- 4:30Speaker 1: When we get to the Nickel City Crew Tailgate Report
- 4:33Speaker 1: sponsored by Queen City Vintage.
- 4:35Speaker 3: DT A little bit of business to get to.
- 4:38Speaker 1: It's funny because I was listening to gr and I
- 4:41Speaker 1: always do, and you know, they've been talking about how
- 4:44Speaker 1: maybe the bye week kind of compounded things like it
- 4:47Speaker 1: makes people a little bit more stressed because we haven't
- 4:50Speaker 1: played a game in so long, and I came up
- 4:53Speaker 1: on a topic that I've been thinking about for well, literally,
- 4:58Speaker 1: I guess since the Atlanta game. It was maybe even
- 5:01Speaker 1: since the Patriots came. And I've been wondering because the
- 5:05Speaker 1: reason I named the episode of the way that I
- 5:06Speaker 1: did Joe Brady He's had experience. He's a young guy
- 5:12Speaker 1: or what in the case maybe, but he's had experience.
- 5:13Speaker 1: I mean, he coached arguably one of the best offenses
- 5:18Speaker 1: in college football history down there in Louisiana with LSU.
- 5:22Speaker 1: You've got Joe Burrow, You've got Jamar Chase, You've got
- 5:25Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson. And the things that I've seen from this
- 5:29Speaker 1: offense now with everybody eats and things like that, is
- 5:33Speaker 1: not really resemblance of what you know, I've seen from
- 5:36Speaker 1: Joe Brady and the type of offenses that he ran.
- 5:38Speaker 3: I mean, I.
- 5:38Speaker 1: Literally googled it and googled LSU play calling with with
- 5:42Speaker 1: Joe Brady and like, he runs, you know, a pro
- 5:45Speaker 1: style offense.
- 5:46Speaker 3: And he's got different concepts and different things like that.
- 5:48Speaker 1: And then I listened and I heard the guy Coselle,
- 5:52Speaker 1: Greg Coselva was on Today with Ross Tucker, and he
- 5:55Speaker 1: was like, the Bills don't really do the intermediate stuff
- 5:57Speaker 1: like the Lions do. They don't do, you know, a
- 5:59Speaker 1: lot of the things things that can help Josh Allen.
- 6:01Speaker 1: And obviously they wanted to reduce turnovers, but at what expense,
- 6:05Speaker 1: you know, did they pay to do that? And I'm
- 6:08Speaker 1: just wondering because this Joe Brady thing, I just can't
- 6:11Speaker 1: figure it out.
- 6:12Speaker 3: Man.
- 6:12Speaker 1: He got fired down here where I am in Charlotte
- 6:15Speaker 1: with the Carolina Panthers during Matt Rule's regime because I
- 6:19Speaker 1: guess apparently Matt Rule didn't like how much he threw
- 6:21Speaker 1: the ball and how much and how aggressive he was,
- 6:24Speaker 1: and he wanted to run the ball board.
- 6:26Speaker 3: Joe.
- 6:26Speaker 1: Either Joe Brady did a complete one eighty DT and
- 6:30Speaker 1: flipped on all of the principles and the things that
- 6:33Speaker 1: he learned in LSU in Carolina, or he's being told
- 6:38Speaker 1: that this is the way that the offense needs to go,
- 6:40Speaker 1: and I needed your help unpacking it because it's I
- 6:43Speaker 1: don't know, man, it's just weird. After these last two games,
- 6:46Speaker 1: it's just not it's not clicking. Everything is hard. Obviously,
- 6:50Speaker 1: we know that we don't have the receivers on the
- 6:52Speaker 1: outside to win, so that obviously compounds that. But this
- 6:55Speaker 1: doesn't even seem like a Joe Brady that I thought
- 6:58Speaker 1: that we were getting when he took over for Dorsey.
- 7:00Speaker 1: And I understand when he took over for Dorsey, he
- 7:03Speaker 1: was triage. He was trying to stop the bleeding. But
- 7:06Speaker 1: he's had a whole year of this thing where everybody
- 7:09Speaker 1: seems to be what he wants to do.
- 7:11Speaker 3: It it's I don't know, man, It's got me ask
- 7:13Speaker 3: him questions.
- 7:14Speaker 2: Man, that's fair, and I think he's you know, we
- 7:18Speaker 2: talked about it last week with with Sheet and you know,
- 7:21Speaker 2: the host of the mob files on the inexperience, right,
- 7:25Speaker 2: But then I kind of counteracted that of like, well,
- 7:28Speaker 2: he does have experience. He's been coaching since he yes,
- 7:30Speaker 2: he's only thirty six years old, but he's been coaching
- 7:32Speaker 2: since twenty one as a grand assistant, and there's head
- 7:35Speaker 2: coaches in the NFL the same age as him, and
- 7:37Speaker 2: a head coach Sean mcvay's got a Super Bowl ring,
- 7:40Speaker 2: you know, the same age as him. Right, So inexperience
- 7:43Speaker 2: doesn't necessarily mean that you're gonna suck. You know, inexperience
- 7:46Speaker 2: can mean a lot of different things. But the fact
- 7:50Speaker 2: that you said it right. He had the embarrassment of riches,
- 7:55Speaker 2: if you will, at LSU and everybody eats might have
- 7:58Speaker 2: been a thing there. But it's easy to have everybody
- 8:00Speaker 2: eats when Jamar Chase is on one side and Justin
- 8:03Speaker 2: Jefferson's on the other, Like, yeah, of course everyone eats,
- 8:06Speaker 2: they're open. But then you see, you know the caliber
- 8:09Speaker 2: of those players, they just don't they're not around. There's
- 8:13Speaker 2: one of those guys in the NFL that well, there's two,
- 8:15Speaker 2: there's just Jefferson and Jamar Chase. But it was a
- 8:17Speaker 2: perfect example of last week when the Bengals played the
- 8:21Speaker 2: Steelers on Thursday night with you know, old Ashjo Flacco
- 8:24Speaker 2: and you know somebody who's just go back to being simple,
- 8:28Speaker 2: go back to throwing to the best receiver in the game.
- 8:30Speaker 2: He's wide open. He had twenty two targets and sixteen
- 8:33Speaker 2: catches in that game, Jamar Chase did so Bills don't
- 8:37Speaker 2: have that. A lot of teams in the NFL don't.
- 8:39Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean you can't be better at giving
- 8:44Speaker 2: the best quarterback in the world, you know, something to
- 8:47Speaker 2: something to get after, right, So I think it was
- 8:50Speaker 2: it's a mix of him, you know, coming guns of
- 8:54Speaker 2: blazing out of LSU, getting into his first big role
- 8:57Speaker 2: in Carolina and kind of getting the shit kicked out
- 9:00Speaker 2: getting pushed off the pedestal very quickly coming to Buffalo.
- 9:04Speaker 2: Sean McDermott is a very you know, hard his way
- 9:07Speaker 2: or the highway type of thing. We've gotten into this
- 9:08Speaker 2: multiple times. He wants to fit in. He also wants
- 9:11Speaker 2: to have his own mo about things and learning this
- 9:16Speaker 2: everybody eats. But then also, I just saw a comment
- 9:19Speaker 2: I apologize, I don't know who came up on it,
- 9:21Speaker 2: but said two games, relax, it's a little more than
- 9:24Speaker 2: two days. It's a little more than two games. Like, yes,
- 9:28Speaker 2: the two games look bad, and we lost these last
- 9:30Speaker 2: two games and it was tough because the offense was
- 9:32Speaker 2: sputtering and YadA, YadA, YadA, But it is more than
- 9:35Speaker 2: two games. So I'm in again. Devil's advocate. I'm not
- 9:37Speaker 2: going all in like we still got a lot of time,
- 9:39Speaker 2: but I will say it is more than two games.
- 9:42Speaker 2: It's harder as the best quarterback in the league. Why
- 9:45Speaker 2: does it look so hard as opposed to you know,
- 9:48Speaker 2: the mahomes Is of the world, where they don't have
- 9:50Speaker 2: the crazy talented receiver either, and he's still making things work.
- 9:54Speaker 2: My biggest thing is on the last Monday night, especially
- 9:59Speaker 2: against the Elkins, that first Reid was never there, wasn't
- 10:04Speaker 2: there the entire night. It's the three step, four step,
- 10:06Speaker 2: five step drop. Reid is never there to get the
- 10:09Speaker 2: ball out, and that obviously caused he excuse me, hecticness
- 10:13Speaker 2: everything else. Josh couldn't get in a rhythm. The offense
- 10:16Speaker 2: looks slow everything because of that Mahomes ball out right away.
- 10:21Speaker 2: Joe Flacco was throwing the ball before Jamar Chase was
- 10:23Speaker 2: even into his you know, into a route, just like
- 10:26Speaker 2: just throw it up to him and we're moving the
- 10:28Speaker 2: chains with it. So I think it's a mixture of
- 10:32Speaker 2: Joe Brady, you know, kind of being guns blazing, getting
- 10:35Speaker 2: pushed back down and then trying to build back up
- 10:37Speaker 2: in his own mo but also okay, I can't just
- 10:41Speaker 2: be crazy, you know, Joe Brady here, I need to
- 10:44Speaker 2: learn to be a pro coach. So I think he's
- 10:46Speaker 2: learning as well. And that goes back to the experience
- 10:48Speaker 2: that she'd took.
- 10:49Speaker 3: You talked about last week. Yeah, he's learning.
- 10:52Speaker 2: He's trying to be like, Okay, I did this a
- 10:53Speaker 2: little too much. It wasn't a great reaction, so then
- 10:55Speaker 2: I'm gonna do this. And then it was like, Okay,
- 10:57Speaker 2: everybody eats is a nice little mix, Like we're not
- 10:59Speaker 2: going guns of blaze in. It's a cool thing. We
- 11:01Speaker 2: score a franchise record in points. Why would you go
- 11:04Speaker 2: away from it?
- 11:05Speaker 3: All?
- 11:05Speaker 2: Right, But looking at the film, not just to the
- 11:08Speaker 2: last two weeks, from week three from New Orleans Saints
- 11:12Speaker 2: on the juice wasn't there. The offense wasn't clicking. The
- 11:19Speaker 2: offense wasn't you know. It's just way too many three
- 11:22Speaker 2: and outs, way too many stall drives, And then it
- 11:25Speaker 2: feels like when they do click, they can kind of
- 11:28Speaker 2: get into that gear and click, and they just have
- 11:30Speaker 2: trouble maintaining it. So there's a lot of factors with it.
- 11:34Speaker 2: I'm gonna be optimistic in the fact of, you know,
- 11:37Speaker 2: there's still a lot of time in the season where
- 11:39Speaker 2: we still don't know the true identity of it, and
- 11:43Speaker 2: him trying to learn, but him trying to learn. I
- 11:46Speaker 2: don't need somebody trying to learn and be a better
- 11:48Speaker 2: coach and set up their whole career and ruin a
- 11:50Speaker 2: year of the best MVP you know of the best
- 11:52Speaker 2: player in the game. So it it's just kind of
- 11:56Speaker 2: blah to me right now, and shitty in the fact,
- 11:59Speaker 2: I don't think it's like he's sitting there like, oh,
- 12:03Speaker 2: this this is the way I think. Let's try it.
- 12:07Speaker 2: We score the franchise record in points. Okay, it's not
- 12:10Speaker 2: really working. Again, I gotta get something hot going now.
- 12:13Speaker 2: After two losses out of the buy something difference gotta come.
- 12:16Speaker 2: And the difference is letting your franchise MVP, the best
- 12:20Speaker 2: quarterback in the world, just do his thing. You know,
- 12:22Speaker 2: you have the best you have the best outlet there.
- 12:26Speaker 2: Joe Flacco had the outlet throw it to one win
- 12:30Speaker 2: in doubt, throw it to one win in doubt. Let
- 12:32Speaker 2: seventeen do his thing. And we've talked about seventeen. Maybe
- 12:34Speaker 2: there's some other factors involved with that. Hopefully the bye
- 12:36Speaker 2: week gets them back, but it's got to be back
- 12:39Speaker 2: to let him do his thing. Quicker quick outs. We
- 12:42Speaker 2: need quicker movement of the chains. The defense gets on
- 12:45Speaker 2: their heels. Seventeen is a locomotive that nobody's gonna stop
- 12:48Speaker 2: once he gets rolling. But we haven't been able to
- 12:50Speaker 2: get rolling. So that's ono Brady it even if we'll
- 12:56Speaker 2: get later in the point of even if mcderm it's
- 12:58Speaker 2: overlooking it so much that it's you know, it isn't
- 13:01Speaker 2: Joe Brady's just Sean McDermot tell him what to do.
- 13:03Speaker 2: But then I don't know. I don't think it's like that.
- 13:06Speaker 2: I think I think you going through his trials.
- 13:09Speaker 1: So then if you don't think that it's okay, so
- 13:12Speaker 1: then let's let's let's start there. If you don't think
- 13:15Speaker 1: that it's McDermott, you know, forcing his way onto Brady, okay,
- 13:21Speaker 1: and this is this is what Brady wants. This is
- 13:23Speaker 1: the way. Listen. I understand that the three tight end
- 13:26Speaker 1: sets work, and last year was Alec Anderson. Now you've
- 13:29Speaker 1: got a Spencer Halls. I understand the running approach and
- 13:34Speaker 1: and finding a way to let James cook literally and
- 13:36Speaker 1: let Jimbo get get loose.
- 13:38Speaker 3: Things like that.
- 13:39Speaker 1: What I can't reconcile is that, then why last week
- 13:44Speaker 1: or two weeks ago the Falcons game, why didn't you
- 13:47Speaker 1: stay with the run game when it was working because
- 13:49Speaker 1: of the fact that you were trying to And I
- 13:51Speaker 1: think that that's what McDermott is talking about when he's
- 13:54Speaker 1: talking about too cute. I feel like Brady is trying shit.
- 13:58Speaker 1: Okay for lack of a I think like he's trying
- 14:01Speaker 1: stuff out, He's trying to figure out stuff. And my
- 14:04Speaker 1: problem with that is that we are in a Super
- 14:06Speaker 1: Bowl window. You have an MVP quarterback who is more
- 14:09Speaker 1: than capable of doing whatever you need him to do.
- 14:12Speaker 1: Let's not experiment so much right now in the middle
- 14:16Speaker 1: of the season, when when the games matter and things
- 14:19Speaker 1: are on the line. I had a nice exchange on
- 14:22Speaker 1: Twitter with a couple of guys who were talking about, like,
- 14:25Speaker 1: you know, shout out to Rev like, you know, like,
- 14:27Speaker 1: don't if you're tinkering and you're trying stuff, you don't
- 14:31Speaker 1: have to show everything that you're that you're thinking about doing.
- 14:33Speaker 1: But now you see this, you know, Jet sweeps to
- 14:37Speaker 1: Elijah Moore and stuff like that, and then the coach is.
- 14:39Speaker 3: Calling him out.
- 14:40Speaker 1: I'm worried that Joe Brady doesn't know the identity of
- 14:44Speaker 1: the offense and what he wants it to be, and
- 14:46Speaker 1: because of that, that leads to confusion, it leads to
- 14:51Speaker 1: serving multiple masters.
- 14:53Speaker 3: I've got to make sure that Josh doesn't have turnovers.
- 14:55Speaker 1: I've got to make sure Josh, you know, cuts down
- 14:57Speaker 1: on interceptions, and then you're sacrificing some of that for
- 15:00Speaker 1: some of the stuff that Greg Cosel talked about a
- 15:02Speaker 1: little bit today, which was the Bills don't have an
- 15:05Speaker 1: intermediate passing game. They are not in a situation where
- 15:08Speaker 1: they are stretching the field and hurting defenses on those
- 15:13Speaker 1: types of intermediate routes. That's a problem to me because
- 15:15Speaker 1: of the fact that I don't have.
- 15:18Speaker 3: Time to be wondering what we are.
- 15:21Speaker 1: I need us in a Super Bowl window to attack
- 15:23Speaker 1: and to feel confident in however we're going. If it's
- 15:27Speaker 1: three tight ends DT and it's James Cook all day,
- 15:30Speaker 1: then fine. If that's what you guys want to do,
- 15:32Speaker 1: then that's fine. I might have a different approach, but
- 15:34Speaker 1: I'm not the OC. That's fine, but I don't What
- 15:37Speaker 1: I don't like is the indecision, and I feel like
- 15:39Speaker 1: there's just some indecisiveness between Joe Brady what he wants
- 15:43Speaker 1: us to be and then what he's calling on game days,
- 15:46Speaker 1: and that that is my issue, that's my main crux
- 15:50Speaker 1: of my problem with him.
- 15:52Speaker 2: I agree that's an issue. Then we're not in an
- 15:54Speaker 2: experimental stage here. We're in to win a super Bowl
- 15:57Speaker 2: or bust. And that is not any experiment about It's
- 16:00Speaker 2: it's find a way to get it done, no matter
- 16:02Speaker 2: how you do it. We got we got to get there.
- 16:04Speaker 2: So agree one hundred percent we shouldn't be in an
- 16:07Speaker 2: experimental stage. Some of the things that he's experimenting with.
- 16:11Speaker 2: I'm kind of I'm glad if he's gonna experiment, he's
- 16:14Speaker 2: doing it now. So we're not running that bullshit jet
- 16:16Speaker 2: sweep in week seventeen or in the in the in
- 16:19Speaker 2: the wild guard weekend. You know, like obviously that's out
- 16:22Speaker 2: of the playbook now, and if it's not, you know,
- 16:25Speaker 2: it's gonna be a problem. So trying things that don't work,
- 16:29Speaker 2: trying things at work, but it's also you know what,
- 16:33Speaker 2: let's put someone on seventeen too, Like, Bro, you are
- 16:37Speaker 2: the guy now, you have leadership. You are allowed to talk,
- 16:40Speaker 2: you are allowed to make you know. And I'm not
- 16:42Speaker 2: saying he's not, but I think he needs to step
- 16:46Speaker 2: up and say this is unacceptable. We're not experimenting anymore, Joe.
- 16:49Speaker 2: You know, I love you. Here's here's what works, here's
- 16:51Speaker 2: what we do. Get in this set. Let's run it
- 16:54Speaker 2: and if we get stopped, we go from there. But
- 16:57Speaker 2: I think it's also on you know, Josh Allen to
- 17:00Speaker 2: be like, hey, like I'm not here forever. I want
- 17:02Speaker 2: to win a ball. We're not experimenting, you know. So
- 17:05Speaker 2: I like it, but we're not doing that right now,
- 17:08Speaker 2: right and and so I'm putting it on him as well.
- 17:11Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know where to go on
- 17:14Speaker 2: the McDermott thing right now about that, because.
- 17:17Speaker 1: I mean, I know he loves to run the My
- 17:20Speaker 1: premise is that he knows he loves to run the ball.
- 17:23Speaker 1: He you know what, if I always said he's he's
- 17:25Speaker 1: like Rex Ryan and Dick Duron, He's just more professional,
- 17:29Speaker 1: you know what I mean.
- 17:29Speaker 3: He broke the drought stuff like that.
- 17:31Speaker 1: So, like, I know, his philosophy is, let's protect the defense,
- 17:34Speaker 1: let let my defense win it.
- 17:36Speaker 3: Things like that.
- 17:37Speaker 1: Now, obviously this year is a little bit different because
- 17:39Speaker 1: his defense is not capable and it's showing that it's
- 17:41Speaker 1: not capable of winning him games. So I was just
- 17:44Speaker 1: wondering if it's a where did everybody eats come from?
- 17:48Speaker 1: Like what like who's edicch? Was it to Jennison Stefan Diggs?
- 17:52Speaker 1: I know you wanted out, so they let him go.
- 17:54Speaker 1: You didn't replace him, So because you didn't replace him
- 17:56Speaker 1: with another top you know, top flight wide receiver, this
- 18:00Speaker 1: is the direction that they have decided to go, and
- 18:02Speaker 1: I just don't know if it's the right way for
- 18:05Speaker 1: a quarterback like Josh Allen to It was funny I
- 18:07Speaker 1: heard of the morning show. They said, let him off
- 18:09Speaker 1: the lease. He's a golden retriever. How do you make
- 18:11Speaker 1: your dog happy? Let him off the lease? Let him?
- 18:14Speaker 1: I mean literally the dude says his grandma called him
- 18:16Speaker 1: and said, I want you to smile more and stuff
- 18:17Speaker 1: like that, Like he is not having a good time.
- 18:20Speaker 1: So because he's not, like, let's pick up on the signs.
- 18:23Speaker 1: Let's pick up on the signals of what's going on
- 18:25Speaker 1: right now. And I feel like the offense is, you know,
- 18:29Speaker 1: kind of broken, like there's there's something wrong because they
- 18:33Speaker 1: didn't they did not try to score points, Okay, relative yes,
- 18:38Speaker 1: obviously every drive they're trying to score a touchdown. I'm
- 18:40Speaker 1: not I'm being hyperbolic on purpose. The first game of
- 18:44Speaker 1: the year against Baltimore, they had to be forced into
- 18:47Speaker 1: that game. They had to be forced to throw the
- 18:49Speaker 1: ball down the field. They had to be forced into
- 18:51Speaker 1: it because of the deficit that they were under.
- 18:54Speaker 3: I mean, Jets as a cakewalk, you know what I mean.
- 18:58Speaker 1: Miami's a cakewalk pretty much. You got New Orleans and
- 19:01Speaker 1: that's another cakewalk. But everything looks tighter everything, you know
- 19:03Speaker 1: what I mean. But like, I don't feel like I
- 19:07Speaker 1: hear that we could just turn it on and off
- 19:09Speaker 1: like a light switch. We could just turn on this offense.
- 19:12Speaker 1: And I just I just think that that's a fallacy.
- 19:13Speaker 1: I think that that is false.
- 19:14Speaker 3: DT.
- 19:15Speaker 2: I don't think that's true. I don't think that's true.
- 19:18Speaker 2: I think there's high power that sometimes isn't always showing,
- 19:21Speaker 2: and then it shows. But they haven't proven that they
- 19:24Speaker 2: can consistently do that. You know, they came out in
- 19:27Speaker 2: the Falcons game in the second half. We talked on
- 19:29Speaker 2: the phone at halftime and you said, hey, are we
- 19:31Speaker 2: turning the switch on?
- 19:32Speaker 3: Everyone?
- 19:32Speaker 2: Says, there's a switch. We came out and turned a
- 19:34Speaker 2: switch on, drove right down the field, scored six, and
- 19:36Speaker 2: then that was it. Right, So they've shown kind of
- 19:40Speaker 2: flirt of that, kind of quick snippets of that, like, yeah,
- 19:44Speaker 2: we can turn it on and move a ball quick
- 19:45Speaker 2: down the field. But I haven't seen longevity. I haven't
- 19:47Speaker 2: seen that two drives in a row. I haven't seen
- 19:49Speaker 2: that three dives in a row. So I don't believe
- 19:52Speaker 2: in that either.
- 19:54Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting as we listen.
- 19:58Speaker 1: That was my main thing was like it if you thought,
- 20:00Speaker 1: and you could concur with me, that maybe McDermott is
- 20:03Speaker 1: having his hands in this thing and that and if
- 20:04Speaker 1: he's not, fine, he's a defensive coach.
- 20:07Speaker 3: Fine.
- 20:08Speaker 1: If he's leading the offense to Joe Brady and that's fine,
- 20:10Speaker 1: and he's calling him out, calling him too cute and
- 20:12Speaker 1: stuff like that, he's voicing his.
- 20:13Speaker 3: Displeasure, that's fine. If you don't think that he has
- 20:15Speaker 3: his hands in this.
- 20:16Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out why the guy that had
- 20:19Speaker 1: the LSU offense, high octane Joe Brady is turned into
- 20:23Speaker 1: this let's limit mistakes, let's limit risk with a quarterback
- 20:27Speaker 1: like Josh Allen, because turnovers, as we talked about all
- 20:31Speaker 1: off season, DT are sometimes they're just lucky.
- 20:34Speaker 3: The ball is oblong.
- 20:35Speaker 1: We've talked about all of that, so we should have
- 20:37Speaker 1: never expected another eight turnover season.
- 20:40Speaker 3: That's not that's not likely. It's not anything that you
- 20:42Speaker 3: should depend on.
- 20:43Speaker 1: And I think that that that's the only thing that
- 20:45Speaker 1: worries me right now as we head into this Carolina game,
- 20:48Speaker 1: is does Joe Brady understand and know what he wants
- 20:51Speaker 1: to be because if he doesn't know, then it's going
- 20:54Speaker 1: it's going to lead to a lot of confusion. It's
- 20:56Speaker 1: going to lead to a lot of dissension where you know,
- 20:59Speaker 1: we don't only we don't even know what we're trying
- 21:01Speaker 1: to get accomplished this Sunday.
- 21:02Speaker 3: We know we want to.
- 21:02Speaker 1: Score points and that's about it. We don't know how
- 21:04Speaker 1: we're trying to get about how we're trying to go
- 21:06Speaker 1: about it.
- 21:07Speaker 2: Excuse me, well, I would say it's gonna come quickly.
- 21:10Speaker 2: Right if if Carolina looks anything like the Falcons or
- 21:14Speaker 2: the Patriots game, it's it's gonna get real loud, real quick,
- 21:19Speaker 2: you know, and that we we probably know nobody's touching
- 21:22Speaker 2: McDermott we know that, you know, but right, Joe Brady
- 21:25Speaker 2: can get touched, you know, and if if it's the
- 21:28Speaker 2: same type of deal, if it's the same type of deal,
- 21:31Speaker 2: and rico'dowell has two hundred and eighty scrimmage yards, it's
- 21:34Speaker 2: probably Babbage, to be honest. But if the offense can't
- 21:37Speaker 2: do anything, I can't name you. I can't name a
- 21:41Speaker 2: defender on the Panthers, Jay Horny just because he's you know,
- 21:47Speaker 2: because he's a son.
- 21:48Speaker 3: Of all time great form. I don't know anybody. I
- 21:53Speaker 3: don't know.
- 21:55Speaker 2: No, So it's right exactly. So it's I was kidding obviously,
- 21:59Speaker 2: but it's just yeah, so they can get touched, it
- 22:05Speaker 2: will get loud quick, So I don't want it to
- 22:07Speaker 2: get there. But I don't think we're going into week seventeen,
- 22:11Speaker 2: like damn, this was a weird year. Joe Brady just
- 22:13Speaker 2: was kind of stagnant. We the offense couldn't get going, Like,
- 22:16Speaker 2: I don't think that's going to be the case. If
- 22:18Speaker 2: Carolina looks anything like the last two weeks, I think
- 22:21Speaker 2: there's change, And there's changed quick.
- 22:24Speaker 3: Who as we transitioned tonight.
- 22:26Speaker 1: Tonight's episode is presented by Again check Out Our Boys,

- 23:27Speaker 3: I mean, I don't. I just I want to just
- 23:31Speaker 3: moddle this all into the Nigo City Crew tabreat report.
- 23:33Speaker 3: We can't.
- 23:34Speaker 1: Let's talk about the Carolina Panthers. Let's talk about what's
- 23:37Speaker 1: going on before we transition to and close up the
- 23:39Speaker 1: show on the Nico City Crew table.
- 23:40Speaker 3: Great report, DT.
- 23:44Speaker 1: This is a big one for a multitude of reasons
- 23:46Speaker 1: that we've already talked about and touched on. And it's
- 23:49Speaker 1: a big one because this is an opponent that you
- 23:51Speaker 1: should be you should take care of. I know that
- 23:53Speaker 1: the Panthers are feeling good about themselves. I think they're
- 23:55Speaker 1: four and three or three and three whatever, they're for
- 24:00Speaker 1: straight wins. Uh, They're they're feeling themselves. They're you know,
- 24:03Speaker 1: things are coming together. Their quarterback is out now. I
- 24:07Speaker 1: would posit that I would rather play Bryce Young. I
- 24:14Speaker 1: think that's posturing. I think that when the media leaves
- 24:17Speaker 1: that that's bullshit and he and he's not practicing excuse me,
- 24:20Speaker 1: he's not really gonna be playing with that high endle spring.
- 24:22Speaker 1: So I would prefer to play Bryce Young. Andy Dalton
- 24:26Speaker 1: obviously the backup quarterback.
- 24:28Speaker 3: What did you feel would be.
- 24:31Speaker 1: Do you have I mean, do you have a preference,
- 24:33Speaker 1: because I mean we just saw Joe flackol coming off
- 24:35Speaker 1: the street light up the Pittsburgh Steelers putting up all
- 24:38Speaker 1: those yards and touchdowns. Andy Dalton is definitely more competent
- 24:42Speaker 1: than Bryce Young. Bryce Young is obviously young. I don't
- 24:46Speaker 1: I'm not scared of either. I'm not scared of either.
- 24:49Speaker 1: I would rather play Bryce.
- 24:50Speaker 3: I would. I'll put it on record. I would.
- 24:53Speaker 2: Okay, I don't have a preference. I mean, Bryce Young's tiny.
- 24:57Speaker 2: Bryce youngs makes mistakes, but he is a first overall pick,
- 25:02Speaker 2: and you know, has flashes if he will, and I
- 25:07Speaker 2: don't want him catching you know, confidence and momentum. So
- 25:10Speaker 2: if I had to pick, if you're picking, you rather
- 25:11Speaker 2: play Bryce, I'd say rather play Andy Dalton. Yes, Andy
- 25:14Speaker 2: Dalton historic broke the drought for the Buffalo Bills. God
- 25:17Speaker 2: bless him. We'll never we'll never forget it. But dude
- 25:22Speaker 2: is old, you know. And yes, he might be more competent.
- 25:25Speaker 2: But does he have the gun like he used to?
- 25:28Speaker 2: Probably not. And yeah, Joe Flacco came out, Yeah, yeah,
- 25:32Speaker 2: Joe Flacco came out and balled out last week. But
- 25:35Speaker 2: Andy Dalton ain't got no Jamar Chase on the Carolina Panthers.
- 25:39Speaker 2: You know they they do have some high, high drafted receivers.
- 25:43Speaker 2: McMillan has had a decent rookie year. I think he's
- 25:46Speaker 2: gonna be a solid receiver in the league, but he's
- 25:47Speaker 2: gonna be nowhere near number one. And Jamar Chase. I
- 25:50Speaker 2: mean when I say one, not the number, not the
- 25:53Speaker 2: actual like wide receiver one. But and you know, Xavier
- 25:57Speaker 2: Lagat's been mediocre beat So I'm not really scared of either.
- 26:03Speaker 2: I if I had to pick, let's go Dalton. Back up, old,
- 26:07Speaker 2: get to them quick.
- 26:08Speaker 3: It is what it is.
- 26:10Speaker 2: I don't want Bryce s Young to start getting some confidence.
- 26:12Speaker 2: And you know I am a first overall pick. I
- 26:14Speaker 2: can go out there and ball out. So i'd say,
- 26:16Speaker 2: you say Bryce, I say Dalton. Not scared of either,
- 26:19Speaker 2: And to be honest, we can't be scared of either.
- 26:22Speaker 2: This is like you have to. You can't never overlook
- 26:24Speaker 2: anybody in the NFL. Everyone says that no fuck that
- 26:27Speaker 2: you need to, you need to. This team is inferior.
- 26:30Speaker 2: There's no if in, buts like, screw these dudes, they're
- 26:33Speaker 2: not you that nobody on this team is holding Josh
- 26:35Speaker 2: Allen's jockstrap, get in there, beat the brakes off them.
- 26:38Speaker 2: So I'm not scared of either. It has to be
- 26:41Speaker 2: a mentality of like over not overlooking, because you got
- 26:46Speaker 2: to play the game, but like, you can't respect this
- 26:48Speaker 2: team as the Buffalo Bills if you came in undefeated. Okay,
- 26:53Speaker 2: Panthers are on a little win streak. You know, we
- 26:55Speaker 2: gotta we gotta take this game seriously. The mindset this
- 26:58Speaker 2: week is you can't. You can't respect this team. We
- 27:00Speaker 2: are better. We need to go in and beat the
- 27:01Speaker 2: breaks off.
- 27:02Speaker 1: It is we have to we have to Okay, here,
- 27:07Speaker 1: here is okay, I'll play devil's advocate. Here is the
- 27:11Speaker 1: reason why you do need to respect them. They do
- 27:14Speaker 1: the thing you do worst very well. You are bad
- 27:18Speaker 1: at stopping the run. They've got this ric o'dodo, who's,
- 27:22Speaker 1: like you said, back to back, two hundred plus yards
- 27:25Speaker 1: from scrimmage. They just got to behovered back. They can
- 27:31Speaker 1: run the ball dt they can run that. And you're
- 27:34Speaker 1: you're looking up in the air and you're trying to
- 27:36Speaker 1: poo poo that ship because of the Carolina Panthers.
- 27:39Speaker 2: I can't poo poo it.
- 27:40Speaker 3: After I saw Jean, I can't pooh poo it after
- 27:43Speaker 3: I you know, Derrick Henry, I can't. I can't. I
- 27:46Speaker 3: can't poo pool it when they when they are literally
- 27:49Speaker 3: great at doing what you do, the worst you do
- 27:53Speaker 3: not defend the run.
- 27:54Speaker 2: Rico Donald's on his fourteen as a backup. He wasn't
- 27:59Speaker 2: even getting burneduntil Chubu Hubbard came out. He's on his
- 28:01Speaker 2: four team. He's not a B John Robinson. He's not
- 28:04Speaker 2: a Derrick Henry. And Cheba Hubbard is the definition of mediocre,
- 28:08Speaker 2: you know, just good to be on your fantasy team,
- 28:11Speaker 2: but not good enough to do anything crazy for you.
- 28:13Speaker 2: So agree, they do run the ball well, but these
- 28:17Speaker 2: dudes aren't B John Robinson. These dudes aren't Derrick Henry.
- 28:21Speaker 2: And like I'm not saying it like the Panthers, you know,
- 28:25Speaker 2: we I'm saying the mentality has to be, screw this team,
- 28:31Speaker 2: their inferior because like that's you need to get back
- 28:34Speaker 2: into that dog mindset of being a super Bowl contender
- 28:36Speaker 2: and being a team where the Carolina Panthers after a
- 28:39Speaker 2: bye week is a non negotiable, right, So that's what
- 28:42Speaker 2: I'm saying with that, Like I would respect this team
- 28:46Speaker 2: if it was if we were seven and zer right now.
- 28:51Speaker 3: For six.
- 28:51Speaker 2: And if we were six and oh right now, I'd say, Okay,
- 28:54Speaker 2: we got to go in take care of it. You know,
- 28:55Speaker 2: they run the ball, well we gotta be mindful of that.
- 28:58Speaker 2: But we're not too bad. Loss. This is an inferior
- 29:01Speaker 2: Panthers team after a bye. I don't care what they do.
- 29:04Speaker 2: Well they you can't. You can't let them sniff.
- 29:08Speaker 3: You on Sunday. Wow.
- 29:14Speaker 1: Interesting, let's get the book, let's raise it.

- 31:13Speaker 2: up and they were you know, I went to brunch
- 31:15Speaker 2: with them on Saturday and they were going home after
- 31:17Speaker 2: the game. Okay, Well, I leave my my sister's six
- 31:21Speaker 2: o'clock on Saturday night and uh, Page, I get a
- 31:25Speaker 2: text from Page. We leave it, we leave it, got
- 31:29Speaker 2: into it, got into it at the Savors game, got
- 31:32Speaker 2: ahead a couple of pops where we're staying. So had
- 31:36Speaker 2: the squad out a little bit on Saturday night. Nothing crazy.
- 31:39Speaker 2: We stayed on Hurdle up by the crib, showed them
- 31:41Speaker 2: around a few places, you know, hit the wine bar
- 31:45Speaker 2: at the end of the night and uh and called it.
- 31:47Speaker 2: So nothing crazy, but was not a complete clean weekend
- 31:51Speaker 2: like I I originally anticipated. And then Sunday came around
- 31:55Speaker 2: and that was just strict. It was a nice strict
- 31:57Speaker 2: ball day. Had both TVs going living June your living
- 32:01Speaker 2: boxes going in both you know, caught all the games,
- 32:04Speaker 2: got got after it and had a good, good relaxing
- 32:07Speaker 2: Sunday and then grinding into this week to get ready
- 32:10Speaker 2: for the weekend. So it was a solid by weekend,
- 32:14Speaker 2: I say, pretty relaxed. Not as relaxed as I anticipated,
- 32:18Speaker 2: but pretty relaxed.
- 32:21Speaker 3: All right.
- 32:21Speaker 1: Well on my end, I mean, last week was a
- 32:25Speaker 1: true bye week. So because it was a true bye week,
- 32:28Speaker 1: I had some stuff that I had to do. It's
- 32:30Speaker 1: a little landscaping. I'm not a landscaper, but I had
- 32:32Speaker 1: some landscaping to do at the house and picking up
- 32:35Speaker 1: weeds out of the front yard and stuff like that.
- 32:37Speaker 3: So I got Nate out there.
- 32:38Speaker 1: Now, Nate was very perturbed because Bobby was at a
- 32:41Speaker 1: sleepover and Bobby was not around for the raking. And
- 32:45Speaker 1: I was like, hey, listen, man, sometimes in life you
- 32:48Speaker 1: got to just pick up a little bit of extra slack.
- 32:49Speaker 1: So Nate helped me with the raking whiles picking up
- 32:53Speaker 1: some weeds and stuff like that. The day before on
- 32:55Speaker 1: Saturday was epic. It was epic we had. So it's
- 33:00Speaker 1: funny because we're getting ready to change the rules for
- 33:02Speaker 1: Quincy's team because the league that we're in that I
- 33:07Speaker 1: coach him on. So flag football starts on on Saturday,
- 33:11Speaker 1: and we're just we're just dominant. We're just I got
- 33:14Speaker 1: a more drills and stuff like that to get the
- 33:15Speaker 1: flag drills. So in this league, quarterback cannot run, okay,
- 33:20Speaker 1: so you the center can hand it. He can hand
- 33:23Speaker 1: he does not have to snap it because they're just
- 33:24Speaker 1: so little. So he can hand it off to the quarterback.
- 33:26Speaker 1: But then the quarterback cannot run. You've got to hand
- 33:28Speaker 1: it off or the quarterback needs to throw it. So
- 33:30Speaker 1: Quincy plays quarterback, so defensively, we were ready. As soon
- 33:35Speaker 1: as they hiked the ball, we're in the back. We
- 33:37Speaker 1: were just in the backfield, all over the backfield and
- 33:39Speaker 1: my boy rowing. Shout out to my boy rowing, h
- 33:43Speaker 1: just defect. I mean he might have been well been
- 33:44Speaker 1: Aaron Donald and he is just all in the backfield.
- 33:47Speaker 1: So as soon as they hand it off, he's grabbing flags.
- 33:50Speaker 1: I gave him the I gave him the little trophy
- 33:52Speaker 1: that they give out every week to a kid, and
- 33:54Speaker 1: one kid gets the trophy every week.
- 33:56Speaker 3: And listen, man all over the place, disruptive force, all
- 34:00Speaker 3: the backfield.
- 34:00Speaker 1: So by the time the end of the game comes
- 34:03Speaker 1: the coach from the other team, I mean they're arguing
- 34:06Speaker 1: with each other.
- 34:07Speaker 3: I mean, and this is six you flag football. They're
- 34:09Speaker 3: arguing with each other.
- 34:10Speaker 1: The yell so I'm just yelling to the parents talking
- 34:12Speaker 1: shit because you know how I am. I'm out gas lights.
- 34:14Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, they talking stuff. I'm like, noop, coach
- 34:17Speaker 1: is arguing. I said, the bears got them arguing, let's go,
- 34:20Speaker 1: let's go. All the parents are laughing and stuff like that.
- 34:23Speaker 1: By the time of the end of the game comes,
- 34:25Speaker 1: they were like, listen, next week, we are going to
- 34:29Speaker 1: change the rules and move back the line of scrimmage
- 34:31Speaker 1: where we can start to run from. And that's beneficial
- 34:34Speaker 1: for both sides because then it gives the boys a
- 34:36Speaker 1: chance to actually get a little bit of space and
- 34:38Speaker 1: stuff like that.
- 34:38Speaker 3: So it was funny.
- 34:39Speaker 1: We won on Saturday thirteen to nothing. We barely saw
- 34:44Speaker 1: the ball. We only had two possessions because the other
- 34:46Speaker 1: team had the ball so much, and yeah, they were
- 34:49Speaker 1: struggling for sure. We were all up in the backfield.
- 34:52Speaker 1: So it was really good to see Quincy played well.
- 34:55Speaker 1: But I'm actually excited for next week when you get
- 34:57Speaker 1: down here because of the fact that you get a
- 34:59Speaker 1: chance then a little bit more we'll see a little
- 35:01Speaker 1: bit more space before the rush comes.
- 35:04Speaker 3: Because my boy Rowan was in the backfield like Aaron
- 35:06Speaker 3: Donald Junior. I mean he was.
- 35:08Speaker 1: He was all in there, and the coaches were mad
- 35:10Speaker 1: and yelling and is this legal. I'm like, y'all are running.
- 35:13Speaker 1: If y'all want to pass, we can't touch the quarterback.
- 35:15Speaker 1: But if you want to throw, and nobody, I mean
- 35:17Speaker 1: nobody pay.
- 35:18Speaker 3: There's six you.
- 35:19Speaker 1: They could barely catch the ball. They can barely execute handoffs.
- 35:22Speaker 1: So we're not we're not throwing. It's a it's a
- 35:24Speaker 1: one running the ball league. Sean McDermott would be proud.
- 35:28Speaker 1: So on that game day came watched the games. Nate
- 35:32Speaker 1: put in a parlay. I let him put it in
- 35:34Speaker 1: a parlay for five bucks.
- 35:35Speaker 3: H It almost hit. It was looking good after the
- 35:37Speaker 3: one o'clock games and.
- 35:38Speaker 1: Stuff like that. It did not hit with the four
- 35:40Speaker 1: o'clock games, but it was looking good for a little while.
- 35:43Speaker 1: So he was excited about that and a little out
- 35:45Speaker 1: of interest. DT, this is it, my brother from another mother?
- 35:51Speaker 3: This is this is it? One more sleep. Let's go
- 35:55Speaker 3: over the itinerary. When do you land? What is going on?

- 36:11Speaker 1: make sure everything is good. Walked in there. Everything is perfect,

- 38:11Speaker 1: after that. I've got all the baby bambas, They've got
- 38:15Speaker 1: the kings, they are covered, they've got the princess. She
- 38:18Speaker 1: is covered and we'll head down to Tavern on the tracks.
- 38:21Speaker 1: So taver it on the tracks for those in Charlotte,
- 38:23Speaker 1: you guys already know. For those of you that are
- 38:25Speaker 1: coming down, some of the Nickel City crew might be
- 38:27Speaker 1: coming down. Tab It on the tracks is the place
- 38:29Speaker 1: that you want to be on Saturday. I promise you.
- 38:32Speaker 1: It's a Bill's Backer bar, official Bills Backer Bar. I
- 38:35Speaker 1: think the in Michigan Bar, I think that people are
- 38:38Speaker 1: from the pew or something like that. The older listen,
- 38:40Speaker 1: they are local, they are authentic. And I was telling
- 38:44Speaker 1: you it's funny because before kids, I used to frequent
- 38:47Speaker 1: to have it on the tracks very often. And what
- 38:50Speaker 1: I would do is I had a little tradition shout
- 38:52Speaker 1: out to my boy Jeff poossa Terry. We would go
- 38:54Speaker 1: there and I had my little gloves. I had my
- 38:57Speaker 1: wide receiver gloves and I would go around giving high
- 39:01Speaker 1: fives to everyone in the building. I mean everyone that
- 39:05Speaker 1: I could reach. If I couldn't reach you on the
- 39:06Speaker 1: top part, then I was I was with you in spirit.
- 39:10Speaker 1: I was giving out high fives to everybody before the
- 39:13Speaker 1: game times and games started. Excuse me and all I
- 39:16Speaker 1: would say, is it's time to go, It's time to go,
- 39:19Speaker 1: It's time to go, and getting reved up and they
- 39:20Speaker 1: play the shout song after touchdowns and stuff like that,
- 39:23Speaker 1: and it's a really really cool atmosphere.
- 39:26Speaker 3: I don't know how they're gonna house all these people.
- 39:29Speaker 1: They're gonna definitely have to kick people out because of
- 39:31Speaker 1: the fact that there are going to be so many
- 39:33Speaker 1: members of the mafia there.
- 39:34Speaker 3: But that's what DT and I will be doing. If
- 39:36Speaker 3: you are in the Charlotte area.
- 39:38Speaker 1: If you are coming down to the Charlotte area for
- 39:40Speaker 1: this game, check us out tavern on the tracks. I'll
- 39:44Speaker 1: put that in the post. I promise you you do
- 39:47Speaker 1: not want to miss it. It's gonna be the parties
- 39:48Speaker 1: of all parties. Our buddy Nick, like you said from
- 39:50Speaker 1: Queen City Vigage, will be holding the pop up there,
- 39:53Speaker 1: selling clothes, selling all the drip swag. DT, I'm not
- 39:58Speaker 1: sure I could get to Sunday if if Saturday goes left,
- 40:01Speaker 1: like I, we have to Uber, because this is it's
- 40:04Speaker 1: just too crucial, too crucial.
- 40:06Speaker 2: Uber, non negotiable. Let's get down there, have a good time.
- 40:09Speaker 2: Queen City Benches, like you said, gonna be there as well,
- 40:12Speaker 2: So we're gonna be I'm sure putting out content, you know,
- 40:15Speaker 2: with us, with them, with all the Mafia fans, I mean, Rob,
- 40:18Speaker 2: I know obviously Charlotte, Big transplant city. Anyway, I know,
- 40:22Speaker 2: like I could sit here and name probably thirty people
- 40:25Speaker 2: going down there this week.
- 40:27Speaker 3: Yeah you already.
- 40:28Speaker 2: Literally we're off the top of my head, just like yep.
- 40:30Speaker 2: He's going there, going there, going there, going like right
- 40:32Speaker 2: down the line. So it's gonna be reunion time. I got,
- 40:36Speaker 2: you know, my friends parents that live down south that
- 40:38Speaker 2: are you know, oh you're going to the game. They're
- 40:40Speaker 2: called like, everyone's gonna be trying to beat up. So
- 40:43Speaker 2: it's we're gonna have to have a happy medium, you know,
- 40:45Speaker 2: not gonna be able to see everybody. We we want
- 40:47Speaker 2: to do our thing. This is our trip, Rob, this
- 40:49Speaker 2: is you me live. This is nicol Cy Crew trip.
- 40:51Speaker 2: So we're gonna we're sorry, We're gonna take care of
- 40:53Speaker 2: ourselves first and then we'll get out to the fans
- 40:56Speaker 2: and take care.
- 40:56Speaker 3: Of what this is.
- 40:57Speaker 2: This is our trip. Maybe well, this is our our trip,
- 41:00Speaker 2: and we're gonna we're gonna have them. We're gonna have
- 41:02Speaker 2: a great time. So I think what's gonna save us Saturday,
- 41:05Speaker 2: Rob is just we're gonna get there, you know, cracking
- 41:07Speaker 2: dawn after after ball, after Quintzy's game, we had down
- 41:10Speaker 2: to the tracks, were there, you know early, it's like noon,
- 41:13Speaker 2: and so we're not gonna be out there till.
- 41:15Speaker 3: One in the morning. You know.
- 41:16Speaker 2: If we're out at dude, we're we're uh, we're a
- 41:18Speaker 2: little washed up, more washed up than we used to be.
- 41:20Speaker 2: So even though we are professional tailgaters, I feel like
- 41:23Speaker 2: the vibe and the atmosphere is gonna be real and
- 41:25Speaker 2: it's gonna, you know, it's gonna get to it. So
- 41:26Speaker 2: I think we'll be fine for game down Sunday. Obviously
- 41:29Speaker 2: still figuring out our plans for that, but we'll be
- 41:31Speaker 2: out here.
- 41:31Speaker 3: Yeah. Here's the thing. Here's the thing.
- 41:34Speaker 1: You Charlotte Panthers fans are jerks. I don't have any
- 41:38Speaker 1: other way to say it. You guys are jerks. You
- 41:40Speaker 1: check stub Hub, I've checked Ticketmaster, I've checked a seat geek.
- 41:45Speaker 3: You guys are just jerks. You guys know that we're
- 41:47Speaker 3: coming down here. You know that we take over stadiums.
- 41:50Speaker 1: There's already so many Western New Yorkers in Charlotte already
- 41:53Speaker 1: that don't have to travel, that are already here. And
- 41:56Speaker 1: what you guys are doing is you're driving these prices.
- 41:58Speaker 1: These prices are crazy. I saw my boy shout out
- 42:00Speaker 1: to my boy Lee Sean, who is from buff but
- 42:03Speaker 1: lives down here Charlie. He said, I know, I just
- 42:04Speaker 1: paid somebody's Morgan's today getting these damn tickets.
- 42:08Speaker 3: I couldnot stop laughing. That is the truth.
- 42:11Speaker 1: These tickets are crazy. I mean, the prices are crazy.
- 42:15Speaker 1: It's like, excuse me, you'd have a better time for
- 42:18Speaker 1: the playoffs. You'd have a better time grabbing a Bills
- 42:21Speaker 1: ticket for the.
- 42:21Speaker 3: Playoffs then you would. This ticket is high priced. It's expensive.
- 42:27Speaker 3: We'll see.
- 42:28Speaker 1: Plan is for now is that we're going into the game.
- 42:30Speaker 1: If we're going to the game, we'll have a fried
- 42:33Speaker 1: turkey for afterwards. If we don't go into the game,
- 42:36Speaker 1: we already know that we're not going to the game.
- 42:37Speaker 1: Nicole City Crew, what we are still doing is tailgate.
- 42:39Speaker 1: I'm gonna bring Bobby in Nate for the tailgate and
- 42:42Speaker 1: let him hang out with with Uncle DT and listen. Well,
- 42:45Speaker 1: well we'll tailgate. We'll leave around twelve twelve to ten.
- 42:48Speaker 1: We'll be back in a flash. No traffic obviously coming
- 42:51Speaker 1: the opposite way. We'll fly home back to the cripping
- 42:55Speaker 1: household and have a good time here. So listen, I'm
- 42:58Speaker 1: down for it either way. I don't know exactly how
- 43:01Speaker 1: it's gonna turn out in respects to the tickets or not,
- 43:03Speaker 1: but I know for sure that some people, some of
