Is Dak Prescott a top 5 QB? NFL Week 8 reactions/ analysis plus more! · The So-Called Sports Analysts

• 0:01
  Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, welcome, Welcome back to another episode of the
• 0:05
  so called Sports Analyst. I'm your host, Alfonso Portillo. Josh, how
• 0:08
  you doing today? I'm doing okay, man, Actually, I'm doing all
• 0:12
  right. It was a rough little weekend, so we'll unpacking a little bit
• 0:17
  later. But other than that, honestly, this week is sports is a
• 0:21
  little weird, like it was just a little draggy week weekends. But well,
• 0:26
  I'm ready to get into it. Yeah, But before we go in
• 0:29
  and get started, you guys can follow us on Twitter at Flying Garcia one
• 0:33
  hundred and Underscore Alfonso zero three and whatever. You're listening to it on Spreaker,
• 0:38
  Spotify, iHeartRadio, Google Podcast, Amazon Music. We appreciate it.
• 0:43
  But we're gonna go ahead and get straight into these ball games, and we're
• 0:46
  gonna start with the Monday night football game in which the Detroit Lions beat the
• 0:51
  Las Vegas Raiders twenty six to fourteen. Josh, what was your first reaction
• 0:55
  from this game? This looks like the Lions that we've seen all season,
• 1:00
  Like they took control offensively. This allowed their defense to really get into a
• 1:04
  rhythm, not have to overplay, overstimulate so the Lions they got things going
• 1:10
  of My biggest takeaway is that Jamior Gibbs looking every little bit of the twelfth
• 1:15
  pick overall in this year's NFL draft. Over these last two games today he
• 1:19
  finis with twenty six for one fifty two, one touchdown and receiving five for
• 1:23
  thirty seven. And he had it on top of that. So it just
• 1:27
  added for a good recipe just to get stuff cooking, you know. And
• 1:32
  uh, that's that's my biggest takeaways for this game. Yeah. No,
• 1:34
  and then especially how the Lions, especially after last week, how they were
• 1:38
  they just lost the game. They just said, all right, well,
• 1:42
  we're gonna get back to the basics. We're gonna run the football, which
• 1:45
  it was shown with two hundred and twenty two rushing yards on forty three rush
• 1:49
  attempts, which is ridiculous, but you still average a five point two yards
• 1:53
  per carry. I don't care if it's against the Raiders and Niners, Ravens,
• 1:57
  whoever. It is. To be able to rush forty three times and
• 2:00
  be able to have five point two yards to carry is good. Maybe they
• 2:04
  didn't cash it in the red zone as much as they should have, but
• 2:07
  they still got the job done. And as far as from the Raiders side,
• 2:14
  Jimmy G, he was terrible in this game right here. It was
• 2:16
  it was hard to watch this game right here just because the Raiders and I
• 2:22
  feel bad for specifically DeVante Adams right here. So what do you think the
• 2:25
  Raiders they should do or what do you think? What do you think they
• 2:30
  should do? Yeah? I think this was like a big given pool for
• 2:35
  the Raiders today because all gear josh A has been struggling to run the ball,
• 2:39
  and today he actually looked good running the ball fifteen for sixty one to
• 2:43
  four point one yards per average. He had good receiving yardage to today.
• 2:46
  But Jimmy G didn't look by the game manager where you used to seeing like
• 2:51
  where he's able just to hit the guys in space, hit them open,
• 2:53
  find the zones. Hit Jacoby Myers and DeVante Adams. You know what Jacoby
• 2:58
  Myers and DeVante Adams combined for today, two catches. If you're number one
• 3:02
  and number two receiver combined for two catches. I really don't know what they
• 3:07
  should do from this point forward, because for a second, it looked like
• 3:10
  how the Broncos are playing right now, like they picked up their play,
• 3:15
  they picked up how they played this game, how they played I thought we
• 3:17
  were just start getting that from the Raiders from those two couple good weeks we
• 3:20
  saw not last week, the week before, We're like, oh, this
• 3:23
  might be the Raiders starting to pick up a little bit. And now they're
• 3:25
  just no man's land again. So we'll just wait and see because I don't
• 3:30
  really see them making any big moves Tomorrow. By when's the trade deadline,
• 3:34
  like three thirty or something, I don't see them making any big moves.
• 3:39
  So we're just gonna have to wait and see if they can maybe sneak in.
• 3:43
  But I really don't see this team making any progress. Yeah, no,
• 3:46
  I don't see them. Well, even just two weeks ago we talked
• 3:50
  about it. Hey, well maybe the Bears. They could get on someone
• 3:53
  of a run. They play the Bears. Then maybe after you win that
• 3:55
  game, you have some momentum. Maybe you could upset the Lions or whatever.
• 4:00
  It's a primetime game. Anything could happen. And yeah, like you
• 4:02
  were saying, Jimmy g he wasn't the quarterback that he usually is, even
• 4:06
  though his offensive line it was getting gashed. Maybe you could say it's a
• 4:11
  hungry Lions team that was just out for blood after how they looked or last
• 4:16
  week. But still it's no excuse for them to be looking like this,
• 4:20
  and it's just what do you really do? You signed Jacobe Myers to a
• 4:29
  thirty three million dollar contract for two years. I believe Davante Adams he's getting
• 4:32
  paid almost thirty million dollars a year. Josh Jacobs, He's gonna want to
• 4:36
  get paid. So do you try to trade Davonte Adams? I know,
• 4:41
  especially after this game, he looked pissed, So I don't know. Maybe
• 4:46
  you trade away DeVante Adams. You get some draft capital there and then you're
• 4:49
  able to draft maybe a quarterback or get a couple of pieces because DeVante Adams
• 4:54
  he's still at a high level right now. He may not be having the
• 4:58
  stats, but he's up there and maybe you get a first and a third
• 5:02
  and that'll definitely help out right there. What do you think? Do you
• 5:05
  think that they should try to trade DeVante Adams, especially after this game?
• 5:11
  Or you think they should just let it play out the rest of the season.
• 5:16
  Man, Because it's hard to say because what teams are willing to pay
• 5:21
  certain prices for some players. I get DeVante Adams maybe is on a lot
• 5:26
  of teams radar. He's on probably like let's say seventy seventy five percent of
• 5:30
  the NFL's radar of maybe making a big move for. But when it comes
• 5:35
  to that, who's gonna take on that contract? How is the Raiders just
• 5:40
  gonna eat a lot of it? And then for Jacoby Myers, Jacob Marriss
• 5:43
  had a really good year this year. I don't see him getting traded.
• 5:46
  Honestly. I think they invested enough money into him and seen enough from him
• 5:49
  to think that this is a player that they can keep going forward unless they
• 5:53
  just realize, oh, it's only a two year contract. Maybe we can
• 5:55
  just deal deal him and bring in something. But I really don't see them
• 6:00
  making any moves. I heard some things about Max Crosby maybe getting moved,
• 6:06
  but I think he moved, but he fits too much of the Raiders culture
• 6:10
  in general to see that happening. So I really don't know what direction I
• 6:15
  see this team taking. Yeah, and we'll see maybe trade deadline. It's
• 6:19
  always it's always a great trade deadline, or it's always underwhelming, So we'll
• 6:26
  see. There's still plenty of time tomorrow to make some moves. But all
• 6:29
  right, we'll go ahead and move on to this next game. Right here.
• 6:30
  It's a Sunday night football game in what's the Los Angeles Chargers beat the
• 6:36
  Chicago Bears thirty to thirteen, and Tyler Bageant looked kind of human after how
• 6:43
  he did last week. What did you take away from this game? Right
• 6:46
  here? Josh Chargers handled their business in this game as they should because I
• 6:53
  get there's three and four. They're a losing team. But the Los Angeles
• 6:56
  Chargers compared to the Chicago Bears. Just put the rosters next to each other
• 7:00
  and let me see who he thinks gonna win this game, you know,
• 7:01
  so Justin Herbert looked good. I hope he looks good versus the Bears.
• 7:06
  Two ninety eight, three touchdowns. All right, Austin Eckler looked a little
• 7:11
  iffy on the running in the running game, but that's Austin Eckler. Austenegger
• 7:14
  is not a great runner of the football, but when it comes to the
• 7:15
  receiving game, this is where he makes his money. Seven for ninety four
• 7:19
  in a touchdown. You need that from your from your star running back.
• 7:23
  And then Keenan Allen had kind of a pedestrian day as compared to the rest
• 7:27
  of his year he's had so far so eight for sixty nine, but that's
• 7:30
  still productive in a sense. And as for the Bears, Tyson Bagent badget
• 7:35
  whatever. He Yeah, I mean he played good for who he is and
• 7:42
  the situation he's given. I'm not gonna say he played gray or he's taken
• 7:46
  anyone's job, but he just was a filling justin fields me back soon and
• 7:49
  they'll throw him back in there. And she was really at with this team.
• 7:53
  And see where this This is a team looking to next season already.
• 7:56
  This isn't a team that's making any runs, So what's the scene with them?
• 8:01
  The fact that dj More didn't have a single catch in the second half
• 8:05
  is a little little iffy. But as for the most part, the Chargers
• 8:09
  had no business last night. Yeah, they did what they needed to do,
• 8:15
  just beat up on a bad team. And like you're saying, Tyler
• 8:18
  Bagan after his first start, he not that he was great in his first
• 8:24
  start, but he looked pretty good. So the only chance they really had
• 8:28
  was when they had that deep bomb to Vilas Junior or something like that,
• 8:33
  and he had Jones Villas Jones Junior. Yeah, and even at that point
• 8:37
  it was seventeen to zero. So really just no chance in this game.
• 8:43
  And yeah, Chargers, they took care of business and hopefully they can make
• 8:46
  a playoff run because you got the Jets next Monday Night Football, which even
• 8:50
  though the Jets they haven't played good as of late, they should win that
• 8:54
  game. Then you have the Lions, which is a tough game, and
• 8:58
  the Packers, Raven Patriots, Broncos, Raiders, Bills, Broncos, and
• 9:03
  Chiefs. That's how they finish off their schedule. So it's kind of he's
• 9:07
  a very good I don't know, that's not a very good schedule to end
• 9:09
  up this season with. So yeah, well let's see if they can make
• 9:13
  a turnaround. Yeah no, but we'll say I got a weird, a
• 9:16
  weird, a weird proposition with his game. If if they lose his game,
• 9:22
  is this Brandon Staley? With that, I feel like that might have
• 9:24
  been Brandon Staley's last game with the Charger if they lose yesterday. Yeah,
• 9:28
  yeah, he's definitely on the hot seat. Yeah, even though he's won
• 9:33
  this game, they're under they're underwhelming right now. They're three and four,
• 9:37
  so and you have Kellen Moore, which it's kind of making sense. I
• 9:41
  didn't put two and two together. How we're talking about Eric b Enemy taking
• 9:45
  over that commander's job. I just saw that yesterday. Yeah, yeah,
• 9:48
  Kellen Moore, he's right in the perfect cat bird seat where he could just
• 9:54
  take that job and and it would just be easy right there, which is
• 9:58
  smart. You're in LA, so you're gonna be making I'm pretty sure he's
• 10:03
  making almost head coach money right now, so there's not gonna be much of
• 10:07
  a difference. So yeah, I think if they don't make it to the
• 10:11
  division round of the playoffs or even conference championship, he's gonna get fired because
• 10:16
  especially after last year how they lost or they were up twenty seven to zero
• 10:20
  and then they lost. So yeah, but all right, we're gonna move
• 10:24
  on to this next game. It was, oh man, they're back.
• 10:31
  I'm just saying they're back, the Cincinnati Bengals beating the San Francisco forty nine
• 10:35
  ers thirty one to seventeen, in which Joe Burrow looked like Joe Burrow And
• 10:41
  all right, I'll let you go in and get into this because I know
• 10:45
  you're a Chiefs fan. I know you're probably shaking your boots right now,
• 10:48
  So what do you see from this game? I'm not shaking in my boots.
• 10:52
  But it was good while it lasted that the Bengals started the way they
• 10:56
  did, But they did this last year and I think they did that the
• 10:58
  year before too, So like it's just nothing new with the Bengals. How
• 11:03
  they start, but it's really how they finish. They're a really strong team.
• 11:05
  I have a lot of respect for the Bengals. Sure it's like a
• 11:07
  rival, so of course I'm gonna talk down on the Bengals, but they're
• 11:13
  a really good team. You just look at him. Joe Burrow missed four
• 11:18
  passes yesterday and through three touchdowns, and he rushed and I mean hear us.
• 11:22
  He threw three touchdowns. If you have almost as many touchdowns as incompletions,
• 11:26
  I think that's a very good day for your quarterback. And then and
• 11:30
  then Jamar Chase is starting is finally starting to heat up, start and finally
• 11:33
  get his rhythm, going ten for one hundred and a touchdown. It's just
• 11:37
  and then the number two T Higgins fy for sixty nine, Tyler boy through
• 11:39
  for forty that's what you want from your Big three. It's the production,
• 11:43
  production, production, and Joe Mixon just always look like a service, serviceable
• 11:46
  back that he always is. But as for the forty nine ers, I
• 11:50
  think it's a little bit. I don't know if it's time to panic,
• 11:52
  because I think they'll still make the playoffs, but dropping three straight, if
• 11:56
  they're not in control of their football games, this is when rock Perty starts
• 11:58
  making mistakes. The forty nine ers have to start. I feel like ever
• 12:01
  since we put Brock Purty in the MVP conversation, those Yeah, these last
• 12:07
  these last three games are kind of just brought him down a little bit,
• 12:09
  back down to earth. But I expect them to figure things out. They
• 12:13
  are, they do have the roster, they have the coach. It's just
• 12:16
  a matter of time. And I think who they play next week, I
• 12:20
  haven't looked, but I'm appreciate it. They get back on track. The
• 12:24
  oh no, so the Niners, they have a bye week, then they
• 12:28
  go, okay, Jacksonville, so that's not all. They can't well,
• 12:31
  they can't lose next week, so you know, maybe that will help them
• 12:35
  out. So but the Beagles are back on track. They are they are
• 12:39
  re establishing themselves as one of the best teams. They just have a little
• 12:41
  high road to climb back on because the Ravens are kind of pulling away from
• 12:45
  this division right now. Not pulling away. I guess it's just a one
• 12:48
  game difference or to one and a half game district difference in Cincinnati. So
• 12:52
  yeah, yeah, that's gonna be big. Yeah. I don't know what
• 12:56
  it is. I guess for Joe Burrow being this good, he always says
• 13:01
  these first two three games, I guess ayre not gonna matter. But like
• 13:03
  you said, now that the Bengals are able to run the football, that's
• 13:07
  what's been getting them in these deep playoff runs. Joe Mixon being able to
• 13:11
  run the ball effectively sixteen carries, eighty seven yards five point four yards of
• 13:16
  carry, and even Joe Burrow with his legs had forty three rushing yards,
• 13:20
  and even his mobility in the pocket that first drive of the game where he
• 13:24
  broke out of that Lamar Jackson out there, Yeah, I know, he
• 13:28
  looked like Lamark Jackson. I'm just kidding, but actually broke out of Eric
• 13:33
  Armstead and Nick Bosa sack and then he he scrambled right and threw a Dota
• 13:37
  T Higgins on the run. So it's like, yeah, no, after
• 13:41
  that, you knew that the Bengals they were cooking. But as far as
• 13:45
  with the Niners, I guess that's kind of what I was saying last week.
• 13:50
  I don't know, I don't know what it is. I'm not as
• 13:52
  far as big into narratives as far as that, but it feels like the
• 13:56
  Niners, like they won their Super Bowl against the That's what it feels like.
• 14:01
  Even though the Niners they've been there consistently, they haven't won a championship
• 14:05
  since nineteen ninety five, and they're always just just short. And also another
• 14:11
  big stat is Kyle Shanahan. He's oh and twenty seven when trailing the fourth
• 14:15
  trailing in the fourth quarter by three plus points. So that's a big stat
• 14:18
  right there. Yes, no, it sounds crazy, but that's a real
• 14:22
  stat right there. So yeah, like you said, they have to stick
• 14:26
  to the game plan. And another thing is that, Okay, so you
• 14:31
  had Robert Sala two years ago, then you had Damiico Ryans last year,
• 14:35
  and now you have Steve Wilkes. So there's only so much you could change
• 14:41
  your coordinators around before it starts affecting your personnel and the culture. Yeah,
• 14:46
  and the culture. And I just I just thought about it, Okay.
• 14:50
  Robert Sala he was a linebackers coach, so he plays part of the front
• 14:54
  seven, all right, Jamiko Ryans, he was a linebacker coach, part
• 14:58
  of the front seven. Steve Wilkes, he's been or he was a defensive
• 15:01
  back and he's a DB's coach. So what do dbs really think, Oh,
• 15:05
  they think about oh as far as getting in the coverage, as far
• 15:09
  as playing zone, not really blitzing. And this team they strive or they're
• 15:15
  strong on their front seven, so they need a blitz or they need to
• 15:18
  rush the pass or put their ears back and just let them do what they
• 15:22
  have to do. And one thing that shows this is Nick Bosa. He
• 15:26
  has some of the most pressures in the league. I think it's forty four,
• 15:31
  but he only has two and a half sacks. Get home, Yeah,
• 15:35
  you have to get home right there. So as far as with this
• 15:39
  offense right here, as much as I want to criticize Brock Purdy, I
• 15:45
  think, yeah, we're just hyping them up too much. He is what
• 15:48
  we think he is. He's a game manager who sometimes can be looking great
• 15:52
  at times at a top ten quarterback level. Yeah. Yeah, And whenever
• 16:00
  or Trent Williams and Deebo Samuel they get back, he's gonna look like Brock
• 16:03
  Purdy what he did previously. Now we just know is that Brock Purdy he's
• 16:07
  not the quarterback that we thought he was going to be. And now with
• 16:14
  Cincinnati, so I'm gonna read you their next four games. So you have
• 16:18
  Buffalo Sunday night in Cincinnati, which should be a good game right there.
• 16:22
  I'm glad on each other. Yeah, they probably will. Then you have
• 16:27
  the Texans, then you have the Ravens, and then you have the Steelers.
• 16:33
  So that's a tough stretch right there. So they need a win three.
• 16:38
  Yeah, they can go five hundred even after this impressive win right here.
• 16:42
  So is there any concern you think that the Bengals, I know you
• 16:47
  said that they're getting back on track, but is there any type of concern
• 16:51
  that you think will affect them down the stretch or now, Yes, I
• 16:56
  do, because in this AFC, it's always a tie race for these spots
• 17:02
  the AFC, there's really no mistakes that you can make to getting into the
• 17:04
  playoffs because there's like Chiefs, Dolphins, Jags, Ravens, and there has
• 17:12
  to be another team that I'm missing, but they're all six and two.
• 17:15
  And outside of that, there's like four teams with only three losses. So
• 17:19
  the race is like getting like really close right now. It's just a matter
• 17:25
  if you make a mistake one time, it could really mess up your playoff,
• 17:29
  your playoff trajectory, your playoff row to getting to the championship. And
• 17:33
  for the Bengals, with these next four games, it's gonna be a tough
• 17:36
  road. I think they beat the Texans, and I think they beat the
• 17:38
  Stellers, but the Steelers still have a really good defense, The Texans play
• 17:41
  hard, and the Bills and Ravens are really gonna show who the Bengals team
• 17:45
  really is. Yeah, and as of right now, the playoff picture,
• 17:49
  it would be Kansas City, Miami, Jacksonville, Baltimore. That's division leaders
• 17:55
  right there. Than the wild card, you have Buffalo five and three,
• 17:57
  Pittsburgh four and three, Cleveland four and three, and then you have the
• 18:02
  Jets four and three, and then you have the Bengals as a nine seed
• 18:04
  right now, so it's not like even there, they're one back they're two
• 18:08
  backs, so it's even the long road. Yeah. Yeah, it's gonna
• 18:14
  be a long road for them. But any last thoughts on this game right
• 18:18
  here? Uh no, that pretty much sums up everything. I think.
• 18:22
  All right, well, we're getting into this next game right here. I
• 18:26
  know you don't want to talk about this game right here, but we're gonna
• 18:29
  have to know where yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, the Texas are the
• 18:33
  Panthers. Yeah, but we're arguing about this a little bit before. We
• 18:37
  always do this before the podcast starts. We always argue in the text before
• 18:41
  the before like three four hours. I don't know why. It's just I
• 18:45
  guess it's just us getting ready to argue before the podcast. But yeah,
• 18:48
  the Denver Broncos upset the Kansas City Chiefs in Denver twenty four to nine,
• 18:56
  in which there was five total turnovers by the Chiefs. Are you concerned with
• 19:00
  the Chiefs or is this just an outlier game. I'm not gonna say that
• 19:06
  I'm concerned because going into this point of the season, last year we were
• 19:10
  six and two. We lost to an ugly game to the Colts last year.
• 19:14
  This I think this one stings a little bit more because the Broncos had
• 19:17
  a rough start to the season, but over the last couple of games they
• 19:21
  have really shown that they are a different team from what they started. But
• 19:23
  there's no excuses to why we should lose this game. We have beaten up
• 19:26
  this team for eight straight years. What seventeen straight wins on this team.
• 19:32
  But let me tell you why we lost this game. The receivers and lack
• 19:37
  of Mahomes. Lack of trust in these receivers because we saw the receiver we
• 19:40
  saw Nbs. I can't hear you. I have it on Mike No,
• 19:45
  I have it on Mike. No. I'm not laughing at my bad,
• 19:48
  bad moving. I was like, uh, you're the receivers. The receivers
• 19:56
  and Mahomes. Lack of trust in these receivers. This is I think if
• 20:03
  the Chiefs would be eight and zer right now if these receivers didn't make the
• 20:07
  mistakes that they did in this game. Nbs catches the first first down,
• 20:12
  turns his back, gets pop fumbles and the Chiefs forty two that pick it
• 20:17
  up that the Denver takes it to their own forty eight and they go and
• 20:18
  score on that play Mahomes and then when Mahomes threw an interception. That's on
• 20:23
  Mahomes. The first interception he throws into bracket coverage. And I think this
• 20:27
  is where the lack of the trust and the receivers comes into play, because
• 20:30
  there was an open sky more and there was an open I believe it was
• 20:36
  I think it might have been NBS on the left side of the field.
• 20:38
  They kind of he instead of throwing these anticipation routes that were used to seeing
• 20:41
  Mahomes throwing where he hits the receivers as soon as they break out their route.
• 20:45
  He kind of looked them off, like, I don't know if they
• 20:45
  could make that play, turned to Kelsey and forced the football throw into bracket
• 20:49
  coverage. Kelsey was getting triple team, double team this entire game, and
• 20:53
  they led to an interception, and then that led they to the to the
• 20:59
  Denver Broncos starting at the chief at their own forty six. So that's already
• 21:03
  two plays, two drives in a row where the Broncos start in their own
• 21:07
  territory. It's not a recipe for wins. And then Raci Rice, who
• 21:11
  I harp on still, I think has had the best season of any of
• 21:14
  these Chiefs receivers has had a really good rookie season heading into this point.
• 21:18
  He dropped a first down, we see sky Moore drop a touchdown, and
• 21:21
  then we see our acquisition, our veteran on the team, Mkole Hardman fumble
• 21:26
  uppunt at the eight yard line. You can't do that. And then they
• 21:30
  turn around Courtland Sun touchdown to start the fourth quarter. That puts the game
• 21:34
  kind of out of reach at that point in the fourth quarter. It's just
• 21:38
  a it wasn't a good game all the way around. We see one of
• 21:41
  these games once a year from the Chiefs, and I just hate that it
• 21:45
  happened to the Broncos. It sucks. It sucks. It sucks. But
• 21:48
  and plus, we need to run the dang football. None of these tricks
• 21:49
  plays. Bert. Yeah. No, Like I was telling you a little
• 21:57
  bit earlier, this isn't a defense problem. Like you said, They were
• 22:00
  just starting in their own territory. So it's just momentum shifting Denver. Yeah,
• 22:06
  go ahead. Yeah, the Chiefs throughout this whole game, we're only
• 22:10
  giving up three point six yards per per play to the Broncos. That is
• 22:15
  an insane number because the league leaguing by the Ravens is four point one yards
• 22:18
  per carry per not per carry per play. Three point six is insane to
• 22:22
  hold a team too. And we just when you start in, when they
• 22:26
  start in their own territory every single drive, it just doesn't help the defense
• 22:29
  out at all. Yeah, this defense they played great. They had six
• 22:33
  total sacks, seven tackle for losses, and it's just this isn't I'm not
• 22:38
  trying to blame Patrick Mahomes specifically, I'm just saying as an offense and hole,
• 22:44
  it's it's an entire problem. And the receivers, obviously they need to
• 22:48
  be better. You could argue that they could be eight to zero if the
• 22:52
  whole Kadarius Tony the first game and then this game right here. But just
• 22:57
  as far as Mahomes, don't get me wrong, nobody quote me on or
• 23:02
  quote or misquote me on this. Mahomes is still the best quarterback in the
• 23:06
  league by far, but he is not playing up to his standards as he
• 23:10
  should. And I feel like if he did, then they would be able
• 23:15
  to overcome these games. Maybe not Detroit because we see Detroit they are for
• 23:18
  real, but this game right here they should have And just that last interception,
• 23:25
  Uh, they were just forcing it or he was just forcing it right
• 23:27
  there. So yes, it's counting. Yeah, it's just on the box
• 23:33
  score. So if you just look at it, Oh, he had two
• 23:34
  interceptions, but really it was two turnovers right here where it really cost him
• 23:38
  the fumble. The fumble, they were getting close to scoring the touchdown right
• 23:44
  there and he just got stripsacked. And but it happens. There's just bad
• 23:49
  games. And I'm not trying to bring this back to the Cowboys, but
• 23:53
  there's always ugly losses, like how the Cowboys lost to the Cardinals, the
• 23:57
  Ravens lost to the Colts, the Niners, they lost to the Browns,
• 24:02
  Vikings. They're still some of the best teams in the league. It's just
• 24:06
  their ugly losses, even the Eagles and Jets. It just happens. It's
• 24:08
  any given Sunday. And as far as from the Broncos side, there wasn't
• 24:15
  really there wasn't really much offensively. Defensively, you could say, obviously they
• 24:22
  wreaked havoc right there, But Denver Broncos, after that seventy point game right
• 24:26
  there, they've kind of reverted back to Norman as far as that tough,
• 24:30
  stingy defense. Yeah, yeah, no, especially yeah, after that but
• 24:37
  no, the Denver Broncos defense, they're going back to Norman as far as
• 24:41
  being that stingy defense top ten at worst, but as far as this offense,
• 24:48
  even watching this game, there's still no trust in Russell Wilson. He
• 24:52
  only had nineteen total passes. So Sean Payton basically said, keep the ball
• 24:56
  out of Russell Wilson's hands. Wait, what good eighteen yards? He only
• 25:00
  enter for like one hundred and eighteen yards, one hundred and fourteen yards killing
• 25:03
  fourteen that if that doesn't show gamescript with them being in their own territory and
• 25:10
  like just them running the ball, it's just rus I don't know if Peyton
• 25:12
  and Rust Wilson have the connection. Yeah, no, they definitely don't.
• 25:15
  And it's just Sean Payton. He's saying, Hey, I do not trust
• 25:19
  this guy. We're gonna run the ball literally forty times, even though we're
• 25:23
  not averaging or three point eight yards of carry, we're not gonna pay Yeah,
• 25:29
  well, it says right here, yeah, three point eight yards of
• 25:32
  carry. So but after forty carries, which you're just saying, yeah,
• 25:36
  no, I hope, so yeah, yeah, keep the ball out of
• 25:38
  his hands because he's gonna do something where it could end up killing us.
• 25:42
  And yeah, he fumbled twice. And even though the Broncos there three and
• 25:48
  five, you have the bye week, then you have the Bills, the
• 25:52
  Vikings, the Browns, the Texans, the Chargers, the Lions, so
• 25:57
  it's a tough schedule. They're not gonna make no playoff run. Even though
• 26:02
  they beat Kansas City. It's just a bad game Kansas City. They they
• 26:06
  weren't playing good. I don't know if you could say Mahomes was sick.
• 26:10
  Taylor Swift wasn't there, so Kelsey wasn't on his a game. No,
• 26:14
  don't start, guy, Don't be one of those Hey, hey you saw
• 26:18
  this. That hurt me so bad. At the end of the game when
• 26:21
  they said Taylor Swift was in the audience and they showed up his stat line,
• 26:23
  bawl bla. He's been the best tight end in the NFL for seven
• 26:27
  straight years. Bro, just because one one season he gets a girlfriend that's
• 26:33
  probably the most famous pop star in the world and now everything's on her.
• 26:37
  Oh my gosh, you didn't know how. I was already angry and that
• 26:40
  popped up. It made me even more angry. No, I just said
• 26:42
  it on purpose because I already know it probably gets under Chiefs, or it
• 26:45
  gets gets Chiefs real fans, real football fans, skin, it gets underneath
• 26:52
  Yeah, I just do it just for fun. But all right, we're
• 26:56
  gonna go ahead and get into this next game. Right here. It was
• 27:00
  the last three twenty five game, which is a Baltimore Ravens versus the Arizona
• 27:03
  Cardinals, in which it was a closer game than what people expected and it
• 27:07
  was thirty one to twenty four. What did you take away from this game
• 27:11
  right here? I just think these Cardinals are just a stingy team. They
• 27:17
  just like like to give give the good teams a little scare every once in
• 27:21
  a while. It's kind of what the Texans were last year, where they
• 27:23
  were like with the Cowboys, with the Chiefs and a couple of other teams
• 27:27
  where they took them to overtime, took them to the very last possession.
• 27:30
  It's what the Cardinals are doing. Like, I don't think they're necessarily trying
• 27:33
  to win, but they're not trying to lose either, so it's like they're
• 27:37
  kind of stuck. But the Ravens had an off game, Lamar Jackson Alpha
• 27:41
  coming just like my homes off of coming like these really big games that they
• 27:44
  had last week where we were me and you were arguing who was MVP Lamar
• 27:48
  or Jackson. Came back came a little bit bit back down to earth.
• 27:52
  Eighteen for twenty seven, one fifty seven yards, throwing one touchdown on the
• 27:56
  ground, five for seventeen. Lamar Jackson's gonna get more than in any other
• 28:00
  game. It's just it was a little off week. We saw Trey mcbrizzy
• 28:03
  on the Cardinals get a little bit busy, you know, so he it
• 28:08
  was a it was a cool little game. The passing game wasn't really clicking.
• 28:11
  Jay Flowers only average three point eight yards per catch off of five catches.
• 28:15
  So I think they'll get back on track next week. They still won
• 28:19
  the game, obviously. It was just a weird trap game by the Arizona
• 28:23
  Cardinals. Yeah, it just happens. It's it's like you said, the
• 28:29
  perfect trap game after going off your best victory of the year and where you
• 28:33
  blow out the Lions. Yeah, it's you're just expected to let down.
• 28:37
  But they were still able to run the ball one hundred and thirty total yards
• 28:41
  four point five yards to carry, but shout out to Gus Edwards because he
• 28:44
  had three touchdowns. I was actually playing against him, so actually, don't
• 28:48
  shout out to Gus Edwards. I needed those Lamar Jackson touchdowns right there.
• 28:52
  But yeah, no, they're gonna be better, Ravens are. They have
• 28:57
  a tough game next week again Seattle, so we'll see how that goes right
• 29:02
  there. Yeah, that's gonna be a good one right there. But they
• 29:04
  just made a big acquisition. Yeah, and we'll we'll talk about that in
• 29:10
  a yeah second, right, but yeah, like you were saying Arizona,
• 29:15
  they just say, oh, well, we're gonna play you tough. We
• 29:18
  could show you how good this team could be. But and we're not gonna
• 29:21
  win this game. And just shout out to Joshua Dobs because it already got
• 29:25
  reported that he's not going to be playing this next week. It was eight
• 29:29
  games that he started, and he was a solid quarterback. I'm not saying
• 29:34
  he's, oh he's top fifteen or whatever, but like you're, like you
• 29:38
  messaged me earlier, he's just a solid backup who's gonna be able to just
• 29:45
  stay in this league. Because I know he had two interceptions, but it's
• 29:48
  the Ravens defense at the end of the day. Yeah, he's been good.
• 29:52
  The record it really doesn't show how good he's really been. And with
• 29:56
  a bad team. Let's let's let's be honest about this. Everybody they thought
• 30:03
  before the year, Oh they they're gonna finish one in fifteen or two two
• 30:07
  and oh no two and fifteen. Yeah no, I'm getting this eighteen game
• 30:12
  schedule mixed up. But yeah, no, he didn't have the best team
• 30:15
  around him to support him. So yeah, just shout out to him.
• 30:22
  All right, we're gonna go in and get into this next game. Right
• 30:25
  here. It was the other three o'clock game and the last one the Cleveland
• 30:30
  Browns versus the Seattle Seahawks, in which late Jackson Smith and Jigbuzz scored to
• 30:37
  put the Seahawks up twenty four to twenty. I believe there was about thirty
• 30:41
  seconds left in the game, which they won. What was your biggest takeaway
• 30:45
  from this game right here? Do you think that the Seahawks they're legit now
• 30:48
  after this game right here? Yep? They are the legit team. They
• 30:56
  are the leaders in the NFC West, so they're gonna start getting moving.
• 31:03
  We've already been high on the met and you have been high on the Seahawks
• 31:04
  the past couple of weeks, especially since Devin with thisbune has come by.
• 31:07
  He's really changed his defense quite a bit. I'm not gonna lie. Yeah,
• 31:11
  you allow them to do things they weren't they weren't doing before, and
• 31:15
  it was a good win, and they're they're starting to get jacksonth and jig,
• 31:18
  but still sitting around that sixty five percent snap share that he's been where
• 31:22
  he's been playing sixty five percent of the snaps, So he's starting to make
• 31:26
  his way up a little bit. DK Metcalf coming off injury, had five
• 31:29
  for sixty seven. Tyl Lockett had that big day that he has won every
• 31:32
  other game. Eight for eighty one in a touchdown helps out, especially against
• 31:36
  this Cleveland Browns defense, who we think who a lot think may be the
• 31:40
  best in the NFL, but I think the Browns still lack that quarterback man.
• 31:45
  They need a quarterback and Deshaun Watson doesn't look like the answer. He
• 31:49
  can't stay on the field. He hasn't shown to be productive when he is
• 31:52
  on the field. PJ. Walker, much like Josh Dobbs, playing good,
• 31:56
  but they are just backups. They are not gonna win you, sir
• 31:59
  Bowl. They are not gonna make you deep playoff run. And then I
• 32:00
  think the with Kareem Hunt playing for the Browns, their running game is a
• 32:06
  little mixed up right now because Jeron Ford was playing, but he was still
• 32:08
  banged up. So we'll see where this or they go next week with the
• 32:10
  with the running game and uh, these receivers, they have a good quarter
• 32:15
  of receivers, Marik Cooper, Elijah Moore, Donovan, People's jones. They
• 32:20
  just need a quarterback to get them the football. And so yeah, that's
• 32:22
  my biggest takeaway for the for this game. The Seattle Seahawks keep rolling.
• 32:27
  People, don't panic if you have Kennys Walker shares. I get Zach Charbonay
• 32:30
  really showed up pretty good in this game, but still have five carries.
• 32:34
  People, let's not get a little ahead of ourselves. Yeah. I know,
• 32:37
  it's just the Cleveland Browns. Their defense was so good, so and
• 32:40
  I'm surprised that the Seahawks are actually able to run the ball that well one
• 32:45
  hundred and fourteen yards total in six point se Walter and Zach Scharbarnet's averages per
• 32:50
  carry were pretty good eight point three and ten point three. That's pretty good
• 32:53
  against the Browns. Yeah, no, I'm looking at that. That's I
• 32:57
  wouldn't have expected that right there. But yeah, I know Gino Smith he's
• 33:01
  proven more and more, especially this year, that it wasn't a fluke and
• 33:06
  he's on that fringe of a top ten quarterback level. I'm not saying he
• 33:12
  is, but as far as on days on certain days, I know he
• 33:16
  had two interceptions, but yeah, he can be if he's playing like this.
• 33:21
  This was a big game right here, because the Cleveland Browns they're a
• 33:24
  legit team. I'm not saying, oh, super Bowl contender, but they're
• 33:28
  a playoff viable team. And for the Seahawks, if they really want to
• 33:32
  be where they want to be, you gotta beat teams like this, and
• 33:37
  now this just shows that, especially after San Francisco they've lost these three games,
• 33:42
  you still got to play Seattle twice. So Seattle is looking more and
• 33:45
  more likely that they're going to win this division. And like you brought up
• 33:50
  earlier, they just traded for Leonard Williams, so they beefed up their defensive
• 33:54
  line even more, in which it's a nasty, nasty defense already. So
• 34:00
  they're basically saying, all right, well, San Francisco, you're gonna have
• 34:02
  to face us right here. And I feel like they match up perfect with
• 34:07
  them because Gino Smith they're brock pretty Yeah, I take Gino Smith obviously off
• 34:15
  total offense, obviously the Niners right there, if they're fully healthy, then
• 34:19
  defense seems needs a big difference in that. Yeah, he's a big difference.
• 34:24
  But defense, man, I don't know the way that the Seahawks they've
• 34:28
  been playing lately. I think I prefer the Seahawks defense over the Niners defense.
• 34:32
  I don't know about you, josh Uh. I think if the Niners
• 34:37
  can figure out how to get this pass rust going again, I may say
• 34:39
  differently, but right now they're neck and neck with each other, I think,
• 34:43
  and where I think who is better. Devon withersbrew and Leonard Williams,
• 34:46
  Terry killing, Condre Diggs, Jamal Adams. Like they're all healthy, they're
• 34:52
  all moving, they're all trying to get this thing. They're trying to make
• 34:54
  a run, and I think they can make a run. I think are
• 34:58
  back to being a good team in the NFL. Man, And it just
• 35:01
  makes Russell Wilson look more and more like a system quarterback. Man. Imagine
• 35:06
  losing to Russell Wilson. Man, that would suck. All right, anyway
• 35:09
  was a wizard yep. But all right, we're gonna go and get onto
• 35:14
  the twelve o'clock games. It was a Philadelphia Eagles versus the Washington Commanders,
• 35:19
  and I don't know what it is, just these two games that they played
• 35:22
  each other, they were both shootout games. And with Sam Howe he always
• 35:25
  looks like a top five quarterback against the Eagles secondary. I don't know why,
• 35:30
  but yeah, I know the Eagles they won thirty eight to thirty one.
• 35:32
  What were your takeaways from this game? Right here? How you said?
• 35:37
  With the Commanders and Eagles, this goes back to last year. The
• 35:39
  Commanders gave the Eagles their first loss last year where Taylor Heineck kind of shut
• 35:44
  up and shut it all down for the Eagles, And this year Sam Howell's
• 35:46
  decide deciding in these games. I'm him. He is good. He's a
• 35:51
  very good quarterback. I think I think he's gonna surprise a lot of people
• 35:52
  in the next couple of years if they continue to progress with him. Of
• 36:00
  course, he has all the arm talent in the world to make any throw
• 36:04
  in the world. I think he's up there. I think with arm talent,
• 36:07
  with the Herberts, Mahomes and Josh Allens, because he can put it
• 36:10
  into some buckets. He can sling that thing. I've seen some things where
• 36:14
  he puts it into triple covers perfect on the money. I'm not saying that
• 36:16
  he has the same IQ. I'm not saying that he makes the same plays,
• 36:20
  but pere arm talent. There's the reason why Zach Wilson and Will Levis
• 36:22
  get drafted pretty high. But you know they they showed out. They showed
• 36:29
  up in this game. Johan dottson a for one to eight, one touchdown.
• 36:31
  I dropped him in every Fantasy league he produced in Fantasy this week,
• 36:36
  Terry McLaurin decides to decides to show up always against the Eagles. He's like
• 36:40
  the Eagles kryptonite when it comes to guarding receivers. But the Eagles still get
• 36:45
  the job done. This might have been Jalen Hurts his best game of the
• 36:49
  year so far, and that's twenty nine for thirty eight three nineteen four touchdowns.
• 36:53
  The rushing game still is the rushing game. They dictate that they don't
• 36:58
  it will not necessarily always look with their running game, but it dictates everything
• 37:01
  that they do. AJ Brown continues his historic pace of having like one hundred
• 37:06
  and twenty five yards every single game besides his first game of this season Davonte
• 37:10
  Smith. Once you get Davonte Smith involved into this offense, I think this
• 37:15
  offense becomes very scary. And this is what happened. They scored thirty eight
• 37:19
  points and he had seven catches ninety nine yards on seven targets. It was
• 37:22
  one hundred percent completion rate. Went throwing to Davonte Smith yesterday. And that's
• 37:28
  a recipe for all Eagles wins. And that's getting these two on track.
• 37:34
  Yeah. No, And like you were saying, Jalen hurts and he put
• 37:37
  himself kind of back in the MVP conversation right here this and he was able
• 37:43
  to stay away from the turnovers. I know, the tush push when they
• 37:45
  were about to score. He did fumble right there. But other than that,
• 37:49
  it was a it was a clean game and aj Brown if it wasn't
• 37:53
  for Tyreek Hill right now, he would be talked about as far as the
• 37:59
  best wide receiver in the league and as far as potentially MVP conversation just Tyreek
• 38:04
  kill first receiver to one thousand yards, which is ridiculous, and just those
• 38:08
  snags that Aj Brown was making. And as as much as I hate to
• 38:13
  admit it, the Eagles they find a way to win these close, tough
• 38:16
  games right here, no matter how how it takes, if it takes you
• 38:21
  running the ball, if it takes Jayalen just dropping back, yeah, it's
• 38:24
  just leadership and showing that you're a contender. And AJ Brown he kind of
• 38:31
  reminds me of a faster version of des Bryant as far as somebody who could
• 38:37
  go up and go get it, I'd say, a better route runner,
• 38:42
  and just that jump ball ability you saw with those two touchdowns right there.
• 38:45
  Those were des Bryant esque right there. And also the fake push push right
• 38:52
  there. That's something that I didn't expect to scary. Yeah, hold on,
• 38:57
  what game was it earlier in the year where they tried but some one
• 39:00
  of the guys jumped offside or h fall started and they called it back earlier
• 39:07
  this Yeah, yeah, they tried it. Remember Trey Aikman was like,
• 39:09
  I don't know, I think that's something y'all keeping the keeping the because they
• 39:14
  because they were already up by so many points, and they were like,
• 39:16
  I think that's something that's something you're keeping a little and they and they,
• 39:19
  and they tried it against the Commanders and it worked. It's a little scary,
• 39:22
  Yeah, I know, it is scary because now what the hell are
• 39:24
  you supposed to do? And now now the Eagles they have the best record
• 39:29
  in the league seven and one. And there was a report that came out
• 39:34
  It talked about Jalen Hurts as far as his knee, and you saw it
• 39:37
  a little bit earlier in the game, especially when he was running. He
• 39:39
  didn't have that mobility. Obviously, it didn't stop him from being good,
• 39:45
  but as far as that X factor to him, what makes them even more
• 39:49
  special is him being able to run out of the pocket or use his legs.
• 39:52
  So do you think that's gonna affect them long term or you think that
• 39:55
  it's something they could just pass by? Hey, am I am? I
• 40:01
  not. Last year he dealt with the the shoulder. Right the shoulder he
• 40:06
  got hurt. He hurt last year, so it kind of he kind of
• 40:09
  dealt with it all the way up to the Super Bowl last year, and
• 40:12
  you can kind of tell it his game faltered a little bit towards the end
• 40:15
  of the season in the playoffs. Good thing this is happening kind of in
• 40:17
  the middle of the season right now. I think they play this game this
• 40:22
  next week coming up versus the Dallas Cowboys, correct and then and then they
• 40:28
  they go into a bye week, so maybe this will give him time to
• 40:30
  rest. He worked on it for an hour after the game, they reported.
• 40:34
  They worked on it for an hour after the game, they reported.
• 40:37
  And uh, it's just something to monitor because maybe that's why they ran the
• 40:40
  fake touch push because he wasn't He probably don't want to generate too much power,
• 40:45
  They don't want to bring too much weight down on his leg. So
• 40:47
  I think they're gonna really be really cautious with him throughout these next coming weeks.
• 40:51
  He only had four rush attempts this game and it was only for sixty
• 40:53
  yards, So we'll just we'll just see how it plays out going into next
• 40:57
  week in a big in a big division game that has a lot at stake.
• 41:00
  Yeah, And as far as with his shoulder, that's something you could
• 41:05
  kind of get away with because you're still able to run. But this is
• 41:08
  his knee right here, it's what it's what makes it a different, different
• 41:14
  level because now I'm not saying you're gonna be able to stop them, but
• 41:17
  now you're gonna be like, all right, well we could. We don't
• 41:21
  have to worry about Jalen Hurts rolling out of the pocket when the play is
• 41:23
  broken. He's gonna be a little bit, uh, gimpy as far as
• 41:29
  just being as dynamic as it usually is. But I think they're still gonna
• 41:34
  win these games, and and yeah, I know this is their this is
• 41:37
  their tough part of the schedule right here, So I don't think you really
• 41:40
  can take it easy. I feel like you're gonna have to gear it up
• 41:44
  because they're they're gonna see these next four games if they are the team that
• 41:50
  they were last year, Because you have the Cowboys, like you mentioned,
• 41:53
  a primetime game, then you have the Chiefs Monday night, Then you have
• 41:57
  the Bills a primetime game, then you have the Niners, and then you
• 42:00
  have the Cowboys again, and then not to mention Seattle after that. So
• 42:06
  yeah, this is their tough part of the schedule, So you really can't
• 42:08
  dial it back with Jalen Hurts. You you kind of have to go all
• 42:13
  gas, no breaks, because I know We're gonna talk about the Cowboys later.
• 42:15
  But this right here is basically for the number one seed right here,
• 42:20
  with San Francisco falling and the Eagles and Cowboys being able to face Detroit in
• 42:25
  which probably they both be favored against Detroit. But more importantly, this is
• 42:30
  for the This is for the division because both teams are gonna have really good
• 42:34
  records. But if the second place team becomes the fifth seed, they play
• 42:38
  another really good team, Yeah, exactly in the conference. So it's gonna
• 42:44
  be it's a lot weighing on the on the on the schedule, yeah,
• 42:47
  and then that bye week now that it's only one team, it's very crucial.
• 42:51
  So we're gonna see how bad this injury really is for Jalen Hurts.
• 42:55
  But hopefully it's nothing serious. Hopefully he gets healthy. I never wish injuries
• 43:00
  upon another team, even though it's a rival or anything. At the end
• 43:04
  of the day, there it's football. It's not that serious. But all
• 43:07
  right, we're gonna go ahead and get into this next game. It was
• 43:10
  a New Orleans Saints versus the Indianapolis Colts. And I don't know what it
• 43:15
  is with the Colts. I guess they just like getting in high scoring games
• 43:17
  and just playing no defense. And yeah, the Saints say one thirty at
• 43:22
  twenty seven. What are your takeaways from this game? Jonathan Taylor first half
• 43:29
  twelve for ninety five. Jonathan Taylor second half zero for zero. What that's
• 43:34
  my biggest takeaway from this game? How do you How does your sixteen million
• 43:37
  dollars a year running back now get the ball in the second half. I
• 43:39
  get Zach Moss's balling, but he ain't balling that much. Like come on,
• 43:43
  like he is, but he's not Jonathan Taylor. He's the reason why
• 43:45
  you pay There's a reason why you pay him all that money. Give him
• 43:49
  the football you might win this game of johnthan Taylor can dictate the football game.
• 43:52
  But outside of that, for the Saints, the Derek Carr after having
• 43:58
  a really rough week last week, he played a little bit better this week.
• 44:01
  Not three ten two touchdowns. But my biggest takeaway is Alvin Kamara continues
• 44:07
  to be the MVP of this team. He continues to put them on his
• 44:10
  back. But what's even crazier that Taysom Hill, one of the players I
• 44:13
  hate the most in the world, is rushing for nine for sixty three and
• 44:19
  two touchdowns while throwing a forty four yard pass and then catching a fourteen catching
• 44:24
  a pass for fourteen yards. He's just to do it all. Last week
• 44:28
  he had what like eight targets to something like crazy like that, and then
• 44:32
  this week he rushes for nine times for sixty three yards. He's the biggest
• 44:37
  X factor on the Saints team. You can't really game playing for something like
• 44:39
  that, and I think that's what separates them sometimes. Yeah, Taysom Hill,
• 44:44
  he does everything. He catches, passes, special teams, plays,
• 44:47
  quarterback, running back, He mops the floors, make sure all the equipment
• 44:52
  it's ready for the players. So yeah, he's just a do it all
• 44:54
  guy. And I guess that's why you pay him thirty million dollars because you're
• 44:58
  getting your money as worth for it because he's literally doing every damn thing for
• 45:01
  you. But yeah, I know, like you're saying, Alvin Kamara,
• 45:06
  he's just on a different level right now. And if you have him in
• 45:10
  fantasy football, Derek Carr, he just loves the checkdown. So yeah,
• 45:14
  it's either the checkdown or the deep ball. That's all it is right there.
• 45:16
  And Rashid Shaheed finally, finally, they're clicking as far as with the
• 45:22
  deep ball right there, because they're starting to double cover Chris o'lave. So
• 45:28
  yeah, you're gonna get those open, open catches right there. Rashid Shaheed
• 45:30
  had three catch one hundred and fifty three yards. So it's something that adds
• 45:36
  a different element to their team. And they're four and four the division.
• 45:40
  That's not that good. You have Atlanta, the Buccaneers, and the Panthers.
• 45:45
  We'll talk about them in a second, but yeah, I know they
• 45:50
  should still win this division even though they haven't looked so good. I know,
• 45:54
  I know. But at the end of the day, you support had
• 46:00
  have the best quarterback in the league or not in the well, not in
• 46:04
  the league, in the division, in the division, no no, no,
• 46:07
  no, no no no no no no no, no, no,
• 46:08
  no no. You have the best quarterback in the division. Yeah no,
• 46:14
  definitely not in the league maybe, yeah, right. But as far as
• 46:22
  from the Colts, Gardner minshew, I feel like he always does this whenever
• 46:25
  he starts for a couple of games, he has his great starts like he
• 46:30
  did against the Ravens or whenever he came in, and then even last week
• 46:37
  against the Browns, he looked great, but now he's shown why he's a
• 46:39
  backup. And I also don't think he should be thrown for forty one times
• 46:45
  in one game. Yeah no, I get that one hundred percent. But
• 46:49
  who knows, maybe Shane Steichen he thinks he still has Jalen Hurts. I
• 46:52
  don't know. But another thing that I want to mention is just Josh Dowen.
• 46:57
  He continues to be just just a rookie wide receiver who continues to just
• 47:04
  dominate. And I think that now as far as with the Za Flowers,
• 47:07
  Jordan Addison, the Puka Nakua was, he's starting to get up there in
• 47:13
  that range right there as far as being not necessarily the best wide receiver in
• 47:16
  the class, but being in that tier one because he's being consistent and he
• 47:22
  would just overlook, he was drafted in the third round, right if I'm
• 47:24
  not mistaken. So yeah, they got a good weapon right there. And
• 47:30
  again you don't have Anthony Richardson. So just preparing for next year, that's
• 47:37
  really all it is. But all right, we're gonna go ahead and get
• 47:40
  into this next game. It was the Minnesota Vikings versus the Green Bay Packers,
• 47:45
  and with the Vikings, they won twenty four to ten. Yes,
• 47:49
  they did win, but like kind of like the Thanos means lost, what
• 47:52
  did it cost everything? They lost Kirk Cousins. He's out for the year,
• 47:58
  tore his achilles. He gets better soon. But what is your biggest
• 48:01
  takeaway from this game? Other than the Kirk Cousins injury? Okay, fine,
• 48:08
  I just think the what is my biggest takeaway besides that? Jordan Addison
• 48:15
  continues to crush it? What the heck? Random ass down in the back.
• 48:24
  Jordan Addison continues to crush it seven forty two in a touchdown. He's
• 48:29
  continued to show why he was the first round receiver many believed to be the
• 48:31
  first the best receiver in that draft in the draft, not saying everybody,
• 48:36
  but many did believe that. And he's really showing out without even he was
• 48:39
  even showing when Justin Jefferson was there, and now without Justin Jefferson, and
• 48:43
  when he comes back, if Justin Jefferson chooses to stay on this team,
• 48:47
  they're gonna have a really solid one two tandem on the On the outsides,
• 48:52
  TJ. Hawkinson continues to be mister consistent that he is, even without it
• 48:57
  being National tight end day, he still has six forty eight and a touchdown.
• 49:01
  The runny games to a little bit a little bit better. They are
• 49:05
  average in total two yards per carry with the cat Makers and Alexander Madison.
• 49:09
  Especially now that Kirk Cousins is going out and they're probably going to have to
• 49:13
  make a move. That runie game needs to pick it up. Yeah,
• 49:17
  and I know we talked about it a little bit earlier, but Kyler Murray,
• 49:22
  he's he was a Minnesota Vikings fan, so I know it's kind of
• 49:27
  a long shot. I know the trade deadline is tomorrow. It probably won't
• 49:30
  happen, but just imagining the hypothetical right here, I'm just thinking as far
• 49:36
  as it would be a good move for them long term and for them to
• 49:42
  win. Now, I know Kyler Murray is coming off an injury, but
• 49:45
  you have that contract, you have a franchise quarterback, Kirk Cousins, he's
• 49:47
  on his last year. Yes, I know it's not the way that you
• 49:52
  wanted to end as far as with him having the torn achilles, but sometimes
• 49:57
  owners they don't care. They're ruthless. Business is business, So maybe that
• 50:00
  could happen and you can still compete. But as far as from the Packers
• 50:05
  side, Jordan Love, my goodness, he I don't know. He just
• 50:08
  fooldos those first three games right there. He does not look good at all.
• 50:15
  And this running game, you have more than capable enough running backs and
• 50:19
  aj Dillon, Aaron Jones and Aaron Jones had seven carries twenty nine yards.
• 50:24
  That's still four yards to carry. I don't know if you're not running the
• 50:28
  ball enough or they should be running the ball more, especially because Jordan Love
• 50:32
  he's a rookie quarterback basically because it's his first year starting. Even though he's
• 50:37
  been in the league four years, he's a rookie quarterback. Christian Watson still
• 50:42
  not being able to get involved. Three catches thirty three yards, eight total
• 50:45
  targets, so not very efficient when throwing to him. I don't know if
• 50:51
  they have to scheme him open or just Jordan Love he's just not figuring out
• 50:54
  or he's been figured out. But any other takeaways you take away from this,
• 51:00
  Jordan Love, like I said last week, he takes forever to make
• 51:06
  a decision. I get why people are getting onto Mahomes, but Mahomes is
• 51:10
  the best player to probably ever step on the NFL field. Talent wise,
• 51:15
  there's a reason why he's not trusting the receivers. Jordan Love being a young
• 51:19
  receiver, he doesn't have the arm talent. He doesn't have the experience to
• 51:22
  wait for these guys to come out of their breaks. He doesn't have He
• 51:24
  needs to hit them before the defenders even can make a decision. He's holding
• 51:30
  it long, he's watching them as it goes, has one read forces it
• 51:35
  to that guy. It leads to a deflection, leadst interception. His passing
• 51:38
  percentage drops way down when this happens. At the beginning of the season,
• 51:43
  he was hitting them on stride. He was sitting them before he needed to.
• 51:45
  I don't know what changed. I don't know if his confidence dropped after
• 51:47
  having one bad game, but it just hasn't been looking really great for him
• 51:53
  lately. It's hurting his team over the last what is it, six games,
• 51:59
  five touchdown, eight interceptions. It's just it's just not a good recipe
• 52:05
  for wins because we I thought, really after those couple of games, all
• 52:07
  like they might make a they might make a run for that seventh spot in
• 52:09
  the in the NFC. But it's not gonna happen, especially with this running
• 52:14
  game I get that he was showing signs up throwing great, but he's still,
• 52:19
  like you said, a rookie quarterback, the game is won in the
• 52:21
  trenches. If you're not getting this ball moving on the ground, is not
• 52:24
  going to help your young quarterback out, especially when you have him throw forty
• 52:28
  one times in one game. Much like we talked about Garner Minshew earlier,
• 52:30
  who is a backup. You need to help these guys out, take the
• 52:32
  pressure off of them. Aaron Jones should. There's no reason he should only
• 52:37
  be having seven carries, even after coming off a week where he still was
• 52:40
  resting a little bit. This should be the breakout week that he should have
• 52:43
  had and it just didn't happen. Yeah, and it looks like the Packers
• 52:49
  are kind of going in a slight rebuild and just I guess, just obviously
• 52:53
  Jordan Love he's gonna get a chance next year bearing anything crazy happens as far
• 52:59
  as a market opening. But he did sign an extension too. Oh yeah,
• 53:04
  he did sign an extension. I forgot about that. So yeah,
• 53:08
  I don't know. I'm not necessarily saying tank, but they're not gonna I
• 53:13
  don't know. With the vikings with Kirk Cousins getting hurt the Lions. I
• 53:16
  still believe they're the third best team in the division. Maybe the Bears even
• 53:21
  jumped them because it's not like the Packers have a huge leader. They only
• 53:25
  have one more win than the Bears, so they could possibly be last in
• 53:30
  the division and just get some more weapons around Jordan Love and maybe it'll help
• 53:35
  them out. But all right, we're gonna get into this next game.
• 53:39
  Right here, it was a Carolina Panthers shout out to you, Luke.
• 53:44
  I don't know if you're listening to this. He's a Panthers fan. They
• 53:45
  finally won a game. Get around the applause for him and Bryce Young.
• 53:50
  He actually, Bryce Young, you actually looked pretty good and off a game
• 53:57
  winning field goal. The Panthers won fifteen to thirteen. What were your takeaways
• 54:00
  from this game? Just shout out to Bryce Young getting his first win in
• 54:06
  the NFL. I know that takes a lot of weight off your shoulders as
• 54:07
  a young quarterback to get that first win, and he did it pretty good
• 54:14
  yesterday. He's been playing good all season. I think people have been hating
• 54:15
  on him a little bit too much. Twenty two for thirty one to thirty
• 54:19
  five in a touchdown play, eleven yards on the ground with his legs.
• 54:22
  I think that helps his team out a lot. It really really does to
• 54:28
  get this win. I think these young guys are gonna start playing a little
• 54:30
  bit harder because they got the taste of fresh blood with that fresh win.
• 54:35
  As for c J. Stroud, he looked like a rookie yesterday. He
• 54:37
  just wasn't hitting guys the same way he was. He only averaged five point
• 54:40
  yards five point eight yards per pass. That's just not a good recipe for
• 54:45
  wins, especially in this offense when they were really high powered in top three
• 54:49
  in the league over the first like five weeks of the season. I want
• 54:52
  to see tink Dale get a little bit more involved downfield like he was when
• 54:57
  they when they won a couple of games with him as the number one receiver
• 55:00
  along with Nico Collins. So yeah, that's just my biggest sakeways from this
• 55:05
  game. Yeah, and like, iw, what was it. It's already
• 55:09
  been a couple of weeks. I was kind of kind of worried as far
• 55:13
  as with Bryce Young and you're just saying, just slow it down, and
• 55:16
  he's slowly progressing week by week by week and twenty two for thirty one two
• 55:21
  hundred thirty five yards a touchdown. Offensive line it needs to get better,
• 55:25
  but it's kind of a little bit of Bryce Young's fault, kind of stepping
• 55:29
  into sacks where just trying to do too much, just needs to throw the
• 55:31
  ball away. But he's looking better and better and better, and he's looking
• 55:36
  like that first overall pick for a reason. And it was weird to me,
• 55:39
  Like you're saying, CJ. Stroud, he looked like a rookie quarterback.
• 55:43
  Obviously you're gonna have some some ups and downs, but you're coming off
• 55:46
  of a bie week, so usually you expect your rookies to be playing a
• 55:51
  little bit better, clicking understanding the offense a little bit more. And I
• 55:54
  know the Panthers they kind of have a feisty defense where they could play good
• 55:59
  at times. They have good pieces, but I feel like they he could
• 56:04
  have played better and they were able, not necessarily they were able to run
• 56:08
  the ball, but they were getting some traction. I know it doesn't look
• 56:13
  good as far as the stats three point seven yard to carry, but they
• 56:17
  did enough to as far as let CJ. Stroud possibly win this game right
• 56:22
  here, and he couldn't. I guess Bryce Young He's proven to be that
• 56:28
  number one overall pick, slowly but surely. And any last takeaways from this
• 56:31
  game, no, not entire really. I just think these are two good
• 56:38
  teams that are still in rebuilding mode trying to get things on track. It
• 56:42
  helps the Panthers getting this first win with their new franchise quarterback. The Texans
• 56:45
  need to help their new franchise quarterback as well out a little bit more.
• 56:50
  Especially the running game is pretty inefficient this year. We expected Damian Peers to
• 56:53
  take a big step going into a sophomore year. I don't know this is
• 56:55
  sophomore slump or the line how much, how much, being how banged up
• 57:00
  they are, but I just want to see more efficiency. They take pressure
• 57:02
  off of CJ's drought where he doesn't feel like he has to do too much.
• 57:07
  Well, all right, we're gonna go ahead and get into this next
• 57:09
  game right here, and which it was Atlanta Falcons versus the Tennessee Titans.
• 57:15
  And what's the tight ends. They had two quarterbacks at first, but we
• 57:20
  obviously saw who's going to be starting from this point forward until Ryan Tannehill gets
• 57:24
  back. Will Levis had a great day and they won twenty eight to twenty
• 57:30
  three. What is your biggest takeaway from this game? Right here? Let
• 57:35
  me get started. Before this, I was the biggest Will Levis hater there
• 57:38
  was in this entire world coming out into the draft. I don't. I
• 57:44
  just I'm just not a big believer in quarterbacks who don't produce in college getting
• 57:46
  all this shine going into the draft. It's just hard for me to get
• 57:51
  down with that. We fell in love the same reasons people fell in love
• 57:54
  with Sam Darnold, the same reasons why people fell in love with Zach Wilson's
• 57:58
  because they had all this talent, they were young, they were athletes coming
• 58:00
  out and I just saw the same signs kind of and Will Levis. But
• 58:05
  he kind of proved me wrong yesterday because when I was watching that game,
• 58:08
  he was putting the ball into some places that they needed to be and he
• 58:13
  was throwing them outside of the defender, away from defender. He was taking
• 58:16
  his dunk, his Deacon dunks he hit. He got DeAndre Hopkins moving this
• 58:22
  game. He looked a little bit more excited than he did in these other
• 58:23
  games. Four catches one twenty eight for three touchdowns to your star an all
• 58:29
  time great receiver in DeAndre Hopkins. And then I'm just I just want to
• 58:32
  give my props to Will Levis after that game. He really balled out.
• 58:36
  He really got it a little bit of the haters, especially me. I
• 58:38
  mean, he really silenced a lot of the haters, especially me, at
• 58:42
  least for this week. And I just hope he keeps on track with this
• 58:45
  because you really don't ever want to see a player fail. Yeah, and
• 58:50
  DeAndre Hopkins, he looked like Vincent's DeAndre Hopkins. And they were able to
• 58:54
  run the ball too. As far as with Derrek Henry twenty two carries one
• 58:57
  hundred and nine yards, but you kind of expect that right there. But
• 59:00
  when you're able to get those, when you're able to run the ball with
• 59:02
  Derrick Henry, those deep shots are going to be opening. Will Levis he
• 59:07
  just took advantage of that and he was a strong arm QB coming out from
• 59:10
  the draft, and he proved that once again today. I'm not saying they're
• 59:16
  going to get anywhere, but maybe they could give some spoilers a couple of
• 59:22
  trap games, maybe win. But I think that because how this team,
• 59:27
  they're not really going anywhere. Do you think that they should try to trade
• 59:30
  away Ryan Tannehill and just let Will Levis start the rest of the season so
• 59:35
  he could kind of progress and you kind of turn to a new chapter.
• 59:38
  As far as with this team, I think Ryan tennant Hill will never get
• 59:43
  his job back after this game. I think they've seen those rookie quarterback do
• 59:45
  you thinks Milick Willis couldn't do and things Ryan tennant Hill couldn't do, So
• 59:49
  I think they're really going to ride it out with him, and I think
• 59:51
  this push the Tennessee Titans in a pretty good position if you can keep this
• 59:53
  up. As for draft picks going forward, like if they see Will Levis,
• 59:59
  who they message second round pick into, really balling out, they can
• 1:00:02
  go elsewhere with these picks as far as needs in free agency and may have
• 1:00:07
  them a different outlook. But as far as Ryan Tannehill getting dealt to another
• 1:00:09
  team, he's been on these contenders for how many years already and he hasn't
• 1:00:15
  done anything with it. I don't think a contender that yeah, four or
• 1:00:17
  five years. I don't think there's any contender who looks at him as a
• 1:00:22
  as a needle mover for their team that needs a quarterback or not necessarily continers,
• 1:00:28
  but teams looking to get into the playoffs that need a quarterback. He
• 1:00:30
  doesn't need to move the needle for them. And as for that, and
• 1:00:32
  one of these teams happen to be on the other side of the other side
• 1:00:36
  of the field on this game, and that's the Atlanta Falcons, who who
• 1:00:39
  do struggle with quarterback. But I don't think if you trade for Ryan Tannehill
• 1:00:43
  just moves to Atlanta Falcons from being any better with des Muerto or Taylor Heinicke.
• 1:00:47
  So I just don't see that happening. But as far as the Falcons,
• 1:00:52
  man, someone get Arthur Smith, trap him in a corner and force
• 1:00:57
  him to give the ball to his star players. Man Bjon Robinson had zero
• 1:01:01
  catches on this game. I get he has five targets, but zero.
• 1:01:05
  Manufacture some touches for this man, dude, manufacture him eleven touches to your
• 1:01:09
  eighth overall running back. I get they to want something that happened to him,
• 1:01:15
  that happened to Zeke or happened to Todd Gurley, but he's still then
• 1:01:19
  eighth overall pick in this draft. There's no reason he should have eleven carries.
• 1:01:22
  He got average five point six yards per attempt when touching the football.
• 1:01:27
  Give him the ball and let things happen. You might win this game if
• 1:01:30
  Bjon Robinson gets the ball a couple more times. And that's for Kyle Pitts.
• 1:01:34
  He made two big plays in a row and they're like, oh wait,
• 1:01:37
  nevermind, bro chill out. We'll just get it going to someone else.
• 1:01:42
  And then Drake Lennon came out this game with an injury, so we'll
• 1:01:44
  wait to see how how that plays unto next week for them. But I
• 1:01:47
  need the ball in these guys hands for this Atlanta Falcons team to make strides.
• 1:01:52
  And that's for Desmond Ritter. I don't think this was a bad game
• 1:01:54
  by him, if by any standards, but he did have that fumble and
• 1:01:58
  that was kind of probably maybe the deciding fact, Like let's give him a
• 1:02:00
  break this week because they're saying he left with maybe a concussion. Yeah,
• 1:02:05
  but yeah, but and I don't know, Taylor Heinnicky looked a little look
• 1:02:09
  kind of good in this offense. Yeah, Taylor Heinike. He's he's that
• 1:02:15
  vet right there, and he led the Commanders to the playoffs and even last
• 1:02:19
  year there were a fisty team with him, and I believe on all four
• 1:02:22
  he had four or five drives, and I think out of four of them
• 1:02:25
  they had a touchdown and a couple of field goals, so they were able
• 1:02:29
  to move the ball down the field. But I don't know what it is
• 1:02:30
  with Arthur Smith. He always says, I'm not here to win fantasy football
• 1:02:35
  games. I don't know if he's trying to like reverse psychollege. We are,
• 1:02:38
  Yeah, yeah, we're trying with fantasy football games, but it seems
• 1:02:43
  more and more likely that he probably faces his own players on a week two
• 1:02:47
  week basis because he's like Bijon Robinson, Kyle Pitch, Drake London, all
• 1:02:52
  top ten picks in the draft. Yeah, let's just not use him.
• 1:02:55
  Yeah, let's just not play our strengths right here. Instead, we're gonna
• 1:03:00
  give the ball to Tyler al Gear macdyl Yeah, and then Ben Jefferson and
• 1:03:07
  Scotty Miller. Yeah, you know, just the key playmakers on their team.
• 1:03:09
  But I don't know, maybe if they're if they're trying to lose football
• 1:03:15
  games and they're doing a great job so far, props to them, But
• 1:03:19
  all right, we're gonna move on to this next game right here. It
• 1:03:22
  was the Jacksonville Jaguars at the Pittsburgh Steelers Place where they won twenty to ten.
• 1:03:30
  Are the Jaguars Are they legit now? Because they're six and two and
• 1:03:34
  they're kind of on a win streak. So they beat the Falcons and the
• 1:03:37
  Bills in London, then they beat the Colts, the Saints last week and
• 1:03:42
  Thursday night, and then they beat Pittsburgh this week. So are they a
• 1:03:45
  legit Super Bowl contender? That sounds crazy to say. Honestly, I think
• 1:03:52
  they are a legit contender. I'm not gonna say super Bowl contender because they
• 1:03:55
  still have to go through the gallant of the Chiefs, the Dolphins, the
• 1:03:59
  Ravens, even the Bengals, even the Bills, all these I'm not gonna
• 1:04:02
  say. There's a lot of a lot of these teams have the talent to
• 1:04:05
  win Super Bowl, but it's just a matter of getting through that goallet in
• 1:04:09
  the AFC for all these teams, even the Chiefs. But with them where
• 1:04:14
  the Jacksonville Jaguars are doing really good that they weren't. Travis Etn is balling
• 1:04:18
  this year. He's having a really good year so far into the season.
• 1:04:23
  I hope he doesn't get injured, because he's doing amazing things this year.
• 1:04:27
  Yesterday, twenty four for seventy nine, zero touchdowns on the receiving end,
• 1:04:31
  three for seventy yards and a touchdown. That that's just the recipe for six
• 1:04:38
  death and it helps your quarterback out. Who Trevor Lawrence is still kind of
• 1:04:41
  struggling. He's not making the big plays that he was making last year.
• 1:04:44
  I'm not just he had a bad game, but he didn't have a great
• 1:04:46
  game either. Ninety two one touchdown, win, interception. They got Kawen
• 1:04:51
  reallye the ball this game, six for eighty three. Christian Kirk kind of
• 1:04:55
  came back a little bit down to earth for this one for forty six.
• 1:04:58
  But I expect them to pick it back up, much like the Chiefs,
• 1:05:00
  much like a lot of these teams, don't just figure it out as a
• 1:05:03
  team goes as the year goes on. They're too good, not too yeah,
• 1:05:08
  And it's only gonna become scary when Trevor Lawrence he actually does pick it
• 1:05:12
  up, because you've been one of the first ones on this. As far
• 1:05:15
  as the Jacksonville Jaguars defense, they have improved a lot and they had three
• 1:05:21
  sacks, four tackle for losses, and eight past deflections. So even if
• 1:05:26
  they're not getting home the secondary, they're playing at a high level right now.
• 1:05:30
  So I know Josh Allen's respect. Yeah, I know Josh. I
• 1:05:35
  was thinking of the other Josh Allen, but yeah, I know Josh Allen.
• 1:05:39
  He is on a contract yere right. We talked so much about Defensive
• 1:05:45
  Player of the years so far, I think he is the leader. Really.
• 1:05:50
  I feel like it switches every week, because these past two weeks it
• 1:05:54
  does. But for me, he's always been in the top three consideration and
• 1:05:57
  he just had another big week this week. I don't know, it's just
• 1:06:00
  it's just he's he's really leaving his defense to do great things. Maybe maybe
• 1:06:04
  the Jaguars given and give him that big contract before he demands too much more
• 1:06:09
  and does too much more. Yeah, if he wins Defensive Player of the
• 1:06:12
  Year, then he's I wouldn't be surprised if he Yeah, hell yeah.
• 1:06:17
  But as far as from the Steelers side, do you go to four and
• 1:06:20
  three and which a game? I know that they were underdogs, they still
• 1:06:27
  should have won this game. It was in Pittsburgh. Can you Pikett?
• 1:06:30
  He got hurt early on in the game, or second, second, third
• 1:06:33
  quarter or something like that, but he didn't look that impressive. Where do
• 1:06:38
  you think the Steelers they go from here? Do you think that they're gonna
• 1:06:41
  make a run or especially with this tough division everybody else starting to click on
• 1:06:45
  all cylinders? Do you think that they're gonna finally have a record below five
• 1:06:49
  hundred and the Mike Tomlin era. That's weird because there's still four and three.
• 1:06:58
  But I don't think the issue does fall in quarterback? Can you pick
• 1:07:02
  it? I think it's just a backup quarterback in this league. He's not
• 1:07:08
  gonna win you big games. He's not gonna make these big plays down the
• 1:07:12
  field. I think people got really excited watching these preseason games, playing a
• 1:07:15
  lot of teams number twos. It's just a lot of inconsistencies within this offense,
• 1:07:21
  and especially on the running game. Najee Harris one point nine yards per
• 1:07:26
  carry? How disgusting is that from your former first round running back? Seven
• 1:07:31
  carries thirteen. Jalen Warren only had five for nineteen. Mister Bisky came in
• 1:07:35
  and it was the second leading rusher in this game, three for eighteen.
• 1:07:39
  That's just not a recipe for wins. All in total, based off of
• 1:07:43
  five guys, they all had seventy yards combined. Rushing the football. Deontay
• 1:07:47
  Johnson continues to be mister consistent as he has been throughout his entire career.
• 1:07:51
  He just always struggled with getting touchdowns, but he had eight for eighty five.
• 1:07:57
  But as for George Pickens, if he's not having these big play he's
• 1:08:00
  really not a strong receiver. He doesn't create very good separation. He's not
• 1:08:04
  a very good route runner. He's just kind of like a throw it up
• 1:08:08
  to me and let me make things happen. I'm a big, physical guy.
• 1:08:11
  But outside of that, they really don't have a great route runner that
• 1:08:15
  can create separation outside of Deontay Johnson. So this this offense is really not
• 1:08:20
  helping this defense out. It's much like the Chiefs have been doing some weeks
• 1:08:26
  when they lose this. The Steelers team needs more than just Deonta Johnson.
• 1:08:31
  A lot of people hate on him, but he is mister consistent for this
• 1:08:34
  team. Yeah, but the only thing as for the Chiefs, they have
• 1:08:40
  the best quarterback in the league. Like you're saying, yeah, pick that's
• 1:08:43
  a separation and Travis kelcey, I know, and Travis Kelce yeah no,
• 1:08:47
  but like you were saying, can you pick it, he's supposed to make
• 1:08:50
  this year two jump, especially with quarterbacks, they're supposed to start clicking on
• 1:08:56
  all cylinders. I know you have Matt Canada as you're offensive coordinator. But
• 1:09:00
  even in these previous weeks, so they scored twenty four points against the Rams,
• 1:09:06
  which have a good pass defense, well they did previous weeks. We're
• 1:09:11
  going to talk about that a little bit later, but they've had a good
• 1:09:15
  pass defense, so you could kind of see stuff clicking a little bit.
• 1:09:18
  But it's just you see some moments with Kenny Pickett is like, oh,
• 1:09:21
  okay, he's starting to get it. Then after that these next three four
• 1:09:26
  games, it's like, oh, well, Kenny Pickett, he looks like
• 1:09:29
  what we expected Kenny Pickett to look like. And the Pittsburgh Steelers, since
• 1:09:32
  they have such a great defense, you just need a game manager type quarterback
• 1:09:38
  be able to run the football. But if you're gonna be able if you
• 1:09:41
  want to run the football, Jalen Warren needs to get more to yeah and
• 1:09:45
  warn to take over. Yeah, Najie Harris, he's not the guy I
• 1:09:49
  know they invested the first round picking to him, but he's not the guy
• 1:09:54
  and eventually you're gonna have to just cut bait with him. I believe they
• 1:09:59
  didn't pick up his fifth year option. So just let Jalen Warren get the
• 1:10:03
  ball a little bit more option or more than normal or more than Nazi at
• 1:10:09
  least, and maybe you'll have a better chance of winning. But we're gonna
• 1:10:13
  go ahead and get into this next game. This game, it was ugly
• 1:10:17
  other than if you had some Jets players in fantasy football. It was the
• 1:10:21
  New York Jets versus the New York Giants, in which the Jets they won
• 1:10:27
  thirteen to ten, and they have a record above five hundred and now they're
• 1:10:30
  four and three. Uh. Do you have any takeaways from this game right
• 1:10:34
  here? Yes? I don't think the Jets offense played necessarily bad. They
• 1:10:42
  just like couldn't get the job done when it comes to like finishing in the
• 1:10:45
  red zone, when it comes to actually like scoring touchdowns. It was just
• 1:10:48
  a really good defensive battle all the way around. Breese Hall looks like every
• 1:10:54
  bit of what he was last year. Yeah, it looks every bit of
• 1:10:57
  Breese Hall that we've seen that we've come to expect from since entering the league.
• 1:11:00
  He's a big play waiting to happen. It's scary. I love it.
• 1:11:05
  He's just a speed demon, but a physical demon. At the same
• 1:11:10
  time. He had six vers seventy sticks on the receiving for a touchdown.
• 1:11:13
  That would have been good rushing the ball, but he did it receiving,
• 1:11:15
  but his rushing was okay. Twelve was not okay. Actually it was pretty
• 1:11:19
  bad. Twelve for seventeen, but that was that was That was probably in
• 1:11:24
  total this entire game because if you look on the flip side of this,
• 1:11:26
  the Giants receivers, let's let's get a detective or like a missing persons because
• 1:11:34
  there they just were not found anywhere. You know how much passing the yards
• 1:11:40
  this team happened ridiculous. Yes, dude, Oh my gosh, that is
• 1:11:45
  terrible. I never thought I would see this in an NFL football game that
• 1:11:49
  we were hyping up. Got hurt, so you know it just like left
• 1:11:54
  left with the rib injury to the hospital. In the middle of the game.
• 1:11:57
  We saw the most Italian quarterback come in that we've ever seen in the
• 1:12:00
  NFL come in with Tommy DeVito two for seven negative one yards. So if
• 1:12:09
  you ever think that you can play in the in the NFL as a regular
• 1:12:12
  person, just look at Tommy DeVito's game and say, no, you probably
• 1:12:15
  couldn't. So and then sae Kwon Barkley. I just kind of want to
• 1:12:20
  see Steakon Barkley get out of New York. I really want to see Sekwon
• 1:12:24
  Barkley get out of New York. Thirty six carries for one, twenty eight
• 1:12:28
  and three pot. What did I tell you at the beginning of the season
• 1:12:30
  when people were saying, oh, Daniel Jones, Daniel Jones, Sequon Barkley,
• 1:12:34
  Yeah, is the New York Giants if everything falls on me on?
• 1:12:40
  Saquon Barkley starters. Ever since he has come back from this high ankle spring,
• 1:12:43
  they have just rowed him till probably the wills will fall off eventually with
• 1:12:47
  all this usage he's getting. So I hope he gets out of New York.
• 1:12:50
  If not during before tomorrow's deadline, I hope it's by next season because
• 1:12:56
  he deserves to be on a winning football team. I know, just poor
• 1:13:00
  Sequon Barkley and the Giants defense actually actually played pretty good, but before Tyron
• 1:13:06
  turnor they've been playing good the past couple of games. Yeah, they have
• 1:13:10
  their own version of Micah Michael McFadden and Micah he's actually he looked pretty good.
• 1:13:15
  But yeah, like you're saying, you have a backup quarterback in Tommy
• 1:13:20
  DeVito, Danny DeVito's nephew. I'm just kidding, but not that short.
• 1:13:28
  But yeah, I know the Giants, they still should have won this game.
• 1:13:31
  What happened with as far as Graham Gno, he missed that field goal,
• 1:13:35
  you could say Brian day ball. He should have went for it.
• 1:13:39
  Even if so, you kind of understand it going up thirteen to seven possibly
• 1:13:44
  and driving ben Zach Wilson has to drive the whole field. Well, he
• 1:13:47
  still ended up driving the whole field. And I don't know how they allow
• 1:13:51
  that right there with no timeouts at all. But even when they got into
• 1:13:57
  overtime, they still should have won the game. That that pass interference late,
• 1:14:01
  it just that was just devastating the Giants. They keep finding new ways
• 1:14:06
  to break the New York Giants fans hearts. I don't know they're getting creative
• 1:14:11
  with it. But breaking news right now, James Harden's got trade to the
• 1:14:16
  Clippers. Oh what the hell. Holy crap. Okay, I know this
• 1:14:21
  isn't I know this is a football pod, but holy crap, that's crazy.
• 1:14:27
  This game was ugly. This game was ugly. We get it,
• 1:14:29
  we get it. This game was ugly. But okay, since this is
• 1:14:33
  kind of live right now, we're gonna just do a quick quick reaction to
• 1:14:38
  that. Oh wow, well I didn't expect that. What do you?
• 1:14:42
  What do you think about that? Do the Clippers? Do they become contenders
• 1:14:45
  now with James? Let me see if I can find what this trade package
• 1:14:48
  was real quick? All right, Well, yeah, James Harden to the
• 1:14:53
  Clippers, So I guess they now have Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Kawhi,
• 1:14:58
  Leonard Paul or they should have those four intact right there there. It's
• 1:15:04
  definitely the facilitator that they need. Russell Westbrook. He's not that guy,
• 1:15:10
  specifically, he's not that guy. I'm not gonna lie to you. Yeah.
• 1:15:15
  No, I really don't like the movie either, because it's a ball
• 1:15:19
  dominant. But I don't know. I don't know, okay, I don't.
• 1:15:24
  I don't know what this means with Joel Embiid as far as him possibly
• 1:15:28
  moving, because that doesn't seem like a great package they're gonna get from the
• 1:15:32
  Clippers. So I can't see nothing, none of thing about the package they
• 1:15:38
  will receive. But uh, for this, I don't like it. I
• 1:15:44
  think Russell Westbrook is a good it's a good player for this for this team.
• 1:15:48
  We've I even I watched podcast P whenever he drops a new episode.
• 1:15:53
  And before the season preview, he was talking about Wimby. He was talking
• 1:15:56
  about the Clippers coming into the season and with the Clippers, he said that
• 1:16:00
  Russell Westbrook is looking every bit of old Russell Westbrook, that he's looking like
• 1:16:03
  a facilitator. He's he's doing all this. I don't Is he going to
• 1:16:08
  move to the bench? Is this gonna take away from Tyree Maxy? Oh
• 1:16:12
  no, Terrys Maxey's on the sixers. I'm freaking tripping? Am I tripping
• 1:16:14
  right now? Yeah? Yeah? Yeah yeah yeah. These colors and teams
• 1:16:19
  trading for each other is messing me up? Right now? Does this Does
• 1:16:25
  this move James Harden? James Harden is obviously going to be the starter,
• 1:16:28
  but what does this mean for Russell Westbrook? Does he move to the bench?
• 1:16:30
  Because this is gonna be so many star players on one team, especially
• 1:16:34
  because you have Miles Plumley Ivika Zubas. They already one guy can start for
• 1:16:39
  another team, but he's already coming off the bench, you know, so
• 1:16:42
  it's kind of like his teams full of stars. Does someone else get dealt
• 1:16:45
  from the Clippers? I think it's a good move for them in the long
• 1:16:48
  run to make a run because if one guy goes down, which inevitably and
• 1:16:51
  that it is going to happen, it's inevitable that one of these guys will
• 1:16:56
  get hurt. And James Harder and Paul George, is this this a move
• 1:16:59
  to ensure that they have small star players to make a deep run because this
• 1:17:02
  move means win now for the Clippers. This this may mean if they lose,
• 1:17:08
  they blow it up. Yeah. And Kawhi Leonard and Paul George they're
• 1:17:13
  reaching the end of their end of their contracts. Yeah, and careers too,
• 1:17:17
  so well the way they're getting hurt, but as prime star players,
• 1:17:23
  this is probably the end, so they need to make a move. Yeah.
• 1:17:26
  And like you were saying, but even more now, I know you
• 1:17:30
  have perimeter defenders, but now they're going to really be attacking James Harden and
• 1:17:34
  Russell Westbrook defensively now and again, I don't know how this is gonna work.
• 1:17:41
  We got this live. This is crazy. I'm still trying to look
• 1:17:44
  for stuff as far as what they got back for James Harden, but it
• 1:17:47
  couldn't have been that good because the Sixers they were just asking for Terrence Mann
• 1:17:55
  and a couple first round picks, right. It was something along those lines.
• 1:17:59
  So yeah, how do you feel about that? As far as Joel
• 1:18:02
  Embiid, does that mean he requests out of Philly soon because he wants a
• 1:18:09
  championship viable team around him. That's not a good move for him. I
• 1:18:15
  just don't see the Sixers. We see this every year with Jimmy Butler,
• 1:18:18
  We've seen it with many other stars that have come through there to play with
• 1:18:21
  Joel Embiid. I don't know if he's the problem. I don't know if
• 1:18:24
  the front office is the problem. I don't know if ownership is the problem.
• 1:18:27
  We're not in those doors, we're not in that arena, we're not
• 1:18:30
  in that locker room to really give an answer. But if it is Joel
• 1:18:31
  Embiid, this is probably the time for the seven Sixers to make break and
• 1:18:36
  get like a package like the Nets receive from a team where they traded KD
• 1:18:41
  and Kyrie Irving and really rebuilt that team to be a legit playoff contender in
• 1:18:46
  the in the Eastern Conference. The Seven Seers can do the same thing with
• 1:18:49
  bringing in a package. Maybe we'll see you with the details on the James
• 1:18:51
  Harden trade. But if they can bring in a package for Joel Embiid with
• 1:18:56
  with a group of players and picks, they could really make another team is
• 1:19:00
  really good and it could also make uh, they can make one team's win
• 1:19:03
  now really good, and they can make themselves are really good for the future.
• 1:19:11
  M hmm. So it's just in that sense, But I don't know
• 1:19:14
  if they want if they want to really given Andred and their star franchise players.
• 1:19:16
  So wow, well this is this is still crazy to me because the
• 1:19:23
  Clippers, they just said they were out of the James Harden sweepstakes, and
• 1:19:26
  now all of a sudden, at literally one o'clock in the morning when we're
• 1:19:29
  recording this, this happens. So who knows. I hate that the details
• 1:19:33
  are taking forever to load up, But all right, we're gonna go ahead
• 1:19:40
  and the next game. Yeah, get back to normal, right here.
• 1:19:44
  Because it kind of threw us off right here. So the next game it
• 1:19:49
  was the New England Patriots versus the Miami Dolphins, and the Dolphins they won
• 1:19:55
  thirty one to seventeen and which it looked like a close game out first.
• 1:20:00
  It was seven to seven going into the second quarter, but that's pretty much
• 1:20:04
  it. Did you have any takeaways from this game right here? Not much,
• 1:20:11
  man. I think we kind of saw this happening, especially without Matthew
• 1:20:15
  john On, especially without Christian Gonzales, without the health, without Marcus Jones.
• 1:20:19
  This Patriots team just isn't the same team that started the season where they
• 1:20:23
  were kind of giving the Eagles and the Dolphins some really big fits. But
• 1:20:29
  we expect the Dolphins to take care of business in this game. Jalen Wattle
• 1:20:31
  finally had a really big game. He's been needing one seven for one to
• 1:20:34
  twenty one a touchdown. I think that takes a lot of pressure off Tyreek
• 1:20:39
  Hill. That takes a lot of pressure off to having to look for other
• 1:20:41
  receivers because if your number one and two are going both over one hundred yards
• 1:20:45
  and scoring a touchdown, that that creates a lot of opportunities for other players.
• 1:20:49
  That creates a lot of opportunities for this Miami Dolphins team to get going.
• 1:20:54
  As far as the Patriots, I really feel for Kendrick Bourne. He
• 1:20:57
  was having a really big season. He might have been a trade target for
• 1:20:59
  really big contenders trying to make a move, trying to make a move to
• 1:21:03
  both of their team's chances. I hate that he towards acl Well. I
• 1:21:08
  just hope he gets into good health, comes back strong mixtseason and is for
• 1:21:12
  Mac Jones, he's just been regular old Mac Jones in this game. Yeah,
• 1:21:15
  every time you compliment Mac Jones, I'm telling you he does the opposite.
• 1:21:18
  It's just specifically Mac Jones. Whenever you compliment him, he does bad.
• 1:21:23
  Whenever you talk down on him, he does good. So if you
• 1:21:27
  have Mac Jones in any league, which I'm pretty sure nobody does, make
• 1:21:30
  sure y'all start him no matter what. But I really can't take away much
• 1:21:34
  from this game after especially what you said last week. The Dolphins, they
• 1:21:39
  take care of the bad teams right here, which the New England Patriots are
• 1:21:42
  a bad team, and yes, good teams. Yeah, the good teams
• 1:21:45
  they struggle with and we're gonna see next week. We're not gonna get into
• 1:21:49
  predictions yet, but we're gonna see next week. They took care of business,
• 1:21:54
  so there's not really much I take away from this game. Yeah,
• 1:21:57
  Jayalen Wattle was great, Tyreek Hill was Tyreek Hill potentially MVP candidate, but
• 1:22:03
  yeah, nothing to really take away from this game. Jalen Ramsey, Uh,
• 1:22:08
  he looked like old Jalen Ramsey after his first game back getting a pick,
• 1:22:13
  So hopefully that bolsters the defense right there. I know Xavier and Howard
• 1:22:15
  he should be coming back against Kansas City, so we'll see how that looks
• 1:22:20
  with the tough test coming up with them next week. Any last thoughts on
• 1:22:24
  this game? No, I think, uh, that's pretty much all you
• 1:22:29
  can say on this On that game, it's just not really much to talk
• 1:22:31
  about. It's just what we've seen from the Dolphins and what we've seen from
• 1:22:34
  the Patriots so far this season. Mm hmm, Well, all right,
• 1:22:39
  we're gonna go ahead and talk about what everybody wants to talk about. The
• 1:22:44
  man, the myth, the legend, Dak Prescott. They won. They
• 1:22:48
  won forty three to twenty, in which Dak Prescott he played great, amazing,
• 1:22:54
  outstanding, Any any synonyms for great? Uh, that's exactly how Dak
• 1:23:00
  Prescott was. I'm gonna go ahead and let you start with this because you
• 1:23:04
  know I'm a little bit biased to here, So go ahead. Okay.
• 1:23:11
  I thought the last couple of weeks, CD Lamb has really got involved,
• 1:23:15
  and I think that's a recipe for these wins for the Dallas Cowboys. You
• 1:23:18
  need to get your star player involved, your number one receiver. The reason
• 1:23:20
  why he's wearing number eighty eight is because you have high hopes for this player.
• 1:23:25
  You don't give him number eighty eight for no reason. CD Lamb had
• 1:23:28
  twelve four and two touchdowns. That helps Dak Prescott out treminously. Dak Prescott
• 1:23:32
  only has six interceptions, four touchdowns and that loan of interception, so basically
• 1:23:36
  he really threw one will one real one real complete incompletion if you really sit
• 1:23:42
  back and look at it. As far as the defense, they continue to
• 1:23:47
  do what they need to do their point differential that they're helping this Cowboys establish
• 1:23:55
  in these wins and the wins they have scored one hundred and seventy one points
• 1:24:00
  and only allow forty three points. That is I don't know if that's ever
• 1:24:03
  been seen in the NFL. Besides maybe since the Legion of Boom, but
• 1:24:06
  I don't think the Seahawks offense was scoring that much points along with the defense,
• 1:24:12
  because this defense is also scoring points. Duran Bland is like six six
• 1:24:17
  seven, sixth solo tackles, two pass deflectors, one interceptions in one touchdown,
• 1:24:23
  Michael Parsons two sacks, two solo tackles, one sack, two tackles
• 1:24:27
  for the lost, one pass deflexes, and three quarterback hits. That's just
• 1:24:30
  recipe. When your star players on defense are bawling and your star players on
• 1:24:34
  offense are bawling. I still have a missing person out there for Tony Pollard,
• 1:24:40
  but for everyone else on that offense, they're doing really good. And
• 1:24:43
  everyone on that defense is doing good even without Trevon Diggs. Mm hmm.
• 1:24:46
  And I'm gonna throw a little bit of Drake bars out here, but not
• 1:24:49
  saying that Dak Prescott he's the best at what he does. But I'm just
• 1:24:53
  saying that it's Sam versus who ever want to lose? So all right,
• 1:24:57
  uh so, Dak Prescott these pass two games. What I kind of mentioned
• 1:25:02
  the last time they played so two weeks ago, and Dak Prescott in order
• 1:25:08
  for him to play at a top five level. He's a top ten quarterback
• 1:25:12
  already, but for him to be playing at a top five level, he
• 1:25:15
  has to use his legs and scramble out of the pocket extend plays. And
• 1:25:19
  he's been doing that the past two weeks. And that adds a different element
• 1:25:24
  to this offense right here. And yes, they may not be able to
• 1:25:27
  run the ball, but if Dak Prescott is able to do this on a
• 1:25:30
  consistent basis, which I think he's finally able to trust or finally trust in
• 1:25:34
  his legs, then this could be a recipe for success. Right here.
• 1:25:40
  This is a better This could be a better version of what he was in
• 1:25:45
  in between twenty sixteen twenty nineteen, his first three years. And like you
• 1:25:49
  were saying, ceedee Lamb, Ceede Lamb, he's playing up to that eighty
• 1:25:55
  eight level. And this entire year, when Dak Prescott targets CD Lamb,
• 1:26:00
  he has an eighty percent completion percentage, which is a ridiculous amount. So
• 1:26:05
  just throw the ball to Ceede Lamb and Brandon Cooks. He's finally getting more
• 1:26:09
  and more involved. And another thing that I want to talk about, obviously,
• 1:26:15
  this defense is great. But as far as the Dallas Cowboys are now
• 1:26:18
  starting to have a home field advantage. These past eleven games at home,
• 1:26:24
  they've won eleven in a row, in which every single one of those games
• 1:26:29
  they've won by at least seventeen points or more. So not only are they
• 1:26:34
  winning at home, but they're winning in dominant fashion. And this kind of
• 1:26:39
  a similar story for the Cowboys when they blought a team, everything's clicking.
• 1:26:44
  Offense, defense scores a touchdown, special teams they get involved. So yeah,
• 1:26:48
  but it's a big game coming up next week and we'll see. But
• 1:26:53
  as far as from the Rams side, Matt Stafford he got hurt. It
• 1:26:58
  was late in the second quarter, so right before half when they scored,
• 1:27:02
  and it was a figure on his throwing hand. I believe yeah, they
• 1:27:06
  said UCL if I'm not mistaken, so he may go on ir. So
• 1:27:13
  now the Rams are three and five, is it time to blow it up?
• 1:27:15
  For the Rams? Do you try to trade some of your pieces?
• 1:27:19
  Maybe Aaron Donald this sounds crazy, but maybe Cooper Cup because you have Poku
• 1:27:25
  Nakula there, who's a solid wide receiver. Do you try to get assets
• 1:27:29
  back because you really don't have no draft capital at all. I don't know
• 1:27:33
  since it's so close to the trade deadline, but if it was me,
• 1:27:38
  I would this is an aging team. Matthew Stafford, Cooper Cup, and
• 1:27:43
  Aaron Donald could all be great assets to contenders that need these players. Matthew
• 1:27:47
  Stafford may be out, but if the Vikings can come into play, maybe
• 1:27:51
  they can hold off a team this easy schedule for a couple of weeks.
• 1:27:55
  Let Matthew Stafford come in and take over. As far as Cooper Cup,
• 1:28:00
  I think there was a big notion that at the beginning of the season if
• 1:28:02
  they don't if they don't win, that he may be a good trade target
• 1:28:08
  for some good teams. I don't know necessarily how many teams, what what
• 1:28:11
  what the price would be for Cooper Cup, because I'm guarantee you it would
• 1:28:14
  be a pretty high price for Cooper Cup. You need to you need to
• 1:28:20
  maybe see what's out there for the Rams because they really short on draft picks,
• 1:28:26
  especially after that run they made for the Super Bowl, when they traded
• 1:28:28
  everything away for just that one super Bowl, which is great. You want
• 1:28:32
  a super Bowl. Most teams don't see a Super Bowl in twenty years.
• 1:28:35
  Most super students have never seen a super Bowl, so selling out for a
• 1:28:39
  super Bowl, I'm not mad at them. For the Buccaneers did it.
• 1:28:42
  They've done it. The Rams did it, and they did it successfully.
• 1:28:45
  As far as Aaron Donald, Aaron Donald was really close to retiring these last
• 1:28:48
  two off seasons the dollars, and he returned this season is because they probably
• 1:28:54
  they probably told him we're gonna be pretty good, and we're yeah, and
• 1:28:57
  we're gonna pay us the money. So that's probably how he reached. I'm
• 1:29:00
  pretty sure he doesn't want to spend his end of his careers riding out a
• 1:29:03
  losing team, So that's something to watch for it. But I just think
• 1:29:06
  it's too close to trade deadline to see any roal moves. Yeah, that's
• 1:29:10
  true. But hopefully as far as Matt Stafford, hopefully it's nothing serious and
• 1:29:15
  he could play a little bit more. But we're gonna go ahead and get
• 1:29:18
  into this last NFL game of Week eight, which was the first game that
• 1:29:24
  there isn't that football game. It was the Buffalo Bills versus the Tampa Bay
• 1:29:28
  Buccaneers, in which the Bills they won twenty four to eighteen. It was
• 1:29:32
  kind of a garbage touchdown garbage time touchdown late for the Bucks. So it
• 1:29:36
  looks like it was a closer game than what it actually was. Did you
• 1:29:41
  have any takeaways from this game? Why is Mike Evans running the same damn
• 1:29:47
  corner route every single play? Like? What is this? Dude? Like,
• 1:29:53
  He's one of the best players at any point in any area of the
• 1:29:57
  field. He can run the comeback, he could run across the field,
• 1:29:59
  he run post, he can run vertical, he can do all this.
• 1:30:01
  There's a reason why they call him big play Mike. I get there's big
• 1:30:04
  play Slay, but there's a lot of people that know Mike Evans is a
• 1:30:08
  big play waiting to happen. What's he do? What are the Buccaneers doing
• 1:30:12
  eliminating him to a corner route the entire game? Trust me, I know
• 1:30:15
  he ran a corner out the entire game because I have him in three fantasy
• 1:30:18
  leagues. I was watching Mike Evans closely. He was running the same corner
• 1:30:23
  route every single play. That last touchdown saved me and it was a crazy
• 1:30:27
  catch by him. He only he almost made two crazy catches to score touchdowns.
• 1:30:30
  In this game, especially with Baker Mayfield, you need to establish a
• 1:30:34
  run game. I said this last week, I said it the week before.
• 1:30:36
  If you're not running the football, Baker Mayfield needs help. He needs
• 1:30:42
  help big time. Chris Godwin has come into a little bit of his own
• 1:30:45
  the last couple of games, but fifty four yards and thirty nine yards from
• 1:30:48
  Godwin and Mike Evans, respectfully, isn't going to be enough for them to
• 1:30:53
  win football games. And Baker Mayfield isn't playing bad football. I really don't
• 1:30:56
  think he is. He had two touchdowns in the game, zero picks.
• 1:31:00
  He is playing good football. It's just a matter of if his weapons and
• 1:31:03
  his coaches can help him out. And this offensive line isn't playing like the
• 1:31:06
  offensive line that they had when Tom Brady was there. They're the same group,
• 1:31:11
  the same core, but they're just not playing the same and that's where
• 1:31:14
  the Bills. The Bills won this game. What I've seen from them ever
• 1:31:17
  since Dauston Knocks has gotten hurt is eleven a lot of eleven personnel, which
• 1:31:21
  is three wide receiver sets, and it's helping them out quite a bit because
• 1:31:25
  I think a little bit more speed. It's actually allowing Dulphinkin, kid,
• 1:31:28
  who if you put on tape with all the tight ends coming in to this
• 1:31:31
  year's draft. You look at Kim Kaiden, he pops out on the screen
• 1:31:35
  because he is the athlete of the whole group. Stanle report of Michael Mayer,
• 1:31:40
  Michael Mahyer, not hendershot shoon maker, an any rookie tight end,
• 1:31:45
  you put it the film on. He was the most athletic of them all.
• 1:31:48
  There's a reason why he had the most hype. There's a reason why
• 1:31:50
  he was the first round pick of them all, and that's because he can
• 1:31:55
  do things at the wide receiver position. A lot of things that like Travis
• 1:31:58
  Kelcey can do, he can do he can and Mark Andrews that he can.
• 1:32:02
  He can create his own he can find the zone, he can get
• 1:32:05
  open, he can out run the linebacker. He's a missmatch for dvbs and
• 1:32:09
  cornerbacks, much like you want your star tied end to beat. He showed
• 1:32:12
  it in the last two weeks. This week he had five for sixty five
• 1:32:15
  in a touchdown and they were touchdowns where he just outran the guy. Yeah
• 1:32:17
  where he and so he I think this is a big, a big addition
• 1:32:23
  for the Buffalo Bills and having Dults and k it takes a lot of pressure
• 1:32:26
  off Stefan Diggs, it takes a lot of pressure off Josh Allen, and
• 1:32:28
  we saw Khalil stick here kind of come alive in this one. Six for
• 1:32:30
  ninety two. That's good when you have three receivers and your third receivers having
• 1:32:33
  that much production, especially when Game Davis is so on and off. He
• 1:32:39
  had his one good game this week and it's six for his nine for eighty
• 1:32:42
  seven in the touchdown. We'll see them another four games. So just a
• 1:32:45
  warning for that for all your people that own him in fantasy. But and
• 1:32:48
  also the running game was a little bit better, but they did they did
• 1:32:51
  call playoff Lindy for help. Not only I think that's a big move.
• 1:32:57
  Not only is that a big move, it helps them to tmenously in the
• 1:33:00
  running game because he has been a pretty efficient runner throughout his career. And
• 1:33:03
  not only does he at that, he has been an even more efficient receiver
• 1:33:08
  in his career. A lot of people coming out of college wouldn't have thought
• 1:33:11
  of that. Leonard Fournette because if you watched him in college, he was
• 1:33:13
  a man amongst boys. But when he got into the NFL, he really
• 1:33:15
  evolved into a pass catcher, and that's what I think will separate him from
• 1:33:18
  the rest of the running backs in this group. Yeah. No, like
• 1:33:23
  you were saying, you touched on all points. Really after the Bills they
• 1:33:27
  lost last week against the Patriots, they needed a bounce back. And this
• 1:33:30
  Buccaneers team, this is a very good team right here. So they did
• 1:33:33
  what they had to do. And the reason Josh Allen looked as good as
• 1:33:38
  he did. I know he had the interception, but like you mentioned,
• 1:33:41
  they were able to run the ball. This is the best they've been able
• 1:33:44
  to run the ball in a while. Twenty six carries one hundred and fifteen
• 1:33:46
  yards four point four per carry, which it's good. But that's all you
• 1:33:53
  need from the Buffalo Bills in order to open up this pass game for Josh
• 1:33:58
  Allen, because I don't care that it's a passing league. The run always
• 1:34:01
  opens up the pass. That's how it always is, no matter the trenches.
• 1:34:06
  Yeah, exactly, it's all in the trenches. And now that they
• 1:34:10
  got Leonard Fournette, maybe it could add that power dynamic because I know you
• 1:34:15
  have LaTavia s Murray, but he's not that power running back that you need.
• 1:34:18
  Leonard Fournette that's somebody who's a vet, somebody who's been in the playoffs
• 1:34:23
  and shows up in big time playoff Games's he's going to be able to be
• 1:34:28
  there and perform. And now James Cookie would go back to being that scap
• 1:34:31
  back, the change of paceback, the passing down back, but he could
• 1:34:34
  still threaten you every once in a while on the run game. But yeah,
• 1:34:38
  I know, like you're saying, with the Buccaneers their defense, it's
• 1:34:42
  good holding this Bills Bills offense to twenty four points. I feel like it
• 1:34:46
  was very good considering what the Bills they did last week. Usually the Bills
• 1:34:51
  after losses, they usually explode for like thirty forty points. So it was
• 1:34:57
  a very good job by them. And yeah, but they just need to
• 1:35:00
  be able to run the ball. If they were able to run the ball
• 1:35:02
  and let their defense just relax a little bit, then maybe they'd be winning
• 1:35:08
  more of these closer ball games at their end. But yeah, is there
• 1:35:12
  any last takeaways you take away from Week eight? Yeah, and as far
• 1:35:15
  as the Buccaneers, they weren't ever really able to get anything going offensively because
• 1:35:18
  that Buffalo Bill's punter was just downing them every time. Within the five yard
• 1:35:24
  line. Like if you watch that game, it was like it was like
• 1:35:27
  the most beautiful punning game I've ever seen in my life. He was just
• 1:35:30
  putting them at the one, the two, the three, the four,
• 1:35:31
  of the five. Anything below five he was on. And that's every time
• 1:35:35
  the Buccaneers got the ball. That's where they started. They had to really
• 1:35:39
  get They really had no chances on offense if you really look at this entire
• 1:35:44
  game. Because then the Buccaneers didn't play a bad game, yea, just
• 1:35:48
  like the positions they were put in didn't help them at all. Yeah,
• 1:35:53
  and at the end of the day, special teams, it ended up paying
• 1:35:57
  off for them. It's an element where usually nobody sees. But hey,
• 1:36:00
  that's what could separate you from being a playoff team to contender to potentially Super
• 1:36:05
  Bowl contender. But all right, we're gonna go ahead and get into Week
• 1:36:10
  nine. So Josh, he ended up winning Week nine because so we ended
• 1:36:17
  up tying. But last week we did agree that we'll go into college football
• 1:36:20
  as far as for the tiebreaker, and he picked Oregon over Utah, so
• 1:36:27
  he gets to the facto win. So now that's three and oh for Josh,
• 1:36:33
  I'm just letting him get ahead. We still have plenty of games left,
• 1:36:36
  so don't worry. Trust we'll be good. So all right, we're
• 1:36:41
  gonna start with this Thursday night football game. It's the Tennessee tit Ends,
• 1:36:45
  where will Levis will be making his first official start, because Malik Willis did
• 1:36:49
  start in this game versus the Steelers. Thursday Night Football? Who do you
• 1:36:54
  got the Pittsburghers. I will take them just for a stafer pick, but
• 1:37:03
  I want to kind of want to take will Lewson to see the man ball.
• 1:37:06
  But this is a good defense he's going to be playing. So I'll
• 1:37:09
  take the Pittsburgh Steelers. I'm feeling a little risky here. This this is
• 1:37:14
  where you get your This where you separate me. Yeah, this where you
• 1:37:17
  separate right here. This where you get your big wins, the different difference
• 1:37:21
  makers. So I have the Tennessee Titans upsetting the Pittsburgh Steelers in Pittsburgh.
• 1:37:28
  And all right, now we go to the Sunday games. The first game
• 1:37:32
  we have is the Germany Game. Yeah, Chiefs and Dolphins. Who do
• 1:37:39
  you have in this one? Right here? It's two big offenses, Tyreek
• 1:37:43
  Hill revenge game. Who do you got the Miami Dolphins played bad against good
• 1:37:48
  defenses. You give me the goddamn Chiefs, man, as much as I
• 1:37:55
  want to take the Dolphins. Right here, the Dolphins, they don't win
• 1:37:59
  against good opponents. If if I'm wrong, okay, they're wrong, Tyreek
• 1:38:02
  h I still think that he's gonna have a big game. But no Chiefs
• 1:38:06
  after the loss. No, I'm thinking the Chiefs right here. No,
• 1:38:11
  after a loss, Andy Reid, he's going to be dialing it up,
• 1:38:15
  so he's going to be trying to make a statement here. So yeah,
• 1:38:17
  no, Chiefs, they win this one. But I expect I think also
• 1:38:23
  after that week, after the Germany game, so that that this is going
• 1:38:27
  to be a big make or break to see how their their emotions are going
• 1:38:30
  in the rest of the season. Yeah. No, they are both going
• 1:38:33
  into a buy so you know it's going to be very interesting. But all
• 1:38:36
  right, Then we have a twelve o'clock game, which this is another good
• 1:38:41
  game right here. It's the Seattle Seahawks versus the Baltimore Ravens in Baltimore.
• 1:38:46
  Who do you have in this one? Oh my gosh, this is a
• 1:38:51
  good, really good game. Seattle Seahawks. No, no, you don't
• 1:39:04
  know who you're gonna take. No, Hey, sirih flip a coin,
• 1:39:13
  crab, man, you hear your answer, so man, as much as
• 1:39:17
  because I feel like after the Ravens, because it was a very tough game,
• 1:39:24
  how they beat the Lions, I didn't expect that to happen right there,
• 1:39:27
  that blowout against the Cardinals, they look kind of back to normal.
• 1:39:31
  I just feel I don't know why. I feel like Seattle they could find
• 1:39:34
  a way to win this game. I'm kind of leaning towards Seattle, but
• 1:39:38
  since the Baltimore Ravens they're my team, I've been high on them all year.
• 1:39:42
  I'm gonna just stick with the Ravens. Who do you got, all
• 1:39:45
  right, gonna be a hater, I'll take the Baltimore Ravens. I'll do
• 1:39:50
  the Baltimore Ravens. Yeah no, it's tough, man, that's a tough
• 1:39:55
  one. Yeah no, that could go either way. But this next game
• 1:39:59
  right here, we have the Arizona Cardinals versus the Cleveland Browns, in which
• 1:40:03
  we have no clue who the Cardinals are going to be starting. They said
• 1:40:05
  Joshua Dobbs doesn't starting, Kyler Murray he's not starting this week. So,
• 1:40:10
  Uncle Rico, Oh, Uncle Rico, I'm just kidding, but who do
• 1:40:15
  you have in this one? I know we shouldn't be asking this, but
• 1:40:17
  who do you having this one? Cleveland Browns? Yeah, give me Cleveland.
• 1:40:26
  But all right, this next game right here, it's the Tampa Bay
• 1:40:30
  Buccaneers, who are three and four versus the three and four Houston Texas Texans
• 1:40:34
  in Houston, both coming off with losses. Who do you have in this
• 1:40:39
  one? Tampa Bay Buccaneers? You just like picking Baker. Huh, You're
• 1:40:44
  just You're just a big Baker fan. I don't know. I just feel
• 1:40:46
  like the matchup to work out for them. I don't think they've had bad
• 1:40:50
  matchups. They just like something goes wrong for them every single time. But
• 1:40:54
  I think they get it right this time. I think that I think that
• 1:40:58
  Houston they win. I CJ. Stroud, he will bounce back in this
• 1:41:00
  game right here, and all right, this next game right here, it
• 1:41:05
  is Tyler Baggett and the Bears versus the Saints in New Orleans. Who do
• 1:41:11
  you have in this one? The New Orleans Saints pretty easily. Yeah,
• 1:41:16
  give me the Saints in this one. I feel like there's one good game
• 1:41:20
  in each level and after that they're kind of like and the games that,
• 1:41:25
  man, you should Yeah, next game we have is a Minnesota Vikings without
• 1:41:30
  Kirk Cousins. We don't know who they're gonna start versus the Atlanta Falcons in
• 1:41:35
  Atlanta? Who do you have without knowing? Man? I feel like if
• 1:41:41
  this change, if we see who the quarterback is, I'll text you to
• 1:41:44
  change my answer. If we see who the quarterback is. Yeah, I
• 1:41:47
  just think this is going to be a distraught Minnesota Vikings team if they don't
• 1:41:49
  really have a good answer going into the week. So I'm gonna take that
• 1:41:53
  Atlanta Falcons. Yeah, no, give me, give me the safe pick
• 1:41:57
  too, Give me that Atlanta Falcons right here, because who knows Nick Mullins,
• 1:42:00
  he's not gonna be able to come back. Maybe they signed Colt McCoy,
• 1:42:04
  I'm not sure. But who's who says he even starts on what?
• 1:42:09
  Five? Five? Six games? Him? Where Jaron Hall? I don't
• 1:42:13
  know? Yeah no, yeah, give me the safe pick too. But
• 1:42:16
  this next game, hey, twelve o'clock game, huh. Kevin Cobbs always
• 1:42:21
  ready for a phone called Kevin co Holy crap, I haven't heard that name
• 1:42:27
  in a while, But all right, twelve o'clock game, it's the Los
• 1:42:31
  Angeles Rams, maybe without Matt Stafford versus Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers
• 1:42:38
  and Green Bay nasty game. It's these games are tough to pick, not
• 1:42:45
  because they're good games, because you don't know what the hell you're gonna expect
• 1:42:47
  from each team. I wonder who who's the Rams backup quarterback? My bad?
• 1:42:54
  You make your pick and I'm gonna searches up or do you want to
• 1:42:57
  hear it too? Uh? Yeah, no, I kind of want to
• 1:43:01
  hear as far as who the well the Rams backup quarterback last week was better
• 1:43:06
  than Oh, they do have Stetson, But do you think Stetson Bennett he's
• 1:43:12
  gonna play for them? I don't think so. On the reserve of ball
• 1:43:18
  list boy, last thing they have updated on was in September thirteenth. Well,
• 1:43:29
  you know what, just give me John Wolford, John Wolford, No,
• 1:43:33
  no, it won't, won't accept invite to go back west. Just
• 1:43:38
  give me the Packers man, Just give me the Pas too. I think
• 1:43:43
  that I think that Jordan they should win this game right here, they should,
• 1:43:46
  but who knows? All right, then we have the last twelve o'clock
• 1:43:49
  game. This game is disgusting too. You have the Washington Commanders versus the
• 1:43:56
  New England Patriots in Foxborough. I feel like this is a big Belichick game
• 1:44:02
  for some reason. That's what I was thinking too. I feel like Andre
• 1:44:05
  he just goes off in this game, has like two three touchdowns. I'm
• 1:44:11
  making my pick. Give me the Patriots. I'll I'll do the Commanders.
• 1:44:15
  Commanders, just just to have that difference right there. Yeah, I'll do
• 1:44:21
  the Commanders. But all right, then we have the start of the three
• 1:44:26
  clock games. We only have one three h five game. I guess we're
• 1:44:30
  just it's a nasty game too. You have the Indianapolis Colts versus the Carolina
• 1:44:34
  Panthers in Carolina. Indianapolis coach their offense has been really good. Yeah,
• 1:44:42
  the Colts, they should win and they should dominate the time of possession in
• 1:44:45
  this one. And alright, the other three twenty five or the three twenty
• 1:44:50
  five games, there's only two of them. So the first one we're going
• 1:44:54
  to talk about is the Giants at the Las Vegas Raiders and Daniel Jones he
• 1:45:00
  should be coming back in this game. F yi. Oh man, the
• 1:45:04
  needle mover the Raiders. They're playing the Raiders, correct, Yeah, they
• 1:45:13
  played the Raiders. Yeah. Oh man, I don't think I'm gonna be
• 1:45:18
  watching very much football this week. And I'm just kidding. I guess we'll
• 1:45:23
  do the Give me the New York Giants, such, No, give me
• 1:45:30
  the Raiders, Give me the Raiders. Give me the Raiders. Man,
• 1:45:34
  I'm just taking the Raiders. They still have the weapons. Yeah. No,
• 1:45:39
  I'm just going with the safe pick here because they have more talent.
• 1:45:44
  I know the Giants have the better coach, but yeah, I will give
• 1:45:45
  me the Raiders too. And all right, the matchup that everybody wants to
• 1:45:49
  see. Everybody's gonna be watching the best team in the NFL versus the Philadelphia
• 1:45:57
  Eagles in Philly. Cowboys. Cowboys versus Eagles. Who do you got in
• 1:46:02
  this one? I think you already know who I got in this one?
• 1:46:08
  Man. I know it's it's tough. It's tough, Like is that gonna
• 1:46:15
  have like four or five hundred yards or three or four touchdowns passing touchdowns?
• 1:46:21
  Or is it gonna be like a Tony Pollard game where he has like two
• 1:46:25
  hundred yards to having a big game at this point, I'm benching as White
• 1:46:29
  next week. That's crazy. No, that's crazy. I'm going to do.
• 1:46:33
  Look at the stats, Look at the stats, look at the fantasy
• 1:46:36
  numbers. Yeah, ppr rashad White but not normal. But go ahead your
• 1:46:45
  predictions. Due who's at home? It's Philadelphia in Philadelphia, give me the
• 1:46:54
  Eagles. Oh wee. Well, all right, I guess, I guess
• 1:46:58
  I'm gonna go right on all of our type breakers right here. Give me
• 1:47:02
  the Dallas Cowboys right here. I don't care, I'm picking the Cowboys.
• 1:47:08
  I know, I don't I don't hate. I just feel like, I
• 1:47:11
  just like the home advantage is going to be the difference. I don't know.
• 1:47:14
  It's just to me. Yeah, I know. It's a tough game.
• 1:47:15
  And even the spread it's minus three, so it basically means it's a
• 1:47:18
  pick them right there, because usually the home team they get minus three and
• 1:47:23
  it should be a good game. And two of the best wide receivers in
• 1:47:27
  the league, the best quarterback right now, and Jalen Hurts they're playing.
• 1:47:30
  So all right, I'm done Trump, all right, I'm done trolling.
• 1:47:34
  We're gonna go in and get into the Sunday night football game. Another good
• 1:47:38
  game right here. It's the Buffalo Bills at Cincinnati Sunday Night Football. Who
• 1:47:44
  do you have in this one? It's like there's three or four great games
• 1:47:51
  and then every other games the two teams I hate the most. The two
• 1:47:56
  teams I hate the most, you know, I hate more. I hate
• 1:48:00
  the probably the Bengals, Huh, I hate. Yeah, they'll give me
• 1:48:04
  the give me the Bills, give me the Bills. Well, all right,
• 1:48:11
  I've been on this for a while. As far as the Bengals,
• 1:48:14
  they're about to go on a run, so give me the Bengals. It's
• 1:48:17
  again week after week it's looking scarier for Chiefs fans because I know, Ohburrow,
• 1:48:24
  he's he's coming back and coming back for blood this time. So yeah,
• 1:48:28
  I'll give me the Bengals in a close game right here. I think
• 1:48:30
  this game it's not going to be as high scoring as people think. I
• 1:48:34
  think this game is gonna be like a twenty three to twenty game because like
• 1:48:39
  when you expect all offense, it's going to be just pure defense. But
• 1:48:44
  all right, then, the last game of the week, Monday Night Football.
• 1:48:47
  It's the Los Angeles Chargers versus the New York Jets. In New York.
• 1:48:55
  Give me the New York Jets. Yeah, I'll take the Jets.
• 1:49:00
  Yeah, give me the Jets. And this one right here, I think
• 1:49:02
  Brisaw he's about limiting game. Yeah, they're they're terrible against the Ruin.
• 1:49:08
  Yeah. No, give me Bresaw on this one. But all right,
• 1:49:11
  now that we got done with the NFL and a little bit of NBA,
• 1:49:15
  I guess you could say, uh, we're still waiting on details. Oh
• 1:49:19
  wait, it just came out right now. So the Sixers they're acquiring Marcus
• 1:49:25
  Morris, Nick BATOUM, Robert Covington, kJ Martin, multiple draft picks,
• 1:49:30
  and the oh this is a big piece right here. The Clippers they get
• 1:49:34
  James Harden and PJ. Tucker, So they get another good piece right there.
• 1:49:42
  So they keep Russell Westbrook, keep Zubac, so they have six good
• 1:49:46
  pieces right there. Now that you know the trade details, does this move
• 1:49:49
  the needle a little bit for the Clippers? Do you think? Yes?
• 1:49:56
  I think it does. I think I think Okay, I still had them
• 1:50:00
  in my top five or top four, I believe, but this just us
• 1:50:03
  them just so it defies them into that top into the top two, because
• 1:50:08
  I do think their depth is still better than the Phoenix Suns. And actually
• 1:50:13
  they were able to keep Terrence Man. I didn't even think about that either,
• 1:50:15
  So so yeah, no, Joel Embiid is really getting nothing back in
• 1:50:20
  return. I guess tyree Smacksy he's gonna get the full keys to the offense
• 1:50:25
  along with Joel Embiid. So oh yeah, the dog Pap Beverly. Oh,
• 1:50:30
  I forgot, never mind the Sixers there they're winning the NBA Finals.
• 1:50:33
  My bad. I don't even know why we're talking about the Clippers. Hey,
• 1:50:36
  he can unlock anybody, he says so himself. Yeah, yeah,
• 1:50:42
  no he did. But all right, Uh, we're gonna go ahead and
• 1:50:45
  get into the college football game that we wanted to discuss. It was Utah
• 1:50:48
  versus Oregon, in which Utah they got their teeth kicked in by Oregon thirty
• 1:50:56
  five to six. What did you take away from this game? Right here?
• 1:51:00
  Last week we talked about how Utah's offense wasn't very high powered and that
• 1:51:04
  may be the reason they lose this game because their defense is good, but
• 1:51:08
  their offense just kate match with the best teams in the in the in college
• 1:51:14
  football, they especially the top teams, I mean they can probably beat up
• 1:51:16
  on some lower level teams, but the good teams are not going to be
• 1:51:19
  able to compete with and we saw that with the Oregon Ducks. And Oregon
• 1:51:23
  Ducks aren't necessarily like one of the best team. They are one of the
• 1:51:26
  best teams. They're obviously ranked number eighth in the country, but they're not
• 1:51:30
  like the Ohio States. Georgia's I don't mean think they're better than Penn State,
• 1:51:33
  but their offense is really high power. They have the forty year old
• 1:51:39
  Bo Nicks twenty four for thirty one to forty eight, two touchdowns. That's
• 1:51:43
  pretty good. He's been mister consistent this year. But what I really like
• 1:51:45
  is that Troy Franklin continues to work his way up into the draft, will
• 1:51:50
  work his way up the draft boards, work his way up into top receiver
• 1:51:55
  status in college football. But Bucky Irving, for me, has been super
• 1:52:00
  uber consistent this year. He finished with fourteen eighty three in a touchdown and
• 1:52:04
  on the ground, and I'm receiving four for thirty six. I think he's
• 1:52:08
  gonna work his way up into really high consideration for maybe a second round pick
• 1:52:12
  maybe as of right now. Where as right project him in the second round
• 1:52:16
  for this year's NFL Draft if he does decide to leave because he is a
• 1:52:19
  junior. Yeah, but we'll just wait and see where this Oregon Ducks team
• 1:52:25
  can go, because maybe they can sneak into a college football playoff of some
• 1:52:28
  these top schools when they start playing these good teams also, or maybe get
• 1:52:31
  upset a stee they can probably sneak into that into that top four. Yeah.
• 1:52:36
  No, it just sucks for Oregon because that Washington game, it was
• 1:52:41
  such a close game right there, and it just Michael Pinnicks being Michael Pinnix.
• 1:52:45
  But what I really took away from this game is that, so the
• 1:52:50
  Oregon rushing offense twenty seven total carries one hundred and forty two yards five point
• 1:52:56
  three yards per carrie. So you're thinking, oh, okay, if you're
• 1:53:00
  looking at box score, maybe this is just a big play that they got.
• 1:53:03
  No, their longest run was sixteen yards, so that means, excuse
• 1:53:08
  my language, they're kicking their ass in the trenches the entire game. And
• 1:53:14
  they just brought that physicality right there and just they showed that Utah, they're
• 1:53:18
  not even in the same stratosphere as Oregon and like you said, bon Nicks
• 1:53:25
  the fifty year old quarterback. He actually just turned fifty as soon as I
• 1:53:28
  just said that, So yeah, but he kind of reminds me because he's
• 1:53:32
  gonna be going into the draft this year. Finally, he kind of reminds
• 1:53:35
  me of like a Derek Carr type of mold as far as somebody who is
• 1:53:42
  good but not something of that top tier talent, or he has moments where
• 1:53:48
  he can look great, but you can see moments against other quarterbacks aka Michael
• 1:53:53
  Pennix where you could just tell the big difference, like, Okay, bo
• 1:53:59
  Nix is right here, but he's up here. But all right, as
• 1:54:03
  far as since we talked about that game, we're going to talk about the
• 1:54:06
  games that we wanted to talk about that's coming up this week. And I
• 1:54:12
  believe it is week ten for college football. So did you want to start
• 1:54:17
  off or did you want me to start it off? You can start off
• 1:54:20
  with you, all right. So the game that I wanted to talk about,
• 1:54:24
  it's Washington versus USC. It's the reason why I highlighted this game right
• 1:54:30
  here is because in my opinion, it's the two best quarterbacks quarterbacks going into
• 1:54:34
  the draft this year. It's Caleb Williams Michael Pennis. They both look good
• 1:54:41
  and I believe they're both going to showcase why they're both dominant in college football
• 1:54:47
  and potentially in the pros. What do you have to say about this game?
• 1:54:53
  I just think this is going to be a battle. I really don't
• 1:54:56
  think the Trojans will win this game. Their defenses isn't good enough to stop
• 1:54:59
  this powered Washington offense. But especially behind the way that Michael Pennix has been
• 1:55:03
  playing this year. He's alreadyy five twenty four touchdowns and six interceptions. He's
• 1:55:10
  kind of my leader and for the Heisman right now because he is leading this
• 1:55:15
  team. He throws the best back shoulder football in the in the whole nation.
• 1:55:20
  Romo Dunze is making his way but right Nick, Nick, I think
• 1:55:26
  with keyon Coleman so far this year and no one's on Marvin Harrison Junior's level.
• 1:55:30
  But he's making his way up to being into that first round. I
• 1:55:34
  hope he falls to the Chiefs, but but that won't happen. But he's
• 1:55:41
  making his way up into his making his draft stock rise, and he's he's
• 1:55:45
  working his way into maybe winning a couple of Awards at the end of the
• 1:55:49
  season. But it's gonna be a pretty good game. I can't believe that
• 1:55:54
  on ESPN they have the USC a fifty four percent chance of winning this football
• 1:55:59
  game. I'm looking at y'all, that's crazy. If you're taking any beds,
• 1:56:01
  I want people to handle the Washington Huskies. So you're taking Washington?
• 1:56:08
  Yes, all right, Well, since we're using these as tiebreakers, you
• 1:56:12
  know what, Mike Caleb Mike Caleb Williams bias is gonna come out right here.
• 1:56:16
  I think Caleb Williams he makes a statement game right here, saying I
• 1:56:20
  am the number one quarterback. So it's gonna be upset and s no.
• 1:56:30
  But I think that USC they're gonna win, and they're gonna spoil Washington's perfect
• 1:56:34
  season and knock them out of playoff contention. But all right, yeah,
• 1:56:40
  I hope not. I know it's I want to see Michael Pennicks in the
• 1:56:45
  playoffs. But I just think that Caleb Williams, he's just gonna get it
• 1:56:47
  done. He's just that guy defense or not, he gets it done time
• 1:56:54
  in and time again. But all right, you go ahead and talk about
• 1:56:56
  your game. All right. I picked that LS Tiger. The number thirteen
• 1:57:00
  LSU Tigers versus the number eight Alabama Crimson tied, it's a It still has
• 1:57:05
  a lot of stake for the Alabama Crimson Tide. I don't think the lsc
• 1:57:08
  Tigers are in the mix to maybe get into a playoffs, but they are.
• 1:57:12
  They are going to be in a bowl game. But as for the
• 1:57:15
  Alabama, if they go on a run, win decisively, they could make
• 1:57:18
  their way back into that college football playoff consideration. And if they beat the
• 1:57:23
  number thirteen team and the LSCU Tigers, especially behind Daniels, the quarterback for
• 1:57:29
  LSU, Jaden Daniels, who has been playing really good this year. Twenty
• 1:57:31
  five touchdowns, three interceptions. That's uber efficient. You want to see that
• 1:57:34
  from your quarterback. The touchdown interception ratio is insane. As for Jalen Milroe
• 1:57:41
  on the other side, he hasn't had really the most productive year. We
• 1:57:43
  saw him get benched. He only has thirteen passing touchdown on the season.
• 1:57:46
  And this could be make or break for the Alabama this year. They don't
• 1:57:48
  win this game, and that's something we're not used to seeing with this team.
• 1:57:53
  This is gonna be twoyears in a row. Where they kind of missed
• 1:57:54
  the college football playoff. Yeah, and like you were saying, it's big
• 1:57:59
  stakes, and it's basically because LS year they have two losses, Bama they
• 1:58:01
  have one loss. This is basically going to be who plays Georgia in the
• 1:58:05
  SEC Championship game right here? Yea who whatever gets there? Yeah, who
• 1:58:11
  gets who has the honor of being whooped by Georgia. That's basically what it
• 1:58:15
  is right there. I don't know, they haven't been the same scary team.
• 1:58:17
  Yeah, but I think Georgia they they still should get it done.
• 1:58:21
  I don't think they'll get knocked off till till at least the college football playoffs.
• 1:58:27
  But yeah, Harrison Junior is going to have some words for them,
• 1:58:30
  especially what they did to him last year. Yeah. Man, all right,
• 1:58:35
  well we're not going to talk about that yet, but yeah, but
• 1:58:39
  yeah, no, Bama they're just not the same team. But they've had
• 1:58:43
  Mac Jones as much as they want to discredit him or credit him in however,
• 1:58:48
  Josh FIL's on the week crediting Mac Jones, but Jalen Hurts, Tua,
• 1:58:54
  Bryce Young. So they've had good quarterbacks these past few years, and
• 1:58:58
  now that they have this quarterback. I just forgot his name, Jalen Milroe.
• 1:59:04
  He's not up to He's not up to their tiers. So they have
• 1:59:08
  to run the football and play good. Yeah, yeah, they can't.
• 1:59:13
  They can't air the ball out. And if it wasn't for LSU having a
• 1:59:17
  couple losses, Jayden Daniels, he would be a Heisman favorite right now because
• 1:59:24
  his stats are just ridiculous. I mean, yeah, I'm not saying that
• 1:59:28
  they're gonna win this game. I'm gonna go ahead and say it right here.
• 1:59:30
  I think Bama's gonna win this game, but it's gonna be a very
• 1:59:33
  close game. In my opinion, who do you have in this one?
• 1:59:38
  I also have a little bit man there. I just don't see next.
• 1:59:42
  They've been taking two losses, m h two losses this year, but which
• 1:59:47
  then crazier things happen, especially the Broncos being the chief after a seventeen game
• 1:59:51
  losing streak. But whatever. Just still zelty about that. But it's fine,
• 1:59:58
  man. It hurts any given Sunday, any given Sunday. So now
• 2:00:02
  we could finally forget the Cowboys losing to the Cardinals. But all right,
• 2:00:08
  now that we talked about a little bit of college football. We're gonna kind
• 2:00:12
  of recap you on the MLB World Series. So the last time we talked
• 2:00:17
  it was, I believe after Game six of the Diamondbacks and Phillies, so
• 2:00:23
  they still had to play Game seven in which the Diamondbacks they did win.
• 2:00:27
  So it's the Rangers versus Diamondbacks. So as far as for Game one,
• 2:00:33
  the Rangers they won six to five, Game two the Diamondbacks they won nine
• 2:00:39
  to one, and the game that just happened today the Rangers they won three
• 2:00:43
  to one. Do you have any takeaways on this on this series so far
• 2:00:46
  and how it's playing out. Oh, man, it's gonna be a back
• 2:00:49
  and forth battle. I think it goes to full seven. I really do.
• 2:00:54
  But I really kind of feel like I like what I've seen more from
• 2:00:57
  the Diamondbacks so far, especially in that first game. The first game they
• 2:01:00
  kind of controlled it the whole way. But if it wasn't for Corey Seeger
• 2:01:03
  really setting the setting the bar and then Audolas Garcia coming to finish them off,
• 2:01:11
  we really we really will be looking at a whole different a whole different
• 2:01:15
  series so far up today and as far as the the uh, the nine
• 2:01:21
  to one loss. Jordan Montgomery just didn't look at the same Jordan Montgomery.
• 2:01:25
  We've seen pretty much the whole entire playoffs so far. Yeah, and as
• 2:01:30
  far as what happened today, it's just uh, the Rangers bouncing back and
• 2:01:35
  making in a back and forth series. So we'll just we'll go into this
• 2:01:41
  next one and we'll see what happens. Yeah, I know, we'll see.
• 2:01:45
  And a crazy thing that the crazy thing is that the Rangers they won
• 2:01:49
  nine straight playoff road games. They are road warriors. I guess they just
• 2:01:56
  don't like losing on the road. They just prefer losing at home. So
• 2:02:00
  hopefully they wrap this series up soon because if it goes back to Arlington,
• 2:02:05
  yeah, Arlington, then maybe they'll lose. But yeah, I know both
• 2:02:10
  of these teams, like you said, I feel like this is gonna go
• 2:02:13
  all seven right here, and it may not have the high powered names or
• 2:02:17
  the high brand teams, but it's still good baseball that were witness scene.
• 2:02:24
  So by the time our next podcast is it would be it would be next
• 2:02:30
  Tuesday, obviously, but so there would be four games played by then.
• 2:02:34
  So who do you think if you think this is going all seven? Who
• 2:02:38
  do you think is gonna eventually win this series. I say the Rangers.
• 2:02:45
  The Rangers will win this series. It's just gonna be a hard fought,
• 2:02:47
  bottle, hard fought battle to end it. And I think they just I
• 2:02:54
  think OLiS Garcia is the hardest player in baseball right now, and I think
• 2:02:57
  he's gonna continue his story. Yeah no, but I also do think that
• 2:03:04
  the Rangers are gonna win get their first World Series ever. But now that
• 2:03:11
  we talked baseball, we're adding a new topic at the end of every single
• 2:03:15
  week. So I'll go ahead and let you introduce it. Josh, go
• 2:03:18
  ahead. We are going to introduce the soul called MVP of the Week,
• 2:03:25
  where each of us in any sport that we have seen, we take our
• 2:03:30
  the best performance of any player that we believe it was, and we pick
• 2:03:34
  a pick. We crown him the so called MVP of the he or her,
• 2:03:39
  whoever you want to look at it, the so called MVP of the
• 2:03:42
  week. Alfonso picks one, and I pick one, so we can start
• 2:03:46
  with your first pick, Alfonso, all right, Well mine, mine's biased
• 2:03:53
  here. I was thinking of many different names. I have honorable mentions or
• 2:03:58
  plenty of different ones. I'm gonna just throw out the names. AJ Brown
• 2:04:00
  had a good one, de Hop had a good one. Joe Burrow had
• 2:04:02
  a good game. But like I said, I was biased Dak Prescott.
• 2:04:08
  He is my so called MVP for the first time officially. So yeah,
• 2:04:14
  three hundred and four yards, four touchdowns, one hundred and thirty three point
• 2:04:17
  seven passer rating. I just played off the charts, and if he continues
• 2:04:23
  this, he's easily a top five quarterback, maybe a top three quarterback,
• 2:04:29
  and potentially MVP. Conversation, So, who's your so called MVP of the
• 2:04:33
  week. I was gonna lead. It's between three rookies for me right now
• 2:04:41
  off for three different reasons. I was going to lead for Jamior Gibbs after
• 2:04:45
  his pretty good day to day on Monday night, twenty six carries one fifty
• 2:04:49
  two five for thirty seven. He scored a touchdown along the way. That's
• 2:04:55
  a really good performance two weeks in a row from Jamior Gibbs. But he
• 2:04:57
  was the twelfth overall pick, so we do expect this from him, yeah,
• 2:05:00
  and I believe we will continue seeing it. I was gonna pick Will
• 2:05:03
  Levis because I am a hater. I was a hater of Will Levis I'm
• 2:05:05
  kind of a believer as for right now of what he showed. But my
• 2:05:11
  so called MVP of the week, who just got named by Mike Tomlin,
• 2:05:15
  Joey Porter Junior being named the number one corner officially on the depth chart for
• 2:05:20
  the Pittsburgh Shailers, will be my so called MVP of the week, and
• 2:05:23
  not just because of the performance on the field, because what he showed on
• 2:05:26
  draft day, people forget that he was also another player that waited in that
• 2:05:30
  green room along with Will Levis all the way to the end. But what
• 2:05:33
  he showed me is perseverance and you can't hold me down attitude. When he
• 2:05:39
  showed up the next day, walked, walked and greeted on the stage when
• 2:05:45
  his name got called to the Pittsburgh Sailors with a thirty third pick over or
• 2:05:47
  the thirty second because there wasn't thirty two picks this year in the NFL Draft
• 2:05:50
  because the Dolphins decided the cheat. But you know this is a random shot.
• 2:05:56
  Yeah, he stayed, he walk the stage, wasn't institute anymore.
• 2:06:00
  Came the next day and I really, I really like how he showed his
• 2:06:04
  perseverance and he's the number one corner now on on the Pittsburgh Steelers. O
• 2:06:10
  Him along with Christian Daals and Devon with Usbon have been really good bright spots
• 2:06:14
  for corners this year in this year's draft. And that's that's my still called
• 2:06:17
  MP of the Week for the first time ever. Joey Porter Jr. That
• 2:06:21
  that's a nice pick right there. That was kind of motivational. I'm I'm
• 2:06:25
  ready to like it. It was, it was That's why I picked it.
• 2:06:28
  Yeah, No, that that's a that's a good way to start it
• 2:06:30
  off. But any last words before we end this podcast right here, the
• 2:06:34
  Chiefs will be the number one team continuing in the AFC after next week.
• 2:06:39
  I just want you all to be here next week and here, my,
• 2:06:43
  here, my, hear my boast about the Chiefs when we bounce back next
• 2:06:46
  week. I hope you'll have a good week. You'll be safe out there.
• 2:06:50
  Don't do nothing stupid. Well, all right, Like like Josh was
• 2:06:55
  saying, as far as you're gonna hear his Chiefs rant, you're gonna hear
• 2:06:58
  my Cowboys rant next week, As far as potentially me naming Dak Prescott again
• 2:07:03
  back to back so called MVP of the Week. No, don't get carried
• 2:07:08
  away. Now, hey, hey, let me enjoy. Let me enjoy.
