- 0:00Speaker 1: Welcome, welcome, welcome, welcome back to another episode. Episode number
- 0:04Speaker 1: 181 of the So-Called Sports Analyst, where before a football pod,
- 0:08Speaker 1: we talk basketball.
- 0:10Speaker 2: Ryan, how are you doing?
- 0:15Speaker 3: Sorry, I had to unmute my mic, but I'm doing
- 0:18Speaker 3: pretty well, man. It's top of the morning. About to
- 0:21Speaker 3: get the day started. Great way to get it started
- 0:23Speaker 3: with a calm little pod, you know?
- 0:25Speaker 1: About to pull.
- 0:26Speaker 3: Up some Dynasty. Yeah, but No, it's been a good week.
- 0:30Speaker 3: Good start to the week, you know. Thunder win last night.
- 0:34Speaker 3: Tech win last night. I don't even care about the
- 0:36Speaker 3: Cowboys anymore, if I'm being honest.
- 0:38Speaker 2: Cowboys don't care.
- 0:39Speaker 3: Like I said last week. Like I said last week.
- 0:42Speaker 3: Sports was down and then Cowboys won. Yeah. Yay. Whatever. Yeah.
- 0:48Speaker 3: I don't care right now, bro. So, yeah. Arsenal won
- 0:52Speaker 3: on Sunday. So, that's the only reason I was pretty happy. And, yeah. Just...
- 0:57Speaker 3: Happy to be back on the pod. Excited to talk
- 1:00Speaker 3: some ball. Yeah, just me and Fonzo today, but we're
- 1:04Speaker 3: finna go hard.
- 1:05Speaker 2: Yeah, Brecken, he's sick right now, so he got ruled.
- 1:10Speaker 3: Out for this week. Yeah, he got ruled out with
- 1:14Speaker 3: an illness.
- 1:16Speaker 1: Yeah, ruled out with an illness. He should make his
- 1:18Speaker 1: return next week, but yeah, no, before we start, find
- 1:22Speaker 1: us on Twitch, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, under TSESA or the
- 1:25Speaker 1: so-called Sports Analysts. And make sure you show this to
- 1:27Speaker 1: anybody that likes sports. But as we always do, before
- 1:31Speaker 1: we get into the NFL Week 8, we're going to
- 1:34Speaker 1: go into the Dynasty portion with another update. And, Ryan,
- 1:39Speaker 1: you can go ahead and share your screen if you're ready.
- 1:41Speaker 3: I'll go first so you can go second.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:45Speaker 3: Yeah, you go ahead and share your screen. All right.
- 1:47Speaker 3: Is this a– do I need to zoom in?
- 1:50Speaker 2: Yeah, just zoom in just a little bit.
- 1:52Speaker 3: Yeah. There? Yeah, that's good right there.
- 1:58Speaker 1: All righty.
- 1:59Speaker 3: So here's my matchup. It was against the other Ryan
- 2:03Speaker 3: matchup of the week.
- 2:05Speaker 1: Ryan versus Ryan.
- 2:06Speaker 3: We despise each other. It's an easy win. I didn't
- 2:10Speaker 3: even worry about this league, you know, this week because
- 2:15Speaker 3: he's the worst team probably in league history, if we're
- 2:18Speaker 3: being honest. I think he put up 61 this week.
- 2:24Speaker 3: Last week, he almost freaking lost. He almost beat Josh with, like,
- 2:27Speaker 3: 100 points. It was crazy. Yeah. It so happened Josh had, like,
- 2:34Speaker 3: put up that amount against the worst team ever. But, yeah,
- 2:39Speaker 3: this was the team this week. He had Lamar, got hurt,
- 2:42Speaker 3: which is sad to see, especially for my shares of
- 2:45Speaker 3: Zay Flowers. Trevor, gosh, he looks so good, man. Maybe
- 2:49Speaker 3: we'll talk about him in a little bit. And then Chuba.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Yes, sir.
- 2:54Speaker 3: He has no one, so he put in Trevor E.T.
- 2:59Speaker 3: That's so nasty, bro. And I think Chuba is, like,
- 3:01Speaker 3: one of the surprises because everyone was on Jonathan Brooks.
- 3:04Speaker 3: I know. I, like, was part of that, too. I was, yeah.
- 3:08Speaker 3: And then Josh Jacobs coming back, which he might go
- 3:11Speaker 3: back to being suspended. I don't know. He's not a
- 3:14Speaker 3: good guy. This dude, get him off the show, man.
- 3:17Speaker 3: And then Jadarian Price came back, and I thought he
- 3:21Speaker 3: looked pretty good. He looked all right. Yeah. And then
- 3:24Speaker 3: Drake London. This is not what I expect, but, like,
- 3:27Speaker 3: it's fine. What do you expect from a monsoon game,
- 3:31Speaker 3: you know?
- 3:32Speaker 1: For real, yeah.
- 3:33Speaker 3: Michael Penix had, like, four picks. It was crazy. And
- 3:36Speaker 3: then Tet underperformed a little bit against the Packers. BTJ
- 3:44Speaker 3: had a touchdown.
- 3:44Speaker 2: That's so nasty.
- 3:45Speaker 1: I see that head-to-head of BTJ and Zay Flowers, bro.
- 3:49Speaker 3: BTJ, Zay Flowers, bro.
- 3:51Speaker 1: Um....
- 3:53Speaker 3: Zay Flowers had to play with, I forgot his name,
- 3:57Speaker 3: but a third-string quarterback. Lamar gets hurt. First play of
- 4:00Speaker 3: the game, Joe. Yeah. Yeah. And then Zay Flowers, Lamar
- 4:08Speaker 3: gets hurt, and then Tyler Huntley gets hurt. That sucks
- 4:12Speaker 3: to see. Chris Godwin, same. They didn't even complete a pass.
- 4:16Speaker 3: The Bucs didn't. It's crazy. Josh Downs, up in his stock.
- 4:23Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:24Speaker 3: Before the trade deadline, even though it's four for 23 yards. Yeah.
- 4:29Speaker 3: But he was he was wide open in the end zone.
- 4:31Speaker 3: He's the best in the league. Big Brock Bowers, baby. Yes, sir.
- 4:39Speaker 3: The one week I like really don't need him in Dynasty.
- 4:43Speaker 3: He goes off. It's the week he shows up, yeah.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 4:46Speaker 3: That's how it usually goes, yeah. I didn't really need
- 4:48Speaker 3: him because I was playing against Ryan. And then in
- 4:51Speaker 3: a redraft league, I was also playing against Ryan. And
- 4:53Speaker 3: he had Brock Bowers, and he decided to go off. Like,
- 4:56Speaker 3: the week I played your dad, I could have used this,
- 4:59Speaker 3: and I would have won by a large margin. But,
- 5:01Speaker 3: you know, just how fantasy goes. Yeah, always. And then
- 5:05Speaker 3: Chase Brown, he looks to be... They look to be
- 5:08Speaker 3: splitting the backfield still with Samaj P. Ryan. But, I mean...
- 5:13Speaker 3: You should have had that touchdown, bro.
- 5:15Speaker 1: It's been, what, like 20 games without a touchdown?
- 5:20Speaker 3: It's been so long. But 16 points with a fumble
- 5:23Speaker 3: without a touchdown, I mean, what can you ask for?
- 5:28Speaker 3: And then KC just didn't do too much. And then Javante,
- 5:34Speaker 3: it was probably one of his worst games this year,
- 5:38Speaker 3: just inefficient. And then Tyler Higby. He's doing what he does.
- 5:43Speaker 3: Just gets a couple catches. One catch. Yeah. Jared Goff,
- 5:48Speaker 3: a calm little game from him. I don't expect much
- 5:51Speaker 3: when you're playing against Vikings, the best team in the NFC.
- 5:55Speaker 3: And then Deshaun Watson. Yeah, he played all right. And
- 6:03Speaker 3: then Evan McPherson, just calm. Chris Boswell, calm. I... I
- 6:09Speaker 3: think I'm going to pick up Malik Willis in a
- 6:10Speaker 3: redraft league. I freaking love that guy, man. He won.
- 6:14Speaker 1: Shout out Malik Willis, bro.
- 6:15Speaker 3: He saved me from doing punishment.
- 6:17Speaker 2: Your biggest miss of the day was Tyler Algier, bro.
- 6:20Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
- 6:23Speaker 2: 36 points on the bench.
- 6:24Speaker 3: 36, Tyler Algier. In the weekly report, it's going to be, like,
- 6:30Speaker 3: bench points, and it's going to have Tyler Algier as
- 6:32Speaker 3: number one. I do. I do. And the crazy thing
- 6:36Speaker 3: is– To be.
- 6:36Speaker 2: Fair, Todd Alger didn't go crazy until the second half, bro.
- 6:39Speaker 3: Bro, and it's so weird because whenever we– whenever Jeremiah
- 6:47Speaker 3: Love was out, did nothing. And then Jeremiah Love plays.
- 6:52Speaker 3: He plays, and then he, like, hurts his ankle. And
- 6:54Speaker 3: then he just has to suit up for him to
- 6:56Speaker 3: play good. But, boy, it's yours.
- 7:00Speaker 2: That's really what it is. But all right, guys, so.
- 7:02Speaker 1: As far as for my matchup for this week right here,
- 7:06Speaker 1: it was against the second.
- 7:07Speaker 2: So, back-to-back weeks, I went up against the two seeds.
- 7:10Speaker 1: And, you know, everybody's top dog until they face top
- 7:13Speaker 1: dog right here. And so, the projections for the week,
- 7:16Speaker 1: it was 180 to 175. So, high-scoring game. A high-scoring game.
- 7:21Speaker 1: And Josh scored 173. So, his team lived up.
- 7:24Speaker 3: To the billing.
- 7:25Speaker 1: Mahomes, 31.
- 7:25Speaker 3: Kane, 912.
- 7:25Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, 14. Jason, 23. coker 9 dj moore 16
- 7:32Speaker 1: travis kelsey 11 martin hampton almost five points denzel boston
- 7:37Speaker 1: 9 josh allen 30 and chad ryland he scored nine
- 7:41Speaker 1: points so again i always give pep talks to my
- 7:45Speaker 1: team because you know i wasn't that good of a
- 7:47Speaker 1: dynasty manager a couple years ago so all right boys
- 7:52Speaker 1: i don't need nobody to go off here i just
- 7:54Speaker 1: need consistency that's that's all i need from you guys
- 7:58Speaker 1: And you know what they said? They said, coach, we
- 7:59Speaker 1: got you. We're going to chop wood and carry water
- 8:01Speaker 1: and keep it pushing. And so Caleb Williams, a calm
- 8:04Speaker 1: little 16. Ashton Gentry got four total touches, four, or no, five,
- 8:11Speaker 1: and had 10 points, just showing how explosive he is.
- 8:13Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift, 27 points. Luther Burton, who's been transcended ever
- 8:19Speaker 1: since Caleb got back, 18 points. Parker Washington, I'm not
- 8:23Speaker 1: worried about him. We're going to chop wood, carry water,
- 8:25Speaker 1: keep it pushing. Three points. Puka, 25. Trey McBride, 20.
- 8:30Speaker 1: Basial Tootin, 29 points. Jeremy Bernard, 8. Not too bad.
- 8:36Speaker 1: And the man that I traded for, Mr.
- 8:39Speaker 2: Joe Burrow.
- 8:40Speaker 1: Joe Burrow with 50 points. A 50-burger. Spencer Strader, we're
- 8:46Speaker 1: not going to talk about that.
- 8:46Speaker 2: That's one point.
- 8:47Speaker 1: We might need to make some substitutions down the road
- 8:50Speaker 1: right there. But, you know, just... A class outing, 209 points,
- 8:54Speaker 1: almost 210. And this has been four weeks in a
- 8:58Speaker 1: row where I score at least 180 or better. So
- 9:02Speaker 1: it's showing my team can put up these crazy points.
- 9:06Speaker 1: But we're just consistent. This is just another day. Like,
- 9:09Speaker 1: my whole life is consistency. So I just want to say, bro.
- 9:16Speaker 1: I just want to say from when we started, 2024,
- 9:19Speaker 1: I had one win. And the amount of points I
- 9:23Speaker 1: had throughout that entire year was 1,450. As of this year,
- 9:32Speaker 1: through eight weeks, I have 1,426 points. So just.
- 9:41Speaker 2: To come up is here, 7-1, six-game win streak.
- 9:44Speaker 1: I'm tied with the longest win streak in the Dynasty League,
- 9:47Speaker 1: which you have right now at Shout out to Rawshot
- 9:52Speaker 1: for that.
- 9:52Speaker 2: A few Dynasty managers have that. Rawshot, it's goaded. It's
- 9:56Speaker 2: not even a sponsor or nothing, but use that on
- 9:59Speaker 2: the normal stuff.
- 10:00Speaker 3: Break it bro you play brendan or yeah you play
- 10:04Speaker 3: brendan or hector next week so.
- 10:06Speaker 1: I play hector brendan and ryan yeah bro you're about
- 10:10Speaker 1: to go back to might have the best best record
- 10:12Speaker 1: in the league yeah i play but i and brendan
- 10:15Speaker 1: next i was talking with marcos he's like bro you've
- 10:18Speaker 1: had an easy schedule I'm like, no, I haven't. I
- 10:21Speaker 1: faced Damien when he was good. I lost to Marcos.
- 10:25Speaker 1: I faced my dad. Faced Brecken, you, Jesse, Eddie, and
- 10:31Speaker 1: then Josh. That's everybody who's been in playoff competition.
- 10:35Speaker 3: In playoffs, yeah. Dude, your team's the truth, bro. You
- 10:39Speaker 3: might have the best record ever. And you were literally
- 10:42Speaker 3: bottom of the league. It's your dad. Last year, literally.
- 10:45Speaker 3: 11-3 or 10-4. I think 11-3 last year by your dad.
- 10:50Speaker 3: But he flamed out in the playoff.
- 10:53Speaker 2: It depends who I play. Okay, so after that.
- 10:58Speaker 3: Yeah, bro.
- 10:58Speaker 1: Oh, week 12, I play Damien. Dang, so I play Damien, Hector, Brendan,
- 11:03Speaker 1: and other Ryan.
- 11:05Speaker 3: Bro, yeah.
- 11:06Speaker 1: You have a really good schedule. And then my dad.
- 11:10Speaker 1: And then the week I face my dad, that's when
- 11:12Speaker 1: the Cowboys are going to buy.
- 11:15Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. So W, yeah. That's an easy W because
- 11:19Speaker 3: he has CD. And then here, I'll look at the
- 11:23Speaker 3: standings right now. So you're atop the league. You're going insane, bro. 14,000
- 11:32Speaker 3: or 1426. You're miles above everyone else.
- 11:36Speaker 1: Dude, you know, I average almost 180 a game.
- 11:41Speaker 3: Yeah, that's crazy. That's absolutely this. Your team. probably rivaling
- 11:47Speaker 3: breckins for one of the best ever in this league
- 11:50Speaker 3: no last year was insane.
- 11:53Speaker 1: Breckins team won a chip so i gotta i gotta
- 11:56Speaker 1: i gotta win the chip but i mean he.
- 11:59Speaker 3: Also did have like malik neighbors jamar chase he won
- 12:03Speaker 3: it without malik neighbors actually that's why he did like
- 12:06Speaker 3: a literally powerhouse but now y'all swap places.
- 12:12Speaker 1: We really did swap places.
- 12:16Speaker 3: I just love the come up, bro. Your first, Eddie's second.
- 12:22Speaker 3: Josh is third. I'm fourth. Your dad's fifth. And then
- 12:25Speaker 3: Jesse's sixth, bro. Calm six plays. This league is very competitive.
- 12:29Speaker 3: How are you feeling, Ryan?
- 12:31Speaker 1: The rest of your schedule, you have... You have Brendan.
- 12:35Speaker 3: I feel pretty good, honestly. And you have Eddie. I
- 12:38Speaker 3: have a chance of going undefeated. You have Brendan and
- 12:41Speaker 3: then Eddie, which... Who does he have on by? No one.
- 12:49Speaker 3: But I feel like I could take down Eddie. I
- 12:52Speaker 3: just feel like my team's pretty good when they perform, actually.
- 12:56Speaker 1: Honestly, your tough one's going to be Brecken and Josh.
- 12:59Speaker 3: Yeah, Brecken and Josh to end. That's how I started
- 13:04Speaker 3: the year, so I'll finish with Brecken and Josh. And
- 13:07Speaker 3: I beat them. I beat both of them. And that
- 13:10Speaker 3: was when Brecken was good. Back when Brecken was good. Dang,
- 13:15Speaker 3: this really is competitive, bro. And then I lost to Hector.
- 13:21Speaker 3: I went two and one.
- 13:23Speaker 2: It's rematch versus Hector coming up.
- 13:26Speaker 3: Yeah, bro. But yeah, I think I have a good
- 13:29Speaker 3: chance of going undefeated. But I don't know. Nah, dude.
- 13:32Speaker 3: It's going to be hard. It's going to be... Fantasy
- 13:36Speaker 3: is so fun, man.
- 13:38Speaker 2: Dude, I love fantasy. I love Dynasty fantasy now.
- 13:41Speaker 3: I love it. It was.
- 13:43Speaker 2: I was down at the dumps the.
- 13:44Speaker 3: Last two years. Yeah, you were, bro. We're back, bro.
- 13:49Speaker 3: It's fun. It's fun to play, you know. But, yeah,
- 13:53Speaker 3: trying to just make the playoffs all you got to
- 13:55Speaker 3: do in fantasy. Yeah. Anything can happen from there. Yeah.
- 13:59Speaker 3: That's what's scary.
- 14:00Speaker 1: Like, I don't know, like, if you think about that,
- 14:04Speaker 1: when your team gets a bye week, it's like, bro,
- 14:07Speaker 1: my team's getting complacent, bro. It's like, can't let that happen, bro.
- 14:10Speaker 1: They got to go watch film. They got to go
- 14:12Speaker 1: back in the lab.
- 14:13Speaker 3: Facts. Facts, bro. Literally.
- 14:18Speaker 1: No disrespect to Brendan, Ryan, or Hector.
- 14:22Speaker 3: No, I think they're like, nah. They know their team sucks.
- 14:28Speaker 3: Ryan knows his team sucks, bro.
- 14:30Speaker 1: I should have 10 wins, and that should be more
- 14:33Speaker 1: than enough to get the bye.
- 14:36Speaker 3: Yeah, that's how I am with these next— This week
- 14:42Speaker 3: and then next week, I'm, like, not even paying attention
- 14:44Speaker 3: to Dynasty. Because I have Ryan and Brendan back to bat.
- 14:49Speaker 3: Shout out the boys. I hope you are listening. Ryan,
- 14:52Speaker 3: I hope you're listening, bro. Shout out Tech, too. They
- 14:56Speaker 3: got that W against Ranked Arizona.
- 14:58Speaker 1: Dude, that's going to be a tough for the second seed.
- 15:03Speaker 3: It is. It's going to be. I think it's a
- 15:05Speaker 3: clear top three. Or top four. Of the best teams. Me, you,
- 15:14Speaker 3: your dad.
- 15:15Speaker 2: Dude, imagine Jesse gets to buy, bro.
- 15:19Speaker 3: You know what's funny? He's trying to take, bro.
- 15:22Speaker 1: Jesse last year, Jesse and I last year were the
- 15:25Speaker 1: 11th and 12th.
- 15:28Speaker 3: Yeah, and they beat me and the other Ryan.
- 15:31Speaker 2: Dude, it was just a come up, bro.
- 15:36Speaker 3: One of the most embarrassing moments of my life. Because
- 15:38Speaker 3: then they were making AI videos of me selling lemonade,
- 15:41Speaker 3: which is our punishment. Y'all don't understand how scared I
- 15:46Speaker 3: was that whole week, bro. Like, I was... I was... Oh,
- 15:50Speaker 3: my goodness, man. I was like, dude, I can't do this.
- 15:55Speaker 3: And the crazy thing is I also taught crap to
- 15:57Speaker 3: Fonzo before. Like, during the matchup... Yeah, he was talking...
- 16:01Speaker 3: I was talking crap about, like, Gen T, like... Like...
- 16:07Speaker 3: Or I said something. Who went off for me? It
- 16:12Speaker 3: was Genji. Genji went off. Yeah. But I was like...
- 16:17Speaker 3: EZW or something. I said something. Yeah. And then I
- 16:20Speaker 3: ended up losing.
- 16:21Speaker 1: Yeah, then you ended up losing, bro.
- 16:22Speaker 2: He ended up stressing another week, bro.
- 16:25Speaker 3: Yeah, bro. It's a pressure career, bro. It was one
- 16:27Speaker 3: of the most stressful weeks of my life, bro. And
- 16:30Speaker 3: we're just talking about dynasty, bro. That's all it is.
- 16:32Speaker 3: And it was stressful because I just did not want
- 16:35Speaker 3: to lose. Shout out Malik Willis, bro. Love that guy.
- 16:38Speaker 1: Dude, shout out Malik Willis, bro. No, but also, okay,
- 16:43Speaker 1: last thing. I never finished actually last in Dynasty. Like,
- 16:46Speaker 1: to make that clear. I won the toilet bowl the
- 16:49Speaker 1: first year against Brendan, so he got last.
- 16:53Speaker 2: And then last year, I got, like, 10th or something
- 16:56Speaker 2: like that.
- 16:57Speaker 1: So I never got last. That's the point. I went
- 16:59Speaker 1: from 11th to 10th, maybe to 1.
- 17:02Speaker 3: We'll see, though.
- 17:03Speaker 1: But, all right, let's get into this NFL question. slate
- 17:07Speaker 1: of games right here and we're going to start with
- 17:09Speaker 1: the Monday night football game right here in which I
- 17:12Speaker 1: think this is normal right here baby goat does baby
- 17:14Speaker 1: goat things first 200 yard passer against the Mike McDonald
- 17:18Speaker 1: defense this year and they win 34 to 17 pretty
- 17:22Speaker 1: much a statement game after both teams make some big
- 17:25Speaker 1: trades Quinn and Nelson for the Seahawks Jeffrey Simmons to
- 17:28Speaker 1: the Bears so overall what you see from.
- 17:31Speaker 3: This game yeah from this game I think we saw
- 17:34Speaker 3: the immediate impact of Jeffrey Simmons And like I was saying,
- 17:39Speaker 3: the Bears' defense looked like I was like, they low-key
- 17:42Speaker 3: might be good. Like, I like the pieces that are
- 17:44Speaker 3: coming in, and then all of a sudden, you see
- 17:46Speaker 3: Jeffrey Simmons. They trade for Jeffrey Simmons, and that makes
- 17:49Speaker 3: all the worlds different. In my opinion, probably the best
- 17:53Speaker 3: defensive tackle in the league. Him. Yeah, it's him. But
- 17:59Speaker 3: I was going to say Q, but can't really.
- 18:02Speaker 1: I mean, Q's been dominant. He has, but... Individually.
- 18:07Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 18:07Speaker 1: Individually.
- 18:07Speaker 3: We can't say that whenever our defense sucks. But, yeah,
- 18:11Speaker 3: it's for sure Jeffrey Simmons. And we saw the immediate
- 18:16Speaker 3: impact of him there. And then we also saw the
- 18:19Speaker 3: Quentin Nelson suit up for the Seahawks. And I think
- 18:21Speaker 3: I saw a thing. It was like he got traded
- 18:25Speaker 3: to the Seahawks, and then Jeffrey Simmons got traded to
- 18:28Speaker 3: the Bears. And he was like, bro, I can't get
- 18:30Speaker 3: away from this guy. Dude. Because, like, they were in
- 18:33Speaker 3: the same division.
- 18:35Speaker 1: Yeah, division.
- 18:35Speaker 3: It was Colts and the Titans. And then they played
- 18:39Speaker 3: one play again for a while. But, yeah, we saw
- 18:41Speaker 3: the immediate impact and how he just wrecks offense. Like,
- 18:46Speaker 3: that is all defense type of play right there. Just wrecking.
- 18:51Speaker 3: And we saw it with the Titans, but it obviously
- 18:53Speaker 3: is going to make more of an impact with the Bears,
- 18:56Speaker 3: a better team. Yeah. And we saw everyone eating. We
- 19:01Speaker 3: saw Josh Sweat. And him and Josh Sweat were actually
- 19:04Speaker 3: teammates at Mississippi State, so that's pretty cool. Or not
- 19:06Speaker 3: Josh Sweat.
- 19:08Speaker 1: Yeah, Montez, yeah.
- 19:09Speaker 3: Montez, my bad. Yeah. But, yeah, we saw Montez get
- 19:12Speaker 3: in there creating havoc. Like, he's just a game wrecker.
- 19:16Speaker 3: It's going to make guards and tackles just try to
- 19:19Speaker 3: double him. And, like, if not double him, like, just
- 19:23Speaker 3: give a little chip and then maybe get back to
- 19:25Speaker 3: their assignment. But that makes all the world's difference because
- 19:29Speaker 3: if you're able to– take attention away from your edges
- 19:33Speaker 3: and just your outside linebackers, stuff like that, then it's
- 19:37Speaker 3: going to just bode so well for your team. And
- 19:39Speaker 3: I thought we saw that. And I think, yeah, it's
- 19:42Speaker 3: just this makes them immediate contenders. Like if they weren't already,
- 19:48Speaker 3: they're probably like fringe, in my opinion. because their defense was,
- 19:53Speaker 3: I mean, they weren't fringe. They were probably, they weren't
- 19:56Speaker 3: top contender, but they were contender. And now this makes
- 19:59Speaker 3: them probably one of the best in the NFC. And
- 20:02Speaker 3: I'm not, I don't want people to think I'm being reactionary.
- 20:05Speaker 3: I think we've all thought this because of how good
- 20:07Speaker 3: their offense is. And then their defense, like I have
- 20:10Speaker 3: been saying, has been on the up, in my opinion.
- 20:13Speaker 3: If anything, they probably just lack a solid corner. Jalen
- 20:17Speaker 3: Johnson is good, but I feel like he's not as
- 20:20Speaker 3: good as he used to be.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Yeah, I buy that.
- 20:23Speaker 3: He's kind of slacky. I don't know. He's so up
- 20:26Speaker 3: and down, in my opinion. He can have an all-pro season,
- 20:30Speaker 3: because that's what they're missing. I don't know. Maybe that's
- 20:34Speaker 3: the only thing, but I don't think they'll go out
- 20:36Speaker 3: and trade for one. because Dennis Allen's been calling a
- 20:39Speaker 3: great defense, and then you have Alperis over there. So, yeah,
- 20:44Speaker 3: I think the defense was amazing. And then the offense.
- 20:47Speaker 3: That is just one of the best displays of offense
- 20:50Speaker 3: that we've seen this season. Ben Johnson is just a mastermind,
- 20:54Speaker 3: and it's insane. It's such a pleasure to watch this
- 20:58Speaker 3: team go out and get to work. We see Caleb
- 21:01Speaker 3: Williams just doing what he does in pros. Him and
- 21:05Speaker 3: Rome connections are insane. I feel like Rome is always
- 21:08Speaker 3: on the ground making insane catches. He just throws a
- 21:12Speaker 3: piss missile to him and then he just dives for it.
- 21:16Speaker 3: It's crazy. It's so cool to see. And then Luther
- 21:19Speaker 3: Burden is just absolutely feasting out there. He's a first half.
- 21:23Speaker 1: Warrior, bro.
- 21:24Speaker 3: He's a first half warrior. He'll play in the first half. Bro,
- 21:29Speaker 3: I think it's so cool to see how... If you're
- 21:32Speaker 3: a Bears fan... I bet it's so awesome. You're down
- 21:36Speaker 3: in the dumps. People were dogging on Caleb. Ryan Poles
- 21:40Speaker 3: was out there saying crazy stuff. He was. I don't know.
- 21:44Speaker 3: And then you bring in Ben Johnson. He gets the
- 21:48Speaker 3: O-line he wants. You bring in all these O-linemen, and
- 21:53Speaker 3: then you just build around that, and oh my goodness.
- 21:57Speaker 3: DeAndre Swift was probably being talked about not getting a
- 21:59Speaker 3: contract after that season. And then, I didn't even like
- 22:04Speaker 3: DeAndre Swift, if I'm being honest. I used to not
- 22:06Speaker 3: like the guy. I don't know why. But now, I
- 22:09Speaker 3: think he's going to play for the Eagles, and I
- 22:11Speaker 3: thought he was just so inefficient. And then, we see
- 22:14Speaker 3: with this O-line what they can do for him. And
- 22:17Speaker 3: just what a running back does in a Ben Johnson offense.
- 22:22Speaker 3: And it just makes a world difference. And then you
- 22:24Speaker 3: have Kyle Mungangai with the one-two punch. We even see
- 22:26Speaker 3: Roshan Johnson getting work in there with Mungangai. And I
- 22:30Speaker 3: just think this offense is... One of the best in
- 22:33Speaker 3: the league. They're not gaudy, but... It just reacts to you. But, yeah,
- 22:41Speaker 3: I think that this was probably the best display of
- 22:45Speaker 3: offense we've seen this season. Like, given the fact that
- 22:50Speaker 3: this is one of the best defenses, and we saw
- 22:52Speaker 3: what they did to Kenneth Walker and the Chiefs. It
- 22:55Speaker 3: just shows how good the Bears are, bro. Like, the
- 22:59Speaker 3: Chiefs walk in there undefeated. K-9 going for a million
- 23:04Speaker 3: yards a game. Patrick Mahomes looking like an MVP, and
- 23:07Speaker 3: they get absolutely shut down. And like I said last year,
- 23:10Speaker 3: or last year, last week, it's that home field advantage
- 23:14Speaker 3: for the Seahawks. If we didn't see that this game
- 23:16Speaker 3: at all because of how good this offense is. Yeah. Yeah,
- 23:21Speaker 3: I just think they're immediate contenders. We see how good
- 23:24Speaker 3: the offense is. Ben Johnson, one of the best coaches
- 23:26Speaker 3: in the NFL, one of the best young offensive minds
- 23:30Speaker 3: in the NFL. And it's just such a pleasure to
- 23:32Speaker 3: watch this team go crazy. And I think it's going
- 23:35Speaker 3: to be such a fun race for that division title. Obviously,
- 23:39Speaker 3: I think they're going to come out on top. But
- 23:41Speaker 3: I'm still riding with the Vikings, you know. Even though
- 23:44Speaker 3: it's probably obvious that the Bears are going to win it. Nah,
- 23:48Speaker 3: I don't care, bro. Ain't no one made Caleb look
- 23:51Speaker 3: like how Brian Flores did, bro.
- 23:55Speaker 1: Dude, Mike McDonald's a close second to Brian Flores this year.
- 24:00Speaker 3: Yeah, he really is. But Mike McDonald got worked by
- 24:04Speaker 3: Ben Johnson. Did they play? Have they played prior to this?
- 24:08Speaker 2: I don't think so.
- 24:11Speaker 3: No. Or actually, they did.
- 24:14Speaker 1: It was Caleb's rookie year, and they won 6-3.
- 24:19Speaker 3: Well, Ben Johnson wasn't there.
- 24:21Speaker 1: Is what I'm saying.
- 24:22Speaker 3: Yeah, Ben Johnson wasn't there.
- 24:23Speaker 1: But Mike McDonald was there.
- 24:26Speaker 3: No, no, no, no.
- 24:27Speaker 1: The only time... I mean, you could say with Detroit
- 24:29Speaker 1: and Seattle... And I think Detroit was.
- 24:31Speaker 3: Or Detroit and... No, Detroit and.
- 24:34Speaker 1: No, they did play.
- 24:35Speaker 3: They did play, yeah. Detroit and Baltimore. And Baltimore worked them.
- 24:39Speaker 3: You remember? It was 38-3 or something. And that's whenever.
- 24:44Speaker 2: We were like, dang.
- 24:45Speaker 3: So, Ben Johnson got his leg back, bro.
- 24:49Speaker 1: No, he sure did.
- 24:50Speaker 2: And one thing.
- 24:52Speaker 1: Okay, like, I'm not even trying to say this, like, hyperbolic. Like,
- 24:55Speaker 1: the offense didn't surprise me. Like, in all honesty.
- 24:58Speaker 3: Because.
- 24:59Speaker 1: Not only do you have to take into account this
- 25:01Speaker 1: is one of the best offenses, but Seahawks off an
- 25:04Speaker 1: emotional win, K-9 coming back, and shutting down one of
- 25:08Speaker 1: the best offenses so far in the league, shutting them down,
- 25:11Speaker 1: and then going into Monday Night Football compared to the Bears,
- 25:14Speaker 1: who played the Patriots last, where there was some things
- 25:17Speaker 1: they had to clean up defense. We got Jeffrey Simmons
- 25:19Speaker 1: a Thursday to a Monday. That's a mini-buy at that point.
- 25:23Speaker 1: So they had plenty of time. to actually look at
- 25:25Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks defense right here. And then not only that,
- 25:28Speaker 1: you add in the best offensive tackle in Jeffrey Simmons.
- 25:32Speaker 1: And I know most people, they think like, oh, edge rusher,
- 25:35Speaker 1: that's the cream of the crop. But a defensive tackle,
- 25:39Speaker 1: whenever they're that great, not only do they stop the run,
- 25:43Speaker 1: but a quarterback, the main thing, even Tom Brady's talked
- 25:46Speaker 1: about it before, if you're able to get pressure at
- 25:49Speaker 1: their feet, in the pocket where they can't step up,
- 25:51Speaker 1: that's where it messes them up.
- 25:53Speaker 2: It's a little bit different.
- 25:54Speaker 1: With agile quarterbacks who can move outside the pocket and everything,
- 25:57Speaker 1: but this is a perfect display right here with Sam Donald.
- 26:01Speaker 1: He's a guy that's going to stand in the pocket.
- 26:04Speaker 1: And Jeffrey Simmons just absolutely destroyed that the entire time.
- 26:08Speaker 1: The only thing that worked was Jason. I mean, that's
- 26:11Speaker 1: not a coincidence. Jason, he's going to get his.
- 26:14Speaker 2: And with Seattle, I'm not necessarily worried about them.
- 26:17Speaker 1: I just think they just ran into just wrong place,
- 26:20Speaker 1: wrong time. Because Quinn and Nelson, he was moving people.
- 26:23Speaker 1: Jadarian Price, Zach Charbonnet, this was their first games back.
- 26:26Speaker 1: I wasn't expecting, no, 100-yard games from them or anything,
- 26:29Speaker 1: but One thing I want to get into as far
- 26:32Speaker 1: as with this, the Seattle Seahawks have not allowed a
- 26:36Speaker 1: 200-yard passer, and they only allowed four rushing touchdowns up
- 26:41Speaker 1: to this point, week seven and up. This game, there
- 26:45Speaker 1: was three rushing touchdowns, and Caleb had 247 yards. He
- 26:48Speaker 1: should have had, I thought that Kalief Raymond passed. I
- 26:52Speaker 1: guess they called it a run, so he should have
- 26:55Speaker 1: had 300 yards rushing, 300 yards passing at that point.
- 26:58Speaker 1: But It's just one thing with Caleb this year, I
- 27:01Speaker 1: think the growth is transcendent because from year one to
- 27:05Speaker 1: year two, it'll stop taking sacks. And from year two
- 27:08Speaker 1: to year three, it was let's be more efficient. Let's
- 27:11Speaker 1: get these completions up. And he's done that to a
- 27:14Speaker 1: whole different level. You haven't seen a quarterback progress this
- 27:18Speaker 1: fast since Patrick Mahomes. And I'm not even, this isn't
- 27:22Speaker 1: even like hyperbolic or anything like, What he's able to
- 27:25Speaker 1: do with all these different skill guys. And Ben Johnson
- 27:29Speaker 1: helps out with this too. But it's scary to see.
- 27:32Speaker 1: This is barely year three of Caleb and the Bears.
- 27:35Speaker 1: These guys aren't going anywhere. And you're saying with Kyle Menunga.
- 27:38Speaker 1: Kyle Menunga is not even back. So that's what's really
- 27:42Speaker 1: going to make this scary right here. And the defense...
- 27:46Speaker 1: Dennis Allen, I feel like if it wasn't for Brian
- 27:48Speaker 1: Flores doing what he's doing, he'd be the coordinator of
- 27:52Speaker 1: the year up to this point. Because the pieces that
- 27:54Speaker 1: they've had defensively, besides adding Jeffrey Simmons now, they've been
- 27:59Speaker 1: doing more with less. But obviously Brian Flores, he's Brian Flores,
- 28:03Speaker 1: so we can't take that away from him. But yeah, Seahawks,
- 28:06Speaker 1: they'll be fine. I just don't think they'll catch Sam
- 28:09Speaker 1: Fran now. Maybe I just see them battling the Rams
- 28:12Speaker 1: up to this point. and they still have their other
- 28:15Speaker 1: two games. But Chicago, it's going to be Chicago and
- 28:18Speaker 1: Minnesota up to this point.
- 28:20Speaker 3: Yeah, I was just thinking about it for the Seahawks.
- 28:22Speaker 3: Maybe they trade for another wide receiver. Outside of Jason,
- 28:26Speaker 3: they don't have much. Torrey Horton looked good. They were,
- 28:30Speaker 3: I will say, he had a couple of good catches.
- 28:32Speaker 3: Sam Darnold, that two-point conversion throw by Sam Darnold was nasty.
- 28:36Speaker 1: That was nice.
- 28:37Speaker 3: It shows his arm talent, and it shows what he's
- 28:40Speaker 3: capable of because we know We've seen the clips of
- 28:43Speaker 3: him on the Jets where they were being showed all
- 28:46Speaker 3: last year where he just rolls out and throws an
- 28:48Speaker 3: insane pass. He has the talent. It's just sometimes he's
- 28:52Speaker 3: just not going to be there. He'll see ghosts, as
- 28:54Speaker 3: he says. But, yeah, I think for the Seahawks, I'm
- 28:58Speaker 3: not worried. Maybe just finding another playmaker, like maybe trade
- 29:05Speaker 3: for Josh Downs or something, which I don't know if
- 29:07Speaker 3: they will do. And I do like the move of
- 29:09Speaker 3: Jeffrey Simmons. But, yeah, they just ran into an insane
- 29:12Speaker 3: Bears offense. And the defense can only do so much,
- 29:15Speaker 3: you know. I thought it was a great battle between
- 29:18Speaker 3: the offense. And it's like whenever two masterminds clash, bro,
- 29:23Speaker 3: it's just a sight to see. And Ben Johnson took
- 29:25Speaker 3: this one. And, yeah, I think Ben Johnson won, actually.
- 29:31Speaker 3: I looked it up. They won last time they played.
- 29:33Speaker 3: It was Detroit versus Baltimore. It was a Thursday night. No,
- 29:36Speaker 3: it was a Monday night game. You remember when Monty
- 29:38Speaker 3: ran for like that? Oh, yeah.
- 29:40Speaker 1: I do remember.
- 29:41Speaker 3: It was that insane running play. And he ran for
- 29:45Speaker 3: like 151 and two touchdowns. And then Jameer scored two touchdowns, too. Yeah.
- 29:51Speaker 3: Ben Johnson just has had the upper hand on Mike McDonald.
- 29:54Speaker 3: And it shows. Like, that was a really good game.
- 29:58Speaker 3: And it just... It's going to happen whenever it's the
- 30:00Speaker 3: best against the best. And like you said, I'm not
- 30:02Speaker 3: worried about the Seahawks, especially trading for Quentin Nelson. It's
- 30:05Speaker 3: going to take him time to adjust. He's going to
- 30:08Speaker 3: have to learn a new playbook. He's going to have to.
- 30:10Speaker 3: And like for the Seahawks offensive line, they're having to adjust.
- 30:13Speaker 3: Grace Abel moved to right guard, and I think their
- 30:16Speaker 3: left tackle was injured. So no excuse, but they're going
- 30:20Speaker 3: to have to adjust with new positions and things like that.
- 30:24Speaker 3: And yeah, I would like to see them maybe get
- 30:27Speaker 3: a Josh Downs. That'd be so cool. Mm-hmm. The two
- 30:29Speaker 3: best route runners in the league. Dude, that would be
- 30:32Speaker 3: so awesome. Josh Downs on the Seahawks.
- 30:34Speaker 2: They really do need a wide receiver, too. They really do.
- 30:37Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know. That'd be really cool to see. But, yeah,
- 30:41Speaker 3: I'm not worried about the Seahawks. But that does probably
- 30:44Speaker 3: put them out of reach for the Niners because the
- 30:46Speaker 3: Niners are just rolling right now. Yeah. They'll probably run
- 30:49Speaker 3: into Buzzsaw within the next two weeks. In two weeks.
- 30:52Speaker 3: I don't know. Yeah. Dude, you know how funny that
- 30:56Speaker 3: would be?
- 30:56Speaker 2: We beat the Niners.
- 30:58Speaker 3: Yeah, like when we're not that good.
- 31:01Speaker 1: Also with Seattle, it was 20-17 in the fourth quarter.
- 31:04Speaker 2: It just happens.
- 31:06Speaker 1: Bears drove down the field, unfortunate interception, then touchdown, and
- 31:10Speaker 1: it made it look way out of hand.
- 31:11Speaker 3: And also special teams played a huge, huge role too.
- 31:13Speaker 3: It did. The Bears also had a block, and then
- 31:16Speaker 3: Jason Myers missed an extra point. And then we can
- 31:20Speaker 3: talk about how– because the Seahawks gained momentum back. They
- 31:23Speaker 3: were in the game, like you said. They had got
- 31:27Speaker 3: that fumble. It was a punt. They had punched it out.
- 31:31Speaker 2: Oh, no, it was Colson Loveland.
- 31:32Speaker 3: Sorry. It was just a pass, and then he fumbled,
- 31:36Speaker 3: and that gave them momentum. And then it just died
- 31:40Speaker 3: out after the Bears went down and drove down. So
- 31:43Speaker 3: I think it's not like they blew them out or anything.
- 31:46Speaker 3: They did have control most of the game, but the
- 31:48Speaker 3: Seahawks were still in it, and I'm not worried about them.
- 31:51Speaker 3: They'll be fine. And I think they are better than
- 31:53Speaker 3: the Rams right now because the Rams just look lackluster.
- 31:57Speaker 3: I don't know what's going on.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Yeah, especially against the Chargers. Yeah, they didn't look too
- 32:01Speaker 1: impressive at all.
- 32:02Speaker 3: They're going to have Miles. They just opened his practice window,
- 32:05Speaker 3: so I don't know if that will make a change,
- 32:06Speaker 3: but I don't know.
- 32:08Speaker 1: I mean, defensively, it hasn't been the problem.
- 32:11Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been offense, and I don't really care for
- 32:14Speaker 3: them anymore because they already did worse than what they
- 32:19Speaker 3: were expected, so maybe they can make it better. Like
- 32:21Speaker 3: I said earlier, like we've talked about it, I don't
- 32:24Speaker 3: think they care about the regular season, but at the
- 32:26Speaker 3: same time, you have to make the playoffs. Yeah. And
- 32:29Speaker 3: I think that Seattle will have the better record by
- 32:33Speaker 3: the end of the season because that defense is just insane. Yeah,
- 32:37Speaker 3: and home field will matter.
- 32:38Speaker 1: Yeah. As far as some of these games, I feel
- 32:43Speaker 1: like we don't need to discuss them really. Rams beating Chargers,
- 32:46Speaker 1: Patriots beating Dolphins, Commanders beating Eagles, but Chiefs-Broncos. I want to...
- 32:51Speaker 1: I want to go on that portion right there. Broncos,
- 32:55Speaker 1: they went 28-24, a goal line stand. And as much
- 33:00Speaker 1: as I don't want to say it because the Broncos,
- 33:01Speaker 1: they're first in the division now.
- 33:03Speaker 3: Yeah, bro. Bo Nix looks good. Bo Nix, he's looking good.
- 33:08Speaker 3: He looks better, bro.
- 33:09Speaker 2: Good to his standard.
- 33:12Speaker 1: Let me say that.
- 33:12Speaker 3: Good to his standard. He looked way better. He had
- 33:16Speaker 3: a higher ADOT than a pool table. His average throw
- 33:22Speaker 3: was about seven yards, so he got better. Only took
- 33:25Speaker 3: one sack, which is pretty good. And then two touchdowns,
- 33:30Speaker 3: threw 20 for 32 for 222 yards. And then I
- 33:33Speaker 3: want to talk about Jonah Coleman, bro. He's taking this
- 33:37Speaker 3: backfield over. He came back from injury, and now this
- 33:41Speaker 3: is his backfield. It's not like he had some otherworldly
- 33:44Speaker 3: type performance. He went 11 for 41.
- 33:47Speaker 1: But there was pop.
- 33:48Speaker 3: Yeah, there's pop, and he's getting in there, and it's just... R.J.
- 33:53Speaker 3: Harvey didn't even... Was he hurt?
- 33:55Speaker 1: Well, he's on IR.
- 33:56Speaker 2: Yeah, he went to IR.
- 33:57Speaker 3: Okay, okay, okay. Yeah, I thought something happened. Marvin Mims
- 34:01Speaker 3: had more yards on the ground than J.K. Dobbins did.
- 34:05Speaker 1: Like, J.K.
- 34:06Speaker 3: Dobbins is.
- 34:06Speaker 1: That's nasty.
- 34:08Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what's happening with him, but... I
- 34:10Speaker 3: think he's done. Yeah, I think he's done, too. And
- 34:14Speaker 3: Sean Payton brought in a running back he loves... In
- 34:16Speaker 3: Jonah Coleman, we thought that was going to be RJ Harvey, which,
- 34:19Speaker 3: I mean, in the air, it probably will be. He
- 34:21Speaker 3: loves to use running backs in the air. But, dude,
- 34:25Speaker 3: this is like a complete 180 from what we saw
- 34:28Speaker 3: week one. We saw total and utter domination. And I
- 34:31Speaker 3: will say, like I was talking about that first week,
- 34:34Speaker 3: it was probably just the atmosphere, the aura of Arrowhead.
- 34:38Speaker 3: Like a fluke week, yeah. Or what's it called now?
- 34:41Speaker 3: Gaya or something stadium. Gaya stadium, yeah.
- 34:44Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 34:45Speaker 3: Yeah. Arrowhead, same thing. But, yeah, I think that's what
- 34:50Speaker 3: it was, to be honest. And then same here. When
- 34:54Speaker 3: you go into these AFC West stadiums, other than the
- 34:58Speaker 3: Chargers and Las Vegas, I feel like those aren't as much.
- 35:01Speaker 3: But the Broncos and the Chiefs do matter. These are
- 35:04Speaker 3: two of the most hostile environments in the NFL. And
- 35:08Speaker 3: I think it played a huge part in week one
- 35:11Speaker 3: and now. And we saw this defense step up. And
- 35:14Speaker 3: I saw a breakdown. Shout out Film Watchers. I think
- 35:18Speaker 3: that's it. And he showed.
- 35:21Speaker 3: It was a play against the Bills in the Divisional. Whenever...
- 35:26Speaker 3: It was Pat Sertain, and he was guarding McCole Hardman.
- 35:28Speaker 3: And it's called Corndog. The play's called Corndog. And it's
- 35:32Speaker 3: the play the Chiefs won the Super Bowl on. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 35:35Speaker 3: They sent McCole Hardman in. They sent him in. And
- 35:38Speaker 3: then he takes a... He goes past the tight end,
- 35:40Speaker 3: and then he takes a hard cut out. And then
- 35:42Speaker 3: he just runs a little flat. And so... he showed
- 35:46Speaker 3: where the defense had messed up on that play. And
- 35:52Speaker 3: they messed up during the divisional. And then they ran
- 35:55Speaker 3: the same thing again with the Chiefs, the same exact play.
- 35:59Speaker 3: And this time, everyone communicated. And it just shows how
- 36:02Speaker 3: well coached his defense is. And I know Josh would
- 36:04Speaker 3: probably be like, I know last time he said, what
- 36:06Speaker 3: makes them a good defense? What makes them Like, why
- 36:11Speaker 3: are they talking to you?
- 36:11Speaker 1: The Vance Joseph, bro.
- 36:12Speaker 3: Yeah, it's Vance Joseph. We've seen what he does. And
- 36:15Speaker 3: that's why we had so much faith in Christian Parker.
- 36:18Speaker 3: Because he was under Vance Joseph. Vance Joseph. Vance Joseph.
- 36:24Speaker 3: We see what he can do. We see the talent
- 36:27Speaker 3: he has on that side of the ball. And having
- 36:30Speaker 3: Pat Sertain back is so great for this team.
- 36:34Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure.
- 36:35Speaker 3: And I think Alex Singleton leading the charge for this team.
- 36:40Speaker 3: just being the leader of the team is so amazing too.
- 36:43Speaker 3: We see on that play that I was talking about,
- 36:46Speaker 3: the one who made the play was Jaquan McMillan. And
- 36:49Speaker 3: I think he's an underrated corner in my opinion. They
- 36:53Speaker 3: have such a solid defense and I think it showed.
- 36:56Speaker 3: And then whenever you have Bo Nix play, like he's
- 37:00Speaker 3: a good quarterback, you're going to win games. And that,
- 37:04Speaker 3: that stand was insane. And, They beat the Chiefs because
- 37:09Speaker 3: of the offense. They were down 13-24 going into the fourth.
- 37:16Speaker 3: Then they come back. They go in and score. They
- 37:21Speaker 3: had a two-point, right? Yeah, they had a two-point to
- 37:24Speaker 3: make it 21-24. Yeah, exactly. That just shows the atmosphere
- 37:32Speaker 3: playing into it, how confident they are playing there. I
- 37:35Speaker 3: think I don't know. This is going to be such
- 37:37Speaker 3: a close race for the AFC West title. I think
- 37:41Speaker 3: the Broncos are starting to convince us again that they're good.
- 37:45Speaker 3: That skid they had was fluky. And I think the
- 37:48Speaker 3: defense plays such a huge role in that. They play
- 37:53Speaker 3: such a huge role in being that good of a team.
- 37:58Speaker 3: And we saw that last year. And I think Bo Nix,
- 38:01Speaker 3: I think he is a good quarterback. We can't. I
- 38:05Speaker 3: don't like when people use the game-winning drives and all
- 38:08Speaker 3: that because I feel like people are saying he's the
- 38:11Speaker 3: most clutch quarterback in the NFL. Dan Orlovsky said that.
- 38:14Speaker 3: I don't think he's the most clutch quarterback.
- 38:16Speaker 1: He's not the most clutch, yeah.
- 38:17Speaker 3: That's why I don't think– I wanted to talk about
- 38:19Speaker 3: it last pod, but we can't– we can use QB
- 38:23Speaker 3: wins to an extent. We can't use them entirely because
- 38:27Speaker 3: how are you going to say he's the most clutch
- 38:28Speaker 3: quarterback when he's obviously not? Because he has all those
- 38:31Speaker 3: game-winning drives. I don't think he's the most clutch quarterback.
- 38:34Speaker 3: But– I think if he plays up to the level
- 38:37Speaker 3: that we know he can, if he gets over that
- 38:39Speaker 3: hump or that fear of whatever this injury has put
- 38:42Speaker 3: into him, I think he'll be just fine. Because we
- 38:45Speaker 3: saw the level. I thought he was playing really well
- 38:47Speaker 3: last year going into the playoffs. And I just feel
- 38:51Speaker 3: like if he can play up to that level, then
- 38:53Speaker 3: the Broncos are going to be one of the better
- 38:55Speaker 3: teams in the NFL. And it's going to be hard
- 38:57Speaker 3: for the Chiefs to be able to rival them.
- 39:01Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I think so too. You make a great point.
- 39:04Speaker 1: And one thing of Bo Nix, I don't know if
- 39:06Speaker 1: I brought it up on the pod last week, but
- 39:09Speaker 1: one thing that Bo Nix, he didn't do was he
- 39:12Speaker 1: didn't stay in the pocket.
- 39:13Speaker 2: He didn't stay comfortable.
- 39:15Speaker 1: Like it seems like now he's finally starting to find
- 39:17Speaker 1: his footing as far as with actually staying in the pocket.
- 39:21Speaker 1: And you saw that exactly this game. I feel like
- 39:23Speaker 1: that's why the offense looked a lot better than it
- 39:26Speaker 1: has these past weeks against a really good Chiefs defense.
- 39:30Speaker 1: But one thing I do want to say, and I
- 39:33Speaker 1: feel like nobody's mentioning it.
- 39:35Speaker 3: I forgot.
- 39:36Speaker 1: I think it was Danny Park and somebody like that
- 39:39Speaker 1: on First Things First. he he kind of convinced me
- 39:43Speaker 1: and i wanted to kind of bring up this point
- 39:45Speaker 1: is that maybe the chiefs they're good yes they are
- 39:49Speaker 1: good they're gonna make the playoffs for sure but i
- 39:53Speaker 1: just don't know if i buy them viable to be
- 39:56Speaker 1: as good as some of these other teams are and
- 40:00Speaker 1: and i'm gonna say this for this specific reason just
- 40:02Speaker 1: because how the schedule was laid out the first five
- 40:05Speaker 1: weeks so they beat the broncos yes you still get
- 40:08Speaker 1: credit for beating the broncos but i think this foregone
- 40:10Speaker 1: conclusion Broncos were off to a rough start. Davis Webb
- 40:13Speaker 1: was still calling plays at that time. The environment. Then
- 40:17Speaker 1: they beat the Colts in overtime. They beat the Dolphins,
- 40:20Speaker 1: which it was a tough game. They beat the Raiders.
- 40:22Speaker 1: They beat the Chargers. Then you finally face two teams
- 40:26Speaker 1: at this point of the season who are playing really good,
- 40:29Speaker 1: and they're really good, competent teams who we see in
- 40:32Speaker 1: the playoffs. They got shut down by Seattle. And then
- 40:35Speaker 1: the Broncos, they came back and won. So I'm saying...
- 40:39Speaker 1: We won't see another litmus test for the Chiefs because
- 40:43Speaker 1: they have the Jets, Falcons, Cardinals, which apparently the Cardinals,
- 40:47Speaker 1: maybe they're a sneaky team.
- 40:48Speaker 2: Who knows?
- 40:49Speaker 3: We'll see.
- 40:49Speaker 1: But they should win these next three games.
- 40:50Speaker 3: Carter Minshew goes back to his home in Arrowhead. He dominates.
- 40:58Speaker 2: And he dominates the Chiefs.
- 41:00Speaker 1: But the litmus test for the Chiefs, it's going to start.
- 41:05Speaker 1: On Thanksgiving, which I didn't even realize it's on Thanksgiving.
- 41:08Speaker 1: It's going to be a damn good game. Chiefs and Bills.
- 41:12Speaker 3: So you had Chiefs and Bills. They did.
- 41:16Speaker 1: They did. Shout out to the game Josh and Jesse
- 41:19Speaker 1: went to. So it's Chiefs and Bills, Chiefs and Rams,
- 41:24Speaker 1: Chiefs and Bengals, Patriots, and Niners. That five-game stretch, that's
- 41:29Speaker 1: where I'm really going.
- 41:30Speaker 3: To see how good is this Chiefs.
- 41:33Speaker 1: Team really going to be because if you lose three
- 41:37Speaker 1: of those games right there i hate to break it
- 41:40Speaker 1: to you but broncos i feel like they're going they're
- 41:43Speaker 1: gonna at least have 12 12 wins and as of
- 41:46Speaker 1: right now they have they have the conference or not
- 41:49Speaker 1: the conference they have the division right now just because
- 41:52Speaker 1: more conference wins so i'm just i'm just saying the
- 41:57Speaker 1: chiefs the start that they got off to yes it
- 42:00Speaker 1: still is impressive because you have to play the teams
- 42:02Speaker 1: that are in front of you Because some teams can't
- 42:04Speaker 1: do that, like we're going to talk about a little
- 42:05Speaker 1: bit later. You just can't beat the teams you should beat.
- 42:09Speaker 1: It's still impressive to beat the teams that are in
- 42:12Speaker 1: front of you, yes. But the teams that we now
- 42:14Speaker 1: know midway into the season, maybe they're not as good
- 42:17Speaker 1: as we thought. And the big weakness of if you
- 42:22Speaker 1: put sole attention on the Kenneth Walker, there's no reliable
- 42:27Speaker 1: receiver you could say that will be dependable for the Chiefs.
- 42:30Speaker 1: Because Rasheed Rice, yes, he has moments where he's good.
- 42:32Speaker 2: Yes, he does.
- 42:33Speaker 1: But he's not that consistent. I don't know exactly what happened.
- 42:36Speaker 1: Maybe because their run game wasn't good last year. So
- 42:39Speaker 1: they were just funneling him targets. So it made the
- 42:41Speaker 1: offense look or him look better than what he actually was.
- 42:44Speaker 1: xavier worthy we don't have to get into that taekwon
- 42:46Speaker 1: thornton who was our only deep reliable threat down the
- 42:49Speaker 1: field he fractured his ankle so they really need to
- 42:53Speaker 1: make a move for a receiver they they really need
- 42:56Speaker 1: to make a move because now at this point it's
- 42:59Speaker 1: like yes patch mahomes is great but if him and
- 43:03Speaker 1: 38 year old travis kelsey are going to beat us
- 43:05Speaker 1: so be it but we're not going to let kenneth
- 43:08Speaker 1: walker beat.
- 43:08Speaker 3: Us so it's no disrespect to mahomes yeah i think
- 43:13Speaker 3: the Seahawks just displayed on how to shut them down.
- 43:17Speaker 3: If you take away Kenneth Walker, it's going to be
- 43:19Speaker 3: hard for 38-year-old Travis Kelsey, and albeit it's Mahomes, so
- 43:25Speaker 3: you can't really doubt him. But at the end of
- 43:26Speaker 3: the day, when he doesn't have the best weapons, it's
- 43:29Speaker 3: going to be hard for him. And I feel like
- 43:31Speaker 3: this is the first time we've actually seen that, to
- 43:33Speaker 3: be honest, because he's always had a lack of weapons,
- 43:36Speaker 3: but he's had Travis Kelsey at his side, and he's had...
- 43:40Speaker 3: a young Travis Kelsey. This is an old, yeah, this
- 43:43Speaker 3: is an old Travis Kelsey. So I think this is
- 43:46Speaker 3: going to incline them to make a move at the
- 43:48Speaker 3: deadline because it probably, I don't know if it will
- 43:52Speaker 3: be big, but I think they are going to make
- 43:54Speaker 3: a move because they need people. They need someone to
- 43:56Speaker 3: be able to just go out there and play make.
- 44:00Speaker 3: And I'm not counting them out because it's Patrick Mahomes. Yeah.
- 44:03Speaker 3: If they make the playoffs, which I think they will,
- 44:08Speaker 3: it's still scary. He's, the best quarterback in the NFL
- 44:11Speaker 3: in the playoffs. Like, there's no doubt in my mind.
- 44:14Speaker 3: If I had to take quarterback to lead my team,
- 44:15Speaker 3: it'd be Patrick Mahomes. So, yeah, it's going to be interesting,
- 44:19Speaker 3: that five-week stretch you said, and it's going to show
- 44:22Speaker 3: who they really are. And I hope they make a
- 44:25Speaker 3: trade for someone. Maybe again, Josh Downs. But we'll see.
- 44:29Speaker 3: Maybe even George Pickens, the way the Cowboys are playing. Yeah,
- 44:33Speaker 3: maybe George Pickens.
- 44:34Speaker 1: But let's Let's get to the fun slate of games
- 44:37Speaker 1: right here, the 12 o'clock slate of games, because I
- 44:41Speaker 1: don't know. NFL scheduling, I know this is a whole
- 44:44Speaker 1: different conversation, but I feel like they had so many
- 44:46Speaker 1: great 12 o'clock games. And then, all right, let's just
- 44:49Speaker 1: have all the worst games at 3 o'clock in primetime.
- 44:53Speaker 2: I didn't get that at all.
- 44:55Speaker 3: I feel like the 3 o'clock games were better than
- 44:57Speaker 3: I anticipated, to be honest, but. Yeah, we were talking
- 45:00Speaker 3: about it before, and we were like, it's such a
- 45:03Speaker 3: boring slate of games, and then they ended up all right.
- 45:05Speaker 3: The Rams one, it's not that good. The New England
- 45:10Speaker 3: and Miami one, we knew who was going to win,
- 45:12Speaker 3: but my boy Malik made it interesting. And then the
- 45:16Speaker 3: Kansas City-Denver one was the best game, but yeah, I agree.
- 45:21Speaker 1: I mean, we knew that one was going to be good.
- 45:23Speaker 1: Just the other ones, it's like, man, they were better
- 45:25Speaker 1: than we thought. But just briefly... As far as these
- 45:29Speaker 1: high-scoring games right here before we get into the real
- 45:32Speaker 1: meat and potatoes, the Raiders-Jets and Titans-Bengals.
- 45:36Speaker 2: Just these two games right here.
- 45:37Speaker 3: The Raiders-Jets, bro. Just Gino and Kirk. Gino and Kirk
- 45:42Speaker 3: going crazy. Dude, for real, bro. It's so awesome to
- 45:45Speaker 3: freaking see the freaking unks of the league. Just actually
- 45:49Speaker 3: just going band for band. They're like, oh, you're going
- 45:51Speaker 3: to score? I bet I'm going to score. Oh, you're
- 45:53Speaker 3: going to? I'll score some more. Oh, you're going to score? Nah,
- 45:56Speaker 3: I'll just have Braylon Allen look like an absolute monster.
- 45:59Speaker 3: He had a career day, bro. And then Brock Bowers
- 46:01Speaker 3: out there. I'll let Mike Washington, bro. Mike Washington, let
- 46:05Speaker 3: me just give him 25 carries. Like, it's insane. Kirk,
- 46:09Speaker 3: 19 for 26, 247, three touchdowns. Come on, man. You
- 46:13Speaker 3: like that? Dude. Because I do. It's insane, bro. And
- 46:16Speaker 3: then Jentee. That's crazy. Two carries, nine yards.
- 46:20Speaker 1: Well, did you see what happened?
- 46:21Speaker 2: Did you see why he got benched?
- 46:24Speaker 3: No, I didn't. I was tuning in and out, but
- 46:26Speaker 3: I saw he had three for 64, which is crazy,
- 46:30Speaker 3: in the air.
- 46:32Speaker 2: He's a PPR merchant, bro. That's why he.
- 46:34Speaker 1: Changed his name to Dynasty.
- 46:36Speaker 3: No, but okay. Brock Bowers is such a dog.
- 46:40Speaker 1: Dude, Brock Bowers is so amazing. So why Gentee got benched?
- 46:45Speaker 1: And it's because what he said midweek and Clint Kubiak
- 46:49Speaker 1: said it because some reporter, I don't remember exactly how
- 46:53Speaker 1: the question was asked, but pretty much the premise of
- 46:56Speaker 1: the question was like, you guys have been struggling with
- 46:58Speaker 1: the run game. How are you guys going to get
- 47:00Speaker 1: this fixed? Ashton Gentry said this midweek. He's like, well,
- 47:04Speaker 1: based on the team that we're playing this week, we
- 47:06Speaker 1: should find a way to really get it going. And
- 47:09Speaker 1: that's why he was benched because he was talking smack
- 47:11Speaker 1: to the Jets. I just find it.
- 47:15Speaker 3: Okay.
- 47:17Speaker 1: Like I said, I'm a big, I'm a big advocate
- 47:20Speaker 1: for following other, other fans or other fan bases on Twitter.
- 47:26Speaker 1: And there's been a whole thing going around. Oh, Ashton
- 47:28Speaker 1: Gentry's a bust. Mike Washington's better. Let me tell you
- 47:32Speaker 1: guys this. Mike Washington, off of the 25 carries he had,
- 47:37Speaker 1: had 83 yards. It's like, okay, it's not bad, 3.3
- 47:42Speaker 1: yards per carry, but it could be a little bit better.
- 47:44Speaker 1: Ashton Genting, on five total touches, 73 yards. 73 yards.
- 47:52Speaker 1: So just imagine if you gave even five more carries
- 47:56Speaker 1: to Ashton Genting, just imagine how much more explosive that
- 48:00Speaker 1: would be. And I know we got into it last
- 48:02Speaker 1: week as far as Ashton Gentry. Like, O-line's not blocking
- 48:05Speaker 1: as well for him.
- 48:06Speaker 3: But I'm sorry. K-9 situation last year. It really is.
- 48:12Speaker 2: And, like, I don't know.
- 48:15Speaker 1: Just, like, in general, though, this was a really fun game.
- 48:19Speaker 1: Adani Mitchell had a great game, 7 for 142. I
- 48:23Speaker 1: think this is his best game. And Omar Cooper was
- 48:25Speaker 1: nonexistent this game. Like, I don't get after the last– Dude,
- 48:30Speaker 1: you should have known.
- 48:31Speaker 2: As soon as people got on the Omar Cooper.
- 48:33Speaker 3: Hype train, bro, you should have known. I started him
- 48:35Speaker 3: last week, and then he went crazy. And then this
- 48:38Speaker 3: week I started him, nothing. And I was like, dang,
- 48:42Speaker 3: that sucks. But yeah, Adonai Mitchell, shout out, bro. He
- 48:45Speaker 3: went crazy. He had some crazy catches.
- 48:48Speaker 2: No, he really did.
- 48:49Speaker 3: It was just fun to see the Raiders and the
- 48:50Speaker 3: Jets go back and forth. Going band for band. Like
- 48:53Speaker 3: everybody expected.
- 48:57Speaker 1: But talk about another game where teams went ban for ban.
- 49:00Speaker 1: Cam Ward and Joe Burrow.
- 49:02Speaker 3: Bro, this is why I still believe in Cam Ward, bro. Dude,
- 49:07Speaker 3: Cam Ward, some of those throws, bro. They're really good
- 49:12Speaker 3: this year. Bro, yes. We saw Sexy Dexy has made
- 49:16Speaker 3: such a big difference, like we were talking about with
- 49:18Speaker 3: Jeffrey Simmons. we've seen what he's done for this defense
- 49:22Speaker 3: he's they've shut down other opposing offenses and really held
- 49:26Speaker 3: plenty of teams yeah dj turner on the outside he's
- 49:30Speaker 3: one of the better corners i feel like in the
- 49:32Speaker 3: league that doesn't get talked about enough and It was
- 49:36Speaker 3: just an absolute back and forth. And then just dumb
- 49:40Speaker 3: mistakes like Chase Brown fumbling the ball. Like, I don't know,
- 49:45Speaker 3: just leading to a touchdown for them. And then, dude,
- 49:48Speaker 3: Joe Burrow, he's just one of the best.
- 49:51Speaker 2: Joe Burrow, he's an MVP favorite right now, bro.
- 49:55Speaker 3: Five touchdowns, three interceptions. That was an insane game. Six touchdowns, actually.
- 49:59Speaker 3: He had a rushing, bro.
- 50:00Speaker 1: He was slinging that thing. Dude, and all of them
- 50:03Speaker 1: was to Armani.
- 50:04Speaker 3: Hooker, bro.
- 50:05Speaker 1: All of them were to Armani Hooker, bro.
- 50:07Speaker 3: Yeah, Armani Hooker. Shout out, bro. And then I think T.
- 50:11Speaker 3: Higgins and Jamar Chase are displaying why they believe they're
- 50:15Speaker 3: the best wide receiver duo in the league. Insane, bro.
- 50:18Speaker 1: You know, here's something crazy. T. Higgins, he's on pace
- 50:20Speaker 1: for 1,800 yards right now.
- 50:22Speaker 3: Bro, I know. And that's why I think he's one
- 50:25Speaker 3: of the better wide receiver twos is because, albeit it is,
- 50:29Speaker 3: they're a high passing offense. They literally don't run the ball,
- 50:32Speaker 3: I think.
- 50:33Speaker 2: If they don't, 48 to 19, bro.
- 50:36Speaker 3: Yeah, bro. That's almost 30 more. I forgot what the
- 50:39Speaker 3: stat was, but I was watching it on a fantasy
- 50:42Speaker 3: YouTube video, and it was one of the lowest run
- 50:44Speaker 3: rates ever. Their neutral pass rate is, I think, the
- 50:48Speaker 3: highest in the NFL we've seen in a while. Yeah.
- 50:51Speaker 3: It's just insane. It's crazy. I'm going to throw that route, too,
- 50:54Speaker 3: and I have Joe Burrow, one of the best quarterbacks
- 50:57Speaker 3: in the league, one of the best football players we've
- 51:00Speaker 3: seen in a while coming out of college and going
- 51:02Speaker 3: into– The NFL, it's just, bro, it's so fun to
- 51:06Speaker 3: watch this Bengals team just absolutely light up whoever they
- 51:09Speaker 3: play against because most of the time this is what
- 51:12Speaker 3: they're going to do. It doesn't matter who you want.
- 51:15Speaker 3: They're just going to go absolutely freaking ham. They dropped 43,
- 51:19Speaker 3: which is crazy to me. Like, I don't know. How
- 51:24Speaker 3: do you allow freaking 36 points from the Titans?
- 51:27Speaker 1: Yeah. But honestly, it was Cam Ward making crazy throw
- 51:31Speaker 1: after crazy throw.
- 51:34Speaker 3: Like I said, I still believe in him because of
- 51:36Speaker 3: the flashes.
- 51:37Speaker 1: No, for real.
- 51:40Speaker 3: It's there. This was without Carnell Tate, too.
- 51:44Speaker 1: That's what makes it really crazy.
- 51:47Speaker 3: And Tony Pollard, bro. He might get traded, bro. He
- 51:53Speaker 3: might get freaking traded. Because of how good he's playing.
- 51:56Speaker 3: You give him all the carries and look what happens.
- 51:58Speaker 3: Tajay Spears is out injured. Come on. But yeah, it
- 52:01Speaker 3: was an exciting game to watch. Just back and forth.
- 52:04Speaker 3: And ultimately, the Bengals coming out on top. And I
- 52:07Speaker 3: think this is going to be their division now. With
- 52:10Speaker 3: Lamar being out the rest of the season. I don't
- 52:13Speaker 3: really buy the freaking Steelers. Steelers-Browns? I just don't buy them, bro.
- 52:20Speaker 1: No, I don't, bro.
- 52:21Speaker 3: I don't buy them. The Bengals did lose to them
- 52:24Speaker 3: in Week 3. And it was an away game, so
- 52:27Speaker 3: I mean... That could have played into it, but I
- 52:29Speaker 3: just don't see them really doing anything. I never buy
- 52:34Speaker 3: the Steelers. They're the same team every year. They are, bro.
- 52:39Speaker 3: They always have this... Last year, they had the same
- 52:41Speaker 3: thing where it's like they have this stretch, and then
- 52:44Speaker 3: they miraculously beat the Ravens to make it into the playoffs.
- 52:50Speaker 3: That was one of the crazier games I've seen. I
- 52:54Speaker 3: don't know. It's just... I think this is... bangles division
- 52:58Speaker 3: now and it's going to be exciting to see them
- 53:01Speaker 3: in the playoffs because i think regardless if they win
- 53:03Speaker 3: or if they don't they're going to make it um
- 53:05Speaker 3: because if the sealers do end up being fine or
- 53:09Speaker 3: better than we expect then they will win it and
- 53:12Speaker 3: i don't see the browns winning the division sorry i
- 53:15Speaker 3: just don't like it's the browns and then they have
- 53:19Speaker 3: a they have a lighter schedule coming up if i
- 53:23Speaker 3: will say they play the the bangles play the falcons
- 53:26Speaker 3: and then the stealers good game The Commies, who I
- 53:29Speaker 3: think are, they're mid. It'll be a closer game. I
- 53:32Speaker 3: don't know. We'll see. And then the Saints, worst team
- 53:34Speaker 3: in the league. Shout out, Brecken.
- 53:36Speaker 1: Shout out, Brecken.
- 53:37Speaker 3: And then the Browns, Chiefs. That's going to be an
- 53:41Speaker 3: awesome game. The Panthers, Colts, and then Ravens without Lamar.
- 53:46Speaker 3: And then Browns to end it. So it's going to
- 53:48Speaker 3: be an interesting slate of games.
- 53:50Speaker 1: It's theirs to lose, in all honesty.
- 53:53Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree. I don't see the other teams making
- 53:56Speaker 3: a push. And it's just going to be fun. seeing
- 53:58Speaker 3: Joe Burrow do what he does, man. He's one of
- 54:00Speaker 3: the most entertaining quarterbacks. This offense, one of the most entertaining.
- 54:03Speaker 3: And this is why Zach Taylor stays because of performances
- 54:07Speaker 3: like this. Because of offense, yeah. It doesn't matter. I
- 54:10Speaker 3: haven't been a fan of Zach Taylor, especially due to
- 54:13Speaker 3: his late-game decisions over the years where I think it
- 54:16Speaker 3: was against a year or two ago against the Ravens
- 54:21Speaker 3: where he just makes boneheaded mistakes. I think it was
- 54:25Speaker 3: against the Ravens. They literally... I don't know. I feel
- 54:29Speaker 3: like I've loved the Bengals for a while. And then
- 54:32Speaker 3: this year I switched over to the Ravens just because
- 54:34Speaker 3: of Jesse Minter. But, dude, it was– I told you guys.
- 54:39Speaker 3: I told you in Brecken, bro. Okay, bro, because freaking
- 54:42Speaker 3: Lamar got hurt. I think if Lamar didn't get hurt,
- 54:45Speaker 3: I'd still have the Ravens. I just think Declan– what
- 54:48Speaker 3: Declan Doyle's been doing is insane. He's one of the
- 54:51Speaker 3: youngest coordinators. Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah, bro. Declan Doyle is
- 54:55Speaker 3: an absolute dog. And he's funneling targets to Zay Flowers.
- 54:58Speaker 3: But I think if Lamar was healthy, which he won't be,
- 55:01Speaker 3: I think he's out the rest of the season with
- 55:03Speaker 3: a thumb injury. Yeah, he probably will be. I think
- 55:06Speaker 3: if Tyler Huntley can come back, maybe they can make
- 55:09Speaker 3: a playoff push, maybe get in there. But I don't know.
- 55:12Speaker 3: But it'd be so fun to see. Then maybe Lamar
- 55:14Speaker 3: comes back. But, yeah, I'm just rambling at this point.
- 55:18Speaker 3: Go ahead. Talk about some of the stuff you saw. No.
- 55:23Speaker 1: As far as I'm telling you, with this Bengals defense,
- 55:26Speaker 1: they've been a lot better. I mean, again, what we
- 55:29Speaker 1: talked about as far as defensive tackles, I said it
- 55:31Speaker 1: from the very beginning. Dexter Lawrence, he's made that much
- 55:35Speaker 1: of an impact where it looks that crazy. And I
- 55:38Speaker 1: just want to talk about just the AFC North, just
- 55:41Speaker 1: in general right here because of Steelers. I mean, I
- 55:44Speaker 1: know they have Philly coming up. They have the Ravens twice.
- 55:48Speaker 1: I know they have the Bengals Sunday night, I believe.
- 55:50Speaker 3: Right.
- 55:52Speaker 1: I think bare minimum, they're going to get to 9
- 55:54Speaker 1: to 10 wins. It's just a matter of the rest
- 55:57Speaker 1: of the AFC. I don't know how it's going to
- 55:59Speaker 1: shape up, but it's kind of going to be in
- 56:00Speaker 1: their favor. AFC is always so competitive. But you kind
- 56:05Speaker 1: of already pointed at that game, but the Browns and Steelers,
- 56:09Speaker 1: that one, honestly, the Steelers, they have a formula. They
- 56:14Speaker 1: stop the run. And they're going to run the ball
- 56:17Speaker 1: on you. That's their formula. And Aaron Rodgers doesn't have
- 56:21Speaker 1: to do too much.
- 56:23Speaker 3: Not when you have Jalen Warren, the best running back
- 56:25Speaker 3: in the NFL, on your side. He looks so good, bro.
- 56:30Speaker 1: At this point, Jalen Warren is just an absolute monster.
- 56:34Speaker 1: I mean, I kind of expected the Steelers to win.
- 56:36Speaker 1: I thought it was going to be a little bit close. But,
- 56:38Speaker 1: I mean, Steelers, they showed why they're levels ahead of
- 56:41Speaker 1: the Browns. The Browns, I feel like their record's a
- 56:43Speaker 1: little inflated right now. especially with all the game-winning drives,
- 56:46Speaker 1: like you said. Because if we went just off of
- 56:48Speaker 1: game-winning drives, Bo Nix and Deshaun Watson would be the
- 56:51Speaker 1: most clutch quarterbacks over the past, over this.
- 56:54Speaker 2: Entire year right now.
- 56:55Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 56:56Speaker 1: But, like, I want to get into the Ravens and
- 56:59Speaker 1: Bills because Lamar Jackson, her just finally comes back.
- 57:02Speaker 3: Literally the first play. I'm so disappointed.
- 57:08Speaker 1: And I think he broke, or I don't know the
- 57:10Speaker 1: exact IR, MRI that they did, but I think it's
- 57:13Speaker 1: a broken thumb. You saw it. I think this is
- 57:16Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson's last year as a Raven. Guaranteed contract coming
- 57:20Speaker 1: up is going to be $ 84 million. $ 84 million. So
- 57:24Speaker 1: this is a different situation compared to other quarterbacks or
- 57:28Speaker 1: anything else where it's like, okay, we're going to take.
- 57:30Speaker 2: A dead cap hit, whatever.
- 57:32Speaker 1: But $ 84 million on the books is fully guaranteed. So
- 57:37Speaker 1: maybe he could get traded somewhere else. I know there's
- 57:40Speaker 1: rumors about Atlanta, Seattle, Minnesota.
- 57:43Speaker 3: Atlanta, bro. Him in Kodak. Philly. No, Kodak's not even
- 57:46Speaker 3: from there. He's from there. What do I say? He's
- 57:49Speaker 3: already with Kodak. My bad. Yeah, he's already with Kodak.
- 57:52Speaker 3: Him in the ATL. Him in the ATL.
- 57:54Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 57:55Speaker 2: Maybe Philly, too, as much as I wouldn't want to
- 57:58Speaker 2: see that.
- 57:59Speaker 1: Philly would look, would be pretty nice. So there's different
- 58:04Speaker 1: options for Lamar Jackson.
- 58:05Speaker 2: I just think that.
- 58:06Speaker 3: We'll do the Jared Goff, Matthew Stafford with them. We'll go.
- 58:10Speaker 3: We get Lamar, they get Dak. I would hate that, bro.
- 58:14Speaker 3: Low key, if the Cowboys think about trading Dak, the
- 58:20Speaker 3: Ravens would be a good spot.
- 58:23Speaker 1: Dude, he would really fit well in that Declan Doyle offense, bro.
- 58:28Speaker 3: Like, he would fit amazing, bro. I think they would
- 58:31Speaker 3: be automatic. Like, they already were contenders, in my opinion,
- 58:34Speaker 3: with Lamar. But if you put Dak in there, that
- 58:40Speaker 3: dude is such a good passer. Not like Lamar's not
- 58:41Speaker 3: a good passer, but dude. That would be crazy.
- 58:44Speaker 1: As far as the Declan Doyle pass-heavy offense. But this
- 58:48Speaker 1: is one guy that I want to get into. Because
- 58:50Speaker 1: I kind of think the writings on the wall is
- 58:53Speaker 1: going to be a new Jesse Minter.
- 58:55Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 58:56Speaker 1: It's going to be a new Jesse Minter-like era.
- 59:00Speaker 3: Yeah. Maybe they trade Derrick Henry. Maybe. I think it's
- 59:03Speaker 3: on the table. No, I could see that. Yeah, I
- 59:06Speaker 3: could see that. I could see that. There's a year left. Yeah.
- 59:10Speaker 3: he's older.
- 59:11Speaker 1: Maybe he goes to like a Seattle. Maybe he goes
- 59:15Speaker 1: to Minnesota. Maybe he goes to some team along that line.
- 59:20Speaker 3: Because Lamar's out last season. I don't think they're going to.
- 59:24Speaker 3: I don't think Jesse Minter wants to.
- 59:25Speaker 1: You just re-signed Zay Flowers.
- 59:27Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think he wants to tank if we're
- 59:29Speaker 3: being honest, but Like what other option do you have
- 59:31Speaker 3: if Tyler Huntley is hurt? Yeah. Maybe we see them
- 59:34Speaker 3: sell off some assets. And I can buy that. I
- 59:37Speaker 3: didn't think of that until now. That's interesting. It's not
- 59:41Speaker 3: like Derrick Henry isn't producing. He's still going crazy. But
- 59:44Speaker 3: like you said, one year on his contract. And without Lamar,
- 59:48Speaker 3: he just can't really get it done. Yeah. Because it is.
- 59:52Speaker 3: And their own line is demolished right now. It's depleted.
- 59:56Speaker 1: Yeah. It really is depleted really bad.
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: I will say they made a trade for Cam Juergens,
- 1:00:01Speaker 3: which was a really good trade to sure up their
- 1:00:03Speaker 3: center position. But I think Vega... Did he play this week?
- 1:00:08Speaker 3: I know he got hurt.
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: No, I don't think he played this week, yeah.
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: Yeah, because he got hurt last week. So I could
- 1:00:14Speaker 3: buy that. It would be interesting to see. I really
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: like the Ravens, especially with the addition of Jesse Minter.
- 1:00:21Speaker 3: So like you said, that'd be interesting to see them
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: maybe just take on a rebuild. Not even like a
- 1:00:28Speaker 3: full rebuild, just... It's like a retool. Yeah, retool. Because
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: I think if you do give those people away, you're
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: going to get significant amount. Yeah, you'll get one of
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: the best MVPs we've seen in our lifetime or in
- 1:00:43Speaker 3: this decade.
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: He's a definition of a boom bus player. Either he's
- 1:00:48Speaker 1: injured or he's going to be first team all pro.
- 1:00:50Speaker 3: I really think there's no. Because, dude, we see what
- 1:00:54Speaker 3: he can do. He's probably the best running quarterback we've seen. Oh,
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: for sure. Like, dude, this dude can run it. He's
- 1:01:02Speaker 3: better than Michael Vick. No, yeah, he's better than Michael Vick.
- 1:01:04Speaker 3: I was going to say there might be, but it's not.
- 1:01:06Speaker 3: And we've seen the leap he's made passing, and it's
- 1:01:10Speaker 3: like no other. That year he won the MVP was
- 1:01:13Speaker 3: a crazy year, albeit we believe it should have been Dax.
- 1:01:16Speaker 3: And then the year Josh Allen won it, just as crazy.
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: Yeah, just as crazy. And he got first-team All-Pro.
- 1:01:23Speaker 3: Yeah, he got first-team All-Pro, but he won MVP. So he,
- 1:01:27Speaker 3: how many times has he won it? Two?
- 1:01:30Speaker 1: Too yeah yeah we've seen what he.
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: Can do he's one of the best quarterbacks in the
- 1:01:35Speaker 3: nfl yeah and i mean it's not like he's going
- 1:01:37Speaker 3: anywhere anytime soon age or production wise it's just yeah
- 1:01:41Speaker 3: him and joe burrow are almost the same you're either
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: like you said boom buzz either you're either injured or
- 1:01:47Speaker 3: you're like the best quarterback.
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: In the league because it was rookie year made the
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: playoffs mvp year hurt hurt mvp followed up with the
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: first team all pro hurt yeah so like it just so.
- 1:02:03Speaker 3: Like and then they just can't get past the chief
- 1:02:06Speaker 3: like it's so hard because that one year he won
- 1:02:08Speaker 3: mvp bro i was i wanted them to go so bad.
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: Yeah so that was our best chance that was our
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: best chance i.
- 1:02:15Speaker 3: Just wanted them to go so bad because i don't
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: know just the ravens i don't it's just a team
- 1:02:21Speaker 3: i like i like the color purple i guess i
- 1:02:23Speaker 3: don't know but they're just a fun team to watch
- 1:02:26Speaker 3: um yeah And yeah, it would be interesting to see.
- 1:02:29Speaker 3: I wonder what direction they would go if they did give,
- 1:02:32Speaker 3: sell him, like trade him or something. Cause I don't know.
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: She would. Okay.
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: I know it sounds like burying everything that goes. Hopefully
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: everything goes well with Jalen Hurts. Maybe you take on
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: a contract where Jalen Hurts and like a bunch of picks.
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, three first round picks.
- 1:02:51Speaker 3: That's just so.
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: Or like Atlanta.
- 1:02:53Speaker 3: If I'm Declan Doyle. I'm begging you not to do this,
- 1:02:59Speaker 3: which I don't know if they will, but we're just
- 1:03:01Speaker 3: talking about it at the same time. I can see it,
- 1:03:05Speaker 3: but there's two sides of it. It's Lamar Jackson, but
- 1:03:08Speaker 3: then he's always hurt. Yeah. Because he just can't stay healthy,
- 1:03:12Speaker 3: and then in the playoffs, it doesn't work out for him. So, yeah.
- 1:03:17Speaker 3: That's an interesting thing to look at. No, for sure.
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: All right, well, it's time to get to— It's time, bro.
- 1:03:27Speaker 3: It's time.
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: We've been avoiding this for an hour, but it's the
- 1:03:31Speaker 1: Cowboys versus the Cardinals. And what's the Cowboys? They were
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: up 27-14 in the fourth quarter. And Gardner Minshew and
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: Tyler Algier, they stormed back and win the game in overtime.
- 1:03:42Speaker 1: Should have been 31-30, but Chad Ryland missed the extra point.
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: But going overtime, win the game.
- 1:03:47Speaker 3: Yeah, just put us out of our misery already.
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: Yeah. Ryan, what did you see from this game?
- 1:03:51Speaker 3: Oh. Y'all know me and Fonzo despise each other. We
- 1:03:56Speaker 3: always disagree, but I think we're going to agree today.
- 1:03:58Speaker 3: And I know I've been defending Brian Schottenheimer. I've been
- 1:04:04Speaker 3: on his side because our defense is so bad. But
- 1:04:09Speaker 3: I think we have to move on. I don't think
- 1:04:13Speaker 3: it's middle of the season because obviously Jerry's like, they
- 1:04:17Speaker 3: asked him, he's like, I'm not focused on that. And
- 1:04:20Speaker 3: I mean, in my opinion, I don't think you should
- 1:04:22Speaker 3: be when you have this talent. When you, and especially
- 1:04:27Speaker 3: with the trades he's made, because we've always faulted Jerry Jones.
- 1:04:31Speaker 3: We've always been like, oh, it's Jerry. He doesn't get
- 1:04:33Speaker 3: all this stuff. No, he's working now. He's going to work.
- 1:04:36Speaker 3: He's getting in his bag, bro. He just got his JPJ.
- 1:04:39Speaker 3: He just got his Quentin Williams, Rashawn Gary. I mean,
- 1:04:42Speaker 3: not like he's been playing insane, but he still got
- 1:04:45Speaker 3: us insane draft picks. Got us Kenny Clark, Otito Abonia,
- 1:04:49Speaker 3: who's been one of the best run defenders in the league.
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: He's been one of the best run, yeah, yeah.
- 1:04:54Speaker 3: Like, probably the best, statistically, and he's done all of
- 1:04:59Speaker 3: this for us, and we've just done nothing, the team
- 1:05:03Speaker 3: has done nothing with it, we've always begged Jerry, can
- 1:05:06Speaker 3: you just make moves, he does it, what happens, nothing,
- 1:05:09Speaker 3: absolutely nothing, this defense is lackluster, we need to, Christian
- 1:05:13Speaker 3: Parker needs to be gone too, he needs to be gone,
- 1:05:16Speaker 3: this is, it is the, like I said last time,
- 1:05:20Speaker 3: maybe it's not the coordinator, it's the players but the
- 1:05:23Speaker 3: players are playing well at this point most of the
- 1:05:26Speaker 3: time the players have weren't good at all the players
- 1:05:29Speaker 3: weren't playing well but now we see that the players
- 1:05:31Speaker 3: are playing well and he has good players at his
- 1:05:34Speaker 3: disposal albeit they were injured we have been injured and
- 1:05:37Speaker 3: then this was Kobe Durant's probably second right game back
- 1:05:41Speaker 3: second or third game back Jalen Thompson still isn't back
- 1:05:44Speaker 3: PJ Locke just got back JPJ has been adjusting to
- 1:05:49Speaker 3: this new defense and then he got hurt left the
- 1:05:52Speaker 3: game And then Caleb Downs leaving the game. I don't know, man.
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: It's just they look better. The defense did look better,
- 1:06:01Speaker 3: I will say. And then those two guys went out,
- 1:06:05Speaker 3: and it's just horrible, which I still don't think is
- 1:06:07Speaker 3: an excuse to lose this game. There's no reason why
- 1:06:10Speaker 3: your defense should give up four touchdowns and four drives
- 1:06:14Speaker 3: to Gardner Minshew, who wasn't even starting for the Cardinals,
- 1:06:17Speaker 3: who's a bottom of the league, bottom of the barrel team.
- 1:06:20Speaker 3: They will show flashes of being competitive. They beat the Rams. But, dude,
- 1:06:25Speaker 3: this can't happen. You can't let a backup's backup come
- 1:06:29Speaker 3: in and beat you. This is worse than J.J. McCarthy. No,
- 1:06:33Speaker 3: probably not. But whenever J.J. McCarthy came in for the Giants,
- 1:06:37Speaker 3: this is so disappointing. And then we let Tyler. We
- 1:06:40Speaker 3: were stopping the run all day. And then we watched
- 1:06:42Speaker 3: Tyler Algier come in and absolutely dominate, bro.
- 1:06:45Speaker 2: Two plays at 100 yards.
- 1:06:47Speaker 3: Two plays. That's our defense in a nutshell. Two plays
- 1:06:50Speaker 3: 100 yards whenever we were playing just fine. And then
- 1:06:55Speaker 3: the offense, it's just so– it's either too conservative or too, like,
- 1:07:02Speaker 3: high– Passive. Not high power.
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: Yeah, too pass-heavy.
- 1:07:06Speaker 3: Because the Packers game, way too pass-heavy, no runs. Week
- 1:07:11Speaker 3: after that, he balances it out, and it looks amazing. Yeah.
- 1:07:15Speaker 3: And then we play this game, and he's too conservative.
- 1:07:19Speaker 3: And the run's not working either. I don't know. The
- 1:07:24Speaker 3: play calls towards the end of the... I think the
- 1:07:27Speaker 3: reason I do fault the defense here too, like I
- 1:07:29Speaker 3: will say me and Fonz are going to agree on
- 1:07:31Speaker 3: getting rid of Schottenheimer, but the reason I fault the
- 1:07:34Speaker 3: defense is because Shottie gave us that lead. We had
- 1:07:38Speaker 3: the lead 27. We were up. And then the defense
- 1:07:41Speaker 3: gives up four and four drive. And the offense should
- 1:07:46Speaker 3: be able to go back and score, like answer. But
- 1:07:49Speaker 3: at the same time, our defense can't do that. And
- 1:07:52Speaker 3: it's just so disappointing to see this team. I was
- 1:07:55Speaker 3: telling the guys in the group chat, we have win-now players.
- 1:07:59Speaker 3: We have Quentin Williams, who's not old, but he's on
- 1:08:03Speaker 3: the older side. He's about to be 30 years old, 29,
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: 30 years old. We have Kenny Clark, same thing. We
- 1:08:09Speaker 3: have Dak Prescott, who's 33, 34. We have young receivers.
- 1:08:12Speaker 3: We have a 26-year-old running back who, for a running
- 1:08:17Speaker 3: back that's getting to the peak of your career, the
- 1:08:20Speaker 3: end of your career, Running back lives are not that long. So,
- 1:08:25Speaker 3: and we have all these players, you know, and this
- 1:08:28Speaker 3: is such a win now team. We're making win now moves.
- 1:08:30Speaker 3: We're trading draft picks that could be valuable to us
- 1:08:35Speaker 3: to go get these players, to go get a Joey
- 1:08:37Speaker 3: Porter Jr. Who, and George Pickens, who need contracts and
- 1:08:42Speaker 3: we are getting them at this moment.
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: When they need contracts.
- 1:08:46Speaker 3: Yeah, we're going all in. This isn't a fault on Jerry.
- 1:08:49Speaker 3: This is a fault on the coaching staff and how
- 1:08:52Speaker 3: they're not getting the most out of their players. And
- 1:08:54Speaker 3: it's so bamboozling to me how last year this was
- 1:08:58Speaker 3: literally one of the best offenses we've ever seen it's
- 1:09:04Speaker 3: people were talking about this offense it was the greatest
- 1:09:06Speaker 3: offense of all time because of how good they were
- 1:09:09Speaker 3: playing just lighting up and we're just like yep we're
- 1:09:12Speaker 3: expecting the same thing yep we're gonna come into the
- 1:09:14Speaker 3: season our defense is gonna be better they don't even
- 1:09:17Speaker 3: have to be good just have to be mid And
- 1:09:20Speaker 3: it's like, I think about it like a golf game,
- 1:09:23Speaker 3: like your golf game. Whenever your driving's good, your irons
- 1:09:28Speaker 3: are good, and then your putter, or like your short
- 1:09:30Speaker 3: game sucks. Yeah, and then maybe one day you'll go
- 1:09:34Speaker 3: out to the course, your driving sucks, but your scoring's
- 1:09:38Speaker 3: fine because you can get up and down. You can
- 1:09:40Speaker 3: get near the green, get up and down, or maybe
- 1:09:43Speaker 3: your irons suck, but your driving and your short game
- 1:09:46Speaker 3: is good. Like it can't be all good at once, apparently,
- 1:09:49Speaker 3: for the Cowboys. I've never seen it where it was good.
- 1:09:52Speaker 3: And when it was, we freaking just got bullied. The
- 1:09:57Speaker 3: freaking Packers games every year, we've lost to them in
- 1:09:59Speaker 3: the playoffs. Or the Lions that year when we played. Yeah,
- 1:10:06Speaker 3: when we played the Lions, we had a pretty good
- 1:10:08Speaker 3: all-around team and then just lose. It was the Packers,
- 1:10:12Speaker 3: I believe. We lost to the Packers with a Dez catch.
- 1:10:15Speaker 3: Just unfortunate. And that was one of our better offense
- 1:10:18Speaker 3: and defenses that I've seen in my lifetime. And it's
- 1:10:21Speaker 3: just so disappointing. I don't know. I don't look forward
- 1:10:25Speaker 3: to watching them anymore, bro. I don't. It makes me
- 1:10:29Speaker 3: so sad to watch this team every Sunday. What do
- 1:10:33Speaker 3: I expect? Last week, we were talking about it. I
- 1:10:35Speaker 3: was like, yay, the Cowboys won. But we gave up
- 1:10:39Speaker 3: that many points to Tanner McKee.
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: Tanner McKee?
- 1:10:43Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't know. It just... I don't know what
- 1:10:46Speaker 3: they do from here. I don't think we win the
- 1:10:48Speaker 3: division anymore, even though it is possible. I don't think
- 1:10:51Speaker 3: we win it. Maybe we can get second, but the
- 1:10:56Speaker 3: commanders look better. I think they're the ones who are
- 1:10:59Speaker 3: going to win the division, and then the Giants will
- 1:11:01Speaker 3: come in second because their defense is just– I think
- 1:11:06Speaker 3: their defense is one of the better ones, and then
- 1:11:08Speaker 3: their offense. J.J. McCarthy looks like a whole new freaking quarterback.
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: Yeah, he looks actually decent.
- 1:11:15Speaker 3: John Harbaugh is a big part of that, or Jim Harbaugh.
- 1:11:17Speaker 3: I get them mixed up.
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: John, yeah.
- 1:11:20Speaker 3: John Harbaugh just looks like that's what happens when you
- 1:11:23Speaker 3: bring in a good coach. He is one of the
- 1:11:26Speaker 3: better coaches, and we saw that with the Ravens, and
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: he's displaying it with the Giants. And I don't know, man.
- 1:11:33Speaker 3: It's just disappointing to see this team. This should not
- 1:11:36Speaker 3: be a loss. I literally was telling the guys, I
- 1:11:39Speaker 3: was like, I had Red Zone on and the Cowboys
- 1:11:42Speaker 3: game on, and I was like focusing on Red Zone
- 1:11:44Speaker 3: because I was like, Yeah, we got this, baby. Yeah,
- 1:11:46Speaker 3: we got it. But then in the back of my mind,
- 1:11:48Speaker 3: like what's crazy is I still had that doubt. I
- 1:11:52Speaker 3: texted in the group chat. I was like, Damien, if
- 1:11:54Speaker 3: we win, it's your fault. And I didn't have to
- 1:11:56Speaker 3: say this, but I was like, if we lose, it's
- 1:11:58Speaker 3: also your fault. Because that's just the type of feeling
- 1:12:02Speaker 3: the Cowboys give you when you're watching them on a
- 1:12:04Speaker 3: week-to-week basis. And I'm not even surprised. You never know
- 1:12:06Speaker 3: what the hell to expect. I don't think I've ever
- 1:12:09Speaker 3: watched us beat the freaking Cardinals in my life. I
- 1:12:12Speaker 3: don't think I have.
- 1:12:13Speaker 1: No.
- 1:12:14Speaker 3: Oh, 2017. The matchups I do remember is like... I
- 1:12:20Speaker 3: remember when Patrick Peterson was a rookie. They freaking killed us.
- 1:12:24Speaker 3: And then I remember Kyler Murray a couple years ago
- 1:12:29Speaker 3: on Monday Night Football. He went crazy. I think he
- 1:12:33Speaker 3: had the long rushing touchdown.
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:12:36Speaker 3: And then last year, Marv working Deron Blank. And then
- 1:12:40Speaker 3: this year, Gardner Minshew... Working us at 18. I don't know.
- 1:12:45Speaker 3: It's just so disappointing. I don't know how to feel
- 1:12:47Speaker 3: about this team. I don't know where we go from
- 1:12:49Speaker 3: here because, like I said, we have all these win-now players.
- 1:12:53Speaker 3: But I just don't have hope. I don't have hope
- 1:12:58Speaker 3: that they're going to be good anymore. Like, it's so
- 1:13:01Speaker 3: sad to watch this team, bro. And I feel bad
- 1:13:05Speaker 3: for all the fans, like our parents, bro. They freaking
- 1:13:10Speaker 3: saw the glory days.
- 1:13:11Speaker 1: Nah, they got to watch Super Bowls.
- 1:13:13Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, but being a fan for that long
- 1:13:16Speaker 3: and then being in a drought, you know this team
- 1:13:21Speaker 3: is supposed to be good. We're America's team. And you
- 1:13:24Speaker 3: wonder why people hate this team. Allegedly. Yeah, allegedly. You
- 1:13:28Speaker 3: wonder why people hate this team. Because they freaking suck,
- 1:13:31Speaker 3: that's why. They get hyped up every year. If you
- 1:13:35Speaker 3: go back and listen to our preseason pod or like
- 1:13:38Speaker 3: first before predictions and stuff, we were going... Yeah, Fonzo's like,
- 1:13:42Speaker 3: I think I'm drinking too much Cowboys juice. And I
- 1:13:45Speaker 3: was convinced, bro. I was, bro. Caleb Downs. Caleb Downs
- 1:13:49Speaker 3: fell to us. Christian Parker. Christian Parker, who was supposed
- 1:13:52Speaker 3: to be this mastermind. And I feel like Caleb Downs
- 1:13:55Speaker 3: has played good, but in coverage, he's looked like a lackluster,
- 1:13:58Speaker 3: in my opinion. Like Trey McBride. He said, you're a
- 1:14:02Speaker 3: first-round pick? He's like, you're a first-round pick. Yeah, he is, bro.
- 1:14:05Speaker 3: Leave him alone, man. In college, he didn't allow any receptions,
- 1:14:10Speaker 3: I think, and, like, 800 snaps or something, something crazy
- 1:14:13Speaker 3: like that, and then he comes to the NFL, and
- 1:14:15Speaker 3: it's just a whole different level, which I will say,
- 1:14:17Speaker 3: in the run game, he looks amazing. He had that
- 1:14:20Speaker 3: one stop on Jermiah Love to hold them, to stop them.
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: Yeah, on fourth down.
- 1:14:25Speaker 3: Yeah, on fourth down at the goal line. But, dude,
- 1:14:29Speaker 3: it's just disappointing to watch this team. I don't know
- 1:14:33Speaker 3: if I have much more to say. Like, just get
- 1:14:36Speaker 3: rid of Schottenheimer. We got to bring in a coach who,
- 1:14:39Speaker 3: I don't know, who wants to win, who's not. When
- 1:14:43Speaker 3: he first came in, I was like, this is a
- 1:14:44Speaker 3: player's coach. They're going to get behind him. They're going
- 1:14:45Speaker 3: to want to play for him. They want this guy.
- 1:14:48Speaker 3: And they did for a little bit, and then you
- 1:14:51Speaker 3: can only do that so much. You have to actually
- 1:14:55Speaker 3: get into your team. You've got to get all the
- 1:14:57Speaker 3: talent you can out of them, and I don't think
- 1:14:59Speaker 3: this coaching staff does this. And I don't know who
- 1:15:02Speaker 3: we– maybe I don't think Brian Flores will become available
- 1:15:06Speaker 3: because I feel like he's going to want– and you
- 1:15:07Speaker 3: have talked about it. We need a defensive coach now.
- 1:15:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:15:11Speaker 3: We need a defensive coach. We've had offensive coaches. Look
- 1:15:14Speaker 3: how it's panned out. Like, it's Dak, too. Like, he's
- 1:15:17Speaker 3: just one of the better quarterbacks in the league. He's
- 1:15:18Speaker 3: going to produce under any scheme. Under any coach, yeah. Yeah,
- 1:15:23Speaker 3: he's going to produce. And he's just not producing right
- 1:15:27Speaker 3: now like we want him to. And also, I will say,
- 1:15:31Speaker 3: there are times this season where he's just looked like pedestrian. There's, like,
- 1:15:37Speaker 3: throws where he'll make it, make throws, and he's like, Like,
- 1:15:40Speaker 3: what are we doing? This isn't the Dak we know,
- 1:15:43Speaker 3: and he's like a victim to his own product because
- 1:15:45Speaker 3: of how good he can be. So we rate him
- 1:15:47Speaker 3: so highly. Then he goes out and plays like how
- 1:15:51Speaker 3: he has. Yeah, I don't know. This is just a
- 1:15:55Speaker 3: weird place to be as a fan. And as a team,
- 1:15:59Speaker 3: I don't know where they go from here. I'm interested
- 1:16:01Speaker 3: to see. I don't know if they're still going to
- 1:16:03Speaker 3: make that trade for Josh Sweat because we've been linked
- 1:16:06Speaker 3: to him heavily. So I don't know. And I mean,
- 1:16:09Speaker 3: maybe that move helps us get over the edge, but
- 1:16:12Speaker 3: we got a hard schedule coming up, if I'm being honest.
- 1:16:16Speaker 3: We have the Colts next, and then we have the Niners.
- 1:16:19Speaker 3: And we play the Rams, I believe. Yeah, we have Titans.
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: Then we have Eagles. Then we have Rams, Seahawks. Then
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: we have.
- 1:16:30Speaker 3: Yeah, we have the... Like you said, the Colts next
- 1:16:35Speaker 3: should be a win, but I don't know with this team. Niners...
- 1:16:38Speaker 3: probably get obliterated. Titans, we saw what they did to
- 1:16:41Speaker 3: the Bengals. I don't even know if we win that game.
- 1:16:45Speaker 3: The Eagles, at home, I expect us win that game.
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: Seahawks, I don't know, bro.
- 1:16:51Speaker 3: They're probably going to kill us. They have a bye,
- 1:16:53Speaker 3: then going to the Rams. And then Rams, and then Jags,
- 1:16:57Speaker 3: who look good, Giants, Commanders. So, let me see. Off
- 1:17:02Speaker 3: the top of my head, that's I'll take the Colts win,
- 1:17:05Speaker 3: Titans win, Eagles win.
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: I can't even say for sure it wins now, bro.
- 1:17:10Speaker 3: I'm not even going to lie to you. No, I'm
- 1:17:12Speaker 3: just like, if we're being optimistic, like somewhat optimistic, I'd
- 1:17:15Speaker 3: say Colts, Titans, like should win games. The Eagles, that's it. Yeah.
- 1:17:23Speaker 3: The Giants, we should win, but they're better than us.
- 1:17:27Speaker 3: They're better than us right now. And then the Commanders,
- 1:17:29Speaker 3: we should win, but they're also better than us. I think,
- 1:17:33Speaker 3: Week two, me and my dad were talking about it.
- 1:17:36Speaker 3: If Jaden Daniels didn't get hurt, I think they'd win
- 1:17:39Speaker 3: that game. Honestly. Like, Marcus Mariota was tearing us up.
- 1:17:44Speaker 3: He was, bro. Dude, that dude was evading sacks like...
- 1:17:48Speaker 3: He was Lamar Jackson. Dude, oh man. I don't know
- 1:17:51Speaker 3: where to go from here. You got the floor now, bro. Well,
- 1:17:57Speaker 3: whenever I think of.
- 1:17:59Speaker 1: Just random. Whenever I think of greatest teams of all time...
- 1:18:03Speaker 1: I think of, obviously, there's the 72 Dolphins, the 07 Patriots,
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: 2019 Chiefs. You could even throw in the 90s Cowboys
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: in there. You could even throw in the greatest show
- 1:18:13Speaker 1: on turf. And another team that you have to throw
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: in there is the Arizona Cardinals versus the Dallas Cowboys
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: every time they play. I don't know what it is
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: every time with the Cardinals.
- 1:18:26Speaker 2: We never show up.
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: And like you were saying, that golf analogy. You know,
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: the perfect golf analogy for this is, you know, first
- 1:18:34Speaker 1: nine holes, you're shooting a 40. You're doing great. You know,
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: it's not the best, but everything's going smooth. You're on
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: pace for an 80. You should be able to get
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: out of there maybe with like an 85, something like that,
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: even if you have a couple bad holes or whatever.
- 1:18:50Speaker 1: Comparison to this for what the Cowboys did in the
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: second half, you shot a 60. You shot a 60
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: on the back nine. That's really what it is. Okay,
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: one thing I am going to say, and I even
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: brought it up with after the whole Baltimore thing, whenever
- 1:19:05Speaker 1: Ryan and I were going back and forth with Schottenheimer,
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: Brian Schottenheimer he plays conservative and wins the last time
- 1:19:14Speaker 1: he's had us in a game where we were favored
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: to win where we've actually shown up and dominated for
- 1:19:19Speaker 1: four quarters Mike McCarthy he's done that for us even
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: Jason Garrett he's done that for us and I'll I'll
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: say this we said at the beginning of the year
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: for the Cowboys defense like the Cowboys defense they still
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: get fault because they gave up so many points in
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: the fourth quarter but We needed them to be a
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: below average defense. And what did they do? They had,
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: they had four sacks and they had three turnovers or
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: two turnovers. That is what a below average defense does. Yes,
- 1:19:52Speaker 1: they give up 33 points, but they had two turnovers
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: and gave the offense plenty of times to capitalize. And
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: what does Brian Schottenheimer do from that point forward? Like
- 1:20:02Speaker 1: you're saying, he either is too aggressive or too conservative. And,
- 1:20:07Speaker 1: At this point, with Javante Williams, he has 24 carries
- 1:20:11Speaker 1: for 56 yards.
- 1:20:12Speaker 2: The run game is just not going. So what should
- 1:20:14Speaker 2: you do?
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: You should rely on the passing game with CeeDee Lamb,
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: with George Pickens, even Ryan Flournoy. I know George Pickens,
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: he's been dealing with some injuries, but you have more
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: than capable enough backups that could actually do the job,
- 1:20:27Speaker 1: do what needs to be done. And one thing that
- 1:20:31Speaker 1: shows how conservative or how lackluster of a coach that
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: we do have, it's right before two-minute warning. It's 27-24.
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: We can win the game right here. Mike LaFleur calls
- 1:20:43Speaker 1: a timeout with 2-0-3 left. So what are you supposed
- 1:20:46Speaker 1: to do? You need to throw the ball, yes, of course,
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: because either way it's going to get to the two-minute warning,
- 1:20:52Speaker 1: but don't call a screen pass. So what does Dak do?
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: He takes a sack smartly so the clock could go.
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: And on third and goal, instead of going to win
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: the game, instead of going to win the game, go
- 1:21:06Speaker 1: and get the first down letting your best skill guys
- 1:21:10Speaker 1: get the ball or put the ball in their hands,
- 1:21:12Speaker 1: letting Dak Prescott win the game, what do you do?
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: You run the ball and you kick a field goal.
- 1:21:16Speaker 1: And what does that do? It does not matter either
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: way because the Cardinals would need a touchdown either way
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: to win the game. And even if you don't get it,
- 1:21:24Speaker 1: you're better off with that because the Cardinals would be
- 1:21:27Speaker 1: more prone to kicking a field goal and taking it
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: into overtime. So it's just those coaching situationally where it's
- 1:21:34Speaker 1: so lackluster where, He's just coaching not to lose. And
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: in the NFL or any games, there's no such thing
- 1:21:42Speaker 1: as where there's a big difference between these teams, even
- 1:21:45Speaker 1: talent gaps. If you coach conservatively, you're going to lose
- 1:21:48Speaker 1: the game. So you're better off coaching with a balance
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: in between approach. And he can't do that. He's either
- 1:21:56Speaker 1: too aggressive or too conservative. You can't find a middle
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: ground for that. So even in overtime where I can't
- 1:22:04Speaker 1: even blame the defense, you... Again, I've always said this.
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: I even said this in the group chat here. Whenever
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: you're in overtime in the regular season, you want the
- 1:22:14Speaker 1: ball first. And the reason for that, we've seen that
- 1:22:18Speaker 1: plenty of times. Because more times than not, I think
- 1:22:21Speaker 1: 90% of the games that went into overtime over the
- 1:22:23Speaker 1: past two years in regular season, whoever gets the ball first,
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: they're more likely than not to have a second possession.
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: So what does that do? You give your god, your
- 1:22:33Speaker 1: greatest offense there is, who you call yourself a great
- 1:22:36Speaker 1: play caller, you give yourself two possessions compared to one.
- 1:22:40Speaker 1: It's a possessions game in overtime. That's really what it is. Instead,
- 1:22:45Speaker 1: you defer... And your defense does their job. They get
- 1:22:49Speaker 1: you a three now. And what do you do in
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: your overtime possession? You run the ball. You call a
- 1:22:55Speaker 1: dumb play to CeeDee Lamb. Then you run a screen play.
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: You conceive it. You conceive it. You just play conservative.
- 1:23:01Speaker 1: So that's where Shottie is like, he doesn't know how
- 1:23:05Speaker 1: to balance in between the two. And you're going to
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: lose the game nine times out of ten. I don't
- 1:23:10Speaker 1: care if there's backups. The NFL is just that good
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: where you're going to find a way to lose. So
- 1:23:15Speaker 1: Christian Parker... as much as I wanted him to work,
- 1:23:18Speaker 1: and as much as he is, you could be a
- 1:23:20Speaker 1: great teacher, but you could also be a bad coach.
- 1:23:22Speaker 1: And I think that's exactly what he is, in my opinion.
- 1:23:25Speaker 1: He's a great teacher as far as numbers-wise, scheme-wise, but
- 1:23:28Speaker 1: that doesn't translate to him being a good coach. So,
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: like you said, Caleb Downs and Joey Porter Jr. going out,
- 1:23:34Speaker 1: that's no excuse for this defense just completely falling apart
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: right here. Like, it makes no sense. And I think
- 1:23:43Speaker 1: at this point, there's no sense in firing Brian Schottenheimer
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: a week.
- 1:23:47Speaker 2: Into the season.
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: And the reason for that is, who would you really
- 1:23:51Speaker 1: put as your head coach? Would you put Mike Pitten?
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: Would you put Clayton Adams? Who would you really put?
- 1:23:57Speaker 1: I think the only move that I could really see happening...
- 1:24:00Speaker 1: or that I want to see happen that could really
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: change the season is Clayton Adams becoming the offensive coordinator.
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: That's really the only thing, because sometimes as a head coach,
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: you need to step back. You need to be like, okay,
- 1:24:14Speaker 1: what can I help with as far as the entire team?
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: And Clayton Adams, who honestly might get hired within these
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: next two to three years, in all honesty, as an
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: offensive coordinator or potentially even head coach. I think that's
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: the only move that's viable enough to really save the season.
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: And what's crazy enough is I still think that the
- 1:24:32Speaker 1: Cowboys have a really good shot of winning this division.
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: And it's not because how good the Cowboys are going
- 1:24:40Speaker 1: to be. I think it's just because the Giants' schedule
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: is so brutal. And let me pull up the Giants'
- 1:24:46Speaker 1: schedule for you. So they have Philly next week. I
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: definitely see that being a win. But after that, they
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: have the Commanders. jacksonville colts niners seahawks browns lions cowboys
- 1:24:58Speaker 1: so i think they have three four more wins maybe
- 1:25:03Speaker 1: and with us playing the giants we kind of ride
- 1:25:05Speaker 1: our own destiny up to this point so i honestly
- 1:25:08Speaker 1: see the cowboys being eight and nine and winning this
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: division right here yeah it's gonna be.
- 1:25:12Speaker 3: It's possible brutal i yeah like i said this division
- 1:25:16Speaker 3: is so bad like nfc least bro i just don't
- 1:25:22Speaker 3: i don't see I don't know. I mean, I can
- 1:25:25Speaker 3: see us winning the division, but I just have no hope,
- 1:25:28Speaker 3: so I'm not going to say we can. But, like,
- 1:25:31Speaker 3: it's so bad. We can win it. There's a chance.
- 1:25:35Speaker 3: And we're 2-1 in division play right now. So it's
- 1:25:41Speaker 3: like there's a chance. But I don't know with how
- 1:25:44Speaker 3: this team is. I don't know. It's just so weird
- 1:25:49Speaker 3: to be able to watch your favorite team go out
- 1:25:52Speaker 3: there and stink it up every game. Dude, I know.
- 1:25:55Speaker 1: But at this point, we're used to it.
- 1:25:58Speaker 3: Why are we surprised?
- 1:25:59Speaker 1: Yeah, we shouldn't even be surprised at this point. All right,
- 1:26:03Speaker 1: but I think we pretty much covered every single game
- 1:26:06Speaker 1: right here. I know you have class coming up soon.
- 1:26:08Speaker 3: No, it's good. Detroit and Minnesota?
- 1:26:13Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, Detroit and Minnesota.
- 1:26:14Speaker 3: Man, okay.
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: I just want to say very quickly, the Lions are
- 1:26:21Speaker 1: so depleted defensively, and I think Okay, I know the Lions,
- 1:26:25Speaker 1: they scored 19 points, but this shows how high-powered of
- 1:26:29Speaker 1: an offense they have against the Brian Flores. Because I
- 1:26:32Speaker 1: think this is the most points the Vikings have allowed offensively.
- 1:26:35Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: Or opposing offense.
- 1:26:38Speaker 3: Jameer Gibbs, bro.
- 1:26:39Speaker 1: Dude, Jameer Gibbs, he made five plays that were insane.
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: But I'm going to let you get on to the
- 1:26:43Speaker 1: Vikings point. Vikings, they really need to trade for Derrick
- 1:26:47Speaker 1: Henry or Jonathan Taylor for them to.
- 1:26:49Speaker 3: Be taken seriously. This is... The Vikings running backs just
- 1:26:54Speaker 3: aren't it. I love Jordan Mason, and I like Aaron Jones.
- 1:27:00Speaker 3: We saw what Jordan Mason was able to do with
- 1:27:04Speaker 3: the Niners with Kyle Shanahan, but I think that was
- 1:27:06Speaker 3: more of a product of Kyle Shanahan. I don't know, bro. Yeah,
- 1:27:11Speaker 3: you're going to have to trade for someone in the
- 1:27:14Speaker 3: backfield for people to fear you because they have good receivers.
- 1:27:19Speaker 3: I think they have... They have Jeddah, one of the
- 1:27:22Speaker 3: best in the league. They have Jordan Hanson, one of
- 1:27:23Speaker 3: the best twos. And then has Jawan Jennings been playing?
- 1:27:27Speaker 3: They have Ty Felton. No, he hasn't been playing yet.
- 1:27:29Speaker 3: They have Ty Felton, who I think is the second year.
- 1:27:34Speaker 3: I think he's a bit underrated. So they have playmakers
- 1:27:38Speaker 3: in the passing game. You just need someone in the backfield.
- 1:27:40Speaker 3: And I think a trade for one of those players
- 1:27:43Speaker 3: would be transcendent. It would allow you to be able
- 1:27:46Speaker 3: to just rely on the run and rely on yeah
- 1:27:53Speaker 3: something other than kyler murray's passing ability because i don't
- 1:27:57Speaker 3: think that's his strength he can't do it i believe
- 1:28:00Speaker 3: in kyler in that way but not fully giving him
- 1:28:02Speaker 3: the range to do that i think he needs a
- 1:28:04Speaker 3: good running a good running game next to him what
- 1:28:07Speaker 3: year did he play good with the cardinals.
- 1:28:09Speaker 1: It was four years ago and who did they have
- 1:28:13Speaker 1: at running back uh they had d hop uh Well,
- 1:28:17Speaker 1: they had James Conner, but that's when James Conner was
- 1:28:19Speaker 1: at the peak of his powers.
- 1:28:21Speaker 3: Yeah, James Conner at the peak of his powers, and
- 1:28:23Speaker 3: Kyler looked good. He needs a good, and especially with
- 1:28:26Speaker 3: his running ability, if you put Jonathan Taylor or Derrick
- 1:28:29Speaker 3: Henry next to him, people are going to fear that backfield.
- 1:28:34Speaker 3: I know Kyler Henry's not some otherworldly quarterback, but at
- 1:28:37Speaker 3: the end of the day, he's a good rushing quarterback.
- 1:28:40Speaker 3: And I think that would just move this offense so
- 1:28:44Speaker 3: much more because they don't want to pass it, if
- 1:28:46Speaker 3: we're being honest. Their defense is so good that they
- 1:28:50Speaker 3: just want to stop you and run the ball. That's
- 1:28:53Speaker 3: their formula. Just stop you from what you're doing. 19 points, bro.
- 1:28:58Speaker 3: If the offense, like you said, if the offense is
- 1:29:00Speaker 3: able to score 20 plus points a game, they're one
- 1:29:03Speaker 3: of the best. Yeah. Like this defense is insane. And
- 1:29:07Speaker 3: I saw a thing and it was like the Seahawks
- 1:29:10Speaker 3: are physically terrifying on the defensive end. Not so much psychologically.
- 1:29:16Speaker 3: Whereas the Vikings are more so psychologically terrifying. Like they
- 1:29:23Speaker 3: know what you're going to do. They know they don't
- 1:29:26Speaker 3: have the best talent in the league. for being honest.
- 1:29:28Speaker 3: They don't have some otherworldly... It's just a combination of players.
- 1:29:32Speaker 3: And that's what happens when you have one of the
- 1:29:33Speaker 3: best defensive coordinators in the game in Brian Flores. He
- 1:29:36Speaker 3: absolutely goes to work. He puts in insane stunts. He
- 1:29:40Speaker 3: blitzes you like crazy. We haven't seen Caleb look bad
- 1:29:43Speaker 3: against anyone except the Vikings. And I will say, it
- 1:29:47Speaker 3: was a weather game. It was off. But at the
- 1:29:51Speaker 3: same time.
- 1:29:52Speaker 2: That's part of football.
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: That's part of football.
- 1:29:54Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the Vikings just absolutely... I saw a thing,
- 1:29:58Speaker 3: and it was talking about how we can't say that
- 1:30:01Speaker 3: the Vikings did good against the Bears offense or something
- 1:30:04Speaker 3: like that, and it was talking about the weather, but
- 1:30:07Speaker 3: I think they're just that good.
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it does matter, yeah.
- 1:30:11Speaker 3: This defense, this is why I had them winning the division.
- 1:30:14Speaker 3: It's because of their defense. I believe in Brian Flores
- 1:30:16Speaker 3: so much, and like I said in the preview, they
- 1:30:19Speaker 3: won eight games with freaking J.J. McCarthy and Carson Wentz.
- 1:30:25Speaker 3: If you can just get anything better than that From
- 1:30:28Speaker 3: Kyler Murray, which I think he's been okay. Maybe not
- 1:30:31Speaker 3: better than them, maybe around the same, if not a
- 1:30:33Speaker 3: little bit better. We see what it can do. Six
- 1:30:36Speaker 3: and one. They're six and one right now. And I
- 1:30:38Speaker 3: don't think that's bad. They're one of the best. I think,
- 1:30:42Speaker 3: in my opinion, yeah, I'm going to say best defense
- 1:30:45Speaker 3: in the league because of Brian Flores.
- 1:30:48Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, for sure.
- 1:30:49Speaker 3: I think best defense, yeah. Putting freaking one of those
- 1:30:53Speaker 3: in the backfield would just soothe the defense. It would also...
- 1:30:58Speaker 3: not give KOC a headache every time he's trying to
- 1:31:02Speaker 3: call a play.
- 1:31:02Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.
- 1:31:03Speaker 3: He would just be like, all right, give it to...
- 1:31:07Speaker 3: And I believe their line isn't bad. I think Christian
- 1:31:10Speaker 3: Darasol went down. I don't know if he's still injured,
- 1:31:14Speaker 3: but I think their line isn't a problem either.
- 1:31:16Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's not a problem.
- 1:31:20Speaker 3: They only lack in the running game, and it's like
- 1:31:22Speaker 3: you said, to take them seriously, their offense needs to
- 1:31:25Speaker 3: be good and... that move would do that for them.
- 1:31:29Speaker 1: Yeah, because in the NFC, there's several high-powered offenses that
- 1:31:35Speaker 1: I could say, the Niners, the Rams, the Bears, where
- 1:31:40Speaker 1: even the Lions, the Lions too, where at this point,
- 1:31:45Speaker 1: it's just a numbers game. Like, especially in this modern era,
- 1:31:50Speaker 1: a great offense versus a great defense, you have to
- 1:31:53Speaker 1: favor the offense in this point. And that's exactly why
- 1:31:55Speaker 1: I thought the Lions, they were going to win because...
- 1:31:57Speaker 1: You're going to let a Lions defense look a lot
- 1:32:00Speaker 1: better than it is against the Vikings, against the Vikings offense.
- 1:32:04Speaker 1: And I think maybe the Vikings don't make a trade
- 1:32:08Speaker 1: this week, but they play Buffalo Monday night. And I
- 1:32:12Speaker 1: think both teams, six and one, it's going to be
- 1:32:14Speaker 1: a really good game. I think that trade deadline, it's
- 1:32:18Speaker 1: the next day. It's a Tuesday, the next day. I
- 1:32:20Speaker 1: think if they lose against the Bills, I think whatever happens,
- 1:32:25Speaker 1: if they win, they're not going to make a trade.
- 1:32:27Speaker 1: If they lose, I think they're more prone to pull
- 1:32:30Speaker 1: the trigger on a Jonathan Taylor, on a Tony Pollard,
- 1:32:33Speaker 1: on a Derrick Henry, where it really would make that
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: big of a difference. Because like you're saying, Kyler Murray
- 1:32:41Speaker 1: is a serviceable, solid quarterback. Can he get it done?
- 1:32:44Speaker 1: Can they make a Super Bowl?
- 1:32:46Speaker 3: Yes, they can.
- 1:32:46Speaker 1: But the Vikings defense would have to stay at this
- 1:32:49Speaker 1: historic rate, which at this point, we know even the
- 1:32:52Speaker 1: Texans defense last year couldn't get over the struggles of
- 1:32:55Speaker 1: what cj stroud did last year so i i think
- 1:32:59Speaker 1: that they really need a run game because it would
- 1:33:03Speaker 1: open up the pass and it'll make it look so
- 1:33:05Speaker 1: much easier so i think honestly these next three games
- 1:33:09Speaker 1: they have bills packers and niners so we're gonna see
- 1:33:13Speaker 1: we're gonna see how well this defense can support this
- 1:33:16Speaker 1: offense because at the end of the day the defense
- 1:33:18Speaker 1: is gonna have a bad day like they're they're prone
- 1:33:21Speaker 1: to have a bad.
- 1:33:23Speaker 3: Yeah they can't stay perfect all year long Last year
- 1:33:25Speaker 3: we saw the Seahawks do it. I'm not saying they
- 1:33:31Speaker 3: had a bad day, but that's the formula I see
- 1:33:34Speaker 3: for this Vikings team. Albeit they're not going to have
- 1:33:38Speaker 3: as good of an offense as the Seahawks last year
- 1:33:41Speaker 3: with Clint Kubiak at the helm. But if you could
- 1:33:44Speaker 3: just be a little under that and just have your
- 1:33:46Speaker 3: defense go insane, holding the Lions to 19 points is crazy, bro.
- 1:33:53Speaker 3: It's insane, yeah. No, it's insane. They're one of the better.
- 1:33:56Speaker 3: Let me see. Who have they played so far? The Lions? No, no, no, no, no.
- 1:34:02Speaker 3: The Vikings. I want to see. All right, so. And
- 1:34:06Speaker 3: their schedule hasn't been the hardest, if we're being honest.
- 1:34:08Speaker 3: But still, I think what they've done is impressive. So. Bro,
- 1:34:13Speaker 3: what the heck? All right, so their first game was
- 1:34:16Speaker 3: against the Packers. And we saw that game. The offense
- 1:34:20Speaker 3: came alive towards the end. And that was with Carson Wentz, too,
- 1:34:24Speaker 3: because Kyler Murray got hit and got injured. And then
- 1:34:28Speaker 3: the defense, like the offense was firing on all cylinders
- 1:34:32Speaker 3: for the Packers. And then we just see the Vikings
- 1:34:36Speaker 3: come in and just shut them down. I think they
- 1:34:40Speaker 3: might have had like 22 at the half or something
- 1:34:42Speaker 3: or something crazy like that. Yeah, it was something like that. Yeah.
- 1:34:44Speaker 3: They were up by a large amount, and then the
- 1:34:46Speaker 3: Vikings just come back. Their defense stops them, and that's
- 1:34:49Speaker 3: the highest points Vikings have scored all season. And then
- 1:34:52Speaker 3: we see the Vikings play the Bears, and then that
- 1:34:54Speaker 3: one's just the defense of the game, 9-3. Like we said,
- 1:34:57Speaker 3: they hold the Bears, who we just saw dominate the Seahawks.
- 1:35:04Speaker 3: And I will say Caleb did go out with an injury,
- 1:35:06Speaker 3: but still. Vikings and Bucs, 23-16. And that was more
- 1:35:09Speaker 3: of a shaky game for Seahawks. the offense but they
- 1:35:13Speaker 3: ended up like what we've seen over the past few
- 1:35:16Speaker 3: weeks is the offense will just turn it up at
- 1:35:19Speaker 3: the end of the game yeah because the defense is
- 1:35:22Speaker 3: so good they just go make one drive like the
- 1:35:24Speaker 3: colts game they make one drive and they win like
- 1:35:26Speaker 3: you probably shouldn't struggle against the colts like that but
- 1:35:28Speaker 3: it's because of the offense they won they scored 16
- 1:35:31Speaker 3: points and won the.
- 1:35:31Speaker 1: Game yeah or even this game they had one they
- 1:35:35Speaker 1: had one drive that put them up against the lions
- 1:35:38Speaker 1: and then the lion just.
- 1:35:39Speaker 3: Went down yeah and then the lions just What can
- 1:35:42Speaker 3: you do? You can only stop them for so long.
- 1:35:43Speaker 1: I mean, they just ran it with Jameer Gibbs.
- 1:35:44Speaker 3: Yeah. They ran it with Jameer Gibbs that entire time.
- 1:35:46Speaker 3: You can only stop the best running back in the
- 1:35:48Speaker 3: league for so long. Yeah. So, I mean, I still
- 1:35:52Speaker 3: believe in this Vikings team. I don't think that that
- 1:35:55Speaker 3: loss is taking them out of the race of the
- 1:35:57Speaker 3: division at all, in my opinion, because the defense is
- 1:36:00Speaker 3: so good. I've been saying that this whole time I've
- 1:36:02Speaker 3: been talking about them. But that's the truth.
- 1:36:04Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:36:05Speaker 3: And, yeah, these next three games are going to be
- 1:36:07Speaker 3: so interesting to watch. And, yeah, I want to see
- 1:36:10Speaker 3: them make a move. regardless if they win or lose
- 1:36:12Speaker 3: on Monday, because they should be able to beat this
- 1:36:17Speaker 3: Bills team, in my opinion, because the Bills defense is
- 1:36:19Speaker 3: so bad. It's bad.
- 1:36:21Speaker 1: It's really bad.
- 1:36:22Speaker 3: Yeah. So if the offense can muster anything up, it's
- 1:36:26Speaker 3: going to be a good battle between Brian Flores and
- 1:36:28Speaker 3: Josh Allen. So that's going to be interesting to see.
- 1:36:31Speaker 3: But if the offense can score 20 points, I think
- 1:36:34Speaker 3: they win this game.
- 1:36:36Speaker 1: I think so. I think so, too. But also the
- 1:36:39Speaker 1: Bills being high-powered– Yeah, the Bills. It's the Bills. I
- 1:36:43Speaker 1: think it's going to be another version of this Lions
- 1:36:46Speaker 1: game right here. We'll see the push and pull of
- 1:36:48Speaker 1: the great offense and great defense and see which one
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: it is. But, man, I think we're pretty much covered.
- 1:36:57Speaker 3: Do you want to do a game or anything?
- 1:37:00Speaker 1: Yeah, we could do the two-minute drill. We could play
- 1:37:02Speaker 1: a game. I just didn't know how much time you
- 1:37:04Speaker 1: had left.
- 1:37:05Speaker 3: No, it's okay. It's okay.
- 1:37:06Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:37:07Speaker 3: Yeah, just making sure. I don't think it's going to
- 1:37:09Speaker 3: be a worry. We'll be good. Okay. You don't live
- 1:37:15Speaker 3: that far from... No, also, I think.
- 1:37:19Speaker 3: I'm going to get sent to lecture or something. Okay,
- 1:37:22Speaker 3: you're going to get sent to lecture. Okay, cool. Why
- 1:37:25Speaker 3: is it... Okay. Daily. Okay. We could do the two-minute
- 1:37:30Speaker 3: drill game. Yeah, we'll do one, two, three.
- 1:37:33Speaker 1: We need redemption.
- 1:37:34Speaker 3: Oh, never mind, never mind, never mind. We'll cover that
- 1:37:36Speaker 3: next week. Yeah, no, we could cover it next week. No,
- 1:37:40Speaker 3: but okay.
- 1:37:42Speaker 1: Today's drive, protect the lead, 20-26, week four, Kansas City
- 1:37:46Speaker 1: Chiefs versus Vegas, 23-19. Our ball at first and 10,
- 1:37:51Speaker 1: our own 22, three timeouts, they have two.
- 1:37:54Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:37:55Speaker 1: Ryan, I'm going to let you get this first play
- 1:37:58Speaker 1: call right here. So what is it? It's first and
- 1:38:01Speaker 1: 10 at their 22.
- 1:38:04Speaker 3: Oh, this is the Chiefs against the Raiders?
- 1:38:08Speaker 1: Yeah, this is Chiefs and Raiders, yeah, this year.
- 1:38:10Speaker 3: Do a run to the left side.
- 1:38:13Speaker 1: What do you want outside off tackle inside tackle all
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: right let's see.
- 1:38:18Speaker 3: It come on canine go to work man.
- 1:38:22Speaker 1: Yeah i remember this i think this was after they.
- 1:38:26Speaker 3: Fumbled okay just don't block Just don't block, I guess.
- 1:38:31Speaker 1: Okay, nice.
- 1:38:32Speaker 2: Just a loss.
- 1:38:33Speaker 3: A loss for one.
- 1:38:34Speaker 1: That was great.
- 1:38:35Speaker 3: Yeah, that's on me, guys. All right. Dang, why is
- 1:38:40Speaker 3: this taking longer?
- 1:38:41Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:38:42Speaker 3: That was the best play, Cole.
- 1:38:44Speaker 2: Yeah, your best one, of course. Okay, so I'm going
- 1:38:47Speaker 2: to go pass.
- 1:38:50Speaker 3: And.
- 1:38:51Speaker 1: I want to do something different. I hate how it
- 1:38:53Speaker 1: always has it on like a little angle route. I
- 1:38:56Speaker 1: want like a flat route.
- 1:38:57Speaker 3: I was thinking the same thing. Over.
- 1:39:00Speaker 1: I want this.
- 1:39:01Speaker 3: Why is it two?
- 1:39:02Speaker 1: I kind of want this safety occupied right here. Now
- 1:39:06Speaker 1: I'm going to just say throw to open man. I
- 1:39:10Speaker 1: think Travis Kelsey might be the one. Just make it
- 1:39:13Speaker 1: a simple, simple levels concept. You have the linebacker occupied, canine,
- 1:39:18Speaker 1: or defense. Or just throw it away. You know, that's
- 1:39:22Speaker 1: fine too.
- 1:39:24Speaker 3: Okay, that's great. I've never seen that. Your call is
- 1:39:29Speaker 3: good as any. Okay, nice.
- 1:39:30Speaker 1: Third and 11.
- 1:39:33Speaker 3: Third and 11 for us here. Alright, so let's go pass. Okay.
- 1:39:38Speaker 3: And then we'll put Travis Kelsey. Keep up on that
- 1:39:41Speaker 3: in route. We'll go Noah Gray deep. Just a straight
- 1:39:46Speaker 3: go route, yeah. And then We'll go Xavier Worthy on
- 1:39:50Speaker 3: a– let's just do a hitch route, like five-yard back,
- 1:39:54Speaker 3: come back, just to occupy Eric Stokes. And then Jalen Royals,
- 1:40:02Speaker 3: that's fine. I really want him to hit Kelsey, but
- 1:40:06Speaker 3: I don't know if he'll get open. I'm hoping that
- 1:40:08Speaker 3: Noah Gray can take the safety with him. Trading Stukes
- 1:40:12Speaker 3: can– we'll follow Kelsey, but I'm banking on Kelsey just
- 1:40:16Speaker 3: out-bodying Stukes. Yeah. And let's go... I'm trying to see
- 1:40:23Speaker 3: what to do for K9. Can we move him? I
- 1:40:25Speaker 3: kind of want to do a... Oh, you can't move him. Okay.
- 1:40:29Speaker 3: I was going to say maybe a flat route, but
- 1:40:30Speaker 3: I don't like that. Maybe... Yeah, do a flat route.
- 1:40:33Speaker 3: Maybe N'Kobe Dean will be occupied. And if he's not, then... Actually,
- 1:40:38Speaker 3: do like an angle route to the first down marker. No, no, no.
- 1:40:42Speaker 3: Just leave that. Leave that, actually. Okay.
- 1:40:44Speaker 1: That's fine.
- 1:40:45Speaker 3: And... Let's just go past the open man. Okay, past
- 1:40:50Speaker 3: the open man.
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: Let's see.
- 1:40:52Speaker 3: It says it's favoring Kelsey right here. Let's see. Yeah,
- 1:40:55Speaker 3: I would like it to go to Kelsey. Oh, yeah, see?
- 1:40:57Speaker 3: They get brought down. Okay.
- 1:41:01Speaker 1: Oh.
- 1:41:02Speaker 3: I wanted Kelsey to run more inside, but I don't
- 1:41:05Speaker 3: know why he didn't.
- 1:41:07Speaker 1: Okay, it's fourth down. I think it's fourth and two.
- 1:41:10Speaker 1: It's fourth and two if we kick a field goal.
- 1:41:13Speaker 1: We're going to be up seven. I'm going to play
- 1:41:15Speaker 1: the numbers game here. I'm going to kick the field goal.
- 1:41:18Speaker 2: I trust our defense.
- 1:41:19Speaker 3: Imagine he misses it. Hopefully not.
- 1:41:24Speaker 1: Oh, it is Butker.
- 1:41:27Speaker 3: Okay, he makes the field goal.
- 1:41:28Speaker 2: Okay, it's a seven-point game.
- 1:41:30Speaker 3: Now we get to play defense.
- 1:41:33Speaker 1: Yeah. We're actually a lot better through the end zone now.
- 1:41:39Speaker 3: Let's just do that. Play it smart.
- 1:41:45Speaker 1: Okay. Yeah.
- 1:41:46Speaker 3: All right.
- 1:41:47Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll let you get the first call on defense
- 1:41:50Speaker 2: right here.
- 1:41:50Speaker 3: All right. So I want to bring some pressure first play.
- 1:41:55Speaker 3: Let's go nickel, and then we can go even. Okay.
- 1:42:02Speaker 3: Seven in the box. We'll do cover two, and we'll
- 1:42:06Speaker 3: send five. Okay.
- 1:42:09Speaker 1: Nice little blitz right there. I think that's Nick Bolden.
- 1:42:11Speaker 1: That's going to be blitzing. Okay.
- 1:42:13Speaker 3: Let's see. Yeah, it is Nick Bolden. Oh, that's a
- 1:42:17Speaker 3: great play. Nice. Pressure.
- 1:42:20Speaker 1: Nice.
- 1:42:20Speaker 3: Good pressure right there. Okay, they still have plenty of time.
- 1:42:27Speaker 1: So I think what I'm going to do, I'm going
- 1:42:31Speaker 1: to stay in nickel. I'm going to go a light box,
- 1:42:34Speaker 1: and I really want to go quarters. I'm going to
- 1:42:38Speaker 1: go quarters, and I'm going to drop eight because I
- 1:42:41Speaker 1: highly doubt that they're going to run. So, I think
- 1:42:44Speaker 1: that'll leave George Karloffkas. Yeah, that'll let George Karloffkas get
- 1:42:50Speaker 1: back into pressure.
- 1:42:51Speaker 3: Oh, no. It had a 51. Oh, nice. He caught that? Oh, crap.
- 1:42:57Speaker 1: How do you catch that? You have eight people and
- 1:43:00Speaker 1: you have Trey Tucker right there. That's lovely.
- 1:43:02Speaker 3: It's nice. Nice. All right, let's go.
- 1:43:06Speaker 1: You're called as good as any.
- 1:43:07Speaker 3: Nice.
- 1:43:08Speaker 1: I love to see that.
- 1:43:09Speaker 3: Let's go stacked boxes. i don't want to send anything
- 1:43:12Speaker 3: i just want to like uh just uh heavy pressure
- 1:43:16Speaker 3: yeah and then we'll drop we'll do cover three and
- 1:43:19Speaker 3: we'll just rush four okay all right.
- 1:43:23Speaker 1: Let's see it we'll just okay make it look like and.
- 1:43:27Speaker 3: Then drop back yep drop back drop back.
- 1:43:30Speaker 1: Unless trade sucker is just gonna have a legacy game
- 1:43:34Speaker 1: dude okay that's nice you call the We're calling the
- 1:43:39Speaker 1: best calls, but obviously it doesn't matter when it comes
- 1:43:41Speaker 1: to Trey Tucker.
- 1:43:43Speaker 3: Okay, I'm going to go.
- 1:43:45Speaker 2: They're really not in a rush, so I could go
- 1:43:46Speaker 2: base right here.
- 1:43:47Speaker 1: Because it's two-minute warning they're already at here.
- 1:43:50Speaker 3: I'm going to go base.
- 1:43:52Speaker 1: I'm going to go even, and I'm going to go two-man.
- 1:43:56Speaker 1: I'm going to go two-man deep because obviously it's not working.
- 1:43:59Speaker 1: We should have more than enough bodies. My only concern
- 1:44:02Speaker 1: is Brock Bowers, but I think we should be fine.
- 1:44:08Speaker 1: right here let's see trey tucker watch okay yeah of
- 1:44:14Speaker 1: course man man so the lane is all over trey
- 1:44:17Speaker 1: tucker and like it just doesn't matter trading your call
- 1:44:22Speaker 1: rating call the best one.
- 1:44:24Speaker 3: All right we're blitzing now we're blitzing steve spagnola blitz
- 1:44:28Speaker 3: incoming so let's send all six we're going all out
- 1:44:31Speaker 3: um okay and we're gonna play two men okay And
- 1:44:37Speaker 3: we will go... We'll just go light in the box.
- 1:44:42Speaker 3: Just make it look like it's not.
- 1:44:47Speaker 1: Yeah, like we're dropping out. Let's see.
- 1:44:51Speaker 3: Okay.
- 1:44:52Speaker 2: Oh, that's a nice blitz.
- 1:44:54Speaker 3: No way. Under the road, bro. Oh, hurry. There we go. Yes.
- 1:44:57Speaker 3: That's exactly what we wanted. Ah, should we blitz back-to-back times?
- 1:45:01Speaker 3: It did stop the clock. Best one again. Bro, that's
- 1:45:04Speaker 3: three best play calls. Like four or five for the
- 1:45:06Speaker 3: whole team.
- 1:45:08Speaker 1: You know what? I'm going to just blitz five. It's
- 1:45:11Speaker 1: going to be a light box. I'm going to probably
- 1:45:15Speaker 1: should go man to man.
- 1:45:16Speaker 3: I'm going to try to run a little stunt.
- 1:45:20Speaker 1: Try to run a little stunt. So try to get
- 1:45:25Speaker 1: them going right there. No, I should probably get them going. Well,
- 1:45:30Speaker 1: if it's going to be five in the box right here.
- 1:45:33Speaker 1: So I'm going to do this. He's going to be occupied.
- 1:45:36Speaker 1: Then Nick Bolden is going to be coming around. Screaming down.
- 1:45:40Speaker 1: Screaming down the box right here. All right, let's see.
- 1:45:45Speaker 3: Let's see. Come on, Nick Bolden. Do me good. Oh.
- 1:45:49Speaker 3: No way. Is that Gentee? What? Yeah. PPR Merchant. PPR Merchant, bro.
- 1:45:54Speaker 1: PPR Merchant. It's going to say best call. As good
- 1:45:58Speaker 1: as any.
- 1:45:59Speaker 3: I love to see that. I love how this call
- 1:46:01Speaker 3: is always good as any. Okay. We'll do... uh i
- 1:46:09Speaker 3: kind of want to pressure him again just send what's
- 1:46:11Speaker 3: in five uh we'll go cover zero i'm trying i
- 1:46:14Speaker 3: want to trust in in the deep in our corners
- 1:46:19Speaker 3: no williams you should be able to guard cody cody
- 1:46:22Speaker 3: white yeah trey tucker and mansour lane i don't know
- 1:46:27Speaker 3: uh let me see we'll go even in the box
- 1:46:31Speaker 3: even in the box and then we'll go.
- 1:46:32Speaker 1: Base base okay Got heavy hitters in the box. We
- 1:46:40Speaker 1: should be. My only concern was Brock Bowers, but they
- 1:46:43Speaker 1: haven't thrown it to him at all.
- 1:46:45Speaker 3: It's more trade talk. There we go. Thrown away. Fourth
- 1:46:49Speaker 3: down now.
- 1:46:52Speaker 1: Honestly, I'm going to go. It might be risky, but
- 1:46:56Speaker 1: it's going to just be can you get the ball
- 1:47:01Speaker 1: out in time.
- 1:47:02Speaker 3: Yeah, I like that.
- 1:47:04Speaker 1: I'm going to I'm going to go dime, cover zero,
- 1:47:06Speaker 1: all out six.
- 1:47:08Speaker 3: There we go. Let's get it. And stack the box.
- 1:47:12Speaker 3: Come on.
- 1:47:12Speaker 1: You just got to get that ball out quick.
- 1:47:14Speaker 3: He knows the pressure's coming, bro. He's scared. He's shaking
- 1:47:17Speaker 3: in his boots.
- 1:47:18Speaker 2: It doesn't matter.
- 1:47:19Speaker 1: Delay of game.
- 1:47:20Speaker 3: Delay of game. We scared him, bro. Shaking in their boots, bro.
- 1:47:27Speaker 3: Let's go. And you know what? Do it again. Doing
- 1:47:30Speaker 3: the exact same thing. Now what is it? Fourth and what?
- 1:47:35Speaker 1: Fourth and ten.
- 1:47:37Speaker 3: Okay, I get it. Fourth and ten. Perfect. Yeah. Come on.
- 1:47:42Speaker 3: Cover zero. There we go. Come on, boys. Get home.
- 1:47:46Speaker 3: You know the pressure's coming again. Yeah, he knows it's coming.
- 1:47:50Speaker 3: Fall star. Yes, sir. Dude. Bang. Look at the intimidation badge, bro.
- 1:47:57Speaker 1: Okay, I'll let you call this one because obviously.
- 1:48:01Speaker 3: The pure Let's just go nickel. We'll play cover three,
- 1:48:06Speaker 3: send five. Cover three, send five. Not as big of
- 1:48:10Speaker 3: a blitz, but we're going to play the sticks.
- 1:48:12Speaker 1: What about the front? You want a light box? uh
- 1:48:19Speaker 1: yeah okay cool all right let's see how this goes
- 1:48:24Speaker 1: we scared them back 10 yards sack no way shot.
- 1:48:33Speaker 3: Another hurry let's go what a game that is we
- 1:48:36Speaker 3: could just kneel that's.
- 1:48:36Speaker 1: How you do it Dude, what is up with us
- 1:48:40Speaker 1: not being good offensively, but defensively? This was literally Chiefs-esque
- 1:48:45Speaker 1: right here. Like, he's making a goal line stand, bro.
- 1:48:49Speaker 3: Yeah, bro. W game. Let's see.
- 1:48:52Speaker 1: Probably offensive play calling was probably bad, but I wonder
- 1:48:55Speaker 1: what our defense.
- 1:48:57Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder what defense was.
- 1:48:59Speaker 2: Oh, it says we called it like Liam Cohen.
- 1:49:01Speaker 3: Liam Cohen. Freak, yeah.
- 1:49:04Speaker 1: I like that. That's A, a weak mark, though. Wink Barndale,
- 1:49:08Speaker 1: like him, you loaded the box three out of ten snaps.
- 1:49:10Speaker 1: Most plays callers zero. Sent five or more seven times.
- 1:49:14Speaker 3: Jeez, look at us, bro. Freaking beast. You know what?
- 1:49:18Speaker 3: We'll take it.
- 1:49:19Speaker 1: Those are two great play callers.
- 1:49:22Speaker 3: I like that, bro.
- 1:49:25Speaker 1: Their own perspective.
- 1:49:27Speaker 3: It is.
- 1:49:28Speaker 1: But before we get out of here, we got to
- 1:49:30Speaker 1: do what we normally do.
- 1:49:31Speaker 2: Our so-called MVPs of the week.
- 1:49:32Speaker 3: So-called MVP.
- 1:49:33Speaker 2: One person that stood out. Breckin said it was Michael Wilson, which.
- 1:49:36Speaker 3: I hate that.
- 1:49:37Speaker 1: I just wanted to say that because you texted yesterday.
- 1:49:41Speaker 3: Let me think of one right now.
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: My so-called MVP is, oh, I'm torn between these two
- 1:49:47Speaker 1: guys right here.
- 1:49:48Speaker 3: You know what? It's going to be a duel.
- 1:49:50Speaker 1: The first duel so-called MVP in my book, Joe Burrow
- 1:49:54Speaker 1: and Tee Higgins. Because Joe Burrow, six touchdowns, Tee Higgins,
- 1:49:58Speaker 1: 10 for a buck 55, two tutters. Just amazing performance
- 1:50:04Speaker 1: from the duo right there between them.
- 1:50:06Speaker 3: So shout-outs to them. And Armani Hooker. Three interceptions, bro.
- 1:50:10Speaker 3: Mine is going to be either someone in the NFC North.
- 1:50:17Speaker 3: I'm trying to think. Let's go with just the Bears organization, bro.
- 1:50:23Speaker 3: Just the Bears organization. For making that Jeffrey Simmons... trade
- 1:50:28Speaker 3: and just going all in and realizing that you have
- 1:50:31Speaker 3: a court a great quarterback on a rookie deal that's
- 1:50:34Speaker 3: when you want to go in when he's not under
- 1:50:36Speaker 3: a lot of money yeah um realizing where they're at
- 1:50:39Speaker 3: and taking that leap yeah i'm yeah ben johnson too
- 1:50:44Speaker 3: just the whole organization ben johnson calling an amazing game
- 1:50:47Speaker 3: dennis allen going crazy that's kind of a cop-out with

- 1:51:05Speaker 3: You know, I could have gone to the Cotton Bowl
- 1:51:07Speaker 3: game against Tulane. But I didn't go. It's Caleb against Tulane. Ah, bro.
- 1:51:15Speaker 1: That would have been lovely, bro.

- 1:51:36Speaker 3: on my birthday.
- 1:51:38Speaker 1: Really?

- 1:51:44Speaker 3: the worst days of my life, bro. Like, the Vikings,
- 1:51:49Speaker 3: it was J.J. McCarthy. I haven't been a fan of
- 1:51:52Speaker 3: his since Michigan, and then he tore us up. So disappointing. Dude,
- 1:51:56Speaker 3: he did, bro. I mean, it's the Vikings. I like
