NFL Game Analyses: Buccaneers, Falcons, and Panthers
00:03:51
Speaker
Yesterday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the Carolina Panthers six team to fourteen now We talked about all this yesterday, right?
00:04:02
Speaker
The overcoming scenarios of what could happen if Tampa Bay were to win. Your Atlanta Falcons playing spoiler today. Talk to us about what happens.
00:04:13
Speaker
I I'm hoping that anybody that's watching this as a Carolina Panthers fan, go ahead and send me the message thanking me and my Falcons team for giving you guys in the playoffs, but all jokes aside, man, the Panthers earned it. they they They deserve to be in there. I know they lost to yesterday to Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
00:04:30
Speaker
and and It was funny. We were, we were talking in the chat about, is this the Baker Mayfield? Is he going to pull this off and continue and keep the win? And they ended up getting the first down and like that they need to do to win the game. ah i knew the I knew the Falcons were going to win. Tyler Schell tried to come out there and try to do his thing. But our team is better than them.
00:04:47
Speaker
I still don't like the score. it was closer than I expected. i said I think I said in our group chat when they scored the touchdown, i was like, watch them get the onside kick. And Pete was like, that was such a horrible kick. It was terrible. But with our special teams coach, it should want him to be fired all year long.
00:05:04
Speaker
I said to myself, watch this be the epitome of our season, that they give up this damn onside kick and then kick the field goal to win the game. They did it up to win the game. um I mean, hats off to the Falcons. They finished the season strong.
00:05:18
Speaker
I mean, it's it's kind of bittersweet because – Radio Raheem is back, baby. Radio Raheem is going to be back, man. And that's what sucks, man. It's like, God, I am very optimistic at the beginning of every year, and I don't think I'll be optimistic at the beginning of next year. It's going to be when you have the – No, not with him. Not with him as the coach.
00:05:41
Speaker
um When you have your your your ah preseason recap and everything like that, would showdown that we're going to do, i ain't picking the damn five and going to the division, man. Especially with that bum as our fucking...
00:05:52
Speaker
thing So um on ah on a positive note, I said it in the chat. James Pierce Jr. had two sacks today back-to-back, which put him at 10. That set the Falcon rookie record for 10 sacks. And actually, this too, from 2020 to 2024, every season the Atlanta Falcons have finished last in sacks.
00:06:13
Speaker
e Round of applause. They finished with 57 sacks, second in the NFL in sacks this year. so That's awesome. Keep that all de defense playing the way they're playing. Hopefully we'll come back next year with a better outlook. Which is Radio Raheem's specialty, and and which is why he's coming back next year.
00:06:31
Speaker
I would like half those because we only had like 21 sacks all a year. Go ahead, Clever D. do you think about this game? ah One, I will hope somebody leave peace the hell alone. Second, I love the fact that y'all... Stupid. Y'all... Leave him alone. Put it on silent. Peace not vibrate. It won't make the noise. But I put it like this.
00:06:58
Speaker
It was funny watching that game because Tyler Shook, not Shock, I guess. I was pronouncing it all i was pronounccing all wrong also. Whatever. and he in it in a thing hell Probably rookie the year. i didn't know he was actually 26 years old. So i knew he was old, but not that old. He did this with Rodney Bell, X-Niner, drafted wide receiver.
00:07:16
Speaker
Austin Pettis, X-Niner, drafted wide receiver, and no Chris Alave. And that one-handed catch by it Ronnie Bell was fucking phenomenal. Wow, that catch was amazing in the end zone. He was like, look up. That was that was great. in the work that hands with him Yeah, He like, well, have the Chris the turkey bowl. Yeah, through it as that that's ah that' a deep cut right there. But I was just happy. i'm a big he's I'm a fan of him now. i'm i' I'm happy to watch that guy play. And ah that run he ripped off right before he threw that interception, I thought, like, shit, Saints might really win this. I thought they were gonna win, but but I didn't know Alave had his blood clots in his in his lungs.
00:08:00
Speaker
So I didn't know he wasn't going to play. Yeah. But ah yeah, they they said he's pretty good now. he' He's home from in hospital. But ah hey, i was I was impressed on both both ah both sides. um Pierce Jr., that guy's a monster. You mentioned him. And Bates, ah but is it Bates or whoever the rookie ah who had the interceptions last week? um From Notre Dame. Notre Dame. Yeah. when we Yeah, yeah, yeah. Pre-season joint. So, you know, i'm I'm happy to see, like, you know, these are the guys you were looking for to have a good season this year, and they actually did have a good season. You know, which Walker was was just at the same level, but Walker's not bad either. So the Falcons, you got at a promising, you know, of ah something to look at and on defensive side. But it was a good game. It was it very entertaining. So I was very happy to see that.
00:08:41
Speaker
Our other safety, too, that we drafted, Bowman from Oklahoma, he got injured a few weeks ago. And he was having a really goodbola yeah right he was having a good season, too. So as a rookie, you know what I'm saying? We're pretty stacked with the four guys that we drafted in the in the um and in in the the draft last year. So i'm um I'm happy with those four guys on the back.
00:08:59
Speaker
Nice. Let me find out Omar's throwing touchdowns to Peach. You know what I'm saying? Let me find out if Omar. We're going to call Omar now Omar Penix Jr. Because, you know, he had a two-core ACL. So, by the way, just let everybody know, the great, not great, but the rookie, excuse me, cornerback, y'all were talking about, D. Alford. No, no, no, no.
00:09:26
Speaker
It's Watts. or it For Atlanta? For Atlanta? He's a safety. I think Watts. Interesting. Yeah, Watts. What's all what's go out the one you're talking about? omar got the interceptions today.
00:09:37
Speaker
um Oh, Xavier Watts. Yeah, Watts and Notre Dame. There you go. Okay, cool. Yeah. There you go. All right, Peach, what are your thoughts on the falca Buccaneers and Panthers? I thought it was a good game, and who would have thought that a bout between two teams that are already eliminated would mean so much to the playoff picture? That's what made this game great.
00:09:57
Speaker
um When Lamar brought up the onside kick thing, in my head, I was wanting it to happen. Not because I wanted Lamar's team to lose, but I already know them people in ah Charlotte popped that champagne already.
00:10:08
Speaker
So they have to put the bottle, put the corn back in real quick. and they got that They were only they're only down two points, if I remember. So all they would have needed was a field goal. um Yeah, so Ray Dover Raheem keeps his job. i know you're disappointed about that, but your your team's a lot better than that record. And Hopefully the coaching doesn't hold them back another year because you got a lot of weapons. You played well at the end of the year. We'll see next year.
00:10:30
Speaker
um As far as the Saints go, same thing. I mean, a loss not that big of a deal. They were already eliminated, but showed a lot of promise with the young guys. So it's kind of exciting. Both fan bases should be excited a little bit about next year.
00:10:43
Speaker
Yeah, and the main the main point, I think, about this game, other than the fact that the Panthers were eliminated because the Falcons won, which – you know well the panthers The Panthers made it. i mean I mean, the Buccaneers, excuse me, were eliminated because the Falcons won and the but pan Panthers were in. The Panthers had a very up and down season, truth be told, in all of that. If you go back and look, it's win-loss, win-loss, win-loss. It's always at home.
00:11:08
Speaker
Yeah. So, I mean, can you really trust him in the playoffs? I highly, highly doubt it. Well, Peach made that comment yesterday, and he said that to see the Panthers in there, it's okay. But Tampa Bay gives them the – Tampa Bay is the better team to win. Right. I think we're going to do that. Yeah, we're probably going to get a blowout in that first-round matchup. Oh, my God, yes. guy i mean I mean, who are they playing? Do we know? They're playing that they're playing the two-seed, right? The two-seed? No, no, no, no, no. Oh, no, they won the division. no right. They won the division. My bad. So they get a home game.
00:11:38
Speaker
Holy crap. They're playing the 49ers. Yeah. There you go. Yeah. So, yeah. That's going be a fucking blowout. I don't know. I don't know. What a great segue. We're about to talk about it right now. First off, shout out to Kaysen turning in on Cubber East channel.
00:11:55
Speaker
We appreciate it. What Kaysen? Everybody tuning in. Appreciate that. Hit that like button. Cover D, this is your account. Not a very good showing by your 49ers yesterday. Only three points on the board. Seattle actually had three sacks and only allowed one first down in the first quarter. So it was really that start they got off to. Zach Charbonnet scoring that touchdown in the fourth squa first quarter. excuse me What are your thoughts, my friend?
49ers' Performance Review and Critique
00:12:26
Speaker
yeah yeah rock Yeah, some some tissue. No, no. Real man, real man. grow man ah Kyle Shanahan. um If you're getting outcoached, don't continue to do the same shit and then try to change it up in the fourth quarter.
00:12:41
Speaker
Okay? If Brock Purdy is getting rushed by everybody from all sides, put him on the run. Put him on the move or get rid of the ball lot quicker. Stop being so goddamn stubborn. You did it in the Super Bowl. You're doing it in these big games where you think your offense is just – you're just so much better than defensive coordinator, whoever's calling the plays on the other side, that you do not want to make any change, which is so furiating as Niner fans because we see this shit all the time.
00:13:05
Speaker
Look at the Houston game. You know what i'm saying? He didn't make any changes until damn near the end of the game. And and ah Matt Jones getting killed out there. ah The defense, I'm not going to rag on them too much because they they held them to 13 points. We had chances. We had a ball fall right in front of Cleveland Farrell. He couldn't just hop on it. You know what i'm saying? ah That – Seattle had this this is the second time they had they were third. They were down, I guess, was third and 17 and got 19 yards on it.
00:13:30
Speaker
And you saw John Lynch's official expression when he got that. When Kenneth Walker got that, he's like, God damn it. So stuff like that has to be buttoned up if you want succeed. It's OK to do that against terrible defenses. But when you go against a top defense and you play like that, no, you're not a top team. It's fool's goal the last few games. I've seen their high um on cloud nine being, oh, yeah, i go Niners, go Niners. And then you play like this. It's like, come on, man, three points? This is one of the worst offensive performance performances I've seen the Niners do in all of Kyle Shanahan's ah coaching the last nine years. This one of the worst. I mean, come on, bro.
00:14:00
Speaker
And now you got Brock Hurt. You had ah Pleasance looking like a loaf of bread out there. couldn'tve Couldn't block nobody. You what saying? The last play, McKibbin and him just said, you know what? Let's be Matadors. Ole and freaking Purdy did like one of these type things, you know. High and low. Yeah, it looked like Perry Saturn and Cronus didn't hit him.
00:14:20
Speaker
So like, what's going on out here? Oh, Peach, I thought you'd pop on that one, but never mind. We look terrible. We look terrible. This is why wearing a shirt. That's why i'm wearing it. dune And the EFPN notification, Peach. That wasn't me. That one wasn't me. No, that was Lamar. Lamar, don't be on peach, Lamar.
00:14:38
Speaker
be all pe them are yeah glass house off Glass house over here. Jason says, shout out our boy Jason Aponte. Let me talk to you in a minute, brother.
00:14:49
Speaker
Says Eagles playing 49ers. Panthers play Rams, I believe. going to have to check this. I've got the playoff bracket right here. I'm about to get it up, but I just want to make sure the Broncos game finished first.
00:15:01
Speaker
So anyways, let's continue on with this. Peach, what are your thoughts on this game? um I know Dion's down on the game, but they were injured a lot. I'm more down on Seattle after this game. not to be Not being able to score tons of points against that hurt defense is alarming. And that's the thing we've been talking about all year long, Sam Darnold and that offense. Because we know their defense is great. Their defense is going great things. But there's a lot of good offenses in the playoffs. And in that first round that they're going to get to play in the divisional, they're going to play a high-powered offense.
00:15:29
Speaker
I'm telling you it's going the Rams or somebody like that. it's going be trouble for them. And Darnold always struggles in the big game. So true I'm more disappointed in Seattle than I am the Niners. The Niners are totally beat up.
00:15:41
Speaker
It's one of those seasons. It's like if they win, it's like a cherry on top for Dion, right? Like moving forward. It's like, same new right, right. So you're just happy to be there. You understand what's going on. Trent Williams was out too, which was huge. Yet last night, that, that pass rush was,
00:15:57
Speaker
there every second. They look like the 85 Bears yesterday. So, yeah, that's that's my thoughts on it. like that I'm disappointed in Seattle. And and and i think i don't think I think he's going turn – I think the quarterback, Darnold, is going turn into the the pumpkin he is come that divisional round.
00:16:13
Speaker
Yeah, no, I completely agree with you. We'll see him again, pumpkin mode, in the playoffs. Let's catch up with some comments here real quick. Canteen. Shout out, brother. Yardhouse, great place to be. You can get to some good food and and beer there. but We fixed that car. Broncos got to man. Where they at right now? What is the score in this game? Because I know it was coming down to the end. Is it over yet? Can someone give me confirmation on the Broncos game being over?
00:16:38
Speaker
Lamar was just on ESPN, I'm joking. Canteen said, Bills and Jags, Chargers at Pats, Texans at the winner of Ravens-Steelers. So, yeah, let me give that
AFC Playoff Predictions
00:16:50
Speaker
to you. Fox Sports has it right now as Los Angeles Chargers, number 7 seed going into number 2, New England. That's a good game.
00:16:59
Speaker
Oh, that is going to be a good game. I agree. Number 6, Buffalo going into number 3. I never thought I'd say this. Jacksonville. and That's a good game. That's a good game. Warm game, too.
00:17:10
Speaker
Yeah. and the waste book ah Go ahead. No, please. No, no just it's totally off subject. But I just want to say you made fun of me for my noises on here, in Lamar. But at least my noises won't get us copyrighted.
00:17:23
Speaker
wo thesbn sounds That's the sound. ESPN sound. ah but Let's go. Let's go. That was long enough. They were good. No, it wasn't. Number five, Houston Texans will go up against whoever wins tonight, and we'll talk about that game in just a little bit. Pittsburgh and Baltimore. Shout out to our brother, Clutch B, who's actually out there in Pittsburgh right now in the cold. I see them freezing. On the AFC side, you've got number seven, Green Bay, going up against number two, Chicago Division. Ooh. The third time they'll play this year. You also have number six, Williams, going up against number three, Eagles, and number five, Clubber Dees 49ers, going up against the pi Carolina Panthers.
00:18:06
Speaker
So that is your playoff matchups. Hmm. Hmm. All right. Cool. Let's see. So, hey, I want to talk about that 49ers game.
00:18:18
Speaker
Go ahead. The way I see it, man, you wouldn't have thought that this was a game against two teams that were battling for the number one seed. To go 13-3, the score was super low. I know i know a couple guys on the on the panel here ah said this was going high-scoring game.
00:18:37
Speaker
and And it it just it clearly it wasn't. um We did talk about Darnold Peach, and we did say that we know he's gonna that Pumpkin's going to come around, but just don't lose the game. That defense can hold you down, which they did.
00:18:49
Speaker
I'm a little bit more upset with the 49ers because the 49ers have been putting points up on teams. They've been putting belt to ass on their – To have McCaffrey only have, what, 20, 21 yards rushing?
00:19:03
Speaker
he He looked He looked bad, man. He he looked bad. The offense looked bad. It looked very slow. you I mean, I saw your comments that you were making. You you were disappointed in them. It just didn't seem like a team that I'm going to be happy about.
00:19:16
Speaker
And you would have wanted them to go to the – you would thought that they have came out there and tried to punch Seattle in the mouth to get that first round by so that they can have a week to rest and prepare for the next the next one. so To me, man, it wasn't a good look for either team, especially the way the other team finishing up the season and they're going to go in and play in these games. Man, it didn't look good for either one of those two ah those two franchises. I expected this game to be a little bit better than what it was.
00:19:42
Speaker
For what it was worth. I thought it was one nose for the Niners. It was... a we think we're the shit and we think we we we're own we we we should get this game automatically. And they got slapped in the face. Like, no, you got to work to get this shit. Just because you blow out the last two teams doesn't mean you're automatically going to be of the number one seed. You could just fall back and just lollygag up in this game. You know what i'm saying? i don't think they played with with a lot of heart. And like I said, Kyle Shanahan, his play
49ers' Playoff Challenges
00:20:06
Speaker
calling was atrocious. Why are you throwing a ball on fourth and one and on fourth and two? Why are you throwing a ball? What are you doing?
00:20:12
Speaker
Why are you doing a double reverse in the second quarter? Like, yeah this is the stuff we haven't done all year. so it's like, it it was just, it was a fury to watch. It's like he was trying to outsmart the outsmart, no motherfucker, do what's been working, do that.
00:20:24
Speaker
So it's just, it was it was very hard to watch, put like that. but I mean, I understand the frustration, especially Like you said, i' only scoring three points against your division rival in, I mean, a very crucial game.
00:20:38
Speaker
A bye could be, especially with San Francisco playing home field throughout, as we had talked about, if they had won. I mean, that could be some crucial home field advantage. Well, and injuries too, Omar, right? You get two weeks to rest.
00:20:50
Speaker
That's the biggest thing, I think. Yeah. in And pro Purdy getting hurt in the fourth. What's up with that, Dion? Do you know what he Yeah, what they're saying is his thumb was done was bloody. They're saying he had a stinger. He's had him before, so we'll see. Purdy, this is crazy. he's only so Now he's 6-2 against Seattle. It's kind of like Russell Wilson, who was 17-4 against – God, I hated Russell.
00:21:10
Speaker
he's He was 17-4 against us. So Purdy was kind of having that same thing. ah You know, hey, it's having that same thing. old mom you I love it. I love it.
00:21:23
Speaker
um ah Having that same thing against Seattle, he's had very good ah winning percentage against him. But, you know, um we cant we're not going to be able to win if if everyone's if we play like this again. obviously I don't care who we play. there's no and And listen to this, though. This is ah something that needs to be looked at.
00:21:37
Speaker
He hurt his thumb, right? on his throwing hand, on his th throwwing in right? Guess where he's going next week? Cold-ass Philadelphia. are you hold that ma And if they end up winning that game and the Bears win, guess where they'll go the next week? Chicago, another cold game.
00:21:53
Speaker
and was a It was it was the a worse loss for them because they could have been... in francisco had it all lined up yeswar boom they wouldn't have to They wouldn't have to get a bus Everything is right there No one to blame but themselves.
00:22:06
Speaker
Three games they're in a Super Bowl at home. You know, two games and they're in a Super Bowl at home. So it's a tough one for them, man, especially with how injured they are. And now they're going to have to to one cold place and a tough place to play in Philadelphia, which is going to be another slugfest. It's not going be some high-scoring games. We know that that game is going to be probably a low-scoring game like this one was.
00:22:26
Speaker
But, damn. I just feel happy. I feel my other thing with this one is I'm actually, if we don't play him, feel confident with Mac Jones, the way he's played his offense. I will say that. I love because Peach's phone is connected to his earbuds. He had to take the phone to let the dog out when he couldn't. To let him in. To let him in. He couldn't say, bloop, bloop. He'll say, mute and off camera. Thank you. That was tremendous. I love you. It awesome. Just checking that the pool's clean. That's all. Just checking that the pool's clean.

Browns getting the victory 20-18. Shador Sanders leading them to a last-second field goal. um And as well, the Patriots blowing the hell out of the Dolphins 38-10.
00:24:51
Speaker
Patriots do not get the number one seed, so it doesn't really matter, but they did blow out their division rival. The Rams 37-20 over the Cardinals. Again, just a little bit of miscarriage. movement there for the Rams, but not much else.
00:25:06
Speaker
Broncos, we'll talk about that one in a second. And the Bills blowing out the Jets 35 to 8. to eight Any thoughts on those you know seven or eight games there that really have more points?
00:25:18
Speaker
I got one. li Liam Cohen needs some ah votes for coach of the year. ah The resurgence of Trevor Lawrence has been brilliant. And then the fall off of Baker Mayfield. And who was Baker Mayfield's coach last year? Liam Cohen. He must be a quarterback whisperer guy. So I know I've been very down on on the Jaguars the whole year because they're roller coaster ride.
00:25:40
Speaker
But there's no doubt that Liam Cohen has done something for Trevor Lawrence. That's true. yeah and He also had a good defense, too. Their defense was top-notch as well to help him out. And what sucks, because Brian Thomas has been caca this year. And I thought after his rookie season that he was going a breakout year. But ah your boy, Jacoby Myers, is basically eating up a lot of his stuff. And the other guy that has been, the rookie they got, ah has been eating up a lot of his his catches.
00:26:06
Speaker
Yeah. So, you know, that's that's my biggest mystery with that one. It's like, bro, you guys are doing well right now. Come on, Brad. got to step up, brother. Come on. Yeah. i'll be And to be fair, he was injured for a little portion of the season as his fantasy owners would know. But still, yeah. got he um he He's dropped. He's dropped just about everything. He's he's dropping dollars at strip club. You know, he's. What you got? I think I yeah, I can definitely say this, man. If you guys look at it, man, I'm.
00:26:35
Speaker
the the the Jaguars and the Texans are the hottest teams in the NFL. I think they both finished with like eight or nine, both wins in a row. It's fucking crazy, man. that's That's outstanding for those two franchises.
00:26:46
Speaker
Hats off to them for making it to the playoffs and playing so hard the way that they did. um You got to look at the Cleveland Browns and get a round of applause to Miles Garrett. I wish he would have got it, you know, last week the week before so that we could have solidified it as, hey, he did it in 16 and not 17. I mean, it's still a feat that's going to be hard to break. You know what I'm saying?
00:27:03
Speaker
mean, No shot at your boy Dion, but damn, he's got more sacks by himself than the whole team combined. You know what I'm saying? He's probably does. He probably does. I've been saying that since we played them. Since played them. and When we beat them, I said, he's still got more sacks. Look, that record, if anyone has anything to say about that, if it's so easy, then multiple people would have done it already. Yeah. Only two people have done it since 16 games. Now he did 17 games. Somebody's to do it eventually. Why not him?
00:27:26
Speaker
and facts and the fact is fuck that i'm happy for him because my ah because michael strahan's record was bullshit anyways as we know wait a second the a the hey the sack looked kind of too it was kind of a little nice anything it was it wasn't as fraudulent as brett farve but okay you get it but uh but also Yeah, I was hoping that he would have had to buy a couple more. And then, i like I said, I would have put him as the MVP. And he did, though. Remember, we were talking about him breaking the record five weeks ago.
00:27:59
Speaker
And he wanted to snuff and didn't have a sack. Yeah, yeah. Well, the B-Devils advocate, remember, he had, like, back-to-back five-sack games against, I think, y'all, right? The Raiders and then ah New England. So it reminds me of when Brian Arakpo would play with the other Redskins at the time. And um he would have, like, a 10-sack season. But, like, he'll have – Four sacks against the Raiders. We're here. 0-0-0-0-1-1-1-10. It's like,
00:28:22
Speaker
no no but I'm not getting away from Miles Garrett. They've been triple-teaming him. Yeah, they have. they had The last two weeks, they were definitely not trying to let him break the record. And then you got to point at this one out, man. this This right here, this stat right here, we've been talking about for the last couple weeks. The Jets not getting a fucking interception all year long.
00:28:45
Speaker
They did. Holy shit. That's crazy. Man, I tell you, man, the four of us could have went out there and got an interception. Shit. I think they have like a ah field goal block return, too.
00:28:56
Speaker
Like touchdowns. And with Aaron Glenn in your coach, too. As a quarterback. As a fucking quarterback. I just want to say, mike here Mikey Sanders still for the Commanders has four picks. He has four more picks than the entire Jets team.
00:29:09
Speaker
That's just, just things like that are just insane. I think the Niners might have them like six all year. We're terrible, too. Yeah, but six more. cause That's still six more. It's insane. six interceptions we didn't get a win in houston and i was like i wonder how many fumbles they had then like what was their turnover ratio yeah like like you had no no interceptions did you have any turnovers in the game like that's terrible like i said like players club when with jamie foxx um uh told ah what's her name diamond uh no no it was john abel when he when he was when he uh no bernie i'm fucking it up but bernie mack told diamond when she got beat like damn did you pinch the You get your ass off, you bloody it all up. What'd you do to her? Did you pinch her at least? Goddamn. Nothing. One of my favorite movies. Did you pinch the bitch? All right. Hey, Chris, look.
00:29:59
Speaker
He deserved it. They paid Deshaun Watson $250 million dollars for getting massage therapists you know, apparently. So fuck it. They may as well pay Miles Garrett $45 million. And he's earned every fucking dollar of it. I think it was $5 million, too. They do better with their money. i think that's good spending. I know i know the 49ers would have rather paid him than, ah was it IUC or whoever?
00:30:23
Speaker
Oh, yeah, yeah. be on that fucking team. Question is, and as we keep coming in the room, ah Mother, I love you. a Question from Chris Haynes. Nothing against me. You might as well say hi. They can all see you now. Question. Nothing against my boys, but who would you take?
00:30:39
Speaker
JD5, Jaden Daniels, or Drake May this year? Why ask that question? Drake May. Drake May is the MVP of the league. The MVP of the league. Whose canteen would you rather have? Martin Shorts,
00:30:53
Speaker
ah was Chevy Chase's. Three amigos. Steve Martin's. Three amigos. Would you rather be a millionaire or broke? That's the question. I'll tell you, at the barbershop, this one guy was like, hey, man, this is long time ago. I never forget. He goes, I mean, people say Jerry Rice might be the greatest receiver. Who says might? but What are you talking about?
00:31:14
Speaker
To be fair, Jaden Daniels was talked about as an MVP candidate last year. But he said this year. He said this year. That's why, come on. Yeah, this year it's not even a question because Jaden Daniels barely played.
00:31:26
Speaker
So, yeah. right that's ah i don't want christie i understand don't i i don't want it I don't want to shit on him that much. He said, who would you rather have last year's jaden daniel oh he did say that oh la or Oh, you know what? me I stand cool at the Chris. So he's comparing the from last year. No, that's not Chris's fault because that Omar read it. I wasn't reading it. Read the damn comments right there. They tried to shit on you and I looked out for you. You know what?
00:31:55
Speaker
I'd still take Drake May. I probably would too. But that's because I'm kind of like my My head is fucked up from this year. Like, I can't just think of last year. So it is what it is.
00:32:07
Speaker
Well, you guys got to ask this question, though, right? You got to ask question with it, which know is kind of apples to oranges, right? What team is better?
00:32:17
Speaker
Is this year's Patriots team better than last year's Washington Commanders team? Yes. Because if you look at it, it's like, okay, you swap the quarterbacks now. What does J.D. Daniels do with the Patriots this year?
00:32:31
Speaker
And I know it's one of those questions, ah but would I rather have, that
00:32:39
Speaker
I don't know, man. Jay Daniels last year was magical to me, man. um He was. I think so. ma Drake May wasn't magical to me. They had a really shitty, soft schedule. So, yeah. You should have known what he did. So, the commanders last year.
00:32:51
Speaker
Yeah, but the commanders also were not a good team last year. They had a bunch of veterans that knew what they were supposed to do. So, that's you got to look at it like that, too. They both played crappy schedules.
00:33:02
Speaker
if you want If you're asking me, did Jaden Daniels have to carry a team more than Drake May? Of course. That's not even close because the the Patriots have a way better defense than we ever had. Like last year, our defense was just as bad as this year, except JD carried us.
00:33:16
Speaker
So if you want if you want that yeah. This wouldn't be a discussion if a lot of those ballgames lost, like the Chicago game, a lot of other things would have went in y'all's favor like it did for Chicago this year. yes So if a lot of of that magical football stuff wouldn't happened for the commanders last year, this wouldn't be a discussion because you might not have made the playoffs.
00:33:32
Speaker
Right, right. and Because I played Detroit when everybody was hurt for Detroit when y'all played them. So got to take that into consideration. There's no Hutchinson out there. let's ah Let's check some of these playoff seeding games then, gentlemen.
00:33:45
Speaker
First of all, Houston Texans clinched the number five seed with a 38-30 victory over the Colts.
Texans and Lions' Playoff Securing
00:33:51
Speaker
C.J. Stroud, look, man, he had a great rookie season. He had a sophomore slump, as most quarterbacks do, we have to be honest.
00:33:59
Speaker
And he's had an inconsistent third season, but has played much better than last year and now has his team at 12 wins. So I know a lot of people like to talk shit about CJ Stroud. I think he's going to be a decent quarterback and a good quarterback eventually.
00:34:15
Speaker
um And I think this season is a building up to that. um We also have the ah the Broncos, excuse me, clinching the number one seed with 19-3 victory over the Chargers. And then lastly, the Lions actually beat the Bears 19-16 to ensure they did not get the number one seed in the NFC.
00:34:39
Speaker
Any thoughts about these three games? yeah they would have So, yeah, the Bears would have had the number two seed had they won the game, but they ended up losing. So they dropped to three, which is, I mean, you know, it's it's kind of like how do you want to look at it, right? You're going to play Green Bay, who's looking really bad at the seventh seed. I'm sorry, at the sixth seed. Who's the seventh seed?
00:34:58
Speaker
but um Green Bay is the seventh seed. No, no. Hold on. Keep going. I'm going to check that. So, good yeah. um But the Bears, again, this is another week where you look at the Bears and you're like, oh, man, you know i'm saying? You guys are supposed to win these games and win this one to to to solidify the number one seed and the number two seed. And they lost back to bats to drop to the third seed. Right.
00:35:21
Speaker
Here's the stat, though. The Bears needed ah Caleb Williams today, guys, needed 270 yards to be the first quarterback in Bears history. to throw for 4,000 yards. Damn, really? felt He fell 52 yards short of that record.
00:35:38
Speaker
He threw for 212. And twelve you mean why is that, Lamar? why is that why did that Why is that the case? It's because what I've been saying all year, for some reason, the dude doesn't come alive until the fourth quarter. They were down 16-0 in the fourth quarter. And then he came alive. If he plays just a little bit decent in the first half of games, they don't have to come back every game.
00:36:01
Speaker
That's what's got to change. I don't know what it is about the first half, but the guy is – ah like a top five guy in the fourth game i don't understand then dj moore get hurt and roma duze didn't play right dj more hasn't been doing shit all year i know because i had him on my fantasy team you ain't and you don't they don't go to him should have kept um what's the name that they sent back to to the chargers and now um he he i don't think he liked uh what's called what's called uh nails
00:36:34
Speaker
Caleb. ken Yeah. All right, cool. I'm going to post the, ah I'm going to post the matchups as we're going along coming up to, but anybody, any other thoughts on those three games? Yeah.
00:36:49
Speaker
No. The Bears one was the most significant game, I guess you would say, because it was for the SEC number two. The other games, you know what I'm saying? it was Those guys were already in. They playing for play.
00:37:01
Speaker
But, yeah, for the Texans and for Stroud to finish the season, what what is it, seven wins in a row? Really hot team. I'm not i'm not mad at that. That's just pretty good. No, chicago oh Chicago, they kept the number two seed. Is that because – I think they kept the number two seed because the Eagles lost. Yeah.
00:37:16
Speaker
Okay. All right. So they would have dropped. Yeah. Okay. All right. I will say this. Omar said something that always gets on my nerves a little bit. He said that Stroud had a sophomore slump. I don't think it was a sophomore slump. I think it was just, he didn't play as good as the rookie year. That's not a slump.
00:37:29
Speaker
That's called a slump, bitch. That's a literal definition of a slump. What are you talking about? No, listen, I'll tell you why it's not a slump. Because the numbers are almost exactly the same from his rookie year there. He took his team to a division win and won a first round playoff game. How is that a slump?
00:37:43
Speaker
That's not a slump. That's just not not as good as the the season before. The results were not as good, but were his stats as good as his first season? Almost. They were basically identical. He threw more picks. Go look at it. He just threw more picks. yet I think he had more yards and basically the same touchdowns.
00:38:01
Speaker
I think he just wasn't as as flashy as he was the first season. Yeah, exactly. with what unit But that's not a slump. I'll say that. You're right. That's not a slump. Like a slump is JD this year. That's a slump. No, and I will agree with you. If that is the case and his stats were similar, and I would like somebody to check that for us, please, and I'll also check afterwards. i Then you're completely right. It is not considered a slump. Then I would then agree with you, yes. And not to mention only not to mention, he didn't have Nico today. He doesn't really have any other, like, guys' weapons. are I mean, yes. So, I mean, get him another weapon, a tight end weapon, ah another receiver weapon that he can, he can you know, help out. and He'll do all right.
00:38:39
Speaker
He's like not a bad quarterback. don't have to perform without your weapons. Quarterbacks go without weapons. Did Tank Dell get hurt this year last year? What? I mean, either
Atlanta Falcons Season Analysis
00:38:47
Speaker
year. Every year. nothing yeah did he get did he get Did he even play this year or was he still hurt from last year?
00:38:52
Speaker
Who? Tank Dell. No, he didn't play. i don't I think he played like one game and got hurt again. He got hurt both years. Yeah. Okay. And I think he broke his leg again. A good receiver that they should go after, they should go after old boy from the Cowboys, man. That would be a nice pickup for them.
00:39:09
Speaker
Oh, crash out? i don't know. his attitude too I read yesterday they're about to they're trying to sign him for two-year. Dallas is working on his two-year deal with him. I read that yesterday. And Dak Presky had to tell him not to take it personal. Yeah.
00:39:21
Speaker
Actually, I want i want the commanders to go after old white boy from the Colts. Pierce is a free agent. That's the guy I want in free agency right there. He's not bad. That's your guy.
00:39:33
Speaker
Let's get into our teams. Dirty Mojo, since we already talked a little bit about your team, we'll let you add on a little more and find out what the rest of the boys got to say. victory of Falcons. Anything else you wanted to add to that game? No, I mean, you know what I'm saying? They finished the season out strong.
00:39:49
Speaker
Raheem Morris is probably going to retain his job. I know i've been seeing a lot of ah a lot of stats that that they're going to probably get rid of Terry Fontenot, which I don't really see why Terry Fontenot put together a decent roster. I just didn't like what the coaches were doing. If anybody wants to argue the fact of him drafting – him drafting Penix.
00:40:11
Speaker
I don't think he's in there and not telling everybody who they're going to draft, the coach, the owner, the um the the president that's in there. like They're going to tell you, no, bro, we don't want fucking Penix. So that's a collective um pick with Penix. So ah we finished out the season, man.
00:40:31
Speaker
ah I kind of still hope that they get rid of him, man. I really do, but not going to happen. Any other thoughts, and gentlemen, ah on the Falcons? Anybody? No.
00:40:41
Speaker
I'll just say the one thing about that game that we didn't talk about. What a resurgence and a good year from Chase Young this year. I'll give him his flowers. He looked great. hours He had 10-pack season. He was great today, too. Yeah, you're right. Had another, he what, sack and a half today? Mm-hmm. Had a big-time batted-down ball and on a third down that I saw. Yeah.
00:40:59
Speaker
So, yeah, he had ah he had a great comeback season. And he missed a lot of games early in the season, too. He did. 10-pack season is incredible. That defense shut down B. John Robinson today, too, man. They had they had him on. They will clamp it up. Lamar, Chris asked, what are you going to do with Cousins if he won't take a trade?
00:41:15
Speaker
Cousins is going to get released. He's going to be a probably a post-June 1st release. June 1st. Yeah. yeah i don't I don't see them paying him $57 million dollars next year. Wow.
00:41:28
Speaker
we've I've heard you guys say names, and and there's names out there that that the Falcons can bring in. like ah old boy from the Cardinals, Russell Wilson, people that you can just um tour, that you could just put in for one year to kind of like wait for Penance to come back.
00:41:43
Speaker
But I'm also looking to see what Penance is going to look like. I know a lot of people are saying, oh, he's no, he tours ACL, what was it, about six weeks ago? I could see him back in OTAs come on July. So I think Michael Penance will be the starter for the Falcons. No chance for a restructure?
00:42:01
Speaker
A restructure for Kurt? No. Because they know he's going to – because I think it could happen. I think a cutting could happen and then ah a re-signing. And I say that because his wife's family is from there and he loves that area.
00:42:11
Speaker
And if there's nobody else, why not? Does he have a no-trade clause? Yes. no He does. He does have no-trade clause, but they can still release him. Yeah, theyre guarantee they're guaranteed money is over. You don't say they they they gave him 180 and a 100 million guaranteed.
00:42:27
Speaker
Whoa, for four games. That's the smartest business man when it comes to football, man. One comeback. They first had when Kirk Cousins threw like five touchdowns and y'all won a game. It was Santa Bay. The real question is, did the pitch drop the last ball for the Falcons? Because on that kickoff, he dropped that. And he luckily went out of bounds. But might be a free agent. So that's the last time he dropped the ball. So let me tell you about this, is that – I don't mind Kyle Pitts coming back. At the beginning of the year, I was like, get rid of him. I mean, he had a good season. He had a good season, and I've always been leery on players that have a phenomenal season. His season was admirable. It was what I want him to do. I don't want him to be some superstar guy out there this year. He did good thing. I don't mind bringing him back. I don't want – Because you can bring him back in a reasonable contract. I would bring him back, yeah. And because his numbers weren't so explosive, he's not going to get like some astronomical, you know what I'm saying, yeah, that's going put us in any kind of debt. So bring him back.
00:43:35
Speaker
I think he wants to come back to Atlanta. I would bring him back. um Atlanta will be looking for wide receivers this this this free agency because, take ah you you know, us susan ray us losing ray Ray McLeod and everybody, we just don't have receiver for except for London. Yeah.
00:43:48
Speaker
I knew that going to happen. knew was going to happen. was waiting for it. Come on, Ray Ray McCloud. Chris, you're not wrong. You're not wrong.
00:44:01
Speaker
Cousins, in his career with the with the the Commanders and the Vikings and the Falcons, has made the most money for the least work of any NFL, or least production at least, of any NFL quarterback ever. He didn't win one playoff game with to falcon with ah with the Vikings? No.
00:44:21
Speaker
when stefan digs made those catches no that was um that was uh that was the cousins no that was uh damn what's his name man would the like the one he gets the saints and everything yeah when he he ran it back twice those two bombs back to back no that was kristen ponder but but no laughs nobody okay thing fuck All right, cool. Let's move it on. Peach, it's your
Washington Commanders' Draft and Coaching Concerns
00:44:48
Speaker
turn.
00:44:48
Speaker
Your Washington commanders actually finish off the season on a high note, winning 24-17 over the year. No. No. No.
00:44:59
Speaker
Hell season is over, but these bastards can't even lose correctly. We got the prayer of a lifetime with the Giants beating the Cowboys, the Browns beating the Bengals. All you have to do is lose and you get the top five pips and you don't. You beat Philly. And guess what?
00:45:19
Speaker
We can't even talk trash to Philadelphia fans. Why? Because all they're going to say is we benched everybody. And they're right. They're 100% right. This was a horrible win. i hate it.
00:45:30
Speaker
I hate this team. But least the hell season is complete. Hey, can I tell you something, Peach? Peach, could i can I step in and tell you something that you're going to fucking love, but going hate it?
00:45:42
Speaker
Three years in a row. Atlanta Falcons had the top five pick. And guess what Dan Quinn does the last two games of all those seasons?
00:45:53
Speaker
Wins them! And we we can hold back. Dan Quinn is going to win that game. Hold on. hold on Radio Raheem, I want to introduce you to Dipshit Dan. That's what he meant, Dan.
00:46:06
Speaker
Dipshit Dan. Stranger Things, Dipshit Daryl, Derek. So, but Dan changed his job, did he not? He's coming back another year. He going to come back no matter what. You know how I feel about that. Yeah, I know. And the problem is they're saying, I think we're gonna get rid of both coordinators, it sounds like, even Cliff.
00:46:27
Speaker
and College offense? What real good coordinators are going to come here when your head coach is on the hot seat next year? So they're going to probably hire within. hire within. it's going to same old, same old next year and another wasted rookie deal of Jaden Daniels. And it'll probably turn this dumbass fucking fan base against him.
00:46:50
Speaker
No, I mean, i agree with you. I don't think you said anything wrong him. Yeah, I mean, it is what it is. I'm used to it. thirty Over 30 years. i mean ah Commander fans, don't get don't be too mad listening to Peach, okay? Because I was at his house when he damn near turned into the Tasmanian Devil when I didn't draft Mike Williams. I got Carlos Rodgers instead. I was at his water right next to him. He said, what the fuck are you doing? Throwing everything around. what hit you This man thought Mike Williams was to be the next...
00:47:19
Speaker
whatever, Art Monk. yeah He was so pissed when y'all got Carlos Rodgers instead of Mike Williams. This is a true story. calm'm down you This is a true story. Calm down, all right? But Mike Williams might have been good if he didn't go to the Raiders, so there is that. but Chris says, draft an old lineman or a game-changing running back.
00:47:40
Speaker
A running back at the first time. We have the worst defense, no demand, and you want a running Ask the Raiders what a running back does in the first round. We're going to just trade for Larry Tunzel and draft for a first-round tackle.
00:47:54
Speaker
but but Why? That's only worked for Detroit with Gibbs. Everybody was like, why would you draft ah Gibbs? Well, hey, it's worked. but that's all m bs on And B-Jaw. B-Jaw, too, yeah.
00:48:06
Speaker
Chris Haynes, never going to be a junior GM. Shout-out to the Fanbo Podcast. What up, brother? We appreciate you. Hey, all – Never mind. I'm not even going go there. I'll be nice to Granger. I want to hear you, Jared. He's mad. All I'm going to say is two words, and it's an inside.
00:48:21
Speaker
Kerry Collins. Shut up. Number four pick of the draft. Kerry. What the fuck is wrong with you? That is a low blow, Peach. you are That's a low blow, bro.
00:48:37
Speaker
That was right after. I said, oh, ah Randy Moss, thank you. And i was hungover that year. Randy Moss, thank you. I was like, thank you. Randy Moss is going back to sleep. I'll never forget that year. It was right after what's called wedding. I remember that. I looked at him and I said, I'm a Raiders fan, Chris. And that is the dumbest thing I've ever seen in my life. He should have been a agent.
00:48:56
Speaker
What do you mean? That's a 15, 16-round pick. That's a free agent. What is a uncrafted free agent is what that Oh, Must have been all that dust. Okay, Chris. Okay, corn, corn, corn. Yep, see, it landed. It landed. It crashed. It crashed. Such good questions. Yeah, good questions.
00:49:20
Speaker
We got the number one pick, Fanbo. You're right. If you heard me say yesterday, I say trade down. We will see what they do. Yeah, we're going to talk down on them. I'm going to talk them a little up, but they're seizing completely.
00:49:32
Speaker
So, look. They won 14 to 12. We won a game. I was able to root for us to finally win a game. because the Giants, some for some reason, beat the Cowboys, and I was able to relax and watch a Raiders game
Raiders' Season Reflection
00:49:45
Speaker
in peace. We still fucking suck.
00:49:47
Speaker
14 points? Is that it? 14 points against a third-string QB in in Kansas City? This doesn't bring any happiness or joy to me. Did we beat our rivals? Sure. The only thing I can say, and thank you, Pete, for bringing this up, screw you, snail. Yeah, yeah y'all suck, and you didn't make the playoffs.
00:50:09
Speaker
But yeah and like I said a few weeks ago, if it wasn't for your sorry ass Raiders, Lamar would have been right about the last place Chiefs. And that makes me sad a little bit because that was a call that would have been like Babe Ruth's home run call. Yeah. Because that was, everybody looked at him like, dude, shut up. Like, are you serious? Did you just say that?
00:50:27
Speaker
you know? So that was – Three games behind. That would have been amazing. And Bobby G, just let you know, I did tune into one of his episodes, said was not the one backing up the Chiefs. He was backing up Walcott Mar on the Chiefs. So he said he's not coming to apologize to you about anything that has to do with the Chiefs. was enough to make the bet. He was mad enough to make the bet. Are you willing to bet?
00:50:49
Speaker
Are you willing to bet the – I don't if he's willing or be not willing. You don't make stipulations after bet. You don't do that. Hey, man. Hey, listen, man. Hey, look. Look, look, look. i made one I made one comment that I thought that the Chiefs weren't good.
00:51:03
Speaker
And they turned that into a three bet. Oh, the Falcons. Oh, they got on bad. You didn't have to bet him. You didn't have to bet him. You didn't have to bet him. You're right. I didn't have to. But like I said, I said what I said. Hey, Dion, you know he did?
00:51:14
Speaker
He did the Reuben. You stole my video game. That's that's the money for that. Like, wait, what? he yeah Poor Stan. Will the Raiders be willing to trade? I hope so. I'm not going to lie.
00:51:30
Speaker
I love Max Crosby. Trade him and get as many picks as you can because you're wasting his career and we're not going to be good by the time he's already 28. But we're not going to be good in the next years. We've still got to build up. Where he's from.
00:51:43
Speaker
hey At least from yeah he' welcome i mean what what's what was's going on because peach made an announcement in the in the um in our in our message board about their coach. I mean, is that is that legit? Are they going to fucking get rid of? a Are they going to get rid of a culture what they again go the getting ready to talk around the organization is that they are going to this is going to be Carol's only year. But my problem with that is how can you, unless you played on, now, if you bring in a new quarterback and you have a coach that you want to put with that quarterback, fine.
00:52:12
Speaker
If you want to get, Tom Brady wants Fernando Mendoza and you want to pair your coach with him, fine. i understand. But unless you're going to bring in a quarterback, you don't bring in a new coach. You only bring in a new coach when you bring in that quarterback with the coach so they can get along together. If you're not going to do that, you trade down, get some picks, build up another year, keep Pete Carroll on one more year. I think Pete Carroll's – honestly, I think he's tired of the year that he had. I don't think he ever expected to have this year, and I think it's going to be like a mutual parting of the ways. Got to be offensive-minded coach. Got to be. you You answered your own question, though, Omar. If they fire pete Carroll, that means they're drafting a quarterback and you're not going get your trade down.
00:52:49
Speaker
That's right. So that's going to tell a big story of the draft. That's absolutely right. You don't want to draft a quarterback with a lame duck coach. Why? No. I wouldn't do it either. And again, as the organization is saying, Tom Brady has his eyes on Mendoza. so Yeah, absolutely.
00:53:06
Speaker
Shout out to Scott Walker, Boxing Media, tuning in on IG. We appreciate you. Walker, what's up, brother? Let's get into it. The last game so we can get out of here. My mom is calling me. making Baltimore Ravens, three and a half at the Pittsburgh Steelers. The over-under, 41 and
Steelers vs. Ravens: Playoff Implications
00:53:23
Speaker
a half. was able find a line today. Shout out to our brother, Clutch B, who is freezing in the Pittsburgh weather right now. Pitcher or never happened. Pitcher or never happened.
00:53:33
Speaker
Shane, we haven't started with you in a little bit. We'll start with you. What are your thoughts on this game? I think the Pittsburgh Steelers lost their chance last week by blowing that game.
00:53:44
Speaker
The Baltimore Ravens resurgence, and now they know they have a chance, and they got that running game humming. Lamar is back. Good night, Pittsburgh Steelers. Brandon, you're freezing for no reason.
00:53:55
Speaker
Hey, I didn't know it. Look at that. Let's go Ravens. Let's go. Reason for no reason.
00:54:06
Speaker
Yeah. You know what? I completely agree with you. beach That's what I was thinking earlier. the momentum which buddy The momentum is turned. Pittsburgh missed a a real chance. last week and Baltimore. Think about this, y'all. With the start they got off to, one and five, we were talking about them for dead for weeks.
00:54:25
Speaker
And they even with Lamar's injury, they turned it around to come back this close. That's crazy. Lamar, what are your thoughts? Yo, I'm with you 100%, Peach. that That loss last week is almost like that that sale that you take that that that that last breath you ran like that you had. That was it. Like, yo, win this game and next week doesn't even matter. You gave the Ravens that extra juice to come in there and knock you out of it.
00:54:55
Speaker
Your rivals to knock you out of the playoffs. Take over when you had the finish line. Like, you could reach out and grab that son of a bitch and be there. Also, here's something that i that Peach has brought up.
00:55:09
Speaker
If win this game, guess who they play? The Buffalo Bills, right? and You said it. This might be the year that Josh Allen doesn't have to play Patrick Mahomes to Lamar Jackson. And if they win that game, guess who Josh Allen has to play?
00:55:26
Speaker
Lamar fucking Jackson. And if they lose that game, what are they going to do, Peach? What are the Bills going to do, Peach? Choke it away. And give up everybody's fire. Get out of here. Get the fuck out of here.
00:55:39
Speaker
fuck out of here. So I got the Ravens winning this game 27-17. seventeen It could be Chris. I mean, it would be pretty remarkable to go from one to five to making the playoffs. I will agree with you there.
00:55:55
Speaker
Clubber your thoughts? um you know I was going up and down as far as this one goes. I will say this, the loser of this game, the coach will be fired on Monday.
00:56:07
Speaker
Whoever loses game tomorrow, it'll be your fire. That's what man, as my brother would say. There you go. Yes. I like that. As much as I love Tomlin, as much as I love Lamar, even though he did nothing for me in fantasy. And yes, I will always bring up fantasy because I won this year with my shitty injured team.
00:56:26
Speaker
I'm still going to go with the Ravens. And I think i think the Ravens, they're more rejuvenated. Lamar's going to come back. I think we're going see vintage Lamar. But if Derrick Henry fumbles in the first quarter, Steelers win. I'm doing a clubber-dee caveat. if If Henry fumbles in the first quarter only, the Steelers will win. But I got the Ravens winning.
00:56:48
Speaker
And I'm going to go low scoring instead of high scoring. I'm going to say seventeen
00:56:56
Speaker
you still think Harbaugh will get fired even with them having the injury to Lamar Jackson? No, no. I love that caveat. The loser leaves town. Yeah. Loser leaves town. It's like let's yeah hair versus hair match.
00:57:09
Speaker
You are on a roll today, Peach. You are on a roll. Loser leaves town match tonight. Dipshit Dan. Loser leaves and freezing. What? Damn, bro. Hey, and lose the hair match. Let's go.
00:57:21
Speaker
Hey, Barbara beefcake. Shout out, Fanbo. Look, I agree with the rest of the crew. Baltimore is going to win this game 21 to 17, a remarkable turnaround to make the playoffs. I'm sorry, Clutch B. I'm rooting for the Steelers because I want you to be happy and I don't want you to freeze for no reason.
00:57:37
Speaker
But I think Baltimore is going to win this game. or Roger's going to be loose too. Does he have a shot to Roger? He's been doing it for the 40 year olds. You know what I'm saying? uh, hey, uh, Not today.
