1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,960
No bag alerts today, but we still have a lot to talk about today folks.

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:04,960
Okay.

3
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:09,040
And it's somewhat of, well, it's not really breaking news because it's already been broken.

4
00:00:09,040 --> 00:00:12,800
It's already been more than 24 hours to really been discussed about it on these other things,

5
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:13,800
but don't care about that.

6
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:14,800
Okay.

7
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:15,800
Don't care about that.

8
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:20,200
There's going to be a light episode after I then gave you guys a banger on Monday.

9
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,680
We're going to keep things light because there's probably going to be another episode

10
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,760
that may come out today or maybe even tomorrow.

11
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:27,760
Who knows?

12
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:28,760
I don't know.

13
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:29,760
Who know?

14
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,320
I don't know.

15
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,080
Bryce Young gets benched.

16
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:34,640
The Ravens lose another game.

17
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,080
The Chargers are on the roll.

18
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:39,000
The Justin Fields experiment continues.

19
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:46,240
My thoughts on the Eagles and the Falcons game and the Cowboys got blessed with an unholy

20
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:47,240
L. Yes.

21
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,560
I'm going to talk about the Cowboys.

22
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,320
It's always a great day.

23
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:52,320
Okay.

24
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:53,480
When the Cowboys get decimated.

25
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:54,480
Okay.

26
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:59,680
If you're ever having a bad day, just know if the Cowboys lose, it just makes everything

27
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,160
a whole lot better.

28
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:02,160
Okay.

29
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:03,720
All of this and more.

30
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:05,200
Okay, folks.

31
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,200
Okay, folks, because guess what?

32
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,200
I told you.

33
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,960
I'm going to try to keep things very light.

34
00:01:11,960 --> 00:01:13,600
I'm going to try.

35
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,200
No promises, but I'm going to try to keep things light.

36
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:20,960
Just know this is going to be a very stat padded type of episode.

37
00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:24,800
You're going to hear a lot of stats being flown around, but just know, guess what?

38
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,000
I'm going to guide you through the entire store.

39
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,000
All right.

40
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,000
All of this and more.

41
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:34,640
This is the 34th episode of the greatest football podcast that you can possibly listen to on

42
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,320
a day to day basis.

43
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:40,480
Whether that means that you are cleaning up your room, cleaning out your car, washing

44
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,000
dishes, whatever the case may be.

45
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,160
I am the person that you want to listen to when it comes to football podcast.

46
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,160
Okay.

47
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:48,160
It's me.

48
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:49,160
Your GM.

49
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:50,160
Okay.

50
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:51,160
The person who is still scouting.

51
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:52,160
Okay.

52
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,200
I have been scouting for the last few months now.

53
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,480
Things have been a little bit rocky, but it's okay because you know, I already got a mock

54
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,800
draft that's already been out, but guess what?

55
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,120
I won't release it to the public because guess what?

56
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:09,280
You guys don't need to know what I am thinking right now because we got football, football,

57
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:10,280
football.

58
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,280
Okay.

59
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:12,280
All of this and more.

60
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:21,360
I am your host, your GM, your chief bagro, your chief head of the table, chief meteorologist,

61
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,920
bagro meteorologist to be specific.

62
00:02:24,920 --> 00:02:29,360
And most importantly, I am just a host with the most.

63
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:30,360
Okay.

64
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:32,400
Kale, you already know what I'm getting ready to say.

65
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,400
So guess what?

66
00:02:33,400 --> 00:03:03,200
I'm going to say one, three, one, two, three, less locking.

67
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:18,040
All right, folks, let's just not wait any longer.

68
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:25,160
Let's get into the meat and potatoes of everything that is going on in the national football

69
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,360
league.

70
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,960
There may be even an episode that may come out for college football this week.

71
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:30,960
Who knows?

72
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:31,960
Stay tuned.

73
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:32,960
You never know.

74
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:33,960
You never know.

75
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,960
Now, we're going to talk about the biggest news that has unraveled so far and that is

76
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:46,680
Bryce Young, former first overall pick Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young has been

77
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:51,280
benched and Andy Dalton will be starting for their next game.

78
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,800
Now, there's a lot to unpack with this situation.

79
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,880
It is a lot to unpack from the situation.

80
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,520
So we're going to, we're going to try to go through everything and you know, just, just

81
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:02,520
go from there.

82
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:08,040
When we look at this entire situation, this was somewhat of a expected move.

83
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:09,040
Okay.

84
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:13,560
And it's not because of, you know, oh man, he's a bust and whatnot.

85
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,120
Let me let, well, actually, you know what?

86
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:19,680
Before I go any further, let me just say this to any of the people that say that Bryce

87
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,360
a bust or anything like that.

88
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:22,360
Let's stop.

89
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:23,360
Okay.

90
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,760
This is a very sensitive moment for him.

91
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,560
This is a very sensitive moment, you know, for the team as well.

92
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:35,200
I've seen a lot of people from Mel Kuiper to Stephen A to various other people that

93
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,560
are saying that Bryce Young is a bust and whatnot.

94
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,640
And I've even heard people say that he's worse than Jermak is Russell.

95
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,360
And I'm just like, no, he's not better.

96
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,040
He's not worse than Jermak is Russell.

97
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:50,160
This is the, and this is something that this is somewhat of an episode I've been sort of

98
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:56,520
waiting to put out, but I just haven't, I haven't had the adequate information and I

99
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,120
was just waiting for the right situation for it to happen.

100
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,960
And you know, this is the curse of the first.

101
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:03,960
Yes.

102
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,920
Better yet, boom, that's the title of the episode right there.

103
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,760
Curse of the first seed.

104
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,560
See, this is, this is exactly why this is the grace football podcast in the world.

105
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:13,560
Okay.

106
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:19,360
What people don't understand is the price of being the first overall picked is most likely

107
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:23,040
you are going to be put in a crappy situation.

108
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,360
Most likely you're going to be put in a situation where there is a lot of dysfunction.

109
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:34,680
Most of the times you are going to be, there's going to be a lack of talent around you and

110
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:40,720
you are basically going to be pushed into the fire and basically told to turn a mud

111
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,880
into golden breaks.

112
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:45,600
That's basically what it is at this point.

113
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:50,160
And you know, I want to paint a picture with you guys, right?

114
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,400
You're being a quarterback where you came from a situation where you had everything

115
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,360
that you need to be successful.

116
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:03,200
You had one of the best offensive lines in college football, one of the best receiving

117
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:08,640
course in all of college football, a good, a really good running back, probably one of

118
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:15,640
the best running backs in all of college football, a Hall of Fame coach, one of the greatest

119
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:21,320
college football coaches of all time as someone that can direct you and show you what you

120
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,760
need to do game in and game out.

121
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,440
Imagine having that, right?

122
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:29,960
And then you go into a situation where you have nothing.

123
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:30,960
You have nothing.

124
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:31,960
Okay.

125
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:40,120
You are in a situation where literally you do not have, you barely have a reliable receiver

126
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,200
to rely on.

127
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,400
You barely even have a tight end.

128
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,760
You barely even have a productive running back.

129
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,440
And that's not even going to the offensive line as well.

130
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:56,160
Let alone you have a coach originally when he was first drafted that, you know, really

131
00:06:56,160 --> 00:07:02,280
didn't really want to draft you, but instead wanted to draft CJ Stroud because he knew

132
00:07:02,280 --> 00:07:07,760
that CJ Stroud was a more NFL ready quarterback than what you were.

133
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,320
Imagine all of this.

134
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,200
And then finally you get benched.

135
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:13,560
That's a lot to take on.

136
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,080
That's a lot to deal with.

137
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,760
And that is what's going on with Bryce Young right now.

138
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:24,760
When we look at this, Bryce Young has, you know, was put into a situation where he were,

139
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,160
you know, his growth was going to be very limited.

140
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,440
Let's just be honest here.

141
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:35,320
You go into a situation where you don't have a lot of weapons, where you don't have a lot

142
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,800
of, you know, potential or any of those things.

143
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,840
Of course, you're not going to be successful.

144
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:42,200
That's for any person.

145
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:47,400
Now there are, now there are some people case in point Tom Brady, who was like the outlier

146
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,480
in this entire situation, but even then he had Bill Belichick.

147
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,720
He had been, he had Bill Belichick.

148
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,880
He always had a really good offensive line.

149
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,880
They always had a really good running game.

150
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,240
He had Gronk and he had Julian Adam.

151
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:04,240
And if not then then he had Danny Amandolo or Chris Hogan or he's had, well, you know,

152
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,240
I actually know that's probably a bad one.

153
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:07,240
That definitely is a bad one.

154
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,720
But I say all that to say this.

155
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:17,360
It is hard and you can't, you can't label him a bust when he was drafted into a bad

156
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:18,360
situation.

157
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:19,360
Right.

158
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,560
And I remember leading up to that draft, you know, there were people that were saying,

159
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,960
Oh, you know, Bryce Young is definitely a really good quarterback this and the other

160
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:27,960
blah, blah, blah.

161
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,480
And I'm just like, I, I didn't see it personally.

162
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:36,280
And it's not because of, you know, his physical, his physical assets.

163
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:40,560
I think it had to do more with, you know, Alabama quarterbacks.

164
00:08:40,560 --> 00:08:45,800
Alabama quarterbacks historically have not been really good quarterbacks when they transition

165
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,080
from college football to the NFL.

166
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,400
They have not been really successful.

167
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:55,880
When you perv example, Mac Jones, Mac Jones was the first round pick.

168
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:56,880
Guess where he is now?

169
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:01,640
He is now a backup quarterback for Trevor Lawrence and Jacksonville.

170
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:02,640
Yeah.

171
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:03,640
Yeah.

172
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:04,640
Yeah.

173
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,000
So you have that.

174
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:12,120
You've now have Bryce Young who is getting, is getting benched.

175
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:19,040
You know, it's, it's that is, that is the, the price that a lot of, you know, that, oh

176
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,280
man, there's so much that has to be said.

177
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:23,880
It's just a nasty situation.

178
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,720
It is Alabama quarterbacks do not transition well.

179
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:32,400
And a lot of times they are some, they have someone of a fall from grace type of moment

180
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:37,880
because a lot of times they are put in a situation where they have the best of the best talent

181
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,760
on, on their team.

182
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:44,160
And then they go into a situation where they're thinking they're going to have that same,

183
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,520
you know, that, that same type of system and they don't.

184
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,280
And then they're barely able to, to flourish.

185
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:56,200
They struggle and then they either become career backups or career journeymen.

186
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,520
That's just that, that, that's just what it is at this point.

187
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:05,120
And you know, when you, when, when you look at the situation in itself, in the way that

188
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:10,600
the Panthers got Bryce Young, it was already a messed up situation from the beginning.

189
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:11,600
Okay.

190
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,240
Let me just tell you before I even get into his stats, let me just tell you the trade

191
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:21,040
package that was given up for the Panthers to get that first overall pick.

192
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:28,680
Chicago, Chicago got DJ Moore, two first round picks, two second round picks and one fourth

193
00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:29,680
round pick.

194
00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:30,680
Okay.

195
00:10:30,680 --> 00:10:35,280
That's what they got for, for the, for the first overall pick.

196
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:40,560
Now let me tell you what happened with those picks that, that Chicago got those two first

197
00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:45,680
round picks, turn into Darnell Wright and Kaylin Williams, those two second round picks

198
00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:47,640
turn into Tyree Stevenson.

199
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,760
Now the second, the second, second round pick, that doesn't happen.

200
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:56,720
That doesn't, they, they, they're just now getting it with everything that hasn't transpired

201
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:57,720
with Bryce Young.

202
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:02,840
That means nine times out of 10, that's going to be a very high second round pick come next

203
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,280
year's draft.

204
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:08,560
And then they also have Tori Taylor, who's a punter, who's supposed to be a pretty good

205
00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:09,560
punter.

206
00:11:09,560 --> 00:11:15,400
Now, when we look at this, Kaylin Williams, somewhat looks pretty productive.

207
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:20,960
Darnell Wright was definitely, you know, productive as, is a productive tackle as well.

208
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,760
So they got all of that and DJ Moore, right?

209
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:31,560
And DJ Moore, who was a very productive receiver, even in Carolina, he was a productive receiver.

210
00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:34,360
And guess what, and guess what the Panthers got?

211
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,760
Just a pick, just a pick, just to say that we have the first overall pick and we can

212
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,200
make the decision on getting Bryce Young.

213
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:48,480
Now mind you, mind you, mind you, mind you, the Panthers for the last few years have made

214
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,080
some of the worst trades that you can possibly think of.

215
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,160
They have trade, they just recently traded Brian Burns to the Giants.

216
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,000
Did they get a first round pick for that?

217
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,400
No, they did not.

218
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:04,360
They traded away all pro, future Hall of Fame, running back and Christian McCaffrey to the

219
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,240
San Francisco 49ers.

220
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:07,800
Did they get a first round pick from that?

221
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,240
No, they did not.

222
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:14,960
They have been horrible with these draft picks and you know, it's come back and it's come

223
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,360
to haunt them.

224
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:22,040
It has because when we look at it, their picks, their last few picks and their last few drafts

225
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,840
classes have been absolutely deplorable.

226
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:31,440
They have been horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible picks, horrible draft classes.

227
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:37,200
No sure you may have your diamonds in the roughs and whatnot as to any team does, but

228
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,760
the fact of the matter is they have not drafted well.

229
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:46,800
They have not been able to surround Bryce Young with the adequate tools in order for

230
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,760
him to be successful.

231
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:55,280
But at the same time, you know, to the people that say, well, Bryce Young is a bus this,

232
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,600
this, that, and the other blah, blah, blah.

233
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:03,560
I get where you're coming from and you may have a point, but this is what I would say.

234
00:13:03,560 --> 00:13:11,600
If Bryce Young was as athletic as a Kyler Murray or he was, you know, as strong as a Russell

235
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:17,080
Wilson who is able, you know, when he was first playing with Seattle, he was able to

236
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,400
roll out and run and do all those different types of things.

237
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,400
We wouldn't have no problem.

238
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:28,600
But because of, you know, but because of the, the situation that he's in and him, you know,

239
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:33,160
only being 5'10 and his arm looks, his arm doesn't really look that good.

240
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,160
He doesn't really look that athletic.

241
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,660
He's very limited.

242
00:13:37,660 --> 00:13:38,660
He's very limited.

243
00:13:38,660 --> 00:13:45,040
And, you know, the situation that he's in right now, all he has is a Deontay Johnson

244
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:52,000
who most likely is going to get traded by the, by the trade deadline and old Adam Thielen,

245
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:56,920
who at this point should probably just retire and Xavier Legat.

246
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:57,920
That's all they have.

247
00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:58,920
They don't have anything else.

248
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,560
I don't even know who, who they're, who they're running back as I think they're running back

249
00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:04,840
is a Chubba Hubbard.

250
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:05,840
That's it.

251
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:06,840
That's all they have.

252
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:07,840
They don't have anything else.

253
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:15,880
And so when, when we look at this, the Panthers are, it's, teams view the Panthers as an easy

254
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,800
W. That's just what it is.

255
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:23,040
They view him, they view them as an easy W. If a team looks at a schedule and it shows

256
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:27,520
that they have to go up against the Panthers, oh, oh, that's, that's, that's going to be

257
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:28,520
easy game.

258
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:29,520
That's going to be Habachi.

259
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:33,960
That's going to be a game where, you know, they can, you know, ball out and, and sort

260
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:38,560
of show, show, you know, why, you know, why they deserve to get paid a little bit more

261
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:42,920
if they're looking for more money or, you know, whatever the case may be, right?

262
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,320
That's just the running joke for the Panthers.

263
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:53,880
And you know, if you're the league, you will want to keep your eye on this entire situation.

264
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,160
But at the same time, you're going to have to step in because this is bad.

265
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:05,160
This is a really bad situation for the league because you're seeing pictures of the stadium,

266
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,160
not even really being filled, barely being filled.

267
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:12,480
You are seeing more empty seats than people in seats.

268
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,600
And from what I've heard, the ticket prices are cheap.

269
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,360
I'm talking about dead cheap.

270
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,680
I'm talking about the cheapest thing you could possibly think of.

271
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:25,960
If you have a date and if you trying to save money, take it to a Panthers game, take it

272
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:26,960
to a Panthers game.

273
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:34,080
You'll probably get some chicken strips and, you know, some large drinks and probably some

274
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,000
nice seats and whatnot for probably less than $300.

275
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,760
I guarantee it.

276
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,120
You could probably look it up right now.

277
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,200
Go on any of these sites you want to.

278
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:48,600
Game time and seat geek or, you know, whichever ones.

279
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,560
That's how bad this situation is.

280
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,800
And they're not bringing in any money.

281
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,840
The team is not good.

282
00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:59,800
Their best player is out for the season in Derrick Brown.

283
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:06,320
What do you have on this team to say, okay, there is, there's some potential, none.

284
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,200
You don't have any.

285
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:14,640
And you know, for the head coach, Dave, David Canalis, he has no ties with Bryce Young.

286
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,200
He has no ties because he did not draft him.

287
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,460
That's not his guy.

288
00:16:18,460 --> 00:16:19,960
He inherited him.

289
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:20,960
Yes.

290
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,280
But that is not his guy.

291
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:30,080
And so now you are starting to see a situation where most likely a transition is going to

292
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,400
happen, a transition is going to happen.

293
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:39,720
And most likely Bryce Young will probably be moved and, you know, put, you know, traded

294
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:40,720
somewhere.

295
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:41,800
I wouldn't be surprised.

296
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,480
I just wouldn't.

297
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,360
But let's, let's get into these stats.

298
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:46,360
Okay.

299
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:59,200
So in 2023, he, his stats were 315 completions out of 527 attempts, 2,877 yards, 5.5, I can't

300
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:09,200
even speak 5.5 yards per pass attempt, 59.8 59.8% completion, completion, I can't speak

301
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:14,400
completion percentage, 11 touchdowns, 10 inceptions, right?

302
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:15,400
Cool.

303
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:23,840
Now let's look at 2024 31 completions out of 56 attempts for 245 yards, 4.4 yards per

304
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:30,080
pass attempt, 55.4% completion percentage and three interceptions.

305
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:35,360
You see that there is a major decline from 2023 to 2024.

306
00:17:35,360 --> 00:17:38,440
And it's probably even worse now.

307
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:45,600
So you can see that, you know, his confidence in himself is, it's shot.

308
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:50,640
You can see that he, he is, he is being ragdoll.

309
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:56,160
He's being beaten up and he doesn't have a, he doesn't have anybody that he can rely

310
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,160
on.

311
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:58,240
He doesn't, he just doesn't.

312
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:03,520
Now there were, there were some times where he was definitely missing, you know, a few,

313
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:07,640
a few of his receivers that were open and whatnot and every quarterback does that.

314
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:15,760
But the fact of the matter is he is struggling significantly and he has regressed significantly

315
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:19,160
and you know, this is not good.

316
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,200
This is not good at all.

317
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:26,480
But you know what, but we're going to go a little bit deeper into this, into the situation

318
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:31,340
because this opens things up for a bigger conversation, right?

319
00:18:31,340 --> 00:18:34,220
So I decided to do a little bit of digging, right?

320
00:18:34,220 --> 00:18:42,160
So according to, I think it was a NBC sports article that they came out recently and they

321
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:48,400
basically did a, did a poll, well not a poll, but they did, they, they ranked the most frequent

322
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:53,920
positions that are drafted first overall quarterback is the number one.

323
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,320
34 quarterbacks have been drafted first overall.

324
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,080
23 running backs have been drafted first overall.

325
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,440
16 defensive linemen have been drafted first overall.

326
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:08,360
16 offensive linemen, five wide receiver slash tight end, five linebackers, one defensive

327
00:19:08,360 --> 00:19:10,640
back have been drafted first overall.

328
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:16,120
Now let's go, let's go even a little bit more deeper into this conundrum.

329
00:19:16,120 --> 00:19:17,120
Okay.

330
00:19:17,120 --> 00:19:21,640
So according to a hembo, if you don't know who hembo is, hembo is one of the producers

331
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:27,920
for get up and he always posts, you know, a crazy, crazy stat that, you know, that they,

332
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:33,960
that he has, you know, the, the, um, the people to, you know, to guess if, you know, to guess

333
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,280
the answer, a lot of times he gets them right.

334
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:41,280
A lot of times they get them wrong, but he decided to do some digging, right?

335
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,880
And he found, he, he found some data that's actually pretty crazy that, that, you know,

336
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,160
could probably open up to other different conversations as well.

337
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:55,120
So this data is from 20 drafts spanning from 2000 to 2019.

338
00:19:55,120 --> 00:19:56,240
Okay.

339
00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:05,240
So apparently quarterbacks have a 46% hit rate, 46%.

340
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,680
I want to say that again, 46%.

341
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:13,440
26 quarterbacks have hit that were drafted in that, that were drafted in the first round.

342
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,800
30 of them have missed in total 56.

343
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:24,880
Do you want to know the position that has a hot, that has the highest hit rate and you,

344
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:26,600
and you probably will be surprised.

345
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:31,280
And it's the one position that everyone says you don't draft in the first round.

346
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,280
Guess what it is?

347
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:34,280
Center.

348
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:38,480
Centers have a 92% hit rate.

349
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:43,360
11 centers have hit only one was a miss.

350
00:20:43,360 --> 00:20:47,760
I want you to think about that for a second, but, but, but I'm not even done yet.

351
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:48,760
Okay.

352
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,960
Cause we're going to keep on going down cause I really wanted to do some research because

353
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:59,720
I, because I understood that this was going to be a very highly talked about, um, you

354
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:01,240
know, uh, situation.

355
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:07,720
So when you look at the first overall picks who made it to the whole fame, Bill Dudley,

356
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:17,040
Charlie Trippie, Chuck, uh, Benark, Paul Hornick, Ron Yari, OJ Simpson, Terry Bradshaw,

357
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:23,080
Lee Roy, Selman, Earl Campbell, John L. Way, Bruce Smith, Troy Aikman, Orlando pace and

358
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,600
Peyton Manning.

359
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:33,120
That's a very small list that were former first overall picks that made it to the, you

360
00:21:33,120 --> 00:21:35,720
know, that made it to the hall of fame, right?

361
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:41,080
And even then let's look at some current players right now that were first overall picks.

362
00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:45,680
Trevor Lawrence is career record right now is 20 and 32, according to stat news.

363
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:54,720
Joe Burroughs career, career record 29, 24, one, Baker Mayfield, 44, 47, Bryce Young,

364
00:21:54,720 --> 00:22:02,880
two and 16, Trevor Walker, 16, 16 and 18, Kyla Murray, 29, 37 and one, Miles Garrett, 47,

365
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,280
54 and one.

366
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,280
That is the curse of the first.

367
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:13,080
That is the cursed most of the times you're going to struggle.

368
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:19,360
The times you are going to have to be the guy that tries quote unquote air quote big

369
00:22:19,360 --> 00:22:25,560
air quotes to try to raise the team up and to put them into a situation where they are

370
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,960
contenders, where they are talked about, where they are popular, where players want

371
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:34,360
to go there and play with you and all those different types of things.

372
00:22:34,360 --> 00:22:35,560
That is the price.

373
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:36,880
That is the curse of the first.

374
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:41,840
Now, when we look at Kayla Williams situation, that's someone of an outlier, but that's

375
00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:46,480
only because of how they mishandled the situation with Justin Fields.

376
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,280
They realized that they messed up.

377
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:49,280
You know what they did?

378
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:50,280
They say, you know what?

379
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:51,280
Guess what?

380
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,000
We're going to do better now that we have the first overall pick.

381
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,840
We're going to do right.

382
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,200
Guess what they did?

383
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:03,480
They made a few moves in free agency, patched up a few holes here, there, everywhere, traded

384
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:08,920
for Keenan Allen, got this person, got that person, got DeAndre Swift in free agency.

385
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,680
So now he's put in a situation where he has a receiving core, he has a productive running

386
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:18,280
back, has a good offensive line, have a productive tight end and cold command and has a good

387
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:19,640
defense.

388
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:24,520
That is how first overall pick quarterback is supposed to be put into.

389
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,080
That's the situation that you want them to be in.

390
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:32,560
Not in a situation where, you know, like the Panthers where, you know, you don't have,

391
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,120
you don't have anything really to show for.

392
00:23:35,120 --> 00:23:39,240
And the players that are there, I wouldn't be surprised if they ask, you know, to be

393
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,880
released or to be traded fairly soon.

394
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:46,280
I wouldn't be surprised because it's just a nasty situation.

395
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:50,840
It's a situation that does not make you want to go into play.

396
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:52,280
It does not.

397
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:53,280
It doesn't.

398
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:54,480
It's a horrible situation.

399
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,280
It's a very messy situation.

400
00:23:56,280 --> 00:24:03,200
Honestly speaking here, but this is the price that, you know, must be paid when you are

401
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:04,200
the first overall pick.

402
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:05,200
And you know what?

403
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:10,160
It even makes things worse because with this upcoming draft class next year, some of those

404
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:14,920
quarterbacks, there's a chance that they might get drafted by the Panthers.

405
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:19,360
And if that happens, that's even worse because then nine times out of 10, they really won't

406
00:24:19,360 --> 00:24:20,720
have anything.

407
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:25,760
So it's like, do you pull somewhat of an Eli and be like, you know, I'm not going to play

408
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:27,920
for, I'm not going to play for that team.

409
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:33,760
If they draft me or what, because I mean that's just, that is a situation.

410
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:38,680
It takes you a good five to six years to like really get some motion.

411
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:39,680
Right.

412
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:45,680
It really is like, okay, they overpaid for Robert Hunt.

413
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,480
Really hasn't, what has he really done?

414
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,720
Other than that, what else do they have on that team?

415
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:52,720
Nothing.

416
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,600
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing.

417
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:56,600
And granted, I get it.

418
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,840
Every quarterbacks are hard.

419
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:04,200
It takes some time and a lot of times when you have a great quarterback and you try to

420
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,320
find the next, the next great quarterback after that, it's hard.

421
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:12,080
You're going to go through a phase where you're going to be, you're going to be missing more

422
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,880
than hitting, right?

423
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:19,640
Because ever since Cam Newton, they've had Teddy Bridgewater, Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold,

424
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,640
who else, who else, who else, who else, who else, who else, who else, who else.

425
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:23,640
Is that it?

426
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,440
Bryce Young, now Andy Dalton.

427
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:29,240
Like they've, they've had a, they've had their own little cycle of quarterbacks.

428
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:36,520
But I think this also opens up a situation where that's why you see a lot of times quarterbacks

429
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:42,480
favor the Kyle Shanahan and Sean McVeigh system a whole lot simply because, and I know, I

430
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,120
know I'm talking about, I know I'm talking about this for a long time, but best believe

431
00:25:46,120 --> 00:25:49,960
we're, we're going to get into other things because trust and believe there's a lot to

432
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:51,040
talk about.

433
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:58,640
But that is why you see a lot of times a somewhat of a resurgence when quarterbacks go into

434
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,600
the Sean McVeigh and Kyle Shanahan system.

435
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:07,120
That's why a lot of their personnel are so sought after once the off season is, is over

436
00:26:07,120 --> 00:26:12,880
with because they see the production, they see the change of what happens when they are

437
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,720
put into that system.

438
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:19,760
Case in point, Baker Mayfield at one point was, was starting to look like a bust.

439
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:23,520
He was starting to look like a career journeyman, right?

440
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:29,920
After, after he was traded from the Browns to the, to the, to the Panthers, he was starting

441
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:31,280
to look like a bus.

442
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:32,720
Then he goes to the Rams.

443
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:36,200
He spent the rest of the rest of the season with the Rams.

444
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:41,040
And after that went over to the Buccaneers, they gave him a trial and then afterwards

445
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:42,440
they paid him.

446
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,000
And so far he's looked pretty good.

447
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,720
Now I'm not saying he looks like an elite quarterback.

448
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,080
No, but he looks like a pretty good quarterback.

449
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:50,080
Why?

450
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:55,200
Because Sean McVeigh, you know, they, they work, they work the kinks out, they fix some

451
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:59,080
things, tweak a few things and they put them back out and he's good.

452
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:04,960
It's somewhat to, to me, they're the Shanahan and McVeigh system is sort of like a rehab

453
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:11,600
for quarterbacks where if you're, where if you are lacking in, in certain areas of whatnot,

454
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:16,960
they have a way to tweak it and to help you be a better quarterback and then put you back

455
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:22,920
out and then, you know, you, you're, you're, you're a whole lot better compared to any,

456
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:24,240
anywhere else.

457
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:30,520
That's why you see so many of, so many, I wouldn't say disciples, but so many people

458
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:36,400
that are coming from those two systems, Case and Point, Matt LaFleur, Clint Kubiak, Mike

459
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:40,680
McDaniels, who else, who else, who else, who else, who else, who else, who else.

460
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,240
I know there, there's so many different people that come from that system.

461
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,520
You would not be surprised, right?

462
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:53,800
And you know, if I'm Bryce Young, I will probably try to see if I can get traded to, you know,

463
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:58,560
to one of those, to, to somebody that comes from that tree, whether it be directly or

464
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:03,840
indirectly from that tree, because you know that you're, that, that they're going to work

465
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:08,840
with you and that they're going to try to tweak the things that, that you're doing wrong

466
00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:17,040
and try to cover your, your, your Achilles heels, so to speak, compared to being put

467
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,880
into a situation and you're not really doing the best and then they just kick you to the

468
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:26,000
curb, you know, two or three, two or three years afterwards, right?

469
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,400
So there's that.

470
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:31,960
That's my whole, that's my whole spill with the whole Bryce Young situation.

471
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:36,600
Now, moving on to the games that have happened because we, we're still playing catch up.

472
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:40,680
And I think, I think we, we, we, this episode, we might be done playing catch up.

473
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:44,680
I think let's talk about the Ravens and the Raiders.

474
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:45,680
Okay.

475
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:50,520
This is what I will say for all the Raiders, for all the Ravens fans out there, I feel

476
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:51,920
your pain.

477
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,440
I see your frustrations.

478
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:57,680
I see all of those things and you have every right to be upset.

479
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:02,320
If you would have told me that the Ravens would be 0 and 2 with two games that they

480
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,440
could have easily won, I would have called you a liar.

481
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:12,160
I would have historically, well, not historically, hysterically laughed in your face because there

482
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:17,480
is no way under God's green earth that they should have lost to the Raiders.

483
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:22,160
And I'm not saying that the Raiders are just absolute dog water and they're boo boo and

484
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:23,160
everything.

485
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:29,120
No, I'm not saying that, but come on guys, come on, come on, John Harbaugh, what are

486
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:30,440
we doing?

487
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,680
You are coaching horribly right now.

488
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,960
The offense looks like a deer in headlights.

489
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,760
It does.

490
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:45,760
This is probably the worst that I've seen from the Ravens in the earlier parts of the season.

491
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:47,200
And granted, I get it.

492
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:52,280
The early parts of the season, everybody's still working through the kinks and whatnot.

493
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:56,760
Not a lot of players played in the preseason and whatnot, all those different types of

494
00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:57,760
things.

495
00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:58,760
I get that.

496
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,200
But come on, come on.

497
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:09,120
Even the stats somewhat show, well, let me just give you, I'll just give you the stats

498
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,200
and then we'll go over everything.

499
00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:19,800
Lamar, 21 for 34, 247 yards, one touchdown, one pick, 7.3 yards per 10 and 81.4 pass a

500
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:20,800
rating.

501
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:28,280
Gardner Mentshu, 30 for 38, 276 yards, one touchdown, one pick, 7.3 yards per 10, 94.7 pass a rating.

502
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:34,840
Now, when we look at things, right, this was a game, a very winnable game that, you know,

503
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:39,760
once again, the Ravens do Ravens things and they shoot themselves in the foot.

504
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,000
Every single time they shoot themselves in the foot.

505
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:48,720
There is no reason why John Harbaugh should have challenged the call for Devonte Adams,

506
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,360
sideline toe tap.

507
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,240
There was no reason because he was in.

508
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,400
You can clearly see that he was in.

509
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,080
So why in the world would you challenge that?

510
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:02,040
Very yet, why would you call a timeout before the two minute warning?

511
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:03,040
Why would you do that?

512
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:08,080
You just wasted two, two critical timeouts that you would need if you was really going

513
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:14,240
to try to march down the field real quick and either, you know, kick a field goal or,

514
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:18,680
you know, try to score a touchdown to, to seal the game and you didn't do that better.

515
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:19,680
Yeah.

516
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:24,960
Why in the world would you have Marlin go up against Brock Bowers and you have a safety

517
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:31,480
and Kyle Hamilton who would be a perfect, perfect dance partner for that, for that matchup?

518
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:35,280
Better yet, let me read you Brock Bowers stats.

519
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:44,360
Brock Bowers was nine for nine, 98 yards, 10.9 yards, 10.9 receiving yards per reception.

520
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,880
I'm going to read that again very slowly so you can hear exactly what I said.

521
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:52,040
I'm going to say it a little bit closer in the mic so you can hear exactly what I just

522
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,040
said.

523
00:31:53,040 --> 00:32:02,480
Brock Bowers was nine for nine, 98 yards, 10.9 receiving yards per reception.

524
00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:07,880
If you, if you would have had Kyle Hamilton on him, I guarantee you he would have not,

525
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:13,840
he would have not had that stat line because Kyle Hamilton is big enough, strong enough

526
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:18,800
and rangy enough to where he can cover someone like a Brock Bowers.

527
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:24,160
What's been their problem, you know, basically since last season is that, you know, they,

528
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:28,800
they try to put a corner like Marlin on a tight end thinking that it's going to do something

529
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:30,120
and it's not.

530
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,360
At this point, Marlin Humphrey needs to be put in the slot.

531
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:38,640
He cannot play on the outside and try to do one-on-one matchups.

532
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,640
He cannot do that at this point.

533
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,880
That's why you drafted Nate Wiggins so that Nate Wiggins can, can do that.

534
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:51,520
You put Marlin in the slot because he is still physical enough to, to, to cover slot receivers

535
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:54,280
and then you have Kyle Hamilton to cover the tight ends.

536
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:59,200
You do that and you shouldn't, you should have little to no problems, but to continue

537
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:06,440
to play this very reserved lackluster play calling is just absolute deplorable.

538
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:07,440
It is.

539
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:08,920
It's just absolutely deplorable.

540
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:13,880
Now I will give the defense a little bit of leeway because the defensive coordinator,

541
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,240
this is his first, you know, his first stint and whatnot.

542
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:21,760
And so he still, the defense is still trying to learn everything and whatnot.

543
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:22,760
And I get that.

544
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:26,320
It takes time, but come on guys, come on.

545
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:27,400
What are we doing here?

546
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:30,280
This is absolutely atrocious.

547
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,560
It was a very atrocious game.

548
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:37,600
It was a game that they could have easily won and then you have the, the bad, you know,

549
00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,920
quote unquote face mask that was not a face mask.

550
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:46,520
Even the people, because I was looking at the game, even the, the, not the journalists,

551
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:51,120
the, the, the commentators was like, no, that's not a face mask.

552
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:52,600
They even zoomed in.

553
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,840
He was nowhere near the face mask.

554
00:33:54,840 --> 00:34:00,640
Now what, now what David Ajaubo did, if that was called, that's definitely a penalty.

555
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:07,400
That is a penalty 100% of the way, but fro, but, but to pull, pull a flag out for Nnamdi

556
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:11,920
uh, Medabookay, no, that was uncalled for.

557
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:17,280
They should have took that, uh, that flag back, but it is what it is at this point.

558
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:24,560
If I am the Ravens, I am playing like my, like my life depends on it against the Cowboys.

559
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:31,120
I am playing like someone has just lit a fire on top of my head because if you don't, if

560
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:36,160
you go on and three, you are putting yourselves in a, in a crater.

561
00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:42,480
You're putting yourself in, in a big, a big hole because you've already lost the two AFC

562
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:43,640
teams, right?

563
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:47,560
So that, that's already going to, that's going to, that's going to come back and haunt you

564
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:51,160
once it gets time for, for seating for the playoffs and whatnot.

565
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:52,160
Cool.

566
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:56,480
If you lose to the Cowboys, oh my God, you are never going to hear the end of that.

567
00:34:56,480 --> 00:35:01,760
You are never, ever going to hear the end of that.

568
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:02,760
Okay.

569
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:08,080
I don't just leave it there because if I don't, there will be specific Ravens fans that will

570
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:09,320
want to come and haunt me.

571
00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,120
So I'm just going to leave it there.

572
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:16,200
Just, you know, stealers are on the field by the way, just putting it out there.

573
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:17,200
Now moving on.

574
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:18,200
Okay.

575
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,120
Uh, let's talk about the Chargers.

576
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:21,120
Okay.

577
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,880
So the Chargers right now have been, have been on a hot streak surprisingly.

578
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,680
So, so far they, they have, they've been, they've been doing their thing.

579
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:30,740
They really have been doing their thing.

580
00:35:30,740 --> 00:35:37,040
So Justin Herbert, 14 completions out of 20 attempts, 130 yards, two touchdowns, one pick,

581
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:44,320
6.5 yards per, per attempt, 70% completion percentage, 23, 23 times he dropped back.

582
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:49,880
Now I see what they're trying to do, which is they're not trying to have Justin Herbert

583
00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:54,600
throw the ball a lot, but when they do, but when they do have them throw the ball, it

584
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:59,680
is, you know, they're getting down to the field, they're making plays and whatnot.

585
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:01,480
And granted it's working.

586
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:05,920
It is working because there was a point in time where Quentin Johnson was definitely

587
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,240
being labeled a bust.

588
00:36:08,240 --> 00:36:14,720
It was, and now he's having this resurgence in his career and it's like, yo, that's what

589
00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:16,180
they've been waiting for.

590
00:36:16,180 --> 00:36:18,720
It's like that meme from SpongeBob.

591
00:36:18,720 --> 00:36:20,200
That's really what it is.

592
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,800
JK Domins, he's having a resurgence in his career.

593
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:28,960
This is probably the best JK Domins that we have seen probably since, since when he was

594
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:30,320
at Ohio State.

595
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:31,320
Okay.

596
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,240
I'm going to give you the last two games.

597
00:36:33,240 --> 00:36:37,040
I'm going to give you the stats for the last two games.

598
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:44,120
17 attempts for 131 yards, 7.7 rushing yards per carry, one touchdown, and he had four

599
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:50,040
rushes that were over 10 plus yards.

600
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,280
Think about that for a second, folks.

601
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:56,280
Now you're the other stats for the other game.

602
00:36:56,280 --> 00:37:03,840
17 attempts for 135 yards, 13.5 rushing yards per carry, and one touchdown.

603
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,560
That is a very productive running back.

604
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:13,220
And you know, for, it also helps that they drafted Joe Alt with their first pick.

605
00:37:13,220 --> 00:37:17,200
You have Joe Alt on once and you have Rashawn Slater on the other side.

606
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,120
That's a really good tackle duo.

607
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:20,120
Okay.

608
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:23,520
That is a really, really, really productive tackle duo.

609
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:28,360
And you know, granted, you know, they definitely caught a lot of flak when they were, you

610
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:33,400
know, when they let go of Mike Williams and they traded away Keenan Allen, but so far,

611
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:34,680
it's looked pretty successful.

612
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:38,080
We're live on the defense, very physical defense.

613
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:44,040
You still have Khalil Mack and Joey Bosa and Durwin James and, you know, a really good

614
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,320
run game in JK Domins.

615
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,920
And then, you know, the quarterback do quarterback things.

616
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:55,080
And that is somewhat of the cycle that we are starting to see in the league now is that,

617
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:56,080
guess what?

618
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:59,720
Teams are starting to go back to relying on the run game more.

619
00:37:59,720 --> 00:38:05,560
They are starting to favor, you know, having a very physical defense, low scoring games,

620
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,200
keep things close when the game.

621
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,040
That's that's sort of the mantra.

622
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:13,200
That's sort of the cycle that we are going back into.

623
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:18,840
And so, you know, that's why you're seeing, you know, players like a JK Domins have these

624
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:20,480
type of games.

625
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,840
That's why that that's really why.

626
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:28,640
And that sort of entails to another team that sort of has that same, you know, mantra as

627
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:30,520
well with with the Steelers.

628
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,560
Yes, I have to talk about the Steelers.

629
00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:33,880
I'm not going to do it.

630
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:37,840
I'm not going to do it because no, just not going to do it.

631
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:41,960
So the Justin Fields experiment continues.

632
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,680
Yes, it definitely continues.

633
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:50,160
Now when we look at things, you know, it is a situation where he gets a where he gets

634
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:58,120
well, not him, but the team actually gets a real life, you know, in real time look at

635
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:04,400
him and how he plays in games, not preseason games, not preseason, not not games where,

636
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:07,520
you know, the starters are not in and this person, that person is in.

637
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:11,800
We're talking about real games that have real effects on if you go to the playoffs, the

638
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,960
Super Bowl, all those different types of things.

639
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,480
There so far he's been playing well.

640
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:23,880
And basically the model that the Steelers are having is play non mistake football.

641
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:29,400
Don't turn the ball over, rely on the defense, have a, you know, have a productive run game,

642
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:34,400
rely on the Titans and George Pickens when the game and it's worked.

643
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,360
That's why they are undefeated.

644
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:44,760
But at the same time, if we are being real here at some point, you know, the offense

645
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,160
is going to have to do more.

646
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:47,840
It's going to have to do more.

647
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:54,880
Now granted, they did beat the Broncos, but I mean, 13 points is not enough.

648
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:55,880
It's not.

649
00:39:55,880 --> 00:40:01,000
You have to put up at least 20 some points in order to be in a really good position.

650
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:05,000
Because if you don't, teams can easily come back and beat you.

651
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,680
And you know, Justin Fields has looked pretty, he's looked okay.

652
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:09,960
I'm not saying he's looked great.

653
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,120
I'm not going to say he's looked amazing.

654
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:16,440
Not going to say he looks like he could be the starter, you know, moving forward and

655
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:19,640
in the future or not, not saying any of those different types of things.

656
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:25,200
All I'm saying is Justin, feel I feel like we should want more of Justin Fields because

657
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:28,960
we know the potential that he has, right?

658
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:33,720
And you know, they have to be, they have to do better with the play calling or whatnot

659
00:40:33,720 --> 00:40:39,000
because that second half of that Broncos game was absolutely atrocious.

660
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:40,840
It was on the offensive side.

661
00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:42,680
It was atrocious.

662
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:48,000
And you know, if the, if the Broncos had a few good, few good plays and they were putting

663
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,720
some points on the board, they could have easily came back and won that game.

664
00:40:50,720 --> 00:40:53,240
I'm just being completely honest here.

665
00:40:53,240 --> 00:40:56,280
And you know, they have to start feeding George Pickens at the ball.

666
00:40:56,280 --> 00:41:01,400
George Pickens is their best option at receivers since, you know, they failed in getting Brandon

667
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,760
and Eulac and other receivers, but we're not going to talk about that.

668
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:05,760
Okay.

669
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:06,760
We're just not going to talk about that.

670
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:12,320
But when we look at things, they have to do better.

671
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:19,560
Now I, I, as usual, I do like to look at the, the Tom and Tuesday podcast because there's

672
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:25,080
a lot of insightful things that he'd be saying on those, you know, on those Tuesdays and basically

673
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:29,800
he's saying for the, you know, for the time now, Justin Fields will be, you know, the

674
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:36,680
starting quarterback until Russ can, you know, properly participate in it practice and whatnot.

675
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:43,600
So which I, which I completely agree on, but at some point, you know, I think it does have

676
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:49,440
to start to make you wonder like, okay, the longer that this draws out, does this mean

677
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:55,280
that, okay, once Russ is healthy, that's when they're probably going to put him in or, you

678
00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:59,000
know, what, what exactly is going on with Russ and his calf strain.

679
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:04,400
They've been very, you know, button lip about it and, you know, it shows.

680
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:09,640
Now the only thing I think that really had me on, not really on pins and needles, but

681
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:14,560
had me confused was them continuing to rotate between Broderick Jones and Troy Fautano.

682
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:21,640
Now Troy Fautano, you know, coming out of Washington was a more refined tackle than

683
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:22,640
Broderick Jones.

684
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,440
Broderick Jones was raw.

685
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:30,000
He was a very raw prospect and they knew they was going to take him some time before, you

686
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:34,160
know, he, he gets to the place where they feel comfortable with him.

687
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:42,080
But I think at this point, I think, I think you have to consider sitting him down because

688
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,700
for one, you can tell that he is injured.

689
00:42:44,700 --> 00:42:49,680
You can tell it and you, it's not an injury that you can, you know, play through.

690
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,240
We originally, he messed up his elbow.

691
00:42:52,240 --> 00:42:54,200
He just had the brace.

692
00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:58,240
And now he's having, but now it's looking like they're putting more and more stuff on

693
00:42:58,240 --> 00:43:01,240
that, on that elbow area.

694
00:43:01,240 --> 00:43:06,800
And it looks like it's limiting him from being able to not only hold up his blocks, but to

695
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:08,520
punch.

696
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:12,600
And you know, you, you can't do anything if your elbow was messed up.

697
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:13,600
You just can't.

698
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:18,680
So at some point, I think it would be best if they was to rest him a little bit and maybe

699
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:26,160
see exactly what's going on compared to trying to, you know, try to see exactly what's, what's

700
00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:27,160
going on at this point.

701
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,920
Troy Fatah Ngu look good.

702
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:34,040
He did, but you continuing to, okay, Troy is out.

703
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,520
Broderick is in, Broderick is in, Troy is out.

704
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,520
No, no, you save that for practice.

705
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,000
That's, that's when you, that's when you do those type of things.

706
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:45,600
You don't do those type of things during, you know, during the game.

707
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:46,600
You just don't.

708
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:53,560
You know, if Justin Fields continues to win games and if he actually gets better, like

709
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:58,520
he has a better stat line and the, the offense is starting to be productive, I would not

710
00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:04,280
be surprised if they make a decision and they have Justin Fields be, you know, the remaining

711
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,160
starting quarterback for the rest of the season.

712
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,240
I just would not be surprised.

713
00:44:08,240 --> 00:44:14,520
So this is still the drama still continues for quarterbacks and with the Pittsburgh Steelers,

714
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:19,280
who knows what will happen, twist and turns, twist and turns, all those different types

715
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:20,280
of things.

716
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:23,200
Now onto the Eagles and the Falcons game.

717
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:27,000
Yes, it was a very good Monday, Monday night football game.

718
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:34,600
It was a game that had a lot of twists and turns, but yeah, Kirk O. Kirk O being Kirk

719
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,920
O that that's, that's just the best way to put it.

720
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:41,960
Kirk O being Kirk O. Kirk O came back and he put on a show.

721
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:48,280
Okay, Kirk Cousins was 20 completions out of 29 attempts, 241 yards, two touchdowns,

722
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:56,200
1117.2 pass rating, 8.3 yards per attempt, a 69% completion percentage.

723
00:44:56,200 --> 00:45:03,040
Okay, not to mention Kirk Cousins was five out of six during that 70 yard touchdown drive

724
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,040
to seal the game.

725
00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:10,480
Okay, Jaylin Hertz was 23 completions out of 30 attempts, 183 yards, one touchdown, one

726
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:17,600
pick, a 88.6 pass rating, 6.1 yards per attempt, 76.7 completion percentage.

727
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:23,160
Now when we look at this, the Eagles were definitely starting to really march down the

728
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:28,600
field when they started to rely on Saquon Barkley and things were starting to look good.

729
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:34,400
And then out of the blue, they just, I don't know for whatever reason, they just stopped.

730
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:37,920
And once they stopped, they messed up.

731
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:41,760
Now we'll say this, that defense does not look good.

732
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:46,920
A defense has a lot of growing pains that they still have to go through.

733
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:50,320
And you know, it's probably going to take them some time like it does for any other

734
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,560
team, but I still have high hope for them.

735
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:57,920
I'm not sleeping on them because they have enough firepower on that defense where they

736
00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:00,320
could make some moves.

737
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:05,920
And granted, for the offensive side, back to the offense, the Eagles didn't have AJ Brown.

738
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:10,680
So they tried to do the best that they can do, which at first they were doing it.

739
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:16,080
They were, but then they decided to make, well, not they, but Nick Siriani started to

740
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:20,840
make stupid decision making and always trying to go forward on fourth down.

741
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:26,160
If you're the first time that they went, the first time they went, they went for, I think

742
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:29,200
it was like they were, they were near the red zone and whatnot.

743
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:30,960
You should have just kicked the field goal.

744
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,960
You should have just kicked the field goal and you would have been, you would have had

745
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:35,560
some points on the board.

746
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:40,240
Prior to trying to go for it every single time on fourth down, this isn't mad.

747
00:46:40,240 --> 00:46:45,080
And this isn't a situation where, you know, you can try to do something crazy and then

748
00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:50,280
get the first down like, no, just kick the field goal, play reserved and just keep it

749
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:51,280
pushing.

750
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:54,360
That's just what you do at this point.

751
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:57,680
And you know, it's, I don't know.

752
00:46:57,680 --> 00:46:58,680
I don't know.

753
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:04,800
It, when we look at this, they, the Falcons got their money last night with Kirk Cousins.

754
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:05,800
They got their money.

755
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:06,800
Okay.

756
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:11,680
Kirk Cousins was doing Kirk Cousins things when they needed him to do it.

757
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:16,080
And so far he actually, he looked a whole lot better, a little bit more comfortable in

758
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,800
this game than what he did in the game against the Steelers.

759
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:24,000
But you know, time will only tell with everything moving forward.

760
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,360
Now, this is what I will say.

761
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:29,080
Uh, Giants, you messed up.

762
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:31,120
You messed up horribly.

763
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:37,960
Because again, the owner said, I would lose some sleep if we lost Seyquan Barkley and

764
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:43,000
you see exactly when it's happened so far with them losing Seyquan Barkley.

765
00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:47,200
I want you to look at the stats for Seyquan Barkley and then look up the stats for Devin

766
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:51,520
Singletary that now plays for the Giants, compare those two and then come back to me.

767
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:56,840
Better yet, leave that in a comment down below on Instagram at, at football underscore junkies

768
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:57,840
pot.

769
00:47:57,840 --> 00:47:58,840
Yeah, let's just do that.

770
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:02,400
Let's go on to the final game to talk about.

771
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:03,400
Yes.

772
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,520
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, the final game.

773
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:10,680
Yes, the Cowboys, the Cowboys doing Cowboys things.

774
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:11,680
Okay.

775
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:14,880
Cowboys doing Cowboys things.

776
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:16,200
Cowboys got decimated.

777
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:17,200
Okay.

778
00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:18,280
They got cooked.

779
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:19,640
They got grilled.

780
00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:20,840
They got pan seared.

781
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:22,360
They got reverse pan seared.

782
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:27,960
They put the thyme and the garlic and the butter in the pan and they started basting it real

783
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:32,040
good, making sure that it was that golden brown color.

784
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:36,760
Let it sit, let it rest for a little bit and then served it.

785
00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:39,720
Serve that hot fresh L. Okay.

786
00:48:39,720 --> 00:48:43,880
They got served with a hot fresh L by the Saints.

787
00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:44,880
Okay.

788
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:45,880
That press card.

789
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:46,880
Yes.

790
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:53,600
It doesn't, all it doesn't fall on, on that shoulders, but I mean, Lord, this is who that

791
00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:55,600
that Saints offense was cooking.

792
00:48:55,600 --> 00:49:00,080
They were, they went in there with intentions of violence.

793
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:02,800
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, fellow junkies.

794
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:03,800
Okay.

795
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,160
That press cards stats are as follows.

796
00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:15,280
27 completions out of 39 attempts, 293 yards, one touchdown, two picks, a 78.3 passive rating,

797
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:20,080
7.5 yards per attempt, 69.2 completion percentage.

798
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:25,000
Now, he was pressured 11 times and he was sacked three times.

799
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:26,000
Okay.

800
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:27,000
Cool.

801
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:31,840
Then we look at Derek Carr, Derek Carr, 11 completions out of 16 attempts, 243 yards,

802
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:39,680
two touchdowns, one pick, a hundred, a 125 passive rating, 15.2 yards per attempt.

803
00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:48,280
I'm going to say that again, 15.2 yards per attempt and a 68.8 completion percentage.

804
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,240
Now here's a little fun fact here.

805
00:49:50,240 --> 00:49:51,240
Here's a little nugget.

806
00:49:51,240 --> 00:49:52,240
Okay.

807
00:49:52,240 --> 00:49:53,240
A little junkie nugget.

808
00:49:53,240 --> 00:49:55,400
I don't know that actually might be a new thing now.

809
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:59,720
See, greatest podcast in the world.

810
00:49:59,720 --> 00:50:01,360
Come on now.

811
00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:05,480
Carr used play action on nine out of 17 drop backs.

812
00:50:05,480 --> 00:50:06,480
Okay.

813
00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,360
At 59, at 59%.

814
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:14,480
The highest rate in nine seasons, in nine seasons.

815
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,600
And mind you, their offensive coordinator is Clint Kubiak.

816
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:22,360
Again, who came, who comes from the 49ers tree.

817
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:24,960
Just saying, just saying.

818
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:33,720
Alvin Camara, 20 attempts for 115 yards, 5.8 rushing yards per carry, three touchdowns.

819
00:50:33,720 --> 00:50:36,880
And he had four rushes of 10 plus yards.

820
00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:43,400
Now when we look at this, you know, the, the, the cowboys where they just couldn't stop

821
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:44,400
it.

822
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,360
They could not stop Alvin Camara.

823
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:50,240
There was nothing that, that they could do to, to neutralize him.

824
00:50:50,240 --> 00:50:53,080
They, they wasn't able to really make a comeback.

825
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:55,800
It was just the saints were just doing their thing.

826
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:57,520
It was one of those games.

827
00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:02,880
And you know, granted, I understand that, you know, the cowboys, they, they got a new defensive

828
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:06,780
coordinator and all those different types of things, but Lord have mercy.

829
00:51:06,780 --> 00:51:08,760
This is absolutely deplorable.

830
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:10,280
This is not good.

831
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:14,840
And you know, the cowboys have to have a rebound game, especially defensively, they have to

832
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:17,680
have a better, a better game.

833
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:23,440
They just have to, because if not, they will be the rotating door, not only in their division,

834
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:26,560
but for other teams that have to go up against them.

835
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:27,560
Okay.

836
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:29,480
It, I, I get it.

837
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:30,800
It's overreaction.

838
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:32,560
It's only the second week of the season.

839
00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:36,880
Everyone is still having their growing pains of learning and all those different types of

840
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,380
things, but good God almighty.

841
00:51:39,380 --> 00:51:42,000
This was a horrible game.

842
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:45,800
This was a horrible game, but I'm going to end it here.

843
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:49,560
I told myself I was going to keep things light and clearly I didn't because we're almost
