  Speaker 2: Altitude Sports Radio loves football.
• 2:03
  Speaker 6: Nelly missed his buttons over the weekend, didn't he? Oh,
• 2:07
  Speaker 6: what a weekend it was. NFL, college football, and finally
• 2:13
  Speaker 6: today we get the opener to the Broncos season in
• 2:17
  Speaker 6: an effort to repeat The success that they had last
• 2:22
  Speaker 6: year and trying to get back to fighting for another
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: Super Bowl appearance. Now, we'll get to the previewing of
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: the game in a bit. We've kind of been doing
• 2:30
  Speaker 6: that for months anyway, so let's talk about some things
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: that actually happened and things that I think that matter.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: And here's the main one.
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: Whenever you're at this point in the calendar, you're projecting
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: who's going to be good, who's going to be bad,
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: where is this team going to.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Fall, X, Y, Z.
• 2:51
  Speaker 6: And there's always a narrative that comes out of an offseason.
• 2:56
  Speaker 6: As you head into a brand new year, after you've
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: seen training camp, you've seen the preseason, you've seen everything
• 3:01
  Speaker 6: come together, new rosters, what have you. And that narrative
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: becomes an overarching story of, you know, Crackman does a
• 3:14
  Speaker 6: really good job of spotting these.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: He has the.
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: I can't believe how everybody's talking about how nobody's talking
• 3:21
  Speaker 6: about the Denver Broncos. Like that whole thing comes from
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: every TV show that you watch last year anyway. How
• 3:29
  Speaker 6: come nobody's talking about the Broncos, which means everybody's talking
• 3:32
  Speaker 6: about it? There's one thing that I think defined this
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: offseason as far as offseason story that we were looking,
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: a lot of people were looking at to become truth
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: once the season starts.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: And it was....
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: This is the Chargers year. And the Chargers go out
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: yesterday at home. Brand new offense with Mike McDaniel in charge.
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: And got stomped by Arizona. Herbert finished that game with
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: 209 yards. One touchdown, one pick was sacked three times.
• 4:16
  Speaker 6: Omari and Hampton, a darling of everybody in the offseason,
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: for this guy's going to become a top five back
• 4:21
  Speaker 6: in the league or something like that. Omari and Hampton
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: finished with 43 yards at 3.6 yards per carry. And
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: the team just looked completely out of sorts. Now, it's
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: week one, okay? But when you have a team like
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: the Chargers.
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: That you kind of figure is going to be in
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: the mix for both the division and conference play later
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: in the year.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: It's a big one.
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: That's a big game early in this season. Long NFL season.
• 4:58
  Speaker 6: Teams can bounce back. But there were like some results
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: of this first week that made you go, hmm.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Niners-Rams on Thursday. That was a weird one.
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: And we can blame it on Australia and the travel
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: and all that different stuff. Bottom line is, a season
• 5:17
  Speaker 6: where I think the two teams that got the most
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: attention in their respective conference heading into this year was
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: the LA Rams and the Los Angeles Chargers. The Rams,
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: for a pretty obvious reason, they were knocking on the
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: door last year for a Super Bowl. They go out,
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: they make the trade for Miles Garrett and Trent McDuffie,
• 5:37
  Speaker 6: and they bring Aaron Donald back, and there's so much
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: of this huge and grand news to lose by 20
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: in the first game and then immediately put Miles.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Garrett on IR.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Take that L on the way out.
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: Then on the AFC side of things, it felt like
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: nobody trusted who was playing in the AFC championship game
• 5:59
  Speaker 6: last year, and that's based off of who people thought,
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: for the most part, Again, we're talking in generalities here.
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: For the most part, people looked at the AFC championship
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: game and I think thought it was a fluke last year.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: Here's why.
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: I don't see many people picking the Patriots and picking
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: the Broncos to return. I see a lot of people picking, hey,
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: maybe the Chiefs are on their way back this year. Hey,
• 6:29
  Speaker 6: maybe it's the Ravens year. I think Josh Allen finally
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: gets it done. And then the biggest one was, Harbaugh, Herbert,
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: Mike McDaniel, they're going to do it this year.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: It's finally time.
• 6:42
  Speaker 6: And for them to lay an egg in the first
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: week at home is just a pretty wild result. And
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: you've had a few of those within those games yesterday.
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: Also something I want to spend more time on. I
• 7:00
  Speaker 6: don't know if you guys saw what took place in
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: the New Orleans and Detroit game yesterday. What is a
• 7:06
  Speaker 6: very obvious and clear sack fumble that was returned for
• 7:10
  Speaker 6: a touchdown was called back.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: And Nelly, do me a favor.
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: See if you can dig up, as we're talking about this,
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: Mike Pereira's explanation for why. If you guys missed this,
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: Detroit had the ball. Saints, Chase Young catches the edge.
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: And it's one of those blindside hits on the quarterback.
• 7:33
  Speaker 6: He's bringing the ball back to throw. He hits Goff.
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: Ball goes out of 15 yards backwards and to the right.
• 7:43
  Speaker 6: Saints pick it up, scoop and score, and they go
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: to review. And I think everybody's kind of looking at it,
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: thinking to themselves, like, what are we reviewing here? And
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: they come back and they say, Something along the lines
• 7:57
  Speaker 6: of quarterback was in the throwing motion, it's an incomplete pass.
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: Everyone's confused. But here was Mike Pereira's explanation of why.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he had started his throwing motion. Now, throwing motion
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: is bringing the ball up. Forget about the hand at
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: this point going forward. Throwing motion starts hand going up,
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: then is hit. Ball comes loose. His intent was.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: To throw it forward.
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: And since that motion had already started, that's going to
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: be a forward pass no matter where it lands.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: What?
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: This is one of those, the NFL is great at
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: doing the, you might have thought you knew what you
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: were watching for, you know, 60 years of football. But
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: this feels like secret clock that only the Big Ten
• 8:48
  Speaker 6: has stuff. What do you mean the intention was to
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: throw it forward? Well, the intention was not to throw
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: an interception. The intention was not to fumble. The intention
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: was not to have a negative yardage play. The hell
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: does that even mean? And here's the problem. And Nelly,
• 9:13
  Speaker 6: mark my words. How is every quarterback in the league,
• 9:17
  Speaker 6: when they get hit and they fumble... Not going to
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: go to, what do you mean? I was bringing my
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: arm back to throw and my intention was to throw
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: it forward. Imagine this in the AFC championship game. I
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: don't know what you guys are talking about. When I
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: threw it from my chest, my intention was for the
• 9:44
  Speaker 6: ball to go forward. I don't think you can trust
• 9:48
  Speaker 6: anything anymore. What the NFL should do is get out
• 9:51
  Speaker 6: ahead of this right now before this becomes a real problem,
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: which is every time that somebody goes out and makes
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: a hit on the quarterback, the a fumble, you aren't
• 10:02
  Speaker 6: going to shout about what Mike Pereira said in week one.
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: They should release some statement right now being like, you
• 10:14
  Speaker 6: know what, guys? We got it wrong. That's all they
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: need to say. It's not going to make the Saints
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: feel any better about that. But at least, at least,
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: you can get out in front and say, well, you
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: know what?
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: We botched it. Our bad.
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: What you need to start doing is, everybody who's listening
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: and you too, Kane, is you need to start using this.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Logic in your everyday life.
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: Like, I don't even want to put this evil on you,
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: but suppose you forget Your wife's birthday?
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: You go, well, you see, my intention was to remember
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: your birthday and take you to a nice dinner. So
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: no matter what happens, I was in the right because
• 10:54
  Speaker 5: I intended to take you.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: It's the intent that matters. I actually say this all
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: the time.
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: I don't like how we punish people based off of
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: results instead of intention.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: I think the intention is the thing that should matter most.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: But....
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: In this, I'm just telling you, this is going to
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: become a gigantic problem unless the NFL says we screwed up.
• 11:19
  Speaker 6: If they do that, then there's no issue. The Saints
• 11:23
  Speaker 6: will be mad. Saints fans will be mad. People will
• 11:26
  Speaker 6: make fun of the NFL for getting that wrong, but
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: at least they won't have a problem moving forward.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: The issue with them is.
• 11:36
  Speaker 6: If you move forward with this, All right, Nelly, what
• 11:39
  Speaker 6: happens tonight? Nick Benito comes off the corner on a
• 11:42
  Speaker 6: undrafted rookie free agent left tackle in, forgetting his name now,
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: doesn't matter.
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: He comes off the edge. He hits Mahomes blindside.
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: It's when Mahomes has his arm back here, hand not
• 11:56
  Speaker 6: moving forward, but arms back.
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: His intention is to throw the football.
• 12:02
  Speaker 6: Benito hits him before the hand moves forward, ball squirts out,
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: Broncos scoop and score.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: What's the call?
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: The fact that nobody can give me a straight answer
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: now is a big problem. And I find this every
• 12:20
  Speaker 6: bit as egregious as what happened in the Michigan-Western Michigan game,
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: which everybody watched it, clocks hit zero, game was over,
• 12:29
  Speaker 6: and they said, uh-uh-uh, there's actually a super secret thing
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: you don't know about And you're just like, this reeks
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: of some sort of foul play. Now, calls early in
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: the game. It wasn't like there was three seconds left
• 12:53
  Speaker 6: on the clock or anything like that.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: But a touchdown, it's a gigantic play. It's huge.
• 13:01
  Speaker 6: And look, I'm saying this as... as I think you
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: guys well know, somebody who was rooting for Detroit. And
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: very clearly, that call was wrong. In fact, Dan Campbell
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: said it after the game. He was like, yeah, I
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: didn't know that rule existed. We were kind of all
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: on the sideline just waiting to take the field again
• 13:20
  Speaker 6: after the kickoff. But I see that as being a
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: huge problem unless the NFL gets ahead of this like now, now.
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: Isn't the NFL so good at using language that kind
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: of confuses you and muddies the waters? Well, you see,
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: it actually was a fumble because the receiver made a
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: football move and turned up field, so he did possess
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: the ball.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: What is a football move? Yeah, the whole football move.
• 13:46
  Speaker 6: I think I understand the football move thing, but it is,
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: they use that sort of, it's coded language, and I
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: mean coded in a way of, there's some variability.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: In the words you can use there.
• 14:05
  Speaker 6: But goodness. So a lot more from the NFL weekend
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: that we have to get to. Main thing for me, though,
• 14:09
  Speaker 6: is the Chargers lose to the Cardinals in the first
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: game of the year after being touted as the AFC darling.
• 14:18
  Speaker 6: And a call that was made in the Detroit-New Orleans
• 14:22
  Speaker 6: game has now, I think, muddied the waters and clouded
• 14:27
  Speaker 6: anything that resembles what you think you know about sack
• 14:31
  Speaker 6: fumbles anymore. So two pretty major things that went down
• 14:38
  Speaker 6: in week one with a whole bunch of other stuff
• 14:39
  Speaker 6: that we get to in a bit. Broncos and Chiefs tonight,
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: Monday Night Football. And we'll go back to it, but
• 14:51
  Speaker 6: it's what you feel the Chiefs are and what they're
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: going to be this season. Was last year a fluke
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: or was last year an indicator of what the chiefs
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: may be moving forward. We'll get to all that in
• 15:07
  Speaker 6: a few minutes, game one for the Broncos tonight. And
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: it's on Monday night football. I have felt this for
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: a couple of years and it's hard. Cause I feel
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: like I have a bias in this too, because it's,
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: it's something I thought I was saying, but I'll just
• 15:30
  Speaker 6: tell you straight up. And I want to get the
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: college football in a bit because, uh, Couple things in
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: college football over the weekend. Pretty incredible, including that Texas comeback.
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: So we'll get.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: There in a second. But as far as the game tonight,
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: I've had this feeling of.
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: The Chiefs and perception versus what I think is reality
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: with them. And I think when you're as good as
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: what the Chiefs have been over the course of a decade,
• 15:59
  Speaker 6: you have earned the benefit of the doubt for people to.
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: C, you fail before they expect you to. And fail
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: is a relative term. Failure for the Raiders is different
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: than failure for, you know, the Broncos this year. But
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: the way I'd put this is, two years ago, two,
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: I'm watching the Chiefs, and Every time I.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: Would watch them play, I'm like.
• 16:37
  Speaker 6: It doesn't feel like they're the same team. They're a
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: team of, you play good defense, but gosh, you have
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: this offense that is just high gear, put the fear
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: of God into defense, throwing up 35 points a night.
• 16:57
  Speaker 6: They can have eight different dudes score. whole bunch of playmakers.
• 17:03
  Speaker 6: And I'm watching and I'm going, that doesn't look like that.
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: Doesn't look right. And then the year went on and
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: the Chiefs were like 4-0. And I'm like, yeah, they
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: just squeaking out these wins though, especially against bad teams.
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: Can't really run the football. That can't last. And then
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: it kept going.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: And then they were 8-0. And 9-0. And 12-1.
• 17:32
  Speaker 6: And 14-1.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: And I'm just.
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: All of it was... I couldn't really say anything out
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: loud because I'm like, they're winning. They're winning games because
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: they're the Chiefs. And I guess that's just what the
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: Chiefs do. But I saw a shift in how they
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: were winning. The years of Patrick Mahomes throwing 50 touchdowns
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: and 5,000 yards.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: seemed, at least at that time, to be done.
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: But they had a good enough defense and they were
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: good enough in the clutch that it all kind of
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: kept together. And I, as Moj in podcasts of this
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: show is my witness, I said the sustainability of winning
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: that many one-score games is just incredibly hard to do, yes,
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: in one season, which they overcame, but especially in back-to-back years.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: In the following year, all of that stuff flipped. And
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: the problem.
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: That I have when I say stuff like this out
• 18:29
  Speaker 6: loud is I'm met with sort of the same sort
• 18:31
  Speaker 6: of refrain.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Of, well, Mahomes is healthy now and he'll figure it out.
• 18:39
  Speaker 6: And I have to remind people that Mahomes played in
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: 14 games last year and the Chiefs were not a
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: playoff team. And I can't shake this feeling that I
• 18:46
  Speaker 6: just think the Chiefs are now.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: A team that's just.
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: A good team, middle of the road like a bunch
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: of other ones. And I don't have this gigantic sort
• 19:01
  Speaker 6: of fear is probably the wrong word, but this sense
• 19:09
  Speaker 6: of impending doom like I used to. And I just
• 19:14
  Speaker 6: think the Chiefs have lost in a lot of areas
• 19:16
  Speaker 6: and they haven't been able to bring it back. Even
• 19:21
  Speaker 6: when they lost Tyreek Hill, they continued to win, but
• 19:23
  Speaker 6: they continued to win because Tyreek Hill was secondary to
• 19:26
  Speaker 6: the main thrust of the offense, which was Travis Kelsey.
• 19:30
  Speaker 6: And as Travis Kelsey has aged, it feels like the
• 19:33
  Speaker 6: Chiefs offense has aged. And I say all that to
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: tell you, tonight, I expect the Broncos to win. I
• 19:42
  Speaker 6: think the Broncos are a better football team. You look
• 19:47
  Speaker 6: almost everywhere on the field, I think the Broncos are better.
• 19:51
  Speaker 6: They have the better playmakers on offense. Cortland Sutton and
• 19:56
  Speaker 6: Jalen Waddle is miles better than their one-two punch in
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: Kansas City at wide receiver. I think the Broncos running
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: game is better. I don't care about Kenneth Walker. I
• 20:07
  Speaker 6: still think that J.K. Dobbins, when he's healthy, is as
• 20:10
  Speaker 6: good as most other running backs in the league. He
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: might not be top, top, top tier, like Bijon, Jameer Gibbs, Saquon,
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: Derrick Henry level, but I think as good as pretty
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: much everybody else, the tier below that.
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: When healthy.
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: Quarterback, you can throw it to Mahomes, sure, but I
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: think you got the Much better offensive line. Chiefs have
• 20:35
  Speaker 6: lost a lot in that area over the last couple
• 20:37
  Speaker 6: of years. And I think on defense, you're better. They're
• 20:41
  Speaker 6: the better football team. And so now the discussion becomes,
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: is Patrick Mahomes and his stature above Bo Nix enough
• 20:53
  Speaker 6: to overcome everything else?
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: And I think the answer is no. I don't think
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: it is.
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: And I think it was part of the problem last
• 20:59
  Speaker 6: year with the Chiefs is that is Mahomes still a
• 21:02
  Speaker 6: great quarterback?
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: Of course he is.
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: But I think they've lost more than people are willing
• 21:07
  Speaker 6: to admit. I mean, you go back to last year
• 21:13
  Speaker 6: and statistically what they did last season.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: They had.
• 21:19
  Speaker 6: Kareem Hunt who ran for 611 yards and 3.6 yards
• 21:22
  Speaker 6: per carry.
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: They didn't have a rushing game.
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: They go out and get Kenneth Walker to fix that,
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: but they didn't fix the problems on their offensive line.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: As far as their receivers....
• 21:34
  Speaker 6: Go look at who they have this year. Rasheed Rice,
• 21:37
  Speaker 6: is he okay? Yeah, I guess he's okay. Xavier Worthy,
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: who they drafted in the first round, he's a guy
• 21:44
  Speaker 6: who's got speed.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: And I don't think a lot else.
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: I mean, their number two wide receiver had 42 catches
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: last year. Their number three wide receiver had 19 catches
• 21:59
  Speaker 6: last year. They didn't do anything to improve. They trade
• 22:04
  Speaker 6: away their best corner, ship him off to Los Angeles,
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: and they bring back LeJarius Sneed, who, yes, when healthy
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: is a pretty damn good corner. He's played 12 games
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: the last two years. I just think a lot of
• 22:18
  Speaker 6: the problems that they have, they didn't address well enough,
• 22:23
  Speaker 6: and you compare that to a team from last year
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: in the Broncos, who returned virtually everybody from a roster
• 22:29
  Speaker 6: that got to an AFC championship game and was... this
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: close to making it to the Super Bowl. I just
• 22:40
  Speaker 6: don't think the Chiefs were talking about the same kind
• 22:45
  Speaker 6: of animal anymore. Can they get there? Yeah, I think
• 22:50
  Speaker 6: they can because they still have talented players on that
• 22:54
  Speaker 6: team and they have Patrick Mahomes and that's always somewhat
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: of an equalizer. But I think it's a long road
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: ahead So it all starts tonight. First game of the
• 23:08
  Speaker 6: Broncos season, Monday Night Football. Do want to get some
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: college football here. And here's a couple of realizations that
• 23:17
  Speaker 6: I had in watching the games on Saturday. First of all,
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: that whole thing about you really don't know what teams
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: are going to be in college football anymore. That is
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: entirely true. Because who could have guessed Oklahoma State, who
• 23:42
  Speaker 6: won a single football game last year, won.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: You go back to last year, they.
• 23:51
  Speaker 6: Won their opening game against UT Martin 27-7. From there
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: on out, they lost every football game that was on
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: their schedule.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: 11 straight.
• 24:02
  Speaker 6: They take that into this year. They lose 24-10 in
• 24:06
  Speaker 6: the opener to Tulsa. That's 12 straight losses. They played
• 24:10
  Speaker 6: Oregon last year. The final score of that game was 69-3.
• 24:16
  Speaker 6: And this year, Oregon, who struggled the first week against
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: Boise State, now goes on the road and loses to
• 24:24
  Speaker 6: Oklahoma State 39-31.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: We have no idea. what football teams are going to
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: be year over year.
• 24:32
  Speaker 6: Because if I can't trust Oregon who returned Dante Moore,
• 24:35
  Speaker 6: who seemed like he was going to be perhaps the
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: number two overall draft pick if he left last year,
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: if nothing, he was a first-round quarterback. If that team
• 24:46
  Speaker 6: returning that guy can't beat Oklahoma State, then we don't
• 24:50
  Speaker 6: know anything about college football.
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: Nothing.
• 24:53
  Speaker 6: You can have a vague idea. You can have an inkling.
• 24:57
  Speaker 6: You have no true sense of what teams are week in,
• 25:01
  Speaker 6: week out.
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: And the other part.
• 25:04
  Speaker 6: Of college football as a whole over the weekend, when
• 25:12
  Speaker 6: you got the result.
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: Of Texas.
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: Coming back after being down huge, To Ohio State.
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: 23-3.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: There was.
• 25:27
  Speaker 6: I mean it was 23-3 heading into the fourth quarter.
• 25:34
  Speaker 6: And three straight touchdowns later. Including one with 25 seconds
• 25:37
  Speaker 6: left on the clock. Gives Texas the 24-23 win. Here's
• 25:45
  Speaker 6: what that game told me. Is that a brutal loss
• 25:48
  Speaker 6: for Ohio State?
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: But this is. a little bit like the NFL now.
• 25:58
  Speaker 6: In the same way the Chargers lost week one and
• 26:01
  Speaker 6: the Cowboys lost week one and the Rams lost week one.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: All these different teams from yesterday didn't matter. Didn't matter.
• 26:13
  Speaker 6: There's a long season. College football is the same way.
• 26:16
  Speaker 6: You have one job. Get yourself in the dance. As
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: long as you do that, you're in good shape. And
• 26:22
  Speaker 6: Ohio State, as brutal as that loss is, I think
• 26:27
  Speaker 6: this is, if you can trust your team to make
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: up for it later in the year, and Ohio State's
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: certainly one that is that, I think these games are
• 26:36
  Speaker 6: such a benefit to not just college football as a whole,
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: I think your football team.
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: So you got a loss on the board. Big deal.
• 26:44
  Speaker 6: You don't think Ohio State learns from this for later
• 26:46
  Speaker 6: in the season against really good opponents? And they're going
• 26:50
  Speaker 6: to go out, they're going to win enough games.
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: To be in the college football playoff anyway. I mean,
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: think about it.
• 26:59
  Speaker 6: Ohio State, you think that the committee is going to
• 27:02
  Speaker 6: look at this as like a loss at the end
• 27:04
  Speaker 6: of the year? If they're talking about Ohio State and
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: any other two-loss team in college football, who do you
• 27:11
  Speaker 6: think gets the benefit of the doubt? There's no question
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: it's Ohio State, and it should be, by the way.
• 27:20
  Speaker 6: Now they can use a game in which they were
• 27:22
  Speaker 6: terrible in the fourth quarter, allow to come back against
• 27:25
  Speaker 6: a really good football team, learn from that and move forward.
• 27:28
  Speaker 6: It's just college football is sort of like the NFL season.
• 27:32
  Speaker 6: You can afford to lose a game early. It doesn't
• 27:37
  Speaker 6: feel good, but it doesn't wreck you like it did
• 27:40
  Speaker 6: 20 years ago in the BCS era.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: You lost a game in week two. That might have
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: been your one shot at a title. Poof, gone. Could
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: have been.
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: I mean, and the other, I mean, shocking result. We
• 27:59
  Speaker 6: all had our fun. We all poked and prodded at
• 28:07
  Speaker 6: the Big Ten and at college football as a whole.
• 28:12
  Speaker 6: Throwing a second back on the clock for Michigan. Fraudulent
• 28:16
  Speaker 6: 1-0 record. Nobody buys it, all this different stuff.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: For Michigan....
• 28:23
  Speaker 6: To go out the following week after being basically humiliated
• 28:26
  Speaker 6: for a week straight. It was like some sort of
• 28:30
  Speaker 6: college fraternity hazing ritual that Michigan was put through for
• 28:36
  Speaker 6: the last week. Of you won the game, but you
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: guys suck and we all hate you. They go out
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: the following week to play number 11, Oklahoma and beat
• 28:50
  Speaker 6: them 17 to 10.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Now there is a problem. I think one.
• 28:56
  Speaker 6: Thing's been established through two weeks, and it's only been
• 28:59
  Speaker 6: two weeks, but through two weeks, I think we can
• 29:01
  Speaker 6: say this. Michigan's defense is so good that they will
• 29:08
  Speaker 6: be in virtually every game. And Michigan's offense is so bad,
• 29:15
  Speaker 6: they have the ability to lose just about every game.
• 29:19
  Speaker 6: They won that game 17-10, and Bryce Underwood, they only
• 29:21
  Speaker 6: trust him to throw the ball 17 times. He finished
• 29:25
  Speaker 6: with 111 yards. That is not something that is sustainable
• 29:30
  Speaker 6: over 12 weeks. And we saw that in week one
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: against Western Michigan. And if Oklahoma could do anything on
• 29:37
  Speaker 6: the offensive side, you would have saw it in week two.
• 29:41
  Speaker 6: But now Kyle Whittingham has a problem. He's already kind
• 29:44
  Speaker 6: of called out Bryce Underwood and said he's the starting
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: quarterback for now. And this is going to feel, I think,
• 29:51
  Speaker 6: if Michigan keeps winning very Tebow-y in the Broncos era...
• 29:56
  Speaker 6: It's like, I'm watching this, I know this is bad,
• 29:59
  Speaker 6: and I know that we probably need to do something different,
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: but if we keep winning, now what? It has all
• 30:08
  Speaker 6: the trends and all the makings of that. Because Michigan
• 30:13
  Speaker 6: can play some defense. They held Oklahoma to 3.4 yards
• 30:17
  Speaker 6: per carry. They gave up maybe one big play the
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: entire game, and that was a throw to Rocky Beers,
• 30:25
  Speaker 6: of all people. But that offense, yuck. And they don't
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: trust Bryce Underwood to throw the football at all.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: So, 303-504-0925.

  Speaker 6: I also listened this Saturday, so from 9 to, is
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: it 9 to 1, right?
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: 9 to 1? Yeah, the Altitude Saturdays.
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: I caught the little, the handoff, taking my daughter to
• 32:44
  Speaker 6: get some donuts. Heard Springer in the morning, along with
• 32:47
  Speaker 6: Dan Tanner a little bit later in the day, so
• 32:49
  Speaker 6: you can tune in for that local stuff from 9
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: to 1 every single Saturday. So, a whole bunch of
• 32:56
  Speaker 6: stuff that we got for you.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: Now, I'll tell you this.
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: In watching all these games, and I've told you, it's
• 33:06
  Speaker 6: my favorite day of the year. The first Sunday of
• 33:10
  Speaker 6: the NFL season is my sports Christmas. It's I turn
• 33:14
  Speaker 6: on the TVs, wait for the Broncos game, turn on
• 33:19
  Speaker 6: Red Zone, do whatever. But that Red Zone at 11 a.m.
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: Hits.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: Look, I've never been on hardcore drugs before.
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: I would assume the euphoric nature that I feel watching
• 33:32
  Speaker 6: that Red Zone go. Is just like, you know, I'm
• 33:37
  Speaker 6: re-watching Breaking Bad right now.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: I've seen the way those guys react. That is my
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: blue meth.
• 33:43
  Speaker 6: Okay?
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: That's what it is. That's for me.
• 33:47
  Speaker 6: It's cooked up by Walter White himself. And mainlined for
• 33:53
  Speaker 6: an entire day. And in watching, there was a few
• 33:57
  Speaker 6: things that stood out. Here's the first one.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: Scott Hansen.
• 34:04
  Speaker 6: Opens up his octobox or whatever he calls it. And
• 34:09
  Speaker 6: about two seconds in, I hear this. Deshaun Watson has
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: turned the ball over. I think, ah, that's a great
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: start for him. And then they cut back to the
• 34:17
  Speaker 6: Browns game again. And it's the Jags scoring a touchdown.
• 34:21
  Speaker 6: Cut back again. Oh, here's Deshaun Watson fumbling. Cut back
• 34:26
  Speaker 6: to that game.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: Jags score. Cut back to that game.
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: Here's Deshaun Watson almost throwing another interception in the first quarter.
• 34:33
  Speaker 6: And all I can think to myself is, what are
• 34:36
  Speaker 6: you guys doing?
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: What's the point?
• 34:42
  Speaker 6: The Cleveland Browns, and I say this with love to
• 34:48
  Speaker 6: all of those Browns fans out there, Because I am
• 34:51
  Speaker 6: also a fan of a team that is incredibly stupid.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: Okay?
• 34:55
  Speaker 6: I know what that life is like. I have Browns friends.
• 35:01
  Speaker 6: We confide in each other about how stupid our football
• 35:04
  Speaker 6: teams are. I can't think of literally in my life
• 35:10
  Speaker 6: a worse time for the Browns. I watched them go 0-16.
• 35:12
  Speaker 6: This isn't that bad.
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: Actively.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: Actively.
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: Making the decision to start a player who is horrible
• 35:21
  Speaker 6: at football, who the fan base hates, and if you
• 35:25
  Speaker 6: watched any of that Browns and Jags game, his own
• 35:28
  Speaker 6: teammates can't stand either. You know what that was, Nelly,
• 35:31
  Speaker 6: which is hard to do in week one? That was
• 35:33
  Speaker 6: an uninspired football team that didn't believe in their quarterback.
• 35:38
  Speaker 6: The first snap of the season, you could tell.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: The very first one. And there's no coming back from that.
• 35:44
  Speaker 6: And if they had any balls, they'd make the decision
• 35:47
  Speaker 6: right now, we're not doing this again.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson, you can sit and park.
• 35:52
  Speaker 6: Your $ 230 million ass on the bench for all I care.
• 35:58
  Speaker 6: You do the same thing that Minnesota did with J.J. McCarthy, which,
• 36:01
  Speaker 6: by the way, I want to get to Minnesota in
• 36:03
  Speaker 6: a second. That's a team that has balls. Yeah, we
• 36:07
  Speaker 6: messed up. We let go of a quarterback that won
• 36:10
  Speaker 6: 14 games for us. He went on to win the
• 36:11
  Speaker 6: Super Bowl the following year for a different team. And
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: we went with a first-round guy that can't play. So
• 36:17
  Speaker 6: what did they say? We're going to park J.J. McCarthy
• 36:22
  Speaker 6: as the inactive third-string quarterback. And when Kevin O'Connell was asked, well,
• 36:26
  Speaker 6: why would you do that? Do you remember what his
• 36:29
  Speaker 6: response was? Because it gives us the best chance to win.
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: And how quickly did that come into play, Nelly? About
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: One drive.
• 36:41
  Speaker 6: Kyler Murray runs out to the right, gets his head
• 36:43
  Speaker 6: knocked off, concussed, clearly. And in comes Carson Wentz, who
• 36:48
  Speaker 6: goes on to throw three touchdowns, and they beat the
• 36:51
  Speaker 6: Packers by 17.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: In the opening game.
• 36:55
  Speaker 6: After, by the way, trailing 22 to, what, 22 to
• 36:58
  Speaker 6: 17 or something like that?
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: 22 to 10?
• 37:01
  Speaker 6: Because that's what a smart organization does. It says, hey,
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: I know we messed up. We're just going to have
• 37:14
  Speaker 6: to eat it. There's no more trying to prove anything.
• 37:19
  Speaker 6: And I don't care how bad Shador or Dylan Gabriel
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: or who's the other guy, Talon Green or whatever his
• 37:25
  Speaker 6: name is. I don't care about the other guys on there.
• 37:32
  Speaker 6: You can't start Deshaun Watson again. That's an absolute embarrassment.
• 37:39
  Speaker 6: I can't believe they actually went to it and tried
• 37:42
  Speaker 6: to act like that was the right decision too.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: Because I'll tell you this much.
• 37:51
  Speaker 6: A young quarterback can go out and maybe if Shador
• 37:53
  Speaker 6: starts that game, it looks the exact same.
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: Maybe it does.
• 37:58
  Speaker 6: But it's not going to feel the way that that
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: game felt. I think in just alone, getting some of
• 38:06
  Speaker 6: the team back on board would help.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: And I said this from.
• 38:11
  Speaker 6: The beginning if you were listening to when we did
• 38:13
  Speaker 6: our power rankings with tears.
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: I think I had them at 31st in the league.
• 38:19
  Speaker 6: And it feels to me like Todd Munkin is a
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: lame duck quarterback or lame duck head coach who's just
• 38:27
  Speaker 6: there for a year.
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: Much in the same way, who was the Houston Texans
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: coach after they fired Levy Smith? Culley? David Coley was
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: his name.
• 38:38
  Speaker 6: There for a year, everybody knew this wasn't going to
• 38:40
  Speaker 6: be the long-term solution, but you need a coach for
• 38:42
  Speaker 6: a season. But God, I can't believe how embarrassing that was.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: And it happened immediately. After the first quarter, you're down 14-0. Halftime, 24-0.
• 38:59
  Speaker 6: Opening drive of the third quarter, 31-0. And it was
• 39:10
  Speaker 6: that fast. You're like, nope, this doesn't work. We should
• 39:13
  Speaker 6: probably quit. Now the Vikings, here's what's crazy. And mention
• 39:22
  Speaker 6: this before. Minnesota is a very talented football team with
• 39:26
  Speaker 6: a really awful quarterback situation. They have talent all over
• 39:29
  Speaker 6: the field. The question was going to be, was Kevin O'Connell,
• 39:38
  Speaker 6: who is a quarterback whisperer, he gets the most out
• 39:41
  Speaker 6: of anybody who runs through that position. Can he make
• 39:45
  Speaker 6: Kyler Murray reinvent him of sorts? into a decent starting
• 39:50
  Speaker 6: quarterback again in the league. Because if he can, then
• 39:53
  Speaker 6: that team's going to play well. And I watched Kyler
• 39:56
  Speaker 6: Murray almost immediately in that game go down with the concussion.
• 40:01
  Speaker 6: That was after he threw an interception. Like, there was
• 40:03
  Speaker 6: a whole bunch of stuff going on. In comes Carson Wentz.
• 40:08
  Speaker 6: They're playing against the Green Bay Packers, and they go,
• 40:10
  Speaker 6: all right, well, this game's over.
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: And for them to.
• 40:14
  Speaker 6: Battle back, and he gets a three-touchdown performance out of
• 40:17
  Speaker 6: Carson Wentz, And they win by 17, including putting up
• 40:22
  Speaker 6: 22 in the fourth quarter. It's incredibly impressive. But it
• 40:28
  Speaker 6: also hit me, how bad is J.J.
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: McCarthy?
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: That they make the decision to make him inactive. Because
• 40:41
  Speaker 6: you aren't thinking that Carson Wentz is going to play,
• 40:43
  Speaker 6: not in week one. But that he does, goes out
• 40:47
  Speaker 6: there and plays great. Better than any game that J.J.
• 40:50
  Speaker 6: McCarthy ever had. How bad is that, dude? I mean,
• 41:00
  Speaker 6: it's pretty nuts. And then just a couple other quick hitters.
• 41:06
  Speaker 6: The Chicago Bears might score 8 billion points this year
• 41:09
  Speaker 6: and give up 7 billion on the defensive side, but
• 41:12
  Speaker 6: that might be good enough for them to win a
• 41:13
  Speaker 6: whole bunch of football games again.
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: Putting up 59... in the opener to.
• 41:18
  Speaker 6: The season, and I think they had six rushing touchdowns
• 41:20
  Speaker 6: on the day, multiple 100-yard rushers. Ben Johnson is a wizard,
• 41:28
  Speaker 6: I guess is the only sort of conclusion we can
• 41:30
  Speaker 6: come to. And the Cowboys losing to the Giants is
• 41:34
  Speaker 6: very surprising. Because I still don't know if I buy
• 41:38
  Speaker 6: this Giants, Jackson Dart, Cam Scadaboo thing. But I do
• 41:45
  Speaker 6: know that Look, man, the Cowboys are capable of putting
• 41:49
  Speaker 6: up a lot of points. They couldn't run the football
• 41:51
  Speaker 6: at all last night. Dak Prescott looked very limited in
• 41:55
  Speaker 6: that game. I mean, you just got George Pickens on
• 41:58
  Speaker 6: the big new, or he's looking for a big new deal.
• 42:01
  Speaker 6: He's on the franchise tag right now. He only had
• 42:03
  Speaker 6: three catches for 28 yards. CeeDee Lamb only five for 44.
• 42:08
  Speaker 6: And yet, the Giants went out, ran the football incredibly effectively.
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: Jackson Dart looked great. Maybe things are actually coming together.
• 42:19
  Speaker 6: You know, we just had these stats about the last
• 42:23
  Speaker 6: time that the CU Buffs and the CSU Rams both
• 42:27
  Speaker 6: started a season 1-0 and now 2-0. When's the last
• 42:31
  Speaker 6: time the Jets and the Giants were both 1-0 to
• 42:34
  Speaker 6: start the year? How's that for a stat? Now, both played,
• 42:39
  Speaker 6: I think, the most garbage teams you can play in
• 42:41
  Speaker 6: the league. The Jets played the Titans. I'm sorry, the
• 42:44
  Speaker 6: Giants didn't, but the Jets played the Titans. I was
• 42:47
  Speaker 6: thinking of the Raiders and the Dolphins. Raiders are 1-0,
• 42:51
  Speaker 6: but they played Miami. And Miami looked every bit what
• 42:54
  Speaker 6: we thought Miami was going to be at to start
• 42:56
  Speaker 6: the year. So a bunch to talk about over the
• 42:59
  Speaker 6: NFL and college football weekend. We have the first game
• 43:01
  Speaker 6: of the year for the Broncos tonight, Monday night football
