  Speaker 1: Kanta and Hey sus Aka super Nova. Gentlemen, what is
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: going on this Sunday evening wherever you may be.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: I've spent all day long grinding away at a lovely
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: and wonderful legal thesis paper for my education program, so
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: my brain is currently mush, But as far as my
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: Sunday is concerned, I'm ready to see what we can
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: rowl up here in the sports world today with any
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: of our listeners.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: I don't know what most of you are going to
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: be watching this on a video form because both Talent
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: and Askata I can't see my camera, but it's it's
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: still hot where I'm at, because screw the sunscrew the summer,
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: because not only are you alone all the time, not
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: only are you not with your friends, you get like
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: the weird feeling of not being part of something greater
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: until like we've made up today and otherwise other than
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: watching summer Slam. At the time of this recording, it's
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: just been mad for me, you know, nothing really too
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: exciting to just happy to be here and actually happy
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: to do content for you know, this episode, which I'm
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: also doing with a site. Note, we're only three weeks
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: away from the high school football season, and I'm so
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: ready for it.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, we're three weeks away from that, Hayes sues,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: we are ready for everything football related. The best time
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: of year is back, and ladies and gentlemen, I think
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: it's safe to say this was the last Sunday without
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: football for the rest of the year.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Thank god, dear God.
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: It's so beautiful. It's so beautiful.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: Depends on who you ask. Honestly, there are some franchises
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: that do have up and then you have others where
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: it's like.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Why, I mean, I don't even think they care, even
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: though they know their teams are gonna be horrible this year.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Cough cough, Jet fans, Jets are gonna jet. There's a
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: reason that their uh tagline is just and the season.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: But that already, yes, you take it. Cannot tell, but
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: both talent and this skata can see me smiling at
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: the camera.
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: My god, I love it.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: But guys, we have been having a great time just
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: in the opening of episode two, and we want to
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: thank everybody who listened to our first episode ever of
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Ruffling the Feathers. We posted it last week. We got
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: a couple of views, so thank you to those viewers
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: very much for your support. We are uploading these video
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: these podcasts every chance that we get, and honestly, outside
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: of that, I know we spoke about it in the
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: pre show, gentlemen, but last week, I know some of
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: the viewers may have seen a little bit of an
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: issue with maybe some audio cutting out. I think it's
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: safe to say that we may or may not have
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: had some Internet issues.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: No, oh god, it's so many Internet issues.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Well, why don't you let them tell? Why don't you
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: tell the viewers, Brandon, what happened with the internet?
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: So I live out in the lovely parts of eastern
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: North Carolina where I basically just live in the woods
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: and our lovely spectrum provider. It's not so great out here.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: It's better than the satellite Internet that I was using.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: I'll never use via set again. But you know, no,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: it was just it was just a bad day for internet.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Everything looks good today, you know, had a technician to
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: come out and we should be good to go today.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I have to say, you know, we had some
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: tech issues, you know, with it for the most part,
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: and that might derail like our scheduling conflicts. But like
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: in an ideal world, our best case scenario, it's not
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: a promise because you know, obviously life can change at
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: an instant. But hopefully we could get episodes like within
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: a weekly basis. But I know first fact that I
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: am not going to guarantee that because life's just cruel
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: and uh, that's just how it is.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and Brandon, you brought up with Spectrum.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: By the way, Spectrum, if you want to sponsor us,
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: get your internet working.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Or better, Yeah, take away some of the salary of
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: from Spectrum supports that because apparently everyone's matched the Dodges again.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Well that's to be expected. I mean, they got to
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: read schoolball for pending's on the dollar.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: They also just got another season sweep by the Boston
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Red Sox. You know you have that too, that is true.
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: But I mean, Brandon, you brought up Spectrum.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: I've got a fun story about Spectrum as well myself.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: So in my house, we had the Spectrum router, and
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: we have a Spectrum motive because in my subdivision, we
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: have a contract that means we must have Spectrum for
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: home TV and Internet. But we get like one of
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: the best deals out there, and we get like Netflix
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: and Peacock and all these streaming services with ads of course,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: because you got to have your advertisements. But we were
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: having some issues where, especially in Discord for me, I
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: would be in Discord calls and Supernova can attest to
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: what I'm about to say. There were times when I'm
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: talking with him and it just cuts out. It just dropped,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: like briefly. You could see the ping would go from
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: like forty to over a thousand. So I'm thinking, Okay,
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: what's going on with my Internet? So I take a
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: drive over to best Buy because everybody in America loves
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: best Buy.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's great tech service. It's a great tech
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: company or.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Tech business to get your technological supplies. But I went
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: there and I told them, yes, we have a spectrum router.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: We have a Spectrum motem, and we had the Eero
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Pro seven mess system, which are routers in our own right.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: So the best Buy Tech said, take that Spectrum router
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: and throw it out the back, just throw it out,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: bury it, smash it with a sledgehammer, and then go
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: bury it in the habit. So I did that. I
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: didn't do the burying in the habit, but I did
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: take out the Spectrum router. And so far, so good
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: on the connection issues. I haven't had many issues with
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Discord vcs. But my download speed went from nine hundred
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: and eighty four megabits per second with the Eero router
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: connected to the Spectrum router which is connected to the modem,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: to a download speed of one point two gigabits per second.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: That's a little bit of an improvement. Yeah, just a
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: little bit, a little bit.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: But but it's still good because apparently spectrum routers are horrible.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: So I don't know much about that. I'm not a
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: tech person. All I know is I listen to the
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: people who have technological experience. And the next thing I
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: have to figure out is why can't my parents' laptop
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: connect to the Internet despite every other device in our
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: house connecting to the Internet, which is weird. It shows
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: it's connected to the Internet, but it can't connect to
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: certain websites on the Internet.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: Oh, it sounds like they think you're being suspicious in
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: the internet, now, don't you.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean they're Cowboys fans.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: So they're all, oh, maybe a little delusional too, but.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: You know, I mean, I still have a story about
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: that with my parents.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: It was the Lions cow Boys game, I think, if
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I remember correctly, was two thousand and twelve, was that
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: playoff game. And I'm sitting there getting ready for the game,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: and my dad comes out of his room at the time,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: and I remember this vividly. He had a des Bryant's shirt.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: He had a pair of sunglasses, which, again I mean
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: wearing sunglasses inside. We can debate that until the cows
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: come home. I don't care if you wear sunglasses inside,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: but some people.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: Do care about that.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: But the other two things he had on was a
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: padlock and chain, So he was basically like John Cena,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: the Doctor of Thuganomics era with the padlock and the chain.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: All he was listening was a pair of Jordan's to
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: pump up and he had a Bob Marley cap on.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: What.
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: I ran out of my house that day and I
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: did not watch the game in in my house. I
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: went over to my grandparents house. I watched the game
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: there I watched as the referees picked up a defensive
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: pass interference flag on the Cowboys that they committed on
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: the Lions. I remember that. And then the very next
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: week that was the Des Bryant des caught It game.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Oh wait wait was that twenty fourteen? Yeah?
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: I say twenty fifteen is the year. Yeah, twenty fifteen.
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: Okay, now see now that is true right there.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Energy In all fairness, I will say this, Des did
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: catch it, and the reason why Des caught it, in
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: my opinion, is because of that referee. And I did
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: my thesis paper for my master's degree at Georgetown University
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: on NFL officiating. That referee, the sideline ref he called
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Des down at the one. He did not signal touchdown.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: He signaled him down at the one. So by that logic,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Des was down with possession when he's knee hit the ground.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: It had nothing to do with the ball jarring out.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: He was down by contact, had control of the ball.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: But that was the catch rule. We love Calvin Johnson
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: for that.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: I also want to bring out of the earthing as well.
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: This is also affected I'm gonna ruffle Steelers has for
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: this one. Jesse James twenty seventeen regular season against the Patriots.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: You guys know, not to serve for answer that one.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: You all deserve to lose that game.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know what you're talking about.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: I don't know what you're talking about either.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: It was it was a week fifteen I think it
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: was a week fifteer sixteen between the Patriots and the
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: Steelers at Heinz Field. Jesse James apparently caught a touchdown
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: to put the Steels ahead of the Patriots, and then
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: they got called back and Steeers fans were salty.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: Oh wait, was that that was? That was the one
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: that was like The next play was a like a like, yeah,
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: a lob pass interception in the end zone.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a That was December of twenty seenteen.
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know it's the seventeen and eighteen season. I
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: know it was that season. It's Jesse James, O.
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: But that's that's a great that's a great way, guys.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: But let's start talking about everybody's favorite thing. Because again
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: we did say it, the NFL is back. We don't
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: have to worry about begging for the NFL to come back.
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: We don't have to sit in.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: The corner, hold our footballs and cry softly to sleep
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: at night, just waiting for the football to come back,
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: just waiting for the football to come back, Just waiting
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: for the football to come back.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: We have it back.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: And honestly, we're only a week in a training camp
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: and there are some pretty good impressions to be made
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: right now with the NFL training camp.
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: Uh, Brandon, I'm gonna start with you.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: What is your first impression of camp for the Patriots
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: and any other teams that you've been following.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: So, Patriots camp's pretty much progressed like I've expected it
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: to the in really, the only highlight of the camp
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: that people are really focusing on is the chemistry between
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Drake May and A. J. Brown, which, from what everything
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: that I have read on you know, all the commentary
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: analysty things like that, is nothing short of what is
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: expected to be of like AJ Brown showing that he
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: is a true, you know, wr one for the team.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: Outside of that, I've really been personally paying a lot
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: of attention to Mendoza for the Raiders and apparently he
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: has been commanding of that offense they've got. I think
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: they've got Kirk Cousins pretty much being like the understood
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: QB one right now, just I guess just because of
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Mendoza's you know, freshness into the NFL, but apparently like
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: his apparently he had a bad day. It's like yesterday
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: or today. I want to say it was. I want
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: to say it was today. But outside of that, you know,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: Mendoza has been judging from the however you want to
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: weigh it, into the Raiders training camp, he's looked a
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: little bit better than what I expected him to.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can't get much better than that with
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: the Patriots. And I mean I am curious about that
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: drink made to aj Brown because how are the Patriots
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: going to come back from being absolutely eviscerated in the
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl by the Seattle Seahawks. They were eviscerated so
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: bad the MVP left the champions to go and play
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: with Patrick Mahomes.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: To be fair, they just didn't want to pay the man,
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: like if they had just paid Kenneth Walker. But he's
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: worth then is that man? That man fucking ran all
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: over us. We might as well have just taken a
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: semi truckle let him drive through it through the holes
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: in our line.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: Look, that's going to counterpoint you right now, they were
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: perfectly finding sack sarbonnay, like if he didn't tear his
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: anchor acl or whatever that injury was, if I remember correctly, Oh.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, No, it was a really bad matchup for
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: us either way. Contrary to what everybody says, we absolutely
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: deserve to be in that Super Bowl. And you know,
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: shut you can't, you can't. I don't have a camera
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: that I concern around a point at but just know
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: that for any Patriot haters out there and sticking up
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: my middle finger at you, we absolutely.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: The people were any Broncos fans, I still wanted to
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: believe in bon Knicks, man, I have my father who's
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: the Broncos doesn't even after he watched him, and he
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: was like, I was a little disappointed. The game will
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: suck the way it did.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Well, Like even if bo Nicks had played the AFCC,
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: we still would have won that game because at the
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: same time, like we outplayed them on every level. The
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: only reason Jared Stidham did as well as he did
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: against those that's because he's familiar with the Patriot system
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: because he was a Patriot himself. And there's not been
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: much of a change in between the old regime versus
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: the news. So it's really not that much of a difference.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: We still have a white guy at QB that does
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: pretty much the same thing as Brady does, except he's,
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: you know, a little bit more mobile. I mean, there's
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: not much of a difference here so far. We don't
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: the sort receivers like Edelman.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: So what So what you're saying is the Patriots offense
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: is the then Oakland Raiders offense circa two thousand and
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: two entering the Super Bowl when they played against John Gruden,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: who knew everything about them, right down to the play calls.
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, sure, why not?
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: Sure what?
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: But at the same time, you know the typical argument
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: that I still hear, at least in my neck of
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: the woods Patriot sittings there to made Superowl because they
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: had one of the easiest schedules in the NFL, And
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: did you tell the round look at the Denver Broncos.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: They were just like one or two steps ahead of
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: us in terms of a schedule difficulty. So again, middle
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: finger to the camera, we would beat somebody who had
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: a technically harder schedule than us, and we still made
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, where they at ain't gonna be a
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: playoffs this year.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: But nah, that no, that's that's definitely fair.
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: And again, I mean in your division, it's basically the
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Bills and you guys right now, because the Dolphins, who
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: knows how Malik Willis is gonna be down there, and
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: the Jets, well it's the Jets.
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, uh, Nova, let's go to you.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: What are your early camp impressions, not only for your
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens, but.
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: Who else are you looking around the league? Yeah?
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: Okay, I actually do have a little bit of a
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: source play here because I happen to receiving news about
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: Ravens mini camp and there's been a lot of interesting
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: aspects here. So I'm gonna go ahead and take the
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: source from Kyle Uman's over on social media. He's the
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: voice of the Ravens. And I'll start with a couple
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: of things here. First of all, the most important thing
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: that happened in trading Kepper, the Ravens defensive tackle Nimai
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Madubike is out of the physically unable to perform with
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: so that defense only gets scarier because now with Trey
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: Hendrickson and Presumbia, a lot more better uh defense, because
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: you know, we're actually having a good defensive coach in
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: Jesse Minter and as well as better in presence than
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: kallay As Campbell. It's gonna be an interesting thing to
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: see that the you know, finally be potentially back at
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: full straight. Otherwise, Lamar Jackson was looking really good at
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: practice development as well for receivers Tess Walker and Rashad Bateman.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: I guess the one negative I can say about the
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: mini camp is that Tyler Loop still looks raw and
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: still looks like he needs time to like fully embrace
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: like the big kicker role because he's been a little
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: shaky with his kicks. Otherwise, this Ravens camp has been
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: like the one day I've been paying attention to, as
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: well as a rookie receiver Jacobe Jacoby Lane who's looking
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: really good in his route running.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's a good way to look at the
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Ravens camp, especially with how Baltimore is probably gonna be
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: an early candidate to win the AFC North right now,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: even though it is Aaron Rodgers' last ride in the
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: NFL and he's gonna be trading a yellow jacket for
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: a gold jacket, which ironically enough, he only played for
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: two or three teams now and they either wore green
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: or yellow in their coloration, and then he's gonna get gold.
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: That is actually a really funny way you put that
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: with Harry Rogers. But I don't imagine his time is
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: gonna get better with new coach time, Mike mccarfey, because
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: the look that the Steelers are still, in my opinion,
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: refusing to you know, fully embrace the rebuild because they
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: still think they could do something with Harry Rochester the quarterback.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: But if you ask me about the ASC North, it's
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: gonna be coming down to both the Ravens and the Bengals,
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: because I think those two teams are gonna be the
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: teams to look out for. Maybe the Steelers if they
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: somehow make their way to a nine to eight season
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: or an equivalent. But you know, I just think the
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: goal personally for me, for the Ravens. You know, I
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: see every other social media or like analysts say the
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: Ravens must reach the Super Bowl. Dude, baby steps First,
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: First of all, it's a rookie head coaching, Jesse Minter.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: I think the bit more important goal for the Ravens
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: make the playoffs.
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: Brandy Brandy can't be on then, right, So first.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Of all, hold on here, I got a bone to
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: pick with that one. First of all, the Bengals, why
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: the hell you gonna surround and trade off a defensive
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: player like Hendrickson to your own rival for basically a
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: bag of potato chips. You let that man walk to
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: a defense that, whenever they're fully healthy, has been historically
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: terrifying to play against. Whenever they're all healthy.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: You didn't see them in twenty twenty three, twenty four.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. Like, reference like and not only that,
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: but reference you know, to the team of destiny, you know,
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: with Ray Lewis and Ed Reed and whatnot, like Ravens.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Defense has always been historically defensive, and you turn around,
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: you're gonna give them all these key players and make
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: them healthy again. The Bengals are dumb for this. I
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: don't think it's anybody's division but Baltimore's, honestly, because if
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: Cincinnati didn't do anything to protect, you know, to help
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: protect Joe Burrow when that offensive line and man, it's
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: just gonna get smoked game after game after game again,
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: He's just gonna wind up on the on the the
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: ir list again, I hope he doesn't. I hope he doesn't,
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: though you know, you.
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: Know, never know how the NFL season goes. You know,
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: we had the Ravens favorite to win the division, like
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: well it was like the past five years, and then
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: there was like the Bengals upsurs and then whatever the
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: hell last season was, which I went a combination of
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: injury playing from John Harboss idiocy.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, such as life in the NFL with that,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: and again I feel bad, but that was how you
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: guys lost out in the playoffs last year was a
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: game winning kick going wide right on Sunday Night Football.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: It is one of the single most heartbreaking moments of
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: all time. But outside of that, noble, what is a
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: team that you have been looking at right now with
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: some early camp impressions.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: You're gonna hate me for thiss one in New Orleans Saints.
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: And why would you go to them?
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: Because it's my hot take of the NSC South. You know,
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: if we're ever gets a discussion about this one, I
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: actually think the Saints are criminally underrated because you know,
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: Tyler Shuck's developing. I mean, yes, we're gonna have to
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: be discussing about them because you know, we do have
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: some segments about them, but I do love the fact
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: that Tyler Shucking Hellimore, you know, basically had no expectations
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: last season, and they've basically met the expectation to a degree.
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: And now Tyler Shuck is smeloping. He starting to get
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: some weapons, I mean defense. You could probably say whatever
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: about it, but you know, it's the team I think
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: I'm rather interested in because like, nobody gave any credit
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: to them last year, and I think this year they
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: should at least getch some eyes.
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: And I'm gonna at least say this.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: When you were talking about that, I took a sip
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: of water and nearly wanted to spit it out with
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: that because I was choking on the water.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: Imagine that.
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it's New Orleans, man.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: The only thing that's good about New Orleans is that
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: for the last three years they hosted Pokemon tournaments, and and.
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: They're good at making seafood. They get they do good
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: seafood over there.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: And Super Bowl at least they have one.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: And now I'm doing the middle finger at the camera
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: even though I even though I have a camera, I'm
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: doing I'm not turning at all.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: For those of the other behind the scenes, I'm the
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: only one with the camera on.
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: Oh man, I.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Don't know some I'm about twenty eight to three something
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: like that.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: And again, Brandon is one of the only person who
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: can legally get away with that because he is a
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: fan of that team. In my opinion, only fans of
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: that team can get away with it.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: If you are a fan of any other team, shut up.
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: Also disclaimer because I don't I don't think the episode
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: called it because of our love my lovely spectrum internet issues.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: I have been a fan of the Patriots since Pete
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: Carroll was the head coach of New England, so this
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: is the pre Tom Brady era, So I've got a
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: lot of wiggle room here.
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: Ah, I think I think you're right on that.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Meanwhile, let's at least talk about me, And we do
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: have some segments on the Atlanta Falcons that we are
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: going to get into, but early camp impressions right now
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: for myself with Atlanta from what I've been seeing, and
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: I do want to shout out.
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: Miles Garrett.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: Of his own I believe it's on the nest if
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: I remember correctly, as his new setup because he's no
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: longer with Fox five Atlanta. Shout us to him, Shout
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: us to Kevin Knight, to the falcoholic h these guys
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: are doing camp. And also I believe it's Might Oh.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: I forget his name. It was some guy from ESPN,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: but he does wrestling coverage as well and used to
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: do like boxing or UFC coverage. But they've been doing
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: training camp notes for Atlanta every day after Falcons training camp,
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: and like most Falcons training camps, the defense seems to
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: be better than the offense. And I've seen a couple
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: of the clips. The defense definitely has one, a couple
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: of routes and a couple of plays here and there.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: But I want to shout out Zachariah branch Man, the
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: third round pick out of Georgia.
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: I will be completely honest.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: I did not watch a lot of University of Georgia
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: last year, so I did not know much about this
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: kid coming in to the NFL. I completely respect the
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: coverage of him from UGA members like Tory Mcallaney and
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: other in the Atlanta area that went to the University
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: of Georgia that followed this kid's journey. But I am
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: going out on a limb here when I say this
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: Brandon and Nova. Zachariah Branch is giving me Taylor Gabriel
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: vibes in Atlanta, and that kid was special on the
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: twenty sixteen team with the way that he bursts and
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: his north to south speed. Zachariah Branch is doing that
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: in spades. And also I saw this one diamond cut
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: that he did. He busted the training camp assistant's legs
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: and got open Michael Pannix and seven on seven had
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: a fifty yard touchdown pass to him.
• 25:51
  Speaker 4: This kid's gonna be special. Man.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: Well, y'all need something to get yourself going.
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: Eventually, christ On a cracker, you know what it is.
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: You know, we give out lanity expectations and stuff. How
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: they always disappoint us.
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And when we get into the segments, one of
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: the segments on Atlanta, I've got some choice words for
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: one member of the media. But outside of Atlanta's training camp,
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: I'm actually curious about Minnesota with the Vikings, And that
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: has nothing to do with the fact, like Novah said
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: in the intro, that we just came off of Summers
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Slam at the time of this recording. This has to
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: do with Minnesota because JJ McCarthy's a bust. Kyler Murray
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: was shipped out of Arizona. No, he's a bust. He sucks.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: He hasn't even had a full season yet. Come on,
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: calm down.
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: No, he's not good. He's not good.
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: I wasn't even good in college. Let's be so for
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: real right now.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: Honestly, And I might, I might do the here, I'd
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: mind training for print, Butter Brena sying. But no, I'm
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: actually curious about how Kyler Murray is doing. And apparently,
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: according to reports, he is distancing himself in the quarterback
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: competition with JJ McCarthy and apparently his connection with Justin
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Jefferson is already flashing. So this is something good for
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. And the way that Kevin O'Connell's offense is
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: notoriously run, I think the Vikings might be a lot
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: more potent on offense with Kyler Murray because if you
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: are trying to stop Justin Jefferson over the top, then
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: you gotta worry about Jordan Aid in the intermediate. And
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: if you focus on either one of those two, you've
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: got potential for Kyler Murray to just run with the ball.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: We saw what he could do when his offensive line
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: was all that and not a back of chips in
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: Arizona with him just running around and running around and
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: running around. But now he's got an offensive line in Minnesota.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: Minnesota has got a criminally underrated offensive line. I think
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: Minnesota has a shot at doing some big damage in
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: the NFC North this year.
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: I mean, granted, that's a problem in itself because the
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: NFC North is still as good as ever Detroit, you know,
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: they're still looking to get back into the playoffs at
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: the disappointment last season. You got the Bears and the Packers,
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: you know, at the top of their levels. And I
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: actually think there's a seconment on the Bears later today.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: And the Vikings are kind of just like the outside
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: looking in right now. And Kyler Murray, you know, many
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: people are trying to find I don't know why social
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: media is honest, like the next Sam Donald, and they
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: think that Kyler Murrays the next one. Dude, he's like
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: the most obvious candidate.
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not even going that far on it.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: Like Sam Donald bounced around teams and finally found something
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: in Seattle. It's the same thing with Baker that he
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: bounced around from team to team, and he finally found
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: a team that works for him in Tampa.
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: And again getting ahead of ourselves on that.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: You know what all those teams had in common though, right,
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: They all had the same thing in common, which is
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: why you had these journeyman qbs that get bounced around. Yeah,
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: I got this fucking chip on their shoulder. All the
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: coaches sucked.
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: That's so for real, because not every look, because not
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: every draft scouts, I can see something that everyone else does,
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: and it's like the moment you find out they're no
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: longer in the team that believes in them initially.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's definitely true. That definitely is a legitimate
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: statement there. But let's move on, gentlemen, to our next topic.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: It is training camp and much like training camp.
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: Oh man, that injury bug man.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, I I remember the saying is that the
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: only two things you can't beat in life are death
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: and taxes. I'm gonna add a third part to that
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: on the Grim Reapers to do list death taxes and
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: a players getting injured in the first week of training camp.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Mike clockhark Man, it really is like clockwork.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, just listen to some of these players that
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: are injured We've got Tua with back tightness. You still
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: got you still got Penix coming off that ACL tear.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: Now again, in videos that I've seen and listening to
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: boots on the ground players, they say that Pennix looks explosive. Now, granted,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: Penix had a swing pass for a touchdown, but I
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: look even though the.
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: Video shows a touchdown.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: They said there was a medicine ball that was to
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: simulate pressure and his foot got hit before he threw
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: the ball, so technically he was sacked, but staying staying
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: in the division with the NFC South. Brian Breeze, the
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: defensive lineman for the Saints, towards ACL. He's out for
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: the year. Nick Skurtin, the second linebacker for the Carolina Panthers.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: He tours ACL. He is out for the year. Chris Brazzell,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: the third round rookie out of Tennessee for the Carolina Panthers,
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: tours LCL.
• 31:13
  Speaker 4: He's out for the year. You have Schamar Stewart with
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: a hyper extended knee. You have c J.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: Garner Johnson would look to be an achilles injury, but
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: it was labeled as a calf strain, so fingers crossed
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: on that but a calf strain again, that could be
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: a cursor to the Achilles.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: I can attested that one because remember Kevin Durant twenty nineteen.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: Oh, good point, caf strain to the Achilles. So let's
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: just start there that I know, I listed two players,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: one in the AFC North and one in the AFC East,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: But I've got five players in the NFC South. Does
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: anybody want to win the NFC South right now?
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: Sure? Let me just go ahead and suit up. I'm
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: sure I could probably do a little bit more. For
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: legal reasons. This is a joke out.
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: It looks like the SC South Travis just never ended
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: because we got that whole Oh the Souse is Tech
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: division again, and now all of a sudden, it's like, oh,
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: are we just making this into a whole general hospital?
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: Bit?
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: I mean it feels that way.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: But at the same time, when you think about all
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: these injuries, this is only the first week of training
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: camp and all these players and again, season ending injuries
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: in training camp has to be one of the most
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: demoralizing things to ever happen to an NFL player. And again,
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't know anything about this. I've never torn an ACL,
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: I've never torn an LCL. I've hyper extended an elbow before,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: but I've never hyper extended a knee.
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: And when you saw that injury that Shamar.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: Stewart had, it did look like his leg bet and away.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: Your leg is not supposed to be so for it
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: to be just a hyper extension, that's really good for
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: the young man. But outside of that, I definitely think
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: the injury of Knick Skurtin is the biggest one on
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: that list, guys, because last year Knick Skurtin really impressed me.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: Despite being an Atlanta fan, I was looking at how
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: Carolina was playing from time to time, especially with the
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: fact that they played Atlanta twice and one of them
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: was a thirty to zhering shutout. But number eleven, Nick
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: Skirtin really impressed me off the edge. And for him
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: to have an ACL tear is absolutely brutal.
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: This is how it is because ACL taar is definitely
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: something you don't want to be seeing here. Brutalizes. You're
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: like Mike, we hear the ACL stories all the time.
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: I was at the popular Athletes. As I mentioned, Patrick
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: mahomes So in the last episode out an ACL tear
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: and you can see how it affected mechanics, and for
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: as someone as young to get an ACL tear, especially
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: when you're still in a development, that's just something you
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: don't want to see in your career because it's like
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: you have to either change your mechanics to hope. We
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: not deal with that. ACL is big, he has portly
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: as you did. But at the same time, it's just
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: like how well does the whole team you know, fall
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: like follow up after that?
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we kind of we kind of discussed it a
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: little bit last week, but I'll say it again. The Saints,
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: the Falcons, the Panthers, they all play on really crappy
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: astro turf, whereas somebody like Tampa Bay Buccaneers they play
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: on a more natural grass. I do not believe in
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: these this crap fake ass turf in any capacity, just
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: because of the amount of actual stuffing power that it
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: puts onto your you know, your feet and your ankles,
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: your legs, your knees. Whenever you go to make a
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: cut or make a pivot, you know, change up your route,
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: what have you too. It's going to stop you in
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: your tracks, but the rest of your body is gonna
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: keep going. So if you if the rest of your
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: knee keeps going, but your foots playing. I guess what's happened.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: Something's getting hyper extended or torn.
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: And that's a fair point about the turf versus the
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: grass debate. But I thought the Panthers have a natural
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: grass turf at Bank of America Stadium.
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: I think they play on a little bit more of
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: a mixture, but I think it leans more towards ah,
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: like an astro turf kind of variety. Don't quote me
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: on that exact kind, because I know that can be
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: a little bit of a branding issue, But I think
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: I think they're I think they're a little bit of
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: a mixture of natural and you know fake.
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: I just looked it up. The do use turf.
• 35:52
  Speaker 4: Okay, Oh, the Panthers do use turf. How about that?
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: Now Again, I know Atlanta does have their version of AstroTurf,
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: but I think their's is like not as problematic as
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: say whatever excuse they use in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: Where you're where you're basically just being tackled on a
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: bunch of tires, it feels like a bunch of tires
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: mixed with cree.
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: But I had some yard ball at that point.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're basically playing some yard ball. But outside of
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: those injuries, guys, and again, I don't even want to
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: bring up the two appendix one because I mean, how
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: can you really have a quarterback competition if they're both injured?
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: So that's another thing, and that doesn't even get us
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: to the best part of the injury bug, and that's
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: gonna be the forty nine ers.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: R Ricky.
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean the forty nine ers.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: You might as well take an ambulance and painted red
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: and gold, and it's still wontn't be enough to hold
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: all the forty nine ers players.
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: I keep in mind there's a special injury report for
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: this one because Kyle Shanahan ed up an underneasury report too.
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: Oh boy, I don't even know how that how you
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: can do that. But evidently, from what the reports were,
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: he was he got into the accident because he reached
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: down to grab his phone, so distract distracted driving at
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: its finest, ladies and gentlemen. Thank god, nobody was hurt
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: severe except for Shanahan. But yeah, except except for Shanahan there.
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: But it's list.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: Man, It's it's one thing after another though. But I mean,
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: nobody you brought it up with the forty nine ers
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: injury report.
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: Man, how many players are on this report right now?
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: Yes, I mean that's a great answer.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: Yes, So let's see. I'm so I'm looking at their
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: injury status report on ESPN right now, and since July
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: twenty seventh, it's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen,
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: fourteen different players have been on the injury report, whether
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: that be short term, aggravated injuries or injury reserve. Like
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: they've had fourteen different players already, like for example, Ricky
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: Pearsol you know PCL injury or PCL surgery on his
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: right knee. You've had people who've had like sore hamstrings,
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: like Christian Kirk. It's just a bunch of people just listened,
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: like Keon White apparently left practice early on Saturday with
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: a groin injury. So we all know how well that
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: that can turn out for players too.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: And that also leaves so another segment later today where
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: it's like, actually, this the whole injury plague that the
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: forty nine Ers have was suffering through, it's probably great
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: for my area because like the Rams fans are over
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: hyping themselves, you know, with all the Austins and squashes.
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: But at the same time, this whole injury bug for
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: the forty nine ers actually forced them to go into
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: free agency.
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's definitely gonna be interesting with the forty
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: nine ers this year. I mean no, no, George Kittle
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: is definitely gonna be probably their biggest loss. I mean,
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: I know Ricky Piersoll helped them out a lot last year,
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: but I mean, you have eighty five on the field,
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: it really helps out With Christian McCaffrey. Now the real question, though,
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: are you guys gonna be taking Christian McCaffrey first overall
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: in your fantasy draft if you get the number one
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: pick at all? Absolutely not, ah, man, why don't you
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: take him so that.
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: I did say no. I didn't say no. I said
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: if I think get invited into their league, which I'm
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: not even at one in a.
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: Moment, Well, I mean I'm asking Brandon on that one.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: Why don't you take him so that we Bejon doesn't
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: get picked number one and has problems all season?
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: So honestly, like if I'm over here, if I'm doing
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: whenever I do my fantasy draft, which I usually do
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: mine after the preseason, has ended shortly before the season
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: actually kicks off. That way, if some idiots want to
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: go out there and play the preseason and get themselves injured,
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: that's all them. We don't affect my fantasy team whatsoever.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: Typically in this year, most people kind of switch it
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: up between receivers and running backs. I'm always picked running
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: back first, and typically the running back that's been on
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: the top of my list is is Jamier Gibbs from
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: the Detroit Lions. He's been He's my overall number one
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: running back. If I were to if I were to
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: be able to take the first running back off the board,
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be him.
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: I mean that just showcases who you who you have
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: in the Bajon versus Jamior Gibbs debate.
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: But we will be bringing the job too.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: We will be bringing that up momentarily, guys, because that
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: was injury talk in the NFL through the first week
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: of training camp.
• 41:14
  Speaker 4: Now we get to talk about the real fun stuff. Money.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: Everybody loves money. We are gonna be getting money eventually,
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: but not this kind of money.
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: Uh, it's contract time.
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: For who.
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: Yes, it is yes for who. Yes, we are gonna
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: start with all these players. These are either players who
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: have contracts, got extensions, or are no longer with the team.
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: And we're gonna start with one of the banes of
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: my existence and all of Atlanta ladies and gentlemen.
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: Because.
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: Who's a general matcher.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: No, not mean Cunningham.
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: But it was announced a couple of days ago that
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: Number seven of the New Orleans Saints, also known as
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: Taysom Hill, is leaving the New Orleans Saints after nine years,
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: and to that, I say.
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: Goodbye. Now, okank god, he is gone.
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: The bane of existence for me as an Atlanta fan
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: whenever they played New Orleans, because let's face it, ever
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: since Drew Brees left New Orleans, the Falcon Saints rivalry,
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: despite it being the best rivalry in the NFL that
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: nobody talks about because it's not as popular as the
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: Packers or Bears, or the Eagles and Cowboys, or the
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: Ravens and Steelers or any of those, the Falcons and
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: Saints is one of the best rivalries in the NFL.
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: And ever since Matt Ryan and Drew Brees retired, that
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: rivalry has been and every time, every single freaking time
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: that number seven lined up in the backfield for New
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: Orleans you knew it was a power run to the
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: right side, and every single time it seemed like that
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: guy would not be able to be tackled. So, as
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: an Atlanta fan, I hope that he gets up first.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: Of me say this as an NFL fan. As an
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: NFL fan, I hope he gets a position elsewhere. As
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: an Atlanta fan, Bye bye.
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you where he's going.
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: He's going to Denver, even following Sean Payton.
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: With Sean Payton, that's a good thing because.
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: In all fairness, I mean, I don't care if he
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: goes to Denver. Let him go there, let him be
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: with Sean Payton. They'd choke in Denver like they'd choke
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: in New Orleans.
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: From me, I just have a funny thing to ask,
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: what if he signs with a division rival like Carolina
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: or a Tampa Bay.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: What is I hope he goes to Tampa Bay. Can
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: you imagine Baker Mayfield and Taysom Hill. I can you
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: imagine if Taysom Hill gets used like the new Tampa
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: Bay's Mike Alstott.
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: I am, I am, I am literally getting a headache
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: right now. I am getting a headache.
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: Hey, look, look, Grandon escalated this. I just asked you
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: a question.
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm getting a headache with that.
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: But we don't have to worry about Taysom Hill anymore,
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: and thank god we don't.
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: How speaking of Tampa, do you need to talk about
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: this situation?
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: That's our next topic on the contract debate Vidaveya and
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. Vitaveya literally told the Buccaneers, I want out,
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: and according to the reports, he wants to go to
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: either a West Coast team or the Raiders. Like, okay,
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: I get the West Coast vibe because he always seemed
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: like a West Coast kid, and apparently he grew up
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: in California, he went to college in Washington. I'm pretty
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: sure he's either Hawaiian or Samoan if I remember correctly,
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: because his his birth name is.
• 45:42
  Speaker 4: One of those long yes, one of the.
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: Oh the Island the island names in part with the
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: island culture. So I can see him going to a
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: West Coast team, but the Raiders like.
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: How badly you want to play with Max Crosby. I
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: don't know.
• 46:04
  Speaker 4: I don't know, because yeah, I don't know. I think
• 46:08
  Speaker 4: that honestly, if he goes to a West Coast.
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: Team, I could see the Chargers making a play for him.
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: You know my comments because you know, every everyone in
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: my area just doesn't like the Chargers because like the
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: never we're supposed to be here. You know, there's always
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: a debate why did they go to Los Angeles? Why
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: did they San Diego? I know, just insulty people like
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: amongst those groups. But Vitavea to the Chargers. I don't
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: know if this is a defensive issues because I think
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: the bigger defensive loss isn't exactly a player. It was
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: Jesse Minter.
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, sometimes the defensive coordinator is the issue,
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: but not the reason that I say Vida Veya in
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: the powder blue of the Chargers is if I'm not mistaken,
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: he's from the LA area, right, Uh from California.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's from California.
• 47:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he. I think he's either from the
• 47:02
  Speaker 4: southern A.
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: I don't think he was like up by the Sacramento
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: San Francisco area, but.
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: I don't think I don't think the forty nine Ers
• 47:11
  Speaker 4: can make a play for Vita Vea. And if the
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: Rams try to make a.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: Play for him, well yeah, I think Aaron Donald will
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: be coming out of retirement.
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: Actually, just to look this up, he's in fees from
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: mil Pizzas, which is nearby San Jose.
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, so yeah, Chargers in play, but moving on to
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: his teammate right now until such time that, uh, either
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: he gets a contract or he gets out. I mean,
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: Baker came out and he actively lambasted the Buccaneers front office.
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: He lambasted the Glazer family and the team, saying he
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: felt disrespected on his off which I guess was a
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: two year deal in reports of a little over fifty
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: million per year on average. And look, I will admit
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: Baker has done well in Tampa. It feels like when
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: you know it's a team and it's a match for
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: a player, it's just perfect and Baker fits Tampa Bay.
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: I will say that candidly. That said, Baker Mayfield is
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: not a fifty million.
• 48:33
  Speaker 4: Dollar a year quarterback. If you gave him forty.
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: Eight and a half to forty nine over four to
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: five years, and that's being generous, I think that's fair
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: market value for Baker. He is not a fifty million
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: dollar a year quarterback. In my opinion, I don't.
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: Think his issue was the the money. Well, let me
• 49:00
  Speaker 2: rephrase that. His definitely part of the issue was the money,
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: because there was a lot of that fifty million over
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: of you know, you know over a two year period,
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: you know, fifty million year one, fifty million year two.
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: That was pretty much contingent on Tampa Bay wanting him
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: to steal the moon. That was the that was that
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: was the money. That's where the money was. As they
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: wanted him to steal the moon for the team. But he,
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: like you said, like you know, the team fits him.
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: He wants in Tampa Bay for longer than two years.
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: He's shown that he can improve the team. He's, honest
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: to God, probably the best fit for the team since
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: you know, Brady decided to go run, make her run
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: the Tampa Bay and be like, ah, I look at me, bitches,
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: I can gound win the Super Bowl somewhere else. And
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: like the man. I loved watching that man play at Oklahoma.
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: He is. That man is an absolute dog. I'd love
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: to see Tampa Bay pay him, but I definitely think
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: he is worth more guaranteed money than what Tampa Bay
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: was offering him.
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: I do agree because looking at a two year, fifty
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: million dollars a year contract, I mean it's enticing. But
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: if Baker values, you know, longevity, wants to stay in
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: Tampa Bay despite you know, the issues where everyone and
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: their mother on social media is crying at Todd Bowles
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: is the issue in Tampa Bay because like.
• 50:20
  Speaker 4: I mean, he, I mean he is, but that's neither
• 50:23
  Speaker 4: here nor there.
• 50:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but heky, So I'll let me to finish. So
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: Baker has been elevating this team, you know, since Brady's
• 50:32
  Speaker 3: a real retirement, and the other thing is just like
• 50:35
  Speaker 3: what is Tampa Bay without Baker Mayfield? And I'm pretty
• 50:39
  Speaker 3: sure Baker is like screaming, you need me, you need
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: me for a long time. Two years is not long.
• 50:45
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean they're backup. Is Kyle Trask.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: That should that honestly should say a lot about the
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: Bucks contingency plans because Kyle Trask is not good.
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: Not only that he's not been proven, because he was
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: supposed to be because seasy for Rador Brady until Baker
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: Mayfield got that contract awarded with the Los Angeles Rams performance.
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: I think I think the Bucks front office they realized
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: that Kyle Trask was not the answer when in a
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: meaningless game, Brandon I'm because I remember this game, Kyle
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: Trask couldn't beat out Desmond Ridder. So if you can't
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: beat out Desmond Ridder, who admittedly.
• 51:29
  Speaker 4: I have.
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: Look back in twenty twenty three, I drank the kool aid.
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: I thought Desmond Ridder was going to be the future
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: in Atlanta. Boy was I wrong on that when I was.
• 51:42
  Speaker 4: So so so so so so so wrong on Desmond Ridder.
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: But if you can't beat him, then you are not
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: NFL quarterback worthy because Ridder was horrible.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: So just just a small correction to make here, just
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: so you know, because I'm sure if anyone's actually listening,
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: they're going to turn on and call us out on
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: it too. So Kyle Trask is actually no longer a
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: Tampa Bay buccaneer. He actually worked out with the Carolina
• 52:11
  Speaker 2: Panthers and the New Orleans Saints for that.
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, how I forgot that?
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, you're back up to the field. Is actually
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: significantly worse than Kyle Trask. And that's Jake Browning.
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: Oh hey, a long time Bengals quarterback when Joe Burrow
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: was hurt.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, then yeah they they need Baker. But again,
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: I would not be paying him fifty million a year guaranteed, respectfully,
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: I don't think Baker is.
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: No not guaranteed, No, not guarantee. No, He's worth more
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: money in terms of guaranteed than what Tampa Bay was
• 52:44
  Speaker 2: offering him. But Mike no, like from the rumors of
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: what he was allegedly offered by Tampa Bay, it's that
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: was basically saying, here, you can have this money, but
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: the only thing that you get guaranteed is like a
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: sandwich and a coke.
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: So but now what kind of sandwich was it?
• 53:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. Whatever he lacks. I guess shit,
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: Jameis Winston look and got some crawd lags to go
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: with it. I don't know.
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: I mean there's a Publix right down the road from
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: the Bucks training camp exactly. But staying in the division
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: because we've kept the NFC South in line, but this
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: is going to not only be the NFC South, this
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: is going to be the NFC North. Uh.
• 53:29
  Speaker 4: We are going to start with.
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: Extensions in the NFC South. We had Matthew bergeron the
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: Falcons left guard. He just signed a four year extension
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: for twenty four million ap Y. Now, respectfully, it feels
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: a little bit like an overpay, but at the same time,
• 53:51
  Speaker 1: you like what Atlanta is doing. They are locking up
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: their offensive line because Atlanta's offensive line with the running
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: back combination they have now uh B Robinson and B Robinson.
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: So I hope that people read the fantasy drafts and
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: pick the correct B Robinson when it comes time, but.
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: I am you want them to pick the wrong B
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: Robinson so you can get the right one.
• 54:20
  Speaker 4: But see that's a thing. Which one is the right one?
• 54:25
  Speaker 4: That's the that's the ultimate.
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: That's also dependent on what fantasy drafts to use offensive
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: lineman at all, because I appreciated you just relegate offensive
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: linement to teams and not uh skill positions.
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: Well yeah, you don't draft offensive lineman in fantasy, but
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: it's it's the whole principle of getting your offensive line,
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: because I still maintain if five can't protect a camp
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: block for four from four, there's an issue. But not
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: only did Bergeron get an extension, we saw Drake London
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: get an extension and Chris olave It got an extension.
• 55:01
  Speaker 4: And again not trying.
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: To keep my bias in, but Drake London is a
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: much better receiver than Chris o' lobby.
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: And first of all, you shut your damn mouth Chris Olave.
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: I sat here at for fucking days that we would
• 55:18
  Speaker 2: trade for Chris o'lave. Are you kidding me? Right now?
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: Before the Stay J.
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: Brown rumors came true, observe here like, please do not
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: pay this man, Please do not pay this man. I
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: wanted Chris o'lve on my some day of Patriot uniforms. No,
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: Chris o'lave is a wonderful receiver. That man is worth
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: every penny he was paid. I'll dial that hill.
• 55:39
  Speaker 4: I think I ruffled.
• 55:42
  Speaker 3: No, No, I'm actually just curious because, like Chris, a
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: love is to give receiver. But I remember a lot
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: of people lad him is a concussion magnet, Chris, like
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: the infamous Derek car passes when Carr was the quarterback
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: for the Saints. But I actually need to ask you, yes, Brandon,
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: if you if you feed the Patriots needed a lobby,
• 55:57
  Speaker 3: what did a fit a love?
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: They probably would have been more than that little slot
• 56:01
  Speaker 2: receiver to backfield. What we were missing since Julian Edelman
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: had left. At the same time, he's really good at
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: and doing his little quick breakoffs and pivots to these
• 56:08
  Speaker 2: little wire outs. That's something else that we were kind
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: of missing in last year's offensive line two.
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: I mean again, like I still maintained that Drake London
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: is better than Olave Brandon.
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: That's a lit wrong.
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: Wow, What are we gonna talk about now? Jaalen Cocher?
• 56:32
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: Why would we talk about Jalen Cocher? That's like talking
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: about Xavier League.
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: Get I just I just kind of want to put
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: out here since since we're kind of comparing Elive to
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: London right now, let's just take a look to twenty
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: twenty five stat totals between the two right right twenty
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: twenty five season, Drake London sixty eight receptions, nine hundred
• 56:54
  Speaker 2: nineteen yards, seven receiving touchdowns, average thirteen point five yards per.
• 56:58
  Speaker 4: Catch, including three on your.
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: Patriots, included three on my Patriots in order in respective order.
• 57:04
  Speaker 2: That's ranked thirty sixth in the league, twenty fourth in
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: the league, tied for fifteenth, and touchdowns, and ranked thirty
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: third in the league among receivers. Chris o'lave one hundred receptions,
• 57:15
  Speaker 2: one one hundred and sixty three yards ninety ds and
• 57:19
  Speaker 2: eleven point six yards per catch. That's ranked seventh, eighth,
• 57:23
  Speaker 2: tied for eighth, and sixty fifth so again I will
• 57:26
  Speaker 2: die on the hill that Chris o'lave, even without the paper,
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: is a better receiver than Drake London. By miles. Well,
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: there's also some salt in there from the Patriots game.
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: But we are not going to talk about brunow.
• 57:40
  Speaker 4: A, right.
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, we will talk about how Drake London made
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: Christian Gonzalez his little puppy dog on that one double
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: move up the left side where Christian Gonzalez is basically
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: knocked loopy and unconscious because of Drake London. But yeah,
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: we don't talk about how that game ended. But outside
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: of those players and a little bit of friendly banter
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: from the two of us, let's talk about the two
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: players who we do want to see get extensions and
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: they are currently being hold in in their respective training camps.
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: And that's Jamier Gibbs and Bajon and as much and again,
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: at least from my vantage point, at least on the
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: Bajon side, I am David Ortiz right now with Freddie
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: Freeman after the Braves won the World Series. I've got
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: the money guns and I'm just like by the then.
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: Bye the min.
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: I do remember something I saw. It's out of Jason McIntyre.
• 58:51
  Speaker 3: I believe that's who he is from.
• 58:52
  Speaker 4: Oh yes, oh yes.
• 58:54
  Speaker 3: I want to talk about he's the one advocating for
• 58:58
  Speaker 3: Chicago the trade for Bees Robinson.
• 59:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And this is what I say to Jason McIntyre.
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: I respect what he did by creating his company, The
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: Big Lead, and I believe he sold it to Fox Sports.
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: That's why he's got that cushy job on Fox Sports.
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: And he's got that job as Cowherd's assistant on The
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: Herd every week now because Cowherd had a rotating group
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: of guest hosts. But Jason McIntyre on behalf of the
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons fan base. Please take this to heart. If
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: you think the Falcons are gonna trade Bejon Robinson to
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears, Fuck you.
• 59:52
  Speaker 5: So, Tommy Fair.
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: I mean, on the same grounds, no one really expected
• 59:55
  Speaker 2: the Giants to ship off Saquon to the Eagles. Bye.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 2: I would like to think your GM's a little bit
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: smarter than that.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: Why would And let me also bring that up because
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: again this is why I say, that's a Jason McIntyre.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: And again I respect I put that caddy out there.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: I respect what he did by creating his media company
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: and doing what he did with USA Today and Fox
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: Sports and all that. Why would the Falcons brand news, brand,
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: shiny new general manager who just came from the Chicago Bears,
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: mind you, trade the Falcon's best player to the Chicago Bears.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: That's like saying Terry Fontin though last the last four years,
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: was going to trade for Alvin Kamara, Chris o'lave, Michael Thomas,
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: and Cameron Jordan and bring them to Atlanta. And Cameron
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: Jordan has said he would rather die than be traded
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: to the Falcons. He is the lifeblood of New Orleans
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 1: Saints Atlanta Falcons rivalry.
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: Talk about public ruffling the feathers.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I had to get that off my chest because
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 1: that was completely asinine, to the point of why is
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 1: this man on a national public radio station with that
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: kind of ludic ris blasphemous bullshit.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 3: And he's out here saying that Chris that Caleb Williams
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 3: needs all the help he can get. He thinks that
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 3: Caleb that DJ opposite the Bears would actually make bavarias
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 3: a top tier team. But I asked, you have.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 4: A will make any team a top tier team?
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 3: I'd be finished. I was just saying, but if they
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 3: even if they did exciting, let's be right, they're not
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 3: gonna do it. Even if they did, what would the
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 3: Bears even give up?
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: They'd had to start with three ones. Let's put that
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: out there. They'd have to start with three ones at minimum.
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: But even then, Atlanta is not trading Jon Robinson. He
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: is not leaving that building without a contract in hand
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: from Atlanta because that was completely Look, I was so
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: livid when I saw that clip on Twitter and it
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: said that he just said that I was living. It
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 1: was like, you really let those words come out of
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: your mouth. Like, is Fox Sports Radio just battening down
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: and going to the lowest common denominator for these hot takes?
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 4: Right now? We've got better hot takes and we're only
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 4: two episodes in.
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 3: Okay, okay, I want to send this in now. I
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 3: want to see he's sarting with Jamir gives now and uh,
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 3: I actually have a really strong reasoning for this, Like
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 3: it's Timmy Grips. I mean, obviously he Brandon also mentioned
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 3: that he would take Jamir first in the fantasy draft.
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 3: Ife is ones, but guess it's a very explicit player.
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 3: You know, since this rookie season. Got that got the
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 3: Lions of the NSC championship came for the first seven years.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 3: And to me this sounds like a bad thing because
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 3: remember the Lions did not resign David Montgomery. He's with
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 3: the using Texans now and its just it's just baffling
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 3: because it's like, are they really trying to make a
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 3: push to be kept back to the playoffs or are
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: is this just like another signs like oh, this is
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 3: just a glimpse of of a barage.
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: And by the way, speaking of the Jamier Gibbs part
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: of things nova and again this is another thing for MacIntyre.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: According to Ian Rappaport, as of ten am this morning
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: on Sunday, August second, the Falcons and Baijan are actually
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: talking still about contract extension. The Lions and jamieir Gibbs
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: don't seem to be as active. Those are words from
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: the best NFL insider in the game, so take that
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: to heart.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: Especially only reliable NFL insider in today's world.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: Honestly, I mean I still give I still give Chefter
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: his due on occasion, but it's still like it's like
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 1: Rappapoor is the NFL guy.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 4: Ken Rosenthal is the MLB guy.
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 1: Dam it used to be Woes, but now it's Shams
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: and whoever is the NHL.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I go back to the whole lion Sey
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 3: because you know, they were known for the last two
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 3: years for the sonic and nuckles combination of David Montgomery
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 3: and Jimi or Gabs and that was anty in my opinion,
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 3: this is a hot take that the best running back
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 3: duo room that the NFL.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 4: See, Oh, I would. I would go with that every
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 4: day of the week.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: I because you because you had a speedback that was
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: great for eastern, East and west running and then you
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: had your power back for north and south.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but it says like the whole baffling thing for
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 3: me is like they got rid of David Montgomery, who's
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 3: now signed with the Houston Texans, who we're going to
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 3: talk about it a bit. And now this this whole
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 3: the Lendon look Tamir Gibbs and what he's worth and
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 3: with the hold out there is it's like, all right,
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 3: at he was trying to, you know, revert the decisions
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 3: that they made when they first got David Montgomery.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm over here looking at I'm looking at the
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 2: ESPN's kind of like synopsis of you know, their little
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 2: contract extensions, and it's got on here. It's got a
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: quote from Jamiir Gibbs saying, quote, I'm worried about the team.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: I'm just trying to hoop right now. I don't really
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 2: pay attention to all that stuff. Basically just letting his
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: agent negotiate with Detroit on his own. He ain't worried
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: about the extension. He knows he wants, he knows he
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 2: wants to stay there. It's just a matter of letting
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: his agent work it out. He's over here, he's still
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: playing ball, just doing his job. I don't think he's
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 2: I don't think he's too worried about getting an extension.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: I think he's just kind of doing his own thing
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: right now. Okay, I don't think he's going anywhere. Detroit
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: would be stupid to let man that man and David
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 2: Montgomery go.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: I don't think so either on that side of things.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 1: But that is the running back side of things. Let's
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: at least talk about some other contract players and let's
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: do rapid fire on these ones.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 3: Guys.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 4: First, uf Deebo Samuel one year, seven million dollars. He's
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 4: going back to San Francisco. How was that gonna work?
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: Hard? Diet?
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 3: The other than if Brandon has some strong worris for Devo,
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 3: because we actually had it behind the scenes discussion on
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 3: this episode and he had strong work for Devo.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 2: Man, it's so overrated. It's not even funny. It is.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: It's not it's funny. God, I don't know if y'all
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: remember what was it? Was it Eddie Lacy? Is Eddie
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: Lacey playing for Green Bay and the weight game that
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 2: he had coming over there trying to like pay me
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: and this man's over here while walking in out and
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 2: feels very doe boys hard whenever he's coming back to
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 2: the Houston Rockets, you know over here they man had
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 2: too much Chinese or something, and I'm like, dude, come on,
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: where are you going with all that?
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, where are you going with that? And let's
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: see how long it takes him to get in shape.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: Next up, Jalen Carter, defensive tackle of the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 1: Huge four year extension and in all fairness, that is
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: probably the most fearsome two man tandem in the a
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: gap in the NFL right now with him and Jordan
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: Davis absolutely deserved for Jalen Carter Any debates on that.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 2: No, I think that's yeah. I think that's pretty pretty deserving.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 3: Remember when how he roastman was for would to be
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 3: fired and then he's turned his Eagles front office and
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 3: the team into whatever it is right now.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 2: Imagine that.
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 4: Imagine that.
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 3: And man I speaking of the Texans, I do want
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 3: to add this as well, jade Fion Clowney today at
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 3: this recording, August second, has signed with the Houston Texans,
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 3: a team to slid him in first overall twenty fourteen,
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 3: to a one year deal, adding on to a feersome
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 3: Texan defense with with Heckers, Demigo Ryans, and.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: Will Anderson, who's still really fricking good as another off
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: ball linebacker and edge rusher.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 4: So I would be scared of Clowney coming off the edge.
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: Clowney will probably be the player best task with the
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: left tackle because it feels like Anderson is better on
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: the right tackle because that gives him more power and
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: easier access to the quarterback.
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 4: He doesn't have to worry about the blind side.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 1: He actually wants the quarterback to see him coming, and
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 1: that allows Clowney to come on the other side of
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 1: Clowney can still be left tackles in this league.
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 3: Out of my one worry with the Texans still remains
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 3: local sol coal products. CJ. Straud. He's on his contract
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 3: year and he's gotten worse every year since. For any
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 3: wikie at the year, and I think Brandon gonna tested
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 3: that from last year.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 2: I was gonna make a comment that defense could be
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: anything that it wants to be, but it still does
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 2: a sub CJ. Stroud from throwing four picks in a
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: playoff game.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't stop CJ. Stroud from that. But moving
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 1: along on the remaining contract players. Brian O'Neill offensive lineman
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: from the Minnesota Vikings signing and extension. We did just
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: talk about Berger on getting extension. Brian O'Neill. That was
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: a really well deserved contract extension for him as well.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: If I remember correctly, he has been the Vikings right
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: tackle for the last five years or something like that.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 2: Something like that.
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm actually about to look that up real quick
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: so I get that correctly.
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 3: I mean, kylot, Marie Say's all to help he can
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 3: get as well as J. J. McCarthy, depending on who
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 3: Kevin o'connall ultimately goes out there or if he somehow
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 3: decides to go for a two quarterback system, if he's
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 3: a madman, but I hope you can get it.
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So this will this would be his uh seventh
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 1: year in the NFL, going on his eighth year, So
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: this twenty twenty six season is his eight season. Brian
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 1: O'Neil absolutely deserved for his extension.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 4: So there is that.
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 1: And let's round it out with everybody's favorite team to
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: feel sorry for. That isn't the New York Jets, And
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: that's that is the Cleveland Browns, because they signed Denzel
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: Ward and Graham Delpit to a two year and a
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 1: three year deal respectively, and honestly, very well deserved for
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: both of them.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 4: I like it.
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 3: I mean as a arrival, I note that how good
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 3: dentel Ward is last quarterback he's ark he would have
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 3: the best in the league. And you know, for as
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 3: long as that Cleveland defense was good, you know, the
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 3: two years that they made the playoffs, they were fearsome,
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 3: especially with Baking Mayfield tech quarterback. But you know what
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 3: has happened since then. I mean, you could keep the
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 3: players happy, to keep the defense happy, but Devis and
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 3: Cleveland are not there anymore since those playoff appearances.
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 4: Those vibes are not there.
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: But I am happy for Denzel Ward and for grand
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: Del Pigain in those extensions, two really good players in
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: the Browns secondary. But we have to talk about the
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: other player in Cleveland that is talking about a new deal.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 2: Question Mark Giors Sanders just joined the league. Certainly it's
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 2: not Dashaun Watson.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 4: Oh, but you would be correct. You would be correct, sir.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: According to Jeff Shootle, Deshaun Watson would be open to
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 1: signing a new contract with the Browns when the current
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 1: two hundred and thirty million fully guarantee the deal expires.
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 2: H Watson absolutely fucking robbed that franchise.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 4: And thank god he didn't come to Atlanta.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 5: God they rob them blind.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 2: It's like it's the same level as Aaron Rodgers taking
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 2: the first snap in the Jets Jersey.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 1: Essentially, you are correct on that one, Brandon. I mean, look,
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 1: I know I got flag for this when I said
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 1: it a few years ago. I we can debate about
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 1: how heinous his actions were off the field for years
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: to come, and they were heinous. I'm a I'm of
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 1: the belief that if you get injured the first time, okay,
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: there's your car, there's the Karmick justice working for you.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 1: But if you're rehabbing that injury and you rerupture that injury,
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 1: then I start to feel a little sorry for you.
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 1: But at the same time, I agree the Cleveland Browns
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: got swindled. That's like paying fifty thousand dollars for a
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: brand new car with no mileage, no accidents, and you
• 1:13:25
  Speaker 1: get a lemon.
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 3: I remember they tell us the Sean over Baker. Look
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 3: where I ended up.
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, you are correct there, Brandon, No that you
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 4: are correct there. I don't know.
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, I.
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 4: Need to figure stuff out.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: But maybe we could figure Actually I might be drunk
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: right now, which goes very seamlessly into our next topic.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 1: Do we wanted to say us what happened with a
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: certain NFL quarterback that retired and knocked up another NFL
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: quarterback from his fancy schmancy broadcasting gig and did well?
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 4: But now we might not have that job no more.
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 4: I just.
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 2: I just got about Cowboys.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 3: We're not even talking about the franchise. Man, What are
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 3: we doing?
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 2: Such a decline here lately?
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 1: Poor, poor Tony ra and again he was so great
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: on the call with Jim Nance, like that kind of
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 1: commentary duo.
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 4: It's few and far between, it really is.
• 1:14:52
  Speaker 1: And early in Romo's broadcaster, I know he was getting
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: praised left and right because he was called on the
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: play before the play happened, like he could identify the
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 1: play right then and there, and it was just like
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 1: you could hear Jim Nance in his voice. He was
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 1: just like, wow, this is great, Like we're actually getting
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: the play before the play comes in. Like that's few
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 1: and far between, but it helps out when you're a
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 1: quarterback and you've seen every single defense and every single
• 1:15:24
  Speaker 1: defensive scheme, every single defensive.
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 4: Layout from a base to a four to three to
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 4: a three four, to.
• 1:15:30
  Speaker 1: A dive package to a nickel package, to the Penny
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 1: package to the goal line to the I need to
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: hold a football and I can't do it well.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 2: It's like that's specifically, remember like that exact game that
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 2: comes to mind whenever you mention that was actually the
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 2: AFCC game between New England and Kansas City. And he's
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 2: over here, Colin. I don't remember if it was the
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 2: end of regulation or if it was the start of
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 2: overtime when New England was driving down the field on
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 2: Kansas City. He's doing that exact thing that you just
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 2: said down He's over here just calling the place, seeing
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 2: how they're lined up, and he's calling it on point
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: on point, on point, on point on point, and I
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 2: just I just remember sitting there listening to the game.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 2: I'm sitting here like damn. So this is what it's
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 2: like inside of the mind of Tony Rumbo. Because even
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 2: though I hate the Cowboys with a burning passion, that
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: man was as rough and rumble as they come for
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 2: them Cowboys. He was a great scrambler. He had his
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 2: insane football IQ which which unfortunately has declined over the years.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 2: But that man was really impressive as a color commentator
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 2: with Jim Nants whenever he first got on the horn.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's sad, man, It's just sad.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 4: But one one commentator's loss is another commentator's game.
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 1: And how funny is it that from the count for
• 1:16:52
  Speaker 1: Jim Nants he goes from a cowboy to a Texan.
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 4: As his commentary partner. Because it's going.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: To be JJ Watt taking over Tony Romo's spot this year.
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 1: What are your guys' thoughts on jj Watt as a commentator.
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 3: I mean you have not seen him vi an Eagle.
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 3: I mean I have that you should know he's actually
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 3: been pretty good as a commentator as well. You know,
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 3: he made anybody work. I mean, you've seen with Dan
• 1:17:22
  Speaker 3: Fouts before, you've seen with Charles Davis and now JJ Watt,
• 1:17:25
  Speaker 3: and man, it just feels like JJ Watt he had
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 3: this one coming, you know, definitely a Hall of Fame
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 3: war we defensive end career with both the Texans and
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 3: the Cardinals, and his defense in mind and his overall
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 3: charismatic energy. I've definitely carried on well in his time
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 3: as CBS, and I do not doubt that he will
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 3: fill in shoes with Tony Robot, which, by the way,
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna add that I had a source. I'm just
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 3: gonna pull this up real quick that Okay, he had
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 3: like seventy million dollars left on his deal with CBS
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 3: four nure four years before the arrest.
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 5: And now we don't know, we don't have a clue.
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 2: I will say that I would have really liked to
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 2: have seen and maybe at some point in the future
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 2: we will Greg Olsen with jj Watt as far as
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 2: a commentator who is concerned because you have Greg Olsen,
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 2: who you know, arguably was probably one of the best
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 2: tight ends that you know, Carolina has had. He has
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 2: a great offensive mine in JJ Wattson obviously excellent defensive mentality.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 2: I would have liked to have seen where that sort
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 2: of color commentary would have went between two players of
• 1:18:33
  Speaker 2: their caliber.
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 4: Honestly, I would have as well.
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 3: But it is what it is.
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 4: With Tony Romo.
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if we'll see him back
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 1: in probably an NFL broadcast in Booth. Maybe he goes
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: to the NFL today, because at least then he won't
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: have to worry about uh sitting down in a broadcast.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 1: He'll just have to worry about sitting at a table
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: with UH nate coach Boomer and uh, actually no, he could.
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 1: He could be the fifth guy on that now that
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 1: I think about it.
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because Matt Ryan was there before.
• 1:19:13
  Speaker 1: No, yeah, man Ryan, and now he's president of football.
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: But I think that wraps up to Tony Romo discussion, guys,
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 1: And I think it's time. It's time, guys, we need
• 1:19:33
  Speaker 1: to ruffle some feathers.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 2: Did you get in my backyard all of a sudden.
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 4: I mean, did you, I mean you never you never know?
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 5: Dang dong.
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 4: Oh man.
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: But Brandon, since you had the great line right there,
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: but what is your first training camp week ruffling the feathers?
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: Oh gosh, And don't say.
• 1:20:13
  Speaker 4: A lobby is better than Drake one.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 2: Already. I mean, I'm sorry to quote, to quote a
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 2: famous movie line, you can't handle the truth really realistically.
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 2: The only the only hot take that I would personally
• 1:20:32
  Speaker 2: have more than I would classify as a hot take
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 2: is obviously you know, there's a bit of a rivalry
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 2: quote unquote. I use that term very very loosely between
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 2: the Patriots and the Giants. What I would really like
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 2: to see this year is either how much better John
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 2: Harbaugh is gonna make that team coming from Baltimore, or
• 1:20:56
  Speaker 2: how much worse he's going to have made it with
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 2: a Because in my opinion, and and and Nova can
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 2: disagree with us if he wants to, John Harbaugh has
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 2: never had a good offensive mindset. He's always been better
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 2: on defense. And I'd use that very loosely. But the
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 2: signing of OBJ back to the Giants, it's confirmed. He's
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 2: been in training camp, he's been doing eleven on eleven's.
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 2: He's been doing eleven on eleven's with everybody, so he's
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 2: he's there, whether or not he's part of the or
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 2: not he's part of the main you know, starting day
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 2: or rosters yet to be seen. But I think Obj
• 1:21:34
  Speaker 2: going back to where he you know, where his roots were.
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 2: I think him and Harbaugh is gonna make that team
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 2: a lot worse.
• 1:21:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, have you not seen what he did last year?
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 3: He hired zach Or to beat defensive coordinator exact.
• 1:21:48
  Speaker 2: Exactly, and I mean, you got you got skataboo. He
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 2: needs to be healthy again, and you need to keep
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 2: Batman running telephone poles.
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 3: I did this as well because uh, Matt Nacki's the
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 3: offensive coordinator.
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 2: Okay, so the Johnts are gonna be on the next
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 2: hard School of Hard Knocks. There, They're gonna be on
• 1:22:03
  Speaker 2: the next HBO documentary. Okay, Yeah, it's cool. Problem solved.
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah No, I think I think the Giants are probably
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 2: gonna be this year's Owen seventeen team.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, Oh my god, Owen seventeen for the Giant.
• 1:22:21
  Speaker 3: You don't believe in Jackson Dart.
• 1:22:24
  Speaker 4: I like Jackson. I like Jackson Dart I liked.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: I like a man who sat there and ran into
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 2: fucking telephone polls whenever he was in high school in college. Like,
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 2: I love that misordermenttality that they got that dog. And
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 2: I don't think Harball's good for that team. I think
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 2: he drags them done into the dirt further.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 3: Relentless chokes.
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think this is the year. I
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 2: think within the first two years of Harbaugh's contract that
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 2: if he has not made the playoffs by the end
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 2: of his second year, that he's out the door.
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 3: That's that's that's to be a true statement, because that
• 1:22:58
  Speaker 3: they've done that like every other time.
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but Nova, what is your roughland the feather? Like,
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 1: let's let's keep it going. We got to own seventeen.
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: How can you top that?
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 3: How about a little coaching beef between Ben Johnson and
• 1:23:16
  Speaker 3: Liam Cohen Because I was actually talking to this before
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 3: we got started with this episode, and I could bring
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 3: this up right now thanks to good sources on social
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 3: media Ari Mayrov for my sports Update. And there's this
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 3: whole debate which started with William Cohen saying it's easy
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 3: to motivate his players because nobody talks about the Jacksonville Jaguars,
• 1:23:33
  Speaker 3: and he quote said, I look at the NFL website
• 1:23:36
  Speaker 3: and see this entiting on the Jaguars. I think I'll
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 3: see forty fixtures of Caleb Williams and nothing on us.
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 3: It's beautiful, to which Jen Johnson responds out their name
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 3: dropping Caleb Williams while we're the number one regression candidate,
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 3: So I think we got plenty of motivation in ourselves.
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 3: We talked about Caleb in the past, he used He's
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 3: used to handling a lot of attendent, so I'm not
• 1:23:57
  Speaker 3: worried about that. And so what I might say is
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 3: not really a hot take per se, But like, what
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 3: if both Chicago and Jacksonville missed the playoffs and then
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 3: this beef ends up being like overly blown oh, because
• 1:24:16
  Speaker 3: remember both these teams were surprising from the previous season.
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 3: From the twenty twenty five seasons to the twenty twenty
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 3: six season, they were both surprises gonna be I initially
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 3: thought Jacksonville is actually gonna make the Super Bowl, and
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 3: then Chicago had that impressive run when they nearly beat
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 3: the Rams up until DJ Morist running his route. But
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 3: with this beef in mind, I think the hot take
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 3: those both. Both these teams might end up out of
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 3: the playoffs.
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 4: Dang, that's only one weekend of training camp, Brandon.
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 1: And we're gonna have two of the division winners just
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: outright and missing the playoffs.
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 2: To be fair, Jacksonville's division is not exactly something that
• 1:24:52
  Speaker 2: anyone holds in a high standard.
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 3: Reason. Remember this this whole beef three Ben Jonson and
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 3: Leam Cohen for some reason. So I think that might
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 3: be a distraction.
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 2: God love it if that games between they want to
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 2: be in a tie.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 4: Man, if their game ended and out high, that would
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 4: be crazy.
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 1: But I'm actually gonna go off on I mean, I'm
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 1: actually gonna say this as my hot take ruffling the
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 1: feather segment for the week winter training camp, and I'm
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 1: actually gonna go with Patrick Mahomes will not break thirty
• 1:25:36
  Speaker 1: five hundred passing yards this season.
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 3: I mean, Kenneth Walker plays good, I could see that.
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 1: No, I'm actually saying, even if Kenneth Walker doesn't play well,
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: Mahomes will not break thirty five hundred passing yards. I
• 1:25:51
  Speaker 1: just saw a clip on from Chiefs training camp. He
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 1: had a it was some kind of a passing play
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: and he threw it right at his center.
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 3: Oh see, you think the ACL injuries a lot worse
• 1:26:05
  Speaker 3: than you give it credit for.
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 1: I think he's going to be a little more wary
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 1: on that ACL. Then many players will give him credit for,
• 1:26:16
  Speaker 1: many media members will give him credit for, and they
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: usually say, and I'm not trying to go this route,
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 1: but the ACL is the precursor to the Achilles. I'm
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 1: not saying Mahomes will be tearing his Achilles tendon this year,
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 1: but I will think that him coming back from that
• 1:26:37
  Speaker 1: ACL injury, it will affect his mind just a little bit,
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 1: and he will not pass thirty five hundred pass yards
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: if he's granted its training camp. And I might be
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 1: shooting the gun a little bit too quick here, But again,
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 1: if you're in a passing play and you throw a
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 1: pass and it hits your center, that's a problem.
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 2: Well. I see, I said the same thing about Mahomes
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 2: last year's I didn't think he would break thirty five
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 2: hundred passing yards, which you know obviously, you know before
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 2: the injury he barely broke thirty five hundred passing yards.
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 2: I think he finished like just under thirty six. So,
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 2: but I don't know. I think the league has started
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 2: to learn how Patrick Mahomes actually plays, and there's only
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 2: so much game planning and coaching that you could do
• 1:27:33
  Speaker 2: against playmaking and creativity, which is why where I think
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 2: a lot of mahomes and successes come from. But like
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 2: you said, with that ACL injury, I think it's gonna
• 1:27:41
  Speaker 2: affect him a lot mentally, a lot more than the
• 1:27:44
  Speaker 2: media is playing it off.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 1: As I mean, Brandon, what do you, Noble, what do
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 1: you say about that?
• 1:27:52
  Speaker 4: I did it again?
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, I did it again again. The whole
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 3: thing of my host is at Acltaire and whether or
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 3: not he's been very recovering for it. But I've seen
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 3: clips where he has that good passes. But if maybe this,
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 3: maybe you are just overreacting. This is just great training campaign.
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 3: But with pre season, we may have an actual answer
• 1:28:16
  Speaker 3: to that hot take, you know, further down the lying,
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 3: you know, once we roll into September and such. And
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 3: the only thing I will say is I think you
• 1:28:24
  Speaker 3: might be right, but I'm pretty certainly ANSWER's gonna be
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 3: wrong if my host wets all seventeen games.
• 1:28:31
  Speaker 1: And that's definitely fair, but that's gonna be our ruffling
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 1: the feathers. Let us know what your ruffling the feathers
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 1: are and if you agree or disagree with what the
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 1: three of us said, but we're gonna end today's show
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 1: and recording by talking about the most beautiful thing in
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 1: the world. The most beautiful thing in the world. A
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 1: football game will be played this week. It is the
• 1:29:01
  Speaker 1: Hall of Fame game in Canton, Ohio between the Arizona
• 1:29:06
  Speaker 1: Cardinals and the Carolina Panthers. I know that game sounds
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: like money, doesn't it.
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 3: That's what Jeremiah love.
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 2: Oh boy, yay. I I am just thankful that there
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 2: is football on. To quote one of my to quote
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 2: one of my gaming buddies, uh, he has said, yes,
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 2: that game is going to be a snooze, but I
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 2: don't give it damn because it's football.
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 1: This is correct, that it is football. We are finally,
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 1: we finally had a game. And I'm just gonna go
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 1: out on a limb and say, even though we know
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: that most people won't be tuning in for much of
• 1:29:54
  Speaker 1: the game, if at all of it, it's the Panthers.
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 1: It's the Cardinals. I mean, Carson Beck might show up
• 1:30:09
  Speaker 1: in the game. I really don't know. Bryce Young might
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 1: play a driver too, and.
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be Bryce Young and Jacoby Brissac for the
• 1:30:21
  Speaker 2: opening drives and then back ups the rest of the light.
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 3: I mean, scouting your force the rest of the way. No,
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 3: you got to figure out if your guys are good
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 3: f's because there's this whole thing with Arizona Cardinals offensive
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 3: coordinator Daniel Hackett saying that James Conner's gonna be running
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 3: back when there's people that are like making this whole
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 3: debate between James Connor, Jeremiah Loved. They're number three overall,
• 1:30:42
  Speaker 3: pick afirebec correctly, and then new signee and former Falcon
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 3: Tyler als here.
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 1: And in all fairness, I'm still super happy for al
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 1: Jeer getting that money, getting a chance to be a
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 1: starter in this league. And I'm very curious if in
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 1: Arizona his streak continues, because I don't know if either
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 1: of you know this, but Tyler Algier has played four
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 1: seasons in the NFL and has never had a fumble.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 3: That might change in.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 1: Arizona again, might but he hasn't in four years. That
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 1: was something about him that Atlanta fans really loved was
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 1: that you could always count on him.
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 4: To have that ball in his hands.
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 3: But I asked, But I'm asking this again because this
• 1:31:36
  Speaker 3: is the one thing about the Cardinals that confuses me.
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 3: From Hacketts, It's like, it's also a confusing move for
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 3: Algier as well, because you have the money in Arizona,
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 3: but you're likely to be running back three because they
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 3: took Jeremiah Love. Like, what are we doing.
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 2: Looking at the looking at the death chart, looks like
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 2: Algiers actually the second running back in line, James Connors,
• 1:31:55
  Speaker 2: actually James Connor's actually third. What I've got Jeremiah Loves
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 2: as the tentative RB one, a'll Jeer Connor and then
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 2: Trey Benson.
• 1:32:06
  Speaker 3: Wow, that's surprising for me. What about you telling him?
• 1:32:13
  Speaker 2: I mean at the same time, and it is also
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 2: because Connor is not the full participant at training camp
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 2: either because he's been dealing with a foot injury.
• 1:32:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, it makes sense that Connor coming back would
• 1:32:31
  Speaker 1: be the number three bag. But I feel like because
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 1: it is the first preseason game as well with the
• 1:32:37
  Speaker 1: Hall of Fame game, uh, that that probably explains why
• 1:32:41
  Speaker 1: Jeremiah Love is the number two back because they want
• 1:32:44
  Speaker 1: to get him featured early and often give the Cardinals
• 1:32:48
  Speaker 1: fans a little bit of an idea of what they're
• 1:32:53
  Speaker 1: getting out of this young kid.
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I will be Thursday on NBC.
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 2: I think I remember football, Yeah NBC.
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 1: Yep, And I have looked it up just for a
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 1: useless stat of the day. But it actually is a
• 1:33:11
  Speaker 1: useless stat because, uh, the Hall of Fame Game is
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 1: notable for one thing outside being the first football game
• 1:33:21
  Speaker 1: of the season, essentially, even though it's preseason, and that is,
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 1: whoever gets in that game doesn't make the playoffs.
• 1:33:29
  Speaker 4: Usually.
• 1:33:31
  Speaker 3: Oh that's a new one for me.
• 1:33:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so you are cursed, Sion Cover.
• 1:33:41
  Speaker 1: But the Hall of Game, essentially with the Hall of
• 1:33:45
  Speaker 1: Fame Game, it's like Dan Housen with WWE what he
• 1:33:50
  Speaker 1: did with the Knicks. If you believe that that actually
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 1: was a legitimate thing, but when you come back from
• 1:33:56
  Speaker 1: twenty two and twenty nine points down in the same postseason,
• 1:34:01
  Speaker 1: you kind of sort of have.
• 1:34:02
  Speaker 4: To believe it a little bit. But you this is
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 4: the use of stat of the day for this Hall
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 4: of Fame Game.
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 1: Over the last twenty three seasons, the winner of the
• 1:34:14
  Speaker 1: Hall of Fame Game has failed to win a postseason
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 1: game in the same season. So whoever wins this game,
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 1: you might as well kiss your shot at the playoffs.
• 1:34:27
  Speaker 4: Goodbye?
• 1:34:30
  Speaker 2: All right? See it Carolina.
• 1:34:31
  Speaker 3: No, I'll say that, my man Price doong, don't.
• 1:34:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'll say that about the Carolina Panthers because
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 1: that helps Atlanta win the division.
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 4: Next next to this se.
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 1: Nobody is picking the Saints to win the sound who's nobody?
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 4: Hello, Hello, I'm nobody.
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 2: I mean I know you are also the same person
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 2: who said that Drake London was better than chrislave And I.
• 1:34:58
  Speaker 4: Will stand on that, thank you very much.
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 3: Ok.
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 4: Isn't that Isn't that great? Isn't that great? Guys? Yeah, But.
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 1: Honestly, I mean, that's that's just how it is with
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame game. If you win the game,
• 1:35:23
  Speaker 1: you're cursed. If you lose the game, you're less cursed. Apparently,
• 1:35:27
  Speaker 1: they're four and five in the last twenty three years
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 1: the loser of the Hall of Fame game.
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 3: So who knows four or five? What making the playoffs?
• 1:35:38
  Speaker 4: They've gone four and five in the playoffs just in general.
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 4: Oh so.
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 3: We're not clarification for the audience.
• 1:35:47
  Speaker 1: And I will say this. Last year's game was the
• 1:35:54
  Speaker 1: Chargers and the Detroit Lions, and yeah, the Charger has
• 1:36:00
  Speaker 1: made it zero to nine in the last twenty four
• 1:36:05
  Speaker 1: years because they made the playoffs and I think they
• 1:36:10
  Speaker 1: played a team in the Northeast if I remember correctly,
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 1: in the first round of the playoffs with Well, it's
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 1: supposed to be a world beat or defense and they
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 1: only got a field goal.
• 1:36:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was supposed to be the game for Justin
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 3: Herbert if I break out a shout, but nope, not happening.
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 2: Justin Herbert's got an arm, that's all he's good for.
• 1:36:36
  Speaker 3: Dang, that's gonna have set the fans over in my
• 1:36:40
  Speaker 3: area because you don't got Chargers fans in LA.
• 1:36:43
  Speaker 4: Wait there when Chargers fans exist in Los Angeles?
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 3: Yes, because the one time I went to a Ravens
• 1:36:48
  Speaker 3: game at so if I Stadium. They're actually a fair
• 1:36:50
  Speaker 3: amount of Chargers fans.
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 1: I mean that could be fair because some people actually
• 1:36:55
  Speaker 1: don't know about this, haven't all and this Chargers debate
• 1:36:58
  Speaker 1: or talk with this. The Chargers were there before the Rams,
• 1:37:03
  Speaker 1: Like people don't realize that, But the Chargers were in
• 1:37:06
  Speaker 1: LA first, they were in LA in nineteen sixty then
• 1:37:10
  Speaker 1: they moved to San Diego in nineteen sixty one, and
• 1:37:13
  Speaker 1: they were there up until they decided, Hey, let's move
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 1: back to.
• 1:37:17
  Speaker 3: La talk about San Diego.
• 1:37:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, talk about San Diego.
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 1: But ladies and gentlemen, that is going to end episode
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 1: two of the Ruffling the Feathers podcast. Guys, thank you
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 1: so much for listening to us, Babylon, like the three
• 1:37:39
  Speaker 1: wonderful NFL fans and media members that we are, Brandon,
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 1: What do you have to say to everybody out there?
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 2: I just hope that this is an enjoyable listen for
• 1:37:51
  Speaker 2: anybody who actually has you know, got the time to
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 2: give us the view. And I think we've all had
• 1:37:56
  Speaker 2: a lot better internet connection for today. So hopefully, you know,
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 2: whenever we translate this podcasting, upload it and it'll actually
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 2: lead someone audible.
• 1:38:06
  Speaker 1: Spectrum, Yes, yes, thank you, Thank you Spectrum, you actually
• 1:38:11
  Speaker 1: worked for once in your life.
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 4: Uh Nova, what do you have to say?
• 1:38:17
  Speaker 3: All I have to say is hopefully we could get
• 1:38:19
  Speaker 3: this done, you know, as quickly as we can. You know,
• 1:38:21
  Speaker 3: we're trying to expect out of this processes and then hopefully,
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 3: if all goes well, this should be another weekly episode
• 1:38:26
  Speaker 3: coming in next week, and I'm sure we're gonna have
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 3: a lot more answers from the Hall of Fame Game
• 1:38:31
  Speaker 3: at least with the Cardinals and Panthers specifically, But I
• 1:38:34
  Speaker 3: wouldn't be surprised if more news breaks out over the weekend.
• 1:38:38
  Speaker 3: But in comparison from the last episode, this one, I mean,
• 1:38:42
  Speaker 3: to the next one, I would expect the next one
• 1:38:43
  Speaker 3: to be shorter, just because I think there'd be less
• 1:38:45
  Speaker 3: news from training camp.
• 1:38:46
  Speaker 1: In the Hall of Fame game, yeah, most likely there
• 1:38:51
  Speaker 1: there would be less information. But again for Brandon and
• 1:38:56
  Speaker 1: for super Nova, we want to thank you guys for
• 1:39:00
  Speaker 1: supporting us here at Ruffling the Feathers. We hope that
• 1:39:03
  Speaker 1: we ruffle your feathers enough that you try to ruffle
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 1: ours back with some of your own hot takes in
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 1: the NFL. But until the next time, we're flying out.
