Speaker 4 (00:49):
All right.
Speaker 5 (00:49):
For the steakout, Sean, it's taking an early look at
the divisional round game against the Kansas City Chiefs. We've
discussed this topic multiple times this season, so I'm gonna
ask you point blank, yeah, are you concerned that the
referees are going to play a factor in the game
(01:11):
against the Chiefs.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Of course, I'm concerned about the referees in every game,
even if it's not a team i'm rooting for that
they're gonna make a call. I'm watching a game yesterday.
I know it didn't end up mattering in the end,
but what game was it? Was it the what was
the middle game yesterday?
Speaker 4 (01:28):
That was the Packers and the Eagles.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Didn't I see Jordan Love Now?
Speaker 3 (01:34):
He ended up throwing an interception that called you know,
down there the cost of Philadelphia intercept?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Didn't I see?
Speaker 3 (01:40):
When they were backed up, scrambled hit a five yard
play and the referees they called. They thought it was
let's see he hit a five yard completion. There was
a penalty flag. They said there was no flag. After review,
there's no flag. They picked up the flag and Green
(02:02):
Bay got the ball, but they didn't move the five
yards from the and both of both the broadcasters were saying,
isn't that a Brady and Tom Brady?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Wasn't a Brady?
Speaker 4 (02:10):
Was Brady? And Kevin Kevin Burkhart?
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Then they say it was wasn't there a completion? And
then Mike Pereire came on says, yeah, why don't they
mean yeah, so I know that it didn't matter in
the game, but how are you missing stuff like that? Yeah,
so of course I'm concerned. And you know, he's the
golden child of the league. If it's close, you're gonna
get He's gonna get a call.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
It just is.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
And you know what, maybe that's the Jordan rules and
the bird wruls. You get those calls. I guess when
you're a star. Now, to me, it's either a pedalty
or it's not, no matter who the quarterback is. But
unfortunately that that's that's a fantasy world we live in.
So of course I'm concerned about it. But I'm gonna
tell you what. If I'm Kansas City, I'm concerned about
your offense hasn't exactly. I can pick ten offenses that
I like better than Kansas City. But the problem the
(02:51):
equalizer is reading in Mahomes period. But now they're getting
right at the right time. Their offense is started picking up.
But if you go by the body of War this year,
their defense scares you far more than their offense. Yeah,
but I can tell you this, if you're the Kansas
City Chiefs going in, what's it minus eight or nine?
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Right now?
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Right now, it's seven and a half.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Now they're like when it's thirty five degrees or below
and it's supposed to be in the twenties this week
in Kansas City, the Chiefs are like eleven in one
of the playoffs. They play well in bad weather, they
didn't snow and cold, they played and they're four to zero.
When it dips below like twenty five or twenty eight degrees.
They don't lose in those games. All that doesn't matter.
He's still got to play Kansas City. Chiefs better be
(03:31):
concerned because they're running into what may end up being
in this playoffs. In the AFC, the Baltimore Ravens are
playing the lights out defense right now as well. But
of the four teams left their own team Buffalo Baltimore.
Then the Texans have to take a backseat to nobody
when it comes to defense. So you're talking about the
(03:53):
teams that's the team that's turning you over. You're an
offense that hasn't been overly explosive this year, although you
want fifteen games, and now you're facing the team that's
coming in with momentum. They had to play every week.
When I say momentum, now the game momentum stops and
you go to a feeling of momentum confidence because you know.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
I don't believe in game the game momentum.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
I do believe in confidence, and it's gathered in the
Texans while getting I mean the Chiefs while getting arrest.
If I had to sit it, sit and watch a
little bit. Now, Andy Reid's team will be prepared and
they will be fresh and ready to go. But the
Texans defense, if it's minus eate right now, and I'm
betting today, I'm gonna wait till the end of the week.
I don't see how that line goes anywhere but towards
(04:32):
the Texans. Now, maybe I'm wrong and Vegas knows them
right now. I don't think that the Chiefs are a
touchdown and a half better than the Texans are, or
a touchdown a field goal.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
I just don't.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
So while we're gonna talk about all the things that
Texans are gonna have to do, I'm gonna tell you what.
You go ahead and f around and find out and
the Texans will keep that offense down. The opposite is
what I'm concerned about. Can you give me the same
offense next this week as you did just this Saturday if.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
You're the Texans.
Speaker 3 (05:01):
But anybody that thinks the Texans are overwhelmed by the
Chiefs offense is greatly mistaken. They played well against Golf,
they played well against against Josh Allen, they played well
against Herbert. What's not to believe they can't go And
of all, for those offenses, the Chiefs may be the
worst of the four of them when it comes to
just the numbers this year, but they're starting to pick
(05:24):
it up, and it is January and you do have
to take that into account. So I am, yes, I'm concerned.
The refs come into play because a personal foul call
on Mahomes at the fifty is the difference in a
continuing a drive or a punt. Yeah, it concerns me,
but the Chiefs. But you've got to go in knowing.
If you go in knowing that they may get two
extra series because of it, maybe you have to game
(05:46):
plan like that. You're just gonna have to be real
smart when you get around Mahomes. That's just the way
it is.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
The high on Saturday in Kansas City is twenty eight degrees,
with wins ten to twenty miles an hour, no expected,
and then in the evening it's gonna drop down to
nine degrees.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
It's not gonna be What time's that Game.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
Three kickoff on Saturday?
Speaker 3 (06:09):
They will not be They're gonna have to deal with
a lot. But you know what, and Buffalo and Baltimore
gonna be cold too if you have to go there.
And so I look at it as a great challenge
and opportunity and I think the Texans do too. Now,
if they win this game, the the the enthusiasm and
the enthusiasm in the city should enthusiasm should be through
(06:32):
the roof now because you saw what we thaw a
lot of last year. Yeah, and they're more experienced this year.
This this team knows how to win in the first round.
We'll find out if they can go deal with Kansas City.
If they can, this is gonna be a blast to watch.
But that defense will keep a minute.
Speaker 5 (06:45):
Yeah, they're playing really good football right now. Seven one three,
seven ninety Ray, Good.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Morning, than Good morning guy. How's it going, good man?
What's up?
Speaker 6 (06:56):
Hey? So you just throw my thunder on what I
was going to say. Uh, I'm gonna make a few
comments and hang up and listen as I always do.
But here's my thing with the Texans and the Chiefs.
The defense doesn't scare I mean, the defense for Kansas
City doesn't well, the defense for the Texans. Basically, they're
(07:16):
gonna they're gonna be aggressive, they're gonna do their thing.
But here's the thing. On paper, we match up with them.
The elephant on the wall is what you guys just
mentioned is the referees and them interjecting themselves into the
game to affect the outcome of the game. Here's the thing.
(07:37):
Those hits that those hits and sacks that we that
we put on on on Herbert Saturday, those are gonna
be personal files on Pat mahomes at least one or
two of them will and and and whether we like
it or not, and and it's very unfair, and to me,
it's disgusting. But they're gonna find a way. You're gonna
have to almost pull away on Kansas City to really
(07:59):
have a chance to be them, because if that game
is close in the fourth quarter, they're gonna find a
way to to to to go some yellow laundry on
the field to to in the favor of the Chiefs,
to to help them win. Run the ball with your
mixing run the ball, with with with with peers, keep
my homes on the sideline, and minimize any opportunity that
the refs have have to to basically put an effect
(08:22):
on the game. That's my that That's what I would say,
because like you guys are right, the defense are gonna
the defense is gonna keep them in it, ball control,
keep my homes on the sidelines, and and and do
it like that. You're gonna have to, but I'll hang
up with Listen, guys, you guys have a great week.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Thank you.
Speaker 6 (08:38):
Ray.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
One thing I went and raise right spot on. But
one thing I would not do is play its tafe.
I would not do that. I'm not going run, run
third and six, throw and hope we have to find
I don't think Ray's saying that, EASi, but you got
to run the football and you got to make sure
a low scoring game. I'm not so I think a
(09:00):
low scoring game favors the Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
You'd love you.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
I mean, I'm a high scoring game where the Texans
are putting out. I think the Texans offense is every
bit is capable. When we see what we did this
pass and when they're aggressive, right, Andy Reid will be aggressive.
I don't think you can win games passive in the playoffs.
But now there's a fine line between being aggressive and
being being being being an idiot with your approach to
this game plan, because if you're just going to drop
(09:25):
back and throw all the time, Spagnola wle te off,
they're gonna look for both. These coordinators on both sides
are too smart at this stage of their lives and
careers end of the season not to understand what's on
the line. But we've seen time and time again for
the Texans. You can't be afraid to be aggressive and
make a mistake. You and you sure as hell can't
(09:46):
afford to be passive and make a mistake.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Then you're double host. If you trust Droud like you
say you do, and you did.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Put the ball in his hand, get Joe Mixon involved,
and then and and us that your defense is going
to do what they do most of the time. If
you go in with a passive approach, that's when the
Chiefs will put their foot on your throat. They know
how to win these games. They've done it enough. This
is not new to them. They're prepared for it any weather,
any circumstance. They're at home. It'll be packed and rolling.
(10:17):
The Texans are going to be a heavy underdog and
be talked about as they're un borrowed time borrowed times
A perfect time in that one. You want to make
an investment when everything but everybody else is quit on
you by then, and then I can sell high. Well,
right now, everybody's buying low on now, more here now
than ever. Then last week their stock's gone up. But
nationally they're still going to say it's the Chiefs, they're
(10:39):
at home, they're rested, Mahomes is healthy, the ankle's not bothering.
If it's Andy Reid, that's the time you want to
buy stock. This is right now, What a great time
to pounce. And you already are familiar with what they do.
There's no secret, right let it go. And I do
believe they're going to need to turnover on defense or
two maybe even a defensive score.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
I think so, I think.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
But right now, if I'm betting, I'm taking those.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Points, yeah, seven and a half in those points eight.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
And it's gone and a half if it's If it
goes down even more as we get later in the week,
those folks in Vegas are telling you allow send an
a loud message.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
Let's keep talking about the Texans win against the Chargers.
Let's look at that offense. It struggled in the first half,
first quarter and a half. Let's look at it and
discuss next. Righting on Sports Talks seven and ainety
