0:49
Speaker 1: No one had any idea I was coming to NFL Network,
0:52
Speaker 1: including myself, basically until like three days before the season starts. Okay,
0:58
Speaker 1: I had no idea what shows I was I knew
1:00
Speaker 1: that I was going, but I didn't know what I
1:01

1:24
Speaker 1: you were so nice. And I can't say that I
1:27
Speaker 1: would have been the same if I was in your position.
1:28
Speaker 1: If some random person was just all of a sudden
1:31
Speaker 1: joining my show and I found out days before, I
1:33
Speaker 1: would have been like, what the heck. It would have
1:35
Speaker 1: taken me a sec to warm up. But you were
1:38
Speaker 1: kind and gracious to me from the get going. I
1:40
Speaker 1: told you I found I love you too, And I
1:42
Speaker 1: told you I found my notes about watching you when
1:45
Speaker 1: you were back on Fox, and the notes were like
1:48
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of numbers on the screen,
1:51
Speaker 1: charming hosts, very fun. I already liked you. We were
1:55
Speaker 1: just meant to be from the get go. I spend
1:57
Speaker 1: every single morning with you. You're the only person that
1:59
Speaker 1: I want to see that. I'm okay with seeing at
2:01
Speaker 1: like four am or whatever. God for a second time,
2:04
Speaker 1: we're in that chair. But I love working with you.
2:06
Speaker 1: I'm so happy to have you on this podcast because
2:08
Speaker 1: it is spooky season and you know that I love spookies.
2:11
Speaker 1: Of course. Um. I came up with a little game
2:13
Speaker 1: great called trick or Treat. Roll it. Please roll this
2:20
Speaker 1: out for God's sake, give me the spooky music. Okay, Well,
2:28
Speaker 1: this is just this game is spock got it? Thanks? Okay,
2:34
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you a much. It was like a
2:35
Speaker 1: trick or treat sound you were looking for. We were
2:37
Speaker 1: all staring at each other back ve spooky vibes. You
2:41
Speaker 1: should have rehearsed this game. Okay. I've got a bunch
2:45
Speaker 1: of topics, okay, and you're gonna tell me whether it's
2:48
Speaker 1: a trick bad or a treat good and you can elaborate. Okay, okay, okay,
2:52
Speaker 1: First things first, trick or treat Russell Wilson doing full
2:56
Speaker 1: hours long workouts on a plane to Lundon while his
3:00
Speaker 1: teammates are sleeping. I say, trick. I would hate this.
3:04
Speaker 1: I would say, sir, get back in your seat and
3:07
Speaker 1: go to sleep. This is definitely I mean, okay, it's awful.
3:14
Speaker 1: It's just it's a trade doing. But he's probably I
3:16
Speaker 1: think he might be like trolling all of us now,
3:19
Speaker 1: Like I think he has flipped the script completely and
3:21
Speaker 1: maybe he's just like, if I can get all of
3:23
Speaker 1: them to take so now he knows that literally an
3:26
Speaker 1: he does to be picked on. Yeah, so he might
3:29
Speaker 1: be right. I think he's just now totally leaning into
3:31
Speaker 1: the game and he's like, this is gonna be so funny.
3:34
Speaker 1: I kind of love that because when he was in
3:36
Speaker 1: his post, when he was in his um before the
3:38
Speaker 1: practice press or whatever, he was talking about it with
3:41
Speaker 1: a smirk on his face like he was just like, oh,
3:43
Speaker 1: you guys are gonna love this. I mean, he told
3:46
Speaker 1: us he had wolverine blood last week and that didn't play.
3:48
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's just an excellent point. He's just
3:52
Speaker 1: totally messing with us. So maybe it's maybe it's a
3:55
Speaker 1: little bit of a little bit of a trick, a
3:57
Speaker 1: little bit of a treat. Yeah, okay, I just think
3:58
Speaker 1: it's But if he was for real doing that, I
4:00
Speaker 1: would lose my freaking money and it would just drive
4:02
Speaker 1: me not to Somebody did that on my plane one
4:05
Speaker 1: time in my life. I think I've stood up and
4:07
Speaker 1: like stretched my legs and sat right back down because
4:08
Speaker 1: I was in parison. Okay, it's one thing for a minute,
4:10
Speaker 1: it's another thing for the whole hours. Counterpoint, what if
4:14
Speaker 1: it's Russell Wilson and you're just a normal person and
4:16
Speaker 1: you see him like working out next to you want
4:18
Speaker 1: a plane, that'd be kind of cool. Okay, but it's
4:19
Speaker 1: not just no, it's on a team plane. It's I
4:26
Speaker 1: would love it. I'd be the person that's like sneakily
4:29
Speaker 1: on their phone the whole thing. Ll Okay, trigger treats
4:34
Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions, come on. I mean that's why I
4:39
Speaker 1: if those of you that don't know Cynthia long suffering
4:42
Speaker 1: huge Lions, is that even a thing? I think this
4:47
Speaker 1: is like a really from there. It's like the most
4:50
Speaker 1: beautiful piece of terrible tasting candy on the planet. Because
4:54
Speaker 1: the problem is is like you want it, you love it,
4:56
Speaker 1: you start to like really like them, you start to
4:57
Speaker 1: believe in it, and then they just totally trick you
5:00
Speaker 1: got hard Knock's brain. Yeah, And I mean, and they're
5:03
Speaker 1: very charming, they're very lovable, Like there's nothing like even
5:06
Speaker 1: the owner, like all these people like hilarious, like they
5:09
Speaker 1: say silly stuff. Dan Campbell's just a total He's Jim.
5:13
Speaker 1: I just want them to be good so bad. I
5:15
Speaker 1: just want them to bed. They could be I was
5:19
Speaker 1: saying this last week, they could be five one at
5:21
Speaker 1: this point. One really really bad blow a game was
5:23
Speaker 1: against the Patriots, right and they didn't put a single
5:25
Speaker 1: score out. They weren't still in it in the fourth
5:27
Speaker 1: quarter with the gabblin. I know I'm saying. I'm saying,
5:31
Speaker 1: trick now, could be a treat later. I'll treat these
5:33
Speaker 1: say later. I hope you're right, Okay, Trick or treat
5:37
Speaker 1: the Packers. What the heck is going on with this team?
5:40
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers is like just outing the team all the time.
5:43
Speaker 1: We're about to play a clip from him talking about
5:46
Speaker 1: like some guys shouldn't be playing, some guys should not
5:48
Speaker 1: be playing right now, and some guys that are on
5:50
Speaker 1: the bench should be playing. Trick or treat. I think that,
5:52
Speaker 1: you know what, because I had such high hopes for them,
5:54
Speaker 1: like I had them going to the super Bowl because
5:56
Speaker 1: I thought they could figure it out. Their defense has
5:58
Speaker 1: really let them down too, So to me, this one's
6:01
Speaker 1: kind of easy. They're a total trick. That's they've just
6:03
Speaker 1: really been disappointing. It's you know, the world is better,
6:06
Speaker 1: like all of these quarterbacks have kind of been if
6:08
Speaker 1: you would have told me in the same year that
6:10
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, Tom Brady, Matt Ryan Russell Will said, you know,
6:13
Speaker 1: if all these people would kind of not work in
6:15
Speaker 1: the same year, Like, that's pretty wild, can I mean
6:19
Speaker 1: last week on game game morning, we were putting a
6:21
Speaker 1: fork in teams that were done. Forks were broken if
6:25
Speaker 1: you didn't the very forks always get broken when we're
6:27
Speaker 1: doing this. Sticking into a pumpkin not a good idea?
6:29
Speaker 1: Are you putting a fork in the Packers? No? Because
6:31
Speaker 1: that division is still, you know, not that great. So yeah, okay,
6:36
Speaker 1: trick or treat Tom and Giselle are they perfectly fine
6:39
Speaker 1: and we're just losers that have nothing going on in
6:42
Speaker 1: our lives? Four benched buzz today came out that Giselle
6:47
Speaker 1: has given him an ultimatum. We don't know what that
6:49
Speaker 1: ultimatum is, but to a trick or treat? Are we are?
6:52
Speaker 1: We just have nothing going on in our lives And
6:55
Speaker 1: they're totally fine and they're figuring it out or what
6:58
Speaker 1: they do. I mean, I don't think there. I don't
7:00
Speaker 1: know anything. Let me be clear. And I barely even
7:03
Speaker 1: follow any of this because I'm just like that I'm
7:05
Speaker 1: making you talk. I'm gonna be honest with you. I
7:07
Speaker 1: don't care. I just want him to be good at football,
7:10
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna be I'm gonna tell you. I think
7:12
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen is I think it's not good right now,
7:14
Speaker 1: but I think, like come May, June, it'll be fine.
7:17
Speaker 1: I went to this like Pumpkin Show night and there
7:20
Speaker 1: was like all these carvings, like maybe put this one
7:25
Speaker 1: in the back for now, guys. According to Mike Florio,
7:27
Speaker 1: the ultimatum is Tom Brady retires or she's quote gone
7:31
Speaker 1: for good, like right now, right now, I don't know
7:35
Speaker 1: whole season, Like hey, it's week you're here, come on,
7:38
Speaker 1: let's be right, let's not be rushed. She doesn't want
7:40
Speaker 1: him to get to continue to get injured and not
7:43
Speaker 1: be able to enjoy life in the future. US Weekly
7:46
Speaker 1: reports she is doing it from for her family. This
7:49
Speaker 1: comes from Mike Florio pro footballing it for her family.
7:52
Speaker 1: What a waste of that? Like, just what What is
7:54
Speaker 1: so annoying to me about this whole situation is that
7:56
Speaker 1: Tom Brady could have ridden off into the sunset post
7:59
Speaker 1: winning the Super Bowl, and this could have all been
8:01
Speaker 1: avoided and we could have all been like, oh, let's
8:04
Speaker 1: celebrate the retirement of the great one. I really wanted
8:07
Speaker 1: to retire mid season just because that I said that
8:10
Speaker 1: might happen before the season started and it'd be cool
8:12
Speaker 1: to be I mean, we don't know. That is wild. Also,
8:18
Speaker 1: I love that you call it US weekly. That's fantastic.
8:21
Speaker 1: US weekly. Did you call it US weekly? Who did that?
8:23
Speaker 1: That wasn't I don't know. Okay, Trick or treat The
8:28
Speaker 1: Rams and the forty nine ers are playing this weekend.
8:31
Speaker 1: I love this matchup. It's always fun. Who's the trick,
8:33
Speaker 1: Who's the treat? Kyle Shanahan comes out on top, bab.
8:37
Speaker 1: The trick is the Rams. The treat are the Niners.
8:41
Speaker 1: The Niners are I don't know, the races are are
8:43
Speaker 1: whatever it is. I love this. Yeah, Christian McCaffrey, big game.
8:46
Speaker 1: I think this is a oh yeah, I think we
8:48
Speaker 1: see like I think FI see Kyle Shanahan. First of all,
8:52
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan is my favorite lying liar who lies like
8:54
Speaker 1: we love we love it. He told us last week
8:56
Speaker 1: we got some red zone packages for CMC, and you're like,
8:58
Speaker 1: I guess that you even you used to be in
9:00
Speaker 1: the red zone barely right, like didn't happen, but keeps
9:02
Speaker 1: us on our toes. He's, you know what, he doesn't
9:05
Speaker 1: owe us anything. It doesn't give us anything, but he
9:07
Speaker 1: doesn't know it to us. So I kind of love it.
9:09
Speaker 1: And he could totally come onto the podium one day
9:11
Speaker 1: and just tell us this crazy stuff. I'm going to
9:13
Speaker 1: be like, you're a liar, lies though, so he's he's
9:16
Speaker 1: just messing with us, and it's pretty funny. Okay, here's
9:19
Speaker 1: a bigger part. Okay, Um, I'm gonna go through a
9:23
Speaker 1: couple of scenarios and you say trick or treat as
9:26
Speaker 1: as I'm going through, and they're they're pertaining to the
9:29
Speaker 1: one and only Odell Beckham Junior. Okay, ob J to
9:33
Speaker 1: the Cowboys, trick O b J to the Packers, treat
9:39
Speaker 1: o OBJ to the Bills, trick to the Rams. I
9:47
Speaker 1: think our rams are like do I think I get
9:49
Speaker 1: a new old line too? I don't know, because like
9:52
Speaker 1: it's not really Stafford's fault that he's been under pressure,
9:54
Speaker 1: like the billion this year. It's the old line. Yeah,
9:57
Speaker 1: their old line is not you're saying trick. Would he
10:00
Speaker 1: go there? Right? Like it's just it just would. We'd
10:02
Speaker 1: see him on the field, he'd be totally open with
10:04
Speaker 1: his arms like this like we saw remember in Cleveland,
10:07
Speaker 1: we saw that forever, Yes, and it just went unfortunate.
10:09
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford's a great quarterback. But if you're not, if
10:12
Speaker 1: you don't have any time at all, it's just not
10:13
Speaker 1: going to work out. OBJ to the Chiefs. Well, now
10:16
Speaker 1: we got Kadarius Tony as a chief so we don't
10:18
Speaker 1: need OBJ there. So that's a trick. Yeah, okay, well
10:21
Speaker 1: you only sa treat to one? Is there any other
10:23
Speaker 1: treats that we're missing in this list? Ob J to
10:26
Speaker 1: the Packers. I mean, I just want to know OBJ
10:30
Speaker 1: is like completely healthy first. But I think, like, you know, yeah,
10:36
Speaker 1: there's gonna be some like NFC team that probably like
10:39
Speaker 1: I know this sounds a little nuts and it's never
10:41
Speaker 1: gonna happen, but like what what would be the problem
10:43
Speaker 1: with like an OBJ to Like I don't know, Like, like,
10:47
Speaker 1: are the Bucks decide to go to the Lions please
10:50
Speaker 1: oh to the Bucks, like if they decide, because they
10:52
Speaker 1: keep having all these injuries like Russell Gage in the
10:54
Speaker 1: playing tonight, like all these things. So I was Obj,
10:57
Speaker 1: I don't think i'd want to go to the Bucks
10:58
Speaker 1: right now, just with I mean, if they can get
11:00
Speaker 1: it together, if they can bring in Nashville. They said
11:03
Speaker 1: Titans have no receivers right now. They said that, uh,
11:06
Speaker 1: Obj's not gonna be ready to like Thanksgiving. So we'll
11:09
Speaker 1: kind of like a corner at this point. It is
11:12
Speaker 1: around the corner. But it's also kind of funny because
11:13
Speaker 1: then he's like, well, I'm only going to go to
11:15
Speaker 1: a contender right like you know, it's it's like, why
11:17
Speaker 1: would I feel like he's not gonna go to the Lions?
11:19
Speaker 1: And what keeps some passes for like be done in January,
11:23
Speaker 1: like just cheating that's hanging out at the goal and
11:25
Speaker 1: just waiting for somebody to pass the can shoot. Pick
11:27
Speaker 1: a team that thinks they're a contender should bring him
11:29
Speaker 1: in now. So he has two to three weeks to
11:31
Speaker 1: like learn the stay. You think right now, you think
11:38
Speaker 1: he's gonna like come to you know, offer him money,
11:41
Speaker 1: and that's okay, We're gonna go to break. But after
11:45
Speaker 1: that we are picking a couple more games with Cynthia Breedland.
11:48
Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere. We'll securest all writer to time to
12:02
Speaker 1: make some game picks. We've got one, two, three, four
12:06
Speaker 1: five that we are doing this week. What's this? What's
12:09
Speaker 1: the status right now? Graver? Who's in the league. This
12:11
Speaker 1: is the first time that we have somebody who actually
12:13
Speaker 1: knows what they are talking about on this podcast to
12:15
Speaker 1: make picks. Besides Graver, So Mohana and I are both
12:19
Speaker 1: tied twenty four and fourteen record claw on my way back.
12:23
Speaker 1: Look at that go So you know I like to
12:25
Speaker 1: take chances. Some people I like to go. You know,
12:27
Speaker 1: I like it. But you know what, might as well
12:28
Speaker 1: have fun? Might as well have fun on the way
12:30
Speaker 1: right exactly? Can I just say twenty four and fourteen
12:32
Speaker 1: record against the spread is pretty good? Oh? You have
12:35
Speaker 1: to go to ats as baby really fun? Who? Okay?
12:43
Speaker 1: First thing is first, what are you thinking about Patriots
12:47
Speaker 1: versus Jets? The Patriots are a two and a half
12:49
Speaker 1: point favorite. I've got the Jets twenty four to seventeen.
12:53
Speaker 1: A lot of talk this week, I've seen it on
12:56
Speaker 1: every single sports media television show. Is Bill Bilichick an
12:59
Speaker 1: average coach go by me. I don't know about that,
13:03
Speaker 1: but I'm still going Jets Jets a rolling Jets are fun. Well,
13:05
Speaker 1: I do know about that, and Bill Belichick is not
13:07
Speaker 1: an average coach. No, It's like, that's why you don't
13:11
Speaker 1: have anything to talk about. There's so many other things
13:13
Speaker 1: to talk about. But I'm totally with you. I think
13:15
Speaker 1: the Jets take this one. Why the Jets D line
13:19
Speaker 1: is really really good. Quinn and Williams will wreck your life.
13:23
Speaker 1: Quinnin Williams will stop you from running the ball. Quinn
13:25
Speaker 1: and Williams will have a lot of things to say
13:27
Speaker 1: about twists and shifts and all those other things that
13:30
Speaker 1: are really confounding offensive lines this season. And I know
13:33
Speaker 1: they said Mac Jones is starting, but I don't even
13:35
Speaker 1: know if we'll see a full game of match for
13:37
Speaker 1: how long? How long? Right? And they he's also a
13:40
Speaker 1: lying liar who lies right, Like he didn't need tell
13:42
Speaker 1: the Monday Light sideline. He told her, so these assaulters,
13:46
Speaker 1: we're gonna put Mac Jones back in. Mac Jones did
13:48
Speaker 1: come back in someone I don't know what I don't
13:50
Speaker 1: know about. I was listening to Mac Jones post game
13:52
Speaker 1: after that, and somebody was just like, was it upsetting
13:54
Speaker 1: to hear people like chanting Bailey's name instead of yours?
13:58
Speaker 1: And and he's like, yeah, it doesn't feel good. Thanks
14:02
Speaker 1: for bringing it up. Thanking up, dude. Okay, next game,
14:06
Speaker 1: Vikings versus Cardinals. Vikings are favored by three and a half.
14:10
Speaker 1: I'm going Vikings by just one. I'm going twenty seven
14:13
Speaker 1: to twenty six. I am not fully convinced that just
14:16
Speaker 1: one high scoring game from the Cardinals means that everything
14:19
Speaker 1: is hunky door. You had Kyler yelling at Cliff on
14:22
Speaker 1: the sidelines. It's still a mess. I'm going Vikings and
14:25
Speaker 1: Vikings have been fun. I'm with you that on the winner,
14:28
Speaker 1: I can't I can't remember Zach score, so I'm gonna
14:30
Speaker 1: go just by my gut here. But you don't have
14:32
Speaker 1: to watch our other show so you can see what
14:34
Speaker 1: all the math says. Game debu yep um. I think
14:37
Speaker 1: the Vikings win. I think that it's probably by five
14:40
Speaker 1: or six. It seems like a more of a touchdown situation.
14:42
Speaker 1: Now there's an asterisk there because James Connor could make
14:45
Speaker 1: things a little bit different, and I do like DeAndre Hopkins.
14:47
Speaker 1: I think I saw something where if he has more
14:49
Speaker 1: than six catches, you're gonna be in good shape. And
14:52
Speaker 1: I think he will have more than six catches, So
14:54
Speaker 1: I do like a big game from DeAndre Hopkins, but
14:57
Speaker 1: a bigger game from doubt. It is gonna be fascinating
15:00
Speaker 1: if they somehow managed to turn this season around like
15:02
Speaker 1: they had that one great game against the Saints. But
15:04
Speaker 1: the Saints also put up a ton of scoring as well.
15:07
Speaker 1: That was a weird game. That was a very weird game,
15:09
Speaker 1: very very weird Thursday night football game. Two picks from
15:12
Speaker 1: any and Dandy Daltons through for like four hundred yards,
15:14
Speaker 1: Like that's a ridiculous madness. It was very it was
15:17
Speaker 1: I'm very curious. This is one of the games that
15:18
Speaker 1: I'm definitely gonna keep one eye on because I'm really
15:21
Speaker 1: excited to see what happens forty nine ers, Rams, I
15:23
Speaker 1: think you've kind of already told us what you think
15:25
Speaker 1: of forty nine ers are favored by one and a a
15:27
Speaker 1: half for somewhere. I just love the like voodoo that
15:30
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan seems to be doing. Sean McVay, like he's
15:32
Speaker 1: just permanently under his skin. I about the forty nine
15:35
Speaker 1: Ers winning by three twenty four to twenty one. I
15:37
Speaker 1: think yeah, no, I think that it's at least at
15:38
Speaker 1: three point win. There. The funny part is I saw
15:41
Speaker 1: some rumor that maybe Kareem Hunt will come to the Rams,
15:44
Speaker 1: But after this game, I'll just hilarious, right because it's like, well,
15:47
Speaker 1: you can't even have him for this matchup for defense
15:50
Speaker 1: in front. That's like really gnarly. And your online has
15:52
Speaker 1: been a nightmare, like I mean, Joe Noe, boom gone.
15:54
Speaker 1: They've had so many different reconfigurations that oline already coming
15:58
Speaker 1: off of bye. I still think Cooper Cup has a
16:00
Speaker 1: big game because the Niners are missing pieces in their secondary.
16:03
Speaker 1: But it is not an I don't like this one
16:05
Speaker 1: and I'm not playing matthew St. Coordinators already beat the
16:08
Speaker 1: Rams once this week or once this year a lot,
16:11
Speaker 1: and and they will depending on when you're listening, it
16:13
Speaker 1: could be this week to Okay, Seahawks Giants, Seahawks favored
16:18
Speaker 1: by three. What here's the tricky thing. I'm all in
16:21
Speaker 1: on Seahawks right now. I think they're super finally talk
16:23
Speaker 1: about Genoe on stop on our show game debut on
16:25
Speaker 1: Friday's watching um. But the Seahawks defense has just not
16:30
Speaker 1: been good at all, and then you've got say Quan
16:33
Speaker 1: going up against a run defense that is ain't or
16:37
Speaker 1: what do you think happens in this one? I do
16:39
Speaker 1: have the Hawks winning, but I don't feel good about it.
16:40
Speaker 1: I could totally change my pick tomorrow. I would change
16:42
Speaker 1: my pickups for you. I'm because I'm going with I'm
16:44
Speaker 1: going with the Giants in this one by a lot.
16:46
Speaker 1: Um No, but because you're getting those three points, then
16:49
Speaker 1: it ends up being by a lot because we're playing
16:51
Speaker 1: I'm playing against these numbers here, so like, thank you,
16:53
Speaker 1: I have Giants winnings right up, and now I get
16:55
Speaker 1: three more points. Like I'm a happy camper with that.
16:57
Speaker 1: The Seahawks do have two good corners. They're super young,
17:00
Speaker 1: Terique Woolen and Kobe Bryant. But that's okay because when
17:03
Speaker 1: you're looking to see what Daniel Jones does, it's not
17:06
Speaker 1: a ton of passing. They don't rely on that as much.
17:08
Speaker 1: So with Saquon Barkley in this run defense, I think
17:10
Speaker 1: that it's a ball control game. It might not be
17:12
Speaker 1: the highest scoring game we've seen so far this season,
17:15
Speaker 1: but I do think it's a nice Giant's upset. Okay,
17:18
Speaker 1: I like that. I'm changing my pick Bills. When I
17:23
Speaker 1: first wrote this, this was ten and a half, but
17:24
Speaker 1: now it's moved up to eleven. Right, Bills favored by
17:26
Speaker 1: eleven versus the Packers. The question is, do you have
17:30
Speaker 1: that big of a win coming from the Bills. I'm
17:32
Speaker 1: assuming you have the Bills winning. I have the Bills winning.
17:35
Speaker 1: I think it's right now by ten. I have to
17:36
Speaker 1: check because I just saw that Allen Lazard is probably
17:39
Speaker 1: not going to be playing, which would shift things even
17:41
Speaker 1: more in favor of the Bills. But the Bills are
17:43
Speaker 1: also like I think that they would have probably brought
17:46
Speaker 1: Tredavious White back had the Packers been more of a
17:49
Speaker 1: formidable threat. But they're not even having Trey come back yet,
17:52
Speaker 1: which is telling you something about they're like, great, we
17:54
Speaker 1: can get him healthy for one more game. It's really
17:56
Speaker 1: hard to pick. This is the first time Aaron Rodgers
17:58
Speaker 1: has been a double digit underdog. His starter crazy, which
18:02
Speaker 1: is wild, so it's really hard to like do that.
18:05
Speaker 1: But they're just they're like a mess cohesively, like like
18:08
Speaker 1: you know what we're hearing about all of these Chiefs
18:12
Speaker 1: players playing Call of duty together, and then you have
18:14
Speaker 1: Aaron rod just being like I don't think they're the
18:16
Speaker 1: players that are playing should play like you can. I mean,
18:18
Speaker 1: look at number seventy when you're watching these highlights and
18:21
Speaker 1: lowlights or whatever you want to call them. You know
18:23
Speaker 1: a number seventy along the Oh line. He's a rookie.
18:26
Speaker 1: He plays a right guard. Holy smokes it, this guy
18:28
Speaker 1: got just piled like just bad. It's it's really difficult.
18:32
Speaker 1: And so the old line has been really letting Aaron
18:34
Speaker 1: Rodgers down as well. And the deep passing game you
18:36
Speaker 1: have not seen that happen. Those deep connects like just
18:39
Speaker 1: don't happen, so defenses can creep up and it's just
18:41
Speaker 1: and they haven't really been using Aaron Jones like as
18:45
Speaker 1: last game we saw it. But the game priory was
18:48
Speaker 1: like on a milk cart and so is very interesting
18:51
Speaker 1: and vibe check. These are two teams that are going
18:53
Speaker 1: in completely opposite directions. I mean, but the building good
18:56
Speaker 1: right pass down, it's wild. This is you. Ahead of
19:00
Speaker 1: the season, I was like, this is going to be
19:02
Speaker 1: I mean they put it on Sunday night. They thought
19:03
Speaker 1: it was going to be such a good game. This
19:05
Speaker 1: is one of the least exciting games with the weekending
19:07
Speaker 1: anything like no pulse, no pulse in this game. It's
19:09
Speaker 1: not that I don't think it's a pulse, but I
19:10
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be like Bills jump out to a
19:13
Speaker 1: lead and I really need to watch this any Oh,
19:15
Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch it. But you know, but I thought
19:17
Speaker 1: it was going to be like one of those games
19:18
Speaker 1: where you're like Bill's chiefs. It lived up to the
19:21
Speaker 1: hype we were talking talking about it since last season. Oh,
19:23
Speaker 1: I got we're gonna play together, and then totally this one.
19:26
Speaker 1: You're like, well, man, treat trick. Oh, what's a treat?
19:30
Speaker 1: I take it back. Maybe it's a treat, guys, that
19:34
Speaker 1: is it. Cynthia Freeland, everybody please come back whenever, anytime, anytime,
19:40
Speaker 1: pal really, anytime. You know, you're welcome. We love sin.
19:44
Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere. We are coming back with the best
19:46
Speaker 1: and the worst things that I saw all the beast.
20:03
Speaker 1: This show just gets spookier and spookier. Okay, I have
20:08
Speaker 1: something that's not spooky. It's time for my best things
20:10
Speaker 1: and worst things that I heard and saw all week long.
20:13
Speaker 1: First things first, this is sad. I don't know about
20:18
Speaker 1: you guys, but I feel like TikTok social media has
20:20
Speaker 1: been really talking about the heartstrings lately. I was sitting
20:22
Speaker 1: having a coffee his worn and bawling my eyes out
20:24
Speaker 1: just from a meditations from some guy being like, I want,
20:28
Speaker 1: I want you to know that you're good enough, but
20:30
Speaker 1: this video made me cry too. Bears defensive end Robert Quinn.
20:37
Speaker 1: He is being traded to the Eagles, and his teammate,
20:41
Speaker 1: I guess former teammate now Roquan Smith was pretty was
20:44
Speaker 1: pretty broken up. Roll the clip. Nah, great deal of
20:48
Speaker 1: respect for that guy, you know, damn crazy. Oh okay,
21:03
Speaker 1: for those of you that are listening, he's just struggling,
21:06
Speaker 1: struggling at the podium. Oh and he can't even make
21:08
Speaker 1: it through. Oh. I feel like that's that's something that's
21:12
Speaker 1: like not even really talked about in the NFL much
21:14
Speaker 1: because they make so much money, so it's just like, okay, relax,
21:17
Speaker 1: but like having to just like pick up and leave
21:20
Speaker 1: at any moment's notice is truly traumatizing. And like obviously
21:26
Speaker 1: Roquan Smith didn't know this was coming, but he found
21:28
Speaker 1: out about it in that moment during the press conference
21:31
Speaker 1: and sold, I can finish this the question I have
21:34
Speaker 1: is is he sad to see his like mentor and
21:36
Speaker 1: friend leave the team, or is he said that he
21:38
Speaker 1: wasn't the one being traded because he requested a trade
21:41
Speaker 1: in the off season, held out of trading camp for
21:43
Speaker 1: like a week before he actually reported has been dealing
21:46
Speaker 1: with a contract dispute with the Bears. I wonder if
21:48
Speaker 1: they like, oh, I'm joking about that, But I do
21:53
Speaker 1: think there's a chance he still gets But maybe because
21:56
Speaker 1: he didn't get traded, he was like, Okay, I'm gonna
21:57
Speaker 1: buy in here and I'm gonna be with my best butt.
22:00
Speaker 1: And maybe that was also like his okay, So maybe
22:02
Speaker 1: he really doesn't want to be there. Maybe that's his
22:04
Speaker 1: support system. Yeah, and all of a sudden he's gone.
22:06
Speaker 1: Now he's going to the Eagles. That's just got to
22:09
Speaker 1: be so brutal. That's that's part of it, is having
22:11
Speaker 1: friends leave, Like you probably get mad close to these guys.
22:14
Speaker 1: And then another part of his literally being like, oh,
22:17
Speaker 1: I might have to sell my house tomorrow, Like you
22:19
Speaker 1: go to bed in your house and you'd be like,
22:20
Speaker 1: I might not live in the city tomorrow. Like that's insane.
22:23
Speaker 1: I can't imagine how difficult that is um okay, and
22:26
Speaker 1: then the worst thing. Guys. I wish that Mohun was
22:29
Speaker 1: here to talk about this because he is very anti
22:31
Speaker 1: bully on this show. I'm very pro bully, but I
22:35
Speaker 1: feel like Aaron Rodgers just been not nice to his
22:38
Speaker 1: teammates lately and it's just continuing. He was on the
22:41
Speaker 1: Pat mcv show. Listen to what he said, Guys who
22:43
Speaker 1: are making too many mistakes shouldn't be playing. Yeah, we
22:46
Speaker 1: gotta gotta start cutting some reps. Yeah, maybe guys who
22:50
Speaker 1: aren't playing, Uh, give them a chanceikes, dude, like you're okay.
22:57
Speaker 1: I saw that this was interesting. I saw a tweet earlier.
23:00
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers has made two hundred and thirty four regular
23:02
Speaker 1: season and playoff starts in his NFL career. Sunday this
23:05
Speaker 1: could be the first time he is a double digit underdog.
23:09
Speaker 1: I believe they're an eleven point underdog against the Bills
23:11
Speaker 1: on Sunday. It's talking like this is not gonna make
23:17
Speaker 1: the situation better, right, Like it's I feel like this
23:20
Speaker 1: is now going to be like, oh, Aaron's trying to like,
23:23
Speaker 1: you know, be the puppet master behind the scenes and
23:26
Speaker 1: like change the lineup. So then all of this stuff
23:28
Speaker 1: with his head coach is gonna come back up, and
23:30
Speaker 1: it's just gonna be even more drama and it's just ridiculous. Dude.
23:34
Speaker 1: They asked him in his press conference if it was
23:37
Speaker 1: being a good leader to air these things publicly as
23:39
Speaker 1: opposed to discussing them privately, and he said, oh, I
23:42
Speaker 1: discussed them privately too. It just doesn't say I know
23:48
Speaker 1: that some people work really well under that kind of pressure,
23:51
Speaker 1: like they really like to be yelled at. But like,
23:55
Speaker 1: I mean, let's say there's one hundred people, Okay, one
23:57
Speaker 1: hundred percent may be I would say ten percent of
24:02
Speaker 1: people like that, ten people like that out of the
24:05
Speaker 1: other people. That doesn't really vie. Like that's just not
24:07
Speaker 1: being a good partner in my opinion, right, and leader
24:10
Speaker 1: and not taking enough accountability. Like you see guys all
24:13
Speaker 1: the time who somebody drops a pass or somebody screws up,
24:16
Speaker 1: and the guys say, well, I have to be better.
24:18
Speaker 1: That's on me. Even though it's not on them, they
24:21
Speaker 1: still say it's on them because that's what the quarterback
24:23
Speaker 1: usually does to inspire his teammates. But you also have
24:27
Speaker 1: like Tom Brady has a history of yelling his face
24:30
Speaker 1: off at receivers who run the wrong routes, and you know,
24:33
Speaker 1: there's a difference between holding people accountable like that and
24:37
Speaker 1: doing what Aaron Rodgers is doing. And I think Aaron
24:39
Speaker 1: Rodgers is kind of missing the like the awareness of
24:42
Speaker 1: how this comes across. I just can't imagine, like go
24:46
Speaker 1: and play some call of duty at this point, you know,
24:48
Speaker 1: like get everyone together, play some video games, because this
24:50
Speaker 1: method is clearly is clearly some chemistry like mahomes and Juju.
24:55
Speaker 1: I can't remember. I think it was Andy Reid. I
24:57
Speaker 1: was listening to all of these old UM coach interviews
25:00
Speaker 1: this weekend because I'm writing something, and I believe it
25:04
Speaker 1: was Andy Reid. And the first thing that he said
25:06
Speaker 1: out of his mouth, like after he got through all
25:08
Speaker 1: it was like his postgame press conference and after he
25:10
Speaker 1: got through all of the injuries, he was just like,
25:12
Speaker 1: you know, first and foremost, this loss is on me.
25:14
Speaker 1: I didn't put the guys in the position that they
25:16
Speaker 1: needed to be to succeed and win this game. Um,
25:19
Speaker 1: that's what he took control. Like that is a leader.
25:22
Speaker 1: That's a that's a good leader, that's a good vibe
25:25
Speaker 1: is being like it's my bad, like Aaron, we all
25:28
Speaker 1: know that your receivers and your weapons are weird right now.
25:31
Speaker 1: We all know. We saw it. We all saw DeVante
25:34
Speaker 1: Adams leave. We get it. You don't have to be
25:36
Speaker 1: like it's their fault and not mine. Like if anything
25:40
Speaker 1: go high, like go be, rise above, be the leader.
25:43
Speaker 1: You know. That's that's a math thoughts on day. Guys,
25:47
