Transcript
- 0:05Speaker 1: And when I woke up this morning, I was feeling
- 0:06Speaker 1: pretty dangerous for tonight. They are when we thought they
- 0:12Speaker 1: were wet. Hello, you plenty to win the gate. They
- 0:17Speaker 1: want you to cook the dinner. At least they ought
- 0:19Speaker 1: to let your shop for some of the grocers. And
- 0:21Speaker 1: on the way up, we're gonna buy a kneecap off playoffs.
- 0:24Speaker 1: You're kidding me. I'm just here so I won't get Finally,
- 0:26Speaker 1: how could he not be romantic about football? Hello, everybody,
- 0:32Speaker 1: Welcome to the Bench with Vonetta podcast. I know what
- 0:37Speaker 1: you're thinking. Oh, she's at home again, not in studio. Well,
- 0:41Speaker 1: guess what I already worked today. Okay, I already showed
- 0:44Speaker 1: my face. We're on the NFL network campuses. I sold
- 0:48Speaker 1: some Lexus cars for the Saturday pre show. You can
- 0:51Speaker 1: check that out. They didn't, unfortunately, let me have a key. Um.
- 0:55Speaker 1: But I'm at home because there's there's pressing things on
- 0:58Speaker 1: the agenda this eve. Um, boys, I'd like for you
- 1:02Speaker 1: to come in here while I talk about this. I
- 1:04Speaker 1: got an invite your girl, RB got an invite to
- 1:08Speaker 1: a real Hollywood premiere. In fact, no, maybe sent me
- 1:13Speaker 1: there that maybe you've heard about Brad Pitt will be
- 1:17Speaker 1: in attendance. Margot Robbie will be in attendance. I am
- 1:21Speaker 1: going to the Babylon premiere and h Wood two nights,
- 1:24Speaker 1: so I have to you know, the glamor is glaming,
- 1:26Speaker 1: the hair is herring. That sounds weird. Um, but my
- 1:30Speaker 1: good friend mohun here just send the audacity to tell
- 1:33Speaker 1: me to talk to Margot Robbie for him. MO. I
- 1:37Speaker 1: gotta I gotta know if you were in the same
- 1:40Speaker 1: room as Margot Robs, would you actually go and say
- 1:45Speaker 1: hi to her? Because famously I don't like to talk
- 1:47Speaker 1: to the celebrities. I sat in the ted Lasso Little
- 1:51Speaker 1: Sweet during the London football games. I said nothing to
- 1:53Speaker 1: no one. I was stealthy. I was invisible. Okay, that's
- 1:56Speaker 1: how we prefer it. Um, would you say hi to
- 2:00Speaker 1: Margot Robs? I'm with you. I don't like forcing conversations
- 2:05Speaker 1: with celebrities, but she's on. She's on like a list
- 2:08Speaker 1: that I would Oh, I would say, would you say
- 2:12Speaker 1: my entire life? If I didn't say anything, no, I
- 2:15Speaker 1: wouldn't say that. I would. I would introduce myself and
- 2:20Speaker 1: you know, see, pretend ask who she was, who she was, Hi,
- 2:27Speaker 1: who are you like, hey, do you come here often?
- 2:30Speaker 1: Or something? I don't know, a jail. I don't want to.
- 2:35Speaker 1: I don't want a fanboy and be like, oh my god,
- 2:38Speaker 1: you're pretty, You're so great. So you would start your
- 2:41Speaker 1: relationship off with the most dishonest note possible. Let me
- 2:45Speaker 1: get this straight, just so we can clarify for the
- 2:46Speaker 1: people at home. You would go to a premiere of
- 2:50Speaker 1: a movie starring Margot Robbie and say Hi, I'm Mohan.
- 2:54Speaker 1: Who are you? Do you come here often? To what
- 2:58Speaker 1: movie premieres? I would say it like a lot. I
- 3:02Speaker 1: I don't know. I would need to. I'm better when
- 3:05Speaker 1: I just wing it. That's I can't. This can be
- 3:07Speaker 1: pretty Listen. I can confirm Moham's got game. Okay, I've
- 3:10Speaker 1: seen it in real life. I have no doubt that
- 3:13Speaker 1: you would impress Margot Robbie with your ways, Graver, are
- 3:16Speaker 1: you the kind of person if you know a celeb
- 3:18Speaker 1: is about you'll go and strike a conversation with him.
- 3:20Speaker 1: I completely shut down, Like if I see Brad Pitt
- 3:22Speaker 1: on the red carpet tonight, I'm walking in the opposite direction.
- 3:26Speaker 1: So I used to think that I was. I'm fairly
- 3:28Speaker 1: shy in general. I used to think that I would
- 3:31Speaker 1: never approach a celebrity, and then we went to the
- 3:33Speaker 1: Combine in Indie last February, and I mean not that
- 3:37Speaker 1: they're like celebrities celebrities, but seeing all the NFL head
- 3:40Speaker 1: coaches hanging out in the bar, I was like, this
- 3:43Speaker 1: is a once in a lifetime chance to go make
- 3:45Speaker 1: conversation with people that I admire. So yeah, I told
- 3:49Speaker 1: um Kevin Stefanski that he was number one in my
- 3:52Speaker 1: head coach hotness rankings. I told Mike McDaniel that everyone
- 3:56Speaker 1: was rooting for him, and he like screamed like a
- 3:59Speaker 1: crazy person when I told him that, And uh yeah
- 4:02Speaker 1: it was. It was fun. A little liquid courage I'm
- 4:04Speaker 1: sure helped lubercpe Um. Okay, well, anyways, that's why I'm
- 4:11Speaker 1: home because I get to go be a fancy person tonight.
- 4:12Speaker 1: And I'm so frenna. If you don't say, if you
- 4:14Speaker 1: don't say anything to Brad Pitt, we're not friends anymore.
- 4:18Speaker 1: What do I say? What do I work? Okay? Okay,
- 4:20Speaker 1: hold on, let's workshop this. He's a Saints fan, right,
- 4:22Speaker 1: he is a Saint. I'm gonna saying, hey, how about
- 4:27Speaker 1: your team. That's not good at all. I can't do that.
- 4:32Speaker 1: I can't do that. Like Saints fan, I think, tell
- 4:35Speaker 1: him is untied? What? And then what Moha? I don't know?
- 4:40Speaker 1: Then then that's initiating conversations half the battle. Absolutely not.
- 4:46Speaker 1: I'm never putting myself in a social situation with mohaunted.
- 4:48Speaker 1: There is a famous person about I cannot be I
- 4:50Speaker 1: cannot handle the stress situation. What happens when he looks
- 4:56Speaker 1: down and double days it's not untied? Hey, her Drew
- 5:00Speaker 1: use this is gonna He is thinking about coaching coaching
- 5:03Speaker 1: a college team that was announced today. Right, what do
- 5:06Speaker 1: you think about that? Brad? Now that's too dorky, that's
- 5:10Speaker 1: way too dorks. Okay, we're gonna Sean Payton's coming back
- 5:12Speaker 1: to the Saints next year, John Paynton coming back to
- 5:15Speaker 1: the scenes. What you better hope jogs? Your team sucks.
- 5:19Speaker 1: It's not gonna work. It's not gonna work. It all
- 5:21Speaker 1: leads back to the same place. Okay, we're gonna workshop
- 5:24Speaker 1: this a little bit as we get into this show. Oh,
- 5:27Speaker 1: by the way, before we get into the most ridiculous
- 5:29Speaker 1: segment that I have to talk about. Um, we were
- 5:31Speaker 1: talking about with Katie on Tuesday. Candy Kane Lane, which
- 5:36Speaker 1: is the thing that exists in Los Angeles. It's like
- 5:38Speaker 1: this whole row of houses that people just go all
- 5:42Speaker 1: out for. Somebody emailed me today that works at NFL
- 5:46Speaker 1: Network and he lives in Candy Kane Lane. He says, right, Rachel,
- 5:50Speaker 1: loving the podcast. I just finished listening to the Ladies
- 5:52Speaker 1: of Kyle. I'm living in Candy Cane Lane and we
- 5:55Speaker 1: fully knew what we were getting into. This is our
- 5:58Speaker 1: first year and traffic is a bit rough, but overall
- 6:00Speaker 1: it's been fun and the kids love it. He never
- 6:03Speaker 1: told me if it's it's if it's like, you know,
- 6:04Speaker 1: like a real estate situation that somebody has to like
- 6:07Speaker 1: if somebody died in the house, you have to let
- 6:09Speaker 1: them know. UM. I don't know if that was the case,
- 6:11Speaker 1: but Anthony, thank you for reporting back that it's not
- 6:14Speaker 1: that bad. Um. I think you should get money off
- 6:17Speaker 1: your house if you're living in a Candy Cane Lane.
- 6:19Speaker 1: To be honest, I think it's would probably be a nightmare.
- 6:21Speaker 1: But secretly I want to be a part of the community.
- 6:23Speaker 1: I think I'm just feeling left out. I think that
- 6:25Speaker 1: that's what it is. Okay, So that's our candy Cane
- 6:27Speaker 1: Lane report. Uh. Next thing's next. I don't know if
- 6:31Speaker 1: you guys saw this. It went viral this week. I'm
- 6:35Speaker 1: not gonna do any spoilers, but White Lotus is the
- 6:38Speaker 1: greatest television show on TV right now. And just if
- 6:41Speaker 1: you're not watching it, no, don't, don't nod your head
- 6:43Speaker 1: like that. It's maybe I'll maybe I'll like to White Lotus.
- 6:48Speaker 1: I got it, I got it. I got it, guys,
- 6:50Speaker 1: I got it. Brad, if you're not in White Lotus
- 6:54Speaker 1: season three, you may as well go k and coach
- 6:58Speaker 1: the things because they may need all that they There
- 7:00Speaker 1: you go, There you go, White Loadus season three starting
- 7:04Speaker 1: Brad Pitt. That would be saying, Okay, that's my opener.
- 7:06Speaker 1: If I run into Brad, that's my opener. There we go. Um. Okay,
- 7:10Speaker 1: So Mike White is the creator of this show, and
- 7:13Speaker 1: it was revealed this week it kind of like went
- 7:16Speaker 1: viral that he was on Survivor once upon a time,
- 7:20Speaker 1: and we don't often get to see famous people, if ever,
- 7:23Speaker 1: on Survivor. Um. I've already spoken about my Uh, I
- 7:27Speaker 1: want to do this show, and I think that I'd
- 7:29Speaker 1: be very good at it. And somebody, a listener of
- 7:32Speaker 1: the pod, actually reached out to me and said, hey,
- 7:35Speaker 1: I've been on Survivor before and I can contact you.
- 7:38Speaker 1: I can put you in contact with producers if you
- 7:40Speaker 1: really want. I don't know if that's something I'm gonna do,
- 7:43Speaker 1: but it might be on the list. Um. Okay. So
- 7:45Speaker 1: it really got me thinking, like if we were, by
- 7:49Speaker 1: the way when we first started this podcast, or like,
- 7:51Speaker 1: what do you want this podcast to be about? I
- 7:52Speaker 1: was like, I want it to just be like what's
- 7:54Speaker 1: in my brain and we'll spin it to be about football.
- 7:57Speaker 1: That's exactly what this segment is right now. Because all
- 8:00Speaker 1: I'm thinking about his Survivor and who would go on
- 8:03Speaker 1: it and who would I love to see on it?
- 8:05Speaker 1: And so we are doing Survivor NFL version. So I'm
- 8:08Speaker 1: gonna show you guys ten players that I think would
- 8:11Speaker 1: thrive or be terrible on Survivor, and you tell me
- 8:14Speaker 1: if you agree or disagree. Okay, First things first, here's
- 8:18Speaker 1: Team one. Got ten ten players. Here ten players and
- 8:20Speaker 1: coaches Team one Aaron Rodgers. Obviously he's gonna he's gonna
- 8:25Speaker 1: go into this thing thinking that he's gonna be like
- 8:27Speaker 1: one with the Woods. One with the beach, one with
- 8:30Speaker 1: the ocean. He's gonna be vibing out doing yoga. He's gonna,
- 8:34Speaker 1: you know, be out there catching fish with his bare hands.
- 8:37Speaker 1: First one voted off the island. He is out of there.
- 8:40Speaker 1: Nobody wants it, nobody has time for it. You're just
- 8:44Speaker 1: gonna see everybody rolling their eyes in their confessionals, and
- 8:48Speaker 1: you're just gonna see everybody go up with their little scrolls,
- 8:50Speaker 1: and it's just gonna say Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers, Rodgers,
- 8:53Speaker 1: He's first, He's first to go. I'm sorry his first.
- 8:56Speaker 1: As much as I would it's gonna be great content.
- 8:59Speaker 1: As much as I want hear about the conspiracy theories,
- 9:01Speaker 1: he's out done um Mike McDaniel obviously, who knows, who
- 9:07Speaker 1: knows what he is doing. I feel like he's going
- 9:10Speaker 1: to be the kind of guy that's like, you know,
- 9:13Speaker 1: the one person and survivor that UM has like a
- 9:16Speaker 1: truce with everybody, and he's just like, oh yeah, no,
- 9:18Speaker 1: I'm I'm totally on your side. I'm not talking to
- 9:20Speaker 1: those people. I'm talking to you like it's just me
- 9:22Speaker 1: and you, baby, It's just me and you. And then
- 9:24Speaker 1: you see it like literally five minutes later he's doing
- 9:26Speaker 1: that to the other person, like, I'm not talking to
- 9:27Speaker 1: those people. It's just me and you. I feel like
- 9:30Speaker 1: he's got a little um shadiness to him. Uh. He's
- 9:34Speaker 1: a schemer, exactly like McDaniel major Survivor scheme revibes. He's
- 9:39Speaker 1: going far, but his his is gonna be like the
- 9:42Speaker 1: most dramatic standoff because he will have been caught, people
- 9:45Speaker 1: will have started to talk. He cannot be trusted. He's
- 9:48Speaker 1: getting out of there. Kirk Cousins. I feel it could
- 9:51Speaker 1: be a dependable dad. He's going to know how to
- 9:53Speaker 1: do the fires. He's gonna know how to grill some
- 9:55Speaker 1: like weird. I don't know if you guys saw the
- 9:57Speaker 1: viral like stakes that he made a couple of months ago,
- 10:00Speaker 1: or maybe it was last They're disgusting. Just google kirk
- 10:03Speaker 1: cousin steaks. Okay, I'm not even a red red meat eater,
- 10:07Speaker 1: and I this is I would not I would never
- 10:09Speaker 1: go near this. It's disgusting. It looked like stones on
- 10:12Speaker 1: the barbecue. Um. So he's gonna make some mediocre food,
- 10:15Speaker 1: but he's going to make sure that the table is
- 10:17Speaker 1: set at the end of the day. Okay, he's the
- 10:18Speaker 1: dependable dad provider for the camp. The provider. Um, obviously
- 10:24Speaker 1: we need somebody that's gonna bring the drama. That's gonna
- 10:27Speaker 1: be Odell Beckham Jr. He is going to be causing shennanigans. Um.
- 10:32Speaker 1: He's gonna make it somewhat far because he's dedicated and
- 10:35Speaker 1: he's a hard worker and people do like him because
- 10:37Speaker 1: he is entertaining. But he is going to get in
- 10:39Speaker 1: the most fights. He's gonna be you know, he's gonna
- 10:42Speaker 1: be front row center. Um, and I very much would
- 10:45Speaker 1: like to see this. Here's who's going the furthest among
- 10:48Speaker 1: this group. George Kittle. George swimming in the ocean grabbing
- 10:53Speaker 1: a fish with his bare hand and biting its head off.
- 10:56Speaker 1: Far like George Kittle the show Oh We'll end Okay,
- 11:01Speaker 1: the million dollars has been awarded, and George kill is
- 11:03Speaker 1: still on this island because he's just really enjoyed it.
- 11:07Speaker 1: That's the that's the kind of vibe that I get
- 11:09Speaker 1: from George k Okay, So he's winning the mill. Five
- 11:11Speaker 1: more players that I think are going to do well
- 11:13Speaker 1: on the island. Pete Carroll. We always need like an older,
- 11:17Speaker 1: really in shape guy, that's just gonna like be everyone's
- 11:21Speaker 1: kind of caretaker. But really he's a little sneaky. He's
- 11:26Speaker 1: the guy everyone's like, wow, he's like I can't believe
- 11:29Speaker 1: I'm still here. Usually they vote the old person out first,
- 11:32Speaker 1: but like he's just kicking it somehow. He doesn't make
- 11:35Speaker 1: he doesn't win. But there are a bunch of people
- 11:37Speaker 1: that cry when he gets voted off. And I would
- 11:40Speaker 1: be one of those people, Like it would be the
- 11:43Speaker 1: kind of thing like you like to hold up the
- 11:44Speaker 1: scroll and you're like, I'm sorry to do this. Um,
- 11:48Speaker 1: you're a great man, but boom, Pete Carroll, you're out
- 11:51Speaker 1: of here. It's gonna it's gonna be a lot of
- 11:53Speaker 1: that Bill Belichick. Obviously, he's not even gonna get voted out.
- 11:58Speaker 1: He's going to leave. He is going to be the
- 12:00Speaker 1: one that's like, I'm out. I'm not doing this anymore
- 12:03Speaker 1: with a bunch of children. Okay, I'm out. He's going
- 12:06Speaker 1: to just have enough of it and in peace before
- 12:10Speaker 1: I'm thinking week two, he's out, Week two, week three.
- 12:12Speaker 1: I hope we get three weeks of Bill Belichick, but
- 12:15Speaker 1: I'm not pressing it past that. Um, Joe Burrow, I
- 12:19Speaker 1: think It's a really interesting one because I just really
- 12:20Speaker 1: wanted to get to know him. I want the confessionals.
- 12:23Speaker 1: I want to see what kind of guy he is. Um,
- 12:26Speaker 1: I know he's surviving a long time. I feel like
- 12:29Speaker 1: his social game would just be the best on the island.
- 12:33Speaker 1: Wouldn't though, because I don't know, he's so quiet and
- 12:35Speaker 1: he's so like thinking about that might turn people off. Yeah,
- 12:39Speaker 1: but he has so many locker rooms that he's gone
- 12:42Speaker 1: into and immediately won over. Like he transferred from Ohio
- 12:45Speaker 1: State to l s U as a senior and like
- 12:47Speaker 1: immediately won over the l s U locker room. Came
- 12:50Speaker 1: into Cincinnati as a rookie, immediately won over that locker
- 12:53Speaker 1: But I feel like people just gravitate towards him, so
- 12:56Speaker 1: he would do well. Yeah. I think that Joe bur
- 13:00Speaker 1: was the heart throb of the season. I feel like
- 13:02Speaker 1: he he enters the season with like, you know, maybe
- 13:05Speaker 1: like fifty Instagram followers. He leaves the season with over
- 13:08Speaker 1: a million, and he starts his own podcast and maybe
- 13:10Speaker 1: he goes on the Bachelor, Like that's the survivor season
- 13:12Speaker 1: that I think that Joe Burrow is going to have. Um, Okay,
- 13:15Speaker 1: last two Jamal Williams just for the sound bites alone.
- 13:19Speaker 1: He makes it. It's him and George Kittle at the end,
- 13:22Speaker 1: Jamal Williams and George Kittle, the dance moves, the soundbites,
- 13:26Speaker 1: the interviews. He's a superstar. He needs to be on
- 13:30Speaker 1: a reality show. I love watching him play football. He's
- 13:33Speaker 1: having an incredible season, so were the Lions. But I
- 13:35Speaker 1: cannot wait to see what this man does afterwards. And
- 13:38Speaker 1: I hope it is something in entertainment, some kind of
- 13:40Speaker 1: Big Brother survivor. Whatever you want to do, Jamal, We're
- 13:43Speaker 1: going to support you on this podcast. Um. And then
- 13:46Speaker 1: finally the last one, Aaron Donald. He's gonna pull a
- 13:53Speaker 1: tree out of the ground, split it in half and
- 13:57Speaker 1: build build your little house. Okay, you want Aaron Donald
- 14:00Speaker 1: on your team? First Survivor. I can also see him
- 14:03Speaker 1: going far. It's Aaron Donald, George Kittle and Jamal Williams
- 14:06Speaker 1: standing at the end. Pete Carroll's the fourth Pete Carroll's
- 14:08Speaker 1: the runner up. What do you guys think about my
- 14:11Speaker 1: Survivor casting? I love it. Aaron Donald would be such
- 14:14Speaker 1: a challenge beast, but he would be such like a
- 14:16Speaker 1: merge boot because everyone would be like as soon as
- 14:18Speaker 1: he loses an immunity challenge, we have to take the
- 14:21Speaker 1: chance to get rid of him. But he would never
- 14:23Speaker 1: lose an immunity challenge, and that's why he's in your
- 14:25Speaker 1: top three. That's a good point. I didn't even think,
- 14:27Speaker 1: to be honest, I was thinking more of like this, like, um,
- 14:30Speaker 1: kind of the gameplay behind the scenes, not even in
- 14:33Speaker 1: the challenges, because really that is kind of what it's
- 14:35Speaker 1: all about, is like you don't want to get voted out. Um. Also,
- 14:38Speaker 1: they're all NFL athletes, so they would all pretty be
- 14:40Speaker 1: pretty good. They're all going to do really well. I
- 14:43Speaker 1: think I think I think O'Dell will be the first
- 14:46Speaker 1: one voted off. You know, he's just gonna get in
- 14:48Speaker 1: a fight with like a tree. I think he's the
- 14:50Speaker 1: first one gone. Okay, that's a great question, graver. Who
- 14:54Speaker 1: do you think is the first one to get voted off?
- 14:56Speaker 1: And who do you think wins? I think Bill b
- 14:59Speaker 1: would be the first one off, like before he has
- 15:00Speaker 1: a chance to quit, he would get voted off because
- 15:03Speaker 1: he'd be like just trying to do things his own way,
- 15:06Speaker 1: not really like vibing with the group. And I think
- 15:09Speaker 1: Joe Burrows your winner he's just got so much charisma.
- 15:14Speaker 1: People like want to give him the million. At the end,
- 15:17Speaker 1: Bill Belichick lost in like the physical challenge was grumpy,
- 15:21Speaker 1: went back to the camp before everyone got there and
- 15:24Speaker 1: destroyed like ten through like the little rice bags, like
- 15:28Speaker 1: into the tree, like just had full tantrum breakdown. Mo,
- 15:32Speaker 1: who's winning and survivor here? I'm gonna go with Jamal Williams.
- 15:40Speaker 1: That's good. He does. He deserves it. He deserves the
- 15:43Speaker 1: one mill or whatever they're gonna I think Daniels, then
- 15:48Speaker 1: you think rage, I think he really Steamers, stay in, Steamers, Schemers,
- 15:54Speaker 1: stay scheming. I've heard you're not wrong. Okay, guys, that
- 16:01Speaker 1: is our fantasy survivor. Let us know who you think
- 16:03Speaker 1: would win, who you think would live? Who did we miss?
- 16:06Speaker 1: That was very fun to put together. By the way,
- 16:08Speaker 1: we should do more chaotic segments more often. Okay, coming
- 16:11Speaker 1: after the after the break, we're gonna talk actual football.
- 16:13Speaker 1: We are picking the games this weekend, um, and there's
- 16:16Speaker 1: some very good ones. Also. We got two days of football, baby,
- 16:20Speaker 1: we got Saturday and Sunday, so buckle at dun points.
- 16:34Speaker 1: We'll get tonight. All right, let's get to some football. Baby,
- 16:41Speaker 1: here are the standings. Okay, it's getting tight. It's getting close.
- 16:46Speaker 1: Rachel one, thank you, mohun and one I am on
- 16:53Speaker 1: your heels Mo Justin Fort and one kid Jookie. I'm
- 17:01Speaker 1: going um, I'm going pretty underdoggi today. So blackle up, baby,
- 17:09Speaker 1: first game on the list. I am so excited for
- 17:12Speaker 1: this game. This game is gonna be so much fun. Uh,
- 17:15Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins versus Buffalo Bills. We're gonna talk about this
- 17:19Speaker 1: game coming up in the best and the worst thing
- 17:21Speaker 1: that I saw, because there's things that I want to say.
- 17:23Speaker 1: I don't want to give too much away, but I
- 17:26Speaker 1: mean weather is like top of the top headlines for
- 17:29Speaker 1: this game. You've got a team. The last time these
- 17:31Speaker 1: two played very hot game. Now it's all in Buffalo's corner.
- 17:35Speaker 1: Buffalo's favored by seven. I am going Buffalo as a push.
- 17:38Speaker 1: I got twenty I'll go. I'll change it. I'll change it.
- 17:42Speaker 1: I'll go Buffalo minus seven thirty to twenty one for
- 17:46Speaker 1: the Dolphins. Uh. I'm feeling good about this. Miami lost
- 17:51Speaker 1: to the Chargers. This whole, like Herbert to a conversation,
- 17:56Speaker 1: is like very tiring and annoying. I'm over it. Um,
- 18:00Speaker 1: but I think Buffalo is just on such a run
- 18:02Speaker 1: right now. They're just taking to the playoffs. Give him
- 18:05Speaker 1: the week off. Done, Dun, dune, dune, dun. Just see
- 18:08Speaker 1: me in the super Bowl. I'm going Buffalo, What about you? Justin?
- 18:12Speaker 1: What do you like? I'm taking Miami to cover this
- 18:15Speaker 1: spread because they have been so bad two weeks in
- 18:19Speaker 1: a row that like, once that happens, you have to
- 18:22Speaker 1: look at yourself and make some kind of change. And
- 18:24Speaker 1: I feel like they're going to come out with a
- 18:27Speaker 1: just like a new fire to be good. And maybe
- 18:30Speaker 1: they don't win, but I think in the snow Josh
- 18:32Speaker 1: Allen's elbow, we're still not sure how healthy he is.
- 18:35Speaker 1: They're like signing old receivers that they used to have
- 18:37Speaker 1: on the team back on the team because they're desperate
- 18:39Speaker 1: for offensive production or something. Cold Beasley is back with
- 18:42Speaker 1: Buffalo now just weird vibes to me. So I'm gonna
- 18:46Speaker 1: take Miami plus seven, But I do think Buffalo will
- 18:48Speaker 1: will win the game. Didn't Cole Beasley fully retire this season,
- 18:52Speaker 1: Like It's not like he like dropped and like went
- 18:54Speaker 1: to another team. He retired. He come out of retirement
- 18:57Speaker 1: to sign that's wild. What are you like in this game?
- 19:02Speaker 1: I'm going Dolphins to cover, but Buffalo to win. I
- 19:05Speaker 1: think it's gonna be it's gonna be lower scoring, the
- 19:09Speaker 1: snow is gonna be there, But I think McDaniel's gonna
- 19:13Speaker 1: drop a good game plan. He's not gonna have three
- 19:15Speaker 1: bad games in a row. I wouldn't be surprised. I
- 19:18Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if Miami keeps this close. I also
- 19:20Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if it's a really weird game, as
- 19:23Speaker 1: the weather e games tend to be in that Miami
- 19:26Speaker 1: actually wins, which would be insane. But Rachel, you have
- 19:29Speaker 1: a chance to make up serious ground with this game.
- 19:31Speaker 1: Me and Mohan both pick in Miami. Okay, So I'm
- 19:34Speaker 1: going Buffalo minus seven. Okay the next game, also very
- 19:36Speaker 1: excited about. Jets are favored by one and a half
- 19:39Speaker 1: versus the Lions. I am going Lions twenty one. B
- 19:44Speaker 1: I think I've picked the lines every single game this season,
- 19:47Speaker 1: But like the Jets, I don't know what's going on,
- 19:50Speaker 1: and and like maybe Zach Wilson did more than what
- 19:52Speaker 1: we think he did, because it's getting a little bit weird.
- 19:56Speaker 1: Mike White was in, he got injured, he went out,
- 19:59Speaker 1: he came back, and he went out. Joe Flacka went in.
- 20:01Speaker 1: No Zack Wilson. Uh Saul is still saying like he's
- 20:04Speaker 1: not done with this team, but then they're not playing
- 20:07Speaker 1: him when they like kind of desperately need him. I
- 20:11Speaker 1: don't know. Something weird going on with the Jets. I'm
- 20:13Speaker 1: very all in on a Mike White Christmas. I would
- 20:15Speaker 1: love to see him back in there. I know he
- 20:17Speaker 1: got a little bit banged up. He's like ribs where
- 20:19Speaker 1: he looked like he was in rough shape. Um. I
- 20:21Speaker 1: hope he makes a quick recovery and and you know,
- 20:24Speaker 1: the fairy tale is back and alive. But you know
- 20:26Speaker 1: what fairy tale I love even more is the Lions.
- 20:29Speaker 1: Right now, they are having a blast. I I hope
- 20:31Speaker 1: they win the rest of their games. They are so
- 20:33Speaker 1: much fun. I'm cheering for them. I don't know what
- 20:36Speaker 1: the odds are for them to make another playoffs, but
- 20:38Speaker 1: good lord, that would be so fun. I am going
- 20:40Speaker 1: Detroit plus one and a half graver, What do you like?
- 20:43Speaker 1: I'm so confused by all this Mike White talk. We've
- 20:45Speaker 1: got Mike White, the creator of White Lotus and former
- 20:48Speaker 1: Survivor player. We got Mike White, the quarterback of the Jets.
- 20:51Speaker 1: I'm taking the Lions plus one and a half as well.
- 20:55Speaker 1: They're just too fun to root for. The offenses really
- 20:57Speaker 1: come alive, and the defense is getting better. I don't
- 21:00Speaker 1: understand what's happening with the Jets quarterback situation either. Why
- 21:03Speaker 1: Zack Wilson isn't even the backup because Joe Flacco is.
- 21:06Speaker 1: He just doesn't have it anymore. So yeah, give me
- 21:09Speaker 1: the Lions. I love. Last week on game debut, the
- 21:12Speaker 1: Lions were playing the Vikings and they won. Uh. And
- 21:15Speaker 1: one of my reasons for picking the Lions was just like,
- 21:17Speaker 1: they've got a really bad defense. And then I pulled
- 21:19Speaker 1: up the stat that Kirk Cousins is owen owen three
- 21:23Speaker 1: when facing like a bottom ten total defense or something like.
- 21:28Speaker 1: Bad defenses are just his kryptonite, and apparently they continue
- 21:30Speaker 1: to be. Um Mo, what do you like in this one?
- 21:34Speaker 1: That's a sweet for US three. I'm going the Lions
- 21:37Speaker 1: to UH. I think Zach Wilson's the second string now.
- 21:43Speaker 1: But even if Mike White gets hurt, his zero confidence
- 21:46Speaker 1: going in there, and I think the Lions keep rolling.
- 21:50Speaker 1: That is tough even if Zach Wilson does go in,
- 21:52Speaker 1: he's kind of got like a lot of pressure on
- 21:54Speaker 1: his shoulders, like his teammates like seemingly hate him and
- 21:57Speaker 1: are wearing like T shirts with Mike White's picture on them.
- 22:00Speaker 1: Like what was once the Jets were such a fun situation,
- 22:05Speaker 1: just like a mere couple of weeks ago, and now
- 22:07Speaker 1: it's like really weird vibes. Vibe check bad. Okay, also
- 22:12Speaker 1: very excited for this. We got the Bengals, who are
- 22:14Speaker 1: on a role right now, finally beating the Browns. They're
- 22:18Speaker 1: favored by three and a half over Tom Brady and
- 22:20Speaker 1: the Bucks. I am going Cincinnati and kind of like
- 22:24Speaker 1: confidently I'm going thirty one. I loved this this week
- 22:31Speaker 1: that um Joe Burrow was like, uh, I think he
- 22:33Speaker 1: was asked, are you gonna get anything from Tom Brady?
- 22:35Speaker 1: Are you gonna, like, you know, do a jersey swap
- 22:38Speaker 1: or autograph after the game, And he was like, no,
- 22:40Speaker 1: I'm not going to focus on the game. I'm gonna
- 22:43Speaker 1: play football. I kind of loved that. And then Tom
- 22:45Speaker 1: Brady was like great young quarterback, you know, gave him
- 22:49Speaker 1: some gave him some props. So I'm really excited for
- 22:52Speaker 1: this game, but I think that the Bengals win. I
- 22:53Speaker 1: think the Bengals are are doing their thing right now, Jesson,
- 22:57Speaker 1: I fully agree. I'll be surprised at the Bucks get
- 23:00Speaker 1: to twenty four. Their offense looks so hard to just
- 23:03Speaker 1: like even move the ball and get any first downs
- 23:05Speaker 1: at all. Four points seems high against surging Bengals defense.
- 23:10Speaker 1: So give me Cincinnati in like a comfortable win. You
- 23:14Speaker 1: might be right, But then there's always that like garbage
- 23:16Speaker 1: time stuff for Tom Brady, like as we saw on
- 23:18Speaker 1: Monday Night, football just like pulls out of his like
- 23:21Speaker 1: bum so he can never really trust anything when it
- 23:27Speaker 1: comes to the box. Right now, what are you like
- 23:28Speaker 1: in this one? Yeah, I'm going Bengals Big Joe Burrow Um.
- 23:32Speaker 1: He was asked about comparisons with Brady and he's like,
- 23:34Speaker 1: I'm Joe, He's Tom. I think Brady is like over it.
- 23:38Speaker 1: Last week when they lost the Niners, he signed a
- 23:41Speaker 1: ball that the corner gave him after the game. Like
- 23:43Speaker 1: Brady supposed to be this great competitor. Is he calling it? Like?
- 23:47Speaker 1: I'm not sure? I will say the Bengals receiving course
- 23:51Speaker 1: pretty banged up. Tee Higgins dealing with a hamstring. Tyler Boyd,
- 23:54Speaker 1: he's got a finger messed up. Heah, But I will
- 23:58Speaker 1: say they they won the game without Joe Mixon and
- 24:01Speaker 1: Jamaar Chase like a couple of weeks ago, So I'm
- 24:04Speaker 1: not even they find a way. They find a way exactly. Uh.
- 24:10Speaker 1: And finally, I mean, let's get to the game of
- 24:12Speaker 1: the week. Let's get to the game of the week. Boys.
- 24:15Speaker 1: We got the Rams who are a seven point underdog
- 24:18Speaker 1: against the Packers. And and credit where credit is due.
- 24:22Speaker 1: Our guy, the official guy of the podcast, Baker Mayfield
- 24:27Speaker 1: NFC Offensive Player of the Week, NPCY Offensive Player of
- 24:32Speaker 1: the Week. He got there on Tuesday, he showed up
- 24:35Speaker 1: on Thursday. Oh I love that line. I'm gonna write
- 24:38Speaker 1: that down. Uh, going Rams just because it's fun, just
- 24:42Speaker 1: because it's fun. I'm going Rams and twenty four. I
- 24:45Speaker 1: don't care. I don't care. This is for funzies, this
- 24:48Speaker 1: is for RB Okay. I want to see Baker Mayfield
- 24:51Speaker 1: shine Packers. I don't know they've been there coming off
- 24:56Speaker 1: there by right. Um. I think they look a little rusty. Baker.
- 25:00Speaker 1: On the other hand, the opposite, graaper, what do you like?
- 25:04Speaker 1: I am picking Green Bay to cover, not confidently because
- 25:09Speaker 1: Green Bay have they won any games by seven points
- 25:11Speaker 1: this year? I honestly don't know, um, but I just
- 25:15Speaker 1: think coming off to buy the Baker magic will have
- 25:18Speaker 1: like a little like I want a route for Baker.
- 25:22Speaker 1: I just it's fine, it's fine. I want to I
- 25:24Speaker 1: want to separate. I want to I want to get
- 25:26Speaker 1: closer to that. Yeah, there you go. I'm giving you
- 25:28Speaker 1: a chance to get back in it. That's why I'm paying.
- 25:29Speaker 1: What do you what do you like? I'm also going
- 25:31Speaker 1: the Packers. I love Baker, but I think the fairy
- 25:34Speaker 1: tale the Packers are gonna have a whole week to
- 25:36Speaker 1: prepare against him, who we thought no team would have
- 25:40Speaker 1: to ever prepare against. Baker. Rogers said that his offseason
- 25:45Speaker 1: activities has allowed him has cured his his fear of death.
- 25:48Speaker 1: So like, this guy is just Yeah, his offseason activities.
- 25:53Speaker 1: You mean the funny teeth that he drank, that's cured.
- 25:57Speaker 1: What does he have to do with football? I'm just saying.
- 26:00Speaker 1: I'm just saying he's gonna step on that field. He
- 26:01Speaker 1: doesn't fear anything. No, I know what a wild SoundBite
- 26:06Speaker 1: to like, So, how are you feeling with taking on
- 26:07Speaker 1: the Rams? Well and no longer feared death. So I'm
- 26:10Speaker 1: gonna be okay. I don't want to botch us, but
- 26:12Speaker 1: I think he said he's like, once you've seen the
- 26:14Speaker 1: other side or something, you know. I don't know, you
- 26:17Speaker 1: see the other side. Oh my good lord, Baker d Rims. Okay,

- 28:08Speaker 1: worst thing I saw. What rage? Do you think on Saturday?
- 28:13Speaker 1: Do you think McDaniel is gonna bundle up or you

- 28:18Speaker 1: like he's gonna wear like short sleeves, he's gonna wear
- 28:22Speaker 1: tank top that says I'm toasty, toasty as can be,
- 28:27Speaker 1: just ridiculous. But this leaves me to the worst thing
- 28:30Speaker 1: that I saw Graver. The Dolphins had heaters near their
- 28:35Speaker 1: bench at so By Stadium. This is on a whole
- 28:40Speaker 1: other level, okay. So Fi Stadium famously pretty indoors, Okay,
- 28:47Speaker 1: pretty toasty, okay, and they had to have their heaters
- 28:51Speaker 1: were the cold little l a webboo. They're screwed. If
- 28:56Speaker 1: this is what if this is what they're struggling with,
- 28:59Speaker 1: is a couple of gusts out here. Oh well, you
- 29:03Speaker 1: don't want the sand to roll in. It gets a
- 29:07Speaker 1: little chili at night in l A. And I wore
- 29:11Speaker 1: my part of the other day. Yeah, I've been wearing
- 29:13Speaker 1: big jackets and and you know what, They're gonna have
- 29:16Speaker 1: better heaters in Buffalo. I bet their whole benches will
- 29:19Speaker 1: be heated. They'll have those little poles that they stick
- 29:21Speaker 1: their helmets on that are heated. They'll be fine. Soup. Yeah,
- 29:25Speaker 1: but they're not playing football on the bench, are they.
