- 0:06Speaker 1: number eighty two of the so called sports channelists. Josh,
- 0:09Speaker 1: how you doing.
- 0:11Speaker 2: I'm doing good? After another successful win for the Chiefs,
- 0:13Speaker 2: we moved to eleven and one, you know, first place
- 0:16Speaker 2: in the AFC. Some people are gonna have their opinions,
- 0:18Speaker 2: but some people just aren't winners, you know. So it's
- 0:21Speaker 2: just it just it just works out in winners favors sometime,
- 0:25Speaker 2: and you know, I'm pretty happy about it, but we
- 0:27Speaker 2: need a couple of teams to start losing, like the Bills,
- 0:29Speaker 2: and everyone else is losing but the Bills. So let's
- 0:32Speaker 2: let's get let's get that on track Buffalo where we
- 0:35Speaker 2: kind of just y'all kind of just go where you
- 0:37Speaker 2: all are supposed to be below the Chiefs, but a
- 0:40Speaker 2: little bit more, you know. So it's just like, let's
- 0:43Speaker 2: start losing and my life will be a whole lot better.
- 0:46Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 0:46Speaker 1: No. And then also one more thing, I know we
- 0:48Speaker 1: didn't record last week, but just shout out to Josh
- 0:51Speaker 1: for another year. They have another year, number twenty three,

- 1:26Speaker 1: let's go to get started. Usually we start off for
- 1:28Speaker 1: Monday night football, but we're gonna switch it up because
- 1:31Speaker 1: it's college football now, and so the Top twelve it's
- 1:34Speaker 1: about to be released today, but I'm gonna give you
- 1:36Speaker 1: the top twelve from the AP. Usually they're pretty accurate
- 1:40Speaker 1: as far as they're usually hand in hand with the
- 1:41Speaker 1: college football playoff. But I just want to see what
- 1:44Speaker 1: you think, Josh. So they have Oregon one, Texas to
- 1:47Speaker 1: Penn State three, Notre Dame four, Georgia five, Tennessee six,
- 1:52Speaker 1: Ohio State seven, SMU eight, Indiana nine, Boise State ten,
- 1:57Speaker 1: Alabama eleven, Arizona State twelve. So what are you thinking
- 2:00Speaker 1: about that after reading that Top twelve?
- 2:04Speaker 2: I think after I think Texas is right where they're
- 2:07Speaker 2: supposed to be as of right now. I think I
- 2:10Speaker 2: think their one loss coming from Georgia is a big loss.
- 2:14Speaker 2: It's not a small loss where it's a lesser team. Honestly,
- 2:17Speaker 2: I think george is better because I mean they proved it.
- 2:21Speaker 2: I mean they're gonna play again, aren't they playing? Yeah,
- 2:23Speaker 2: in the SEC Championship, So that's gonna that's gonna be
- 2:26Speaker 2: a big I think Georgia loses, that they're out, Texas wins,
- 2:30Speaker 2: that Texas loses, I think they still have a chance
- 2:33Speaker 2: of being in the top twelve. But other than that,
- 2:37Speaker 2: I just think Texas's strength of schedule wasn't really there
- 2:40Speaker 2: all season I think, and also this last game that
- 2:43Speaker 2: they won versus Texas A and M was really like
- 2:45Speaker 2: kind of just like, Okay, they are one of the
- 2:48Speaker 2: top teams and they deserve to be in this top three,
- 2:50Speaker 2: top two spot. So I think that that's correct position
- 2:53Speaker 2: as of right now. Notre Dame's a little I just
- 2:58Speaker 2: have a hard time with. I think until Notre Dame
- 2:59Speaker 2: gets into an actual conference, I'll respect them a little
- 3:02Speaker 2: bit more. You know, where they're not taking and choosing
- 3:04Speaker 2: who they actually play but they are eleven to one.
- 3:07Speaker 2: They have beaten some good comp some good competition, but
- 3:12Speaker 2: other than that, and then there's my college football playoff
- 3:15Speaker 2: pick right there, Tennessee. You know, so I'm not mad
- 3:17Speaker 2: at it. I think they they'll they'll bounce back a
- 3:20Speaker 2: little bit maybe, and then other than that, Indiana's right,
- 3:24Speaker 2: I think SMU is right. Ohio State, they they they
- 3:28Speaker 2: got some stuff to figure out right now. But but
- 3:32Speaker 2: the fact that Alabama's still in there with the fighting chance,
- 3:35Speaker 2: We'll see how that goes when when all of it's
- 3:38Speaker 2: done with the bowl games. I think that's my Actually,
- 3:42Speaker 2: Miami's Miami is out there in their number fourteen now,
- 3:45Speaker 2: so they've dropped very significantly in the AP rankings.
- 3:51Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's just biased as far as being
- 3:54Speaker 1: in their first and foremost because they have three losses.
- 3:57Speaker 1: Everybody else has one loss or two losses that are
- 4:00Speaker 1: actually tough games. Here and Bama after what they did
- 4:04Speaker 1: to Oklahoma, and I can't think of other losses on
- 4:08Speaker 1: the top of my head, but I just don't think
- 4:10Speaker 1: that they should be in there. There should be the
- 4:12Speaker 1: Miami that's in there. But also what does help is
- 4:16Speaker 1: South Carolina being thirteen that makes Bama look a lot better.
- 4:20Speaker 1: But you said you said this before we started the
- 4:22Speaker 1: bottom we're talking about this. It's all gonna depend on
- 4:25Speaker 1: bowl games, bowl games. It's gonna decide we're actually everybody's
- 4:29Speaker 1: gonna end up because the Big twelve chip Iowa State,
- 4:32Speaker 1: Arizona State. If Arizona State loses, they're gonna be out.
- 4:36Speaker 1: Then you have SEC Georgia, Texas. I still think Georgia
- 4:39Speaker 1: will make it because here's here's my thing. If Georgia loses,
- 4:43Speaker 1: because Texas and Georgia did play each other, and if
- 4:46Speaker 1: they both have a loss, yeah, I'm thinking kind of
- 4:49Speaker 1: like a Washington and Oregon kind of like if Washington
- 4:53Speaker 1: and Oregon they did that last year, I think they split,
- 4:56Speaker 1: they both make the playoffs, and then the other one.
- 4:59Speaker 1: You could s say the ACC Championship Clemson SMU. SMU loses,
- 5:03Speaker 1: they're out, so there's still chances for Miami to get
- 5:07Speaker 1: in or the only one that I see for sure
- 5:10Speaker 1: that's not crazy. Both of these teams are gonna make
- 5:12Speaker 1: it is Penn State versus Oregon because they're both in
- 5:16Speaker 1: the top five. And you could say, okay, well, Penn
- 5:19Speaker 1: State they lost to Ohio State and Oregon, or if
- 5:22Speaker 1: Oregon loses, you lost to Penn State, the third ranked team.
- 5:25Speaker 2: But yeah, I think they're pretty safe. I think both
- 5:27Speaker 2: those teams are pretty safe in making it right now.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Yeah, no for sure, but all right, and then let's
- 5:32Speaker 1: pull up the bracket that you end up finding. So
- 5:35Speaker 1: so exactly how the college football playoff works?
- 5:38Speaker 3: Wait? What?
- 5:40Speaker 2: Oh, just saying Miami that this is weird.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's it's weird. But you know what, I'm thinking,
- 5:46Speaker 1: They're expecting SMU to lose to Clemson. That that's what
- 5:52Speaker 1: I'm I'm assuming. So, but so as of right now,
- 5:55Speaker 1: this was this was posted yesterday. So it has a
- 5:59Speaker 1: first four teams. What's the first four teams they get
- 6:02Speaker 1: to buy? It'll be Oregon, Texas, Miami, and Boise State
- 6:06Speaker 1: as the teams with the buy. Then you'd have Tennessee
- 6:09Speaker 1: versus Georgia, Arizona State versus Ohio State, Indiana versus Penn State,
- 6:14Speaker 1: sm U versus Notre Dame. So if you just had
- 6:17Speaker 1: to predict which teams would make it out and go
- 6:19Speaker 1: into the top four or going to the next round,
- 6:22Speaker 1: who would those be?
- 6:24Speaker 2: Uh? I think, oh, who would make in the top four?
- 6:27Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna go with in this situation, I
- 6:30Speaker 2: think Oregon and Boise State I think are locks. I
- 6:33Speaker 2: think to be in the top four. I think Texas
- 6:35Speaker 2: and Miami still have some stuff as of right now,
- 6:38Speaker 2: Miami in this in this ranking, I think both those teams,
- 6:42Speaker 2: it's gonna be determined on their bowl games, on how
- 6:44Speaker 2: they actually play in their in their in their conference championships,
- 6:48Speaker 2: and so that I think that that's that could probably
- 6:51Speaker 2: change around. And I think on the other side, with
- 6:55Speaker 2: the other teams, Arizona State is gonna be a pretty
- 6:58Speaker 2: tricky one for me. And then the I just think
- 7:02Speaker 2: Indian and SMU they kind of are like short. I
- 7:05Speaker 2: think they're they're gonna be on the short end of
- 7:07Speaker 2: like if they do lose a game or a conference
- 7:09Speaker 2: or a bowl game, that they're gonna they're probably gonna
- 7:11Speaker 2: fall out the way because just just due to a
- 7:13Speaker 2: name recognition.
- 7:15Speaker 1: Yeah, no, that's that's very very true. And so there's
- 7:19Speaker 1: still teams like South Carolina, Miami, Ole, miss iowill stay.
- 7:24Speaker 1: I say that's the biggest case. You have their ranked
- 7:27Speaker 1: sixteenth right now in the AP and Arizona State's rank twelve.
- 7:30Speaker 1: You could say if they beat Iowa State beats Arizona State,
- 7:33Speaker 1: you could say they flip and they jump into the
- 7:36Speaker 1: top twelve. But do you see any drastic movement. Do
- 7:40Speaker 1: you see anybody collapsing pretty much with these bowl games
- 7:44Speaker 1: here and going out of the top twelve.
- 7:47Speaker 2: Maybe Miami. I feel like they've had a they've had
- 7:49Speaker 2: a pretty tough last couple of weeks, and I think
- 7:52Speaker 2: you're gonna see your confidence. Your confidence has to be
- 7:55Speaker 2: a little a little down, and so I think if
- 7:57Speaker 2: they drop another one, they're gonna skyrock just I mean,
- 8:00Speaker 2: they're gonna just fall out of the whole thing entirely.
- 8:04Speaker 1: Mm hmm, yeah, I know for sure. And then all right,
- 8:07Speaker 1: last thing, so it's officially regular season is officially over,
- 8:13Speaker 1: so ball games doesn't go into regular season stats. Who's
- 8:17Speaker 1: your heisman? Is it Ashton Genty or is it Travis Hunter?
- 8:21Speaker 1: Because it really came down to those two right there.
- 8:24Speaker 1: Dylan Gambler really didn't have a chance when yours know,
- 8:28Speaker 1: cam Ward kind of fell off towards the very end.
- 8:31Speaker 1: So who's your heisman out of those two? Because it's tough.
- 8:35Speaker 2: I think I think gency's gonna have I know, the
- 8:39Speaker 2: Bowl games like they're gonna get picked before the national
- 8:41Speaker 2: championship and stuff like that. But Gency does have a
- 8:45Speaker 2: better chance of showing who he is to win another
- 8:47Speaker 2: to put another case, because it's not like the NFL
- 8:49Speaker 2: where it just where it just cancels out, you know,
- 8:53Speaker 2: like of this truth right after nothing after the regular fusion.
- 8:56Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, but this one. You can take an account
- 9:00Speaker 2: their bowl games, and you can take into account. Let's
- 9:03Speaker 2: and GenZ having the advantage. Who's gonna be when he
- 9:06Speaker 2: is going to be in the playoffs, so he's gonna
- 9:08Speaker 2: have that little bit of advantage. But I understand what
- 9:13Speaker 2: Hashington GenZ is doing as like as the star running back,
- 9:18Speaker 2: the guy leading his team, sitting out of certain quarters,
- 9:20Speaker 2: you know, and still dominating. But what Travis Hunter is
- 9:23Speaker 2: doing is I think a whole lot harder.
- 9:26Speaker 3: I don't.
- 9:26Speaker 2: I don't, I don't, I can't see. I think Travis
- 9:30Speaker 2: Hunter is the best player in all of football, in
- 9:31Speaker 2: all of college football, Ashton Jitsey is the best running
- 9:34Speaker 2: back in all of college football, Don't get me wrong,
- 9:36Speaker 2: But he's not playing both sides of the ball, guarding
- 9:39Speaker 2: the roerle receiver on the other side and being the
- 9:41Speaker 2: role and receiver on on the offensive side, plus playing
- 9:43Speaker 2: special teams, never getting off of the field, having four
- 9:47Speaker 2: interceptions last game, scored three touchdowns on his own, had
- 9:50Speaker 2: ten I believe before that, eleven hundred receiving yards, all
- 9:55Speaker 2: while playing the entire football game. I just don't think
- 9:57Speaker 2: there's a player that makes a bigger impact on his
- 10:00Speaker 2: team then Travis Hunter. I understand Shadear Sanders needs to
- 10:03Speaker 2: get a lot more love when it comes to the
- 10:04Speaker 2: Heisman voting. Also, I think he's kind of fallen off
- 10:06Speaker 2: just due to everything around him, but having that quarterback.
- 10:10Speaker 2: But Travis Hunter, I just don't think. I think it's
- 10:13Speaker 2: really close. I'm not mad at GENC wins. I think
- 10:15Speaker 2: are GENC wins. I'll be happy. I think both deserve
- 10:17Speaker 2: to win. But if you're asking me to pick, I'm
- 10:19Speaker 2: picking the guy that never comes off the field.
- 10:22Speaker 1: Yeah, I know for sure. And then okay, I just
- 10:24Speaker 1: found some stats right here. Travis Hunter's total season ninety
- 10:27Speaker 1: two catches, almost twelve hundred yards, fifteen touchdowns, thirty one tackles,
- 10:32Speaker 1: eleven PPUs, four interceptions, one force.
- 10:34Speaker 2: Fumble, So that people are gonna say he's not leaving
- 10:37Speaker 2: the leading college football and interception Pbu's they're not throwing
- 10:41Speaker 2: his weight, you know, like there's there's just a when
- 10:43Speaker 2: you're a lockdown, your stats are gonna look aren't gonna
- 10:45Speaker 2: look pretty at all, Like I think there was. I
- 10:47Speaker 2: mean in the NFL, I don't like, I hate Teer
- 10:50Speaker 2: McDuffie's never had an interception in his entire career. Durel
- 10:53Speaker 2: Reeves didn't have I believe, like interception like two straight
- 10:55Speaker 2: seasons or something like that. Like there's there's guys that
- 10:58Speaker 2: are like cham Bailey. I believe like he he was
- 11:01Speaker 2: never in the top in like PBUs or because no
- 11:03Speaker 2: one throws their way. And I think that that's the
- 11:05Speaker 2: thing that Travis hunters and is basically being on an
- 11:08Speaker 2: island in the entire game.
- 11:10Speaker 1: Yea, for sure. It's just it's just crazy because when
- 11:16Speaker 1: you look at Ashton Genty's stats to three hundred and
- 11:18Speaker 1: twelve carries, almost twenty three hundred rushing yards in twenty
- 11:22Speaker 1: nine touchdowns.
- 11:23Speaker 3: So yeah, no, there's.
- 11:24Speaker 1: Definitely not there's definitely not a wrong answer here in
- 11:28Speaker 1: my opinion. And I saw something. I was trying to
- 11:31Speaker 1: find the stat but it said Ashton gency he leads
- 11:34Speaker 1: a college football and rushing yards and as far as
- 11:37Speaker 1: yards after contact. If you just included his yards after contact,
- 11:41Speaker 1: he'd be second in college football as far as rushing yards.
- 11:45Speaker 1: That's how crazy it is.
- 11:46Speaker 2: So we're looking at the athletic. The athletic there they
- 11:54Speaker 2: all twenty seven of their writers and editors voted. All
- 11:56Speaker 2: twenty seven voted for Travis Hunter first. So yeah, and
- 12:00Speaker 2: there was two first place votes for Ashton gen T
- 12:03Speaker 2: and one for kem Ward.
- 12:06Speaker 1: Tho was one first place vote for kem Ward.
- 12:08Speaker 3: That is crazy.
- 12:09Speaker 2: I don't understand how Shadeer is not up there, Like
- 12:12Speaker 2: if we're really looking at stats and like County, I mean,
- 12:15Speaker 2: Miami's been losing, you know, so it's kind of like, yeah,
- 12:18Speaker 2: they only.
- 12:18Speaker 1: Have one more loss in Colorado. So and you could
- 12:23Speaker 1: kind of say an easier schedule, you kind of say
- 12:25Speaker 1: easier schedule.
- 12:26Speaker 3: So yeah, so yeah, I know.
- 12:28Speaker 1: But all right, well let's go and move on to
- 12:32Speaker 1: NFL football here, and before we start a little bit
- 12:35Speaker 1: NFL football here, since that time of the year, it's
- 12:38Speaker 1: almost playoff time, which this NFL season it's gone by
- 12:41Speaker 1: a pretty damn quick. I'm gonna list you just standings
- 12:44Speaker 1: right here for you, Josh so As of right now.
- 12:46Speaker 1: In the AFC, so Kansas City and Buffalo they clinched
- 12:49Speaker 1: a playoff spot, but why not, it's Kansas City, Buffalo,
- 12:53Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and then the Houston Texans. As far as the
- 12:55Speaker 1: three wild cards, it's the Chargers, Ravens, and Broncos. In
- 12:59Speaker 1: the Hunt, it's a Colts, Dolphins, and Bengals. As far
- 13:03Speaker 1: as in the in the National League, you have Detroit Philly,
- 13:07Speaker 1: then you have Seattle in Atlanta for your two or
- 13:10Speaker 1: your division leaders. The wild card is Minnesota, Green Bay, Washington.
- 13:14Speaker 1: In the Hut right now, it's Tampa, Arizona and the Rams.
- 13:18Speaker 1: So all right, with that being said, let's go and
- 13:21Speaker 1: get started with the Monday night football game Cleveland versus Denver,
- 13:25Speaker 1: in which this game it was a shootout the Broncos.
- 13:27Speaker 1: They won forty one thirty two.
- 13:29Speaker 2: Any takeaways from this one, Man, you gotta feel for
- 13:33Speaker 2: Jerry Judy coming back into Denver on this one. I mean,
- 13:36Speaker 2: dude had the game of his entire life and still
- 13:38Speaker 2: ended up losing. I mean, I think Jamis Winston's proving
- 13:41Speaker 2: that he is the starting quarterback in the NFL. Sure,
- 13:43Speaker 2: he does make his mistakes, and he did make a
- 13:45Speaker 2: mistake at the end of the game. They ended up losing,
- 13:49Speaker 2: but four hundred and ninety seven and four touchdowns. I know,
- 13:52Speaker 2: with the three interceptions, but dude, you're you're throwing the
- 13:54Speaker 2: rock all over the field and you're getting a lot
- 13:56Speaker 2: of people involved. I think, Elijah, I just feel like
- 13:59Speaker 2: these guys are playing a lot more for Jamis Winston
- 14:02Speaker 2: and they probably should have did this earlier if we're
- 14:03Speaker 2: being completely honest, and maybe who knows where the Browns
- 14:06Speaker 2: would be right now. But as far as the Broncos side,
- 14:08Speaker 2: this defense steps up. This defense is stepped up in
- 14:11Speaker 2: I mean, they were getting torched all game basically, but
- 14:14Speaker 2: when it mattered the most, they stepped up and got
- 14:16Speaker 2: an interception and stilled the game. And then we're gonna
- 14:19Speaker 2: look at Boenicks. Bonicks kind of didn't have the greatest
- 14:22Speaker 2: of games that he's had so up to this point
- 14:24Speaker 2: with the touchdown interception ratio, but Courtland Sutton and Marvin
- 14:29Speaker 2: Mims really stepped up. Marvin Mims is starting to look
- 14:31Speaker 2: like what his potential was last year in this game,
- 14:35Speaker 2: and then Jelim mcgaughlin. They kind of just think, I
- 14:38Speaker 2: think this is the way to go. I think he's
- 14:40Speaker 2: he's the more explosive, more consistent back, and I think
- 14:44Speaker 2: having him with the fourteen carries in eighty four yards
- 14:47Speaker 2: kind of helped the Broncos stay within this one. It
- 14:49Speaker 2: kind of control the game even when Bonicks had an
- 14:51Speaker 2: off night.
- 14:52Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I'm gonna get sorted with that last point.
- 14:55Speaker 1: As far as Sean Payton, you don't know what's running
- 14:58Speaker 1: back he's gonna use because one K. One week it's
- 15:00Speaker 1: Devonte Williams, other week it's Tandrekstemn. This week it was
- 15:03Speaker 1: just Jalil mcloffin's turning like you're saying, Yeah, bon Nixy struggled.
- 15:07Speaker 1: Other than he had a couple of good plays, but
- 15:11Speaker 1: the biggest play he had was at ninety three yards
- 15:13Speaker 1: strike to Marvin Mans, which that was just on a
- 15:15Speaker 1: pure rope right there. And I think this as far
- 15:19Speaker 1: as from the brown side, this is just a Jamis
- 15:21Speaker 1: Winston experience. We've known this ever since Tampa Bay. He's
- 15:24Speaker 1: gonna throw for a bunch of yards, bunch of touchdowns,
- 15:27Speaker 1: keep you in the game, but he's also gonna cost
- 15:29Speaker 1: you the game. And almost three pick six is by
- 15:32Speaker 1: the Broncos, which is crazy. I've never seen that before.
- 15:35Speaker 1: I don't know if that's a stat there, but I
- 15:38Speaker 1: think this is as far as most receiving yards versus
- 15:42Speaker 1: a team or your former team. Jerry Judy, he broke
- 15:44Speaker 1: that by like twenty five yards. I think the other
- 15:46Speaker 1: one was too. But I don't have much else to
- 15:49Speaker 1: say about this because Denver they're a playoff team. Browns,
- 15:52Speaker 1: They're just that team that's playing spoiler right now because
- 15:56Speaker 1: they have nothing really to gain here. But all right,
- 15:59Speaker 1: let's go to move to the Sunday night football game
- 16:01Speaker 1: in which it was a San Francisco forty nine Ers
- 16:04Speaker 1: versus the Buffalo Bills, the second snow game of the year.
- 16:07Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills. They win thirty five to ten.
- 16:10Speaker 2: Any takeaways here, I think this is the beginning of
- 16:14Speaker 2: the end of the San Francisco forty nine ers. I
- 16:16Speaker 2: mean I said this at the beginning of the season also,
- 16:18Speaker 2: so like I I I gall that this was this
- 16:21Speaker 2: was abound happens. Yeah, I just think McCaffrey's getting injured.
- 16:27Speaker 2: Deebo George, like these guys have to be drained, you know,
- 16:30Speaker 2: like there has to be a point where you play late.
- 16:33Speaker 2: Every single you play deep into the to the to
- 16:36Speaker 2: the season. Every season, you're playing in the conference championships,
- 16:39Speaker 2: you're playing in the super Bowl, you're playing in two
- 16:41Speaker 2: super Bowls in four years, conference championship every single year.
- 16:45Speaker 2: But what do you have to show for it? Absolutely nothing,
- 16:48Speaker 2: Like there's nothing to show, there's no super Bowl. And
- 16:50Speaker 2: that's got to be draining for a team when you
- 16:52Speaker 2: get to that, when you get to the to the
- 16:54Speaker 2: peak of what you can get to and then just
- 16:56Speaker 2: lose you just like it's it. And that hap for
- 16:59Speaker 2: that to happen four years in a row, five years
- 17:01Speaker 2: in a row, the Niners gotta they gotta be tired.
- 17:03Speaker 2: And I think that's what we're seeing right now. It
- 17:05Speaker 2: just doesn't look like a team that wants to fight anymore.
- 17:07Speaker 2: It doesn't look like a team that cares. We saw
- 17:09Speaker 2: guys letting up on tackles this week. I understand the
- 17:11Speaker 2: conditions aren't in their favor in this one, it's in
- 17:14Speaker 2: Buffalo's favor, but there was times where guys are just
- 17:16Speaker 2: letting guys run by them. That like there was that
- 17:19Speaker 2: various ward let. I think it was Ray David. It
- 17:22Speaker 2: might be tripping he let he just gave up on
- 17:24Speaker 2: the tackle. It was Ray Davis. He run into the line.
- 17:27Speaker 2: He just kind of just jobbed to him and like, oh,
- 17:29Speaker 2: you scored. And there was that pitchback with Amari Cooper
- 17:33Speaker 2: to to Josh Allen. There's three guys right there, you know,
- 17:37Speaker 2: like I understand, like you gotta make a play on that.
- 17:39Speaker 2: Just the Fortniners look defeated right now. Jordan Mason goes,
- 17:42Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey's done for the rest of the season. Jordan
- 17:44Speaker 2: Mason's on IR for four weeks. They're gonna turn it
- 17:46Speaker 2: over to the rookie and the running backside. So it's
- 17:50Speaker 2: it's tough for them. You know, they're they're only getting older,
- 17:52Speaker 2: they're not getting younger. It's it's time. I think it's
- 17:54Speaker 2: time to start figuring out certain things with this team
- 17:57Speaker 2: and if you want to go into a different direction
- 17:59Speaker 2: or if you just want to keep going and run
- 18:01Speaker 2: it back. But as far as the Bills, they're playing
- 18:05Speaker 2: good football. They're playing good football. I mean, I'm not
- 18:07Speaker 2: saying I've never said they were playing bad football. I
- 18:09Speaker 2: just don't, like, you know, like I mean, I think
- 18:11Speaker 2: they are the second best team in the AFC, you know,
- 18:13Speaker 2: behind us. They did beat us, but that happens every season,
- 18:16Speaker 2: you know, and I think we still have our things
- 18:17Speaker 2: to figure out, which it we'll get into later. But
- 18:20Speaker 2: Josh Allen that he didn't do too much in this game.
- 18:22Speaker 2: I think the conditions kind of he played smart in
- 18:24Speaker 2: these conditions. I think he's a quarterback built for these
- 18:26Speaker 2: type of conditions. Also, you know, you know, the strong arm, bigger,
- 18:29Speaker 2: bigger running, bigger quarterback, and he's able to do a
- 18:32Speaker 2: lot of things. Got a receiving touchdown in this one
- 18:34Speaker 2: technically because the pitchback, So he kind of broke fantasy
- 18:37Speaker 2: football a little bit. James Connor, I mean, James Cook
- 18:40Speaker 2: had that big first half. You know, uh he kind
- 18:42Speaker 2: of I believe didn't he get hurt in the second
- 18:44Speaker 2: time he did or he just stopped getting the ball.
- 18:46Speaker 2: He just stopping the ball, So I felt like he
- 18:50Speaker 2: was hurt. But you know, he he had that big
- 18:53Speaker 2: first half, especially that big that big sixty five yard
- 18:56Speaker 2: touchdown kind of put them kind that's got to be
- 18:59Speaker 2: the moralizing it. Yeah, Yeah, he's gotta be demoralizing for
- 19:03Speaker 2: a defense. And then when you can turn over to
- 19:04Speaker 2: Ray Davis and him also have a big day, especially
- 19:07Speaker 2: in those type of snowy conditions that win the run
- 19:09Speaker 2: game is clicking, You're probably gonna win the football game.
- 19:12Speaker 1: Yeah, no, for sure. And then thank you for reminding
- 19:14Speaker 1: about that stat. I was gonna bring up Josh Allen.
- 19:16Speaker 1: He's the first person to run, pass and catch a
- 19:20Speaker 1: touchdown in an NFL game ever. And like you're saying
- 19:24Speaker 1: last week, two weeks ago, no surprisingly not No, they
- 19:27Speaker 1: were they were rushing, they were rushing and receiving and
- 19:30Speaker 1: he didn't throw one surprisingly which also, yeah, I think
- 19:34Speaker 1: Taysom Hill he's out for the year. Also, I don't
- 19:37Speaker 1: know if that's for sure, but I'll get into that
- 19:39Speaker 1: in the second. But just two different teams going in
- 19:42Speaker 1: two separate ways, Bills and looks like they're on a
- 19:45Speaker 1: trajectory for maybe a super Bowl run first time in
- 19:47Speaker 1: a while in the San Francisco forty nine ers. Just
- 19:50Speaker 1: these last two games against real teams, against the Green
- 19:53Speaker 1: Bay Packers against the Buffalo Bills and not ideal conditions,
- 19:57Speaker 1: and they end up losing. And here's there's one thing
- 20:00Speaker 1: I have to say, Rock Purdy, he's not on a
- 20:03Speaker 1: contract here technically, but the following year he's going to
- 20:05Speaker 1: be on a contract. Here, I say you let the
- 20:08Speaker 1: contract play out. There's no way you end up paying
- 20:10Speaker 1: this guy what Dak Prescott is getting, what Joe Burrow, what.
- 20:14Speaker 3: Justin Herbert is getting.
- 20:15Speaker 1: You're gonna have to let him go on a one
- 20:18Speaker 1: year prove it deal pretty much. Because McCaffrey, it's a
- 20:22Speaker 1: PCO injury. He's probably not going to be back till
- 20:24Speaker 1: late next year. Again, what's even at that. I think
- 20:27Speaker 1: there's no point of coming back. Coming back, I say,
- 20:30Speaker 1: you just get fully healthy because look what happened to
- 20:33Speaker 1: him this year. He end up overcompensating hurting his knee.
- 20:36Speaker 1: So deebo, I don't think he's coming back after this year.
- 20:39Speaker 1: I you he's hurt.
- 20:40Speaker 3: So.
- 20:41Speaker 1: I know there's a bunch of injuries on this team.
- 20:43Speaker 1: But if your quarterback is that good, if your quarterback
- 20:46Speaker 1: is that good and deserves that fifty to sixty million
- 20:49Speaker 1: dollar contract, you should be able to overcome those things.
- 20:52Speaker 1: And obviously he can't. So so I don't know. I'm
- 20:58Speaker 1: just saying it sounds crazy right now, but San Francisco
- 21:03Speaker 1: they're better off. Well, they're not going to try to
- 21:04Speaker 1: lose these games on purpose, but it'll be better for
- 21:07Speaker 1: them if they end up losing the rest of these games,
- 21:09Speaker 1: getting the higher draft pick and building up a little
- 21:12Speaker 1: bit more, maybe you could make your last run next year.
- 21:15Speaker 1: But all right, well, let's go ah and move on
- 21:18Speaker 1: to this next game here, which this game it was,
- 21:21Speaker 1: It was pretty much the most hyped up game of
- 21:24Speaker 1: this week. It was the Philadelphia Eagles versus the Baltimore
- 21:27Speaker 1: Ravens in which it's in Baltimore. The Eagles ended up
- 21:30Speaker 1: winning twenty four to nineteen. Eagles are now ten and two,
- 21:34Speaker 1: Ravens are now eight and five. Any takeaways from this.
- 21:37Speaker 2: One, I mean, are you ready to admit something?
- 21:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm ready to admit something.
- 21:44Speaker 2: For sure.
- 21:45Speaker 1: I was wrong about the Eagles one hundred percent for
- 21:48Speaker 1: sure for sure.
- 21:50Speaker 2: I think I think Saquon Barkley is the game changer.
- 21:52Speaker 2: I think I think he right now he's the MVP
- 21:55Speaker 2: of the league. I think I think so far this season,
- 21:58Speaker 2: and I think running back starting dependent on a quarterback,
- 22:01Speaker 2: so he definitely does have a great chance of winning,
- 22:03Speaker 2: of being the first running back since ap to walk
- 22:06Speaker 2: away with MVP. And I think this is the year
- 22:08Speaker 2: that it happens. I think I think you see the change.
- 22:11Speaker 2: I think you I think we know The Eagles have
- 22:13Speaker 2: been a good football team over the last couple of years.
- 22:14Speaker 2: They've been in the fight, they've been in the playoffs,
- 22:16Speaker 2: made it to a super Bowl and lost. I had
- 22:17Speaker 2: to throw that in there, sorry, but the uh uh
- 22:22Speaker 2: with the Saquon they look at like a whole different animal.
- 22:25Speaker 2: They look like a whole different beast. They don't They
- 22:27Speaker 2: don't have to rely on Jalen Hurts making complete decisions.
- 22:29Speaker 2: I mean, I think that was the problem with the
- 22:31Speaker 2: last couple last year where they put a lot on
- 22:33Speaker 2: his shoulders and it was way too early for that.
- 22:35Speaker 2: And I don't think he's that type of quarterback where
- 22:36Speaker 2: you could just rely upon his arm decision making entirely.
- 22:40Speaker 2: He's a good quarterback, don't get me wrong. Yet, You're
- 22:41Speaker 2: not gonna who you're gonna replace that's better than Jalen
- 22:44Speaker 2: Hurts on your team. Probably probably no one that's available,
- 22:46Speaker 2: No one that's available is better than Jalen Hurts, especially
- 22:49Speaker 2: in this free agency coming up. So yeah, you I
- 22:53Speaker 2: think having a running back that can do it all.
- 22:54Speaker 2: They've had good running backs like DeAndre Swift. They've had
- 22:57Speaker 2: good running backs like Miles Sanders when he was playing
- 22:59Speaker 2: really good, good football for them. But Sekwon Barkley is
- 23:03Speaker 2: a whole other level of running back, and I think
- 23:04Speaker 2: you can see that this team is opening up a
- 23:07Speaker 2: lot more a J. Brown. Every time every game he's
- 23:09Speaker 2: played this year, they haven't lost. Davonta Smith's had a
- 23:11Speaker 2: good season this this so far this year. He didn't
- 23:13Speaker 2: play in this one. But it's scary because everyone, everyone is,
- 23:17Speaker 2: it's playing at a high level right now, even Dallas Goder,
- 23:20Speaker 2: he's playing some good football. He's not gonna light you
- 23:22Speaker 2: up on the scoreboard, but on the in the box score.
- 23:24Speaker 2: But what he does on the field, blocking, getting open,
- 23:27Speaker 2: creating mismatches, allowing other guys to eat. I think this
- 23:30Speaker 2: team's fit for a run this year, and I think
- 23:33Speaker 2: it's gonna be them in the Lions when it comes
- 23:35Speaker 2: to it, to the end of the playoffs, because I
- 23:38Speaker 2: think I think they're heading for a collision. Of course,
- 23:40Speaker 2: these two teams, and as far as the Ravens, I
- 23:42Speaker 2: love to see it, you know, eight and five, you know,
- 23:44Speaker 2: just just go further down, play in that divisional round,
- 23:47Speaker 2: another chance at losing. But they are playing I think
- 23:50Speaker 2: I don't think they're I don't think it's a lot
- 23:51Speaker 2: to take away. I think I think Lamar and Derrick
- 23:54Speaker 2: Henry they they they have that thing, but this defense
- 23:58Speaker 2: is killing him right now. I don't I don't understand
- 24:00Speaker 2: how the falloff became such a fall off. I understand
- 24:03Speaker 2: Kyle Hamilton is dealing with stuff. Marlin Humphrey, his injuries
- 24:07Speaker 2: have definitely caught up to him because he's no longer
- 24:09Speaker 2: the same cornerback he used to be. I just feel
- 24:12Speaker 2: like this team, this defense, has a lot, has a
- 24:15Speaker 2: lot that they need to that they need to figure out,
- 24:17Speaker 2: because right now they're holding back this offense and this team,
- 24:20Speaker 2: I think from doing anything real and special.
- 24:23Speaker 1: Well, I'll start with the Ravens right here. I think
- 24:25Speaker 1: that just it's just another big game where the Ravens
- 24:29Speaker 1: they don't end up pointing. And I know you can't
- 24:31Speaker 1: blame it all under Lamar Jackson, but when it gets
- 24:34Speaker 1: to the point where you're not winning any of these
- 24:36Speaker 1: big time games, yes, there's coaching, there's coaching, for sure,
- 24:39Speaker 1: but the quarterback has to find a way to get
- 24:42Speaker 1: it done. And also one thing, taking away your biggest weapon, yourself,
- 24:46Speaker 1: you being hesitant to run, also costs you the game
- 24:50Speaker 1: here too, because there's times where the pocket collapse and
- 24:53Speaker 1: you stayed in the pocket, try to make that extra play. Yes,
- 24:56Speaker 1: that's good for sure, but you have to use your superpower.
- 24:59Speaker 1: You have to use superpowered within the game, and I
- 25:02Speaker 1: think he just took that away from himself. And I
- 25:05Speaker 1: think the biggest thing why I think the Eagles are
- 25:09Speaker 1: now super Bowl threats. I think they're the best team
- 25:11Speaker 1: in the NFC. Now for sure. I know you're not
- 25:13Speaker 1: gonna agree with that, but I think for sure because
- 25:16Speaker 1: Derrick Henry was damn near unstoppable before coming into this game.
- 25:20Speaker 1: The Philadelphia Eagles there front seven, not Week one. Yeah, no,
- 25:25Speaker 1: you're right. But as far as Zach vond and the
- 25:29Speaker 1: Kobe Dean, this linebackering corps that they revamped just in
- 25:32Speaker 1: a year, this is one of the best linebacking corps
- 25:35Speaker 1: in the league.
- 25:36Speaker 2: And yeah, yeah, oh yeah, I know.
- 25:39Speaker 1: Kenyon, Mitchell, Cooper, Dejen Cooper Degen and then Reid Blinking
- 25:43Speaker 1: Ship se or CJ. Gardner, Johnson, Darius Slave. So you
- 25:48Speaker 1: have you rebuilt this entire back seven in this offseason
- 25:53Speaker 1: and it's it's paying dividends for sure.
- 25:55Speaker 2: So even though it Smith's playing good football right now
- 25:58Speaker 2: like he was potentially one of the better, but I
- 26:01Speaker 2: think his size compared to the rest of the NFL
- 26:04Speaker 2: kind of kind of derode him a little bit his
- 26:06Speaker 2: rookie season. But so far this season he's he's figuring
- 26:09Speaker 2: it out with what he can do, you know. So, yeah,
- 26:12Speaker 2: they're they're a good So it's weird to say they're
- 26:16Speaker 2: a good young defense, like they're a good they're good
- 26:18Speaker 2: for Yeah, they're a good young defense because they kept
- 26:22Speaker 2: around the same core forever. But right now they're turning
- 26:25Speaker 2: a whole new clock, and these guys that they have
- 26:28Speaker 2: right now, you know, the next four years, the next
- 26:30Speaker 2: three years at least, with this defense is gonna be
- 26:33Speaker 2: pretty good. Pretty it's gonna be pretty cool to watch.
- 26:35Speaker 1: I think, Yeah, no, for sure. And then Nolan Smith
- 26:39Speaker 1: stepping up with Brandon Grant being out for the year,
- 26:41Speaker 1: that Tricep injury that he has, and also Jalen Carter.
- 26:44Speaker 1: I know he doesn't have the best box score, but
- 26:47Speaker 1: he's getting up there as far as Chris Jones territory,
- 26:51Speaker 1: as far as wrecking an entire game on a day
- 26:54Speaker 1: to day basis, he's getting up there slowly.
- 26:56Speaker 2: Definitely, he definitely has the potential to be there, and
- 26:59Speaker 2: for sure.
- 27:00Speaker 1: You know why I'm saying the Eagles they're officially contenders
- 27:03Speaker 1: because their biggest weakness can also be their biggest strength,
- 27:06Speaker 1: and that's Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts on any given Sunday,
- 27:10Speaker 1: he could be a top five quarterback in the league,
- 27:13Speaker 1: but also he could be a bottom five quarterback in
- 27:16Speaker 1: the league at the same time. So you taking the
- 27:19Speaker 1: ball out of Jalen Hurts his hands, stopping that inconsistency
- 27:22Speaker 1: from happening, giving it to running back in Saquon, It's
- 27:26Speaker 1: gonna win you a bunch of football games. Yeah, by far?
- 27:31Speaker 1: Right now, MVP, because yes, there's Josh Allen, there's Josh
- 27:36Speaker 1: Allen there. But I think that if he I'll say this,
- 27:39Speaker 1: if he doesn't break the record, it's gonna go to
- 27:42Speaker 1: a quarterback, But if he does break the record, it's
- 27:45Speaker 1: gonna go to Saquon. By far?
- 27:47Speaker 2: Is that total derail? I'm gonn look at the MVP
- 27:49Speaker 2: odds right now?
- 27:50Speaker 3: Okay, Victor just.
- 27:52Speaker 1: Kidding Victor woman Yama stats No. And then even DeVonta Smith,
- 27:58Speaker 1: he didn't even play in this game, so the Eagles
- 28:00Speaker 1: are not even at full strength.
- 28:01Speaker 2: Vegas Insider all right now, say Josh Allenquon Barkley, Lamar,
- 28:10Speaker 2: Jared go Patrick Mahomes, that's the top five.
- 28:14Speaker 1: See I get Lamar, he's up there, but I just
- 28:18Speaker 1: think I'm put five losses now. The five losses now
- 28:21Speaker 1: is beating Mahomes. Mahomes, that's starting to get up there.
- 28:27Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, so yep, No, but all right, but let's
- 28:32Speaker 2: go to Josh. It's Josh Allen Saquon Barkley's race right now.
- 28:36Speaker 2: I don't disagree with that at all. Like I'm not
- 28:38Speaker 2: going to make a case for Mahomes or No. One
- 28:40Speaker 2: that that's the race and Josh Allen right.
- 28:43Speaker 1: Now, Okay, I'll say this because I know the Bills.
- 28:46Speaker 1: They don't play the Lions this week, but they play
- 28:49Speaker 1: them the following week. If Josh Allen goes into Detroit
- 28:52Speaker 1: and beats the Lions, I don't care how pretty it looks,
- 28:55Speaker 1: if it's ugly, Josh Allen's winning the MVP after that
- 28:58Speaker 1: one because it's the two best teams in the conference.
- 29:02Speaker 2: What if like has another two hundred yard game and
- 29:04Speaker 2: consistently runs one thirty yards, you know, it's like it's
- 29:07Speaker 2: the It's kind.
- 29:09Speaker 1: Of because like also the stats do matter, but also
- 29:13Speaker 1: the games, the last the last few games building up
- 29:16Speaker 1: to it also do matter. Because I think the one
- 29:20Speaker 1: that sealed it for Lamar last year was a Christmas
- 29:22Speaker 1: game San fran versus Baltimore, and then Lamar had that
- 29:26Speaker 1: vintage MVP game. Yep, I think that pretty much sealed it.
- 29:29Speaker 1: So I feel like narrative also matters too. But well,
- 29:32Speaker 1: let's go to move on to this next game. I
- 29:34Speaker 1: know we're going to talk about some of those other
- 29:36Speaker 1: teams soon. So the LA Rams versus the New Orleans Saints,
- 29:39Speaker 1: in which the Rams they struggled in this first half
- 29:41Speaker 1: for sure right here, but then twenty one points in
- 29:44Speaker 1: the second half and won twenty one to fourteen keep
- 29:47Speaker 1: their playoff hopes alive. Now they're officially five hundred. Any
- 29:50Speaker 1: takeaways from this one, Josh, But.
- 29:52Speaker 2: I'm looking at the standings that at the NFCU West
- 29:55Speaker 2: right now.
- 29:56Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's the yah, yeah, the NFC.
- 29:59Speaker 2: West, Yeah, Seattle seven, dude, those teams are all still
- 30:03Speaker 2: right there like it's not it's crazy, and we got
- 30:07Speaker 2: five games left of the season, so yeah, it's gonna
- 30:10Speaker 2: it's gonna be a race. But right now, I just
- 30:14Speaker 2: I think, uh, Cooper Cup needs to I don't know what,
- 30:18Speaker 2: just that this game just was weird for him. I
- 30:20Speaker 2: think I think the the Saints really balled out defensively.
- 30:23Speaker 2: They had a good game plan coming into this one.
- 30:26Speaker 2: They shut down Pooka nakua if If five for fifty
- 30:29Speaker 2: six in the touchdown. Shutting down Pooka Nakula three for
- 30:32Speaker 2: seventeen is definitely shutting down Cooper Cup. So it's like
- 30:36Speaker 2: they had a good game plan comings this one. They
- 30:38Speaker 2: didn't let the rams strengths overwhelm them. That obviously, Karen,
- 30:42Speaker 2: it became the Karen Williams Show, and I think that's
- 30:45Speaker 2: the I think that's a good thing that the Rams
- 30:46Speaker 2: can do. They can switch the alternative to a different
- 30:49Speaker 2: play style and rely on upon someone. And even Blake
- 30:52Speaker 2: Krum had a good day in this one eight for
- 30:54Speaker 2: forty two. That's a good solid person coming in and
- 30:57Speaker 2: doing doing consistent running. You know, like they were able
- 31:01Speaker 2: to control the ground game in this one, and that's
- 31:02Speaker 2: why the Rams ended up winning. As far as the Saints,
- 31:05Speaker 2: I'm not gonna get too much into it. Yeah, you know,
- 31:09Speaker 2: it's just the fall for I don't don't know what
- 31:12Speaker 2: to say about them. You know, it's like they're playing
- 31:14Speaker 2: hard football right now. They're playing really they're playing teams
- 31:17Speaker 2: tough right now. But it's a little too late for
- 31:19Speaker 2: all that to be trying to do that. You're four
- 31:21Speaker 2: and eight, you know. I just think that there's a
- 31:23Speaker 2: lot of things they have to figure out, especially with
- 31:24Speaker 2: the team that they have built. I think it's it's
- 31:27Speaker 2: an old team. It's an old team. There's some young
- 31:29Speaker 2: pieces there. Don't get me wrong. Breckon's going to come
- 31:31Speaker 2: out and talk about all these Brian Bercis and Chris
- 31:35Speaker 2: Olaves and I mean, who knows if he even plays again,
- 31:38Speaker 2: We don't know yet, you know. So it's like, but
- 31:40Speaker 2: everyone else as the klud Alante everyone, I think that
- 31:44Speaker 2: there has to be a move and they have a
- 31:46Speaker 2: high sound. Their salary cap is doomed, so it's like
- 31:49Speaker 2: in the league. Yeah, they have to figure out certain
- 31:52Speaker 2: things because this team right now, I think a lot.
- 31:54Speaker 2: I'm not in the same standard as the San Francisco
- 31:56Speaker 2: forty nine ers, because the San Fransco forty nine ers
- 31:58Speaker 2: can turn it on like that I think eventually become
- 32:00Speaker 2: a I just think they're drained right now. But I
- 32:03Speaker 2: think it's the same flip side with the Saints on
- 32:05Speaker 2: the on with their side, because there's no direction. I
- 32:09Speaker 2: think I think they're they're stuck in the middle of
- 32:12Speaker 2: two different two different paths that should be taken, and
- 32:14Speaker 2: they're just stuck right there trying to figure out which
- 32:16Speaker 2: way they're gonna go. And I think until they figure
- 32:18Speaker 2: that out, I think they're gonna be stuck in the
- 32:20Speaker 2: same situation for the next couple of seasons. And that's
- 32:22Speaker 2: But the Rams, they're they're still fighting. They're still fighting
- 32:26Speaker 2: right now, so we'll just see where they go.
- 32:28Speaker 1: Yeah, the Saints are definition of a of a bad
- 32:31Speaker 1: good team, but a good bad team. That's exactly where
- 32:33Speaker 1: they are. But again, you already you pretty much touch
- 32:36Speaker 1: on every point as far as with the Saints here,
- 32:38Speaker 1: But with the Rams, I think this is good for
- 32:40Speaker 1: them down the stretch if they're gonna make a playoff runt,
- 32:43Speaker 1: because it shows that your defense can kind of be
- 32:45Speaker 1: relied upon because this is a very young defense. You
- 32:49Speaker 1: talk about a team that's been revamping their defense, especially
- 32:52Speaker 1: after Aaron Donald is gone. But yeah, Jared Vers and
- 32:56Speaker 1: you have Brandon Fist Florida State legends, by the way,
- 32:58Speaker 1: but they're just wrecking. As far as on this defensive line,
- 33:01Speaker 1: they're not the Aaron Donald production, but it's a little
- 33:04Speaker 1: bit of a tier below because you're not going to
- 33:06Speaker 1: replace Aaron Donald here. But what they've been able to do.
- 33:10Speaker 1: And as far as this defense is letting your offense
- 33:13Speaker 1: work out all the kinks and so whenever it gets
- 33:16Speaker 1: late in the season, the playoff time, your offense will
- 33:19Speaker 1: be functioning. Because in this first half they had no
- 33:22Speaker 1: points in the first half. So it just shows that
- 33:26Speaker 1: as far as with the Rams, whenever they have a
- 33:28Speaker 1: gut to have it situation, you have a Super Bowl
- 33:31Speaker 1: quarterback in Matt Stafford, you have Puga DeMarcus Robinson. He
- 33:35Speaker 1: made a big play, so and I think it's gonna
- 33:37Speaker 1: be big coming down the stretch Blake Korum as far
- 33:40Speaker 1: as what he was able to do in those carries
- 33:43Speaker 1: it What it also does is keep Karen Williams fresh
- 33:46Speaker 1: down the stretch too, because down the stretch last year,
- 33:49Speaker 1: Karen Williams what was again, damn near twenty five thirty
- 33:52Speaker 1: touches a game. It will something, it was something crazy
- 33:55Speaker 1: like that. So Karen Williams is a little bit more fresher,
- 33:59Speaker 1: explosive throughout the season. So that's gonna be a good thing.
- 34:03Speaker 1: But let's going to move on to this next team
- 34:05Speaker 1: right here, which it was the big show. They're at
- 34:08Speaker 1: five hundred now six and six versus the Panthers, which
- 34:11Speaker 1: it went to overtime twenty six to twenty three here,
- 34:14Speaker 1: So any takeaways from this one here, Josh.
- 34:20Speaker 2: The Buccaneers they need to win also, and I think
- 34:23Speaker 2: I don't know the Panthers. They're starting. Bryce Song is
- 34:25Speaker 2: starting to look like a good quarterback. I think he's
- 34:28Speaker 2: starting to play good football. In the last couple of
- 34:30Speaker 2: the last three weeks, last three weeks since he's come back,
- 34:32Speaker 2: he's played, He's played very well. He's putting his team
- 34:35Speaker 2: in good situations. There's still some things he needs to
- 34:37Speaker 2: learn till things he still needs to figure out. But
- 34:39Speaker 2: as of right now, I think you can be satisfied
- 34:41Speaker 2: with what he's putting out on the field, whether you're
- 34:43Speaker 2: a fan or or not. You know, and I think
- 34:45Speaker 2: that that's good. I think that that sit out needed
- 34:47Speaker 2: to needed him to regroup. Let's go back to the
- 34:49Speaker 2: drawing board, Let's watch some film, because he's he's playing
- 34:52Speaker 2: good football. I just want to get credit where credit
- 34:54Speaker 2: is due. Adam thin Lind does not suck. So let
- 34:57Speaker 2: me tell you all that Adam Thinland does not suck.
- 35:00Speaker 2: And he has eight catches for nine nine yards in
- 35:03Speaker 2: a touchdown. He's continuing to do good things. He was.
- 35:07Speaker 2: He's been banged up all season, and last year we
- 35:10Speaker 2: saw what he could do still at an older age,
- 35:12Speaker 2: and right now he's still producing. And we saw that
- 35:14Speaker 2: in this game. And I think that's what gave the
- 35:16Speaker 2: Buccaneers some fits, is that you came in with a
- 35:18Speaker 2: game plan, but the game plan just didn't work out defensively.
- 35:21Speaker 2: Offensively though, I mean, this is what we expect them
- 35:23Speaker 2: to be. We expect them to be this team that
- 35:26Speaker 2: could score, that can keep up with any team when
- 35:29Speaker 2: they are at full health. And I think Mike Evans
- 35:30Speaker 2: brought that in this one. First game back, eight receptions,
- 35:33Speaker 2: one hundred or second game back he played last week, right, yeah,
- 35:36Speaker 2: second game but we didn't talk. Yeah, we didn't talk
- 35:39Speaker 2: about anything last week, so I'm trying to remember. But
- 35:42Speaker 2: Mike Evans eight recessions, one eighteen a touchdown. He's just
- 35:44Speaker 2: doing Mike Evans things, being the number one receiver for
- 35:47Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield. They're gonna keep feeding him the ball until
- 35:50Speaker 2: until the wills fall off. And I think that's what
- 35:52Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield. He's reliant upon on Bucky Irving. Bucky Irving.
- 35:56Speaker 2: Let's talk about Bucky Irving. Twenty five twenty five carries,
- 36:00Speaker 2: fifty two a touchdown or three receptions thirty three yards.
- 36:03Speaker 2: He's the number one back White's taking.
- 36:08Speaker 3: Huh, you want me.
- 36:09Speaker 1: Be a fantasy football league. I don't know if you know.
- 36:11Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw that I start Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 36:15Speaker 2: I mean I have him. I have him in two
- 36:16Speaker 2: other leagues I didn't start. I started in one league
- 36:18Speaker 2: and the other one I didn't start him, so I
- 36:20Speaker 2: started Johnson Taylor and Chase Brown. So I mean it's
- 36:23Speaker 2: not that yeah, yeah.
- 36:25Speaker 3: That's so.
- 36:26Speaker 2: Yeah, But no Bucky Irving. They found a good one
- 36:31Speaker 2: in the first round. It gets confusing watching sometimes because
- 36:34Speaker 2: he's wearing number seven. So I'm just taking a look
- 36:36Speaker 2: at Leonard Fournette, but it's not. It's Bucky Irving and
- 36:38Speaker 2: then Rashard White. I think Rashard White, this is his role.
- 36:41Speaker 2: I don't think where he doesn't have to do too much.
- 36:43Speaker 2: I think where he can come in as the second back.
- 36:45Speaker 2: And produce. I think he's a good running back, but
- 36:48Speaker 2: he's just not a great running back, and I think
- 36:49Speaker 2: having someone above him is really gonna let him shine
- 36:52Speaker 2: a lot more. Eleven carries seventy six yards. He brings
- 36:54Speaker 2: that good one to two punch. I think that's the
- 36:56Speaker 2: trend that teams are going towards right now, is a
- 36:58Speaker 2: one two punch in the backfield. Right now, the Buccaneers
- 37:01Speaker 2: have found one, and I think it's good for this
- 37:02Speaker 2: team moving forward, especially with the way the playoffs are
- 37:05Speaker 2: about to pan out there they're fighting right now, so
- 37:08Speaker 2: and then especially since the Falcons have dropped these last
- 37:12Speaker 2: three games. Right now, the Buccaneers I think are going
- 37:15Speaker 2: to skyrocket to this number one squat.
- 37:17Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 37:18Speaker 1: I thought it was gonna be harder for the Bucks
- 37:19Speaker 1: to climb up in the division, but now it's looking
- 37:22Speaker 1: easier and easier. Even though they lost both games to
- 37:24Speaker 1: the Falcons, they're only one full game back, well two
- 37:28Speaker 1: for them to get clear possession of it. But like
- 37:32Speaker 1: you were saying, thirty nine carries Toner thirty six yards
- 37:35Speaker 1: for the Buccaneers offense, and this isn't their strength right here.
- 37:38Speaker 1: If they're able to do something like this, it's gonna
- 37:41Speaker 1: be really scary because we know Baker he could throw
- 37:43Speaker 1: the football, and he didn't even have his best game here.
- 37:47Speaker 1: His interceptions were very questionable. So so Baker Mayfield, I
- 37:52Speaker 1: damn you are guaranteed he's gonna have it cleaned up.
- 37:54Speaker 1: But yeah, Bucky Irvin almost two hundred total scrimmage yards here,
- 38:00Speaker 1: almost on thirty carries. So this dude, he's just, he's
- 38:04Speaker 1: just I don't know how he felt. I think it
- 38:06Speaker 1: was a fourth or fifth doun something like that. He
- 38:08Speaker 1: was always an explosive player. It's just his size that
- 38:11Speaker 1: was the biggest thing. Obviously, size doesn't matter. Put up
- 38:15Speaker 1: all right, let me just move on to the facts.
- 38:18Speaker 1: Put up Bryce Young. I was quick to call Bryce
- 38:22Speaker 1: Young the bus, and I'll admit it, he has been
- 38:25Speaker 1: playing good football. I still want to see this happen.
- 38:29Speaker 1: One thing that I would like to say is that
- 38:30Speaker 1: Jonathan Brooks deserves a lot more burned than Chewba Hubbard.
- 38:34Speaker 1: I know he's coming back, but I think it should
- 38:37Speaker 1: damn near be a forty sixty split. As far as Chwobo,
- 38:41Speaker 1: he still gets a sixty, but by the end of
- 38:43Speaker 1: the year, it should be a fifty to fifty. I
- 38:46Speaker 1: think everybody, like you were saying, everybody's trying to go
- 38:48Speaker 1: to that two running back situation. I think, especially these
- 38:52Speaker 1: two teams, they're trying to copy that David Montgomery Jamier
- 38:55Speaker 1: Gibbs type of formula. Here there's always that power back
- 39:00Speaker 1: and then there's that explosive back. They're trying to copy that,
- 39:03Speaker 1: and I think these two teams are perfect examples of it.
- 39:07Speaker 1: And Bryce Young I think this is what I want
- 39:11Speaker 1: to say, because I want to talk about this with
- 39:12Speaker 1: the Colts too in a second. If you let your
- 39:15Speaker 1: quarterbacks actually develop, you let them sit for a little
- 39:17Speaker 1: bit and regroup, watch film, they end up being good quarterbacks.
- 39:21Speaker 1: Because teams are too patient or too impatient on quarterbacks nowadays,
- 39:27Speaker 1: because I don't know, Yeah, yeah, pretty much. But let's
- 39:32Speaker 1: go to move on to this next game here, Tennessee
- 39:35Speaker 1: Titans at the Washington Commanders. Washington wins forty two to
- 39:39Speaker 1: nineteen after losing two in a row. Yeah, two in
- 39:41Speaker 1: a row. So any takeaways from this.
- 39:44Speaker 2: One real quick? I think over the last and even
- 39:52Speaker 2: though they've like the last three weeks, yeah, Mayoman's turned
- 39:57Speaker 2: on a little bit. I will say, like he has
- 39:59Speaker 2: played some pretty good football. They've all they haven't turned
- 40:02Speaker 2: into anything like positive for the Titans, but yeah, they are,
- 40:08Speaker 2: they are winning, they are, they are. He is playing
- 40:10Speaker 2: some good football, and I think just got to give
- 40:11Speaker 2: some credit right there. I think he's starting to figure
- 40:13Speaker 2: out a little bit. Also. I mean he's still makes
- 40:15Speaker 2: some bonehead decisions, makes some crazy throws. But I think
- 40:17Speaker 2: that's what you're gonna get with with what how he
- 40:19Speaker 2: does play, is he's gonna try and making a big play,
- 40:21Speaker 2: make some mistakes, but he is playing good football right now.
- 40:24Speaker 2: I just want to give credit. But we already knew
- 40:27Speaker 2: this was gonna happen. Brian Robinson twelve plus carries, sixteen carries,
- 40:31Speaker 2: one oh three, one touchdown. Coming back getting a little
- 40:34Speaker 2: bit more healthier, you know. I think he's still playing
- 40:36Speaker 2: through injury right now. With that, with that ankle, it
- 40:38Speaker 2: definitely looks like it's bothering him. I will say, like,
- 40:41Speaker 2: he's not he's, he's he's what's the word. I'm favoring
- 40:45Speaker 2: favoring him for sure right now. So I just think
- 40:49Speaker 2: that's something to monitor. I think the Commanders they needed
- 40:52Speaker 2: this win bad. They needed this win really bad because
- 40:55Speaker 2: if they lose this when they dropped to seven to six.
- 40:57Speaker 2: Teams are coming back. Falcons are still in the mix,
- 40:59Speaker 2: Buccaneers still in the mix, Cardinals Rams, you know who's
- 41:03Speaker 2: the other team freaking even though the Niners are still
- 41:05Speaker 2: in the mix. So you lose this game, it's gonna
- 41:07Speaker 2: make it a lot, a lot more tougher. Going down
- 41:10Speaker 2: the stretch and improving to eight and five definitely puts
- 41:12Speaker 2: them a little bit at more ahead. So they needed
- 41:14Speaker 2: this win. And I think having Brian Robinson back and
- 41:17Speaker 2: emergence of Chris Rodriguez in this game. I know he's
- 41:19Speaker 2: always he's been around for a little bit, but having
- 41:22Speaker 2: him also having a big game in this one. I
- 41:24Speaker 2: think the Austin Eckler injury's probably gonna look like a
- 41:28Speaker 2: you don't want to see no one get injured, but
- 41:29Speaker 2: it's probably gonna look like a blessing in this guy
- 41:30Speaker 2: is having a more of explosive player behind Brian Robinson's
- 41:33Speaker 2: gonna add another element to his run game. And and
- 41:36Speaker 2: the scary terry you know, zach Ertzt continuing to be
- 41:39Speaker 2: productive for Jaden Daniels, and I think the Commanders they
- 41:42Speaker 2: that this is a good game to get back on
- 41:44Speaker 2: track for them.
- 41:45Speaker 1: Yeah, no, for sure. I don't have much else to say.
- 41:47Speaker 1: You pretty much hit every every point here, But I'm
- 41:49Speaker 1: gonna go to move to this next game here, Arizona
- 41:51Speaker 1: Cardinals at the Minnesota Vikings right here, and with the
- 41:54Speaker 1: Vikings score a late touchdown to win this game twenty
- 41:57Speaker 1: three to twenty two. Vikings are now ten and two,
- 42:00Speaker 1: only one game behind the Lions. Would they control their
- 42:02Speaker 1: own destiny. They play the Lions. I don't know when,
- 42:05Speaker 1: but they play them soon. Cardinals are now five hundred
- 42:08Speaker 1: their second Yeah, they're second in the NFC West right
- 42:11Speaker 1: now because they have the tiebreaker over the Rams. No no, no, no, no,
- 42:15Speaker 1: they actually don't. They're actually tied with the Rams right now.
- 42:17Speaker 1: So Rams and Cardinals they are tied. Any takeaways from.
- 42:21Speaker 2: This one, I think I think we can see what
- 42:25Speaker 2: the Cardinals can be and we can see what the
- 42:27Speaker 2: Vikings can be. Also, you know, I think I think
- 42:30Speaker 2: both teams are very good offensively. They're both gonna get
- 42:32Speaker 2: the job done. Justin Jefferson seven ninety nine. Sam Darnold,
- 42:36Speaker 2: he's starting to look better the last two weeks after
- 42:38Speaker 2: after having a rough couple of weeks before that. You know,
- 42:40Speaker 2: kind of costing his team and not costing his team's losses,
- 42:44Speaker 2: but definitely putting them in bad situations. Yeah, but I
- 42:47Speaker 2: just think the run game has to get going for
- 42:49Speaker 2: the Vikings. I think I think this is where the
- 42:51Speaker 2: age of Aaron Jones starting to show. I don't know
- 42:53Speaker 2: if they're holding them back because oh, like he is older.
- 42:56Speaker 2: Let's wait till the playoffs. He is dealing with certain
- 42:58Speaker 2: things because in the playoffs he's gonna turn I almost
- 43:00Speaker 2: guarantee he is gonna play big, great football in the
- 43:04Speaker 2: in the playoffs. But I still think they're trying to
- 43:06Speaker 2: figure out how to get t J. Hawkinson involved again,
- 43:09Speaker 2: you know. I mean, the injury was was rough. He
- 43:12Speaker 2: I think he's probably figuring out himself as well. But
- 43:15Speaker 2: as far as I think they that run game has
- 43:17Speaker 2: to get going for the Vikings, I don't think they're
- 43:19Speaker 2: a contender. They're not gonna be within these top teams
- 43:22Speaker 2: if the running game isn't going because what the other
- 43:23Speaker 2: two teams can do that they're probably gonna compete. Three
- 43:26Speaker 2: teams Packers, Packers, Packers, Lions, Segals all have run game.
- 43:33Speaker 2: They all can run the ball no matter what Josh Jacobs.
- 43:36Speaker 2: Sure it's in volume, but he's running the ball. He's
- 43:39Speaker 2: he's getting to where where he needs to get to,
- 43:40Speaker 2: and that's the end zone he's getting. He's getting the
- 43:42Speaker 2: first downs, he's getting the five yards. We already we
- 43:45Speaker 2: don't need to talk about the Lions run game and Saquon,
- 43:48Speaker 2: so they for them to keep up with these teams,
- 43:50Speaker 2: they got to figure it out on that on that
- 43:52Speaker 2: side of the ball. And I think it has to
- 43:54Speaker 2: happen because before the playoffs starts, because if they don't
- 43:56Speaker 2: have a figured out, then I think there's gonna be
- 43:58Speaker 2: some problems for the Vikings to come playoff time. As
- 44:00Speaker 2: far as his Cardinals side, James Connor gets an extension
- 44:03Speaker 2: after this game. Kyler Murray, he played good, but he
- 44:08Speaker 2: could play a lot better, I think, I think, especially
- 44:10Speaker 2: the weapons he has around him. Trey McBride had a
- 44:12Speaker 2: big one. Marvin Harrison. I mean, he's still trying to
- 44:15Speaker 2: figure it out. I think. I just don't.
- 44:17Speaker 3: I just don't.
- 44:17Speaker 2: I don't think there's a connection yet. I don't think
- 44:19Speaker 2: there's a connection between him and Kyler Murray. It's gonna
- 44:21Speaker 2: take some time. I just think what the way he
- 44:24Speaker 2: plays as compared to the Neighbors, Marvin Harrison's more of
- 44:27Speaker 2: the I want to say, you just kind of have
- 44:31Speaker 2: to throw it up and let him make something happen.
- 44:32Speaker 2: As far as movie and Neighbors finds a way to
- 44:34Speaker 2: get open. When Haber's always he knows how to find
- 44:37Speaker 2: the zone, He's a lot faster. I think Marvin Harrison
- 44:40Speaker 2: is gonna have to be a comfortability process with him
- 44:43Speaker 2: and Kyler Murray rather than it's kind of had to
- 44:45Speaker 2: be like more like a DeAndre Hopkins situation where you
- 44:47Speaker 2: have to just trust him, you know, like that we're
- 44:49Speaker 2: in that situation. Michael Wilson has a good win. I
- 44:53Speaker 2: just think this was a good game for both teams
- 44:55Speaker 2: to show where they are at. But the Cardinals do
- 44:58Speaker 2: have to start winning some football games kind of because
- 45:01Speaker 2: it's them when the it's them them and the them
- 45:04Speaker 2: in the rams right now, and whoever creates that separation,
- 45:06Speaker 2: it's it's really close right now.
- 45:09Speaker 1: Yeah, No, it is really really close. And one thing,
- 45:12Speaker 1: so yeah, Sam Darnold, he definitely is playing better football.
- 45:15Speaker 1: I'm not gonna touch that point again. But one thing
- 45:17Speaker 1: I just want to take away from right here is
- 45:19Speaker 1: as far as personally me, this is where analytics it's
- 45:23Speaker 1: kind of it's kind of shaky because the Cardinals, they
- 45:26Speaker 1: were up three with three minutes ago. You were at
- 45:28Speaker 1: the four yard line and it was fourth down. So
- 45:32Speaker 1: if you miss that, if you miss the touchdown, you're
- 45:36Speaker 1: up three. That means the Vikings are more comfortable with
- 45:39Speaker 1: taking a field goal, so you can tie it up,
- 45:41Speaker 1: you go into overtime, maybe a last second drive, but
- 45:44Speaker 1: if you score the touchdown, then you're gonna be up
- 45:47Speaker 1: ten points and that game is pretty much wrapped with
- 45:50Speaker 1: three minutes left to go unless something crazy happens. So
- 45:54Speaker 1: I just want to say that as far as analytics,
- 45:56Speaker 1: that's where it's kind of a little bit confusing as
- 45:59Speaker 1: far as making the right thing because I think the
- 46:01Speaker 1: analytics said take the field goal here, so you basically
- 46:06Speaker 1: cost your shelf to cost yourself the game pretty much here.
- 46:09Speaker 1: So but as far as with the Cardinals here, they
- 46:13Speaker 1: are trying to be a running football team. Thirty one
- 46:15Speaker 1: carries one hundred fifty yards. They're trying to be but
- 46:18Speaker 1: I think it's still best whenever you have Kyler Murray
- 46:21Speaker 1: throw the ball. He threw the ball forty five times,
- 46:23Speaker 1: so it definitely was a lot, but I think it's
- 46:26Speaker 1: just better if you put the ball on Kyler Murray's
- 46:28Speaker 1: hands and just trust his weapons. And I agree as
- 46:31Speaker 1: far as with Marv right here, it's just little stuff.
- 46:34Speaker 1: As far as when Cott is expecting him to turn
- 46:36Speaker 1: in or turn out Marph, he does the other thing.
- 46:38Speaker 1: They'll get that fixed, I think by next year for sure.
- 46:42Speaker 1: And also a stat here from Trey McBride. Trey McBride,
- 46:45Speaker 1: he has seventy three catches and no touchdowns and he
- 46:49Speaker 1: might be the first NFL player in history to have
- 46:52Speaker 1: one hundred catches and no touchdowns in a season. At
- 46:56Speaker 1: this pace, No, he end up playing like a touchdown
- 47:01Speaker 1: or two.
- 47:01Speaker 2: Yeah, no, there was a season he didn't score a
- 47:04Speaker 2: single touchdown. But I don't think he got two hundred catches.
- 47:06Speaker 2: He might have got like underneath one hundred catches.
- 47:08Speaker 1: I think he was close, and I think he was Yeah, No,
- 47:11Speaker 1: I think he was close. But yeah, as far as
- 47:14Speaker 1: the vikings here, again, I know Sam Donald is playing
- 47:17Speaker 1: good football. I just don't know how much to believe because, yeah,
- 47:22Speaker 1: compared to everybody else, Compared to everybody else, Jared Golf's
- 47:26Speaker 1: a better quarterback. Jaylor Hurts. He is a better quarterback.
- 47:28Speaker 1: Jordan Loves a better quarterback. You could even say Baker's
- 47:31Speaker 1: a better quarterback. I wouldn't say Kirk Cousins right now.
- 47:35Speaker 1: I wouldn't say Kirk Cousins.
- 47:36Speaker 2: Right now, right now. Yeah, Stafford's a better quarterback.
- 47:39Speaker 1: Yeah, Matt Stafford, he's a better quarterback. Cooper. No, I'm
- 47:42Speaker 1: just kidding. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna go that
- 47:44Speaker 1: far right there now. But let's go to move to
- 47:46Speaker 1: this next game right here, the Houston Texans versus the
- 47:49Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars, and what's the Houston Texans barely won twenty
- 47:53Speaker 1: three to twenty right here, So any takeaways from this one, I.
- 47:59Speaker 2: Just, first of all, prayers are for Trevor Lawrence. Dude,
- 48:03Speaker 2: got rock, you know, just kinda keep moving after that.
- 48:06Speaker 2: I don't know, he got absolutely destroyed by a shy here.
- 48:10Speaker 3: I don't know. That was crazy.
- 48:12Speaker 2: But as far as the Texans, there's I kind of
- 48:18Speaker 2: feel the same way about the Vikings as I do
- 48:20Speaker 2: for the Texans right now. It's they're not they don't
- 48:23Speaker 2: scare you. There's just something about this team where there's
- 48:28Speaker 2: two sophomore slump. I think it's starting to show a
- 48:30Speaker 2: little bit, you know, their teams are starting to figure
- 48:33Speaker 2: out a little bit more how to play them. And
- 48:34Speaker 2: I understand this is a divisional game. We always talk
- 48:36Speaker 2: about how divisional games are always tough, but this is
- 48:39Speaker 2: a team you should be destroying. This is a Jaguars team.
- 48:41Speaker 2: Even when Mac Jones comes onto the field, you should
- 48:44Speaker 2: be able to kind of put them away and move
- 48:47Speaker 2: on to the next week and look onto your next team.
- 48:49Speaker 2: But in this one, it just never happened for them.
- 48:51Speaker 2: I think they they and it's weird because individuals had
- 48:54Speaker 2: big games like Nico Joe Mixon, but if you look
- 48:58Speaker 2: at the entirety of the team, it was rough. It
- 49:01Speaker 2: was rough, ye. And you can't be doing this against
- 49:03Speaker 2: a team like the Jacksonville Jaguars.
- 49:06Speaker 1: Yeah, no, for sure. That's that's what I put down
- 49:08Speaker 1: right here. CJ has a sophomore slump, and it's just
- 49:12Speaker 1: some throws that he wasn't missing last year that he's
- 49:14Speaker 1: missing this year. And he has more weapons this year
- 49:18Speaker 1: than he did last year by far. And then the
- 49:21Speaker 1: defense is quote unquote better, but it looks like they
- 49:26Speaker 1: kind of went a step down. But I think this
- 49:28Speaker 1: is just part of the process as far as CJ. Stroud,
- 49:30Speaker 1: because teams are gonna figure out. It's very rare they
- 49:34Speaker 1: have a home situation where they're gonna be even more
- 49:38Speaker 1: dominant as the years go on. Usually they start to
- 49:40Speaker 1: figure it out or have some tape on you. So
- 49:44Speaker 1: I think this is part of it. I'm not gonna
- 49:45Speaker 1: say he's definitely not in that top five quarterback. He's
- 49:49Speaker 1: still like on the fringe, like top ten, like the
- 49:52Speaker 1: late top ten or maybe top twelve around that area.
- 49:56Speaker 1: But yeah, no, they cannot be taken serious until other
- 50:00Speaker 1: I know they play the Ravens down the stretch, so
- 50:03Speaker 1: we'll see if they could end up living up, living
- 50:06Speaker 1: up to or maybe fixing some things down the road.
- 50:10Speaker 1: But yeah, until further notice, I can't trust him at all.
- 50:13Speaker 1: But as far as this next game right here, the
- 50:15Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks versus the New York Jets Seahawks, they win
- 50:18Speaker 1: twenty six to twenty one here and with Seattle they're
- 50:22Speaker 1: now on a three game win streak and now the
- 50:24Speaker 1: leaders in the NFC West. So anything to take away here, No.
- 50:29Speaker 2: I just think the emergence of Jackson Jackson Smith and
- 50:32Speaker 2: Jayba is making is it helping this team out a lot.
- 50:35Speaker 2: I think you drafted them to be a number one receiver.
- 50:37Speaker 2: I think people are gonna be mad at that, but
- 50:39Speaker 2: there's a reason he was drafted in the top twenty
- 50:41Speaker 2: in the first round, you know, to be to be
- 50:43Speaker 2: this guy for this team. And I think him starting
- 50:45Speaker 2: to get a little bit more involved. I don'd to
- 50:46Speaker 2: say the targets aren't matching DK Metcalf, but the way
- 50:50Speaker 2: that they're using Jacksonmith and Jigua to his JSN, to
- 50:52Speaker 2: his strengths, it's really it's really helping them out. And
- 50:56Speaker 2: they are they are trying to run the ball. They
- 50:57Speaker 2: are trying to get the ball Togainnith Walker sixteen carries
- 51:00Speaker 2: or nine yards, but you got to get Zach Scharbonay
- 51:03Speaker 2: involved also. I think I think there has to be
- 51:05Speaker 2: that point. I understand KEA Walker is the better running back,
- 51:08Speaker 2: Keith Walker is your number one running back, but take
- 51:10Speaker 2: some pressure off and give it to Zach Scharbonny because
- 51:12Speaker 2: every time he touched the ball in this one he
- 51:14Speaker 2: averaged he averaged seven yards per carry and it's only
- 51:16Speaker 2: four times. And I just think you need that one
- 51:18Speaker 2: two punch to get to help this team out especially
- 51:20Speaker 2: do you know Smith out a lot more. I think
- 51:22Speaker 2: this offense will go to a whole other level. But
- 51:24Speaker 2: until that happens, you know where they're just stuck here.
- 51:27Speaker 2: And we talked about we talked about how good this
- 51:30Speaker 2: defense has played. With Byron Murphy. You know, he's also
- 51:34Speaker 2: in that same conversation. I think of where the potential.
- 51:37Speaker 2: I don't know if he's he's not as good as
- 51:38Speaker 2: Dalen Carter, I will say that, but he can be
- 51:41Speaker 2: right below. Yeah, yeah, he's like a tier below. It
- 51:43Speaker 2: could be like Aaron Donald Chris Jones situation. I think
- 51:46Speaker 2: I think that's where it could be where And obviously
- 51:49Speaker 2: those guys are Hall of famers. Those guys have already
- 51:51Speaker 2: proven themselves. But yeah, but just the comparison and what
- 51:56Speaker 2: where the tiers are gonna be. I think it's gonna
- 51:58Speaker 2: be Daalen Carter and Byron Murphy and for for a
- 52:00Speaker 2: couple of years to come. And I think I think
- 52:02Speaker 2: that's good for this defense right now. But as far
- 52:05Speaker 2: as the Jets, just same thing every week. Disappointmenteah, you
- 52:08Speaker 2: know it's yeah, yeah, I don't I don't want to
- 52:11Speaker 2: go too much into it. Just just disappointment. Everywhere, and
- 52:13Speaker 2: Davonte Adams made a big oldeal just to get traded
- 52:15Speaker 2: to a team that's going that's not even gonna make
- 52:17Speaker 2: a playoffs, So.
- 52:18Speaker 1: That has one more win than the Raiders, right, But yeah,
- 52:21Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about the Jets pretty much.
- 52:23Speaker 1: That on you take away pretty much every point. I'm
- 52:25Speaker 1: just gonna list you this right here. So as far
- 52:28Speaker 1: as with the Mike McDonald defense, fourteen points allowed on defense,
- 52:32Speaker 1: one pick six, a force fumble, one hundred and sixty
- 52:34Speaker 1: nine passing yards allowed, eighty nine total rushing yards allowed
- 52:38Speaker 1: in a shutout in the second half. So that just
- 52:40Speaker 1: showing Mike McDonald he's finally finding his feet as far
- 52:43Speaker 1: as being that defensive guy in Seattle, And hey, you're
- 52:47Speaker 1: number one in the NFC West right now, so you
- 52:49Speaker 1: can you control your own destiny. And you play Arizona
- 52:52Speaker 1: next week. So if you win next week, you pretty
- 52:56Speaker 1: much have the NFC West on lock because or unless
- 52:59Speaker 1: you have a drastic collapse, which I can't really see
- 53:03Speaker 1: happening here. But as far as a team that's happened
- 53:05Speaker 1: a drastic collapse right here, that Atlanta Falcons they played
- 53:09Speaker 1: up against the LA Chargers, charges they won seventeen to
- 53:11Speaker 1: thirteen Falcons. After being six and three, they have lost
- 53:15Speaker 1: three in a row, featuring four Kirk Cousins interceptions. Here
- 53:19Speaker 1: any takeaways from this one.
- 53:22Speaker 2: Ah man, I don't know what happened. They were playing
- 53:27Speaker 2: really good at the beginning of the season. They've dropped
- 53:28Speaker 2: all these games these last month, you know, So it's like, yeah,
- 53:33Speaker 2: they're just shooting themselves on the foot and it's Kirk Cousins.
- 53:35Speaker 2: I think it's a Kirk Cousins issue. I think the
- 53:38Speaker 2: guys are still doing their job. We see them produce.
- 53:40Speaker 2: We've seen Jake Lennon produce. Kyle Pitch was getting involved
- 53:42Speaker 2: earlier in the season, no longer involved. It's it's kind
- 53:46Speaker 2: of I don't know how to answer Darniel MOUONEI was
- 53:49Speaker 2: definitely at a whole, whole nother player to start this season.
- 53:52Speaker 2: It's just I think it comes down to quarterback play.
- 53:54Speaker 2: I think it comes down to coaching. I think it
- 53:56Speaker 2: comes down to decision making, and I just think there
- 53:58Speaker 2: has to be something that gets figured out because they're
- 54:00Speaker 2: gonna be left behind and out the playoffs. Because right
- 54:02Speaker 2: now they are out the playoffs. I think or they
- 54:04Speaker 2: might be yeah, they are. They are out the playoffs
- 54:06Speaker 2: right now. So, uh, you kind of played your way
- 54:08Speaker 2: into the situation when in reality we all thought y'all
- 54:10Speaker 2: were gonna take that next step forward. And I don't
- 54:12Speaker 2: think it's a defense problem either, because his defense is
- 54:14Speaker 2: holding teams down to and they're they're just and Kirk
- 54:17Speaker 2: Cousins keeps giving the ball back to the to the offense.
- 54:20Speaker 2: It's kind of hard to continue to play at a
- 54:22Speaker 2: high level when you're constantly on the field and Bijon.
- 54:26Speaker 2: It's also weird too because Bejon is having his better
- 54:28Speaker 2: games in these in these losses. Yeah, so his last
- 54:33Speaker 2: four games, he's he's really stepped up quite a bit.
- 54:36Speaker 2: And it's just not it's not going anywhere for this team.
- 54:38Speaker 2: And I think they have to look at themselves and
- 54:40Speaker 2: whether do they want to keep riding with Kirk Cousins,
- 54:42Speaker 2: which is crazy to say, or do you want to
- 54:44Speaker 2: turn it over to Michael Pennocks and maybe see what
- 54:47Speaker 2: you can do. You know what I mean. Michael Penix
- 54:50Speaker 2: isn't getting any younger himself, so let's just say that. Yeah,
- 54:55Speaker 2: so right, yeah, so you gotta we gotta see maybe
- 55:00Speaker 2: one more week and see if this continues because is
- 55:03Speaker 2: right now it's not looking pretty for the for the Falcons,
- 55:05Speaker 2: but you know what it is looking pretty the Chargers.
- 55:06Speaker 2: The Chargers are looking like the good football team sucks JK. Dobbins.
- 55:10Speaker 2: Not season enduring, not season ending, guys, not season ending.
- 55:13Speaker 2: So but that's that's.
- 55:16Speaker 1: I'm not saying you jinx it, but.
- 55:20Speaker 3: I mean it happened.
- 55:21Speaker 2: It was bound to happen. I mean it's not let's
- 55:23Speaker 2: not let's not say that consistency is in the thing.
- 55:27Speaker 2: You know, you know JK. Dobbins. If one thing is
- 55:30Speaker 2: JK Dobbins is consistent, let's just say that. So, but
- 55:34Speaker 2: it's not season ending. He's out four weeks, you know,
- 55:37Speaker 2: it's not too It's serious, but not too serious. So
- 55:39Speaker 2: that that's a good sign for him. He'll be back
- 55:41Speaker 2: around playoff time if they continue to win football games,
- 55:44Speaker 2: which I think they will. You know, they we have
- 55:46Speaker 2: a tough game with them coming up, so it's gonna
- 55:48Speaker 2: be a little scary, but you know, they're they're frightening
- 55:51Speaker 2: ways to win, I think, not not necessarily lighting up
- 55:54Speaker 2: the scoreboard justin Herbert didn't do that in this game,
- 55:56Speaker 2: but Lad McConkie did light at the scoreboard, and I
- 55:59Speaker 2: think that was probably a difference maker. Nine receptions, one
- 56:02Speaker 2: hundred and seventeen yards, looking like a number one receiver,
- 56:04Speaker 2: looking like a guy that that they they hit on it.
- 56:07Speaker 2: It was a great draft pick by them. They're playing
- 56:09Speaker 2: good football defensively. They all know their roles. I don't
- 56:13Speaker 2: think anyone's necessarily I mean, Derwin James is always gonna
- 56:16Speaker 2: do Derwin James things, but no one's necessarily. No one's
- 56:19Speaker 2: necessarily standing out for the for the Chargers defense. But
- 56:24Speaker 2: they're all doing their jobs.
- 56:26Speaker 1: Yeah, no, for sure. And then okay, let me list
- 56:28Speaker 1: this quick stat So, first off, I think the Falcons
- 56:31Speaker 1: they outplayed the Chargers except Kirk Cousins here, Justin Herbert.
- 56:35Speaker 1: The biggest thing difference here was justin Herbert didn't turn
- 56:39Speaker 1: over the ball, made smart decisions. Kirk Cousins did it.
- 56:41Speaker 1: So let me read you some stats about the Falcons defense.
- 56:44Speaker 1: One hundred and eighty seven total yards allowed, no touchdounds allowed,
- 56:48Speaker 1: five sacks, five tackle for losses, six PPUs, eight quarterbacks hits,
- 56:52Speaker 1: one forced fumble in a fumble recovery, and they still lost.
- 56:56Speaker 1: And they still lost. That is crazy. So I just
- 57:00Speaker 1: think that the Falcons defense, they're finally up to a
- 57:03Speaker 1: level where Rahie Morris has him playing damn good football.
- 57:06Speaker 1: But this offense is just not putting two and two together.
- 57:10Speaker 1: They're just getting worse and worse and worse. You know
- 57:13Speaker 1: one thing that I noticed that sounds a little bit weird.
- 57:16Speaker 1: After teams other than Philly, other than Philly this year,
- 57:20Speaker 1: teams after they play the Cowboys they start losing. They
- 57:23Speaker 1: start losing. It's because they play their super Bowl. That's
- 57:26Speaker 1: pretty much what it is. The Falcons after beating the Cowboys,
- 57:29Speaker 1: they've lost three straight. The Commanders, they've lost, the San
- 57:32Speaker 1: Francisco San Francisco forty nine Ers, they've lost New Orleans Saints,
- 57:36Speaker 1: they've lost I keep going with this. The Ravens, they're
- 57:39Speaker 1: not getting any better. So see what I'm saying here.
- 57:42Speaker 1: But I just think that the Chargers, Yes, Lad McConkey,
- 57:47Speaker 1: he is playing like a number one receiver right now.
- 57:49Speaker 1: And I know we didn't talk about it last week
- 57:52Speaker 1: as far as against the Ravens, but I just think
- 57:54Speaker 1: against these lesser tier teams, they look like this great
- 57:58Speaker 1: team that's fighting in any ways to win. But when
- 58:01Speaker 1: they go up against the Kansas City, the Baltimore, the Buffalo.
- 58:05Speaker 2: I feel like there's jo Quinton Johnson did drop some
- 58:08Speaker 2: pretty three big passes in this in last week, So
- 58:11Speaker 2: who knows, who knows?
- 58:13Speaker 3: If I don't, I don't know.
- 58:13Speaker 2: If I don't think it changes a lot, but it
- 58:15Speaker 2: does change something if he makes those grabs.
- 58:17Speaker 1: Yeah, no, for sure. I just think that they just
- 58:20Speaker 1: don't have that talent yet to compete with them yet
- 58:23Speaker 1: not top tier teams. I still think.
- 58:26Speaker 3: I hope against that, but not yet.
- 58:29Speaker 1: You know, at the rate, at the rate they're going
- 58:31Speaker 1: within a year, within a year they turn or Jim Harball,
- 58:35Speaker 1: Jim or john Yeah, Jim Harball, he he pretty much
- 58:38Speaker 1: turned this team around pretty much.
- 58:40Speaker 2: But I pray on their downfall, I will say that well.
- 58:43Speaker 1: Talking about another team he played on the downfall for
- 58:45Speaker 1: let's go and talk about this team, the Cincinnati Bengals,
- 58:48Speaker 1: who are now four and eight win up against the
- 58:50Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers forty four to thirty eight was a final
- 58:54Speaker 1: score eighty two total points in this game right here,
- 58:57Speaker 1: Steelers are now nine to three official league or in
- 59:01Speaker 1: the driver's seat as far as for the AFC North,
- 59:03Speaker 1: Bengals have a tough time of making the playoffs or
- 59:07Speaker 1: have a low possibility to make the playoffs. Here, Josh,
- 59:11Speaker 1: go ahead yours.
- 59:12Speaker 2: I just love seeing the Bengals play great offensive football
- 59:15Speaker 2: against a really good defense, you know, just feeling like
- 59:18Speaker 2: they're gonna do something and then not doing shit. You know.
- 59:22Speaker 2: So it's like, I just love the Bengals. You know,
- 59:25Speaker 2: losing football games four and eight looks amazing. While we're
- 59:27Speaker 2: sitting eleven to one a top of the AFC, just
- 59:31Speaker 2: high and mighty with our two back backs Bowls and
- 59:34Speaker 2: the and the Bengals are just over here riding off
- 59:37Speaker 2: a win from twenty to twenty. So it's twenty twenty one.
- 59:40Speaker 2: So it's like, you know, it just happens, just happens great,
- 59:44Speaker 2: you know. I just I just love football. I love football.
- 59:47Speaker 2: I love when the Bengals lose football also. So that's
- 59:51Speaker 2: that's all I wanted to say.
- 59:52Speaker 3: But it is.
- 59:52Speaker 2: It is great for fantasy football. It is great that
- 59:54Speaker 2: they lose football games but still produce in fantasy football.
- 59:57Speaker 2: Let's just say that. You know, Joe Burrow, thank you.
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: I have you on my on one of my fantasy teams.
- 1:00:02Speaker 2: Jamar Chase, I have you on another. So thank y'all
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: for doing great things for me and just as a whole.
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: You know so, y'all just suck at football, you know so.
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: It's like defensively, y'all just suck, you know so. But
- 1:00:15Speaker 2: a team that doesn't suck is the Pittsburgh Steelers. Listen,
- 1:00:17Speaker 2: they and I think this is a good win for them.
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: They're able to keep up offensively with the Cincinnati Bengals.
- 1:00:22Speaker 2: Russell Wilson has a big day, George Pickens makes them
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: make some good makes a great grab along the sideline,
- 1:00:29Speaker 2: a great throw by Russell Wilson. But I think the
- 1:00:32Speaker 2: I think the emergence patt fire move had a good one.
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: But these running backs, these running backs are definitely the
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: game changer. I feel, you know, Russ through over four
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: hundred yards, yes, but Naji sixteen to seventy five, a touchdown,
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: Jalen Warren four catches, fifty five yards, Cordell Patterson got
- 1:00:48Speaker 2: involved a little bit in this one. So they know
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: what to do offensively right now. I think they they're
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: finding their strengths and playing towards them. And I think
- 1:00:56Speaker 2: keeping up with a high powered offense like this like
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: the Bengals, the Steelers are are making are making some
- 1:01:02Speaker 2: moves to put them into another into another tier of
- 1:01:05Speaker 2: teams in the AFC.
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: Yeah, no, for sure. And I think that the Cincinnati
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: Bengals they're gonna score on anybody. I think you could
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: pretty much mark it off that they're gonna score twenty four,
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: twenty seven points, at least twenty four, at least twenty four,
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: because then they scored. Did they score twenty four or
- 1:01:23Speaker 1: twenty five?
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: It's a chief something is I just know that we're
- 1:01:26Speaker 2: in the eight section, you know, eight losses that they have, so.
- 1:01:31Speaker 3: No good.
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: So let me read you this right here. The Steelers
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: are averaging twenty three points per game. I'm rounding up here.
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: They had twenty seven points in the first half. This
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: should say everything about the Cincinnati Bengals defense right here.
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: And I know there was a couple of turnovers by
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: Joe Burrow here, but come on, defense, you have to
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: make at least can you make two stops in the game.
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: Can you at least make two to three stops in
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: the game. They cannot do that. And I think I
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: know I brought it up, but this is what happens
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: when you pay the top five most As far as
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: for your offense, and then bottom five is for your defense.
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: You're gonna get these exact results here, and the Bengals
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: have to play perfect football and they damn near are
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: playing perfect football on offense, and they're still losing these
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: games because you go back to Kansas City the Ravens
- 1:02:21Speaker 1: twice and then even this game. So I'm not saying
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: you can flip their record. They're eight and four, but
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: there's just so many of these games where they're right
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: there and they just end up losing. But as far
- 1:02:33Speaker 1: as with the Steelers right here, I think it's just
- 1:02:35Speaker 1: shown week after week after week. Mike Tomlin he made
- 1:02:38Speaker 1: the right decision to keep Russell Wilson in there, or
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: put Russell Wilson in over justin Fields because he has
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: this kind of upside. So I think that you need
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: this game for the Steelers because your defense isn't always
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: going to perform. So this is good for the Steelers.
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: I'm not saying again. I know I said they're contenders,
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: but I think they're that bottom tier contender. We'll see
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: against Kansas City. That's a game that I'm looking at.
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: That's a game that I'm just circling.
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: I'm like, Okay, Christmas Day.
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it is Christmas Day. Oh no, but it's
- 1:03:13Speaker 1: on Netflix.
- 1:03:13Speaker 3: Huh.
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: We lost last Christmas so I'm sorry.
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: Yeah, no, but all right, let's go to.
- 1:03:20Speaker 2: Movie terrible loss too.
- 1:03:24Speaker 1: Who was it two again?
- 1:03:25Speaker 3: Oh?
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: It was to the Raiders?
- 1:03:26Speaker 2: Oh the Raiders?
- 1:03:30Speaker 1: No, but all right, let's go to move on to
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: this last Sunday game right here, the New England Patriots
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: versus the Indianapolis Colts right here, in which the Colts
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: won twenty five to twenty four, going for two with
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: I think ten seconds left to go, ended up winning.
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: Any takeaways from this one, I.
- 1:03:47Speaker 2: Just think, uh, not really much. I think Anthony Richardson
- 1:03:50Speaker 2: kind of he didn't have his the last kind of
- 1:03:53Speaker 2: games he's had the last couple of weeks throwing the
- 1:03:56Speaker 2: ball wise, but running he does have this where it's
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: able when it does break down out when the pass
- 1:04:01Speaker 2: isn't necessarily at the highest level, he can't run the football.
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: Nine carries forty eight yards a touchdown. You know, you get
- 1:04:07Speaker 2: Jonathan Taylor. Taylor involved in this one. Twenty five carries
- 1:04:10Speaker 2: ninety six one receiving touchdown, so they definitely knew where
- 1:04:14Speaker 2: they they went to their strength, which is running the
- 1:04:15Speaker 2: football in this one. I mean when the past game
- 1:04:17Speaker 2: wasn't going. The Patriots have these games where their defense
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: does play like what they who they what their identity is,
- 1:04:22Speaker 2: and that is a defensive team. It's just hard. You know,
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: they're still learning how to figure out with the new regime.
- 1:04:27Speaker 2: Drake May. I think this is a good game from him.
- 1:04:30Speaker 2: Not the best, but a good game from a rookie.
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: Vermondra Stevenson gets back on track a little bit in
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: this one with the rushing the ball. Wise, you know,
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: he's he struggled with the constitutency on his averages, but
- 1:04:41Speaker 2: this week averaging four yards per carry is a good sign.
- 1:04:43Speaker 2: It was a good game. I just don't really care.
- 1:04:45Speaker 2: I mean I care much for it. Both teams are
- 1:04:47Speaker 2: kind of just like, no, we're not worried where they're
- 1:04:49Speaker 2: gonna be at come playoff time. Patriots are really trying
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: to see where they're how much they can grow Drake
- 1:04:54Speaker 2: May into there's good quarterback. In the same for the Colts,
- 1:04:57Speaker 2: how much they can grow Anthony Richardson into being a
- 1:04:59Speaker 2: good quarterback.
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: Yeah no, okay, so I'm gonna just say one thing,
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: so again, I'm I'm dying on this, Anthony Richardson training
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: all I'm just saying, ever since he came back, two
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: out of three of his games.
- 1:05:10Speaker 3: Have been game winning.
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: That's all I'm saying. Hey, he keeps playing, he keeps
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: playing better and better, and okay, I think there's almost
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: a guaranteed, almost as far as if you were a
- 1:05:25Speaker 1: betting man. First thing is Jeremy Sohan over six rebounds,
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: Kobe White over one and a half, three.
- 1:05:31Speaker 2: Scottie Barnes over twenty seven and a half points plus rebounds.
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: Damn, that's that's very every game. That's specific right there.
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: And also two fucking Colts receivers dropping open touchdowns. That's
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: almost a first year every single week. I don't know
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: I could count. I count at least like six seven
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: times throughout the year where a Colts receiver has dropped
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: a touchdown and it could end up changing the game.
- 1:05:57Speaker 1: So Anthony Richardson, his stats should look out lot better here.
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: But it's just these Colds receivers dropping touchdowns and they
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: still have a shot full of the playoffs. They do
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: play the Broncos after the bye week, so they kind
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: of do control their own destiny here. So we'll see
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: how that looks. But all right, let's go in and
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: talk about it.
- 1:06:17Speaker 2: If only I was a betting man, if only I
- 1:06:19Speaker 2: was a betting.
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: Man, if only Josh, But all right, let's go to
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: I was.
- 1:06:24Speaker 2: A good betting man. Dog shit five for six, three
- 1:06:28Speaker 2: for four, four for five, two for three, seven for eight,
- 1:06:33Speaker 2: Like fucking.
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: I think it's so funny.
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: Give me great. I'm really the greatest better of all time.
- 1:06:40Speaker 2: I'm the greatest parlay picker of all time. I'm just
- 1:06:42Speaker 2: gonna say that.
- 1:06:44Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm But do I win any money? Fuck?
- 1:06:48Speaker 2: No, I don't win ship. I don't win no money
- 1:06:51Speaker 2: at all. I win other people money. I'll say that
- 1:06:54Speaker 2: I win other people money. But do I win myself money.
- 1:06:57Speaker 2: I don't win any money. No money in my pucket
- 1:06:59Speaker 2: from the people.
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: I think it's so funny that I don't go two
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: weeks without betting, and I just see all these bets
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: throughout the week. You're just betting just five for six, six,
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: six or seven. And I finally bet on Sunday, and
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: I went right away, and I did research.
- 1:07:15Speaker 2: I go dig deep, guys, guys, I dig deep. I
- 1:07:18Speaker 2: lower lines, I bring I brought John Morant from twenty
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: four and a half points to fourteen and a half.
- 1:07:26Speaker 2: I guaranteed that it was gonna hit. I brought. I
- 1:07:30Speaker 2: brought Who did I bring down? I brought down. I
- 1:07:35Speaker 2: brought down Austin Reeves from three and a half three
- 1:07:38Speaker 2: pointers down to one and a half. I brought like
- 1:07:40Speaker 2: I'm bringing like, I like, I keep some of them same.
- 1:07:43Speaker 2: I keep some of them same. You know, Jason Jatham
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: can remain the same little bit. Yeah, you know Anthony Edwards,
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: I brought his line down on twenty four and a
- 1:07:49Speaker 2: half didn't hit. What the shit? Dude? Like, come on
- 1:07:51Speaker 2: and then? And I have a rule. I have a rule, guys.
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: I don't bet on a person unless they do it.
- 1:07:56Speaker 2: Let's say they played twenty games so far this season,
- 1:07:58Speaker 2: they have most teams, they don't they don't do it
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: thirteen out of twenty times or more. I'm not betting
- 1:08:05Speaker 2: on it. I'm not betting on it, you know. And
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: I just happen to get that bullshit where they get
- 1:08:10Speaker 2: freaking like there that one day where they don't do it,
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: you know, you know, and it's kind of annoying already.
- 1:08:16Speaker 2: But am I gonna keep showing up? You know? And
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: in my life when I've kept showing up. When in
- 1:08:21Speaker 2: my life, when I've kept showing up, guys, it's panned out.
- 1:08:25Speaker 2: It's panned out in some good ways.
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: You know.
- 1:08:26Speaker 2: We can talk about this later on another on another podcast,
- 1:08:30Speaker 2: you know, maybe. But when you keep showing up, when
- 1:08:34Speaker 2: it when it keeps, when you keep showing up, bro,
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: it's gonna hit eventually. That's all I'm saying. I'm gonna
- 1:08:39Speaker 2: be a millionaire off this stuff one day. It was
- 1:08:41Speaker 2: just because I'm gonna keep showing up. But right now
- 1:08:44Speaker 2: I'm losing at least two hundred a week.
- 1:08:46Speaker 4: I'll say that, what if y'all want to follow my picks,
- 1:08:56Speaker 4: If y'all want to follow my picks, just let y'all
- 1:08:58Speaker 4: know percent of the time I'm right.
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: Percent of the time I'm right that you just gotta
- 1:09:04Speaker 2: pick which ones. Yeah, I just gotta pick which ones.
- 1:09:07Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying.
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: Yeah, no, no, for sure. But all right, well let's
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: go and talk about your team. Actually right here, the
- 1:09:14Speaker 1: Las Vegas Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs. Chiefs they win
- 1:09:17Speaker 1: nineteen seventeen off the alleged false star illegal shift. Whichever
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: one it was, whichever one it was, whichever one they changed,
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: They changed into a legal shift, even though the play
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: is supposed to be stopped after illegal shift. But anyways,
- 1:09:29Speaker 1: don't matter that Chiefs. They go to eleven, one, six
- 1:09:34Speaker 1: and zero at home right now, Raiders two and ten
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: looking for that number one overall draft pick flows.
- 1:09:39Speaker 2: Yours, winners win. What do you want me to say?
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: What do you want me to say? Like it just
- 1:09:45Speaker 2: happens to fall in your favor all the time.
- 1:09:48Speaker 3: You know, it's you.
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: Know, everyone's gonna hate. You know, we're not this team,
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: We're not that team. Reinforcements are coming. I'm just gonna
- 1:09:56Speaker 2: say it again. Reinforcements are coming. You know. It just
- 1:09:58Speaker 2: it just doesn't matter to me what anyone thinks they
- 1:10:01Speaker 2: could pick the Bills. I picked the Bills. They're nine
- 1:10:04Speaker 2: times out of ten. That one time they do win,
- 1:10:06Speaker 2: it's in the regular season. You know what, the time
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: we do win, would it matters the most? So I
- 1:10:10Speaker 2: don't really care about anything. I don't really have any
- 1:10:12Speaker 2: stats to give you.
- 1:10:13Speaker 3: I just give you.
- 1:10:14Speaker 2: DJ Humphries is coming. You know, I don't think it
- 1:10:16Speaker 2: could get any worse than wan you morees, So I'm
- 1:10:19Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say that. And because it's pretty bad.
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: It's pretty bad right now.
- 1:10:24Speaker 3: It's pretty bad.
- 1:10:25Speaker 2: Right now, Kingsley, I'm cutting up some slack or rookie
- 1:10:27Speaker 2: still trying to develop, still trying to get into the thing.
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: He hasn't really played. They had to move Joe Toney
- 1:10:31Speaker 2: out to left tackle this week for a little bit.
- 1:10:32Speaker 2: They'll just say that's how bad it got. That's how
- 1:10:35Speaker 2: bad it got. So if DJ Humphrey is a pro bowler,
- 1:10:38Speaker 2: big contract before he towards a cl if he doesn't
- 1:10:42Speaker 2: show up and play better than one, you morees and
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: I don't know, you know, then I don't. Then we
- 1:10:45Speaker 2: have some problems. Then then I'll then I'll start saying,
- 1:10:48Speaker 2: you know, and I think, I think dude Mahomes is
- 1:10:51Speaker 2: getting pressured like crazy right now overly the last five
- 1:10:54Speaker 2: weeks from the from the tackles interior best in tier
- 1:10:57Speaker 2: in the entire NFL. But we're looking at left tackle
- 1:10:59Speaker 2: right to it's a problem, you know, And you know,
- 1:11:03Speaker 2: we look at this game. We look at this game. Sure,
- 1:11:05Speaker 2: the Chiefs only scored one touchdown offensively, but when you
- 1:11:10Speaker 2: watch these games, they should be scoring at least thirty
- 1:11:12Speaker 2: of a game, forty a game, and and I'm not
- 1:11:15Speaker 2: I'm not over exaggerating because I'm a Chiefs fan. If
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: you go back and watch these football games versus the Bills,
- 1:11:19Speaker 2: versus the Panthers, versus every team we played. If you
- 1:11:23Speaker 2: go back and look every single time something good happens,
- 1:11:26Speaker 2: you know what happens. The next play was flagged by
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: Jowan Taylor or a pressure from freaking Jania Moore's.
- 1:11:32Speaker 3: Dude, so it' it's it's.
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: The clock or in Exavier Worthy not getting his damn
- 1:11:38Speaker 2: feed in. Let's just say that. So so you know,
- 1:11:42Speaker 2: there there's times where there's offense, they can be great,
- 1:11:44Speaker 2: and I do I guarantee you we are not at
- 1:11:47Speaker 2: the fullest strength could possibly. We've seen some positive things.
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: Noah Gray is starting to get a lot of the
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: looks that Travis Kelce gets and it's becoming a good
- 1:11:54Speaker 2: one to two punch. DeAndre Hopkins is starting to figure
- 1:11:57Speaker 2: it out a lot more with Patrick Mahomes. He's trusting him.
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: Isaiah Pacheco, I had had a There's there's the thing
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: that Isaiya Pacheco can do that Kareem Hunt can't do,
- 1:12:05Speaker 2: and that's rip off big runs, and we saw it
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: in this one. With that big thirty four yarder. Isay
- 1:12:09Speaker 2: Pacheco's gonna start getting more involved over the next couple
- 1:12:11Speaker 2: of weeks and receiving wise, he was starting to do
- 1:12:13Speaker 2: a lot more coming into this season, and then Hollywood's coming.
- 1:12:18Speaker 2: Let's just say that, Hollywood Brown, it will be here
- 1:12:20Speaker 2: by playoff time, and it's gonna open up a lot
- 1:12:22Speaker 2: more for this offense and this defense. That's where this
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: is where the problem is starting to become a problem.
- 1:12:29Speaker 2: I'm sure teams aren't scoring, which so surprising to me.
- 1:12:32Speaker 2: I think it's still so surprising that teams are not scoring,
- 1:12:35Speaker 2: but these dbs are hurting us. I think that what's
- 1:12:38Speaker 2: what's saving us right now is Trim mcduffy is locked down.
- 1:12:40Speaker 2: I'm sure he's I mean, he's getting targeted more now
- 1:12:43Speaker 2: because you know, he's having to do a lot more
- 1:12:45Speaker 2: over his last couple of weeks. But Chris Jones, George Carlafters,
- 1:12:49Speaker 2: Charles Manhue, Joshua Hus they're getting the job done when
- 1:12:52Speaker 2: it comes to pressure in the quarterback. I mean, Josh
- 1:12:54Speaker 2: Allen and Lamar Jackson gave us fits because they can
- 1:12:56Speaker 2: run the football. But when we play regularquarterbacks like an
- 1:13:00Speaker 2: Aidan O'Connell and you bring pressure and George Calaptus is
- 1:13:03Speaker 2: getting there making big, big plays. This defensive line is
- 1:13:06Speaker 2: stepping up for us in a big way when it
- 1:13:07Speaker 2: matters the most. And the linebackers and you know, when
- 1:13:10Speaker 2: it comes to stopping the run, I mean this is
- 1:13:11Speaker 2: the first week where the run was not stopped, let
- 1:13:13Speaker 2: me say that. And the runners not stopped this week.
- 1:13:16Speaker 2: And it just happens when you when you play certain guys.
- 1:13:18Speaker 2: But you know, I'm not worried we're gonna be in
- 1:13:23Speaker 2: the super Bowl when when the season's over.
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: All, I'm saying I'm not talking about the Raiders right here.
- 1:13:28Speaker 1: I'm gonna just talk about strictly the Chiefs. So I'm
- 1:13:31Speaker 1: gonna say this secondary outside of McDuffie and the tackles
- 1:13:35Speaker 1: could end up being the downfall.
- 1:13:36Speaker 2: Of No I agree, I'm not disagreeing with you at all.
- 1:13:40Speaker 1: That's the one spot where it's like, okay, there is
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: a real weakness there, and it could something against the
- 1:13:47Speaker 1: great great teams because obviously against the Raiders and other teams,
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: good teams the Chiefs wyill take advantage of that, the
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: talent advantage, but against the teams who have the same
- 1:13:56Speaker 1: level of talent, almost the same level of quarterback play.
- 1:13:59Speaker 1: It it's gonna be close. And honestly, I can't say
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: nothing about the Chiefs really. I'm just waiting for the
- 1:14:07Speaker 1: big game versus the Steelers late in the year where
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: they're possibly fighting for seeding still because the Chiefs at
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: this point it looks like they're gonna have to damn
- 1:14:15Speaker 1: near win out in order to get that one seed
- 1:14:18Speaker 1: over the Buffalo Bills at this point. But I think
- 1:14:22Speaker 1: that game and then come playoff time, that's what we'll
- 1:14:25Speaker 1: really see. I'm not worried about Mahomes. I'm not worried
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: about the offense in general. Honestly, I think that they
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: could overcome that tackles issue. But I think just as
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: far as this secondary, they can be beat. They can
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: definitely be beat, be beat. So we'll see. All I
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: could say is just let's wait and see. That's all
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: I could say. But all right, let's go ah and
- 1:14:46Speaker 1: move on to this next one. Miami Dolphins Green Bay
- 1:14:49Speaker 1: Packers Thursday Night Football, thirty to seventeen final score. That's
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: another game where the Miami Dolphins they don't win in
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: the cold. And also one more thing, Mike McDonald McDaniel's
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: record versus playoff teams ever since he's become a head
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: coach three and fourteen, So damn yeah, all right, good.
- 1:15:09Speaker 2: All right, Well new arm two couldn't get it done
- 1:15:11Speaker 2: in the cold, so let's just keep it moving.
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: Hey, he put up a bunch of points from you
- 1:15:17Speaker 1: in fantasy football outside of you that.
- 1:15:18Speaker 2: Hey, yeah, when you can dump it off to these
- 1:15:20Speaker 2: when you can dump it off and they can run,
- 1:15:22Speaker 2: you know, but when it comes to making big plays,
- 1:15:23Speaker 2: that dude can't do it himself in the colt. It's
- 1:15:25Speaker 2: just it's weird, you know, weak arms, just it just
- 1:15:28Speaker 2: happens that way. You know, Jordan Love was definitely built
- 1:15:31Speaker 2: for that type of situation. Josh, Yeah, you know, so.
- 1:15:34Speaker 2: I think the stats are gonna look definitely into his
- 1:15:37Speaker 2: favor for sure, But you know, they're just they're just
- 1:15:42Speaker 2: something that can't get done with the Dolphins this year.
- 1:15:44Speaker 2: And it's a little weird because we expect them to
- 1:15:46Speaker 2: be the high powered offense that puts up a lot
- 1:15:48Speaker 2: of points no matter what. But this run game that
- 1:15:50Speaker 2: was clicking last year, it's not clicking the exact same
- 1:15:53Speaker 2: that it was. Davon Chien look look human in this one. Raheemoster,
- 1:15:57Speaker 2: it's only getting older. He's definitely looking older in this one.
- 1:16:01Speaker 2: It's it's it's hard, I think, for them to figure
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: out what they're true identity is because what they've what
- 1:16:06Speaker 2: they've been accustomed to doing in the last two seasons
- 1:16:08Speaker 2: just isn't happening for them. As far as the Packer's side,
- 1:16:12Speaker 2: they're definitely I believe in that. I think they're in
- 1:16:17Speaker 2: the Stillers territory when it comes to being a contender.
- 1:16:20Speaker 2: On the on the other side, I think they they
- 1:16:22Speaker 2: definitely fear them. You definitely know that they can they
- 1:16:24Speaker 2: can keep up with you, they can defensively, they can
- 1:16:27Speaker 2: do what they need to do, but they don't scare
- 1:16:29Speaker 2: you completely entirely like a Buffalo, Kansas City, like an
- 1:16:31Speaker 2: Eagles Detroit like a Detroit does so. But they're definitely
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: in that tier below where they can make noise. And
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: I think right now they're they're shown that they can
- 1:16:40Speaker 2: win against any type of team in any situation.
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: Yeah, no, for sure, And I just think that the Packers, Yes,
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: they are a good football team like you're saying, But
- 1:16:50Speaker 1: I agree with you as far as a tier below
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: because I think now it's starting to become more prominent. Yes,
- 1:16:55Speaker 1: you have Josh Jacobs there, who's getting a lot of
- 1:16:58Speaker 1: volume on a game the game based, but I think
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: they just need that real number one receiver to step up.
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: I thought it was gonna be Jayden Reid. Then for
- 1:17:06Speaker 1: a second, Christian Watson had a couple of big games,
- 1:17:09Speaker 1: and D'altavian Wicks had some games. Tucker Kraft, he looks
- 1:17:12Speaker 1: like just a good tied end. But I think in
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: order for them to compete with the real teams in
- 1:17:18Speaker 1: the NFC, the Philly, the Detroit, they're gonna need a
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: real number one receiver because this defense is great. They
- 1:17:26Speaker 1: still or they didn't even have jy R. Alexander in
- 1:17:28Speaker 1: this game. So it just shows that their secondary can
- 1:17:31Speaker 1: get a lot better. And they had some other missing
- 1:17:33Speaker 1: pieces I can't think of, but they're right there. They
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: play the Lions next week or Thursday Night Football, so
- 1:17:40Speaker 1: we'll see, we'll see how good they really are. I
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: think this is just this is just time where a
- 1:17:46Speaker 1: bunch of these teams are they gonna answer the call
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: or they're gonna let up. But the Dolphins same thing
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: right here. They could have answered the call but again,
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: they didn't answer no call. They just left it on
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: D and D but again, and it's gonna be tough
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: for them to make the playoffs. Even if they do
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: make the playoffs, they're gonna lose, let's be honest. But
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: all right, let's go to move on to the second
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: to last game of this NFL week, which it was
- 1:18:10Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys versus the New York Giants. Cowboys they
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: win twenty seven to twenty and win their first game
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: since December twenty was the twentieth Yeah no, December twenty
- 1:18:25Speaker 1: first yeah December No No No nineteenth December nineteenth against
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: the Lions Monday Night Football. That was the last time
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: they won a football game. No Saturday night Football. That
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: was the last time they won a home game in
- 1:18:37Speaker 1: AT and T Stadium. Any takeaways from here, Josh, So.
- 1:18:41Speaker 2: Are you gonna make the playoffs at this point?
- 1:18:44Speaker 1: Bro? I don't even know. This defense is getting better
- 1:18:48Speaker 1: and better by the week. They're getting better and better,
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: and d Loss coming back. Trayvon Diggs, he's coming back.
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: I don't want to get much hope. I'm not gonna lie.
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: I don't want much hope. I wanted to go for
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: a draft. But at this point, if I don't mind
- 1:19:03Speaker 1: the win, I don't mind the win. As a fan,
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: you don't mind seeing your favorite team win. But at
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: the same yeah, at the same time, it's like, oh,
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: well we could have had ash and Gent. We're out
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: of that sweep stakes now, Travis Hunter. So we're out
- 1:19:18Speaker 1: of those sweepstakes. But we're actually looking like a real
- 1:19:21Speaker 1: football team now. I'll tell you that. I'll tell you that.
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: But again, it's it's a Giants, it's a Giant, It's
- 1:19:29Speaker 1: the Commanders. We always beat them every single year. I'm
- 1:19:32Speaker 1: not worried about those teams, you know what I.
- 1:19:34Speaker 2: Mean, Giants, fav Tyrone, Tracy the ball bro killing.
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: Bro'. We're finally like shutting down teams as far as
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: running the football.
- 1:19:45Speaker 2: Finally mikel at least steal like nine carries. Keep handing
- 1:19:49Speaker 2: them the rock like if it turns into something, yeah, no,
- 1:19:52Speaker 2: but it's marn overshown to marn Overshown Dog.
- 1:19:56Speaker 3: He's a dog University.
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:19:59Speaker 3: I really don't know all Pro this year, but I think.
- 1:20:02Speaker 2: I really don't know what to say about the Cowboys
- 1:20:03Speaker 2: is like, what are y'all doing, Like make a decision.
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: You know, I don't know, man, I don't know. I'm
- 1:20:11Speaker 2: and now we're gonna hear people all kober Rush is
- 1:20:13Speaker 2: better than that, Like shut up, bro, get out of here,
- 1:20:15Speaker 2: like casual, like you know, like it's like, yeah, I'd
- 1:20:20Speaker 2: rather the Cowboys lose, so you don't have to make
- 1:20:22Speaker 2: that argument.
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: I'll tell you what though, Michah Micah, ever since he
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: came back, he looks like the best I'm not even
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: being biased here. You could add in TJ Watte, Miles
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: Garrett as far as defensive player. I'm not saying defensive
- 1:20:38Speaker 1: player of the year, but ever since he's came back,
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: he's looked like the best defensive player in the league.
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: And he's been wrecking games by himself. And you see
- 1:20:47Speaker 1: him and Demo in the future or tomorrow and overshown,
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: they're gonna be a serious problem. They're gonna be a
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: serious problem. All I'm saying is that I'm still doing
- 1:20:55Speaker 1: my drafts here, Josh. If we get a dual carter
- 1:20:58Speaker 1: from Penn State happens to wear the same number that
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: Michael Parsons wore, this defense, I'm not gonna say it,
- 1:21:07Speaker 1: but this defense that they'll be there they'll be there.
- 1:21:11Speaker 2: Todd Burks, Todds Burks is gonna get jected by the
- 1:21:13Speaker 2: Keennessee Chiefs.
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: Is protect on his last year.
- 1:21:20Speaker 2: He has one more season.
- 1:21:21Speaker 3: Oh but they're not going to pay him.
- 1:21:25Speaker 1: You don't think so.
- 1:21:26Speaker 2: He'll be twenty seven years old.
- 1:21:28Speaker 1: Oh damn yeah no, no, okay, well all right, let's
- 1:21:31Speaker 1: go to move on to this last game right here,
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: Chicago Bears versus the Detroit Lions. The Lions they won
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: twenty three or twenty with Matt Ibraflus not called him
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: the timeout at all. I guess he thought he was
- 1:21:44Speaker 1: gonna take it with him ended up getting fired. So
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: anything fires, yeah, you know that.
- 1:21:49Speaker 2: Yeah, how did I not see this? Bro? How did
- 1:21:52Speaker 2: I not see Matt?
- 1:21:55Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 1:21:56Speaker 2: I guess I just didn't pay attention. I guess I
- 1:21:58Speaker 2: was just so focused on basketball, Like I just did
- 1:22:00Speaker 2: not look at any Matt ever blues ever flues like
- 1:22:03Speaker 2: news like. I guess that's not my I'm not looking
- 1:22:05Speaker 2: for Matt ever flu like Mat doing today. You know,
- 1:22:09Speaker 2: so I'll say he got fired.
- 1:22:14Speaker 3: Pretty weird.
- 1:22:16Speaker 2: Oh that's crazy. It's about happened.
- 1:22:17Speaker 3: You know.
- 1:22:18Speaker 2: I wonder if he's gonna be this coach of this
- 1:22:21Speaker 2: team next year. Ben Johnson, Yeah, that's what I was thinking,
- 1:22:26Speaker 2: Eric b enemy.
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: Honestly, this sounds crazy right now, but hear me out, Kingsbury,
- 1:22:33Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan, what he may. He may get fired from
- 1:22:39Speaker 1: San Francisco just for a fresh start because it is
- 1:22:42Speaker 1: older team that may try to look somewhere new. And
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: you have KAYLEB Williams, DJ Moore, you have some money
- 1:22:48Speaker 1: backs there. It's all I'm saying. That's a sneaky name
- 1:22:51Speaker 1: right there, to just look out for that. That's all
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: I'm saying. But but I don't know shuh their interim coach.
- 1:23:03Speaker 1: Let me see what the interim coach.
- 1:23:04Speaker 2: I don't think I think right now, Ben Johnson the
- 1:23:09Speaker 2: enemy mm hmm. Kingsbury, I know people are gonna say
- 1:23:14Speaker 2: that's crazy, but the way he has Washington playing right
- 1:23:16Speaker 2: now offensively, Yeah, Rabel's still out there. I doubt that
- 1:23:23Speaker 2: happens though, But Rabel is still out there, so Brian Flores,
- 1:23:29Speaker 2: you know, so we will see.
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: All I'm saying is that if they hire another defensive coach,
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: they're just sending they're just setting themselves up for failure.
- 1:23:37Speaker 2: But Rabel is a different coach from Matt Eberflus. I
- 1:23:40Speaker 2: will say that, you know, I understand his defense, but
- 1:23:43Speaker 2: Rabel is not. He's a great coach. I I don't
- 1:23:46Speaker 2: still don't know how he doesn't how he's not a
- 1:23:48Speaker 2: head coach. You know. That's and some dudes are out
- 1:23:50Speaker 2: here that are head coaches. You know. So it's like, yeah,
- 1:23:54Speaker 2: all right, let's talk about the game, all right, let's
- 1:23:56Speaker 2: talk about the game, all right. I will say that
- 1:24:02Speaker 2: you have Jayden Daniels there, you have Bo Nicks there.
- 1:24:06Speaker 3: I don't care.
- 1:24:07Speaker 2: I'm taking Caleb Williams. No, I don't care. I'm taking
- 1:24:09Speaker 2: Kleb Williams. I don't. I don't give a ship what
- 1:24:11Speaker 2: they've done so far this season. I know I'm not
- 1:24:13Speaker 2: the biggest Killer Williams guy, but if if you had
- 1:24:19Speaker 2: me picked between those three, I'm taking kill Williams every
- 1:24:21Speaker 2: single time, because those guys can't do what he can do.
- 1:24:24Speaker 2: Let's just let's just flat out they they're not on
- 1:24:26Speaker 2: the same level of talent, they're not the same They're
- 1:24:28Speaker 2: sure they're putting up better stats, but let them get
- 1:24:33Speaker 2: sacked nine times, let them get let them get sacked
- 1:24:35Speaker 2: nine times and see what happens in the game and
- 1:24:37Speaker 2: if you watch these football games, They're not escaping the
- 1:24:40Speaker 2: pocket like Kaller Williams does. They're not making some of
- 1:24:41Speaker 2: the throws Kaller Williams does. They're not running the ball
- 1:24:44Speaker 2: like Killabillis Jaden Daniels can. But Killer Williams making it,
- 1:24:48Speaker 2: is doing it when it matters, when when the situation
- 1:24:51Speaker 2: breaks down, when he has to Yeah.
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: Yeah, So I.
- 1:24:57Speaker 2: Just want to say that, you know, he almost brought
- 1:24:59Speaker 2: them back in this one. There's this is what five
- 1:25:01Speaker 2: weeks in a row. Maybe they lose by one score
- 1:25:04Speaker 2: and it comes down to the end, something crazy, missfield goal,
- 1:25:07Speaker 2: of miss time out, just bad situations. It's it's kayl
- 1:25:15Speaker 2: Wwlliams is gonna be good. Let's just say that. I'm
- 1:25:17Speaker 2: just gonna say that Kay Williams will be good. But
- 1:25:19Speaker 2: the Lions, this has to be a scary look. This
- 1:25:21Speaker 2: has to be a scary look for the Lions because
- 1:25:23Speaker 2: they were up big in this one. I thought it
- 1:25:24Speaker 2: was gonna be a runaway game. I think everyone thought
- 1:25:26Speaker 2: it was gonna be a runaway game. You know, it
- 1:25:28Speaker 2: felt like that at the beginning, But then the line,
- 1:25:30Speaker 2: the bear just kept chipping and chipping and chipping into
- 1:25:33Speaker 2: this lead and the Lions that really had no answers
- 1:25:36Speaker 2: to I don't know if they took their foot off
- 1:25:38Speaker 2: the gas. They were comfortable knowing that they thought they
- 1:25:40Speaker 2: would win. But you can't win that way, you know.
- 1:25:43Speaker 2: And it's sure you've been blowing out all these teams,
- 1:25:45Speaker 2: but when it comes to this, you should. You should
- 1:25:47Speaker 2: have blew out this team, but you let them come
- 1:25:49Speaker 2: back into this one. And that's something that they have
- 1:25:50Speaker 2: to get back and really look at in these situations.
- 1:25:53Speaker 2: What are they gonna do? Who are they gonna turn to?
- 1:25:55Speaker 2: And I think sometimes they forget instead of going for
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: the big plays, instead of letting the they run the
- 1:26:02Speaker 2: ball a lot. Yeah, but you got to get the
- 1:26:04Speaker 2: ball to Almoros, same brown and the same reporter. I think.
- 1:26:07Speaker 2: I think there has to be a point where the
- 1:26:09Speaker 2: big plays aren't necessarily what you want. It's it's it's
- 1:26:12Speaker 2: kind of you're going to take the dink and dunks.
- 1:26:14Speaker 2: You want to get to the guys that are always open.
- 1:26:16Speaker 2: And I think Aman and Saliporter have to get more
- 1:26:18Speaker 2: involved for this team to continue to be to be
- 1:26:22Speaker 2: to be consistent.
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: Yeah, I know for sure, and I agree with you
- 1:26:26Speaker 1: as far as with the Caleb Williams take one hundred
- 1:26:28Speaker 1: percent he's had to deal with. I know, people they
- 1:26:31Speaker 1: just look at the box score, Alfred, but my bad
- 1:26:35Speaker 1: at the back cost there. But but yeah, no, Caleb Williams,
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: he's definitely making these plays in by far, He's easily
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: the option for the number one overall pick this year
- 1:26:45Speaker 1: and is shown this year. And I think with Thomas
- 1:26:48Speaker 1: Brown coming in as an intern head coach, you already
- 1:26:51Speaker 1: saw with a new offensive coordinator from these past two weeks,
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: he's looked like a lot better quarterback. And Caleb Williams
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: hasn't thrown a turn over or throwing a pick since
- 1:27:02Speaker 1: Week six and they're only six since that time span.
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: So at the end of the day, it's a collective effort,
- 1:27:09Speaker 1: a team effort in order to win football games. Your
- 1:27:11Speaker 1: quarterback can only do so much. And yeah, after this
- 1:27:15Speaker 1: Lion's performance right here, I'm telling you, I think the
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: Eagles are the best team in the NFC. And yes,
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: the Lions they have everything working out for them. Yes
- 1:27:23Speaker 1: they have the defensive pieces, they have the offensive pieces.
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, I think it
- 1:27:29Speaker 1: just comes down to this. When teams are evenly matched,
- 1:27:33Speaker 1: it comes down to the superstar powers or firepower as
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: far as quarterback wise, and as of right now, Jalen
- 1:27:41Speaker 1: Hurts has more firepower, more upside than what Jared Goff
- 1:27:45Speaker 1: can do. And I know Jared Goff, he could have
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: two incompletions, four hundred yards, four touchdowns, but Jalen Hurts
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: just has that different upside, that rushing ability that Jared
- 1:27:55Speaker 1: Golf just doesn't have. And I know this sounds crazy,
- 1:27:59Speaker 1: but as of this your Montgomery Jamier Gibbs versus Saquon
- 1:28:03Speaker 1: I'm taking. Right now, I'm taking Saquon. Yes, it may
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: be the better one two punch, but as far as
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: the three, yeah, yeah, he's the better of the three.
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: So I would take that. Aj Brown, Devon sa Smith,
- 1:28:14Speaker 1: Dallas Gotter, I take that over Amanrow, Jamis and Williams
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: Sam Laporto. So I it's close, but I would take
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: the Eagles right there. So don't get me wrong. The
- 1:28:23Speaker 1: Lions are still the one of the best teams in
- 1:28:26Speaker 1: the league, but after this week, they're definitely number two
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: for me. So I don't know if you have anything
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: to say about that.
- 1:28:33Speaker 2: No, I disagree, but we can keep it moving. No, No,
- 1:28:37Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not saying you're far fetched. I just
- 1:28:39Speaker 2: think we've seen the Lions wrong. We've seen the Lions
- 1:28:42Speaker 2: of the last two seasons be consistent that. I mean,
- 1:28:45Speaker 2: the only thing that's really hurt them was themselves, So
- 1:28:47Speaker 2: you know, and I think a lot the Eagles collapsed
- 1:28:50Speaker 2: from last year compared I know we're not supposed to
- 1:28:53Speaker 2: this is a new year, but then going into this year,
- 1:28:55Speaker 2: I just think that the way the Lions beat some
- 1:28:57Speaker 2: teams as compared to the way Eagles beat some teams,
- 1:28:59Speaker 2: I'm taking the Lions not over And understand some of
- 1:29:02Speaker 2: these games are rough, but but hey, they they're they're
- 1:29:06Speaker 2: flat out just controlling games every game.
- 1:29:10Speaker 1: Yeah, I know it's true. But all right, Well that
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: pretty much wraps up Week thirteen of the NFL season.
- 1:29:15Speaker 1: Before we get out of here, like we do every
- 1:29:17Speaker 1: single week, so called MVPs of the week, a player
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: that has stood out throughout the week. Josh, who is
- 1:29:23Speaker 1: your so called MVP here?
- 1:29:25Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Russell Wilson this week. That's my
- 1:29:26Speaker 2: so called MVP of the week. Four hundred plus yards,
- 1:29:29Speaker 2: four touchdown, three touchdowns, three touchdowns three four or three
- 1:29:34Speaker 2: three three touchdowns? You know I'm gonna go That's what
- 1:29:36Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with. I think he has the Steelers
- 1:29:38Speaker 2: on track offensively, He's really getting them. All the receivers involved, Mooth, Pickings, Austin,
- 1:29:44Speaker 2: all of them are playing some good roles for this
- 1:29:46Speaker 2: football team, and especially him, I think he has them
- 1:29:50Speaker 2: clicking Without him. I understand Justin Filds was winning games,
- 1:29:53Speaker 2: but there are some games that I think Justin Fields
- 1:29:55Speaker 2: wouldn't be able to close out. If that Russell Wilson
- 1:29:58Speaker 2: can and I and I think that's that's the that's
- 1:30:00Speaker 2: the changing point for this team, and that's why Russell
- 1:30:03Speaker 2: Wilson for me this week, especially after his performance is
- 1:30:05Speaker 2: so called MVP of the week.
- 1:30:07Speaker 1: Yeah, well mine is gonna be Bucky Irvin. One hundred

- 1:30:13Speaker 1: averaging six point six yards every time he touched the ball,
- 1:30:17Speaker 1: and bro was just completely dominant. Won me a couple
- 1:30:19Speaker 1: of fantasy football leagues here, one of them against Josh
- 1:30:22Speaker 1: actually a close second, though a close second just because
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: storyline was Jerry Judy nine for two thirty five.
