  SPEAKER_00: Okay, listen, man.
• 0:57
  SPEAKER_00: I we have been dying on all of these memes that are going around about Caleb Williams.
• 1:03
  SPEAKER_00: Just how crazy he's been.
• 1:05
  SPEAKER_00: Um okay, listen.
• 1:07
  SPEAKER_00: So everybody, two Sundays ago against the Vikings, Caleb Williams pulls his hamstring on a scramble.
• 1:12
  SPEAKER_00: Right?
• 1:13
  SPEAKER_00: There's no contact, no one touched him.
• 1:15
  SPEAKER_00: And so usually when you got a non-contact injury, you think it's really serious, like a severe, severe Achilles tear, tear your ACL.
• 1:22
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 1:23
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, but nobody touched him.
• 1:24
  SPEAKER_00: So he hits the turf, lets out a scream, rolling over, gets helped off by two trainers, doesn't even move his leg that he has the the the hamstring pull on, and spends a few minutes in the injury tent.
• 1:37
  SPEAKER_00: Then what does he do?
• 1:38
  SPEAKER_00: He's got a towel over his head.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_00: They literally load him up on a stretcher onto the onto the cart, and then they ride off on a cart as he's got his towel over his head, and that and the fans are cheering because everybody in the stands is assuming that he's got some massive, massive injury.
• 1:55
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 1:55
  SPEAKER_00: It does not even be revealed that he's only got a hamstring tear yet.
• 1:59
  SPEAKER_00: Takes the towel off like he is just celebrating like his gladiator moment, right?
• 2:04
  SPEAKER_00: Like he's got 70,000 Chicago Bear fans just cheering him on.
• 2:07
  SPEAKER_00: He's giving him a crowd a whole thumbs up.
• 2:10
  SPEAKER_00: He's been crying.
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_00: The internet lost its absolute mind when we found out that he's only got a very, very minor, minor hamstring pull.
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_00: Not a tear, a pull.
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_00: So before we get to the real deal tough guys, buddy, we have just got to address this.
• 2:25
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_00: Absolutely got to.
• 2:27
  SPEAKER_00: First off, the scream.
• 2:29
  SPEAKER_00: Okay?
• 2:29
  SPEAKER_00: Now, listen, I've heard quieter screams on a haunted house tour.
• 2:34
  SPEAKER_00: You know what I'm saying?
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 2:35
  SPEAKER_00: Like this old-field grass.
• 2:38
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
• 2:38
  SPEAKER_00: It just it can't be that.
• 2:40
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, w w what did you think when you saw him rolling around screaming?
• 2:43
  SPEAKER_02: Honestly, um, I thought that it was gonna be way worse than it actually was, and I thought that like it was it was very overreacting and you know, you shouldn't have acted like that.
• 2:54
  SPEAKER_02: Well, I think it's com it's kind of valid, but not kind of valid, but I think he did overreact a little bit and you know, I if it's only a handshake pole, then it should be that bad.
• 3:03
  SPEAKER_02: But in his defense, when you really think about it, if when they don't have Caleb Williams, like Caleb Williams is the heart of Chicago.
• 3:10
  SPEAKER_02: Besides Pete like him and PCA, like if they weren't there, then Chicago's not even like mentioned in any sports.
• 3:17
  SPEAKER_02: PCA.
• 3:17
  SPEAKER_00: PCA help our audience who's PCA.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_02: Peter Armstrong, he's the he's gonna be the NL MVP for the Chicago Cubs right now.
• 3:24
  SPEAKER_02: There you go, baseball player.
• 3:26
  SPEAKER_02: So alright.
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_00: I mean that's that's valid.
• 3:28
  SPEAKER_00: Look at you with your good heart.
• 3:29
  SPEAKER_02: No, yeah, well like if Caleb Williams, like, if he if he gets injured and it's like actually that bad, then you know Chicago's like the football fan, like Chicago Bears fan base is just soap super distraught, sad and everything, and it just I mean it feels over for them, you know?
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_02: It's kind of that thing.
• 3:45
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, okay.
• 3:46
  SPEAKER_02: No, that's I mean th that's good.
• 3:48
  SPEAKER_02: That's and also like when you got your hamstring like I know you got your hamstring pull.
• 3:53
  SPEAKER_02: Um You're talking about mine?
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yours.
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_02: Did you know like how bad it was?
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_02: Uh like like when it happened?
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_00: I knew it was really bad because I've had plenty of hamstring pulls because I throughout my athlete years I pulled plenty of hamstrings.
• 4:04
  SPEAKER_00: So when you when I hold on, but when I to answer your question though, when this one happened and I tore it, yeah, I knew it was serious.
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but like when you pulled your hamstring, like did like did you think it could have been worse?
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_02: Like was there any like with your first hamstring pull?
• 4:16
  SPEAKER_02: Did you think that it could have been like like back in my high school sport years?
• 4:19
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, like did you know like what it was or what when I Yeah, I mean I knew it was minor.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_00: I knew it wasn't a big deal.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_00: It was like, okay, I'm gonna probably gonna have to ice this and then probably do some stretches, but I should be okay in like at least a week.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_02: Well, I don't know if Caleb's I don't know.
• 4:33
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but Caleb also he might not even know that it was gonna be a pull.
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_02: Like he might have been thinking that it was like some sort of ACL injury or something.
• 4:41
  SPEAKER_02: But any, but that's he's never he's never been injured, you know?
• 4:45
  SPEAKER_02: So like how would he have known?
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_02: And he it needs a heart and everything.
• 4:49
  SPEAKER_02: Like I totally get like it's I I I totally agree that he overreact he overreacted and everything, but I love I thought it was funny.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_00: I love how you were defending him so much because your your sports fanhood just loves the guy and is so hopeful that he does because I like Caleb.

  SPEAKER_02: I and I look at that.
• 5:08
  SPEAKER_02: I'm not def I'm literally I'm literally just saying that he he might not have known, and all I'm saying that like we don't yeah, I don't like if I was in his mind and he he know because he knows he's the heart, right?
• 5:18
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah and he knows that he's all of this, so if he knows so if he has something, then like obviously he's gonna get worried, but it was overreacted for sure.
• 5:25
  SPEAKER_02: It definitely was.
• 5:26
  SPEAKER_02: And it was really funny to me is that.
• 5:28
  SPEAKER_00: I respect the heck out of out of you giving him the benefit of the doubt on this, but okay, what what locker room, right?
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 5:37
  SPEAKER_00: The whole fans, all of his teammates see him writhing in pain, screaming, getting carted off.

  SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
• 6:12
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.

  SPEAKER_00: We should I should show that up, show it, and and show it to you.
• 10:22
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, but every pitch, you gotta push off that bad ankle.

• 10:28
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.

  SPEAKER_00: On one of one of her prior jumps.
• 10:50
  SPEAKER_00: But she knows that she's got to stick the next vault um in order for her team to secure winning gold.
• 10:55
  SPEAKER_00: If she doesn't, then they don't win.
• 10:57
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 10:57
  SPEAKER_00: And if they gotta forfeit her, you can't just replace it.
• 11:00
  SPEAKER_00: So she's gotta perform.
• 11:01
  SPEAKER_00: So she runs out there on two ligaments, she sticks the vault landing on one foot to clinch the team gold.
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_00: Two torn ligaments.
• 11:08
  SPEAKER_00: Try walking to the fridge on that.

  SPEAKER_00: So um, number three, they get more and more intense.
• 11:17
  SPEAKER_00: Willis Reed, 1970 NBA Finals, game seven for the Knicks.

  SPEAKER_00: The crowd goes crazy.

  SPEAKER_00: Plays the entire game with a torn thigh muscle.
• 11:44
  SPEAKER_02: That's insane.
• 11:45
  SPEAKER_00: That's like your leg being, you know, held together by one piece of Wes Spaghetti.
• 11:49
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 11:50
  SPEAKER_00: Like that's just crazy.
• 11:51

• 12:08
  SPEAKER_00: That was sudden death, right?
• 12:10
  SPEAKER_00: Well, I don't think Tiger Woods should be number two on the list.
• 12:12
  SPEAKER_00: What do you mean?
• 12:14
  SPEAKER_00: Does that sound like number one?
• 12:16
  SPEAKER_00: Dude, okay, but every golf swing, that twists the front your front knee like a wet towel, dude.
• 12:20
  SPEAKER_00: You did it with no ACL and a broken leg.
• 12:23
  SPEAKER_00: They have to play back.
• 12:26
  SPEAKER_00: But ever every time you hit, you know how many times you gotta swing and stroke?
• 12:29
  SPEAKER_00: And if your knee, your knee is the the the the knee that he had the torn ACL and broken bones is the one that does all the twisting in your golf swing.
• 12:36
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 12:37
  SPEAKER_00: I completely disagree.
• 12:38
  SPEAKER_00: I think excruciating.

  SPEAKER_00: Man, most of us need a nap after mini golf, and this guy played 91 holes.
• 12:45
  SPEAKER_02: Well yeah, but these other guys have to run or like run around the like for a full 90 minutes and play then like after a swing, then he shut he just gets the walk and like sit on golf.
• 12:54
  SPEAKER_02: You just don't like Tiger Woods.
• 12:55
  SPEAKER_02: I like Well, I I have nothing against Tiger Woods.
• 12:59
  SPEAKER_02: I respect him, but I just don't, it's golf.
• 13:01
  SPEAKER_00: Alright, last one.
• 13:02
  SPEAKER_00: Number one.
• 13:03
  SPEAKER_00: You and I will both agree to this.
• 13:04
  SPEAKER_00: Dude, this is Kobe Bryant.
• 13:06
  SPEAKER_00: Unquestioned number one.
• 13:07
  SPEAKER_00: April 12th.
• 13:08
  SPEAKER_02: Where's MJ's iconic flu game?
• 13:10
  SPEAKER_02: That's the most iconic tough guy moment ever.
• 13:12
  SPEAKER_00: No, that's not that's just the flu game.
• 13:13
  SPEAKER_00: I played on the flu.
• 13:14
  SPEAKER_00: I respect the heck that he did that.
• 13:15
  SPEAKER_00: I'm not diminishing that because it's poisoning.
• 13:17
  SPEAKER_00: That does not, yeah, but there's no pain.
• 13:19
  SPEAKER_00: It's just you're sick and dehydrated.
• 13:21
  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 13:21
  SPEAKER_00: No, no.
• 13:22
  SPEAKER_00: Sorry, I disagree through a lot of things.
• 13:23
  SPEAKER_00: He's not even in the top 10.
• 13:24
  SPEAKER_00: This lesson in number he's not in my top.
• 13:26
  SPEAKER_00: At least put him in the top 10.
• 13:27
  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 13:27
  SPEAKER_00: That's fair.
• 13:28
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe if there's a top 20 list, we can expand it to include old MJ's flu game.
• 13:31
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 13:32
  SPEAKER_00: I don't disagree with that.
• 13:33
  SPEAKER_00: But number one unquestioned though, Kobe freaking Bryant.
• 13:36
  SPEAKER_00: April 12th, 2013, against the Warriors.
• 13:39
  SPEAKER_00: Okay?
• 13:40
  SPEAKER_00: Here's what happened.
• 13:40
  SPEAKER_01: He hit a free throw and then walked off.
• 13:42
  SPEAKER_01: He didn't even play the game.
• 13:44
  SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
• 13:44
  SPEAKER_01: That's why Willis Reed should be number one.
• 13:46
  SPEAKER_01: Nah, nah, here it is.
• 13:47
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, so Kobe tears his Achilles in the game with the Lakers fighting still for a playoff spot.
• 13:52
  SPEAKER_01: He shoots one free throw.
• 13:54
  SPEAKER_00: He stayed in and shoots his own free throws.
• 13:57
  SPEAKER_00: He makes both.
• 13:58
  SPEAKER_00: And then walks out.
• 13:59
  SPEAKER_00: And then he walks off under his own power.
• 14:01
  SPEAKER_00: Okay?
• 14:04
  SPEAKER_00: We're comparing this to Caleb, dude.
• 14:05
  SPEAKER_00: Like Caleb falls down, screams, and all that, gets carted off because of a hamstring pull.
• 14:12
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 14:13
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 14:13
  SPEAKER_00: Kobe tears his freaking Achilles, which is one of the most painful injuries, according to what everyone says.
• 14:19
  SPEAKER_00: Still hits the free throws and walks off under his own power.
• 14:22
  SPEAKER_00: Right?
• 14:23
  SPEAKER_00: Everybody knows that play.
• 14:24
  SPEAKER_00: But yeah.
• 14:25
  SPEAKER_00: I just I just love it.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 14:28
  SPEAKER_00: I just love it.
• 14:28
  SPEAKER_00: Honorable mention.
• 14:30
  SPEAKER_00: Uh we don't need to get into the into Jordan, just the Jordan fluid game.
• 14:33
  SPEAKER_00: Well, the the uh let's let's just make sure that we hit the anti-honorable mention.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_00: Paul Pierce, 2008 finals.
• 14:38
  SPEAKER_00: So he left the game in a wheelchair.
• 14:41
  SPEAKER_00: In a wheelchair.
• 14:42
  SPEAKER_00: Wow.
• 14:43
  SPEAKER_00: Came back minutes later, um, just like he'd just been to the bathroom or something.
• 14:48
  SPEAKER_00: Caleb took the car, Paul Pierce took the wheelchair, both dishonorable because they both ended up not having very very dramatic injuries, but they had dramatic exits, and they're both on the ballot, man.
• 15:00
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 15:00
  SPEAKER_00: So dishonorable there, Briggs.
• 15:02
  SPEAKER_00: I appreciate you trying to take the high road and make and come to Caleb's defense.
• 15:07
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 15:07
  SPEAKER_00: But man, I gotta tell you.
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_02: I agree with him.
• 15:10
  SPEAKER_02: I'm just saying, like, just put a little bit of defense on Caleb's Williams name, you know.
• 15:13
  SPEAKER_02: I respect that.
• 15:14
  SPEAKER_02: I respect that.
• 15:15
  SPEAKER_00: All right, buddy, nice.
• 15:16
  SPEAKER_00: All right, so let's get action football card.
• 15:17
  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 15:18
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 15:26
  SPEAKER_00: Can you go to Texas first?
• 15:28
  SPEAKER_00: Yes, sir.
• 15:28
  SPEAKER_00: Texas, baby.
• 15:29
  SPEAKER_00: Alright, buddy.
• 15:30
  SPEAKER_00: Hit us with the Texas content.
• 15:31
  SPEAKER_00: Where are we at?
• 15:31
  SPEAKER_02: Alright, so here's my thing with Texas.
• 15:33
  SPEAKER_02: And I know we talk about Texas a lot, but obviously, since we're the map, so since we're massive.
• 15:37
  SPEAKER_02: They are the number one team in the country.
• 15:39
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so we're gonna get to all the call trial stuff later in the late later, but um here's my thing with Texas.
• 15:45
  SPEAKER_02: They have the the number one defense in the country, in my opinion.
• 15:47
  SPEAKER_02: Tech Tennessee's explosive, phase on Brandon can move, they have explosive receivers, um, they can spread it out, and we held them to here, let's see, they we held them to I think minus 200 yards total.
• 16:00
  SPEAKER_02: Maybe actually, I don't know.
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know the exact style and look that up, but they we we had 10 sacks.
• 16:05
  SPEAKER_02: Colin Simmons had five.
• 16:07
  SPEAKER_02: Five.
• 16:07
  SPEAKER_02: Colin Simmons was an absolute dog, but and then we have we have we have the talent, you know, we have pieces everywhere, and and it's you know, obviously part of the 112 million dollar roster that we have, but we have the talent everywhere.
• 16:23
  SPEAKER_02: But the problem is Arch Manning isn't he isn't executing the way we need him to.
• 16:28
  SPEAKER_02: And but our state master in the Tennessee game.
• 16:30
  SPEAKER_02: So I'm watching the Tennessee game, and my thought is is this C Sarkeesian?
• 16:35
  SPEAKER_02: Because he's oh he's always been known as this just this offensive mastermind, like Lincoln Raleigh, Sean McVay, Nicole Shane, all that kind of thing, and Ben Johnson, Clint Kuby, just just the just an excellent offensive mind, right?
• 16:49
  SPEAKER_02: And I was thinking about it like and I was thinking about it, where is the product, you know?
• 16:53
  SPEAKER_02: Like the past two seasons I've seen nothing.
• 16:55
  SPEAKER_02: I've seen our I've seen we struggle, I've seen us miss the playoffs when the but when the two years before, 2023, 2024, we make both playoffs, right?
• 17:03
  SPEAKER_02: And we make the semifinals of both years, right?
• 17:06
  SPEAKER_02: I almost think but but no, but I have some numbers on this.
• 17:08
  SPEAKER_02: Hold on.
• 17:09
  SPEAKER_02: Well, I almost think it's the past three seasons, but keep going.
• 17:12
  SPEAKER_02: Well, yeah, but um, so here 2023 tw to tw the twenty twenty-three season, we were top ten offense in the whole nation, four hundred and seven point five yards per game, that is number seven in FPS in 2023, 35.8 points per game, that's number 15.
• 17:27
  SPEAKER_02: So we had a top 10 offense that year, right?
• 17:29
  SPEAKER_02: We had Quinn Earl, Xavier Worthy, Adonai Mitchell, Jonathan Brooks, and you know, Quinn just looked, I mean, I knew what I was getting with Quinn, you know?
• 17:38
  SPEAKER_02: 2024.
• 17:39
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, yeah, 2024, same thing.
• 17:41
  SPEAKER_02: 408 yards per I mean, yeah, 2024, 437.5 yards per game or 15, 33 points per game, that's number 29.
• 17:49
  SPEAKER_02: So we had uh about a top 15 offense, right?
• 17:52
  SPEAKER_02: The next year, so that's what Quinn years we go to the cost of all the playoffs semi-finals, right?
• 17:56
  SPEAKER_02: We start all how staying that epic game, and then it goes to 2025 with Arch Manning.
• 18:00
  SPEAKER_02: Then it's and then it's a drop-off 388.5 yards per game, number 60 in FPS, 30.5 points per game is just forward.
• 18:08
  SPEAKER_02: So that's a 50 ranked offense right there.
• 18:10
  SPEAKER_02: That's with Texas's money and all that roster that we and all that roster moves that we made with NIO and everything.
• 18:16
  SPEAKER_02: And then 2026 this year.
• 18:18
  SPEAKER_02: Our offense has not been good.
• 18:20
  SPEAKER_02: We have been very subpar.
• 18:21
  SPEAKER_02: And I know the fourth quarter against Ohio State was really good, and and I thought Texas overall offensively that first game, the first two games of the week were very, very good.
• 18:30
  SPEAKER_02: And just that Ohio State was just weird the first two like two quarters.
• 18:34
  SPEAKER_02: But just against UTSA and Tennessee, I'm not seeing anything from Sark.
• 18:39
  SPEAKER_02: Like I'm seeing weird offense, weird offensive line, we can't blow up, we can't run.
• 18:43
  SPEAKER_02: Archbang's missing these just freaking easy throws.
• 18:46
  SPEAKER_02: He's looking he's looking just weird, and I just I don't know, I just need to see something.
• 18:50
  SPEAKER_02: But my thing is I don't think it's Steve's I I don't know if it's there's just a lot of question marks for me, right?
• 18:57
  SPEAKER_02: Because when Steve Sarkeesian was there with quit with with what when Steve Sarkeesian was there with Quinn Yours, I mean the top ten offense, you know, every year, and they went to the Cot 12 semi-finals, right?
• 19:08
  SPEAKER_02: This year last year was weird.
• 19:10
  SPEAKER_02: I don't I don't think we had a deep team.
• 19:12
  SPEAKER_02: We we looked weird on the defense and it was just everything was just weird that year.
• 19:15
  SPEAKER_02: And then so this year we spent all this money, we get Kim Coleman, Ryan Wingers returning, and we get Hollywood spent as a really brown.
• 19:21
  SPEAKER_02: So this year I needed to see something, and I did against Ohio Son.
• 19:24
  SPEAKER_02: So okay, yeah.
• 19:25
  SPEAKER_02: So we're just gonna go to UTSA, have a 400 yard game.
• 19:28
  SPEAKER_02: He had a s he had a 56 rating, I think.
• 19:31
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, exactly.
• 19:34
  SPEAKER_02: I'm like, okay, what's happening?
• 19:36
  SPEAKER_02: And so then Tennessee's like then I'm like, okay, it's probably fine, it's just probably just the Ohio State game layoff.
• 19:41
  SPEAKER_02: So then you go to Tennessee, right?
• 19:43
  SPEAKER_02: He goes for 200 yards and one interception and about a 60% completion percentage, and he's just missing all these throws.
• 19:51
  SPEAKER_02: And I'm just like, Yeah, not great.
• 19:53
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know what to think right now.
• 19:54
  SPEAKER_02: You know, there's a lot of question marks.
• 19:56
  SPEAKER_02: I just I just don't want to think about this this Texas team.
• 19:58
  SPEAKER_02: I but I do know what I'm getting with the defense.
• 20:00
  SPEAKER_02: I do know what I'm getting.
• 20:02
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I just I know what I'm getting, and I just don't know what I'm gonna see from Arch Manning week in, week out.
• 20:07
  SPEAKER_02: But if Arch Manning can click, then this team is I think their ceiling is the highest in all of college football.
• 20:12
  SPEAKER_02: But I think they can also be fall just fall down significantly just because of just because of Arch Manning.
• 20:18
  SPEAKER_02: Because I don't know if Texas can play that kind of defense every single week.
• 20:22
  SPEAKER_02: So that's so that are my so that's my thoughts.
• 20:25
  SPEAKER_00: You know what's interesting about that too is of all of all the SEC teams that played on the road this weekend against other SEC teams, Texas is the only one that won.
• 20:35
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 20:35
  SPEAKER_00: So there's that's something.
• 20:37
  SPEAKER_02: So I'm on the I'm not I'm don't mean I'm sorry for all Texas fans out there, but I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
• 20:41
  SPEAKER_00: No, you're being real.
• 20:42
  SPEAKER_02: But I I just have to be real with myself.
• 20:43
  SPEAKER_02: I can't have that, I can't have the benefit of the doubt anymore when I'm when it every single week, I don't know what I'm expecting from Archman from the past two years, you know?
• 20:51
  SPEAKER_02: And I don't know if it's Sarkeesian, I don't know if it's Archmaning, I don't I just I I don't know.
• 20:55
  SPEAKER_00: Well, here's the case for Sarkeesian against him, right?
• 20:58
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 20:59
  SPEAKER_00: Based on uh cause because I was looking up a couple things too.
• 21:02
  SPEAKER_00: Um the amount of penalties that we have is is like we're concerning.
• 21:08
  SPEAKER_02: It's like we're the dumbest college, it's like we're the dumbest number one team in all football.
• 21:12
  SPEAKER_00: And and Urani's blood runs burnt orange and BYU blue, but burnt orange here, right?
• 21:18
  SPEAKER_00: But we gotta be real though, they are the dumbest team in college football.
• 21:21
  SPEAKER_02: And here's what the dumbest team in all college football.
• 21:24
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, there's probably like some They're pretty darn close.
• 21:26
  SPEAKER_02: There's probably some old Dominion team or like Western Kentucky State team.
• 21:30
  SPEAKER_02: That's stupid.
• 21:31
  SPEAKER_02: But here's the stats.
• 21:32
  SPEAKER_00: Here's the stats.
• 21:32
  SPEAKER_00: Over the past three years, the official stats, they ranked 90th or worse in the past three seasons of all college football teams in the FBS divisions.
• 21:42
  SPEAKER_00: There's like 135 teams or whatever there is, and we ranked our best ranking was like is 90th.
• 21:48
  SPEAKER_02: I don't think it would be a problem if we just see the thing with penalties are a coaching issue.
• 21:53
  SPEAKER_02: No, I know.
• 21:54
  SPEAKER_02: I and I I totally get that.
• 21:55
  SPEAKER_02: And what I see from Texas a lot is a lot like USC, where they're they just look like Like you know, the soft you know, the sophomore loose, kind of like the old like I want to see more just solid, just more just just everything just needs to click, you know.
• 22:09
  SPEAKER_00: Solid, stable.
• 22:09
  SPEAKER_02: But I'm just seeing a a looser and a kind of more like calm almost in C.
• 22:13
  SPEAKER_02: Sarkeesian.
• 22:14
  SPEAKER_02: Like I don't really see him yelling at his guys, I don't see him getting all fired up.
• 22:17
  SPEAKER_02: I see that with Will Muschamp, but I don't see that anything with the offense.
• 22:20
  SPEAKER_02: Like I don't I'm not seeing like yelling and getting all fired up like they should like it should be, because that's in Texas, like yeah, you know, or hard country Texas football, you know?
• 22:29
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 22:30
  SPEAKER_02: And I'm not seeing that.
• 22:31
  SPEAKER_02: And I I need to see it.
• 22:33
  SPEAKER_02: I like that you bring that up.
• 22:34
  SPEAKER_02: I'm getting I'm getting so impatient with Texas.
• 22:36
  SPEAKER_02: I need I need to see something.
• 22:38
  SPEAKER_00: I like that you bring that up because it's the whole toughness question.
• 22:40
  SPEAKER_00: In fact, there were some reporters that were asking Steve Sarkeesian about you know the reputation that Texas is kind of soft or whatever.
• 22:46
  SPEAKER_00: Now here's the thing.
• 22:47
  SPEAKER_00: Um I think you can make an argument that they're tough and they're soft.
• 22:50
  SPEAKER_00: Tough with Muel Muschamp and his defense.
• 22:52
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, how do you have you can't have 10 sacks against that Tennessee offensive line?
• 22:56
  SPEAKER_00: No, their defense is scary.
• 22:57
  SPEAKER_00: Defense is scary, defense is tough, offense soft as butter.
• 23:02
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 23:02
  SPEAKER_00: How do we have those massive, massive humans on our offensive line, but we still can't push our blocks off and get any type of depth?
• 23:09
  SPEAKER_02: See, that's the thing.
• 23:09
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
• 23:10
  SPEAKER_02: Like, I don't know what's happening.
• 23:11
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, I know there are their offens Who's your offensive line coach again?
• 23:16
  SPEAKER_02: Uh um shoot, Pete.
• 23:19
  SPEAKER_02: No, not Pete.
• 23:19
  SPEAKER_02: Kyle uh Kyle Flood.
• 23:21
  SPEAKER_02: Kyle Flood.
• 23:21
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, we need to get him out.
• 23:22
  SPEAKER_02: I don't I haven't seen a good offensive line in Texas in four years, so right.
• 23:26
  SPEAKER_00: And we've had studs.
• 23:27
  SPEAKER_02: We've had Orlando, no, not Orlando.
• 23:29
  SPEAKER_02: We've had um Frick, what was his name?
• 23:31
  SPEAKER_02: He was the first round.
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_02: Oh yeah.
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_00: Um oh man.
• 23:34
  SPEAKER_00: Shoot, his name's not coming to me.
• 23:35
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, it's not coming to me either.
• 23:36
  SPEAKER_00: But we got Trevor Goosby, first team All American this year.
• 23:40
  SPEAKER_02: And I don't know, we got Cam Coleman, and he's a stud.
• 23:42
  SPEAKER_02: We got Ryan Weigo, we got we got two stud we got two studded running backs, and I know Hollywood Smothers wasn't there last week, so that might have been a play to factor, but I don't know.
• 23:51
  SPEAKER_02: That like just for me, Texas is super off and just super weird overall.
• 23:55
  SPEAKER_00: Well, on the running backs, that's a good point, because if you think about it, so Raleigh Brown came from was it Arizona State, and then Hollywood Smithers came from NC State.
• 24:03
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 24:04
  SPEAKER_00: And if you look at their their running numbers when they were with those teams, way better than even with Texas.
• 24:10
  SPEAKER_00: And our offensive line costs way more than those schools.
• 24:12
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but uh well, yeah, but they also I mean, it's also the SEC.
• 24:15
  SPEAKER_02: Like we played Ohio State, we and we played Tennessee.
• 24:18
  SPEAKER_02: And Tennessee's defense looked good.
• 24:19
  SPEAKER_02: They looked fiery, they've had f I think they had five sacks.
• 24:22
  SPEAKER_02: Five or six sacks.
• 24:23
  SPEAKER_02: That is a good point, and that is a hopeful thing.
• 24:24
  SPEAKER_02: And we also played uh in front of the eighth largest stadium in the world in front of uh.
• 24:31
  SPEAKER_00: You bring up all good points, and you're doing a good job at looking on the bright side, but even still, should we not have dominated more in the run game even against UTSA?
• 24:37
  SPEAKER_02: Well, I'm looking on the bright side, but I'm also like dogging on Texas, like I'm seeing not so much inconsistency.
• 24:42
  SPEAKER_00: I'm saying it's not like we ran the ball much better against Texas State and UTSA.
• 24:45
  SPEAKER_00: We should have been rolling those guys, and we still didn't.
• 24:48
  SPEAKER_00: You know?
• 24:48
  SPEAKER_02: So I think we did run really well against Ohio State, which I which I was happy about.
• 24:53
  SPEAKER_02: I just want to see, just like you said, I want to see.
• 24:55
  SPEAKER_02: I just want to see a fourth quarter Ohio State game throughout the whole game.
• 24:58
  SPEAKER_02: Clean, solid football.
• 25:00
  SPEAKER_02: Yep.
• 25:00
  SPEAKER_02: And I haven't seen I haven't seen like the game from Arnning yet.
• 25:04
  SPEAKER_00: You know what's crazy too is the schedule that Texas has coming up over the next five games.
• 25:09
  SPEAKER_00: Let's highlight that real quick.
• 25:10
  SPEAKER_00: Do you not have that pulled up in front of you?
• 25:12
  SPEAKER_02: I got it right now.
• 25:13
  SPEAKER_00: All right.
• 25:13
  SPEAKER_00: Let's highlight this.
• 25:14
  SPEAKER_00: So they have a bye week right now.
• 25:15
  SPEAKER_00: Hold on one second.
• 25:16
  SPEAKER_00: The the uh everyone is saying that this is likely the most challenging five-game stretch ever in the history of college football.
• 25:23
  SPEAKER_02: They got they got basically four top ten games left.
• 25:27
  SPEAKER_02: LC was, you know, eleven, but they're probably gonna end up in the top ten by the end of the season.
• 25:30
  SPEAKER_02: But so they got okay, here, let me show you.
• 25:32
  SPEAKER_02: So they got a bye week, then they got the Red River rivalry.
• 25:35
  SPEAKER_02: And Oakland was probably gonna be mad juice just because they're they've had a rough start, and they're and it's the Red River rivalry, obviously.
• 25:43
  SPEAKER_02: And I could see them being very juiced, but I do think we're gonna pull out a W.
• 25:46
  SPEAKER_02: But then after that, we play number eight Florida.
• 25:50
  SPEAKER_02: Thankfully the next the next well, the next three games gone.
• 25:54
  SPEAKER_02: Honestly, I was I'm also gonna have schedule when I was looking at all the opponents.
• 25:58
  SPEAKER_02: I was thinking that it was it was way worse, but we have we have Florida, Ole Miss, and then Mississippi State, but we have all three of them at home.
• 26:06
  SPEAKER_02: At home, yeah.
• 26:07
  SPEAKER_02: Luckily it's at home.
• 26:08
  SPEAKER_02: That is massive.
• 26:09
  SPEAKER_02: If we were to have to go play Florida away, that'd be horrible.
• 26:12
  SPEAKER_02: So we have Florida, then Ole Miss, and then Mississippi State all at home.
• 26:15
  SPEAKER_02: Camario Taylor, by the way, he's looking like a stud.
• 26:19
  SPEAKER_02: Quarterback for Mississippi State, true freshman.
• 26:21
  SPEAKER_02: And then we got Missouri at Missouri, and then we have LSU at LCU, which is gonna be a tough game.
• 26:26
  SPEAKER_02: Mm-hmm.
• 26:26
  SPEAKER_02: And then we got and then and then yeah, then then the next then and then Arkansas, which will be uh a nice W, like uh a nice cushion for us.
• 26:35
  SPEAKER_02: And then a nice like safe week.
• 26:37
  SPEAKER_02: And then after that, we have Texas and Texas AM, which is a massive rivalry.
• 26:41
  SPEAKER_02: I know, I let me.
• 26:42
  SPEAKER_02: So it is just gonna be a crazy, crazy Texas schedule.
• 26:46
  SPEAKER_00: Well, and so of our remaining, what, eight or nine games, whatever it is, they're all against top twenty teams.
• 26:52
  SPEAKER_00: And then the Red River rivalry, it's not even including that against Oklahoma because they're kind of having a down year this year.
• 26:58
  SPEAKER_00: But it's the Red River rivalry.
• 26:59
  SPEAKER_02: Exactly.
• 26:59
  SPEAKER_00: It's still a rivalry game, dude.
• 27:01
  SPEAKER_00: Like this is this has got to be what they're ranking Texas's schedule the mo the hardest out of anybody this year.
• 27:07
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 27:07
  SPEAKER_00: And then these next five games stretch, the hardest out of anybody that's ever faced ever.
• 27:11
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, this could be like the first nine and three playoff team.
• 27:14
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
• 27:14
  SPEAKER_00: I think they'd have a case.
• 27:15
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but we I mean we've already been Tennessee and Ohio State, which are way better than our wins last year.
• 27:20
  SPEAKER_00: Most teams last year in the college football playoff didn't have two wins against top 14 ranked teams.
• 27:26
  SPEAKER_00: No.
• 27:26
  SPEAKER_00: You know, most of them didn't.
• 27:27
  SPEAKER_02: So our best win last year was what was it?
• 27:30
  SPEAKER_02: It was either it was either Oklahoma, because I think Oklahoma's ranked number six.
• 27:35
  SPEAKER_02: They were definitely in the top ten last year or AM.
• 27:38
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 27:39
  SPEAKER_02: That was the but that was it.
• 27:40
  SPEAKER_02: We lost to Georgia and Ohio State.
• 27:42
  SPEAKER_00: I like it, man.
• 27:43
  SPEAKER_00: And Florida.
• 27:44
  SPEAKER_00: So what's your prediction of how uh by the end of the season, realistically, what's your prediction for Texas's record?
• 27:49
  SPEAKER_00: Ten and two.
• 27:49
  SPEAKER_00: Ten and two?
• 27:50
  SPEAKER_00: Who do you think our two losses are gonna be?
• 27:52
  SPEAKER_02: Um I really want to say Oklahoma, but I I just John Matier isn't looking good.
• 28:00
  SPEAKER_02: He's really struggling.
• 28:01
  SPEAKER_02: He's I don't I don't know.
• 28:03
  SPEAKER_02: You think we'll lose the Red River rivalry?
• 28:04
  SPEAKER_02: No, I think we'll win that game.
• 28:06
  SPEAKER_02: I think I think we lose Florida, and then beat Ole Miss.
• 28:11
  SPEAKER_02: Then we beat and then see, I think we lose against Florida, and then we beat Ole Miss, and then we beat Mississippi State, Missouri, and then we beat LCU, and then Actually, I think we go 11-1, honestly.
• 28:24
  SPEAKER_02: That sounds crazy to me, but I think we go 11-1.
• 28:26
  SPEAKER_02: I think Archman, I know I I I'm seeing really inconsistent Archmanning right now, but us again with last year.
• 28:33
  SPEAKER_02: Last year we were um last year we were the the first the first half of the season, Arch looked horrible.
• 28:39
  SPEAKER_02: The second half, Arch was the best quarterback in the whole nation.
• 28:42
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 28:42
  SPEAKER_02: So if he could just give it back to his second half form, and the second half we meet him most, he we we will be fine.
• 28:48
  SPEAKER_02: And I think he will.
• 28:49
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 28:49
  SPEAKER_02: So I think we do have one loss in the next four weeks, and I don't I don't I don't really care which team it is, but I think we have one.
• 28:55
  SPEAKER_02: But then the rest we'll be we'll be chilling.
• 28:57
  SPEAKER_02: I like that.
• 28:58
  SPEAKER_00: I agree.
• 28:58
  SPEAKER_00: Let's go, Texas, hook him, baby.

  SPEAKER_02: There are so much good teams, and it does worry me.
• 35:56
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 35:56
  SPEAKER_02: The defense looked good the first two weeks.
• 35:58
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know what happened against the Steelers.
• 36:00
  SPEAKER_02: That's fair.
• 36:01
  SPEAKER_02: They looked really just the it was horrible.
• 36:03
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 36:04
  SPEAKER_02: And Rodgers looked like an MVP, and it was just it was really bad overall.
• 36:08
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 36:09
  SPEAKER_02: But Joe Brooklyn, and I'm still confident, and I think by the end of the season, they'll be a top three team.
• 36:13
  SPEAKER_02: But right now, respectively, I'm gonna have to put him at number 10.
• 36:16
  SPEAKER_00: But because your rankings are strictly the through the first three games.
• 36:20
  SPEAKER_00: Yes.
• 36:20
  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 36:20
  SPEAKER_02: First I think I respect that.
• 36:22
  SPEAKER_02: Alright.
• 36:23
  SPEAKER_02: And I I I don't have confidence in my defense right now, but Joe, I confidence in Joe Bro 100%.
• 36:28
  SPEAKER_02: He's gonna In Joe we trust, baby.
• 36:29
  SPEAKER_02: He's gonna be ticked off and he's gonna be come out the next three games.
• 36:32
  SPEAKER_02: Three-now.
• 36:33
  SPEAKER_02: But anyways, okay.
• 36:34
  SPEAKER_02: Alright, number nine.
• 36:35
  SPEAKER_02: I got Detroit.
• 36:37
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, they always have a solid offense, and on their defense is really iffy to mean.
• 36:41
  SPEAKER_02: I actually might put Cincinnati ahead of them right now, but we'll just stick to it.
• 36:45
  SPEAKER_02: Detroit, Jared Goff, when he has a clean pocket, he can't really move, but when he has a clean pocket, he can easily get the ball to his playmakers, and he has the he has the best offensive weapons.
• 36:56
  SPEAKER_02: He has um he has Almiral St.
• 36:59
  SPEAKER_02: Brown, Jameson Williams, Jameer Gibbs, and Sandra Porta.
• 37:03
  SPEAKER_02: That is the best, that is the best offense that you could think of.
• 37:07
  SPEAKER_00: That's a phenomenal that's a phenomenal fantasy football roster, by the way.
• 37:10
  SPEAKER_02: That's crazy.
• 37:10
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 37:11
  SPEAKER_02: And then, okay, so yeah, but the defense is iffy, but so we'll just see we'll see how the season goes out.
• 37:16
  SPEAKER_02: Alright.
• 37:16
  SPEAKER_02: Number eight, I got Philadelphia.
• 37:18
  SPEAKER_02: We are do we are recording this on Monday, so I don't know how the game's gonna turn out this tonight, but I do think that Jalen Hurts and this offense is gonna click more, but right now they are really weird and they haven't played well, and they've had some close games since I think Tennessee and Washington.
• 37:33
  SPEAKER_02: They played Washington, right?
• 37:35
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 37:36
  SPEAKER_02: I can't remember.
• 37:36
  SPEAKER_02: I don't look at it.
• 37:38
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but yeah, they had a close game against Tennessee.
• 37:40
  SPEAKER_02: They have the best roster to mean, and all of them, Seattle and the Rams have the best rosters.
• 37:47
  SPEAKER_02: And when when their offense can play, they'll be really dangerous like they always are.
• 37:50
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 37:51
  SPEAKER_02: And then number seven, Jacksonville.
• 37:52
  SPEAKER_02: They just dominated the uh they just dominated the Prit Patriots 35 to 6.
• 37:58
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, they did.
• 38:00
  SPEAKER_02: I feel like I should have them in my top five, which is weird.
• 38:03
  SPEAKER_02: Like I had them at number 11, but you're making a good point.
• 38:06
  SPEAKER_02: Dad, they're like the last year they were 13 to 4.
• 38:09
  SPEAKER_02: We don't talk about that.
• 38:10
  SPEAKER_02: They're a top five defense.
• 38:11
  SPEAKER_02: They have Trevor Lawrence and they have playmakers and Brian Thomas Jr.
• 38:15
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 38:15
  SPEAKER_02: And oh, who's their running back?
• 38:17
  SPEAKER_02: I think it's Trevor E.
• 38:18
  SPEAKER_02: Tien or something, but they have playmakers and they they got talent.
• 38:21
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, they got a good defense.
• 38:22
  SPEAKER_02: They got Liam Cohen's a great coach, and dad, they're gonna be dangerous.
• 38:26
  SPEAKER_02: I don't know.
• 38:26
  SPEAKER_02: I I feel like I'm they're still a little underrated.
• 38:29
  SPEAKER_00: And Trevor Lawrence is one of those that has all the talent in the world if it starts clicking.
• 38:33
  SPEAKER_00: Like, watch out.
• 38:34
  SPEAKER_00: He's a good pick.
• 38:34
  SPEAKER_00: I think I'm gonna agree with you there.
• 38:36
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and then okay, number six.
• 38:37
  SPEAKER_00: I know you were absolutely right.
• 38:38
  SPEAKER_00: The Eagles beat the commanders last week.
• 38:40
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 38:40
  SPEAKER_02: All right, okay.
• 38:41
  SPEAKER_02: Numbers.
• 38:44
  SPEAKER_02: Okay, I got Baltimore.
• 38:45
  SPEAKER_02: They had a really crazy win against Dallas, but um their defense is not as hard as I think that they used to be, but that we got I mean, obviously it's Lamar Jackson, they got Zay Flowers, they got playmakers, they got um They got a new defensive, they got a defensive coach, which might be a little weird with Lamar Jackson, but it's working out so far, and their defense, their defense just needs to click a little bit more, but overall I think they're really solid and yeah, and I think they're they're gonna be good against your team.
• 39:14
  SPEAKER_02: Alright.
• 39:14
  SPEAKER_02: Number five, I got the Rams.
• 39:16
  SPEAKER_02: You know, they lost again, and I feel like they might be a little high, but they had a best roster in the NFL.
• 39:22
  SPEAKER_02: They don't have Puka Nakua or Miles Garrett right now, and they're still and they but they had a really bad collapse.
• 39:28
  SPEAKER_02: Hold on.
• 39:30
  SPEAKER_02: Is that a dog?
• 39:31
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 39:31
  SPEAKER_02: Hey, no, it's probably Bella.
• 39:34
  SPEAKER_02: Bella, no! Alright, there we go.
• 39:36
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, so number five, we got the Rams.
• 39:39
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, I don't know.
• 39:39
  SPEAKER_00: So even though they're one and two.
• 39:41
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I know, but I saw confidence in Matthew Stafford.
• 39:43
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, even though they had a really bad collapse and that was just really weird, they're still the pre they were still the preseason like number one Super Bowl favorite, heavy favorite.
• 39:52
  SPEAKER_02: They're not playing as Puka Nicole or Miles Gay right now.
• 39:54
  SPEAKER_02: So they might struggle with the first couple weeks, but I think by the end of the season they'll be around 11, 6, 12, and 5.
• 39:59
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 39:59
  SPEAKER_02: I respect.
• 40:00
  SPEAKER_02: I still got faith in them.
• 40:01
  SPEAKER_02: Alright, number four is San wait, hold on.
• 40:03
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, number four is San Francisco.
• 40:05
  SPEAKER_02: This is really high, but they brought Purdy's playing at an MVP level right now.
• 40:10
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 40:11
  SPEAKER_02: And but I they I think there's just a reporter that Trett Williams is out.
• 40:15
  SPEAKER_02: Uh Nick Bosa got a calf injury.
• 40:16
  SPEAKER_02: Again.
• 40:17
  SPEAKER_02: Demarcus Robinson had a non-contact injury, and I mean it's just starting to happen to him again.
• 40:22
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, and uh Ricky Pearsall had a wait, it's is it Ricky Yeah.
• 40:25
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, Ricky Pearsall had a season ending injury before, so they didn't even have one of their top young running uh receivers, and I'm just like, what is happening?
• 40:33
  SPEAKER_02: But right now, in the first three weeks, yeah, they're the number they're the number four team in the in the in the league right now.
• 40:38
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know these stats, but it would be curious to go back and look and see the first six games of the past three seasons, how good the Niners' record was.
• 40:47
  SPEAKER_02: They're so good, but they stay healthy until January.
• 40:50
  SPEAKER_02: Like they no none of them are all.
• 40:57
  SPEAKER_02: Um Kyle Shannon favors old guys that understand his his um his offense and uh just any he's loyal to them and he just loves them.
• 41:06
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 41:06
  SPEAKER_02: And yeah, he needs he needs smart players, so yeah, because he has a really complicated offense, so when he has guys that are loyal to him that are old, then he he loves them.
• 41:14
  SPEAKER_02: I like it.
• 41:14
  SPEAKER_02: But yeah, number three, I got Buffalo.
• 41:17
  SPEAKER_02: Um look, d Josh Allen is look, Josh Allen, I mean honestly, Josh Allen is tied for Joe Burrow for I'm sorry guys, but for all the people that you're crying about me, but yeah, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow are the best quarterbacks in the league.
• 41:32
  SPEAKER_02: But Josh Allen's playing so good right now.
• 41:34
  SPEAKER_02: They had a really weird week against Los Angeles, but they they got it.
• 41:37
  SPEAKER_02: It wasn't pretty, but it was ugly, but they got it, and and yeah.
• 41:41
  SPEAKER_02: Good point.
• 41:41
  SPEAKER_02: Good point.
• 41:42
  SPEAKER_02: Uh number two, guys, I really hate to say this.
• 41:45
  SPEAKER_02: Uh oh.
• 41:45
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, no way.
• 41:46
  SPEAKER_02: Uh you are not gonna do this.
• 41:48
  SPEAKER_02: No, that I have to.
• 41:49
  SPEAKER_02: You were oh my gosh.
• 41:51
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 41:51
  SPEAKER_02: No.
• 41:52
  SPEAKER_02: What?
• 41:53
  SPEAKER_02: So they okay, guys, this is the first three weeks by okay.
• 41:57
  SPEAKER_02: Patrick Mahomes is playing at a very average.
• 42:00
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, he's doing it.
• 42:01
  SPEAKER_03: No, but you're doing it! I can't believe this.
• 42:04
  SPEAKER_00: Dad, Kenneth Okay, this is just proof that Briggs just is true to sport ball.
• 42:09
  SPEAKER_00: No, and he knows ball.
• 42:11
  SPEAKER_02: Alright, go ahead.
• 42:12
  SPEAKER_02: Kenneth Walker's ch has I mean, he's like and just the fact that like I just want to say that to hate Mahomes even more, the fact like Kenneth Walker is the offense right now.
• 42:21
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 42:22
  SPEAKER_02: And Kenneth Walker and Mahomes is just the little piece that doesn't even matter.
• 42:25
  SPEAKER_02: But, anyways, Kenneth Walker has just changed his offense.
• 42:28
  SPEAKER_02: Like, they have weapons now, and their offensive line is good.
• 42:31
  SPEAKER_02: I mean, Rasheed Rice and Xavier Warriors look like deep threats now.
• 42:34
  SPEAKER_02: Charles Kelsey looks like he's like 25 again.
• 42:36
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 42:37
  SPEAKER_02: And Mahomes just needs to just hand it off and he'll be fine.
• 42:39
  SPEAKER_02: So he's not really doing anything.
• 42:41
  SPEAKER_00: So he's gonna get all the credit, even though really it's not.
• 42:43
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it's it's Kenneth Walker.
• 42:44
  SPEAKER_02: And their defense is good.
• 42:46
  SPEAKER_02: They're oh they always have a top five defense, just to diss on Mahomes more.
• 42:49
  SPEAKER_02: And but yeah, I I hate I truly this is like this is like my sin of the week.
• 42:57
  SPEAKER_02: But I I I'm sorry, I I have to put on number two.
• 43:00
  SPEAKER_00: They look they look darn good right now with Kenneth Walker.
• 43:03
  SPEAKER_00: They do.
• 43:03
  SPEAKER_00: I I have them number two as well, so I yeah, I think your analysis is spot on.
• 43:08
  SPEAKER_02: But Mahomes, no, he's he's yeah, he's like the 31st best quarterback in the league.
• 43:12
  SPEAKER_02: But anyways, all right, number one is is Seattle.
• 43:15
  SPEAKER_02: They just lost, they had a really upset loss against Frick, who was it?
• 43:20
  SPEAKER_02: It was against Washington.
• 43:21
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 43:22
  SPEAKER_02: And um, I think it was just a weird week.
• 43:24
  SPEAKER_02: Sam Darnold struggled, and they're I think they're missing their two safeties right now, but I they have the we have one of the best rosters in the NFL, if not the best, and they got Jackson Smith and Jigbo, who's leading their the league and receiving yards and touchdowns.
• 43:38
  SPEAKER_02: And then and yeah, and I just think they have one of the best rosters in the NFL.
• 43:42
  SPEAKER_02: And but their running game is iffy to me.
• 43:45
  SPEAKER_02: They they can't ru they did not run the ball well against Washington.
• 43:48
  SPEAKER_02: So that is one of the question marks, but that is why that is why my my like my top three is like very close to each other because I feel like either either one of them could be number one right now.
• 43:58
  SPEAKER_00: I like it.
• 43:59
  SPEAKER_00: I like it.
• 44:00
  SPEAKER_00: Well, and Kenneth Walker left the Seahawks last year and he was with the Chiefs, and that was a huge that's probably the best offseason pickup.
• 44:07
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 44:08
  SPEAKER_00: That in the Rams with Miles Garrett, but he's not playing yet.
• 44:10
  SPEAKER_00: So I I actually agree with your list.
• 44:12
  SPEAKER_00: Tell me about um so Minnesota Vikings, um, you didn't have them on your list.
• 44:16
  SPEAKER_00: No.
• 44:17
  SPEAKER_00: They are three and oh.
• 44:18
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 44:18
  SPEAKER_00: That's the only major difference between my list and yours.
• 44:21
  SPEAKER_00: I actually put them in number four.
• 44:22
  SPEAKER_00: I'm giving him a lot of credit for being on four.
• 44:25
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 44:25
  SPEAKER_00: That is ridiculous.
• 44:27
  SPEAKER_00: No, no, because they got that Brian Florence defense.
• 44:30
  SPEAKER_00: Who's their quarterback?
• 44:31
  SPEAKER_00: Kyler Murray.
• 44:32
  SPEAKER_00: You think Kyler Murray?
• 44:33
  SPEAKER_00: He's good enough.
• 44:33
  SPEAKER_00: He's five and Kevin O'Connell as their as their sucks.
• 44:37
  SPEAKER_00: But he's got Justin Jefferson, he's got Jordan Addison throwing up.
• 44:40
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but he's 5'10.
• 44:41
  SPEAKER_02: You just watched it.
• 44:42
  SPEAKER_02: Carson Wentz isn't gonna carry him.
• 44:44
  SPEAKER_02: Kyler Murray is he did not play well at all.
• 44:47
  SPEAKER_00: He looked very Well, he didn't have a chance.
• 44:49
  SPEAKER_00: He got smacked his first like because he's 5'10.
• 44:53
  SPEAKER_02: And Carson Wentz is unk, so he's not gonna be able to do anything.
• 44:57
  SPEAKER_02: He's a solid enough backup.
• 44:58
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, but he's not gonna carry them.
• 45:00
  SPEAKER_00: At least it's not JJ McCarthy anymore.
• 45:02
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but that's so the other one that I thought was interesting, neither you nor I had the Chicago Bears in our top ten.
• 45:09
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 45:09
  SPEAKER_02: Well, it's with K well, this the first three weeks with Caleb Williams being out.
• 45:13
  SPEAKER_02: No, they're not a top, they're not a top ten team right now, in my opinion.
• 45:16
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, we'll we'll see.
• 45:17
  SPEAKER_00: The verdict I think is still out.
• 45:18
  SPEAKER_00: They're my biggest bubble team out there.
• 45:20
  SPEAKER_00: But the rest of your list I liked.
• 45:22
  SPEAKER_00: I liked.
• 45:22
  SPEAKER_00: I had Denver Broncos at number nine.
• 45:24
  SPEAKER_00: I think you had Central.
• 45:26
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, I th I I probably should, but then I probably should I probably if I updated now, it'd probably be Cincinnati nine, Denver 10, Detroit 11th.
• 45:33
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
• 45:33
  SPEAKER_02: Okay.
• 45:33
  SPEAKER_00: But yeah.
• 45:34
  SPEAKER_00: I actually had if you're curious, I had Cincinnati at number 10 as well.
• 45:37
  SPEAKER_00: So I agree with you on that one.
• 45:38
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 45:39
  SPEAKER_00: Sadly, but uh all right.
• 45:44
  SPEAKER_00: Okay, just give me your give me your prediction.
• 45:46
  SPEAKER_00: Who plays in the Super Bowl and who wins?
• 45:48
  SPEAKER_02: Uh Cincinnati and um Cincinnati and um Los Angeles.
• 45:54
  SPEAKER_00: Ooh, a rematch of 2021 Super Bowl, right?
• 45:57
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 45:57
  SPEAKER_00: So does Joe Burrow get his redemption?
• 45:59
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 46:00
  SPEAKER_00: So it's so Joe Burrow and the Bengals are winning it all this year.
• 46:03
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 46:03
  SPEAKER_00: Let's go.
• 46:03
  SPEAKER_00: I hope that comes true.
• 46:07
  SPEAKER_00: Let's go.
• 46:08
  SPEAKER_00: Let's go, and the fellows are
