  3 lifelong friends, 6 trusty balls and endless NFL takes.
• 0:05
  Welcome to Three guys 6 Balls NFL Podcast.
• 0:08
  Welcome to the Halloween episode of Three Guys 6 Balls NFL
• 0:11
  podcast. Today we are all wearing our
• 0:13
  Halloween costumes for this episode and so Avery and Will
• 0:17
  currently have their cameras covered, so they're going to
• 0:22
  reveal their costumes. Who wants to go first?
• 0:26
  Or both at the same time? I can go first, just get it over
• 0:31
  with. Let's just do it both at the
• 0:32
  same time all. Right.
• 0:35
  All right, on three. All right, 123I couldn't.
• 0:42
  Go. Will looks like a filter.
• 0:50
  It's like, so he's got a snap. I've been fighting for my wife
• 0:54
  and this thing, guys, I'll be absolutely fighting for it.
• 0:57
  I'm here. I promise you're you're
• 0:59
  drowning. Avery looks like a.
• 1:03
  Weiner. Avery looks like an orc.
• 1:10
  You say a plague Dr. but like a white?
• 1:13
  One I know you're are you supposed to be grew?
• 1:19
  Yes. Of course he is.
• 1:22
  Feel like I'm going to get labeled as anti-Semitic for this
• 1:25
  just because just as is. Don't worry, I'm kosher that we
• 1:31
  even got kosher. I got this off Amazon and I
• 1:34
  haven't looked back at the listing but I swear it looks so
• 1:37
  much better than this. Like it was late when I got it
• 1:41
  but it was either this or just attach a really long prosthetic
• 1:45
  nose which felt even worse somehow.
• 1:49
  It doesn't even cover the back. I've got this like net thing.
• 1:53
  I don't, I don't even need it. It's just so it doesn't pull my
• 1:56
  hair I guess. It doesn't look anything.
• 1:58
  Like so far audio. No it doesn't.
• 2:01
  I see more glasses or something so I can cover up these like
• 2:05
  skin suit holes dude. For audio.
• 2:09
  Looks like what Dwight was trying to do during CPR day
• 2:13
  Claris. From eyebrows up, just above
• 2:17
  your eyebrows up, Avery is Lord Voldemort.
• 2:20
  From eyebrows down, it's the exact opposite.
• 2:22
  I'm a banker. From the same world.
• 2:25
  You're a great, good banker. Oh no, I.
• 2:34
  Think I can like mold this into? That's freaking I'm wearing.
• 2:40
  I'm wearing a quote UN quote, one-size-fits-all hot dog
• 2:44
  costume. I know who all wears, but I'm
• 2:47
  not all. Are you going to say ask me
• 2:49
  about my we're going to make? Multiple sizes.
• 2:54
  Maybe. And I am the God of Thunder
• 2:56
  Thor. This hair is going to be really
• 3:01
  hard to. Oh, the hairs.
• 3:06
  It's a million. I put a sweatshirt on.
• 3:08
  Just say, oh, I'm wearing this hot dog costume.
• 3:11
  It's usually cold. It's a million degrees in this
• 3:13
  thing. I'm like an actual boiling
• 3:15
  Wiener. It's not I.
• 3:17
  Took AI, took a sweater and put it inside.
• 3:20
  But I did a really bad job so I look hella frumpy.
• 3:24
  I'm definite I'm glad we're doing this because otherwise I
• 3:27
  would not have prepped before actually going out on Halloween.
• 3:30
  So I know now I need to get something to even this out just
• 3:34
  like. You might need a new mask.
• 3:39
  Too. Yeah, it's like this tumor right
• 3:44
  here that keeps popping out. I have to keep pushing it back
• 3:46
  in and it pops out again. Anyways, that was just like four
• 3:55
  straight minutes of me just laughing the entire.
• 3:57
  Time I'm going to grab, I'm going to grab a hat.
• 3:58
  I think that might help somehow. Anyway, well, Avery's doing
• 4:03
  that. We have a Halloween themed
• 4:06
  episode for you guys today. We're going to do a little bit
• 4:09
  of trick or treat, which is some contender or pretender, and then
• 4:14
  we're going to talk about which of the teams with a losing
• 4:17
  record would be the most scary to play right now.
• 4:20
  But before we do that, Will is going to Will is going to give
• 4:24
  us his Week 8 recap wearing his Wiener.
• 4:30
  Yeah, sorry, everybody who's watching on video, this is an
• 4:34
  unsolicited winner pick. I didn't mean to.
• 4:36
  I'm not meant to do it, but I didn't mean it like that.
• 4:39
  I'm so sorry. Sorry.
• 4:40
  It's. Actually extremely solicited.
• 4:42
  He's broadcasting it to the Internet.
• 4:44
  Yeah, sorry, Dwayne specifically, we love you.
• 4:48
  Yes, all right, all right. Anyway, week 8, I'll do my best
• 4:55
  from in here. It's a It's also very loud in
• 4:57
  here. Every time this thing moves,
• 5:00
  it's so loud. Anyway, Week 8, Thursday night
• 5:04
  we had Chargers, excuse me, Vikings at Chargers.
• 5:07
  Oh, Carl Winston is buying a car and we're so bad JJ McCarthy's
• 5:10
  are coming back next week, which is not an upgrade.
• 5:13
  Chargers go from the worst uniforms to some great ones.
• 5:15
  It's no wonder why they won. You got to look good to play
• 5:18
  good. Also, did you guys see JJ
• 5:21
  McCarthy on the sideline jump over that guy and totally not be
• 5:25
  injured at all? I did not see that actually.
• 5:28
  Oh, there's a clip of JJ McCarthy on the sideline where
• 5:31
  one of the players goes out and like is rolling on the ground
• 5:34
  right in front of him and he like, jumps up and lands and the
• 5:38
  the guy who was rolling like hits his ankle and say, how
• 5:41
  injured were you really? Anyway, then we got Dolphins at
• 5:45
  Falcons. Kirk cousin looks like he'd
• 5:46
  never played football before. Two or three for four tuds.
• 5:49
  This game was all kind of backwards.
• 5:51
  Based on preseason, this is how we would have thought this game
• 5:54
  would win, but based on the way the season's been going, I don't
• 5:57
  even know anymore. Then we have Bears at Ravens.
• 6:00
  Ravens you have much need to win from Lamar Light and the Bears
• 6:03
  are bad again. The world is restored.
• 6:05
  Jets at Bengals. Bengals stole the ball from the
• 6:09
  Monstars to go out and get a win.
• 6:12
  It didn't look good early but the Bengals bad play calling and
• 6:16
  kept them from having a chance to win this game.
• 6:18
  And there are no more winless teams in the NFL this year.
• 6:21
  Bills at Panthers. I mean, what do we think was
• 6:24
  going to happen here, right? The Bills coming off of by who
• 6:27
  they play the Chiefs next week. They had to stick it to
• 6:29
  somebody. The red rifle out there shooting
• 6:31
  blanks it, it was just a just a reminder.
• 6:35
  The Panthers are just OK. Niners, Texans.
• 6:39
  This is the Texans we thought we were going to get from the start
• 6:41
  of the year. Just about 7 weeks too late.
• 6:43
  CMC had 68 total scrimmage yards and that team lives and dies
• 6:48
  with him. And this week they died.
• 6:50
  Well, mustache hairs in the nose.
• 6:51
  Oh, this hot dog costume is wonderful.
• 6:53
  Amazing. This thing is blowing air right
• 6:56
  back up into my nose, it's so condensed.
• 7:02
  Will your costume is just so funny because I can't even see.
• 7:06
  I can't even see your mouth. It still looks like a filter to
• 7:10
  me. It still looks like a filter.
• 7:12
  I know it's either it's either it's up like this and I can see
• 7:15
  okay, or it's down like this and it's squeezing my glasses on my
• 7:18
  face. Anyway, we got Brands going to
• 7:22
  the Patriots Browns bed Pats good, but only in the
• 7:25
  second-half. This time we are getting
• 7:27
  glimpses of a good Browns team. We're just not.
• 7:30
  The universe isn't quite there yet.
• 7:32
  So you know, here we go, another week.
• 7:34
  Giants at Eagles. Eagles no longer get to complain
• 7:37
  about bad officiating ever again in the history of the universe,
• 7:40
  and this touch push has got to go.
• 7:42
  Eagles do get the window. Bucks at Saint, we are going to
• 7:45
  wait, Wait, wait, wait. I'm sure.
• 7:46
  OK, OK, OK, hold on, hold on. We'll circle back here.
• 7:50
  Bucks at Saints. Saints are so bad that that
• 7:53
  after that game they benched Spencer Rattler for Tyler Shuck
• 7:55
  moving forward. Unfortunately for them, they're
• 7:57
  up against the Rams next week now a good week to be named the
• 8:00
  starter. Bucks get a big win there.
• 8:02
  Titans at Colts. This Colts team may actually be
• 8:05
  the best team in football. They're taking Johns and Taylor
• 8:08
  and a band of merry misfits mixing.
• 8:10
  That was incredible play calling and putting teams in the dirt.
• 8:13
  Cowboys at Broncos Sorry, this is what I'm a fan of, what I
• 8:19
  wrote here. Let me go one more time here.
• 8:23
  Cowboys at Broncos. This is what happens when you do
• 8:25
  too much saving a horse and riding a cowboy.
• 8:27
  Broncos getting their second game of the season that ended in
• 8:31
  more than one possession game. Packers that Steelers had Jordan
• 8:35
  Love showing Aaron Rodgers all the things that he told him
• 8:37
  there's on the bench. We haven't seen crap that good
• 8:39
  since WAP came out, but the Packers still have a tie so I
• 8:42
  don't really know what to think of them.
• 8:44
  And then she commanders that Chiefs.
• 8:46
  We made everyone back to the point of the season where we all
• 8:49
  hate the Chiefs for being good. We had a good laugh early in the
• 8:52
  season, but now we all hate the Chiefs again.
• 8:55
  And that we hate. Again, just as much when they
• 8:57
  were bad. Yeah, but we had a good laugh at
• 9:00
  that. But now we can't laugh at them
• 9:01
  anymore. We can say ha ha, remember last
• 9:06
  time that's. What you can say?
• 9:14
  So I'll tell Lincoln like, ha, remember that one time they
• 9:18
  didn't do so well? Yeah.
• 9:21
  Idiot. Such a good disc.
• 9:27
  I feel like this hat looks like a Lego Star Wars like like
• 9:30
  Chewbacca and Lego Star Wars it does it seem to be at least
• 9:36
  productive. If you're here for sports at
• 9:38
  all, I would just turn the episode off.
• 9:40
  It's not going to be good this week.
• 9:41
  How is that hat? Staying on your head.
• 9:45
  Top of the morning to you. Oh, you've got.
• 9:47
  Like a nugget on top, it's much showed.
• 9:50
  Nice, it's. Called a hat tumor.
• 9:56
  I'm just going to be laughing the entire time.
• 9:59
  The entire. Episode.
• 10:06
  Anyways, let's talk about the tush Bush.
• 10:10
  OK, so I have some thoughts on the tush Bush here.
• 10:13
  I feel like the the tush Bush is a perfect example of why people
• 10:18
  think the NFL is rigged. There is no consistency in
• 10:21
  officiating the tush push and the officiating is heavily in
• 10:25
  favor of the Philadelphia Eagles on that play.
• 10:28
  And it's not even about the play anymore.
• 10:30
  Like it's a 1 yard play, let them run a 1 yard play.
• 10:33
  But the officiating is terrible. And I know what Eagles fans are
• 10:35
  going to say. They're going to say, well if
• 10:37
  you don't like it then try to stop it.
• 10:39
  Figure out a way to stop it, but how do you stop it when the
• 10:42
  officiating is stopping you from stopping the play?
• 10:44
  Not only do you have to stop the play, you have to stop the
• 10:47
  officiating from stopping you from stopping the play.
• 10:50
  So if that's the case, how do you how do you stop it?
• 10:53
  Like it's not even about them running the Tushbush anymore.
• 10:56
  It's a 1 yard play. Forget about them running
• 10:58
  Tushbush. It's about how awful the
• 11:00
  officiating is on this play because they are heavily
• 11:03
  favoring the Philadelphia Eagles every single time they run the
• 11:06
  Tushbush. So one of two things needs to
• 11:08
  happen here and is going to happen.
• 11:10
  Either the NFL is going to ban this play or they need to figure
• 11:14
  out right now, not after the season, right now, how to
• 11:17
  properly officiate this play. Well, they're not going to do
• 11:20
  anything in the middle of the season.
• 11:22
  That's just not going to happen. All they have to do is just
• 11:24
  call, call the false starts and not call ridiculous forward
• 11:28
  progress calls. That's all they have to do.
• 11:30
  It's that easy. It's not what they do.
• 11:33
  The the false start, it should be obvious like the fact that we
• 11:38
  even have to bring that up is an issue that entirely rests with
• 11:41
  the refs like that something is like, look, this is a
• 11:44
  controversial play. Get your eyes on it like let's.
• 11:47
  Find out did. They guard move.
• 11:50
  They've called it on other teams, like a couple weeks ago
• 11:52
  when the Steelers ran it against the Vikings, I believe it was,
• 11:55
  they called a false start on the Steelers on that play.
• 11:58
  And I know they've called it on the Eagles before, but majority
• 12:02
  of the time they do not call a false start on the Eagles when
• 12:04
  they are false starting. And it's not just one guy who's
• 12:07
  even false starting, it's multiple lineman who false start
• 12:10
  on that play. It's ridiculous.
• 12:12
  I just I don't like, I mean specifically the play against
• 12:16
  the Giants. I think it's like, Kay, what
• 12:19
  exactly is forward progress then?
• 12:21
  Because I've seen plenty of running backs, they got the ball
• 12:24
  stripped out of them after they had stopped progressing forward
• 12:29
  is like it's like, well, when are you down?
• 12:31
  The whistle didn't blow. He didn't touch the ground.
• 12:34
  Like, in fact, I don't even think he had completely like
• 12:36
  stop moving like that was that wasn't like after the play was
• 12:41
  done. I mean he reached it out and he
• 12:42
  got taken from. There's a reason you do that in
• 12:44
  the end zone, because once you cross the plane with the ball,
• 12:48
  the play is over. But that's not the case here.
• 12:51
  It's not a first down. Like it the the first down
• 12:53
  doesn't stop the play. So I see I'm like, dude, if
• 12:55
  you're going to be body surfing your guys like the ball is live,
• 13:00
  like you better get a knee down. So I, I see it like, dude, if
• 13:04
  you're going to, if you're going to go over these players,
• 13:05
  because I'll, I'll tell you what, like they won't say he's
• 13:07
  down yet. He hasn't touched the ground.
• 13:10
  So it's like, how much further can he crawl over bodies to get
• 13:14
  further yards? Like is that the play or is it
• 13:17
  just when we decide it's like he, he already got the first
• 13:20
  down. So play is dead.
• 13:21
  You can't take it anymore. I'm like, dude, if you're not on
• 13:23
  the ground and, and because they normally they'll, they'll call
• 13:26
  it when it's like, OK, we've reached a stalemate.
• 13:28
  You've been sitting there for too long, you know, or do you
• 13:31
  start moving backwards, you know, against your will,
• 13:33
  whatever the plays over like that's fine, but this No, no,
• 13:36
  dude, do you just leave that ball open there?
• 13:39
  No, they you should be able to take it all.
• 13:42
  Right. May I may I follow that up
• 13:44
  please? Give us your professional
• 13:46
  officiating opinion here, Will. Yeah, that's actually where I'm
• 13:50
  coming at this from. Progress is a judgement call,
• 13:53
  right? So hard.
• 13:54
  That's what just touched the mic.
• 13:57
  Progress is a judgement call and it always will be.
• 13:59
  And it's actually, that's why it's not reviewable.
• 14:02
  That's why you're going to review.
• 14:02
  In this case, I do think, I think it was a strip.
• 14:05
  I think Cayman Thibodeau got that ball.
• 14:08
  It was a strip. But no time ever in the history
• 14:13
  of football will you get a whistle for forward progress
• 14:18
  until something happens. It is.
• 14:22
  It is. It is behooving upon the NFL and
• 14:25
  all referees everywhere to let that play keep going for every
• 14:29
  possible second in case something happens.
• 14:32
  And then when something has imminence, that's when you blow
• 14:36
  your whistle. You don't do it early.
• 14:37
  You wait. If somebody's going to get hurt,
• 14:39
  it's going to get blown up if they actually start going
• 14:42
  backwards. But he stopped progress versus
• 14:48
  because by rule, forward progress is literally forward.
• 14:51
  So when they go sideways, your forward progress has stopped.
• 14:55
  And so, so when you're when you're stop motion, you're not
• 14:59
  down yet, but your progress is stopped.
• 15:01
  So if something happens, hey, this happened after his progress
• 15:04
  was stopped. So the place actually dead here.
• 15:07
  If they're going to make that call, they need to be more
• 15:09
  emphatic with you have to sell it way more.
• 15:12
  And I tried to sell it a lot, but it's a thing that's never
• 15:14
  going to happen. Everyone's mad about it.
• 15:16
  Oh, there was no whistle, right, because progress isn't
• 15:19
  officially stopped. And until it is, right, like he
• 15:23
  couldn't and it it is always going to favor every offensive
• 15:27
  player ever. Progress will always favor the
• 15:29
  offense because how he kept how he got his seat and kept
• 15:33
  running. OK, progress was never actually
• 15:35
  stopped. It was stalled, but not stopped.
• 15:37
  But if if that ball gets stripped out, that ball was
• 15:40
  going backwards when it was stripped out.
• 15:43
  So now progress has stopped because he had stopped moving
• 15:46
  and then the ball went backwards.
• 15:48
  Now in this case, I do like, I do like the strip in this case,
• 15:53
  but a big thing in officiating is no cheap turnovers, no cheap
• 15:56
  penalties, no cheap turnovers. If the if the, if his progress
• 16:00
  was stopped, it was stopped. If, if it was a false start, it
• 16:03
  should have been a false start. On those false starts.
• 16:05
  We're talking about like 1/10 of a second.
• 16:08
  You slow it down frame by frame. Oh, it's obvious.
• 16:11
  But in real time, the untrained professional, you're never
• 16:14
  seeing that. Now these are trained
• 16:15
  professionals. I get that.
• 16:17
  But all right, I also think the play needs to go.
• 16:20
  I think it should be banned. More importantly, I want to
• 16:23
  point out that when Will's mustache barely go back, go
• 16:26
  back, go back, put it back in. When Will's mustache barely
• 16:32
  peeks out, he. Looks, Danny.
• 16:34
  Hitler. In my hair.
• 16:45
  Is it better? That looks better.
• 16:47
  Well you were right, this is truly going to be the most
• 16:50
  unproductive episode. Hey look, I'm a Wiener head.
• 16:58
  Anyways, if I was the Philadelphia Eagles, I would go
• 17:03
  up to the officiating crew before every single game and I
• 17:06
  would tell them I need you to officiate the tush push.
• 17:10
  When we run the tush push, I need you to officiate it as
• 17:13
  close as you've ever officiated any play before because if you
• 17:17
  don't, we will not be able to run this play next season.
• 17:21
  If I was the Eagles, I would be making an emphasis to the
• 17:24
  officiating crew, like if we fall start, call it on us.
• 17:27
  I don't care if it's a penalty, call it on us because the Eagles
• 17:32
  know. They have to know at this point
• 17:34
  that it's going to get banned if this type of officiating
• 17:36
  continues. They have to know.
• 17:39
  I don't, I mean, I don't even think they would care if I was
• 17:41
  an Eagles coach or fan. I'd be like, sweet, like we'll
• 17:45
  abuse it until you guys do something about it.
• 17:47
  Like we have no incentive not to run it right now.
• 17:50
  In fact, the more of an outcry there is, the more we know that
• 17:53
  we're doing good with this. We are.
• 17:55
  This is a good thing. And if they ban it, great.
• 17:58
  No one gets to play with it anymore.
• 18:00
  And then we'll adapt to something else.
• 18:01
  But in the meantime, we're the only ones not getting called for
• 18:04
  false starts as much. We're the ones running it more
• 18:07
  than anyone. I mean, as far as a competitive
• 18:10
  edge go, I mean, I can't blame the Eagles.
• 18:13
  I just think, look, dude, if you're going to stick the ball
• 18:16
  out before you've touched the ground, like you're done, like
• 18:19
  it's gone. Like the ball's gone.
• 18:21
  It's not forward progress. Touch the ground, boy.
• 18:24
  Yeah, I I do agree with that. All right, well, since we are
• 18:28
  talking about the Philadelphia Eagles, we might as well just
• 18:32
  roll that conversation right into our next topic.
• 18:34
  So we're going to do, we're going to play a little game of
• 18:37
  trick or treat, which is contender or pretender.
• 18:41
  Obviously a trick is a pretender and a treat is a contender.
• 18:45
  So I have six teams here for you guys.
• 18:47
  I want you guys to tell me if these teams are a trick or a
• 18:51
  treat. And I picked three teams from
• 18:54
  the AFC and three teams from the NFC.
• 18:57
  And just so you guys know, I did not pick the Bucks or the Rams
• 19:00
  because I feel like we would all say that they are contenders.
• 19:04
  Those bad boys are Turkish delights.
• 19:07
  That's how much of a treat they are.
• 19:09
  They're. Looking like snack.
• 19:11
  Dude. All right, so we will start with
• 19:14
  the NFC teams because we're talking about the Eagles.
• 19:16
  So the first one is the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 19:19
  So trick or treat the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 19:23
  Are contenders. Pause, pause.
• 19:26
  Are we talking like could win the Super Bowl contender or make
• 19:30
  the playoffs contender? Or what level of contender?
• 19:33
  Championship, I want to be a contender.
• 19:35
  When I say contender, I'm talking about like Super Bowl.
• 19:39
  Contender we're talking Rocky 1 going to win it all kind of
• 19:41
  thing. OK, well, he didn't win it so.
• 19:44
  I've never seen a Rocky. He lost, but it was a good loss,
• 19:47
  I guess. All right, so trick or treat the
• 19:52
  Philadelphia Eagles. I'm going here.
• 19:57
  I can't. I can't.
• 20:00
  It's pushing this thing like into my eyeball.
• 20:03
  Hey, how are your 3 adopted daughters doing?
• 20:05
  Should you be not ignoring them right now anyway?
• 20:11
  Oh, and he has a son. 2 I forgot he has a son.
• 20:13
  Too. He's probably never even seen
• 20:15
  the movie. Wait what?
• 20:18
  Bru hasn't seen a Bru. I've only seen 20 minutes of the
• 20:23
  first one. Is he a wife?
• 20:27
  Or is he doing it with Yeah, he has a minions.
• 20:30
  Which is why it's not so crazy, I thought.
• 20:33
  He was a loner who just wanted to steal the moon.
• 20:35
  Two or three, something like that.
• 20:37
  You know, there's three of them and two minutes, 2 minutes
• 20:39
  movies. There's four there's four
• 20:43
  there's four there's. 4. Yes, and a Despicable Me movie
• 20:49
  or two. Anyway.
• 20:53
  Anyway. Eagles are are treats.
• 20:55
  They are absolute. Treats OK, OK.
• 20:58
  When they get their whole team put together, they are going to
• 21:01
  be very good if they can you're. Very yummy if.
• 21:04
  They can get the offense, both passing and running to work in
• 21:08
  the same game that I mean, they're just going to walk all
• 21:12
  over people. Their defense I don't think is
• 21:14
  as good as life here, but I still think they're very good.
• 21:18
  Avery. See, yes, I I concur.
• 21:23
  I just don't think that they've, I mean, I wouldn't want to face
• 21:26
  them. That's enough.
• 21:28
  And we did, and we lost. So yeah, they're a treat.
• 21:31
  OK, well I actually put that they are a trick and the reason
• 21:35
  why is I think the Philadelphia Eagles are a trick because if
• 21:42
  just listen to these numbers. So this is last year's numbers
• 21:44
  compared to this year's numbers. So last year they were 10th in
• 21:48
  rushing yards allowed. This year they're 19th.
• 21:51
  Last year they were first in passing yards allowed.
• 21:54
  This year they're 18th. Last year they were second in
• 21:56
  points allowed. This year they're 18th.
• 21:59
  Last year offensively they were second in rush yards per game.
• 22:02
  This year they're 19th. Last year they were 8th in total
• 22:05
  yards per game. This year, they're 23rd.
• 22:07
  Last year you could tell that the Eagles were a special team.
• 22:11
  They just felt special. Everything about that team last
• 22:14
  year felt special. This year, nothing really feels
• 22:16
  special about the Eagles. Are they still a good team?
• 22:19
  Yeah, they're still a good team. Are they special like they were
• 22:22
  last year? I don't think so.
• 22:24
  And so I don't think that they are truly a Super Bowl
• 22:27
  contender, which is why I put that they are a trick.
• 22:32
  One thing I'll say in opposition to that a little bit is the
• 22:36
  selective weapons they use every game.
• 22:38
  Like A.J. Brown clearly has the goods and
• 22:42
  whether they just haven't been able to go to him or he's been
• 22:44
  just well defended, like when he does go off, like that's a real
• 22:48
  threat. And so I feel like for the most
• 22:50
  part, like it's it feels like they're not even using like
• 22:55
  their full strength. That's like kind of a vibes
• 22:57
  observation more than anything. But I feel like if the game
• 23:01
  needed to turn in a different direction, like as far as their
• 23:03
  offensive weapons go, I feel like they have all the goods
• 23:06
  there and it really just comes down to coaching.
• 23:08
  That being said, I've seen them look lost and disjointed a lot
• 23:11
  of time. So as of right now, like if you
• 23:15
  would ask, if you'd asked me like the Eagles versus the
• 23:18
  Bucks, but like in I guess well do the NFC Championship, I would
• 23:23
  be scared because I think like I think the Eagles will probably
• 23:25
  just get better than they are now.
• 23:27
  So I just wouldn't want to bet against them.
• 23:31
  Yeah, I just feel like that we haven't seen the Eagles really
• 23:35
  play a full game at their capacity.
• 23:40
  Like we've seen them play parts of games at their full capacity,
• 23:43
  but then they just like for whatever reason stop or they do,
• 23:47
  they don't do it for the 1st 3/4 and then they turn it on in the
• 23:51
  fourth quarter. Like eventually that's going to
• 23:52
  come back to bite you, especially in the play offs when
• 23:56
  when you're in the play offs, you're going against the best
• 23:58
  teams in the NFL. So it's like, you know, in the
• 24:02
  play offs you can't do that. You have to play a full 4
• 24:04
  quarters in the play offs if you want to win.
• 24:07
  And I don't feel like we've really seen that from the
• 24:09
  Philadelphia Eagles this year. Yeah.
• 24:14
  All right, so we'll do. We'll switch off.
• 24:16
  So we'll go one NFC, one AFC. So the next one is trick or
• 24:20
  treat the Indianapolis Colts. Oh, treat absolute traits,
• 24:27
  Avery. You go first with time.
• 24:30
  Yeah, I mean, until they've given us a reason.
• 24:32
  I mean, I feel like the first few weeks it was like maybe
• 24:35
  they're just on this hot streak and then teams will kind of
• 24:37
  catch up and then it'll like equal back out.
• 24:39
  But so far that's not been the case, like Will said.
• 24:43
  But what's his name? What's Jonathan Taylor?
• 24:50
  Jonathan. Taylor and his band of misfits,
• 24:53
  I say. I think that Carly is the reason
• 24:56
  for their success and I will stand by that.
• 24:59
  I don't think the head coach or the coordinators or the players
• 25:02
  have anything to do with it. I think it's that snack on the
• 25:05
  sidelines. You know what I'm?
• 25:07
  Saying I know. Saying yeah.
• 25:10
  She's looking looking good up there.
• 25:13
  But yeah, they can try to this hot dog.
• 25:16
  I sorry, Dwayne, I agree. And like I said in my in my
• 25:25
  weekly wrap up, they're taking a team that should not be as good
• 25:30
  as they are and due to superior play calling, just handily
• 25:36
  winning. What is their point differential
• 25:38
  on either It's? Really so wet in there dude.
• 25:45
  Never said that before. My wife, the part, they're only
• 25:49
  one loss. It's probably the best team in
• 25:51
  the NFL, but that's not really when you dwell on here.
• 25:55
  He's a ranch. They're.
• 25:56
  Yeah, they got that dog in them. The argument everyone keeps
• 26:03
  making is that who've they beaten?
• 26:05
  Who've they beaten? These are these are actual
• 26:09
  teams. These are NFL teams that they're
• 26:11
  beating by 20 plus points consistently.
• 26:15
  I mean, oh, they played the Raiders, but they beat them 40
• 26:18
  to 6. The other grown men who were
• 26:20
  paid to do the same thing that the Coulter paid to do.
• 26:24
  They're beating them by 34 points at the Titans.
• 26:28
  They beat, they just beat them 3814.
• 26:30
  They scored at least 30 points in their last four straight
• 26:33
  games. That's crazy.
• 26:36
  That's that's really good. And they scored 30 plus in all
• 26:40
  but three of their games and so and one of those they got 29.
• 26:45
  They have the number one offense in the league.
• 26:47
  Right now they are, they are good.
• 26:50
  And I will refuse to hear that they're not until until they
• 26:54
  approve it. And they being a Chiefs, this
• 26:57
  the 23rd, is that Thanksgiving or is it the week of
• 27:00
  Thanksgiving? That is the Sunday before
• 27:03
  Thanksgiving. Yeah, they play the Chiefs.
• 27:07
  I will be surprised if that does not get bumped to the Sunday
• 27:09
  night game that week. That's a 10 AM game my time.
• 27:13
  I I always surprised if it doesn't get bumped to Sunday
• 27:14
  night because that is going to be a very good game, which could
• 27:17
  have significant playoff implications for playoff
• 27:20
  seeding. Now, I know the Chiefs have lost
• 27:21
  three games and the Colts have only lost one, but coming down a
• 27:25
  stretch there, that could be, that could be a game from #1
• 27:27
  seed. So yeah, that's that's huge.
• 27:33
  Go Colts, right? For the shoe.
• 27:39
  So here's some numbers just to never.
• 27:42
  Mind. Here's some numbers just to give
• 27:44
  you guys kind of the formula of how the Colts are doing what
• 27:46
  they're doing. They're tied for the third most
• 27:48
  takeaways in the league. They are tied for the second
• 27:51
  best turnover differential. And on offense, they have the
• 27:54
  number one offense in the league and they are one of three teams
• 27:57
  who have allowed ten or less sacks.
• 28:01
  So on both sides of the ball, they are just they're creating
• 28:04
  turnovers. They're not giving the ball
• 28:05
  away. They're not having, they're not
• 28:08
  having a lot of negative plays. So that's really what the Colts
• 28:11
  are doing just to be as good as they are as they're just not
• 28:14
  creating negative plays on offense and they are creating
• 28:17
  negative plays for other offenses.
• 28:20
  All right, so back to the NFC. So trick or treat the Seattle
• 28:24
  Seahawks. This is going to be a trick for
• 28:26
  me. Don't be afraid of the Seahawks
• 28:29
  fans who listen to this show. I, I think they're fine.
• 28:37
  I think they're a fine team. I think that they are going to
• 28:41
  make the playoffs, but I don't think they unless they have home
• 28:45
  field throughout. I'm not really scared of the
• 28:47
  Seahawks and they're probably not at home field throughout.
• 28:50
  So I think this is a trick for me.
• 28:55
  What do you think, Avery? I'm going to say Treat.
• 29:04
  I think they've been. They've had some good moments.
• 29:07
  I like Jeff Jackson, Smith and Jig but and I think Sam Darnold
• 29:10
  is playing a lot better than I thought he would.
• 29:12
  Agree. That being said, Pete Carroll is
• 29:15
  there and I feel like most of how I thought about the Seahawks
• 29:18
  was kind of tied to him as a coach being there and he is no
• 29:23
  longer there. That being said, they are
• 29:25
  performing a lot better than I thought they would.
• 29:28
  And I just don't like, I feel like the the Bucks are like the
• 29:35
  new Seahawks to a degree where like I feel like the Seahawks
• 29:39
  have always had this kind of like scrappy, like we're going
• 29:41
  to get this win, have a little bit of swagger to it.
• 29:46
  They're never like the most dominant team by like, you know,
• 29:49
  talent wise, it's usually like, oh, we got Russ Wilson and he
• 29:53
  happens to be really good and we've gotten these other guys
• 29:56
  that like weren't prototypical like stars or like elite level
• 30:00
  players that ended up playing really well.
• 30:02
  Like even the Legion of Boom, Like those are all great
• 30:04
  players, but like it's not like it was some assembled super
• 30:09
  team. It was like whether it was
• 30:11
  drafting or whether it was getting the right pieces and
• 30:13
  they just became this in the same defense.
• 30:15
  Obviously that was like a decade ago, but I I think the point
• 30:19
  still stands. Like I just feel like Seattle is
• 30:21
  usually just one of those teams that like, regardless of how
• 30:25
  maybe mediocre their record looks, they can still pull out a
• 30:30
  dub in the postseason. They're like the antithesis of
• 30:34
  the Cowboys when it comes to postseason.
• 30:38
  Yeah, there's a lot to like with the Seahawks, right?
• 30:40
  Like they have a top five scoring offense.
• 30:43
  Their defense is only allowing 19.4 points per game.
• 30:49
  What are you laughing at now? Avery trying to drink anything.
• 30:55
  Dude, this thing is a condensation trap.
• 30:58
  I don't know if you can tell, dude, on Halloween, I'm going to
• 31:01
  be breathing in this and I'm going to do this and like, like
• 31:05
  what's going to come out? It's like a little, it's like a
• 31:13
  like AO2 trap. That's so gross, dude.
• 31:19
  That's so gross. I'm going to have to like cut a
• 31:21
  hole in the end, like a little nipple hole so we can just seep
• 31:25
  out throughout the night. This.
• 31:27
  Is like this is like this is like when we were in band and
• 31:32
  and have to empty the the the spit trap and you just do it all
• 31:36
  over the carpet. You're like I got to.
• 31:38
  Empty this. There it goes.
• 31:40
  And like, oh, there's everyone. Else's open the bottom and blow
• 31:42
  it out and it's disgusting, but everyone's so.
• 31:45
  Nasty. And then you know exactly where
• 31:48
  the smell of the band room, like, emanated from.
• 31:50
  Like, you understood it. You're like, why does this room
• 31:52
  smell so much different than everywhere else?
• 31:53
  Like, Oh yeah, it's just a bunch of spit everywhere.
• 31:56
  Everyone is spitting all over. The place and it's and The thing
• 32:00
  is, it's just a layer of carpet right above like concrete.
• 32:03
  It's nothing like special but you know, whole thing is just
• 32:06
  plastered with just spit anyway. I'm sorry, that was really
• 32:11
  gross. Anyways, Seattle Seahawks are.
• 32:14
  Anyways, there's a lot to like with the Seattle Seahawks right
• 32:17
  there. There's you know they have a top
• 32:19
  five scoring offense. Their defense is only allowing
• 32:21
  19.4 points per game. But there's also a lot to not
• 32:25
  like. If you look at the turnovers,
• 32:27
  they are tied for the second most turnovers in the league
• 32:29
  with 12, they have a -4 turnover differential and they are tied
• 32:34
  for the most fumble giveaways in the league with The Jets and the
• 32:38
  Titans. If you do that in the playoffs,
• 32:41
  it's not going to go well for you because teams will
• 32:43
  capitalize on those turnovers. Just look at for example, and I
• 32:47
  know this wasn't a fumble, but for example, the Bucks and
• 32:49
  Seahawks game. That game was back and forth the
• 32:51
  whole time. Guess who won the game?
• 32:54
  The team that did not turn the ball over when Sam Darnold
• 32:58
  turned the ball over, the Seahawks lost because they gave
• 33:02
  the Buccaneers an extra possession.
• 33:05
  If you do that in the play offs, whether it's an interception or
• 33:07
  whether it's a fumble, if you do that in the play offs, you will
• 33:10
  not win. At least you will not win
• 33:12
  consistently in the play offs if you do that.
• 33:14
  So just for that reason alone, I think the Seahawks are a trick,
• 33:17
  but there is a lot to like there.
• 33:19
  All right, so back to the AFC. So trick or treat the New
• 33:24
  England Patriots. I think that's turning tricks.
• 33:28
  I don't think they're good enough.
• 33:29
  You don't believe in Drake? May your boy.
• 33:33
  If he was the whole team, I would, but he's not.
• 33:38
  No, I just don't think, I don't think they're good enough to
• 33:40
  take on the big boys. I think maybe in a year or two
• 33:43
  maybe if they get the right pieces, but right now I think
• 33:45
  they're they're a first round exit.
• 33:47
  I agree with everything you just said.
• 33:49
  I think that they are good enough to make it and if they
• 33:53
  win the East in the home field game, maybe it's against the
• 33:55
  Bills or it's against the Chiefs, maybe even the Texans
• 33:59
  coming up to New England first round and I don't see them
• 34:01
  winning, winning their first round matchup.
• 34:05
  So trick. Yeah, I'm going to agree with
• 34:07
  you guys. I'm going to say trick and it's
• 34:09
  because, you know, they have a lot of really good numbers, but
• 34:12
  I just feel like we see a lot of really young quarterbacks who
• 34:18
  don't often do well in the playoffs.
• 34:20
  And I know it happens sometimes, like last year you had Jayden
• 34:22
  Daniels, but you when we see really young quarterbacks go
• 34:25
  into the playoffs, I feel like it takes a while before we
• 34:29
  really, really see them get to the point where they're like
• 34:33
  true Super Bowl contenders. And it that's not every time
• 34:38
  because there's some guys Patrick Mahomes, you know, he's
• 34:41
  been there every freaking year until since he was a starter.
• 34:44
  But I don't feel like I'm I don't feel like we're going to
• 34:47
  see that from Drake. May like I feel like that team
• 34:50
  is good, but there's a lot more that they need in order to truly
• 34:54
  get to that point where they can compete with the likes of the
• 34:57
  chiefs and those guys in the playoffs.
• 35:01
  All right, so the last NFC team, the Green Bay Packers, trick or
• 35:06
  treat? They're a trick because they
• 35:08
  have a tie. All right, get out of here.
• 35:12
  They're the number one seed. I'm, I'm very, I'm very, they
• 35:18
  are #1 seed in the NFC right now at 5-1 and one because they have
• 35:25
  a tie. They took Dallas 70 minutes of
• 35:30
  football, scored 40 points and ended up with a tie.
• 35:35
  All right, that is embarrassing. I you don't tie in the play
• 35:40
  offs, Obviously there has to be a winner, but I, I am.
• 35:45
  I don't think they've got enough to do it.
• 35:47
  I don't think the receivers are enough.
• 35:49
  All they have is is Tucker Kraft and his box of Mac and cheese.
• 35:54
  They're not. They're not.
• 35:58
  They don't have a complete enough team.
• 36:00
  Micah has been good but not great this season.
• 36:04
  They don't have enough defense. They don't have a well-rounded
• 36:07
  enough offense. Honestly, I'm a bit surprised
• 36:09
  that they are five and one. Who have they played?
• 36:12
  No. No 5/1 and 1/5, 1:00 and 1:00.
• 36:15
  We don't even count those. If you.
• 36:18
  If you. Tie.
• 36:19
  You should be publicly ridiculed until the next season.
• 36:23
  I just think that's what. I'm doing.
• 36:24
  That's what I'm doing right now. No, I think Will Will's a
• 36:28
  thought leader on this one. I think that any team that ties,
• 36:32
  it's like, what's wrong with you do.
• 36:33
  You love America there. One loss.
• 36:36
  You guys remember who? That's 2 Browns.
• 36:40
  The Browns. Yes, the Browns.
• 36:42
  They tied the Cowboys and lost to the Browns.
• 36:45
  I would not be surprised. It was not necessarily a
• 36:47
  gambling man. They did week one.
• 36:50
  They beat the Lions. OK, good for you.
• 36:53
  Congratulations. They're not beating the Lions
• 36:57
  when they when they play again on Thanksgiving.
• 37:01
  They're not they're not beating the Lions.
• 37:03
  And it's not even going to be close.
• 37:06
  I imagine. I imagine this Packers team
• 37:09
  beats the Panthers next, loses the Eagles, beats the Giants.
• 37:12
  And I mean, they're a win loss, win loss pretty much.
• 37:14
  I mean, it's set up to a win, loss, win, loss for the rest of
• 37:18
  the season. Although the Vikings are bad, so
• 37:20
  they'll probably hit a couple wins in a row there.
• 37:23
  But yes, I don't know. I'm not even on the Packers.
• 37:27
  They're a trick to me. Packers are a trick.
• 37:30
  Also. We need to get rid of ties.
• 37:33
  It upsets me deeply and I don't think it's I don't think it's
• 37:39
  right. I think it's a cop out on it's a
• 37:42
  failure on the leadership of this league.
• 37:46
  Why don't you just cancel the game next time?
• 37:48
  Like we're here to compete and the game.
• 37:51
  Make it a like at the end of the fifth quarter, do like a
• 37:57
  shootout or do like dodgeball with footballs or something
• 38:00
  until like people are out and you just have to like peg them.
• 38:04
  Either way, though, I think it's dumb.
• 38:06
  What are we doing? You heard me.
• 38:13
  You can't tell me that this weird costume.
• 38:17
  We both have the most phallic costumes.
• 38:20
  Like unironically like it wasn't that wasn't the reason.
• 38:23
  I mean, maybe the hot dog was a little more on the nose, but
• 38:27
  this is as on the nose as it gets.
• 38:30
  Just look at that dude. It's not even going out.
• 38:33
  It's it's a bird like you'd think.
• 38:36
  Isn't guru's nose more like this?
• 38:39
  Like a. Yeah.
• 38:52
  Sorry, I almost lost my cool air for a second.
• 38:55
  But yeah, Packer Packers are a trick.
• 38:59
  Learn to win or lose dude. Do 1.
• 39:02
  Or lose with dignity. Or win with pride, but don't tie
• 39:06
  right. We beat the Commies for this
• 39:08
  purpose, and here you are perpetuating that nonsense.
• 39:13
  I'm going to disagree with you guys.
• 39:14
  I'm going to say treat. And the reason is because they
• 39:17
  don't turn them all over. They don't turn the ball over.
• 39:20
  They're one of four teams with less than 5 turnovers all season
• 39:22
  and they don't necessarily create a lot of turnovers
• 39:25
  because you only have a + 1 turnover differential.
• 39:28
  But they don't turn the ball over.
• 39:29
  It's the opposite reason of the Seahawks is because if you turn
• 39:33
  the ball over in the playoffs, you're not going to win.
• 39:35
  There's a good chance that if you turn the ball over in the
• 39:38
  playoffs, you will not win. And if the Packers don't turn
• 39:40
  the ball over, there's a very good chance that they will win
• 39:43
  in the playoffs. So just for that reason, I feel
• 39:46
  like they are a treat and they are a contender because they do
• 39:49
  not turn the ball over. They're not giving those teams
• 39:51
  extra possessions. All right, so that was our last
• 39:55
  NFC team. So our last AFC team.
• 39:58
  Trick or treat the Denver Broncos.
• 40:02
  It's hard not to say Sheree with a beat down, they just put on
• 40:05
  Dallas, but I don't know if they're complete enough, right?
• 40:11
  Like they just had that 33 point fourth quarter big comeback win
• 40:15
  against the. Giants.
• 40:20
  Giants, yes, thank you. And then they just put a beat
• 40:22
  down on Dallas. But I don't think that was now.
• 40:25
  That was from the start. I can't even say it wasn't.
• 40:28
  I mean, they were, Dallas had to yeah, like first play of the
• 40:33
  game, right. But they were at 2710 1/2.
• 40:36
  That's more points than Dallas scored the whole game.
• 40:39
  So I don't know. I, I think they've got a great
• 40:42
  defense. That's that's kind of
• 40:44
  everybody's thing about him. So their defense is so good.
• 40:47
  I just don't think I don't think they're there yet, right.
• 40:49
  Just like The Who do we say just like the Patriots, the Patriots,
• 40:55
  they're a few years away. I think the, the, the Broncos
• 40:59
  are in the same way that they're, they're great.
• 41:02
  They're going to make the playoffs, probably winning the
• 41:04
  AFC West the way it's going if they can keep it up.
• 41:08
  But that kind of stuff, it won't even last.
• 41:11
  When we get into late November after Thanksgiving all the way
• 41:14
  to playoffs, that's when you really see teams either become
• 41:18
  or fizzle out. They either become what they're
• 41:21
  going to be actual contenders or or they fizzle out because
• 41:25
  that's when that's when team is trying to get hot is those last
• 41:28
  like six weeks of the season and I just don't see them going and
• 41:32
  finishing strong with how inconsistent they started.
• 41:37
  Fair, I also think I just see them not making it past like the
• 41:44
  second round I I see them maybe make it getting a victory but
• 41:47
  they just seem too inconsistent. They never really seem in
• 41:50
  control of their destiny. Like, I even the Giants game
• 41:54
  where they pulled off 33 points in the fourth quarter, like so
• 41:58
  much of that was just the Giants imploding.
• 42:02
  It wasn't like the Broncos went off.
• 42:04
  It was like, Giants, what are you doing right now?
• 42:07
  And I feel like so often, even though I love Bonex and I see
• 42:10
  flashes of greatness, but even then there's times where I'm
• 42:13
  like, you're a smart guy. Like, what was the play here?
• 42:17
  Like, what was the plan? And like, sometimes he has that
• 42:21
  the look of someone who's actually just like an elite
• 42:24
  quarterback sometimes, But other times you see them run some
• 42:27
  play. Like some drives I'll watch and
• 42:29
  I'll be like, I have to turn this game off.
• 42:31
  Like, what was the plan? Like what was what was the
• 42:33
  expected result here? It's it, it's like you guys
• 42:36
  wanted to go 3 and out here, like it didn't look like anyone
• 42:39
  cared to move the chains this drive.
• 42:41
  And I don't know what that is. And it kind of pisses me off.
• 42:44
  And I'm kind of glad I didn't pick the Broncos for that
• 42:46
  specific reason, even though that's a small thing.
• 42:48
  But I just don't as of right now.
• 42:51
  I don't like their chances because they just seem to just
• 42:54
  be kind of hot and cold at random.
• 42:58
  Thanks, Katy Perry. Yes, yeah, I agree with you
• 43:03
  guys. I think they are a trick.
• 43:05
  I really do like what kind of what we talked about at the
• 43:07
  beginning of the season. Avery is is there.
• 43:10
  You have a really good offensive line.
• 43:11
  They've allowed the least sacks in the league and they have a
• 43:14
  really good defense. They have the most sacks in the
• 43:16
  league, but I just like you said, like you're saying Avery,
• 43:20
  like they're just too inconsistent, like they they
• 43:23
  seem to not be able to put it all together.
• 43:25
  Like when you have to wait till the fourth quarter to score 33
• 43:28
  points, like you're not going to be able to do that every game,
• 43:31
  right. So like they they have a lot of
• 43:34
  really nice pieces. They have a really good
• 43:36
  offensive line. They have a really good defense,
• 43:38
  But can they be consistent in the playoffs?
• 43:41
  I don't know. So that's why I say that the
• 43:43
  Broncos are a trick. All right?
• 43:46
  So that's what we have for a trick or treat.
• 43:48
  So now we're going to talk about which team with a losing record
• 43:52
  would you be most scared to play.
• 43:55
  And Avery, let's start with you on this one.
• 44:00
  With a losing record 0. Don't take my answer.
• 44:07
  I know it's one of two. Don't do it.
• 44:13
  There's three teams, but I'll go for one that I don't think Will
• 44:19
  is going to talk about the menace the we.
• 44:32
  Are the stupidest people ever? Why are we doing?
• 44:38
  I'm going to go with the Vikings.
• 44:40
  Was that your team? Yeah, no, of course not.
• 44:42
  I would never talk about the Vikings.
• 44:44
  You think I know? OK.
• 44:45
  That's OK. That's OK, you think?
• 44:46
  That was a big part. One, yeah, I'm going to go with
• 44:51
  them just because I feel like they have kind of like the the
• 44:57
  Broncos. They've got a little bit of that
• 44:59
  hot and cold bipolar kind of play style.
• 45:03
  But when they get it together, I think they could be scary.
• 45:08
  I mean, right now the quarterback play looks suspect,
• 45:12
  but I still think they're a team that I wouldn't want to play on
• 45:15
  a good day for them. OK, well I'm going to go next
• 45:18
  because I want the possibility of taking Will's team.
• 45:21
  Oh, I think I. Don't.
• 45:22
  Don't tell it you're going to tell it you're OK.
• 45:25
  You're going to do it. The team with the losing record
• 45:28
  that I think would be the most scary to play right now is the
• 45:32
  Baltimore Ravens. I knew it.
• 45:40
  Is that really who you're going to pick?
• 45:41
  Will. Yes, who's going to pick?
• 45:44
  Of course it is. All right, so you go first.
• 45:47
  That way I can say Ditto. All right, so the Ravens are two
• 45:50
  and five right now, but somehow they still have a chance to win
• 45:53
  their division because they're only two games behind because
• 45:56
  the Steelers have lost their last two games and they're
• 45:59
  getting Lamar Jackson back. Getting Lamar Jackson back and
• 46:03
  being in the position they are gives the Baltimore Ravens a
• 46:06
  chance and it makes them a scary team.
• 46:08
  I know that they started off 1 and 3 when they have Lamar
• 46:10
  Jackson, but in three of their first four games, they scored
• 46:14
  thirty points. When you score 30 points, you
• 46:17
  have a decent chance to win. Now that I know that defense was
• 46:20
  bad, it was bad. But at this point, the Baltimore
• 46:24
  Ravens right now are what the Cincinnati Bengals were last
• 46:27
  year. They're a team that started off
• 46:29
  bad. They made a lot of mistakes, and
• 46:31
  they know that they have no room to make mistakes moving forward
• 46:34
  if they want to make the playoffs.
• 46:35
  And so I feel like that makes them a very dangerous team.
• 46:42
  After empty it's dude, it's it's dripping on to me.
• 46:45
  Dude this is the worst. At this point just stop trying
• 46:49
  to drink, I can smell it. Hi Will, why did you pick the
• 46:56
  raids? Are you going to keep any of
• 47:00
  this material? Are we going to cut the whole
• 47:02
  episode? On Patreon you have to pay for.
• 47:06
  Those might have to. Any whom I picked the Baltimore
• 47:11
  Ravens for most of the reasons you just said Lamar Jackson's
• 47:15
  coming back and that's the biggest piece.
• 47:16
  I was shocked when he didn't come back.
• 47:19
  I like you said, AFC North is still up for grabs.
• 47:23
  There's 10 games left, right? 12345678910 yeah, 10 games left
• 47:33
  in the season I can count. And they don't have that bad of
• 47:36
  a schedule. They've got the Dolphins,
• 47:40
  Vikings, Browns, Browns once, Bengals twice, Jets are in
• 47:45
  there, Steelers twice. I'm at this team.
• 47:49
  Very winnable. They're getting healthy right
• 47:52
  now. Yeah, they're they're getting
• 47:53
  healthy at the right time. And maybe that had to do with
• 47:58
  with them. That's how I started it.
• 48:03
  It's not surprising. We haven't seen it in so long
• 48:07
  though. You're not looking from our end.
• 48:14
  Top of the Weiner to you. Anybody.
• 48:18
  Anybody who's listening to this episode, you, you should
• 48:21
  probably just watch it. OK I know whatever you said not
• 48:24
  to last week but if if you're listening to this episode just
• 48:27
  go watch it on YouTube it it would be much better.
• 48:29
  I feel like my face is in prison dude.
• 48:35
  Anyway, the Ravens are getting healthy right now at the right
• 48:38
  time, coming to a good stretch of their season.
• 48:41
  All of their hard games are kind of out of the way.
• 48:44
  And I'm sure Steelers fans, Packers fan, maybe the Patriots
• 48:46
  are going to take that offensively, I don't really
• 48:49
  care. I I think that that the Ravens
• 48:53
  should have been the best team in the felt this year and they
• 48:55
  just haven't been. But they've had time to figure
• 48:58
  it out. Like I said earlier, they got
• 49:00
  Lamar Light and they're trying to put the offense back to they
• 49:04
  had to run a completely different offense with Cooper
• 49:06
  Rush. I don't know why they didn't
• 49:08
  play Tyler Hunley to begin with. He's been in the system for
• 49:11
  years now. He knows what's going on.
• 49:13
  And so getting him back in there and the offense back to the way
• 49:16
  it was. I mean, this this team was one
• 49:18
  play away from going to the Super Bowl last year.
• 49:21
  Just Mark Andrews had a bit of the drops and and and couldn't
• 49:24
  hold on and that that's going to happen.
• 49:26
  Whatever. Twice in a row.
• 49:28
  Yeah, not great. Not what we wish would have
• 49:30
  happened. We want to see the Chiefs back
• 49:32
  in there, but but they're going to put together and like I said
• 49:35
  earlier, this end of November, December, now early January is
• 49:40
  when teams are trying to get hot.
• 49:41
  And then with Lamar coming back in with Derrick Henry having a
• 49:45
  good game last week and setting a good tone for everything
• 49:49
  moving forward and save Flowers. I I don't understand why he's
• 49:55
  been on the Ravens for a while. He's been good for a long time,
• 49:58
  but he is going to come out of the shell and he's apparently
• 50:01
  unguardable now. So Lamar having a good target
• 50:05
  right there to go along with the running game with him and
• 50:08
  Derrick Henry I his Raven seems going to be scary once they get
• 50:12
  that train actually rolling. Yeah, and I know that Derrick
• 50:16
  Henry hasn't had the best season, but let's not forget
• 50:19
  that dude is still massive. When that guy has the ball, he
• 50:24
  can like, he can still run over people.
• 50:27
  Like he's still huge, He's still scary.
• 50:30
  So if you can just hold on to the ball, like with those, the
• 50:33
  problems he had earlier in the season, like if he can just hold
• 50:35
  on to the ball, the Ravens are going to be just fine.
• 50:39
  All right, well, that's all we have for today's episode.
• 50:43
  Thank you for tuning into our Halloween episode.
• 50:49
  I'm sorry, that was unbecoming. I want.
• 50:52
  I want. To keep it going just a little
• 50:53
  bit longer. Just for you anyways.
• 50:58
  I mean no. Jokes about this, but I have got
• 51:00
  to get this Weiner off. It is way too hot in here.
• 51:04
  All right. All right, I'll wrap it up.
• 51:06
  I'll wrap it up with this. So this weekend we are going to
• 51:09
  Vegas for the Raiders and Jaguars game.
• 51:12
  So we're going to be at the game and that's going to be a lot of
• 51:17
  fun. So next week we'll do a little
• 51:19
  recap of that. Avery will not be joining us
• 51:21
  next week because he will still be in Vegas.
• 51:23
  So it'll be just Will and I. But next week is the trade
• 51:27
  deadline, actually on the day that we record.
• 51:29
  So on Tuesday of next week is the trade deadline.
• 51:32
  So Will and I are going to be grading the trades that happened
• 51:35
  before the trade deadline. So stay tuned for that next
• 51:38
  week. And as always, don't forget to
• 51:41
  keep your balls played with. We'll see you next time.
• 51:44
  Bye now y'all. Also, Mark Davis's haircut still
• 51:46
  sucks.
