[00:00:03] Yes, you are now listening to the sound of sports reporters ordered. Y'all hear me out there! We hope y'all had a good holiday! We hope you had a good first miss! We hope you have a good heart of 10 all that causes in the building. Don't forget about quance-up!
[00:00:23] We don't say we tried to uplift and people were shitted on us like that ain't no real holiday. I don't say it but it is what it is! Tonight! As always, I am flanked by the one in Obey! New Jerusalem's own! Your VA Bread! Your...
[00:00:45] Put this foot on your back! Your... They call them! This is the logical thing. That's the logical thing. That's the logical thing. That's the logical thing. That's the logical thing. That's how I want people to know that's when I walk in the room so now one!
[00:00:59] You know, that's how you drive! The state that it is standing shut up my tongue. Yo, and up to five y'all knew that already but I had the reminder. We are back! Tonight we're going to talk about the college football playoffs.
[00:01:14] We're going to talk about something of all games this weekend including the Master Curring Miami. The Master Curring's coming! I'm in Florida State Feds! You don't stand high to wife, high to kids! You don't stand. Then we got something in that hell! Who can cleanse this weekend?
[00:01:32] Are there any divisions up for grabs? We will talk about it in more but first as always because we set it off with a little something that we like to call. Get it off on chest. The link is not making that trade happen. Just stop. Just stop.
[00:01:51] Just stop. Give water! Woads, shams, dudes in my sports groups in them have all of a width. It's not happening. It is not happening at all! You're not getting Kevin Durant, Emily! You're not getting Zach Levine and LA.
[00:02:13] You're not getting the John say Murray from Atlanta and LA. You're not getting Zrayman and LA. Like that's four that I saw this week, what I've even looking for Just hanging out with my daughters back over here. Oh, this way hanging out We just flipping through my phone
[00:02:33] Watching Johnny tests on my phone or watching Anything that's just popping up on my phone and every time I'm looking like what's going on here? But it's not gonna happen. It's not gonna happen
[00:02:46] And I understand like that people want to make these deals and want to splash deal Like we said in the pre-meaning I can't know what's talking about what Indiana should do I can know why it's like posting the trade that Toronto should make
[00:03:00] How can no one's posting about the trade that go to stay would make but another team? You know, so it's just like We have liquor faithful and I'm not listening. I'm not trying to knock its dreams Because you want it seems succeed the broad fans
[00:03:17] Listen, I want of them understand like you wanted to succeed But it's unlikely that any other GM is gonna fall for these these moves. It's like if you're willing to make these moves That puts you in a position We're in that position of power No one it's
[00:03:36] 2024 in a couple days. I'm not sure a lot of teams looking out for the 2020 9th and 2030 first round pick Because let's keep it a bean that do's 14 right now It's not a lot of teams out here scouting 13 14 year old like yeah, we get the 2030 first round pick
[00:03:56] That dude was gonna be nice for us in six years to say it's unlikely So we can keep pumping them out there. I think they're funny. I think they hilarious But I don't want you posting it talking about yeah, polica get on it
[00:04:11] Distributing the drop like come on is one thing is like if you posted it just be as a sports news Like Mike sent one to me and I was like, you talk about the Katy train and he sent it to me
[00:04:21] And then I sent one back to him with the Drey Montrey But neither one of us believe this tree is gonna happen and has a liquor Fang you should be on board with us Sanit's not gonna happen
[00:04:34] Two three years ago you have real opportunities. I've real asses you get a massive real moves Polink it in make them Post post championship October 2020 when it was open to either redesigned players or make trades At that minute it kind of fills it out so
[00:04:55] Serap is not gonna happen Just do me a favor find something else to share that'd be pretty dope Well, first of all, I don't know because the bowls are 5 and 13 and games that's that Levine play this year And they're like something like nine and five without
[00:05:15] We're eight and five without so you know that could be something brewing there ever since I asked for Billy Donovan to get fired You know he got hurt Levine got hurt. The balls took off apparently so you know
[00:05:28] Eight five without him so he might be on his way out You know, I just don't know if the lakers. I don't know why laker fans think People want the angel or Russell like they're like we could just move D-Lo it's like who wants him?
[00:05:43] Like you don't want him I would if D-Lo came into the wild right now I would not pick him I mean I pick him man. He's like six seven I'll take them then I'll still out rebound We're running fives I'll still out
[00:06:02] But if I didn't make a smart decision with four minutes left in the game and we down with six is one 13 one oh seven against Dallas Yeah, I don't know if I can really use him there Yeah, I would like to see a very modern word to move
[00:06:15] You know, I think I would like to see him and Dallas with Luca Dray miles moving to TNT. Yeah, that's what I dream I'll move it triple signal You know saying about the be saying back chattel same batch Bumpy and Charles Ernie Kenny and Shack on stage
[00:06:33] Ernie gonna look like I'm man out nice job doing remote He's got a skill with Gail King now Yeah, but yeah, oh touchdown Missouri We finally got to touchdown in this cotton bowl that started a fourth quarter 14 55 to go
[00:06:51] Cody Shrader hits the end zone. So Missouri is about to kick the extra point 95 yard drive soon to be seven to three 10 in the extra point so Being an American There's one word that is stood out to me throughout our history Equality
[00:07:11] When I think of equals I like to think of women as my equal You know anything a boy can do a girl can do for the most part
[00:07:20] There's obviously physical limitations that get involved, but they can't do it if they can't do it. It's not because there are one You know as I look at equals I Think about sports and I just look at teams right so I go okay New York Giants
[00:07:40] Washington commanders that seems equal You know Buffalo bills Miami dolphins that seems equal So I'm gonna take the time to apologize to the Texas and them add these because I've been calling y'all weirdos for like 10 years now
[00:07:56] I've probably started when I was listening to Bob body Jones, you know now my daughter's about to go there And then I learned last night that all of these years I thought Texas in Oklahoma were equals But they are not
[00:08:11] What I learned last night is that I have nightmares about that damn song like everywhere I go if I even hear the slightest tune of a song all I hear is That's all I hear you know and I'm a Florida state fan
[00:08:31] So I know how annoying the war chant problem is For opposing fans But usually when I hear Florida state it's like beginning in the game Maybe a big third down, you know, maybe like we got to the red zone and you know like get
[00:08:50] Amped up or whatever but I tell you if he first did 10 he's do that the past And And as they were showing the fans around the stadium You know the Alamo bowl last night against Arizona for those not following
[00:09:06] You know every single oh you fan they put on that screen with the horns down Nightingale and Texas Texas just live in a rip three You know I don't think
[00:09:19] You know that grad it I've never seen Texas in person but I don't think that the law horns are just sitting around getting the first down going boomer sooner Yeah, no, no, you know to me like they aren't like if if Texas You know get to the
[00:09:37] Stop on second and two. I don't think I'm going to hear the eyes of Texas So when I look that Oklahoma last night I felt like a Little brother This bag in to watch bragging balls E with his big brother now
[00:09:58] I know that Texas has a 12 game lead in the all-time series They have a way bigger lead on an in 30 plus games But even an in
[00:10:12] At least acts the part as if they are on the same level as Texas. They truly believe in their hearts that they're on the same level of Texas The crazy thing about it is Oklahoma beat Texas this year Now, I don't know if just being a San Antonio
[00:10:31] Was close enough to Austin? That the sooner is wanted to put on a show and remind Texans That they're better that they were better than Texas for a Saturday this year But here's the secret Oklahoma fans You're not Unfortunately
[00:10:52] Unfortunately like no literally every single fan they showed like old people young people little kids You know like you know I have to say though like I did enjoy Lindsay was telling me one time she went to a bar in Wyoming with some of our neighbors
[00:11:10] And she said like 10 o'clock at night You know they went early to you know to the clock at night. They they turned all the music off In the bar they just started playing the national anthem and in the bar
[00:11:22] And they're just you know to go into the USA USA People so patriotic Because I've never heard a USA chant like I heard last night after that national anthem them old you fans like They love them some America. I tell you that much
[00:11:39] Anyway, let's turn the page because the wait is over Monday We are three days away From fun now controversy The controversy All the controversy You follow the money people follow the money we go to start off in the great state of well, you know the state of California
[00:12:07] You know at the Rose Bowl where we saw That young with the national title against USC when it gradients ever seen greatest game I ever saw college football was You know Michigan Alabama two teams that I think are pretty damn even as much as even you can be
[00:12:26] Then you know we go take it down to Louisiana down to New Orleans Texas and Washington So Mr. Lobby I know how you feel so I'm just let you have the floor tell me why Michigan ain't got a chance at hell
[00:12:42] Listen, it's not that all thing they got a chance in hell It's just that a At a friend of mine shot at my friend Call a dick send me wrote a book He's one of the you know people say it's great for last for some your time
[00:12:58] He's one of the great for last for some of my life over by met a McCreya And he set a phrase to me that just like stuck with me since 2005 Okay, you said an empty wagon makes the most noise
[00:13:12] And and and to break that down it was like He used an example if you see two guys in the club a two people ready to fight Right, you see one guy yelling the screen and making the big scene
[00:13:25] I'll do this. I'll do this. I'll beat you up above above above He was like if you see that guy and the guy cross from who's getting on information is calm He's like that dude has substance like a wagon that you push to the parking lot grocery store
[00:13:41] It's banging on a concrete everything else, but if you push substance into you put food in it You put something away down you put solid and solid stuff into this wagon. It makes those noise When Alabama Clapt calmly
[00:14:00] When they were announced as the four of team out of the four and the cost will play off You see what took us if it was water put the cap back on it Put it down and everyone just It was like okay
[00:14:16] These dudes believe that they were number one in the country Their coats blaze in their one in the country And they believe it each other. That's number one Michigan's reaction Not the same A lot of despair in that room A lot of a lot a lot a oh
[00:14:41] And then like some fake yeah Just that end of itself is enough if I'm a coach Every position group Meeting you play a low video you play it on the iPad You have to say anything like these these are already afraid of you
[00:15:04] This is what you do to these players and you said they're even Yeah, they might be even with the five stars and things of that nature But we get to that second tier your five star line back or fly back you know for at Michigan
[00:15:20] He rolls an ankle he misses a series Are you putting another five star or four star are you putting another three star guy Alabama's all offensive line could go down and They could bring in five four star guys Right off the rip and that's and that's difference
[00:15:42] I think the controversy that Michigan's kind of ride on us everybody versus Michigan Michigan versus everybody however you want to like you know flipping and freezing the vernacular Alabama's all already felt that way and they have Achievements to back up every time they felt that way
[00:16:03] So it was like So that's that your didn't have my first point. I like that so Michigan's filling it but then coach might be gone I don't know how much money you got to offer and exceeding the game out of Alabama
[00:16:20] I don't think NFL teams even call you got to Holders I don't think you I don't think they've called his agent He went that Caleb Williams deal You might have to give him that rubber craft parking spot situation
[00:16:37] Yeah, so you all go see me looking at my phone because Going you ran I got I got to grab some free real quick. I go ahead
[00:16:44] I got printer I got printer issues so you know I'm looking at my phone because that's where my notes are so don't mind me But Mr. Logical like I said he made my point that I was going to bring up
[00:16:54] Because everybody keeps saying it and I told him that our pre-meat Everybody keeps saying the same thing So now I got a two five Because at the start of this season I had Michigan and Alabama playing for the national title I had Michigan winning that game
[00:17:15] You know, I had Florida State in Washington Also in the play also I had Michigan Florida State Alabama beat in Washington. That was my final four so here we are you know, but this is the point that everybody keeps making And this is my return to that
[00:17:33] So Nick Sabin has been here before Alabama has all of these accomplishments You know what Nick Sabin has been here before he's players they've been there Jellum liberal a palino playoff games Isaiah bond has it played a playoff game Jocory a play to play off game
[00:17:58] Jason McClillan might have been on the roster in 2021 but he won't play it into playoff game Now Jim Harbaugh the other side of this You know Terrible bowl game record last year Everybody thought he had a layup against TCU
[00:18:14] James McCarty through two pick sixes and route to lose it by double digits to TCU With we could have had a Michigan Ohio State national title game if Ohio State were the big kick and Michigan would have played like they should have um
[00:18:31] He did have 345 yards in that game J. James McCarty passing So late Lee over the last month or so we've been hearing about how Michigan doesn't have a passing game there's been
[00:18:42] Oz and issues saying hey, you know he's been hurt you know well you don't what excuses are over You've had a month to heal So or new years Bring the best to the table and that's what we want to see This is the best defense Alabama
[00:18:57] We'll have played this season This is the best defense Michigan will have played all season And the same way that mr. logical just said Alabama has all these accomplishments Georgia did too where are they right now? You know they're out here getting ready to massacre
[00:19:17] I have team tomorrow You know now with that being said Setin up the domino's kids against Georgia against Georgia J. Elendil bro You know they always talk about game of inches He had two or three passes that Georgia could have picked up
[00:19:36] You know obviously the band I received or made a good play or the ball just been in there But you can't rely on winning that close I don't know if J. Elendil bro can make the intermediate throws
[00:19:49] That he needs to make the beat Michigan doesn't give up explosive plays J. Elendil bro specializes in the explosive play So he has the cannon for an arm but can he make the sideline decide line the sideline
[00:20:01] He chains moving throw that's what I have questions about he's already focused on coach Bill O'Brien talking about Bill O'Brien said I shouldn't even play quarterback You don't say well bill O'Brien's awful Can we sign up America? Yes, he's not good at his job
[00:20:18] Okay, I'm a broad in Georgia low. I think that's how you say it he low who was a former live-backer coach for Michigan who Got let go at the end of last season So maybe they have some intel maybe they have some things I know
[00:20:34] I know but intel and yeah Emotions A little bit yeah, so according to I say a bar Instagram and everything else you can get into so according to I say a bond I don't know if he was close to let the cat out the bag
[00:20:47] But he was talking about how Babbas only looking at tablets and all this kind of stuff to watch Michigan and they're not you know putting anything out there that could be seen You know, so maybe Alabama's focus or maybe Alabama
[00:21:02] Yeah, maybe Alabama was focused on the wrong thing You know because like I said I'm gonna give the floor back to you right now, but like I said before Nick Sabin has been here before
[00:21:13] A lot of those players have oh, I mean it's it's all about leadership and I think that Leadership he established that when he recruited them Being recruited to Alabama is an upper echelon division one program It's Over the last
[00:21:37] What called deceiving era. I mean obviously you go back to They're Brian and noise other guys and you know, they've been in national championships and Alabama's been a staple of college football forever Anybody under 21 They don't know about all that Keep my I got us 21 today
[00:21:59] Was born in 2002 He's born at the night of 11 so like he don't know about the history Alabama He may hear some rumbling but as far as his beat is ability to be recruited comes from The fact that since he was six or seven or eight years old
[00:22:15] Nick Sabin has been one of the pre-meared coaches in college football Yellowstone NFL but for the most part he's been a premier coaching college football Been a premier coach at Alabama you have top draft picks Hydrant trophy winners national championships
[00:22:34] Nick Sabin can just walk into a room and not even have to really recruit you here's like out of my Bamanists what we do so I think everybody there Everybody everybody knows you know what they can do there and I believe that they believe in the coach
[00:22:49] That's why like he doesn't hold his assistance. He lets them go get other jobs. He's like listen, I can make this happen And my beliefs So I think a lot of these players believe in that I think they buy into that
[00:23:04] It's probably a lot of players on Michigan that probably would have transferred if they would have lost so high-o-state Because I don't know if they believe in Harba being there
[00:23:15] Because we we we're gonna throw out a couple teams here when we do it in a fell talk just just in banter They have a realistic shot. I probably still in Harba away from Michigan All the turmoil That's supposed to be this this rally cry for the Wolverines
[00:23:31] Whereas Alabama just being ranked number four This year is enough to get everybody on a team To buy into the playoff like they probably really truly feel as if Even with the loss of Texas
[00:23:50] That they are the number one team in America. Well, they're like you know we'd be Georgia And they probably felt like they would number one because we talked about it in our pre-meat
[00:23:59] They were two in one after the UCF game correct you have that yeah, yes, I've game yeah And you and I would have a conversation like if they're gonna look like this foot of rest of season
[00:24:13] It's gonna be a lot of transfer guys that I would look at like Alabama might be the spot for me to go as from the quarterback position because Melrose bench one game And then I was sitting From their first loss in Texas They went to a street
[00:24:30] They ran the table they beat Georgia and they still they still plop into the customer playoffs in their minds at four That's the thing that I think can really rally a team the us Out Michigan versus everybody Is people on that team that don't give a damn?
[00:24:50] What happened with the science cylinder like I got another do with that have nothing to do with whatever Assisted was sitting this thing as a fine tickets that doesn't really resonate with me personally But if I'm on Alabama
[00:25:03] And I'm a lie backer or if I'm a while receiver or a tight-end or a guard And you're telling me that you think these three teams are better than me and Better than us I can rally by that because I can look at somebody else on my team
[00:25:20] And they not can believe that either It's due's on Michigan that don't give a damn that they were still in science It's not like it's not like this a dude out there thirsting running back who thinks like man
[00:25:32] I can't believe that we said we was still in science You don't give a damn about that walk that everybody Everybody in the crimson and and that crimson thinks that we should be number one And I think that's gonna be the thing that they can feel
[00:25:46] The science assumption that everybody does that's why you see people like McVay walking around like this You know and like you know, and so so like it's just one of those things You use football Use football league doesn't they go record the other team well
[00:25:59] Well, I think I can 12-year-old difference with Michigan was they would just Dude was just flying into all these different games and sitting in the crowd I think that might have been the difference if I don't know everybody's doing that Part of it but
[00:26:11] Yeah, but what I'm saying is like I don't know if that I don't know if that resonates with all the players I don't think all the players feel like they are personally being attacked Right with a point where that just narrative Michigan versus everybody
[00:26:24] Like they just depend on how much they like hardball. Yes, but there's two things that scares me for Michigan Number one Missouri looks like they're about the first-in-goal Missouri Two things that scare me for Michigan one Ready Michigan Get to tapes ready Michigan
[00:26:44] Michigan in Texas are the two most overrated pieces of trash in college football You know because all I hear about is how great they are how much resources they have And I don't see nothing to back it up Michigan has two national titles
[00:27:02] 1947 or so or 1948 somewhere around there and a split in 1997 But the year before the BCS started Texas Eight that much better but their last national title was that a four-mitched That's young National title that we talked about they made it back in the game
[00:27:22] Cropalcoi got her you know, but uh, but those are two teams that every year Michigan has the most wins in college football Then everybody else you know Texas More resources best job in the country even better than Alabama people say You know and winner results say
[00:27:40] So that's number one Uh, or actually three things now. I just go to the third thing Michigan bowl record under hardball hardball's bowl record 3 and 7 You know and I believe they were in a five bowl game loses streak now this was before the transfer portal
[00:27:55] This was before you know we didn't care about the bowl games and all that Does he have a problem Reboot of baiting his team once they have that month off You know because the uphill there's an art today you know the third thing
[00:28:11] Is what we talked about pre-meaning Is that Michigan is the one team in college football besides the surface of academies in Iowa That just have not adapted Like Michigan still plays 1995 football You know Alabama likes to be physical Georgia likes to be physical
[00:28:34] But they will open up the passive game is Ripped you a part if they have to even if it's death by a thousand paper cuts You know over the last few years Like before like if you came into like 20
[00:28:47] 13 and I told you that over the next couple years Alabama was going to have people like Jerry Judy Henry Rugs John Matchy Devontate Smith you would have looked at me and thought I was crazy
[00:29:02] Because Alabama never had those type of receivers that they would have a bright young A to a a jail in the hurts That's not what Alabama does but Alabama As they had a struggle hold on the sport
[00:29:16] saw that the sport was evolving and they said if we want to maintain our spot We got to do this you know saying Michigan on the other hand They look at it and say this is Michigan football
[00:29:31] So Alabama has the advantage if this game comes down to who has to adapt Like this plan A isn't working What's plan B? Alabama can win this game any kind of way that Michigan wants to play You know I don't know if Michigan can do that now
[00:29:53] James McCarty I talked about it 345 yards last year because teaching you But two pick sixes the game against pit state this year 8 passes total You know the last five games of the season he didn't really do much as far as offering a hand to the Michigan offense
[00:30:09] But he's going to have to this time it if these comparisons that I'm here and about him to Andrew look and Cursons are true He got to show it all Monday You know so who you got you taking bath off a shore
[00:30:23] I'm taking bath just because I mean this I think I think I saw a poll where most of the country is still rooting for Michigan I just think that even if Jalen Merrill isn't playing great Alabama has density to just
[00:30:43] Just don't just just the one the game physically right basically up front We talked about McCarty I don't know if you mentioned they was he's listed as 6 to read 2-0 6-3-2-0-3's been in Michigan for three years
[00:31:00] If you're only 203 pounds that means you're not a naturally big person Me and I put in on a lot of weight because 6-3-2-0-3 Steph Curry is 6-3 2-15 Yeah Andrew luck was a take Andrew luck was like
[00:31:19] Big lower half big body. I think they could may feel right now as probably 6-1-2-15-20 just a thicker bigger body yeah Calamera is probably listed at 5-10-0-5 so McCarty theoretically is four to five which is tall in the Calamera everybody's only
[00:31:38] two pounds lighter like it just doesn't seem like a big body the math I'm math and the fact that haven't seen them it's like the Brock Pretty can not jump you have really seen them in a precious situation where they're relying on his shoulder to carry them
[00:31:56] Right um sorry did get the touchdown so 143 Missouri Yes saw that uh this whole Ohio state game is weird because Wait we're missing your talent Missouri's gonna enjoy his victory because I'm pretty sure they're gonna win I'm not I'm not a national downside
[00:32:13] It's gonna be like five minutes or something like five minutes left if you have a mood of ball enough to Yeah Kevin Brown started to gain it 12 points Kevin Brown started to gain who I thought should have been Ohio State's quarterback all season
[00:32:26] instead of Cal McCarty McCarty had the relationship with Harvin Harrison son so you know I was like okay like I guess that's why they played a good Harvin Harrison yeah we don't say that name on this podcast so I Harvin Harrison this say this ain't easy
[00:32:41] but let it's right you know saying this ain't easy You don't say it but uh so like I like I don't think it's what we're but um yeah I just I think it's an easy money bet it's a simple bet just to
[00:32:58] Rob about especially considering that they didn't limp and it wasn't a situation like we had a few years back and we discussed it before when they didn't even play in a conference championship and I'm sure Georgia the Georgia yeah it was uh yeah
[00:33:18] an Auburn beat Georgia Georgia beat Auburn Georgia beat Auburn beat Georgia and Alabama in the regular season Georgia beat Auburn in the middle game it gave each one of them at least two losses Alabama only had the one so CFP committee put them in
[00:33:36] yeah Georgia got in that year that was the two a year that was the two of the Devontate Smith year so Georgia was 11 and one that only lost two Auburn and then Alabama's only lost was to Auburn as well but Auburn
[00:33:50] so if Auburn would have won against Georgia then it would have been Auburn in Alabama in the playoff yeah so Alabama just seems to have a path to the playoff say do it every year they understand the pressure and excitement understands the magnitude of the moment
[00:34:09] I'm not sure if Harba is ever really been allowed to just kind of be present in the moment it seems as if the expectation to just beat Ohio State is over his head all year long and then when he finally gets over that of hump
[00:34:29] now he has to focus on the ball game whereas every year this thing that is for Alabama beat Auburn that's it but that's the expectation it said it's not mentioned six to seven weeks out of the year with breakdowns
[00:34:46] like Alabama doesn't go into an Ole Miss game and October but the conversation being about can next save and beat whoever the Auburn coach is right in November whereas Harba or Ohio State coach for that matter that's their whole conversation no one cares if the plan I was
[00:35:11] or if no one cares if the play was gone since or Nebraska or if it's October 17th or October 31st whatever date is no one cares about those games they only care about the Michigan or Ohio State game even the Penn State game
[00:35:28] Levar and it says something is like you don't care about that when James Franklin Laws he was like that's a Michigan State Michigan or Ohio State thing to care about all you got to beat this one team Levar and Arizona's a damn lie
[00:35:44] you know he is he walked past me an airplane one time I saw him in paid manning and the Newark Airport and a fell players are gigantic there's like the biggest people we ever seen in your life like if I saw
[00:35:57] one of the field of Utah one time the biggest people ever did not always bright when it comes to football takes but that's the thing that you know there but like he said what he said was Val is like that's not a thing
[00:36:08] for everybody he's a damn liar I think I would all do respect Levar I think no don't you go check out I check out think about Utah be why you we used to say you talk if you ever listen any sports local sports
[00:36:21] radio Utah could be this one back when they're in the mountain west and be why you were so dependent Utah could have been playing New Mexico October 12th the conversations that they were calling in about
[00:36:34] was the holding word game that was the whole season the whole season came down to that game or Ohio State Michigan the whole season comes down to that right days on a great job at Ohio State
[00:36:49] following up for a couple of legends you gotta keep mind like the legends the recent legends the the natural championship legends that he's had to follow recently yeah he hasn't had the chance to match with championship but he's done he didn't
[00:37:05] the the team is an impurgatory but because he followed these legends and those legends are connected to this robbery every year they want to cut his head off I just wanted him to stop dying his hair and his beard
[00:37:18] no it's all you ordered to me let that great show well basically that that's that's the problem that that I think Michigan and Ohio say have that's why Alabama thinks it's going to be there gonna be more prepared for this game because it's not a narrative about
[00:37:36] win every game every week they just do it all the time but this is why Levar Arlington is lying and I say it would all be respected Levar don't let me down I'm just saying
[00:37:45] I know we can get it on the good to do because I care and I say a prayer for Samahaya every day even though Samahaya don't know who I am so Penn State has been trying to get Michigan in Ohio State's attention since they joined the big
[00:38:04] 10 Ohio State of Michigan just don't give a fuck about that's what he was saying what he was saying is that the thing here or no Penn State cares that's the point that I'm making it but he's talking about the fallout this is post-alot this was
[00:38:19] after the game was over he was saying how the Penn State fans are calling for Franklin's head because he didn't veto Ohio State he was like that's not our measuring stick that's how we measure our success of the season he's like that's how
[00:38:36] those teams measure their success versus because Ohio State is probably me think maybe that's the problem maybe that's the problem because state of the B.E.E. Ohio State or Michigan so maybe that's the problem maybe
[00:38:50] that but maybe it's maybe it's right maybe it's self-awareness like you know we were not gonna compete we're not gonna compete we're not gonna be more national titles on the Joe Pa they got more titles to Michigan imagine if Ryan Day was gonna get fired
[00:39:06] shitty by the way but who would have to be available but Kirby smart have to be available for you to find the link if it had to be available for you
[00:39:18] to fire him like Ryan Kelly you need you need a name well we're not on the street is but since you brought that up we're on the street is Ryan Kelly's just
[00:39:27] yeah part of it yeah hardball leaves they might go try to go that route I mean he made that he got the highs and trophy winner out of Ohio still but Arizona's staying but all right so check it out let me get back on track here so
[00:39:44] I say oh what I said to say that I'm picking Alabama with this game because I mean I just got a lady case I do think Michigan can win this game I think a lot of people think
[00:39:56] that it's the foregone conclusion that Alabama's gonna win this game I also if it was the other way around if Alabama was favorite I would probably like Michigan more but since Michigan's favorite you're pulling about how Alabama is like you know we just beat Georgia like why you
[00:40:15] favored over us that's just more ammo you know if you believe in that kind of stuff now Zach is entered Michigan star office of lime broke his fibula in the Ohio State
[00:40:27] game or Tibia wanted to he broke his fibula in his name right yeah so he ate there that's gonna give Alabama an advantage because up to date Michigan has only given up 18 sex to season you know so can Alabama generate pressure you know Michigan has a good
[00:40:46] defense of lime but they don't necessarily get after the quarterback they just play sound defense so they have to keep everything in front of them like I said make no bro throw the sidelines
[00:40:56] throws make them take the underneath stuff because if he goes over the top you're in trouble Miller has to take the six yards scrambling to get out of bounds when it's okay that's it
[00:41:05] you have because they have it all the way to the ball where he didn't just go just get to six yards Michigan has to play to quarterback with that dynamic ability this year you know
[00:41:16] then on top of that you know the other the other thing here is that Alabama averages 49 penalty yards per game so they gotta maintain discipline in this game you know that's a Nick
[00:41:29] Saban staple usually but the last two to three years they've just been getting penalties out there again out the ass he's probably made some concessions talent versus intelligence you know Michigan versus temperament yeah Michigan number one score in defense in the country second in total defense
[00:41:48] second in turn over margin so they got a four-s milleroles to throw those passes I was talking about where against Georgia he threw two to three that were sketchy that he got billed out by the receiver
[00:41:59] so Michigan has to take advantage of those plays that make the play and then my other question that I have if why I'm picking Alabama is I just don't know if Michigan's receivers can create the
[00:42:08] separation necessary to give JJ McCarthy the windows two throw it to we don't and we don't have a lot of evidence of him throwing into great windows yeah like we talked about in our pre-meaning
[00:42:21] well you said hardball compared him to he said no hardball said that he's going to be a generational talent generational talent for he didn't sport he knew you have any edge of luck do we have any
[00:42:35] evidence of him making generational throws no sport he knew is compared to the Andrew Luck Mark Miller has seen just fumble the ball yeah Mark Miller of ESPN compared to midset he's a
[00:42:50] more athletic Kirk cousins so you know I don't know neither here in my air shout out to Kirk cousins I'm a Alabama I'm picking Alabama I'll be cheering for Michigan because that was my pre-season pick
[00:43:04] so I'm willing to be wrong here if my pre-season pick could be right you know but then you go to the sugar bowl Washington Texas the team that everybody's been doubting all year long two five
[00:43:17] old every no Washington two five told everybody Washington was going to play off two five told everybody Washington was going to be Oregon twice even when Oregon was favorite by nine and a half but then you have Oregon beaten Washington in the your
[00:43:34] championship game in Carlton no I had no I had Washington losing to Oregon State during the regular season and then coming back and then was to come back and went into the back for a fight of game
[00:43:45] so I had to plan the wrong Oregon school twice in the big tent I mean packed well title game but you know but yeah but what happened in real life you know I picked Washington both times
[00:43:58] even when Oregon was not in a half point favorite because there's a problem people do Washington as what they think Washington is so you remember I kept saying over the course of this season yes Georgia is the two-time defending national champion but those dudes ain't here
[00:44:17] normal there's a gun they all played it right so people look at Washington and they see finesse packed 12 team that wants to throw the ball 60 times this year's hit locker right can't be physical right can't be physical can't you all Washington is a very physical team
[00:44:36] they are probably Oregon is probably the most physical team Utah is probably the next physical team in the packed well that it's washed yeah well you try to have like room and you got
[00:44:48] you talk it's a lot of like so we talk about the Paul Neasins and I hope people will start kind of paying attention to this this crap a player does coming out of the west between Hawaii
[00:45:00] then you know a lot of the packed former packed all Roman records coming through a lot of Roman raised guys a lot of guys that look like Roman raised that can just run they get about this Roman raised played defensive tackle
[00:45:13] and college and you look at them now he's jumping up the top rope off the ladder is everything else like that's the same dude yeah athleticism is ridiculous I talk about the the time I was at
[00:45:23] Denny's I was behind a dude he had to be I am not exaggerating he had to be six foot seven 450 pounds he was walking straight up like a statue I looked at his dude he had to hit like a
[00:45:38] head of friend of mine told me he's like it's called the booyah when they have that little nice tight little one at the top you don't look at this dude I'm like this guy one of the biggest
[00:45:47] humans I've ever seen up close you would think it would be hurting him nah he was straight Washington Oregon Utah even Utah State BYU a lot of guys they have players like that so Utah has
[00:46:00] a lot of physical players because they get like chrome in and get men who are like out of juko or they are post-mission they did their mission when they're like 19 came back to like 21 so a physicality from the pack 12 it just doesn't always translate because you don't have
[00:46:18] the arm talent at quarterback Washington has the arm talent and he's left handed so I think it's kind of the one people off because I think two of my people in the left handed story NFL
[00:46:30] whereas you just be a lot of left handed guy Steve Young Michael Vick so forth and so on but I you know what pinnicks just kind of you marry that athleticism from the court of
[00:46:42] acquisition and the physicality with the players you get from out west because you get keep down south has so many football schools Texas the Florida if you take a bat you go Texas and
[00:46:56] you go all way to Virginia you take that southern that southeast from part of your United States it's so many football schools you go west of Texas if you had a name of top of your head
[00:47:09] Mike you been in the Mexico it's probably a couple colleges that have D1 football programs they have two you got Arizona Arizona State out Arizona the state Arizona that on the prime
[00:47:20] stage you got BYU Utah out of just a Utah state Utah State so that's three realistically then you got Colorado Colorado State Air Force Air Force and then you go Idaho you got Boise
[00:47:39] Boise State that's it Idaho no I don't drop they drop yes so you got Boise State Washington State Washington that's it Oregon or a good state that's it and even California has housed Stanford USC UCLA they got some groups you know they got friends no they're not
[00:48:03] names but that's a huge state those still right about seven yeah so if you think about all the other schools that are east of that they take it's such a divine for the talent well look at looking
[00:48:18] Virginia you know James Madison O.D.U Liberty Virginia Virginia tag yeah that's one state and you got deep mind there people from Virginia Beach that are going just off Carolina look it's off Carolina you look at the Maryland even Maryland it's a small state they have multiple
[00:48:41] the federal and navy yeah yeah so it's just when you when you have teams like then the packed 12 I think we just don't feel as if there's real football talent out there they don't
[00:48:57] but they get all of the top talent because when you talk at all of the top talent that are Utah for the most part so this game is a two five special it's got all the story lines I like
[00:49:08] you got Sark going against his former team you know that he had the step down and all that stuff because of the you know issues that he was having you know that's where he was yeah that's where
[00:49:18] he got the name seven when Sark you know because he's only one more than seven games four out of his 10 coaching seasons you know then you have a re-match from last year's Alamo Bowl where Washington beat Texas 27 to 20 quit yours outplayed Michael Panics through for 369 yards
[00:49:38] Panics through 54 passes only for 287 they got but they did out rush Texas 158 to 51 and that game you know which brings back the point about being a physical you know their head coach
[00:49:52] killing the board you know one it 103 and 11 as a head coach in his career 103 and 11 and that is it and that counts being 12 and six at Fresno State so he's something like 24 and two
[00:50:11] at Washington you know Ryan Grub is just as good of a play caller as Sark is you know he was in line for some head coaching jobs rumored to UCLA if Chip Kelly would have been
[00:50:25] let go Missouri's taking a knee right now caught bowl you know as over 14 to three Missouri Eli Drick which gets to job done but people been sleeping all Washington's stay won because Washington didn't look the park you know they struggled with errors on a state they struggled with
[00:50:43] Stanford and from that point people were just waiting oh Utah's going to get them oh Oregon State's going to get them oh Oregon's going to get them and it just never happened you know so they've
[00:50:53] been battle tested and this isn't your night Michigan for example Michigan was undefeated and Ohio State was really the only game well Maryland they played a St. Corrigard's Maryland but let's say like you said Michigan now I the only game that care about his that game
[00:51:10] right they're talent level they're talent level in the big ten is heading shoulders above everybody else so you should know how you should lose anybody else and so so Washington you know they've been battle tested in a way that Michigan hasn't been
[00:51:28] you know but what's your thoughts on this game I'm torn because I think each team I don't think it's a situation where we had TCU TCU Michigan last year felt as if Michigan
[00:51:46] had way more talent than TCU and TCU is kind of like snuck in this St TCU scenario last year plan out this year they wouldn't have been in but it just amount of wins all
[00:51:58] I'm glad to say that because people are treating walls to like TCU TCU kind of back door the way in just through we gotta put somebody in situation right they could have put them in and I think
[00:52:13] at maybe this year they decided to avoid the most deserving because I heard that phrase a lot heard that vernacular the most deserving is not about the most deserving teams because last year
[00:52:26] TCU considered people considered most deserving right but then they went out and gave up a hundred and something points into games right one was a win one was a loss I like Texas I like the
[00:52:41] pedigree I like the fact that they're on the bounce back run I like Quinn I think he he really made I think he made his team believe in him because when he went through Ohio State out of high school
[00:52:55] I remember thinking dog you just is going to get prom you should have gone to your prom you go into Texas like there's no need for you to roll in Ohio State when they had I think Justin feels might have still been on
[00:53:11] either it was like Justin feels leaving but they have C.A. Stroud and they had up some other guys that were gonna take reps away and was like you should just go on your prom and roll with in Texas
[00:53:20] and then good to go starting June versus spring in the Ohio State and then the first going to be it look like he should have just not gone to Ohio State look like he should have just
[00:53:34] grinded with Texas and I think the past couple years he did that came back and better shape lighter haircut better health got the weight down and I think people were just kind of around you know rather than around them but well watching
[00:53:54] did they took the muscle they had on the field and they just grabbed themselves to play maker and pennies. Hygiene trophy finalists I think that's the difference I think that play making the ability from the quarterback position is the difference I love Quinn I love what he does
[00:54:18] but I'm gonna ride with the on the left shoulder of pennies even I was born in Texas I spent a lot of time in Texas two tech schools I put in the years in Texas I love
[00:54:33] I love what a burger shot at the water burger much in Swiss burger 2 a.m. I'll do you find a better burger on earth than the much from Swiss burger from what a burger at 2 a.m. in Texas
[00:54:44] like I've been a lot of burgers I've had some grads favorite burgers and sandals they shot out the water burger shot the water Tuesday but I'm gonna have a watch to think that I don't
[00:54:58] see team but destiny I just feel like you're striking what iron is hot right right right right right now was hot they have the guy and it's not like Troy Smith when Ohio State played for the
[00:55:18] and he was doing pressure on get out the pressure on get the pressure on get and came into the national championship game against Florida a little over week pennies has been done with the pressure
[00:55:30] was like a couple of weeks let's see I like the day they were like they ride those guys all way up until it's so he came in a game a little off but yes this game stimpled from me
[00:55:44] I'm shocked because I'm taking Washington as well but I think the key is can to Von Drey's sweat and buy a memory get pressure on pennies enough pressure because there's a pinnacle get it out of
[00:56:02] their quick you know he's got Roman doomsday he's got millenies got Polk he's got places to go with the football to match quit you were starting to 80 Mitchell and Xavier were you know this is
[00:56:14] the game I think where the Jonathan Brooks injury is gonna come back to bite Texas I think Washington will be able to run the ball I'm not sure Texas will be able to Texas's weakness on defense
[00:56:27] is that secondary so that's why it's you know in Paris I didn't know in the OU game when he had Martin was a boy for like this we passed that off right that's the plane you passed it off
[00:56:40] that's why it's imperative that Savandre sweat big 12 player defense of player to year it's imperative that he gets the pinnicks you know Dylan Johnson coming into the season people talked about how you know Washington's run game was going to be a question he had one running game
[00:56:56] and then you know what happened he went to the LA Coliseum and USC's defense gave him all the confidence that he needed for the rest of the season he ran for 240 against them in some change
[00:57:08] and in the last five games of the season included the rematch against Oregon he's averaging 136.6 yards for game 5.8 yards for Perry 252 yards total in two games against Oregon the shift 5.8 yards of yes so that's the first down every two hand dolls correct you know this is the
[00:57:32] mode you can this is for the game is if you can keep 5.8 you can throw the game with that for me I'll always try to find at least one step that I feel will tell the story
[00:57:46] that this is my stack on 55 red zone trips this season Texas is only scored a touch down or 49 percent of them so they need six is not three is the win this game and I just don't know
[00:58:06] if they're put to get it because you could say at times you know you could say like hey they were planning it's a good defense or somebody stop but to be 49 percent with all the talent that you have
[00:58:17] there's something scheme wise or something that just isn't red zone you haven't figured out maybe this is the situation was like if it's not there go to ball away go it away we'll take the
[00:58:30] feel go and we'll play good defense but they can't do that this time we talked about that we talked about that before like I and I used a rice game as a prime example they were rotating like 22 players
[00:58:41] on defense right they were rotating a full defensive front and right because of the heat and rice it to have rice couldn't match it like rice couldn't bring in five for our offensive linemen
[00:58:53] right to match the seven fresh defensive players that Texas was rolling in so it does so it might have been a situation where schematically it was like let's let's always put points on the board
[00:59:06] right but that could put you in a situation where you're down for nine minutes up in the third 20 to you're down 24 to 20 4th and 6 from the you know to eat and you get three yards
[00:59:26] do you just automatically say we'll just take the points or is it the lack of touchdowns and a red zone of the water season make you say we gotta take the three because taking the three is on a bad deal but it's like if
[00:59:44] you think about like man we've never been in a situation where we went forward not never but like we haven't been in a situation where we can start to meet from the fourth and three from
[00:59:54] the five that often or fourth and three from the eight we gotta get to the five that often to the point where do you just take the three points because that's what you've been doing
[01:00:04] oh yeah because that's probably not percent with that talent that tells me that you weren't trying to fit in. Soark doesn't strike me as the Dan landing type because when Dan landing played against Washington he just kept gambling or fourth down he was doing the brand-estaley thing
[01:00:21] you know and it came back to bite on because the last one that they didn't get pennants with two plays forty seven yards for the game with its score so you know if you're going
[01:00:32] to play that game you gotta do that when you're in the red zone you can't do that at midfield. Yeah what I'm saying is the fact that you've never done an a red zone all year
[01:00:41] you can't do it now. How do you because 24 or 20 nine months of in the third do we do we go for this fourth and three from the eight right or do we just kick this field
[01:00:56] though that we've been doing on year. Yeah so the saddest thing is like these guys watch film and I'm pretty sure one coach to take one thing they'll take another thing that analyze it somebody over analyze it somebody analytically analyze it and then they'll come up
[01:01:13] with the plan but we come down to it is like when you look into the eyes of your quarterback and the other person is four to two you want to run this read option to keep it. Well I think at this
[01:01:25] point you know Washington is still being doubted because you know the public talk is Alabama Texas rematch so you know we'll see both of us got Bama both of us got Washington we'll see what
[01:01:40] happens you know I'm ready for Monday but tomorrow we got the slaughter down in Miami you know Florida State down something near 40 players you know so like really they got the replacement players you know playing against the two-time defending national champion. Yeah he had a
[01:01:58] reason up there you know and there was some talk whether Brock Bowers was going to play or not because he's injured but he didn't practice today so I don't know if that means he's going to
[01:02:09] play but you know it's out there so if Florida State you know can hold this game I will say if they could keep it a 14 point game lose Brock 14 I will be impressed. The spread started out at
[01:02:26] 14 you know Jordan Travis of course injured we got 14 because the players were in plan or as a 14 of the rip. I was 14 off the rip you know well I think it was 14 if Jordan Travis was there
[01:02:40] I think you're looking at six and a half or seven you know I think his apps is brought up all touch down and he's like fully like his eat completely capable of playing yes is he like out
[01:02:54] yeah he might not play next year wherever he's going to be you know the like it's not that but we thought tape Roder Baker was going to be back because he has some experience but then this week
[01:03:07] he decided to go to the transfer portal so we're back to brought Glenn the freshman that started the ACC title game so now if you haven't looked at this the logical the spread is a full done
[01:03:22] a full done stuff. So what's the win what's the win? 14 points is a win I think 14 points is a win slash you know because you obviously want Brock Glenn to look better than he did in the ACC
[01:03:37] championship game against Louisville so if Florida State I would say if he could go who touched down with a pick Brock Glenn two touchdowns in a pick and Georgia Quinn say 31 17
[01:03:56] did he throw a test thing as low as although I don't remember to be honest with you no he did not I'm not seeing two touchdowns versus Georgia man even with the players is not playing
[01:04:09] well that there's like 30 to 40 players that aren't playing I mean the good news in the quarterback is your third string so you get just two freshman quarterback make it with a second start yeah and you know so so like this reminds me of I want to say
[01:04:28] it was 2002 this reminds me of the sugar bowl Florida State against Georgia you know who played quarterback that game where game is that it was Georgia Florida State 2002 in the sugar bowl
[01:04:46] I want to say it was 2002 I might be wrong no it was ankwan boldly playing quarterback for Florida State because of injuries so it just it must be something about Georgia that just brings out
[01:05:00] the worst in Florida State's roster you know in injury luck and I guess but I believe the final score of that game was something along the lines of 26 to 10 so if you could get something like that
[01:05:17] I think that's a win and you can live with that because oh it was 2003 so it was 2003-26-13 was the final score I think that you just got to have to live with you know at Paul Bolton with
[01:05:32] 614-78 yards in the touchdown what is the networks think it is so we got four we got five versus six what channels it on the ESPN this is all ABC I believe let me double check that ABC let me double check that
[01:05:48] like what I am disappointed in is that the orange bowl is usually a night game you know so it's going to be weird seeing it at like 40 after dude but they have to play at that 40 after dude because
[01:06:01] you got lions and cowboys later so you know you got to think it out there and a fellow has been taken the spotlight away from every other league the last two weeks my back last two weeks yes
[01:06:13] obviously so ESPN four clock game 40 probably one of the lower rated games yeah the the the spread is a dove the over under is 44 and a half so you know hold on time up
[01:06:29] the over under is 44 and a half yes but the spread is 20 yes so that has like 30 the 35 the 14 35 14 something along those lines but 13 13 34 31 14 something like that yeah something like that you got all birds like a reasonable over bit you got all burn in Maryland which
[01:06:56] will be a good game no no tongue of a low end net game you know he's out he's not playing but he can't please you heard no no he just opted out you know I'm guessing he's going to
[01:07:08] probably try to go to NFL or something but the game that I'm looking forward to tomorrow bro at dude Easter let me get my channel here dude Easter on ESPN so proceeding the orange bowl we have the game you remember how I said Michigan and Alabama were even
[01:07:29] correct this game is a mirror again what's good no no that's Monday you got Penn State and Ole Miss because you come up with it's in his game Penn State's only losses Michigan or Ohio State Ole Miss is only losses Alabama George you know
[01:07:50] late kiffin James Franklin both criticized because they can't win the big game two coaches that keep your relevant keep people in the seats sometimes somebody I didn't think of how I talked about
[01:08:03] Russell Wilson needed like that oh by my angry translator yeah somebody's 80s and people who call the shot to these universities need to do in their ear this says you make it be on paper hey man
[01:08:20] just to keep one in nine and 10 games you may my skin crawl ask me that question we saw we saw it every home game you remember that what's that yeah you're making my skin good crawl just by asking me that question like I don't understand what you're saying
[01:08:38] I just remember when Michael you feel like when he uh Michael Keaton Keaton whatever when he actually went to like the Correspondence Center and he did it for Obama yeah he was behind him it was like sometimes you need that and I think a lot of these
[01:08:53] lot of these universities Ole Miss Penn State you just need to be thankful that you are prominent and relevant 10 and two is a great year in the sport yeah if you play 30 or 12 basketball games a big a football game is going 10 it's a pretty solid year so
[01:09:21] they see somebody that says listen man we go with this we sell it 110,000 seats a week we sell out the white game with all the white t-shirts we tailgate we sell them out parking
[01:09:34] passes we're making plenty of money now you guys go out there and put them to good show because as of right now as you see just beat the big 10 Missouri just beat Ohio State
[01:09:48] so now Penn State got to go out there and put it on Ole Miss but I love Lane Kiffin he's his cocky chiss riding around with his recruits and a Bentley that's like a Jackson Thart
[01:10:03] yeah we're going to ride around this Bentley you could post it on your Instagram I'm going to drive you around Jackson Thart from Utah yeah get to do from the state of Utah to move to Miss
[01:10:16] there's a lot of dudes it from Mississippi that Moody Utah but they're not blonde hair blue wide dudes from Mississippi Moody is a lot of Negroes moving from Mississippi to Utah. Let's take a Kiffin he's doing it up you know Ole Miss you know has the number one
[01:10:33] transfer portal class coming in to include Walter Nolan you know star defensive tackle from an him you know part of that Jim Boe class you know so Ole Miss is going to put the SEC West
[01:10:46] or there is no SEC West anymore Ole Miss is going to put the SEC on notice next year but real quick what do you think the spread in this game is live from the compressor I got Ole Miss
[01:11:01] favorite by how about Penn State by 4.5 you know said over under 50 and a half so on the end of half so you got them when you're 30 28 I don't know what's respect from Penn State
[01:11:24] because they fire their office coordinator so I don't know what kind of Penn State we're going to see tomorrow so you know I'm not even going to make a pickle in that game I'm just taking over
[01:11:35] like that and yeah no that no we go move on you know and say so the NFL Saturday night we talked about it Dallas and Detroit will get to that in a second but let's real quick run down
[01:11:48] the clinching scenario so we're going to take it from aFC to NFC okay you got Baltimore with a win against Miami this weekend clinches home field advantage and they clinch the AFC North Miami with a win just puts themselves in position to possibly get the one seed
[01:12:15] with a win next week Cleveland clinched the playoffs with a birth well they would have win against the jet's last night you know frayers out to a larger more hopefully he's going all right
[01:12:28] Buffalo is in with a win and this is where it gets weird so I'm gonna try to say this is fast back in so a win and a Pittsburgh Lawsertie and a Cincinnati Lawsertie or a Pittsburgh Lawsertie
[01:12:44] and a Jacksonville Lawsertie and the other one I'm not even going to read because it's just like like 12 different scenarios I'm not going through it all you know Jacksonville clinches the south if they beat Carolina and Indianapolis in Houston both lose this weekend
[01:13:05] so Indianapolis got the Raiders Houston's got Tennessee so both of them lose there you go Kansas City which matches the AFC West with a win and a playoff birth which they have not done yet
[01:13:21] to my surprise people keep talking about how bad the energy south is the uh the Indianapolis State that much better yeah not that much better all Kansas City has it
[01:13:35] looks good at all they're gonna clinch yeah or if Kansas City wins or or or tie you know of course they could clinch with a Raiders and Denver Lawsertie let's see what we got here my
[01:13:49] anti you know in addition to the plan for home field they don't clinch the AFC East with a win if they lose it's a Baltimore Buffalo Beach New England we set up the AFC East title game
[01:14:03] next week that's where you bump into my ankle yeah yeah that's why the NFL has the last week of the season they're all the vision opponents yes beautiful I think the NFL they are masters
[01:14:17] of the dramatic hence why people think is scripted because it's it's so it's so well thought out that it feels scripted because they just set it up to where this is how it plays out right
[01:14:33] it's like to do their hangs up by the bathroom and you want to watch you know how many girls I'm like ill because he positions himself by the bathroom right it's not loud you can smell his
[01:14:46] he knows everyone has to come to the bathroom lead a bad man how are you doing it's like I just set it up that way and the NFL does the same thing they set up the Thursday night games that way
[01:14:56] they flex one-day night games now they flex Sunday night games they just make you work to the point of the Thursday night games yeah I think about did you see the excitement last last thing
[01:15:08] Cleveland yeah yeah doing those shirt on in the helmet because a lot of those there was so many those just like I'm not going outside of my street like I'm a big dude I'm pretty insulated
[01:15:20] but I'm not still going outside what have thought comes helmet on right and then the Mercedes been stadium because they want to play us in the playoffs but they know so there's a team
[01:15:32] that got screwed about a Baltimore Ravens last week and it wasn't the San Francisco 49ers it was the Rams because next week San Francisco is going to have something to play for potentially
[01:15:49] when they wouldn't have if they would have won that game so in the NFC you know the Troy that's clinched the North there's still a lot for the number one seed obviously they need caps yeah you
[01:16:01] know so what so so things would have to happen the 49ers are your NFC West champion Philadelphia clinches the NFC East this week with a win and a Dallas Law Certi or if they tie
[01:16:14] in Dallas loses uh the Rams clinch a playoff berf if they win in Seattle loses or if they win and Green Bay and Minnesota Ty so the Rams will get into that condition okay
[01:16:34] Phil I got the Rams in in that scenario yeah so the Phil it's all said Philly clinch with the NFC East would have waited a Dallas Laws or a tie in a Dallas Laws
[01:16:44] San Francisco can clutch the number one seed if the Troy to Philly lose so the Troy to have Philadelphia would have the lose yeah so that's what I said next week the Rams are
[01:16:58] screwed because the 49ers have something to play for so they might as well just beat the Giants this week so they can you know you know Seattle can make the playoffs this with a win
[01:17:09] and a Green Bay Minnesota Ty the Tampa can clinch to South with a win or a tie in Atlanta Laws So there you go so those are your scenarios for this week
[01:17:27] So let's get to it Detroit Dallas what's the key school you got and is that Dallas by the way Sad Dallas Dallas been playing great at home I've seen it on the feed it Detroit just clenched
[01:17:44] the north that in every stuff is a victory because they haven't done it since like I said since you and I were 12 years old and I think Dallas these are bounce back game coming home is your
[01:17:58] bounce back game right I saw like a little side by side comparison of that versus LeBar Jackson the stats granite there's no context but a lot of his numbers are at home he's a top two quarter back
[01:18:15] at home he's eight to 12 on the road which bounces out because around five when you put all the numbers together which is where like he ends up because you know like his home record is so
[01:18:28] extraordinary I'm taking Dallas over Detroit I think last week the loss being a tough loss you know except a penalty here opponent of the there a hold here a hold there first down conversion
[01:18:45] you know you know third anchor version here you know just get the go yeah so I'm taking Dallas as well couple things here you know I talked about Nick Mullins last week he threw for 411 yards against
[01:19:01] Detroit he also threw four interceptions against Detroit so you got to jekyll high feature of the Detroit defense the defense has been sketchy stop throwing ball if you know three and insert you start
[01:19:15] ran a ball well if it's something that mr logical said earlier about Michigan where he said if they have some kind of a tritian you know who are they bringing in versus Bama being able to replace
[01:19:28] with or star and four and five stars that's the same thing with Detroit you know there's starters on defense you know eight in Hutchison you know Brian Branch they got players but the problem is that
[01:19:43] I think they get tired because they don't have death you know and that's gonna hurt them against Dallas there were rumors that CJ Gardner Johnson could come back this week I don't think it's likely you know
[01:19:55] so he'll find it be back next week but yeah so I think that Dallas is going to win this game I don't think they're going to win by the 24 points that they've been going to win at home by but you know just
[01:20:07] win by one that's all you got to do all right did we go to my hometown MVP leader Lamar Jackson welcome him in number one passing yards into NFL two a ton of Iola no Jayden water this week
[01:20:27] so I'll have to it's not practicing but I expect them to play Zay Flowers is it practicing not sure if he's going to play all right what's the word is the logical I mean man the way I saw Baltimore play last
[01:20:44] with the incentives go because every other team in NFL has their group weeks of bad weeks you look at Baltimore's retro they got it playing good I guess they had the they needed to
[01:20:57] point return but my argument listen as a fact seeing sort of my opinion I think one of the most wonderful things about me is like I literally welcome and an opportunity for some other information
[01:21:12] that come in that makes me wrong so I can learn from this new information coming in I think it's a remarkable thing is I think it was like oh I had his whole opinion set up
[01:21:26] and then I turned out to be wrong because like I talked about Baltimore be 95 if it was in for Zay Flowers jet sweet pass or the the pump return touchdown against the ramps
[01:21:42] that was my argument last week and then I watched Baltimore go out there and play 14 on the 11 because that's what it looked like it was just look like they were just hands and every passing
[01:21:56] lane from the screens they got any exceptions on screens they got an exceptional crossing routes again it's such as on deep scene brouse they got an exceptional pulse rouse they were literally everywhere they were harassing brought party and I watched a lot of essential school games
[01:22:15] I didn't see party look what I getting hit it wasn't like he was getting hit in the balls he just was they were just there they had it like steamers as a corner deflecting a pass you had another deep safety deflecting the power hammer to hit
[01:22:31] the ball hammer of Cal Hamilton who was remember guard the last couple of years is a guy who couldn't cover but yet Baltimore is found a way to make him into a star granny's a star at that position
[01:22:47] so it was like Baltimore just was so overwhelming that I don't see how to a who play so much all the time he if you watch my image side the Chris I'm gonna feel like
[01:23:01] oh cable even listen to this that back foot what do you want to hear me talking the second back that back left foot and the route is this is the first read this is two this is three
[01:23:22] two way hits that first one quickly Baltimore so overwhelming I don't know if he has confidence to hit that first one so here's a question I know this is probably how to grab I
[01:23:38] noticed something that you know you probably hear more so in college sports you know what you talk about big wins and all this kind of stuff but I would have to think that for Baltimore there's
[01:23:50] some kind of hangover effect you know it was the Sunday night game you know west coast got to come back across country and then play another high powered offense you know so I would imagine that
[01:24:05] there's some kind of potential of a hangover factor that could get Baltimore off to a slow start and put them in a hole the new thing is this slow start yeah like like like like a hangover effect
[01:24:22] coming from the west coast Sunday night game big win against who people thought was the best team to NFL I would think that if they're if what they did was based off a timing and that just
[01:24:32] threw force okay they run the ball that like they they just a pair of power all offensive team and then they overwhelmed you defensively so I just feel like winning doubt I think Baltimore could come out in the first two drives offensively the first defensive drive
[01:24:51] that they're on the field the first offensive time they're on the field and just overwhelmed you was power and getting into the flow of the game blitzing muscle enough jammy you guys up especially because to what isn't I'm not I'm I'm just I'm not an expert
[01:25:12] but I remember watching the chiefs game the the Miami and chiefs game in Frankfurt when that first read was there and water was open probably like late in the first half like that last drive the drive before Tyre Eke fumble uh I remember watching that drive
[01:25:34] and two was just on point point point point point. Tyre Eke fumble they should have devised him can see recovery that goes on for the touchdown I then he went in a half time down 21 0 there were drives when he came on the second half where it wasn't there
[01:25:56] and then the punning can't see anything to offensive with his second half but then it was like one or two drives when they scored your touchdowns where to hit that back foot let it go let it
[01:26:07] go let it go first down first down first down touchdown I think Baltimore will put you in position of where they make sure you don't get that comfortable. I see I think that you ever heard those stories
[01:26:22] like you're just talking to one of your female friends and they were talking about like yeah I don't know like I thought he liked me but he never made a move you know I tried to give
[01:26:32] him the signals you know like he just didn't do anything so yeah I think Baltimore was talking to Miami last week against San Francisco. It's cars like don't come out it was just
[01:26:46] no because you know Mike McDangio is a shana hand dude you know came up with shana hand under shana hand and I think Baltimore was given Miami a signal of this could be you but then but then when they
[01:27:06] come out on Sunday it's a whole okay joke and whatever Miami's expecting they're going to get something different based on what I saw Baltimore put on San Francisco I can foresee a very similar result 28 17 28 13 yeah I'm just talking to where something where you're just looking at
[01:27:31] you're looking at the game and Baltimore could be up 70 and Miami gets to fall back and you don't think that Miami's going to get I think Miami fans after Sunday like Christmas is
[01:27:45] going to give us a little finger I think it gave me a whole salilically he texted me earlier I was I was I was sitting on the messages between you and him so when I saw that I didn't
[01:27:56] really get to like the digest it and I had to leave but he feels like Miami can win and I think he says something like I think I'm a shot about really good but I think as he said here we out
[01:28:08] right there you go he's like I'm gonna say it I think Miami wins I'm not trying to be a home or pick that's what it was it wasn't like that was like that's the pseudo hear me out a lot of media
[01:28:21] on the recent bias kick I'm taking Baltimore but forget both these teams will play Sunday for the fourth time in five seasons a lot of players on both sides and familiar with each other
[01:28:32] huh not to mention Calvary and we'll see but I think that was in Baltimore too to get last year okay I want to let them know like well this is my problem okay this is my problem with Miami
[01:28:45] I'm just texting Chris yeah this is my problem with Miami they miss a lot of tapers they miss a lot of tapers and when you have a team like Baltimore who isn't necessarily explosive
[01:28:59] in that way you can't extend their plays by missing tapers you know when you get Gus Edwards for a two-yard game you can't let that two become four you know you can't let Z flowers
[01:29:13] catch a eight-yard crossing route in turn that's a twill and I think that's where Miami gets in trouble because yeah but the happens to everyone but the thing is that with the team like Baltimore
[01:29:30] is that they they do they do simple things to make you do that they do simple the zone re-run where you just miss read it and like the bar is going up to the silent
[01:29:45] 15 yards. Well remember last year they played early last season if I remember I was crazy again I think that's a pretty good yeah Miami outscored them 28 to three in the fourth quarter you know I don't like that number use a different number
[01:30:03] the final score was 42 to 38 two a through for four hundred 69 yards and six touchdowns that put them right in MVP race he threw two interceptions as well Lamar Jackson threw for three 18 three touchdowns ran four hundred and nineteen of the touch
[01:30:18] but he ran for a long touch so so this is going to be up to the knee he that was in the heat of Miami right in the year this this this time of the year now I think it was a
[01:30:29] more actually I think it was that yeah was it Baltimore was it in Baltimore but it was that was it was a high the Maryland is high that's different people think like Miami Miami humidity obviously is different jersey humanities ridiculous not Maryland
[01:30:45] Maryland that Maryland Virginia humidity is just like Korea is like walk those swimming pool yeah and it was early in the year no I think this would be a good game I just don't think
[01:30:54] I don't think so either yeah I don't think not water without water that means you got a hit without water you got a hit Tyree you got a hit Tyree deep once like you got to hit them for one of
[01:31:13] 40 45 year over the top routes at least once and then he has to take Tyree get a get a 160 yards receiving which he's capable of you know I think that like I said I just think
[01:31:29] I just think Baltimore's gonna win I don't think that they're gonna come out here and go 35 the 7 or something I think it might be that and I said think I didn't think that last week I really
[01:31:39] whole Harley felt like San Francisco was going to have a real show I think that I think that after this game like I was like I was originally gonna say I think after this game Chris will just
[01:31:50] give us the middle finger I think the rest of Miami fans will just say I thought we were done with this fraud shit not because I think even after that they still got to AFC championship running them
[01:32:02] they got another shot like it's not like if it's a Buffalo game like if it was Baltimore Buffalo and then Baltimore made them not as bad as I'm telling you right now I'm telling you right now
[01:32:14] Miami still has a run Chris I'm not trying to put nothing out into the universe but if my I'm losing this game I'll fall off a way you division yes and I mean think about that like Buffalo come in in there and be granted it's at Miami
[01:32:30] it's a good as I'm gay right yeah but we're already right that's one of Buffalo wins because I got Buffalo beat knowing on this week is just imagine but just imagine Buffalo's mindset
[01:32:42] three four weeks ago keep going I got to grab a water almost three four weeks ago they left us for dead and here we are now with a chance to witness division I don't think Miami wants that you know
[01:32:57] so the best way to avoid that is to beat Baltimore you know with like I said the other day I felt two a left two or three touchdowns on the field against Dallas last week where he had
[01:33:08] time re but Parsons was getting told you know Dallas was getting pressure's autumn and he just went even a wrong place with the ball he under throw any over through it and he's going to Baltimore
[01:33:24] like Baltimore's just different at home I talked about this earlier this season before the Rams gay you know where you remember what Baltimore did to Detroit and Baltimore we've seen this
[01:33:38] you know I think Miami has the firepower to keep it a close gay I don't think it's going to be a blowout I do think Baltimore may start out a little sluggish based on what I was saying earlier about
[01:33:50] coming from the West Coast Sunday night gay you know intense like you don't normally play San Francisco and Miami back to that you know so being having to get to the level that Baltimore
[01:34:03] has to get to the play those teams back to back is a tall task especially if Z-flowers doesn't play or he's had there a little bit especially if Kyle Hamilton has had there a little bit so I think
[01:34:16] Miami keeps it close but that's about all I got I got a man who's about two possessions All right then you know up in Orchard Park you know by this well talking about the bills
[01:34:29] I got the bills beat bill yeah agree with that yeah I just think that you know Billy's that he had his fun in the sun I don't know the West Coast tech university yes sir go topers
[01:34:43] you know say like you know he had his moment against a team that is obviously checked out you know and I don't think they checked that I think it's just a matter of like
[01:34:55] there's only so much you can do or no like like courtless sudden went out early last week you know with the head injury so we don't even know if he's playing this week but he went out
[01:35:03] early with the head injury and then yeah yeah yeah yeah I'm talking about the wangling you know so so you know courtly sudden went out early you know so Denver lost their best receiver their
[01:35:14] their weapon and then New England just I mean the game the game was won with the kickoff bumble that's where New England won the game because they ever had just scored he had moment
[01:35:26] of they were coming back bumble to kick off New England picks it up runs it in and you know yeah but well less than two minutes left Denver had to ball back and the ineptitude of
[01:35:40] showing Peyton why I think that's how bad New England is like the best thing like Denver had to ball with a chance to win I just think that I believe they called a screen pass on first down
[01:35:53] that either went for a loss of yards or didn't work out at all I can't recall I just remember thinking like you got the ball back because it was 20 it was 20 I think I was talking
[01:36:07] to you and I was like kind of running around I finally got settled in in my house and it was 20-27 now like what is games over yeah I was driving I was driving for a while I was doing
[01:36:19] instead I was like on the roll or whatever like let me take a quick shower took a shower got out the score was 23-15 Denver had to ball back and I was like I've only in the shower a couple of minutes
[01:36:31] yeah combat shower style got out came back games tied Denver's getting to ball back they got the ball back all of them in them at home my daughter's asking me why people don't have shirts on I mean like
[01:36:45] my kind of goal is Denver December I know it was cold I was there before but I was like okay they go make this run and it didn't happen and then I believe Bill was playing potentially for over time
[01:37:03] yeah I don't know if he just saw something or he figured I'm gonna run it down to where he unified punnet to them is not enough time but that's what it got into a third and two they got into a
[01:37:15] third and two in zappy just hit a good throw you know for about 15 16 yards but though on second down the play call was we taking us over time yeah first first and second down looked like we taking us
[01:37:29] over time I mean the bill goal was for 54 it was a dude that had already missed a field goal missed an extra point so you know it wasn't a guarantee that getting to feel going right
[01:37:38] yeah these kicks are pretty solid for 50 plus I don't know the number of how much time just general in the league I'm imagining if we did the math we could probably look it up maybe
[01:37:48] have like some AI system look it up for us but I believe these kickers are probably somewhere in a range of like 78 to 82 percent from 50 yards across the league right right they're probably
[01:38:03] it's like back in the day where it was like nobody was making it from 50 all right so pop quiz time let's just let's just who leaves the league at time of possession I mean we talk about buffing the
[01:38:22] wingland but you want to give me that kind of an easy layup now I will give you that easy layup this the next game that we're going to talk about drama possession time I'm gonna take a
[01:38:37] filly is the team that's going to beat your falcons this weekend Chicago leaves the team time of possession yes they probably also lead in the red zone turnovers two right problem I imagine you said you really wouldn't a lot of games so they have the ball a lot
[01:38:53] that means you that the missile out of field goals which doesn't really happen to leak as soon be pretty accurate or you turn the ball over in a red zone you know I'm not even a falcon band
[01:39:03] and they frustrate me because I feel like you know whenever we make picks or whenever you make picks there's always 18 that you just can't figure out that's Atlanta from the like when I pick
[01:39:15] them the win they lose I pick them the lose they win I just can't get it right it's like that when you walk to the casino you see that wheel and you don't really know like what all the stuff
[01:39:25] on the wheel means on a table you can bet on it it may be hit something but you don't know why you don't know why you said it just tables like that's the focus yeah so yeah so I got Chicago went
[01:39:39] in lots of just the fields up in their grill you know I think that I think he you know will take the chances we talked about it that ridder won't take but I think that's going to get them in trouble this weekend I I'm gonna say reluctantly
[01:39:58] I picked in the napkins last week in Atlanta finally won a game about more than two possessions yeah first I'll just sit there first time keep that in mind like maybe they got
[01:40:10] the ball bit of you don't maybe they got the ball bit of yes momentum or maybe Justin Fields will come in there and audition I believe last year he it was one play where they dropped nine
[01:40:24] dudes in the coverage yes because no no I'm talking about the Atlanta Chicago game I don't have to give me two years ago but he was right all over the place but he was cramping in between possessions so it was one possession I think they might have
[01:40:41] had the ball at the 25 like agricultural resin 25 somewhere and they dropped nine dudes in the coverage because for the previous two drops with your drives Justin Fields was cramping up so he couldn't run so they just dropped nine dudes oh yeah I remember that now yeah
[01:41:01] because he just was so either dehydrated his cramping up so bad he couldn't even run now I was thinking about the one side he was like like just doing it over here
[01:41:11] now I was thinking about what I was like agofan they gave about the one play with even playing against the trade like everybody just paused and he like threw the ball away or something
[01:41:20] like I was thinking about that play but yeah I got it I got Chicago uh did Atlanta just because I got I got I got I got a jump back on my squad yeah you know did
[01:41:32] I got I got my confused and one of my confused and games a week because this team just a few weeks ago got shut out at home then yeah the last Vegas the last Vegas the last week they
[01:41:49] won a game in Arrowhead without scoring an office and touchdown you know so they didn't need to be the pass after the first quarter yep they are on the road at Indianapolis who has a chance
[01:42:02] to mix some noise in the AFC South you know because we don't know uh or you actually you told before we went on Trevor Lawrence is out this week yeah at least that's like it could be different
[01:42:12] with we know it's Friday yeah when I was Saturday morning midnight afternoon night yeah could be so so Trevor Lawrence doesn't play curl a lot I can definitely win that game if they do I'm still going to pick Jacksonville but if they do the Colts have a chance
[01:42:33] with a win over the Raiders to take command but if C. Solve go on instead of final we could have a season and I picked the Coats I think the Coats believe in guard dementia I think they
[01:42:43] believe and what they do I just I just feel like I don't think a lot there's a few teams that really separated themselves as far as like this they're their records get the Miami you got Dallas
[01:42:55] you got Philly you got Baltimore and Baltimore definitely it's crimson of a crimp Buffalo's moving away up there you got a lot of teams that are 9 10 now 11 when teams but if you look around if you look at each one of those teams show the Baltimore Baltimore's
[01:43:13] floor might be their quarterback doesn't throw a lot of touchdowns and that could maybe handle them Dallas is they don't be good teams in the road my knees they're at what 11 wins they don't beat teams above 500 Philly has been playing playing with fire for the last seven weeks
[01:43:37] so it's not a lot of teams that are really stepping up saying like yeah we're the crimson of a crimp I think Indie's one of those teams that just they was hanging around hanging around hanging around
[01:43:48] and they're gonna put a couple of wins together they're gonna win at the vision and now a team like Buffalo might have to come see them in their own need of or look as oil field
[01:44:01] I think yeah look as oil field yeah I would love to see the Raiders higher Antonio Pierce you know full-turn but it didn't happen though have we seen that recently I don't think we
[01:44:13] don't think so but I love it you know but the Raiders of 43 since he took over you know obviously like I said they're playing for their playoff lives as well so I want to hope for them I just
[01:44:30] feel like yeah I got the hope for them I just don't see I think Mark Davis one of those guys is going $130 million at Jim Harbaugh this next team like I said they got to get the win this we could
[01:44:41] guess the giants you know because they got the 49est possibly playing for something next week so they slip up this game they could find themselves out of the playoffs the Los Angeles ranks
[01:44:54] I mean I had him at 413's with a fact that even in the conversation in December is a testament to Sean McVeigh because Sean Vey he wasn't quite on my Sean Peyton I don't like him
[01:45:04] love it right but he definitely was close to where it's like I felt as if when he was kind of threatening a retire and go to the booth right here I was like come on Melwell you doing that but
[01:45:17] and I decided it's like he probably was like yeah well I'm really really good at this job right and I don't think you're giving me the pieces of the power or the leverage or the
[01:45:26] as security that I believe I deserve right I got them being a giant just got them to giants with kind of in shambles yeah wall or people talked about that wall to play against
[01:45:38] Philly last week I've like out a few plays earlier he got rock yeah and they didn't take him out of the game and I was talking to him I came from I don't know if I was talking to
[01:45:51] him I was talking to him I thought I'd been talking to Chris I was talking to Chris and I was like they can't the clock's running on a couple of those plays so the referees
[01:46:05] and the neurosurgeons and all the people watching if they stop the game while the clock is running the giant so I have time outs just to walk wall or up the field right and the giants
[01:46:19] get to like regroup and get a good playoff it would be pandemonium but he definitely has something he definitely was off the rock because he got hit on the sideline it was in could be past you should
[01:46:33] down then but then those other two completions but yeah yeah we got ram's five and one in there you know game sister by week average in 32.4 or 138 or a 433.8 yards per game in that stretch
[01:46:51] match to the other thing they only lost was the game to Baltimore that we talk about with the puppeter and the other you will point you have giant start and tie rod tailor this week
[01:47:00] you know the de Vito experiment is over praise the law it you know we got Tampa I got Tampa over New Orleans true no and if that line of does lose to Chicago then Tampa is your NFC
[01:47:15] South champion you know so Saints and Falcons next week you know one of my favorite robberies so mean nothing so it's so it's so it's so it's a mean absolutely nothing so over the last three
[01:47:28] games Baker may feel eight touchdowns no picks over the last three games dirt car eight touchdowns 200 sessions now if you told me that for Baker may feel I would be like I can see that
[01:47:44] if you told me that about dirt car I'm just like for real eight and two yeah just don't look like when you watch the Saints play it just doesn't look like that because it's they don't
[01:47:56] as a matter of the belief when the office of Lyme was yelling at him a couple weeks ago it was like just this culmination of you can have a leadership style and it might not be everybody's
[01:48:12] cup of tea right but you have the back it up like if you have a bunch of just very in your face abrupt leadership style then you have to back it up with top notch performance yeah if you don't
[01:48:28] have top notch performance you bet and I say a thing to me about being this in a block when she he is running that post wide opening you miss it or Cameroon and check down you should
[01:48:43] hit or you held the ball too long and scrambled now I got a hold and call because you didn't you didn't hit the route that was open don't you look at me and start yelling and I think that's
[01:48:55] what's happened in there just like this you didn't come up with these guys you haven't been what I'm gonna jib james Winston was the best option for new Orleans correct correct so
[01:49:08] here's the stat for you funny stat I just find it funny that's all you always talk about yeah it does been rid of through to 12 passes but he only had like 50 yards or whatever it was
[01:49:18] 8 for 12 73 yards you have been out of income aura against tap of the first time they played 13 catches 99 like wailu 13 catches 29 yards 33 yards man it was close I just was guessing yes that's the context just wow it did as 13 catches 13 rush 13 catches
[01:49:46] yes I think I read that right let me drop you right I'm just like thinking about it like in a context of let me double check myself real quick even a little even I remember I picked
[01:50:00] the section right there eight yards a little running back option route hit the flat um that's eight yards no it was 13 catches 33 yards that's yeah he had 11 carries for 51 yards
[01:50:19] so he rushed for more yards to the yes this cap is cleats and each of these the on solid you can do that so then as the wash it turns 28 touches right you have it's 84 yards yeah as the wash it's
[01:50:32] in turns only the commanders can bench their quarterback and then possibly have to play them because the back up has a sore hamstring and oh by the way you're just my ugly laughing
[01:50:51] these yeah they bitch they I get a sore hamstring they bitched how you know he was 6 to 22 56 yards Jacobian for set came in got the lead lost all the last second feel goal they named
[01:51:06] Jacobi the starter for the 49er game this week and then yesterday it came out that he had a sore hamstring it's saying how bite start so I only walked in y'all I'm gonna give my
[01:51:19] was the boy names that course and on but here's my question we're not gonna talk about this game because 49er is going to like you know that's don't cool Steve Austin would say walk a mud hole and
[01:51:31] stop it or stop a mud hole and walk it dry so at a beer but here's my question what's the point of bench bench in Sam Hall right now oh because you go clean house I know but I mean you
[01:51:46] lose it anyway like just a current traffic because you think you can trade them but Jacobi was set you know like he almost pulled off that win last week and then you got Dallas next week potentially
[01:51:58] sitting starters if Billy was the division or whatever like you know like yeah what is that win count does that win tell you that that guys your few no but that's my point you know just get the
[01:52:11] draft pit because right now there's a long jam you know you got those dimbers and vagus is damn cow fit as a good backup with jets oh Jesus Christ move it on just no no no no no
[01:52:23] not not the crazy way but if you're in an if you're in management you own a team you're gonna clean house no matter what the enemy's gone Rivera's gone most of your star line up's gone the coaches have gone these guys are gone you've got to replenish
[01:52:40] I mean he just let League of Pass that like four weeks ago cool so can I get a fourth and a fifth for him to send them to the jets okay so I keep him healthy I send him up in New York
[01:52:52] and then he get back up air Rogers and I have 12 draft picks next year because I'm the Washington Commanders or whatever they're gonna be next so almost you see you changed it all because
[01:53:04] when you first said that yeah I was trying to get to that point I almost had I almost had a Steven eight moment like you know like skip used to stay stuff and he used to be like yeah that was about
[01:53:15] to be me you know I'm a qualified quantifier what I was saying all right my thing is just was like because I think a lot of teams are in that that like we talked about that that was this
[01:53:28] 16 17 18 around like because we talked about like when did you start positioning your team for the draft right because you got to you got to commit physically like I got to tell these 53 guys are
[01:53:42] gonna be in a roster on Sunday I need you to I need to run hard on kickoff I need to run hard on punt return punt block whatever it is I need you to block hard I need you to do all these things
[01:53:54] hard but management knows where Chicago Carolina's probably gonna be in number one at two pick we could lose a few games it'd be five so we could get one and five when do you tell the coach
[01:54:09] just to sit just in for the rest of the year Denver we talked about Russell Wilson when did winter when did the brass call Sean Peyton then in a GM and and they said down
[01:54:22] to say listen for to that tweet that I read before we started it and so I just have to go at all assist the body so you know they just they just made the decision but how you convince
[01:54:32] you other guys to keep plans so that that's the situation you were watching I think they might play slightly better short term without rust like for a driver like they might start off okay
[01:54:45] before it settles in because I think that the players might be tired of rust just as much as Peyton might be because we've tried that conversation before you know about it. Yeah wait till Jared's
[01:54:55] in a misses you and that's slang route or he feels too far in front of you and that's safety to get it all all right so Mr. logical already told y'all he's taking care of a lot over Jacksonville
[01:55:06] I'll take it Jacksonville even though Carolina did run for 162 against Marine Bay last week so if you can I all that give me Houston over Tennessee CJ Stroud is back will Levices gonna play
[01:55:20] so we got our rookies going at it finally because you know CJ Stroud missed the match up two weeks ago where case kingdom was able to be we need a future they son of future son to the
[01:55:32] sea in the oil or jerseys because they were being any it didn't get the s they were doing that they planned that for a while yeah they had to you know I remember in article about that in September
[01:55:44] and they were like why would you just not do it at home I'm going with Houston and if this the logical is right about Carolina we might just be setting up Jacksonville Colts for the
[01:55:55] Division title next week so NFL is scripted so there you go this is the game that I struggled the hardest with what do you think it is Pittsburgh Seattle yes I want to pick for so bad I want
[01:56:10] to I'm not I'm not going anymore but I'm not doing it I'm picking up I'm taking Pittsburgh but this is pretty much an elimination game all intensive purposes the loser of this game
[01:56:21] is going to have a lot you know they're gonna have a tough road see I don't probably still get in because green bay and Minnesota play Sunday night so you know they can
[01:56:29] still but I think if Pittsburgh loses this game they're pretty much done they got Baltimore next week but they could not be done because Baltimore does the thing clinch you know it's all
[01:56:40] you know so yeah but I'm going with Seattle is DK Mech has got to play you know apparently he's injured so we'll have to see Jackson Smith and Jim McIff has just been to see one inch shorter
[01:56:52] in 10 pounds lighter than DK Mech has he's listed on Wickedow no but they said Rudolph gets to start again so you know we'll see what happens I'm going with we're gonna agree we're fine no because I say it you get me the chargers
[01:57:17] none of that we're yeah yeah yeah I got that I thought I thought see if we we own board in this one because Denver Denver is such a laughing stock we listen to Ryan Clark's
[01:57:34] solidically on which McAulay earlier yeah he had the right we ran into the right one he's a he ran to the right one it's very similar to what I said about um
[01:57:45] Sean Payton last week but I think we might have been a greatest one this one you ready all right I got Cincinnati being Kansas City no we don't agree we don't agree you know but
[01:57:59] stuff that did surprise me when I was looking at this game so the first question that I asked myself before I even looked at any stats or anything I said kid Kansas City really moves to an
[01:58:10] Arrowett Arrowhead to a backup quarterback basically or like an experience quarterback and then as I started searching I said these are four and four and all of this season or uh there you
[01:58:22] lost backup back to these lost he was eight note of rookies that guy snapped yeah uh something like back to back was I had to have a loss of both low-gave at home you know so uh normal Kansas City
[01:58:40] it's it's winning time if you know what it's winning time you know Jay that my concepts like action oh no I just didn't spot the fatigue doing a half yard I don't know it's already
[01:58:52] I don't know if Cincinnati will be able to move the ball effectively against Kansas City you don't think it'll be tiresome when Kansas City offense can't move the ball at all
[01:59:02] at all at all we watched them against the Raiders they could not effectively move the ball at all so then when they needed the defense to like make a stop literally Oakland
[01:59:16] I get you saying Oakland because they're playing so Oakland last night very old school the last week they did not complete a pass for the last three quarters of the game correct
[01:59:28] you knew they were going to run it because running the ball at the end of the game as the most effective way to keep the clock going and keep patching all the way to no Josh jacos they ran the ball
[01:59:43] for like 65 yards and that drive yeah the mirror was like you're white 42 rush is a 145 yards and that was the only option you knew that was it and I know Spaggs is a great defense of coordinator
[02:00:00] but a lot of a lot of any relationship you have is hand in hand you could be a good husband but you have to have a good wife that supports you and you have to be a good husband or her to support
[02:00:14] her it's not a matter like you know I'm good at this she's good at this we go make it work like now like it has to be like this this measure is supporting the middle
[02:00:24] I was going out of Kansas City offense supports the defense the way that you know they needed to be because it's like listen they use that phrase when the the when the pass versus
[02:00:38] can pin their ears back that was happening a lot of times when the wheel was with their run when they were going 14 zero or the greatest show on turf and it was like we know you can't
[02:00:49] run the ball so now the defense can call pin their ears back that's the balance is like I'm gonna get you turnovers because you got us a double digit lead now we're gonna go out there
[02:01:03] and hunt the Kansas City cheese haven't done anything offensively at least a wire receiver core they have an operator as if they understand the magnitude of being in the right spot so not necessarily you can catch the ball because this is some of self-macancity wires here
[02:01:23] was the last like seven eight weeks they all get up fucking showboarding like sky more getting up and dropping a ball could there is Tony and all that's like dog this dude is running for his life
[02:01:37] so you can get open because you didn't run the route at first to beat the guy in your man to man coverage there's no help there's no double teams Travis Kelsey has six dudes on him
[02:01:48] the referee there the coach there cheerly does out there guard Travis Kelsey he's never open these dudes getting balls hitting them in a face mask like pass the home through a past that
[02:02:01] would do to do his hands and it was a great defense that the fenders hand was here the ball was here the fenders hand here balls here and he dropped it I have zero faith in Kansas City
[02:02:16] I'm a go-hand call it 27 17 since a day here's something for you if I'm being honest they just know how to play us oh first of all quote if I'm dude honest they just know how to play
[02:02:30] us they know the leverage they know what splits we're in they just know what we're going to do in certain moments they throw little double doubles at us to stop the two best players on the outside
[02:02:40] and that's all they do it's not really like they've got a jail and Ramsay on your squad and quote that is one Jamar Chase talking about Kansas City secondary yeah he might not even play
[02:02:53] this week here first of all you know it's you know but I don't know man like I'm just one of the end was your last week I'm just I'm just going to trust Andy Reed and play off some coming up
[02:03:06] I think I think I just think Cincinnati's fun is over that's all yeah but like you could think that but what like realistically what have you seen from cheese wire receivers or running back
[02:03:18] core or just skill position players offensively well I see that's it like the ready back court he just don't give up the ball enough really they give the ball to protect all the time
[02:03:29] he gets no real I'm not you're also carry if that not enough they don't give it to all the would you bet your mortgage on the cheese winning no okay I bet my rent money that I'd pay here
[02:03:47] all right well you have fun with that let me know how it is now won't do it because maybe it just came yeah it's crazy I'm taking the eagles to be there a former Defensive Fort Data
[02:03:59] you know Jonathan again exciting coaching NFL that's right the most interesting man in the world they don't need to blood boiling right here today yeah so Dallas does slip up against the Troy you know Philadelphia can put a weighted division I don't think Arizona's gonna stop a bit
[02:04:18] delay and you know so just give me Philly if it finally lasts but not least Mr. Lawthicals favorite back up quarterback Jaren Hall you know getting the start for the Vikings after see Nick Muller is
[02:04:33] the only quarterback in NFL history that's probably thrown for 411 yards it got bitch the next week you talk about Jerry the kiff I'll be the why you yeah yeah he started they bitch Nick Muller's
[02:04:49] TJ Hawkins and his out yes ACL PCL CL something like that yeah we don't know if Jordan Addison's gonna play or not you know they will have the jet we do know that
[02:05:03] Jai your Alexander is not gonna play this he'll be serving his one game stupidest suspicion I have heard in my life keep in mind a kicker from the giant's got suspended for one game for
[02:05:15] the message violence so for a guy this has been a fun game for going out as a team captain and just looking for some situations and context is important but I don't know maybe it was the post game
[02:05:28] maybe it was the press conference afterwards I didn't even know that was a thing I didn't think I didn't even know they named them like it was like that official it's like one of those it's like
[02:05:38] a very air force kind of really like they would have air force kind of rule and it was like well you know it's just conditions of employment is like is that necessary though?
[02:05:47] Well like I get that chicken right down this rule he could type it on the argument out but like is it necessary yeah so you know and then he did he had the nerve so he wanted to
[02:05:57] toss you know because he called tails he wanted because he had no idea what he was doing did he had the nerve to be like yo we want to give the defense we need the nerve right yeah like we defer but he he might be that quintessential
[02:06:15] jock he just went to school to play football it was like we we watched the interview and I'm like I'm not gonna knock somebody for like there you know the ax and what the case
[02:06:25] may be right but just the way he puts synthesis together is like oh either you are high you're not bright oh you don't care it like oh oh it coming to me yeah I was like what is he talking
[02:06:39] about it just felt like I don't know if Calamari stands in front of the microphones and and of course anyway well you know the story of this game is for me as Brian Flores and what
[02:06:53] can he scheme up against Jordan love because earlier this season I was making a lot of fun of Jordan love because he was just throwing the picks and just eating breakfast with the ball yeah his
[02:07:05] last let's see what is it here you know his last five out of his last six games he's throwing at least two touchdowns with no interceptions so you know I got his numbers here for the it
[02:07:19] is it already done Jordan love I got 35 hundred yards passion 27 touchdowns 11 picks those numbers are better than my homes there's numbers better than Lamar Jackson the size of the picks yeah he's got eight more passing touchdowns than Lamar Jackson you know so I don't know
[02:07:36] think that what you will but you know the goals are the picks for this week up picking green bay you picking green bay up picking green bay just because I think Minnesota is just kind of in
[02:07:46] the shambles I hope they keep their team together I don't know if Kirk Cousins is going to do I don't know if he's going to take the full next season off the recover right they can check
[02:07:54] and then let them figure out the quarterback position I think Brian Flores I wish he was in position to job but the fact that he's a defensive coach I don't know if he's turned around
[02:08:06] this deep and see if I could look he might get a look to be a defensive coordinator because the offensive coordinator in LA being the Rams gets a job and I don't know what that
[02:08:18] person is I'm just saying like oh you know who you know who the Rams the pit support data is no offensive the Rams also I don't know if you said he does a coordinator is a grand horse right
[02:08:28] yeah yeah I thought it landed should have hired him he's not just one of the examples of that that interim coach I'm not sure if I can recall off the top of my head maybe you can
[02:08:39] we're over two hours now you just kind of think about it in top yet I don't recall many interim coaches even just do that getting hired I do that what is that Michael Flore is the
[02:08:53] Rams offensive coordinator Matt's little brother yeah I do that so I can see him getting the the chargers and then bringing it in Flore as to be the coordinator I just don't see
[02:09:08] Flore as getting a head coaching job and bringing it back to you because of the year or you think like that's done for I just think that your defense has to be it's it's the same thing
[02:09:18] we talk about the MVP if you're not a quarterback you gotta have like some kind of series of stats that is this all world right like your team has to be first in sacks second or third
[02:09:31] internal or and you have to have not even raised 2000 come back players and the 15 and the people can it end defensive player to year can it on your defense and none of those people were
[02:09:46] even in consideration what you took over I think that's how going forward you're going to be defensive head coach that gets a defensive coach that gets a head coaching position because I can look at okay Michael Clark the cause of plays and Dallas Mike McDaniel's calls him in
[02:10:05] Miami the floor the floor call them and Green Bay I'm trying to think of a coach that we know like Adlanis offensive coordinator at but also Smith's still calls the plays I'm trying
[02:10:21] the enemy calls the plays so maybe he gets a look but he's already kind of had like kind of gone through the ringer with the head coaching interviews right I think it might not it might be tough for him maybe the guy who's an offensive coordinator at envy
[02:10:43] I'm not sure is not necessarily striking the coach but because gardener mentioned he was has such a great season it might be due to a collective team oh man what we got Jim Bob Cooter
[02:11:03] which one is that he's back for the cult who was he in coordinator for before I remember that name Jim Bob Cooter he was with uh uh draw the black right now that's the way I had a conversation about it
[02:11:18] because I remember that name being so like just kind of prominent conversation yeah he uh uh I know he was with Billy so he's been with Stike in for a minute okay he was with Jacksonville
[02:11:31] I believe last year not as the office coordinator okay here we go I got another I got a name for you at least up his team and that's what I remember him from with Matt Stafford yeah Tampa Bay offensive
[02:11:47] oh yes it's first year this is the first year as the office coordinator the way he's turned Baker Mayfield around I could see him being a proud to get getting the Washington job with a
[02:12:02] charges job yeah remember bringing him up I knew what he really was I'm just trying to think of yeah why remember we were talking about him before the season started that was why we had Tampa
[02:12:12] that was one of the reasons why we had Tampa so we're looking at the coordinator yeah maybe by leftridge is out there still kind of reading film and then maybe he can get back in
[02:12:21] a race I think he's probably still taking a Jacksonville job yeah especially with his history there you know like uh it wouldn't work you didn't like the GM but the GM was that bad he would have got fire
[02:12:32] probably he would have got fire before you if you decide about your deal five year 80 million they get rid of the GM for the year yeah that's what I was wondering hopefully he has to screw
[02:12:40] himself from getting another job down the line outside of the board they don't want to just talk into the right people because sometimes man listen black dude in America I get it
[02:12:51] it's a tough world for some times but you don't let that shit hold you back right Carlos Miller from 85 South East at a quote and I want to make sure I get it right I've been drinking a little bit
[02:13:03] Eddie said be who you are until it stops you from being who you want to be oh I like that and I'm and I married that with this quote that or a statement that Kat Williams gave
[02:13:18] he's talking Larry King and Larry King was doing like these five these rapid fire questions and Larry King asked Kat Williams was the worst advice you ever received and his response was don't change and I was like that's deep so when I heard so I've heard that
[02:13:39] I heard that I'm like a wilder girl and I was like that's that's dope so then when I heard this day the day is like be the person who you be the person who you are until it stops you if
[02:13:48] me who you want to be right it's like I get it you can rest on your to nasty anger in your position but it's like is this hindering me now like and like have I
[02:14:01] gotten to the point where like a Kanye West kind of situation Kanye West is like I can let this dream to kill this kid myself was seen who use my arrogance has a scene to power my dreams
[02:14:12] yes but is it now hindering you from being able to be you know you know have self-awareness and be reflective because you're simply still rolling with this arrogant scene so I think
[02:14:28] or if if if if by left we're just one of those guys that's kind of looked at it like if he's looking around looking at the landscape like us is like I don't think there's a lot of
[02:14:37] guys up there calling great games I've watched a lot of third and two's and they go five wide every team no matter the talent level of quarterback. Mitchell Tribisky should not be throwing
[02:14:51] third and two or fourth and two rounds five wide he needs a tight end and a run it back in everyone those situations when this crunch time yeah you can see the belief that they go
