Speaker 1 (01:25):
How the hell we feeling here on this Monday morning?
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Good man? Good what up?
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Sticks out?
Speaker 5 (01:33):
What?
Speaker 1 (01:38):
What a game last night?
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Oh? Yeah, it was a game. That was a game.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
What a colossal gag job by the Baltimore Ravens.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
It was a little Yeah, it was a little gag job.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
That's just especially when it's the team that ended your
season a few months ago and you're like, you know,
we're going to make a statement. They were in total
control of that game, total control, and the fourth quarter
happened and next thing you know, it was just a
comedy of airs for the Baltimore Ravens, who ended up
coming off short yet again to the Buffalo Bills. But
that was a hell of a game and a hell
(02:14):
of a way to close up the first Sunday in
the NFL.
Speaker 6 (02:18):
Yeah, you know, I thought it was a very very
exciting day. Outside of the obviously the obvious being the
first real week of NFL football. I just I felt
like coming away from some competitive games, some teams looking like.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
Some really good teams.
Speaker 6 (02:44):
That it's still I hate to do this because if
it was your team that came out on top yesterday,
I just feel like this kind of takes away from
it a little bit from me, not from anyone else.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Keep it the way you want to keep it.
Speaker 6 (03:01):
But it's Week one and I almost feel as though
because of the way preseason is played and there's not
a there's not.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
A level of.
Speaker 6 (03:18):
I would say game legs, there's not a true level
of game legs or preparation in terms of how you're
going to play that first team because you're really not
sure what these teams are going to come out and
do wrinkle wise and personality wise for the season plays,
(03:41):
you know, so to speak, what is the new trend
that that coaches are going to have within their playbooks.
Speaker 4 (03:49):
I think it's a hard week to judge, I really do.
Speaker 6 (03:56):
It would be premature and irresponsible for me to say
this is a good team or this isn't a good
team based upon yesterday's results. But at face value, I
thought it was. It was a good opening day for
the NFL.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
For well certain An example of that was last year
Week one, the Patriots beat the Bengals, and New England
was awful and fired their coach and went through that
whole circus they went through and then ultimately hiring Mike Rabels.
So you know, like you just yeah to your point,
you look back at Week one results, you know, in retrospect,
(04:35):
and you realize, all right, what really were we discussing
or breaking down or what really what did that result
actually mean? The one thing I know is that Buffalo
and Baltimore, those teams are good, and it feels like,
much like they met last year in the postseason, that
(04:57):
this may be an opportunity to see them play twice
again this year. Josh Allen, the winning side of things,
the quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, the reigning MVP, talked
about the performance afterwards.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
It took everybody there. I'm just proud of our team
for staying in it. No one on the sideline blinked,
I mean, down fifteen points whatever we were with five
six minutes left, staying with it, Fans leaving, you know,
the stadium. You know, you gotta play this game for
sixty minutes. And that's that's a really good outfit that
we just played, and you know, God willing we take
care of business how we're supposed to and how we
(05:32):
think we will. You know, it's probably a team we'll
see again. So you know, they're they're a great lea
coach team. Hats off to them for having a really
good game plan. But you know, gotta were stuck in there,
and I'm just proud of our guys.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Why are fans leaving the stadium? So it's the last
year for that stadium. You should enjoy every second you
possibly can. It's not like you're seeing bad football players
out there. There's Hall of famers riddled all over that field.
Why would you want to leave early? The hell? Else
is going on in Buffalo?
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Some wen, it's this thing called work. People have to
go to getting that work. Yeah, get a like you know,
get a get a real job.
Speaker 6 (06:07):
Yep, that's exactly right. That's exactly right. So that that happens.
You know that that's a part of things. So if
you could try to beat the traffic, the rush, the
wave out of a game, I get it. You know,
it's it's interesting, you know people, that's a part of
(06:28):
I feel like football culture. You have a you have
a certain demographic or a certain portion of fans, and
I'm not sure why they go to games because you
see them leaving at halftime. Yeah, like literally like that's
their time to depart. Like we got the first half
in wonderful, We're out. It's weird. I don't know. And
(06:51):
I've seen that. I won't throw any throwing these sets
out there. I won't throw any names out there. But
I literally only go to one football game live, So
y'all could do the math on that. But it's weird
because when I'm going out to go to the suites.
When I'm going to the suites, it's it's it's interesting
(07:12):
how many people I see the partying the game while
I'm heading out and back in.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
To go to the suites.
Speaker 6 (07:18):
But and I thought it was like maybe, like is
this a coincidence? And then now this is like, you know,
the next week, and it's like, no, it's still a
very very large Russia people who are leaving the stadium
at haf time. It's kind of or maybe they're leaving
the Gotel gate and they are they allowed re entrance.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
No, I don't, and that's funni. Yeah, And so I'm
glad that any of those Bills fans that wanted to
walk away from Game one with like I mentioned, Hall
of famers everywhere, final year of that stadium, with all
the great players that have been through. I'm glad they
walked up back to the front gate and they were like,
you can take a walk back to where you came from.
(07:57):
You're not a real member of Bill's mafia.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I love it, Love it morning.
Speaker 7 (08:05):
What I'd say about that is this was probably those
might be the best game we see all season, at
least in the regular season. It had literally everything you're
looking for. The star power. You know, you obviously have
two guys who've been League MVPs who are searching for
Super Bowls. You had defenses that at times stepped up.
You had running games that at times were dominant. I mean,
(08:26):
I think most people probably thought after the long Derek
Henry run that thing was over. But then you've got,
you know, the advantage of just I would say luck,
like like luck played a factor too. I mean, you
can't tell me it's not luck. When you get a
tipball like that that goes to Keon Cole Whan he
catches it to help them get back into the game,
where Derrick Henry who has had, you know, one of
(08:48):
his best nights of his career, and then fumbles you know,
you know, in their own territory with three minutes left.
There's just there's so many things that went into that,
even the story of the kicker who hits the kick
Matt Matt Prater just signed there this week, he just
signed there. The whole thing is like as good of
a story as you could write. And it's week one
(09:10):
Sunday Night football. It was phenomenal.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
I thought the uh, the day of games in general
were actually really really good, very competitive, very tight games.
Speaker 7 (09:20):
You know, Washington, New York. The score looked more out
of hand than it actually was. I mean the Giants obviously,
you know, had an opportunity to make it a one
score at the game there late had a couple of
opportunities really, but all in all, I mean, just an
incredible day of football in the NFL. And what what
a night man that was. That was unbelievable, Like that
was one of the craziest endings and turnarounds. I do
(09:44):
have a bone to pick though, at some point about
some decision making by Sean mcderth though.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Well, let's see, what's the what's the issue.
Speaker 7 (09:52):
So so two times this happened in the game, and
it made zero sense to me. I was talking to
a buddy when they did it the first time. But
the Bills went down fifteen. And this was in the
third quarter the first time they went for two. And
there's probably some people out there who are gonna try
to make an analytical argument, but to me, at that
point the third quarter, you could probably say you could
(10:14):
go for two, you can kick pat. Doesn't matter quite
as much because what they did in that in that
instance was they went for two.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
They didn't get it.
Speaker 7 (10:22):
Now that puts you down nine, it's two possessions. Later
after that long Derick Henry run the down forty to
twenty five. The next touchdown they get kicked the pat.
Why because you don't want to be down two possessions.
You don't know if you're gonna get the ball back,
how many possessions you have left. I would have applied
the same logic in the third quarter that I did
(10:45):
in the fourth quarter if I'm Sean McDermott, because of
how that game's going like that.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
That was a game where if.
Speaker 7 (10:52):
I'm like especially a defensive minded head coach, I don't
know how many more times I'm gonna get the ball
back and how many more times get the ball back
without them throwing out another score. I mean, at that
moment in the third quarter, it felt like it was
kind of a shootout and then Buffalo was really gonna
have to make some big time defensive changes. I do
have one more grape too, by the way, about this game,
(11:14):
but that for some reason it bothered me because I, well, no, like,
you shouldn't change your decision making to extend it to
like a point where you have to have a couple
more possessions. You assume you're gonna get the ball back
a couple more times, but you can't make the assumption
that you know, uh, Baltimore is gonna only have forty points,
(11:35):
like they're not gonna score in one of those possessions.
So I hated that decision making. The last thing I'll
just say is this, and this LeVar you can chime
in on. When Derek Henry starts going off, Chris Collins
has said something that I'm sitting there thinking, like, Chris,
you know this isn't true, Like why are you saying this?
He's like, well, you know, Buffalo is trying to adjust
(11:55):
to a two h safety look just to get two
guys taking angles at Dereck Henry to stop him.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
You know, he's being so dominant.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
I saw I heard that.
Speaker 7 (12:04):
I was like, Bro, you know that's not why a
team would like, in no way, shape or form would
a team ever play. You could say, oh, they're playing
cover four to the safety support of that, you know.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Getting into attack in the run. Dude, they're playing nickel.
Speaker 7 (12:20):
They had nickel, they had die package out there, like
they needed to play more base personnel, which they did
in the second half because you bring an additional linebacker. Like,
if there's any adjustment that the Bills needed to make
or should have made earlier, was hey, man, we've got
you know, we've we've got some guys that we feel
like can maybe match up when Baltimore goes to their
sub personnel three wide receiver sets, or we're just gonna
(12:42):
have to play base personnel and use three linebackers versus
their versus their three wide receiver sets and make Lamar say,
all right, you've got to match up the pass game.
Take that instead of just handing it off to Derrick
Henry letting him run all over us. But in no way,
shape or form me you sitting there saying we're gonna
play a too high shell to stop Derrick Henry running
the football. Like, if anything, you put an extra body
(13:04):
down a line on the line of scrimmage and it's
post high, or you're playing zero coverage where there's no
safety help and you're trying to get everyone you can
up around the line of scrimmage to stop Derrick Henry
before he gets started.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
It was one of the most insane comments that.
Speaker 7 (13:18):
I've ever heard made by a guy who I respect,
I love listening to. He's done a phenomenal job throughout
his career, but it was it was some of the worst.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Commentating of her time regards to you know, what the
Bills are trying to do to stop Derrick Henry.
Speaker 6 (13:35):
I mean it's you're not using a two high for
stopping the run. I mean you when you have, in fact, again,
the way they were getting through the first and second
wave of tacklers, I mean two high doesn't even really matter.
I mean, you got first, first wave, second wave of defenders,
(13:59):
you got to de line, you got the linebackers, you
got the secondary guys. I mean, by the time a
second secondary guy is going to get to Derrick Henry.
That's already you know, eight to nine yards. You know,
he's already past the second second level of the defense.
So yeah, I don't I don't think. I don't see
that per se And generally speaking, when you have.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
Some safeties, did you hear this?
Speaker 6 (14:24):
I did hear it. I did hear I didn't give
it too much. I just was like, you know, I
did kind of go like what, but I didn't give
it any more thought than like what.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
You know, Sean, Sean McDermot, Chris collins Worth. It's week
one for everybody. You know, maybe they'll work through this
stuff as the season goes on.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
I just listen.
Speaker 6 (14:43):
When you have that second safety, generally the front side
safety is alway, he's back anyway. It's the backside safety
that is going to be the backside plug field gap player.
So whether you have a single high or not, generally speaking,
if it's a single high, you probably you do have
(15:04):
another guy that's out in coverage versus having another guy
that might be inside the run lane like what is
considered to be the I guess the box, but they're
off the ball unless you've shifted and brought that safety down,
which would possibly give you an extra backer closer to
the run if in theory, you know, you looked at
(15:27):
it that way, But listen the way the way Derek
was getting through that first level and to the second level.
Speaker 4 (15:34):
Yeah, it's not that. That was not That was not
the problem.
Speaker 6 (15:37):
The problem was is that the Bills offensive line was
doing an amazing job of ceiling and opening those run
lanes Baltimore. Excuse me, Baltimore, Well, Bills were too, but
Baltimore's old line was doing both old lines were doing
a great job of getting to their spots and opening
(15:59):
up run lanes for guys to be able to get
into them. And you know, when you have that, that's
going to be difficult. But to your point, why you
you know you were joking about it's being week one.
You know that's probably something that once these guys do
get their real game legs under them, that it most
likely will be a little bit more difficult to be
(16:21):
able to create those type of run lanes. Possibly, possibly
these old lines could just be really that good and
be able to hook and turn guys the way they
want to turn them. But I found out to be
pretty interesting, Like man these offensive linemen are literally on
some of the plays, they were getting a hold of
these defensive linemen and they were turning them back inside
(16:44):
like they didn't even reach them. They got a hold
of them and made it into a reach block. And
I'm sitting there like, man, I ain't never seen nothing
like that, Like I don't, I don't. That's not common
to see that. But they were manhandling one and they're
out there, so made it a pretty cool game in
the wist? Is it fair to say this is a preview?
Speaker 7 (17:05):
THEFC Championship is a two and a half I number one
week indo it so?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
And you know I thought about this too. How many
times do we talk about, well, you know the NBA
or some of these other sports have a seven games.
Give me a seven game series between the Bills and
the Ravens. Please let me watch this over and over again.
I want to see it as many times as possible.
I'd rather watch that game than virtually any other matchup
in the NFL. Give me those reasons.
Speaker 7 (17:31):
You never get that same sort of intensity, that same
sort of environment that for every single game because you
know it's a best a seven series, Like that's what.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Makes football unique. That's what makes the sudden death playoffs
in the NFL unique.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
That's what makes it great. If you were a Bills
fan that left, like sorry about it, than you miss
you can't come back for game two, game three, and
game four, Like that's it. You have one shot at it,
that's got it. I couldn't disagree more like, that's what
I think I love about football in comparison to the NBA,
to a lot of the leagues, and granted different sports,
but still that's what makes it awesome in my mind,
(18:05):
is you get one shot at this, that's it.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
The Ravens have got to be kicking themselves just thinking
that team ended our season last year in a really
close game and a Mark Andrews drop on a two
point conversion, and then we have this opportunity. We've got
a two score lead, everything's going our way, and it was,
like we said earlier, a comedy of airs that led
to them losing.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
The little Lamar put his hands on one of the fans.
I mean, you know, he was letting y'all know this
was real. You know this ain't for fake. This for
real out here? You know when keeps out here, you.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Know, I did find it interesting.
Speaker 7 (18:40):
Collinsworth had to bring up the Mark Andrews drop and
he's going, you know, you know what, he'll forget about
that never, It'll be.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
With him forever. He's just got to play with it.
I was like, damn, I don't know about that.
Speaker 7 (18:53):
It's like, I mean, he might think if they never
win a Super Bowl, he might think about that, Yeah,
I might stick with them, But.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
Under the way he put it, it's like, stick with
them forever. We'll never forget about that. Rough I will
say this too quickly.
Speaker 7 (19:12):
I feel like maybe they got away a little bit
from you know, involving Lamar Jackson in the run game
the way they could have and kind of dictated that.
I just it's so hard, like going back to the
Derek Henry success, which it's unfortunately he fumbles, you know
in that moment, which ultimately kind of led to the
comeback because he had such a great game.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
But it's a numbers count. So the two high shell thing.
Speaker 7 (19:38):
The reality is you don't have enough bodies down around
the line of scrimmage to stop Dereck Henry before he
gets started. And that's the reality of any big back
like him. If you think a safety ten yards away
is going to be able to stop Derick Henry, You're
out of your damn mind. I mean, you want to
get to him in the backfield or around line of scrimmage,
(19:58):
or one or two yards deep where he starts hitting
that nineteen miles per hour he was clocked at going
last night like that dude running twenty miles an hour
almost You're not stopping him.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
You had no shot, so you kind of have to.
Speaker 7 (20:12):
And the problem is if you combine Lamar Jackson and
Derek Henry's ability both run the football, in order to
properly account for every run gap and properly account for
both is you have to play zero coverage. There's no
other way defensively for you to be able to stop
that rushing attack, which leaves everyone vultable because now it's
(20:33):
man to man, there's no safety help. And Lamar Jackson
is a former MVP. He was good enough to dice
you up from the pocket. So I know, Baltimore lost,
I'd say you're Baltimore Ravens fam You're fine. I mean
Zave Flowers. The way he's stepped up the playmaking ability.
Hopkins arguably had made the greatest catch we'll see all year.
I mean, this team is loaded, and I think they're
(20:55):
gonna be able to be right back in the AFC
Championship game. I just I sit there and like wonder,
like is watching both those teams, you felt like, Okay,
they looked maybe they're just further ahead of everyone else,
but they look better than Casey, they look better than Chargers,
they look better in the Bengals. I don't know who
else you're throw in the AFC in that picture, but
they look like a level above everyone else.
Speaker 6 (21:17):
In the AFC. Yeah, I'm not going to get carried away.
That's that's all I'm gonna say. Week one. I just
you could look better than what you are, or you
could not look as good as you're gonna be.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
I just that's to me.
Speaker 6 (21:30):
That's the first thing that was my first conclusion is
coming away with. I'm not going like, yes, they looked good,
and there were a couple of teams that actually looked good, and.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
I'm not willing to say they're good. I just I'm not.
Speaker 6 (21:48):
And I guess I just gotta wait and see.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
It's a wait and see for me.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
Who the Super Bowl.
Speaker 4 (21:55):
Ravens. I got the Ravens one in it.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
So you're not trying to sticks pick damn right.
Speaker 7 (22:01):
You're not trying to get too excited about, you know,
how good they looked, with the exception of they look.
Speaker 6 (22:05):
Good, but you know, I assume they're going to look good.
I assume they're going to be good. I assume, but
Buffalo is going to look good. I assume Buffalo is
going to be good. I'm just not willing to confirm
or or just really really go all in, like, yep,
they look like that.
Speaker 4 (22:25):
They are the teams.
Speaker 6 (22:26):
I think they're good because personnel wise, they're a really
good team. But I don't know, like Pittsburgh, No, no,
something got caught my throat a little.
Speaker 2 (22:35):
Bit sad, sounds like some got hiccups or maybe.
Speaker 6 (22:38):
Yeah, something a little like like I don't like maybe
like that morning, you know that morning, like.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
You get that ef Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:48):
But anyway, I know the air is different here in
Pennsylvania this time of the year.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
You're differently, right, Yeah, I'm there, Yeah, because.
Speaker 6 (22:57):
I go to all the games and so instead of
just fly right out and then flying right back, I
got some things I have to do.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
And hey, I'll let me tell you this much. A
little disappointed.
Speaker 7 (23:06):
I know they pitched to shut out, you know, scored
three some points, but they didn't cover all.
Speaker 4 (23:10):
Right.
Speaker 6 (23:11):
Yeah, I was always to us, It's almost like in
my mind looking at it, not not to just really
pivot so quickly. It was like they didn't want to
show anything, and they were so vanilla so early that
it was like, are you, like, are we doing ball
control here? You know, like let's give them something, Let's
(23:33):
give the fans some excitement, like like let's go ahead
and like let's do it. Let's let's get up and
then be a little bit more conservative. But I don't know,
I you know, I I reserved my judgments on that.
They did end up pulling away, but it was a
(23:53):
very very slow start.
Speaker 7 (23:54):
Super you think they're saving it because they've got I mean,
they're not going to show anything versus Villanova next week,
but then they've got a buy in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 4 (24:02):
Then they got then that white out.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
Yeah, I mean that's like I said, coming into week one,
and I don't know if you were on to hear this,
but coming into week one, I think that's what a
lot of NFL teams had to deal with with one another.
We don't really know from the preseason what you're going
to get. You know, you get to know the personnel,
but you don't really get to know what the plays, what,
what the trends, what, what the new formations, what the
(24:26):
new wrinkles, what what those are going to be. Everybody
has to start getting that on film and then you're
going to start to see who's who and what's what.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
Baltimore. Yeah, one one to bet they're pretty damn good.
Speaker 6 (24:40):
I mean, I don't disagree. I don't disagree, but it'll
be better games, I would assume, or at least you're
going to I'm not going to say better games because
they were. There were some really good games yesterday. Just
I think there's going to be a different there's going
to be different outcomes for different teams moving forward.

from now, we're gonna have another edition of In case
you missed it here on Fox Sports Radio starring Lead
to Lap. I'll say this right now, Lead to Lap's
not making it through this season with the Packers, Hey leels,
was that they look damn good. They look damn good,
have a lot to celebrate this year. There's no shot
(28:03):
his liver is still with us by the time this
season's over. Not a chance. So buckle up, boys, buckle up.
Oh I'm making it.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
No, you're not.
Speaker 6 (28:15):
Lee, You're not. You're not going to make it. Lee,
You didn't you drank this weekend?
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Bro Like up until the game?
Speaker 4 (28:24):
You one drink this weekend?
Speaker 9 (28:26):
Of course they didn't up until the game.
Speaker 4 (28:28):
Leeh.
Speaker 7 (28:28):
I think you missed the whole point of of when
you couldn't couldn't drink. We were actually trying to get
you to go dry the entire season. If they got
Micah Parsons that that ship of sales.
Speaker 9 (28:37):
Season kicked off yesterday. There was a whole weekend before that.
Speaker 4 (28:43):
You you don't even realize.
Speaker 7 (28:44):
He sounded like they played a four o'clock game Eastern time.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
There was one o'clock games. The season kicked off on Thursday.
Speaker 9 (28:52):
Yeah, but the Packers didn't. I don't think you understand
that part.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
He did.
Speaker 6 (28:55):
He did say that. But the bottom that you made
an excuse for yourself to be.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Which you lie, which is another piece of all.
Speaker 4 (29:02):
And which he does lie.
Speaker 9 (29:04):
First, First of all, I don't know who what makes
it so that you guys are setting the rules. It's
my my life, I can do.
Speaker 6 (29:11):
You sound like you sound like somebody has told you
you need to stick up for yourself, which is.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Fine, whoa.
Speaker 4 (29:16):
But the bottom line.
Speaker 6 (29:17):
Is is that it's your issue you're dealing with, so
you know what, you go right ahead and deal with it.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
By the way, Lorena's giving him Q cards like she's
telling them what they say right now.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Don't don't tell them that. I mean, we can kind
of tell.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
No doubt.
Speaker 9 (29:34):
I mean, if we want to throw this whole experiment away,
that's fine by me.
Speaker 7 (29:37):
You know that's Yeah, there's no experiment, which it's all
you just talking about like you do it.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
But yeah, there's there's no experiment.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
It's not happening.
Speaker 7 (29:45):
Unless you're talking about you and Lorena, that'd be a
different story.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
You're trying to throw that away, is that what you're saying.
Speaker 4 (29:50):
No, he's not. He's trying to preserve that they're working together.
Speaker 9 (29:54):
Hey, I'm just saying I didn't drink during the game,
and the Packers blew out the Lions, so I think
overall everything's.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
Really did you drink after the game?
Speaker 9 (30:03):
I haven't had a drink since the Packers kicked off yesterday.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
And you're supposed to. You're supposed to not.
Speaker 9 (30:08):
Drink its entire the entire season, drink this week. Yeah,
I'm not going to drink the rest of the week.
Speaker 4 (30:26):
I want to do with it.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
Uh for hey, Lebar, I know you don't want to, like,
you know, make any rush to judgment stuff here when
it comes to teams and who's question. It does does
feel like, you know, maybe the Lions had a had
a window of opportunity that might might have have closed
some some golden opportunities the past couple of years. It
(30:49):
may have just you know, slipped right through their hands.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
They did not look like the same team. I'll tell
you that. And listen, green Bay did look good. They
did look good.
Speaker 6 (30:59):
But again, coming out of Week one, my question is,
were they so good that they could make Detroit not
look very good at all? And I refuse to believe
that that Detroit is going to fall that far off.
But I do believe, and I said this in our predictions.
(31:20):
I do believe that they're the third team in the
division right now. I do believe that. So if we're
talking about windows of opportunity, I would have to say.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Even with this only being Week.
Speaker 6 (31:32):
One, yeah, yes, I do think that this is a
team that probably has seen their window open and shut
in terms of being Super Bowl contending. As of right now,
I don't think that this is a super Bowl contending team.
Speaker 7 (31:51):
So I hate division matchups to start off Week one,
and it's kind of for this reason.
Speaker 2 (31:57):
It's a little unfair.
Speaker 7 (31:59):
You've got to play such a big game, at least
in the context of trying to win your division, trying
to get to the playoffs early, but early, when you're
still adjusting some of the changes. You know, you've got
two new coordinators on offense and defense. That's a big
time adjustment for a team that's had a lot of success,
you know, with Ben Johnson, with Aaron Glenn, and that's
(32:20):
that's one of the There's other reasons too, but that's
one of the reasons why. To me, it's like you'd
like to get a few games under your belt that
don't matter for the context of the division. Like I'm
okay with the schedule makers. Want to do one early,
one late, doing week three, doing week four, do it,
do it some o their way so you're not having
you know, Kansas City and the LA Chargers score off
(32:41):
in Brazil, like the Saints in Carolina. Down there is
something you know, you want to put a divisional game
down there, Go go put an NFC South matchup down there, right,
don't don't take away our AFC West matchup and go
play that internationally.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
That's for our fans America first.
Speaker 4 (32:59):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:00):
Second, the difference between Bryce Young and Justin Herbert, Yeah,
come on.
Speaker 7 (33:05):
Like you keep you keep our best games, stay on
our turf, all right, stop sitting that crap overseas. But
the other point I'll make is it feels like these
two teams are on two different courses. This could be
a weak one overreaction, but green Bay looks like a
team that's destined to make a run. He loves playing phenomenal.
(33:27):
Micah Parsons had his impact, although I will say this, LeVar,
when he got his first sack, he did some sort
of celebration. It was not about Stick City.
Speaker 4 (33:36):
Man.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
It was like one stick was holding up one. Yeah,
I think he's transitioning a bit.
Speaker 4 (33:43):
Listen, here's the thing.
Speaker 6 (33:45):
I didn't wear eleven in the proschol Carter is and
wearing five plus six. Five plus six does equal eleven.
And you can't get eleven without one. Though, you know,
you got to have one to get to one, to
get to eleven. But I'll just say that, you know, yeah,
you do need ten more of them, but you know
you gotta have that one to get to the first one.
(34:05):
You know, this second one. It is a place, you know.
And the beers were flowing this weekend too.
Speaker 7 (34:10):
By the way, is like, is Micah Parson's stick? It's
not sticks? It is that like that, like when you're
going to Stick City? Do you stop off at Stick City?
Speaker 4 (34:23):
Maybe? Baby?
Speaker 6 (34:25):
Oh, it's more of a college thing though, you know,
it was it was unexpected that guys would even be
able to wear a number like one or eleven in
the league anyways, it's more of a college thing. I
don't I never really looked at it as it transitions
into the league. So it was nice to have him
in it for the time that he did with with
(34:46):
the Dallas Cowboys. But I could see why he would
want to change his number, like just have a fresh start.
He seemed like he needed to. He still needs to
acclimate to the team. He looked a little out of place,
a little looked like he was trying to like figure
it all out, like just look like a new guy.
That confidence that he usually has. You know, I didn't,
(35:07):
I didn't see it. So you know, he's gonna have
to He's going to have to work through it. And
that's something that people, you know, maybe oftentimes don't look
at and see see the value of it is just
getting that confidence and that comfort with teammates. You got
to build that camaraderie and build that relationship between the
two of you, and you know, between all of you,
(35:30):
and you know, it looks like they're they're pulling for him,
but it does look like he's like it's like the
Green Bay Packers defense and Michael Parsons that's that's kind
of what it looked like yesterday.
Speaker 2 (35:41):
Sounds a good name of a band, yeah, right.
Speaker 4 (35:43):
Like the Five Heartbeats and Eddie Kane, you know.
Speaker 2 (35:46):
Yeah, something like that. Whatever that means.
Speaker 4 (35:48):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (35:49):
Transitioning from Dallas Day Green Bay can be, you know,
sometimes tough, especially a week one. But you know what
transition from is actually easy to do. From your old
stinking mattress to a good mattress and mattress firm, because
good sleep starts with a good mattress, guys, and I've
trusted matches from Sleep Experts to find my perfect mattress
from their premium selection for the great sleep that Jonas
(36:11):
needs so deeply that he deserves visit match from for
the best sale of the year that makes sleep easy.

Speaker 9 (37:30):
Good Monday morning, everybody, Good morning, Jonas, good morning, Brady,
Good morning, LeVar. Guys, In case you miss this viral
moment from the weekend Harrison Bader of the Phillies knocks
a home run into the stands where a dad in
waiting goes and grabs it and gives it to his son.
Happens to be his birthday, but then, of course, is
born in an internet sensation of Phillies Karen, who came
(37:51):
over and be rated the man for grabbing the ball
and getting it in front of her. In front of her,
and now she's been misidentified all over the place. Uh
some I'm saying she's a teacher in New Jersey. The
New Jersey School District has issued a statement saying anybody
who works for our school district, attended as a student,
or lives in our community would obviously have caught the
ball bare handed in the first place, avoiding the entire situation.
(38:12):
Uh yeah, lots of Internet sleuths trying to figure out
who Philly's Karen is.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
So did she have taking the ball away?
Speaker 9 (38:19):
Yeah, she did eventually get the ball taken away from
the dad. It was out of Marlin's game. Marlins came
in and gave the family a bunch of goodies. He
got a signed bat from Harrison Bader as well. Yeah,
very viral moment from the weekend.
Speaker 2 (38:31):
Yeah, Lorena, what do you have to say for yourself?
Speaker 4 (38:33):
Lorena?
Speaker 2 (38:33):
You have to say it wasn't me.
Speaker 4 (38:35):
Tang, Lorena, the ball was right in front of me.
Speaker 6 (38:39):
Bro, you're being mean. You got Lee being mean. It's
just you're just on a mean kick right now.
Speaker 4 (38:45):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
So, like everybody's feeling bad for this dad who got
bitched in front of his kid. Yeah, basically, please, sorry, buddy,
I don't do what that every day. Yeah, don't blame her.
Speaker 4 (38:57):
I'm blame yourself.
Speaker 9 (39:00):
Godly, he did apologize to it, said publicly for giving
the ball away.
Speaker 4 (39:05):
He should.
Speaker 7 (39:06):
I would have held on to that ball. And I've
been come taking from my dead hands. Want ball, Come
take it from my dead hands. You didn't get it.
That's how life works. Sits your ass down.
Speaker 1 (39:16):
Hey here, fine, it's yours. You need it more than us.
Speaker 4 (39:22):
You're right.
Speaker 7 (39:22):
I shouldn't blame Lorena. I should blame the lack of
masculinity in this world right now. You know what, You're
a man, Stand up, Take the damn baseball, Go get
her some popcorn, Tell her to sit her ass down,
watch the rest of the game. Maybe if she actually
worked out, wasn't just oh I want a power walk.
Speaker 2 (39:41):
No, go run some sprints, Go lift some weights. Maybe
it's some protein instead of having a kale salad. I
had a kale salad. It was delicious.
Speaker 1 (39:51):
What a dorn.
Speaker 7 (39:52):
Get your ass out there, get stronger. Maybe you'll get
the ball next time.
Speaker 1 (39:56):
All right, his son should move out.
Speaker 4 (40:01):
A whole lot of venison outside of my mob window
right now? Is there? I wish I had a bow.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
I'd show you some masculine.
Speaker 1 (40:09):
You got that burner?
Speaker 6 (40:11):
I don't, I do not. I don't think that would work.
I don't think that would work. I'm gonna go ahead
and pull that bow back though. Let it go
