Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to the locker room. There's a lot
of big games we have in our life, and there's
some games you can legally say what the game is,
and there's other ones you can't. We don't know in
this type of situation. So we're gonna refer to this
one as the big game, the big game, a lot
of big games. This is the biggest game. Philadelphi Eagles
versus the Kansas City Chiefs. Will Compton has done it
to himself again. He has jaced himself. The Chiefs might

(00:20):
be going after a three p but the rue game
in the Philadelphi Eagles. We are breaking down the AFC Championship.
We are breaking down the NFC Championship. Maybe even a
little whiteboard talk. As always, we have Will Compton, we
have the Landy Walker and the Man, the myth, the legend,
the Finger. Brian Baldinger joins us today. It is going
to be a hell of a time. Big hugs, tiny kisses,
Let's have a hell of a show.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
Welcome to the locker room. We are presented by Fireball Whiskey.

athlete or fan. And fireball Whiskey is here. Give you

Championship weekend boys, Baldy breakdowns, Welcome to the lockers.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
Welcome, good day to be here. There is nothing better.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
There's nothing better as a player on a Tuesday or
Wednesday afternoon, getting done with practice, going on to Twitter,
seeing one of your breaths.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
Really, let me tell you something about seventy seven here.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Let me tell you what Watch the lad Rock and
anytime you would highlight every week lad was on there week.
If I ever got blessed with a Baldy breakdown, I
would sit down and go home, show.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
Yeah on the head. You know what's funny about that him?
You know what that's interesting to me about that we
just said, is like you guys are getting all of
that in your own film room. All the guys know
your teammate told no, some fans might know. Probably not
though nobody's really getting inside the game right to that level.
But you would think that just there's you know, the
organization behind you, Derek Henry going ninety nine behind you.

(02:13):
You would think that would be enough, but sometimes you
just need a little bit more verification, a little bit
of it's a public.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
It's a public and because because every every player falls
victims to go going to that search bar, typing their
name in the Twitter and then just getting absolutely assaulted
by either your fans or opponents. And as you sit
there and it's like the whole thing about Office Lineman
is you want to be seen, not heard, right, and
so the only time your name should really be brought
up is when you mess up. So when there's a

(02:40):
guy like you, like, yeah, you go in the film room,
coaches can patch you on the ass a little bit.
Depending on the type of coach, you have to say, hey,
this is a great play right here, and all the
boys are hey, you know, compat a good game, Delny,
he played well. But when a guy like you, who's
been around the game, who has the following and stuff
like that, pulls it up, there is like a level
of like, damn, maybe I am really doing something.

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Right that it's amazing. It's the old it's that that
that old belief that you know, all ship runs downhill
right and it just rolls right into the offensive line
lap like we gotta I feel like sometimes you gotta
fight that also defensive lineman too. Dlane like it. I
feel like it all kind of goes into the trenches.
Good or bad. Usually it's bad. Yeah, Yeah, usually is bad.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
And you you give a lot of contact with the
player you're talking about to the coach.

Speaker 3 (03:21):
Ain't gonna sit there and in front.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
They got to keep you when you're doing two and
three a days. You're gonna have a coaches, you know,
it's funny about that from Duke. Look at the physicality
here from Baldy. One day, your name is gonna be
Baldy breakdowns. Guys, everybody watched this guy.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
You know.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
You know what's funny about that? Though? Will the coaches
come up to me? Like I do games every Sunday
for National Radio, so I'll get some of the assistant coaches,
defensive line coaches, like, hey, I want to let you know,
like the lineback coach from the Chiefs, because I give
those guys so much credit, you know, because they're big
Leo Chanal, Drew Tranquill, Nick Bolton and like literally like
they play three linebackers like more than any other team

(03:57):
in this whole league, Like they can't get them off
the field, And I I just want to let you
know that, you know, Leo really appreciates the things you
say about him, Like people just think he's just a
big meat head out there can't run, but like you
kind of highlight some of the things he can do. Yeah,
they want you to do it.

Speaker 2 (04:11):
They want you to be the one to vocalize the
Kings City Chiefs defense because.

Speaker 3 (04:15):
They're not going to have They're not going to go
out publicly. No, definitely would they.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
I mean, Kassy's defense has been keeping him in games
sixtewo years ago, sixteen and oh in one score game
has a lot to do with the defense, but everyone
wants to talk about Pax Mahomes, right, So you need
a crusader like yourself there to pave the way defense.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
I take it the game we want to start with
Chiefs do that that game.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
That game was the most interesting to me. So I
kind of want to like just let's get the NFC
out of the way.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
Let's let's get it out of the way.

Speaker 5 (04:44):
Like people start to finish with Super Bowl already.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
That was because you can see.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
Josh Allen, you get to see Patrick Bills and everybody
going into that game.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
For Super Bowl of all time, everybody going into that
game is like, the winner of this AFC Championship is
probably going to win win a Super Bowl. And then
you watch the NFC NFC Championship game, and if you
don't know that, the Commanders their back, you know their
last in the U in all the statistic categories of defense,
being in the in the in the Russian category. It's like, yo,
the Eagles might have a chance. But then you have

(05:14):
Spags on the other side that you're like, yo, this
guy's going to put up the perfect game plan to
eliminate the run game and have Hurts beat you and
beat you with his arm.

Speaker 3 (05:21):
So yeah, let's go.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Let's go NFC Championship First, Obviously Commanders fell.

Speaker 2 (05:27):
Yeah, I mean I look there. To me, they were
playing with house with house money. They were playing like
they've made it far. They exceeded expectations this year. You
look at when they upset the Detroit Lions in Detroit,
everybody's like, everybody's fired up for them. Oh, could they
muster up some magic and beat the Eagles. But that
game went when they gave up over from fifty points
a fifty burger to Philly, it's kind of like, yeah,

(05:47):
their luck kind of just ran out. You would have
appreciated seeing the Detroit Lions team a little bit more
in the NFC Championship because.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
They're overall better roster and a better outfit.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
It's like, you know, you're bummed, you're bummed at the
washingtondn't pull up an upset, but at the end of
the day, it's like they were they were already exceeding expectations.

Speaker 4 (06:04):
Like, yeah, it sucks, but they so much optimism.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
Those feel like you know when you get to each level.
You go up in the playoffs, now you're at the
championship level, before you're at the divisional level, right, Like
the Choice defense got exposed big time, right, Yeah, Now,
it didn't help that the offense turned over five times
and they constantly got in the field position in a touchdown.
But like, so you go up to the championship level
and you just realize the Eagles defense is just that good.

(06:29):
You can look at all the stats and say they're good,
but then you watch them play. Zach Bond doesn't miss
a tackle, doesn't is not.

Speaker 2 (06:36):
Only doesn't miss a tackle, he trust his instincts, like
just watching him as a second level player and watching
him pull his trigger and not stop his feet going
into the backfield. To make plays your full your trust
has to be at a different But what.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Will is like so Zach Bond's in New Orleans for
four years, they can't really figure out how to play.
They got the Mario Davis, they've got Warner, they got
different guys, but he's just sitting there as like a
reserve special teams got and for whatever reason, Eagles say,
let's give this guy a shot. Like all these Wisconsin
linebackers can flat out play, all of them right, and
they all been trained the right way, trained inside outside,

(07:12):
you go through the whole league, they're all good players.
This kid from day one in Philly fixed that position.
It's unbelievable. Pro bowler. He make the All Pro Yeah
pro Yeah, remember Chris Borland. Yeah yeah, there we go. Yeah,
I mean he had head issues.

Speaker 5 (07:31):
I mean nothing you can do about that when you've
got concussions constantly occurring.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
And yeah, there's no there's no doubt that.

Speaker 3 (07:38):
Would have been would have been her Big T J.

Speaker 5 (07:41):
Watt.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
You just go through all these guys.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
Yeah, yeah, so the and then the two exciting whites too.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
I mean a baller, Ryan Blankenship is Gene is a
ball Mitchell.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
It's one of those things where you turn on the
film with the Philadelphi Eagles and at the end of
every play, the opponent's offensive play, you see ten or
eleven guys in the script like they are always they're
running to the ball. They're destroying people at their defensive
line as elite who's Jalen Carter his ability to put
pressure in the middle of the offensive line and bring
pressure up to the quarterback. There's no way to step

(08:18):
into your throat. So these guys in the edges are
able just to run the hoop every single time, catch
that quarterback in nine and a half, ten eleven yards,
and it is just it's a ticking time bomb.

Speaker 3 (08:27):
Basically. They have like this is the most unbelievable stat
for their three game run so far to the Super
Bowl is they've got ten takeaways they haven't turned on.
There are plus ten in their turnover ratio in three games.
It's crazy, Like they're just punching the ball out two
weeks in a row. I mean, everybody practice it, Like
I know everybody team practice it, They preach it, they

(08:47):
talk about it. But like you just watch yes exact
Bond punch it out. You're watching Orrin Burks punching it out.
Same thing last week. Jalen Carter to you know, to
Kyrien Williams with the Rams.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Do you think there's any thing the Commanders could have
done to win that game?

Speaker 3 (09:04):
You just can't turn the ball over.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
The four turnovers stop because they can't step the run.
So it's like, okay, if you know the Commanders can't
step the run, they're going to do that the entire game.
They have Austin Eckler, he catches the ball, touches.

Speaker 3 (09:17):
They had a bad matchups, they went out, they went
and got Lattimore and Mark Seawan has been a good
player for a long time, but he's not the same
guy that he once was. When he's making Pro Bowls.
In normals, he tries to match up with a J.
Brown and Camp and you can't be making dumb mistakes to.

Speaker 5 (09:32):
A J.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
Brown.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
I mean that was a master class of chess of
just being able to bait him. Gave his head all
of a sudden. He's he gives him a big push,
hands go up, flag goes the other way.

Speaker 3 (09:41):
I thought the big thing was the question. I live
in Philly, so I hear this. You know, it's NonStop
right now. You know, Jayleen can't read the defense. Jailen
can't do this like it's just noise to him. He's
actually pretty good about blocking it all out. But you know,
he had a great day yesterday. The great day doesn't
turn the ball over. He does not put the ball
in harm's way. Well not well, throw the ball in
the middle into some zone coverage right now. He got

(10:03):
burned earlier. New Year won't do it. So he'll take
the SAT, he'll throw it away. But his decision making
is And then yesterday aj went off, you know, like
they couldn't stop him.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Yes, well you put you put guy one on one
with a single high safety and a guy's pressed on
a Browns Like, yeah, I'm gonna throw it up to
a j.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
You rememberality what didn't what? You know? Like, I'm just
gonna ask you because like Rabel said, I've never traded him. Remember,
I'm never trading this guy. But I think he's even
better now. I think he's even like because I think
he's even stronger than he used to be, and he's
just as explosive as he's ever been.

Speaker 1 (10:40):
He's he's in his stature alone. Is the way he
looks say it looks like Jane, he looks like plays like.
I mean, it goes back to the first place I
kind of drew up. We don't have to go into it.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
But it is nineteen truck.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
It's a pin pole scheme, and the number one block
on that is the pointment that's Aj. Usually you're gonna
put your why in that position to block down on
a defensive end. That's how that's how much trust they
have on a J two block. Knowing Aj Aj is
like an edge rusher. He wants sacks, and he's.

Speaker 3 (11:10):
Blocking Dante Yeah, and Foul spins and he stands in
front of hips, his feet keeps his and if everything
else just gets washed and.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
Gets washed, he squin has to go back into the middle.
And then you can't get to the alley because Dante
Fowler spins out of that and Aj is able to
use his hips and his feet and drive him at
a forty five yure angle. That's why Bobby Wagner gets
caught up in the fray because that's a four they
win that play. Later it's a four or five yard player.
Wagner and Luvu don't get caught up all the mess.
He's able to do that, Like that's such a key

(11:43):
block that no one's really going to talk about, but
that says a lot about agent because he is. And
then you know, a quarter later he hits a go ball,
catches a nice little thirty yard or then he gets
touch still touchdown, and then he's baiting guys into It's
like that, Like I don't know exactly what a J.
Brown stats were, but there, whatever stats were, he played
better than a stats show.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Yeah he had like six catches six Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
He had a one hundred and fifties. He played like
he had one hundred.

Speaker 3 (12:08):
But even when he's reading a book on the sideline,
which is hilarious, which isliious. I mean, I've never seen it.
I don't know, will you guys anything like that, But
even when he's reading the book on the sideline, the
guys still making unbelievable blocks, Like he's not getting the ball,
they're not throwing to him, but he's still blocking his asshole. Yeah,
that was That was the first time I've ever seen

(12:29):
that first time.

Speaker 6 (12:30):
Ever, But you ever brought a prop to the to
a game before the drop, Like during Halloween, you were
like Halloween mass Yeah, yeah, Halloween massuf.

Speaker 3 (12:41):
But I don't know if be like pulling his book
out just.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
Sitting right there and then just casually because no one
that the cameras on, cameras on, no one, the cameras
are on.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
I mean, yeah, but good for him, because there's going
to be something about that. I mean, the production of
the show is inner excellence. And then they're going this
whole spinoff of.

Speaker 3 (13:03):
The funny thing. The page that he's got, it's all highlighted.
He's got the highlighted pen out there, it's all highlighted.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
They sure and get back to this way back to
the house to see.

Speaker 3 (13:11):
If the ball game is why the reader they brought
up Rabel.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
I think when we go to media days and think
A good question for aj Well when they sit at
the booth is do you credit your success to John
Robinson for trading you?

Speaker 3 (13:26):
Did you ask him? Now?

Speaker 1 (13:27):
No, I think we should ask. I mean that trade
trailing Brooks they take, they trade for the eighteenth pick,
they give a J. Brown, they take trailing Brooks eighteen overall,
and no disrespect to Trailer. He's got all the tools
and everything. I'm not sure he's had a couple of
injuries stuff like that. But the reality is is he
and I have the same amount of touchdowns in the NFL, right,
and so that's tough.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Well. He The thing that's interesting about that moment in
time is this is where the Eagles are just better
than everybody else. They make the trade, they do the compensation,
and they give him a contract all in like literally
the same moment. One fail like the Tennessee couldn't figure
out how to give him the extension. That's all he wanted,
right like the old players. So they get to trade,
the compensation and the contract done all at once, which

(14:09):
is wild.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
They can't figure can't figure out the compensation on the
Titans end, because yeah, you pay a quarterback, yeah, but
you're not paying the quarterback had one hundred million dollar contract,
not a three hundred million dollar cord. Like you could
move a whole bunch of stuff on. I know if
they called me and hey, Taylor, can we just front
pay a minimum?

Speaker 3 (14:25):
Hell yeah? Yeah? Though, like he just got low balled
at first and took it personal. He took a person
person he didn't want to be here. That's just behind it.
But the other thing is all these other receivers are
getting paid. So he's like, you know, I mean, it's
just it's really you just fall in line. Like they
all got paid, all of them. So AJ is like, okay,
what about my back?

Speaker 5 (14:46):
Yeah, well, I think they looked at Derek Harry as
the horse, so the horse, but.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
Still didn't pay him very much.

Speaker 3 (14:52):
They did it.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
The shitty thing for for Derek is he got caught
up in that running backs are dead, that little that.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
I think it's over.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
I mean, you see the market, the Marcus Hope, he
takes a jump because these teams are going to everyone,
the whole call everyone, Aaron Jones, you.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
Know, Josh Jacobs, Henry like all those guys went somewhere
else and have had massive success.

Speaker 3 (15:15):
And we've seem like the comeback of the run game
like all these teams. I mean, I know, Kansas City
still comes out of the tunnel throwing it, but Eagles
ran a fifty seven percent of the time, like you know,
you got sake one. It helps, you know, but still
like Baltimore Detroit, all these teams are running it far
more than they were throwing it.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
Were you guys surprised that uh Washington didn't go for
it on that opening drive on fourth down?

Speaker 5 (15:39):
Yeah, if you win twice already, why are you just
still go for the last one just to get it.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
It seems like they were caught and like, Okay, we're
gonna be gutsy, we're gonna be ballsy, which they've They've
gone from fourth down more than neither two in the NFL.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
They do it two times in one drive.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
Yeah, I don't know if they think for themselves, like
dan Quinn's like, all right, our looks probably ran out here,
Let's take the points. We're in a good we're in
a favorite.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
He's probably thinking, too, Will be able to do this
all game, like if she was gonna win that game,
they're gonna have to do it kind of the way
they beat the Lions, like kind of stay up in
points and everything else, because their defense clearly going to
be able to stop the Eagles.

Speaker 3 (16:11):
Well, I think that's the point, Will is. If you
hand it off to Saquon on the play that you're
talking about behind us for sixty yards in the first
player like this might be a long day. We better
score touchdowns. Field goals aren't gonna get it done, right. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
So you're saying that the Eagles had the first drive
as opposed to the Commanders, right yeah, probably Yeah, where
you see him start to panic around the third or
fourth drive that they had. They go three and out
and you're like, man, this is about to get out
of hand, and they run the fake punt.

Speaker 3 (16:38):
Crazy.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
I look at my phone, I hear something scream.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
Oh oh ship okays Away is one of those cats.
He's a paunter, but he's the most athletic guy in
the break throw when you're when you're playing, when you're playing,
when you're playing well football.

Speaker 3 (16:55):
He's the best ping pong player the Chargers. No, that's
Dustin Hopkins.

Speaker 4 (16:59):
No, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
But there was a guy I thought he was at
the Charges when we went there for their training camp.
You were like, I play with this guy at the Redskins.
He was He's good at everything.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
That's that's Hopkins. But he was he was second. He
was like he was underneath Tressway. Trustway is a dog.

Speaker 2 (17:14):
His wife was an All American softball player at the
University of Oklahoma.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
They have brothers.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
I'm talking pictures they got like Trestway's got it when
he made that play, there's there's He's not even worried
about that throw like that was. He's probably grinning when
he's throwing the ball. He's such an athlete, I'm telling you, bro,
he's athletic. Talking about a punter right now.

Speaker 3 (17:42):
He was going to make that almost couldn't wait to
throw it, kind of carry out a little bit of
your punt action. He was like, I got this.

Speaker 4 (17:49):
You know every weekend, the specially coaches asking and you
think you would be good.

Speaker 3 (17:53):
He's just like dog, just a perfect just a perfect
high pass. Nice way you want it. Yeah. The thing
that's funny about that play is psychotic. Huh, it's psychotic
what it is?

Speaker 5 (18:09):
They did not know it was coming a little.

Speaker 3 (18:16):
As soon as he went by him, he knew like
he started looking back, he start looking for the ball
as soon as he beat them, was like.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
Bing based off Will everything Will said that that backup
tight end was shitting himself, sling this motherfucker out here.

Speaker 3 (18:30):
Nothing but they make noise with this, yeah, going going.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
Just the commanders, amazing year for them, the turn around,
the fat we've talked about the show a couple of times.
But all this stuff with the head office, the owner,
they end up selling the team and go in and
make it to the NFC Championship. Like they were playing
with house money. They didn't have the defense he had
done this year.

Speaker 3 (18:47):
But they got they got the quarterback. Like you get
the quarterback there's only there's never even when this was
a twelve team league, there wasn't enough good quarterbacks, right,
and so like they got the quarterback and like he
fixes everything the run game. You get a backup right
guard in there, you know, like it doesn't matter, like
they had a Brookie left tackle this year. If there's
breakdowns to protection, he covers for him. If it's fourth down,

(19:08):
he runs for it, extends it. Like you see, McCarry
has been in this league for six years. He's never
had a year like this. Never like he set a
record for touchdowns by commander. Yeah, yeah, I saw something
on Instagram and I have to work through this.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
But like all these mobile quarterbacks now are able to
run because of that Cam Newton Tim Tebow era where
it was like not everyone was still so used to
the Tom Brady Peyton manning up the statute quarterback. And
these guys come in like Tim Tebow obviously didn't work
out in the NFL, but he had Johnny Manziel as well,
like that kind of era of like hey, let's get
Andrew Luck.

Speaker 3 (19:42):
Get these guys. They can show a little mobility, they
can do a little bit more than just.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
Throwing the football. Now you're seeing all like these Jaden
Daniels Lamars, the Patrick mahomes Is, the Josh Allens, like
they are. They lean a lot on their offense, on
their legs as opposed to just their arm.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Well, the NFL can only take what the college game
gives you, So the college games give you these guys.
They're not giving you Tom Brady anymore, like that guy
who's in college. They're putting their best athletes at quarterback.
So that's one thing, and then the other thing is
just talking to guys around the league because of these
guys are just so lethal as soon as they break
the pocket, Like it's changed the way you rush the passer.

(20:16):
I think you're getting a lot more cage rushing now,
Like you watch Chris Jones rush like he could probably
win on the edge a lot more than But like
they're content Jalen Carter. These guys are content right now,
Delaney to like literally walk their man and try and
keep that guy in the pocket and contain rush rather
than the quick swims or the quick escapes. You know

(20:37):
sometimes you know, you get the stunts that are working,
you know, to get the guys there. But I think
we're seeing a difference in the way a defensive linement
a rushing. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:47):
And I think it's a good transition to go to
the AFC Championship game because a lot of these bigger plays.
Patrick Mahomes in one or two reads and he sees
big holes and the AB or C gap kind of
wiggled his way through there will get big chunk plays.

Speaker 3 (20:59):
Out of that.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
We all know that Patrick Mahomes can be a little
bit lethal with the ball in his hands running it.
Why aren't teams cage rushing similarly they do the Baltimore
Ravens or the Well.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
What's interesting yesterday, Taylor is that in the first game
that they won, they spied Mahomes and in that game
he didn't have one run like they spied him Dorian Williams,
Terrel Bernard yesterday didn't find him at all, and as
soon as he knows you don't have a guy that
can chase them, like he takes off with it when
he sees it. And he got all those first downs
and to you know, two rushing touchdowns, two rushing touchdowns.

Speaker 1 (21:33):
And also, like you bring up like every team runs
the ball a whole lot except for the Chiefs. That
the Chiefs are using their short pass game as their
run down. As they're running, they just.

Speaker 3 (21:43):
Basic West Coast offense. And Kareem Hunt does a hell
of a job. Hell of a job.

Speaker 1 (21:47):
But even in the in the middle of that game,
quarter third and even in the fourth, like Kareem Hunt,
he started get stopped a little bit. Pa Checko was
kind of not even around that game until those last
couple of plays in the four minutes. Like a lot
of those chunks that were taken out aside from that
first quarter in the second half of the second quarter
was Mahomes getting out of the pocket, running, making it

(22:09):
dancing a little bit and getting the two rushing touchdowns.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
Did you think like the Bills in that third quarter,
they just started running the ball, like right down the field,
the ran one throw, one throw right eight runs the
and they ran for the touchdown. Did you think like
they were taking over the game at that point. At
that point I did, I did.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
I think, Yeah, you start to impose your will the
way they did, I thought. And it wasn't like exotic
type of nuns.

Speaker 3 (22:31):
It was zone, it was mid zone.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
It hand the ball off. There was nothing creative about it.
They were just taking their physicality against the young physicality
and they were handling business.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
That drive that they had almost tells you that they
should have started off like they did such a good
job throughout the year. It's like last week when they
played Baltimore, Josh Allen went threw for like one eighty
and they were great on the ground. If that's such
a good bounce attack all year long. They come out
those first two drives and Josh are trying to sling
it and you can tell whether it's nerves moment, he's
having some lackluss, he's fumbling this snap. But if you're

(23:04):
running the football the way that the Buffalo could run
the football this year with Joe Brady's the OC like
you can tell on that third quarter drive they got
away from that in the first quarter. They should have
probably established it in the beginning of the game, like
they've kind of done.

Speaker 3 (23:17):
All very long.

Speaker 1 (23:17):
Their first two drives are the same way. They ran
it on first down they got three four yards. The
second drive they ran on first down and got three
four yards. Then they threw it two separate times after that.
But you could see you could see the pressure mounting
in Josh Allen's head those first couple of drives and
didn't allow him to settle down. They're trying to take
chunk plays. Yeah, and I know, like Joe, I like,
I'm excited to see if the Chiefs can do a

(23:39):
three p I'm gutted for the Buffalo Bills. I want
it for the Bills. I want it for Josh Allen.

Speaker 3 (23:43):
He's been on the base. He's an awesome cat. He's
like a dude's dude type of dude the man.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
I really just want him to get over this hump
because I think they could really get it done if
they can just get past the Chiefs. But you can
see it that he's wearing all that pressure, all that
weight on his shoulders. Like the whole week leading up,
the mainstream media US we're like, hey, who has more pressure, Chiefs,
the three people or the Bills to beat the chiefs
and everyone's kind of leaning going, Hey, bills versus the chiefs.
That's that's the thing.

Speaker 3 (24:07):
And you see it in his face.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
So if you were able to just get a couple
of throws out, even if it's like a bubble scree
at the ball at your hand, how does it feel
slinging a little bit?

Speaker 3 (24:14):
And they got that. They were really they got stuffed
on that one fourth and one. It just killed them. Yeah, yeah,
the one that was controversial, Yeah that was a first down.
But so that was the first So it's weird. Will
So a couple of years ago, I remember we were
having a seminar back when the Eagles first started the
whole you know, tush push thing right, So should they

(24:36):
outlaw it? Should they keep it right? So they said, well,
I asked the official, like Mike Prayer, I said, you know,
how do you officiate this play? Because it seemed like
the whistle never blows And they said, like on that
play he started going sideways. They said, as soon as
they start going sideways and you're not going forward, the
whistle should blow. They should stop the momentum. And so

(24:56):
he did start because he he kind of went through
the left guard hole there kind of moved it and
then he started getting pushed Chris Jones. The guys started
pushing them. But I don't know, like, I don't know
how to I don't know how they get that play right.
Sometimes with the Buffalo Bills, they suck at running that.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
The Chiefs looked at him and Spags goes, hey, every
single time he's gonna take the snap, he's gonna take
a shuffle to the left, and he's.

Speaker 3 (25:20):
Gonna go up the middle. But either way.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
But the defense, the defense has, you know, the majority
of their guys gapping out A, B and C on
the left side. It's like they knew what he was
going to do.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
But the Eagles get like.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
Blocks are different.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
That's what I'm saying. The Bills suck at running it.
They have their one running back back there to push him.
He doesn't even really push them. Josh just tries like
going to the left and do it in himself.

Speaker 3 (25:47):
He got like three guys behind Victory dull like the
Bills almost the one time Josh went up and over
and he can fumble. That's why you don't go up
and over like I don't even know if he got
it backward out the ball was out getting the ball
back on that one.

Speaker 4 (26:07):
But you guys don't think so you're saying he got
You're saying it wasn't a first down.

Speaker 1 (26:10):
I'm saying that that call could have gone either way.
Whatever it was called in the field, it should have
it should have stood. They called it as it was turnover.

Speaker 3 (26:18):
Did you not see those referees running like.

Speaker 4 (26:23):
And then they go backwards a little bit, get out
of the way.

Speaker 3 (26:27):
Sideways once he got pushed.

Speaker 2 (26:28):
Saying one guy was saying it was the first running.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
There's no question, like they came in opposite. Yeah, they
was on the line.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
The other one was inside the line. The one that
was on the line over one that would have given
the first down. Chiefs player in the way, he has
to move around that and when he re establishes his walk,
he's in a complete different spot.

Speaker 3 (26:48):
I get it.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
I understand that.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
But but I'm just saying that I think the entire
year of the Chiefs, this team could get away with murder.

Speaker 1 (26:55):
That's referee, That's where That's where I'm sitting back on.
Let's let's pump the brakes, because I agree the entire
year the Chiefs have had calls go their way one
hundred times, every like every single time chefs this game.
If I were to say, hey, you're gonna be one
like U one for five on third down on short

(27:19):
yards third down, you're gonna go You're gonna go h
for two and two point conversions. You're gonna have your
first drive is gonna be you could have thrown two
picks in three plays, and the Chiefs had the most
razor sharp first drive I've ever seen. If I were
to tell you that without giving you context, which team
is going to win the team that has a razor
sharp first drive. I mean, it's not like the Bills
were just like having massive chunk plays and then they

(27:40):
were getting called back or they would.

Speaker 3 (27:42):
That at all. But you you murder a drive because
that is a pivotal point in the game.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
The pivot point of the game, and that are in
a pivot point of the game. When Josh Allen has
that incredible throw I can't remember the receiver's name, he
makes a great catch and the flag comes out, my
first thought was here we go chief stuff. That call
was on the Chiefs defense, and so it's like it
seemed like they were calling it equal, if not over

(28:07):
correcting a little bit against the Chiefs, like we kind
of talked about before.

Speaker 3 (28:10):
That's what the one stat that stills out there, Tayler.
I think it's it's it's correct too. In the three
Super Bowl wins the Chiefs have, they don't have one
holding call. They don't have one holding call by any
offensive line.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
They had a bunch that against the lost the Tampa
Bay and then the one against the Eagles, where was
ticky tech And it's again, by the book, it's a
cret call.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
But that little hole, that little ground.

Speaker 2 (28:30):
Was Yeah, when they kind of got them a couple
of years ago, that was extremely controversial, like it was
a ticky tack call.

Speaker 4 (28:37):
But also it's like, yeah, if you go buy the
buy the book, that technically is a penal.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
It blows my mind.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
Man.

Speaker 3 (28:44):
And here we are again.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
Here we are again.

Speaker 3 (28:47):
We are.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Unless there's a meteor, the Chiefs are probably going to
be Super Bowl champions.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
Personally, Personally, I think I'm taking the Chiefs. I think
I think I'm but the Eagles the way he was
explaining it to them defensively, like this is a different
this is a different team. And if you look at
the if you look at the Chiefs. They've only scored
over thirty points like two games this year last that
was one of them.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
Like they have they don't have this high powered offense. Like, well,
the one thing that Eagles eliminate is your quick game.
Any hitches, any screams outside they you know, there was
an old saying like you step up to clean it up,
you back up, you give it up. Like their rookies
quinyon Cooper de Jene, like it doesn't matter who it is,
Like they attack all those plays, right, and they attacked
him yesterday, like they didn't get anything off those quick screens.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
You see that play that Cooper Dejeene made. It was
either Cooper or Ryan. I can't tell the whites out there,
but they were in the they were in the yeah, yeah,
but they were in that bunch and they threw a
quick screen out to the outside of Cooper Dejien is
the only guy on the point. Man just kind of
throws Crowder aside and mix the play in the back. Well,
that was a two point conversion. Yeah, that was a
two point That was two point conversion. I think there
was another one in the middle of the field.

Speaker 3 (29:58):
Well, he makes it where he they got the fumble.

Speaker 5 (30:03):
It was the fumble because yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
The announcers go, well, he is known for having little hands.
I'm thinking, man, yeah, they go. Echo has always had
of trouble with the receiving because.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
But Crowder, if the receiver crowded just blocks or gets
in the way of Cooper, Cooper is just by himself
down there and makes a play by him.

Speaker 3 (30:26):
He got a defense, man, they have a defense. They
have incredible He lines up in a too deep shell
every play and then you don't know what they're doing
until the snap, like he just keeps you guessing not
did he give you anything away.

Speaker 1 (30:40):
That's the most exciting thing watching football now is the
chess game between two coordinators.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
I agree in it a lot.

Speaker 1 (30:49):
And in the AFC Championship, you could see them kind
of look over the side, you see the shell and
they're going in their checking place. They're coming back, they're
reloading the play like that's a fun pre style thing
to watch.

Speaker 3 (30:59):
But that's so that's you know, you're gonna get a
lot of that Super Bowl cent You have spags here,
you have kell more like they're gonna be that. That's
the chess match right there. He's got the smallest play sheet.
You know, he's like some people got in New Jersey,
you know, diner right there, they're calling plays from Spags
had the sheet that's like half of this right here.
Was like, how many different pressures do you have on there? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (31:19):
Well, and to dial up that corner blitz on that
fourth down for Josh All, who, by the way, put
like hero throw.

Speaker 3 (31:26):
Hey, that's one thing that we're missing here is should
have caught that Reactions reactions like once you watch the
replayer like, oh he should have picked that ship.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
I'm like now to go into I don't think this
game was a fly like was for the Chiefs from
an NFL standpoint the way we've been seeing it the
entire year. But you did see in that play King
Kate he almost caught the ball and a flag came
out and.

Speaker 3 (31:57):
They picked they picked it up because we know what
the flag was.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
It was it to.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
The super Bowl. As soon as he didn't catch it,
they wiped it off. Yeah yeah, because.

Speaker 2 (32:14):
Taylor Swift like effect, I think you got to homes
and I think last year is too much money.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
This year, I feel like it's more three p effects.

Speaker 5 (32:24):
You know, how many people gonna go to the game,
and I mean she's going you know how many fans
are about to be at the game again?

Speaker 3 (32:30):
Like Las Vegas?

Speaker 5 (32:31):
Last year, Las Vegas was like eleven they made eleven
billion in one day, bro, And.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
You just put it in Vegas every year, every year.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
You guys, you guys, you guys think this this matchup
is kind of the worst one for viewership.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
Well, we talked about it last week.

Speaker 4 (32:46):
Why fatigue because you got you just got the Chiefs
and you got the Eagles.

Speaker 3 (32:49):
It's like to twice and what three years? Three years
fan base crazy were there? If the Bill.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
You put up that map for America, it's like who's
cheering for who? And it'll be like Chiefs red, Eagles
are green, and then like gray is just like the
like whoever else it's like Chiefs where the Chiefs are
the Eagles, and then everybody else is like we don't
really care.

Speaker 3 (33:10):
Yeah, like you would have loved to see the Bills.
Everybody commander.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
What's going off the Bills In the early nineties when
they went to four Super Bowls in a row. The
continued story of that is every team they lost to
is from the NFC East. So the Bills would have
been playing an NFC East That is sick.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
I did not know that.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
Yeah, they had. They lost the Dallas twice Washington, and
then what was the was Dallas the third? They lost
the Dallas. Dallas went to the Super Bowl a lot
in the nineties. Yes, but the Dallas went back to
back Super Bowls. Then they they the command Redskins beat
them in Minnesota that year. And then I forget who

(33:49):
their fourth defeat was. Did the Giants? Was it the
Giants go in the early nineties? No, you got LT
just saying hey, you got LT. They probably Yeah, they
went nineteen ninety the Giants one right down the Giants. Ye, yeah,
that was the first one. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:06):
Heartbroken for the Bills man, Yeah, Harbor was most happy
for the Commanders in a completely different sense. But they
got smiles in their faces this morning when we get
the trash bags out in the locker.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
Yeah. Mean you got Jane Daniels there, Yeah, I mean
the only person.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
I mean Bobby Widen And I feel bad for him
because he might he could be done.

Speaker 3 (34:21):
He probably he'd probably be done or not. He won't
be with he got one he got two, right, Yeah,
he got one or did he get one with the Rams.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
I was just thinking that, But they didn't go that year.

Speaker 5 (34:32):
No, No, I don't think so.

Speaker 3 (34:33):
That was last year. That was last year. I don't
think so. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:36):
Man, both great, I mean not both great games. That
AFC Championship was let me tell you, let me ask
you this. When was it the Bills ring to play
and then they someone challenged it? No, the Chiefs werean
to play. Then they ran another play and then they
decided to challenge the.

Speaker 3 (34:53):
Previous Yeah, yeah, I didn't. I didn't understand. I don't
understand that. All that's rule penalty on that play because
if there's a penalty on the play, then the play
doesn't count.

Speaker 1 (35:03):
So that was the play that worthy came down catch,
It came down ball, ends up touching, but it was
defensive holding on whoever's covering Kelsey. I think was the
more handlet. Yes, so they run another play. I believe
it's incomplete or it's a touch. I can't remember the results.
And Buffalo challenges, but Buffalo challenges where it was an

(35:24):
interception or not. But it's like that doesn't it doesn't matter.
It would have been a penalty. Either way, you're getting
a new set of downs. Regardless, it was a very
weird sequence events.

Speaker 3 (35:32):
Do you recognize that no tweet? But I wasn't. That
catch was unbelievable though the catches Was that a catch?

Speaker 1 (35:40):
Ball hit the ground?

Speaker 3 (35:41):
Did he hit the ground? Yeah? Oh?

Speaker 1 (35:42):
They when they showed that tip of the ball hits
the ground and Worthy's got one hand on it, and
then the defensive player has two hands on it.

Speaker 3 (35:49):
I forget Baldy could be compromised. What do you mean
he's with the NFL network that you might have to
say like, oh yeah, I just right, it was a catch.
I don't know right here will I just like I'm
questioning the same things. Man.

Speaker 1 (36:10):
So you think, like obviously Philly has the recipe to
beat the Chiefs.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
Oh yeah, so you think I said? I said on
a podcast before the playoffs started that the Eagles go
four to oh in the postseason. Like I thought they
were just better in the trenches than everybody. They do have,
like just look at this, Like their center has got
a bad back, all right, who knows? Jargon's got one
of these like he needs he's probably gonna get an operation.
I don't know, Like, but it's bad. So he doesn't

(36:36):
play so now they move the left guard to center.
Right said, he gets hurt, like he's limping, he's on
one leg. He can't even stand up right, So now
they got to put Jurgons back in the game. You're
playing a second year left guard. Like this stuff has
been going on throughout the year, like nothing matters, Like
they just still keep Like most offensive lines, if they
lose a guy or two guys like they fall.

Speaker 1 (37:00):
Usually your sixth guy is an adequate football player, but
you lose a lot of I don't want to beat
this struggles. I know a lot of seven and eighth guys,
but like that seventh to eighth guy on your offensive
line is like, we got to get through a game
with this guy. We got to get through a game.
But it seems like the Eagles can just kind of
keep him coming.

Speaker 3 (37:14):
Well they McKay becked him right, who's spent three injury
marge years with the Jets. Yeah, bit of a bust.
All of that. He's never played guard in his life.
Nobody ever asked him to play guard. Didn't know if
he could play guard. He goes in there, guy's he's
a Pro Bowl guard to me, Like, I don't seen
nobody beats him and he's his power is like unmatched.

Speaker 1 (37:32):
He's a different he's a different type of human being.
And you're talking about trunches in run game, like what
you need to win a championship on the offense side
of the ball. That Eagles have that over Chiefs.

Speaker 2 (37:40):
And if you had a quarterback who's not going to
turn the ball over and he doesn't have to be
superman to win the game.

Speaker 3 (37:46):
So if you look at Jalen Hurts, me everything I got,
chief then you if you take Jalen Hurts out of
that last Commander game week sixteen where he got he's
thirteen and oh his in that run thirteen and oh
since the bye week and he's thrown one interception in
those thirteen games.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
The yeah, the Eagles, you're going Chiefs, aren't you? Well probably, yeah,
I'm going to go Chiefs. But to argue against that,
just for the sake of conversation, the Eagles seem like
they were playing that game knowing they were winning the
game the whole entire time. The move with Jurgons keeping him,
he was there and just in case of emerger, he
goes in. Yeah, he ends up going in landon Dickerson
he's like he knows he's got he's got a play

(38:27):
to help Jurgerons out because the two to go to
the Super Bowl, Saquon Barkley. They pull him out at
the right time. But all of Jalen hurts the runs.
A lot of times you've seen him lower the shoulders
and fight for extra yards. Anytime the play was over for.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
Him slid down. It was it was one year going
to be help.

Speaker 1 (38:41):
Yeah, and that that's where you could see Philly having
it like Kellen Moore versus Bags, Well, what do you bags?

Speaker 3 (38:50):
It's hard to blitz the way Spags does if you're
just running the ball down their throats. That is true.
You just stay with it kind of Again, the.

Speaker 1 (38:56):
Chiefs have the athletes on the yes, they have the
athletes in the outsie to match up one on one
with their receivers and so you're able to load that
box a little bit more.

Speaker 2 (39:04):
Yeah, but this is a different offensive line too. Like
a lot of times, it's like you can almost overload
one side. Put put Chris Jones by himself somewhere else.
Who you're gonna match Chris Jones up against probably gonna
be somebody from the inside because it is gonna be
Lane Johnson's gonna be my allotta like they got they
have such a gaff.

Speaker 3 (39:18):
I'm the Chiefs.

Speaker 1 (39:19):
I'm gonna tell Chris Jones, hey, you're not playing. You're
playing on the outside unless we're in these packages, but
you're still on the inside. You're running rushing against those.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
That's where it goes. Though. He goes where he thinks
he can win. I don't think he thinks he can
beat Malata or Lane, right, so he'll stay inside. Probably
when did it was?

Speaker 1 (39:33):
It was JJ Watt the first person that started doing
that where he would kind of go down the line
on the five and say, oh, hey, who's having a
Bruce Smith?

Speaker 3 (39:40):
But before that, Bruce Smith did that. Bruce Smith, Yeah,
he'd got a guy. Remember one time I had to
go in and play center. I was in Indianapolis. We
played him twice a year and like the center got hurt.
So I go from guard to center and as soon
as I get there, Bruce Smith comes to visit me.
You know, like I'm snapping and a shotgun on the
first play and Bruce is like cock on my snapping hand. Yeah,

(40:01):
and I'm like ship this.

Speaker 1 (40:03):
Mother, get back as quick, pop in the in the
middle of the forehead back to the quarterback speaking pops
of the four Jaalen car, Oh my god, and also
just binking the what was it the steps w w
E like just yeah, He's.

Speaker 3 (40:22):
Like, I'll take the penalty. Took the center down. He's
so violent. Showed the play this morning, like they had
a play where they were gonna wham him with the
with the running back. He literally jumped over the waver,
jumped over the the wham like I've seen tackles do
everything in his business plane. I haven't seen a tackle
jump over a block like that. He's like in mid air,

(40:44):
like off the turn bar.

Speaker 1 (40:45):
Whim is the dumbest play to me, I hate the hate.
I think it's so My experience with the whim is
t f ls. It's always a tend or a full
back trying to slash the nose. They get in and
bounced off.

Speaker 3 (41:00):
And then that was a big Belichick plays when they
went on that Super Bowl run, they were a big day.

Speaker 5 (41:08):
You're for the wamr a lot too when I was there.

Speaker 1 (41:11):
I love my I love power, I love counter, I
love perimeter plays.

Speaker 3 (41:15):
Yeah, but that wham everybody has his play now it's
called I called triple trap double scoop. So you have
you have the wham block, you have the guard block,
and you have the tackle blocking out, so you get
three three traps and then you have the two inside
scoops on the linebackers and like, I just see this
play getting busted and pop like left and right. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (41:34):
There's a lot of times too when you're in the
zone scheme and you just have a tighten and sift
across your eyes as a backer, everybody's looking to go
get back, get back, and then once people catch you
on the wams start coming into the equation because it
emulates the tight end going across your send back to
the other guy. But really against the wham, you have
to go straight down that tackle.

Speaker 5 (41:54):
Well, it depends, it depends ours depends who you wham
and what technique they was in. That's the That's what
the Titans made it more difficult because we had to
read the technique. We will motion and cross and be like, okay,
I got the three, Now you gotta wham that three.
But if it was if he wasn't in the three,
you wham what the nose? Yeah, So it was like
you had to know who to wham.

Speaker 1 (42:15):
Right when you're an emotion going across and sometimes in
your emotion they bumped.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
So yeah, so that used to throw you.

Speaker 5 (42:21):
I just kind of wait to see who the line
was gonna let free.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
I love teams to do basic things, elite with a
little bit of windows, a couple of emotions, slash a guy.
At the end of the day, you're running inside zone,
you're running duo dose, those types of things.

Speaker 3 (42:39):
That's awesome.

Speaker 1 (42:39):
It's also the world I grew up in, where you're
making basic things look a little bit more exactly at
the end of the day, it's this play.

Speaker 3 (42:45):
That's the stuff that I like. A lot of cheese
out there in this world. Man, a lot of big game.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
Where are you going? Chiefs favored by one and a half.
The over under on this game is forty nine and
a half. I'm taking the Chiefs, Chiefs. I'm taking the Chiefs.

Speaker 3 (42:58):
We know your because I want to see a repeat.
I love to see it.

Speaker 1 (43:04):
It's history.

Speaker 3 (43:05):
It's uh.

Speaker 1 (43:06):
We walked into the AFC Championship and I said, I
want the Bills to win this game. And if the
Bills don't win, I'm going for the Chiefs.

Speaker 3 (43:11):
I'm going for the Chiefs. My worst case scenario was
Chiefs Eagles. Is the is the last three peat in
any sport? Was it the Lakers? Did the Lakers win
three championships in a row? I'm not guys, oh a, yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
Fireball The ball z Pro Pick of the Week is
sponsored by Fireball fire Balls. A perfect shot for game day,
whether you're buying the Sneaky Litt Shooters before going into
the stadium or going big with the Fireball cake for
your tailgate. Whether it's a pre game shot and the
tailgate lot or a celebratory touchdown shot at the bar.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
No matter what, it's guaranteed doing Nichel game day.

Speaker 1 (43:45):
Another thing about the Chiefs too, is I love a
good story. I love storylines. And the thought of Travis
Kelcey hanging it up after this game, achieving the first
thing ever in the NFL in NFL history.

Speaker 3 (43:55):
That's special to me. I mean, dude, he's gotta retire,
he retire iron after this year.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
You look at Jason Kelsey, you get a dynasty bro
Like you look at Jason Kelsey.

Speaker 3 (44:07):
If you go back, would you play one less year?

Speaker 5 (44:10):
It's different with Jason. Jason was in the trenches. I
feel like Kelsey still got a couple of more years
in them.

Speaker 3 (44:16):
He might. He definitely feels a lot better with Jason.

Speaker 1 (44:18):
Yeah, I'm saying at the same time, he's like he's
got too two receptions last.

Speaker 3 (44:23):
Yame be the only person not really like. But he's
got the record for the most postseason touchdowns, no doubt.

Speaker 1 (44:29):
No, he's a first off, but he's just the greatest
time of all times. That doesn't think he's achieved all
of the things. Why not go out on a three
point well?

Speaker 3 (44:36):
Yeah, I mean I do think some people can stay
at the party too long. Yeah. And the fact that
him and his brother got all these things set up,
you know, production, he got billion dollars from Pier.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
I mean the commercial he's got so much money is
an issue for the biggest star in the world.

Speaker 3 (44:54):
No, I mean he could just go be the you know,
the next action hero whatever they're going to do with them. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (44:59):
I just you've done it all, man, You've done it all,
You've achieved it all.

Speaker 3 (45:03):
Like, why not? That's definitely a discussion. Yeah, have this
game's got Eagles all over it.

Speaker 1 (45:08):
Yeah, and that's why everyone watching, that's why you go
cheap I should line of scrimmage.

Speaker 2 (45:15):
I like the Eagles defense. I like the Eagles running game.
I like the Eagles. The only thing that is up
for argument is really the quarterback position. They got Patrick Mahomes,
but Jalen Hurts again to this point, thirteen games, one interception,
you got somebody who doesn't turn the ball over. You're
not gonna really stop Saquon barklaying this rushing attack. In
my opinion, maybe they might. They do have a good
run defense, but I just feel like all like you

(45:37):
look at the perma players on the outside, Devonte Smith,
A J. Brown, you got the right end, got her like,
they just have so many weapons.

Speaker 3 (45:45):
Their roster is better.

Speaker 4 (45:46):
And I know again to me, you get caught up
in the fascination of three peat and everything else.

Speaker 3 (45:50):
Thiss got Eagles. Who do you think the biggest star
of this game is? Do you think it's Mahomes or
do you think you Couon Barkley? And February ninth, guess
what Saquon bark his birthday is? Yeah, what's your tenor age? What?
Twenty eight?

Speaker 1 (46:05):
Born in ninety seven? I saw the same thing born
in ninety.

Speaker 3 (46:07):
Seven, So whatever that is, okay? Twenty eight, twenty years old,
twenty eight still got.

Speaker 5 (46:13):
It young, but not just bro I mean traveling third
or two.

Speaker 3 (46:19):
No, Travis is older than me.

Speaker 1 (46:21):
He's yeah, no, he's thirty six thirty Oh okay, yeah,
who you got, Donny?

Speaker 3 (46:26):
Eagles. I know I shouldn't go against the Chiefs.

Speaker 5 (46:29):
I've said this multiple times, but again, I think the
Eagles are the better team here.

Speaker 1 (46:34):
You you never bet against the champ until the champ gives.

Speaker 3 (46:37):
You a reason against Trust me. We say this every week.
Say what happens every week? I lose?

Speaker 5 (46:42):
Yeah, but at some point, at some point records last week,
they're not telling it.

Speaker 3 (46:48):
Not good? Okay, okay, I mean because I think one's business. No,
you probably hit one. Then you go Bills and Bills
and Eagles. So one on one, it's one and one
that bet the Chiefs.

Speaker 2 (47:04):
It's like we everybody kind of said the things of like, hey,
three p the Eagles. I was like, hey, Eagles A
probably gonna win this game. But I'm recommanders. But I'm
still And also what.

Speaker 1 (47:13):
I say in the regular season, Bills beat the Chiefs
in regular.

Speaker 3 (47:17):
Season four they need to do next year sit all
their starters. Bills just sit all their stars don't win.
The Chiefs loose, you lose. You've now flipped. You guys
have the biggest omen for who's gonna win this game?
Right over the wall right, I'm looking at Rocky Likes.
It's Rocky town Man. There you go, There you go,
Rocky's right there, there you go.

Speaker 1 (47:36):
Here's another omen for the last two and a half years.
Will Compton's that the Chiefs are dead. They're dead, They're
always under dead. And has willed they I guarantee the
Chiefs locker room. There's a picture of Will Compton someone
with his old teeth and they're like, this motherfucker is
the reason why we're gonna win the Super Bowl.

Speaker 2 (47:50):
Drew Trank, Will tweeted, tweeted at me last night says
Compton loves the Chiefs.

Speaker 3 (47:54):
He's gonna be talking about all week on bus.

Speaker 4 (47:57):
Because he goes.

Speaker 2 (47:58):
He goes there for everybody saying the referees, YadA, we
staying on business and I just put business and it
was just a penalty flag the business written on it.

Speaker 3 (48:05):
Is that one of the greatest signings though, the chief signing.
Drew trankle bro he's been he's un chargers because when
he was on the Chargers. Who is he with then?
Who is the guy next to him? Well, they had
the guy from Kenneth Murray, Kenneth Murray. Yeah, yeah, he's
had a hell of dude Bolton too, that he made
like it was it.

Speaker 2 (48:25):
Was it knocks where he it's a good ball and
it's over the middle and Bolton just plays his arms,
he catches the ball. Bolton plays off the field. They
play every every play. Yeah, they have good they have
good backers. Shout out Drew. Maybe next year on the
Old White team. That's probably where he's probably projecting because
he was on the Old White team.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
Yeah, probably Chiefs Eagles, Eagles.

Speaker 3 (48:47):
Eagles, Yeah, Eagles, And I just thought that. But but
for good reason though, Taylor, like honestly, like they're better
in the trenches. That's where these games are won. Like
they're just better than the Chiefs are right there.

Speaker 1 (48:58):
I don't disagree with anything I said. I know coaching wines.

Speaker 3 (49:01):
Better the run games. But if you said Andy Reid
Nick Sirianni, right, I mean, you know, like there's certain
things that definitely I don't think people are gonna question,
you know, the game plan.

Speaker 2 (49:11):
You just all game defense, you got that great defense
in Philly. It's all about, Hey, when Xavier Worthy's in
where he's lined up here, here's when he's motion. Here's
the big motion tendency you always gotta be aware of.

Speaker 1 (49:21):
Here's here's the thing you bring up that Andy Reid's
and the other other things saying, when Xavier Worthy is here,
they're gonna think X, Y and Z and that is
a reed above everybody else.

Speaker 3 (49:33):
And you got two weeks of prepare so you have
to do that right, Like when.

Speaker 1 (49:36):
When Alabama was relevant. It's like Nick Saban, if he
is a month to prepare for.

Speaker 3 (49:39):
You, like that you get going to beat you. You
give him a pint of hogging doss and like you know,
and let him burn the midnight. Like that guy is
chickling like nobody else. Yeah, that's why all these all
these guys that leave Andy Reids nest on offense, like
they're never really successful because none of them have the
mind of Andy. Like there's never like most teams, they

(50:01):
have a playbook, we work out of the playbook. We'll
we'll tinker a little bit, and he's playbook. It's just
it's it's never ending, right, Like it's a constant. It's
just concepts. It's concepts. Like where was Juju Smith Schuster
all year all year? Like here he is an r
p O right down the middle of the field.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
Hollywood Brown, I Collarbonember fourteenth comes back. He's kind of
the hour is he around? Like when you're utility guy?
Is DeAndre Hopkins?

Speaker 3 (50:30):
You're in a good spot. Yeah, you're in a good spot.
Just just the only for DeAndre if the walls don't,
just make sure you catch it, Like that's all He's got.

Speaker 1 (50:38):
To need you to get Yeah, and he's gonna get
He he understands the soft points of the the ability
to beat guys in man coverage.

Speaker 5 (50:45):
Cay look for Travis Skills have a big game.

Speaker 3 (50:49):
He will have a touchdown in the Super Bowl. I mean,
you made that bad last week.

Speaker 4 (50:55):
It's perfect time and to get into our our big game.

Speaker 5 (51:37):
I'm going Eagles, so I'm gonna have to go with Jalen.

Speaker 4 (51:39):
You going Jalen, See, I'm going to Eagles, but I'm
going safety.

Speaker 1 (51:43):
But I think quarterback if the Eagles when it's going
to be because of Saquon Bark, Yeah, you think so,
he's gonna have at least one would think.

Speaker 3 (51:51):
So, buddy, he's done rush for yeah one yea.

Speaker 5 (51:55):
I know, but you know, Jalen the quarterback. So sometimes
I just feel like the quarterback.

Speaker 3 (52:00):
I think I wouldn't surprise me a safe one. Just
take a scream and just take it to the house
like just little things. He said, you get him in
the open field right now, He's just making every right cut,
every right move, and nobody could catch him. He's this
is the first time really in his whole career has
been healthy start to finish. He hadn't been nicked up
by anything like he gets two weeks around. Yeah, he

(52:21):
was a couple of drives, like just a cramp. What
was that showed down in the middle. You can't run that.

Speaker 1 (52:33):
Well, I'm not saying I'm not a doctor. Well, I'm
not out here saying he has an actual strain. I'm
saying he's out the there gun after one drive. Something's
obviously bothering him in the calf.

Speaker 3 (52:40):
Yeah, but I'm saying it's it's not a bicycle too.
I saw him on a bicycle, on a bicycle yesterday. Yeah,
he was in the bike sixty. He's got to week now.

Speaker 5 (52:51):
It was after he took on that block in the middle,
and then that's when he went out and started messing
with his calft.

Speaker 3 (52:57):
He picked up that blitz where he did he Bobby?

Speaker 1 (53:01):
You know?

Speaker 3 (53:01):
Yeah, he bodied them. I posted.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
That.

Speaker 3 (53:07):
I posted that. He like, did you didn't mention that
the guard freaking shove me to to He sent me
up as well on the list. While I did the
top five linebackers, you didn't put him on. Oh he
might have been fourth or fifth or maybe not, And
I'm just thinking like, yeah, I mean, Jesus, they all
take that, they take the post. Yeah, yeah, he takes

(53:30):
that's all right. So you're one one, take one, all right.
I'll take obviously the Pat Mahomes Chief swing m v P.
The Chiefs Chiefs win. Yeah, I'll say past the m
v P.

Speaker 1 (53:44):
Was there anybody else that you think, oh, they could
take the m v P? Because I don't think there's
gonna be one receiver that.

Speaker 5 (53:49):
Travis Travis, Travis, if you have a hell of a game,
Travis definitely.

Speaker 4 (53:54):
Or Chris Jones, well yeah, boy defender.

Speaker 5 (54:01):
Yeah, but did you see how many sacks that man had?
He Yeah, that was in a great fashion. I mean,
you're gonna win it when you do something like that.

Speaker 1 (54:11):
I hope we get Cam Newton for an interview in
the Super Bowl because I love to talk about him
not diving on that fumble.

Speaker 3 (54:17):
He talked about it all the time. I know. But
what you said, what are you saying.

Speaker 5 (54:21):
About to get hurt or break his hand or something like,
it's the Super Bowl, You've got to be able to go.

Speaker 3 (54:30):
To break my hand? Just brutal.

Speaker 1 (54:33):
We feel good. We are jumping the bus right now.

Speaker 2 (54:36):
Yeah, big hugs, tiny kisses, comment, subscribe, good luck,
