- 0:20[SPEAKER_02]: appreciate everybody coming in.
- 0:23[SPEAKER_02]: It is Tuesday evening 9th of December.
- 0:25[SPEAKER_02]: Time for an episode of building the Broncos.
- 0:27[SPEAKER_02]: I am Nick Kendall joined by Carl Dumbler.
- 0:29[SPEAKER_02]: Carl, it's good to see you.
- 0:31[SPEAKER_02]: I just mean, I want to take a second.
- 0:33[SPEAKER_02]: Just real quick, to let it breathe.
- 0:35[SPEAKER_02]: Broncos of 110 in a row, winners of 11 in a row at home, almost lunch the AFC West last night.
- 0:41[SPEAKER_02]: The chiefs are officially out of AFC West
- 0:47[SPEAKER_02]: Damn it feels good to be a Bronco fan right now.
- 0:49[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see what the rest of the season has next four games are tough playoffs.
- 0:52[SPEAKER_02]: Who the heck knows what goes on on the AFC this year, but Right now I'm pretty typically I'm pretty you know, I feel like I'm more matter of fact and know analytically driven and not too high not too low, but this is a rare place to be right now for the Broncos and it is a
- 1:09[SPEAKER_02]: unbelievable turnaround from where this team was at just two or three years ago.
- 1:14[SPEAKER_02]: So I just want to take a second to like, let it marinate like, wow, how incredible this has been.
- 1:20[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the last time I remember, I mean, the 2015 season was exciting.
- 1:27[SPEAKER_01]: But that whole time I was just like, it was more I was on edge because I'm going, I know
- 1:39[SPEAKER_01]: And so I just, I was more stressed that season.
- 1:42[SPEAKER_01]: This one, like I expected good things for the Broncos, I didn't expect 11 and 2 and 10 straight wins.
- 1:50[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm trying to just sit back, appreciate it, and love that we have a team that's winning multiple ways, too.
- 1:58[SPEAKER_01]: You know, deep in Seismen, the best, the last couple games, often stepped up and started really putting some games together.
- 2:06[SPEAKER_01]: You know, deepens is obviously done well.
- 2:07[SPEAKER_01]: Special teams are starting to come around.
- 2:09[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like we're, yeah, we're starting to peak at the right time as a team.
- 2:15[SPEAKER_01]: And it just, like I said, it's just a time to soak it in, appreciate it.
- 2:20[SPEAKER_01]: And like I said, even more than not even more than that.
- 2:23[SPEAKER_01]: A great side note is the chiefs being down that maybe their dynasty is heading in the wrong direction.
- 2:29[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's talking to chiefs fan earlier today.
- 2:32[SPEAKER_01]: And I said, the problem is you look at your last three drafts.
- 2:35[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I haven't gotten a whole lot from them.
- 2:37[SPEAKER_01]: Exager were these kind of a one trick pony.
- 2:42[SPEAKER_01]: You don't have, you look at the rest of those picks.
- 2:45[SPEAKER_01]: There's just not a whole lot there.
- 2:46[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe this last draft, it'll turn into a good one with Josh Simmons and lot as well.
- 2:53[SPEAKER_01]: He was playing okay before he got hurt.
- 2:56[SPEAKER_01]: But right now, when that's supposed to be kind of the new incoming talent, I'm not seeing it yet.
- 3:03[SPEAKER_01]: And for the Broncos, it's kind of the opposite where you're watching this rookie class take over.
- 3:08[SPEAKER_01]: There's starting to become big time playmakers every single week.
- 3:13[SPEAKER_01]: You're looking at the second and third year guys who are just lighten things up as well for this team.
- 3:18[SPEAKER_01]: And then you've got your star players that you've got signed long term.
- 3:22[SPEAKER_01]: You don't have to worry about losing any of them really.
- 3:25[SPEAKER_01]: And so it's not only that we've got this 10 game win streak.
- 3:29[SPEAKER_01]: It's, hey, this team has some real staying power.
- 3:32[SPEAKER_01]: the true foundation of this team are young, other than like Garrett Bulls.
- 3:40[SPEAKER_01]: Offensive line, not that young, but yeah.
- 3:41[SPEAKER_01]: Right, yeah, I'm good at it.
- 3:43[SPEAKER_01]: Go on, go on.
- 3:43[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
- 3:43[SPEAKER_01]: But offensive line, sometimes you don't have to have young guys.
- 3:47[SPEAKER_01]: Like guys, they're still playing great when they're 34, 35, 36 years old and you're trusting that they can hold up unless they get hurt, of course, but no, it is.
- 3:57[SPEAKER_01]: It's a great time to be a Bronco fan.
- 4:03[SPEAKER_01]: I might talk about that a little bit more later, but still, they are finding ways to win.
- 4:08[SPEAKER_01]: They are, they're believing in each other.
- 4:11[SPEAKER_01]: They're having fun and it just, it makes it more fun for me.
- 4:17[SPEAKER_01]: Getting to watch these games with my kids.
- 4:21[SPEAKER_01]: When they were going like six and eleven or six and ten and having my kids sit out on
- 4:33[SPEAKER_01]: You know, a hard that is to explain to your kid, like, this is how it goes sometimes.
- 4:37[SPEAKER_01]: Sometimes your team is bad.
- 4:39[SPEAKER_01]: This isn't fun to watch dad.
- 4:41[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you're right.
- 4:41[SPEAKER_01]: It isn't.
- 4:43[SPEAKER_01]: And so now to sit next to him and they're like, Look at the brockos.
- 4:45[SPEAKER_01]: Look what they're doing.
- 4:47[SPEAKER_01]: And, and they've even, since my wife and I got to go to the Giants game, they've had like multiple times now where they're going to show us the game that you and Mom went to.
- 4:56[SPEAKER_01]: And so we'll sit and watch the game.
- 4:58[SPEAKER_01]: Well, we'll start it in the fourth quarter.
- 5:00[SPEAKER_01]: I should say that.
- 5:02[SPEAKER_01]: We don't usually watch the first three quarters and how that went.
- 5:04[SPEAKER_01]: We don't need to care about that.
- 5:06[SPEAKER_01]: But no, it is.
- 5:07[SPEAKER_01]: It's just a great time.
- 5:08[SPEAKER_01]: I hope everybody else is appreciating it and just enjoying that we haven't lost in two and a half months.
- 5:16[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 5:17[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, no, it's been a really incredible run.
- 5:21[SPEAKER_02]: And I just wanted to shout out to everybody in the chat.
- 5:23[SPEAKER_02]: It's been a long time coming for us, not like some fans.
- 5:27[SPEAKER_02]: I know, but like 10 years for covering this team and you'll keep in the energy high, that's great.
- 5:32[SPEAKER_02]: You know, I've covered it on the Falcons as well.
- 5:35[SPEAKER_02]: So I've seen true suffering, but it's...
- 5:38[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, well, we were in the Russell Wilson trade and clowned around a lot for a bit.
- 5:42[SPEAKER_02]: So it's it's good to be here and on the other side.
- 5:44[SPEAKER_02]: Let's get to some questions here is everybody's coming and make sure you click the thumbs up on the way and everything like that.
- 5:50[SPEAKER_02]: We got string guy coming in and say, hi, I was wondering how Bonix compares to Jordan love statistically what you're on has been the better quarterback the season and picking Nick, so the fourth quarter when he drive Denver wins by three.
- 6:01[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I've go next has been playing really good football the last four weeks three games.
- 6:07[SPEAKER_02]: but Jordan love his arguably been the best quarterback in football the last four games.
- 6:12[SPEAKER_02]: He's been pushing the ball vertically.
- 6:14[SPEAKER_02]: The bears did kind of slow things down in the third fourth quarter for them, but he has been killing man coverage.
- 6:22[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if you guys checked to the Vegas odds, but he's rocketed up the MVP race as well.
- 6:27[SPEAKER_02]: I think he's number three in Vegas MVP odds right now.
- 6:30[SPEAKER_02]: So I mean, anywhere you look, Jordan love has been
- 6:33[SPEAKER_02]: Really, really good.
- 6:35[SPEAKER_02]: He's number one in EPA per play over the last four weeks of the season over all in the season.
- 6:41[SPEAKER_02]: He's number one in EPA per play.
- 6:42[SPEAKER_02]: Also, so it's obviously all stats and football system stats to a certain extent.
- 6:47[SPEAKER_02]: You can't truly isolate a variable, but.
- 6:49[SPEAKER_02]: That's without like a true number one receiver.
- 6:51[SPEAKER_02]: He's doing it with that Tucker craft.
- 6:52[SPEAKER_02]: Offensive wine is head injuries.
- 6:54[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, love right now is one of the best five quarterbacks in football.
- 6:58[SPEAKER_02]: And Bonax is probably top 15.
- 7:00[SPEAKER_02]: He's been playing top 10 the last four weeks, but that's three games.
- 7:04[SPEAKER_02]: So love is climbing great.
- 7:06[SPEAKER_02]: It's also just a little fun.
- 7:07[SPEAKER_02]: Tung and Cheek is Toyota Thon, where he's unbelievable every year.
- 7:11[SPEAKER_02]: But that's love's probably, there was a redraft of all the quarterbacks in the NFC.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_02]: He'd be the first second or third off the board.
- 7:22[SPEAKER_02]: I believe that pretty empathically.
- 7:24[SPEAKER_02]: Stafford for maybe one season depends what you think about Caleb Williams.
- 7:26[SPEAKER_02]: I'm Jaden Dana's.
- 7:27[SPEAKER_02]: That's hard at the injuries.
- 7:28[SPEAKER_02]: But love is, love is right there.
- 7:29[SPEAKER_02]: He's only like 26.
- 7:31[SPEAKER_02]: Silla's well.
- 7:31[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, he's, yeah, violent upman.
- 7:34[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe Dak, growing in there as well.
- 7:36[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that is in there as well.
- 7:37[SPEAKER_02]: He's a little bit older.
- 7:39[SPEAKER_02]: Jack, you're right.
- 7:40[SPEAKER_02]: I cannot hate Jack Prescott.
- 7:42[SPEAKER_02]: He's awesome.
- 7:43[SPEAKER_02]: If the couple is running good or they're to start with season, he'd be in the MVP conversation too.
- 7:47[SPEAKER_02]: And then there's already beaten some MVP candidates this season are great quarterback.
- 7:50[SPEAKER_02]: So not afraid of them by any means, but like call it as it is.
- 7:53[SPEAKER_02]: He's having a great season outside of the one bad game versus the Eagles, which was just, you know, ugly all around.
- 8:02[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 8:02[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, there are some stats the point two to
- 8:07[SPEAKER_01]: Total touchdowns, he actually has more total touchdowns than Jordan love so far this year.
- 8:11[SPEAKER_01]: I think Nick says 23, Jordan love S 22, when he throw in the rushing touchdowns as well.
- 8:17[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's not a great stat to determine who's the better quarterback because Jordan loves done a better job protecting the football.
- 8:26[SPEAKER_01]: but Bonax offers that little bit of extra juice because of his ability to run.
- 8:31[SPEAKER_01]: And so you got to factor that in.
- 8:33[SPEAKER_01]: And like I said, Nick's been playing much better.
- 8:36[SPEAKER_01]: And he's looking more like what we're hoping he would look like this year.
- 8:40[SPEAKER_01]: You know, we talked about beginning the year.
- 8:42[SPEAKER_01]: If the Broncos can get top 10 quarterback play from Bonax, you're probably a Super Bowl contender.
- 8:46[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 8:47[SPEAKER_01]: If he's bottom 10, you're probably fighting for the playoffs.
- 8:51[SPEAKER_01]: Now thankfully, when he was playing bottom 10 early in the season,
- 8:55[SPEAKER_01]: The defense was able to cover it up and be fine.
- 8:58[SPEAKER_01]: Now that the defense is maybe taken a little bit step back, hoping they can get some things figured out.
- 9:03[SPEAKER_01]: It looks like it's more communication issues than it is talent issue.
- 9:07[SPEAKER_01]: I would say, I mean, that there's a little bit of a talent linebacker issue there, but there's just so many plays that against the Raiders, especially, they look so at a position.
- 9:18[SPEAKER_01]: Safety is not in the right spot, corners expecting any help.
- 9:22[SPEAKER_01]: You know, defensive line, just not getting quite the pressure that they were earlier in the season, you know, those kind of things and miss tackles.
- 9:29[SPEAKER_01]: That was the other big thing for the defense that we haven't seen all year.
- 9:33[SPEAKER_01]: Last couple games we've seen a couple tackles that they usually make that that led to big plays for the other team.
- 9:40[SPEAKER_01]: So, but like I said, offensive start and step up.
- 9:42[SPEAKER_01]: They're looking a little bit more dangerous bone next looking like he just feels a lot more comfortable and what he's doing and what he's seeing on the field.
- 9:51[SPEAKER_01]: And so it's going to be a fun game.
- 9:53[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it really is.
- 9:54[SPEAKER_01]: That you look at the stats of these two teams.
- 9:58[SPEAKER_01]: And they are very close, offensively defensively like that there's just not much separating them.
- 10:03[SPEAKER_01]: And so it was a little shocked.
- 10:05[SPEAKER_01]: Seeing, I guess maybe I shouldn't be shocked.
- 10:07[SPEAKER_01]: Vegas putting green bay as the favorites in this one on the road.
- 10:11[SPEAKER_01]: Two and a half, I think last time.
- 10:13[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 10:14[SPEAKER_01]: And so usually home field gets you about three points.
- 10:18[SPEAKER_01]: So I get it, people still aren't believe in bone nicks.
- 10:22[SPEAKER_01]: People aren't quite trusting that the Broncos are a true 11 and 2 kind of team.
- 10:28[SPEAKER_01]: And defense is regressed a little bit, too.
- 10:30[SPEAKER_01]: Those four weeks, yeah.
- 10:32[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they have.
- 10:33[SPEAKER_01]: And so I think it'll be a really good one.
- 10:36[SPEAKER_01]: I think it'll be a close one.
- 10:37[SPEAKER_01]: Broccos haven't had any game get away from them.
- 10:41[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they've had a couple blowouts, but every game has been close, otherwise.
- 10:46[SPEAKER_01]: And I pretty much expect the same thing this week.
- 10:49[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I should be a great game.
- 10:51[SPEAKER_02]: They got, I think Tom Brady said in the game on Sunday that the packers are historic in terms of yards after catch, they're so good at tackling and they have so much speed on defense.
- 11:01[SPEAKER_02]: So, it should be a great game.
- 11:03[SPEAKER_02]: Really stressful, hopefully not too stressful you feel sad, depending on the outcome.
- 11:09[SPEAKER_02]: But you know, it is that time of year, but how it is a great, but it can be tough for some people.
- 11:13[SPEAKER_02]: So we do want to talk a little bit about mental health for a second also.
- 11:17[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Broncos Country amid such a wild season, we all know how much it's taken a toll on us mentally.
- 11:24[SPEAKER_01]: All seriousness though, taking care of your mental health shouldn't be harder than taking care of your physical health.
- 11:29[SPEAKER_01]: Think about it.
- 11:30[SPEAKER_01]: If you pull a muscle or suddenly your back starts aching, you go see a doctor.
- 11:34[SPEAKER_01]: But when it comes to finding the right therapist, suddenly it's frustrating.
- 11:37[SPEAKER_01]: You're dealing with long waiting list or you have to confront huge out-of-pocket costs.
- 11:42[SPEAKER_01]: Any one of these factors can stop people from getting the help they need.

- 12:55[SPEAKER_02]: We want to take care of you guys today.
- 12:57[SPEAKER_02]: Say hello to other people in the chat.
- 12:59[SPEAKER_02]: We got Chase coming in, talking about our main topic here today.
- 13:02[SPEAKER_02]: RJ Harvey, Kada, was about time that I mean rookie, but running back rookie and man, we need him.
- 13:10[SPEAKER_02]: Probably the, I mean, bonus is the most important
- 13:14[SPEAKER_02]: people who had not totally stepped up yet, which is like hard to say, because they know he has to have the touchdowns, but they've been so scheme oriented.
- 13:19[SPEAKER_02]: You just have not been able to depend on him.
- 13:21[SPEAKER_02]: This was a game where you'd have been around some.
- 13:24[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, excited to talk about that.
- 13:25[SPEAKER_02]: And he did look good.
- 13:26[SPEAKER_02]: We got James coming in.
- 13:27[SPEAKER_02]: We need to go to air it out like he did last season.
- 13:30[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, one of the crazy things about bonus to just kind of looking at the statistics because he was bottom.
- 13:35[SPEAKER_02]: eight, I think, in EPA, bottom three in success rate over the first 10 weeks of the season, week 11 through 14.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_02]: He's top, I think, five in EPA, 13, 12 to 13th in success rate, but he's really flipped his air yards.
- 13:49[SPEAKER_02]: So I know it's like, oh, a dinking duck, but in you know how many misses he had early in the season, but I believe he was top three in air yards out of the top 35 quarterbacks, the first 10 weeks of the season, and now he's bottom two.
- 13:59[SPEAKER_02]: The only quarterback who has less air yards per attempt is Aaron Rogers, right now, which, you know,
- 14:03[SPEAKER_02]: Dink and Dunk, I know, but you take what's there, right, and I do feel like he's doing a better job.
- 14:09[SPEAKER_02]: Now there's some points there where especially with some defenses coming up, you're going to have to grip it and rip it.
- 14:14[SPEAKER_02]: That's what she said.
- 14:15[SPEAKER_02]: But you know, fit it in some holes.
- 14:17[SPEAKER_02]: That's again what she said.
- 14:18[SPEAKER_02]: That the defense is out there.
- 14:19[SPEAKER_02]: But
- 14:20[SPEAKER_02]: right now he's projecting the football and taking what's there.
- 14:23[SPEAKER_02]: So I'll take it.
- 14:24[SPEAKER_02]: There probably is another level of aggressiveness that will have to see intellectual aggressiveness calculated, if you won't, but no, it's been good.
- 14:33[SPEAKER_02]: I don't necessarily need him to air it out.
- 14:36[SPEAKER_02]: I just need him to be efficient and make the right read.
- 14:39[SPEAKER_02]: Right now, if the offensive line, the way it is, was Sean Peyton dialing things up and with the defense, that's the big thing.
- 14:45[SPEAKER_02]: That's what I need.
- 14:47[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's
- 14:50[SPEAKER_01]: I like that he is being smart with a football.
- 14:53[SPEAKER_01]: He talks about it where in this last game, the Raiders were really leaving the underneath to top open.
- 14:58[SPEAKER_01]: And so like you look at his passing chart and you're like, oh, well, he's just thinking and dunking the entire game.
- 15:04[SPEAKER_01]: No, I mean, if you look, those guys were wide open.
- 15:06[SPEAKER_01]: There was nobody within 10 yards of them.
- 15:09[SPEAKER_01]: So it's an easy throw.
- 15:11[SPEAKER_01]: It's an easy pick-up of yards, go get another first down.
- 15:14[SPEAKER_01]: And we saw the Broncos have some of the more consistent
- 15:20[SPEAKER_01]: So it was smart play.
- 15:22[SPEAKER_01]: There were a couple plays where things were open down the field, and he didn't take it.
- 15:28[SPEAKER_01]: I really wish there was couple seam routes where I know one was Adam Troutman was wide open for a touch-down.
- 15:35[SPEAKER_01]: Another was Portland Sutton was wide open.
- 15:37[SPEAKER_01]: And then there was another play.
- 15:40[SPEAKER_01]: Unfortunately, the offensive line messed up didn't pick up a switch very well.
- 15:47[SPEAKER_01]: Otherwise, yeah, it's done.
- 15:49[SPEAKER_01]: He was white.
- 15:50[SPEAKER_01]: There's a receiver wide open for another touchdown.
- 15:53[SPEAKER_01]: And unfortunately, Baudenix had to get out of the box.
- 15:55[SPEAKER_01]: That one wasn't his fault.
- 15:56[SPEAKER_01]: But you can see there are opportunities for big plays down the field.
- 16:01[SPEAKER_01]: But right now, I think he's understanding sometimes it is just better to take the get the yards we can move forward.
- 16:10[SPEAKER_01]: And eight yards kind of thing, you're trying to stay on on task.
- 16:15[SPEAKER_01]: You're trying to stay ahead of the chains there.
- 16:18[SPEAKER_01]: And that's something we haven't seen as much from the offense in the first half of the year.
- 16:22[SPEAKER_01]: So I love to see that, especially when you don't have as strong of a run game, he's got to be able to do that.
- 16:28[SPEAKER_01]: You can't have the incompletions that lead to the long plays.
- 16:31[SPEAKER_01]: So and then RJ Harvey, like I said, he took a step forward.
- 16:40[SPEAKER_01]: They're not the best by any means, but they are top five in yards given up per carry.
- 16:44[SPEAKER_01]: They're top 15 and in restaurants allowed in a seat, you know, per game.
- 16:49[SPEAKER_01]: So that they were a good run defense.
- 16:53[SPEAKER_01]: And I felt like Argya Harvey was a lot more confident in the holes that he was supposed to be going through.
- 16:58[SPEAKER_01]: And he really started using his speed to his advantage there.
- 17:04[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, I'm going to get through this.
- 17:05[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to hit as hard as I can.
- 17:06[SPEAKER_01]: And I might mess it up a few times and he did.
- 17:09[SPEAKER_01]: But there were a lot of times where he was in the right place right time picking up some really good positive yards and I hope that that we can see that continue moving forward because like I said, if we don't have a run game, it's really hard to see how this team goes and wins a Super Bowl.
- 17:34[SPEAKER_02]: And they're just not going to be able to hit explosives, which really important didn't matter as much against the Raiders, but it's hard to do with the Broncos data against the Raiders string together nine minute drives multiple times in the game.
- 17:48[SPEAKER_02]: It's just you got to be able to hit some haymakers and hard to do that if teams are playing canopy coverage over the top and you're not sucking them in on play action.
- 17:56[SPEAKER_02]: So it's a
- 17:59[SPEAKER_02]: Football is the perfect game.
- 18:00[SPEAKER_02]: Always the cat and mouse mouse and evolutions and everything like that as well.
- 18:04[SPEAKER_02]: Let's see a lot of some more people in here.
- 18:05[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, we got to see William in here says think love is a little different.
- 18:08[SPEAKER_02]: Two or four interceptions all season.
- 18:09[SPEAKER_02]: We got Bolivian nicks.
- 18:11[SPEAKER_02]: Good to see uh, Ernie Maze in the house.
- 18:13[SPEAKER_02]: Hello, Nick and Carl.
- 18:14[SPEAKER_02]: Go Broncos country.
- 18:15[SPEAKER_02]: great to see a US Dave says mathematically are we bound to lose?
- 18:19[SPEAKER_02]: I think that's gamblers fallacy every time it's a coin flip again right so if you say like out of the next like three are you likely to hit tails you know it's 50 50 every time right the last results don't matter on the coin flip it's not even a true coin flip also it favors Broncos a little bit given how they've been this season I would say overall but
- 18:38[SPEAKER_02]: No, I don't know if they're mathematically bound to lose, but we'll see it's definitely a tough stretch coming up here.
- 18:43[SPEAKER_02]: What I right now, I would probably set the depends on it that week 18 game matters Carl, but like two and a half, we're probably going to be the over underline.
- 18:52[SPEAKER_02]: I think they're more likely to go two and two than four or no right now, right now I bet three and one, but four and I was going to be tough.
- 19:00[SPEAKER_01]: It'll be tough, but and I've had some people say
- 19:06[SPEAKER_01]: And that idea of sometimes it's good for you to lose.
- 19:08[SPEAKER_02]: Hi, I think.
- 19:14[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know, I think it depends on the people in the locker room and the coaching staff.
- 19:17[SPEAKER_02]: And I'll tell you what, I think Sean Payton, he's been around enough that he will manufacture crisis in that building where I don't think they're going to get too complacent, even if they're winning, he's going to find something to make a big deal out of and get them high anxiety and can be, or not confused, but you know, just anxious and on their toes.
- 19:37[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's a great thing that they're underdogs.
- 19:45[SPEAKER_01]: This is our game to go prove when we can be a team that's nine and three and one that's leading their division, are they are they the number one seed and the range are numbers okay, okay, I think it's going to be that kind of team okay now people will start believing that we're possibly super bowl containers we can go in this game so I think there could be maybe some of that.
- 20:08[SPEAKER_01]: Avenue that he tries to play, like I said, he does a great job playing the mine games, no, no, to motivate players the right way.
- 20:16[SPEAKER_01]: And we've seen him get the most out of this roster.
- 20:20[SPEAKER_01]: I think that's been one of the the best things that we get to see is we saw Nathaniel Hackett get the worst of what he possibly could from the roster.
- 20:30[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, there was some talent here.
- 20:33[SPEAKER_01]: It's even something the same talent that's here now, but he couldn't get the best out of him.
- 20:37[SPEAKER_01]: And now, I'll have said, and you're seeing it.
- 20:39[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, we've got a couple people saying that the Packers have never won and Denver before.
- 20:43[SPEAKER_01]: That makes me a little nervous.
- 20:46[SPEAKER_01]: But at the same time, like, it is.
- 20:48[SPEAKER_01]: It's a tough place to come play.
- 20:49[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, we were at that game.
- 20:50[SPEAKER_01]: Was it three seasons ago?
- 20:54[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
- 20:55[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Russell Wilson hand or enough.
- 20:57[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 20:58[SPEAKER_01]: And and we saw some great plays there where and the Broncos were not good at that time.
- 21:03[SPEAKER_01]: I think there were what one in four one in five when they went into that game and that was the start of their five game win streak.
- 21:09[SPEAKER_01]: And and I don't know if Noss is in the in the chat.
- 21:12[SPEAKER_01]: But he was like the one that was like I was starting not not believe that we could win that game.
- 21:15[SPEAKER_01]: Then he showed up the meat and green was like, Oh, we got this guys that gave us this whole motivational speech and and appreciate that.
- 21:22[SPEAKER_01]: But, uh,
- 21:24[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, I do think the Broncos can match up well.
- 21:27[SPEAKER_01]: I think they've got all the talent in the world to go beat any team out there.
- 21:32[SPEAKER_01]: I really don't think there's even like a true front runner team.
- 21:36[SPEAKER_01]: If I had to pick one, it probably would be the ramps of a team that you look like top to bottom.
- 21:40[SPEAKER_01]: Everywhere on the roster, you're kind of going, where's the weakness?
- 21:44[SPEAKER_01]: But even there, they've shown some times where they've been up and down.
- 21:48[SPEAKER_01]: That's about the only roster.
- 21:49[SPEAKER_01]: Every other team, I'm looking at going, yeah, I think Broncos stand a really good chance to beat the team.
- 21:54[SPEAKER_01]: And even if they played the Rams in the Super Bowl, I'd be like, I think Broncos got a really good chance to go win this game.
- 22:00[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm nervous for this game because it is a really good opponent and you're still fighting for that number one seed.
- 22:08[SPEAKER_01]: I think that is a very important thing.
- 22:10[SPEAKER_01]: Broncos played different at home than they do on the road for sure, especially the defense.
- 22:16[SPEAKER_01]: I think we've seen the defense play their best games at home with that home crowd going.
- 22:20[SPEAKER_01]: And I would love for anybody to have to come to Denver and try to play in that environment.
- 22:25[SPEAKER_01]: And we got Chief of Things saying, got to experience Brock's country in Las Vegas, Orange and Blue in the Legion Stadium.
- 22:31[SPEAKER_01]: Incredible experience.
- 22:32[SPEAKER_01]: First game ever buckets, glad you got to go experience that.
- 22:36[SPEAKER_01]: That's one of the stadiums that's on my bucket list to go see a game in.
- 22:41[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm hoping here in the next couple years, maybe I can take my kids or maybe my wife, I guess, maybe it'd be better to take her to Vegas to my kids.
- 22:49[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, when we were there, we saw a lot of baby babies on the steps.
- 22:54[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's true.
- 22:55[SPEAKER_01]: God bless him.
- 22:57[SPEAKER_01]: But no, I'm glad you got to see that game.
- 22:58[SPEAKER_01]: Glad the Broncos put on a good show for you.
- 23:01[SPEAKER_01]: And then to look like it was pretty much, probably 60, 40 Broncos fans in that stadium.
- 23:07[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, up 70% it was a lot of orange that's one reason I always like the orange better feel it go back to the blue orange pop so much in the stands like it's even if it is 50% it feels like 70 it's not a muted color so I always prefer that we got mild high touchy coming in says hello MHH and Broncos fans go Broncos you can be the Packers extend GPs contract right now George Peyton is that who we're talking about here I guess
- 23:34[SPEAKER_02]: Let's see how plays out still.
- 23:35[SPEAKER_02]: I think, you know, you got time.
- 23:36[SPEAKER_02]: There's no reason to rush it.
- 23:37[SPEAKER_02]: Now granted, if that's what Sean Peyton wants, then sure thing.
- 23:40[SPEAKER_02]: But I want to see a little bit more.
- 23:43[SPEAKER_02]: I want to see this next iteration as well because as good as this turnaround has been, I feel like I'd put more credit at that of Sean Peyton's feet.
- 23:53[SPEAKER_02]: And also, I do hold fault for him for Nathaniel Hackett, but also Wilson Trade and Contract.
- 23:59[SPEAKER_02]: So, you know, that's in the past,
- 24:01[SPEAKER_02]: It is on his resume, right?
- 24:03[SPEAKER_02]: So I do want to see it play out a little bit more.
- 24:05[SPEAKER_02]: We got earning, you may as come in, a 31 teams are boring.
- 24:08[SPEAKER_02]: I love earning.
- 24:09[SPEAKER_02]: He doesn't even want to hear about the other teams.
- 24:10[SPEAKER_02]: Broncos, when I think earning watches a game, they're playing against just empty spaces.
- 24:15[SPEAKER_02]: There's nobody else out there playing on air.
- 24:17[SPEAKER_02]: So shout out the earning.
- 24:19[SPEAKER_02]: We got Derek coming in here saying level of worry about the Packers game really tired of the disrespect on the league media doesn't give us much respect.
- 24:26[SPEAKER_02]: I do think I have seen Gosh who is it at NBC?
- 24:31[SPEAKER_02]: Tony Pauline.
- 24:32[SPEAKER_02]: No, that's not it.
- 24:33[SPEAKER_02]: Excuse me.
- 24:33[SPEAKER_02]: That's not the name.
- 24:34[SPEAKER_02]: I can't remember who it is over at NBC But he has a weekly ranking show as well like Chris Sims and stuff and he had the previous a Broncos number one in his power ranking right now.
- 24:43[SPEAKER_02]: So he's done it for a while.
- 24:45[SPEAKER_02]: I cannot think he's one of the
- 24:46[SPEAKER_02]: He's shorter.
- 24:47[SPEAKER_02]: Somebody in the chat probably knows, but yeah, there's some respect out there.
- 24:52[SPEAKER_02]: So that's that's good.
- 24:54[SPEAKER_02]: Floria.
- 24:54[SPEAKER_01]: It does take a while sometimes for people like said to come around.
- 25:02[SPEAKER_01]: They've seen the Broncos be bad.
- 25:03[SPEAKER_01]: And yes, Broncos were 10 and 7 last year.
- 25:06[SPEAKER_01]: And Baudenix is one of those players.
- 25:10[SPEAKER_01]: If you believed in him when he was drafted,
- 25:12[SPEAKER_01]: you like certain things that he's shown and you're like, yep, that proves it.
- 25:15[SPEAKER_01]: If you didn't like him, there's things you're gonna point to and say, yep, that's why he's not good.
- 25:19[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think any of that has changed either way for people where they stood on him.
- 25:24[SPEAKER_01]: And
- 25:25[SPEAKER_01]: And so a lot of people in the rankings it really depends on the quarterback of how you feel about them.
- 25:31[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I'm sure a few of you probably watched the show first things first with Nick Wright and those kind of guys, and of course they're all Bronco haters.
- 25:40[SPEAKER_01]: And I think one of their guys is a Charter's fan, one of their guys is a Raven's fan, one of their guys is a Patriot fan, one of them's a Chief's fan.
- 25:47[SPEAKER_01]: So any chance that they can get the dog on the Broncos, like I saw, they did their quarterback pyramid,
- 25:53[SPEAKER_01]: But it didn't even remember that Bonax played a game this last week.
- 25:56[SPEAKER_01]: They said that he was on a by week.
- 25:58[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, so I'm kind of like, you know, it's kind of hard to take them serious when they they haven't really been paying attention a whole lot.
- 26:06[SPEAKER_01]: So anyway, we've got Ralph coming in saying 131 in Denver for the Packers, but remember the Packers are O and 1 in the Super Bowl against us.
- 26:12[SPEAKER_01]: That's the one that matters.
- 26:14[SPEAKER_01]: Or one at 13.
- 26:16[SPEAKER_01]: And yes, the big one, the matters Super Bowl, I would love to see that rematch again, I think that's a fun one, you know, that was my first really big memory of the Broncos.
- 26:28[SPEAKER_01]: I was seventh grade when the Broncos won that Super Bowl and got to have my first football party of people coming over friends and I just remember us reenacting a lot of the plays one person being John L. way.
- 26:41[SPEAKER_01]: I got to be true all Davis and so doing the dive over the couch for a touchdown kind of thing and putting going flying and yeah I got in a lot of trouble
- 26:56[SPEAKER_02]: So accounts do want to get into RG Harvey still, but we got Jay coming in, whoop, good to see you.
- 27:02[SPEAKER_02]: Dang, a very sports appreciator says happy Tuesday.
- 27:04[SPEAKER_02]: Hello, everyone.
- 27:06[SPEAKER_02]: Good to see Elias did want to say hello to you.
- 27:08[SPEAKER_02]: Eli Pearls in the house.
- 27:09[SPEAKER_02]: Hi, how you doing Pearl, hope everything's doing well.
- 27:12[SPEAKER_02]: Hope the oops, sorry.
- 27:12[SPEAKER_02]: Go ahead and hands off the wheel.
- 27:14[SPEAKER_02]: Film a golf on coming in, super chat.
- 27:15[SPEAKER_02]: I wanted to give a shout out the Ralph coming over to the super chat.
- 27:17[SPEAKER_02]: Now we got Phil as well, dogs back in here.
- 27:20[SPEAKER_02]: Kid was eating downstairs and he was crying.
- 27:22[SPEAKER_02]: Now he's back.
- 27:22[SPEAKER_02]: Sonic, come on, man.
- 27:25[SPEAKER_02]: We got fills and good evening Nick and Carl and he can Scott three keys to winning
- 27:31[SPEAKER_02]: Oh man, Scormor points to the other team has probably got to be number one, I think you have to win the turnover battle in this one.
- 27:39[SPEAKER_02]: I, Denver isn't really struggled taking the ball away.
- 27:42[SPEAKER_02]: This season, I don't know what it is.
- 27:44[SPEAKER_02]: They just haven't done it.
- 27:45[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, Sean Peyton said it was one of the, let's all hit two of the Sean Peyton keys.
- 27:49[SPEAKER_02]: When the turnover battle, which means a defense taking the bleep and ball away, Jordan level do some trick shots.
- 27:54[SPEAKER_02]: And with how much man coverage you play and have a throw off his back foot and y'all Kobe, like,
- 27:59[SPEAKER_02]: you think there'll be some chances out there and he they've really pushed the ball against man coverage.
- 28:05[SPEAKER_02]: Let's see him take the frickin ball away, you know, probably Moss.
- 28:08[SPEAKER_02]: Come on, buddy, it's time.
- 28:09[SPEAKER_02]: And also still Sean Peyton again, two things we've been on all season, penalties.
- 28:14[SPEAKER_02]: Like they're still a really struggling with penalties.
- 28:16[SPEAKER_02]: So, um,
- 28:17[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, those are the, those are two.
- 28:19[SPEAKER_02]: I'll give you another one Carl, if you want here, but those are the two that really stand out.
- 28:23[SPEAKER_02]: When the take.
- 28:23[SPEAKER_02]: When the turnover battle, but like I want to see freaking take away, it's not just like, oh, zero zero again.
- 28:28[SPEAKER_02]: No, we need to start freaking turn in the ball over or take in the ball away and when the penalty matchup as well.
- 28:34[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'll put it out a couple here.
- 28:36[SPEAKER_01]: I'd say you can't let my comparisons ruin the game.
- 28:41[SPEAKER_01]: You've got to do a great job of keeping eye on him.
- 28:43[SPEAKER_01]: He's very different than.
- 28:45[SPEAKER_01]: Then really any other edge rush route there because of how much they move him around, you know, one play he'll be coming up a gap, then they'll move them to to the edge sometimes they'll have them.
- 28:57[SPEAKER_01]: Drop back and cover, you know, he just he's everywhere and he's going to try to find that the weakest spot, which right now is pelchesty.
- 29:06[SPEAKER_01]: So we got to see, I'm guessing he's probably going to get matched up against him a couple of times.
- 29:11[SPEAKER_01]: And you better get him some help, because that's going to be a really bad matchup for him.
- 29:16[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm really hoping the Broncos can do a great job.
- 29:18[SPEAKER_01]: Keep in track, point them out.
- 29:20[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, he's right here.
- 29:21[SPEAKER_01]: Let's make sure we got a couple guys blocking or running back help and I didn't chipping whatever you need to do to make sure that that guy does not wreck your game plan because he's that kind of a player out there.
- 29:31[SPEAKER_01]: There's like three or four guys that you could make that kind of claim for.
- 29:36[SPEAKER_02]: He's one of the top three best-pass wrestlers in football.
- 29:40[SPEAKER_02]: Will Anderson, Miles Garrett, I love you, Nick Minito, Mike a person.
- 29:44[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, Minito's great.
- 29:45[SPEAKER_02]: He's not on the tier with those guys.
- 29:47[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe he'd Hutchinson, but I wouldn't.
- 29:49[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's those three.
- 29:50[SPEAKER_02]: They stand alone.
- 29:51[SPEAKER_02]: And to that point, Carl, how do you keep a good pass for us, Rebecca?
- 29:57[SPEAKER_02]: Run the ball.
- 29:58[SPEAKER_02]: Run the ball.
- 29:58[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
- 30:00[SPEAKER_02]: You need to be better on first and second down.
- 30:02[SPEAKER_02]: If you are constantly third and long behind the sticks, obvious past situations, protect bone X, because Micah Parsons could.
- 30:12[SPEAKER_02]: if it's to rate him, especially if they're moving pockets as much.
- 30:15[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I was talking about it on Monday morning.
- 30:17[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if anybody in the NFL closes space, like my comparisons, I know Benito, like the get off, maybe Benito's number one with like the bend, but like from A to B, if there's space to close, person, it's like a freaking lion, it is.
- 30:31[SPEAKER_02]: unbelievable.
- 30:32[SPEAKER_02]: And with how much the Broncos move the pockets and bonus plays laterally, that scares me.
- 30:37[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if I necessarily want as many movies.
- 30:39[SPEAKER_02]: I get to use it somewhat and we saw Caleb Williams doing it last week too, but I'd rather see a little bit more static vertical drop backs and chop plays down the field and playing with the integrity of the pocket to not allow those spaces to close.
- 30:51[SPEAKER_02]: And winning on first and second down is absolutely huge for that as well.
- 30:54[SPEAKER_02]: I did want to sail out of David, says a little bit on Can't Stay back on the ICU,
- 30:59[SPEAKER_02]: going to try to sleep nurses want me off the phone.
- 31:01[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, David thinking about you, buddy.
- 31:04[SPEAKER_02]: Um, that is.
- 31:05[SPEAKER_02]: That is no good.
- 31:06[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, people in the chat make sure you send your best thoughts, prayers, vibes, everything.
- 31:12[SPEAKER_02]: Also, we got string guys and just got the hospital today, two tubes in my right side, drain and infection, doing better.
- 31:17[SPEAKER_02]: You guys need to stay healthy.
- 31:19[SPEAKER_02]: Gosh, John, the broccoli's finally have a good team together and you guys are falling apart.
- 31:23[SPEAKER_02]: So, oh, there goes my camera.
- 31:24[SPEAKER_02]: But then, seriously, get healthy.
- 31:26[SPEAKER_02]: Michael Rankillo, good evening.
- 31:28[SPEAKER_02]: Go build in the Broncos, go Michael.
- 31:29[SPEAKER_02]: Appreciate you coming in here.
- 31:31[SPEAKER_02]: Hope you're doing well.
- 31:32[SPEAKER_02]: And hopefully you're healthy, Ronk, as Roy comes in and say I'm the Ronk.
- 31:36[SPEAKER_02]: I did see our guy also maybe Scott can see a Patrick is in the house are one of the all-time bests.
- 31:43[SPEAKER_02]: I'm always going to see Patrick.
- 31:44[SPEAKER_02]: He said that he's sending coffee my way there we go.
- 31:47[SPEAKER_02]: I got it.
- 31:48[SPEAKER_02]: The low hobby to be will send SOS tomorrow.
- 31:49[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I needed some of that vanilla macadamia started that job and it's a kick in my butt.
- 31:54[SPEAKER_02]: We got no what come in.
- 31:56[SPEAKER_02]: It's up fellas.
- 31:56[SPEAKER_02]: Great to see you.
- 31:57[SPEAKER_02]: Good to see you so much.
- 31:59[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Michael St. Hello to Summit.
- 32:01[SPEAKER_02]: Also awesome to see
- 32:02[SPEAKER_02]: more people in here, I, I, Zayra, I, Zayra see you coming in.
- 32:10[SPEAKER_02]: I, I, I, seven, six, four says they don't sit down and watch the games analyze.
- 32:13[SPEAKER_02]: I talked about what gets them views and clicks, especially Nick wrong.
- 32:16[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I've been joined the bits where he's really haven't echo and they've been given him a lot of flag for it as well, so I'll take it.
- 32:24[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I know Carl, I do want to get into RJ Harvey.
- 32:29[SPEAKER_02]: on this game and I almost wondered if this last game for the Broncos given how they utilize personnel, la probably the most six personnel we've seen in weeks from the Broncos you got Mercedes Lewis out snap in Evan Ingraham, you got Will Jordan Humphrey out there Troy Franklin getting the least snap he's gotten in weeks.
- 32:49[SPEAKER_01]: What was that Troy Franklin, he was fifth amongst the
- 32:57[SPEAKER_01]: And then like I said, a little Jordan Humphrey, Pat Bryant, and of course, Cortland Sutton.
- 33:02[SPEAKER_01]: Though he's fallen off the, it snaps have gone down the last about three weeks now.
- 33:08[SPEAKER_01]: And you're starting to see where, like I said, Broncos are trying to go big.
- 33:11[SPEAKER_01]: They're trying to go, they're trying to figure out the right personnel to have a run game.
- 33:17[SPEAKER_01]: And,
- 33:18[SPEAKER_01]: if you can't block, you're not gonna see the field right now.
- 33:21[SPEAKER_01]: And Troy Franklin, he's been better this year at the blocker, but he's not great.
- 33:27[SPEAKER_01]: That's never been the strength of his game.
- 33:29[SPEAKER_01]: And I mean, I will give credit to Troy Franklin.
- 33:32[SPEAKER_01]: He's probably been our best receiver of getting open.
- 33:36[SPEAKER_01]: That's why he at one point had the most targets on this team.
- 33:39[SPEAKER_01]: And part of that's because Sutton, he's being double triple teamed.
- 33:43[SPEAKER_01]: So even if he, yeah, he's not getting open
- 33:48[SPEAKER_01]: But for Franklin has done a good job of getting open, but he just, he can't be a trusted player on the field right now.
- 33:53[SPEAKER_01]: Some of the drops, even this last game, the couple opportunities he did get, he had won the bounce off his helmet.
- 34:00[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it was a rocket by a bow next, but it's a, I asked you, expect an NFL receiver to catch.
- 34:06[SPEAKER_01]: And he didn't make it.
- 34:07[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I was watching the, the Packers game against the bears earlier today.
- 34:12[SPEAKER_01]: And there is one where receiver just laid out one handed brought it in for a catch.
- 34:17[SPEAKER_01]: Like, man, we haven't seen that from a Bronchers receiver for a while.
- 34:21[SPEAKER_01]: Or the sun's done it a couple times, not this year.
- 34:24[SPEAKER_01]: But like last year, there was a couple times that you're before that, but just seeing a guy that could make a really, really tough catch, we haven't really had that as much.
- 34:33[SPEAKER_01]: And that's where, for a Franklin, one bad drop can ruin a game.
- 34:37[SPEAKER_01]: Look at the chiefs against Houston.
- 34:40[SPEAKER_01]: It was more of a run that drop.
- 34:41[SPEAKER_01]: What it was, but, but, but those drops really make or break a season sometimes or make a break a game, a must win game and you have that kind of thing.
- 34:52[SPEAKER_01]: And then like I said, the run game, you got to get your best guys out there and I know I had somebody messaged me during the game to like, why is little Jordan Humphrey on the field?
- 35:00[SPEAKER_01]: I hate seeing that guy.
- 35:01[SPEAKER_01]: Well, he's trusted by the coaches.
- 35:04[SPEAKER_01]: Trust goes a long way of getting you snaps.
- 35:07[SPEAKER_01]: And yes, he's not the best player, but the guys will end up putting the work.
- 35:10[SPEAKER_01]: He's in the right place at the right time.
- 35:12[SPEAKER_01]: And that's important when it comes to an NFL game.
- 35:16[SPEAKER_01]: To know that your guy's going to do his job.
- 35:20[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, that's almost everything.
- 35:23[SPEAKER_02]: And passing, right, known as your right spot and everything like that, did you have a comment here?
- 35:27[SPEAKER_02]: Did you want to get a few more?
- 35:32[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, it depends on who you ask, right?
- 35:33[SPEAKER_02]: I think he's a wide receiver three or four, on a team that's lacking top, wide receiver talent.
- 35:38[SPEAKER_02]: This season of top offensive playmaker talent.
- 35:41[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm totally fine with him in that role being kind of a stretch Z and offering a little bit of verticality to the offense, but when he is your number one target getter, there's a problem.
- 35:53[SPEAKER_02]: So, obviously, not too much of a problem, because you are ten and
- 35:57[SPEAKER_02]: 11 and two 10 and two whatever the heck the Broncos are right now winning a lot of games 10 and row so there must be 11 and two, but no, yeah, it's You know, and he's also definitely youngest player on the roster as well.
- 36:08[SPEAKER_02]: So give it time.
- 36:09[SPEAKER_02]: It's look at the rookie contract fourth round pick for reason, but like I think people are thinking he's going to be this like.
- 36:14[SPEAKER_02]: super star wide receiver run.
- 36:16[SPEAKER_02]: Then I'd say you probably have more rated, but as far as you know, serviceable three or four in a rotation on a rookie contract, especially when guys like that are getting booko books on the market because teams are desperate for wide receiver.
- 36:29[SPEAKER_02]: He's positive ROI for the draft pick in the contract, just you do wish you had better than him further up the pecking order.
- 36:36[SPEAKER_02]: But
- 36:37[SPEAKER_02]: Can't complain too much about how they built the team is working pretty well, trench-oriented, baby.
- 36:41[SPEAKER_02]: Let's beat the heck out of teams on the line of the skirmish and protect the football.
- 36:45[SPEAKER_02]: Benjamin comes in and says, Peyton neutralizes Miles Garrett, and we beat the Browns with Wilson, got to have faith in you the same with Parsons.
- 36:52[SPEAKER_02]: Different players, like Parsons is a bit more weaponized where Garrett's just like lining up every play.
- 36:58[SPEAKER_02]: Sometimes a weaponized him too, you know, over the A gap or standing up, but like Parsons is a chess piece.
- 37:05[SPEAKER_02]: gosh, the Packers Defense Accordinator.
- 37:07[SPEAKER_02]: I keep wanting to say Hypal, but I know he's the offense or the head coach of Tennessee, but he's done a really good job on the Packers Defense Accordinator.
- 37:17[SPEAKER_02]: Name starts with an H, former BC.
- 37:20[SPEAKER_02]: Halfly, halfly.
- 37:21[SPEAKER_02]: Halfly, I was like, Jeff something, halfly.
- 37:24[SPEAKER_02]: He's going to get head coaching interviews this season.
- 37:27[SPEAKER_02]: Packers have been really good.
- 37:28[SPEAKER_02]: Again, I mentioned just the speed they have sideline to sideline.
- 37:30[SPEAKER_02]: They're one of the best teams in the entire NFL and limiting explosive plays as well and they're just you know weaponized one reason to stay ahead of the sticks against them and how the Broncos attack the football field in the past game, but also the run game does not match much match up well with how the packers play like if you're trying to throw short of the sticks and letting your wide receivers create some yak or you're trying to run outside the screen game.
- 37:57[SPEAKER_02]: I just don't think you're in a fine much success.
- 37:58[SPEAKER_02]: They're just so freaking fast and they're defensive backstackles.
- 38:02[SPEAKER_02]: So well, so you're gonna have to run at them a little bit, duo, power, vertical shots, the dagger route, finding the soft spot in the zone, cover four, cover six, you'll see from the packers a little but they do a little bit of everything but they're more zone oriented.
- 38:15[SPEAKER_02]: So,
- 38:16[SPEAKER_02]: It's going to be a heck of a matchup, man.
- 38:17[SPEAKER_02]: I think this is going to be a white knuckle one for both teams and I expected to be a lot of haymakers and personally, you know, big ten football, that's what I grew up on.
- 38:28[SPEAKER_02]: I'm okay with a low score and, you know, battle of a tradition that hopefully we see here.
- 38:35[SPEAKER_02]: Jordan Love can fling it though, so we'll see.
- 38:37[SPEAKER_02]: We got Cody coming in and says more going to get new playing time, more, is he talking
- 38:46[SPEAKER_02]: Who?
- 38:46[SPEAKER_02]: No, it lives a more, why do you want to say more?
- 38:50[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, yeah, but I don't expect him to get any playing time barring injury.
- 38:54[SPEAKER_02]: He had a chance to go with multiple teams.
- 38:55[SPEAKER_02]: Buffalo is desperate for why to receive her help as well, and they let him go from nothing.
- 38:59[SPEAKER_02]: So I think he is just a great glass in case of emergency Z slot option.
- 39:04[SPEAKER_02]: If something were to happen to Franklin slash mimms.
- 39:07[SPEAKER_02]: Maybe though weaponized mimms, I think we talked about last week, maybe Carl, but like maybe
- 39:12[SPEAKER_02]: running back package down the stretch here in the playoffs and that puts a little bit more injury risk for him as well, but I don't expect to see more bar injury.
- 39:22[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, when that question earlier of the keys to the game, I think one of mine would be maybe find two more touches for Marvin Mimbs for game.
- 39:33[SPEAKER_01]: just because he is so explosive every time he gets the ball could end up in being a touchdown, whether it's him running deep forward touchdown or even taking past out of the back field, turning it into a 40 50 yard play.
- 39:47[SPEAKER_01]: I think you've just got to utilize that a little bit more because you're not having the explosive plays right now.
- 39:51[SPEAKER_01]: And he's one that can make make something happen that the others can't.
- 39:55[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm hoping we see a little bit more of him.
- 39:59[SPEAKER_01]: And I love always seeing Mike S. Come in and say what's up Nick Carl and Broncos country get to see you as well.
- 40:04[SPEAKER_01]: It's just talking to somebody earlier about Alabama player with a draft.
- 40:08[SPEAKER_01]: Not this year next year, but not behind Williams.
- 40:12[SPEAKER_02]: Talk about bad hands.
- 40:14[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it was Ryan Williams and I said I don't think that's the kind of right wide receiver John Peyton would want here in Denver.
- 40:19[SPEAKER_01]: He's good.
- 40:20[SPEAKER_01]: He drops everything.
- 40:21[SPEAKER_02]: Got his, he's been, he's been a head case this year on the on the field.
- 40:24[SPEAKER_02]: It seemed like a good guy off the field, but yeah, he's been, I think I like Cam Coleman more than him.
- 40:30[SPEAKER_02]: And I definitely like.
- 40:33[SPEAKER_02]: Donovan Smith out there, don't not Donovan Smith, Jeremiah Smith, I always do that.
- 40:37[SPEAKER_02]: Thought of Smith, Old Buff Tackle, Jeremiah Smith, at Ohio State, but there's a few other guys.
- 40:42[SPEAKER_02]: So we'll see what happens here.
- 40:43[SPEAKER_02]: I have to talk about Archie Harvey, what a game for Archie Harvey, 100 yards, total yards.
- 40:50[SPEAKER_02]: He broke tackles better than we've seen this season.
- 40:53[SPEAKER_02]: He showed a little bit more patience as well.
- 40:56[SPEAKER_02]: I still feel like long-term his best is a one-beat.
- 41:00[SPEAKER_02]: Somebody else is one-ay.
- 41:01[SPEAKER_02]: That can run a little bit more of the between the tackle runs.
- 41:04[SPEAKER_02]: But I am just really, really impressed with Harvey's
- 41:08[SPEAKER_02]: natural hands.
- 41:09[SPEAKER_02]: He brings in the ball so smoothly and I'm not, you know, disparage somebody, but like, you know, I talk about the explosiveness of Philip Lindsey as a runner and like, wow, why don't they just, you know, use them as a running back out of the backfield.
- 41:20[SPEAKER_02]: And it's like, it never looked that coordinated pulling the ball in like that transition from receiver hauling it into runner and Harvey does it really, really well.
- 41:31[SPEAKER_02]: So maybe we're going to test these Packers, linebackers and defensive backs in this one.
- 41:35[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, they have Adrian Cooper is one of the
- 41:38[SPEAKER_02]: Young linebackers in football, top three, one of the young linebackers that got Quay Walker, as well as who's been awesome, Evan Williams, tackles like a Banshee for them, but Harvey out of the backfields have been great, and it's really good to see him get a little bit of between the tackles run as well, looking a lot better against the Raiders.
- 41:54[SPEAKER_02]: I won't be curious to see if the Broncos go a little bit more heavy personnel again, like they did with the raiders or if instead they go more 11 personnel base and try to, it's kind of counterintuitive.
- 42:07[SPEAKER_02]: You think like more guys in the box, more bodies to help, but in a sim pressure era, if you have less guys, near the quarterback line of scrimmage,
- 42:16[SPEAKER_02]: you can't disguise your past rushers as much like you have to declare right like Micah Parsons playing over the slot like sometimes you know that's come late but you have to give a lot more time um for that where if like you have a 12 personnel and he's lined up over the A-gap who's dropping who's coming and going it's just it's harder for the quarterback uh sometimes to diagnose pre-snap and immediately post-snap who's coming and going and the packers like to weaponize uh that because they have Micah Parsons uh
- 42:43[SPEAKER_02]: Rochon Gary, Lucas Van Ness, the Enigbari, one of the best run defense, Wyman and the entire NFL.
- 42:51[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, I'm honestly looking for them to spread it out a little bit in this one.
- 42:56[SPEAKER_02]: So they have to declare, make them cover every blade of grass, make them cover horizontally, and then punch them in the middle of the defense.
- 43:03[SPEAKER_02]: If I was coordinating with Chon Peyton, it was better than me.
- 43:05[SPEAKER_02]: That's just my first thought when I watched this event.
- 43:09[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 43:09[SPEAKER_01]: I think for me, RJ Harvey, the part that has surprised me the most has actually been his goal line ability.
- 43:18[SPEAKER_01]: He's done a great job being a smaller back, being a guy that we really brought in more for his explosive playability.
- 43:25[SPEAKER_01]: And he's shown that some.
- 43:28[SPEAKER_01]: But I think he has now three or four goal line touchdowns.
- 43:33[SPEAKER_01]: rushing, not not receiving.
- 43:35[SPEAKER_01]: And then you add in another couple of receiving goal-line touchdowns as well.
- 43:38[SPEAKER_01]: So he's become a real threat in the red zone for you.
- 43:41[SPEAKER_01]: That wasn't there before.
- 43:43[SPEAKER_01]: I know a big stat that was going out this week was that RJ Harvey is only the sixth rookie since 1990 to have five plus rushing touchdowns and four plus receiving touchdowns.
- 43:53[SPEAKER_01]: joining guys like SayQuam Barclay, Alvin Camera, David Johnson, Matt Fortay, and Edron James.
- 43:59[SPEAKER_01]: That's a pretty good list of names to join.
- 44:03[SPEAKER_01]: Now, I don't think he's to that level of what they've shown.
- 44:06[SPEAKER_01]: Those other guys have shown quite yet, but you see the promise, you see what Sean Payton saw when he drafted him.
- 44:15[SPEAKER_01]: that this guy could be a real weapon in both the running game and the passing game.
- 44:21[SPEAKER_01]: And so yeah, I'm very happy with what he's shown so far.
- 44:24[SPEAKER_01]: And I do think his best games are ahead of him.
- 44:27[SPEAKER_01]: I think this last game that you saw, Broncos trusted him the most.
- 44:30[SPEAKER_01]: He had 17 carries.
- 44:32[SPEAKER_01]: Next guy had four.
- 44:33[SPEAKER_01]: and McLaughlin.
- 44:34[SPEAKER_01]: And McLaughlin had a decent game.
- 44:37[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I think he had four carries for 22 yards.
- 44:41[SPEAKER_01]: And he had the same number of carries as Bade.
- 44:45[SPEAKER_01]: So you're seeing that they've now made that decision.
- 44:48[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, Harvey is our number one guy.
- 44:50[SPEAKER_01]: He's gonna get the bulk of the carries.
- 44:53[SPEAKER_01]: And we think that this is going to work well for our offense.
- 44:57[SPEAKER_01]: And like I said, he's starting to break some tackles.
- 44:59[SPEAKER_01]: He's starting to be a lot more confident, hitting the line of scrimmage, how he needs to hit it.
- 45:03[SPEAKER_01]: And I just, like I said, I think his best days are ahead.
- 45:07[SPEAKER_01]: And he's going to be such a big piece of, if we are going to really be a super bowl contender.
- 45:12[SPEAKER_01]: And if we beat the packers, I think it's going to be another game where he has probably $100 per per per se yards.
- 45:18[SPEAKER_01]: If he can't quite get to that, it's going to be tough to beat him.
- 45:21[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 45:23[SPEAKER_02]: can be tough to beat them in general.
- 45:25[SPEAKER_02]: This is probably the Broncos most talented opponent.
- 45:30[SPEAKER_02]: So far, I mean, if you're just going based on Vegas odds, I think Packers are three right now or two in Vegas odds.
- 45:36[SPEAKER_02]: So that would put them as the most type of opponent.
- 45:38[SPEAKER_02]: Luckily, it is that Denver, and Denver is on 11 game win streak.
- 45:41[SPEAKER_02]: But I really do think the key is for the Broncos to be
- 45:46[SPEAKER_02]: The run game in the middle of the field between the tackles and also, uh, though next to be able to hit those whole shots in zone.
- 45:53[SPEAKER_02]: And some of those, I mean, they're tough.
- 45:56[SPEAKER_02]: You got to trust your arm and the timing and everything and fit those in there.
- 45:59[SPEAKER_02]: And there's added risk, right?
- 46:01[SPEAKER_02]: That some of those can get bad at tipped and the eyes on the football eyes on the quarterback, uh, but to move the football, especially if you're trying to get some chunkways.
- 46:07[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think it can be side blind behind the line of scrimmage five yards.
- 46:12[SPEAKER_02]: You know, outside the hash marks constantly and then play action shot plays, like you're going to have to hit some, you know, tough throws in this one.
- 46:20[SPEAKER_02]: Now the Packers defense isn't, you know, a top five unit in the league.
- 46:23[SPEAKER_02]: Like they have, especially at corner back Bay of some weaknesses on their little bit light up front as well, but the, the big time match up for this game is the Broncos defense versus the Packers offense.
- 46:33[SPEAKER_02]: And this is going to be a big, this is a huge measuring stick game for the Broncos.
- 46:37[SPEAKER_02]: We haven't even mentioned yet Josh Jacobs.
- 46:39[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, he.
- 46:41[SPEAKER_02]: Unfortunately, he's been daddy for the Broncos over his career hate to say it, but he's dominated and the Broncos tried really hard to sign him.
- 46:48[SPEAKER_02]: If you guys were called two years ago, and he said, I want to sign with the contender and pick the Packers over the Broncos.
- 46:53[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, we'll see.
- 46:54[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I don't think he made a bad decision per say because the Packers have been awesome with him, but you know, maybe that can give the defense roll up a little bit too.
- 47:04[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, the Packers.
- 47:06[SPEAKER_02]: What's really, I don't want to get the code is coming here, but it's so tough for the Packers because like you have PS2 who's like a matchup eraser, right?
- 47:15[SPEAKER_02]: There's nobody to erase for this Packers team.
- 47:17[SPEAKER_02]: There are a team of a bunch of number twos and number threes and because of the quarterback in the system, they, you don't have simply, okay, PS2 you're taking out, Jamar Chase.
- 47:27[SPEAKER_02]: PS2 you're taking out,
- 47:29[SPEAKER_02]: You know, George Pickins.
- 47:30[SPEAKER_02]: I guess the George Pickins and Chase are not good examples because you got good barge series on the opposite side of them, but Jackson Smith and Jigba.
- 47:35[SPEAKER_02]: See you.
- 47:36[SPEAKER_02]: You're out of the game because we have PS2 on you.
- 47:38[SPEAKER_02]: They don't have that.
- 47:39[SPEAKER_02]: They will pick whatever matchups are really curious to see what Vansos it does as far as who's lining up with who.
- 47:46[SPEAKER_02]: And.
- 47:47[SPEAKER_02]: Just how those matchups play out.
- 47:48[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, Christian Watson's been so explosive.
- 47:51[SPEAKER_02]: Romeo adopts his playing great.
- 47:52[SPEAKER_02]: Wix is playing good football.
- 47:54[SPEAKER_02]: They just got read back as well.
- 47:56[SPEAKER_02]: They're not even using their first shot.
- 47:57[SPEAKER_02]: I'm picking golden right now.
- 47:59[SPEAKER_02]: I know that Broncos fans really wanted golden.
- 48:01[SPEAKER_02]: So it's going to be a fascinating matchup.
- 48:05[SPEAKER_02]: Man, I cannot wait.
- 48:06[SPEAKER_02]: I do think their defense of line though is
- 48:09[SPEAKER_02]: average.
- 48:10[SPEAKER_02]: That's something that can tilt the scales for the Broncos.
- 48:12[SPEAKER_02]: Hopefully, Cody W coming in.
- 48:14[SPEAKER_02]: $5.00.
- 48:15[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you so much Cody for supporting this show.
- 48:17[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to wrap it on up here pretty soon.
- 48:18[SPEAKER_02]: So I'll get your last second super chats in and appreciate everybody.
- 48:22[SPEAKER_02]: It says seems to me both starting to get a little bit more settled.
- 48:25[SPEAKER_02]: He's had some pretty good no look passes versus the raiders.
- 48:28[SPEAKER_02]: He had that one over the middle of the field where he, I juke.
- 48:33[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know what
- 48:37[SPEAKER_02]: Again, bonus didn't have to reinvent the wheel and this one, he was really efficient and sometimes it's all you need versus your opponent.
- 48:44[SPEAKER_02]: They had yards accessible to them underneath and he did that for the most part.
- 48:49[SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, he definitely is playing a little bit more comfortable and I feel like his, his timing and his footwork just does not look as erratic right down.
- 49:00[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see if you could sped up with some.
- 49:03[SPEAKER_02]: good past wrestlers and the packers also the jacks have some decent past wrestlers as a well coming up here.
- 49:07[SPEAKER_02]: Luckily the Brock has been playing at home, so hopefully that'll help some.
- 49:10[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, no, it's he's looked more confident and more comfortable.
- 49:13[SPEAKER_02]: And like I said, last four weeks, top five in EPA per play.
- 49:16[SPEAKER_02]: Not a perfect stat, but better than almost every single other one.
- 49:20[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he still has a couple of times where he's still leaving the pocket before he
- 49:25[SPEAKER_01]: There's a couple times I think he should have kept his eyes down the field and he just got a little bit jittery, but I mean, he's still, I have to remember this guy still second your quarterback in the NFL.
- 49:37[SPEAKER_01]: He's still young, he's still got plenty of time to get it all figured out.
- 49:40[SPEAKER_01]: The fact that they're winning while he's figuring it out is incredible to see.
- 49:45[SPEAKER_01]: And like I said, he does look more settled, he's looking better at getting through his actual reads, keeping his feet with his eyes.
- 49:53[SPEAKER_01]: And so then you're not seeing quite the erratic passes that we were watching there for a while where it's like, where the world we're even throwing it.
- 50:00[SPEAKER_01]: And now it's no, okay, that makes sense.
- 50:03[SPEAKER_01]: Still a couple inaccurate throws.
- 50:05[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I'm nitpicking here.
- 50:07[SPEAKER_01]: I know people are going to be like, oh, well, now you really, you're one of those bone excitators.
- 50:12[SPEAKER_01]: No, I really like what Bo's showing.
- 50:15[SPEAKER_01]: And I really do think he has made the turn that little mini by that they had before the chief's game.
- 50:21[SPEAKER_01]: You can tell, like there's just been a difference in him since then, and if he can continue down this trend, I think there's as good a chance as any for the Broncos to be the AFC representation in the Super Bowl.
- 50:35[SPEAKER_02]: They got a chance, man, anybody right now, I think, right, just taking the pulse on the talking heads that don't cover the Broncos, which, you know, still a good brahmer to have, I think overall, because they're not as biased based on the information that we have in front of us and every, well, they are biased, but in a different way.
- 50:56[SPEAKER_02]: But I think they still don't believe the Broncos, and that's final four games stretch, we'll see, but they're really jumping on the
- 51:04[SPEAKER_02]: You know, Bill's just because of the reality of the quarterback kind of in Josh Allen, he can go supernova, which is something that we have not seen from Bonex, which is fine, you know, you don't have to hit that, but having that ability to just go completely unconscious and like we can't stop this guy no matter what we do.
- 51:21[SPEAKER_02]: is a card that sometimes you need to play in a playoffs.
- 51:23[SPEAKER_02]: Hopefully you don't have to because you're offensive line, you're scheming, and your defense are doing enough.
- 51:28[SPEAKER_02]: They quarterback doesn't have to put their fingers in five different sprung leaks on the leaky boat of the team, but you never know, if you're paying a guy like that, they do have to be that.
- 51:39[SPEAKER_02]: So,
- 51:39[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, David demand seeing everything that's going on.
- 51:42[SPEAKER_02]: That's really scary stuff.
- 51:44[SPEAKER_02]: Hopefully, they can get it all centered here and you feeling a lot better.
- 51:48[SPEAKER_02]: Very soon.
- 51:49[SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, just to put a bow on it and it feels weird to jump back and forth and talk about your life there.
- 51:54[SPEAKER_02]: So really, just shout out to you, David.
- 51:57[SPEAKER_02]: Listen to your nurses.
- 51:57[SPEAKER_02]: Listen to your doctors.
- 51:59[SPEAKER_02]: But
- 52:00[SPEAKER_02]: RJ Harvey, I still don't buy him as like this, you know, total workhorse back.
- 52:05[SPEAKER_02]: I Denver has to add another running back this off season.
- 52:08[SPEAKER_02]: It's probably like that in a white tight end.
- 52:10[SPEAKER_02]: The biggest priorities of the like over arching offensive weapon, but I'm with how he looked.
- 52:19[SPEAKER_02]: I'm feeling a lot better.
- 52:20[SPEAKER_02]: And if you look like that the rest of the way, you have a chance.
- 52:22[SPEAKER_02]: If he doesn't, if he goes back to a pre Raiders game RJ Harvey, I just don't think,
- 52:28[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know if Bonix can put together three incredible super games because he'd have to win the Super Bowl or four, depending on where they finish.
- 52:37[SPEAKER_01]: I'm with you.
- 52:38[SPEAKER_01]: Like I said, you need that little bit of a thread of a run game team to have to respect it where they can't just drop back like I said and just say, hey, we're gonna only have five, six guys in the box, maybe seven and we still don't believe you could do anything against it.
- 52:53[SPEAKER_01]: you got to make them at least believe that there's something going on there.
- 52:56[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm with you.
- 52:59[SPEAKER_01]: I think I'm believing a little bit in RJ Harvey.
- 53:03[SPEAKER_01]: I still don't like that there's quite a few zero or negative plays, but they're becoming less and less.
- 53:12[SPEAKER_01]: And the other big part of it for me
- 53:17[SPEAKER_01]: If he is free injury been powers, then I think this run game can really take off, because he was incredible as a run blocker.
- 53:26[SPEAKER_01]: Like I think before he was hurt, he was our best run blocker on the team.
- 53:31[SPEAKER_01]: And so if he can get back to that and you, and I'll just be, he's done a fine job, but there is a difference between what he can bring and what a whole, a fully healthy been powers can bring to this team.
- 53:42[SPEAKER_01]: and then all of a sudden you've got five true great guys across the line even what birds been playing better.
- 53:49[SPEAKER_01]: You get those five guys going and good luck to anybody across from them.
- 53:54[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 53:55[SPEAKER_02]: And the Atkins, two of those shadowed I saw in the chat to apprentice has been great for the Broncos.
- 54:01[SPEAKER_02]: So we're going to wrap it up, man, I'm so excited for this Broncos Packers game.
- 54:05[SPEAKER_02]: If anybody has a lead on a ticket, and you want me to have a live-in person narration of the game, I do one of those things where I say it before the commentators do all the time.
- 54:14[SPEAKER_02]: If that annoys you, don't invite me.
- 54:16[SPEAKER_02]: But let me know, because I would love to get out to this game, but I know the tickets are going for the crazy, because Packers are great.
- 54:25[SPEAKER_02]: But we'll see what happens.
- 54:26[SPEAKER_02]: We got Cody saying, get in-groom touches versus green bay.
- 54:34[SPEAKER_02]: They're so fast in athletic at the linebacker spot in Williams tackles so well, like for Ingram, he doesn't force them into heavier personnel packages and I don't know if he's running away from those guys right now.
- 54:48[SPEAKER_02]: I just I think I'd be a little bit more 11 personnel in this one with Chautman and if you are gonna play in the two-time, I think you'll get some usage from Ingram too, but maybe more so slot or some
- 55:00[SPEAKER_02]: maybe some H-back stuff even, but I'm not inviting bodies into the box with micoparsons, if possible.
- 55:08[SPEAKER_02]: Unless it's like a pure chip, but even then, you can have that chip there and you're expecting to go the outside and he doesn't.
- 55:13[SPEAKER_02]: So it's hard.
- 55:17[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's, he's a good player, but unfortunately he tips what you're gonna do too much.
- 55:27[SPEAKER_01]: And that's why you're seeing his nap count beat pretty 30, 40% every game right now.
- 55:34[SPEAKER_01]: And part of it is also just he hasn't been as great of a weapon as you were hoping.
- 55:40[SPEAKER_01]: The drops have been a problem.
- 55:41[SPEAKER_01]: He just hasn't been quite as engaged as you would like him to be.
- 55:45[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm not the biggest troutman fan, but right now he truly is our number one tight end.
- 55:54[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 55:55[SPEAKER_02]: Oh man, we'll see it should be a great game.
- 55:57[SPEAKER_02]: Ralph says, bro, most calling the game and rather listen to you, Nick Kendall, well, tell that to my wife.
- 56:02[SPEAKER_02]: No, it's a, it's a lot of fun.

- 56:50[SPEAKER_02]: Hopefully we'll keep the good vibes going here, but this packer's game.
- 56:54[SPEAKER_02]: So I know too Ashow, it's where over time, prediction, what's the score?
- 57:02[SPEAKER_01]: I honestly do think the Broncos are going to win this one.
- 57:05[SPEAKER_01]: Oh man, it's nervous.
- 57:09[SPEAKER_01]: No, I just have a feeling, like I said, Botanics is getting more confident.
- 57:13[SPEAKER_01]: I think he and Sean Peyton are on a very good page.
- 57:16[SPEAKER_01]: I think they're starting to see a few more things.
- 57:19[SPEAKER_01]: And I like the rotation they're doing with the different weapons and how they're trying to use each of them.
- 57:24[SPEAKER_01]: And I do think the run game will have a pretty successful game.
- 57:27[SPEAKER_01]: Like I said, they're a little light up front for Green Bay.
- 57:30[SPEAKER_01]: I think the Broncos completion people.
- 57:32[SPEAKER_01]: This is a great game for miners to get some movement going.
- 57:37[SPEAKER_01]: So I think the Broncos control things with it being a home game, that crowd's going to be loud.
- 57:43[SPEAKER_01]: Like I said, games, the tickets are going like crazy for, for price-wise, because everybody wants to go see this game.
- 57:49[SPEAKER_01]: And hopefully it's not a ton of Packers fans buying those tickets, but I think it's going to be enough.
- 57:55[SPEAKER_01]: And I think the Broncos win this one, I'm going to say, Broncos get to 24 Packers get to 20.
- 58:03[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, man, I hope so.
- 58:05[SPEAKER_02]: I hope so.
- 58:05[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to save mine.
- 58:06[SPEAKER_02]: I'm not ready to say.
- 58:09[SPEAKER_02]: I think I don't have the best record for the Broncos because I bet against them in the chief scheme, but not bit.
- 58:14[SPEAKER_02]: But I picked against them the chief scheme and the Cowboys game, but other than that, I've got them right this season.
- 58:20[SPEAKER_02]: I did pick them in the Colts game and they got that one.
- 58:23[SPEAKER_02]: I could, they lost that one, but other than that, you know.
- 58:25[SPEAKER_02]: So, but the Broncos keep winning and that's been great for us.
- 58:28[SPEAKER_02]: So, shout out everybody, shout out again.
- 58:29[SPEAKER_02]: We wanted to give a quick shout out again to David Gosh.
