  Speaker 2: Alec Pierce.
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: Excuse me, Welcome to the show, Bud. Yes, thank you,
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: thanks having Yes, thank you.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: For being here. We appreciate you being here. I want
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: to talk to both of you a little bit as
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: we get into things, because I think both of you
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: maybe didn't have your season and the way that you
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: had hoped initially, but it doesn't take away from all
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: the great things you guys have done this season. For you, specifically,
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: you had a great showing on Sunday six catches, one
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty two yards, one touchdown. What was the
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: key to success for you on Sunday.
• 1:10
  Speaker 4: Just you know, got a lot of opportunities, especially in
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: the game kind of you know, we had Joe Flakaway
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: in the quarterback and I've learned that Joe kind of
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: is one of the guys that he'll just give you chances.
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: He's gonna throw it up to you, even if you
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: might have some defenders on you. So that's he just
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: gave me some chances and I was able to make
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: some plays, and yeah, it just kind of went from there.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: I love it. Deebo. Did you get a chance to
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: watch the Colts play?
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: Oh? Nah, dud. I had a lot of family here
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: all week, so I was just you know, all over
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: the place for the most part.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: It was the holidays. It was the holidays. And Devo,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: you yourself also had a pretty awesome Monday night football performance,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: and we'll get to that a little later in the show. Again,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: maybe your team's success was not the way neither of
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: you wanted the season to end, but both of you,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: nonetheless have had your own personal successes. Alec, I want
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: to ask you, have you seen the comments from Pat
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: McAfee as of late. Maybe you haven't, And if you haven't,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: I can tell you what some of the things he's
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: been saying.
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I've seen some of the things he's been saying,
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: and you know that's you know, he's he's he's a
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: grave for our organization, you know, so I think he's
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: entitled to have his own opinion and and all that.
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: But yeah, I won't I won't get too much into that.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I just want to know from you
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: without getting too much into what he said, because, like
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: you said, everyone's entitled to their opinion. But how would
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: you debunk the claims that there is maybe a culture
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: issue uh in in Indie and that there's red flags
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: all over this program? How would you debunk that statement
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: by Pat?
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: You know, like, I think he made some statements about
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: the culture, and you know, I just know the guys
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: in the locker room we have and I do think
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: we have a very like high level, high level culture
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: in high level people in our locker room, just from
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: a cultural standpoint, you know, people that work hard, people
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: that you know, get along together well. So I wasn't
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: exactly sure where those comments came from. But you know,
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: like I said, everyone their own opinion, and you're.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Right about that, yeah, and typically people do have their
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: their own opinions.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Devo.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: You can kind of speak to that though. Do you
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: feel like when people make comments like that, you know,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: the saying where there's smoke, there's fire. Do you think
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: that some things truly have no backing to them at
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: all and people are just talking to talk.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you see that lot for sure, people just talking
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: to talk. I mean they see one person say, you know,
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: it's like a it's like a chain reaction. They see
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: one person say one thing, and they like, oh, I'm
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: gonna say the same thing. They say it but in
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: a different way than here, come to the next person,
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: and then the next person, and they don't really know what.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: They are going on for real.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's easy to have that outside perspective
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: and think that you know everything. And again, and like
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Alex said, people are entitled to their opinion, but doesn't
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: always make it right. I would ask both of you guys,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: and I'm gonna start with Alec, what do you think
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: it's going to take or what needs to change within
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: your team to make a playoff runt next season.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: I think we just need to take that next step,
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: you know. I think ever since our new coach came in,
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: you know, like last year it was our first year
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: with the new staff and we ended up going nine
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: and eight. We were just kind of right on that cusp.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: Just one game away, and then this year, you know,
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: kind of similar situation where we like coming down to December,
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: we had to win some games and unfortunately we didn't
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: get it done, but we were just we were also
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: really close. And I think the biggest thing that we've
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: let down has been just early in the season, we
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: got to do better against the division. Like I know,
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: last year we lost two games early to Jacksonville and
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: they were kind of in the driver's seat for the
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: longest time to win our division. And then Houston kind
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: of came out of nowhere. But jackson was really that
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: team I'd say, like early in the year that was
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: that was kind of like the favorites. This year, the
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: same same thing happened this year with Houston, you know.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: So it was just it was just it was a
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: lot just losing that game, that game, first game of
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: the year, and then we went down to Houston, you know,
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: maybe a week six or seven, kind of like early
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: in the year still and we lost to them again,
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: and just you know how it is if you lose
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: two games to a team in the division, like that's
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: a tiebreaker right there. So we got you gotta Yeah,
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: it's it's it's like those games are like worth double
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: pretty much.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I think Deevo you can probably relate to
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: that a little bit because your division this year was
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: just weird. It was very weird. It felt like it
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: was just a constant blood bath, a battle back and forth.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Did you what do you think the forty nine ers
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: need to do differently to get back on track. I
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: would say, because it's you guys have been a playoff.
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we just at the end of the day, we
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: got to protect the ball on offense. At the end
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: of the day, we got to take the ball on defense.
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: This game come down to the ball, protecting it and
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: taking it away at the end of the day, we
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: didn't We didn't do that as well we have these
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: previous years. But ultimately, like you know, injuries and everything
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: come with this game. It's just try to be, you know,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: as healthy as you can throughout the year. Certain things
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: you can't control. That happened to a couple of players
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: early on and during the season, but you know, that
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: kind of took a toll on people. So at the
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: end of the day, you if you see one of
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: your brothers heard it, kind of take it kind of
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: affected you as well.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: But at the end of the day. This is a job.
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: You've got to continue to go out there and work.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: But ultimately, like you know, be as healthy as we
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: can stack dubs, like be better at protecting and taking
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: taking the ball away.
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely. A Like, let's talk a little bit about
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: your quarterback and Anthony Richardson. I'm actually a huge fan
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: of it is. I love his game. Uh, he's very physical,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: He's very very fun to watch. What is something that
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: you've seen in practice that maybe the fans have not
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: seen from Anthony Richardson that maybe shocked you or something
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: that uh you admire about him that we don't get
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: to see.
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean he's had some throws in practice. You know,
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: obviously you see the ones in the game, and he's
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: made some throws I think this year that like private
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: quarterbacks have never ever made in the in the league.
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: But just the throws in like continuation of that, the
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: throws he makes in practice, like when he's especially when
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: he's like moving out the pocket kind of extending plays,
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: just like launching one downfield yor fitting one in a
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: tight window. He's just got He's got so much on
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: talent and so much athletic ability, Like he can make
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: all those like crazy off flat room throws and all that.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: So it's pretty fun as a receiver because you're kind
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: of always alive and you know, it keeps you like
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: just once the play breaks down. First of all, like
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: you only like he never really gets tackled by Like
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: he can break like a d n like real those
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: those big guys up there, like they kind of struggle
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: to take him down anyways. So he's got that, and
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: then he can just break the pocket and get outside
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: and scramble around and make those throws.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: He's very, very fun to watch. I've definitely enjoyed watching him.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: Do you think people overreacted to the tap out incident
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: with Anthony Richardson earlier this season?
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think people did overreact. I mean I don't
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: I know in our locker room, I don't think it
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: was at all like a like a big issue. I think,
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: you know, I think he more so just like learned
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: learned a lesson from that that Like it's more so
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: about the optics of it, you know, like he like
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: he's a guy that he's going to be our leader
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: of our team and all that, so like just knowing
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: like the optics of that if you tap out like that.
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: People are gonna think you're like you're giving up or whatever.
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: But I mean if you go back and look at
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: the film, I mean he was running. He was running
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: around all all like all that series like a back
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: to back scrambles, and that was probably a long series.
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: So I know he was really tired and he was
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: having probably gonna have a hard time like saying the
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: playout in the huddle. But I think there's things you
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: can do, especially with quarterback, maybe take a time out
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: or whatever. Like just just got to kind of understand that.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, I think a learning lesson for sure,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: but I don't certainly I don't play in the NFL,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: but I would imagine there's probably a lot of moments
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: that as players, you're like, Okay, can I get a second?
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Like that was a lot either mentally or physically. I'm
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: sure it's pretty common. But when we talked to Josh
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: Downs earlier this season, we kind of got the same
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: sentiment from him that he feels like there was a
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: lot of maturity that came out of that situation for
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson, and he kind of glowed up in a
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: sense as a quarterback. So do you feel the same
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: way that his game kind of changed after that moment
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: for sure.
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: I think I think I think it made him understand
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: more like the role he takes as a leader of
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: the team, like being the quarterback. Obviously, you know, he's
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: a captain for us and all that, but I think
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: he probably just realized that he is really like the
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: kind of like the leader of the team, like the
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: heartbeat of the team. So I think he understood, like, Okay,
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: I gotta be kind of more, you know, like like
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: what I do is going to be a big deal
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: for everybody, even if it's just like, you know, little
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: things like that.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: So yeah, absolutely debo. Speaking of being a leader on
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: a team, you are a leader on your team, and
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: you've been in this league for a little bit now,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: you've learned a lot of things along the way. I
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: would imagine we've got Alec here, young up and coming,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: had a great season this year. What is something you
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: wish you knew when you were younger in this league
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: that you've now since learned.
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: I think everything that you know I knew now I
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: know now is I kinda I kind of knew like
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: half half half of the way through my rookie season
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: because I had Emanuel Sanders and you know, he'd been
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: in the league for a long time.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: So like when he came there, he kind of like took.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Me on his wing and literally told me everything, showed
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: me everything, and just watching him and how he went
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: about work, practice and all those type of things. It's
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: just like when he came in, it just changed my
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: perspective of you know, how I approached the game for
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: us every rip and you know, like you know at practice,
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: say you mess up on a route and you know
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: you only get one off a week. You know, you
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: installed on Wednesday, you installed on Thursday, you install on Friday,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: and you go out to practice and you mess up.
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: It's kind of like in the coach's head, he's like,
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: can I call this in the game? Will he miss
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: it up again?
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: So it's just like when your number is called, always
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: be prepared, like be ready.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: For the moment. Don't let the moment be too big
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: for you.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: And like studying the place because like like for me,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: like they have me doing so much stuff and this
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: is that and the third and sometimes I still fell
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: up at the end of the day. Like if I'm
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: messed up, I'm messed up. Going full speed?
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Who, Alec? Who is your version of Emmanuel Sanders
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: to debo? Uh with the Colts, someone that took you
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: under their wing.
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah. So I was always a part of like a
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: really really young receiver room because you know t Y
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: Hilton was he was like I never got to play
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: with him. He left and then they brought me in.
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: So like Michael, it's kind always been my my veteran leader,
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: my rookie year, you know, is Michael Pittman, Paris Campbell,
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: those two Ashton doing and then you know PC hadn't
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: been with us the last two years, but Ashton and
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: pitt are still there. So those guys I look up too.
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: I just kind of like learned the work ethic and
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: like with the way to go about your business from now.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I love that. Do you know anything you want
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: to ask Alec while we've got them here?
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: Glenn Bird? Am I saying that? Right? Glin Bird?
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: Glenberg West? Yeah?
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Glenberg West High School right outside of Chicago, and
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: then Cincinnati for college football? What was your recruitment like
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: what other schools was? You know you was considering another
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: than Cincinnati?
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I was. You know, for me, I always really
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: wanted to play in the Big Ten and I didn't
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: have any those opportunities, Like I think, you know somebody.
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: Both my parents went to Northwestern and played sports there,
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: so I grew up watching a ton of big tents boards,
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: going to football games. My dad played football there, my
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: mom played volleyball there. So for me, like, I really
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: want to go to Northwestern even though they were never
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: never great, I would have gone there if they offered me.
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: But other than that, you know, any of those Big
• 13:13
  Speaker 4: Ten schools, I kind of watched so much of it,
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: so I would have loved to play up there. And
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: it really like SEC, they don't come up and recruit,
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: like they don't really recruit, especially like skill position now
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: really recruiting out of the like Illinois and stuff like that.
• 13:26
  Speaker 4: So I probably had no chance going down there. But yeah,
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: for me, like it was like, you know, the Big
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: ten schools were trying to get me to walk on.
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: I was kind of like a late bloomer a little
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: bit you know later to getting recruited and stuff like that,
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: and a lot of the max schools I had, I
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: got offers from those schools and ended up you know, Cincinnati,
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: Like I played out my senior year because I wanted
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: to get a scholarship to a Big ten school and
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: none of it happened. But the only offer I got
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: for my senior year was Cincinnati, And you know, at
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: the time, like they were I was probably gonna go
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: to like Miami or High or something in the the
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: MAC and Cincinnati was like both they were both four
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: and eight. They're kind of like the same level. They
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: played each other every year, Like Cincinnati barely beat them
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: that year, so they weren't really better than them. But
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: like when I went and visited there, it just felt
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: like it felt like a lot bigger like possibilities there,
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: you know, like like the stadium, the the atmosphere. I
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: feel like they cared about like their sports and stuff,
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: you know, like Oscar Robertson played basketball there, Like they
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: have a top basketball program, Like their football had been
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: really good when Travis kelce Jason Kelcey were there. So yeah,
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: it just felt like bigger opportunity, and you know, I
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: ended up going there. First year, we kind of won
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: eleven games off a lot of luck, and then the
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: next I think we won like yeah, we we like
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: we didn't really play anyone my first year one eleven games.
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: Next year we won eleven games. Again, still didn't win conference.
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: And then the last two years, like we were like
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: a top ten team in the country, ended up playing
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: you know, my my senior year, we played in the
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: playoffs against Bama. So yeah, it was pretty cool, like
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: with nine guys drafted out of my class, so it
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: was pretty special because we were technically like we were
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: an American Yeah, we were like a group of five schools,
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: so we were in like a big, big time school
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: at that time. But now they're in the Big twelve.
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: So I can say, you know, I helped him do that.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: So you played your part, for sure. You play that
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: you played at Cincinnati with Sauce for sure. Any college stories,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: funny practice in the game.
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: Man, we so, so he always played to the boundary.
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: We had Sauce, we had Kobe Bryant was our other corner,
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: so we had we had a lot of really good
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: secondary and yeah, me and so I always played. I
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: played boundary receivers. So I go against him every day
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: in practice, and like he's like he's like very like
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: like he's pretty like he's super competitive. He's gonna go
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: hard in practice, but he's kind of like chill, like
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: he's laid back, like he's gonna be kind of like
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: like if he's talking, it's like real lighthearted, you know.
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: So we, uh, we would get after it, and you know,
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: I think I'm kind of the same way. And but yeah,
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: we definitely have some stories of like just like us
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: getting getting them getting pissed at each other and like
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: fighting out there and like that's that's not really either
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: of us. So like people always love him. We would
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: do some stuff like that, but we would get on
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: each other's nerves a little bit, you know, because he's
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: a good player. And now I'm out there we practice
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: on Sundays the day after the game. I'm out there
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: like hurting from the day before the game. He tried
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: to jam me a little too hard and I'm like
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: took him down. Tackle them one time it turned to
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: the whole like fight. Everyone loved it though, So yeah.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: No, for sure, what was your you know, everybody got
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: this moment, what was your you know, welcome to the
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: NFL moment?
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: Oh man, my, So my first game, my first NFL
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: game was was terrible. We went down to play at
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: Houston and my first target was like broken down play
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: scramble they threw to me. Why it would have been
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: like probably my easiest touch in my career. I dropped it. Uh,
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: and then either like my second I ended up with
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: no catches on the day, probably like three targets, no catches.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: My second or third target, they threw me like a
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: It was like a backside end route in quarterback kind
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: of held the ball for a while, so I got
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: to like those quarters, I got to the backside safety.
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: He threw it and it was Petriot and he was
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: a rookie to his first game, and he hit me
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: so hard he bent my face mask in. So I
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: actually got it. I actually got a concussion that game.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Your toughest dB you played against the NFL. Give me
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: your three no order?
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: Uh, I'd say, I'd say certain certain is really good.
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: We just played him a few weeks. She like she
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: likes that answer.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I do this every week. Devo gets sick of
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: it every week, and I just don't stop.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: So yeah, I would say, I mean sauce in my
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: guy from college, so that I got the most you
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: know reps against him, uh, out of any any DV
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: in the in the league. And then you know, honestly
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: in the in the slot, like Kenny Moore. Just year
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: in year out, he's been Yeah, I don't get to
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: go against a ton of gout, slack guys on Yeah,
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: I'm usually on the outside, so I don't get to go.
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: It's a ton of slack guys. But just watching Kennedy play,
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: like he's just been getting so many turnovers and like
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: last year he single handling won us again he got
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: two pick sixes and our offense wasn't do anything. He
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: basically won the game for us. So yeah, like he's
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: he's pretty special. Watch he makes some crazy plays. He's
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: probably the hardest guy I've ever had to like block,
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: Like you like can't even like it's hard to touch him.
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: Like if you's got like a bubble screen or something
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: you got to block him. It's like it's like good luck,
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: you know. So he's just so quick. So yeah, i'd
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: say that was one, like probably top three.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: I like it. I like it a lot. Uh, well,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: let me flash you back. Oh I'm sorry, let me.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: We're gonna flash back to your getting drafted moment, second
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: round pick in the twenty twenty two NFL Draft. Take
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: us through the moment of getting the call from the Colts,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: and did you know that you would be going there
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: pre draft? Did you have any idea?
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: So like, I actually I kind of thought I was
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: going to go there. It was actually funny because my
• 19:05
  Speaker 4: my barber, well it was like it was I thought
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: I was gonna go there or the Bears or the
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: Packers and okay, but my barber, I guess, like my
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: barber text my friend. He cut all my my boy's
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: hair in college, and he texted my friend and he said,
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: like he said, like a llah came down to him
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: in the night and gave him like and told him
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: that that I was going to be on the Colts
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: or something. So he got a little like he got
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: he got. Yeah, he basically said he had like a
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: vision because he texted he texted my friend like before
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: like in the morning of the draft that you know,
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: so like wow, he basically called up a shot. But
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: that was that was pretty cool to hear because my
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: friend didn't say anything to me, but he only told
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: me after, you.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Know, but oh, that's crazy. I low key I get
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: scared of like fortune tellers because I don't really want
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: to know. Like sometimes I'm scared they're going to say
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: something like oh I pictured this happening, and it's like, whoa,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: I did not need to like ignorance is but that's
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: really cool that he had like a moment.
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: Yes, it was wild. Yeah, but it was a special
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: day for sure. And I was with all my family, friends,
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: friends from home, friends from school. A lot of my
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: teammates came up. So yeah, this was a good day.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: Question, last question on the draft, sorry Debo, last question
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: on the draft. Do you remember all of the receivers
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: that were taking ahead of you in the draft? Yeah?
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: I don't. Maybe he doesn't, but I'm we're going to
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: test his knowledge in his memory.
• 20:34
  Speaker 4: I I I do, but like I don't know if
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: like I don't know if I do honestly, Like I
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: don't remember. I think I was like this, I was
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: like the twelve or thirteenth I was like the twelfth
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: or thirteenth receiver taken. I think, and I know there
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: was like I could, I could probably I could probably
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: name home. It'll be a fun game try to do.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: Okay, here we go.

  Speaker 1: of all, we got to talk about Monday night football game.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: There's a few ways that we can there's a few
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: ways we can dissect this. Of course. However, I saw
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: you score again, Yes I did. I sure did see it.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: I sure did see it, and I was very proud
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: of you, very excited for you. Take me through, Take
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: me through that game. We knew it was gonna be tough.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: The Lions, despite being riddled with injuries, they are a
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: great team. But you guys really kind of had like
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: a spark of life that I think I have been
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: personally waiting to see from the forty nine ers this season.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: It was a very fun game going back and forth.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Talk me through how you felt in that one and
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: how you felt after that game.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: It was definitely a fun game for sure. You know,
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: the best fans in the world, you know, they was there.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: It was rocking out. We came out hot, and you know,
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: with a game like that, with you know how explosive
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: day offense is and how well we was playing, it
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: was like it's gonna come down.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: To the ball and you know, we had two turnovers.
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: I think they had none.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: So at the end of the day, it's you know,
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: with a game with a shootout like that, when you
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: know we kind of going back and forth all game,
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: it's like, all right, man, let's get a stop. Let's
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: get a stop. They stopped this. You know, we kind
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: of laying on our defense a good bit, but you know,
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: they had a good game plan. We had a good
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: game plan, and you know, it was a shootout. It
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: was definitely a fun game though for sure.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, it was definitely back and forth. I was
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: very you had a kick return. He kind of got

  Speaker 2: I can come in there with you know, not in
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: the best mood in the world, but you see this,
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: you see these guys just walking the room smiling either year,
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: jumping up and down. Just that and the third and
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: you know, with with you know, the way he played
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: last night, man, you can kind of see my emotion
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: for him during the game, like every play he made.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: You know, I'm right there with him, you know, with
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: the stuff that he dealt with. And you know, when
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: that situation happened, probably one of the first couple of
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: people to reach out and you know, make sure he
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: was good. And ever since then, like me and Ricky,
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: has just been ascited as you can get.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: I love that. I just not to be corny, but
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: I did just get goosebumps. Don't worry about it. Maybe
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: the air just popped on. Maybe that's what it was.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: I think the air conditioning just turned on. So don't
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: worry about that. I know that he has learned a
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: lot from you. But you kind of maybe just answered
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: the question that I want to ask as a follow up,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: which is what have you learned from him? It sounds
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: like maybe his contagious energy.
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: Nah, his something you've learned.
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: What else have you learned from Ricky?
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: His energy is through the roof.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: One thing I learned by Ricky, You know with you know,
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: dealing with what he's dealt with is just like you
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: can never take this game life for granted and for
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: him to you know, go through the situation that he
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: went through and came back and fitishing the season as
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: strong as he is right now and we got one
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: game left, is you know, this guy's the limit for him.
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: Like I said, weekend and week out throughout the show,
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: like Ricky's going to be a guy in this league.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: He's trained that way, he prepared that way, and you
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: know that's how you go about work.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: I love that. One other thing that came out of
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: this game was forty nine Ers owner Jed Yorke saying
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: empathetically that Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch aren't going anywhere. Deebo,
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: what is your reaction to the leaders staying with the
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: forty nine ers?
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean we all know that, you know,
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: kind of like what we were just talking about earlier,
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: like people gonna say, you know, they see one person
• 29:58
  Speaker 2: to say something about something and then all of a sudden,
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: it's just a chain reaction. But at the end of
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: the day, no one knows what go on in the building.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: But as Jid coaches, players, and at the end of
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: the day, like we know, John nick Cole is not
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: going nowhere, So it's like, you know, we don't even
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: feed until all they give it the energy at.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: The end of the day.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: Love that, and I would imagine as much as you
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: guys want them to stay, they also it sounds like
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: they want to be a part of the forty nine
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: ers organization. There's been a lot of media and fans
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: that have been pushing for Kyle to be traded to
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: the Bears. I just can't picture him wanting that. I mean,
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: no offense to the Bears, but.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: He don't want to go nowhere.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, sorry Bears, Sorry Bears. I think he's he's staying
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: with San Francisco here. Okay, let's get to your state
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: Farm Bundle of the week debo. We've had some exceptional
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: performances in the NFL. Kind of feels like it's getting
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: hard to pick your bundle because of how much talent
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: is in this league. But we'll start with the quarterback.
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna call him the quarterback right now because he
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: really is saying exceptionally well. Baker Mayfield.
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: You know I talked about you know, I talk about
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: Bake a good bit with.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: You know, yeah, he's fantastic.
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: Like he's like the spark of the team, like the energy,
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: like the leader, the guy with all the energy. This
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: is that and the third And to have a guy
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: like that on your team as a quarterback, it's just no, like, man,
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: this man gonna give you everything he got. Like he's
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: not the biggest, he's not the tallest, he's not the fastest,
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: but at the end of the day, you should just
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: he plays like you know, this is is his last
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: Like the way he go out there and work, you know,
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: twenty seven for thirty two, three fifty nine, my bad
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: bake five tds and in a blowout. But I mean,
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: the man been doing this weekend and week out. I
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: can one player that stuck out to media is you know,
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: we played him and you got Bosa like dragging him
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: down and he was still able to make a play
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: and get the ball pass the first down.
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: I think that was one of the most impressive players
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen by Baker for sure.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he just has fight, like he's got that dog
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: in him. I know people say that, but yeah, I
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: mean people say that about athletes all the time, but really,
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: when you watch Baker Mayfield, especially this season. It feels
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: like he's just kind of had to glow up and
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: he's just like entering a new era of Baker and
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: it's been really really fun to watch. The Bucks also
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: defeated the Eagles and the Lions this season, so they've
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: been a force to be reckoned with. They're definitely not
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: one to sleep on. And Baker has kind of been,
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: like you said, leading the charge there. He's been pretty great.
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: Kind of he's kind of been rejuvenated in Tampa and
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: it's been really really fun to watch him. So we
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: love Baker Mayfield over here on this show. Next one
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: t Higgins and this one kind of this one sings
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: a little depot because again, okay, well you didn't need
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: to you know what, deebo I watched the game.
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: He went to Clemson, even though how can he not
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: be he went.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: He went to Clemson, So I kind of new t
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: from way back, dam but you know he yeah, he snalled.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: He's amazing.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah he did.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah he did at the.
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: Expense of my.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: At the expense of my Broncos. Yeah yeah, yeah, he
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: did what.
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: He needed to do. What does that mean built days?
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah he did do that. Thank you very much, Devo.
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: I actually wish I didn't ask you what that meant,
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: but you are absolutely right. And I think what's crazy
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: about this Bengals team all together is you've got Joe
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: Burrow MVP level season, Jamar Chase MVP level season, but
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: you really can't forget about how exceptional T Higgins has
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: also been this season. I mean, they are stacked with talent.
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: T Higgins is doing what he needs to do. Joe
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: Burrow in that game thirty nine of forty nine, four
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: hundred and twelve yards and four touchdowns beat, I learned
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: a new phrase. ATA Yeah, no it was. It was very,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: very tough. But I want to ask you because we
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: have talked about the MVP race quite a bit, and
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: it kind of feels like it's been back and forth.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: Of course, we know Josh Allen has been the favorite
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: for a minute now. That's kind of who people expect
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: to win this one. However, we also have Lamar Jackson,
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: who in almost every category statistically is outperforming Josh Allen
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: in terms of touchdown, passes, interceptions, rushing yards, all that.
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: And then you've got a running back in Saquon Barkley
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: and Joe Burrow, who you could argue if the Bengals
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: had a better record, he'd probably be maybe the favorite
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: to win MVP. I agree. So you've got Lamar Jackson,
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Saquon Barkley, Joe Burrow. That's like the four
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: I would say favorites right now to win the award.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: Who would you go with if the season ended right now?
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: Is how I look at it now? Is you know?
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: I think the MVP it is like a quarterback award
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: because I kind of look at it.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: Last year Christian McCaffrey had the crazy, one of the
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: craziest season. He won Offensive Player of the Year. You
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. So if if it's ending right now,
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: I'm going Lamar for sure, and then I'm not player
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: Officer Player of the Year, and.
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: We'll go say with my close.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you. You know what's to me though,
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: the fact that the MVP Award MVP Award has become
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: a quarterback award. I don't really love. I don't love
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: that because just because you're not a quarterback doesn't make
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: you the most valuable player on your team.
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: Matched. I would go sayque as MVP.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: But you know, okay, and that's what I was gonna say.
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: This would almost be the perfect season for the voters
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: to prove that it's not just a quarterback award by
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: giving it to a guy like Saquon, because he is
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, two thousand and five yards rushing, thirteen touchdowns.
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: He's had an exceptional season. So this, to me, would
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: be a great opportunity to give it to someone like
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: Saquon to prove that the MVP Award is not just
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: a quarterback award. But we kind of know how this
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: thing unfolds, and I do think personally I would I'd
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: be right there with you, Lamar Jackson. And if the
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: Bengals had a better record by like this much, I
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: would go ahead and say Joe Burrow, for sure, he's
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: had an outstanding season, so it's hard to argue with
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: any of that. Speaking of Saquon, let's talk about Saquon
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: a little bit. He rushed for one hundred and sixty
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: nine yards this past Sunday, moving him to the two
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: thousand yard club. This moves him to one hundred one
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: yard shy of breaking Eric Dickerson's rushing record again. A
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: phenomenal season debo. If you were on his team, would
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: you want him to go for the record this Sunday
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: against the Giants or no, and not play tough ones.
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: It's tough question.
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: No, I wouldn't blame. Only if he came to me
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: and was like, bro, I want to do this.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: This is something like you know, dreamed of thought about,
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: you know, at the end of the day, like it's
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: about being first as you can, fast as you can,
• 37:18
  Speaker 2: and you know, basic as you can come playoffs. So
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: me if only if he came to me it was like, yo,
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: like this is what I want to do this and
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: the third we'll argue to go back and forth, but
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, what you want to do going.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean we know how much you and I
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: have talked about on this show a lot about how
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: much your bodies go through in a season, and then
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: to make it to the super Bowl, it's an even
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: longer season and it can be very, very exhausting. I
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: think a large part of whether or not we see
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: Saquon play and potentially break that record is the rest
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: factor that is involved here is this Eagles team looks
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: to make a deep playoff run. The Eagles are locked
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: into the two seeds, so they won't get the first
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: round by deebo. You You've had a little bit of
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: everything in your career. You've had two long playoff runs,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: one of which was with a first round by and
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: one without a BUYE. Explain the difference and the importance
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: of a bye. What is your pre I mean, obviously
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: a bye, I'm sure most people prefer, but what what
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: is the difference to you physically and mentally? I guess,
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: like you ain't got to go out there a breather.
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: You get to catch your breath.
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: Your mental your body, like, you ain't got to go
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: out there and you know, put your life online. You
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: can autch somebody else on the Sunday and you could
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: just you know, they're a little more beat up than
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: than you is when it you know, when it starts.
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, do is there an element I've always been
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: curious about this? Is there an element of those bye
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: weeks where you feel like you have to be a
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: little bit careful not to lose too much of your momentum,
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Like if you're a team, well yeah, but okay, but
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: the game, the adrenaline, isn't that a little different than
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: a practice?
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, you got to think about this
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: like why they give you buys there in their regular season,
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: you know, kind of give your body your breather.
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: And some teams, you guys, aren't superhero.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: Some teams at the Buys not to two that horn
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: a little bit, but Niners. But not this year, but
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: years past, like that's when we play our best ball.
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: Mm hmmm mm hmmm mm hmmm, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. Well,
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: speaking of first round by, is one of the teams
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: that will get a first round by in the NFC
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: is the Lions, who you just faced, or the Vikings.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: The Vikings beat the Packers twenty seven to twenty five,
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: so this sets up the winner take all, winner take
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: all game on Sunday debot. And we know just how
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: back and forth it's been between the Lions, the Vikings
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: and even the Packers have been up there in conversation.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: But Deebo, talk about this matchup and what you think
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: we can see, well predict what we'll see against this
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: in this Vikings Lions showdown.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: Both of them are good, both of them really good.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: I know, Jefferson and Addison, you got Gibbs, Aaron Jones,
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: I ain't gonna know. I was talking about this. Who's
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: in the sona earlier at the stadium that that kid Gibbs, like,
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: he's like, you can't even explain it. It's just like
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: exciting to watch.
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: He's definitely, he's great. He's great.
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: Definitely exciting to watch.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think Lions fans were worried naturally because
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: of David Montgomery being injured, because they did have two
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: running backs that were just dominating. It's one of the
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: things that made the Lions such a threat. But Gibbs
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: is holding his own. I mean, he's doing what he
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: needs to do.
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: Get the fool speed so fast, Like it's just it's
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: just crazy to watch. Oh no, I think this would
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: be a good matchup, but I might go Vikings with
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: this one.
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: Oh Okay, do you think it's if the Lions were
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: in full health? Would you go Lions?
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: Nah?
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: I would go out or are you looking at.
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: The receivers Lions was a full head of steam?
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I think this will be a really really great,
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: u great game. Both of these teams have just been
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: exceptional all season long, very very fun to watch. This
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: will be again this is kind of like do or die,
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: not really, but in order to get that that first uh,
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: that first round by this is a this is a
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: big one, super important for both of these teams. Okay, uh.
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: The other side of the coin in this matchup is
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: that the loser will be fourteen to three unless they tie,
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: of course, and they will end up being a fourteen
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: win wild card team traveling on the road to face
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: Tampa Bay and Tampa Tampa looks scary. Tampa has found
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: their momentum at like the perfect time. I mean, they've
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: actually been pretty great all season. They've dropped a couple
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: of games that they probably could have won, but they're
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: finding their rhythm. We just talked about Baker Mayfield and
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: how exceptional he is. Could we be looking at some
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: upsets happening in the wildcard round this year?
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: You could be the fact that you know, both Lions
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: and invitings fourteen and threes crazy crazy in the winter
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: n goes to the wildco Wildcard, which you.
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: Know, Tampa is playing really good ball right now.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: Yep, yeah, it look great.
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: It's a scary playoffs.
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: You got Eagles, Eagles, Packers, Washington l A like pretty
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: good teams.
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: It's real good teams that you said.
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: Fourteen and three kind of crazy to even think that
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: a fourteen and three team could be a wildcard team. Uh,
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: that's kind of just part of the game. Do you
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: think that the NFL would ever get to the point
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: where they make changes so that a fourteen win team
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: is not going on the road or is it? Hey,
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: you got to win your division, and you know that's
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: how it works.

• 43:03
  Speaker 1: all right, you know what I mean, You know, gotta
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: keep gotta keep things competitive. Winning your division absolutely matters. Okay,
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: let's look at the current playoff bracket ahead of Week eighteen.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: We still have some matchups and some scenarios to figure
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: out here. But heading into this Sunday, are there any
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: matchups that catch your eye? And and yeah, who do
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: you do you have any teams?
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: I'm going both sides on this.
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, both sides. You could just say, like who you
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: or you could just say, hey, here's here's some sleeper teams.
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: I've gotten the NFC and sleeper teams I've gotten the AFC.
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I would say just.
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to figure fill out this bracket.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: We're gonna start with Eagles Packers.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: That's a tough one. I hate that he started with
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: the hardest one.
• 43:59
  Speaker 3: I'm going Eagles. You look at l a bro I'm
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: going I'm going Eagles with this one.
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: Okay, like it.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: Washington, Rams, I'm going to Washington. So agreed, Vikings.
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: Tampa. I'm going to Tampa.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: So I agree. I agree.
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: So Detroit would pay Tampa, right, Yeah, that's how it works.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: Detroit played Tampa, Rams would play Eagles.
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: No, you said commanders. Commanders would play Eagles.
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: No, I said the Rams would be the commanders.
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: Oh see, I disagree with you. So we disagree on
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: that one.
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, we got Eagles.
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah we do.
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: La.
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Eagles. Yeah, Tampa, Detroit, I'm gonna go Detroit. Okay,
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: Detroit Eagles. I'm going Eagles. Bill's Denver, sorry, Bills.
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: Uh, Baltimore do you hate me?
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: That's what this is.
• 45:14
  Speaker 2: Baltimore Chargers, That's fine.
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: I would I would actually pick the Bills too, So
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: I'll just.
• 45:21
  Speaker 2: I'm going Baltimore and then Houston Pittsburgh. I'm going to Houston.
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: My boys. Z's back in action. So we got Houston
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: and Kins City and Buffalo and Lamore and the Boys.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: I'm going Baltimore. Okay, I'm going Baltimore. I'm going Chiefs.
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: So Chiefs in Baltimore, I'm going Baltimore.
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: Eagles. I got the more winning, the boldest year.
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: I love it, Okay the only time. The only place
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: I disagree is I would have the Steelers beating the
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: Texans and then I would have the Steelers upsetting the Chiefs.
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: Cool.
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: That's wishful thinking mostly, but I really also just love
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin and I am hoping that the Steelers can
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: get it done. So for the most part, we agree.
• 46:20
  Speaker 4: I have.
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: I would really love to see the Eagles win it
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: all this year, for being completely honest, so I would
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: probably pick like an Eagles Ravens Super Bowl. And oh
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: that's tough. I love both of those teams, so I
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: don't really know, but we'll just to be different. I'll
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: say Eagles and you say Ravens. Oooh yeah, okay, well
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: there we go.
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: Boo.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah it's done. Now, College football Debo, you did have
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: some college football picks that we already talked about. But
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: before we get into that, did you see the backlash
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: cam Ward got over the weekend?
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: I didn't. I just read about this whole scenario.
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so Heisman finalist, potential first overall pick played in
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: the first half of the Pop Tart Bowl ooh yum,
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: and got the record for most touchdowns, but then sat
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: out in the second half. Miami ended up losing a
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: close game forty one, and people were all over him
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: for his decision. What do you think about his decision?
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: You know, on get in the midst of all this,
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: you know, massy shit whatever. But uh uh, at the
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: end of the.
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: Day, kind of put myself in a situation because I
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: set out the bowl game my college career. I set
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: out because you know, I dealt with so many injuries
• 47:42
  Speaker 2: early on this, that and the third and you know
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: I finally got to, you know, be where I wanted
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: to be, and so I was just you know, I
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: had the decision with coach Musch, Champion, my receiver, coach
• 47:51
  Speaker 2: Brian and Mclinton, and you know they kind of understood
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: like my purpose of that. But at the end of
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: the day, if I'm going out there to play, I'm
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: going out to play. I'm play the whole game. I'm
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: just not gonna you know.
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: Go out there and be like, all right, I did this,
• 48:04
  Speaker 3: I'm done so that's just me.
• 48:07
  Speaker 2: But who knows, you know, what they communicated on the end,
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: you know, we never know the backstory of you know,
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: how he went about communicating with his coaches and you know,
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: the higher up. So at the end of the day,
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: it's it's not my not my partner to speak on
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: like the decision that he made just that and the
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: third But hopefully that doesn't you know, throw a red
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: flag or anything to the you know, the league or whatnot,
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: because at the end of the day, we don't know
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: what they communicated and you know how they went about
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: that for sure, Right.
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: I think everything with stuff like that is very circumstantial
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: and it's personal to the player and to the even
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: the coaches. The coaches may be the ones that are like, hey,
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: we we let you play that first half, but we
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: really suggest you take it easier. We just like you said,
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: we never know the back end of those conversations, so
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: it's not really fair for us to cast any judgment. Okay, debo,
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: last game of the season and then I'll let you go.
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: All right. I know it's New Year's Eve. I know

• 49:34
  Speaker 1: twenty five, we're gonna get non football for a second.
