• 0:40
  Speaker 3: What's up, buddy? What's going on, boys?
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear.
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: The complaints today. And, oh, by the way, Broncos countries
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: demanding apologies from each of you three. Let's go.
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: All right, hang on, hang.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: On, hang on. You sound like you look. It's awful.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: Just shut him off. I appreciate that. You sound like
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: the abs are playing. How do you be so dominant
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: against Tampa Bay? And then what happened, Moe? What happened?
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: Hang on, hang on.
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: I think we've got to leave Mosher down. See, this
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: is what I'm in control today, and I don't know
• 1:15
  Speaker 4: what to do in this situation. So Mosher, just zip
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: it for a moment.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: Heavy lies the crown.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Ryan, don't you even do what I told you so today.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: Now I'll shut up.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Ryan, you deserve it, though. Seriously, I mentioned it in
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: the first segment of the show. Maybe it was the
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: opponent in Seattle, because you saw what Seattle's defense did
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: to Mahomes and the Chiefs last night. Were we too
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: hard on Bo Nix, or was that just rightful indignation
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: after the way he performed the last couple weeks?
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: Well, we've got an X poll to see whether or
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: not that's an apology, Vic, but it's on the up
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: and up right now. Cal, she's got it trending up. But,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: you know, I think we've been exacting. I think Broncos fans,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: and look, I'm from Minnesota originally, so I know what
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: pain feels like, but let's be clear. The Broncos have
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: earned the championship expectation in this town and in this region,
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: and We needed better from Bo, but he knew that.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: The coaching staff knew that. And I think with everything
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: going on about the play calls, everyone missing how awesome
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: this defense is, it's easy to lose track that you
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: beat the defending world champs in your building. You beat
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: the Rams, right, who they looked good too until all
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: of a sudden Arizona hit them. But then you beat
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Arizona on the road and really dominated. And one of
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: the things we've known about Bo Nix is he gets
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: better when he can run the ball. He had that
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: huge 62-yard run that really helped, but I think you
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: could also see the relief in his mind because he
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: knew he could play too. It's just it, though. Part
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: of his game, Ryan, is just he needs to use
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: his legs.
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: And it felt like once he did that, everything kind
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: of opened up and it gave him some confidence. You know,
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: that's the thing. Was this offense in the game yesterday,
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: were they amazing? No, but they don't have to be
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: because they have a good enough defense where if they're
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: just moving the chains, capitalizing on opportunities when they get them,
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: that's all they need. And that's all Bo Nix needs
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: to do.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: We also still don't know how good Bo Nix can
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: be with a second and ten. I mean, 11 penalties
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: for over 100 yards yesterday. How many times were the
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Broncos in second and 20 or third and 13? I mean,
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: it's tough to call those plays. You never want to
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: get into the spot as an offense where you're saying, look,
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: we don't have to do too much here. It's not
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: like Moe's being a husband on the weekends. Hey, I'm
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: not trying to do too much. This is what you
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: asked me to do. But it is true. There's also
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: this pressure that, hey, if we take too many risks–
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: We're going to put our defense in a bind time
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: after time, but I really think people are overlooking that
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: the offensive line has really started playing a lot better
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: from McGlinchey all the way to Bowles. And then Jonah Coleman,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: he was such a spark. He's got a little bit
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: of McCaffrey Camara kind of juice to him, baby. Yeah,
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: he does.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: And, again, Ryan, I guess what I like the best,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: and I look at the third down efficiency, not great.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: I look at the total. Seven third downs converted in
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: the last three games. It's crazy. That's tough.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: You know, and you look at the first downs, Cardinals
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: win that battle. You know, Cardinals win time of possession battle,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: all this stuff. But you had the big plays. You
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: finally had.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Some big plays.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Obviously, the Knicks run was great, but the Harvey score,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: defeating that blitz, with this, you know what I mean?
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: It's like, that's, that's big time football right there. And
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: that will hopefully maybe kickstart you and jumpstart you into
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: feeling better this coming week. And then all the way
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: down the road, how much can a game like this
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: pay off?
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Well, tremendously. And just think about one of those explosive
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: plays to the Marvin Mims catch. Did he look surprised
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: that he was open and made a tackler miss?
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: I mean, like, So not only are you having these
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: big plays, now Marvin Mims is like, I'm not going
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: to look like that again on film, right? I'm going
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: to go and finish, you know? I mean, he just
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: looked like he was like, I caught the ball. I
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: didn't go down. I'm running towards the end zone. Conversely,
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: Bo Nix is flying, putting that ball in his suitcase
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: as a carry-on and going home, you know? So not
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: only do you have that performance of whether you're on
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: the sidelines, on defense, hearing your teammates go, oh, my gosh, oh,
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: my gosh. But you've got individual players like R.J. Harvey,
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: like Marvin Mims, who now have seen themselves make the
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: big play in Sean Payton's offense. And everybody knows how
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: good it feels to see yourself excelling in the program
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: that you're at professionally. Why did it take so long? Well,
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: it's got to be the right defense, right?
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: And he unleashes a 62-yard touchdown run bow.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: But why did it take so long for the Broncos
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: to push that button?
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: That's on Bo. And let's be clear, the coaches are
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: always telling the quarterback to make the play from the pocket.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Peyton Manning could do it. Tom Brady didn't need to run,
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: except for they both did need to run in the
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: AFC championship game to stay competitive. You don't want to
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: rely on that. And for Bo Nix, he's saying, look,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: I've got the most weapons ever. I want to find
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: these solutions in this pocket. But he also has to
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: be a football player. You saw that with Joe Burrow yesterday, too.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Everybody look out for those Bengals. Oh, my God. But
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: you need to have Bo Nix make the decision that
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: he's the franchise quarterback, make that decision that he's tired
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: of whatever questions there were, whether or not he was
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: going to be the starting quarterback. And he wanted to
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: get the monkey off his back and go home, tuck
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: his daughter in after a big win in the NFL
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: and get ready for work on Monday.
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: Ryan Harris joins us thanks to Carrier Colorado. Colorado weather
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: changes fast. Make sure your home is ready with Carrier
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: and your local Carrier experts. Find the right system for
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: your home at CarrierColorado.com. Carrier, turn to the experts. So,
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: you know what, Ryan, was interesting to me is we've
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: had a lot of discussions about the running game in general.
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: Forget the Bo Nix part of this, just the running backs.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: Why can't R.G.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: Harvey get going? Why can't J.K. Dobbins get going? Jonah
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: Coleman comes off the I.R., and.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: Immediately looks like a more decisive back who finds a
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: hole and goes through it. Do you think that this
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: was a running back issue earlier in the year? Can
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: Jonah Coleman fix this? Was the offensive line better in
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: this game?
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: What was it? Jonah Coleman's the best running back of
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: the three at seeing the cutback lanes. To me, great
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: running backs watch the linebackers, not the defensive line, right?
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: Because if the linebackers are over pursuing, I'm going to
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: have to bend that back and Here's the cutback lane.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: If they're under pursuing, now I got to slice it
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: out front. He, Jonah Coleman can do both. And you know,
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: I know JK Dobbins didn't talk to the media yesterday.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: I don't think that's the right way to be a pro,
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: but that room's a little too crowded for me. And
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: to me, RJ Harvey is your workhorse back. He's shown you,
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: he can do it all. He did it last playoffs. Hello.
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: And then you got Jonah Coleman in there. That's to
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: say nothing about other running backs on the roster, but
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: I just don't think J.K. Dobbins is bringing enough juice
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: right now. Maybe he needs to play more angry, but
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: he looks like he hesitates at the line of scrimmage,
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: which is an offensive lineman's nightmare. Get to the line
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: of scrimmage. Make those backers declare, let me hit somebody.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: Jonah Coleman's the best at doing it right now, but R.J.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: Harvey's that workhorse.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: What's the difference between hesitancy and patience as a running back?
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: Le'Veon Bell was patient, so what's the difference?
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Le'Veon Bell could also split it for 65 yards
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: and a touchdown. I haven't seen it from J.K. Dobbins yet,
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: and so... And one of the things– I played with him,
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: and he was so quick to the line. You know,
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: hesitation and patience is at the line of scrimmage with
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: your hand on a lineman's back because you're waiting for
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: the linebacker to identify. You know, being hesitant is getting
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: the ball and taking a jump cut in the backfield
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: before you even get to the line of scrimmage, and
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: you're not dictating anything now as a running back. So
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: you want your back to be patient at best in
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage But you can't be making decisions
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: back there without getting in the line of scrimmage, sticking
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: your nose in it.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: Ryan, it really is a symphony, though, when you're running
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: the ball effectively. Because, again, you're talking about a running back.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Is he supposed to go through the A gap? But then,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: like you just talked about, does Coleman have the ability
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: to cut it and go through the C, right? Because
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: these guys have over-pursued and so on. But it's about
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: getting to the line of scrimmage at the right time.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: It's about the ability to recognize.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: So his brain's working.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Then he's able to cut back and go through the C,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: and that may be an extra 12 yards. It really
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: is kind of a cool thing when it works right
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: and it goes well to see how those plays really
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: do develop and how much the running.
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: Back has choices. He's got freedom. He's got free will.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: And it reminds me a lot of the way that
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: Terrell Davis and others would run the ball, right? When
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: you run the zone run game and you run it well,
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: the defense cannot be right. Either they're going to plus
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: over with their backers or bring pressure frontside, which means
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: you've got better math on the cutback, right? Not to
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: mention if you start running weak to begin with. The
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: other thing this does is Jonah Coleman's production is going
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: to make defenses play a little more vanilla because he's
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: cutting back, because he's slashing forward. Now they're going to
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: wait till he dictates what direction he's going to. That's
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: enough hesitation for alignment to slip up there, a tight
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: end to get to that second level and really widen it.
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: But these are, I mean, take note when coach Peyton,
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: after the game says we got to get him more touches.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: He doesn't say that about a lot of people. And
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: so Jonah Coleman is going to be a big piece
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: of this offense moving forward.
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: Hey, did you happen to see yesterday, we're talking about
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: bad calls in the NFL, and I'm beside myself.
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: I don't know what you're doing anymore.
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: Cam Scadaboo ran the ball for a first down, and
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: he ran over a dude, and they called him for
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: leading with the crown of his helmet. And I'm just
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: trying to, you know, as little football as I played
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: into my adult life, although I did play inter-hall full-contact
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: football in Notre Dame, and you know how violent that is, right?
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, it's very violent.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: What is a running back supposed to do with his
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: head if he's running forward?
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: You cannot do what Cam Scadaboo did. And let's be clear,
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: the NFL is also, I mean, the NFL, the referees,
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: in my conspiracy opinion, without any information, they want to
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: send Cam Scadaboo a message, hey, calm down. But you
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: cannot lower your head like that. In that play with Scadaboo,
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: it hit directly into the middle of the chest. Now,
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: two things can happen. One, you can break somebody's sternum. Two,
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: you can break your own neck. And so the NFL
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: really is trying to get running backs out from doing that.
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: You got a same leg, same shoulder, that thing, like
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: your Burnsy out there on the atlas. So what do
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: you mean? Explain that to me. So where does he
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: put his head exactly? Where is he supposed to? You
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: have to put your head parallel to the defender. So
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: I'm coming to run you over. I'm going to same shoulder,
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: same leg you, but my head, is parallel to my
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: body and parallel to you, the defender. But the minute
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: that I come at you and I lower my crown, now, too,
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: the defender has to jump up to try and make
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: a tackle. So you're getting them off their feet and
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: increasing the pressure and violence into their chest. Not a
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: good play. Throw the flag. Ryan Harris with us.
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: He joins us every single Monday to break down the
• 11:56

  Speaker 3: I won a Super Bowl. Look at that apology, Mose.
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: We'll get it.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: Listen, last thing. I'm sorry.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: All I wanted to see was what I knew was
• 12:12

• 12:14
  Speaker 1: that was good.
