- 0:19Speaker 3: Second and four.
- 0:20Speaker 2: Here's Nicks going for the long ball.
- 0:22Speaker 3: He's got to step on him.
- 0:23Speaker 2: Hey, the Brocos strike curly with the touchdown to Franklin
- 0:28Speaker 2: from forty three yards out.
- 0:30Speaker 4: It was Nicks who got slaughtered after the throw by Smoot,
- 0:34Speaker 4: but he finds his old Oregon teammate Troy Franklin from
- 0:38Speaker 4: forty three yards out.
- 0:42Speaker 2: Now, remember we have the kicker. Cam Liddle has the
- 0:46Speaker 2: two longest kicks in NFL history. This guy could kick
- 0:50Speaker 2: it from anywhere.
- 0:51Speaker 5: We've never seen him have to stretch it out in
- 0:53Speaker 5: a game like this, you might have to.
- 0:56Speaker 4: You can see the yard is line to get to
- 0:58Speaker 4: is at the fifty.
- 1:00Speaker 2: That would match his career long as sixty eight yard
- 1:02Speaker 2: to ten balls. Cpter dictate this hunter as Colin Pissop
- 1:07Speaker 2: gets it up the rebound, t Davious White tipped it and.
- 1:12Speaker 3: The Bills come down.
- 1:14Speaker 2: To Jackson Bill and break a lot of hearts.
- 1:18Speaker 3: How you guys feel about running it back? Just run
- 1:22Speaker 3: it back for round two I'll tell you two things
- 1:28Speaker 3: that hit me very quickly yesterday. Number one was anger
- 1:32Speaker 3: in the fact that I wanted to see Cam Little
- 1:36Speaker 3: attempt a seventy yard field goal to try and tie
- 1:38Speaker 3: a playoff game, and I was denied that by the interception,
- 1:40Speaker 3: which made me upset. Secondly, motion mun apologize to you.
- 1:46Speaker 3: As I said all week, I think the Chargers were
- 1:48Speaker 3: going to be that was like, I mean, look, there
- 1:50Speaker 3: wasn't a good matchup really, because all these teams are good,
- 1:52Speaker 3: but there was a nightmare matchup that I didn't want,
- 1:55Speaker 3: and I didn't want to play the Chargers again. And
- 1:57Speaker 3: then I watched the Chargers play the Patriots, and I
- 2:00Speaker 3: was rooting very hard for Justin Herbert to win that
- 2:02Speaker 3: game because I watched Josh Allen basically single handedly win
- 2:05Speaker 3: that game towards the end against the Jags. And now
- 2:10Speaker 3: I'm on your side. Not what I wanted, was Josh Allen.
- 2:13Speaker 5: Now, well, maybe the Patriots made Justin Herbert looked that way.
- 2:18Speaker 2: God man, I think they did. I think that they
- 2:21Speaker 2: did a little bit. I mean, actually I think they
- 2:23Speaker 2: did probably a lot. But also he excuse me, he
- 2:27Speaker 2: vic didn't do anything. I mean, he did absolutely nothing.
- 2:30Speaker 2: That's your quarterback, bro, And he can't win a playoff game.
- 2:33Speaker 2: That ain't my quarterback, bro. He doesn't play for the
- 2:35Speaker 2: Denver Broncos. Brett, whose quarterback is Mark Moses's quarterback?
- 2:41Speaker 3: You like Herbert? I like Herbert, I don't Herbert Hebert.
- 2:46Speaker 3: I don't know how much of that was on Herbert alone. Now,
- 2:52Speaker 3: I think he held onto the ball way too much
- 2:54Speaker 3: in that game. But good god, is that offensive line
- 2:58Speaker 3: just terrible?
- 2:59Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 3:00Speaker 3: They're bad, bad.
- 3:02Speaker 2: I think I saw starting tackles. I mean what the
- 3:06Speaker 2: fact that they got to where they got to missing
- 3:08Speaker 2: two tackles is unbelievable.
- 3:11Speaker 3: Let me tell you something about Now. I don't know
- 3:13Speaker 3: how much you guys trust the pro football focused stuff,
- 3:17Speaker 3: but here's what they had after that game. Justin Herbert
- 3:21Speaker 3: had thirty one passing attempts in that game. How many
- 3:23Speaker 3: pressures did the Patriots have on the day.
- 3:26Speaker 2: Oh, I'm gonna guess probably twenty three thirty Jesus lord,
- 3:31Speaker 2: oh my goodness.
- 3:32Speaker 3: So according to that, that means all but one passing
- 3:36Speaker 3: attempt that he had he was pressured? Is that what
- 3:38Speaker 3: that means? Because that's unbelievable.
- 3:41Speaker 6: And you know how when when the players do their
- 3:43Speaker 6: intros where they say their name and their school and everything.
- 3:46Speaker 6: At the bottom, it has their Pro Football Focus rank.
- 3:49Speaker 3: Oh, the Chargers are like last in every.
- 3:52Speaker 6: The Chargers center. The center was ranked forty first out
- 3:56Speaker 6: of forty one players. How is that possible?
- 4:00Speaker 3: Well, there's always gotta be a last play somewhere. Now, Oh,
- 4:04Speaker 3: that's no and void because you're playing against the Bills
- 4:06Speaker 3: now this weekend, and I think there are some things
- 4:10Speaker 3: that from a positive standpoint are intriguing. There's a lot
- 4:13Speaker 3: that are negative too. But first thing that hits you
- 4:16Speaker 3: when you found out it's likely to be the Bills
- 4:18Speaker 3: unless the Chargers did something miraculous late in that game.
- 4:22Speaker 3: How'd you feel?
- 4:23Speaker 2: Revenge? A little revenge?
- 4:26Speaker 5: This game's here now. Now you're probably not going to
- 4:28Speaker 5: do to them what they did to you and Buffalo
- 4:30Speaker 5: last year. All Right, that's gonna be asking a lot.
- 4:32Speaker 5: But here's a chance for a redemption tour, and it
- 4:36Speaker 5: starts with Buffalo. This is what Sean Payton said last
- 4:39Speaker 5: year after losing that game. He said, we got to
- 4:41Speaker 5: find a way to get this game in our home yard.
- 4:44Speaker 5: Here's the game here, it is here, we go listen,
- 4:47Speaker 5: They're not unbeatable. You've seen enough of Buffalo this season.
- 4:51Speaker 5: They're banged up. Hell, Josh Allen plaid played that game hurt.
- 4:55Speaker 5: He's not one hundred percent. He lost Gabe Davis. He's
- 4:59Speaker 5: losing player is left and right. They're beatable.
- 5:02Speaker 2: This is not wait, come on, no, this isn't you know.
- 5:05Speaker 3: The first thing that I said in the appetizer was
- 5:08Speaker 3: this matchup. Although you're you're scared of the idea that
- 5:13Speaker 3: between him and Stafford, whoever you want to argue, it's
- 5:16Speaker 3: probably Josh Allen. He's the best quarterback left in the postseason.
- 5:23Speaker 3: But this isn't like last year. Well, we entered that
- 5:25Speaker 3: game last season and we all kind of like, this
- 5:28Speaker 3: ain't gonna go. Well, but it's cool. We're here in
- 5:30Speaker 3: the postseason. That's great. That's not the feeling you have
- 5:32Speaker 3: this year. This year, I think you should still expect
- 5:35Speaker 3: to beat Buffalo. I think you should.
- 5:37Speaker 5: If if the Chargers had won in New England, Okay,
- 5:41Speaker 5: which would have looked differently, would have looked differently, right,
- 5:44Speaker 5: and they won, Yeah, we would be equally scared today
- 5:48Speaker 5: as we are with Josh Allen coming to town.
- 5:50Speaker 2: It wouldn't be I would not be. Perspective changes everything
- 5:54Speaker 2: you would be.
- 5:55Speaker 3: But Most was kind of on this for two straight weeks.
- 5:58Speaker 2: I mean, stop, do me a faver here, high hair,
- 6:01Speaker 2: do your things. Just sit there for a second and
- 6:05Speaker 2: listen to what your co host Brett has to say,
- 6:08Speaker 2: and maybe this will puncture that helmet you've got going
- 6:11Speaker 2: on top of your head and actually get to your brain.
- 6:14Speaker 2: Go ahead, Brett.
- 6:15Speaker 3: Now, Most has been on this. He said forever that
- 6:17Speaker 3: he thinks that Buffalo is the worst matchup he has.
- 6:21Speaker 2: Are you fraid you afraid? I'm not seeing I'm afraid. Well, Vick, let.
- 6:25Speaker 5: Me scared, scared little Bill Bill's mafia.
- 6:29Speaker 2: Screw that man. He's worried about his hair. Now since
- 6:32Speaker 2: I said the high he is, yeah, number two, number
- 6:36Speaker 2: two and number two, I've already looked at looked it up.
- 6:39Speaker 2: I mean you can look it up to you. The Broncos,
- 6:41Speaker 2: the Broncos are a home dog, is the number one
- 6:43Speaker 2: seed in the a f C. What does that tell you? Well,
- 6:45Speaker 2: what does it tell you? Listen, I don't deal I'm
- 6:49Speaker 2: not going to today with emotion. I'm not dealing with emotion.
- 6:52Speaker 2: I'm not dealing with your your a little coddling I'm
- 6:54Speaker 2: going to deal with facts, and the facts are Josh Allen,
- 6:57Speaker 2: outside of Matt Stafford on any give these are the
- 7:00Speaker 2: two best quarterbacks by a mile left in.
- 7:02Speaker 5: The Matt Stafford almost lost post season. Yeah, well, you
- 7:07Speaker 5: know what, maybe Carolina is pretty damn good. You ever
- 7:09Speaker 5: think about that, Jack, Maybe the Broncos are pretty good. Well,
- 7:13Speaker 5: I think they are because I see I'm looking at
- 7:15Speaker 5: this game. It's so different than you are. Bringing on, man,
- 7:18Speaker 5: bring it, bring it on, let's going on. I agree,
- 7:21Speaker 5: bring it up.
- 7:22Speaker 2: Don't be scared. You're such a scared little cat. I'm
- 7:26Speaker 2: not scared. I'm just saying, Josh.
- 7:29Speaker 3: North American freddy cat.
- 7:30Speaker 5: I mean, Jesus, Monday morning, you got Josh Allen come
- 7:34Speaker 5: in here.
- 7:35Speaker 2: He's banged up. Buffalo is not that? What's Buffalo? What
- 7:38Speaker 2: have they done?
- 7:39Speaker 3: Buffalo? Buffalo is Look, they're a good team. I don't
- 7:43Speaker 3: know if they're a great team. They have a really
- 7:45Speaker 3: great quarterback. And that's what terrifies people, and it should
- 7:48Speaker 3: like Josh Allen is scary now.
- 7:50Speaker 5: A great pass rush and any team in the league
- 7:53Speaker 5: get on his ass. Let's go.
- 7:54Speaker 3: So Here's like, I have reasons why I kind of
- 7:57Speaker 3: love this matchup and reasons why I hate it the
- 8:00Speaker 3: pretty obvious, and we'll get to that in a second.
- 8:02Speaker 3: I love this because, first of all, it's a revenge game.
- 8:04Speaker 3: How often you get to play the same team in
- 8:06Speaker 3: the playoffs two years in a row, exact. I love
- 8:08Speaker 3: it so that that part of it I really enjoy.
- 8:10Speaker 3: You can throw on the tape from last year and
- 8:12Speaker 3: be like, look what they did to you and motivate
- 8:14Speaker 3: and that sort of thing. Second of all, I think
- 8:18Speaker 3: this game gives you perspective of where you're at as
- 8:21Speaker 3: a franchise. You won fourteen games this year, You're the
- 8:24Speaker 3: number one seed in the AFC. Are people still skeptical
- 8:28Speaker 3: on what kind of team the Broncos are. I think
- 8:30Speaker 3: the answer is yes, and I think it probably should
- 8:32Speaker 3: be because there are very obvious flaws within this team
- 8:36Speaker 3: that you've been wondering all year. Is that gonna be
- 8:38Speaker 3: something that that's going to kill you in the postseason? Well,
- 8:41Speaker 3: I think Buffalo is a pretty good team that can
- 8:43Speaker 3: exploit that. It also gives you perspective on your quarterback
- 8:48Speaker 3: when you have a matchup that's gonna be the Bills,
- 8:50Speaker 3: where a lot of that's gonna deal with Josh Allen,
- 8:52Speaker 3: how good he is? Well, how does bo Nick stack
- 8:55Speaker 3: up on the other side and can he keep up
- 8:57Speaker 3: with it? But it's just that's what Vic mentioned. I think,
- 9:01Speaker 3: as good as Josh Allen is, if you have one
- 9:06Speaker 3: sort of secret thing in your bag that you can
- 9:08Speaker 3: pull out that can neutralize it, it's an insane pass
- 9:11Speaker 3: rush that if you get pressure on him and you
- 9:14Speaker 3: get him uncomfortable. I don't know what the CounterPunch the
- 9:17Speaker 3: Bills have is. I know James Cook's a good running back.
- 9:20Speaker 3: I'm not fearing a two hundred yard game out of him.
- 9:23Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be a lot of If Josh
- 9:25Speaker 3: Allen is comfortable, you lose. If not, you win.
- 9:28Speaker 5: Comment from the twitch feed I saw it, devastated quote.
- 9:33Speaker 5: I swear Vic puts absolutely zero thought into anything related
- 9:37Speaker 5: to the show and what he says. What have the
- 9:39Speaker 5: Bills done? Lol?
- 9:40Speaker 2: What a dumb take. Nailed it? What is your response?
- 9:46Speaker 2: Exactly devastated?
- 9:48Speaker 5: What do you want me to do? What do you
- 9:50Speaker 5: want the Broncos to do? So the Bills won and
- 9:52Speaker 5: Josh Allen's come to town? In devastated world, everybody just runs,
- 9:57Speaker 5: run to the hills, run away, devastate, Grab your dog,
- 10:01Speaker 5: grab your puppy, grab all the belonging to your house,
- 10:04Speaker 5: and run because Josh Allen's coming to town.
- 10:07Speaker 2: Oh my god, I wouldn't you know what. I wouldn't
- 10:09Speaker 2: have to grab my dogs because they could run on
- 10:11Speaker 2: their own. You might have to grab your little your
- 10:13Speaker 2: little scroungy little something guns. You might have to my dogs.
- 10:16Speaker 2: But I'd say, come on, boy, let's go.
- 10:18Speaker 5: And then hell's wrong, girl, Please, it's a football game.
- 10:22Speaker 5: Win the damn game. I mean, you guys act like
- 10:27Speaker 5: this game's over because they're one point favorites.
- 10:31Speaker 3: It's overpack, But.
- 10:32Speaker 2: I don't think. I don't think anybody's acting like anything
- 10:35Speaker 2: is over. Vic. I'm telling you this is this devastated.
- 10:37Speaker 2: This guy's devastated. Is well, his name is devastated, so
- 10:41Speaker 2: he probably thinks he's devastating terms all the time. Oh,
- 10:45Speaker 2: they're out of they're out of butter at the store.
- 10:47Speaker 2: It's devastating. Okay, So there.
- 10:50Speaker 5: See how many Bills players went down in that game.
- 10:52Speaker 5: That was a hard hitting, physical game. They're gonna be
- 10:54Speaker 5: banged up. They have a short week to prepare. The
- 10:57Speaker 5: Broncos have all the advantages. They're at home, let's go.
- 11:00Speaker 3: I think it's totally fair to have a fear of
- 11:04Speaker 3: a very very good quarterback. I think that's fair. Now, again,
- 11:08Speaker 3: the Bills aren't like every other team. It's funny that
- 11:11Speaker 3: you say, what have they done at least in recent history.
- 11:14Speaker 3: You can say that about every team that's left in
- 11:16Speaker 3: the tournament right now, like every single one is that, well,
- 11:18Speaker 3: what have they done recently? Well, a couple of playoff appearances, whatever.
- 11:23Speaker 5: Well, I tell you what, if it's anything like some
- 11:26Speaker 5: of the other games we've seen this weekend, it's gonna
- 11:28Speaker 5: come down to the final drive to one of these teams.
- 11:31Speaker 5: You know what, I trust the Broncos because they've done it.
- 11:36Speaker 5: Josh Allen's done it too.
- 11:37Speaker 2: But so the Broncos.
- 11:39Speaker 5: They've won close games, they've rallied late, they they did
- 11:43Speaker 5: what Chicago did the other night. They've done all that.
- 11:47Speaker 5: You should trust this team.
- 11:49Speaker 3: The thing about Alan that is I think an added
- 11:54Speaker 3: factor here that can make him even more scary than usual.
- 11:59Speaker 3: Josh Allen has always had when he's entered the postseason,
- 12:03Speaker 3: impediments that were stout in front of him. He's had
- 12:08Speaker 3: to go through Mahomes or he's had to go through
- 12:10Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson or he's had to go through Burrow and
- 12:13Speaker 3: none of that stands in his way. Right now, He's
- 12:17Speaker 3: probably thinking to himself, if I'm going to come out
- 12:20Speaker 3: as the AFC champion as far as a quarterback to
- 12:23Speaker 3: quarterback matchup, is there any better scenario I could have
- 12:26Speaker 3: laid out than the one that's in front of me
- 12:27Speaker 3: right now, which is he has to get through Trevor
- 12:30Speaker 3: Lawrence bo Nix and probably Drake May on the way
- 12:33Speaker 3: to his Super Bowl. That ain't close to what he's
- 12:37Speaker 3: used to going through. And again, he hasn't had that
- 12:41Speaker 3: total success yet, understood, But he's probably super motivated right now, like,
- 12:46Speaker 3: if it's not gonna be this year, then when the
- 12:48Speaker 3: hell is it going to be for me?
- 12:49Speaker 5: Sure, I'm sure there's motivation there. I'm sure the Buffalo
- 12:52Speaker 5: Bills are saying, this is an opportunity to make all
- 12:57Speaker 5: those nightmare performances, to make them go away. The Broncos
- 13:03Speaker 5: are at home with two weeks rest, with revenge on
- 13:08Speaker 5: their minds, playing a team that shall lacked.
- 13:10Speaker 2: Them one year ago. What more do you want? Yeah?
- 13:15Speaker 3: I love it.
- 13:16Speaker 5: Calm down, people like devastated? Are you cowards out there?
- 13:23Speaker 5: What do you want to run?
- 13:24Speaker 2: Play the game. That's why they play these games.
- 13:28Speaker 3: I think it's wait, wait a minute, though, this is
- 13:31Speaker 3: what's weird.
- 13:31Speaker 2: I agree with you and that look at let me
- 13:34Speaker 2: look at the lyrics or something real quick.
- 13:35Speaker 3: I think it's healthy to have a little bit of
- 13:37Speaker 3: fear about playing this game against that guy.
- 13:39Speaker 5: I think that's totally fine. Sure, sure, but I mean,
- 13:43Speaker 5: like some of the walls that are being built.
- 13:45Speaker 3: Oh my god, Joshua, what are you saying?
- 13:52Speaker 2: What did you say you were doing? Dude? The Broncos
- 13:56Speaker 2: getting led the boss. The Boss wanted to separate us
- 13:59Speaker 2: today because maybe there's a little something going around, and
- 14:03Speaker 2: I don't know what it is. Everybody's getting the plague whatever,
- 14:06Speaker 2: play with prairie dogs. I don't know what it is.
- 14:08Speaker 2: Excuse me, still have this thing going on. It's early morning.
- 14:13Speaker 2: But it's good that I'm separated from Vic today because
- 14:16Speaker 2: first of all, his hair is stupid, and I just
- 14:18Speaker 2: I can't stop staring at that dumb hair. And second
- 14:21Speaker 2: of all, you're dude, you are going way, way way
- 14:25Speaker 2: to an extreme of your own. I don't think anybody's
- 14:28Speaker 2: saying that they're afraid and they're running for the hills
- 14:32Speaker 2: and take grabbing the babies and the doggies. And what
- 14:35Speaker 2: are you saying?
- 14:35Speaker 5: The game is the posh box, The game is said,
- 14:37Speaker 5: I'm not here understood to retigate a game that took
- 14:40Speaker 5: place yesterday. The Bills are being the Bills are coming
- 14:43Speaker 5: to Denver the end.
- 14:45Speaker 2: Let's go. What's your problem? Why is everybody so focused
- 14:49Speaker 2: on well he should?
- 14:50Speaker 5: I wish the Chargers of I mean, it's it is
- 14:53Speaker 5: what it is. You can't change what happened yesterday.
- 14:55Speaker 2: Okay, you know I I'm looking at this song. There's
- 14:58Speaker 2: a song by Billy Joel called I Go to Extra
- 15:00Speaker 2: Teams Fro nineteen eighty. I don't care about your musical reference. No,
- 15:03Speaker 2: I don't care. Let me let me explain. I hate
- 15:06Speaker 2: that song. I mean, I absolutely hate it. What I
- 15:09Speaker 2: was going through. Is there a good lyric in here
- 15:11Speaker 2: that I could equate to victs just taking one little
- 15:14Speaker 2: thing saying, hey, Josh Allen's pretty good. No, I'm not
- 15:21Speaker 2: referencing you. I'm not referencing. I'm just saying I'm referencing.
- 15:26Speaker 5: All these freddy cats out there who suddenly think, because
- 15:30Speaker 5: Josh Allen is coming to town that the end of
- 15:32Speaker 5: the world is near. I don't care. You had to
- 15:35Speaker 5: play somebody, it didn't matter any court, name a quarterback.
- 15:39Speaker 2: You would have been, Oh, that's gonna be tough.
- 15:41Speaker 5: If it were the Chargers, there'd be a lot of
- 15:43Speaker 5: people saying the same thing. It doesn't matter. You have
- 15:46Speaker 5: to play and win the game. The Broncos earned home field,
- 15:50Speaker 5: now use it.
- 15:51Speaker 2: If if Aron and company were coming into town, or
- 15:55Speaker 2: or even CG, I wouldn't be as nearly as fearful
- 15:58Speaker 2: as I would with Alan or Herbert or or Trevor Lawrence.
- 16:03Speaker 5: I can't wait, you know what I can't I can't
- 16:05Speaker 5: wait either, let's go. I can't wait for those those
- 16:08Speaker 5: cheesy Buffalo Bill's Mafia fools to jump around the stadium
- 16:14Speaker 5: with their stupid tables injuring themselves like fools, jumping off
- 16:17Speaker 5: our v's like idiots. I can't wait to see them
- 16:20Speaker 5: go home crying.
- 16:21Speaker 2: I can't wait. But I think you look at me,
- 16:24Speaker 2: I'm gonna jump off an I think the point of
- 16:28Speaker 2: all this is that I looked at the lyrics and
- 16:29Speaker 2: they suck. And that song is his lame. That song
- 16:32Speaker 2: is as lame as I remember it in my head.
- 16:34Speaker 2: So you know what point taking, point taking.
- 16:37Speaker 3: I don't comment on appearances on this show either, But Vic,
- 16:40Speaker 3: have you ever done this before? Have you ever done
- 16:42Speaker 3: the old Travolta put the comb in your mouth and
- 16:45Speaker 3: then do a little swipe thing. Have you ever done
- 16:47Speaker 3: that move? I've never had the hair to do it,
- 16:51Speaker 3: and you guys have their hair.
- 16:53Speaker 2: What's wrong with my hair? No?
- 16:54Speaker 3: I think it looks fine.
- 16:55Speaker 2: He's referenced my hair twice.
- 16:56Speaker 3: I'm at the very beginning of the show. It's stuck
- 16:59Speaker 3: up like a cocktail. You have to you look like
- 17:02Speaker 3: Cameron Diaz exactly.
- 17:03Speaker 2: You look like something about it's fine. So it's fine
- 17:06Speaker 2: because you matched it down.
- 17:07Speaker 5: Well, you know my I'd rather have my hair than
- 17:10Speaker 5: your thin, brittle crap that they operated on and put
- 17:14Speaker 5: it together for you.
- 17:19Speaker 2: What that means?
- 17:21Speaker 3: Vic entered the show with two fists out there like
- 17:24Speaker 3: the Notre Dame fighting Irish mascot, and he's absolutely But.
- 17:28Speaker 2: I didn't expect this tone.
- 17:29Speaker 5: I thought we were going to start this show with
- 17:31Speaker 5: hey Man all right, Big Week, an opportunity for the
- 17:34Speaker 5: Broncos to prove it, an opportunity to gain some revenge
- 17:37Speaker 5: against a team that throttled them a year ago. Let's
- 17:40Speaker 5: go and and it's the opposite. You backed into this
- 17:43Speaker 5: like a bunch of pansies.
- 17:45Speaker 3: Were you referencing here?
- 17:46Speaker 5: Not you pansy right there with the brittle hair?
- 17:51Speaker 3: What did I do your brittled hair, Pansy, the slow
- 17:57Speaker 3: elderly man. All I say it's wrong, Tom.
- 18:03Speaker 2: Do I think the Broncos could win? Yeah, I'm a
- 18:06Speaker 2: little bit perplexed, and a little bit I don't know them.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Being a home dog bothers me. It does. Maybe they'll
- 18:15Speaker 2: use that as great. I'm just telling you, want to
- 18:19Speaker 2: bring on all the batties great. I'm just telling you
- 18:22Speaker 2: that I think, in my opinion, and I've been saying
- 18:24Speaker 2: it now for two weeks, this is the worst matchup
- 18:27Speaker 2: for the Broncos in my opinion. We'll find out it
- 18:30Speaker 2: may not be. It may not be worse at all.
- 18:32Speaker 2: They may slaughter their butts, they may absolutely drill the
- 18:35Speaker 2: Buffalo bills. And I'm gonna tell you something. I'm just saying,
- 18:38Speaker 2: this is the one I didn't want. All right, So
- 18:40Speaker 2: let me ask you this.
- 18:41Speaker 5: If it were Jacksonville, and I know that a lot
- 18:44Speaker 5: of things, if Jacksonville were the team instead of Buffalo,
- 18:47Speaker 5: would you feel any better, Yeah, a little bit.
- 18:50Speaker 2: Not anything. You get immediate revenge, I would, but I'm.
- 18:54Speaker 5: Talking about the quality of opponent. Would you feel any better.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Then by you? But then by your logic, the team
- 18:59Speaker 2: that came in here through weeks ago, I kicked your ass,
- 19:01Speaker 2: just lost it home to that team. Okay, So what
- 19:04Speaker 2: do you follow that, that logic, that line of thinking.
- 19:08Speaker 5: Most sometimes the better team doesn't win.
- 19:11Speaker 2: Sometimes that happens. Okay.
- 19:15Speaker 5: In twenty thirteen, was was Were the Broncos better than
- 19:18Speaker 5: the Baltimore Ravens that season?
- 19:19Speaker 2: Damn right they were?
- 19:20Speaker 5: Who won that game in the playoffs Baltimore Ravens did.
- 19:23Speaker 5: Were you afraid of Baltimore when they came to town?
- 19:25Speaker 2: Were you going, Oh my god.
- 19:27Speaker 3: Not at all?
- 19:28Speaker 2: Nope? Were you doing that? Nope, not at all. Okay,
- 19:31Speaker 2: things happen, it's sports.
- 19:32Speaker 5: Let it play out. Everybody, calm down. I love the
- 19:34Speaker 5: fact that the Broncos are dogs in this game. It's
- 19:36Speaker 5: a great source of motivation, just right there.
- 19:39Speaker 2: I love it.
- 19:40Speaker 5: That can be their small market mantra, the same thing
- 19:43Speaker 5: that Jacksonville used. By the way that small market's done. Uh,
- 19:47Speaker 5: don't worry about it, man, Let's go take these Bills, Mafia, fools,
- 19:52Speaker 5: and Let's maul, Let's go.
- 19:53Speaker 3: It's a rally house Football Monday and Altitude Sports Radio
- 19:56Speaker 3: ninety two five rally house shop every team in town.
- 19:58Speaker 3: I offer a challenge to all of our listeners out there.
- 20:01Speaker 3: Find somebody that you're upset with today and call them
- 20:04Speaker 3: a brittle hair pansy.
- 20:08Speaker 5: I mean, I'm reading some of these texts. I mean,
- 20:14Speaker 5: first of all, the Broncos are healthy again. I saw
- 20:17Speaker 5: Drake Green, I saw a lot of those guys. A
- 20:19Speaker 5: lot of those guys went to the Broncos game. They're ready, man,
- 20:22Speaker 5: and they can't wait. A lot of the Broncos went
- 20:25Speaker 5: to the Broncos game, Nuggets game. Well, hey, it's good
- 20:29Speaker 5: going to the Broncos game because they're healthy. They're healthy,
- 20:33Speaker 5: they've waited. There's going to be a lot of anxiety,
- 20:38Speaker 5: especially when you don't play what seems like forever right.
- 20:40Speaker 5: There's gonna be anxiety. It's gonna be hard, but that's fine.
- 20:45Speaker 2: That's playoff football. That's the beauty of it.
- 20:48Speaker 5: Josh Allen is a witch. We know this, but he's
- 20:50Speaker 5: beatable because we've seen him get beat before.
- 20:52Speaker 3: Talk a lot more about this as we go along today?
- 20:55Speaker 3: Do want to talk about the other games happen? There's
- 20:56Speaker 3: something about wildcard weekend where every game is just like
- 21:00Speaker 3: down to the wire last second. Got to make a
- 21:02Speaker 3: play that Nuggets and Abs over the weekend, the demolishing
- 21:08Speaker 3: and the illegal activity that Kurt Signetty put on Oregon

- 21:36Speaker 7: and the entire team.
- 21:37Speaker 2: Thank you. Man.
- 21:39Speaker 3: She went to the Mark Moser school of asking questions,
- 21:43Speaker 3: which is just I'm gonna say something and I'm gonna
- 21:45Speaker 3: stop talking.
- 21:46Speaker 2: I'm not even gonna ask a question.
- 21:47Speaker 5: I'm gonna make a statement for a minute straight. Hey,
- 21:49Speaker 5: what do you think about all the nerds out there?
- 21:51Speaker 5: Because they're all over they're online. Who ripped that lady
- 21:54Speaker 5: for not being a journalist, and for you know, for
- 21:57Speaker 5: all you nerds out there who call yourself journalists.
- 22:00Speaker 2: And blah blah blah. I want to remind you something,
- 22:03Speaker 2: just just just real quick. This is sports. This is
- 22:09Speaker 2: fake reports.
- 22:12Speaker 3: That was a reporter to Liam Cohen after the loss.
- 22:14Speaker 5: By the way, that that's not a it's not a
- 22:18Speaker 5: reporter asking a senator about ice.
- 22:22Speaker 2: That's a that's a reporter asking a football coach about football.
- 22:26Speaker 3: You you know this about me, vic, I think the
- 22:29Speaker 3: journalism crowd in sports is way too stuffy.
- 22:32Speaker 2: Oh I can't stand it.
- 22:33Speaker 3: I I also think that's a little weird.
- 22:36Speaker 2: It's weird. That's very very wired. It's weird.
- 22:38Speaker 5: I'd be I'd be sitting there going okay, But at
- 22:41Speaker 5: the same time, who cares at.
- 22:43Speaker 2: The end of the day, big deal.
- 22:45Speaker 5: So the lady goes off and credits the coach and
- 22:48Speaker 5: gives him a pat on the back, and everybody loses it,
- 22:51Speaker 5: saying how on professional?
- 22:52Speaker 2: Oh, shut up, it's just sports. Shut the hell up.
- 22:56Speaker 5: Get back to your go back and play your fantasy
- 23:00Speaker 5: sport and shut up.
- 23:01Speaker 3: It's a stark contrast from something I remember back in
- 23:05Speaker 3: two thousand and nine. Do you guys know Rob Parker,
- 23:08Speaker 3: is he still on it nights?
- 23:10Speaker 2: Well?
- 23:11Speaker 5: Us, he still does the odd couple he does it.
- 23:13Speaker 5: I think there's a new combo he does it with.
- 23:15Speaker 3: So I'll give you a contrast between questions after a
- 23:19Speaker 3: tough loss. That was her statement. I guess.
- 23:23Speaker 2: Uh.
- 23:24Speaker 3: Rob Parker asked then Lyon's head coach because he worked
- 23:27Speaker 3: in Detroit, Rod Marinelli after they went Owen sixteen. Rod
- 23:31Speaker 3: Mennelli's defensive coordinator is the guy by the name of
- 23:33Speaker 3: Joe Barry who's been the league for a long time.
- 23:36Speaker 3: Joe Barry is his son in law married to his daughter.
- 23:39Speaker 3: Rob Parker asked Rod Marinelli after he went oh in
- 23:42Speaker 3: sixteen the postgame press conference, do you wish your daughter
- 23:45Speaker 3: married a better defensive coordinator? A little different, different tone
- 23:53Speaker 3: than that one, But I do want to talk about
- 23:56Speaker 3: some of these games.
- 23:57Speaker 5: But real quick, Yeah, your day is bothered because some
- 24:00Speaker 5: lady went crazy and just complimented the coach and suddenly
- 24:05Speaker 5: that puts a black mark on journalism and it ends
- 24:08Speaker 5: the world as we know it.
- 24:09Speaker 2: You got problems, big deal.
- 24:14Speaker 3: Uh, Let me ask you something about that, Vic, because
- 24:16Speaker 3: you said something after one of these games that I
- 24:20Speaker 3: have the opposite reaction towards Packers Bears, and you mentioned
- 24:26Speaker 3: it earlier. I totally agree, moj Would you agree with this?
- 24:30Speaker 3: The Bears feel a lot like the Broncos this year
- 24:35Speaker 3: in that they don't do anything for like two or
- 24:38Speaker 3: three quarters, and then the fourth quarter hits and they
- 24:41Speaker 3: mount this comeback that makes teams feel really nervous and
- 24:44Speaker 3: get really tight, and they beat teams that way.
- 24:47Speaker 2: Okay, listen, I can't. I cannot continue on this segment
- 24:50Speaker 2: like this. I don't feel like we can go around
- 24:53Speaker 2: the league and talk about games unless we have our tune.
- 24:56Speaker 2: I just feel it goes hand in hand. I feel
- 24:58Speaker 2: like it's appropriate. I feel like it's necessary.
- 25:01Speaker 3: Okay, we aren't gonna get through all the games when
- 25:03Speaker 3: we can talk about That's fine. You want to this
- 25:05Speaker 3: that music underneath?
- 25:06Speaker 2: Cool? Yeah? Okay, now now I'm ready to talk football, baby,
- 25:09Speaker 2: come on, let's go.
- 25:10Speaker 3: The Bears are just like the Broncos except one thing.
- 25:13Speaker 3: They don't have an elite anything like the Broncos have
- 25:15Speaker 3: an elite defense that they can lean on. Caleb Williams
- 25:21Speaker 3: will make the dumbest throws, but then at the end
- 25:23Speaker 3: of the game will roll out to his left, a
- 25:25Speaker 3: crossbody put one in the bucket. The Colston level on
- 25:28Speaker 3: that reel.
- 25:29Speaker 2: Like, I'm soused. How do you explain? How do you
- 25:33Speaker 2: explain that fourth quarter in the postseason?
- 25:36Speaker 5: How combination of Green Bay falling apart and Caleb Williams
- 25:39Speaker 5: making all the necessary throws?
- 25:41Speaker 2: Yeah? What? What? What blows my mind is that it
- 25:45Speaker 2: feels like he's not making any of those throws. He's
- 25:47Speaker 2: missing those throws, and then the fourth quarter rules around
- 25:51Speaker 2: it and he makes all the throws. How is that?
- 25:54Speaker 2: How is that possible?
- 25:55Speaker 3: I don't know, but they've been doing this all year.
- 25:58Speaker 3: But vic you said after the game, because you said
- 26:01Speaker 3: you basically back off on the reporter lady from Jacksonville,
- 26:07Speaker 3: I feel the exact same way about anybody complaining about
- 26:11Speaker 3: what Ben Johnson did in the post game. Now, keep
- 26:12Speaker 3: in mind, I hate both of these teams, between the
- 26:15Speaker 3: Packers and the Bears. My wife said, who you're rooting for?
- 26:17Speaker 3: And I said, a meat here. I don't want any
- 26:18Speaker 3: of these teams to win. But Ben Johnson did the
- 26:22Speaker 3: quick handshake after the game. I'm like, whatever, don't care.
- 26:25Speaker 3: I've never really cared about the handshake stuff after a game,
- 26:27Speaker 3: and then he gets to the locker room and the
- 26:29Speaker 3: first thing he says is bleep the Packers. And part
- 26:31Speaker 3: of me is like, I would love if my coach
- 26:34Speaker 3: did that. And they're they're calling him classless. I'm like
- 26:36Speaker 3: their rivals. Okay, I mean, let me let me step
- 26:41Speaker 3: back a little bit. I don't care what he says
- 26:42Speaker 3: about the opposing team. I just think that kind of
- 26:45Speaker 3: stuff will come back to bite you at some point.
- 26:47Speaker 2: That's all, well, this remember the grand scheme of things.
- 26:49Speaker 5: Why they're complete fool acting like a like a guy
- 26:52Speaker 5: who's never want a camera.
- 26:54Speaker 2: Why is there a camera in there at that moment anyway?
- 26:56Speaker 5: Because they wanted out there. That's why that was a
- 26:58Speaker 5: team camera.
- 26:59Speaker 2: They want that out there. That wasn't like that's a
- 27:04Speaker 2: team can camera.
- 27:05Speaker 3: He remember though, this was set up in February of
- 27:08Speaker 3: last year. Ben Johnson took the job and at his
- 27:11Speaker 3: opening press conference, you remember what he said, you called
- 27:14Speaker 3: by name? He said, I kind of enjoy beating Matt
- 27:16Speaker 3: Lafleur twice a year after after I saw.
- 27:20Speaker 5: The handshake, which was okay, it was pretty petty, but whatever, whatever,
- 27:24Speaker 5: And I know Lafleur has done it to him too,
- 27:26Speaker 5: But whatever, if you guys want to act that way,
- 27:27Speaker 5: I don't care.
- 27:28Speaker 2: What is the source of that feud? Where did it start?
- 27:32Speaker 2: Because it obviously started before he got to Chicago.
- 27:36Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean, he was the OC in
- 27:37Speaker 3: Detroit for years and they were beating up the Packers.
- 27:39Speaker 3: I don't I don't know. I have no idea. But
- 27:43Speaker 3: maybe it was like his opening press conference motion. She
- 27:45Speaker 3: was just trying to get like pack or Bears fans
- 27:48Speaker 3: to be like, yeah, screw the Packers when he calls
- 27:51Speaker 3: and listen.
- 27:53Speaker 2: Whether it's fake motivation or real motivation, it's motivation, right,
- 27:57Speaker 2: it's working. Whether you have to Michael Jordan. Yeah, Well,
- 28:02Speaker 2: do you have to pull a Michael Jordan and take
- 28:03Speaker 2: offence at every little thing that you shouldn't take offense
- 28:06Speaker 2: at but use it as motivation? What's wrong with that?
- 28:08Speaker 2: And by the way, what's wrong with creating a heated
- 28:10Speaker 2: rivalry again between these two franchises. I can't you talk
- 28:14Speaker 2: about being soft and run into the hills with your dog?
- 28:17Speaker 1: Wait oh, he said Blake the Packers.
- 28:24Speaker 2: I don't care. I don't care what he said in
- 28:25Speaker 2: the locker room.
- 28:26Speaker 5: I just thought the handshake was pretty You know you're
- 28:28Speaker 5: a guy who watches hockey, and after a playoff series,
- 28:30Speaker 5: these guys go up and they shake hands and they
- 28:32Speaker 5: look at each other in the eye and say good game. Right,
- 28:34Speaker 5: that's a hockey mentality, right, is that.
- 28:36Speaker 2: What took place on that field? But sometimes they do
- 28:38Speaker 2: it through gritted chief. But do they do it? It
- 28:41Speaker 2: doesn't nice. Do they do it? Do they do it
- 28:43Speaker 2: in series? It's fine? Do they do it though? Yeah?
- 28:46Speaker 3: Okay, So the early game on Saturday was the Rams
- 28:50Speaker 3: and Panthers, and I've just I've seen this story. I
- 28:55Speaker 3: know it well enough. Rams are down four with like
- 28:58Speaker 3: two minutes to go, and I almost Afford is gonna
- 29:00Speaker 3: put him the end zone. The question is how much
- 29:02Speaker 3: time is is Carolina gonna have left? Like to me,
- 29:06Speaker 3: I don't know if there's another and I mean this sincerely,
- 29:09Speaker 3: even with Mahomes and everybody else in the league, I
- 29:11Speaker 3: don't know if there's a quarterback I would take end
- 29:14Speaker 3: of game need a touchdown more than Matthew Stafford. He
- 29:18Speaker 3: does it so often.
- 29:19Speaker 2: That catch by the tight end in.
- 29:22Speaker 5: The marketability to get his feet across the goal line
- 29:25Speaker 5: in two steps was phenomenal. First of all, the past
- 29:28Speaker 5: was at a place where only the tight end could
- 29:30Speaker 5: get it. But to go up and get it and
- 29:32Speaker 5: then tiptoe the remaining two yards into the end zone
- 29:36Speaker 5: was I mean, that's just silly stuff.
- 29:39Speaker 3: What do we think of Carolina moving forward?
- 29:41Speaker 5: I like, dude, I am happy for Bryce Young. Remember
- 29:44Speaker 5: when Bryce Young was a bust?
- 29:45Speaker 2: Remember that?
- 29:46Speaker 5: Remember when he came to Denver and this guy can't play? Yeah,
- 29:51Speaker 5: and he looked good, I.
- 29:52Speaker 2: Thought in that game.
- 29:53Speaker 5: And frankly, to be honest, if you replayed that game,
- 29:56Speaker 5: it seemed like the Rams were quote playing with their food.
- 29:58Speaker 5: They could have ended that game several times. They could
- 30:00Speaker 5: have blown them out. They could have they kept making
- 30:02Speaker 5: dumb mistakes. You know, I think going forward early in
- 30:05Speaker 5: the game to put the whatever, they could have ended it,
- 30:08Speaker 5: and they did.
- 30:09Speaker 2: But that's that's what the that's what the Rams have done.
- 30:13Speaker 2: They play with their food a little bit, They lose
- 30:15Speaker 2: games they shouldn't. They do some silly things. And then
- 30:18Speaker 2: Brett they have the ability to, oh there's two minutes left, Yeah,
- 30:24Speaker 2: seven plays, seventy one yards.
- 30:25Speaker 3: Touch just like if they if they need something, they
- 30:28Speaker 3: get it.
- 30:29Speaker 2: Yeah. And Stafford is still he's still that guy. And
- 30:34Speaker 2: as long as you have Stafford, I don't even care
- 30:36Speaker 2: about Williams running the football because he didn't do it great.
- 30:40Speaker 2: But as long as you have Nicola and Adams and
- 30:42Speaker 2: now I guess this have to worry about Kobe Parkinson.
- 30:45Speaker 2: You have to worry how about the first drive?
- 30:49Speaker 5: Hookah hookah, pookah bam bam maam.
- 30:53Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 30:54Speaker 1: Uh.
- 30:54Speaker 3: By the way, we're gonna need a lot more time
- 30:56Speaker 3: to discuss this, But I just gotta tell you, I
- 31:01Speaker 3: don't think I've ever felt that a team that's had
- 31:05Speaker 3: the amount of success that this one has had, that
- 31:08Speaker 3: has Super Bowls, and I felt like they're a fraud
- 31:10Speaker 3: the entire time. Explain like, how do I how can
- 31:15Speaker 3: I feel the way I feel about Philly because.
- 31:17Speaker 5: They didn't have the offense. And this is what gives
- 31:19Speaker 5: you pause about the Broncos. I guarantee every Bronco fan
- 31:22Speaker 5: out there watching that Philly game was thinking the same thing. Man,
- 31:26Speaker 5: this offense just three and out here and then it explodes,
- 31:29Speaker 5: and in three and out here, it's just like a
- 31:31Speaker 5: car that won't start all the time. That's what it
- 31:33Speaker 5: felt like watching them. They don't have the offense to
- 31:36Speaker 5: compliment the team, and in crunch time, the offense did
- 31:40Speaker 5: not produce.
- 31:40Speaker 2: That's what scares you also, But go ahead, well, I
- 31:45Speaker 2: was just gonna say, I'm gonna give credit to the
- 31:48Speaker 2: forty nine ers too. Oh. I feel Kyle Shanahan must
- 31:51Speaker 2: be an incredibly good coach, I think. I mean, he
- 31:55Speaker 2: went twelve and five with that roster that guys were
- 31:57Speaker 2: in and out all year long. He just lost his
- 31:59Speaker 2: super start tied end again yesterday, and they still find
- 32:02Speaker 2: a way to win. I mean, I feel like that
- 32:05Speaker 2: franchise is cursed. I mean, I feel terrible for them
- 32:09Speaker 2: because they play good football and they just lose dudes
- 32:14Speaker 2: all over.
- 32:14Speaker 3: That shotgun blast and the right calf of Kittle was
- 32:18Speaker 3: just brutal to watch because he knew it immediately, Like, oh,
- 32:21Speaker 3: there he goes the Achilles. He's not only gone for
- 32:23Speaker 3: this year, probably next year too. But you're so right,
- 32:27Speaker 3: Shanahan is. I mean, he's probably coach of the year.
- 32:31Speaker 3: But I remember when Aj Brown got in the face
- 32:34Speaker 3: of Sirianni on the sideline, and there's a lot of
- 32:37Speaker 3: people that will tell you, oh, that's just two guys
- 32:39Speaker 3: being competitive, and I go with him, it's different. Sorry,
- 32:42Speaker 3: he's not He's not granted the benefit of the doubt
- 32:45Speaker 3: with me considering all of the issues he's raised. For
- 32:48Speaker 3: a team as successful as Philly to feel like they
- 32:51Speaker 3: are one little spark away from that locker room imploding
- 32:54Speaker 3: for like three straight years, it's felt that way. It's
- 32:57Speaker 3: the most bizarre thing for successful franchise I've ever seen.
- 33:01Speaker 2: And it feels like everyone vi Vick, feels like everyone
- 33:04Speaker 2: has their own agenda. Yes, it's just kind of weird.
- 33:07Speaker 2: And they are in a tough spot with AJ Brown.
- 33:09Speaker 5: I don't know if you guys saw this, but his
- 33:11Speaker 5: dead money, his dead cat money is insane. Yeah, it's
- 33:14Speaker 5: not like they can just let him go and say
- 33:15Speaker 5: bye bye. There's a lot of money they would owe
- 33:18Speaker 5: him for receiver. Having it go into that kind of debt,
- 33:20Speaker 5: that's not gonna be easy.
- 33:21Speaker 3: Look, they have a very smart front office. Howie Roseman
- 33:24Speaker 3: is arguably the best GM in all of sports. Like
- 33:26Speaker 3: he's really really good, better than San Presti sure, but
- 33:30Speaker 3: he's up there. The point is he made the dumb
- 33:33Speaker 3: decision of thinking, if I pay him, he'll be happy.
- 33:37Speaker 3: I don't know if it's possible to make AJ Brown happy.
- 33:40Speaker 3: I don't know if it is. He could have a
- 33:41Speaker 3: two thousand yard season and be like, why didn't I
- 33:43Speaker 3: have fifteen more catches this year?
- 33:46Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 33:46Speaker 3: And by the way, for that guy to do all
- 33:48Speaker 3: that complaining and have two critical drops in that game
- 33:51Speaker 3: on third down is wild.
- 33:55Speaker 2: In his I can't believe I'm saying this in his
- 33:58Speaker 2: defense a little bit due that yesterday in Philly.
- 34:01Speaker 5: Catch Okay, okay, that ball that ball on the on
- 34:06Speaker 5: the game, which one the one over the top or
- 34:09Speaker 5: or the one down the right down the middle of
- 34:10Speaker 5: the field when they needed down the game. You cannot
- 34:13Speaker 5: drop that football. You cannot drop that football that hit
- 34:17Speaker 5: him right in the hands.
- 34:18Speaker 2: Yeah, So look that one, that one you're right about.
- 34:21Speaker 2: But the one down the right sideline that he had
- 34:24Speaker 2: to stretch like, I'm just saying, I wasn't there, but
- 34:27Speaker 2: I saw that wind. I saw the punts that were
- 34:29Speaker 2: straight up in the air and going back over guys heads.
- 34:31Speaker 2: It was insane.
- 34:32Speaker 3: So a lot more to get to with these playoff games.
- 34:34Speaker 3: Do you want to talk about the Indiana game as well?
- 34:36Speaker 3: But the Nuggets and Avs over the weekend, I think
- 34:38Speaker 3: overall a really good weekend for both teams. We'll get
- 34:40Speaker 3: to it next.
- 34:41Speaker 2: You talk about being soft and running into the hills
- 34:43Speaker 2: with your dog.
- 34:44Speaker 5: Wait, maybe word of them.
- 34:48Speaker 3: All right, just before I get to the abs and
- 34:49Speaker 3: nuggets from over the weekend, I forgot to play this year.
- 34:52Speaker 3: Talking about the Eagles, here's how their fans are taking it.
- 34:57Speaker 3: This is from Brianna Smith of six ABC in Philly.
- 35:02Speaker 3: She talked to a young fan after the game.
- 35:05Speaker 8: Yes, this was a huge letdown.
- 35:06Speaker 3: This is my Christmas present and I.
- 35:07Speaker 2: Got a loss.
- 35:08Speaker 3: Oh no, you probably would have rather had Cole homies.
- 35:11Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 35:12Speaker 8: Probably. I'm feeling two of two things. A. I want
- 35:14Speaker 8: a J. Brown packing his bags and I want him
- 35:17Speaker 8: somewhere else that is not here. I love you, AJ,
- 35:19Speaker 8: but like you can't make those jobs in that game.
- 35:23Speaker 8: And I also want Kevin Patula flipping burgers at like
- 35:26Speaker 8: the local McDonald's or something. I don't care.
- 35:28Speaker 4: Why do you say that.
- 35:29Speaker 8: Whenever he's an offensive coordinator, it's like he's flipping burgers.
- 35:33Speaker 8: One half he's cooking and the other half is completely raw.
- 35:38Speaker 2: He needs a show.
- 35:41Speaker 3: That last line was a banger.
- 35:43Speaker 2: I would listen to that kid's show. I mean, wait,
- 35:47Speaker 2: how old is that kid?
- 35:48Speaker 3: I mean, now that you saw the video, what would
- 35:50Speaker 3: you guess that kid's not six, there's no.
- 35:52Speaker 6: No, probably like middle school age be my guess.
- 35:55Speaker 3: Yeah, younger ten eleven.
- 36:00Speaker 2: Team No, I understand that. I'm just saying that kid's
- 36:04Speaker 2: way too sophisticated with his verbiage to be six years old.
- 36:07Speaker 2: That's a Philly kid right there.
- 36:08Speaker 3: That's a kid that sounds like he's watched a lot
- 36:11Speaker 3: of games with a disappointed father in the middle of
- 36:13Speaker 3: the Zealis games.
- 36:14Speaker 8: And I also watched Kevin Patula flipping burgers at like
- 36:17Speaker 8: the local McDonald's or something.
- 36:18Speaker 2: I don't care. That's a That's also a kid who
- 36:22Speaker 2: during halftime goes out back and smokes hammers a couple
- 36:25Speaker 2: and hammers a couple of cores, lights the old man,
- 36:28Speaker 2: and then comes back in. Uh right. I don't know
- 36:30Speaker 2: what he is. He joined he joins Big Troy in
- 36:33Speaker 2: the garage for a dart and accoldie. I don't know
- 36:36Speaker 2: what it is.
- 36:36Speaker 5: I was watching the end of that Philly game with
- 36:39Speaker 5: a couple of Philly fans at Ballerina yesterday. They were
- 36:43Speaker 5: right there in the room watching the end of that game.
- 36:45Speaker 5: I don't know why I take great delight out of
- 36:48Speaker 5: watching Philly fans suffer to watch their team loose.
- 36:51Speaker 2: I just do. It's a flawed me, It's a human
- 36:54Speaker 2: fly now Philadelphia fans, Philadelphia fans are just victor, just unique.
- 37:00Speaker 2: Why do I take delight in that? I shouldn't do
- 37:02Speaker 2: that evil?
- 37:03Speaker 5: That's sinful, that's it's not that's not righteous of me
- 37:06Speaker 5: to do that, and yet I do.
- 37:08Speaker 2: I took and he's like, I was gleeful.
- 37:11Speaker 3: It took one camera shot of Nick Siriana for me
- 37:14Speaker 3: to feel that way.
- 37:14Speaker 2: Oh no, you're anti Italian. I understand your role in this.
- 37:18Speaker 3: See I don't like I don't mind Big Dom. I
- 37:22Speaker 3: hate Syriana though so much.
- 37:25Speaker 2: I don't know how many.
- 37:25Speaker 5: Different ways you could say you don't like it.
- 37:28Speaker 2: You're so you're so right about that? What's so weird? Does?
- 37:31Speaker 2: He plays it off like everything's cool? But then it's
- 37:34Speaker 2: all these little tiny gigs in Italy. Man, It's just
- 37:39Speaker 2: it really is. It's noticeable, and it's unwards.
- 37:43Speaker 3: It sucks. Rocky is a terrible movie.
- 37:45Speaker 2: See what I'm saying.
- 37:46Speaker 5: Two of the greatest Italians we know.
- 37:49Speaker 3: Nick slice Alone, Li Stlone's coming out with the book.
- 37:54Speaker 2: And I'm gonna tell you right now, I'm gonna buy
- 37:56Speaker 2: you each a copy. If you don't read it, I'm done.
- 37:58Speaker 2: I would love to read it. He's had a fascinating career. Man,
- 38:02Speaker 2: and by the way, he toilet.
- 38:04Speaker 3: Paper, it's cutting expensive. I'd love to have on for free.
- 38:08Speaker 2: What's the what's the what's the TV show that Tulsa
- 38:11Speaker 2: Tulsa King? Yeah, dude, he's really good in that. As
- 38:15Speaker 2: an old dude, he's outstanding. Yes, one of the great
- 38:18Speaker 2: Americans of all time.
- 38:20Speaker 3: Uh, how about this? The Nuggets over the weekend, So
- 38:23Speaker 3: it's weird. They get this win yesterday and it's like
- 38:27Speaker 3: you have a Yannice Miles Turner, I mean, all the
- 38:31Speaker 3: different guys that are in for the Bucks and you're
- 38:33Speaker 3: starting Hunter Tyson because Jamal Murray misses his second straight
- 38:36Speaker 3: game with the ankle sprain, and you find a way
- 38:39Speaker 3: to get the win. Now, you entered the game on
- 38:41Speaker 3: Friday against the Hawks, who were up one heading in
- 38:43Speaker 3: the fourth and just the wheels fell off, and part
- 38:45Speaker 3: of me, Vick My reaction was, that's gonna happen sometimes
- 38:48Speaker 3: with this lineup. Okay, that's just whatever. You're gonna have
- 38:50Speaker 3: to eat that one occasionally, but overall they are right
- 38:55Speaker 3: now four in three without Nikola Jokic.
- 38:58Speaker 5: Tim Hardway told me that last night. He said, when
- 39:01Speaker 5: we sat there and watched those young ones win in Philly,
- 39:06Speaker 5: it motivated us.
- 39:07Speaker 2: It inspired us. It changed their mentality.
- 39:10Speaker 5: So you go into a game like last night and
- 39:11Speaker 5: you're missing.
- 39:12Speaker 9: Four starters again, right, instead of panicking, instead of like,
- 39:17Speaker 9: oh my god, instead of doing what Mosa wanted to
- 39:20Speaker 9: do when he found out Josh Allen was coming to
- 39:22Speaker 9: town Saturday and running for the hills, instead of doing that,
- 39:25Speaker 9: the Nuggets last night said all right, let's go.
- 39:27Speaker 2: Who's up, Zeke you ready, Picket, you ready, Spencer, Joes
- 39:32Speaker 2: you ready, let's go. That's exactly what they did. Well,
- 39:35Speaker 2: they pants, and they also have no yeah, they have
- 39:38Speaker 2: no choice. But I was highly impressed, Vick, And I
- 39:41Speaker 2: think what I was most impressed by was the fact
- 39:45Speaker 2: that they they didn't give anything up. They just sort
- 39:48Speaker 2: of maintained and maintained and maintained and maintained, and it
- 39:52Speaker 2: was it was a true professional win. And then at
- 39:56Speaker 2: the end, I'll tell you what. At the end of
- 39:57Speaker 2: the Nuggets were a little bit mad, and Hardaway juniors mad,
- 40:00Speaker 2: and then Kuzma. I think it was like final and
- 40:02Speaker 2: Kuzma's kind of laughing like he knows that we're gonna win.
- 40:05Speaker 2: It was great.
- 40:06Speaker 3: Love to see that last sequence. By the way, even
- 40:08Speaker 3: though you couldn't get a rebound, that's like the effort
- 40:12Speaker 3: that is making this team go right now, the two
- 40:16Speaker 3: block shots on threes, couldn't get the boards, still got
- 40:19Speaker 3: to go crazy like that's what's leading them to wins, is.
- 40:21Speaker 2: That right around with their hair on fire.
- 40:23Speaker 5: Defensively, their defensive numbers have been so much better because
- 40:27Speaker 5: they're switching everything. They're just switching everything and they're getting
- 40:30Speaker 5: out the shooters. The most amazing stat for the Denver
- 40:33Speaker 5: Nuggets since Nikola Jokis went down, they've played seven games.
- 40:36Speaker 5: They're four and three in those games, and you look
- 40:39Speaker 5: at the standings, they have not moved from the number
- 40:41Speaker 5: three seed.
- 40:41Speaker 2: They're still the number three seed, which is a phenomenal.
- 40:44Speaker 2: Now it's razor thin.
- 40:45Speaker 5: They're only a half game ahead of Minnesota, they're only
- 40:47Speaker 5: a game back to San Antonio. I mean, they're right there.
- 40:49Speaker 2: They have a move.
- 40:50Speaker 5: They've done exactly what we hope they do is just swim.
- 40:54Speaker 2: Stay afloat, stay afloat, and that's what they're doing. Do
- 40:59Speaker 2: you guys have this phenomena of your house. So it's
- 41:04Speaker 2: my wife wants to watch a show. We're gonna watch
- 41:06Speaker 2: a show together, but we gotta wait for the Nuggets
- 41:08Speaker 2: game to end first. Okay, fine, So Ag goes to
- 41:13Speaker 2: the line and this is when he can put him
- 41:15Speaker 2: up by five right with like I don't know how
- 41:16Speaker 2: many seconds left, like eleven seconds left, something like that
- 41:19Speaker 2: missed the first one, and he misses the first one.
- 41:21Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, I go, well, if he makes this one,
- 41:24Speaker 2: they're still gonna win the game because they are gonna need,
- 41:26Speaker 2: you know, two buckets and da da da da da
- 41:28Speaker 2: da da. So he makes the second one, but then
- 41:30Speaker 2: they come down and get a tube it's a tip ball,
- 41:33Speaker 2: and then do lays it up right now, it's a
- 41:34Speaker 2: two point game with what four point whatever? And so
- 41:37Speaker 2: then Ag gets fouled again on the inbound after the timeout.
- 41:39Speaker 2: So this takes another five minutes.
- 41:42Speaker 3: The last of a fourth quarter of a basketball game
- 41:45Speaker 3: takes fifteen real minutes.
- 41:47Speaker 2: And so he's at the line again and I go,
- 41:49Speaker 2: if he makes the if he makes this, the game
- 41:51Speaker 2: is over. She said, I thought you said to me
- 41:53Speaker 2: the last one, the game is over. I well, I
- 41:55Speaker 2: did say that, and I meant it, but it wasn't. Okay,
- 41:58Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
- 41:58Speaker 3: Can I tell you something, by the way, So the
- 42:00Speaker 3: Nuggets get that win yesterday, it's great and as Vic
- 42:03Speaker 3: was just pointing out, they haven't moved since Yokich has
- 42:05Speaker 3: been out of the line of over seven games. I
- 42:06Speaker 3: think that's awesome. I got a little bit. Now, it's
- 42:09Speaker 3: not remotely the same, but I thought a little bit
- 42:11Speaker 3: of that most with the Avs game over the weekend,
- 42:14Speaker 3: because the Avs one a hockey game four to nothing,
- 42:18Speaker 3: blew out Columbus, and they did it because I was wondering,
- 42:22Speaker 3: when are they gonna give Wedgwood a rest while incomes
- 42:25Speaker 3: Trent Minor, and I thought before the game, Okay, Minor's starting,
- 42:28Speaker 3: you probably got to put up some goals, just because
- 42:29Speaker 3: he's probably gonna let in a few and he pitches
- 42:33Speaker 3: a shutout and then all the scoring and production you
- 42:37Speaker 3: get offensively. McKinnon zero points, Macar zero points, Nature zero points,
- 42:41Speaker 3: Valve zero points. It all came from the depth.
- 42:44Speaker 2: Guys.
- 42:45Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a lov off getting a goal. Like everybody
- 42:47Speaker 3: that you would consider the lower end of these, either
- 42:51Speaker 3: the lines or the blue line or whatever, they were
- 42:53Speaker 3: the ones producing. I thought that was a really cool
- 42:55Speaker 3: game to see out of that.
- 42:57Speaker 2: It was and Burns with a couple of talies. It's
- 42:59Speaker 2: like all those depth players and you're gonna eat on
- 43:02Speaker 2: any given night, You're gonna need those guys or any
- 43:05Speaker 2: given Look when you get to the postseason. What has
- 43:07Speaker 2: Jared Bedner always said about lines in the postseason? Brett
- 43:11Speaker 2: does he say? He says that line that with third,
- 43:14Speaker 2: fourth or whatever, they have to beat the other. Yes, right,
- 43:16Speaker 2: they have. So that's where all that in your match
- 43:18Speaker 2: coming in. That is correct. So it was great to
- 43:21Speaker 2: see and the fact that Trent Minor gets his first
- 43:25Speaker 2: career win as a shutout second goalie in franchise history.
- 43:29Speaker 2: To have that happen where their first win is a shutout. Dude,
- 43:32Speaker 2: he played really, really well and I was so happy
- 43:34Speaker 2: for him. He came up ont of his set at
- 43:36Speaker 2: cutawad of social after the game and there's a big
- 43:38Speaker 2: crowd there and they're all changing mine or mine. I'm thinking,
- 43:42Speaker 2: you know, this guy works his bag off in practice,
- 43:46Speaker 2: you know, and every morning scape when he's you know,
- 43:48Speaker 2: he's up with the team, but he's not he's not playing.
- 43:51Speaker 2: He's taken shot after shot after shot. Right, he just
- 43:54Speaker 2: goes about his business, does his job, he works his
- 43:57Speaker 2: bag off and finally gets the opportunity for a real
- 44:00Speaker 2: cool start here and in front of a soldat crowd.
- 44:04Speaker 2: He makes the most of it. It was really cool,
- 44:05Speaker 2: you know. I'm just I'm so happy for guys like
- 44:07Speaker 2: that and guys like slova Vick. He comes, he comes,
- 44:10Speaker 2: marching in, he's in the line because Taves is out
- 44:12Speaker 2: and goes pew. It was great. Those are the stories
- 44:15Speaker 2: you're so You're so right about that.
- 44:16Speaker 5: It's those guys who are not used very often and
- 44:19Speaker 5: have to prove themselves on a daily basis. That's why
- 44:22Speaker 5: watching guys like Zeke Nausey, Jalen Pickett, hunter Tyson played
- 44:26Speaker 5: critical mits he started. I mean, did you see that
- 44:29Speaker 5: starting lineup for the night and sisterday?
- 44:31Speaker 2: Did you see who started the game.
- 44:33Speaker 5: If I had told you in October that that would
- 44:36Speaker 5: be your starting line up mid January, be like, are
- 44:38Speaker 5: you crazy?
- 44:39Speaker 3: Hunter Tyson, Spencer Jones, Jalen Pickett.
- 44:43Speaker 2: And and and Zeke was so you would think of
- 44:45Speaker 2: last night, you would think that your basketball world is ending. Yeah,
- 44:48Speaker 2: that's your starting lineup, right, Zeke.
- 44:50Speaker 5: Nausey was effective last night, just his presence, his length.
- 44:53Speaker 5: I mean, having a deal with Giannis. Nobody can deal
- 44:56Speaker 5: with them, let alone a guy who barely plays. But
- 44:59Speaker 5: they brought Zeke back into the game, so he sat
- 45:02Speaker 5: early in the fourth said we gotta have you back
- 45:04Speaker 5: there because your body is just too good. They put
- 45:06Speaker 5: him back in the game and he finished the game. Dude,
- 45:09Speaker 5: I'm telling you, man, things are happening for a reason.
- 45:12Speaker 5: It feels like one of those fate seasons, doesn't it.
- 45:14Speaker 2: Yes, Yeah, and Giannis was great yesterday. By the way,
- 45:17Speaker 2: I can't help but watch when he plays. I can't
- 45:19Speaker 2: help but think about is it Keenan Thompson? Was he
- 45:22Speaker 2: being himself or was he being LeVar Ball when he
- 45:25Speaker 2: when he pronounces.
- 45:27Speaker 3: I think it's being I'm doing that.
- 45:33Speaker 2: So I'm having dinner with my wife and I'm like
- 45:36Speaker 2: too speaking of Nelly and I love Jist, don't get
- 45:42Speaker 2: me wrong, but I just Keenan Thompson was his dude.
- 45:44Speaker 2: I just can't get that out of my head. One
- 45:46Speaker 2: more time, please, Nelli, one more time, please, I'm sorry,
- 45:49Speaker 2: one more time than I got to choke.
- 45:52Speaker 5: Which brings me to a crazy story I had a
- 45:56Speaker 5: dream last night that I toured the Vatican with Nicola
- 46:00Speaker 5: Jokic and Jannis Vala and Yonis Valin Schoeness, the three
- 46:04Speaker 5: of us, and Yonna spent the entire time telling me
- 46:07Speaker 5: his live story.
- 46:09Speaker 2: And I'm like, dude, enough already. I mean, he had
- 46:11Speaker 2: full mosure on me.
- 46:13Speaker 5: This dream was so vivid and so crazy, and I'm like,
- 46:16Speaker 5: why am I having this dream?
- 46:18Speaker 2: Did you get Steve?
- 46:20Speaker 3: It's funny, Vic, because Jokic actually told me the other
- 46:22Speaker 3: day he had a dream that he was touring the
- 46:24Speaker 3: Vatican with you. He dreamed that you.
- 46:28Speaker 2: Did you. I'm not joking of Moser. You know those
- 46:31Speaker 2: vivid stories.
- 46:32Speaker 5: And you know what what made this just a ridiculous
- 46:34Speaker 5: dream is that I could almost see eye to eye
- 46:37Speaker 5: with Yona's Valence.
- 46:37Speaker 2: Shootness, I'm like, okay, this is not real. That's yeah,
- 46:40Speaker 2: it can't be. You got to be in the dream
- 46:42Speaker 2: going wait, I wait a second here, wait, this is
- 46:44Speaker 2: like what is going on? Either either I grew a
- 46:46Speaker 2: foot and a half or he shrunk.
- 46:48Speaker 3: Okay, hang on, I gotta tell u real quick before
- 46:50Speaker 3: you get to a break, because I saw this yesterday
