- 0:08Speaker 1: you doing.
- 0:09Speaker 2: It's been a little bit. It's been a little bit
- 0:11Speaker 2: since we've had a part together. Been a little busy
- 0:14Speaker 2: in new job, misedule. I know I missed you more pooky,
- 0:18Speaker 2: but but no, it's been it's been pretty cool. So
- 0:21Speaker 2: we're gonna trying to figure out the new schedule, figure
- 0:23Speaker 2: out the new job when we can get on a record.
- 0:26Speaker 2: But hey, I couldn't be happier. It's football season, baby,
- 0:30Speaker 2: it's back. It's fully back fully, back up up, clap
- 0:35Speaker 2: it up, good back.
- 0:36Speaker 1: Lovely, it's lovely. Not till the middle of February is
- 0:40Speaker 1: where we're gonna have a single week without football man,
- 0:43Speaker 1: single week, single week. Dang yeah, dang it. It's a
- 0:47Speaker 1: great it's a great times now. It's a great times now.
- 0:49Speaker 1: But before we start, find us on Twitch, Discord, TikTok,
- 0:53Speaker 1: Instagram and YouTube under TSSA with a so called sports tannealist.
- 0:57Speaker 1: Whether you listen to this live or another day, we
- 0:59Speaker 1: appreciate it. Make sure you share this to anybody that
- 1:01Speaker 1: likes sports. But as far as not the great times,
- 1:05Speaker 1: kind of a somber time. I think you guys already
- 1:08Speaker 1: knew that we were gonna start off with this big
- 1:11Speaker 1: news right here, Micah Parsons being traded to the Green
- 1:15Speaker 1: Bay Packers for two first round picks twenty six twenty
- 1:19Speaker 1: twenty seven, Kenny Clark and Michael Parson's receiving a four year,
- 1:23Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty eight million dollar contract, one hundred
- 1:26Speaker 1: and twenty million fully guaranteed, at signing one hundred and
- 1:29Speaker 1: forty million in total guarantees, highest paid non quarterback in
- 1:34Speaker 1: NFL history. Josh, what were your takeaways from this? You
- 1:38Speaker 1: go first, Please.
- 1:39Speaker 2: Not mine takeaways. I want to hear your takeaways first.
- 1:43Speaker 2: You go first. You're the Cowboys fan here, what do
- 1:46Speaker 2: you think? Let it all out? Let it all out?
- 1:49Speaker 1: So I'm gonna give you guys a little bit behind
- 1:52Speaker 1: the scenes. So I think it was a Wednesday. I
- 1:54Speaker 1: was working, Yeah, yeah, Wednesday, Wednesday. I was working, and
- 1:58Speaker 1: I remember I wasn't buying my phone and I just
- 2:00Speaker 1: happen to have my airpot in and Josh called me.
- 2:03Speaker 1: I did not believe him at all, and I was like, no,
- 2:06Speaker 1: no way, we didn't trade him you're like, bro, I'm
- 2:08Speaker 1: being serious. Check your phone. Adam Schefter posted it. I
- 2:13Speaker 1: was shocked, I was sad, I was mad, all all
- 2:18Speaker 1: those things right there, and still still it's still crazy
- 2:21Speaker 1: to think that the best, one of the best players
- 2:24Speaker 1: in franchise history, after this young start, is gone. And
- 2:29Speaker 1: I'm gonna say this first and foremost, before I tried
- 2:32Speaker 1: to put on my tenfoil hat and be that optimistic
- 2:35Speaker 1: Cowboy fan, I'm gonna say we should have never trade
- 2:39Speaker 1: away Micah Parsons. Should have signed him early. And he
- 2:43Speaker 1: is worth every single penny even that the Packers gave him.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Even if it would have been forty eight forty seven
- 2:49Speaker 1: million for Michaeh Parsons, we should have kept him. And
- 2:54Speaker 1: I think it's the most idiotic thing that we're gonna do.
- 2:57Speaker 1: And all in all honesty, if we signed him too
- 3:00Speaker 1: three years ago, like you normally should, then you could
- 3:03Speaker 1: have saved an extra ten to fifteen million dollars and
- 3:06Speaker 1: the extra trouble. But all right, let me put on
- 3:10Speaker 1: my tenfoil hat to become this optimistic Cowboys fan. So
- 3:16Speaker 1: we got back Kenny Clark and two first round picks
- 3:18Speaker 1: in return, and we have the second most cap space
- 3:22Speaker 1: now in the NFL. So this will allow us to
- 3:25Speaker 1: re sign the likes of Deron Blant, which we did today,
- 3:28Speaker 1: the Tyler Smith, the George Pickens, the Brandon Aubry, and
- 3:31Speaker 1: we'll have two first round picks for the following years.
- 3:34Speaker 1: And I know people they're gonna say, well, you could
- 3:36Speaker 1: have got this in April. But how I'm looking at it,
- 3:39Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six and twenty twenty seven draft classes
- 3:43Speaker 1: are much better than this draft class as far as
- 3:45Speaker 1: her pass rusher, quarterback and future skill position. As far
- 3:49Speaker 1: as wide receiver, we already know the wide receivers are
- 3:51Speaker 1: going to be loaded down the stretch. And as far
- 3:54Speaker 1: as right now you okay, I'm gonna say this, Micah
- 3:58Speaker 1: Parsons is definitely a better defensive player than Kenny Clark,
- 4:02Speaker 1: do not get me wrong. But as far as the
- 4:05Speaker 1: interior of the defensive line, Kenny Clark is gonna help.
- 4:09Speaker 1: As far as with running up the middle, because that's
- 4:11Speaker 1: been our biggest achilles hill the entirety of the past
- 4:15Speaker 1: decade pretty much. So we're gonna depend on these young
- 4:19Speaker 1: guys of a Donovanezeruku, Dante Fowler, A Sam Williams and
- 4:23Speaker 1: then Houston. I can't think of his first name right now.
- 4:26Speaker 1: We're gonna depend on those guys, and hopefully those five
- 4:30Speaker 1: guys can equal what Michaeh. Parsons does. I'm not gonna
- 4:34Speaker 1: say they're gonna do more. I'm not gonna be that crazy,
- 4:37Speaker 1: but can they equal the production of a Micah Parsons. So,
- 4:42Speaker 1: and even at that, let me say this before I
- 4:44Speaker 1: let you go. Josh Item views as a super Bowl
- 4:46Speaker 1: team before when we had Michah Parsons. So if you
- 4:51Speaker 1: view your not a super Bowl team, trade Michaeh Parsons away,
- 4:55Speaker 1: keep your younger players, give draft assets, which I believe
- 4:58Speaker 1: we could have got way more, but the trades over
- 5:00Speaker 1: so there's nothing we could do about it now. So
- 5:04Speaker 1: it makes sense if you're not a super Bowl team
- 5:06Speaker 1: to kind of hit the reset button because you'd be
- 5:08Speaker 1: paying three guys almost one hundred and fifty two hundred
- 5:13Speaker 1: million dollars. So I get that at the same time,
- 5:16Speaker 1: But at the same time, it's the worst movie could
- 5:19Speaker 1: have made. And I'm heartbroken here, Josh. That was one
- 5:21Speaker 1: of my favorite players right there.
- 5:24Speaker 2: Yeah, well, let's cut the positivity real quick. You trade
- 5:26Speaker 2: the best defensive player in the entire night.
- 5:29Speaker 1: I know.
- 5:31Speaker 2: There's no, there's no. I don't want to hear it
- 5:34Speaker 2: from all these Cowboys fans. Oh, Micah didn't really produce
- 5:38Speaker 2: last year. I haven't seen Micah produce in the playoffs,
- 5:40Speaker 2: so I haven't seen. Okay, you just trade the best
- 5:42Speaker 2: defensive player in the NFL arguably, and it makes zero
- 5:46Speaker 2: sense the production that you would expect to get from
- 5:50Speaker 2: any of these guys on the roster. First of all,
- 5:53Speaker 2: you don't. DeMarcus Lawrence is gone, Micah Parsons is gone.
- 5:56Speaker 2: It's pretty much a whole new defensive line. But on
- 6:00Speaker 2: the back of Osa Digazua, which I think he's a
- 6:04Speaker 2: good player, but he's not this game changing, wrecking defensive lineman.
- 6:09Speaker 2: Right now, you're kind of playing Chiefs mold football where
- 6:11Speaker 2: you just have a lot of bodies but no Chris Jones.
- 6:14Speaker 2: So that's that's the mix, that's the that's the missing
- 6:17Speaker 2: piece of it. You don't have a superstar right now
- 6:19Speaker 2: on that defensive line, and right now you don't have
- 6:21Speaker 2: a superstar on the defense period. There's not a single superstar.
- 6:25Speaker 2: I understand Deron Bland is gonna come back, but who
- 6:27Speaker 2: knows if he's even gonna be the same player he
- 6:29Speaker 2: like he is coming back off a major injury, Trayvon Diggs,
- 6:33Speaker 2: whereas he we have no idea. Well, see, I don't
- 6:37Speaker 2: even think it's gonna matter. I don't even think it's
- 6:39Speaker 2: gonna matter if Trayvon Diggs is back, even be getting
- 6:41Speaker 2: burnt the entire time with them weak knees. So it's
- 6:44Speaker 2: just kind of it's a you traded. The Cowboys have
- 6:50Speaker 2: had really good drafting over the last They've always had
- 6:55Speaker 2: good drafting. Let's just say this. They've always drafted all
- 6:57Speaker 2: pro type of players, Pro Bowl players, players that are
- 7:00Speaker 2: able to get the job done. So now let's take
- 7:03Speaker 2: all these guys, Travis Frederick, Zachmartin, Dak Prescott, Ezekiel Elliott, C.
- 7:07Speaker 2: D Lamb. You trade away the best player out of
- 7:11Speaker 2: every single person that you've ever that you've drafted since
- 7:14Speaker 2: I don't know what EMMITTT. Smith and I'll sit here
- 7:17Speaker 2: and argue that I don't think there's been a better
- 7:19Speaker 2: player than Michah Parsons drafted, And the only one that
- 7:22Speaker 2: I would take as an argument would be Ezekiel Elliott.
- 7:25Speaker 2: I just don't see. I I'm saying it, I think
- 7:29Speaker 2: he's better than DeMarcus where he's better than all these
- 7:32Speaker 2: players I have ever came by, just from a from
- 7:35Speaker 2: a week to week standpoint, DeMarcus ware is not was
- 7:38Speaker 2: not as able to move around the defense as Michael
- 7:42Speaker 2: Parsons is. Michael Parsons can play at the linebacker position,
- 7:45Speaker 2: he can play on the line, he can move anyway
- 7:47Speaker 2: anyway across the line and creak have it. And while
- 7:51Speaker 2: playing coverage, he may not be the greatest in coverage,
- 7:54Speaker 2: but he can at least do it. And that's that's
- 7:56Speaker 2: where you're missing on this defense. Now you're missing probably
- 7:58Speaker 2: the best weapon you could have possibly had on this team.
- 8:02Speaker 2: And to make matters worse, you send him to your rival.
- 8:08Speaker 2: You send him to the Green Bay Packers. And if
- 8:11Speaker 2: you look back at that game when Aaron Jones went crazy,
- 8:14Speaker 2: the Cowboys have not been the same since that game.
- 8:19Speaker 2: Jerry Jones has not made good decisions since that game.
- 8:22Speaker 2: He hasn't given his players the chance to develop. He
- 8:24Speaker 2: hasn't given coaches the time to actually like regroup and restrategize.
- 8:29Speaker 2: It just hasn't been great for the Cowboys over the
- 8:32Speaker 2: last two seasons. And I think this takes just puts
- 8:35Speaker 2: a lot of pressure on Dak Prescott' shoulders more than
- 8:37Speaker 2: it already was already with the high expectations already when
- 8:40Speaker 2: people calling for his job. Now you make matters harder,
- 8:43Speaker 2: you make them worse because now he's playing with his
- 8:45Speaker 2: back against the wall the entire game, trying to put
- 8:48Speaker 2: points on the board when there's no help on the
- 8:51Speaker 2: defensive side. I understand people are saying, we can stop
- 8:53Speaker 2: the run. Now, we can stop the run. Now, we
- 8:55Speaker 2: can stop the run. Now, it's a passing league. It's
- 8:57Speaker 2: a passing league. It's not a running league. No more.
- 9:00Speaker 2: Who can get to the quarterback is who wins the
- 9:02Speaker 2: football games. And you just got rid of probably the
- 9:04Speaker 2: best in the league I got doing.
- 9:07Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go back on this part first. So
- 9:11Speaker 1: first off, I'm gonna say Micah Parsons, I would say
- 9:13Speaker 1: he's better than d war At. There are certain points
- 9:15Speaker 1: of their career right now, I'll I'll give them that,
- 9:18Speaker 1: but he's not as far as first round draft picks.
- 9:20Speaker 1: He's not of the likes of a Tyron Smith or
- 9:23Speaker 1: Zach Martin. I would I would say that he's definitely
- 9:27Speaker 1: top five. I'm I'm just trying. I can't think at
- 9:31Speaker 1: the top of my head right now, but I would
- 9:33Speaker 1: take Ezekiel Elliott. I would take a Tyron Smith of
- 9:37Speaker 1: Zach Martin because they are impacts at that certain moment
- 9:40Speaker 1: right there.
- 9:41Speaker 2: The reason why I don't have him. Love Zeke, Okay, Zeke.
- 9:44Speaker 2: I love Zeke. I will defend Zeke with my entire life.
- 9:47Speaker 2: Prime Zeke was the greatest football player I've probably ever
- 9:51Speaker 2: seen with my own two eyes, outside of Patrick Levaughn Mahomes.
- 9:55Speaker 2: But but you can replace a running back. You can.
- 10:00Speaker 2: You can fill in a running back. You can't replace
- 10:01Speaker 2: what Zeke did. You can't. You can't do that. But
- 10:04Speaker 2: you can kind of bring a Tony Pollard in who's
- 10:06Speaker 2: gonna give you a little bit of a production Michael
- 10:09Speaker 2: Parsons does. Michael Parsons don't grow on trees. They do
- 10:13Speaker 2: not grow on trees. You don't get defensive ends that
- 10:15Speaker 2: run a four to three with that much power. You
- 10:18Speaker 2: just don't get that type of player. I understand Tyron Smith,
- 10:20Speaker 2: the future Hall of Famer should be first ballot Zach
- 10:22Speaker 2: Martin as well, but these guys you protect the quarterback.
- 10:28Speaker 2: The Cowboys have never had a problem with scoring the football.
- 10:31Speaker 2: I will say that their problem has always been the defense,
- 10:34Speaker 2: and you get rid of the best player that you
- 10:36Speaker 2: could have possibly had on your defense.
- 10:39Speaker 1: Trust me, trust me, I did not want Michael Parsons
- 10:42Speaker 1: gone reaction.
- 10:44Speaker 2: He's so called draft picks that are supposed to be valuable.
- 10:48Speaker 2: The Packers aren't gonna suck at football. I don't know
- 10:51Speaker 2: if people know that, Like they're not the Packers right now,
- 10:54Speaker 2: just move booster that bolster themselves up to like a
- 10:58Speaker 2: super contender now, Like they're up there with the Lions
- 11:00Speaker 2: and the Eagles right now in and they might even
- 11:03Speaker 2: be better than the Lions right now. I'm not gonna
- 11:05Speaker 2: say the Eagles, because the Eagles do have bodies on
- 11:07Speaker 2: that defensive line and a Jalen Carter who does kind
- 11:10Speaker 2: of is kind of getting to the upper echelon of
- 11:12Speaker 2: defensive pass rushers and run stoppers because he's just a
- 11:16Speaker 2: do it all defensive tackle. But if you look at
- 11:19Speaker 2: those two teams combined, just because I think the Lions
- 11:22Speaker 2: offensively have the edge over the Packers right now, but
- 11:25Speaker 2: still Jordan Love. Jordan Love showed signs last year and
- 11:29Speaker 2: the year before of being able to play to that
- 11:31Speaker 2: next level and compete with the best of them on
- 11:34Speaker 2: any given Sunday. But what makes them even more scarier
- 11:38Speaker 2: now they're they weren't already a good athletic defense, but
- 11:42Speaker 2: now you pair with Shawn Gary and Micah Parsons on
- 11:44Speaker 2: the same defensive line, both in their primes, it's gonna
- 11:47Speaker 2: look nasty. And they're they're there linebackers already pretty good too,
- 11:51Speaker 2: So it's they the Packers just became a real contender,
- 11:56Speaker 2: barring injury in the NFC. This season starts darting Week
- 12:01Speaker 2: One's there's not gonna be a lot of teams that
- 12:03Speaker 2: can compete with them on both sides of the football,
- 12:05Speaker 2: game in and game out.
- 12:08Speaker 1: So before I get to the Packers side, I'm gonna
- 12:10Speaker 1: get to a little bit more of the Cowboys side.
- 12:13Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say this, as far as with the
- 12:16Speaker 1: Dak Prescott, like how you were touching up on, as
- 12:18Speaker 1: far as there's gonna be more pressure on him, I think,
- 12:21Speaker 1: no matter what people they are gonna just criticize Dak
- 12:24Speaker 1: Prescott even if he's scoring those thirty points. And now
- 12:28Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if that interception totals up to
- 12:31Speaker 1: the twelve or fifteen for him trying to press the issue.
- 12:34Speaker 2: And have it, which I don't mind.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Two two good receivers. So yeah, So I just think
- 12:39Speaker 1: that I don't think let me put it, let me
- 12:42Speaker 1: put it like this, I don't think that Micah Parsons.
- 12:47Speaker 1: As far as this year, it hurts, it hurts for sure,
- 12:52Speaker 1: But I think within the next following years, whenever we
- 12:55Speaker 1: have those two first round picks, whether it's a late
- 12:58Speaker 1: pick next year for them, I think it's gonna be
- 13:00Speaker 1: in the thirties. That's I'm not gonna give away my
- 13:02Speaker 1: full prediction. In the thirties, and wherever Dallas finishes may
- 13:07Speaker 1: be in the teams this year or whatever, you could
- 13:09Speaker 1: use that to possibly trade up for a generational guy
- 13:12Speaker 1: or something along the likes of that. So this year
- 13:15Speaker 1: there's definitely gonna be a blow, But as far as
- 13:17Speaker 1: the following years and as far as how the cap
- 13:20Speaker 1: is going to be better. But anyways, you shouldn't have
- 13:23Speaker 1: trade away Micah Parsons and to the packers, to the
- 13:26Speaker 1: packers out of all the teams, it's the worst thing
- 13:28Speaker 1: to the chiefs. No, y'all need to sign McDuffie.
- 13:33Speaker 2: Y'all need to sign m He'll get signed.
- 13:35Speaker 1: He says he's not gonna get signed to it, or
- 13:38Speaker 1: they said they stopped contract talks to after the season.
- 13:41Speaker 2: He'll get signed. He'll get signed.
- 13:42Speaker 1: I ain't wor no, but okay, as far as with
- 13:46Speaker 1: the Packers side, right here, I think this year and
- 13:51Speaker 1: next year, if they don't win a Super Bowl, then
- 13:55Speaker 1: this could be an ultimate I'm not gonna say mistake,
- 14:00Speaker 1: but a big swing and miss here. Because they have
- 14:03Speaker 1: three of their starting offensive linemen up for a contract.
- 14:07Speaker 1: You're paying Jordan Love and Micah Parsons over one hundred
- 14:10Speaker 1: million dollars, which no other team in NFL history has
- 14:15Speaker 1: done that or is doing that. The closest is of Bengals,
- 14:18Speaker 1: and they're paying eighty five million, and we know how
- 14:20Speaker 1: their cap situation is. So I think they're at the
- 14:24Speaker 1: position right now where they have to win within these
- 14:28Speaker 1: next two years. If not this year, if not this
- 14:31Speaker 1: year or else, they could be stuck in no man's land.
- 14:35Speaker 1: But I think Jordan Love is gonna take that next step.
- 14:39Speaker 1: But they have to cash in right now or else
- 14:43Speaker 1: this is gonna be very bad for them. So let
- 14:47Speaker 1: me ask you this, what would what would you consider
- 14:50Speaker 1: disappointment for the Green Bay Packers, Like what do they
- 14:53Speaker 1: have to reach for it to not be a disappointment this.
- 14:55Speaker 2: Year, for it to not be a disappointment. Lose to
- 14:59Speaker 2: the kansasity, she's in the super Bowl because you know,
- 15:01Speaker 2: we're just gonna win the next.
- 15:02Speaker 1: Three Okay, fair enough, so super Bowl or bust.
- 15:08Speaker 2: Okay. No, I feel like NFC Championship toe to toe
- 15:12Speaker 2: with the Eagles. I can that that's I think that's
- 15:14Speaker 2: a successful year. I feel like if they can get
- 15:16Speaker 2: over the hump with the Eagles, good because I just
- 15:19Speaker 2: still do think the Eagles are a big threat. Like
- 15:21Speaker 2: no matter like this this move just moves the Packers
- 15:25Speaker 2: into that upper echelon of NFC teams. It doesn't. It doesn't.
- 15:28Speaker 2: They don't. They don't like stay stagnant. We're like, okay,
- 15:31Speaker 2: they have these they have super high expectations now. But
- 15:34Speaker 2: I think I don't think it's where it boosters them
- 15:36Speaker 2: above the Eagles or necessarily like the Lions, for like
- 15:39Speaker 2: a team that's like for sure the favorites to make
- 15:42Speaker 2: it to this Bowl. I think it just puts them
- 15:44Speaker 2: right with them, if that makes sense. I I think
- 15:47Speaker 2: I think the Lions getting back Aiden Hutchinson this year,
- 15:50Speaker 2: a couple of guys coming back healthy, like uh, Jack Campbell. Yeah,
- 15:56Speaker 2: a lot of their secondary is coming back healthier. On
- 15:59Speaker 2: the offensive, they still got the same old guys. They
- 16:02Speaker 2: expect Jamison Williams to take that next step. They've been
- 16:06Speaker 2: hyping him up all off season. They expect Jimior Gibbs
- 16:09Speaker 2: to take that next step, along with David Montgomery still
- 16:11Speaker 2: being that one B role kind of taking a lesser
- 16:13Speaker 2: world this year, I feel like, but he's still going
- 16:15Speaker 2: to be a very major part of this offense. And
- 16:17Speaker 2: then plus they added Isaac Tesla, who I think is
- 16:20Speaker 2: going to be a really good football player at their
- 16:21Speaker 2: number three spot. I think he's really going to do
- 16:23Speaker 2: a lot of work and let's say I don't know,
- 16:25Speaker 2: he could offer a lot of value to this team,
- 16:27Speaker 2: especially being six to four and being able to play
- 16:28Speaker 2: out the slot and on the outside. And then with
- 16:31Speaker 2: the Eagles, I mean, I mean they're the DEFINIX Super
- 16:34Speaker 2: World Champs for a reason. They pretty much brought back everybody.
- 16:37Speaker 2: They didn't really lose anybody. Yeah, they really have the
- 16:40Speaker 2: weakest weaknesses really on this football team besides the quarterback position.
- 16:45Speaker 2: But he still finds a way to get the job
- 16:47Speaker 2: done in the Super Bowl and elevates his game when
- 16:49Speaker 2: it matters the most. So I still think it's going
- 16:52Speaker 2: to be those three. Now, these three teams neck and
- 16:55Speaker 2: neck to who's going to make the Super Bowl and
- 16:57Speaker 2: play the Kansas City Chiefs ultimately and lose.
- 17:00Speaker 1: But okay, well, well we'll see, we'll see. Okay. As
- 17:05Speaker 1: far as anything else with this Micah Parsons sweep stakes
- 17:09Speaker 1: right here.
- 17:09Speaker 2: I just I just don't see the view on the
- 17:11Speaker 2: draft picks that you think you're gonna receive. I think
- 17:13Speaker 2: maybe next year you have two first round draft picks.
- 17:16Speaker 2: Who knows what the Cowboys record is gonna be, maybe
- 17:19Speaker 2: nine wins. I can see the Cowboys still pulling out
- 17:22Speaker 2: nine wins in this season, and you're gonna have a
- 17:26Speaker 2: mid tier pick. Are you gonna go for like a
- 17:27Speaker 2: Cornell Tait? I mean, you have George Pickens. Now you're
- 17:30Speaker 2: gonna go for Trio. I don't know many defensive players
- 17:32Speaker 2: coming out this year. Next in twenty twenty seven, I
- 17:36Speaker 2: don't know if you're gonna be in the running for
- 17:38Speaker 2: one of those top guys that is like Ryan Williams,
- 17:40Speaker 2: Jeremiah Smith, and a couple others I don't like, and
- 17:43Speaker 2: like a couple. Maybe you're playing for a running back
- 17:45Speaker 2: this year. Maybe Jeremiah loves the move, you know, when
- 17:47Speaker 2: if he comes out and you wanna make a move
- 17:50Speaker 2: for a real one, a running back, you go for
- 17:52Speaker 2: Jeremiah Love. But that's if you have the draft capital
- 17:55Speaker 2: or even get him, you know. So maybe it's a
- 17:57Speaker 2: move to trade up having two first round draft picks.
- 18:00Speaker 2: We'll have to wait and see.
- 18:02Speaker 1: I think it's more of a trade up, and I think,
- 18:05Speaker 1: if not, it's gonna be adding the quality players, maybe
- 18:09Speaker 1: not the star, maybe not the star guy like you're saying,
- 18:12Speaker 1: But like you were saying earlier, I think we have
- 18:15Speaker 1: one superstar on defense and he's coming back, and I
- 18:18Speaker 1: think he'll be fine because his recovery has been going well.
- 18:20Speaker 1: It's Demaron Overshown. That's our one superstar on defense. And
- 18:24Speaker 1: I think what the philosophy is gonna be from what
- 18:28Speaker 1: I'm thinking, Okay, let's just say both of these picks
- 18:30Speaker 1: are in the twenties. Adding those quality guys. We again,
- 18:35Speaker 1: it's hard to hit on a star guy, a star
- 18:38Speaker 1: just a star player in general, whether it's on the
- 18:41Speaker 1: offense or defensive side of the ball. So the quality
- 18:45Speaker 1: or what is it the quality over quantity or no
- 18:49Speaker 1: quantity over quality. Yeah, I said it the wrong way.
- 18:51Speaker 1: I said it the wrong way, but I think it's
- 18:53Speaker 1: gonna be more that approach. But again, Micah Parsons, you
- 18:57Speaker 1: can't replace him, you can't replace it. I'm I'm not
- 18:59Speaker 1: dis agreeing with that at all. Micah Parsons being traded
- 19:02Speaker 1: is a disgusting move and to all the places of Packers,
- 19:07Speaker 1: it just makes it much much worse. So all right, Josh,
- 19:12Speaker 1: let's go in and get into this next area. So
- 19:16Speaker 1: we're gonna get a little bit off of NFL right now,
- 19:18Speaker 1: we're gonna go into college football. So we talked about
- 19:22Speaker 1: it in our group chat. Let's let's go in and
- 19:23Speaker 1: get to the big game. College football had happened. Everybody
- 19:26Speaker 1: was excited for this game, the defending champs, Ohio State
- 19:31Speaker 1: versus a new prospect that we haven't seen officially start
- 19:35Speaker 1: at the very beginning of the season, Arch Manning in Texas,
- 19:39Speaker 1: so Ohio State. They won the game fourteen to seven.
- 19:43Speaker 1: What do you see from that game? Or what do
- 19:44Speaker 1: you see from Arch Manning?
- 19:46Speaker 2: And we're skipping over text to Tech whooping Arkansas Pine Bluffs,
- 19:51Speaker 2: but wherever broat like sixty points but whatever I mean, cool,
- 19:56Speaker 2: I guess. But when it comes to Arch Manning, it
- 19:59Speaker 2: was very disappointing. All this hype coming into this game,
- 20:02Speaker 2: that he's built for this moment, that he should have
- 20:04Speaker 2: no jitters playing on the road in Ohio, going to
- 20:08Speaker 2: Ohio to play Ohio State, that he was gonna show
- 20:11Speaker 2: out no matter what. It was all hype, all hype,
- 20:14Speaker 2: the Manning name, Arch Madness. They were talking all about it.
- 20:18Speaker 2: But as soon as that game started, you could tell
- 20:22Speaker 2: his mind was somewhere else. You can tell it. He
- 20:24Speaker 2: just was not ready for the magnitude of the stage
- 20:28Speaker 2: to play Ohio State, the defending national champions on opening Day.
- 20:33Speaker 2: It just it just didn't look fluid at all. He
- 20:36Speaker 2: was forcing balls. He there was a couple of times.
- 20:39Speaker 2: There was one when he got to the red zone.
- 20:41Speaker 2: First of all, their red zone offense was atrocious for
- 20:44Speaker 2: ut They did not get the job done really at all.
- 20:48Speaker 2: When they got to the red zone. They failed on
- 20:50Speaker 2: a QB sneak. They felt they failed with the ball
- 20:53Speaker 2: with the game on the line a couple of times,
- 20:56Speaker 2: even in that final throw when he threw across the
- 20:58Speaker 2: field to the end zone. He had three two guys
- 21:02Speaker 2: open on the left side, or he could have just
- 21:04Speaker 2: ran and he but instead he threw the hardest pass
- 21:07Speaker 2: he could have possibly thrown to a receiver screaming across
- 21:11Speaker 2: on the other side of the field, like he just
- 21:14Speaker 2: and he hit him. But that's the hardest pass he
- 21:17Speaker 2: could have made. It's the longest time throw, there's a
- 21:20Speaker 2: defender blanketed all over him. It just was not gonna
- 21:23Speaker 2: work out. And then if we look at him, however,
- 21:26Speaker 2: I will say he did put some balls where they
- 21:28Speaker 2: needed to be. He they in really good connection with
- 21:30Speaker 2: the with some receivers. But for the most part, both
- 21:33Speaker 2: quarterbacks really struggled against these defenses. And as far as
- 21:36Speaker 2: arch Manning, he couldn't have had a harder opening night.
- 21:40Speaker 2: He especially playing a defensive coinator who's a three time
- 21:44Speaker 2: Super Bowl champion and Matt Patricia mediocre Detroit Lions head coach.
- 21:49Speaker 2: But that's okay. But and then just playing against a
- 21:53Speaker 2: star studded defense led by Caleb Downs.
- 21:56Speaker 1: It's just.
- 21:59Speaker 2: We'll just see next week versus San Jose State. I mean,
- 22:02Speaker 2: I think he needed I think I know it's not,
- 22:06Speaker 2: but I think he needed a couple tune up games
- 22:08Speaker 2: before playing a team like Ohio State out of the gate. Well,
- 22:12Speaker 2: I'm not too worried. I think he'll make adjustments. I
- 22:14Speaker 2: think Steve Starkejian needs to kind of real back, really
- 22:17Speaker 2: back a little bit, go back to the drawing board,
- 22:20Speaker 2: maybe figure it out. But right now I don't he doesn't.
- 22:24Speaker 2: Not a lot of people are believing in Arch arch
- 22:26Speaker 2: Manning right now.
- 22:28Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say this first off, So first before
- 22:33Speaker 1: I talk, because I'm gonna talk a little bit more
- 22:35Speaker 1: about Texas right here. Ohio State, they definitely won this game.
- 22:37Speaker 1: They showed why they're the defending champs.
- 22:40Speaker 2: Julian Sane played amazing.
- 22:41Speaker 1: Yeah, Julian saying, freshman quarterback, he outperformed Arch Manning and
- 22:47Speaker 1: he was a number one quarterback in his class for
- 22:49Speaker 1: a reason. And also, one last thing, Caleb downs He's
- 22:53Speaker 1: gonna be a top five draft pick this year. He's
- 22:55Speaker 1: single handedly shut down one side of the field this year.
- 22:59Speaker 1: Whether he's a corner safety, there's a bunch of Kyle
- 23:02Speaker 1: Hamilton in them. There's a bunch of Kyle Hamilton that
- 23:04Speaker 1: you see. But as far as Texas, Arch fallow. He's
- 23:11Speaker 1: falling to the Packers, fall into the Chiefs. No. But
- 23:15Speaker 1: as far as arch Manning, arch Manning definitely didn't have
- 23:19Speaker 1: the outing that everyone expected, even what I expected. I
- 23:23Speaker 1: didn't think he was gonna have this crazy game where
- 23:26Speaker 1: he lit it for like four touchdowns three hundred yards
- 23:28Speaker 1: because I thought it was going to be a low
- 23:29Speaker 1: scoring game like this. But I expect him to make
- 23:32Speaker 1: those drag those drag throws. I don't know how many
- 23:35Speaker 1: throws it was. I think it was like four or
- 23:37Speaker 1: five of them where it was just gimme throws right there,
- 23:40Speaker 1: and there's times where they could have got up like
- 23:43Speaker 1: twenty thirty yard completion. And I just think that arch Manning,
- 23:48Speaker 1: this means his first real game. I know he played
- 23:50Speaker 1: some games last year, but this meant his first real
- 23:53Speaker 1: game where they could single handedly key in on him
- 23:56Speaker 1: see what his weaknesses and strengths are. They definitely took
- 24:00Speaker 1: advantage of that. And I just think that arch Manning
- 24:02Speaker 1: He's going to get better as the season goes. And
- 24:05Speaker 1: there's a reason why these older quarterbacks in college football,
- 24:09Speaker 1: like the North Sellers or some of these other guys,
- 24:12Speaker 1: I don't even have to mention that they're better because
- 24:16Speaker 1: they played more college football games.
- 24:18Speaker 2: Well, well, Leonora Sellers isn't older. He's a lot younger. Actually,
- 24:22Speaker 2: he's only twenty years old, but he.
- 24:24Speaker 1: Played last year. I mean more experience. Yeah, that's what
- 24:28Speaker 1: I mean. Like they need the experience, They need the
- 24:31Speaker 1: experience there. So that's why I think people that are
- 24:33Speaker 1: even saying, well arch Manning he made declare for this year. No,
- 24:36Speaker 1: I think he needs next year too to even work
- 24:40Speaker 1: up as far as his college college football experience, even
- 24:43Speaker 1: to get to the pro levels, because in this especially nowadays,
- 24:47Speaker 1: you need your older quarterbacks to win. Just look last
- 24:50Speaker 1: year with Will Howard. He wasn't this generational prospect. He
- 24:53Speaker 1: just played a bunch of college football games and he
- 24:56Speaker 1: just knew how to win and how to get the
- 24:59Speaker 1: job done. And just doesn't know that yet. And I
- 25:02Speaker 1: still have my stock in arch Manning. I'm not worried.
- 25:05Speaker 1: I'm not worried. I think it's just wrong place, wrong time.
- 25:09Speaker 1: Definitely played bad, but I don't expect him to have
- 25:12Speaker 1: another game. We'll see his next big test. I don't
- 25:16Speaker 1: know the exact date, but it's in Georgia. I think
- 25:19Speaker 1: it's like late November. I think that's the next game
- 25:21Speaker 1: where they have their only test. So we'll wait another
- 25:25Speaker 1: seven to eight weeks and we'll see how how good
- 25:28Speaker 1: he is from there.
- 25:29Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think a lot of it falls on
- 25:31Speaker 2: Steve Sarkujan as well. Like I feel like at the
- 25:34Speaker 2: beginning of the game, he didn't do arch Manning any
- 25:36Speaker 2: justice by not running the football as much. He put
- 25:39Speaker 2: them behind the sticks quite a bit, even playing with
- 25:41Speaker 2: a lot of long convert along third downs, like thirty
- 25:45Speaker 2: and five pluses, And that's just not gonna be a
- 25:47Speaker 2: recipe for success for your quarterback that's starting his first
- 25:52Speaker 2: game in college football, like versus a real team, like
- 25:56Speaker 2: a real football team that he's gonna make his first
- 25:59Speaker 2: start against. He just didn't set him up well. He
- 26:01Speaker 2: didn't do any real designed runs. A lot of the
- 26:03Speaker 2: runs that arch did was when the pocket broke down
- 26:05Speaker 2: and he just took off. There was one where I
- 26:08Speaker 2: thought he should have pulled it and he would have
- 26:10Speaker 2: scored a touchdown or he would have got a first
- 26:11Speaker 2: down or a touchdown, but he didn't do that there.
- 26:14Speaker 2: But you know, Steve Sarkisian also needs to make some
- 26:18Speaker 2: adjustments before the next game is, before the next before
- 26:21Speaker 2: conference play.
- 26:22Speaker 1: Honestly, yeah, I know for sure, I definitely agree with
- 26:27Speaker 1: you that play call, and it was a little bit fishy,
- 26:29Speaker 1: but again, it's it's Ohio Sate at the same time,
- 26:33Speaker 1: it's the Ohio State defense. But all right, let's go
- 26:37Speaker 1: to talk about this next game, right here, Josh. A
- 26:40Speaker 1: team that was a fourteen and a half point underdog,
- 26:45Speaker 1: a team that wasn't expected to win versus a team
- 26:48Speaker 1: that had high expectations were ranked number eight in.
- 26:51Speaker 2: The saw Pine Bluff versus Texas Tech.
- 26:56Speaker 1: But all right, Florida State versus Alabama, in which it
- 27:01Speaker 1: was a complete upset. Florida State beat Alabama thirty one
- 27:05Speaker 1: to seventeen, which it looks closer than what it actually was. Here.
- 27:09Speaker 1: Was there anything that you saw from this game in general?
- 27:13Speaker 1: What do you feel about or what do you feel
- 27:16Speaker 1: I think?
- 27:16Speaker 2: For me, I think Florida State play their asses off.
- 27:22Speaker 2: I think they've got the job done. They kept going
- 27:25Speaker 2: at Alabama even when it felt like maybe Alabama's gonna
- 27:29Speaker 2: get things going. No, Florida State answered the call every
- 27:31Speaker 2: single time. I think a lot of it. I mean,
- 27:33Speaker 2: I'm not taking nothing away from Florida State. They don't
- 27:35Speaker 2: get this wrong. But Kaitlin do boor there has to
- 27:39Speaker 2: be a question now, like there has to be a
- 27:42Speaker 2: question on whether he's the guy for this job. Nick Saban,
- 27:46Speaker 2: Alabama football team would have never gone through this. I
- 27:50Speaker 2: don't think they would have ever been what they've been
- 27:53Speaker 2: over the last ten games. They are five and five
- 27:57Speaker 2: over the last ten games. The Alabamamon tie. That's unheard
- 28:01Speaker 2: of over the last fifteen plus years for Alabama, and
- 28:06Speaker 2: they're also one in four when it comes to playing
- 28:09Speaker 2: other Power five teams over the last five games on
- 28:13Speaker 2: the road. That's just not good for them. That's something
- 28:17Speaker 2: that's never happened before. And I think that there's a
- 28:21Speaker 2: lot of question marks going into these next couple of
- 28:23Speaker 2: games whether he's on the hot seat. I highly doubt
- 28:26Speaker 2: he's gonna be gone because they have to pay seventy
- 28:29Speaker 2: million dollars to him straight up if they want him gone.
- 28:31Speaker 2: So that's a lot of money, and they don't have
- 28:32Speaker 2: oil field money like these Texas schools to be doing
- 28:35Speaker 2: that like A and M did with what's his name,
- 28:40Speaker 2: Jimbo Fisher. So I think that Alabama's gonna have to
- 28:46Speaker 2: have a lot more discipline, have a lot more fight
- 28:48Speaker 2: in them for these next couple of games, especially going
- 28:50Speaker 2: into big conference play, because they don't look like the
- 28:53Speaker 2: same Alabama Crimson Tide it that they did a couple
- 28:56Speaker 2: of seasons ago and they're just not the same threat
- 28:59Speaker 2: no more college football.
- 29:02Speaker 1: So first I'm gonna say with Alabama and Florida State,
- 29:06Speaker 1: there is let me give you a little bit of
- 29:09Speaker 1: history as far as what goes back between Alabama and
- 29:11Speaker 1: Florida State. So it goes back to twenty sixteen. No, no,
- 29:16Speaker 1: there's some history. There's some history. So it was twenty sixteen,
- 29:21Speaker 1: the number one versus number two rank DeAndre Franz Wall
- 29:24Speaker 1: he was a quarterback versus Alabama. He broke his leg
- 29:27Speaker 1: on the first drive and then after that pretty much
- 29:30Speaker 1: our season it was done. Then we go to two
- 29:33Speaker 1: years ago. Obviously the infamous Florida.
- 29:36Speaker 2: State left died.
- 29:37Speaker 1: Yeah, something about our quarterback's legs getting broken. I don't
- 29:41Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. So then it goes Alabama.
- 29:45Speaker 1: They get in over Florida State a couple years ago.
- 29:48Speaker 1: Then finally we get to line up with them. So
- 29:51Speaker 1: this was set two years ago. Whenever we law or
- 29:54Speaker 1: we got screwed over, we're like, all right, well, we
- 29:57Speaker 1: want Bama in a couple of years, we Bama. We
- 30:01Speaker 1: wanted the smoke, and we brought. We brought the smoke.
- 30:05Speaker 1: Forty nine carries two hundred and thirty yard. That's almost
- 30:08Speaker 1: five yards to carry. That is big boy football right there.
- 30:12Speaker 1: Gus maus on old Auburn, old Auburn coach, so he
- 30:16Speaker 1: knows Bama well, and he's like, all right, this isn't
- 30:19Speaker 1: the same Bama team. We are going to run the
- 30:22Speaker 1: ball right at them. And let me give you let
- 30:26Speaker 1: me tell you a couple more things. Three people that
- 30:28Speaker 1: stood out, Tommy Costianos that transferred from Boston College. He
- 30:33Speaker 1: looked amazing, He looked amazing, and I was honestly surprised
- 30:37Speaker 1: on how well he did. And two guys that popped
- 30:41Speaker 1: out on defense, Earl Little Junior and then Justin Cryer.
- 30:45Speaker 1: These guys are going to be first round draft picks.
- 30:48Speaker 1: I know, probably not till the next two years, but
- 30:50Speaker 1: these guys are going to be highly doubted guys and
- 30:53Speaker 1: they're proving I think this is just a complete dismantling Obama.
- 30:58Speaker 1: And I have the same questions too. Even no I'm
- 31:00Speaker 1: a little bit biased towards Florida State, Caylen de Boor,
- 31:03Speaker 1: we don't know about him, and I think people they
- 31:06Speaker 1: always wondered, why don't you have a Sapan or a
- 31:09Speaker 1: Nick Saban disciple? As far as somebody who's underneath this tree? So, okay,
- 31:16Speaker 1: let me ask you this.
- 31:17Speaker 2: Nick sat him? He did?
- 31:19Speaker 1: He didn't pick him?
- 31:21Speaker 2: I thought he did.
- 31:23Speaker 1: No, Nick Saban didn't pick him. Where am I tripping?
- 31:27Speaker 1: Am I thinking of somebody else?
- 31:28Speaker 2: I think Nick Saban picked him? B Yeah?
- 31:31Speaker 1: Really I thought, because no, I'm tripping. I guess I
- 31:36Speaker 1: thought it was Dan Lannon or Mike Norvel or Kirby Smart.
- 31:40Speaker 2: Between Mike Norvel and Kaylen de Boor, Oh, we.
- 31:44Speaker 1: See who won that matchup right there? We see who
- 31:47Speaker 1: won that matchup right there. But okay, let me ask
- 31:51Speaker 1: you this. If Bama doesn't say they finished ten to
- 31:55Speaker 1: two this year, do you think Klen de bor keeps
- 31:58Speaker 1: his job?
- 32:00Speaker 2: Who do they lose to Georgia?
- 32:02Speaker 1: They have lsu Georgia, South Carolina. They don't have Texas
- 32:07Speaker 1: this year? Who else do they have? I think they
- 32:11Speaker 1: have Florida too, So a bunch of a bunch of
- 32:15Speaker 1: good teams there.
- 32:16Speaker 2: Tennessee depends on it depends on the loss and how
- 32:20Speaker 2: you lost. I feel like I don't, but I don't.
- 32:23Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of money that's gonna come
- 32:25Speaker 2: out of pocket if they He still has five more
- 32:27Speaker 2: years left on that contract, so it's like, oh, you know,
- 32:33Speaker 2: a lot of money, a lot of money to throw
- 32:34Speaker 2: at somebody to get them rid of them.
- 32:37Speaker 1: Well, okay, do you.
- 32:39Speaker 2: Think Bill Belichick's girlfriend's gonna be on the sideline?
- 32:43Speaker 1: I think so? Is A is a game starting right.
- 32:46Speaker 2: Now seven minutes?
- 32:49Speaker 1: Is it Is it true that she has like some
- 32:52Speaker 1: not control, not literally control, but like.
- 32:55Speaker 2: Some stuff occult practices. Yeah, I'm just kidding. No, I
- 33:04Speaker 2: don't know, like they say she.
- 33:05Speaker 1: Has some like some control like in that organization, which
- 33:10Speaker 1: is crazy, which is crazy.
- 33:12Speaker 2: To me, but media maybe I don't know.
- 33:15Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 33:16Speaker 2: But all right, but what else we talk about? A football?
- 33:21Speaker 1: Well, any other college game that stood out to you?
- 33:23Speaker 1: Are you going to bring up Tech? You can bring
- 33:25Speaker 1: up Tech?
- 33:26Speaker 2: Nah, it was I felt bad for Arkansas Pine Bluff.
- 33:31Speaker 1: He has a real shot. Tech has a real shot
- 33:35Speaker 1: this year.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Yeah, Barry Morten's about to win the Heisman. No, I'm
- 33:38Speaker 2: just kidding. The real person that's gonna win the Heisman
- 33:40Speaker 2: is Noora Steller's That guy is crazy. Leonora Sellers is
- 33:44Speaker 2: probably gonna be umber one draft pick this year, I
- 33:46Speaker 2: think wholeheartedly. I think if he comes out the draft
- 33:49Speaker 2: this season, he's gonna be the number one overall draft pick.
- 33:52Speaker 2: For what he can do is Cam Newton like, and
- 33:55Speaker 2: he's got a lot better at throwing the football this year.
- 33:58Speaker 2: And plus Nick Harbor, if Nick Carver comes out this
- 34:01Speaker 2: year too, just the athletic profile alone, bro, He's about
- 34:05Speaker 2: to be a first round draft pick, easily, easily a
- 34:08Speaker 2: first round draft pick.
- 34:09Speaker 1: I think what they say is he runs a ten
- 34:13Speaker 1: point one for one hundred yards something like that. It's
- 34:16Speaker 1: something crazy like that. I saw it somewhere on Twitter.
- 34:20Speaker 1: But okay, as soon as I saw the whole or
- 34:25Speaker 1: Sellers at Illinois, Sellers as far as like his game
- 34:28Speaker 1: that he was having people the first thing that they
- 34:30Speaker 1: did watch Anthony Richardson a little bit better than I'm
- 34:36Speaker 1: not going to say a lot, but he's way better
- 34:38Speaker 1: than ar Yeah, and that's what I'm saying. It's like
- 34:42Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson in college and he had flashes. Yeah, I
- 34:47Speaker 1: know for sure, for sure, I could see that for sure.
- 34:50Speaker 2: This was the first game.
- 34:54Speaker 1: In college.
- 34:56Speaker 2: In college for sure.
- 35:01Speaker 1: Man, It's just some of the throws ar he was making.
- 35:03Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm an Anthony Richardson fans too though.
- 35:06Speaker 1: I'm an Anthony Richardson fan too though, so, but this
- 35:09Speaker 1: was the first game that I.
- 35:10Speaker 2: Wont Daniel Jones fan, So there's always time to switch up.
- 35:13Speaker 1: So I but this is the first game that I
- 35:17Speaker 1: watched the Noor Sellers, and like I watched him, like
- 35:20Speaker 1: I knew about him from the very beginning, because like
- 35:22Speaker 1: towards the end of the season when they were making
- 35:24Speaker 1: that playoff push, I was kind of learning about him.
- 35:27Speaker 1: But like this is the first game, it's like, all right,
- 35:29Speaker 1: this is somebody that I'm excited to watch. And he
- 35:33Speaker 1: proved exactly why he could make every single throw. So
- 35:38Speaker 1: who who would be the first pick this year? The Saints?
- 35:41Speaker 1: How'd you feel if the Saints got Lenor Sellers this year?
- 35:46Speaker 2: Stay another year, bro, stay another year.
- 35:50Speaker 1: No, But they South Carolina. They have a really good
- 35:54Speaker 1: shot this year. They have a really.
- 35:55Speaker 2: Good shot the playoffs. They just have to the chips
- 35:58Speaker 2: doesn't have to fall the right way I think for them,
- 36:01Speaker 2: Like when it comes to a matchup like you know,
- 36:04Speaker 2: so I but I do think they can make the
- 36:06Speaker 2: Clagetball playoff and I think Lenora Sellers is gonna have
- 36:09Speaker 2: a real bid for the Heisman this year. But another
- 36:11Speaker 2: another game that really stood out was Notre Dame versus Miami.
- 36:15Speaker 2: I think both teams played very well. I think that
- 36:17Speaker 2: was a really good opening night for both of them.
- 36:20Speaker 2: I don't think it's where I don't think it's one
- 36:22Speaker 2: of those where Notre Dame's worrying about their collegeball playoff
- 36:24Speaker 2: hopes after this. I really do think going wire to
- 36:26Speaker 2: wire with Miami, who was also a top ten ranked team,
- 36:31Speaker 2: they both played great. Carson Beck looked like he fit
- 36:33Speaker 2: right in at Miami, like he really he's really fitting
- 36:37Speaker 2: in well, especially against that Notre Dame defense, who is
- 36:39Speaker 2: a really good defense. Like let's not get that wrong,
- 36:41Speaker 2: but that was the first time in a while that
- 36:43Speaker 2: I've seen Notre Dame get really bully like, not be
- 36:46Speaker 2: the dominant forced team, the more physical team than the opposition,
- 36:50Speaker 2: and quite almost quite a long time.
- 36:55Speaker 1: Okay, so I don't know the exact name of that
- 36:58Speaker 1: guy that made that one had a catch right there,
- 37:01Speaker 1: but that was one of the greatest touchdown catches I've seen.
- 37:05Speaker 1: I know it sounds crazy, but since that Odell catch
- 37:07Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football versus the Cowboys. That was a crazy
- 37:11Speaker 1: catch right there.
- 37:12Speaker 2: It was that good.
- 37:14Speaker 1: You don't think it was that good. He was leaning
- 37:17Speaker 1: back and it looks exactly the same like the Odell.
- 37:20Speaker 1: I forgot this guy's this guy's name. It's either CJ.
- 37:24Speaker 1: Daniels or Malachai Tony, one of the two. One of
- 37:27Speaker 1: the two, because I'm looking at the box score right now,
- 37:29Speaker 1: I was trying to figure out which one it was.
- 37:30Speaker 1: But yeah, no, this was a really good game right
- 37:33Speaker 1: here in Miami. They somehow look better even though they
- 37:37Speaker 1: lost cam Ward last or to the draft this year.
- 37:40Speaker 1: I know they got Carson Beck who was a highly
- 37:42Speaker 1: doubted prospect last year, but he looks much better than
- 37:45Speaker 1: he did last year. And Jeremiah Love only having Tim Cares.
- 37:50Speaker 2: Yeah, it's ridiculous, but to be fair, CJ. Carr was
- 37:53Speaker 2: playing a really good game. CJ. Carr for Notre Dame.
- 37:56Speaker 2: He was playing a really good game.
- 37:58Speaker 1: Well, they were getting back in the game, but what
- 38:00Speaker 1: was it when they threw the screen pass and then
- 38:02Speaker 1: the Miami defender kicked the ball kicked off his foot
- 38:05Speaker 1: and they got that pick right there. So it's just
- 38:08Speaker 1: unfortunate bounces right there. But I think notre damn. They're
- 38:11Speaker 1: gonna be fine. They're gonna be fine. They're in an
- 38:13Speaker 1: independent conference, so they picked. I don't think they have
- 38:17Speaker 1: another tough game till Texas A and M.
- 38:19Speaker 2: They had a pretty week schedule.
- 38:21Speaker 1: Yeah, which that's that's the benefit of them being an
- 38:24Speaker 1: independent Yeah. No, Oh, they play A and M next week.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Oh oh, okay, so it's A and M. Their only
- 38:34Speaker 1: tough game is A and M and us UFC's and
- 38:41Speaker 1: I don't know that's it. It's just A and M.
- 38:43Speaker 1: But if they start off zero to two, they might have.
- 38:46Speaker 1: They might have a bad start.
- 38:49Speaker 2: From the play Boise as well this year Boise State,
- 38:52Speaker 2: but they're not the same obviously without.
- 38:55Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's why I didn't mention boys. Yeah, but
- 38:59Speaker 1: it is there any other games that the interest that
- 39:04Speaker 1: interested you this weekend?
- 39:05Speaker 2: I mean Clemson versus LSU, But to be honest, I
- 39:08Speaker 2: didn't watch it, so I can't really comment too heavily
- 39:11Speaker 2: on it. Kate club Nick did not have a good game.
- 39:15Speaker 2: I know that for sure.
- 39:16Speaker 1: He didn't.
- 39:18Speaker 2: I didn't stay up late enough to watch Nico on
- 39:20Speaker 2: your Nico Elia, I forgot to say you how to
- 39:23Speaker 2: say his name. Yeah, I didn't stay up late enough
- 39:29Speaker 2: to watch him play versus Utah, So I can't really
- 39:33Speaker 2: say much on that. Now. We're just waiting for Bill
- 39:35Speaker 2: Belly for Bill Billy make his debut in North Carolina.
- 39:38Speaker 1: So well, we'll see about that right there. I'm I
- 39:42Speaker 1: don't know how that's gonna go because they have sixty
- 39:46Speaker 1: eight new transfers something like that, so it's a whole
- 39:50Speaker 1: shift of the program. So who knows if they're gonna
- 39:53Speaker 1: be able to buy in right away. But all right, Josh,
- 39:58Speaker 1: it's time time. I know we talked college football now,
- 40:02Speaker 1: but it's time to do what I'm always excited. I'm
- 40:05Speaker 1: always excited to do because you won two years ago
- 40:08Speaker 1: as far as the prediction predictions. I won last year
- 40:12Speaker 1: as far as predictions. So I guess I know we're
- 40:16Speaker 1: gonna keep doing this, But this is.
- 40:18Speaker 2: What's our bet. Last year, I think let's.
- 40:21Speaker 1: Do this before the season. Last year we just forgot
- 40:23Speaker 1: the bet.
- 40:24Speaker 2: What's the bet we're doing?
- 40:27Speaker 1: I say, let's do jersey.
- 40:29Speaker 2: Protest in front of the New Zoo.
- 40:32Speaker 1: Let's not do this as a kid.
- 40:36Speaker 2: Let's not do this. Fine new jersey it is?
- 40:42Speaker 1: Are we keeping it just like football? Well obviously this
- 40:45Speaker 1: is football.
- 40:45Speaker 2: So football football. Okay, loser has to buy the other
- 40:50Speaker 2: new jersey. I wish Breckon was in here, but he
- 40:52Speaker 2: wanted to hang out with Damien apparently, so yeah.
- 40:57Speaker 1: I mean, whenever we start, we could just tell him
- 40:59Speaker 1: about it and then see, yeah, see if he agrees
- 41:03Speaker 1: to it. But but yeah, let's do this, you know, Okay,
- 41:06Speaker 1: So let me put this down on writing, So predictions
- 41:10Speaker 1: quick quick.
- 41:11Speaker 2: No, I think we'll just talk about some teams like
- 41:14Speaker 2: as we go, as we go throughout.
- 41:16Speaker 1: This, let me yeah, let me let me write this down.
- 41:21Speaker 1: What's what's today's day? Oh yeah, it's September one. Yeah,
- 41:27Speaker 1: I'm writing it down, so we have we have it
- 41:29Speaker 1: in writing, and we actually have it in a recording too.
- 41:32Speaker 1: So all right, we're gonna start off with the very
- 41:37Speaker 1: first game that's going to happen Thursday night football. The
- 41:40Speaker 1: defending champs are gonna be hanging up their batter of
- 41:43Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Eagles versus the Dallas Cowboys. Cowboys after trading
- 41:47Speaker 1: away Micah Parsons Philadelphia seven and a half point favorite.
- 41:52Speaker 1: Who are you picking in this game?
- 41:56Speaker 2: Philadelphia Eagles? Brother, I just can't go nowhere else with
- 41:59Speaker 2: this side. I think Dak's gonna have a hold on
- 42:03Speaker 2: there's a lost I'm gonna get this dead wool, all right,
- 42:12Speaker 2: Well you wann o me versus the Wasp? But yeah,
- 42:18Speaker 2: I just think I think Dak's gonna have a big game.
- 42:21Speaker 2: I think, uh, the offense, the receivings there was, the
- 42:24Speaker 2: passing aspect of the game is gonna be good. But
- 42:27Speaker 2: I think for the Cowboys, but just the Eagles are
- 42:30Speaker 2: gonna be too much for them. All around. I think
- 42:32Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Eagles first game.
- 42:34Speaker 1: You know you you always I can never go up
- 42:38Speaker 1: against Dak Prescott Week one against Philly. He always towards
- 42:42Speaker 1: his Philly And I know there's gonna be the whole
- 42:46Speaker 1: Micah Parsons saying it's gonna be oh no, this team's
- 42:48Speaker 1: gonna be deflated. I think it's gonna be the other
- 42:50Speaker 1: way around. Dak Press is gonna be like, you know what,
- 42:53Speaker 1: let's pull up our chance straps, pull up our pull
- 42:56Speaker 1: up our boots, and let's let's get rocking here. And
- 42:59Speaker 1: they're gonna ups at the defending champs on the road,
- 43:02Speaker 1: even though it's a seven and a half point favorite.
- 43:04Speaker 1: Do I feel confident in this? No, not at all.
- 43:06Speaker 1: But I'm saying this because I believe in Dak Prescott
- 43:09Speaker 1: and Dak Prescott only. But as far as fantasy football,
- 43:15Speaker 1: how do you think this is gonna go? Like these
- 43:18Speaker 1: players in this game? Do you think this is gonna
- 43:19Speaker 1: be more of a high scoring game right here? Or
- 43:21Speaker 1: do you think it's gonna be a low scoring.
- 43:25Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think. I think every time you
- 43:27Speaker 2: say it's gonna be a high score and get hold up. No,
- 43:32Speaker 2: but I think I can't tell you. I really can't
- 43:38Speaker 2: tell you. I just think start CD, Start George Pickens,
- 43:42Speaker 2: Start AJ Brown, Start Saquon Barkley, start Jalen Hurts obviously,
- 43:51Speaker 2: and then Devonti Smith is flex or wide receiver two consideration. Yeah, honestly,
- 43:57Speaker 2: I started versus this Cowboys secondary and past rush right now. Yeah,
- 44:00Speaker 2: start Davonta Smith, so especially start all the Eagles you
- 44:04Speaker 2: have Dallas Goddard. If you don't have a better tight
- 44:06Speaker 2: end Dallas Goddard unless you're Fonso and and U and
- 44:11Speaker 2: one of our leagues, Like I drafted that. You do
- 44:15Speaker 2: not set me up for failure there, unless you're Fonso
- 44:17Speaker 2: in one of our leagues. I did not draft with
- 44:19Speaker 2: his fourth overall pick.
- 44:22Speaker 1: I did not know. I did not draft.
- 44:25Speaker 2: I did not drafted this team.
- 44:27Speaker 1: Yes, no, I'm not getting last. I'm not getting last
- 44:31Speaker 1: in that one.
- 44:32Speaker 2: Yeah. So yeah, but yeah, start CD start George Pickens,
- 44:36Speaker 2: Dak Prescott's consideration for a start start Jailing Hurts, Davonta Smith,
- 44:40Speaker 2: A J. Brown, Saquon Barkley.
- 44:41Speaker 1: So all right, well let's go to this Friday game
- 44:45Speaker 1: in in Brazil, Chiefs versus Chargers. I guess the Chargers
- 44:50Speaker 1: are the home team for this. Kansas City is favored
- 44:52Speaker 1: by three and a half, so pretty much a pick
- 44:54Speaker 1: him here, So Chiefs by a lot or no.
- 44:59Speaker 2: Hold on, I gon't s if they're scoring right here? Nope,
- 45:01Speaker 2: stop behind line, screamage. All right, Kansas City Chiefs. I
- 45:05Speaker 2: think the score is gonna be a cool thirty one
- 45:11Speaker 2: to twenty eight Kansas City Chiefs squall game.
- 45:15Speaker 1: Yes, scoring wow, hm hmm. I think this is going
- 45:19Speaker 1: to be low scoring right here. I think this is
- 45:21Speaker 1: gonna be so we'm.
- 45:22Speaker 2: Going thirty one to twenty eight Kansas City Chiefs.
- 45:25Speaker 1: Well, I mean compare compared to that. I think it's
- 45:27Speaker 1: gonna be like a twenty four or seventeen ball game.
- 45:31Speaker 1: That's what I think. I don't know if that's a
- 45:32Speaker 1: low scare, but I think that. I think the defenses
- 45:36Speaker 1: always Week one have an advantage.
- 45:38Speaker 2: Because like, there's it's down here, North Carolina. Man, first drive,
- 45:44Speaker 2: first drive, march down the field, damn easily. It looks smooth,
- 45:48Speaker 2: look like a smooth like.
- 45:50Speaker 1: Vintage Patriogs, vintage Patriots drive.
- 45:54Speaker 2: Nothing crazy, just marching down the field, one big throw,
- 45:58Speaker 2: running the ball.
- 45:59Speaker 1: Yep, that's that. Sounds like a Bill Belichick team right there.
- 46:02Speaker 2: But all right, had three straight runs on this drive,
- 46:05Speaker 2: by the way, like four straight runs.
- 46:08Speaker 1: Now, that's that's Bill Belichick right there. But all right,
- 46:11Speaker 1: who are you going?
- 46:12Speaker 2: Who did you pick?
- 46:14Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, no, I'm picking the Chiefs. I'm picking the Chiefs.
- 46:16Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go.
- 46:17Speaker 2: Alright, So fantasy consideration, so mahomes obviously executive worthy. I'm
- 46:23Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey. Those are the three for sure, pa Checko
- 46:29Speaker 2: flex considering. If you have a low end, low end
- 46:32Speaker 2: RB two flex consideration Isaiah Pacheco, which I still think
- 46:37Speaker 2: I have a flex put Checko is a good flex
- 46:39Speaker 2: to play on the Chargers side of Marion happens to
- 46:43Speaker 2: start and then maybe justin Herbert, depending on your quarterback situation.
- 46:50Speaker 2: I think if you have a better quarterback, yeah, but
- 46:54Speaker 2: for sure mconkee a Marion Hampton are the are the
- 46:57Speaker 2: for sure starts on the Chargers side.
- 46:59Speaker 1: I say, maybe if you're you shouldn't be desperate in
- 47:02Speaker 1: week one, but Keenan Allen, that wouldn't be too bad
- 47:05Speaker 1: of a start.
- 47:05Speaker 2: I can see that as a flex consideration. Kenny Allen's
- 47:08Speaker 2: a flex consideration. I don't think there's not a real
- 47:10Speaker 2: strong white cornerback two in Kansas City right now. So
- 47:14Speaker 2: and I'm sure le McConkie's gonna draw Trim mcduffy with
- 47:16Speaker 2: the shadow of the entire game. So Keenan Allen's gonna
- 47:19Speaker 2: get a lot of looks versus like Jalen Watson and
- 47:21Speaker 2: a couple of these other guys that we have right
- 47:23Speaker 2: now that are still trying to prove themselves. So yeah,
- 47:26Speaker 2: Keenan Allen's a flex consideration for sure.
- 47:28Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think that's everybody. But all right now,
- 47:31Speaker 1: time to get to the fan favor right here at
- 47:33Speaker 1: twelve o'clock. It's just perfect that this starts at twelve
- 47:36Speaker 1: o'clock games right here, The Bake Show versus the Atlanta
- 47:41Speaker 1: Falcons right here. Clap clap it up, bows back.
- 47:45Speaker 2: It's been a long time coming.
- 47:48Speaker 1: The Bake Show, the heisman, the fan favorite, just the
- 47:51Speaker 1: man himself, just he's just he's just that guy. Tampa Bay.
- 47:56Speaker 1: They're favored by two and a half, even though they're
- 47:58Speaker 1: on the road right here. So who's winning this game?
- 48:01Speaker 2: Josh, We're gonna stay true. It's gonna be the Heisman himself.
- 48:05Speaker 2: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, led by the Bake Show, is
- 48:08Speaker 2: gonna go out and win this football game. I think
- 48:11Speaker 2: it's gonna be one of the better football games of
- 48:13Speaker 2: the week. Though I will say that I think I
- 48:16Speaker 2: like what Atlanta has. I'm not too sold on Michael
- 48:18Speaker 2: Pennick yet. We're gonna have to see it first game out.
- 48:21Speaker 2: What can he do? Can he get Jake Lennon involved?
- 48:23Speaker 2: Can he get Kyle Pitts involved? Is b Jon Robinson
- 48:26Speaker 2: gonna have the role we expect him to have defensive
- 48:29Speaker 2: side of the ball. Are they still gonna be this
- 48:31Speaker 2: good defense even without losing a couple pieces like Grady
- 48:35Speaker 2: Jarrett and as far as the Ten Bay Buccaneers side,
- 48:38Speaker 2: I'm really excited to see this in Mecca Buca situation.
- 48:41Speaker 2: That's what I'm really is here, Broa, we are believers
- 48:50Speaker 2: in the Amica Egg Buka hype train. I will say this,
- 48:54Speaker 2: I just traded Caleb Johnson in a keeper league straight
- 48:58Speaker 2: up for Mecha Buka. What I'm just saying, what I
- 49:05Speaker 2: just did that?
- 49:06Speaker 1: What's league?
- 49:08Speaker 2: It's in a league like remember the one I joined
- 49:10Speaker 2: at work where I had to inherit that team and
- 49:13Speaker 2: I had a and I attracted. I have a whole
- 49:15Speaker 2: bunch of rookies and Jalen Hurts, A J. Brown and
- 49:17Speaker 2: Mark Andrews on it.
- 49:18Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 49:18Speaker 2: Yeah, So I just traded Caleb Johnson and mechag Buka.
- 49:23Speaker 2: My running backs are. I felt comfortable because I have
- 49:26Speaker 2: your Corey Krosskey, Merrit now So and Trey Benson on
- 49:29Speaker 2: my bench. So I'm kind of like but right now
- 49:31Speaker 2: my starters are Henderson and RJ. Harvey, Tredvon Henderson and
- 49:34Speaker 2: r J. Harvey. But my receivers are looking a little
- 49:36Speaker 2: bit better, a little bit better with a Mega Buka playing.
- 49:38Speaker 2: I mean, I have met Matthew Golden and a couple
- 49:40Speaker 2: of the guys. But right now, I got Right now,
- 49:43Speaker 2: I'm starting a J Brown, a metag Buka as my
- 49:45Speaker 2: wide receiver two and then Travis Hunter as the wide
- 49:48Speaker 2: receiver three. By the way, guys, not my drafting, not
- 49:50Speaker 2: my drafting. I had to draft all the rookie because
- 49:53Speaker 2: that's all that was available, because this is the keep
- 49:55Speaker 2: everyone you want on your team lead. But it's not
- 49:58Speaker 2: a yeah basically yeah. So so okay, let me let me
- 50:04Speaker 2: say this.
- 50:04Speaker 1: I said this whenever Bracken and I we recorded, I said,
- 50:07Speaker 1: grab a Mecca of Buka in every single league that
- 50:10Speaker 1: you have.
- 50:11Speaker 2: Hey, and I've been doing I've been trying. I've been trying.
- 50:13Speaker 1: I've been trying to. I've been trying to and I've
- 50:16Speaker 1: and Okay, so three out of the five leagues that
- 50:19Speaker 1: I'm in I'm not including Dynasty, I have a Mecha Buka.
- 50:22Speaker 1: Four out of the five leagues, I have Trayvon Henderson.
- 50:25Speaker 1: So I got stat stocks and my two rookies that
- 50:29Speaker 1: I believe in the most this year. But as far
- 50:31Speaker 1: as this game, exactly what you're saying, I just want
- 50:34Speaker 1: to see how the Tampa Bay offense looks without Liam
- 50:36Speaker 1: Cohen there. How is Bucky Irving's role Chris Godwin, I
- 50:41Speaker 1: don't it says he's going to play now, I don't
- 50:43Speaker 1: know what the hell to expect so with him, But
- 50:46Speaker 1: me mad so I still expect a Mechic Buoga to
- 50:50Speaker 1: be the number two. And so I'm ready to see
- 50:54Speaker 1: this offense right here, but even more with that Atlanta
- 50:57Speaker 1: side right here, Like you're saying, Michael Pennix, what is
- 50:59Speaker 1: going I want to happen with this? We saw towards
- 51:02Speaker 1: the very end Dijon was going off, Drake Lindon was
- 51:04Speaker 1: going off. Kyle Pitts was actually a real tight end.
- 51:07Speaker 1: So how is that gonna play out? But I'm taking
- 51:11Speaker 1: the bag show right here. I'm taking the Heisman. I'm
- 51:13Speaker 1: never going up against the Heisman himself. But all right,
- 51:17Speaker 1: this next game right here, Cincinnati Bengals at the Cleveland Browns.
- 51:21Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Cincinnati their favored, yes, by five and
- 51:24Speaker 1: a half. But let me give you a quick stat.
- 51:26Speaker 1: Zach Taylor is one and eleven in his first two
- 51:29Speaker 1: games of him being as a head coach. So the
- 51:31Speaker 1: last six years as head coach he started off one
- 51:34Speaker 1: and eleven, just a quick fact right there. So who
- 51:37Speaker 1: are you taking?
- 51:39Speaker 2: The Cleveland Browns are gonna be my pick to win
- 51:43Speaker 2: this game. And I'm not even trolling. I'm not even trolling.
- 51:45Speaker 2: I'm going to Cleveland Game one. I believe Joe Flacco
- 51:50Speaker 2: is gonna have a big first game. I think he's
- 51:51Speaker 2: gonna get everyone involved, everyone's healthy. On the offensive side
- 51:54Speaker 2: of the ball, Cedric Tillman is there, Jerry Judy, I
- 51:58Speaker 2: believe Cedric Tillman is gonna take a big step in
- 52:00Speaker 2: year two. I think his value goes a lot more
- 52:03Speaker 2: up with Joe Flacco at the helm, I can see
- 52:06Speaker 2: this workload. Drum Ford's a proven running back in this league.
- 52:09Speaker 2: He's not a top tier guy, but he gets the
- 52:11Speaker 2: job done. I'm excited to see Dylan Samson out the backfield,
- 52:14Speaker 2: especially receiving wise. On the defensive side of the ball,
- 52:17Speaker 2: That's where they win this game. The defensive side of
- 52:20Speaker 2: the ball. I think they still have this great defense
- 52:23Speaker 2: at the helm. Miles Garrett is still there, ready to
- 52:26Speaker 2: see what Mason Graham can do alongside him. I just
- 52:29Speaker 2: think they no matter what the Cincinnati Bengals do on offense.
- 52:33Speaker 2: For me, this defense right now, I do not believe
- 52:37Speaker 2: in them at all until I see it. So I'm
- 52:40Speaker 2: going with the Cleveland Browns game one my first upset
- 52:44Speaker 2: of the week, and I'm gonna go with them. And
- 52:47Speaker 2: actually I want to talk about this game. Okay, what
- 52:50Speaker 2: do we do with Quinn Shawn Judkins. He's I don't
- 52:58Speaker 2: want to drop Quinn Shawn Judge right now, So I'm like, you.
- 53:01Speaker 1: Don't put him in, ir you can't put him in either.
- 53:04Speaker 2: It's so because you drop quin Shawn Judkins and he's
- 53:07Speaker 2: signed to get picked up, picked up right away, Like,
- 53:10Speaker 2: you can't drop him.
- 53:12Speaker 1: It's just, dude, you don't like at this point. Since
- 53:16Speaker 1: he hasn't signed yet, he could he could be eligible
- 53:19Speaker 1: for the draft next year two so or well, I
- 53:25Speaker 1: think it's too late to go back to college. But
- 53:27Speaker 1: I mean he has that option there if he really
- 53:30Speaker 1: wanted to go back to Oisle State. So I don't know.
- 53:33Speaker 2: All I know the Chiefs might be looking for a
- 53:35Speaker 2: new running back coming bye week. That's all I'm hearing.
- 53:39Speaker 2: That's all I That's what I hear from my sources.
- 53:41Speaker 2: All right, pick.
- 53:42Speaker 1: Picking up Quinn Shawn Judkins and free agencies. I mean,
- 53:47Speaker 1: you can see Breshaw getting traded, but not a freaking
- 53:49Speaker 1: second round pick.
- 53:53Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, I'm going to Cleveland. Brown's baby. Nah,
- 53:57Speaker 2: I'm you think the Bengals. You think I'll pick of
- 54:00Speaker 2: Bengals week one?
- 54:01Speaker 1: I kind of figured and after I read that.
- 54:03Speaker 2: Style, as I own a lot of Bengals in fantasy,
- 54:07Speaker 2: I will say this. I directed Jamar Chase every time
- 54:09Speaker 2: I had the top three pick if he came to me,
- 54:12Speaker 2: and Chase Brown's my guy, all right. I can't believe
- 54:14Speaker 2: I traded him the dynasty still, I look back on it,
- 54:19Speaker 2: but I got Rashid Rice, so I'm okay with it.
- 54:21Speaker 2: But I don't care. I don't care not to spin
- 54:26Speaker 2: it in my heart.
- 54:28Speaker 1: But yeah, no, given the Cincinnati Bengals right here, I
- 54:34Speaker 1: think this is gonna be one of I think this
- 54:36Speaker 1: is gonna be the highest scoring game of the week
- 54:38Speaker 1: for exactly the reason that you're saying Cincinnati has no defense.
- 54:41Speaker 1: But Cincinnati is gonna be able to score the damn
- 54:43Speaker 1: ball care Niggins, Yeah, he doesn't care.
- 54:49Speaker 2: What it sounds like coming off Joe Flacco's hands.
- 54:57Speaker 1: I think maybe you could even start Joe Flacco this week. Honestly, Lee,
- 55:00Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know who'd pick up Joe Flacco.
- 55:03Speaker 1: But like something crazy happens, Maybe you start Joe Flacco.
- 55:07Speaker 2: Here, But I'll start Joe Flacco this.
- 55:10Speaker 1: We started him in Dynasty.
- 55:14Speaker 2: You know, I don't. I can't get him in Dynasty,
- 55:16Speaker 2: though I've thought about it.
- 55:16Speaker 1: Started on the Knights, start him in the Knights.
- 55:20Speaker 2: Nay, I may kiss the bride, may kiss the McBride
- 55:24Speaker 2: for a reason.
- 55:25Speaker 1: All right, yeah, you're right, you're right. You know what.
- 55:28Speaker 1: That's a perfect segue right there.
- 55:29Speaker 2: But but but but but start Jamar, Chase starts Higgins,
- 55:34Speaker 2: start Chase Brown, start Joe Burrow. Yeah, you can't really
- 55:38Speaker 2: start anything. Keep Brown's side. I don't trust that. Maybe
- 55:42Speaker 2: Jerry Judy, depending on how deep you're, Oh, Jerry Judy
- 55:44Speaker 2: is to start Jerry Duds a wide receiver to Joku
- 55:49Speaker 2: A start depending on who you have, because I still
- 55:51Speaker 2: think there are some leagues where some people have like
- 55:53Speaker 2: a McBride and djoku, or like a rock Bowers and
- 55:55Speaker 2: Jogu simloporta n joku. So if you have one of
- 55:58Speaker 2: those upper echelon guys, you start day with najoku. But
- 56:01Speaker 2: if not, start day with your joku. And then as
- 56:05Speaker 2: far as running backs. I'm gonna stay away from the
- 56:07Speaker 2: backfield see how it pans out. Until I see how
- 56:10Speaker 2: it pans out. And as far as Cedric Tillman depends
- 56:14Speaker 2: on how deep your league is, I feel like I think,
- 56:16Speaker 2: if it's like a fourteen man, I flex consideration for Cedric,
- 56:23Speaker 2: But if he's still available in your leagues, go pick
- 56:25Speaker 2: up Cedric Tillman. I will say that Cedric Tillman is
- 56:28Speaker 2: going to be a dog like. He is that good
- 56:30Speaker 2: of a player, win healthy, especially with Joe Flacco throwing
- 56:32Speaker 2: him the ball. He's done good.
- 56:35Speaker 1: Yeah, no for sure. But all right, before you ruin
- 56:37Speaker 1: my seg the way, bring up Drake May one more time.
- 56:39Speaker 1: Bring up Drake May one more time.
- 56:42Speaker 2: Drake May. You're so beautiful and glorious. I traded Dak
- 56:45Speaker 2: Prescott for you, so you better do good.
- 56:48Speaker 1: Perfect transition, l Raiders.
- 56:52Speaker 2: First, remember when I said Drake May, thank Williams. I
- 56:56Speaker 2: said Drake May was gonna better than KYLEB. Williams.
- 56:58Speaker 1: I don't know. Let's okay, who has a better stat
- 57:01Speaker 1: line this year? Passing wise? Passing wise? Drake mayor Caleb
- 57:04Speaker 1: Williams in the story then in the story, then.
- 57:11Speaker 2: Right, But who would you rather keep going?
- 57:17Speaker 1: All right, Las Vegas Raiders?
- 57:19Speaker 2: All right, all right, a fire and you needed someone
- 57:22Speaker 2: to come save your life. All I'm saying is a
- 57:27Speaker 2: lot more firefighters look like Drake May than they look
- 57:30Speaker 2: like Caleb Williams. So I'd rather have Drake May rescue
- 57:34Speaker 2: me from a fire than Caleb Williams. That's all I'm saying.
- 57:43Speaker 1: Okay, now, now let me turn this around to you.
- 57:46Speaker 1: Let me turn this around to you.
- 57:48Speaker 2: This kind of makes me think about something real quick.
- 57:50Speaker 2: All right, Okay, okay, So people ask like where were
- 57:53Speaker 2: you on nine to eleven? Like I'm gonna ask like
- 57:55Speaker 2: you one day, where were you when Michael Parsons got traded?
- 57:59Speaker 2: Like I feel like it's on that same level, like
- 58:04Speaker 2: when you knew.
- 58:13Speaker 1: How was that work? Sadly? I didn't want to work
- 58:15Speaker 1: no more.
- 58:16Speaker 2: Maybe Jerry thought he was like Cole Beasley. He saw
- 58:22Speaker 2: eleven and was like, Yo, I need to trape this guy.
- 58:26Speaker 1: I did a two first round peach with this guy. Really?
- 58:35Speaker 2: All right, well, who's the last number?
- 58:36Speaker 1: Eleven?
- 58:37Speaker 2: Cedric?
- 58:37Speaker 1: No?
- 58:39Speaker 2: What's his face? No?
- 58:41Speaker 1: It wasn't Cedric?
- 58:42Speaker 2: Was Rice Butler?
- 58:44Speaker 1: Ryce Butler was nineteen cold?
- 58:46Speaker 2: Okay?
- 58:47Speaker 1: It was Cole Beasley. Who's after that? Nobody? It was
- 58:51Speaker 1: Cole Beasley.
- 58:53Speaker 2: Okay, here him in the Ring of Honor. He might
- 58:56Speaker 2: probably get in there before Jimmy Johnson did.
- 58:58Speaker 1: But hey, hey, Jimmy Johnson's in there now. Jimmy Johnson's
- 59:02Speaker 1: officially in the Ring of Honor. Now it only took
- 59:05Speaker 1: thirty damn years. But all right, we're getting off topic here.
- 59:08Speaker 1: New England's favored by two and a half. Right here,
- 59:11Speaker 1: Vegas at New England. Who's winning this game?
- 59:15Speaker 2: Give me? How can I go any other way besides
- 59:19Speaker 2: the guy that picked to save me from a fire?
- 59:21Speaker 2: Give me the New England Patriots in this one. I
- 59:24Speaker 2: think this defense is gonna be nasty, correct, nasty defense
- 59:29Speaker 2: from the New England Patriots. Sign me up, bro, They're
- 59:32Speaker 2: gonna get the job done. Gaming in game out. Mike
- 59:34Speaker 2: Rabel is now there. There ain't no games being played
- 59:37Speaker 2: with Mike Rabel as the head coach. Mike Feeble should
- 59:39Speaker 2: have been a head coach last year. Should have been
- 59:40Speaker 2: a head coach last year. New Orleans States could have
- 59:43Speaker 2: had him last year. Many teams could have had him
- 59:45Speaker 2: last year, but no, they just decided to let him
- 59:48Speaker 2: sit as a a consultant last year. Now he's the
- 59:53Speaker 2: head coach of the New England Patriots, which Drake May
- 59:55Speaker 2: at the helm. There's a lot of question marks regarding
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: the wide receiver position. I will say this, Drake May
- 1:00:05Speaker 2: will get the job done.
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: Just let me tell you that is there.
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: He is there. I think there's a lot of question
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: marks from the offseason. But people forget Stephan Diggs before
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: he got hurt last year was like top five and
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: everything like he was. He was having a really good season.
- 1:00:20Speaker 2: And then if you look at not like yards, but
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: like in that span where he became the number one
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: when Nico Collins went out, he was pretty good. In
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: those three games, he was Stephan Diggs. He was Stephan Diggs.
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: Let's just say that. And we look at Kyle there's
- 1:00:33Speaker 2: a couple guys there that, hey, you need it. Then
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: we need to figure out who they are. But if
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: you look at this backfield right now, I think it's
- 1:00:40Speaker 2: gonna be predicated on the offensive line on if they're
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: a legit offensive line or not, because they made a
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: lot of moves for the offensive line. But Treveon Henderson
- 1:00:50Speaker 2: is gonna have a big game in this one. I
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: really do wholeheartedly believe that. On the flip side for
- 1:00:57Speaker 2: the Las Vegas Vers, I'm pretty excited to see them
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: as well. How are they gonna use Ashton gen T
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: Who's gonna get infiltrated into this offensive receiving court? Is
- 1:01:06Speaker 2: it gonna be Deontay Thornton on the outside. How is
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: Amaro Cooper gonna play into all of this? What's Jacoby
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: Myer's gonna look like out of the slot with these
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: two guys on the outside. That's something that I really
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: want to see from the Las Vegas Raiders. So I
- 1:01:17Speaker 2: know when the Chiefs are gonna whoop them come the
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: time that they play them. But when we look at
- 1:01:22Speaker 2: this as a whole, I really do think that they're
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: gonna be an okay football team. They're not gonna be
- 1:01:26Speaker 2: like this bad football team. I think they're gonna be
- 1:01:29Speaker 2: okay just regarding who they're gonna be playing around. And
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: it's gonna start by playing the New England Patriots and
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: they are gonna lose this game.
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: So I think this is gonna be one of the
- 1:01:38Speaker 1: games where it's a good game. But everybody's gonna just
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: oh or underrate this game right here, because I think
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: it's gonna go back and forth to classic head coaches
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: Mike Rabel, Pete Carroll, Gino. Smith is a more than
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: capable enough quarterback. He's a good quarterback top ten at
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: times Rock Bauers. He's obviously there, and there's some weapons
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: around him, and the offensive line is revamped. This offense
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: is definitely gonna be good for the Raiders, but it's
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: just how is this defense gonna look? So I think
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: this game could end up being in the higher twenties
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: right here, just because how explosive both of these offenses.
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: Well more because the Raiders offense is explosive and their
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: defense isn't as good as they should be. So I'm
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: and also I'm excited to see Drake May just another year.
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: Let's see his development for year two with Will Campbell
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: being there on his blind side and having someone with.
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to see some design runs for Drake
- 1:02:31Speaker 2: May this year.
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: I mean, he ran more than what rookie year Lamar Jackson,
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: Jalen Hurds.
- 1:02:37Speaker 2: He just took off like he just he was like
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: all right. No one's like.
- 1:02:43Speaker 1: Yeah, so all right, yeah, no, give me give me
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: the Patriots here in this one.
- 1:02:46Speaker 2: But all right starts and he starts.
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: Drake May, Henderson Brock.
- 1:02:52Speaker 2: Okay, Drake May. Considering who you have, I.
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: Think I'm starting Drake. If you have Drake personally, if
- 1:02:59Speaker 1: you have me, was a.
- 1:03:00Speaker 2: Late draft pick, like Drake May was a later draft,
- 1:03:03Speaker 2: but he was.
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: He's also one where it's like you're drafting him as
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: your number one quarterback because you most likely bailed on quarterback.
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: Right, I mean, he's my number two in some leagues.
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: I'm just saying, not smart people, not smart people. But
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: you know, I'm just saying, like, Drake May is gonna
- 1:03:22Speaker 2: have a big you know what, I'm gonna start over
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: Jaalen Hurts. You convince me, I'm gonna do it. I'm
- 1:03:27Speaker 2: gonna do it. I'm gonna do it.
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: Start start Jalen Hurts versus that Cowboys.
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: No, no, no no, I'm gonna show how dominant Drake
- 1:03:34Speaker 2: May is gonna be.
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: You know what, prove a point, do, do what you
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: gotta do, what you gotta do. No, but yeah, Drake May.
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: Brock Bowers, J T. Henderson, Oh, brock Bowers, for sure.
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: I think on the on the Las Vegas Raiders receiving
- 1:03:49Speaker 2: Stefan Diggs is a flex wide receiver.
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: Two Kobe Myers.
- 1:03:53Speaker 2: Jacobe Myers is a flex I want to see Deanta Thornton.
- 1:03:55Speaker 2: I think he's gonna say, I think he's gonna have
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: a big rule, yes, giving him justice. ESPN is not
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: not on my leagues. By the way, guys, if you're
- 1:04:04Speaker 2: in my leagues, he's not available. He's not available. That's
- 1:04:07Speaker 2: all I'm saying.
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: Mm hmmm, it's true. It's true. Sadly, man, I still
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: can't believe you picked up Isaac test.
- 1:04:15Speaker 2: I watched Geno Smith. Dude, dude, no, I was stashing
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: him in the waivers like I was like, no, one's
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: gonna pick him.
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: Up, yeah league, and then you picked him up in
- 1:04:24Speaker 1: the other league not even a minute later.
- 1:04:27Speaker 2: Yeah, bro, I was like, oh no, yeah, yeah, I thought.
- 1:04:33Speaker 2: But then, but what was that? I saw Geno Smith
- 1:04:39Speaker 2: target Deyonce Thornton three straight times on just bombs like
- 1:04:45Speaker 2: literally didn't even look nowhere else, just through it. I'm drafting.
- 1:04:48Speaker 2: I have that guy on my I'm taking that guy
- 1:04:51Speaker 2: every single time.
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: Yeah. No, for sure, that dude, he's he he might be.
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: His athletic profile was insane. It's like Jamison Williams.
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: I was up there with jam. Oh yeah, I was
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: about to say John Matchie John Matchiees was up there too,
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: So that's kind of like a high and low type end.
- 1:05:09Speaker 2: Dude, John Mitchie. If he never I wonder like, if
- 1:05:12Speaker 2: he didn't get sick like that first year, how he
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: would have turned out. But I don't know.
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: Well, he's in. He might make a play against Dallas.
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: He might make play against Dallas. We'll see, we'll see.
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: But all right, Miami at the Indianapolis Colts right here,
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: and I think the Colts are favored by one and
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: a half right here because they're the home team who's
- 1:05:31Speaker 1: winning this game. You're gonna do it. You're gonna do it.
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: I see you thinking about it.
- 1:05:42Speaker 2: You go first, let me think, let me ponder, because.
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: This is this is a tricky game you have, This
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: is a game you know what, you know what? Give
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: me the Miami Dolphins, just because Tyreek, every single week,
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: week one in Miami always finds a way to go
- 1:05:59Speaker 1: off to a looks like he's on all cylinders. And
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: it's September, So September Miami Dolphins have one of the
- 1:06:07Speaker 1: greatest offenses ever. You could even back that up with stats.
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: So give me the Miami Dolphins, just for that specific reason,
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: even though Indy has a good defense, and I don't
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: trust Daniel Jones.
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: You're right, I don't trust Daniel Jones either. We're going
- 1:06:22Speaker 2: with the Miami Dolphins, and I don't trust to it
- 1:06:25Speaker 2: much either, not because he's bad, and yeah, just him
- 1:06:31Speaker 2: just in general, you know, like, yeah, but I'm going
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: with the Miami Dolphins. Start Tyreek Hill, Start Davon h
- 1:06:39Speaker 2: and he's gonna play apparently, Jayleen Waddle, hey if he
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: if there's the wildest chance he sits a week one?
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: Are you starting Allie Gordon?
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: I'm starting Ollie Gordon, Okay, all Gas because Jalen Right,
- 1:06:55Speaker 1: he's not gonna play. I think he's going on ir Yeah.
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: He's not gonna be there for like six weeks, I think, yeah,
- 1:06:59Speaker 2: I think.
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: So Allie Gordon. Hey, those only three running backs, I
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: think three running backs in the past modern decade to
- 1:07:07Speaker 1: have a touchdown every fifteen carries. It was Ashton Jent,
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: it was Jamier Gibbs and Olie Gordon. So so that's
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: saying something right there. So Alli Gordon, if in this offense.
- 1:07:21Speaker 2: And then Jonathan Taylor, you're starting Tyler Warren starting Tyler Warren.
- 1:07:26Speaker 2: We got a targets, Josh Downs, Michael Pittman are flex considerations. Yeah,
- 1:07:31Speaker 2: but those are guys or do you want to wait
- 1:07:32Speaker 2: and see or do you want to wait and see?
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: I'll start Michael Pittman, But Josh Downs, I'll wait and see.
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: I'll have him on my bench.
- 1:07:39Speaker 2: Okay, but that's just Josh Downs is like Wandall Robinson esque.
- 1:07:43Speaker 1: Yeah, I definitely better. Yeah, I definitely see that. I
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: definitely see that right there.
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: And Wanda Robinson no matter what, got targeted by Daniel Jones.
- 1:07:51Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying.
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: You're right, you know what, I don't have Josh Downs
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: in any league, but I would, I would consider him
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: at my flex. But also it also depends are you
- 1:08:02Speaker 1: in a two running bag, three wide receiver, one flex,
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: two flegs. It just depends what you got. But all right,
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: this kind of boring game right here, Arizona Cardinals at
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints. Right here, Arizona is favored by
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: six and a half points. Right here, Kellen Moore's first
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: time as a head coach. Who are you picking.
- 1:08:25Speaker 2: The Arizona Cardinals? Bro, I'm not ever gonna pick that
- 1:08:28Speaker 2: dumpster fire of the New Orleans Saints. On the other side, Bro,
- 1:08:31Speaker 2: they're the only Saints. I don't like. That's all obvious.
- 1:08:34Speaker 2: They're only Saints I don't trust.
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: No, give you the Arizona Cardinals right here. You start McBride,
- 1:08:43Speaker 1: you start James Connor, You have to start Marv. You
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: have to start Marv. You kind of have to start
- 1:08:51Speaker 1: Kamara because most likely you drafted them as your RB two.
- 1:08:55Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, you're not.
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: But anyone else on that team, Chris O Lave No,
- 1:09:01Speaker 2: I'd start Christal. I'm starting Christal Love.
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: I'm starting I'd rather put him at my flex I
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: wouldn't have him. I wouldn't have him as my wide
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: receiver if possible.
- 1:09:11Speaker 2: No one else, Kamara and Lava are the only ones
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: on the other side. Like you said, we're going trade McBride,
- 1:09:21Speaker 2: James Connor, Marvin Harrison.
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: What do you expect from Marv this year in fantasy football,
- 1:09:25Speaker 1: just fantasy football related? I don't know, because I don't
- 1:09:32Speaker 1: know out of the leagues that I have, I never
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: draft or I haven't drafted Marvin any league.
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: So the only leagues I have him is I traded
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: him in Dynasty and then one of them might have
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: him in the other dynasty league, so only only that's
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: the only place I have Marvin Harrison.
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: Well, yeah, dynasty is different.
- 1:09:50Speaker 2: He's my third receiver in that he's my fourth receiver
- 1:09:53Speaker 2: in that league.
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: Yeah. Well he's getting drafted as a wide receiver too
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, he's getting drafted as a wide receiver.
- 1:09:59Speaker 1: Two about it? Fourth round pick. But all right, next
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: game right here, this is gonna be high scoring. Josh,
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: you're gonna like this. This is gonna be a bunch
- 1:10:06Speaker 1: of offense. Pittsburgh Steelers at the New York Jets right here,
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: Pittsburgh's favored by two and a half, two and a half.
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: Who are I know?
- 1:10:16Speaker 2: There is gonna go insane versus the New York Jets
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: in this game.
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: It's a revenge game. Yeah, it's a revenge game.
- 1:10:26Speaker 2: And the Steelers are healthy right now.
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: They are healthy right now.
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: I'm going with the Pittsburgh Steelers in this one. I
- 1:10:34Speaker 2: just think the New York Jets, I mean, hey, I
- 1:10:36Speaker 2: think they are gonna be better. People are getting healthier,
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: new Aaron Glenn's now there a couple better. I just
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: want to see it before I believe it, And I'm
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: gonna go with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Is gonna trust that defense.
- 1:10:50Speaker 2: They got Jenlen Ramsey now and Joey Porter playing on
- 1:10:53Speaker 2: the same team. T J. Watt, Cameron Hayward. We're waiting
- 1:10:56Speaker 2: for cavinon Hayward to fall off. Just hasn't happened yet.
- 1:10:58Speaker 2: Is this the year Alex high Smith offensive side of
- 1:11:02Speaker 2: the ball. It's ugly, but you know, I think they're
- 1:11:06Speaker 2: gonna get the job done.
- 1:11:08Speaker 1: This is definitely gonna be a highest scoring game of
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: like thirteen to six right here. So it's gonna be
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: some peak football for everybody watching. But give me the
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: Steelers right here. Aaron Rodgers revenge game is gonna be
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: two hundred yards and a touchdown. That's gonna That's gonna
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: be his revenge game right there. No, but all right,
- 1:11:26Speaker 1: something a little bit more exciting right now?
- 1:11:28Speaker 2: Are you starting? Are we starting? Anybody?
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: If you draft a DK Metcalf this year, I guess
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: you draft him.
- 1:11:36Speaker 2: I'm never starting that glorified flex option. I'm never starting that.
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: The other m Garrett Wilson, I faded.
- 1:11:45Speaker 2: Brakes breeze all hard this year, Bro.
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: You did. I got him in one league.
- 1:11:51Speaker 2: I got gar you have to start. You have to
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: start here.
- 1:11:53Speaker 1: Well that's an ugly start, that is. I'd consider him flex.
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: I faded him too, and I didn't want to. I know.
- 1:11:59Speaker 2: It's it's not that I don't trust Garrett Wilson. He
- 1:12:02Speaker 2: guys like I don't his a DP and I don't
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: and I don't trust. I just don't trust the pieces
- 1:12:06Speaker 2: around him, if that makes sense.
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: It's just him, That's all it is. It's just him
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: and Breeze Hall and that's a good luck. Yeah, I'm JAYL.
- 1:12:17Speaker 1: I don't even feel comfortable to starting Jalen Warren unless
- 1:12:20Speaker 1: your mark drafts him in the third round.
- 1:12:23Speaker 2: You have to and then draft to check O the
- 1:12:25Speaker 2: next round. Can't even trade James Connor for him because
- 1:12:28Speaker 2: he thinks the Checko's now somehow valued a book James
- 1:12:32Speaker 2: Connor because he drafted him that I dude is so mad, bro.
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know if there's any starts New York
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: Giants at the Washington Commanders right here after a NFC
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: championship game. Washington their favorite and a half.
- 1:12:54Speaker 2: So I'm ready to do it. I'm ready to do it.
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: Let's hear it? Will you pick it?
- 1:12:59Speaker 2: Give me the new York Football Giants Week one versus
- 1:13:06Speaker 2: the Washington Commanders. That that what that defensive line, what
- 1:13:21Speaker 2: is gonna have Jaden Daniels running for his life? Probably
- 1:13:24Speaker 2: the wrong guy to have running for his life.
- 1:13:26Speaker 3: But I'm I'm taking Outduel Carter, Kevon Thibodeaux, Dexter Lawrence,
- 1:13:33Speaker 3: Bryan Burns, and I'm taking Eleak Neighbors, Wandell Tyrone, Tracy,
- 1:13:41Speaker 3: Russell Wilson.
- 1:13:42Speaker 2: But I was taking the New York Giants in this
- 1:13:44Speaker 2: first game versus the Washington Commanders, go Bigger, Go Home, Boys,
- 1:13:50Speaker 2: go bigger, go home.
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: I guess you're going home.

- 1:14:00Speaker 4: you were gonna have a camp like a summer camp,
- 1:14:05Speaker 4: all right, and you had to pick between Jade and
- 1:14:07Speaker 4: Daniels and Russell Wilson to be your cap counselor, I
- 1:14:12Speaker 4: would for sure want Russell Wilson to be my camp counselor.
- 1:14:17Speaker 2: Over Jaden Daniels. I feel like he's gonna wake up
- 1:14:22Speaker 2: in the morning, long socks, socks, shorts above his knees,
- 1:14:28Speaker 2: tucked in his shirt, clipboard, just ready with good activities. Bro,
- 1:14:32Speaker 2: I really do think Russell Wilson would be a good
- 1:14:35Speaker 2: camp counselor. You'd wake you up, make you do like
- 1:14:38Speaker 2: jumping jacks. Yeah, stretching, start stretching, dude, dude, giants in
- 1:14:46Speaker 2: g yeah, Bro, he would keep it in line.
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: Bro, Well, too bad, they're not camp councilors. Are too bad.
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: They're playing football here. So yeah, give me, give me
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: Jada Daniels.
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: Right, it's all about leadership. It's all about leadership.
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: Hey, hey, you you take all the leadership you want
- 1:15:04Speaker 1: and I'll take Jaden and Daniels. That's perfectly fine. But
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: taking your giants all right, Well, starts myleak neighbors, Jaden, Daniels,
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin, Tyro.
- 1:15:17Speaker 2: I'm starting tyrone Tracy if I have him, no camp
- 1:15:19Speaker 2: scattabo right now.
- 1:15:20Speaker 1: Bill Krossky, merrit, I want to see what he does
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: week one. He's a flex Are you Are you gonna
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: flex him?
- 1:15:26Speaker 2: Are you gonna flex him?
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: Depending on what Austin Eckler, You know what I am flexing,
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: Bill Krofsky, merit. In the nights, I'm flexing him because
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: I had he got what about Austin Hurts suspended you
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: have to. You have to. Actually, you know what's funny.
- 1:15:49Speaker 2: He's like that nause and Jayden Warren here where you're like, yeah,
- 1:15:56Speaker 2: are you starting? You said Scary Terry, Right.
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to start. Scary Terry's that's pretty much it.
- 1:16:05Speaker 1: There's nobody else you really start. But all right, this
- 1:16:09Speaker 1: next game right here, which it should be two re
- 1:16:12Speaker 1: innovated offenses right here, the Carolina Panthers at the Jacksonville
- 1:16:17Speaker 1: Jaguars in Jacksonville. Jacksonville favored by three and a half
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: right here, So I think this should be a fun game.
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: The last twelve o'clock game to close it out right here,
- 1:16:26Speaker 1: This one should be fun. What are you expecting from
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: these two quarterbacks? And who's winning?
- 1:16:33Speaker 2: Who the Jacksonville Jaguars playing in Carolina? Mm, I'm not
- 1:16:43Speaker 2: like completely off of Carolina this year though, So that's like,
- 1:16:47Speaker 2: my that's the thing. I'm still gonna go Jacksonville in
- 1:16:52Speaker 2: this one. I think Jacksonville Travis Hunter is gonna be playing.
- 1:16:55Speaker 2: I think he's gonna have two offensive weapons. I think
- 1:16:57Speaker 2: Britton strains is gonna be good. I'm really kind of
- 1:17:00Speaker 2: worried about that backfield. I'm not sure how it's gonna look.
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: I think Travis t is gonna be the starter off
- 1:17:05Speaker 2: the rip off, the rip. Trevor Lawrence I hope has
- 1:17:08Speaker 2: a better year. I hope Trevor Lawrence goes back to
- 1:17:11Speaker 2: where he was supposed to be. The defense. We'll see,
- 1:17:15Speaker 2: But I'm gonna go with the Jacksonville Jaguars week one.
- 1:17:18Speaker 2: I but I do think it's gonna be a really
- 1:17:20Speaker 2: close game. It could go either way. I will say
- 1:17:21Speaker 2: that I think I think Caroline is gonna keep it competitive.
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: Yeah, give me, gim give me Liam Cohen and this
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: new Jacksonville Jaguars offense. I'm expecting big things from this
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: offense this year because we saw what Liam Liam Cohen
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: did with that Bucks offense last year. And yeah, BTJ,
- 1:17:38Speaker 1: I want to see how much Travis Hunners used on offense.
- 1:17:41Speaker 1: I just want to see who's the running back. Is
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: it gonna be Travis Etn Is it gonna be Baseil Tutten,
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: Is it gonna be Tank Bigsby, don't We don't know
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: who it's gonna be, but I'm interested in that. And
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: then even Dave Kanalis in the Carolina Panthers, how's it
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: gonna be with Bryce Young and Ted Ted looked really
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: good during the preseason. They just signed Hunter Ren for
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: back There's Rico Daldel, Tuba Hubbard in that backfield. So
- 1:18:04Speaker 1: I think this one's gonna be very interesting and this
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: would this one could be a sneaky high scoring game
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: right here. So I'm for sure starting BTJ, I'm starting TET,
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: I'm starting Tuba. Is there any other ones that I'm
- 1:18:20Speaker 1: for sure starting?
- 1:18:24Speaker 2: Are you starting Travis Hunter?
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: No? I'm not starting Travis Hunter a week one. I
- 1:18:30Speaker 1: have to see a pan out unless you have to.
- 1:18:33Speaker 2: I kind of have to start him in that one league.
- 1:18:35Speaker 2: But that's only lea I have them to be honest.
- 1:18:40Speaker 1: I yeah, I think that's pretty much it. I think so.
- 1:18:43Speaker 2: Yeah, there ain't very much all right.
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: Three o'clock games right here, Tennessee tie ends. Cam Ward's
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: first start, oh versus the Denver Broncos in Denver right
- 1:18:54Speaker 1: here Tiver's favorite.
- 1:18:59Speaker 2: Good Yeah, bro, this is like r State Week onely crap. Yeah,
- 1:19:06Speaker 2: let's give me the Denver Broncos Week one by Yeah.
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: The only thing relevant here is fantasy football. I don't
- 1:19:19Speaker 1: even know if I'm starting Calvin Ridley week one versus.
- 1:19:24Speaker 1: I mean if you have to if you have to,
- 1:19:28Speaker 1: but I think will start.
- 1:19:29Speaker 2: I think Tony Pollers, the RB two start.
- 1:19:32Speaker 1: Uh yeah, anybody else know, Broncos, Bo Nicks. I want
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: to see the RJ Harvey JK. Dobbins dynamic the first week.
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: I kind of want to see that play out. But
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: if you have to start r J, I'd start r J.
- 1:19:47Speaker 2: Same with j B in Courtland starting a good place.
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:19:51Speaker 2: Evan Ingram, Evan Ingram start, you kind of have I
- 1:19:55Speaker 2: think you might not have to start him. But if
- 1:19:57Speaker 2: you do start Ingram because.
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: He he's a so alid, he gets you a good
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: seven eight points. But yeah, I think that's pretty much
- 1:20:04Speaker 1: it right there. But all right, division right right here?
- 1:20:07Speaker 1: Sam fran versus Seattle Seahawks in Seattle and San France
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: favored by two and a half points. Right here, who's
- 1:20:13Speaker 1: one of them?
- 1:20:15Speaker 2: Give me the San Francisco forty nine ers winning this
- 1:20:18Speaker 2: football game? Ricky Pierce, All it's your time, baby, your time,

- 1:20:36Speaker 1: I guess it's Ricky Pears, all right, here. That's a
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: for sure start for you. Then CMC obviously must start
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: K nine, that's a must start. Jasen must start, you
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: have to start start.
- 1:20:51Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like Brock party some people.
- 1:20:53Speaker 2: He's the best one rock pretty bro in fantasy Dude,
- 1:20:57Speaker 2: they don't get much more.
- 1:20:58Speaker 1: Versus Seattle in Seattle Week one, we might.
- 1:21:05Speaker 2: Have a better quarterback. But if you don't Rock, perty
- 1:21:07Speaker 2: is a must start, Bro.
- 1:21:08Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, okay, okay, I can see that. Oh man, yeah,
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: I guess if you do have to start them. But
- 1:21:17Speaker 1: all right, these next three games are really interesting right here,
- 1:21:20Speaker 1: Detroit Lions at the green Bay Packers. We don't know
- 1:21:23Speaker 1: if Michael Parson is gonna play or not this one.
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: Green Bay is favored by two and a half right here,
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: the second highest over under of the week right here.
- 1:21:32Speaker 1: Who's winning this?

- 1:21:44Speaker 2: Give me the Detroit Lions to win this football game? Yep?
- 1:21:49Speaker 2: You thought I was gonna go somewhere else. Nope, not yet,
- 1:21:52Speaker 2: not yet, not yet. No, Yeah, I've already taken a
- 1:21:54Speaker 2: couple upsets in I'm not I'm not upsets, but I
- 1:21:57Speaker 2: don't think this is really an upset if the Packers win.
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: But it's just like the kind of close.
- 1:22:03Speaker 2: Give me the Detroit Lions. I think they're just they're
- 1:22:06Speaker 2: at better health right now. I don't. I still want
- 1:22:08Speaker 2: to see Matthew Golden and Jordan Love connect a little
- 1:22:10Speaker 2: bit more. Yeah, I think James and Williams gonna have
- 1:22:13Speaker 2: a big day. Am and Raw. You know you gotta
- 1:22:16Speaker 2: start and Ra Start Jamo, start Star, start your big
- 1:22:20Speaker 2: Gibbs start, Start, give him Montgomery.
- 1:22:22Speaker 1: Start j.
- 1:22:25Speaker 2: Start everything player, start him on the other side. Start
- 1:22:30Speaker 2: Jordan Love. Because you probably don't have a better quarterback.
- 1:22:32Speaker 1: Start Josh Jacobs for sure.
- 1:22:37Speaker 2: Romeo Dobbs, Romeo Dobbs. They go crazy, he may not.
- 1:22:42Speaker 2: That's the risk you play. But don't another girl man
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: tell you what to do.
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, give me Detroit right here. I thought you're
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: gonna take the upset. I'm never picking the Packers this year. Never. Never, well,
- 1:22:53Speaker 1: at least week one. I'm not gonna say never. I'm
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: trying to about Week four. Yeah, you know who I'm

- 1:23:39Speaker 1: All right. Houston Texans at the La Rams right here?
- 1:23:43Speaker 2: Why is that rabbit staring at me behind you?
- 1:23:46Speaker 1: Bro? Rabbit? Oh it's freaking Nate stuffed animal. Oh it
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: is in the back of the screen right there. Perfect.
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: I didn't even notice that. I guess Nate wanted to
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: get his stuffed animal in on the pot. But Houston
- 1:24:04Speaker 1: Texans at Ellie Rams the Rams, they are favored by
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: three and a half right here? Who's winning?
- 1:24:14Speaker 2: Shoot? You know what, I'm gonna go with the Houston
- 1:24:20Speaker 2: Texans in this one. I think Houston Texans defense is
- 1:24:23Speaker 2: gonna be pretty good. With the c J. Stroud, Nico Collins,
- 1:24:27Speaker 2: Jenden Higgins, Jylan Noel, Christian Kirk, everyone's there. I'm ready
- 1:24:30Speaker 2: to see it. The backfields if he the backfield is
- 1:24:34Speaker 2: the question mark right now. I don't know who's gonna
- 1:24:36Speaker 2: be big Chub. Chubb doesn't look look doesn't look right
- 1:24:39Speaker 2: right now. Damian Peerce is still there. But I believe
- 1:24:44Speaker 2: in that defense, and I think Nico Collins, baby, you
- 1:24:47Speaker 2: can't go wrong. On the other side. You got Pokah.
- 1:24:52Speaker 2: I don't know how Stafford's looking right now, so I'm
- 1:24:54Speaker 2: gonna lean towards Yeah, he's gonna play, but I'm gonna
- 1:24:57Speaker 2: lean towards the Houston Texans in this one, especially with
- 1:24:59Speaker 2: Derek with that with that defense, MS have a good
- 1:25:03Speaker 2: defense too. Yeah, it's gonna be a good game. It's
- 1:25:06Speaker 2: gonna be a great game.
- 1:25:07Speaker 1: I think this one's gonna be a damn great game
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: right here. But I'm gonna take the Rams right here,
- 1:25:11Speaker 1: just because Matt Stafford and McVeigh. I think it's a
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: better quarterback quarterback head coach du it right here, and
- 1:25:16Speaker 1: just I'm excited to see Davonte Adams and Pooka Nakua
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: out on the field. I'm just going to.
- 1:25:21Speaker 2: Put TSU and X wide receivers that are tall and
- 1:25:26Speaker 2: Lon Dree.
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: Well, it was Quinn Johnson then saving Williams last year.
- 1:25:33Speaker 2: Yeah number seven guy.
- 1:25:36Speaker 1: Yeah, what is saving william Oh he went to Green Bay?
- 1:25:40Speaker 1: Yeah now, but yeah, give me the Rams right here.
- 1:25:42Speaker 1: And I just think that this one is not gonna
- 1:25:45Speaker 1: be as high scoring as people think. But I think
- 1:25:47Speaker 1: the Rams are gonna close this one out. I see
- 1:25:50Speaker 1: this as being like a twenty to like seventeen ballgame
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: right here. But you start Nico Collins, you start Davonte Adams,
- 1:25:59Speaker 1: pooka Karen Williams. I think that's yeah, that's pretty much that. Yeah, yeah, no,
- 1:26:09Speaker 1: that's pretty much it. All right. These last two games
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: are here, Baltimore Ravens at Buffalo Bills AFC Divisional matchup
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: right here or rematch the highest over under of the week.
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: Buffalo is faded by one and a half right here.
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: Who's winning?
- 1:26:29Speaker 2: Give me the Buffalo Bills week one. I'm gonna take
- 1:26:31Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills Week one. I think Josh Allen's gonna
- 1:26:34Speaker 2: go go crazy. I believe I don't think his wide
- 1:26:37Speaker 2: receiver corp really improved, but I think there's more experience
- 1:26:41Speaker 2: on their side, they're getting They got more experience on
- 1:26:43Speaker 2: their side with Keon Coleman. Maybe he's gonna look a
- 1:26:47Speaker 2: little bit better, hopefully Khalil Shakir. They brought in Joshua Palmer,
- 1:26:50Speaker 2: who I think it was an underrated signing. I think
- 1:26:52Speaker 2: Joshua Palmer was a very underrated signing, especially as a
- 1:26:54Speaker 2: deep threat for this Buffalo Bills team. Also concid is
- 1:26:58Speaker 2: there the defense. James Cook got the deal done before
- 1:27:01Speaker 2: the season, so there's no worries there. As far as
- 1:27:04Speaker 2: the other side, I mean, Lamar and Derrick Henry can't
- 1:27:07Speaker 2: go wrong. I just kind of don't trust the wide receiver.
- 1:27:09Speaker 2: Course still, that's the thing. So I'm gonna, I'm gonna.
- 1:27:12Speaker 2: I'm gonna stick with the Buffalo Bills because josh Allen
- 1:27:14Speaker 2: don't need extra stuff to get to get the job done.
- 1:27:18Speaker 1: No, give me the give me the Baltimore Ravens right here.
- 1:27:21Speaker 1: And I think just because Week one and how their
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: season ended losing to the Buffalo Bills, I think they're
- 1:27:27Speaker 1: gonna have a little bit more motivation for Sunday Night football,
- 1:27:31Speaker 1: So I think it's gonna get done.
- 1:27:32Speaker 2: I mean, they both list to the Chiefs every year
- 1:27:34Speaker 2: in the playoffs doesn't help them with motivation, then I
- 1:27:37Speaker 2: just means.
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: This specific team right here, Dan, Now, but I think
- 1:27:42Speaker 1: this one's gonna be a good game. It's gonna be
- 1:27:44Speaker 1: high scoring. So you start every single guy. You start, Zay,
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: Mark Andrews, Derrick Henry obviously, Lamar obviously, Josh Allen, James Cook,
- 1:27:53Speaker 1: if you had to, khal I'm sorry, Yeah, I think
- 1:27:58Speaker 1: Shakira that would be the one that I start right there, No,
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: for sure? All right, Monday Night football right here, Minnesota
- 1:28:05Speaker 1: Vikings at the Chicago Bears. Minnesota is favored by one
- 1:28:10Speaker 1: and a half right here, new revamped Chicago Bears with
- 1:28:13Speaker 1: Ben Johnson and obviously I did plenty of weapons, plenty
- 1:28:16Speaker 1: of people during free agency, Minnesota Jj McCarthy, rookie quarterback
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: started or pretty much a rookie quarterback who's winning.
- 1:28:28Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie. I didn't hear the first team
- 1:28:32Speaker 2: Minnesota and Chicago, Loki. I want to take Chicago, but
- 1:28:41Speaker 2: then I don't want to take Chicago. I want to
- 1:28:45Speaker 2: know what I'm taking. No, I'm gonna go with the
- 1:28:53Speaker 2: Minnesota this first game. I'm gonna go with Minnesota.
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: Uh.
- 1:28:57Speaker 2: The only question Mark I really have for this team
- 1:28:59Speaker 2: is JJ mccar I just want to see it get done.
- 1:29:02Speaker 2: I don't really believe in him. Yeah, if you've listened
- 1:29:04Speaker 2: to the pod last year and the off season on
- 1:29:08Speaker 2: last offseason, you can you really know our opinions no
- 1:29:12Speaker 2: two offseasons to go or the last offseason, you know
- 1:29:15Speaker 2: JJ McCarthy, But you know our opinion is also on
- 1:29:19Speaker 2: Kevin O'Connell. So I'm gonna stick with that guy right there,
- 1:29:23Speaker 2: and I'm gonna I'm gonna go with the Minnesota Vikings
- 1:29:24Speaker 2: in this one.
- 1:29:27Speaker 1: As much as I love the Minnesota Vikings, this is
- 1:29:31Speaker 1: a bias podcast right here, and I am going to
- 1:29:34Speaker 1: go with the future goat himself, the future Patrick Mahomes
- 1:29:38Speaker 1: right here, and I'm already marking it. He's gonna have
- 1:29:40Speaker 1: a breakout year this year with the revamped offense with
- 1:29:44Speaker 1: Ben Johnson, with Roma Dunes, with DJ Moore, with Luther Burden.
- 1:29:49Speaker 1: Caleb Williams is going to show why he was the
- 1:29:51Speaker 1: number one pick last year, and he is going to
- 1:29:54Speaker 1: upset the Minnesota Vikings. And you know what, I'm gonna
- 1:29:57Speaker 1: go ahead and say this right here, Josh, this could
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: very badly right here, But Mark Caleb Williams down for
- 1:30:05Speaker 1: three hundred yards and two tutters, three hundred yards and
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: two tutters versus of Minnesota Vikings defense. And I am
- 1:30:13Speaker 1: stamping it down with conviction. Is it because I'm a
- 1:30:16Speaker 1: Calo Williams fan. Maybe, but that's not the point. The
- 1:30:20Speaker 1: Chicago Bears are going to win this ball game right here. No,
- 1:30:23Speaker 1: I'm one hundred percent confident. But fantasy football stars all
- 1:30:30Speaker 1: starts right here.
- 1:30:33Speaker 2: I believe you start. DJ Moore, Oh, start, Romo Dunes,
- 1:30:39Speaker 2: a DeAndre DeAndre Swift. I think you start. I think
- 1:30:45Speaker 2: running mm not yet, not yet. I think you probably
- 1:30:51Speaker 2: have a better option maybe, Okay, I don't know. I
- 1:30:54Speaker 2: know some people are waiting to draft Coast Loveland as
- 1:30:56Speaker 2: the number one, so I know some people have to Yeah,
- 1:30:59Speaker 2: other side of the ball. Justin Jefferson is a no
- 1:31:03Speaker 2: question against anybody in history. Aaron Jones, Aaron Jones, Jordan Mason?
- 1:31:10Speaker 2: Are you? Are you giving that Jordan Mason treatment yet?
- 1:31:15Speaker 1: I'll let Aaron Jones gets that goal at first. Honestly,
- 1:31:21Speaker 1: I'm thinking.
- 1:31:22Speaker 2: About giving it, give it as are you going to
- 1:31:24Speaker 2: give it a week?
- 1:31:26Speaker 1: There's considerations of starting both if they're if they're on
- 1:31:30Speaker 1: the same team. Then starting J, you have to start
- 1:31:33Speaker 1: t J. Are you starting Adam Thielen, new Vikings receiver?
- 1:31:38Speaker 2: No, mmm, nah, I'm not. I'm not.
- 1:31:44Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, okay, yeah, no, all right. As far as
- 1:31:50Speaker 1: our disagreements for the week. As far as predictions, I
- 1:31:53Speaker 1: have Dallas, you have Philly, you have Cleveland, I have Cincinnati,
- 1:31:57Speaker 1: you have Giants. I have Washington, you have Houston, I
- 1:32:00Speaker 1: have Rams, you have Buffalo, have Baltimore, and you have
- 1:32:04Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings and I have the Chicago Bears. So
- 1:32:07Speaker 1: it's six different picks. I think this is the most
- 1:32:10Speaker 1: that we've had in a while right here, so or
- 1:32:14Speaker 1: I mean not in a while. Just in general, what
- 1:32:16Speaker 1: do we go three and three for?
- 1:32:18Speaker 2: What? What's the tiebreaker?
- 1:32:21Speaker 1: Do you want to do you wanna do a point
- 1:32:23Speaker 1: for Monday Night football? Or would you rather pick a
- 1:32:25Speaker 1: college game? Let's let's see a close college game. Let's
- 1:32:30Speaker 1: see let's see a close college game college football? We
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: two here, I got one. You picked San Jose State
- 1:32:44Speaker 1: and I picked Texas.
- 1:32:46Speaker 2: Heck no, you pick in State and I picked Texas Tech.
- 1:32:50Speaker 2: How about that?
- 1:32:54Speaker 1: They're the only interesting one I see is Michigan versus Oklahoma,
- 1:32:59Speaker 1: and I have no idea those two. Let me see,
- 1:33:06Speaker 1: let me see, Uh, is there any other ones?
- 1:33:13Speaker 2: There is?
- 1:33:14Speaker 1: There not really any other close games. Let me see.
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: Let me go to the full college football schedulem I
- 1:33:29Speaker 1: swear there was another one. I thought A and M
- 1:33:34Speaker 1: and Notre Dame played, I know, but I'd picked Notre Dame,
- 1:33:37Speaker 1: and I think he'd picked Notre Dame.
- 1:33:38Speaker 2: Two. Yeah, I think, all right, let's let's just do
- 1:33:44Speaker 2: points for one of these games.
- 1:33:47Speaker 1: Points. Okay, Oh you want to just do you want
- 1:33:53Speaker 1: to just do the last one Monday night football?
- 1:33:57Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll pick an pick any game.
- 1:34:06Speaker 1: Points points.
- 1:34:09Speaker 2: Let's do Buffalo Baltimore. Okay, both Buffalo Baltimore. It's a
- 1:34:15Speaker 2: closed game. Yeah, okay, pretty too even lead teams. I
- 1:34:20Speaker 2: feel like, let's.
- 1:34:23Speaker 1: Go, Okay, what's your point prediction? Would it be? Yes? Twenty?
- 1:34:36Speaker 2: Let me see, I'm gonna go sixty three points?
- 1:34:40Speaker 1: Sixty three points, okay, so I said fifty two, okay,
- 1:34:48Speaker 1: sixty three, well I'll say I'll say fifty. I'll say
- 1:34:55Speaker 1: fifty three.
- 1:34:58Speaker 2: Okay, so you know how this works over under, bring
- 1:35:01Speaker 2: me down at fifty fifty nine.
- 1:35:03Speaker 1: Fifty nine, okay, yeah, you know how this works, right,
- 1:35:07Speaker 1: whoever's close.
- 1:35:08Speaker 2: Anything above fifty nine, I win. Anything below fifty three
- 1:35:12Speaker 2: you win, and whoever's closer in between wins.
- 1:35:15Speaker 1: Yeah, whoever's closer. So it's a five point.
- 1:35:17Speaker 2: So let's say.
- 1:35:19Speaker 1: What if it's if it If somehow we tie on
- 1:35:23Speaker 1: six picks and we tie on the over on the
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: over under, we'll just roll it into next week because
- 1:35:30Speaker 1: the odds of that happening is.
- 1:35:33Speaker 2: Or we canna zero. We just both walk away with
- 1:35:35Speaker 2: a tie.
- 1:35:36Speaker 1: Yeah, the odds that happening is point zero one, the
- 1:35:39Speaker 1: odds of that happening. So I don't even think we're
- 1:35:42Speaker 1: gonna get to that because I think it's gonna just
- 1:35:43Speaker 1: be a full six. Oh sweep. I'm confident, confident in
- 1:35:47Speaker 1: these picks right here.
- 1:35:48Speaker 2: But all right, champions don't got to talk. Real champions
- 1:35:52Speaker 2: will got to talk. We just make documentaries and lose
- 1:35:54Speaker 2: at the end. It's all I'm saying.
- 1:35:57Speaker 1: Hey, the Cowboys they made a documentary too, so and
- 1:36:00Speaker 1: we lose better. We lose better, were at losing. Nah,
- 1:36:06Speaker 1: that's gone to the Cowboys. Okay, Well, I think Josh
