- 1:37Heavy. We'll talk a little bit about we'll talk a little bit about college
- 1:42football coaching and some other news at the end. But let's start the coaching.
- 1:46It's something horrible, yeah, but let's but let's start with the obviously,
- 1:49let's how about tim boys in Dallas count So I had to. I
- 1:56wanted to go back and book. So we both picked. We both picked
- 1:59Dallas to win the game predicted score. I think I had I was a
- 2:04little closer than you. You had like a butt kicking. You had thirty
- 2:08five to ten Dallas and I had. Now let me start. Let me
- 2:14just start by saying that I might be right about Jordan Love just you know,
- 2:21and like I said, and I don't know if I give him any
- 2:24love in the picks. I was thinking about that today. No picked him
- 2:29last, and uh but uh, that's just because the fraud annoys me.
- 2:34But anyway, so Jordan Love, this kid comes out and they've had,
- 2:38you know, the first half of the season that green Bay did not do
- 2:40as well, and then they kind of went on a streak at the end.
- 2:45I thought the big win against who did they beat on? That was
- 2:49it? The Chiefs. Hold on, I need to pull them up.
- 2:52We're looking for it. I gotta find green Bay because there was one win
- 2:57I wanted to point to in their schedule this year that I thought, Man,
- 3:00that was a hell of a win. That was the Lions. It
- 3:02was the Lions. I thought the time they beat Lions on the on twenty
- 3:06third, which I think that was uh, I know it was. It
- 3:09was in in Detroit, Okay, so Detroit, Yes, it was in
- 3:13Detroit. And but they beat the Chiefs. They had a flub against the
- 3:17Giants, and then of course the Packers beat him. That was just Martindale
- 3:23doing some good defense and it wasn't a flow. But no, I thought
- 3:28Jordan loved the rest. In the second half of the season played really well.
- 3:30The front line for green Bay was amazing, amazing. But let's get
- 3:37to the real, real meltdown of everything. Now, if you really want
- 3:40to look at the stats, and I'm a stat guy, and you know
- 3:43I'm you know I'm a stat guy. Now you pull them up. This
- 3:46this was gonna happen. No, but you pull the stats up. Take
- 3:50away the two picks, I got it. Take away take away the two
- 3:53picks. And if you didn't look at the score Dallas one, you know
- 3:57they they had they had better rushing than the rush was better or not rushing,
- 4:00I'm sorry, passing was better. Time of possession was pretty even.
- 4:05But those turnovers from Dakh were just killers. And you sat there and of
- 4:10course green Bay fans are just sick, and you look at the score.
- 4:14It was forty eight to thirty two. Was a final, I believe at
- 4:16one point it was forty one sixteen. Yeah, it was. Let's go
- 4:23see, I think it was forty one sixteen. It shows you, so
- 4:27I guess down to forty one sixteen right before well to the fourth it was
- 4:30forty one sixteen. Yeah, yeah, into the four and they may sixteen.
- 4:34They outscored Green Bay by nine points in this and was it it was
- 4:43nine. Yeah, they outscored by nine points in the fourth quarter. So
- 4:47to make it look somewhat respectable, I was thinking so, but you know,
- 4:51but look at the yards. Dallas had more yards, more first down,
- 4:56the turnovers huge, and I wasn't those wasn't one of those runback.
- 5:02I don't know if they scored. Yeah, interception that was the long one,
- 5:06yes, and that was one of them. That was just bad.
- 5:10Bad in fact, that Dallas deball or who's the one kid that came in
- 5:15with had an interception like every game, Oh, Bland, bland, nothing.
- 5:20Well, okay, so we'll start. We can start with the defense.
- 5:25I mean, it was twenty seven nothing before they even scored. And
- 5:28I thought, you know at one point that Mike and Parsons was in coverage.
- 5:31I just don't understand. Yeah, the touchdown with a Dallas got their
- 5:34touchdown with zero Timelin. Yeah, it was at the very end of the
- 5:36end of the second half or first half, and it was a huge It
- 5:41was a huge there because it was twenty seven to seventeen. Dallas gets the
- 5:45ball back first, they can't even go down to score. They do get
- 5:46a field goal out of it, but that makes it twenty seven ten.
- 5:49Twenty seven to fourteen would have been a lot better. Oh, looking there,
- 5:55but the defense just kept giving up. I mean you look at that.
- 5:58Yeah, you look Sean, three plays, six plays, five plays,
- 6:01you know there's a three plays there. Oh yeah, they're basically yeah,
- 6:05they're they were giving up a huge heat. So what happens when?
- 6:11And everyone's kind of questioning Quinn, Well, hell, in the beginning they
- 6:15were giving up big runs. Well Quinn, Quinn had his worst game I've
- 6:19seen him at Dallas calling a game. I mean, I just thought it
- 6:23was It was horrible because you turn around and you look at them and a
- 6:27lot of zone. They left the zone open. There was no pressure on
- 6:30the court on Love. Hey Love, essentially, guys is a rookie season.
- 6:34Why did Dan change? I don't know, I don't know, I
- 6:39don't know. It just seemed odd. Yeah, I mean, we you
- 6:41know, even the commentators. And I was talking to a friend last night
- 6:44that was talking about He said, what the hell was Micah Parson's doing in
- 6:46coverage? I said, well, we thought about it, commentators thought about
- 6:50it. It's like you got to put the pressure on Love. He is
- 6:55a young quarterback. Generally they had no pressure. I thought the key to
- 6:59the game was Love making no mistakes. He played very good, I mean
- 7:02very good ball through the deep, ball really well, didn't make mistakes.
- 7:06The offensive line, even when Quinn in the second half, even after starting
- 7:12printed pressure. I thought the offensive line was very underrated in that game,
- 7:15is what they can do. And then of course you've got the defense.
- 7:18But you know, Dak, you throw the ball sixty times and you've you've
- 7:21got four hundred and three yards, and that's great. It's an average is
- 7:25six point seven. But you know, Tony Poller go back down to the
- 7:29receiving Sean, I think there was quite a few different receivers that caught balls.
- 7:33Yeah, it was they both spread it around. Yeah, and so
- 7:35Ferguson. I mean, CD finally had some catches. But I didn't break
- 7:40that down. I should have broke that down to the last fourth quarter because
- 7:44ceedee lamb looked odd. They were just not meshing well. I thought Ferguson
- 7:47played a really good game. I've never really thought he's a good tight end,
- 7:51but I thought he showed him. He came. He did really,
- 7:55he did really well there and he had to do it. And then and
- 8:00then they tried to do the run. That was one of the things I
- 8:01was watching is they would run a bunch of bunch formations and they just was
- 8:07so uh, what is the word when you just keep doing shit? Stubborn
- 8:11about doing getting the run? You know, they wanted to have run the
- 8:16ball Dallas did and Green Bay was not giving that. So they did a
- 8:20lot of bunch formations early in the game and they just run it and then
- 8:24it was it was a stop. It was lost. What was a run
- 8:26per average? Sean up there? Just hit me up a little bit right
- 8:30above that because the run because you know, you've got a nine. Like
- 8:33I said, passing was great. You had forty one receptions. What was
- 8:37the run average was a little little less than five, little less than five.
- 8:41Yeah, they're both running a little less than five yards now. Dak
- 8:43had he did have one or two good runs, but then you know,
- 8:50Aaron Jones. They kept feeding him the ball, and everyone said the way
- 8:52to beat Dallas is run the ball. Of course they got the turnovers.
- 8:54But Love, I mean, you've got to give this guy credit. No
- 8:58one has given him credit this year. And I know, and Green Bay
- 9:03has continued to look much better as the season went on. I mean they
- 9:07did. They had a couple of odd losses. They lost to the Giants,
- 9:11the Buccaneers beat them, and they barely beat the Bears. Los.
- 9:16No that, but every time you lose to the Buccaneers it's an odd loss.
- 9:20Whatever, So I think you know what happened. I think that Love
- 9:24is very underrated. Now let's look at it. Now, do they do?
- 9:28They? Do they? What do you think your chances? Give me
- 9:31your give me your chances on them beating forty nine ers or do they even
- 9:35have a shot? No shot, no shot, no shot, no shot
- 9:39at all. Shot that defense is gonna come out. I don't they have
- 9:45not played this year? They is what they did? They? I don't
- 9:50think they did no, No, because it looks like they played the They
- 9:54played the NFC South and looks like they played the AFC was random AC North,
- 10:03all right, So they didn't. But point spread on that one is
- 10:09forty nine ers favored by nine at home. It's weird that it's not a
- 10:13tenor they've been they've been uh, there's there's spreads have been ten and fifteen,
- 10:22fourteen, twelve, they've they've had double digits for quite a while.
- 10:24I think that the defense can give the defense is going to come back healthy.
- 10:28Well if they give it. Well to thinking about Green Bay's defense,
- 10:31Let's get in the face of rock perty see what he can do in his
- 10:33playoff party? Well and so how how is playoff pretty done? What he
- 10:37did last year? He took uh, he took a nine ers to the
- 10:41championships. They won two games and they lost the third one because I don't
- 10:45think he got knocked out. He got Aaron Rodgers, that's right. He
- 10:48was hurt, that's right, and he had to come in and play with
- 10:52with no throwing arm. That's right there. Yeah, I remember that,
- 10:54And you kept making it like the dude is heard and he's still in playing
- 11:01Allegedly that was me. I don't really think. I don't that was you
- 11:05dog cous party all the time. What's the special that's well? Number seven
- 11:11going and winning two playoffs, So give me, give me one more playoff
- 11:15games, and as we're now, they'd be tied if he won to last
- 11:20year Bakers won too, only won won one with Cleveland. They well,
- 11:24yes, then they then he got hurt and they you don't systematically cut him
- 11:28and went your dog sh you're gonna lead into that one? Is that where
- 11:31we're going? When I went to the Tampa, yeah, I want to
- 11:35do the Tampa. Yeah, this guy thought we should save the best for
- 11:37last. So don't you think maybe just leave that Tampa one for last.
- 11:41The Chiefs are over there now, just let's let's move on. No,
- 11:45the best game that wasn't the best game. I thought the best game was
- 11:48the Rant last. Well, then we could segue into Tampa because they played
- 11:54each other all r. Let's move on. Let's go to the a f
- 11:56CFC. Yeah, let's talk about probably the most boring game. Well,
- 12:01that was a boring one too. I thought that. I thought both AFC.
- 12:05I thought the Chiefs. Let's we'll talk about Chiefs and Dolphins. I
- 12:07don't We joked that everyone should bet the farm on the Chiefs to win.
- 12:13It was going to be cold temperatures in Kansas City. And it did not
- 12:18surprise. So what was are you gonna pull that up? I need Chiefs.
- 12:24We're talking about che your boy to attager talloua now shining again. It
- 12:35was not good. He did not have a good game. No, well,
- 12:39just like whenever they played the Bills in the last game, just didn't
- 12:41he shining, just did not have it shining. Josh Allen, Why Josh
- 12:46Yellen? Ship? But guess who's meeting. We'll talk I agree, Oh
- 12:50yeah, we're definitely gonna talk about well. I mean, if you remember,
- 12:52I picked the Bills as my super Bowl favorite when they were like the
- 12:56game you know, so let's everybody, let's when they were on there at
- 13:01their worst. I picked him when they were the best, to be the
- 13:07best, all right, to beat the best. I just I don't know
- 13:13the Chiefs game. It was just boring. I never felt you never just
- 13:18felt like, even at halftime it was sixteen to seven, you never felt
- 13:20like the Dolphins were gonna do anything. I mean just nothing. They couldn't
- 13:24run the ball, they couldn't pass the ball. He had the one long
- 13:31one. I mean there was a long one he had in there, and
- 13:33there was plays in there. But you know, what I thought. That's
- 13:37why you don't give kids lighters in the house. I thought that. I
- 13:39thought the rookie Rice for the wide receiver for Kansas City has really turned it
- 13:43on. Finally they have found something. He had Hell, he had hell
- 13:46of a number. No, I think someone else did. I almost picked
- 13:50him. Now I had the Watson guy and he had two catches for twenty
- 13:54yards. But that was that was everyone for that. But no, I
- 13:58thought Patrick, he didn't have a great game. The weather, you know,
- 14:01twenty three or forty he did, how cold it was? What a
- 14:05hit he took? Hey, And but they won the game. And like
- 14:09I said, it was the best matchup that they could have got. Now
- 14:11they turn around anything else in that game. I mean this that was I
- 14:16didn't I I don't think anybody if anybody picked the Dolphins, and I think
- 14:20the spread was low to if anybody picked the Dollmins Dolphins, this is dumb
- 14:22bad. It was going in there. That was and they didn't have a
- 14:26good record. Show Josh McDaniels offensive Mike mcgameons not even Josh speed. His
- 14:35whole offense is set on speed. Well, what happens when it's cold?
- 14:39You ain't that fast. We knew. We all knew it. I mean
- 14:43there was no doubt. I mean, nobody picked. Nobody in our picks
- 14:46picked the Dolphins. I think someone tried to pick them to cover, but
- 14:50I think the cover, yeah, the cover, it wasn't even that big.
- 14:52I mean, sono that the smart picks went on that. So,
- 14:56uh, Kansas City. Now they go and play, which I thought was
- 15:00one of the better games late it turned into it. But I never thought
- 15:03the Bills even had as we segue into the Bills game, oh yeah,
- 15:09I just don't. I thought the turnover. This is the game that I
- 15:13missed. I slept through this game. Josh Allen, you know Mason Rudolph
- 15:20played okay, he just you could just tell the difference. I mean,
- 15:22you got Josh Allen, you got Mason Rudolph. It just wasn't gonna be
- 15:26Why they had Rudolf continuously throwing when you knew that it was that cold and
- 15:31it was going to be a run heavy game. Yeah, I mean,
- 15:33and they focused on it, you know, but they only averaged four point
- 15:35six yards of carry Pittsburgh did. Warren had thirty eight yards. Nause She
- 15:41had thirty seven. You know, Pittsburgh had been winning the last few games
- 15:45with the run game, and they couldn't do it. And hey, the
- 15:46run game was what was opening up. Mason Rudolf give credit, give credit
- 15:50to his own Buffalo's defense on that. I thought they looked very sound.
- 15:54I thought the one pick, I think it was a pick in the end
- 15:56zone for the pick, yeah, well, yes, yes, that was
- 16:04God, that was a bad turnover. How many turnovers did they have total?
- 16:08I know, I know, I know, I know Rudolph play or
- 16:11threw that one pick and seeing that could have turned that that's seven points into
- 16:15nothing. Yeah, yeah, you lost a turnover battle, yes, and
- 16:21and and the yards were pretty the yards are pretty close. I'm in possessions.
- 16:25Yeah, it was fairly close, you know, thirty three to twenty
- 16:26six minutes. But but yeah, the turnovers, and I just thought that
- 16:32I thought Josh Allen with his legs, made big plays, and I thought
- 16:33that Mason Rudolph just never made plays big enough. Josh Allen did what Josh
- 16:38Allen had been doing in the last few games of the season, just taking
- 16:42off and running being selfish. Well, and and he needed to, and
- 16:48maybe that's what they kind of went back to, But honestly, I don't
- 16:51necessarily think Now. Now, the big thing about Josh Allens is zero interceptions.
- 16:56Zero interception. That's your favorite you go into that. It's exactactly what
- 17:00I talk about with I talk about Baker Mayfield, and when I talk about
- 17:04Josh Allen. The key to you continuing to move your team forward is avoid
- 17:10the costume mistakes. And he did. Josh did in this game thirty one
- 17:14seventeen Final. They play the Bills. I'm sorry, they played the Chiefs.
- 17:17Three Bills get the home game though, which is huge. You know
- 17:19that was a huge win. Didn't really sound like Buffalo. Yeah, but
- 17:25beating that Miami, that Miami win at the end of the game. Yeah,
- 17:30that's exactly right. And then they got the home game. So,
- 17:33uh, spread on that game is two and a half. Buffalo is actually
- 17:37favored in the and so both cold teams. I haven't decided who. I'm
- 17:42well, we'll pick at the end of the well to take Buffalo, but
- 17:45but maybe two. We'll do our we'll do our scores at the end when
- 17:49we after we talk about the coaching we'll put. So I haven't seen,
- 17:53I haven't seen. I saw three and a half. I'm sorry two and
- 17:56a half for that. But the key is is it's going to be the
- 18:00quarterback play. Chiefs and Bills both don't have a great running game, but
- 18:06they have been improving at times. And hey, and speaking of the Chiefs,
- 18:10going back to the Chiefs a little bit, how about Steve Spagnoia,
- 18:11defensive coordinator for the Chiefs. They're the only team that I think in the
- 18:17NFL, if I read this right, and I could be mistaken, I
- 18:18needed I should have went back and checked. It was the only team that
- 18:19didn't give up a game of thirty points to an opponent all year long.
- 18:25They were the only ones that held Yeah, that was Kansas City. Now
- 18:27saying that is the defense, I mean, they've been great. They've always
- 18:32been underrated because it's all been about it's all been about you know, Mahomes,
- 18:37It's been about Kelsey Tyreek. Tyreek when he was there, was all
- 18:41about that. So you know, so you don't what was the highest point
- 18:45total they give up, Sean, I'm seeing the team to the Packers.
- 18:48Yeah, and that's the game they lost twenty to the Vikings and twenty to
- 18:55the Jets. Yeah. Yeah, so that's and then the Lions on the
- 18:59Lions first game, the first game, first they give up twenty four to
- 19:02the Broncos. I'm looking at this differently. I'm looking at this off they
- 19:07give up twenty four to the Broncos. Oh okay, okay, gotcha.
- 19:11Yeah, that was the horrible game. That was the game you said,
- 19:12and watched them. Oh, ship, the Broncos are back. And then
- 19:15then and then they and then and then they call apart who said the Broncos
- 19:21are bad. We got idiots, and they talked about it. Now,
- 19:23the Broncos were getting some love. If you remember, towards the end of
- 19:26the season they had one. They'd put together three or four wins and got
- 19:30to almost five hundred, and we're like, then they got mad at Russell
- 19:33Wilson because Russell wouldn't take out his damn injury clause and they were like,
- 19:37oh, well, you're gonna sit on the bench because we can't afford to
- 19:40pay you that extra millions of dollars if you're injured. All right, Chiefs
- 19:44and Bills, Uh, what is the schedule on that? Sean? Are
- 19:45they? Are they the thirst to see Saturday game? Go? Let me
- 19:51go to see what the game? I forgot. Okay, there we go.
- 19:57H see text and Ravens are gonna have these Saturday La Chiefs Buster Early
- 20:07Chiefs and Bills are going to be the later game game. Yeah, boy,
- 20:12Sunday Sunday Sunday's gotten the much better games. To be honest, I
- 20:15think, I mean they just do. I mean it's gonna be more entertaining,
- 20:18more exciting. You're not happen for this Ravens Texans game. I am
- 20:22because I think that you know, we'll talk. We talked that rookie of
- 20:26the years and ship. We'll get to him here in a minute. Yeah,
- 20:29so I think that his name and his hype coming. Let's move,
- 20:33Let's move's go, Let's go ahead and move on to the Texans. We'll
- 20:36talk about them. We'll give our predictions at the end of the pod uh
- 20:40and and reasons why. But you look at the Texans. I believe I
- 20:42was the only one that picked them. Maybe is that right? Correct?
- 20:45Picked up straight up? Practically there was not gonna be any spread. I
- 20:51think it was like a two, wasn't it. It was low two or
- 20:53three? The collapse of Joe Flacco. How does this team do this?
- 21:00How do you come in burning on all cylinders and and Jamaico ryans. Okay,
- 21:08so figures you out two pick sixes. Obviously, yes, two pick
- 21:11sixes. Now take those away and I know you can't and because that changes
- 21:15the whole dynamic. But you know, thirty four to forty six hundred yards
- 21:18one touchdown wasn't bad. You look at his average only six yards. Look
- 21:22at the run game Cleveland had. Let's talk about his yack. Well,
- 21:26look at the run game that Cleveland had though. I mean they were averaging
- 21:29not even three yards of carry between Hunt and Ford and it just went to
- 21:33shit. So they went to a total passing No, they went to a
- 21:36total passing game. And you know, even Houston didn't really have a big
- 21:40running game. But the deal was is the defense was huge in picking up
- 21:45the turn. The game was so bad Davis Mills got to play. Yeah,
- 21:48it's exactly right, but you know it was it was only it was
- 21:52twenty four to fourteen and a half. It's very close. And that's what
- 21:56you could called me and I was like, no, it's fourteen to ten.
- 22:00You had had Cleveland up. Still, that's what the last time you
- 22:03saw last we looked at it, Cleveland or spad Maybe it was it was
- 22:07fourteen to ten. Yes, that's what was fourteen to ten and I started,
- 22:11I was doing some stuff. Oh that was the day that I No,
- 22:14that wasn't Was it a Thursday game, No, that was Saturday,
- 22:18Saturday, Okay, So I was trying to contemplate if I was going to
- 22:22go to work. So I'd missed like literally the beginning of that to that
- 22:29halftime point where you were like, no, it's twenty four to fourteen and
- 22:30I was like, eh, no, dude, it was just fourteen to
- 22:33ten. And the collapse from there was epic. Uh. No more skiling
- 22:40for Cleveland and what is that? Twenty one straight points for Houston in the
- 22:47second hand c J balling out, I scored them twenty one and nothing,
- 22:51And just like you'd mentioned before, Davis Mills got to play. We're looking
- 22:53so they had one run? Yeah, well and no, And it goes
- 22:57back to see what saying, this is an off Yes, that's got talent.
- 23:03What I've been talking about is you look at the team. They've had
- 23:04a good building for the last three years and picks, and what they were
- 23:08missing the whole time was the right coach and right right quarterback and strouds Shroud
- 23:15Sir Stroud has impressed me. I think you especially were anti Ohio State quarterback.
- 23:22And I don't know if I'm gonna have to go back and see what
- 23:23I give him on my predictions about that. But but I don't but I
- 23:27don't think but I don't think that. But I don't think that. But
- 23:36I don't think that. But I think the key is the mistakes. And
- 23:38you look at the quarterback play that we've talked about in all these games,
- 23:41the ones that we have won, is you look at the big fat zeros
- 23:45and interceptions, and that makes a huge difference in the playoffs. You just
- 23:48can't make mistakes. It's just and and they'll tell you that over and over
- 23:52turnovers will cost you. Get it, Yes, And and the quarterback,
- 23:56the quarterback play that we're winning was not making those bad turn overs. And
- 24:00and we'll talk about that when we've we've talked about when we'll talk about Tampa's
- 24:03game here in a minute, and what we talked about with the doll or
- 24:07the bills, the bills about the turnovers. All right, So so you've
- 24:11got now you've got Houston and at Baltimore. That's gonna be cold weather game.
- 24:15It's gonna be that the you don't have the covered of energy stated early
- 24:19game on Saturday spread. What do you think did you look already? Oh
- 24:25those purple nine nine points? Spread? Yes, yes, yeah, Vegas
- 24:32Insider our Vegas incenter won't pass, Yes, paus Vegas Insider, Vegas Insider
- 24:38nine points right now. So, I mean, that's gonna be a tough
- 24:41pick. We'll talk about that and we'll give our keys the game as we
- 24:45as we close up, we want to kind of preview all the other games.
- 24:48But I think that game is gonna be a little closer than what people
- 24:52might think. This this ravens Houston. I think a lot of people are
- 24:55gonna put Houston or they're gonna take Houston and take them for granted. I
- 24:59don't think Baltimore it's going to do that. Baltimore obviously one of the best
- 25:02defenses in the league, is going to be key in that. And then
- 25:04you got to see what Lamar does as far as how he plays. All
- 25:07right, Oh yeah, which Lamar are we gonna get? That's exactly what
- 25:11Lamar is gonna come out playoff? Lamar, when's the last time he was
- 25:18in the playoffs. One two years ago. Three he was in there last
- 25:22year. Oh that's right, that's right, because he was injured. All
- 25:29Right's move on to Lions Live. The best game, the best game of
- 25:34the most entertaining game for me, not the best game I wanted, my
- 25:38favorite Detroit and Detroit LA was the best. It was the game right down
- 25:45to the end. Uh I thought. I thought l A had this game
- 25:48right at the end and then you know, had to had to put it
- 25:53away. Two things that I took yeah, two things I took away from
- 25:56that game is one is both quarterbacks played really well, concerned and I thought
- 26:02they played well. I thought Stafford had to throw the ball a little bit
- 26:04in the second half. They kind of had to to, you know.
- 26:07It seemed like they were trying to catch up a little bit, you know,
- 26:10because it was always close, you know, golf, and then they
- 26:12tried to run the ball a little bit. You know, Detroit did,
- 26:17but I thought golf. He didn't make mistakes mistakes, only threw one touchdown,
- 26:21but there was no mistakes that made. But the thing that won this
- 26:23game is the thing that I have talked about being their liability going into the
- 26:29playoffs with their defense and the defense. Yes, I have always thought that
- 26:33Detroit's defense was going to be the liability of them going to the Super Bowl,
- 26:37and they showed up huge. The thing with the Rams is they could
- 26:41not score once they got in the red zone. It was like shut down
- 26:45city. And there were so many times when they needed big plays that defense
- 26:49of Detroit shut them down. And I thought it was one of the most
- 26:52impressive defenses that Aaron Glynn called for that game. And I thought that they
- 26:59were always in the face of Stafford. Now I'm not saying the front line
- 27:02is bad, but the linebackers, the secondary. It was always my question
- 27:04about that about this game was it featured four great rookies. Kyrine Williams running
- 27:14back for l A. H. Pookaua who broke records, Sam Laporter who
- 27:19broke both catches, and jamieer Gibbs Kenny later called generational. He will be
- 27:32four catches forty three yards. And this is where this is where I want
- 27:36to talk about the offensive rookie of the year. So Laporta broke records but
- 27:40wasn't a big name coming in. Pookakua broke records but was not a huge
- 27:45name coming in Kyrine he could have broke records. Uh, I don't know
- 27:51Stroud he came on later in the season. Correct, Stroud's going to be
- 27:55your winner because of the name. Because of the name, it's the hush
- 28:00and I think it's the position more than the name. Is why he's gonna
- 28:02get these guys broke records. And of course Strouds did set what two three
- 28:07records? I don't know what records he said, but has had the most
- 28:08something he had the most catches and receiving yards for rookie. Yeah, yeah,
- 28:12uh now he broke the records, but it's one of those deal.
- 28:15Now is going to be right there. I think that he kind of come
- 28:19on though when Cup was kind of down and is he the new Cup?
- 28:23I mean, you know you watch that game. Is Stafford trying to force
- 28:27it to come? They did? That's exactly right. And I thought Nikus
- 28:32just setting out there and you're talking about you. I'd love to see the
- 28:36yak for him. What he gives Stafford some numbers because that guy gets it
- 28:40and he's like boom, take off. Yes, yes, I mean I
- 28:44mean it's gotta be huge. Exactly No, But I but I think Stroud's
- 28:49gonna win it simply for the position. But I think I think it's going
- 28:55to be close. But also you got to think about Houston. Last year,
- 28:57they were what three and thirteen and one? I think they was three
- 29:00thirteen. I know they had to die, so I think it was three
- 29:03thirteen and weren't any better last season all the injuries though. See Stafford didn't
- 29:07play much last year. You got to remember he played two three games.
- 29:08Yeah, so you got to remember that. So I think Baker played some
- 29:12last year. Wasn't he hit the Rams last year? Yeah? So he
- 29:15came in and finished out the season. Yes, so he h had forty
- 29:18eight hours, gets thrown in and beats the Broncos. Yeah it was some
- 29:21Monday night game, I think it was. Yeah. So no, so
- 29:23they didn't play. So I think that's what's gonna that they didn't really focus
- 29:27on them improving as much as the Houston Texans is their improvement. I'm just
- 29:33I'm saying that we need to look at other things other than the name and
- 29:36the and the media height. Oh, statistically is what you're saying. Are
- 29:40you talking about stat Sean, Because statistically, I'm is the winner to talk
- 29:45about them stats talking about on field performance. Stats at all said and done,
- 29:51on field performance. I know these stats you speak of. I think,
- 29:55no, I is boring. No, it is boring. Number of
- 29:56people work. I think it's the position A number, nude that's going to
- 30:02be the winner. That's what you love, that's what you love. You
- 30:03get and you start making your order like, oh, numbers, how many
- 30:07of these numbers. Oh, I'm gonna go to the store and I'm gonna
- 30:10punch in numbers. I love numbers. Well, and that's what I mean.
- 30:12And sometimes your dirty talk is sometimes stats will show you a broad pick.
- 30:18It's like Bob Ross at far so so all right, So I mean
- 30:26good job. I mean first home win. We were all hoping that,
- 30:30we were all hoping that it was going to be thirty forty years. What
- 30:33was the first home Yeah, it's huge, ninety one. I think it
- 30:37was worse than that. I think I know that is the last time Lions
- 30:44won a game. Texting wasn't even invented. That's that's exactly right that.
- 30:48I'm like, man, there's some guy that had the tickets for sixty six
- 30:52years. He was he was a celebrity. Shot in the game. Another
- 30:56thing if you watch that game, especially in the first half, because Detroit
- 31:00was on fire. You know, Detroit and and and LA scored on their
- 31:03first two possessions. They scored points, and I thought, you know,
- 31:07uh, they had won. Or we'll talk about that. Do you think
- 31:10this, Do you think there were adjustments in the second half, or do
- 31:12you think it was desperation? No, I just I thought that I thought
- 31:15that golf looked a little more. They did play a little more conservative that
- 31:21second half. Yeah, but I thought the defense just kept ramping it up
- 31:23and the crowd was in it, and I thought that was huge. And
- 31:27I mean, and that's the and segueing in the next game, they're gonna
- 31:32have another home game. I mean, that's gonna be two in a row
- 31:33home games at Ford Field. And if you thought it was rock and then
- 31:37I think when Tampa comes in to Detroit next week on SAT. Sunday,
- 31:41it's gonna be I mean, it's gonna be louder than what you could ever
- 31:44imagine. Yeah, because think about it, this is an old NFC central.
- 31:49Well, and look at another thing about the crowd. They were that
- 31:53Stafford though if you watched him, there was multiple times that timeouts were ready
- 31:56to be called because of the crowd noise. You're gonna probably see that if
- 32:01I was Tampa this week before we segue into their game. Is you got
- 32:05to be playing a lot of loud music or whatever in your practice facility that
- 32:07you're doing because you want to have that, You're gonna have to do a
- 32:10lot of plays off of snap counts and you call it. You know,
- 32:15aren't changing places and stuff. That's gonna be that's gonna be the most Yeah,
- 32:20it's gonna be the most interesting things your entire offense Just put you know,
- 32:24just just put ship over their ears, definitely, because you're going up
- 32:28motion. Now what I have thought is been the weakest for Tampa as we
- 32:32move to the Tampa game, but well that is the best game. Back
- 32:37up to the to the lines. I'm going round seven, catch Hunter ten
- 32:44yards. That guy, I mean, I'm on rock right right, Yeah,
- 32:52you look like a That guy is just so underrated and and and some
- 32:58people that pick them on their fantasy team. Wah, dude, Round dude
- 33:06just made me a bunch of points all year long. I mean, I
- 33:08mean he was up there statistically with some of the best of all the best
- 33:13you know, and he just kept balling out and I thought that. But
- 33:15then but you're back. But Gibbs, Jamison, Williams, Reynolds, I
- 33:20thought they made critical catches. I think golf has a really and obviously the
- 33:23Porta obviously has a very underrated receiving corps. Well, I would say a
- 33:30month, you know a mon is receiver. One. Yes, yes,
- 33:35your tight end is going to be a receiver. That's correct. Yeah.
- 33:37The problem with Williams and Reynolds where they dropped balls all season. Reynolds wasn't
- 33:43as bad. Jamison's just kind of coming. You know, I had n't
- 33:46my fantasy rated. I say, needs to stop worrying about getting hit and
- 33:52just catch the goddamn well not him. I just been overrated as a I
- 33:55mean underrated as a whole. As a whole, I did it, you
- 33:58know, And we need to be generation One of your generational players have failed
- 34:06this season. Gibbs. No, no, no, you didn't say that
- 34:08until halfway through the season. I'm talking about why would would I have drafted
- 34:13him at the drafted me? Because we stole your players Flowers, you stole
- 34:17I said, was generational? Who else did I say? Uh? You
- 34:21said in the draft. DA, I do think he's going to be general.
- 34:24I do, and uh, let's see Jaalen Carner. He did,
- 34:29Okay, I believe you might have thrown Addison in there that I'd have to
- 34:34go back, and he did pretty good too. I thought I was more
- 34:36impressed with I didn't say that I was more impressed with Addison in the season.
- 34:39Well, no, but you but you got to take away that Jefferson
- 34:43got hurt, so he got a lot more looks Adison did. And let's
- 34:47take away the quarterback. You put a throwing quarterback in in where Lamar Jackson
- 34:52Zay Flowers is probably generational. No, I think he threw more this year
- 34:57than he ran attempts in most of the other can can change that. He
- 35:00did throw more at Baltimore, Lamar was throwing the ball more. Well,
- 35:06somebody had Zay on their fantasy team and he was hit or missing points.
- 35:09Yeah, I think the rookie. I just think it was rookie, and
- 35:12I think that magic saying, like you said, Gibbs, you know they
- 35:19got a free agent that, but you've got a free agent. They saw
- 35:22a huge free agent. We talked about that all year. Take the rookie
- 35:25Montgomery got most of the most of the carries all games, I mean.
- 35:30And congratulations of Laporter for being able to come back for that playoff game because
- 35:35he wasn't for extended knee. I thinks what it was so it didn't tear
- 35:37anything, hyper simity, he didn't. I didn't watch him that close because
- 35:42I couldn't see it all, but he might have been slowed down some.
- 35:44But I just I thought that Saint Brown the first half was huge about the
- 35:49catches they made and they were proving a point and they got the momentum behind
- 35:52their saw on their side, I mean they were behind the side or behind
- 35:57me, and I thought that was huge. But I but, like I
- 35:59said, the defense give them the game ball overall, well, rug defense
- 36:04is the game ball because they both locked down at the right time. Let
- 36:07me do the first half was we thought it was going to be a forty
- 36:12point ball game. We did. We did thinking about eighty points scored.
- 36:15Well, and that's no joke because we talked about betting the over it was
- 36:19like fifty three or fifty four. We're like, oh shit, look at
- 36:21the halftime score. We're already in the forties, you know, And then
- 36:23after that shut it down. It's funny Vegas knows those things. But the
- 36:28under, I think that it was the under because I think it was fifty
- 36:30two to fifty three. But anyway, so as we move, you're good.
- 36:36As we move on to the the game. The last game? Is
- 36:42that the last game you ever talked about? Tampa? God, I wanted
- 36:49to talk about as you as you're working on that. You had twenty four.
- 36:52You had twenty four to twenty for the Detroit so you were pretty close,
- 36:57actually only three points off. I had it eight. Yeah, yeah,
- 37:02you went, I went. You thought it was gonna go close.
- 37:05Still, we both had about the same closeness, but it was close.
- 37:09Going back, we didn't talk about the Browns in Texas. We both I
- 37:12had the Texans by three, You had the Browns by four. Both had
- 37:17Kansas City, and both had Buffalo, So we talked about that. I
- 37:22knew it was gonna happen. What's happened? Uh? Jason Kelsey retiring?
- 37:28Yes, Yes, it was pretty It was pretty obvious and a nice segue
- 37:32into the game because we all know that Philly uh offense couldn't get started.
- 37:37Defense was Patricia esque. Are we gonna blame. That is that where we're
- 37:45going with the defense, with the defensive collapse when they've won one game in
- 37:49the last seven. No, it is I know. And even Dampa Bay
- 37:52they had they had so many opportunities to win. And also I meant to
- 37:57send you a text that said, uh Jalen Hurds dislocated finger, still greater
- 38:01than Marcus Mariota. Oh yeah. Well, and the thing about that game,
- 38:07So I picked the Eagles and the only reason I picked him, and
- 38:10I told you I'm gonna, I'm gonna. I took Tempa because of what
- 38:14the spread was. I didn't like the spread. He took the Eagles.
- 38:16I took the Eagles in there, but I took this. Yeah the spread,
- 38:20yes, what was it six or so? Yeah, it was for
- 38:22four and a half or something. So something I didn't like, and I
- 38:25was like, I'm gonna take this. I think. So watching that game,
- 38:28and I watched it all obviously you look at we'll talk about, Oh,
- 38:34I want to see the Nielsen ratings just for Oklahoma alone, everyone in
- 38:37there else watching that game. Because it was like, I guess what,
- 38:43Mary was there, Switzer Bosworth was there. Now, snaky snaky Riley shows
- 38:51up in Philly, can't tact I love that one. That was one of
- 38:52the best ones. It's like he shows up me all of a sudden,
- 38:55can't tackle. Well, let's let's talk about let's talk about the Eagles.
- 39:00So you you kind of highlighted that that the mask putrition change. You're gonna
- 39:06do a little blame. Now, they've had a lot of injuries in the
- 39:07in the secondary. Obviously Tampa knew about that. They threw the ball thirty
- 39:12six times. But so we talk about Hurts and you know, Hurts didn't
- 39:15have a bad game twenty five and thirty five, two fifty one touchdown.
- 39:20He did get sacked three times, and uh, you know his his rating
- 39:24wasn't bad. It was one hundred. But now bring it down a little
- 39:28bit, Sean on this on these rushing stats, because that's what I thought,
- 39:30that that that Tampa did row well and that they have not had all
- 39:36seasons. Well, no, Swift hasn't been bad. I mean he's had
- 39:38his moments talking about Philllie, we're talking about Dell. Yeah, so their
- 39:45rushing game goes away, yes, and they can't do anything, and all
- 39:52of a sudden, Tampa finds, uh, finds their rushing game a little
- 39:55bit. They had a lot more rushings, but little. I mean they
- 39:58only average, only average four point one. But I thought that Rashad White
- 40:01played really good in the first half to get them that lead. But but
- 40:05you go back to you go back to you know, Dvante Smith had eight
- 40:08catches one hundred and forty eight yards, but one of those was that huge
- 40:12catch in the first half of the fifty five. We scored nine points in
- 40:17the second quarter, and then Tampa comes out to score nine points, so
- 40:22that nullifies that. So we're looking at sixteen seven. So what is that
- 40:25twenty seven to nine? Yeah, yeah, no, no, no,
- 40:30I'm sorry, twenty five. So you've got that. So they scored nothing
- 40:36besides that nine, and the other nine takes it out. So well,
- 40:38they had an answered point. They had the touchdown, and we stopped,
- 40:42and I thought the touchdown, I thought that they did they did. Know
- 40:45what happened is is we got an off side's penalty on the kick, so
- 40:50they moved it to the one. Sociriani and his genius goes, oh,
- 40:53yeah, we're going for two because they're at the one now, and they
- 40:57go for the touch push. I thought that was a huge moment swing just
- 41:00for the psyche of Philadelphia. They stopped the tush push. He did not
- 41:04get in and that was only a two point conversion. It wasn't for a
- 41:07touchdown. They'd already scored. But I thought that the momentum right then for
- 41:12that defense. I mean, they were already playing well, but man,
- 41:15they just kept going. They hold him scoreless in the second half. And
- 41:19in Todd Bowles, to his credit, and I've always said this, I
- 41:22don't think he's a great head coach. I've talked about potentially firing him many
- 41:28times, but I will always say that if I wanted to, if I
- 41:32was a head coach named Tomorrow and I wanted to hire a defensive coordinator,
- 41:36he'd be my number one call, hands down, because then he's calling the
- 41:39place. He said this week that he did some scheme changes. He said
- 41:43they knew they were weak in the backfield, so they were going to throw
- 41:45the ball a little bit more. But he said they schemed up some things
- 41:47in some different fronts. Tampa looked the best on defense that i'd seen them.
- 41:53Maybe, well, I mean not all I say all year. I
- 41:58mean, they haven't. It's not like they their rears kicked every game.
- 42:02They just haven't been able to score that much. So go ahead and talk
- 42:07about Baker, Sean, and then segue into that what do you mean you
- 42:09getting really talked about Baker and I out he did? He really did.
- 42:14I said, he boiled up, protected the ball what he had. Go
- 42:16back to that big hitter zero exception. Again, what was the turnovers on
- 42:21this game? I don't know? Uh was it a turnovers? Were there?
- 42:25I don't remember? Was zero turnovers? Turnover? Yeah? Okay,
- 42:29possession time of possession and I had it just a little bit longer and there
- 42:34was a lot of turnover twenty six yards to two hundred and seventy six.
- 42:37What was there? What was what was there? Philadelphia zero for nine third
- 42:44down the Yes, that's I'm glad you brought that up, Seawan. It
- 42:47was thank you. It was zero third down, zero third downs. I
- 42:52did have that wrote down summer see, and that was huge. I mean,
- 42:54that's what I'm saying. The defense looked the best they have and dare
- 42:58I say, hold on, you know that I have? Yes, id
- 43:04I have mentioned in previous pods that my thinking of Jalen Hurts maybe isn't maybe
- 43:10the Hall of Fame like you have maybe projected him to be in after one
- 43:15year. I think I'm gonna make this prediction right now, and I made
- 43:22mine. I made this two years ago about Joe Burrow. I said that
- 43:30Joe Burrow will never go back to the super Bowl with the I'm gonna make
- 43:35this prediction that Jalen Hurts will never go back to a super Bowl period.
- 43:39He people are figuring him out. He's not that great of a passer.
- 43:45The guy can move, no doubt. I'm just wondering there's a lot of
- 43:49discourse in that team if you hadn't I mean in Philadelphia, and if is
- 43:52he is he the leader? Is he a problem? I don't know.
- 43:54I mean, I don't know. I'm just saying I'm not gonna shit on
- 43:59him yet. I just know. I just know that dejection of the entire
- 44:04team. Though I do feel bad for Jason Kelsey. He did deserve a
- 44:07ring, He does deserve a super Bowl ring. But uh, yeah,
- 44:14Craig, he said that. Uh but Jalen Hurts isn't the problem on this
- 44:19team. That defensive collapsed. No, he did screw up in games and
- 44:23throw an interception, But how Josh Allen has too. Baker Mayfield has as
- 44:29well. In a minut I was gonna google it. I think Hurts has
- 44:32won. I want to see what what his I saw a stat and it
- 44:37could be wrong because I didn't fact check it, but it said that that
- 44:40if you'll look the scept Sewan leave that up. If you could do another
- 44:44screen now that Jalen Brown or Jalen Hurts has not won a playoff game unless
- 44:47the defense was held the opponent to seven or under points. Well that's anybody
- 44:54could do that. You know what I'm saying. He hasn't won one when
- 44:59the defense is given up more than seven points. Think about that. That
- 45:04means you're are you riding your defense into the playoffs? Maybe? Eh,
- 45:09that's my whole and most teams do. There's no doubt. I mean,
- 45:12we've got the the Brad Johnson's, we've got the uh what's his name from
- 45:17the Ravens coaches at UAB. Why can't I think of his name? Dilfer.
- 45:22You've got those coaches that's gonna come in. Just look at his playoff
- 45:24furgure that those coaches are gonna come in and they're going to I'm sorry,
- 45:29there's quarterbacks. I'm in and they're gonna ride some defense. I mean,
- 45:30sometimes you just need serviceable quarterbacks to do that. Is Jalen Hurts in that
- 45:37segment? Now? Is he just going to be serviceable or what are they
- 45:40doing here? Now? I do know he had an injury with his finger
- 45:45when it come up, you know, before the game. I noticed I
- 45:50did read and practice that he hadn't thrown the ball. I think he started
- 45:52throwing the ball on Friday, so there was some work and some healing to
- 45:57be done there. But I don't know. I just I'm he's he's working
- 46:00on that history. See if that stat's right. But I just wanted to
- 46:02know his playoff wins. Okay, here is Conference champion San Francisco seven super
- 46:14Bowl. They lost though, they lost New York Giants seven and seven.
- 46:21Did he play in this game? No? Twenty twenty one? I don't
- 46:27think so. We look at this heerds but no matter they lost twenty Yeah
- 46:37he didn't, Yeah they did. They lost though, I'm saying his wins
- 46:38yeah yeah, yeah. So his wins in the playoffs, the defense has
- 46:42held both teams to seven points. That stat was right? Yeah, cool,
- 46:45Kenny. I'm just saying thank you for whoever posted that on Twitter.
- 46:49Man, I thought that's interesting. Whatever number nerd out there. No,
- 46:53but I mean, that's what I'm saying. And then so obviously the Eagles
- 46:57started ten and one. That means they won one game after that? How
- 47:01many points they win? And I've already shut that window. They were in
- 47:06the thirties, both were in the thirties. Yeah, they did score in
- 47:07the thirties, and there's nothing wrong with that. But I'm saying, is
- 47:10you ride that defense. The defense has struggled this year. You just admitted
- 47:15to that, and they went struggled. They went from ten to one and
- 47:19then lost seven games and they only won one more. Yes, yeah,
- 47:24yes, exactly when the defense if you count this game. And it's like
- 47:30I said, it's like party. It's great to have everything around you working
- 47:34out great, but when you have to be, when you have to be
- 47:37a Hall of Fame quarterbacks, they put the team on their shoulders and they
- 47:42take them to the Promised Land. And that's just not what's happening here.
- 47:45But Party could. And I'm and I'm telling you I almost I've got a
- 47:50big prediction, not tonight predictions, but I have a party take that I'm
- 47:57going to bring up. If he keeps winning, I've got a pretty good
- 48:00take when it comes to that. I might and I might have some admittance
- 48:04on that, but come up and I'm gonna get so. Yeah, the
- 48:14dejection on the Philadelphia Eagles sideline was I'm not gonna say great, but you
- 48:19know they did not. They lost a lot of fight in that game.
- 48:22They went down to Tampa and they just they just stopped Raymond James Stadium.
- 48:28Is that what is that? Where they're at the Fort Lauderdale. They're in
- 48:31Tampa. That's across the bay. Across they're in Tampa, that's on the
- 48:39Tampa Bay. Richmond, it's in Dampa, Dish. So yeah, it's
- 48:46in a suburb like Dallas. Okay. So for upcoming games that side we
- 48:54have we have the Packers at the Niners uh in Santa Clara. Oh sixty
- 49:01two degrees. I thought that was gonna be colder than that has we done
- 49:04in the fifty Fives's five minutes we wrap up, all right, we're gonna
- 49:09we're gonna finish up. We're gonna give it a five minutes. We finish
- 49:14up with our picks where we're at right now about an hour. It will
- 49:17be about an hour. So so we talked that we all previewed the games.
- 49:22I thought, you know, you obviously got the two buy seeds or
- 49:27the BUYE teams, Ravens forty nine ers. Some people will think that that
- 49:30rest is too much. I think most teams went in pretty well. Hopefully
- 49:34used to have two teams, yes, yes, when they added, they
- 49:37added. Now so now it's well, you know you only have one.
- 49:40Yeah, I'm gonna have the package. Bring it up, let's go,
- 49:44let's do it. Packers, package, packers, niners, niners. Nine
- 49:47point spread is what Vegas Insider has. It's at forty nine thirty four.
- 49:53Taking that fourteen points, maybe thirty four, give them twenty in the end,
- 49:58give them that they score one in the end. What'd you get?
- 50:06Oh I thirty four to twenty. That's not a bad score. Actually,
- 50:15I think I'm gonna give I'm gonna give the packers a little bit more.
- 50:17I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go thirty eight, twenty seven, thirty eight,
- 50:22twenty seven, taking that ten point win. Yeah, I think they're
- 50:24gonna eleven and they're gonna score a little bit. Uh. Houston Baltimore and
- 50:30Baltimore in the cold weather twenty four twenty What is it is? It just
- 50:35cold? Looks like sunny. Twenty eight degrees is what it's. Uh,
- 50:38it'll be an afternoon kickoff, so it's gonna be bright. There's not under
- 50:43the light. It's gonna have the until the end. Maybe. So what
- 50:45do you got? It's twenty four to twenty so close? Mm hmm,
- 50:52spread? Excuse me? Spread on that's nine. You're gonna take Houston covering
- 50:54and spread. Yeah, I'm taking Houston, coverent? What's CJ? Stroud
- 50:59all of a sudden? Kno ball out? Lion's Buccaneers thirty one twenty seven
- 51:04for me. I'm also taking Houston to cover, not to win, I'm
- 51:07taking I'm taking Detroit thirty eight Buccaneers, gonna be a bitch. How did
- 51:16you know? Thirty eight thirty eight seventeen twenty four to twenty Detroit. I'm
- 51:25gonna take Detroit winning that one. Keep the score score stays low for that.
- 51:31Kansas City, Kansas City, Wait, wait for this one, Kansas
- 51:35City, Buffalo. I got Buffalo fifteen to ten. Well, that would
- 51:40be the Chiefs offense actually this year. So fifteen to ten. Actually,
- 51:47it's probably gonna be more than that because the Chiefs defenses, oh god,
- 51:52I don't know who they are. A night game looks like it's going to
- 51:55go twenty degrees at the Bill's Mafia. He's going through a table thirty one
- 52:00twenty seven. I'm gonna take the Bills too. They're my secret super Bowl
- 52:04pick, so I've got to keep going with them, Kenny. They can't
- 52:06be a secret super Bowl pick if you told everybody if not, yeah,
- 52:09I know, but they were my I mean, no one was picking them
- 52:13four or five weeks ago, is what I'm saying. They had looked at
- 52:15their lowest, they were a five hundred record, if you remember, they
- 52:20were lucky to get in the playoffs at your lowest exactly. Anyway, all
- 52:24right, what's is that? It is that? That's that's all the games,
- 52:27Joe, that's it. Gumut. We've picked every game the same.
- 52:31So yeah, nice quick news. Jason Kelsey of course is retiring. He
- 52:37is uh s spent time with his family. He looked to do that cool
- 52:42fucking podcast and he's got he looked at because it's hilarious. Yeah, he
- 52:46looked he looked like he was done. Uh for an NFL center, he
- 52:51has played like ten years past what he should have. And we've talked about
- 52:58this too, is when they start losing the line of for Hurts, we're
- 53:01gonna see what It's going to be interesting to see how that line maintains because
- 53:06clear Philadelphia's strength has always been that offensive line since Hurts has been there.
- 53:10You've got Lane Johnson, You've got Kelsey, all those guys. I mean
- 53:14that they have one of the best. He's gonna come back. He said
- 53:17he's gonna play. Yes, he said he is gonna He's gonna come back
- 53:21and play. So I think that that'll be huge for them. Also,
- 53:28in a news Caleb Williams made it didn't do a post that said he wanted
- 53:32to make sure the Bears wouldn't get the first pick. And so what we've
- 53:37claimed every day is since the Bear's got the number one pick, has trade
- 53:39that motherfucking pick. Please, There's no reason why for him to go no,
- 53:44no, but somebody wants him. That's the point the Giants. I
- 53:49do I do feel that I M Daniel Jones and Kate Allia Hey shoot with
- 53:55Belichick out does that chart to start to change the thing King, I mean,
- 54:00you're leaving the Patriots out immediately, but Belichick's gone, So does that
- 54:04change the draft dynamic there? About what they were coming maybe they tried to
- 54:09maybe was coming back? What was the other news Andrews Mark Andrews, He's
- 54:17he's he should be playing next week hopefully. Is he gonna try to make
- 54:22it back? And they said he was gonna try. He's very he's very
- 54:25close, all right. I think he's doing on field work. Uh,
- 54:30then we're gonna jump into that college. Uh. So we were talking about
- 54:34we were talking about the door gets hired at Alabama. That was we talked
- 54:37about that last week as we were closing that that rough just retired. And
- 54:42then so Debor Stills South of Alabama's sad coaches a decordinator And I was laughing
- 54:46with Kenny and I was like, does that mean Major apple White is going
- 54:50to take over South Alabama? Ken, he's the quarterback coach, so yeah,
- 54:52he he I think he's their co offensive coordinator, dude. Possibly Kaye
- 54:55Molemack takes the defensive coordinator job. From the universe. See a South Alabama
- 55:00who is a hell of a program and he's built a hell of a program.
- 55:02So you look at de Bor coming, he's not he is not there,
- 55:07uh an Alabama guy. Obviously, he's been up in the North Sioux
- 55:10Falls, re Resno, at the northwest area of the of the United States.
- 55:15So he hires a guy that's in Alabama already coaching and doing well and
- 55:19hires him and as his UH, as his his offensive defensive. Fish shows
- 55:24his colors and he just runs away to Washington for that money. Good job.
- 55:30And then it looks like Brent Brennan is gonna from San Jose State.
- 55:32It's gonna take the Arizona job. So it's gonna be tough because I think
- 55:37Fish is gonna take some of them dynamic offensive players, the wide the wide
- 55:40receiver, the quarterback. I can't think of his name. I should know
- 55:44it just because we just played there, but no, I thought it is.
- 55:47But listen, one thing that you got to think about, though,
- 55:50is Into Boor. And I'm not saying de Boor has. He has to
- 55:52me one of the most I always talked about this Sean a little bit.
- 55:58Washington looks so particular, truly good in every facet of the games. There
- 56:02was not a lot of trajectory was that of UH on the same it was.
- 56:12It was on the same level as UH Nick Saban the kind of except
- 56:17Nick had a little more NFL experience he did. But here's the deal.
- 56:22I'm saying that they're winning the culture that they build, the teams and their
- 56:24building, but is Alabama going to give them the time to do that?
- 56:29And I kind of wonder that's gonna be tough. I mean, like we
- 56:30talked about First Conference College Alabama and Georgia this year. College is the most
- 56:37cutthroat for coaches. No longer do you have a coach there for you know,
- 56:44over five years? Oh god, no, no, if they're not
- 56:46a winning coach, But kudos to some programs that have. So that's some
- 56:50things we'll talk about in the off season when we're into basketball and no football.
- 56:53So anyway, thanks, thanks for joining us. UH We'll be watching
- 57:00a lot of football and hope you enjoy it too. And we'll be back
- 57:01next week on Monday. Nope, no, okay, we're not on Monday.
