  Hi folks, this is Rick Doc. Walker to DOC.
• 0:03
  This is John Kime and you're listening to the mess hall with
• 0:05
  Rally Captain and Tailgate 10. What's going on?
• 0:10
  Rally You ready for going to the West Coast?
• 0:13
  Hey, man. Hell yeah.
• 0:14
  It's a different day. New vibe.
• 0:16
  What happened last week was just that it was last week.
• 0:19
  We're going to a new week. It's it's sunny outside.
• 0:22
  I mean, it's going to be sunny in LA, even though we'll be
• 0:25
  playing in a Dome. I'm.
• 0:27
  I'm ready. You ready?
• 0:29
  I wish I was going with you, man, I wish I was going with
• 0:31
  you. My circumstances changed on my
• 0:33
  end so I cannot make that one. But I I did get my SB events
• 0:37
  itinerary so I am counting down the days till I get to go with
• 0:41
  you. Out to Kansas City and you'll
• 0:43
  get some good BBQ. But while you're out in LA, what
• 0:47
  are the odds you're going to stop at Roscoe's and get some
• 0:49
  chicken and waffles? Probably a 10 out of 10 brother
• 0:53
  you got. To take a picture for me, man,
• 0:55
  that, that is my one thing I wanted to do if I made that
• 0:57
  trip. Actually, you know what, scratch
• 0:59
  that. That's the second thing I want
• 1:01
  to do if I made that trip. First thing headed to the rally
• 1:05
  out in LA, man, I had people messaging me last night asking
• 1:08
  me where's the rally in LA? What's going on?
• 1:11
  And you know, I got to be nice when I reply back.
• 1:14
  I I had a crafted reply saying just subscribe to rally captain,
• 1:19
  follow him on XI know you're wrong there because you sent me
• 1:22
  this message on there and he'll tell you where it is.
• 1:25
  I have no problem preaching. But, you know, let's just get it
• 1:30
  from the horse's mouth. Exactly, exactly.
• 1:33
  You know, I, I don't understand it, but hey, maybe they don't
• 1:36
  want to follow me, Ted. Maybe they just want to follow
• 1:38
  you and bug you and ask you. So there you have it.
• 1:42
  I don't mind it. I don't mind it at all, right?
• 1:43
  It's just I get people that still ask me, do you tailgate?
• 1:46
  Are you going to tailgate in Dallas?
• 1:47
  It's like I don't tailgate at away games.
• 1:50
  I have never, I take it back. The last away game I tailgated
• 1:54
  at was 2007 for the playoffs against Seattle in Seattle.
• 1:59
  All right. I just again, every time I get a
• 2:02
  chance to relax and actually be a regular fan without having to
• 2:07
  worry about stuff. So that's why I'm really looking
• 2:10
  forward to Kansas City, just because I get to hang out and
• 2:12
  not bust my butt and run around crazy.
• 2:14
  But for those that don't know, where is the rally going to be
• 2:19
  in LA this in LA this weekend? It's going to be a Time's Watch
• 2:22
  bar downtown on Figueroa St. I mean, prime location, great
• 2:27
  spot. You know, I've had other rallies
• 2:30
  at other times in different cities, and so they always treat
• 2:34
  me good. So they're going to treat us
• 2:35
  good and I'm looking forward to it.
• 2:38
  Oh, hell yeah, You said Tom's. I remember the rally in Vegas.
• 2:41
  Was it Tom's in Vegas on the Strip?
• 2:45
  Oh, that's a good time, man. They've, they've got some good
• 2:47
  cocktails there. They've got some good food.
• 2:50
  For those wondering, it is Wednesday and it is close to
• 2:53
  dinner time and there is a Tom's at National Harbor.
• 2:58
  Wonder if I can sneak out there after this.
• 3:00
  Go get something to eat. Make it worth your while.
• 3:03
  They'll treat you good. So last week those that attended
• 3:06
  the rally, we thought they were going to get a jersey.
• 3:10
  Can you elaborate on what the prize was that you got from the
• 3:13
  Commanders last week? Last week, the Commanders
• 3:17
  surprised me with a Frankie Loubou.
• 3:22
  Frank. Excuse me?
• 3:24
  A Frankie Loubou autographed helmet.
• 3:26
  Excuse me? Yeah.
• 3:28
  And I was surprised. I was expecting a jersey.
• 3:31
  But when everyone saw that helmet, they went crazy for it.
• 3:35
  Well that mini helmets easier to take home in your suitcase so.
• 3:39
  No, this was a this is no, this is not a mini helmet brother.
• 3:41
  This is a full size Washington Commander's helmet.
• 3:45
  Damn, a full size helmet. I can imagine trying to get that
• 3:49
  home from Atlanta. I mean, it's a nice problem to
• 3:51
  have, right? I mean, if someone and I don't
• 3:53
  know and I don't think you know what the team's going to get you
• 3:55
  for a life for that Rams game. But Can you imagine trying to
• 3:58
  bring that back and you can't fit that in your suit?
• 4:01
  I mean, most people probably take carry ONS, right?
• 4:04
  So you going to fit that in your carry on or are you going to
• 4:07
  have to wear that on the plane and will they let you actually
• 4:10
  wear it on the plane? I think the young lady who
• 4:13
  wanted drove from Iowa so. She drove.
• 4:19
  I, I think it was something like that, man.
• 4:21
  It was, it was something crazy that she, she drove her and her
• 4:24
  family drove up. So hey, you know, more power to
• 4:28
  her, man. I, I, I'm not going to going to
• 4:30
  fight the feeling. 13 hour and 40 minute 897 miles, give or
• 4:36
  take. It, it just goes to show you
• 4:38
  that we have fans everywhere. And you know, Tom's was asking
• 4:43
  me, well, what do you think the fan expectation will be?
• 4:47
  And I said, I, I really don't know.
• 4:49
  It could be anywhere from 300 to as we just had this last rally
• 4:54
  1500 plus. And so she's like, Oh my gosh.
• 4:58
  So I, I just don't know. But what I do know is we have a
• 5:02
  large fan base on the West Coast and oh hell yeah, a lot of them
• 5:08
  are reached out and said that they will be in attendance.
• 5:11
  So I can't wait. Well, I know a lot of people
• 5:14
  just forget the West Coast. A lot of people just want to go
• 5:16
  to Sofi, right? It's one of those stadiums
• 5:18
  people want to knock off the bucket list, and it's one I've
• 5:22
  been wanting to knock off the list because last time I went
• 5:24
  out to LA they weren't playing Sofi.
• 5:27
  So it'd just be nice to kind of do that.
• 5:29
  And also, it's a new stadium and I thought the World Cup was
• 5:32
  going to play there, but I also thought that they decided not
• 5:34
  to. So figured I could knock it off
• 5:36
  then. But to be able to be out there,
• 5:38
  I mean, how many times have you been to so far?
• 5:39
  So far. This will be my second trip.
• 5:42
  The first time is when we when we play them in.
• 5:44
  Was it 22 I believe, or 23 whenever it was?
• 5:50
  I can probably tell you we had to face the charge for the first
• 5:55
  time since 21, and it's the first time on the road since
• 5:59
  2017. Yeah.
• 6:01
  OK. Yeah.
• 6:01
  The commanders will head to Los Angeles to face off against the
• 6:04
  charges for the first time since 2021.
• 6:07
  So. Well, we played.
• 6:08
  We played the Rams. So it was 23.
• 6:12
  It was 23. So this is the first time we
• 6:14
  played the Chargers since 21 and the first time we had played
• 6:17
  them on the road since 2017. And back then, they would have
• 6:21
  been the San Diego Chargers, not the LA Chargers.
• 6:24
  Well, they were the San Diego Chargers, but they didn't play
• 6:29
  at their stadium when I was there.
• 6:31
  They played at StubHub Soccer Field, kind of like how how, how
• 6:36
  Audi Field is. They were doing, They were doing
• 6:38
  something with the stadium and so they played there and, and
• 6:42
  then the following years they went to the new stadium and so
• 6:47
  far. So I was really looking forward
• 6:49
  to seeing their stadium in San Diego, but I had to go to the
• 6:53
  soccer stadium. But hey, it's all good.
• 6:55
  I'm going back to LA. That's all that matters.
• 6:58
  Warm temperatures, good food, good people.
• 7:01
  Man, I can't wait. And some chicken and waffles,
• 7:03
  man, that's I'm jealous because I do love hitting that place up
• 7:07
  a couple times that I'm out there in LA.
• 7:09
  It's a good time. So for any of you, go and make
• 7:11
  sure you stop at Tom's Watch Bar on Saturday night. 5:30 to
• 7:16
  seven, 3530 to 7:30 and get there early because you know how
• 7:20
  this thing goes. And I don't want anyone outside
• 7:24
  waiting that they can't get a saying that they can't get in
• 7:26
  because we actually have people and I feel bad for them, who
• 7:29
  waited 45 minutes to an hour to get in.
• 7:32
  I mean, that's crazy. Yeah, I guess the only saving
• 7:35
  grace is you're amongst your brothers and sisters.
• 7:38
  So this way you're still out there kind of hanging out, but
• 7:43
  you're not with a bunch of strangers.
• 7:45
  So I cuz I'm not waiting that long if there's no one I know
• 7:50
  out there, right? If it's a bunch of people that
• 7:52
  I've heard the hell they are. I'm, I'm leaving.
• 7:54
  So, but I'm, I'm looking at Tom's watch bar right now on
• 7:58
  Google. I mean, the setup inside there,
• 8:00
  everything inside there looks freaking awesome.
• 8:03
  So definitely get there early. Guys.
• 8:06
  If you saw the video from the last rally, people were standing
• 8:09
  outside around the corner. I mean, just just get there.
• 8:13
  What do you like to say? Don't meet me there.
• 8:14
  Beat me there. Beat me there.
• 8:16
  That's right. There you go.
• 8:18
  I mean, rally's obviously getting in no matter what, but
• 8:20
  the rest of you guys might have to worry a little bit.
• 8:22
  So make sure you beat them there and go for.
• 8:25
  I wonder if the Dodgers are playing a playoff game while you
• 8:29
  guys are out there. I don't think I have time for
• 8:33
  that. I'm just so so freaking busy.
• 8:36
  When I get there, I hit the ground running so and plus we've
• 8:40
  got a, a stadium tour Friday. I can't wait to take everybody
• 8:43
  on. It's an immersive stadium.
• 8:46
  I, I, I love it there. Oh nice.
• 8:48
  Is that the same stadium tour? Did you do that a couple years
• 8:52
  ago? Is that when you saw?
• 8:53
  I did. Yep, that is correct.
• 8:56
  I thought so. I've never seen pictures of that
• 8:57
  when you're hanging out with Gronk.
• 8:58
  And I'm wondering if you can teach Bobby Wagner to cover a
• 9:03
  tight end. But, you know, maybe that's for
• 9:06
  a different day. Yeah, brother, that was last
• 9:09
  week's. That was last week's stuff,
• 9:10
  didn't we? He's going to cover the tight
• 9:12
  end this week. Our fingers are crossed.
• 9:15
  We're we're going to have to get into that and what hasn't
• 9:18
  changed this week from last week, but a couple things that
• 9:22
  are changing is they activated Sam Cosmi, his 21 day window.
• 9:28
  So. Cosmi has he practiced today?
• 9:32
  He said he felt good. So, I mean, he seriously doubt
• 9:36
  he's going to play this week. We're still going to have, you
• 9:38
  know, depending on what they feel, Chris Paul or Coleman or
• 9:41
  someone inside there at left guard.
• 9:43
  But on top of Cosby, we had got some other news about another
• 9:47
  guy that we kind of care about. News Sam Cosby will begin his
• 9:52
  2121 day window. He got injured in January and he
• 9:57
  has worked his ass off to get back on the field with his
• 10:00
  teammates, so it'll be great to have him back at practice.
• 10:02
  Also said I'd give you an update on Jayden.
• 10:04
  He has been medically cleared by the doctors.
• 10:06
  He'll practice full today. As far as other injuries and
• 10:11
  practice updates, we'll put out the injury report later today.
• 10:16
  So if you're listening to this, odds are, you know, that Jayden
• 10:20
  was out there today, was throwing the ball.
• 10:22
  He did have a knee brace on, which is, you know, I obviously
• 10:27
  you get it right. You want to protect him, want to
• 10:29
  make sure he's OK. So he was out there.
• 10:32
  He his spirits seem to be higher during his press conference
• 10:37
  today. His press conference last week,
• 10:39
  he was not happy at all, was kind of short with the reporters
• 10:42
  today during his presser, he seemed to be in a lot better
• 10:45
  mood. He says.
• 10:46
  I plan on going out there Sunday, right?
• 10:49
  He said he's never actually had to play with a brace before.
• 10:51
  I'm not the biggest fan of it, but if that's what I have to
• 10:54
  wear, I'll do anything. But we'll have to see on Sunday.
• 10:57
  So it's looking like it's trending like 5 is going to be
• 11:01
  out there this weekend. Well, you know the, the main
• 11:05
  thing, Ted that, and I know that I'm going back in time, but do
• 11:10
  you remember when RG had that brace on his knee?
• 11:12
  And any time that that something bad happened or he didn't
• 11:15
  complete a pass or he was trying to run, he would bang on his
• 11:18
  knee and, and, and just at the brace because the IT was like
• 11:21
  the brace was holding him back. Do you remember that?
• 11:23
  Oh yeah, I definitely remember that.
• 11:25
  I, I don't want that to happen with this young man.
• 11:27
  I mean, I told two different gentlemen, I understand that two
• 11:30
  different aspects of things. I just, if, if it doesn't
• 11:34
  happen, it doesn't happen. But let's not bang on the brace
• 11:38
  and, and, and overemphasize that, yes, you have a bulky
• 11:41
  brace on your leg. I'm hoping that that that the
• 11:45
  brace I actually will allow him to be extradited in and
• 11:50
  understand the importance of getting rid of the ball and and
• 11:54
  making sure that, you know, he senses that rush a little bit
• 12:00
  better. Yeah, I mean, from the Packers
• 12:05
  game when Jaden got hurt to now, Kingsbury has done a couple of
• 12:11
  things different, right? He has kept Trent Scott in and
• 12:14
  had him as an extra blocker, right?
• 12:15
  He's providing more pass protection for Mariota, which
• 12:20
  you got to think and you got to hope is going to translate to
• 12:22
  more pass protection for Jaden. Regardless of who's back there,
• 12:25
  they should have more time to throw that ball, right?
• 12:28
  It's. Just.
• 12:29
  Is Jaden going to be a little shell shocked from the injury
• 12:34
  and not want to take some hits and maybe get some happy feet
• 12:38
  that I don't know that we're not going to know until he gets out
• 12:41
  there? I mean, he's only played two
• 12:43
  games. His time to throw is 2.79
• 12:46
  seconds, right? That's pretty damn quick.
• 12:48
  Get rid of the ball. Mariota's is 2.69 seconds.
• 12:52
  So, you know, maybe that extra point, one second, 10th of a
• 12:56
  second, you know, is what helps Mariota out.
• 12:59
  But I just, I got to believe that the kid is hungry to get
• 13:04
  back out there. I mean, he didn't travel with a
• 13:07
  team to Atlanta. They asked him where he watched
• 13:09
  the game. And I don't know why everybody
• 13:10
  cares where Jade watch the game, but he watched the game from his
• 13:14
  couch at home. He didn't make the trip to
• 13:16
  Atlanta, I guess. They just with his leg up.
• 13:18
  Yeah, they didn't want him. Granted, it's a quick fight to a
• 13:21
  flight to Atlanta, a hell of a lot faster than a 13 1/2 hour
• 13:24
  drive. But you know, he's he stayed
• 13:27
  home, hung out. Maybe he had some chunky soup.
• 13:30
  You see his new Campbell's commercial.
• 13:32
  I I did and, and maybe he even rubbed it on his knee, you know?
• 13:36
  Who? Whatever it takes.
• 13:37
  That's right, man, what? Whatever it takes.
• 13:39
  And and one of the thing that you said a couple seconds ago
• 13:42
  is, you know, I don't think that he'll be necessarily shell
• 13:45
  shocked because the injury didn't happen while he was in
• 13:47
  the pocket. If the injury happened while he
• 13:49
  was in the pocket, then OK, yeah, I could see him being a
• 13:53
  little shell shocked. But at the same time, you do
• 13:56
  bring up a valid point. All it takes is somebody just to
• 13:59
  brush up against that knee and to to to feel that little bit of
• 14:03
  twinge, if you will say, oh, OK, I got to get rid of the ball
• 14:07
  faster or I got to I got to do my reads a little faster.
• 14:10
  And who knows, maybe he had his VR on going through the plays,
• 14:14
  you know, sitting on the couch. We'll see.
• 14:18
  Yeah, I mean, it's just they always say you never know how
• 14:21
  you're going to be until that first hit, right?
• 14:24
  And I don't want him to get hit. Let's do this like Mark Ripon
• 14:26
  and don't even get the gig in Touched, right?
• 14:28
  Let's just make sure he gets out of there with a clean jersey and
• 14:31
  we'll be good. But I got faith that if he has
• 14:35
  ready to go that he should be. The team we talked about on the
• 14:39
  last pod is actually flying out to LA early.
• 14:43
  So I'm not sure. You might be able to meet him
• 14:46
  out at Roscoe's and go hang out. Maybe that's going to give him
• 14:49
  some extra energy to get used to the time change.
• 14:51
  But this is actually DQ talking about the benefit to getting out
• 14:54
  there a couple of days early. Hi coach, You guys are heading
• 14:58
  into Los Angeles early. What is the benefit for your
• 15:00
  team to have that extra day of practice at the Coliseum already
• 15:03
  in Southern California? Yeah, we we decided that in the
• 15:06
  spring that we often times like to, you know, take an extended
• 15:09
  trip when we can. We've done it for a trip last
• 15:12
  year. We know obviously we're going,
• 15:15
  you know, to Madrid. We'll do that one.
• 15:17
  That's an extended time. Think of some good spaces for
• 15:19
  the team to get together. It's also, you know, to get
• 15:22
  acclimated, to get ready. There's a big time change with
• 15:24
  that. And so we thought we would make
• 15:27
  that decision to go out early, get ourselves, you know, fully
• 15:30
  ready, you know, to go play at our best.
• 15:34
  I mean, Jaden's from there, right?
• 15:36
  So he and Bobby are from the area.
• 15:39
  Maybe they're catching up with family.
• 15:40
  Whatever it takes, man, for them to stop playing on the road and
• 15:45
  coming out flat. I'm 1000% four.
• 15:49
  Same here bro. Same here.
• 15:50
  I think if anything I'll see him on Rodeo Dr. That's why I've
• 15:53
  probably seen it. Beverly Hills.
• 15:55
  Is that where you do your shopping now?
• 15:58
  No, don't get that rumor started because the next thing you know
• 16:04
  the rally captain's on the team playing and and he's with the
• 16:07
  players on rodeo drop. No, don't do it bro, Don't do
• 16:09
  it. Oh, I hear you, man.
• 16:11
  It just it amazes me what some people think like happens like
• 16:15
  they forget, like we still have to pay for our season tickets.
• 16:18
  It's just they're they're not free.
• 16:19
  I had some because. Normal people.
• 16:21
  You know, I need parking passes for some of my crew for the
• 16:24
  Bears game and their teams. Out of parking passes.
• 16:28
  Like if you reach out, they said they don't have any.
• 16:30
  They're actually out of season tickets.
• 16:32
  Apparently you can't buy season tickets anymore.
• 16:34
  I saw an e-mail about that. I have a feeling if you wanted
• 16:38
  club seats or Lowe's you can probably get those.
• 16:41
  So I don't know if it's all season tickets are out of, but
• 16:45
  they said they're out of season tickets in an e-mail that went
• 16:47
  out. Get some for 2026.
• 16:50
  But some people are like, oh, you have to pay for parking.
• 16:52
  Like, yeah, I got to pay for my tickets.
• 16:54
  Like, yeah. Everything has to pay for his
• 16:55
  flights, right? I mean, you are getting a Louvre
• 16:58
  helmet that you could probably sell for a nice set of cash, but
• 17:01
  you're not doing that. You're using it to raise money
• 17:03
  for the Red Cross, which I commend you on.
• 17:05
  Yeah, man. And, and actually, a lot of
• 17:08
  people told me that they wanted to get down there and try to
• 17:11
  donate, but it was just so tight getting down to where the actual
• 17:15
  display was to see it. So, but it's all good because we
• 17:18
  will have something else at Tom's Watch Bar.
• 17:21
  And you know, what we're going to do is we're going to collect
• 17:24
  all the money and then we're going to, at the end of the
• 17:26
  season, give it to the Red Cross.
• 17:29
  That's awesome. So we we talked about a a
• 17:32
  victory rally stake after a successful rally.
• 17:38
  Did you end up booking one? Well, what I did was no, I
• 17:43
  didn't because honestly, Ted, I was so tired.
• 17:45
  I stayed actually, I actually stayed a couple hours later and
• 17:48
  just watch some football and had some wings and just walked to my
• 17:52
  hotel room from where the rally spot was.
• 17:54
  So I thought that I was going to try to go out and do some
• 17:58
  things. But hey, I'm I'm a little older,
• 18:00
  bro. I mean, I look at but I'm a
• 18:01
  little older. And so my body said, Nah.
• 18:04
  Plus being on the road from, from San Antonio the night
• 18:07
  before, I stayed out, you know, my high school buddies for that.
• 18:10
  I was, I was. I was a little tired.
• 18:13
  So good news is there's a Ruth's Chris 11 miles away from Tom's
• 18:17
  Watch bar. So I mean, this way you make
• 18:22
  sure you get that victory stake no matter what.
• 18:27
  Oh yeah. Not saying you know it's going
• 18:29
  to go one way or the other, but just to make sure that you know,
• 18:32
  you you get some some good eats on that trip on top of where you
• 18:34
  going to go Roscoe's and Tom's. Definitely, man.
• 18:39
  But this week, not going to lie, man, we're, we're in for a tough
• 18:42
  one, right? We are the Chargers, they are no
• 18:46
  joke, but they're also banged up like we are, right?
• 18:51
  They lost Rashawn Slater, the Pro Bowl tackle, earlier this
• 18:54
  season. They lost their first running
• 18:57
  back, Najee Harris last week, they lost Joe Alt to a high
• 19:01
  ankle sprain and they also lost Makai Becton.
• 19:05
  He was out with concussion last week, so not sure if he's going
• 19:08
  to be in. But they actually had some
• 19:11
  problems last week protecting Herbert.
• 19:14
  Once those guys were out and their backups, what you would
• 19:18
  think, Jeff, definitely aren't as good as the starting guys.
• 19:22
  So good news is the Chargers are beatable, right?
• 19:24
  I mean, they did lose to the Giants, which I think is
• 19:28
  slightly misleading because they had to fly West to east.
• 19:33
  The difference this week is we're flying east to West.
• 19:36
  So we'll see how that goes. They're three and one.
• 19:39
  They lost to the Giants. It's the only team that they
• 19:42
  lost to mean they beat the freaking trying to remember now
• 19:46
  they beat the Chiefs and who else was on their schedule.
• 19:53
  That was the first game if I'm not mistaken.
• 19:54
  Yeah, the first game in Brazil, they ended up being the Chiefs
• 19:59
  and let me see if I can pull that up.
• 20:03
  That's. The main thing I think that
• 20:05
  we're going to find out is that hopefully we get Preston Smith
• 20:10
  back because like you said, their tackle is is hurt.
• 20:14
  And if they have a replacement in a lot of their squad is, is
• 20:18
  banged up, like you said. And so it's going to be two
• 20:21
  banged up squads fighting to to elevate their, their, their,
• 20:28
  their routine. You know, that's that's what it
• 20:30
  boils down to, two squads fighting to get a better
• 20:34
  schedule and take advantage of each other.
• 20:37
  Yeah, they ended up beating the Raiders 20 to 9, who we beat and
• 20:42
  a close one versus the Broncos at home, 23 to 20.
• 20:46
  So they've had, you know, the Broncos are a legit team,
• 20:49
  They're a good team. So we'll see what happens from
• 20:52
  there. The left tackle that came in
• 20:55
  Austin, I'm not even going to try and pronounce his name, got
• 20:58
  a 22.4 pass block grade right. So he did not do well.
• 21:03
  After Joel went down, Alt had eight snaps.
• 21:07
  The other guy had 40. So their center had a 24.6 pass
• 21:13
  block grade, right. And their right guard, Jamar
• 21:18
  Salier, had a 29.3. So they had a hard time
• 21:22
  protecting Herbert in that game. And I'm not saying we got the
• 21:26
  same pass rush as them, but looking at the game that they
• 21:31
  had against Denver, that same right guard had a 26.5 pass
• 21:36
  blocking grade, right? So apparently he's struggling
• 21:40
  this year. And Becton who got out knocked
• 21:43
  out with concussion prior to that had a 36.1.
• 21:47
  So they can get to Herbert and if you get pressure on him, he
• 21:52
  makes some bad throws. He definitely had a couple of
• 21:54
  bad picks last week against the Giants.
• 21:58
  The problem is the kid can also use his legs and that's what
• 22:02
  scares me this week is not keeping contain on Herbert
• 22:06
  because kid is fast, man. He's got some wheels and he can
• 22:11
  freaking use him. He had a one long run for 24
• 22:14
  yards last week, extended to drive once they was on the third
• 22:17
  down. And that's a problem we have
• 22:19
  again, right? If we play a bunch of zone,
• 22:22
  which we did last week, then you had some issues with guys
• 22:26
  finding holes in the zone. If we play man, Herbert's going
• 22:30
  to recognize the man and then just take off running.
• 22:33
  So it's kind of a pick your poison type of thing.
• 22:37
  Well, that's why these the front 4 they've got to play sound
• 22:40
  football and contain containment football to keep them in their
• 22:44
  pocket. But we know it's easier said
• 22:46
  than done. To be honest with you, Ted, I'm
• 22:50
  expecting a big game from Preston Smith.
• 22:54
  I think that he is going to be a part of the rotation this week
• 22:59
  and I think he has his legs underneath him and he's dying to
• 23:04
  Don the burgundy of gold again and get after quarterbacks.
• 23:08
  That's what I'm hoping for. I'm hoping you're right, Right,
• 23:11
  because he has not done anything obviously this season just
• 23:15
  because he hasn't played yet. And what kind of shape is he
• 23:18
  going to be in? I got to believe he'll be in
• 23:20
  good shape. I just don't know what to expect
• 23:23
  from him at this point. So who knows?
• 23:26
  But The thing is they're going to have to keep contain on this
• 23:28
  kid, right? It's we go back to stuff we
• 23:31
  talked about years past where it's 4 rushing is one, right?
• 23:35
  If you don't do that, he's going to make you pay.
• 23:38
  He's going to make you pay with his legs.
• 23:39
  And that's honestly what happened to them last week,
• 23:42
  right? Jackson Dark for the Giants made
• 23:46
  them pay with his legs. I want to say he had almost 60
• 23:48
  yards on the ground rushing. So you see that in your Herbert.
• 23:53
  You know what it's going to take to keep these drives alive and
• 23:57
  3rd and long. Even if we get into it.
• 23:59
  You just we talked about it on the last pot who's unaccounted
• 24:03
  for that quarterback and I'm sorry, but and this is no knock
• 24:09
  on our middle linebacker, but he's not going to spy a Herbert.
• 24:13
  He's just he's too slow. So who you going to have spy on
• 24:17
  Herbert from that standpoint? Because if you do that, they've
• 24:20
  got some receivers you got to worry about.
• 24:21
  So they asked DQ about the defense struggling so far and
• 24:27
  actually what gives him confidence that they're going to
• 24:29
  be able to turn around. This was D QS answer.
• 24:32
  Yeah, I know it's been a a bumpy start for the season for the
• 24:35
  defense overall, but what gives you confidence that the unit
• 24:38
  will be able to turn it around moving forward for the rest of
• 24:40
  the. Year a lot of confidence I
• 24:42
  thought you know there's a lot of progress.
• 24:44
  I thought, you know, with the exception of the second-half on
• 24:47
  3rd down, that's a big piece of how you want to play.
• 24:51
  And I thought, you know, in two games the energy intensity has
• 24:53
  been what I'd hoped it would be in pass rush and two others not
• 24:56
  so much. And so that gives me a good
• 24:59
  sense of what I know it can look like.
• 25:01
  Had we not seen that, I might feel differently.
• 25:03
  So I've got plenty of confidence in how we want to play and what
• 25:07
  it will look like. And so I'm very much looking
• 25:10
  forward to seeing that. What's your confidence knowing
• 25:18
  that no real changes are coming and personnel that the defense
• 25:23
  is going to be able to turn this around?
• 25:26
  My confidence is hearing what Revo had to say and I believe
• 25:32
  lighting a fire underneath everyone's.
• 25:35
  But to get after it, that game last week was putrid.
• 25:41
  It was. And so it comes from the inside
• 25:44
  out and that's what's got to get it done.
• 25:47
  And I don't see them putting up too bad performances
• 25:52
  back-to-back. And I don't want to hear that we
• 25:55
  flew from the east to the West. I don't want to hear that
• 25:58
  because at the end of the day, you guys are well conditioned to
• 26:03
  be able to do what needs to be done.
• 26:05
  And what I'm, I'm hoping for Ted is, is that they actually give
• 26:10
  Louisville a break, give him a breather, let him let him come
• 26:13
  out and blow some wind. You mean Wagner, Wagner, My, my
• 26:18
  apologies, Wagner, give Bobby a playoff.
• 26:22
  You know, and I know that he's he's Superman in everybody's
• 26:26
  eyes, but he's super. Even Superman needed a break.
• 26:29
  So I'm hoping that they learned a lesson from the rotation
• 26:33
  aspect of things and that they can get more guys on the field
• 26:38
  who are sucking wind if by chance we get into this
• 26:41
  situation where the time of possession is in favor of the
• 26:45
  Chargers. Yeah, I mean it to me.
• 26:50
  You need to make sure your offense stays on that field.
• 26:53
  So there's defense that is up there to a degree, just gets a
• 26:58
  chance to get some rest. A defense that's also banged up,
• 27:02
  a defense that's also to a degree getting picked on, right?
• 27:07
  And what concerns me is if the offense looks rusty, because
• 27:12
  let's just be real. When Jaden was in, the offense
• 27:16
  looked rusty. They don't look like they're in
• 27:19
  reform. They look like an offense that
• 27:21
  did not really do anything in preseason, but like an offense
• 27:25
  that didn't really get to do anything in training camp.
• 27:27
  And with Jayden back, I highly doubt that Terry's going to be
• 27:31
  back. According to Nikki Javala, Terry
• 27:35
  was not out there during the media portion of today.
• 27:38
  Noah Igbenogni. Sorry, no.
• 27:42
  Noah Brown and Jonathan Jones were on the side field working
• 27:45
  with a strength coach, but John Bates was stretching with the
• 27:48
  rest of the team. So we don't have the actual
• 27:51
  injury report out yet. The team doesn't put it out
• 27:53
  until later on. If they put it out with a
• 27:55
  recorder, we'll obviously update everybody.
• 27:57
  But the offense look like it's struggled with Terry out there.
• 28:02
  Without Terry out there, I don't know what it's going to look
• 28:05
  like. Maybe Luke McCaffrey keeps the
• 28:07
  ball rolling and gets another TD.
• 28:10
  Best to be sure I'm going to throw another any time touchdown
• 28:12
  bet on Luke. But what kind of offense are we
• 28:15
  going to get with Jaden out there?
• 28:17
  Because he hasn't gotten the reps, hasn't had a chance to get
• 28:20
  them. And yeah, he does have the VR
• 28:22
  goggles, but you can only get so much from those mental reps.
• 28:26
  The physical ones are really what counts.
• 28:30
  Well, what I hope, Ted, is what we talked about in training camp
• 28:38
  when I said that at some point in time the an unknown has got
• 28:44
  to step up, become unknown and we've had sprinkles, but we need
• 28:51
  the actual downpour and the same way and, and forgive me for
• 28:56
  talking about that other team over there the same way that
• 28:58
  dude came in for part, not Parsons, but CD and stood up.
• 29:03
  We need somebody like that to stand up and say, Gee, I know
• 29:06
  you had it in you, or maybe I knew you had it in you, but
• 29:09
  you've it. The light bulb came on this
• 29:11
  particular game. And so we need to be clicking on
• 29:14
  all cylinders if we're going to beat this team in that home
• 29:18
  environment that they have. Yeah, I mean, I've you would
• 29:22
  know over me, but I've heard that Sofi isn't much of A home
• 29:25
  field advantage just because you have a lot of visiting team
• 29:29
  player visiting team fans that come in and kind of take over
• 29:32
  that stadium. I I would have no clue if that's
• 29:36
  true or. Not.
• 29:38
  Oh, I mean, any Dome could definitely get loud, but you
• 29:42
  know, a way to shut them up is to control that ball.
• 29:45
  Right now we're averaging 33% on 3rd down.
• 29:49
  Obviously that is not good at all.
• 29:52
  So we got to do something to change that trend and buck that.
• 29:57
  I mean, from your perspective, what needs to change for us to
• 30:03
  actually get that dub out in the West Coast?
• 30:07
  I need actually, in all seriousness, Ted, you said you
• 30:12
  don't want to see Jayden get hit.
• 30:14
  I actually do want to see him get hit just to be able to say,
• 30:19
  oh, my knee is sturdy. The the brace is doing what it's
• 30:23
  supposed to do. Do you remember when Alex Smith
• 30:25
  came back and, and, and everybody's like, no, don't put
• 30:28
  him out there because we were playing the Rams and it was
• 30:31
  Brian, was it Donaldson, I think is his name.
• 30:34
  And Donaldson Aaron Donald jumped on, jumped on his back
• 30:39
  and everybody was like, Oh my God, no, but he came back.
• 30:42
  He was miked up that game and he goes then that leg is strong as
• 30:44
  hell. So and, and that gave Alex a
• 30:48
  little bit more confidence as well because he saw that.
• 30:51
  No, I, I am, you know, it's one thing to, to think that you are,
• 30:54
  but once you get that hit and, and you can, you can take it and
• 30:57
  it doesn't bother you, that gives you confidence.
• 31:00
  And so I know you said you don't want, and I don't want him to
• 31:02
  get obliterated or anything like that, but just give me a little
• 31:05
  hit so he can get his confidence up because to say, Oh, I am good
• 31:10
  to go, you know, and, and that that's what I'm, I'm looking
• 31:13
  for. Just just just let the man
• 31:16
  mentally know that he's sound because like you said, until you
• 31:20
  get it hit, you don't really know.
• 31:22
  And and otherwise other words, you also be wondering, you'll be
• 31:26
  hearing ghost steps, you know, and so just go ahead and get it
• 31:30
  out the way, you know, not a hard hit, but you know, it's
• 31:33
  something that just can make them to say, give him the
• 31:35
  confidence that he needs to be able to stay back there.
• 31:38
  And who knows, it may not have slowed him down that much.
• 31:42
  I'd be interested to see what his total rushing yards on
• 31:46
  draftking is going to be because he also could be trying to prove
• 31:49
  something to people that that he is good to go.
• 31:51
  So that's what I want to see. I just wanted to be able to see
• 31:56
  him bounce back from this and return to the JD five that we
• 32:02
  know we have and he has inside of him.
• 32:06
  Yeah, I mean, if we know he watched the film, right, Jackson
• 32:10
  Dart had 10 carries for 54 yards and a touchdown, All right?
• 32:15
  So, you know, he's thinking the same thing for him.
• 32:17
  He's going to be able to somewhat do that against this
• 32:21
  Charger defense. The Chargers, they like to bring
• 32:23
  the blitz man, when I was watching the game from this past
• 32:26
  week, you know, they were coming from different angles, bringing
• 32:29
  those corners in, just trying to trick Jackson.
• 32:32
  You know, he's a rookie. So, and I get it, they're going
• 32:36
  to try and do the same thing to Jayden.
• 32:37
  They're going to try and floss from trying to get to him.
• 32:40
  And I'm just hoping he is smart with the times that he needs to
• 32:44
  run. But the offense, no offense to
• 32:48
  Mariota, it's just not explosive.
• 32:52
  With Marcus back there, there was nothing dangerous about this
• 32:56
  offense. With him running it, it seems
• 33:00
  more safe and manageable and it put up 27 points last week.
• 33:04
  But let's be real, it could have put up a hell of a lot more.
• 33:07
  But we were trading in fuel, no touchdowns for field goals.
• 33:11
  So we just we can't do that this week against the Chargers team
• 33:15
  that is going to be pissed off about losing to the Giants,
• 33:20
  right? It's I can't believe that they
• 33:23
  lost to the Giants. A big part of that is they had
• 33:27
  14 penalties for 107 yards, right?
• 33:30
  I don't think we can count on them being that sloppy at home.
• 33:34
  And I don't think these penalties were because they're
• 33:37
  playing at MetLife and it was loud.
• 33:40
  I just think that they were being sloppy and best believe
• 33:42
  their coach is going to RIP them a new one this week in practice
• 33:45
  to make sure that they don't make those stupid ass penalties
• 33:47
  this week against us. Well, I think also, like you
• 33:50
  said, they looked at the press clippings.
• 33:54
  They are winless team. We can come in, we're the
• 33:56
  Chargers, we can come in here and do we got to do and they
• 33:58
  surprise them. And they probably also were
• 34:01
  training for Russell Wilson, who thought, you know, he wasn't
• 34:06
  going to run the ball and as you said, dart, he ran the ball.
• 34:10
  And we've always said that the only person that technically is
• 34:13
  unaccounted for is the quarterback.
• 34:15
  So he can sprinkle out there and, and get a couple yards and,
• 34:20
  and be the game changer that he was.
• 34:23
  So I'm I'm hoping that that JD can do the exact same thing.
• 34:26
  Do it smart, do it wise. I'm hoping so too.
• 34:30
  And the Chargers dropped four spots in the Power Rank because
• 34:32
  they were fourth. They dropped to 8th after losing
• 34:35
  to the Giants. And it says here, losing to the
• 34:37
  Giants was tough enough for the Chargers, but the Joe Alt ankle
• 34:40
  injury added a good squeeze of lemon juice into their open
• 34:43
  wounds. Los Angeles hadn't protected
• 34:46
  Justin Herbert well enough before Alt's injury.
• 34:49
  Remember this line loss Pro Bowl left tackle over Sean Slater to
• 34:52
  a torn patellar tendon in August, so this is a major
• 34:55
  concern for however long the stud tackle is out.
• 34:58
  The Bolts had no shot of keeping her clean after Austin replaced
• 35:02
  Alt, and they might have to consider outside options to keep
• 35:06
  this season going on the right track.
• 35:08
  They made it a 21 to 18 game late in the third quarter, but
• 35:11
  did nothing on their final three possessions, ultimately losing
• 35:14
  by that same score with 14 penalties and two Herbert picks.
• 35:18
  It was a day to forget and a serious blow to L as
• 35:21
  credentials. So if I'm bringing plus
• 35:24
  clippings and I'm them, I'm putting that one up in the
• 35:27
  locker room, all right, Because I did a a hit with Guy Lambert
• 35:32
  after Week 1 and he asked me who's the team to watch and I
• 35:35
  said the Chargers, all right, I mean, what they did to the
• 35:39
  Chiefs, granted, it was Week 1 and it was in Brazil, but
• 35:42
  Herbert just looked damn good. That team just looked really
• 35:45
  good. But the NFL, not for long.
• 35:48
  You got a bunch of guys hurt on their team and they're
• 35:50
  definitely, you know, dealing with that.
• 35:53
  And just like we are as well. It's it's frustrating to see if
• 35:57
  it's just part of the game. Yeah, it really is.
• 36:00
  Don't want it, but you got to try to your best to adapt and
• 36:04
  overcome and and that's what we are right now.
• 36:09
  So I think last week we were actually eight in the power
• 36:14
  rankings and the Chargers took our spot.
• 36:18
  So give or take 3. I'm going 12, bro.
• 36:23
  I'm going 12. I'm going 12.
• 36:26
  Is is that your final answer? That's going to be my final
• 36:29
  answer, 12. No, I said 13.
• 36:35
  Close, man, close. We are 11, so we dropped three
• 36:40
  spots. It says here.
• 36:42
  The Commanders were not great offensively in Atlanta without
• 36:44
  Jaden Daniels and Terry Mclaurin, but they're still put
• 36:47
  up 27 points. The defense didn't hold up at
• 36:50
  the end of the bargain, allowing 10 plays of 15 yards or longer.
• 36:54
  Six of those plays came in the second-half while Washington was
• 36:57
  trying to claw back. Mike Sanderson's third quarter
• 37:00
  INT felt like a potential turning point, but the
• 37:02
  Commanders couldn't convert the short field into a touchdown and
• 37:05
  Atlanta skirt and Atlanta scored on its next two drives.
• 37:08
  Mariota LED 6 score drives in nine possessions, but also threw
• 37:12
  a pick and never quite settled in all game.
• 37:15
  The Commanders are now O and two away from home with three of the
• 37:17
  next four games on the road. They need to be better, and
• 37:22
  three and two sounds a hell of a lot better than two and three.
• 37:24
  Man, it's it's going to be an interesting one this week.
• 37:29
  I I'd love to be 3 and two. I really would.
• 37:33
  So give me a a player on defense and offense or special teams
• 37:39
  like that needs to step up for us to make sure we you walk out
• 37:45
  of Sofi with a smile. I'm going to say to Ron Payne, I
• 37:54
  need to Ron Payne and show me that fire that he had against
• 37:59
  the the Raiders. I need, I need to see that
• 38:05
  because I think that he is the eldest as far as tenure on the
• 38:10
  team. So technically this is his team.
• 38:14
  So he he needs to step up and be the leader and get those for
• 38:19
  fighting. What about you?
• 38:21
  Yeah, just going back to the Ron, he had a A24IN tackle, his
• 38:26
  PFF. He had a couple of missed
• 38:28
  tackles, couple of big missed tackles that that definitely
• 38:31
  hurt, right? And could have stopped some of
• 38:34
  those long drives mean for me, I need Lattimore to step up,
• 38:42
  right? He's he's being called out, he's
• 38:44
  being singled out, right? And he he's not living up to the
• 38:47
  hype. He's not living up to that
• 38:49
  trade. You know, he hears it, right?
• 38:52
  His his coverage grade was a 36 last week and they got some good
• 38:57
  receivers over there in LA. So we need to worry about what's
• 39:02
  he going to be able to do because what is it?
• 39:05
  Quentin Johnson? Dudes a stud, right?
• 39:09
  They're running back. Hampton is a stud.
• 39:11
  They got some good weapons on offense.
• 39:14
  And if our pass rush can't get there, like we had an issue last
• 39:20
  week versus a quarterback that does not like to move in the
• 39:23
  pocket, we're going to need that covers to be a little bit
• 39:26
  tighter. Man, I don't know how many times
• 39:29
  back in the day when we had some good corners, we will get
• 39:31
  covered sacks. We need that to happen this week
• 39:35
  to help that defensive line actually get to Herbert because
• 39:39
  if he gets pressure, he will throw that ball up in the air
• 39:42
  and do some dumbass passes that just shouldn't go out there.
• 39:45
  But this is actually DQ talking about Lattimore with with
• 39:48
  Marshawn. Do you feel teams are going
• 39:50
  after him? And I guess that'll be Part 1.
• 39:52
  And then two, how do you feel he has been performing?
• 39:55
  Yeah. So Part 1, when you play middle
• 39:58
  field coverage, like both corners, you don't get targeted
• 40:01
  to where you go. Sometimes it's their match up,
• 40:03
  sometimes it's ours. I don't feel that's been the
• 40:06
  case. And then the second part, can
• 40:10
  you repeat? Yeah.
• 40:11
  So I'd say there's when you play corner and you play offensive
• 40:14
  tackle, like there's a lot of plays that go good to go
• 40:16
  unnoticed. And there's one that goes up top
• 40:18
  and it's like there's one or there's a sack.
• 40:19
  And like, that's part of, you know, living life, you know,
• 40:23
  outside and. What I do know about him like
• 40:26
  this is 1 competitive guy and like he's always down for the
• 40:29
  challenge and for the fight and so I'm looking forward to to
• 40:32
  work with him again this week and as we get rocking again.
• 40:37
  I honestly feel like he is being targeted at this point.
• 40:41
  Right? Just double move flags coming
• 40:45
  right? Don't know if I'm right or wrong
• 40:47
  but that's just what I'm seeing from looking at this.
• 40:49
  And if it ain't broke, you know, if I'm another team's offensive
• 40:54
  coordinator, I'm seeing that if other teams call this play
• 40:57
  against Lattimore, he's biting and he's falling for it.
• 41:00
  And there's not a lot that we can do right now to change.
• 41:03
  They're talking about trying to move people around.
• 41:06
  Communication is a problem right now.
• 41:08
  Guess what's going to be even worse?
• 41:09
  If you got guys that have been playing outside all preseason
• 41:14
  and training camp and now you try to move them inside, what do
• 41:16
  you think? Communication is going to get
• 41:18
  better. That is the playing another
• 41:19
  position that they haven't been doing all pre season, all
• 41:22
  training camp. The best defense right now is a
• 41:25
  good offense, right? And if 5 coming back can do it,
• 41:30
  who else on offense needs to step up For us to be able to
• 41:34
  control that ball, to make sure that we're not going to ask
• 41:37
  kicking time, possession by 10 minutes in the first half to
• 41:39
  make sure that we have more than 22 plays on offense in the first
• 41:43
  half. I'm going to say Terry's
• 41:47
  replacement Lane. Lane has got to step up and
• 41:50
  catch the ball because if I'm not mistaken for the Atlanta
• 41:53
  game, he he was thrown something that he missed it or he didn't
• 41:59
  have. At least a drop.
• 42:01
  In that game and at this juncture, we can't have that.
• 42:05
  I don't, I don't care who you are.
• 42:07
  We we got to have completions. He played 44% of snaps, 25 snaps
• 42:14
  for Jalen Lane. And for me it's it's going to be
• 42:17
  Bill, but it's going to be Bill and pass protection.
• 42:21
  We all know what Bill can do with a ball in his hand.
• 42:25
  I need to see Bill step up when he doesn't have the ball.
• 42:29
  I need to see Bill step up and pick up that blitz.
• 42:31
  Because from what I watched in the two games that the Chargers
• 42:35
  had that were kind of close, they were bringing those corner
• 42:38
  blitzes. They're bringing a couple
• 42:39
  delayed blitzes. And to me, that's going to be
• 42:42
  Jaden to a recognize, but Bill to pick up and if he does the
• 42:47
  only like he did last week in Atlanta, I'm just praying that
• 42:51
  Jayden sees it coming, feels it coming and gets out of there
• 42:55
  right. I mean, Smoot likes to call him
• 42:57
  Jedi five man if he's got to use the force or whatever he has to
• 43:00
  do to feel that pressure coming. I'm just hoping it happens.
• 43:03
  But I would rather Bill pick up that blitz and do what needs to
• 43:06
  be done to protect him, to make sure he's good.
• 43:09
  Because let's be real, we're going to have to throw the ball
• 43:12
  right? We can't just run the ball down
• 43:13
  their throats. That's just not what this team
• 43:15
  is built for. So when that happens, I just
• 43:20
  need Bill to be able to step up when he's out there.
• 43:24
  Yeah, So St. Juice is on the Chargers team,
• 43:29
  that's who. Maybe if it's thinking about
• 43:32
  them, Forbes, but but they both are out West, so just make it
• 43:37
  happen. But he's a Charger if I'm not
• 43:39
  mistaken. I'm looking at Saint Juice.
• 43:46
  Is he? On the roster.
• 43:47
  Yeah, I think he is on the. Roster.
• 43:48
  Yeah, he's on the roster. Everybody picked on him when he
• 43:50
  was with us. So maybe we can, you know, have
• 43:55
  a speedster get by him and he can put his hands on him and we
• 43:59
  can get some penalties going that way that maybe that'll help
• 44:03
  for us. There you go.
• 44:04
  Because he was a biter. He he bid big time.
• 44:08
  Apparently he is not their starting corner, he is their
• 44:11
  backup corner. That's how bad it's got for him.
• 44:14
  But. Well, he wasn't starting for us
• 44:16
  either, but when he did come in, they were like, oh, whatever
• 44:19
  that number was, he was at the time.
• 44:21
  He's in the game. Do a double move and you'll get
• 44:23
  a penalty or you'll get you'll pay dirt and that's what would
• 44:26
  happen. Yeah, I mean, he's going to be
• 44:29
  in the game eventually. You're not going to be able to
• 44:32
  hide him the entire time. So when he's in there, we just
• 44:34
  got to take advantage of it, right?
• 44:36
  When he's in there, we just got to make sure that you see this
• 44:39
  guy and you go after him, right, that we are going to have some
• 44:42
  favorable matchups. It's just a matter of giving
• 44:45
  Jaden time to find them, giving Jaden time to make that throw
• 44:50
  and St. juice. He played six snaps on defense
• 44:54
  last week, so not a ton, but they've got some other guys out
• 44:58
  there that just didn't do too well.
• 44:59
  So I mean, I'm thinking between a combination of Jaylen Lane and
• 45:05
  Bill and ertz out there and Luke and can't forget Debo.
• 45:11
  I mean, this offense, we've got weapons, right?
• 45:14
  Just because Terry isn't there doesn't mean we can't move the
• 45:16
  ball and do what we need to do. Yep, somebody got to step up.
• 45:20
  So it's just, it's the next man up.
• 45:22
  But right now Washington's getting 2 1/2.
• 45:27
  I think it was 3 or 3 1/2 before the Jane announcement and it
• 45:31
  shifted down to 2 1/2. I'm not going to lie man, I'm I
• 45:36
  don't know if I like this match up this week for us.
• 45:41
  If I have to put money down on it and bet on the team, I think
• 45:46
  I am going to take LA this week. I thought this was always going
• 45:49
  to be a tough one regardless if we were healthy, just because we
• 45:53
  were going all the way out there, just because they are a
• 45:56
  good team. Which way are you leaving?
• 46:00
  I have to agree with you. If I had to bet money, which I'm
• 46:04
  glad I don't, I may have to swing with the Chargers.
• 46:09
  And I know that that's not what everyone wants to hear.
• 46:12
  But if we're going to be honest, then we got to do that, you
• 46:17
  know, as a song regulators got to mount up.
• 46:21
  But I heard the music playing. But before the music fully
• 46:26
  engulfs us, you guys have always asked me to hold a home rally.
• 46:33
  Well, we're going to have a home rally.
• 46:37
  Stay tuned for the next episode and you'll hear all about it.
• 46:40
  You. Got to leave me like that man.
• 46:42
  I I can't wait to hear about this.
• 46:44
  Oh yeah, brother. I'm going to have to get my
• 46:47
  tailgate prep done early just so I can make sure I show up for
• 46:50
  that. That I don't know if I can show
• 46:51
  up early for because I can run around all day, but I'm
• 46:54
  definitely going to have to make it out for that.
• 46:56
  Oh yeah, so we'll be good to go. So stay tuned.
• 46:59
  Well, good news is we both picked us to win last week and
• 47:04
  we lost. So both of us picking us to lose
• 47:07
  this week might flip it upside down.
• 47:10
  I'm hoping so. Whatever it takes, brother.
• 47:12
  Rub on that genie lamp. Whatever you got, you don't know
• 47:14
  we we're going to need it. Amen.
• 47:17
  Well, that's going to bring us to a close.
• 47:19
  We thank you guys for listening. We'll see you on the next one.
• 47:22
  Remember, you rap it hard. I don't rap it at all.
• 47:25
  Rally Captain Tailgate tears. Hopefully we're on the dove side
• 47:29
  next time you talk to us.
