- 1:00Speaker 1: a Tuesday. Chris, you know, I kind of laugh, at
- 1:04Speaker 1: least at myself, and I do that constantly at the
- 1:06Speaker 1: top ten in the ap pole. And the reason I
- 1:08Speaker 1: laugh about it is it's littered with teams that people
- 1:11Speaker 1: I roll. I mean, obviously nobody's gonna I roll Ohio State,
- 1:13Speaker 1: they've won a national title here recently, Georgia, you know,
- 1:17Speaker 1: but Oregon, I mean, everybody talks, Hey, this is the
- 1:19Speaker 1: year for Oregon. Everybody I rolls, it's the year for
- 1:21Speaker 1: Notre Dame I roll, Texas, IE roll Indiana. I don't
- 1:24Speaker 1: think there's a lot of IE roll in there. Miami,
- 1:26Speaker 1: not as much Texas, A and m I roll Ole
- 1:29Speaker 1: Miss Oklahoma. I bring that up because there's some really
- 1:33Speaker 1: really good teams in the top ten, top fifteen, top twenty,
- 1:37Speaker 1: but just there's we're looking for that next team to
- 1:40Speaker 1: prove they belong and wh when you say belong, that
- 1:43Speaker 1: they hoist the trophy being an Oregon A, Notre Dame,
- 1:46Speaker 1: A Texas it's been a while, Texas A and m
- 1:49Speaker 1: ole Miss Oklahoma. It's been a while. There's a lot
- 1:51Speaker 1: of teams that are spending a lot of money that
- 1:54Speaker 1: are looking for that, you know, kind of that mountaintop
- 1:56Speaker 1: performance that we have not seen from them.
- 1:59Speaker 2: Yeah, no question about it. I mean, so we'll just
- 2:02Speaker 2: take them. I mean, look, we don't know how things
- 2:06Speaker 2: are gonna come together. Let's take Notre Dames loaded on defense.
- 2:10Speaker 2: They got a really good quarterback. Do they have enough
- 2:13Speaker 2: playmakers to win that type of game? We'll see. They
- 2:18Speaker 2: certainly deserve to be mentioned among the very best. I
- 2:21Speaker 2: don't know that they mean that means that they end
- 2:23Speaker 2: up winning at all. We know that Texas is really good,
- 2:28Speaker 2: you know, you know, they had a developing, younger quarterback
- 2:35Speaker 2: with an in offensive line. Now they're better. They've got
- 2:39Speaker 2: great special teams. They get their toughest games at home.
- 2:45Speaker 2: I think it's fair to question whether they can get
- 2:48Speaker 2: it all done. But I mean, if you think about it,
- 2:50Speaker 2: it's I mean, if you don't make it to the
- 2:54Speaker 2: championship game or win it, they're gonna say, oh, well,
- 2:57Speaker 2: you can name five of these teams. I mean even
- 3:00Speaker 2: pretty much not only two of them are gonna get
- 3:03Speaker 2: to the championship games. So it's probably gonna be eye
- 3:06Speaker 2: rolls again. But the reality is, I think Notre Dame
- 3:09Speaker 2: is good. I think Texas is good. I don't know
- 3:13Speaker 2: that that I'm ready to put A and M in
- 3:15Speaker 2: our Old Miss in the category. Uh in Oregon. You know,
- 3:19Speaker 2: Oregon is is every bit as good as capable of
- 3:23Speaker 2: getting there. But I don't know that I would put
- 3:25Speaker 2: A and M or Old Miss quite in that category.
- 3:28Speaker 2: But there's certainly a team, two teams that can maybe
- 3:30Speaker 2: make the playoffs. And as we kind of found out
- 3:33Speaker 2: last year, you never know. Ole Miss has the look
- 3:37Speaker 2: they've got the quarterback that they get into the playoffs
- 3:39Speaker 2: last year that I think they were as good as Georgia. No,
- 3:43Speaker 2: and quite frankly, without spectacular play by the quarterback, they
- 3:49Speaker 2: don't win that game, but they do have that and
- 3:51Speaker 2: if they get in nobody want to play them, And
- 3:55Speaker 2: maybe that could happen too with A and M with
- 3:58Speaker 2: if Reid steps up and and makes big time plays,
- 4:01Speaker 2: because I think that's gonna be a really good defense.
- 4:04Speaker 2: So yeah, it will be fun to see. And look,
- 4:06Speaker 2: I mean, Texas Tech kind of made their way there
- 4:09Speaker 2: and they're gonna be good again, although BYU is gonna
- 4:12Speaker 2: be good. So I think what's gonna happen is is
- 4:15Speaker 2: you're gonna have teams. Maybe let's use Texas Tech as
- 4:19Speaker 2: an example. Maybe it's a BYU, maybe it's an SMU,
- 4:24Speaker 2: somebody that's gonna get into the playoffs and maybe do
- 4:28Speaker 2: pretty well in there, or maybe win again like Ole
- 4:31Speaker 2: Miss did last year beating Georgia, and all of a sudden,
- 4:34Speaker 2: there's gonna be a different profile in the eyes of fans. Hey,
- 4:40Speaker 2: look out, they're really good. And then but the big
- 4:44Speaker 2: time boys when they were gonna win it all and
- 4:47Speaker 2: all this kind of talk that they don't do it,
- 4:49Speaker 2: people are gonna always question until they do.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Chris, Let's move over to the NFL. Obviously, preseason is
- 4:56Speaker 1: going on. What's some of the storylines or teams maybe
- 4:59Speaker 1: or play it's kind of stuck out to you here
- 5:01Speaker 1: in the early going. You know, obviously it is preseason,
- 5:03Speaker 1: we take out of the context, but we've seen, you know,
- 5:06Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza with a pretty nice performance, Carson Beck has
- 5:08Speaker 1: played fairly well when he's been available, Tya Simpson in
- 5:12Speaker 1: some in some makeup time as well, just kind of
- 5:14Speaker 1: some things. You kind of been pleasantly surprised within the NFL.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I don't know about surprise, but man,
- 5:20Speaker 2: I just I love the Jeremiah love and what he's
- 5:23Speaker 2: doing thus for. And I know he's banged up a
- 5:26Speaker 2: little bit, but he's looked really good. You know. I think,
- 5:30Speaker 2: you know, we're all kind of wondering if Aaron Donald
- 5:33Speaker 2: I think he's gonna come back, it's gonna put you know,
- 5:36Speaker 2: the Rams in that position. I here's what comes out
- 5:39Speaker 2: jumps out to me. I'm there's in no order, how
- 5:43Speaker 2: good will Buffalo be? Will their defense be good enough?
- 5:46Speaker 2: It's all awful. If Josh Allen doesn't win the issue,
- 5:49Speaker 2: what does it mean? It'll mean that the defense is
- 5:52Speaker 2: not good enough. And you know, so that's gonna be
- 5:55Speaker 2: key there. And then I'm curious to see can the
- 6:00Speaker 2: Bengals do enough on defense. I'm curious to see what's
- 6:05Speaker 2: gonna happen at quarterbacks of Cleveland. Is Deshaun Watson maybe
- 6:09Speaker 2: gonna win that job? You know? I think Denver is
- 6:16Speaker 2: you could absolutely make them the favorite in the West.
- 6:19Speaker 2: I don't necessarily think it's Kansas City anymore. I think
- 6:23Speaker 2: Denver is that good. But you know what, Kansas City,
- 6:27Speaker 2: with their quarterback as good as Mahomes is, could he overtaken?
- 6:32Speaker 2: And then what about the charges? Then the NFC it's like, hey,
- 6:35Speaker 2: you know, Dallas has made some intriguing moves. What about
- 6:38Speaker 2: their death? How much better will Washington get with the
- 6:43Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels back healthy? And then you know a lot
- 6:46Speaker 2: of pressure is gonna be on Nick Sirianni and Jalen
- 6:50Speaker 2: Hurts in Philadelphia. Who's gonna win the South? I mean,
- 6:53Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you, I can flip one through four
- 6:58Speaker 2: in the NFC South and flip four with one, and
- 7:02Speaker 2: I wouldn't flip an eigh lights. I mean, I don't know,
- 7:04Speaker 2: you know, we we're You're in ire in Saints Country.
- 7:08Speaker 2: They can finish first, they can finish fourth. I don't
- 7:10Speaker 2: think there's much separating them. And then I just really
- 7:13Speaker 2: intrigued by the north. Can the Bears make that that jump?
- 7:17Speaker 2: Is that Green Bay is at Detroit? Uh? And and
- 7:20Speaker 2: then the west to me, it's just that's gonna be
- 7:23Speaker 2: a dogfight. I mean, the Rams look so good. But
- 7:26Speaker 2: let's just remind everybody how good Seattle is and will
- 7:29Speaker 2: be again. It's gonna be a lot of fun, but
- 7:32Speaker 2: a lot of question marks. I kill everybody, sit back, uh,
- 7:37Speaker 2: you know, enjoy the first four five regular season games.
- 7:44Speaker 2: Then you start to see things settle in a little bit.
- 7:47Speaker 2: You start to see who's pretty good, and then quite frankly,
- 7:50Speaker 2: it's gonna be that that middle part that game six
- 7:54Speaker 2: through like Thanksgiving weekend, and that's when you start to
- 7:57Speaker 2: see who kind of settles in and the real teams
- 8:01Speaker 2: to beat. And then then you got to have some
- 8:03Speaker 2: luck from a health standpoint, I see seasons get derilled
- 8:08Speaker 2: all the time. Some things given time.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Chris Landry on your radio, talking football, Get a bit
- 8:14Speaker 1: Landry football dot com. Chris, we got about two minutes left.
- 8:17Speaker 1: I'm seeing some more injuries are slight ones on in
- 8:20Speaker 1: San Francisco, Chris, there's all the jokes about nuclear power
- 8:23Speaker 1: plants and things going on, Chris, what is going on
- 8:26Speaker 1: in San Francisco? Sounds like they do have more injuries anybody.
- 8:29Speaker 2: I don't know. And injuries. We always studied injuries. We
- 8:35Speaker 2: always wondered if we're doing the right things from a
- 8:38Speaker 2: conditioning standpoint, or we were doing enough in the off
- 8:42Speaker 2: season or too much. But some of the injuries, it
- 8:46Speaker 2: really depends on the injury. If you have a lot
- 8:48Speaker 2: of poles and things like that, that may be applicable.
- 8:51Speaker 2: But man, some of the stuff is just we call
- 8:54Speaker 2: the buzzer's luck. I mean, it's just you just wonder
- 8:56Speaker 2: what's circling over there. It's a problem. I mean, even
- 8:59Speaker 2: the head coach and stay out of the injury fact.
- 9:01Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's and it's it's been, it's been
- 9:05Speaker 2: happening now for for a couple of years. And Ben's
- 9:09Speaker 2: over there crying in his tears hit listening them right,
- 9:15Speaker 2: it's them. It's not funny, but I mean it's just
- 9:17Speaker 2: like three years, it just they were the team and
- 9:20Speaker 2: then they just injuries got them. Injuries got them. And
- 9:24Speaker 2: now you look at him and you think, okay, are
- 9:27Speaker 2: they gonna can the partners catch him? Can can they say?
- 9:32Speaker 2: I still think they're gonna be a contender for the playoffs,
- 9:35Speaker 2: but they're looking up at Seattle and the Rams at
- 9:37Speaker 2: least the start.
