Our brother, AP, Alan Perales. How is it, my brother? i just got one thing to say right now. How about them Cowboys? Ooh.
00:01:39
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You needed a game like today, man. You needed a game like today for the morale of the team. It was a great game. Great day for the team today.
00:01:50
Speaker
Hey, we're going to talk about it. That's a big ass whooping on the board right now. It's a score is currently 44 to 22 with 944 left in the fourth
Impact of Jaden Daniels' Injury?
00:02:02
Speaker
quarter. So this game is um so ah for all intents and purposes is completely over and Jaden Daniels is injured. So probably no chance for the commanders to come back in this one, but we know what else we're going to talk about today. And I guess dirty mojo might've been a little scared,
00:02:18
Speaker
of his Falcons having to go up against Clever D's 49ers. Because he didn't show up today, Clever D. What's going on? don't know. I wish it wish you told me so I didn't put it on my um on my YouTube post saying over a Falcons fan and a Niners fan are to break down the the the game prior. But, you know, communication is not always good sometimes with certain people. You know, we don't have all cell phones things like that. But that's okay, Lamar.
00:02:39
Speaker
That's okay. You got your payback. for Omar throwing shots, okay, because he got dubbed today, just like y'all did by the Panthers couple weeks ago. So that did happen. Just putting that out there, Omar. I hate you know, throw that little salt on the weed right there, but I remember you do you threw shots at him week. I did.
00:02:55
Speaker
I did. It is well-deserved, well-deserved. And then for our special guest, AP, again, thank

Bengals vs Steelers Recap
00:05:43
Speaker
Booty Juice Basuda Games this morning. But first, we will talk about the game from Thursday. Yes,
00:05:53
Speaker
31-33. Bengals win at home. a Really big loss for the Steelers here. It's not so much about the Bengals, although this is good that Flacco was able to lead them to a win because, ah you know, maybe possibly they can turn it around at 3-4 or hold serve till Joe Burrow gets back.
00:06:19
Speaker
On the other hand, though, for the Steelers, A huge loss here to lose this game and go to four and two You really wanted to keep a stranglehold in that division. And now with the Bengals getting this win, right now they currently would own that tiebreaker if they were to go into the tiebreaker.
00:06:37
Speaker
So we'll start with our special guest. Thank you for joining us today. AP, what do you think about this Thursday night game we have? And for the AAR people, this was a pretty good matchup. I mean, two quarterbacks over 40 years old, still proving that they can go out there and sling it.
00:06:54
Speaker
Great game. Great game by both sides. Yeah, Pittsburgh needed to get the win here. Obviously, you need to take advantage of what's going on in your division right now. The Browns are the Browns.
00:07:07
Speaker
Ravens not playing great right now. Lamar still out. And, of course, Joe Burrow out for the Bengals. um And as for Joe Flacco, you've got two of the better wide receivers in the NFL. All you have to do is just throw it up and let them go get it.
00:07:19
Speaker
And that's exact that's exact what that's exactly what Joe Flacco did. He understood the assignment. And what goes on notice is what a night for Chase Brown. Probably his best performance, maybe in a Bengals uniform since he came into the league. so um Very nice.
00:07:37
Speaker
Very and unsung hero from Thursday night, Chase Brown having himself a game as well. So Bengals get the late field goal to win at home. They definitely needed it. And if you're if you're the Bengals, you kind of feel pretty confident that if you can rattle off a couple wins here, you get a pretty light schedule throughout the next couple months. If you can keep it going until Joe Burrow comes back, you like your chances in maybe getting a wild card here.
00:08:04
Speaker
yeah I mean, that's crazy, right? could be Because just a few weeks ago, Colbert we thought that ah the Bengals season was ostensibly over because of the injury to Burrow. I mean, just you can see the saltiness in Mike Tallman's tone. I was waiting for somebody. You know, trading away someone who's ah good enough to start for you, and they're going to trade him away.
00:08:26
Speaker
i mean, I'll be mad too, and I'll be pissed, but but Mike Tallman, I hate to say it, be mad yourself. You're like owen eight now on Thursday night football. Whatever whateverever voodoo curse they have on you on Thursday night, you got figure that out, you know. Jump the broomstick, broomstick, eat the chicken's foot. do what you got to do to win on Thursday night because that was the game they should won, and they just weren't adapting. You saw Jamar Chase ran the same play twice, and Joe Flacco just eating up because the defense wasn't adjusting. So, and you know, I don't think it's over for the Steelers. I just think that they do need ah to start adjusting certain things, especially on defense.
00:08:59
Speaker
um But, yeah, that was wild that Flacco did that. I was just, damn, man, I know both of them are hurt being over 40 years old. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, the day they went straight to the
Miami Dolphins' Season Woes?
00:09:11
Speaker
ice tub, and they had work done all night and all week long. But no, as you mentioned, right, Flacco, only a second game in Cincinnati, 342 yards, three touchdowns. You talked about Jamar Chase.
00:09:23
Speaker
taking the field off the defense twice for a franchise record, 16 receptions, 161 yards, and a TD making him your professor's fun fact here, the fourth receiver in NFL history with two games of at least 14 catches in a single season.
00:09:40
Speaker
How about that? um The Bengals also scored on seven of their last eight possessions, which is very important for a team that's trying to get into the groove. And you're right, AP, Chase Brown, best game thus far of the year when everybody thought he was going to you know continue from where he left off last year. He's had a little bit of a sophomore slump. up until this point, 108 rushing yards on only 11 carries is pretty good for his second 100 rushing yard game of his career. Yeah, it's not over for the Steelers, cleverty but I do think that it is a bad win for them because I think that, again, it it comes down to ah the tiebreaker. And as AP mentioned, if they can hold serve until Burrow gets back, that could change the tide completely here in the AFC North. And then we still got...
00:10:29
Speaker
Well, as mentioned, you mentioned AP Lamar Jackson and what is going to happen there as well. So the AFC North completely up in the air as of now.
00:10:40
Speaker
We will, as always, um you know, let you know. how Yes, that's right. That's right. ah Thursday was the Unk Bowl. Ain't that the truth? It was out there. got they bit Somebody i said sponsored by Bengay. I think it was Bobby G. Bengay, Menemucil, AARP.
00:11:00
Speaker
Yeah, yeah. so i mean ah But, yeah, thirty three thirty one Again, that's the game we're talking me we're talking about. Bengals versus Steelers. Any final thoughts on this game here, gentlemen? I mean, it just ah makes that division more exciting. You know, we all wrote off the Bengals, but now everyone's going to be tuned in to see if that's just a fluke game, just like a Thursday at Jinx, or is that the real Bengals moving forward until Bill gets back?
00:11:24
Speaker
I like it. All right, let's check out the the early sketch or the schedule for today. We're not going to go through all these games because a lot of games were booty juice basuda. ah So what I'm going to do is I'm just going to list off a few games here, gentlemen, the ones that we're not going to discuss in length.
00:11:39
Speaker
And if you have any thoughts on any of them, you're just give them to me But let me list them out real quick. because there's no point really talking about these blowouts and crappy games. First of all, the early game ah in London. i don't know why they keep doing this. They might as well just put a team out there so they're not jet-lagged every week going out there and playing these sloppy, crappy games. 35-7 Rams over Jaguars.
00:12:01
Speaker
We also had um the Patriots 31-13 over the Titans. had the Browns over the Dolphins. You had the Bears 31-6. thirty one to six over the dolphins you had the bears 26-14 over the Saints.
00:12:16
Speaker
You had the, um and finally you had the the Booty Juice a Award of the Week game goes to the Panthers over the Jets. thirteen to six By God, as Jim Ross would say, what a horrible game that was.
00:12:34
Speaker
oh and seven is what the Jets moved to. Cleber D, do you have any thoughts on these horrible starting ah early? I'd say, you know, um the Jets game, I was actually peeping the game a little bit, and they finally benched Fields, which, you know, it was a long time coming. I was happy to see Tyrod, because I'm a big Hokie fan. He's one of my favorite Hokie quarterbacks, but he underthrew two crucial passes, like, back-to-back, and couldn't throw on J.C. Horn, and I was like, bro, he intercepted you twice. Like, it's, what are you doing, Tyrod? But, um,
00:13:04
Speaker
The Jets, they're close in of these games, like the Broncos game last week. They're close. Their defense is keeping them in winning situations. Just offense is just terrible. I mean, ah my my high school, we just had our 25th year reunion this weekend, and and a shout out to the Whitbridge Vikings, and we beat Freedom 72 to nothing on Friday, okay?
00:13:25
Speaker
That was better offense than what I saw the Jets today. It's just terrible. But, yes. Yeah, were really really early blowouts and booty juice games. AP, do you have anything on any of these bad games?
00:13:39
Speaker
I mean, what's going on in Miami? How do you give up 31 points for the Browns? Like, lozers you come out you come out last week, you show life, you you feel like you're one score away from winning on ah on a Monday night, and then...
00:13:57
Speaker
Don't even bother showing up in Cleveland. Like, I know the Browns' defense is great. They're a great defense. I got to give Cleveland props because they finally listened to the fan base, and the fan base has been saying, give it to Quinshawn Junkins, please.
00:14:15
Speaker
yeah Run the damn ball. They finally did it today, and Quinshawn had a monster game. Yeah, Dolphins are trash. Jets are trash.
00:14:27
Speaker
I think I got some for your for your the Dolphins. The reason why two things. One, Tua called the team out last week when he used to put, you know, people showing up late, whatever, whatever. I know that's going really something, but ah Mike McDonald, disciple of Kyle Shanahan, Jim Swartz's defenses always give Kyle Shanahan's offenses trouble.
00:14:49
Speaker
So think that kind of was with it, too. That's the only thing I could think of besides just Miami being Miami. Yeah. ah ah I mean, to be completely honest, though, this is not what we expected. This fall from grace of the Miami Dolphins is, I mean, just last year, they were a 9-10 win team. The year before that, they were eleven twelve win team.
00:15:08
Speaker
um You know, so, hey, shout out Bobby G, the tribal chief of – Sports and Entertainment Podcasting. We appreciate you, brother, for tuning in. um Y'all go check out him and Mar's ah football show Thursday evenings after the the games.
00:15:23
Speaker
Awesome show. um But, yeah, the we've seen this fall from grace steadily now for a couple years of the Miami Dolphins, and it's it's not good, and it's ah not going to get any better. If it's an important notification, please let us know. Always love SportsCenter.
00:15:38
Speaker
um But, again, the fall from grace... Tell me the Cowboys finished off Washington. So there there's your other juice game of the day. watching day We'll have to talk about it because we brought you on and hopefully Peach will show his face, but we don't know yet. We'll see.
00:15:54
Speaker
We know he's living. Come take your medicine. But anyways, um so the fall from grace for the Miami Dolphins this past year has been stunning in no less words.
00:16:08
Speaker
So we're looking at them now. I'm looking at their schedule right in front of me. they were They're a 1-6 team. They go on the road to the Falcons next week. That could easily be an L. They play the Ravens and the Bills and the Commanders at home.
00:16:25
Speaker
the next three games. So if they don't get it turned around at home and those bills and commanders games, especially if they have Jaden Daniels back are going to be very, very tough games anyways.
00:16:37
Speaker
And maybe the Ravens, if they have Lamar back, that's still 11 days from now. So it's possible. um Then they go into a bye week. What is the over under that Mike McDaniel even makes it to the bye week?
00:16:52
Speaker
ah Tuesday. How is he still coaching? I'll say Tuesday. Yeah, agree I agree. i feel I feel like he should have been fired last week or at least the week before.
00:17:04
Speaker
um yeah You're seeing it in the public press conferences. You're seeing it in on the field now. It's... this the the the entire team's checked out.
00:17:16
Speaker
They've completely checked out to a two is starting up to, to kind of do things on his own. We're kind of this. And obviously there was, there was a lot of talk back in the day with how, how his relationship was with Brian Flores. And we're starting to kind of see that, that two have come out now with, with Mike McDaniel and, uh,
00:17:36
Speaker
it's not It's not good in Miami. like how how are you How do you still have guys with jobs in Miami right now with how badly they've coached and how badly some of these players have played?
00:17:47
Speaker
Broncos about to go for the game, winning field goal right now. Okay. I was talking to a Miami insider yesterday at a party.
00:18:00
Speaker
The Cuban. Yep. The Rubik's Cuban. Yeah, Broncos just won. So he said there's a lot of stuff with Flores because Flores never wanted... He never wanted to... wear um And also...
00:18:13
Speaker
The way they got Flores up out of there, and I guess their GM has some dirt on them about something. Remember Flores, I sue them. So there's a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes, probably why they haven't fired their coach um or their GM.
00:18:26
Speaker
I don't think they signed some NDAs, but I think it's more more to that story of of their suckiness, and they're just being, a you know, cursed with that suckiness. It's going keep happening until they fix things, clean house. their Their owner needs to sell off at this point because I don't know how he's been running it, but I've heard a lot of negative comments about that their owner as well.
00:18:49
Speaker
Not just from like NFL insiders and what have you, but from actual Dolphins fans too. They're like, yeah, this this guy's trash. like Sell the team, please. Yeah, I think Bobby...
00:19:01
Speaker
Oh, no, I was going to say, Bobby makes it out. you You can go in a second. i think Bobby makes a good point here, though, because Tua assigned to a long-term contract is pretty much what has kept Mike McDaniel there now to this point, especially one and six in the season.
00:19:14
Speaker
Yeah. That's true. All right. That is true. Well, let us go ahead and move it on. Let's check out what we got going on here. So another game we want to talk about, the best game of the early games, gentlemen, was a 28-0.
00:19:32
Speaker
to 22 victory for the Eagles. Much needed victory here for the maligned champions. ah Never seen champions be so slandered ah from week to week. But let's be completely honest, their offense had been a little bit of of little stale, little bit of a neutral, so to say.
00:19:55
Speaker
And they were not getting the ball in the air. And boy, oh boy, did that change today. 326 yards and three TDs for Jalen Hurts.
00:20:07
Speaker
They were bombing it out. Two long touchdowns to A.J. Brown, just making people miss everywhere. A.J. had two touchdowns. um And then... um Devontae Smith, career high, 183 receiving yards. Wowzers. what a What a great game this was. So finally, Eagles offensive coordinator Kevin Petullo, Clever D, is starting to open up the offense. How do we feel about this game?
00:20:36
Speaker
Well, I think Hertz had, think he set the Eagle record for having like ah the highest rating game as an Eagle. yeah He had a great game. He he did well. um But the real issue was Carson Wentz to me because Carson Wentz could not, he could not do anything with that offense.
00:20:53
Speaker
ah You know, he he made a couple mistakes and and and threw the pick, I think it pick six or fumble or whatever. So their defense kept them there. But kicking field goals are not going win the game. They had chances to to to take the lead and win that game. But, you know, Carson Wentz played like ah he was betting against his own team or something.
00:21:11
Speaker
The pumpkin has fallen already for Carson Wentz. He didn't even make it to the playoffs. I know, Peach, that you showed up just in time because you wanted to talk about this because you bring it up all the time ah that maybe keeping Sam Darnold one more year was the way to go, especially with the injured rookie. Tell us more about that, Peach.
00:21:31
Speaker
Seattle says thank you. That's I'm going to say. Seattle says thank you. I mean – the You know what the real issue is? I think Wentz might be better than J.J. McCarthy, and I think they're kind of hiding McCarthy. It's it's a sprained ankle. How are you out for like eight weeks?
00:21:46
Speaker
And he was really bad when he played, right? I think they're they're scared to play him again this year. I think they're going be... Interesting. I don't know, man. Well, yeah, as someone who two chapter not as someone who had to watch that ah someone who had to watch that Sunday night game against Atlanta for for the the post game later on.
00:22:04
Speaker
Yeah, he did not look good in that game at all. He was awful, awful, philosophical um awful, awful. Like, holy cow. I mean, a 64.9 rating isn't good. ap You got any other thoughts on that game?
00:22:18
Speaker
um I think Brian Flores just gave the the NFL the the the formula to finally stop the touch push push. h Okay. i like I like how they defended it. You're going to get a guy literally laying down right next to the ball so that they can't get the leverage.
00:22:36
Speaker
I like that. but And it gave him a false start off of it. So you could you could see Philly wasn't really ready for that. And again, um I'm still concerned about their defense a little bit, guys. I know the offense played great today.
00:22:49
Speaker
um but you still really didn't play well defensively in the second half. How do you allow 13, 14 points second half against the Minnesota team that struggled early on in that game? Like but the that's my only concern with Philly is that, yes, they play great. A majority of that though in the first half.
00:23:08
Speaker
but lin the sunday They're also inconsistent on offense too. It's like either the run game is going well and the pass game isn't, or the pass game is going and the run game isn't. So, I don't know. i don't They're not as good as last year, but they're still good enough to you know win the NFC. I'm not going to say that. I'm not going to say they're not enough to win the ff
00:23:27
Speaker
Yeah. No, mean, I agree. I think there's always that chance, right? And so if they're still in it, I mean, you might as well try to just – Get off his – wow, that's what I was trying not to pause. Anyways, I'm just going to continue moving.
00:23:42
Speaker
um Let's go ahead move it on. So, yeah, more games early on. We had this one here, which just finished off, Peach. I'm about to take my medicine in a second, so you can go ahead and take yours right now since we brought the special guest AP on.
00:23:58
Speaker
This was – I put the score there earlier in the fourth quarter because I did it at the beginning. It turned out to be the same exact score, a 44-22 ass whooping. But more importantly, and I want you to answer this question first, how is Jaden Daniels? What have you heard from inside Ruskin's camp?
00:24:15
Speaker
Haven't heard much else than everybody else. It's a Hammy. He'll probably be out a few weeks. But it's okay because I'm joining Omar in mock draft season because it's over. the defense The defense is just horrendous.
00:24:28
Speaker
And I'm going to say this, and this is going to be controversial, okay? Fuck you, Terry McLaurin. Your fucking hold-ass, bitch-ass shit yeah was the catalyst to this, to the baddest. I'm telling you, man, him holding out when he's already under contract, being a fucking selfish bitch this year, which he never was.
00:24:47
Speaker
No, it's it was all selfish this year, man. You're 30. We gave you a big contract, your second deal. Don't hold him holding out. Like just, I don't know. It just took the juju away. And I've been saying it since the preseason, the juju has been gone. And then the defense is the defense. Joe Witt is going to be the, the guy that's going to take the fall for it. But man, I'm worried because it really is Dan Quinn's defense.
00:25:11
Speaker
You know what I mean? Is it, is it Joe Witt's defense? No. Our head coach is a defensive guy. So it just stinks, man. It's just like, i don't know. i'm I'm a little angrier than I probably should be, but yeah,
00:25:23
Speaker
So I'm probably saying, you know, angry things. That's why I got came on a little late too. And I wanted to watch the end of that Giants game. So I had to come on a little bit later because I've been angry since that time.
00:25:34
Speaker
A little angry? a little angry? Is that what you're doing? This is speech right here. This is just a little. You saw me earlier. so i'm Not on camera.
00:25:45
Speaker
That's speech right now. And i hate to say I hate to say, if you go by this year right now, my quarterback's number four in our division. I hate it. Like, it's like...
00:25:57
Speaker
But he was also injured, to be fair. He was injured. Right. But then again, all the people that say, all the people that talk to all that shit, he's going to be injury prone because of his frame. They look right. And I hate it.
00:26:08
Speaker
I don't want them to be right. But right now, what can I say? I mean, you all had the RG3 already once. So, we I mean, we don't we we've talked about not wanting to see that happen again. AP, what were your thoughts on that? Oh, go ahead.
00:26:20
Speaker
And I don't even want to talk about it. It makes it worse that Drake May is fucking looking like a superstar. It's just like didn't everybody pissing on Pete during the football season. And let's not even talk about Maryland later. Just cut that.
00:26:36
Speaker
Cut the slide. Cut the slide. Cut the slide. He said take that slide out. I i know you already made this time list i think that's you know yeah a AP, what you got for us on this one? ah The sooner Washington gets out of that stadium, the better, because that's – they need they They really need another another stadium. That stadium has caused so many injuries.
00:26:56
Speaker
It's crazy. um Dallas needed this. They needed this type of game after after what happened to them last week to Carolina. I know Carolina's playing good right now, but defensively they needed this. Deron Bland getting the pick six, that that had to be helpful for him. Mm-hmm.
00:27:16
Speaker
having a running game for the first time in like three, four, five years is a blessing now because it it allows you to have sustainability on offense, keep the opposing offense off the field because you're going to need to.
00:27:29
Speaker
Now with how poor your defense has played, they shifted back to man coverage. and Again, I know people aren goingnna people have already cri phil ridiculed me on this. I know Washington had didn't have their their top three receivers. I know Jaden got hurt.
00:27:45
Speaker
But this was a mental, a morale boosting thing for the Cowboys defense. defense They needed ah game like this to kind of get their confidence going. And I understand with the Terry thing, we went through the same thing this year with Micah. That's why Jerry traded him.
00:28:02
Speaker
Could have traded him a little earlier, probably, not a week before the season. but um and And now I think I told this to Omar and Clover D before we went on.
00:28:16
Speaker
I am firmly on team trade Trayvon Diggs because – He was not in the lineup today, got into an accident before he report this week.
00:28:29
Speaker
All of a sudden, him not being on the field, you've seen the morale shift. You've seen the attitude shift. They played more aggressive today. They played in aggressive man coverage today.
00:28:41
Speaker
i like what I saw from Mikel Bridges, the rookie who be played pretty well today. um We'll be getting, can't remember who it was.
00:28:53
Speaker
We'll be getting Kaylin Carson back soon. We'll be getting DeMarvian Overshaw back soon, which will help boost that defense. oh Again, they needed this today for just morale purposes. They needed, and good on Matt Eberflus. Good on Matt Eberflus. A lot of shit talk, including from me, saying he needed to be fired. He needed to go away.
00:29:15
Speaker
He called a good game today, so I can't be mad at him today. He did he did he did what he needed to do. and And one thing, Clubber D, that has been consistent all year long while oh AP has you know astutely pointed out the defense performed a little better today has been the offense.
00:29:32
Speaker
Dak Prescott going for another three touchdowns, including a 74-yarder to CeeDee Lamb. He's been up there in everybody's MVP picks so far this year. How did you feel about this game?
00:29:44
Speaker
and And he should he should be back is having that another one those years where his he's on point. OK, although we all criticize dag is because of the Cowboys, you know, the over. always on the TV, they're always talking about it first take, but this is this is justified this time. Dak is actually, he's on that level at this point.
00:30:01
Speaker
um As far as what what Peach had mentioned with the holdout, I not feel your pain. i You did that test last year and Karma came around and he tours me against the Chiefs.
00:30:11
Speaker
It looked like trash when we started the season. So holdouts do affect the team, affects morale kind of, you know I'm not a fan of that stuff. But again, look at from both sides. ah Players do need to get paid. It's not my money, so I get mad to a certain point, but I completely understand how you feel. No, but he's under contract practice this year, though.
00:30:31
Speaker
He's not a free agent. That's what pisses me off. know. I know. I know. But, again... It was the same with Micah, too. He was still had a one-year deal, and... it's in I mean, I think we've come to know this. That's why Jerry ultimately was like, you know what, if you're not going to play well, it's just what happens. This is how the NFL is nowadays.
00:30:49
Speaker
They don't do basketball and and nothing like that. It sucks because as as us as fans right now, the fuck you know, we'd come back out there. But as them, they're like, oh I'm not going to out there. I want to get paid more. It's just ah it's a thing. i just it's It's annoying. it's It's very annoying. Yes, to the morale, it's kind of like.
00:31:05
Speaker
you know i don't know if he was a holdout hold in like it meant like it means a damn thing uh but you know it's drama that a team doesn't need and it leaks over i would say there has been a rise and trust me i know being a niner fan of these soft tissue injuries uh lately in sports especially in football don't what i know they're cheering they changed the training and the uh pre-season ah less one less game and they also changed the practices not as many but a lot of these guys are are messing their handings up and they're so annoying because you know they're gonna out by four weeks but I'd three weeks maybe tops, depending on how bad it is, it's a tear or something like that.
00:31:39
Speaker
And like you Peach, they're just feeding into the hole. Jay Daniels is frail. He's not going to able last. And there you go. you know And the final, I'll end with this, is just you guys are an old team.
00:31:50
Speaker
And you know it's starting to show. it's It's just starting to show in certain areas. My biggest concern with Washington this year was their defense. I don't think they did enough to address their defensive needs. He lost a couple big pieces on that defensive line too, which, you know, the one guy they did get the one guy they did keep had a pretty good game today. he He was a game record for the entire game for the most part. Deron Payne's phenomenal.
00:32:16
Speaker
But you can't you can't just have him on that defensive line. you would What a big swing and a whiff by Peters trading for Lattimore. I don't even want to talk about that bum. Golly. And then he talks shit and gets penalties. Like, I can't take it.
00:32:33
Speaker
I can't take it. Yeah, yeah yeah g GP had his way with him today. that paul and then I'll i'll talk about another weapon that you didn't talk about either is Aubrey. You didn't really need him today, but God, kicking a 60-yarder, like, it's nothing. It's just...
00:32:50
Speaker
It's insane. He's at the most 60-yard field goals in NFL history. He's got five. And it's easy. He makes it so easy. It's just like it's frustrating. as as he could he would have That 60-yarder, I saw the next-gen stat on it. It would have been good from 80. Damn. It was right down the middle, too. He wasn't even.
00:33:08
Speaker
Is he human?
00:33:12
Speaker
He's a soccer player. He's a soccer player. That's why. He was so strong to knock Pete off. Knock Pete off. What's funny about the whole thing is that three years ago, he wasn't even playing football.
Daniel Jones and Colts' Triumph
00:33:25
Speaker
Like, I guess him and his wife were watching football on TV. We're watching kickers miss kicks all the time.
00:33:34
Speaker
And she literally looked at him and it was like, you can do that. Yeah. and like And he's like, you know what? I'll give it a try. He goes to the USFL, goes play for the Birmingham Stallions, does great there, gets a contract from Dallas, and now he's probably one of the best long-range kickers in NFL history.
00:33:52
Speaker
Yeah. That's good stuff. There you go Good story. All right. We'll be soon. There you go. Yeah, we had some really good games in the second half. ah So let's go ahead move on to the late games and get rid of all those early games that were booty juice.
00:34:08
Speaker
And we'll move it on to the start. This one, the Colts 38, Chargers 24. um Any quick thoughts on that game? Obviously, the Colts blowing them out there. We don't need to stick very long on that. But anybody had thoughts on this?
00:34:21
Speaker
Daniel Jones, still an MVP finalist as of today, gentlemen. Unbelievable performance by him again. Pretty crazy. Amazing what happens when you take quarterbacks out of New York.
00:34:33
Speaker
I know. Three TDs by JT, though, too, so let's not... Oh, no doubt. that fact as well No doubt. A healthy Jonathan Taylor plus a great offensive line plus weapons he can throw to. Yeah, I'm pretty sure David Jones is going to be played.
00:34:48
Speaker
You don't have do much when you're offensive lines block before you've got a great running back. You do not have to just don mess up. i look Well, let's not take away their defense either. Their defense has been playing pretty well too. that that That's an underrated defense.
00:35:00
Speaker
A lot of people are riding Indianapolis off because of just the team itself because, oh, they got Daniel Jones as quarterback. That team might win the division this year. They could be allowed to win the AFC style this year. They should win the division with But, yeah, no, one thing you said was offensive line play, right?
00:35:19
Speaker
And the problem is the Chargers. They had their two best tackles, Curt, Slater, oh out, out, Now Justin Herbert, I'm watching this game, in all the and he's just running for his life every play. I'm like, oh, this is just not good. So not sure what's going to happen to the Chargers, but now four and three and the Chiefs are on their way back up, um and we can might as well throw that in there. I was going to talk about it last, but the Chiefs beating my Raiders ass 31-0. That was an ass-whooping of upper proportions, as we like to call it in our in our friends group, the 703 boys, ass-whooping casserole.
00:35:54
Speaker
ah was what that was. It was very bad. It tasted bad. I don't want any more of it. I'm sick and tired of this team. I'm sick and tired of this franchise. I'm used to it by now, though, so I can't be as mad as Peach because at least he had some winning years there for a couple of bit before he went. Like, we we have just sucked. We've sucked since the Super Bowl.
00:36:12
Speaker
We never got better. We had a couple years with John Gruden, and then Peach conspired with Bruce Allen to take the Raiders out, and now the Raiders have sucked ever since.
Raiders' Ongoing Struggles
00:36:26
Speaker
I was going to say, did you just put a hex on the organization in 2002 or what? Because it's been like you had a Super Bowl caliber team for two years in a row that looked great. Rich Gannon was playing at an MVP level.
00:36:41
Speaker
They get their ass kicked in that Super Bowl. They got cheated that one year. Sarah Gusey did a damn Jokozuna splash on Gannon. You know i was a chief. And they didn't call a penalty on that. And what about the tuck rule, too? Let's bring that up. You know what? yeah You really want to dig the needle in there, huh, Needler? But I will say that that is hilarious, so we won't let the truth get in the way of a good story.
00:37:01
Speaker
So, yes, I was very pissed off and that you tried to needle me, and I ended the stream on purpose and sabotaged. Let's get back into the deal. Anyways, let's move into the other good games we had on the weekend or the afternoon slate.
00:37:16
Speaker
27-23 Packers over the Cardinals. thirty three thirty two Broncos over the Giants in a last-second field goal win that we saw Clubber D's reactions. Any thoughts on these games, gentlemen?
00:37:28
Speaker
That Giants game was the best game of the day for sure. That was insane. I mean, I can't believe the Giants blew that. Like, that was unreal. And then – i the poor The poor kicker missing the extra point to lose them the game, basically, because it allowed Denver to drive down the field and kick right kick the the field goal for the win instead of the tie.
00:37:49
Speaker
Unreal. Unreal game.
00:37:52
Speaker
Josh Jacobs, two TDs. Micah Parsons, three sacks. Packers, four-one. Cardinals losing another close game. That's about time Micah showed up.
00:38:03
Speaker
He's been farming all year long. because his sack was the key that got them game. I'm glad they won. How about this? Your professor's fun fact for this game. The Cardinals have lost five straight games by a combined 13 points.
00:38:17
Speaker
They're only the third NFL team to lose by four points or less in five straight games, joining the 1984 Cleveland Browns and the, do you remember which 49ers team that would have been?
00:38:30
Speaker
2017. two thousand and seventeen Yep. Okay. i would say no Also joining the also joining the Auburn Tigers. i sam any other thoughts Any other thoughts on these two games, gentlemen?
00:38:46
Speaker
Hey, the Giants aren't an easy out anymore. They're not. Jackson Dutt is for real. Jackson Dutt, that is their QB of the future. That's going to be a team that they're going to build from now on.
00:38:57
Speaker
It'll be questionable if they keep their head coach, but you know what? i like I like the two rookies because they they brought a little bit of life and energy into that team. Scadaboo ain't to last long, but it's going to be fun while it lasts. I'll say that. It'll be fun to watch them while it lasts, but it ain't going to last long.
00:39:16
Speaker
I agree. Yeah. Yep. Clever D you said that a couple of weeks ago, you don't play that well at that style and last long in the NFL. And that's completely true. So, but Hey, I agree with you AP. I think they should get rid of day ball. Actually. I don't think you said that you said, I got to think about it. I would personally, if it were me, get rid of day ball and start over with a new coach. Anybody else?
00:39:35
Speaker
I'd stay with day ball. Hmm. Cause he has dark playing. He hasn't planned. They're clicking. um You know, have him go a whole off season knowing that that's number one and you know, I'm saying have him kind of groom that way. I think the if he, I think he was there instead of Russ, um, he might be a little more advanced. You never know.
00:39:56
Speaker
AP. Yeah. Um, If Russ was still playing at QB, I think he'd be gone by now. Because you take that one game away against Dallas where they they hey haven't figured it out on defense. He hasn't played that great.
00:40:12
Speaker
But, again, Jackson Dart has just brought life into that team. Kamsgabu's brought life into that team. I know you already touched on the Miami game, but I just saw a clip of – Quinn Ewers went out there for three plays, his first three plays in the NFL, came back off the field, got a cold shoulder from his head coach.
00:40:30
Speaker
How is Mike DeGay? He'll have a job. yeah Yeah, after elevating him to number two, too, this week. So let's get some comments here real quick. ah Hey, what up to Big Rube?
00:40:43
Speaker
Big Rube, what's up, my brother? Says, go Cowboys. Yes, they they got the victory. We got Peach here eating some crow. I had to eat my own for my victory. That being said, let's move it in to the Sunday night game. We have Clubber D's 49ers versus...
00:40:59
Speaker
forty nine er ah versus Dirty Mojo's Falcons, he decided not to show up this evening, ah
49ers vs Falcons Preview
00:41:08
Speaker
but that's okay. We'll talk about it without him.
00:41:11
Speaker
So, Clubber D, since this is your account, we have two of the best running backs in the league going into this game, Christian McCaffrey and Bijan Robinson.
00:41:25
Speaker
Give us your preview on this game. You know, you got the Falcons having that great emotional win on Monday night against a very good Buffalo team, showing the world that they're still alive. They're still in a fight.
00:41:36
Speaker
They're still scrappy. I know they're down. I think Jalon Walker. Is it Jalon Walker? Yeah. He's not playing. mill and Another person's not playing on their defense. I'm not sure who that. was hoping now Lamar would be on, but we're missing another person on their defense. Niners.
00:41:52
Speaker
Yes, McCaffrey, he's good at catching. we can't We can't run the ball for shit. We only got one rushing touchdown. That was last week. we have We can't intercept the ball. We lost our ah leader in Fred Warner, but now we have Kittle coming back this game.
00:42:06
Speaker
Purdy's still hurt. oh Ricky Pearsall's not going to play. The thing is going to be, are we going to be able to get in Michael Penix's face, okay, because we cannot we're not really sacking second anyone right now.
00:42:19
Speaker
We're pretty decent against the run, but we're going to have finally intercept the ball. It's been like 14 games, and we have to get some sacks. That's the only way we're going win this game. um I trust Mac Jones. i think he's going to do well, um but will our offensive line block? Okay, that's going to be the main thing. Can we run the ball?
00:42:35
Speaker
If we can run the ball or at least use McCaffrey as a scrimmage, ah out on screens or something like that and put in Brian Robinson Jr. because we traded him for a reason. We drafted Jordan James from Oregon for a reason, but I don't know why. i don't what's the reason for it, just to sit on sideline while McCaffrey does everything. So we're going to have pull put something out of our ass to win this game. I think we will because it's home, and Shea usually doesn't lose twice in the world.
00:42:59
Speaker
I mean, as you mentioned, right, go ahead. I'll give score real quick because I'm to cut out. I would say Niners, I will say Niners, I'll my 30, my classic 30 to 17. I'm going with that.
00:43:14
Speaker
30-17. There you go. All right, brother. Well, good luck and enjoy the game. I'll see until like 8-10. Oh, okay. Cool. All right. Well, ah the ah we was talking about dual threat running backs, um AP, and Brejohn Robinson now joins, as your professor's fun fact for this game, Thurman Thomas.
00:43:33
Speaker
Buffalo Bills fame 1991 is the only players ever with at least 300 receiving yards and 450 rushing yards through five games and has a chance to join McCaffrey as one of only four players with at least a thousand of each in a full season.
00:43:51
Speaker
So definitely doing better. What do you think about this game, AP? think it's a tough one to kind of figure out because, you know, point Falcons defense has actually been playing a lot better than people give them credit for. it Statistically, they're second best defense in the NFL.
00:44:05
Speaker
um You know, they' they're great against the run. They they shut down Josh Allen and the Bills on Monday night. The tough part is you're going from coast to coast on a short week.
00:44:17
Speaker
I know the 49ers are being held together with duct tape at prayer and – everything else. But it's still going to be a tough game. Not only that, Mac Jones gets a reliable tight end target back tonight in George Kittle. So oh it'll be closer than people think. it ah It might come down to the final position. We might actually see a good Sunday night game for once.
00:44:43
Speaker
That doesn't end in forty that doesn't end in up forty forty ti Right. hopeful yeah Hopefully not. Go Pack Go. I see you, Gina. As your shout out, yeah, your Packers won today. Don't be needling me about my Raiders.
00:44:55
Speaker
That's messed up. I see you, though. Peach, what are your thoughts about this game? By the way, John Robinson only needs 178 yards to become the first player since Marshall Falk in 2000 to reach 1,000 scrimmage yards through six games. What are your thoughts?
00:45:09
Speaker
I think Deion hit the nail on the head. ah The key to this game for San Francisco is getting pressure on Pennix. He struggles under pressure, but man, if you give him time, he will pick you apart with all those Falcons weapons.
00:45:20
Speaker
um I am worried with no Warner there. because he's such a sure tackler, and that's what you also got to do. That's my key number two to the game. You have to tackle Bijan right away. You can't let him break tackles in and bust loose, and that's the key to the game.
00:45:36
Speaker
I'm going to say this is going to be a really good game, I think. I think it's going to be like 30-27. I'll give it to the Niners today. I like the Niners in this game.
00:45:47
Speaker
30-27. It is a one-and-a-half point spread. Atlanta is actually the favorite on the road, a road favorite here. ah ah i don't think i know I have haven't given my score yet, but go way ahead umm I'm sorry to everybody on the call. I'm actually going to with the upset.
00:46:04
Speaker
I think Atlanta's a little mojo going right now. I think defensively they're playing pretty well. Bijan's been hard to stop. and You talked about guys who should be in the MVP candidacy right now. Bijan Robinson has to be up there.
00:46:18
Speaker
I know they're not going to give it to a running back, but he's been phenomenal. I'm going to go 24-21 Atlanta. Nice. Okay. There you go. Yeah.
00:46:29
Speaker
I mean, I know the 49ers are injured, but they've persevered through injury this whole year. The Falcons have been up and down and haven't shown any that they can win with any consistency. So if I'm taking – A team that's been winning through adversity and injury versus a team that can't even win when they don't have any injuries or adversity.
00:46:47
Speaker
I'm going to take the team at home that has pushed through the adversity. I'm taking the 49ers in this game. It will be a close one. It will be a field goal game. I am feeling 24-21, 27-24. I'm go with that,
00:47:03
Speaker
ah That's a little high, though, I think. I mean, that's right on – yeah, I'm going to go 24 – I'm going to agree with you. Niners is the way I'm going to go, though. We don't score that much. It's crazy, so.
00:47:15
Speaker
I know. That's what was just thinking. That's why i brought it down a little bit. So, let's go ahead and look at these Monday night games before Club Red D gets out of here. Let me go ahead and share my screen here. I got the ESPN screen real quick. I'm about to go in about a minute, so – I tell what I think is going to win. Yeah, go right ahead.
00:47:35
Speaker
I'll say, who's playing this? ah Right there. It's on the screen. No, it's not. No, it's not. Oh, hold on. Hold on. Calm down. She's Louise. Tampa Detroit is the first one. Tampa Detroit is the first one.
00:47:50
Speaker
Tampa Detroit is the first one. Tampa Detroit. I'm going with ah i go Detroit on that one. I think Detroit is going beat Tampa. It's in Detroit too. It's in Detroit. Detroit's a five-and-a-half favorite, 53-and-a-half spread.
00:48:03
Speaker
Yeah, I'm going with Detroit. They're probably going to put, like, I'm going to I'll say 34 to,
00:48:13
Speaker
uh, Baker making a game. I'll say 34 to 21, you know. And the next one, I'll be biased. I'm going to say the Texans will win in Seattle.
00:48:26
Speaker
And yeah, I am. I am. I trust not what whole division lose. I know. I know that. I know why you're saying it. I'm not saying that's going to happen though. Oh man. For fancy purposes, I'm going to say, uh, Texas are going to shut the Seahawks at home, which probably not going happen. Um, so I'm going to say 20, 21, nothing Texans.
00:48:49
Speaker
That's going to happen, but fancy purposes. I'm going to say that I'm sticking with it, but, uh, yeah, I'm biased. I don't care. Any other thoughts on these last two games, gentlemen, for tomorrow night? I think to ah actually think the Lions are going to run away with this one.
00:49:03
Speaker
I do. I don't think they'll run away, but I do think they'll win. I love the Bucs, but the uncertainty at wide receiver tomorrow night scares me for them. And like said, Detroit is another animal at home. But I will say this. There will be a rematch in the playoffs.
00:49:16
Speaker
I will say that. I think that's definitely going to be be a thing. so We'll see there. Seattle, I think, Seattle, I think, rolls too. I'm just not big into Houston, especially, you know, they're just so inconsistent.
00:49:28
Speaker
Some days their defense looks insane, and then some days it looks like trash. So I'll stick with the consistent Seattle Seahawks to win that game. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I'm going with the upset. I'm going Tampa Bay on the road. Half their secondary is – we say half the wide receivers for Tampa's out, half the secondary for Detroit's out, including Brian Branch who's suspended for this game.
00:49:51
Speaker
That's true, and as long And as long as number six is quarterback, give me him over anybody else right now. hes He is my MVP favorite. He is my MVP pick. right now. So I'll take Tampa on the road to to win this game.
00:50:06
Speaker
Kate Otten, have yourself a night, by the way, on Monday night. And then Texas Texan Seahawks. This one's interesting. Because Sam Darnold has played well, their defense is starting to come along a little bit. It is at home. It is a tough environment.
00:50:23
Speaker
um I'm not 100% sold on Houston just yet. So I'm going to go with the Seahawks too. and Earlier in the week I had Houston, but ah at this point I'm just like Seattle's at home. It's going to be late at night oh for for everybody else anyway.
00:50:40
Speaker
But, yeah, i I'll go with Seattle at home. Yeah, I agree. I took all home teams this week, weirdly enough, in both of the pools. But yeah, that Seattle is the better team right now, and they're at home, home field advantage, especially with that 12th man. Texans haven't proved enough yet. And then, the yeah, the Lions.
00:50:57
Speaker
Lions should be able to handle the Buccaneers at home, especially being angry after losing last week. um But the Buccaneers are a really good team, and I'm not i'm excited to see them play throughout the season.
Monday Night Football Previews
00:51:07
Speaker
But, yeah at home in Ford Field, it's a little tougher.
00:51:10
Speaker
So I would see Detroit winning that game as well. And I want to say we want to say one more thing. A 10 o'clock kickoff is ridiculous on a work night. But thank God I work in the school, and there's something called a Diwali holiday, though I'm off on Tuesday, so I don't care. But it's still ridiculous. 10 p.m. kickoff, that should not happen. why Why are we still doing two Monday night games?
00:51:27
Speaker
why Why can't we just go back to doing one? See, I like the two Monday Night games. I don't know. I have two TVs, so I like the two do Monday Night games. I watch them side by side. so You're a wrestling fan. Watch wrestling instead of second Monday Night games. Come on, Omar. All right. That could be true. um just ah Just to educate everybody since Pete said something called Diwali, it is a Indian national holiday in India. It's they' it's like their Christmas kind of. That's what saying, but we get all for it here, so I love it. No, I know. i know yeah Yeah, of course we get it. All right, looking at next week, NFL. It's actually Amul. Happy Diwali Day, Amul, my brother. um Looking at next week, I highlighted the main games.
00:52:07
Speaker
Vikings-Chargers is the Thursday night game with the Chargers losing there. You got the 4-3 versus 3-4. Then you got the Bills and Panthers. so I never thought I would highlight a Panthers game.
00:52:19
Speaker
But, yeah, here we are, 4-3 Panthers versus 4-2 Bills. And then you got the Packers, 4-1 versus the Steelers, 4-2. And then, finally, your commanders next week, Peach. We'll have to see if we can get Wild Card Mar on. Going up against the Chiefs next Monday night.
00:52:36
Speaker
What are your thoughts about getting these games, gentlemen? Why the hell is Kansas City on another primetime game for the guys? Because they're Kansas City. that you You know the answer of that. Don't act like you don't know the answer to that.
00:52:46
Speaker
Jesus Christ. Yeah, Peach. Casserole. I'm ready for it. Really? oh Well, if Jaden Daniels is hurt, of course. But if he's not, I don't know.
00:52:58
Speaker
the dog Do you know what Patrick Mahomes is going to do against his defense? It's been bad. It looks like they've given up. We didn't even realize that Sunday night game is Aaron Rodgers' revenge game like a motherfucker.
00:53:13
Speaker
Look at that. And after losing Thursday night on a longer week against a creeping defense that's been spotty at best, you don't think Aaron Rockers is going want to go off on his former team?
00:53:26
Speaker
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Now, Pete, we got a little college football real quick. You know what I'm getting to. But first, let's look at these games. Alabama beats Tennessee.
00:53:39
Speaker
Arizona State taking out ranked Texas Tech. That was a crazy one. ah Vanderbilt, what a game here in Nashville, beating LSU. ah Diego Piavilla inserting himself into Heisman contention. Notre Dame with a quality victory over 5-1-1.
00:53:57
Speaker
FUSC Trojan condoms Miami 21 huge loss undefeated Miami going down to Louisville um and then we had Ole Miss Georgia 43 35 what an amazing game that was there Georgia wins gentlemen any thought on any of these games grab my hat how are people letting Arkansas in games What is going on? What what what is in the water in Arkansas right now where they're down by like 30 and only lose by three?
00:54:33
Speaker
what what' What is that? It just makes me wonder. It's like, how good are these SEC defenses really? If you're allowing teams like Arkansas who can't play offense worth a lick, put up 42 points on you. Like, it's crazy. Yeah.
00:54:51
Speaker
Georgia Tech's for real, I think. Georgia Tech could be the ah the team in the ACC that people don't want to play. And it sucks that Miami lost when they did because they don't play Georgia they don't play georgia Tech or Virginia.
00:55:08
Speaker
And both teams right now are both undefeated in conference play. So you would need one of those teams to lose in order to even make the championship game at this point. So it's crazy that we're talking Georgia Tech, Virginia, and the ACC instead of teams like Miami and Clemson. And you've got to love it, right? This is what we want as
Underdogs Shine in College Football
00:55:30
Speaker
college football fans. We want some of these underdog teams.
00:55:32
Speaker
Like, how about the number two team in the country right now, the Indiana Hoosiers, who's a basketball team. That's crazy. That's insane right now. So, yeah, I'm um' loving college football right now. It's great.
00:55:46
Speaker
And Vanderbilt, too. Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt known for their academics, not their athletics. I know, right? Unless it's baseball. Yeah, Clark Lee came in there and built up a a huge powerhouse contender there now, um which is crazy in the SEC because of how hard that is to do. Peach, any thoughts on any of these games?
00:56:05
Speaker
Let's talk about a little bit of Texas squeaking by and Arch Manning stinking again. We need to bring your money on here again, bud, because you're getting any better down there. Yeah, we'll have to see. You get doubled up 2-1 in the stack column by Kentucky.
00:56:20
Speaker
Right. How did we lose to this team again? How did we lose to this team again? the the The optimists would say they won the game and still have a chance at the playoffs. That's what the optimists would say.
00:56:31
Speaker
They only have two losses. I mean, we ran over South Carolina, so at least that made me feel a little better. Well, there you go. like I don't even like Sandstorm anyway. I prefer Inter-Sandman.
00:56:43
Speaker
this hurts yeah me too This hurts me as much as it does you, Peach, as an alumnus of this beautiful university. But as a fan... Of UCLA first.
00:56:55
Speaker
Yes. twenty to seventeen over your Maryland Terrapins. Now, yes, everybody, I did go to the University of Maryland. They are an amazing university. But I loved UCLA 20 years before that, so we stick with our teams. Peach, did you feel about Maryland September turning into Maryland forever? It's the same every year, man. We start off strong, then we get into conference play, and it's over.
00:57:20
Speaker
But this year – The two before this one were even more heartbreaking. i mean, you get up 20 to nothing, and you know, and then you get up again the next week. You go, you you're having a shootout and you lose that one. And then you lose to UCLA in a stinker, really. They they didn't play good the whole game. they didn't We didn't deserve to win.
00:57:38
Speaker
So that game is what it is. But it's it's normal Maryland. I'm used to it. It's the same thing. used to it. that one at Washington was really what did it. it kind of steamrolled y'all and it just went all downhill from there. And I was really upset because I thought they really had a good chance if they won that, that game to, to make something special this year. Cause look, and they're not my team. I don't root for them first and foremost. If it's UCLA versus Maryland, I root for UCLA, but they're still my school.
00:58:01
Speaker
So I still wanted to do well. AP, any thoughts on this? Yeah. I hope UCLA fans enjoyed the high life that they're on right now. Cause, uh, Have fun with Indiana next week.
00:58:14
Speaker
Yo, if we beat Indiana next week, though, I'm going to want you to be in the comments eating your crow. right, that's all and don't go I right, cool. Let's look at the last. Let's look at some games next week. Like you said, UCLA-Indiana.
00:58:26
Speaker
We got Ole Miss-Oklahoma in another rate ranked matchup. You've got Virginia against who we need to talk about next week or one of these weeks. ah Bill Belichick's horrible North Carolina program. Any he thoughts on this horribleness?
00:58:41
Speaker
Ugly. Just straight ugly. and i think he'll be I think he's gone after this season. i think it's a Should have won that game if not for the the fumble of the one-yard line. Yeah. Well, they've got a 20-minute million buyout on him, ah and if they if they pay him his salary, they would have paid him if he if they released him $30 million dollars for one horrible year.
SEC's Tough Schedule for AP's Team
00:59:03
Speaker
So Bill Belichick, great job. I want to say this, too, because I feel like there was a little bit of bias from the SEC when Texas and Oklahoma came into the conference. Because for Texas, who do they have left?
00:59:15
Speaker
Vandy, Georgia, Mississippi State. A lot of the the bottom tier schools still left. Who do we have left the next five weeks? Ranked Ole Miss.
00:59:26
Speaker
Ranked Missouri. Ranked Alabama. Ranked Tennessee. Ranked LSU. Damn. Feel like somebody's out to get us. Yeah, that's not good at all. Wow.
00:59:37
Speaker
I'm not trying to be an Auburn fan here, but I'm just saying. it i heard At the very least, three of those are at home. You got ah you got Ole Miss, Missouri, and LSU at home, which should be good great environments for those games.
00:59:53
Speaker
You got to go to Tuscaloosa. You got to go to Neyland Stadium. Those are going to be tough road games. But I like how our defense is played. I think theyve they've definitely stepped it up like from last year. If John Mateer continues to get better week if week by week, I like our chances in some of these games, especially Ole Miss after what Georgia did to them yesterday.
01:00:16
Speaker
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Yeah, no, you're definitely right about that. Peach, any thoughts? No thoughts. I'm just a beating-down sports fan right now. so Yeah.
01:00:26
Speaker
Yeah, I want to go – One of those weeks, so – Yeah, I want to go rest my loins as well, and I bought up myself i ah a seafood boil to make myself feel better. So there you go.
01:00:37
Speaker
What we got right now, baseball, we got a little 0-0 top of second. Mariners, Blue Jays, this is game six in to Toronto. That being said, ah thank you again. AP, sign off. Let them know where you can find you at.

What a fantastic game did Shohei Otani have the other day. Wow. He be the greatest player we've ever seen. It's kind of crazy to say.
01:01:21
Speaker
But ten strikeouts and three bombs. Is that one of the best single performances we've ever seen? i think yeah It might be the greatest single single playoff performance ever. Oh, no doubt. I agree. Yeah.
01:01:33
Speaker
Playoff performance is completely one of the... I made the joke that we were picking... we were talking about who's going to be in the World Series, I was like, it's going to be the Seattle Mariners versus Shohei Ohtani.
01:01:45
Speaker
Because that's basically all it is. That's all the Dodgers are now is Shohei Ohtani because nobody else has shown up. Yeah. Yeah. i mean, well, he actually wasn't even showing up at first either at the beginning. His postseason average, the first series two was not that great either.
01:01:59
Speaker
But anyways, the Dodgers don't really need one person because they just are so strong pretty much everywhere except. ah for their bullpen. um So anyways, we'll see what happens.
01:02:10
Speaker
Game six tonight, game seven, if necessary, tomorrow. We will have our World Series preview this week. I may have to have both of you on ah because I may have one or two positions to open for my regulars that aren't on. So I'll let you know, AP, I might need you to come sub in again this week on some baseball talk and probably Peach as well.
