- 0:11Speaker 1: Welcome back Day Drinking with Dog. We are doing a
- 0:14Speaker 1: little pre snow pre football podcast here, a dual podcast.
- 0:20Speaker 1: We are on Day Drinking with Dog right now. And also,
- 0:23Speaker 1: obviously we should.
- 0:24Speaker 3: Just get a little sports show together and just call
- 0:26Speaker 3: it a whole new title.
- 0:27Speaker 1: But Chris Mercuriel on the Drive Home podcast host, What's
- 0:30Speaker 1: going on?
- 0:31Speaker 3: Chris?
- 0:32Speaker 2: What's up? What's going on?
- 0:34Speaker 1: You know, not much, just home from a long work
- 0:37Speaker 1: week and catching up on some stuff that I missed
- 0:40Speaker 1: during the week and starting to get pumped up for
- 0:43Speaker 1: Sunday's game. We're gonna be snowed in pretty much. I'll
- 0:47Speaker 1: shovel before, shovel after, but those three and a half
- 0:49Speaker 1: hours in between, I'm glued to the TV. You know,
- 0:54Speaker 1: I feel good about it. We'll get to the game
- 0:56Speaker 1: in a little bit, obviously, but I'm sure you feel
- 0:58Speaker 1: good about It's hard not to feel good about the game.
- 1:01Speaker 1: But there's the pitfalls I'm sure we'll talk about when
- 1:04Speaker 1: we get to the The oh no, that happened kind
- 1:07Speaker 1: of thing. But uh but I want to get in.
- 1:10Speaker 1: I didn't do a show last week. I did one
- 1:14Speaker 1: with you, but I didn't do my own. And about
- 1:17Speaker 1: the football games really so much. Uh so last week's games.
- 1:22Speaker 1: I don't really want to go game to game. But
- 1:24Speaker 1: a couple of things I want to touch on. Was
- 1:26Speaker 1: the catch, no catch, interception, whatever you want to call
- 1:29Speaker 1: it in the Buffalo Denver game. It's one of those things.
- 1:36Speaker 1: It's that it's just like an internet phenomenon. You know,
- 1:40Speaker 1: it's like politics really, that catch no catch. You know,
- 1:42Speaker 1: it's it's fifty one side, fifty on the other, and
- 1:46Speaker 1: it's like it's got like just nasty over it, Like
- 1:50Speaker 1: come on, Like, I know we bashed reps all the time.
- 1:54Speaker 2: Well that's the problem.
- 1:57Speaker 1: I don't think that it was worth bashing the reps
- 1:59Speaker 1: at all here.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Uh no, not on this one. But the problem is
- 2:02Speaker 2: they make so many questionable calls, and they like sometimes
- 2:06Speaker 2: because the football rule books probably like triple every other sport,
- 2:10Speaker 2: but like sometimes it's like they just made that up
- 2:13Speaker 2: as they were going along. What was it? What was
- 2:15Speaker 2: the play that we had where we recovered a fumble
- 2:19Speaker 2: in the end zone, but we had to bring it
- 2:21Speaker 2: back to the ten for some reason because you can't
- 2:23Speaker 2: score or something.
- 2:24Speaker 3: There was because you yes, you can't.
- 2:29Speaker 2: It was against the chargers. You have to like you
- 2:31Speaker 2: can't like bring they had to bring it back to
- 2:33Speaker 2: the tent.
- 2:33Speaker 3: I'm just like, because it was fourth down, because it
- 2:35Speaker 3: was fourth down, that.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Was That was a real rule. That was a rule.
- 2:39Speaker 1: So there's a gazillion rules. It's a thankless job. They
- 2:43Speaker 1: should be full time. I can't believe they're not yet, but.
- 2:47Speaker 2: I think that's coming though.
- 2:49Speaker 3: I think when you.
- 2:49Speaker 1: Look at that play, you know, and you just kind of,
- 2:52Speaker 1: you know, put it in a microcosm. It happens, you know,
- 2:55Speaker 1: it happened so fast. There's really still not an angle
- 2:58Speaker 1: whether you can see he had control not. They're just
- 3:00Speaker 1: not you don't.
- 3:01Speaker 3: I don't want anyone to lie to me and say, oh,
- 3:03Speaker 3: I saw you had control or I saw him fucking
- 3:05Speaker 3: bobbling it.
- 3:05Speaker 1: There's not you can't tell. But two these these refs,
- 3:10Speaker 1: like they're making a call in the speed of the game.
- 3:12Speaker 1: Now there's a slow there's literally a still shot of
- 3:15Speaker 1: like it looks like he's holding onto it, but like,
- 3:16Speaker 1: come on, like those are you know the Buffalo Bills fans,
- 3:20Speaker 1: you know, and then the Denver fans are gonna say
- 3:21Speaker 1: one thing, and then people across America and to say
- 3:23Speaker 1: another the radio people blah blah blah blah.
- 3:25Speaker 3: I was not and I was rooting.
- 3:28Speaker 1: I really had no rooting interest in that game because
- 3:31Speaker 1: I I one, we didn't know BONICKX was gonna get
- 3:34Speaker 1: hurt at that point, so we weren't like, oh my god,
- 3:36Speaker 1: it's it's you know, it's Stidham in right now. We
- 3:39Speaker 1: want Denver to win. Because the Buffalo won. We were home,
- 3:42Speaker 1: and I thought they were right for the taking because
- 3:44Speaker 1: they were down a couple of receivers. You know, Josh
- 3:47Speaker 1: Allen just can't just keep being superman, and he proved
- 3:50Speaker 1: it in that game. And I thought that play was
- 3:52Speaker 1: just yeah, the Buffalo probably would have won if it
- 3:55Speaker 1: was a catch, but sorry, like you still have to
- 3:58Speaker 1: play again.
- 3:58Speaker 3: No one ever mentions.
- 3:59Speaker 1: This in this topic. You still could have played defense.
- 4:03Speaker 1: The ball was at the fucking fifteen yard line of Denver.
- 4:08Speaker 1: They drove it down and scored, like yeah, they got
- 4:11Speaker 1: a couple of fucking calls, but like, I don't.
- 4:15Speaker 3: Know, like I it just played d like it is
- 4:18Speaker 3: what it is.
- 4:19Speaker 2: Well, it's like it was like the one that everybody
- 4:21Speaker 2: cried about the overtime rule was that the Buffalo Kansas
- 4:25Speaker 2: City game. Yeah, all Buffalo had to do was played
- 4:28Speaker 2: the events for thirteen seconds.
- 4:30Speaker 1: Yeah, and they didn't they didn't go to overtime, right
- 4:33Speaker 1: and then.
- 4:34Speaker 2: But like with this couple things. One, this offensively is
- 4:40Speaker 2: probably the worst skilled positions that he's ever had.
- 4:44Speaker 3: Oh oh yeah, for sure. This was the worst outside
- 4:47Speaker 3: of running back. Yeah, worst wide receiver crew he's ever.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Had, like he's ever had. And uh, it's one of
- 4:52Speaker 2: those things too where I'm sure they all knew it,
- 4:56Speaker 2: but if we don't win the super Bowl, our coach
- 4:58Speaker 2: is gone. So that that played a factor into it too,
- 5:01Speaker 2: because you and I were even talking about it. It's like,
- 5:03Speaker 2: no matter if he didn't win the super Bowl, if
- 5:06Speaker 2: he got there and lost, he was still getting fired.
- 5:08Speaker 1: I don't know if he got there and lost, he
- 5:10Speaker 1: would have gotten fired, but he was getting fired this
- 5:12Speaker 1: If he lost this week, he was getting fired. I
- 5:16Speaker 1: think getting there might have I mean, I think I'll
- 5:19Speaker 1: say this, if he got there and lost, it would
- 5:23Speaker 1: have depended on how he lost.
- 5:24Speaker 3: If he got fired.
- 5:26Speaker 1: You know what I mean, if it was like if
- 5:27Speaker 1: they got blown out fired, if he just made a
- 5:30Speaker 1: terrible call like the great like a grady little moment,
- 5:33Speaker 1: you know what I mean, if he had that, sure
- 5:35Speaker 1: he would have been gone. But I think getting there,
- 5:37Speaker 1: you know, he really had to fuck up in that
- 5:39Speaker 1: game to be fired.
- 5:40Speaker 3: Either way, I think it was time for him to go.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Uh.
- 5:43Speaker 1: They they're they're not figuring out with him there, so
- 5:46Speaker 1: you might as well get a new voice in there.
- 5:48Speaker 2: No, I agree, And it's but it's just interesting to see,
- 5:51Speaker 2: like if you're, oh, well, did you see what the
- 5:53Speaker 2: owner said after the game after he fired him. He
- 5:57Speaker 2: said he fired him over the Denver game. Like in
- 5:59Speaker 2: his pre conference, he's like, I fired him because of
- 6:02Speaker 2: the Denver game.
- 6:03Speaker 3: So now if that's all the catch, then he's fine, right,
- 6:07Speaker 3: And so you.
- 6:08Speaker 2: Got a guy that won like five AFCs titles, been
- 6:10Speaker 2: to the playoffs eight times, he's been to like two waves.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Do you think he was coaching knowing that, yes, or
- 6:17Speaker 1: he felt it or he was told it.
- 6:20Speaker 2: Oh, he definitely, No, it wasn't. Well, I'm sure there's
- 6:23Speaker 2: a million people in that build, like like here, like
- 6:26Speaker 2: there's a million people in the building, I'm sure they know,
- 6:29Speaker 2: like right, like the owner is probably like confided in
- 6:32Speaker 2: someone like, hey, if we don't win this, he's gone.
- 6:35Speaker 3: And it gets to somebody's get back to him.
- 6:37Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, but here's the thing. What's he going
- 6:40Speaker 2: to do about it? Quit? You know what I mean?
- 6:42Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, I'm just I'm just curious, like it,
- 6:45Speaker 1: did he know? Because I think if you think you're
- 6:47Speaker 1: coaching for your job, I don't know, maybe he maybe
- 6:52Speaker 1: he plays that game a little differently, Like I still
- 6:54Speaker 1: don't understand the last play of the half of like
- 6:56Speaker 1: that fumble made no sense to me, Like, I just
- 7:00Speaker 1: don't understand what Alan was thinking. You know, how do
- 7:03Speaker 1: you how do you put that on McDermott, Like you know,
- 7:07Speaker 1: and again McDermott probably should have been fired last year.
- 7:09Speaker 3: Or maybe even the year before.
- 7:11Speaker 1: Yeah, but this was the year I knew, Like when
- 7:14Speaker 1: when Mahomes and Allen and uh excuse me, and Lamar
- 7:17Speaker 1: Jackson and and no Burrow this year and you know
- 7:21Speaker 1: they might have been like if they won last week,
- 7:23Speaker 1: they'd probably favored by a point and a half in
- 7:25Speaker 1: New England. Yeah, I can see that they would have
- 7:29Speaker 1: been favored. They were favored the last game and they
- 7:31Speaker 1: won that they played us.
- 7:33Speaker 2: Were they were they favored the second time?
- 7:34Speaker 3: It was it was one and a half. They were
- 7:36Speaker 3: favored by one and a half.
- 7:37Speaker 2: It might even be they might have been like a
- 7:39Speaker 2: two and a half.
- 7:40Speaker 3: Yeah, especially the way the fucking our o line played.
- 7:44Speaker 1: You know, granted the Bills don't have the pass rush
- 7:46Speaker 1: that Houston does, but yeah, I mean, I uh, you know,
- 7:53Speaker 1: couldn't happen to a better team.
- 7:54Speaker 3: I guess right. They're in a division and yeah.
- 7:58Speaker 2: I say this to you all the time, but like,
- 8:00Speaker 2: just to put it out there, they must be like,
- 8:03Speaker 2: how the fuck do we have a five year run?
- 8:06Speaker 2: They're already back. Yeah, and we didn't win a super Bowl? Yeah,
- 8:10Speaker 2: oh no, there we have. Yeah, we have five years
- 8:13Speaker 2: to do this, and we may go.
- 8:14Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want to jump ahead of anything,
- 8:18Speaker 1: but I think if we win the Super Bowl this year,
- 8:21Speaker 1: I think we could almost mirror the early two thousands,
- 8:23Speaker 1: where with our schedule next year, I could see us
- 8:25Speaker 1: maybe going ten and seven and missing the playoffs, like
- 8:28Speaker 1: just kind of that like we did in two thousand
- 8:30Speaker 1: and two, and then you know, kind of gear up
- 8:33Speaker 1: again and go on another run. I don't know, Like,
- 8:36Speaker 1: I mean, we could lose this week, we could lose
- 8:38Speaker 1: the Super Bowl.
- 8:39Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 8:39Speaker 2: But it's just it's interesting though, Like but like we reminds.
- 8:42Speaker 1: Me a lot of that it's his second year, just
- 8:44Speaker 1: like it was Brady's second year.
- 8:46Speaker 2: Well, this is this is two thousand and one. I mean,
- 8:48Speaker 2: this run, it's totally two thousand and one. But interesting
- 8:52Speaker 2: because we have like ten draft picks next year. We
- 8:54Speaker 2: have like one hundred million in cap space still for
- 8:57Speaker 2: we do you know we're currently sitting on sixty.
- 9:01Speaker 1: Yeah, it's crazy. And this is just gonna get Robert
- 9:04Speaker 1: Craft to spend.
- 9:06Speaker 2: You know.
- 9:07Speaker 1: I love when Jerry Jones says, I want to catch
- 9:09Speaker 1: crap before I die. Okay, good luck with that, buddy.
- 9:12Speaker 1: You're gonna be You're about to be down five after this.
- 9:14Speaker 2: Year, isn't isn't he? Uh? Isn't he like eighty.
- 9:18Speaker 1: He's yeah, he's a crafts Age eighty one eighty two
- 9:21Speaker 1: something like that, Right, I would I would imagine, I
- 9:25Speaker 1: don't know.
- 9:26Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, if anybody needs a long trip
- 9:29Speaker 2: to the real world, it's Jerry Jones.
- 9:30Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, uh, it's funny that Dallas has even
- 9:36Speaker 1: came up on this show. But whatever, I just think
- 9:39Speaker 1: it's funny and uh, you know, to your point, I
- 9:43Speaker 1: mean our buddy Angelo, you know, like everyone, they're just
- 9:46Speaker 1: like you gotta be fucking kidding me, you know. And
- 9:48Speaker 1: I think that's where you're getting a lot of this,
- 9:50Speaker 1: you know, soft schedule, easy schedule.
- 9:52Speaker 3: Ever, the road is paved to the super Bowl.
- 9:54Speaker 1: And I think it's hilarious. I don't like you know,
- 9:57Speaker 1: it's funny, Chris. I don't care. I never cared. I
- 10:00Speaker 1: want an easy schedule. I want quarterbacks to go down.
- 10:03Speaker 1: This is the one sport where I don't give a
- 10:05Speaker 1: fuck who I play and what's wrong with them if
- 10:07Speaker 1: they're fucking feeling a JV team by the time the
- 10:10Speaker 1: super Bowl comes. Oh well, sorry, this is a sport
- 10:12Speaker 1: of attrition. We're healthy, you're not. We're better than you
- 10:15Speaker 1: because we stayed healthy. I don't care. I want to
- 10:18Speaker 1: get there and I want to win. There's no asterisk
- 10:21Speaker 1: next to super Bowls. You could put like they try
- 10:23Speaker 1: to throw them on the Patriots super Bowls, but there
- 10:25Speaker 1: doesn't count.
- 10:26Speaker 3: It's not the Lakers Bubble title.
- 10:28Speaker 2: Okay, Well, so, so here's the thing about the soft schedule, right,
- 10:32Speaker 2: it would be like if we went ten and seven,
- 10:36Speaker 2: like I thought we were gonna, you wouldn't hear about
- 10:38Speaker 2: the schedule, right, It's only but like here it's twofold one.
- 10:42Speaker 2: You only hear about the schedule because we went fourteen
- 10:45Speaker 2: and three and two. You you only hear like soft
- 10:50Speaker 2: schedule because everyone thought we weren't going to be back, right,
- 10:54Speaker 2: But like now that we are, it's obviously got to
- 10:57Speaker 2: be something. I mean, if we went ten and seven,
- 10:59Speaker 2: people be like, oh, you played a soft schedule and
- 11:01Speaker 2: you suck, like we hear that. But because we keep winning,
- 11:05Speaker 2: isn't it like isn't it a good thing to do
- 11:08Speaker 2: what you're supposed to do? Right? Like we were, you
- 11:11Speaker 2: know what I mean, Like we weren't.
- 11:13Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sorry.
- 11:14Speaker 1: Good good teams, really good teams do what they're supposed
- 11:17Speaker 1: to do. They win games, they win games against bad teams.
- 11:20Speaker 1: And yes, we lost the Raiders and we lost the pit.
- 11:22Speaker 1: It was the beginning of the year, still trying to
- 11:24Speaker 1: where it's everyone's new, trying to get.
- 11:26Speaker 3: A fucking mole. The coach is new. You just got
- 11:29Speaker 3: to give it time.
- 11:30Speaker 1: And then when we got time, Yeah, the schedule softened
- 11:32Speaker 1: up and we just never lost.
- 11:35Speaker 3: And we probably should have won that Buffalo game.
- 11:36Speaker 1: We should probably be on like a fourteen or fifteen
- 11:38Speaker 1: game winning streak whatever it'd be right now.
- 11:40Speaker 2: But what gets me is right, so we're gonna lose
- 11:44Speaker 2: to Buffalo in Buffalo, blown out? Right, we win?
- 11:47Speaker 3: We win.
- 11:47Speaker 2: We're supposed we're gonna get blown out by Tampa in Tampa.
- 11:50Speaker 3: We win.
- 11:51Speaker 2: We actually go to Carolina, an away game for a
- 11:55Speaker 2: team that won their division, and we blew them out.
- 11:58Speaker 3: Yep.
- 11:59Speaker 2: But it's like you you can't and you can't turn
- 12:01Speaker 2: around and say, well that's when Carolina sucked and they
- 12:04Speaker 2: were good at the end of the year. No, the
- 12:05Speaker 2: same team.
- 12:06Speaker 1: No, there literally counts for the first few weeks of
- 12:09Speaker 1: the year. Yeah, when they we get those weird games.
- 12:12Speaker 1: That's why I don't bet in the beginning of the year.
- 12:13Speaker 1: You just never know what's going to happen.
- 12:15Speaker 2: Yeah, Like you can't bet till like October.
- 12:18Speaker 1: Yeah no, really, I wait three four weeks. I don't
- 12:20Speaker 1: really bet that much anymore. But that's why I used
- 12:22Speaker 1: to do all the time. I Mean, that's where the
- 12:25Speaker 1: NFL makes a lot of their money, you know, is
- 12:27Speaker 1: those first few weeks when no one knows what's going
- 12:29Speaker 1: to happen, all the upsets happen.
- 12:31Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, especially like the Raiders here. Yeah, everybody
- 12:34Speaker 2: thought we were gonna win that if the.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Raiders played us in week seventeen at New England, what
- 12:40Speaker 1: would the line have been?
- 12:42Speaker 3: Would have been seventeen? It would have been seventeen, yeah,
- 12:46Speaker 3: somewhere in there. Yeah, it would have been it been.
- 12:48Speaker 1: At least and we would have won by thirty five.
- 12:51Speaker 1: I mean that would that would you know? And you
- 12:53Speaker 1: can't take away you know. And and this is where
- 12:58Speaker 1: like this game is is a no win situation for us,
- 13:05Speaker 1: because if we lose, it's, oh my god, you guys,
- 13:07Speaker 1: we told you so, and you lost to a backup quarterback.
- 13:11Speaker 1: If we win, here we go again. You just beat
- 13:14Speaker 1: a backup quarterback and gratulations. Now you're gonna get killed
- 13:17Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl against Seattle or La Okay.
- 13:21Speaker 3: You know what. Neither of those teams really scare me.
- 13:24Speaker 1: And they're probably saying the same thing about Oscars the
- 13:27Speaker 1: whole You know that this is becoming like just mainstream
- 13:30Speaker 1: media ESPN. They create these narratives, you know, And I
- 13:33Speaker 1: give Olovsky a little bit of credit for kind of
- 13:35Speaker 1: making a stupid apology, but at least he did. Because
- 13:38Speaker 1: you'll never see any of the black people the Stephen A.
- 13:41Speaker 1: Smith's or the Cam Newton's. And there was another idiot
- 13:46Speaker 1: today said something yesterday, said something stupid.
- 13:49Speaker 3: You know, you never see them.
- 13:50Speaker 1: Apologizing about nothing, not that they have to apologize, but
- 13:53Speaker 1: they'll never admit they were wrong or any of that stuff.
- 13:57Speaker 3: And it comes about race and all this shit.
- 13:59Speaker 2: And it's like, so that's what gets me, is like
- 14:04Speaker 2: you don't have to apologize, right, you don't even have
- 14:07Speaker 2: to turn around and be like, hey, what's wrong, But
- 14:09Speaker 2: to turn around and act like you never said it, right,
- 14:12Speaker 2: That's what I don't understand.
- 14:14Speaker 3: Like Cam new was just doubling down on fools.
- 14:17Speaker 2: He is so fucking well, what is his problem with us?
- 14:21Speaker 3: No, it's not.
- 14:21Speaker 1: It's even if he does have a problem or he doesn't,
- 14:24Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. He's just it's just hot takes. It's
- 14:26Speaker 1: just a stance. Like do you think when Orlovsky said
- 14:30Speaker 1: the other day that thirty one other quarterbacks would have
- 14:32Speaker 1: won that game? He fucking meant it, no, because the kids.
- 14:36Speaker 1: The guy's smart, he's a great film watcher, he knew
- 14:39Speaker 1: what he saw, what what quarterbacks were gonna survive. That
- 14:46Speaker 1: maybe a prime Mahobes would have scrambled a little better.
- 14:48Speaker 1: Maybe Lamar Jackson fights drew some of those fucking hits.
- 14:52Speaker 1: I don't know, but.
- 14:54Speaker 3: To say that. And then he realized because he got
- 14:57Speaker 3: a lot, like he almost quit Twitter over it because
- 14:59Speaker 3: he's just a fucking came a little bitch about it.
- 15:02Speaker 2: Well, I mean someone must have got to Orlovsky though,
- 15:05Speaker 2: and was like, you need more hot takes, right, because
- 15:07Speaker 2: like the film, the film is for like diehard like
- 15:12Speaker 2: fans that get technical and all that stuff. That's that's
- 15:16Speaker 2: the film. Like we love the film, right because we
- 15:18Speaker 2: watched the game right, right, But he doesn't have enough
- 15:22Speaker 2: hot takes to like create controverts.
- 15:27Speaker 1: Like it's like get on, get on first take or
- 15:29Speaker 1: whatever fucking show he's on and just say something outrageous.
- 15:32Speaker 2: You know.
- 15:33Speaker 1: And and but his apology was to his apology wasn't
- 15:36Speaker 1: to like Patriots fans. His apology was the fucking uh CJ.
- 15:41Speaker 1: Stroud Like, oh God, Like I don't know, like if
- 15:46Speaker 1: I was a pro athlete, like like a good pro athlete,
- 15:49Speaker 1: I would never ever.
- 15:50Speaker 3: Ever listen to any of this ship any of it.
- 15:53Speaker 2: Oh, no way, no way.
- 15:55Speaker 1: And I feel like I feel bad for these guys,
- 15:57Speaker 1: like like those tennis players in Australia yesterday, they have
- 15:59Speaker 1: to listen to these fucking liberal, fucking journalists. They're in
- 16:04Speaker 1: Australia playing tennis, and these asked him questions if they
- 16:06Speaker 1: feel proud of America because of Trump, Like, what does
- 16:09Speaker 1: that have to do with fucking playing tennis in Australia.
- 16:11Speaker 2: God, oh my god. The two of them when they
- 16:13Speaker 2: both got asked it, they were perfect. They gave perfect
- 16:17Speaker 2: answers and the guy the girl was like, no, thank you.
- 16:20Speaker 2: And the guy was like, no matter what I say,
- 16:22Speaker 2: you're gonna twist it. So I'm not saying.
- 16:23Speaker 1: Anything like It's just why are you even a loud
- 16:25Speaker 1: to ask these stupid questions? You know, And it doesn't
- 16:29Speaker 1: really happen as much as the NFL and may I
- 16:31Speaker 1: don't follow every team and every week, and you know,
- 16:33Speaker 1: usually if something crazy like that happens, it you'll see
- 16:36Speaker 1: it on Twitter at some point.
- 16:37Speaker 2: Well, well, the big thing was this year was they
- 16:42Speaker 2: find was it was a jj Watt for the make
- 16:45Speaker 2: America Great Again hat on TV after the game and
- 16:49Speaker 2: then they had the linebacker for Houston who we just played,
- 16:53Speaker 2: had the like stop the genocide on the eye black
- 16:56Speaker 2: that was under right.
- 16:57Speaker 1: Yep, they find him, Yeah, but they find it because
- 17:00Speaker 1: they no, they find them because people started questioning it.
- 17:06Speaker 1: People are like, wait, why are you finding fucking him
- 17:08Speaker 1: and not him? And then they.
- 17:11Speaker 2: Were like they like they like swept that right under
- 17:14Speaker 2: the rug. It was like a brief announcement. Move on.
- 17:17Speaker 1: Yeah, did you see the graph of h I guess
- 17:23Speaker 1: they did a study on the voting tendencies of all
- 17:27Speaker 1: major sports, so it was NHL, NFL, MLB, n B A,
- 17:32Speaker 1: and of course they throw w n B A in there,
- 17:34Speaker 1: but I'm glad they did so the highest liberal. I'll
- 17:38Speaker 1: let you guess who would be the of those five leagues?
- 17:42Speaker 1: Who would be the most liberal voting league?
- 17:46Speaker 2: I mean, this might be wrong, but isn't the obvious
- 17:49Speaker 2: answer the WB correct? Who is two? So what we
- 17:56Speaker 2: have less is the four major the four major sports liberal.
- 18:00Speaker 2: I bet you anything. That's the NFL, no baseball, no, oh, hockey. Oh,
- 18:11Speaker 2: I don't even I can't, I don't even think about
- 18:16Speaker 2: I know.
- 18:17Speaker 3: So they're like neck and neck.
- 18:19Speaker 1: Yeah, they're like neck and neck right and being I mean,
- 18:22Speaker 1: we're talking sixty so I wish I had the graph
- 18:25Speaker 1: in front of me. Sixty something percent. Okay, now it
- 18:28Speaker 1: starts to now it starts to get the NBA. Yeah,
- 18:30Speaker 1: with the w NBA. Now and like when I and
- 18:33Speaker 1: like just a sliver of red, like three percent, you know,
- 18:36Speaker 1: and the rest is independent, right, And then I believe, well,
- 18:40Speaker 1: the the number one Republican was NHL by a landslide. Remember,
- 18:47Speaker 1: you have a lot of foreigners in there that don't vote,
- 18:49Speaker 1: so it's a smaller demographic. And a lot of these
- 18:51Speaker 1: hockey players are you know, fucking Russia and all that stuff, right, so,
- 18:56Speaker 1: but the American ones are fucking kind of like you
- 18:58Speaker 1: and me. They want to go drinking at the bar.
- 19:00Speaker 1: You know, well, not that you drink anymore.
- 19:01Speaker 3: But you know what I mean.
- 19:05Speaker 1: MLB was actually, I believe second the Republicans outweighed the Democrats,
- 19:12Speaker 1: and then NFL was kind of in the middle. But
- 19:15Speaker 1: then I was reading some sub lines of it, some comments,
- 19:19Speaker 1: and a lot of people were saying the NFL probably
- 19:22Speaker 1: is very more Republican than Democrat. They just don't want
- 19:25Speaker 1: to admit it because of all the social justice things
- 19:28Speaker 1: they put on the field and the helmet, so they
- 19:30Speaker 1: just stay out of it, or they're independent.
- 19:33Speaker 2: Or they aren't allowed to admit it. Right.
- 19:35Speaker 1: And I read a fucking thing today that just it's
- 19:39Speaker 1: I will quote him, it's Phil Mushnick in the New
- 19:41Speaker 1: York Post. And he's an old curmudgeon. But he calls
- 19:46Speaker 1: spade a spade, He sees it, he calls it out.
- 19:49Speaker 1: And what's one of the slogans the NFL uses now
- 19:53Speaker 1: Choose love?
- 19:55Speaker 3: Right, Choose love on the back of the helmets.
- 19:58Speaker 1: Yeah, he says, it's it's about time the NFL stopped,
- 20:02Speaker 1: uh fooling their their fans like or no, no, like
- 20:06Speaker 1: their fans aren't foolish enough to actually put any weight
- 20:09Speaker 1: into this choose love ship. If you really want to
- 20:12Speaker 1: fucking make a difference, why don't you put the fucking
- 20:15Speaker 1: choose love on the front of the helmet so while
- 20:17Speaker 1: the players can see it. Because they're the ones that
- 20:19Speaker 1: are raping and beating and fucking, you know, like, they're
- 20:22Speaker 1: the ones that are getting in trouble.
- 20:24Speaker 2: You know what's you know what's hilarious about the NFL.
- 20:27Speaker 2: They have all their social justice stuff, right, Yeah, there's
- 20:32Speaker 2: at least double digit DUIs every year. There's like assaulting,
- 20:37Speaker 2: there's like assaulting women. It's just like it's the most.
- 20:41Speaker 3: Like sexual predators, fucking murderers. We got murderers. We had one,
- 20:45Speaker 3: you know, like.
- 20:46Speaker 2: We definitely you definitely have like you definitely have like
- 20:51Speaker 2: guys that have tons of kids out of wet block.
- 20:54Speaker 2: Like it's like the pristine image they portray is not
- 20:58Speaker 2: is not even close to what they are.
- 21:03Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just and they and they try to make
- 21:08Speaker 1: sure their audience follows the rules, but they won't hold
- 21:11Speaker 1: their standards to their own fucking players to go fuck yourself.
- 21:15Speaker 2: You know.
- 21:15Speaker 3: The NFL is so lucky.
- 21:17Speaker 1: They have the number one product and I don't see
- 21:20Speaker 1: that going away for quite a while. They are lucky
- 21:23Speaker 1: because this all this whole shit, you know, this this
- 21:26Speaker 1: is what ruined basketball. That in the three point shot,
- 21:30Speaker 1: basically social justice in the three point shot ruined basketball.
- 21:34Speaker 2: You know.
- 21:34Speaker 1: MLB is just they they just kick themselves in the nuts,
- 21:39Speaker 1: you know, and then they do the stupid gay Pride
- 21:40Speaker 1: Knights and all this other shit, you know, and then
- 21:44Speaker 1: NHL just you know, should be bigger than it is.
- 21:48Speaker 1: I don't know, if you know, they're trying I wish
- 21:50Speaker 1: they were bigger, but actually at the same time, I
- 21:52Speaker 1: don't because I don't need a I don't need a
- 21:54Speaker 1: casual fan.
- 21:57Speaker 3: You know.
- 21:58Speaker 1: They asked actually Charlie McAvoy too to go to see
- 22:00Speaker 1: this interview. They asked them about the LGBTQ nights, and uh,
- 22:06Speaker 1: you know, he answered it politically correct, you know, And
- 22:10Speaker 1: but you could just see like he was just cringing,
- 22:12Speaker 1: Like why am I asked this fucking question? Yeah, Like,
- 22:15Speaker 1: is there like a really like a group of like
- 22:17Speaker 1: fucking gay people that are like, oh my god, I
- 22:19Speaker 1: would love to go to a hockey game, but I
- 22:20Speaker 1: just don't feel comfortable there. Well, Uh, one, I don't
- 22:25Speaker 1: really know if that exists. And two, if that were
- 22:27Speaker 1: the case, it's probably.
- 22:28Speaker 3: Just dressed normal. Maybe I don't know, like don't dress
- 22:31Speaker 3: their drag and go to a game.
- 22:33Speaker 2: But here's the other thing, like if you're like, if
- 22:36Speaker 2: they don't have it, are you unsafe? Like no, You're
- 22:40Speaker 2: in a fucking hockey arena, right, and like it doesn't matter.
- 22:44Speaker 2: Like like the some kid that I work with was
- 22:46Speaker 2: an absolute fucking clown. He was. He came in in
- 22:51Speaker 2: a Red Sox uniform that was like I want to say,
- 22:56Speaker 2: like Harry Potter or something.
- 22:57Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 22:58Speaker 2: I looked at him. I go, where the did you
- 23:00Speaker 2: get that? He goes, I went to the game last night.
- 23:02Speaker 2: They're all over the place. I was like, I was like,
- 23:05Speaker 2: John Henry Is resorted to Harry Potter Red Sox jerseys,
- 23:10Speaker 2: and it was like, you know, the buttons down the middle,
- 23:12Speaker 2: Like yeah, I'm like, what the fuck? Well?
- 23:15Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we got Star Wars Nights of Fenway.
- 23:17Speaker 1: I mean the same kind of thing when we grew up.
- 23:19Speaker 1: I guess I don't know.
- 23:21Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I don't know. I feel like they
- 23:23Speaker 2: just played the game and but I mean no, they.
- 23:26Speaker 1: Didn't have them back then, but now they have them
- 23:28Speaker 1: of Star Wars, which is our generation. I mean that,
- 23:32Speaker 1: I feel is the sign of the times where you
- 23:34Speaker 1: need to think outside of the box to get people
- 23:37Speaker 1: to show up, not to football, but to these other
- 23:40Speaker 1: sports because you know, this new generation. I mean, I
- 23:43Speaker 1: can't even get braid to watch a football game with me.
- 23:45Speaker 1: He asked me next morning. The Patriots win last night,
- 23:47Speaker 1: you know, like I just was on the couch screaming
- 23:49Speaker 1: and yelling for three hours. You didn't bother to ask
- 23:51Speaker 1: me what was going on like they're just two and
- 23:53Speaker 1: twined with TikTok and video games and not being social
- 23:57Speaker 1: on social media, you know, likes. It's just, you know,
- 24:00Speaker 1: we talked about work today, like where's this company gonna be?
- 24:02Speaker 1: Where's lacking mark gonna be in twenty years when the
- 24:04Speaker 1: old hats retire and you know, these kids coming up
- 24:07Speaker 1: and all they want to do is be on their
- 24:08Speaker 1: cell phone all day and not work, and the work
- 24:11Speaker 1: ethic is gone. It's gone, and it frustrates me. And
- 24:15Speaker 1: it's only so much I can do. And I sit
- 24:17Speaker 1: there and you know, and I try to relate with
- 24:20Speaker 1: the younger generation and in a good way, in a
- 24:23Speaker 1: positive way, you know, and it's just I came home today,
- 24:25Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm just kind of fed up.
- 24:27Speaker 3: I mean, I'll be fine.
- 24:28Speaker 1: I'll go back Monday, and you know, the fucking sands
- 24:32Speaker 1: of time, you know, Like, I don't know, it's just frustrating.
- 24:35Speaker 2: I've tried to relate to them. I don't get it. Like, yeah,
- 24:39Speaker 2: one girl, one girl who's a really sweet girl. She's
- 24:42Speaker 2: twenty one, Like she's young and like, but she's a
- 24:44Speaker 2: really nice kid. Like we joke around and stuff. She
- 24:48Speaker 2: was like, if we lose power, How am I gonna
- 24:49Speaker 2: watch TikTok all night Sunday? You're not, like, I don't
- 24:54Speaker 2: know what to tell you. And I said, do I
- 24:55Speaker 2: go if we lose power during the Patriots game, I'm
- 24:58Speaker 2: literally sitting in my car with it running, yeah, watching
- 25:02Speaker 2: no watching it on YouTube TV on my phone as
- 25:04Speaker 2: it's plugged in so it doesn't die right right Like,
- 25:08Speaker 2: but it's like, I don't know, I don't have a
- 25:10Speaker 2: battery pack.
- 25:11Speaker 3: Come on, Chris, I have one, but if we lose power,
- 25:14Speaker 3: I'm gonna have it fully charged.
- 25:16Speaker 2: But but yeah, it was just like and I look
- 25:19Speaker 2: at it, and I look at everything that we talk about,
- 25:22Speaker 2: and it's just different. Like where like you ever drive
- 25:27Speaker 2: by like a field or a basketball.
- 25:29Speaker 3: Court, Yeah, they're dead.
- 25:31Speaker 2: When we were when we were kids, they were like
- 25:33Speaker 2: lined up ten deep, waiting to play.
- 25:35Speaker 3: We have the yell I got next.
- 25:37Speaker 2: Yeah, and now you drive back like I haven't seen.
- 25:40Speaker 2: I can't tell you last time I saw a hit
- 25:42Speaker 2: on a baseball field, right.
- 25:45Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, unless it's organized, you're not seeing fucking
- 25:48Speaker 1: five six kids out in the field just doing a
- 25:50Speaker 1: pickup game or you know, or or like you said,
- 25:54Speaker 1: the basketball court I didn't see them on the tennis courts.
- 25:56Speaker 3: I got tennis courts in my town. You know, I
- 25:59Speaker 3: don't know. It's I don't know how it changes. I
- 26:04Speaker 3: don't know how it changes.
- 26:05Speaker 2: It doesn't, don't.
- 26:06Speaker 1: I just don't understand how you can just like be
- 26:09Speaker 1: on your phone that much. Like I just like pick
- 26:12Speaker 1: your head up, talk to Like, like I get all
- 26:15Speaker 1: these guys in a group at work, and they all
- 26:17Speaker 1: just sit their own desks on their own phones. Like
- 26:19Speaker 1: none of you guys like have anything in common. You
- 26:21Speaker 1: could talk to each other about women, girls, sports, whatever, politics,
- 26:27Speaker 1: fucking current events, pop culture.
- 26:31Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't get it.
- 26:33Speaker 1: Like, and yet you'll just scroll through random idiots online.
- 26:38Speaker 1: You'd rather be friends with people you don't know than
- 26:40Speaker 1: people sitting across from you.
- 26:42Speaker 3: It's fucking strange to me.
- 26:45Speaker 2: You know. It's funny because you see on like Instagram.
- 26:48Speaker 2: Here a I'm talking about it, but like you see
- 26:50Speaker 2: on Instagram, I don't know.
- 26:51Speaker 3: I mean, I'm guilty of it. I'm on these sites,
- 26:52Speaker 3: but I just I can't do it.
- 26:55Speaker 2: You see the post where it's like like four kids
- 26:58Speaker 2: on a bike and it's like, yeah, we were outside
- 27:00Speaker 2: for fourteen hours. We came home dirty, probably had scrapes
- 27:04Speaker 2: on her knee and everything, And all our parents said
- 27:06Speaker 2: was did you have fun?
- 27:07Speaker 3: Yeah? But like these kids because we came home too late.
- 27:12Speaker 2: Yeah, like it we used to do that. And I
- 27:16Speaker 2: just like, when's the last time you saw kids riding bikes?
- 27:19Speaker 2: And you know, it makes me sick and I've seen it.
- 27:21Speaker 2: There's kids in our complex. They don't ride bikes. They
- 27:25Speaker 2: ride the electrical ones. Mm hmm, Like you can't even
- 27:28Speaker 2: pedal anymore.
- 27:29Speaker 3: No, they don't pedal anymore.
- 27:31Speaker 2: No where are what world are we living in now?
- 27:33Speaker 1: Branden does his buddy does they ride their bikes? He
- 27:38Speaker 1: wants an eat bike. I'm like, no one there did
- 27:41Speaker 1: just go too fast. I just it's just the safety
- 27:43Speaker 1: thing with me, Like, you know, I worry about these kids.
- 27:46Speaker 1: I worry about you know a lot of it is too,
- 27:48Speaker 1: Like I worry when he goes bike riding because it's
- 27:50Speaker 1: just like, you know, a kid one year older than
- 27:53Speaker 1: him has a license and they're on.
- 27:54Speaker 3: Their phone driving and not paying attention to hit them.
- 27:56Speaker 3: You know, like it's just it's it's don't know, man,
- 28:00Speaker 3: I don't know how we went down this road, but yeah,
- 28:03Speaker 3: we can talk about this. We talking at length.
- 28:06Speaker 2: We always talk about sticking to the subjects.
- 28:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, we had three subjects today. We're not
- 28:11Speaker 1: even really gotten through one yet besides the reps in Denver.
- 28:14Speaker 1: Uh all right, well let's go to game game two.
- 28:17Speaker 1: We'll finish with the Pats, so we'll kind of preview.
- 28:21Speaker 1: By the way, were you up for that game on
- 28:25Speaker 1: Sunday night? After the Pats game, the Caleb Williams throw
- 28:28Speaker 1: in the end of over to force overtime?
- 28:30Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I stayed up.
- 28:32Speaker 1: I mean, granted wasn't as late as like an eight
- 28:33Speaker 1: o'clock game, but that that was crazy. That was a
- 28:36Speaker 1: crazy play. I don't know how the dude was that
- 28:39Speaker 1: wide open? Uh what a throw by Caleb. I think
- 28:43Speaker 1: Caleb's probably gonna be number two behind May when he
- 28:46Speaker 1: when this draft class fizzles out, you know, and probably
- 28:49Speaker 1: I would go May Caleb bo Jadon Daniels. Then I
- 28:53Speaker 1: don't know enough about Pannex and McCarthy yet.
- 28:55Speaker 2: Who knows the thing is is well number one. Macarthy's atrocious.
- 29:00Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think I could see him getting
- 29:02Speaker 3: traded the fucking the Chargers.
- 29:04Speaker 2: But yeah, well that in Panics like he's shown flashes,
- 29:09Speaker 2: but he just tore his fourth acl Yeah. Yeah, like
- 29:13Speaker 2: like he literally tore two in his left knee in college.
- 29:17Speaker 1: Well he was, he was in Indiana right when he
- 29:19Speaker 1: toured it before he went to Washington.
- 29:22Speaker 2: Yeah. So so like he he had all that and
- 29:27Speaker 2: they still drafted him. And then what happens partially tears
- 29:31Speaker 2: it this year.
- 29:31Speaker 1: Yeah, and Jane Daniels, who knows, he's I think he's
- 29:34Speaker 1: gonna be injury prone his whole career. Uh, but but
- 29:38Speaker 1: I gotta get props to Caleb.
- 29:40Speaker 3: I mean, he had it. You know. They can't live
- 29:43Speaker 3: that way.
- 29:43Speaker 1: Next year, they got to start winning games and without
- 29:45Speaker 1: this crazy you know, that's what happened to Kansas City
- 29:48Speaker 1: this year. Kansas City won what eleven they were eleven
- 29:50Speaker 1: to zero and fucking one score games, and then this
- 29:52Speaker 1: year fucking the opposite, and.
- 29:54Speaker 3: Minnesota was like that the year before.
- 29:56Speaker 1: So Chicago still has to get better anyway, But that
- 29:59Speaker 1: was a hell of a game, I you know, of course,
- 30:00Speaker 1: and then he throws the interception over time like the god.
- 30:03Speaker 3: But uh but it's so it's it's Seattle Rams. I
- 30:07Speaker 3: think they split the season series, Am I correct?
- 30:10Speaker 2: I believe that.
- 30:11Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think one of the games, actually Seattle
- 30:13Speaker 1: is down pretty big came back and won. I honestly
- 30:18Speaker 1: don't really I didn't really We didn't play either team,
- 30:20Speaker 1: so I didn't really watch them that much. I don't
- 30:21Speaker 1: have the ticket, so I know Seattle's defense is really good.
- 30:25Speaker 1: I know the Chargers offense is really good. I mean Chargers,
- 30:29Speaker 1: the Rams offense is a really good There's players all
- 30:33Speaker 1: over the board. I'm just gonna go Seattle because their
- 30:37Speaker 1: home field. I don't really have a score for you anything.
- 30:40Speaker 1: Who cares doesn't matter what I say.
- 30:41Speaker 2: Anyway, Well, if you look at it, if you look
- 30:44Speaker 2: at it, of the like six parts of a game,
- 30:47Speaker 2: you know, I think Seattle's defense would be number one.
- 30:50Speaker 2: You'd put the Rams number two. You know their offense
- 30:54Speaker 2: number two, right, But I just think, like you know,
- 30:57Speaker 2: special teams and everything, but I just think I think
- 30:59Speaker 2: Sea's defense is way too tough for the Rams because
- 31:06Speaker 2: I don't think the Rams can match them physicality wise. Yeah,
- 31:10Speaker 2: you know, because they used to playing in LA They're
- 31:12Speaker 2: throwing the ball all over the place, you know, but
- 31:15Speaker 2: now you go into a cold weather area, they run
- 31:17Speaker 2: the ball really well. Their defense like flies all over
- 31:20Speaker 2: the field. I just I think it's too much for
- 31:23Speaker 2: the Rams at this point.
- 31:24Speaker 1: Could be I mean they probably, I mean the Rams
- 31:27Speaker 1: should have lost last week. Well I shouldn't say should have.
- 31:31Speaker 3: It was just not a great game on either side
- 31:32Speaker 3: of the ball until that last play and then overtime
- 31:36Speaker 3: it was ten to ten for like ever, it seemed like,
- 31:39Speaker 3: but who.
- 31:41Speaker 2: Would you rather play?
- 31:44Speaker 3: You know what?
- 31:46Speaker 1: I think like a quick answer would be the Rams,
- 31:48Speaker 1: just because their defense isn't as good as Seattle. But
- 31:51Speaker 1: holy shit, the gauntlet of defenses. If we win this week,
- 31:54Speaker 1: we've gone through Fuck it, what's one more?
- 31:58Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean, well what we've gone through? The what
- 32:00Speaker 2: the number five? The number two? And we'll play Denver tomorrow,
- 32:05Speaker 2: which is the number one defense in the NFL.
- 32:07Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 32:08Speaker 2: But by the way, that none of that counts. It's
- 32:10Speaker 2: still soft schedule. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know what I mean,
- 32:14Speaker 2: Like it's none of that.
- 32:15Speaker 3: County, what was it?
- 32:17Speaker 1: It was like a study, not a study, but they
- 32:19Speaker 1: did a thing, and like I think they were probably
- 32:21Speaker 1: like it was starting to come up how easy their
- 32:24Speaker 1: schedule was. I think it was after Burrow they didn't
- 32:26Speaker 1: play Burrow and the Borough came back the next week
- 32:28Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, you know, it really an easy schedule.
- 32:30Speaker 3: But then I think it was.
- 32:33Speaker 1: It was it was it was a Boston guy, Phil
- 32:35Speaker 1: Perry maybe came out with something about the strength of
- 32:40Speaker 1: the defenses they played, and a lot of them were
- 32:43Speaker 1: really good last year outside of what they're going through now.
- 32:48Speaker 1: I forget what the I just thought of it now,
- 32:49Speaker 1: but yeah, there's like, you know, does anyone want to
- 32:53Speaker 1: talk about Denver schedule?
- 32:55Speaker 2: They had the second softest schedule in the NFL.
- 32:59Speaker 3: Yeah, behind us, Yeah, no, but no one mention is that.
- 33:03Speaker 2: No Buffalo, Buffalo was top tens off the schedules, right, nobody, No.
- 33:09Speaker 1: I mean, their their division is basically the same as ours.
- 33:11Speaker 1: They have two really bad teams last year, which was
- 33:14Speaker 1: the Raiders in Kansas City, and then they had a
- 33:17Speaker 1: playoff team which was the Chargers, and we had fucking
- 33:19Speaker 1: Buffalo and we had the Jets in Miami.
- 33:21Speaker 3: Obviously it's almost mirrored, to be honest with you.
- 33:23Speaker 1: The Jets were about the Raiders and the fucking Miami
- 33:27Speaker 1: was actually probably had a better record than Kansas City.
- 33:29Speaker 3: I think they did. Actually think Kansas City finished with
- 33:31Speaker 3: six wins, Miami seven or eight. You know, and then
- 33:37Speaker 3: common opponents or whatever, like obviously we played a different
- 33:39Speaker 3: NFC division, but that's it's all random. Like you said,
- 33:43Speaker 3: next year schedules look looks on paper to be hard.
- 33:46Speaker 2: But what division do we play next year? I think
- 33:49Speaker 2: it's do I think it's the West.
- 33:51Speaker 3: It's the West.
- 33:52Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And they got three playoff teams this year,
- 33:55Speaker 1: so I mean, but that'll be cool. I mean, you know,
- 34:00Speaker 1: I look at it as I would rather play these
- 34:07Speaker 1: really tough defenses because I think if you win those games,
- 34:10Speaker 1: that proves that, you know, it's it's one thing if
- 34:13Speaker 1: you just play bad defenses and outscore your opponent, right.
- 34:18Speaker 2: For I was just gonna say, if you're if you're
- 34:22Speaker 2: beating like a really bad defense forty two to ten,
- 34:25Speaker 2: it's not as good as beating a really good defense
- 34:27Speaker 2: sixteen to three.
- 34:28Speaker 3: Right, or like we just did you know?
- 34:30Speaker 1: And but I've watched Denver a few times this year,
- 34:36Speaker 1: and I watched obviously the game last week, and I think, uh,
- 34:40Speaker 1: I just now with stid him in like at Steve
- 34:43Speaker 1: Young was listening to Steve Young on the radio the
- 34:44Speaker 1: other day and he's just like, I don't think people
- 34:47Speaker 1: understand coming into a game like this that really the
- 34:50Speaker 1: guy hasn't started. You can take all the reps you
- 34:52Speaker 1: want in practice, you're not getting NFL playoff speed.
- 34:57Speaker 2: And isn't it like he hasn't played a snap of
- 35:02Speaker 2: like regular football. It's like two thousand and.
- 35:04Speaker 3: Three, yeah, something crazy.
- 35:07Speaker 1: They keep showing the game against the Niners or something
- 35:09Speaker 1: when he was on the Raiders.
- 35:11Speaker 3: That's think the one game to go. Look, lo throw
- 35:12Speaker 3: he made here, Okay, whatever.
- 35:16Speaker 2: But like literally all the guy has done since then
- 35:18Speaker 2: is take Neil downs. Yeah.
- 35:21Speaker 1: Now, so like he was he was going to be
- 35:22Speaker 1: Brady's replacement at one point, you know if you listen
- 35:25Speaker 1: to Felger and Maz And then he went on this
- 35:28Speaker 1: weird journey on Instagram with his girlfriend and they drove
- 35:30Speaker 1: cross country remember all this shit.
- 35:33Speaker 2: I don't remember that.
- 35:34Speaker 1: No, you don't remember that, And like they just said
- 35:36Speaker 1: his heart's not in it and they just shipped him out.
- 35:39Speaker 3: Then he went to the Raiders and then Denver. You
- 35:41Speaker 3: remember that stuff?
- 35:43Speaker 2: Oh man, No, I do? I did hear this week
- 35:46Speaker 2: Max Crosby say that Stidham is literally one of his
- 35:49Speaker 2: best friends.
- 35:50Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure the guys are really good, dude. Yeah,
- 35:54Speaker 3: look at look at it that. I just I just
- 35:56Speaker 3: remember all that, and I'm like, oh my.
- 35:57Speaker 2: God, do you remember what one of his best plays
- 36:01Speaker 2: ever in college?
- 36:02Speaker 1: Now?
- 36:02Speaker 2: It was against I want to say it was against Alabama.
- 36:06Speaker 2: He threw the ball down field right and the Alabama
- 36:10Speaker 2: defenders like bumped into each other and the ball went
- 36:13Speaker 2: straight up in the air and behind them was the
- 36:16Speaker 2: Auburn receiver who just caught it ran into the end zone.
- 36:19Speaker 3: Yeah. Hey, like better looking than good? Right?
- 36:22Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I don't know if we're gonna if
- 36:26Speaker 2: we're looking at the game itself. Now, I do have
- 36:28Speaker 2: some concerns. There are a couple. One we turned the
- 36:32Speaker 2: ball over way too much.
- 36:33Speaker 3: Yeah, well, like forgot we fumble it too much.
- 36:37Speaker 2: We fumble it, like I know, I feel back for Drake.
- 36:40Speaker 2: He got stuck with an interception last week on that
- 36:42Speaker 2: hail marriage.
- 36:42Speaker 3: Oh and everyone uses it like to his turnover margin.
- 36:45Speaker 1: I'm like, are you fucking kidding me? And I think
- 36:48Speaker 1: I think what he fumbled four times, right, I think
- 36:52Speaker 1: one of them probably, I mean, honestly, the two strip sacks,
- 36:55Speaker 1: I think one of them he probably shouldn't because he
- 36:57Speaker 1: ended up pulling the ball in and then patted it again.
- 37:00Speaker 1: That's on him. One of them I don't think really
- 37:02Speaker 1: was on him. Uh, the with the rush up the
- 37:05Speaker 1: middle was on him. You got to protect that ball
- 37:07Speaker 1: and go down.
- 37:08Speaker 2: It was, but it was so far away from his Yeah.
- 37:12Speaker 3: And then you have Yeah, just I don't know, like.
- 37:16Speaker 1: I I put equal onus on the offensive line on
- 37:18Speaker 1: that side. You know, you see on when you was
- 37:22Speaker 1: like fucking the number one rated fucking guard.
- 37:25Speaker 2: It was. It was Morgan Moses. He was the number
- 37:28Speaker 2: one rated and then when you was like the number
- 37:33Speaker 2: one rated guard.
- 37:33Speaker 1: But that's like kind of fools gold to say that,
- 37:36Speaker 1: but like because you know he's not facing Will Anderson,
- 37:40Speaker 1: you know, like.
- 37:41Speaker 2: Like they're lining everybody up against w. Yeah.
- 37:45Speaker 1: I almost feel like they need to they should flip
- 37:47Speaker 1: it and get a veteran on that side instead of having.
- 37:49Speaker 3: Just both rookies over there.
- 37:51Speaker 1: But whatever, Yeah, I've already been reading that they're looking
- 37:56Speaker 1: to move Campbell to left guard and get another tack
- 38:00Speaker 1: And they say if if Will Campbell played guard, he'd
- 38:02Speaker 1: be a Hall of Famer.
- 38:03Speaker 3: I don't know, just whatever, I know, I see that.
- 38:05Speaker 2: I see that all the time if people tell me,
- 38:08Speaker 2: and like people at work, that aren't Patriots fans. Will like,
- 38:11Speaker 2: you know, he would be a lock for an All
- 38:14Speaker 2: Pro All NFL left guard every year. And I'm just like,
- 38:19Speaker 2: I'm just like, ah, I will say this, if he
- 38:22Speaker 2: stays at left tackle, he needs to hit the weight room.
- 38:24Speaker 1: Oh he sure does. I mean they always talk about
- 38:27Speaker 1: his arms aren't long enough. I mean maybe so, I
- 38:29Speaker 1: don't know, uh, but I just he again, You're you're
- 38:33Speaker 1: you're putting it all to a microcosm of a playoff
- 38:35Speaker 1: game and you're literally going against the first team All
- 38:38Speaker 1: Pro Will Anderson Junior, who's gonna command a ship ton
- 38:41Speaker 1: of money.
- 38:42Speaker 2: And Danielle Hunter like yeah, yeah, right.
- 38:45Speaker 3: There, right right behind him, and it's.
- 38:49Speaker 1: He's doing this to everybody. He's doing this to fucking
- 38:51Speaker 1: ten year vets, you know, like I I don't. And
- 38:55Speaker 1: and my favorite thing about Will Campbell that game was
- 38:58Speaker 1: when he was walking in the tunnel and he just
- 39:00Speaker 1: looked so depressed and Frabel was there and you know,
- 39:03Speaker 1: gave him a little pat and he just still looked depressed,
- 39:05Speaker 1: and Rabel gave him a little fucking tap on his cheek,
- 39:07Speaker 1: you know, like gin up, and like, yeah, I know
- 39:11Speaker 1: he wants to be good and I know he's humbled
- 39:13Speaker 1: and and and I think that he may not pan
- 39:15Speaker 1: out into this week's game. I mean, another good defense
- 39:18Speaker 1: I'm playing.
- 39:18Speaker 2: But I'm not making excuses. But for his rookie year,
- 39:23Speaker 2: he also missed four games. Yeah, so like if you're
- 39:27Speaker 2: a rookie, you need to play right to to, you know.
- 39:30Speaker 2: And his first his first game back was what the one?
- 39:34Speaker 2: Who do we finish the season against the Dolphins?
- 39:36Speaker 3: Dolphins?
- 39:37Speaker 2: And he played like three series, so it's like, what
- 39:41Speaker 2: do you you know?
- 39:42Speaker 3: What it's like? Top party defense, top pretty defense? Right
- 39:45Speaker 3: after that?
- 39:45Speaker 1: You know, yeah, yeah, I mean whatever it is, and
- 39:48Speaker 1: he's back if you gotta. I just think I don't
- 39:51Speaker 1: think May stepped up in the pocket far enough, you
- 39:55Speaker 1: know what I mean?
- 39:55Speaker 3: Uh, And I think I think that doing that is twofold.
- 39:59Speaker 1: One you're not gonna get strips sacked most likely, and
- 40:04Speaker 1: two if you do get sacked, it's not like a
- 40:07Speaker 1: fucking thirteen yard loss.
- 40:09Speaker 3: You know.
- 40:09Speaker 1: If you step up a good step up, and he's
- 40:11Speaker 1: good at doing that. He just kept he didn't seem
- 40:14Speaker 1: to step up that much. I'm sure they're gonna And
- 40:16Speaker 1: then they started rolling him out a little bit, which
- 40:18Speaker 1: I thought was smart. I don't think they're gonna put
- 40:20Speaker 1: him in position to just straight drop back and rely
- 40:24Speaker 1: on Will Campbell to block whoever's rushing him.
- 40:26Speaker 2: No, and they roll out. They roll out to the right, right,
- 40:29Speaker 2: so they're smart, roll out to the right.
- 40:32Speaker 1: Yeah, so I think I think our game plan will
- 40:35Speaker 1: be there. You know what, My biggest fear, and it
- 40:37Speaker 1: might be yours in.
- 40:38Speaker 3: This game, is Jared's did him?
- 40:41Speaker 2: Uh?
- 40:42Speaker 1: I know, like when Bill was our coach, we you know,
- 40:44Speaker 1: he always had these great records against rookie quarterbacks, and
- 40:49Speaker 1: I always like think of the worst possible scenario, and like,
- 40:55Speaker 1: we get the ball, we don't score in the first drive.
- 40:58Speaker 1: They get the ball and he just goes down the
- 41:01Speaker 1: field on these short, little thinking dunks and then hits
- 41:04Speaker 1: one maybe thirty yards down the middle and touchdown.
- 41:06Speaker 3: And and I don't know.
- 41:08Speaker 1: That's like my fear, Like I don't we should not
- 41:11Speaker 1: lose this game, like even close, it shouldn't even be close.
- 41:14Speaker 1: I was good I had winning if bo Nicks was
- 41:17Speaker 1: the quarterback. I almost feel like, fuck now there's just
- 41:20Speaker 1: like everyone's gonna play harder because they know they have to.
- 41:25Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, but you know it's funny is like
- 41:27Speaker 2: one of the things that used to happen back in
- 41:29Speaker 2: the Dynasty, Like we got lit up by Matt Flynn
- 41:33Speaker 2: one night. Like we there was some like backup quarterbacks
- 41:38Speaker 2: that like came into Foxboro and through for like three
- 41:40Speaker 2: hundred nights. I know, you know, Like I think it
- 41:42Speaker 2: was a Sunday night game. It was supposed to be
- 41:44Speaker 2: Brady Rogers and Matt Flynn's the backup in Green Bay.
- 41:47Speaker 2: And he comes in and throws for like three hundred yards. Yeah,
- 41:50Speaker 2: I think we still won the game. But like he
- 41:52Speaker 2: he came in and like through for three hundred yards
- 41:54Speaker 2: like four touchdowns, Like.
- 41:56Speaker 3: Oh, I guarantee he throws for like two seventy minimum.
- 42:00Speaker 3: Why I actually I want to look. I want to
- 42:01Speaker 3: look at like what is over under? Is it for yards?
- 42:03Speaker 1: Because obviously if they get down early, he's just gonna
- 42:05Speaker 1: be chucking it all over the field.
- 42:07Speaker 3: He's gonna have to. I think I think Gonzo has
- 42:10Speaker 3: a big pick six in this game. To be honest
- 42:12Speaker 3: with you.
- 42:12Speaker 2: They don't. They don't have a good rushing at right.
- 42:16Speaker 3: Well, they got r. J. Harvey.
- 42:18Speaker 1: I mean he's a decent back, but no, they're not.
- 42:20Speaker 1: They don't really have a great running game. I think
- 42:22Speaker 1: bo Nick's probably inflated those stats because he ran a lot.
- 42:26Speaker 3: Uh.
- 42:26Speaker 1: You know, Courtland Sutton's a you know, decent receiver, decent one.
- 42:30Speaker 1: I mean, he's solid. He's somebody you got to put,
- 42:32Speaker 1: you know, Gonzales on probably Franklin's pretty good. Yeah, yeah,
- 42:38Speaker 1: he's pretty good.
- 42:40Speaker 3: You know they got I mean, do you stick Marcus
- 42:43Speaker 3: Jones on Franklin because he's not that big, but he
- 42:46Speaker 3: is really fast. Yeah, So like is that your play? Probably?
- 42:51Speaker 2: And then and then I'm not gonna lie. One guy
- 42:54Speaker 2: that worries me is Calton Davis. Yes, he came up
- 42:57Speaker 2: with some big plays, but like he had in the playoffs,
- 43:01Speaker 2: he's had he had two interceptions and three pass interference calls.
- 43:06Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'll take the I'll take the two interceptions
- 43:08Speaker 3: over three p I's every day.
- 43:10Speaker 2: Oh of course, the change change in the field.
- 43:13Speaker 1: I mean one one of the interceptions was phenomenal. The
- 43:16Speaker 1: other one you just saw happening like he was just
- 43:19Speaker 1: there was just an awful throw.
- 43:20Speaker 3: By by c. J.
- 43:21Speaker 1: Stroud, like just I couldn't even believe it when he
- 43:24Speaker 1: threw it. I'm like, literally he threw it and the
- 43:26Speaker 1: angle on the TV. Happened to be like from up
- 43:28Speaker 1: top and you're just like, like what is he doing?
- 43:31Speaker 1: And then of course he just it was like right
- 43:32Speaker 1: in his hands.
- 43:33Speaker 2: But see here's the thing, right, we forced those turnovers. Yeah,
- 43:39Speaker 2: the one, the one, the one interception by Carlton Davis,
- 43:42Speaker 2: the one where he only got his knee down, but
- 43:44Speaker 2: that like counted as an interception like his first one.
- 43:47Speaker 2: Stroud over throw that ball, but like the one that
- 43:50Speaker 2: the one that Marcus Jones, like Caleb and Chasen was
- 43:54Speaker 2: literally had him in his arms. Yeah, and he just
- 43:57Speaker 2: threw it right, like I mean, he should have thrown it,
- 44:00Speaker 2: but no, but we also like we also he was
- 44:04Speaker 2: so uncomfortable in that pocket, so like so like I
- 44:09Speaker 2: just don't understand, like when people like Herbert couldn't do
- 44:12Speaker 2: shit against us because of our defense. Yeah, Stroud looked
- 44:16Speaker 2: like shit because of our defense. By the way, I
- 44:20Speaker 2: heard something and that was on the radio, and it
- 44:22Speaker 2: was crazy Houston. Houston this offseason has to choose whether
- 44:26Speaker 2: to extend him or not. Well, yeah, and are you
- 44:30Speaker 2: are you after watching like this game, like are you
- 44:35Speaker 2: comfortable giving them three hundred million dollars?
- 44:38Speaker 1: I mean, I said after the game, you have to
- 44:43Speaker 1: you know, let's let's just say they're the Ravens defense, right,
- 44:48Speaker 1: the ray Lewis Ravens defense.
- 44:50Speaker 3: You know, Will Anderson's ray Lewis right, just whatever.
- 44:54Speaker 1: You had a quarterback in Joe Flacco who wouldn't necessarily
- 44:59Speaker 1: win you games, but he didn't need to, but he
- 45:02Speaker 1: didn't lose you games.
- 45:04Speaker 3: And c J. Stroud lost them this game.
- 45:07Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, obviously New England's defense had a lot
- 45:12Speaker 1: to do with that. But if you had just more
- 45:15Speaker 1: of a steady Eddy behind there, I think had you
- 45:19Speaker 1: have a very short window with these defenses, you don't
- 45:23Speaker 1: have a big window, and they come and go. I remember,
- 45:25Speaker 1: you know, the the Seattle's defense.
- 45:28Speaker 3: That was about three year stretch.
- 45:29Speaker 1: You know, Baltimore was probably one of the longest stretches
- 45:31Speaker 1: because ray Lewis stayed good for so long. You know,
- 45:35Speaker 1: you know, killing people gives you extra energy. I don't
- 45:37Speaker 1: know if you knew that he probably drank their blood
- 45:39Speaker 1: in the street.
- 45:39Speaker 3: I don't know that.
- 45:41Speaker 2: And also I mean, wait, it was it was it
- 45:46Speaker 2: was the week of the Super Bowl. Someone caught him
- 45:50Speaker 2: taking like deer antler spray or something, and it was
- 45:54Speaker 2: just like it's just they let it go because they
- 45:59Speaker 2: obviously like who knows about deer as right? I know
- 46:02Speaker 2: about it because I looked it up. But but like.
- 46:05Speaker 1: You know, yeah, so I think, uh, if I were them,
- 46:09Speaker 1: I would not give him three hundred million. I think
- 46:11Speaker 1: they're probably gonna because there's just the thing to do.
- 46:13Speaker 2: Well at this point, where do you turn into the draft?
- 46:17Speaker 1: You go get a fucking veteran who I don't know.
- 46:21Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I don't have it in
- 46:23Speaker 1: front of me. Who's available? You could do trades? Uh? Fuck,
- 46:29Speaker 1: have Kirk Cousins run your offense for two years. Philip
- 46:33Speaker 1: Rivers wouldn't have had a worse game than fucking CJ's
- 46:36Speaker 1: drought did well.
- 46:37Speaker 2: Cousins is gonna have to start in Atlanta because Michael
- 46:40Speaker 2: Pennox is hard.
- 46:41Speaker 3: I'm just saying, like somebody like that Joe fla Joe Flacco.
- 46:47Speaker 2: By the way, did you see that Philip Rivers?
- 46:51Speaker 3: Yeah? Weird?
- 46:52Speaker 2: What the hell brought do on?
- 46:54Speaker 3: Weird?
- 46:54Speaker 1: Because he coaches high school? I don't Yeah, I don't
- 46:57Speaker 1: understand that. It's it's not a Rooney rule. I don't
- 47:00Speaker 1: understand it. Uh, but all right again, we you know,
- 47:05Speaker 1: We've really got to like do like a six hour
- 47:07Speaker 1: pre show show, because we just go off. We're not
- 47:10Speaker 1: even talking about the game we're supposed to talk about.
- 47:12Speaker 1: All right, let's do this.
- 47:13Speaker 3: Who do you got Sunday night? Not the Patriots game,
- 47:15Speaker 3: the other game.
- 47:17Speaker 2: I'm thinking Seahawks. I think they just wear them down.
- 47:19Speaker 2: I think they just wear them down because they've run
- 47:21Speaker 2: the ball really well too, so like their defense beats
- 47:25Speaker 2: them up and then you know, you just you know,
- 47:28Speaker 2: you just keep the ball away from them by running
- 47:30Speaker 2: the ball.
- 47:31Speaker 1: All right, NFL conspiracy, NFL. Let's say they want May
- 47:37Speaker 1: against Stafford, the two MVP favorites, right, they already have
- 47:41Speaker 1: half of them in there.
- 47:42Speaker 3: I think the NFL would think, all right, the Patriots
- 47:44Speaker 3: is going to win that game. We could throw a
- 47:45Speaker 3: flag here, flag there. They're in.
- 47:47Speaker 1: We probably have to do a little better work in
- 47:49Speaker 1: this game, but that would be their best matchup. Now,
- 47:53Speaker 1: there's a lot of storylines in the Seattle Patriots because
- 47:55Speaker 1: it's a rematch, but there's I mean, they don't want
- 48:00Speaker 1: what Stidham in the game.
- 48:01Speaker 3: No matter what.
- 48:02Speaker 2: But here's the other doesn't mean.
- 48:03Speaker 3: He's not gonna make it because Foles.
- 48:06Speaker 2: So you you think about, like the NFL media machine, right,
- 48:12Speaker 2: for two weeks they have to talk about this game.
- 48:15Speaker 2: Now you look at it and you think to yourself,
- 48:17Speaker 2: if it's Patriots rams, we beat them in the Super
- 48:20Speaker 2: Bowl twice, right, And then you go back and you
- 48:24Speaker 2: talk about those right, And then with the Seahawks, you
- 48:28Speaker 2: talk about the Malcolm Butler interception, and like you get
- 48:32Speaker 2: interviews from everybody for that, you know what I mean. Like,
- 48:35Speaker 2: I'm just trying to think of like the media thing.
- 48:37Speaker 2: I did see a stat today that made me think
- 48:41Speaker 2: the Patriots might win in playoff games in Denver. The
- 48:49Speaker 2: Patriots are rowing.
- 48:50Speaker 3: Four yeah against l Way and fucking Manny, right or No?
- 48:56Speaker 3: They never played Lway in the did they play?
- 48:58Speaker 2: No? They never played No?
- 49:00Speaker 3: And who else they lose to?
- 49:03Speaker 2: I think it was Brian Was it Brian Greasy?
- 49:08Speaker 1: Oh no, I'd have to look it up. I have
- 49:09Speaker 1: a school game they lost to them. We lost twice
- 49:13Speaker 1: the Manning.
- 49:13Speaker 2: Right, we lost so we lost the ones. Yeah, so
- 49:17Speaker 2: we lost that one to Manning. I know. The second
- 49:19Speaker 2: one was the one where like Gronk Brady Hick Gronk
- 49:23Speaker 2: in the back of the end zone and we needed
- 49:24Speaker 2: a two point conversion you didn't get Yeah, we didn't
- 49:28Speaker 2: get it that one. Yeah, I remember, Yeah, wasn't that
- 49:34Speaker 2: losing that game? Losing that game was what stopped us
- 49:39Speaker 2: from going to like a sixth consecutive Super Bowl. Yeah, right,
- 49:44Speaker 2: like because we we wanted the year before. We missed
- 49:46Speaker 2: it that year. Then we went the next three years
- 49:49Speaker 2: and won two of them.
- 49:52Speaker 3: Are you ready?
- 49:53Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 49:54Speaker 3: Nineteen eighty six.
- 49:55Speaker 2: Season, Oh Jesus, Tony Easton.
- 49:59Speaker 1: Yeah, it was the year after we went to the
- 50:01Speaker 1: Super Bowl. We lost to Lway. So we did lose
- 50:05Speaker 1: the Lway. This is the one in question. Two thousand
- 50:08Speaker 1: and six Broncos.
- 50:11Speaker 2: Wasn't that? Wasn't that the Champ Bailey one hundred yard
- 50:15Speaker 2: interception return that he fumbled out of the end zone
- 50:18Speaker 2: but they still gave him the touchdown?
- 50:20Speaker 1: Oh that what's his name caught him?
- 50:23Speaker 3: Ben Watson? Caught him Ben Watson?
- 50:25Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was. And that was and that
- 50:28Speaker 2: was the that was stopping us from going on a
- 50:31Speaker 2: three P. That's what stopped three P.
- 50:34Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 50:35Speaker 1: And then the other two were twenty fourteen and twenty sixteen,
- 50:39Speaker 1: which were both Manning.
- 50:41Speaker 3: Manning Yeah, so yeah, I mean, just didn't make that list.
- 50:47Speaker 3: I doubt it.
- 50:48Speaker 1: Like if Stiden makes a Super Bowl, then they got
- 50:50Speaker 1: two weeks of trying to come up with one how
- 50:53Speaker 1: they can win the Super Bowl and two. It's not
- 50:55Speaker 1: like when Brady. I'll never forget the first year. Well,
- 51:00Speaker 1: I remember in ninety five or ninety six when the
- 51:02Speaker 1: Patriots made it with Drew Bledsoe. They were like, oh,
- 51:05Speaker 1: I can they can win this game and we all
- 51:07Speaker 1: were like eh. In two thousand and one, it is
- 51:09Speaker 1: the same thing with Brady. They're like they come up
- 51:11Speaker 1: with reasons why the rookie could do it. But you
- 51:13Speaker 1: know Stim has been around for six seven years now.
- 51:17Speaker 2: When yeah, when did he get drafted? I mean he
- 51:19Speaker 2: was he was.
- 51:20Speaker 1: Brady's back up, so it was seventeen eighteen somewhere around there.
- 51:24Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he was Cam's back up in twenty twenty,
- 51:27Speaker 2: so that's like five plus years there. Yeah, and we.
- 51:30Speaker 3: Were talking about why isn't Stidham starting over Cam. I
- 51:32Speaker 3: remember those talks.
- 51:34Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's another reason why I don't get Cam
- 51:37Speaker 2: like bashing us. Like Bill gave you five million dollars
- 51:41Speaker 2: guaranteed over the two years. Yeah, when no one wanted you,
- 51:46Speaker 2: you were like three for twenty one in a game,
- 51:48Speaker 2: and he turned around and started you the next week.
- 51:50Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, like, you know, I fuck Cam, you know what.
- 51:56Speaker 1: I was excited when he got this because I still
- 51:58Speaker 1: thought he had something left in the tank, you know,
- 52:01Speaker 1: but he didn't. He put that post about all the
- 52:05Speaker 1: Maze fumbles, and I commented on it. I got a
- 52:06Speaker 1: shit ton of likes. It was, uh, well, at least
- 52:09Speaker 1: May goes after his fumbles.
- 52:12Speaker 2: Dude. They showed that replay the other the other day.
- 52:15Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so pathetic and.
- 52:18Speaker 2: It's like he's just standing there looking down at it.
- 52:20Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 52:20Speaker 2: Dive. Yeah, you're the biggest You're probably the biggest guy
- 52:23Speaker 2: in that area. Just fucking dive for it.
- 52:26Speaker 3: Oh man.
- 52:27Speaker 1: I mean that game end up being a blowout anyway,
- 52:29Speaker 1: but whatever. All right, let's get to the Pats game,
- 52:32Speaker 1: the big game of the weekend. Three o'clock Sunday afternoon,
- 52:36Speaker 1: in the middle of a blizzard. By the way, do
- 52:38Speaker 1: we know what the weather forecast is for Denver on Sunday?
- 52:41Speaker 2: I have I heard on the radio today it's uh
- 52:46Speaker 2: somewhere around forty there's gonna be there's gonna be some
- 52:49Speaker 2: win and maybe snowflowries.
- 52:51Speaker 3: Oh so nothing crazy.
- 52:53Speaker 1: That's forty's bombing this time of year, all right, So
- 52:56Speaker 1: the weather's not going to be a factor, which probably
- 52:58Speaker 1: vodes well for us.
- 53:00Speaker 2: Think it probably favors us.
- 53:02Speaker 3: Yeah, I think. I mean, I don't really want to.
- 53:06Speaker 1: We kind of broke down a lot of what's going
- 53:08Speaker 1: on in this game, so I don't want to really
- 53:09Speaker 1: rehash it.
- 53:12Speaker 3: I'll do a quick score prediction, even though obviously you
- 53:14Speaker 3: know I feel about making score predictions. But I think.
- 53:20Speaker 1: There's a very good possibility of a blowout. I think
- 53:24Speaker 1: it's probably par for the course with the Patriots to
- 53:26Speaker 1: be close at the half. Maybe we're up three or
- 53:29Speaker 1: a touchdown, and then you know, we just kind of pull.
- 53:32Speaker 3: Away mid third, late third quarter.
- 53:33Speaker 1: And fourth quarters, just kind of you know, enjoying the time,
- 53:36Speaker 1: and up by you know, more than three scores, maybe
- 53:39Speaker 1: more more than two scores. I could see like a
- 53:41Speaker 1: twenty seven to ten final something around there would be
- 53:44Speaker 1: my guess. Wouldn't surprise me if it was close, it
- 53:48Speaker 1: surprised me. If we lose, I'll tell you that I.
- 53:50Speaker 2: Was surprised me. But I think in like twenty eight
- 53:52Speaker 2: to sixteen somewhere in there.
- 53:54Speaker 3: Yeah, we're not far off yeah somewhere.
- 53:56Speaker 2: My question is, if we're going to do a prediction,
- 53:58Speaker 2: how many turnovers did we have, because that you know,
- 54:03Speaker 2: just one. We we've overcome it. But eventually that luck
- 54:06Speaker 2: runs out, right, Like I.
- 54:07Speaker 1: Mean, look at the Houston game, Like that fumble that
- 54:10Speaker 1: that actually Will Campbell jumped on at the five yard line.
- 54:13Speaker 1: I mean that that was huge. You know, we punted
- 54:16Speaker 1: and got out of there, like you can't handle the
- 54:19Speaker 1: ball at the five they would have scored probably, so
- 54:22Speaker 1: you know, like yeah, yeah, so those and he lost that,
- 54:27Speaker 1: and he lost that rush up the middle one and
- 54:28Speaker 1: the other two strips he we fucking luckily jumped on.
- 54:31Speaker 3: So I mean.
- 54:36Speaker 1: Percent of the time strip sacks are fucking fumble recoveries.
- 54:38Speaker 3: You know, we got lucky in a couple. Uh you know,
- 54:43Speaker 3: I I don't know, it's hard to say they won't
- 54:47Speaker 3: turn the ball over.
- 54:49Speaker 1: But I could see the super clean game. I could
- 54:52Speaker 1: see our defense playing really well. Obviously they're you know,
- 54:56Speaker 1: they're going against him Stidham. Uh you know we're Milton
- 55:00Speaker 1: Williams is thank you for your back, buddy.
- 55:02Speaker 3: I appreciate that.
- 55:04Speaker 2: God he was he was like unblockable the other day.
- 55:08Speaker 1: I think we're relatively healthy. It's like two people on
- 55:10Speaker 1: the ange of the mac Collins is back. Don't Mac
- 55:13Speaker 1: Hollins in a game like this is you know he's
- 55:14Speaker 1: gonna have two or three big first down catches.
- 55:17Speaker 2: I think the I think the only person they've ruled
- 55:20Speaker 2: out Landry, they've ruled him out.
- 55:22Speaker 3: He's out. Okay, I mean yeah they loss.
- 55:26Speaker 2: Yeah, but like Anthony Jenny's been playing really well. You
- 55:29Speaker 2: know you have Milton Williams and Barmore. Our linebackers are
- 55:34Speaker 2: all over the place because they don't the blocks don't
- 55:37Speaker 2: get to the second level. We're eating them up like
- 55:40Speaker 2: last like last week, Like how many tackles for a
- 55:43Speaker 2: loss do we have on their running backs?
- 55:45Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 55:46Speaker 1: You know what I mean, Like we're blowing up the
- 55:48Speaker 1: line now. They do have the best offensive line in
- 55:51Speaker 1: the NFL.
- 55:52Speaker 2: So that's like, that's accurate. I've heard.
- 55:54Speaker 1: Well, I mean it it depends how you what rankings
- 55:56Speaker 1: you look at, and I don't know how the metrics
- 55:59Speaker 1: are a lot of them.
- 56:00Speaker 3: Just look at the PFF stats.
- 56:02Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not you know every day come up when
- 56:04Speaker 1: you watched Monday night football or Sunday night football. Sorry,
- 56:07Speaker 1: I'm like, well you don't really know how they come
- 56:09Speaker 1: up with this, because that's it. That's literally a Chris
- 56:11Speaker 1: collins Worth stat he came up with the well he.
- 56:16Speaker 2: Also they use it in every you know, when they
- 56:20Speaker 2: go here's the Seattle defense and everybody talks about themselves.
- 56:24Speaker 2: They have like a they have their PFF ranking in
- 56:26Speaker 2: that picture, right right?
- 56:28Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, so what I'm saying, yeah yeah, so
- 56:31Speaker 1: so yeah, so Morgan Moses was was one on.
- 56:33Speaker 2: Sunday, right, yeah, yeah, he was number one.
- 56:35Speaker 3: Yeah. So anyway, I don't know.
- 56:36Speaker 2: I think I think, honestly, I think we win the game.
- 56:41Speaker 2: I think we get to the point like the Texans, right,
- 56:45Speaker 2: like we wore them down to the point where we
- 56:47Speaker 2: had that six minute drive where we uh we we
- 56:51Speaker 2: still had to punt, but Remandre had a bug.
- 56:54Speaker 3: That was the best drive of the game. That's the
- 56:56Speaker 3: best driving the game. We didn't score a point, but
- 56:59Speaker 3: that was the drive we need get to seal the game.
- 57:01Speaker 2: Yeah, it took six minutes off the clock, like that's dominant.
- 57:04Speaker 2: And and I think it was Aikman He's like, yeah,
- 57:07Speaker 2: they they've kind of just warn them down. I think
- 57:10Speaker 2: they're just you know, they're done. Yeah, And I just
- 57:13Speaker 2: remember thinking to myself, like we punted and and that
- 57:16Speaker 2: was like a dominant, like dominant because we got the ball.
- 57:20Speaker 2: That was the game. We got the ball, remember they
- 57:23Speaker 2: they the guy kept it out of the end zone
- 57:25Speaker 2: and ended up like at the two. We started at
- 57:28Speaker 2: the two.
- 57:29Speaker 3: Yeah, and then we ended up to like our forty
- 57:31Speaker 3: five or something.
- 57:33Speaker 2: Forty eight, something like that, and then we pussed.
- 57:35Speaker 3: Like six yards of rush, six yards of rush four
- 57:37Speaker 3: yards and then and.
- 57:39Speaker 2: Then no rush. Although I did notice, you know, but
- 57:41Speaker 2: one thing I saw. It's funny, like, yeah, you're supposed
- 57:44Speaker 2: to like take your time and run down the clock.
- 57:47Speaker 2: I saw Rabel He like was yelling at the field like,
- 57:50Speaker 2: come on, come on, how are you don't just stand
- 57:53Speaker 2: around for thirty seconds right right?
- 57:55Speaker 1: Don't be afraid that it Actually Collins was saying that, like,
- 57:58Speaker 1: you know, just you know, you want to run the clock,
- 58:00Speaker 1: but you have such good tempo right now, just keep
- 58:03Speaker 1: pounding them, just keep going.
- 58:04Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 58:05Speaker 3: I still am angry about that fucking third down pass
- 58:07Speaker 3: play on the next drive though.
- 58:10Speaker 2: I was just gonna bring that up.
- 58:11Speaker 1: Yeah, that annoyed the fuck out of me because if
- 58:14Speaker 1: you just take a knee there, you bring it down
- 58:17Speaker 1: to a minute? What ten? And then you punt. You
- 58:20Speaker 1: gave him two full minutes. Granted they're down two scores.
- 58:22Speaker 1: I get it, the game's pretty much over, but like,
- 58:26Speaker 1: just don't even leave them that, Like, don't like it.
- 58:28Speaker 1: That throw there made no sense. If it's there, fine,
- 58:31Speaker 1: but it wasn't there, and he still threw it, Like,
- 58:33Speaker 1: just go down, just slide get sad, I don't care,
- 58:38Speaker 1: don't throw that ball. Like, I'm sure that pissed variable off.
- 58:42Speaker 1: It pissed me off, but it just made no sense.
- 58:44Speaker 1: But then again, that's a rookie. He's trying to make
- 58:46Speaker 1: a play. He wants to be on the field to
- 58:48Speaker 1: kneel down and win it. That's their whole mantra this year.
- 58:51Speaker 1: But he still ended up doing that anyway.
- 58:53Speaker 2: So but like I just like my thought when they
- 58:56Speaker 2: did that was I just shot And I was like,
- 58:57Speaker 2: why why why would you do that? Like, there's no
- 59:01Speaker 2: reason why you would do that. They needed a yard
- 59:04Speaker 2: and if you if you get that yard, the game's over, right,
- 59:08Speaker 2: you're in victory formation.
- 59:10Speaker 1: How about Houston punting? Oh yeah, I I I was flabbergasted.
- 59:16Speaker 1: I was actually upset they did it because I wanted
- 59:18Speaker 1: to get the ball back and just score again. I know,
- 59:20Speaker 1: it was like it was like a Madden video game mentality.
- 59:23Speaker 1: I just want to keep scoring. I think it was
- 59:26Speaker 1: just more that it was way we waved the white flag.
- 59:29Speaker 2: Yeah, they couldn't do anything on offense against us, so
- 59:32Speaker 2: it was just like, you know what, make them try
- 59:34Speaker 2: to drive the full field? Right? That was he punted.
- 59:37Speaker 2: That was the punt that gave us the ball at
- 59:38Speaker 2: the two.
- 59:40Speaker 1: Yeah, oh no, I mean yeah, look like, hey, if
- 59:42Speaker 1: they like stripsacked this and scored a touchdown, he would
- 59:44Speaker 1: have been a hero. But you don't know the ball
- 59:46Speaker 1: is going to be down at the two. You know,
- 59:48Speaker 1: you're just you're just punting to give up, you know.
- 59:51Speaker 3: And uh no, I don't think that was that punt.
- 59:56Speaker 2: You sure.
- 59:57Speaker 3: Well.
- 59:57Speaker 1: The only reason why I say that because I thought
- 59:59Speaker 1: there was like four minutes left. I thought we got
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: the ball with like.
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: Oh no at the two. Was when there was twelve
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: minutes left and we ran.
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: And we ran it right, yeah, And then there was
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: four minutes left and they punted.
- 1:00:10Speaker 3: It was just a normal punt. Yeah.
- 1:00:12Speaker 1: But yeah, I think, uh, I think this Sunday, we're
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: gonna be now now here's my here's my uh, here's
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: my conundrum. So I go to Tampa Bay on the sixth.
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: I'll be in Tampa Friday, Saturday, Sunday for the super Bowl,
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: and then Monday morning, I get on a cruise ship
- 1:00:31Speaker 1: out of Tampa. I don't know where the fuck I'm
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: gonna watch the game in Tampa. I got the owner
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: of Eva's down there. I'm sure he'll have his night,
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: but I mean, with Braiden and Nicole, I gotta get
- 1:00:44Speaker 1: up at the ass crack of dawn, which I'm used
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: to now anyway, but you know, and hop on a boat.
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: I don't want to be super hungover, and I don't
- 1:00:51Speaker 1: want to have that now, you know me.
- 1:00:53Speaker 3: I get over losses very quickly, like I'll.
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: Be pissed when they if they lose that night, I'll
- 1:00:58Speaker 1: wake up next morning going on a cruise. Let's go,
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: and my phone won't be on because I'll be out
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: in the seas. I have to listen to Angelo texting me,
- 1:01:05Speaker 1: you guys suck blah blah blah.
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: But you know, uh, you know what's going to be
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: funny When they draft Fernando Mendoz and number one, he's
- 1:01:13Speaker 2: gonna turned out. He is going to be bad. He
- 1:01:16Speaker 2: has no arm strength, like he throws from like his shoulder.
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: He just I don't see it.
- 1:01:21Speaker 3: He's he's a great quarter he's a great college quarterback.
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: Yes he is.
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: That's probably where that ends. But he's in love with him.
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: I text him the other night. Have you seen the trade?
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: The trade scenarios? Like it's like it's it's Vegas' first
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: round pick this year, first round pick next year, and
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: like this year's third round pick for Lamar Jackson. So
- 1:01:48Speaker 1: I sent it to him. I said, would you do this?
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: And He's like, fuck no, And I'm like, you're really
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: you're really risking it with Mendoza. I mean, I'm not
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: a big Jackson guy. I think he's I would. I
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: would probably not do it either, because you're giving up
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: that second first round pick. I might go one for
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: one or a one in a three two first Lamar
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: jacks how many years as you really have left? At
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: the way he plays? And he shows you that well,
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: I don't think they're trade him now anyway with a
- 1:02:14Speaker 1: new coach. But you know, he's like no, I'm like,
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: this is the next year? Is the year you want
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: to number one pick? Whether you need a quarterback or not,
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: like you could just wheel and deal it for a
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: lot or get you know, Arch Manning or somebody that
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: it's gonna be.
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: Well. The kid, How funny it was that the kid,
- 1:02:32Speaker 2: the kid from Oregon. You know what, you want to
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: play for the Jets.
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: I'm telling you what, though, the Jets are better off
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: because he sucks too. He's tiny, He's like, he's like
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: a fucking Zach Wilson. He reminds me of but black,
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: like a black Zach Wilson.
- 1:02:48Speaker 2: Like I just you know, a lot of people look
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: a lot of people look good in the Oregon offense.
- 1:02:53Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, And I mean I don't know if that's
- 1:02:55Speaker 3: why he went back, but he was. He was.
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: He was a lot of people tell him to go
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: back anyway before the Jets. That might have been the
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: last straw, and that got him to do it.
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: Absolutely, I thought, I thought right up until he said
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: he was going back, because he was, he was going
- 1:03:09Speaker 2: to go to the pros. Now, he's probably making about
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: eight million this year to go back. But there was
- 1:03:14Speaker 2: the kid that's the quarterback from Nebraska. It's like Payavier
- 1:03:18Speaker 2: or whatever, the one that everybody says he's like Mahomes
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: you know, Oh.
- 1:03:21Speaker 3: No, that's uh dlan roola la. Yeah, and he transferred
- 1:03:26Speaker 3: to Oregon. He did.
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: He could still transfer again though if he wanted to. Yeah,
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: but I mean he didn't see that coming. He didn't
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: see that coming, And that's that's huh.
- 1:03:37Speaker 2: I think. I think also, even if you city, you're there,
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: and you're there starter when Moore's gone that one year,
- 1:03:43Speaker 2: I mean, look what it did for Bonicks. Bonix is
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: our age.
- 1:03:46Speaker 3: Right, yeah, he would. He played at Auburn for like
- 1:03:48Speaker 3: nine years.
- 1:03:49Speaker 2: He played who was it. I forget who it was,
- 1:03:51Speaker 2: but someone was in high school when Bonix was playing
- 1:03:55Speaker 2: at Auburn and now they're teammates.
- 1:03:57Speaker 1: Yeah, crazy right, Yeah, but they don't explain he's like
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: the most college wins ever because he played like fucking fifteen.
- 1:04:03Speaker 3: You know, COVID had a lot to do with that too.
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: I was watching I was watching that. I was watching
- 1:04:07Speaker 2: that game, the Auburn game. It was like the Sugar
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: Bowl in the playoff. I was with Paul at his
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: apartment in South Boston and I'm like and then like
- 1:04:16Speaker 2: all of a sudden, he's playing at Oregon. I'm just like, like,
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: how is this? How like six years.
- 1:04:24Speaker 3: I know, it's crazy.
- 1:04:26Speaker 2: Well we don't. We don't even need to get into
- 1:04:27Speaker 2: college because it's a fucking trainer.
- 1:04:29Speaker 3: It's not even college anymore. It's not the same sport.
- 1:04:31Speaker 3: Do you see do you see what they announced today?
- 1:04:34Speaker 2: Did you think with twelve?
- 1:04:36Speaker 3: Yeah? But do you see the caveat they put in there?
- 1:04:40Speaker 3: You didn't see this.
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: It's if Notre Dame finishes in the top twelve ap
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: pole they get an automatic bid.
- 1:04:50Speaker 2: What's the what? What? What's the what is it about?
- 1:04:53Speaker 3: Forced them to join a fucking conference? This is bullshit?
- 1:04:57Speaker 3: And I actually Notre Dame.
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: I have my friend kid plays for them. He's gonna
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: be a softbore next year. Cornerback you.
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: But you know it drives me nuts. They're acc and
- 1:05:06Speaker 2: every sport right their basketball.
- 1:05:09Speaker 3: Is in the ages. It's all about their NBC TV contract.
- 1:05:12Speaker 3: That's why they won't leave it.
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: But like, just what I don't understand, Like I remember
- 1:05:16Speaker 2: when we were growing up, like all all the best,
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: all the best players wanted to go to Notre Dame
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: and like because it was like Notre Dame, Army, Navy,
- 1:05:24Speaker 2: like these were the schools. But like what they haven't
- 1:05:29Speaker 2: they haven't won since what Tony Rice was a quarterback
- 1:05:33Speaker 2: and Lou Holtz was a coach.
- 1:05:33Speaker 3: Well, yeah, well it's funny to say that.
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: So Cam Newton this morning on First Take when this
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: rule came out, you know, and then Cam Newton's style
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: and he's like, they haven't been relevant.
- 1:05:45Speaker 3: I can't remember last time.
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: But they were relevant, And then the fucking girl on
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: the show goes, uh, they were in the national title
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: game last year.
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: He's such a good year.
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: Like, do a little research, bro.
- 1:05:59Speaker 2: But that's the thing is, doesn't none of them do?
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: I mean, Notre Dame is like the Dallas Cowboys of
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: fucking college. They have a huge fan base. They they
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: basically have their own TV network, NBC, so every single
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: doesn't matter who they play, every single games on national
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: TV that they play.
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: Right, and like, and we're like watching them.
- 1:06:16Speaker 3: Alabama can't even say that.
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: I'm like, why am I watching? Like? Why is Notre
- 1:06:20Speaker 2: Dame versus Air Force on?
- 1:06:22Speaker 3: Right?
- 1:06:23Speaker 2: Why is that on? Yeah? And then it's it's funny
- 1:06:26Speaker 2: too because they were all crying that Notre Dame should
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: have been in.
- 1:06:29Speaker 3: They should have, they should have, but it's because of
- 1:06:32Speaker 3: those two other teams.
- 1:06:34Speaker 2: But the worst part is is fucking Alabama, who they
- 1:06:37Speaker 2: thought everybody fought, should have been out for Notre Dame.
- 1:06:39Speaker 1: One a game, Yeah in Miami, the one that there
- 1:06:41Speaker 1: was tetering with made it in the national title.
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: Game because and because Miami beat Notre Dame on the field,
- 1:06:49Speaker 2: you can't pick again.
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: This is like the this is this is the dumbest
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: thing because you know eventually it's going to be sixty
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: four fucking teams. It's like, okay, some teams just get
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: Penn State when I was kid, went undefeated and lost
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: the national championship to voters. Okay, I remember Joe Paterno
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: had the best team in the college and they lost
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: to voters.
- 1:07:11Speaker 3: Voters.
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: It was Oklahoma or whoever won that year, but like
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: or maybe it was Miami, I don't remember, but I
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: remember that they were underfeed and they lost. We're now
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: like worried about like twelve teams and I was got
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: to go to sixteen, like what are we doing?
- 1:07:27Speaker 2: The thing I think they do need.
- 1:07:28Speaker 3: I think it should still be four top four.
- 1:07:31Speaker 2: I think that. But I think the thing they do
- 1:07:33Speaker 2: need to change is like they had this year. It
- 1:07:36Speaker 2: was like automatic bids And I said it was like
- 1:07:38Speaker 2: two Lane in Memphis both got automatic bids because they
- 1:07:41Speaker 2: won their conference. Like, get that out of there. Tu
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: Lane in Memphis. Put them against each other in a
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: bowl game because like neither like they both got blown out.
- 1:07:51Speaker 2: Like who didn't see that coming?
- 1:07:52Speaker 3: Right?
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: I couldn't see that comment.
- 1:07:53Speaker 3: No, it's stupid, it's stupid.
- 1:07:57Speaker 2: But yeah, did you see the one thing, the last
- 1:08:00Speaker 2: college thing. I'll say, did you see the Friday before
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: the game press conference when some girl, some girl student
- 1:08:08Speaker 2: reporter asked Carson Beck what his hardest classes? And I
- 1:08:15Speaker 2: graduated two years ago.
- 1:08:17Speaker 3: It's no longer.
- 1:08:17Speaker 2: You're not a college You're not a college kid.
- 1:08:20Speaker 3: He's a creepy looking dude. Huh yeah, hey, he's creepy.
- 1:08:25Speaker 2: At one point that at one point when he was
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: at Georgia, there was talking him going number one overall.
- 1:08:30Speaker 2: I don't even know, like he might be a fifth round.
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: I gonna say between three and fivepending on. You know,
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: he's he's old. He's another old one. All right, let's
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: finish quick on a quick wed SOX minute. You want
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: to do that?
- 1:08:43Speaker 2: Sure?
- 1:08:43Speaker 3: All right? Uh? I got nothing. No, I don't mind that.
- 1:08:51Speaker 3: I don't mind that signing.
- 1:08:52Speaker 2: I like it. Yeah, I like it. I'm not gonna lie.
- 1:08:55Speaker 2: But here's the thing we need we need?
- 1:08:56Speaker 3: Is there other? All right?
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: We know what we've gotten. We know their last of spending.
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: They made some solid trades. They totally botched the Devi's thing,
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: like they watched the Mookie Bets thing. There's nothing left
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: from that. Bregman's gone.
- 1:09:12Speaker 3: Whatever.
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: We can sit here in bash ownership all day long
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: and and the GM. But is you read a lot
- 1:09:19Speaker 1: more about this than I do? Is there's still a move.
- 1:09:24Speaker 3: That they can make that drastically changes this offense.
- 1:09:28Speaker 2: There's a move out there. There's one. They need a
- 1:09:30Speaker 2: right handed bat. So I don't know if it's I
- 1:09:33Speaker 2: don't think it's gonna make us like jump for joy,
- 1:09:36Speaker 2: but they need a right handed bat. But the other
- 1:09:38Speaker 2: question I have to ask is they lost Beg Bregman
- 1:09:41Speaker 2: and they pivoted to Suarez. Are we gonna have a
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: four hundred million dollar rotation and like a twenty million
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: dollar fielding like like positional player roster. Like I get
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: Breslo loves pitching and that's fine, but he just signed
- 1:09:56Speaker 2: He just signed a guy who is like top five
- 1:09:59Speaker 2: in ground like force. It like pitching ground balls, and
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: we don't have a second basement. We don't have a
- 1:10:06Speaker 2: third baseman. Our first basement was a catcher op until
- 1:10:10Speaker 2: last year. And our shortstop, you know, was great, but
- 1:10:14Speaker 2: by the end of the year he couldn't even throw.
- 1:10:17Speaker 3: So I'm like, I don't know. I mean, it's a
- 1:10:20Speaker 3: great question.
- 1:10:24Speaker 2: And how the fuck does John Henry sign off on
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: five years, one thirty for a pitcher who was about
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: to turn thirty when their whole thing is is, I
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: don't want to pay pictures in their thirties, right, this
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: is what I don't know. They're all hypocrites, But like Twitter,
- 1:10:38Speaker 2: they don't want to spend, but they give Yoshida ninety
- 1:10:41Speaker 2: million dollars. They don't want to spend, but they gave
- 1:10:43Speaker 2: an injured story one hundred and forty million dollars and
- 1:10:46Speaker 2: he had to have surgery that first year.
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: And then the guy you should pay like Bregman. You know,
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: you don't like you know, I don't know like this
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: this team, you know, you and me, we love the sport,
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: we love our game, We love our team. I think
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: we'll be you know, competitive for sure. You know, like
- 1:11:03Speaker 1: you said, we still know the right handed bat what's
- 1:11:06Speaker 1: out there? Not really sure you might know more than me.
- 1:11:11Speaker 2: Not much.
- 1:11:12Speaker 3: I know, there's not much. I mean there.
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: I mean again, though we didn't get bregnant until March
- 1:11:17Speaker 1: last year. Granted he was a free agent, so maybe
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: there's you know, a trade that we don't see coming.
- 1:11:22Speaker 1: I mean, look what the Mets did this week. They
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: totally revamped their offense in seventh days, or their team
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: in seven days. I know that was wild, yeah, really wild,
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: and good for them. You know, they gotta they got
- 1:11:32Speaker 1: to keep up with the Jones.
- 1:11:33Speaker 2: You know, well, I think I think too they they
- 1:11:36Speaker 2: I think Cohen one of the things, I you know,
- 1:11:38Speaker 2: you get all the New York news, but I think
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: he just loves being the headline over the Yankees.
- 1:11:43Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, you know.
- 1:11:45Speaker 1: And the Yankees re signed Bellinger like yay, Like I
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: just think that's a waste of money, but whatever, you know,
- 1:11:52Speaker 1: and judges getting older, and obviously Stanton's like thirty six
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: will be thirty seven during the year. I think, does
- 1:11:57Speaker 1: he have how many more do you see all the
- 1:11:58Speaker 1: players that are over like thirty in that team, Like
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: they're like all there are stars?
- 1:12:02Speaker 3: Are all stars? Are you know?
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: Yeah? But like how many years does Stanton have left?
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: I know he got like a thirteen year deal, but
- 1:12:09Speaker 2: how old is you when he got that?
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: Because like this, I don't know. I'd have to look
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: it up. Probably a few years still, Yeah, yeah, right,
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: got he has gotta be. He's gotta be.
- 1:12:21Speaker 3: But he's he's he's the shell of himself. Now.
- 1:12:24Speaker 1: You know this is this will be a year that
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: Judge probably gets hurt. You know, they're you know, they're
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: you know, Garrett Cole's back, right, Uh, you know he
- 1:12:32Speaker 1: still got uh what's his name?
- 1:12:34Speaker 3: Free?
- 1:12:36Speaker 2: But here's the thing is like Garrett Coles what and.
- 1:12:38Speaker 3: He's like thirty two, thirty three, Freed's thirty two.
- 1:12:42Speaker 2: Yeah, Judge is.
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: Thirty three, Stanton's thirty seven. Uh you know Ballinger is
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: over thirty I believe, right, yeah, thirty. You know there's granted,
- 1:12:53Speaker 1: these players can play to their thirty seven thirty eight.
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: It's not like they're gonna fall off the cliff tomorrow.
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: But you know they're locked up for a really long time.
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: You know this is you know, money can buy you
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: out of some of those situations. But yeah, he don't
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: spend like they used to, so.
- 1:13:06Speaker 2: They don't spend like they used to, and to be
- 1:13:08Speaker 2: honest with you, they don't make the trades that we make. Like, like, however,
- 1:13:13Speaker 2: you like I I was so happy we got rid
- 1:13:15Speaker 2: of Devers. I know we disagree on this, but like
- 1:13:17Speaker 2: I was so happy we got rid of him. But
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: you know what, Breslo got rid of him, took back crap,
- 1:13:22Speaker 2: but got out of that contract.
- 1:13:24Speaker 3: Yeah, but we're not spending it. I mean we are
- 1:13:27Speaker 3: a little bit.
- 1:13:27Speaker 1: I mean but whatever, Like you know, then you go
- 1:13:30Speaker 1: and sign you you know, you signed Bregmant. Who what
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: was the point of having him have these opt outs?
- 1:13:35Speaker 2: Probably because they thought they thought they could keep them. Well,
- 1:13:39Speaker 2: they thought he either he wouldn't have a good year
- 1:13:41Speaker 2: or because like there was at one point.
- 1:13:43Speaker 3: So we're signing it.
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: You're signing a guy hoping he doesn't have a good
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: year so you don't have to pay him the next
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: because he it's his option, not ours, right, so if
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: he has the good year, we're fucked.
- 1:13:57Speaker 3: And that's exactly what happened.
- 1:13:59Speaker 2: But he was slumping at one point and apparently playing injured.
- 1:14:02Speaker 2: And I remember listening to like Rob Badford and all
- 1:14:04Speaker 2: those guys that're like, it's not a guarantee he opts out,
- 1:14:08Speaker 2: he might not find forty million a year out.
- 1:14:10Speaker 3: There, right right.
- 1:14:11Speaker 2: Okay, and then baseball real quick one, there's obviously going
- 1:14:15Speaker 2: to be a strike in a lockout, right. I don't
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: mind what the Dodgers do.
- 1:14:22Speaker 3: I don't care. Everyone else can do it.
- 1:14:24Speaker 2: That's what. That's why I say that.
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: There's other billionaire of owners in this league, what lots
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: of them.
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: But like we we talk about it sometimes, Bobby Benia Day, Yeah,
- 1:14:35Speaker 2: we just paid. We paid Manny.
- 1:14:39Speaker 3: Phil was on the show before just so that was
- 1:14:43Speaker 3: good luck. He came up with it.
- 1:14:45Speaker 2: But like he but that's the thing is, like he
- 1:14:47Speaker 2: did it, then we just paid Manny. Like we still
- 1:14:50Speaker 2: owe sale money. We still owe Bragman money. But like
- 1:14:53Speaker 2: you could all do it, yeah, like you could all
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: do it. They just they don't want to.
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: It's probably not a good way to run a business,
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: per se, probably, you know, because God forbid, you know,
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: something happens, the lockout lasts a long time, and like
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: you know, you know how how these contracts are laid
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: out down the road benefits the player in these lockouts
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: because they were't gonna get paid money anyway, right, you know,
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: like show Hay is only going to make a million
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: dollars this year or whatever it is, and he's gonna
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: make sixty million dollars a year when he's you know, retired.
- 1:15:29Speaker 2: So now eventually the Dodgers are gonna have one hell
- 1:15:32Speaker 2: of attacks. Oh yeah, but you know what, They've won
- 1:15:36Speaker 2: what three Super Super Bowls? Jesus three World Series? They
- 1:15:40Speaker 2: just went back to back. If they went another two,
- 1:15:43Speaker 2: I'd suck then, you know, for and pay a tax.
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: You know, they're not only gonna you're only increasing the
- 1:15:49Speaker 1: value of your franchise.
- 1:15:50Speaker 2: You know what's funny is I heard this the Blue
- 1:15:55Speaker 2: Jays have the richest owners in all of baseball.
- 1:16:00Speaker 3: Who owns them?
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: Uh it's something to do with the TV. What TV
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: station is it? Damn it, it's a TV Rodgers is
- 1:16:09Speaker 2: a Rogers?
- 1:16:09Speaker 3: Uh it might be, but they're the big cable conglomerate
- 1:16:12Speaker 3: up there.
- 1:16:13Speaker 2: Okay, then they own They owned the.
- 1:16:16Speaker 3: Blue and they owned the names on the Rogers Center, and.
- 1:16:18Speaker 2: They own they own everything. So like they the reason
- 1:16:21Speaker 2: they like went from zero to sixty in the last
- 1:16:24Speaker 2: two years is they were they Once they finally got
- 1:16:28Speaker 2: like good players, they just loaded up around them. Yeah,
- 1:16:32Speaker 2: although I think that ceased contract is gonna suck, that
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: that's not gonna be good.
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they're right there. I mean that well,
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: they lost a chet, but they gained players. I mean
- 1:16:43Speaker 1: I could I could totally see them falling back a
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: little bit this year. That was that was one of
- 1:16:47Speaker 1: those magical runs, you know. And of course they got
- 1:16:49Speaker 1: to play the Dodgers in the World Series. I think
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: it's any other team they got a really good shot
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: at winning. Yeah, you know me, I'm a I'm a
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: I love show. Hey, uh, you know if we're in
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: the World Series, is I don't want the Dodgers to win.
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: I don't really want the Dodgers to win. But I think,
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: you know, if they win again this year and let's
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: say one in the next two after that, so that's
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: four out of five. Let's say, you know, if they
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: even have.
- 1:17:12Speaker 2: It season next year, that's one hell of a run.
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: It's well, not only is that one hell of a run,
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: I hope it puts the rest of the league on notice,
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: you know, like they're gonna fight for They're gonna fight
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: for the cap or or how to circumvent these salaries.
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: And now we're not circumvent these salaries, I should say,
- 1:17:32Speaker 1: I think we're gonna lose all of next year. I
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: think this is gonna be you know, I think it's
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: gonna be devastating for the league, which is.
- 1:17:38Speaker 2: So crazy because they just had the highest rated World
- 1:17:40Speaker 2: Series they've had in like ten years, right, and they're
- 1:17:42Speaker 2: gonna just flush it down the toilet.
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: Two years ago you had the Dodgers versus the Yankees.
- 1:17:46Speaker 1: It doesn't get much better than that if you're a
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: Major League Baseball executive.
- 1:17:49Speaker 2: Yeah, because what they played like ten times in like
- 1:17:52Speaker 2: the fifties, fifties, you just crush your history like you're
- 1:17:56Speaker 2: all about it. And then you turn around and you're.
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: Like two of the biggest markets, the biggest markets, uh,
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: you know, and you know, you get you know, the
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: Red Sox are back a little bit and even in
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: city like Toronto, you know, they're only Canada's representative and
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: and you know, they drew major numbers, you know, even
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: like they.
- 1:18:16Speaker 2: Even like like you're looking at it, the race, the
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: Tampa Bay Race, they're gonna be they're moving into like
- 1:18:23Speaker 2: a one billion dollars stadium coming up so and they
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: sold so like they they sold for like two point
- 1:18:29Speaker 2: one billion dollars, Like they're not going to be They're
- 1:18:32Speaker 2: not gonna be doormats for long, you know.
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: And they weren't even they weren't even doormats for a while,
- 1:18:37Speaker 1: you know, they were just but.
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: Like they're not gonna have They're not gonna be able to.
- 1:18:40Speaker 3: Spend yea spend.
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: The Oakland Athletics going to Vegas I heard of. I've
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: read some stuff though that that stadium is not coming along, but.
- 1:18:51Speaker 2: They might spend another year.
- 1:18:53Speaker 3: Yeah, they're way behind budget, They're way behind time. I
- 1:18:56Speaker 3: just read a whole article about the other day. It's
- 1:18:58Speaker 3: not looking good for that, but.
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: It'll come around eventually. They'll get it done, you know,
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: fucking probably use taxpayers money.
- 1:19:04Speaker 3: But uh, the only that worries me about that and
- 1:19:06Speaker 3: the Raiders is as Vegas.
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: As dying right now. It's really not a good place
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: to go. They're they're down, they are below COVID numbers
- 1:19:13Speaker 1: right now.
- 1:19:14Speaker 2: I saw that.
- 1:19:15Speaker 3: That is fucking insane.
- 1:19:17Speaker 2: I saw it. I saw that, and it's.
- 1:19:19Speaker 1: Stop charging fucking seventy five dollars for a fucking four
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: ounce fil a twenty dollars for a fucking high noon
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: Like it's.
- 1:19:27Speaker 2: Just also like gen Z apparently like alcoholics.
- 1:19:31Speaker 3: They don't like it.
- 1:19:32Speaker 2: They're like they lost eight hundred and forty million dollars
- 1:19:35Speaker 2: last year because gen Z doesn't drink.
- 1:19:36Speaker 3: They don't drink.
- 1:19:38Speaker 1: I'm glad I got out of the bar business. I'm
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: not gonna lie glad I switched outs. I mean, war
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: is always going to be around.
- 1:19:47Speaker 2: You don't have to worry about that.
- 1:19:49Speaker 1: About that fucking lucky marble stock almost cross six hundred
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: dollars today, I'm like.
- 1:19:53Speaker 2: Jeez, that's uh, that's a growing industry.
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: Unfortunately, especially when Trump leaves office in two years, you
- 1:20:00Speaker 1: know he'll fucking we'll go back to war with fucking everybody.
- 1:20:04Speaker 3: All right, we hit our one twenty mark. I think
- 1:20:06Speaker 3: that's about what our average is, right, I.
- 1:20:08Speaker 2: Think it is. It's funny because, like I always joke
- 1:20:10Speaker 2: with Liz, maybe tonight we'll only do an hour, but
- 1:20:13Speaker 2: it's like we can't. It's like him possible too.
- 1:20:16Speaker 3: I know.
- 1:20:18Speaker 1: All right, man, Well we did a little dual podcast
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: Dadri Goodog drive home.
- 1:20:23Speaker 3: We're probably going to be wrong.
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: It's probably going to be like a seven to six
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: final Patriots, though, I think we'll be right.
- 1:20:29Speaker 3: About the who's the victor?
- 1:20:31Speaker 1: So we're both predicting a Patriots Seattle Super Bowl. I
- 1:20:34Speaker 1: think I think either one would be great real quick.
- 1:20:38Speaker 2: Herbert and C. J. Stroud both said after the game
- 1:20:42Speaker 2: that they couldn't even figure out.
- 1:20:43Speaker 3: Who we were in and so was going to figure
- 1:20:46Speaker 3: it out. Yeah.
- 1:20:47Speaker 2: Also, one thing we didn't cover, I have to stephen A.
- 1:20:49Speaker 2: Smith went on and ran about the Patriots this year,
- 1:20:52Speaker 2: and he talked about I forget Williams, our defensive coordinator
- 1:20:59Speaker 2: that's fighting, can't Yeah, he said, how great he's been
- 1:21:02Speaker 2: all year.
- 1:21:03Speaker 3: Oh god, that's like the Hunter Henry line from a
- 1:21:05Speaker 3: few years ago.
- 1:21:07Speaker 2: Like he's like, yeah, he's been doing such a great.
- 1:21:09Speaker 3: Job, like from his hospital bed.
- 1:21:11Speaker 2: Yeah, like he's fighting for his life, Like what do
- 1:21:13Speaker 2: you what do you mean?
- 1:21:14Speaker 3: He's such a again.
- 1:21:16Speaker 2: But again, like you said, you don't have to do
- 1:21:18Speaker 2: research on those shows, you just have to yell and
- 1:21:20Speaker 2: say dumb ship.
- 1:21:20Speaker 3: Yep, that's it anyway, all right show? Yeah?
