Terminello's Take Featuring Thanksgiving Day Football Memories Mixed With Giants and Jets Implosion Reaction 11-26-24 · OneLegUpAlex Sports

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: And here's your host, Alex Garret. Well, it's been a
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: little while, but Terminello's take is back, and uh, I'm
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: going to refer to the link I'm gonna post my
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: description below about the Gettleman era has finally crashed and burned. Now,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: I'm not saying Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley were bad
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: picks necessarily. I just think Gettleman didn't do anything to
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: help around him and really saddle the Giants with this
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: mess that ends in not only Daniel Jones being released low,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: but then Zaikuon Barkley two days later making history as
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: an Eagle. I mean, the Gettleman era mess may be
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: finally over, But what's your take on all this? What
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: a tail of two cities.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: Here, Alex, thank you for having me as always, I mean,
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: let's look at it in two stages. Barkley obviously has
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: been in a amazing pickup for a contending Super Bowl team,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: the Philadelphia Eagles. You gotta remember last year the Eagles
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: started ten and one and they did collapse after that,
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: and that that was a mystery. Why they? Why they?
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Why they collapsed? Now they've won seven in a row.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: Barkley's playing behind probably the best or second best offensive
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: line in the league. Detroit's also up there. Baltimore has
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: a strong offensive line. But uh, and he's rejuvenated. I mean,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: he's not getting hit at the line of scrimmage. You
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: look at the seventy two and seventy yard runs, the
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: two touchdown runs in the second half that he had
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: the other night, Alex he wasn't touched at all by
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: the Rams defense. So he's he's a great pickup for
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: a contending team. If he was on the Giants, I
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: don't know if it made a difference. You want to
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: talk about Gettleman, Getleman. I have never drafted them number two.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying that that Barkley wasn't worthy to be
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: drafted number two, but the Giants didn't need him. If
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: the Giants were a contending team and I gotten the
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: number two pick through a trade and they were a contender,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: that's different. You never drafted you never drafted running back
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: that high. And remember that that that did bite the
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Giants in the butt. And you know, he's a great player,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: and now he's in a great situation. As far as
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Daniel Jones goes, we said it, he's a talented guy.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: I don't think he was a number six overall pick
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: in the draft. I don't think he deserved to be,
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: but you know, he he has talent. Now can he
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: go somewhere? And I assume as we film, as we
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: record this on Tuesday at about two fifteen, I'm sure
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: he'll be picked up today or tomorrow. I'm sure he's
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: looking who who was interested in him. But it's time
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: to move on with Daniel Jones. I don't believe that
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: whoever he signs with this year will be his destination
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: long term. I'm sure it will be, you know, just
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: as a rental and then we'll see where he goes.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: And as we said, there's not a lot of good
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: quarterbacks in this league. It's going to be very hard
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: for the Giants to find their next quarterback unless they
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: look into one in the draft. And apparently this is
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: not a draft of outstanding quarterbacks. But the Giants going
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: to be picking in the top five in all likelihood,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: and as long as they play Tommy DeVito, they're not
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: going to win many games. And there is no doubt
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: in my mind that the Tommy DeVito starting assignment came
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: directly from John Marratt. Nobody's gonna convince me differently. Brian
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Dabele and Joe Shane know that Tommy Devido doesn't give
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: the best chance to win. I'm not saying that that
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: Drew Locke is the best backup quarterback of all time,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: but he's been in Tommy Devido and Tommy DeVito did
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: nothing the other day. There was no competitive Well.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: He might be injured too. They're saying he has a
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: forearm situation. But let me ask you this. In my article,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: I also wrote to give this dable dynamic. I think
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: you'd like that alliteration Dabel dynamic, which worked in twenty
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: twenty two. I mean, they got through the postseason but
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: the first time in a while, and got him Coach
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: of the Year. I'll stick with it for another year.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Am I wrong in that assessment?
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: Loop, Well, I think you're not wrong in that assessment.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: You have to you can't keep changing and every coach
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: that John Mayer has selected. Remember everybody thinks that he
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: selected Tom Kauflan, No, his father did. But every coach
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: that he picked, from McAdoo to Joe Judge to Schumer
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: to Shermer, I mean that to stable he picked them
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: all and that's all in it since two thousand, you know,
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, seventeen, and I would say he's probably going
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: to bite the bullet. I assume that they'll both be
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: back Shane and Dable next year, but they're going to
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: be on a sizzling hot seat next year. But again,
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: they got to get a quarterback and Alex. I don't
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: know where they get a quarterback from all these teams
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: that have any quarterbacks next year unless they get lucky
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: in the draft. I mean, I like Shador Sanders, cam
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: Woyd apparently is has an NFL arm, but I don't
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: know where their long range success is going to be. So,
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: you know, so we'll see. The Giants are in a pickle,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: as are you know, as as is the other team
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: across the hallway in Mattlife Stadium. They're both in the pickle,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: different types of pickles, because the Jets have more talent
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: than the Giants, but the NFL is unforgiving.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Let's let's let's zoom out on the NFL right now,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: because I look at Derek Henry who had another I
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: think another touchdowns, so he's been a weekly touchdowns for
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: the Ravens. And then I look at Saquon Barkley. It
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: just shows what a good O line can do when
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: you protect your running back. It gives them that talent back.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: You know. I just feel like they have that bit
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: of a revival. And some say, well he was great
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: in Tennessee when don me my revival, Well he didn't
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: really get a lot of support, like you said in Baltimore.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Right, you're one hundred percent correct. And if you want
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: to go back to Saquon Barkley, the Eagles have a
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: great line and they're left tackle Jordan Malaca and they're
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: right tackle Lane Johnson. Uh, they're one two in in
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Pro Football focuses analytic ratings, and Pro Football Focus is
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: pretty reliable and grading players. So there you go, right there.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: They moved they signed Mackay Beckton, who was in his
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: second and third year was always injured, ate himself off
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: the Jets. They moved him to guard and he's playing
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: on this great line, which makes him look better. Yes,
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: you have to have the line, but also and Chris
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Collinsworth broke this down beautifully the second the second long run,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: the seventy yard run with about two and a half
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: minutes to go, he broke it down saying how everybody
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: thought that Jalen Hurts, he's a running quarterback, was going
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: to run right, and Hurt slipped the ball on the
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: handoff to Barkley, who went untouched seventy yards. So it's
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: a combination of a great line a quarterback that makes
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: the defense really have to think twice on any type
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: of run option, whether it's a run past option or
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: it's just the threat of the quarterback to run. So
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: he's in a perfect situation. Eagles have a great roster,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: and I think they've calmed down all of the uh,
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: the angst that was going on in the City of
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Brotherly Love.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: And we know that definitely. I mean and he called,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: he said the other night, you know, coming in with
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: a fresh start, I wasn't with that other mess of
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: the last couple of years. Like he was really spot
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: on with Scott Van Pelt on the ESPN, And I
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: just thought, this guy is very thankful to be in
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: Philly right now, and I think he's thankful to be
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: out of that mess of the Giants now. The other
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: thing about all of this loop is that I never
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: hated Saquan. You know this, I said, I'm not mad
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: him for leaving. I think he did what he had
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: to do. I'm actually happy he's thriving because we're just
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: seeing what a talent he is. And I'm just sorry
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: he was that Giants mess. I think I can say
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: that even though the Giants had Loop.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: Well you shouldn't. I mean, obviously, I mean, the Giants
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: could have kept him. That's that's that's number one. Uh
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: they did, they did the right I think they did
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: the right thing. The mistake they made is when they
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: decided to give to give Jones all that money. And
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying that money should have gone to Berkley,
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: but you know, they you know they they are in
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: a league where it's hought to find a good quarterback.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: He had a great playoff game against Minnesota and the
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Giants that get that was the forty million dollar game,
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: There's no doubt about it. And now the Giants got
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: to look elsewhere for their you know, for their quarterback,
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: and it's going to be tough to find. But no,
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: I mean that's the way the NFL is in twenty
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: twenty four.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, Well, we have a few minutes here. I gotta
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: ask you this because real quick, I see the Browns
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: are keeping Deshaun Watson. I don't know. I always think
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: the Browns are interesting franchise the way they're going around.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: But they're keeping Stefanski, so he may not be on
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: the hot seat. Any NFL coaches that should be, I'm
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: thinking Everflush should be on the hot seat. I mean,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: what's been going on around the league? Who else would
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: be your hot seat candidates?
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm a little surprised you said that that you
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: you just saw something that Stefanski, who I think is
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: a good coach, is on the hot seat because the
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: Browns are.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: No, he's not on the hot seat.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: Okay's all right, He's not on the hot seat. If
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: it was, I would believe he would be one of
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: my first choices to be a Jets coach. But who
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: else is gonna be in a hot seat? I think
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Todd Bowles is going to be in a hot seat.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: And I think everybody's saying that Bill Belichick is going
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: to go to Jacksonville or we go to Dallas. Tampa
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Bay has a good team, they have good personnel, and
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: if they flame out, either don't make the playoffs and
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: they're only you know, they're only five and six now,
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: or they have a first round playoff disaster. I could
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: see Belichick going to Tampa. I mean that nobody's been
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: talking about that, but I think that's another potential destination.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: He's not coming to the Jets, He's not coming to
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: the Giants. I could see maybe him going to Dallas.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Now, okay, so he goes to If he goes to Tampa,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: let me ask you this, because Baker is a bit
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: of a spitfire. He does his own thing, much like
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: you know. I think that he was the Belichick was
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: dealing with that after the Brady era with Newton and
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: all that. Will Baker learn under Belichick? If that's the case,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, would that be a good marriage there? Or Kyle?
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: I could tell you one thing where Belichick's gonna go.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: He wants to have a good quarterback, and I think
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: that Baker Mayfield is one of the most After you
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: talk about the elite quarterbacks and we don't have to
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: name them, we know who they are. I think Baker
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: Mayfield is at the top of the next level. He
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: could quarterback my team any day. You can, if you
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: have a good roster, you can win a super Bowl
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: with Baker Mayfield. He's tough, he's competitive, he's not afraid. Yeah,
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: I don't think that. I don't think he really He'll learn.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: You learn something from every coach. You learn something every
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: year that you're in the league, no matter what sport
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: you're playing. But I think that that would be a
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: good That would be a good, good quarterback coach matchup.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: I do.
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: I think that would be a good match up.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: All right, we mentioned a little while ago what the
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Jets are dealing with with their interim coach. You know,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: this whole Giants FIO has really gone under the radar.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: What the Jets are going through. They fire Joe Douglas
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: and there's rumors swirling, which I guess Roger's trying to
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: shut down and he won't be back there. I mean,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: the Jets are as much of a mess, but they're
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: not getting the highlights. What do they need to do
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: because the watchful eye is off them for a second,
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: But they are just as much of a mess.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Well, the watch lily is awesome for a second, but
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: they watch the life been on the most for the year.
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: And I'm obviously they're gonna have a new coach, They're
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: gonna have a new general manager, and I assume a
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: new coach, a new general manager is going to want
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: to develop their own quarterback. As Rogers said, I don't
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: know if I'm gonna play next year. I guess he
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: was on McAfee earlier. I didn't see it, but I
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: have to see how healthy I am. I got to
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: see what the new general manager and coaching staff looks like.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: I don't think he'll be back. I mean, he's played hurt,
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: is no doubt about it. And the Jets have to
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: get the Jets have to get a good a good
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: coaching staff. And I really hope the next coach is
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: an offensive coach. I really do. And as much as
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: I would love to see former Jet a great Aaron
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Glenn get the job because he's done a great job
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: with the Detroit defense, I want an offense. I want
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: an offensive coach. It's still an offensive league. It's maybe
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: taking a step back in the last year or as
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: an offensive league, basically because the quarterback play hasn't been
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: as good with the exception of the league quarterbacks in
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: the last couple of years, and the jetsman had the
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: same problem the Giants had. They're gonna have to find
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: a quarterback where they find it. I don't know. Is
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Roger's better than probably some of the options. Probably, but
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: he's gonna be forty one years old with a new regime,
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: so he I mean, I doubt if he's back next year, Alex.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: But the Jets do have a ridge quarterback in Tyrod Taylor.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: He actually was another guy throwing into the bas situation
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: with the Giants. The way they handled that, I thought
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: he could have done so much more with Big Blue
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: last year. But anyway, I'm so glad you mentioned Detroit because, hey,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: another exciting Thanksgiving. I mean, when the Lions are winning,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: Thanksgiving has to be fun in Detroit. I know it's traditional,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: matter what, but this team and Dan Campbell and by
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: the way, another under the radar success. Can we just
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: say that because they're they're in Michigan and they're doing
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: their own thing. Yeah, the highs are on them are
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: a little bit, but they're still under the radar for most.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: If you're not, they're not on.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: The radar anymore. They are for the first time in
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: their history. They go into they go into uh Thanksgiving
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: Day as the Super Bowl favorites and all the betting polos. Now,
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: I don't give a crap about the bet about Vegas
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: about the vet betting polish. But that's just something as
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: a point of reference.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: But the point, But the point is and Fanatics is
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: obviously a sponsor of the one like up sports network here,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: so I'm gonna promote this fanatic said, who is the
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: best UH number in Jersey? You remember the most of Thanksgiving?
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: I got to give it to Barry Sanders because every
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: time I turn on the TV on Thanksgiving, boom. He
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: was making those runs even as a kid. I remember that.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: I'm sure you do too, lou Absolutely.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: And that's that's a very good that's a very good
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: choice that you made.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: And I just think that that energy is there every
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: year now out for the Lions. But what has gone?
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: And you'll find a link to a Barisanders Jersey by
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: the way, which I might make commission on if if
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: you so obliged to buy from my lank. Thanks Luke
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: for let me plug that in there during Terminelo's take.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: But what makes this team stand out? Like? I think
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Goff is an incredible QB. I just think they have
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: it going all together here, don't they Look?
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: They have number one, They have the coach quarterback combination,
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: which you have as we said a couple of minutes ago,
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: you have to have in the NFL. Dan Campbell is
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: a tough guy. He's a tough minded coach. They're a
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: physical team. The players will run through the wall for
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Dan Campbell. You have that's that's number one. That's what
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: that's what you have to do. They have a great
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: offensive line. They suffered some injuries to to of their
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: best defensive players in Aiden Hutchinson and Alex alon as
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: A Loney, but he'll be well. Hutchinson won't be back
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: as a Loney will be back with the broken arm,
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: probably right as the playoffs began, and they'll get a
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: first round by which will which will help their injury situation.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: And GoF who took the Rams to the super Bowl.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: The media kind of poopoot him. The guy's outstanding. The
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: guy can make every throw. He stands in the pocket.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: He has commanded the offense. Alex we might we might
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: in February, we might see that.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: I think they also kind of sunk any kind of
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: playoff hopes for the night. Remember that comeback against San Francisco,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: I mean the Lions come back a couple of weeks
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: ago on Tony Night Football is exemplary of the team
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: they are, Isn't it.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: No doubt about it.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I think you see that. And on the AFC, can
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: I make a bold prediction here? I think it might
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: be Bills and Ravens in the AFC Championship. I'm gonna
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: say that here on November twenty sixth, because they just
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: look better than the Chiefs right now. Maybe you disagree,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: but I think both teams have this kind of edge
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: over Kansas City. And I know the Bills beat them
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: just a couple of weeks ago in the regular season, but.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: No, you're right, they've beat him in the regular season.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: That to me, that doesn't mean that means something. I'm
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: not gonna say it means nothing. But you know, this
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: is how good the Chiefs have become. They're ten and
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: one and we're criticizing them or questioning them because they're
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: ten and one, But they've been in a ton of
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: close games and had to dig deep to pull it out. Well,
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: they dug deep to pull it out. That's an asset.
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: That's what makes them great. I'm not going against the Chiefs.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: There's still to me, there's still number one on the
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: board until somebody knocks them out. I'm not going against
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: the multiple time Super Bowl champion. You know I'm not.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: Well, I will give Mahomes this. He still makes that
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: side I throw sidearm throw when he needs to. It's
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: just I've never seen a QB work that sidearm so
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: perfectly in the right time. It's just incredible. The way
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: he's slots it in there every every week. It's just
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: it's something to gush over. I know Chris Collinsworth does
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: a lot, but I will too because I love that
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: side arm throw. It's just something I've never seen before
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: from a quarterback.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Well, the guy can do anything on a football field.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, we've seen as well as anybody we've we've
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: ever seen. They don't have great offensive talent throughout this year,
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: but they don't lose and that that's the bottom line.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: They're ten in one uh and uh, you know we'll see.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's is it gonna be hard to win
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: three super Bowls in a row, No doubt, It's gonna
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: be really hard. And if it's not them, I don't
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: think it's gonna be the Ravens. I could be wrong.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Let's see how the rest of the season plays out.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: Let's see where the Ravens are seated, and then we'll
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: we'll uh take another look at it. But I could tell you,
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: I could tell you one thing. Lamar Jackson has developed.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: Gets even though he's been a two time MVP already,
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: he gets better and better. He has improved his throwing
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: motion and has become such a more accurate passer. And
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: you know, anytime it's third and short, whether on any
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: part of field and you got to get those couple
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: of yards or especially in a red zone, he's a
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's a weapon at that is scary. So
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: we'll see, it's gonna be a very interesting postseason.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: It will be loose. By the way, it is Thanksgiving
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: and we can go into hockey next time because maybe
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: the Rangers will bounce back. But it is Thanksgiving week.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: First of all, what does that mean to you? What
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: do you think before? And secondly, give me in the
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: next few minutes here your favorite Thanksgiving football memory.
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: Oh wow, Well, first of all, it's great that you know.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Thanksgiving holiday is great and we should all be grateful
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: that we had we live in the United States of America.
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: As we see what goes on around the world, the
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: United States America still is is the place to live.
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: And I think that's going to even get better in
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: the next in the next decade at least, I hope so.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: And I mean, as far as great games I could remember,
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: I could remember a Dallas a Dallas Washington game and
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: Clint Longley, he came off the bench to rally Dallas
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: to a win. It was Clint Longley's fifteen minutes of fame.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: That was again prompt my God. Probably about twenty five
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: thirty years ago. There was another game when the then
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: Saint Louis Cardinals actually played on on a Thanksgiving Day
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: and Bob Breesee threw six touchdown passes. Of course, the
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: leon Let game when he touched the football instead of
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: just letting it roll, where the Dolphins fell on the
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: football and won the game, that's memorable. Then there's the
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: memorable college game back in thanks Giving Day nineteen seventy one,
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: and the two great great football teams playing each other.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: Both were in the Big Eight, which is now the
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: Big Twelve. Neither team is in that conference anymore. It
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: was Nebraska and Oklahoma and Nebraska with the great Johnny
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Rodgers and the whole slew of great players on each
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: team on Oklahoma and Nebraska. Nebraska beat Oklahoma thirty five
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: to thirty one. That's probably that's the best college game
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: I saw on Thanksgiving Day. Then there's a day after Thanksgiving,
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: on Thanksgiving Friday, the famous flutey to Gerrod fell and
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: touchdown on the last play of the game down the
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Orange Bowl to beat Miami and clinch what little doubt
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: there was that Doug Flutie was going to win the
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: Heisman Trophy that year for Boston College. So those are
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: a few that I remember off the top of my head.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: And who knows what Thursday's gonna bring.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Well, those are great memories for me. I remember watching
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: football on no matter where it was, whether it was
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: out in the Hamptons of my grandma other and her
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: friends and my family, or in my own home and Queen's.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's a tradition you gather on
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: the TV, not only for family, but for football. I mean,
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: it's just it's part of the day. And we got
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: to get into the college football playoffs scene next week
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: when it's the final week of the year. Uh, we
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: got to get into this next week because Notre Dame
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: might be hosting a home game let's talk about that
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: next week, shall we.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: I look forward to it, and I think Notre Dame
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: is going into the playoffs in good shape. I like
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: their team. I'm not gonna say they're gonna win the
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: national championship, but I think I think they have a
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: real chance.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: But I'm gonna I'm gonna say thank you to you
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: because you said that Navy and Army were un defeated
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: going into there. That game against the Irish, the Irish
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: knocked off both undefeated seasons, and that's gotta be history too. Well.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Again, obviously, Army and Navy both are at disadvantage whist
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: they don't have an IL players and they don't have
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: transfer forward to players, but it's uh, what do I mean?
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: And Navy have done the share of been outstanding, So
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: we'll talk. We'll talk about that, looking forward to that
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: next week, Alex, as always, and you and your family
• 24:06
