[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As well, but certainly good for the prospects of Drake London, who had a career best game, 11 targets, 125 yards. Kyle Pitts also coming to life, coming to life a bit in that offense. Finally, right? But what's funny is that they can't run the ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] on the ground. The one thing sort of saving Bijan from a fantasy perspective at least is he's running a ton of routes. He ran 45 routes yesterday, which is the second most of any running back


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This season's, uh, it's being heavily utilized as a pass catcher, at least, uh, Tyler Algier is still getting a lot of the early down work there as well. But hopefully this can, I don't know if this is the spot for the Bichon breakout, but yeah, it's, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not exactly going as I think a lot of Falcons fans and Bijan backers had hoped for.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and he's struggled, he's struggled the last two games, Katie. I don't know if the shoulder, uh, he's had a shoulder injury, probably operating less than a hundred percent, but yeah, two of the worst games, uh, recent memory for Devonte Adams, probably had the Bill Belichick treatment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Last week, uh, it seems like a distant memory from when Davante Adams was just absolutely dominating that Steelers defense on prime time. But in theory, this should be a spot, uh, he could potentially get back on track here, regardless of who's playing quarterback. But it's really been Chikobi Myers has been the engine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would agree here with Emory here. I think, uh, if there's no Montgomery and no Jamir Gibbs, as good as that Lions offensive line is, as good as their run blocking scheme is, uh, those misses will be felt heavily. Uh, yeah, not having David Montgomery in the backfield.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had fantastic season, been the engine of that Lions rushing attack. That's been so effective. I have been impressed with golf, but you make him one dimensional suddenly. I have some big question marks. I think the Baltimore defense, especially in the back end.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Has been very good as well. So I actually like the Ravens in this spot quite a bit, especially if both those backs aren't able to suit up in this game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did. I saw a lot of people, uh, spending their entire, uh, budgets in fantasy picking him up. Uh, I really think


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The performance he had two weeks ago was the result of him and James Connor being the only two.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, healthy, dressed backs for the Cardinals, not to mention this is in an offense where I have a lot of confidence in the running game moving forward. Uh, I was on the Rams as a side last week. I just think this Cardinals team has played well above expectations all season. Princeton and I.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We both discussed it. I really think they're headed serious progression candidate here. We saw it last week, or we saw it yesterday against the Rams. I think the Seahawks are a big mismatch for this Cardinals team. Not sure if I'm ready to lay that many points with them, but I definitely think the Seahawks are a much more talented team and will have a lot of success in this matchup.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I agree with Emory's take regarding Kenneth Walker. He would certainly benefit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Seems to hunt for the big plays a lot, uh, if he was just a little bit more patient there, but I think the Seahawks team will make quick work of this, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of this Cardinals team, which I think is overrated at this point, and I think the Seahawks are the rightful large favorite.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Justin Herbert has one of the lowest average depth of targets of any quarterback in the NFL. Despite having elite arm talent, he just really doesn't take a lot of chances down the field. The offense really hasn't looked the same without Mike Williams too. Uh, Quinton Johnson, the rookie wide receiver, just not very polished. I don't think he, I think he's a developmental


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Another interesting stat I heard about Justin Herbert was he has the least, uh, turnover-worthy plays according to PFF.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As well, the Chargers offense is just not nearly as explosive as you think it would be when you look at the talent on them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got my eye on Christian Watson running a full compliment of routes. Uh, Bronco's defense being very susceptible to speed, especially in, uh, the back end. So definitely think he could get behind their defense potentially.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and I think, uh, the, the Packers could really use Aaron Jones back healthy. Hopefully the extra rest, uh, has him close to a hundred percent surprise and active last week. But yeah, I'd like to see him back in that backfield, uh, kind of give them a little bit more pop and some, uh, yeah, a little bit of explosiveness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Jalen Carter also banged up. I think his, uh, massive loss. I don't know if Bryce, uh, Bryce Hall, excuse me, is going rushing that touchdown, uh, towards the end of the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, on both sides of the football injuries starting to pile up there for them. Uh, Darius Slay was also out last week. So that's, that'll be a big, uh, boost to Miami's passing game if he misses this game as well. So yeah, just a lot of injuries piling up for the Eagles. Uh, so it could be a good spot for the Dolphins. I agree.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Welcome back to the Pick Six Podcast and we're looking at week seven of the NFL season today. Katie Mox and Will Brinson here. Joined by sports lines finest, RJ White and Alex Selznick, aka Prop Stars. This episode of Pick Six is presented by Fandl Sportsbook. Make every moment more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So make sure that you see them there along with the rest of the crew. The last episode, uhm, in the feed had Brinson, Brady and Ligier explaining the scoring drought in the NFL this season and playing a little buyers and sellers before the trade deadline. You can check that out on our YouTube channel or anywhere that you get your podcasts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, let's bring up the betting record from last week, Harry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We had it, and then we lost it. Week 6 was a backslide for most of us, except for RJ, whose plan to overwhelm us with bets and ketchup seems to be working. And for the third straight week, Prop Stars got robbed of a winning record by just a handful of yards. Some bad beats there for our Prop Stars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Guys, how are we feeling? Brynson and I had kind of a tough week, two and four.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I started out slow and then I started to kind of get hot. Just got over 500 and then we're back down to 19 and 20. But guys, we will give it our best shot once again this week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are subject to change as well as the odds are all the way up until kickoff. We're hitting these about 2 p.m. Eastern on Thursday, so definitely make sure that you check with your book before tailing any of these bets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, Stafford, it is. Okay, let's start with the first matchup we got here. The Cleveland Browns laying a field goal at the Colts. This total 40 and a half. Is it still 40 and a half? Yes, it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Interesting matchup here, because you gotta think the Browns coming off a pretty emotional win over the 49ers. The defense really, really held strong, but that's gotta be a very physical game. You think they gotta be a little bit gassed here because that was, again, very physical, very emotional.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then you got the Colts here, uh, Minshew coming off a pretty bad game for him against his former team. RJ, you're leaning towards, uh, Indianapolis here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] R.J., or excuse me, props. Any thoughts on players in this game?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and what his stature looks like. Uhm, okay, moving on. Falcons at the bucks. Bucks laying two and a half here. This total again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very low, 37 and a half. We actually have a lot of best bets on this game. RJ, we'll start with you. You got a little teaser.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, well, you know, I always give out quarterback interception props, um, usually taking the over on them. And then last week I decided to give...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jimmy Garoppolo, uhm, some love and say that he wouldn't throw his first interception and he threw it on the very first, uh, drive of the game. So we're going back to our roots and we're fading quarterbacks in the interception market. Desmond Ritter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that to me is a recipe, uh, for opposing quarterbacks to throw interceptions. The Bucks have hurried pretty much every, uh, quarterback to an interception, except for Derek Carr. You got Cousins and Goff, both threw two picks. Hertz and Fields also turned the ball over once. Uhm, so give me Ritter to, uh, throw a cookie here at minus 114.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, well let's not get anybody sued. I'm going to fade the Patriots team total under 16 and a half. Yes, they scored 17 last week against the Raiders, but they have the second worst offense in the NFL, averaging just 11 points per game through six weeks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The two weeks prior to that, we all know all they scored was one field goal, um, in two different contests or, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Throughout two different contes, uhm, and the Bills have the third rank defense, uhm, allowing teams just to put up 14.8 points per game and the Bills have played actually good offenses, which the Patriots are not. So yes, lower scoring game wins all of the things. Give me the under 16 and a half for the Patriots.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, we're gonna take a quick break here when we come back. More games, plus we have a new segment where everybody is involved. You're not gonna wanna miss it. We'll be right back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Welcome back to Fixix Podcast. We are doing a new segment this week where we each go around and select a game for a four-leg parlay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Um, and then a second is by the end, we have to have at least one large plus money dog in there. I guess it doesn't have to be large. It's any plus money dog. This is being called the Pick Six Parlay. It is sponsored by FanDuel. Make every moment more. RJ, you had the best record, um, last week, so you go first.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Give me the Lions plus 130 over the Ravens. I think that's a mismatch. Uh, anyways, I'll get into it because it's one of my best bets, but what, what is that? Okay. So we've got.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rams, bucks, lions, all money line at seven to one. That is your pick six parlay. And this is brought to you by FanDuel. Make every moment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nice. Good first start. Alright, well this is our first parlay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm all in on Detroit. I gave it for the parlay. I'm giving it now. Uh, Lions, Moneyline plus golf over one and a half passing touchdowns. I know a lot of people are worried about Jared Goff becoming one dimensional now that the run game, um, is a little bit questionable with Montgomery out and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pickett, Ryan Tannehill, slash Malik Willis. Like, it's not like they've really been tested in the red zone, um, either. And you look at someone like Jared Goff since week 10 of last season, Goff leads the NFL in EPA per drop back at 0.23 and ranks second with, uh, in his pass rating at 105.6. Yes, no Montgomery. We'll see what happens, um, with Gibbs and,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Ravens are always going to be a tough test in the ground game, but the Lions run defense ranks fifth in the NFL in terms of success rate at just 31.7 allowed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think this game has, has the lions all over it. I know a lot of people think that this is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The best team in the NFC right now. I don't know if I necessarily believe that, but Jared Goff also, um, he has had at least one touchdown in six games so far this season. He's had two and 50% of them and he's hit over on this prop and two of his last three. So if they're gonna win with the passing game, then Jared Goff has to get at least two passing touchdowns. So those are my two best bets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gary, change this to three, even though I do think lines went out right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love that. Alright, moving on. The Steelers will be at SoFi Stadium to visit the Rams. Rams laying a field goal. It's interesting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is there just getting home field advantage? Although I do think there will be more Steelers fans there in Los Angeles than there are Rams fans. This total 43 and a half. Have we seen any spread so far over a field goal?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, there is that one. Otherwise, very, very, very tight spreads here. Uh, Brinson, you talked about Matt Stafford at the top of this show for fantasy. Is that you leaning on him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, ever since James Connor, uh, went down, it's just, that run game is practically non-existent at this point. Next up, the Chargers in Kansas City, the Chiefs slaying 5.5 at home. This total is 47.5.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, the Chargers usually play up to the Chiefs. Uh, Justin Herbert has been known to win a few times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In Kansas City, nobody has any plays on this side, but RJ, what's just kind of like your analysis of this matchup?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, moving on, uh, this, this game is ugly. I want nothing to do with it. Packers at Denver. Line is virtually a pick on Packers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Minus one and a half. Uh, RJ, you like Green Bay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I told you, I got dogs for days! I like the Finns, uh, Moneyline as well, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, I'm taking a money line for the- but for purposes of this show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will do two and a half, uhm, just for my record purposes. But look, the Eagles lost to the...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lowly Jets, I guess you can call them, although they're a little bit frisky here too, last week. And normally I would say that the Eagles are primed for a really big bounce back, but I don't believe that this week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Matchups, obviously we got to watch the Lane Johnson injury. He's got, I don't believe it's a high ankle sprain. I think it's just a regular, a grade one ankle sprain. Some reports I read say he's totally fine. He's going to be there. Other reports, uhm, he's still questionable. So that obviously is going to be a really big indicator of how this game goes. But look, the Dolphins have swam fine on the road, two and one straight up, two and one against the spread.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I also like this, uhm, over at, uh, what is it, 51 and a half now, which is great, cause it was at 52.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think we're not even talking about it. It's like the Alabama quarterback bowl, right? You got Tua, you got Hertz in prime time. Only Mack Jones is left out of the Alabama.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will say, because I am on that, uhm, over as well. The over has hit in five of six Miami's last, uh, road games and also it's 2-0 at Lincoln Financial this year. So I expect some fireworks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, that's gonna do it for our show today. Let's go ahead and recap the picks for our best bets this week. Harry's gonna throw them on screen. Brinson, talk to us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am taking Ritter for an interception New England under their team total of 16 and a half. I like Detroit Moneyline, but I've switched it up on y'all. I'm taking the points with them as well in terms of this contest. Give me Jared Goff over one and a half passing touchdowns and then Miami again like them to win out right here, but I will take the two and a half points and also the over 52 RJ.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love it. Brinson keeps it very tight with just the spreads and the rest of us have a bunch of other things, uh, trickled in on there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unfortunately, I was not here last week, uhm, to make picks and make up for my horrible no-win week seven.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This standings, uh, Brinson went three and two. RJ, don't let RJ heat up five and one. He's now 27 and 24.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't keep a good dog down. R.J. White is coming through now, having the most wins. Actually, he's, he's beating Euprensen now, 27-24.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, alright, let's get into week nine here. And guys, if you're listening to this tomorrow or at any point over the weekend, this is Thursday at about 2 p.m. So please note that lines and odds are subject to change all the way up until kickoff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, alright, let's start here with a game that I have quite a few bets on. The Dolphins at Kansas City Chiefs, but really it's in Germany.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a half, uhm, I'm gonna go ahead and, and, and I talked about this on the Monday show. I like the Chiefs here laying the one and a half. I think that they win and they win.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Handily, you know, the first time in Patrick Mahomes career, he lost on the road to an AFC West opponent. And of course it was the Broncos. It was even.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Saltier. He had a flu game. He hurt his hand a little bit, but I do expect him to bounce back. He's 14-3 straight up after a loss.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if you look at this Miami team, uhm, cover your ears, Harry, our producer, they really haven't beaten a team with a winning record at that time since week three of last season. And they really struggled against top tier defenses, which we know that Kansas City does have. So I'll take Patrick Mahomes in the bounce back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I also like Tyree Kill to get a touchdown because obviously I think they're gonna win, uh, or excuse me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Dolphins will score, so I do like him to get a touchdown. He is, I think, ranked first, right, in touchdowns with eight this season, second in receptions at 61, and he's had a touchdown in seven of eight games, including the last four.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I've hedged a little bit here with the Tyreek touchdown, you know, so look, but I, I just think Patrick Mahomes doesn't lose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, if Matt Stafford does play, taking for an interception is one of my favorite bets, plus with a banged up throwing hand there, he might be a little bit... RUDE! ...off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what? It makes money, Brinson. That's all I can say. Moving on. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the Houston Texans. Texans laying three. Let's see if the line is still there. Yep. And this total


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had, I had, I had Jahan Dotson on my fantasy team, but I had him on the bench last week and I regretted it, so this reminds me I gotta move him up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would be a big one. Uh, alright, moving on. Chicago Bears at the New Orleans Saints. Another fun one on the board today. Saints playing eight and a half. This total is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 41, uh, we got a few bets on this game. I'll start, uh, with a prop and the secret Bejit Man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Taking him under his longest completion. It's at 31 and a half. He has completed just one pass of 25 yards or more through his first two and a half games. The Bears have been pretty conservative with him, uh, which of course makes a lot of sense considering he's brand new to the NFL, but the Saints have one of the best, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, why don't we make RJ's teaser the official Pic Six podcast teaser every week? Because it hasn't missed yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We were all over Christian McCaffrey, but now he's in the MVP talks, which is wild.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Now he's, he's trickled into other talks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do whatever, I just, there was no way I was taking the browns.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, it's already locked just because RJ doesn't like it doesn't mean that that's not your pick, for instance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, versus the Bengals. And look, I know the Bengals look like one of the best teams in the NFL, completely dismantled the 49ers. Joe Burrow appears to be all the way back, rushed for what, like 47 yards, throwing downfield, getting Tyler Boyd involved. And the Bills have been hit or miss. It's been a bit of a roller coaster for them, but they tend to play down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To lesser teams, uhm, and show up for the big games like they did in week four versus Miami.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, since Demar Hamlin collapsed on the field. I think that they show up in this game. I think we see a good performance from Josh Allen. So add the Bills plus 108 to this parlay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I mean, when I look at everybody else on here, it's like Chargers jets, Panthers bears.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, next one, finally an exciting game. People are looking forward to see the Seattle Seahawks at the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens are laying five and a half, this total 44.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, this was the one that Emory said on Monday to take the over, right? This was one of those uhm, yeaah, okay, you're not in your head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so if you listen on Monday, hopefully you took that as one of our, what do we call those? It's a fandal segment, the per the anticipation place as an anticipation place. That was one of them from Monday. All right, RJ, you are taking the points with Seattle. You've been high in Seattle all year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, yeah, we don't know about PJ Walker, I don't think quite yet. I think Deshaun Watson has been a full participant in- I don't think it matters. I'm taking the-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it is. Either way, I'm taking the under 37 and a half. I just don't know who exactly is scoring points. You look at the Cardinals on the road, the most they've scored is 16 points this season, and then you've got Clayton Toon making his very first


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Does play, which it seems like it's trending that he's not. We talked about this on Monday, that what is it a sprained right rotator? He doesn't look good anyways. Like I don't expect a good offensive performance from him as well. And PJ Walker has been a little bit hit or miss, so I'll go under 37 and a half.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kyler Murray up against the Browns defense in his first game coming back after us. I mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, you cannot change your pick, Brinson. If that's the losing leg, that's the losing leg. Okay, fine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Welcome back to the Pick Six Podcast. We are looking, uh, this is our pick show on Thursday, sorry, a text message came through and I was reading it and then, uh, hello and welcome back to the Pick Six Podcast. Alright, looking at the leads right here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, it was somebody telling me that the, I guess the NYC Marathon is this weekend, so I'm on the Sunday show and there's gonna be some road closures, so that, that text message just popped up, and uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you know, I do what I can. I only run when being chased. Uhm, alright, next up, let's talk about the late slate game games here. Any of us Colts laying what two and a half?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, versus Carolina Panthers, this total 43 and a half. Uhm, I talked about this on the Monday show. I'm taking the over in this game in the Frank Reich revenge game. I think that the Panthers offense is going to play a little bit better. And under Minshew, the Colts have actually gone over their team total in the last three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Games, uhm, RJ, you've, well, this is one of your teasers and you also have Profit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's, what's the Minshew interception problem? I gotta look this up considering. Keep going.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's go, we already know I'm on bills, uh, plus the one and a half.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, that's gonna do it for our show, guys. Let's go ahead and recap these picks. Throw em up, Harry. Rinse in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'm going to take Tyreek Hill for an anytime touchdown, but I have KC winning minus one and a half. I'm taking Secret Bejitman under 31 and a half.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yards for his longest reception, the under 37 and a half for Arizona and Cleveland, the over and, uh, Indy and Carr 43 and a half and Buffalo plus one and a half.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, a lot of money on the board there. Thank you everyone for joining us today. That is the show. Make sure you tune in on Sunday for the recap show with the super friends and remember to like, comment and subscribe on our YouTube page. If you're listening to the audio version only download, follow, leave a five star review and tell your friends to listen and watch the pod. We'll see you next time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In close. I would go Falcons or Rams or Patriots, but Steelers!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then get your sports any time you want them. Big trade news overnight to discuss. Because we know you need sports all the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I've seen all of them, by the way. I can admit to that. How many have you been to?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yea, but you know, here's the thing about Ryan. He has gotten a little too cool for school. You know what it is? He scared a Rick Spielman. Which should not be the case, because Rick Spielman has no juice or power or anything over Ryan, but he scared him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you like french fries, have the french fries on the side. They don't need to be on the damn sandwich, okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. And so, uh, well, there's some good Italian restaurants in Pittsburgh, by the way. Really good ones. And, uh, I can't remember the names of them, but I've gone there. Back in the day when the Jaguars used to go there, when I was covering that team, they used to stay at the William Penn Hotel, by the way. It was a fancy hotel. I'm like, I walked in there and I'm like, what is going on in here? You know, it's like unbelievable.

[Assistant] It's because my A1C was up, that's why the doc put me on it and it's a byproduct. But that's the commercial.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Those Lacoste shirts are back in style again too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My, Ryan and Matt Corral, so who's better right now, Matt Corral or Pickett?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Matt Canada's terrible, the offensive line's terrible, Dodgy Harris isn't a great runner, uh, they had, one of their top receivers was out, and uh, they have one receiver that can do anything, and other than that, go ahead, pick it, make plays against a defense that is dominant up on the defensive line, by the way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, it's number, it's letter C by the way, if you go ahead, if you put them in order. I do, I picked the Browns to be a playoff team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think they're going to be. And not because Nick Chubb isn't there, because I'm a big Jerome Four guy. I love him. I love him coming out. He's one of my favorite running backs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, I don't think, I don't think it's because Nick Chubb. I think it's because Deshaun Watson. He looks awful. He looks lost. He looks jumpy. He looks like he can't move at times. I don't know what's wrong with him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I thought he would take a step forward. I never thought he was elite, ever. And everybody in Houston tried to say, oh, he's elite. He's, no, he was never elite, but he was a pretty good quarterback for a couple of years there. Now he's not even close to that. And that worries me because I thought he would get somewhat closer to that, hadn't come close, hasn't even made a move in that direction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Awful stuff aside. I think you're in the wrong direction on that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why is he rusty? He played last year, he had an entire offseason. He's just not that good. Would you take that? The Baker Mayfield, the Baker Mayfield you're playing right now is playing better than Sean Watson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what that pregame ritual he's doing, but he might need to stop it. You know, what was he, in some zen mode or something? What the hell was that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You might want to stick his nose into the playbook and watch more tapes so he can actually get rid of the football once in a while.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Love Jerome Ford, man. He loved Jerome. Here's the thing about Jerome Ford, people don't realize, he started in Alabama, then he transferred to Cincinnati, and in two years at Cincinnati, he averaged over 6.3 per carry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 6.6 I think the last year. What did he average the other night? 6.6! That guy's a big play runner! Let him play! You know, he's the guy, you play, go sign Kareem Hunt, he knows the offense, so you play the two of them, but let, let the young player become the focal point of the offense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, he's not better than Jerome Ford. No! And here's the other thing, you talk about go and get this guy, go get this guy. Are the Dolphins really lamenting the fact they didn't get the Alvin Cook? No!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't keep giving away assets. It's not like, it's not like Jonathan Taylor comes in there and they're all of a sudden the Super Bowl team. I mean, you can't keep giving, they gotta look to the future. You're stuck with that quarterback. There's nothing you can do. You better, you better build it up around them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Denzel? They lost, uh, Emerson and uh, and Newsome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I will say though, if there's another planet filled with people, I'd love to meet the other Pete. I mean, if he's out there, I'd like to hang out with him. He'd be a great guy to hang out with, he'd make you laugh, you'd have a lot of fun, you'd have a good old time. Where is he?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, that defense is really good now. I mean, that's why, and when you look at the team, Carr played okay for him on the road. Yeah, for him, that was terrible. I don't know what he was looking at. There were eight guys there and it was just one guy picked it off. Yeah, he played okay for him on the road because he's had problems on the road, as you guys know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, but I think that defense will carry them. I think the offensive line will get better. Uhm, so yeaah. Look, they have talent on that team and defensively they're going to win a lot of games and be in a lot of games. And that's what, it's going to be ugly, but they're going to be in a lot of games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was a big Sam Howe guy too with you. We both were. You're rewriting history there, but that's okay. No I'm not. Why do you think I picked the commanders? Because I believe in Sam Howe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, they're a top 10 team because they're 2-0. They're a top 10 team because now they have Chase Young back. He didn't play in the opener. They're a top 10 team because Sam Howell's getting better. They're a top 10 team because I do think the offensive line, which had a bad performance against Arizona, will get better. But every offensive line's had a lot of bad performances in this league.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I just think that team is loaded with talent. I really do. And I'm bullish on Sam Howell. I think he's good. And I think Eric Bienemi...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, like, the lions. How do you lay that egg?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, to me, that's a bad loss for them. I mean, that's a Seattle team that lost to the Rams at home that goes on the road.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Lions losing at home. You were rested, by the way. You had extra rest. It's just a bad look for the Lions. And Gino Smith was awful in week one, did whatever he wanted to in week two. That's not good look for the Lions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, the other thing is the Falcons, they're 2 and 0. And,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you look at them, that's a big, I mean, that's a big game for them this week. Two and oh at home. And I want to say this about Arthur Smith.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you're down two and you have a fourth down late in the game, there's no need to go for it, buddy. None. Zero. Kick your field goal and win the game. Then ask your defense to make your stops. The Packers had one timeout and a two minute warning. That's all you had to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he ran the play? Why would you risk the game? And I know he had timeouts at the time and maybe he's thinking, okay, we can stop and get the ball back. Kick your field goal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He should have called, he nearly called his team to game. And by the way, I don't know if you guys saw that when he called the play, he was panicking because he didn't like what he saw out there, but he didn't call timeout and they ran the play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is Joe Burrow healthy? If Joe Burrow is healthy, it's the Bengals. The problem is, I don't think he's healthy. Yeaah. I think that's gonna be a problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And once you hurt your calf and you come back too soon and you hurt your calf again, you're going to come back too soon, you're probably going to hurt your calf again. And the offense is entirely different because of his calf injury. They don't drive the ball down the field, he's getting the ball out quickest, second quickest in the league now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, he's, his ability to move in the pocket is limited. I, I just think that his game is different when he's hurt and he's hurt and he hurt it again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They haven't said what it is, to what extent, but he doesn't look the same. That's why I have the bangle slide, because I think he's hurt. If he misses it a long period of time, they could be in big trouble.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Plus, it bleeds over. It bleeds over to the receivers, it bleeds over to the offensive line, the defense hasn't been as good, at least they weren't that good the other day. I just think when your quarterback is hurt, it just takes over the whole team. It's a bad situation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No doubt. And, and by the way, is it, if I'm not mistaken, this is Tom Telesco's third coach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so if this doesn't work out, I mean, look, Tom's done some good stuff there, but you don't usually get two coaches as a general, you usually get two maybe as a general matter, not three. So that would be not good for the, for the front office either. I mean, when you look at this team on paper,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You got a quarterback who can sling it around. You got an all-world left tackle. You have receivers who can catch the football. You have a pass rusher in Bozo who is dominant, although he hadn't been. Uhm, you have Khalil Mack who's been a really good player. He's not the same player, but he's still good. Derwin James is supposedly an all-world safety. You have some decent corners. What the hell is wrong with him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, Sean's done a lot of things in Denver that he's taken over already, like sticking the reporters up in the, in the, uhm, up on a hill.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's true. Oh my God. I went there. I'm like, well, usually you go on a sideline, you hang out and everything. And those guys go, no, you got to stand up here in the hill. So as soon as Sean came by, he came over, we were going to do a hit with me. I go, I would have brought telescope to watch practice. I knew we were going to stand all the way the hell up on the hill.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He goes, I didn't do, he goes, I didn't do that. I go, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, I have respect for Sean McFay and the Rams, so I just don't think they're that talented. That's why they're down where they're at. They're gonna be in a lot of games, just like they were against 49ers, they're just not gonna win a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, first off, one thing about the Patriots the other night, why in the hell did he take DeMario Douglas out of the game?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who cares? The guy was going to that. Go watch that. Go put that play on the all 22. He was going to the house by putting his foot in the ground. But what happened? You missed on, you missed on De'Mario Douglas. I hit on him and you gotta try and rip on the game. Where are the game, Wilson?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, what do you want to do, what do you want to do? Take away, all you're doing by not putting him back in there is risking the kid's confidence the next time he goes back in. It's just, that's just being football arrogant. That's all that is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] McCaffrey, that's right, you wanna, if you, I just can't put, I just can't put running backs in that spot. Uhm, Kristen McCaffrey, uh, who else? Give me some other ones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, he's a good player. But you know what, in four years he'll be complaining about being tagged and then be playing somewhere else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Chris Jones. One, but one game, he only played one game, but he was, he was unbelievable the other day. It was sad what he did to that defensive line. He killed the rookie, he killed the rookie, he killed the left, the right guard. It was amazing. So yea, but T.J. Watt for sure. Uhm, Chris Jones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're on the right, you're on the right path. If they win this week at Detroit, then you gotta really start believing in them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a shame, I'll be honest with you, it's a shame that the Browns didn't win last night because Grant Delpid is playing out of his mind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know, but, nah, he didn't get over, but the corner's gotta carry him all the way through there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Matt Milano's been really good too. By the way, should we go through the rookie quarterbacks real quick? Bryce Young's struggling. He doesn't look very good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] CJ came back in that game and made some nice throws. If you had to rank him right now, you'd probably rank him. Richardson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's having a hard time adjusting to the speed of the game a little bit and, and the other thing is, is he's not reading it out. Like you saw the Bates interceptions, how do you not see him? They were, they were.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, when he makes some plays though, they're beautiful. Don't get me wrong, some of those throws he makes are beautiful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the way, before we get out of here, I gotta, you mentioned Kyle Boller, I think I've told you guys this story before, but at his pro day workout? Yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, uh, he was throwing all kinds of rockets all over the place and he put a garbage can down like 40 yards away from, from where the guys were watching him make the pro day workout. This is before they were all on TV and everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he's throwing it and throwing it and he couldn't get it in the garbage can. He's throwing it and he goes, I'll get it guys, don't leave yet. And then he goes, I'll get it, I'll get it, I'll get it. And everybody who was there started leaving and walking up the steps of the stadium and they hear,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, Brenton, finesse is fun until you get punched in the mouth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then can't really recover. I mean, that's like me being in a boxing ring with someone twice my weight where I dodge a couple of his punches, then he hits me once in the face and I'm knocked out, match is over, it's done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, they were missing people tonight and yes, they did have some, uh, bad calls go against them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, the flip side of that, as you look at the Eagles domination, the Dolphins only scored 17 points. Jalen Hurts personally gave them 10 of those. He lost the fumble that led to a field goal where the Dolphins didn't get a first down. They just went three and out and kicked a field goal. Uh, and then obviously the pick six on a pass that he probably shouldn't have thrown.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, so I mean, for all intents and purposes, it really feels like Miami's offense produced seven points here. And so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Eagles defense is good, that's for sure. Uh, but I think part of this also was that the Dolphins got bullied on, uh, the Dolphins defense. I mean, obviously the brotherly shove works on everyone, but when you're putting together a six and a half minute drive in the fourth quarter, cause your defense can't do anything, that's a concern. So I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right now, the Dolphins have enough. They're gonna beat the bad teams. They're gonna beat the Raiders. They're gonna beat the Commanders. They're gonna beat the Titans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I'm a Dolphins fan, I am not worried at all about this team getting the playoffs. They're going to get to the playoffs. Question is what's going to happen in the playoffs when they're playing teams like the Bills and like the Eagles and they are playing good teams. Wilson, that is my question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, except just real quick, J1Hertz, if that's anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's, yeah, Marcus Mariota there is the backup. Yeah. Joan, Joan hurts her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, let's go, let Breach make his point. But you still only scored 10 points, so maybe you scored 17, it's still, we're talking about a team that scored 10 points two weeks ago, that's my point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, but I mean, I've said the Ravens are the best team in AFC North right now. I picked the Ravens to win the AFC North.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, this year, and I had the Bengals and Ravens in my AFC title game in my preseason prediction. So I have been all about the Ravens all season. I think this is a good team. They finally put it all together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know, obviously there was going to be some adjustment period with Todd Monkins offense and it looks like it took exactly seven weeks for this thing to get adjusted to because Lamar Jackson was out there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, just slinging the ball, his receivers weren't dropping passes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And now that we know how scary the Ravens offense can be, if this is what they are going forward, if they consistently do this, they might put up 40 next week because they're playing the Cardinals. So if we see this for a two or three week period, then I'll be convinced that bam, Lamar Jackson has mastered this offense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But again, if you forget about the Steelers game, they only scored 19 against the Colts. So there's been some...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Games, I mean, even last week against the Titans in London, they scored 24, they kicked six field goals, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The offense has been getting better every week, and if they consistently do this, then this team is scary because they play the type of football that they can run the ball. They can, and if Lamar Jackson's thrown for 357 yards, that's equally scary. So yeah, I think the Ravens have the potential to be, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the most dynamic teams in the AFC. I'd probably put him at number two in the in the AFC right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, well, obviously I was concerned about the Dolphins. I am not concerned about the Detroit Lions for two reasons. Number one, they play in the NFC North.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, so they lose this game. They are still two and a half games up. And even if the Vikings win on Monday night against the 49ers, which doesn't seem likely, they could maybe, uh, but even if the Vikings were to win that game, the Lions still have a two game lead. So this, in that sense, doesn't hurt them. They still feel like the best team in that division.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By far. And then the other reason is that like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lamar Jackson just does this to NFC teams. It's a shock to the system. They only see him once every four years. They have no idea what they're going up against. They have no idea how to prep for it. Lamar Jackson, fun fact.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I set it on fire, I throw it in a trash can, I dump it on Wilson's front lawn and I move on with life. And that's it. And that's, that's, you couldn't stop Lamar Jackson. Great. There's no other Lamar Jackson's in the NFL. You don't have to worry about it. And if you get to 10 wins, you're probably winning this division. Uh, and you're already halfway there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You held the Miami Dolphins to 20 points. You held your team last week, the Giants, to single digits, and the New England Patriots won 29. It doesn't make any sense at all. I don't know how Mac Jones decided to have his MVP game. He pulled this one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Out of his behind, I mean, this was, this was the Mac Jones, the Patriots thought they were going to have all season and he finally shows up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, in week seven, so I'm sure Belichick is a little bit happy about this because now he doesn't have to answer questions about whether Bailey's athlete is going to start and whether Mac Jones is going to end up on the bench.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the one thing about the bills though that does concern me at least a little bit


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is that Josh Allen, his shoulder got banged up against the Giants.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's looking less accurate and he's trying to force things in there that he can't force anymore because he's not 100% healthy where, uh, you know, Josh Allen can throw a laser.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Inaccurate passes. So I would say there's a little bit of concern with Josh Allen, especially because they have to turn around and play on Thursday night this week. Not that I do think they'll beat the Buccaneers, but just you get no break. You're going to get beat up. The Buccaneers have a decent defense. And so that would be my minor concern with the Bills that you got to make sure Josh Allen's 100% healthy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wilson, I'll start going somewhere during the break so you can feel good about saying it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean a hundred percent I would have bet all my money at the time that was Anthony Richardson, except I'm the last person to ask because maybe I would have guessed Gardner Menchus since I'm his number one fan on the planet. Uh, I mean in the first half I was actually going to text you guys and be like what? First round pick for Gardner Menchus?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I think he had been, he, cause he talked to the media leading up to this game. He had said he didn't want to put the Browns in a bad spot. So he can't throw the ball.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 50 yards down field or hit the long out routes that he didn't feel comfortable playing, which again, there's a disconnect in the locker room. Then if the coaching staff, I don't know, cause they expect him to play, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Would prefer that he's out there and he's like, eh, I can't do it. That that seems like it's going to create a little bit of an issue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the problem for the Browns is that they're locked into this guy for $230 million. There's no way out. He's guaranteed. This is guaranteed money. This isn't Russell Wilson where you can get out in two years, which again, and it feels like because Russell Wilson's gotten so much flack that in the, in the shop, Watson kind of got a flyer for the end of last season with his bad six games. It was like, ah, well he's rusty. Well now we're in week seven.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's no more Russ. You were either able to play or you're not, and so far Deshaun Watson has not been able to play. Uh, luckily for the Browns, their defense has been so phenomenal. Wilson, you mentioned Miles Garrett. He had two forced fumbles, two strip sacks in the first half, blocked the field goal, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they also forced four turnovers by Gardner-Menshu, which was really the difference in the game. Uh, and so, I mean, you gotta give the Browns defense a ton of credit, cause they- Sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two weeks in two ways, like, well, the Browns got lucky and this team should be two and four.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, exactly. And so real quick though, uh, I'm glad some of the comments just mentioned it. I gotta shout out Dustin Hopkins.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who not only hit three field goals of 50 yards or more in this game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No kicker had ever, Justin Tucker didn't do that. Jim Breach didn't do it. No kicker ever had hit a field goal of 50 yards or more in five straight games. So, Dustin Hopkins, maybe he can be their quarterback. I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, real quick on Herbert. It's been, I mean, we talked a little bit last week about is he anti-clutch? Is it fair to say that, uh, after that game, after what he did in week one against the Dolphins. And now you look at this game where he went, I think seven to 16 for a hundred yards with two interceptions in the second half when your team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Needed you the most, uh, those aren't numbers that you can afford to have, especially when you're in a shootout with the Chiefs and the Chargers were absolutely in this game if they could have done literally anything, uh, in the second half. And one of Herbert's interceptions came when the Chargers had driven down inside the Chiefs 10 yard line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On their first possession of the second half. So they had a chance to tie the game, but Herbert threw an interception so it didn't happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, but the Chiefs defense played a part in that because they have been surprisingly good. It's like you get Chris Jones back in there and now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the Chiefs, the status of the Chiefs are the only team in the NFL that hasn't given up at least 21 points in a single game this year. They go 21 to the Lions. Or they haven't given up over 21 points in a single game this year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, the one thing I will say is that I remember last year, maybe it was the Super Bowl year for the Bengals where it seemed like we had a weekly debate about whether Zach Taylor was a good coach or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we could never figure it out. And I think Matt LaFleur is going to be the new coach we debated about because Packers were so eager to kick Aaron Rodgers out the door.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the thought was that, hey, well, obviously they have somebody better in the bullpen. They want to get them out there and they're ready to move on with their future franchise quarterback. And that just has not been the case.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jordan love has not been great. It hasn't been horrible, but he's been really bad in the first half of games. And so the Packers have always been trailing. And then the other part of this is he's running Matt with fours offense. So you've got to pin some of it on the head coach. And we're talking about a team that was coming off the box.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the history of the stat, a team that gave up 70 points in week 3, a team that gave up 35 points to the commanders in week 2, which is like giving up 70 to a normal team, a very, very bad


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Defense and the Packers just could not do anything. And so I think you have to be concerned if you're a Packers fan. I think you have to be concerned if you're on that coaching staff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the one thing I will say is, you can't bench Jordan Love, that's not an option. This is, you gotta let him, this is the guy you signed up with, you gotta let him finish this season.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well right, but they gave them that extension that they can get out of after, uh, I mean, probably after this season. I think the dead cap next year is like 12 million, something around there. So it's not like they're locked to him and he's only under contract through 2024, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will say about my schoolmate Sean McVeigh is that he needs to hire someone. Sean, if you want to call me, it's fine to help him use his timeouts because the timeout usage is not just this week. It is literally all the time. If sometimes you can bet on the sports books, what coach is going to use a timeout first?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Always bet McBank. It is free money. The guy just loves using timeouts. And so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, what actually happened here is two plays before that fourth and one, so the Steelers had, you know, the first down on that final possession where


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They wore, they ran down the clock, uh, so the, uh, Rams used their sec, they used their first time out in the third quarter. They used their second time out on a first and 10 where the Steelers got two yards. They used their third time out on a second and eight where the Steelers got zero yards and then

[Assistant] Two plays later is when the Kenny Pickett thing happens. So literally they use that final timeout two plays later. You can do that in the first half. You have to have a timeout at the two minute warning so this doesn't happen to you. Just keep one because it's just as good after the two minute warning. Your goal is to try and save 40 seconds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and so you save the 40, whether it's on the front side or the back side. Uh, but really it's the third quarter timeout that, that, that, that bit them in the butt. And the other thing I will say is that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The rams dug their own grave here. You had one of the top five kickers in the NFL and that day you let him walk in free agency.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then you went out and signed the guy who had a meltdown in the playoffs last year, Brett Maher. And all Brett Maher did was miss two field goals in this game. He has now missed multiple field goals in three games this year. He is the only kicker in the NFL who has missed multiple field goals in three different games. And that's just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, and he missed an extra point. So that's, that's what you get for bringing in a guy who, look, kick or snap. It happens, you miss a few, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You just mentally break and it's tough to get it back. It's the Chuck Knoblock thing with the throws. Steve Sanders, if you're old.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, Steve Sack is just, he doesn't completely have it back mentally. Maybe he'll get it, maybe he won't, but the Rams are riding this wagon, this bumpy wagon that's headed for a cliff and they're like, Oh, we don't care. We'll hope it works. So call time is gone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Maher's definitely been an issue and I'll be interested to see if they keep him, uh, through this week. If he's our kicker on week eight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I mean, there's a few ways to fix it. I don't know if the commanders can do any of it. One, uh, you get your ground game going, you say, hey, Brian Robinson, we need you to carry the ball, uh, 47 times. Antonio Gibson, you need to carry it 42 times. We can't throw passes because our quarterback's getting killed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you'd start adding a lot of screens into your game, but then defenses will catch onto that, so you can't do that all the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the other thing is like, Sam Howe has to be better. Not every one of these sacks was on, is on the offensive line. I saw most of this game today. I would say of the six sacks, two were his fault.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's still getting sacked four times, which is not good, but he's just not, I would say the Eric Vienneme is probably frustrated with Sam Howell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just because he just ignores some of his first read sometimes and then the pressure's there and he's sacked and that's it. Or he tries to run around, do something and he's sacked and that's it. So not all of these on the offensive line, but it doesn't matter. It's a combination that has led to him being the second most quarterback in NFL history through seven weeks. And if they don't fix it, they're not going to win many more games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know what though, if you're the Bears, you don't need to tank just yet. You're an NFC. You're only a game and a half out of a playoff spot. Just ride the train till the end of November. Uh, I mean, the Panthers are 0-6 and you're two games better than them now. So it's not even, you're doing a good job of tanking if you want to tank.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, you guys want a fun fact real quick? So, we know that Tyson Bajon went to Sheppard. I have been to a college football game that Sheppard played in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My brother, my, I was like, I recognize that school. And, uh, my brother went to West Virginia Wesleyan, which is near shepherd and they play each other in football.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, he tried his best to lose his job today with three turnovers. He lost three fumbles, two in the red zone, three in the red zone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two, two at the one yard line, uh, but you know what he did? He drove the Falcons down and he got a game winning field goal from Youngway Cue. He set them up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and that's what you need. You save your job by winning that game. And now despite your play, your team is still in first place in the NFC South heading into week eight. And that's about all you can ask for if you're the Falcon. So I think Ritter might've saved his job with that game winning drive and good for him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Again, and I think the thing with the lions, maybe I talked about this last night a little bit on Sunday night show, but, um.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the land, you know, like as we pointed out last night, maybe we should not, maybe, maybe when I mentioned multiple times that the lions and the lions and, um, dolphins were a super matchup, I could envision maybe, maybe, maybe fade those two teams immediately.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, like we get a little hyped up, like I had the bills, but you know, bills covered eight and a half and the Patriots took care of business at home. I mean, that just tends to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Happened, you see, home teams can perform well. The Bills are a huge favorite, uh, this week as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because it was like, it was the, the Bucks ultimately won 27 to 33 in overtime. Um, but I believe that the Bucks were up 24 to three at halftime.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like the bills were completely just deflated for lack of, for no pun intended, uh, after that Patriots loss and then


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very different Bucks team. You still have a top ball's defense. I think Tampa can keep up with Buffalo a little bit because this Buffalo defense has to be worried, like big time worried. Um, and you know, I think that, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That'd be sad. I mean seven and a half man. Gosh, I don't know. I don't know. Uh, by the way, they would also win their last four games of that season and finish 11 and six. But anyway, um, seven and a half feels a bit steep.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what I'm saying, like yeaah, they dominated the next three weeks. Man, I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Timetime bills game, the bills crowd should be really loud. I don't know. I w I think I'm going to lean towards the bills. I wouldn't, I wouldn't bet this right now. It's not going to shoot out to like Hannah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Open it, look at it with six, open it six and a half hadn't really moved. I mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Might, might do the over six and a half sacks on Sam Howell here, uh, with that Eagles defensive line and this Washington offensive line, man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I think so too. I don't know about you, Katie, but I think...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, it's hard to take the commanders even at home, catching the six and a half, knowing what that defense will do to Sam Howell in the Washington office. Like I don't, I don't see how Washington gets any.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any sort of offense going against this Philly defense. I mean, you can't, you're not going to run the ball. St. Alice will be running for his life. They've got good guys covering on the back end. Um, and you're like, like their coverage has been fine. And it's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The only issue is like, I can see the Eagles being content to win like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Commanders have four drives of 64 plus yards for touchdowns against the Eagles in that last matchup and took it to overtime. So it's like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Typically speaking, when you get a second divisional matchup and you're talking about one in three or four, like three or four weeks, you know, the second matchup in three or four weeks, unders tend to be a pretty good look. So I think I would go ahead and jump on that under 44 if I was going to do anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jack's getting, yeah, Jack's getting a full 10 mini by with it playing last Thursday. And then, um, you know, you're, you're back to back road games, but you are, you know, with that 10 day break, it's, it's pretty nice Jaguars five and two started to play. Well, I mean, Steelers are definitely a threat in the AFC, even if they're like minus 25 points, minus 24 point differential screams total fluke. Um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sports9.com slash join. You get your first month for a dollar. I don't want to give all these away, but I will tell you that his early line has the.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Eagles should be minus nine. His power ratings have the Eagles minus nine against the commander, so he would lay the six and a half there. And then actually is the Steelers minus one in this game. She's the wrong team is favorite according to RJ's projections, which I thought was interesting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think most people will take the Jaguars. I wouldn't be totally shocked if the Steelers found a way to win this game in like, uh, like we're like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Honestly, three of their five wins. How the hell are they doing this? We keep getting these weird like Matt Canada shots where he's in the, he's like, he's just like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Saints at the Colts, Colts minus one and a half. Another really low total, even though this one is indoors. 43 and a half. We actually saw the Saints go over the total, uh, on Thursday against the Jaguars. Surprising because they've been an under team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All year long, of course, the Colts were about a 77 point barrage against the Browns on Sunday. Um, clearly no Anthony Richardson here. Uh, Derek Carr catching the one and a half.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, my immediate thought would be look at this under, because I feel like even though the, the Colts, the Colts will run a little more up tempo stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Three, the Texans, like, look, the Texans are a nice surprise. I was, I love the Texans before the season. Uh, CJ Stroud's been way better than I think anyone anticipated. And Bryce Young has been way worse than anyone anticipated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a coaching experience on this coaching staff, like Jim Caldwell's a offensive, um, you know, analyst on this staff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they switched play callers going into the buy. Frank Reik announced that Thomas Brown was going to take over play calling. It's his first time, I believe, as an actual play caller. Um, it could be, I think that's right in it in times. Uh, anyway, I'll double check that. But, um, like there's some real incentive here, uh, for,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have a really good week off. It's his first time in the NFL as an offensive play caller. He's been an offensive coordinator before. Sorry.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a, there's a big incentive for the Panthers here to have a decent showing at home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have Bryce Young versus CJ Stroud, that narrative. You have, we haven't won a freaking football game, that narrative. You have, we're giving the Bears our first round pick, that narrative. You have Frank Wright talking about David Tepper not being happy all the time, that narrative.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just work against what's a tough defense in Demica Ryan's, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Welcome to the fall in Carolina. Rams at the Cowboys Cowboys minus six and a half. A total of 45 and a half. This game actually opened at five and a half. The Rams coming off just a


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, again, the sealers are just smoking mirrors. I don't know how the hell they won that game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Really, the Rams should, I mean, the Rams should have won that game and the, and I mean, the Steelers should be like two and four, honestly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the Rams should be four and three and feel like they're right there in the mix.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like the Rams catching the six and a half here. I think that's, that's too many points for, um, you know, uh, a Rams team that can score.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 2 30 on Monday, right? And they play on Monday night against the Vikings on the road. And if the Niners go into Minnesota and stop.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, uh, the Vikings, this line is going to bump up closer to a touchdown. Now, Joe burrow got his bye. He was 100% healthy. Uh, but this Niners team, I remember like when we last, like everyone sort of remembers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And snuff out Kirk, primetime Kirk Cousins and the defense looks great and they run the ball great and Chris Rock already is Jim.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So anyway, you get the point. You get the point. I like the Niners as a anticipatory throw here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll say too because I think I'm supposed to predict this that I think sorry that I think that the Niners get to Niners minus eight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Falcons. My Atlanta Falcons are, uh, four and three in the first place in the UFC South. And I thought I saw a great, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How many weeks in a row can the Packers, Saints, and Falcons spreads close one to two points? It was like every single week those teams are in that range. Sure enough, this week Packers, we'll get to them in a minute, uh, Titans, Titans, the Titans sort of the same way too. It's like Falcons minus one at the Titans, uh, Colts minus one and a half against the Saints at home. We talked about that one already. I think this is a good case too, where


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we were sort of, um, I don't know, texture over like Nick Costas, Pete Presko, Jamie Eisenberg. And we were just texting about like betting on the NFL earlier today. And it's like, look, cause Ryan, whoa, I know where to do this. Ryan Wilson currently.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 0 and 12 against the spread this week on our official CBS Sports NFL Experts page. 0 and 12. I've never seen a clean reverse sweep. If Vikings don't cover tonight, then bye bye Ryan. 0 and 13 for the week. That is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That we do and say we pick every game every week against the spread and there's a lively it's a great live leaderboard highly recommend people use it and like you could be sitting at the top of the leaderboard at 3 45.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ryan, Ryan had the saints, the bucks, the bills, the Browns, the lions, the Raiders, the commanders, the Cardinals, the Rams, the Packers, the chargers, the dolphins. And now he has San Francisco minus six and a half tonight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, going 0-12, like, it's, it's what, I mean, look, the, the second best, the, the best record, no, no, this is a sharp week, the, no one is better, Dave Richards is the best out there at 6-6.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, sorry. I meant, I meant to say, yeah, you're correct. It's, um, yeah, these, these teams don't score at all. I mean, Atlanta.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah, Patriots, Patriots, Patriots stole their game against the Bills.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two is undefeated against Belichick, I think, but hadn't like really been all that great against him. I think they get the offense going. I mentioned RJ's power rankings article, uh, just to give this Dolphins minus 13 is his, it's his line that he projects. So you can see that juice starting to lean towards the.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe get into 10 and a half. I think this one could move too. This would be another anticipation game. Um, and then the over, I think probably a pretty good look as well. The Patriots will have to try to keep up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tonight they are at the Packers who we mentioned, uh, always have these tiny spreads Packers minus one and a half a total of 43 and a half in this one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's awful, but like the Vikings are a cure for those ills. I'll tell you that much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think anybody trusts the Packers and I'm not sure anybody trusts the Vikings, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, yeah, I don't want a whole lot to do with this game, honestly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Trying to, you know, minimize the number of throws that PJ Walker had to make, ended up having to throw it 32 times because, you know, there's so many plays in this game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] San Francisco lights it up and puts 40 on the board against Minnesota's offense tonight. Then this line could certainly shift. I could certainly see the total bump up as well. Um, these teams have actually not been extremely


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Over the Niners are three, two and one to the over bingles two and four to the over. Um, that has been a much better team against the spread. I, I mean,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that they are not going to play Kyle Murray, personally.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cardinals team total 16 and a half. So the under plus is even money. Maybe wait and see if that goes, if it goes to 17, grab that. So I think I'd wait on that. It's, it's over his juice a little bit. Um, you'd rather have the 17 than the 16 and a half for sure. I don't think we see Calvary for a while there. Chiefs minus seven and a half at the Broncos. The Broncos coming off a win in which Sean Payton, when he got sushi, even though he hates sushi, apparently. And, um, he told everybody that, yeah, it was interesting. Um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Disaster against the spread last year. 5 and 2 against the spread so far this season. Broncos 1, 5 and 1.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Russell Wilson looked alright against Packers. Got the Brinton VP last night, but I don't know that, I mean, this team hasn't allowed anyone to score.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It comes back to earth, uh, but I can see the bears putting up some points. I don't see them slowing down the chargers. I also have a hard time laying that many points with the chargers because the chargers, the chargers just play one score games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every time out, by the way, LA needs this one bad. They are two and four. They are slipping like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is who they're behind in the standings according to the NFL official, official NFL standings.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Houston Texans, the New York Jets, the Cincinnati Bengals, the Indianapolis Colts, the Las Vegas Raiders, and the Tennessee Titans. Here's who they're ahead of. The New England Patriots and the Denver Broncos. Like, what are you doing? Brains daily?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's fired mid-season, you lose this game. You lose it at home as an eight-half point favorite. By the way, there's probably a bunch of Bears fans there. So uhm, I probably like the over, I probably like the over in this spot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All right, boys. This is the pick six podcast and this is Sunday night super friend. That's Will Brenton. That's Johnny Breach. I'm Ryan Wilson. And this is the Sunday night super friends week five NFL recap, 2023 edition. All right. So here's the plan. If you don't know by now, we're going to hit our top 10 takeaways from week five.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The biggest storylines, the best players, the top plays, and some disappointing results if you're a Cowboys fan. But first!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wank, wank. Remember to give us a thumbs up if you're watching on the old YouTube, NFL and CBS. And of course subscribe wherever you get your podcasts so you never miss a show. All right, let's do it boys. First up, going to Breach's old neck of the woods, Santa Clara, California, where the Cowboys have yet to get off the bus. What's that Breach? Breachbot 3000. No, of course that was you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the 49ers and future Hall of Famer Brock Purdy looked to be unbeatable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which is crazy to say, because we're talking about Brock Purdy, no longer Mr. Irrelevant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, we talk about the winners here. What are we to make a Dak Prescott who has a history of not showing up in the big moments? Is that fair here or does, uh, some of the, uh, some of the blame, I should say, go to the defense and Dane Quinn?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Breach, let me, let me put you this way. Dak threw 15 interceptions last year. Only played 12 games.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't look great tonight. And you could say the defense has been quote unquote dominant, but they were defensive men's against the Giants, the Jets, and the Patriots. So, and of course the Cardinals team they couldn't beat. Where are you on Dak and maybe the Cowboys overall?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you acted like that was a crazy day. I think that, uhm, I mean, you know, Dalton's not a bad comp for being in terms of just not showing up in the biggest moment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, you're, feel free to look it up. I mean, that's why I fell. That's, that's not, that's not a mystery. Like, we knew that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I think he had a DUI. I think he had something come up, uh, right before, right around the, during the draft process that spring.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But uhm, so yeaah, I mean, I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's easy to make, you know, point the finger at Dak and obviously Mike McCarthy because I like to certainly call it Mike McCarthy time and time again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But is this also a case where this is just week one of the Bills getting outclassed by the Jets? Or is this a case where we have to be concerned? Again, they play in the NFC, so it's not like they're going to be a long line of teams, although Brenton, as you mentioned, the 49ers are there, the Detroit Lions are there, so there's competition, but I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What do you take away from this once you go back to the locker room and have to figure out how to put the pieces back together?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So like do that now and then you can take off Thanksgiving and spend it with your family and get on with your, your end of life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I think you were closer the first time. I never was on Jimmy G. I think Tom Brady's. The thing I was thinking about and to come back to your points breach, Brock Purdy probably looks more like Dak Prescott if he's playing for Mike McCarthy. I think this is just a perfect marriage of coach and guy who's locked in and super smart and really good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Bree sort of touched on it. It feels like Mike McCarthy's not putting Dak in position to have success. And I don't want to blame this all on Mike McCarthy. Dak did throw the three interceptions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I don't know, man. I, I just, I never got the Mike McCarthy hire. I know he took the gear off and spent a lot of time at, you know, PFF looking at analytics and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Leopard doesn't change his spots, is all I'm saying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what, there's no team on planet earth that's currently going to go in to Levi's stadium, if they still call that, go to Santa Clara and beat this 49ers team the way they're currently constituted. And Collinsworth talked about it a bunch and he said basically everyone plays the same position on offense, like all five eligible can do anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's the problem, like when you can't cover anyone, like how you check out of Harvard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't have any answers and dudes are falling left and right, getting hurt on the, on the defensive side of the ball. And I don't, if they were fully healthy, I still think this game is probably three touchdowns. Like, I don't know how you solve this puzzle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd imagine they'd lose, but show me the team that's playing better than they are right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sausage and mash, Cornish pasties, and of course, some Falcons and Buffalo! See how I did that? Alright, Breach!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hate to bring this up, but one of Brenton's bowl predictions before the season was that the Jags would finish as the number one seed in the AFC.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After five games, how do we feel about this team after they beat the breaks off of a Bills team who looked like they'd literally just got off the plane?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is how the Matthew Fairburn in the Athletics started his story after the whooping they took. During the week, Sean McDermott deferred to a sports science department when asked about the Bills travel plans. And then Sean went on to say, we need to evaluate everything because I didn't feel like our energy was good enough early in the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Matt Milano left with a knee injury. Daquan Jones, one second here. Daquan Jones left with a pec injury and Sean McDermott stood after the game. But Daquan's injury did not look good. So that's certainly, Matt Milano is one of their best players. So that's certainly a problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Kyrie Elam last year's first round picked the cornerback out of Florida. They pulled him late in the game and that's, that's not a good look. The guy, the guy that replaced him was just called it from the practice squad and Sean McDermott said, we just want to get some, some other bodies in there. That's not what you want to hear when you are already down Trey White.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh man, the Giants and Daniel Jones has a neck injury. Speaking of the Bengals. You're welcome. Rach, we'll let you gloat here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought that the Cardinals had a chance to win this game. Josh Jobs had not thrown an interception all year. He was completing 70% of his passes. We knew that Joe Burrow was not himself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But he suddenly looked to be himself once he got to, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To Arizona there. And he said after the game at the touchdown, the first touchdown, he threw that laser in the back of the end zone. Probably did Jamar chase because I think he threw 18 touchdowns to Jamar. He said that made him feel like he was pretty close to back. He had a longer scramble later in the game. He looked pretty...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pretty athletic there as well. Are the Bengals still alive? Because I was the one last week talking about, look man, shut it down, the season's over. And you said, all you gotta do is get to the bye. So one down, one to go, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but I think the takeaway is that Joe Burrow is back, number one, and that's the whole point of the conversation. They could easily lose to the Seahawks. The Seahawks are not a bad football team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to clubstatus.com, which I found on the old internets here, Breach, how do you feel about at 2 and 3, the Bengals playoff chances at 24%?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. Alright, so uhm, I think that's a big win. I mean, it's hard not to be a big win, that seems. Especially, and correct me if I'm wrong, Breach, when's the last time they scored a touchdown on the road?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that was something else. By the way, you know, it's, it's, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what's the word I'm looking for. It's a step in the right direction when NFL retweets the fact that Jamar broke the record and then also retweets the audio and video of him saying, I'm always effing open. I was like, all right, that's the message received. Joe Burrow finally got that message because he could actually throw the ball overhand and step into it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Burrow's healthy, uh, let's see what they do, but I'll go with the Ravens, but the Ravens can't quit, cannot stop shooting themselves in the foot. And let's go there because Brentz and this team has found ways to lose an overtime to the Colts at home and then found ways to lose on the road to the Steelers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But what are we to make of the Ravens? We just talked about the Bills sort of being hot and cold. We talked about the Cowboys being underwater and freezing in this game in Santa Clara. The Ravens on paper with Joe Burrows injury are the best team in the division. They play like they're way, you know, deep down inside, they want to be the Steelers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Great, he's an NFL quarterback. He's had exactly one, he's thrown for two touchdowns in one game exactly once in his career.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can you pick his problem too? I've gone back and watched all his throws and he, he, he got hurt last week on a throw. If he just thrown the ball, he wouldn't have gotten hit. But I mean, it's not good. The offense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Ron Stanley the left tackle got whooped to your point breached by Alex Highsmith on that strip sack and that didn't help.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And yeah, I mean, there's a whole bunch of things and it's crazy because Steelers have now won six of the last seven of these matchups somehow against the Ravens. This is only the fourth time in nine games that Lamar has played because of injury. And I thought there was no way on planet earth that the Steelers going to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And here we are, just watching some truly ugly football. Luckily I didn't see every play. I'll go back and watch it at some point when I have, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ravens, Browns, Steelers, and probably Bengals? Maybe Bengals? No, this can't be last.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We know that the three and two, they're not very good. Harry, I missed your messenger. What'd you say?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a great question. He's uh, he's 70. This is an absolute train wreck. And the reality is this, before and after Tom Brady was with Bill Belichick, Bill Belichick was not the Hall of Fame coach he is now. And that's just the truth. And you can spin it any way you want, but


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's where we're at. Mack Jones has, to your point, been a disaster. And you can't blame Matt Patricia, because Matt Patricia's, I don't know what he's doing, spending the money he made last year trying to get, um, Mack Jones killed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, you talk about that Cowboys game where, you know, Matt got pulled. Matt got pulled again this game. Bill insists he's gonna be the starter next week. And the offensive line sucks. There's injuries along the offensive line.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, for reasons that defy comprehension, didn't draft any tackles, which is what they sorely needed. They kept drafting the interior outfits of linemen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They started those rookies in week one against the Eagles and got, they got demolished against Jalen Carter. No crime in that, but at some point you have to get better. Mack is not mobile.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The wide receivers aren't getting open. DiMario Douglas and Juju both got concussed in this game. And the list goes on and on and on. So you can make all the excuses you want. This team sucks. And you make a list of teams that you just can't figure out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It feels like we're seeing some of the worst football that I can recall seeing in such a concentrated period of time. Patriots, the Broncos, the Giants, the Bears, even though they, they smoke the commanders, which is a huge win for them. But those teams routinely are the ones you talk about the most. And.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here's the thing, Breach, here's the great, here's the great news. This is going to be one of the deepest quarterback classes in recent memory. So all four of these teams could be drafted quarterbacks, but I think that the question is the race for number one is on, although it could be very well the case that the Panthers never win a football game. But I think there could be a lot of changes. Now the Panthers don't win, the Bears get the pick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think they would hire a 71 year old coach. Especially a defensive coach and that's the issue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think if the available candidates were names like Mike Tomlin, because Steelers fans always want to fire him, Mike Vrabel because Titans fans, I would imagine Breach are frustrated with him from time to time, and Bill Belichick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll, I'll say it in a second. If Tomlin, Vrabel and Belichick are on the market, I think Belichick would be the last one to get hired.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's the most conservative coach that we don't talk about. Look, he, every decision he makes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They kicked the field goal on fourth and three, they missed. Breach made comment of that. They had fourth and three in the second half. They were down 21 points on, on, on the Saints 40. They punted. Are you still listening?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Purple's a little younger than that, I believe. Uhm, Bell is like 70-71.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that would be an interesting one. That actually I could get behind and at Browns fans I know would probably get behind it as well. Yeah, so he's a little younger than Tomlin. Alright. Onward and outward boys.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh man, so Harry is not a fan of the Eagles as I read the rundown here. The Eagles offense isn't as good as it should be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although they look good at times. We saw Jalen get into it, throwing the ball down the field to A.J. Brown. Uh, the running game is what the running game is. The defense is what the defense is. And that's what Harry notes, uh, in the second half of the run down there. It doesn't matter because this defense is pretty freaking amazing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Rich, how do you feel about this team? Because they have not hit on all cylinders and the teams that we've talked about previously that have had some L's on the schedule haven't been hitting on all cylinders and have gotten embarrassed at one point or another. I mean, this isn't the Cowboys. This isn't the Bills. This team is 5-0 and back to back years for the first time in team history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I'm looking at last year's stats compared to this year's stats and 4.6 yards per rush through five weeks this year, same as last year.
