  significant they're going to have a ton of money to spend.

  the league? We're going to be.
• 0:21
  Looking at Aaron George and saying that he can't win the big
• 0:24
  game, Michael Jordan said. I played 82 games.

  I'm 43 there's nothing to cry about.
• 2:32

  www.worldwidesportsradio.com And I I stopped for a second because
• 3:04
  there is a lot to get into tonight.
• 3:07
  A lot of craziness in sports. Some of them I, I just wonder if
• 3:12
  these organizations actually know what they're doing and I, I
• 3:17
  will mention them as we move forward in the topics tonight.
• 3:20
  But nevertheless, I had an opportunity to go to Montreal,
• 3:24
  Canada and I, I drove about 7 1/2 hours to get there and 7 1/2
• 3:30
  hours to get home. It was craziness.
• 3:33
  And I will say this do not rent a Subaru four Wheeler because as
• 3:39
  much as it's so nice inside on the I guess the seats are just
• 3:43
  so damn bad. I hurt my ass.
• 3:46
  I had sciatica. It was horrible the whole drive
• 3:49
  home I was trying to like lean towards one like 1 cheek.
• 3:54
  And what I mean by cheek is my right cheek because my left
• 3:57
  cheek was absolutely in pain. I couldn't put pressure on it
• 4:00
  because it was shooting down my leg.
• 4:02
  Subaru cars are not the way to go Ladies and gentlemen, stay
• 4:06
  away from the Subaru cars. But I, I got a chance to go out
• 4:11
  there. I want to give a shout out to
• 4:12
  Brittany. She, you know, pretty much took
• 4:15
  care of the whole practically adventure over there to Montreal
• 4:18
  and we rented a car. It was fun.
• 4:21
  I guess at some points it was fun, but we got a chance to stay
• 4:24
  at the, I guess the Bonaventure. It it was a nice hotel.
• 4:28
  It was, it was really cool to go over there because I they have a
• 4:31
  heated pool. It was like foaming it, it it
• 4:35
  wasn't foaming. It was heated.
• 4:36
  It was like that. It was so cold outside.
• 4:39
  It was like 9° when we got there that the heat was just rising.
• 4:43
  It looked like. We were like the whole, the pool
• 4:46
  was a heating frenzy and they had a hot tub and it was, it was
• 4:52
  fun. It was definitely interesting.
• 4:54
  The only place you can go is the 10th floor, so you're like 10
• 4:57
  floors above everything in the city.
• 5:00
  It was, it was nice. It was a really nice hotel.
• 5:02
  We got a chance to sightsee on the final day, but it was
• 5:06
  snowing. It was garbage and and I got a
• 5:09
  can't. I got a chance to go to the
• 5:10
  underground mall. We went there multiple times
• 5:13
  because speed. It's speedy.
• 5:15
  Brittany loves the shop. She loves to go and buy those
• 5:18
  Canadian socks in those Canadian different, you know, peril.
• 5:23
  So she enjoyed it. I did buy a new pair of
• 5:26
  sneakers, ladies and gentlemen, as I always do.
• 5:27
  I bought a new pair of Clouds, I got a couple of new headbands
• 5:31
  and then off I went. But it was a cool four days.
• 5:35
  Jabba reached out to me, which I appreciate your job.
• 5:38
  Everybody reached out to me. Nithin couldn't stop bothering
• 5:41
  me. But I love Nithin.
• 5:44
  And by the way, Nithin is in the back end.
• 5:47
  Shout out to the old myth, our PR manager, NNIL, yes, he's the
• 5:52
  NIL vice president of his company.
• 5:55
  So he's doing some big things. We're working on some big
• 5:59
  stories and all that other stuff.
• 6:00
  The Broncos beat the Bills 33 to 30 in overtime to advance to
• 6:06
  their first AFC championship game since 2015.
• 6:10
  The Broncos defense forced 5 turnovers in this game,
• 6:13
  including a controversial interception in over time on a
• 6:18
  play that looked like it was a catch.
• 6:20
  Bribe Cooks. The Seahawks blew out the 49ers
• 6:23
  41 to 6 to advance to their first NFC Championship game
• 6:27
  since 2014. Rashid Shahid had a kickoff
• 6:31
  return touchdown on the first play of the game and the
• 6:35
  Seahawks ran away with it. After that, the Patriots beat
• 6:38
  the Texans 28 to 16 in a sloppy turnover.
• 6:42
  Filed game or field game. I guess I'm going to file it.
• 6:46
  CJ Stroud had but four interceptions and the Texans
• 6:49
  offensive line allowed five sacks in this game.
• 6:52
  The Rams won in overtime 20 to 17 to beat the Bears, the only
• 6:57
  Rd. team to win in the NFL Divisional round.
• 7:00
  Caleb Williams had an unbelievable throw to Cole
• 7:03
  Commit to tie the game with 18 seconds left in regulations.
• 7:09
  But to tie the game in 18 seconds left a little damper
• 7:16
  because when it went to overtime, yes, ladies and
• 7:19
  gentlemen, he threw an interception in overtime which
• 7:22
  led to a Rams game-winning field goal kick.
• 7:28
  So let's get into the Broncos game and Sean McDermott is no
• 7:33
  longer the head coach of the Buffalo Bills.
• 7:36
  And I don't know if we're going to blame Sean McDermott for this
• 7:39
  loss. He did speak up after the game.
• 7:41
  He said his piece. He he stuck up for his team.
• 7:44
  He stuck up for his organization.
• 7:46
  That shows a lot about who Sean McDermott is.
• 7:49
  He said a lot of graceful, graceful things about Josh
• 7:53
  Allen. Josh Allen went up there after
• 7:54
  the game, cried. It showed he put his heart out
• 7:57
  there. We love that about Josh Allen.
• 7:59
  He's one of very few guys that will go out there and cry in
• 8:02
  front of the media and give his personality and show his
• 8:05
  personality to the world. That's something special about
• 8:08
  this kid and why I think Josh Allen is an elite and one of the
• 8:12
  elite quarterbacks in this league and has been one of the
• 8:14
  elite quarterbacks in this league for over 10 years.
• 8:17
  But here's the facts and this is the facts.
• 8:21
  This game went back and forth. Was it sloppy?
• 8:25
  There was some sloppiness in the game.
• 8:27
  There's no question when you have 5 fourths turnovers,
• 8:30
  there's definitely a sloppy. It was definitely a sloppy game
• 8:33
  and Josh Allen didn't have one of his unbelievable games.
• 8:36
  But Josh put his team on his shoulders.
• 8:38
  He made every single play he needed to to get this game into
• 8:42
  overtime, and he came up short. And the Bills come up short
• 8:47
  every single time, over and over and over again.
• 8:50
  Against Kansas City, over the years, against Baltimore,
• 8:53
  against the Bengals. It seems like Josh Allen can
• 8:56
  never get over the hump. And this year, he had his
• 8:59
  chance. Bo Nicks is a rookie
• 9:01
  quarterback. He's not a rookie.
• 9:02
  He's too. He's been in the league for a
• 9:03
  couple of years. But to me, this guy is a rookie.
• 9:06
  He doesn't know what to do in the playoffs.
• 9:09
  And, and again, going into this game, I didn't expect Bo Nicks
• 9:13
  to have a great game, But he showed up in certain parts of
• 9:16
  the game. He made certain throws that was
• 9:18
  fun to watch. And I could say this about Bo
• 9:20
  Nicks, if he was still in the playoffs, if he didn't break his
• 9:24
  ankle as he did and it was announced by Sean Payton at the
• 9:28
  end of the game, maybe the Broncos go to a Super Bowl.
• 9:30
  And maybe Bo Nicks and the Broncos win a Super Bowl.
• 9:34
  But I don't know if they're going to.
• 9:36
  Because to me, when you look at this game, there's a lot of
• 9:40
  questions about this Broncos team.
• 9:41
  First, this. This is an elite defense.
• 9:45
  This is one of the best defenses in the league.
• 9:47
  One of the best secondaries in the league.
• 9:48
  Yes, they forced 5 turnovers, but made a lot of mistakes in
• 9:51
  this game against a Buffalo Bills team that didn't have a
• 9:54
  number one wide receiver. Not one number one wide
• 9:59
  receiver. If you think Shakur is one of
• 10:03
  those guys, you're out of your damn mind.
• 10:06
  They don't have a #1 Coleman played at certain parts of this
• 10:09
  game. They have not had.
• 10:10
  They lost Gabe Davis. They have not had a number one
• 10:13
  wide receiver since somebody that's playing for the Patriots
• 10:16
  and you know, I'm speaking about.
• 10:18
  All your favorites. Stefan Diggs, they haven't had
• 10:21
  one of those guys. And these are the facts here.
• 10:25
  The Broncos to me are not an elite offense.
• 10:29
  They're not. They don't have I they have a
• 10:32
  great wide receiver. They don't have any elite wide
• 10:34
  receiver, they don't have elite offensive style of players.
• 10:39
  Now, obviously we'll get into the Patriots and we will get
• 10:42
  into the Broncos as we move into Thursday.
• 10:44
  But the fact here is I worry about this particular team in
• 10:49
  the Broncos because if they could stop Harvey, if teams can
• 10:53
  stop Harvey, what do they have offensively?
• 10:58
  They're they've been known to run the ball.
• 11:00
  You know, Sean Payton is that old time type of football.
• 11:02
  He likes to run the ball first throw second.
• 11:05
  This is not Drew Brees. Bo Nicks is not Drew Brees over
• 11:08
  the years. Now they got a guy named Stidham
• 11:11
  who's going to be the quarterback in in the AFC title
• 11:16
  game. There's a lot of questions to
• 11:18
  where the Broncos are going to go and move on.
• 11:20
  What I do know about this particular game is Josh Allen
• 11:24
  was the best quarterback still in the playoffs besides Matthew
• 11:28
  Stafford. As far as I'm concerned.
• 11:30
  When you look at CJ Strout, a young guy, I would say rookie in
• 11:34
  the playoffs, a guy that doesn't have a lot of experience.
• 11:36
  Bonics don't have a lot of experience in the playoffs.
• 11:39
  Caleb Williams don't have a lot of experience in the playoffs.
• 11:41
  Drake May doesn't have a lot of experience in the playoffs and
• 11:45
  you you look at all these guys and how about Sam Donald doesn't
• 11:48
  have a lot of experience in this the playoffs.
• 11:51
  Brock Birdie has experience and just absolutely blew it and
• 11:54
  we'll get into it in in just a few moments.
• 11:57
  The fact here is when I look at the Broncos, it was fun to
• 12:01
  watch. The Broncos got lucky.
• 12:03
  It was a missed call by the referees.
• 12:06
  I've always said that the game is rigged.
• 12:08
  I believe the NFL is trying to give the Patriots the easiest
• 12:12
  way, the easiest path to the Super Bowl.
• 12:16
  I'll. I don't care what anybody says.
• 12:17
  I've always believed A controversy.
• 12:20
  Yeah, I think it's controversy. You want to say I'm
• 12:24
  controversial? I'm as controversial as they
• 12:27
  get. The fact here is the fact that
• 12:30
  you hear that Bonex goes down and he's out for the playoffs.
• 12:33
  And I'm not saying the league wanted or knows that Bonex was
• 12:36
  going to go down. I'm not saying that.
• 12:38
  But this, this game should have been over.
• 12:41
  Brady Cooks caught that ball. He was down.
• 12:44
  His knee hit the ground. It was ripped out of his hands,
• 12:48
  ripped out of his hands when he was down, but nevertheless the
• 12:53
  referees missed it and didn't want to call a time out, didn't
• 12:55
  want to review it, didn't want to do anything.
• 12:56
  Sean McDermott was absolutely right.
• 12:59
  But guess what? There's no crying in football.
• 13:02
  As we all know in sports. We've heard it actually in
• 13:06
  baseball, we we all know when somebody had said in a league of
• 13:09
  their own and Tom Hanks said it, there's no crying in baseball.
• 13:13
  This is a manly sport. There's no crying in football,
• 13:17
  except if you're Josh Allen, and I got to give him credit for
• 13:20
  that. Showed his, showed his
• 13:22
  personality, showed who he is as a person.
• 13:24
  I I'm just telling you right now, going into this game,
• 13:28
  looking at this game and look at the true hope.
• 13:31
  If you're a Broncos fan, I know Joppa, your son is a Broncos fan
• 13:34
  and we're going to go from game to game and I'm going to ask you
• 13:36
  all your opinions. But the fact here is the Broncos
• 13:40
  to me is not made to win a Super Bowl without Bo Nicks.
• 13:45
  And I don't even know if with Bo Nicks, Bo Nicks, they would go
• 13:49
  to the Super Bowl knowing that the Patriots are as bad as they
• 13:54
  they have been with Drake May in the play offs and Drake May has
• 13:57
  not looked good in the play offs.
• 13:58
  I don't care what anybody says, he has not looked good.
• 14:00
  I don't want to hear what the announcers say.
• 14:02
  I don't want to hear what the analysts say.
• 14:04
  He has not looked good. When he goes against great
• 14:06
  talent, he's had problems. Great against great talent.
• 14:10
  I don't know if I trust this team as a whole when it comes
• 14:14
  down to winning the big game Speedy.
• 14:16
  Yeah, I've always been under the belief that the NFC had the top
• 14:20
  four teams probably going into the playoffs.
• 14:22
  If obviously if Michael Parson was healthy for the Packers, I
• 14:24
  thought that was the angle it was on.
• 14:26
  Obviously, now that he's not, it was probably the Bills were my
• 14:29
  AFC pick as well in the Super Bowl.
• 14:30
  I thought it made a lot of sense.
• 14:32
  They had the number one pass defense in the league and Denver
• 14:34
  I didn't think could run the ball enough consistently in this
• 14:37
  game. But the Broncos and the Bills
• 14:39
  and This is why I probably will get to McDermott getting fired
• 14:41
  later. But I think the biggest reason
• 14:43
  why McDermott eventually they had to wear out on him.
• 14:46
  The Bills defense has been historically bad in the
• 14:48
  playoffs. And I think a lot of that had to
• 14:49
  do with facing top offense, obviously.
• 14:52
  But still you've seen good defenses still be able to win.
• 14:56
  And the Broncos, they're you're right, they're not a lethal
• 14:58
  passing attack. They shut down Cortland Sutton.
• 15:00
  He had two catches in the whole game.
• 15:01
  And they let Marvin Mims do a bunch of great things.
• 15:04
  They let the these tight ends get it going in the later in the
• 15:08
  game. And I think for that reason, you
• 15:11
  can't blame Josh Allen. But at the same time, Josh Allen
• 15:14
  did have those turnovers at lateral play made absolutely no
• 15:16
  sense. Like I don't know where he was
• 15:18
  seeing something there. I know we've seen teams a lot
• 15:20
  more do these hook and ladder type plays.
• 15:22
  But again, it's one of those things that you have to a team
• 15:26
  blamed if they think. And that's why I don't think the
• 15:29
  Broncos are great either. The NFC has the best teams left.
• 15:31
  We'll get to the other games in a bit, but they're the quality
• 15:34
  of the Seahawks and the Rams are that much more significant than
• 15:36
  the quality of the Broncos. The Bills are the only shot to
• 15:38
  do it. And again, they throw it away.
• 15:40
  They just keep beating themselves in any way.
• 15:41
  Now, again, you mentioned the referee you call.
• 15:43
  Was it a catch? Was it not?
• 15:45
  I don't think you could do that justification like you did last
• 15:47
  year with the Chiefs. Last year it was obviously a
• 15:49
  first down, like they should have gotten that first down call
• 15:51
  on the QB sneak. The pass interference I thought
• 15:53
  was the right call. The non pass interference I
• 15:55
  thought was the right call on the Broncos.
• 15:58
  And I just don't know if there was enough to overturn it on a
• 16:00
  catch. What I have called it a catch
• 16:01
  probably, but I don't know if there was enough to overturn it.
• 16:03
  And that's why I can't blame them here for this instance to
• 16:06
  say that kind of thing. Was there conspiracy with the
• 16:09
  Patriots and the Broncos wanting them in the AFC championship
• 16:12
  game Again, who knows, but who knows.
• 16:14
  Would it be funny if Jared Siddam gets his revenge on the
• 16:16
  on the on the Patriots after Jeff, who loved Jarrett, said
• 16:19
  him at the time when he got drafted in 2019 was raving?
• 16:22
  Oh, the Patriots got their QB of the future.
• 16:24
  Wouldn't have been funny to see them knocked out.
• 16:25
  But yeah, it's tough to tell with this Broncos team if they
• 16:27
  could actually do it. Yeah, I was wondering too, like
• 16:31
  I wanted to get your guys's perspective of this.
• 16:33
  Like you, you've seen a lot more.
• 16:37
  I guess the best word to use is trickery.
• 16:39
  Like are like, is that the right time?
• 16:42
  Where like sweetie, like you said, like what did he see like
• 16:44
  to do those things? Like do you think this is the
• 16:47
  right time to to use those type of plays and bring it out of the
• 16:50
  playbook? I just I don't think this.
• 16:52
  I don't even think that was a design play.
• 16:53
  I just think it was just Josh Allen thinking he had a lateral
• 16:56
  and it just backfired on him and badly at the wrong spot in the
• 17:00
  game. It's one thing if you're trying
• 17:01
  in the third quarter or something, you're at the end of
• 17:03
  the half and you're giving him a gift field goal essentially.
• 17:07
  Yeah, I, it's, I think there was, there was a tale of a lot
• 17:11
  of stuff that was going on. And I think defensively,
• 17:15
  offensively there, there were a couple, I guess either, I don't
• 17:21
  know if it was miscommunication from from one side or the other,
• 17:24
  but it just it felt like something was a little off on
• 17:27
  certain guys. And I don't know if the moment
• 17:30
  got too big or they couldn't slow the game down or they just
• 17:34
  weren't able to read what was going on as far as, you know,
• 17:38
  plays and check offs and all the other stuff.
• 17:40
  And it was, it was interesting because like when you guys say
• 17:46
  like, did they want them in in this situation and is it rigged?
• 17:52
  I hate to admit when Errol's right or he's almost right, but
• 17:56
  I think he's on to something where it, I wouldn't say it's
• 18:01
  scripted, but it's put into place.
• 18:07
  And I know everybody's going to attack me when I come out with
• 18:09
  these these crazy theories. And it is a theory.
• 18:12
  But guess what? I've been saying it for 10 years
• 18:14
  and now you have ex NFL players going out on podcast and saying
• 18:18
  the same thing that I'm saying. And I've been saying it.
• 18:20
  I've been attacked by fans all over the world.
• 18:23
  Speedy How many people have attacked?
• 18:24
  Me for oh believe me, my first year I was with the network.
• 18:27
  Remember your whole Tom Brady's cast is fake and Jeff ripped
• 18:31
  you. For everybody ripped me for it.
• 18:33
  Everybody ripped me for all these particular theories that I
• 18:37
  have, but guess what? As much as their theories, their
• 18:40
  theories that have somewhat grown over the years and now
• 18:44
  everybody is saying it. Now you have Stephen A Smith
• 18:47
  bringing it up. Hey, maybe this is true.
• 18:49
  Maybe it is rigged or there's other guys, other analysts.
• 18:52
  Pat McAfee has said it on his show quite a few times that he
• 18:55
  thinks that there's some things about the NFL that's kind of
• 18:58
  become more scripted, maybe because of betting, sports
• 19:01
  betting, I don't know. But here's my theory to the
• 19:04
  situation. When you think about the way the
• 19:07
  referees make calls in certain football games, you wonder if
• 19:11
  there is somebody speaking to them upstairs telling them
• 19:15
  something during the game. Or if something happens during
• 19:18
  the game on maybe calling it not a catch or hits the ground or
• 19:24
  something of that magnitude. And I, and I believe in this
• 19:27
  particular moment, I think Sean McDermott was absolutely right.
• 19:32
  This was a catch. Do you think in the headset?
• 19:34
  Because they obviously never let us hear the headset?
• 19:36
  Yes. You think there's things being?
• 19:38
  Said 100%. That's why we don't get to hear
• 19:41
  that. 100% I, I think the NFL, obviously with the referees,
• 19:45
  you're not going to hear what the referees are saying.
• 19:47
  And you know, I don't know if anybody knows.
• 19:48
  Whenever there's a penalty called or some kind of call,
• 19:51
  usually the referees go and talk to the coaches right after that
• 19:54
  play. What are the referees try to do?
• 19:56
  They tried to speed up the play, right?
• 19:57
  They tried to move the play along as quick as they can so
• 20:01
  there was no stoppage of play and they can move on to the
• 20:03
  game. So they don't call a time out or
• 20:06
  something is not called. And and to me, Shawn.
• 20:10
  Derman was absolutely right. I think he had.
• 20:12
  He had a reason to argue about that.
• 20:14
  I think he's upset about it. He lost his job, possibly
• 20:17
  because of that one play. Think about it, if Buffalo moves
• 20:21
  on, I think the only way McDermott wins his or keeps his
• 20:24
  job is if they make it to the Super Bowl.
• 20:26
  That's the only way he keeps his job.
• 20:28
  I just think that this is their best chance.
• 20:31
  When you don't have Pat Patrick Mahomes in the playoffs or Joe
• 20:34
  Burrow or Lamar Jackson dealing with three of those guys that
• 20:37
  are tremendous talented quarterbacks who you can argue
• 20:40
  those are the four, the four most talented quarterbacks in
• 20:43
  the league and the elite quarterbacks of the elite
• 20:45
  besides Matthew Stafford. You you would say that these
• 20:48
  guys are the faces of the NFL and they're not in the playoffs
• 20:51
  for the first time in their careers all together.
• 20:54
  It tells you this is your easiest ride to the finals.
• 20:57
  This is your easiest ride to your Super Bowl.
• 21:00
  And they failed. They failed against to me, I
• 21:03
  know it was in Denver, a team that they're better than I, I
• 21:06
  don't care what anybody says. And, and maybe the records don't
• 21:09
  show that because Denver had the best record in the EFC.
• 21:11
  Denver was very lucky on a lot of these games.
• 21:14
  All season long. Everything fell their way and
• 21:17
  this game did not fall their way.
• 21:19
  As a matter of fact, they can. To me, Buffalo can run the ball
• 21:23
  and they did pretty well. Stop in the run 2 in this game,
• 21:25
  they did very well to me. I thought this was going to be
• 21:30
  just a complete dominant of running and and potential
• 21:34
  running against the the Buffalo Bills because the Buffalo Bills
• 21:37
  have been so bad at stopping the run this year.
• 21:39
  But guess what? It wasn't it was very close.
• 21:42
  It was back and forth and again, Josh Allen just couldn't do
• 21:46
  enough to win that game. Speaking of not doing enough the
• 21:51
  49ers, what an embarrassment. I will say this and I'll say
• 21:58
  this because our friend Owen is probably listening right now.
• 22:01
  Owen reached out to me after the 49ers moved on to play Seattle.
• 22:06
  He says, are you going to ever give Kyle Shanahan his props?
• 22:09
  And I said, no, I'm not. And he says why not?
• 22:12
  He's look what he's doing with all these injuries, OK?
• 22:16
  I said we'll wait and see what he does in Seattle and what did
• 22:19
  he do in Seattle? It looked like Kyle Shanahan
• 22:22
  didn't have the troops moving because Seattle was dancing
• 22:25
  around and prancing around after winning, after winning the the
• 22:30
  conference, winning the NFC. They were dancing and it was on
• 22:34
  their board. Everybody was like Christian
• 22:35
  McCaffrey was all about Kyle Shanahan and Ed McCaffrey and
• 22:39
  Michael Shanahan. They were talking about the
• 22:41
  connection and how great it is and what did what happened in
• 22:45
  this game. Well, let's look at the score.
• 22:47
  Let's look at the score and, and the score will tell you
• 22:49
  everything. Let's look at it.
• 22:51
  It was 41 to 6. Now, when you look at a score
• 22:57
  like this, you would think, I don't know, Browns, Arizona, New
• 23:03
  York Jets, I mean, you name it. That's that's the kind of score
• 23:07
  you would expect from teams like this, not the San Francisco
• 23:11
  49ers. And I don't want to hear about
• 23:13
  George Kittle or any of these Nick Bosar or any of these guys
• 23:19
  order I I don't want to hear. I don't want to hear about any
• 23:23
  of these guys being out. You play who's ever in front of
• 23:26
  you and you and your team, Owen, Kyle, Shanahan and yes, Bambi
• 23:33
  Sala, who is now the head coach of the Titans and I'll get into
• 23:36
  that a little bit later. He didn't show up.
• 23:39
  Sala did not show up to this game or he didn't have his
• 23:41
  troops show up to this game because they were nowhere to be
• 23:44
  found. And Brock Purdy, who's looked
• 23:46
  good all season, when he's come back, has looked in this game.
• 23:50
  I don't even think he believed that he was playing in the game.
• 23:53
  I think he was playing in an arcade.
• 23:55
  Think about it. 15 for 27140 yards, one interception, no
• 24:00
  throne touchdowns, none. Brock Purdy.
• 24:03
  That's unheard of since he's come back.
• 24:06
  Brock Purdy has been the most efficient quarterback in the NFL
• 24:10
  since he's been back. You think about it.
• 24:12
  I don't want to hear you still have Christian McCaffrey.
• 24:15
  Christian McCaffrey rushed for 35 yards, 35, and he caught for
• 24:20
  39. Tell me the last time that on
• 24:23
  all-purpose yards that Christian McCaffrey didn't have over 100
• 24:27
  yards. I can't even remember.
• 24:29
  And that goes for Mike McDonald. And you know what I'm talking
• 24:34
  about speedy Mr. McDonald, who has been the best coach in the
• 24:38
  NFL all season long, who I believe is coach of the year.
• 24:41
  He has been sensational. He deserves a little bit more
• 24:44
  credit than anybody gives him because guess what?
• 24:48
  Since he's left the Baltimore Ravens, where is Baltimore's
• 24:52
  defense been ranked? Horrible.
• 24:54
  He's left and Sanford and you think what Seattle's done since
• 24:58
  he's gone there, I don't know. He takes Sam Donald now.
• 25:01
  Sam Donald, do you have an out like outspoken game that he
• 25:06
  spoke volumes of what he is in the playoffs.
• 25:08
  He was 12 for 17124 yards. That is not great, but he didn't
• 25:14
  need to be great because guess what?
• 25:15
  He had Kenneth friggin Walker who had 19 rushing yards, 116
• 25:23
  yards and three touchdowns absolutely exploding off the
• 25:27
  paper, who has been a beast since he's been drafted.
• 25:30
  I remember when he was drafted in the second round.
• 25:33
  They have had a tandem of players all season long show up.
• 25:38
  We all, hey everybody keeps making fun of Cooper Cup. 5
• 25:41
  receptions for 60 yards is pretty damn good.
• 25:44
  How about Jackson Smith Najigba who didn't have one of his best
• 25:48
  games? He didn't need to three for 19.
• 25:52
  That's what he had. He had a touchdown. 3 receptions
• 25:55
  for 19 yards. When was the last time you know
• 25:57
  Jackson Najigba had only 19 yards in a game?
• 26:02
  Here's what I'm going to say what happened in this game and
• 26:05
  it's pretty simple. The 49ers and Kyle Shanahan had
• 26:08
  his head up his ass. That's what happened.
• 26:10
  And, and, and Robert, AKA Bambi Sala was probably thinking he
• 26:14
  was in a Disney movie because he was definitely not playing in
• 26:17
  this game. Because if he was, he would
• 26:19
  actually knew how to call the right place.
• 26:22
  Because to me it was run, run and more run.
• 26:26
  And they couldn't stop the run, which I got news for you.
• 26:30
  I I don't know how that's gonna work in Titanville, because to
• 26:33
  me, this was an embarrassment, an absolute embarrassment.
• 26:38
  And to me, it's a firing offense.
• 26:41
  Kyle Shanahan losing 41 to 6 as a National Football game,
• 26:47
  divisional game against the Seattle Seahawks team.
• 26:50
  Yes, they were home. Yes, they're the best team in
• 26:52
  the NFC. They had many chances.
• 26:54
  They played them twice this year and we're in both those games.
• 26:59
  And then go into a game in the playoffs and lay up a lousy
• 27:02
  goose egg. To me, it is a firing offense.
• 27:06
  So yes, Owen, I'm not going to compliment, compliment Kyle
• 27:09
  Shanahan. Because here's the facts.
• 27:11
  Kyle Shanahan, as we all know, can't coach the big game, can't
• 27:15
  call the big plays, and the guy is a failure to launch.
• 27:19
  Remember that I've been naming movies.
• 27:21
  Remember that speedy failure to launch Matthew McConaughey
• 27:25
  because he wasn't launching anything but a stick up his ass?
• 27:28
  Yeah. And again, that game looked like
• 27:30
  it was being coached by Robert Salo when he was a head coach.
• 27:33
  Like, that's how bad it is. It was for the 49ers.
• 27:34
  I always thought they were kind of fraudulent anyway.
• 27:36
  Like they did well with surviving the injuries
• 27:39
  throughout the regular season, fine.
• 27:40
  But again, the NFC West, there's a reason there's three teams
• 27:43
  there. They had one of the easier
• 27:44
  schedules coming into the league.
• 27:45
  And we talked about all time the 49ers had the preseason, the
• 27:48
  easiest schedule coming into the league.
• 27:49
  Obviously, the Patriots now surpassed that, but
• 27:51
  nevertheless, they were a team that was battling through and
• 27:54
  winning in ways that were very ugly.
• 27:56
  Their point differential wasn't great throughout the year and
• 27:58
  now you're certainly seeing them because of really high quality,
• 28:01
  well-rounded Seahawks team. Just how good they are.
• 28:03
  The Seahawks do it on all three levels.
• 28:06
  The Seahawks have always prided themselves on special teams.
• 28:08
  What do they do? They get a kick, return,
• 28:09
  touchdown, the first play of the game.
• 28:11
  And 49ers who fired their defensive or special teams
• 28:15
  coaching staff for a while and had a special teams coach to
• 28:17
  their previous defensive coordinator before the great
• 28:19
  Bambi Sala. We're not ready for that kind of
• 28:22
  thing. And Brock Purdy, I was worried
• 28:23
  about it being being ready for the interior pressure that
• 28:26
  Seattle brings. They have three good defensive
• 28:27
  tackles and boy, did they get out matched in this game.
• 28:30
  Brock Purdy had no time to throw the ball and they have no
• 28:32
  receivers that can create separation because they decided,
• 28:35
  all right, let's make our best receiver, our best route runner.
• 28:38
  And Brandon Iuke frustrated when he came back from injury.
• 28:41
  So he never wanted to come back at all in week 12 or week 13
• 28:44
  when he was ready. And all right, let's just go in
• 28:47
  with what we got. No Ricky Pearsall because he's
• 28:48
  hurt too. All right, let's see where we're
• 28:50
  going to to go with. We're going to go with DeMarcus
• 28:52
  Robinson. You mentioned last week, Jawan
• 28:54
  Jennings, who's fine but can't separate.
• 28:56
  Yeah, that's the guy we're going to go up against, against Devin
• 28:59
  Witherspoon. And I'm in Wari and Kobe
• 29:01
  Bryant's and all these other guys that are really good in the
• 29:03
  secondary and a pass rushes. That's good.
• 29:05
  Then we go to the great Bambi Sal on his defense, a defense
• 29:08
  that has struggled to rush the pastor since they lost.
• 29:10
  Nick Bosa can't get pressure on Sam Darnold and Sam Donald, like
• 29:14
  you said, didn't have to throw the ball much.
• 29:15
  And that's another scary level that Seattle has to bring
• 29:18
  because they can run the ball effectively in this game with a
• 29:20
  17 nothing lead. And we talked about it
• 29:22
  throughout the year. They're they're rushing volume
• 29:24
  is actually still really high as good as an Ajig.
• 29:26
  But season was that they could just play that kind of game
• 29:29
  against a bad run defense in the 49ers.
• 29:31
  A rookie essentially defensive line with all these linebackers
• 29:34
  that are hurt and all these other guys hurt and they just
• 29:36
  play a complete ball control defensive coach type of game
• 29:40
  with a little mixer of Seahawks flashing and special teams in
• 29:42
  there in the 49ers. And Bambi Sala.
• 29:45
  And Kyle Shannon were not ready. That's what kind of what I said
• 29:48
  earlier. It just, it felt like something
• 29:51
  was off and you've seen that team answer the bell all year
• 29:56
  with the injuries and CMC obviously being healthy and
• 30:01
  doing that. And like they, they alienated, I
• 30:05
  feel like from what they've done all year.
• 30:08
  Obviously the Seahawks change a little bit of that and in the
• 30:11
  way they defend and what they can do.
• 30:14
  But it just felt like as a, as a coach and, and you know, as a
• 30:18
  scheme, you make those adjustments and they didn't make
• 30:21
  any adjustments. That game was tough to watch.
• 30:23
  And I you felt it from the kick off when they ran a bag of
• 30:27
  scored and I'm like, Oh, I don't think this is going to end well,
• 30:30
  but I didn't think it was going to end like.
• 30:31
  That Java just just ask your ask your son's team how that works
• 30:34
  for them when they played in the Super Bowl. 100% and you know,
• 30:39
  he's, he literally called me as soon as it was over.
• 30:42
  And then, you know, 15 minutes later he's texted me and he's
• 30:45
  like, damn it. And I'm like, well, yeah, it's,
• 30:47
  it's going to be a little bit different now.
• 30:50
  And I'd ask him. I go, who the hell is your
• 30:52
  backup at this point? Like I had, I had no idea.
• 30:55
  Like, and he was like, you don't want to know.
• 30:58
  And I'm like, do I know him? And he goes, no.
• 31:00
  And then he I was like, I have no idea who the hell that is.
• 31:03
  But the Niners for, for what they've got through season with
• 31:09
  all the injuries and then to lay an egg like that, it just it
• 31:13
  kind of boggled my mind that they didn't make any
• 31:15
  adjustments. They've obviously done it
• 31:17
  throughout the year and they just, they didn't, they look
• 31:21
  flat. There was no adjustments.
• 31:23
  And when we talk about coaching as as we've done and how
• 31:26
  important that is, when you see how the game is progressing and
• 31:31
  you don't make the adjustments and you don't change up a play
• 31:35
  call, you don't change up your scheme, you don't change
• 31:37
  anything. And you score 6 points and CMC
• 31:39
  has less than 75 all-purpose yards.
• 31:42
  I'd have to look it up. I don't know that answer, but I
• 31:45
  don't know the last time that he's had less than that.
• 31:47
  Tampa did it once, I think when he was with Carolina.
• 31:50
  Like, I remember I think he had like 10 yards in the game, Yeah.
• 31:54
  This guy is one of the best pass catching running backs in NFL
• 31:59
  history. If you look at his numbers,
• 32:00
  they're ridiculous. And to see what CMC couldn't do
• 32:04
  in this game. And it says a lot about McDonald
• 32:07
  in the way he calls his plays in.
• 32:08
  And you have to give some of the defensive players a lot of
• 32:11
  credit because they were sensational.
• 32:13
  They did everything they needed to do to keep their team in the
• 32:15
  game. And, and again, I that goes a
• 32:18
  lot for Williams and a lot of people, including Jet fans were
• 32:21
  wondering what happened to Williams when he was here with
• 32:24
  the New York Jets. He was drafted by the New York
• 32:26
  Jets. He was a first round talent.
• 32:28
  This guy was an elite player coming from USC.
• 32:31
  Remember that Speedy. And then he goes to the Giants.
• 32:33
  The Giants sign him and he played pretty well with the
• 32:36
  Giants. The Giants overpaid him and the
• 32:38
  Giants let him go. The Giants let him go.
• 32:40
  As a matter of fact, the Giants traded him and he goes over
• 32:43
  there to Seattle and McDonald goes over there and develops him
• 32:46
  even more. This guy has gone through layers
• 32:48
  in his career and now he's becoming elite pass rusher, an
• 32:52
  elite defensive player, elite defensive lineman.
• 32:55
  Going from The Jets to the Giants and now going to a team
• 32:59
  that is giving him an opportunity to become an elite
• 33:01
  player says a lot about the team.
• 33:03
  Their secondary is sensational, speedy, absolutely sensational.
• 33:07
  What Seattle does and what the way they put pressure up and,
• 33:09
  and, and they make you, they force you to throw the ball into
• 33:12
  places feel so very uncomfortable doing.
• 33:14
  Kyle Shanahan had no answer, no answer to Seattle's defense,
• 33:20
  none whatsoever. By the I believe by the second
• 33:23
  quarter, I think Kyle Shanahan was waving the red flag.
• 33:26
  I, I really do believe he knew that there was no way in hell
• 33:29
  they were coming back in this game.
• 33:31
  And that says a lot about who McDonald is and the way he
• 33:34
  coaches. The way the place think about
• 33:36
  it, before this game, everybody was talking about the board
• 33:39
  being, whoa, let's watch. Let's go see these guys
• 33:43
  celebrate what they did, winning the conference and dancing and
• 33:46
  prancing around and drinking wine like they won a Super Bowl.
• 33:48
  They were going to a Super Bowl. And and that was something that
• 33:52
  IA lot of people believe they were going to mimic and and and
• 33:55
  try to attack going into the game.
• 33:57
  San Francisco. Well, ladies and gentlemen,
• 34:00
  before the game started and after the game, the only team
• 34:02
  that's dancing and prancing around is the same team that was
• 34:05
  doing it before the season end ended.
• 34:08
  It was Seattle. They absolutely embarrassed the
• 34:12
  San Francisco 49ers with George Kittle.
• 34:15
  Not with George Kittle. You could put Nick Bosa there,
• 34:19
  Warner, it doesn't matter who was there.
• 34:21
  I don't think they stood a chance against the Seattle
• 34:25
  Seahawks team. They had a game plan.
• 34:26
  They out outsmarted Robert Salar and outplay called Kyle
• 34:31
  Shanahan. That is the facts, Jack and
• 34:34
  that's all I'm going to say about that.
• 34:35
  There is nothing else to say about about this game but utter
• 34:39
  embarrassment by San Francisco putting up and laying up a lousy
• 34:44
  goose egg. Be in that.
• 34:45
  Guess where the Super Bowl is going to be this year, Speedy?
• 34:48
  Oh yeah. San Francisco?
• 34:49
  Remember the last time it was in San Francisco?
• 34:51
  Who was playing in it? Oh, it was.
• 34:54
  It was the Broncos, I believe. No, it wasn't.
• 34:57
  Was it the IT was the Broncos and the Panthers, I'm pretty
• 34:59
  sure. No, it wasn't the last time they
• 35:01
  played in San Francisco. Speedy was the San Francisco
• 35:06
  49ers and the Baltimore Ravens. Remember when the lights went
• 35:10
  out? That was New Orleans.
• 35:11
  You sure that was new? That was in New Orleans, I
• 35:12
  remember because I had the conspiracy theory.
• 35:14
  Wait a second, you sure about that?
• 35:15
  Yes, because I remember I was, I was in high schools my senior
• 35:18
  year of high school. I remember I had the conspiracy
• 35:20
  theory of, oh, this is Sean Payton's revenge on the Saints
• 35:22
  organization. Oh OK, so maybe I was wrong
• 35:24
  about that it. Was the Broncos of the Panthers?
• 35:27
  It was the first year. The fact here is with with Kyle
• 35:29
  Shanahan in the position that Kyle Shanahan is going to be in
• 35:32
  the offseason is is put up or shut up now It's put up or shut
• 35:37
  up time for Kyle Shanahan in that San Francisco 49ers team.
• 35:41
  Because I we're not going to get into Robert Seller big thing
• 35:44
  because we're going to talk about a little bit later, but
• 35:46
  this is a team that's going into an offseason once again failing.
• 35:51
  And Kyle Shanahan, all he knows is fail, failure because this
• 35:55
  guy is not won a Super Bowl. Every time he's gone to the
• 35:57
  Super Bowl, he's failed as an offensive coordinator, as a head
• 36:00
  coach. He is an absolute failure.
• 36:02
  And then going into a divisional game where everybody thought
• 36:04
  that this was going to be somewhat of a game, somewhat of
• 36:07
  a challenge because of the way Brock Purdy was playing in the
• 36:09
  play call. And Kyle Shanahan, what he did
• 36:11
  was a masterful thing last week and just lay up at a lousy goose
• 36:15
  egg says to me one thing and one thing only.
• 36:18
  I don't want to see ESPN. I don't want to see Cbsi don't
• 36:20
  want to see anybody Bleacher Report or anybody interview Ed.
• 36:24
  And I'm saying this Ed McCaffrey and I'm saying this from the
• 36:27
  heart or Mike Shanahan. Like they want something like,
• 36:30
  Oh my God, they they have a chance to do something great.
• 36:33
  I remember when, and I'll say this, Kyle, it wasn't Kyle
• 36:38
  Shanahan. It was it was I'm trying
• 36:44
  Christian Mccaffrey's mom sitting there and she when they
• 36:47
  mentioned the Super Bowl that they lost against Kansas City,
• 36:50
  she got up and she she rolled her eyes like they should have
• 36:54
  won the game should have could have, would have.
• 36:55
  Here's the reason why you lost that game because she stopped
• 36:58
  running the ball to who your son that was obviously didn't get
• 37:02
  the rock enough in the fourth quarter, which if they got the
• 37:05
  rock enough in that in the in the fourth quarter, maybe they
• 37:08
  beat the Kansas City Chiefs. Maybe they shocked the world and
• 37:11
  knock off the great Patrick Mahomes in D Reed, but they
• 37:15
  didn't. You know why?
• 37:15
  Because they're an absolute joke.
• 37:17
  All right, before we transition to the next game, we have a we
• 37:19
  have a caller. Our 49ers fan of our network,
• 37:22
  Mr. Brian Snow, is on the phone. Brian, let's hear you.
• 37:26
  Arrow, I'm going to playfully yell at you.
• 37:29
  I can't. Wait.
• 37:31
  I can't wait. No, I'm kidding.
• 37:34
  I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
• 37:36
  What you guys said are absolute facts and I got, I got no
• 37:41
  argument. I sat and called that game
• 37:43
  Saturday night and I was embarrassed.
• 37:47
  I've been a 49er fan since 1980 and I've seen my share of
• 37:52
  clunkers even under the quote UN quote great Jet York's
• 37:55
  leadership. But what happened Saturday night
• 37:58
  put an end to that era as far as I'm concerned.
• 38:02
  It may be time for Kyle Shanahan and company to just push the
• 38:07
  puncher and blow it up and start a game because you got 4, maybe
• 38:13
  five players, two of them on injured reserve in terms of Nick
• 38:17
  Bosa and Fred Warner. And you can build.
• 38:22
  You can build with them, but it's just going to take a few
• 38:24
  years to do so. But you got to bring in some
• 38:27
  fresh minds, some good minds to rebuild, to rebuild that.
• 38:33
  And as far as the two Super Bowls that they played in with,
• 38:37
  with Kyle Shanahan, both of those should have been wins.
• 38:40
  First of all, Raheem Mostert should have run for 200 yards in
• 38:45
  that game. And a hundred of those should
• 38:47
  have come in the fourth quarter because they had the Chiefs on
• 38:51
  the ropes and they didn't knock them out.
• 38:54
  They had they had the Chiefs on the rolls twice, once in Vegas
• 38:58
  and once in Miami, both Super Bowls 54 and 58 and they didn't
• 39:05
  deliver the knockout punch. I have a problem with that.
• 39:08
  I have a big problem with that. And since that's and since those
• 39:12
  two Super Bowls happen, it's been, as you say, best Errol.
• 39:17
  And I know I owe you an appearance on Snowman in the
• 39:19
  morning. I've been revamping and put
• 39:21
  putting everything back together.
• 39:23
  It's been in the emotive words of Joe Beningo.
• 39:28
  What a disgrace. And that's all I got.
• 39:33
  And you said it best. And that's a 49er fan, ladies
• 39:36
  and gentlemen, a guy that I, I've come to respect.
• 39:39
  He, he does do all the calls for the 49ers every single week.
• 39:42
  He's he's a die hard 49er fan. And I'm talking about the Joe
• 39:46
  Montana era. I'm talking about this young
• 39:49
  era. This is this is a guy that's
• 39:50
  been following them for years and he speaks the truth.
• 39:53
  And, and to me, I think they should break everything up.
• 39:56
  And that means Kyle Shannon and John Lynch get rid of them all.
• 39:59
  Start over, start from scratch. They got to start.
• 40:03
  They got to start over because if they try to run it back with
• 40:05
  this group, considering Seattle not only not not only socked
• 40:09
  them in the mouth, but kicked them in the stomach and kicked
• 40:11
  them in the ass, what are they going to?
• 40:13
  Where are they going to go from here?
• 40:14
  That's why Sal is gone, Kubiak's next, and then Shanahan's going
• 40:21
  to be the lone wolf. What are you going to do, bring
• 40:23
  Steve Wilkes back in? Steve Wilkes got lucky for six
• 40:26
  games in San Francisco in 2023 and let and LED them to the
• 40:30
  Super Bowl. But in listening to an interview
• 40:32
  with their fabulous voice, Greg Papa, another cancer survivor
• 40:36
  who's near and dear to my heart, he lost the locker room.
• 40:40
  He lost the locker room. And you can have a team as proud
• 40:43
  as the 49ers have coordinators be on a revolving door and
• 40:49
  continue to lose the locker room.
• 40:52
  We've seen it before with many. We've seen it before with many
• 40:55
  Super Bowl champions that have fallen off the radar, especially
• 41:00
  in football. Sean Payton.
• 41:01
  Sean Payton in New Orleans, Dan Reeves in Denver.
• 41:04
  Now, Dan Reeves with the New York Giants in 1993, when they
• 41:10
  miraculously, and I mean this got to the playoffs in 1993,
• 41:14
  what happened? Ricky Waters happened and they
• 41:17
  had to blow and, and they had to blow it up then.
• 41:20
  So they, they, they got us, they, they got to start over.
• 41:25
  They, they, they got, they, they got to start over.
• 41:28
  And this is coming from a fellow who's followed the 49ers since
• 41:31
  1980 and has been an insider from my own website since 2003.
• 41:37
  They they got to blow it up. They, they have to blow it up.
• 41:40
  And they got to get some fresh players in there and they got to
• 41:43
  follow Seattle's pattern in. And in turn, Seattle followed
• 41:47
  San Francisco's pattern. Get them young, get them into
• 41:49
  the draft, coach them up, get the right coach in there.
• 41:53
  And they and they going to start over again.
• 41:56
  And Errol, you've heard people criticize me many times, but I
• 41:59
  don't tell the truth about my teams.
• 42:02
  Let me say this to those who think that you haven't listened
• 42:05
  to my show for once, have you? Because I call it like you
• 42:09
  listen to me every morning. I call it like I see it every
• 42:12
  day do. You feel better.
• 42:14
  I call it. Do you feel better now?
• 42:18
  I do. All right, I just want to, I
• 42:20
  just want to make sure you feel better because I, I wanted to
• 42:23
  give you your time to just like just to get the feeling out, you
• 42:27
  know, I, I know how it feels to to want to punch something
• 42:31
  because being a jet fan, I want to punch everything.
• 42:34
  Right. You want to think about this
• 42:35
  funny alternate universe? What if the 49ers actually do
• 42:38
  fire Kyle Shanahan? He becomes the Bambi Sala
• 42:40
  offensive coordinator. That would be so funny.
• 42:47
  I'm I can't wait for you. I can't wait for you to call.
• 42:50
  I can't wait for you to call in and and talk jets with me,
• 42:54
  because the other time that the other time that you did, I did
• 42:57
  nothing but put the camera on you and give you the floor.
• 43:00
  So I thank you for doing that, doing that for me tonight and I
• 43:03
  thank you guys for allowing me allowing me to call in.
• 43:05
  I love you guys very, very much. Thank you for having me.
• 43:08
  I appreciate. It Bryan Snow, ladies and
• 43:10
  gentlemen, the snowman in the morning.
• 43:11
  He airs every single morning on the Worldwide Sports Radio
• 43:15
  Network. He does such a great job all
• 43:17
  over or he does the play calling.
• 43:18
  He he calls so many games. He he does everything and I, I
• 43:22
  love him. He's a cancer.
• 43:24
  Obviously all the cancer awareness.
• 43:27
  He's gone through so much stuff and the guy is still taking,
• 43:29
  still doing so many great things and we love him.
• 43:32
  He is a great person and and one of the best voices on the radio
• 43:36
  today. So thank you, Brian, for joining
• 43:38
  us, and we love you. And now let's get into probably
• 43:41
  the worst game of the weekend. And boy, oh boy, was this a bad,
• 43:47
  watchable game. And if you're a Patriot fan, I
• 43:51
  want to hear you. Patriot fans, give me that.
• 43:53
  Drake May is this, and Drake May is that.
• 43:55
  Drake May had a horrible game, a horrible game.
• 44:00
  Now does it? Do I think Drake May is a bad
• 44:01
  quarterback? No, I think Drake May could be
• 44:04
  an elite quarterback in this league for many, many years.
• 44:06
  We'll see how his development works with Mike Vrabo.
• 44:09
  Mike Vrabo making excuses. We all know that he makes a lot
• 44:13
  of excuses after, you know, during the half, they asked him,
• 44:15
  what do you need to do to keep the fumbles away and, and, and
• 44:18
  keep the fumbles from happening. And he says, well, we got to
• 44:21
  protect the quarterback. Really.
• 44:23
  Because here's what I would have done if I was Drake May.
• 44:26
  Stop holding the ball in the pocket as long as you did.
• 44:28
  And this has been his problem all season long.
• 44:31
  How many fumbles has Drake May had in the game in the league
• 44:36
  all season long? He led the league in fumbles, He
• 44:39
  led the league in fumbles. And in this game, what did he
• 44:42
  have 3/4? Four and two lost 2.
• 44:45
  Lost and I I'll say this, you can't blame the Texans defense
• 44:49
  on this loss. You can't.
• 44:51
  I mean, Anderson was all over the place.
• 44:52
  This guy to me and I'll I'll give a shout out to Jeff because
• 44:56
  Jeff has told me many, many times what this kid is going to
• 44:59
  be in the league and how talented he is going to be.
• 45:02
  Anderson is one of the elite pass rushers in the league.
• 45:04
  There's no question that he does.
• 45:06
  It is him and he had his first all pro season of his career.
• 45:10
  He was sensational. He really was Danielle.
• 45:13
  Danielle Hunter was great too, man, 22 sacks in a game.
• 45:17
  You can't blame the front 7 of this team.
• 45:20
  They were all over the place. They were sensational all game
• 45:24
  long. Put pressure on Drake May, put
• 45:27
  pressure on the offensive line, the young offensive line of the
• 45:32
  the snowy, snowy New England fans and snowy New England
• 45:36
  offensive line. I will say this to me, CJ
• 45:42
  Stroud, you have to watch in this game is not the answer.
• 45:45
  He's not. And to me, I Speedy, you know, I
• 45:49
  was talking about, you know, before this show and who I blame
• 45:52
  for this. Hey, Coach.
• 45:54
  D'amico Ryan's. Yeah, D'amico Ryan's is to blame
• 45:57
  on not bringing in Mills. Mills was the reason why they
• 46:02
  went on that winning streak. And I I know everybody's going
• 46:04
  to say you got to trust your veteran quarterback, You got to
• 46:07
  trust your kid that you're drafting in the first round,
• 46:09
  this number two pick of the draft.
• 46:11
  But guess what? CJ Strout was not good all
• 46:13
  season long. In the second-half of the season
• 46:15
  against really bad talent. He showed up and he played
• 46:18
  decent, but he wasn't the elite quarterback he was the first two
• 46:22
  years in and especially his freshman year.
• 46:25
  We had one of the greatest seasons of fresh a freshman
• 46:27
  quarterback has had in the NFL. He made a load of mistakes.
• 46:31
  He threw 4 interceptions in this game.
• 46:33
  He did not show up in this game and really look like he wanted
• 46:36
  to play in this game. Do you know what his quarterback
• 46:38
  rating was in this game? Probably the worst in NFL
• 46:42
  history. Playoff in a divisional game In
• 46:45
  any game, any Series A 28. Oh wow, I was going to say 32.
• 46:50
  OK. A20.
• 46:51
  Eight. I was going to, I was going to
• 46:52
  be in the 30s. 28 I mean it was in a horrendous game for him and
• 46:59
  Drake made Drake made was not good. 16 for 27179 yards, 3
• 47:04
  touchdowns, 1 interception, 4 forced fumbles.
• 47:07
  He was not good. But guess what?
• 47:10
  The Patriots did enough and boy oh boy, that one handed grab in
• 47:14
  the fourth quarter by how do you pronounce his name?
• 47:17
  Booty Booty, Booty. Java's favorite wide receiver.
• 47:20
  I I mean you. Got to have the booty.
• 47:22
  Hey, Sean Booty, what mad catch that he made in this game.
• 47:27
  That one handed grab. One handed grab was sensation
• 47:30
  one of the greatest grabs I've seen in the playoffs in a very
• 47:33
  long time. That was sensational to watch.
• 47:36
  And I I know everybody would have thought, hey, Stefan Diggs
• 47:40
  was going to be that go to guy. No, when they needed booty to
• 47:43
  make a play, they were going to booty, especially in the fourth
• 47:45
  quarter. And I I, I he spread out the
• 47:48
  ball very well. Drake me.
• 47:49
  I can't say that he didn't gave the ball to Austin Hooper.
• 47:52
  He gave the ball to Douglas and Diggs and booty and Henry.
• 47:56
  Everybody touched the ball in this game, but Kyle Williams it.
• 48:02
  Was a six round rookie. Yeah, but I'm just saying
• 48:04
  everybody touched the ball and and I'll say this, if they play
• 48:08
  like this, they're not going to beat the Bo Knicks lost Broncos
• 48:15
  in Denver. But to me, Drake May is better
• 48:18
  than what is his name again, Shitham or Jared Stidham?
• 48:23
  Just just boy, you didn't get that joke, did you?
• 48:26
  Oh, I did. I mean, I just there's no way in
• 48:31
  hell that the Broncos are going to win this game against Drake
• 48:35
  may even though they have the home game now, unless the
• 48:38
  Broncos put up a great defensive game plan against Drake may in
• 48:41
  this defense on this offense. I, I'll say this Rabos defensive
• 48:47
  play calling and this defense was sensational.
• 48:49
  Their secondary was great. Jones was sensational.
• 48:51
  Gonzalez was Gonzalez was sensational.
• 48:54
  And I'll say this, all the teams that passed up on Christian
• 48:57
  Gonzalez. Oh, oh, the Patriots.
• 49:01
  And, and I'll say this, yes, Bill Belichick is laughing to
• 49:05
  the bank because he was Bill Belichick's last, I think last
• 49:09
  first round draft. He was he was the 17th overall
• 49:11
  pick when a lot of people thought he was the top ten
• 49:13
  corner definitely. And then maybe a top five
• 49:16
  corner. Now Seattle obviously looks
• 49:17
  smart taking Witherspoon because Witherspoon is a great too.
• 49:19
  But there are a lot of other teams that took some corners
• 49:22
  that have already been cut from their rosters that don't look as
• 49:25
  bright, right? Now, it was horrible to watch.
• 49:27
  This is the worst football you could possibly watch.
• 49:29
  And when you look at the score, you're going to say, well, how
• 49:31
  could you say that? I mean, it was a high scoring
• 49:33
  game, 28 to 16. I it was something that if
• 49:38
  you're a football thing, you don't want to watch.
• 49:40
  Yeah, if you like good defense, maybe, But it wasn't even the
• 49:43
  defenses forcing the fumbles. Except I, I guess I, I would say
• 49:46
  the Texans were, but they were just, to me, CJ Strout's
• 49:51
  mistakes were his mistakes and his mistakes only.
• 49:54
  He made more mistakes than I could even try to compare to any
• 49:59
  player, any quarterback in history in the playoffs.
• 50:02
  I don't even think a hurt Peyton Manning would have made as many
• 50:05
  mistakes as is a guy of CJ Stroud's talent.
• 50:09
  I mean, seriously, Peyton Manning at the tail end of his
• 50:11
  career when he won a Super Bowl, he was not good, but he made the
• 50:14
  throws that he needed to make to win a Super Bowl against the
• 50:17
  Carolina Panthers. This guy did not show up.
• 50:21
  He looked like he didn't want to be there.
• 50:23
  He looked like he was completely beat in the first half of the
• 50:26
  game. Speedy.
• 50:26
  Yeah, and we've heard over the we've seen it over the last like
• 50:29
  15 years or so when before Houston became more relevant
• 50:33
  franchise because they were a pretty bad the 1st 10 years of
• 50:35
  their existence. But the Texans were always like
• 50:38
  a a great team that just needed the quarterback for a while.
• 50:40
  They had TJ Yates and Case Keenum and all these other
• 50:43
  random rotational guys. They overpaid Brock Osweiler
• 50:46
  after they won the Super Bowl with the Broncos.
• 50:49
  Yes, yes, you're trying to forget that one.
• 50:52
  I'm sure your son is too Java, but they gave him that
• 50:55
  ridiculous contract and then they got to Sean Watson.
• 50:57
  Obviously he was good in the playoffs for a little while, but
• 50:59
  then obviously that flamed out. But now CJ Stradley bringing in
• 51:02
  is the number two overall pick was supposed to be this
• 51:04
  allegedly most talented guy in that draft class.
• 51:07
  He didn't go number one. I thought Bright Shung was
• 51:09
  better, but most people thought Straw was better and he had that
• 51:12
  unbelievable rookie year. And obviously the expectation
• 51:14
  will be a lot higher. He's kind of fallen to that,
• 51:16
  kind of just mediocre. Falling flat on his.
• 51:18
  Face and I don't think he's reached that level where he
• 51:21
  thinks I I could just be a gay manager type and that's where.
• 51:25
  He tastes himself. That's where I think that he
• 51:27
  wasn't ready for that kind of thing with Mike Vrabel, a coach
• 51:30
  who's familiar with him. He coached him with the Titans,
• 51:33
  against him with the Titans. He has played Harold Landry
• 51:36
  that's played against him with the Titans, others with the
• 51:39
  Jaguars and Chase on and a bunch of others that played against
• 51:41
  him know his tendencies and they just exposed his weaknesses
• 51:45
  badly. You're right, the Texans defense
• 51:47
  did everything they. Got in that game it's not their
• 51:49
  fault and Jeff said something very interesting.
• 51:51
  OSU quarterbacks have always been bad in the NFL correct and
• 51:55
  and and I I thought this was going to change because I
• 51:58
  thought CJ Stroud was going to change the whole thought to
• 52:00
  that. Now, I don't know what saying
• 52:03
  it's going to be. Maybe he's the best one.
• 52:04
  We'll see how that all works out.
• 52:06
  And and more, more than likely he goes to the New York Jets and
• 52:10
  absolutely bombs out. So it it's typical The Jets
• 52:13
  draft saying and he is a completely bomb.
• 52:15
  Thrust. I don't know The Jets.
• 52:16
  The Jets are usually bet worse at cursing Ohio State wide
• 52:18
  receivers. I'm just saying, I mean Ohio
• 52:20
  State wide wide receivers are good.
• 52:21
  I mean we. We.
• 52:22
  Wilson finally broke it, but after the Devin Smith and Steven
• 52:25
  Hill era. No, but I'm saying that most
• 52:28
  first round Ohio State Buckeye wide receivers are pretty damn
• 52:31
  good. OK, so I, I just my question
• 52:34
  here is, is how is how bad is this game going to be next week
• 52:39
  in Denver? Are we going to watch a Drake
• 52:42
  made complete passes? Are we going to watch Stidham
• 52:45
  out class and out play an organization that drafted him in
• 52:49
  the seventh round? I, I don't know what to believe,
• 52:51
  but here's what I do know. CJ Strout is on the hot seat.
• 52:56
  He's on the hot seat. There is no way this
• 52:59
  organization in the offseason. And by the way, Mills is a free
• 53:01
  agent. A. 100%.
• 53:04
  Well, yeah, it's year 3, so they have to decide on a fifth year
• 53:07
  option, which they will probably give him.
• 53:08
  But we were talking about even if like he had a good game and
• 53:11
  maybe they make a run to a Super Bowl, maybe pay him this
• 53:13
  offseason a good contract, now you can't even do.
• 53:15
  That you can't, no, you cannot do that because Mills, to me,
• 53:18
  play better. And D'amico Ryan should have let
• 53:20
  Mills play you. You should have went ride or die
• 53:23
  with all the guys on your team. And I know you're going to ride
• 53:26
  or die with your starting quarterback.
• 53:28
  I know that's the guy you drafted, but Mills was the one
• 53:30
  that helped you get there. You're going to ride or die with
• 53:32
  that guy. We've seen backup quarterbacks
• 53:35
  take teams to a Super Bowl. We've seen that before.
• 53:37
  So why can't we see that again? So remember the Tampa Bay
• 53:41
  Buccaneers? More crimes than not too.
• 53:43
  And then that turns into them getting another contract and and
• 53:47
  extending their career. I'm telling you right now, if
• 53:49
  I'm The Jets. Might be the case.
• 53:51
  I'm reaching out to Mills agent in the Aussies.
• 53:53
  I think he's a free agent. I'm absolutely reaching out to
• 53:56
  Mills agent and trying to bring him in.
• 53:58
  That's the guy I'm looking for. And there are other teams are
• 54:01
  gonna be looking at Mills too. But he has proven that he can
• 54:05
  play as a quarterback in this league and he's played
• 54:08
  efficient. I, I talked to Jeff about this
• 54:09
  before and I said, what do you think about Mills?
• 54:12
  He says Mills is competent quarterback.
• 54:13
  He's one of the more competent backup quarterbacks in the
• 54:15
  league. I've talked to a lot of experts
• 54:17
  about some of these guys in the league and who you what backup
• 54:20
  quarterback would you start in the future if he becomes
• 54:23
  available? And a lot of guys like Mills, I,
• 54:25
  I think that's a guy that's a find.
• 54:27
  And if you're an organization looking for that guy or looking
• 54:30
  for a guy or a diamond in a rough, that's the guy in Tamika
• 54:33
  Ryan's completely struck out on this, completely struck out on
• 54:36
  this. And that's why they're not
• 54:38
  moving on. That's why the Texans in that
• 54:39
  dominant defense. If, if the Texans win this game,
• 54:42
  the Texans, Texans beat the Broncos and, and maybe win the
• 54:45
  Super Bowl this year. I think the way they way
• 54:47
  Anderson is playing and Hunter is playing, they're as good of a
• 54:51
  tandem as anybody we've seen in the league.
• 54:54
  And to watch them go down the way they did, yes, it was
• 54:56
  snowing, but there's no excuse to it to to make the excuses
• 55:00
  that they made with the offensive side of the ball was
• 55:02
  just absolutely putrid. Say a lot about Tamika Ryan's in
• 55:06
  his play calling. Yeah, on the Patriots standpoint
• 55:08
  too, I do want to bring that up because the the Broncos are
• 55:11
  still going to apply pressure to them where the Texans, they now
• 55:14
  they're maybe tested with facing that good of a pass rush.
• 55:17
  They're going to have to adjust to play differently on offense
• 55:19
  than they did because Drake May, his reads were not great,
• 55:22
  especially in the in the second in quarter.
• 55:24
  I thought that's where I think two of those fumbles happening
• 55:26
  and then the one he lost was in the third quarter and it really
• 55:29
  he really only looked like he was crisp maybe towards the
• 55:31
  fourth quarter. But at that point, like you
• 55:33
  said, the Texans defense is going to be tired at that point
• 55:35
  because of how ballovers they've been on the field because the CJ
• 55:37
  strike kept turning the ball over.
• 55:39
  They can't have that kind of game plan against the Broncos
• 55:41
  and expect to, even if they do play Jarrett Stidham because
• 55:44
  that's where the route they're going.
• 55:46
  Sean Payton's a smart coach. This is a really good
• 55:48
  championship caliber defense. Patriots have a good defense,
• 55:51
  but it's not a championship caliber defense like you see the
• 55:53
  Broncos, the Texans, even the Seahawks like teams like that.
• 55:57
  They can't afford to play like that.
• 55:59
  As sloppy as they were, they're not going to be able to run the
• 56:00
  ball as effectively either as they did in this game or on J
• 56:02
  Stevenson. I believe it's 75 yards in this
• 56:04
  game. Henderson got it going in the
• 56:06
  second-half a little more, but the Broncos can stop the run a
• 56:09
  lot better too. And I they can't be comfortable
• 56:12
  with the way they played and expect to be able to go to a
• 56:14
  Super Bowl nevertheless win 1. What do you what do you think
• 56:17
  the Broncos have to do from their end?
• 56:19
  Obviously not having Bo Nicks that they're going to have to
• 56:22
  change up to to try and win this.
• 56:23
  Game. I've got it.
• 56:24
  Ron. Ron, run.
• 56:27
  That's it. And it's interesting there is a
• 56:29
  practice window. Maybe he'll play for JK Dobbins.
• 56:32
  We'll see. The other thing is run with
• 56:34
  their receivers, too. Mims is a speedy guy.
• 56:37
  They could use a lot of the rookies that they, a lot of the
• 56:39
  rookies they drafted later. Gadget guys are going to.
• 56:41
  Sean Payton's a great gadget caller, so he is going to try to
• 56:45
  use gadget plays. I don't know if there's any wide
• 56:48
  receivers that at one point of their careers have been a
• 56:51
  quarterback in high school or something of that magnitude.
• 56:55
  If there are, we've seen some crazy things by Sean Payton.
• 56:58
  This guy is the masterful, he's a masterful coach that likes to
• 57:02
  use trick plays and, and gadget plays over the years.
• 57:05
  So am I going to be crazy to believe that something that
• 57:09
  somebody like John Payton's going to have some cut, some
• 57:11
  kind of thing drawn up or some kind of play drawing up or how
• 57:14
  many players are going to be drawn up in the game in the
• 57:16
  first or second quarter that can absolutely devalue the
• 57:20
  opportunity to take over this game?
• 57:22
  I, I think it might and, and, and, and again, this defense is
• 57:25
  elite. It is elite, but they're going
• 57:27
  to have to show up in the big parts of this game and shut down
• 57:29
  Drake May. Drake May is still a quality
• 57:32
  quarterback. You can't say that he's not.
• 57:34
  And they're going to have to put pressure like the Texans did if
• 57:37
  they plan to beat him. Before we move on to the Bears
• 57:39
  and the Rams game, the Jabba, you were talking about how many
• 57:41
  trick plays A-Team should do too.
• 57:43
  Like the Bears and the Rams will play fearless that we saw.
• 57:46
  We've seen the Broncos at times play fearless with some of their
• 57:49
  reverses. They can't back off now just
• 57:51
  because they have a backup quarterback in and just all of a
• 57:54
  sudden be too conservative because I can burn them so.
• 57:58
  Fair. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
• 58:01
  the final game of the week was a doozy.
• 58:05
  Boy, oh boy, was it a doozy. And if you're a Rams fan, you,
• 58:12
  you were sweating. I was sweating.
• 58:15
  Taking a deep breath, that's what you're doing.
• 58:17
  You were sweating because what Caleb Williams did in the fourth
• 58:21
  quarter and I don't I don't have to talk about anything more than
• 58:24
  the. Fourth quarter, give a damn what
• 58:26
  anybody says to do what he did. Throw off his back foot, rotate
• 58:31
  his hips like people that haven't thrown a ball to run
• 58:36
  back and throw that 50 yards in the air off your back foot to be
• 58:39
  able to rotate. Yeah, they fell out of position
• 58:42
  or whatever. I don't care.
• 58:43
  You can say whatever you want. That was one of the most
• 58:47
  impressive things I've ever seen because I know how hard it is to
• 58:50
  throw an object. But what he did right there, I,
• 58:53
  my mouth dropped and I don't get impressed by people throwing
• 58:56
  things a lot. But that right there was
• 58:59
  something where I'm just like you, you can't, you can't
• 59:03
  describe it like how hard that is in the moment.
• 59:07
  And we're like, he could do that in any aspect, but like in that
• 59:11
  moment to be able to have the awareness and just, and you've
• 59:15
  talked about it, you, you were sold on Caleb from the get go.
• 59:18
  8th grade. In the way he was as an athlete
• 59:20
  and like as we seen him grow in the second-half and become the
• 59:25
  better quarterback that you said he was from the get go, to be
• 59:29
  able to slow the game down and do those things, that was
• 59:32
  absolutely one of the most unbelievable throws I've seen
• 59:35
  from a quarterback. I've been wrong about certain
• 59:37
  quarterbacks, Zach Wilson, B1, but I was not wrong about Caleb
• 59:40
  Williams and nobody wants to give me any credit when I do
• 59:43
  pick the right. Actually, I know you don't.
• 59:45
  You did. But there are a lot of people
• 59:47
  that don't and and Caleb Williams is special.
• 59:50
  The things that he does off the back foot and moving inside and
• 59:54
  out of the pocket, how he escaped from those 3 defensive
• 59:57
  lineman and to get that ball off to Cole Commit was just just
• 1:00:01
  absolutely amazing. It really was.
• 1:00:03
  And that game was boring. It was defense, it was mistakes.
• 1:00:07
  There was just really, the first half was pathetic.
• 1:00:11
  And and the Rams, I thought they were going to put up points and
• 1:00:13
  I thought there was going to be chase, there was going to be
• 1:00:15
  high scoring and it was going to be a path all the way.
• 1:00:17
  If it goes to overtime, it would be like 35 to 30 or 37 to 42 or
• 1:00:24
  something of that magnitude. That was going to be, you know,
• 1:00:27
  Puka Nakua's day or something like that.
• 1:00:28
  It just wasn't it really wasn't. It was it, it to me, it was it
• 1:00:33
  was bad out. It was snowing.
• 1:00:35
  But there's no excuse. I know the the the field out
• 1:00:38
  there, it is grass and it's an old Chicago Bears stadium.
• 1:00:42
  But it it to me, the fans were loud at the Rams.
• 1:00:46
  It was cold. You can see Matthew Stafford,
• 1:00:48
  and I got to give Matthew Stafford, and I'll say this, I'm
• 1:00:53
  not a Sean McVeigh fan. Anybody that listens to the
• 1:00:55
  show. I'm not a Sean McVeigh fan.
• 1:00:57
  I got to give Sean McVeigh a little bit of credit for this
• 1:00:59
  because to travel all the way to Chicago, when everybody said
• 1:01:03
  that and they were practicing in 80° weather and they were using
• 1:01:09
  like this, I don't remember what they were saying before the
• 1:01:11
  game. They were putting things in
• 1:01:12
  their shoes and their gloves. And I'll get to that at the end
• 1:01:15
  of the cell. This crazy crap that they were
• 1:01:18
  putting to try to make sure that their feet and their hands were
• 1:01:20
  warm. It it says a lot about Sean
• 1:01:23
  McVay and and the way he believes in his team and the way
• 1:01:25
  he believes in his quarterback and Matthew Stafford.
• 1:01:28
  He didn't have one of his best days, but he did enough, enough
• 1:01:33
  to win this game. And that's scary to go to play
• 1:01:37
  the Rams in Seattle. That to me, Seattle should be
• 1:01:40
  afraid of the Rams because the Rams are finding ways to win
• 1:01:43
  games that honestly, a lot of people probably would have
• 1:01:46
  thought they were going to lose that game after Caleb completed
• 1:01:49
  that pass with 18 seconds left. I really believe going into
• 1:01:52
  overtime, Chicago was winning that game and Caleb Williams
• 1:01:55
  made a bad throw to curl through an interception and it looked
• 1:01:59
  like they were going to win the game.
• 1:02:00
  They it looked like Caleb Williams was confident and and
• 1:02:04
  Caleb Williams didn't cry. I mean, what we've known him to
• 1:02:07
  do over the years, especially at USC is cry when he loses the big
• 1:02:10
  game. He, he was a man about things.
• 1:02:13
  Even when he spoke to the press, he was man, he was a manly
• 1:02:16
  person and a player. That's something I got to give
• 1:02:19
  Caleb Williams a little bit of credit for because over the
• 1:02:21
  years that we've watched him, he's done things that you make
• 1:02:24
  you shake your head. But I, maybe it's been Johnson
• 1:02:28
  and, and, and I, I do believe Sean McVeigh cuffed it down Ben
• 1:02:31
  Johnson's throat. And if, if Ben Johnson came back
• 1:02:34
  and won that game, you know, Ben Johnson would have been as as
• 1:02:38
  loud and as rambunctious as he's been over the last couple of
• 1:02:42
  weeks. So I, I got to give the Rams a
• 1:02:45
  little bit of credit. It was back and forth in the
• 1:02:48
  fourth quarter. It was so fun to watch in the
• 1:02:51
  fourth quarter. The rest of the game was
• 1:02:53
  pathetic. And then the overtime, I, the
• 1:02:55
  Rams made a mistake. Matthew Stafford thought he lost
• 1:02:57
  it for his team. He he looked like he did and,
• 1:03:00
  and and and the Bears defense played very well put a lot of
• 1:03:04
  pressure. You got to give the Bears a lot
• 1:03:05
  of credit the defense in the way they they drew up some of these
• 1:03:08
  defensive play calling. It was fun to watch.
• 1:03:10
  And but the the, the play of the day and the play of the game and
• 1:03:14
  the play of the week was the unbelievable toss by Caleb
• 1:03:19
  Williams was absolutely amazing. If you want to pick something
• 1:03:22
  out of anything I saw this weekend, it was that it was
• 1:03:26
  special. Yeah, and you were talking about
• 1:03:27
  the the ability to make throws in so many different areas for
• 1:03:31
  any of these quarterbacks, too. Like you're making it, you're
• 1:03:34
  making it 20 yards back, essentially.
• 1:03:35
  With that much pressure on you, it's very hard for any
• 1:03:38
  quarterback to do. We talk about some of these Hail
• 1:03:40
  Marys. Aaron Rodgers have made the
• 1:03:42
  obviously the unbelievable escape that Eli Manning made in
• 1:03:44
  the Super Bowl against the Patriots, like just a throw,
• 1:03:48
  just an ability backtracking. That might be the best one that
• 1:03:51
  we've seen. And in the pressure of that kind
• 1:03:53
  of moment to have that kind of composure to do it in the
• 1:03:56
  playoffs is put is going to put Caleb Williams on another level
• 1:04:00
  before we get to I know Jeff on the phone.
• 1:04:01
  That's very I want to get to in a bit.
• 1:04:03
  You mentioned the Bears defense, though.
• 1:04:04
  This was the game I wanted to see their secondary get their
• 1:04:06
  tests in and they did that in the game.
• 1:04:07
  They held their own. The pass rush did very well, but
• 1:04:09
  the Rams just that much better and Chris Schuler harder for his
• 1:04:12
  defenses. All right.
• 1:04:13
  Are you ready to hear Jeff? All right, ladies and gentlemen,
• 1:04:16
  Jeff from Tampa. Jeff, you could call back we.
• 1:04:19
  Could call back. I don't know if he got
• 1:04:20
  disconnected. He might have got disconnected,
• 1:04:22
  maybe he was a little upset. All right, Jeff, Jeff call back,
• 1:04:24
  I'll finish my thoughts on this game as well with the the Rams
• 1:04:27
  running game I think just was a little bit better.
• 1:04:28
  I think that was the main difference where the Bears, I've
• 1:04:31
  mentioned they're against the Rams top five run defense and
• 1:04:34
  we're not going to be able to get it going.
• 1:04:36
  And I worried on the inside run game they wouldn't be able to
• 1:04:38
  and they didn't. And I think that was a hard for
• 1:04:40
  them to overcome and be the well-rounded offense that they
• 1:04:42
  were supposed to be. And I think the Brams just had a
• 1:04:45
  little more when the Bears shut down Pokonukua, they had a good
• 1:04:47
  game plan for. Him.
• 1:04:48
  All right, we got Jeff on the phone.
• 1:04:50
  How are you my friends? I'm good, Earl.
• 1:04:53
  How are you of? Course you would say something
• 1:04:56
  stupid like that, but typical Jeff, what's up?
• 1:04:58
  Buddy, Caleb Williams is an absolute luck box.
• 1:05:02
  That's all he is, is an absolute luck box.
• 1:05:05
  That dude makes some worst throws you've ever seen.
• 1:05:10
  Jeff, I knew you were going to come out and try to attack
• 1:05:12
  something that I was going to say, but not.
• 1:05:15
  Attacking you? There's no attack there.
• 1:05:16
  Caleb Williams stinks. He does not.
• 1:05:19
  Every weapon in the world. He's got Roma, June say he's got
• 1:05:21
  DJ Moore, Colston, Loveland. Luther Burden is emerging.
• 1:05:25
  Cole Commet is on that team. How many more weapons do we have
• 1:05:28
  to give this guy? And we're still watching him
• 1:05:31
  fall down and throw terrible passes half the time.
• 1:05:34
  Jeff, when When a guy goes out there and makes a pass like that
• 1:05:38
  on national television at the end of a game with 18 seconds
• 1:05:41
  left of a game, you could say it's luck all you want.
• 1:05:44
  You could say whatever you want to say about it, it's still a
• 1:05:47
  pass. He made the pass and you got to
• 1:05:49
  give him credit. It was a it was a good pass, but
• 1:05:51
  you guys are all acting like no one else can do it.
• 1:05:53
  Josh Allen did it, but Lamar Jackson's done it.
• 1:05:56
  Patrick Mahomes has done it. It was 18.
• 1:05:58
  Seconds. You're naming probably the few
• 1:05:59
  that can. 18 seconds in the fourth quarter where your team
• 1:06:03
  is going to lose, they did that. When did they do that?
• 1:06:07
  Right. OK, So what about the fourth
• 1:06:09
  down conversions that he was throwing terrible passes earlier
• 1:06:11
  in the game? Does those not count?
• 1:06:13
  You make mistakes you make. Only the one he completed
• 1:06:15
  counts. See, the only one he completed.
• 1:06:18
  That was the only one he completed.
• 1:06:20
  On 4th he there was several. Yeah, they had some misses on
• 1:06:24
  4th down. Yes, obviously Ben Johnson's
• 1:06:26
  going to coach that way he coaches like Dan Campbell.
• 1:06:28
  There were. I'm not saying Caleb Williams
• 1:06:30
  had the most amazing game, but no, the Rams have a good
• 1:06:32
  defense, too. When they needed to make a
• 1:06:34
  throw, he made the throw and I you could sit here and you can.
• 1:06:38
  Argue it. Absolute luck boxed.
• 1:06:40
  It well, that's your opinion. I disagree with you.
• 1:06:42
  I think that obviously he had to know that Cole Commit was there.
• 1:06:47
  There's no way he didn't know that he was there.
• 1:06:49
  There's no way. Yeah, absolutely.
• 1:06:51
  Wearing the same jersey and he's got highs.
• 1:06:53
  Come on, He knew he was there. Dude, the way he moved inside
• 1:06:57
  and out of that pocket and escaped from three big defensive
• 1:07:01
  lineman and get that ball off on the back foot was since.
• 1:07:04
  So a little fast guy outruns 3 fat dudes.
• 1:07:07
  Little fast guy? Impressive thing you've ever.
• 1:07:09
  It's not little. I mean, A6263 quarterback is not
• 1:07:13
  small. He's like, he's probably like
• 1:07:15
  barely 6 feet probably. Two of those three guys were an
• 1:07:17
  interior rush. That's hard for quarterbacks.
• 1:07:19
  He's not 6 feet. In six years, a rush.
• 1:07:21
  You know what that means, Speedy, they're £350.
• 1:07:24
  If you can't outrun someone that's £350.
• 1:07:27
  You got it. You know damn well that these
• 1:07:29
  defensive lineman can run a 4546.
• 1:07:34
  They've done it before. So you can't sit here and tell
• 1:07:36
  me that they can't get at them and try to press.
• 1:07:39
  Them back in the league can outrun them.
• 1:07:41
  I disagree. Matthew.
• 1:07:42
  Safford, Ken. Matthew Stafford has a broken
• 1:07:46
  back and still can outrun them. You're out of your mind.
• 1:07:49
  You're out of your mind. I, I love color play.
• 1:07:51
  I typical Jeff, ladies and gentlemen, he will attend.
• 1:07:54
  Matthew Stafford still in the playoffs because every time he
• 1:07:57
  throws A touchdown, they show Kelly Stafford and that's worth
• 1:08:00
  it. Typical.
• 1:08:02
  Typical. Why?
• 1:08:03
  Because he was with Georgia, too.
• 1:08:06
  The great Georgia quarterback, by the way, and great George?
• 1:08:09
  No, but have you seen Kelly Stafford?
• 1:08:11
  He throws A touchdown pass. They show Kelly Stafford.
• 1:08:13
  That's America winning America's back, baby.
• 1:08:17
  Leave it up to Jeff, ladies and gentlemen, giving us his take on
• 1:08:21
  Caleb Williams. Amazing.
• 1:08:22
  And you're not giving enough credit to that New England
• 1:08:25
  defense, by the way. What are you talking about?
• 1:08:27
  I gave him a lot of credit. Were you, are you listening to
• 1:08:29
  this? That was all CJ Shroud.
• 1:08:31
  No defense is pretty. I said their secondary was
• 1:08:33
  amazing. Jones was amazing.
• 1:08:35
  God was a. Secondary, that was amazing.
• 1:08:37
  It was their mind. Oh dude, it was their secondary.
• 1:08:40
  Their safeties exact. They hovered over every single
• 1:08:43
  wide receiver. Anything.
• 1:08:45
  Dude, they were up the world. That secondary was amazing.
• 1:08:48
  Right, but go and look right but go and look at Woody Marks first
• 1:08:50
  half stats. Do you know what he rushed for
• 1:08:52
  in the first half? Dude.
• 1:08:54
  He he had eight carries for seven yards and one of of woody
• 1:09:00
  Marks and one of the interceptions Stroud through was
• 1:09:03
  because to Levon Chaison absolutely murder Stroud.
• 1:09:07
  Woody Marks we arguing about woody marks, is that where?
• 1:09:12
  We're not. No, no, no.
• 1:09:13
  It's the fact that the Patriots have a top five rush number one
• 1:09:17
  run defense. Yeah, they don't.
• 1:09:18
  Nobody said that they don't, and nobody said that they weren't
• 1:09:21
  good. But when you can't run on a
• 1:09:22
  team, you have to pass. That's the whole thing.
• 1:09:24
  Yeah, and to me, CJ Straub could have passed against any defense.
• 1:09:28
  He was going to throw those interceptions.
• 1:09:30
  One hand washes the other in football, right?
• 1:09:32
  If you have an amazing pass rush, it makes the quarterback's
• 1:09:35
  jobs easier. And they were getting home.
• 1:09:37
  I mean, mostly because the Texans were playing with it.
• 1:09:41
  Ended up being a third Stringer at right tackle, right?
• 1:09:45
  Because they were without. Who were they without?
• 1:09:49
  I think it was Earth 3, their rookie.
• 1:09:51
  No Earth 3 was there. It was around their right
• 1:09:53
  tackle. It wasn't.
• 1:09:55
  Their backup got hurt and they had to go to a third Stringer.
• 1:09:59
  There is no they. Were hurt.
• 1:10:00
  They were hurt. I don't care.
• 1:10:02
  To me, D'amico Ryan's to me should have done what I thought
• 1:10:06
  he should have done in the second-half is bringing Mills.
• 1:10:09
  See what you're what you're going to get at, what you're
• 1:10:11
  going to get out of Mills. You weren't getting enough out
• 1:10:12
  of Stroud. At least bring him in and see
• 1:10:15
  what you have. Maybe he makes one or two
• 1:10:17
  acrobatic passes, gets his team wounded up and maybe they they
• 1:10:22
  find a way to win the game or find a way they take this
• 1:10:24
  overtime and and and find a way to beat the Patriots in New
• 1:10:27
  England. I don't know.
• 1:10:28
  But the way D'amico Ryan's was calling the game and it really
• 1:10:32
  in the second-half has you to me, has me questioning if he's
• 1:10:36
  the right guy for the job. That's just my opinion.
• 1:10:38
  I mean, maybe not, but you can't bench CJ Stroud because they're
• 1:10:41
  going to end up signing him to an extension.
• 1:10:43
  Well, they're making a mistake. And not because they want to,
• 1:10:45
  but because they have. To yeah, I know they're making.
• 1:10:47
  A mistake, yeah. They're a bad quarterback
• 1:10:48
  franchise overall, so they got to get.
• 1:10:51
  Some, I mean it's not even just that, but like look around the
• 1:10:53
  league. How do you think truer got a
• 1:10:54
  contract? When you look around the league,
• 1:10:56
  there's nobody else that can come in.
• 1:10:58
  It's why Justin Fields keeps getting jobs, because there's no
• 1:11:01
  quarterbacks out. There's why Russell Wilson kept
• 1:11:03
  getting a job. There's no one out there to come
• 1:11:06
  in and replace them. So if they're not going with CJ
• 1:11:08
  Stroud, what are they going to go with?
• 1:11:09
  What are they going to be The Jets and draft a quarterback
• 1:11:11
  every year? There he is, ladies and
• 1:11:13
  gentlemen. Jeff.
• 1:11:15
  I'm a Jets guy. I'm a Jets guy.
• 1:11:17
  I'm tired of drafting quarter. Throw me a curveball, ladies and
• 1:11:20
  gentlemen. Let's talk about The Jets, baby.
• 1:11:23
  Let's talk about you and me. Buddy, I'm a Jets guy.
• 1:11:27
  You know, I'm a Jets guy, but it's like it's and we go through
• 1:11:30
  quarterbacks. Let's talk about all the good
• 1:11:32
  things and the bad things that they'll be.
• 1:11:37
  I mean, you can't. You can't.
• 1:11:39
  Do it otherwise like. That's why he's probably going
• 1:11:41
  to get an extension instead. Like that, Speedy?
• 1:11:44
  Oh, yeah. Do you do you just want to be
• 1:11:46
  the New Orleans Saints? Is that what they want to be?
• 1:11:48
  And they when they can't figure out quarterback.
• 1:11:52
  I, I don't, no, I, I don't. But hey, as as a Jet fan or an
• 1:11:57
  Eagles guy or anybody you want to point or you want to play
• 1:12:00
  darts with, I could say this CJ Strout is not the answer.
• 1:12:05
  D'amico Ryan's has proven to me that when the going gets tough
• 1:12:09
  and you need to make a decision to make that decision, you make
• 1:12:12
  the right decision. You make the decision to say
• 1:12:15
  that this quarterback did not have it that day.
• 1:12:18
  You take him out, you show everybody that you're going to
• 1:12:21
  go and try to get that win and he didn't he.
• 1:12:24
  What happened to CJ Stroud? Rookie year?
• 1:12:26
  CJ Stroud was unstoppable. Yeah, well, I don't know what
• 1:12:29
  happened to him, but if the Grinch stole Christmas, CJ
• 1:12:33
  Stroud stole the Texans heart. This offseason, because they're
• 1:12:40
  going to be watching golf or playing golf and watching the
• 1:12:43
  Super Bowl and they're not going to be in it.
• 1:12:44
  That's. For sure.
• 1:12:45
  They were never going to win anyways.
• 1:12:46
  Do you realize, like, think about this, right?
• 1:12:48
  Everyone gives like, Denver love because Denver's a hard place to
• 1:12:51
  like, win, go and win. Everyone gives Seattle love.
• 1:12:54
  Oh, it's so loud. When was the last time a road
• 1:12:56
  team won in New England? No.
• 1:12:59
  I got you man. It's a tough place to play and
• 1:13:01
  win. The Frabal got you.
• 1:13:03
  Jeff, we got to. Go and that was like 5 years ago
• 1:13:07
  dude. Jeff.
• 1:13:08
  And before that, it was crazy. Jeff, we love you and you can
• 1:13:12
  call back whenever you want. I don't care what.
• 1:13:14
  No, no, no, no, no. I can't do that.
• 1:13:16
  This is because someone isn't there.
• 1:13:18
  Like that's what he said, and I don't, I don't want to make
• 1:13:20
  that. Person no you can call when he's
• 1:13:21
  there too. We.
• 1:13:22
  Could call when. Every If that person gets mad, I
• 1:13:24
  don't know what I'll do. You can call big deal you.
• 1:13:26
  Can call when he's there too. We call whenever you want, We
• 1:13:29
  love. You know how much of it he told
• 1:13:30
  me not to. You can.
• 1:13:32
  We just told you you can, so we override.
• 1:13:35
  You can go against him. Do you know how much of a big
• 1:13:37
  deal he is? Goodbye.
• 1:13:39
  Goodbye, Jeff. Thank you.
• 1:13:40
  Jeff. Thank you, Jeff.
• 1:13:42
  There it is. The Lord and Savior of this show
• 1:13:46
  has reappeared from the depths of beyond Jeff from Tampa.
• 1:13:51
  That's a good way to thank you. I love the personalities that we
• 1:13:56
  bring on the show. I just love how the flow of the
• 1:13:58
  show has been working and it's been great.
• 1:14:01
  It's been such a success for all the transitions and and all the
• 1:14:06
  different stories that we get into.
• 1:14:07
  So and we give the best takes. I don't care what anybody says.
• 1:14:11
  Our takes are as good as anybody's and we go outside of
• 1:14:13
  the box. I'm sure nobody says the things.
• 1:14:16
  I mean, did anybody say, did anybody bring up McDermott going
• 1:14:20
  to The Jets? Did anybody even think to do
• 1:14:22
  that? I mean, Jets, The Jets haven't
• 1:14:24
  even thought to do that because they're dumb organization.
• 1:14:27
  So I, I just think our takes are fresh, new and interesting.
• 1:14:32
  And I think people that haven't listened to the show or has
• 1:14:36
  heard of the show should be listening to it.
• 1:14:38
  Understand that we are the best. And I will put this show against
• 1:14:41
  anybody and I'll, I'll, I'll take that to the grave.
• 1:14:44
  And when when it goes, when it comes to and when it goes to an
• 1:14:48
  opportunity and comes to an opportunity in the future, you
• 1:14:51
