1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000
From the deep inside the bowels of the city market in Kansas City, Missouri downtown property

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:14,000
to the banks of the beautiful crystal blue waters of the Missouri River

3
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:25,000
it is the original two, Topher and Mark, given the 2024 football predictions for the season.

4
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,000
You thought they were done, didn't you?

5
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,000
Hehehehe

6
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Harambe loved talking sports. Harambe doesn't talk sports anymore.

7
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,000
Why not? Because Harambe's dead.

8
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Harambe died because some idiot could not watch their children properly while they were on the phone.

9
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:54,000
They shot him. Senselessly murdered. Harambe does not talk sports anymore.

10
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,000
Sorry Harambe.

11
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,000
I'll probably have to adjust the gain on the fly as we go.

12
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,000
That's what we always do, isn't it?

13
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000
I've got gain here and I've got gain there.

14
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:11,000
You know, I've got audio tonic at home and I notice you have Audacity.

15
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:15,000
On the laptop. On the desktop I've got audio tonic.

16
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Okay, yeah. There's slight differences in it, I've noticed.

17
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,000
Yeah.

18
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,000
Which one do you find easier?

19
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,000
I've gotten more used to the audio tonic.

20
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,000
Me too. I thought it was easier to operate and more features.

21
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,000
Yeah, yeah.

22
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,000
So, okay. Yeah, that was rebuilt for just Windows, I believe, wasn't it?

23
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,000
I think so.

24
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,000
As they say, there's a pretty steep learning curve on it.

25
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,000
You know, you can get started pretty easily right away.

26
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:46,000
But to really use a lot of the stuff, you've got to dive in and learn and do the tutorials.

27
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,000
Believe me. I just realized that you can accent your words

28
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,000
by just highlighting them.

29
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,000
You can double, triple, quadruple them if you want

30
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,000
by just highlighting and hitting a feature on the effects.

31
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,000
Isn't that cool?

32
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,000
Wow.

33
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,000
Yeah. There's all kinds of tricks like that.

34
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,000
Instead of doing it the old fashioned way and taking like four of the same bit

35
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:16,000
and then, you know, erasing three quarters of it and moving it just a little over so it echoes.

36
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,000
You can do that right there. It takes about 10 seconds at the most.

37
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:25,000
Yeah, yeah. I tend to look at any kind of effects to be, you know, for the whole sound file,

38
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,000
the whole global thing.

39
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:27,000
No, me too. I was like that too.

40
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,000
So, yeah, just doing it for a little bit here and there, that makes perfect sense.

41
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:31,000
You think about it.

42
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Yeah. You know what? And just one day I thought, you know what? I bet you could do this.

43
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,000
And I did it. I'm like, shit, you can do this.

44
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:43,000
So, anyhow, yeah, I'm still learning. I don't know shit about it, I mean, really honestly.

45
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:48,000
So, all right. Well, should we go over our picks?

46
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,000
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. This isn't going to be pretty.

47
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,000
No, it isn't.

48
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,000
Oh my God. We got the ass paddling.

49
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Yeah, I think so. Yeah, there are a couple of games that's like, oh man, did I do wrong there.

50
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,000
We'll get to it.

51
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,000
Yeah, we will. Anyhow, this is Mark and Topher and we're doing our NFL show.

52
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:14,000
And we're out in front of the city market. You're not going to hear this probably till tonight or tomorrow.

53
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:19,000
So, I'd tell you to come down and join us. But, well, you'll come down here and we won't be here.

54
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,000
Yeah. Should we tell them we're trying out a brand new microphone?

55
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,000
Yes. Yeah.

56
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,000
All right.

57
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,000
All right. So, I think it sounds better in our earphones. I mean.

58
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Yeah. Yeah. So far I'm really digging it.

59
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:36,000
Yeah, me too. And it actually looks really kind of like more professional.

60
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,000
It does. The other mic was cool and retro looking. It looked like something from the 50s.

61
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,000
Which I love. But this is cool too.

62
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:48,000
Yeah. Yeah. It's more designed to be an indoor mic, I'm sure. So, yeah.

63
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Well, but it was a good opportunity to try it out.

64
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Yeah. So, that's cool.

65
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:54,000
Yeah.

66
00:03:54,000 --> 00:04:02,000
All right. Well, the first game, of course, that we picked and the first game on the docket last week was Ravens versus the Chiefs.

67
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,000
We're both for the Chiefs.

68
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:09,000
I wasn't very good on the points on that one, I know.

69
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,000
You had 34 to 31.

70
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,000
Yeah.

71
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:21,000
And I had 27 to 17. So, okay. First off, did you take any key notes from the game? What did you think?

72
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:30,000
I think the defense is really good still. There's been some changes there. We lost Willie Gay and Snead.

73
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,000
I can't remember Snead's first name off the bat.

74
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:39,000
Ligerius. Ligerius, that's it. But I think we're going to be okay without them.

75
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,000
Rasheer Rice had a really good game.

76
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,000
Yes.

77
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,000
And let's see. Somebody else.

78
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,000
Worthy.

79
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:47,000
Yes.

80
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,000
Worthy looked phenomenal.

81
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Worthy looked good. He looks like he's going to be everything they need him to be this season.

82
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,000
Yeah. Schuster and Brown too, if they're all healthy.

83
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,000
Yeah. Yeah.

84
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,000
Go ahead. Tell yours that I'm going to.

85
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Defense, as I said, still looks pretty solid. The offense, some of the question marks I had seem like they've got the right people and it's just going to get better from here.

86
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:21,000
So, I was pretty encouraged by what I saw from the Chiefs. You know, getting behind and coming back. I'm used to that by now.

87
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,000
Yes. Yeah.

88
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,000
That's not the thing to panic about that it used to be.

89
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:31,000
Yes. Any more I don't worry about. I'm like, okay, this is what's supposed to happen.

90
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Exactly.

91
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:43,000
As far as the Ravens go, they look like a pretty decent team. I don't think they ran very well.

92
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,000
No, they did not like I thought they were going to.

93
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:54,000
Yeah, it seemed like they were counting on Lamar Jackson to be their running game two, which long term is not a viable solution.

94
00:05:54,000 --> 00:06:04,000
The especially the older quarterback gets. Well, I said this last podcast. He is an accident waiting to happen. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. One one bad hit.

95
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:11,000
One twisted knee away from wrecking their whole season. And it's it's been done before there too.

96
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:24,000
So, I'm sure Baltimore hated taking the loss. And oh, my God, I saw the success of penalties for illegal formation for the what the Ravens left.

97
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:29,000
You sent me a text about that. Yes. You know, he was lining up too far back.

98
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,000
He was and he was told to do it and he didn't. And he was pretty good for a while.

99
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:45,000
But the Chiefs right tackle, Jawan Taylor, 74. He got away with at least three false starts. I know he flinches. Yeah. Yes, I know.

100
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:52,000
He picks up that back leg. He puts a leg behind him and he picks it up and leans back too early. Yes.

101
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:56,000
And he got called once, but he didn't get called three times.

102
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:02,000
So any Baltimore Ravens fan that wants to say the fix is in and it was unfair. I feel you. It was not fair.

103
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,000
The Chiefs got away with things they shouldn't have gotten away with. Yeah.

104
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:12,000
Well, I mean, OK, here I can play a counter here. There should have been another roughing the passer call in there.

105
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:21,000
Yes. That late hit out of bounds was blatant and actually shouldn't have never happened. He was trying to hurt my homes.

106
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:26,000
Yeah. And that's the only thing you think is, was that a makeup call to make up for something the refs did?

107
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:35,000
That's where I got. Yeah. But to do it on a play that could physically damage the star quarterback,

108
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:41,000
that is the darling of the league, that's an odd place to pick to do a makeup and non call.

109
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:48,000
Yes. And also, don't you think they have a vested interest in the game being a nut tugger? True. Yeah.

110
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,000
This is the influence of the games we've been talking about, in my opinion. Yeah.

111
00:07:52,000 --> 00:08:03,000
I mean, two big benefits to having a close fought game is one, people watching aren't going to quit and two,

112
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:08,000
people are going to keep placing bets. Yes. Because it's going to go back and forth. It's still tight.

113
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:15,000
People are going to keep betting, keep betting, keep betting. And those are the two things the NFL wants, viewers and bettors.

114
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:20,000
People are not going to abandon the game. Yeah. If it's like 30 to nothing or 30 to five or whatever.

115
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Yeah. Even the bookies are getting out of that one. Yeah. Yeah. They're going to say, oh, hey, crime scene CSI is on, you know.

116
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:33,000
Whatever. Yeah. Yeah. Unless you live in Kansas City or Baltimore, you're exiting that game. Yeah.

117
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,000
It's like, oh, this is a stinker. Yeah. And if you're not watching, you're not betting on it.

118
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:42,000
Kind of like that game last night. I watched all of it just because I felt like I needed to.

119
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:53,000
But man, if we weren't doing this podcast, I would have liked to watch. I would have went to the record section of my of my outfit there,

120
00:08:53,000 --> 00:09:01,000
my fire stick. And I would have went to Ryan Seacrest's first appearance on Wheel of Fortune.

121
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:07,000
By the way, he's not much better than Tom Brady. But in my opinion. Yeah.

122
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:15,000
Hey, how go? Yeah, I was looking forward to watching the Broncos and Seahawks game, but they decided not to air it in the Casey area unless you paid to stream it.

123
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:20,000
Yes. And they're doing that on purpose. They know that we have an interest in the Western Division. Right. And how they do.

124
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:29,000
Yeah. They they they figure out what we want and then they take it away and put it behind a paywall to see if we're willing to pay for it.

125
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:38,000
I wasn't. No, me neither. You know, they're required to give us the Chiefs game.

126
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:43,000
But yeah, they'll they'll they'll take they'll figure out what we want and use it against us.

127
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:50,000
Yes, they will. You're right. Yeah. And that's the other thing is they're talking about going to an 18 game season.

128
00:09:50,000 --> 00:10:01,000
I believe it will happen. And that's taking away another preseason game. Oh, wow. OK. I can see that trading preseason for regular season.

129
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:09,000
At what point, though, is it going to be necessary to have a relief quarterback that we have relief pitchers?

130
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:18,000
Because expecting one quarterback to go full tilt for 18 games in 19 weeks, that's a lot to ask.

131
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:24,000
Carson Wentz, I think, is that guy for Kansas City.

132
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:29,000
I think that he had a good career. He got injured, got a little bit upside down, had some bad luck.

133
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:36,000
And I think that if anyone's going to save him, it's Coach Reed. So he can be a top tier quarterback.

134
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:45,000
So what's that advantage? That advantage is if Mahone needs a break and we're up, I don't know, 27 to 3,

135
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,000
you can throw him in there and comfortably know that he's not going to screw the game up.

136
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:56,000
And I think the NFL wants to normalize doing that. Yes. And they're going to try to force the issue by having so many freaking games.

137
00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:03,000
Yes. Because think about it. A team will have one good quarterback and one just total scrub. Yes. For someone who's over the hill.

138
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:11,000
Yeah, an ass bag that used to play. Yeah. And so the quarterback gets hurt and suddenly the game is a dud and everyone fails.

139
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:19,000
The NFL doesn't like that. No, no, no. The NFL wants you to have a good backup quarterback that can keep the game going and keep the game exciting.

140
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:25,000
And I think the teams that start doing that and then start putting them in for like the whole fourth quarter and, you know,

141
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:31,000
sorry about your stats, Mahomes, but we're looking out for your health and the team's health. Well, that will happen.

142
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:38,000
Yeah, it will happen. I think that's going to have to be the new normal is your starter plays three quarters.

143
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:43,000
If you're comfortably ahead, they're done. And I've got a little bit deeper theory than that.

144
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,000
And then we can go back to the first game, you know, that you're talking about. OK.

145
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:55,000
An 18 game season is going to push the mini camp back another couple of weeks, right? True.

146
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,000
I'm pretty sure they're going to have to because of that. Yeah, you're going to have to.

147
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:06,000
You know, the benefit you used to get from that third preseason game is now going to have to come from mini camps.

148
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:11,000
That aligns with right when basketball season ends. Perfect. Perfect. Yeah.

149
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:17,000
You know, teams want to be relevant all season long. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, all year long, not just in the season.

150
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:23,000
And this is going to really hurt baseball's bottom feeders because who's going to watch a game between?

151
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:29,000
I don't even know who the bottom feeders are. Chicago, the White Sox against.

152
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:37,000
I don't know who else is a bottom feeder. Yeah. You know, you're looking at like a team that won 25 games, maybe the White Sox against.

153
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,000
You put them against a team that won 40 games. No one's watching that.

154
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:46,000
I mean, even with the Royals doing so good and right now, if it ended today, they'd be in the playoffs.

155
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:52,000
The Chiefs still get the first run. Yeah. I mean, just practicing, they get the first run. Yeah.

156
00:12:52,000 --> 00:13:01,000
So anyhow, and when you think about it, deep into the NFL season, you're going to start hearing stuff about basketball and baseball.

157
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:06,000
Yes. Big time because the audience is there watching football.

158
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:12,000
So that's when you remind them about the other sports. NFL should be doing that, too.

159
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:18,000
In what? May and June, when the NBA playoffs are going on. Yes.

160
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:28,000
Have tons of important stuff going on at many camps and OTAs and stuff that you can jump in during the NBA playoffs and say, oh, by the way, here in Vikings, many camp.

161
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:33,000
This happened. Yes. It's perfect. Yeah. Why not?

162
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:43,000
Yeah. I mean, that's why you take someone like Mahone, so prolific and loved in Kansas City and actually all over, and you make him an investor in the Royals.

163
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:50,000
Yeah. Great idea. Really good. Now they just need Taylor and Kelsey to invest in them. Yeah.

164
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:57,000
Let's see what Royals player can start getting involved with some attractive pop star. Yeah.

165
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:08,000
And who would that pop star be? Yeah. Tatey at Kauffman Stadium a couple of times. They're sold out the rest of the year. I'm surprised they haven't done that.

166
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:16,000
Now, let's see. Salvador Perez starts dating Megan the stallion. How's that? There we go.

167
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:25,000
And she shows up at the stadium and people look at her like, all right, cool. We got our own version of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey.

168
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:31,000
You never know. This might be the template for for future. Well, it's such a copycat league. Yeah.

169
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:39,000
I think it's yeah, I think it's pretty much a given that it worked for Kansas City. It made them not only national, but global news. Yeah.

170
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:50,000
And the other teams are like drool. Sign me up, man. Yeah. It's got to be the right couple, though, because Tony Romo and Carrie Underwood dated and nobody gave a shit.

171
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:59,000
There was a little bit of a hubbub when he was dating Jessica Simpson. I remember seeing her up in the players box on the owner's box or whatever.

172
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:05,000
But she was just boring as hell. I mean, you go to look at Taylor during the game, the camera goes to her.

173
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:09,000
She's jumping around. People are yelling and screaming when they showed Jessica Simpson.

174
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:14,000
She was sitting there, obviously, not know what's going on. Yeah.

175
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:20,000
Really know what football was all about. But she was just kind of being there because it was good publicity.

176
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:26,000
Well, I believe everything they say about Taylor Swift being really smart. I believe that. I mean, too. Yeah.

177
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:35,000
I totally believe that. And also, another thing is, is they said she designed some plays that they're going to do. Cool.

178
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:39,000
Isn't that interesting that she could pick up on it that quick?

179
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:48,000
You know, 15 years ago, people or 20 years ago, people would have screamed and howled about what does some woman know about football and all this kind of crap.

180
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:57,000
But now it's something that is just the idea is entertained with an open mind. Yeah. Yeah, it is.

181
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:04,000
And anyhow, OK, go ahead about the game there before we really get sidetracked like we always do.

182
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:10,000
So we were still talking about the Chiefs and the Ravens. Yes. Yeah.

183
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:19,000
Either team could have won that. I was pretty sure the Chiefs were going to be able to pull it out, you know, zero head first game of the season, just unveiled the banner.

184
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:25,000
It's like and you did last year against the Lions. You let them come in and spank you. I think that was a big motivator.

185
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:31,000
Yeah, they're like, this is not going to happen again. Booms is on the sideline. Remember last year. Remember last year. I'm sure he was.

186
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:38,000
I'm sure he posted the pictures of the scoreboard. Yeah. At the end of that game. I'm sure he did.

187
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:43,000
Good idea to be reminded. But it was it was a fun and exciting game.

188
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:47,000
I remember several times having to calm myself down and relax myself.

189
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:55,000
Like this is an exciting, intense moment, but there's no reason for me to be hyperventilating on the sofa.

190
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:59,000
Yeah. Yes. Let the players play. Just watch. I agree.

191
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:07,000
It did kind of get me caught up and really emotionally invested in the game, which for me usually doesn't happen.

192
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:13,000
I usually take a lot more pragmatic approach. I tried to, but I do both.

193
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:17,000
I mean, I can't help it. I waffle back and forth. Yeah. And so.

194
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:23,000
OK, so that's your analysis. You got anything else? I think that's all I got. OK.

195
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:27,000
All right. You can say that'll do pig.

196
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:33,000
Charlotte's Web, wasn't that it? The guy said that'll do pig. Yes. Yep.

197
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:37,000
And you know, realize, I think I forgot the horn. No, I don't think I did.

198
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:42,000
OK, I got the worst, like the 30 worst quotes ever by a commentator.

199
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:50,000
Oh, gosh. That's going to be fun. OK. So first off, I would like to say that the Chiefs are the superior team.

200
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:55,000
Yeah, you can tell they're much better. They're head and tail above the Ravens.

201
00:17:55,000 --> 00:18:01,000
They should have put that game away, but they didn't.

202
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:08,000
Again, we had not as bad, but we had issues of us shooting ourselves in our foot.

203
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:14,000
We had some senseless penalties. It called some big plays back. Yeah.

204
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,000
Will that get better during the season? I think so. Yeah.

205
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:23,000
That's that's a discipline and focus kind of thing.

206
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,000
This team's good at that. Yeah.

207
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:31,000
Still, the play that I like the best, he didn't gain anything. He didn't gain anything.

208
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:38,000
He would have been tackled seven yards back, but he fought and pushed his way to line the scrimmage. Yeah.

209
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,000
I mean, that was just a play is a blown play. They knew he was coming.

210
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,000
I think I remember that they said, you know, he gets back to the line of scrimmage.

211
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:49,000
It doesn't count as a sack. It counts as a run for no gain.

212
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,000
He was damn determined that he was going to make it back to line of scrimmage.

213
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:58,000
And he did. That's the kind of guy we need there in the fullback position or whatever it is now.

214
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,000
Oh, OK. Stars to see. I was thinking about my home.

215
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,000
There's one where my home's had to fight. Oh, my home's did too. Yeah.

216
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,000
But that's my home's. I mean, yeah. But I miss that.

217
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,000
But yeah, Carson Steele, definitely. He's got that.

218
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:13,000
Don't quit that you saw in like Mike Allstott. Yes.

219
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:17,000
John, not who else? John Riggins. That's John Riggins. Yeah.

220
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:24,000
He's old school. There's some others. Just the big, tough, strong running backs.

221
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,000
Yeah, a guy that's just going to power his way through there.

222
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:31,000
LaDaney and Tomlinson. That's who I was trying to think. Yeah, Tomlinson's a good one. Yeah.

223
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:35,000
We've been missing that in the NFL for quite a while.

224
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:45,000
And so the other thing I'd like to go on is Kelsey. He is selfless.

225
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,000
He was a decoy most of the game and he was happy with that.

226
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:55,000
Yeah, I'm really happy to see the Chiefs taking advantage of that.

227
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:59,000
He still has a phenomenal amount of talent.

228
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:03,000
And so now is the time to use him as a decoy if you've got other talent.

229
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:09,000
And this also helps prolong his career. It's just a great idea all day around.

230
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:13,000
They always have to account for him, usually with a couple of people.

231
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:18,000
And he's good with that because he knows that Watson or someone in the middle is going to catch that ball.

232
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:23,000
Maybe Schuster. Someone in the middle is going to catch that ball while people are after him.

233
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:28,000
And if they go, all right, well, they're hitting the other ones, then they're going to go after them and he's going to kill them.

234
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,000
And he knows this and he's good. Yeah.

235
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:38,000
Having him is like always being in a four wide receiver set. Yes, exactly. He's that good. He is.

236
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:46,000
Because you got your slot receiver, you're running back and then usually you have two more receivers in the tight end.

237
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:52,000
Kelsey is a fourth wide receiver or he can be the awesome lead blocker.

238
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,000
And it's just having that kind of tight end. A lot of teams have keyed on that.

239
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:01,000
It's like, yeah, we need a tight end like that. Some teams have different guys.

240
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,000
This guy's are receiving tight end. This guy's are blocking tight end.

241
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:09,000
But when you have one that can do both like Kelsey or Kittle. Yeah, yeah.

242
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,000
Kittle is another good example. Yeah.

243
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:19,000
Even though he didn't have his best game in the Super Bowl. Yeah.

244
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:27,000
Yeah, you know that. And another thing that you can do with Kelsey, too, and I've seen this done before and I know you have too, is he could throw the ball.

245
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,000
Oh, yeah. On a gimmick play. I tend to forget that. But yeah, he can throw it.

246
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:36,000
He's also been used as a running back on a gimmick play. That guy can do about anything. Yeah.

247
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:44,000
So you utilize him, but you only do the cute stuff as practice run for the postseason. Yeah.

248
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:49,000
The cute stuff is just seeing if they can get away with it. Yeah.

249
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:55,000
And then later on, you see him do that to perfection or the backwards pass.

250
00:21:55,000 --> 00:22:01,000
Well, Mahomes poo-pooed that off. Yeah. But you tell me that they don't have that in the back of their mind. They can do that.

251
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:06,000
Yeah, I didn't buy it. That it was just spur of the moment thought of it. No.

252
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:12,000
I think he said that on purpose to protect it. It's going to go, oh, yeah, yeah. I was mad at him. And I think it was predetermined.

253
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:16,000
Yeah, protecting trade secrets. Yes.

254
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:20,000
Then I'm going to go into another example about how Kelsey is selfless.

255
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:26,000
Last year, he could have had a thousand yard season and hit the record books on the last game.

256
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,000
He said, no, I'm sending it out. The object is to win the Super Bowl. Yeah.

257
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:34,000
And he sat it out, did not get a thousand yard season because of it.

258
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:41,000
And that right there told me he is a total team player and he is he is dedicated to winning. Yeah.

259
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:46,000
That is the kind of guy you want on your team. And we have him on our team and he's not going anywhere.

260
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,000
And that is another great reason why he's not going anywhere.

261
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:58,000
You can name a lot of wide receivers or tight ends and go, no, no, I'm going to go get my thousand yards and I'll be back in because quarterbacks to quarterbacks to.

262
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:03,000
Yeah. And you read gave them a choice. He said, if you want to go get your record, do it.

263
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:11,000
But if you don't, and you rather concentrate on winning in the playoffs, that's fine, too.

264
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:18,000
I think every one that was going for some sort of a significant margin starter. Yeah. Sat.

265
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:25,000
I can understand if there's like a financial incentive in your contract that you're trying to hit that was a Chris Jones bonus.

266
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:30,000
Yeah. Like Chris Jones. Yeah. And you know, he stayed in long enough to trigger that bonus and then he was out. Yes.

267
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:35,000
And I get that. I get. Oh, I do, too. And they're trying to sign him to a long term deal.

268
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:42,000
So that was essential in letting him do that because that shows like, hey, we love what you do for us. So we're going to let you try to do this.

269
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,000
Yeah. And he got the sack and then he went out. No problems.

270
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:53,000
That thing right there makes sure that Chris Jones did sign the contract and he wants to be in Kansas City.

271
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:58,000
And I mean, he did anyhow. But that right there gives him just more love for us.

272
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:04,000
He's like, you know what? Coach Reed said, go ahead, get your money, you know, and other players look at that and say, hey,

273
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:08,000
that's a good team to go play for. I might look at them in free agency. Absolutely.

274
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:13,000
And that's how come teams take less money to come here.

275
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:18,000
That's how the Niners built their dynasty in the what was it, 80s and early 90s. Yes.

276
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:22,000
Is they spent money on the players. They pampered their players.

277
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:27,000
They treated their players like the money earners they were. Yes.

278
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,000
They didn't treat them like a business or whatever or an expendable tool.

279
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,000
It's like, no, you guys are the reason everybody pays to watch and gives us all our money.

280
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,000
So we're going to treat you well. Yeah.

281
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:41,000
And D Bartolo was the guy who owned the Niners at the time.

282
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:46,000
And he was forced out due to gambling. Yes. The gambling scandal.

283
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:53,000
But if he had stuck around and kept spending and spending money on the team like that, it would have been the wind inside.

284
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:58,000
We would be talking about the Niners' dynasty ahead of there was something else going on with it.

285
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,000
Oh, yeah, you're right. There was something else with the D Bartolos.

286
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,000
I can't think of what it was. There's another scandal. Big fight with his sister.

287
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,000
Well, that was part. But there was something more than that.

288
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,000
I'll have to look it up because I know you're right. There was something else.

289
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:21,000
There was something else, too. And then finally, it's like the league just looking at him going, you're making us a crap ton of money, but you got to go. Yes.

290
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:31,000
And also, I don't know if George Seifert was a great replacement for Walsh, who basically he stepped out. He retired. Yeah.

291
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:37,000
Seifert did. He did win one. He won a Super Bowl with Young with Steve Young.

292
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:43,000
But I don't think he was the guy to carry on the tradition. I think it was lost after that.

293
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:50,000
Yeah. Seifert was the guy who was going to help you coast to another championship while the team slowly fell apart.

294
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:55,000
But he wasn't going to be able to do anything about it. No, no, that was it. And he was kind of put in there to be fired, really.

295
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:02,000
Yeah, I think ownership said we can win one more Super Bowl with somebody in there who just won't screw it up. Yeah.

296
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:08,000
So they put Seifert in. Yeah. And then after that, Steve Young's career was still good, but not the same after they won.

297
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,000
I don't know what the deal was. He just never to me. He never looked the same.

298
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:18,000
He looked like his heart really wasn't in it anymore. He wasn't willing to go the extra mile, the super sacrifice.

299
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:24,000
He was still, you know, putting a lot of effort into it. But the drive just wasn't there anymore.

300
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:30,000
Yeah. I mean, I think he's more concerned about his magic underwear. If you know, you know.

301
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:43,000
Yes. Supposedly they hang those out on the line to try as often as possible to trick the neighbors into thinking they're having more sex than they are.

302
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:52,000
How many times do you think the kitchens closed in that religion?

303
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:57,000
We're not making fun of you guys. Hey, man, God bless you, man. You you worship however you want.

304
00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:02,000
We're just having a little fun. As long as you're not hurting anybody. We don't care. Yep.

305
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:09,000
All right. Shall we move on to the Patriots versus the Bengals? Yeah.

306
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:14,000
That was a game when I wanted both of them to kind of suck and be bad. Yeah.

307
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:18,000
But turned out just one of them did. Yeah.

308
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:22,000
We didn't give scores on this one. Did you know that? Funny. We missed it.

309
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:29,000
Well, we got sidetracked on some other shit. We're like a dog when we see a squirrel. Yeah.

310
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:38,000
So we didn't give scores, but I think evidently everyone else in the world thought the Patriots is going to win this except us.

311
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:44,000
I would have picked the Bengals. I would have too. Even in a bad day, I thought they would have won. Yeah.

312
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:52,000
You know, so yeah, the Bengals without Mixon, they do not look I mean, they look horrible.

313
00:27:52,000 --> 00:28:00,000
And it's been kind of NFL gospel for a while that if you have a decent line, you can plug any running back in there and get a decent running game.

314
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:06,000
But oops, turns out Mixon was the only thing keeping their running game going. Yes.

315
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:10,000
So this this isn't like the end of the season for the Bengals, of course.

316
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:15,000
But this is something to remember for the next couple of weeks and see how they do. Oh, yeah.

317
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:19,000
And also, we do very well in Kansas City. We have a lot of downloads in Kansas City.

318
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:23,000
So there's a lot of Kansas City people that listen. So this is why I'm saying this.

319
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:30,000
Don't expect a cakewalk against the Bengals. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. They hate us and they want to beat us with a passion.

320
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:35,000
Even if they're having a mediocre season or losing season, they'll come in here breathing fire.

321
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:41,000
Yeah. How many times the Broncos had a horrible season to come in here and kick the shit out of this just because they hate us.

322
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:47,000
Yeah. And vice versa. You know, you know, same thing.

323
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:51,000
I watch for it. It's going to happen. Yeah. You know, they have to eat a lot of their pride.

324
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:59,000
They were propped up so heavy and gave so much love because people did not want little Kansas City to do anything.

325
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:04,000
And they were propped up so big and everything. And it's got to be a hell of a letdown. Yeah.

326
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:12,000
And I think that if they beat us this year, they're going to go, all right, we may not have that good of a year.

327
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:16,000
This is later on. Right now, everyone thinks they're going to have a good year. Yeah. They're figuring it out.

328
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,000
You know, even even the Bengals are like, OK, we're going to get this thing figured out.

329
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,000
We're going to start blocking differently. This guy's going to start running differently.

330
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,000
Burroughs going to fake different. You know, they're all figuring it out.

331
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:31,000
But later on in the season, they're going to go, you know what? I mean, at least we beat Kansas City. Yeah.

332
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:40,000
And that's going to be it. So, you know, I think the mainstream sports entertainment industry has finally made their peace with Kansas City being a player.

333
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:45,000
In the early days, Mahomes, they were trying to downplay it.

334
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:51,000
There was lots of rumors and speculation that the chiefs should trade Mahomes to a bigger market.

335
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:56,000
Yeah. Yeah. That was them. Yeah. They were projecting. They wanted that. They wanted that. Yeah.

336
00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:04,000
So by now, industry has made their peace with Kansas City being a hot item.

337
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:10,000
But the fan base still can't to a large degree. They're like, oh, the chiefs. Are you kidding me?

338
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:15,000
And I love it's going to take a while to turn people's minds around.

339
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:20,000
You know, when the Patriots started winning, they were a sucky team for decades. Yeah.

340
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:27,000
I mean, that one blip in 85 when they went to the Super Bowl against the giant, the Bears, was an aberration.

341
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:31,000
But the Patriots had been just a shit organization for decades. Oh, yeah.

342
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:38,000
And it took people a while to figure out, OK, they're for real. But being in the New England area, it was a lot easier.

343
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:43,000
It's like, oh, big market. Yeah, whatever. She's had a little bit more of a struggle in that area.

344
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,000
But yeah, because really people will figure it out.

345
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:51,000
I think they're starting to, whether they admit it or not, even a little skipper ballist. Yeah.

346
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:55,000
Yeah, he he needs to retract. But he is such a little asshole.

347
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:59,000
He's going to keep waving his little fist at my homes. Yeah.

348
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,000
And he's just going to keep looking like an asshole. He's like Rush Limbaugh.

349
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:08,000
He found a character that works on and he won't be in radio and whatever.

350
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:12,000
Yeah. He's he's going to ride the money making pony for as long as he can.

351
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:21,000
Yeah. Yeah. So, you know, anyhow, so, you know, Natty is.

352
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:26,000
They're going to bring their best game. I think the way you beat them is a run.

353
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:31,000
They can't stop the run. They got one hundred and thirty yards on one hundred and thirty yards.

354
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:37,000
The Patriots did. That's pretty good. Can you name one of the running backs? I can't.

355
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:43,000
No idea. Jimmy, Jimmy Smith or Alex.

356
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:48,000
I don't know. Let me Williams or no, I'm just making generic names up.

357
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:54,000
Yeah. But see, in the past, they've had what they had Ligarret Blunt.

358
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:59,000
Was that his name? Yeah. He's not there anymore. No, no.

359
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:05,000
So, I mean, unless they drafted some dynamite young phenom that like caught right on,

360
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:09,000
they don't really have anybody running the ball and they still got one hundred and thirty yards on them.

361
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,000
And that was probably by several running backs. Yeah. Added up.

362
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,000
Not just one guy having a great day. That's what I'm thinking. Yeah.

363
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,000
Which shows that, you know, anybody can run on the Bengals.

364
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,000
So I'm looking for Pacheco to go insane on him. That would be so good.

365
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:27,000
He was running so hard that guy, he wants to be the elite running back

366
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,000
and he may very well do it the way he's running. Yeah.

367
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:35,000
His angry running is just it makes a cream hunt look like a cheerleader. It does.

368
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:40,000
I mean, every game you see him, he's back there.

369
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,000
He's ready to tear through people. Yeah.

370
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:47,000
So I think the run is the key to beat the Bengals and we will see.

371
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:51,000
I mean, like I said, they're going to have their best game and it's going to be another nuttucker, in my opinion.

372
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:56,000
Yeah. So I said nuttucker and the lady turned around and smiled.

373
00:32:56,000 --> 00:33:03,000
You would have seen it as classics.

374
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:11,000
Anyhow, Topher, you got some ideas on the game?

375
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:20,000
It really seemed to be the Patriots had an idea of what they wanted to do.

376
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:28,000
They didn't seem to be going for anything, you know, trick plays, lots of bombs down the field, whatever.

377
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,000
They just showed up and played good football. Yeah.

378
00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:37,000
The Bengals looked like they had an idea and a plan and it fell apart in the first five minutes

379
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,000
and they didn't know what to do at that point. That's funny.

380
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:44,000
That's exactly how I analyze it too is after that they didn't have an answer.

381
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:50,000
The thing that got me was Burroughs' inability to take the game on his back.

382
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:55,000
I've never seen that in him actually. I've just seen him just being a system guy.

383
00:33:55,000 --> 00:34:03,000
And I really do think that in a system he's fantastic, but I don't think he can improvise and I think it's been proven like Mahomes.

384
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:09,000
Yeah. I guess we're spoiled here with Mahomes because he's like super fiery, passionate.

385
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:13,000
Oh, he's a gold standard. He's what everybody else wants.

386
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:21,000
And you know, I don't expect Burroughs to be out Mahomes, Mahomes, but yeah, he doesn't look like he's like,

387
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:25,000
no, I'll do my part. Sure hope the rest of the guys do theirs. Yeah. He's that kind of guy.

388
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:31,000
No, no, you don't see him going across the body dead run. You don't see him breaking four tackles.

389
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:36,000
I mean, he gets sacked a lot. He's too fragile to risk his body the way Mahomes risks his.

390
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:41,000
Yeah. I mean, how many times he's been injured? Pretty much every season. Hasn't been?

391
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:49,000
Yeah, pretty much every season. So he's not durable. So as far as being unprepared, I put that on the coaching staff.

392
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:53,000
I do too. They should have had a backup plan. They should have been able to adapt.

393
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:59,000
Yeah. Burroughs should have come in and come to the sideline and said, look, this and this aren't working.

394
00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:03,000
But this over here is open for now. Let's take advantage of that. Yeah.

395
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:08,000
Burroughs fine, man. He's a good guy, I believe. And I think that he practices hard and he wants to win.

396
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:15,000
But when you have a coaching staff that's not on board with you and figuring out your assets is going to help win, there's not much you can do.

397
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:21,000
True. If you took Mahomes and said, you're just a pocket passer, that's it. It would be a disaster.

398
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:26,000
And their head coach is like that. It's like, we're going to make you fit our system. Yeah.

399
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:32,000
Yeah. The good ones. I mean, Schottenheimer was a great example of that. Yeah.

400
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:38,000
He had a staunch way of doing things. He didn't deviate. Well, except in the playoffs at one time. Yeah.

401
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:44,000
But he would do it to a fault. Yeah. This is a pattern for us to win and we're going to do it like that.

402
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:48,000
And that's kind of why he went through so many players. Yeah. They didn't like it.

403
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:53,000
Players would show up last half a season and out they go. Yeah.

404
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:58,000
Because they had to fit his mold and Schottenheimer wasn't really a compromising kind of guy.

405
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:04,000
No. No. So he wasn't for everybody. I mean, to me, his system used to work.

406
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:10,000
It will not work now. And that's how Kim Belichick is an employee, except in TV, I think. Yeah.

407
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:15,000
I think he got a TV contract somewhere. I think so. But we'll go into Tom Brady a little bit later.

408
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:20,000
We both have some feelings about that. But yeah, that make you fit my pattern kind of stuff.

409
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:24,000
It works pretty well in high school because guys are pretty malleable.

410
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:28,000
They haven't really set in their ways yet. It works decent in college.

411
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:34,000
But once you get to the pros, it's like you should realize what this guy is and what he's capable of.

412
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:41,000
I agree. And use that. Yeah. And if you can't, then I don't believe that you're kind of coach that can win.

413
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:45,000
Are we still going or not? Yeah, it's just crawling real slow. Oh, OK.

414
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:51,000
I forgot. I'm not used to audacity. I'm used to the audio tonic. Sorry. Yeah.

415
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:55,000
I zoomed way out so the whole. Oh, that's why I'm recording is showing up at once.

416
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,000
That way I can check for clipping or. Oh, that's cool. High spots.

417
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,000
OK, cool. Good idea, actually. Thank you. Thank you.

418
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:05,000
Well, we both went for the bingles. So, yeah.

419
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:12,000
The little electroshock collar we have around our necks just went off.

420
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:22,000
Little negative reinforcement. Yeah, that would be fun. Put shock collars on us.

421
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:31,000
All I put on here, I don't know, I was half asleep last night transcribing this out from when I scribbled down, listening to the podcast.

422
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:37,000
Right here. We were both for the Eagles and not for Green Bay. And that's all I put down.

423
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,000
So I guess that's the important thing. And I don't know if we gave a score on that.

424
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,000
Maybe not. We skipped. We skipped some. Yeah.

425
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:50,000
So I'm assuming we didn't give a score. Yeah. We both picked the Eagles. Go ahead.

426
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:57,000
Yeah, I think not to say the Eagles are like a top echelon team anymore, but they're good.

427
00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:02,000
They've got key players in good places. They've got lots of playoff experience, et cetera.

428
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:15,000
So more is expected of them. Green Bay really is kind of having trouble getting a new identity.

429
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:21,000
And Jordan Love got hurt in the game. I don't know what the extent of it is. I think he's out for a few weeks.

430
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:25,000
Yeah, that's the one question, one of the questions I had about Jordan Love.

431
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:30,000
And let's not forget, everyone had a year now to look at this guy. Yeah.

432
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:34,000
So they have the pattern of what they believe will be him. Yeah.

433
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:41,000
And I think the Eagles brushed on it, but didn't do it perfectly because I don't think they're that good of a team to do that against that caliber.

434
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:46,000
Yeah, they might. The Eagles will get better at it as the season goes along. Yeah, of course.

435
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:52,000
Teams will show more of their hand as the season goes along because it's more vital. Oh, yeah. That's a great point.

436
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:56,000
Right now, they're not putting out all the tricks and gimmicks. Yeah.

437
00:38:56,000 --> 00:39:05,000
They're real. They're just like, we're going to do this enough to win. Later on, we're going to do the stuff that we think is going to work against the really top notch teams.

438
00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:12,000
Yeah. Yeah. You want to you want to keep some things hidden and keep the speculation going. Yes. Until you really need it.

439
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:19,000
So Green Bay, they're in a decent division. Lions are tougher than them.

440
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:24,000
But the Vikings don't look like much and the Bears are kind of whatever.

441
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:29,000
The Vikings did very well. Yeah. But yeah, they have what the hell is his name?

442
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:35,000
I forgot. Damn it. QB. Yeah, the QB.

443
00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:40,000
I don't even know. He's he's been around a while. Anyhow, go ahead.

444
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:45,000
So I can't remember what my predictions were for Green Bay.

445
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:49,000
I'm going to take a look here, but

446
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:57,000
I don't think I had them listed too high. Yeah, I had the Packers down at like 10 and seven third in the division.

447
00:39:57,000 --> 00:40:04,000
They're going to choke in the when it counts in the regular season and they aren't going to be able to handle a line.

448
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:11,000
The Vikings quarterback. So I agree with you. That's kind of what I was feeling for the Daniel Jones.

449
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:18,000
Oh, yeah. That's right. Yeah. I mean, as soon as I saw that, not Mac Jones, but Daniel Jones, not Adam Pacman Jones.

450
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:24,000
I hear their brothers. I think everybody named Jones his brothers. Yes, I do, too.

451
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:29,000
Like that famous song Me and Mrs. Jones got something going on. I think that's probably their mom.

452
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:35,000
I think so. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Davy Jones. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That was her third cousin.

453
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:42,000
Yeah. He runs a sporting goods store. That's why he has a locker. Yes.

454
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:50,000
OK. OK. Settle down. This is a sports show. We don't make fun of things. Yeah, we do.

455
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:57,000
So anyway, I didn't have a whole lot more on the Eagles Packers than that.

456
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:01,000
I was not impressed with Green Bay in the least. They look generic.

457
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:06,000
They look slow. They look lethargic. And Jordan Love looked like an average quarterback.

458
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:14,000
Yeah, they need to get their head together if they're going to be anywhere. They look like an eight and nine or nine and eight team to me.

459
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:18,000
That's going to exit the playoffs if they make it really quick. Yeah.

460
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:26,000
Either the team has just got no fire and no motivation or if that's what they look like with fire and motivation, then they're going to have a hard time.

461
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:33,000
They're going to have a hard time. Yes. I did. Yeah, I was very unimpressed with them.

462
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:37,000
The Eagles look good. They have flashes of looking really good. Yeah.

463
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:41,000
They don't quite have that power punch without Jason Kelsey.

464
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:46,000
I can't remember how did Saquon Barkley do for the running game for the Eagles?

465
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:51,000
You know what? I don't think he did stand out because he wasn't in any of the highlights.

466
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:55,000
There wasn't on the bottom of the screen. Saquon Barkley got nine thousand yards.

467
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:59,000
So I think he was probably gave a pedestrian performance.

468
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:04,000
But if he was being used as a decoy, that's OK. Chances are that's what they did.

469
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:10,000
I think Sirianni knows enough and he knows not to mount off for the arrowhead now. Yeah.

470
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:15,000
Yeah, I think he probably does stuff like that. Yeah. He's like, go out there. We're going to flick it over here.

471
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:19,000
You know, we're going to pass. Yeah, I found that works pretty well.

472
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:35,000
What are some of Barkley's twenty twenty four regular season stats most of the time in real life and it works really well on video games as you go in with a running back and three tight ends and the other team is going to think run, run, run.

473
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,000
Barkley had an excellent game. OK.

474
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:50,000
One hundred nine yards. OK. Four point five average. Two touchdowns and two receptions. That is awesome. I wonder why nobody mentioned it, at least not in the KC area. I didn't see a lot of mention of it.

475
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:59,000
I can't believe it didn't stand out. I watched the game. Yeah, it probably did. I just forgot. I don't know. You know, you know, we all have lives.

476
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:11,000
Yeah. Well, if he is flying under the radar to that extent, that that sounds good for the Eagles future success. It does. He's going to be one hundred nine yards. That's that's a touchdown plus 10 yards. Yeah, that's right.

477
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:25,000
Yeah. Yeah. And you got two touchdowns. Yeah. And two receptions, too. So he's got that dual threat capability. So so Barkley, I think, is probably I mean, if he doesn't get injured, he should have pre-stellar.

478
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:34,000
Yeah, I think he's going to be mainstay of the offense. Probably the offense is going to kind of rise or fall, depending on Barkley's production.

479
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:46,000
I think that probably the plan there is Hertz needs to take a step back and Barkley needs to take a step forward. Yeah.

480
00:43:46,000 --> 00:44:04,000
The Hertz is another one like Lamar Jackson that is a broken leg waiting to happen. Yes. Some of those guys, when they run, you can just tell they are taking chances. They're not protecting themselves, especially Lamar Jackson.

481
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:20,000
He leaves himself open for the most brutal shots. I don't know why he does that. He should at least tuck, you know, like, like snail up, you know. Yeah. But no, he's a little hedgehog. Yeah.

482
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:35,000
I don't know why they don't. Maybe they did coach it. He just doesn't do it. But I don't know why they don't coach. Hey, fall to the ground. Yeah. Something. You know, Mahomes does it. A rushing quarterback is not the guy you want fighting for extra yards ever.

483
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:51,000
Unless the game is on the line. No, I know. I agree. You know, that one play. But yeah, you know, let your running back, your fullback or something fight for extra yards. But the quarterback, I don't know. Well, you see, that's the thing is, is he's always trying to make that play.

484
00:44:51,000 --> 00:45:09,000
He's kind of the opposite of burrow. He's putting the team on his back when he doesn't need to. Exactly. Yeah, they have a great defense. Likely. I don't know about his intellect, but he's a hell of a receiver. We'll go into that a little bit later.

485
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:28,000
Anyhow, likely is a hell of a receiver. Mahomes is right. We should have wore white cleats. Yes. But anyhow, I think we both agreed the Eagles was a superior team. They have a shot at it this year. They have a shot to go. I agree.

486
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:43,000
But I give them a lesser shot than San Francisco and Detroit. Yeah, I would say so. Yeah. Yeah. Next Steelers versus Falcons. Wow.

487
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:57,000
That didn't work out so well for the Falcons. No. Kirk Cousins didn't look all that great. I didn't think he would. ACL. He never was that standout of the quarterback. He's a good stat guy, but that's about it.

488
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:17,000
He'll bring you some good stats, but. Yeah, he's kind of like the game manager, which is a dirty word anymore. It is. But credit the Steelers for going into a dome stadium first week and doing what it takes.

489
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:27,000
It's not like the game was handed to him. No, the Steelers played well enough to win, played well enough to beat the home team. Actually, the Vikings won that.

490
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:39,000
I think, didn't they? OK, that's one of the ones I got wrong. Damn. Because that's that's all I heard was.

491
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:47,000
I'm gonna look like a moron. Yeah, I.

492
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:54,000
See, oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I think I might be the moron.

493
00:46:54,000 --> 00:47:01,000
No, no, no, no, that. Yeah. Here we go. 28 to 6.

494
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:08,000
I've got 18 to 10. OK, hang on. We've got some problems here.

495
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:16,000
28 6 is Vikings Giants. OK, so yeah, Steelers Falcons was Steelers 18 Falcons 10.

496
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:19,000
OK, all right. Thank you. Thank God.

497
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:30,000
I don't mean the idiot, but yeah, I mean, not a high scoring game. No, you know, kind of a weird score and a lot of touchdowns. Yeah, but Steelers got it done.

498
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:33,000
So.

499
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:38,000
Go ahead, is that it or yeah, that wasn't one of the ones I was able to watch.

500
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:45,000
No, me neither. I picked up info where I could get same here. Yeah.

501
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Steelers have a quarterback problem, but Mike Tomlin is a great coach.

502
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:58,000
So I think that they're going to win a lot of games like this that are just going to be really pedestrian games.

503
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:07,000
Yeah, that's all. Yeah, yeah, not really winning ugly, but just kind of winning boring. Yes, winning boring.

504
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:14,000
Yeah, I mean, pretty much I took the Falcons, so I'm minus one here.

505
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:21,000
Yeah, I think I took the Falcons too. OK, yep. Yeah, we both did.

506
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:29,000
So all right.

507
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:38,000
OK, the next one is Buffalo versus the Cards. Yeah, I'm sure I took Buffalo in that one because I don't think much of the Cardinals.

508
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:46,000
But damn if the Cardinals didn't play him tough. They played him really tough. What was the final like 33, 34, 28, 34, 28.

509
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:57,000
Yeah, Buffalo's defense doesn't look exceptional. No, no, not if the cards can put four touchdowns on you.

510
00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:02,000
Yeah, Kyler Murray without Brown. Yeah, they lost Hollywood Brown.

511
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:06,000
He doesn't really have that many receivers that I'm aware of.

512
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:15,000
Yeah, that was really seemed like a strange move for the Cardinals to get rid of such a key piece of their offense that they were counting on.

513
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:20,000
Excuse me. Did they trade him to us? I think it was a trade, yeah.

514
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:25,000
Do you think maybe he hijacked him? I thought it. Hang on.

515
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:29,000
So we keep asking each other questions that we don't know. Yeah, I know.

516
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:33,000
Well, if it's a trade, that doesn't make sense at all. It doesn't matter.

517
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:38,000
If it was a free agent, then they needed to find a way to sign him. Yeah.

518
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:46,000
Well, whatever it was, I can't believe that they wouldn't. They may have tried, who knows? So anyhow, Hollywood Brown's here.

519
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:54,000
So Kyler Murray and the Buffalo defense and Buffalo defense doesn't seem to be what it was or at least not on this game.

520
00:49:54,000 --> 00:50:03,000
Yeah. We'll see what happens because my opinion and your opinion too is if the cards put up that many points on you, you're not that good.

521
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:11,000
Yeah. And this was at home. Yeah. Buffalo was at home. Yeah. And first game of the season at home, you get judged a little harder.

522
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:19,000
Yes. And wasn't it 17-14, the divisional round where we went to Buffalo?

523
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:26,000
That sounds right. He held the Chiefs to 14 points. They held the Chiefs to 14 points. So what happened in the offseason?

524
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:33,000
Yeah. So yeah, we'll see if they get better or not. But I know this, they're not as good.

525
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:42,000
You know, Buffalo isn't because they let Stevon Diggs go. Yeah. Every season there's teams that do a whole lot worse than you think they are.

526
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:55,000
Yep. I picked the cards on an upset. So a minus one there. You picked the Bills 30 to 17. You weren't that far off. You're about 10 points off.

527
00:50:55,000 --> 00:51:05,000
Yeah. That's not bad. Yeah. We're going to be getting lucky. Yeah.

528
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:20,000
Let's see here. Chicago versus the Titans. Well, Bears won, but Caleb Williams passed for less than 100 yards. Yes. That's a problem.

529
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:30,000
It is. It's a big problem. I mean, congrats on the win, but Caleb Williams ran for almost as much as he threw for, didn't he?

530
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:38,000
And then I think he scored a touchdown on the ground. Well, there's a problem with that, like you said, because he isn't that type of a quarterback generally.

531
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:47,000
Yeah. And it works okay in college. But in the pros, a running quarterback has got a short career span. Yeah.

532
00:51:47,000 --> 00:52:02,000
Congratulations to him on the win. But is this an indictment of how bad the Titans might be? But Chicago was one of the worst teams last year.

533
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:13,000
Yeah. Yeah. It's hard to tell, really, because on the one hand, the Titans held Caleb Williams to so few passing yards. On the other hand, they still couldn't win.

534
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:24,000
Well, but one of them was Legerrius Snead. That's true. And he is a rookie quarterback. And Legerrius Snead doesn't give up touchdowns. No, he does not.

535
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:34,000
He's allergic to that. Yeah. Yeah, I think both teams should look at this as a real disappointment. Yeah, that's exactly what I think, too.

536
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:43,000
I think they're both looking in the mirror going, man, we have got to shore things up. Yeah. It's a long season. They're going to have to start figuring this stuff out.

537
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:51,000
Chicago got the win, props to them. But they have much to work on. But the Titans may have a lot more to work on the way of season. Yeah.

538
00:52:51,000 --> 00:53:00,000
You know, Will Levis needs to quit doing Mayo commercials and maybe work on that quarterback position. Hey, Al, I'm sorry. I think you're going to say something.

539
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:10,000
I was going to say that fortunately for these two teams, it counts as a loss and that's it. It's not within the division. It's not within the conference.

540
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:16,000
So I agree. It has zero implication beyond it's a loss on your or a win on your schedule.

541
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:23,000
To me, I would look at this game as almost like a preseason game. Almost. Yeah. The reason is, is because you're trying different things out.

542
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:31,000
It's not necessarily going to probably at the end of the year mean much of anything. True, true. So why not look at it like that?

543
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:38,000
Just go, you know what? We're going to go out and maybe that's part of it. Maybe that's why Caleb Williams had under 100 yards. Yeah.

544
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:49,000
They just said, hey, man, shrug this one off. Yeah. Yeah. I think the reason they ran so much was simply luxurious need.

545
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:58,000
Being a shut down corner and maybe you don't want to ruin your quarterback on the first game. True. Yeah, that's a good point.

546
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:05,000
You wouldn't want to put him in a lot of situations where he's got a good chance to fail. Yeah. To wreck with his confidence.

547
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:11,000
But how do you explain he just, you know, was it in completions? Was he just not taking shots?

548
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:17,000
I was wondering if it was dink and dunk and the people were stopped right there. I don't know. It's weird. I don't know.

549
00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:24,000
Well, you know what? The jury's still out on him and right now I would give him probably about a C. Yeah.

550
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:32,000
So, you know, he's got nowhere to go but up, really. Yeah. Yep. And we'll see how it goes.

551
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:40,000
Let's see. The Texans. I screwed this whole thing up so bad.

552
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:51,000
I was half asleep when I fucking tried to transcribe it last night. I apologize. I really thought it was going to be better than this.

553
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:56,000
Who the hell did the Texans? The Texans played the Colts. The Colts. That's right.

554
00:54:56,000 --> 00:55:04,000
I was picking the Texans to have a great year so I'm sure I picked the Texans. Not by that close to score I'm sure. It was 29-27.

555
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:10,000
You picked the Texans 35-10. That's right. And I picked the Texans 32-13.

556
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:21,000
So, the Colts scored a lot more points than we thought they would. Yeah. Their quarterback looked pretty good. Richardson? Yeah.

557
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:28,000
Yeah, he is tough. He might be somebody to watch. You know, they've been touting this guy. They had him last year, didn't they?

558
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:36,000
Yeah, I don't think he's really... he was in his practice squad. Yeah, something like that. They really like this guy and they utilized him perfectly.

559
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:45,000
Yeah, that's smart. The Texans won but like I was kind of thinking and you were thinking too, they had a year to study C.J. Stroud. Yeah.

560
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:53,000
This is where he either comes back to earth or he excels. So, we're going to see what happens.

561
00:55:53,000 --> 00:56:04,000
I mean, I think that he's good enough right now to probably make the playoffs again. Yeah. But is the tubeledge he's getting the right one?

562
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:12,000
Like I said last year, if Andy Reid would have had that guy on this team, they would have went to the Super Bowl too. Yeah.

563
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:21,000
Because he would have gotten the right nurturing that they needed and he would have coached him along and did the stuff he couldn't do and didn't let him do the stuff he couldn't do.

564
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:34,000
Yeah, this season right here is going to be the time for C.J. Stroud to show either he's got more than what you've seen so far or he can learn new things. Yes.

565
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:46,000
Because if this is all... I mean, he's super talented. He's a great quarterback. But if he's already shown you everything he can do, he'll get figured out and he'll be neutralized. Yes.

566
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:58,000
You've got to be unpredictable. You've got to keep learning things. You've got to keep surprising people so they don't get you figured out. So, this is going to become that kind of season for Stroud.

567
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:06,000
Yeah. And another thing is it looked like they're guarding against a long ball because they saw him last year. Yeah. Yeah.

568
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:14,000
So, you're going to see a lot of teams like the Colts and that going, yeah, don't let them get the big one. Let them get a couple in the middle. Don't let them get the big one.

569
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:29,000
Yeah. I mean, at its core, if you make them run six plays to get 30 yards as opposed to one play to get 30 yards, you've got five chances more to intercept or fumble or whatever.

570
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:34,000
So, those big chunk plays take away opportunities to get the ball away from them.

571
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:44,000
Yeah. All these defensive coordinators were studying the film in the whole offseason and figuring this guy out. So, now it's going to be up to CJ Stroud to figure out how to break it.

572
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:56,000
And also, but this is where I go with the coaches. The coaches have to give him the right tootlage and give him the right plays to be successful. So, we're going to see. I mean, I think he's got a ton of talent.

573
00:57:56,000 --> 00:58:05,000
Yeah. Texans don't have a reputation of building quarterbacks or having career franchise quarterbacks. I'm afraid of him becoming wasted. Yeah. Yeah.

574
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:15,000
Now, hopefully he can become the new standard for the Texans and he'll be hailed as the first true franchise quarterback they have because I want them to do well. I want them to be great. I do too.

575
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:19,000
I'd love to have the Chiefs meeting the Texans every year in the playoffs. That would be cool.

576
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:31,000
Well, I want that earmark game in December where they're coming to Arrowhead. CJ Stroud, the young phenom against the guy that's done it all, possibly the greatest player ever.

577
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:40,000
Yeah. That game is going to be so much more fun if the Texans are winning and CJ Stroud is doing well. Yes. I'd love to see that.

578
00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:55,000
And I want a shootout. I want like the Baker Mayfield, Patrick Mahomes, Oklahoma, Texas Tech shootout. Yeah. 65 to 63 or whatever the hell that was. I want that.

579
00:58:55,000 --> 00:59:00,000
That would be fun. But that's not what you're going to get. This Chiefs defense will not allow that.

580
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:08,000
Back in the 80s, the Jets and the Dolphins used to have these massive shootouts. Oh gosh, yeah. Like almost 100 points a game. It's the craziest thing.

581
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:17,000
Was it Testicle or quarterback? That was Ken O'Brien. It was Ken O'Brien. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's right. It was Marino for the Dolphins and Ken O'Brien for the Jets. Yeah.

582
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:24,000
And man, it was just offense all day long. That's funny. You know who I was talking about. Testicle. Vinnie Testicles. Yeah. Vinnie Testicles.

583
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:31,000
There was a guy I used to work with that called him Vinnie Testicles all the time. Testicles. Awesome.

584
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:41,000
Next one on the docket is the Dolphins versus the Jags. Now, I've got some thoughts on this game too.

585
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:51,000
Who did I pick? You picked the Dolphins. I picked the Dolphins. Okay. And I picked the Dolphins also.

586
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:58,000
All right. So we both got that right. Yours is 30 to 14. Mine was 24 to 20. You were a lot closer. It was 20-17.

587
00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:08,000
Oh, wow. I didn't realize I picked that. Okay. Yeah. Okay. So I think I looked for a lot more wide open games opening weekend.

588
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:18,000
Yeah. But a lot of them wound up being closer. Dolphins did well. Jaguars did better than I thought they would.

589
01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:25,000
I don't know. I didn't really see anything that changes my mind about either team. I think the Jags are going to have a troubled season.

590
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:31,000
I think the Dolphins are going to have a really good one. Yeah. Yeah. I think this is make or break for Doug Peterson.

591
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:39,000
I think if they don't make the playoffs and at least win one game, he's going to be back with Kansas City next.

592
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:48,000
But that's true. You know, you give the coach everything he needs, everything he's asked for, and he's still not winning in the playoffs or even getting into the playoffs.

593
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:54,000
It's like, yeah, we can't blame the team. We gave you the team. We've got the pieces. You're just not using them right.

594
01:00:54,000 --> 01:01:04,000
The only saving grace for Peterson is he did not draft Trevor Lawrence. True. That's all. He didn't have any hand in that.

595
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:09,000
I don't know if Trevor Lawrence is that good. I don't know if he's that dedicated.

596
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:14,000
Yeah. He's another one of those guys that maybe we've seen everything he can do. Kind of almost looks like it.

597
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:20,000
And he's got nothing new to show us. So you know what to expect from him. He's getting ready to get out of his rookie contract.

598
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:31,000
That's going to be interesting to see if they're willing to pay him the quarterbacks pay of the scale now or if they're going to opt to go somewhere else.

599
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:40,000
Yeah, that's an interesting thing. He may feel with his accomplishments that he deserves to be paid in the neighborhood of the home.

600
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:48,000
I'm going to guarantee you if Alex Cousins, or not Alex Cousins, if Kirk Cousins got that kind of a contract, he's going to want more.

601
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:56,000
He's younger. Yeah. And he has more of an upside. He doesn't have a torn ACL and he's not like 37 or whatever.

602
01:01:56,000 --> 01:02:02,000
Yeah, he would do himself a huge favor by having a great year, a great season, putting up massive stats.

603
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:06,000
That would help in negotiations. Yeah.

604
01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:14,000
I don't know. I think the fan base in Jacksonville is not tired of him yet. They'd be more likely to let the coach go than the quarterback.

605
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:24,000
I agree. And also, I don't think they care that much. Yeah. I mean, you can go, you can get in any game just like that.

606
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:29,000
Yeah. We could like buy tickets right now to their next home game and get good ones.

607
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:38,000
Yeah, I think Jacksonville fan base is happy to have a successful team, a winning team and a shot at the playoffs. And they're happy just to be there.

608
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:48,000
Exactly. Yeah. So, anyhow, we both got that right. And we can speak about the Tyreke Hill incident now or later.

609
01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:54,000
You're going to have to fill me in on that. I missed that one. We'll do it a little bit later.

610
01:02:54,000 --> 01:03:01,000
Okay. It's interesting. I can tell you that. I remember seeing his face on the screen a lot, but I had the sound down.

611
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:07,000
Yeah. I was kind of doing some other things at the same time. So. Okay. No, that's cool. I'll clue you in on it.

612
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:14,000
The next one on the docket is Giants versus Panthers. So we got both of those right.

613
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:22,000
Giants and Vikings. Saints and Panthers. I'm sorry, man. I was half asleep last night writing this out.

614
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:30,000
Saints and Giants looked almost identical on the page. Yeah. Yeah. Saints and Panthers was 47-10. Yeah. And you said.

615
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:37,000
I think Saints going to do well. Yeah. And we both went for the Saints. Yeah. And Panthers are being the Panthers.

616
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:45,000
And if I remember correctly, I think I thought the Saints are going to score 24 points. So you're much closer on that one, I think.

617
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:58,000
So what's his name? The quarterback for the Saints. From. Car. Car. Derrick Carr looked sharp. Looked good. Yep.

618
01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:05,000
I've always liked Derrick Carr. Me too. I always thought he was a solid quarterback. I don't know why they got rid of him and got Heropolo.

619
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:12,000
Because I was thinking. At the time I was thinking he was the same quarterback. Now I think Carr is much better. Yeah.

620
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:18,000
It had to have been some sort of off the field personality thing. Oh, it was because they sat him, remember? Yeah.

621
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:23,000
They sat him for four games for no reason. Yeah. And the Raiders are notorious for that.

622
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:32,000
You know, getting into a little tantrum with their players. Yeah. And Devontae Adams, I'm sure, wasn't too happy about that.

623
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:38,000
Because that's the reason. One of the big reasons he went to the Raiders is because Derrick Carr. Yeah.

624
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:48,000
And when they sat him, Devontae had to be pissed. And when they dealt him, he had to be pissed. True. True.

625
01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:57,000
Yeah. But that's the Raiders. They'll burn their own house down just to make a point. And they did too. Yeah.

626
01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:08,000
I mean, so much so to where their coach I really like. I'm worried about them ruining him. True.

627
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:14,000
If he doesn't have good success soon, then let's hope he gets out of there and gets a chance somewhere else.

628
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:20,000
I think he should. I think he should step down. This season, if they do horrible and the stats are horrible, I think he should.

629
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:26,000
He'd just go, you know what? This isn't working out like I thought. Yeah. Just gleaming on not being a good fit or something.

630
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:31,000
Yeah. Yeah. I think he'd do better. But I mean, I'm afraid that they're going to ruin him over there.

631
01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:42,000
I know. It'd be a shame. So, next one would be Chargers versus Raiders, speaking of the Raiders.

632
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:52,000
You picked the Raiders, 30 to 13. Yeah. Oops. And I believe, didn't I pick the Chargers?

633
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:58,000
I think you did. Yeah. Yeah. I thought the Raiders were going to have a much better year.

634
01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:04,000
So, I was starting to pick them in a lot of games. I picked Chargers as my surprise team. Yeah.

635
01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:14,000
Anyhow, go ahead. Yeah. I still don't think the Chargers are all that good, but they were sure good enough to beat the Raiders.

636
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:19,000
Yeah. And I don't think it took much. Yeah. Yeah. Two scorers. That's all the Raiders got.

637
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:30,000
Yeah. I think that because Jim Harbaugh is so good with working with talented quarterbacks, that he's going to will at least four games.

638
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:38,000
Yeah. So, I'm going to put that with some tomato cans they have in their schedule.

639
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:46,000
And I'm going to say, I'm still going to say eight and nine, or nine and eight, depending on a little luck and a ball flip, you know, something like that.

640
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:57,000
Someone dropping the ball or whatever. I thought it was going to be a bigger deal that the Chargers head coach is only there because he's so crooked he got ran out of college football.

641
01:06:57,000 --> 01:07:05,000
Yeah. And we both talked about that. And that is true. I mean, he wasn't ready to go back to the NFL. He was loving college and they caught him.

642
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:15,000
And there's already a documentary out on him called Secret Signs Dealer. It's all about Harbaugh and the Michigan Wolverines. I mean, it's already out there.

643
01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:22,000
Oh, I mean, Netflix, Hulu, I forget what you're talking about. He was going to have the death sentence for what, six years or something? Something like that. Yeah.

644
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:38,000
He wasn't going to stick around there. The question I got, I don't know if you know this or not, if he goes back in a few years, if he's done doing that well in the NFL and he goes back in a few years, do you think that they're going to still impose a penalty on him because he's no longer with Michigan?

645
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:47,000
I don't think they will. I think if he can bring a whole, if he has a bunch of success in the NFL and then goes back to college, they're going to welcome him with open arms.

646
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:52,000
You see, I think maybe his heart isn't in it. He's doing it because he has to, but he really wants to go back to college.

647
01:07:52,000 --> 01:08:14,000
So he's got to succeed here to be attractive enough to go back to college. Yeah. Yeah. He was in a bad predicament. And anyhow, yeah, like you said, man, the dude, I don't know. I never did really like him. I like John Harbaugh better. He seems like a more, more even keel, not so sporadic guy.

648
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:33,000
Which one of them was the quarterback for the Bears? Was that Jim? Jim. Jim. Yeah. Yeah. I wasn't impressed him as a quarterback. I thought he was a crybaby in a powder. He was. I remember the playoff game between the Colts and this is Rich Gannon, I believe. And he won it.

649
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:38,000
But he was still whining after it. I forgot what it was or something he was saying. And,

650
01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:53,000
Hey, I agree. He's a whiner. Yeah. There was a Bears game where Didkiss sent in a play and said, call this play, do this play, don't audible out of it. And he went to the line and audibled out of it and threw an interception.

651
01:08:53,000 --> 01:09:02,000
And the first thing Harbaugh did was go whining to the press. Coach says I can't play audibles anymore. I remember that. I remember that. Yeah.

652
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:15,000
Didn't keep his mouth shut. Didn't take his punishment. Not a game player. Yeah. I mean, he did exactly what the coach told him not to do. And then he whined about it to the press.

653
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:30,000
So, I mean, that's been my impression of Jim Harbaugh. Right from the beginning. I can't argue any of that. What does it say about the NFL that they're willing to let such a horrible, horrible cheater into the league? Just like, yeah, come on, man. No problem.

654
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:41,000
That is such a good point. I guess, I suppose they can't really stop an owner from doing what they want because he's not actually done anything towards the NFL.

655
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:58,000
Yeah, I think that's the excuse is what he's doing in college. He's not going to be able to get away with in the NFL. But that just means he's going to come up with something else because he's demonstrated he's a cheater that will cheat and continue to cheat if it's successful.

656
01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:05,000
What makes you think he's going to be any different in the NFL? He's going to cheat. He's going to try to get away with it as much as possible.

657
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:15,000
I think the only thing I think that's going to run him out of the Chargers is he's going to get involved in some big cheating scandal. They're going to have to dump it. Yeah. And then college won't want him back.

658
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:24,000
Well, I would be very cautious on that game against them, the Chiefs. Yeah. He's going to try to hurt my hopes. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's going to be Bounty Gate all over again. Oh, yeah.

659
01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:38,000
So, yeah, I think the way you saw that is eye for an eye. So when does that you go right after their quarterback and take a penalty and then go over there and say, you don't do it. We don't do it.

660
01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:48,000
They do that in baseball. Yeah, you know, one team pitcher beams a batter, then the other team is going to beam someone to and it's like, all right, now we're even what you're going to do.

661
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:58,000
Yeah. And then it's done. Yeah. It's like, OK, you did it first. You did it second. Boom. Then the umpire comes out and starts pointing at each one going either one of you guys one more year out.

662
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:10,000
And then that's it. Yep. So and actually, I remember an umpire can even forfeit the game for that. Oh, wow. He can stop the game and give it to the even if if what I read is correct.

663
01:11:10,000 --> 01:11:24,000
I hope so. I read on the Internet. So it's got to be true that even if the other team is leading. Yeah, I would hope that that would be right because the pitcher is intentionally trying to cause physical damage to the opposing batter.

664
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:33,000
And they don't have to take that. They don't have to put up with that. That should be criminal assault. I mean, the police should be waiting for the guy in the locker room. Yeah, I agree.

665
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:44,000
And, you know, screw your traditions. You know, if he's throwing this this ball at 100 miles an hour at a guy's head. Yeah, he should be going to jail for that.

666
01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:54,000
That's potentially killing somebody. Yeah. And if he wants to whine and say, is an accident got away from me as well, then you can't be a pitcher anymore because you're endangering people's lives.

667
01:11:54,000 --> 01:12:09,000
Yeah, but it's just something that people put up with in baseball and cry and whine about it. But then don't do anything about it. But in the NFL. Yeah, you're right. I think the Chargers is going to be one of several teams that are going to come in here with the idea of injure the key.

668
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:21,000
The team's key players and knock them out of the playoff race. Yep, I agree. That's I think that's the reality of this season is the team's players are going to be intentionally hurt.

669
01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:29,000
Oh, yeah, yeah, they want to knock them off the throne. Well, this next one go and put a minus on both of ours.

670
01:12:29,000 --> 01:12:37,000
The Seahawks beat the Broncos. Yeah, I really wish I could have seen that game without having to pay for stream that game look great.

671
01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:52,000
It looked great, didn't it? I wish I could have too. But I'm not going to pay for streaming because it pisses me off. I love to see it and I can afford it. But it pisses me off that bad and rages me that bad that they're fucking ripping us off that bad.

672
01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:57,000
Yeah, I'm like, No, I'm not going to be a part of it, even though I do want to see these games. Yeah.

673
01:12:57,000 --> 01:13:09,000
And it was done fully knowing that this was a desirable game that the Chiefs would want to see. And so they picked that one to put behind the paywall.

674
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:20,000
Let's face it, 10 years ago, that would have been on on our TV. Absolutely. Because the Chiefs already played Thursday, or would have been the game opposite if they could have or whatever.

675
01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:29,000
You know, because but now because it's a preferred game, something we have somewhat of an interest in. They throw it straight to pay per view.

676
01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:38,000
Yeah. And even if you get on your Internet radio app and find this radio stations carrying the play by play, it'll be blacked out in your area.

677
01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:46,000
When it was 101 the Fox carrying them, all you heard was music. Yep. It pissed me off to no end. I was out of town working.

678
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:55,000
And I was like, Oh, no problem. I was in Nashville. I remember well. And anyhow, I'm like, Oh, okay. So I go to Brian, I was working with Hang on, Hang on, Hang on.

679
01:13:55,000 --> 01:14:03,000
I can get it on the radio. 101 the Fox has an app. Oh, great idea. Put it on and they kept playing music. What the fuck?

680
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:07,000
And it turns out that they just play other programming while the game's on.

681
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:16,000
It's the NFL hasn't figured out a way to monetize that yet because you can't count how many people are listening to that broadcast. They just shut it down.

682
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:21,000
So they say, Hey, you know, we want to charge you per per listener, but we can't figure out how to do that yet.

683
01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:28,000
So you can't do it. I wonder if Odyssey, the owner of 96.5 Sports, the fan or whatever.

684
01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:36,000
I wonder if they can work something out with them to where you can do it on the app, because a lot of people I know they're FM and they have in the AM is simulcast.

685
01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:44,000
But you think about how many people would rather just go online and hear it for a lot of different reasons, whether it work or what, you know.

686
01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:51,000
Oh, yeah. Unfortunately, I think this falls under league wide regulation. You know what? You're right.

687
01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:58,000
There's nothing they can do about it. It's in place to protect shared revenues between all 30. Yeah, that's right.

688
01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:05,000
So there's no way one team is going to make any changes because it's a shared revenue thing between all the teams.

689
01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:13,000
And they will. Well, actually, I do have a pay for listen. OK, yeah, they do that on the NFL app. That's true.

690
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:24,000
You can listen or watch to any game. OK, yeah. So they're they're funneling you towards their established pay app to pay for listen, pay per view, et cetera.

691
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:31,000
It's just like when I bought Royals tickets and anyhow, you had to go through to get the tickets online.

692
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:36,000
You had to go through their app, the Major League Baseball play ball app. I think it's what it's called.

693
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:39,000
So they get their cut. I was so pissed. I mean, this is bullshit.

694
01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:43,000
And now they send me stuff all the time that I don't want. Yeah.

695
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:48,000
But, you know, if a game is going to be streamed, they're only going to allow one source so they can control the price.

696
01:15:48,000 --> 01:15:56,000
You're right. More than one source, then there's a price war and NFL loses. Yeah. So.

697
01:15:56,000 --> 01:16:02,000
This next one, go ahead and give us another minus. Cowboys versus Browns.

698
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:05,000
Yeah, man, that was disappointing. It really was.

699
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:11,000
I'm not only for the Browns to lose, but for it to be not a very good game.

700
01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:15,000
I went low scoring. Yeah. Late fumble.

701
01:16:15,000 --> 01:16:19,000
Twenty three to twenty one. And you said twenty one twenty. Yeah.

702
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:27,000
The Browns got 17 points, so they were kind of close. But then the Cowboys just piled it on.

703
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:32,000
Yeah. And Deshaun Watson, I think he's gone. Yeah, I don't see anything there anymore.

704
01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:35,000
Whatever was there before that little spark, it's gone.

705
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:40,000
I think it too much has went by, too much trouble has happened, and he's just out of it now.

706
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:48,000
I think among the the female audience, he's one of the most hated guys in football.

707
01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:51,000
Well, I never thought about that. But you're right, man. He took advantage.

708
01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:53,000
Yeah. Or supposedly or whatever.

709
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:59,000
I can see from a female perspective thinking this guy got away with all of that crap

710
01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:01,000
and he's still making millions and help.

711
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:06,000
And on the broadcast, the announcers can't say anything bad about him. They got to talk about him.

712
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:11,000
Oh, he's great. This is wonderful. That is because they're required to never say anything bad.

713
01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:15,000
Tom Brady kind of screwed that one up. Yes.

714
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:18,000
He was starting to say all sorts of negative things about the Browns.

715
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:23,000
They'll talk to him this week and next week he's going to not say anything bad about the teams.

716
01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:27,000
I've got a lot to say about Tom Brady and so do you.

717
01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:32,000
Because when you alerted me to it when I got home, I was like, I earmarked that game.

718
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:37,000
Yeah. It could not have went worse. Yeah. So anyhow.

719
01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:43,000
And I watched a YouTube video a while back about with guys and Rick Goldman,

720
01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:46,000
who was the worst play by play announcer in NFL history.

721
01:17:46,000 --> 01:17:50,000
He did one game and screwed it up so badly that they shit candle.

722
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:58,000
Wow. It was Fox. And he was calling games for the Vikings.

723
01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:03,000
And he called the game between the Vikings and the Lions and he got everything wrong.

724
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:09,000
Down in distance, the names of the players, names of the coaches, play after play.

725
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:13,000
He was calling the wrong game. He's like, oh, well, nothing there.

726
01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:17,000
The guy gained three yards. Oh, well, he ran for about six, eight yards.

727
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:22,000
He got a first down. It was 12 yards. He was just wrong constantly.

728
01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:30,000
He started talking about a Vikings player being so glad to work with the Lions head coach is just total screw up.

729
01:18:30,000 --> 01:18:36,000
And what was his name? Mike Goldman. I'm going to look for his most worst quote.

730
01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:42,000
Yeah. And then during the during the in between week, you know, Fox was like, yeah, you screwed up.

731
01:18:42,000 --> 01:18:44,000
But we're going to let him do the next game anyway.

732
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:50,000
But during the during the week, he got called out by some fans on social media and he started cussing them out.

733
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:55,000
And then Fox said, yeah, you can't cut out our fans because you did screw up.

734
01:18:55,000 --> 01:19:04,000
So this wasn't real long ago. I would say this was 90s or early 2000s or some judging by the graphics on the game.

735
01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:10,000
OK. Wow. But yeah, it was some sort of Facebook or Twitter or something feed.

736
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:15,000
I called him out and he tweeted back, you know, fuck you, man. Yep.

737
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:21,000
And his defense was, well, I call a lot of MMA fights and that's kind of how you do it.

738
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:26,000
And I know she does know you don't do that. You don't respond to the Packers.

739
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:31,000
Yeah. And I mean, like, you know, birds pecking at you. Yeah. Yeah. You don't respond to them.

740
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:37,000
Yeah. So anyway, apart from the play by play, we'll get have fun getting back to Brady.

741
01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:43,000
But, you know, the Cowboys just played like it was midseason form.

742
01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:47,000
Browns were struggling. They surprised me. Yeah.

743
01:19:47,000 --> 01:19:50,000
Browns couldn't string together successive good plays.

744
01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:53,000
It was always just, you know, two steps forward, five steps back.

745
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:57,000
I didn't see much of Elliott, though. No.

746
01:19:57,000 --> 01:20:00,000
I think that he's going to be an insurance policy now.

747
01:20:00,000 --> 01:20:03,000
I would say so. And he's a fan favorite. It'll help see us sell season tickets.

748
01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:06,000
I can't remember. Did they have Pollard?

749
01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:11,000
I don't remember seeing Pollard's name. I think he left. So, OK.

750
01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:17,000
Yeah. Jack was playing really well, especially concerning it's the press.

751
01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:21,000
That is Jack's template, though. That's true.

752
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:24,000
An important game. He's going to shit the bed. Yeah. Yeah.

753
01:20:24,000 --> 01:20:27,000
He's always best when it doesn't really matter all that much. Exactly.

754
01:20:27,000 --> 01:20:31,000
So the jury's still out, I say. Yeah, they look great right now.

755
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:33,000
What about December? January?

756
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:38,000
You know, if he's choking the important games because he's overthinking and too worried,

757
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:42,000
then, man, take a couple of hits of weed before the game. Chill out.

758
01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:46,000
Yes.

759
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:50,000
That'll silence those voices in your head. Be done.

760
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:55,000
Of course, not that I want the Cowboys to succeed. No. I agree.

761
01:20:55,000 --> 01:20:58,000
So, yeah, Cowboys are looking a lot stronger than I thought they were going to be.

762
01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:04,000
And Browns, yeah, like you said, I think Deshaun Watson is definitely not the answer.

763
01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:09,000
No. I mean, actually, the thing that clued me into it last year is when Joe Flacco came in

764
01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:14,000
and the team actually started ascending more than with Deshaun Jackson.

765
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:16,000
That was pretty telling. You know?

766
01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:21,000
Watson. Deshaun Watson. I always call him Jackson. Anyhow.

767
01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:25,000
Yeah. Man, it's not going to be a good season for the Browns fans.

768
01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:26,000
Oh, thanks. No.

769
01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:33,000
Yeah, sure, we're judging from one game, but at home, not good.

770
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:37,000
No, no, no. They're at home. They should have at least put up a fist fight, and they didn't.

771
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:40,000
Yeah, Cleveland's got a great home field advantage.

772
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:41,000
Yeah, they have the dog pound.

773
01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:44,000
You've got to give them something. You can't.

774
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:48,000
Oh, those fans looked dejected. They looked like the leveler of life just broke up with them.

775
01:21:48,000 --> 01:21:54,000
I'm sure the preseason propaganda in Cleveland was, this is it, man. This is our year. We're strong.

776
01:21:54,000 --> 01:22:00,000
We're coming on. And they show up for the first game and see them just peeing down their leg.

777
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:04,000
You know, the last time they went to the playoffs, I do believe it was Bill Belichick that took them there.

778
01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:06,000
Was it?

779
01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:08,000
It's been a while.

780
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:12,000
Hmm. Damn. Let me see.

781
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:13,000
Huh.

782
01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:15,000
You know what? No, no, no. Stay on track.

783
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:17,000
OK. Yeah. All right.

784
01:22:17,000 --> 01:22:18,000
Done there.

785
01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:24,000
Yep. Look, stuff that matters to us, pride does not matter to other people. We're nerds.

786
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:28,000
Next one. Bucks versus Rams. We both have the Bucks.

787
01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:30,000
I've got Bucks and Commanders.

788
01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:32,000
Oh, I mean Commanders. Sorry.

789
01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:35,000
You know what I did?

790
01:22:35,000 --> 01:22:40,000
Somehow I got some sentences mixed up on here.

791
01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:45,000
I don't know. I probably hit the wrong function key.

792
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:51,000
Yeah. Bucks versus Washington. Sorry. And I do have it down here. Bucks versus Washington is just below it.

793
01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:54,000
So.

794
01:22:54,000 --> 01:22:56,000
Who did I pick?

795
01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:58,000
You picked the Bucks and so did I.

796
01:22:58,000 --> 01:23:01,000
Yeah. OK. That's right. Yeah.

797
01:23:01,000 --> 01:23:03,000
The Rams.

798
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:07,000
Commanders quarterback didn't do all that well this game.

799
01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:10,000
Oh, no. Wait a minute. You picked Washington 27-21.

800
01:23:10,000 --> 01:23:12,000
OK. Well, another wrong for me.

801
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:14,000
And I picked the Bucks 28-17.

802
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:18,000
Yeah. I was kind of thinking the Bucks would have a down year.

803
01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:21,000
Not so great.

804
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:24,000
I was pretty wrong about this one.

805
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:29,000
Another game I wasn't able to watch, but from what I was able to glean,

806
01:23:29,000 --> 01:23:37,000
they were expecting a lot more out of the quarterback, the commanders, Jalen something.

807
01:23:37,000 --> 01:23:38,000
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

808
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:41,000
All I can think is Watson. It's not Watson.

809
01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:42,000
We'll just call him Jalen Watson.

810
01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:47,000
Yeah. But he didn't do well, not as well as expected.

811
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:52,000
And again, the Buccaneers to put up 37 points on man, they were they were doing everything right.

812
01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:55,000
They're taking advantage of opportunities.

813
01:23:55,000 --> 01:24:00,000
So I thought Mayfield had a decent chance of catching on fire.

814
01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:06,000
Yeah. Todd Bowles. I love him as a head coach.

815
01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:08,000
He is. Yeah.

816
01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:17,000
I think that he might have figured out the right coach, offensive coordinator

817
01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:20,000
and the right system to put him in to thrive.

818
01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:22,000
Yeah.

819
01:24:22,000 --> 01:24:29,000
And we'll see. I mean, you know, Washington may not be that good of a team. We don't know.

820
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:31,000
Yeah. I kind of picked him going eight and nine.

821
01:24:31,000 --> 01:24:34,000
You can't pick 500 anymore because there's uneven.

822
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:38,000
That's what gets me. That's another reason they want to go 18. Yeah.

823
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:40,000
They want a nice. They want to be able to.

824
01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:46,000
Well, yeah, because from a gambling standpoint, you could, you know, if the game,

825
01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:51,000
if the team ends up like eight and eight or nine and nine, then it's a push.

826
01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:54,000
And the bookie wins the bet if you pick them to win or lose.

827
01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:59,000
That's right. So having that third option of a tie with the tide season,

828
01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:04,000
the 500 season gives the bookies a bit more of an advantage. Yeah.

829
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:09,000
So I think that's going to make it through no problem with the gambling industry on board behind.

830
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:13,000
Yeah. Yeah. Let's face it, man. That's what half of it's about anymore.

831
01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:18,000
Yeah. All during the game. Here were betting lines showing up at the bottom of the screen.

832
01:25:18,000 --> 01:25:22,000
You know, this player, that offensive line, whatever the over under.

833
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:25,000
It's it's just a big part of football.

834
01:25:25,000 --> 01:25:27,000
They were leaning towards it last year doing that.

835
01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:30,000
Just doing it. It's like, hey, this is what everybody wants. So we're doing it.

836
01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:34,000
Last year was to ease us in. And this year, it's like it's like it's all about you gamblers.

837
01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:37,000
They're even squeezing out the fantasy football players. I know.

838
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:41,000
That was something I noticed. They used to have fantasy stats up there. They don't now.

839
01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:45,000
I think the fantasy football guys are all switching over to live sports gambling.

840
01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:50,000
I think you're right. Yeah. I think if they're going to put that much effort and time into,

841
01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:54,000
they're going to put bets on it. They're not going to just compete against their

842
01:25:54,000 --> 01:26:00,000
you know, coworkers or whatever. I think online sports gambling is it's fast.

843
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:05,000
It's immediate. It's like quick payoff. You don't have to wait till the end of the season.

844
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:13,000
It just makes more sense. All the Missouri guys just think this state line south state line south.

845
01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:20,000
Get your bag of weed in Missouri. Go over state line south. Stone and pick your bets.

846
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:25,000
Because if you're stone, I firmly believe you'll pick better than if you're sober.

847
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:29,000
Yeah. So and the Kansas cops are OK with it because Kansas gets the revenue.

848
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:33,000
Yeah, they get a little deal out of it. They're like, look, man, you get a little this, we get a little that.

849
01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:40,000
We're all happy. So the next one is Rams versus the Lions. Yeah.

850
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:48,000
You pick the Lions 32, 27. I pick the Lions 27, 24. Yeah, it was a six point game.

851
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:54,000
Lions look good. I thought I like the Lions head coach, Dan Campbell.

852
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:58,000
I think Dan Campbell is a hell of a coach. He looks like he could jump in and play.

853
01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:05,000
Yeah, he kind of reminds me of. Oh, gosh.

854
01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:12,000
The guy that used to be the Steelers head coach, the Cowher.

855
01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:16,000
Yeah, he reminds me a little bit of Bill Cowher. Cowher used to play, too.

856
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:24,000
He's a big guy. Yeah. So, yeah, I think Dan is the right right head coach for that organization.

857
01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:28,000
And the Rams are a good team. They lost Aaron Donald to retirement.

858
01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:33,000
But Rams are still a really good, successful team and the Lions handled them.

859
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:36,000
Yeah. Aaron Donald. I mean, I don't blame him for retiring.

860
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:40,000
He was getting hurt all the time. He was just like, you know what? It's time to go. Yeah.

861
01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:47,000
And I think he was getting a lot of attention from the officials every game. He was. He got the reputation of Mr. Dirty.

862
01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:52,000
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know whether that was earned or not, but he got that reputation.

863
01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:57,000
Well, I mean, Vaughn Miller is Reverend, but he was dirty. He was real dirty. Yeah.

864
01:27:57,000 --> 01:28:04,000
And people love him. I mean, actually, you could look back and a lot of the very effective ones

865
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:11,000
of linebackers or defensive ends or whatever are a bit dirty because you have to be. Yeah.

866
01:28:11,000 --> 01:28:17,000
I mean, you have to strong arm people, strong form, get away with holding and all this stuff.

867
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:25,000
So, yeah, so we're both right on that. And then the last one we're both right on, too.

868
01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:30,000
And that's Sam Fran versus the Jets. You had thirty four ten.

869
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:35,000
You're much closer to me. I had thirty three twenty seven. Yeah.

870
01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:41,000
I honestly thought that Aaron Rodgers going to put up a fistfight. I did, too.

871
01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:47,000
In my season prediction, I was counting on Aaron Rodgers being pretty much most of the team,

872
01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:52,000
but it wouldn't be enough. But he just looked like.

873
01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:57,000
Now, he looked bad. I'll just put that he looked bad.

874
01:28:57,000 --> 01:29:02,000
I don't think the team likes him. I don't think the organization likes him.

875
01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:06,000
I think it. I agree with that. The team does not.

876
01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:10,000
It looks like they not only not like him, they disdain him. Yeah.

877
01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:16,000
After that injury right away last season, he did everything wrong.

878
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:18,000
He didn't stick around a route for the team.

879
01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:23,000
He didn't stick around and help the replacement quarterbacks with the game planning and et cetera.

880
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:27,000
He is just like, screw you guys, I'm off doing my own thing for the rest of the season.

881
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:33,000
Yeah. And also, I think that another thing is, is his prolific stuff that he said and did.

882
01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:37,000
I think that the media probably doesn't like him either. Yeah. Yeah.

883
01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:41,000
Yeah. See a little what do they call it?

884
01:29:41,000 --> 01:29:45,000
Little exhaustion from overexposure to Aaron Rodgers.

885
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:47,000
They're like, yeah, we're kind of tired of this guy.

886
01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:51,000
We're tired of propping them up just on the hopes that they'll do something good.

887
01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:57,000
Well, now that he went to New York and he's like really, you know, his first season was completely done.

888
01:29:57,000 --> 01:30:01,000
Boom. You know, got injured third play. That's it.

889
01:30:01,000 --> 01:30:05,000
And now he's 40 years old with a torn ACL, repaired ACL.

890
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:09,000
And no one even knows if he rehabbed it right because he's into alternative healing.

891
01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:13,000
Yeah. You know, did he take a bunch of leucigenics and go, I'm better. Yeah.

892
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:18,000
Or did he do yoga and go on better? Yeah. He's he's shown that he'll lie.

893
01:30:18,000 --> 01:30:21,000
He'll lie about anything. That's a great point. Yeah.

894
01:30:21,000 --> 01:30:26,000
He's lied about so much. No one believes him. Yeah.

895
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:34,000
Man, going to New York and even having that injury season, he could have been the darling of New York.

896
01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:41,000
He could have been like Mr. cheerleader for the team, degraciate himself, do everything right.

897
01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:46,000
But yeah, you saw who Aaron Rodgers is. He's in it for Aaron Rodgers.

898
01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:52,000
Period. Well, you know what? I started looking at some some old someone put this online.

899
01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:55,000
Some of his old press conferences and stuff. Oh, OK.

900
01:30:55,000 --> 01:31:00,000
There's a lot of I, I mean me and not the team. And they pointed this out.

901
01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:03,000
That's why they did this. You can probably find it.

902
01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:06,000
But Aaron Rodgers has always been pompous and about himself.

903
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:13,000
It's just you didn't notice it before. Now you do. So yeah, he kind of got what he deserved.

904
01:31:13,000 --> 01:31:17,000
I think he's going to get many ass kickers because their schedule is not that great this year for them.

905
01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:22,000
Yeah. So yeah, I think.

906
01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:25,000
Aaron Rodgers, I believe, was the one who was quoted as saying

907
01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:32,000
he's more interested in winning player of the year than playoffs.

908
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:37,000
I go back to Kelsey in my homes, sitting out that game where they could did

909
01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:42,000
they could have hit probably some bonuses, a thousand yard bonus for a lot of attention.

910
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:47,000
Yeah. Yeah. Kelsey had his tenth straight. But no, they both sat out.

911
01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:50,000
It's better for the team. Yeah. For the team.

912
01:31:50,000 --> 01:31:55,000
Aaron Rodgers would not do that. He'd go, no, I'm playing, man. I'm getting my bonus.

913
01:31:55,000 --> 01:31:59,000
And that's the difference between a to me, a winner and a loser.

914
01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:04,000
Yeah. Aaron Rodgers strikes me as the guy who

915
01:32:04,000 --> 01:32:08,000
I have no evidence this, but he strikes me as the type of guy

916
01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:12,000
who would place heavy bets on himself and his performance

917
01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:15,000
and then go out and try to meet those. So he'd win his bets.

918
01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:18,000
And who cares? Who wins the game? I agree. A hundred percent.

919
01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:22,000
He strikes me as that kind of guy. He is that kind of guy. I'm pretty sure.

920
01:32:22,000 --> 01:32:28,000
So before we go into the next, you know, predicting the games and everything,

921
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:34,000
a little thing I want to say about the Ravens, the Ravens and how they acted after the game.

922
01:32:34,000 --> 01:32:38,000
It was surprising because they're a well coached team. Yeah.

923
01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:43,000
So, you know, the Ravens, they seem a little pissy after their loss to the Chiefs on opening night.

924
01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:46,000
Yeah. The press conference after was a good indication of this.

925
01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:50,000
Lamar Jackson was asked about the receiver Isaiah likely being over the line.

926
01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:55,000
And he said he didn't believe he was out of bounds. Chris Collinsworth caught it.

927
01:32:55,000 --> 01:32:58,000
Yeah, it was on the screen. It was everywhere.

928
01:32:58,000 --> 01:33:01,000
He can't take everyone's word for it that, oh, yeah, it really was.

929
01:33:01,000 --> 01:33:07,000
Chris Collinsworth said, oh, oh, oh, oh, if he notices it, comment.

930
01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:10,000
I'm not dogging Chris Collinsworth. Some people might think I'm not.

931
01:33:10,000 --> 01:33:14,000
I actually like him. I think he's one of the best ones out there.

932
01:33:14,000 --> 01:33:20,000
If he noticed it while describing the game, then it was blatant enough. Yeah.

933
01:33:20,000 --> 01:33:27,000
And so they had to do a replay. So him saying that to me sounds like a spoiled brat. Yeah.

934
01:33:27,000 --> 01:33:32,000
It's like denying the reality. It doesn't. It's not a good look. Yeah.

935
01:33:32,000 --> 01:33:39,000
I'm wondering how well they're going to do now because of the complexity of how they're of the team.

936
01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:47,000
Yeah. If they can make their peace with this and let it go and realize, OK, he was out and it's done.

937
01:33:47,000 --> 01:33:50,000
But if they hang on to this, no, man, we got robbed, we're screwed.

938
01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:56,000
I'm sure the fan base will do that. But if the team does that, that's a recipe for disaster.

939
01:33:56,000 --> 01:34:00,000
That's bad. That's why I wanted to bring this up with you. You feel like I do.

940
01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:05,000
Isaiah likely said at the press conference, the receiver and the one that was out of bounds.

941
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:12,000
If that's all they got, then I feel sorry for them playoff time. Sour grapes, man. Yeah.

942
01:34:12,000 --> 01:34:20,000
Yeah. Sour grapes. I mean, Mr. Likely, the team who you lost to the last game of the year in 2023

943
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:27,000
and the team you lost to in the first game of 2024 are the same team.

944
01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:33,000
And this is a team that said that you said that about you really want to give them material.

945
01:34:33,000 --> 01:34:39,000
Do you really want to poke the bear? Man, if we meet the Ravens in the playoffs, that's going to be all over.

946
01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:46,000
Everywhere. Yeah. Hey, they thought this was all we had going for us. Let's go out and slaughter them.

947
01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:54,000
Yeah. And I've got a final statement on this. I would say your team in the playoffs and winning is not likely.

948
01:34:54,000 --> 01:35:04,000
Yeah, that's good. Yeah. So yeah, I was surprised, especially Lamar Jackson.

949
01:35:04,000 --> 01:35:11,000
He's usually better than that because before they asked him about revenge game and he said, quite frankly,

950
01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:17,000
it's like every game is a revenge game. I remember him saying that. Yeah. He was so good and getting out of that question

951
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:25,000
and being, you know, not pointing fingers, not saying, oh, we hate them or nothing.

952
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:32,000
He didn't give anything for the Chiefs to work on. And I thought, oh, OK, guy's smart. Yeah.

953
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:39,000
And then he does that after the game. I know you have emotions, but you still have to have enough to be able to go,

954
01:35:39,000 --> 01:35:44,000
you know what? I'm not doing that. I'm just going to go out there and compliment him, congratulate him on the win.

955
01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:50,000
And you're good. Yeah. Yeah. And it's a matter of except he needs to accept it himself that this is what happened.

956
01:35:50,000 --> 01:35:58,000
And this is why it happened. And being angry and bitter about it and saying the wrong things is a bad idea.

957
01:35:58,000 --> 01:36:05,000
Yeah. OK, I've got the 30 worth. I'll see what you want to go to.

958
01:36:05,000 --> 01:36:11,000
I think it's more like 23 worst statements ever by commentators.

959
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:16,000
And then we can talk about how Brady did. Yeah, Brady Tyree kill incident.

960
01:36:16,000 --> 01:36:20,000
Yeah. Chiefs plan versus a Bengals Aaron Rodgers performance.

961
01:36:20,000 --> 01:36:25,000
And then after that, we can go into our predictions. All right. OK.

962
01:36:25,000 --> 01:36:30,000
These are like the 23 or something like that. Worst people did.

963
01:36:30,000 --> 01:36:38,000
They did a poll and they put these statements out there. And this is the people that said are the most that dumbest, most egregious ones.

964
01:36:38,000 --> 01:36:44,000
I love it. I can't wait. The first one is by Brady Quinn. Oh, remember Brady Quinn. Yeah.

965
01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:50,000
When he achieved for a while. I think so. Oh, no. Is that Tim Couch?

966
01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:54,000
Tim Couch, I don't think was ever he might have come in during a training camp or something.

967
01:36:54,000 --> 01:37:06,000
OK, then is Brady Quinn. I think he played like one season and sucked real bad. Yeah. Touchdowns are better than field goals.

968
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:12,000
And water is wet. Breaking news.

969
01:37:12,000 --> 01:37:16,000
That would have been sound is going down.

970
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:20,000
I'm putting on closed caption and turning the sound off.

971
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:25,000
Well, that reminds me of his when Nirvana, the band was first popular.

972
01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:31,000
Dave Grohl was interviewed was interviewed about his drumming and he said, Yeah, it's cool, man.

973
01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:37,000
I learned that if I hit a drum hard, it's loud. But if I hit to at the same time, it's even louder.

974
01:37:37,000 --> 01:37:40,000
And I thought, well, this guy's an idiot. Turns out he wasn't.

975
01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:45,000
But he just had a brain fart moment and said to someone he was trying to come up with that answer.

976
01:37:45,000 --> 01:37:53,000
And he didn't, you know, either that he or he was just toying with the interviewer and trying to trying to wreck his interview by saying stupid things.

977
01:37:53,000 --> 01:37:59,000
But yeah, wow, that's pretty bad. It is.

978
01:37:59,000 --> 01:38:05,000
The Patriots motto is one word, situational football.

979
01:38:05,000 --> 01:38:10,000
Steve Tasker, I can believe that from Steve Tasker. I think I heard that.

980
01:38:10,000 --> 01:38:16,000
I think I remember hearing that and the whole booth went silent.

981
01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:20,000
Can you count the one man? It's like, should I bring it?

982
01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:23,000
No, no, no, no. Let it go.

983
01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:31,000
There's probably something in their contract. You will not embarrass your coworker on air because he will embarrass himself.

984
01:38:31,000 --> 01:38:35,000
Next was by Joe Theismann.

985
01:38:35,000 --> 01:38:44,000
This is a home game. This is where you finally get to play at home.

986
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:47,000
Joe Theismann.

987
01:38:47,000 --> 01:38:50,000
How about quarterbacks are supposed to be smart?

988
01:38:50,000 --> 01:38:54,000
I never accused him of being smart.

989
01:38:54,000 --> 01:38:56,000
I mean, he was a fun guy. He was a fun guy.

990
01:38:56,000 --> 01:38:57,000
He was. I liked it.

991
01:38:57,000 --> 01:39:01,000
You know, any time he spoke on TV, he was fun to watch and listen.

992
01:39:01,000 --> 01:39:06,000
Actually, he was a smart guy, but I mean, he said dumb things. He said dumb things.

993
01:39:06,000 --> 01:39:09,000
Yeah, he'd get excited and he'd just start blurting.

994
01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:12,000
Yeah, he would try to come up with that one zinger. Yeah.

995
01:39:12,000 --> 01:39:15,000
And it would always blow up in his face.

996
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:19,000
He's usually coming up with about 30 minutes too late. He's like, oh, man, I should have said.

997
01:39:19,000 --> 01:39:24,000
Yes. Yeah. It's like, damn it. How can I get the subject back to that so I could throw the zinger in?

998
01:39:24,000 --> 01:39:27,000
And then, you know, he looks dumber trying to bring it back.

999
01:39:27,000 --> 01:39:35,000
One thing you got to give Joe Theismann is like he's in like the top five of horrific on field injuries.

1000
01:39:35,000 --> 01:39:37,000
I was getting ready to say that. Yes. Yep. Yep. Yep.

1001
01:39:37,000 --> 01:39:43,000
That was the Alex Smith injury that he had in the same field, almost the same location.

1002
01:39:43,000 --> 01:39:48,000
I'm telling you, the commanders are cursed. I think so.

1003
01:39:48,000 --> 01:39:51,000
And I think it's because their name used to be the Redskins.

1004
01:39:51,000 --> 01:39:55,000
But they did that with the permission of Chief Whitecaff.

1005
01:39:55,000 --> 01:39:58,000
Yeah. Whitecaff said that's fine. Yeah.

1006
01:39:58,000 --> 01:40:04,000
It's just the overreacting liberal white folks who had a problem with the name.

1007
01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:06,000
You're not kidding. Yeah. Yeah.

1008
01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:12,000
I agree with that 100 percent. The ones that try to act like they're not a certain way, but really are secretly.

1009
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:14,000
Yep. Yeah. Yeah.

1010
01:40:14,000 --> 01:40:20,000
In fact, the advocacy group for the Native Americans, I'm sure there's more than one,

1011
01:40:20,000 --> 01:40:27,000
but the one that's been fighting this has actually filed a suit in federal court to try to get them to change their name back.

1012
01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:31,000
And the team and their new owner said not happening.

1013
01:40:31,000 --> 01:40:36,000
They said they said we might not stay the commanders, but we're never going back to that name.

1014
01:40:36,000 --> 01:40:40,000
Oh, yeah. And the cool thing is the Chiefs can never get that. Exactly.

1015
01:40:40,000 --> 01:40:45,000
Because they're not named after Native Americans. They're named after H. Roe Bartle.

1016
01:40:45,000 --> 01:40:51,000
Yeah. He was the mayor of KC who got the Chiefs there. Yeah. Bartle was a really good mayor.

1017
01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:56,000
And they have Barney Alice Plaza. They have all these things. Roe Boulevard. Yeah. Yep.

1018
01:40:56,000 --> 01:41:05,000
Bartle Hall. Bartle Hall. Yeah. Yeah. He was the mayor and he really started getting Kansas City on the map with some of his policies and some of the dealings that he did.

1019
01:41:05,000 --> 01:41:08,000
His nickname was the Chief. The Chief. Yep.

1020
01:41:08,000 --> 01:41:14,000
And as far as the Arrowhead goes, look everywhere in the creek beds around the KC area. You'll find Arrowheads.

1021
01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:20,000
Exactly. And that was one of the reasons they went with it. Yeah. It's just a very common archaeological find around here. Yeah.

1022
01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:26,000
And everybody, not just Native Americans, used Arrowheads. Yes. Everybody. Yep.

1023
01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:33,000
So nothing ties this directly to Native Americans. Some of the early logos, yeah, those are pretty unfortunate.

1024
01:41:33,000 --> 01:41:41,000
But just the KC and the Arrowhead, there's absolutely no way a court would find that offensive. I agree.

1025
01:41:41,000 --> 01:41:49,000
It's just a dead issue. Yep. But politicians will try to make some pay around that. They divide. Divide and conquer.

1026
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:55,000
I mean, you know, that's how they get in. They divide everybody and hope that they have a couple more votes than the other guy.

1027
01:41:55,000 --> 01:42:01,000
Man, it just, I don't get it why people keep voting for politicians because they're the worst people to have in office.

1028
01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:05,000
Well, notice my shirt today? Yes. Ozzy for president. I love that.

1029
01:42:05,000 --> 01:42:11,000
Yeah. I mean, I always love this shirt, but I think I'm making the statement. Yeah.

1030
01:42:11,000 --> 01:42:21,000
Next one. Meaningless yards are not meaningful. John Gruden. Oh, God. Wow.

1031
01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:29,000
Oh, yeah. I'm trying to agree. Yeah. Sometimes stating the obvious can be kind of a fun thing to do, but.

1032
01:42:29,000 --> 01:42:35,000
It's got to be in the right context. I don't believe this was. Yeah. By the way, it's written.

1033
01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:38,000
It's like one of the things Brady kept saying over and over.

1034
01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:44,000
Well, you just got to tell the Cleveland Browns, man, you can't go forward by going backwards.

1035
01:42:44,000 --> 01:42:49,000
And saying it once was OK, but he said it several times.

1036
01:42:49,000 --> 01:42:57,000
And also, if I was the Cleveland Browns, I would call up CBS and go, hey, you need to listen to your boy.

1037
01:42:57,000 --> 01:43:04,000
Yeah. Tell him to shut up. The Cleveland Browns are one thirty second of the earning power of the NFL.

1038
01:43:04,000 --> 01:43:08,000
Yes. And he was there shit calling them. Yeah. That's not cool.

1039
01:43:08,000 --> 01:43:14,000
I've never heard anyone do that of a commentator. Not anymore. I mean, not since the heyday.

1040
01:43:14,000 --> 01:43:21,000
Will Howard Cosell used to blatantly be against Kansas City. Oh, my God. He used to just like. Joe Buck.

1041
01:43:21,000 --> 01:43:29,000
Oh, yeah. He hates Kansas City. He's up. He's up. Baumgartner's asked the whole 2014 series.

1042
01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:36,000
Hanging his prostate. Yes. But no, Joe Buck grew up in St. Louis and he has a thing.

1043
01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:40,000
You know, if St. Louis doesn't do good and we do good, it pisses him off. Yeah.

1044
01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:50,000
So anyhow, Joe Bucks, I turned the sound down on him and Troy Aikman is the only guy that make Joe Buck look OK.

1045
01:43:50,000 --> 01:43:56,000
Yeah. Yeah. You know, Troy Aikman doesn't say the stupid run on stuff that Romo does,

1046
01:43:56,000 --> 01:44:02,000
but half the stuff Aikman says is just meaningless. Yeah. Generic. I don't care. Yeah.

1047
01:44:02,000 --> 01:44:07,000
Yeah. He's either stating the obvious or going off on some obscure tangent about,

1048
01:44:07,000 --> 01:44:12,000
well, this read on that safety under these circumstances, it's like we're three plays later, dude. Let it go.

1049
01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:19,000
Yeah. Yeah. Monk Troy Aikman. The sky is blue. Oh, thank you, Troy.

1050
01:44:19,000 --> 01:44:26,000
Or no, he go, the sky is actually not blue. It's a reflection.

1051
01:44:26,000 --> 01:44:32,000
It's a reflection of my blue eyes, which are so awesome. Yes.

1052
01:44:32,000 --> 01:44:40,000
And I'm not gay. If you know, you know. Yep. Google it.

1053
01:44:40,000 --> 01:44:46,000
Or as a younger generation, they don't call it Google anymore. They call it search because they use all other different.

1054
01:44:46,000 --> 01:44:51,000
Well, that's true. Yeah. Google as a search engine kind of sucks anymore.

1055
01:44:51,000 --> 01:45:01,000
I know it's not good. Being is much better. I thought I this morning I did a Google search of most common current allergies in Kansas City.

1056
01:45:01,000 --> 01:45:09,000
So I want to know what is common right now. And all of the Google search results are here are the most common allergies.

1057
01:45:09,000 --> 01:45:15,000
Here are the most common food. It's not what you asked. No, I asked for the what's happening in the air in Casey right now.

1058
01:45:15,000 --> 01:45:22,000
And Google. Well, Google will tailor the search results to something that they can advertise.

1059
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:26,000
And then the next day you're going to see advertisements tailored to that.

1060
01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:33,000
Yeah. Tomorrow I'll see, you know, things for air filters to remove the allergens from my home. It's going to be all over everywhere.

1061
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:37,000
They're not tailored to help you. No. They're tailored to sell. Yeah.

1062
01:45:37,000 --> 01:45:50,000
Yeah. Google's because look, I didn't give Google any money to do that search for me. So they're getting the money to do it from the companies who say, hey, whatever they search for, steer them towards our product.

1063
01:45:50,000 --> 01:45:58,000
Just like the GPS, like we talked about before. Yeah. It's going to go to the one that paid them to it could be 10 miles out of the way that higher.

1064
01:45:58,000 --> 01:46:10,000
That's already I don't know if you can patent that or trademark or whatever. That's already several several people inside the industry have said that's already under development is to get the payout from the restaurants or stores or whatever.

1065
01:46:10,000 --> 01:46:21,000
And then change your GPS directions to drive you past it. And then maybe while you're driving past your Google person will start telling you about all the sales going on.

1066
01:46:21,000 --> 01:46:33,000
Yeah, I can see that today is a ham and eggs for 399. And then on a cinnamon roll. And if you don't like that, want to get rid of it. Well, just pay the 1599 a month forever for the premium service.

1067
01:46:33,000 --> 01:46:44,000
Yes. It's another one of those things that they're going to make the regular service so unpleasant that you either got to completely drop it or pay the never ending monthly fee. Yes.

1068
01:46:44,000 --> 01:46:52,000
That's the way it's that's where everything goes. It is. I mean, okay, next and then here in a minute to keep this going. I'm going to go.

1069
01:46:52,000 --> 01:47:00,000
But I'll tell you something about tuning about how they interrupt the program now with commercials and you miss that part of the program doesn't stop it.

1070
01:47:00,000 --> 01:47:10,000
And then right there, as soon as you click on it, it says, hey, you can have our premium feed with no advertisements. So I found a way around it. I listen to everything but tuning now. Fuck them.

1071
01:47:10,000 --> 01:47:20,000
Yeah. The Dallas Cowboys have two kinds of plays in their offense, running plays and passing plays. John Madden.

1072
01:47:20,000 --> 01:47:29,000
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The Dallas Cowboys. I have a I can hear Madden saying that I could do.

1073
01:47:29,000 --> 01:47:41,000
I have two contemplates what they're the only other kind of plays would be kicking plays and those are special teams. So offense is just running a passing. That's two. Yeah. Two things you can do.

1074
01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:50,000
No matter what you do, you qualify to the runner or pass. Even if you do the Statue of Liberty, I think it's what it's called. It's still a running play. Yeah.

1075
01:47:50,000 --> 01:48:02,000
Everything counts as a runner or a pass unless it's special teams. I think the Statue of Liberty has only been done once in the NFL, but several times in college. Yeah. And then that where you hide the football.

1076
01:48:02,000 --> 01:48:13,000
The one I'm familiar with is where the quarterback will go back and raise the football over his head like he's looking to pass and someone runs around behind him and pulls it out of his hand. Yeah, that was it.

1077
01:48:13,000 --> 01:48:26,000
So it's like the Statue of Liberty holding the torch only he's holding the football up and then instead of throwing it, somebody just sneaks up behind him, takes the hand off and runs. It's the the Leroux pitch of the NFL. Yeah. Yeah.

1078
01:48:26,000 --> 01:48:36,000
If you know, you know, being it whatever Leroux. The Statue of Liberty play doesn't I X Leroux. Yeah, that's it.

1079
01:48:36,000 --> 01:48:47,000
That's it. That's it. Okay. Yeah. And any kind of long, slow developing play like that just doesn't work in the NFL anymore. No, no. It barely works in college. Oh, no, they're on to it, man.

1080
01:48:47,000 --> 01:48:58,000
They see that everybody was everybody's too fast. Yeah. Everybody's reflect reflexes and they've been trained to look and react. Yeah, it's just doesn't work. Yeah. So yeah, it doesn't work anymore.

1081
01:48:58,000 --> 01:49:11,000
This next one. I love this one is by Ronde Barber and a high ankle spring is generally higher up than on the ankle.

1082
01:49:11,000 --> 01:49:14,000
Oh, Ronde.

1083
01:49:14,000 --> 01:49:29,000
I like Ronde. He's very first school guy. There was one point when Ronde and Tiki Barber were both in the booth doing color commissary. I loved them. It was wonderful. It was so awesome. You know, brothers is great. Twin brothers is even better.

1084
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:45,000
Twin twin brothers that both had really great careers in the NFL and then broadcasters. And they're both outspoken and outgoing. Yeah, it was wonderful. Yeah, I really enjoyed those two. Oh, Ronde. Yeah. High ankle sprain is higher up.

1085
01:49:45,000 --> 01:50:01,000
If only there were a clue to that. That makes sense now. That's why they called it a high ankle sprain, Topher. Oh, my God. They had me fooled. And you know, I've said things equally as dumb, but I wasn't on TV when I said that's the problem.

1086
01:50:01,000 --> 01:50:19,000
They're on TV. Us, we say dumb. Like, how about me? I got two of the opponents wrong. Yeah, because I wrote them. I typed them down wrong. Yeah, but we're doing it on purpose here to be entertaining. Yeah, this is true.

1087
01:50:19,000 --> 01:50:25,000
All right. This next one is by our good friend Joe Buck.

1088
01:50:25,000 --> 01:50:32,000
You have to do well on third downs.

1089
01:50:32,000 --> 01:50:36,000
That's one of those ones. That's another water is wet kind of thing.

1090
01:50:36,000 --> 01:50:41,000
That's one of those memes on Facebook that says, let that sink in.

1091
01:50:41,000 --> 01:50:55,000
I mean, you could say like, during the course of the game, if you don't do well on third down, you have a less likelihood of winning. But to say, well, it's third down, you got to do well on this down. Duh.

1092
01:50:55,000 --> 01:51:05,000
And these are people that are paid millions of dollars to speak on television. Yeah, Joe Buck has a very handsome contract with ESPN, Disney or whatever. Yeah.

1093
01:51:05,000 --> 01:51:16,000
And it's not like I begrudge them the money they get. You know, they are they're earning. They get paid whatever they can get. But good God, be a little better at your job.

1094
01:51:16,000 --> 01:51:25,000
You're worth every penny that you can get. Yeah, that's all there is to it. Yeah. If you can trick someone into paying you that money or be legitimate, I don't care. You're worth it. Yeah.

1095
01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:41,000
Then live up to it. Yeah, live up to it. Then finally, Adam Archuleta. Yeah. They have a lot of signs around their compound. W.I.N., which obviously stands for win.

1096
01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:48,000
And that's a good one. Oh, no, no, hang on. There's a couple more. Actually, there's a whole bunch more. I'm sorry.

1097
01:51:48,000 --> 01:52:01,000
I remember when Adam Archuleta was playing, the league was starting to make a big deal about the fact that he was one of the few white guys playing defensive back. That's true.

1098
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:09,000
And for about three or four games during one season, they talked about it. And then all of a sudden they shut up.

1099
01:52:09,000 --> 01:52:23,000
And I think somebody told him, quit calling attention to the racial disparity. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Especially when it's in favor of white people. Yes. Yeah. Who was the player?

1100
01:52:23,000 --> 01:52:33,000
There was some player who just recently was complaining about a certain football team and he said there aren't enough black people on the team.

1101
01:52:33,000 --> 01:52:40,000
Who was that? I can't remember who said that, but it was an African-American. Yeah.

1102
01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:49,000
See, something like that is a lot easier to say in public and get away with than if the switch situation was reversed.

1103
01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:58,000
Well, it's like the guy that said that white men should have no say in football at all. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

1104
01:52:58,000 --> 01:53:03,000
When I got the thing about all the white players in football currently and how good they are. That's right.

1105
01:53:03,000 --> 01:53:13,000
I think it was a former quarterback and he was saying that white people should not even be allowed to own teams. Yeah. That guy obviously a nut.

1106
01:53:13,000 --> 01:53:25,000
Yeah. He was looking at the clear majority of black players in the NFL and he wanted to turn that into an all-black lead top to bottom.

1107
01:53:25,000 --> 01:53:32,000
Everyone else is excluded. I'd like to remind him that is not equality. No, that's exclusivity.

1108
01:53:32,000 --> 01:53:37,000
That's what everyone is fighting against, right? Yeah. Or supposedly.

1109
01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:45,000
That's a big trap of people who are complaining about this treatment of the past is if you want to make sure it never happens again, great.

1110
01:53:45,000 --> 01:53:50,000
But if you just want your turn being the bully, then you're an asshole. Exactly.

1111
01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:58,000
I have three more pages of this. Let's go ahead and save some for the next one. Can we take a pause here?

1112
01:53:58,000 --> 01:54:01,000
Sweetly.

1113
01:54:01,000 --> 01:54:05,000
I'm going this way.

1114
01:54:05,000 --> 01:54:09,000
Hey, you see my papers running off? Please go. OK.

1115
01:54:09,000 --> 01:54:14,000
I wonder what these two dullards look like. Yeah, me neither.

1116
01:54:14,000 --> 01:54:22,000
Did you really sit there and listen to all that garbage that was being, do you actually believe one inch of it? I didn't think so.

1117
01:54:22,000 --> 01:54:45,000
Hang on. Game over.
