0:20
already rob can you believe it i can't believe
0:23
it was a crazy week of football six games over
0:26
10 points coming back so A lot of fun stuff to
0:29
talk about. Another Vikings win. Another key.
0:33
So bring it home. Brought it home from London,
0:35
you know, baby. Just a normal week. We're just
0:37
going to ignore last week, even though I'm wearing
0:39
the Dublin hat. But this is actually from Dublin,
0:42
by the way, gifted to me by one of my bosses
0:46
who was at the game, Lucky Ducky. Sick flex.
0:48
Yeah, no doubt. No doubt. He had a good time.
0:50
So let's see. But didn't bring you. Yeah, right.
0:55
I got a hat, though. That's cool. I'm busy. I'm
0:59
coaching. I got a commitment. I'm coaching, too.
1:01
I got a commitment. It's all right. I call that
1:02
competitive W. Yeah, competitive W. Got a hat.
1:07
Jeez. Rob, thanks for being here, man. Thanks
1:10
for inviting me. It was fun. I'm excited to be
1:12
back. Yeah, excited to bring you back. Yes. So
1:15
Vikings coming off of a nice win. So, of course,
1:18
of course, Kev behind the camera, obviously getting
1:21
everything done for us as he does every week
1:24
for us. Without further ado, Kev, though, let's
1:27
head right into our week five game recaps. And
1:34
to start off our games. We got the Chiefs traveling
1:44
to Jacksonville. All you guys taking the Chiefs
1:48
last week. Yes. The score was 31 -28 Jaguars,
1:56
Rob. Yeah, it was interesting. 31 -28 Jaguars.
2:00
Trevor Lawrence kind of doing his best Josh Allen
2:04
impression with all his running and kind of putting
2:07
the team on his back in certain situations. Also
2:11
went on his back in certain situations, I suppose.
2:13
Yeah, I mean, it was a rare win for the Jaguars.
2:16
That sounds like an eight -game losing streak
2:19
against them. So Jaguars defense, a couple turnovers.
2:23
I think now they lead the league in turnovers
2:25
or takeaways anyways. So, yeah, it was an interesting
2:30
game. Interesting finish. I mean, that would
2:33
have been completely different. At that end of
2:38
the game, he gets sacked there. They kick the
2:40
field goal, end up losing that game. We're having
2:42
a whole different conversation. We might be talking
2:44
about Trevor Lawrence is like, oh, he's not the
2:46
dude now. Even though the guard stepped on his
2:48
foot, though. True. You know, he did. And then
2:50
he crappie flopped. I mean. yeah yeah it was
2:54
it was the most it was one of the most unathletic
2:56
falls you could probably have but then he got
2:58
back up and ended up putting it in the end zone
3:00
and won the game i mean yeah now don't get me
3:02
wrong this was probably the first time where
3:05
i saw what was it 23 seconds left in the game
3:07
and i was like you know even patrick mahomes
3:10
i don't know if that's enough time that's true
3:14
and Did you see that little seam route they did
3:17
at the end after they scored? If Hollywood or
3:20
Brown would have got his head around, it was
3:21
one guy to beat. For sure. It was a great little
3:24
call. And I wonder what the, I mean, obvious
3:26
miscommunication, but I mean, next time that's
3:29
an easy one where I'd imagine Mahomes is going
3:32
to be like, hey. Whether you have some sort of
3:34
signal, which is look at me immediately. Give
3:37
him some sort of sign, and maybe he did, and
3:40
they just, I don't know. But no, you're completely
3:42
right. Did it hit him in the head or something?
3:44
Yeah, that's what I thought. I don't think Hollywood
3:46
was locked in at the moment. You got to have
3:48
your head on a swivel real quick for that play
3:50
right there. But, yeah, if he gets – yeah, it
3:54
was good. Mahomes played a pretty solid game,
3:57
had a couple picks again. Just the one. Yeah,
4:00
Xavier – I mean, yeah, one. Sorry, Xavier Worthy
4:02
had a nice little return. I thought he got hurt
4:05
again, but then he popped back up and came back
4:07
in. But Chiefs 2 -3 now. So they're not out of
4:14
it for sure. They're not out of it. Mahomes came
4:15
out and kind of said, was it today or yesterday?
4:18
Whatever. Just like, you know, obviously more
4:20
losses than you would expect at this point in
4:22
the season for them or the Chiefs. Typically.
4:24
But you got to look at the picture as a whole.
4:27
Now, don't get me wrong. AFC West is tough right
4:29
now. Other than the Raiders. R .I .P. We'll talk
4:33
about the Raiders in our new segment. Don't forget
4:35
to check that out. But. Because that's an interesting
4:38
topic. But anyway, sorry. I was trying to get
4:40
a look at the schedule. There are already three
4:41
L's for the Chiefs, though. I mean, obviously,
4:43
like Mahomes said, a little more than they anticipated
4:46
this early on. But I'm not worried if I'm the
4:49
Chiefs. You know, the offense is just starting
4:52
to click now, really. So I'm curious to continue
4:55
to see how they progress. um through these next
4:58
few weeks who do they got next year detroit talking
5:00
about oh we are talking about we're talking about
5:02
that game i mean but then vegas washington buffalo
5:06
so i mean that's that's a gauntlet again vegas
5:09
kind of right now right yeah vegas looks like
5:12
a win for sure but the other three lines are
5:15
tough i'm curious to see where you go But we'll
5:18
have to find out. You're going to have to come
5:20
back for the preview show. Yes, we are. Which
5:22
is also set to come out later. Kev, why don't
5:24
you roll clip number one for us? First and goal
5:27
with 30 seconds left. Now Lawrence goes down,
5:32
has to get up. Breaks the tackle. Touchdown,
5:36
Jackson Bay. First and goal with 30 seconds left.
5:47
Now Lawrence goes down, has to get up. Breaks
5:51
the tackle. Touchdown, Jackson Bay. First and
6:01
goal with 30 seconds left. Now Lawrence goes
6:05
down, has to get up. Breaks the tackle. Touchdown,
6:10
Jackson Bay. Big win for the Jaguars. Big win
6:16
for the Jags. Yes, sir. Let's move on into our
6:20
Bucks versus Seahawks game, which, according
6:24
to Jake, was the hardest game to kind of predict
6:27
this week, and he's not really wrong in that
6:29
aspect. It was a very difficult game. Talk about
6:32
a shootout. Yeah, I picked Seattle going into
6:34
that game. Did you see that video that came out
6:37
with the fan and Baker? pregame while they're
6:40
standing in the tunnel. I didn't watch it. It
6:42
came up, and for whatever reason, I didn't watch
6:44
it. I don't know why. I mean, that's not the
6:46
guy you want to get all hyped up and going for
6:48
the game. He's always going to show up, dude.
6:51
I don't understand right now. Don't get him going.
6:53
You know, like, there's certain people in certain
6:55
sports, you just don't talk smack to them. You
6:58
know, MJ would be one of them, you know, in basketball.
7:01
But you don't want to get him fired up. No, no
7:04
doubt. Four incompletions, man. Yeah. Four incompletions.
7:07
And Becker and Buka, I mean, rookie of the year.
7:10
Do we just give them the title now at this point?
7:13
I mean, it's kind of looking that way. Yeah.
7:19
And Sam Darnold had another monster game, too.
7:21
He had threw the pick at the end. That was costly
7:23
to Davis. Yeah, I got a huge problem with that
7:27
pick. Yeah, I got a huge problem with that pick.
7:29
You're totally right, though. Prior to that pick,
7:31
Sam Darnold was actually playing outstanding.
7:33
I mean, there's a true duel between these two
7:36
quarterbacks. Two Ohio State receivers, too.
7:39
Unless you're a defensive fan, then this game
7:42
wasn't for you. But if you were about offense,
7:44
these two quarterbacks are high flying all game.
7:47
And Sam Darnold. At the end of the game, gets
7:50
the pressure in his face. I wouldn't say he was
7:53
trying to extend the play. I mean, I guess the
7:55
dude was all up on him. I don't know who it was,
7:57
but he was all up on him. Ooh, we should have
7:59
that clip. He was all up on Sam's left shoulder,
8:01
and he still gets rid of it anyway. You know
8:04
what I mean? So I just, it was bad. It was bad
8:08
on Sam. And that's kind of the Sam of. of minnesota
8:12
playoffs so hope if he can play out of that you
8:15
know get that out of his system now the seahawks
8:18
still have a lot of season left there's three
8:20
and two in a very winnable division for them
8:23
they've played pretty good football this year
8:25
already so i'm really curious to see how that
8:28
pans out for him um i don't really trust the
8:32
49ers right now so you're not out on the 49ers
8:34
i'm kind of yeah i kind of am you know you had
8:38
all year you've been that way a little bit towards
8:40
them yeah i don't know i don't know what it is
8:42
um and then part of me what was it last week
8:45
should i have a soft spot for the cardinals yeah
8:47
and they dumpster fire right so they were one
8:51
of the what i mentioned in the opener of the
8:53
six uh the six teams 10 point deficit you know
8:56
unbelievable and their game was a really bad
8:59
that's of all six it was one of the worst that's
9:01
just bad between them and the dolphins destruction
9:04
but we'll we won't get off base here anyway we're
9:07
talking bucks and seahawks but at the end of
9:10
the day really great hard -fought battle i really
9:12
look forward to uh who this just again to see
9:16
how the seahawks pan out here who do they got
9:18
next week They got the Jaguars next week, and
9:21
we're going to be talking about that game as
9:23
well in our preview coming up. Yes, we are. We
9:25
won't spend a lot of time there, and we're talking
9:29
about the Bucs as well. So it is what it is.
9:31
So if you're a Bucs or Seahawks fan, we got more
9:33
coming for you in our next preview episode. They
9:35
just happen to play some good games next week.
9:37
Yeah, and they're playing good football right
9:38
now, so we want to talk about you. You know what
9:40
I mean? Yeah, we'll keep this one short, I guess.
9:43
Yeah, I mean, why not, right? Shoot out, nothing
9:46
crazy to talk about other than the fact that
9:48
both offenses just completely went off. Classic
9:52
game. Kenneth Walker, by the way, good little
9:54
game for him. 10 carries, 86 yards. Didn't get
9:59
the Todd, but that's all right. It's good to
10:00
see him start putting yards back up. Fantasy
10:03
football -wise, this was a good game for everybody.
10:05
Oh, no doubt. Do you have? I have him back way.
10:10
Back way? Mm -hmm. and bouquet and becky oh okay
10:14
okay i'm sorry i'm sorry okay okay i was like
10:18
what are you talking about right now oh my god
10:19
all right all right help me out another another
10:23
big fantasy weekend for sure well anyway let's
10:26
move on let's move on uh what's our third game
10:28
here ah yes low -key this game is short for me
10:32
as well but uh poor jake Poor Jake, our resident
10:37
Ravens fan. Yeah, we've been here the past two
10:40
weeks. Yeah, the other purple. Yeah, we'll call
10:42
him the other. That's his nickname is the other
10:44
purple. Those are the others. They're one in
10:47
four. Surprising one in four, I think. Yes, yes,
10:51
Lamar Jackson -less right now. Cooper Rush looked
10:54
like poop. We know. It's fine. I don't see any
10:58
bounce back right now. until at least after the
11:02
bye. They got to get to their bye week. Who do
11:04
they got? Are you looking at it right now? They
11:06
got the Rams this week. That's probably an L
11:09
for the Ravens. Especially if Lamar doesn't play.
11:11
And then I believe that's their bye week, and
11:14
then they come out against the Bears, who are
11:15
kind of hit or miss right now and kind of electric
11:18
a little bit. So it's tough sledding for the
11:21
Ravens right now. They just got to get healthy,
11:23
man. Yeah, that's for sure. And then you can
11:26
definitely tell the loss of the D -tackle up
11:29
the middle. And, you know, did Smith end up playing
11:32
Rokon? uh in this game let me see i don't i don't
11:38
think so i think he has ended up so yeah they're
11:41
really banged up that's just a scenario of rams
11:43
bears and then dolphins they get a little break
11:45
they got vikings but three road games in a row
11:48
out of five so yeah it's gonna be a tough hill
11:51
you know but i still don't think that you know
11:53
if lamar is back they're winning you know at
11:57
least two of them for sure well and it's just
12:00
obviously with no lamar jackson what do you think
12:02
they're gonna do they're gonna try to run king
12:04
henry and they just absolutely uh manhandled
12:08
yeah derrick henry for the most part which is
12:10
pretty pretty rare then the backside of their
12:13
schedule is all divisional games so then they
12:15
you know it doesn't get any easier no doesn't
12:17
get any easier for the raven so their best hope
12:18
get to buy get healthy and hopefully look forward
12:22
to uh I don't even know if they can win their
12:26
division at this point. That's the thing. So,
12:28
again, another tough division. We'll talk about
12:30
Cleveland here in a second. Cleveland had a good
12:32
game. Yes, they did. Even though it was an L,
12:34
it was a competitive L, as we like to call it
12:36
here on Banter with the Boys. Great iron updates.
12:38
But let's give the Texans their flowers. I mean,
12:41
what a bounce back for them. C .J. Stroud coming
12:44
out with four tuds. That's got to be a relief
12:47
a little bit for the Texans and their fans, I'd
12:50
imagine. Yeah, he was due for a big game. The
12:53
Texans in general were due for a big game, and
12:55
they finally had some rushing going on. I mean,
12:58
they kind of spread the ball around in the rushing
13:00
game. So, again, get that rushing game going,
13:02
167 yards on the ground. It really seemed to
13:06
light up their offense a little bit. Now they
13:08
did just get some news about Joe Mixon, so don't
13:10
forget to miss Tent Talk, our injury segment.
13:12
We'll talk about Joe Mixon there. Man, if they
13:16
could get Joe Mixon back, they're only two and
13:19
three seasons young. you know uh tough division
13:22
right now it's somehow turning into a tough division
13:25
but true but like there's still the cream of
13:27
the crop of that division so a little rough start
13:29
i mean they had some tough games and tough teams
13:32
they played against but they're starting to warm
13:34
up and it's like you know just the minus the
13:36
rushing game but like you said they got a little
13:39
rushing game going against obviously a ravens
13:41
team that hasn't been able to stop the run anyways
13:43
minus all the injuries but it's a great game
13:46
to do that If you can do it there, then you're
13:49
like, okay, things can work if we do it the right
13:52
way. I know, yeah. But that just gets it going.
13:55
You get that good flow. Once you start seeing
13:57
the ball go in the basket and the hoops, you
14:00
start to get that fuego. Now, they got a couple
14:04
of interesting games coming up. They travel to
14:08
Seattle. I think this is their current bye week,
14:12
though. I think they're currently in Texas this
14:15
week. Yes. Yeah, I think so. So they travel to
14:18
Seattle coming out of by and then they play the
14:20
49ers, the Broncos, both of those games at home.
14:25
And actually, they come out with three straight
14:27
home games. 49ers, Broncos, Jaguars. Who made
14:30
that schedule? It's just a parody of the NFL.
14:33
Everyone knows, you know, there's. like three
14:36
teams right now you'd almost consider automatic
14:39
w's almost but not even really it's a little
14:42
st louis i'm not saying that it's new orleans
14:45
cleveland's still a tough out in vegas yeah you
14:49
know maybe the jet cleveland i don't consider
14:52
i mean cardinals maybe dolphins maybe right now
14:55
okay yeah they're on the on the bubble second
14:57
tier still have two yeah you know all right we're
15:00
getting off topic but But, yeah, Seahawks, Niners,
15:03
Broncos, Jaguars, I mean, come on. And then Titans,
15:06
you'd hope they'd beat them, and then Bills.
15:08
And then Colts. And then Colts, you know what
15:11
I mean? So it's just, yeah, Titans for sure right
15:12
now. So tough sledding, tough looking ahead for
15:16
the Texans. But if they can come out and buy
15:18
and get Joe Mixon back at some point this season,
15:23
that's only going to help. Oh, it'd be huge for
15:25
them. He has such a dynamic, you know, both out
15:28
of the backfield running and catching. He really
15:31
fits nicely with C .J. Strauss. I would agree
15:35
100%. I would agree 100%. Let's see. There's
15:38
more to talk about Derrick Henry, but I'll touch
15:40
on him again in our tent talk segment. Let's
15:43
move on, Kev, into our Patriots and Bills game.
15:46
Sunday night football. Wow. Patriots getting
15:51
the win in Buffalo. In Buffalo, Drake May looking
15:55
the part. Unbelievable. It's kind of got Vikings
15:59
fans just kind of feeling awkward right now.
16:02
A lot of them are like, oh, man, see, this is
16:04
why we should have took Drake May. I've been
16:06
saying it for a while. I said it since last year.
16:09
So, yeah, he looked real nice. I mean, it was
16:14
like his little. coming out party almost to the
16:17
world of, of most people, probably if you weren't
16:20
an Abbott fan and have not seen Drake may play,
16:23
you know, unless you watch them, especially if
16:25
our Vikings fans, you know, I guess maybe Vikings
16:28
fans because of the draft to looking for a quarterback.
16:31
Uh, some of the hardcores really dug into all
16:33
the quarterbacks with, they were available that
16:35
year. So, um, yeah, big year, some costly fumbles,
16:39
but, but if you're a casual, you're going to
16:41
be like, Oh no, touchdown passes. He didn't even
16:43
do anything, but no, Oh, man, he made some great
16:46
plays, great decisions with the ball. Real exciting
16:50
time right now for the Patriots. Let's see, who
16:52
do they got coming up? They got the... Okay,
16:57
interesting. So after a game like this, where
16:59
he plays well against what we consider a good
17:01
team, a playoff team, an AFC Championship contending
17:04
team, the Bills, giving them their first loss
17:07
of the season, and then he goes to New Orleans,
17:10
which isn't an easy place to play, but... Team's
17:13
struggling. Then they go to Tennessee. Again,
17:16
struggling team, but those are two great away
17:18
games to have right now. Vrabel's old team. Oh,
17:21
they're going to stomp them, dude. They're going
17:23
to stomp them. And then they come back home and
17:25
play the Browns. So if they can come out of that
17:29
3 -0, they could. I mean, is New England making
17:33
the playoffs this year? Oh, we had that discussion.
17:36
It's interesting. Did we talk about this already?
17:39
Oh, for sure. But in preseason. It's been a minute.
17:42
But now that we see them and we see where they're
17:45
at, I mean, three and two. they win six more
17:50
games that they're probably, it's almost like,
17:52
you know, the bowl eligible in college. He had
17:54
that seven, like a nine is kind of that bowl
17:56
eligible, you know, like playoff eligible is
17:59
seven. We should nine. Yeah. Yeah. We're going
18:01
to come up with that. Yeah. Nine is your bowl.
18:05
Playoff eligible. Yeah. Yeah. Good call. Good
18:08
call. Let's well, let's see here. Falcons box.
18:11
That's going to be tough, but jets down bangles
18:13
team right now. Giants. I mean, the, the freaking
18:16
schedule is favorable. for the Patriots to make
18:19
the playoffs. I mean, I don't see why not. So
18:22
if they can continue to develop that offense
18:24
and continue to get Drake May going, I mean,
18:27
you saw Stephon Diggs have a big day. Against
18:30
his former team. Oh, my gosh. The only downer,
18:32
lost Antonio Gibson for the year, right? You
18:36
know, get Trayvon Henderson some more touches.
18:38
You still got Ramondre Stevenson back to the
18:41
vet. So and he had to tell this. I actually had
18:44
to, I believe. I have a fantasy. I had to start
18:47
him this week because Jacobs was on by. There
18:49
you go. Worked out. It worked out real nice.
18:51
Jacobs is going back in next week. No, for sure.
18:55
For sure. For sure. But they'll keep running
18:57
the ball. Josh Daniels loves running the ball.
18:59
And on the other side of the ball for the pills.
19:01
I mean, just hard fought game, man. competitive
19:04
at some point you're gonna fall right at some
19:07
point you're gonna fall but at home to the patriots
19:12
while you're wearing the fresh the fresh new
19:15
you you liked them uh i thought they were okay
19:17
okay i think when it starts snowing in in december
19:20
that's gonna be tight that's gonna be tough but
19:23
are they gonna wear them again or is that i'd
19:26
assume they'd at least that wasn't their rival
19:28
that wasn't their rival uniform was it is that
19:30
what they're called now the rival uniforms they
19:33
were doing a rival series because remember the
19:35
the cardinals had it the ones that look like
19:38
tortillas you know white with that little black
19:42
spots yeah yeah tortillas jerseys that's what
19:46
they look like but either way so but yeah patriots
19:50
defense is better than you think i think oh for
19:53
sure I think Vrabel really gets – I mean, he's
19:57
a defensive guy, so he's calling it. Another
19:59
quick May thing. I totally forgot about this,
20:02
but it just came across the screen right now.
20:04
Late in the fourth quarter where he's getting
20:06
literally tackled and holding the guy off with
20:09
a stiff arm and literally falling to the ground,
20:11
just bullet straight to Diggs for the first down.
20:14
I mean. It was a dime. Golly. I watched that
20:17
in like 8K slow motion. It was pretty cool. Oh,
20:19
8K. 8K. Can the human eye handle 8K? Can it distinguish
20:23
the difference between 8K and 4K? I don't know.
20:26
I have no idea. The ball did not hit the cable.
20:29
All right. Sorry. A little bit of my nerd just
20:32
came out right there. Anyway. All right. With
20:35
that, let's go to our final game. The one that
20:39
everybody came here to listen about. The game
20:44
where Cam Akers had a touchdown pass. I love
20:47
it. I love it. Vikings getting the dub 21 -17
20:50
in London. What's your biggest takeaway, Rob?
20:53
Right off the bat, what comes to your mind immediately
20:55
for this game? What is it? I mean, it was an
20:58
ugly W. They got it done. Against a good Browns
21:03
defense, though. Again, we know that defense
21:05
is outstanding. I talked about it last week.
21:08
The Browns defense is no joke, obviously. That
21:11
front four, Collins, that D tackle has really
21:14
given us some fits. But overall, Brando's sliding
21:19
into center, playing center for the first time.
21:21
So that's my other big take. I give the offensive
21:25
line a... you know good solid b plus a minus
21:28
overall against a solid team you know it's a
21:32
solid front dude you know so and their cell just
21:35
pretty much shutting down garrett overall had
21:37
the lowest pressure i think you know all year
21:41
so far so they shut him down and It was just
21:44
a grind it out kind of style. We had some penalties
21:47
here and there, but it was kind of ugly overall.
21:51
But I said all we had to do was get to 17 -21,
21:54
and that's what they ended up being the score.
21:56
That's true. That's true. That was kind of called
21:58
the game. Yes, you did. Yes, you did. We just
22:02
got to get Jordan Mason some more windows. He
22:05
had a decent game. He had a decent game, just
22:08
kept rumbling along. And again. Can we be that
22:11
upset? Probably not. Like you said, the O -line
22:13
played great for a pieced -together O -line,
22:15
again, full of backups. We had, what, one, two
22:20
starters? Frye and... Frye's and Darrylson. Darrylson.
22:23
That's it. That's it, yeah. Mm -hmm. But Wen's
22:26
doing just enough, kind of, to get the job done,
22:29
keeping the ball out of trouble for the most
22:31
part, you know? Yeah, he's been... And another,
22:35
Mr. Jets, making some incredible catches. I mean,
22:40
I'm so glad he's on my team. That seam route
22:43
that he had that he had to come back for, there
22:46
was an out route that was super high that he
22:48
just climbed the ladder, took the hit, came down,
22:51
landed hard, over another 100 yards, just consistently.
22:55
And then Addison with another nice game after
22:59
coming off a quarter suspension for being late
23:02
to walk through. Oh, that's awesome, by the way.
23:05
Unbelievable. Unbelievable. But that game -winning
23:08
catch. What a catch by Addison. Great throw.
23:10
Great catch. It's a great play. Great pitch and
23:13
catch. Great play. I think they saw that in film,
23:15
that play. It looked like they go to Tampa, too,
23:18
where that corner sits, which was Ward. Because
23:21
Ward did not look like that was really going
23:23
to be his responsibility. And just took advantage
23:25
of the front corner. Yeah. And then that safety,
23:27
he had to cover that distance. He definitely
23:31
thought he had help over the top. Oh, for sure
23:33
he did. So it was just like, I don't know, typical,
23:37
something they found on film. So good film play
23:40
call there. 100%. So, of course, we love the
23:43
Vikes. But on the other side of the ball, Dylan
23:46
Gabriel didn't look that bad in his debut, really.
23:49
You know what I mean? True, true. Took care of
23:51
the ball. Yeah. Should we fire up the Vikings'
23:53
last drive there? Yeah, yeah. Might as well.
24:04
Wentz to the outside. Wentz over the middle first
24:10
down. That's where he was. 10 -15 is six catch
24:14
today. more enjoyable so but again for the team
25:04
that it's not so enjoyable for uh judkins having
25:07
a big day though over 100 big day big day for
25:10
joe yeah he's gonna be a tough he's gonna be
25:12
a beast in the nfl you could see it no joke it
25:14
was kind of nice to see him i mean okay not nice
25:17
in this game right yeah mike's fan but it's nice
25:19
to see him kind of bounce back uh what was it
25:22
was it last year he had that freaking horrible
25:24
accident or whatever burned part of his face
25:26
off playing a fireworks or is that no no that
25:29
was i know who's hurt so sorry but no it's great
25:34
to see great to see uh no joke who kind of getting
25:37
back at it getting back to knowing what he can
25:40
do he's a half late i think during the broadcast
25:43
they mentioned that he was a national high jump
25:45
champion in high school Oh, I thought I heard
25:48
something. Some version of that. Don't quote
25:50
me exactly version. Obviously, he can jump. He's
25:52
a freak athlete. Yeah, in general. Because he
25:54
leaped that guy. What did he leap? I haven't
25:59
paced, whiffed on it, and he hurtled him. But
26:02
good job. It was three and two. I mean, honestly,
26:07
we could be one and four. I have this feeling.
26:10
But we've just snuck out a couple games. Other
26:13
than the game against... bangles was the only
26:17
really confident win we've had and we've been
26:19
hey sneaking them out so we're battling we're
26:21
battling back so we'll take and the buy is a
26:24
perfect time for us oh no doubt 100 and then
26:27
coming back from two international games obviously
26:28
but um do you think cleveland can beat the steelers
26:32
in pittsburgh this week it's not a game we talk
26:34
about for sure i think they can i thought gabriel
26:37
i mean he had a good enough game i mean for his
26:40
first start i thought he played pretty well and
26:43
with dealing with one of the better defenses
26:46
and going overseas and dealing with all that
26:48
extra travel yes people say it's not a big deal
26:51
but i mean that's a long fight so it's gonna
26:52
mess with you a little bit it's his first start
26:54
you know it could be anywhere so yeah so and
26:58
duncan's played for good enough and so i mean
27:00
steelers defense is good you know so it's going
27:03
to be that interesting matchup it's going to
27:05
be you know then against cleveland against aaron
27:07
rodgers And we'll see if their left tackle can
27:10
handle Garrett, you know. And that's when Rodgers
27:13
starts making mistakes is when you really start.
27:15
He starts getting hit. He starts getting hit.
27:17
Yeah, for sure. No, totally. All right. Well,
27:20
that wraps that game, of course, with another
27:22
