- 0:28after a two -day free trial. And the divisional
- 0:58round is over. Now we're onto the conference
- 1:01games. In other news, I did awful. I did awful
- 1:08last week. I lost every single bet. And even
- 1:15after that, on Monday, I was like, well, of course,
- 1:18I'm going to bet on the national championship.
- 1:21And of course, I took Indiana minus seven and
- 1:23a half. They only won by six so It feels like
- 1:28every decision. I'm making is it is incorrect
- 1:32So I'm not quite sure what to do. I might do
- 1:37a little reverse You know what we'll we'll see
- 1:40how we're feeling once we get into these these
- 1:43these lone two games that we have for for this
- 1:48week. But before we kind of give a little recap
- 1:52of the games from last week, let's let's hear
- 1:56from the fellas. Chris, how did you do last week?
- 2:00Bad. Same as you just bad. Oh, and for pretty
- 2:06they all lost in pretty heartbreaking fashion.
- 2:12Except for Bill's first half that just never
- 2:15really had a chance. Um, yeah, just sad. And
- 2:19then I had Indiana my seven and a half last night
- 2:22or yeah. Yeah. Last night. Um, also had the over
- 2:26that hit. So, Oh, yippee. But yeah, I went one.
- 2:31So yeah, this whole weekend I've one in like
- 2:35six, because I also didn't give this out, talked
- 2:38about on the show. I didn't tweet it. Um, live
- 2:41bet the bears like three times. That, that loss,
- 2:46not full units. Most there are two half units.
- 2:49And then I did like a quarter unit or whatever
- 2:52at the start of overtime or at some point I did
- 2:55a quarter unit. I don't remember when exactly,
- 2:57but yeah, it was just pain, just nothing but
- 3:01pain. Everything hurts. Um, Sean, I think you
- 3:05feel the same. Uh -huh. Uh, I didn't want a single
- 3:10bet. Oh, all weekend. The only bet I won which
- 3:17I didn't give out was a DJ more touchdown in
- 3:22the Bears Rams game boosted Ended up losing all
- 3:29that live betting Bears money line with the fellas
- 3:33in the group chat because It was fun We had we
- 3:38had fun We had fun during the time. And for a
- 3:42moment, we thought, man, this is going to be
- 3:46awesome. But yeah, we had fun. But this weekend
- 3:51was not super fun from a betting standpoint.
- 3:55I'm trying to build this bankroll for the Super
- 3:58Bowl. And yeah, zero dollars in the account right
- 4:06now. We're not doing great. I still got a roof
- 4:11over my head. We're good. But yeah, I would really
- 4:17like to talk about these games though, because
- 4:20a lot of fuck shit went down. That was not chill.
- 4:28I did not know that both of you guys lost all
- 4:32of your bets as well. We had very similar cards
- 4:37Yeah, we did but like they weren't all they don't
- 4:42all the same I think to I know will you had the
- 4:48under and Patriots Whoever fuck Texans. Yeah,
- 4:53I had the Texans and Sean had the first half
- 4:56under obviously all three lost But I think those
- 4:59were the only that was the only game where we
- 5:01all had completely different picks Oh, well.
- 5:07Whatever. Anyway. Shitty minds think alike. Yeah.
- 5:12So let's talk about the games that we lost then.
- 5:15So the first game is Bill's Broncos. I guess
- 5:22I'll talk on the coach firing after that, but
- 5:25after towards the end, but I watched like the
- 5:31first quarter. then I went out of town and we
- 5:37went out to eat with my family and they had the
- 5:40game on at where we were at and so I watched
- 5:44the last quarter and overtime and man man that
- 5:52was uh do we do we just want to go dive right
- 5:55in to the the the call that was supposed to be
- 5:59a catch or I, we haven't really talked about
- 6:03this, but what, what are, what are y 'all's stances?
- 6:07I don't get how that wasn't a catch. And like
- 6:10in the moment I was like, cause stair tour, whoever
- 6:13the fuck it was explained it. And like the way
- 6:15he explained it, I was like, I think you're wrong,
- 6:17but whatever, if that's the rule, that's the
- 6:20rule. And then I forget, was it the, in the bears
- 6:26Rams game that like almost that exact same thing
- 6:29happened and they rolled it a catch. Yes. Yeah,
- 6:35well, it wasn't exactly the same. It was quite
- 6:39similar. Yeah, it was quite similar, but he was
- 6:42clearly down. Yeah. Or he clearly had possession
- 6:45of it. Brandon Cooks was like, I still don't
- 6:53know. Yeah, that's probably gonna haunt a lot
- 7:01of Bill's fans for eternity and Bill's betters
- 7:05for eternity in that matter but I'm not gonna
- 7:11say Whether it was a catch or not because I'm
- 7:15not an NFL expert. I'm not a referee but It seems
- 7:22like a very Homestand call I can say that, yeah.
- 7:32Well, they fired McDermott. When do we start
- 7:37having this conversation about Josh Allen? Maybe
- 7:40we can already start having it, but like, is
- 7:42this ever gonna work? Because like, yeah, the
- 7:46defense played like shit, especially in the second
- 7:48half. He was abysmal in that first half. Like,
- 7:52he wasn't CJ Stride level, but he was a fucking
- 7:56idiot. gave away three points at the end of the
- 8:00half. I don't know what the fuck that was. I've
- 8:05never seen that before. And it's like, is it
- 8:09ever going to like, I feel like everybody loves
- 8:12the guy, but is he, is this ever going to happen?
- 8:15I don't know, man. It I was listening to a podcast
- 8:19on the way home from work today. And essentially
- 8:22it was like, I think it's like since McDermott
- 8:27has been with the Bills, they have like the most
- 8:31wins in that in that time frame out of any other
- 8:35team in the NFL. And they have the most playoff
- 8:40wins because they've been to the playoffs and
- 8:42they've been to the AFC championship a number
- 8:44of times. I don't think they've ever won the
- 8:47one seed. So they've They've played one or two
- 8:54games to get to the AFC champ which they've only
- 8:56been to the AFC championship twice but it's like
- 9:00They they've won a playoff game every year essentially
- 9:03and it it's it's like My first thought was like
- 9:10what the fuck, you know, like why would they
- 9:13do this? But then when you think about it, it's
- 9:15like well Having there needs to be some sort
- 9:20of change and not doing anything is almost worse
- 9:25than not doing anything. I mean, I said that
- 9:32wrong. Then doing something is, you know what
- 9:37I mean. I'm not, I think you guys are. We know
- 9:41what you mean, but the listeners don't know what
- 9:44you mean. Right. So they needed to have some
- 9:46sort of change in order to potentially progress.
- 9:50And because as the way it stands like yeah, the
- 9:54roster wasn't that that good this year Didn't
- 9:56they win like 11 games 12 games? Well, I think
- 10:01yeah, like that's a great fucking year for anyone,
- 10:04you know, it's so It's like I get it but also
- 10:10like man She's great coach obviously and is that
- 10:15is that Josh Allen? We'll never know Well, actually
- 10:19we will know um, we should next year um, but
- 10:24the josh allen question, I mean They're like
- 10:33watching the last quarter like I forgot which
- 10:37tied in it was it was either concave or nox They're
- 10:40only two starting tight ends. Um When he hit
- 10:44him on that fade, uh, but it was like wide right,
- 10:49wide left by like two yards. And it's like, dude,
- 10:53if that guy catches that pass, he runs it in
- 10:56Bill's win. Like it's not. So. I think what you
- 11:03bring up, Chris is. Valid. But also. He he's
- 11:10he got him there. You know, so. I mean, it's
- 11:15going to come to a point and maybe. Already be
- 11:17at that point. That's just not, I mean, I guess
- 11:19it is the fire, the coach. That's not enough.
- 11:23Like this is. Like we talked about last week,
- 11:27like how, like this is being handed to them because
- 11:32like all the superpowers of the AFC are having
- 11:36down years. They didn't make it. It's like this,
- 11:39I don't want to say changing of the guard, but
- 11:41it's like, you've got to capitalize now. And
- 11:43they just pissed on their leg again. So it's,
- 11:48I don't know. Yeah. Um, yeah, I mean, they lost,
- 11:53but I don't know if like, yeah, they turned it
- 11:56like he turned the ball over a bunch, but four
- 11:59times, four times. They still went to overtime.
- 12:03You turn the ball over four times and you go
- 12:05to overtime. That's still something to like,
- 12:07I mean, it's really nothing to hang your hat
- 12:10on, but like it's, you were still right there.
- 12:14It ain't nothing. It ain't nothing and he did
- 12:18keep them in it for what it's worth. Oh, yeah,
- 12:22like he was the only reason that game was close,
- 12:25but it was also like, OK, he's a decent. He shares
- 12:30a large majority of the blame for. That for them
- 12:35not winning the game, so it's it's like, OK,
- 12:37yes, it's just hard to, I don't know, get a read
- 12:41on why. I mean, obviously they're. They fire
- 12:44the coach. They're keeping him, but like how
- 12:47many more times can this happen? And they're
- 12:49just like, well, get him again next year, Josh.
- 12:52Well, it's easier to fire. It's easier to fire
- 12:55your coach to trade your $300 million quarterback.
- 13:00Even though like some team probably would do
- 13:03it, but that's a lot of that's a lot of money.
- 13:07It's easy to just. Let your guy walk and you
- 13:12know. end up paying him till 2052 or whatever.
- 13:18But. There's no way they can let Joe Brady leave
- 13:21the facility, right? Oh, I don't know. I feel
- 13:27like that that could be like if they do end up
- 13:31hiring him, that could be like like, oh, we really
- 13:35want to keep this guy being Brady. Like, and
- 13:39he's, he's leaving after this. He's like being
- 13:41a head coach after this season, regardless, might
- 13:44as well make him our head coach. Like this is
- 13:47clearly wasn't working out. I was like, well,
- 13:49I'm working out, but they couldn't get over the
- 13:50hump with McDermott. So if they, yeah, that could
- 13:56be cool, but I want David to be Titans OC. I'm
- 14:00hearing some noise that maybe Mike McDaniels.
- 14:05I saw he, uh, He canceled his interview with
- 14:10Cleveland on sometime this week. Awesome. We'll
- 14:15talk about that later. Let's not get distracted.
- 14:21We got a lot of stuff to cover. This was probably
- 14:26the worst roster that they've had in the last
- 14:31five years, the Bills. I don't know. you know
- 14:36I hate to be like oh he needs a better supporting
- 14:38cast but he got him all the way here so it's
- 14:43it's like he does but you know how how much can
- 14:49that play into effect here um I don't know I'm
- 14:52just rambling at this point anyway next game
- 14:54uh 49ers at Seahawks I did not watch this game
- 14:58um I was uh having family time also I had the
- 15:02under so I was like You know this this won't
- 15:05be electric what one of these teams won't score
- 15:09over 40 points But that's what happened and I
- 15:15lost my bet but I did I saw a couple clips I
- 15:20mean, I saw that ton just clip about he just
- 15:23was running and then Blew out something in his
- 15:27leg and it was like well They say the non -contact
- 15:31injuries are the worst ones And also, like the
- 15:36Seahawks starting the game with a kickoff return
- 15:41for a touchdown. So I really don't have much
- 15:44to say, but what insight can you guys have? BTA,
- 15:52belt to ass. Seahawks are probably winning the
- 15:56Super Bowl this year. Yeah, that was... That
- 16:00was just from bell to bell. That was just shit
- 16:02kicking. Yeah. Like San Francisco never did any,
- 16:06like they had a couple drives where it was like,
- 16:08Oh, this might be something here. And then like
- 16:11interception turnip, like fumble. It's like something
- 16:13they would fuck it up somehow. And yeah, Seahawks
- 16:17defense is fucking insane. And there was nothing
- 16:21they could do about it. I mean, like absolutely
- 16:24nothing. Yeah. I mean, they just lined up and
- 16:27said, we're going to beat the shit out of you.
- 16:29Like for every second of this football game Would
- 16:34I have liked to see this team the 49ers I mean
- 16:38completely healthy versus the Seahawks team absolutely
- 16:42Seahawks probably still win by 17 if you're playing
- 16:47the exact like same game Yeah, Seahawks just
- 16:51kind of just really laid it on him. I mean It
- 16:55wasn't even fair it was like I don't even know
- 17:00what analogy to compare this to, but it was just
- 17:05an ass beating up to down. Like left to right,
- 17:10sideways, upside down. Doesn't matter. Fucking
- 17:15belt to ass, dude. They were not chill. Doesn't
- 17:21matter, baby. Kaboom. Future Super Bowl MVP Sam
- 17:25Darnold. There is granted if that game if they
- 17:29play like that in the Super Bowl He's not gonna
- 17:31get it'll be some someone on defense, but right
- 17:35saying Right I Really don't have anything else
- 17:40I mean there's nothing really to say like it
- 17:43was just some it was yeah, definitely the most
- 17:45like boring game of the weekend this would Sam
- 17:50Darnold was the only quarterback that wasn't
- 17:53allergic to turning over the ball this weekend.
- 17:58Yeah. Pretty much. Gotcha. So the the next game
- 18:05the Texans at the Patriots. Man, like, I was
- 18:12only able to watch half the game I was I was
- 18:13driving for the first half, but like, just some
- 18:20of the most sloppy shit I've ever seen on a on
- 18:24a football field, you know. And it's like, really
- 18:28on both sides. I mean, a couple of forced fumbles
- 18:31both ways. I didn't strout throw four interceptions
- 18:33like five. Five. Yeah. So like, and they had
- 18:38in the first half. Yeah. And they had like two
- 18:41fumbles or at least one other one fumble, maybe
- 18:44the second one. But yeah. Yeah. Man. That one
- 18:52sucked. That one sucked. having, having the under
- 18:55in that one. That was, that was not fun. Drake
- 18:58may he's kind of getting a free, like you were
- 19:00saying, like he had two fumbles and did he throw
- 19:04a pick? I don't remember, but like he didn't
- 19:06play very well at all either. Like see the Texans
- 19:10had six or seven turnovers. It was a one possession
- 19:12game in the fourth quarter. That doesn't happen.
- 19:16Yeah. Yeah. That Texans defense is great. I mean,
- 19:22that's great. But yeah, like if CJ Stroud just
- 19:28wasn't a complete moron, I mean, we we gripe
- 19:34on Ryan Tannehill's Bengals performance in the
- 19:37divisional round, throwing three interceptions.
- 19:39Shit, man. Hangs his performance in the Louvre
- 19:43compared to CJ Stroud. CJ Stroud throws three
- 19:47interceptions. They win that football game. I
- 19:53mean, that was just, yeah. I hate that when we
- 19:58were talking about the game last week, I said
- 20:00it as long, because I was talking about how terrible
- 20:01he was the week before. I said, if Stroud can
- 20:04just be competent, they win this game. And I
- 20:09mean, that was the furthest thing from competent
- 20:10I think I've ever seen. He might have just like
- 20:17single -handedly shown that he's not like a franchise
- 20:21QB. I too. Yeah. Yeah. You can't, you can't do
- 20:28that in the divisional round. You can't do that.
- 20:32And he played like shit though, we against the
- 20:34Steelers too. So it wasn't like, this was just
- 20:36like a one -off. I mean, he hasn't really had
- 20:37a tremendous year in any way, but excuse me.
- 20:41He was awful against Pittsburgh. Like didn't
- 20:43he have like five fumbles or something like that?
- 20:46Not all of them ended in turnovers, but he fumbled
- 20:49a lot. So, I mean, I don't know what, you got
- 20:56to run it back with them, but like, I mean, I
- 21:00don't know why they didn't put in Davis Mills.
- 21:02Cause like, I know the joke is like, oh, he's
- 21:05goofy looking. He's not very good, but he's like,
- 21:08not like the war, like he can play football.
- 21:11He has started many games for this team. He's
- 21:16won games for the team many this season. Yes.
- 21:20So that's why I always bring back Davis Mills.
- 21:25I mean, straight, he just looked like he was
- 21:27lost out there. Like you just look at it on his
- 21:29face. I mean, obviously he was having probably
- 21:31the worst day of his life, but he's miserable.
- 21:37So I was like, this is a mercy killing at this
- 21:39point. Take this kid out of the game. Yeah. That's,
- 21:44uh, not a good showing, but, uh, but moving on
- 21:48Rams bears. I had the over. That game was supposed
- 21:52to rock. It did rock. It did. First off, don't
- 21:57say supposed to. It did. It just, I get what
- 22:00you mean. It definitely could have been better.
- 22:02The Bears left a lot of points on the field.
- 22:05So it definitely could have been a lot better
- 22:06in terms of like scoring, but it could have rocked
- 22:09harder. It was still a very, it was definitely
- 22:12the most entertaining. I'd say definitely. Bill's
- 22:14Broncos was awesome, but I would say it was the
- 22:17most entertaining game of the week in my opinion.
- 22:19It wasn't conventionally rocking by, by the standard
- 22:26set on over betters. Um, but, uh, but, but yeah,
- 22:32that, um, man, it's, uh, it's, it's kind of like,
- 22:37like if the bears won this game, they weren't
- 22:42going to win the super bowl. We don't know that.
- 22:46I mean, who's to say. I mean, probably not. Yeah,
- 22:49but like, I mean, look, kind of what's going
- 22:52like, Jared Stidham is starting for the Broncos.
- 22:56Like, the Bears win this game. I mean, Sam Donald,
- 23:01there's a few picks you go to the Super Bowl,
- 23:03potentially face Jared Stidham. Stiddy. God.
- 23:11I don't know. It's just like. a team rarely ever
- 23:17just like goes from being bad and then wins the
- 23:20Super Bowl is kind of just what I'm alluding
- 23:23to here. So it's that was my mindset. And, you
- 23:30know, obviously one of the bears to win because,
- 23:32you know, I don't have I don't have a dog in
- 23:35this fight. So I crave chaos. If any if any sports
- 23:39fan doesn't have a dog in a fight, you should
- 23:40crave chaos. That's at least how my my dad lives
- 23:45his life. Anyway, um, but, uh, but yeah, that,
- 23:50um, that last touchdown by Caleb Williams, I
- 23:54can't believe that worked. That was, that play
- 23:58was so dead. That play was so like immediately
- 24:02like a miracle. Like as soon as he touched the
- 24:06ball, there were five guys like right in his
- 24:08kitchen. Yeah. And how much like this like games
- 24:11over. Fuck this. and then I was about to just
- 24:14like turn away and then he heaves I was like
- 24:17there's no fucking way I can't keep doing this
- 24:22that was it was amazing that was insane um man
- 24:28it was just like it from the outside you know
- 24:33we're not bears fans but at least from my perspective
- 24:36it's like if you're a bears fan like yeah you're
- 24:39hurting for like a week And probably the next
- 24:42week, but like, did you got the future is yours?
- 24:48Like you, you've got something to be excited
- 24:50about. Oh, yeah. You were one play, whatever
- 24:55you want to call it away from an NFC championship
- 24:58appearance and with first year head coach. Like
- 25:02you're like three years ahead of schedule right
- 25:04now. Yeah. Uh, so I mean, dude, if they, uh,
- 25:09they beef up their defense a little bit. Maybe
- 25:11get another wide receiver or you know your quarterback
- 25:16has a nickname now. That's pretty sick What what's
- 25:21that ice man, oh he does I didn't know that yeah,
- 25:24that's what they're calling him. Oh, that's what
- 25:26they're calling. Um Their defense played great
- 25:30in that game, too I was I thought they were gonna
- 25:33get torched and it looked like in the first half
- 25:34they might but Yeah, they I mean they were getting
- 25:38after Stafford was rattled they had the stat
- 25:43it was like he completed his first like seven
- 25:45and then went like one of nine like the rest
- 25:48of the first half or something like that yeah
- 25:52that uh i don't know that one is like what's
- 25:58going on here doesn't doesn't dome boy doesn't
- 26:01like the cold well yeah can't blame him it was
- 26:05like five degrees oh yeah yeah i'm freezing I
- 26:10would, you could not have, that's not true. I,
- 26:12if I was like the biggest bears fan, I'd be like,
- 26:15you know what? I'm just going to couch it for
- 26:17this one. I'm going to go tarps off in a soldier
- 26:21field right now. Um, but yeah, those were, uh,
- 26:26I mean, that's essentially all the games. Um,
- 26:28we touched on it a little bit, but we forgot
- 26:30to mention that, uh, that Bo nicks the second
- 26:34to last play of the game out with an injury.
- 26:38Jared Stidham is now in. That's brutal that is
- 26:43brutal it sucks and like I'm I'm looking at uh,
- 26:49I'm looking at the remaining teams left and I'm
- 26:51like Then I don't think this Super Bowl is gonna
- 26:55be any good. I don't know, bro I might you know,
- 27:00that's a very casual way of you know a casuals
- 27:04way of of analyzing a Super Bowl, but like with
- 27:07like the quarterbacks but like, I don't know,
- 27:11brother. Does that make sense? Yeah. If the Broncos
- 27:15win, yeah, it's going to be pretty rough. Um,
- 27:20I kind of hope they do just as a Seahawks future
- 27:22holder, but yeah, you could, you could definitely
- 27:27like, if it's Seahawks, Broncos, you can be like
- 27:31Sam Darrell, Jared Stidham for all the Marvels.
- 27:34Yippee. Even though those are like even If Bo
- 27:38Nix is playing, it's still like these are the
- 27:40two best defenses in football. That's what should
- 27:42be talked about. But yeah, you can. There's definitely
- 27:45going to be a lot of pissed off people on Twitter,
- 27:47probably regardless of how this weekend gets.
- 27:50Right. He didn't seem to hurt, though. He walked
- 27:55off the field, Bo Nix. It's got to be adrenaline.
- 28:01Adrenaline. Adrenaline. Yeah, I guess. Plus those
- 28:04players have those their ankles like all. taped
- 28:07up and stuff. Probably couldn't really even notice.
- 28:13Sean Payton too. Like when he, I don't really
- 28:16feel simply for him. I think he's kind of a scumbag,
- 28:18but when he came back out there and it was like,
- 28:22yeah, Bo broke his ankle. Um, you could just
- 28:25say it was like, man, we're fucked. Yeah. I don't
- 28:30know. They might have something hiding there,
- 28:33hiding there in the old city. Supposed to be
- 28:37Tom Brady's successor, so. Like eight years ago,
- 28:43yeah. I don't know the handsome. He's a handsome
- 28:49fella. He's got I think I think he's got the
- 28:51potential to. Pull some tricks. Oh yeah, they're
- 28:56not dead, but I don't think they're completely
- 28:59dead. I think we could be looking at another
- 29:02like. Nick Foles situation. You know, you seem
- 29:07to eat after the game. Nick Foles. Oh, yeah.
- 29:11The Patriots have struggled against backup quarterbacks
- 29:14in these spots before. Yep. He's not wrong. He's
- 29:19not. No. Keep your head up, Jared. Go Broncos.
- 29:26Go Broncos. All right. I mean, do we want to
- 29:29get into the two games? I guess so. Okay. I mean,
- 29:38if you guys want to, I guess we can. All right.
- 29:43Well, let's get it going. AFC championship game.
- 29:47Hey, New England Patriots at the Broncos in Denver
- 29:50in Milehive. Broncos are home underdogs by five
- 29:54and a half points over under is 42 and a half.
- 30:00Pats, obviously. looked pretty sloppy against
- 30:03the Texans. But they pulled out the win against
- 30:06one of the best defenses in the NFL. Broncos,
- 30:11obviously going in with a really good team and
- 30:16a really good win against the Bills pulling it
- 30:19out at the last second. But unfortunately, they
- 30:23have to play Jared Sidum. Chris, I'm going to
- 30:24throw this to you first. I'm taking the under
- 30:2842 and a half. I guess you could say hopping
- 30:31off the Patriots hate train. Um, I thought about
- 30:34taking Patriots minus five and a half, but I
- 30:36think everybody and their mother's going to bet
- 30:38that, uh, just because it's Jared Stidham and
- 30:41Drake may like, how can they possibly like keep
- 30:45this within two or three touchdowns? But I mean,
- 30:48touched on earlier, Drake may did not. Really
- 30:50look that great. He made a few really good throws,
- 30:53but he Looked like the lights may have been too
- 30:56bright there for a little bit Broncos got really
- 30:58good fucking defense, too so I I think both offenses
- 31:04struggle plus it's in Denver in Late January
- 31:07up. It's probably I didn't look up the weather
- 31:09by assume. It's going to be balls cold So yeah
- 31:13under 42 and a half. I think it's gonna be kind
- 31:15of a rock fight Sean what you got? So it's not
- 31:20gonna be balls cold Denver doesn't get like that
- 31:23cold in the winter. It's weird It's gonna be
- 31:26like really five degrees. Yeah, it is weird Remember
- 31:31they're the Sunshine State John Denver City by
- 31:36the Bay It is true that Denver does get the most
- 31:41sunlight out of any US state because they're
- 31:45they're closest to the Sun correct But I'm going
- 31:53Denver plus five and a half. I think Bo Nix's
- 31:58injury is worth more than a touchdown spread,
- 32:02to be honest. But I think if you replace Bo Nix
- 32:09with Jared Stidham with Denver's passing game
- 32:13and their elite defense, this spread feels Correct
- 32:18and Jared Stidham Really isn't that much of a
- 32:22downgrade. I mean he's been with this team for
- 32:24what like two years now is the backup He knows
- 32:28this defense or he knows this system and Patriots
- 32:34I feel like They could struggle in the high altitude
- 32:39with this elite defense as well I mean they struggled
- 32:43versus Houston last week and Houston basically
- 32:45gave that game away so Yeah, just thin air, coaching
- 32:53edge. It's really not much more than that, to
- 32:58be honest. So give me the Broncos plus five and
- 33:02a half. Will, what you got? So everything in
- 33:07my brain is telling me to take the Patriots.
- 33:11I feel like they have the better team, the better
- 33:13overall team. They're facing Jared Stidham, career
- 33:16backup QB. And it just kind of feels like the
- 33:21Patriots are back on their reign, their championship
- 33:28reign. They're getting that train back on the
- 33:31track. However, every decision I've made the
- 33:35past week, and you could even extend that to
- 33:39the week before, where I only won two out of
- 33:42like six bets. So I'm taking the Broncos. I'm
- 33:45taking Broncos plus five and a half. I think
- 33:49that Myla is a really hard place to play. I think
- 33:53that Sean Baton is a better coach. And the Patriots
- 33:57have never won in Denver, or at least the last
- 34:01four times they've been to Denver. Look that
- 34:03up. Or you can believe me. But, but yeah, I I'm
- 34:11I like the Broncos. I love the Patriots, but
- 34:13I like the Broncos and I'm picking the Broncos.
- 34:17Kind of a Costanza pick. I was going to say a
- 34:20playoff Costanza. Yeah, well, I don't blame you.
- 34:23I thought about doing the same thing. This is
- 34:25where we are now. Listen, every I'm I've been
- 34:28terrible, just terrible. I did bet two college
- 34:33basketball games today for a very, very small
- 34:35amount of what was left of my bankroll. Throw
- 34:39in four in the playoffs in Denver, by the way.
- 34:41There it is. Boom. Love it even more. So there
- 34:45you go. Broncos plus five and a half. Moving
- 34:49on to the next game, the Rams at the Seahawks
- 34:52NFC Championship game. The Seahawks are home
- 34:56favorites by two and a half points. The over
- 34:58under is forty seven and a half. Let's see. The
- 35:04Rams able to squeak one out against the Cardiac
- 35:07Bears. the Seahawks put an absolute pummeling
- 35:11on the 49ers, a beat up 49ers team. Sean, I'm
- 35:20gonna let you take this one first. All right,
- 35:25I'm going Seahawks minus two and a half chalk
- 35:28pick, but I think it's the right one. Seattle's
- 35:32been pretty dominant at home. In the playoffs
- 35:36since 2005, they're at 11 and two straight up.
- 35:41On top of that, I think Seattle's just playing
- 35:43like the best ball right now, just down the stretch.
- 35:47They're allowing just, they allowed just 44 points
- 35:51to non -RAMS opponents in their last seven games
- 35:54at home while forcing 15 turnovers. Mike McDonald's
- 35:59defense, I think this is the best unit. In the
- 36:04NFL right now And I like their front seven to
- 36:08force Matt Stafford to make mistakes to win this
- 36:11ballgame God man this game It's what I wanted
- 36:18but I Feel like it's gonna be another belt to
- 36:22ass to be honest Yeah Seahawks minus two and
- 36:26a half. Well, what you got? I Love the Rams in
- 36:31this game I'm not a Sam Darnold believer. I recognize
- 36:37their defense, but I also recognize on the Rams
- 36:41that they've been here before. It wasn't too
- 36:45long ago where they won the Super Bowl. It feels
- 36:48like Matt Stafford, now that he has all his receivers
- 36:51back, he's got something he can unlock in his
- 36:57brain where he can go super saiyan. I don't know.
- 37:02And it just feels like whenever they won that
- 37:09first Super Bowl, everyone was like, is Matt
- 37:12Stafford a Hall of Famer? Is Matt Stafford a
- 37:14Hall of Famer? Well, I personally think yes.
- 37:19Certainly after that first Super Bowl win. A
- 37:22lot of people don't, just because he spent so
- 37:25much time in Detroit. So I love the Rams. But
- 37:30I'm Costanzing this week. So I'm taking the Seahawks
- 37:33minus two and a half. The Seahawks are it's such
- 37:38a hard place to play. Lumen field like, like
- 37:42goddamn. That shit is the loudest. I watched
- 37:46a whole 30 minute YouTube video one time when
- 37:49I was in audio school in college, just learning
- 37:52about how how the fucking how it's it's made
- 37:56of like steel. It's made of like a more more
- 38:01resonant kind of frequency type of of material
- 38:05to make it louder. It's crazy. And I mean, truth
- 38:11be told, I just haven't this haven't Sam Dardle
- 38:13in the Super Bowl is the exact opposite of what
- 38:16I want. So I'm picking them. Because that's that's
- 38:21I feel like that's the only way I can win a bet
- 38:23here. So Seahawks minus two and a half. Chris?
- 38:28Yeah, clean sweep. Why would I not bet Seahawks
- 38:31minus two and a half? Dance with the horse you
- 38:34rode in on or whatever the hell. I've rode them
- 38:37this far. Let's write a couple more weeks. Let's
- 38:41get us a soupy. Yeah, Seahawks minus two and
- 38:45a half. I do think they are just a better team.
- 38:47I think they have a... A much better defense
- 38:49at Ram's defense touched on it last week. They
- 38:52kind of been struggling, but they gave up 20
- 38:53points again. Um, I don't know. Should you give
- 38:58up 20 points to this offense with the way the
- 39:01defense is playing? I don't know if you're winning
- 39:03this game. So, uh, yeah. See, awesome. That's
- 39:05two and a half. Let's go to the ball. Sam Donald,
- 39:08future Superbowl MVP. All right. Jared Stidham
- 39:13versus Sam Donald. Maybe. I hope I mean I hope
- 39:20comes comes out of the at least as a sicko myself
- 39:25yes I fucking love it yeah but I can get how
- 39:29most football fan nine most casual football fans
- 39:33be like yeah fuck this right yeah okay well think
- 39:38about like well I know this isn't true for like
- 39:43our group I guess but like Just think about like
- 39:47the common American that's just like oh the Super
- 39:49Bowls tonight. Who's playing? Oh It's a they
- 39:53don't even know, you know, yeah. Yeah, so it's
- 39:56like it doesn't even matter But yeah, it's sickos
- 40:00like us but sickos like us are like this would
- 40:03be awesome. So Yes, this is an odd that would
- 40:06be an awesome matchup There is a slight chance
- 40:11because Sam Donald apparently has an oblique
- 40:12injury, which I don't know like when that could
- 40:14have happened because, but, um, I mean, we, I
- 40:18don't want this to happen to my precious redhead
- 40:21boy, but if he gets hurt in the Broncos and they
- 40:26win in the Broncos when Jared Stedham drew lock.
- 40:30That would be disgusting. Just a couple mediocre
- 40:36SCC quarterbacks. Man, there'd be so, so many
- 40:41run plays in that, in that Super Bowl. They'd
- 40:44be running the ball so much. I haven't seen Jarrison
- 40:48and playing a long time. I remember Drew Locke
- 40:50at times. I mean, he's kind of a whoopsie daisy
- 40:53guy, but he's, he's pretty electric. Yes. Yeah.
- 40:57Drew Locke has had a couple of moments where
- 40:59it's like, Oh, yeah. Yeah. Broncos legend, Drew
- 41:04Locke. That's true. Yes. Will, you brought up
- 41:11something that I'm now blanking on. You said
- 41:15something in passing that I was like, ooh, we
- 41:18should talk about that. But now I'm forgetting.
- 41:21The stadium? No. I don't know. Where's the rewind
- 41:30button? Was I talking about this game? It was
- 41:38about oh it was a Stafford Hall of Fame. Oh,
- 41:43yeah, that's what it was If he wins another Super
- 41:49Bowl and he gets Super Bowl MVP He's definitely
- 41:53a Hall of Fame candidate yeah, like no doubt
- 41:56represent and I Just want that to be said but
- 42:01if he hadn't spent so long in Detroit he would
- 42:06probably have two or three under his belt already.
- 42:11I think so. Super balls. Super balls. Cause man,
- 42:17this guy's good. And he's been good for a long
- 42:21time. Yeah. The fact that he's still good is
- 42:24like, like we can still have this guy. He's probably
- 42:27going to win MVP. And honestly, I think if he
- 42:29wins MVP, I think he's probably getting in regardless
- 42:32of what happens on Sunday. Has he won MVP before?
- 42:38No, because nobody from the Lions will ever win
- 42:41MVP. He was in the conversation a couple of those
- 42:45years with Evan Johnson. But yeah, I don't think
- 42:52he ever won it. Fair. I mean, it's the Lions.
- 42:58I don't mean to throw shit on the lines there.
- 43:00That was nobody from that era. Nobody from pre
- 43:03-Dan Campbell. The Lions ever really had a chance
- 43:08to do anything. Lions were catching strays there
- 43:12for a sec. Pre -Dan Campbell Lions. Lions now,
- 43:16obviously we love them. They're they're electric.
- 43:19But yeah, before that. Love the Lions. All right,
- 43:26well. The the Titans hired Robert salah, let's
- 43:32get into it Did you not want to get into it?
- 43:36No, let's get into it because we're gonna be
- 43:38over it. Take a seat get your popcorn We're gonna
- 43:41be here for a sec. All right, so I'm saying so
- 43:44mighty my immediate thoughts were No, no, no,
- 43:49no, no however Hey, those are my immediate thoughts
- 43:54and then I thought about it for a second. Okay
- 43:57I thought about it. I had to think about it.
- 44:02Then it's like, okay, well, he was the DC in
- 44:05San Francisco. I mean, if they weren't banged
- 44:10up, we could be having a different conversation
- 44:13right now about who's in the NFC championship
- 44:15game and who's going to the Superbowl. But even
- 44:20with that, I mean, like the Niners defense was...
- 44:24pretty dang good this whole this whole season.
- 44:27And like, yeah, I'm, I'm also like, you know,
- 44:32when I when I said that, you know, immediately
- 44:34thought immediate thoughts like, no, no, no,
- 44:36it's because you you automatically go back to
- 44:38when he was head coach at the Jets. And it's
- 44:40like, I don't know if you should even count.
- 44:44Jets had some of the Jets head coaches, you know,
- 44:47like, it feels like the Jets truly are a cursed
- 44:52franchise. Like, like, like, there's not like
- 44:57there's literally nothing they can do. That's,
- 45:00that's how it feels, at least from the the outside.
- 45:02But at least for me. But, but yeah, I'm, you
- 45:07know, I'm optimistic, I'm cautiously optimistic,
- 45:09as you know, as we are as Titans fans. I do like
- 45:13however, he had he had some quote, and he was
- 45:16like, the slogan going into next season is all
- 45:19gas, no breaks. And I'm like, All right. Let's
- 45:24ride. So that's what I got. Bill Murray fan?
- 45:30Question mark? Potentially a Jacob Fatu fan.
- 45:34Anyway. My immediate thought was, thank God,
- 45:42it wasn't Nagy. Yes. Yes. That was my immediate
- 45:46thought. At least it wasn't Matt Nagy. I don't
- 45:52know how true this is because I saw it on the
- 45:54internet, but I heard. That Amy Adams pulled
- 46:01an audible and was like, you need to hire solid
- 46:05and not Nike. Cause, uh, RGM, uh, I can never
- 46:13say his name. Right. Can someone. I can never
- 46:17say his name. Right. Yeah. Him and Nagy are buddies
- 46:25and he wanted to hire his friend, which, God,
- 46:30the Tennessee Titans are no fucking stranger
- 46:32to that. And she apparently pulled some kind
- 46:37of audible and was like, no, you need to hire
- 46:40Sala if you're going to hire anybody. So if that's
- 46:45the type of interference that the owner is getting
- 46:48into, I know we've kind of Ran her name through
- 46:51the mud this year, last year, past seven years,
- 46:57however long she's been the owner of this team.
- 47:02That's fine. That's cool with me, because nobody
- 47:05wanted him. Nobody wanted this guy. Yeah. Yeah.
- 47:10No other team wants him. The Chiefs are like,
- 47:15get him out of here. Yeah. The chiefs fans are
- 47:18like, please take him. And we're like, no, we
- 47:21don't want him either. Did you did you see that
- 47:23they requested to interview Eric B enemy, the
- 47:28chiefs for. Oh, back to him being OC. I thought
- 47:33you were going to say we did. I was like, take
- 47:35everything back about Amy. You just said if she
- 47:38was like, yeah, let's get this clown in here.
- 47:41No, no, the chiefs, they were like, OK, this
- 47:45guy back. I don't know what you're doing now.
- 47:49He was, uh, he was, um, I want to say he went.
- 47:54He was the OC for UCLA blast last year. Definitely
- 47:59not this year. I think the year before that he
- 48:01was like the OC at, uh, at, um, the commanders.
- 48:06Yeah. He was something with the commanders. He
- 48:09was their OC. He went there. Um, like he will
- 48:13have Kansas city to go there. I think it was.
- 48:16Was that Ron Rivera? I think it was, but, um,
- 48:19shit. Seems like kind of, Oh, he's the, he's
- 48:23the running backs coach for the bears right now.
- 48:25So he is in the NFL still. So, but yeah, last
- 48:29time I saw him, he was OC for the, for UCLA and
- 48:33they sucked. But, um, yeah, just with Sala though,
- 48:40it's like, meh. Okay. At least it wasn't Nagy.
- 48:43That was probably my. my initial reaction and
- 48:46I was like, okay, you better hire a hell of an
- 48:48OC because this guy clearly knows defense, but
- 48:52we, our offense needs some work. So you better
- 48:56get a hell of an OC. What I will say about, cause
- 49:02I kind of woke up to this news. Like I think
- 49:06I went to sleep before this was announced. It
- 49:10broke at like 11 o 'clock Monday night. Yeah
- 49:15and everyone's obviously like off the national
- 49:22championship or whatever and going to bed and
- 49:26you wake up and it's not the top news you see
- 49:29you know when you wake up. Salah has never had
- 49:35a lower than top seven defense in the league.
- 49:43as a DC or a head coach. Oh, that's pretty cool.
- 49:48That's pretty impressive. I like that a lot for
- 49:51sure. Will that change with the way the Titans
- 49:56defense is now structured? Who knows? I think
- 50:03they've got a lot of building to do on defense
- 50:06for sure. I just hope that we can keep him for
- 50:17a little while and not panic when, when things
- 50:22aren't going so well because after a year and
- 50:24a half, like, yeah, it's cause you're just, you're
- 50:27just right back where you started. And we're,
- 50:30we're another three years away from doing anything
- 50:33if you do that. Uh, but I hope he hires his friend,
- 50:39Mike McDaniel. That'd be pretty tight as I see
- 50:43I've been seeing a lot of things on X about McDaniel
- 50:50coming here and it's getting me too excited and
- 50:54I know that as the Titans franchise, we don't
- 50:57get anything that good Yes, we don't expectations
- 51:03we don't I mean like when no we don't John percent
- 51:06correct when John Harborough was fired it was
- 51:08just like oh shit we should Get John Harbour.
- 51:11I was like no shit, but we don't get anything
- 51:13that good Yeah, like we don't mix and like Okay,
- 51:18but like everyone was in the mix No, but it was
- 51:22between it was with us and the guys and then
- 51:24it was just like The Giants came in in the dead
- 51:27of night at 2 a .m. And we're like, hey, we're
- 51:30hiring him if the the day before he's going to
- 51:33meet with the Titans He didn't even get to meet
- 51:35with Titans. Oh before they didn't know before
- 51:38they hired him Yeah. He, that's how it kind of
- 51:40like, I don't want to say broke, but that was
- 51:41like the first thing because he canceled his
- 51:44interview with us and it was like, Oh shit. Well,
- 51:46he's definitely going to the giants then. Yeah.
- 51:50And I, I'm going to be honest. Like when I first
- 51:57saw the news, it was, thank God it's not naggy.
- 52:00I'm still not happy, but I think this is a really,
- 52:06the more that I like sit on it. and it's not
- 52:08even been 24 hours. But the more that I sit on
- 52:11it, the more I kind of like it. Because it's
- 52:17a defensive minded coach. I like that, even though
- 52:21we had a defensive minded coach, and now he's
- 52:24in the AFC championship. But that's neither here
- 52:29nor there. But we've obviously had success with
- 52:33that. Yeah, that's exactly what I was gonna say.
- 52:36Sorry. Yeah, we've had success with defensive
- 52:40minded coaches before. I think this gives him
- 52:44a better, I think this gives him a second chance.
- 52:49What he did with the Jets was passable for the
- 52:52Jets, for what the Jets were, I will say. They
- 52:57didn't make the playoffs, but they looked, they
- 53:01were right, weren't they? Didn't they beat the
- 53:03Bills? Was he the head coach with Aaron Rodgers
- 53:07his first year? Yeah Well his second year. Well,
- 53:13yes cuz he was well Aaron Rodgers first year
- 53:16Yeah, cuz they fired they fired They hired um
- 53:22the first game the the Lions defensive corner
- 53:24that this was his first year there So yeah, he
- 53:28was there. He was there two years ago so You
- 53:33have Sala who's like Oh, I would get, I'm getting
- 53:36Aaron Rogers and then he tears his Achilles in
- 53:38the first game and he's like, Oh, I gotta go
- 53:40to Zach Wilson. And they still won like seven
- 53:42games or something. Yeah, they weren't like,
- 53:45they weren't terrible. Like, that was the whole
- 53:48thing. Like Aaron Rogers, like, Oh, I'm walking
- 53:50up walking. Now I can maybe come back and they're
- 53:52like, shit, if they make a playoff run, he could.
- 53:56So yeah, they're, they're in the mix. Obviously
- 53:58they didn't make it, but they were in the mix
- 54:00there at the end of the season with Zach Wilson.
- 54:03Yeah. Yeah, that is right. Also, I think Sam
- 54:08Darnold was his quarterback his first year. I
- 54:13don't remember. Maybe. But I can't. I have a
- 54:19hard time keeping track of the revolving door
- 54:21of just quarterbacks. When it lines up with the
- 54:25coach, which is also a revolving door. I will
- 54:32say He does look like a leader of men You know,
- 54:38you know what I mean? I don't mean built like
- 54:41a brick shithouse. Yeah He also hates Liam Cohen
- 54:44Yes, that's exciting. That's awesome. Like they
- 54:48hate each other. So that's they're about to throw
- 54:51hands Yeah in that one game. Give me some of
- 54:55that Give me that That's gonna be that's gonna
- 55:02be awesome Yeah. Other I'm sure I'll have more
- 55:10immediate thoughts. If you'll have anything else.
- 55:14I mean, I think he just passes the eyeball test
- 55:19in terms of like, you know, like variable was
- 55:23a big guy, you know, and like this guy's a big
- 55:26guy, which means people, you know, he's not a
- 55:28fat guy. You know, like Was it a Freddy kitchens
- 55:34was he a big fat guy? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I
- 55:37don't know how yeah, he was he was fat. I don't
- 55:41Which they're not any we don't this could be
- 55:43a segue, but we don't have to but there's not
- 55:46too many fat head coaches anymore Yeah, it's
- 55:48good damn shape. No, it's not I need Tired of
- 55:53all these sexy head coaches. We need it fat some
- 55:56bitch back there or out there That used to be
- 56:01all of them 80 % of the league. I'm pretty, I'm
- 56:07pretty convinced that like, so last week there
- 56:11was like reports that Mike McCarthy was meeting
- 56:15with the Titans and then he had a second meeting
- 56:17where they would like went out to dinner. They
- 56:19wind and dined him and all that shit. And I'm
- 56:21pretty convinced he just did that for the free
- 56:23meal because like after that they didn't even
- 56:28like give him a second chance. Pretty much like
- 56:32I ate too much. They said he wasn't even a top
- 56:37candidate after that. Damn. You get the steak
- 56:43and the lobster with a side of steak. Can I get
- 56:48the turf surf and turf, please? I think he's
- 56:53going to Pittsburgh. That's the. Room on the
- 56:57street. Yeah, well, he's from there. And I think
- 56:59he's. buddies with the GM or something like that.
- 57:03It's always it's always or buddies they have
- 57:07they have worked together in the past or something
- 57:09like that. Yeah, the boys club that is NFL coaches.
- 57:15Yeah. So, but yes, Robert Salah passes the eye
- 57:21test looks like a leader of men was like he demands
- 57:24respect. It's good. hates Liam Cohen hates Liam
- 57:28Cohen. check. Let's run it. I'm, I'm optimistic.
- 57:35Yeah, he's the guy. I mean, he's the guy now.
- 57:38Like, it's he's the boy, you know. He, he is
- 57:44he's the boy now. He's our guy. He's our guy.
- 57:48Speaking of fat coaches, I wouldn't hate Dayball
- 57:50is the OC. I know, like McDaniels is like the
- 57:53Yes, obviously. But like you said, nothing good
- 57:55ever happens to us. So I wouldn't hate Dable
- 57:58as OC. I said, I said Dable OC since they fired
- 58:02him from the giants. I don't see. Kind of wanted
- 58:04to be that. Sorry. Go ahead. No, you were right.
- 58:08Like you, I think we had this discussion a couple
- 58:12of months back where it was like, I wouldn't
- 58:13mind him as head coach. And I was like, I wouldn't
- 58:15either, but as OC, what do you do with the bills?
- 58:19It was like, it's kind of tight. Like get, you
- 58:23really need, you really need to. The only thing
- 58:25with this Robert Sala hire is you got to get
- 58:28a great OC. Yes. Get your buddy off the street.
- 58:33You can't like, you can't promote the quarterback's
- 58:37coach or whatever. You can't just hire within.
- 58:40You got to get an outside guy who knows all like
- 58:44when he sees a football, that football says,
- 58:47I know that guy. You know what I mean? Like he's
- 58:50like, I went to college. I went to college. That's
- 58:53my boy. We room together. You got to get the
- 58:58guy. Yeah. You need to. Yeah. Especially, especially
- 59:02with a, a, a sophomore tenured quarterback going
- 59:07into a second season. Like you got to start developing
- 59:11like cam ward. He has some, he has the talent.
- 59:15He has so much potential. You just got to bring
- 59:17that out of him. You really got to dial him in
- 59:20and you've got to, you got to get the right guy.
- 59:25That's the only, that's the only thing I like,
- 59:28don't like about a defensive minded coach is
- 59:31that you got to get the right UC. Cause if we
- 59:35just do that, like, like you said, promote the
- 59:36quarterback coach or whatever the hell he'll
- 59:39probably just be gone in two years anyway. And
- 59:41then it's like, okay, well cam's going into contract
- 59:44year with, uh, his third play caller in three
- 59:48years. So like you got to get. someone who knows
- 59:52a shit. Like if you, if you get a guy who knows
- 59:54a shit and he gets hired away, that's probably
- 59:57a good problem to have. But if we just get some
- 1:00:01who gives a shit guy, who's just going to be
- 1:00:04gone in a couple of years anyway, then yeah,
- 1:00:05this is just, and then that means GM, if we go
- 1:00:09by Amy Adams past record, GM would be gone, solo
- 1:00:12be gone all within four or five years. And then
- 1:00:16we're just doing this whole thing. And then we
- 1:00:18got number one draft pick again. And it's just
- 1:00:20same old shit. I do think, you know, this past
- 1:00:24draft was fantastic. Honestly, like we hit on
- 1:00:30like, uh, Elick, um, who's the DK? Yeah. Pro
- 1:00:38bowler. Pro bowler. Um, cam cam. It feels like,
- 1:00:48uh, it feels like Titans have been making a Yeah,
- 1:00:53it's good draft, you know some good moves so
- 1:00:55far. Yeah, so far. Yeah Picking it one for two
- 1:00:59this year opens up a lot of possibilities I've
- 1:01:04been saying we're We might draft that made us
- 1:01:08so early and he just played yesterday, but that
- 1:01:11Miami thing. Yeah That guy's a freak. Yeah, that
- 1:01:17would be him and Simmons. Holy shit That'd be
- 1:01:23sick. And with the way that he you know Solo
- 1:01:28likes to run his defense. It's not out of the
- 1:01:30question Really? Yeah And the line has been blocking
- 1:01:38a lot better The old lines we walk a lot better.
- 1:01:42Well, I mean obviously not the past couple of
- 1:01:44weeks But like towards the tail end of the season.
- 1:01:47It was like hey, this is we're we're figuring
- 1:01:49it out It's really ever since they fired Callahan
- 1:01:53like the Older they owe the O line Callahan which
- 1:01:58I guess he got fired at the same time as his
- 1:02:00son, but yeah, it was supposed to be some like
- 1:02:02offensive line guru and Fucking terrible. He
- 1:02:07gets fired and they actually start I mean they
- 1:02:09still suck don't get me wrong, but they were
- 1:02:11like hey like not all of you are terrible, right?
- 1:02:17It was uh Things are things are looking okay
- 1:02:21Things are looking okay, you know something bad
- 1:02:24is gonna happen Well, that's why I'm just saying
- 1:02:27okay, you know, we're not you know, right we
- 1:02:29ain't blowing it out of the water You know, we're
- 1:02:31not I don't think we're making Terrible decisions,
- 1:02:34you know We we don't know yet until Yeah, yet.
- 1:02:40We don't know until uh Till we till we hit the
- 1:02:44gridiron hit the hit the field Throw the pigskin
- 1:02:48around anyway I thought Stefanski to Atlanta
- 1:02:53was interesting. I also thought that was interesting.
- 1:02:56I wouldn't have minded if he became the head
- 1:03:00coach. I would have loved it if he became the
- 1:03:02head coach. I think he did really well with what
- 1:03:06he had in Cleveland. Him and Baker hate each
- 1:03:13other, or apparently Baker hates him. I don't
- 1:03:15know if Stefanski cares, but Baker tweeted something.
- 1:03:21I think it was like some reporter or someone
- 1:03:24was like Stefanski situation and like the quarterback
- 1:03:27situation and Cleveland was always like an absolute
- 1:03:31failure and like shit like that and Baker was
- 1:03:33like Fuck you talking about Like I was pretty
- 1:03:37good. He's like, I wouldn't call it He said I
- 1:03:39wouldn't call it a failure and then he said something
- 1:03:41back how when he got like shipped out of town
- 1:03:44Stefanski never reached out to him So he hates
- 1:03:49Stefanski There's probably stuff there with like
- 1:03:52the the Deshaun Watson Oh for sure. Yeah trade
- 1:03:56design, but yeah be eyeing some Baker props.
- 1:04:00So when they play next year, oh Yeah Something
- 1:04:07oh in the I will say about the Titans hire just
- 1:04:13going back to this probably for one last time
- 1:04:15real quick on Sunday night The group chat was
- 1:04:20so convinced that we were going to hire Matt
- 1:04:22Nagy Monday morning. And. It was so. Oh, shit,
- 1:04:36hold on. We were also all just lost all of our
- 1:04:39bears bets. Yeah, we were real depressed. We
- 1:04:43were real depressed about it. But Chris said.
- 1:04:48In the group chat We hired our we fired our coach
- 1:04:52in October. Oh, yeah, and we're still getting
- 1:04:54the fucking scraps on the table and I thought
- 1:04:58that was such a just on point like you hit the
- 1:05:02bullseye on that analysis and it was just like
- 1:05:05how could we not Like just immediately throw
- 1:05:10Everything at John Harbor. Oh, like, you know
- 1:05:14did not even meet with us. It's crazy Yeah, and
- 1:05:19that wasn't really trying to third shade us all.
- 1:05:22I said that thing, assuming that Nagy was going
- 1:05:25to be the head coach and the solid. I think,
- 1:05:27I mean, not my first really probably second or
- 1:05:29even third choice, but yeah, Nagy, it was mainly
- 1:05:32saying like nobody like his own. Like you said,
- 1:05:35his own team doesn't even want like nobody wants
- 1:05:37this fucking guy to not hire him. We didn't hire
- 1:05:40our coach six fucking months ago to bring in
- 1:05:44this bozo. Yes. But that was obviously, we were
- 1:05:52preparing ourselves for Nagy. It was like, fuck.
- 1:05:57But I'm not trying to call Salah scraps at all.
- 1:06:03No. Because I don't think he's, I think he's
- 1:06:07the best option left. But it does bring up the
- 1:06:13point that we did fire our coach in October.
- 1:06:16Mm -hmm, and we were still like one of the last
- 1:06:19teams to hire a head coach Yeah, and it wasn't
- 1:06:23just Nagy because it was like the last three
- 1:06:25It was Nagy Sala and whoever the fucking Packers
- 1:06:28that thing is the Packard defensive coordinator,
- 1:06:30which Sala of that like trio was the only one
- 1:06:34I think who was actually getting serious like
- 1:06:37head coaching interviews So of those three, yes
- 1:06:41easily the right call. But yeah, when you just
- 1:06:43again Fired our coach in October and these are
- 1:06:46the three we have like no shade to solid but
- 1:06:49it's like John Harbaugh is out there I mean like
- 1:06:53Brian Dable like Mike B Daniels like these guys
- 1:06:56who were like have coached recently and had a
- 1:06:59Decent amount of success. There's a don't even
- 1:07:02really Give you the time of day other than McCarthy
- 1:07:05Which I didn't know that about dinner. That's
- 1:07:07funny, but Like other than him. I don't think
- 1:07:11we really it seemed like even I'm sure we reached
- 1:07:15out, but at least talked in person to someone
- 1:07:17who was like a grade A, like, hey, a lot of teams
- 1:07:22want this guy. So that was I was just I was very,
- 1:07:27very upset about a lot of things, but I was mad
- 1:07:30about that too when I was firing off messages
- 1:07:32in the group. I mean, it was it was a spot on
- 1:07:36spot on because you were right. And, you know,
- 1:07:41the Titans. get nothing but crumbs as it is because
- 1:07:47we're essentially a retirement home for players
- 1:07:50also. But yeah, I think that's all I got to say
- 1:07:59about that. All right. Yeah. Well, we're running
- 1:08:04out of time here, but to to leave the cautiously
- 1:08:08optimistic talk and go to Little bit of a lighter
- 1:08:12subject Sean. Would you like to give us a hot
- 1:08:15dog update? Give the people their their hot dog
- 1:08:20update. I Started my hot dog journey on Saturday.

- 1:08:33a kid reading their book report A little bit
- 1:08:40like is funny. I started my hot dog journey I
- 1:08:45started like something you sound like you're
- 1:08:47reading something. You really didn't like I started
- 1:08:49this journey last week Yeah, I'm doing the hot
- 1:09:00dog challenge 71 hot dogs. Um, it's the record
- 1:09:05for the Nathan's hot dog contest every fourth
- 1:09:10of July held by Joey chestnut. Um, I can do them
- 1:09:14up however I want. I'm having a fun with it.
- 1:09:17I'm 33 in, you're almost there. I'm like three,
- 1:09:24two and a half away from being halfway right
- 1:09:26there. And you started this on Saturday. Uh huh.
- 1:09:30It's pretty impressive. And you didn't have like,
- 1:09:32I know like starting Saturday night, not a lot
- 1:09:34of options to get like a shit ton of dogs down,
- 1:09:37but yeah, like you didn't come out. It was like,
- 1:09:41I'm just going to bang out like 10 or 15 real
- 1:09:43fast. Like you started at like a normal pace.
- 1:09:46There's no way there's, there's no way I can
- 1:09:50only eat like eight in a day without like, that's
- 1:09:54the most I've eaten in a day or today I ate.
- 1:10:00Six. No, I had eight today. I thought I had nine,
- 1:10:03but I had eight. Yeah. Um, I go through a pack
- 1:10:11of buns a day, pretty much. Pack a day. Yeah.
- 1:10:17Pack a day. See you at Kroger. These guys, the
- 1:10:25employees were like, is this guy okay? I, I,
- 1:10:33I buy the hot dog buns in threes. So I buy three,
- 1:10:38three packs of hot dog buns, just so I don't
- 1:10:41look completely crazy. You shouldn't have bought
- 1:10:4370 off the rip. So you just have them. No, I
- 1:10:48would have had to buy like nine in a row. Like
- 1:10:51I would have had to buy like nine packs of hot
- 1:10:53dogs. Having a party? No. No. Today, today was
- 1:11:01like the only bad day because I called an audible
- 1:11:03and I went to 7 -eleven got the roller dogs,
- 1:11:07which is not good. Those are ass dude. I see
- 1:11:11so many like TikToks about it. It's like, Oh
- 1:11:14my God, I'm so high and I can't wait to eat a
- 1:11:18roller dog off of 7 -eleven. Dude, those are
- 1:11:21ass. They're so bad. I was so excited. I was
- 1:11:25like, these are about to be good. It's like,
- 1:11:26Nope, these are. bad. I think the only thing
- 1:11:31that's really keeping me in it is the fact that
- 1:11:33I built a fire pit for my parents and I fire
- 1:11:37roasted these hot dogs because they add flavor.
- 1:11:41If I had to like microwave or like boil or put
- 1:11:46these in a skillet or something, I know I could
- 1:11:50not get through this, but the fire dogs are making
- 1:11:55a huge difference. Okay, and we will end on that
