  Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio.

  Speaker 1: Mikey A, it is rare here where we start the
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: show with breaking news. You have some breaking news though
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: from Adam Schefter.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: What are you hearing here? What are you reading?
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 0:30
  Speaker 4: Coming in about 15, 20 minutes ago, breaking further testing
• 0:33
  Speaker 4: today revealed giants quarterback Jackson darts knee injury is worse
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: than initially thought. And the team and dart are now
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: facing the possibility of season ending knee surgery. According to
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: ESPN of all the quarterback injuries suffered in week two
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: darts is turning out to be easily the most significant.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: That should read that the Giants fans are now and
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: the Giants organization is now staring at Jameis Winston as
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: their starting quarterback for the remainder of the season for
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: the rest of the year. That is terrible news because
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: they got off to a good start. Jackson Dart was
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: being it looked like through week one that he was
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: running in a way that was more responsible. He wasn't running.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: He was just playing quarterback. And the idea that people
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: tell him, hey, stop running.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: Don't do this. Don't do that.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: Injuries can happen on any play in the NFL, and
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: unfortunately it happened to the Giants' young quarterback, and that
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: stinks for the New York Giants and their fan base.
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: I hate this part about football because when you're watching
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: that game on Monday Night Football, The injury looked bad
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: at the time, and when he's limping off the field,
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: you're like, oh no, you're just thinking the worst, and
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: you're hearing the reports coming out saying maybe two to
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: four weeks, the trainer lip read four to six weeks,
• 1:47
  Speaker 5: and nothing really matched up with the eye test to
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: what you thought you saw on the football field.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Yes, but John Harbaugh's face, like he was out there,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: he looked very, very concerned.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: It looked like.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: If you were just looking at John Harbaugh's face, you
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: were looking at a man who thought his quarterback was
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: out for the season, no?
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and now you could do the thing saying, like,
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: where do the Giants turn from here? Is it Jameis Winston?
• 2:11
  Speaker 5: Do you get New England on the phone and try
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: to make a call for Tommy DeVito? I kind of
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: like that option. I kind of like Tommy DeVito.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: Do you really?
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I'm concerned for Cam Scadaboo because Jackson Dart is his
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: best friend.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: I mean, they're inseparable. I don't know if Cam Scadaboo is.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Going to be able to handle the news. But I
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: have a good candidate for the Giants quarterback. How about
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: you reunite John Harbaugh with Joe Flacco?
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: How about that? Huh?
• 2:38
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: So I'm at the point where.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: You don't like it.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: Any option you give me maybe outside of tommy devito
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: tommy devito was the only one that kind of sparked
• 2:49
  Speaker 5: a little light bulb above my head right when i
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: mentioned that possible uh reconnection of him going back to
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: jersey if you're a giants fan today you could spin
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: this however you want with whatever option you want your
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: season's over essentially your season is over with this jackson
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: dart injury.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Um is the season over do you guys not trust
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: jamis winston is that the problem it's.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: Not that I don't trust Jameis Winston. It's just, we
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: all know what Jameis Winston is going to be. He's
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: a rollercoaster. He's going to be, he's going to make
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: some throw and it's not even game to game. It
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: is literally play to play, throw to throw. Jameis Winston
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: will make throws every, in any given day that make
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: you go, that's why he was the first overall pick
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: way back when that's what they saw in him in
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: Florida state.
• 3:33
  Speaker 6: And then the very next play, two plays later, 10
• 3:36
  Speaker 6: plays later, he's.
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: Going to make such a boneheaded throw where you go,
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: why would you even attempt to make that throw?
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: Right?
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Probably not good enough.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: If he's starting the remainder of the game for the
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: giants this season, they're probably not going to be good
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: enough to make the playoffs, but I don't think giant
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: fans were expecting to make the playoffs before the season started.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: Is the Giants season over? I guess it is. If
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Jackson Dart is out for the year, yeah, I guess
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: the season's kind of over.
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: And especially after that week one performance where you're coming
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: off that emotional high of beating the rival Cowboys, where
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: Giants fans have been a laughingstock in the NFL the
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: past couple of years, and finally you get that result
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: beating the Cowboys, and you're saying, okay, maybe things are changing.
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: Maybe Harbaugh is changing the culture right away from week one.
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: And you get the disappointment last night on top of
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: the fact that now your potential franchise quarterback is potentially
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: done for the season.
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it stinks. I like Jackson Dart.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: The reason I'm bummed today, and I shouldn't be really
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: that bummed, is I enjoy watching Jackson Dart play. I
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: think Jackson Dart is going to be an incredible quarterback,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: and so I'm kind of bummed, even as a Jet fan,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: because I was excited for the Giants and their fan
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: base because they have the coolest thing in sports, a young,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: cool quarterback with a great personality.
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: I'm going to be the one to do it, right?
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: It's going to be me.
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: I'm going to do it.
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: Is Jackson Dart injury prone? Are we done trusting Jackson Dart?
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: When you go into next year, if he has now
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: missed two full seasons almost, are we now going into
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: next year saying, well, they got Jackson Dart?
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: Right, and I'll take it one step further.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: If the Giants tank the rest of the year with
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Jameis Winston as their quarterback, are they going to take
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Arch Manning in the draft?
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: How about that?
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: All right. eli might have something to say yeah.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: Eli would be happy i mean uncle eli i.
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: Don't think so what do you mean i don't think
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: so why go somewhere else and make your own that's
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: my team that's my that is i already planted the
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: manning flag in new york you go elsewhere.
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: But if you are a giants fan you have to
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: be rooting for a potential arch manning reunion because then
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: you could just you could just tape that second number
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: on the jersey and your old Eli Manning jerseys go
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: right back into use. But I think it is a
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: bit unfair to say Jackson Dart is injury prone just
• 5:54
  Speaker 5: because of how much of a freak injury yesterday was
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: like jackson dart didn't put himself in a bad situation
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: that injury.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Could happen to any quarterback in the nfl at any
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: time in any game in any moment it just happens
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: it's a it's a brutal game they're playing out there
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: and people get hurt i mean.
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: I agree i agree with you i'm not trying to
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: say he's injury prone but i am saying he's two
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: for two right he's two for two he's had two
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: seasons he's had two season ending injuries in two seasons
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: At some point, you got to go, can we count
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: on him next year? When we go, oh, all the hype.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: We got this guy. We brought in this coach. All
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: these things are going well for us as the New
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: York Giants. And our quarterback is Jackson Dart. Are you
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: really going? Yeah, that's our quarterback for 17 games.
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: I can't.
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: I think if you're a Giants fan, you have to
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: spin zone yourself into the idea of Jameis Winston, where
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: yesterday looked like Jameis Winston was had no plans of
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: ever playing in an NFL game again.
• 6:51
  Speaker 6: Why would he?
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: The second he got there, he was all wide-eyed and like,
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: he didn't look like a quarterback that was prepared. He
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: looked like a quarterback that was just thrown into the game.
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: So now that you're going into week three saying, Winston
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: is our starting quarterback, maybe Winston prepares better. It's a
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: bit unfair of me to say that Winston wasn't prepared
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: as a quarterback, but after what we saw last night,
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: I actually don't think it's that unfair.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: That's fair.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: When.
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: When the Giants play the Commanders, it's Winston versus Mariota.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: Oh, wow. Blast from the past.
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: The first and the second pick of that draft.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Wait, as a Giant fan, though, what are you rooting for?
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: Like a magical season at this point, right? Because Jackson
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Dart is done. Are you rooting for some sort of
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: magical season with Jameis Winston? hoping he can carry you
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: into the playoffs and keep the momentum going with John
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Arbaugh as his quarterback? Or are you now rooting for
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: them to be as bad as possible to get a
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: higher draft pick?
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: What are you rooting for as a giant fit?
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: I think you're rooting.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: I think you're rooting for Jameis Winston to carry you
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: into some sort of playoffs, or at least in the conversation.
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: You're hoping for more good Jameis than bad Jameis.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: And I don't think, That team is going to with
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: that coach and Jameis Winston's highs. I don't think they're
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: going to ever be bad enough to be talking about.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: That's fair.
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: I would be rooting for a high pick just to
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: add to this core. But I do think the giant
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: fan has been so lousy for so long recently, especially
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: when they come in with expectations of like what Giants
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: football can be. I think the Giants fans right now
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: are just rooting for competent football, and it seems like
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: that's what you're at the very least going to get
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: with Harbaugh.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: You know, you talk about Jameis Winston, and he didn't
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: look very prepared last night. I don't think Jameis at
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: this point in his career wants to be prepared or
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: wants to prepare. I think he is fine being the
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: most popular guy in the locker room, delivering nothing but
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: positivity and great pregame speeches.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: I think this is something that Jameis Winston did not want.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: He didn't want another chance to prove that he could
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: be a great quarterback in the NFL. He just likes
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: that everyone in the locker room loves him, and now
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: he's been thrown into action here where he actually has
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: to study game film, which is something I don't believe
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: Jameis Winston wants to do. I think the Giants might
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: have to be in the market for a new quarterback.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: How about that? Yeah.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: He was enjoying the podcast game and I get it.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: He was.

• 9:53
  Speaker 1: the head coach of Kentucky football, going to join us
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: in the 4 o'clock hour as well. But Mikey Taylor
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: has a couple of NFL questions for us.
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: Are you ready?
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: I love it. What do you have for us?
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: This is what I wait all year for.
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: What, NFL questions? From Taylor. Just from Taylor, right. Go ahead, Taylor.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: What do you have for us?
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: So there are seven teams currently at 0-2. So my
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: question for you guys, which 0-2 team should feel the
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: worst about themselves today? There's the Chargers, the Texans, the Falcons,
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: the Dolphins, the Titans, the Buccaneers, and the Colts.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: So it feels like an obvious answer to me, Mikey.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know about you. For me, it would be
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: the Houston Texans, right?
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: I mean....
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: Um, I mean, yeah, it's, it, it hasn't been good
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: for Houston. Um, you're, you're counting on that defense becoming
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: what it was last year. At this point though, it's
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: time to let, like, let's see it.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: Uh, the chargers is a very easy answer for me.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: Uh, you didn't just lose, you lost at home to
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: two teams that we go, we went into the season
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: thinking would be fighting for, uh, maybe the top draft pick.
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: So you think the Chargers are the team that's 0-2
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: that is the most disappointing? I think it's the Texans
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: only because everyone says to me it's not the Titans.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: It's none of those teams.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Maybe the Buccaneers would be in the mix in terms
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: of teams that started 0-2 that should feel bad about it.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: But when you're talking, you know, when everyone's telling us, hey,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: championship defense and C.J. Stroud is playing OK, I'd be concerned.
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: With the Texans being 0-2. It's just me.
• 11:27
  Speaker 6: Okay, but let me just throw this at you.
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: At the Bills, at the Seahawks, home against the Broncos,
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: at the Chiefs, at the Rams, against the Texans, at
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: the Ravens. Where do you see a win in there
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: for this Justin Herbert-led Los Angeles Chargers?
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: I don't.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: I mean, maybe they're marching for Arch. How about that?
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: So can I make the argument for some of the
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: teams that you guys didn't mention? Because I think you
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: can make an argument for almost any team at 0-2
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: for who should feel the worst about themselves.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: Not all of them.
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: The Colts, you're 0-2, and when you're so bad, you
• 12:02
  Speaker 5: have the life raft of, okay, at least we're going
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: to get a good pick out of this. The Colts
• 12:06
  Speaker 5: do not have that, that life raft because of the
• 12:08
  Speaker 5: sauce Gardner trade in a first round pick coming back
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: to the jets.
• 12:11
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: They thought they were a cornerback away.
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: They weren't. I'll make an argument for another team.
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: The Tennessee Titans, you might be awful and you might
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: not have a quarterback. Like, you used the number one
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: overall pick on Cam Ward, and he has not played
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: anything like even Tyler Shuck, who was.
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: Picked in the second round of that draft.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a totally fair point because you can, listen,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: if you're a Titans fan, you'd be okay being 0-2
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: as long as you saw some progress from Cam Ward.
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: You haven't seen anything from Cam Ward. Nothing.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Nothing that would give you any sort of proof that
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: this guy is going to be a long-term answer at
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: the quarterback position for them.
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: And I feel like you could even strengthen the argument
• 12:55
  Speaker 5: even further by reminding Titans fans, Robert Sala is your
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: head coach.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: What's your next question for us?
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: Which 2-0 team do you trust the least? So the
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: 2-0 teams are the Bills, the Bengals, the Raiders, the Chiefs,
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: the Eagles. The Vikings, the Seahawks, and the 49ers.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Most people would say the Raiders. I'm not so certain
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: it is the Raiders. 2-0 teams that you trust the least.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: Wow, that's a good question.
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: While you look at it and think, I'm going to
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: say I'm most people.
• 13:30
  Speaker 6: It's the Raiders. Congratulations, you beat Miami.
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: Maybe Los Angeles isn't as good as we thought, but
• 13:38
  Speaker 4: you're still a ways away from being a legit contender,
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: especially in a division with the Chiefs and the Broncos.
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: But I like what I'm seeing out of the Raiders.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: I think they're on a good trajectory, but they're not
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: a threat.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: All right, I'm going to go Minnesota Vikings here. Kyler
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Murray's hurt. Carson Wentz, the quarterback. They're in a tough division.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: Their next three games, though, are fairly easy. So now
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: I'm starting to think about it.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: They have Miami.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Well, the Saints is not easy. And then they're home
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: against the Colts. But I don't trust that team. I
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: don't trust that coach. I don't trust that quarterback, Carson Wentz.
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: And I don't trust Kyler Murray when he comes back
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: as well. So I'm going to say the Minnesota Vikings.
• 14:19
  Speaker 5: Mikey, I think the Raiders is the popular pick, but
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: I'm kind of with Stu here because I think it
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: kind of just boils down to, Who do you trust more,
• 14:26
  Speaker 5: Carson Wentz or Kirk Cousins? And I think the Raiders
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: have kind of proved why you go out and get
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: a Kirk Cousins because he could go out and win
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: you games that you really don't have any business winning.
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: Right, as long as they're in the playoffs.
• 14:38
  Speaker 6: Sure, he can win you seven or eight games.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but he won too early. And as long as
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: they're in the hunt, they're not going back to Mendoza.
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: So for me, I don't know. It's Minnesota.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: I can tell you the 0-2 team that I feel
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: best about. And that's the Dolphins. The Dolphins are doing
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: exactly what the Dolphins are supposed to do, and they
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: should feel great about their 0-2 start.

  Speaker 1: enough trips to plan for the remainder of the college
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: football season.
• 15:35
  Speaker 7: One.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Just do one. Just do one. I said I'd go
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: to Memphis. I forget the other place we committed to.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Somewhere in Texas or Oklahoma. Where are we going?
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: Oklahoma State.
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: Still water. Go Pokes.
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: Find a Thursday Kentucky game we can go to so
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: we don't miss the rest of the college football weekend.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: We like to play.
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: You don't play on Thursdays.
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: We like to play a game around here. If the
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: season ended today, Mikey A is the host of this game.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: We will get to it in a second.
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: Mikey A, do you remember why and how we started
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: if the season ended today?
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: I have no idea. I can't remember.
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: Two words, Billy Gill.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: Oh, that's right.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: Because he always liked to discuss, if the season ended today,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: what the playoff matchups would be.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: So with that being said, let's get to it, Mikey.
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: Okay, I'm going to start this week in the NFC.
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: In the NFC, if the season ended today, the Minnesota
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: Vikings are the number one seed.
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: Wow. They get a bye.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: If the season ended today, would Kevin O'Connell be coach
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: of the year? Possibly. I mean, a one seed with
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: Carson Wentz? If the season ended today, of course.
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: Well, if the season ended today, your first playoff matchup
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: in the NFC would be the Chicago Bears led by Tyson.
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: Bajan against the Seattle Seahawks.
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: If it were a playoff game, he'd be healthy enough
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: to play. Come on. I don't know.
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: He might have stepped on a Lego.
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: Stop that.
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: Bajan versus Drew Locke sounds like my worst nightmare of
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: the game.
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: Wait, give me the matchup again.
• 17:15
  Speaker 6: Chicago versus Seattle. Bajan versus Drew Locke.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God. But that's only if the season ended today.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: I got to tell you, that's a playoff game I
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: wouldn't watch just because of the quarterbacks.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: Yes, you would. How about this?
• 17:29
  Speaker 6: Your second matchup.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we didn't discuss who would win that game, though.
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: I mean....
• 17:34
  Speaker 6: Who wins between Tyson Bajan and Drew Locke?
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: We all lose. Next game.
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: The Detroit Lions at the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: What a great game. Welcome back to the playoffs, Detroit Lions.
• 17:49
  Speaker 6: That's a great game. That might be your Sunday nighter.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Yes, it might be. Wow, what a great game that
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: would be. I would take the Eagles to win that.
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts is on a mission this year to prove
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: that he doesn't need A.J.
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: Brown or anyone else.
• 18:05
  Speaker 7: Taylor?
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: Taylor?
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: The Eagles too. He forgot how to play.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: I also take the Eagles, but it's got nothing to
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: do with him. Your last matchup in the NFC, right?
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: Would be the San Francisco 49ers traveling cross country to
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: take on the NFC South winning Carolina.
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: Wow. What a game.
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: Wow. Yes.
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: Christian McCaffrey returns to Carolina.
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: Revenge game.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: Waiting.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: So in this scenario, if the season ends today, the
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: Rams are not making the playoffs, right?
• 18:36
  Speaker 6: Rams didn't make the playoffs.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 18:38
  Speaker 6: I mean, there's a lot of tiebreakers in there as
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: to why, but we don't get it.
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: So it was the field. It was the field. I
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: would take Carolina just because I love Carolina. They're entertaining.
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: And I want to see Carolina go to a Superbowl.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: I do. I really do.
• 18:53
  Speaker 6: Carolina in the upset.
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: I've got, I've got the 49ers, the 49ers right now
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: are my dark horse Superbowl.
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: But it considered a dark horse.
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: No. Well, I think before the season started, yeah.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Before the season started, they were a dark horse just
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: based on the division they were in with Seattle, with
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: the Rams, but now no longer a dark horse.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: They had beaten the Rams.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: And it feels like they almost have too much talent
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: and too many big names to be considered a dark horse. Like,
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: You have Christian McCaffrey, Brock Purdy, George Kittle. Like, you're
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: not really a dark horse at that point.
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: Debo, yes. Debo's back.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: But if Carolina gets past that game, just based on
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: the injuries to the cornerbacks, they have a shot.
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: They do. Just wanted to throw that in there.
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: What?
• 19:38
  Speaker 6: The Super Bowl? Yeah, why not? The NFC.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: Special agent Drew Locke.
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: I mean, they have a chance. Carson Wentz.
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Carson Wentz. What a terrible NFC playoff. Oh my God.
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: I haven't even gotten to the AFC yet.
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: If we are at radio row, this super bowl.
• 19:56
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: And the Carolina Panthers are in the super bowl.
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: Yep.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: You guys have my word. I will do the entire
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: week of shows in a full Panthers costume. Yeah.
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: Let's see who they're going to play because I might
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: not go. Okay.
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: It's a, it's a, it's a trip to Los Angeles.
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: You're going to go in the AFC. Your number one
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: seed surprise, surprise, the Kansas city chiefs. Welcome back.
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: Yup.
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: Now they're back. They're officially back.
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: Your first matchup, the New York jet.
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: At the Buffalo bills.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: All right the chiefs get the uh the bye week
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: so it's jets at bills divisional matchup josh allen trying
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: to win that elusive super bowl ring oh wow.
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: And you would figure at this point that it's tough
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: to beat a team three times you would almost assume
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: that the bills won the first two matchups i've got
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: this spread at about minus 19.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: Bills yeah and i would take the jets i would
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: take the jets to win the game outright how about
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: that yeah I have the jets advancing.
• 21:05
  Speaker 6: Give me play off Josh Allen and the jets advance.
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: I would love that.
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: God, the jets are making your next matchup. The new
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: England Patriots at the Cincinnati bangles with that defense.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: Wow. So Joe Brown gets in, he has a defense.
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: He has two great wide receivers. The Patriots are the Patriots.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: I would take Cincinnati in that game because the Patriots
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: are a good team, but they're boring Cincinnati.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: Good team.
• 21:31
  Speaker 6: Exciting.
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: Give me good team.
• 21:33
  Speaker 6: Exciting. Every single time.
• 21:35
  Speaker 5: So I would pick the pats here, but this is
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: a matchup of two quarterbacks that have made it to
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: a Superbowl that people are looking at them now and saying,
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: I might be the only time you make it to.
• 21:44
  Speaker 7: A Superbowl or that three AFC East teams, by the way,
• 21:51
  Speaker 7: it was a lousy one headed into the season, but
• 21:53
  Speaker 7: if the season ended today, it might be the best
• 21:55
  Speaker 7: division of football.
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: There you go.
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: Uh, Last playoff matchup.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: If the season ended today, the Las Vegas Raiders are
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: on the road.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: At the Jacksonville Jaguars.
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: So Kirk cousins, because if they make the playoffs, Kirk
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: cousins is going to be the quarterback.
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: Correct?
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, it would stand to reason if they
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: make the playoffs.
• 22:21
  Speaker 6: Right. Well, if the season ended today, he is.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: He is the starting quarterback.
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: You're right.
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Mikey. I got ahead of myself.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: This matchup has Texans 4 p.m. on Saturday. TJ Yates
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: has the quarterback window written all over.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no doubt. It has those kind of vibes.
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: You're right about that.
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: Just like trying to sneak it out.
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 22:40
  Speaker 6: Yes. Quickly, speaking of the Houston Texans, if the season
• 22:44
  Speaker 6: ended today.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 22:45
  Speaker 6: They're on the clock.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: Number one pick.
• 22:48
  Speaker 6: Number one pick for Houston, Texas.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: Wow, you put Arch Manning with that defense?
• 22:52
  Speaker 7: Listen, thankfully, we have 15 more weeks of this crap.
