Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio Final.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Hour in this Monday gangs all here ready to go.
You're best and worst of the weekend. Phone calls are welcome.
Eight seven to seven to three DP. Show stat of
the Day is always brought to you by Panini America.
The official trading cards of The Dan Patrick Show have
a new poll question eight seven seven to three DP.
Show Operator Tyler is sitting by to take your calls.
(00:26):
The Niners favored by five and a half at the
Colts tonight. I don't gamble anymore, but the Colts at
home with five and a half. Would I take the
five and a half with the Colts? Yeah, I used
to always do home dog Monday night.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Always always.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Colts with old man rivers. Okay, you know the defense
is what stood out in that loss against Seattle and forty.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Nine ers don't have a lot of firepower.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
It's basically, you know, basically Christian McCaffrey, who is quietly
having an unbelievable year, but he doesn't like there aren't
highlights when I watch.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
He just doesn't have it feels.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Like that that exter move, that extra burst, that extra gear.
But they go to him, he's going to have over
four hundred touches this year for a guy coming off
injuries and coming back and being the integral part of
that offense. Because quarterbacks have changed, wide receivers have changed,
(01:32):
you lost your two best defensive players. And oh, by
the way, you're in the thickest things and not just
your division but overall. In the NFC all Right poll
question for the final hour of the program, Nate Burlson
on loan from CBS Sports in a little bit Seaton, Yeah, we.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Got a couple of real negativity Monday Polk questions as
you only come to expect.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
And Paulie is promising an even more negative whole question
coming up as well.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
That's fun.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
Yeah, Paul's first negative pole question, who do you believe
in least Alabama or Miami right now? Miami's got sixty
three percent of that vote. And then which NFC playoff
team do you believe in least? Seahawks Bears, forty nine Ers, Eagles.
The Bears have forty two percent of that vote. Second
place is the Eagles.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Okay, Eagles can win the Super Bowl again.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Yes, I mean it's it's kind of weird when you
watch them play, and yes, they've brought in criticism because
it just feels like there's some kind of disconnect with
that coach is quarterback defense isn't as stout as it
has been.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
But you do have skilled position players on offense.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
I don't think anybody compares to them, those two receivers,
that tight end, that running back. And you know, Jalen
Hurts is not a great quarterback. I think he can
play great, but that doesn't mean came a great quarterback. Yeah, Pauling,
here's the new pole question.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
Which fan base of a recently competitive team that was
in the playoff picture just a week or two ago
should feel the worst today? Baltimore Ravens fans uh, Detroit
Lions fans yes? Or Tampa Bay Buccaneers fans lines.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah, the Lions were going to the Super Bowl a
couple of years ago. They're leading at halftime. They were
going to the Super Bowl and probably would have won
the Super Bowl. They may not make the playoffs now,
and it wasn't just yes. I mean, you know now
they're healthy ish. Last year they weren't. You didn't have
(03:43):
Aiden Hutchinson. But I mean Tampa was just they're in
a bad Division. I thought, Okay, all you got to
do is win nine games. You're in the playoffs, and
then you're going to host a playoff game. Maybe you
could catch magic in a bottle, Lightning in bottles, what
they like to say. Jamiir Gibbs caught a touchdown pass
in the loss to the Steelers. He has forty eight
(04:04):
career touchdowns. He passes Barry Sanders for most touchdowns by
a player under the age of twenty four all time.
He has the most touchdowns by a player in his
first three seasons in NFL history.
Speaker 6 (04:22):
Stand of the Day, stant of to day, Statuta day,
stant out to day. This is the Style of the Day,
brought to you.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
By panadi America, the official trading cards for the Dan
Patrick Show. I'll go back to the draft and leading
into the draft, my source said he is a Marshall
Falk kind of running back. And you know, was he
going to be drafted in the first fifteen? Ah, you
don't take you know, running backs up there. But my sources,
(04:54):
an NFL scout, gave us those words that I said
on this show. Jamiir Gibbs, in his opinion, was a
Marshall Fulk kind of player. One of the greatest hybrid
running backs of all time.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
Yeah, Paul, I've got the Detroit Lions draft grades from
that draft. Where they took was that twenty twenty three.
They took Jack Campbell the linebacker and Jamiir Gibbs. I
think they traded up to get them at twelve. Yep,
they got d's D minuses, C minuses way too early.
For Jamir Gibbs. You traded up for a running back
who you could have got five picks later. You don't
(05:27):
take a running you don't take a middle linebacker in
the first round. True, they got ripped up in the draft.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Yeah, but you're getting further and further away from the
super Bowl when you think about it. I mean, I
had him winning the Super Bowl this year. About everybody's healthy,
now's your time, now's your turn. Yeah, Marv.
Speaker 7 (05:49):
As a Lions fan, would you be more upset about
always being terrible or having great expectations and not living
up to them?
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Okay, your pain.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Occurs at different stages, So it's either it could be
January or it could be October where you're not any
good and you're not going anywhere and the pain of
another loss season, or we have a chance to go
to the Super Bowl. I mean, I'll take that crushing
defeat against the Niners.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
I mean it's gonna.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Hurt, but it hurts in a positive way. We got
to that point instead of where the Lions would be like,
how how many losses are they going to have this year?
You gotta have double digit losses that I mean, there
was no heart beat there. Now you have it, which
means you're gonna have a heart attack, and that's what happened.
But you're getting further and further away. And the Bears
(06:47):
are a good team. Packers are a good team, not
as much now with the injuries, but and maybe the
Vikings figured out next year. So if you're a Lions fan,
you're like, we got some pieces here, but you're getting
further and further away from the goal. Yeah, Pauline.
Speaker 5 (07:07):
The Lions are the second best scoring offense in the NFC,
only to the Rams. They've outscored their opponents by seventy
eight points. That's third best in the NFC, and they're
eight and seven.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Here's Dan Campbell on the wild ending to the game yesterday.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
I mean, I don't even want to get into it,
you know, because it's not going to change anything. We
still lost, you know, you know, I mean, look, you
think you score, you don't score, and then you know,
you think you're gonna have another play, replay it or
back it up one more shot, and it doesn't. And
that's just I guess that's the way it's written in
the rule book. So that's frustrating. But there again, it
(07:43):
should never come to that. We had our opportunities, we
weren't able to put it in before that plate.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
They did have opportunities. You know what would help stopping
the run. Who knew the Steelers gonna run for two
hundred yards and you're gonna get fifteen yards. That's the
first drive with Jamir Gibs. Normally, yes, Todd, that was.
Speaker 9 (08:07):
Even more glaring. Stopping the runners one thing.
Speaker 10 (08:08):
But you got these great running backs and you end
up with this fifteen yards from the entire game. That's
just unacceptable when there's a playoff spot in the line.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Anyway, Wait, now you're upset, No.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
I was upset.
Speaker 10 (08:18):
I'm only upset about the Broncos, but in that particular game,
to go a whole game and only have fifteen yards rushing.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
By the way, by the way, do you have a
pie coming?
Speaker 2 (08:27):
I do all right at the end of the end
of the show, because we had Marcus in Jacksonville who
not only said Jacksonville would win the game, they would
win by fourteen, who we assume doesn't.
Speaker 9 (08:37):
Have any special intel with Vegas and the odds.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
It doesn't matter. He had him winning by fourteen. He
gave you thirteen points. With the Broncos at home.
Speaker 10 (08:48):
It got to a point where I knew the Broncos
are going to losing that it was all about rooting
for them to not lose by fourteen.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
How was morale at home yesterday?
Speaker 9 (08:56):
Absolutely horrible?
Speaker 10 (08:57):
And then one of their players gets hurt and gets
taken out on us stretcher with thirty seconds.
Speaker 9 (09:01):
Left, and it looked like really bad.
Speaker 10 (09:02):
Thankfully, latest reports are he's doing okay and he's out
of the hospital. But on top of that and bow
Nicks felt horrible and there's a throw across the middle and.
Speaker 9 (09:10):
He just got crushed.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
You from the breakdown of that game, maybe the name
of the player, yeah, Tony Romo, just give me a number.
Speaker 9 (09:20):
But that happened with thirty seconds left in a fourteen
point game.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
So when that team they threw it to the guy
and then he did the thing. Remember that when that happened,
he got hurt in the body.
Speaker 6 (09:28):
Crazy.
Speaker 5 (09:29):
Yeah, but if you're a Broncos fan, despite yesterday's loss,
you have to feel great right now.
Speaker 6 (09:36):
You could wash that.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
I don't know if you feel great today.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
Entering the playoffs with that defense.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Okay, but I don't feel great today. What did they want?
Speaker 9 (09:44):
Like nine in a row.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
I may feel greater, you know.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
As I you know, remove myself from this loss at
home to Jacksonville.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
I think it's an easy shakeoff. Yeah, well, Todd doesn't
like Taylor Swift to shake it off.
Speaker 9 (09:58):
They're lucky they still have the.
Speaker 10 (10:00):
One seed because I guess they have the tie breaker
with the Pages. But they had an opportunity to jump
a game.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Waits is it they?
Speaker 9 (10:05):
Or we had an opportunity to jump a game on
New en You gotta make up?
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Come on, Okay, it's all.
Speaker 9 (10:09):
We We had him opportunity to jump a game on
New England.
Speaker 10 (10:12):
We had to just to really prove ourselves to the
doubters against a very tough team to keep the winning
streak going. And now we don't even have the AFC
West yet. The Chargers are still looming and we got
to play them in the final week of the season.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Yes, divisions up in the air.
Speaker 7 (10:23):
Okay, Yes, who's distancing themselves more from their team or
Travis Kelcey. It's like, hopefully Mahomes can get back to
the Chiefs, not us. Same thing with him. The Broncos
play terrible.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Uh did Travis Kelcey play yesterday? Do we even know
his numbers? I I didn't watch the game. I saw
some highlights, but I mean I was just curious. And
then now is the backup quarterback got a torn a ceo?
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Yeah, Gardner Minshew ripped up his knee after eight pass
attempts and it's Chris all it could do or something
like that. I think he's from South South Dakota State.
Speaker 9 (11:02):
Maybe.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Okay, did Kelsey play?
Speaker 9 (11:05):
He did?
Speaker 5 (11:05):
He had one catch for six yards.
Speaker 6 (11:07):
He averaged six yards to catch, thank you. They always
do that.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
They always put those fantasy numbers like Jamior Gibbs one carry,
four yards, four yards per carry.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
It's the first quarter and it's always his big tight end. Yes,
the announcer always says, is big tight end. I you know,
another completion to his big tight end. Nobody says his
undersized tight end. Yeah, his diminutive tight end there. And
it's a young rookie. I mean, unless you're Chris Wank
(11:39):
or Brandon Whedon, most of your rookies are young rookies,
aging rookie. Yes, yes, Marvin the young rookie, that's showing
a lot of promise. Oh yeah, gotta show a lot
of promise. Ashton Gent the young rookie showing a lot
of promise in another loss.
Speaker 10 (11:53):
Yes, are there are five nine hundred and eighty pounds
tight ends out there that people are looking to sign.
Speaker 9 (11:57):
I haven't seen one reason.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
I don't I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
I don't think so they're all you gotta find his
big tight end there. We always like to add another word. Yeah,
it's you can describe it with that word, but you
want to attach another word that is basically the same thing.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Yes, And if you're really old.
Speaker 10 (12:18):
Or really young, you got to put that at forty
four year old Philip Rivers, he's not just Philip Rivers,
he's forty four year old.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Is there are certain players where you do introduce them
by their age. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Tom Brady was always the forty five year old Tom Brady.
Now it's the forty four year old Philip Rivers or
you know it could be a baseball player.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
He's a little bit older, yes, Marv.
Speaker 7 (12:38):
On the young side, seventeen year old Ryan Williams from Alabama.
They were saying he was seventeen for about two years.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
He used to be a thing.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Feels like he made a business decision this year, Like
I can't go pro, so I'm just gonna kind of
be out there because they had another receiver who was,
as the kids like to say, ballin in that game.
Speaker 5 (13:00):
Yes, PAULI smallest tight end in the NFL. I just
found it not easy to find Connor Hayward of the Steelers.
He's a fullback tight end, but listed at tight end
six foot two thirty.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Yes, but then look at the other tight end Washington
Mount Washington, Like you see that guy, and i'd be
you want to talk about a safety valve could be
if I'm Aaron Rodgers, I want to know where he
is all the time because he's like six' eight three three.
Speaker 5 (13:28):
Something Paulie Darnell washington uh out Of georgia three eleven
and he's six Seven, yeah so can't he can't be
the big tight end gigantic tight.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
End, hey he might be his big tight. End there
might be his big tight end.
Speaker 11 (13:44):
There.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
SEE i feel like The patriots at one time had
a semi undersized tight end at about six, two like
two fifty.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Baby, Uh but they also Had gronk who was a
much big tight.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
END i feel like six to two he WASN'T i
feel like that person was considered, undersized weren't?
Speaker 3 (14:08):
They, yeah do you have a name And? Hernandez he
was six to two he was, Yeah OH i thought
he was like six.', five.
Speaker 11 (14:17):
No he was.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
SIX two i remember he was basically a. Wide receiver,
oh yeah? Uh not, you, know, Yes.
Speaker 7 (14:23):
Yes ma the word they Would describe hernandez was. A hybrid, they're,
like man he's. A. Hybrid sorry look.

saints are going to make. The playoffs it's probably five to,
six teams which is, you know that's what. You, want

figure out who we're going to put in Our all.
Speaker 6 (22:15):
Christmas team, you Know, Who's Santa? Who's rudolph down, the line.
Speaker 15 (22:19):
We got a ton of stuff to fill time if
the game doesn't give us the entertainment. We NEED but
i have a Feeling That cowboys commanders is going to
be plenty of the entertainment we.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Will, Need Yeah So cowboys commanders At one Eastern With
iron Eagle And. Matt ryan then It's the lions In.
The vikings pre game begins at Eleven am Eastern.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
On netflix those two matches sounded really good a few.
Speaker 14 (22:44):
Months ago.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
I'm still trying to figure out how the official says
touchdown and, then, says, however okay so help me understand
that In The lions steelers game and where it's not
a touchdown because there was, A penalty so why would
you start with your ruling calling it a touchdown and
(23:09):
then saying but there was, past interference, no touchdown game
over drive.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Home.
Speaker 15 (23:13):
Safely, YEAH see, i, Listen man let's keep. It real
THAT'S what i LIKE to i like to keep it real.
WITH you i was drafted By the vikings PLAYING In,
nfc north Went to seattle for, four, years right AND
then i had an opportunity to sign, another DEAL so
i Went to DETROIT and i REMEMBER when i, got
there guys.
Speaker 6 (23:33):
Were scoring they, were, like look, the league the league doesn't,
like Us.
Speaker 15 (23:37):
And nate playing here, is rough not just because we're
trying to, exercise demons but when a game is on,
the line it tends to go the, other way.
Speaker 6 (23:47):
You Know and, I'm like, I'm like, i'm, like, no, no.
Speaker 15 (23:50):
No no i've been in the league for seven, years
NOW and i. Get it there's some, close calls but football, is,
Football right and, they're, like, no, no.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
NO nay i don't think you.
Speaker 15 (23:57):
Understand it when it comes To, the lions there are
certain games that just don't go, our way even though
everybody knows.
Speaker 11 (24:03):
They.
Speaker 6 (24:03):
SHOULD now i remember, questioning that, doubting that and then
one year we open Up. In chicago it's a. Close game.
Speaker 15 (24:11):
You know those division games are really like two and
It's the lions Versus. The bears We're. In chicago, last
Minute hell mary threw Up To. Calvin johnson he. Catches
it he has it in, one hand prominent with his big.
Old mits he slides on. The hip he even has
like an elbow down and then he goes to get
up on both hands and one still has the ball,
(24:32):
in it and he just pushes himself up off the
ground even lest the. Ball go Even The, chicago bears
we're dapping, us up saying a, good game.
Speaker 6 (24:40):
Good, game, yeah yeah y'all want.
Speaker 15 (24:41):
That one we'll see y'all a little, later on, you Know,
In detroit and as the rest are sitting there meeting with,
each other we're sitting back, and thinking what the hell
are you? Meeting about? Game over that's A catch we're
want to know. Right now, sure enough they, come back
they look at the cameras and, they say.
Speaker 6 (25:00):
Complete task.
Speaker 9 (25:01):
GAME over i was.
Speaker 15 (25:02):
BLOWN away i, Really WAS and i can't help but
to think about all of these Moments Throughout detroit lion's
history where our eyes see, one thing but then the
reality is.
Speaker 6 (25:13):
Something Else now i'm. On raw he extended fully on
that one by the.
Speaker 15 (25:16):
GOAL line i think nine times out of ten they're
looking for that. Full extension they're gonna. Call that but
the touchdown, before, that though where they call it a,
pick play BUT the dB pushed.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
IT out i believe It was tesla. Pushed him smart.
Speaker 15 (25:30):
Play BY, the dv by, the way because if you
push a guy into, somebody else you. Lose balance the
key is when you're running a, pick play you're swimming over,
the guy you're running through. The guy you're making a
move to make it seem like you're. RUNNING around i
THINK the dv, recognized THAT and i, Was like i'm gonna.
Shove him throw my, Balance now i'm. All balance i'm
just trying to.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
Stay up it.
Speaker 15 (25:46):
Looks like i'm leaning one way or, the other and
it looks like a. Pick PLAY but i still think
that was a perfectly. Executed play touchdown By. The lions.
Speaker 6 (25:55):
Game over but here we are again another example of
how we think one thing and the.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Rest, call okay, wait mate you you actually thought THAT
the nfl had something Against.
Speaker 9 (26:05):
The lions.
Speaker 15 (26:07):
People that played for the players that played For the
lions said that, to ME and i thought, To, myself
nah and that. Can't be and then when they took
that catch Away. FROM calvin a Lot of lions Fans
in bears fans and people that, just love, you know
big Plays By, calvin johnson they remember. This play he
caught that. DAMN ball i don't care what anybody said
The whole like, back then it was like the action of.
Speaker 6 (26:26):
The catch you got.
Speaker 15 (26:27):
To catch you go to the ground and get up
and then walk to the, locker room take, a shower
then take the bus home and the flight and then
bury it in. THE backyard i just feel like, that
catch right there was a catch and that just it
just it left the sour taste in. My, mouth listen
the cookie's gonna crumble one way or. THE other i
just felt like we weren't getting, you know. Our crumbs
and that.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Changed football, you know they really did that whole complete the.
PROCESSED nonsense, i mean you're you're an ex. WIDE receiver i,
can't imagine, you know even that play With the ravens where, you,
know uh you got two steps and.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
The football move is to have the ball away From
the that is a. Football. Move YEAH so i don't
know what would you teach you have? To overcatch now
it feels.
Speaker 16 (27:14):
You have to over.
Speaker 6 (27:15):
CATCH listen i feel bad for past.
Speaker 15 (27:18):
Catchers and dbs in particular because one pass catchers we
have to focus on which we're supposed. To do we
get paid to catch, the ball figure out a way
to tuck it away before it gets punched out because
the peanut punch has become. Wildly popular instead of going for,
the tackle guys are just going for. The ball, so catch,
tuck away snug away FROM the dB and then get one.
(27:40):
Two three it's not just, one two it's one, Two
three and to, be honest hold on to that thing
until the.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
Whistle blows don't let.
Speaker 15 (27:47):
It go don't ALLOW the dv to play with it
after the whistle because they might take.
Speaker 6 (27:51):
It away and then on the, FLIP side i feel
bad for some of, these dbs.
Speaker 15 (27:55):
EVEN minebackers a guy catches a ball and then he's
he's base figuring out what his aim point is going.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
To be i'm gonna take this Shoulder and i'm gonna
shove it right into. Your sturtum i'm gonna hit you in.
The shoulder i'm gonna hit you in the. Upper.
Speaker 15 (28:07):
REGION shoot i might try to take out one of,
your Ribs but i'm using my shoulder old. SCHOOL football
a lot of guys when they catch, the rock they
see that and then. They crouch i'm not gonna call,
it coward but they, crouch down which lowers the level of.
Their helmet so now you might have been aiming for this,
right here, my, chest.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
Shoulder maybe even. My rib BUT if i see YOU and.
Speaker 15 (28:29):
I don't want to take that SHOT and i, crouched
Down now i'm putting my helmet in a place where
you weren't intending, to hit and all of, a sudden.
Speaker 6 (28:37):
It's. TARGETING man i feel bad for these dudes trying
to tackle.
Speaker 15 (28:40):
Right now and then if you're going low and taking
out people's cleats, or, knees now all of, a sudden
you're looking.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
Like you're looked at as a guy who doesn't want
to go. Up top so. You're stuck you're.
Speaker 15 (28:50):
Really STUCK so i just feel like there's some rules
that we still got to tweak a little bit without
making the game softer as of some traditional traditionalists would,
like This said NATE Burleson nfl TODAY, on cbs and
you can see Him.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
On netflix that'll Be On, CHRISTMAS Day Nfl Christmas. Game
day he'll be in, the booth cowboys and. The commanders
but you bring up that, punch out it's A violent
i can punch you as HARD as i want in
the army And say i'm going for, the, ball correct
no doubt.
Speaker 15 (29:25):
Hit you you can aim just about anywhere like. You
can you can wink wink miss and hit a guy
and his and.
Speaker 6 (29:32):
His nuggets you can hit him in. His stomach you
can even, you know hit him in his arm and bruise.
Speaker 15 (29:36):
It up but it's a PLAY that i think if
you're doing it with intentionality not to hurt the, BALL
carrier i don't mind it, at all you KNOW what.
I mean i think it's one of the smartest plays. In,
football listen you know if you if your team is
going to rally to, the rock that means the first
guy there can take that that, that guesstimation that that
(29:59):
that risk to go for.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
The ball AND if, i miss you know the troops
are coming.
Speaker 3 (30:03):
Behind me i'm gonna make you make a pick OF
the afc right, Now today.
Speaker 6 (30:09):
All right let's.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Do it who you Got.
Speaker 8 (30:12):
The.
Speaker 15 (30:12):
BUFFALO bills i believe that even when they, win ugly they're.
Still victories and they we've seen them, win big and
we see them put. Up points they're anchored by a
fantastic running Game With, james cook and Then When josh
allen wants.
Speaker 6 (30:27):
To be a, running back you can you can make
any throw in.
Speaker 15 (30:29):
The book the passing game might not be as prolific
as some others in, the league but they run through their.
Tight ends the passing game goes through their tight ends and.
Their defense they're true ben ve. DON'T break i know,
it's cliche but they.
Speaker 8 (30:42):
Are.
Speaker 15 (30:42):
That also let's just talk ABOUT like x factors OR
non x factors being in. Their way this might be
the best Path That josh allen has ever had. To
face we're talking possibly. Know, tomorrow right it looks like
they're on the outside. Looking In No, joe Burrow No.
Patrick mahomes if, not now then. Win now i'm Not
(31:03):
knocking i'm Not. KNOCKING bonnicks i am also Not Knocking
drake May and i'm for sure Not Knocking trevor lawrence
because he might be playing the best football out of
all quarterbacks. Right now but if you're not facing that
big Three, Of mahomes Borough, AND jackson I Think josh
allen has to really take this team and look at them, and,
(31:27):
say listen we are facing some young guys who have
not been in. This position they don't know what it's
like to want close out, of season let alone fight
FOR an afc. Title game so let's take advantage of
the fact that we have. Been there we know what
this feeling is like to be in.
Speaker 6 (31:42):
The postseason oh and, more importantly we know what it's
like to go home AFTER The afc championship game and
then have to watch the rest Of The super bowl
week with the everyday civilian that doesn't. Play FOOTBALL so i.
Speaker 15 (31:58):
Just feel like This is i'm won't call it the
path of least resistance because that will be dismissive To,
The broncos Patriots. AND jaggs i just feel like this
is the best Path that bills fans In this bill's
team has ever seen To A super.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
Bowl run give ME your nfg pick before you got.
Speaker 8 (32:14):
To go this, is.
Speaker 6 (32:17):
Tough man.
Speaker 15 (32:17):
I'm torn It's like i'm torn between, you know, two xes,
you know and then they both fine and we had.
Speaker 6 (32:26):
Good times, You, know listen it's those two x'es are
for two.
Speaker 15 (32:30):
Different Reasons The seattle SEAHAWKS because i played, for Them
and I'm, from seattle and you have to respect the
record and also Beating. The rams speaking Of, The Rams matt,
stafford like that's my, former quarterback so Essentially the rams
ARE my.
Speaker 6 (32:44):
X TWO and i just feel like it's funny because
we saw, that.
Speaker 15 (32:47):
Game right and it was a big time Game, on
thursday and while thinking this is going to help us
decide who we have faith in IN, the nfc not
JUST The, Nfc west seattle wins and people, are, like
YEAH but i still Trust, the rams and, you KNOW
and i, get it there's question marks about how For real.
SEATTLE is i think there's also question Marks How sam
(33:09):
donald will finish the season and show up in. THE
postseason i just think these, two teams one of them
will REPRESENT. The NFC and i know, everybody saying what About,
The Eagles.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
Nate they're figuring? It out yeah, they are but You know, I'm.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Biased okay in the final, fifteen Seconds the rams walk
into a Party and seattle walks into.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
A party which one are you? Taking home how many
DRINKS have?
Speaker 6 (33:31):
I had because it might? Be both.
Speaker 3 (33:37):

that's a. Big win that's biggest win of the weekend

(00:26):
The Niners favored by five and a half at the
Colts tonight. I don't gamble anymore, but the Colts at
home with five and a half. Would I take the
five and a half with the Colts? Yeah, I used
to always do home dog Monday night.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Always always.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Colts with old man rivers. Okay, you know the defense
is what stood out in that loss against Seattle and forty.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
Nine ers don't have a lot of firepower.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
It's basically, you know, basically Christian McCaffrey, who is quietly
having an unbelievable year, but he doesn't like there aren't
highlights when I watch.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
He just doesn't have it feels.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Like that that exter move, that extra burst, that extra gear.
But they go to him, he's going to have over
four hundred touches this year for a guy coming off
injuries and coming back and being the integral part of
that offense. Because quarterbacks have changed, wide receivers have changed,
(01:32):
you lost your two best defensive players. And oh, by
the way, you're in the thickest things and not just
your division but overall. In the NFC all Right poll
question for the final hour of the program, Nate Burlson
on loan from CBS Sports in a little bit Seaton, Yeah, we.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
Got a couple of real negativity Monday Polk questions as
you only come to expect.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
And Paulie is promising an even more negative whole question
coming up as well.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
That's fun.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
Yeah, Paul's first negative pole question, who do you believe
in least Alabama or Miami right now? Miami's got sixty
three percent of that vote. And then which NFC playoff
team do you believe in least? Seahawks Bears, forty nine Ers, Eagles.
The Bears have forty two percent of that vote. Second
place is the Eagles.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
Okay, Eagles can win the Super Bowl again.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
Yes, I mean it's it's kind of weird when you
watch them play, and yes, they've brought in criticism because
it just feels like there's some kind of disconnect with
that coach is quarterback defense isn't as stout as it
has been.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
But you do have skilled position players on offense.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
I don't think anybody compares to them, those two receivers,
that tight end, that running back. And you know, Jalen
Hurts is not a great quarterback. I think he can
play great, but that doesn't mean came a great quarterback. Yeah, Pauling,
here's the new pole question.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
Which fan base of a recently competitive team that was
in the playoff picture just a week or two ago
should feel the worst today? Baltimore Ravens fans uh, Detroit
Lions fans yes? Or Tampa Bay Buccaneers fans lines.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Yeah, the Lions were going to the Super Bowl a
couple of years ago. They're leading at halftime. They were
going to the Super Bowl and probably would have won
the Super Bowl. They may not make the playoffs now,
and it wasn't just yes. I mean, you know now
they're healthy ish. Last year they weren't. You didn't have
(03:43):
Aiden Hutchinson. But I mean Tampa was just they're in
a bad Division. I thought, Okay, all you got to
do is win nine games. You're in the playoffs, and
then you're going to host a playoff game. Maybe you
could catch magic in a bottle, Lightning in bottles, what
they like to say. Jamiir Gibbs caught a touchdown pass
in the loss to the Steelers. He has forty eight
(04:04):
career touchdowns. He passes Barry Sanders for most touchdowns by
a player under the age of twenty four all time.
He has the most touchdowns by a player in his
first three seasons in NFL history.
Speaker 6 (04:22):
Stand of the Day, stant of to day, Statuta day,
stant out to day. This is the Style of the Day,
brought to you.
Speaker 2 (04:32):
By panadi America, the official trading cards for the Dan
Patrick Show. I'll go back to the draft and leading
into the draft, my source said he is a Marshall
Falk kind of running back. And you know, was he
going to be drafted in the first fifteen? Ah, you
don't take you know, running backs up there. But my sources,
(04:54):
an NFL scout, gave us those words that I said
on this show. Jamiir Gibbs, in his opinion, was a
Marshall Fulk kind of player. One of the greatest hybrid
running backs of all time.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
Yeah, Paul, I've got the Detroit Lions draft grades from
that draft. Where they took was that twenty twenty three.
They took Jack Campbell the linebacker and Jamiir Gibbs. I
think they traded up to get them at twelve. Yep,
they got d's D minuses, C minuses way too early.
For Jamir Gibbs. You traded up for a running back
who you could have got five picks later. You don't
(05:27):
take a running you don't take a middle linebacker in
the first round. True, they got ripped up in the draft.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Yeah, but you're getting further and further away from the
super Bowl when you think about it. I mean, I
had him winning the Super Bowl this year. About everybody's healthy,
now's your time, now's your turn. Yeah, Marv.
Speaker 7 (05:49):
As a Lions fan, would you be more upset about
always being terrible or having great expectations and not living
up to them?
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Okay, your pain.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Occurs at different stages, So it's either it could be
January or it could be October where you're not any
good and you're not going anywhere and the pain of
another loss season, or we have a chance to go
to the Super Bowl. I mean, I'll take that crushing
defeat against the Niners.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
I mean it's gonna.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Hurt, but it hurts in a positive way. We got
to that point instead of where the Lions would be like,
how how many losses are they going to have this year?
You gotta have double digit losses that I mean, there
was no heart beat there. Now you have it, which
means you're gonna have a heart attack, and that's what happened.
But you're getting further and further away. And the Bears
(06:47):
are a good team. Packers are a good team, not
as much now with the injuries, but and maybe the
Vikings figured out next year. So if you're a Lions fan,
you're like, we got some pieces here, but you're getting
further and further away from the goal. Yeah, Pauline.
Speaker 5 (07:07):
The Lions are the second best scoring offense in the NFC,
only to the Rams. They've outscored their opponents by seventy
eight points. That's third best in the NFC, and they're
eight and seven.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Here's Dan Campbell on the wild ending to the game yesterday.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
I mean, I don't even want to get into it,
you know, because it's not going to change anything. We
still lost, you know, you know, I mean, look, you
think you score, you don't score, and then you know,
you think you're gonna have another play, replay it or
back it up one more shot, and it doesn't. And
that's just I guess that's the way it's written in
the rule book. So that's frustrating. But there again, it
(07:43):
should never come to that. We had our opportunities, we
weren't able to put it in before that plate.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
They did have opportunities. You know what would help stopping
the run. Who knew the Steelers gonna run for two
hundred yards and you're gonna get fifteen yards. That's the
first drive with Jamir Gibs. Normally, yes, Todd, that was.
Speaker 9 (08:07):
Even more glaring. Stopping the runners one thing.
Speaker 10 (08:08):
But you got these great running backs and you end
up with this fifteen yards from the entire game. That's
just unacceptable when there's a playoff spot in the line.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Anyway, Wait, now you're upset, No.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
I was upset.
Speaker 10 (08:18):
I'm only upset about the Broncos, but in that particular game,
to go a whole game and only have fifteen yards rushing.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
By the way, by the way, do you have a
pie coming?
Speaker 2 (08:27):
I do all right at the end of the end
of the show, because we had Marcus in Jacksonville who
not only said Jacksonville would win the game, they would
win by fourteen, who we assume doesn't.
Speaker 9 (08:37):
Have any special intel with Vegas and the odds.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
It doesn't matter. He had him winning by fourteen. He
gave you thirteen points. With the Broncos at home.
Speaker 10 (08:48):
It got to a point where I knew the Broncos
are going to losing that it was all about rooting
for them to not lose by fourteen.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
How was morale at home yesterday?
Speaker 9 (08:56):
Absolutely horrible?
Speaker 10 (08:57):
And then one of their players gets hurt and gets
taken out on us stretcher with thirty seconds.
Speaker 9 (09:01):
Left, and it looked like really bad.
Speaker 10 (09:02):
Thankfully, latest reports are he's doing okay and he's out
of the hospital. But on top of that and bow
Nicks felt horrible and there's a throw across the middle and.
Speaker 9 (09:10):
He just got crushed.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
You from the breakdown of that game, maybe the name
of the player, yeah, Tony Romo, just give me a number.
Speaker 9 (09:20):
But that happened with thirty seconds left in a fourteen
point game.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
So when that team they threw it to the guy
and then he did the thing. Remember that when that happened,
he got hurt in the body.
Speaker 6 (09:28):
Crazy.
Speaker 5 (09:29):
Yeah, but if you're a Broncos fan, despite yesterday's loss,
you have to feel great right now.
Speaker 6 (09:36):
You could wash that.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
I don't know if you feel great today.
Speaker 5 (09:38):
Entering the playoffs with that defense.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Okay, but I don't feel great today. What did they want?
Speaker 9 (09:44):
Like nine in a row.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
I may feel greater, you know.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
As I you know, remove myself from this loss at
home to Jacksonville.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
I think it's an easy shakeoff. Yeah, well, Todd doesn't
like Taylor Swift to shake it off.
Speaker 9 (09:58):
They're lucky they still have the.
Speaker 10 (10:00):
One seed because I guess they have the tie breaker
with the Pages. But they had an opportunity to jump
a game.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Waits is it they?
Speaker 9 (10:05):
Or we had an opportunity to jump a game on
New en You gotta make up?
Speaker 3 (10:08):
Come on, Okay, it's all.
Speaker 9 (10:09):
We We had him opportunity to jump a game on
New England.
Speaker 10 (10:12):
We had to just to really prove ourselves to the
doubters against a very tough team to keep the winning
streak going. And now we don't even have the AFC
West yet. The Chargers are still looming and we got
to play them in the final week of the season.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Yes, divisions up in the air.
Speaker 7 (10:23):
Okay, Yes, who's distancing themselves more from their team or
Travis Kelcey. It's like, hopefully Mahomes can get back to
the Chiefs, not us. Same thing with him. The Broncos
play terrible.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
Uh did Travis Kelcey play yesterday? Do we even know
his numbers? I I didn't watch the game. I saw
some highlights, but I mean I was just curious. And
then now is the backup quarterback got a torn a ceo?
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Yeah, Gardner Minshew ripped up his knee after eight pass
attempts and it's Chris all it could do or something
like that. I think he's from South South Dakota State.
Speaker 9 (11:02):
Maybe.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Okay, did Kelsey play?
Speaker 9 (11:05):
He did?
Speaker 5 (11:05):
He had one catch for six yards.
Speaker 6 (11:07):
He averaged six yards to catch, thank you. They always
do that.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
They always put those fantasy numbers like Jamior Gibbs one carry,
four yards, four yards per carry.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
It's the first quarter and it's always his big tight end. Yes,
the announcer always says, is big tight end. I you know,
another completion to his big tight end. Nobody says his
undersized tight end. Yeah, his diminutive tight end there. And
it's a young rookie. I mean, unless you're Chris Wank
(11:39):
or Brandon Whedon, most of your rookies are young rookies,
aging rookie. Yes, yes, Marvin the young rookie, that's showing
a lot of promise. Oh yeah, gotta show a lot
of promise. Ashton Gent the young rookie showing a lot
of promise in another loss.
Speaker 10 (11:53):
Yes, are there are five nine hundred and eighty pounds
tight ends out there that people are looking to sign.
Speaker 9 (11:57):
I haven't seen one reason.
Speaker 3 (11:58):
I don't I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
I don't think so they're all you gotta find his
big tight end there. We always like to add another word. Yeah,
it's you can describe it with that word, but you
want to attach another word that is basically the same thing.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
Yes, And if you're really old.
Speaker 10 (12:18):
Or really young, you got to put that at forty
four year old Philip Rivers, he's not just Philip Rivers,
he's forty four year old.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Is there are certain players where you do introduce them
by their age. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Tom Brady was always the forty five year old Tom Brady.
Now it's the forty four year old Philip Rivers or
you know it could be a baseball player.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
He's a little bit older, yes, Marv.
Speaker 7 (12:38):
On the young side, seventeen year old Ryan Williams from Alabama.
They were saying he was seventeen for about two years.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
He used to be a thing.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
Feels like he made a business decision this year, Like
I can't go pro, so I'm just gonna kind of
be out there because they had another receiver who was,
as the kids like to say, ballin in that game.
Speaker 5 (13:00):
Yes, PAULI smallest tight end in the NFL. I just
found it not easy to find Connor Hayward of the Steelers.
He's a fullback tight end, but listed at tight end
six foot two thirty.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Yes, but then look at the other tight end Washington
Mount Washington, Like you see that guy, and i'd be
you want to talk about a safety valve could be
if I'm Aaron Rodgers, I want to know where he
is all the time because he's like six' eight three three.
Speaker 5 (13:28):
Something Paulie Darnell washington uh out Of georgia three eleven
and he's six Seven, yeah so can't he can't be
the big tight end gigantic tight.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
End, hey he might be his big tight. End there
might be his big tight end.
Speaker 11 (13:44):
There.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (13:47):
SEE i feel like The patriots at one time had
a semi undersized tight end at about six, two like
two fifty.
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Baby, Uh but they also Had gronk who was a
much big tight.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
END i feel like six to two he WASN'T i
feel like that person was considered, undersized weren't?
Speaker 3 (14:08):
They, yeah do you have a name And? Hernandez he
was six to two he was, Yeah OH i thought
he was like six.', five.
Speaker 11 (14:17):
No he was.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
SIX two i remember he was basically a. Wide receiver,
oh yeah? Uh not, you, know, Yes.
Speaker 7 (14:23):
Yes ma the word they Would describe hernandez was. A hybrid, they're,
like man he's. A. Hybrid sorry look.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
That changed as his. Career, developed yeah they called him.
Speaker 12 (14:34):
Other.

good job and you know that gives. You hope and
that's WHAT the, Nfl was they. Want that how many

saints were not competitive this year going into. THE season
i know they've only won five but before, the season
no one Liked, the saints.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
But they weren't going to make. The Playoffs what i'm
saying is we wrote.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Them off, oh yeah, so yeah they got five wins
and maybe they found, their quarterback but nobody Said whether
saints are going to make. The playoffs it's probably five to,
six teams which is, you know that's what. You, want
now the other sports don't necessarily, Have, That, Yes.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Martin Giants and jets man the quarterback.

Nfcast rivalry this is going to be one of the
biggest games Of The Year's. Dak prescott they're fighting for
a chance to Make A super. Bowl Run jayden dawns
riding everybody just how good he is at the. Quarterback
position great defenses is. An offense it's not, a chess
it's not a. Checkers game. It's chess all of the
(21:24):
good things that we like to say. In sports and
then it falls off. The Rails the cowboys have another
year of disappointment at not, being contenders and then just
injuries decimated this.
Speaker 6 (21:35):
Commander's team but here's, the thing it still is a.
Speaker 15 (21:39):
Rivalry game and you have a couple of cool people

of making, itself entertaining even if the playoff implications.
Speaker 12 (21:58):

There listen we got a ton. Of stuff we could
Talk about.
Speaker 15 (22:01):
Christmas Movies christmas, day routines we could talk about being

iron Eagle And. Matt ryan then It's the lions In.
The vikings pre game begins at Eleven am Eastern.
Speaker 6 (22:39):
On netflix those two matches sounded really good a few.
Speaker 14 (22:44):
Months ago.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
I'm still trying to figure out how the official says
touchdown and, then, says, however okay so help me understand
that In The lions steelers game and where it's not
a touchdown because there was, A penalty so why would
you start with your ruling calling it a touchdown and
(23:09):
then saying but there was, past interference, no touchdown game
over drive.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
Home.
Speaker 15 (23:13):
Safely, YEAH see, i, Listen man let's keep. It real
THAT'S what i LIKE to i like to keep it real.
WITH you i was drafted By the vikings PLAYING In,
nfc north Went to seattle for, four, years right AND
then i had an opportunity to sign, another DEAL so
i Went to DETROIT and i REMEMBER when i, got
there guys.
Speaker 6 (23:33):
Were scoring they, were, like look, the league the league doesn't,
like Us.
Speaker 15 (23:37):
And nate playing here, is rough not just because we're
trying to, exercise demons but when a game is on,
the line it tends to go the, other way.
Speaker 6 (23:47):
You Know and, I'm like, I'm like, i'm, like, no, no.
Speaker 15 (23:50):
No no i've been in the league for seven, years
NOW and i. Get it there's some, close calls but football, is,
Football right and, they're, like, no, no.
Speaker 6 (23:57):
NO nay i don't think you.
Speaker 15 (23:57):
Understand it when it comes To, the lions there are
certain games that just don't go, our way even though
everybody knows.
Speaker 11 (24:03):
They.
Speaker 6 (24:03):
SHOULD now i remember, questioning that, doubting that and then
one year we open Up. In chicago it's a. Close game.
Speaker 15 (24:11):
You know those division games are really like two and
It's the lions Versus. The bears We're. In chicago, last
Minute hell mary threw Up To. Calvin johnson he. Catches
it he has it in, one hand prominent with his big.
Old mits he slides on. The hip he even has
like an elbow down and then he goes to get
up on both hands and one still has the ball,
(24:32):
in it and he just pushes himself up off the
ground even lest the. Ball go Even The, chicago bears
we're dapping, us up saying a, good game.

BLOWN away i, Really WAS and i can't help but
to think about all of these Moments Throughout detroit lion's
history where our eyes see, one thing but then the
reality is.
Speaker 6 (25:13):
Something Else now i'm. On raw he extended fully on
that one by the.
Speaker 15 (25:16):
GOAL line i think nine times out of ten they're
looking for that. Full extension they're gonna. Call that but
the touchdown, before, that though where they call it a,
pick play BUT the dB pushed.
Speaker 6 (25:27):
IT out i believe It was tesla. Pushed him smart.
Speaker 15 (25:30):
Play BY, the dv by, the way because if you
push a guy into, somebody else you. Lose balance the
key is when you're running a, pick play you're swimming over,
the guy you're running through. The guy you're making a
move to make it seem like you're. RUNNING around i
THINK the dv, recognized THAT and i, Was like i'm gonna.
Shove him throw my, Balance now i'm. All balance i'm
just trying to.
Speaker 6 (25:46):
Stay up it.
Speaker 15 (25:46):
Looks like i'm leaning one way or, the other and
it looks like a. Pick PLAY but i still think
that was a perfectly. Executed play touchdown By. The lions.
Speaker 6 (25:55):
Game over but here we are again another example of
how we think one thing and the.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
Rest, call okay, wait mate you you actually thought THAT
the nfl had something Against.
Speaker 9 (26:05):
The lions.
Speaker 15 (26:07):
People that played for the players that played For the
lions said that, to ME and i thought, To, myself
nah and that. Can't be and then when they took
that catch Away. FROM calvin a Lot of lions Fans
in bears fans and people that, just love, you know
big Plays By, calvin johnson they remember. This play he
caught that. DAMN ball i don't care what anybody said
The whole like, back then it was like the action of.
Speaker 6 (26:26):
The catch you got.
Speaker 15 (26:27):
To catch you go to the ground and get up
and then walk to the, locker room take, a shower
then take the bus home and the flight and then
bury it in. THE backyard i just feel like, that
catch right there was a catch and that just it
just it left the sour taste in. My, mouth listen
the cookie's gonna crumble one way or. THE other i
just felt like we weren't getting, you know. Our crumbs
and that.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Changed football, you know they really did that whole complete the.
PROCESSED nonsense, i mean you're you're an ex. WIDE receiver i,
can't imagine, you know even that play With the ravens where, you,
know uh you got two steps and.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
The football move is to have the ball away From
the that is a. Football. Move YEAH so i don't
know what would you teach you have? To overcatch now
it feels.
Speaker 16 (27:14):
You have to over.
Speaker 6 (27:15):
CATCH listen i feel bad for past.
Speaker 15 (27:18):
Catchers and dbs in particular because one pass catchers we
have to focus on which we're supposed. To do we
get paid to catch, the ball figure out a way
to tuck it away before it gets punched out because
the peanut punch has become. Wildly popular instead of going for,
the tackle guys are just going for. The ball, so catch,
tuck away snug away FROM the dB and then get one.
(27:40):
Two three it's not just, one two it's one, Two
three and to, be honest hold on to that thing
until the.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
Whistle blows don't let.
Speaker 15 (27:47):
It go don't ALLOW the dv to play with it
after the whistle because they might take.
Speaker 6 (27:51):
It away and then on the, FLIP side i feel
bad for some of, these dbs.
Speaker 15 (27:55):
EVEN minebackers a guy catches a ball and then he's
he's base figuring out what his aim point is going.
Speaker 6 (28:01):
To be i'm gonna take this Shoulder and i'm gonna
shove it right into. Your sturtum i'm gonna hit you in.
The shoulder i'm gonna hit you in the. Upper.
Speaker 15 (28:07):
REGION shoot i might try to take out one of,
your Ribs but i'm using my shoulder old. SCHOOL football
a lot of guys when they catch, the rock they
see that and then. They crouch i'm not gonna call,
it coward but they, crouch down which lowers the level of.
Their helmet so now you might have been aiming for this,
right here, my, chest.
Speaker 6 (28:27):
Shoulder maybe even. My rib BUT if i see YOU and.
Speaker 15 (28:29):
I don't want to take that SHOT and i, crouched
Down now i'm putting my helmet in a place where
you weren't intending, to hit and all of, a sudden.
Speaker 6 (28:37):
It's. TARGETING man i feel bad for these dudes trying
to tackle.
Speaker 15 (28:40):
Right now and then if you're going low and taking
out people's cleats, or, knees now all of, a sudden
you're looking.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
Like you're looked at as a guy who doesn't want
to go. Up top so. You're stuck you're.
Speaker 15 (28:50):
Really STUCK so i just feel like there's some rules
that we still got to tweak a little bit without
making the game softer as of some traditional traditionalists would,
like This said NATE Burleson nfl TODAY, on cbs and
you can see Him.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
On netflix that'll Be On, CHRISTMAS Day Nfl Christmas. Game
day he'll be in, the booth cowboys and. The commanders
but you bring up that, punch out it's A violent
i can punch you as HARD as i want in
the army And say i'm going for, the, ball correct
no doubt.
Speaker 15 (29:25):
Hit you you can aim just about anywhere like. You
can you can wink wink miss and hit a guy
and his and.
Speaker 6 (29:32):
His nuggets you can hit him in. His stomach you
can even, you know hit him in his arm and bruise.
Speaker 15 (29:36):
It up but it's a PLAY that i think if
you're doing it with intentionality not to hurt the, BALL
carrier i don't mind it, at all you KNOW what.
I mean i think it's one of the smartest plays. In,
football listen you know if you if your team is
going to rally to, the rock that means the first
guy there can take that that, that guesstimation that that
(29:59):
that risk to go for.
Speaker 6 (30:01):
The ball AND if, i miss you know the troops
are coming.
Speaker 3 (30:03):
Behind me i'm gonna make you make a pick OF
the afc right, Now today.
Speaker 6 (30:09):
All right let's.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Do it who you Got.
Speaker 8 (30:12):
The.
Speaker 15 (30:12):
BUFFALO bills i believe that even when they, win ugly they're.
Still victories and they we've seen them, win big and
we see them put. Up points they're anchored by a
fantastic running Game With, james cook and Then When josh
allen wants.
Speaker 6 (30:27):
To be a, running back you can you can make
any throw in.
Speaker 15 (30:29):
The book the passing game might not be as prolific
as some others in, the league but they run through their.
Tight ends the passing game goes through their tight ends and.
Their defense they're true ben ve. DON'T break i know,
it's cliche but they.
Speaker 8 (30:42):
Are.
Speaker 15 (30:42):
That also let's just talk ABOUT like x factors OR
non x factors being in. Their way this might be
the best Path That josh allen has ever had. To
face we're talking possibly. Know, tomorrow right it looks like
they're on the outside. Looking In No, joe Burrow No.
Patrick mahomes if, not now then. Win now i'm Not
(31:03):
knocking i'm Not. KNOCKING bonnicks i am also Not Knocking
drake May and i'm for sure Not Knocking trevor lawrence
because he might be playing the best football out of
all quarterbacks. Right now but if you're not facing that
big Three, Of mahomes Borough, AND jackson I Think josh
allen has to really take this team and look at them, and,
(31:27):
say listen we are facing some young guys who have
not been in. This position they don't know what it's
like to want close out, of season let alone fight
FOR an afc. Title game so let's take advantage of
the fact that we have. Been there we know what
this feeling is like to be in.
Speaker 6 (31:42):
The postseason oh and, more importantly we know what it's
like to go home AFTER The afc championship game and
then have to watch the rest Of The super bowl
week with the everyday civilian that doesn't. Play FOOTBALL so i.
Speaker 15 (31:58):
Just feel like This is i'm won't call it the
path of least resistance because that will be dismissive To,
The broncos Patriots. AND jaggs i just feel like this
is the best Path that bills fans In this bill's
team has ever seen To A super.
Speaker 3 (32:11):
Bowl run give ME your nfg pick before you got.
Speaker 8 (32:14):
To go this, is.
Speaker 6 (32:17):
Tough man.
Speaker 15 (32:17):
I'm torn It's like i'm torn between, you know, two xes,
you know and then they both fine and we had.
Speaker 6 (32:26):
Good times, You, know listen it's those two x'es are
for two.
Speaker 15 (32:30):
Different Reasons The seattle SEAHAWKS because i played, for Them
and I'm, from seattle and you have to respect the
record and also Beating. The rams speaking Of, The Rams matt,
stafford like that's my, former quarterback so Essentially the rams
ARE my.
Speaker 6 (32:44):
X TWO and i just feel like it's funny because
we saw, that.
Speaker 15 (32:47):
Game right and it was a big time Game, on
thursday and while thinking this is going to help us
decide who we have faith in IN, the nfc not
JUST The, Nfc west seattle wins and people, are, like
YEAH but i still Trust, the rams and, you KNOW
and i, get it there's question marks about how For real.
SEATTLE is i think there's also question Marks How sam
(33:09):
donald will finish the season and show up in. THE
postseason i just think these, two teams one of them
will REPRESENT. The NFC and i know, everybody saying what About,
The Eagles.
Speaker 6 (33:18):
Nate they're figuring? It out yeah, they are but You know, I'm.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
Biased okay in the final, fifteen Seconds the rams walk
into a Party and seattle walks into.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
A party which one are you? Taking home how many
DRINKS have?
Speaker 6 (33:31):
I had because it might? Be both.
Speaker 3 (33:37):
Thanks for, joining us, all? Right man thank you you

In The miami hurricanes less Than The Alabama, crimson tide
And the bears are CURRENTLY the nfc. Playoff team you
believe in.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
The, LEAST okay i would think IN the AFC if
i said you believe In the, jags More the, texans
More the patriots And. The, broncos now recency bias would
probably people would be buying Into the jags because they
that's a. Big win that's biggest win of the weekend
(35:03):
and the biggest surprise of.
Speaker 3 (35:05):
The weekend you beat, that team, that defense and you
score that. Many points. That's, IMPRESSIVE, YEAH pauli i don't.
Speaker 5 (35:13):

big names but it Feels Like drake may's in every
ballgame and it doesn't matter what the.
