  Speaker 2: Connect with Craig through the text line by texting Texas

  Speaker 2: to eight one five three zero followed by your message.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Standard message and data rates may apply here on this
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: Monday afternoon.
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: On Sports Radio AM thirteen hundred Zone Long WRNE Monday.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: But also we talk NFL. Yes, that includes the Cowboys
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: who got up, got down, had a chance, and went
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: all of a sudden done. They're three and four. Mike
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: McCarthy said, we can learn from this. Really, he said, Okay,
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: that's what he said. Do they not learn from the
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: forty seven to nine loss to Detroit or the twenty
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: eight twenty five loss to Baltimore, of the forty four
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: to nineteen loss of the Saints.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: I guess not.
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: Well, I learned enough to get within six points actually
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: ly ten Francisco in the game.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: I guess they did lead in this game because usually
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: they are by twenty when the game starts.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: They had a chance to go at fourteen to three,
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: and they couldn't catch it, and they ended up settling
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: for the field goal to make a ten to three.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: And then after that then yeah, then it was then
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: it was difficult and they got down. They were down
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: twenty seven to ten, and then you know, rallied back
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: after that.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: How about the Texans and the Colts where.
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: The uh looked like the Texans had things in hand,
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: and then the Colts came back and they just kept
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: fighting back and then pulled them with in three at
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: the end, Texans were able to hold on and get
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: the win and that one and they're sitting on top
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: of the AFC South.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: That was a weird game too. Talk about Texas Vanderbilt
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: being weird, I mean you have too just really like
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: dumb turnovers. First, you had Anthony Richardson, who we'll get
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: to it a second, had an interception inside his own
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: twenty yard line with thirty seconds to go in the
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: first half, leads to a Texans touchdown. And then you
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: have a toss play where the pitch from Stroud the
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: mixing goes behind him for a moment looked like it
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: was a fumble six. Good thing it wasn't for Texans
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: fans is they were able to stop Indianapolis not once
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: but twice. But Anthony Richardson two of fifteen in the
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: first half, just an absolutely horrid start. Did have that
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: one big passing touchdown, had a second one that was dropped,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: but two of fifteen in the first half. He has
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: the run in the fourth quarter when the Colts have
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: no timeouts left under a minute. Instead of running out
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: of bounds, he stays in bounds. That drains off a
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: lot of clock. And then he also checked himself out
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: of a play because he was too tired. Craig, this
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: is your starting quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts. I now,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: I get he played what he started eight games as
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: a quarterback before being drafted right right at eight games,
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: So it's gonna be a big learning curve. He's going
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: to be raw a long ways to go. I mean,
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: because he missed last year. You got to give him
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: this season and then probably next season before you make
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: a decision. But I mean, what a ride it's been
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: for the Colts and Anthony Richardson. I have a Colts
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: fan in my life, and he's just like, yeh, don't
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't think can depend him anymore.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: After the want Sam Ellener to play, I don't know.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: I mean, who's there. I know Sam's the third string.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Who's the second Well it's Flaco, Flaco, that's right, Yeah,
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: that's right. So yeah, you want forty five year old
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Joe flacka. But for the Texans, hey keep on winning.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: You know, Texans, Texas fans, Texas fans, you know, complain
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: about beating Vanderbilt by only by three, but hey, it's
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: another win in the wind. Call him and the same
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: thing for the Texans. You're six and two, you are
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: leading the AFC South at the moment. You keep stacking
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: those wins up, and you know, you just get better,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: You learn from it and just try and get better
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: each week. So, uh, frustrating, you know, probably was a
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: little bit too close for comfort there at the end.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: But the sad thing is, what's gonna happen with this
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: Van Dick? So you're already down Ico Collins, what's the
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: latest injury update on Stefan Dicks, who looked like took
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: a non contact knee injury.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: Colts coach Shane steike In today said he is evaluating
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: the quarterback situation, but he indicated that Richardson's decision to
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: ask out of the game for that play in the
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: third quarter will not be a factor in his decision making.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: He was ten of thirty two four hundred and seventy
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: five yards. He said, we're evaluating everything. And then he said,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: is he's still the starter? He said right now today,
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah he is. Yes, that's where that's where it is.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: And Flacco's only thirty nine, he's not forty five. He's
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: thirty nine years old. Hey, he might be batter than
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers. I'll just say that right now. Yeah, well
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: he did not look good. Jets did not look good
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: against the Patriots yesterday. I guess everybody thought that that one.
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: And and you know, of course, you know the Giants,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: they have Daniel Jones and the issues in they play
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: the Steelers tonight. But Dave Brian da Ball, the coaches,
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: he's not gonna have a quick cook with him, said
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: the reason why he had Drew Lockman, and he said
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: it was just looking for a spark, which didn't happen.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: So that's where it is.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: Is.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: The Giants will play the Steelers tonight, Monday night football game.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: No man cast, so it'll be Joe Buck and Troy Aikman.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Which the man thing is probably want to watch the
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: World Series. Yeah they don't. They want to. They want
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: to watch Steelers Giants.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: So and then, uh, this interesting thing of the.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: The Broncos beat the Panthers twenty eight to fourteen. Now
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: does that sound like somebody's trying to run up to
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: score on somebody? No? Uh.
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: The Broncos were at twenty eight seven in the fourth
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: quarter and he attempted a fake field goal on what
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: would have been a sixty yard field goal by will
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: Watch who does have the like for that, by the way,
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: And later in the quarter Courtland Sutton, the wide receiver,
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: completed a fourth down pass to Michael Burton to keep
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: a drive going.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: J C.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Horn approach Porton on Peyton on the field at the
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: game a brief, heated exchange and could be seen on
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: video telling Peyton to the Broncos were trying to run
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: up the score, saying the fourth quarter plays were disrespectful.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Horn later said it wasn't necessarily directed at him, He
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: just tended to be standing near Peyton. I just felt like, personally,
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: I ain't going to speak for everybody else. They had
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: a fake field goal and the double screen pass the
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: fourth quarter on fourth down, and they had every right
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: to do that, but I'm allowed to have.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: My opinion on that too. I felt it was disrespectful.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: So after the game was going back and forward with
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: the players and coach Payton just kind of got in
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: the middle of it.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: There's no banner back and forth between us.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Dave Canalis, the Panthers coach, said the fake field will
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: tell us their decision to make as the Broncos were
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: trying to clock out the game.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Peyton today said this was the actual quote. I know,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: I know, I know, I know, I know, I know six.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: I knows six, I knows.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: Does he know? Listen, I said it last night. We're
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: trying to finish the game the right way. We're not
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: trying to run up to score on anyone. It's a
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: Nashville Football League. I've been in.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: Games with a twenty point lead the fourth court and lost,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: So we're trying to finish play better.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: It might be a little unus.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: It's a twenty eight to seven games at that point. Listen,
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: I don't think anybody's trying to run up score on anybody.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: When you when your total score is in the twenties,
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: check back with me if it's in the forties or
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: high thirties. Come on, I don't think so either. Now,
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: if the Lions were doing fake field goals up fifty two.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: To the fourteen teams on the Titans different issue, but
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: they weren't. They were getting their touchdowns and stuff on big,
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: gigantic chunk plays and kick returns and plump returns and
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: all that stuff because the Titans were just feckless.
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: They just couldn't defend that stuff. So Scott Hansen and
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: red Zone couldn't keep up. I mean, there's one.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: Point where Lions had like like three touchdowns. It felt
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: like in a sixty seconds. Yeah, and it was Mason
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Rudolph looking like prime Brett Farv, either dropping in beautiful
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: passes to Calvin Ridley or throwing interceptions. Oh boy, Well,
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: since you did.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: Bring up Brett Brett far not Brett Farv, I was
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: gonna say Aaron Rodgers that you brought up earlier.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: Oh oh man, Yeah, uh.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: He was seventeen to twenty eight, two hundred thirty three
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: yards and two touchdowns was his deal. Garret Wilson called
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: five passes for one hundred thirteen yards. But the Patriots
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: beat the Jets. The Jets defense, which has been good
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: during most of the season, was not yesterday to lose
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: to that Patriots team that now, thanks to New England's win,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: both the Patriots and Jets are brought to two and six.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Overall two and six, and if you compared the roster's
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: side by side, Craig, I don't think anybody would go, yeah,
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: give give me the Pats, Give me the Pats, give
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: me Kayshawn Boody, Taekwon Thornton, shout out Baylor, Austin Hooper, Tomorrow,
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: Douglass over the Jets receiving core of Garrett Wilson, de Fonte, Adams,
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Tyler Conklin, Exavier Gibson. But what happens to England somehow
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: gets a win after you know, Jerrodd Mayo called the
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: team soft, and you could tell by the way the
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Patriots defense reacted after shutting down the Jets that they
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: really wanted that game. And how about Jakobe Prissett, who
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: is bench per Drake may comes in because make It's injured.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: He ends the game with a higher QBR than Rogers.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Now I know Rogers is you know, he's probably playing
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: through some injuries here. But this is the Jets team
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: that what a disaster of a year two and six.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know they're going to even come
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: close to making the playoffs with all the money they
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: have put in big, yikes big.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Okay, So let's see if we could pick out seven
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: playoff teams from each conference right now. In the AFC East,
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: Bills are six and two. Then he got Dolphins two
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: and five, Patriots two and six, Jets.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: Two and six. I only see one there, see Buffalo.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: Now, if TUA can stay healthy, can Miami kind of
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: can they get the eight nine wins?
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: Okay? So right now we'll just say Buffalo. Okay.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: North Steelers five and two, Ravens five and three, Bengals
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: three and five, Browns two and six.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: At least two right with Steelers and Ravens used to
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: go that for the moment.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: South Texans six and two, Colts four and four, Jags
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: two and six, Titans one and six.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Let's say Texans for now. We'll come back, okay.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: West Chiefs seven to zero, Broncos five and three, Chargers
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: four and three, Raiders.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Two and six.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: I think the Chiefs and Chargers out of the two.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Do you like the Chargers? I can't. I can't say Denver.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: At five and three. You can't say that, not yet
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: with BONICKX, I just I can't put. I mean, is
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: looking good? So we're at five teams.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: Well, if we add either the Chargers or Broncos, let's
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: let's leave them out. So that's five right now, So
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: two playoff spots to fill between the Broncos, Chargers, Colts, Bengals,
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: and then maybe Dolphins.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Dolphins. That's tough. Yeah, Okay, NFC.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: In the East, you got Commanders six and two, Eagles
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: five and two, then Cowboys three and four, Giants.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: Do and five. Yeah, I see Commanders, Eagles.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: Okay, North Lions six and one, Packers six and two,
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: Vikings five and two, Bears four and three.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Lions, Packers for sure.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: I'm getting a little bit worried about Minnesota since they're
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: losing their uh it's a tackle dearsol.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: Right, we'll hold four for the moment. South Falcons five
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: and three, Bucks four, four Saints two, six Panthers one,
• 11:35

• 11:43
  Speaker 3: are four and four of the Seahawks are four and four.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: Rams are three and four. I kind of like the
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Rams the most.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: I think you're only getting one out of that. I'm
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: gonna tell you right now.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: I think San Francisco, if they can get McCaffrey back,
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: they'll be okay, that's tough though, that's tough.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: That's sixteen.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: That's six so see, I would put the Vikings in
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: this promon so yeah, I think, yeah, it's Cowboys aren't
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: making it with their schedule coming up New York.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: Yes, so it's got to be between the Vikings.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and then any of three from the NFC West
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: other than the champion, right, Probably not.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: We'll be back to wrap up our number two on
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Sports twenty A. Have thirteen under the zone
