Mac & Bone Hour 2: Panthers/Lions Matchups · Mac & Bone Podcast

• 0:19
  Speaker 1: The Browns did a good job of mixing it up
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: with man and some of their two stuff that we
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: knew they were going to do. For me, it's just
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: continuing to get the tendencies of the defense. When are
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: those man opportunities where I can put them in a
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: favorable spot to take advantage of whether it's a slot
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: defender or motioning them to the opposite side of the formation.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: And then one of those zone opportunities where I'm calling
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: the right things to make sure that we're putting them
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: in the right voids. I think Cleveland did a good
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: job of doing a little bit of a mixture. We
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: know they're a heavy man team. We knew they had
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: the roll-to coverage and the unlocked safeties and the corners
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: backing off. So making sure that I'm picking my spots
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: to call those zone concepts versus man concepts as well.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: That is Brad Idzik talking about what happened last week
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: to TMAC, how Denzel Ward and the Browns put him
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: on a milk carton, and how can we avoid that
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: moving forward? Again, I cannot believe Bone. They did not, like,
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: Denzel Ward never goes in the slot. Never.
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: And he is shutting down TMAC on the outside, and
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: we upped TMAC's slot snap percentage by 1%.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: He had been 29% in the slot in the first
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: two weeks. And at no point does Brad Idzik think
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: this is a game where I got to get him
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: away from Denzel Ward, the boogeyman. Like I just, I
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: just can't believe it. And again, I think Idzik's doing
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: a lot of good things so far, but there are
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: definite criticisms of him. He's got to find a way
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: to get better run pass balance. And that is just,
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: that's absurd to me that you, you know, Denzel Ward
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: doesn't go.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: In the slot ever. You can check up the, check
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: the stats on it.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: And you could have got him away from Denzel Ward,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: and they didn't choose to do that, except that basically
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: the same amount of times they did in the previous
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: two games.
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: I know that Sunday wasn't his best outing, but still
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: a very, very good start for Bryce Young to lead
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: the league in passing yards. And that's without consistent run
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: game and without T-Mac really. I mean, he's been OK.
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: Like the Bears game, he was all right. The other
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: day he was invisible. but that's without TMAC really being
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: the number one guy. So think about the offense. If
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: they can get the run game established consistently, if they
• 2:26
  Speaker 5: can get TMAC and Coker kind of maybe going together
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: here at some point, this offense is still not really
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: hit its peak yet. Bryce is doing well. Now we
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: need the things around Bryce to pick up a little bit.
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: Offensive line play. Run game consistency. Both wide receivers going.
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: Bryce is doing fine. Let's get those things around him cooking.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: And in fairness, a lot of things have been in
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: the injuries, too, have been the problem. Big reason why
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: we are last in pressure percentage allowed. By the way,
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: the reactions to my rant towards Fetty are hilarious. Some
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: people think I've been using narcotics this morning. Some people
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: just found it funny. And then you have the people
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: that are like, Mac, did you really say that the
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Panthers games, you would never change? Choose your wife over
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: a Panthers game? The Panthers have been nothing but a
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: headache for essentially the last decade.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: Yes, I choose the headache. I choose the headache.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: Oh, man.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: All right. And then the other guy cracked me up.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: The one guy noting that in the middle of the
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: rant the whole time the NFL music was playing underneath.
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: I didn't even realize. I didn't even realize. Fiddy, you demand-o, baby.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: You demand-o, Fiddy.
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: I think my name after that last segment, Mac, is
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: Tommy Toughass.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Just call me three Ts. Oh, my God.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: You see the guy, Bone, that said his 8-year-old is
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: asking him, why is that man so angry and calling
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Fitty funny names?
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: We called that Friday on the Mac and Bone show.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: I'm fired up. Okay, so here, let's do this.
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: We just got a text from both Mike McCarthy and
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers. You guys okay today?
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: You did compare their relationship to ours in the 6
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: o'clock hour. I had a feeling. All right, so let's channel.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: I've got a lot of energy this morning, Bone. I've
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: got a lot of passion this morning.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: It's like D.O. with Murphy. Let's channel it towards... The.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Carolina Panthers and the Detroit Lions, our first chance in
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: 11 years to host a Sunday night football game, our
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: first chance in 10 years to even play in a
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: Sunday night game. The last Sunday night game was the
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Cam no tie game where Derek Anderson starts for him
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: and throws a damn pick. So not great memories. We've
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: struggled in these spots on primetime. We talked about that
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: in the first hour. There's a lot of negativity because
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: of all the dang injuries that we have, Bone Man.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: But let's start on a positive front here. And I
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: have a feeling this is going to involve the offense.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: But what are the matchups in this game where you're like,
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: injuries be damned? Like, this can work for us.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: This guy can have a big game.
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: The Lions are the worst team in the league at
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: defending tight ends through three weeks. They've allowed 29 catches,
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: 351 yards, six touchdowns, and 12.1 yards per catch versus
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: opposing tight ends. All of those are the worst in
• 5:14
  Speaker 5: the league. So this is a great spot for not
• 5:17
  Speaker 5: only Waller, B. Tremble, Evans, whatever. This is a great
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: spot to really move the chains with the tight ends. Yes,
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: we want T-Mac to go off. We want Coker to play.
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: And that's great. But this is a great matchup for
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: a guy like Waller up the seam, whatever it may be.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: Great matchup.
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: All the Panther tight ends versus the Lions inability to
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: cover anything involving a tight end.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, somebody texted earlier and said, sounds like the Lions
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: against tight ends are what we were last year with
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: our linebackers.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: They allowed 13, and not just Sadiq last week, 13
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: catches and 164 to all the Jets tight ends last week.
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: They have given up over 350 yards in three games
• 5:58
  Speaker 5: to tight ends. They're worst in the league in that category.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: And a big reason why, Bone, well, first of all,
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: when you have three safeties out, You're going to have
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: trouble controlling the middle of the field where the tight
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: ends work.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: So that's one.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Their three best safeties are out with injuries. But their
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: middle linebacker, Jack Campbell, he's doing a Roseboom impression right now.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: He has given up, according to PFF, for a 145
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: quarterback rating, 12 catches through three games, and a 12.1
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: yards per catch. So he is getting, which is a
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: big one for linebacker coverage. So he's a dude you
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: could take advantage of. The good news is I could
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: just piggyback off what you said there, Bone, and say
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: the same thing for wide receivers because they have given
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: up the fourth most yards to wide receivers. This is
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: a game literally the number one passing offense yards-wise, your
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Carolina Panthers, and the worst passing defense in the league,
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: the Detroit Lions. And they have struggled in both those areas,
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: tight ends and wide receivers.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: I'm with you.
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: I really feel like it's a game where if Coker
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: can go. I feel like he's got to try to
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: give it a go, because if you have both those
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: guys out there and have some balance, I think the
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: wide receivers and tight ends can have big days. You've
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: got to find a way, Bone, to get Bryce a
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: little bit of time. You've got to help out on Hutchinson.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: Lomas Brown, I think, said it right yesterday when he
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: came on, former O-lineman. He said, basically, you should just
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: essentially double-hutch most of the game and make the other
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: guys beat you. Not that some of the other guys, Bone...
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: haven't done well in the pass rush game, but I
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: think you've got to pick your poison.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Also, move Bryce.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: It worked so well in the second half, Bone, on
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: that touchdown drive against Cleveland when we moved him.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Move Bryce. Get him outside the pocket.
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: If you're into fantasy or prop bets, and I know
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: that you have to monitor the health of Waller, I
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: think that's a thing always with him, but if Waller's
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: good to go, to me, I would... If I'm playing fantasy,
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: that's a guy you're starting if you're betting on props, touchdowns,
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: or whatever it may be. I think Waller's a great
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: play for that stuff this week. We talked in the
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: first hour. It's that weird thing this week, Mac, where
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: we want the Panthers to score a lot of points,
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: but also I think that... It's great to score quickly,
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: but it's okay in this game if Goff and Gibbs
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: and those wideouts, if they're sitting on the sidelines for
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: a while, that's fine. Can you get points with sustained drives?
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: Keep them off the field. That's going to involve the
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: run game. You don't have to be in a hurry
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: here to try to go up and down and match every–
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: Lions are going to score. You don't have to match
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: them in two or three plays. Take your time. Run
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: the football. Establish the clock. Time of possession to me–
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: is a huge factor in this football game. And we're
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: 27th in time possession.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: We are third in plays run on offense per minute.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: We are going fast. And, yeah, that's what I said
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: in the first hour, Bone, and I think we're on
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: the same page on this. I don't want to play
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: a 14-possession game like we did against the Bears. I
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: don't want to give golf the ball double-digit times if
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: we can help it.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: So I want to score. I want to finish in
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: the red zone. We've got to do that. We haven't
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: been great at that.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: But– I don't want it to be one where we're
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: going fast and, oh, you just gave the ball back
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: to the high-powered Lions offense and we don't have Mike
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: Jack and Horn.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: Right, exactly. It's that sort of thing.
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: People are comparing you on the text line right now, Mac,
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: to great sports ranters of all time. Mac went Mike
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: Singletary to Phitties Vernon Davis. Can't win with him. Can't
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: win with him. Can't have a love life with him.
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: People have compared you to Dennis Green. He is who
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: he thought he is. They're now thinking that you had
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: one of the great sports fans of all time.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Jim Mora Sr. came up.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: I lost it. I lost it. The good news is
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: I feel like I'm free bone to take Mrs. Mack
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: out at any time without any 50 straight.
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: The thing about 50, though, you won't repackage that to
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: a promo that runs for the next three months.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: We're already having people ask, what was Max Grant?
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: That will probably have to be played later on the show,
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: I guess. Do you mind, Fit? Because I was kind
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: of being a jerk to you. Do you mind playing
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: it again later?
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: I don't mind.
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: It's really a poor reflection of you. Because you're just
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: easily triggered. I'm just back here being a troll. I
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: don't think it's a poor reflection. Oh, yes, because you
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: know the deal. Everyone knows that since I've started dating,
• 10:18
  Speaker 6: I've missed more sporting events than I would have liked
• 10:21
  Speaker 6: to have. But it's just part of the responsibility. I
• 10:25
  Speaker 6: was just trying to see, would you take the bait?
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: And boy, did you. Let the troll be under his
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: bridge and do his thing and leave him alone back there.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: You know what?
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: Now I don't feel bad. Now I might choose physical
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: violence instead of verbal violence.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Oh, here we go. There's no one else in the
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: building to troll like you.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: Can I troll Flounder?
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: How about Bone? You got something there? He trolls me. No, because....
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: Bone won't give you that reaction. Anyway, then I don't
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: feel bad. Matter of fact, not only do I.
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: If you notice, Fitty and I save our shouting matches
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: for the college basketball season.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: We build up for a while. All right, let's move along.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: We got a Panther game to go here. Sorry I
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: called you a loser last year.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: We got a Panther game to handle here. Somebody else
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: that might get me to scream. Formal Timothy. Let's see
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: what he's saying on the text line. Jimmy D says,
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: Fitty is growing up. No, when he stops trolling people,
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: they hear we've grown. But I'm not holding my breath
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: for that one. Formal Timothy says, you guys do realize
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: every time you say there's a weakness on the other team,
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: we should exploit, i.e. the Browns run defense. We go
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: out and make them look like all pros in that weakness.
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: All I can do, brother, is tell you what their
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: weaknesses is. Or whatever I'm trying to say. I can't
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: go out there, Bone, and make the Panthers exploit it.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: I can't. It's up to them.
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: It's literally what they're weak at. We're bringing it up.
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: We're not playing the games, guys. I'd be shocked. Although
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: sometimes it looks like it on defense like we might be.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: I would be shocked if Bryce does not have a
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: bunch of success in this game. Now, the counter is,
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: does Bryce also get sacked a bunch of times? Is
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: he pressured into mistakes? Things like that. I'm not saying
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: there's not going to be pressure, but last week, Bone,
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: the Jets, Geno Smith was under pressure a ton and
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: still found a way to throw for what, like 330?
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: On him last week?
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: 337.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: Now, here's the flip side.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: I think it was.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: Here's the flip side, though. Yeah, we have advantage. And
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: this is why everybody's calling the game a shootout, right?
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: You're going to hear Trevor Sycamore in the final hour
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: of the show saying, there's going to be a lot
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: of points. This is going to be a fun one.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: If you want to talk now about the bad matchups
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: for us, it's the other side of the ball, obviously.
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: And that's one where it's like you're just– I don't know.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: You might have your rosary. You might want to take
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: your rosary with you if you're a Catholic when you
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: sit in the stands. Because this Panther banged up back end, Bone,
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: with Horn and Mike Jack out, this is, you know,
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: it's not the ideal team to be playing, you know,
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: in this situation. Zoki came in with a stack of
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Lions stats this morning, getting ready for his broadcast on
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: Sunday night. He did not know that we had a
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: conversation about blitzing Jared Goff yesterday, and he brought up
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: to me without me mentioning it. Goff last week against
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: the Jets, against the Blitz, 16 for 17. 169, two touchdowns.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: Absolutely decimated the Jets against the Blitz last week.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: He did. He did.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: And for the season, he has a 141 rating against
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: the Blitz. 80% completions, five touchdowns, and no picks. So
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying, Bone, listen, he's too good to sit
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: there and zone the whole time. He going to figure
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: that out? So you do have to show him different looks.
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: You do have to send some blitzes, but you do
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: have to be cognizant of his ability against the blitz.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: But again, this is the type of game, Bone, where
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: you worry about everything. You worry about Jameer Gibbs. Our
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: run defense has gotten better every week in yards per
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: game allowed, yards per carry allowed. We gave up only
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: 91 yards to Bijan, total offense. I'm not sure that's
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: happening this week, but can we do something similar? But
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: it feels like Detroit's going to score a lot of points.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: It feels like we have a chance to score a
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: lot of points. This is the type of game, Bone,
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: where I talk about the four-point plays for our defense.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: And we have been really bad defensively in the red
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: zone so far this year. This is where I feel
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: like if you can, because you know Detroit's moving the ball.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: Right. Oh, there's no doubt about that. Both offenses are.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: If you can two or two or three possessions, make
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: them kick a field goal instead of score a touchdown.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: That adds up like this is a game where I
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: don't think you win this game by kicking field goals.
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: You know, no, you've got to be. I think you
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: may have to be a little. I mean, I know
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: last week the aggression. bit Dave Canales because it wasn't
• 14:48
  Speaker 5: the right time to be aggressive, but in a game
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: like this against the Lions where you settle for a
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: field goal, they may come down and who knows, score
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: in four plays, you're going to.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: Have to be selectively aggressive in this game. It works
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: both ways.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: I was talking about making the Lions kick field goals,
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: but to your point, it works both ways. And I
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: do believe that everybody's comparing it to the Rams game
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: last year. And because banged up underdogs feels like the
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: sky is falling. You lost the week before and it
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: was kind of ugly, right? It was the Niners loss.
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: 20-9 last year before the Rams game. In that Rams game,
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: what did we do on fourth down? We didn't just
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: go for it and convert. We dropped two bums on
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: fourth and short and got touchdowns out of them. So
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying we need to do that. But to
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: your point, Bone, we have been pretty bad on fourth
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: down this year. I think 25th in the league in
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: fourth down conversion percentage. If you miss your fourth down conversions,
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: and I agree with you, you probably have to gamble
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: in this game. The Browns, I didn't think we needed to.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: It would make more sense this week than last week.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: In this week, I think you're going to have to.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: You've got to get them. Because if you don't and
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: give this offense a short field, like same thing with turnovers.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: The Bears game, Bone, we got stopped on downs and
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: TMAC fumbled the ball.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: And you looked up and a.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: Game that was a one-possession game back and forth was
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: all of a sudden a three-possession game. And I think
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: this Lions is the same thing. If you turn it
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: over and give them short fields and you don't, score
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: on your possession or you don't get your fourth down
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: on it and give them a short field I think
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: all of a sudden the game could get away from
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: us you.
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: Know one concern I have Bryce has been very good
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: Mac um with the turnovers this year especially the unforced
• 16:32
  Speaker 5: silly ones where he just drops the ball or he's
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: running away and the ball pops out I do can
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: am a little concerned about this game with the way
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: the offensive line is performed Bryce sitting back there and
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: Hutchinson coming around the corner. That does concern me a
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: little bit in this game of Bryce protecting that football
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: because Hutchinson's.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Going to get there. And the ball's going to be wet.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: It's going to be rain.
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a concern of that ball slipping out of
• 16:58
  Speaker 5: Bryce's hands this week a little bit.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: That's a problem, I think. I mean, I think you just– yes, definitely,
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: rain conditions too. But I just think in general, just
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: the pressure on Bryce Young. Like, you can't throw from
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: your back. You can't– like, how many times does Bryce run–
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: from the Detroit pressure and throw the ball away. I mean,
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: he had six throwaways last week, at least because of pressure.
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: So I think, you know. You've got to find a
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: way to give him enough time, buy him some time.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: There's no doubt about it.
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: Maybe Stone Forsythe, if he has to play, just lays there,
• 17:29
  Speaker 5: lays down, and they have to go around him.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: Just lays there. You think Aiden Hutchinson can't get him?
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: Just lays there like he's on a couch. You think
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: a stone on the ground goes, stop Aiden Hutchinson? You've
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: got to double. You've got to double Aiden Hutchinson. The
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: thing with Hutchinson is they move him from side to side.
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: He has 10 pressures, Bone, or more on each side.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: through three games. So like they're, you're good.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: Both tackles. We'll see him.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: Although if it's stone, if Freeland can't play, he may just,
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: they may just say, you're going to hang out with
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: that dude all day, you know? So, but anyway, it's
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: going to be, I think they like moving around too.
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: Cause you don't know where he is. It's harder to
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: plan for, Hey, we're going to double them. We're going
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: to chip on them. A type thing. This texter says
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: all this hype about the passing games, the rain could
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: turn it into a run fest and, Yeah, that is
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: the one unknown, Boney, is how much does that affect?
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: Because you would think both passing games can have success.
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: How much does the weather affect it? Selfishly, I'm just
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: worried about my walk back to the station on Sunday night, Boney,
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: when it ended in the rain.
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: Someone on the text line called and said they're worried
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: about the tight end, Sam LaPorca. Okay, that's not his name.
• 18:34
  Speaker 5: It's Sam LaPorta, not Sam LaPorca. LaPorca sounds like something
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: Matt called Fitty in the last segment.
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: Why didn't I think of that? Larry LaPorca hangs out
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: with Tommy Toughass on the weekends.
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: Oh, man.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Oh, boy.
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: When we come back, Lee Sterling, ParamountSports.com, gives his picks
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: of the week. And guess what, Mac? We're out of September.
• 18:57
  Speaker 5: It's Lee's Locktober. That's next. Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Bye.
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: Bye.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ. It's a fired up football Friday.
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: I think it's safe to say. I do think it
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: is safe to say on this radio show. And right now, Bone,
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: we got to figure out how to– we got the passion,
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: all right? We got to figure out how to put
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: some money in your pocket this weekend. And who better
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: to do that than Lee Sterling? It is Locktober time.
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: Lee Sterling went 10-3-1 for his clients. last week, and
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: that's the thing that has to be said. For us,
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: he kind of does bone a lot of the local games,
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: a lot of the games he knows we're interested in,
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: Panther game every week. It's not like those are the
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: ones he believes so strongly in that he's given them
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: out to his clients. So you really got to be
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: a client of Lee's and see those picks. And those
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: are the ones that, you know, his clients are, are,
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: are loving him for, but we get them every week,
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: games of interest. And we got Lee Sterling back from
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: paramount sports, paramount sports.com to break down some of these games.
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: And he also wants to let you know, he's got
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: the game of the week. It's state Louisville. He's going
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: to let you know how to get that one. Lee,
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: what's happening, man. How you feeling this week?
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: Great. I mean, when, when, Cleveland comes through for you
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: on a Thursday night. You know you're feeling good. How
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: great is it to see Aaron Rodgers fighting with another coach,
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: and he didn't see that reunion blowing.
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: Up, huh?
• 20:47
  Speaker 5: I can't believe he was cranky last night. I can't
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: believe Aaron Rodgers. He must have been past his bedtime,
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: I guess.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: That's like the couple, Lee, that gets back together and
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: all their friends know, oh, they're going to be screaming
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: at each other in no time. you know that's right
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: that's what that is right.
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: There two halves last night i mean if i watch
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: it i mean looked great in the first half he
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: had two two incompletions and both were drops and one
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: should have been an interference and then on the second
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: half you're like what happened to the first half i
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: mean he somewhat you know pulled it together on the
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: last drive and almost fumbled it away but Bottom line
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: is Cleveland, if they can just be a little more
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: disciplined and Watson plays like he played in the first half,
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: Look out. I mean, they could be fighting for a
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: playoff position.
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: Lord knows we learned last week that they are no joke,
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: and they validated that last night. All right, let's talk
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: about some of these games. So Miami-Clemson is one we're
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: going to talk a ton about today. We've talked a
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: ton about this week. Everybody's kind of trying to figure out,
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: will Clemson have this inspired effort where they make the
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: game close? Hell, Dabo himself said this game's coming down
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: to the last play. Well, Vegas doesn't think so. Clemson
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: is a 16.5-point dog. What do you think about this
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: point spread?
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: Well, I think weather is going to be a huge
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: factor here. Used to be Miami, you know, practiced outside,
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: didn't have an indoor practice facility. They were great in
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: bad weather, but they rarely go outside now anymore. And
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: bottom line here is, you know, if it's raining sideways and,
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: you know, the forecast still doesn't look great, then it's
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: possible that it could be close. But if it's not
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: pouring sideways, I think Clemson's in real trouble here. I mean,
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: you have a quarterback to beat Miami. You have to
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: have a dual-play quarterback. Reynolds is a runner, but clearly
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: not an accomplished passer. So right now, the forecast I'm
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: looking at actually looks pretty good, just 10% to 20%
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: chance of rain. And if that's the case here, I mean,
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: Miami's combination here, Mensa to Tony, is almost unstoppable. A
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: couple changes, they're going to bring in Ben Congdon. Everyone
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: thought it was going to be Jackson Cantwell, the all-everything freshman,
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: number one player in the country. He's still coming along.
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: He's the backup of both tackles, but they had a
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: real problem at left guard. So bring in the true freshman,
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: Ben Congdon. He's 6'6, 330, and he plays nasty. So
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: I think it spells trouble here for Clemson. Give them credit.
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: They turned it around a little bit the last couple
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: weeks and won games, but Miami's a different monster. Sometimes
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: you've got to lay it if you want to play it. Miami, 41-17.
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: Notre Dame and Chapel Hill to take on the Tar Heels.
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: They come in as 21-and-a-half-point favorites on the road. What's
• 23:41
  Speaker 5: the right side in this matchup?
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: Notre Dame has some weaknesses. I mean, their offensive line–
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: doesn't look great. Running back position, a couple steps down,
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: losing their top two guys in the first round of
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: the draft, and three of their touchdowns so far were
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: on special teams and defense, so kind of has inflated
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: the scores here. I think North Carolina's defense is going
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: to keep them in the game here. I just think
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: this line is inflated here, and I think defense is
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: going to be a low-scoring game. I think Notre Dame
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: wins 26-13, but Three touchdowns, I think it's too much.
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: There we go, Heels fans. We got a cover, baby.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: Was I too excited about the cover, Boat?
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: Oh, man.
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: You are right, though, about that offense for Notre Dame,
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: the run game. There's not a question in the world
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: about that defense, though, I don't think. All right, let's go.
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: Lee Sterling is with us. Paramount Sports. ParamountSports.com is where
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: you find his picks. He's going to tell you in
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: a few minutes how to get all his picks here
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: as we start Locked Over, but also... His game of
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: the week, Louisville, NC State, Wake Forest. This team is
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: really whether it was Lee, the way they kind of,
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: you know, hung in and competed against Miami or the
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: way they outright beat Louisville. They're earning a lot of
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: respect the last couple of weeks. Now, you know, there
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: are expectations that they put it on Stanford. They're 12
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: and a half point favorites tomorrow. What do you think?
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: Got to get Joey Galloway on. He said, you know,
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: Blake Forrest wasn't a good win for Miami. So I
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: think most people would differ now. And Jake Dickard, how
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: good has he done? Just 12-5 straight up under his control. Stanford,
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: just this team, they start off okay for about a
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: quarter against Miami. Since then, horrible. And at Duke, they
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: just couldn't even compete here. Going east, they might as
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: well keep going to Europe. on one of their semesters
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: abroad here. Wake Forest, big, 35-14.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: That's a good one. The kids keep traveling. Hit the
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: pond and keep on going. NFL, Saints, and Falcons.
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: That's the Monday night game, and that's the 20th anniversary
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: game of the Steve Gleason moment, the Hurricane Katrina return
• 25:58
  Speaker 5: to the Superdome. A lot of emotions in that building, Lee.
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: Saints favored by 2.5. What's the right side here?
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: These two teams, I think we're going to be there
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: in the end. I think it's going to be just
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: like last year. We're going to have three teams slugging
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: it out here. I think since Atlanta got their quarterback,
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: this shift team just looks like a different team. Defense
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: is playing with an edge. You know, they might get
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: a couple, you know, late hits here, but they like
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: to send a message here. Kevin Stefanski feels good about
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: what he's got going on and, New Orleans, you know,
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: inexplicably just let that lead slip away. I think this
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: is one of those games that comes down to the
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: last drive here. I think you take any points you
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: can get here. I think the wrong team's favorite. I
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: think Atlanta moved to 2-2 when everyone had written them
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: off 26-24.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Man, that would be very NFC South-y, though.
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean? That would bring the pack
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: all together even more there. All right, Lee, now we've
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: got to talk about the Panther game. And, my Lord,
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: I know you've been thinking about this, handicapping this game.
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: The injuries for the Panthers, I mean, have just been brutal.
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: They really have. And this week we get the news that,
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: you know, J.C. Horn, Mike Jackson, starting corners and good
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: ones are out now for, you know, at least six
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: to eight weeks or so. So they won't play against
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: this high powered offense. What do you think? Lions coming
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: in here Sunday night, three and a half point favorites.
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: A lot of Panther fans are fearing that they cover
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: that spread and then some.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: How do you feel about this?
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: It's going to be high scoring. Get to your seat early,
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: except for going out to the restroom at halftime. Get
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: all your food and get ready to go before the game.
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: You don't want to miss a series here. Two high-powered
• 27:44
  Speaker 4: offenses here against two defenses. that we know. I mean,
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: you think Carolina's in trouble in the secondary. Detroit's lost
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: both of their safeties. They're best cornerback by far. He's
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: accused of a crime and they had to cut him loose.
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: So receivers are going to be running free. And I
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: just think right now that Bryce Young is just maybe
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: a little bit hotter. Number one in passing yards, 939.
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: The key to this game Run the football. Keep that
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: Detroit offense, you know, off the field here. Let's get
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: some 12, 14, 16 play drives. You want to score,
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: but maybe sometimes not too quick here in the shootout.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: for another rookie favorite, Carolina, straight up 38-35.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: Oh!
• 28:31

• 28:42
  Speaker 2: surprise from Lee. I'll tell you this.

• 28:47
  Speaker 3: we keep bringing up is the Rams regular season game
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: last year.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: A lot of guys out. It felt like this, and

  Speaker 2: the Panthers rose up. All right.
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: So let everybody know, now that everybody fully loves Lee,
• 28:58

  Speaker 5: Lee, before you go, it's funny you mentioned relationships. We

  Speaker 5: had a massive show fight earlier today. I'd like to
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: bring it up because I wasn't involved in it. I'm
• 30:42
  Speaker 5: not going to yell at Lee, though. Mac and Finney
• 30:45
  Speaker 5: got in a huge fight here. Can you guys explain
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: what the problem was here, Lee?
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: Finney thinks this is so funny. Finney was giving me
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: a hard time for taking my wife out tomorrow night
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: for dinner.
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: It's her birthday. So I got to do it, right?
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: I got to do it. I got to hit record
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: on the games.
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: But Fitty now finds it so funny that your advice
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: is forget about the relationships, man. This is football time,
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: you know? But I'm not going to yell at you
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: like I did Fitty Lee, you know?
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: Okay, so here's what you do. Here's what you do, Chris.
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: See what kind of salesman you are, all right? So
• 31:17
  Speaker 4: one time we had an anniversary and there was something
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: going on. It was actually July 3rd, but something was
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: going on And I told her, honey, you don't want
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: to go out on a Saturday and it can be crazy.
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: Let's go out like on a Tuesday or Wednesday because
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: that way I found some special, some really high-end restaurant.
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: It's all about the sales job.
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: Man, you're good. Lee, you're good. You're smooth. You're smooth, man.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: All right. All right, Lee. appreciate you brother be good.
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: All right there you go there you go it's almost
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: like we knew what happened this morning the look on
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: fitty's face the feeling of validation that fitty just got
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: right there i.
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: Gotta tell you i've seen you upset and mad before
• 32:02
  Speaker 5: that's that might be a top five time today and
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: i wasn't involved so i could analyze it a little
• 32:09
  Speaker 5: better sometimes i'm on that side where i gotta like
• 32:12
  Speaker 5: i don't really understand maybe i'm trying to fight back
• 32:14
  Speaker 5: i was just A witness. Yeah, that's a top five
• 32:18
  Speaker 5: Mac angry moment there this morning. You were going to
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: a well of terms. Well, once I realized I was
• 32:25
  Speaker 5: in deep, I just hammed it up good.
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: I've got the audio ready to go, by the way.
• 32:28
  Speaker 6: Whenever you want to replay and hear how much of
• 32:30
  Speaker 6: an ass you really were.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: We're ready back there.
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: We should do that when we come back, maybe. I
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: stand by it. I stand by it. I stand by
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: my behavior.
• 32:38
  Speaker 6: You literally said on the radio, you hope that this
• 32:40
  Speaker 6: girl leaves my bald ass and you're proud of it?
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: Kind of. Kind of.
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: A texter says, I noticed Mac did not scream Tommy
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: Toughass at Lee Sterling.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: Got to be nicer to Lee. Got to be nicer
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: to Lee there. All right. Do we got to get
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: a Fiddy update in here real quick? If he's able
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: to do it.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: What happened to the poor guy today? What she got
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: over there.
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: What she got. Oh, he was asking for it. That's
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: what he wanted. He wanted to be beat down. What
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: do you got over there, Fit?
• 33:11
  Speaker 6: Fiddy.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: Thank you, Mac.
• 33:21
  Speaker 6: This is Tommy Toughass reporting from the WFNZ news desk.
• 33:26
  Speaker 6: This update brought to you by the H & S
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: Roofing and Gutter Company.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: I'm holding his hand during this update.
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: If something doesn't look right with your roof or your gutters,
• 33:33
  Speaker 6: give them a call.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: They'll give you a free estimate.
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: That phone number is 704-334-9934.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: 704-334-9934. 704-334-9934.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: Two big results last night in the sports world.
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: Mac?
• 33:52
  Speaker 6: We had the Browns winning on Thursday night football. They
• 33:55
  Speaker 6: beat the Steelers. The Braves, they advanced to the NLDS.
• 34:00
  Speaker 6: They'll take on the Dodgers starting on Saturday. Can you
• 34:04
  Speaker 6: tell me what happened in the WNBA and our girl,
• 34:08
  Speaker 6: Kaitlyn Clark?
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: Why is everybody giving me crap here, man?
• 34:11
  Speaker 6: No mention of her through the first hour and 40
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: minutes of the show.
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: I have to deal with texters. I have to deal
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: with texters. The fever. You know where the fever screwed themselves, Boone?
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: is when they lost, they were in the 4-5 game spot,
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: they dropped down to the sixth seed, and then they
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: had to play.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: The Aces round one. They're not ready to beat a
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: team like the Aces, man. It sucks.
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: It's bad for the WNBA. You no longer have a fever.
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: The WNBA would be much better off with the fever advancing,
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: you know?
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: Yes, sir.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: I think we found something Bo does not have an
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: opinion on.
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: Anyway, let's move along here, y'all.
• 34:47
  Speaker 5: When we come back, does anyone think this could be
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: the weekend that State or South Carolina rises up in
• 34:55
  Speaker 5: response to adversity with a big win? Speaking of adversity,
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: I do believe next segment we're going to play the
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: show adversity of Max Teardown of one. Phinney Alwich is
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: more well on Sports Radio 92.7 WFNZ.
• 35:44
  Speaker 7: When it's live in there, man, there isn't a better
• 35:46
  Speaker 7: place than college football. And that's the one thing. I
• 35:49
  Speaker 7: know it matters who we're playing and how we play
• 35:52
  Speaker 7: and all that. But coming in with that intensity, it
• 35:54
  Speaker 7: carries through any difficult moments in the game and help
• 35:57
  Speaker 7: us flip the momentum back. Those kind of 12-man opportunities
• 36:02
  Speaker 7: you have, there are a few. You get seven here
• 36:04
  Speaker 7: at home. Against this team, with the offense they have,
• 36:08
  Speaker 7: it would be a huge advantage for us.
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: Dave Dorn asking for the fans to bring it tomorrow.
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: 330 kick, Carter Finley. Louisville comes in. Lincoln Keenholz, the
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: star quarterback for Louisville, is questionable. Some sort of leg
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: injury that you would need to go to the CIA
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: headquarters to find out exactly what it is. But he
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: was limping. You could tell there's a leg injury, and
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: he runs a ton. And so you wonder how much
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: it will affect him. I'd be shocked if he doesn't
• 36:36
  Speaker 3: play bone. He seems like a Baker Mayfield type. Like,
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: I could literally be holding one leg in my left
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: arm and be playing in a football game.
• 36:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think also circumstances may determine, too. him going
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: out there. If they would have beaten SMU and they
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: only had one loss, you know, you could say, all right, well,
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: maybe they can maybe afford another one, but I think
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: they've got two losses already. They're on that bubble of
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: the playoffs already, Mac, where they may not make it,
• 37:03
  Speaker 5: especially from the ACC.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: So this might be a game where... All the games
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: are kind of must-wins now for Louisville, right?
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: They're playoff locks. They might not make it anyway, but still, yeah.
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: You can't lose three games and get in the playoff
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: unless you play in the SEC.
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: There you go. Just point blank, period.
• 37:19
  Speaker 5: They may just cancel the season if they lose this
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: game and say, you've got three losses, you're in the ACC,
• 37:24
  Speaker 5: it's time to just pack it up.
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: And that's what I hate about the spot State's in.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: Because the question I want to ask now is, I
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: find NC State and South Carolina kind of comparable this weekend.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: They are school's bone that we have seen.
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: Moments in recent history where, you know, they've taken some beatings,
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: they've had some rough moments, and they rise up. We've seen, hell,
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: NC State did it last year against Georgia Tech. No
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: one saw that coming. Beat the brakes off them. And
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: you go to South Carolina, Lord knows you've seen those moments, Bone,
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: where Shane Beamer in the past When you're counting them
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: out and they rise up and get big wins. So
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: my question is, do we think, do Wolfpack fans and
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: Gamecock fans, does anybody think one of these two teams
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: is going to have those rise up and, oh man,
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: look at the pack. Oh man, look at the Gamecocks moments.
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: It is a little different. The pack is a four
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: and a half point dog at home to Louisville and
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: South Carolina, believe it or not. is a two-and-a-half-point favorite
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: over Kentucky. Do you think either team rises up, Bone?
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: I think both win.
• 38:32
  Speaker 4: Really?
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: Dang!
• 38:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, my gut feel on South Carolina is I think
• 38:38
  Speaker 5: we're going to see the story of their backs are
• 38:40
  Speaker 5: against the wall. Sometimes when Beamer's at his lowest, they
• 38:44
  Speaker 5: figure out a way to get a win like this.
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: But the problem I think is going to be I
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: think the win will mean a lot, and they'll get
• 38:50
  Speaker 5: an emotional Beamer. But yes, this is the SEC. So
• 38:54
  Speaker 5: what's going to happen next week? They go on the
• 38:56
  Speaker 5: road to Florida, and they're going to probably have it
• 38:59
  Speaker 5: put on them, and we're going to have to reset
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: the whole thing again. So I do think they find
• 39:03
  Speaker 5: a way to beat Kentucky. Kentucky Mac is... is improving,
• 39:08
  Speaker 5: but I don't think there's some foe that can't be beaten.
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: I think the Gamecocks do get a win, and they
• 39:13
  Speaker 5: got some problems down the line. Doesn't mean I think
• 39:16
  Speaker 5: they should save Beamer, but I think for this week,
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: he saves himself. But I do think the Gamecocks win.
• 39:21
  Speaker 5: I think this is a spot for State to sort
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: of exercise the demons on week zero of the Vanderbilt game.
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: I think this is a spot much like last year,
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: Virginia high scoring back and forth game.
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: They won.
• 39:34
  Speaker 5: They beat Georgia tech when they were number eight last year,
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: last year, they rose to the occasion against the better
• 39:40
  Speaker 5: teams in the, in the ACC in these spots.
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: I think the pack does it tomorrow too. I, um, uh, interesting.
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: Interesting. I, uh, I'm with you on the Gamecocks, but
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: keep in mind I'm the same dude that tried to
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: tell all y'all Gamecock fans, hey, y'all going to fight
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: to the very final minute against Alabama. And I believe, Bone,
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: it was just a few minutes, and it looked like
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: they weren't fighting. But I don't think Kentucky is all
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: that everybody thinks they are. Their big win is against
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: a Texas A & M team that I don't think
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: is any good. So I think people are overvaluing the
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: Texas A & M win. I would also point out
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: that in that game, Texas A & M still ran
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: for 186 yards, and 80-something of it was Marcel Reed.
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: I think Sellers could get loose. The Gamecock run game bone,
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: as quiet as it's been kept, because Sellers hasn't been
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: good and the defense has had issues, the Gamecock run game...
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: immensely improved their offensive line immensely improved so i could
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: see that.
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: Our top 10 in the country and rushed yards per
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: game ridiculously improved 59th against the run and maybe with
• 40:41
  Speaker 5: kentucky not being good against the run your offensive line
• 40:44
  Speaker 5: improved let's limit sellers throws maybe as much as possible
• 40:48
  Speaker 5: and just run.
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: The hell out of this thing with fuller let sellers
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: run it.
• 40:51
  Speaker 3: Man run that zone read take the throws away a
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: little bit man let him just run the hell out
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: of it I so I'm with you 100 percent on
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: that on the Gamecocks. Wolfpack Mac can't get down with
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: to get down here, though. I can and I can't.
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: I'm not even sure what that means, but I just
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: can't do it for Wolfpack Mac. And here's the thing.
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: I get what you're saying. We saw it last year
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: against Georgia Tech. It often comes bone and don't, don't
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: get it twisted. NC state vibes still feel off. I
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: know Dave Dorn tried to tell everybody at the press
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: conference on his way out. You know, we won the game,
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: but app state felt like, Oh my God, you guys
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: blew a 17 point lead and lost a Vandy in
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: hideous fashion. And you let app state score three straight touchdowns.
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: Come back for 21.
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: Like it felt like it was more negative than positive
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: to me against app state for NC state. Certainly not
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: for app. And then I, so I throw in this one.
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: It's what you said about Louisville. If Louisville won last week, Bone,
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: I could see them come in here feeling like their
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: bleep don't stink. They beat SMU. They beat Wake. They've
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: righted the ship after the Mississippi loss. Louisville is going
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: to come in here for blood. And I find it
• 41:54
  Speaker 3: really hard to believe that Louisville's run game gets shut
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: down again like it did last week by the Wake defense.
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: Those two, the two Brown brothers... Keen holes, again, I
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: just think he's tough as nails. I think he'll be
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: out there dragging that leg around and making plays.
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: They're a big play team, too.
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: I worry about State's lack of pass rush and giving
• 42:14
  Speaker 3: up big plays to Trey Richardson down the field. I
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: can't do it with State. But if you're a State fan,
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: you probably don't want me to pick. You know what
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: I mean? This is the best news for all involved,
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: I guess. You're probably good. But that Louisville need it
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: coming off a loss factor. State usually needs to catch
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: a team napping in a spot like this. I don't
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: think Louisville's napping.
• 42:36
  Speaker 5: This is a kind of gotta-have-it game for NC State.
• 42:39
  Speaker 5: They lose this, they go 2-3. Wake comes in next week.
• 42:44
  Speaker 5: They do have Stanford and Cal after that, but I'm
• 42:47
  Speaker 5: not saying they can't still get to a bowl game, but.
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: I don't know, man. That's what I was going to say.
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: Got to have it for what? I was watching ACC Network.
• 42:54
  Speaker 3: They said this is a playoff elimination game or a
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: conference championship elimination game. I said, we really talking about
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: that with State? We really talking that way?
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: I meant to get to their level that they normally
• 43:05
  Speaker 5: get to, that 8-9 win range. They go 2-3. It's
• 43:09
  Speaker 5: starting to be like they may make a bowl game,
• 43:11
  Speaker 5: but not much more than that. I can't imagine the
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: Wolfpack losing a got-to-have-it game.
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: Can anybody?
• 43:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: Well, Pac-Mac's skeptical, Bone. A little skeptical. I trust my Pac.
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: People are asking. Well, Pac-Bone is a new twist, man.
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: I'm here for it, though, baby.
• 43:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: I'm here.
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: My fear is that the Pac lose this game and wake.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: They lose back-to-back home games. That's my fear for the Pac. People,
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: Doug is so negative, the state fan. Double-digit loss to Louisville,
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: he says. I think it's going to be a fun game,
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: to be honest.
• 43:46
  Speaker 5: I think it's going to be very similar to that
• 43:48
  Speaker 5: Virginia game last year that NC State pulled out.
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: I think it'll be a good game. C.J.
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: Bailey, quiet as has been kept, been playing good ball lately.
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: I know he had the brain-dead moment, but he's been
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: playing good ball lately. I love Preston Douglas at tight end.
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: Keenan Jackson's really developed into the No.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: 1 receiver.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: I don't think they get blown out. I'm not saying
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: all that, Bone. It's just Louisville really needs it.
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: Got to have it. Louisville got to have it.
• 44:09
  Speaker 4: It's true.
• 44:09
  Speaker 3: All right, people are asking— People are asking to hear
• 44:14
  Speaker 3: the audio of me screaming.
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: Gotta have it. Are we playing this now?
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: I feel like when I listen back to myself, I'm
• 44:20
  Speaker 3: going to be embarrassed.
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: This is a bad look. This is.
• 44:25
  Speaker 5: Was it entertaining, though? Yeah, I wasn't involved in it.
• 44:29
  Speaker 5: Sometimes you also yell... Sometimes I'm collateral damage where I
• 44:33
  Speaker 5: get yelled at, too.
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: I'd say out of this one, though. I felt good
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: about things. Oh, you ran out. You ran out like
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: a kid whose parents were arguing.
• 44:38
  Speaker 5: By the way, for context here, this took place during
• 44:43
  Speaker 5: the Couch Potato Guide, your guide to TV on sports
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: this weekend. A segment that I like to think back,
• 44:48
  Speaker 5: I put a lot into. I feel like we do
• 44:51
  Speaker 5: well for that segment. We lost control of the Couch
• 44:53
  Speaker 5: Potato Guide. Out of respect for you, we were done
• 44:55
  Speaker 5: with the guide. I waited for the guide to be over.
• 44:56
  Speaker 5: The music was still going, though.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: It was. It was.
• 44:58
  Speaker 3: All right, so let's hear this. Fitty making a comment.
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: Was it on the air or off the air, Fitty?
• 45:04
  Speaker 6: I called you a not football guy on the air.
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: Because I said I'm taking my wife of 20-plus years
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: out to dinner for her birthday.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: And we'll record the second half to the 3.30 games.
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: And Fitty in the troll fashion. I feel like Fitty
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: did ask for this, though, Bone. I feel like he
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: wanted this. So here's what happened. Finney, I want to
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: explore this conversation a little more. Are you saying that
• 45:26
  Speaker 3: your lady does not mean enough to you that at
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: some point you would, you know, record some college football
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: games and take her out to dinner?
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: Is that what you're trying to tell me?
• 45:38
  Speaker 6: That's not what I'm saying at all, Mac. She just
• 45:41
  Speaker 6: does a great job of finding things to do on Saturdays.
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: So does my wife.
• 45:45
  Speaker 6: So I can enjoy my football Saturdays.
• 45:47
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you've noticed.
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: Mrs.
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: Mac lets me sit there for 12 hours and do
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: nothing every effing Saturday.
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: That's because she doesn't want to spend time with you. Oh,
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: shut the bleep up. There is no queen like Mrs.
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: Mac.
• 45:59
  Speaker 3: Everybody finds yourself a Mrs. Mac, so shut the bleep up. But, like,
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: just quit being full of crap because quit being full
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: of crap right now. You are finally in a loving relationship,
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: so stop acting like an immature jackass for a change.
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: Seriously. Please.
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: If not, I'm sending this immature jackass tape to your
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: sweetheart and telling her this is who you're marrying. So
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: tell me, are you playing an immature jackass on the radio,
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: or you're really a jackass that she should leave right now?
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: That's what I want to know.
• 46:31
  Speaker 5: I don't want to interrupt you, but I think Matt
• 46:33
  Speaker 5: thinks you're a jackass.
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: Because if you aren't going to take her out for
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: her birthday, if you're together for 20-something years, then she
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: ought to run from your bald ass.
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: I actually feel good about that.
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: Really?
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I feel good about that.
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: First of all, Bone, little troll over there. Little trollster.
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: He was asking for it. He wanted it. He wanted that.
• 46:57
  Speaker 3: He's proud of himself. Secondly, what I am telling him
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: is good advice.
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: You know that. Now, did I need to scream at
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: him in such emphatic fashion? Maybe not. But it's a
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: radio show, baby. It just kept going and going. That's
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: the thing that was funny about it. Don't make me
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: yell at you, bro! Don't make me yell at you!
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: That would never happen. I'm kidding.
• 47:14
  Speaker 5: Also, the music was ridiculous underneath it. It is pretty silly.
• 47:17
  Speaker 5: That's what I was laughing at. It is pretty silly
• 47:19
  Speaker 5: at the NFL. It's like we're on a halftime set.
• 47:21
  Speaker 5: This dude said, Mac, you proud of yourself for that?
• 47:23
  Speaker 5: You sound like an idiot.
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: Peaceful coffee, though, agrees with me, since I never thought
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: I'd agree with Mac on anything. It's tough love, Bone.
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: It's tough love. Plus, his trolling got to me. When
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: it happens to the best of us.
• 47:34
  Speaker 5: When we come back, for all the gloomy and doom,
• 47:37
  Speaker 5: why is it only a three-and-a-half point spread for the
• 47:39
  Speaker 5: Panthers on Sunday? Do we think that the 2025 Rams game,
• 47:45
  Speaker 5: do those comparisons work?
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: Sports Radio, 92.7 WFNZ.
