- 0:32Speaker 3: tell you something.
- 0:32Speaker 4: No, no, no.
- 0:33Speaker 3: I think this Sunday is going to be an absolute bloodbath.
- 0:36Speaker 3: You need to be able to run the football. And
- 0:38Speaker 3: speaking of blood, Mosher.
- 0:42Speaker 2: Why are you springing on me when I'm not ready?
- 0:46Speaker 2: Vitality and the Colorado Avalanche are teaming up. For Hockey
- 0:50Speaker 2: Fights Cancer Month. It's a very important month. Brett may
- 0:52Speaker 2: be laughing, but this is no laughing matter. It's very important.
- 0:55Speaker 2: We're encouraging people, the Avalanche and Vitalant, to donate blood
- 0:59Speaker 2: this month to help support Hockey Fights Cancer. Our night
- 1:01Speaker 2: is Saturday night. Everyone who donates at Vitalant in November,
- 1:06Speaker 2: you've got to sign up at Vitalant. Donate here in November.

- 1:14Speaker 2: team signed stick or a Josh Manson signed stick. So
- 1:18Speaker 2: go to Vitalant. It's Vitalant.org forward slash Hockey Fights Cancer
- 1:23Speaker 2: and donate. You're automatically entered. And over 25% of all
- 1:27Speaker 2: blood donations go directly to help cancer patients.
- 1:33Speaker 3: Guys, yes or no? Is this a trap game?
- 1:37Speaker 4: Of course it is. It's been a trap game.
- 1:39Speaker 5: And I don't know how else to describe it than this.
- 1:44Speaker 5: You're coming off the most emotional victory of the season.
- 1:48Speaker 2: Can we all agree?
- 1:50Speaker 3: Yes.
- 1:50Speaker 5: You're coming off a monumental win at home that featured
- 1:54Speaker 5: a goal line stand that put you in first place.
- 1:57Speaker 5: And it's got everybody buzzing. After this week, you have
- 2:01Speaker 5: a bye week.
- 2:02Speaker 4: So it's automatically one of those get-off moments where we
- 2:05Speaker 4: can rest.
- 2:06Speaker 5: Of course it's a trap game. This is the epitome
- 2:10Speaker 5: of a trap game. You're taking on a team that
- 2:12Speaker 5: is a middling team, but a team that went to
- 2:15Speaker 5: the playoffs last year, a team that can bite you
- 2:18Speaker 5: if you're not ready, and you might be without your
- 2:21Speaker 5: two starting safeties.
- 2:23Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that.
- 2:25Speaker 2: And the one thing that Carolina can do is throw
- 2:27Speaker 2: the football.
- 2:28Speaker 4: Sure.
- 2:29Speaker 3: The thing about this weekend and, you know, I compared
- 2:34Speaker 3: it to this in the appetizer mosh. This is just
- 2:37Speaker 3: how sports work. It's just a thing that goes through
- 2:41Speaker 3: the psyche of players, especially if you're on a good team.
- 2:45Speaker 3: When did the Avs lose their fourth regulation game last year?
- 2:49Speaker 4: January.
- 2:52Speaker 3: And do you remember right before the Olympic break they
- 2:54Speaker 3: hit a bit of a skid?
- 2:55Speaker 4: They did.
- 2:55Speaker 2: They skidded. That's correct.
- 2:57Speaker 3: The reason for that is because they played well, they
- 3:00Speaker 3: had a cushion, they saw the opening in the schedule,
- 3:03Speaker 3: and they said, you know what, let's just put it
- 3:05Speaker 3: on cruise control. drop some games that they probably shouldn't have.
- 3:08Speaker 3: But I think that's just human emotion. That's what the
- 3:12Speaker 3: Broncos are facing here. You just got through one of
- 3:15Speaker 3: the toughest openings to a schedule that you're ever going
- 3:17Speaker 3: to find. And it was a grind, man. Each one
- 3:20Speaker 3: of those games was pulling teeth. It wasn't pretty. It
- 3:23Speaker 3: wasn't comfortable. But you get through it with a 6-2
- 3:26Speaker 3: record that culminates with a goal line stand on fourth
- 3:28Speaker 3: down to take first place again in your division. You
- 3:33Speaker 3: have a bye week coming up next week. And you
- 3:36Speaker 3: play against this team that has gotten kicked around the
- 3:38Speaker 3: last couple of weeks. It would be easy to understand
- 3:42Speaker 3: a team overlooking them. But I will say this. There
- 3:46Speaker 3: is not games under Sean Payton in which the Broncos
- 3:50Speaker 3: should win that they don't. It just doesn't exist.
- 3:54Speaker 4: It hasn't.
- 3:55Speaker 3: For all the years that he's been here. whether it's
- 3:58Speaker 3: Bo Nix or Russell Wilson for that matter, if they're
- 4:00Speaker 3: supposed to win a football game, they win the football game.
- 4:02Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right about that. You know what? What makes
- 4:04Speaker 2: a good actor or actress? What makes it? They're able
- 4:08Speaker 2: to manufacture emotion, right?
- 4:10Speaker 3: If they're hot.
- 4:11Speaker 4: That's the thing I was going to say.
- 4:14Speaker 2: It's so funny.
- 4:16Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Like that.
- 4:19Speaker 4: Blank Meryl Streep. High five.
- 4:21Speaker 3: High five. That was a good one.
- 4:23Speaker 2: All right.
- 4:24Speaker 3: The point is, I mean, Brad Pitt, good actor and all,
- 4:28Speaker 3: but I mean.
- 4:28Speaker 4: What were you all thinking?
- 4:30Speaker 2: What makes a good actress?
- 4:33Speaker 3: No, I think Margot Robbie, she's Oscar-worthy. That's why I.
- 4:37Speaker 4: I think Hathaway is just when she gets into her role.
- 4:44Speaker 2: What's the one that looks like a rat? Which one
- 4:46Speaker 2: is that?
- 4:47Speaker 4: We're not demeaning people like you always do.
- 4:49Speaker 3: I said people who are hot. Don't you do that
- 4:51Speaker 3: to me.
- 4:51Speaker 2: There's one that looks like a rat. I forget.
- 4:53Speaker 4: I get her confused with Hathaway.
- 4:54Speaker 2: Anna Kendrick. Yeah, that's the one. The point is this,
- 4:57Speaker 2: is that it's not real, right? So if you're talking
- 5:01Speaker 2: about going, there's no reason to hate the Carolina Panthers.
- 5:04Speaker 2: There's no reason to dislike them. I mean, you're a pro.
- 5:06Speaker 2: You're going to play pro football. But you can't manufacture like, oh,
- 5:11Speaker 2: we really got to get these Panthers. No, I mean,
- 5:14Speaker 2: it doesn't exist. They're like milk toast, right? So, yeah,
- 5:18Speaker 2: it could very well be a trap game. You're going
- 5:20Speaker 2: to have to. go full on Michael Jordan and figure
- 5:23Speaker 2: out a way to properly motivate yourself against a team
- 5:25Speaker 2: that can throw the pig. And, you know, the motivation
- 5:28Speaker 2: should be, hey, guys, let's run the ball because they
- 5:30Speaker 2: can't stop the run.
- 5:31Speaker 3: By the way, Morgan Freeman, enough said. Smoke show.
- 5:35Speaker 2: Yeah. She's got huge tracks to land.
- 5:44Speaker 4: That Giamatti guy.
- 5:46Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. Paul Giamatti. GQ-esque. Handsome as they come.
- 5:51Speaker 4: I had a fantasy.
- 5:52Speaker 3: What did you say Paul Giamatti to me?
- 5:55Speaker 2: I'm tired of bringing stuff up. We're like Paul Giamatti.
- 5:59Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 6:00Speaker 2: I'm not doing it. I'm not doing it.
- 6:03Speaker 3: No. Steve Buscemi. Perfect example.
- 6:05Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
- 6:06Speaker 5: Hey, back to your point on, you know, how this
- 6:10Speaker 5: game is going to go and what you want to
- 6:12Speaker 5: see out of the Broncos. The advantage the Broncos have
- 6:15Speaker 5: in a game like this, and we all know it's
- 6:17Speaker 5: a trap game. They better know it's one. is that
- 6:19Speaker 5: if they're plodding through this game, if it's ugly.
- 6:23Speaker 4: They're used to it. Yeah, true.
- 6:26Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? Ain't nothing pretty.
- 6:28Speaker 4: They just win.
- 6:30Speaker 5: So I would enforce the same rules this week, if
- 6:33Speaker 5: you're a Broncos fan. Prepare for low tempo, at times
- 6:38Speaker 5: some great plays. You're going to be fearful and scared.
- 6:42Speaker 5: You're going to be moaning about the offense. You're going
- 6:44Speaker 5: to be wondering what the future holds. And then at
- 6:47Speaker 5: the end of the day, you're going to say, oh,
- 6:49Speaker 5: They won.
- 6:50Speaker 3: Yeah. Certainly feels that way.
- 6:52Speaker 2: What is that?
- 6:53Speaker 3: Shut that off immediately.
- 6:54Speaker 2: Sorry about that. I didn't mean to do that. I
- 6:56Speaker 2: have a little something cooking here.
- 7:00Speaker 3: I still, I wonder, for this weekend, just turn it off.
- 7:04Speaker 4: I am.
- 7:05Speaker 2: I am.
- 7:06Speaker 3: For this weekend, when you play against it, and I'll
- 7:08Speaker 3: remind you guys, the Panthers numbers defensively, especially in the
- 7:12Speaker 3: run game, they are skewed from playing against Tampa from
- 7:16Speaker 3: a couple of weeks ago, but It's real. Like, they
- 7:18Speaker 3: aren't good on defense, and they certainly aren't good in
- 7:21Speaker 3: the rush game. Jonah Coleman, I think if he has
- 7:25Speaker 3: a good day, that would create or provide a salve
- 7:30Speaker 3: on whatever happens here in the next few days, whether
- 7:32Speaker 3: you make a move for a running back or not.
- 7:34Speaker 3: I mean, one thing is obvious. The Broncos are in
- 7:36Speaker 3: the market. Whether they actually execute a trade or not
- 7:39Speaker 3: is a different story.
- 7:40Speaker 2: I mean, they're kicking tires at the lot. Sure they are. Yes.
- 7:43Speaker 2: They're walking around the lot, looking at options. Kicking some tires. Hey,
- 7:47Speaker 2: does this one have a sound system that I like? Yeah,
- 7:50Speaker 2: absolutely they are. It doesn't mean that they need to
- 7:52Speaker 2: buy that new car, but they're kicking tires.
- 7:55Speaker 3: But I just think people have it confused. I think
- 7:59Speaker 3: that Jonah Coleman's going to have a good day on Sunday.
- 8:01Speaker 3: I really do. But I don't think this is about Jonah.
- 8:05Speaker 3: I think this is about the others. As Vic, you
- 8:07Speaker 3: were pointing this out earlier. It's something I've mentioned in
- 8:09Speaker 3: the past. When the Broncos had J.K. Dobbins last year,
- 8:13Speaker 3: the running game was fine. Was it great? Maybe not great,
- 8:16Speaker 3: but it was fine. And then you didn't have J.K.
- 8:19Speaker 3: Dobbins when the games mattered most, and you saw the
- 8:21Speaker 3: impact of it. Like, it just created way too much
- 8:24Speaker 3: stress on everything else on that roster. My concern is
- 8:27Speaker 3: people are like, oh, we have Jonah Coleman. Guys, we're
- 8:29Speaker 3: totally okay. Okay, well, what if his hamstring blows out
- 8:32Speaker 3: in January? And you're playing playoff games with who knows
- 8:35Speaker 3: in the backfield. It's more about insurance. But I don't
- 8:40Speaker 3: have concern.
- 8:40Speaker 2: If you're trading for Derrick Henry or Jonathan Taylor, that
- 8:43Speaker 2: ain't insurance. That's your number one.
- 8:45Speaker 3: No, but then Jonah Coleman becomes the insurance.
- 8:47Speaker 4: Fine, fine. I agree. We've earmarked the Broncos as a contender, right?
- 8:53Speaker 2: That's what they are.
- 8:53Speaker 4: Obviously, yeah. Okay, if you're a contender, you have to
- 8:57Speaker 4: make sure you go.
- 8:58Speaker 5: Into December and January with all hands on deck or
- 9:01Speaker 5: as many as you can find. You don't want to
- 9:03Speaker 5: be shortchanged at any position, especially on the offensive end.
- 9:07Speaker 2: So, yeah.
- 9:08Speaker 4: If you're not going to try now, win.
- 9:11Speaker 2: I saw a quote the other day.
- 9:12Speaker 4: You're not trying to win the battle for securing as
- 9:14Speaker 4: many draft picks as possible. Oh, look at us. We
- 9:16Speaker 4: got the most draft picks. You're trying to win a championship. Correct.
- 9:19Speaker 3: By the way, I'll give you a perfect example of this.
- 9:24Speaker 3: The Broncos, how many games have they played combined without Sertan, Moss,
- 9:29Speaker 3: Brandon Jones, and Hufanga?
- 9:31Speaker 2: I mean, it's a ton, right?
- 9:32Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 9:33Speaker 3: Guess what they had to keep them afloat?
- 9:36Speaker 4: Chris Abrams drain.
- 9:38Speaker 5: They've got depth behind those players that allow them to
- 9:44Speaker 5: win these games.
- 9:45Speaker 3: We're talking about one running back looks pretty good so far.
- 9:49Speaker 3: That's the discussion. You need depth at that position.
- 9:54Speaker 2: And look, R.J.
- 9:54Speaker 3: Harvey can provide that when he's healthy again. I don't
- 9:57Speaker 3: know how long he's going to be on the shelf. Obviously,
- 9:59Speaker 3: he's got, I think, three more games to go at
- 10:01Speaker 3: a minimum, but I'm just, I'm excited about this game
- 10:08Speaker 3: this weekend. Cause I think that the offense can, can
- 10:11Speaker 3: continue to steadily climb.
- 10:14Speaker 2: Like we've seen it.
- 10:16Speaker 3: I think we can all agree far from perfect. I
- 10:19Speaker 3: don't even know if I call the offense good in
- 10:22Speaker 3: the last couple of games, but they have been, would
- 10:24Speaker 3: we all agree, better than what they were previously in
- 10:28Speaker 3: the season. The last two weeks, I think, have taken
- 10:31Speaker 3: two little baby steps forward for that offense.
- 10:33Speaker 2: That is correct. And so I guess you're inching your
- 10:36Speaker 2: way toward respectability. Yes. The question is, are they going
- 10:42Speaker 2: to get respectable at some point? You're inching your way
- 10:45Speaker 2: toward it. That's great, but that might be that You know,
- 10:49Speaker 2: you're just, you're reaching and you're reaching and you can
- 10:51Speaker 2: never really grasp. It's just, I don't know, Brett, I
- 10:55Speaker 2: don't know, but they better get kicking here pretty soon.
- 10:57Speaker 2: I mean, this is week nine of the NFL season.
- 11:00Speaker 2: You're six and two, but your offense has been puttering around,
- 11:04Speaker 2: you know, like a ship with a broken rudder, man.
- 11:07Speaker 2: You're just going in circles and you started to inch
- 11:10Speaker 2: your way toward port a little bit. Great. it's got
- 11:14Speaker 2: to get there at some point. And if they can't
- 11:15Speaker 2: do it against this Carolina defense, then I throw my
- 11:18Speaker 2: hands in the air.
- 11:19Speaker 3: I say, no, if they can't, no motion, if they
- 11:21Speaker 3: can't do it against the Carolina defense, then it's like
- 11:23Speaker 3: a must. You got to go find somebody. You got
- 11:25Speaker 3: to find somebody to help. Like I'll remind you guys
- 11:28Speaker 3: of something. There's a narrative.
- 11:29Speaker 2: So you're telling me that the rushing performance of this
- 11:33Speaker 2: team this Sunday is will be the sole determiner whether
- 11:36Speaker 2: or not they go and pull the trigger and give
- 11:39Speaker 2: a second, two, three, four, and five to go get him.
- 11:42Speaker 3: I think they should anyway, but if they struggle to
- 11:45Speaker 3: run the football, Moj, I think it's all hands on deck.
- 11:47Speaker 3: We got to do something. Now, with that in mind,
- 11:51Speaker 3: let me give you this piece of information because there
- 11:53Speaker 3: is a built-in narrative surrounding Sean Payton and his offense,
- 11:56Speaker 3: and it's this. Sean Payton refuses to run the football.
- 12:01Speaker 3: What does it matter having a running back anyway? I'll
- 12:03Speaker 3: remind you guys of the stat that I piled together
- 12:07Speaker 3: a couple days ago regarding Sean Payton's offense since he
- 12:10Speaker 3: took over in week five. Four weeks. There have been
- 12:14Speaker 3: 221 offensive plays ran in the last four weeks from
- 12:18Speaker 3: the Denver Broncos. 106 of those are runs. That's as
- 12:23Speaker 3: close to 50-50 as I think any team not named
- 12:27Speaker 3: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are going to have in the league.
- 12:30Speaker 3: He's run the football a lot, which I think is,
- 12:33Speaker 3: in Sean Payton translation, because we all know.
- 12:36Speaker 2: This, Sean Payton likes to throw it, doesn't he? Yeah,
- 12:38Speaker 2: he does.
- 12:40Speaker 3: He's actively gone to essentially a 50-50 offense since taking over,
- 12:45Speaker 3: which translation is, I'm not trusting my quarterback right now.
- 12:50Speaker 2: He's trying to prove a point here. Well, I mean, yeah,
- 12:52Speaker 2: he doesn't trust. Listen, let me back up here, Mick.
- 12:55Speaker 2: I'm sorry. When you have a Hall of Fame quarterback,
- 12:59Speaker 2: who likes to throw the ball for 5,000 yards in
- 13:02Speaker 2: a season and 42 touches. It's fun to throw the football. Yes. Hey, Brett,
- 13:08Speaker 2: if you give me one of those, I like to
- 13:09Speaker 2: throw the football too. Hey, guess what? You know why?
- 13:12Speaker 2: Because my guy can do it all day, all night,
- 13:15Speaker 2: and three times on Mondays, right?
- 13:16Speaker 4: Yep.
- 13:17Speaker 2: But he's also– so he may not trust his quarterback totally.
- 13:21Speaker 2: I dig what you're saying. He's also trying to prove
- 13:23Speaker 2: a point. That guy's, it's a message to his team.
- 13:26Speaker 2: We have to run the ball. We have no choice.
- 13:29Speaker 2: We're not, what did Herb Brooks used to say? You
- 13:33Speaker 2: don't have enough talent to win on talent alone, right?
- 13:37Speaker 2: They don't, they're not good enough to win on just
- 13:40Speaker 2: passing alone, period. End of story. They ain't good in
- 13:43Speaker 2: that regard either. You got to run the ball.
- 13:45Speaker 3: So that game's coming up this weekend. We'll get to
- 13:49Speaker 3: lay it down here in a few minutes.
- 13:50Speaker 4: No, no, no, we won't.
- 13:52Speaker 2: Yeah, we will.
- 13:53Speaker 4: It's a thing we do.
- 13:54Speaker 2: There's nothing getting laid down.
- 13:56Speaker 4: Listen, Vic, not in your world. You know, tomorrow, the Broncos....
- 14:06Speaker 2: By the way, it's called lay a clown.
- 14:08Speaker 4: Remember, we changed the name of it.
- 14:09Speaker 3: To lay a clown.
- 14:10Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 14:11Speaker 3: I don't know what his results were last week.
- 14:12Speaker 4: Well, until he wins again, it's lay a clown.
- 14:14Speaker 3: Okay, got it.
- 14:14Speaker 4: Until we have proof of life, it's lay a clown.
- 14:20Speaker 4: The Nuggets play in Mexico City tomorrow.
- 14:22Speaker 2: Yes.
- 14:24Speaker 3: Buenos dias.
- 14:25Speaker 4: It's an afternoon game. It's a 2 o'clock game in Minnesota.
- 14:27Speaker 2: Buenos dias.
- 14:29Speaker 4: Against the Pacers. Remember, they played the Pacers in the evening.
- 14:31Speaker 2: Who's doing that game? Who's doing that game?
- 14:33Speaker 4: Altitude is.
- 14:34Speaker 2: Oh, we are? Yeah.
- 14:36Speaker 4: I thought ABC was doing that game.
- 14:38Speaker 2: Me. I'm Vic tomorrow.
- 14:38Speaker 4: Oh, that's right.
- 14:39Speaker 2: You're working tomorrow.
- 14:40Speaker 3: I'm Vic tomorrow.
- 14:41Speaker 4: I got to let everybody know, you got to tune
- 14:42Speaker 4: in tomorrow. So our pregame show.
- 14:45Speaker 2: Wait, you're hosting with Richardson and Hands?
- 14:47Speaker 3: Just Richardson. Me and Jay Ray.
- 14:48Speaker 5: So Brett Kane, and I want to thank you, Brett.
- 14:52Speaker 5: It's a courtesy, and I really do admire the fact
- 14:55Speaker 5: that you're pinch-hitting for me. I'm going to my alma
- 14:58Speaker 5: mater to watch a football game, and I hate to
- 15:03Speaker 5: leave work, but the reason this all turned out this
- 15:05Speaker 5: way is because I assumed, wrongly, that an international game played.
- 15:10Speaker 4: In Mexico City would be broadcast by one of the
- 15:14Speaker 4: national outlets.
- 15:15Speaker 5: Wouldn't that make sense? In fact, I went back and
- 15:19Speaker 5: did some research on this.
- 15:21Speaker 4: Every international game we've seen so far has been broadcast
- 15:26Speaker 4: by ESPN.
- 15:27Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 15:27Speaker 4: By Amazon.
- 15:28Speaker 2: ABC. NBC.
- 15:32Speaker 4: But not this one. And I know why.
- 15:35Speaker 2: Why?
- 15:37Speaker 3: College football Saturday.
- 15:39Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's when it happened.
- 15:41Speaker 3: Yep, yep, yep, yep.
- 15:42Speaker 2: Hey, by the way, the elevation.
- 15:44Speaker 5: You think ESPN is going to say, yeah, let's just
- 15:48Speaker 5: squeeze it in.
- 15:50Speaker 4: They ain't going to do that.
- 15:51Speaker 2: Mexico City's at a higher elevation than Denver, Colorado is.
- 15:55Speaker 4: This should be advantage Nuggets all the way.
- 15:57Speaker 2: It should be.
- 15:58Speaker 5: This should be advantage Nuggets. Again, the Nuggets used to
- 16:01Speaker 5: be that team. Jason Richardson said this to me, and
- 16:04Speaker 5: you get this out of him, where opposing teams would
- 16:07Speaker 5: come into Denver, and he'd say, oh, man, they're going
- 16:10Speaker 5: to try to run us in the first quarter, be
- 16:12Speaker 5: out of breath by the end of the first. I
- 16:15Speaker 5: don't think they're doing enough of that anymore.
- 16:17Speaker 2: Yeah. Kaner, what are you going to wear? What do
- 16:20Speaker 2: you have for the pregame show?
- 16:22Speaker 4: You don't have to wear a tie anymore. You can
- 16:24Speaker 4: wear just a– it isn't Mexico City. Wear a poncho.
- 16:29Speaker 3: I'm going to go to Riker's closet.
- 16:31Speaker 2: Look, we dress the part, Vic. You can go in there. Brett,
- 16:35Speaker 2: you can wear your sweatshirt looking like a pig. We
- 16:37Speaker 2: dress the part on the hockey side, okay?
- 16:40Speaker 4: We dress the part.
- 16:41Speaker 2: Dress what part? Professional broadcasters. Oh, you call what Riker
- 16:45Speaker 2: puts together professional? Phonies.
- 16:46Speaker 4: Phonies.
- 16:49Speaker 2: No, I'm not saying that's professional. I'm saying you pretend.
- 16:54Speaker 2: You can wake up with DMACC this Sunday morning. No,
- 16:57Speaker 2: I'll take a pass on that. I don't want to
- 16:59Speaker 2: wake up next to DMACC. Christ, I'd rather be like
- 17:04Speaker 2: the rest of the day. Speed bag me.
- 17:09Speaker 3: What I meant to say is he'll get you ready
- 17:11Speaker 3: for the Denver and Carolina game with the Altitude Kickoff Show.
- 17:14Speaker 3: DMACC and I. All the hosts here on Altitude will
- 17:18Speaker 3: get things started at 9 o'clock.
- 17:19Speaker 2: Pick up next to DMACC. What a prize.
- 17:23Speaker 3: Leading up to kickoff at 11. It's all presented by
- 17:25Speaker 3: Redbird Farms. What real chicken tastes like this Sunday morning.
- 17:29Speaker 3: This Sunday morning on Altitude Sports Radio 92.5. Back after this.
- 17:33Speaker 3: If you want to win one of the brand new
- 17:36Speaker 3: Avalanche Hometown Remix jerseys, text BPX in your first and
- 17:40Speaker 3: last name to 303-504-0925. You can enter once every hour
- 17:45Speaker 3: with one winner from each show. Colorado Pride runs deep,
- 17:48Speaker 3: and so does BPX Energy's Love for the Abs. BPX Energy,
- 17:52Speaker 3: where innovation runs deep. But again, that keyword is BPX.
- 17:55Speaker 3: We'll get a winner at the end of the show.
- 17:57Speaker 3: I have one thing to say before we get into
- 17:59Speaker 3: Lay It Down.
- 18:00Speaker 2: Vic, could you make that phone sound again, please?
- 18:02Speaker 4: Nope, nope, nope. Hang on.
- 18:05Speaker 3: This is very important.
- 18:06Speaker 2: What?
- 18:07Speaker 3: In motion, we're not allowed to speak until I'm done talking. Okay.
- 18:11Speaker 3: Get a visitor during the break. the one who Mosher
- 18:15Speaker 3: affectionately calls the hillbilly. He said, I was listening this morning.
- 18:20Speaker 3: It's very interesting about Mosher yelling about not being invited yesterday.
- 18:26Speaker 3: He said, he asked Mosher, would you like to play
- 18:29Speaker 3: at Pinehurst? He goes on to say, I will pick
- 18:33Speaker 3: you up. I will take you home. Mosher says, well,
- 18:37Speaker 3: my car might be done by the time the golf
- 18:40Speaker 3: is over. He says, I'll drop you off at your car.
- 18:44Speaker 3: He offers to be a chauffeur along with playing free
- 18:48Speaker 3: golf at a nice club today. And what does Mosher
- 18:50Speaker 3: say to him?
- 18:51Speaker 4: No.
- 18:52Speaker 2: I need my car. I need my car now.
- 18:54Speaker 4: Who's the biggest flake that you know?
- 18:56Speaker 2: There's no complaints anymore. I need my car now. I
- 18:59Speaker 2: need my car. No complaints.
- 19:00Speaker 3: There's no complaints.
- 19:01Speaker 2: I need my car now. I could have played yesterday.
- 19:05Speaker 2: I need my car now.
- 19:07Speaker 4: Just saying.
- 19:08Speaker 3: You're just, even when you get offered an opportunity, you
- 19:12Speaker 3: say no.
- 19:13Speaker 2: What sound does a furnace make, Vic? I don't know
- 19:21Speaker 2: if that's my furnace, though.
- 19:23Speaker 3: I don't think it is.
- 19:24Speaker 2: What is it?
- 19:26Speaker 4: My stomach? I don't know what it is.
- 19:31Speaker 3: All right, so here's what happens. Mosher every week.
- 19:36Speaker 4: That is really Mosher's stomach.
- 19:38Speaker 3: Mosier every week picks four games across college football in
- 19:41Speaker 3: the NFL. And if he goes at least 500, he
- 19:44Speaker 3: gets his music, which is rats Lay It Down. If
- 19:46Speaker 3: he does not get that, he gets music that we
- 19:48Speaker 3: choose for him. Last week, it was not a great
- 19:52Speaker 3: week for Moj. So we played the game of Lay
- 19:55Speaker 3: It Clown.
- 19:56Speaker 2: I went 4-0 a couple of weeks ago, and that was...
- 19:59Speaker 2: Not last week.
- 20:00Speaker 3: So I don't track these on purpose. I like to
- 20:03Speaker 3: be surprised in the moments. We always do a recap
- 20:05Speaker 3: to see what music he's going to get. Let's listen.
- 20:09Speaker 2: I think SMU's the real deal. Syracuse lost four straight
- 20:13Speaker 2: ACC games before they finally got a win. SMU is
- 20:16Speaker 2: minus nine and a half on the road at the Orange,
- 20:18Speaker 2: and they are going to stomp inside that carrier dome.
- 20:21Speaker 2: So give me SMU minus nine and a half and
- 20:24Speaker 2: lay it down all day. Cincinnati coming off a huge
- 20:29Speaker 2: win against Texas Tech. And the Bearcats are getting six
- 20:33Speaker 2: and a half at home against Utah. This might be
- 20:36Speaker 2: the week that Utah gets upset. Certainly this is the
- 20:39Speaker 2: week that Cincinnati keeps it tight against the running Utes
- 20:42Speaker 2: of Utah. So give me the Bearcats plus six and
- 20:44Speaker 2: a half at home and let's hope to God they
- 20:47Speaker 2: win straight up. But I'll take Washington and Philadelphia. Neither
- 20:52Speaker 2: team can score the football. This Tanner McKee kid at
- 20:55Speaker 2: quarterback stinks. Just take the under in that game. It's
- 20:57Speaker 2: 41 and a half. I'll take the under. Lay it down.
- 21:02Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills coming off a bye week. Home against Baltimore.
- 21:06Speaker 2: Minus three and a half. I'll take Buffalo minus three
- 21:09Speaker 2: and a half at home against Baltimore. So lay, lay,
- 21:11Speaker 2: lay your down.
- 21:12Speaker 4: Take the handoff.
- 21:13Speaker 2: Allen looks.
- 21:15Speaker 4: He throws.
- 21:16Speaker 2: Slipping to the end zone. Touchdown, Dalton Kincaid. Perfectly placed
- 21:21Speaker 2: by Josh Allen.
- 21:23Speaker 4: Kick from Bass.
- 21:24Speaker 2: 36-10. And he gets to two and two.
- 21:30Speaker 3: Why were you reacting like you were losing?
- 21:32Speaker 2: Yeah, because those college football picks were so bad. So bad.
- 21:37Speaker 3: So you went two and two.
- 21:38Speaker 4: Two and two. 500, that's a tie.
- 21:41Speaker 2: Yeah, but we made the proclamation when you guys decided
- 21:46Speaker 2: to do it. No, I agree.
- 21:47Speaker 3: Three and one's hard to do, man.
- 21:50Speaker 4: Two and two's been the rule all year, Vic. This
- 21:52Speaker 4: is revisionist.
- 21:53Speaker 2: History, Victor. Come on.
- 21:54Speaker 4: Okay, so you guys want to celebrate ties?
- 21:57Speaker 2: Go ahead. Knock yourself out.
- 21:59Speaker 3: Technically, you lose the vig on it, but it's not
- 22:01Speaker 3: a big deal. Two and two is not bad.
- 22:03Speaker 2: Mosher. Hey, low standards.
- 22:05Speaker 4: You guys like them?
- 22:06Speaker 2: Do it. Fire away.
- 22:08Speaker 3: That means Mosher gets his music. So everybody, Vic, try
- 22:12Speaker 3: not to chip your tooth on your tongue or whatever
- 22:15Speaker 3: you said.
- 22:16Speaker 2: Let's do it.
- 22:37Speaker 3: Vic, I mean, to be fair, Vic, we got to
- 22:41Speaker 3: let them have it every once in a while. Like,
- 22:42Speaker 3: it keeps them going.
- 22:44Speaker 2: All right, we got two NFL and two college games
- 22:46Speaker 2: this week. Let me start off in, I don't speak
- 22:50Speaker 2: Spanish that well. Who speaks Spanish well? Nelly, you got
- 22:53Speaker 2: some Spanish, right?
- 22:54Speaker 3: Buenos dias.
- 22:55Speaker 2: Claro que si, Moser. Okay, well, there's a football game
- 22:58Speaker 2: going on in Madrid, Spain. I was there. I was
- 23:01Speaker 2: in Madrid in February. Beautiful city. Beautiful city, Madrid. The
- 23:06Speaker 2: Bengals take it on the Falcons in Madrid. Do you
- 23:09Speaker 2: guys realize what Joe Burrow did last week?
- 23:12Speaker 3: Threw for 500 yards?
- 23:13Speaker 2: Yeah, and counted for six touchdowns? Dude, incidentally, dig this.
- 23:20Speaker 2: Tee Higgins is now, he's playing better than Jamar Chase,
- 23:23Speaker 2: and Jamar Chase is playing awesome. So what does that
- 23:25Speaker 2: mean Tee Higgins is doing? He's playing awesome. He's going
- 23:28Speaker 2: insane is what he is. Dig this. Joe Burrow's quarterback
- 23:33Speaker 2: rating with Tee Higgins this year is 132.3, just on
- 23:37Speaker 2: their connections. With Jamar Chase, it's 113.6. They're both still awesome.
- 23:43Speaker 2: Here's the thing. Atlanta's cornerbacks right now, they're dealing with
- 23:46Speaker 2: some serious injuries. Burrow could put up another 500 yards
- 23:49Speaker 2: of offense this week in Madrid, Spain. Everybody's going to
- 23:52Speaker 2: be watching. Give me the Bengals. Minus three and a
- 23:55Speaker 2: half in España.
- 23:56Speaker 1: And let it go.
- 23:57Speaker 5: Let it go.
- 23:58Speaker 1: Let it go.
- 24:04Speaker 2: Okay. Brett, you're not going to like this, but I do.
- 24:08Speaker 2: I like the Motor City Kitties. Minus five and a
- 24:10Speaker 2: half at Miami. I really do.
- 24:12Speaker 3: It's six and a half. Don't you try and sneak
- 24:14Speaker 3: that point in there. I got them at five and
- 24:15Speaker 3: a half.
- 24:15Speaker 4: No, it's six and a half.
- 24:16Speaker 2: You opened at four and a half.
- 24:17Speaker 3: This is the live line. It's six and a half points.
- 24:20Speaker 4: You can't just throw your own. You can't make up
- 24:22Speaker 4: a number, Moj. It's not how we're doing it.
- 24:25Speaker 2: These two teams have not played in four years. 2022,
- 24:28Speaker 2: but when they did last play in 2022, the Dolphins
- 24:31Speaker 2: got them. Here's one thing I do know about my
- 24:33Speaker 2: adopted Lions. They got long memories. Actually, they don't give
- 24:37Speaker 2: a rat's rip. Nonetheless, they're averaging 400 yards per... They're
- 24:42Speaker 2: averaging 400 yards per game. They're averaging about 30 points
- 24:46Speaker 2: per game, the Detroit Lions are. There's no possible way
- 24:50Speaker 2: the Miami Dolphins, who are playing better football, but there's
- 24:52Speaker 2: no way they can keep up. I don't care if
- 24:55Speaker 2: this game is played on the moon. There's no way
- 24:56Speaker 2: they can keep up. So give me the Motor City
- 24:58Speaker 2: Kitties minus whatever, six and a half. That ain't even enough.
- 25:02Speaker 2: It's going to be 10. Give me the Motor City
- 25:04Speaker 2: Kitties minus six and a half and lay it down.
- 25:06Speaker 2: Lay it down. I'm going to.
- 25:12Speaker 5: I can't believe we're giving this guy his music after
- 25:15Speaker 5: a 500-week.
- 25:15Speaker 2: It's just so ridiculous. You guys want to talk about
- 25:20Speaker 2: college football playoff games? You've got one this weekend, and
- 25:23Speaker 2: it is a big one. A big one in Baton Rouge.
- 25:27Speaker 2: Alabama's on the road at LSU, and let me tell
- 25:30Speaker 2: you something. The tide ain't that good. Both teams are 6-2,
- 25:34Speaker 2: and if either team loses this game, I'm telling you
- 25:37Speaker 2: right now, the playoff is out. Every win matters for
- 25:41Speaker 2: these teams. LSU is minus five and a half at
- 25:44Speaker 2: home at Tiger Stadium. No margin for error, but Sam Leavitt, Brett,
- 25:48Speaker 2: he's really playing much better football. He was throwing picks
- 25:51Speaker 2: early in the year and so on and so forth.
- 25:52Speaker 2: His last two games, zero picks thrown. He's second in
- 25:57Speaker 2: passing at over almost 2,200 yards, second in touchdowns with
- 26:01Speaker 2: 17 right now. They're averaging 510 yards per game offensively.
- 26:07Speaker 2: The Tigers are. So take Lane Kiffin, take Tiger Stadium,
- 26:11Speaker 2: take big old Mike, the mascot, right? Feed him a
- 26:16Speaker 2: big chunk of steak or deer meat or whatever it
- 26:18Speaker 2: is you feed a tiger who's in captivity, and you
- 26:21Speaker 2: lay it down.
- 26:21Speaker 6: Lay it down.
- 26:25Speaker 4: I don't know what the heck.
- 26:27Speaker 3: May I?
- 26:27Speaker 2: Yeah, Brett, you got a Brett Cohen lock of the week?
- 26:32Speaker 3: So here's the thing. I'm going out on a limb here, okay?
- 26:35Speaker 3: This is me. I'm on an island. I don't know
- 26:37Speaker 3: how many people are going to be with me on this.
- 26:40Speaker 3: I am not a believer in UCLA despite their unbeaten record.
- 26:43Speaker 3: They have played nobody. They don't score. The over-under for
- 26:47Speaker 3: their game against Minnesota in Minnesota is 38 and a half.
- 26:52Speaker 3: Minnesota is getting five and a half points at home.
- 26:56Speaker 3: Let me tell you what Minnesota's done at home this
- 26:58Speaker 3: year in the last few weeks. They beat Iowa 13
- 27:00Speaker 3: to 10. They beat Michigan 20-14. They beat Washington 27-24.
- 27:05Speaker 3: This isn't a pretty team like UCLA is not a
- 27:09Speaker 3: pretty team. When they play at home, they play well.
- 27:11Speaker 3: Just last week, remember, they were 19 seconds away after
- 27:14Speaker 3: hitting a 60-yard field goal from beating Indiana in Indiana.
- 27:18Speaker 2: Yes, they were.
- 27:19Speaker 3: This team's a lot better than people think, and I
- 27:21Speaker 3: don't think that UCLA is all that good despite Nate
- 27:23Speaker 3: no record. It's only 5.5 points, but neither team can score.
- 27:28Speaker 3: Give me the Gophers plus five and a half.
- 27:32Speaker 2: Lay it down!
- 27:36Speaker 3: Is there an unsolicited Vic pick?
- 27:38Speaker 5: Is anyone touching the game? I'm going to attend. Is
- 27:41Speaker 5: anybody touching the game?
- 27:42Speaker 2: You know what? The Irish are a favorite at home, bro.
- 27:47Speaker 2: Isn't it shocking to you? It's the number one team
- 27:49Speaker 2: in the country.
- 27:50Speaker 4: Even before the news of.
- 27:53Speaker 5: Malachi Tony being out, even before that news, the number
- 27:57Speaker 5: 11 team Was a five and a half point favorite
- 28:00Speaker 5: over the number one team in the country.
- 28:03Speaker 4: Think about that for a second. Think about that.
- 28:07Speaker 5: Just absorb that information for a second. This game scares
- 28:14Speaker 5: the living hell out of me. I don't have the
- 28:17Speaker 5: emotional capacity or the logical capacity to sit here and
- 28:21Speaker 5: tell you anything. In fact, I fully expect to be
- 28:25Speaker 5: completely gone halfway through the game with no knowledge of
- 28:30Speaker 5: what's happening on the field.
- 28:31Speaker 4: That's my hope and dream.
- 28:33Speaker 2: Are you going to wind it up? You and your
- 28:34Speaker 2: boys going to have a little wineski?
- 28:37Speaker 4: Dude, I just tell you, just take back the hands
- 28:40Speaker 4: of time.
- 28:40Speaker 5: 38 years ago, number one Miami came into South Bend,
- 28:45Speaker 5: and the Irish escaped with a one-point victory. It was
- 28:47Speaker 5: one of the greatest college football games I'd ever witnessed.
- 28:50Speaker 5: And if I get a chance to see anything close
- 28:52Speaker 5: to that, anything that resembles that, I will leave South
- 28:55Speaker 5: Bend a happy man.
- 28:56Speaker 2: So are you picking Notre Dame?
- 28:59Speaker 4: I am picking crap because I don't know what's going
- 29:01Speaker 4: to happen.
- 29:02Speaker 3: I'm going to say you are picking Notre Dame as
- 29:03Speaker 3: our unsolicited Vic pick.
- 29:04Speaker 4: It's a me.
- 29:05Speaker 3: It's a me.
- 29:08Speaker 2: Okay, final one. Hey, who's the number six team in
- 29:11Speaker 2: the country? Number six. Take a guess.
- 29:14Speaker 5: It's whoever's after Alabama because Alabama's five.
- 29:19Speaker 4: Number six?
- 29:19Speaker 2: Yeah, six comes after five. Good call, Vic. Good job.
- 29:26Speaker 2: Don't look now. Don't look now. But it's the Kentucky Wildcats.
- 29:30Speaker 3: Did you know that?
- 29:31Speaker 2: Kentucky is 7-1, bro. I love that coach. I do, too.
- 29:36Speaker 2: They've got some quality wins so far this season. Listen, man.
- 29:40Speaker 2: Tennessee can't score the football in the SEC. In five
- 29:44Speaker 2: SEC games, they've scored a total of 13 touchdowns, and
- 29:48Speaker 2: half of those came in two games. They can't score
- 29:50Speaker 2: the football. Now, they're at home, but Kentucky is getting 6.5
- 29:54Speaker 2: on the road at Tennessee. C.J. Baxter and Jason Patterson
- 29:58Speaker 2: are running the ball like crazy for the Wildcats. Kenny
- 30:01Speaker 2: Minchie's throwing the ball like crazy for the Wildcats. I'm
- 30:04Speaker 2: telling you right now, I really like Kentucky. They are
- 30:08Speaker 2: a good football program. Yes, they are. They may be
- 30:11Speaker 2: flying under the radar a little bit, but they can
- 30:15Speaker 2: go to Knoxville and get the dub straight up. You
- 30:18Speaker 2: lost it there.
- 30:20Speaker 4: You saw it reset, didn't you?
- 30:24Speaker 2: What's a song about Kentucky? What do they play at
- 30:29Speaker 2: the Derby? Any song about Jack Daniels? Yeah, you know
- 30:33Speaker 2: what I'm going to do? I'm going to go get
- 30:35Speaker 2: a double fist and two giant bottles of Jack and say,
- 30:39Speaker 2: give me the Wildcats plus six and a half and
- 30:43Speaker 2: ring it down.
- 30:46Speaker 4: Save me a seat at the Grammys.
- 30:48Speaker 3: There you go. All right, there's Mosier's picks. We'll get
- 30:52Speaker 3: a recap next Friday and see if he gets his
- 30:55Speaker 3: music or if he's going to be a clown. It's
- 30:59Speaker 3: one of the two. Text us anytime. Shop Mazda text line.
- 31:03Speaker 3: One price, one person, one hour.
- 31:04Speaker 4: 303-504-0925.
- 31:05Speaker 3: I'm all about cats this weekend.
- 31:10Speaker 6: Bengals, right?
- 31:12Speaker 4: Tigers, right? Bengals, right?
- 31:15Speaker 2: Kentucky Wildcats.
- 31:16Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 31:17Speaker 2: LSU Tigers and a kitty, kitty, kitty.
- 31:19Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 31:19Speaker 2: And Detroit Lions.
- 31:21Speaker 4: Can I make one other?
- 31:22Speaker 2: I'm all about kitty cats this weekend, man. All.
- 31:27Speaker 5: Can I make one other claim? about the game I'm
- 31:29Speaker 5: going to be attending. Who is on the Miami sidelines
- 31:33Speaker 5: of every freaking game?
- 31:35Speaker 2: Michael Irvin. Michael Irvin.
- 31:38Speaker 4: Your boy's going to be on the ND sidelines for
- 31:41Speaker 4: this one.
- 31:42Speaker 3: Can you do what Michael Irvin does on the Notre
- 31:45Speaker 3: Dame side? Can you basically get into a doggy position
- 31:49Speaker 3: and bark? Yes, bark. Have sweat profusely dripping off your face.
- 31:55Speaker 3: Scream to the high heavens.
- 31:57Speaker 5: Grab players as they're walking off the field. I'm sure
- 32:00Speaker 5: that'll go over really well.
- 32:01Speaker 2: Take off your belt and just find a nearby wall
- 32:04Speaker 2: and start smacking it with your belt. I promise you this.
- 32:07Speaker 5: If Notre Dame wins, I will mimic the Michael Irvin
- 32:11Speaker 5: belt thing.
- 32:11Speaker 2: You will. I promise you. You got to get it
- 32:14Speaker 2: on video. You got to get it on video.
- 32:16Speaker 4: Oh, that's such a great idea.
- 32:18Speaker 5: Nelly, remind me and text me because I might not
- 32:20Speaker 5: be in the moment.
- 32:22Speaker 2: By the way, Jim Beam is Kentucky. Apparently, Jack Daniels
- 32:25Speaker 2: is Tennessee. Either way.
- 32:27Speaker 4: Doesn't matter.
- 32:27Speaker 3: Jack Daniels, Tennessee whiskey? Did that give it away?
- 32:30Speaker 2: Yeah, that gave it away. Yeah. That's a pretty good
- 32:34Speaker 2: indication there, Brett.
- 32:34Speaker 3: Just say bourbon.
- 32:36Speaker 2: Bourbon is Kentucky. Get some bourbon. 303-504-0925.
- 32:39Speaker 3: Drunk takes one final look at the games this week
- 32:41Speaker 3: and next. It's a Bud Light Football Friday. Bud Light,
- 32:43Speaker 3: the official beer sponsor of the Denver Broncos. Remember to
- 32:46Speaker 3: enjoy responsibly. We'll get to.
- 32:49Speaker 3: Drunk takes in just a moment. And, Vic, I can't
- 32:51Speaker 3: get it out of my head now. I want you
- 32:52Speaker 3: to look. I want you on the sideline at Notre
- 32:55Speaker 3: Dame going, rawr!
- 32:58Speaker 2: I just packed a belt.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Did you?
- 33:00Speaker 2: Just for that specific reason? I can't wait for that picture.
- 33:03Speaker 2: If it happens.
- 33:04Speaker 4: I'm nervous as hell. But if it happens, I'm going
- 33:07Speaker 4: to pull that off.
- 33:07Speaker 5: I'm going to do everything Michael Irvin does except the you-know-what.
- 33:16Speaker 4: I'm going to do it all.
- 33:16Speaker 2: Yes.
- 33:17Speaker 4: Yes.
- 33:19Speaker 3: Um, so with a few minutes here again, guys, you
- 33:22Speaker 3: got this weekend coming up in which it's, it has
- 33:26Speaker 3: a trap gamey feel to the Broncos game. Um, I
- 33:30Speaker 3: still believe that the Broncos are disciplined enough and their
- 33:33Speaker 3: head coach is very, very good in situations like this
- 33:37Speaker 3: of not allowing the overlooking of an opponent, just because
- 33:42Speaker 3: you got a bye week coming up and you're, you're
- 33:44Speaker 3: coming off an emotional win. I also don't think that
- 33:47Speaker 3: this game is going to be easy. And do you
- 33:49Speaker 3: know who doesn't either?
- 33:51Speaker 4: Vegas.
- 33:52Speaker 3: They got this at a two and a half point
- 33:54Speaker 3: spread in the game this weekend, which I would have
- 33:58Speaker 3: thought this game would feel a lot more like a
- 34:02Speaker 3: five and a half to six point spread.
- 34:05Speaker 4: What makes you think that the Broncos are? are going
- 34:08Speaker 4: to put big numbers.
- 34:09Speaker 3: On the building.
- 34:10Speaker 2: Because they're supposedly a better football team.
- 34:12Speaker 5: Yeah, but a better football team can win by one
- 34:15Speaker 5: or by five. I mean, at the end of the day,
- 34:18Speaker 5: they'll figure out how to win. But we've already seen
- 34:20Speaker 5: the proof. I mean, Vegas knows what we know. Vegas
- 34:23Speaker 5: sees what we see. This team wins, but they don't
- 34:27Speaker 5: win by 20. They don't do that.
- 34:31Speaker 2: Very rarely do they do that.
- 34:34Speaker 3: They're just, you know, It's one more example of, and
- 34:39Speaker 3: the other test here, I know the Broncos have been
- 34:42Speaker 3: good with Sean Payton under this. Going and playing that
- 34:45Speaker 3: early game on the East Coast for West Coast teams
- 34:49Speaker 3: can be a lot different. And it makes a lot
- 34:53Speaker 3: of West Coast teams that do that struggle with it.
- 34:55Speaker 3: The Broncos have been okay in that category. But I
- 34:59Speaker 3: am just... The Carolina Panthers are so difficult to get
- 35:02Speaker 3: a finger on on what their team is.
- 35:05Speaker 2: Yeah, they're offensively pretty good, Brett. Let me explain. They
- 35:08Speaker 2: fired Jero Evero, right? So, their D coordinator, gone. Yeah.
- 35:14Speaker 2: And so... I don't know how much you can look
- 35:16Speaker 2: at the past film and say, okay, this is what
- 35:18Speaker 2: the Carolina Panthers do defensively, and we're going to exploit
- 35:21Speaker 2: that if we're the Denver Broncos. Because I'm guessing they're
- 35:24Speaker 2: going to change some things up this week. That's why
- 35:26Speaker 2: you fire a D coordinator. You don't fire him and say, hey, guys,
- 35:28Speaker 2: let's just keep doing what we've been doing. So I
- 35:30Speaker 2: don't know how they're going to look defensively. Are they
- 35:33Speaker 2: going to be a 4-3 team instead of a 3-4 team?
- 35:36Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 35:36Speaker 4: You want to hear something crazy, Moshe?
- 35:38Speaker 2: Yeah, please.
- 35:38Speaker 4: About this game?
- 35:39Speaker 2: I'd love to.
- 35:39Speaker 5: I'm just going to throw some numbers at you guys
- 35:41Speaker 5: about this game because, you know, Carolina fired its defensive coordinator.
- 35:44Speaker 4: That's their weak point, right? Which team ranks higher in
- 35:50Speaker 4: yards allowed per game?
- 35:53Speaker 2: Probably the Broncos.
- 35:56Speaker 5: Carolina is 23rd. The Broncos are 25th. Which team is
- 36:01Speaker 5: better in points per game?
- 36:05Speaker 3: That would have to be Denver. That's a difference. The
- 36:09Speaker 3: first game of the season, the Panthers gave up 59.
- 36:12Speaker 2: The Panthers give up the 5th most points in a
- 36:14Speaker 2: game in the league.
- 36:17Speaker 5: If you look at all of the metrics here, Carolina
- 36:20Speaker 5: is better in most of the yards, all those other
- 36:25Speaker 5: metrics except the result, the points. The points, that's where
- 36:30Speaker 5: the Broncos are better. And where they get it done,
- 36:32Speaker 5: the Broncos.
- 36:33Speaker 4: Is in the red zone. Bend but don't break. In
- 36:37Speaker 4: the red zone.
- 36:38Speaker 5: You get to the red zone and you see a
- 36:40Speaker 5: lot of what you saw in the final moments against
- 36:42Speaker 5: Kansas City. And the other place where the Broncos are
- 36:45Speaker 5: better is.
- 36:47Speaker 2: Saks, 23-11.
- 36:51Speaker 5: They make the game-changing plays more than Carolina does.
- 36:54Speaker 2: Yes.
- 36:55Speaker 4: Is what I'm trying to say. That is correct.
- 36:56Speaker 2: Carolina is ranked 30th against the run. I'm telling you,
- 37:01Speaker 2: if you can't run the ball against these guys, then
- 37:03Speaker 2: you just simply can't run it. Brett, if they don't
- 37:06Speaker 2: crack like 130, talking about the Broncos, because the Panthers
- 37:11Speaker 2: give up. I'm going to allow a little wiggle room here.
- 37:13Speaker 2: They give up over 140 per game. If you don't
- 37:15Speaker 2: crack 120, 130 against these guys, you know what? Do
- 37:17Speaker 2: a trade. Blow it all up offensively. I mean, whatever.
- 37:24Speaker 2: You should be able to run the ball in Charlotte.
- 37:27Speaker 3: Theoretically. Theoretically. But the Broncos offense does not operate under
- 37:33Speaker 3: those types of things. Now, I'll tell you what a
- 37:35Speaker 3: tried and true is. You want to hear tried and true?
- 37:38Speaker 3: The Broncos have been historically great over the last two
- 37:41Speaker 3: years in one category, which is?
- 37:44Speaker 4: Sacks.
- 37:45Speaker 3: Sacks and pressures. That's what they do. The Carolina Panthers
- 37:49Speaker 3: have a beat-up offensive line. And yet again this year,
- 37:53Speaker 3: the Broncos have 144 pressures on the quarterback. The next
- 37:57Speaker 3: closest team is Atlanta with 132, a full 12 ahead
- 38:00Speaker 3: of them. If there's one thing that gives me a
- 38:03Speaker 3: lot of confidence, and there's plenty of things you can
- 38:05Speaker 3: look at in this game that points to the Broncos winning.
- 38:08Speaker 3: The biggest thing, though, is the only way that Carolina
- 38:11Speaker 3: really operates positively and can get wins is if Bryce
- 38:14Speaker 3: Young has a good day. It's hard to have a
- 38:16Speaker 3: good day when people are all over you. And that's
- 38:19Speaker 3: what the Broncos do best.
- 38:20Speaker 4: I know history doesn't matter in games like this. It
- 38:22Speaker 4: just doesn't. It doesn't carry over from year after year.
- 38:25Speaker 5: But it does give me comfort that this is another
- 38:28Speaker 5: one of those games against an NFC team.
- 38:31Speaker 4: The Broncos own. Remember we talked about this going into
- 38:33Speaker 4: that Arizona game?
- 38:34Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 38:35Speaker 4: Broncos record against Arizona? Mm-hmm. A lifetime. They own them.
- 38:40Speaker 2: Well, they're 6-2.
- 38:41Speaker 5: That's not a lot of games, but they're 6-2 against Carolina.
- 38:46Speaker 2: And by the way, Brett, when you look at the
- 38:48Speaker 2: last two losses by the Carolina Panthers, the sacks allowed
- 38:52Speaker 2: have gone up. Breschung's been sacked 23 times this year,
- 38:56Speaker 2: but 11 of those have been in the last two games. Yeah.
- 38:59Speaker 2: The blowout loss to Tampa and then the eight-point loss
- 39:02Speaker 2: to Green Bay.
- 39:03Speaker 3: And then just to mention this, because we haven't talked
- 39:05Speaker 3: a lot about this today in college football for the
- 39:07Speaker 3: teams here in town, I think it's a big week
- 39:10Speaker 3: for CU. They go on the road at Arizona State.
- 39:12Speaker 3: They're three-and-a-half-point dogs. Was the game that you played against
- 39:15Speaker 3: Kansas State getting a win? Can you get another one?
- 39:18Speaker 3: And then you know what? Maybe a bowl game becomes
- 39:20Speaker 3: a lot more attainable, get you back to four and five.
- 39:24Speaker 3: Arizona State's been up and down this year. They're a
- 39:26Speaker 3: 500 team. um so can you go on the road
- 39:31Speaker 3: and make something happen in tucson and then csu is
- 39:35Speaker 3: playing at home against the number 25 team in the
- 39:37Speaker 3: country and a team that if the season ended today
- 39:40Speaker 3: boise state is that at large bid this could get
- 39:42Speaker 3: ugly 17 and a half point spread i want you
- 39:45Speaker 3: guys to guess what's the over under in this game.
- 39:49Speaker 4: It's got to be like 70.
- 39:51Speaker 3: I will say 78. 68 and a half. 68 and
- 39:54Speaker 3: a half.
- 39:55Speaker 2: What's disappointing is that the Rams have been scoring plenty
- 39:59Speaker 2: of points despite giving up boatloads of points. But then
- 40:03Speaker 2: against Utah State, they just laid down, man. They just
- 40:06Speaker 2: laid down against that team.
- 40:09Speaker 3: So before we get to Drunk Takes, who is the
- 40:12Speaker 3: winner of our Avalanche Hometown Remix jersey?
- 40:16Speaker 4: Daniel Rodriguez.
- 40:18Speaker 3: Daniel Rodriguez. Congratulations, Daniel.
- 40:21Speaker 4: Very, very nice.
- 40:21Speaker 2: Right on, DR.
- 40:22Speaker 4: Right on.
- 40:23Speaker 2: All right. Enough.
- 40:25Speaker 3: Let's get to our favorite part of the week, please.
- 40:26Speaker 2: Drunk Takes.
- 40:28Speaker 5: Marsha Lombardi and Kane present.
- 40:32Speaker 2: Trunk Takes.
- 40:34Speaker 4: For the record, I think this sort of dehumanizes us.
- 40:38Speaker 2: And it really cracks at our credibility as a show.
- 40:45Speaker 2: Trunk Takes. Drunk takes are eclipsed from throughout the week.
- 40:50Speaker 3: We slow them down to half speed. It makes it
- 40:51Speaker 3: sound like we're hammered.
- 40:52Speaker 5: Is your furnace supposed to make noise?
- 40:56Speaker 4: I know, I mean, it's got to make a little noise, right?
- 40:59Speaker 4: It's operating. But like weird noises. Like weird noises that
- 41:08Speaker 4: go on at the furnace. The more I think about it,
- 41:11Speaker 4: that may not be my furnace after all.
- 41:15Speaker 5: Maybe something else.
- 41:16Speaker 4: But if your furnace has issues right now, AAA, that's
- 41:23Speaker 4: the noise.
- 41:26Speaker 3: I don't think that's your furnace. Just if I had
- 41:29Speaker 3: to guess.
- 41:30Speaker 4: Pre-air time for AAA. That's right.
- 41:33Speaker 2: Does your furnace make this sound?
- 41:34Speaker 4: Got water.
- 41:35Speaker 2: Sugar water.
- 41:38Speaker 4: What's next?
- 41:39Speaker 3: Let me ask you guys a question.
- 41:41Speaker 4: Hey, man.
- 41:43Speaker 6: Hey, man. Hey, man. Stop one second. During commercial breaks,
- 41:49Speaker 6: I want to let you guys in on a little something, something.
- 41:52Speaker 6: I am tired. I only get a couple hours of nap,
- 41:57Speaker 6: then I got to get to the rink today. I've
- 42:00Speaker 6: been steaming my pants. Trying to steam my pants during
- 42:05Speaker 6: commercial breaks.
- 42:07Speaker 4: And it's not an.
- 42:09Speaker 6: Easy thing to do when you're trying to steam pants
- 42:12Speaker 6: in the span of four and a half minutes and
- 42:15Speaker 6: the iron won't cooperate.
- 42:18Speaker 3: Do you hear yourself? You ever go back and say.
- 42:21Speaker 2: You proud of yourself for that?
- 42:22Speaker 4: Like, why would I say stuff I said?
- 42:24Speaker 2: You ever go back and think about that?
- 42:27Speaker 3: I was going to ask you a sports question. You go,
- 42:28Speaker 3: you have to stop for a second. I was steaming
- 42:30Speaker 3: my pants.
- 42:31Speaker 5: You made it sound like we had to stop because
- 42:32Speaker 5: someone's at your door. Or, oh, wait, breaking news. You know,
- 42:36Speaker 5: someone got fired. You stopped the show to tell the
- 42:40Speaker 5: world you had to steam your pants.
- 42:42Speaker 3: Tell you what, Mosher, last few times you've been in here, Mosher,
- 42:46Speaker 3: he's been standing off to the side, hiking up his
- 42:48Speaker 3: leg and steaming his pants repeatedly in this studio. Disgusting.
- 42:53Speaker 3: What's next? You don't have a daughter that is refusing
- 42:57Speaker 3: to sleep. I've been living this for like five straight days.
- 43:03Speaker 6: I admire your procreation skills, but Maybe you ought to
- 43:09Speaker 6: think about that.
- 43:11Speaker 2: Well, it's just we're in it, Moshe.
- 43:14Speaker 3: A little too late to go back and put that
- 43:17Speaker 3: toothpaste back in the tube.
- 43:21Speaker 4: It is true.
- 43:24Speaker 2: Far, far too late for that.
- 43:26Speaker 4: What's next?
- 43:27Speaker 5: On the count of three, let's all do our voices
- 43:30Speaker 5: of the people we just can't stand.
- 43:34Speaker 4: One, two, three.
- 43:52Speaker 2: Your face made a weird face.
- 43:54Speaker 4: What the hell was that?
- 43:56Speaker 3: That was your idea.
- 43:58Speaker 4: That was the worst idea ever hatched.
- 44:01Speaker 2: Well, Vic, you... A few months ago said... Why don't
- 44:06Speaker 2: we all do, why don't we all speak in a
- 44:10Speaker 2: made-up language? You had that idea, too. Anyway, all right,
- 44:15Speaker 2: one more.
- 44:15Speaker 3: Go ahead.
- 44:16Speaker 5: About the poor play of the Broncos offense.
- 44:21Speaker 3: About the poor play of.
- 44:23Speaker 6: The Broncos offense.
- 44:26Speaker 5: During a game when it looks like all hope is lost.
- 44:31Speaker 5: During a game when it looks like all hope is lost.
- 44:37Speaker 5: No matter what I feel about the offensive inadequacy. No
- 44:44Speaker 5: matter what I feel about the offensive inadequacy.
- 44:54Speaker 2: Hey, Vic, that was another one of your ideas. What
- 44:57Speaker 2: a dumb idea. Maybe you're just not an.
- 45:02Speaker 3: Idea, man. Maybe that's it.
- 45:05Speaker 2: All right.
- 45:06Speaker 3: Got the double dip tomorrow. Abs and Nuggets both happening.
- 45:09Speaker 3: We got the game on Sunday between the Broncos.
- 45:11Speaker 2: When did they leave for Mexico City, Vic?
- 45:14Speaker 3: They left already.
- 45:15Speaker 4: They left yesterday. They're there right now.
- 45:18Speaker 3: So that game's going to be in the afternoon tomorrow,
- 45:20Speaker 3: the Avs at night, and then obviously the Broncos Sunday morning.
- 45:24Speaker 3: We'll have it all broke down for you on Monday.
- 45:27Speaker 3: So tune in then. Have a great weekend.
- 45:29Speaker 4: Love you.
- 45:30Speaker 2: See you. Wake up next to DMACC.
- 45:32Speaker 5: I got a fact for you guys that's going to
- 45:35Speaker 5: blow you out of the water.
- 45:37Speaker 6: Okay.
- 45:38Speaker 4: Mos, do you want.
- 45:39Speaker 5: To be blown out of whatever water you might encounter today?
- 45:44Speaker 4: Maybe ice water. Listen to this. Sure.
