Stuck dam.

We'll give you Eagles Lions preview and we'll talk about
Monday night. Obviously, you know, a big win at landbou
Field beat the Packers ten to seven.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
So we got to discuss it, dive into it.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
There's a lot of drama going on that will dissect
and talk about. But let's talk about something positive, right
or a pole question. The addition of Jaalen Phillips makes
this Eagles defense superior in overall talent to the unit
that won the Super Bowl last season? Do you agree
or disagree? Let us know, Faithbook, YouTube, Twitter, that's what
we're live everywhere. You get your podcasts, whatever as well,

(01:40):
get the like, subscribe, follow.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
Most importantly joined the conversation, No, I disagree.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Doesn't make us our defense superior and overall talent to
last year's team. That's not that's not even fair. That's
like the eighty five Bears when it came to the
super Bowl. So I don't want to say we're better
than that. I mean, I want to say we're really
damn good. Oh and I love this defense. I think
it's close. I think it's close. But for me to

(02:12):
say you're you're you're talent superior, you got to go
cut the nets down to you know what I mean, Like,
I can't I can't say that right now.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
You know, they they've had their ups and downs.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
I think there's I think it's trending in that direction though, right,
you know, I could see how you could be agreed,
but not yet. Nikobe Dean coming back. You see the
impact that has on this run game, immediately impactful in
the run game.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
And we got and we've already gotten better there.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
And I think you saw a little bit that on
Monday Night, jenel Phillips Monster Edition. You can't have enough
great pass rushers. Fills a major need. But I don't
think I think reblank shit might stink out loud like
the more I'm thinking about Reid, but I'm not sure
they're uh. And I think you had a better year
last year, but I don't know if it's it can't

(02:56):
be superior. I mean, you got a guy designed for
one hundred million dollars in New England.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
That is a good football player.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
So he hasn't been replaced Joe who's a good football player,
not Mill Williams.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
We haven't replaced that. And that's okay, right, that's what happens.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
I don't know if Josh Schweat's been replaced, and I'll
have the biggest Josh Sweat fan, right, I think there's
guys that are trending in that direction.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Sure, but until this team is is healthy and.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
We see it all out there, like we sort of
all this week, right, but we sort of.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Us all this week. It is trending in that direction,
but they're not there yet.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
I'm just not ready to say, hey, you're better than
a team that absolutely walloped.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
The Kansas City Chiefs in the biggest game of the year,
and you know you can't.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Get more national global audience than that, and the belt
to ask that because you haven't you replaced CJ with mccooba.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
But like I said, I feel like I feel like
Reed's not as good.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
We all know our second corner isn't as good as
last year's production. So I again, I'm just flipping around.
But you know, I just don't I don't think we're
there yet, even though we just give up seven points
and we're absolutely dominant on Monday night, and I think
you need to you need to string that together together

(04:15):
a little bit more.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
But it's closer. It's close, but I'll disagree for right now.

Speaker 5 (04:21):
Yeah, I think you can make an argument the front
seven is better now with the addition of Phillips, right,
Phillips might be better than Sweat. We don't know obviously one week.
It's tough to say that, but Phillips kind of fills
in your your your sweat role a Joe Moo. You
can make an argument that he was better than than
Milton Williams last year. You can make that argument. Uh.

(04:42):
I think Front seven, I think Campbell was an upgrade
over who's the Oran Burks. I think Campbell's an upgrade
over at Oron Burks. So when you add him to
the lineup, I think we're getting a different Uh we're
in Davis this year. Uh, but I think so Front seven.
I think you can make the argument, uh that that

(05:04):
they are. But the secondary and and the lacking, especially
at that quarterback two position, it makes me disagree as well.
I like what I saw though on on on on Monday.
We brought a lot of pressure. I mean we were
in the backfield all the time. Nikobe led the team
in tackles and he only played a portion of the snaps.

(05:25):
He didn't play every down, which which to your point,
Tommy showed his chosen his impact and his ability to
just make plays whenever he's needed to. Uh. But yeah,
I'm gonna disagree Uh, it's close, though, I think you're right, Tommy,
it's close.

Speaker 6 (05:42):
What's funny about the pole? What's funny about the pole?
Watching that game, I couldn't wait to let tom know
in the chat that Dorry Jackson played a great game,
like he played great, he played great, And then I
couldn't wait to get on the air and level and
know how I acknowledge that Dory Jackson and played great
And now somehow I'm answering a poll question and a

(06:04):
Dorri Jackson is the reason that I absolutely positively one
thousand disagree. And it's not close. I was not expecting
that today, but here we are. I guess someone braising
that role as a hater. But yeah, it's not close.
And even the front seven to have two guys have
the ability of what a Jomo's giving you right now,

(06:28):
I mean that's the other thing too. So the depth
was there and it's not close. Like when guys go
down Kille ringos and stepping up, it's the guy who's
playing his ass off in Minnesota, he's your backup corner
and it's just across the board.

Speaker 3 (06:45):
It.

Speaker 6 (06:45):
I mean that Dela won't We'll never see a defense
like that in here again.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
Ever, Yeah, I find it very hard to agree just
because of how good that defense was last year. And
like you said, you lost, you lost Sweat, you lost.
You know, Milton Williams and those two guys got massive deals, right.
The reason like they got massive deals is just because

(07:13):
of how good they were here last year, right, Like
Josh Sweat had an argument to be the the MVP
of the Super Bowl, right if Jalen didn't play his
ass off. So and considering the fact that, like just
if you just look at numbers, right, look at strictly
sack numbers, this this d line hasn't done a thing, right,

(07:33):
Like obviously Jalen Phillips came in last night or this
week and had a massive game. He was in the
backfield pretty much every snap. It seemed like, you know,
he had like eight c eight pressures. You know, was
didn't get a sack, but you know had that massive
like stop on fourth down to essentially no, not end
the game, but pretty much ice it.

Speaker 5 (07:53):
Right.

Speaker 3 (07:55):
But like I do like how the defense is younger.
I love Jahah Campbell. I like Macouba back there. I
like that you you know, you can get Jalen Phillips
and he's only what twenty four twenty five, right if
he ends up staying here, like you're only paying like
another guy. And you know, Jalen Carter hasn't been bad

(08:17):
this year, but he hasn't been as good as he
was last year.

Speaker 5 (08:20):
Right, he was awesome on Monday. He was again like
I think he was Jalen Carter on Monday.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
Right, he played Monday because he got Jalen Phillips and
here Jalen Carter was allowed to do a little bit more. Right,
So right now I can't say that I that we're
going to be able to do that, but having you know,
the guys that we do and we're all more or
less locked up. But again, like our r QB or

(08:47):
CB two has just been awful for the majority of
this year. You you haven't shown that you can sack
the quarterback at the rate that we were doing it
last year. Like we're getting pressure that's a lot better.
But right now it's not fair to this defense because
they're really really good. Right. Obviously you just held a
team like to seven points on the road on Monday night,

(09:10):
So again it's it's really hard to say that they're
not as good as a team as they were last year.
But again, what like Tom said, that team last year
was just diabolical defensively, so can they be it? Yeah?
Do I think that, Like we have a massive you
know and stretch coming down here. I could change my mind, yeah,

(09:31):
but right now I just can't can't do it.

Speaker 7 (09:37):
I'm gonna also disagree to the poll. But I'll tell
you what, that defense on Monday night looked night and
day better than what we looked like a month ago,
because I remember that terrible Thursday night in the Meadowlands.

(09:59):
Well we rolled over and died. Okay, Well we've gotten
off the mat since then, haven't lost a football game since,
and have looked pretty damn good on the defensive side
of the ball. And I remember saying that this is
going to be a much better football team come Thanksgiving

(10:21):
than we were, say in September and October. And I
think that's starting to come together, at least on the
defensive side of the ball. The offense, yeah, I got
some concerns there from Monday night, but the bottom line
is a winner is a win in the NFL, and
especially at Lambeau Gentlemen on Monday night under the bright lights,

(10:44):
for our defense to go, hold the green, to go
hold the Packers to seven points. That's pretty damn impressive.
And I love the way our front seven played. I mean,
Jalen Phillips was out of his mind and his Eagles debut,
and I thought Harder and Company and the rest came
to play as well. And uh, I think, look, man,

(11:07):
I think right now we look like a top five defense,
but I don't think we're quite where we were last year.
And I'm really interested to see what we do Sunday
night against Detroit.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
Yeah. I think the biggest thing that you know, makes
makes this win bigger than I think it is, is
it's a football team that's got embarrassed at home the
week prior. We talked about that last Wednesday. You know,
you're thinking you're taking their best shot on Monday night,
and you know.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
Defensively, you you got after them early. He stopped the
run like we talked about. You know, you made them
throw the football and you know you made him nervous
in the pocket. It was just the pressures alone, and
we got home a little bit. I mean, so you know,
and that's after you know, you take we take that
first drive down and we fumbled there and I'm like,

(12:00):
we're gonna I'm like, we're gonna lose this game. Like
I said it to you guys, Greg, I said one
of our group chets. I'm like, we're gonna lose this
game if we don't take the ball away ourselves.

Speaker 2 (12:10):
That was my comment.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
If we lose the time, yeah, we lose turnover bat
all Monday, we're losing this game. So we got to
make up for that. And we did right, and this
defense did so. I really like how it's shaping up.
But again, it's not fair to call him better and
there and there is issues offensively, I mean there absolutely is.

(12:31):
I mean, we just unpack this now. I mean, I
don't know what the hell we're waiting for, you know,
all respect to the jail and Phillips and this defense
being as close to the last year or better or
superior or whatever the.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
Case mayah like the euphant goddamn room. Here is this
offense and what drive time dial.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
Bullshit radio, corporate bullshit radio is doing is rushing this
football team. That's what's happening. That's what's happened. That they're
making it worse than it should be, absolutely should be.
It's a seven and two football team that should have
the goddamn respect of being reigning Super Bowl champions and

(13:16):
being seven and two and having ups and downs offensively,
big time ups and downs.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
But allow them to work it out when you when
you know the relationship now and it's been made clear
between Aj and Jailen, between Aj DeVante and Jailen, Like,
can we stop? Can we stop?

Speaker 7 (13:36):
Like?

Speaker 2 (13:36):
Can we stop back?

Speaker 1 (13:37):
Like the guy who don't want to be here after
he tells you he wants to be here, can we
just stop with it all?

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Can we start with guys that be honest. We ask
for honesty in this city for years and years and
years as a fan. He's honest, honest, honest guy tells
you the truth.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
We don't not to handle it, Yeah, because we got
a bunch of immature, freaking frat boys.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
How many how many drinks can I add to the
day on a Sunday because you're a bunch of losers
that have no IQ. This is what this is what
this fan base is starting into. So we're gonna swallow
the whole load that.

Speaker 1 (14:10):
The local media gives us, the drive time bullshit. We're
gonna swallow that entire load, and we're gonna enjoy it.
That's what's happening, and then we're gonna spew the same
bullshit on Twitter because that's the That's a septic tank.
That's what that is. It's a septic tank not only
for sports conversations, but it's a septic tank for life.
That's Twitter at whatever you want to call her, that's

(14:32):
what it is. So my advice to people to stay
away from it because you're ruining something special. What I'm
mad about you, You guys are ruining something that the
potential for dynasty talk. We're ruining it because the guy
doesn't get targeted, and then we just want to that one.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
We don't want to leave it alone. Like we all
got hyes, do we see it and get targeted? We
see why?

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Why do I need a hundred questions to Why do
I need to constantly press them? And then when he
goes and actually his honest and open on a podcast,
which I don't agree with doing it on a podcast.
I'd rather I'd rather you tell me right to the
local to the local media in the house. But when
you go on a podcast and event and you're frustrated
and you're saying it's it's a ship show.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
We can't we can't hide the weaknesses right now. We
gotta fix them right.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
It's not he's not trying to cut the cut the
neck off of people right now. It's not what he's
trying to do. He's not trying to cut people's heads off.
He's trying to say, like, listen right nowt to ship show.
We gotta get it right offensively. We can't keep laving
it up to our defense to bail us out. That's
a freaking great teammates say. That's what great teammates say. Look,

(15:43):
you guys, can we not comprehend it?

Speaker 7 (15:45):
And great and great players want the fucking ball.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
I can't blame AJ for wanting the fucking ball.

Speaker 2 (15:54):
And you said it last week. But forget what the
ball like.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
He's always talking about his offensive playing better, getting better.

Speaker 2 (16:01):
It's it's not clicking right now.

Speaker 8 (16:03):
Why can't he be truthful? We got eyes, we all
know it's not clicking. So he says it, and that
all he doesn't want to be here. He's a problem.
And then what makes the problem is you got to
keep asking the questions. So Nick Sirianna gets asked a
question today, is a J Brown a problem? How many
times does the guy to tell you that he's not
a problem. If he was a problem, he wouldn't be

(16:24):
on the roster going into this season. Super Bowl champion
or not.

Speaker 3 (16:28):
Captain, Yeah, captain this football team.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
Yes, everybody out there has something bad to say.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
But a J.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
Brown and ninety four w IP and ninety seventy five,
the goddamn the goddamn fanatic, the Mickey Mask Corporation, they
are stop preasing it.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
You got football.

Speaker 1 (16:48):
Guys on these freaking stations that aren't smart enough.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
Could you're being told with to say I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
I mean, we've done enough hate on the dial over
the years. I let it go for a while. But
like it's the dial, it's these morons that ask these
questions in the locker room. Can we please start over, Jeffy,
you're smart enough, jeff you're a smart.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
Enough business owner through the years. Start over. Kick them
all the hell out, kick them all out. Here's a joke.
It is the.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
Guy who don't even ask football questions anymore. Guys, it's
any football questions. So this latter of myight knows.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
We're running about five wide receiver out of here.

Speaker 1 (17:37):
Everybody know what you're doing and what you're responsible for.
What's your goddamn responsible for by terrible journalism? Okay, oh
curse a little bit, grow up. It's twenty twenty five,
all right, So you gotta have terrible journalism.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
You have all the degrees you want. Everything else. I
don't care. It's it's disgusting. Offer a rating, Offer a click.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
Although somebody calls in and oh he's a powerm I'm
getting out that day.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
That's all you want. You want drama, that's all you
care about.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
You actually prefer that the Eagles were the Eagles in
the nineties. That's what dial radio would prefer, because they
can just destroy people all day and crust people with no.

Speaker 2 (18:19):
Basis to it, no facts to it.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
Just we're just gonna crush today because we're a bunch
of morons.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
Every one of those guys hand.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
Those guys need a goddamn stool to sit in the
chair to be able to reach the microphone, and we're
taking their work for it.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
We're listening to a guy who takes bubble bass. The
guy takes bubble bass as a grown ass man, and
we're taking his works for it. Shit, this is what
we're doing. That moron saying vj Apscomb isn't any good
that we're allowing these stakes, We're allowing this to happen.
We just want to.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
Run good players and great players out of this city
because deep down we want turmoil and we want to
win seasons.

Speaker 2 (19:01):
That's deep down what we want. Deep down, we want
to be the New York Jets. That's who we really
want to be. Really drive your ratings up. I'm sorry
for them.

Speaker 7 (19:14):
Do some of these schmucks do they want us to
be the Dallas Cowboys?

Speaker 3 (19:20):
Now?

Speaker 2 (19:20):
Think about that?

Speaker 7 (19:22):
What what are the Dallas Cowboys good at over the
last twenty five years? And I don't mean about anything
on the field. They haven't done a fucking thing on
the field since I was twelve. Okay, they haven't won
a Super Bowl since I was twelve. You know why,
because all Jerry cares about now, he doesn't care about

(19:43):
the product on the field. He cares about being a
fucking clown show. He cares about being at the top
of the ratings. He cares about being in the first
segment on fucking SportsCenter.

Speaker 9 (20:01):
Right, Is that what we want? Is that what we
want in this town? Sounds like it, brother, And you're
not wrong.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
I love you, bro, you got you, you always got
great takes, like, and it's how he went about it, Like,
I don't know how else we expect him to go
about it.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
Yeah, and we're living now.

Speaker 3 (20:24):
You know, I need to physically disagree with what Pat's
saying about how he went about it. He gave you
the corporate answer after games, right, he says something like
for weeks he's been like he's been doing you know,
the good teammate thing, good teammate thing, good teammate thing, right,
and they keep fucking pressing and pressing and pressing and pressing.
He's like, yeah, man, this isn't fun. It's not fun
right now. It's we're not doing everything we need to do.

(20:46):
And it's not just about him. But he's like, yeah, look,
I'm not getting my targets right. That's because of the
offense in general. If the offense in general is running well,
we get targets. That's how it works.

Speaker 7 (20:57):
Remember that swim pass to Sakwan Barkley where he had
a forty one yard play down the sideline right, made
a man miss.

Speaker 10 (21:08):
Guess who was blocking downfield? That's right, number eleven, Yeah,
guess who was making that effort. Now, has Aj handled
everything perfectly?

Speaker 7 (21:21):
No, of course, not all right, and there's some things
I wish he'd clean up a little bit. But the
bottom line is he wants to win just as badly
as the fifty two other Philadelphia Eagles in that locker room.
And I got no problem with that, not at all.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
I think I think for he go ahead. I think
AJ is being the guy to be like, Yo, this
is what we need to do because Jalen's doing the
typical quarterback thing. Jalen talks because he has to. Jalen
doesn't want to talk right. Davante's the same type of way.
He doesn't do it right. Dallas Goddards not at that
level where he's like, oh hey, I'm gonna you know,

(22:03):
he's not gonna be that vocal guy. It's on AJ.
AJ's got to be the guy be like, yeah, hey, look,
we know what the fuck's going wrong. Like we obviously
see what you guys see. We're leading the league in
three and outs. That's not good. You know, we're not
in flow, we're not moving the balls because we're stressing
our defense out because we're not playing to our standard.
Right now, does that come down to play calling. Does

(22:26):
it come down to audibles at the line? What does
it come down to? I don't know. I'm not an
extra to the nose guy. I wish I was right,
but I can't. Like I see the screenshots of like,
oh aj Brown's wide open here, okay, but Jalen's got
three guys in his face, right, he checked to the
line to get him open in the first place. But
like there's an extra extra runner, right, whatever that's gonna

(22:47):
end up being. But it comes down to this, right,
You're coming off of a bye week, okay, and you
had one good drive where you fumbled the football. You
had a solid drive come no ow of the half, right,
so your playscripts work right, the playscripts work okay? And
then your touchdown drive was a third and eight screen

(23:10):
where Saquon makes a guy miss and then you go
up top to your number one receiver and single coverage.
Like doing those plays, that two play swing right there,
where you went from like your own thirty to scoring
a touchdown in two plays shows me that you should
never ever, ever, ever, ever ever ever run a fucking

(23:30):
draw to will Shipley on third and long ever again,
Why the hell is that in a playbook, Give the ball,
run a screen, run a screen to saquon, run a
couple of slints, do something to get the ball moving.
Run a little bit of hurry up, change something up,
because whatever you're doing, it's outside of those opening scripts,

(23:51):
isn't fucking working.

Speaker 7 (23:53):
And to your point, how many times on Monday night,
I don't want to belabor this. Where in third in law,
whether it was a draw or it was some type
of run play And to me, what do we do
in that moment there? You're playing scared? You can't play scared.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
And I just I don't know if I agree with that.
I don't know if that's playing scared. I think you
can look at it two ways. I think that hear
what I'm saying with this, yeh yeah yeah. Like Josh
McDaniels up in New England did the same thing this week.
You ran a third and eight freaking draw. That tells
me you got confidence that you ain't losing your job.
That's what that does. That's the kind of play where, like,

(24:36):
you know what, they're not expecting us to run right now.
Let meus if I a bust one. So I don't
if it works. It worked, like you know, what I mean.
If it works, it works, I don't I don't have
a big problem with that. When I know dns want
to get up the field. I know they're trying to
get it to the quarterback and maybe I can sneak
one through, try to get something going.

Speaker 2 (24:52):
I don't have a problem with that. Like you can
look at play to play and be like, I don't
like that. After the fact, right, it's it's it's easy.
I have more I'm with rhythm. I have more of
a problem with that kind of stuff with this offense.
And they notice when they go hurry up, you know,
things work better for them.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
I just don't know why they don't do it more often.
I think they sort of have it in front of him.
And you're right, like, if you can, if you can
script it and run it well for the most part,
then it tells me you can design place.

Speaker 2 (25:20):
But like in ging ininging, play calling isn't easy. It's
not built for everybody. Right, It's like anything else, it's feel,
it's it's a lot.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
Right.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
But the whole problem I have is, Yo, we hired
a guy with no experience doing it.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Jesse, because that's what they think.

Speaker 1 (25:41):
Why would they run Shipple Year like you answer the
question yourself, like, I'm not here to thank Kevin Puto.

Speaker 2 (25:47):
I'm not here to do any of this.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
You put Saquan back there, they might give him the ball,
but will simpley back there.

Speaker 2 (25:53):
They're probably not expecting him to run the football, that's all.
I'm not defending the fucking play call. I don't I
don't care. I don't care about defend them. Like, I'm
not defending any of it. It's been in that right
and there's too much talent for it to be in that.
So they're gonna figure it out. Man.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
If that's if that's taking play call play call duties,
I don't know, Yeah, I I truly, I truly don't know.

Speaker 5 (26:15):
But it doesn't sound like any of that's happening. Right,
But right you brought it up, you know, Aj talking
about the screenshot. He had chances in that presser, right,
everything too, if we just would have waited for him
to talk instead of taken well, you know, wasn't necessarily
out of context, but what was what was on the stream,
and he was claiming he was joking around and he

(26:36):
was having fun and he was lout, you know, letting
loose a little bit. Yeah, we could all nitpick and
say probably would have preferred to have it done a
little differently, but we're also not him, right. But as
soon as he put the mic in his in his
face at practice, he explained it all. And then you go, yeah,
it don't make sense. And you were talking about that
screenshot with him because I was furious anto the game.
I saw that. I'm like, I'm on team AJ now

(26:59):
right wide open the front of you, hey, and you're
looking at him throw the football. It's twenty yards maybe
a touchdown with him, and he didn't take the shot, right,
He stood up for his guy, And it goes back
to your you, Tommy, like those guys inside that building
have that have that understanding. There might be bumps in
the road, right, There might be you know, weeks where

(27:21):
they're not necessarily clicking right. Obviously we saw that. But
he had a chance to take a shot and he
did it, and that should kind of tell you everything
you need to know about him. And know that you
brought it up too that block well in that sequon run, yeah, yeah,
what I've liked a little bit more effort on that
fourth down they try and come back and get the

(27:42):
football in a league that's gonna throw a flag, right, like,
not every third thirty long? Did we have to run
at Yeah? I mean it is what it is. But
in a league that's so happy to throw flags, we
don't go down the field at all on one of those.
You know. But he had a chance, he had a
chance to take this to be selfish and to be

(28:03):
everything that the media wants to portray him to be.
And he did it. He took his guys back. He
made it about the team, and he made it about
the frustration of the offense, which everybody after Monday night
was all on board with.

Speaker 3 (28:19):
I think I think the difference between you know what
AJ's saying, I think it's it's the why, right, It's
because they've put themselves into this. You're an upper echelon team, right,
You're the defending Super Bowl champions. AJ like said in
his prescommence, He's like, hey, look, thank you for the ring,

(28:40):
but we're not the same team we were last year, right.
Our offense isn't work in the same way.

Speaker 5 (28:44):
We all love that in the beginning of the year, yeah, right,
we all love that. Turned the page talk.

Speaker 3 (28:49):
Right exactly, right, Like, at some point you have to
hold yourselves to that standard, and right now you're not
playing to that standard. So he's trying to do that,
and that's why he's frustrated. He's not frustrated because he's
not getting fifteen targets a game. He doesn't need to
be Jamar Chase for the Eagles to win, right, because
there's gonna be plays where even if he's the number

(29:09):
one read but he's getting double team, Devonte's gonna be
running wide open down the middle of the field, or
Dallas Goddard or Saquan's open on the backside or whatever
it is. You have so many playmakers on this offense
that if somebody has you have to take. The defense
is take somebody away. Somebody else is going to be open. Right.
And I love the fact that the Eagles don't turn
the football over, right, I love it.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
Now.

Speaker 3 (29:31):
What was it our fourth turnover the year? Jalen Fumball? Okay,
the fourth turnover the year? Okay, I will give up,
you know, a turnover here or there if you take
more shots. I'll be okay with that, right because I
know that the our defense, if you throw a pick
forty yards down the field, that they're gonna probably make
them punt more us, Right, I trust our defense to

(29:55):
be able to back us up on offense.

Speaker 7 (29:57):
If some third, it's as good as a punt any right.

Speaker 3 (30:00):
So depending on the situation, right, Like, I don't want
to say that running a third and third and long
draw is the worst play call of all time, right,
I'm just sick of it being that's the go to
on third and long. It seems like that's what it's been, yeah, Right,
Whereas like, like I said, you had the third and
eight or thirty nine screen like dump off the saquon

(30:23):
which then turned into a touchdown play later. Right, if
you take more shots, Like I'm not saying you have
to throw the ball deep fifteen times a game, right,
But you know, even if you want to run a
semi hurry up offense, you don't have to hike the
football ten seconds after you go get to the line
diagnose what the defense is gonna do. It also keeps
their defense on the field longer, they can't switch guys out, right,

(30:47):
and you're gonna be able to match up a hell
of a lot better with their defense, and they can
match up with you offensively. So it's it's frustrating as
a as a fan watching the games where this offense
or ten points coming off of bye week, now props
like ten points come off of bye week. There's something
wrong there, right, And you know we'll talk about it

(31:09):
sooner or later. But we got the Detroit Lions coming
in this week. You score ten points, get the Lions
losing by twenty five at home, Like, that's not gonna work.
So you know, we'll see what happens, and I'm sure
we'll discuss it in a bit. But like, dude, like
the Lions are one of those teams that can match
up with you man demand offensively, right, and they got

(31:31):
You got Jamiir Gibbs who was a stud coming in
this week. You got Amanda Saint Brown stud coming in
this week. So you're gonna have to put up points, right,
and that Lions. The Lions defense is just as good
as the Packers. I it's not better, So gotta figure
something out of the next couple of days, no doubt.

Speaker 7 (31:48):
But in all great points and all well said, here's
the beautiful part. The beautiful part is even despite the
so called AJ controversy, despite our offense being jackal and hide,
you know it's bipolar almost. You know, there's times where
we'll go down the field with these and then there's

(32:10):
times where it's nothing but three and out. But despite
all of this, we are seven and two and have
everything in front of us. We're currently the number one
seed in the NFC. And the thing, the beauty of
it is, there is no quote unquote great team in

(32:30):
the NFL this year. I can't find a single team
and say, oh, there, they can't be beat or they
can't be beat and hey, I'll be honest, Yeah, I
think we're the closest.

Speaker 5 (32:44):
Thing to it if you look at if you look
at like the value of our wins, like you know,
down there down the line, worry ye on the road
of Chiefs, on the road of bucks, on the road
in Green Bay. Yep, I did it because I'm so
I went through this tog yesterday. I'm so sick of
here and Steven ad putting not having the Eagles in

(33:07):
the top five of his power rankings right like it's
it's a joke, but it got me so fired up.
Seahawks combined records of the teams they won twenty five
and forty. Wow, Combining records of the teams they've lost
twelve and seven. Rams combined record are the teams they've
won thirty and thirty seven, thirteen and six Again, are

(33:31):
the teams they've lost to Eagles combined records thirty two,
thirty and two. Because Cowboys and Packers are chuds and
tied record of who we lost to ten and ten.
Broncos and Giants flip flop each other. But so you
looking at that. Everyone wants to say, Sam Donalds back time.

(33:53):
I know you went on a great rant about it
last week, Right, Sam donald they've beaten nobody, they've beaten nobody. Uh,
Steelers and Jags are the only winning teams that they've beaten.
And then it Rams. You could say the Colts are
a good win, and then forty nine Ers were a
good win. Right, but how good are the Colts? The Colts,

(34:15):
you can make an argument are frauds too.

Speaker 3 (34:18):
I think you'll see a lot.

Speaker 5 (34:20):
So that's we are that team.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
What was our record versus.

Speaker 5 (34:25):
Thirty two thirty and two?

Speaker 3 (34:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (34:32):
Everyone, Bucks, Packers all winning, all have winning records, and
three of those wins were on the road.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Yep, that's the difference.

Speaker 3 (34:45):
I think I think your your two biggest rivals in
the NFC. Well, your three biggest rivals in the NFC.
You're playing one of them this week, right, you already
beat one of them, who blew a twenty plus point lead, right,
and then the third team is the Seahawks, who everybody
thinks that is really really good. I think you turn.
I think I want to see what happens when they

(35:06):
play the Rams this week, and that'll tell me everything
I need to know about the Seahawks because they haven't.

Speaker 7 (35:12):
Played any the Rams are gonna blow them out.

Speaker 3 (35:14):
I agree with Nola. I think that. I think the
Rams beat them handily.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
Where the defense is good, where's the game at?

Speaker 3 (35:24):
But that doesn't matter, that matter, it matters. But like
the Rams don't have home games.

Speaker 1 (35:31):
No, no, no, you're missing my career talking about we're
talking about Seattle.

Speaker 3 (35:36):
In l A. I think it's in l A.

Speaker 5 (35:38):
I'm looking it up.

Speaker 2 (35:40):
Not a big deal.

Speaker 1 (35:40):
I mean, it's just where my head went right obviously, naturally,
But no, I agree with it's going to tell you
a little bit more.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
It's gonna tell us a little bit more about Seattle,
you know. But it's gonna gonna tell us a little
bit more about the Rams too. I think it's good.

Speaker 5 (35:51):
This is that?

Speaker 1 (35:51):
Does that tell me game for both? I think Seattle
defense really good. So you know everything I say about Seattle.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
Offensively, you know Smith, the jig is he is awesome.
He's awesome.

Speaker 1 (36:04):
I don't think people have realized how awesome he is. Now,
where do they sort of get you after that? Offensively?

Speaker 7 (36:11):
For me?

Speaker 1 (36:12):
You know, they're they're they're men. I'm luke warm on
the rest. Kenneth Walker Chardonnay gets all their touchdowns. He's
a good player.

Speaker 5 (36:20):
I don't run it.

Speaker 11 (36:20):
They don't run it effectively enough, No, they don't. I
don't love the offensive line. Sam's had a good year again.
But I just I'm not sold on that offense. Now,
that's a guy who just scored ten points on Monday night.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
Oh bye, I'll tell you I'm not solding somebody else.

Speaker 5 (36:38):
I think, yeah, go ahead, finish.

Speaker 3 (36:40):
No.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
I just think this link's hard, man, Yeah, I just
think this link's really hard.

Speaker 1 (36:44):
I think we can sit back here on our goddamn
couches and act like we watched a bunch of like
fourteen year olds play goddamn flag football like it's.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
Not It ain't that easy. It's not that easy, like.

Speaker 1 (36:55):
And I don't think we realize it, and these are
all pros, Like we don't realize how much money the other.

Speaker 12 (36:59):
Teams get like sometimes and we will get We only
see what we see, and we don't we watching red
Zon all the time, like you know, we pay attention
to the rest of the league because every year is different,
like how league, how the league goes, and how.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
Shapes and informs every league every year, sorry, every year
is a little different than the year after me.

Speaker 7 (37:18):
We're gonna say about the Monday night win. If the
Packers get hot and you know, only lose one more
game this year, I mean quarter and die.

Speaker 2 (37:29):
That's a different football team on Monday night at home.

Speaker 13 (37:31):
Absolutely, Like I think, do not count smacking them in
the map to not and not act like that doesn't
stand for anything, to not be able to Here's the
one thing I'll say, is our offense perfect?

Speaker 2 (37:42):
No, But I'll tell you this and I can stand
by this. What kind of game do you want to play?
To that and what I mean by that is what
style do you want to play? You won't be running
gun today because we can do that with you. We
talked about this last year too. We can do that
with you.

Speaker 1 (37:57):
Or you want to play you want to get a
dog fight, you want to nineties football, You want to run,
pound it every inch and and and defensive and win
it defensively. We can play that file too. You want
to be in between, we can do that one as well.

Speaker 2 (38:11):
And I think the chameleon in us it doesn't get
enough credit.

Speaker 5 (38:15):
That Jalen Phillips brought that up. After the game.

Speaker 2 (38:18):
They talked and.

Speaker 5 (38:20):
He essentially said that he goes it didn't matter what
happened during that game. Everybody on that sideline was cool, calm, collected.
It didn't matter what the score was. Everybody knew and
had the utmost confidence in each other that this was
gonna that this was gonna turn out. Right, And we
talked about that fumble, right, we don't know how this
game turns if we score seven there, right, we don't

(38:43):
know what what happens to this game if we score seven.
And because we hadn't had that happen, right, you talked
about it fourth fumble of a year or fourth turnover
the year, and so we didn't. We got it back
and our defense came to play, but we couldn't even
get like what if we get through there, What if
we get seven? Who knows what that does to the
offense the rest of the game. Knowing that we just

(39:06):
drove and took the entire quarter, we would have we
would have walked out of the quarter two possessions, right,
Packers said one, we would have had the second. We
would have ended the quarter if we didn't fumble that ball.
And and it happens, right, It's not like we can't
take it back. But the confidence, like you said, Tommy,
the confidence that this team has to go anywhere that

(39:28):
the other team wants to go and still know that bat.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
Yeah, Like I don't think it gets enough credit. And again,
I mean the worst in the NFL want twenty five
years and three and outs, Like I get it, Like
that is bad, Like you want to look at an alarming thing.

Speaker 2 (39:45):
That's it's alarming as hell with.

Speaker 5 (39:48):
The fort and skill players we have, that is yeah, Yeah,
that's a problem.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
You were saying, Hey, like I don't need to I
don't need to go with somebody else's podcast to do that.
Like a j shit just went live to X and
just told everybody, like, guys, you don't you don't see
the problem here and and part of it is how
healthy is he. I'll continue to say this.

Speaker 1 (40:07):
I stood by this from from a hammy before the
season starts, a hammy before this season starts. There is
nothing that affects a freaking thorough bread more than a
hammy lingerization. I don't even know if that's a word,
but we just did it throughout the year. Okay, I

(40:29):
don't know. It's like something hamstrings an athlete that is
a thorough bread.

Speaker 2 (40:36):
More than a hammy. There is it, Like I don't know,
I'm making an excuse me for him.

Speaker 1 (40:41):
I'm making excuse that if he's not him, we're not
gonna be as good. He's not gonna be open as much.
I'm not saying he's not open. But you can listen
to guys like Troy Aikman sit in that box over
first half and tell you why guys weren't open right,
Like we we listen to guys who's watching the areos
shot of everything.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
Does that mean Troy's getting it all right? He's taking
a bunch of hits. Who knows, right? But the point is,
like we got we got a Hall of Famer up
in the box telling us like stuffing isn't open.

Speaker 5 (41:10):
He's nowhere to go with the football.

Speaker 2 (41:12):
And then we just act like that defense is the
lead over there. That's not a damn good defense over there.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
So we just we just take things and we just
act like it didn't happen, like Yo, it was eleven
verse nobody.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
How do we not get him targets? I don't say
that either, Unlett.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
He's not open unless my quarterback is evading too soon
like there, and and why is he is the pressure
up the middle?

Speaker 2 (41:38):
Right? There's factors to this.

Speaker 5 (41:40):
Like there's a good guy on the outside, he's probably
paying attention to.

Speaker 1 (41:43):
Him and Bill one thing, last thing now and then god,
the last thing. Bill made a common earlier that Davonte's
my son. Okay, but Davonte's the one, and AJ doesn't
like you can take in the back seat to him.

Speaker 2 (41:55):
This an there. I don't even think that's the case.

Speaker 1 (41:58):
Like a J healthy is the number one because of
his size, strength and his physical ability. He's a one
because of the size, always right, But Devonte's batman and
Robin it doesn't it doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (42:09):
Guys can be ones on certain days because of matchups.
That's what these guys try to do. That's scheming.

Speaker 1 (42:14):
That's what scheme meets. Hey, where's your weakness? We want
to attack it. Listen, there was some there were some
things I saw this week too.

Speaker 2 (42:21):
There was a lot of motion. They ran a ton
of motion this week, just didn't have good results with it.

Speaker 5 (42:25):
Why is it?

Speaker 2 (42:26):
I don't know, Like Greg said, Ryan said, like, there's
screenshots of AJ being opened, but there's also three guys
in the quarterbacks face like, we're not. We're Actually, he's
got a clean pocket all the time he's got and
there's been clean pockets where nobody's open. I seen him
sit back there. So it's either guys stop running routes.

Speaker 1 (42:44):
Guys quit on it when you know you have a
quarterback that extends, So that tells me if you're ABJ
caught so many passes in this offense from extended plays
so many so is Davonte. So the only reason stopping
AJ from being open consistently on broke down.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
Please the handy Holy shit, I.

Speaker 7 (43:05):
Mean to your point, think about it, fellas. We're seven
and two and two of our best players on the
football team in Barkley and Brown, are having one of
the we'll just say they're having their career worst year,
just statistically right. Yet we're still seven and two despite that,

(43:31):
despite all the other bullshit, despite our offensive line being
banged up like a motherfucker. All Right, I don't even
know when Cam Jurgens is coming back. No, all right,
is he coming back?

Speaker 5 (43:47):
I thought it was this week. It made it sound
like it was this week. I thought so too.

Speaker 7 (43:51):
But and you know, you're right, obviously we all wish
him well and I hope he gets back soon.

Speaker 2 (43:57):
All right.

Speaker 7 (43:58):
But despite all that, we are still seven wins, two
losses and on a three game winning streak, and we
just won in one of the hardest places to play
in the National Football League in lambeau Field. It's only

(44:19):
gonna get better from here. Wait, can see on Sunday
night and.

Speaker 2 (44:25):
My quarterback been perfect.

Speaker 1 (44:26):
No, but he's got sixteen touchdowns in one interception and
two fumbles.

Speaker 2 (44:32):
That's his turnovers, sixteen to three, sixteen.

Speaker 5 (44:36):
To three went.

Speaker 1 (44:36):
He had another fumble that I'm forgetting about, but I
think there's only been two lost fumbles so.

Speaker 3 (44:40):
Sixteen and three.

Speaker 7 (44:42):
Rather taking care of the football.

Speaker 1 (44:44):
Yes, I don't want Justin Herbert. I don't want some
of these other guys.

Speaker 2 (44:48):
I want who I got I want who I got.
I want a guy that gives more of a shit about.

Speaker 1 (44:54):
This winning games. And again he had a chance to
end the game. They didn't, right, And I don't like
that stuff. There's things you can take away that I
don't like. But the guys just wins. Like we can,
we can end that conversation.

Speaker 2 (45:06):
We don't need to bring that up ever again until
we start to losing a time.

Speaker 1 (45:09):
Right, But right now, all he does is win. So
what's the problem. The problem is, let's try to fix
what the problem is. And the problem isn't players. The
problem isn't players' personalities there. The problem isn't cancers in
the locker room. That's not the problem here. You don't
go seven and two. You don't cut nets down last year.

(45:32):
We right, You don't do all that, and there'll be
all these problems. You don't do it.

Speaker 2 (45:38):
You don't respond from what happened to your prior like hoek,
oh my god. People need help for a second, you
guys need help. Everybody you need a little bit of help.

Speaker 1 (45:48):
Can we can we just take a step back and
actually think for a second in common sense, I say
this thing hitters and players all the time. Just relax
and make it simple. Stop making it so hard. This
is simple too. Twenty twenty three, we have monster collaps
monster collaps. Right, we're all though, a great start, but

(46:10):
it doesn't look pretty out of that. We have a
monster claps. O. Guy finishes off knocked out in the playoffs.
Done all right, So it's easy for that drama to start.
Easy if if there's major cancers that will start. We
get out to a two and two start, easy for
those cancers to come out right, here they come, and

(46:34):
what the heck happened?

Speaker 2 (46:35):
After that? The best team in football.

Speaker 1 (46:39):
Through the rest of the season, yep, and hoist the Lombardi.
Just to follow that up with, hey, let's get to
a seven and two start after a super Bowl. Hangovers
are real. You know, it's hard to go. It's hard
to go be the best team in the NFC right
now after a Super Bowl trophy. And we watched for
years teams like this go through it. Watched the we

(47:00):
watched the Patriots go through it at times. We watched it,
we watched the Chiefs go through it at times. Right,
and there's no really other like long dynasties I remember
like those two right or always the Patriots. But we've
watched it with that and the Super Bowls not being
good enough offensively, right, having to get by smoking mirrors, right,
But we shouldn't have that problem because.

Speaker 2 (47:22):
Of our talent. I think that's our frustration naturally. But
we're out of our center from last year and we're
out of our right guard from last year, so people don't
think that matters, and we're with a brand.

Speaker 1 (47:32):
New coordinator another one. If we don't think there's pains
in that, you can go buy a clue and.

Speaker 5 (47:40):
That's you know, that's something Aj said as well. When
you know the defense is naturally adjusted to us. This year,
they adjusted to us, and we haven't made the adjustment back.
You know what I think, uh goat, I think he said,
uh good statue said it here, heybody, I want the
coach to scheme him away from double and shady like yeah, no,

(48:02):
ship the other defense and they're gonna double our best
lide receiver.

Speaker 1 (48:07):
To your point, No, that's a great point too, because
back to that whole point, right, it's.

Speaker 2 (48:12):
Like he's that's the coach's job.

Speaker 1 (48:15):
It's not Ship, it's not oh well they're doubling you,
so well, we're gonna you're fuck today. Yeah, we'll get
somebody else, try to get somebody else open. And we
can't run the football. Yeah, at least with Squon we can't.
Everybody else we can.

Speaker 7 (48:32):
Well, part of that is because the offensive line is
beat the fuck up.

Speaker 3 (48:37):
They really are.

Speaker 7 (48:38):
Lane's not all that healthy. Cam Jurgens hasn't even been
in the lineup in recent weeks.

Speaker 2 (48:46):
And where does it start? It all starts up, Frank,
you've always said this for for two years.

Speaker 1 (48:54):
Yeah, Like, I mean, I don't know how much longer
we gotta say that for And and it's something we
take for granted around here, and stout one use a
real thing, but come on, it's a real thing. But
we're not gonna you know, that does get talked about
enough down here to your point. Now, another guy who's

(49:16):
been banged up is Landing Dickerson. So literally four out
of five guys on your line have been banged up.

Speaker 2 (49:22):
Yep.

Speaker 5 (49:24):
He had two huge pre snap penalties on Monday night.

Speaker 7 (49:29):
Huge, and I'm wondering if he's not even a little
banged up.

Speaker 2 (49:33):
Everybody is like the point is is like they gotta
that's where they I know they're trying to figure out right,
nobody's gonna sit here.

Speaker 1 (49:41):
And be like, oh, they're not trying to figure it out,
Like of course they're trying to figure it out, right,
And I think the easiest way to figure some of
these things out is get on the damn ball.

Speaker 2 (49:50):
Lets your quarterback see it longer. Like I guess I
got like this isn't rocket science, Like okay, I'm strong
going on my end. Let me let my veteran quarterback,
now my Super Bowl MVP, get to the liner early
and see what he sees.

Speaker 1 (50:08):
Every time we go, know how to we're better every
time we're in two minute drills, were better, Like, we're
just better.

Speaker 2 (50:13):
Naturally.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
Most offenses are, to be honest with most are. Now
you don't want to be Chip Kelly and do it
every time, but sometimes it's calling for for the spark.

Speaker 5 (50:22):
Yeah, and yeah, you're absolutely right. I mean, how many
times do you are we watching games week in and
week out, we're like, oh, go to hurry up and
try and get some momentum, try and get a spark here.

Speaker 3 (50:35):
Yeah, that's crazy.

Speaker 7 (50:36):
Do you guys think, I mean, do you guys think
having letting Makai Beckton go sign with the Charge, do
you think that was a mistake.

Speaker 2 (50:47):
Yeah, No, I'm much cleeer. I gotta be.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
I think I made it very clear that there was
between two guys that come back here. It was between
Isaiah Rogers and back then. Yeah, and there were two
guys that I thought you needed back. Forget Rogers for
a second, but if I had a gun to my head,
Greg knows this too, Like about a gun in my head.

Speaker 2 (51:10):
I was backed them all day being back because.

Speaker 7 (51:14):
I think we're definitely missing him.

Speaker 1 (51:16):
Listen, you get off the bus and you beat people,
you understand, like when you when you got when your
line looks like that like they did last year, I
mean it's a you know now you can really impose
your will on people.

Speaker 2 (51:29):
You create more You create more space just because you
have bigger guys that can obviously create more space.

Speaker 1 (51:35):
I mean, like Chim Kelly thought process, big guys beat
up on small guys. It definitely was real with this
offensive line last year, and you're seeing a combo. You're
seeing an offense line that's banged up, but you're also
seeing a running back who's been nicked and bruised.

Speaker 2 (51:49):
This year a little bit too, but.

Speaker 1 (51:51):
After monster years, they always have a downer year, like
that's what we're watching again, comments.

Speaker 2 (51:56):
That one on one hey, one on one talk ad tonight.

Speaker 1 (51:59):
This is not hard, not not making any excuse, like
you still shouldn't average under four yards of carry. I
think you're too good for that. I think he dances
a little bit too much too sometimes, trying to make
more out of something when he when he lowers the
shoulder he gets three. Yeah, I mean he walks into three.
But you know I understand as a running back man,
you ain't trying to You ain't trying to dive up

(52:19):
in that whole day either.

Speaker 2 (52:24):
Yeah. Agree, then you're and you're dead that way too. So.

Speaker 1 (52:27):
But but we've shown the other guys. Look at the
other guy. That's what I told you guys weeks ago.
Look at the other guys in terms of their yards
per carry. I mean Big B nine point four A J.
Dillon when he was playing five right ships at four
point one. So I mean, like everybody besides him.

Speaker 7 (52:46):
I gotta answer this guy's question. Cotton Ball for life.
Thank you for checking in. We love the support, I
promise you, though there is.

Speaker 14 (52:58):
No way well the Philadelphia Eagles, we're looking past the
Green Bay Packers on a Monday Night showdown at lambeau Field.

Speaker 7 (53:10):
I promise you there's no way. And I get it,
another big ball game coming up against Detroit at home.

Speaker 2 (53:18):
But there is no way on earth that any.

Speaker 14 (53:22):
Of the fifty three Philadelphia Eagles we're looking past the
Green Bay Packers.

Speaker 2 (53:29):
No way.

Speaker 3 (53:31):
Yeah, I think just to add on now, to add
on to that, it's the teams that win championships don't
do that, right, Teams with like a pedigree of winning,
an expectation to win, they don't do that, especially when
you know, talking about yeah, especially we're talking about all

(53:53):
of the issues we have as a seven to two
football team, by the way, you know, you know that, like, look, hey,
you're right now. You were you were playing for to
be the number one seed this past week, right, and
you had two weeks to prepare for this game, plus
an extra day because the NFL decided to put you
on Monday Night football. And then now we have a
short week going into our new week against the Detroit Lions.

(54:15):
But I can talk about the schedule all day because
the schedule is bullshit. Still don't know the Eagles don't
have back to back home games all season.

Speaker 7 (54:21):
But regardless, yeah, I got to give the Tailgators a
little bit of a rest.

Speaker 3 (54:26):
Yeah, sure, no problem. Look, you you have a four
game lead in the win column in the NFC East.
The Dallas Cowboys are three five and one. Washington's out
of it, right, The Giants are out of it like
that that team that beat you, what three four weeks
ago now just fired their head coach because he's trying

(54:48):
to run his first round quarterback in a concussion protocol
every week. So as frustrating as this team is, I'd
like to feel a little positive, right, like to be
a little pop to night, because again, you are seven
and two, right and you're working through some shit. You're
the number one seed in the NFC and you've essentially
already clinched the division, right, so right now you have

(55:11):
a little bit of leeway to be able to try
to you know, not that I want them to go
out there and lay an egg, to be like, oh
hey shit, wow, we can't just get away with it
like we have been doing, but like you can get
away with a game like that, right, like like what
happened with the with the the Broncos game. Right, you're

(55:32):
winning that game, then you blow it late like all right,
kind of a fluke whatever, Then you get your doors
blown off by the Giants on Thursday Night football in
a short week like, okay, now they've come back out
and they've won three games in a row. Now still
doesn't look great, right, But sometimes you need to see that,
you know, against the good team. Oh, it's not a fluke.
It's not a fluke. Maybe we need to figure this out,

(55:55):
Maybe we need to take it a little bit more seriously.
Not to say that they haven't been right, but you're
getting away with it, and realistically you should know that,
Like looking back at that film or whatever it is.
You're coming in to play at Detroit Lions this week
where that offense is, like I said earlier, phenomenal, like

(56:16):
Jamier Gibbs. You can compare to Saquon Barkley, right, David
Montgomery is better than tank bagsby Okay, aj Brown straight up,
I'm not scared of the offense.

Speaker 2 (56:32):
The one reason I don't get that offense. I can't
get that.

Speaker 3 (56:34):
It's Jared Goff. Okay statues, I'm talking. I'm talking position right, Like, Look,
you can go up against these other teams and because
you're more talented, you can get away with this stuff. Right,
But like we said back at the end of the year,
it doesn't matter how you're playing in September and October.

(56:54):
It matters how you're playing in December and January. Right,
So you're now into November. You're now it's November twelfth,
so you're halfway through November. At this point, it's time
to start, you know, getting ready to flip that switch.
You're in the second half of the season. Now, you've
had your bye week, right, you play the Lions down
the stretch, you play the you play the Bills down
the stretch, you play you play the Chargers on the

(57:16):
road down the stretch. Again, these teams are gonna be
more playoff teams. And like, you have a couple of
short weeks in there. You play, you play Black Friday
against the Bears, right, I think you play another Monday
night football game against the Starters.

Speaker 5 (57:30):
Four of our next five games are prime time or.

Speaker 3 (57:33):
Yeah, prime National TV, so you get an extra day
on the Monday night game, and then you have a
short week following that up. I think that's one of
the Washington games, which again shouldn't be a big deal,
but like you you got to figure this out. So
the fact that you're seven and two and you don't
look great just sets you up for going down the
stretch here as you're figuring it out, and then you're
gonna be the number one seed when you finished thirteen

(57:54):
to four, like I said, the record season.

Speaker 1 (57:56):
So yeah, listen, this is this. I mean, maybe they
have been scheming for it from two weeks. Sometimes too
much info is a bad thing, like going into a
game ahead of them. So I mean looking ahead might
not be the right word copon ball, but to the point, like,
maybe too much information and then your overall by information.

Speaker 5 (58:20):
We see it all the time in sports.

Speaker 2 (58:21):
Yeah, and your game plan for Monday night isn't good enough, right,
I don't know, I'm just spitballing, but it hasn't really
been good enough, you know, period, But there's been games
and moments where it has been uh And I've got
listen in the Lions pressers, they sound like they're going
the war. Yeah, like we took something from them.

Speaker 5 (58:41):
Who came in right before, right before we wanted to buy.
He were talking about it too, like yeah, like like
the link and financial is the vat right, and we're
like killing people in the stands.

Speaker 2 (58:54):
I can't wait.

Speaker 5 (58:55):
I can't baby, hands give me it, give.

Speaker 1 (58:59):
Me wait for them to come in here and absolutely
gets smacked around offensively because like we can be we
if we're playing on turf in their place.

Speaker 2 (59:09):
Oh yeah, baby, I'm I know how they roll there, right?

Speaker 1 (59:13):
Yeah, Like I ain't about a dome team because Doome
teams can beat teams on grass?

Speaker 2 (59:19):
That's not the conversation. The conversation Jack Goff cold weather.

Speaker 5 (59:23):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (59:23):
And we're physical and they're physical defensively and their physical offensive.
But don't get me wrong, you know they want to
be physical all around.

Speaker 2 (59:30):
But but the.

Speaker 1 (59:33):
But hey, pop me cattle, because we want to be
physical as well. And I think they got more holes
than we do. That's that's the difference in this football
game and run everything you said, spot On, I mean
they got playmakers for days. I mean, gives a stud
Montgomery wants to come in give you to change your pace,
which is so important. That's why their run game is
so good because they get your thunder lightning. It works

(59:54):
that way, and and then you get in you know,
Jameson Williams a big play guy.

Speaker 2 (01:00:00):
What was like James and Williams who they.

Speaker 1 (01:00:01):
Got They absolutely got the skill position players to go
put forty up on your ass.

Speaker 2 (01:00:07):
Absolute freaking lillie. But that all changes with one thing.

Speaker 1 (01:00:13):
If I get pressure up the middle on Jared God,
good luck, or they run the ball down your throat.
They are the two ways they beat you, you know.
They run run the ball down your throat and it
sets up big plays. Or you stop the run early
or slow it down, contain it, and then you're starting

(01:00:33):
able to get them in third and long's work. You
smack him early like any quarterback. You smack him early,
like they did to Jordan Love in cold weather. Guys
get happy. He get happy, right windy.

Speaker 5 (01:00:49):
On Sunday night.

Speaker 1 (01:00:50):
There ain't a guy in the history of professional football
at the quarterback position immune to getting smacked around, you
know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
They all had their moments. Doesn't mean guys, you know,
don't hang in there and keep taking big heads, you know,
But you guys know what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (01:01:10):
So the other side of it is, that's a new
play call over there. Do we trust? Do I do
I trust Dan Campbell to go up against Vic Fangio
calling place.

Speaker 2 (01:01:22):
No, that's cute.

Speaker 5 (01:01:23):
I don't trust Dan Campbell at all. I could do that.
The four of us can scheme that game against the
watchting Redskins or Commanders or whatever the heck. They are
right like they've lost justice. I mean, they lost in
the Packers. They got smoked by the Chiefs, and they
lost the Vikings here two weeks ago, so and now,
so that forced Dan Campbell to take over play calls.

(01:01:45):
So his mind, he even said it the other day,
his mind was all over the place on Sunday because
he didn't know what he was doing. Like not that
he didn't know what he's doing, but he was so
ingreened in the in the play sheet that he didn't
wasn't thinking about anything else. So I'm gonna put my
veteran VIC up against boss Ac Dan and uh and
trust it, we're gonna we're gonna be able to figure

(01:02:06):
him out defensively.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
I love it. I love it. And if they're talking,
if Saint Brown made statement running his mouth a little bit,
well that's a bad idea.

Speaker 3 (01:02:20):
Well they're they're doing the thing that the forty nine
ers did a few years ago, right where they're like,
oh we should we If they didn't lose to the
Commanders last year, they would have came in here and
beat us or whatever. I'm like, well, you didn't, but
you didn't you did.

Speaker 1 (01:02:32):
Oh my god, they're doing the game like they lost
to the team we we absolutely smacked around in the
NFC title game. They lost to that team, and they
want to come in here saying that, Oh if we
would add that up, Oh my goodness, Grace.

Speaker 3 (01:02:45):
I don't know if they're necessarily doing that this week.
I know that they were doing that going into the
going into the offseason. I know Almon Ross Saint Brown
was running his mouth.

Speaker 5 (01:02:52):
Yeah, they want they wanted the opening night game because
they wanted the revenge that yep. Yeah, in their minds,
in their mind You're right right. They wanted, Oh, we
would have beat them.

Speaker 2 (01:03:03):
They wanted the commanders that beat the team, beat the
team you couldn't beat. I mean, I don't know what
what you're asking for, babe, I mean, what a bunch
of idiots. Oh I hope, I hope we smacked them around.

Speaker 5 (01:03:14):
Let's god, thirty two twenty four Eagles two and a
half points. I don't even know what the over under
is right now. Hold on, problems were twenty five mile

(01:03:37):
an hour winter. I guess it is.

Speaker 3 (01:03:39):
Going to be forty six and a half.

Speaker 5 (01:03:45):
We gotta wait all day, We gotta wait all day.

Speaker 3 (01:03:48):
Yeah great, yeah, over under forty six and a half
is my guess. I haven't seen it, mm.

Speaker 5 (01:03:55):
Two and a half forty six even so you're right there? Yeah,
all right, all right, fandle or draft gigs probably having
the same, you know, forty six and al All.

Speaker 3 (01:04:05):
Right, sounds good. Twenty seven twenty three.

Speaker 5 (01:04:16):
Birds, twenty seven twenty three you got close one, Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:04:21):
Yeah, I think it's gonna be closer. I think we're
gonna start a little slow, but we're gonna figure it out.

Speaker 5 (01:04:26):
That's why I love like I used to hate it
because he used to try and like project everything right.
But I mean this last week and every week, especially
with the Eagles, just proves how much of a week
the week league this is. Do you know what I mean?
But like every time we're watching, every time you're watching,

(01:04:47):
just any random game, like it's a week to week league. Yeah,
Like what we did on Monday night has no parents
on what we're doing on on Sunday night.

Speaker 7 (01:04:56):
Right, Well, look at the Carolina Panthers the week BEFO four.
They go ahead and upset the Packers at Lambeau. Then
they go home and lay an egg against the Saints.

Speaker 2 (01:05:08):
Ye.

Speaker 5 (01:05:09):
So, and to your.

Speaker 7 (01:05:10):
Point, Greg, in the spirit of it being a week
to week league, I have Philadelphia Eagles beating the Detroit
Lions thirty seven to twenty three.

Speaker 5 (01:05:28):
Holy shit, how about that?

Speaker 3 (01:05:32):
Thirty seven thirty seven?

Speaker 5 (01:05:37):
I always love like when you give your scores, I'm
always trying to figure out how the hell you get there?

Speaker 2 (01:05:42):
Right?

Speaker 5 (01:05:42):
Like in my mind, I'm like, how do I get
to thirty second?

Speaker 3 (01:05:46):
Well? I got it as five touchdowns as we go
for two twice just for fun.

Speaker 5 (01:05:50):
Where are we getting safety?

Speaker 7 (01:05:52):
Yeah? I Jake take the week off, Jake six the
downs and three Jake Elliott field goals.

Speaker 5 (01:06:03):
That networks too, does? That doesn't man too much time in?

Speaker 7 (01:06:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:06:12):
I hear field goals for four touchdowns and three field
goals and three field goals. They're like all that Matt
checks out.

Speaker 7 (01:06:21):
Yeah, I did freeze my ass off.

Speaker 5 (01:06:23):
Today the square gom you wasn't matching?

Speaker 7 (01:06:31):
Good thing. I'm not an accountant, Ain't that the truth? Yeah, dude,
I'd be fucking broke.

Speaker 3 (01:06:42):
Other people.

Speaker 2 (01:06:42):
It is a tough turn around. It's a tough turnaround
month and for fun, A J.

Speaker 7 (01:06:52):
Brown has two touchdowns.

Speaker 5 (01:06:55):
Oh yeah, that's a yeah, I think it's a given.

Speaker 3 (01:07:00):
Say it.

Speaker 1 (01:07:00):
It's hard coming off Monday night winds, especially on the
road too. But who's been against this team?

Speaker 2 (01:07:13):
Yeah? Right, who's been against them?

Speaker 3 (01:07:14):
Like? Just you know.

Speaker 2 (01:07:19):
Whatever, what's it called? I can't think of the right wording,
you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (01:07:23):
But yeah, So that being said, like usually when they
have those these types of like duds, offensively, they come
back and they're usually they're usually pretty electric. Again, I
don't know. We don't know what the weather's gonna be yet,
I guess or do we says twenty of winds?

Speaker 5 (01:07:42):
Yeah, six percent chance of rain as of now, sixty
chance of raine. Not super cold like mid mid sixties,
but they are projecting to have pretty high winds, which
I love when your quarterback has beaby hands.

Speaker 7 (01:08:05):
Boy, it just makes me love my score prediction. Yeah,
well we'll get there. No worries.

Speaker 2 (01:08:18):
Take the over, No, thirty thirty four to twenty, Yeah.

Speaker 7 (01:08:24):
Take the over, Just don't don't bet the house on it.
Maybe just your lunch money.

Speaker 2 (01:08:28):
Is not an over. That would be an under thirty
four sprinkle, No it's over.

Speaker 5 (01:08:33):
No, it's over.

Speaker 3 (01:08:34):
Yeah that's over.

Speaker 2 (01:08:37):
Yeah, yeah yeah over No, No, it stole it obviously
a j after all this, I.

Speaker 7 (01:08:50):
Mean, it would be fitting and think about it's what
this team does though, Yeah, it's what they do, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:08:59):
Joe, they buy into it just as much.

Speaker 2 (01:09:03):
To eighty to eighty three toddies.

Speaker 7 (01:09:09):
Another eighty on the ground Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:09:12):
Like fifty p snog on the ground, just just like, hey,
all right, you guys, the problems here we're eating too. Yeah, hey, hey,
problems right here we're in too.

Speaker 5 (01:09:23):
I do love his response too, Like the more we
talk about this shit, the more dry, like, the more
you know, you're distracting us for everything else. I mean,
I love it, just absolutely love it. And that's who
Jalen is.

Speaker 1 (01:09:35):
You think it takes thirty to win this bill, I
don't know. I think it depends on how we if
we rattle gop earlier or not, right, I think that's
going to depend on a lot. If it takes thirty,
you know what I mean. But I want to believe
in our defense. I want to believe when I watched
last week. I want to believe in our run game
getting better.

Speaker 2 (01:09:56):
Again, you know, defensively like it has and and you know,
I want to keep believing that we're on the uptick here.
And if we're on the uptick and they're coming here
and they got a quarterback, that that is more stationary,
you know. I think it fodes well for us.

Speaker 1 (01:10:12):
I think this is a game where you can take
the football away twice, you can get two picks, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:10:18):
I think this is one of those types of games.

Speaker 1 (01:10:20):
I really do. Now I can go to the other way.
They're damn good football team. I'm not trying to disrespect
them by thirty four to twenty.

Speaker 2 (01:10:26):
I just I just.

Speaker 1 (01:10:28):
Feel like, you know things, we keep winning and all
years bad shit, and I think every time this happens again,
Jamon comes out and balls out. So that puts a
j Davonte Dallas all these guys in player to game
conversations because you just feel like he's gonna come ball out.

Speaker 2 (01:10:44):
After the Giants game, he was smiling, but we do
smiling about he smiled. He's a guy by enjoy this.
Guys enjoy that.

Speaker 5 (01:10:52):
Relax, everybody relax, And what do we get out of
them after that? Right? We get we get to we
get to win in shit? Where do we win after that?

Speaker 2 (01:11:02):
Minnesota? Right?

Speaker 5 (01:11:03):
Yeah? We got to win in Minnesota, and what did
he say? What do you say we need losing again?

Speaker 2 (01:11:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:11:11):
And when Mike QB's got that swagger, we ain't losing again.

Speaker 1 (01:11:17):
We scored twenty eight that week, and then we put
up thirty eight against the Giants for to buy and
then we you know, we put up we had you
know ten in a ten seven game. Right, yeah, so
it got you know, I again, not everything's perfect offensively,
but they got to run the football, boys, I mean,
they gotta be able to run the football.

Speaker 2 (01:11:36):
Ye all, this is mute points if you can't run
it at all.

Speaker 3 (01:11:40):
Ye that being said, I'm taking Dallas Goddard. Yeah, touchdown, merchant, touchdown, Merchant, touchdown, merchant.
The Lions have been getting cooked by tight ends this year.
They've been getting cooked by tight ends this year. So
give me, uh seven for one head and two touchdowns

(01:12:01):
for Dallas gott this week.

Speaker 5 (01:12:03):
Well, we got to come up with with six or
seven touchdowns just to get the no score.

Speaker 3 (01:12:08):
So he only needs.

Speaker 5 (01:12:11):
Four, that's true, you get five three l field goals.

Speaker 7 (01:12:16):
I mean, now I got the math mathing or whatever
the kids say.

Speaker 5 (01:12:20):
That I go for to just to shove it up
Dan Campbell's ass at the.

Speaker 3 (01:12:23):
End of Yeah, you score on your first two touchdowns,
you go for two just for fun. Then it's that
it's sixteen, He's score three more touchdowns. Yeah, Dallas got it.

Speaker 5 (01:12:37):
Eat Tommy, who did you go? Sake one? Do you
go jailing? He went jail. I'll go seek one. I
like what we were we have been doing. Uh he's
over one hundred yards and miking US and triple. He's
over one hundred yards of making US and triple.

Speaker 3 (01:12:54):
Yeah, I can't know.

Speaker 5 (01:12:56):
And then Michael wants a chirp that we that we
hold him sixty Yeah, good job like that that.

Speaker 3 (01:13:00):
I was so mad like he was. He was gone.
That was insane.

Speaker 5 (01:13:06):
He was he was And uh, I got Chucks who's
on Eagles Talk. He put the he put the film
out there, Uh, the All twenty two and it showed that, Yeah,
if he gets through there, yeah he's gone. He's gone.

Speaker 3 (01:13:22):
And then we're like, oh, all right, we won buy
double digits and no, no, no, no. Maybe obviously it's still
not as good, but there's less discourse this week by three.

Speaker 7 (01:13:32):
However, Hey, win's a win, will fucking take it? Correct
The winning Lambeau ship. I'm not giving that back eight.

Speaker 5 (01:13:41):
That's the truth.

Speaker 1 (01:13:42):
The one thing I'll say about the run game that
I noticed guys, it is like they always run strong
side yeah mm hmm. Not enough weak side runs with
a running back at discount. You know, I I know
he can make a guy miss one on one, So
why would I not run week side?

Speaker 2 (01:14:02):
I mean, in a way, why would I not run
more weeks.

Speaker 5 (01:14:04):
Side at times? Show it right? Yeah, we just felt
like every inside zone that we ran, it felt like
that we did the backers knew what was coming, you
know what I mean, and they were there and.

Speaker 2 (01:14:16):
We call it out there there.

Speaker 5 (01:14:17):
I love that.

Speaker 2 (01:14:18):
That's a great clip, yeah, because you know, we don't
get enough credit.

Speaker 1 (01:14:22):
Everybody just talks about us and people calling our ship
out for you, but it happens all over the lake.
And I've been the biggest advocated, Like you can know
what's coming, you still got to go make a play.

Speaker 5 (01:14:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:14:32):
So I as much as like I love that narrative,
like they know we are running, okay, go wank. Go
put a helmet to a helmet, right pad to a
pad and go make a walk Like I mean, I
don't want to.

Speaker 2 (01:14:45):
They know what's coming. Okay, you know something's coming.

Speaker 1 (01:14:50):
It's a runner pands like it's like, oh, we figured
them out, Like that's why you watch tape BIB.

Speaker 2 (01:14:55):
Yeah, you know the guys. You know what team's tendencies are?

Speaker 1 (01:15:00):
Are they they make it sound like it's like I
knew what they were running, So yeah, does it make
it easier? Sure, but they might know where you're running to,
so like, I mean, just go make a block, Like
I hate that shit. That's why I think what like
players win. I think head coaching is always more important
than your coordinators because they create the culture.

Speaker 2 (01:15:20):
You know, they're the main guy and they can calm
things down or whatever the case may be.

Speaker 1 (01:15:24):
I don't know, put a lot of stock. I need
one great coordinator. As long as they got one great coordinator,
I feel good. And that's where we got VIC. So
it's like, you know, I don't I don't care. Like
the different from a play caller is it's rhythm, you
know what I mean. It's not about like them knowing
what's coming or not. It's just about like a little
adjustments and rhythm and and changing up your tendencies you know,

(01:15:47):
mid not even mid game, but on the fly, which
which again for a first time play caller.

Speaker 2 (01:15:52):
Isn't easy to do right. Again not making excuses, I
have not been impressed by Kevin Patulo, but again this.

Speaker 1 (01:15:59):
Guy, I'll keep saying it like AJ's not gonna come
out and be like, yeah, my hamstring bothers me.

Speaker 2 (01:16:07):
Not that it's not saying it bothers him, but even
like it not being could absolutely affect him.

Speaker 1 (01:16:16):
Sure, you know, even if it feels good and it
doesn't doesn't. But you don't get the same, like you know,
you don't get the same stop and go from it.
You don't get some of those things. Like I don't know,
but I do think like we go on that first
drive and we give two targets and we go down
the field. I mean, I just don't know how you
don't go back and yeah you went away. Yeah, and

(01:16:38):
maybe they didn't go away, maybe they tried going back
to it, but like I find it hard to believe.
The only the only one I got I saw was
like Jaen was rolling out this way to go run
and AJ was crossing.

Speaker 5 (01:16:50):
Yeah, that's the screenshot that everybody shows.

Speaker 2 (01:16:52):
Yeah that's a bad screenshot, man, that's pressure. That's him rolling.

Speaker 5 (01:16:56):
Yeah, you're right. Mike is coming on the side and
he he leaked out MICUs where MICA's whole the whole
Michael left and he got nine yards you know.

Speaker 2 (01:17:07):
Not fair.

Speaker 1 (01:17:07):
He probably got twenty five, but still yeah, not fair
because he's rolling and eyes are looked.

Speaker 5 (01:17:13):
I mean, and you want that off? Like do we
want that off? You know, running one way, thrown it
the other way to a j that's picked off. Right.
They were all like, why didn't you just run?

Speaker 1 (01:17:24):
I mean, it's just like the little it's the little things,
Like I like, again, they gotta clean ship up.

Speaker 2 (01:17:28):
But I just don't think it's it's the end of
the world yet.

Speaker 5 (01:17:33):
Uh mystics. Lane was a limited participant in practice today.
She I would obviously he came back in the game.
I would think he's good to go. He ain't missing
this game. But let me let me do pull up.

Speaker 3 (01:17:48):
Is still gonna play this week?

Speaker 2 (01:17:51):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (01:17:53):
Yeah, yeah, I know he got hurt last week.

Speaker 5 (01:17:56):
Uh so injury report limited practice landing Cam and Tyler
great our whole offensive line Awesome.

Speaker 3 (01:18:05):
I love that.

Speaker 5 (01:18:06):
Uh full participants. I don't even know who this guy is.
Kala Domits I don't know Dominate is Ja, Coryan Bennett,
Darius Cooper, Willie Lampkin, and no one's been now Willy
Lampkin might be the solution potentially to those that miss UH.
But guy Beckton, he's he's got a little bit more

(01:18:27):
meat in the ass. He's the guy we stole from
her Yeah, scarred center. We stole him from UH. It
was actually everyone says it's a dick moved by Allie UH.
But we stole him from the Rams right at the
beginning of the year, and he's been on I R H.
I guess traditionally around the league, when they put a

(01:18:47):
guy on I R or you wave a guy that's
going to go to I R, most of the league
lets him just go through waivers so that the team
could claim him again. Ali's like, no, we got so
he's again and maybe you know, maybe you know, something
changes at the right guard position that I know a

(01:19:07):
lot of people are are clamoring for. But I also
find it hard to believe without an injury, the guy
that sets the offense, the tapper right, the guy that
sets the offense that you're going to change that, you
know what I mean, without an injury, Without.

Speaker 1 (01:19:24):
An injury, and I always thought Towers team was a
better backup than he would be starter. And that's and
that's okay, Like and he can still grow into it
and become better. But I also think when you're playing
with different guys alongside it first year starter makes it
hard to just with communications and things like that. So
you know, I'll give him a little bit of a
pass on that for sure. And with these four guys

(01:19:47):
being limited, I'm gooding limited. That's just where that's that's
that's maintenance.

Speaker 2 (01:19:54):
When Wednesday maintenance okay, because there's no reason at this point.

Speaker 3 (01:19:58):
You're in your first real practice to the week, like
he probably did half It was probably like a walk
through or something.

Speaker 1 (01:20:03):
Right they if they did not practice, then it's like, bro, no,
I hear you. Yeah, it's nothing. I don't think that's
anything to worry about. Besides yeah, we know, we know
can't that's a worry and lane. But he came back
in a game, so you think he's just gonna be
a treatment week and.

Speaker 2 (01:20:21):
Be ready to go.

Speaker 1 (01:20:22):
Yeah, and it being Sunday night, giving a little extra
time I think helps us here and and not and
not being a one o'clock game. He's just the the
more the more time the better. Yeah, for sure, eight
hours is a lot, so yeah, we'll take it.

Speaker 5 (01:20:41):
And and let's be real, Lean is just like most
of these players on this team is a petty bitch, right,
He's not gonna miss a game when he could go
up again and after he's going up against him. But
that Penney school is in that game, right. He wants
to be in that game and absolutely own Aiden Hutchinson.
So that way, when people will look at this game,
you're like, Dan Lane Johnson is better than Penny, which

(01:21:03):
he is, right, but the national media wants to continue
to glaze glaze the whatever whatever team we're playing, the Lions.

Speaker 1 (01:21:14):
Yeah, I think I think there's guys who do give
Lane like nationally the respect he deserves.

Speaker 2 (01:21:20):
I mean Troy Troy always does.

Speaker 1 (01:21:22):
Yeah, shakeman, I mean, Troy's a big Lane guy.

Speaker 2 (01:21:26):
So and there's other.

Speaker 1 (01:21:28):
Guys too, but you're right, I mean, the younger guy
always gets the love, always gets uh. He's the best
right back home football. Okay, guys, the guy who playing
for fifteen years that blocks out the.

Speaker 2 (01:21:40):
Sun on one ankle.

Speaker 1 (01:21:41):
So I don't know what else you want, I mean,
but listen, at the end of the day, you got
to start winning up front. Ye, enough with the excuse
is you got to start winning.

Speaker 7 (01:21:52):
Up front, no doubt. The offensive line's got to be better.
They got to be much better.

Speaker 2 (01:21:56):
And stop running and stop running like tosses again to
the short side of the field, Like it's such a
stupid decision when a guy wants to make guys miss,
Like I mean, that's where I'm like, are we okay?
Like now you're trying to get fucking cute, Like stop
getting cute, dude. If you're going to run a goddamn toss,
run it to the bigger side of the field, please,

(01:22:17):
like just have a little feel.

Speaker 5 (01:22:19):
Yeah, give your guys some room.

Speaker 2 (01:22:21):
Like why are we trying to tight Why are we
trying to shorten the field for that?

Speaker 5 (01:22:25):
Like what is that?

Speaker 2 (01:22:26):
What does it even make sense? Like it's more like
when you're talking about a toss play like that, a
guy can run simoi pretty well in this way, So
when you're on the toss like that, you need more space.
This is what I'm saying. Some things are so easy.

Speaker 1 (01:22:42):
Like you sit here and you're like on your chair
and you're so and you're like, come on, because it
is But that's feel right, that's feel that's running the plane,
maybe not realizing it's on the short side.

Speaker 3 (01:22:55):
I mean, I made a joke in our chat before
the show tonight about how like a random Madden user
could probably you know, sometimes call better plays than Kevin
Patula h regarding the toss play. Whenever I was playing
Madden and it had the natural go short side, I
would literally just flip it at the line and just

(01:23:16):
go the other way all the time, all the time.
Give me more space, give me more space.

Speaker 2 (01:23:22):
Tell me quarterback to do that, you know, because he's
my check yeh.

Speaker 3 (01:23:26):
Tell me Madden Madden like fourteen when I got Lachel
and McCoy, I'm not running them short side. Give me
give me this long side.

Speaker 2 (01:23:34):
Come on, give me as much space as possible.

Speaker 1 (01:23:36):
Please, you know that extra that extra five yards of space,
ten yards of space?

Speaker 2 (01:23:41):
Big defensive players of the game. Coo, I forget.

Speaker 5 (01:23:48):
Carter.

Speaker 15 (01:23:49):
No, you can't do that yet, or we're seven to Hey,
you already took a j Now you're gonna go last.
Because I like Jae one Carter too when I took
him last week. I'm I'm just trying to say consistent,
So I'm gonna easy to quite somebody else because it's
bigger than us, you know what I mean, Like I

(01:24:09):
would love to just take somebody Randa right now because
that's how I like the role defensively.

Speaker 2 (01:24:14):
And then he tried to find like the diamond and rough.

Speaker 1 (01:24:16):
Nobody was gonna say, but for the sake of us
continuing to do what we do, knock on wood, give
me jail Carter again.

Speaker 5 (01:24:24):
And he was awesome.

Speaker 2 (01:24:25):
We talked about it earlier stopping the run. He was
freaking fantastic. He was that an That whole line.

Speaker 1 (01:24:31):
Was every snap you know when it's a good run,
playoff the snap, and every snap we were pushing them
a yard back.

Speaker 5 (01:24:38):
Well you you heard what you heard what Jacob said
on that last play right when when we when we
called her out, he goes. It froze me. I didn't
know what to do because they knew what was coming.
And then those two mooses in the middle a Jomo
and Carter blew up that front of the line and
forced that to your point, Tommy, to the short side,

(01:25:00):
to the side where all the help was, and it
was lights out.

Speaker 2 (01:25:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:25:04):
Yeah, Phillips got him like what three or four yards
in the backfield.

Speaker 5 (01:25:07):
Yeah, I'm gonna go Tommy. You talked about Pyler Steam
potentially being a better, you know, better backup right now
in his career. But we saw what the addition of
jail wh Phillips did to Jalex Hunt. Right, It kind
of rejuvenated Jalox Hunt, at least for the last game, right,
he rejuvenated that. Off that defensive line, Jalox Hunt was

(01:25:28):
awesome as well, right, that whole We could go down
the whole defensive line, right, but Jalens Hunt was awesome,
and I think it probably had to do with a
little less pressure off right. He was in that limited
role again, not necessarily limited, but in the not not
playing starter roles, starter snaps in their own certain downs

(01:25:48):
to go Russian quarterback, and that's what he did. I'm
going Jyex Hunt three three tackles, two tackles for loss
of a sack. I love it.

Speaker 1 (01:26:01):
I love it because you know a lot of things,
and and even BG getting like six seven Yeah, yeah,
it just takes a guy off the.

Speaker 2 (01:26:10):
Field a little bit more. Yeah, I mean, it just
takes a guy off the field little bit more, gives
him a breather, and gives your defensive line a little
bit more energy when they're out there, you know, jokes,
hum might be a guy who can play fifty sixties
that's at some point of his career. But it was
a project coming in. Yeah. Uh, and he's he's been
great in that, in that whatever Snap County's act.

Speaker 5 (01:26:33):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:26:33):
Yeah, the guy comes in and he was good in
the run game too. He yeah, yeah, he was. He
was awesome.

Speaker 1 (01:26:40):
Cut it away, you know, it was awesome, baby, It
was awesome, baby.

Speaker 3 (01:26:49):
Towel in the house. Huh. Yeah. So I think that
if you can, if you're if you're front four like that,
rotation can handle their business and do as best as
they can to just contain Gibbs and Montgomery, right, which
I think they'll do a pretty solid job of that.

(01:27:12):
I think Zach Bonn is gonna be the most important
player in this game, though, right, So those your front four,
your front seven is gonna be massive that your front
four guys are gonna be pressing this line to try
to shut down as many holes as possible. There's gonna
be a hole. Zach Bonn's gonna be there to fill
the rest of that hole, right and make those tackles
that you're gonna be able to do. And he's phenomenal

(01:27:34):
running sideline the sideline and for Gibbs for a guy
that can move like that, right, not to say that
like Nikobe can't, but Bonn's a little bit faster, I think,
especially coming off the injuries he's had. So I think
Zach Bonn leaves the team in tackles this week. Okay,
leave the team in tackles and then on a ball

(01:27:58):
that gets either tipped the line, like the arm gets hit. Yeah,
he's gonna he's gonna get a ball just gonna fall
into his stomach. Right, he's gonna get a pick.

Speaker 5 (01:28:07):
We haven't had. We haven't had a pick in a while.

Speaker 3 (01:28:09):
Yeah, we're doing for a pick.

Speaker 5 (01:28:11):
We haven't had a pick in a while. Give me
a gig. Let's get let's get some small hands, small
hands in the wind to go. Give me a pick,
give me a pick. I might change. I might go
back to my boy. Tommy trashed him earlier, read and
reads in for in for a pick soon. He played
well though he you know he forced that fumble. He
broke up that way. He didn't break up that play.

(01:28:31):
That's the fourth down play hit melting ready to chest.

Speaker 3 (01:28:34):
But he was there, and I've seen DB's wave. I've
seen dB on for a lot less than what he did.

Speaker 5 (01:28:42):
They locked him up and they were nowhere near.

Speaker 3 (01:28:44):
Yeah, like, oh, that ball went fifteen yards over his head,
locked him down.

Speaker 2 (01:28:50):
I will say the thing that Kobe brings just as
much of his run defense is his ability to blot
the quarterback. Yes, he blows up up in the at all. Yeah,
and I think it really help has helped us get pressure.

Speaker 5 (01:29:10):
No, he was awesome. He was awesome. And again in
limited role, unlimited time. You know what I mean, play
full stats.

Speaker 2 (01:29:17):
We're all you've got. You thought I had more, you guys.
You guys just assumed. I mean he was just assuming
there was more to it. That was it.

Speaker 1 (01:29:25):
We did And I had no more elaboration outside of
just my eyes saying every time he blitzes, he freaking
smacking dudes. He's smacking dudes and then guys get home
all the time. So he's one of my favorite players
is because he's a winner, and he's smart, he's instinctial.

(01:29:45):
And they said, there's a good, good, really good football player,
the guy we're lucky to have back. As much as
I love Zach Bourn and John Campbell. They're they're smaller.
They're smaller guys, and when you're running, when you're running
in the middle.

Speaker 2 (01:30:03):
It's easier to gash you a little bit more. It's
a little harder to take on those blocks sometimes. And
then that's where Nakobe really helps his football teams. It's
a little different, but you know, you know.

Speaker 1 (01:30:15):
Inside the tackles where it all starts, that dude, that
dude just blows stuff up and it's crazy because he
probably shouldn't he be doing it like this.

Speaker 5 (01:30:27):
Yeah, no, he's probably definitely ahead of schedule.

Speaker 2 (01:30:33):
He said.

Speaker 1 (01:30:34):
Full year guys that are smacking running backs, you know,
put them on their ass like, okay, he's fine.

Speaker 7 (01:30:39):
Yeah, how do you all feel about a Makuba picks six?
Oh player of the game.

Speaker 2 (01:30:51):
Here, you milk a catfucker?

Speaker 5 (01:30:54):
I got nipples? Can you milk me?

Speaker 7 (01:30:59):
We're respectfully passed. Sorry, you're well.

Speaker 5 (01:31:04):
We're talking about Jamen Phillips again, right, Tommy, you brought
up the name of John Campbell again. Because we have
now more rotation in that front seven, we can limit
what Jahad has to do and and and play to
his strength. He's played really well this year. And then
then there's times where he gets exposed because they're trying
to do too much with him so young. Well, Da

(01:31:26):
Kobe returning, Nolan Smith returning, Jalen Phillips being traded here,
we're now allowed to like let Ja Hood almost be
a rookie and just go go be the athlete that
you are and outside of the pants in reverence, I
thought he played really well on on Sunday Monday.

Speaker 3 (01:31:42):
That's the only bad thing bad. The coverage wasn't that bad.
He's just trying to chase down a guy. Yes, right,
like like that's not a thing that he's good at,
but like that's the only thing that I can think
of all year that's going against him.

Speaker 5 (01:31:55):
It's happened twice, right sure, the bus game and this
game where the two ones that you know that they
took advantage of. I'm sure it's happened to other ones,
but those were the two huge plays in a game
where you're like, okay, yep, there, you know rookie got
exposed a little bit. But I also think that was
the drive where they played coverage and they put the

(01:32:17):
foot off the break and allowed dream Bag just to
walk down the field and score. You know, so I
also maybe if that, if that's the same drive, maybe
I don't even put that on on the kid because
they pulled the rains back.

Speaker 2 (01:32:32):
M yeah, there you go.

Speaker 3 (01:32:39):
All right, good stuff, all right, switch years about how
bad the Sixers are in third quarters.

Speaker 5 (01:32:51):
It's it's ridiculous.

Speaker 3 (01:32:54):
They have to be the worst third quarter team.

Speaker 5 (01:32:57):
In his thirtieth it came out again today. Oh oh,
ship would I wanted to show you a whole bunch
of lines didn't practice today, just not not even limited
no practice. Uh well, Terry and Arnold, Edward, Aiden, Hutchinson,
hold on and a seoul to your point, Samuel Porta, Okay,

(01:33:20):
Kirby Joseph again it's Wednesday, but they are all no
practice Terry and Arnold, concussion, Hutchinson, elbow, Kirby Joseph knee
report back, sewel ankle, and vak ankle. Those were all
no practice.

Speaker 2 (01:33:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:33:40):
I know.

Speaker 5 (01:33:41):
Then he got a bunch of guys limited to have
import Decker Frasier, so the three of their offensive line
are were limited as well.

Speaker 3 (01:33:50):
Okay, I know that Sewell went out of that game
last week. Of those other guys go out of the
game last week, do we know off the top of
your head.

Speaker 5 (01:33:57):
I don't remember. I didn't have that game local, so
I was I wasn't watching it.

Speaker 3 (01:34:02):
Mhm.

Speaker 5 (01:34:03):
I mean I had Lions in in Survivor pool, so
I was paying attention to it, but I wasn't watching it.

Speaker 3 (01:34:09):
Yeah, so something to watch.

Speaker 5 (01:34:13):
Yeah, it's come to keep an eye on as the
week goes on.

Speaker 3 (01:34:18):
If it means anything, I'll see they all be limited tomorrow,
they will be full on Friday or whatever. It's all good.
I don't not that I don't like playing teams shortthanded,
because it generally helps you out a little bit. But
like when you beat a team when every when they
have everybody healthy, they don't have any way to talk
about it, so like you just to give more fuel

(01:34:43):
to media. Or I'm in Ross Saint Brown next week.
Oh we've missed. We're missing three of our offensive linemen.
How fuck you, dude, everybody was out there. Yeah but regardless.

Speaker 2 (01:34:54):
Yeah we can.

Speaker 5 (01:34:56):
Yeah, let me see if I can find that six
or stat their top five first, second and fourth quarter
in scoring, like top three maybe even yes, thirty third quarter.

Speaker 3 (01:35:07):
I think they were. I think they were minus eight
and a half going into last night. Then they lost
the third quarter by at least fifteen points, so it's
probably like nine, if not worse than that. And it
I know, it's been really bad this year, right, this
is the worst it's been ever. But like the Sixers
have never been a good third quarter team. No, it's

(01:35:27):
all about year years, it's it. They've been off in
all third quarters. And I don't I don't know what
it is, because like you'll come out hot, right, or
maybe you come out a little slow, and you come
back in the second quarter, and it's always you know,
around you're either up a few, down a few whatever, right,
but then it comes down to like you just get
absolutely blitzed coming out of the third quarter, and like

(01:35:51):
what are you talking about in locker room? Are you
talking about?

Speaker 5 (01:35:53):
Actually?

Speaker 3 (01:35:53):
Those are everybody's scrimming, like scrimming on Twitter? Like what
do we do it?

Speaker 5 (01:35:57):
Like I would love to all because it's it's bad,
It's so bad. Like just if your average in the
third quarter, you you win so many more games if
you're average.

Speaker 3 (01:36:10):
Right, and you've how many of your games have been
one score games at the end of the game at
least five of them?

Speaker 5 (01:36:16):
Right that we got three against the Boston.

Speaker 3 (01:36:19):
Yeah, three against Boston. You had one with the one
you lost in Chicago, right, so that's four, and then
I think there's at least one more of like the
ten games you've played. I forget exactly what that was,
but like, if you're even league average in the third quarter,

(01:36:40):
you're winning by seven points in those games, right, or
you have two more wins, right, So I don't even
know six ers it.

Speaker 5 (01:36:53):
Is points per game or yeah, points per game. By
quarter quarter one they're fifth, at thirty two are two
thirty two point eight or third quarter three they're twenty
three point one, which is thirtieth Jesus Christ. And quarter
four they're thirty one and a half, which is second.
So your top five one, two, and four, but your

(01:37:16):
bottom five, your bottom two three, whatever leagues are are
or teams there are.

Speaker 3 (01:37:22):
Yeah, So you had to win against Boston, four point
game against Charlotte, twelve point game against Orlando, overtime five
point game against Washington, one point game against Boston, two
point loss in Chicago, three point loss in against the Trick. Yeah,

(01:37:45):
so you're and then so one possession games one, two, three, four,
five one possession games and overtime games and then a
game he won by two four points. So seven seven
of those games of your ten eleven games so far, right, Like,

(01:38:08):
you know, if your league average in the third quarter,
not to say that, you know, maybe the game ends
up differently, but it's it's not a one possession game
with thirty seconds to go.

Speaker 5 (01:38:18):
Every game, right, Yeah, not so not crunch time.

Speaker 3 (01:38:21):
Make it a little bit easier on yourselves, right, Get
a little bit easier on yourselves.

Speaker 5 (01:38:29):
Yeah, I mean, I don't know this one sweets as
one in ten record. Obviously they're not one to ten,
but they're thirtieth in net rating in the third quarter,
their thirtieth in offensive defensive rating, thirtieth in points per game, oh,
and end points per game allowed. So not only are
they bad, but they also give up a ton of points.

Speaker 3 (01:38:47):
You're not scoring, and you're also getting outscored by fifteen
to twenty points.

Speaker 5 (01:38:50):
In the quarters, thirtieth and plus minus thirtieth in transition. Yeah,
I mean, it's their thirtieth or twenty eighth or thirtieth
in every statistical category you can think of.

Speaker 3 (01:39:01):
Yeah, I think I texted my cousin last night while
watching the game, it was Yeah, ten points in the
isn't enough of a league going into the third quarter,
and he said wouldn't have been safe and for the
rough twenty five, So like like that's how it feels, like, yeah,
there's no lead that's safe enough going into the third

(01:39:23):
quarter because of how bad they are in the third quarter. No,
And I think some of that might have like I
don't know what it is. Again, I'm not next to
the nose guy less so for basketball I am for football,
So like I have no idea why certain shots go
in and certain shots don't go in, Like you know,
it's a good look. Guys brick them all the time,

(01:39:44):
like it happens. And then Justin Edwards goes four for
four from three in the fourths yesterday. Yes he was,
Yes he was, indeed, but yeah, like I don't know, man,
It's it's frustrating because it's as similar thing with the
Eagles were like look, they're really they're they're better than
they played. But also like you can see where their

(01:40:07):
problems are right like down down the stretch, especially last
night with no embiid, right, Maxie's just trying to run
it by himself down the stretch there, running by himself,
running by.

Speaker 5 (01:40:18):
Yeah, last few possessions bothered me.

Speaker 3 (01:40:20):
Yeah, I don't. I don't like him not to say
that he can't do it. But they're just dribbling around,
dribbling around, drive around, fade away, Like.

Speaker 5 (01:40:28):
Right, there was just no plan though, right, like yeah,
Max is your best guy, but there was no plan.
There was no movement. I know we talked about this, Tom,
I know you love talking about it. Like there was
just no movement for three straight possessions yep, and then
and from anybody.

Speaker 3 (01:40:45):
And on the last play where you got that the
justin Edwards finally misses and then Kelly's there that there's
a driving kick there, like okay, cool, there's a driving kick. Great,
somebody's open and you get a great look. He missed it.
But then because Jayalen Brown didn't box out Buddy Kell,
you easy right there, love to see it, right, but
like it shouldn't be that hard, Like we talked about

(01:41:08):
this last week. I'm comfortable with anybody on the floor.
They're taking that shot. So if Max he's driving and
kicking to somebody, somebody's gonna be open because he's getting doubled. Yeah,
he's getting doubled, right, Or like two guys are like
they're running a pick and roll and then big guys
on him and they're trying to switch back. If you
give a different pass, somebody's going to be opened somewhere.

(01:41:29):
Or if they're gonna take you, you can beat anybody
in the league off the drim right, take you to
the rack, get fouled, whatever you're gonna do. I not
to say that he can't hit the little fadeaway junkers,
but why would you not want to try to go up?
But again, it's it's in game stuff. It's it's hard
to nitpick that, especially when he's putting everything on himself,
because you know, Vj's taking a bit of a step back.

(01:41:51):
I think he's averaging like ten points a game in
his last like seven games or something. So he's he's not.

Speaker 5 (01:41:57):
Just a disappointment according to the dial right, you're gonna
keep dialing in on them, right, he's a disappointment.

Speaker 3 (01:42:03):
Disappointment. Yeah, look up Cooper flag stats and let me
know what disappointment looks like. Okay, yeah, it's it's you know,
I wasn't I'm not expecting them to be the best
team in the Eastern Conference, but you know, clean some
stuff up, please, especially coming out of the third quarter.
Holy shit.

Speaker 5 (01:42:22):
But you could buy notes two factors though, Ray, and
this team has two three.

Speaker 3 (01:42:26):
More wins, right, That's what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (01:42:28):
And this team, you know, doesn't lose that Cup game
last week to Boston, you know, sweeps Boston for three games.

Speaker 3 (01:42:36):
You already win the season series.

Speaker 5 (01:42:37):
You already win the season series. But one left in March.
That doesn't even matter, right, But like the combination, like
you said, the combination of third quarter and then especially
without Joelle and even this year with Joel, because it's
been so off and on what does end of game
look like? You know what I mean? And because you

(01:42:57):
been the third quarter, end of game has to be
such a an emphasis because it's so bad.

Speaker 3 (01:43:05):
Yeah, it's crazy. And then and then after that game
last night, you get the Shams tweet directly after the
game about oh, Paul George is close to returning, thanks man,
he's been close to returning for a month, Like, yeah,
who cares.

Speaker 2 (01:43:20):
Close to return for five years?

Speaker 3 (01:43:22):
Bring?

Speaker 5 (01:43:22):
Bring loads back?

Speaker 2 (01:43:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:43:26):
I still have loads tweets on notifications just for you know,
when he decides to come back.

Speaker 5 (01:43:32):
For the State bo Venture breaking news Bonnie's news man
Love it love my eight Bonnies for the Bonnies news.

Speaker 3 (01:43:44):
Hey, man, those are more fun than hearing about you
know whatever, agents, texting shams, random ship.

Speaker 2 (01:43:51):
So it's true, you think I think you see you know,
I have a no nim be.

Speaker 1 (01:43:59):
I think you see some some some struggles with some stuff. Right,
it's like our scoring just opening some stuff up for
other guys naturally, But I just think, like, you know,
getting George back would be such a plus right now.

Speaker 3 (01:44:17):
Yes, it would, it absolutely would.

Speaker 2 (01:44:20):
It would.

Speaker 3 (01:44:20):
It would help your rotation, it would help you take
minutes away from other guys and make guys pressure down
the stretch.

Speaker 2 (01:44:25):
Yep. And I with Jaron McCain too, Like what's up
with Jared McCain, Like he just can't shoot? Like, what's
going on?

Speaker 3 (01:44:32):
Well, it's a sixers thing, man, of course the guy
gets hurt, he comes back and can't play anymore.

Speaker 2 (01:44:37):
I don't even know what we're doing ten minutes a game,
like we're wearing a brace, you know what I mean? Like,
what the hell is going on around here?

Speaker 3 (01:44:45):
Yeah? Like Luke Luke said it in our in our chat,
like he should have just went to go play a
couple of games of the j league, get his feedback
under him, yeah, which I think would be great. Like,
obviously we could use him up here right now to
help out. But if he's playing ten minutes, he's not
doing any thing. What's the point. Let him go play
twenty minutes, twenty five minutes, get your feedback under you
a little bit, get some get hit.

Speaker 5 (01:45:06):
Get hit on the wrist, right, get hit on your hand. Yeah,
go get go feel that, you know what I mean,
Because I obviously he's gonna be a little gun shy.
It's just natural, you know what I mean, It's just natural.

Speaker 3 (01:45:19):
Yeah, I mean, what what did he play last year?
Fifteen games? Twenty maybe yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:45:24):
Maybe?

Speaker 5 (01:45:25):
Right yeah, right around that twenty.

Speaker 3 (01:45:27):
Like we're like, oh, this guy's gonna be so good.
Like he's still a rookie. He's not anymore, but he's
still a rookie. Hasn't fair season, So you can't expect
this guy to come in and be the guy that
was putting up twenty five points and is limited limited action,
right especially coming off an injury. Two injuries, because he
got an injury last year to his knee and he's
got an injury now to the stump.

Speaker 1 (01:45:48):
So that's why he's gonna play ten minutes, so right,
I mean, I guess, I guess if you're gonna play
him ten minutes anywhere, I guess you played a ten
minutes here, right, I guess because you need minutes for guys.
That take away from some guys. But I mean the
fact that matter is, you know.

Speaker 5 (01:46:05):
But what's what's two three games down there? Right? What's
a week down there?

Speaker 2 (01:46:09):
If you don't if you don't shoot, you don't score, right.

Speaker 3 (01:46:13):
So it like, what why wouldn't you set them down
for a week, Like, you know, what's the what's the
sixers upcoming schedule? Not that it really matters the.

Speaker 2 (01:46:23):
One they got like a pup one.

Speaker 3 (01:46:24):
I feel like, yeah, I know they go to Pistons
on Friday, and that you got. You got the Pistons,
you got the Clippers, Raptors, Bucks another double adder next week.
By the way, Wednesday Thursday. Yeah, you play tomorrow, Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday.

(01:46:54):
So I mean, it's not the hardest thing in the world.
But you're playing the Pistons, You're playing the Clippers, who
are in turns well Raptors box. So you're you're no, right,
half of back to back on the road. So that's
a scheduled loss.

Speaker 5 (01:47:10):
Yeah, we would be the whale play I think in
that if we're talking whales, hello six or.

Speaker 3 (01:47:17):
Plus three hundred that night here you go.

Speaker 5 (01:47:21):
So would they play the twentieth.

Speaker 3 (01:47:24):
They played and of course, and of course Milwaukee won't
have it back to back they played Monday.

Speaker 5 (01:47:30):
They'll be shitting at home waiting for waiting for an
embeedless Sixer team to come in.

Speaker 3 (01:47:36):
Yeah, on the second hand of a back to back
home away. So you're you're getting the Sixers taking a
red eye out to Milwaukee.

Speaker 5 (01:47:43):
Unless they, uh, unless they they flip flop you and
they and they ship Joel against Toronto and play him
against Giannis and Milwaukee. Well that's true, I forgotten.

Speaker 2 (01:47:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:47:58):
No, Now it's all their knee, right, It's not the
knee that you know how it works. I think I
do think it's the other knee, not the one he
got scooped over the Jesus the over the off season,
against the other one that's given him, you know, not
that either knee has been better for him, but the

(01:48:20):
one that's.

Speaker 1 (01:48:20):
Given more soreness when you're making up for the other knee.

Speaker 2 (01:48:26):
Yeah, it's just natural.

Speaker 3 (01:48:28):
I mean, that's that's what happened to my shoulder after
I had elbow surgery.

Speaker 2 (01:48:31):
So yeah, I think they're just prevented. They're just giving
them the game off like they did, just prevent it,
and you can only save him till Friday unless they've
ruled him out, which I didn't think they did or
anything yet. Did they I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:48:45):
Did they practice today? They off today off?

Speaker 5 (01:48:50):
I would as soon they had off.

Speaker 3 (01:48:52):
So, I mean, we'll see. If I had to guess,
i'd say he's not going to play them. I had
to guess then, and because then they play on Friday,
they play Sunday, they playrow all all right, So all right,
it's Thursday now, so it's dead tomorrow and Google so Friday, gotcha?

Speaker 2 (01:49:14):
Gotcha?

Speaker 1 (01:49:14):
Yeah, November fourteen, Joel beans less the game in the
game mhm.

Speaker 2 (01:49:20):
And same with George. So we'll see.

Speaker 3 (01:49:24):
I think he might not see him. I think he
might not see Joel until Wednesday next week.

Speaker 5 (01:49:31):
Yeah, I don't know that he's I don't think you've
seen him all week. I don't think you come out
with a report like that if he's just game the game,
you know what I mean? If he's just you know
what I'm saying, Like, it just seems like the Sixers
wouldn't even necessarily announce that if it was just hey,
we're just gonna shut him down, or they would tell you, hey,
we're shut him down for a week. Yeah, you know,
like to me, at least to me, the way I
read that report or that announcement is he might be

(01:49:53):
out a week.

Speaker 3 (01:49:55):
Yeah. I mean, like, look, you're you're not in a
great spot right now, but you're above five hundred, you're
playing decent enough ball, You're in every game you're playing.
Not to say that you don't want to see him
out there, but like we were talking before, you ease
them back in and then we can worry about I
don't I don't give a shit about a November game.
I don't really care, not that they any games matter

(01:50:16):
more than others. But I'd rather have him been April.
So don't rush him out there now. And if he's
a little sore in his knee, don't put him out there.

Speaker 2 (01:50:23):
You don't.

Speaker 3 (01:50:23):
This game doesn't matter that much, right So this.

Speaker 5 (01:50:27):
Would be though to all, you know, to the constant wondering,
this would be huge week to get actually get Paul
George back.

Speaker 2 (01:50:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:50:35):
Absolutely, you know, I don't think he necessarily helps, you know,
with the third quarter issues, but he definitely helps the
end of game.

Speaker 2 (01:50:42):
Well, I think he does.

Speaker 5 (01:50:44):
But we've had but these issues with third quarter Tommy
have been years.

Speaker 2 (01:50:49):
Yeah, I don't even not like I don't know if
it's been to this.

Speaker 3 (01:50:54):
It hasn't been this bad.

Speaker 2 (01:50:55):
But right to your point, Greg, I get you right,
You're not wrong there.

Speaker 1 (01:50:59):
Yeah, or like just see, like you gotta get stops,
Like stops create good possessions.

Speaker 2 (01:51:05):
Stops create the ability to get on the run.

Speaker 1 (01:51:08):
And I think when you can get another perimeter defender
like that, I think it absolutely you know, it absolutely.

Speaker 2 (01:51:16):
Can help out their quarters to a point.

Speaker 5 (01:51:19):
Sure, right, yeah, and.

Speaker 1 (01:51:21):
Just another guy who can handle the basketball like you
gave me. See the times that Tyreeves can't get by guys, right,
And maybe it's because you're playing forty minutes a night average, right.

Speaker 2 (01:51:32):
So.

Speaker 1 (01:51:35):
Yeah, seeing that, I think it as I don't think
it absolutely helps, because you're just getting another guy who
give you twenty, like another mix and another guy in
the bag who can give you twenty night to night.
And I think that's that's what's so good about this team,
and what could make it so good, sorry, Greg, is
that you just have like Tyrese carrying the load to
being a guy average like twenty eight thirty in that range,

(01:51:57):
and then you get guys like Kelly eighteen, Duell, you know,
essentially twenty, and you get Grimes seventeen and then Dja fifteen,
so you had another guy in there, we're like eighteen
to twenty. It just it just lessens it, all lessons
the burden and it maybe it can gets you, they said,

(01:52:18):
maybe get you better plays in the third quarter. Maybe
a veteran out there helps navigate that a little bit better.

Speaker 2 (01:52:24):
I don't know, I'm reaching.

Speaker 1 (01:52:25):
No, you're right, You're wrong, though, I'd rather still play
better in the fourth than play better in the third.

Speaker 2 (01:52:32):
I'll die on that hill. I'll die on it.

Speaker 1 (01:52:35):
I'll die on the team that does that just has
great fourth quarters all around. But I need to just
be better a little bit, right.

Speaker 3 (01:52:44):
I don't need you to be the best team in
the third quarter in the league. Give me league average,
league average, your league average, You're you have three more
wins right now. Looking strictly at last night's game, Quenton
Grimes didn't close the game out because Justin Edwards was
on the fire, right, So that takes a ball handler
off the floor right there, because you know it was

(01:53:06):
what it was him Edwards, Drummond who can't dribble for shit, Kelly,
who again is fine, and then VJ so like but VJ,
like I said, has been a little absent offensively, but
it's again rookie growing pains, totally fine, but like so
you don't have another ball handler because you don't want

(01:53:27):
just another dribbling the ball either. So like that that
probably went into why MAXI would look like a chicken
out his head off, like just dribbling around last night.

Speaker 5 (01:53:36):
But that's where that's where you're absolutely right. But that's
where you gotta have movement on the offensive end, right,
which week, which we talked about last week, which we
talked about all the time, right, it's I mean, it's
just it's what the NBA is at the end of games.
It's standing around to watch one guy. But when you
to your point, right, when you don't have grinds, you
don't have another And Edwards was hot last night, but

(01:53:59):
when you don't have another consistent lethal type of shooter
and grimes, right, you're just riding the hot hand, which cool,
but then you gotta just you gotta move more, you know,
and and and Tom You're talking about you know, PG
getting twenty, like that's a legit twenty, right, that's not
hoping Justin Edwards is hot for a night to get
us twenty. That's like he's walking into twenty. That's what

(01:54:23):
he is, you know, right eighteen right, Yeah, but it's
to the point where it's there, right, you know.

Speaker 3 (01:54:29):
You're getting buckets. It's not like it's not like, oh,
who's giving us this tonight bukets?

Speaker 1 (01:54:35):
Yeah, I think Matt Grimes Oubray PG, you know, to
be those consistent guys, and then DJ can be a
guy in double figures, does a little bit of everything
and you know, comes up with a monster block you
know last night on JAYN Brown. Yeah, that really you know,

(01:54:57):
could have changed the game if if he doesn't get
a handle on that, he's slamming that down and you know,
who knows what happens.

Speaker 2 (01:55:04):
You know, we might lose that game. You never know,
So big block, for.

Speaker 3 (01:55:08):
Sure, he's gonna give you your spots, right, He's gonna
He's gonna look really good some nights like he did
coming out the gates. He's gonna look bad some nice
because again he's a rookie.

Speaker 5 (01:55:17):
Right, big three last night? Absolutely you had a big
three on a rotation right again. Yeah, a little bounce,
little hot Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:55:28):
For good guys, lucky to little lucky to jarm, lucky jarm,
a lot of straw.

Speaker 3 (01:55:34):
Yeah, if you're looking at points when when everybody's healthy. Right,
you get twenty five from Maxi, you get twenty five
from MB, you get twenty from Paul George, you get
fifteen from Grimes, you get twelve to fifteen from VJ. Right,
you get I don't know six from Drummond, you get

(01:55:55):
like Trendon Wafferdson play. Well, maybe he gives you eight
to ten, right, maybe get eight to ten from you know,
justin Edwards, Right, if you can get that. No, obviously
don't need all the all of those bench points all
the time. But if you're guaranteed to get sixty sixty
five points from your starters, seventy points from your like

(01:56:17):
you're Big three anyway and Maxi and beating Paul George,
you're getting sixty sixty five from those guys, they're like,
all right, cool, you're getting fifteen from grimes, you're getting
ten to fifteen from the VJ. Right, you're at ninety points,
then how many points do you to win a game?
One hundred and fifteen, one hundred and twenty. You can
get another twenty bench points.

Speaker 1 (01:56:36):
Right, Yeah, yeah, I think Maxy playing with Georgian Nmbek
can easily average over thirty a game, right because of
more space.

Speaker 2 (01:56:45):
Yeah, sure, No, I don't think his numbers are going anywhere.
I think he's going to average at twenty eight to
thirty two this year. I think he's in that, going
to be in that range throughout it. I don't see
that going anywhere.

Speaker 1 (01:56:55):
I can see minutes coming down, Like we said, three
or four minutes a game would be nice.

Speaker 2 (01:56:59):
They started to down a little bit.

Speaker 1 (01:57:01):
Yeah the edition of Yeah, yeah, and same with VJA,
his minutes came down a little bit.

Speaker 2 (01:57:07):
So we're just into that. And I think with VJ,
like last minutes the better. Right now. You know, if
he's running twenty twenty five minutes, you're getting the best
version of him. Yeah yeah, yeah, especially for a kid
who's played more minutes and he's playing his entire life
in the last eleven games, so that's where he sees
the sort of pride tiredness naturally. Yeah, so but you

(01:57:31):
know what, run ragged. Yeah, we're in a good spot
getting George back. And then he said I just need
that like.

Speaker 1 (01:57:37):
Twenty minutes from embating Knight, Like I would leave him
right right there twenty at night.

Speaker 2 (01:57:42):
Drummonds played well, man, Yeah, I mean.

Speaker 5 (01:57:45):
He he was. He was huge in that fourth quarter,
that last.

Speaker 2 (01:57:49):
Possession gigantic, and he was even really good in the
Detroit game. Yeah. I was that live, like watching him live.
He was just good. He's had a good, good game.
He's just he comes down with boards. He's just so long.

Speaker 5 (01:58:02):
Machine. He's a machine.

Speaker 2 (01:58:04):
He's so long. You don't realize it on like TV
either how long he is.

Speaker 1 (01:58:10):
Hey hey hey, But yeah, either way, like they you
know they can they can be a really good team.

Speaker 2 (01:58:20):
So we'll see how the rest of the ghost here
or at least the next week.

Speaker 1 (01:58:23):
I would, you know, I would say if you had
the Miami game in, you know, I would hope they
could have a three and two five game stretch here.

Speaker 2 (01:58:31):
I mean, you know, I would love to get those
four and one. I just don't, you know, I don't
like again, I don't know how good they are, right
to be, like, you know four and one, Like you
got the back to back in.

Speaker 3 (01:58:42):
There, yeahs against.

Speaker 2 (01:58:46):
You got you got six.

Speaker 5 (01:58:48):
You got six games before we come on next week?
Uh or home versus Miami, home versus Orlando.

Speaker 2 (01:58:57):
What schedule you looking at?

Speaker 3 (01:58:58):
Maybe three? Three games Friday Friday.

Speaker 5 (01:59:02):
I'm sorry, I'm too weeks. I'm sorry, I'm too weak.
You start at Miami in there, and I'm like, oh,
that's just continuing in the.

Speaker 2 (01:59:09):
Week like five five piece.

Speaker 3 (01:59:13):
That's christ tell me bag and backs to playing.

Speaker 2 (01:59:16):
Yeah, like the season is over then, I mean.

Speaker 5 (01:59:20):
Jesus, we're two weeks from Thanksgiving.

Speaker 3 (01:59:22):
Holy ship, yeah ye.

Speaker 2 (01:59:26):
Ship. Crazy time.

Speaker 3 (01:59:30):
Took off the Friday Thanksgiving this year.

Speaker 2 (01:59:32):
Way Yeah, it's just not even in day.

Speaker 3 (01:59:40):
Yeah yeah, that's a you know, I use vacation hours day.

Speaker 2 (01:59:44):
Yeah, the best way to use them. I actually got
a picture. I'll send you a picture. Guys. It tells
you the best time to use vacation days. Oh yeah,
you got to try all saw Its great. It's a
great level. Like oh and I did it.

Speaker 1 (01:59:55):
I did it, Like just think about on my own
around Christmas time. Yeah, that's when I did it too
like to be home obviously.

Speaker 5 (02:00:03):
Yeah, yeah, to maximize all day.

Speaker 2 (02:00:06):
Kids, see you see the family.

Speaker 3 (02:00:09):
I'm flying to Florida for Christmas this year. I took
I'm flying out on Christmas Eve, so I took off.
I took off the twenty sixth, and I took off
the twenty.

Speaker 5 (02:00:19):
Nine at pre check hope you pre.

Speaker 2 (02:00:23):
Check, no, and you take off to what the other day?

Speaker 3 (02:00:28):
Only six and the twenty ninth. So Christmas is Christmas
Eve is a Wednesday. Yeah, so I'll work that Monday Tuesday, right,
and then I'll have off the Friday, because Wednesday Thursdays
obviously already off days. I took off the Friday. I
don't work Saturdays. I took off the Monday, so it's
essentially a week off more or less. And then I

(02:00:50):
I fly back on Monday. But I'm not gonna go
work on Monday.

Speaker 2 (02:00:53):
So you can't do that game. No, absolutely no, no,
god no, absolutely all right, Well listen, great shot. Once
you guys got anything else. At twelve thirty nine, ummm.

Speaker 3 (02:01:07):
Don Brownski pretty much said that then Cassie won't be back.
Castie's gone, He's gone. Bader's a little cryptic raidersers, Little Crypt.

Speaker 5 (02:01:19):
Crawford will be centerfield, most likely.

Speaker 3 (02:01:21):
To be playing center. Their number one, number one priority
is swah that's what That's what they don't know. Yeah, yeah,
I don't know. I mean, you're looking for a right
hand hitting outfielder, which there's only I think I think
there was like twenty some guys to the like to

(02:01:42):
fit the like, Hey, good right hand hitting outfielders, so
they don't exist.

Speaker 5 (02:01:47):
They don't. Yeah, everybody's looking for right handed That's why
I have a job.

Speaker 3 (02:01:53):
We have one right he just doesn't perform the way
we need him to. And then the other one is
a free agent too, so like whatever.

Speaker 5 (02:02:01):
Yeah, other names that keep an eye on are Bischette
and Bragman. Of course, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:02:05):
If I don't know how I feel about Bregman, I'll
pick would I'll take I'd rather have Bishette than Bragman.

Speaker 5 (02:02:14):
I think, well, Bischett's definitely younger, but that you just
don't know what the transition to third. You're essentially most
likely signing him to play third. That's what you would do.
You're not gonna put him at second, or you could
put him a second, but you would put him at third.
He is younger than Bregman, but obviously Bregman's got that
experience right.

Speaker 3 (02:02:34):
Again, Like I wouldn't hate Bragman. I just don't like
looking at his stats the last couple of years, they're
basically Alec Bohm. Yeah, you know, you're you're taking a
more expensive, older Alec Boem. Again, he's one World Series,
so again you're getting that better in presidence type thing there.
But how much do you want to pay? I think

(02:02:55):
I think he's like thirty one or thirty two. Yeah,
so what are you going to give him? One a
team where you already have a couple of aging stars
and you're gonna you're in theory you're gonna resign Schwarber
and you're gonna resign JT. So you're gonna sign another
thirty plus year old guy.

Speaker 5 (02:03:11):
And no, but like, I w with you one because
I'm and I'm sitting here like, no, I don't want
Shorebert because he's gonna be a four or five year extent.
You know, it's gonna be a four or five year deal.
And I'm like, I don't want to go that far.
But then yet I'm like, yeah, so I'm Breagnan knowing
it's gonna be a four.

Speaker 3 (02:03:26):
It's the same thing.

Speaker 5 (02:03:27):
So real mute though, I think to me, real Muta
has got to be the guy.

Speaker 3 (02:03:34):
He has he has to come back. There's he has
to come back. And I don't want to give Shober
a five year deal, but if I would want, I
would love to give him three. Right, But like, he
has to come back. You can't. You can't lose fifty
home runs out of your line.

Speaker 2 (02:03:49):
No, you can't lose the leader of your locker room.
You can't do it. You just can't, hear Greg, I
completely agree with you. It's not my money. I don't
care when it comes that that part, I I I
don't care.

Speaker 1 (02:04:01):
So he has to come back now. But that's why
I double down. That's where I go Boba Schett.

Speaker 2 (02:04:06):
Then I go younger. I go younger, and and and
I transitioned on the third base, Like, dude, if you
can play middle, you got the feet, you got the
reaction to play.

Speaker 5 (02:04:16):
Yeah, yeah, I'm with you there.

Speaker 2 (02:04:18):
I ain't worried about that. And and the bat, the
bat's good enough. You gotta right in the bat.

Speaker 3 (02:04:22):
So like anything, younger and he hits contact.

Speaker 5 (02:04:26):
I love my my issue though, Tommy, and it has
nothing to do you tell me how you're trying to shore.
I'm we're in, but like, I can't keep running it back.

Speaker 2 (02:04:37):
It's not you know, offered, it's not that's only one guy. No, no, listen,
it's not ef You're going to Crawford and right, and
you're you're gonna say it's Bader's back, like it's it's
not running it back if you're changing, if you're really
changing it. Last year is a run back, man before
line up everything. Once you throw some different some card

(02:05:00):
balls in there, now it's a different look. Yeah, vibe,
it's it's it's you who knows what a different player
does in the situation, Like who knows what kind of
you know you bring? Now you get contact guys, if
you get Crawford. Crawford's up here in Bochette. Now you
get too, contact guys in your life, which is so
important to what we're trying to do and what we're
trying to change. So you know, and and you know again,

(02:05:23):
I'm not paying bait or a ton of money, but
I'll overpay him to keep them go.

Speaker 3 (02:05:28):
Back and depending on whatever you do there, like if
you get a Bashett, you're gonna play on a third base.
You have the option. You have the option of either
move Boom to play first and move harder to the outfield,
or you can trade Boom to like the Angels and
go get Joe Adell or something like that. Right, you
can go and try to go get a guy like
that who can again change your change stuff up, right,

(02:05:50):
Taylor Ward one of those guys.

Speaker 2 (02:05:53):
Yeah, I'd be trying to trade out boone for right
handed out there, right, So which is might not be
as good as.

Speaker 1 (02:05:59):
Him, might not be as good it is him, right,
but it's it's it's a change. And then I go
sign Bishet, and I think I have a pretty I
think if I did that, we're bringing up Crawford. I
feel good about my all season because obviously you bring
Alvarado back. I already feel good about my all season
because now like my eighth ninth is handled.

Speaker 2 (02:06:20):
It's gas City, right, so.

Speaker 3 (02:06:23):
Starting rotations back for the most part, right, if you
could somehow figure out how to keep Rangers for AZ,
you're cooking with gas Hater will be up next year.

Speaker 5 (02:06:33):
I hear I heard a theory on on the whole
ranger thing, right, So so Lozarro is obviously up for
a deal after this year, right after this year, you
have to make a decision. And it's just going a
couple of weeks back, and they basically said, go offer
Jesus Lozarto like eighty cents on the dollar, right, so
paying like eighty eighty percent of what you really would pay. Yeah, right,

(02:06:57):
And if he says no, no, ship him off and
keep Ranger.

Speaker 3 (02:07:04):
Look, I mean I wouldn't hate that. I love I
love Ranger. But again, Lozardo was great this year.

Speaker 2 (02:07:09):
I think, Yeah, I rather guy who pitches, guy who
got that too.

Speaker 5 (02:07:14):
Yeah, but it'll be interesting. I mean, it's I think
now that even though free agency has been started, I
know the awards just ended. I love that Sanchi got
second unanimous second. That was awesome. Spells I love you
to death, But come on, man, Paul Skeins was a
cy young dude, Like, let's come on.

Speaker 3 (02:07:35):
We talked about again.

Speaker 5 (02:07:37):
And this is from a guy who had a Sanchi,
you know, cy young ticket, right, So I put my
money where where I thought it was. But not that,
not that that matters any but he won. But I
love that Sanchi got thirty votes for second place. Second.

Speaker 3 (02:07:51):
He was the consensus second yes in the National League.
So great, and again, like we talked about this back
in like August, wait three, Yeah, if he if he
has this good stretch, he's got a chance to win,
and he didn't. So Paul Skins, Yes, awesome, no problem.

Speaker 5 (02:08:08):
Yeah, you're right, you go dominate that stretch that we
talked about. Yeah, and they they almost can't take give
it to you, and was can't not give it to you,
but you didn't. So Paul Schemes being nasty.

Speaker 3 (02:08:20):
Let it let out and you're one point nine to
seventy al right, Yeah, disgusting. I can't believe that there
was a catcher at Air Force. Yeah right, insane.

Speaker 5 (02:08:32):
But him and scoobl talk about all the time though,
like they were late bloomers. Yep, you know scoobl wasn't
good till you know, you'll tell you all that was
twenty six. Yeah, we're telling, we're telling. Yeah, we're telling
twelve year olds. You're not you can't play anymore? Like really, yeah,

(02:08:52):
it's crazy, but I but guess where I was going.
And I think we're going to start to see things
heat up now that the awards are done.

Speaker 2 (02:09:00):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (02:09:01):
And what's winter is Winter meetings now? Is GM next month?

Speaker 5 (02:09:06):
Are now next month? Like the sixth through the eighth? Uh?
But yeah, we'll see what happens. Yeah, I'm interested, obviously.

Speaker 3 (02:09:15):
I would like I would like for baseball to do
a lot more winter meeting stuff. There's over the last
few years it's been a lot more drag it out,
get closer to the spring training now. Plus with the
with the lockout looming after this year, are guys gonna
hold out for more or they're gonna get money and
they're gonna sign right away just to take wherever they

(02:09:37):
can get.

Speaker 5 (02:09:37):
I think they're gonna take it this year. I would
assume that, like all the guys out there, are gonna
want to make sure that either it's a one year
deal or it's front loaded, or they're gonna make sure
that their contract is on the books this year, so
that way, whatever happens, you know, I don't think you
can void it out at that point, you know what
I mean?

Speaker 3 (02:09:56):
Yeah, for sure, but I don't.

Speaker 5 (02:09:59):
But who am I right?

Speaker 3 (02:10:01):
Whatever? We can worry about baseball in March, but you know,
there we go.

Speaker 2 (02:10:05):
Yeah, go birds, go birds, go Sixers, go fly guys,
we'll see you next Wednesday, A two D Wednesday nights.
We love you, Yeah, appreciate you.
