoon divisional
- 6:35Speaker 1: weekend games, we'll get to those coming up here in
- 6:38Speaker 1: just a moment, Jeff. Amongst the Broncos own free agents,
- 6:41Speaker 1: who should they prioritize to bring back?
- 6:45Speaker 3: You know, it's just a matter of you know, I
- 6:48Speaker 3: guess I lumped Nick Bonito in there, even though he's
- 6:51Speaker 3: not really a free agent this year. But I think
- 6:54Speaker 3: this is where you start planning on are you gonna
- 6:56Speaker 3: do one of those late summer August deals to lock
- 7:03Speaker 3: him up like they did with Certain they did with
- 7:05Speaker 3: Quinn Minors. You know, they've already set precedent there and
- 7:08Speaker 3: I think they will try. But the group they have,
- 7:12Speaker 3: you know, I don't know that you know where they
- 7:15Speaker 3: sit on Chavante Williams bring him back at a certain
- 7:18Speaker 3: price or you know they're going to purge the whole
- 7:20Speaker 3: room and you know, rebuild from the ground up. He
- 7:24Speaker 3: was awful, a lot of snaps on third down, you know,
- 7:27Speaker 3: at the season's end. So I think at the right
- 7:30Speaker 3: price they look at him. But I think DJ Jones
- 7:32Speaker 3: is something they got to look at. He played a
- 7:34Speaker 3: lot of snaps and was effective in all of those
- 7:38Speaker 3: games and a big part of the you know, their
- 7:41Speaker 3: front Now he lost snap count when Malcolm Roach arrived.
- 7:45Speaker 3: But other than that, you know, I think that's another
- 7:48Speaker 3: guy at the right price they would bring back. But
- 7:51Speaker 3: I think Benito is really the one on the front burner,
- 7:56Speaker 3: even though he's not a twenty twenty five free agent.
- 8:00Speaker 4: Do you think, listening to George Payton the other day,
- 8:03Speaker 4: he was the one that dove in on the off
- 8:05Speaker 4: season plans.
- 8:06Speaker 3: I don't think.
- 8:06Speaker 4: I don't remember Sean getting too deeply involved in that.
- 8:09Speaker 4: Do you think they're big spenders or do you think
- 8:11Speaker 4: they stick with what I thought, you know, Peyton laid
- 8:14Speaker 4: out there. Let's be smart like a year ago.
- 8:18Speaker 3: Well, I think Andy, when the owner uses the word measured,
- 8:21Speaker 3: I think that tells you where they're going. And because
- 8:23Speaker 3: he's got the checkbook, so maybe they talking out of it.
- 8:28Speaker 3: You know, people in the league think Sean Payton wants
- 8:32Speaker 3: to take a swipe at a receiver, a big financial one.
- 8:35Speaker 3: You know, if that's t Higgins or not, we'll see.
- 8:38Speaker 2: Uh.
- 8:39Speaker 3: But Greg Penner, the owner, did use the word measured,
- 8:44Speaker 3: and he did sort of go on and on about
- 8:47Speaker 3: how effective that was this year, that approach, you know,
- 8:53Speaker 3: rather than the sort of cannonball they did into the
- 8:57Speaker 3: free agency the first year Peyton was here. So uh,
- 9:01Speaker 3: that's my guide post till I see something different because
- 9:04Speaker 3: the owner gets to say how much money they're gonna spend.
- 9:07Speaker 3: And again he did use the word measured.
- 9:10Speaker 1: Along those lines. Besides just the will be measured thing
- 9:14Speaker 1: that George Peyton said, and Sean Payton continuing to confess
- 9:19Speaker 1: his lifelong hatred of Russell Wilson, besides all of that,
- 9:23Speaker 1: what was there anything else that was said that really
- 9:26Speaker 1: made your antenna, your Jeff Legwalld antenna go up.
- 9:31Speaker 3: I think the measured party and when Great Tenner, you know,
- 9:34Speaker 3: gms always say that and head coaches say we're gonna
- 9:37Speaker 3: be careful and all, but the owner said it, and
- 9:39Speaker 3: I always think that's always worth noting. I also thought,
- 9:45Speaker 3: in his own way, Penner made it clear. You know,
- 9:49Speaker 3: he used the phrase hold them accountable, and you know,
- 9:53Speaker 3: the expectation is to win the division next year. He didn't.
- 9:58Speaker 3: He didn't really give him much room to wiggle around
- 10:01Speaker 3: in all this, and I think that's frankly, you know,
- 10:05Speaker 3: I don't know this, but I think that's his way
- 10:07Speaker 3: of saying, Hey, i'm I'm paying an awful lot of
- 10:11Speaker 3: people here at the top of the market, including the
- 10:13Speaker 3: head coach, and this is what I'd like for that expenditure.
- 10:18Speaker 3: And I thought that was worth noting because he did
- 10:20Speaker 3: it a few times. He you know, it was very
- 10:23Speaker 3: mild mannered, but he made it clear that, you know,
- 10:27Speaker 3: wild card losses, you know, making it back to the
- 10:30Speaker 3: playoffs was fun, but he's not real interested in wild
- 10:33Speaker 3: card losses.
- 10:34Speaker 4: What did you make of the uniform comment that the
- 10:37Speaker 4: throwbacks are well received? You know, all of Twitter decides
- 10:41Speaker 4: to pine for the days of the Broncos original uniform.
- 10:47Speaker 4: You think are we gonna have any more uniform shakeups
- 10:50Speaker 4: this offseason or do you think they're just gonna go?
- 10:52Speaker 4: And by the way, do you have any guess which
- 10:53Speaker 4: one he didn't care for because to me, it would
- 10:55Speaker 4: have been one Sunday.
- 10:56Speaker 3: But now it was the blue combo, okay, orange combo
- 11:01Speaker 3: that nobody liked. But he even said, I don't think
- 11:05Speaker 3: we'll be using that one again. So I think that
- 11:07Speaker 3: puts that on the shelf. You know that the Throwbacks,
- 11:11Speaker 3: I mean they spent an awful lot of money and
- 11:14Speaker 3: went through the whole, enormously long process the league has
- 11:18Speaker 3: for switching uniforms, and they would have to go through
- 11:23Speaker 3: it again and make it the primary uniform. It would
- 11:25Speaker 3: have to be designated. There's a whole process they'd have
- 11:28Speaker 3: to go through. It's not that they can just decide, okay,
- 11:32Speaker 3: this is the primary uniform, because you know, Nike pays
- 11:36Speaker 3: a lot of money to outfit the league, so that
- 11:40Speaker 3: they couldn't just do that on their own. It would
- 11:42Speaker 3: They would have to go through a whole process to
- 11:44Speaker 3: do it. And I don't get the sense. I get
- 11:46Speaker 3: the sense they want the Throwbacks to be sort of
- 11:48Speaker 3: special and in their own little area.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Jeff Legwold, everybody joins us on a Friday afternoon. All right, Jeff,
- 11:54Speaker 1: let's get into the matchups tomorrow. First game, two thirty
- 11:59Speaker 1: ESPN Fair Houston at Kansas City. The Chiefs injury report
- 12:04Speaker 1: this week is hilarious. Other than Mkole Hartman, everybody is
- 12:09Speaker 1: healthy on that team. The idea of a team essentially
- 12:15Speaker 1: treading water for eighteen weeks, and we should mention going
- 12:19Speaker 1: fifteen to two while treading that water and then going
- 12:23Speaker 1: into the postseason healthier than they have ever been. The
- 12:29Speaker 1: Chief's machine and the way that they're able to execute this.
- 12:34Speaker 1: We throw around the term coaching genius a lot, but
- 12:36Speaker 1: is Andy Reid really a coaching genius?
- 12:39Speaker 3: Well, I think he's learned what the coaches of the
- 12:42Speaker 3: greatest teams I've seen always learn. How much energy do
- 12:46Speaker 3: you have to expend to get to the end of
- 12:49Speaker 3: the season and still have enough to compete for the
- 12:51Speaker 3: biggest prize. So the Patriots made a living of it.
- 12:56Speaker 3: I think there were at least ten seasons in Brady's
- 12:58Speaker 3: career where we all talked about it. They didn't throw
- 13:02Speaker 3: the deep ball and they didn't look particularly good, and
- 13:04Speaker 3: or they didn't do this, or they didn't do that,
- 13:06Speaker 3: and then all they would do is show up and
- 13:08Speaker 3: win the trophy. And I think that's where the Chiefs
- 13:11Speaker 3: are at now in this you know, franchise arc is
- 13:14Speaker 3: they know exactly how much energy they need to And
- 13:18Speaker 3: for all the angst people had this year, you know,
- 13:22Speaker 3: until they benched everybody, they only lost one game. And
- 13:25Speaker 3: I just you know, I continually say, you know, one
- 13:29Speaker 3: score win or five score win, Who cares? You know?
- 13:33Speaker 3: We we conveniently forget here in twenty fifteen. I believe
- 13:38Speaker 3: nine of the broncos twelve wins that year were one
- 13:41Speaker 3: score wins, and we don't talk about how ugly that
- 13:45Speaker 3: was of a run to a Super Bowl. So I
- 13:48Speaker 3: think the standard we hold the Chiefs to is a
- 13:50Speaker 3: little weird. All they did was win, and I think
- 13:53Speaker 3: they're going to be the toughest out in the playoff
- 13:56Speaker 3: field because they're the ones who know what it takes
- 13:59Speaker 3: to get all all the way through.
- 14:01Speaker 1: Tomorrow night, six o'clock Manders Lions in Detroit, it is
- 14:05Speaker 1: Dan Campbell and Detroit's first crack as the one seed.
- 14:09Speaker 1: Both Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn basically spent a week
- 14:12Speaker 1: doing every Zoom interview in the world. Fifty five and
- 14:18Speaker 1: a half is the total this game is. Really you
- 14:21Speaker 1: should anticipate an absurd amount of offense in this game. Washington
- 14:25Speaker 1: can't stop the run to save their life, and that's
- 14:27Speaker 1: what Detroit does better than anything else. But Leggy, how
- 14:30Speaker 1: do you think the Lions are going to deal with
- 14:33Speaker 1: having the one seed and sort of their first shot
- 14:36Speaker 1: as the hunted so to speak.
- 14:38Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that the guy who's really in the
- 14:41Speaker 3: in the microscope is GoF you know, it's he's got
- 14:45Speaker 3: to pull this team through this part of it. You
- 14:48Speaker 3: know that you're at a place where the franchise hasn't
- 14:52Speaker 3: been for you know, in such a long time, and
- 14:55Speaker 3: you know, having never been you know, they're one of
- 14:57Speaker 3: the teams that's never been to a super Bowl. You're
- 14:59Speaker 3: you know, you're you're doing is being surrounded by all that.
- 15:03Speaker 3: I think it's really important for him to have like
- 15:06Speaker 3: the game of his career almost to pull these guys
- 15:10Speaker 3: through because the you know, Washington's got a rookie quarterback
- 15:14Speaker 3: and a bunch of guys who know no one thinks
- 15:17Speaker 3: they're going to win, and that's always the you know,
- 15:20Speaker 3: the puncher's chance in the playoffs. All right, what do you.
- 15:23Speaker 4: Think of that Lamar Jackson Josh Allen matchup? How about
- 15:26Speaker 4: for the they were talking all week, well when they
- 15:28Speaker 4: quit talking about Prime to the Cowboys and took Thursday
- 15:30Speaker 4: and Friday to preview playoff games, which I'm sure Jerry loved.
- 15:34Speaker 4: They were talking about the quarterback that loses this game
- 15:38Speaker 4: this weekend.
- 15:40Speaker 3: That could be tough.
- 15:41Speaker 4: Okay, you know they're both trying to get to the
- 15:43Speaker 4: super Bowl for the first time.
- 15:45Speaker 3: How do you think that one goes well? If the
- 15:48Speaker 3: weather depends, if the weather lets anybody throw the ball, Yeah,
- 15:51Speaker 3: and there's a good chance it won't. I mean, we
- 15:55Speaker 3: we've seen what a windy game looks like there. I mean,
- 15:58Speaker 3: I couple of years are, a few years ago. I remember,
- 16:01Speaker 3: you know, the Broncos played there early in the season
- 16:04Speaker 3: and the ball was going backward when the quarterbacks were
- 16:06Speaker 3: trying to warm up. So if they get that kind
- 16:10Speaker 3: of day and the cold, you know, it's just going
- 16:12Speaker 3: to be the team who runs the best. And Buffalo's
- 16:16Speaker 3: had a much You wouldn't know it from the Bronco game,
- 16:19Speaker 3: I know, but the Buffaloes had a much harder time
- 16:21Speaker 3: defending the run than the Ravens have. And if they
- 16:25Speaker 3: can't throw the ball, that could really be the difference
- 16:28Speaker 3: in this one.
- 16:28Speaker 1: Yeah, what's so interesting to me about this legy is
- 16:31Speaker 1: like the Broncos came into it, gave Andy the stat
- 16:35Speaker 1: in the first hour. Broncos were number one in defensive
- 16:37Speaker 1: success rate against the run this season, and yet Buffalo
- 16:41Speaker 1: ran all over them. Well, Baltimore is number two on
- 16:45Speaker 1: that list, And it's like, if James Cooking Company can
- 16:48Speaker 1: recreate what they did against Denver at home on their
- 16:52Speaker 1: own field, then I think we're talking about an absolute
- 16:55Speaker 1: slug fest that is going to go down to the
- 16:58Speaker 1: closing seconds of the game. But if Baltimore's defense really
- 17:02Speaker 1: shows up and does what you think they're capable of doing,
- 17:05Speaker 1: then that's where you would lean and certainly give the
- 17:08Speaker 1: edge to Lamar and the Ravens to get it to
- 17:10Speaker 1: get past this one.
- 17:12Speaker 3: Yeah, especially if if the weather prevents anybody from throwing.
- 17:16Speaker 3: They both they both have both quarterbacks have elite arm strength,
- 17:21Speaker 3: so it will take a horrible weather day for either
- 17:25Speaker 3: team not to throw. But if you can't, uh, I
- 17:29Speaker 3: think Baltimore has just built better on both sides of
- 17:32Speaker 3: the ball for that kind of day.
- 17:34Speaker 1: Yeah, this is gonna be a good one man coming
- 17:36Speaker 1: up right here?
- 17:36Speaker 4: Yeah, real quick, Jeff, You know Nate and I we
- 17:40Speaker 4: have people everywhere Okay, we've got you, but we got
- 17:43Speaker 4: we got an oil baron.
- 17:44Speaker 3: Turns out we got a cow guy.
- 17:46Speaker 1: We get a cow guy. All right, mister guy from.
- 17:49Speaker 3: The era of the bell cow back.
- 17:51Speaker 4: My buddy Jeremy from a dairy farm in Wisconsin told us,
- 17:55Speaker 4: you know you put the bell on.
- 17:56Speaker 1: You know which col you put the bell on.
- 17:58Speaker 3: You know you put the bell on the.
- 18:00Speaker 5: Cow you don't trust, the one you're worried most about
- 18:03Speaker 5: sneaking up on you and give you a good kick
- 18:05Speaker 5: right in the solar plexus. Where the hell did bell
- 18:08Speaker 5: cow back come from? It doesn't from a cow from
- 18:11Speaker 5: our cow guy.
- 18:12Speaker 3: That doesn't sound like a real compliment.
- 18:14Speaker 5: I don't think Ashton Genty wants to be the one
- 18:17Speaker 5: I got to keep an eye on all of a sudden,
- 18:19Speaker 5: what do we do in cam Scaboo doesn't want to
- 18:21Speaker 5: be known that, hey, you got your eye on me
- 18:23Speaker 5: in the locker room.
- 18:25Speaker 3: Because you think I'm up to something. That's why I've
- 18:28Speaker 3: never used it. That's the cow you don't give the
- 18:30Speaker 3: ball to. Well, there you go.
- 18:34Speaker 4: I want you to ask Ashton Genty if he knows
- 18:37Speaker 4: what a bell cow is, and then educate him and
- 18:40Speaker 4: see if he wants to be called a bell cow
- 18:41Speaker 4: back at the combine.
- 18:43Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I'll do that right before I turned in
- 18:46Speaker 3: my retirement paper. It'll be a two fer.
- 18:52Speaker 5: Where did this come from, Leggy? Who started bell cow back?
- 18:57Speaker 3: It's probably you know, you know, the sportswriter types. You know,
- 19:00Speaker 3: some we all, you know, somebody thought it was funny
- 19:02Speaker 3: and the just it just kind of stuck.
- 19:04Speaker 1: Everybody adopted it and stuck with it forever. By the way, Leggy, Uh,
- 19:08Speaker 1: Rams and Eagles can la get out to a to
- 19:11Speaker 1: a good enough start to be able to put Philly
- 19:13Speaker 1: behind the eight ball.
- 19:15Speaker 3: Well, the last time they played, the Eagles ran for
- 19:19Speaker 3: three hundred. Yeah, so I think I think that's your issue. Yeah,
- 19:22Speaker 3: you know, and I think you know, look, the Rams
- 19:25Speaker 3: have dealt with more than any of the these other
- 19:27Speaker 3: teams have in so many ways. I Mean, they got
- 19:31Speaker 3: people working for the franchise, worried about where they're going
- 19:34Speaker 3: to live, you know, and what happened to their house, uh,
- 19:37Speaker 3: and all of those things. So on that level, you know,
- 19:41Speaker 3: what they've already done is amazing. But this is a
- 19:44Speaker 3: big ask on the football side of it, and uh,
- 19:48Speaker 3: they'll need the Eagles to just have a have a
- 19:51Speaker 3: hefty turnover day, you know, fumbles, ball on the ground, whatever.
- 19:56Speaker 3: But the last time they played the Eagles were they
- 20:00Speaker 3: were unstoppable. And what Barkley run for two point fifty
- 20:03Speaker 3: five in that game, I mean, that's unbelievable.
- 20:06Speaker 1: Jeff Legweld. Everybody ESPN follow all of his offseason coverage
