  [SPEAKER_02]: You are listening to Do Valley Deep Divers with Eric Trickle and Lance Sanderson Well, comes out of the hands of Newton It's gone the ground picked up by TJ Ward at the 4-yard line Vaughn Miller did it again on overtime media
• 0:19
  [SPEAKER_03]: Welcome into another episode of the devality driver's eye mirror host or a trickle is going to meet as always is my answer.
• 0:24
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's interesting.
• 0:25
  [SPEAKER_03]: That's what I've had plenty of opportunity to talk about the vangles game you haven't had a chance yet.
• 0:29
  [SPEAKER_03]: So to kick us off first of all, how are you doing?
• 0:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: Doing good.
• 0:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's always great to be here on a wonderful Friday evening.
• 0:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: I got a chance to kind of watch back the the first half didn't get a chance to really break down the second half Watched a lot of it on the condensed replay But doing good.
• 0:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's always good to come into a wonderful double ID diver shows coming off from coming off on the way and we have a great match up this week I really do think that this game tomorrow.
• 0:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: I look at it.
• 0:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm more and more optimistic the breakfast.
• 0:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe pull this one off.
• 0:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: How are you?
• 1:00
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'm doing good.
• 1:02
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'm excited to be here.
• 1:03
  [SPEAKER_03]: I can't believe it's October already.
• 1:05
  [SPEAKER_03]: I can't know you're two weeks away from the meet and greet.
• 1:10
  [SPEAKER_03]: And it seems like the season just started just like a week ago.
• 1:15
  [SPEAKER_03]: It doesn't seem like for four weeks in.
• 1:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: But is there anything about the Bengals game before we get into it that you wanted to talk about or bring up or anything like that before we folk turn our focus and shift and shift onto the Philadelphia
• 1:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, first and foremost, I think that we saw a drastic improvement in Bonax's footwork.
• 1:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: And that's what really led to him being a more effective and more efficient quarterback against the Cincinnati Bengals, where if he wasn't climbing pockets that he didn't need to climb, he was stepping into throws, being way more accurate with the football better decision making.
• 1:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: We saw some explosive plays.
• 1:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: We saw him that touchdown throw that he made to Portland Sutton was absolutely fantastic.
• 1:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: to horrendous Jake Browning didn't have anywhere to go with the football.
• 2:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Pastor Tan was awesome, Riley Moss was a little shaky to start but had a good game overall.
• 2:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: So a good team win, I think that probably the biggest takeaway is when you're playing a bad team, the Broncos continued to prove that they're bad teams.
• 2:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now we need to see them play a good team, which is what we're going to get this weekend, and they need to prove that they can actually close out and finish games.
• 2:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: They had a big lead against the Bengals, and they held onto it.
• 2:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: They made plays when they needed to, even after the Poenix interception, they got big stops on defense, march down and store that touchdown light in the second quarter.
• 2:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: So a lot of positive signs, but it's a lot of what we saw last year as well.
• 2:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I need to see some more improvement from the soft end specifically.
• 2:47
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, one good thing when you look past the Eagles game, not that the Broncos are able to do that.
• 2:52
  [SPEAKER_03]: They have a lot of bad teams that coming up, the jets, the giants, the Cowboys, the Texans, the Raiders, all of them are looking like bad teams or nowhere near expectations in the case of the Houston Texans, with a very clear weakness with the offensive line and we just all went to ever do a offensive line that is.
• 3:09
  [SPEAKER_03]: Not better than Houston's, but not much worse than what Houston's doing with.
• 3:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's still the worst, the worst offensive line football right now.
• 3:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: That offensive line is absolutely dull.
• 3:18
  [SPEAKER_03]: The Bengals are worse, but not by much.
• 3:22
  [SPEAKER_03]: But before we get into it, talking about the broadcast Eagles game, we are going to say hello to some people here to the chat.
• 3:27
  [SPEAKER_03]: We have MBLE test prep tonight.
• 3:28
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'm here to party as always glad you can join us.
• 3:30
  [SPEAKER_03]: Our amazing goal of broadcast country only.
• 3:32
  [SPEAKER_03]: Woofee, woofee coming in with a gifting in my one-high, mild, high-hotel membership.
• 3:36
  [SPEAKER_03]: When you're not a member yourself, what's up with that?
• 3:39
  [SPEAKER_03]: Woofee, we appreciate the membership.
• 3:40
  [SPEAKER_03]: And if you were the one gifed to the membership, make sure you say thank you to woofee.
• 3:43
  [SPEAKER_03]: And what we also adds hit that like button.
• 3:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: You know what time it is not sure if anyone else has noticed, but we have a slight problem tackling guys.
• 3:48
  [SPEAKER_03]: And if we want to be silly, we need to go back to the basics of tackling.
• 3:53
  [SPEAKER_03]: Beating anybody you got really, really, you got to make sure you tackle and Denver has had an issue and there's one big culprit at that.
• 3:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: His name, Alex, and you'll don't shouldn't be mentioned.
• 4:02
  [SPEAKER_03]: We have Jordan Lewis coming in saying evening fell so excited for the game Sunday.
• 4:05
  [SPEAKER_03]: Let's go Broncos, glad you're excited.
• 4:07
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'm very excited as well.
• 4:08
  [SPEAKER_03]: Chase Walner with a DVD and the fist bump.
• 4:10
  [SPEAKER_03]: Chase still waiting for that membership, my man.
• 4:12
  [SPEAKER_03]: Ernie Mason, go Broncos country only.
• 4:14
  [SPEAKER_03]: Michael Rakeel, come in.
• 4:15
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's a good evening.
• 4:16
  [SPEAKER_03]: Eric and Lance on the Divinity Drivers.
• 4:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: Go Bob Broncos.
• 4:19
  [SPEAKER_03]: And we also have Peter Middleton slowly upsetting me and said me in the heart saying big weekend good morning from Singapore off to Lago land.
• 4:28
  [SPEAKER_03]: Oh Peter, you you break my heart.
• 4:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not beaten nearly as big into Legos as Eric is with all of the Star Wars collectibles and whatnot, but I still love Legos and I've always wanted to go to Lago land.
• 4:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm jealous of you, sir.
• 4:41
  [SPEAKER_03]: and Quentin called to come in and saying, Hey, everybody, make sure you guys come in if you are able to do so obviously super chats and stars are always appreciated you guys come over to Facebook or from Facebook to YouTube and become one of the members and all that stuff like that make sure you guys are doing that because it's a new speaking of legos.
• 4:57
  [SPEAKER_03]: There's a new legos said that comes out.
• 4:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's a thousand dollars.
• 4:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's the biggest legopiece.
• 5:00
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's a death star.
• 5:03
  [SPEAKER_03]: I need to be able to afford it guys.
• 5:05
  [SPEAKER_03]: So come on in but joking aside,
• 5:10
  [SPEAKER_03]: getting into the Eagles game, I am not confident in Denver can win this game.
• 5:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: I am not confident that they will be unable to shoot themselves in the foot to close out the game.
• 5:23
  [SPEAKER_03]: But there are a lot of ways they can beat the Eagles.
• 5:28
  [SPEAKER_03]: We dug into it a little bit beforehand and I'm going to hammer away on it.
• 5:31
  [SPEAKER_03]: I've already hammered away a little bit at it on Wednesday morning when I was doing the show with Dylan.
• 5:36
  [SPEAKER_03]: But there is one very clear weakness that the Eagles have that Denver should be able to exploit.
• 5:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: But before we get into that, we have filmed a clock and come in as a good evening, Eric and Lance.
• 5:46
  [SPEAKER_03]: How do you guys think will be the best option?
• 5:47
  [SPEAKER_03]: Pass or run?
• 5:48
  [SPEAKER_03]: Hopefully even split.
• 5:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, Phil is dive into it, man.
• 5:52
  [SPEAKER_03]: Let's dive into it.
• 5:53
  [SPEAKER_03]: The best way for the Broncos to move the ball the way that they should be able to move the ball and have the most success run the ball down the Eagles throats primarily between the tackles they are an awful run defense and between the tackles you get jail and Carter who has very questionable effort Jordan Davis who as big as he is it's not always showing up on the field with effort and
• 6:16
  [SPEAKER_03]: Conditioning as an issue moral or drama who absolutely love as a past rushing defensive linemen is not good against run even though he can have some flashes Run the ball down their throats between the tackle specifically outside the tackles you can have some success But this is a terrible rushing defense when it comes to there between the tackle play and I've got plenty of numbers to dive into
• 6:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like honestly to me, it's the the big issues that you are seeing right now is Jordan Davis Jalen Carter.
• 6:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not playing with the high end effort.
• 6:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not playing with the high end talent.
• 6:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: But these are one of those guys.
• 6:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Both of those guys are incredibly strong.
• 6:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're incredibly stout.
• 6:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: They do a great job up front.
• 6:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're just not playing with the effort right now.
• 6:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: And that's when he is the biggest issue.
• 6:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: Then Zack Bon is great as a blitzer.
• 7:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's great in coverage, but in run defense, he's not playing Gap Sound assignment football.
• 7:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Jihad Campbell is struggling with that as well.
• 7:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, there are opportunities here for the Broncos to get to the second level, get some Gap separation open up, get these linebackers out of the way, and then the big thing here.
• 7:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that JK Dobbins is the big answer in this running game.
• 7:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: With the way that he has played, following that week one, what's the week one gaming at the Tennessee Titans, I thought he was awful.
• 7:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: I really did.
• 7:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: I thought the explosiveness wasn't there.
• 7:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: I thought the vision wasn't there.
• 7:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: I thought the patience wasn't there.
• 7:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Every single week since then, he has gotten better and better at allowing his blockers up front his offensive line to set up blocks, move guys out of the way, he's showing that verse, he's showing the ability to make explosive runs.
• 7:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: Broncos are one of the best teams in the NFL right now at explosive run rate.
• 7:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not great in success rate overall, but they have created a lot of explosive runs.
• 8:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: and J.K.
• 8:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: Dobbins with the vision, the patience, and everything, the acceleration that he has, has really been one of the best running backs in the NFL.
• 8:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: I believe right now he's fourth in Russian force or fifth in Russian yards this season, and this last game against the Cincinnati Bengals really kind of highlighted that.
• 8:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: He went for the, for the first time in what 38 games, J.K.
• 8:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: Dobbins broke this century mark for the, for the Denver Broncos.
• 8:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: This team is starting to find that kind of identity, and they're getting away from the outside zone.
• 8:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're starting to focus on du load, they're getting more power game, they're getting bed powers out, who's doing a great job on polls, when miners are starting to dominate up front again.
• 8:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: This is where the Broncos can actually start to chip away at this Philadelphia Eels the defense and keep the offense off the field.
• 8:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: And that to me is the biggest focus point of this
• 8:53
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, another thing before I dive into the numbers here, Alex Pelcheski is kind of a secret key player for this game, so the Broncos have used jumbo packages the second most in the NFL, only behind the Washington Commanders, or sorry, they're tied with the Washington Commanders for the most.
• 9:08
  [SPEAKER_03]: And of that, the Broncos actually lead the NFL by having gained 101 rushing yards with 27 yards overexpected out of jumbo packages.
• 9:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: They are doing a great job with it and getting into this.
• 9:20
  [SPEAKER_03]: When rushing between the tackles, the Broncos have the fourth most 10 plus yard runs.
• 9:24
  [SPEAKER_03]: They're having the second highest yards per play at 5 and a half.
• 9:29
  [SPEAKER_03]: they are allowing the fifth lowest run stuff right only 10.2% of the runs between the tackles are being stopped.
• 9:35
  [SPEAKER_03]: They're averaging 1.8 yards rushing yards over expected for attempt and 1.82 yards before contact.
• 9:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: That is the highest and second highest respectively with a 51% success rate rush in the ball between the tackles which is the six best in the NFL.
• 9:50
  [SPEAKER_03]: The Broncos, even though Luke Watt and Burke has been a clear issue for this team, they are still managing to get it done when rushing between the tackles.
• 9:57
  [SPEAKER_03]: They are not having the problems outside because again, the biggest detriment, and I've talked about this on Monday, I talked about it on Tuesday.
• 10:02
  [SPEAKER_03]: On Wednesday, I've talked about it multiple times.
• 10:04
  [SPEAKER_03]: The biggest detriment to this Broncos rushing offense has been the play of the tight ends.
• 10:07
  [SPEAKER_03]: And so when it rush means when tackles, you're really limiting to impact those tight ends are having on it.
• 10:12
  [SPEAKER_03]: Meanwhile, the Philadelphia run defense, they are allowing the eighth most ten plus yard runs.
• 10:18
  [SPEAKER_03]: They're allowing the seventh worst yards per play, they're allowing the worst they're getting the worst run stuff right only 2.3 runs up the middle the equals are stuffing 2.3% they're allowing 0.7 yet 5 yard rush yards over expected for a 10, which is the 7th worst and 1.62 yards before contact per attempt.
• 10:37
  [SPEAKER_03]: That means you team players are getting basically 2 yards before they're even touched by an equals defender.
• 10:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
• 10:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: That is the second worst right in the NFL.
• 10:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: When you put the numbers against the Broncos, the Broncos should easily be able to run the ball between the tackles and hopefully force adjustments from Vic Vangio that can open up other elements of this game, like opening up rushing outside the tackles, opening up the passing game.
• 10:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: I talked about this on Monday and I believe once in morning.
• 11:02
  [SPEAKER_03]: Sean Payton is very new school.
• 11:04
  [SPEAKER_03]: He believes in you pass the set of the run.
• 11:06
  [SPEAKER_03]: This is one of those games where you go old old school.
• 11:09
  [SPEAKER_03]: Big banjo is old school.
• 11:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: So you match that.
• 11:12
  [SPEAKER_03]: You go old school.
• 11:13
  [SPEAKER_03]: You run to set up the pass.
• 11:15
  [SPEAKER_03]: You build off the running and Denver.
• 11:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: Again, everything is aligning where Denver can have that success running the ball between the tackles against this Eagles defense, which have issues with a defensive linemen properly late, properly gapping and with the linebackers who are
• 11:32
  [SPEAKER_03]: struggling to get off blocks if they even get into the right lane.
• 11:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
• 11:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: And the big thing here, and I think that we need to go back to jail and Carter and Jordan Davis here, we talked about effort here.
• 11:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: The big thing is fighting off double teams and fighting off even just single blocks to try to move offensive linemen.
• 11:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not getting any kind of leverage right now.
• 11:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: Both of those players have been known to stand up.
• 11:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: They stand up and they allow their chest plates to get a
• 12:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: They both went with explosiveness, they're, yeah, they two got at Georgia, but they're not playing a good two gap defense, which is what Vic Fangio wants you to do in the running game, because then it allows your live backers to flow behind you.
• 12:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Your live backers aren't reading it, right?
• 12:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: So if they're not going to hold offensive linemen away from getting up the field to attack these linebackers,
• 12:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're going to have issues in the running game, just plain, put, put like, period.
• 12:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's exactly what's going on with this with this Philadelphia Eagles defense right now.
• 12:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're not getting any push up front.
• 12:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're not getting any hold from these guys up front in the running game.
• 12:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then your, your linebackers, whether it's, whether it's zack bond.
• 12:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: Whether it is Jihad Campbell or even in the safety play with a especially red blanket ship I think that he's been a solid player in coverage, but he's been absolutely atrocious still in gaps in the running game.
• 12:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: You need to power run the football against this against the Philadelphia Eagle scene and I think that Ben Powers is really going to eat when he's pulling as a puller that that dude is fantastic.
• 13:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: He creates so much displacement as a puller
• 13:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: That to me is the biggest match up to watch is getting Ben power is moving and getting getting him some momentum so we can really drive that 300 and what 30 pound brand that he has with him and getting the players displaced opening up these running lanes and just run right behind him because he's been fantastic and this is the biggest weakness of the Philadelphia Eagles defense right now.
• 13:31
  [SPEAKER_03]: We have Glenn Ashley come in and say good morning, Eric and Lance, if I remember right Glenn is down under joining us.
• 13:37
  [SPEAKER_03]: So obviously time zones quite different.
• 13:39
  [SPEAKER_03]: He says really excited for the Eagles game.
• 13:41
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's going to show us a lot about a resolve and where we truly are at.
• 13:44
  [SPEAKER_03]: I think we run the ball.
• 13:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: Like we did last week.
• 13:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's our best chance 100% definitely agree with that.
• 13:49
  [SPEAKER_03]: The numbers, the even watching the film.
• 13:51
  [SPEAKER_03]: My son, I were watching some of the specifically runs between the tackles against the Eagles that their defense has had to stop and they were not doing a good job at it.
• 13:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: But Glenn and Peter Milton, you guys coming in really does show that, you know, we, that this is a not a geographical location.
• 14:07
  [SPEAKER_03]: It is a state of being and just coming in from Singapore and down under and we appreciate you guys coming in and making the time for us on what is for us a Friday night or a Saturday morning for you or whatever time it happens to be in Singapore.
• 14:21
  [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know the time.
• 14:22
  [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know the time there.
• 14:23
  [SPEAKER_03]: My core on Kayla coming in and saying, Argya Harvey is looking like the new Joker on the offense.
• 14:27
  [SPEAKER_03]: Kay Adams had a video done with running back Argya Harvey with the same number as Newell and Sam's running back Alvin Camara.
• 14:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Argya Harvey has really showed what he can do as a receiver out of the back field against the bangles.
• 14:39
  [SPEAKER_03]: There was a couple missed opportunities.
• 14:41
  [SPEAKER_03]: Bo Nix was late with an off-place with a throw to him down the seam.
• 14:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: And so you got to work on that still can see a little bit more consistency against the run, but he's looking like he's Starting to put pieces together Cory Johnson saying we can't have weeks one through three for a sudden or week four for inkland if we want to win this game We need week four ever from Sutton.
• 14:57
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'd say week three or four or week two or three for Sutton or and week three and four for Franklin Franklin was really good the first two weeks.
• 15:05
  [SPEAKER_03]: He was bad the last two weeks Sutton that started off this season really good and it was good last week But this is a tough matchup when it comes to coverage.
• 15:12
  [SPEAKER_03]: Quinnian Mitchell has been probably
• 15:15
  [SPEAKER_03]: the best corner in the NFL through four weeks.
• 15:18
  [SPEAKER_03]: And he's absolutely selling in the zone coverage at Fick, Manjoo runs and spent in working all over.
• 15:25
  [SPEAKER_03]: When working deep, 10 yards down the field in areas, specifically.
• 15:29
  [SPEAKER_03]: Mitchell has been targeted eight times.
• 15:31
  [SPEAKER_03]: He's only allowed two recepions.
• 15:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: He's been consistently matched up against the opponent's top receiver in this case, Sutton for 173 routes since the start of last year.
• 15:40
  [SPEAKER_03]: That is the second most of any defender.
• 15:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: And if I remember right, that's only behind Patrick's return.
• 15:47
  [SPEAKER_03]: Um, so he's we're going to see a lot on it.
• 15:49
  [SPEAKER_03]: If I'm Denver, I'm doing what I can to get, quote, and match up with against either Adori Jackson or Kiely Ringo, whoever ends up starting opposite him, I know Jackson's been hurt and Ringo started this last week, but I think Jackson is good to go for this game.
• 16:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Um, yes, he has no injury, designation.
• 16:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's actually no eagles within the injury, designation except for Nicobie name.
• 16:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: I have it pulled up on Broncos.com right now and he has no, no injury designation that we set right now.
• 16:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, no.
• 16:21
  [SPEAKER_03]: We've seen he's out for Philadelphia and Lucas Croll is the only Broncos player that's out for the Broncos.
• 16:25
  [SPEAKER_03]: Everybody else is willing to available.
• 16:27
  [SPEAKER_03]: Um, so, and even though if Joey Jackson's good to go, there's been talk of them making that switch anyways, so not sure who it's going to, who it's going to be, I'm going to do what I can, but either way, Troy Franklin, Denver needs him in this game, the Eagles have done a, have had a rough go of it as of late in allowing yards after the catch, and that is something that Troy Franklin has shown he can do quite well.
• 16:53
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'd like to see Pat Bryant get out there a little bit because he's shown he can do it.
• 16:56
  [SPEAKER_03]: But Denver definitely uses it from Detroit for anything.
• 16:58
  [SPEAKER_03]: If this is a quiet day from quote and sudden, I wouldn't be surprised at all.
• 17:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: But I think that with what we saw this last week with Martin Mensey and more involved in the offense, I think that that's a big ticket out of here too as well.
• 17:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like the explosiveness in terms of what he brings with the football in his hands, that to me is something you can exploit because Eric, you had it pulled up.
• 17:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: I got to get back to it.
• 17:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: So yards after catch over-expected right now.
• 17:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: The Philadelphia Eagles rank second worst in the NFL.
• 17:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: And in terms of yards after the catch over-expected over the course of the season that not still bring out short plays, intermediate plays, long passing plays.
• 17:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you have a player with a speed and the vision that Marvin Nimm's has against a defense that likes to limit an explosiveness, they like to limit an explosive play.
• 17:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: This was the big danger that had been known for.
• 17:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: We watched it for four years here in Denver.
• 17:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's not going to try to, like he's going to try to limit those explosive plays.
• 18:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Marvin Nins brings you that explosive the explosive play potential for Franklin gives you that explosive play potential.
• 18:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: We saw that against any Apple's tools, particularly on a slant play where he ran all the way across the field, Danner got a touchdown, one play layer, they get a Troy Franklin in the end zone to capitalize on that drive.
• 18:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: And to me, it's those two players.
• 18:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's Marvin Nims, it's Troy Franklin.
• 18:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: Pat Bryant is a good shout there as well.
• 18:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think that that would be a great way to go against this Eagle secondary who they can play with some physicality.
• 18:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: They do drive very well, vertically on the football.
• 18:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Bigger players do better jobs at breaking tackles.
• 18:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: So Bryan's a good shout here.
• 18:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: But to me, I think Marvin Nims and he's having another big game against this team, where they play off coverage.
• 18:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: They don't play a whole lot of man.
• 18:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're playing more man than they usually do.
• 18:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: but get him to ball over the middle of field and just let him go to work.
• 18:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: I've been begging for that for damn your two years now.
• 18:57
  [SPEAKER_03]: Lance, I swear, one of these days, if you're listening again, find somebody who won't quit you like, Lance won't quit, Marvin Manfer over the middle of the field.
• 19:07
  [SPEAKER_03]: because Lance forgets how damaging safety is are when they're coming down hill when a receiver is working the middle of the field.
• 19:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right.
• 19:13
  [SPEAKER_03]: That's what gets some scans of West Walkers brain, and that'll give you the evidence as to what I'm talking about with it.
• 19:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Can I also throw in the fact that Marvin Nins is in the lead, Potreturner, and who does he run into all that?
• 19:25
  [SPEAKER_03]: There's a difference.
• 19:26
  [SPEAKER_03]: You're looking ahead with defenders coming at you and said of looking back at the ball with defenders coming back from behind your point.
• 19:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's a fair point.
• 19:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: There's a difference between Potreturns and working the middle of the
• 19:37
  [SPEAKER_03]: Peter Melton saying it's 9 a.m.
• 19:38
  [SPEAKER_03]: so that is a why about a 16 hour difference for me 17 hour difference for me, I'll try to remember that Peter, Peter Tim, but no guarantees.
• 19:51
  [SPEAKER_03]: Quentin called, welcome in with a video of Super Chat saying hey, Eric and Lance could this be a game where who fungi can have a very busy day and is it possible for him to play as a spy and stop the run.
• 20:00
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, this is a game where I would really be looking at Vanchos of using Brandon Jones as that high safety and bringing who found that down a little bit, not only because of the threat the Eagles have when they can work that shorter game of it with AJ Brown on those screens or debonti Smith catching those quick passes those quick slants and being able to make something happen after the catch.
• 20:22
  [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, as well as being able to spy on Jalen Hertz and contribute to shutting down Sequoen Barclay with what we've seen Alex Seagullton do when trying to cover running backs.
• 20:31
  [SPEAKER_03]: Not good.
• 20:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
• 20:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: This should be a very big game for who Fonga as it should have been against the cults, which I bring up because Vans shows have didn't use who Fonga that way.
• 20:43
  [SPEAKER_03]: So I wonder, I hope Vans shows have learned from his mistake and uses who Fonga properly in this one.
• 20:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I think the other thing here is, hopefully, Van Shows have learned from his mistakes going against Lamar Jackson last year.
• 20:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: Jalen Hurts has the ability to run on you.
• 20:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: And he's not as explosive as Lamar Jackson is, but he can take advantage of soft coverage and zone coverage at the second level and he can really kind of grind out yardage on the ground.
• 21:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: And to be honest here, I think they need to get after jail and hers and try to get them off as spot to where you can force them into mistakes and place some type coverage where you can force them into throwing some interceptions.
• 21:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's me is a big thing here and who fought in the running game.
• 21:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: that needs to be a big focus here.
• 21:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: St.
• 21:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: Juan Barthley is one of the best running backs in the NFL in terms of forcing missed tackles this season.
• 21:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: I don't have the exact numbers, but I know that he has been consistently good throughout his entire career in terms of forcing missed tackles.
• 21:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Brandon Jones, while I saw a tackler, is not Palano who Funga, who Funga has been playing absolutely spectacular driving on runs, is driving you to running in this year.
• 21:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: And to me, you get in closer to the line of scrimmage.
• 21:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: You can make him focus on those running.
• 22:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: They can be a spy, not only against the run game with Sake Juan Barfleet, but use him as a spy on jail and hurts.
• 22:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: chase him around and go hit him because Talladil Fonga is one of the most physical hitters in the NFL.
• 22:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: So that's where I'm, I played man coverage and I have one of your men be focused on Jalen Hertz and that should be Talladil who Fonga.
• 22:22
  [SPEAKER_03]: yeah sorry uh and so as I talked about not this last Monday but the Monday before our cut we started having issues with our car it got into the shop and just after we went like my wife got a call from them and we're able to get our car come to find out fortunately it was only needed oil.
• 22:39
  [SPEAKER_03]: I am not a car person and my defense here.
• 22:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: uh... and i am one of those that since i am not a car person if anything happens it's to the car shop with it uh... only thing i can do is i can change a headlight that's about it and change a tire i know i don't even know how to put gas in a car uh... that's not a bit but it was so uh... fun fact about it he doesn't even have drivers license i do not i am terrified of driving but we're not here to talk about that we're not talking here to talk about my fears uh... because i have a bigger fear of driving than i do of the eagles this week
• 23:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: But we have more super chats here.
• 23:13
  [SPEAKER_03]: And before we get back into this, this coded W with a five dollar subject saying Dabbins has something to prove.
• 23:18
  [SPEAKER_03]: He wants to show everyone what he can do with the year of not rehabbing an injury, beat the Eagles at their own game.
• 23:22
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I talked about this, I believe on Monday.
• 23:26
  [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't realize this was the first off season, since coming into the NFL where Dabbins didn't have, wasn't going through rehab.
• 23:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: that every other off the other every other option he's been rehabbing from injury.
• 23:37
  [SPEAKER_03]: I didn't know that until he had it, he made that comment about it during this week.
• 23:44
  [SPEAKER_03]: And that, I mean, I was very questionable about JK document.
• 23:50
  [SPEAKER_03]: There is no denying that it's not hard to go back and watch.
• 23:52
  [SPEAKER_03]: I was very questionable about it.
• 23:54
  [SPEAKER_03]: Because last year he was great for the first four weeks, but then he absolutely fell off and was one of the most inefficient runningbacks to close up the season for the chargers.
• 24:01
  [SPEAKER_03]: had a lot of questions, but he was able to focus on just improving his himself and not having to work back from injury.
• 24:08
  [SPEAKER_03]: And we're definitely seeing that.
• 24:09
  [SPEAKER_03]: There are still some issues with his game.
• 24:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: He still isn't the most versatile or explosive guy, but he's still managing to turn out 10 plus your hard run.
• 24:16
  [SPEAKER_03]: So he's still having those explosive runs, even though he doesn't have that explosive speed.
• 24:21
  [SPEAKER_03]: And it's working because of the physicality that he has.
• 24:24
  [SPEAKER_03]: We also have Camden coming in with a $10 superchett saying what's up Broncos country I'm super excited for the game on Sunday versus the Eagles is the lack of turnovers for the Broncos D A problem or does it not matter as much because of the elite pass rush?
• 24:34
  [SPEAKER_03]: It always matters.
• 24:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want to talk about this.
• 24:38
  [SPEAKER_03]: The Broncos have look like they have a good defense
• 24:41
  [SPEAKER_03]: And one of the ways they can, there's two ways, in my, for me, that they can become a great defense cut back on the stupid penalties for more takeaways turn force turnovers that is what can make a good defense a great defense or even an elite defense and they're just lacking that.
• 24:58
  [SPEAKER_03]: So yes, it is a problem for it and turnovers are something that are hard to predict and are not always, you know, the most translatable from game to game, but this is something that the Broncos need to look into trying to generate more is more takeaways.
• 25:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, you're absolutely not wrong.
• 25:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: I listen to you and Nick on Tuesday night for a little bit.
• 25:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: I actually threw a couple of comments and they're not sure if you saw them or not.
• 25:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: You guys were talking about the lack of turnovers and how that is, absolutely is a problem right now.
• 25:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: The Broncos need to be better.
• 25:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: If nothing else, interceptions are always volatile.
• 25:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: Fumbles are always volatile, but the one thing you can do defensively is continue to create consistent pressure against the quarterback.
• 25:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: and force him to make mental mistakes with football.
• 25:44
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to leave you out there.
• 25:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to jump out of here so we can go get our car.
• 25:48
  [SPEAKER_03]: My answer to carry it away.
• 25:49
  [SPEAKER_03]: Take it for a few minutes and continue to take it.
• 25:51
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'll be right back.
• 25:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right.
• 25:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: So the big thing here, guys, is turnovers are so super volatile.
• 25:58
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like they're incredibly hard to predict.
• 26:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're incredibly hard to create.
• 26:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: But the best way that you can go about creating turnovers
• 26:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: into bad decision making, you've got to continue to create pressure with the way that the Broncos are playing in cover right now, with the way that the Broncos are playing in cover right now, they're allowing some of the lowest yards of separation against all source of passes, whether it's in the short game, whether it's in the intermediate game, whether it's in the deep passing game.
• 26:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: These cornerbacks are playing incredibly well.
• 26:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I want to highlight just Riley Moss for a minute because he's been one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL in terms of forcing completions.
• 26:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's done a great job staying sticky in coverage.
• 26:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's been feisty despite the lack of length, which Eric brought out the other day.
• 26:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: These guys are playing so well in coverage right now.
• 26:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: The biggest thing here is that if you continue to create consistent pressure against quarterbacks, force them into tight window throws,
• 27:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're going to start creating more turnovers.
• 27:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're going to start creating more forcing completions.
• 27:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: And the biggest thing here is continue playing well against the run.
• 27:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like you've got to start punching at the football.
• 27:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's one of the things that this Broncos team isn't doing well enough.
• 27:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not punching at the football.
• 27:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're not playing the peanut punch type of defense.
• 27:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're they're game tackling, but they're not swiping at the ball nearly that often enough.
• 27:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: So like the the big thing here is again, like,
• 27:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: these turnovers and the lack of turnovers right now isn't necessarily the biggest deal because you're doing everything so well across a defensive formation in terms of just creating so much pressure.
• 27:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: you're playing in tight coverage.
• 27:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're playing well against run in terms of bringing multiple tacklers to running backs in open field.
• 27:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you can start taking a little bit more advantage of some of these tight covers, these high pressure situations, these turnovers are gonna start coming for this defense.
• 28:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: It may not be like the 2015 level of defense where they were very, very good at creating a lot of pressure and creating a lot of turnovers.
• 28:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're creating pressure.
• 28:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: Open field tackling opportunities, you have the opportunity to do that, you just got to capitalize on it, just a little bit more.
• 28:26
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
• 28:27
  [SPEAKER_03]: Um, I can't talk a lot about what I heard because I didn't hear a lot of it.
• 28:30
  [SPEAKER_03]: Um, again, it is so good to finally bring your car back.
• 28:35
  [SPEAKER_03]: Anyways, we have Michael and Caleb coming and saying, who gifted five mile, how do memberships?
• 28:39
  [SPEAKER_03]: If you guys were one of those in the chat, I'm lucky enough to get one of those memberships.
• 28:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: Make sure you give a thank you to Michael.
• 28:44
  [SPEAKER_03]: We appreciate that.
• 28:46
  [SPEAKER_03]: We appreciate you coming in all as much as you do Michael every every single every single night, every single show with the support and everything.
• 28:53
  [SPEAKER_03]: But I want to get back to the Broncos rushing offensive against the Russian defense.
• 28:57
  [SPEAKER_03]: We've talked a lot about JK Dobbins for it.
• 28:58
  [SPEAKER_03]: I think there's an opportunity for RJ Harvey here as well when you look outside the tackle running.
• 29:03
  [SPEAKER_03]: So when you look outside the tackle, the Eagles do do a little bit better.
• 29:06
  [SPEAKER_03]: They're about middle of the pack.
• 29:09
  [SPEAKER_03]: And the Broncos, for the most part, they're actually top 10 when rushing outside the
• 29:21
  [SPEAKER_03]: 10 they are set they have the seventh most time plus shot runs they have 10 of them on the season so far they're ninth in yards per play they're tied ninth for stuff great uh they're ninth in rush yards over expected per attempt they're not getting a lot of yards before contact
• 29:36
  [SPEAKER_03]: and they're 23rd in success rate.
• 29:39
  [SPEAKER_03]: 37.9 of the runs outside of the tackle has been successful.
• 29:41
  [SPEAKER_03]: They are very boomer bust.
• 29:43
  [SPEAKER_03]: This is an area where it's eagles with their middle of the pack, aspect of it.
• 29:47
  [SPEAKER_03]: The Broncos can sit there and use RJ Harvey as a counter to JK Tobins, which I cannot believe that it took Sean Peyton three games before he started giving the running backs a series instead of going the canful of plays and rotating them.
• 30:02
  [SPEAKER_03]: It is so much more efficient for and better for your running backs to give them series.
• 30:06
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's like we talked about running our quarterbacks getting into the rhythm.
• 30:10
  [SPEAKER_03]: Same thing is this is true for your running backs.
• 30:13
  [SPEAKER_03]: If you rush them three times, then you pull them off the field and insert another running back.
• 30:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: You're destroying that rhythm.
• 30:18
  [SPEAKER_03]: and sometimes you're holding your offense back a little bit because they start seeing something and that can be exploited on that series and the next time they're in a couple of ways and next time they're out there the defense may have made a substitution or something changed.
• 30:31
  [SPEAKER_03]: So
• 30:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: I think the Broncos would be wise to sit there and really pound the rock between the tackles with RJ with JK Dobbins and then use RJ Harvey outside and again, continue to use him in the past and game as well.
• 30:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: And Michael asking for the Broncos running backs run insider out.
• 30:50
  [SPEAKER_03]: both.
• 30:50
  [SPEAKER_03]: The focus should be between the tackles with using RJ Harvey as a counter to outside, because eventually the ideal situation is you rush inside with good success that Vic Vangeo starts collapsing inwards a little bit with his defense of frontness edges and his linebackers to really try to stop that run and then you're able to get an explosive run outside the tackles by eight with a crack toss or a pitch or stretch run to RJ Harvey.
• 31:16
  [SPEAKER_03]: So you really want to use that to again, I'd mentioned it earlier, run to set up the past.
• 31:20
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's also run to set up the run, run inside, to set up the outside stuff that Denver does and all that.
• 31:26
  [SPEAKER_03]: Now, I want to flip over.
• 31:27
  [SPEAKER_03]: I want to talk about the Philadelphia offense against this Denver defense.
• 31:32
  [SPEAKER_03]: I know you're talking a lot about the pressures here.
• 31:35
  [SPEAKER_03]: There is a lot of possibility or a lot of room for success against this Broncos defense against the Philadelphia Eagles offense, but it all comes down to the wide receiver matchups here.
• 31:44
  [SPEAKER_03]: Precious Tan, he should be all over AJ Brown, he should shadow him, and there should be worry here.
• 31:50
  [SPEAKER_03]: AJ Brown has been a quiet, has been quiet through four games this season.
• 31:53
  [SPEAKER_03]: He has as many targetless halves this year as he does from 2022 through 2024.
• 31:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: So everything, he's at at least one half in every single game where he hasn't had a single target.
• 32:09
  [SPEAKER_03]: That means that there's a good chance to look to force feed him in this one, especially with him already voicing some frustrations.
• 32:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I was just about to say that with him voicing the frustrations and being cryptic on Twitter, this this dude.
• 32:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: When you break down the numbers, I was listening to Trevor Sikima and Dalton Wasserman earlier over the summer.
• 32:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: They were breaking down the white receiver ranking, going into the season, and they actually had AJ Brown as the number one white receiver in the NFL based on what they, the numbers that they pulled.
• 32:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: I wish I had that information, but this is off the top of my head.
• 32:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: Number one in target rate, number two in success rate, number one in the arms after the
• 32:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: big-time statistical categories.
• 32:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: AJ Brown has consistently been over the last three seasons, right there with Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase.
• 33:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: This dude is in a leap football player, and he's pissed off that he's kind of relegated to more of a blocking wider silver and accent piece to an offense.
• 33:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: When he should be one of the higher target rate white receivers in the NFL because he is so successful with the ball on his hands.
• 33:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's explosive as a playmaker.
• 33:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: He does a great job.
• 33:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: Again, as a blocker like this is one of the more well rounded white receivers.
• 33:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's pissed off right now and I think he should be because this Philadelphia Eagles offense, they are 31st in the NFL and passing yards per game and they're 16th in the running game.
• 33:36
  [SPEAKER_01]: This offense is not performing it as a high of a level as what everyone thinks that it is.
• 33:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, they're scoring a whole lot of points.
• 33:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: But a lot of those points are coming from their special teams.
• 33:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: They have three block field goals, two of them returned for touchdowns, a block pump for a touchdown.
• 33:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: And at least one, I think a second, but I don't remember off the top of my head, one interception return.
• 34:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like this team is so well rounded right now that they don't necessarily need the offense to dominate like they did last season or over the last 20 games in 20 out of 21 games, including the Super Bowl, they've won in a row.
• 34:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: that they don't need this passing attack to be the true metric of where the offensive success comes from.
• 34:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: And AJ Brown with this talented as he is, he deserves the football way more.
• 34:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: I understand the frustration.
• 34:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: I do agree with you, Eric.
• 34:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that this is one of those games where, hey, we're gonna line you up against Pastor Tan and see what you can do.
• 34:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you can go beat Pastor Tan, then we'll start feeding the ball to you more.
• 34:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: We're gonna force feet in your direction.
• 34:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: and try to take advantage of what I think is actually a good match up for AJ Brown going to get certain.
• 34:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Now let's praise you to say, but AJ Brown does does the good things that certain struggles with the quickness and separation of specific meal over the middle of the field like AJ Brown does a great job on slancy does great job on in breaking routes he does a great job on screenplays.
• 35:03
  [SPEAKER_01]: Those are areas where certain needs to be better overall as a player and
• 35:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
• 35:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: Now, another thing with this is, but we have quoted I've been coming in with $2, uh, super chat saying said you should know exactly how big a defense place, um, not necessarily.
• 35:21
  [SPEAKER_03]: Like, you obviously knows the basics of what Vic Viangeo wants to do with his defense, but different team, different players, far different talent levels, those all change a little bit.
• 35:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: You'll have a general idea of what's going to be thrown his way, but it's still, it's
• 35:39
  [SPEAKER_03]: You don't know what's going to be called any given time because you don't know what trust are going to you don't know what they're going to do for all we know big advantage it could be feeling himself and not put when you're in Mitchell on going sudden you can be like hey we're going to put so and so on and we're going to we're going to put Cooper to gene on something for all we know doubt that happened it's going to be quintessential but and just to make my point there um now going on continue on this
• 36:04
  [SPEAKER_03]: The biggest thing is we've talked a lot about the, we talked throughout the week and even even even last week leading up to the game.
• 36:09
  [SPEAKER_03]: We talked a lot about the Denver's, the Broncos defensive matchups on the often defensive line against, I put the Bengals offensive line.
• 36:15
  [SPEAKER_03]: And there's a lot to talk about here with the Eagles one, too.
• 36:18
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
• 36:18
  [SPEAKER_03]: Or my lot against Nick Benito, this is the toughest matchup Nick Benito probably has all season long.
• 36:25
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
• 36:25
  [SPEAKER_03]: My lot of has been a top three offensive tackle this year with Garrett Bowles and Penace
• 36:31
  [SPEAKER_03]: And they have been far and away, the top three with everybody else behind him, Joe Alt was up there and the next we need to brought him down to reality before he got hurt unfortunately.
• 36:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: So that's a tough one, Lane Johnson.
• 36:44
  [SPEAKER_03]: He's been dealing with some interest.
• 36:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: He's not the player he wants was so Jordan Jonathan Cooper against Lane Johnson.
• 36:49
  [SPEAKER_03]: That's an issue.
• 36:50
  [SPEAKER_03]: So one, but this interior offensive line of the Eagles is why they're struggling to do anything on offense.
• 36:56
  [SPEAKER_03]: This rushing attack is not good.
• 36:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: Even if you factor out the touch push plays, they are still a really bad rushing offense.
• 37:05
  [SPEAKER_03]: And actually it makes it worse because those touch players, when you take those out, that significantly lowers their success right running the ball.
• 37:12
  [SPEAKER_03]: Because even though they're only picking up a yard or two on the touch push, those are successful runs because they're using it to pick up the first down.
• 37:19
  [SPEAKER_03]: And so it's first down, automatic success gives you a new set of downs.
• 37:26
  [SPEAKER_03]: Denver has such a good matchup with John Franklin Myers against Landon Dickerson and Zach Allen against Tylerstein and even if they flip the two, which they'd have been doing a little bit more throughout the last couple weeks,
• 37:40
  [SPEAKER_03]: Zach Allen against Linder Dickerson is an advantage for Denver and John Fuck and Myers against Tyler scene.
• 37:44
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's probably even the biggest matchup out of the four possible matchups of these guys.
• 37:49
  [SPEAKER_03]: And so Denver should be able to really control the middle.
• 37:52
  [SPEAKER_03]: Their focus here really needs to be limiting Jalen Hertz and what he can do with his legs and getting outside the pocket, which we talked about earlier about bringing Hufanga down and using him to spy or even using Nick Benito's
• 38:04
  [SPEAKER_03]: and the biggest thing, they gotta keep the Eagles behind schedule.
• 38:09
  [SPEAKER_03]: They cannot get them into short yarded situations where as DJ Jones said, their best way of stopping the run is to grab their nuts and hope for the best.
• 38:19
  [SPEAKER_03]: and cannot get them into the short yarded situations where they can use the touch push because guess what, even though the NFL revs have been focusing on cutting down on alignment penalties for the offense, the touch push is apparently exempt because they line up off sides and in the nudges on every single time they do it and it's never freaking calm.
• 38:37
  [SPEAKER_03]: I don't think the place should be banned but it should be penalized when they do that.
• 38:41
  [SPEAKER_03]: But that's another point.
• 38:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: Just keep them from getting into that by keeping them behind schedule.
• 38:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's the biggest thing, like this offense does such a great job of converting first and 10 into second and five, first and 10 into second and four.
• 38:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then they convert second and four into third and two.
• 38:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: and here comes a touch push.
• 38:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: And then they want to get creative all of a sudden, instead of doing a touch push inside the red zone, they flip over a verse off of it and score a touchdown.
• 39:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like, that's the biggest thing.
• 39:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like you said, keep this defense behind the sticks.
• 39:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: If you can limit the running game.
• 39:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: And to me, I think the biggest match up here is whoever's lined up against Leann and Dickerson, who's playing her right now, and it's very clearly that he's playing her.
• 39:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: His mobility is lacking, he's got some kind of legage
• 39:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: But he's lacking mobility, he's lacking strength, he's lacking leverage, he's lacking the need as a guard to play at the high level at the NFL level.
• 39:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: So to me, John Franklin Myers in the way that he uses his hands, I think Zach Allen with the explosive penetration he's able to get.
• 39:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: Target him specifically in the running game and get underneath his pad level because he's been absolutely atrocious as a run blocker specifically.
• 39:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: In fast protection he has an terrible but as a run blocker.
• 39:58
  [SPEAKER_03]: He's been the worst pass protecting guard in the NFL.
• 40:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: Really, okay.
• 40:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I didn't know that.
• 40:02
  [SPEAKER_03]: I guard in the NFL that is overdo is and I believe the only one in double digit sex.
• 40:07
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'd have to double check on that.
• 40:08
  [SPEAKER_01]: Really, okay.
• 40:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I didn't I didn't know that.
• 40:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like I do even that.
• 40:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: I didn't realize it was that bad.
• 40:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like
• 40:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: regardless, land and Dickerson is a player you target right now and Cam Jordan's.
• 40:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: So this week, Eric, I know you tweeted out this week.
• 40:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: The Broncos are eligible to get Malcolm Roach off of IR.
• 40:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: Probably not going to play this week, but if he does.
• 40:27
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, he's not going to be activated if he was.
• 40:28
  [SPEAKER_03]: He would have been activated today.
• 40:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so I missed all that regardless, let's go to DJ Jones here because DJ Jones playing against the run has been absolutely phenomenal this season.
• 40:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: He has been incredible.
• 40:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's doing a great job separating off of blocks.
• 40:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's getting into the backfield.
• 40:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's doing a great job as a past rusher.
• 40:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: DJ Jones versus Cam Durgens.
• 40:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: Let's go.
• 40:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: Because Cam Durgens is a good football player.
• 40:50
  [SPEAKER_01]: He plays with leverage.
• 40:51
  [SPEAKER_01]: He does a good job moving.
• 40:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want to see DJ Jones go head to head against Cameron's and see what he can do in the running game specifically tying off of how the struggles of land and Dickerson have been because if there's one thing that you can say about Cameron's yeah he's a good run blocker but he's taking more losses because of land and Dickerson's inability to just play in a high level because he's been so hurt so if you it's almost like
• 41:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: Eric, you and I talked about it privately in the group chat, Quinn Miners and Luke Wattenberg.
• 41:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: How a Quinn Miner should just hate Luke Wattenberg.
• 41:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: For how bad he has been, Cam Jurgen's needs to hate Lan and Dickerson for how bad he has been, especially in the right game.
• 41:34
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'd say he's actually been worse in past production than he has the run game.
• 41:38
  [SPEAKER_03]: So I was mistaken.
• 41:40
  [SPEAKER_03]: There are two players that have given up more pressures than land in Dickerson.
• 41:43
  [SPEAKER_03]: There are at 14 land Dickerson's at 13 pressures given up, but he leads all guards in sex given up with three and he has the lowest pass blocking efficiency among all guards in the NFL.
• 41:54
  [SPEAKER_03]: He has been.
• 41:55
  [SPEAKER_03]: awful.
• 41:55
  [SPEAKER_03]: He's barely over 90.
• 41:57
  [SPEAKER_03]: And I believe his run block error is past block win rate is at is bottom two.
• 42:01
  [SPEAKER_03]: And he might be the worst.
• 42:03
  [SPEAKER_03]: I can't remember exactly.
• 42:04
  [SPEAKER_03]: And his run block run block win rate is I believe bottom 10, but just barely in the bottom 10.
• 42:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: He's been bad.
• 42:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: And Tyler scene hasn't been a whole lot better.
• 42:13
  [SPEAKER_03]: Right.
• 42:14
  [SPEAKER_03]: And so there's such an advantage there.
• 42:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: But the issue is is when again, touch push, that's where they've been successful.
• 42:22
  [SPEAKER_03]: Uh, because line and digger's in all it is is you got to line up and you line up off sides because your head is in the or you line up in the new just on because your head is in the way the ball and the center is over the ball, which means it's off side.
• 42:34
  [SPEAKER_03]: There's rules here.
• 42:36
  [SPEAKER_03]: And that just aren't called because it's annoying and the NFL is not always consistent and.
• 42:45
  [SPEAKER_03]: So when they do that, it's, they're just going forward.
• 42:47
  [SPEAKER_03]: They're taking out the legs of collapsing it for Jalen hurts to go up or go over the top or they're going and they're driving up to for Jalen hurts to go underneath.
• 42:55
  [SPEAKER_03]: And then depends.
• 42:57
  [SPEAKER_03]: And what's added more is that the Eagles have added a wrinkle with their touch push with the fake off of it.
• 43:03
  [SPEAKER_03]: So I get just adds to the ability to get off to stay out of that.
• 43:08
  [SPEAKER_03]: But Denver, they have a lot of good matchups.
• 43:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: DJ Jones should be able to be in line for a good game.
• 43:14
  [SPEAKER_03]: If Denver can keep this offense and check with keeping them behind schedule, I think Denver chances of winning this actually go up.
• 43:22
  [SPEAKER_03]: Even though the Eagles' offense hasn't been good, they've been very opportunistic.
• 43:25
  [SPEAKER_03]: They have made those key plays when needed.
• 43:28
  [SPEAKER_03]: They may not have be the most consistent
• 43:31
  [SPEAKER_03]: But again, you can overcome consistency by just making the plays when needed.
• 43:35
  [SPEAKER_03]: And that's what this Eagles team has done.
• 43:36
  [SPEAKER_03]: That's why they are four or no.
• 43:38
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
• 43:39
  [SPEAKER_03]: And just this defense, this Broncos defense, they had a great game against the Bengals, but you cannot.
• 43:50
  [SPEAKER_03]: have the Oak Creek openings for the Eagles like you did with the Bengals that the Bengals weren't able to exploit and find success.
• 43:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: There are a lot of openings that that because the Office of Line Issues and Jake Browning Issues that the Bengals cannot exploit cannot do that against the Eagles.
• 44:08
  [SPEAKER_03]: There is basically no margin of error for the Broncos that they want to pull out the upset.
• 44:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
• 44:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: But that's the big thing.
• 44:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: I was going to write an article about this at milehighheavo.com earlier this week.
• 44:20
  [SPEAKER_01]: Talking about just the timely playmaking of the week, that the Broncos just seemingly don't have.
• 44:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: And that's one of the biggest things.
• 44:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: The Broncos consistently shoot themselves in the foot, whereas the Eagles are finding
• 44:34
  [SPEAKER_01]: The biggest playmakers to make the biggest plays at the right time.
• 44:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Whether it is the block field goal, return for a touchdown, Jordan Davis, you have the block plan, return for a touchdown, city brown, it was a brown that had the intersection return to.
• 44:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: I swear they had an intersection, regardless.
• 44:51
  [SPEAKER_03]: They've had three, they've had three blocked kicks.
• 44:54
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, three, three, three, three.
• 44:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
• 45:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: them to be made.
• 45:09
  [SPEAKER_01]: And this Bronco's team can't get out of their own way.
• 45:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: That to me is the biggest separating factor in this game.
• 45:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: Tell you the truth is the Eagles, they won 20 out of their last 21 games and all four of these games this season have been on one score or less.
• 45:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: Like barely winning these football games.
• 45:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: They won that game against the Rams on the Blockfield goal for a touchdown.
• 45:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: When the Rams were going to kick the game winning field,
• 45:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: They find ways to make plays.
• 45:38
  [SPEAKER_01]: Denver and these key opportunities go against the Indianapolis Coast.
• 45:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: They need to they need to drive a form in a drive to go and kick a field goal.
• 45:47
  [SPEAKER_01]: Will let's don't see up right.
• 45:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: The energy on the take some back down scores to touch down, then they get to get the ball back because Bonax can't do anything with the offense.
• 45:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: They go three and out, game winning field goal and you get the leverage penalty against the charters.
• 46:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: Same same exact thing.
• 46:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: You've got to 8.0 lead in that game.
• 46:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: go three and out.
• 46:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: Then you get the crazy touchdown pass from Justin Herbert to Keenan Allen go three and out again.
• 46:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: the charters come back and they take a game winning field goal.
• 46:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: So you're not getting it on offense.
• 46:17
  [SPEAKER_01]: You're going three and out in critical situations, but you're also not getting the stop on defense right now.
• 46:22
  [SPEAKER_01]: And that to me is the biggest problem is you can't make the key plays when you absolutely need them to.
• 46:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: And the Eagles are because there are championship level full ball team.
• 46:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're experienced in winning.
• 46:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: They know how to close out games.
• 46:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: And that to me is 100% the biggest factor.
• 46:36
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
• 46:38
  [SPEAKER_03]: Now before we get into our bold predictions, one
• 46:41
  [SPEAKER_03]: Denver has not won in Philadelphia since before.
• 46:44
  [SPEAKER_03]: Well, you and I have been alive.
• 46:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
• 46:47
  [SPEAKER_03]: They have not won in Philadelphia since 1986.
• 46:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: Which was a blowout win by the way.
• 46:53
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was like 33 to 7 or something like that.
• 46:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: I can't remember the exact score.
• 46:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: But also, let's talk about the limited opportunities to winning in Philadelphia because they only go to Philadelphia once every what eight years with the way the rotating schedule is.
• 47:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: I believe that their record against
• 47:11
  [SPEAKER_01]: for something like that.
• 47:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: And again, yeah, they have one in Philadelphia.
• 47:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: The last time they played in Philadelphia was a 55 to 17 or whatever it was, blow out win and the Carson went's 2016, 18, whatever year it was, that the Eagles won the Super Rule.
• 47:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: That was the last time they played in Philadelphia.
• 47:29
  [SPEAKER_01]: So they don't get the opportunity to do it very often.
• 47:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: But there's a lot of different factors here with why the Broncos struggle in Philadelphia, 90% of those games, if I remember correctly, are 11 o'clock kickoffs.
• 47:43
  [SPEAKER_01]: for the Broncos in Denver.
• 47:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: They would play that game at 11 o'clock and see early window.
• 47:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: So we're not getting quality opportunities to play the Philadelphia Eagles in Lincoln Financial Stadium or whatever stadium they had before.
• 47:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: So I understand the idea behind that, but I also don't necessarily take a whole lot of credence into that.
• 48:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: And to this particular matchup, I get those factors are always concerned,
• 48:14
  [SPEAKER_01]: You played nine times in Philadelphia in the era of entire existence.
• 48:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: Let's not make it like that's a big time factor.
• 48:25
  [SPEAKER_03]: It is a factor though.
• 48:27
  [SPEAKER_03]: And it's not just playing in Philadelphia.
• 48:29
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's playing on the East Coast.
• 48:31
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's the bigger.
• 48:31
  [SPEAKER_03]: Denver is historically bad playing on the East Coast.
• 48:34
  [SPEAKER_03]: In the early times, it's playing on the East Coast.
• 48:37
  [SPEAKER_03]: And when you have one win in Philadelphia in your history,
• 48:43
  [SPEAKER_03]: It matters, even though you've only played Philadelphia 14 times, if you are one and eight or one and seven or whatever it is in Philadelphia, it matters.
• 48:54
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's not something to be thrown away, just because you don't like the step, just because they haven't played that much.
• 48:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: And I'm not saying that's what you're saying, just because it's not saying that's what you're doing.
• 49:04
  [SPEAKER_03]: It is just one of those things that it is one of those variables that go into winning an NFL game that you have to account for.
• 49:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: Denver does not do well in early games on the East Coast and they have not done well in Philadelphia.
• 49:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: They are nine and five against Philadelphia in general and four of those five loss four of those five wins have come in Denver.
• 49:24
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, they don't play them a whole lot because if you think about it, there's that there's that cycle where every four years you're playing that division or you're playing that, yeah, you're playing the opposing division in the opposing conference.
• 49:35
  [SPEAKER_03]: You're only playing them at most basically twice in a decade.
• 49:38
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's not going to be a
• 49:40
  [SPEAKER_03]: But Denver has had so many issues here.
• 49:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's an early morning game, and then playing in Philadelphia.
• 49:46
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, the fact that they have it, they've only one month at Philadelphia.
• 49:49
  [SPEAKER_03]: It was in 1986, 337 as you, you were right on that.
• 49:53
  [SPEAKER_03]: It matters.
• 49:53
  [SPEAKER_03]: It is a factor into this game.
• 49:55
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
• 49:56
  [SPEAKER_03]: Now, all predictions quickly, because we only have about 10 minutes here.
• 50:00
  [SPEAKER_03]: And we also got to get into our scores.
• 50:03
  [SPEAKER_03]: What is your bold prediction for the Broncos offense against his defense real quick before get to this also last week.
• 50:09
  [SPEAKER_03]: I find it funny that I gave you I made a joke about another 100 guard rusher And then actually gets 100 guard rusher.
• 50:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: I found that funny when as soon as I saw that happen.
• 50:19
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, Oh, man.
• 50:21
  [SPEAKER_03]: That's kind of funny.
• 50:21
  [SPEAKER_03]: And I meant to say something in our chat.
• 50:23
  [SPEAKER_01]: All right, well, I'm going to go right back to the well here.
• 50:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: No, I'm not.
• 50:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: I'm really not.
• 50:27
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that Pone Nix is going to have some success throwing the football, but it's not going to be for much.
• 50:32
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's not, that's the best way to say this.
• 50:35
  [SPEAKER_01]: He's going to be efficient and effective throwing the football, but it's not going to result in a lot of points.
• 50:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that VickDangiel playing the cloud cover city does the match quarters coverage.
• 50:44
  [SPEAKER_01]: Botanix does a lot better playing in systems that allow him easy access throws, especially in the quick game, where he's going to be able to have some success against this defense.
• 50:56
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that he's going to throw for at least 250 yards, but not throw a touchdown pass.
• 51:03
  [SPEAKER_03]: My bold prediction for this is that the Broncos get over 200 yards rushing.
• 51:10
  [SPEAKER_03]: Not necessarily 100 yard rusher, team total over 200 yards.
• 51:15
  [SPEAKER_03]: It'll be hard to do that without 100 yard rusher.
• 51:18
  [SPEAKER_03]: But it's possible.
• 51:19
  [SPEAKER_01]: Can I ask you a question on this?
• 51:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: I want to go back to what we saw against the bangles last week, where JK Dobbins had 16 carries for 101 yards.
• 51:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: RJ Harvey had 15 carries, I believe, for 58 or something like that.
• 51:33
  [SPEAKER_01]: What do you think the running back carries what is going to look like this week?
• 51:38
  [SPEAKER_03]: I think it should be much of the same.
• 51:41
  [SPEAKER_01]: Me too.
• 51:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think it should be even more closer to 20 for Dobbins in 15 16 for for our day already because I think you need to focus on the run that much.
• 51:49
  [SPEAKER_03]: I think you need to keep the ball out of the air and keep the ball out of Bonnex.
• 51:53
  [SPEAKER_03]: And not nothing against Bonnex.
• 51:55
  [SPEAKER_03]: It deals with giving credit to Vic Vangio in this passing defense and playing in Philadelphia with it gets a very opportunistic Denver.
• 52:04
  [SPEAKER_03]: So again, if it's 20 and 15 or if it's 25 and 20, whatever
• 52:09
  [SPEAKER_03]: they need to use the running backs a lot.
• 52:12
  [SPEAKER_03]: Um, and my color and killer saying don't like NFL game early NFL games.
• 52:16
  [SPEAKER_03]: I don't either.
• 52:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: It's nine o'clock in the morning for me for this game.
• 52:20
  [SPEAKER_03]: And then it's even worse the following week when I have to be up at seven o'clock in the morning for it on its Sunday.
• 52:26
  [SPEAKER_03]: Now, so 200 yards rushing for the broadcast offense yours is a big but game from
• 52:39
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think that this is the game where you can really start to force the issue and I was talking about it with pressure rate.
• 52:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the Broncos haven't created a whole lot of turnover, surely.
• 52:49
  [SPEAKER_01]: But Jalen Hurst doesn't do well throwing into tight man coverage and with the amount of pressure that I think that this Broncos team can create, they're gonna create two turnovers.
• 53:00
  [SPEAKER_01]: And I think they're gonna come
• 53:01
  [SPEAKER_01]: via jail and hers is armed.
• 53:02
  [SPEAKER_01]: I think you're going to get two interceptions.
• 53:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: One from Pastor Tan, one from Riley Moss.
• 53:07
  [SPEAKER_01]: I got a shout out my boy, Riley Moss, who Eric, I know you talked about him.
• 53:10
  [SPEAKER_01]: You got an article about him earlier.
• 53:12
  [SPEAKER_01]: He is playing at an incredibly high level.
• 53:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he's getting targeted a lot.
• 53:16
  [SPEAKER_01]: It's the second highest or I think first highest target going back to the NFL right now.
• 53:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: But he also leads the NFL in forcing completions.
• 53:24
  [SPEAKER_01]: There's issues with this play for sure, but with him playing tight covers the way that he's been playing, you're going to force a quarterback like jail and hers who can make some questionable decisions with the football at times force a bunch of pressure up front.
• 53:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: You get in two two interceptions against jail and hers this week.
• 53:41
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, now my bull prediction for the defense is.
• 53:46
  [SPEAKER_03]: I can't remember what I wrote my article.
• 53:48
  [SPEAKER_03]: So either today tonight or tomorrow, my key matchups will come out for that Broncos offense gets the Philadelphia Eagles defense and then it gets the Philadelphia Eagles against the Broncos defense and then both predictions.
• 53:59
  [SPEAKER_03]: I can't remember what mine were.
• 54:02
  [SPEAKER_03]: I think that the Broncos hold, say quambarkly, under 3.3 yards per carry.
• 54:11
  [SPEAKER_03]: He may have a good game receiving.
• 54:14
  [SPEAKER_03]: So I'm not doing total scrimming yards.
• 54:15
  [SPEAKER_03]: I'm not doing peer rushing yards.
• 54:18
  [SPEAKER_03]: 3.3 yards per carry.
• 54:19
  [SPEAKER_03]: He's only averaging 3.1 right now.
• 54:21
  [SPEAKER_03]: The Bronco's defense has had some consistency issues, especially against better running backs, John of the Dayler.
• 54:27
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
• 54:27
  [SPEAKER_03]: So under 3.3 rushing yards per carry from Sequoan Barclay this one.
• 54:31
  [SPEAKER_03]: Now that's before we get out here, score prediction.
• 54:37
  [SPEAKER_01]: Unfortunately, even though I have Vonex having a 250 yard passing game, like I said, I don't need to get swollen to the end zone.
• 54:42
  [SPEAKER_01]: If he does, it's only once.
• 54:46
  [SPEAKER_01]: I have the Eagles sneak in this one out and it's probably because of the late game breakdown offensively allowing the the Eagles a short field where they can kind of grind the clock down can kind of focus on that running game I've 20 to 16 Eagles over the Broncos and a heartbreaker because I think that the the Broncos are going to have a late game lead again guys the Broncos have played 155 snaps this year with a lead.
• 55:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: and they have not trailed in the fourth quarter at all in any of their four games.
• 55:18
  [SPEAKER_01]: The only time the two losses they have came on game winning, expiring clock field goals.
• 55:25
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're going to be in this game.
• 55:26
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're going to play well defensively, but they're going to have a bad offensive turn over, whether it's a fun or a bonus interception, and the users are going to take advantage of it, and they're going to go down and have a late game touchdown to seal the victory.
• 55:42
  [SPEAKER_03]: And I have a similar situation playing out, except I have Denver driving into field goal range and will let's either missing it or it getting blocked.
• 55:52
  [SPEAKER_01]: This team is playing so well on special teams up front.
• 55:57
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're doing a great job identifying mismatches.
• 55:59
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're overloading one side of it.
• 56:01
  [SPEAKER_03]: That's absolutely able to six foot six giant and Jordan Davis.
• 56:04
  [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's blocking it.
• 56:05
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's true.
• 56:06
  [SPEAKER_01]: That punk though, I watched the pump block back the other day
• 56:13
  [SPEAKER_01]: five or six, I think it was five.
• 56:15
  [SPEAKER_01]: They ran five guys on one side of the line of scrimmage and the personal protector was on the opposite side.
• 56:21
  [SPEAKER_01]: So they had four blockers on five guys and the fifth guy came untouched and got the pump block like it.
• 56:28
  [SPEAKER_01]: It was, it's beautiful scheme up.
• 56:30
  [SPEAKER_01]: This special team's coordinator, I don't know his name and Philadelphia, he's doing a great job of scheming things up with his pump block and field goal block teams right now
• 56:40
  [SPEAKER_01]: They're a busy, he's not doing a great job defense with with with that aspect right now.
• 56:45
  [SPEAKER_01]: I do the Bronco special team is taking a big step back.
• 56:48
  [SPEAKER_01]: That's the separator.
• 56:50
  [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and it would be nice to win this game because Denver could end up being, if they can win this and you know, you have New York, the jets, the giants, the cowboys, the Texans and the Raiders.
• 57:01
  [SPEAKER_03]: So if the Broncos can beat this, beat the Eagles and go up to three and three, we can be looking them or three and two, we can be looking at them being white.
• 57:10
  [SPEAKER_03]: uh seven and two eight and two going into week 11 against the Kansas City Chiefs prior to their by week.
• 57:17
  [SPEAKER_03]: And if they can be six and two at that point, it really puts them in a good position for obviously the division depending on what happens with the charges with one game still against that.
• 57:26
  [SPEAKER_03]: And
• 57:27
  [SPEAKER_03]: still having three gate four games against the conference opponents count going into week 11.
• 57:33
  [SPEAKER_03]: It can put them in a really good position for the division and a really good position for the wild card spot because when you look at some of the other teams fighting for wild card spots, the Jaguars, the Colts, one of them wanted the division, one of them playing for the wild cards spot, the Steelers, they seem to be possibly in it, the Patriots, a lot of these teams are now getting to where their schedule is a little bit tougher for them.
• 57:54
  [SPEAKER_03]: So a win would be great, a win would install them with a lot of confidence I can carry over with for multiple games especially with in games against opponents that they should be, but that's going to have to do it before us before we get out here we do have some final words.
