- 0:28Speaker 4: I said this at the beginning of the season.
- 0:30Speaker 3: I feel like I've got a two that's capable of
- 0:32Speaker 3: starting for a handful of number of teams.
- 0:35Speaker 4: And I know he feels the same way.
- 0:37Speaker 5: The appp getting the most out of the uh, out
- 0:41Speaker 5: of the quarterback in this ball game? Here, stick them,
- 0:44Speaker 5: stick them in this game on Sunday afternoon against the
- 0:47Speaker 5: Paint Huge.
- 0:49Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 0:51Speaker 2: You know what I realize on this bud Light Football Friday, Uh,
- 0:58Speaker 2: there is a genuine curiosity and excitement towards seeing something
- 1:04Speaker 2: that you literally have no idea it's gonna play out.
- 1:07Speaker 2: I don't know if Stidham's gonna go out there and
- 1:08Speaker 2: throw four touchdowns or four picks. I have no idea.
- 1:12Speaker 2: And it kind of reminds me in a weird way
- 1:15Speaker 2: of when the Kendall Hinting game was coming, and I'm like,
- 1:19Speaker 2: I'm kind of excited. I don't know what I'm gonna
- 1:21Speaker 2: see well with Kendell Hinton. I saw three plays and
- 1:24Speaker 2: they go, all right, I'm over this already. I hate it.
- 1:27Speaker 2: That's not gonna be the case here. But think about
- 1:30Speaker 2: where you're at this weekend. Jared Stidham is your starting
- 1:37Speaker 2: quarterback in the AFC Championship Game, and if I ask you,
- 1:40Speaker 2: how do you think he's gonna play, everybody's answer is
- 1:43Speaker 2: no idea.
- 1:44Speaker 6: It feels like a regular season opener. Here's what all
- 1:49Speaker 6: the concoction of emotions that I'm feeling this week, and
- 1:52Speaker 6: I think a lot of them are a lot of
- 1:53Speaker 6: people must be feeling this in Broncos country. It's like
- 1:58Speaker 6: a dash of misery, fear, anxiety, hope, and unadulterated confidence
- 2:06Speaker 6: that comes out of nowhere. It's a little bit of everything.
- 2:09Speaker 6: It's a weird, weird feeling.
- 2:12Speaker 2: I seriously like, I don't think they're gonna win. I'm
- 2:18Speaker 2: just gonna say that from the top. I don't think
- 2:20Speaker 2: the Broncos are gonna win, but I think they could.
- 2:23Speaker 2: I really think they could. In spite of that, Like,
- 2:26Speaker 2: you're in the AFC Championship Game, one team, and how
- 2:29Speaker 2: crazy is this fifty three man roster for the Denver
- 2:32Speaker 2: Broncos fifty two were on the field yesterday practicing in
- 2:36Speaker 2: some capacity except your starting quarterback.
- 2:38Speaker 6: You just said something I've been saying all week. You
- 2:41Speaker 6: just said it differently. I wouldn't be surprised if the
- 2:44Speaker 6: Broncos won. You shouldn't be surprised because this is the
- 2:49Speaker 6: way the season is gone.
- 2:51Speaker 4: This is what they are. Would you think they're mos
- 2:58Speaker 4: This is a speaking show, but we wa Typically in
- 3:01Speaker 4: the first five minutes of his program, you two just
- 3:04Speaker 4: go back and forth at each other and then you
- 3:06Speaker 4: wait for me to chime in. See if I tried
- 3:08Speaker 4: to chime in a little bit earlier, I couldn't get
- 3:10Speaker 4: a word in edgewise because both of your teeth are rattling,
- 3:13Speaker 4: like uh.
- 3:13Speaker 2: No, child's toy. I would have loved if you did, because,
- 3:17Speaker 2: to be honest, I was out of breath after dancing
- 3:19Speaker 2: to Young Jesus.
- 3:19Speaker 4: Well, you also did some push ups right before the show,
- 3:21Speaker 4: did that too, So yeah, I can understand that. Hey man, Vic,
- 3:25Speaker 4: the more you're not gonna believe this, You are not
- 3:30Speaker 4: going to believe this. The more I've looked at this,
- 3:34Speaker 4: the more I've really come around that this can happen
- 3:38Speaker 4: what changed. Well, we're gonna go over Okay, well, I'm
- 3:42Speaker 4: gonna go over my list of things that have to
- 3:44Speaker 4: happen for you to win this football game. And it's extensive. Okay,
- 3:51Speaker 4: and maybe it doesn't exactly jie with your list. We'll
- 3:54Speaker 4: see how it looks. But if you play your cards
- 3:58Speaker 4: right and things break right, you could definitely win this
- 4:03Speaker 4: football You gotta definitely you got a.
- 4:04Speaker 2: Good card player on that headset. By the way, he's
- 4:07Speaker 2: a good call.
- 4:08Speaker 4: You, no doubt about it. Yeah, he's he's Uh, he's
- 4:10Speaker 4: Doyle Brunson right there, right with the with the big
- 4:13Speaker 4: old cowboy hat.
- 4:14Speaker 2: And Chris Moneymaker.
- 4:15Speaker 4: Well, Moneymaker got lucky one year. Phil's Phil still hanging. Yeah,
- 4:21Speaker 4: he's still doing his thing.
- 4:22Speaker 7: No, he's he's the guy in Rounders whose name I
- 4:25Speaker 7: don't know.
- 4:25Speaker 6: The character's name, Pat Damon.
- 4:31Speaker 2: Pay that me and his min Please don't do Tenny
- 4:34Speaker 2: KGP again.
- 4:35Speaker 7: I'll say this great, great, Yeah, Vick, we'll get to
- 4:38Speaker 7: that later.
- 4:39Speaker 6: When Moser tells his angry pig story.
- 4:42Speaker 4: Listen, the pig story ain't coming out for quite a while.
- 4:45Speaker 4: All right, Okay, it's so funny that people listen. Anybody
- 4:48Speaker 4: who's ever seen a pig meltdown. They know what I'm
- 4:51Speaker 4: talking about.
- 4:53Speaker 2: You know he's speaking of this is I'm so damn
- 4:56Speaker 2: excited for such I'm so excited now.
- 4:59Speaker 6: I want listen, I want the game now.
- 5:02Speaker 2: The concept of this, I've heard a few Broncos fans
- 5:07Speaker 2: say this. I want to know if you guys buy it,
- 5:09Speaker 2: because I totally understand it. I don't think it's quite
- 5:13Speaker 2: this though, the idea that the Broncos this weekend are
- 5:18Speaker 2: playing with house money, I don't think that's the case.
- 5:23Speaker 2: I don't want reason true playing with house money to me?
- 5:26Speaker 2: To me is this I thought last year in the
- 5:29Speaker 2: playoffs it was house money, because house money is if
- 5:32Speaker 2: you lose, you just kind of go.
- 5:33Speaker 6: Eh, exactly right.
- 5:34Speaker 2: How you don't have that feeling, even even despite like
- 5:38Speaker 2: the situation you've been presented with a backup quarterback in
- 5:40Speaker 2: this game, you aren't gonna feel that way.
- 5:42Speaker 6: If you look look at the definition of house money.
- 5:45Speaker 6: You're playing with somebody else's money. Yeah, you're playing with
- 5:48Speaker 6: somebody else's money. It doesn't cost you much.
- 5:50Speaker 4: If you lose the AFC title game at eight, it's
- 5:53Speaker 4: gonna hurt. Yeah, it's gonna be like crap.
- 5:56Speaker 2: Now, it probably would hurt a lot less than if
- 5:59Speaker 2: bo Nix was playing. I think we all acknowledge that,
- 6:01Speaker 2: but it would still hurt a lot.
- 6:02Speaker 4: Yeah, you game out here, the game, the fact that
- 6:05Speaker 4: you got here, man, the fact that you've you've done
- 6:09Speaker 4: what you've done all season long. Again, it feels like
- 6:12Speaker 4: a destiny type of thing. I'm not saying they are
- 6:14Speaker 4: a team of destiny, but the way things have broken
- 6:17Speaker 4: for them and the way they've made their own breaks
- 6:19Speaker 4: at times. The defending MVP comes in here, puts up
- 6:22Speaker 4: four hundred and fifty yards of offense, but they turn
- 6:25Speaker 4: the ball over five times. I mean, if you don't
- 6:30Speaker 4: get there, it's gonna be a bummer. Man, It's gonna
- 6:32Speaker 4: be a bummer. It really is, you know.
- 6:35Speaker 6: It's it's interesting because the Denver Broncos are on the
- 6:40Speaker 6: cusp of a Super Bowl appearance, and it's happened so
- 6:44Speaker 6: fast and so out of left field that you just
- 6:46Speaker 6: don't soak that in. And if they win this game
- 6:49Speaker 6: on Sunday and they're headed back to Set and Clara
- 6:52Speaker 6: for an opportunity to win it all, do you guys
- 6:55Speaker 6: get the feeling? And you speak of house money for
- 6:58Speaker 6: me and maybe the tunele change if on Monday they advance.
- 7:03Speaker 7: Yeah, for me, getting there is all I need for me.
- 7:10Speaker 2: Then the super Bowl would feel like house money.
- 7:12Speaker 6: Like No, getting to that game is like a huge, huge,
- 7:16Speaker 6: like oh my God. Like winning it would be extraordinary obviously,
- 7:20Speaker 6: but getting there like this game to me almost feels
- 7:23Speaker 6: bigger than the Super Bowl.
- 7:27Speaker 3: No.
- 7:28Speaker 2: I get where he's coming from. I don't think what
- 7:30Speaker 2: I'm trying to say. I think I think I get it.
- 7:33Speaker 2: It's like it fits look just on the surface everything
- 7:39Speaker 2: we've known about football in sports in general. Most you
- 7:44Speaker 2: ask anybody, you ask a hockey player, a basketball player,
- 7:46Speaker 2: a soccer player, it doesn't matter. You ask them what's
- 7:49Speaker 2: the most important position in all of sports? I think
- 7:52Speaker 2: they would all tell you quarterback in football, wouldn't they.
- 7:56Speaker 2: Do you think that Josh Manson would have a different
- 7:58Speaker 2: answer than that.
- 7:59Speaker 4: I doubt that he will.
- 8:02Speaker 2: When you lose that and look for all the examples
- 8:06Speaker 2: that have been given of backup quarterbacks that were able
- 8:09Speaker 2: to like kind of come through and be the hero
- 8:11Speaker 2: in situations like this. When we're talking about Fowles or
- 8:13Speaker 2: Hostetler or what are some other names of the people
- 8:16Speaker 2: who've done that before? Backup quarterbacks stepped.
- 8:19Speaker 4: In Jim Plunket.
- 8:20Speaker 2: Sure, no one on that list has four career starts,
- 8:27Speaker 2: no one.
- 8:28Speaker 6: Well, I'll give you lists.
- 8:30Speaker 7: And it's truly remarkable when you look at it this way, because.
- 8:32Speaker 6: We've been talking at nauseum about Stiddy and what he's
- 8:37Speaker 6: facing this this week, because it doesn't happen too often.
- 8:41Speaker 6: Do you guys know how many quarterbacks have been in
- 8:43Speaker 6: this situation? How many quarterbacks have played their first game
- 8:47Speaker 6: of the season, beat a playoff game, making their first start.
- 8:51Speaker 2: It's him and Staubach, right.
- 8:53Speaker 7: No, no, no, there's a long list of guys.
- 8:55Speaker 6: There's a long list of guys that have done this.
- 8:57Speaker 2: It's actually about the list in the championship game. No,
- 8:59Speaker 2: not the championship game, sorry, the whole season. I have
- 9:05Speaker 2: no idea.
- 9:05Speaker 7: You tell me my computer's not working right now.
- 9:12Speaker 2: Sounds like it would have been great.
- 9:13Speaker 4: You know, you know what, dude, you know what you do?
- 9:15Speaker 4: Sometimes you build me up Buttercup just to let me down.
- 9:21Speaker 2: Such a tease.
- 9:22Speaker 4: What do you build me up?
- 9:24Speaker 6: Build me up, butter Cup baby.
- 9:26Speaker 4: Just to let.
- 9:29Speaker 2: His computer. Maybe you can call him Mike.
- 9:32Speaker 4: But.
- 9:34Speaker 3: I got to pick the Gelatto card.
- 9:36Speaker 2: The point here to Jared Stidham being in this moment,
- 9:41Speaker 2: and I think when we talk about the concept of
- 9:45Speaker 2: house money, I'll tell you where it's house money. At
- 9:47Speaker 2: least in one respect, it's house money for him in
- 9:51Speaker 2: his career. For Jared's Stidham, it is if he goes
- 9:55Speaker 2: out and he plays terrible and he throws four picks,
- 9:59Speaker 2: does it really matter?
- 10:00Speaker 4: No, Yeah, it does matter because Sean Payton.
- 10:04Speaker 2: For him specifically, for Jared Stidham specifically.
- 10:08Speaker 7: Well, it could matter for him moving forward.
- 10:09Speaker 6: You know, I heard Tyler Palumbus mention that can you
- 10:12Speaker 6: imagine how much money he's going to.
- 10:14Speaker 7: Make if he wins two games?
- 10:16Speaker 4: Sure?
- 10:16Speaker 2: No, But but this is what I'm saying. For him specifically,
- 10:19Speaker 2: I think it's house money. If he plays bad, you
- 10:21Speaker 2: kind of look at it, be like, well, it's a
- 10:22Speaker 2: backup quarterback thrown in an impossible position. But if he
- 10:25Speaker 2: plays well, But I mean, he stands to gain a
- 10:28Speaker 2: ton even if.
- 10:30Speaker 4: Here's the thing about it, but what if he really
- 10:31Speaker 4: plays poorly?
- 10:32Speaker 6: There is always another side. What if he's the reason
- 10:35Speaker 6: on every possession? You just can't do anything. But and
- 10:37Speaker 6: I doubt that's gonna.
- 10:38Speaker 2: Happen, He's still gonna have a job.
- 10:39Speaker 4: Listen, even if you had a starting quarterback. Let's see,
- 10:42Speaker 4: you have a starting quarterback who's been injured for a year. Yeah,
- 10:48Speaker 4: and they're coming back for the first time in a year,
- 10:50Speaker 4: and they were talking about a good starting quarterback. Let's say, what.
- 10:55Speaker 2: Like if Joe Burrow was out for the year and
- 10:57Speaker 2: he comes back now or something.
- 10:58Speaker 4: I mean, let's see, he got injured last year in
- 11:00Speaker 4: the postseason and he hasn't played all season long, and
- 11:04Speaker 4: somehow the Bengals get to the ANFC title game and
- 11:07Speaker 4: you're throwing Joe Burrow in there to start the AFC
- 11:10Speaker 4: title game. That being said, I mean, he's obviously a
- 11:13Speaker 4: supreme talent, but you haven't played football at that speed.
- 11:18Speaker 6: That's the problem, right, A law in a law speed correct.
- 11:23Speaker 4: So even for great quarterbacks and good quarterbacks and whatever,
- 11:29Speaker 4: to throw them into their first start in a year
- 11:32Speaker 4: and this is now first ball thrown in a couple
- 11:35Speaker 4: of years against that kind of speed in this particular game,
- 11:39Speaker 4: a conference title game. It's a lot of pressure. So
- 11:42Speaker 4: you can say, you can say, you can say Studham
- 11:44Speaker 4: play with house money, but no, man, there's a lot
- 11:46Speaker 4: on the line for his team, and I'm sure he
- 11:48Speaker 4: feels that. He's probably thankful for the opportunity to show
- 11:51Speaker 4: his wares because he believes in himself. Vic Sean Payton
- 11:55Speaker 4: believes in him. But still, it's it's it's and this
- 12:00Speaker 4: is for real, man, And these these are really fast
- 12:03Speaker 4: defensive players coming at you.
- 12:04Speaker 6: That's why I'm wondering if they'll try to slow the
- 12:06Speaker 6: game down. I'm not sure, but here's the stat right
- 12:08Speaker 6: now here.
- 12:08Speaker 4: Okay, now listen, you tell me when you want to
- 12:10Speaker 4: get to the musts to win this game. We will
- 12:14Speaker 4: do it as the show goes on. But I've got my.
- 12:16Speaker 6: List going since nineteen fifty Jared's did him will become
- 12:21Speaker 6: the seventh quarterback to start a playoff game without making
- 12:26Speaker 6: at least one start in the regular season. That's a
- 12:28Speaker 6: guy just coming off the bench cold. All right, Yeah,
- 12:33Speaker 6: I'll list here's the list right here, Jared's did him.
- 12:35Speaker 6: We'll be the seventh Taylor Heinike Washington in twenty twenty,
- 12:41Speaker 6: Connor Cook Raiders in twenty sixteen.
- 12:43Speaker 2: Oh that's right, that's when Derek Carr broke his l Yeah.
- 12:46Speaker 6: Joe Webb, Joe Webb, Vikings twenty twelve.
- 12:49Speaker 4: I don't even remember Joe.
- 12:51Speaker 6: Webb, Frank Reich, Bills nineteen ninety two. I remember Frank
- 12:56Speaker 6: Gary Danielson of the Lions. Your Lions in nineteen eighty three.
- 13:00Speaker 2: Made the playoffs.
- 13:01Speaker 6: Yeah, they did playoffs. Roger Staubach seventy two Cowboys. Okay,
- 13:06Speaker 6: now you've got that list. How many of those quarterbacks
- 13:09Speaker 6: I just mentioned making their first starts of the season
- 13:12Speaker 6: in the postseason, how many of those actually won the game? Heinekey, Heinikey, Cook, Webb,
- 13:21Speaker 6: Danielson in Stobo web did not?
- 13:25Speaker 2: Heinikey Danielson was a Lions game, so now he didn't win.
- 13:28Speaker 4: Yep, Heinikey did he win. I'm trying to think it's
- 13:33Speaker 4: gotta be if somebody did win, it's either starback and
- 13:36Speaker 4: Heinekey won two or both. But I don't know.
- 13:40Speaker 2: Reich one, right, isn't that the game?
- 13:43Speaker 6: Comeback?
- 13:44Speaker 7: All right?
- 13:44Speaker 2: Go ahead me.
- 13:45Speaker 6: The answer is Frank Reich, and that's only it. Frank
- 13:48Speaker 6: is the only quarterback on that list who's actually won
- 13:50Speaker 6: a playoff game without having made a start in the
- 13:53Speaker 6: regular season, and that was one of the most ridiculous
- 13:57Speaker 6: wins in the NFL history that feed sure a thirty
- 14:02Speaker 6: was it thirty eight to three deficit something like that. Yeah,
- 14:06Speaker 6: I need to know the exact score of that game.
- 14:08Speaker 6: It was the most ridiculous comeback. I remember watching it
- 14:12Speaker 6: saying is this happening?
- 14:14Speaker 4: It was against Warren Moon in the Houston Oil.
- 14:17Speaker 6: It was against the mouse Davis and the run and shoot.
- 14:22Speaker 2: The thirty two point comeback, So.
- 14:24Speaker 6: Thirty five to three. It was thirty five to three,
- 14:30Speaker 6: and they came back to win that game.
- 14:33Speaker 2: Well, the NFL world has never heard a stick him before.
- 14:38Speaker 2: Throw him on the list.
- 14:39Speaker 6: And one of the reasons they were able to come
- 14:41Speaker 6: back is because of the Houston offense. Because it was
- 14:43Speaker 6: just so pass happy and crazy. They went three and
- 14:47Speaker 6: out a few times in the second half. They couldn't
- 14:50Speaker 6: sustain a drive. And when you can't sustain a drive,
- 14:54Speaker 6: it allows a team to get back in the game,
- 14:56Speaker 6: which is why again Motion and you and I will
- 14:59Speaker 6: have our thoughts throughout this show. I the more I
- 15:02Speaker 6: look at this, the more I think vrabel is gonna
- 15:04Speaker 6: be so conservative and just run, run, run. I just
- 15:08Speaker 6: don't see why they would try to even entertain turning
- 15:12Speaker 6: the ball over when they don't have.
- 15:14Speaker 4: To yeah again. I just I would think that the
- 15:18Speaker 4: more you give Stidham an opportunity to get comfortable and
- 15:20Speaker 4: make things happen, the more it can happen. So I
- 15:24Speaker 4: we'll find out what the game plan is from the
- 15:27Speaker 4: New England Patriots. But there's a lot going against Stidham.
- 15:31Speaker 4: But this can happen again. I got my list. We'll
- 15:34Speaker 4: start to filter that list out as the game goes on.
- 15:37Speaker 4: It's gonna be okay.
- 15:38Speaker 2: I think we'll get to this in a second.
- 15:40Speaker 4: Stick stick them.
- 15:41Speaker 2: It's a bud Light Football Friday. Bud Light the official

- 16:48Speaker 2: Loyal listener to the program. Lance, So this is Lance
- 16:52Speaker 2: Sanderson from Mile High Hoddel. He said, here's the biggest
- 16:55Speaker 2: stat you guys need to know. Since two thousand, there
- 16:58Speaker 2: have been only two players to have three sound and
- 17:00Speaker 2: two forced fumbles in the same playoff game. One is
- 17:04Speaker 2: always the pass rusher from the Chargers and the other
- 17:09Speaker 2: is Will Anderson of the Texans, both of whom did
- 17:13Speaker 2: that against the Patriots in the last twelve days. Yeah,
- 17:16Speaker 2: what do the Broncos do best?
- 17:18Speaker 4: They get after the quarterback.
- 17:21Speaker 6: The other stat is that the Broncos have the most
- 17:24Speaker 6: sacks in the NFL and the Patriots have a fair
- 17:27Speaker 6: share of sax allowed. It is the largest disparity of
- 17:31Speaker 6: sacks taking sax allowed in NFL playoff history.
- 17:37Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I know you said that. The You
- 17:41Speaker 2: know what's funny they I know the Patriots can run
- 17:44Speaker 2: the football. They they didn't do it like at an
- 17:49Speaker 2: elite level this year. They're very capable, and they have
- 17:51Speaker 2: good backs and Trayvon Henderson and Ramandre Stevenson. Neither of
- 17:55Speaker 2: them ran for a thousand yards. Neither they What.
- 18:00Speaker 4: Did they run for combined? Brett, I'll look it up.
- 18:05Speaker 2: I don't think it's that far off from the Broncos,
- 18:07Speaker 2: to be honest with you, I really don't. As far
- 18:10Speaker 2: as you're talking about as a team.
- 18:12Speaker 7: What did they run for this year?
- 18:13Speaker 4: Well?
- 18:13Speaker 7: Sure?
- 18:14Speaker 4: Or were those just how about those two backs together combined?
- 18:18Speaker 2: So their leading rusher was that's postseason, let's go regular
- 18:25Speaker 2: season was Henderson. He had nine hundred and eleven. Okay,
- 18:28Speaker 2: Stevenson had six hundred and three.
- 18:30Speaker 4: Okay, It's not just that that's so that's essentially over
- 18:36Speaker 4: fifteen hundred yards of rushing with those two backs.
- 18:39Speaker 6: It's not just the production, though, it's the pounding and
- 18:43Speaker 6: pounding and pounding.
- 18:45Speaker 4: Br You ever been pounded and pounded and pounded.
- 18:47Speaker 2: Can't say I've had the plagure.
- 18:49Speaker 6: That's what it is. It's the fact that they are
- 18:51Speaker 6: relentless in that endeavor and they use it to set
- 18:56Speaker 6: up their passing game. They use it legit to set
- 18:59Speaker 6: it up.
- 19:01Speaker 4: If we're gonna be, if we're gonna be. I don't
- 19:03Speaker 4: know if you want me to be real or not,
- 19:04Speaker 4: because I have my list of how things can go
- 19:07Speaker 4: down for the Broncos and what they have to do,
- 19:08Speaker 4: and these are musts, and I want to get to
- 19:11Speaker 4: it a little bit later on. Just do it now.
- 19:13Speaker 4: I'm still fixing it. I'm just tweaking it a little bit.
- 19:15Speaker 4: Would you stop it?
- 19:16Speaker 2: I'm just digging into the numbers here.
- 19:18Speaker 4: Yeah, sure, dig.
- 19:21Speaker 2: Henderson and Stevenson combined had two or I'm sorry, three
- 19:26Speaker 2: hundred and ten carries for fifteen hundred and fifteen yards. Essentially,
- 19:34Speaker 2: Dobbins and Harvey had two hundred and ninety nine carries
- 19:40Speaker 2: for thirteen hundred and some yards. Like they're they're not
- 19:43Speaker 2: that far off as far as production. The biggest difference here,
- 19:47Speaker 2: and again I mentioned this earlier. I just didn't have
- 19:49Speaker 2: a lot of hope that it would happen. But maybe
- 19:50Speaker 2: it's gonna two straight days of JK Dobbins in pads.
- 19:55Speaker 2: You guys remember the stats that Legwell spat it off
- 19:57Speaker 2: to us yesterday about uh JK Dobbin and what's happened
- 20:00Speaker 2: to the running game before and after his injury, that
- 20:04Speaker 2: he is still JK two hundred and thirty two yards
- 20:09Speaker 2: clear of RJ. Harvey despite the fact that he's only
- 20:12Speaker 2: played in ten games. His amount of ten yard runs
- 20:16Speaker 2: I can't remember the exact stat that led you threw
- 20:18Speaker 2: out there, but it's a ton more than Jaleel and
- 20:21Speaker 2: r J. Harvey combined the twenty plus yard runs this season.
- 20:25Speaker 2: JK Dobbins has five that still leads the team RJ.
- 20:28Speaker 2: Harvey's at three. He is such a massive difference maker.
- 20:33Speaker 2: If nothing else, it gives Sean Payton the confidence to
- 20:38Speaker 2: stick with the run game more than he did, certainly
- 20:41Speaker 2: last week where he gave Harvey and McLaughlin ten combined runs.
- 20:45Speaker 2: I almost wonder, by the way, do you think that
- 20:48Speaker 2: they only ran ten times with your running backs last
- 20:51Speaker 2: week because it wasn't effective? Or was Sean Payton pissed
- 20:55Speaker 2: off because both of them put the ball on the turf.
- 20:58Speaker 4: Probably a little bit of both.
- 21:00Speaker 2: I mean in both instances you got the ball back.
- 21:02Speaker 2: One called back to doing off side, the other he's
- 21:05Speaker 2: jumped on it.
- 21:06Speaker 4: But you know, Brett, the way I look at the
- 21:08Speaker 4: running game, and we even talking to Jeff Legwall about it, VIC,
- 21:11Speaker 4: it's like, well, can't they or won't they? Well, I
- 21:14Speaker 4: think on any given or or is the third option?
- 21:18Speaker 4: Now Sean's pissed at both his backs. Hey, yeah, can't,
- 21:21Speaker 4: won't And now I hate you guys. I hate your
- 21:23Speaker 4: faces because you're putting it on the turf. I send
- 21:25Speaker 4: it to my buddy. The second that McLoughlin fumbled, this
- 21:27Speaker 4: is might is being an offside? I go, well, he's
- 21:29Speaker 4: not getting that. That's it. So I think, Brett, the
- 21:34Speaker 4: answer lies probably somewhere in between all of those. And
- 21:38Speaker 4: on any given week, any one of those does that
- 21:40Speaker 4: make sense? I think it depends on the situation. I mean,
- 21:44Speaker 4: could you last weekend have run the ball more effectively?
- 21:47Speaker 4: Or if you continue to pound the rock, could you
- 21:49Speaker 4: have done it against the Buffalo Bills. Maybe, But the
- 21:52Speaker 4: fact you put it on the turf, You're like, wait, wait,
- 21:55Speaker 4: ain't doing that. I trust my my guy under center
- 21:58Speaker 4: more than I trust these guys. Not the put it
- 22:00Speaker 4: on the turf.
- 22:00Speaker 2: You also don't have a backup plan, and your backup
- 22:02Speaker 2: plan last week was fine. I won't run the ball
- 22:05Speaker 2: with Harvey or McLoughlin. I'll do it with boh Well.
- 22:08Speaker 4: He was the leading rusher.
- 22:10Speaker 2: You know, I don't think you have that with Stidham,
- 22:12Speaker 2: despite him being the number one dual threat quarterback of
- 22:14Speaker 2: the twenty fifteen high school class. Despite that. It's a
- 22:23Speaker 2: fun noise. Sometimes it's a very easy insulting tone that
- 22:28Speaker 2: you can use. Everybody says something just going anyway? Most
- 22:40Speaker 2: do you have your list compiled? You keep talking about it?
- 22:42Speaker 2: Do you just want to do it?
- 22:43Speaker 4: Or you fine? Okay, go I need some list music
- 22:46Speaker 4: though I can't do with that list music. And I
- 22:48Speaker 4: want to see if you guys agree these are now
- 22:54Speaker 4: don't start counting, ye I need you to agree or
- 22:58Speaker 4: disagree with me. But these are musts for a Denver
- 23:00Speaker 4: Bronson's history.
- 23:01Speaker 2: These are necessities for a win. Will column.
- 23:07Speaker 4: Number one music is so cliche? Yeah, you know what,
- 23:10Speaker 4: Nelly kill kill it. I we got to restart this
- 23:12Speaker 4: whole thing. I'd rather have scorpions in the background. To
- 23:14Speaker 4: be honest with you, of course you would. Why don't
- 23:16Speaker 4: we just do that because because.
- 23:21Speaker 7: Okay, here's your damn music.
- 23:24Speaker 4: I'm getting the hell off this program right now. I'm
- 23:26Speaker 4: telling you it's Friday. I'm getting the hell out of here.
- 23:28Speaker 4: I got things to do tonight. It's a big as
- 23:30Speaker 4: game against Philly. I'll give you the keys a little
- 23:32Speaker 4: bit later. Yeah, wait, you're serious, Just go through now,
- 23:40Speaker 4: kill you all right? Number one? I bet god she
- 23:43Speaker 4: would be better with music.
- 23:44Speaker 2: I'm just saying, give him a second.
- 23:46Speaker 4: No, come on, Vic is so right about this? You
- 23:49Speaker 4: must yeah, all right, you must get after Drake May.
- 23:55Speaker 4: You've got to get in Drake May's jock. Vic, You've
- 23:58Speaker 4: been in a lot of jocks. Here's what you gotta
- 24:00Speaker 4: do it. You gotta get in his jock. You gotta
- 24:02Speaker 4: set up shop, right, you gotta live there. You gotta
- 24:04Speaker 4: live there. You gotta get your new fridge with the icemaker,
- 24:08Speaker 4: all this kind of stuff in his jock all day long.
- 24:10Speaker 4: Because this guy, God's honest truth, folks. He's an MVP
- 24:15Speaker 4: candidate quarterback and you must get on it because he's
- 24:18Speaker 4: got a propensity to put that ball on the turf.
- 24:21Speaker 4: He really does. If there's one thing about Drake made
- 24:23Speaker 4: that he doesn't do well. It's hanging on to the football,
- 24:26Speaker 4: so you must get after him. That just coincides with
- 24:28Speaker 4: it what you've been saying.
- 24:29Speaker 6: Brett may Day.
- 24:30Speaker 4: It's may Day may Day. It's the best thing that
- 24:32Speaker 4: you do as a team.
- 24:33Speaker 2: Yes, it's your number one asset as a roster. Again,
- 24:36Speaker 2: if you guys miss this, the Broncos have sacked quarterbacks
- 24:41Speaker 2: this year at minimum twenty two times more than anybody
- 24:45Speaker 2: else in the postseason. Twenty two times more.
- 24:48Speaker 4: Right, it's amazing. Number two. Let's get okay, let's try
- 24:55Speaker 4: to get to the offensive side of the ball. Now, Vick,
- 24:57Speaker 4: you've got to try to run it. You have to
- 24:59Speaker 4: try and if JK can play, oh thank you heavens above.
- 25:04Speaker 4: But you've got to try to run the ball because
- 25:06Speaker 4: I think the key to this game with Stidham coming
- 25:09Speaker 4: in is about ball control. You just simply cannot keep
- 25:13Speaker 4: giving the ball back to the Patriots offense because again, Vic,
- 25:17Speaker 4: overall this season in the regular season, they were number
- 25:20Speaker 4: six overall rushing the ball in the league. They were
- 25:23Speaker 4: number four passing. This is a top five offense, top
- 25:27Speaker 4: three offense in the National Football League. And if you
- 25:31Speaker 4: give them enough chances they're gonna hurt you, even with
- 25:33Speaker 4: your good defense. So you've got to try to run
- 25:36Speaker 4: the ball.
- 25:36Speaker 2: Not to mention it helps you on third downs get
- 25:38Speaker 2: into more manageable positions. If you can run the football,
- 25:41Speaker 2: effect is necessary for a backup.
- 25:43Speaker 4: All right, here comes the sticky side of things. This
- 25:47Speaker 4: cat has got to be efficient. Now. I don't know
- 25:50Speaker 4: what that looks like to you, Vick Lombardi. I know
- 25:52Speaker 4: you want to go pass happy. I don't know if
- 25:54Speaker 4: you want to go strictly vertical somewhat vertical. I think
- 25:58Speaker 4: vertical has got to be a part of the game.
- 25:59Speaker 4: But you know what you've got to do. You've got
- 26:01Speaker 4: to be smart when you try that, because mostly you
- 26:04Speaker 4: can't get yourself into oh my god, we've just tried
- 26:07Speaker 4: two passes beyond twenty yards and now it's third and ten.
- 26:11Speaker 4: You can't do that. You've got to be efficient with
- 26:14Speaker 4: that football. Control the ball, run it. If you can,
- 26:18Speaker 4: please run it. But if not, you've got to be
- 26:21Speaker 4: able to be efficient with the passing game. And that's
- 26:23Speaker 4: where Jared's did him. That's where Sean Payton says, you
- 26:25Speaker 4: know what, dude, I've coached you up all I can.
- 26:28Speaker 4: I'm calling the plays the best I can. Now you
- 26:30Speaker 4: have to execute. Yeah, you must win the turnover battle.
- 26:37Speaker 4: And coinciding with winning the turnover.
- 26:40Speaker 7: Battle, the team that's won in these playoffs has won
- 26:42Speaker 7: the turnover.
- 26:42Speaker 4: One thousand percent. And this is like no brainer type
- 26:45Speaker 4: of stuff. You've got to win the.
- 26:47Speaker 2: Turnover But they stand out. The Broncos have no chance
- 26:50Speaker 2: to win it. They lose that like they had no chance.
- 26:53Speaker 4: If the Buffalo Bill's even turned over two times less.
- 26:56Speaker 4: Let's say the Buffalo Bills lose the turnover less one
- 26:59Speaker 4: time less. They beat the Broncos last week. Yeah, and
- 27:02Speaker 4: that's how critical these turnovers are. But VIC, along with
- 27:06Speaker 4: the turnover battle. You know what you better do. You
- 27:09Speaker 4: better be disciplined. You cannot the Denver Broncos have a
- 27:14Speaker 4: propensity to take penalties. Oh my god. In the AFC
- 27:19Speaker 4: title game, if that yellow flag is waving all over
- 27:23Speaker 4: your face, you're in trouble, dude. Now you know what
- 27:26Speaker 4: you did. You did a pretty decent job last week
- 27:29Speaker 4: comparatively speaking to where you were in the regular season.
- 27:32Speaker 4: But you cannot give any freebies out. VICTI.
- 27:35Speaker 6: Well, let me give you an odd stat that perhaps
- 27:37Speaker 6: you're not aware of. Do you know what the twenty
- 27:39Speaker 6: fifteen Super Bowl champion Broncos have in common with this
- 27:42Speaker 6: year's Broncos most penalized their defenses defensively, the most penalized
- 27:47Speaker 6: teams in the National Food.
- 27:49Speaker 4: That means they're be an aggressive and kicking ass.
- 27:51Speaker 2: Roley Moss actually had a quote yesterday. They said, do
- 27:54Speaker 2: you think you're gonna get picked on this week? And
- 27:55Speaker 2: he goes, yes, the whole world knows I'm gonna get
- 27:57Speaker 2: picked on. That's what he said. And he knows it.
- 28:00Speaker 2: And when we're talking about penalties defensively and the ones
- 28:02Speaker 2: that could really buite you, I think we kind of
- 28:04Speaker 2: look at him because he's been guilty of it more
- 28:06Speaker 2: than anybody else. And I still think he's a really,
- 28:09Speaker 2: really good player. But put those boxing loves back on
- 28:13Speaker 2: during practice all week.
- 28:14Speaker 6: I love that attitude like he knows, yeah, he ain't blind.
- 28:19Speaker 4: Let me go back to what let me go back
- 28:20Speaker 4: to Stidham here real quick and his efficiency. The Patriots
- 28:25Speaker 4: defense is a top five defense in the National Football League,
- 28:28Speaker 4: is it not? Uh?
- 28:29Speaker 6: Currently, Let's see the numbers say they're ranked eighth overall
- 28:33Speaker 6: net yards per game.
- 28:34Speaker 4: Okay, that was in That was the that was in
- 28:36Speaker 4: the regular season, and they've only gotten better in the postseason.
- 28:39Speaker 4: They beat up Herbert and company, and they beat up
- 28:41Speaker 4: Stroud big time. And are we yeah CG. Strout had
- 28:45Speaker 4: a terrible game. How much of what the Patriots did?
- 28:48Speaker 6: He Yeah, they contributed to his bad game.
- 28:50Speaker 4: And the reason they do that, VIC, is because this
- 28:52Speaker 4: Patriots defense plays a lot of man and they're very aggressive.
- 28:56Speaker 4: They're a very aggressive defense. Now you may think, oh, well,
- 28:59Speaker 4: you know, do they get to the quarterback. They just
- 29:01Speaker 4: got a bunch of dudes, guys who fly around and
- 29:03Speaker 4: disrupt the game and make tackles. So you must be
- 29:07Speaker 4: efficient if you if they're overly aggressive at you, Vic,
- 29:11Speaker 4: you've got to take advantage. You've got to take advantage
- 29:13Speaker 4: of of you know, delayed draws, screen game, whatever it
- 29:18Speaker 4: may be. Let them, let them, you know, just take
- 29:22Speaker 4: advantage of what if they're gonna be aggressive, take advantage
- 29:25Speaker 4: of their aggressiveness. Go a little bit over the top here,
- 29:28Speaker 4: a little bit over here, this kind of thing. I mean,
- 29:30Speaker 4: pick them apart. And this is where City is gonna
- 29:32Speaker 4: have to be really really good. And finally, you've got
- 29:38Speaker 4: to match what the Patriots do in the red zone
- 29:40Speaker 4: because they're a good red zone team, and they put
- 29:43Speaker 4: the ball in the end zone. Where were they in
- 29:45Speaker 4: scoring overall VIC points per game? Offensively, where were.
- 29:48Speaker 6: They regular season points per game?
- 29:50Speaker 7: They were Hold on a second, I've got it right here.
- 29:53Speaker 7: Points per game.
- 29:53Speaker 6: They were second in the.
- 29:54Speaker 4: National second in the nationals football.
- 29:57Speaker 6: Twenty nine points a game.
- 29:58Speaker 4: And which is up eight point eight if I'm not mistaken. Yep, dude,
- 30:03Speaker 4: they put it in the end zone. And if you
- 30:05Speaker 4: get to the red zone and you stall and you
- 30:09Speaker 4: don't put it in the end zone and they do,
- 30:11Speaker 4: you're dead.
- 30:12Speaker 6: You know they're d dead. You just said something. There
- 30:14Speaker 6: are two numbers in which the Patriots struggle.
- 30:17Speaker 7: Two areas.
- 30:19Speaker 6: Their red zone defense is not good thirtieth in the
- 30:23Speaker 6: National Football League, exactly right. They're soft in the red zone,
- 30:26Speaker 6: exactly right.
- 30:27Speaker 4: So it's setting up well for you to match them
- 30:30Speaker 4: in that category. Because it's a good football team. I
- 30:34Speaker 4: don't want to pretend that it's not. It's a very
- 30:36Speaker 4: good team on both sides of the ball. But if
- 30:38Speaker 4: you do all these things, I think you're gonna win
- 30:42Speaker 4: the game. If you do Moses six rules. And then
- 30:46Speaker 4: I add a couple of little thought processes on the way.
- 30:49Speaker 4: But if you do these six things and I'm gonna
- 30:52Speaker 4: combine my turnover battle with my discipline, you're gonna win.
- 30:56Speaker 2: Like Stidham, I think it's imperative that he if there's
- 31:00Speaker 2: one thing that we know from four starts that he's had,
- 31:05Speaker 2: which again talk about how big is this sample size
- 31:08Speaker 2: and what can you make of that and all that
- 31:10Speaker 2: different stuff. One thing about him is that he is,
- 31:14Speaker 2: in his four starts very capable of turning the ball over.
- 31:18Speaker 2: He does do that. I need to have one or
- 31:22Speaker 2: less turnovers in this game, yes, because that'll give you
- 31:26Speaker 2: a chance to win the turnover battle, and I think
- 31:28Speaker 2: that gives you a chance to win the game. There's
- 31:29Speaker 2: a lot more to break down in this bud light football.
- 31:32Speaker 4: So what do you think? Good? I was laying in
- 31:35Speaker 4: bed at night, coughing myself awake, thinking about these things.
- 31:39Speaker 6: What do I think? I think that the last two
- 31:41Speaker 6: days you've been persecuted by so many of our listeners
- 31:45Speaker 6: saying why are you such a negative nelly that you
- 31:47Speaker 6: changed your tune all in one night? That's what I think.
- 31:50Speaker 4: Okay, Well, you're full of crap, because VIC what they
- 31:53Speaker 4: have to do is execute. If they execute correctly. Absolutely,
- 31:59Speaker 4: they can win this game. But they're going in. They're
- 32:01Speaker 4: going in as the dog and they must execute.
- 32:04Speaker 6: Flax, says Moser. Hasn't done that much show prep since
- 32:08Speaker 6: the George and Tammy series.
- 32:13Speaker 2: I forget about John Tanny. They're trying to take it
- 32:17Speaker 2: from take it from What Are Fire?
- 32:22Speaker 6: Remember the bet that if they Mosa lost the bet
- 32:25Speaker 6: he had to watch yeah and write a report.
- 32:28Speaker 2: Well do you remember when I had to do eighty
- 32:30Speaker 2: for Brady?
- 32:32Speaker 4: Yeah? That sucked, didn't it.
- 32:34Speaker 2: What is George and Tammy about?
- 32:35Speaker 6: Again?
- 32:35Speaker 2: What is that?
- 32:36Speaker 4: George Jones and Tammy? Why not?
- 32:39Speaker 2: What do you mean?
- 32:40Speaker 4: What's it about?
- 32:41Speaker 7: To stand by your man?
- 32:42Speaker 4: Yeah, you're the only one who watched it, dude, because
- 32:44Speaker 4: you were forced to loving her today?
- 32:49Speaker 2: You know, that's what the Patriots are trying to read.
- 32:51Speaker 4: The bond is.
- 32:54Speaker 2: The Patriots are trying to take it from us? What
- 32:56Speaker 2: are far Fire? And who is at Michael Shannon who
- 33:00Speaker 2: plays him?
- 33:00Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 33:00Speaker 2: I love Michael Shannon. He's a great actor. I have
- 33:02Speaker 2: no interest in watching that show, though. Mike Sandford is
- 33:06Speaker 2: going to want you to watch the Nuggets game against
- 33:10Speaker 2: Giannis in the Bucks tonight with him at the view
- 33:13Speaker 2: house in DTC tip off at seven point thirty. It's
- 33:16Speaker 2: brought to you by Kendall Jackson, the official wine partner
- 33:19Speaker 2: of the Denver Nuggets. Elevate your game with a glass
- 33:21Speaker 2: of Kendall Jackson's award winning lineup of sustainably grown California'll
- 33:26Speaker 2: hold on.
- 33:28Speaker 4: So he doesn't want you to watch the Abs in Philly. Yeah,
- 33:32Speaker 4: he wants you to watch the Nuggets and the Bucks.
- 33:34Speaker 2: No, I'm sure have both going on. But it's a
- 33:37Speaker 2: Nuggets viewing party.
- 33:38Speaker 4: You know. Man, that sounds like that sounds like pretty Uh,
- 33:44Speaker 4: that's pretty ostentatious on his part. I don't like it. Sandford,
- 33:48Speaker 4: go say hi to him.
- 33:49Speaker 2: By the way, that view house, that upstairs one in
- 33:51Speaker 2: DTC is like the most beautiful view house, but it's
- 33:55Speaker 2: like the most beautiful view of the mound range three
- 33:58Speaker 2: oh three five four nine two five. After this, I
- 34:01Speaker 2: was quick, Nelly, quick turn around. It's a bud Light
- 34:04Speaker 2: football Friday. I don't know what this is, just a
- 34:06Speaker 2: quick aside here and then we'll get the more football.
- 34:10Speaker 2: As I start to age and get older, I notice
- 34:12Speaker 2: myself being more interested in things that I was not
- 34:15Speaker 2: interested in before.
- 34:19Speaker 4: You do not have my permission, don't need it.
- 34:22Speaker 2: If you're gonna bother me every single break with this,
- 34:24Speaker 2: then I'm going to bring it up in the air.
- 34:27Speaker 2: So I've been hit with like the you know, obviously
- 34:30Speaker 2: the golf bug got me. Yeah, I'm now watching show.
- 34:35Speaker 2: We have World War two documentaries in color. Those have
- 34:39Speaker 2: now gotten me. What will never happen is what Mosher
- 34:43Speaker 2: showed me every day during breaks is his video bird
- 34:47Speaker 2: feeder outside his house. I don't care about. And he goes,
- 34:50Speaker 2: he said to me, Vicky goes, you want to see it?
- 34:52Speaker 2: I said, no, I don't care, and he throws it
- 34:55Speaker 2: at my face. Anyway, he goes, it's a red finch, like,
- 34:58Speaker 2: oh great, Vic.
- 35:01Speaker 6: The one good thing about it, though, is you get
- 35:02Speaker 6: to say the bird names, because Moje will come over
- 35:04Speaker 6: and be.
- 35:04Speaker 4: Like, hey, Nelly, look at this red breasted tit willow,
- 35:10Speaker 4: black capped chickadee.
- 35:11Speaker 6: I am so thankful that I get to do the
- 35:14Speaker 6: show from home most of the time.
- 35:16Speaker 4: I'm gonna start sending you videos of my bird. You
- 35:18Speaker 4: would drive me crazy with your little You know what's
- 35:22Speaker 4: so funny. I got this video bird feeder from my
- 35:24Speaker 4: wife for Chris.
- 35:26Speaker 2: I don't care I don't cared.
- 35:28Speaker 4: You care, Brett. My sister also got me a video
- 35:31Speaker 4: bird feeder, and she got my brother in law, Bob,
- 35:35Speaker 4: you know brother in law Bob. She got Bob a
- 35:37Speaker 4: video bird feeder too, So there were three video bird
- 35:41Speaker 4: feeders we only needed to. I kept the one that
- 35:43Speaker 4: my wife gave me and I told her to take
- 35:45Speaker 4: her back. You really cool, though, man, I love it again.
- 35:48Speaker 7: You guys man, what an adventurous family.
- 35:51Speaker 2: If my wife got me a bird feeder for a
- 35:53Speaker 2: divorce were divorced, Yeah, no, me and my wife we
- 36:01Speaker 2: get gifts that we both enjoy, which is subby. I'm
- 36:04Speaker 2: gonna talk to your boy today. By the way, they
- 36:06Speaker 2: I need to get a sweat onweat. I had a
- 36:10Speaker 2: steamer room and my daughter decided to use it as
- 36:12Speaker 2: a playground, ripped it, and now I can't use it anymore.
- 36:14Speaker 6: So it's good to sweat every day.
- 36:15Speaker 2: You need to sweat. Sweating's good for you.
- 36:17Speaker 6: Now, good luck sweating this weekend. Most when you go
- 36:20Speaker 6: to Canada, it's gonna be minus one hundred.
- 36:22Speaker 4: That's gonna be tough, bro, It's gonna be really.
- 36:24Speaker 2: Somebody mentioned this, They go, why are you guys not
- 36:26Speaker 2: talking about the weather, and I don't think the weather
- 36:29Speaker 2: is gonna be a factor at all.
- 36:30Speaker 4: I do. It's gonna be cold, it's cold. It's not
- 36:34Speaker 4: gonna be snow snowy today. It's gonna be it's I
- 36:37Speaker 4: think it's a high of twenty one.
- 36:39Speaker 2: Hang on, if you talk to football players. From my understanding,
- 36:42Speaker 2: wind affects the game in a big way. Snow affects
- 36:46Speaker 2: the game in a big way. Rain affects the game
- 36:48Speaker 2: in a big way. Cold does not.
- 36:50Speaker 6: Yes, it does. Oh, people drop passes? Did you did
- 36:52Speaker 6: you watch New England versus Houston.
- 36:55Speaker 2: I understand that it's it's a factor, but I think
- 36:58Speaker 2: most people would say that cold doesn't have that much
- 37:01Speaker 2: of an effect. Now if they're playing the Dolphins or something,
- 37:05Speaker 2: maybe playing New England, maybe there's.
- 37:08Speaker 6: Ever a low of six a high of twenty four,
- 37:11Speaker 6: which means game time temperatures will probably be in the teens. Yes,
- 37:17Speaker 6: and I'm telling you right now, it's a factor catching
- 37:19Speaker 6: the ball, it's a factor holding the ball. It's a factor.
- 37:23Speaker 4: It just is.
- 37:25Speaker 2: Hey, Nelly gets Sandford on the horn. I know he's up.
- 37:27Speaker 2: He's doing something right now, probably drawing up game plans
- 37:30Speaker 2: for eight months from now. Get Sandford on the phone.
- 37:33Speaker 2: I want to see what he thinks on this.
- 37:35Speaker 6: Wants to play tough guy. It's funny about this. Everybody
- 37:37Speaker 6: wants to play tough guy.
- 37:39Speaker 4: H good.
- 37:42Speaker 6: Your body doesn't move at the same pace when it's
- 37:47Speaker 6: seventeen degrees versus sixty seven.
- 37:50Speaker 4: Yeah, Brett. It says it's going to be seven degrees
- 37:52Speaker 4: at its coldest in the middle of the morning, like
- 37:55Speaker 4: early morning high of twenty two and pm snowshowers on Sunday.
- 38:00Speaker 4: So that means is the game moves along, that stuff
- 38:03Speaker 4: is gonna start coming in.
- 38:04Speaker 3: Man.
- 38:05Speaker 6: Someone says it's all mental, Vic, It's not all mental.
- 38:07Speaker 6: Did you guys? Did you guys miss the Broncos Ravens
- 38:10Speaker 6: game here when it was really really cold road?
- 38:16Speaker 7: Do you remember?
- 38:18Speaker 6: Am I the only one remembers this stuff. Yes, the
- 38:22Speaker 6: cold is a factor. Some people could just look if
- 38:25Speaker 6: I were playing in this game. You're done.
- 38:28Speaker 4: It's over.
- 38:28Speaker 2: Well, let's head out to the Ramos Law hot line.
- 38:30Speaker 2: Car accident, eating ramas Law medical doctor and atturning ramas
- 38:33Speaker 2: Law dot Com. We just told you Mike Sanford is
- 38:34Speaker 2: going to be at the Viewhouse in DTC tonight for
- 38:37Speaker 2: the Nuggets watch party as they take on Giannis and
- 38:39Speaker 2: the Bucks. But he joined us.
- 38:40Speaker 3: Now, Hello coach, Good morning gentlemen. And I am currently
- 38:45Speaker 3: on a football field where it is snowing and it
- 38:50Speaker 3: is cold and my handburns aren't operating correctly. And uh yeah,
- 38:56Speaker 3: so Brett, you saying that the weather is not going
- 38:59Speaker 3: to be a factory on Sunday. Well, it's pretty consistent
- 39:02Speaker 3: with all your other takes. Not good.
- 39:04Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you, thank you very much.
- 39:08Speaker 6: I just coaches say it, players say it, like you know,
- 39:12Speaker 6: the Rams said it going to Chicago all the weather's
- 39:14Speaker 6: not a factor.
- 39:15Speaker 4: They just say it, but it is.
- 39:17Speaker 6: It's always a factor.
- 39:18Speaker 2: Just put tyenne Pepper in your socks.
- 39:20Speaker 7: I heard that works, no question.
- 39:23Speaker 3: Let's just be honest. If the Rams, that juggernaut machine
- 39:26Speaker 3: of an offensive unit with a healthy DeVante Adams and
- 39:29Speaker 3: a healthy Puka and Nakua, tell me that that game
- 39:32Speaker 3: would not have been at least a fourteen point separation
- 39:36Speaker 3: had it been in perfect weather.
- 39:38Speaker 7: Of course, we're not dumb.
- 39:39Speaker 6: And now the question is who has the advantage? Is
- 39:42Speaker 6: it is it?
- 39:44Speaker 4: Who is it?
- 39:45Speaker 3: I would always say Vick like the team that typically
- 39:47Speaker 3: has the advantage is the team that maybe either has
- 39:51Speaker 3: some adversity or just a slight bit of a you know,
- 39:55Speaker 3: a younger quarterback or not even younger, but maybe more inexperienced,
- 40:00Speaker 3: because you know, there's a certain way that Josh McDaniels
- 40:03Speaker 3: calls the game and people want to say they're going
- 40:05Speaker 3: to run the football. That's a Mike Vrabel deal, right,
- 40:08Speaker 3: Mike Rabel, meathead defensive guy, probably gets on the headsets
- 40:12Speaker 3: Like I've had millions of times in my career, some
- 40:14Speaker 3: head coach telling me to run the football, and I
- 40:17Speaker 3: think that's happening. But at the end of the day,
- 40:19Speaker 3: Mike or Mike, m Josh McDaniel, excuse me. He is
- 40:23Speaker 3: a guy that wants to throw the football. He won
- 40:26Speaker 3: Super Bowls with high volume throwing, and I think that
- 40:29Speaker 3: that's Drake May needs to get into a rhythm kind
- 40:32Speaker 3: of similar to how Sean Payton likes to get his
- 40:34Speaker 3: quarterbacks into rhythm, which is a lot of the short
- 40:36Speaker 3: passing game. And you know, you know, I'm not a
- 40:39Speaker 3: believer in Drake May yet, right doesn't mean he can't
- 40:43Speaker 3: get there. But how many big spots has he been
- 40:46Speaker 3: the reason why the Patriots won a game against the
- 40:49Speaker 3: big team this is there's a lot of pressure on
- 40:52Speaker 3: Drake May, and frankly, I think there's even more pressure.
- 40:55Speaker 3: He who has the most pressure in the entire uh
- 40:57Speaker 3: between all the teams and on both sides of the field.
- 41:01Speaker 3: I think it's Josh McDaniels coming back to the scene
- 41:03Speaker 3: of the crime and he's got to deliver the goods man.
- 41:05Speaker 3: Can he do it without Tom Brady? I don't know.
- 41:08Speaker 3: He's never been able to.
- 41:09Speaker 2: Can I ask you something about Drake May real quick,
- 41:11Speaker 2: because you said you're you're not a believer yet. Does
- 41:14Speaker 2: that mean that you see something in his game that
- 41:16Speaker 2: you think is not good enough? Or is that is
- 41:19Speaker 2: it you're not a believer because you just haven't seen
- 41:22Speaker 2: it yet.
- 41:24Speaker 3: Here's the moment to me that made me doubt it
- 41:29Speaker 3: was Buffalo at New England. I think it was like
- 41:32Speaker 3: week fifteen with fourteen weeks fifteen and he got the
- 41:35Speaker 3: football back weather. It wasn't great if you remember, right,
- 41:39Speaker 3: Josh Allen looking like that dude that a lot of
- 41:42Speaker 3: people want him to be, leads a big drive. Drake
- 41:45Speaker 3: May inherits the football right around two minutes. I think
- 41:47Speaker 3: it's like a minute forty something to go. He looked
- 41:51Speaker 3: like it was too big for him. And you know
- 41:53Speaker 3: who has not looked like it's been too big for
- 41:55Speaker 3: him in that moment is the guy that was drafted
- 41:58Speaker 3: how many spots after him? Was like ten spots after him. Yeah,
- 42:01Speaker 3: and that's bone X.
- 42:03Speaker 6: You know, coach. I said something yesterday and I think
- 42:05Speaker 6: you're echoing my sentiments here because it drew a big
- 42:09Speaker 6: debate on the show. Moser kept talking about Drake May
- 42:12Speaker 6: and I said, Drake May's not even the guy I
- 42:14Speaker 6: fear most about New England. He's not because if Tom Brady,
- 42:18Speaker 6: the greatest quarterback who's ever lived, could never win a
- 42:22Speaker 6: game in the playoffs in Denver, all right, he could not.
- 42:25Speaker 6: He was zero and three in Denver, what makes you
- 42:28Speaker 6: think Drake May's gonna waltz in here and get it done?
- 42:30Speaker 4: Why?
- 42:31Speaker 8: I mean, he has to face his Broncos defense. He
- 42:34Speaker 8: has to prove it, not the other way around, not
- 42:36Speaker 8: the other way. He has to prove it. Tom Brady
- 42:39Speaker 8: couldn't do it. Tom Brady couldn't do it either.
- 42:42Speaker 6: That's a big deal.
- 42:45Speaker 3: It absolutely is a big deal. And I think it's
- 42:47Speaker 3: a really good point. You know, obviously, the national narrative,
- 42:50Speaker 3: which is you know, the Broncos don't stand a chance
- 42:54Speaker 3: is simply because of the quarterback position. But you know,
- 42:57Speaker 3: we know from being around training camp every day. You
- 43:00Speaker 3: guys were there every single day. Is the Broncos in
- 43:03Speaker 3: its current form reliant upon Hall of Fame quarterback play
- 43:07Speaker 3: even in the slightest Nope, the answer to that is no.
- 43:10Speaker 3: But you know what, if the Broncos can just get
- 43:13Speaker 3: this game into deep waters, man find a way to
- 43:15Speaker 3: get it deep into the fourth I think that Drake
- 43:18Speaker 3: May is going to be gripping it tighter then you'd
- 43:21Speaker 3: see Jared Stidham gripping it. And the reason for that
- 43:24Speaker 3: is is Jared Stidham is kind of playing. And I
- 43:26Speaker 3: heard Brett say this earlier today. He's planned the house
- 43:28Speaker 3: money in a sense, you know, and if he does
- 43:31Speaker 3: deliver the goods in that moment, guess what his life
- 43:34Speaker 3: changed Forever? He'll be He'll be He'll be what a
- 43:37Speaker 3: He'll be one hundred million dollars quarterback probably if he
- 43:39Speaker 3: goes too and oh and he's next too, right, yeah,
- 43:41Speaker 3: And that's part of the reality to do a situation.
- 43:43Speaker 3: How cool is that for him?
- 43:45Speaker 4: Oh?
- 43:45Speaker 3: Wait, what if it all goes bad? Oh, I'm still
- 43:47Speaker 3: the highest paid backup quarterback in the NFL. You know,
- 43:50Speaker 3: two million plus per pretty good life, right? How many
- 43:52Speaker 3: of us listening right now would love to be two
- 43:54Speaker 3: two million per is the worst case scenario.
- 43:57Speaker 2: Mike Stanford, you can see him tonight at the viewhouse
- 43:59Speaker 2: and a TC for the Nuggets watch party against the Bucks.
- 44:03Speaker 4: Appreciate it. Hey, whoa whoa whoa coach? You realize Also,
- 44:07Speaker 4: I know your Nuggets watch party. You realize the Abs
- 44:10Speaker 4: dropped the puck against Philly at the same time, right,
- 44:13Speaker 4: I do?
- 44:13Speaker 3: And you know what, you know, it's kind of crazy.
- 44:15Speaker 4: No, what's crazy?
- 44:16Speaker 3: Is it? Is it?
- 44:17Speaker 4: In?
- 44:18Speaker 3: In twenty twenty six? Moses, there are there is such
- 44:21Speaker 3: thing as like as being able to watch on multiple
- 44:23Speaker 3: devices or multiple televisions. Not everybody shows up to the
- 44:27Speaker 3: to the bar, and there's one tube that everybody's huddled around,
- 44:30Speaker 3: so we don't have to necessarily choose. Yeah, but between
- 44:32Speaker 3: Nuggets and Abs, so we can we can do multiple
- 44:34Speaker 3: things together tonight at the watch party, which, oh, by
- 44:37Speaker 3: the way, is presented by Kendall Jackson wine, which is
- 44:40Speaker 3: so perfect for me. It's a pinky out type of weekend. Boys,
- 44:44Speaker 3: I'm gonna be skipping that na with a pinky straight out,
- 44:47Speaker 3: and I got a little update for a year. I
- 44:49Speaker 3: think I heard somebody asking why I'm on the field here.
- 44:52Speaker 3: We just put down brand new turf and so there
- 44:55Speaker 3: I'm watching them lay the infill, which is like, uh,
- 44:58Speaker 3: you know the rubber beads though black annoying media that
- 45:02Speaker 3: my wife hates because my boys track into our house
- 45:05Speaker 3: and she cleans them up all day. So I had
- 45:08Speaker 3: a little bit of a role in the new field
- 45:10Speaker 3: at Valor. We're using a wood in pill that doesn't
- 45:14Speaker 3: get in your shoes. I'm watching them put it down
- 45:16Speaker 3: right now. And as I've been on this call, you
- 45:19Speaker 3: would love to hear this, vic because you love the cold.
- 45:22Speaker 3: You love snow. My beard is now has formed icicles
- 45:26Speaker 3: on it.
- 45:26Speaker 4: Nice.
- 45:27Speaker 7: Nice, It's that time of year.
- 45:29Speaker 6: Ye.
- 45:31Speaker 2: We'll get that pinky out and drink that veno tonight
- 45:33Speaker 2: that don't take care of.
- 45:35Speaker 6: Watch the Nuggets game, see a coach, Thanks buddy, go abs.
- 45:39Speaker 6: I appreciate you agreeing with me. Listen to me, anybody
- 45:44Speaker 6: out there. Coaches are always going to say the weather
- 45:46Speaker 6: doesn't matter because that's what coaches are paid to do.
- 45:48Speaker 6: Players are going to say it doesn't matter. If you
- 45:51Speaker 6: don't think the weather matters, you are drunk. The weather
- 45:55Speaker 6: always matters.
- 45:55Speaker 4: How about cooking the holl about cooking the football.
- 45:58Speaker 6: And the way to prepare for weather changes. They do
- 46:03Speaker 6: research on this. They have freaking scientists in the head coat.
- 46:07Speaker 6: They're preparing for all sorts of weather. Do not tell
- 46:11Speaker 6: me the cold doesn't matter. You're damn right it does.
- 46:14Speaker 6: Which team adapts to it better? We shall find out.
- 46:17Speaker 4: Hey, man, kicking the football in eighteen degrees ain't fun.
- 46:20Speaker 2: You know they got a dome right not yet right
- 46:24Speaker 2: not here, not.
- 46:25Speaker 4: Yet, not yet, not yet.
- 46:27Speaker 6: Let me ask you this. If this game we're played
- 46:29Speaker 6: in two thousand and thirty two, do you think they'd
- 46:32Speaker 6: close the roof?
- 46:33Speaker 4: Hell, yeah, they would thirty two.
- 46:36Speaker 2: What is it like four years from.
- 46:38Speaker 6: Now, it's gonna be ready in like two thousand and
- 46:40Speaker 6: thirty one, thirty two. Do you think they'll close the
- 46:43Speaker 6: roof if they have this game?
- 46:44Speaker 4: Dude?
- 46:44Speaker 2: If I make it, dude, If you said twenty and
- 46:48Speaker 2: thirty two, and my brain broke because that sounds that
- 46:51Speaker 2: sounded like it was twenty years from now, that's like
- 46:53Speaker 2: right around the corner. That is right around the corner.
- 46:56Speaker 6: Oh, both teams are playing in the same conditions.
- 47:00Speaker 7: Crying, who's crying?
- 47:01Speaker 4: Just tell me I'm gonna make it.
- 47:02Speaker 7: Crying.
- 47:02Speaker 6: I'm telling you it's a factor. Whoever prepares best for
- 47:05Speaker 6: it is going to win.
- 47:06Speaker 4: Tell me I'm going to make it to the new place.
- 47:08Speaker 2: It's a bud Light Football Friday. A whole much more
- 47:10Speaker 2: to breakdown, stick around
