All right folks, yep, that's right. It's a victory week. Okay, because you know why you want to know why you might have it turned down your volume because you know why the six time six time six time six time six time six time six time Pittsburgh Steelers did what what do we do we want

2
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:44,000
one number better yet you know what we didn't win we destroyed the jets okay all those jets fizz I was saying oh this is going to be the game for Aaron Rogers to get right there's going to be the game now he now that he got his boys going to be able to do something where

3
00:00:44,000 --> 00:01:13,000
where where where what who when where how why didn't see it I didn't see it I didn't see it we didn't see it we didn't see it yes I'm going to talk my stuff today I've been trying to be humble for these last few weeks but you know what I think I have to just just take a little bit of steam off you know because I see a lot of people talking a lot of smack about the Pittsburgh Steelers but you know what it's okay because you know what I'm

4
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:31,000
going to get everything right with this episode as well as a bad alert that I forgot to talk about what we sort of do have to talk about because that team is going to have to make a decision fairly soon as well as say Kwan gets his revenge just like Michael Myers the

5
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:47,000
commanders crust the Panthers we already knew that was going to happen Hassan Reddick finally returns to the jets the 49ers are struggling the Ravens and the Bucks played last night the Lions and the Vikings that was a great game great game phenomenal game

6
00:01:47,000 --> 00:02:06,000
draw mayos receiving backlash for his public comments about his team and we got to talk about trade trade speculation yes we do have to talk about simply because the trade deadline is only I think two weeks away so we're going to be hearing some stuff we are you're you already know what I'm

7
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:24,000
getting right say here you already know you already know what I always say every single time okay I am your host kale okay your your GM who currently is not on a team right now but don't you worry about it because I got some things cooking in the future

8
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:46,000
okay I'm all these things and more okay I'm your back road drama is your chief chief meteorologist chief bag meteorologist chief head of the table you already know what I'm getting right say okay we got a loaded episode maybe this might be our episode who knows as well as we got to talk about college football later into the week because there's

9
00:02:46,000 --> 00:03:02,000
some but tough conversations that need to be had about college football in some certain quarterbacks all of this and more but don't you worry about that because guess what this is the 42nd episode of the greatest football podcast you can possibly listen to on a week to week day to day basis so guess

10
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:30,000
what on 3123 let's lock in

11
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:46,000
all right folks let's get into the meat and potatoes of everything that is going on in the league okay now I know it's been a while that we haven't talked about college football but I'm going to make it up to you guys because you know I've allowed myself just to give

12
00:03:46,000 --> 00:04:01,000
myself a little bit of a break just watch college football don't really talk about what just watch and yeah don't worry that episode will be coming out this week stay tuned stay tuned stay tuned but don't care about that okay because we got bad alert okay we got a bad

13
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:22,000
alert okay I didn't even do that see man there's so much going on you would not believe it okay so Aline McNeil defensive tackle for the Lions ain't a four year 97 million dollar extension he gets a 10 million dollar signing bonus 28 million guarantee that signing 24.2 million a year and 55 million total guarantees

14
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:51,000
okay now we look at his stats last year 32 tackles five sacks and 30 quarterback pressures now when we look at this right he is somebody and I've been looking at film and all 22 film you know lately he is somebody who creates a lot of pressure right you're talking about somebody that you know once once that ball is like he is he is very close to the quarterback he is getting as close he is probably one of the first people that is that is getting to the quarterback

15
00:04:51,000 --> 00:05:20,000
every single time and mind you he's being lined up you know inside outside whatever he is doing it and he's getting through successfully so you know all in all the Lions have been continuing to take care of their own players and valuing you know their own players so you know all in all his his quarterback pressure rate has actually increased since coming into the league so you know I understand that there's probably some people

16
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:49,000
are saying you know all this is ridiculous contract why they're paying him all this money when you look at the tape the tape speaks for itself more than what his stats will because even though yes it is hard for defensive linemen to to rack up a whole bunch of sacks the way that he's able to create pressure and the way he's able to close to basically collapse you know the the the line and in the pocket that's a lot and not a lot of people can do that on a consistent you know season

17
00:05:49,000 --> 00:06:08,000
to season game by game basis honestly speaking here so you know who's who's to say you know he he may have another breakout season this year I would not be surprised so you know all in all congratulations to him and his bagler now let's get into something that we have to do know why there's a certain

18
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:36,000
you know and there was a lot of people that were saying a lot of stuff you know and trust me I was definitely one of those people that felt you know what I don't think this is going to be the game I had a bad feeling leading to this game but you know what that bad feeling was not real because you know why the Steelers once again do Steelers things so if you guys do not know the Steelers did defeat the jets okay and in doing so this was Russell Wilson's first start now before we go any further before we go into the stats and

19
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:57,000
everything else let me be very transparent I was very I went with Russell Wilson started out I was like this isn't looking good isn't he looks rusty he looks really rusty I'm talking about he wasn't making the throws right and you know it just looked horrible at first but then once he started

20
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:26,000
to get into a rhythm oh man oh man you you talk about somebody who was making plays left and right the play action game was amazing the rollout amazing the deep throw amazing all of the things that we have been looking for and asking more of Russell Wilson did it and he did a very high clip in a very consistent clip which is great now before we get into everything else we do have to give credit where credit is due and that's

21
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:55,000
to Justin Fields because you know Justin Fields and I sort of have to give him his flowers for this Justin Fields has handled this entire process like a true pro you know I've never seen anybody that is able to be very honest and very transparent in his performance and basically say hey listen I know the reason why I haven't been you know I know the reason why I'm getting benched basically because I have been playing my best

22
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:24,000
I have been playing my best that takes a lot that takes a lot for you as a player to admit that listen yes we have been getting the wins but but my performance my personal performance has not been the best to where I wanted to be and that takes a lot you know because granted we had another quarterback you know last year who you know was basically in a tiff because you know he wasn't the

23
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:53,000
the starter and they asked him to be the backup and he said no he didn't want to suit up to be the backup and I remember when that report came out because it was Steelers now it was Alessandro and Derrick Bell and and and and Smitty shout out to to Smitty if you guys don't know Zachary Smith really really great podcast and and what not they were they were probably like the first three people that like was really saying something about it and I

24
00:08:53,000 --> 00:09:22,000
and at first everyone was like no no no no Kenny Pickett was what was you know what was down playing what not but then low and behold it started pick up and there were more and more people that were confirming the story that Kenny basically refused not to do it and you know for for Justin Fields to have this this experience is sort of like a breath a breath of fresh air because he's been professional this entire time you know he hasn't been

25
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:51,000
he hasn't been someone that's been you know having a temper tantrum and you know basically trying to puff out his chest and one that no this is great this is professionalism at its best this is somebody that you would want in your locker room when there's friction when there's tension when there's problems that that is what you want in your locker room you don't want someone like a Kenny Pickett who who walks away from competition who walks away from you know these these skater

26
00:09:51,000 --> 00:10:20,000
these these skater reports that he basically was just like nah I don't want to do it I don't I'm not gonna be a backup nope I want to be the starter so you know but you know what let's let's get into well you know what let's get into the let's get into the quote before we get into the stats let's do that so leading up to the game J. Glazer you know doing doing his doing his thing basically put out you know some somewhat of a well not not a statement but he basically reported on

27
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:48,000
why Mike Tomlin made this decision now right so basically this is what he says and I quote I want to at least see what I have from him exhaust all options and then make a decision down the stretch he said I'm trying to win games I'm trying to win a world title title here I got to see what I have in both and he also said look I went low ranger on this if it doesn't work out I'll take the heat I'll show the I'll shoulder the blame now mind you

28
00:10:48,000 --> 00:11:17,000
Jake laser also mentioned that there were a lot of people within the organization who wanted Tomlin to stick with Justin Fields but Tomlin being the person that he is is thinking ahead which is I'm trying to win a Super Bowl right and he has to exhaust all options at the quarterback position to see exactly what he has which is true which is very legitimate now I understand there are people that are probably saying you know they maybe should have waited you know until after the

29
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:37,000
you know after the buy or during the buy okay and you do have a point but you know at some point you have to make a decision you have to rip the bandaid off Justin Fields has not been playing good since the Colts game since from the Colts game up until now he his best ball

30
00:11:37,000 --> 00:12:06,000
Grannie we were winning but his personal performance was not good enough and so you you sometimes you have to pivot and make a decision just to see exactly okay if this works cool if it doesn't that we can go back to him and you know do whatever so but you know let's let's get into the stats so Russell Wilson dangerous you know was 16 for 29264 passing yards to touchdowns 9.1 yards

31
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:30,000
9.1 yards per 10 in a 55.2 completion percentage okay Najee Harris 21 attempts for 102 rushing yards 4.9 rushing yards per carry one touchdown three rushes of 10 plus yards and more George Pickens nine targets for five receptions 111 receiving yards one touchdown 22.2 receiving yards per reception okay

32
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:54,000
Nehra Rogers 24 for 39276 passing yards one touchdown two picks 7.1 yards per attempt a 61.5 completion percentage breeze hall 12 attempts for 38 rushing yards 3.2 rushing yards per carry one touchdown two rushes of 10 plus yards or more Devonte Adams nine targets for three receptions 30 receiving yards 10 receiving yards per reception

33
00:12:54,000 --> 00:13:19,000
and when we look all this when we look at this and more you know at first yes the Steelers were we're starting out very slow very ugly very sloppy they were but as as time progressed they started to define a rhythm find their stride and it worked right you were seeing production out of Darnell Washington you were seeing production out of everybody honestly speaking here like George Pickens was doing his thing

34
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:39,000
and that fire move may you know definitely one of the craziest catches we've seen you know in a while Najee Harris was doing his thing all levels of the offense were moving and it was great and then on top of that you had the defense as well the defense was you know doing phenomenal as well now granted T.J. Y. and Alex

35
00:13:39,000 --> 00:14:00,000
didn't show up on the statue but their presence and the amount of pressure that they was able to create and the way that they were able to collapse the pocket was great and in doing so it allowed you know for being a bishop to get the two picks that he get and you know everybody else to do what they needed to do which is great

36
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:26,000
now the only problem was Breeze Hall was was giving the team a lot of problems because of you know his ability to double as receiving running back and you know he was doing his thing he definitely was there were there were points in time where you know you would think that this thing was going to get out of hand there was a time of point where that was going to happen but you know the Steelers being the Steelers once that second half came in they locked in

37
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:53,000
they were locked in through and through and you know they they just created you know pressure they was able to make plays and then in doing so the offense was you know positioned to to make more plays and put points on the board which that's all we've been wanting like this this production that Sunday Sunday night's game is what I think Steelers fans have been wanting to see you know for a while now

38
00:14:53,000 --> 00:15:13,000
I think if Kenny Pickett or Mason Rudolph or Mitchell Chibisky if they did just a fraction of what Russell Wilson did on Sunday night they probably will still be here right now most likely but the fact that they weren't able to do it and now you have Russell Wilson who's been able to do it definitely says a lot

39
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:41,000
now pivoting to the jet side the jet side you know we have to have a conversation this falls on Aaron Rodgers again because you have every opportunity to you know do the best that you can do and once again you fail and the first thing that you do is you blame the media saying this is your guys fall in and everything else well let's be real here Aaron

40
00:15:41,000 --> 00:16:10,000
you have one of the best receiving cores in the league right now a receiving core that is a majority of your buddies your former teammates that you play with in Green Bay Alain Lazar Devante Adams you have you know you you have it all you really do so I don't understand what the problem is the time for excuses is gone it's gone okay at some point

41
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:39,000
they have no what not they but Aaron Rodgers has to admit that this falls on me this falls on me that that's all you have to say Aaron if you said that that goes a whole lot further than to just say well this the media is full I didn't play this well and I mean it's always you guys you guys are always you know getting our way no Aaron no that's not what it is and granted I understand the jets you know they were definitely banged up and people started to get it

42
00:16:39,000 --> 00:17:08,000
hurt and whatnot but I mean come on come on you literally handpicked every single person that you wanted on that offense from getting Tyron Smith to you know getting everybody onto the offensive line to getting the receivers that you wanted to play with all those different types of things and look what he got you another loss and as time progresses you know I would not be surprised if there are some players who want out of this situation

43
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:33,000
because why it's a nasty toxic situation all around it's a nasty situation because you have a quarterback who does not want to take accountability who basically has not shown anything he hasn't he has not lived up to the to the hype or expectation you know since they got him he has been a snake oil

44
00:17:33,000 --> 00:18:02,000
and to the jets fan base he has because when you look at it you cannot tell me that a quarterback cannot be productive when you have a want a two headed monster at running back with breeze hall and Braylon Allen you have a receiving core and Devonte Adams Alan Lazar and Malachi Corley and I think there's is a one oh and Mike Williams right you have all of that on the offense then on the defense you

45
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:29,000
know you have Williams Quincy Williams CJ Mosley sauce Michael Carter DJ Reed you have a lot so again what is the problem what is the problem who is the main person in all of this Aaron Rogers the team only goes as far as far as what Aaron Rogers wants it to go that's what it is that's the truth if Aaron doesn't want to go far the team won't go far

46
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:49,000
but if Aaron really wants to put the effort in the guess what's going to happen they're going to go far and even then when you look at former players like Damian Woody and then even you know the former head coach of the Jets Rex Ryan you know come out publicly and basically say like yo that is a team but there's no culture that's scathing

47
00:18:49,000 --> 00:19:10,000
that's very scathing if we're being real here and granted you know they probably have people on the inside that they probably talk to you and hear various different things but you know this just team is it's it's it's sinking it's sinking more and more and more and unless they unless they start winning or figuring out something

48
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:39,000
it is they're not going to make it to the playoffs oh and I forgot the Vonte Adams how does it feel how does it feel to make a decision once again a dumb decision and deciding to choose your friend the friend that left you okay left you you you decided to go back to the person that left you and now look you're salty you're salty you didn't even really have that good of a game you did it you did all of that for

49
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:59,000
what nothing nothing at all so guess what no one's going to feel bad for you because you decided to make this decision there were there there were three other live viable teams that you could have went to that you still would have been the primary option before anybody else and that's the bills the ravens and the

50
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:28,000
Steelers and I'm not even saying the Steelers just because it's it's my team I'm saying that because you know why there is stability there is leadership there is a culture in the locker room there is no leadership or culture in the jet slot it's not because you have Jeff Albright who is trying to piece things together he really is I have to give you know credit where credit is due he's trying to piece things together while juggling many hats he's a defensive coordinator

51
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:52,000
while being the head coach you gave the title will not not even the title but you gave the responsibilities to the assistant or offensive quarter I mean off offensive coordinator it basically made him the offensive coordinator without saying that he is the official offensive coordinator like that's a lot that is a whole lot to take on but again the jets will be the jets

52
00:20:52,000 --> 00:21:21,000
now when we look at Hassan reddick situation you know he's finally able you know he finally going back to the jets finally it took him long enough but he's finally going back and finally reporting to the jets the jets have decided to waive the $12 million in fines which is you know good and I guess they're trying to work through you know an extension and whatnot but you know the fact of the matter is I don't even know if that's a good idea at this point

53
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:40,000
because the season their season is hanging on a string I'm talking about the thinnest string you can possibly find I'm talking about a string that is so thin that the only way that you will be able to look at it is either through a microscope or if the sun is literally beaming on it that's the only way

54
00:21:40,000 --> 00:22:06,000
I mean yes the defense the defense of line as far as the the run defense has been horrible and the bills expose them for it and now we sort of low key expose them for it that's not good that's not good because guess what a lot of the other playoff teams guess what they all have they have a run game now some now some teams run game is a little bit more better than others

55
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:25,000
but if the ravers were going up against that jets defense of line oh Derek Henry is going for 200 yards no question there's nobody on that defensive line other than Quinn and Williams who would be able to consistently stop him and that's being as respectful as I possibly can

56
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:54,000
so again making this move and find Robert Sala it hasn't worked has not worked so far and is going to continue to sink unless somebody in that locker room steps up takes it takes accountability and pushes Aaron Rogers see everybody wants to just you know walk on eggshells around Aaron because we know how sensitive he is and we know that he has pool and all those different types of things to hell with it

57
00:22:54,000 --> 00:23:13,000
because this season can determine especially if you're a free agent this season can determine if you're going to get 5 million a year 10 million a year or 20 million a year but again going to leave that alone now moving on to another team another matchup that I definitely thought was was a really good matchup

58
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:39,000
commanders versus Panthers now coming into this game everybody sort of knew that the Panthers were not going to win this game everybody knew it but let's just get into the stats before we go any further okay so Jadon Daniels was 2 for 2 6 passing yards 3 yards per 10 100 100% completion now before we go any further the reason why is his stature like that is because he got hurt he has a rib injury he is considered

59
00:23:39,000 --> 00:24:03,000
week to week with it they've already said it's not broken or anything but you know only time will tell but Marcus Marriota 18 for 23205 passing yards 2 touchdowns 8.9 yards per 10 and a 78.3 completion percentage Brian Robinson 12 attempts for 71 rushing yards 5.9 yards per carry one touchdown one rush of 10 yards or more okay

60
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:20,000
Andy Dalton 11 for 16 93 passing yards 2 picks 5.8 yards per 10 68.8 completion percentage J. Tavion Sanders 6 starters for 6 receptions 61 receiving yards 10.2 receiving yards per reception

61
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:41,000
Chubber Hubbard 17 attempts for 52 rushing yards 3.1 rushing yards per carry in one touchdown now when we look at this you know Marcus Marriota definitely showed a lot he definitely showed that he still has something left in the tank he did and you know for him to be as productive as he was with Jadon Daniels

62
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:54,000
going down and for that offense to not lose a step definitely says a lot and granted I understand this is the Panthers and this is basically a game for you to you know run up the numbers run up your stats and all those different types of things but

63
00:24:54,000 --> 00:25:13,000
cheese Louise cheese Louise you guys did not put up a fight and granted I understand that team is you know the derives of talent on both sides of the ball it is but you know it's only going to get better before it gets worse if we're being real here

64
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:33,000
now on to another game that we definitely need to cover and we definitely talk about the Eagles and the Giants so Seguin got his revenge he got his revenge he got his revenge you know this is just part one this is just the appetizer of his revenge okay because again for those of you who do not know

65
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:53,000
Giants had hard knocks this offseason slash you know early into training camp and whatnot and so basically there were a lot of the like first few episodes was basically talking about their free agency plans and whatnot and what were they going to do with Seguin and so basically you know there was back and forth between

66
00:25:53,000 --> 00:26:22,000
you know the GM Joe Shane and Seguin and you know for a while you know Seguin was basically saying hey I want to be a giant you know I want to be here all those different types of things yada yada yada and you know the GM basically was like yeah I rather just let you just you know just just walk because you know we were we're not going to pay you this than the other blah blah blah all those different types of things and so you know and doing so Seguin made

67
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:42,000
the decision that he made and he signed with you know the Eagles and so far it's worked it's worked for the Eagles and it hasn't worked for the Giants if we're being real here now granted you know there is there's a there's a running back for the Giants right now I think his name is Tyrone Tracy I think Tyrone Tracy Jr.

68
00:26:42,000 --> 00:27:11,000
He's been doing well he has but I'm sorry I don't care if you have Tyrone Tracy and Devon single Terry on the field they're not going to replace the the the amount of influence Seguin had on that field especially in that offense okay because when we look at it Daniel Jones doesn't even look like the same player okay he does not he looks like he has progressed dramatically and I would not be surprised if you know

69
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:37,000
I would not be surprised if Brian Dabel is trying to figure out okay who was a quarterback that that I can bring in that I can you know build off of and work with because again going back to you know the the the hard knocks you know series for the Giants Brian Dabel was interesting going after Jaden Daniels right and you know Joe Shane wanted to go in a different direction and

70
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:55,000
granted they got my league neighbors who my league neighbors has been you know very productive since being with them but you know Daniel Jones hasn't Daniel Jones has not been productive Daniel Jones has regressed dramatically and he looks like a deer and headlights out there he really does

71
00:27:55,000 --> 00:28:24,000
meanwhile you have Jaden Daniels who happens to be in your own division who is going off who is looking like an offensive rookie of the year and rookie of the year that's what he's that that's how he's playing he's playing for not he is playing out of his mind before he got hurt on Sunday he was doing his thing he was putting up substantial number okay so again it's bad it really it's sad

72
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:39,000
because you know why even the the owner of the Giants went into the GM's office and basically said you know we're gonna have a we're gonna have problems sleeping if we don't find a way to bring back Saquon

73
00:28:39,000 --> 00:29:05,000
once your owner tells you that you have to go you have to go the extra 2000 miles just to make sure that you will prevent him from even talking to anybody else or entertaining signing with any other team because guess what happens he's gonna go and stay in the division he's gonna face you twice a year and guess what he's gonna do run you over

74
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:24,000
and that's exactly what he did Saquon could have went back out and he could have you know gotten more yards and whatnot but he didn't he decided to let the younger players go out there and do their thing which is you know definitely respectable but you know there is there is a lot of questions moving forward with the Giants

75
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:44,000
and you know I think a lot of them start at quarterback and you know what exactly they're going to do at that position moving forward but let's get into these stats okay so Jaylin Hurts was 10 for 14, 114 passing yards one touchdown 8.1 yards per attempt a 71.4 complete percentage okay

76
00:29:44,000 --> 00:30:04,000
AJ Brown 5 targets for 5 receptions 89 receiving yards one touchdown 17.8 receiving yards per reception Saquon the quad yard Barclay 17 attempts for 176 rushing yards 10.4 rushing yards per carry one touchdown 3 rushes of 10 plus yards or more

77
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:24,000
Daniel Jones 14 for 21 99 passing yards 4.7 yards per attempt 66.7 completion percentage Malik neighbors 8 targets for 4 receptions 41 receiving yards 10.3 receiving yards per reception Tyrone Tracy Jr 6 attempts for 23 rushing yards 3.8 yards per carry

78
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:45,000
now when we look at this you know the Giants and I you know do well when they come to scheming up you know scheming up against AJ Brown because they literally had AJ Brown you know one-on-one matchups you didn't have you know a safety over top or you know anything else to help with AJ Brown you

79
00:30:45,000 --> 00:31:02,000
literally just had one corner going up against AJ Brown and guess what happened AJ Brown did AJ Brown things every single time he got the ball every single time now granted Dexter Lawrence has been going off Dexter Lawrence has been doing his thing he really has he was creating a lot of pressure that

80
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:24,000
defensive line was creating a lot of pressure they was but the fact of the matter is the offense really wasn't able to do anything they was it and granted I understand most of most division rival games are very close they're very tight very physical all those different types of things and more I get that but come on guys come on really really it's

81
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:44,000
not good enough it's just not I'm sorry and even then for the Eagles the Eagles don't look as dominant as what people think they were going to be honestly speaking I just feel like you know the Eagles they are still in the bubble to go to the Super Bowl but I think it I think they

82
00:31:44,000 --> 00:32:13,000
rely so much on their stars to be healthy and to be active to play that you know if they're not playing their chances are slim to not and then Jaylin hurts Jaylin hurts does does not I keep on saying it Jaylin hurts has regressed he has regressed dramatically ever since Shane Stiketon has left he has not looked like the same quarterback and it is scary folks it is very very very concerning

83
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:42,000
maybe you know maybe the next head coach that they get maybe they can work on them a little bit and you know try to refine him and bring him back to what he was when when Shane Stiketon you know was there enough but all in all you know it's this Eagles team aside from safe one Barclay you know does not look the strongest it just doesn't but moving on to the 49ers in chiefs match up okay

84
00:32:42,000 --> 00:33:07,000
so this you know what before you know what I'll say that let me just get into the stats let me just get into the stats passionate my home 16 for 27 154 passing yards to pigs 5.7 yards per 10 a 59.3 completion percentage cream hunt 22 attempts for 78 rushing yards 3.5 yards per carry two touchdowns one rush of 10 yards or more

85
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:30,000
no a gray for targets for four receptions 66 receiving yards 16.5 receiving yards per reception Brock Purdy 17 for 31 212 passing yards 3 picks 6.8 yards per 10 a 54.8 completion percentage Jordan Mason 14 attempts for 58 rushing yards 4.1 rushing yards per carry one rush of 10 plus yards or more

86
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:52,000
George Kittle 7 targets for 6 receptions 92 receiving yards and 15.3 receiving yards per reception and I have to put this in just a few just just just two junky nuggets okay Kyle Shanahan is zero for 40 when trailing behind 8 points in the fourth quarter okay

87
00:33:52,000 --> 00:34:14,000
Brandon I you would he is out for the season with a torn ACL Debo Samuel timeline is unknown due to fluid in his lungs and ammonia and CMC is trying to push trying to push to you know make his season debut next week so when we look at all of this and its totality and whatnot let's just be real here okay

88
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:36,000
well you know what I'll do the 49ers first then the chiefs that's what I'll do I'll save them for last the 49ers chances of going to the Super Bowl is over the window has closed it has been locked never to be opened up again okay they have full for one they had a very tumultuous offseason with the whole brand I you

89
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:53,000
Saka you know one minute he wants to be there one minute he doesn't want to be there and whatnot you have the Trent Williams hold out okay cool then once everything is resolved you're like okay cool everything is going to resolve itself and everything you know is good piece and restore

90
00:34:53,000 --> 00:35:21,000
it's back stability all those good things and more blah blah blah but no then Christian McCaffrey is dealing with you know injuries and whatnot and you know injuries have basically depleted this 49ers team it has depleted them of talent and you know if I am John Lynch I think I have to have a real conversation I have to have a reality check with myself and that is I have to offload some of these contracts

91
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:40,000
I have to because why next year they're going to be taking on a lot of dead cap hips we're not talking about no five or ten million dollar dead cap hits we're talking about large substantial dead cap hits and the only way that they're going to be able to to prevent that from happening is that they have to start trading some people

92
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:51,000
now I'm not saying they have to go on a fire sale and whatnot no but you know grave digger I'm sorry even though grave diggers one of my favorite players he really has not lived up to that deal

93
00:35:51,000 --> 00:36:16,000
Debo Samuel you don't know exactly when when he's going to be able to come back and so that right there is a lot and we all know that Brock Purdy needs his needs his weapons to be on the field and if they're not on the field then guess what's going to happen he's not going to be the same Brock Purdy that we've seen for the last two years this team is banged up all the way banged up brand I you look out for the season

94
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:36,000
of John Jennings he's her George Kittle he's her Christian McCaffrey he's her the only way that they will be able to really sort of give their cells a chance is that they trade for a receiver I'm talking about a product receiver someone like a Deontay Johnson or Coral and sudden somebody of that caliber and then they trade for Alvin Kamara

95
00:36:36,000 --> 00:37:04,000
those are the only two ways that they will be able to really start to get the respect back that they they've been looking for and then not to mention you know there was a point in time where Kyle Shanahan's offense was the creme de la creme and you know for the longest time people were trying to figure out how to you know scheme against it and how to beat it and all those different types of things but as time progressed and a lot of the people that were on his coaching staff begin to go to other teams and become a

96
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:32,000
coaches and offensive coordinators and whatnot guess what people were able to see exactly okay how do you how do you pick apart this how you do this okay we're going to run this coverage when we see you know this we're going to run this coverage when we see this formation and all those different types of things and so now what you're seeing is teams are able to now pick apart through the 49ers offense they are and they and they've been able to do it you know now Kyle Shanahan

97
00:37:32,000 --> 00:38:01,000
is is at a point where you know what do you do the run game is isn't as effective as as how it needs to be with Christian McCaffrey like they they need Christian McCaffrey so bad it is ridiculous because they know that without Christian McCaffrey they don't have a legitimate chance like reality check here folks let's really be real here and let's have this real conversation right here right here

98
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:30,000
right now the 49ers and I Super Bowl team the only three the only three NFC teams will for if you if you really want to put them in there and that's pending if they make any any crazy trades or anything the only four teams only four NFC teams that you can legitimately legitimately say that they have a very high chance of showing up in Super Bowl is the Eagles the Vikings the Packers and the Lions

99
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:58,000
those four teams that's it those are the only four teams nobody else in the NFC right now you know that you can say like oh hey they might be a problem now granted the commanders you could probably sneak them in there and if they make you know if they if they do make some trades to maybe show up that deep into a little bit more and then maybe even add another weapon for Jaden Daniels then you can put them in there you could

100
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:27,000
but for right now the Lions they're on a tear right now the Vikings they're on a tear right now the Packers they're the dark horse right now people are sleeping on the Eagles have to get their act together okay those are the four teams that people have to be concerned about for the NFC and you know I understand that the that the 49ers did everything that they tried to do to you know bring bring the you know the boys back together and whatnot but

101
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:56,000
it just has not worked it has not worked and this is a fail and you know all the things that they did to get to this point to be competitive in and whatnot it has not worked and you know it sucks because they had some really great teams they did and for them to not win a Super Bowl pretty heartbreaking but guess what I don't care now moving on to the chiefs okay this is what I will say

102
00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:15,000
about the chiefs the chiefs have been getting by they have been getting by they have not been dominant they have not been this you know crazy team that's just been you know dismantling teams every every every one of their opponents and whatnot

103
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:44,000
no they are not that game they got Patrick my home's got carried to the finish line by the defense if it was not for that defense doing what they did the four of the chiefs would have had their first L of the season and if we're being real here they should have had their their first L a long time ago if we're really being real here this chiefs team they need to make trades for for a receiver they need their other you know all

104
00:40:44,000 --> 00:41:11,000
offensive players to get healthy otherwise they really don't have a chance of making it to the Super Bowl this year I'm just being really this is going to be the toughest year for the chiefs to make it to the Super Bowl because you have the Ravens right now who are on a tear a tear I'm talking about the run they have a top three run game and passing game Lamar Jackson right now is looking like a unanimous MVP

105
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:39,000
I'm sorry that there are people that are probably you know clutching their pearls and you know probably turn off the episode and whatnot but that's the truth that is the truth the Steelers you can probably put them in there you probably could as long as Russell Wilson stays productive and as long as that offense continues to put up some numbers I guarantee you we could be a dark horse there's not a lot of AFC teams that people really have to worry about if we're being real here because a lot of people are going to be

106
00:41:39,000 --> 00:42:00,000
worried about if we're being real here because a lot of teams either just having shown the flash that they've needed to show or they're just you know they just been dismantled by injuries on C speaking here and you know Patrick Holmes has not had a really good season he hasn't so I don't want anybody to mention Patrick

107
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:20,000
Holmes for the MVP I don't he he doesn't deserve this year he does not deserve it he has not played well and granted I understand you know he basically has lost his his receivers and now his most productive is a rookie and Xavier worthy juju and then Travis Kelsey I get all of that but still

108
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:41,000
no and then not to mention when you have a right tackle in Joanne Taylor yes Joanne Taylor who constantly constantly gets away with murder gets away with murder every single time I'm talking about he was putting Nick Bosa in a choke hold almost every single time he

109
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:55,000
he it was horrible it was horrible like and they they don't get called for it but let it be else Oh why are Donys plate holding holding holding holding holding holding holding holding holding holding holding holding holding

110
00:42:55,000 --> 00:43:01,520
holding no no no no no so do I think the chiefs will make it to the Super Bowl

111
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:06,080
this year no do I think they will definitely try to get as close as they

112
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:10,360
can maybe to a FC championship there's a possibility if they make a few trades

113
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:18,840
but for right now nah I don't see it now moving on to the Lions and Vikings okay

114
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:24,720
so Lions and Vikings game was definitely a game that I said a bit before on the

115
00:43:24,720 --> 00:43:28,560
last episode last week it was definitely gonna be a really good game and it was it

116
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:35,160
came down to the wire and you know the rest is history so Sam Darnold 22 for

117
00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:41,720
20 yeah 22 for 27 259 passing yards one touchdown one pick 9.6 yards per

118
00:43:41,720 --> 00:43:47,240
10 and 81.5 completion percent completion percentage okay just to

119
00:43:47,240 --> 00:43:52,800
Jefferson a targets for seven receptions 81 receiving yards one touchdown 11.6

120
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:57,200
receiving yards per reception Aaron Jones 14 attempts for 93 rushing yards

121
00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:03,760
6.6 6.6 rushing yards per carry one touchdown and three rushes of 10 plus

122
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:10,200
yards or more Jaira golf 22 for 25 280 passing yards two touchdowns 11.2 yards

123
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:15,480
per 10 and 88 completion percentage Amon Ross St. Brown a target for a

124
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:19,720
receptions 112 receiving yards one touchdown 14 receiving yards per

125
00:44:19,720 --> 00:44:26,240
reception Jamiro Gibbs fate 15 attempts for 116 rushing yards 7.7 rushing

126
00:44:26,240 --> 00:44:31,720
yards per carry two touchdowns and two rushes of 10 plus yards or more now when

127
00:44:31,720 --> 00:44:35,600
we look at this you know of course it was a division rival game and it was a

128
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:42,280
really good game but you know Jaira golf right now is the second best quarterback

129
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:47,400
in the league right now and he's behind Lamar when it comes to the MVP race well

130
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,840
actually no I won't even say behind I would say their neck and neck right now

131
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:57,240
and the only way that you know Jaira golf could possibly get ahead of Lamar is

132
00:44:57,240 --> 00:45:03,160
if the Ravens start losing games that's the only way as of right now it's it

133
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:07,400
it really is between Lamar Jaira golf and Sam Darno those are the three

134
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:13,040
quarterbacks that I would say right now are in the MVP race and you know this

135
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:16,320
was a really good game from start to finish it was a really good game this

136
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:20,960
line's offense is dynamic it is fireworks they're putting points on the

137
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:26,320
board they are attacking you in the ground game as well as you know in the

138
00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:32,160
air Vikings the Vikings continue to you know they continue to do their thing and

139
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:37,200
granted as I've said before in previous episodes this defense for the Vikings

140
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:43,400
has been phenomenal without an all-pro pass rusher they have a rookie and

141
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:48,000
Dallas Turner who's playing well Harrison Phillips Harrison Smith Brian

142
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:53,560
Murphy Jr. in company and they've made it work and it's worked it's worked

143
00:45:53,560 --> 00:46:00,040
phenomenally so you know kudos to them and everything but you know again this

144
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:04,320
could probably this is probably a preview of what's to come you know once

145
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:09,560
the playoffs come around because I know if it's if this is a matchup again a

146
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:15,320
rematch in the playoffs oh man it's gonna be it's gonna be even crazier okay but

147
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:21,200
we do have to get into a game that's sort of piggy well not piggyback but

148
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:26,800
sort of pivots into what what another conversation that does need to be had

149
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:31,800
okay so before we get talk about the comments after the game well actually

150
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:36,280
hmm no we'll talk about the stats first then we'll get into the comments okay so

151
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:42,280
Drake may was 26 for 37 276 passing yards to touchdown 7.5 yards per

152
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:47,240
temp a 70.3 completion percentage Remondres Stevenson seven attempts for

153
00:46:47,240 --> 00:46:52,560
18 rushing yards 2.6 rushing yards per carry one rush of 10 plus yards or more

154
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:58,320
Hunter Henry nine targets for eight receptions 92 receiving yards 11.5

155
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:04,080
receiving yards per reception okay Trevor Lawrence 15 for 20 193 passing

156
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:10,320
yards one touchdown 9.7 yards per temp 75 completion percentage tank big speed

157
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:17,040
26 attempts for 118 rushing yards 4.5 rushing yards per carry two touchdowns

158
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:24,040
four rushes of 10 plus yards or more geez Brian Thomas jr. five targets for

159
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:29,800
five receptions 89 receiving yards one touchdown 17.8 receiving yards per

160
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:35,720
reception now when we look at this you know this was definitely you know for

161
00:47:35,720 --> 00:47:40,640
for it to be a 930 game it was good it was a good appetizer as I will call it

162
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:44,960
it was definitely good appetizer it wasn't this dynamic you know powerhouse

163
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:49,120
of a game that was you know instant fireworks and whatnot no I definitely

164
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:54,280
believed and was right that the gyroirs were definitely going to win this for

165
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:59,800
sure just because they they have more than what the Patriots do have and you

166
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:04,400
know kudos to them but the main thing that people are talking about more than

167
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:09,520
the game is what Gerard Mayo said after the game and so Gerard Mayo basically

168
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:15,600
said this and I quote according to a New York Times article by Chad Chad graph

169
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:20,440
shout out to him quote-unquote we're so we're a soft football team across the

170
00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:25,400
board that's what he said I'm gonna say that again but I'm gonna say it closer

171
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:31,800
to the microphone he said and I quote we're a soft football team across the

172
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:36,360
board now I understand that every single head coach is different and

173
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:42,320
everybody has a different way of trying to motivate their team what not I get all

174
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:47,200
of that but there's just certain things that you keep you know private to

175
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:51,880
yourself and then there's other things that you may have to say publicly just

176
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:55,560
to try to see if it'll get a rise out of the team and motivate the team to be

177
00:48:55,560 --> 00:49:01,880
better and for you to say that the team is soft soft is a smack in the face to

178
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:06,880
them because let me tell you something the reason why this team is not

179
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:11,880
competitive is not because of the players it is because of Bill Belichick we

180
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:18,440
are now seeing finally all those whiffs that he have had in the past you

181
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:23,840
know in the past his drafting has not been good folks let's be very honest

182
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:29,560
here there have been very few players on that team that have hit and have been

183
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:37,200
productive players honestly speaking and you know Jorad Mayo basically you know

184
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:43,560
inherited a broken Patriots team he did a team that was derived of talent on

185
00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:49,080
both sides of the ball with a rookie quarterback and an inconsistent veteran

186
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:54,400
quarterback that's what it was and you know Drake may basically did the best

187
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:59,920
that he could with probably if not the worst one of the worst offensive lines

188
00:49:59,920 --> 00:50:06,280
in the league and granted his receiving core are full of rookies full of rookies

189
00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:13,600
and second year and maybe third year players so all in all this is a this is

190
00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:18,840
the ugly side of a rebuild you're not gonna win as many games you're gonna

191
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:24,120
get blown out in a lot of games that's what's gonna happen but for you to say

192
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:29,680
that your that your team is soft that's not good even Bill Belichick even

193
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:34,080
threw him under the bus and say yeah I would have never said that like come on

194
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:39,600
come on Jorad that that's not that's not how you win the locker room that is not

195
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:44,960
how you get the trust of the locker room that is not how you do it this is

196
00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:50,400
something that you know they are gonna have to overcome by drafting better and

197
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:54,960
hitting better and free agency because remember there was a point in time where

198
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:59,000
you know a lot of players did not want to go to the Patriots because of the

199
00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:04,160
negative stigma that the league you know that that that was basically around the

200
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:10,560
league which was it's a very uptight very you know quote-unquote non-fun type of

201
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:16,360
place to be sure you may have a chance of winning a Super Bowl but it won't be a

202
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:22,640
very enjoyable process from the coaching to Bill Belichick and and you know what

203
00:51:22,640 --> 00:51:28,360
is required out of him all of that and you know when you have someone like Tom

204
00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:34,720
Brady who sort of softens you know that that the hardness that comes from you

205
00:51:34,720 --> 00:51:39,120
know being with the Patriots sure that benefits that benefits you know when

206
00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:45,040
trying to get certain players but you know time is gone time is gone Julie

207
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:50,040
Elman is gone Gronk is gone all those people are gone so exactly what do you

208
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:55,480
expect right and even for the offensive line what do you expect it's not like

209
00:51:55,480 --> 00:52:02,200
you have scar I can't even pronounce his name Dante scar neck you again you don't

210
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:08,240
this offensive line is not good it is not good enough I would even I wouldn't

211
00:52:08,240 --> 00:52:12,680
even put my worst enemy behind this word the behind this offensive line I would

212
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:17,680
not I would not be surprised and this is a back row drama's prediction this is a

213
00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:22,880
GM with who's currently not on a team prediction right now I do believe the

214
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:26,960
Patriots first pick is going to be an offensive lineman I do I think it's

215
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:33,600
going to be a tackle because they need tackle help badly and this offensive

216
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:40,360
line cannot you know it has to get better because if it doesn't Drake may is

217
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:45,160
gonna get crushed he's gonna get crushed and you do not want that you this is the

218
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:50,840
time now where you build the team up when you have the rookie quarterback you

219
00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:55,360
know on a rookie deal because once you start making big-boy money it limits

220
00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:59,760
everything moving forward so they're gonna have a whole lot of cap space

221
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:03,600
they'll be able to bring in different people but you know when you say

222
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:08,880
something like that it it it's gonna haunt you it may not haunt you this game

223
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:14,000
may not haunt you in the next game but best believe it is going to haunt you

224
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:19,760
and we have to talk about last night's game folks that's right the Ravens in the

225
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:25,480
bucket near the Ravens came into Tampa kicked down the door robbed them of their

226
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:31,760
treasure and their ship and said Sayonara okay Lamar Jackson once again

227
00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:38,440
doing Lamar Jackson things okay so Lamar was 17 for 22 281 passing yards five

228
00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:44,400
touchdowns 12 point eight yards per 1077.3 completion percentage Derek Henry

229
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:52,080
King Henry 15 attempts for 169 rushing yards 11.3 rushing yards per carry

230
00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:57,640
three rushes of 10 plus yards or more Rashad Bateman Batman four targets for

231
00:53:57,640 --> 00:54:03,440
four receptions 121 receiving yards one touchdown 30.3 receiving yards per

232
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:11,760
reception okay Baker Mayfield 31 for 45 two picks 8.2 yards per attempt a 77.3

233
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:17,040
completion percentage Sean Tucker 5 attempts for 29 rushing yards 5.8 yards

234
00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:23,520
per carry one rush of 10 plus yards or more. Kate Oten 10 targets for eight

235
00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:28,520
receptions 100 receiving yards 12.5 receiving yards per reception and when

236
00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:32,800
we look at this you know this was once again a very dominant game for the

237
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:39,560
Ravens it was Lamar continues to be you know Michael Myers Freddie Krueger and

238
00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:46,800
Jason Owen won against NFC teams he just destroys them every single time he goes

239
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:50,960
up against them and it shows you know Derek Henry was doing Derek Henry

240
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:56,280
things the receivers were doing receiver things everybody was just eating

241
00:54:56,280 --> 00:55:01,880
okay last night's game if that's not a game where you can't say that Lamar is

242
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:07,560
is the unanimous MVP as I've said in this episode a few maybe about 10 or 15

243
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:13,960
minutes ago come on now come on now five touchdowns five touchdowns a 77.3

244
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:18,960
complete completion percentage come on now please holly is now we do have to

245
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:24,000
talk about the other side of things which was you know Chris Godwin is

246
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:29,240
basically out for the year where they dislocated ankle and then Mike Evans is

247
00:55:29,240 --> 00:55:34,560
going under an MRI today either today or tomorrow to determine the severity of

248
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:39,720
his hamstring injury you know this is what I'll say the Chris Godwin injury was

249
00:55:39,720 --> 00:55:43,080
definitely preventable there was a period in time where the game was

250
00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:47,960
basically over and so by then you should have just pulled out your starters and

251
00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:52,280
you should have just you know put in put in everybody else like there was there

252
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:58,920
was no need for them to continue to try to go out there to play because all it

253
00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:04,520
did was just put everybody at harm's way and now the Buccaneers are without

254
00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:10,080
their two bless their two and bless two best offensive weapons on that team and

255
00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:15,920
that's not good that's not good at all folks because you know Baker and in this

256
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:20,480
Buccaneers team they were starting to look pretty good they were but now that

257
00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:24,240
they don't have but now you don't know how long Mike Evans is going to be out

258
00:56:24,240 --> 00:56:27,840
for and then Chris Godwin is out for the season and he's an unrestricted free

259
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:34,400
agent man man oh man but this is what I will say about the Ravens though just to

260
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:38,600
just to be very honest here and and I had this conversation with with Moog

261
00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:43,760
earlier this month this morning I would not be surprised if the Ravens

262
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:51,080
decided to get a defensive coordinator next year because the defense was very

263
00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:56,120
lackluster you know towards the end of the game and granted I understand that

264
00:56:56,120 --> 00:57:00,320
that the you know they had the game in the bag but you know the Buccaneers

265
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:06,120
were were low key trying to they low key had some motion they scored 16 points in

266
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:11,440
two drives 16 points they they scored a touchdown got the two point conversion

267
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:16,280
in one and then they did it again like they were very close to starting to make

268
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:22,480
a comeback that's not good see the thing with the Ravens is right now I'm

269
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:26,360
gonna be very honest here Ravens fans I really am I'm just being just being

270
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:30,440
honest not saying this as a Steelers fan or anything like that the two things

271
00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:35,480
that will prevent this the Ravens from going to the Super Bowl is themselves

272
00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:40,800
whether that be play calling or lack of execution or lack of adjustments or

273
00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:47,480
anything like that and injuries those are the two things and you know last night

274
00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:51,640
the defense the defense has to be better the play calling has to be better the

275
00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:58,080
communication has to be better because why if your play calling is not good and

276
00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:02,080
if it's not airtight and whatnot there's gonna be somebody that's gonna pick it

277
00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:05,440
apart and there's someone that's gonna be smart enough to come up with an idea

278
00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:10,680
to counter everything that you're doing so again if you don't do this now it's

279
00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:14,240
gonna come back and haunt you when you know once we start talking about the

280
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:18,760
playoffs and you know the Super Bowl and all those different types of thing but

281
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:22,440
last thing I definitely want to talk about because we are getting into that

282
00:58:22,440 --> 00:58:27,520
season where you know the the trade that line is coming up so these are just a

283
00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:32,760
few players that you know have definitely thought that I think well but

284
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:36,200
forget about that these are some players that I think that you know could be

285
00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:41,280
traded fairly soon fairly quickly Miles Garrett Bryce Youngs Adarius

286
00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:45,920
Deontay Adam Thielen Marshawn Lattimore Cortland Sutton Darius Slayton Mike

287
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:51,600
Williams Garrett Wilson Travis Etienne and Eric Armstead now for Miles Garrett

288
00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:56,680
simply because you know the Brown situation is just horrible they're not

289
00:58:56,680 --> 00:59:01,400
going anywhere and it's just time for him to be put into a more productive place

290
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:06,400
for him you know to have a chance to win simple as that Bryce Young he just needs

291
00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:11,720
to be put in a more productive you know scenario for him to be really productive

292
00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:17,080
and to really have his skills refined and his mechanics so that he can possibly

293
00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:21,360
be another you know a better quarterback than what he is right now because

294
00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:27,000
right now he's not looking the best and you know maybe if he spends a year under

295
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:32,200
Sean McVeigh or somebody under that system maybe he can you know come back

296
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:36,320
out and you know really show something but for right now he has not lived up to

297
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:40,840
that first overall pick Zadaria Smith there's a lot of teams right now that

298
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:45,080
need past pressure help the line them I would not be surprised if the Lions try

299
00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:49,400
to go after either Miles Garrett or Zadaria Smith would not be surprised

300
00:59:49,400 --> 00:59:54,160
at all now for De Yante there's a few teams that really do need a receiver you

301
00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:58,800
know you have the Chiefs you have the 49ers in company that really need

302
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:04,080
receiver help really really really bad okay same thing with Adam Thielen you

303
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:08,440
have a veteran receiver who is still productive who was who was still able to

304
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:13,540
you know to make plays and whatnot low cap hit low numbers which means low

305
01:00:13,540 --> 01:00:18,720
compensation okay Marshawn Latimore you know maybe you he's still a very

306
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:23,400
productive corner you may have to do a restructure you know with what the the

307
01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:27,160
last two years of his deal because that's when the you know the base salary

308
01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:32,440
and the cap hit start to like really skyrocket and whatnot so you know and

309
01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:35,520
then not to mention you know they're starting to hit that point where it's

310
01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:39,400
time for them to go go through a rebuild and you know they try to offload

311
01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:43,440
contracts and you know those those those various different types of things same

312
01:00:43,440 --> 01:00:47,000
thing with Coral and Sutton you know probably is looking for maybe one one

313
01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:51,640
more big payday as well as trying to win again teams will definitely be

314
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:56,280
interested in them but the only problem is though that interest will probably

315
01:00:56,280 --> 01:01:00,800
come from other AFC teams the only NFC team that probably will be very

316
01:01:00,800 --> 01:01:04,240
interesting going after Coral and Sutton will probably be the 49ers in

317
01:01:04,240 --> 01:01:08,680
mind you back in the summer there was a report that came out that you know the

318
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:12,700
Steelers were gonna try to facilitate a three-way trade between them the Broncos

319
01:01:12,700 --> 01:01:17,280
and the 49ers the Broncos were gonna send Coral and Sutton to the 49ers the

320
01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:21,800
49ers were gonna send Brandon I you to the Steelers but of course that did not

321
01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:27,320
happen now Darius Slayton someone who is low risk high reward you know definitely

322
01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:33,000
has upside to his game not someone who is carrying large you know large cap hit

323
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:36,880
and you know very demanding or whatnot probably just wants to be put in a

324
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:41,480
better situation same thing with Mike Williams same thing with Garrett Wilson

325
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:46,320
honestly speaking here you know very talented you know players who are just

326
01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:50,240
looking for change you know and who are looking for stability and who are

327
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:56,400
looking to be put in a better place to be you know just productive honestly

328
01:01:56,400 --> 01:02:00,840
speaking here because you know I I think Mike Williams will definitely get

329
01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:04,920
traded fairly soon I truly believe that Garrett Wilson I think might be a little

330
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:09,280
bit more difficult but you know only time will tell Travis Etienne I think

331
01:02:09,280 --> 01:02:13,120
he's definitely gonna get traded just because they're using tank big big speed

332
01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:18,040
more and I think he's just falling out of the good graces of Doug Peterson but

333
01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:23,440
you know he's still a really productive you know Swiss Army knife and you know

334
