• 0:23
  Speaker 2: they have like snow drifts that are higher than fifteen
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: story buildings.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: That seems fake to me, but.
• 0:29
  Speaker 4: I but they're everywhere. They're everywhere.
• 0:33
  Speaker 5: I haven't seen like snow compacted like that in such
• 0:36
  Speaker 5: a long time. I forgot what it looks like a
• 0:37
  Speaker 5: snow drift.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: Now it looks so almost apocalyptic. If these things are
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: real and I'm not being duped from Russia, I need
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: help from people because everybody's saying.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: This isn't You're not being duped. I mean the Russians
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: are always super honest, so.
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: They're so from their government.
• 0:54
  Speaker 5: It's people recording from their windows.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm just teasing. I don't. I don't know, Brett,
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: I don't. I have no idea to be honest with.
• 1:02
  Speaker 5: You, because it's insane. It looks like windows.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: I would immediately move if that happened to me one time.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: I'm like that's it. Never doing this again. What the
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Patriots do, because they do a lot of things really
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: really well. They run the football well, they throw the
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: football well. They stopped the run well, they stopped the
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: pass well. They're just a really, really well put together team.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: You realize in the regular season they were a top
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: ten passing defense in a top six rushing defense.
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they just they don't really have to think.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: They fly. I think their defense because we're enthralled with
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: Drake May, I've seen enthralled. Listen to me, I think
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: we overlook how good their defense really is.
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: There's one thing, throw the ball sixty five times. There's
• 1:52
  Speaker 5: listen to me, listen to my game plan. Hang on,
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: hang on, hang on, let me let me get let
• 1:56
  Speaker 5: me get through this real quick though. There's one thing
• 1:59
  Speaker 5: that they do really poorly.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: What punt the ball.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: Drake May was the fourth most sacked quarterback in the league.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: Correct, they give up sex, That is correct, A lot
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: of them. Yes they do.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Here's the only quarterbacks that were sacked more than Drake
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: May over the course of the regular season. And you'll
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: find a common theme here. Gino Smith, how is the
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Raiders offense?
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: Uh?
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: It was crap Okay, cam Ward, how is the Titans
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: offense crap? Justin Herbert, their all line was the worst
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: in the league. You have one thing you do really well,
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: which is attacked to quarterback Drake May in the two
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: playoff games he's played so far, has been sacked five
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: times a piece in the last two weeks.
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they're not going to throw the ball. What do
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: you mean they're not going to throw the ball. They're
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: going to run the ball. New England's going to run
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: the ball on side and they're gonna a lot.
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: They've thrown the football quite a lot. Just watch over
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: the course of the year.
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: Just watch what they do. Okay, what did you think
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: about the Broncos run defense? The last month? Wasn't great?
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: Not great.
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: How's it gone the last month? How do you think
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: they're stopping the run?
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: Not very well.
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: Do the New England Patriots get Do they get tape
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: of games? I'm just curious did they watch? Sure, they're
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: gonna run the ball, probably can do it. They're gonna run,
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: run and then some.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: Okay, but they're still going to have to throw the
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: ball occasion.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: Sure. Yeah, they're gonna play action that stuff, and it's
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: gonna be a lot easier to throw it. I mean, listen,
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: I want to believe you and say, oh good luck, man,
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: he's gonna be back there. He's gonna be having to
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: dodge all these pass rushers. I get it. The one
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: way around that, Josh McDaniels ain't dumb. He wasn't a
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: very good head coach, but he's a hell of a coordinator.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: You gotta run the ball.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Look, they can run the football and that's fine,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: and hopefully the Broncos do a better job at stopping it.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: But if you put them into passing situations, they don't
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: protect very well or Drake mayhole's onto the ball football
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: too long. And so what's really weird is the two
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: games that they've played in the postseason. They played against
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: the Chargers. The final score is sixteen to three. Remember
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Justin Herbert got sacked like ten times in that game.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: It was just he was getting beat up everywhere as
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: oh line was terrible. That's one way that they all
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: card round. The Houston game again, Drake may was sacked
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: a lot. I don't think their offense looked that great
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: in that game, if not for CJ. Stroud giving them
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: the football over and over and over again with one.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Thing the Broncos don't do well typically is forced turnovers.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: But they did against Buffalo. Yes, and May fumbled the
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: ball plenty, so maybe that's the play, just pound the quarterback.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: But somebody had just texted in Vic and these are
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: one of your people. I'm sure the two, four, five, six, well,
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: they only played one winning team all year. Their stats
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: are inflated. That comes from Paul. Okay, Paul, if you
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: think that's the case, fine, I mean maybe you say, oh, well,
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: their schedule was poor and.
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: The title game all that scal a lot.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but then you get to the postse and through
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: their two postseason games in terms of ranks overall, were
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: the fourth best passing defense in the postseason so far,
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: and they are the number one rush defense in the postseason.
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, so listen, I'm not gonna sit here with
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: Paul or anybody else in mince words. They're frigging good.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: You're gonna have to friggin find a frigging way to
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: friggin beat them through on the friggin ground or through
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: the friggin air.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: I think it's objectively hilarious that we're in the final four.
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: We're in the championship games, and people are saying, oh
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: that an easy schedule. Yeah, a team is in the
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: championship game.
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: That doesn't apply anymore.
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: Stop with the easy schedule this or that, or they
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: it was a fluke or they barely won. For this
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: applies to all four teams. Now, there's a reason they're
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: here because they're better than everybody else. However you want
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: to describe that and whatever you want to say, enough
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: with the schedule and who they played, that stuff is
• 5:58
  Speaker 5: all poop. And I know one thing. The New England Patriots,
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: judging from their coach, their attitude, the way they've gotten here,
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: they are going to line up and they are going
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: to run the ball a ton on Sunday are What
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: the Broncos do to counter that is a mystery because
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: they cannot run the ball. They can't.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: They ran it thirty two times against Houston last week.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: Stevenson had sixteen carries, Travon Henderson had twenty five.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: How many times did they pass it twenty seven? So
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: the balance was there, but they ran it more than
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: they passed it.
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: Why someone says? Someone says, I took that reasoning to
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: college football with Miami Flax. You couldn't be more wrong.
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: You could not be more wrong. I predicted Miami to
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: win the game yesterday. Think about this. Think about this.
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: In college football, Miami barely got into the playoffs, barely,
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: and yet they had a chance on the final possession
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: to win the whole thing. What does that tell you?
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: What does that tell you about the whole selection committee
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: in that process? What does that tell you? That's what
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: I thought.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: All right, I'm not can we leave this? Can we okay?
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: Can we leave the Notre Dame angst and anger on
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: the side now? I mean it is the day after
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: the Natty. It will look forward to next season, has
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: nothing to do with it.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: I was talking about my own Okay, listen to my words.
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: I was talking about Miami. I was talking about teams
• 7:23
  Speaker 5: when you get there, no matter how you get there.
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: We're in the final floor of the NFL. I don't
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: want to hear you know about their schedules and and
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: this and that. They won. They're here. They made c. J.
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: Stroud look like a JV quarterback last week. Oh, they
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: won because c J. Stroud can't throw the ball. Well,
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: they contributed to that. They won because Justin Herbert and
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: the Chargers are well, you know they're they're just two injured. Well,
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: I saw the Chargers beat a lot of other teams.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: Now I had I had those sort of reservations with
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: them before the playoffs started. I was just curious to
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: see what it looks like. They've They've surpassed any sort
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: of skepticism that you can have.
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: Now they're just a really good team and you got
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: to accept it. Now.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: If you remember, here's Sean Payton on Jared Stidham after
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: the game over the weekend.
• 8:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he's ready, He's ready. I said this at the
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: beginning of the season. I feel like I've got a
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: two that's capable of starting for a handful of number
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: of teams. And I know he feels the same way.
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: Watch out, Watch, watch just watch.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: So that was after the game.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: So at his zoom presser yesterday, he told a story
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: that he used he was getting mad advanced Joseph over
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: the course of this year during practice.
• 8:41
  Speaker 7: Why one of Stitti's great strengths is his mental aptitude
• 8:45
  Speaker 7: in his progressions and understanding plays. There'd be practices where
• 8:50
  Speaker 7: I'm looking advance, like getting pissed off because City's making
• 8:54
  Speaker 7: our defense. You know, look bad.
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: So he said, I'm getting mad Advanced Joseph because Stidham's
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: making the defense look bad, in which Zach Allen was
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: asked about that as well.
• 9:05
  Speaker 8: He's really really smart. He studies it and he's like
• 9:09
  Speaker 8: a second quarterback coach out there. And then on top
• 9:12
  Speaker 8: of it too, you know, he can make every single
• 9:14
  Speaker 8: throw I think. You know, you see in the games
• 9:16
  Speaker 8: he's played for US and back with the Raiders, you know,
• 9:19
  Speaker 8: he's made some really incredible throws. And so yeah, no,
• 9:22
  Speaker 8: we're really lucky to have him and it'll be good
• 9:24
  Speaker 8: on Sunday.
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: I am not worried about Jared's Didham's skill set. I'm
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: not worried about his approach. I'm not worried about the
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: only thing that concerns me this week is rust. The
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: guy has not attempted a pass in a real game
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: in more than two years. That's the only thing I'm worried.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: You can practice.
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: I'm not worried about his skill set. I'm not worried
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: about all of that. He's been a practice. Sure, practice,
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: isn't the games not the same thing.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: You can cut up a defense that can't take your
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: head off. Hey, Brett our quarterback in practice allowed to
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: be touched. No, are they allowed to be breathed on weirdly.
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: From a safe distance.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: Okay, that's about it. It's a bit of a different
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: story when you've got a three hundred pounder, you know,
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: jumping through the gap and arms in the air, and
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: he wants to hurt you as a human being. He
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: wants to physically hurt you. It's a little bit different.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: Vic is completely correct, he listen. I don't question his
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: arm strength through I don't question his judgment on a question,
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: his brain on question any of that. I question the
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: guy just doesn't have the flipping reps, that's all. And
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: I don't want to sit here and wring my hands
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: about it. God, if they had a running game that
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: could chew up one hundred and thirty five yards or
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: even more, I'd feel a lot better. But they don't
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: have that, right now, can I ask you?
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: Well, we'll get to this on the other side, but
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: let me ask this question.
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: If you win a playoff game that gets you entry
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: into a championship game appearance, and you lose your starting
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: quarterback in the midst of it, does this feel different
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: than what it should typically? If that if that happens,
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: you would feel this sense of dread, like are you
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: kidding me? Are seasons over now? Because our quarterback's gone
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: for the championship game? And I don't know about you,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: I don't totally have that feeling. It's of course going
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: to be a lot more difficult. I know that because
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: he's not bon Nicks. But it doesn't feel like the
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: steep drop off that it would be with a lot
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: of other quarter quarterbacks put in that position. So we'll
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: get there, just okay, So just hang on to it.
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: Hang on to it.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: We'll get there in a second. Fine, got another keyword

  Speaker 5: Well, try not doing reads. I tell you what, you
• 12:51

• 12:56
  Speaker 5: That's all he wants talk about during the three hour
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: sports shows.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: Music two three four four sentences is all I had
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: to get through.
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: Okay, who started?
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: And it took a minute? Now? Who started it all?
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: He wants to discuss? You know what, most, honest to God,
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: honest to God, you should be doing a music show
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: because every conversation out of your mouth is about music.
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: I could actually see Mosure doing that too.
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: You should, you should do a three hour morning music show,
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: just discussing the history of whatever that Satan song was
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: and all the other music you listen to.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Should I should? I apologize?
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: Hey?
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: Listen ten dollars for a large pizza paper, Murphy's I'm
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: in you way to make up for it a bad
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: I love Papa Murphy's I Love ten dollars Tuesdays get
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: me in all day, every day.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: Here's the question. The drop off from bon Nick's to
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: Jared Stidham is a big drop off.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know if that was a question. Does know that?
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: What's that?
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: How do you know it is?
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: Because he's a backup quarterback?
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: I know, But how do you know it's He just
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: called it a big drop off? How do you know that?
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: We haven't seen it.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: I'll give you I'll give you my reasoning in a second,
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: but I'll just this is where I'm coming from. Sure,
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: this does not feel like Patrick Mahomes going to whoever
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: Chris a Lot of Kuten or whatever his name.
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: It doesn't feel like that.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: If the Chiefs made the AFC Championship game and the
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: same thing happened, Mahomes busts up his ankle and they
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: got to start that guy in the AFC Championship. It
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: is a vast and insane drop off to where it
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: feels like can you even overcome it?
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: I feel like I'm better than Patrick Mahomes.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that guy.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Every time I will laugh at that. This doesn't feel
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: like that. And I don't mean this as some sort
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: of slight to bone Knicks.
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: But here's my reasoning.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: Bo Knicks is elite in one category for a quarterback,
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: and that's what Yeah, yes, I guess that, But I
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: was gonna say closing a football game like the ability
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: to close the game's.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: Clos terrific scrambler. Bro.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: If the game's close and you've got a chance to
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: win at the end, Bonix wins it. It's how you've
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: won all year long.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: Really, I don't know if Stidham can do that, And
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: I guess that's where the drop off is. Like, if
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: you're in that same scenario that you were last week,
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: do I know that Sidham's gonna lead him downfield and
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: get him in the end zone?
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: I don't.
• 15:17
  Speaker 5: Do you understand how rare this situation is in years past.
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: I'll go back to the Super Bowl years when the
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: Broncos won back to back Super Bowls. We got a
• 15:26
  Speaker 5: chance to see Bubby Brister in the middle of the
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: season and played well. Okay, right now, I'm making a
• 15:31
  Speaker 5: comp here, most calm down and listen, and my comp
• 15:34
  Speaker 5: is simple. We saw what he was in real live action.
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: We saw it. We haven't seen this guy in live action,
• 15:43
  Speaker 5: not since Russell Wilson was shown the door and he
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: cleaned up a season that was already lost. We haven't
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: seen anything not in the last two years. So it's
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: hard to make any judgment on what he is or
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: who he is.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: Okay at all, Here's here's as we go along. This
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: is a Tuesday. Do I sound better by the way
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: I think I think I did sound twenty six in
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: the morning. I will allow you to be optimistic, Okay,
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: I'll allow you to be optimistic and say, well, you know,
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: I think Stidham can get it done, and you know what,
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: I think that he maybe can as well. We'll have
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: to find out coming up on Sunday. But you're also
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: everybody going to have to be realistic. He's not. I mean,
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: I don't care if Sean Payton says he could start
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: for a handful or some teams in this league or whatever.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: He's not. He's your backup quarterback, okay, and I think
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: he's a very good one, don't get me wrong. That
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: being said, let's not pretend there isn't a drop off
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: from Nick to Jurreed Stidham, Okay, because there is now.
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: Is it a tiny one, is it a big one,
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: whatever it is, it's there so much so that the
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: Broncos opened as a one and a half point favorite
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: immediately following the win, and now they're a five and
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: a half point underdog. That's a six point swing. So
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: let's not pretendeven seven point swing. Let's not pretend. Yeah,
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: because you got the zero in there. But I think
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: that Greeks, the Greeks with their zeros right.
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: Most that swing is cloaked in mystery. It's cloaked in
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: the fact that we haven't seen a man perform on
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: this stage.
• 17:12
  Speaker 4: That's to Moser's point.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: That's why I'm saying, you can be optimistic, but you
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: can't be unrealistic.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: To Moser's point, and I again, I don't mean this.
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: I mean, maybe I do mean it to come off
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: the way it sounds.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: If you think there's not going to be that big
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: of a drop off, I think That says a lot
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: more about your feelings towards bow Knicks than Jared's Didham
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: because you don't know anything about JARED'STDAM.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: Really it's got four starts.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: It says a lot more about who bow Knicks is
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: as a quarterback in your mind. Does that make sense? Again,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: If we're talking about Josh Allen breaks his ankle and
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: he's going to the AFC Championship game and he can't play,
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: people in Buffalo are losing their minds. They're like, oh,
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: well it's over. Or you do that with Lamar, or
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: you do that with Burrow, or you do that with anybody.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: It's like the world is ending for them, and here
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: we're like, well, I still think they got a shot.
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: Even though I haven't seen this gentleman play football since
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: I was a much younger lad. Even though we haven't
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: seen him, I can't help but think there's no way,
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: I mean, there's no way on earth that Jared s
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: Didham goes into that game and performs worse than CJ.
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: Stroud did. It can't happen. I Jay Stroud was a
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: walking turnover and they still were in the game in
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: the fourth quarter.
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Okay, Can I ask you a question, just as drop
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: off to drop off. The Broncos don't have Knicks, they
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: now have Jared Stidham. Just right now, give me a
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: percentage shot that you think the Broncos have to win
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: the game, just the top of your head.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: What forty?
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: Okay, so that's even higher than I would put I
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: would put mine, like at thirty thirty three somewhere.
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: Now give him forty.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: If this happened to New England and not Denver, bo
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: Nicks is healthy, Drake may bust at his ankle the
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: last play of the game, Josh do just now starting.
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: We're giddy with confidence.
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: See what I may like?
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: You think you think that New England's done? You think
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: that's it, Like they aren't gonna do anything.
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I agree. But but but here's the difference.
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: Though New England has something they can lean on if
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: they have to go to the backup, what is it?
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: What do they have that cant They got a goodruning game,
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: They got a run game. The Denver Broncos have not
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: had a run game in more than a month. Yep,
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: they don't have anything to help. That's what makes bo
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: Nicks run in these playoffs even more impressive in that
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: divisional game. He didn't have what Josh Allen had. He
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: couldn't turn around and give it to a guy to
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: run for one hundred and seventeen yards. He didn't have that.
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: He was the leading rusher.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: This is what I was trying to get at yesterday
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: when we were discussing this. The way that the Broncos
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: have won again. This is not a disrespect or a
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: slight towards bon Nicks. The reason why I still feel
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: like they got a shot, and it sounds like you
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: guys do too.
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: Bo Nicks wasn't putting up thirty one points a game
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: to win.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: He was not making mistakes, hanging in there and then
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: making a few plays late like that's been the model.
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: Can a backup quarterback do that? Just manage a football game? Yes,
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: it's a lot easier to do it that way.
• 20:15
  Speaker 5: I want to I want to ask you guys.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: I want to clarify something back real quick about the
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: spread and all this kind of thing. The Broncos were
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: a one and a half point favorites against They were
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: were the home dog against Buffalo. They ended up then
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: to be the favorite one point one and a half. Right,
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: do you think Buffalo is a better football team than
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: the Patriots because the Broncos open as a four and
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: a half point dog.
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: No, I think Patriots are better, well rounded, more well round.
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: So do you think that the betting public thinks the
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: Patriots are a better football team?
• 20:41
  Speaker 9: Yeah?
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: Okay, all right, so clear.
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: But from where they from where they were kickoff against
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: the Bills to where they are now, that is a
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: seven point difference, correct with the backup quarterback. That's the
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: backup quarterback effect. That's what it is. That's all I'm saying.
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: Let me offer, let me offer, just my again. We
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: have four more days of this, three more days to
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: break it down. But on Tuesday, have you not seen
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: Jared statem at practice? Do you remember going out the
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: training camp for the last two years and we watched
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: Jared std We watched the quarterbacks. What do we say
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: when we watched it and throw the ball? What do
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: we say, Man, he throws a good football, throw a
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: good football, He throws a good foot he does. He
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: throws a good would you argue, and again, I'm making
• 21:22
  Speaker 5: this argument that he throws a better ball than bon Nicks. Uh.
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: Bon Nicks is faster, he's you know, I'm talking about
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: throwing the ball, just throwing the similar.
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: Okay, could Bo Nicks? Could I mean, I'm getting ahead
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: of myself. Would Stidham make that that throw of Mims
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: in the in the end zone. I've seen him make
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: throws like that, Okay, And I hope that God shows up.
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: Do you remember there's a prese and I know it's
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: just preseason. Remember the pass he had down the right
• 21:50
  Speaker 5: side line and number five that guy ultimately was field.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: Hey, do you remember that? Remember that pass he had
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: that guy against that third string guy and that.
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: But don't ask for an example, and I give you
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: one and then you poopoo it. The only examples, that's
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: the point. The only examples we have are in games
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: like that. That's all we have. His best game is
• 22:11
  Speaker 5: a pro came when he played for the Raiders under
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: Josh McDaniels. For crying out loud, That's that's how far
• 22:16
  Speaker 5: back you have to go. That's the mystery here. But
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: let me go down this road. First of all, if
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: we know the Broncos cannot run the ball, and I
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: get a JK. Dobbins and may play, he may play.
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: We don't know for sure if he's gonna play. They're
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: gonna try and see if he can. And if they're
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: not sure in this run game, why do we continue
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: to pound our head against the wall trying to run
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: the ball? Just lean into the pass game, go full
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: pass happy. Have the mad scientist Sean Payton designed an
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: offense on Sunday where they throw the ball like it's
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: a run and shoot offense.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'll give you a reason why they can't just
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: throw the ball sixty five times in the game. If
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: you aren't moving the chains and you're throwing incompletions, it's
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: too much stress on your defense. At least you can
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: burn some clock by running the ball occasionally, like it
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: gives your defense a breather. Sure now that with short
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: passing game and stuff like that, you can do it.
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: What are you say? What were you saying?
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: I'm just saying when it's so funny to many that
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: the Denver Broncos went twenty minutes in the second half
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: against Buffalo and couldn't do anything. The minute they started
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: throwing the ball again, what happened? What happened in the
• 23:35
  Speaker 5: final two minutes of that game? The minute they they
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: it was third and eleven and bo Nicks goes over
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: the middle of Corland sudden throwing this.
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: And they scored a touchdown.
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: It stop trying to pretend you can run the ball.
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: It's a pretend, but they can't do it.
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean they they did throw the ball in
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: the second half.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: They just didn't do it effectively. They didn't like run
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: run run, run roun They threw it. And what happened
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: late in the game is what happens every time. Late
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: in the game, they go a little bit more up tempo,
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: they pare down the playbook and bow Nicks plays amazing on.
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: You were You just raised a very good point, though, Vick.
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: If they're gonna go full pass, like you advise, then
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: they better be able to execute it, because if you're
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: going three and out all the time, dude, and you're
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: leaving that the only thing that can kill that defense,
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: in my opinion, is the defenses on the field, and
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: the defenses on the field, and the defense is on
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: the field, because you know what the Patriots are gonna do.
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: They're gonna pass the ball a little bit, Bret. They're
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: gonna run the football right and they are going to
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: pound you in the face and they're gonna wear you down.
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: So Vick, if you're going to pass you, sure as
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: heck better have some ball.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: Here's the second half, just to give you a clearer picture.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: Here's the second half of the Buffalo game. Pass run, run, punt,
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: pass run, interception, pass run, pass, pass, pass, punt, uh
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: run run, pass punt. Then it was the touchdown drive,
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: and then it was in the game.
• 25:16
  Speaker 5: Okay, maybe it's when you run. Because here's what I
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: found by watching that Buffalo game. And tell me if
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: you guys agree with me. Their inability to do anything
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: on first down was ghastly. Yeah, and it set them
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: up in second and third and long situations every time.
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: And I'm looking at this. They tried to run on
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: first downs a lot. Couldn't do it. Yeah, couldn't do it.
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: Couldn't run on first down, and it set up a
• 25:40
  Speaker 5: second and eleven, set up a third and seven. Couldn't
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: run on first down. Maybe they changed the rhythm of that.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know how much do you guys think. I
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: don't know what Jared stid in the tendencies are. There's
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: not enough of a sample size. But you got a
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: guy on the other side who coached.
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: Him, Mike. Mike Rabel said in the press conference they
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: tried to sign him.
• 26:04
  Speaker 7: This off season.
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: He knows him, they like him.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: They hell, they drafted him. Josh McDaniels, though, as you said,
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: coached him. Yeah, how much does he I mean, how
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: I guess a leper doesn't change his spots.
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm sure the intel, he's got intel on what
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: he can do well and what he cannot do. I'm
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: sure Josh McDaniels is in the office right now talking
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: of Rabel, saying here's what he does. Well, here's what
• 26:29
  Speaker 5: we need to pressure him. Yeah, here's how we I mean,
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: obviously that's a conversation. Then you have the other side.
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: Let me read this text from none other than Kyle Keef.
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: Oh God, And there are a lot of people that
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: think this, and I love this mindset. I hope it
• 26:45
  Speaker 5: comes true. To be honest with you quote, I think
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: Stidham is going to play so well, not only the
• 26:52
  Speaker 5: AFC Championship Game, but in the Super Bowl that you're
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: gonna have conversations, real conversations about a quarterback controvert. Not
• 27:00
  Speaker 5: my words, The Broncos and Jared Stidham learn how to spell.
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: Jared Cohn will win the Super Bowl, and we will
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: be having ridiculous conversations about a quarterback controversy right here
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: you go?
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: Oh good god, mark the words.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: Let me get a penal. Mark this down, Keith quarterback controversy.
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: Okay, write this down? Help record?
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: Are they marked?
• 27:24
  Speaker 7: Wait?
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: Wait?
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: Wait wait wait?
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: I marked the words?
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: All right, that's that.
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: What if I'm not gonna discount you know what next.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: Ming camp, Bowe, Nicks and Jared still Am gonna have
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: a quarterback battle. That's that's the allegation here.
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: You've got Do you know the name hold on to say,
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: hold on saying stop everything?
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: Do you know the name Jeff Hasse? Do you know
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: who Jeff Hosteler is?
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: Okay, Jeff Hostedler took over for Phil Simms. Hold on,
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: stop stop. They came back the following year. In training camp,
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: Hosteler went from never seeing the field to starting what
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: do you what do you pace it around? For modes?
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: We've seen this before, It's happened.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: It's happened back to back years, led his team to
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: playoff appearances, won a playoff game, got them to an
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: AFC championship, and the only reason why he's not going
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: to play in that is because his ankles and half.
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: No one is going to say he's losing the job.
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: I'm saying there's going to be thought process behind it.
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: There's gonna be people talking about it.
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: Have a nose bleed. I feel like Vic just broke
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: my head and is giving me a nose bleed.
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: This isn't me, this is you're telling you're telling me.
• 28:36
  Speaker 3: No, No, I want to get this straight. Just please
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: humor me so I get it straight. I want to understand,
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: help me learn. You're telling me that Sean Payton's hand
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: picked quarterback who's kicked major ass and led his team
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: to an AFC title game, is going to be supplanted
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: by the backup going into next season.
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: I'm not saying instead of wins a super Bowl, I'm
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: not saying it. I'm saying there are people out there
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: who say that if he does that.
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: He's probably his dog.
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: If he accomplishes all of that, those two big optics
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: trade him, then they'll he's a trade asset.
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: Bow Nicks is your starting quarterback in Denver, Conora.
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: Nobody's getting that. But there is going to be a
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: thought process about wow, we have I won't.
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: I refuse. I refuse to quartake such a hot take
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: that you're so fired up about it. This is not.
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: All it does is prove that it's an it's a
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: systematic offense, and that Sean Payton is really the guy
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: that's making these quarterbacks shine. That's what the proof is here.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: But there there will be not a single utterance of
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: a controversy. There will be a number one quarterback in
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: camp next year, no matter what happens, and that will
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: be bon Nicks, and the backup will be whoever the
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: backup will be.
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: Maybe it's did of maybe it's not.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: I remember when Nick Foles took over for Carson Wentz
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: and he won a Super Bowl for Philly, and then
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: Carson Wentz started the next year.
• 30:01
  Speaker 5: How'd that go?
• 30:03
  Speaker 7: Well?
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: How did it go?
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: For falls?
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: Either? You never know? Listen, Do I do I buy
• 30:09
  Speaker 5: into Kyle's Disney movie that he just laid out for
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: the script? Not really, I don't buy it because there's
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: just too much mystery here. But what if that's all
• 30:20
  Speaker 5: he's just asking?
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: What if he's not asking?
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: What if he made a declarative statements, he told me
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: mark my words, Vick, That's not what.
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: I've got to the trash.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: I've got to get a hold of somebody on my
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: t Do you know anybody bred it in my te am?
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: I asking you for you don't know anybody? Noll that
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: you probably do. I've got to find out the calculations
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: of Vick's ability to make me really pissed off for
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: no reason, because you're doing a good job of it.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: You're just it's just it's silly talking.
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: I'll tell you what. I tell you what you want.
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: You want to You want to sure, what's worse? Want sure?
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: What's dumber? Your stupid hat for that?
• 30:56
  Speaker 5: Take you want to feel better? Take this time out,
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: this three minute break, go listen to your satan music
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: and then come back and I'm sure you'll be ready. Ken.
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: One last reminder, Hinton, like Kendall, Hinton is your keyword
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: for this hour. Chance to get in the building for
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: the Avs in Ducks tomorrow. So Hinton and your first.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: And last name back after this.
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: This is music. See he puts a smile on your face,
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: right you trying to max out you.
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: I like you know, Vic, this is this is my stuff.
• 31:29
  Speaker 5: It's mine.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: We'll get the keys of the game in just a bit,
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: but let's get a couple of calls here Adrian has
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: been waiting patiently.
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: Hello Adrian, good morning.
• 31:41
  Speaker 9: Hey, hey guys, Happy New Year. I hope everybody's will
• 31:43
  Speaker 9: same to you.
• 31:44
  Speaker 5: Very nice.
• 31:45
  Speaker 9: You wanted, yeah, wanted to bring up something, and I
• 31:49
  Speaker 9: think Vic could maybe think back because he's an ad
• 31:52
  Speaker 9: of what to me. A more direct parallel with Jared
• 31:56
  Speaker 9: Stidham starting for Bonex would be Gary Kubiak coming in
• 31:58
  Speaker 9: for John Elway in the fourth quarter of the Bills
• 32:01
  Speaker 9: Broncos ninety one championship game, and if you remember that,
• 32:06
  Speaker 9: could be glad a quick touchdown drive whatever to non
• 32:08
  Speaker 9: side kick, and I think it was a second down
• 32:10
  Speaker 9: fumble that kept the Broncos for maybe tying or even moon.
• 32:14
  Speaker 5: By Steve School. Is that the Steve School fumble? Yes,
• 32:18
  Speaker 5: I remember that game.
• 32:19
  Speaker 9: One of my favorite players.
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I remember that. It was a little different than
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: here because Koob's you know, it's funny. The backup quarterback
• 32:26
  Speaker 5: is usually always like the most popular player on the team.
• 32:29
  Speaker 5: Everybody loves the backup. I remember the early l Way Ears.
• 32:34
  Speaker 5: There were games, believe it or not, this is John
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: Elway Hall of Famer. This is a legend. There were
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: games where people are like well, give Kubiak a chance.
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: For crying out loud, right, there were those games. How
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: many games this year did Bronco fans say, well, give
• 32:49
  Speaker 5: Stidy a chance. I it's we just haven't seen him play.
• 32:54
  Speaker 5: We haven't seen him play at all in a game
• 32:57
  Speaker 5: that matters. Outside of the final two games when Russell
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: Wilson was benched and that season was already lost. What
• 33:04
  Speaker 5: do we remember and maybe we should do a better
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: job of going back and looking at those two games.
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: What do we remember about the two games he played?
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: Go back?
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: Nothing, pull him up. I couldn't care less. It doesn't matter.
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: It was a lost season, nothing mattered.
• 33:18
  Speaker 5: Thanks for the call, Adrian, the here's it still matters.
• 33:22
  Speaker 5: It matters for players to play well.
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: It matters.
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: He was fine.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: Now again, there weren't like huge stakes on the line
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: for these games. So he played against the Chargers on
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: New Year's Eve. He was twenty of thirty two for
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: two hundred and twenty four yards in a touchdown. They
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: won sixteen to nine. The last week of the season,
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: they played against the Raiders in Vegas. They lost twenty
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: seven to fourteen. He was twenty of thirty four for
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: two hundred and seventy two yards, a touchdown and a pick.
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: It was fine. Yeah, you know, you can go all
• 33:52
  Speaker 5: the way back to his college days. This is a
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: guy who beat number one teams in the country and
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: back to back weeks at Jared's did that? Yeah? How
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: often does that take place today? Name name me a
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: college quarterback in the last five years that has beaten
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: the number one team in back to back weeks. Find
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: me one that's problem.
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: What is your problem? Because Vick, I'm gonna walk out
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: of here today. This is sad. It really, it's more
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: than anything. It's sad. I'm going to walk out of
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: here today. Have you listened to you a dumber person
• 34:27
  Speaker 3: than I was when I arrived at six forty five am?
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: And I don't want to do that. You're going back
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: to college, bro. This is the National Football League, Bro,
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: this is a pro quarterback in the AFC title game
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: against the defense that is going to want to kill him.
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: Do you understand the words coming out of my mouth?
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: So I don't just don't play the game then no,
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying, but you're you know, back when he
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: was in college against.
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: All I'm saying that he is ready for the moment
• 34:51
  Speaker 5: he's okay, that's fine, That's all I'm saying.
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: But you don't know any more than I do. I
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: don't care about what he did to three seasons ago
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: against the the against on no name games. It doesn't matter.
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: All that matters is right now, and the gods honest
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: truth is you don't know any more than I do.
• 35:07
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm just trying to paint. I'm just trying to
• 35:09
  Speaker 5: paint a picture that he's been in these situations before.
• 35:12
  Speaker 5: It's not like he's coming to this new with no
• 35:14
  Speaker 5: He's done this before at different levels, that's all. Now
• 35:18
  Speaker 5: he hasn't done in two years here at at the
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: biggest level. This what we're about to see has never happened.
• 35:24
  Speaker 5: I think Roger Staubach's the only guy's ever done this,
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: and even he had more experience. But going into a
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: championship game, walking off the I mean the sideline essentially
• 35:35
  Speaker 5: into a champion to Don.
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: Meredith, who was the quarterback of the Cowboys at that time,
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: must have been like seventy two when Stawback took over.
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, that's a great question. Was it Craig Morton?
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: Might have been Morton, It might have been I think
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: Don Meredith. Maybe he was already retired at that point.
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: You have That's how far back you have to go.
• 35:55
  Speaker 5: This doesn't happen, so mos I'm not sure why you're
• 35:58
  Speaker 5: wet blanketing everything I'm saying about. I'm just trying to
• 36:01
  Speaker 5: paint any picture, any sort of historical anecdote I can
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: muster to say, he'll be ready for the moment. Now
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: can he execute in the moment? Those are two different arguments.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: It was Craig Martin.
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: By the way, Okay, good job, that's an excellent poll. Vic,
• 36:15
  Speaker 3: I'm getting yelled at by people. Calm down, Mosier. Vic
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: is being an analyst. Could you contribute something instead of
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: insulting Vic? I'm agree.
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: Insults our contributions on the show.
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: Is your wife's the last four digits four two sixty three?
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: I think it is. The four two six three is
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: all over my bacon. I'm just saying I just like
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: I just I begged you earlier. You can be optimistic,
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: but you have to be realistic at the same time.
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: This is going to be very difficult. It really is.
• 36:47
  Speaker 3: I said forty two percent. I just looked up the
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: little uh what do you call it? Help me out,
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: Brett the matchup predictor, right, h And it says that
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: the matchup predictor as the Patriots fifty eight point four
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: to forty one point six. So that's forty two to
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: fifty eight or whatever.
• 37:09
  Speaker 5: Can I ask a follow up question to you know,
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: quarterback play and how fickle this is? This season, we
• 37:16
  Speaker 5: would paint bo Knicks's season as a pretty damn good year, right,
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: I mean what he did, the ability to come back,
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: come from behind and win games. I mean, it's unreal.
• 37:25
  Speaker 5: It's unprecedented, really, the number of games he's won under
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: the age of twenty five and to come from behind.
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: Fesh.
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: Were there moments this season? Nothing hard, I don't want
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: your brain to hurt. Most were there moments this season
• 37:37
  Speaker 5: when people here in town and nationally were calling for
• 37:40
  Speaker 5: the benching of bon Nicks?
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: Think about I mean, wait this season?
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: Yes, this season.
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, there were times that the offense looked bad. I
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: don't know if it's calling five.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: I don't think anybody it was calling for a conversation
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: about maybe bench something like that game.
• 37:56
  Speaker 5: But it was in the it was in the conversation.
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they had a lot of rough weeks offensively.
• 38:00
  Speaker 5: All I'm saying is It speaks to the fickle nature
• 38:03
  Speaker 5: of that position in this game and how we talk
• 38:05
  Speaker 5: about it. That Hell, I remember Colin Coleherd saying, I
• 38:08
  Speaker 5: wonder if Sean Payton would draft another quarterback. Do you
• 38:10
  Speaker 5: remember that?
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: No, I don't.
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: Yes, he's not stupid talk He did say that.
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: He said that, Well, then he's dumb.
• 38:18
  Speaker 5: There were moments in on our show. People listening to
• 38:21
  Speaker 5: this show. Don't suddenly forget things, folks. You know you're
• 38:24
  Speaker 5: you're liable to here. We had people say bo Nicks
• 38:28
  Speaker 5: ain't the guy. We heard people say.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: I came in here on Mondays multiple times this this
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: year saying that the offense wasn't good enough and I
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: don't think Bonnicks is playing good enough. And look I
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: never thought he should be benched, but yeah, I was like,
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: I don't know how good this guy is.
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: I can promise you. I can promise you with God
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: as my witness. Not even for a s split nano second,
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: would Sean Payton ever consider benching Bonnicks. Nor did he,
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: nor has he ever considered it?
• 38:58
  Speaker 5: Oh no, because he was tied to him. Well, that's
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: the fact I'm not.
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: Talking about it is silly.
• 39:02
  Speaker 5: I'm just saying, were there discussions, that's all? And those
• 39:05
  Speaker 5: discussions were based on performance what you saw. I don't
• 39:10
  Speaker 5: know what we'll see out of this kid.
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 39:13
  Speaker 5: I don't know what he is. But if he wins
• 39:16
  Speaker 5: the next two games, yeah, there's gonna be discussions whether
• 39:20
  Speaker 5: you like it.
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: Fine, A fine, I'm sure people will have discussions, not
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: realistic ones, but they'll have discussions. You know. It's like
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: Mark Sprayer having discussions of you know, dating Britney's spears.
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: I mean, there can be discussions, but the realism of
• 39:34
  Speaker 3: it is not.
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: Has the Springer of been dating somebody for a while? Oh?
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: Bro?
• 39:40
  Speaker 4: Uh sorry, Let's get one more call here.
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: Real quick, though. I'm sorry, you don't know what he is?
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: Can I tell you what he isn't? I know? You
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: know what I'm not. Let's go to the call. I
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: don't want to go down that route. I'm sorry, one.
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: Call real quick. Greg has been waiting patiently.
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: Hi.
• 39:56
  Speaker 10: Greg, Hey, Hey you guys doing this morning?
• 39:58
  Speaker 6: Ye?
• 39:59
  Speaker 10: Brother, I'm a true believer in Stinny. First of all,
• 40:01
  Speaker 10: you know I tried to get him by the bed
• 40:03
  Speaker 10: this morning. I didn't feel like it, but guess what
• 40:05
  Speaker 10: I did? It right. Okay. The other part of it
• 40:07
  Speaker 10: is that when we look at this big picture, whose
• 40:10
  Speaker 10: job is it to help Stinny look good? The whole team?
• 40:14
  Speaker 10: How many players that we lost before this game one.
• 40:17
  Speaker 10: Let's not get hooked up who we like it?
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: Who is Pat Bryant and Troy Franklin probably aren't gonna
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: play either.
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: But yeah, But.
• 40:24
  Speaker 10: The point is it takes a team to win. We
• 40:27
  Speaker 10: keep looking at one person. Really, guys, how many you
• 40:30
  Speaker 10: guys played sports before you think it doesn't work?
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: Agreed? Greg? Agreed, I completely agree with you. But it's
• 40:36
  Speaker 3: the But it's also the most important player on the field.
• 40:40
  Speaker 10: I understand that. So it's our job is to team
• 40:43
  Speaker 10: job to make sure that things go is best and
• 40:46
  Speaker 10: smooth as possible if we can trust in that. I
• 40:49
  Speaker 10: trust in Sean Payton. I trusted him all here to
• 40:51
  Speaker 10: get us to this point.
• 40:53
  Speaker 5: Great, Greg, that's the best point you've made. And I
• 40:55
  Speaker 5: made this point all day yesterday.
• 40:57
  Speaker 9: Greg.
• 40:57
  Speaker 5: Appreciate the phone call.
• 40:58
  Speaker 9: Here.
• 40:59
  Speaker 5: Here's my point here why Bronco fans should be somewhat
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: confident about this. If you could name one coach in
• 41:06
  Speaker 5: the league that could coach up a backup quarterback to
• 41:10
  Speaker 5: prepare himself for something this big. Sean Payton would be
• 41:15
  Speaker 5: my choice. He's done it. Yeah, he's proven he can
• 41:18
  Speaker 5: do it. Look at his backups record in New Orleans.
• 41:22
  Speaker 5: Look at did you see the glee in this? Did
• 41:25
  Speaker 5: you see the way he approached that press conference on Sunday.
• 41:28
  Speaker 5: It wasn't one of h It wasn't a Moser like
• 41:31
  Speaker 5: press conference. Oh all this lost. It was we're gonna
• 41:35
  Speaker 5: coach him up. He's ready and we're gonna be ready.
• 41:38
  Speaker 5: That's what I want. I want Moser hiding in the corner.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: Are you doing run into the hills with your dogs
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: or something like that?
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: Who's insulting? Now? Who's Insulting's right? Greg? That's fine. He's
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: also the supportant player on the field.
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: Man and Greg, I appreciate the call when you say
