- 0:48Speaker 1: Yo sup, who do you think is going to win this game?
- 0:55Speaker 2: I like the Browns man, I like that pick.
- 0:57Speaker 2: I like the Browns defense best defense in the playoffs okay well, they have the most guys in IR all year.
- 1:11Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, but they've been a really come together team of nobodies.
- 1:18Speaker 1: They have a couple guys and then they get a guy like Joe Flacco off the streets right kids, five kids his kids, and now he's going to play the.
- 1:31Speaker 2: NFL playoffs.
- 1:32Speaker 1: Man, it's incredible pretty sure flack.
- 1:34Speaker 2: Now he's got two picks two people picking him yeah.
- 1:39Speaker 2: I think it's more about, you know, the defense against an inexperienced quarterback.
- 1:44Speaker 2: I don't like picking against D'Amico Ryan's man I really like him but I think the Browns are going to win that one okay, I'm going against you, man.
- 1:56Speaker 1: I'm going with the home team, I'm going with CJ Stroud, man yeah and D'Amico Ryan's man.
- 2:01Speaker 1: I think the young guy gets it done.
- 2:02Speaker 1: I think that defense will get to Flacco at home, you know he's yeah, he's not a mobile guy.
- 2:10Speaker 2: He never was gotta get pressure to him.
- 2:12Speaker 1: Now he's old gotta get confused him.
- 2:14Speaker 1: I don't care what you do get to him.
- 2:17Speaker 1: I think Stroud hit some big throws.
- 2:20Speaker 2: Give me the Texans in Houston someone of an upset, even though they're uh, they're hosting, you know.
- 2:29Speaker 1: I know I'm taking them.
- 2:30Speaker 1: And then we go to Kansas City.
- 2:33Speaker 1: Man, the Dolphins, my Dolphins, man killer KC.
- 2:39Speaker 1: You know, we thought, we thought we had we thought we had the division all year long gonna be cold.
- 2:44Speaker 1: It's gonna be really cold like 13 frigid 13 degrees.
- 2:49Speaker 1: My friend yep.

- 3:00Speaker 2: The first game, brown I'm picking.
- 3:03Speaker 1: I'm using his picks these are all his picks.
- 3:06Speaker 2: I'm not picking on my.
- 3:07Speaker 1: Obviously that's good yeah okay, so you got Browns.
- 3:11Speaker 2: You're gonna go with the really yeah neither one of us think that that Kansas City's they're a little bit washed man, that's what he, the way he put the kids are saying they're washed, washed.
- 3:24Speaker 2: Yeah well, no receivers, hmm this is a tough one.
- 3:32Speaker 2: Yeah, I know you're a Dolphins fan, right, you're not gonna be able to look at it.
- 3:36Speaker 2: I mean I don't neutral well.
- 3:40Speaker 1: I mean, I can, and I can pick the cheese, you think?
- 3:43Speaker 2: you can, I but are you really being neutral, or you just, you know, expecting the dolphins to be the dolphins, so to speak, the way you're talking about.
- 3:52Speaker 1: I'm not looking at it neutral, like right, okay, I get that, right, right.
- 3:57Speaker 1: I mean, will the chiefs be able to do it at home?
- 3:59Speaker 1: I think the fact that it's a night game at home but both teams have to play on it, you know, oh man, it's really gonna the health of the dolphins concerns me and that's why I'm picking the chiefs, hmm, but you see, this hat.
- 4:17Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 4:17Speaker 1: I'm just not gonna Right.
- 4:20Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I'm pay at you, man.
- 4:22Speaker 1: Ah, justin said it was 49ers in the running game might win it for him in most certain plays.
- 4:29Speaker 1: And you have Howard play, you know is waddle gonna play.
- 4:37Speaker 2: I don't.
- 4:37Speaker 2: I don't think, I don't think Howard is as big of a loss as Waddle if they, if neither one, plays.
- 4:42Speaker 2: I mean, there's not a.
- 4:46Speaker 2: You find a way to cover Kelsey and that's it.
- 4:49Speaker 2: That's it.
- 4:50Speaker 2: Nobody else is consistent for the chiefs.
- 4:53Speaker 1: Well, that little dude gonna be a little running back.
- 4:56Speaker 2: They got easy.
- 4:57Speaker 2: He's very power.
- 4:58Speaker 2: It's gonna be a ugly game.
- 4:59Speaker 1: It's gonna come down to who makes the mistake, who can get the turnover, who can get the big play.
- 5:04Speaker 1: You know what?
- 5:05Speaker 1: We might have to come back to that one, it's gonna be cold.
- 5:07Speaker 1: You might have to come back to that one.
- 5:09Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Sunday.
- 5:13Speaker 1: Afc East champion bills.
- 5:17Speaker 1: Damn it, we're gonna be hosting the Steelers, it's gonna be even colder up there, isn't it yeah?
- 5:23Speaker 1: Freaking blizzard.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Jesus man Um, what gives?
- 5:29Speaker 1: They're not paying.
- 5:31Speaker 1: No, no, they beat him.
- 5:33Speaker 1: I think last season first game of the year, adding in Buffalo.
- 5:37Speaker 2: Yeah, first game of the year.
- 5:38Speaker 2: What month was that?
- 5:40Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I think the bills have got it rolling.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Now get by that game last week.
- 5:46Speaker 1: You know I Mean it's gonna be hard to go into Buffalo and beat him and they're gonna have a home game next week if they win this one.
- 5:56Speaker 2: So If it was Derek Henry and not Najee Harris, I Would.
- 6:03Speaker 2: I would say the Steelers see it's gonna be me, I mean, it's Mason Rudolph, that's who.
- 6:07Speaker 1: but they actually did.
- 6:08Speaker 1: It doesn't matter, they've actually been actually those conditioners have been a lot better with him.
- 6:13Speaker 2: Those conditions, it's.
- 6:14Speaker 2: It's all about your running game, right.
- 6:16Speaker 1: And I mean I Would not be surprised if the Steelers did this.
- 6:20Speaker 1: I would not be.
- 6:21Speaker 1: They hit their tough, they're tough.
- 6:23Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't either, but I'm in those kind of games in the weather, but hell no.
- 6:27Speaker 1: No no, that's not a tough pick.
- 6:30Speaker 1: If you're all right, let's go to a game that might be tough to pick, especially because Never know what the Cowboys are gonna do there.
- 6:39Speaker 1: The pretty much the Dolphins of the NFC in terms of starting out fast and then just dropping off a cliff every year, like like right on schedule, and it could happen right here for them.
- 6:54Speaker 1: But I am going to pick the Dolphins here.
- 6:56Speaker 1: I mean the Cowboys here, because you know they've been better at home all year.
- 7:01Speaker 1: I know that I think it's gonna be high scoring game, though I think Green Bay's gonna be a score at first on On Dan Quinn.
- 7:11Speaker 1: I think that matchup.
- 7:12Speaker 1: Green Bay's had it rolling, but I think Dax gonna play good, dolphins is gonna respond and Win in a shootout and then they look.
- 7:24Speaker 1: So I got the Cowboys in the Super Bowl.
- 7:26Speaker 1: Still it's the Dolphins.
- 7:28Speaker 1: Mine to go back to that Dolphins Chiefs game.
- 7:32Speaker 1: This game like what do you think?
- 7:35Speaker 2: on paper.
- 7:36Speaker 2: It shouldn't be close, man, the Cowboys should.
- 7:38Speaker 2: Should run them out of Justin's.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Pick them out of the stadium Packers right.
- 7:43Speaker 2: I think If there's one team that could blow it, it's the Cowboys.
- 7:47Speaker 2: I don't think they're going to yeah, okay, I don't I just I don't think that that Green Bay has enough.
- 7:54Speaker 2: I think that this will be the one game that the Cowboys look really good in the playoffs.
- 7:59Speaker 1: I.
- 8:00Speaker 2: Think they're blowing.
- 8:01Speaker 2: It is coming later.
- 8:02Speaker 2: Okay, all right, but man, let me add dude, yeah, georgia, or George Green Bay went in there and beat Dallas, right, they're old coach, old McCarthy got him booted.
- 8:13Speaker 2: Oh, bella, check to Dallas, oh man, it's gonna.
- 8:17Speaker 1: Yeah, what happens that?
- 8:19Speaker 2: guy is McCarthy's Lose, billy and Jerry.
- 8:22Speaker 1: McCarthy's fired if he loses this game right.
- 8:25Speaker 2: You know, when the Super Bowl.
- 8:26Speaker 2: I think he's fired.
- 8:27Speaker 1: Wow, incredible.
- 8:28Speaker 1: All right, let's go to you Detroit, as the Rams are playing at the Lions.
- 8:37Speaker 1: This is gonna be a fun game.
- 8:40Speaker 2: D.
- 8:41Speaker 1: This is gonna be.
- 8:41Speaker 1: I can't really decide on this game.
- 8:44Speaker 1: I could see either team winning, I definitely.
- 8:50Speaker 2: When's the last time Detroit hosted a playoff game?
- 8:52Speaker 2: Was it 93?
- 8:53Speaker 1: It's been a long time man.
- 8:56Speaker 2: Was Barry playing.
- 8:59Speaker 1: It might have been.
- 9:00Speaker 2: We're gonna get the stat guy on that to find out here.
- 9:02Speaker 2: Come back to it.
- 9:03Speaker 1: Well, you know what is something that you're looking forward to in this game.
- 9:09Speaker 2: This game.
- 9:09Speaker 2: Yeah, like what do you see?
- 9:11Speaker 2: I like Gibbs man, I like the running back.
- 9:14Speaker 2: I think he started playing really well about mid-season and just getting better.
- 9:19Speaker 2: Everybody you know Detroit's a fun team.
- 9:23Speaker 2: I'm not a big Jared Goff fan at all, but yeah.
- 9:28Speaker 1: You like Man-Camble though.
- 9:31Speaker 2: Oh yeah, danny, danny, cam Cam.
- 9:35Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess I think they'll win.
- 9:36Speaker 2: You're right, it was 93.
- 9:38Speaker 2: Yeah, 93.
- 9:39Speaker 2: I think they'll win.
- 9:40Speaker 1: See the first time in that stadium, though.
- 9:43Speaker 2: Oh yeah, all right, so this is yeah.
- 9:46Speaker 1: It's a big event.
- 9:46Speaker 1: The Rams are sneaky man Right and they've been playing a lot better, and that's where I was going with it is they have a Super Bowl winning quarterback, yeah.
- 9:59Speaker 2: The guy who's playing in Detroit Playing really well Going back home.
- 10:04Speaker 1: This is going to be a really fun matchup here.
- 10:06Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a highly competitive game here, a highly emotional game.
- 10:10Speaker 1: Here.
- 10:10Speaker 1: You got the Detroit fans hosting a playoff games first time since the adults were kids that are now there, and then, the first time that the young adults have ever seen something like this.
- 10:24Speaker 1: And then you have the quarterback that everybody grew up watching coming back To end it for him, right?
- 10:31Speaker 2: I think I'm switching my pick dude, I think I might go Rams.
- 10:34Speaker 2: You picked it.
- 10:34Speaker 2: Oh wow, yeah, sorry, sorry, junior, I'll let him know.
- 10:39Speaker 1: Junior went with the Lions on this one, yeah.
- 10:41Speaker 2: I mean yeah, yeah, but I think I've been back and forth.
- 10:46Speaker 1: You know, at first I was like okay, I think you know the way the Rams have been playing right and Matt Stafford has been slinging that thing.
- 10:56Speaker 1: The young receivers yeah, you know that's, that's been a really lethal Combo.
- 11:04Speaker 1: But then I started thinking of that emotion.
- 11:08Speaker 2: You know that sounds like you're ready to make that Rams Brown Super Bowl pick.
- 11:13Speaker 1: Well, no, this year it's wide open, man, yeah, Honestly, I can't.
- 11:16Speaker 1: It's wide open.
- 11:18Speaker 1: I mean I could you can make a case for all the teams.
- 11:21Speaker 1: I mean it really it's wide open.
- 11:24Speaker 1: Other than the top two seeds, though.
- 11:26Speaker 1: I mean it seems pretty clear, hence that photo, why, and so like popular.
- 11:31Speaker 1: Well, the best two teams right now are the top one scenes, and when, in terms of like, yeah, I could I would not Like.
- 11:38Speaker 1: That's what it feels like.
- 11:39Speaker 1: It's going to be too obvious.
- 11:42Speaker 2: Right, so so you know it's not going to happen.
- 11:45Speaker 2: Yeah, right, right.
- 11:47Speaker 1: So in this game you're going with the Rams, I think I am.
- 11:50Speaker 2: I think I'm changing our pitch Because of the quarterback.
- 11:54Speaker 2: Yeah, I just, you're right, man, he's.
- 11:57Speaker 2: Stafford really has been playing, playing at a higher level the second half of the season this is a big game man for Detroit.
- 12:05Speaker 1: The fact that it's Stafford too.
- 12:07Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 12:07Speaker 1: It just makes it even bigger and I think, oh man.
- 12:14Speaker 2: I'm just not sold on golf.
- 12:16Speaker 1: I can't either, and they haven't really been playing good defense lately and I think I'm going with the Rams.
- 12:23Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 12:24Speaker 1: My heart was wanting to pick the Lions and I'm thinking, OK, they can get it done.
- 12:29Speaker 1: I really like Gibbs.
- 12:32Speaker 2: I like the whole team Right.
- 12:33Speaker 2: I don't dislike Jared Goff.
- 12:35Speaker 2: He just has a lot of Jimmy Garoppolo qualities of just not getting it done when he needs to.
- 12:40Speaker 2: He looks really good at some time yeah he really does, but then he's got time when he loses to the machine.
- 12:45Speaker 1: But what's it going to look like in the pressure cooker, staring Aaron Donald down?
- 12:53Speaker 2: I mean, that's you, everything about it.
- 12:55Speaker 1: You got two difference makers right there, if Stafford's on.
- 12:59Speaker 1: Oh it's over for that defense, and then if Aaron Donald's on.
- 13:05Speaker 2: It's over for golf.
- 13:06Speaker 2: Yeah, if he can get in, go ahead.
- 13:08Speaker 2: Left to that, I just yeah.
- 13:11Speaker 1: I'm God.
- 13:11Speaker 1: I think I'm rude.
- 13:12Speaker 1: I'm definitely rooting for man Campbell in the Lions here and a city of Detroit, I think.
- 13:16Speaker 1: Good God, they need that.
- 13:18Speaker 1: Good, I hope they get this one.
- 13:20Speaker 2: I'm rooting for them.
- 13:21Speaker 2: Right, everybody wants to see that franchise get some nice.
- 13:24Speaker 2: Yeah, that's outside of the Rams Rams fans.
- 13:27Speaker 1: I think everybody's going to be rooting for the Lions here, but I am picking the Rams.
- 13:33Speaker 1: All right, one more.
- 13:36Speaker 1: It's a Monday night game.
- 13:38Speaker 1: Yeah, those have been kind of hobbling into the playoffs here and they're going against Baker in the box.
- 13:46Speaker 1: Justin has picked another upset here.
- 13:49Speaker 1: He went with the box.
- 13:51Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, yeah, that's right.
- 13:53Speaker 2: That's right he did.
- 13:54Speaker 2: And you know what, if, if AJ Brown hadn't gotten hurt, I would probably I would say go Eagles on this one.
- 14:04Speaker 2: But I think I think he might be right, I think the Eagles might be done Right.
- 14:08Speaker 2: I don't know, though, oh God, it's really hard for me to take the the box.
- 14:15Speaker 2: Right, because they they're not that good.
- 14:18Speaker 2: No, they're not, they're not that good.
- 14:20Speaker 2: They're coming from the NFC South.
- 14:21Speaker 2: Who's going to pick anybody from the South in the playoffs?
- 14:24Speaker 1: Will Philly be able to get the offense going enough Enough?
- 14:28Speaker 2: That's what is Tampa's defense is doubt, and the thing is is Philly's looked like trash for a lot of weeks in a row.
- 14:36Speaker 2: Now, like you think eventually there would be some figure in it.
- 14:42Speaker 2: I just don't know, man.
- 14:43Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 14:44Speaker 1: Tampa has weapons, but you saw the Saints go in there and shut them out pretty much.
- 14:51Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 14:52Speaker 1: But you know, I I think Mike Evans is is a future all the famer, though they still have guys like that, and it's at home.
- 15:01Speaker 2: And AJ Brown's not going to be playing.
- 15:02Speaker 1: They got guys like Devin White on defense.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going box man.
- 15:08Speaker 2: Oh man.
- 15:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 15:10Speaker 2: Yeah, ok, all right, that would send them out to San Francisco.
- 15:14Speaker 2: Right, yeah, that would.
- 15:16Speaker 2: That would All right, baker Baker.
- 15:19Speaker 1: Detroit wins.
- 15:20Speaker 1: If Detroit wins, it doesn't, the winner of that game goes regardless.
- 15:26Speaker 2: Yeah, ok, I got you.
- 15:28Speaker 1: If St Louis I'm sorry the Rams win, then if Philly were to win, they would go to Dallas.
- 15:39Speaker 2: Then the Rams go out to San Francisco.
- 15:43Speaker 2: Damn, I don't, I don't think I want that now.
- 15:47Speaker 1: I try to play the, you don't.
- 15:49Speaker 1: Yeah, you want to play the.
- 15:50Speaker 1: You want the Bucks.
- 15:51Speaker 1: Yeah, I was thinking this one too, and like what's up with Jalen Hertzman, like what is going on, like this guy got paid in BP yeah, I mean we remember back, is he?
- 16:08Speaker 1: Has he been figured out?
- 16:09Speaker 2: Bosa after the 49ers put it on him Right.
- 16:12Speaker 2: As he been said we laid out the blueprint and like since then he's just looked bad.
- 16:20Speaker 1: Right, I'm going to go Eagles here.
- 16:23Speaker 2: All right, I mean I should.
- 16:27Speaker 1: Yeah, they're going to rise up, they're going to get it done, all right.
- 16:32Speaker 1: So, eagles for me, bucks for you in that game, and then we'll run it in reverse.
- 16:39Speaker 1: I have the Rams to you, got the Rams.
- 16:43Speaker 1: Junior has the lines, though, all right.
- 16:46Speaker 1: And then, god, I want the lines to win that game.
- 16:50Speaker 1: And then there was Cowboys Packers, packers.
- 16:55Speaker 1: Just Justin's going with the Packers.
- 16:58Speaker 2: I'm going Cowboys.
- 17:00Speaker 1: I'm going Cowboys as well.
- 17:01Speaker 1: And then there is the bills.
- 17:05Speaker 1: We're all going bills here, yeah, and Saturday night you two are going dolphins.
- 17:14Speaker 2: You go with the kill of seas and so am I.
- 17:19Speaker 1: Give me the switch the host, switch the flip.
- 17:23Speaker 1: Yes, I'm waiting to the end.
- 17:26Speaker 2: And then nice, I'm going.
- 17:28Speaker 1: Texans and you guys are both going brown.
- 17:30Speaker 1: So yeah some different picks here, but we're all together on Miami, so they'll they'll get beat by 35.
- 17:37Speaker 1: Ok, I'm nah, but like I mean they don't got chiefs.
- 17:42Speaker 2: Don't have that this year.
- 17:44Speaker 1: If most are can play, I think to be in the right mindset to try to prove the naysayers wrong.
- 17:50Speaker 1: He's getting a lot of doubt this week.
- 17:54Speaker 2: Hey, run the ball.
- 17:55Speaker 1: Yeah, run the ball Right.
- 17:57Speaker 1: Whoever runs the ball and whoever doesn't turn it over wins this game Guaranteed?
- 18:00Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not.
- 18:01Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty simple, all the time in the NFL, but especially in this game with the conditions.
- 18:09Speaker 2: Whoever makes all their extra points is going to win this game, gentlemen, everybody get over there and roast.
- 18:15Speaker 2: Pekowski's leg for good luck yeah.
- 18:18Speaker 1: Well, we gotta get on out of here.
- 18:20Speaker 1: We got a big weekend.
- 18:22Speaker 1: We got FSU Hoops.
- 18:23Speaker 2: Got a big game on the road tomorrow.
- 18:25Speaker 1: Had another game we need to get this win.
- 18:28Speaker 2: CW Network everybody Right.
- 18:30Speaker 1: And then there's the NFL playoff.
- 18:32Speaker 2: Tune in early for One Tree Hills.
- 18:34Speaker 2: Stay late for some gossip girl Right.
- 18:37Speaker 1: We watched the game Yep, then we got Browns and the Dolphins Chiefs, and there's a triple header on Sunday before we get Monday to look forward to the Monday night game.
- 18:52Speaker 1: What do you think about that Monday night game?
- 18:54Speaker 1: It's kind of unfair, though, in terms of it being the playoff.
- 18:58Speaker 1: I think they picked the worst game to put on Monday night.
- 19:00Speaker 1: Right, because, yeah, because they know it, it really is kind of not fair.
- 19:06Speaker 1: I mean, like for the teams that are playing on Monday night, they get a whole extra day and it's not like it's almost two days, because those games Sunday afternoon and then you got to wait all day Monday and play like at night.
- 19:23Speaker 2: Right.
- 19:25Speaker 1: Well, and then you're getting up to getting home Tuesday, you know, to finally rest.
- 19:29Speaker 1: So, like you're at a disadvantage.
- 19:31Speaker 2: What does that mean?
- 19:32Speaker 2: Your next week's matchup that they'll play Monday night after that.
- 19:35Speaker 1: No, no, they should guarantee them that they're at a disadvantage.
- 19:42Speaker 1: There's no other way to put it.
- 19:44Speaker 1: Hey man, but money rules the world man.
- 19:48Speaker 2: The sport is run by television executives Right.
- 19:52Speaker 1: ESPN At every level.
- 19:53Speaker 2: At one and high school college.
- 19:55Speaker 1: They wanted to get that Monday night game and pro Everything's on a peacock, or yeah, or a, or a Tweety bird or Tweety bird man.
- 20:04Speaker 1: You gotta have the app on the screen.
- 20:10Speaker 1: That's the.
