Speaker 2 (00:11):
Hey everybody, this is Good Morning Football, present of my
Old Trap of Beef Jerky. It's Monday, November twenty fourth,
Thanksgiving week.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Welcome inside.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
It's good because if you have like awkward family functions
coming up this week, the games were quite uncomfortable yesterday,
so we just got warmed up for the week of
the holiday. Jamie heard all here in LA with my
guy Nance, I say you as always, And in New
York on a Monday sits Willie Cologne and Kyle Brandt
going through his Bears T shirt collection.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
I see.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Yeah, listen, Hey, I only wear one when the Bears
win on Sunday, and the Bears win pretty much every Sunday, Willie.
This week, though they played Friday against the team that
had a really, really weird day yesterday. Are you already
get into it, Willi Colone?
Speaker 4 (00:51):
No, because your Bears beat Mustel Hey like you're throwing
shots early scoreboard.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Let's find out and let's start with Eagles Conboys. But
first let's start with this.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Welcome to Good Morning Football, presented by Old Trapper.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
That's right, GMFB. You know what camera. Let's come on, let's.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Give this pie a big old gander over here, shall
we come on?
Speaker 1 (01:24):
We gotta get their name on GMFB in.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
A whip cream.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Look at it, Look at it. That's all so good?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
All right. This is the week of the pie. It's
the week of whipped cream.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
It's the week of bringing something to somebody's house, whether
it be a gift, a bottle of wine, a dessert,
or just an old fashioned rub it in your face.
Because my team beat your team, it's a great thing sometimes.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
You know what I mean, Willie, Yeah, I mean I'm
all about pie. Look at me. I love the sound
of that whip right down the hatch, guys. But Eagles
Cowboys goes down easier too. Two big teams, a lot
of scoring, a lot of drama. Let's find out how
it happened to because this is a real conversation to
(02:07):
be here. We go, all right, the Cowboys. They have
not beaten the team the winning record this year. The
Eagles have won three straight in this rivalry. That's very unusual.
Early on aj Row but he likes most catching the
ball in the Kelly greens. What's that? What was he
doing that? I think he's just Charlie raaking it up,
creaking it up, cranking it up, breaking up. Well, they're
fourteen nothing and he has a sidekick the slim man
(02:27):
looking Oh my god, the bone with the glow in
the dark shoes. Hell of a catch. It's turning into
just kind of an Eagles sort of sparring competition. And
then we're doing the touch bush body blow boom own
brand twenty one nothing. This game feels horrible, but not
so fast, my friends. Third quarter up twenty one to seven,
and Dak says, I'll start chucking. You think I won't,
(02:48):
I'll do it right now. CD, what a catch like
at Cooper? Cooper's used all over him. He's gonna end
up getting flagged for this, and he makes the catch. Anyways,
it was not the best second half for Cooper, for
anybody wearing Kelly Green, because hold on, Dak says, on
a first and gold rolling rolling, and who does he
go to. You think that's Shake Ferguson, it's not. It's
Brevan spam Ford. Look't that second year guy to Minnesota,
(03:11):
Brevan spam For It's a B E r V y
n B. I can't even spell it. Spell six points
stuff twenty one fourteen Dak on the first and that
picka all Hey pickings. The most watchable player in the
NFL right now not named Jameis Winston. I mean we
miss him in Pittsburgh. I'm telling you listen. I know
that they were done with him in Pittsburgh in a
(03:32):
lot of ways. But he he's incredibly He's over a
thousand yards already. Only two guys in the league go
go dead deck and the seven DAK gets a block
from down. We got a tie game. Boys and girls
go for glory? What the heck's going on out here?
All right? Twenty one off? If I'm showing a pun,
something crazy happens. That's the rule. It wasn't blocked, so
Xavier Gibbon is gonna catch it on the two yard line.
(03:52):
Not smart. And then watch here as he's trying to
get down the sideline, boom, Hey jack up fumbled. It's
recovered by Trent Sig, the long snapper. What do you think, really, bam?
Speaker 4 (04:03):
This is how you get Mando all heart all head.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Turnover, Elijah Clark, Marquise Bell. They caused the fumble, my guy,
Trent Sig from Colorado State recovers. I love when the
long snapper gets involved. Thirty goal though, Dak he hit CD.
Watch you think this was broken up? Watch the replay.
It was a horrible drop. See he's got to have
it and he's furious with himself. Drops the ball. The
Jeane's there on the coverage. That is an incomplete So
(04:27):
fourth and goal. Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak deck Dak
doesn't have it, caught it short. Eagles defense was bad
on the second half, but give him credit there. That's
a really good stand and everyone's furious about it. Hold
on though, ensuing Eagle's possession. This is the worst play
for Jalen Hursts all day, third and two. Do anything
but this bad? Why isn't a bad Saquelin? Why?
Speaker 4 (04:49):
Because look at the time you need you have up
to the ice that game, march down to put the
boots on alcod on fourth if you don't have to.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Sack, all right, But then you get the ball back.
Dak's doing his thing. Jake Ferguson, you have Brandon Roger,
you can kick one from the pas so just sitting
on the sideline me, I got no problem. Oh, no pickins.
I thought he was gonna house it right there, right there,
run out to hit the Jets and into glory. But
he gets tackled, which is probably a good thing. Guess
why because they bleed down the clock and here comes
(05:17):
seventeen and see boo day later. Unbelievable win for the Cowboys.
I shouldn't say that. Unbelievable, not literally incredible win at home.
Jared setting up Thanksgiving in front of Jerry. Great second half,
the pickings trade looks amazing, and there's a gobbling turkey.
We got a TURKEYO, we got a turkey. All right.
So the Eagles also now we're not going to see
(05:39):
them till Friday where they play at home against the
Red Hot Bears. But afterwards, let's hear from Jalen Hurts
and Dak Prescott. Just believe, believe, believes. I believe a
thousand times, and you gotta respect it.
Speaker 5 (05:51):
Yeah, that game was needed, and no, never never blinked,
never had any doubt, and one thousand percent believed from
the beginning. I mean there was times, right, I'm telling guys, believe, believe,
And then there was a moment there in the fourth
quarter or book goes believe and I go, I know
we're done with the belief. We've believed long enough and
we've got ourselves back in this game. Like now you've
got to know. And so that's just it's a testament
(06:13):
to this brotherhood.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Definitely the tail of two halves.
Speaker 6 (06:16):
But in the end, we didn't play a complete game
as a team, and today it got us give a
lot of respect to Dallas and their team. How they
competed something question right now is just how we respond
to it.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Man.
Speaker 6 (06:29):
I have a lot of confidence in how we respond.
We got to own this one, let it, let it
light of fire in us as a team and stay
together and move forward.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
I think it was six beliefs by that Creshcott in
that postgame presser, what a comeback by the Cowboys twenty
four unanswered Manti to be is that where you go
firsthand at the hands of the Cowboys quarterback, who is
telling everybody believe that was back.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
The difference for you, well, that was a big difference
for me, Jamie. I mean he staged and helped lead
the biggest comeback or tied for the biggest comeback in
franchise history. Being down twenty one to zero. You have
to believe something at that point. I mean, I don't
think anybody in this situation with doubt that this game
is over when it's twenty one to zero. But Dak
Prescott put on a phenomenal performance. Three fifty three hundred
(07:12):
and fifty four yards, two passing touchdowns and a rushing
touchdown which he looked like John Alway diving into the
end zone.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
He was perfect against the blitz.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
And I think that's what was so impressive about me
when you looked at Dak Prescott going against this Philadelphia
Egos defense where for the past two weeks shut out
some of the best offenses in the league with the
Lions and then with the Packers. But Dak Prescott goes
out there against that defense in the red zone, he
turns those situations in two touchdowns. Instead, the field goes
(07:41):
late in the game and they staged a comeback. So
I thought it was such a gutsy performance by Dak
Prescott and that offense, especially late in the game against again,
a defense that has continued to dominate people in fashions
that we haven't seen and when put in those similar situations,
Dak Prescott he performed for his team. So Willie I
was extremely impressed by dak.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Yeah, Dallas was down twenty one zip, and I'm saying
to myself, hopefully get this game over so I can
be on time for Mom's lasagna.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
If it felt like a board.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
But nevertheless, man, in the second half, you start to
see that.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Eagles start to really impose that will I mean.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Javonte Williams, the running back for the Dallas Cowboys. He
takes one right in the chops from n Kobe Dean,
and I'm saying, where's the heart, where's the fight?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Right here?
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Man? Look at Davonte Wibbs gets to step up, pow right,
the Chops get the sack. The Kobe Deans shows up,
pops off the tape, the birds are dancing. I'm like,
how is this happening in Jerry's world? Dallas is home
there Broughs me a jugging at a home and your
running back says, I don't want no smoke. But then
I'm saying to myself, you know what this is, Dallas,
(08:44):
This is that, this is Jerry all this something has
to stop. And then the fourth quarter comes Davonte Wibbs,
My dad is watching, my middle school teacher's watching.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I'm all hard I'm not going out like this. I
got something for you.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Come back A damns up be completed to George Pickens.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
That was a big play.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
And then you start to see this team really start
the game momental big plays at the big plays, Gosh
showing up, Alijah forgives there, Alijah Cark the big playoffs
special team. You have Ferguson, you had Dak, you had
that play right there. So you talk about heart and fight.
It took all the way to the fourth quarter to
come alive with plays like that for this Cowboys offense
(09:24):
to really pop man. So that won't be talked about enough,
but it should be when they review the tape about
heart that Cliff awesome Cliff.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
I love that he bounce back from that. I also
just love this Cowboys team is really fun and they
are fun to watch. Their fun to be around. The
first half wasn't that fun, but I like the personalities
to make up this team. You have to watch George
Pickens right now. I'm telling you he is the top
three most watchable player in the league. Every time he's
around the ball, you get up out of your seat
when you're at home. Dak is Dak CD is CD like,
(09:53):
I am so pleasantly surprised how this is setting up
for Thanksgiving. This is when we all watch the Cowboys.
This is Americana, and they're really fun. The record is
not great, and I don't know if we're gonna be
able to get this team in the playoffs not, but
they have the makings of a come running team in
the NFC and they just came back down twenty one
to nothing. I have all positive by from the Cowboys
right now. As for Philadelphia, what a terrible loss. Terrible.
(10:15):
I'm gonna switch the vibes completely. You were up twenty
one to nothing with that defense and that alleged running game.
That's a win. You can't lose that game. And by
the way, guys, I said for the entire month of August,
and I hate being right about this, that we are
not going to get some crazy Saquon performance this season.
You just don't follow the two thousand yard season with it. Historically,
I don't know it's going to be this bad. Saquon Barkley,
(10:36):
the all time home run hitter of the last handful
of years in the NFL, has not had a run
of over fifteen yards for three straight games. Fifty eight
times the Philadelphiagas have called his number, and fifty eight
times that run has stopped with fifteen or left. That's
not sa Saquon. Let you with seventy six out of nowhere,
hill you with sixty five, he'll you with eighty. He
(10:56):
can't get out of the backfield. And if you wonder
the recipe of how the world champs with that roster
blow a twenty one nothing lead, it's very simple. Your
star running back fumbles, your punt returner fumbles, you missed
a field goal, you commit six hundred different penalties, and
your offense is terrible. I'm at the moment this being like, guys,
we are almost a Thanksgiving. The running game is not
what it was, It's not what it's going to be.
(11:18):
Should we just open this thing up? Should we have
Jalen Hurts throw it fifty times and run it fifteen times?
Because it's time for answers? Now? It is not time. Well,
we're just stacking wins. We're figuring out who we are. No,
it's getting cold. You just got beat by the Cowboys,
you guys. The offense is really, really, really a mystery.
And they got a team on Friday that doesn't care
in Chicago and could beat them the sake one thing
(11:40):
is not working. You can keep pounding them over and
over again. It's not the same thing. So what is
your answer to that? What is the novelty? What is
the innovation? I don't see it coming. We're about three
months into the season. If they don't figure out fast,
they're going to be a quick.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Out cowboys on the outside looking in on the NFC.
As Kyle mentioned, they're the second of three games of Thanksgiving.
They'll take on the Chiefs and the Eagles. Well, they're
in a bit of a funk, a Saykom called himself.
His teammates trying to back him out of it. Kyle,
you know who's not in a funk. It's the team
that plays across the street here at SOFI Stadium. My word,
how good do the Rams look at the top of
(12:14):
the NFC?
Speaker 4 (12:15):
Huh?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
That was great? All right? So Bucks, Rams, this was
just target practice for Stafford Baker's there. The Bucks have
all kinds of problems, but that man right there just
shows up. Aaron Donald could have played in this game.
He would have dominated. It doesn't matter. We're going to
say that for the next ten years about Donald. Here
we go pookut number twelve version not seventeen, but twelve.
I'm telling you, Stafford just sits back there. He's like,
there's no chance on that thrown interception, maybe a few incompletions,
(12:38):
I'll throw it up top to Davonte touchdown, no problem,
all right. So they're rolling. They got a quick touchdown.
How bad is it going to get? Look at they're
just laughing on the sideline. Devonte' is I've never had
more fun. And he's played with an MVP quarterback, Kate Aughton.
The look the fabric of our lives and he lets
go of what happened here? Will? It looks like this
one's going to the house.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
I mean it ended of to day. The rams is
dominated on Deefess. They have Baker's number, Baker to even
finished the gate.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
This got credit it to an interception to Baker one
hundred percent. And you got to pull that thing in, dude,
I mean that's it was a rough, rough place. So
Kobe Durant makes a huge playing credit to him. Aaron
Donald's sitting behind his own bibble Foker like money, I know,
fourteen nothing, no twenty one to nothing. Kobe Parkinson says,
I want in Cobe finished with four catches forty one
Stafford twenty five to thirty five, three touchdowns, no picks,
(13:25):
hasn't started picking like two months. Baker, give us something, brother,
They'll give you this all day long. To his discredit.
Sometimes I love it, and this is the Baker experience.
This wasn't enough. It wasn't enough, and it's gonna get
him banged up. All right, four plays later, second and four.
We always get some Ted Johnson.
Speaker 8 (13:42):
Right.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Notice you're not seeing Mike Evans out there. Still there's Godwin,
but Baker wincing on his non throwing shoulder, and he's
had issers that shoulder in the past. You hate to
see this. This is terrible. It's a guy who was
the story of the first two months of the season.
Stafford's like, no, I'm the story of the second two months.
Friends twenty one to seven. Devonte right, it's just target practice,
thirty three years old, still putting up tuggs. Gotta love.
(14:04):
I love Devonte, you love Stafford. I said, the Cowboys
are likable. This RAMS team is really fun and it's
just shocking awe through the air. On the ground, those
two guys are making back, and then thirty one to seven.
You're trying to throw a hail Mary at the end
of the second quarter, because why not. Baker can throw
it seventy five yards if he has to. But he
falls down and it's the never mind. The ball is intercepted,
(14:28):
but Baker goes and he's immediately down, not on the
shoulders he threw it with, but on the left shoulder.
It didn't look vicious, but it looked like he was
already injured from before. So we're gonna have information on
this just momentarily from rap Shee who's standing by. But
he's in street closed now. And is that a sling?
That's a damn sling in the middle of what have
to be a playoff push. The Bucks have a lot
(14:49):
of problems, and they used to be they had a
great record. They don't have a great record anymore. Six
and five. The Rams might be the best team in
the end attire NFL thirty four and seven. If you're saying, oh,
there's no great teams, the Rams are a great team.
But Jamie ard All tell take us to the standings
and what pop out to you.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Well, I'll also take you to a word that people
care about sometimes, and that's favorites and odds and whatnot.
The Rams of Jettison themselves the top of every one
of those Super Bowl conversations, as has Stafford with an
MVP conversation as well.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Stafford ridiculous in the last eight games.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
And that's what puts the Rams at the left side
of your screen right now, which makes like I just
said before, Thanksgivings fascinating because the Cowboys lurk, the Lions lurk,
and we care about all those teams in the middle,
and we're going to get to you teams, but we
want to talk Manti and Willie and Kyle about the
Rams specifically and the fact that Stafford Willy and his
last eight can you believe it, twenty five tds to zero,
(15:43):
give them the ball away?
Speaker 3 (15:45):
I mean that ridiculous, twenty five nothing Willy? What else
can you expand on them?
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Well, he continues to defy the odds.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
We got to understand the start of the season, we
didn't know if he was going to be healthy enough
to make a.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Few this season.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
There was so much talk about his back and what
he looked like and how he was going to get
through man, He's been absolutely outstanding.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
And last night you walked the Ram pretty much bugg
the bucks.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
I mean this look like we witnessed the Muggy all
through all four quarters solely because of what Stafford is
able to do within the pocket.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
And Sean McVay has continued to grow.
Speaker 4 (16:16):
You talk about their thirteenth personnel, you talk about having
it multitude of tight ends, a long as a pukah
and Devonte Adams and you talk about this office line
continue to stand up and keep Stafford clean. I don't know,
and I'm saying to siously, I don't know if there's
a team in the NFC that can beat the Rams
right now.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
And I'm talking about the Seahawks.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
We can see what happened to them, talk about the Eagles,
on and on and on.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
I don't think anybody wants.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
To see the Rams solely how great they're playing on
all three phases, defensively, offensively and special teams. If you're
the Rams right now, they fear nobody, bring anybody, and
they'll eat them up.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
And I think Kyle hit it right on the head.
He said, listen. Davonte Adams thirty three years old, All
Pro Pro bowler. He's having fun.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
It feels like he's out there with the homies just
kicking it and it's lighting it up. He looks like
he's rejuvenated himself solely because the playoff. Matthew Stafford. Matthew
Stafford is the MVP of the league right now. He's
taking it away. I don't think there's another person close
to him at this plane as well as he is
right now. So credit the Rams, credit Stafford, credit Sean mcvray.
They're hot and they're rolling.
Speaker 7 (17:17):
It's crazy, Willy because five past five weeks, this is
Matt Stafford's touchdowns. Five against Jaggs, four against the Saints,
four against San Fran, two against Seattle last week, and
three last night. It contented he continues to just impress
and be in that MVP category. And I said this
back in August fifth, I look back at this. If
you're going to run cover one against the Rams, store
(17:37):
it in the trash can. But the Bucks decided to
run cover one against the Rams last night, and they
got hurt twice with Davante Adams down there in the
goal line. Right when Matt Stafford saw that dB go
with that tight end and that little jet motion. You know,
they were in Cover one and he threw it to
DeVante Adams. The second touchdown, he saw that the safety
is in the middle of the field and threw it
to DeVante Adams. Tony Romo in that Chiefs first Coats game,
(17:59):
who was saying all day long, Patrick Mahomes has to
throw this ball outside the.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Numbers, you know why.
Speaker 7 (18:04):
And Cover one, the middle of that defense is congested.
But when you have somebody like DeVante Adams that can
win those one to one matchups where you can just
throw the ball up there the way that Matt Stafford
does so eloquently and beautifully, and it just happened to
land in that guy's hands every single time, not to
mention one of the best to ever do it in
DeVante Adams. You get that type of result. So not
(18:25):
only is that connection to DeVante Adams extremely lethal, but
that defense for the LA Rams has for the past
two weeks shown that they too can be the reason
why they win the Super Bowl. And that's why I
think the LA Rams is going to there's gonna be
something to deal with.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
I hear a lot of chatter I see it online
and people I talk to football about you know there
aren't any really great teams this year, or the football
is bad, the primetime Degabeth. This is a great team, right,
this is maybe the great team. If you look over,
I'm talking to best team in the NFL. You look
over in the AFC, there's some teams with some really
good records. It's quarterbacks we don't know if we trust yet.
It's Drake May, It's BONICKX. There's some other ones in
(19:00):
the NFC. It's the same thing. The Bears have a
good record. This team not only has a great record.
Let's remind ourselves, guys. The two losses, the two Rams
losses this year. Think back to this season. They had
the blocked field goal against Philly. They were lining up
to kick the game winning field goal. They lose to
Philly in that way, and then they lost in overtime
to the Niners on a Thursday night. Thursday night games
are always weird. That's all that's keeping them for perfection.
(19:23):
In the meantime, we try to pick apart these teams
with good records. They haven't beaten anybody, no quality wins.
They've beaten Houston, Indie, Baltimore, Jacksonville, San franc Seattle, and Tampa.
All those teams matter. All those teams at one point
have mattered. Will matters still do matter? All I see
when I look at this this game yesterday was atrocious.
And I respect Tampa, but this was an atrocious game
(19:44):
that was never, never, ever in doubt. You just watched
this game, and the only question you ask is who's
going to beat this team in the NFC playoffs? Who's
going to do it? Is it Philly? I mean, they
got all kinds of problems right now. Is it Detroit?
I don't know where we are with Detroit. Is it Chicago?
Chicago seems to beat everybody, but I look at them
and I'm like, different weight class. This team looks like
(20:05):
a heavyweight. Everybody else looks like maybe in middleweight at
the best. And it's just that is our question about
the Rams. Will you lose the game in the playoffs,
because we know you're going to be there. It's probably
going to go through so far. It's just that it's
at a time when we're really starting to look at
style points. Who really has it? There's this team and
then not only everybody else in the NFC, everybody else
(20:25):
in the NFL. I think the gap between one and
two is as big as the gap between two and ten.
It's really that big of a gap.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
And it hasn't been an easy street for the Rams either.
They went to London for five minutes and beat the
Jaguars there, so it's not like they've just had all
these home games.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Travel has been fine. The Rams are built to last.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
Now.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
You cannot say the same luxury about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
They have been riddled with injury ian rapaport since the
start of this season, and it feels like it caught
up with them last night. Not only could Baker Mayfield
not find options offensively, he himself ended the game in
the second half with the non throwing arm in a sling.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
What's the latest with the Bucks quarterback?
Speaker 9 (21:01):
This is sposed to be the time when the Tampa
Bay Buccaneers were getting healthy. Chris Godwin was finally back
last night. Bucky Irvin slated to be back next week. Instead,
it's another potentially significant injury for Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Baker Mayfield.
Speaker 9 (21:15):
You mentioned it was on the sideline in a sling,
a left shoulder injury. He is believed to have suffered
a shoulder sprain. He's gonna have an MRI today to
determine the full extent of this injury. Certainly possible that
he could miss some time now. Baker Mayfield plays through
basically everything, played through a partially torn labrim on his
left side when he was with the Browns.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I believe that was his last year with the Browns,
so he has.
Speaker 9 (21:37):
Done it before. So as little time as he can miss,
as possible as what Baker will do, but EMRI today
that will tell this story. Teddy Bridgewater is the backup
for Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
All eyes are on that situation. All eyes of course,
we're on the Las Vegas Raiders. Last night.
Speaker 9 (21:54):
Their offense has been a massive, massive disaster this whole year.
It's not just the play of Gino Smith, basically their
entire offense. Pete Carroll took action last night firing Chip
Kelly after another brutal, brutal loss, this time to the
Cleveland Browns. Gino Smith o sack ten times and Pete
Carroll said postgame, seemed to be pretty frustrated, pretty pretty
(22:15):
fed up. Our quarterback was under durest.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
The entire time.
Speaker 9 (22:18):
So Chip Kelly, the NFL's highest paid coordinator, out the
second coordinator that Pete Carroll has fired, also fired a special.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Teams coach, Tom McMahon.
Speaker 9 (22:26):
And for the Patriots, they had another potential significant situation,
this time Will Campbell, their left tackle, their first round pick,
one of their best players, is believed to have suffered
an mcl spring in his knee. Mike were Able just
went on local radio and said he believes that Will
Campbell's going to miss more than one or two games.
My understanding is he is an injured reserve candidate. He's
(22:49):
going to have an MRI today. More information coming the hope.
The hope is that this is something that he can
return for later in the season, potentially for the playoffs.
But all that information is not here yet, so we'll
be waiting throughout the day.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Rap Sheet, Thanks pat sally the win against the Bengals yesterday,
but it did not come without some major injury, that
just being one of them for the Patriots. We'll keep
an eye on that until then. We are headed squarely
for Thursday football and it's the special kind, the John
Madden Thanksgiving celebration.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Line them up, knock them down. It's three games.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
Packers Lions lead your day at one pm Eastern on Fox.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Then Chiefs Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
That is a doozy for CBS as your second game
of the day four to thirty pm Eastern Just I
don't know, reset your dinner time. A lot of people
eat at four thirty on Thursdays.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Eat it a different time.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Leave that game on, and then Bengals Ravens eight to
twenty pm on NBC with the Chris Collinsworth Slide. Congrats
to Palmsworth last night. What a what a mark he's
made broadcasting so many games. Spantai is a Thanksgiving triple
header on the twenty seven, but we still have the
rest of our show today.
Speaker 7 (23:51):
You know, if you ball out on Thanksgiving, one of
the best traditions.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
As you get a tur duck in Turkey lift. It
was last night that man right there would have got
a turk duck in.
Speaker 7 (23:58):
In his performance against their win against the Giants, what
a win by Jamier gives on the line for goal
over and more in his week twelve performance, Kyle, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Gibbs is unfair, I mean unbelievable, Like how fast he is.
There's a way they're catching him. Plus all right, Chiefs
Colts huge steaks in Arrowhead. You think the Chiefs are
gonna just lie down and go to sleep. I'm so fast,
my friend. We gotta talk all about this game. What
does it mean for Kansas City? What does it mean
for Indianapolis too? Who lost? Coming off to buy all
(24:29):
the games, all.
Speaker 10 (24:30):
The touchdowns, all the pie. It's Thanksgiving. We get in here,
good mon, moll.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
All right, here we go, Colts Chiefs really looking forward
to this. When Patrick Mahomes has never lost three regular
season games in a row in his entire career, that
would be the case series. Down twenty to nine at home,
Kareem hunt this guy, if you got any carries? He
had just had thirty carries, Like it's nineteen ninety four
or something. I don't do that anymore. He carries? Who
is he? Ricky Williams? What are we doing? All right?
(25:07):
On a third and ten, Daniel Jones, still with the lead,
tries to move the chains. Mechanic clutch tackle there and
Michael Pittman Jr. So the Chiefs, you know the story.
They don't win close games. They haven't this year. Down
a fourth and three, Mahomes do something, Yes, Rashee Rice,
great throw and catch. He's just trying to house this thing.
But he goes down. Tick tick tick tick tick tick
tick tick. This is really dramatic here, all right, under
(25:30):
thirty seconds to play, third and goal. Chiefs trying to
rip the Colts hard out give the Colts. They got
a lot of heart, great goal line stand mall gets sacked.
But wait a second, now, fourth and goal, they got
a kick right, yes, twenty to twenty. Guess what we're
doing going overtime? Overtime. Colts win the toss to give
us the ball third and one at their own forty two,
and Jonathan Taylor is stuck, stuck by Drew tranquil and
(25:53):
threadibile play. I don't right. It was so big.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
Chris Jones showed up, that whole defensive line stood up strong.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Taylor had his second fewest yards this season, only fifty eighth.
The Chiefs defense was great. They don't allow hundred yard rushers,
but twenty to twenty on a third and seve Oh
my gosh, Xavier were the great catch thirty one yards.
My homes finished throwing forty six passes a lot of
yards and not throw a touchdown. And then, as they
so often have, these Chiefs games end with a Harrison
Butker field goal it is over the Colts. We have
(26:20):
not seen him in a couple of weeks. They were
on a bye. They come back and lose a game
that they were winning by double digits, and Andy Reid
just stays alive. They are the Michael Myers. You think
they're down and they get up there now six and five.
They're not in the playoffs yet, but to go to
five and six, I think we would have to let
them go. Here we go two of the biggest, most
celebrate athletes on the planet, the tight end and the
(26:43):
quarterback in Kannessee.
Speaker 8 (26:45):
It's kind of the urgency thing. I mean, obviously you
want to be urgent, but it was do or die
type thing where you had to make something happen, and
guys may plays happen throughout the entire team. Wasn't one person,
it was everybody. Everybody made plays and the biggest moments
and we found a way to win.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Oh man, you just believe, you just believe every snap. No,
it's the best man. He's our fairlest leader. Man.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
That guy's the most competitive human being I know, and
we love him for how he leads this team both
on the field and practice throughout the week.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
And right now, Man, he's leading us into victory. Man,
it's the best.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Fully, the closest of friends can mock one of the
greatest quarterbacks ever and get away with the Travis Kelsey
well done, stuck the landing on it. But he's trying
to evaluate what's going on with the Chiefs. When you
have Mahomes under center, Willie, you're always going to be
able to gut it out.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
But here's the thing. Can the Chiefs gut it out
down the stretch? They are lurking. They are six and five.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
They match the Texans and the Steelers in the record books.
This is the AFC playoff pixture. They still have a
couple of teams in their division to beat. But Willie,
when you see the quarterback, the Mahomes era, everything that's
been going on with Kansas City, who's the quarterback the
difference maker for you?
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Yesterday?
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Yeah, this was the Kansas City Chiefs, remembering who they are.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Defense was gritty, Harrison Bucker was awesome, fought field goals
in a game where winner, but he came down to
one man and now was Patrick Mahomes and his ability
to put on the cape. He was surgically good.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Man.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
You talk about managing chaos, and this is exactly what
he did in the second half, especially in the fourth
quarter and overtime.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Man, it's about winning on early downs. Yeah, they want
to be better.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
I think the one for six in the red zone
that can't happen, especially if you have hopes of going
back to the Super Bowl. But he came down to
Patrick Mahomes saying, enough is enough.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
We got a close games.
Speaker 4 (28:22):
They were oning five one score games and they're looking
at they're at home versus the Colts.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Who are money hot right now.
Speaker 4 (28:29):
Patrick Mahomes had to shoulder this team and he did
so methodically time after time, getting the ball into this
playmaker's hands, looking down the field, making players happen time
after time, and allowing this office to thrive through him.
So you talk about while Patrick Mahomes is who he
is to time MVP because he can manage chaos, he
can manage stress, and he takes the pressure off other
(28:51):
players and make it happen in crucial sit crucial situations.
It's all about winning a situational football.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
He's the best of the league at it. Yeah, wellie,
this has definitely been what the Chiefs have been able
to do.
Speaker 7 (29:01):
Right you have Patrick Mahomes laden games help put your
team in situation to win those games. But again, it
happens because the defense. It happens because Spags and in
the fourth quarter there are three three drives for nine
plays eleven total yards. They're down by eleven points and
that defense comes up huge. Jonathan Taylor in the fourth
quarter had one rush for negative two yards. Why is
(29:24):
Johnthan Taylor only running the ball for one time in
the fourth quarter, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
But when he did run the ball it was negative
two yards. And overtime two carries for a total of
three yards.
Speaker 7 (29:33):
For two quarters, fourth quarter and overtime he had three
rushes for one yard.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
That is dominant. So when you talk about the Chiefs
and is.
Speaker 7 (29:41):
This what we're used to seeing from the Chiefs, Yes,
this is what we're used to seeing. We're used to
seeing Spags in that defense carry that team throughout the season,
carry that team during games, and then late giving it
over to Patrick Mahomes and say here, do something with
what we just put on the plate for you and
make it happen. And so I really love what Spags
and that defense did late in the game because, to
(30:02):
be honest, all of that stuff that Patrick was able
to do, wouldn't be wouldn't be worth anything, Kyle if
that defense didn't give them the chance to do it.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
So shout out to SPEC's defense. Definitely the story of
the game. Defense the story of the last two years. Really,
it's we talk about it Mahomes and Kelsey and all
these great players. It's the defense is so fantastic and
they were incredible yesterday. I can't believe it's on Thursday.
It's chief said Cowboys. I mean, is two hundred million
people gonna watch that game? I am a so I
there's two in this room, four thirty in the afternoon
(30:32):
on the CBS. What a game. I just can't We're
going to talk about it all week. The Chiefs, you
knew they were going to win this game. Deep inside you,
even if you're a skeptic, even if you love the Colts,
maybe even if you're on the Colts, I knew the
Chiefs are going to win this game. They weren't going
to go, oh, well, five and six at home we
lost to the Colts. Like, it's not going to end
(30:53):
that way this They may lose later in the season
and we'll get into that. They got a lot of
work to do still, and they may lose in the
wild card round. They weren't going to lose. To go
to five and six at home in front of arrowheads
of the Colt. It just wasn't going to happen. It doesn't.
They had to run cream Hunt thirty times. Mahomes threw
a ton of passes, they ran a ton of plays.
They were losing. It was ugly. It's not pretty. This
highlight that we just did. I feel like we just
(31:15):
pulled it from last year's team, the team that won
the AFC. Ugly. The highlights aren't these great, pleasing, school
looking plays. I don't see Jamir Gibbs or George Pickens.
There's not really a ton of that. But sure enough
they do this thing where Mahomes scrambles and outcomes Harrison
Bucker and the Chiefs win, and you cut to Andy
Reid walking on. This is where they live, this is
what they do. They got a lot of problems and
(31:37):
the schedule remaining like they got to go. I think
four and two the rest of the way. I think
four and two in the last six games will get
them to ten and seven and they get a wild card.
All right, but you're seeing it there Dallas, Houston, the Chargers, Titans,
never mind none. But then after that you got Denver again. JUNI,
you have four wins out of six, because I think
three wins out of six, I don't think they get in.
(31:59):
I want the Chiefs in. Whether you know it or not.
You want the Chiefs in. They should be in to
be properly dealt with if somebody beats them out. I
don't want the AFC Playoffs without the Homes. I want
them in. And they got to go four and two togein.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
And I think we know this week is all about Turkey,
but this game and the chief season is plays into
something that Kyle talks about all the time, which is steaks.
And now every weekend we got it right. Every weekend
it matters and that's why.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
It's compelling television.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
And it begins for all of us and apparently two
hundred million of our closest friends on Thursday that midday
game on CBS back on GMFB, Jags polts, this thing
mattered for the AFC. Jags did their best, honestly to
cough this game up, and they just couldn't get it done.
Jagg's Cardinals thank you so much. A different team with
the Sea. Look at Trevor Lawrence slinging it to Parker
Washington in the.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Back of the end zone.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Okay, little Parker Washington and Saley nine yard TD Jaggs
would retake the lead there, but.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
The Cardinals they come fighting back. Now we're in overtime.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
Brisset Jakobe Brissette with the star for the at QB.
Because Kyler Murray's on IR can't get this thing completed.
Fourth and four, they try to drop it in Xavier
Weaver double teams, Jaguars win it. They escape twenty seven
to twenty four.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
Liam Cone with another epic locker room celebration.
Speaker 7 (33:12):
Let's go to Tennessee Jamie Sam Darnold and the Seattle
Seahawks after a four interception game last wuit against the Rams.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
Can he bounce back? But we answered that emphatically.
Speaker 7 (33:20):
Throwing the ball to the number one receiver in the NFL,
Jackson Smith and jigbu I don't know what was more
impressive with that catch or the stiff arm throw down
for six points.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
Jackson Smith and Jigbua is just phenomenal. But then third
quarter would come. Okay, Seahawks are leading sixteen to three,
and it's the formula.
Speaker 7 (33:37):
Throw the ball to that man, Jackson, Smith and Jigbu
again thirteen yards strike for another touchdown. Seattle Seahawks will
win thirty to twenty four. Smith and Jiggle will break
dk Metcals single season franchise wreck for it ony three
hundred and.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Three yards in twenty twenty. He just broke that and
it's still going. I love it.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
It's like September and he already did it. Jamiir Gibbs,
incredible day. I don't even have to tell you how
he did it. But who was the last running back
to pull off a game that he hadry. We're just
going to join the show with a trivia question that
always tries to stump us, but I heard we get
a little bit of a leg up today because we
always look at her with such a quizzical look on
her face, like Sherry, what we're gonna have the answer?
I promised jami Or Gibbs looking him up.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Good morning football.
Speaker 11 (34:31):
Well, the Lion's holding off the Giants yesterday thirty four
to twenty seven in overtime. This turning into the Jamir
Gibbs game on the ground, he had fifteen carries for
two hundred and nineteen yards two touchdowns, and if that
just wasn't enough, he getted eleven catches for forty five yards.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
And a touchdown.
Speaker 11 (34:49):
Starting your little Monday morning Matt Donna, were you two
hundred and nineteen yards on the ground eleven catches that
all equaled three touchdowns?
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Forgives?
Speaker 11 (34:58):
So this got us thinking little Monday morning trivia. Also,
when was the last time someone had over two hundred
yards rushing in at least ten catches this time? Like
you mentioned that, Jamie, we're going to give you options
a Alvin Kamara, B Marshall falk See, Edward James or
d Ladinian Tomlinson.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Does anybody want? I mean r Jamie, you go first.
Speaker 2 (35:21):
Just the names on the list would imply how challenging
this is. Yeah, I kind of want to see a
LaDainian Tomlins in a highlight to start my day, so
I'll go ELT. I have no other logic besides, I
want to see the NFL films full well.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
My mind is either LT or it's Alvin Camaro. Hm.
I'm agree with you, Jamie. I think LT. I mean,
I guess him all the time on the show. So
what on lt who you guys got Willie Billy, all right,
we're gonna do Willie and I usually have the same answer.
So we're going, we're gonna we're gonna do is. We're
gonna say one two three and then say our answer
and suit we say, all right, so one two three,
(35:56):
Marshall falk oh ed in, Marshall faulk Okay, okay. So
we got a couple of different answers.
Speaker 10 (36:02):
We go.
Speaker 11 (36:02):
This one is a little bit of a question because
the answer is La Dani and Tomlin said.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
You guys did get back. But he is not just
the last one to do it.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
He's the only this one matter. In Week thirteen of
the two thousand and two seasons.
Speaker 11 (36:18):
To get the Broncos nice stret work, guys, Elti had
two hundred and twenty rushing yards and three touchdowns thirty
seven carries to go along with eleven catches for fifty
one yards the chargers thirty twenty seven overtime win.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
You always need overtime to do it.
Speaker 11 (36:35):
Absolutely, you wanted to see those Elti highlights you.
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Have with that beautiful orchestral highlights.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
I love a multiple choice, you know what I mean,
you know what, I'm kidding up by elimination. You know, man, Si,
we're not playing in the game. You don't have to
warm up when we do rewind that. Man, Remember you're like.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Week twelve edition to rewind that. Really you get to
go first. Well, here he goes cracking the neck. Willy,
what do you got for this play?
Speaker 1 (37:03):
Man?
Speaker 4 (37:03):
We got to take it to Philly versus the Dallas Cowboys.
Davonte Smith, it must be the shoes. I haven't seen
a catch like this in a long time. You talk
about spitty. He tapped the matrix button on this bag,
lips on his head. Listen, I don't know how you
felt after the game, but if I did this, I'll
probably be in a wheelchair. This guy looked amazing. This
is the hell of it.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
Catch the sideline jumped up. Talk about the concentration, the
body control. It must be the shoes.
Speaker 4 (37:29):
Looking at right, that's a man cave photo, folks, it's
something you put in your man came to show your
grand kids and your kids daddy.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
Was hit ab At what point is life?
Speaker 3 (37:38):
That's perfect? Damon, It's a very well done.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
Everybody is parents on the show and also watching today
everybody closed your eyes. Remember when you were teaching your
kids how to ride their bike. He took off the
training wheels, and you send them down even just the lowest,
the slightest of hills for the first time, and they
go careening towards a mailbox and you're like, oh.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
My god, avoid the mailbox.
Speaker 3 (37:59):
And then they do and they.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Clear it, and you're like, my life just passed before
my eyes. That's how that Jake Bates kicked went for
the Detroit Lions yesterday.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
Did you guys see this thing let's go. Do you realize? Okay,
that looked like it was in the whole way.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
But when you watch this low end zone camera angle,
watch how far right this thing went before it came
back in amazing.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
Oh my gosh, kid.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
The mailbox will always win.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
The upright will always win. But if you take baits,
you took that.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Thing in on your career long fifty nine yard can't
what coach is like?
Speaker 1 (38:33):
Its?
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Seriously, did it have to be that close? Why are
my armpit sweatings?
Speaker 1 (38:38):
Magnet was pulling that bull to it up for it?
So I love that.
Speaker 7 (38:40):
I'm gonna say the same game, Jamie, because my rewind
that moment came when Jamis Winston did.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
You see that? Like Gunner rolls out and I'm like,
and this whole video, I'm like, no, don't do it,
don't do it. You just run it. No, no, no,
don't do it, and definitely don't throw it to this guy.
And then Jamis come catches the ball, tell us, Derek Barnes,
get off me, Derek spins get this whole entire thing
is rewind that, rewind the past, rewind the player, Rewind Jamis.
Speaker 7 (39:05):
Guys, I have never cheered so loud and so hard
for one guy to get to win in my life
than trying to get Jameis Winston get a win for
the New York Giants.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
I thought this was phenomenal by Jameis Winston. Just the effort,
the charisma, the finger row at the end.
Speaker 7 (39:18):
I love you, James, Oh, get them, get them, get
everything about Jamos.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
I just love Rewind that dude. That's my rewind that moment.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
Jamiebe personality and he's so fun.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Guys, it's easy to forget that Jamis is a crazy athlete,
like unbelievable athlete, college baseball pitcher. Heisman won over number
one of I mean he is an amazingly talented guy
that we just get lost because the content is so fun.
This cannot get lost. Roll the footage of Elijah Clark,
all the players on the field watch thirty eight. Boom,
(39:49):
get up, boom, get up, get up, get downfield, find
the ball there it is. Locate the ball, closed in,
throw your shoulders back, bumble, turnover, Elijah Clark. That is
the biggest play of the game for America's team. This
is an undrafted dude, a rookie out of Syracuse who
got cut in the preseason, was on the practice squad,
(40:12):
activated to the active rosters, now on special teams. In
this giant Jerry Jones machine, if Dak Prescott and George
Pickens and Ceedee Lamb and all these amazing players, undrafted,
Elijah Clark out of Syracuse makes the play of the
day against the arch rival. Awesome, awesome, awesome play, effort, determination,
fight physics, fight talent, get yourself some gatorade. Elijah Clark.
(40:34):
Number thirty eight. What a number. If a dude were
a number thirty eight, you can best believe he's probably
an undrafted guy. But Elijah Clark, you made that look
good and I absolutely love. I'm gonna show that play
to my son. Okay.
Speaker 7 (40:44):
So for anybody that's never been in that situation where
they get they get hit that way.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
And they're on the ground.
Speaker 7 (40:50):
You guys have those dreams where you're trying to hit
somebody and it's like forever for your arm to come across.
Speaker 1 (40:54):
It's like it's is taking fornever.
Speaker 7 (40:56):
Whenever you get hit on you butt like that, the
come up is that's the longest point five seconds of
your life.
Speaker 1 (41:03):
You don't know where the the freaking defender is going
to finish you. He's gonna lie on top of you.
So Elijah Clark, the fact that he.
Speaker 7 (41:09):
Gets hit like this still gets up, he gets hit again,
keeps his balance and finishes the play the way that he.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
Did, Guys, is this is just another level of effort
will power. Oh I love it for the count and
then again run it again.
Speaker 3 (41:23):
I love too long.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
Snappers coming down with Clark, and it looks like at
one point someone's got their controls on a video game remote.
And if you watch two of them as they come
down and they're pursuing the ball, they change direction perfectly
at the exact same time. Watch as near all the
other way and that perfect left pursue ball, tackle ball,
get on ball.
Speaker 3 (41:44):
That was perfection.
Speaker 1 (41:45):
Well done, good football,

York on a Monday sits Willie Cologne and Kyle Brandt
going through his Bears T shirt collection.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
I see.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Yeah, listen, Hey, I only wear one when the Bears
win on Sunday, and the Bears win pretty much every Sunday, Willie.
This week, though they played Friday against the team that
had a really, really weird day yesterday. Are you already
get into it, Willi Colone?
Speaker 4 (00:51):
No, because your Bears beat Mustel Hey like you're throwing
shots early scoreboard.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Let's find out and let's start with Eagles Conboys. But
first let's start with this.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Welcome to Good Morning Football, presented by Old Trapper.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
That's right, GMFB. You know what camera. Let's come on, let's.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Give this pie a big old gander over here, shall
we come on?
Speaker 1 (01:24):
We gotta get their name on GMFB in.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
A whip cream.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Look at it, Look at it. That's all so good?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
All right. This is the week of the pie. It's
the week of whipped cream.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
It's the week of bringing something to somebody's house, whether
it be a gift, a bottle of wine, a dessert,
or just an old fashioned rub it in your face.
Because my team beat your team, it's a great thing sometimes.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
You know what I mean, Willie, Yeah, I mean I'm
all about pie. Look at me. I love the sound
of that whip right down the hatch, guys. But Eagles
Cowboys goes down easier too. Two big teams, a lot
of scoring, a lot of drama. Let's find out how
it happened to because this is a real conversation to
(02:07):
be here. We go, all right, the Cowboys. They have
not beaten the team the winning record this year. The
Eagles have won three straight in this rivalry. That's very unusual.
Early on aj Row but he likes most catching the
ball in the Kelly greens. What's that? What was he
doing that? I think he's just Charlie raaking it up,
creaking it up, cranking it up, breaking up. Well, they're
fourteen nothing and he has a sidekick the slim man
(02:27):
looking Oh my god, the bone with the glow in
the dark shoes. Hell of a catch. It's turning into
just kind of an Eagles sort of sparring competition. And
then we're doing the touch bush body blow boom own
brand twenty one nothing. This game feels horrible, but not
so fast, my friends. Third quarter up twenty one to seven,
and Dak says, I'll start chucking. You think I won't,
(02:48):
I'll do it right now. CD, what a catch like
at Cooper? Cooper's used all over him. He's gonna end
up getting flagged for this, and he makes the catch. Anyways,
it was not the best second half for Cooper, for
anybody wearing Kelly Green, because hold on, Dak says, on
a first and gold rolling rolling, and who does he
go to. You think that's Shake Ferguson, it's not. It's
Brevan spam Ford. Look't that second year guy to Minnesota,
(03:11):
Brevan spam For It's a B E r V y
n B. I can't even spell it. Spell six points
stuff twenty one fourteen Dak on the first and that
picka all Hey pickings. The most watchable player in the
NFL right now not named Jameis Winston. I mean we
miss him in Pittsburgh. I'm telling you listen. I know
that they were done with him in Pittsburgh in a
(03:32):
lot of ways. But he he's incredibly He's over a
thousand yards already. Only two guys in the league go
go dead deck and the seven DAK gets a block
from down. We got a tie game. Boys and girls
go for glory? What the heck's going on out here?
All right? Twenty one off? If I'm showing a pun,
something crazy happens. That's the rule. It wasn't blocked, so
Xavier Gibbon is gonna catch it on the two yard line.
(03:52):
Not smart. And then watch here as he's trying to
get down the sideline, boom, Hey jack up fumbled. It's
recovered by Trent Sig, the long snapper. What do you think, really, bam?
Speaker 4 (04:03):
This is how you get Mando all heart all head.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Turnover, Elijah Clark, Marquise Bell. They caused the fumble, my guy,
Trent Sig from Colorado State recovers. I love when the
long snapper gets involved. Thirty goal though, Dak he hit CD.
Watch you think this was broken up? Watch the replay.
It was a horrible drop. See he's got to have
it and he's furious with himself. Drops the ball. The
Jeane's there on the coverage. That is an incomplete So
(04:27):
fourth and goal. Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak, Dak deck Dak
doesn't have it, caught it short. Eagles defense was bad
on the second half, but give him credit there. That's
a really good stand and everyone's furious about it. Hold
on though, ensuing Eagle's possession. This is the worst play
for Jalen Hursts all day, third and two. Do anything
but this bad? Why isn't a bad Saquelin? Why?
Speaker 4 (04:49):
Because look at the time you need you have up
to the ice that game, march down to put the
boots on alcod on fourth if you don't have to.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Sack, all right, But then you get the ball back.
Dak's doing his thing. Jake Ferguson, you have Brandon Roger,
you can kick one from the pas so just sitting
on the sideline me, I got no problem. Oh, no pickins.
I thought he was gonna house it right there, right there,
run out to hit the Jets and into glory. But
he gets tackled, which is probably a good thing. Guess
why because they bleed down the clock and here comes
(05:17):
seventeen and see boo day later. Unbelievable win for the Cowboys.
I shouldn't say that. Unbelievable, not literally incredible win at home.
Jared setting up Thanksgiving in front of Jerry. Great second half,
the pickings trade looks amazing, and there's a gobbling turkey.
We got a TURKEYO, we got a turkey. All right.
So the Eagles also now we're not going to see
(05:39):
them till Friday where they play at home against the
Red Hot Bears. But afterwards, let's hear from Jalen Hurts
and Dak Prescott. Just believe, believe, believes. I believe a
thousand times, and you gotta respect it.
Speaker 5 (05:51):
Yeah, that game was needed, and no, never never blinked,
never had any doubt, and one thousand percent believed from
the beginning. I mean there was times, right, I'm telling guys, believe, believe,
And then there was a moment there in the fourth
quarter or book goes believe and I go, I know
we're done with the belief. We've believed long enough and
we've got ourselves back in this game. Like now you've
got to know. And so that's just it's a testament
(06:13):
to this brotherhood.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Definitely the tail of two halves.
Speaker 6 (06:16):
But in the end, we didn't play a complete game
as a team, and today it got us give a
lot of respect to Dallas and their team. How they
competed something question right now is just how we respond
to it.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Man.
Speaker 6 (06:29):
I have a lot of confidence in how we respond.
We got to own this one, let it, let it
light of fire in us as a team and stay
together and move forward.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
I think it was six beliefs by that Creshcott in
that postgame presser, what a comeback by the Cowboys twenty
four unanswered Manti to be is that where you go
firsthand at the hands of the Cowboys quarterback, who is
telling everybody believe that was back.
Speaker 7 (06:50):
The difference for you, well, that was a big difference
for me, Jamie. I mean he staged and helped lead
the biggest comeback or tied for the biggest comeback in
franchise history. Being down twenty one to zero. You have
to believe something at that point. I mean, I don't
think anybody in this situation with doubt that this game
is over when it's twenty one to zero. But Dak
Prescott put on a phenomenal performance. Three fifty three hundred
(07:12):
and fifty four yards, two passing touchdowns and a rushing
touchdown which he looked like John Alway diving into the
end zone.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
He was perfect against the blitz.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
And I think that's what was so impressive about me
when you looked at Dak Prescott going against this Philadelphia
Egos defense where for the past two weeks shut out
some of the best offenses in the league with the
Lions and then with the Packers. But Dak Prescott goes
out there against that defense in the red zone, he
turns those situations in two touchdowns. Instead, the field goes
(07:41):
late in the game and they staged a comeback. So
I thought it was such a gutsy performance by Dak
Prescott and that offense, especially late in the game against again,
a defense that has continued to dominate people in fashions
that we haven't seen and when put in those similar situations,
Dak Prescott he performed for his team. So Willie I
was extremely impressed by dak.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Yeah, Dallas was down twenty one zip, and I'm saying
to myself, hopefully get this game over so I can
be on time for Mom's lasagna.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
If it felt like a board.
Speaker 4 (08:09):
But nevertheless, man, in the second half, you start to
see that.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
Eagles start to really impose that will I mean.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Javonte Williams, the running back for the Dallas Cowboys. He
takes one right in the chops from n Kobe Dean,
and I'm saying, where's the heart, where's the fight?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Right here?
Speaker 4 (08:23):
Man? Look at Davonte Wibbs gets to step up, pow right,
the Chops get the sack. The Kobe Deans shows up,
pops off the tape, the birds are dancing. I'm like,
how is this happening in Jerry's world? Dallas is home
there Broughs me a jugging at a home and your
running back says, I don't want no smoke. But then
I'm saying to myself, you know what this is, Dallas,
(08:44):
This is that, this is Jerry all this something has
to stop. And then the fourth quarter comes Davonte Wibbs,
My dad is watching, my middle school teacher's watching.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I'm all hard I'm not going out like this. I
got something for you.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Come back A damns up be completed to George Pickens.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
That was a big play.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
And then you start to see this team really start
the game momental big plays at the big plays, Gosh
showing up, Alijah forgives there, Alijah Cark the big playoffs
special team. You have Ferguson, you had Dak, you had
that play right there. So you talk about heart and fight.
It took all the way to the fourth quarter to
come alive with plays like that for this Cowboys offense
(09:24):
to really pop man. So that won't be talked about enough,
but it should be when they review the tape about
heart that Cliff awesome Cliff.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
I love that he bounce back from that. I also
just love this Cowboys team is really fun and they
are fun to watch. Their fun to be around. The
first half wasn't that fun, but I like the personalities
to make up this team. You have to watch George
Pickens right now. I'm telling you he is the top
three most watchable player in the league. Every time he's
around the ball, you get up out of your seat
when you're at home. Dak is Dak CD is CD like,
(09:53):
I am so pleasantly surprised how this is setting up
for Thanksgiving. This is when we all watch the Cowboys.
This is Americana, and they're really fun. The record is
not great, and I don't know if we're gonna be
able to get this team in the playoffs not, but
they have the makings of a come running team in
the NFC and they just came back down twenty one
to nothing. I have all positive by from the Cowboys
right now. As for Philadelphia, what a terrible loss. Terrible.
(10:15):
I'm gonna switch the vibes completely. You were up twenty
one to nothing with that defense and that alleged running game.
That's a win. You can't lose that game. And by
the way, guys, I said for the entire month of August,
and I hate being right about this, that we are
not going to get some crazy Saquon performance this season.
You just don't follow the two thousand yard season with it. Historically,
I don't know it's going to be this bad. Saquon Barkley,
(10:36):
the all time home run hitter of the last handful
of years in the NFL, has not had a run
of over fifteen yards for three straight games. Fifty eight
times the Philadelphiagas have called his number, and fifty eight
times that run has stopped with fifteen or left. That's
not sa Saquon. Let you with seventy six out of nowhere,
hill you with sixty five, he'll you with eighty. He
(10:56):
can't get out of the backfield. And if you wonder
the recipe of how the world champs with that roster
blow a twenty one nothing lead, it's very simple. Your
star running back fumbles, your punt returner fumbles, you missed
a field goal, you commit six hundred different penalties, and
your offense is terrible. I'm at the moment this being like, guys,
we are almost a Thanksgiving. The running game is not
what it was, It's not what it's going to be.
(11:18):
Should we just open this thing up? Should we have
Jalen Hurts throw it fifty times and run it fifteen times?
Because it's time for answers? Now? It is not time. Well,
we're just stacking wins. We're figuring out who we are. No,
it's getting cold. You just got beat by the Cowboys,
you guys. The offense is really, really, really a mystery.
And they got a team on Friday that doesn't care
in Chicago and could beat them the sake one thing
(11:40):
is not working. You can keep pounding them over and
over again. It's not the same thing. So what is
your answer to that? What is the novelty? What is
the innovation? I don't see it coming. We're about three
months into the season. If they don't figure out fast,
they're going to be a quick.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Out cowboys on the outside looking in on the NFC.
As Kyle mentioned, they're the second of three games of Thanksgiving.
They'll take on the Chiefs and the Eagles. Well, they're
in a bit of a funk, a Saykom called himself.
His teammates trying to back him out of it. Kyle,
you know who's not in a funk. It's the team
that plays across the street here at SOFI Stadium. My word,
how good do the Rams look at the top of
(12:14):
the NFC?
Speaker 4 (12:15):
Huh?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
That was great? All right? So Bucks, Rams, this was
just target practice for Stafford Baker's there. The Bucks have
all kinds of problems, but that man right there just
shows up. Aaron Donald could have played in this game.
He would have dominated. It doesn't matter. We're going to
say that for the next ten years about Donald. Here
we go pookut number twelve version not seventeen, but twelve.
I'm telling you, Stafford just sits back there. He's like,
there's no chance on that thrown interception, maybe a few incompletions,
(12:38):
I'll throw it up top to Davonte touchdown, no problem,
all right. So they're rolling. They got a quick touchdown.
How bad is it going to get? Look at they're
just laughing on the sideline. Devonte' is I've never had
more fun. And he's played with an MVP quarterback, Kate Aughton.
The look the fabric of our lives and he lets
go of what happened here? Will? It looks like this
one's going to the house.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
I mean it ended of to day. The rams is
dominated on Deefess. They have Baker's number, Baker to even
finished the gate.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
This got credit it to an interception to Baker one
hundred percent. And you got to pull that thing in, dude,
I mean that's it was a rough, rough place. So
Kobe Durant makes a huge playing credit to him. Aaron
Donald's sitting behind his own bibble Foker like money, I know,
fourteen nothing, no twenty one to nothing. Kobe Parkinson says,
I want in Cobe finished with four catches forty one
Stafford twenty five to thirty five, three touchdowns, no picks,
(13:25):
hasn't started picking like two months. Baker, give us something, brother,
They'll give you this all day long. To his discredit.
Sometimes I love it, and this is the Baker experience.
This wasn't enough. It wasn't enough, and it's gonna get
him banged up. All right, four plays later, second and four.
We always get some Ted Johnson.
Speaker 8 (13:42):
Right.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
Notice you're not seeing Mike Evans out there. Still there's Godwin,
but Baker wincing on his non throwing shoulder, and he's
had issers that shoulder in the past. You hate to
see this. This is terrible. It's a guy who was
the story of the first two months of the season.
Stafford's like, no, I'm the story of the second two months.
Friends twenty one to seven. Devonte right, it's just target practice,
thirty three years old, still putting up tuggs. Gotta love.
(14:04):
I love Devonte, you love Stafford. I said, the Cowboys
are likable. This RAMS team is really fun and it's
just shocking awe through the air. On the ground, those
two guys are making back, and then thirty one to seven.
You're trying to throw a hail Mary at the end
of the second quarter, because why not. Baker can throw
it seventy five yards if he has to. But he
falls down and it's the never mind. The ball is intercepted,
(14:28):
but Baker goes and he's immediately down, not on the
shoulders he threw it with, but on the left shoulder.
It didn't look vicious, but it looked like he was
already injured from before. So we're gonna have information on
this just momentarily from rap Shee who's standing by. But
he's in street closed now. And is that a sling?
That's a damn sling in the middle of what have
to be a playoff push. The Bucks have a lot
(14:49):
of problems, and they used to be they had a
great record. They don't have a great record anymore. Six
and five. The Rams might be the best team in
the end attire NFL thirty four and seven. If you're saying, oh,
there's no great teams, the Rams are a great team.
But Jamie ard All tell take us to the standings
and what pop out to you.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Well, I'll also take you to a word that people
care about sometimes, and that's favorites and odds and whatnot.
The Rams of Jettison themselves the top of every one
of those Super Bowl conversations, as has Stafford with an
MVP conversation as well.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Stafford ridiculous in the last eight games.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
And that's what puts the Rams at the left side
of your screen right now, which makes like I just
said before, Thanksgivings fascinating because the Cowboys lurk, the Lions lurk,
and we care about all those teams in the middle,
and we're going to get to you teams, but we
want to talk Manti and Willie and Kyle about the
Rams specifically and the fact that Stafford Willy and his
last eight can you believe it, twenty five tds to zero,
(15:43):
give them the ball away?
Speaker 3 (15:45):
I mean that ridiculous, twenty five nothing Willy? What else
can you expand on them?
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Well, he continues to defy the odds.
Speaker 4 (15:51):
We got to understand the start of the season, we
didn't know if he was going to be healthy enough
to make a.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Few this season.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
There was so much talk about his back and what
he looked like and how he was going to get
through man, He's been absolutely outstanding.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
And last night you walked the Ram pretty much bugg
the bucks.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
I mean this look like we witnessed the Muggy all
through all four quarters solely because of what Stafford is
able to do within the pocket.
Speaker 1 (16:14):
And Sean McVay has continued to grow.
Speaker 4 (16:16):
You talk about their thirteenth personnel, you talk about having
it multitude of tight ends, a long as a pukah
and Devonte Adams and you talk about this office line
continue to stand up and keep Stafford clean. I don't know,
and I'm saying to siously, I don't know if there's
a team in the NFC that can beat the Rams
right now.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
And I'm talking about the Seahawks.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
We can see what happened to them, talk about the Eagles,
on and on and on.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
I don't think anybody wants.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
To see the Rams solely how great they're playing on
all three phases, defensively, offensively and special teams. If you're
the Rams right now, they fear nobody, bring anybody, and
they'll eat them up.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
And I think Kyle hit it right on the head.
He said, listen. Davonte Adams thirty three years old, All
Pro Pro bowler. He's having fun.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
It feels like he's out there with the homies just
kicking it and it's lighting it up. He looks like
he's rejuvenated himself solely because the playoff. Matthew Stafford. Matthew
Stafford is the MVP of the league right now. He's
taking it away. I don't think there's another person close
to him at this plane as well as he is
right now. So credit the Rams, credit Stafford, credit Sean mcvray.
They're hot and they're rolling.
Speaker 7 (17:17):
It's crazy, Willy because five past five weeks, this is
Matt Stafford's touchdowns. Five against Jaggs, four against the Saints,
four against San Fran, two against Seattle last week, and
three last night. It contented he continues to just impress
and be in that MVP category. And I said this
back in August fifth, I look back at this. If
you're going to run cover one against the Rams, store
(17:37):
it in the trash can. But the Bucks decided to
run cover one against the Rams last night, and they
got hurt twice with Davante Adams down there in the
goal line. Right when Matt Stafford saw that dB go
with that tight end and that little jet motion. You know,
they were in Cover one and he threw it to
DeVante Adams. The second touchdown, he saw that the safety
is in the middle of the field and threw it
to DeVante Adams. Tony Romo in that Chiefs first Coats game,
(17:59):
who was saying all day long, Patrick Mahomes has to
throw this ball outside the.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
Numbers, you know why.
Speaker 7 (18:04):
And Cover one, the middle of that defense is congested.
But when you have somebody like DeVante Adams that can
win those one to one matchups where you can just
throw the ball up there the way that Matt Stafford
does so eloquently and beautifully, and it just happened to
land in that guy's hands every single time, not to
mention one of the best to ever do it in
DeVante Adams. You get that type of result. So not
(18:25):
only is that connection to DeVante Adams extremely lethal, but
that defense for the LA Rams has for the past
two weeks shown that they too can be the reason
why they win the Super Bowl. And that's why I
think the LA Rams is going to there's gonna be
something to deal with.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
I hear a lot of chatter I see it online
and people I talk to football about you know there
aren't any really great teams this year, or the football
is bad, the primetime Degabeth. This is a great team, right,
this is maybe the great team. If you look over,
I'm talking to best team in the NFL. You look
over in the AFC, there's some teams with some really
good records. It's quarterbacks we don't know if we trust yet.
It's Drake May, It's BONICKX. There's some other ones in
(19:00):
the NFC. It's the same thing. The Bears have a
good record. This team not only has a great record.
Let's remind ourselves, guys. The two losses, the two Rams
losses this year. Think back to this season. They had
the blocked field goal against Philly. They were lining up
to kick the game winning field goal. They lose to
Philly in that way, and then they lost in overtime
to the Niners on a Thursday night. Thursday night games
are always weird. That's all that's keeping them for perfection.
(19:23):
In the meantime, we try to pick apart these teams
with good records. They haven't beaten anybody, no quality wins.
They've beaten Houston, Indie, Baltimore, Jacksonville, San franc Seattle, and Tampa.
All those teams matter. All those teams at one point
have mattered. Will matters still do matter? All I see
when I look at this this game yesterday was atrocious.
And I respect Tampa, but this was an atrocious game
(19:44):
that was never, never, ever in doubt. You just watched
this game, and the only question you ask is who's
going to beat this team in the NFC playoffs? Who's
going to do it? Is it Philly? I mean, they
got all kinds of problems right now. Is it Detroit?
I don't know where we are with Detroit. Is it Chicago?
Chicago seems to beat everybody, but I look at them
and I'm like, different weight class. This team looks like
(20:05):
a heavyweight. Everybody else looks like maybe in middleweight at
the best. And it's just that is our question about
the Rams. Will you lose the game in the playoffs,
because we know you're going to be there. It's probably
going to go through so far. It's just that it's
at a time when we're really starting to look at
style points. Who really has it? There's this team and
then not only everybody else in the NFC, everybody else
(20:25):
in the NFL. I think the gap between one and
two is as big as the gap between two and ten.
It's really that big of a gap.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
And it hasn't been an easy street for the Rams either.
They went to London for five minutes and beat the
Jaguars there, so it's not like they've just had all
these home games.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Travel has been fine. The Rams are built to last.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
Now.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
You cannot say the same luxury about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
They have been riddled with injury ian rapaport since the
start of this season, and it feels like it caught
up with them last night. Not only could Baker Mayfield
not find options offensively, he himself ended the game in
the second half with the non throwing arm in a sling.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
What's the latest with the Bucks quarterback?
Speaker 9 (21:01):
This is sposed to be the time when the Tampa
Bay Buccaneers were getting healthy. Chris Godwin was finally back
last night. Bucky Irvin slated to be back next week. Instead,
it's another potentially significant injury for Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Baker Mayfield.
Speaker 9 (21:15):
You mentioned it was on the sideline in a sling,
a left shoulder injury. He is believed to have suffered
a shoulder sprain. He's gonna have an MRI today to
determine the full extent of this injury. Certainly possible that
he could miss some time now. Baker Mayfield plays through
basically everything, played through a partially torn labrim on his
left side when he was with the Browns.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I believe that was his last year with the Browns,
so he has.
Speaker 9 (21:37):
Done it before. So as little time as he can miss,
as possible as what Baker will do, but EMRI today
that will tell this story. Teddy Bridgewater is the backup
for Tampa Bay.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
All eyes are on that situation. All eyes of course,
we're on the Las Vegas Raiders. Last night.
Speaker 9 (21:54):
Their offense has been a massive, massive disaster this whole year.
It's not just the play of Gino Smith, basically their
entire offense. Pete Carroll took action last night firing Chip
Kelly after another brutal, brutal loss, this time to the
Cleveland Browns. Gino Smith o sack ten times and Pete
Carroll said postgame, seemed to be pretty frustrated, pretty pretty
(22:15):
fed up. Our quarterback was under durest.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
The entire time.
Speaker 9 (22:18):
So Chip Kelly, the NFL's highest paid coordinator, out the
second coordinator that Pete Carroll has fired, also fired a special.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Teams coach, Tom McMahon.
Speaker 9 (22:26):
And for the Patriots, they had another potential significant situation,
this time Will Campbell, their left tackle, their first round pick,
one of their best players, is believed to have suffered
an mcl spring in his knee. Mike were Able just
went on local radio and said he believes that Will
Campbell's going to miss more than one or two games.
My understanding is he is an injured reserve candidate. He's
(22:49):
going to have an MRI today. More information coming the hope.
The hope is that this is something that he can
return for later in the season, potentially for the playoffs.
But all that information is not here yet, so we'll
be waiting throughout the day.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Rap Sheet, Thanks pat sally the win against the Bengals yesterday,
but it did not come without some major injury, that
just being one of them for the Patriots. We'll keep
an eye on that until then. We are headed squarely
for Thursday football and it's the special kind, the John
Madden Thanksgiving celebration.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Line them up, knock them down. It's three games.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
Packers Lions lead your day at one pm Eastern on Fox.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Then Chiefs Cowboys.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
That is a doozy for CBS as your second game
of the day four to thirty pm Eastern Just I
don't know, reset your dinner time. A lot of people
eat at four thirty on Thursdays.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Eat it a different time.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Leave that game on, and then Bengals Ravens eight to
twenty pm on NBC with the Chris Collinsworth Slide. Congrats
to Palmsworth last night. What a what a mark he's
made broadcasting so many games. Spantai is a Thanksgiving triple
header on the twenty seven, but we still have the
rest of our show today.
Speaker 7 (23:51):
You know, if you ball out on Thanksgiving, one of
the best traditions.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
As you get a tur duck in Turkey lift. It
was last night that man right there would have got
a turk duck in.
Speaker 7 (23:58):
In his performance against their win against the Giants, what
a win by Jamier gives on the line for goal
over and more in his week twelve performance, Kyle, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Gibbs is unfair, I mean unbelievable, Like how fast he is.
There's a way they're catching him. Plus all right, Chiefs
Colts huge steaks in Arrowhead. You think the Chiefs are
gonna just lie down and go to sleep. I'm so fast,
my friend. We gotta talk all about this game. What
does it mean for Kansas City? What does it mean
for Indianapolis too? Who lost? Coming off to buy all
(24:29):
the games, all.
Speaker 10 (24:30):
The touchdowns, all the pie. It's Thanksgiving. We get in here,
good mon, moll.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
All right, here we go, Colts Chiefs really looking forward
to this. When Patrick Mahomes has never lost three regular
season games in a row in his entire career, that
would be the case series. Down twenty to nine at home,
Kareem hunt this guy, if you got any carries? He
had just had thirty carries, Like it's nineteen ninety four
or something. I don't do that anymore. He carries? Who
is he? Ricky Williams? What are we doing? All right?
(25:07):
On a third and ten, Daniel Jones, still with the lead,
tries to move the chains. Mechanic clutch tackle there and
Michael Pittman Jr. So the Chiefs, you know the story.
They don't win close games. They haven't this year. Down
a fourth and three, Mahomes do something, Yes, Rashee Rice,
great throw and catch. He's just trying to house this thing.
But he goes down. Tick tick tick tick tick tick
tick tick. This is really dramatic here, all right, under
(25:30):
thirty seconds to play, third and goal. Chiefs trying to
rip the Colts hard out give the Colts. They got
a lot of heart, great goal line stand mall gets sacked.
But wait a second, now, fourth and goal, they got
a kick right, yes, twenty to twenty. Guess what we're
doing going overtime? Overtime. Colts win the toss to give
us the ball third and one at their own forty two,
and Jonathan Taylor is stuck, stuck by Drew tranquil and
(25:53):
threadibile play. I don't right. It was so big.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
Chris Jones showed up, that whole defensive line stood up strong.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Taylor had his second fewest yards this season, only fifty eighth.
The Chiefs defense was great. They don't allow hundred yard rushers,
but twenty to twenty on a third and seve Oh
my gosh, Xavier were the great catch thirty one yards.
My homes finished throwing forty six passes a lot of
yards and not throw a touchdown. And then, as they
so often have, these Chiefs games end with a Harrison
Butker field goal it is over the Colts. We have
(26:20):
not seen him in a couple of weeks. They were
on a bye. They come back and lose a game
that they were winning by double digits, and Andy Reid
just stays alive. They are the Michael Myers. You think
they're down and they get up there now six and five.
They're not in the playoffs yet, but to go to
five and six, I think we would have to let
them go. Here we go two of the biggest, most
celebrate athletes on the planet, the tight end and the
(26:43):
quarterback in Kannessee.
Speaker 8 (26:45):
It's kind of the urgency thing. I mean, obviously you
want to be urgent, but it was do or die
type thing where you had to make something happen, and
guys may plays happen throughout the entire team. Wasn't one person,
it was everybody. Everybody made plays and the biggest moments
and we found a way to win.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Oh man, you just believe, you just believe every snap. No,
it's the best man. He's our fairlest leader. Man.
Speaker 6 (27:06):
That guy's the most competitive human being I know, and
we love him for how he leads this team both
on the field and practice throughout the week.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
And right now, Man, he's leading us into victory. Man,
it's the best.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Fully, the closest of friends can mock one of the
greatest quarterbacks ever and get away with the Travis Kelsey
well done, stuck the landing on it. But he's trying
to evaluate what's going on with the Chiefs. When you
have Mahomes under center, Willie, you're always going to be
able to gut it out.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
But here's the thing. Can the Chiefs gut it out
down the stretch? They are lurking. They are six and five.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
They match the Texans and the Steelers in the record books.
This is the AFC playoff pixture. They still have a
couple of teams in their division to beat. But Willie,
when you see the quarterback, the Mahomes era, everything that's
been going on with Kansas City, who's the quarterback the
difference maker for you?
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Yesterday?
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Yeah, this was the Kansas City Chiefs, remembering who they are.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Defense was gritty, Harrison Bucker was awesome, fought field goals
in a game where winner, but he came down to
one man and now was Patrick Mahomes and his ability
to put on the cape. He was surgically good.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Man.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
You talk about managing chaos, and this is exactly what
he did in the second half, especially in the fourth
quarter and overtime.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Man, it's about winning on early downs. Yeah, they want
to be better.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
I think the one for six in the red zone
that can't happen, especially if you have hopes of going
back to the Super Bowl. But he came down to
Patrick Mahomes saying, enough is enough.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
We got a close games.
Speaker 4 (28:22):
They were oning five one score games and they're looking
at they're at home versus the Colts.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Who are money hot right now.
Speaker 4 (28:29):
Patrick Mahomes had to shoulder this team and he did
so methodically time after time, getting the ball into this
playmaker's hands, looking down the field, making players happen time
after time, and allowing this office to thrive through him.
So you talk about while Patrick Mahomes is who he
is to time MVP because he can manage chaos, he
can manage stress, and he takes the pressure off other
(28:51):
players and make it happen in crucial sit crucial situations.
It's all about winning a situational football.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
He's the best of the league at it. Yeah, wellie,
this has definitely been what the Chiefs have been able
to do.
Speaker 7 (29:01):
Right you have Patrick Mahomes laden games help put your
team in situation to win those games. But again, it
happens because the defense. It happens because Spags and in
the fourth quarter there are three three drives for nine
plays eleven total yards. They're down by eleven points and
that defense comes up huge. Jonathan Taylor in the fourth
quarter had one rush for negative two yards. Why is
(29:24):
Johnthan Taylor only running the ball for one time in
the fourth quarter, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
But when he did run the ball it was negative
two yards. And overtime two carries for a total of
three yards.
Speaker 7 (29:33):
For two quarters, fourth quarter and overtime he had three
rushes for one yard.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
That is dominant. So when you talk about the Chiefs
and is.
Speaker 7 (29:41):
This what we're used to seeing from the Chiefs, Yes,
this is what we're used to seeing. We're used to
seeing Spags in that defense carry that team throughout the season,
carry that team during games, and then late giving it
over to Patrick Mahomes and say here, do something with
what we just put on the plate for you and
make it happen. And so I really love what Spags
and that defense did late in the game because, to
(30:02):
be honest, all of that stuff that Patrick was able
to do, wouldn't be wouldn't be worth anything, Kyle if
that defense didn't give them the chance to do it.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
So shout out to SPEC's defense. Definitely the story of
the game. Defense the story of the last two years. Really,
it's we talk about it Mahomes and Kelsey and all
these great players. It's the defense is so fantastic and
they were incredible yesterday. I can't believe it's on Thursday.
It's chief said Cowboys. I mean, is two hundred million
people gonna watch that game? I am a so I
there's two in this room, four thirty in the afternoon
(30:32):
on the CBS. What a game. I just can't We're
going to talk about it all week. The Chiefs, you
knew they were going to win this game. Deep inside you,
even if you're a skeptic, even if you love the Colts,
maybe even if you're on the Colts, I knew the
Chiefs are going to win this game. They weren't going
to go, oh, well, five and six at home we
lost to the Colts. Like, it's not going to end
(30:53):
that way this They may lose later in the season
and we'll get into that. They got a lot of
work to do still, and they may lose in the
wild card round. They weren't going to lose. To go
to five and six at home in front of arrowheads
of the Colt. It just wasn't going to happen. It doesn't.
They had to run cream Hunt thirty times. Mahomes threw
a ton of passes, they ran a ton of plays.
They were losing. It was ugly. It's not pretty. This
highlight that we just did. I feel like we just
(31:15):
pulled it from last year's team, the team that won
the AFC. Ugly. The highlights aren't these great, pleasing, school
looking plays. I don't see Jamir Gibbs or George Pickens.
There's not really a ton of that. But sure enough
they do this thing where Mahomes scrambles and outcomes Harrison
Bucker and the Chiefs win, and you cut to Andy
Reid walking on. This is where they live, this is
what they do. They got a lot of problems and
(31:37):
the schedule remaining like they got to go. I think
four and two the rest of the way. I think
four and two in the last six games will get
them to ten and seven and they get a wild card.
All right, but you're seeing it there Dallas, Houston, the Chargers, Titans,
never mind none. But then after that you got Denver again. JUNI,
you have four wins out of six, because I think
three wins out of six, I don't think they get in.
(31:59):
I want the Chiefs in. Whether you know it or not.
You want the Chiefs in. They should be in to
be properly dealt with if somebody beats them out. I
don't want the AFC Playoffs without the Homes. I want
them in. And they got to go four and two togein.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
And I think we know this week is all about Turkey,
but this game and the chief season is plays into
something that Kyle talks about all the time, which is steaks.
And now every weekend we got it right. Every weekend
it matters and that's why.
Speaker 3 (32:25):
It's compelling television.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
And it begins for all of us and apparently two
hundred million of our closest friends on Thursday that midday
game on CBS back on GMFB, Jags polts, this thing
mattered for the AFC. Jags did their best, honestly to
cough this game up, and they just couldn't get it done.
Jagg's Cardinals thank you so much. A different team with
the Sea. Look at Trevor Lawrence slinging it to Parker
Washington in the.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Back of the end zone.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Okay, little Parker Washington and Saley nine yard TD Jaggs
would retake the lead there, but.
Speaker 3 (32:52):
The Cardinals they come fighting back. Now we're in overtime.
Speaker 2 (32:55):
Brisset Jakobe Brissette with the star for the at QB.
Because Kyler Murray's on IR can't get this thing completed.
Fourth and four, they try to drop it in Xavier
Weaver double teams, Jaguars win it. They escape twenty seven
to twenty four.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
Liam Cone with another epic locker room celebration.
Speaker 7 (33:12):
Let's go to Tennessee Jamie Sam Darnold and the Seattle
Seahawks after a four interception game last wuit against the Rams.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
Can he bounce back? But we answered that emphatically.
Speaker 7 (33:20):
Throwing the ball to the number one receiver in the NFL,
Jackson Smith and jigbu I don't know what was more
impressive with that catch or the stiff arm throw down
for six points.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
Jackson Smith and Jigbua is just phenomenal. But then third
quarter would come. Okay, Seahawks are leading sixteen to three,
and it's the formula.
Speaker 7 (33:37):
Throw the ball to that man, Jackson, Smith and Jigbu
again thirteen yards strike for another touchdown. Seattle Seahawks will
win thirty to twenty four. Smith and Jiggle will break
dk Metcals single season franchise wreck for it ony three
hundred and.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Three yards in twenty twenty. He just broke that and
it's still going. I love it.
Speaker 2 (33:55):
It's like September and he already did it. Jamiir Gibbs,
incredible day. I don't even have to tell you how
he did it. But who was the last running back
to pull off a game that he hadry. We're just
going to join the show with a trivia question that
always tries to stump us, but I heard we get
a little bit of a leg up today because we
always look at her with such a quizzical look on
her face, like Sherry, what we're gonna have the answer?
I promised jami Or Gibbs looking him up.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Good morning football.
Speaker 11 (34:31):
Well, the Lion's holding off the Giants yesterday thirty four
to twenty seven in overtime. This turning into the Jamir
Gibbs game on the ground, he had fifteen carries for
two hundred and nineteen yards two touchdowns, and if that
just wasn't enough, he getted eleven catches for forty five yards.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
And a touchdown.
Speaker 11 (34:49):
Starting your little Monday morning Matt Donna, were you two
hundred and nineteen yards on the ground eleven catches that
all equaled three touchdowns?
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Forgives?
Speaker 11 (34:58):
So this got us thinking little Monday morning trivia. Also,
when was the last time someone had over two hundred
yards rushing in at least ten catches this time? Like
you mentioned that, Jamie, we're going to give you options
a Alvin Kamara, B Marshall falk See, Edward James or
d Ladinian Tomlinson.
Speaker 3 (35:18):
Does anybody want? I mean r Jamie, you go first.
Speaker 2 (35:21):
Just the names on the list would imply how challenging
this is. Yeah, I kind of want to see a
LaDainian Tomlins in a highlight to start my day, so
I'll go ELT. I have no other logic besides, I
want to see the NFL films full well.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
My mind is either LT or it's Alvin Camaro. Hm.
I'm agree with you, Jamie. I think LT. I mean,
I guess him all the time on the show. So
what on lt who you guys got Willie Billy, all right,
we're gonna do Willie and I usually have the same answer.
So we're going, we're gonna we're gonna do is. We're
gonna say one two three and then say our answer
and suit we say, all right, so one two three,
(35:56):
Marshall falk oh ed in, Marshall faulk Okay, okay. So
we got a couple of different answers.
Speaker 10 (36:02):
We go.
Speaker 11 (36:02):
This one is a little bit of a question because
the answer is La Dani and Tomlin said.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
You guys did get back. But he is not just
the last one to do it.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
He's the only this one matter. In Week thirteen of
the two thousand and two seasons.
Speaker 11 (36:18):
To get the Broncos nice stret work, guys, Elti had
two hundred and twenty rushing yards and three touchdowns thirty
seven carries to go along with eleven catches for fifty
one yards the chargers thirty twenty seven overtime win.
Speaker 3 (36:33):
You always need overtime to do it.
Speaker 11 (36:35):
Absolutely, you wanted to see those Elti highlights you.
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Have with that beautiful orchestral highlights.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
I love a multiple choice, you know what I mean,
you know what, I'm kidding up by elimination. You know, man, Si,
we're not playing in the game. You don't have to
warm up when we do rewind that. Man, Remember you're like.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
Week twelve edition to rewind that. Really you get to
go first. Well, here he goes cracking the neck. Willy,
what do you got for this play?
Speaker 1 (37:03):
Man?
Speaker 4 (37:03):
We got to take it to Philly versus the Dallas Cowboys.
Davonte Smith, it must be the shoes. I haven't seen
a catch like this in a long time. You talk
about spitty. He tapped the matrix button on this bag,
lips on his head. Listen, I don't know how you
felt after the game, but if I did this, I'll
probably be in a wheelchair. This guy looked amazing. This
is the hell of it.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
Catch the sideline jumped up. Talk about the concentration, the
body control. It must be the shoes.
Speaker 4 (37:29):
Looking at right, that's a man cave photo, folks, it's
something you put in your man came to show your
grand kids and your kids daddy.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
Was hit ab At what point is life?
Speaker 3 (37:38):
That's perfect? Damon, It's a very well done.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
Everybody is parents on the show and also watching today
everybody closed your eyes. Remember when you were teaching your
kids how to ride their bike. He took off the
training wheels, and you send them down even just the lowest,
the slightest of hills for the first time, and they
go careening towards a mailbox and you're like, oh.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
My god, avoid the mailbox.
Speaker 3 (37:59):
And then they do and they.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
Clear it, and you're like, my life just passed before
my eyes. That's how that Jake Bates kicked went for
the Detroit Lions yesterday.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
Did you guys see this thing let's go. Do you realize? Okay,
that looked like it was in the whole way.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
But when you watch this low end zone camera angle,
watch how far right this thing went before it came
back in amazing.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
Oh my gosh, kid.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
The mailbox will always win.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
The upright will always win. But if you take baits,
you took that.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
Thing in on your career long fifty nine yard can't
what coach is like?
Speaker 1 (38:33):
Its?
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Seriously, did it have to be that close? Why are
my armpit sweatings?
Speaker 1 (38:38):
Magnet was pulling that bull to it up for it?
So I love that.
Speaker 7 (38:40):
I'm gonna say the same game, Jamie, because my rewind
that moment came when Jamis Winston did.
Speaker 1 (38:45):
You see that? Like Gunner rolls out and I'm like,
and this whole video, I'm like, no, don't do it,
don't do it. You just run it. No, no, no,
don't do it, and definitely don't throw it to this guy.
And then Jamis come catches the ball, tell us, Derek Barnes,
get off me, Derek spins get this whole entire thing
is rewind that, rewind the past, rewind the player, Rewind Jamis.
Speaker 7 (39:05):
Guys, I have never cheered so loud and so hard
for one guy to get to win in my life
than trying to get Jameis Winston get a win for
the New York Giants.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
I thought this was phenomenal by Jameis Winston. Just the effort,
the charisma, the finger row at the end.
Speaker 7 (39:18):
I love you, James, Oh, get them, get them, get
everything about Jamos.
Speaker 1 (39:22):
I just love Rewind that dude. That's my rewind that moment.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
Jamiebe personality and he's so fun.
Speaker 1 (39:28):
Guys, it's easy to forget that Jamis is a crazy athlete,
like unbelievable athlete, college baseball pitcher. Heisman won over number
one of I mean he is an amazingly talented guy
that we just get lost because the content is so fun.
This cannot get lost. Roll the footage of Elijah Clark,
all the players on the field watch thirty eight. Boom,
(39:49):
get up, boom, get up, get up, get downfield, find
the ball there it is. Locate the ball, closed in,
throw your shoulders back, bumble, turnover, Elijah Clark. That is
the biggest play of the game for America's team. This
is an undrafted dude, a rookie out of Syracuse who
got cut in the preseason, was on the practice squad,
(40:12):
activated to the active rosters, now on special teams. In
this giant Jerry Jones machine, if Dak Prescott and George
Pickens and Ceedee Lamb and all these amazing players, undrafted,
Elijah Clark out of Syracuse makes the play of the
day against the arch rival. Awesome, awesome, awesome play, effort, determination,
fight physics, fight talent, get yourself some gatorade. Elijah Clark.
(40:34):
Number thirty eight. What a number. If a dude were
a number thirty eight, you can best believe he's probably
an undrafted guy. But Elijah Clark, you made that look
good and I absolutely love. I'm gonna show that play
to my son. Okay.
Speaker 7 (40:44):
So for anybody that's never been in that situation where
they get they get hit that way.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
And they're on the ground.
Speaker 7 (40:50):
You guys have those dreams where you're trying to hit
somebody and it's like forever for your arm to come across.
Speaker 1 (40:54):
It's like it's is taking fornever.
Speaker 7 (40:56):
Whenever you get hit on you butt like that, the
come up is that's the longest point five seconds of
your life.
Speaker 1 (41:03):
You don't know where the the freaking defender is going
to finish you. He's gonna lie on top of you.
So Elijah Clark, the fact that he.
Speaker 7 (41:09):
Gets hit like this still gets up, he gets hit again,
keeps his balance and finishes the play the way that he.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
Did, Guys, is this is just another level of effort
will power. Oh I love it for the count and
then again run it again.
Speaker 3 (41:23):
I love too long.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
Snappers coming down with Clark, and it looks like at
one point someone's got their controls on a video game remote.
And if you watch two of them as they come
down and they're pursuing the ball, they change direction perfectly
at the exact same time. Watch as near all the
other way and that perfect left pursue ball, tackle ball,
get on ball.
Speaker 3 (41:44):
That was perfection.
Speaker 1 (41:45):
Well done, good football,
