• 0:28
  Speaker 1: super Bowl, but we'll break it all down. Put a
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: nice cap on the season. Kendra, how much food did
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: one thousand dollars get you at Hooters for the group?
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: What was your final wings and motts count?
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: It was insane.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: I actually have a video clip that I should put
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: up on Socials today of how much food we had.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: We had twelve people, lots of drinks, lots of food.
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: My final food count, I had eleven wings, two mots
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: of Rellistics, three buffalo shrimp, a basket of fries, half
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: of the you tray that came for the table, and
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: a piece.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Of chocolate cake and to diet cokes with lemon.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: I'm all disappointed in the amount of mozzarella sticks that
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: were consumed there, but yet I'll.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Bring us more or I would have had more.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: You were trying to share with the group. How many
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: people were you with?
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: There were twelve of us.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, stucky, I know you. You go pretty hard
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl every year. What was it like
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: on your end?
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: Ah? Terrible. I had a wholeful super Bowl because of
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: the fourth quarter. First, the whole day was awful. I
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: ordered I pre ordered one hundred and fifty wings for
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: the bar at I pre ordered them at noon and
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: they're supposed to get there at six at six thirty. Nothing,
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: I call and they didn't. They got the orders mixed
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: up and never got my order, so I had to
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: order again. Got that. They ended up getting there at
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: like eight thirty, and everyone was hungry. I bought so
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: many squares of this big of this big bar pool
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: and there was only like a one row and one
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: column left. I got both two's, so there's thousands of
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: dollars down the drain. And then my five like main
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: positions on the game, where I had the Seahawks under
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: twenty five and a half total points, which I thought
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: was gonna be good.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: That's what we usually think.
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: And then I had under three and a half touchbacks,
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: so Drake May throws a pick six after two short
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: field scores, there's a pick six and then there's a
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: touchback after that, so then I have Hunter Henry props,
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: so I'm like, all right, well, at least they're getting
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: blown out, and then the Pats are gonna met the ball.
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: He gets a concussion and doesn't come in for the
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: final dry, so it's Austin Hooper who gets the catches.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: So I had Henry over sixteen and a half longest catch.
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: His longest catch was sixteen. Henry over three and a
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: half receptions. He ends with three under twenty five and
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: a half Seahawks, they score a pick six to go
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: over in the fourth quarter under three and a half touchbacks.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: There's four touchbacks because of that pick six. And then
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: my other main position was over seven and a half
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: total runners in the game. There was seven and the
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: Patriot there was no sneak from Barner. There was no
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: no one else in the Patriots ran it. They didn't
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: get creative, so I lost. The only thing I got
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: right was under under longest punt return great, and then
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: I had some Barner touchdown, but I even had what
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: could have saved the day. I also had some all
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: unders which all got blown up.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: In the fourth and that was such an under game too.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: But it just they got aggressive. The Pats got aggressive
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: at the end, just trying.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: To yeah, and then he gets gets a concussion.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: So we all did. I think we all did pretty bad.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Did not hit the parlay Kendrick's leg of Drake May
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: throwing a pick the one to come through. I saw.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I saw the shit eating grin on Kendrick's face when
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: you mentioned Austin Hooper, because I know you were on Hoop,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: but I was going through the app. We all sucked.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: Okay, Also defensive MVP, which could have said that, but
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: any defensive player to gain MVP and guy.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Controude, So let's just let's just get to it. Let's
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: just get to the main dish. We'll start with the
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: MVP because Kendrick's all up in arms over the kicker
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: with a bunch of chip shots not getting m VP.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I think if anybody other than Kenneth Walker, and it
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: was pretty obvious throughout the game that if Seattle won,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: which they was never really a sweat, that they were
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: going to that Kenneth Walker was going to claim MVP.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: I thought, Devin Witherspoon, if you're just looking at things
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: schematically in the and and the basically the strip sack
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: that he had that sealed the game. I think you're
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: gonna make made a case for him. Why Jason Myers.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, other than the fact that the guy hit
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: a bunch of easy field goals, how does that equate
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: super Bowl MVP status.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: He had the most points, He did the things he
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: was supposed to do. Honestly, if it wasn't for the
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: absolute breakdown of the offensive line in the second.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Half, he he he.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: Should have been my MVP one because I think he
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: deserved it too. I think it would have been so funny.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: I just I needed it for the plot. It was
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: the super Bowl we deserved, it was the MVP we deserved,
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: and for the hilarity of it all. He had an
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: incredible first half, didn't miss extra points.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Also, his my king him or the punter like that?
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Then, dude, I knew that the game sucked when the
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: punter started getting credit for the way he spun the
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: ball off of his foot of like, this is not
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: going to go down as one of the all time
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: great super Bowls. I was good with the way that
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: it went. As far as Walker getting it, he is
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: the first running back that we've seen since Terrell Davis
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: in Super Bowl thirty two to take home Super Bowl MVP. Stucky.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Do you think the voters got it right?
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: I get I mean, I guess it was. It's a
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: tricky one. I mean, the fact that Walker had such
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: a successful day against that run defense, Uh, he deserves
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: his flowers for that. But I mean, honestly, it just
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: the way that that game went, it feels like it
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: should have been someone on the Seahawks defense. I mean,
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: Drake May was miserable. He now he ends with the
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: worst EPA in NFL history in any postseason. Uh, he
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: was terrible. Again. I don't know what the Patriots game
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: plan was. What what did they They didn't do anything creative, nothing.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: They they were so unprepared for that game. It was
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: the defense they were playing.
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: What what did they do for the past two weeks?
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: There was there was? They just drop back Drake May
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: with that offensive line after and just pray.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: Never mind the fact that Vrabel was one of the
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: most aggressive coaches in the NFL all year. They've got
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: a fourth and one midfield in the middle of that
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: game and they punt. That's not been their brand all year.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: It just felt like they played scared. They got away
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: from who they were. And I do think the Drake
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: may injury perhaps played a factor in this, because we
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: did see the story that he received in an injection
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: in his shoulder prior to the game. That means there
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: was some real pain there, and I felt like he
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: only got worse in terms of missing some throws that
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: he's been making all year as the game went along.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Is that toar doll shot starts to wear off. It
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: felt like that was an impact in my opinion, Kendra.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Has that been a big conversation around your area.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been a massive conversation, just because all of
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: the people who are known to be very in the
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: Patriots pocket up here were very adamant that it was fine.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: It wasn't going to be a story, it wasn't going
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: to be a difference maker. I'm sorry, if you take
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: a tour it all shot, it's not enough.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: It's not something you haven't been struggling with. It is.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: You don't choose to do that if something is not wrong.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: And I get that he was on the injury report
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: and they wound up, you know, taking him off and
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: saying he was fine.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, getting a tourt all shot.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Is not being fine, and so that's been like a
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: big conversation up here. The other thing that's been a
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: big conversation I watched up to the first half before
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: we hopped on here just to kind of make sure
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: that I wasn't seeing things that I wasn't in the
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: moment full of hooters and in a daze.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: But Will Campbell was terrible.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: That was one of the worst performances that I've seen
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: from him all season.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: On him and Drake both, but it starts with Will Campbell.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: The other big story up here has been that he
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: had just a disaster of a game and declined to
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: speak to the media last night. So it seems like
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: things are not all peachy Keene up here at the moment,
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: which you knew they would be, but in ways that Drake.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: I saw an interview with him in the national media.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: Is there a specific sector of the media that he declined.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Will Campbell declined the Will Campbell.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Okay, okay, sorry, yeah, uh no, he was You're right,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: he was terrible. The fact that guard like he is
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: a guard, the fact that he that May got sacked
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: six times, and Will Campbell couldn't block a tissue box
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: last night, and I and I still couldn't get home
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: on DeMarcus Lawrence to record a sack was a little
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: bit depressing.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: I know, I tailed you on that one. That was
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: that was very depressing considering everything.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Oh everybody else got involved. Don't worry. We had Devin
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: Witherspoon sacks and all of that stuck you. How much
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: of the lack of offensive firepower that we saw from
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: New England do you put on the injury that we
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: we tried to kind of brush under the rug.
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: I mean, here, here's a rebuttal to that, though, is
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: that to what kend was saying, may look like he
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: looked against all of the top five defenses he faced
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: in the playoffs. He's been horrible all playoffs and he's
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: horrible again. So and on this there was another step
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: up in class as far as the opposing defense that
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: he faced. So he was he was terrible literally from
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: start to finish in the playoffs again when he finally
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: had a face top defenses. So yeah, I there's there's
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: definitely questions moving forward about you know, he was inching
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: towards everyone saying that he might be a top five
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: quarterback in the league. We might have rushed the judgment
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: and in the end, the schedule one, the schedule arguers
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: all were proven right.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: And how much of his struggles in the postseason do
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: you think are related to him being hurt though, or
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: just the step up in class?
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: I mean, what was he hurt in the.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: People are saying it's been for a few weeks now.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: I just figured it was the weather. You know that
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: I was willing to dismiss the lack of productivity because
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: the guy was playing in blizzards for two.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Thirds of where I was at.
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: I mean, there's if you can't put all on him either.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: The offensive line is still a problem. The wide receivers
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: aren't elite at getting separation. But you cannot not come
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: away from watching him in the postseason and say, like
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: he was missing wide open guys. He looked frazzled in
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: the pocket. His lack of pocket presence and awareness was
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: evident from the start. I mean, he did not look
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: comfortable once under pressure since the Chargers game in the
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: first round. So yeah, there's and if you look, there's
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: a clear difference in who the Pats faced during the
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: regular season, the defenses they faced versus the playoffs, and
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: Drake May's production fell off a cliff, and it doesn't.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: You can't blame at all on him. But I also
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: find it amazing that Josh McDaniels has now been on
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: the offensive staff of ten teams that have made a
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: Super Bowl since two thousand and they've scored a total
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: of three points in the first quarter. Three points in
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: ten Super Bowls.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: That's a great scott like that.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: It's embarrassing. They came up with nothing. You have two
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: weeks to prepare. There was nothing creative. There was You
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: didn't try to, you know, get your wide receivers involved
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: in the run game, try a trick play here or there,
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: come up with something different schematically and said just drop
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: Dre Drake may back against this defense and hope and
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: pray that that what did they They didn't come up
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: with anything creative over the tw weeks and that's but
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: it's pretty crazy. Twenty years, ten super Bowls, twenty five years,
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: ten Superls, three first quarter points.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: It's unfortunate that we don't have a game next week
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: because the Patriots would be a great bet. After getting
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: blown out. This would be a pretty un brand for
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: the podcast to go back into the Patriots. Well next year, though,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: you know, you've got that trend that you can follow
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: teams coming off of a Super Bowl loss that really
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: struggle and Kansas City was the latest example of that
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: this year. The Patriots early on next year could be
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: a really strong fade candidate. So keep that in your
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: back pocket.
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: For next year. Everything went. Look, it's not a given
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: that you're going to get back to the super Bowl.
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: Like if I think about all the quarterbacks that really
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: good quarterbacks that have only made one Super Bowl, some
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: have never made any super Bowls. In order to get
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: to a super Bowl unless you're like the elite of
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: the elite, and a lot of times to get to
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: a super Bowl, you need a number of things to
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: break your way, which they did for the most part
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: with the Patriots. It was injuries, the sket they were
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: healthy for most of the year, They had a last
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: place schedule that ended up being the easiest of any
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: team this century. And then in the playoffs they get,
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: you know, a backup quarterback in the ANFC Championship game.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: You have all of the elite quarterbacks in the AFC
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: were taken out or didn't make the playoffs. This was
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: every single thing broke the Patriots away. This year for
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: them to get to the super Bowl next year, Guess what,
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: you got a first place schedule. You now have a
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: target on your back. You're probably not gonna have as
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: good of injury luck, and I doubt that they get
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: back there next year. So this was the year and
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: they got to the super Bowl, but they took credits
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: them for taking advantage of the schedule. But you're not
• 14:21
  Speaker 4: gonna get Jarrett Stidham in the AFC Championship Game ever again.
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: And now you have a first place schedule and things
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: are going to get much more difficult for the Patriots
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: next year.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Usually after a team wins the Super Bowl, we just
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: automatically install them as the favorites and somewhat overwhelmingly. And
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: it doesn't feel like that is going to be the
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: case this year. I do believe they are tied with
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: the Rams. Yeah, they're both at plus nine p fifty
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: to win the Super Bowl next year are the Seattle Seahawks.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: But typically when you see this team that's they go
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: through this run in the playoffs and they hoist the Lombardi,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: there's that conversation the next of man, like, who's gonna
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: beat this team next year? Is there a dynasty forming
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: and all of that, and it doesn't feel like this
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: is that year. Definitely for the Patriots as being on
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: the losing side, but for Seattle as well.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: Kendra, I was gonna say, I hate to continue to
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: be a Pats troll, but the second the total comes
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: out for next year, I might be on the under
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: Like I, you can't tell me that there's not going
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: to be some sort of one weird regression. There's no
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: way they're gonna spend money. I just I don't see
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: them going out and actually doing the right thing by
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: getting a new left tackle and moving Will Campbell to guard, like,
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: I just don't see them doing the right things to
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: get better, and their schedule is about to get a
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: lot more difficult.
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: Probably I would think it's do you know I blame
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: for the I mean that Super Bowl was horrendous, by
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: the way, one of the worst goals I've ever watched.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: It was terrible. I turned it off with two minutes
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: to go. I don't think I've ever turned to Super
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: Bowl up if not.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: Nothing happened for the first like the if what was
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: the most memorable play of the first half.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: I have to say it got to a point where
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: we were all sitting in Hooters, which was they sold out,
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: packed out Hooters, by the way, and it was so
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: silent that we could hear them doing dishes in the back.
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: That's amazing. What was the first Oh, I also had
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: zero zero first quarter tie, which was amazing. I ended
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: at three nothing h even the Patriots had they kicked
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: the touch back to start the game, Like, you couldn't
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: you let them start the thirty five? So but what
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: was the most memorable play of the first half?
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: That punt that the Seahawks punter had that it was
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: an absolute bomb. Yeah.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: I agree with our producer David Payne and our private
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: puts national anthem to flyover epic ten out of ten. Yeah.
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: But do you know I blamed all this. I mean
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: partly it's John Harball for not for kneeling down. Uh
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: he could have if he just ran a play and
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: then kick the field goal, the Ravens could have been here.
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: But I blame the Bills. It's always the Bill's fault.
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: The Bills number one, if they just they get that
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: dumb fourth down stop when Trevor Lawrence's shin hits and
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: then they have to beat the Jags, which is fine.
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: I mean I think the Jags. If the Jags won
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: that game, I think the Jags were gonna go to.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: The You know who didn't look this shitty against the
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: Seattle Seahawks this season, the Jacksonville Jaguars bit they were
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: really good against.
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: I think the Jags were gonna go to the super
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: Bowl and they would have given us their offense would
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: have at least looked confident, and Liam Cohen would have
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: had an actual game plan. Yeah, that was whatever Bills.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: The Bills would have put up put up a fight
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: against Seattle. So the Bills whatever, they beat Jacksonville. We
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: all hated that was the matchup that we put the
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Bills in.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: Jags, And what's the point of them winning their division
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: if they're gonna pull the Bills Like that's such bull crap.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: We seriously need to get to a point where it's
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: like a school yard pick them.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: You get the best in the conference, you pick who
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: you want to play first, and then the second place
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: gets a pick.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: That's the only way that this is going to solve.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: And this bullshit's gonna end.
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: But let's yes, the Jags got screwed, so but the
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: Bills win. Okay, that's fine. So then they go to
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: Denver and not only did they lose, they took the
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: Broncos right to the brink. So Bonnicks gets hurt and
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: is out for the year. So then Jared Stidham has
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: to start in the AFC Championship game, and that's how
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: we get the Patriots in the Super Bowl. So in
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: the end, it's always the Bill's fault.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Yes, And to your point about the first half, let
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: me just run through the play by play here. Field
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: goal for Seattle, punt, punt, punt, punt, punt, field goal, punt, punt, punt,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: field goal, end of half. That was the first half
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: of the Super Bowl.
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: Amazing.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: That is what we witnessed last night.
• 18:55
  Speaker 4: And had a long halftime. So and then the third
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: it felt so long. Yeah, in the third quarter, the
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: lead up to the Super Bowl two is so long,
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: Like the afternoon, the three thirty, the six thirty is
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: it feels like it's like ten hours, so you're waiting
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: for the game and then nothing pretty much happened until
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: like eight thirty at night. So it was that that'll
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: go down as one of the worst Super Bowls I
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: can ever remember. Not then, and then I also lost
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: every single bet that I made, So a little, nice
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: little cherry on top.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a great, great way to end the season.
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: In the fourth quarters, like all my bets were looking
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: okay in the most boring game ever. So I was like, well,
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: at least some of my bets look good and then
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: of course everything blows up in the fourth quarter. So
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: I will I will not look back fondly on the
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: Super Bowl or my betting performance.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: I will never rewatch this one. I can guarantee that.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: One other note, I know that he wasn't ever gonna
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: win MVP in this game because he didn't need to
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: be elite last night. And that is the quarterback of
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks, Sam Darnold, who go was completely overlooked in
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: our entire dialogue here.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: He wanted to throw a pick.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: So oh, he was definitely trying. He wanted to get
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: involved in that pick parlay that we had. But if
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: you look at the waves of impact that that Darnald
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: acquisition created, it's pretty outstanding. So the Seahawks won a
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl. That's first and foremost. The Vikings fired their
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: general manager. The Raiders wound up with the Gino Smith.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: They were so bad with him they get the number
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: one overall pick, which is going to be Fernando Mendoza,
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: and then the Seahawks offensive coordinator becomes their new head coach.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: And he admitted that in the postgame interview the catalyst
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: to all of this was Seattle choosing Darnald over Gino
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: is what set all of this into motion. It's just
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: amazing when you watch the ripple effect of Sam Darnold
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: winding up with the Seattle Seahawks.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: I put this in our notes, but him being the
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: first of his draft class quarterback wise to win a
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: Super Bowl between him Lamar, Josh Allen, and Josh Rosen, hilarious.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Hilarious.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: By the way, I did see a really good meme
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: that someone sent in our group chat, and it was
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: like Sam Donald and this woman in the corner and
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: then like a person sitting in the back in a
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: coup chair with a Jets hat on, and the girl
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: is like, is this okay?
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: It's just the Jets in the back in the chair.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: I thought that that was so good.
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: You mentioned Donald, and I mean, yeah, it's an important No,
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: I mean, who wasn't great in this?
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: No, he was not great.
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: He was actually pretty bad. I thought I mean, what
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: have you finished nineteen to thirty eight or two hundred yards?
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: I think the biggest storyline of the entire season and
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: of the Super Bowl. It was the microcosm of this season.
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: Was you mentioned the decision to move on from Gino
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: and bringing Donald, which was important, but the decision to
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: move on from Pete Carroll and to go to Mike McDonald. Right,
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: this is a guy that won a Super Bowl, that
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: was beloved in Seattle to make that sit that aggressive
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: decision to move on to new coach, and I think
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: that was the key storyline of the season. We've talked
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: about this ad nausea, right, Ben Johnson, his impact not
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: only to Chicago, but his loss and that impact to
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: Detroit and what happen with them. Liam Cohen not only
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: his impact on Jacksonville but how much Tampa missed him.
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: And you can go on and on about these coaches
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: and the coaching changes, and then the most impactful of
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: all was McDonald going to Seattle and the defense that
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: he was able to craft and lead this team to
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: a Super Bowl. And it just shows the impact of coordinators,
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: coaches and change can have on an organization in just
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: one season. In the NFL, and then you look, I
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: think that's again going to be a huge storyline going
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: into next year. I didn't even mentioned. I mean, you
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: could talk about the Eagles right there, the offensive coordinator
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: mets that they had all year and how that ended
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: up costing them. But you go into next year with
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: ten new head coaches, right you have Lafleur at Arizona,
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: Stefanski in Atlanta, Mint and Baltimore, Brady and Buffalo, Monkin
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: and Cleveland, Kubiak in Vegas, Hafley and Miami, Harball in
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: New York, McCarthy and Pittsburgh, Sala and Tennessee, and then
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: you go on to all the coordinator changes. One of
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: our jobs is going to be and I think this
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: is going to be key to wind total betting futures
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: is determining which one of those hires or handful of
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: hires it's going to have the most positive and also
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: the least positive or the most negative impact to that team.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: And it's like the Lions effect from last year.
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and we saw both of their coordinators leave and
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: they missed the postseason. You know, like that was the
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: number one thing that I thought about when their win
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: total came out.
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, like Mike McDaniel going to the Chargers as a
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: new offensive coordinator with their you know now healthy offensive line.
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: How much impact does that have? There's so many storylines
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: and you can tell that NFL teams I think are
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: now being more aggressive when it comes to coaching changes
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: and moving on from guys and understanding the impact that
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: coordinator moves, head coaching changes can have. And that was
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: extremely evident this season and ended up ending with a
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: ended up leading to a super Bowl in Seattle because
• 24:34
  Speaker 4: of McDonald.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: I think you may have just identified our first episode
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: theme in the off season is trying to track down
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: what those coaching moves are. You detailed a lot of them,
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: but figuring out how to value that going into next
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: season is going to be extremely valuable. We'll keep the
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: conversation rolling, but first a word from our very own
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: Kendri Middleton.

• 25:24
  Speaker 1: All right, Kendra post super Bowl, load it up on
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: wings and Mazzarella sticks and Triump didn't even know Hooters
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: had that.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: They're so good?
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: What's on your mind?
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: What sell could you have been?
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: All one Monaco not being the entrance song. He went
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: with the song everybody thought he would open with, which
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: is so boring.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: I was like disappointed in that.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: I thought that the set for the halftime show was
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: very catered to the TV audience, which makes sense, like
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: that's where as people are going to be watching. I
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: expected more of the like Shakira style stage, but I
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: liked that it was interactive, which led me to I
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: know that you guys have been chronically online like myself,
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: and we all saw that the bushes that were around
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: the set were actually people dressed as bushes. Could you
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: imagine being on a gummy dressed like a bush going
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: to do the Super Bowl halftime show?
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: Because that is my personal dream.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: It gives like the Stanford you guys know the Stanford mascot,
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: how it's like a tree and it's a different person
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: from their band every week that has to go dress
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: up as the tree and like dance around at their stuff.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: This is my dream, dreams to be a tree, To
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: be a tree at the super Bowl halftime show off
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: a gummy.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: Yes, I think she specifically said loaded on THHC while
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: also dressed as a tree is the specific time.
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: Sometimes when I'm high in public, I get anxious.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: But if I'm hiding in that and I get to
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: just stand there and vibe and listen to Bad Bunny
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: and like not have actual, real human thoughts, that is
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: so ideal.
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: I stopping you from doing that in your own house.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: That's true, you could do that on the podcast We
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: won't judge you.
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: I do think that we should do a four twenty
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: episode the Stressed is Trees.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: I did. I did very minimal Bad Bunny research, And
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: by research, I mean just listening to a few of
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: his songs that were popular and either I didn't listen
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: to them enough to recognize them, or he didn't play
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: them last night.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: So he played is it anything, only.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: Part of it. Stucky that Mia song. I was vibing
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: to that on Saturday and then he didn't even sing
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: it right or did I miss it?
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: I don't what.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to sing it here me me that one.
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know that's a song with Cardi B. I
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: like it.
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: Oh, So, speaking of Cardi B, there's what what Evan?
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: Can you clarify? So there's a huge controversy on the
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: prediction markets with stage or not.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I.
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Mean definitely on stage.
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: What's all I gotta say is I got paid out.
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: I took no and there's more money in my account.
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: But it wasn't, So I think they're saying technically she wasn't.
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: I really don't want to look into it more because
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: I feel like they're going to catch me and they're
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: going to take my money away from me. So I
• 28:28
  Speaker 5: just want to leave it alone and move on to
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: college basketball.
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: Was she not on stage?
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: Was just I guess they're trying to say she like
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: wasn't a performer, or but I thought the bet was.
• 28:40
  Speaker 5: I think that like I had the Gaga bet that
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: lost because she obviously was a performer, but Cardi b
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: I'm guessing that they said that she wasn't. And there
• 28:50
  Speaker 5: was a lot of people on a lot of different
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: shows who had action on that bet because they're like,
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: why would you be on stage? She's there with Stefan Diggs,
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: blah blah blah blah blah.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: But was is that the specific wording of the bet?
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Was it perform or appear on stage?
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: We read yeah, she did not perform, and I think
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: that was the difference, but a.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: Lot of.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: Was that it was it had to be a performance. Also,
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: I added into our notes that allegedly Cardi and Stefan
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: Diggs broke up last night.
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: I did do the research. They both.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: Unfollowed each other on Instagram, and.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: Apparently he brought another.
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: Girl back to his room last night after they all
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: went out and she found out and freaked out, allegedly.
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: Which returning in the TMZ here, I will say, I
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: don't how much how liquid were those on stage bets
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: on the prediction market? Seven? Yeah?
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: Very I mean there's so much volume. There was a
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: a lot of money. To me like, oh yeah, of course.
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: I mean, listen, you know you used to be able
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: to bet these things, you know, back in the day
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: before legalized down but you could I mean, what would
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: you could get like a fifty dollars bat down right
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: like correct? Which no, they're not, you're not. You don't
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: have to worry about insider trading like there's but as
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: these markets get more looking, I mean, how many people
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: are involved in the actual production that are you know,
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: workers at the stadium that know all these things.
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: So Gago was Goago was definitely inside information because she
• 30:36
  Speaker 5: was at like minus five hundred, minus six hundred, which
• 30:38
  Speaker 5: made little sense, and she obviously a lot of people
• 30:42
  Speaker 5: obviously knew about that. But I believe me, like most
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: of that is definitely a little insidery, which you could understand.
• 30:53
  Speaker 5: But this one just had a lot of controversy, which
• 30:56
  Speaker 5: is obviously making the market more public, if that makes sense.
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: If I may, Evan, what motivated you to bet on
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: this in the first place?
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: Sitting there talking with my wife and a few other people,
• 31:07
  Speaker 5: and I was bored and I wanted to kind of
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: diversify my portfolio. And during the Super Bowl and that
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: was honestly the funny thing is on our stream for
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: our playbook live show in the morning, I told everyone
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: I had the no Gaga bet which lost, but failed
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: to tell people that I had that CARDI b bet,
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: which now I guess won, and I've you know, I'm
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: taking that money and running.
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: This is shady.
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: I think I learned that I'm not going to bet
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: heavy on the super Bowl, Thanksgiving or Christmas next year.
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: I'm going to keep it the same as I always do.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: I can't go hand for these anymore.
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: I hate I hate the super Bowl. I hate this
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: when as far any game during the whole year, the
• 31:50
  Speaker 4: super Bowl is one of my least favorite games, which
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: is crazy to say, but there's two weeks leading up
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: to one game you're so sick of talking about, like
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: I'm talking to as a as someone who does content,
• 32:01
  Speaker 4: you're so sick of talking about it, right, and then
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: you have like the lead up to the game, and
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: then there's the long halftime and it's just it's exhausting.
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: I'd like, I look, I'm more excited about a random,
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: you know, Tuesday night mac football game than the super Bowl.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: So yeah, we just treated it so differently. I had
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: twelve bets on this game. No what I'm saying, well,
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: I would never have twelve. Yeah, it could be the
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: biggest Game of the week in Week six. I would
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: never put twelve bets.
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: On again out in the super Bowl. I mean, you had,
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: that's part of it. That's part of the fun. I mean,
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: that's that's one of the that's part of the fun.
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: Like you, it's hard to find you're not gonna have
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: like a huge edge on the side or total I
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: don't think in the super Bowl at the end of
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: the year. So uh yeah, I always did gen out
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: and make a bunch of bets. That's part of the
• 32:52
  Speaker 4: fun of it, like sweating the props. But obviously I
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: got everyone wrong, so maybe I shouldn't do that.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I like going out a winner. Did not happen here.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: All right, guys, let's plant our flag presented by DraftKings.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: The crown is yours.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: M flag in a shut up, I'm trying to plant
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: my flag here.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: Okay, you're really planning your flag in that thing. Obviously,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: if we have no game next week, sadly to plant
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: our flag on. But let's plant our flag for twenty
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: twenty six or for the champion of that we'll be
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: in twenty twenty seven, whichever direction you guys want to
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: go on this. If you want to go Super Bowls.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: To quick tidbit on that Seattle, as I mentioned earlier,
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: tied with the Rams at plus nine point fifty to
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: win the Bowl, followed by the Bills at eleven to one.
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: The Eagles, Ravens and the Patriots are next at thirteen
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: to one. Kendro, what are you looking at for twenty
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: twenty six?
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: I didn't take this as a plant your flag for
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: a Super Bowl situation. I took it as like a
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: plant your flag on a team that you think is
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: going to be a lot better next year. And it
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: might be a little dead to say now, but I've
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: been saying it for quite some time, so I'm going
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: to continue to lap on this. I think the New
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: York Giants are going to be sick. That defensive line
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: is baller. People like to make jokes that Jackson Dart
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: and Camp Scatabow are going to have the most electric
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: five year career ever. I totally agree. The coaching's going
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: to help. Their draft positioning is going to help. I
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: think that the New York Giants are going to be
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: so good next year.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: They clearly got a huge coaching upgrade. That's going to
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: be one of the teams that we give a huge
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: tick up to because of who they added. You mentioned
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: the draft implications. They pick fifth in what.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: Should be telling me a quarterback though exactly.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: And it's a loaded class outside of the quarterback position,
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: so that should help them as far as some of
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: the skill positions go, or if they want to add
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: another piece to a defense, that should be a lot better.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: I like that. Look that will be definitely be a team.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: Where did they end up finishing. I guess they finished
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: in the last place in their division, So they're also
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: going to be fortunate enough to get that easy schedule.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: So we saw how beneficial that can be. I like that,
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: look stucky. What about you? Where will you plant your flag?
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: Whether it's for the season, a team that you like,
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: or the Super Bowl.
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: I have no idea. I haven't even started to think
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: about or look it. Next year. I will plant my
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: flag on Kansas beating Arizona tonight, handing them their first
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: loss in Lawrence. That's my that's my plant to flag
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: for today.
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Market what's the what's the line on that game?
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: I think plat Kansas plus two at home and Daron
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: Peterson as long as he plays, I don't know. Sometimes
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: they he doesn't play in the second half of games.
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: I think his his people call down and say, don't play.
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: But he played like the entire game against Utah on Saturday.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: So but if he plays the whole game, Kansas beats
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: Arizona tonight, that's my plan flag.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: I kind of like that idea of just planting a
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: flag on something entirely different. I do have the heat
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: minus seven tonight, So if you want to go at
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: the NBA route, I'm gonna go with the Falcons. I
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: already place the bet on it seventy five to one.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: Now here's the thing.
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: Literally, just stay on our quarterback like I.
• 36:03
  Speaker 3: Love you, but this is you are literally being like
• 36:07
  Speaker 3: you know what, tread on me, daddy and handing the
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: sports book your wallet.
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: I mean still, I still think position to NFC South. Yes,
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: James Pierce did get arrested. It doesn't look good for
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: him and his future. Ten and a half sacks last year. Uh,
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: their quarterback situation is in flux. But uh there what
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: we go back to the coaching upgrade. I think they
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: get a massive coaching upgrade with Stefanski, and I love
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: the talent on that team and I hate that division.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: So this is just about carrying a seventy five to
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: one ticket into the playoffs. That's the that's the flag
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: plant right there, stuck. He looks like he wants to
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: vomit on his sweater right now.
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: I mean, at least I don't go division. No one
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: will let you down more than the Atlanta Falcons.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: That's what I said when you put it in and
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: we talked about it. The first one, I was like,
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: why not just the division? And even that is dumb
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: ast shit.
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: Where the bron I think the Broncos are like eighteen
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: to one. That might not be a bad idea for Jans.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Might fuck around and win that division next year.
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: Uh, tough division because everyone is just like the same,
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: everyone's like you same.
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: The most money I made with on that division were
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: just like.
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: Middle class, like just buying for a promotion.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: Another one that I think is interesting, So I mentioned
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: the Broncos. What about the Chiefs at fifteen to one?
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: That you are never going to get the Kansas City
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: Chiefs any cheaper than that.
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: So that's they're like, even though they have a better
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: draft position this year, they still are just too old
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: and need to retool.
• 37:41
  Speaker 2: Like, I don't think it's going to be this year.
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: I think if they're going to be a good team
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: again and make like a decent run, it's going to
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: be next year. I get that the schedule they're gonna
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: pull is probably going to be favorable this year, especially
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: at those odds, but they just need to change too
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: many old people over they are.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: I think they're going to get really aggressive in the
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: off season and they're gonna end up catch and some
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: hype when they do that, we're going.
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: To making a Falcon's super Bowl quick slip in the
• 38:07
  Speaker 4: YouTube description because no one would ever click that. So
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: I kind of agree that's fair.
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: You know what, maybe they're getting longer odds now.
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: That I was crazy for the Panthers though, So you
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: know what, more power to your sister.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: Who do you think is if you had to for
• 38:26
  Speaker 4: your you get a free million dollars risk free if
• 38:32
  Speaker 4: you name both super Bowl participants next year and you
• 38:37
  Speaker 4: got to choose right now, nothing else obs Atlanta.
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: And.
• 38:46
  Speaker 4: So you're going to Atlanta, Chiefs, you go with?
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: We did. I didn't know. I didn't know we were
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: getting I'm trying to make a million, I'm not trying.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: I didn't know we were getting a million dollars for
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: free here.
• 38:56
  Speaker 4: Change if you if you get right, who would you
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: go with?
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna say the Ravens.
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: And trying to get on my good side?
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: Was I on your bad side? No, I'm gonna say
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: the Ravens and forty nine ers.
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: Hmm, I'm gonna say the I want to say the Jags,
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: but I'm gonna say Jags.
• 39:29
  Speaker 3: Twitter's already going crazy with the logo of next year
• 39:31
  Speaker 3: being handsaid Jags Cowboys, so that's what has.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: Been running all over Jags Twitter this morning.
• 39:38
  Speaker 4: This is tough because what's I don't I don't know
• 39:40
  Speaker 4: what's gonna happen with the Rams. I want to say
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: the Rams, but.
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: They are the They have the shortest odds along with Seattle,
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: so if you're just playing the odds game, the Rams
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: would be the right choice.
• 39:52
  Speaker 3: I also wanted to say the Rams, but I feel
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: like Stafford, this was his last year.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: Of like being old and good. Next year he might
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: just be like old and mid.
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm gonna answer the question. I'm curious to
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: see where Stucky goes to. I just want to get
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: this thought bubble popped here. I think Washington is going
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: to be sneaky next year. They were so over hyped
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: going into this season. Jaydon Daniels is still a really
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: good quarterback. I think that that could be a team
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: that's that returns to being on the rise. The Chargers are.
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: Interesting because of this move dummy, who's a dummy, dan Quinn.
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: Their defense is so old and slow. They need to
• 40:31
  Speaker 4: they need to do a lot on the defensive side
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: of the ball. I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go Chargers Rams.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: In l A and the Super Bowls and so.
• 40:49
  Speaker 4: That's that's that's what I'm going with.
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: All thirty seven of their fans would show.
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: And I'm going I'm going Jags Rams.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: Oh that was a quick switch up. Okay, you're going
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: Jags Rams.
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: Can picking each other's teams, Yes, this is so cute, guys.
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna pick the Dolphins.
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: Sorry, I would judge you if you did the Super Bowl.
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: I'll go with the Chiefs. They're gonna be doubted all year.
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: This is when you want to buy with my three
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: million dollars and not the I'll take Seattle to get
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: back there as hard as bucket Chief Seahawks for me.
