You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Last week was wild Card weekend, but things maybe getting
wild at Philadelphia, not only with the conditions but players
getting dinged up. I mean, Matthew Stafford's hurt in the
first half. He's in a game, don't worry about it.
But Jalen Hurts just took a hit as he was
trying to evade the pressure from the Rams. You heard
Monty say it's thirteen all and that's where we stand

(00:25):
with two point thirty left to go in the third
quarter and the Eagles now trying a long field goal.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
As they do that.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
We are broadcasting live from the tierreq dot com studios.
Tyreq dot com will help you get there at unmatched selection,
fast free shipping, free road has a protection and over
ten thousand recommended installers. Tirec dot com the way tire
buying should be. And Jake Elliott's forty four yard field
goal is good. That is impressive, especially in this sleek
that we've gotten Philadelphia sixteen to thirteen. Not only an

(00:54):
opportunity to host the NFC Championship game on the line
in this game, but also an opportunity for Carry Rhodes
to have one of his mid season predictions come true.
On the same show that I predicted the NFC Championship
game would be Green Bay in Detroit, and both of
those teams are out. Carrie said, you like the Rams

(01:17):
in the NFC Championship game. They trail by three now
but still a quarter to make you look like a genius.

Speaker 4 (01:24):
Yeah, it's cool when that stuff kind of happens, right,
when you're wrong nine times, but that one, that tenth
one is Reich spot on has a chance to be
spot on. It's always always a chance to brag about
it a little bit. But yeah, no, I mean when
the Rams are four and four, I could see the
tie turning.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
They started to get healthy.

Speaker 4 (01:39):
Offensively, they look like the old team that we are
accustomed to seeing with McVeigh on top of that, you know,
Kyron Williams, is that a great year so far as well?

Speaker 3 (01:47):
But they're playing tough. They're playing fully tough right now.
Let's be honest.

Speaker 2 (01:50):
Though we knew about Matthew Stafford, we knew abou Karen
Williams knew about pookin Nakua. Cooper Cup may have lost
the step, but he's still had a big catch in
the second half of this game.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
They got Higbee back. Yeah, Tyler Higbee back.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
It truly is and a couple of years ago it
was the turnstile that they had at the offensive line.
This is a season, a first season where you didn't
play with Aaron Donald and your defensive line was in question.
And there are a lot of new pieces. Jared Verse
maybe being the most notable. He's been magnificent today. He's
been magnificent throughout the season. Braden Fisk, who they've lost

(02:24):
in this game, has been really good for the team
this year. That defensive line and that defensive front, to me,
is the story with the Rams and why they're even
here in the first place. Carry because I wondered on
how it would be without Aaron Donald just taking up
so much attention on that defensive line. They hit on
their first round pick and the Rams have had success

(02:45):
and they've got after Jalen Urts today sect them five
times so far.

Speaker 4 (02:47):
One hundred percent correct. I mean that pass us has
been insane. It had eight sacks a wee could go
against Minnesota come back this week. I think they got
three so far in this game against the Eagles Baunton
offensive line.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
So it's been a really good so so far.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Now they're playing in sleet at halftime when they were
able to plow the yard lines and clear out the numbers.
And this is what I don't understand, and I've said
it on the network before. I hate this sort of weather,
especially in games that mean something. I think it's fun

(03:20):
on a Thursday night, Steelers in Browns, Jameis Winston throwing
the football around. We saw that earlier this year. It's fun.
But this is for a super Bowl. This is where
legends are made. This is where legacies are and I
don't want teams playing on a skating rink, and right
now that's what it feels like. They're playing at Lincoln
and Financial. I'm not saying all stadiums should be domes,

(03:43):
but when I hear everybody say, oh, I love it,
Oh this is great.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
The fans love it.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
I don't want to see players tiptoeing around and prancing around.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
I want the best of the best.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
I don't want anything to be muted, or to be
held back or have a governor on it. I want
everything at one hundred percent. In the weather, there's not
allow of that for to happen.

Speaker 5 (04:01):
Well.

Speaker 4 (04:02):
I love to see triple axos, So I mean they
hit one of those, it'd be kind of cool. But
outside of that, I mean, yes, as a former player,
I'll be one to agree with you that we don't
like these type of games especially, I mean there's a difference.
So so if there's hard like soft snow coming down,
it can be fun, it can be cool, and you know,
as a kid, that was always something that we wanted

(04:22):
to be, you know, take a part of and be
a part of occasionally. But what you just said, though,
when it matters, you don't want the other team if
you have an advantage to come in and even and
bring down the playing field where anybody could be on
that field and make certain plays. So it does limit
certain things. And as a defensive back, if I had
to play in this later game against the against the

(04:43):
Baltimore Ravens and have to tackle Derek Henry and the cold,
I don't want.

Speaker 3 (04:47):
To do that either.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
That stings in its exactly. I watched the Tuck Rule
thirty for thirty last night. It was on late and
I was watching it and Tom Brady made the point
and I think for a while there was a thought
process that the this sort of weather affects the offense
and it doesn't. In fact, Brady even said because of

(05:10):
the snowstorm that they were playing the Tuck Rule game
in he said, what was awesome for me was I
could still throw the ball with my general velocity. Everything
else just slowed down for me. And as a young
quarterback at that time, he said it made things a
lot easier for him instead of having to worry about

(05:31):
guys flying off the edge. And it's funny, he says
that considering what Charles Woodson did to him, but in
that scenario, he said that he then liked it and
liked it throughout his career because everything slowed down. Because
the saying is the offense knows where they're going and
the defense is reacting.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
Is that fair? That's fair? And that's why Tom Brady
liked it.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
So you're you're out there trying to anticipate certain things,
and you know he just dropped that pass. You're at
there trying to anticipate certain things, and you're already at
a disadvantage most of the times. When the snow comes down,
you're really out there just kind of just prancing around,
like you said, and with the offense knowing where they
want to go. They do have a little slight advantage.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
Saquon Barkley a big factor in this game, with a
touchdown run earlier in the contest, the second touchdown of
the day for the Eagles. They missed an extra point earlier.
But Saquon is effective in the running game, to say,
the least fifteen carries one hundred and five yards. To
your point about Karen Williams right there with them while
Barkley has the touchdown, Williams ninety two yards on thirteen carries.

(06:37):
And I thought Philadelphia's offensive line in their first meeting
was the story. Barkley had two hundred and fifty five
yards that game. But not only is the Rams defensive
line young Philadelphia has got one of the better offensive lines,
if not the best offensive line in the National Football
League top three, top five for sure, So that gave
them an advantage with the Rams at least being able

(07:00):
to answer with their own offense and doing it as
much today.

Speaker 4 (07:02):
Yeah, the Rams run defense has been pretty good. I
mean they say Kwan has one hundred yards, but he
had fifty on one run. So if they're able to
limit the big play, which is you know what say
Quan is known for. If they can just keep him
in a box and have to turn this out the
long way, they have a shot.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
Who Gonnakua drop that past that carrier was referencing on
third and two, not unlike the drop pass that AJ
Brown had, but AJ Brown's was near the go line.
This was just near a midfield for a first down.
Rams and the punting and now we'll pin Philadelphia back deep.
So a minute sixteen left to go on the third
Eagles up on the Rams sixteen to thirteen. Eagles with
the football, but we'll need to go ninety seven yards

(07:39):
if they want to reach pay dirt. I'd be mistaken
if we did not touch on what happened yesterday, because
there's gonna be a lot of conversation of what's going
on throughout these first two games of the playoffs. But Washington,
with the upset of the Detroit Lions last night, Commanders
are in the NFC Championship game. All the talks about
Jade and Daniel yep and the heartbreak of the Detroit

(08:05):
Lions is a real thing. I think that casual fans
feel the heartbreak, and casual fans whose teams aren't in
these playoffs who aren't an Eagles or Rams fans fan,
or a Chiefs fan, or a Ravens fan or a
Bills fan.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
One of the.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
Feel good stories of these playoffs, maybe the feel good
story of these playoffs. And this season is out, and
I think that the loss by the Lions last night,
for as great as the Commander's story is and what
Jaden Daniels has done, I felt that the Detroit loss
hit on a lot of different levels.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
Yeah, the Lions loss hurts for sure.

Speaker 4 (08:39):
I mean to be honest, it feels like they were
America's team going into this run, you know, to turnaround
from where they've been in the dulgums for a long time,
to kind of peek and have some success and actually
have people looking forward to, you know, Watson Lions game.
Lions games are fun, they're entertaining. You like to talk
about the head, hot bike, kneecaps. I know that's all

(09:01):
part of the story. But the product on the field
has been awesome to watch. And for them to come
out and you know, win in his regular season fifteen
games and then losing their first game at home, it's
just it's it's deflating, for sure.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
Chris Purfetts is our technical producer also the host of
the Pride of Detroit podcast, and I want to bring
in Chris because I felt bad last night. I even
I had to watch on a different TV because Paul
Patrol was on the main TV.

Speaker 3 (09:29):
But I went upstairs, Wow, I said, yeah, I said, Patrol,
you cannot touch Papatry.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yes, yes, So I had to watch it upstairs. But
I came downstairs and I said, yeah, I said, the
Lions lost, and I felt it a little. I can't
imagine what the Lions fans are feeling.

Speaker 3 (09:47):
What have you heard?

Speaker 2 (09:48):
What have you experienced, Chris over these last twelve to
eighteen hours since the defeat happened? Is there anything that
stands out in common thread for following the loss yesterday?

Speaker 3 (09:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (09:59):
For fans, it's a a lot of anger, a lot
of confusion. It's a lot of worrying about going back
to to what was before, because you know, you've got
people ready to give Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn jobs
out of this. But I don't know. I think the
personnel around the Lions is still good. This is just
it was a lot of nagging problems that reared its

(10:19):
head all at the same time for the Detroit Lions
last night, you had been treading water and you made
it through, you know, fifteen wins with the defense you had.
As we get a touchdown here, oh safety, excuse me,
I didn't even see.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
Which way the ball was going. I wish it wasn't
touch down.

Speaker 5 (10:37):
Yeah, but no, like you treaded water very well. Aaron
Glenn did a lot with the defense he had, but
Meek Robertson going out that third play kind of felt
like the end that you just didn't have the horses
to race in there, and Jared Goff making uncharacteristic mistakes
after such a good run. I and to Washington's credit,

(10:58):
they played basically a perfect game. They pitched a perfect
game against the Detroit Lions. They did exactly what you
wanted to do against that defense. You can't you don't
have the personnel to rush for you can't blitz.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
It's tough.

Speaker 5 (11:09):
You just ran into a team that was very hot
at the right time, and you had kept this together
as long as you had, but the luck had just
swung completely the wrong way. You got a little more
bad luck, and that was that. It's hard to process, Chris,
It's hard to process r it's watching the Lions as
much as you do.

Speaker 4 (11:26):
Know Aaron Glenn likes to you know, pressure and come
after people, right, Yeah, there's a certain point when you
don't have the personnel to do that. Is he never
flexible in his game plan adjustments and game no. No,
I mean they were rushing. The problem is just like
they were bringing four to start the game because they
knew how good Jaden Daniels was against the blitz, and
what you saw was a clean pocket because they just

(11:47):
didn't have the personnel up front, especially after losing a
Lee McNeil. They didn't have the personnel.

Speaker 5 (11:51):
And then you try the blitz and then it's all
positive yardage every passing attempt. When they do bring the blitz,
it's damned if you do. Damned if you own at
that point and you're down every good CD you have,
you've got two good safeties, but they're getting beat at
this point. It just everything buckled up and a perfect
storm brewed up. And listen, I all, this was the

(12:14):
best division in football. Oh and three in the playoffs,
all double digit losses for the Vikings, Packers and Lions.
I don't know how to process that.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
Yeah, And just to keep you up to day and
when it's happening. In Philadelphia. Jalen Hurts was tackled for
a safety, just basically trying to protect the ball. As
soon as the Rams got their bodies on, Jalen Hurts
votes it's coming. I wasn't going to try to scramble
it all takes the safety free kick. Rams don't takeover.
It's a sixteen to fifteen game. You heard Chris say.

(12:43):
Now it's more snowing than actual sleeting. So this is
the conditions getting worse in Philadelphia. I thought last night
with the Lions and the Commanders, when the Lions were
up seven to three and Golf fumbled on the third down,
that to me is, oh, this is the recipe of
how it goes down. Not that not that the game
was over at that point, but it was. It was just, oh, okay,

(13:09):
Now turnovers are becoming a part of the equation. You
have an opportunity if you get a first down there,
you could go up fourteen to three. Not that you're
gonna make Washington one dimensional in that scenario, right, But
when we've seen the Lions when they get rolling, the
Minnesota Vikings experience two weeks ago, and I thought that
at that point the first time, I was like, uh

(13:30):
oh okay, this is starting to be the recipe for it.

Speaker 5 (13:33):
For me, it was around halftime because I think there
was still a chance to get back in the game.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
Washington was gonna get the ball in.

Speaker 5 (13:38):
The second half, and I know they had tried to
force it down the field a few times, probably the
stretch and set up the run, which, by the way,
Jamior Gibbs, at least that's your bright spot, Like Jamior
Gibbs is amazing. But that pick in the end zone
that Jared Goff threw when you have a chance to
at least make it a one score game before the half,
and they come out of half and get a three
and out too, Like that game could have closer the

(14:00):
half and instead you're just taking too many risks down
the field.

Speaker 4 (14:03):
Well I'll take I'll just make it as simple as this.
You cannot turn the ball five five. You cannot turn
the ball over five time to win a game. Doesn't
matter how good you are, how talented you are.

Speaker 5 (14:11):
They did it against the Texans, but the Commanders are
not entire know that that was the anomaly.

Speaker 4 (14:15):
Yes, but the Texans if they played the Texans yesterday,
they would have lost the Texans as well.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
So I not that Detroit peaked mid season. I felt
they played their best football mid season, and I actually
felt that there was a lot hanging on their shoulders
throughout the entire year. They didn't have an opportunity to
coast at any point because of the NFC North. Yeah,

(14:41):
and so you have to fight off the vikings and
the all gas no break stuff is legit. They finally
get a breather with this bye. But you wonder as
well as how much did all of that toll take
on the team. And I think that it was somewhat significant.
And I'm not making excuses. The only point that I

(15:01):
just I look at night, I see Detroit and I
see how it came out to the point it was
a perfect storm. Washington had none of the none of
the stress that Detroit has, and you don't when you're
a six seed, when you're the home team, when you
have home field advantage, it's it's it's a different stress.
And no matter if you're Detroit or you're the forty
nine ers, you're the Green Bay Packers. Teams that have

(15:24):
been there and you know in the forty nine ers
case have gone to a couple of Super Bowls. There's
always pressure in those situations, and when you have a
team that has nothing to lose, like Washington, it can
get dangerous. And I think Washington goes into if they
played Philadelphia, they play the Rams, they play with the
exact same way, and that makes them really really dangerous.

Speaker 4 (15:44):
They're dangerous, and you you hit it on the head
with the pressure of being, you know, the being the hunted,
Like you know, Detroit has lived off being the hunte
but when you're the hunted, it's a different animal. And
you have the team like team which has a quarterback
that seems to not be rattled or or you know,

(16:05):
the pressure of the moment's not too big for him,
and the rest of those guys start to believe. Then
you have the perfect storm.

Speaker 2 (16:11):
They had every one of the Lions games counted this year,
and then this Washington team rolls in the town. By
the way, I thought it was going to be difficult
no matter how it played out. If the Buccaneers would
have upset the Commanders, I think it would be difficult
to beat the Rams again because the Rams have had
these opportunities with the Lions at Matthew Stafford's return.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
I thought that that would be difficult.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
And we're seeing right now what the Rams are putting
up against Philadelphia. I want to say something else to this,
and I I want to talk more about how things
are playing. But the Rams have just fumbled the football
and Philadelphia is about to bring it back. It's just
how far will they get back?

Speaker 3 (16:49):
My goodness?

Speaker 2 (16:50):
See, this is this is what I mean about the snow.
This is what I mean about it. Like it's awesome
to sit there in your in your living room and
watch this, But this is what I mean about your
skills being muted. Now You're sitting there basically carrying a
slippery rock. That's what you are trying to carry, and
you're getting hit and it is difficult. This. Kyraen Williams

(17:14):
just fumbled the football. And I know if you're driving
around and listening to us, you can't see it. Jalen
Carter does a stretch. If you're Kyraen Williams, you have
to have two hands on the football, yes, in that scenario,
but I think he's trying to make the most and
trying to get rid of these conditions. And either way,
if he has two hands, he's muting his running in

(17:34):
that scenario. I don't know if if it's a fumble
every time that Jalen Carter gets to punch out. But
first turnover of the ball game and now Philadelphia set
up first in goal.

Speaker 4 (17:43):
Yeah, those moments right there. I mean, yes, you want
your players to go make plays. And he's had a
great game so far. But it's second and one, he
gets the first down there, you keep the sticks moving,
keep your hands on the ball, especially in the pack.
You cannot bring the ball out like that, and so
and Kyraen Williams has had a fumbling this year anyway,
so it's you gotta be careful in that situation.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
Well here now, Saquon Barkley has taken his first down
carry down to about the one and a half yard line,
So this is gonna be four down territory. And if
the Eagles score here, I go for two. And they're
kicking a thirty three yard extra point in this scenario, yeah,
sure is no given. And if you go if you
score here, you go up two year up nine. Now

(18:24):
you're up two possessions where conditions are just getting worse
with less than a quarter of football to play, So
we're gonna keep it here. As Philadelphia is knocking on
the door. He is carry Rhodes, the All Pro. I'm
Dan Beyer. It is Fox Sports Red Zone Radio. And
on the second down play, Saquon Barkley is tackled for
about a yard loss. I don't know if there was
a miss block in that scenario or what carry, but

(18:47):
Saquon Barkley, it's hard to take him down solo, but
the Rams were able to do so. So a third
down now in goal from the two yard line, I
would give it to saque again. You've got again, top
three offensive line in the National Football League. Yeah, maybe
top two or top one. I tell you what, in

(19:11):
these conditions, I would do brotherly shove on two straight plays. Yeah,
but they're not. They're giving it to Saquon, who gets
up the middle, dives to the goal line, and they're
give They're gonna say that he's in and.

Speaker 3 (19:24):
It's gonna be hard to overturn in this weather.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
So the Eagles are in the end zone at this point,
and now the Eagles and Rams are dawing. Philadelphia's got
to go for two in this scenario. The extra point
from thirty three yards out, not giving a short. I
don't know how they gonna call this though. The nose
of the football may have gotten over with his elbow
being down.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
Yeah it's close. Yeah, it's close.

Speaker 2 (19:50):
If it's short, it's fourth and goal from about the
six inch line, and there's.

Speaker 3 (19:56):
He's definitely short.

Speaker 2 (19:57):
But I don't know if he's definitely it's just because
his left his right elbow is down and the football
is in.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
His left arm now. But look at this close. Yeah
it's close for sure. All right, we're gonna stick. I'll
tell you what. They took a time out.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yeah, we're gonna take a time out as well, and
then we'll criticize or review or praise whatever the egos did.
But as of right now, off the turnover, the Eagles
have scored twenty two to fifteen early in the fourth
quarter against the Rams. He's carry roads. I'm Dan Byer,
Chris Profetzer, Technical producer, Ian Roddy executive producer on Manci Bolamio.
So we'll be keeping us up to date with all

(20:34):
the happenings that's next here on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (20:53):
We have a situation in Philadelphia. When we left you,
Saquon Barkley was in the end zone. But since we
last spoke with you as we're live from the Tirech
dot Com studios, review said that Barkley was down, So
Carrie was correct on that play. What then ended up
happening as we thought, brotherly shove right, that's right, and
that's what the Eagles lined up to do on fourth

(21:15):
and goal, up sixteen to fifteen. However, the Eagles had
a false start and then we're backed up five yards.
They were forced to settle for a field goal. Jake
Elliott was able to power one through and it's nineteen
to fifteen. The Rams just converted a big third down
in that scenario. Now there's eleven twenty five to go,

(21:38):
the field is almost essentially all white. Carry NBC's broadcast
is having to put the digital numbers on the field
just so we know where the Rams actually are. It's
going to be very difficult for anybody to do anything.
But if the Rams are able to score here. It's
going to make it doubly difficult for the Eagles to
try to bounce back and get points of their own field.

(22:01):
Goals under forty yards I just don't think are possible
at this point. And I know I watched the Tuck
Rule thirty for thirty last night and Adam vinitary kicked
the forty four yard round stuff. I feel that this
condition is worse. I don't know, these these conditions right
here are worse than maybe what Adam Vinitari had to
deal with against the Raiders twenty years ago.

Speaker 3 (22:23):
It's always hard.

Speaker 4 (22:24):
I mean, it's so much that goes into the operation
of making the kick in this in this weather, you
got to you gotta clear a spot for your plant
leg to come through for the kicker. You gotta trust that,
you gotta trust that it's solid enough to actually trust
that step and really power the ball through. So it's tough.
I mean, these conditions are hard to play in him
right now. It's it's legit a winter wonderland. And even

(22:46):
just that completion from Stafford on a third and nine,
I mean, just to even make that throw and catch it,
it's it's gonna be hard to do.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
It's It's why I actually think that the Eagles should
have gone forward on fourth and goal from the six
yard line or five and a half yard line, and
I would have just handed it off to Saquon Barkley,
and Saquon Barkley can get in the end zone. Awesome,
But you would have backed the Rams up. And I
know right now the Rams need a touchdown, But whether
that also does is that tells the Rams, all right,

(23:14):
on fourth downs, we got to be going for it,
so you give him an extra down. I almost would
rather have seen because Philadelphia could have gotten the football back,
just on how the Rams would have responded backed up
inside their own five yard line in a one point game. Here,
the Eagles had to kick off, Rams brought the ball
out to the thirty yard line, and yet it's a
four score game. I just feel that it's difficult. It

(23:37):
would have been difficult for the Rams to operate deep
in their territory, and now it may not matter because
Matthew Stafford was pressured and fumbled and now the Eagles
take over. I have not met someone who cared so
much about his pick then carry Rhoads. I mean, this
guy is living and dying. Why did you wear horns

(23:57):
today instead of headphones because you are all in on
the Rams right now.

Speaker 4 (24:01):
Because I need you're going to bring the HILM and
I'll put that on at some point. But uh no, man,
it's just I am all about the pick. But it's LA,
It's we're gonna we're LA strong right now. You know
a lot of stuff that's happened to our community. I mean,
I think it would be really a soothing win for
a lot of people. And I had that on top

(24:22):
of it. Yeah, that's that's that's fine. That's I'll tell
you what. I don't even know where the egos recovered
the football neither. I have to look at the computer
that's in front of me, so to be first intent
at the forty So that's where they recovered. Second turnover
in as many possessions for the Rams. And now Philadelphia

(24:46):
has it first and ten again at the forty yard line,
and it should be two arms on the football. Yes,
as you're trying to this is this is exactly what
I mean. This is unfortunate that we're not seeing the
best of Saquon Bark, that we're not seeing the best
of Matthew Stafford. We're not seeing the best of Saquon Barkley,
so everybody can tweet on how.

Speaker 2 (25:05):
They love the snow, they love the weather. This stinks
right now because you're this and and again, legacies and
Super Bowls are on the line. It's just everything is
muted and it's not what. Yeah, it makes for great TV,
but I don't watch football as a TV fan. I
watch football as a football fan, and this is just

(25:28):
this is difficult to watch.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
It's ultimate reality. So you know you don't like reality, Dan.

Speaker 2 (25:33):
I do, but that's why I watch Traders in Survivor
and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

Speaker 3 (25:38):
This is different. Gotcha, Yes, gotcha, this is different.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
I won't ruin any Traders spoilers for those that haven't
seen this past week's episode. But Jalen Hurts a short
past Saquon Barkley falls out of bounds.

Speaker 3 (25:49):
It's now third down and five. What do you do here, Dan,
You got to run.

Speaker 2 (25:53):
I would run a quarterback keeper with Jalen Hurts, it's
two downs to get it.

Speaker 5 (25:58):
I'm talking about this in the break guys, like the
field goal that they made, Like it's it's so nasty
out there, Like can you trust a field goal from
anything shorter, not twenty five yards.

Speaker 3 (26:08):
No, not from here at all.

Speaker 4 (26:09):
I would I would, you'll steal got on fourth and
three here, I guess you got to.

Speaker 2 (26:14):
I pumped care giving up twenty yards of You know
how difficult it is to get twenty yards. Yeah, like,
I don't think it's the worst call in the world.
I know that they're in no man's land, but yeah
they're going forth though. Yeah fourth and four. Oh, this
is stale. Big can't kick a field goal because that's
not even that's not even in the thought process. I

(26:36):
would jump, I would have somebody false start to back
myself up, and I would then try to punt. That's
a good play, hard count. So I don't care if
I'm punting from their thirty five yard line. You have
a four point lead. Make the rams in these conditions
go ninety five yards or at least ninety yards.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
The old school, Randy Randall Cunningham, the little pootch punt
here would be would be a good play.

Speaker 3 (26:58):
Well. Sure, at the first.

Speaker 2 (26:59):
They went to agra. Oh wow, is there a hook
guy catching things in the snow? Because the first half
he didn't read it. Maybe caught up an a half
time it's called Frosty the snowmap. First down for the Eagles.
Let's go over to Manzi Milanos with the latest un us.
She's got a record of Manzi cooking up.

Speaker 7 (27:17):
But that was good, carry like that one. Yeah, it
just was quick. Comedy is about being quick.

Speaker 3 (27:22):
It is time.

Speaker 7 (27:22):
It's timing. It's not necessarily about what you say. It's
how quick you get it out. People don't get that.
That's comedy. You can't teach it.

Speaker 8 (27:29):
That was funny, well done, Yes, Dan, listen, you complaining
about the snow, just like, well, then don't let the
Eagles get the number one or whatever seed they got.
Don't let them have home home field advantage, Like that's
your responsibility. Is a team from LA or a team
that doesn't play in the snow, then you shouldn't everyone else.
Don't let those teams that play in the snow and

(27:51):
not a dome stadium have home field, doesn't it?

Speaker 2 (27:53):
But it doesn't get Philadelphia an advantage either, Well it.

Speaker 7 (27:57):
Kind of does. I mean they're literally winning well, but
I don't think the.

Speaker 2 (28:01):
Rams LA based is the reason that they can't handle
the cold weather.

Speaker 7 (28:05):
But of course it is. They're not used to it.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
I think that the as DeVante Smith has just caught
a pass.

Speaker 7 (28:11):
One another one like Jared Jones.

Speaker 3 (28:15):
Look I'll throw.

Speaker 7 (28:16):
Yeah, another one, thank you.

Speaker 9 (28:18):
There we go.

Speaker 8 (28:18):
Yeah, seven and a half minutes to go. It is
difficult to score. You're not wrong about that. In the
second half, we have seen three field goals and a safety.

Speaker 7 (28:27):
That is it. But Philly is on top nineteen fifteen.

Speaker 8 (28:30):
Still seven and a half minutes to go, so we'll
see what happens here. Still to come in the AFC,
it's gonna be the Ravens and the Bills from Buffalo.

Speaker 7 (28:37):
It is official.

Speaker 8 (28:38):
Not that we're surprised, but no se Flowers for Baltimore,
even though there is a video circulating of him running.

Speaker 7 (28:43):
But he was running straight up and down. It wasn't
zig zag.

Speaker 8 (28:46):
It wasn't you know, quick stops or anything like that.
Not that anyone was expecting him. But he's officially out
for the game in baseball, that's right. The rich get richer.
The Los Angeles Dodgers encloser Tanner Scott are in an
agreement on a four year, seventy two million contract. If
you're wondering what the Dodgers luxury tax payroll will be
for twenty twenty five billion. It will exceed three hundred

(29:06):
and seventy five million. The next one would be the Philadelphia,
which is like seventy million less than what the Dodgers are.
I know, I know me, well ye join everybody, Join
every other baseball fan that's not a Dodger.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
By the way, the egos are going to try to
kick a thirty seven yard.

Speaker 7 (29:22):
Field goal here, let's go, let's go.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
You can break the news on what Jake Elliott can do.
Who missed that extra point.

Speaker 7 (29:29):
He did at the start of the game when there
was no snow. Come on, but here he is. The
kick is up and the kick is buen. All that
is good.

Speaker 8 (29:37):
They are up twenty two fifteen now six minutes, a
little over six minutes to go in the fourth quarter
at the Australian Open, Fellas Novak Djokovic won his fourth
round match in straight sets. He's headed to the quarterfinals
where he's gonna face once again Carlos Alkaraz. But Djokovic
did not do his postgame interview with the official broadcaster
of the tournament, Channel nine, because an employee of theirs,

(29:58):
Tony Jones, was on air and said that Djokovic was
overrated and it has been what how do you call
a twenty four time Grand Slam champion that?

Speaker 7 (30:06):
And so Djokovic did not do his.

Speaker 2 (30:09):
Was that Djokovic did not win a Grand Slam event
last year. But I think there could be hard feelings
over in Australia, Covid and when Djokovic did not play.

Speaker 8 (30:18):
But to say he's overrated and it has been, I mean,
he's literally right there, he's one of the quarterfinals.

Speaker 2 (30:23):
I think I think that's disrespectful. Exactly whether it's better
days are behind him is.

Speaker 7 (30:28):
One thing exactly, And I'm with you.

Speaker 8 (30:30):
Lastly here guys in the NBA that he defeated the
Spurs one twenty eight to one oh seven.

Speaker 3 (30:34):
Thanks to you guys, Thank you very much. Lanzi.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
Here's the other deal with this field goal here. It
gives the Eagles another play. And what I mean by
that is the Rams were going to be four down
territory for now on. If the Rams score a touchdown,
they're going for two. They're not they're not going to
kick the the extra point in that scenario. So it's
a seven point game, but it the Eagles. The Eagle

(31:00):
aren't as comfortable or any more comfortable, except that about
four minutes ran off the clock. More still a seven
point game, you got to keep them out of the
end zone. And if you don't do that, then you
hope to get the stop on the two point conversion.

Speaker 3 (31:14):
Yeah. Fourth, I was just gonna say, there's no way
they're going to kick it.

Speaker 4 (31:17):
Yeah, the fourth and four was huge, the one previous
to the one they didn't get here. I got them
a chance to at least attempt that to put them
up by seven. And like you said, I mean, if
the Rams do go down and get a score here,
I'm going for two as well. I'm not trying to
kick a long field, go to extra point the tider game.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
And I know that we may be getting ahead of
ourselves considering how the last two possessions for the Rams
have worked. But at some point you'd have to think
that they're going to break through or figure something out
or be able to hold onto the football in a
certain way. The problem is is Stafford has been under
heavy pressure. Yeah, and if I'm Philadelphia, I am not
laying off that. In vic Fangio, I would bring it

(31:55):
and make Stafford make a mistake with that football. Normally
in normal circuit senses, I think Matthew Stafford would figure
a way around it. Yes, Now in these conditions, not
so much. No, Matthew Stafford's out there. You talk about
ice skating. He is Prampton. He has no footing. He's
scared the plant and dropped back quick enough. So I
mean even just even just his drop, like the time
and of your drop usually is a little bit quicker.

(32:17):
You're trying to make sure you get back and not
slip on your drop as well. So it's a hardhel
of climb right now, all.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
Right, he's Carrier Roads.

Speaker 9 (32:23):
I'm Dan Byer.

Speaker 2 (32:24):
It is a playoff edition of Fox Sports Red Zone Radio.
Bills and Ravens coming up in an hour from now.
But it's twenty two fifteen Eagles on top of the Rams.
Six's eighteen to go, and now what is a It's
not a blizzard, but it is a significant snowfall. The
entire playing surface at Lincoln Financial Field is white except

(32:45):
for the yard lines and the hash marks. The NFL
make sure that the sidelines and all the lines are clear.
Everything else is air for grabs. They could have plowed
at halftime if they wanted to. You're not gonna be
able to plow the entire field in a two minute timeout.
But it's imperative that they keep the goal lines and

(33:07):
the sidelines clear. And that's the focus right now. So
the rest of the field right now is an ice
rink with snow on top of it. Carry up by
Carry twenty five Roads. You can find me at Dan
Byer on Fox. Also at dan Byer on Blue Sky.
According to Manzi makes its twenty twenty five debut. That's
next year on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (33:27):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio once again. Here's
Dan Bayer and Carry Rhoads.

Speaker 2 (33:34):
Well, Saquon Barkley just put this game on snow. He
is Carry Roads and I'm Dan Byern. We both just
with Saquon Barkley. Take it to the house. Seventy eight
yard touchdown run extra point no good. But with four
point thirty six to go, the Eagles have extended their
lead against the Rams twenty eight to fifteen.

Speaker 3 (33:56):
The Rams is gonna win twenty nine to twenty eight.
Smith's extra point.

Speaker 2 (34:01):
His prediction, Man, I don't know why you're kicking an
extra point. I know, I understand, but the Rams are
going to go for two.

Speaker 3 (34:08):
You miles.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
You get the most points that you can and here
Jake Elliott missed it, leaving the door slightly.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
Ajar.

Speaker 2 (34:14):
The only thing that didn't happen is because Saquon is
so darn fast. He just gets to the end zone,
probably quicker than anybody. Lots its hole, dan huge hole
that he runs through and not untouched, but darn near.
There's still four thirty six left on the clock, so
there is time for the Rams. But the Rams have
had difficulties holding out of the football. Eagles forced to

(34:37):
punt on the last possession and they should have punted.
They made the right move, but just stuff to stop
Saquon Barkley and the Rams did not do it.

Speaker 3 (34:44):
There it's tough to stop.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
Moncey Belanios, it's time for a brand new first of
twenty twenty five episode of Corage.

Speaker 1 (34:52):
And now it's.

Speaker 6 (34:54):
Time for absolutely According to Monsi, I love it.

Speaker 2 (35:00):
Here's the great thing if you've ever missed an episode
of According to Manzi, Manzi just says what.

Speaker 8 (35:06):
She feels as opposed to Yeah.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
Yeah, all right, let's I'll.

Speaker 9 (35:13):
Start it out.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
According to Monsey.

Speaker 2 (35:15):
The NBA is dropping the ball again.

Speaker 7 (35:18):
They really are.

Speaker 8 (35:18):
I know we have been complaining about the NBA for
a while that the product is failing in so many
different ways. But one of the big topics is who
is the torch going to be passed to?

Speaker 7 (35:27):
Who's going to be the face of the NBA? What team?

Speaker 8 (35:29):
And I don't see how the league is dropping the
ball because Okac is that team. The fact that Okac
has one game on ABC all season is beyond me.
Okac is exactly the type of team that fans who
just like basketball would want to watch.

Speaker 7 (35:45):
And I know carry knows what I'm talking about.

Speaker 8 (35:47):
They are annoying when you play against them, and I
don't mean that just because we traded a the Clippers
shake Gilges Alexander the future face of the NBA. True
that team that is more hostile according to Manci, that
will do another day. But it's frustrating to play them
because they put effort on both sides of the ball
for forty eight minutes if they have to do it.

Speaker 7 (36:07):
Every single player knows.

Speaker 8 (36:08):
Their responsibility, knows their role and watching them play is
so fun.

Speaker 7 (36:12):
And they're not taking fifty threes like other teams.

Speaker 8 (36:15):
They actually average about thirty eight threes a game, which,
believe it or not is on the lower spectrum.

Speaker 7 (36:20):
The Pacers are the least amount of threes for a
team that they take.

Speaker 8 (36:23):
They take about thirty four and okay, see it takes
about thirty eight.

Speaker 7 (36:26):
So you're not gonna see a lot of threes. You're
gonna see a lot.

Speaker 8 (36:28):
Of effort, which we don't see across this league at all.
And I feel like the league is dropping the ball.
And also have you seen their postgame interviews. They're all together,
they're all together. They just seem like a discipline group
on the court and then a group of friends off
the court, which is the perfect type of team that
the NBA should be pushing for.

Speaker 2 (36:49):
I just want to say this, why when we could
watch Suns Lakers on ABC again.

Speaker 8 (36:56):
Exactly like nobody wants to watch one game on ABC?

Speaker 4 (37:00):
And the crazy part about that is they played the
Calves I think last.

Speaker 7 (37:04):
Year, Yes, and they kicked their butt.

Speaker 3 (37:05):
It was a great game and nobody really watched it.
The one before that.

Speaker 7 (37:08):
The one before that was close. Okay, see kick their
butt in the second one.

Speaker 8 (37:12):
But they're pesky, like you think they're not paying attention.
They're literally in your pocket every play. They're so annoying
and so great to watch.

Speaker 3 (37:20):
Rams.

Speaker 2 (37:20):
By the way, at Midfield just got an eagle's territory
four h two.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
This is not done yet.

Speaker 4 (37:25):
According to Monsey, technology isn't always the ess, all.

Speaker 8 (37:30):
Right, Dan, I don't know if you watch this new
tech infused golf league with Tiger Woods and your buddies,
that was the dumbest you know what that I've seen. Okay,
so these guys are hitting a ball into a screen
and I'm just supposed to be like, oh, yeah, the
screen is telling me where it's landing.

Speaker 7 (37:45):
But then they have a little green like to put together. No, no, no.
If this was the Pro Bowl Games of Golf, I
would be all about it. But this is supposed to
be a league. I was not it. People paid to
watch for golf.

Speaker 1 (37:57):
That is for golf.

Speaker 7 (37:58):
That is not real. I did not enjoy it one bit.

Speaker 8 (38:02):
I was like, this is this is this is just
for funsies, right, It's not for funzies.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
It's not for me either, And I'm a golfing I
know there are a lot of issues they need to square,
but I am surprised that because I think it's totally
aimed on a younger generation than mine.

Speaker 3 (38:19):
That you wouldn't have found them.

Speaker 7 (38:21):
No, I want to see that. If it's top golf,
tom golf is better. Let's fund them to top golf.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
And do that.

Speaker 3 (38:27):
They don't light up and you don't know.

Speaker 7 (38:29):
Carrie, it's awful. It's awful. It's a fake golf. It's
fake golf. It should be the profol Games for golf,
and then I'd be into.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
It, according to Monsei.

Speaker 10 (38:36):
According to Monci, the glass is not meant to be touched.

Speaker 7 (38:39):
All right.

Speaker 8 (38:39):
This is for all of you that go to Chipotle,
that go to Subway, that maybe go to a buffet.
That glass is not there for you to put your
disgusting hands on with your little fingers to point out
what item you want. The other person can tell what
you're pointing at. No, it's not there for you to
breathe on. It's not there for you.

Speaker 7 (38:56):
To be disgusting on.

Speaker 8 (38:57):
It's just there for you to pick your items without
having to touch the glass. And there's some places that
have the shelf in the glass and there's like a
little bit of space.

Speaker 7 (39:05):
I've literally seen people put their hand under the glass
to point out what they want. That is now what
it's there for. Keep your gross hands off the glass.

Speaker 8 (39:12):
Stop breathing on the glass, and don't touch my food.

Speaker 3 (39:16):
The Rams had.

Speaker 2 (39:17):
Gotten onto the two yard line on a pass from
Matthew Stafford to Cooper cub I told you, Dan, but
they're down thirty.

Speaker 3 (39:24):
What do you mean? Oh okay, you didn't tell me that.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
But I'm the one that said they didn't take any
time off the clock.

Speaker 3 (39:32):
And that was the issue.

Speaker 2 (39:34):
Very good episode of According to Manzi, we had to
cut it short, no problem because the Rams moved down
the field. Here's another point is the Eagles are up
thirteen points. Let's call off the dogs. So Matthew Stafford
had no pressure on this drive, found a bunch of
receivers open, and now the Rams are knocking on the door.
The Rams, by the way, are now facing a third
and goal after an incomplete pass down thirteen. But there's

(39:57):
two fifty one and the Rams have all three of
their timeouts. Yeah, I mean you hit it on the
head right, the nail on the head right.

Speaker 4 (40:05):
Like they backed off and tried to play the little
soft coverage Prevan.

Speaker 3 (40:09):
Let them waste time. But if you give it matt
some time, he can make plays.

Speaker 2 (40:14):
Rams third and goal. Will let you know how it
all plays out conclusion of this game next on Fox.

Speaker 1 (40:21):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio.

Speaker 2 (40:24):
All right, we have got a ballgame. Just when you
thought it was over, it is anything but as we
are broadcasting live from the tierraq dot com studios tierraq
dot com. We'll help you get there an unmatched selection, fast,
free shipping, free road as a protection. You know over
ten thousand recommended in solos tirerac dot com the way
tire buying should be. Jalen Hurtz took a sack on
second down and seven lost seven yards on the play

(40:46):
and then they just had to hand the ball off
to Saquon Barkley. The Rams forced to punt and carry
Rhoades in a twenty eight twenty two ball game. With
twenty two twenty three left, the Rams now have the
football with an opportunity to go ahead. They're gonna have
to go eighty yards to do it, but at least
they have an opportunity to do it.

Speaker 4 (41:06):
That's all you can ask for in this moment, to
be down twenty eight to fifteen with four minutes left
in the game and to get a quick answer and
get the ball back even before the two minute one
and it's pretty crazy. And so you know, having a
ball in Matthew Stafford's hans right here, it tends to
go eighty something yards for a win for the Rams.
It's all you can ask for, even though the weather's
not ideal. Still in an ideal scenario for rampants.

Speaker 2 (41:29):
So Joshua Carty was able to make the extra point
for the Rams, didn't seem to have any issue with
the elements that made it a six point game. So
if the Rams do score here, you and I earlier
were talking about the difficulties of kicking the football. It
didn't seem that Carty had any difficulty on his extra point.
That has to make Sean mcvagh feel pretty good about

(41:51):
his situation in if they score of kicking the extra point,
because for a while so we were talking kicking anything
from significant distance seemed to be a crapshoot in the conditions.
At least the Rams got something, and if Cardi misses that,
that's fine. They probably go If they score again, they
go for two. But they have an idea at least

(42:12):
of what they can kick. He made the kick and
it's a six point game.

Speaker 3 (42:14):
Yeah, it's always it's just iffy.

Speaker 4 (42:16):
You just it's is an iffy situation, right, Like if
you get a bad patch of grass, you slip. I
mean that's even in normal conditions. But in these conditions,
I mean, it's just really hard to do. And I
mean even just a snap in the hole, it's a
big deal.

Speaker 2 (42:30):
This is a conversation that I think is significant to
have the Eagles right now playing the defense that they
are playing, not the defense they played in the first
part of this fourth quarter.

Speaker 3 (42:43):
Yeah, they are sitting back.

Speaker 2 (42:44):
They just rushed four on a play that allowed the
Rams to get a first down at the two minute warning.
Does Vic Fangio have to turn it up or you
dialing everything up here? What do you do if you're
Philadelphia in this situation, because getting after Matthew Stafford seemed
to be the way that that they were able to
keep the Rams at bay, and the last drive Stafford
just picked them apart.

Speaker 3 (43:05):
It's tough. It's a tough thing.

Speaker 4 (43:06):
It's a balance in next you got to catch them
off guard. I mean, if Stafford catches them in the blitz,
that's gonna lead their DBS in one on one situation.
So if you miss attack with a touchdown, So it's
a balance there.

Speaker 3 (43:17):
You can't just pressure me.

Speaker 4 (43:18):
I know it sounds like the normal or the normal
response to what Matthew Stafford did last drive, but you
have to be collect It has to be strategic, not
just in an all out blitz type of situation.

Speaker 2 (43:30):
The Rams don't have any timeouts left, but I just
don't think time is going to be a factor with
two minutes left and they've only got sixty yards that
they need to go. Actually take that back seventy yards
sixty nine to be exact. It's first and one at
the rams thirty one yard line. I want to go
back to the Saquon Barkley run because it sounds absurd,

(43:50):
but the drive that the Rams scored on the Saquon
Barkley seventy eight yard touchdown run to call of eleven seconds,
and I joke Barkley was so fast that he could
have left more time o'clock. I am being serious about this,
and just hear me out carry not trying to be hot.
Take guy in that scenario where it's a one score

(44:11):
game and all you're trying to do is make it
a two score game, or take care of take care
of your own business. I don't think it's too much
to ask Sequon to go down at the one yard
line at that point.

Speaker 3 (44:26):
It's I get it.

Speaker 4 (44:27):
I get your logic, like Hindsight twenty twenty type of situation.
But to be bottled up all game, you know, had
the one run early offense hasn't really produced anything to
try to go the distance and score there. I mean,
you know, Saquon's not a guy that really cares about
it either, So you know.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
I get it.

Speaker 2 (44:44):
And what we've seen is Saquon Barkley not going games
because of the rushing record incomplete pass and second and
ten to Puka Nakua, so it's going to be third
down to ten. But we've seen Saquon Barkley take one
for the team. Of course, we've seen him not go
for the overall rushing record and we eighteen. Let's sit out,
let's rest up for these playoffs. In that scenario, going

(45:07):
down at the one yard line in a twenty two
to fifteen ballgame does a couple of things. It allows
you to run forty more seconds off the clock. Worst
case scenario if you score on first down, or you
make the Rams use a time out, something that the
Rams used all three of on the previous possession that
they had to force this punt. So now on third

(45:29):
and ten, so we get back to game action, DeMarcus
Robinson on a slant gets a first down at about
the forty three yard line. So now it's first and
ten with a minute thirty in counting here. But it's
just the point of going up against the clock, and
Carrie Rhodes is losing his mind because Pooka Nakua has

(45:49):
just caught a significant pass from Matthew Stafford to get
them in to Philadelphia territory against Darius Slay and against
both feed and are you serious this excited sharing for
your prediction? Is that what it is? Yes, it's first
and ten now down at the twenty one yard line
of Philadelphia.

Speaker 4 (46:10):
And then it'll be even more of a big deal
because it was twenty eight fifteen and I said it's
gonna be twenty nine to twenty eight.

Speaker 3 (46:15):
Like it's a big deal going on right now, Dan,
here's a.

Speaker 2 (46:20):
Bad call by the officials in terms. Actually Cooper cup
did get out of bounds. The Eagles actually just pressured
Matthew Stafford exactly and they got a four yard gain
on an out pattern. That's what the egos should have
been doing the previous two drives is putting pressure on
Matthew Stafford. I know you say you're worried about the

(46:40):
home run ball, but in that scenario, Pook and Nakua
just ended up going up over Darius Slay yep and
getting the ball. And this last play, which I understand
if you're driving, maybe you're out for a walk or
a run, or doing something maybe cross country skiing, if
you're in a colder part of the country. It's a
scenario where if you're if you're Philadelphia, you have to

(47:02):
make Matthew Stafford feel uncomfortable for sure. And now we
have a procedure false start call on the Rams that
will back them up five yards.

Speaker 4 (47:11):
You can't win a guardian cap ban jump off side.
You got to you gotta do either one. This is
this is a little much. Come on, buddy.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
The big procedure call earlier was and the Eagles had
at fourth and goal, yes, at the one yard line,
and the back them up five yards and then the
Eagles ended up settling for a field goal. It's now
all on the Eagles defense. How easy is it to
turn it off and then turn it on again because
they kind of just let the Rams go down the
field the last time.

Speaker 3 (47:36):
Oh it's it's it's extremely hard. You can't do it.
You can't.

Speaker 4 (47:39):
You can't relax at all in this game. Like every
time you get every time you have a relaxed situation,
teams are going to fight back. And in this position
right now, I mean, this is the playoffs. Nobody's gonna quit.
They're going to keep fighting till the end. And you
give life to Matthew Stafford and the Rams and give
them some room and some cushion to get some momentum going.
Then this is what happens. Now it's a dog. I'd

(48:00):
run the ball if I'm the Rams here, thank you too. Yes,
time is not going to be a factor. Philadelphia is,
I think worried about the pass and all the pass
does is back you up and they should have ran
like which it just did. Jalen Carter sacks Matthew Stafford.
Now you don't have a timeout, and it's fourth and
long and the clock is running. This is it In

(48:21):
any other situation. If I'm Philadelphia and I'm getting my
ducks in a row, I'd maybe call time out. But
you can't call time out because you got to keep
the Rams. Is much off base, But if you're Philadelphia,
you want to make sure that there at least would
be some time on the clock if something drastic were
to happen. But the Eagles aren't going to call a
timeout and are gonna make the Rams press.

Speaker 3 (48:41):
Do you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 (48:42):
Like if you if the Rams are not probably gonna
thirty five seconds in counting, they've got five seconds on
the play, call a fourth and eleven from the twenty
two yard line, and Jalen Carter busts through the line
again and now the pass is incomplete.

Speaker 4 (48:57):
Wo he should have ran it on that third and two.
They're all back in path coverage. It was only a
four down line in there as well. I mean, I'm
surprised that Matt couldn't get a check for the time.

Speaker 2 (49:07):
Wasn't of the essence with a minute fourteen? In fact,
you want to take time off the clock because you
don't want to score too quickly. You want Philadelphia to
be have as little time as you can on the clock.

Speaker 3 (49:19):
Granted, the conditions don't allow.

Speaker 2 (49:21):
You to have the luxury of playing your normal offense,
but Jalen Carter just ripped through the line and the
timing was off and made Matthew Stafford throw it off
the mark to Puka Nakua and the Philadelphia Eagles have
survived and will now barring a fumbled snap. And Jalen
Carter was the star of the Eagles on that final possession.

(49:46):
Now the Philadelphia Eagles will be hosting the Washington Commanders,
and the knee is taken and that will be it.
Valiant effort by the Rams. But it's an Eagles Commander's
NFC championship game.

Speaker 3 (49:58):
It's a great win. Great win at Eagles for sure.
The Rams fought though.

Speaker 4 (50:01):
I mean for them to come out in these conditions
and you know, put that last drive together to you know,
strike a little fear in Philly was was big time.

Speaker 3 (50:09):
It was clutched, but you know, the Eagles got it done. Man,
what a game. That was a good game.

Speaker 2 (50:14):
By the way, thank you Rams and Eagles, and I
guess in a way, thank you Mother Nature. Okay, that
added a little bit of a curveball. But for the
games that we had this weekend, I know, the upset
of the Commanders and the Lions, I'm sorry, it was
just heartbreak. It was it was truly, truly heartbreak last
night for Lions fans. I'm not a Lions fan, and
I felt bad. I see the tears coming. You got

(50:36):
like you got. They're well and they're well enough. I
see it, don't I don't have tears, but I didn't
feel bad. There are two feel good stories in the
National Football League, Detroit out the Window and the other
the Buffalo Bills. They are I know you're looking at
me crazy, and I'm going to tell you something I

(50:56):
want to bring. Ian Roddy, our executive producer in uh huh.

Speaker 9 (51:00):
Ian.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
By the way, thank you very much for the birthday
wishes this week. I appreciate that. Thank you, Monci, Thank
you Mary. Have a birthday, Dan, Carrie Rhodes, this guy.

Speaker 3 (51:13):
No, Hello? What is it? When is your birthday? Dan?
What's the date? The exact date? It was Thursday, January sixteenth?
You're locked in now? Well?

Speaker 2 (51:21):
Thanks. I can't wait for three hundred and sixty two
days from now when I get that birthday wish. It's
going to be amazing, going to hit like what Ian
Roddy was born in the year two thousand.

Speaker 3 (51:32):
Do you when you.

Speaker 2 (51:33):
Talked about Washington football, whether it be the Commanders, the
football team or their nickname prior. What is the greatest
success that you see from that Washington football team that
you can remember in your twenty five years of life.

Speaker 10 (51:49):
I'm trying to say, like, there has not been a lot.
There has not been a lot of success for the Commanders.
I think Dan Snyder bought the team before I was born,
right or was that sometime in the I'm not.

Speaker 3 (52:00):
Sure about the but a majority of your life, Dan Snyder.

Speaker 1 (52:03):
Yeah, oh yeah.

Speaker 10 (52:03):
And I think that fact alone just means you're not
going to accomplish more.

Speaker 3 (52:06):
Yeah, yes he has. He can't even think of a
playoff game, like he can't.

Speaker 10 (52:10):
No, I can't, Y genuinely cannot. I'm racking my brains
as I'm speaking right now trying to think of something.

Speaker 3 (52:15):
I mean, come on in, at least going, Dan, I
know you got it? So no, No, I know.

Speaker 2 (52:20):
Well, they played the Seahawks, actually played the Seahawks a
couple of times in the playoffs, but they lost the
wild card game where RG three's knee just ended up
going out. They had another game against Green Bay that
they played. They had a Taylor Heineke Tom Brady game.

Speaker 3 (52:33):
A few years ago. Yeah, yeah, all these.

Speaker 2 (52:35):
Things are, but nothing to make you think like, wow,
that team was good, that was memorable.

Speaker 3 (52:41):
So I get it.

Speaker 2 (52:42):
But this is a generational thing because there are people
who are my age and I just turned forty eight,
just turned forty eight on Thursday. But anybody who was
my age in the late forties that are now fifties
grew up in an era where Washington was one of
the halves and not a have not, and they went

(53:05):
to back to back Super Bowls.

Speaker 3 (53:07):
They ended up winning one of those. They then went won.

Speaker 2 (53:11):
Two others further down the line within that next decade,
and it was a team that was always in the mix,
like the Niners were, like the Giants were. You could
put Washington and when you're a kid and those are
your most impressionable years, I always still look at them

(53:31):
as having success in winning. So them upsetting the Lions,
even though in Ian's lifetime he can't remember one good moment.
I look back and say, I'm twice Ian's age, and
I can't even remember a good moment for the Lions
aside from losing to Washington in the NFC Championship game.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
Yeah, so it's.

Speaker 2 (53:53):
Difficult for me for as great of a story, and
I get it if you're a Commander's fan on how
long the drought is. But I just think that there's
there's a group of my age and a majority of
us are big football consumers. Right now, we'll still look
back to when we were ten and look back to
when we were twelve and thirteen, and remember Washington going
to Super Bowl twenty two, Washington going to Super Bowl

(54:14):
twenty six, and it's tough to think of. Okay, now
they're the Cinderella team. I know it's not fair. I
know it's not crazy. It's crazy, but that's I think
that's when you grow up in a certain era, when
you are young, those things resonate the most with you
and my generation I think feels that way about Washington.

Speaker 4 (54:34):
And it's crazy about what you just said is could
I could vividly see Super Bowl twenty six Mark Rippin
the Redskins versus the Bills. It was the Bills and
me being upset because I was a Bills fan at
the time because my dad went to he played with
the tight end Keith mckeller. Oh, Buffalo, That's all I remember,

(54:56):
like rooting for Buffalo at the time, and Mark Ripkin
and the Big Hogs. Oh yes, there is a lot
of luster with that organization around that time, and to
see where it is right now and to kind of
be along that journey, like you said, I mean me
and my forties as well, kind of on the tail
a little bit removed from you a couple of years.
That's a couple of years, but having that same core memory.

(55:17):
It's crazy.

Speaker 3 (55:18):
The tough too, the tough part as well.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
And Dan Campbell Mike's Silver highlighted this in its tweet
this past weekend. Mike's covered the NFL for decades, but
pointing out that Dan Campbell told this team last year
in the NFC Championship game that this may be the
only chance they get at a super Bowl, which is
weird phrasing, but it's a reality. And it shows you
this year where a season goes almost as right as

(55:41):
you can except for the injuries. But they got the
number one seed, they got a home field advantage, they
actually had an upset in the first round of the
playoffs where you're thinking that's an advantage, maybe you don't
have to play a better team, and they still couldn't
do it. It tells you how finnicky it is, but it's
also a lesson to Washington and I don't want to
rain on Washington's parade. Will give them flowers all week long,
but for the overboard the stuff that we go overboard

(56:03):
with Jayden Daniels, and rightfully so because he's been great,
you also have to remember that this may not happen
every year. It's the old Dan Marino story. Super Bowl
in a second season, how many of these is he
going to go to? It's a very good lesson for
Washington and Jaden Daniels to realize, Yep, this is probably
not going to happen every year, and in fact, it's

(56:24):
probably not going to happen as much as the opposite end,
one hundreds of being knocked out. And I think that's
something that they need to take going into the NFC
Championship game in Philadelphia.

Speaker 10 (56:34):
Will you guys remember when Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati
Bengals they went to the Super Bowl in his second
year and they haven't been back since.

Speaker 4 (56:40):
Yeah, it's hard, and you talk about what you just
say as a critical pivotal point. For sure, you start
to get accustomed to certain people being there every year.
The Chiefs now when Tom Brady played and you're like, oh,
this can happen.

Speaker 3 (56:54):
That doesn't happen.

Speaker 4 (56:56):
So you have to actually celebrate those moments as well,
as much as I hate that Chiefs, the fact that
they're there, as much as they are, like, celebrate those moments.
Because Jayden Daniels having a superletive year this year. Even
this year alone, there was moments where we thought he
was regressing and we thought it was a flash in
the beginning. Now he's shown that he is that guy.

(57:19):
But this thing doesn't happen every year. So you got
to cherish these moments.

Speaker 2 (57:22):
And they will have to cherish it after the season
is done, yes, because they've got work to do to
face their division rival team that they beat towards the
latter half of the season and split their season series.

Speaker 3 (57:35):
And it should be a good one.

Speaker 2 (57:36):
Next week on Fox, the NFC Championship Game is going
to be the first of the two championship games, the
second one obviously in Kansas City, awaiting the winner of
that Bill's Ravens game. All Right, so three of the
four spots are filled. There's a lot that we could
we can dive into. But coming up next we have
to get to our weekly game. Adam kaplan our NFL inside,

(57:59):
It's going to join us last hour. Carry is fresh
off of his first perfect score of twenty twenty five
of easy as one, two, three, four.

Speaker 3 (58:08):
I'm scared.

Speaker 2 (58:09):
Did we tighten the screws this week? Find out next
year on Fox Sports Radio, Fox Sports Red Zone Radio.
Three down and one to go, Getting ready for the
Ravens and the Bills. After the Eagles survived against the Rams,
Ups and downs and I give two of the cap
to Carry Rhodes for his belief in the Rams. Not

(58:31):
only did he call them in the NFC Championship Game,
even though they didn't make it, they put forth quite
an effort. He said that mid season, as soon as
Saquan scored in the Egos missed the extra point twenty
to fifteen, Carrie said, Rams are going to win twenty
nine to twenty eight. They weren't down close to maybe
pulling it off, but Jalen Carter wreaking havoc at the
end and helping that Egos defense get the stop that

(58:54):
they needed. So Philadelphia is in the NFC Championship Game,
and for the second time in three years, they will
be hosting that game. They'll do so against the Washington
Commanders coming up next Sunday in the first of two
conference championship games. But it's the only one that you
will see on Fox. We are a lot from the
tirerec dot Com studios, hit carry out at Carrie twenty
five Roads. You can find me at dan Byer on Fox.

(59:17):
Let's get the Fox family together and play a fun
game of easy as one, two, three, four Carrie Rhodes
perfect score of ten last week. Honestly, I didn't tighten
the screws this week. I felt that there was enough
topical stuff that we could talk about that would fit
perfectly into the questions. Now, I'm not saying the questions

(59:37):
are easy. Some of you may know, some of you
may not. But if you don't, you have three lifelines.
You've got Manzi Bolanos and then you've got Mary Mack
and Ian Roddy, both young.

Speaker 3 (59:49):
Not saying Manzi isn't hey.

Speaker 7 (59:52):
I was about we know Mary, tell you don't have
three lifelines right now, Carrie, Oh.

Speaker 3 (01:00:02):
I was waiting on now Dan Byer was forty eight
years old. That's uh.

Speaker 2 (01:00:07):
It was because Mary is Mary, I'm young. Mac.

Speaker 7 (01:00:11):
No, you're dead to me, Dan.

Speaker 3 (01:00:16):
The headstone reads I walked into that one.

Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
Oh my goodness, I'm sorry, MONSI her birthday is coming
up next week. Maybe don't try right now. You know
I was gonna say, Mary, maybe Carrie won't text you
on your birthday. I want to text Manzi for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:00:33):
Yeah, he is.

Speaker 7 (01:00:33):
You should.

Speaker 3 (01:00:34):
I feel the steam coming through the other side of
the glass.

Speaker 2 (01:00:36):
So, yes, Ian was born in two thousand.

Speaker 3 (01:00:40):
I'm sorry. It still messes with my head. That's all.
That's all that I'm saying. All that I'm saying A
graduating in two thousand.

Speaker 7 (01:00:47):
Oh no, no, he was born.

Speaker 3 (01:00:48):
He was born in two thousands.

Speaker 10 (01:00:50):
Yeah. I definitely didn't graduate two thousands.

Speaker 3 (01:00:53):
No, No, I was confusing because I graduated two thousand.
Don't ask when Mary Mack was born. Don't even ask.

Speaker 2 (01:00:58):
I don't ask three years two thousand and three. Yeah, yeah,
don't ask when Montsi was born. We would yeah, do not.

Speaker 7 (01:01:07):
Do not do that. I not a really fun joke
when I tell about this. I'm not gonna say it
on air.

Speaker 2 (01:01:11):
Go Mons, you're not even old, Dan, ber Dan.

Speaker 11 (01:01:22):
You gotta you gotta make it up some kind of way.
I don't think I can know what you're going to do.
That's the problem. All right, Carry's got to get a
perfect score of ten. He's got three lifelines, even though
I don't. If you have any problem with the question,
you can ask one of them. I'm not gonna give
you all the correct answers, just some of them. Let's
see how you do, all right, Carrie, name one of

(01:01:42):
two teams and men's are women's college basketball that's currently
ranked number one in the AP poll. So essentially, give
me the top ranked team and out of the men's
or women's college basketball, right.

Speaker 2 (01:01:56):
I'll just to be safe, all right. Yeah, show me Auburn. Yes,
there it is Auburn number one of the men's poll.

Speaker 3 (01:02:04):
Do you know who? Do you have an inkling on?

Speaker 9 (01:02:06):
Who?

Speaker 3 (01:02:06):
The women's I.

Speaker 12 (01:02:07):
Do I have an inkling? It was UCLA. I want
to play it is, Yes, it still is. We'll be
playing tomorrow afternoon on Fox. By the way, all right,
Question number two, Carry, name two of the three Eastern
Conference front court players to be in the top three
of All Star Game voting so far this season, third
round of ballots were in, So who are the top

(01:02:29):
three vote getters right now? I need two of the
three for the Eastern Conference front court.

Speaker 3 (01:02:35):
Front court.

Speaker 4 (01:02:36):
I would say Yannis is one, okay, and I'd probably
say Jason Tatum.

Speaker 3 (01:02:42):
Those are your final answers.

Speaker 2 (01:02:43):
Yes, show me Yannis three point five million votes, good work,
carry Roads. Show me Jason Tatum. Yes, there he is
at number two, two point eight million. Do you know
who's third? As you shimmy, do you know who'd go ahead?

Speaker 7 (01:03:00):
I'm surprised Jason Tatum is too. I'm gonna assume Carl
Anthony Towns.

Speaker 3 (01:03:05):
That is correct.

Speaker 7 (01:03:06):
Job, that was gonna that was gonna be one.

Speaker 3 (01:03:11):
Sure Boston fans vote for sure.

Speaker 7 (01:03:13):
You're right, fan voting, You're right, you're right.

Speaker 3 (01:03:15):
Well, what was interesting? Paolo Benko is fourth.

Speaker 7 (01:03:18):
He's amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:03:19):
He's been hurt though, eligible yes, yeah, yes, but you're right.
I mean he spent he was out for you know,
a fair amount of the first half of the season.
So Joel Embid spent out too. He's ninth in voting.

Speaker 7 (01:03:32):
Wow, he's played thirteen games.

Speaker 2 (01:03:34):
Well that's not like Paulo's. It's the point is, I
think I think all of that Joel Embiid stuff it
is has now gotten into the to the fan base
where nobody is like it. Is I love Joel embiding
ninth in voting. That's crazy, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:03:47):
Truly is all right?

Speaker 2 (01:03:48):
Carrie is is three for three, off and running Carrie.
Question number three named three of four NFL teams that
Washington has played when they've made the Super Bowl?

Speaker 3 (01:04:00):
Okay, Buffalo is one that was earlier.

Speaker 2 (01:04:03):
I was so trying not to say anything. Maybe you
check the tape.

Speaker 3 (01:04:07):
I stopped myself. All right, who did you need? Three
or four? Right? Doug Williams? Who did he beat in
the Super Bowl? You got three lifelines?

Speaker 2 (01:04:20):
None of these literally three three young life lines, exactly three.

Speaker 3 (01:04:28):
This is going to be the one lifelines.

Speaker 4 (01:04:30):
Okay, let me let me, let me get my mind. Yeah,
because obviously Buffalo that's one. The Doug Williams one. Who
did they play in.

Speaker 3 (01:04:38):
The Super Bowl? Wow, damn you might have No.

Speaker 4 (01:04:45):
I don't have anybody that can give me any Come on, Massey,
give me something, give me.

Speaker 7 (01:04:49):
A year, and then I'm going to help you out.

Speaker 2 (01:04:50):
Maybe it was eighty eighty seven, Okay, that's correct. I
just can't think of it.

Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
Is it was all right?

Speaker 7 (01:05:01):
The Cowboys weren't good at that time.

Speaker 3 (01:05:03):
No, that's NFC. You gotta think a f c AFC.

Speaker 7 (01:05:06):
I see we're at the super Bowl, at the super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (01:05:08):
Yes, yeah, So who did Washington play in.

Speaker 7 (01:05:11):
The Super Bowl? I was I thought I misundersaid. I
thought it was who they beat to go to the
super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (01:05:16):
Oh damn, you might have me on this one, Patriots.

Speaker 4 (01:05:21):
I was thinking Bengals, But I know the Bengals play
at the forty nine ers and I'm not I'm and
it could be.

Speaker 2 (01:05:27):
Oh.

Speaker 10 (01:05:30):
I don't want you to use up one of your
lifelines on it, but I have a suggestion, but I
don't want to waste Yeah, Raiders, Raiders.

Speaker 7 (01:05:38):
Maybe let's that seems like a possibility.

Speaker 4 (01:05:44):
And I don't want to say completely set you out
and say no, but I would think, no, I'm gonna go.

Speaker 1 (01:05:48):
Bank me out.

Speaker 2 (01:05:48):
Okay, you're gonna go bank. I need three or four?
So you need the Rills, Bengals? And who did you
want to go?

Speaker 9 (01:05:55):
Raiders?

Speaker 3 (01:05:55):
You want to go elsewhere?

Speaker 4 (01:05:58):
Let's go else where. Let's go, We'll go ian Ian King.
Show me the Buffalo Bills. They are super Bowl twenty six.
Carry remembers it, Fondlee, Yes, show.

Speaker 3 (01:06:12):
Me the Raiders.

Speaker 2 (01:06:14):
Yes, it is super Bowl eighteen. The Los Angeles Raiders
who By the way, Monzi was talking about conference championship games.
They beat the Seahawks in the AFC Championship Game to
get to that Super Bowl, And is it the Cincinnati Bengals.

Speaker 9 (01:06:29):
No, it is not.

Speaker 2 (01:06:31):
He got two points out of that one. They've played
the Dolphins twice. They lost in Super Bowl seven and
the Dolphins perfect season, but then got revenge in Super
Bowl seventeen. John Riggins the Super Bowl MVP, and Doug
Williams beat the Denver Bronco. It was the Bronco thirty
five point second quarter for Washington in San Diego to

(01:06:51):
win Super Bowl twenty two.

Speaker 3 (01:06:53):
Why can I not remember the did?

Speaker 10 (01:06:56):
The Raiders are also another example of a franchise I
feel like used to be really good in my lifetime
and Mary's lifetime, just not really.

Speaker 2 (01:07:03):
Yeah, absolutely yes, made it to Super Bowl thirty seven
and then we're beaten by the Buccaneers that year tuck rule.
We talked about the year prior making it to the
Divisional Championship. But all right, you got two points there,
five out of six. Final question? Name four of the
five NFL teams Patrick Mahomes has faced in the AFC Championship.

Speaker 4 (01:07:27):
Game Buffalo, Cincinnati, Baltimore, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Baltimore, Buffalo, Cincinnati, Baltimore.

Speaker 3 (01:07:44):
Name four of the five NFL teams.

Speaker 2 (01:07:45):
Patrick Mahomes is faced in the AFC champion.

Speaker 3 (01:07:49):
In New England. Yeah, New England. All right.

Speaker 2 (01:07:52):
Show me the Patriots, all right, that was the first
one they ended up losing. Show me the Cincinnati Bengals
not once but twice once lost another. Show me the
Buffalo Bills. That was the blowout game that was not
the thirteen second game. Yeah, and show me the Baltimore Ravens.
That was last season for nine out of ten, very

(01:08:15):
good score. Do you want to guess who the other
one was the other one? People forget about this year?

Speaker 3 (01:08:22):
What year? Tim?

Speaker 1 (01:08:23):
Many?

Speaker 9 (01:08:23):
Year? Dan?

Speaker 3 (01:08:24):
We already we already figured out.

Speaker 2 (01:08:25):
Yeah, the year was twenty nineteen. Season playoff game took
place in twenty twenty twenty twenty January nineteenth, twenty twenty.
Today's the five year anniversary of this game.

Speaker 13 (01:08:40):
Wow, there, you're gonna kick yourself that as hard as
Manti's gonna kick me when Yeah, talk about bludgeon, that's
what's gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (01:08:51):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:08:52):
Tennessee Titans, Tennessee how they upset the Ravens.

Speaker 3 (01:08:55):
Yes, I do.

Speaker 7 (01:08:57):
How was that year?

Speaker 2 (01:08:57):
Yes, God, Tennessee Titan and so no, I wouldn't have
gotten that one, Dan, and then the Chiefs.

Speaker 3 (01:09:03):
Ended up winning thirty five to twenty four. You know
the crazy part I was.

Speaker 4 (01:09:07):
I was going to say New England because I was thinking,
I know Tom Brady beat him, right, but I didn't
know if it was a new He beat him in
Tampa in the.

Speaker 3 (01:09:13):
Super Bowl, right, and then he beat Chiefs.

Speaker 2 (01:09:14):
Yes, but that that Tennessee run was they beat New
England that year, and then they Tennessee went and beat
Baltimore and then made it.

Speaker 3 (01:09:21):
To the championship game.

Speaker 14 (01:09:24):
There.

Speaker 2 (01:09:24):
It is nine out of ten. Great job carry outs.
Not as great of a job as Monty Bolanos is
about to live from the tire Ac dot Com studios.

Speaker 3 (01:09:32):
She's here to give us an I'm dated.

Speaker 7 (01:09:36):
He's going to have a cavity once were gone.

Speaker 8 (01:09:39):
It was like very awkward to say straight up.

Speaker 7 (01:09:44):
Ian and Mary both young, both young.

Speaker 8 (01:09:47):
Right after introducing me, mont boloans at the news desk
and Ian and Mary who are both young? That's right, geez,
you don't know the accolades like you, not yet about Aclye,
but don't try to defend him.

Speaker 1 (01:10:02):
Marry.

Speaker 8 (01:10:02):
Everybody say women power, women in powerments for merry exactly.

Speaker 7 (01:10:08):
Thank you.

Speaker 8 (01:10:11):
Let's move on here and then we'll make Dan feel
uncomfortable again in about five minutes.

Speaker 2 (01:10:16):
I feel bad, That's all I feel.

Speaker 7 (01:10:18):
Yeah, yeah you shud yeah shut ah ah. The NFC
Championship Game is set, Fellas.

Speaker 8 (01:10:26):
The Eagles will be hosting the Commanders next Sunday. Because
Philadelphia just defeated the LA Rams twenty eight to twenty
two in an absolute winter wonderland Saquon Barkley, I mean really,
the Rams just could not stop him, not just in
this game, but in the first game that they saw them,
that they saw each other in the season. He ended
with this game twenty six carries, two hundred and five

(01:10:47):
yards and two touchdowns. He had a sixty two yard
rushing touchdown a seventy eight yard rushing touchdown. In both
games he had fifty two carries, five hundred and thirty
four yards and four touchdowns and two games in two
games against the Rams. Wow, unreal. Jalen Hurts in the win,
who I think got a little hurt really like his Yeah,

(01:11:07):
his ribs fifteen of twenty one hundred and twenty eight yards,
seven carries, seventy yards, one touchdown on the ground, forty
four yard run is what that touchdown was to start
the game off for the Eagles.

Speaker 7 (01:11:19):
So we're about to kick off though.

Speaker 8 (01:11:21):
In the AFC Divisional Round, Ravens and the Bills nose
flowers as expected for Baltimore. In men's college hoops, we
got one game going on number twenty five Baylor defeating
TCU fifty six to fifty halfway through the second half.
But number twelve Michigan State on an eleven game win streak.
They're undefeated in the Big Ten. They took down number

(01:11:43):
nineteen Illinois eighty to seventy eight. And now I'm gonna give
you some women's college hoops information right now, fellas USC
held on to defeat Indiana seventy.

Speaker 7 (01:11:51):
Three sixty six. Juju watch Juju.

Speaker 8 (01:11:53):
Watkins twenty two points and six rebounds. Ukon crushed Seaton
Hall ninety six to thirty six. Paige Beckers had eighty points.
She has reached two thousand points in one hundred and
two games, surpassing Maya Moore as the fastest yugone player
to reach two thousand points in program history.

Speaker 4 (01:12:09):
Let me put you on the spot, real key, Misgan
State has an eleven game winning streak. Do you think
that's the longest in the nation right now or somebody
else has one that that's a little bit longer than that.

Speaker 7 (01:12:20):
I think they may be the one.

Speaker 3 (01:12:22):
Duke just one yesterday and one twelve in a row,
twelve in a row. Duke good is see Duke doing well?
They haven't been.

Speaker 7 (01:12:28):
Since JJ reddick.

Speaker 2 (01:12:30):
Yeah, gosh, the team has been on a hard time
s lately.

Speaker 7 (01:12:34):
Good really has been good for them.

Speaker 2 (01:12:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:12:36):
Win NBA game going on, Fella's magic on top of
the Nuggets thirty five thirty early in the second quarter
and the he defeated the Bulls already one twenty eight
to one oh seven.

Speaker 7 (01:12:44):
Back to you guys, thank you very much more to carry.

Speaker 3 (01:12:49):
Deservedly so Carry Roads the all pro.

Speaker 2 (01:12:52):
I'm Dan Byer with my foot in my mouth, Live forth,
tirerec dot Com Studios. Carrie's got to speak up on
some things. Are NFL in, said Adam Kapnall joinas next hour,
But Carrie is ready to be on one oh yeah.
Our second edition in twenty twenty five of Carry On
is next is the Ravens and Bills kickoff. Stick around
here on Fox Sports Red Zone Radio, we have a

(01:13:15):
touchdown in Buffalo. It is Fox Sports Red Zone Radio.
I'm Dan Beyer. He is Carrie Rhodes, the All Pro
spending his career with the Jets and Cardinals. And it's
the Baltimore Ravens who get into the end zone. Opening
drive on a third and three from the Buffalo sixteen
yard line, Aamar Jackson hits for Shad Bateman for six

(01:13:38):
extra point coming up. Baltimore scoring on an eight play
drive that took up four minutes and twenty seconds covering
seventy three yards, and Justin Tucker's extra point is good
on a cold, frigid night in Buffalo. So the Ravens
getting out to the start that they wanted. Yes, I
just I don't see tons of recipes for Buffalo to

(01:13:59):
win this game. Baltimore comes in as the road favorite.
This definitely, Baltimore scoring on their opening drive does not
play into the recipe that I think Buffalo needs to
win this game one.

Speaker 4 (01:14:11):
Hundred percent correct. I mean, obviously, you know Baltimore has
been known to get tight in certain situations. The fact
that they came out right here, open and drive, take
it down the field in Buffalo cole snowy. People talking
about the weather the field being a problem, and they
marched the ball right down the field, open and drive.
That's that's a bad omen for Buffalo.

Speaker 2 (01:14:31):
So Raven's up seven to nothing. It's the final of
our divisional playoff games. If you missed it earlier, the
Eagles held off the Rams twenty eight to twenty two
in a crazy game that was affected by the weather
and mother Nature. Started out fine, but by the end
of the game the field was entirely white, looked like
a skating rink. But it's the Eagles defense that rose

(01:14:53):
to the occasion, specifically Jalen Carter when they needed to,
getting a sack and a pressure on Matthew Stafford on
their final time to hold on for the six point victory.
So the Eagles get the Commanders coming up on Sunday
while the Chiefs await the winner of this Ravens Bills game.
We debuted a new segment last week for Carry Rhodes
and it was so good we brought it back for another.

(01:15:13):
Let's roll with it. My mom says, carry on. She
just wants to not carry on and off. She just
wants to carry on, carry on.

Speaker 10 (01:15:24):
That was my suggestion last week.

Speaker 2 (01:15:26):
Ian and my mom, thank you mama, byer both young
thinking alike. Yes, there it is. I am not making
that mistake anymore. Ever, Ever, all women are young, that
is the state are young. Yes, all right, carry I'll
give you five topics. You tell me if you're on

(01:15:48):
board with it or not. Jared Goff as a top
quarterback in the National Football League, you still believe in that.

Speaker 3 (01:15:56):
I'm going to carry on with that one, all right.

Speaker 4 (01:15:59):
I'm not going to be one of those guys that
that's a prison of the moment and when when somebody
has a bad game, bad moment, just cast them cast
him into uh the land of furiosa.

Speaker 3 (01:16:11):
I'm not gonna do that.

Speaker 2 (01:16:12):
I'm gonna Sayanci, he's keeping just after a bad moment.
No one's casting. Oh yeah, we're not gonna cast you.
Golf is a good he's a good quarterback. It's one
of the top quarterbacks in the league. He's proved it
the last couple of years. He's had a bad moment
in this playoff run. We all have him. I'm not
done with Jared Goff. Yet so last week we gave
you a topic, Dion Sanders in Las Vegas. Yeah, that

(01:16:34):
doesn't seem like a realistic possibility. Dion in Dallas could
be you on board with that or not. I'm gonna
carry on with that one, all right. Dion in Dallas
makes sense.

Speaker 4 (01:16:48):
He's played there, he has roots, he actually cares about organization,
who won a Super Bowl there, one of the top
players ever in the NFL, high profile college coach and
having a great career start there, going to Dallas, having
his son, bring a son on board.

Speaker 3 (01:17:04):
I could see that working in Dallas.

Speaker 2 (01:17:05):
Do you think that there would be any added benefits
free agent wise with having Dianna as a head coach?

Speaker 3 (01:17:11):
One hundred percent? You do? I do? I do?

Speaker 4 (01:17:14):
I mean you want to play for guys that are
player of coaches. He's holds me a player coach, he played,
played it on a high level. Seems to get along
with the players. Now, my own preference, personally, I would
want him stay in college. But when you think about
Dallas and the roots makes sense.

Speaker 2 (01:17:28):
There was a reporter earlier this week that the Chicago
Bears reached out to the Pittsburgh Steelers about maybe acquiring
Mike Tomlin. Yeah, Mike Tomlin coaching elsewhere in his career
other than Pittsburgh.

Speaker 3 (01:17:41):
You see that happening. Who I'm going to carry on
with that? Really? I am? I am?

Speaker 4 (01:17:49):
I think you can ride something into the wills fall
off and this isn't the case yet. The wills haven't
fallen off for Pittsburgh. Obviously they just made the playoffs,
but it's close to They have no ups in that
quarterback yet. We don't know that we can have our
own thoughts about that position. They don't have it figured
out yet, and that team isn't a talented and so

(01:18:09):
when you talk about things were in thin I could
see that happening.

Speaker 2 (01:18:13):
So let's say Mike Tomlin does stick around for a
couple of years and then Steelers decide, all right, let's
move on. Do you think he would coach somewhere else again?
So he Bill Cower when he stepped aside on so
many people thought he would go to Carolina because he
had roots there. Never did, never got back, as you said,
it was done, stayed in broadcasting. Do you think Tomlin
would be done or think he'd go elsewhere there?

Speaker 4 (01:18:34):
Tomlin's a little bit younger than Cower was at the end.
At the end off It's ten years, so I could
see him being challenged to do something else.

Speaker 2 (01:18:41):
Drama between the University of Miami and a University of
Wisconsin between an NIL agreement for a player. Wisconsin felt
they had a player for two years. Instead the player
just transferred to Miami without transferring to the portal. Should
college football players keep their NIL commitments to their schools
if they're shigning, or should they back out of a

(01:19:01):
two year agreement.

Speaker 4 (01:19:02):
I'm carrying on on that as well. If you're making
an agreement, stick it out. It's a two year deal.
It's a contract. We're trying to get these guys ready
for the next level and getting them ready to commit
to long term goals and long term things. You got
to teach them early. You need to stick to it
for sure.

Speaker 2 (01:19:19):
And finally, the TikTok band that is apparently now over.

Speaker 3 (01:19:24):
Are you on TikTok? I don't even know. I am not.
It's back up if you didn't know, I know that.
So yeah, I'm going to carry off on that one.

Speaker 4 (01:19:35):
Keep it banned, Keep TikTok out of people's lives so.

Speaker 3 (01:19:40):
They can actually communicate.

Speaker 4 (01:19:41):
I am Oh, I'm the I'm to get off my
lawn guy when it comes to TikTok and all those
social stuffs.

Speaker 2 (01:19:47):
Marry off, Mary, are you on TikTok?

Speaker 7 (01:19:51):
Of course I am.

Speaker 2 (01:19:52):
Go ahead and pup it. Where's it on TikTok? Where
can they find you? Well?

Speaker 7 (01:19:57):
I don't even know because I got hacked. Okay, I
got to make another account.

Speaker 2 (01:20:03):
And then all right, okay, the Bills are driving carry on,
great job, yes, a goat job. Carry road Bills get
a big pass to Khalil Shakir, but they trail the
Ravens seven to nothing, Buffalo inside the thirty yard line.

Speaker 3 (01:20:14):
More when we come back.

Speaker 1 (01:20:16):
Don't listening to Fox Sports Radoo.

Speaker 2 (01:20:19):
Bills in the end zone. You heard Monty say, Ray
Davis evening things up for the Bills. So maybe we'll
have a back and forth seesaw fare. It is the
game of the weekend. The Egos and Rams put on
quite a show. Can't deny what the commanders did. The
Chiefs are just the chiefs. But did they get some
help along the way, something that Kerry and I will discuss.

(01:20:42):
Welcome in as we are broadcasting live from the TIREC
dot Com studios. Tirec dot com will help you get there,
an unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road as a protection,
and over ten thousand recommended installers tirerec dot com the
way tire buying should be. What an answer from the
Buffalo Bills. Yes, driving down, using a big pass play
to Khalil Shakir to get them in Raven's territory, but

(01:21:04):
then the running game takes them into pay dirt.

Speaker 4 (01:21:06):
Huge, huge answer by the Bills there. Josh Allen did
a good job of using his legs, which, as you
see at this time of the year, all these quarterbacks
are pretty much dual threat. In these conditions, you have
to have that extra guy to come in and be
able to eke out tough, tough, shorty artist third down
fourth down runs, and Josh Allen did a good job

(01:21:26):
on that one to keep the drive going.

Speaker 3 (01:21:28):
Seven seven games. It's gonna be fun.

Speaker 2 (01:21:30):
So we both love Lamar Jackson, we both love Josh Allen.
We know the greatness of Patrick Mahomes. If I were
a tragition, I'm putting you on the spot here. You
didn't know I was going to ask this. Good Let's
just take Bill's Ravens quarterback I don't know, maybe it's different,
but I think they're close enough that they're one and
the same. If you ranked the four quarterbacks remaining in

(01:21:51):
the playoffs, how would you rank them? Let's just just combine.
If it's Lamar or if it's Josh Allen, it would
just be that would be one, and then you'd have Mahomes,
Jalen Hurts, Jaden Daniels. How would you rate rank them?
Right now?

Speaker 4 (01:22:06):
Yeah, it would be Lamar or Zaz one. It would
be Patrick Mahomes two, It'd be Jadon Daniels three and
Hurts four.

Speaker 2 (01:22:18):
Okay, not not crazy, but significant enough to have Jaden
Daniels above. I think Jalen Hurts and significant enough that
Patrick Mahomes isn't number one with his accolades, none of that,
I would argue. In fact, I think most people probably
would have Jalen Hurts in fourth. But the question that

(01:22:40):
I have when it comes to these situations is are
we going too fast with Jaden Daniels? Are we anointing
him as Lamar Jackson just throws an interception, a bad
interception on a deep ball. Maybe some miscommunication, again, this
is a team without Zay Flowers communication, But is it

(01:23:01):
Tyler rapped with the uh interception for Buffalo. Bills are
going to take over near midfield, tied seven. But that
that just seemed like maybe the receiver broke off his
route in that scenario.

Speaker 3 (01:23:13):
That's all it is.

Speaker 4 (01:23:14):
I have to see it again, but it's definitely a miscommunication.
He went through a ball that badly. It was a punt,
it was a fair catch.

Speaker 2 (01:23:20):
Do you get nervous as a safety and those things
are flying, You're like, oh my goodness, here it is.

Speaker 3 (01:23:25):
No, no, no, no nerves. I want that and let
me get I'll take that cheap one right way.

Speaker 2 (01:23:29):
And then and then this dB drops it and everybody says,
that's why you're a dB and not a wide receiver end.
But Bills will take over. But the Jayden Daniels conversation,
I just think is one that we have to we
just have to caution right now. For sure, they're on
one right now, there's no doubt about it. They've got
everything going. Cliff Kingsbury's calling all the right plays. This

(01:23:51):
thing is moving with the commanders. I felt like it
was a little similar to what the Houston Texans had
last year with c. J. Stroud and this year came around,
and I don't think it was any knocko on c J.

Speaker 3 (01:24:03):
Stroud.

Speaker 2 (01:24:04):
I actually think that he did as good as he
could considering what the Texans were dealing with. But when
you lost to Von Diggs, you lost Tank Dell for
a little while Joe Mixon was out of action, the
offensive line wasn't as good in Houston. All those things
add up, and we aren't talking about c J. Stroud
the way that we were a year ago at this time.
And I just want to caution when we talk about

(01:24:25):
Jaden Daniels to say, let's enjoy this run, but let's
be careful with the anointing, with the rankings and putting
them here and there. I even think it's unfair to
Caleb Williams in this scenario. I feel that Jaden Daniels
has been put in a situation that is ideal, and

(01:24:47):
Caleb Williams, while not perfect, was in a nightmare situation
for what the Bears have around him. So if you
are switching spots, sorry Jaden Daniels, isn't what Jaden Daniels
is doing in Washington in Chicago. And Caleb Williams may
also have led this commander's team to the playoffs, maybe
not making the great plays that Jaden Daniels has, But

(01:25:10):
I just I think we need to slow down a
little bit when we all want to rush to put
Jaden Daniels atop the quarterback rankings, and I think all
we have to do is look back a year ago
and look at what we've done with CJ. Stroud, who
had a bit of a setback in his sophomore season.

Speaker 3 (01:25:25):
Thousand percent.

Speaker 4 (01:25:26):
Yeah, I mean we're so quick to anoint people as
arriving and saying all these proclamations and this is the
best rookie quarterback we've ever seen, Like, yes, that's the
best rookie quarterback we've seen recently, you know, and we're
so recently biased, So yes, I understand that. And the
thing is c J. Strout didn't take a step back.

(01:25:48):
And you talk about like how we played throughout the year, Yeah,
it wasn't. It didn't look the same as last year.
But the circumstances, the factors he had going against them
this year, and so this is a whole different year.
He's the same really good player, right And so with
Jaydan Daniels. Right now, though, when you look at him

(01:26:08):
and you look at the quarterbacks that you just told
me to name right now, looking at him. Yeah, I
mean the order that I that I put them in
is the order I see them being as far as talented.

Speaker 2 (01:26:18):
I did just think that you're going to have a conversation,
and the conversation this week is going to criticize whatever
quarterback loses this game in Buffalo, and it's also going
to be one of fast tracking Jayden Daniels maybe past
one of these two quarterbacks or whoever it is, because
you're a prisoner of the moment. And that's it's the
only thing that I would say I feel. You know,
Washington's playing with house money. There's a bit of that.

(01:26:40):
Ian Roddy, our executive producer, showed me a tweet, Ian,
and if you can bring it up or if you
remember it, please correct me. And I'm going to try
to do this south the top of my head. Jayden
Daniels is the sixth quarterback to make it to a
conference championship game his rookie season.

Speaker 3 (01:26:56):
How many six? I know one of them?

Speaker 2 (01:26:58):
Mark Sanchez, Yes, yeah, Mark Sanchez was one of them.
And the Jets defense was ranked what that year, were
number one? They were third oh we.

Speaker 3 (01:27:07):
End up three. Yeah. Three.

Speaker 7 (01:27:09):
The next year they might have been first. Okay and
his sophomore season.

Speaker 2 (01:27:12):
But your top three's yeah, nothing nothing to front about.
Rock Perty made it his rookie year first. The forty
nine Ers defense was first. Ben Roethlisberger made it his
rookie season first. Really they were first, Sean King with
the Buccaneers third, Joe Flacco with the Ravens third, and
Jayden Daniels with the Commanders nineteen eighteen.

Speaker 3 (01:27:34):
I know it was club.

Speaker 2 (01:27:38):
I would say that Jaden Daniels has had a better
offensive year than every single one of those quarterbacks in
their rookie years.

Speaker 3 (01:27:44):
For sure. But how much does the eighteenth rank defense
play into that? Oh? A big factor. I think it's
a big factory. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:27:52):
Yeah, It's like it's he's going out and he's actually
winning games. Like those years were like a Shaun King
or brought the Brook or Axcentchez. He didn't do much
at all, Like he was just he was the stir
that's kind of stir at the drink, right, you know, yes,
And I don't know why, like when Ian said it
earlier and you just said it there. For some reason,

(01:28:12):
it feels dirty like, I feel dirty and feeling that
Jaden Daniels is allowed to do this because it's in
a way of you weren't gonna have Mark Sanchez ruin
your team. That was not gonna happen, right, No, And
while Ben Roethlisberger turned into quite the gunslinger in his
career later on, wasn't the gun slinger. The Steelers were

(01:28:34):
not gonna be letting that happen. I even though as
a Seahawks fan with Russell Wilson, even though that make
it to a conference championship game, you know, there's certain
things that you had Russell Wilson do, and you had
him in spots. I feel the statistic nature of Jaden
Daniels because they haven't had a defense so good. You
guys probably look at it in the correct way and
say they've needed Jaden Daniels, and I look at it

(01:28:56):
as saying, well, yeah, they've needed him to do it.
So it's been more wide open, like you, like, all
these other players have had governors on them, somebody to
kind of hold them back, and finally you have somebody
who's willing to let the rookie quarterback go. I'm not
sure how many other teams would do that. Do you
know what I'm saying my point of view.

Speaker 9 (01:29:16):
I know it is.

Speaker 2 (01:29:17):
Distorted and it may sound ridiculous, but that's just the
view that I look at it, that he's actually in
a situation that the team isn't telling him to hold back.

Speaker 3 (01:29:26):
And I felt CJ.

Speaker 2 (01:29:27):
Stroud was kind of in that situation last year as well,
where they were like, do your thing, CJ.

Speaker 3 (01:29:32):
So, and so I'm just curious on how it translates
into next seas.

Speaker 4 (01:29:34):
Oh yeah, no, one hundred percent, Like when Mark yeah,
because yeah, well yeah, when Mark Sanchiaz, right, we were like,
you do not turn the ball over.

Speaker 3 (01:29:41):
So you're going to throw the ball maybe sixteen.

Speaker 4 (01:29:43):
Seventeen times, We're going to ground the pound and the
defense is gonna win us games.

Speaker 3 (01:29:47):
Right, yeah, don't throw it up for grabs.

Speaker 9 (01:29:49):
Do not do it. No.

Speaker 2 (01:29:51):
So the Bills are facing a third and seventeen and
Josh Allen has overthrown Dawson Knox kind of kind of
a razy sort of play willy nilly a little bit,
and Alan just kind of threw it. He had nowhere
else to go. So the Bills get the turnover and
get good field position. But the Ravens defense holds. That's

(01:30:11):
what I think is why I like the Ravens in
this game was because I think their defense is going
to be able to get stops. Stops are different than turnovers.
Last night, I'm not sure how much Washing didn't stop Detroit,
but Detroit turned it over a lot.

Speaker 3 (01:30:23):
That's and so here.

Speaker 2 (01:30:25):
I think Balter is going to be able to get stops.
I don't know if Buffalo is going to be able to.
We'll see if they do on the next possession.

Speaker 4 (01:30:32):
Yeah, no, you're one hundred percent right. A turnover in
the stop, Yes, it's a stop, but the two are
totally different. If the team knows that they can go
out there and stop you for three plays and get
you off the field, that's a different animal.

Speaker 3 (01:30:44):
He is carry rhads.

Speaker 2 (01:30:45):
I'm Dan byer Our NFL insider Adam Kaplan will be
joining us from Philadelphia as the Eagles end up taking
out the Rams today. We'll also get some inside information
on what's going on in the coaching circles throughout the
National Football League. Jerry Jones and the Cowboys looking for
a new head coach. A lot of teams still looking

(01:31:05):
for a head coach, except the New England Patriots who
obviously hired Mike Vrabel. And I've got a question about
college football as well that needs to be answered. Plus, yeah,
there's more to come, more on the Bills and Ravens
and what does the NFL have to do with the officiating.
That's all coming up next year on Fox Sports Radio,
Fox Sports Red Zone Radio. He's the Olprocerry road Tom

(01:31:50):
Ravens it Bills now in the second quarter. Bill's unable
to cash in on that turnover, and now the Ravens
have the football as they look to get near midfield.
One of the things that happened in the turnover or
after the turnover that Buffalo picked off Lamar Jackson was
a holding call on Buffalo when they were on offense,

(01:32:11):
making it a second and long and ultimately a third
and long and fourth and long as the Bills were
unable to convert. But there was a holding call on
Buffalo that some people didn't think was necessarily holding. It's
conversation that's going to be a big one throughout the
week because of what we saw just now in Buffalo
and what we saw in Kansas City. We'll dive into
the NFL officiating in just a little bit. But joining

(01:32:33):
us now our NFL insider, who you hear on the
Inside the Birds podcast Pro Football Network. You can read
them there and hear him here as our insider, Adam
Kaplan joins us. Let's start in Philly. Adam Sure, my goodness,
what a game it was. I'm not a huge snowfan.
Game I feel you love it?

Speaker 3 (01:32:53):
You love it.

Speaker 2 (01:32:53):
I think it mutes players, but it didn't mute Jalen
Carter at the end. He sure saved the day for Philadelpha.

Speaker 3 (01:33:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:33:01):
What is it about Carter? What it is it about
that defense that got it done when they needed it
most at the end.

Speaker 9 (01:33:07):
Yeah, Dan, good to be with you guys.

Speaker 15 (01:33:08):
So really, Jalen Carter, number ninety eight would have been
the first pick overall last year had he not had
off the field concerns. I mean, the guy is a
generational talent. He's incredible, you're write down. He did save
the day a very odd game. So just to give
your listeners on here on FSR an idea of really
what was going with the weather. So the weather, it

(01:33:28):
was interesting depending on where you lived. If you lived
in South Jersey, you got rain. If you lived around
Lincoln Financial Stadium you got rain. If you lived south
of the city. For those of you who know out
east King of Prussia areas Westchester, Wilmington, Delaware, you got snow.
Well that snow didn't show up until the second quarter.
But if you watch the opening kickoff, because of the
rain that you got, Isaiah Rogers kickoff returner fumbled. He

(01:33:53):
fell on the opening kickoff. So that was a portent
of things to come. So there was some slipping in
the game. The to credit go fumbles by the Rams
Kiren Williams who said two massive fumbles against the Eagles.

Speaker 9 (01:34:03):
Matthew Stafford had one.

Speaker 15 (01:34:05):
If you go back a number of years in twenty thirteen,
the snow game, which was not on the radar, where
the snow came out of nowhere. Actually talked to one
of the former Lions coaches about that earlier this week.
Matthew Stafford had five fumbles in that game. They actually
hit seven and they lost three of them. So you know,
Kerry is a former player. Weather does matter. Yes, it
was a very odd game, guys to move this along

(01:34:26):
here because it was not snowing, and you could there
was not a lot of wind.

Speaker 9 (01:34:32):
The quarterbacks are throwing the football. I was like, wow,
could this be a high scoring game?

Speaker 15 (01:34:36):
Thirteen to ten early in the second quarter, but then
the snow took over got the footing was not good.
But then number twenty six put his cape on Saquon
Barkley to save the day.

Speaker 4 (01:34:47):
I was about to say, Saquon Barkley, I mean, obviously,
l Man, you talk about a home run hitter, and
you talk talk about guys that can change the dynamic
of a game. Outside of two carries, the Rams held
them in chech I.

Speaker 15 (01:34:58):
Know tys of question of carry as a former defensive player. Yeah,
when a guy runs on that, you like that. For
mass by the way, he's had listen to this seventy
two seventy yards, sixty eight and sixty two touchdowns, against
the Rams, Like, are.

Speaker 9 (01:35:15):
You not de moralized when you're out there? Like what
are we doing? Like because you just said it, You're
doing great, You're doing it. You're bottling him up and
then he kills you?

Speaker 1 (01:35:22):
Do you?

Speaker 9 (01:35:23):
How do you react when when a guy runs on
you like that? Like what do you? I guess you
just got to look the next play. But is that
not to moralizing to a certain extent?

Speaker 3 (01:35:29):
Of course it is.

Speaker 4 (01:35:30):
You're doing everything right for ninety the snaps and then
the guy just it's just better than you. Two snaps
and he has one hundred and twenty yards on two cars.

Speaker 9 (01:35:38):
When you put it like that, Oh my god, I
can feel it.

Speaker 3 (01:35:40):
That's not good.

Speaker 2 (01:35:41):
Yeah, Just a quick update in Buffalo, Lamar Jackson mishandled
a bad snap, then was able to gain possession, but
tried to do too much fumbled it after getting pressure.
It was picked up by Von Miller ran about sixty
yards the other way. So Buffalo now has got their
second turnover of the first half, and we'll be at
the Ravens twenty about twenty three yard line in the

(01:36:04):
seven to seven ball game. But an unforced error by
Lamar Jackson here second in one of his in these
first what seventeen minutes or so of this game. Adam
Kaplan joining us here on Fox Sports Radio, we were
talking about the officiating. Yeah, to move a little off
of the Rams and Eagles. Such a conversation yesterday I

(01:36:26):
mentioned a holding call that didn't look like it was
holding in this contest. Do these scenarios bring up the
NFL or are they brought up in the offseason to
try to do better? Is the league fine where the
officiating is right now?

Speaker 9 (01:36:39):
No?

Speaker 15 (01:36:39):
What happens is Dan is they every call is reviewed,
and officials are demoted and promoted, and they get games
by how they grate out. But what will happen is like,
for instance, the one away Anderson, I don't care what
the NFL says.

Speaker 9 (01:36:53):
That's not a foul. Yep, it's just not.

Speaker 15 (01:36:57):
And you heard Russell russ yorke uh your power is
his last name, and the guy used to work for
the NFL talk about it.

Speaker 9 (01:37:04):
So this is not a foul.

Speaker 8 (01:37:06):
So.

Speaker 15 (01:37:06):
But but what I think you came out today from
other former officials is that there was an adjustment by
the role this year. And if you lower your head
at all, even if you make you make contact with
a chess It's a penalty, not helmet.

Speaker 9 (01:37:22):
This is not right, Kerry.

Speaker 15 (01:37:24):
You know, as a former football player, you try, you're
trying to adjust the way that you played by the rules.

Speaker 9 (01:37:29):
But this is really hard. And you know Dean Blaine
and I've always been a fan of his.

Speaker 15 (01:37:36):
When I worked at ESPN, I always enjoyed talking to
him or Mike Pereira about, Okay, well how does this work?
And they would always say, listen, we cannot legislate intent.
We have to call it by the way we're told.
But I'm sorry, the plan will interest is not a penalty.
It's just not And I will defend the fishers by
the way. I I don't this nonsense about oh, the

(01:37:56):
the the the rest are ruling for the Chiefs.

Speaker 9 (01:37:59):
It's just not right. That's total nonsense. Because fans overreact
to anything that goes against the team. I get that.

Speaker 15 (01:38:06):
And I get what Damiko Ryan said. I know he's
they got to play it off everybody.

Speaker 9 (01:38:10):
I get it.

Speaker 15 (01:38:11):
I get it, but they're not cheating. Look, you also,
these are human beings who are trying to call it
like they're tall to call it by the letter of
the rule. I just don't agree with it. Now, to
move this forward, the Competition Committee has to look at this.
I understand they're trying to it's about player safety and
try to protect the players, but there's just some stuff
like what do you want a guy to do that?

Speaker 9 (01:38:33):
That's kind of what my response would be to that.

Speaker 2 (01:38:35):
Dan Josh Allen, by the way, just snuck in a
one yard touchdown run. James Cook did most of the
work to get him down to the one. Alan sneaks
it in Bills in the end zone. Extra point coming up.

Speaker 4 (01:38:44):
Adam, you said something that was that's important. There is
a human element to the officiating part of it. Yeah,
but do you feel that there is bab like I mean,
obviously they're protecting the quarterbacks this season and the last
couple of years. Really like, yeah, it's really too much
right now? Like is there a way that kind of
I guess level that often some kind of way.

Speaker 15 (01:39:06):
Well, listen, you have to understand if he's defensils or not.
There's by the rules, there's sometimes the fans don't understand
he's a defensive player.

Speaker 9 (01:39:14):
There's you have to know understand. We don't have time
to go into.

Speaker 15 (01:39:17):
The rules here, but I could just tell you there's
certain rules that protect quarterbacks when there let's say, interception return,
you get you get protected depending on where you're at
on the field. And that's that's just the way that
the fans cannot agree with it, but that's that's the
right call. But I definitely don't think they're favoritesm I
just don't. I know the way things are done. I
know fans can't understand it, and it's where there is

(01:39:37):
and I've seen former players go after the officials.

Speaker 9 (01:39:39):
I get it.

Speaker 15 (01:39:41):
That's fine, but there isn't. You can't prove it. You
feel that there is because it looks egregious. Your your
problem is not with the officials. It's the way that
it's officiated. It's the way that the competition committee once
thing's called. You know, it's funny there's so many former
current head coaches and former executives on the competition committee.
They need to clean it up and that that's that's
the bottom line.

Speaker 2 (01:40:01):
Adam Kaplin joining us here at Fox Sports Radio. Find
him on Exit Kaplan NFL. He's Carrie Rhodes. I'm Dan Byer.
Carrie and I just had a discussion about Jayden Daniels
and I'm not trying.

Speaker 9 (01:40:11):
Oh, the unbelievable man, that kid.

Speaker 3 (01:40:15):
Go ahead, Dan, I was, I was, I was just
I was cautioning on and maybe this is the better question.

Speaker 2 (01:40:23):
I said. We loved c J. Stroud last year. Yeah,
it was a tougher year for him offensive line and
all this. I just feel that we need to be
careful with Jade and Daniels.

Speaker 3 (01:40:34):
That's fair. But what what is the difference?

Speaker 1 (01:40:37):
Why?

Speaker 3 (01:40:37):
Why is he different than maybe others and why you
you know, well, let me let me.

Speaker 9 (01:40:43):
Take the former. Yeah, let me take the form of CJ.

Speaker 3 (01:40:45):
Shrod.

Speaker 15 (01:40:46):
You got to understand a couple of things. And I'm
not excusing CJ. Stroud for some of the poor play
oft times. But the Texas offensive line, folks, is bottom
ten talent wise.

Speaker 9 (01:40:59):
It's much better just not playing towards it. Okay, they're
just not playing well.

Speaker 15 (01:41:05):
You lose Tank Dell in a horrific injury in Week
fifteen of Kansas City, you lost Digs before that, and
they're putting out guy who shouldn't be playing at receiver.

Speaker 9 (01:41:12):
That's part of it.

Speaker 15 (01:41:14):
But now, yeah, Stroud, I was told that and this
is a more of a scouting term. He was dropping
his eyes at times, which means he's worried about getting hit. Yep,
that's a scouting term, which is it's all by coaching tape.
It's not personal thing. It's just what people have graded
his tape tell me. So that that's a concern. Now
let's go to Jade and Daniels.

Speaker 2 (01:41:32):
Okay, so it just before you go on, Dan, I
appreciate all of that. Like that was my point where like, yeah,
it was like, it's not CJ. Stroud's fault, right, but
we were it is, but you don't want him dropping
his eyes. But that's on your point.

Speaker 3 (01:41:46):
But the line's son, it's weird about it.

Speaker 2 (01:41:48):
Yeah, yeah, Like and that's the thing, like everything is
great with Jayden and Daniels now, but maybe he runs
into the same thing next year with the commanders.

Speaker 3 (01:41:53):
That was my point about it.

Speaker 9 (01:41:54):
But all right, let me let's talk about that before
we get out of here.

Speaker 15 (01:41:56):
So I have to tell you that if you looked
at and Sam Cosmey toward ACLS, and he's by far
the best lineman, I don't know how they've held up
with If you look at this talent level, Andrew Wiley
should not be starting the right tackle but they have
who they have.

Speaker 9 (01:42:11):
He's a serviceable veteran.

Speaker 15 (01:42:12):
Okay, left tackle, Brandon Coleman, there's a thought around the
league he should be a guard to right tackle, not
a left tackle. Okay, he's playing left tackle. Bi Oddish
is at a decent seas above average center. Okay, this
Cosby just towards ACL. Trent Trent Scott will fill in
for him. Is a journeyman tackle who you really don't
want starting at guard, but he's got to start.

Speaker 9 (01:42:32):
They don't have anybody else.

Speaker 15 (01:42:34):
The fact that they've made it this far with this
offensive then obviously Bobby Johnson, their offensive line coach, is
really good. I don't know how they're doing this, but
they're doing it. They don't run the ball all that well.
Other than Daniel's dynamic running the ball. The design run
plays for him are fantastic. It's the execution is great.
But to me, and you mentioned Jalen Carter earlier, Jayden

(01:42:55):
Jalen Carter should have feast on this in this game.
Vic Fangio and Clin Hurt defensive line coaches phenomenal, came
over from Seattle. I'm sure they're going to figure out
away from when they do the tape tonight. In fact
that I don't know if you know. Carry probably knows this,
but teams don't wait till the tapes available that in
the morning.

Speaker 9 (01:43:12):
The next morning, they each team.

Speaker 15 (01:43:15):
Films it on their own and they'll be able to
watch tonight what Washington's tape look like, because they're gonna
Washington should be in trouble on their offensive line. But
Jane Daniels ripped the Eagles defense the last game. He
had five touchdown passes, so the Eagles haven't forgotten about that.

Speaker 9 (01:43:28):
I'm sure.

Speaker 2 (01:43:31):
Lamar Jackson just scrambled. And now there's a bit of
a freakiss going on between the Ravens and Bills, and
there was it looked like Jackson was tackled out of
bounds late, but there's no penalty on the play. Buffalo
still leads the Ravens fourteen to seven. Do you have
anything more for Adam Kaplan, Cary Rhodes, Adam know it's
about I can do this.

Speaker 15 (01:43:50):
An hour like two segments that I can't do it today.
I can't totally get it.

Speaker 2 (01:43:58):
We will, but last week we were told that we
went along with you the week before and care what
happened was I.

Speaker 9 (01:44:03):
Was in the middle.

Speaker 15 (01:44:04):
I had to watch the game and we were just
to be out at a certain time, and one of
the times we weren't. But I know because we we've
already done a postgame show. I would love to do
two segments with you guys one time. But will you
guys be at the super Bowl by any chance?

Speaker 3 (01:44:16):
Yes, yes, I'm not there until midweek.

Speaker 15 (01:44:18):
But okay, well if you're hosting, maybe with maybe with Gottley.
But we got to do two segments one of these days, guys,
we want more time. We will absolutely Adam, we appreciate it.
Talk to you letter, you got it? Thanks all right.

Speaker 3 (01:44:31):
That actually bothered me.

Speaker 2 (01:44:33):
I came to us our executive producer, and said, Kaplan
says that we only need to do We kept him
long last time. I thought he wanted to same and
we both liked I thought we thought loved us. Yeah,
he was like, don't kill the messenger. Ian Roddy a
great executive producer. We love having Adam on, but obviously
a busy day and we're keeping in our eyes on
this Ravens Bills game. An update that Monzi will give

(01:44:55):
us no foul on that play. The Ravens seemed to
be on the move, Moncy, I don't I.

Speaker 8 (01:45:01):
Don't know how to change that because it's like Patrick
Mahomes plays with the rules. He plays with the very
irritated and unlike unlike uh, you know, Lamar Jackson and
Josh Allen who actually run right, Like it's a little different,
but like Patrick Mahomes plays with the rules and it's
very frustrating, and so I don't know how to fix
it because.

Speaker 3 (01:45:21):
Talking about the slow up.

Speaker 7 (01:45:24):
He pretends that he's going to do something because he
knows that they're not going to hit him. And then
if he feels that they're not gonna hit him, he
stays in bound. What are you supposed to do hit him?

Speaker 8 (01:45:32):
Which so it's hard because he did get hit late Lamar,
but it's like, what do you do if you are
a defender, especially against the Lamar against the Josh you
know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:45:40):
But that's what makes it so egregious, right you just
see him do that and get tackled out of the
and he gets plucked out of bounds and it's a fifteen.

Speaker 8 (01:45:48):
Year old and then nobody, I'm like, do that to Mahomes, y'all,
even like at this point, even if you get a flag,
just hit Mahomes because it hardly ever does he get
a call, and it boggles my mind.

Speaker 7 (01:45:57):
And it's frustrating because he plays with the rules. That's
what I don't like about it.

Speaker 8 (01:46:02):
Okay, the Bills are on top of the Ravens fourteen
to seven, seven minutes to go in the first half,
but the Ravens currently have the ball they are driving
to score. So far, Lamar Jackson five of eight eighty
one yards, a touchdown, an interception. He also lost to fumble.
Josh Allen three of five to fifty eight yards. He
does have a rushing touchdown in this so far plenty
of games, so it's everything I think we've been wanting.

Speaker 7 (01:46:24):
A close game so far.

Speaker 8 (01:46:25):
In the NFC Divisional Round, the Eagles defeated the Rams
twenty eight to twenty two, so the Eagles will be
hosting the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship Game. Saquon
Barkley once again put on another show against the Rams.
He did already in the regular season, does it in
the postseason. Twenty six carries, two hundred and five yards
and two touchdowns. The first one was a sixty two

(01:46:46):
yard run the second one a seventy eight yard run.
Philadelphia started their opening drive with the touchdown, and it
was a forty four yard.

Speaker 7 (01:46:53):
Run from Jalen Hurtz, who we think is hurt his knee.
We're not sure, but there hasn't been anything else. It
seemed like he heard his so we'll see what happens.

Speaker 8 (01:47:01):
In the NBA, the Nuggets are on top of the
Magic sixty seven to sixty three halfway through the third quarter,
and the Bucks are beating the seventy six ers at
home twenty four to sixteen.

Speaker 7 (01:47:10):
Late in the first just like the thunder who are
all over the nets.

Speaker 8 (01:47:14):
Thirty six to twelve is the score, while the Heat
already defeated the Spurs one twenty eight to one oh seven.
And men's college basketball, the final game of the day,
TCU took down number twenty five Baylor seventy four to
seventy one. One game going on in the NHL, the
Rangers and the Canadians are tied at one.

Speaker 7 (01:47:31):
Apiece late in the first period. Back to you, guys, and.

Speaker 2 (01:47:34):
As Bonti was talking, Lamar Jackson has just hit Rashad
Bateman for a huge play that will get the Ravens
down to about the two yard line. So with z
A Flowers out, Rashad Bateman's the one who's picking up
the slack and had the touchdown earlier, and now a
forty two yard reception, so a first in goal scenario
for the Ravens and Derek Henry.

Speaker 3 (01:47:53):
You got to see a lot of Derek Henry here
and you're going to and he gets stuffed stuff. So
no gain, that's all right.

Speaker 2 (01:47:58):
Second down, and I don't know if I know Manzi
didn't include it. And now there's some more extra curricular
activities going on between the Bills and the Ravens. Terry
and Arnold's Game of Madden.

Speaker 3 (01:48:12):
Have you seen this?

Speaker 2 (01:48:13):
The Lions rookie corner TikTok? By the way, where's where
he put this game up? The Lions are beating the
Commanders one hundred and three to zero with ten seconds
left in the first quarter in Terry and Arnold's Game
of Madden. So he's taking out his frustrations of losing
yesterday hoping via via Madden, which is very funny. I

(01:48:34):
don't know it's funnier the one of three or that
he played fifteen minute quarters and racked up one hundred
and three points. In that first quarter, Lamar Jackson sacked
on a second down and goal at about the eight
yard line, so it's third down and goal.

Speaker 3 (01:48:48):
This is this is key for this scenario.

Speaker 2 (01:48:50):
Then I want to get your thoughts on officiating a
little bit more from what you and Monty were talking about.
The Ravens got the opening kickoff to the game, so
the Bills get the balls open the second half. If
you're Buffalo, you can hold them to a field goal here,
maybe get some points at the end of the half,
and then get the football back.

Speaker 9 (01:49:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:49:09):
Yeah, you don't have to do anything special, and you can.
You could could have a two score lead at some
point in the third quarter, which is again sometimes you're
looking for breaks. They got two of them on the turnovers.
They were able to catch one of them in for points.
But now, if you're Buffalo, if you could just get
a hold, if you could just get a stop and
figure out a way to stop the Ravens. And incomplete

(01:49:31):
pass to Derrick Henry that I was bouncing around almost
looked like it could be picked off. There's three forty six.
Now Baltimore likely to settle for the field goal, Yes,
you're Buffalo, going a three minute drive and scoring, then
get the ball to start the second half, can get
some separation.

Speaker 4 (01:49:45):
Yeah, the two for one is a big deal. I mean,
that's why a lot of these teams nowadays are deferring
to get that ball in the second half to get
that extra score. Somebody that was really notorious for that
was the New England Patriots with Tom Brady. You can
be in the game. It could be thirteen to ten,
we'd be pretty clothes. You fee, you feel pretty good.
They'll get that last drive before the happen, get the
ball back and next thing you know, you're down ten.

Speaker 2 (01:50:05):
Yeah, and it's a it's a dagger working with the
clock and doing that. So Tucker's field goal those good.
So it's fourteen to ten, Bills on top of the
Ravens three forty three left to go in the second quarter.
So you and Monty were talking about the officiating. I've
mentioned it, in fact it did this week. Ian Roddy's
the executive producer of the I Want Your Flex podcast
that I do with Mike Harmon, and I was just

(01:50:26):
talking about how in golf, the rules of golf aren't
always there to penalize you. In fact, sometimes they're there
to help you. I feel to Monty's point is that
Patrick Mahomes maybe is taking advantage of that, Like there's
certain rules that you can have that that you could
play with and hey, this is the rule, so I'm
going to do it. But it sure seems that Mahomes
is bending those rules.

Speaker 4 (01:50:46):
And I agree with Manzi one hundred percent when I
was watching the game yesterday watching him kind of maneuver
the sideline and then come back and you know, slide
at the last Manute, Like these things are bending the rules.
And so obviously there is a parameter. There's rules, and
that's you know, for the game, like in theory, right
to make the best version of the game. When people

(01:51:08):
are starting to notice that and actually try to take
advantage of that and start to it's almost like the
n began flopping right. You start to get to the
point where like, Okay, we get it. We know you
know the rules, we know you're trying to bend the rules.
This doesn't make it right, doesn't make it fun, like
go out and compete and win. And so I'm one
of those old heads. I feel that way, and when
I watch Patrick Mahomes do it when you're supposed to

(01:51:28):
be as good as he is. To try to cheat
the rules and try to maneuver the rules, it really
ticks me off.

Speaker 2 (01:51:33):
That's the problem with it, and that's why it looks
like the chiefs are getting preferential treatment from the officials, because,
let's be honest, in any sport, superstars are treated differently.

Speaker 9 (01:51:44):
They are.

Speaker 2 (01:51:44):
The NBA has built its foundation on it. Yes, realistically,
you know it has. In Major League Baseball, hitters get
a smaller strike zone, star pitchers may get a bigger
strike zone. They get those those benefits. This has happen
everywhere in the world of sports, but when it happens
with Patrick Mahomes, and Mahomes almost feels or seems complicit

(01:52:09):
in it, it makes it gets people frustrated. And safety
of the it's the other thing too. The other portion
of it is it's the safety of the game penalties.
We're like a hit to a quarterback. If you hit
the quarterback high, it doesn't mean that the quarterback was
able to run for twenty more yards because you didn't.

(01:52:32):
Whereas a holding penalty affected the play, it allowed that
defender to not be able to tackle the running back.
This is a player safety penalty, which are I think
so subjective at times, and so while it doesn't even
affect the play, like, I don't think we're mad if
we see an egregious hole on a sixty yard run,
you're like, well, he would have been tackled if that

(01:52:53):
hole didn't take place. Yes, when Mahomes is turtling on
a sack and the defender doesn't know where to go,
that's the part of the thing that gets us frustrating
because it's a player safety even more so than targeting
like we would see like in the secondary of a play.

Speaker 3 (01:53:09):
Like those are the things that the thin get fans frustrated.

Speaker 4 (01:53:11):
And I think the way to solve that in theory, right,
if he's in the pocket, which this is part of
the rule, but this is where it gets lost. If
he's in the pocket and you hit him, agreeiously, they're
gonna call that regardless because all eyes are on the
quarterback right once they start running. They have to be
considered runners. You can't not try to because these quarterbacks

(01:53:33):
are so savvy. They're sliding at the last second knowing
that you have no control over what's about to happen
right now, and that part really irks me as as
a defender, somebody actually played.

Speaker 3 (01:53:43):
If I tried to play in this error right now,
I couldn't. I wouldn't want to. As a defender, you
have no you have no rights, and so it sucks
for me.

Speaker 2 (01:53:52):
Yeah, and if you hit him near the out of
bounds line and he's not out of bounds, you can't
review that play. So it's a fifteen yard n'd in
terms of you know, in a situation like that, and
think about that. I believe that's the case. I don't,
but I believe that's andy. Think about so you say,
like you want to take care of the quarterbacks. Jared
Goff throws in this eption. He's gets decked right in

(01:54:15):
the head, above the shoulders, in the neck, in the helmet. Yeah,
there's no call, So, like that's the problem. It's not
consistent either.

Speaker 3 (01:54:22):
He's carry roads. I'm dan byer.

Speaker 2 (01:54:24):
Bill's holding on to that fourteen to ten lead on
the Ravens still in the first half. Josh Allen and
crew of the ball. Three minutes to go. They have
all three of their timeouts up for facing a second
and three right now at their own thirty seven yard line.
We'll tell you how they fare in the two minute warning.
Plus are MVPs for the divisional round of the playoffs.

He's Carry Roads. I'm Dan Byer. That's next on Fox
Sports Radio, Fox Sports Red Zone Radio. He's Carry Rhodes.
I'm Dan Bayer. Final Divisional playoff game going on right
now in Buffalo. The Bills lead the Ravens fourteen to ten.
There's a minute eighteen to go and Buffalo has the ball,
second down and six at the Ravens thirty one yard line.

(01:55:06):
And as we mentioned, the Bills will get the ball
at the start of the second half, so really important
for the Ravens to get a stop here. But Buffalo
does have an opportunity to add to their lead, and
in a best case scenario for them, they score on
these two possessions and all of a sudden, it's a
twenty eight to ten lead, and Derek Henry wouldn't be
as much of an option for the Ravens in the

(01:55:28):
second half. A crucial seventy eight seconds coming up here
in this divisional playoff game. Here's Carry Rhoades the All

the Bills run a play with James Cook and really
don't get anything, So the Raven's likely going to use
their final timeout. Baltimore, in best case scenario, could get
the football back with about fifteen seconds left to go,
depending on how Buffalo ends up handling that. With the

(01:56:25):
time being, let's hear our MVPs for the divisional playoff
round in the NFL.

Text second ninety four WYP Eagles Radio Network, the most
valuable player, everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:58:27):
This is Fox Football Sunday.

Speaker 2 (01:58:30):
And on a third down, the Buffalo Bills get a
penalty called against the Baltimore Ravens on a pass interference,
setting them up at the twelve yard line. Fifty four
seconds in counting Kerry Roads, the Bills have all three
of their timeouts. They just ran the ball now forty
seven seconds. They got down to the Bill's eight yard
line on the James Cook run, but a tough pass.

(01:58:51):
The interference call that looked like offensive pass interference.

Speaker 3 (01:58:53):
Terrible pass in apference call.

Speaker 4 (01:58:55):
The offensive guy had his hand in the in the
dbs N Coleman, Yes, and uh it, you know it
doesn't matter things happen like that in the game though.
I mean, we just talked about it is egregious officiating, right,
and so oh, Josh Allen's running. I'm sorry, that's okay, Yeah, no,
it's it's it's.

Speaker 3 (01:59:12):
That was a tough play.

Speaker 2 (01:59:13):
Yeah, so it's Alan takes the second on carry third down.
The Bills may want to use a time out here
because they have three of them and it's a third
and two. The fact of the matter is you want
to score a touchdown here. You're not just settling for
points now. They've got two timeouts left. Nineteen seconds did
leave a lot of time on the clock. I'll tell
you what if it doesn't happen in our time because

(01:59:35):
it's winding down. Mark Willard, Evehram Salaam, Steve de Saga
will keep you updated on obviously what is happening in
this Bills game. But a big third and two coming
up for Buffalo as they are knocking on the door
trying to add points. It'll be third and two from
the Buffalo four. If you don't get the third down,
I think you have to kick the field goal, even
if it's if it's close. But Sean McDermott will have

(01:59:56):
a decision. And now we're looking at another helmet to
helme collision with Marlon Humphrey and with Josh Allen. Bill's
facing a big third down. It's been fun today with
Carrie Roads. I'm Dan Byer We'll talk to you next
week on Championship Sunday right here on Red Zone Radio
