Davis mistake.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
I know this is exactly what you're not supposed to do,
but I did it anyway, So call me an ass clown.
I do usually behind my back and in your face. Thanks.
We're going to get some wings and drinks after the show.
We'll take Danny g and I with Sam add on
the town. Romance them a little bit. Watch them chiefs Ravens.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Can enjoy those saucy nugs.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
So I did the dumb thing, which is I didn't
eat all day because I'm like, oh, I'll just pick
out tonight. And don't they say that's what you're not
supposed to do. Like on Thanksgiving they always say.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Eat a little bit throughout the day. That way you
don't like get sick. They always say, fill your belly
with the healthy stuff. Yeah, so that you're not over
indulging on the boneless wings. I had the question of
the day before we get to the Damn Buyer Spectacular.
And what what I mean by that is something that
Dan Buyer started here at Fox Sports Radio years ago.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
It's a prediction show. He was on Shark Tank for this.
That's all the rage.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Yeah, yeah, I heard mister Wonderful gave him eight million dollars,
but he wanted all these royalties.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
So Dan was like, no, I just fell through. The
big bet for tonight is not Chiefs minus three? Do
they cover? It's not any prop bet. Hey, Derek hen
we're gonna start out strong tonight's prop bet. And Danny,
I want to know what you think. I don't want
to put you on the spot, but the old under
in the game tonight is forty six and a half wings.
(04:04):
I'm glad you said that. Do you think you me,
Cavino and Iowa Sam will eat more wings than points
scored in the game. Oh, I already had a big
fat salad, just letting you know I only had toast
for breakfast. Yeah, I knew, I just.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Like twelve wings at the least right there, if we
do twelve each we hit the over.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Yeah. Yeah, man, if.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I have any willpower, I'm saying no, my mad I
feel like we can each knock that thirteen. I'm not
trying to be the party pooper, but this is where
the slippery slope open winter begins. Well, hold on, this
is where you start fitting into that extra large hoodie
that you have for football season. This is where it
all goes downhill. You gotta be careful. I'm just throwing
(04:50):
that out there. It's it's still one hundred degrees in LA.
You can't tuck away your fitted T shirts yet. Dude,
it's one hundred and fifteen degrees today. I know you're
telling me summer's over.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
So so much for that. Let me pumpkin spice latte
rich exactly.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Let me be sports nerdy for you for a second.
Last year, Ravens scored their season low against the Chiefs
in the playoffs ten points. So as far as the
over under tonight, did Derek Henry make a difference?
Speaker 2 (05:15):
What's doing tonight? I'm telling you that hot we got
two good defenses. Yeah, going at it. I think the
hot met is us with the wings in the over.
Danny I might go wild tonight.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Let's see, Iowa Sam, he's got a real tight T
shirt on. If he does over twelve, you know how
he's gonna look at a T shirt.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
He's gonna be wearing a belly shirt by the end
of the night. Cheese Kurds too.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
He's gonna be like he's wearing an Ezekiel Elliott, Jersey,
Dann Byer.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
You're invited as well. I just figure you get out
of here and you don't want to spend any more
time than you need to with us.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
You know, it's pretty amazing because I heard the rumblings
last night and I.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Asked my wife, Iowa Sam's belly raight?
Speaker 4 (05:53):
I asked my wife. I said, the guys haven't invited
me yet, but they may go out for wings. Would
it be okay if I went and so and so?
She said yes, She said absolutely, yes, so, but since
you guys didn't invite me and it was only a foursome,
I'm not gonna go.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Yeah damn, but hold on, hold on. And I was like, yeah, Megan,
room for the wings tonight, like letting it in.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
As I walked past them, He's like, yeah, I can't
wait the dollars saucy wings, Dan, I don't know how
many I'm gonna have.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
We talked about it earlier.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
In my face, I'm really becoming more of a rich guy,
I think because of this.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
So I didn't want to say what Rich was about
to say. But you just make the assumption that you're
busy and you got a little kid at home, and
you're just gonna go even do your thing.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Rich.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
I even gave him the you know, it's buy one,
get one free Thursdays, like a hints like, hey.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
There could be more along the way.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Cove's like, Ronald, you know, is his eating and sold
is the.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
I gotta say everything he's saying is true? Yeah that is?
Oh man, he's not.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
But then I was like hearing you guys talk about
the over unders and I'm like, well, if I show up,
we're gonna crush the over So then I may just
shut up.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
No no, no, no, not say anything. Picture wife dinners on us,
Come on, come on, come on listen, guys.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
I was gonna save this for off air, but I
can do the breaking news now.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Iowa.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Sam just informed me he's not going to be able
to make it no way, So so this over under
rich only works if Dan Bayer joins us.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Now, Covino is gonna invite you. Dan.
Speaker 5 (07:29):
You have to you have to, he stead, Okay, you
gotta come on, my behalf, you have to be there today.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
We'd be honored. Yeah, we'd be honored. It'd be great.
My over under was so wings over under tonight. Hey
we got Mahomes, we got Lamar Jackson. It's going to
be a pretty exciting game. I think the between the
four of us, the uh the other. I don't think
there's a prop bed for this. But I asked Cavino,
(07:55):
do you think the minute Carrie Underwood starts singing the
NBC NFL kickoff song, do you think there's b roll
of Taylor Swift within ten seconds? Unless Carrie Underwood had
some sort of little clause in her contract that said
I don't want to be interrupted by Taylors.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
I don't think it's another hot blode. No, I'm gonna
say no.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I'm saying yeah, unless, of course, she put her little
Carrie Underwood foot down and say, hey, this is.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Sort of my moment. Yeah. I mean, we pointed out
the other day on Midweek Major that that NFL promo
video had what five minutes five video clips of Taylor
Swift in a.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
One minute, month second clip. Yeah, that says to me
they're from leaning into it like at all. So I
would say it's possible, unless, of course, her management, her
team said, look, don't even think about it.
Speaker 3 (08:46):
They put a two minute clause in we need two
minutes of separation between swift Y and I.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Think that's fair and care.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
If I were carry Underwood, I wouldn't want her button
into my moment right there. But I think yes, if
they didn't say anything about it, So I think it's
Carry Underwood. You know, she makes a million dollars a
week doing that Sunday Night football theme for NBCA. She's
the new judge on American Idol, makes what twenty something
million dollars on top of that, plus her music stuff
(09:12):
and Cavino. This is the rock guy he loves Divorced
Dad Rock of the two thousands.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
Yeah, I'm the angry divorced Dad Rock ambassador.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
In fact, she h Carry Underwood now has a song
she redid with Limp Biscuit Right, leave a Light on.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Yeah, it's I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Yeah, Jacoby Shaddocks, not even Jacoby Shaddocks and Papa Roach
along with Carrie Underwood have a new song.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Check it out. It's really great.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Now speaking of Dan Byer, who's completely invited.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Absolutely.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Sometimes you just assume right that someone's not down, or
they're busy or whatever. But Dan Bayer is the inventor
of something that's been a tradition for many years before us,
long before Cavino and Rich. So we turn it over
to Dan Byer to explain.
Speaker 4 (09:57):
Guys, a lot of people make predictions prior to the year,
and sometimes they just don't stick with them. You remember
what somebody said in week one of the season, and
then their answer changes or they want to change the pick.
And I felt this was a good way for accountability.
But also let's expand it. Let's let's talk about your
wealth of NFL knowledge. If you don't get the two
(10:19):
picks right for the AFC and NFC represented the Super Bowl,
why not look for a couple of other different places,
Like let's pick the MVP right, Hey, let's who do
you think is going to be the worst team in
the National Football League. Every year when I would type
up my predictions, I would pick award winners, MVP coach
of the year, and then I would say, who do
I think are going to be the three worst teams?
(10:41):
And then maybe your favorite prediction doesn't fit any of
the categories of Super Bowl or everyp of worst teams. Yeah,
if you want to go out on a limb, that's
our out on a limb category. Something that you feel
is just going to happen this year that nobody's talking about.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Throw that out. Just any random prediction that you feel strong.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Yeah, like you like, you know, Chiefs winning the Super
bowls not out on a limb, right, but Denver winning
the Super Bowl, shure would be. So maybe you want
to put that or Denver just to the AFC Championship
Game but they lose, you know, like there's no spot
for that.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
That's what out on a limb is for dB.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Just for the sake of Fox Sports Radio history. You know,
we've been here for what three years now, it's total
between weekends and full time. Yeah, what year around did
you start this prediction sheet?
Speaker 4 (11:23):
It's probably I would say probably around like twenty ten
around that time.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Yeah, and everybody, for the record, everybody at Fox Sports
Radio fills it out. So it's kind of cool to
see who's right. Who's wrong. You know, it's it's accountability,
really is what it is. Do you want to start
We'll do a couple categories. Now, yeah, breather, We'll come
back do some other categories.
Speaker 3 (11:46):
All right, So we'll start with Dan Bayer. Let's start
with the AFC champs and the NFC champs.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Bier.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Guys, this is a phrase that I was able to
unleash on my Sunday show that I hope that it
that it takes. It takes root Motown versus Snowtown. Oh, yes,
I like that. This is what we've got for Super
Bowl fifty nine. The Lions representing the NFC, the Bills
(12:14):
representing the AFC. Nice with the Detroit Lions lifting Vince
Lombardi's trophy. The Lions are your super Bowl champs, adding
more misery to the city of Buffalo.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
All right, Covino, So now your AFC champ, NFC champ,
and your Super Bowl winner.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
My AFC champ. You're gonna see him tonight. It's gonna
be the Ravens.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Oh, you're so raven, so raven.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
I just think we're gonna see some good changes with
the team you already mentioned, Henry Rich. I think Jackson's
gonna come out. He's got a chip on his shoulder.
He wants to beat Mahomes. I think this is the
year they do it. So those are the AFC champs.
All right, you're gonna like to hear this, Rich, Your
NFC champs are the forty nine ers. So I don't
really think there's much competition for your forty nine ers.
(13:01):
I know you don't want to say it, Yeah, you know,
but it seems pretty obvious.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
And again that little window we talk about, little window.
You said last year they got to do it this year.
Now this year they got to do it this year. No,
they have to do it this year. They have to.
Speaker 2 (13:14):
They made all the necessary signings last minute. Forty nine ers, NFC,
You're Super Bowl champions? Are your San Francisco forty See.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
I love hearing that, but I also.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
Especially with all a noise surrounding your team, Rich, that's
cowhard would say.
Speaker 1 (13:34):
I love what I love what I said, but I
hate it because I have the same exact pick, so the.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Same exact I filled it out before you, So I'm
not copying your answer sheet.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
So you're ravens Oh yeah, yeah, so you're you're also Ravens, Niners, Niners.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
I would say I did this yesterday. I did yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
And when I say I said, I thought about it,
hold on, hold on. I thought I was gonna change it.
But I was like, you know, you gotta stick with
your first instincts, right, That's what they always say. Stick
with your first pick. Stick them with my first pick. However, Rich,
even though we agree here and when we agree is fact. Yeah,
we still have add on a limb and worst team
in MVP.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Yeah, of course. But I think what's interesting. I like
this because we have a phrase here in Covino on Rich,
because we argue and disagree on most things, but when
we agree, it's fact, which may mean the Niners finally
get to the promised land. Danny g E're up or
you're both delusional?
Speaker 3 (14:29):
All right, Spotty AFC champ, NFC champ and your Super
Bowl winner?
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (14:34):
I hate to say it, then don't I'm not going
to all right. I think it's going to be the Chiefs.
I think they're I think they're coming back. They have to.
I feel like there's the hype is going to kind
of keep going. Who they playing, who they're playing in
the Super Bowl? Actually I'm with dB. I think I
think Lions. Okay, I think it's gonna be chief lines.
And I do think Lions may pull it out this year.
(14:56):
I feel like they had so much energy last year
heading into the playoff, so much excitement.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
I think they're going to try and recapture that. Eminem
will be pleased with your pick. I don't know. We'll see,
all right. So you're saying Chiefs Lions line line? Wow?
Dan Byer, what says? What says? I was Sam?
Speaker 5 (15:10):
You think I was?
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Sam? What do you got? Man? This is going to
be a tough one. Wait, but you you got your
for me? No? He was wondering what I thought? Yeah,
he's doing the Newlyweds game again? Now what do you got?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
So?
Speaker 5 (15:25):
I don't have a catchy rhyme like Dan does. And
I thought I was being original and quirky here with
my picks. But I am also taking the Bills to
win the AFC and the Lions to win the NFC.
And I'm going to take the Bills as the Super
Bowl champs. Bill, So you're going same as dB, but
a different Super Bowl champion.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Going to snow down Bills. Wow?
Speaker 3 (15:47):
Okay, Snowtown Danny round it out, bro. Yeah, so I'll
uh follow Buyer's rhyme, but mine's different. Ho down versus
motown down coaching. Texans are going to win the AFC
uh and the Lions I think will win the NFC.
They were so close last season. Yeah, but I have
(16:11):
the Texans hoisting the Vince Lombardi trope.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
Wow.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
I have the Texans go into the Promised Land and
winning the whole in Chilada.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Here's the thing. I love the Lions pick. I love
the Texans pick.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
I love all the picks, right, But sometimes it's so obvious,
you know, sometimes you overthink it and the answer is
right there. And I know what rich and I said,
seems to be sort of an obvious pick, but well,
it's so likely to let me tell you, I my
Niners is a total homer pick. And I just realized
their windows closing. I'm a Niners fan and they don't
(16:45):
do it now. It's it's you know, what are you
going to? But think about how the season works, Rich, Right,
there's all these teams that are in the mix, d'ur
in the mix, and then it always ends up with
the same four that you would have predicted early on Anyway,
my backup one.
Speaker 1 (16:55):
Would have been I'm curious to see if Joe Burrow
and the Bengals delivered, because I think that that was
my I was gonna write Bengals, and I'm like, now
I think I think Lamar finally text it takes the
next step. So so I'll stick with Ravens. All right.
Speaker 3 (17:07):
When we come back, we'll fill out out on a
limb worst team and MVP.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Oh, you're gonna you're gonna love some of my picks.

(19:22):
new lead singer, maybe all the above, but an announcement today.
Also some pretty big news. NFL starts today. Yeah, that
whole thing. And that's what we're talking about right now.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Foosball.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Danny G's on the phones at eighty seven seven ninety
nine on Fox. Dan Byer, the inventor of the NFL
prediction sheet, is also hanging out with us. We're going
over the AFC, NFC winners, super Bowl champions. We already
did those, so now I think it's the fun part.
Add on a limb and worst team in MVP. Yeah,
where do you want to pick up?
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Denny?
Speaker 3 (19:55):
All right, Roddio, we'll start back with buyer again. This
is for out on a limb, worst two team and MVP.
All right, do you want me to pick one of
those three? Okay, out on a limb?
Speaker 4 (20:07):
This is you know, I made through my division rankings
and I like the Jets to win the AFC East.
But I don't think that's out on a limb. Uh
So I jumped over to the to the NFC. There's
some commanders, love that you love. I have hope in
my Seahawks, and I think the Cardinals are going to
be better, but I don't think the Dallas Cowboys will
(20:28):
be making the playoffs. I actually have my Seahawks coming
in as the seventh seed in the NFC and the Cowboys,
not only do they not win the NFC East, they
missed the playoffs entirely this year.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
That's it out on a limb.
Speaker 7 (20:40):
Yeah, just a little bit.
Speaker 3 (20:42):
Jerry might mean a change of coach too.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Okay, so no Cowboys? How about damn Cowboys?
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Now?
Speaker 1 (20:48):
Not really?
Speaker 2 (20:48):
All right, I don't have the patience today, Covino, You're
out on a limb. It almost goes along with dB
and what he was saying. I just think everybody's so
high on the Jets and I don't see it at
all because we're from New York. Every season it felt
like people are always high in the Jets or had
(21:10):
these hopes and the Jets are gonna jet as they say,
I don't think they make the playoffs. I think there's
so many questions marks there. I think you're really putting
a lot on Aaron Rodgers. I don't know what he's
got after this injury to think that they're going to
make the playoffs. I know that everyone has them touted
really high. USA today has everybody has them in the playoffs,
and I'm like, really, the Jets, I'm not buying it.
So I think they don't make the playoffs. That was
(21:31):
my add on a limb, No j Ets. Jets, Yes,
based on the hype because everybody's saying.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
It, and I'm like, really, all right, So would go
as far to say the Jets will finish under five hundred.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
I think they'd have to be right around five hundred,
if not below five hundred. Yeah, they got to go
out on a limb, that's the thing. Yeah, I'm out
on a limb. They're not making the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
They have the ninth shortest odds of winning the Super
Bowl the Jets, and he says they're not even going
to make the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
There you go, Yeah, okay, Rich my add on a limb,
dB insinuated, I'm high most nights now. I'm high on
the Washington Commanders. The more and more I look into it, dB,
I'm feeling that we're so in this mindset of like, well,
it's Cowboys or Eagles and the you know, Commander's in
the giant stink. Not so fast, buddies, I think my
(22:21):
out on a limb, Commander's a lock for the playoffs.
Wo Commanders, Oh season the name of the game?
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Right, yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:29):
Commanders in all right, Spotty.
Speaker 6 (22:34):
This is going to sound crazy, and it's also a
bit of a hedge of my bet based on who
I chose for AFC and the Super Bowl. We can
just wait say like anything, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay.
I think because we were talking earlier about how Taylor
Swift is going to be all over the place, going
to be focusing on her a lot, I think this
is crazy. Travis Kelcey is going to get injured and
(22:58):
be out half the season, which is totally going to
bring down the mood because I feel like you're just
gonna pan to the box.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
You're gonna see No, No, you're gonna see them in
the box with her when he's injured. No, I think
they just be sitting there watching the game together. And
I think it's gonna be misery. So I think it's
going to be a Travis Kelsey injury for half the season.
Speaker 1 (23:18):
That's the equivalent of a death pool. I know.
Speaker 7 (23:20):
That's why I hate.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
I hate to put it. He's not wishing it, saying
he thinks it could happen. Because of the hype and
attention over that relationship. I think.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
I think this will skew the dynamic of the entire season.
I think it's fair. And here's why the NFL is
leaning into this so blatantly. Yes, so it's fair to speculate.
And I think he's so distracted now that the podcast
he's acting. It's gonna be a happy Gilmore too. Rumors
about a fixed yeah, rumors about that leaked document. I
(23:50):
think it's a possibility. I don't hate to wish injury,
but you never know.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
All Right, Samuel, you're up next.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
You said anything at the rule in like Sports Talk
ready on TV, like don't wish injuries that wasn't. It
was just it was out on a limb. It wasn't
a Wishton didn't say which.
Speaker 5 (24:04):
Limb I was, Sam, I'm going to say my out
on a limb prediction is the Pittsburgh Steelers make it
to the AFC title Game with Russell Wilson and it
snaps a long playoff win drought for.
Speaker 1 (24:21):
Coach. Uh why am I drinking?
Speaker 5 (24:23):
Mike tom Mike Tomas, who knows? With Russell Wilson, A
lot of people think he's washed. He very very well, maybe,
but who knows. Maybe it works. I mean they they
had some success with Kenny Pickett, So give me the
Steelers to make it to the AFC Championship.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
So you're saying a wildcard playoff team got an upgraded
quarterback and made some moves, so you don't see why
why not?
Speaker 5 (24:43):
I mean, if they're off, it's just kind of like
the Iowhawkeys. If their offense is even like remotely dependable, crazy, it's.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
Out on a limb, right expect.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
But if Tomlin's known for being a winning coach, which
he absolutely and any factor in a guy who has
the here at least the resume to win, maybe it
could work. But Russell Wilson's resume is equivalent to being like,
I used.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
To work at IBM. I got I don't know. I
mean we've seen great personal computers.
Speaker 4 (25:14):
I don't know of anybody that's speaking of the Steelers
to do anything this year.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Yeah, that's a good sense of that.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
The sentiment mostly is like, oh, there goes the over
five hundred streak for Tomlin. Yeah, two quarterbacks equals zero? Yeah,
all right, Dana, Danny j what you got? All right?
Speaker 3 (25:32):
So I'm going to be both a Homer and Coveno.
How would your dad say that about kissing ass?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
Why do you got to be kissing any.
Speaker 3 (25:47):
I'm gonna be mister positive for two teams that I
think are going to make the playoffs. Both have really
good defenses but are questionable with what's going on at quarterback.
People think they have a stop gap on both teams,
that's the Raiders and the Vice. I'm gonna lock both
of them into the playoffs. Who both wild cardsoons?
Speaker 1 (26:05):
Like because you know what I you know, I think
I was talking about that today about Sam Donald to
me is uh, I know Colin loves him, and I'm
not following that trend. I've seen a lot of Donald
and like you know, forty nine or stuff from last year,
and a lot of people thought that if party wasn't there,
Sam Donald could have led that team. He's he's.
Speaker 2 (26:26):
That Donald sucked right, Like, No, I never had that
put in terrible He was just in bad situations. Yeah,
no one if anything you know is better than what
we see.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
And he did say you was seeing ghosts. That doesn't
help your cause. I don't know it was it around Halloween,
Danny dan Byron, Well.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
Our boss was in here a couple of afternoons ago,
and in front of him we talked good about Sam Donald.
But I really believe it because even with him out
of the building, I think Donald's gonna put on a show.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Even if not, I find it to be a really
intriguing storyline, like where I'm tuning in to see what
the vice he's were doing with Darnold. All right, let's
go to the next category, which I believe is worst
team in the league. Who's gonna be the worst team
in the NFL? Dan Byer, you started off.
Speaker 4 (27:10):
My friends, you know, I'm going to pass the hot
potato to you, Rich dates Kues because I am going
to piggyback on what you say because we both have
it down on the list.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
Oh okay, all right, well you know, I'm thank you dB.
I think that when you look at their schedule, it's
not easy. This is a team that could start the season.
If you look at their first like six games, they
could be one in five, two and four. I heard
Cowherd speaking of Colins saying that he thinks their coach
might be the first on the hot seat. The division
got better, they necessarily didn't. Everyone's gonna say. I think
(27:41):
everyone's gonna say the Patriots or Cardinals. I'm going New
Orleans Saints. Oh, I think the Saints. The Caroline is
only going to be better. You know, when we saw
Baker bring Tampa to win that division last year, and
of course I think the team that wins that division
is Atlanta with Kirk Cousins. I think that is the
odd team, and they're gonna have a really rough go
(28:01):
at it. They might be like four and thirteen, three
and fourteen. I think we're looking at the Saints stinking.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
There's no buzz about them at all now, at least
like in Tennessee. You could be like, hey, new coach
and will Lovesara and new running backs.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
Well what's what's what's the buzz is Derek Carr go
get them.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Nothing going on with the New Orleans Saints quarterback competition
there as far as their fan base is concerned.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
They want Rattler to start. So that's that's no bueno
for New Orleans. So me and me and Dan Bayer
got the Saints. Cavino, you're up.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
I agree, there's no buzz about the Saints, but I
feel like they finish right above the Panthers, who were
still in last place in the NFC sound they were
two and fifteen. I understand it's a different situation this year,
but two and fifteen, all of a sudden, they're better
than the Saint maybe Carolina seven and you know, seven
(28:54):
and ten and the Saints are five.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
To find out Sunday they play Week one.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
So I'm sticking with the Panthers at the bottom. I
agree Rich the Falcons will be at the top of
the NFC South, but I still think the Buccaneers are
above the Saints and then the Panthers.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
So there you go. You're no your worst team, so
you think my worst team of the Panthers, So you
think that poor Bryce Young gets no no love this year.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
All right, It's not that, but he can't win by himself.
That's all I'm seeing. Panthers locked spotty.
Speaker 6 (29:27):
I'm not saying I'm gonna be a follower, but I
feel like, you know, I try to do a little research,
see what's out there. It seems like everyone is saying
the Patriots are gonna be last.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
And I know that seems to be.
Speaker 6 (29:38):
Obvious answer, but the obvious sometimes the obvious is the answer.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
And like, I'm just gonna lean Dow. I'm gonna go
with the Patriots. Not a bad it's not a bit.
I was Sam.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
Sorry for those who has spoken highly of the Vikings.
I don't believe in Sam Darnett at all, Darnold at all.
There's nothing to base that off of. He has failed
everywhere he's gone. So I'm taking the Vikings. No Aaron
Jones or Justin Jefferson defense. And they added Aaron Jones
in the backfield too great. I mean he played in
Green Bay, he was fine. I mean their defense has
never been that good over the last couple of years.
(30:11):
With Kevin, I love how dismissive I would say, why
do you guys think Sam Darnold is going to somehow
succeed and when he hasn't done it anywhere else.
Speaker 2 (30:19):
He's got a good coach, he's good, he's got good weapons. Yeah,
but he him himself, he throws a lot of picks.
He's mistake prone. I don't think he's a top tier quarterback.
Just justin Jefferson alone will give him almost two thousand passes.
I think you have to you still have to have
the point A to get to point B, and he's
not the point. That's a fair one, very convincing argument.
And Danny g wrap it up, my friend.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Yeah, you know, when Matthew Judon was traded to the
Falcons by the Patriots, to me, it was almost like
the Patriots already were like, yeah, we're looking forward to
next season. So I know it's the obvious answer, but
I'm gonna go New England Patriots.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Like you said, there's no buzz about the Saints, there's
like no excitement about the Patriots.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Well none. I think Dann Bayer backed me up that
the fact that they're going with Jacoby Brissett is the
signal that our young guy's not ready. This is not
the year. But we're gonna give it our shot. Yeah,
when you start your Kobe Brissett, no offense to him.
That's that's the indicator that you know, our rookie quarterback.
We're not gonna throw them to the wolves. We're gonna
(31:20):
let your Kobe Brissette try to play five hundred football
and see what happens.
Speaker 4 (31:23):
I think that they are protecting their assets. Yeah, and
at some point this season, Drake May will be the
starting quarterback. But yeah, for the time being, why not
just roll out the veteran and make sure Drake May
doesn't have any bad.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Habits after after decades of Belichick, this is a new start,
so you can't expect magic over now.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
Sometimes teams hit rock bottom during a season, like the Cardinals,
like a couple of years ago. I felt like even
entered this season, they had to go down, and then
last year they ended up rebounding bouncing up. Now they
had the fourth overall pick, so they weren't that great
last year, but they played hard. Kyler Murray came back
from injury, so they There's an example of where the
Patriots maybe still haven't hit rock bottom, but maybe will
(32:03):
at some point this season and then start their climb back.
Speaker 3 (32:06):
Up last category, Danny g what we got quickly. We'll
stay with Buyer for MVP. I've said that I'm gonna
just pick him until he wins an MVP. Joe Burrow
Cincinnati Bengals. Oh that's a good one, all right. I
like that Coveno, mine's boring, man. But like we said,
sometimes the obvious is the answer. He won in twenty nineteen,
(32:27):
he won in twenty twenty three. Like I said, I
think he's got a chip on his shoulder. He might
be playing for that ship. I think Lamar Jackson gets
it all right, Rich, You're gonna love this one.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
I'm telling you, this is not my out on a limb.
This is my MVP. Just for the record, Okay, everything
Cavino said five minutes ago, I'm gonna say the opposite. No,
what Aaron Rodgers is your MVP. It's a fun one.
Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
Keep in mind, Rich, though I'm not rooting against Aaron
rod I get it. He just like I'm not rooting
against Bryce Young. I was just they're coming off injury.
I don't know what the game, what you're gonna get.
I understand that.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
You know you could argue that Aaron Rodgers hasn't done
anything since people were wearing COVID masks. But I just
think they coming off the injury, he actually has real weapons.
That team's defense is good, so they'll be in a
lot of games. And I think listen wide receiving corps
as good as any team he had towards the end
in Green Bay. And you have, I mean, you have
(33:22):
a good head coach and Robert sell I maybe become
a little Homer because he was a Niners guy. But
I don't know. Bricet Hall gonna deliver maybe out of
the backyard Rodgers, Aaron Rodgers. Wow, all right, Spotty, you're MVP.
I feel like everyone would choose the obvious of Patrick Mahomes.
I'm gonna go based on the betting odds. What the
odds are right now? And you know how when you
(33:43):
go out to eat and you always choose the second
cheapest bottle of wine. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm gonna choose
who's pretty much in second place as far as MVP odds,
and I'm gonna go with Josh Allen. Yeah, it's a
good choice. Oh what does that say? What's my pick?
Speaker 5 (33:59):
This person has the last name of Clark. Oh, Kaylen
Clark's my MVP. I'm sorry sports Okay, Well, I already
wrote that in there, So it's Kaylyn.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
She's your MVP in life. That's right, she's my most
valuable person. I know who's not. Sam Darnold's not his MVP.
I know that not at all. Who's your NFL m
v P. I don't know. I already wrot Kaylyn Clark
in there, so I guess she wouldn't it.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
Here's such a weeny Danny g It's a great joke
that we will continue to laugh at me leading into it.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
You will have a second lath over wings. Remember remember
when Sam can't wait till February? He said, switch it
up a little bit, and switch it up his finest man.
I can't believe he'saying Clark again against making a mockery
of my list one hundred percent? Do you got jokes right?
Speaker 3 (34:44):
I'm gonna no, no, I'm going to prove that I
don't take things personal. This guy ignored me and a
couple other media members at the Super Bowl, but I
still think he's going to have an m VP season,
and I'd ignore me too.
Speaker 1 (34:58):
At the Super Bowl.
Speaker 2 (34:59):
C J. Straw ah, hey, man, and this gets written
down officially on the prediction sheet in the studio, right
in the producer studio, and it gets.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Laminated what later today?
Speaker 3 (35:08):
Yeah, after the uh, after the weekend after yeah, after
the first weekend. So it's Sunday, so I'll probably put
it up all right.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Great job, Dan Byer, thanks for doing this. It has
a lot of fun. And nobody said Jordan Love MVP.
I know for sure would get one or two of.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
Those, you know what.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
I was close though, saying Texans Packers super Bowl, so
I had I was trying to decide between the Lions
and the Packers.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
Didn't you Colin pick uh Jordan Love as his MVP?
He sure did.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
And a lot of people have have been influenced there.
And I've heard a lot of just my friends, you know,
it's Jordan's Love season. Man, I'm really surprised that no
one said that. So hey, great stuff. I'm gonna go
fill out the sheet right now, Dann Bayer, let's get
an update quick, anybody.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
Yeah, Raven's chiefs.
