Transcript
- 0:04Speaker 1: NFL Game Deview is a production of the NFL in
- 0:06Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Everybody, Welcome to game debut.
- 0:13Speaker 3: Patrick Claibn back here with Greg Rosenthal and Cynthia Freeland
- 0:16Speaker 3: here to get you set for an exciting Week seven
- 0:18Speaker 3: where we didn't have as many upsets last week, so
- 0:21Speaker 3: everything looked pretty good.
- 0:22Speaker 4: Greck the biggest upset here is though.
- 0:24Speaker 5: Patrick continues to lead in the standings, and frankly, Cythy,
- 0:27Speaker 5: I think it's about time.
- 0:28Speaker 4: You know what I mean. He's been on the show
- 0:30Speaker 4: a while. Let's start pulling your weight. Patrick, I win one.
- 0:33Speaker 3: Calling them sneak disses doesn't necessarily provide the full credit.
- 0:37Speaker 3: Let's let's take a look at the standings. Since Greg's
- 0:39Speaker 3: so excited about the universe, preferred a little chalk. Cynthia
- 0:43Speaker 3: is nipping at my heels after sacrificing the Lions against
- 0:46Speaker 3: the Chiefs.
- 0:47Speaker 2: But I will keep the crown for now.
- 0:50Speaker 4: At fifty six, I think it's your time.
- 0:52Speaker 3: We'll see tough to celebrate, but everybody's so happy about it.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Let's saw some ball.
- 0:58Speaker 3: Two years ago the Lions knocked off the Bucks out
- 1:00Speaker 3: of the playoffs. Then last year in Week two, Baker
- 1:02Speaker 3: Mayfield squad Winter Detroit.
- 1:04Speaker 2: It got some revenge. They won twenty to sixteen.
- 1:06Speaker 3: Baker finished with one hundred and eighty five yards, a
- 1:08Speaker 3: passing TD, a very nice rushing touchdown, and Jared Golf
- 1:13Speaker 3: had a game he'd like to forget, throwing no touchdowns,
- 1:15Speaker 3: had two picks in that game. So let's discuss this
- 1:19Speaker 3: big rematch Sunday night in the Motor City. Baker is
- 1:22Speaker 3: getting MVP chants at home. The Lion's coming off a
- 1:25Speaker 3: loss to those Chiefs. How does this one go?
- 1:27Speaker 6: Cynthia, I have a three point win in a high
- 1:29Speaker 6: scoring affair for the Lions twenty eight to twenty five.
- 1:33Speaker 7: I cried at that playoff game. Yeah, with the Lions one.
- 1:36Speaker 7: I mean big Lions beat the Bucks and I was crying.
- 1:39Speaker 7: It was good.
- 1:40Speaker 6: But a'm wan Rossaint Brown is a huge difference maker
- 1:43Speaker 6: in this one. Last week we saw some things we
- 1:45Speaker 6: don't usually see, which is, you know, not a connection
- 1:47Speaker 6: between he and Jared Goff.
- 1:49Speaker 7: Why does Jared Goff have the.
- 1:51Speaker 6: Best completion percentage in the league in large part due
- 1:53Speaker 6: to this guy.
- 1:55Speaker 7: He's so reliable.
- 1:56Speaker 6: I think sometimes we don't talk about him enough amongst
- 1:59Speaker 6: the top wide receivers in the league. I know I'm
- 2:02Speaker 6: from mid Michigan, so maybe I mentioned we see a
- 2:05Speaker 6: lot more of Amine Ross Aid Brown, but overall, in general,
- 2:08Speaker 6: he doesn't get the kind of same talk as like
- 2:10Speaker 6: a Justin Jefferson or but he's a huge difference maker
- 2:13Speaker 6: and in this game he will be the difference maker.
- 2:15Speaker 3: Yeah, you subtract one from both sides of your score
- 2:18Speaker 3: and you get my score. Cynthia, I've got a twenty
- 2:20Speaker 3: seven to twenty four because although it's like the Lions
- 2:24Speaker 3: are kind of alternating which position group is hurt at
- 2:27Speaker 3: the moment, they do have Aiden Hutchinson back at Allie
- 2:30Speaker 3: McNeil gonna play. I won't say what Dan Campbell said
- 2:33Speaker 3: because he was more emphatic about.
- 2:35Speaker 4: McNeil playag Neavitt, but I think they get.
- 2:38Speaker 3: A matchup of Hutchinson with Charlie Heck and kind of
- 2:41Speaker 3: leave Tristan Wurf's alone here. Heck is giving up the
- 2:44Speaker 3: second highest pressure rate among right tackles, while Hutchinson has
- 2:47Speaker 3: the second most pressers in the entire league.
- 2:50Speaker 2: I enjoy the Lions front seven. I think I like
- 2:53Speaker 2: the fact that they're at home and this one.
- 2:54Speaker 5: So roar, Greg, Yes, roar, and you can put the
- 2:57Speaker 5: Lions graphic all across the bottom. You can meme us away.
- 3:01Speaker 5: But you can also watch this show of few different ways.
- 3:05Speaker 5: You can also look at that number minus five and
- 3:07Speaker 5: a half and notice all three of us are actually
- 3:09Speaker 5: on the Bucks side of things here. I think it's
- 3:11Speaker 5: a one point game. I'm tempted to take the Bucks
- 3:14Speaker 5: because of Vita Vea and this defense for Tampa Bay.
- 3:17Speaker 5: First of all, they stopped the run great. But even
- 3:20Speaker 5: when Vidavea is rushing the passer.
- 3:22Speaker 4: You can put two guys on them.
- 3:24Speaker 5: It's a new fangled interior offensive line for the Lions.
- 3:27Speaker 4: Two guys is not enough for Vidavea.
- 3:29Speaker 5: He has faced the third most amount of double teams
- 3:32Speaker 5: in the entire NFL this year. He leads the NFL
- 3:36Speaker 5: in pressures when he is double team five pressures last
- 3:39Speaker 5: week alone. While you're putting two men on this mountain
- 3:43Speaker 5: of a man, and there's a lot of injuries for
- 3:45Speaker 5: the Lions in the secondary. We don't know about their
- 3:48Speaker 5: offensive line either. I might flip my pick, but either way,
- 3:51Speaker 5: five and a half points is disrespectful. I don't like it.
- 3:54Speaker 5: I think this is a close game, and the Bucks
- 3:56Speaker 5: keep it close.
- 3:57Speaker 3: At the very least, vidavea feeling young in Spry had
- 3:59Speaker 3: a roughing the kicker last week because he's just trying
- 4:01Speaker 3: to get out there and move around. Speaking of being
- 4:03Speaker 3: low stop for Who's Eating Good presented by Applebee's, Baker
- 4:07Speaker 3: Mayfield has been ball in Cynthia. Willie pass for more
- 4:10Speaker 3: or less than two hundred and forty four yards against
- 4:13Speaker 3: the Lions.
- 4:13Speaker 6: Heck yeah, he'll pass for more than that number, in
- 4:16Speaker 6: large part because who's playing in the secondary for the Lions.
- 4:21Speaker 7: I don't know. We'll sign someone off the practice squad and.
- 4:23Speaker 4: Not you dared, Nope, not Brian Brandton, No Bended.
- 4:26Speaker 7: Not Terry on Arnold, and Kirby Joseph doesn't look one
- 4:29Speaker 7: hundred percent. So things look great.
- 4:31Speaker 6: For the Lions secondary. It's all gonna be okay. I'm
- 4:34Speaker 6: gonna be just fine. But no, Baker Mayfield has had
- 4:36Speaker 6: a great season. He's dealing with a banged up wide
- 4:39Speaker 6: receiving corps. But I still think that number goes higher,
- 4:41Speaker 6: especially because I have such a high scoring game forecast.
- 4:44Speaker 6: You don't get to a high scoring game without throwing
- 4:46Speaker 6: for a lot of pass years.
- 4:47Speaker 3: And we'll go from the NFC solves best quarterback at
- 4:49Speaker 3: the moment to a guy who might be one of
- 4:51Speaker 3: the league candidates for Offensive Player.
- 4:52Speaker 2: Of the Year in the division. But Jehan Robinson electric
- 4:55Speaker 2: right now, Buffalo A's another man to the front.
- 4:58Speaker 3: They're going to hand to Robinson right side through the
- 5:00Speaker 3: first wall, around the corner.
- 5:02Speaker 4: Here goes Pshon. Robinson keeps his.
- 5:05Speaker 8: Feet thirty twenty five, twenty ten.
- 5:08Speaker 2: Five touchdown Atlanta.
- 5:11Speaker 9: Oh my goodness, the math on this one is easy.
- 5:17Speaker 2: Eighty one to the house.
- 5:21Speaker 3: Bijon and the Falcons coming off a huge win over
- 5:23Speaker 3: the Bills. They've got the forty nine ers on Sunday night,
- 5:26Speaker 3: brought party's status still uncertain. George Kittle expected to be
- 5:29Speaker 3: back for this one. How does the matchup look at
- 5:31Speaker 3: the moment to you, Cynthia.
- 5:32Speaker 6: Well, let's go back to Baijon there for a second,
- 5:34Speaker 6: because in an alternate universe, I think he's still running
- 5:37Speaker 6: all over the Bills. But Atlanta wins this one twenty
- 5:39Speaker 6: three to twenty one because of the matchup missing matchup
- 5:42Speaker 6: aspects between Bajon and no Fred Warner. The massive sized
- 5:47Speaker 6: hole that's left when Fred Warner is not on the field,
- 5:50Speaker 6: results in oh rushing yards increasing by about one per play,
- 5:54Speaker 6: maybe even more. And same thing with in the past
- 5:56Speaker 6: catching game as well.
- 5:57Speaker 7: So I'm pouring a little one out for Fred Warner.
- 5:59Speaker 7: He is a real one. He is the best linebacker
- 6:02Speaker 7: that we are seeing. It's not even close in the league.
- 6:04Speaker 7: And without him.
- 6:05Speaker 6: Jon Robinson, by the way, JONN Robinson did a bunch
- 6:08Speaker 6: of charity for kids where he brought a who bunch
- 6:10Speaker 6: of books. He just gave a ton of books to kids.
- 6:12Speaker 6: So you like kids reading and.
- 6:15Speaker 7: You're great football. I mean wins all around here.
- 6:17Speaker 2: Folks, full on renaissance man.
- 6:19Speaker 3: He was starting in Netflix programs as they had an
- 6:24Speaker 3: opportunity there.
- 6:24Speaker 2: He was on NFL Daily with Greg rosenba Gas exactly
- 6:28Speaker 2: and everything.
- 6:29Speaker 3: I've got the Falcons by four, twenty four to twenty
- 6:31Speaker 3: and that's all that they have to do with the
- 6:33Speaker 3: number four because Jeff Olbrich he went down to Georgia
- 6:36Speaker 3: and he is sending people, he is sending them flying
- 6:38Speaker 3: at the quarterback. He blitzed Josh Allen more in a
- 6:40Speaker 3: game than he has been since twenty twenty one. They
- 6:43Speaker 3: have a blitz rate this season of forty eight point seven.
- 6:46Speaker 3: The next highest team is not even in the forties.
- 6:48Speaker 3: There are eleven point hires in the next closest team.
- 6:50Speaker 3: If you're looking for a comp they're just behind the
- 6:53Speaker 3: twenty twenty three Vikings in terms of blitz rate.
- 6:56Speaker 2: The Niners ground game is what it once was. Greg,
- 6:59Speaker 2: I'm concerned. I've got the Birds by four.
- 7:01Speaker 5: I am concerned because of all the injuries. But sometimes
- 7:04Speaker 5: get good injury news, and you get that with George Kittle.
- 7:06Speaker 5: I got the forty nine Ers winning. I got a just, Greg,
- 7:08Speaker 5: here's a number for you, just Greg, seven to four
- 7:11Speaker 5: on the season, and you're giving me a home favorite.
- 7:14Speaker 5: Kyle Sanahan gets it done. George Kittle is so massive
- 7:18Speaker 5: for this team. He's a He has a multiplying effect.
- 7:22Speaker 5: He is like the Patrick Claybahn of the forty nine Ers. Zach,
- 7:25Speaker 5: you put him on the field, Suddenly Christian McCaffrey's better.
- 7:29Speaker 4: So you put Patrick in the show. Suddenly I'm better.
- 7:31Speaker 7: Cynthia is better, exactly.
- 7:33Speaker 5: Kittle opens things up for Kendrick Bourdon, who already might
- 7:36Speaker 5: be the best wide receiver in the entire NFL. He's
- 7:39Speaker 5: only gonna get better. I don't care who's that quarterback
- 7:41Speaker 5: for the forty nine ers. I trust them bouncing back
- 7:44Speaker 5: against the Falcons.
- 7:45Speaker 3: You owe George Kittle a huge apology. Nobody wants to
- 7:48Speaker 3: be compared to me.
- 7:49Speaker 4: Stop at all, versat all, run and pass game.
- 7:51Speaker 3: Our next matchup features two of the top teams in
- 7:54Speaker 3: the NFL, scoring off at Wimbley's Stadium in London.
- 7:58Speaker 2: London's calling at time, play for the man next. You
- 8:01Speaker 2: numb just game sixty minutes. I wasn't dumb, Stafford, He's.
- 8:05Speaker 8: Hitched the bucket to cut down.
- 8:08Speaker 4: That was a dot up.
- 8:12Speaker 8: Shout down. Indian Sela tucks down.
- 8:22Speaker 2: Jackson away. We'll see you in welly Low.
- 8:29Speaker 4: Snooze off.
- 8:30Speaker 3: Game on Sunday Morning football continues in London, presented by
- 8:33Speaker 3: net app Matthew Stafford and the Rams versus Trevor Lawrence
- 8:37Speaker 3: and the Jags Sunday nine thirty am Eastern only on
- 8:40Speaker 3: NFL Network, Also streaming with the NFL Plus pscription. With
- 8:43Speaker 3: larger NFL Plus visit plus dot NFL dot com for
- 8:47Speaker 3: turn Rams and Jags, both sitting at four and two LA,
- 8:51Speaker 3: likely without Pookaakua, who's walking away with their fifth win
- 8:54Speaker 3: of the season in this one, Greg.
- 8:56Speaker 5: I gotta admit I don't know. I mean, I never know,
- 8:58Speaker 5: but this game, I really don't know. I'm taking the Rams.
- 9:02Speaker 5: I like both of those teams. I think it's very
- 9:04Speaker 5: evenly matched, but I'm really curious to see how DeVante
- 9:07Speaker 5: Adams does here as the number one receiver. So it
- 9:11Speaker 5: hasn't all been efficient to DeVante Adams this season. You're
- 9:15Speaker 5: seeing a successful red zone play to Devonte Adams, but
- 9:19Speaker 5: actually in contested catch situations and in general for this
- 9:22Speaker 5: team in the red zone, it's been a little sporadic.
- 9:25Speaker 4: To my eyes, he looks.
- 9:27Speaker 5: Like the old DeVante Adams, but they haven't totally been
- 9:29Speaker 5: in six. Now, you have a week where you're preparing
- 9:31Speaker 5: for a Jaguars defense that just traded for Greg Newsom,
- 9:35Speaker 5: who gave up a big play a week ago, and
- 9:38Speaker 5: you know that Pukaiku.
- 9:39Speaker 4: Is not going to be out on the field.
- 9:40Speaker 5: I trust Sean McVay to come up with a game
- 9:43Speaker 5: plan to get this connection looking like this.
- 9:45Speaker 4: We're seeing all the best plays.
- 9:47Speaker 5: It's just been a little up and down, and I
- 9:49Speaker 5: think this week they get it straightened out.
- 9:50Speaker 3: I've got a similar score to you, Greg, I've got
- 9:52Speaker 3: a Rams win by three twenty three.
- 9:54Speaker 2: To twenty.
- 9:55Speaker 3: Injuries playing a role in my decision, more so for
- 9:57Speaker 3: the Jags, as Greg Lloyd is out for this game.
- 10:00Speaker 3: But the Rams, they have their tackling machine Date Lambman
- 10:04Speaker 3: occupying territory overseas now seventeen tackles a week ago, seven
- 10:09Speaker 3: run stops on a team where the pass rushers sometimes are.
- 10:13Speaker 2: Really concerned about rushing the past and not really doing
- 10:15Speaker 2: a whole.
- 10:15Speaker 3: Lot else Landman is key, and I think the Jags
- 10:19Speaker 3: really really missed Devin Lloyd. Tough to overstate the issue there.
- 10:23Speaker 3: So twenty three to twenty Rams win.
- 10:25Speaker 6: For me simply, Well, I guess I'm on an island here,
- 10:28Speaker 6: but I am as a prime number. But here I
- 10:31Speaker 6: have the Jags winning this one twenty two to twenty one.
- 10:35Speaker 6: I want to show you something that happened last week.
- 10:37Speaker 6: You may have missed it because it wasn't something that
- 10:39Speaker 6: we saw a lot of, But there is Do you
- 10:42Speaker 6: remember Brian Thomas Junior. I know he's not a milk carton,
- 10:45Speaker 6: but there he is. And look at that yes in
- 10:48Speaker 6: the end zone. Now am I going to say that?
- 10:51Speaker 6: I love the opportunity for Trevor Lawnce to really have
- 10:54Speaker 6: just a bang up passing day against this Rams front. Now,
- 10:58Speaker 6: I'm not going to go that far, but I think
- 11:00Speaker 6: that just enough push with Brian Thomas Junior stretching the
- 11:03Speaker 6: field and then of wor how effective the run game
- 11:06Speaker 6: has been, will help them overcome an O line that
- 11:08Speaker 6: I don't know if they're as great as they were
- 11:10Speaker 6: in the beginning of the season, but I don't think
- 11:11Speaker 6: they're as bad as they've looked kind of in the
- 11:13Speaker 6: past two or three games. But I think that they're
- 11:16Speaker 6: somewhere in between. But again, Brian Thamas, you just just
- 11:19Speaker 6: a little bit of stretching the field that matters.
- 11:21Speaker 4: And I know you like numbers.
- 11:23Speaker 7: I do like numbers eight and three.
- 11:25Speaker 4: When Cynthia is on her island.
- 11:27Speaker 2: It's pretty good lace to be. Cynthia's on an island.
- 11:29Speaker 2: The game is all. Oh my, it all starts.
- 11:32Speaker 7: Cynthia was on that island last week. Oh Mike, it's
- 11:34Speaker 7: all coming back.
- 11:35Speaker 3: It's Son for Sees the season presented by Caesar's Sportsbook
- 11:38Speaker 3: as we take a look at the first touchdown score
- 11:42Speaker 3: odds according to our friends over at Caesar's between the
- 11:44Speaker 3: Vikings and the Eagles, Jordan Mason and Saquon Barkley leading
- 11:48Speaker 3: the way, with Jalen Hurts and Justin Jefferson significantly behind.
- 11:52Speaker 3: All those guys, we get a lot of touchdowns on
- 11:55Speaker 3: the ground. Let's discuss this game a bit more. The
- 11:57Speaker 3: Vikings are coming off to buy the Eagles coming off
- 12:00Speaker 3: of two straight losses. Does Philly skid?
- 12:03Speaker 2: And here, Cynthia, I don't know about.
- 12:06Speaker 7: I don't think it's a skid. But it's a one
- 12:07Speaker 7: point win.
- 12:08Speaker 6: So I know Philadelphia fans and it could be like
- 12:10Speaker 6: a fifty point win. I don't know if they'll be
- 12:12Speaker 6: happy yet. Twenty four to twenty three is my score.
- 12:14Speaker 6: But I want to talk about Saquon Barkley because probably
- 12:17Speaker 6: the most popular guy in Philadelphia right now, Kevin Botulo,
- 12:20Speaker 6: he said he wanted to add to the run game.
- 12:23Speaker 7: He wants to run the ball more.
- 12:24Speaker 6: Saquon Barkley has not had anywhere near the yardage efficiency, usage,
- 12:29Speaker 6: yards before contact, all the things we saw last season.
- 12:32Speaker 6: Perhaps the offense has gotten a bit vanilla. I'm not
- 12:34Speaker 6: going to opine on that. What I will say is
- 12:37Speaker 6: that in this matchup, look for things that are good
- 12:41Speaker 6: at beating Blitz's beating pressures. Perhaps some screen passes, perhaps
- 12:44Speaker 6: some things where you're shifting, you know, to one side
- 12:47Speaker 6: and have a convoy of people that Saquon Barkley could
- 12:50Speaker 6: fall do some things that are a bit I don't
- 12:53Speaker 6: want to call them simple, but easier things that we
- 12:55Speaker 6: know that this offensive line can do, we know saque
- 12:58Speaker 6: can do to get him more volume. I think this
- 13:01Speaker 6: is a big bounce back spot for Saquon Barkley, and
- 13:03Speaker 6: maybe then Eagles fans will stop like hating on Kevin.
- 13:07Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 13:08Speaker 7: I think they just like doing it. I don't know.
- 13:10Speaker 3: I've got an Eagles win as well, Cynthia. I've got
- 13:12Speaker 3: twenty five to twenty one, with the offense looking a
- 13:15Speaker 3: little bit better and as Cynthia pointed out, maybe not
- 13:18Speaker 3: as vanility. You know, the conversation this week wasn't about
- 13:21Speaker 3: like Bible quotes on Twitter. It was from Lane Johnson
- 13:25Speaker 3: saying the offense was predictable. Kevin Patulo had responses to that.
- 13:29Speaker 3: So let's talk about the most predictable thing that they do.
- 13:32Speaker 3: Shove the ball across the line. They did it on consecutive,
- 13:36Speaker 3: multiple consecutive plays in the loss. There it is against
- 13:40Speaker 3: the Giants where they need to do They're very successful
- 13:44Speaker 3: obviously at the Brotherly Shove and in a lot of
- 13:47Speaker 3: other plays. But yeah, the offense has become very, very predictable.
- 13:52Speaker 3: Perhaps an opportunity to mix things up in this Carson
- 13:55Speaker 3: Wentz potential revenge game, Greg that I don't think he gets.
- 13:58Speaker 5: I agree with both of you and appreciate your points
- 14:01Speaker 5: so much that I'm just going to put the Eagles
- 14:03Speaker 5: score up there.
- 14:04Speaker 4: I think they'll win.
- 14:05Speaker 5: It's really more about the Vikings defense not being as trustworthy.
- 14:09Speaker 5: And I'll take it to Carson Wentz and take you
- 14:11Speaker 5: back all the way to twenty seventeen. And this is
- 14:14Speaker 5: a picture I actually took on the way into the
- 14:16Speaker 5: divisional round. They were making big rigs of Weensylvania. And
- 14:21Speaker 5: I think right now people think about Carson Wentz in
- 14:24Speaker 5: Philadelphia and.
- 14:25Speaker 4: They like, think of the bad things. Oh, he wasn't
- 14:27Speaker 4: great in the locker room or whatever.
- 14:29Speaker 5: They had never won the Super Bowl in their entire
- 14:32Speaker 5: history as a franchise. What if I told you there's
- 14:34Speaker 5: no freaking chance they would have ever won the Super
- 14:37Speaker 5: Bowl if not for Carson Wentz. He got them out
- 14:40Speaker 5: to an eleven and two start that year. He was
- 14:42Speaker 5: the number one quarterback in the league in QBR that year.
- 14:46Speaker 5: He actually got third place in the MVP votes that
- 14:49Speaker 5: year for.
- 14:50Speaker 4: The Philadelphia Eagles.
- 14:51Speaker 5: That's how good he was, setting up a number one
- 14:53Speaker 5: seed where they just barely won in that divisional round game,
- 14:58Speaker 5: helped out by the home field that.
- 14:59Speaker 4: Carson Wentz got them.
- 15:00Speaker 5: So a little appreciation for Carson, wasn't it Nick Foles?
- 15:04Speaker 5: I mean, of course Nick Foles got it, But it's
- 15:06Speaker 5: a team sport.
- 15:07Speaker 4: Everyone helped out.
- 15:08Speaker 3: A rising tide lifting all the boat. Then how about
- 15:10Speaker 3: that Greg going in big for Carson Wentz. Yeah, big

- 15:27Speaker 3: stay in the NFC East. Jayden Daniels and Dak Prescott
- 15:30Speaker 3: set the square off this week. Take a look at
- 15:31Speaker 3: their numbers from them last week when they the fans
- 15:35Speaker 3: of QB wins out there. They both did not get that,
- 15:38Speaker 3: but look at the numbers. Two hundred eleven passyards for
- 15:41Speaker 3: Jaydon Daniels. Of course, there was the brutal fumble but
- 15:43Speaker 3: three touchdown passes, one hundred and nineteen passer rating, and yeah,
- 15:47Speaker 3: once again, Dak Prescott did almost everything he could, but
- 15:50Speaker 3: it wasn't enough with the Cowboys defense on the other side.
- 15:53Speaker 3: It's time for the Reid presented by Microsoft co Pilot.
- 15:56Speaker 3: Microsoft Copilot, your AI companion for NFL Game Day and
- 15:59Speaker 3: every day. We asked Copilot to give us the top
- 16:02Speaker 3: three matchups to watch in this NFC showcase.
- 16:05Speaker 2: Jayden's saying upright up a rough.
- 16:06Speaker 3: Game last week, Javonte Williams bouncing back after his worst
- 16:09Speaker 3: game of the year, and the turnover battle.
- 16:11Speaker 2: Being things that we should keep on an eye on.
- 16:16Speaker 3: Let's break down this matchup between the division rivals. There's
- 16:19Speaker 3: a chance both Terry McLain and Cde Lamb play on Sunday.
- 16:23Speaker 2: Who gets a win?
- 16:23Speaker 4: Greg, I have the commanders.
- 16:25Speaker 5: I think they're better overall, and the quarterbacks might be
- 16:28Speaker 5: very even. But Jayden Daniels is getting closer to that
- 16:31Speaker 5: Dak Prescott level because of his scrambling ability.
- 16:35Speaker 4: You saw it.
- 16:35Speaker 5: He's still wearing that knee brace in Chicago, but I
- 16:38Speaker 5: thought he had the juice back in his legs after
- 16:41Speaker 5: a couple of days where he was quiet on the ground.
- 16:44Speaker 5: You could not catch up to Jadon Daniels. It was
- 16:46Speaker 5: like an automatic first down when he decided to scramble
- 16:49Speaker 5: in this game. And that's the X factor because I
- 16:52Speaker 5: think the Bears had a good game plan for the
- 16:54Speaker 5: Commanders in terms of being able to stop the run
- 16:56Speaker 5: and loading the box, and yet the Cowboys defense is
- 17:00Speaker 5: so inflexible. They don't play much man coverage, they don't
- 17:03Speaker 5: really stop the run very well. That I think the
- 17:06Speaker 5: Commanders will be able to get some design runs and
- 17:09Speaker 5: then they'll also count on Jaden Daniels in his scrambling ability.
- 17:12Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm going to build off of that.
- 17:14Speaker 6: I have a Washington win as well, but I have
- 17:16Speaker 6: one point right now, twenty nine to twenty eight. Why
- 17:19Speaker 6: because all of those injury news pieces, I don't know
- 17:23Speaker 6: exactly who's all playing. So if everyone plays, it's going
- 17:26Speaker 6: to be more convincing win for Washington.
- 17:28Speaker 7: As of right now, I don't really know.
- 17:31Speaker 6: But ultimately the thing that decides this one is the
- 17:34Speaker 6: ability of the run game to have a little bit
- 17:36Speaker 6: more time and not have mess ups. Look at this
- 17:39Speaker 6: mess up. Look at the mechanics of this mess up.
- 17:41Speaker 6: Does that happen very often. No, that's called bad luck.
- 17:43Speaker 6: The Bears their defense is gotten healthier, they've gotten better.
- 17:47Speaker 7: Now do they have Does this happen very often?
- 17:50Speaker 6: No? You know why it doesn't happen because they're professionals.
- 17:52Speaker 6: Look at the weather, look at the situation. But I'm
- 17:55Speaker 6: just saying that it's just bad luck. That is truly
- 17:57Speaker 6: just bad luck. That's not bad play. Sure, it's great
- 18:00Speaker 6: for the Bears to be able to recover it, but
- 18:02Speaker 6: they're not going to be in that situate.
- 18:03Speaker 7: There's a lot of zone defense, a lot.
- 18:04Speaker 6: More space that they'll be working with against this Dallas defense.
- 18:08Speaker 7: So scrips happened.
- 18:10Speaker 6: Remember that when a cat like that can hang in there,
- 18:12Speaker 6: That's what I just saw with that thing that that
- 18:14Speaker 6: kitten poster.
- 18:15Speaker 2: You know what we're talking about.
- 18:16Speaker 7: Yeah, okay, good, just making sure hang in.
- 18:18Speaker 2: There because that's what the commanders are going to be
- 18:20Speaker 2: able to do.
- 18:20Speaker 3: Is Cynthia pointed out, it's going to be a nice,
- 18:22Speaker 3: comfortable seventy one degrees inside of Att Stadium actually to
- 18:26Speaker 3: be concerned about. We are all on the Washington commanders
- 18:29Speaker 3: right here as Yeah, we all have big scores because
- 18:32Speaker 3: we're looking over at that Dallas Cowboys defense where things
- 18:36Speaker 3: have not necessarily been great. Check out some debo Samuel
- 18:40Speaker 3: hopefully he plays, Hopefully Terry McLaurin is able to play.
- 18:44Speaker 3: But Devo's getting right now twenty percent of the team's
- 18:47Speaker 3: air yards against.
- 18:48Speaker 2: The Dallas defense. That on fifty seven.
- 18:51Speaker 3: Percent of passes, the receiver has more than three yards
- 18:54Speaker 3: of separation.
- 18:55Speaker 2: It's the worst rate.
- 18:57Speaker 3: In twenty twenty five. So yeah, we're all taking the
- 18:59Speaker 3: Commanders in. It's score fest, but we're still taking Washington
- 19:04Speaker 3: out to the left hand, off scouta boot into the
- 19:07Speaker 3: line for the goal line, no signal yet.
- 19:11Speaker 8: And touchdown Giants. Scottaboo's third rushing touch down to the
- 19:16Speaker 8: ball game. Oh he doesn't backflip, and now the Giants
- 19:23Speaker 8: lead at thirty three seventeen.
- 19:31Speaker 2: You get the home.
- 19:33Speaker 4: Yeah, I.
- 19:44Speaker 7: Think we need I think we need a Scattaboo chit.
- 19:48Speaker 9: Scaner boot Scott Boom, scot out boot Stetta go.
- 19:56Speaker 3: You either see yourself become a meme or just become
- 19:58Speaker 3: a meme and embrace it.
- 19:59Speaker 2: The g Men shocked Philly last week. Now they've got
- 20:02Speaker 2: a tough Bronco Semuel Jackson dar pull off another upset.
- 20:05Speaker 5: Greg I didn't quite have the guts to pull off
- 20:08Speaker 5: the upset, but I do think they keep this game
- 20:10Speaker 5: close because of Jackson Dart and his rushing ability. So
- 20:13Speaker 5: just a three point win for Denver. I know they're
- 20:15Speaker 5: favored by a touchdown. I love that for the Giants.
- 20:18Speaker 5: Jackson Dart has such a wild profile right now. He
- 20:21Speaker 5: throws the ball deep almost more than any quarterback in
- 20:24Speaker 5: the league, and it's not effective. He runs the ball
- 20:28Speaker 5: more than any quarterback in the league and it is
- 20:30Speaker 5: quite effective.
- 20:31Speaker 4: So the highest rate.
- 20:32Speaker 5: Of design runs of any quarterback in the entire NFL,
- 20:36Speaker 5: and it's been very successful. Also second in terms of
- 20:40Speaker 5: scramble range. So when the first read or the second
- 20:43Speaker 5: read is not there, you run. And I think the
- 20:45Speaker 5: way to beat this Broncos defense is to run. And
- 20:48Speaker 5: so I think the Giants can keep the game close
- 20:51Speaker 5: with a little Dart, little skataboo on the ground, and
- 20:53Speaker 5: they at least don't lose by seven.
- 20:56Speaker 7: I kind of disagree.
- 20:57Speaker 6: I have an eight point win for the Broncos twenty
- 21:00Speaker 6: five to seventeen. I want to talk about this Broncos
- 21:02Speaker 6: defense because I'm looking at what is the formula to
- 21:06Speaker 6: make life so hard on a rookie quarterback. It comes
- 21:09Speaker 6: in the form of Nick Benito coming for your life.
- 21:13Speaker 7: Go ahead, what were you to say?
- 21:14Speaker 5: He just he just talked a little trash too to
- 21:17Speaker 5: the Giants fan base, showing them delusional on Twitter.
- 21:21Speaker 6: If I had to run and hit people for a
- 21:23Speaker 6: living living, I would think their fans were delusional as well,
- 21:25Speaker 6: if they thought they could beat me.
- 21:27Speaker 4: Think about it.
- 21:27Speaker 6: You have to have that mentality if that is your
- 21:30Speaker 6: line of work, it only seems right. But it's not
- 21:33Speaker 6: just Nick Bonito. Is this whole defense together. They have
- 21:36Speaker 6: the highest pressure rate, And if you look at what
- 21:38Speaker 6: happens in coverage, I mean, is Malik Neighbors walking through
- 21:41Speaker 6: that door? I don't think so, So ultimately it's not.
- 21:44Speaker 6: And I love the Jackson dart Woman. I love the
- 21:47Speaker 6: cam Scataby moment. Love it's very fun, Like I love
- 21:49Speaker 6: a good meathead moment for sure. But I think in
- 21:52Speaker 6: this matchup, it's going to come down to the entire
- 21:55Speaker 6: eleven players on that defense being just way, way, way
- 22:00Speaker 6: too difficult to overcome.
- 22:01Speaker 5: Benito leads the league in sacks, but you can add
- 22:03Speaker 5: two more to the totally sacked me earlier this season
- 22:05Speaker 5: and now the Giants fan base.
- 22:07Speaker 2: And again he's by a couple. He's responding to particular
- 22:09Speaker 2: aspects within the Giants fan base. He's not taking shots
- 22:12Speaker 2: at the entire fan base.
- 22:14Speaker 3: Like people might say I when I've got an eleven
- 22:16Speaker 3: point win froms in this one. Because the defense has
- 22:20Speaker 3: been incredible. The reigning defensive Player of the Year might
- 22:23Speaker 3: not have a lot to do in this game, because
- 22:26Speaker 3: Cynthia points out NOMA League neighbors have got injuries to the.
- 22:28Speaker 2: Other pass caackers. But let's discuss Patrick soon. Tan. They're
- 22:32Speaker 2: playing more man than anyone else.
- 22:34Speaker 3: They're allowing four point eight yards per play right now, and.
- 22:38Speaker 2: In this matchup, Yeah, paying attention.
- 22:40Speaker 3: To the rbos getting to Jackson Dark after they try
- 22:44Speaker 3: to block up that first ruad to keep them from
- 22:45Speaker 3: running the ball.
- 22:46Speaker 2: I think it's a pretty convincing Broncos win.
- 22:49Speaker 3: So, like Cynthia, I passionately disagree with Greg Rosenthalt. This
- 22:52Speaker 3: game expected to be one of the lowest scoring of
- 22:54Speaker 3: the week. Let's check out the rest right there at
- 22:57Speaker 3: the top. It's the Dolphins and the Browns looking at
- 22:59Speaker 3: thirty seven and a half at the total.
- 23:02Speaker 6: Texas Weather's going to be an issue, yes, in Cleveland.
- 23:06Speaker 3: Just so you know, pay attention to the forecast, folks
- 23:09Speaker 3: as we get to the two minute drill presented by
- 23:11Speaker 3: the Wells Fargo Active Cash credit card. Allow us to
- 23:14Speaker 3: make some quick picks and honor that active cash credit card.
- 23:17Speaker 3: The Raiders and Chiefs at Arrowhead, Mahomes and Casey have
- 23:20Speaker 3: won three of the last four. Do they keep it
- 23:22Speaker 3: rolling like the Raiders took that bus rolling around?
- 23:25Speaker 5: Absolutely, they do, and they get over that big old
- 23:27Speaker 5: number thirty one to seventeen. Oh, we're back to an
- 23:30Speaker 5: old school Chiefs team where they are a top five
- 23:32Speaker 5: offense and a good enough defense. You replace Juju Smith
- 23:36Speaker 5: Schuster in about forty five TOI snaps with Rashi Rice
- 23:40Speaker 5: on the field in.
- 23:40Speaker 4: That same role.
- 23:41Speaker 5: You get faster, you get more productive. You do not
- 23:44Speaker 5: have the horses at linebacker, safety or cornerback to keep
- 23:48Speaker 5: up with the Speedsters. And the Chiefs. Make the Chiefs
- 23:51Speaker 5: fun again.
- 23:52Speaker 4: It's happened.
- 23:53Speaker 2: It has.
- 23:54Speaker 3: Speaking of fun, the Saints and the Bears, it's a Dennis.
- 23:57Speaker 2: Allen revenge game.
- 23:58Speaker 3: Does Chicago make it four wins in a rows into.
- 24:02Speaker 7: You by three points twenty four to twenty one.
- 24:04Speaker 6: Look out for a massive Romo Donsay game in this one,
- 24:08Speaker 6: when I'm looking at what could the formula be, Well,
- 24:10Speaker 6: it is Romo Dounzay.
- 24:11Speaker 7: On third down, it is Romo Dounzay. Oh, I don't know.
- 24:14Speaker 6: Whenever his quarterback gets into trouble, who's he looking for?
- 24:18Speaker 6: Call Williams safety blanket. Sometimes we're saying the Tarta ends
- 24:21Speaker 6: the quarterbacks. No, No, it's Romo Dunza and it's not even close.
- 24:25Speaker 2: Let's go to the.
- 24:25Speaker 3: Packers and the Cardinals in the desert. Kyler Murray has
- 24:28Speaker 3: been limited at practice this week. I will take the
- 24:31Speaker 3: Packers twenty three to seventeen. The Packers' defense looks good
- 24:34Speaker 3: in this one. And if you're concerned about last week's
- 24:37Speaker 3: Joe Flacco game, let's go back and look at what
- 24:40Speaker 3: actually happened. If you're a Packers fan, that's like, oh,
- 24:42Speaker 3: we can't defend the past. It's Jamar Chase Kasehawn Nixon
- 24:45Speaker 3: was all over him. He's just being a better football player.
- 24:49Speaker 2: But everybody still waiting to.
- 24:51Speaker 3: Get Marvin Harrison Junior out of the conuntry protocol. Wilson's
- 24:54Speaker 3: not doing this all love the Greg dortsch. He's not
- 24:58Speaker 3: Uno and yeah, Joe Flacco threw that one. No look,
- 25:02Speaker 3: I think, and here's the touchdown.
- 25:03Speaker 2: This's just a greed.
- 25:04Speaker 3: I really just wanted to look at this play because
- 25:07Speaker 3: that's an interception that turns into a touchdown.
- 25:10Speaker 5: Yeahuk, who else could make magic like that? How about
- 25:13Speaker 5: a little Jacoby Brissett and Trey McBride.
- 25:16Speaker 4: Okay, I think they'll keep it close.
- 25:18Speaker 3: I like Greg has a much closer score than I
- 25:21Speaker 3: of He's got twenty four to twenty.
- 25:22Speaker 2: One and assigned for more or less.
- 25:25Speaker 3: As we discuss some player props for this week's Rams
- 25:28Speaker 3: Jags matchup in London, we will start with Cynthia Freelan.
- 25:32Speaker 3: Will Matthew Stafford throw for more or less than two
- 25:34Speaker 3: hundred and forty eight yards in the game?
- 25:37Speaker 6: More why this is a bottom five passing defense, Matthew
- 25:41Speaker 6: Stafford historically has had great opportunities as do I know
- 25:44Speaker 6: exactly which pass catcher will benefit from this? Absolutely not,
- 25:48Speaker 6: But I don't care because I'm not asked about that.
- 25:50Speaker 6: I'm asked about Matthew Stafford.
- 25:52Speaker 5: So it's more, you know what Matthew Stafford eats up
- 25:55Speaker 5: for breakfast zone defenses, and that's what the Jaguars really major.
- 25:59Speaker 5: And also I'm not saying Roger Goodell can make this happen,
- 26:03Speaker 5: but after the pass performances the last couple of weeks
- 26:06Speaker 5: in London, like we're just looking for a lot of
- 26:08Speaker 5: passing as a league, and Matthew Stafford can deliver.
- 26:11Speaker 4: We just mean, like, let's just have some.
- 26:16Speaker 7: In Hey, hello, we're going to need a passing play here.
- 26:18Speaker 3: Ma sture please are Kyon Williams at sixty nine rushing yards?
- 26:22Speaker 2: Is to get north of that number, Greg more.
- 26:24Speaker 4: Or less, you know this is what happens in a
- 26:26Speaker 4: live show. Let's go over to the number.
- 26:28Speaker 5: I like Kyle Kyrien Williams this week because their success
- 26:32Speaker 5: rate in terms of when they're designing runs on the
- 26:35Speaker 5: ground among the highest in the NFL. Blake Korham not
- 26:39Speaker 5: one hundred percent healthy Kyrien Williams with a really good
- 26:42Speaker 5: bounce back performance against the Baltimore Ravens.
- 26:45Speaker 4: The Jaguars are pretty tough upfront.
- 26:47Speaker 5: But ultimately I think good offense beats good defense, rams run.
- 26:51Speaker 6: The ball well Sneaky little stat here is the Jags
- 26:54Speaker 6: are very good at contacting rushers behind the line of scrimmage.
- 26:57Speaker 7: So I'm with you on the total yards, but be
- 26:59Speaker 7: mindful it could cause a turnover.
- 27:02Speaker 2: Yeah, gotta protect the ball.
- 27:03Speaker 3: I'll take the US won sixty seven receiving yards for
- 27:06Speaker 3: Brian Thomas.
- 27:07Speaker 2: Junior, I like the over. Let's go here.
- 27:09Speaker 3: The last two weeks he's averaging eighty five yards a game,
- 27:14Speaker 3: and then you go back to the start of the season.
- 27:15Speaker 3: It's a new coaching staff, Liam Cohen in that tree
- 27:18Speaker 3: that's like the tree of life where the entire league
- 27:21Speaker 3: has its tentacles on this coaching tree. On this offense,
- 27:25Speaker 3: it was like they were trying to use Brian Thomas
- 27:27Speaker 3: Junior like he's Bobby Trees, like he's Cooper Cup, but
- 27:31Speaker 3: he's not. The outbreaking routes have been more successful for BTJ.
- 27:34Speaker 2: I think he's up up higher than that number.
- 27:36Speaker 6: You already know how I feel about Brian Thomas Junior
- 27:38Speaker 6: in this matchup. But here's one that you should also
- 27:40Speaker 6: keep an eye on. It's the number for Travis Hunter.
- 27:43Speaker 6: I think he goes over thirty five and a half
- 27:45Speaker 6: receiving yards.
- 27:45Speaker 7: So both of them wars all around here.
- 27:48Speaker 5: I could see the Jaguars and this this is a
- 27:51Speaker 5: big rivalry week for them. A lot of shared DNA
- 27:54Speaker 5: less Snead, James Gladstone the gym. They want to make
- 27:57Speaker 5: that Travis Hunter kick look great in the national game.
- 28:00Speaker 4: It just they're gonna highlight it.
- 28:02Speaker 7: Sicks thirty six yard makes him look great.
- 28:04Speaker 4: Maybe throw the ball down the field the Travis side.
- 28:06Speaker 2: Thanks. Some shots have him cover well too. Don't forget.
- 28:09Speaker 3: You can catch this game Sunday morning at nine thirty
- 28:11Speaker 3: am Eastern on NFL Network.
- 28:13Speaker 2: Speaking of London, here's a look at the remaining international game.
- 28:16Speaker 3: So that's that's the one at Wimbley on Sunday and
- 28:19Speaker 3: then in Vernon, winn on November ninth. The Falcons and
- 28:23Speaker 3: the Cultimoal finish up the international slate with the Washington
- 28:26Speaker 3: Commanders taking on the Miami Dolphins Sunday, November sixteen. It's
- 28:30Speaker 3: signed for What's Ahead, presented by Credit One Bank, Danny
- 28:34Speaker 3: Dimes in the five to one Colts taking on the Chargers.
- 28:38Speaker 3: The Bolts stole one last week in Miami. What do
- 28:40Speaker 3: you see taking place?
- 28:42Speaker 4: This is the top game?
- 28:44Speaker 7: Ready for two three?
- 28:46Speaker 4: Okay?
- 28:46Speaker 5: Well, now I can only hope Daniel Jones is as
- 28:50Speaker 5: accurate as we just were in this game, and I
- 28:53Speaker 5: think he will be. He has been different this year.
- 28:55Speaker 5: I like the Colts to win this game right now. Yes,
- 28:59Speaker 5: the Chargers could get some players back that could affect
- 29:01Speaker 5: my decision.
- 29:01Speaker 4: But Daniel Jones has been playing well under pressure.
- 29:04Speaker 5: This This is money time last week, fourth quarter, they
- 29:07Speaker 5: need to drive pressures on. Daniel Jones stands in there
- 29:11Speaker 5: before taking a big time hit on a throw over
- 29:13Speaker 5: the middle, the type of play he wasn't hitting before.
- 29:15Speaker 5: This is the third and seven situation, final drive. Again
- 29:19Speaker 5: under pressure, makes a quick decision, has answers that Shane
- 29:23Speaker 5: Steiken is giving him quick out. Josh Downs is another
- 29:26Speaker 5: key guy to watch in terms of his status for
- 29:29Speaker 5: this game. I think it's a toss up to me.
- 29:31Speaker 5: It's a little bit of a stay away. But they
- 29:32Speaker 5: make us pick, and I'll pick the Colts.
- 29:34Speaker 6: I'm happy to pick the Colts by three points in
- 29:37Speaker 6: this one, twenty seven to twenty four. You talk about
- 29:39Speaker 6: Danny Dimes being good under pressure. In fact, his passerating
- 29:42Speaker 6: is better under pressure than it is when he's not
- 29:44Speaker 6: under pressure. You know why busy He's got Jonathan Taylor
- 29:47Speaker 6: helping him out at every turn. I did some radio
- 29:51Speaker 6: this week and they asked me some questions like, oh,
- 29:53Speaker 6: are the Colts just for real or.
- 29:54Speaker 7: Is just like a joke and I was so confused.
- 29:57Speaker 6: So until the Colts are given the national love that
- 30:01Speaker 6: they deserve, I'm gonna keep talking about Jonathan I'm just
- 30:03Speaker 6: gonna keep going over Jonathan Taylor. Insert here, why most
- 30:06Speaker 6: explosive plays in the league, yards before contact, yards after contact,
- 30:10Speaker 6: He's doing all of it.
- 30:11Speaker 7: He's your scrimming drug. Like what weren't warny You need
- 30:13Speaker 7: from this team.
- 30:14Speaker 6: To be actually taken seriously. So I'm just gonna talk
- 30:17Speaker 6: about Jonathan Taylor every week until they get the love
- 30:19Speaker 6: they deserve.
- 30:20Speaker 3: Yeah, Radio Guy, Yeah, Radio Cinthia Freeland. Uh on, you
- 30:24Speaker 3: gotta come a little better than are the cults. Yes, yes,
- 30:27Speaker 3: it's not a joke. Like nobody's out here pretending. I've
- 30:30Speaker 3: got them winning by seven. Now, as Greg pointed out
- 30:32Speaker 3: the Chargers injuries, Joe Al he's playing Khalil Mac. Maybe
- 30:35Speaker 3: I'll bump the Chargers score up a little bit, but
- 30:38Speaker 3: I'll take the Colts here because right now Tyler Warren
- 30:40Speaker 3: is playing like a Rookie of the Year. Kennedy, you
- 30:43Speaker 3: have to look out and see what if a Meca
- 30:44Speaker 3: Buka is going to be back healthy for the Tampa
- 30:47Speaker 3: Bay Buccaneers. But against the Arizona Cardinals, Tyler Warren caught
- 30:51Speaker 3: at least one pass lined up tight to the formation,
- 30:54Speaker 3: gotta pass out in the slot, got a pass out
- 30:58Speaker 3: wide as a wide receiver.
- 30:59Speaker 2: And lined up in the backfield. They do everything with
- 31:03Speaker 2: Tyler Warren, who who's got.
- 31:04Speaker 3: More receiving yards than any other tight end in the NFL.
- 31:07Speaker 5: Right now, you know, I just came up with the
- 31:10Speaker 5: next greg stats that just occurred to me as we're
- 31:12Speaker 5: talking about the game. What's the record for the Indianapolis
- 31:15Speaker 5: Colts this year when they're not playing in Sofi Stadium?
- 31:19Speaker 4: Five? And oh what's their record in Sofi Stadium?
- 31:22Speaker 5: Oh and one? They haven't won a single game in
- 31:25Speaker 5: Sofi Stadium. I think they go to zero to two
- 31:27Speaker 5: this week.
- 31:27Speaker 3: Oh wow, the stadium itself defending as crict.
- 31:34Speaker 4: A house of horrors. Yeah, I'm flipping that pick.
- 31:36Speaker 3: All right, dimes in one, showing they've got a special connection.
- 31:39Speaker 3: But the hottest duo in the league right now has
- 31:41Speaker 3: to be Sam Darnold and Jackson Smith in jigbu.
- 31:45Speaker 10: Horton wide to the right side, play fake Donald has time,
- 31:49Speaker 10: gonna let it fly. Jasen is out there, jasen As
- 31:53Speaker 10: it cut down chay Hawks hot spike in the end
- 31:58Speaker 10: zone and a sixty one yard rocket to number eleven Jay. Yeah,
- 32:04Speaker 10: Sam put six more.
- 32:06Speaker 4: On the board for the Hawks.
- 32:07Speaker 10: And that's how you loosen up that defense that is
- 32:10Speaker 10: fighting you tooth and nail at the line of scrimmage.
- 32:13Speaker 2: You throw over them and.
- 32:15Speaker 10: The Seahawks explode for a big touchdown reception.
- 32:20Speaker 3: The Seahawks saying the Jags last week. Now they're playing
- 32:23Speaker 3: host of CJ. Stroud in the Texas on Monday Night
- 32:25Speaker 3: football Houston, coming off of their bye.
- 32:28Speaker 2: Who has the edge here, Greg.
- 32:29Speaker 5: I'll give it to the Seahawks, but I love this
- 32:31Speaker 5: game injected into my vein. Seahawks win by a point,
- 32:34Speaker 5: but I just think it's gonna be an awesome contest. Ultimately,
- 32:38Speaker 5: I'm going with the Seahawks because of Jackson Smith in Jigba. Look,
- 32:42Speaker 5: can we please stop saying that these Ohio state wide
- 32:46Speaker 5: receivers are.
- 32:47Speaker 4: Oh like, oh, they're a safe mix.
- 32:49Speaker 5: Oh they're like a high floor, but like a low ceiling.
- 32:52Speaker 5: Not that exciting wide receivers out of the slot. Don't
- 32:55Speaker 5: even call them a slat receiver because they are playing
- 32:58Speaker 5: on the outside Jackson Smith and Jigma has about one
- 33:01Speaker 5: hundred and fifty yards more playing on the outside, more
- 33:03Speaker 5: than any receiver in the league. But between him and
- 33:07Speaker 5: Nika Abuka, like those two are the most explosive, exciting
- 33:12Speaker 5: high ceiling. Their ceiling is the roof right now. And
- 33:14Speaker 5: he is the best receiver of twenty twenty five JSN
- 33:18Speaker 5: in Seattle.
- 33:19Speaker 6: And I know this was such a hut button issue
- 33:21Speaker 6: for you would have prepared some notes on this, because
- 33:24Speaker 6: I haven't seen you get that Madden quite some time.
- 33:26Speaker 7: Anyways, I too have Seattle.
- 33:28Speaker 6: Winning this one by a bigger margin twenty two to nineteen.
- 33:31Speaker 6: I want to talk about Seattle's defense now. The way
- 33:34Speaker 6: that they play defense allows their secondary to appear like
- 33:38Speaker 6: even greater than they are. You don't have to have
- 33:40Speaker 6: as much nuanced football knowledge to see just.
- 33:43Speaker 7: How great they are. Upfront.
- 33:44Speaker 6: They're not even blitzing, and they're getting tons of pressure
- 33:46Speaker 6: on guys and the back ends getting healthier. We've got
- 33:49Speaker 6: Nick eban Wari and this guy is coming out of
- 33:52Speaker 6: the gates just strong, looking like a veteran already. So
- 33:56Speaker 6: I'm watching this defense and I'm thinking, Wow, there's something
- 33:59Speaker 6: really interesting, especially or Obviously, Mike.
- 34:01Speaker 7: McDonald comes from the mold.
- 34:02Speaker 6: These are defensive coordinator the Ravens, who comes from a
- 34:05Speaker 6: very strong Well, maybe that's one of the trees we
- 34:07Speaker 6: need to get you get down with, is the defensive
- 34:11Speaker 6: molding from the Ravens. But I'm looking at this one
- 34:13Speaker 6: and I just think that this defense is too much
- 34:16Speaker 6: to keep that hotness we saw from CJ. Strouden company
- 34:19Speaker 6: going in this matchup.
- 34:21Speaker 3: I will go all alone by off and take the
- 34:23Speaker 3: Houston Texans from the upset on the road this year
- 34:27Speaker 3: with the virtue of their pass defense, we're talking about
- 34:30Speaker 3: great defenders. Derek Stingley Junior and Kamari Lasser are two
- 34:33Speaker 3: very very good ones. They're the number two EPA pass
- 34:37Speaker 3: defense in the league.
- 34:38Speaker 2: I know when we saw highlights of them.
- 34:40Speaker 3: Playing that game against Cooper Rush doesn't help. But think
- 34:44Speaker 3: about what it took for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a
- 34:46Speaker 3: healthier Tampa Bay Buccaneers team to have to drive down.
- 34:50Speaker 2: The field and win the game.
- 34:51Speaker 3: Yes, the Texans gave up that one, but as the
- 34:54Speaker 3: offense sees a little bit of improvement, they go up
- 34:57Speaker 3: to take on the Seahawks, who are the number thirty
- 35:00Speaker 3: one offense in terms of rush efficiency. They're gonna have
- 35:03Speaker 3: to pass against the pretty good defense. And I'm confident
- 35:06Speaker 3: as uh, you know, it's hard. It's hard for defenders
- 35:08Speaker 3: to get wins. I think the Texans defense.
- 35:10Speaker 5: And when you are confident, this year's eleven and four
- 35:16Speaker 5: on straybond picks. So if you add up all of
- 35:18Speaker 5: our numbers, just the prime numbers there, just Greg's we're
- 35:21Speaker 5: thirty and fourteen when we're out on an island. So
- 35:24Speaker 5: when we're feeling confident, it has worked out this year, right,
- 35:27Speaker 5: I don't know what that means, but it's provocation.
- 35:29Speaker 2: Take it. Take take it from Greg on an island.
- 35:32Speaker 7: Provocative coming up.
- 35:35Speaker 3: But the Patriots are in first place in the AFC
- 35:37Speaker 3: East Greggs boy Drake May is falling there, going to Nashville,
- 35:41Speaker 3: and you know, refine.
- 35:43Speaker 2: Mike Brable says it's not on his mind.
- 35:45Speaker 3: He says it's interesting, doesn't necessarily say it's important.
- 35:48Speaker 2: Do the Patriots make it four straight wins? We'll tell
- 35:50Speaker 2: you next.
- 36:01Speaker 9: Fay can't go off to Stevenson May feeling the pressure.
- 36:04Speaker 4: Taking a shot. He's got his marin.
- 36:06Speaker 9: It's Pop Douglas and he is in touchdown, and we
- 36:11Speaker 9: got Haymakers all over the place at the start fifty
- 36:15Speaker 9: three yards strike from me.
- 36:19Speaker 3: Ton per quick fix here on game Dave you those
- 36:22Speaker 3: red hot Patriots winners of three straight taking on the Titans.
- 36:25Speaker 3: Does Mike Rabel go back down to where he wants
- 36:28Speaker 3: coach Greg and get ribrid.
- 36:30Speaker 4: He absolutely does in Nashville. He's lucky he.
- 36:34Speaker 5: Got out of that organization into a stable one where
- 36:36Speaker 5: nothing bad ever happened. The Patriots win this game because
- 36:39Speaker 5: of Drake May. If you had just showed me Drake
- 36:42Speaker 5: May's stats after six weeks of this season before it started,
- 36:47Speaker 5: I mean I wouldn't have believed you how good they're. Like,
- 36:49Speaker 5: I'm trying to not get over my skis, but this
- 36:51Speaker 5: man is twenty three years old. His numbers are top
- 36:55Speaker 5: five and basically anything you want to put up in
- 36:57Speaker 5: the entire NFL. The only thing you can hold against
- 37:00Speaker 5: them is the schedule.
- 37:02Speaker 4: And you know what, it stays easy more a while.
- 37:05Speaker 5: So I don't care if we're gonna find out how
- 37:07Speaker 5: he's gonna do against better competition. He is cooking bad
- 37:09Speaker 5: teams like the Titans.
- 37:10Speaker 2: Look Greg levitating.
- 37:12Speaker 3: Right now, all that matters is Drake may my favorite
- 37:15Speaker 3: Greg rose Bo Panthers and Jets at Matt Life Gangreen's
- 37:19Speaker 3: still looking for that first win of the year.
- 37:21Speaker 2: They came close last week. Did they get it this time?
- 37:23Speaker 2: So good?
- 37:24Speaker 7: They do get whoa this time? Twenty one to twenty.
- 37:27Speaker 6: I was a little shocked when the model said that
- 37:29Speaker 6: as well. However, this one comes down to consistency in
- 37:32Speaker 6: the run game from Breece Hall.
- 37:34Speaker 7: This is a prime number.
- 37:36Speaker 6: We need to play that little music where I could
- 37:38Speaker 6: just do it, you know, for you.
- 37:40Speaker 7: But Brece Hall.
- 37:41Speaker 6: Is consistently getting those explosive runs. And on the defensive
- 37:44Speaker 6: side of things, they have Jermaine Johnson back, which changes
- 37:47Speaker 6: things completely. He can actually set the edge that's been
- 37:50Speaker 6: something that they've been missing.
- 37:51Speaker 7: So in this game, by the slimmest of margins.
- 37:54Speaker 6: That your Jets are officially off of the zero win column.
- 37:59Speaker 3: We'll see if the Carolina Panthers can become like stop
- 38:02Speaker 3: being the reverse Seahawks, go get a win on the
- 38:06Speaker 3: road they have needed to be in Charlotte. I will
- 38:08Speaker 3: go to the Dolphins and the Browns. Miami is coming
- 38:11Speaker 3: off that heartbreaker against the Chargers in a tumultuous week
- 38:14Speaker 3: where it's like everything else in corporate America, way too
- 38:17Speaker 3: much discussion about meetings. I think the Fins win it
- 38:21Speaker 3: fourteen to ten.
- 38:22Speaker 2: And here's a weird step.
- 38:23Speaker 3: Davon Han has ran to the left sixty one percent
- 38:27Speaker 3: of the time this season.
- 38:28Speaker 2: It's the highest and what i'll call the handedness rate
- 38:31Speaker 2: in the league. He had that forty nine yarder going
- 38:34Speaker 2: to the right. So there's that. Take from that what
- 38:37Speaker 2: you will. But both Greg and I think that the.
- 38:41Speaker 6: Wow, are you seriously giving me a prime number on
- 38:44Speaker 6: the Browns at home? And the terrible conditions with Quinn
- 38:47Speaker 6: Shawn Judkins.
- 38:47Speaker 7: So okay, whatever I'll take me.
- 38:49Speaker 5: Let's not like get too confident about the Browns in
- 38:53Speaker 5: any Situy. I gotta think you could be confident in
- 38:55Speaker 5: either of these teams.
- 38:56Speaker 4: But I'm just saying, you.
- 38:58Speaker 7: Talk about handedness.
- 38:59Speaker 6: This is also one that's interesting because there's two lefties
- 39:01Speaker 6: both from Hawaii.
- 39:02Speaker 7: Yesh, you know, first.
- 39:03Speaker 2: Time are in a slog, which is why I have fourteen.
- 39:07Speaker 3: To ten considering the conditions they are still to come.
- 39:10Speaker 3: It's time to get wild and crazy our favorite prop.
- 39:13Speaker 2: Bets of the week.
- 39:14Speaker 3: We went zero in three last week, so my math
- 39:17Speaker 3: says we are due. It's time to free flying flying Greg.
- 39:22Speaker 2: We'll stick around. We've got more game debut coming up.
- 39:24Speaker 5: My pick is we learn from politics. He don't say
- 39:27Speaker 5: the bad stuff.
- 39:28Speaker 2: We acknowledge truth, not politicians. Here, We're focused on the future.
- 39:32Speaker 2: We'll be back. We're back on game day.

- 40:07Speaker 3: us started off, Greg, because.
- 40:09Speaker 2: We need some wins.
- 40:10Speaker 5: We're gonna get some wins, and we're gonna get wins
- 40:12Speaker 5: from a guy who gave the Chargers a win last week,
- 40:14Speaker 5: Lad McConkie getting more than sixty five and a half
- 40:18Speaker 5: receiving yards this week against a cult secondary where I
- 40:22Speaker 5: bet you cannot name one of their cornerbacks.
- 40:25Speaker 7: Ever Various Ward.
- 40:26Speaker 4: He's out this week that's on the field, so it'll
- 40:28Speaker 4: be like five black men. Ok Yeah, that's okay, that's
- 40:31Speaker 4: a good point.
- 40:33Speaker 5: Sometimes you gotta remember who you are, and you gotta
- 40:35Speaker 5: remind your coach who you are. Jim Harbaughs talking about,
- 40:40Speaker 5: you know, his quarterback being Ethan Hunt, the head of
- 40:43Speaker 5: Mission Impossible. Ladi McConkie is your number one wide receiver.
- 40:48Speaker 5: He's the one making the impossible possible. He was the
- 40:50Speaker 5: one who made this play. Yeah, it's nice that Keenan
- 40:53Speaker 5: Allen's having a comeback season and Clinton Johnson is good
- 40:55Speaker 5: down the field. Their best receiver is Ladi McConkie.
- 40:58Speaker 6: Okay, well, I'm gonna go with your team, the Patriots,
- 41:01Speaker 6: and it's Hunter Henry to score a touchdown, now, a
- 41:04Speaker 6: touchdown is a big thing to have happened. So there's
- 41:07Speaker 6: good value here if you know what I'm talking about.
- 41:10Speaker 6: Why do I have this happening? Well, if you look
- 41:12Speaker 6: at his red zone target percentage, Oh, it just paces
- 41:15Speaker 6: all tight ends and it paces the Patriots.
- 41:18Speaker 7: And also it's higher than when Rob Gronkowski was playing
- 41:21Speaker 7: but Tom Brady a couple of years. So hey, there
- 41:24Speaker 7: you go. That's a fun one.
- 41:26Speaker 3: I am going to try to bounce back from my
- 41:28Speaker 3: first miss of write this down in this twenty twenty
- 41:31Speaker 3: five season because I said that Tenor Role McMillan was
- 41:34Speaker 3: going to have yards, he wound up having touchdowns and said,
- 41:37Speaker 3: so my apologies there. Botnicks is playing up against the
- 41:40Speaker 3: Giants defense that continues to allow deep passes against him.
- 41:43Speaker 3: He's going to have a depletion over thirty four yards.
- 41:46Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts would have had one last week, but he
- 41:48Speaker 3: missed it. We miss you every single week. Come back
- 41:51Speaker 3: and see us next week for Cynthia Free, Gregorrol's at
