single member of the of the

30
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,240
We might, we might, we might
have to start thinking about

31
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,120
doing some sort of dating game.
Yeah.

32
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,000
Well, it wasn't that bad.
I don't know.

33
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,400
I mean I I I let.
Let me let me bring the audience

34
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,480
up to speed, OK?
What these guys are talking

35
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,680
about is after the show was
done, most people just go to

36
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,360
bed, you know, because it's, you
know, 12:30 in the morning and

37
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,560
you know, you know, the right
thing to do is go to bed.

38
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,120
Well, of course I've got to do
some things for the show, just a

39
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,639
few things for the show.
I, I get that done.

40
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:14,200
Well in the middle of getting it
done I I go to I hear the door

41
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,480
to my bedroom which is right
next to the my studio.

42
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,120
I know that's the problem.
I heard it slam.

43
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,440
Oh.
I'm like that's odd cause the

44
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,800
cats can't close the door that
hard right?

45
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,640
Right.
Right, not the cat that it must

46
00:02:29,640 --> 00:02:31,160
be so.
So I.

47
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,800
I, I, I, I was going to close
the other door, but I opened up

48
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,280
the other door because I shut
the light off in the studio and

49
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:45,280
all I hear my wife is all I hear
my wife say is who the hell were

50
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:50,840
you talking to?
That's for you fans.

51
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,720
I was talking to my fans.
I said we did a post show.

52
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,560
She was like, you never closed a
damn door.

53
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,600
And my wife never swears.
And she's like in the bed under

54
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,800
the covers yelling at me, you
know, and I said, no, I shut the

55
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,360
door.
No, you didn't.

56
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:13,160
I'm like, oh boy, I did not.
Not only does my wife not yell,

57
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,560
she doesn't, she doesn't she
when she's in bed, she's asleep,

58
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:17,480
right?
And.

59
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,240
She was so upset I literally
woke her up out of a dead sleep.

60
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,960
Well, I'm not surprised if you
go back and watch last night's

61
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,080
show, Steve was.
Yes, you want to worry about the

62
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,160
microphone I.
Did I did and.

63
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,280
You're worried about my damn
microphone?

64
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,520
Yeah, I got a little animated,
but, you know, that's what

65
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,480
happens when the Steelers win
the way they want, you know,

66
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,160
you're going to get animated.
So.

67
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,160
So then, you know, she didn't
use the word divorce, but you

68
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,400
know, it felt like a divorce was
going to happen this morning.

69
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,160
But.
All is well in the the Flitch

70
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,840
household.
There'll be no divorce.

71
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,800
We kissed and made-up, but I
didn't get banned from watching

72
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,000
the playoff game in my own
house, so if you would like to.

73
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,840
Watch the game with the hockey
Jesus.

74
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,840
I need a big television
somewhere and all All I need are

75
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,000
a couple iron cities.
Iron city lights maybe.

76
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:08,800
Maybe I'll.
Just go.

77
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,400
Maybe I'll go up the Creighton
and and watch the game with

78
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,320
Double M Oh.
My God, we, you know, we got, we

79
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,959
got, we got you covered.
We got we got you covered.

80
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:19,959
I need some coverage because
that's what happened to me last

81
00:04:19,959 --> 00:04:23,120
night, but no, that I don't we
don't need to start looking at

82
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,120
Tinder.
I'm no, I'm the Tinder.

83
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,760
Profile.
Yeah, I was thinking about a,

84
00:04:28,280 --> 00:04:30,640
you know, a reality show.
The Yins are Bachelor.

85
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,440
Oh God, that would.
That would be the good, the bad

86
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,400
and the ugly.
Yeah, the yins are bachelor,

87
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,560
right?
Or or bat bat bachelor yins,

88
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,240
something like that.
So no, I'm good.

89
00:04:43,280 --> 00:04:44,520
I'm good.
Thank you for.

90
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,160
Worrying about it, you also have
a consultant in your in your mix

91
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:53,760
who's extremely experienced in
the ways of separation and.

92
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,040
You have I Do you have a good
legal?

93
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,680
Yeah, good legal.
Yeah.

94
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,640
And, and, and I counselled you
last night that it's got to

95
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,640
escalate a little further than
that.

96
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,680
Yeah, there were.
There was no hot coffee mugs

97
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:06,200
being.
Thrown.

98
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,400
Yeah, yeah, I know when I never
said that I never.

99
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,560
I deny I ever said that by.
The way where?

100
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,640
Where has the counsellor?
Actually, he disappeared.

101
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,520
I talked to the counselor today.
Yeah.

102
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,480
And you know what he did?
He was at the game last night,

103
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:21,840
of course.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

104
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:23,840
He he said.
And he's been a lot.

105
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,520
He's been a.
Lot of games, a lot of games.

106
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,760
He said other than the the two
Super Bowls that he went to,

107
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:33,000
actually went to the three Super
Bowls, this was by far and away

108
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,400
the most amazing game he's ever
been.

109
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,920
That's very interesting.
Was he walking out before the

110
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:44,480
field goal was missed?
So no, but but but I told him,

111
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,360
you know, that I shut it off and
I didn't watch it, he said.

112
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,320
Well, after that happened, he
said everybody in the stadium

113
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,280
was standing up.
OK, first of all, everybody not

114
00:05:54,280 --> 00:05:57,280
just the the lower bowl, which
we've already heard about, he

115
00:05:57,280 --> 00:06:00,680
said everybody in the upper bowl
was standing up the whole the

116
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,040
whole fourth quarter.
And he said he had to sit down.

117
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:09,920
He said he sat down and he just
heard the loudest roar he ever

118
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,920
heard in in any game he's ever
been to.

119
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,280
Yeah.
And and he just, he was like, he

120
00:06:16,280 --> 00:06:18,600
missed the kick.
I can't believe he missed the

121
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,040
kick, you know?
So he sat down, he and didn't

122
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,200
watch it, and you also turned it
off and didn't watch it.

123
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:29,560
And the Grand Sabini and I, we
had faith.

124
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,720
That's the reason.
That's the reason they want

125
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,640
because if I was watching it
would have went right through

126
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,160
the middle.
Do you think it's really that

127
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,160
bad do?
You know it was I.

128
00:06:38,280 --> 00:06:40,960
People, people have those
superstitions, of course, and

129
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,360
and honestly, I do follow those
a little bit because I did not

130
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,880
watch that fourth down play
either where where they got the

131
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,400
touchdown.
I was like, I I just can't

132
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:49,920
watch.
I can't watch.

133
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,040
I don't know what's going to
happen.

134
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,760
And the and the fourth down play
where they did the tush push and

135
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,760
they got on on the 4th down too.
I didn't watch.

136
00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,320
I just couldn't do it but.
The funny thing for me is just

137
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,520
couldn't do it.
What I've found is when things

138
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:07,520
happen in games that are just
completely ridiculous, I end up

139
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,080
laughing.
Yeah, I end up laughing.

140
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,560
Like when when the guy missed
the kick, I'm like, he missed

141
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:19,720
it.
I'm like doing stuff like that,

142
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,000
you know?
Yeah, that's what I am doing.

143
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,240
Well, so get.
Back to the counselor.

144
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,120
The counselor was alive and
well.

145
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,400
He actually said I should be
going to the playoff game with

146
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,200
him.
And I said Nah, you know,

147
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:33,280
because I already turned it
down.

148
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,760
See, he was going to he was
going to buy me a ticket because

149
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,600
I bought him some some H some
hockey tickets.

150
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,720
Some H.
Well, HJ tickets is what I was.

151
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,360
I was going.
To say yeah.

152
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,720
HAH.
J It's getting a little serious.

153
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,040
I think the Penguins are mine.
Why you turning down playoff

154
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,080
tickets?
I I just, you know what?

155
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,120
I, I don't know why I just, I
just every time I go to a

156
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,440
playoff game, like the last one
I went to, they got slaughtered.

157
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:00,880
Oh yeah.
And I just.

158
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,120
I can't handle that like.
It is really rough, isn't it?

159
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,880
It's it's I mean, it ruined my
whole week like the the game

160
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,120
yesterday.
I'm not kidding.

161
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:13,760
I had, I had, I had, I was.
So I was sick during physically

162
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:15,880
sick during the game and that
hasn't happened to me.

163
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,160
In.
Decades because normally the

164
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,520
Steelers are not that important
in my life, but something give.

165
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,640
Me a break something.
You just hear him say that

166
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,120
normally the Steelers aren't
that important.

167
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:28,520
I know what he's getting at,
yeah.

168
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,680
The older you get, you put
things in the.

169
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:32,480
Panda little respect.
Come on.

170
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,480
But this show isn't about
perspective.

171
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,600
Well, this show is about the
Steelers.

172
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:37,919
Clearly.
Not, yeah.

173
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:42,960
And, and I think it's obvious
from the fact that you placed

174
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:48,080
your studio right next to your
your, your marital bedroom and

175
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,920
then left the door open and
screamed your head off at

176
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:56,400
midnight that that that the
Steelers actually took president

177
00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,560
precedent over the peaceful
slumber of your own wife.

178
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,120
So I would say that, I mean, I
think your priorities are in

179
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,600
order, but she obviously does.
Yeah, and she runs the house, so

180
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,640
that means I'm either in the
base basement next time or I'm

181
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,680
not there.
I'm feeding for, not.

182
00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:17,680
There she was, quietly molding
you without you knowing.

183
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:18,760
It all right, listen, she's
been.

184
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,360
Doing that for 28 years.
Listen, I, I want to take this

185
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:26,040
in a, in a, in a, in a direction
that that leads us down a path

186
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,400
towards these play offs because
we had a lot to talk about

187
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,360
tonight.
I do want to acknowledge some of

188
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,400
our fans that are here with us
right now, Mr. Tommy says.

189
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:38,320
I'm shocked, Cotton.
Is that a pat off track thing?

190
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,000
I'm shocked.
No, no, I think I'm shocked.

191
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,680
Was regarding, you know, me
doing something.

192
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,800
OK.
And Mike Lawrence, who hopped on

193
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,240
over to YouTube from Facebook.
Thanks, Mike.

194
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,240
Click that subscribe button if
you're here.

195
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,920
Sorry, I've not been the
greatest Aaron Rodgers fan.

196
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,400
However, they would not have won
that game with anybody else

197
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,880
under center.
Yay, Aaron Pat off track is

198
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,120
saying that I don't know, maybe
I lie.

199
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,800
You're lie My my 28 years, you
know.

200
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:12,360
The fact that you know, I'm, I'm
not that affected by a Steeler

201
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,680
winner.
A lot, yeah, obviously you are.

202
00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:19,520
So you're at least affected by
the in in game situations.

203
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,400
In game situations are the
worst.

204
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,120
Yeah, so and so.
Anyway, The Steelers take the

205
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,200
crown with a 2624 win over
Baltimore.

206
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,840
Rogers to Metcalf is back for
the playoffs.

207
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,000
Actually, that's a good thing,
yeah.

208
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,680
Beef them up a little bit.
They're a very big thing.

209
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,640
Yeah, yeah.
Huge.

210
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,920
Huge thing.
It's a huge thing, a huge thing.

211
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,640
Metcalf grades incredible
receiver.

212
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:48,720
And we want your take, OK?
We want to.

213
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,760
We want your take.
We want to know.

214
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,080
And I, I think there's going to
be easy.

215
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:58,200
What what was the best moment or
your favorite moment of the 10

216
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,480
and seven regular season?
Drop in the comments.

217
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:06,320
We'll read them live.
You know, obviously we, we've,

218
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,120
we've, we've run a roller coat.
We've, we've ridden a roller

219
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,160
coaster this year, you know,
and, and that seems to be the

220
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:16,080
case the last few years.
And here we are again, you know,

221
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,480
heading back to the playoffs.
Now, I will say that that the

222
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:24,960
vitriol towards Mike Tomlin this
year seemed to get as bad as

223
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,240
it's ever.
Been it, did it.

224
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:27,280
Hit an all time.
High.

225
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:28,520
It did.
Yeah, it did.

226
00:11:28,680 --> 00:11:31,960
Right.
So then it was we had that reel

227
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,520
on Facebook that went out to
almost 300,000 people where

228
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:40,280
Schwaber was questioning if, if,
if they lose and collapse, you

229
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:42,720
know, is that the perfect time
to fire Tomlin?

230
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,280
Tomlin, would you rather lose
and collapse or sneak into the

231
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,360
playoffs and.
They were all over the place

232
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,360
with those comments.
Well, sides and I and I got to I

233
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:56,240
got to tell you that word sneak.
I did not I I chose that word

234
00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:01,400
because the Ravens missed a
really simple kick to win that

235
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,400
game and and and look great.
Game, you know what it it wasn't

236
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,920
that simple.
I I did go back and look, it was

237
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:08,720
40.
Four.

238
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,120
OK, I mean, I.
Think 44 when when when you

239
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:15,800
typically look at kicker stats,
you know they usually do it

240
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,800
Like, you know, 20 to 2930 to
3939, right?

241
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:24,320
Anything under 40 it's almost
like 100% but once you start

242
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,560
getting over 40 then then misses
happen.

243
00:12:26,680 --> 00:12:30,000
Well, of course, but but what
I'm what I'm saying though, is

244
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:34,160
that I don't think anybody
thought that was going to be a

245
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:35,760
mess.
I mean you.

246
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,360
Know who did?
Did you see this?

247
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,760
Kind of did what?
Rudolph did, did he?

248
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,840
Yeah.
There's there's video, there's

249
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,280
video footage.
You can look it up where he

250
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,680
turns the Aaron Rodgers 'cause
he was sitting beside him on the

251
00:12:49,680 --> 00:12:52,800
bench when they were sitting
there, he said he's going to

252
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,480
miss.
You.

253
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,480
Know you can't hear him clearly,
but you could see his words gone

254
00:12:58,480 --> 00:12:59,360
amiss.
You could.

255
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:00,560
You could.
You could see it.

256
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,880
Well, I knew it.
I mean, I, I thought it was

257
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,880
possible because, you know, he
was a rookie.

258
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,160
It's a lot of pressure to be
under for the first time.

259
00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:12,960
And actually, you know what,
Aaron Rodgers, I think helped

260
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:17,360
him a little bit, you know, had
the Steelers had the time out to

261
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,880
ice him.
I always think that actually

262
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,040
works counter to what you're
trying to do.

263
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,560
Yeah.
Like when the when the when you

264
00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:26,240
try to get iced, then what
happens is the kicker goes over

265
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,120
to Harbaugh and Harbaugh says
something to him like, hey, it's

266
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,840
just like any other kick man.
But he didn't have any time to

267
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,560
think about anything and just
kind of settle down.

268
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,000
He just had to go out there and
do it.

269
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,440
Yeah, You know, And he just went
quick and.

270
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,320
When, when I was watching, when
I was watching the replay for

271
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:45,120
the first time, yeah, when he
went backwards, normally they

272
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,680
they line up and they take steps
backwards.

273
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,920
He, he does, he doesn't do that.
He just kind of walked.

274
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,520
He walked, he walked backwards,
but he wasn't measuring his

275
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,560
steps.
When he got to the back, that's

276
00:13:55,560 --> 00:13:58,000
when he did his sidewards, you
know, 2 step.

277
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:02,160
Then he said that he, he, he
missed it even he knew why.

278
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:05,760
He said he hit it too light,
which means they like to hit the

279
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:11,000
4th cord on, on the grip.
If you hit the 4th cord on the

280
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,640
grip, it goes perfectly straight
exactly where you're aiming.

281
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,640
He said he knew as soon as he
kicked it, he kicked it too low,

282
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,280
and that always pushes it to the
right.

283
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,280
Gotcha.
And I was like, the fact that he

284
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,680
knows that is, is amazing.
You know, clearly this guy is a

285
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,600
kicker who thinks about what
he's doing.

286
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,160
But I'm glad he didn't think
about measuring out his steps

287
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,720
and missing the ball by 1/4 of
an inch.

288
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,600
You know what?
That's that's actually very

289
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,960
interesting because one of the
things, one of the things that

290
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,560
I've noticed, sorry to bring up
the Eagles here, but when Jake

291
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:46,400
Elliott goes through his funks,
I noticed that he doesn't take a

292
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,280
full swing.
And when he comes out of the

293
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,440
Funks, he's always driving right
through the ball as hard as he

294
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:53,520
can.
When no matter.

295
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,240
Where he is because he knows
exactly where to kick it, right?

296
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:57,400
Yeah.
Right, it's.

297
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,040
True.
And, and I think a lot of that,

298
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,840
because it's a, it's a timing
issue, a lot of that also

299
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,800
depends on how they feel about
the snap.

300
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,320
Because you could say it's a
perfect snap, But in that split

301
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,320
second where the snap comes, the
ball's down and the kicker is,

302
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,880
you know, pushing his driving
his leg through the ball.

303
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,520
He's got that's like a pitcher
in a batter in baseball.

304
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,720
He's got a millisecond to
decide, is that a good snap,

305
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,120
right.
So he's, he's throwing his foot

306
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,120
where he thinks it's supposed to
go.

307
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,040
So I think it's all the.
Coordination and that's why they

308
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,200
they mark where they're going to
put it because that's exactly

309
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,280
where he's aiming for that mark.
If he goes behind it, guess what

310
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,200
he's going to get underneath it.
If he goes forward, it could go

311
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,240
a little too too straight and
get.

312
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:46,400
Blocked, you know, OK.
It's, it's a, it's really much

313
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,240
harder than you think.
And I used I used.

314
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,600
To actually, I used to hold for
a point after attempts at day

315
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,720
school yeah and having a having
a good snap is everything

316
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,200
because if once you get it
there, it's just muscle memory

317
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,000
putting it down and getting it
there.

318
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,960
It's like that.
So I I think the kicker has it

319
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,880
has everything to worry about
when it comes to that, but

320
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,360
they're just kicking new a spot.
If you don't put it in that

321
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,240
spot, they're probably going to
miss.

322
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,280
How many times would you say you
had a kick blocked on your

323
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:17,840
watch?
Never 0.

324
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,200
For real, you never had one
block.

325
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:21,000
Never.
Not once.

326
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,120
So you.
Could have maybe gone Division

327
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:28,840
One holder?
You know, but if, if I was a

328
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,320
snapper, I, I, you know, I think
you can get far in the NFL being

329
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,720
a, a long snapper now.
All right, all right, we're

330
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,800
getting, we're getting, we're
getting people that, that are

331
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:39,560
dropping their comments in the
chat.

332
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,080
We want to, we want to get them
in here.

333
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:45,720
Ideally, says Mr. Tommy, you
want the Steelers to succeed as

334
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,280
it gives Tomlin a good way to
exit.

335
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,520
I don't know.
I'm not sure I I totally

336
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,200
understand that.
Maybe expand upon that?

337
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,280
For us, I think maybe what he's
thinking is like maybe they win

338
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,920
one playoff game, lose the
second one, close and then

339
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,839
decides, OK, time to step down.
Yeah, that could be.

340
00:17:04,839 --> 00:17:06,119
That could be.
The.

341
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,480
Only the only good way is if
they win the Super Bowl and he's

342
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,000
decides that's enough.
I'm good.

343
00:17:13,079 --> 00:17:16,520
Like that's time to walk.
Away I would if I was him.

344
00:17:16,599 --> 00:17:20,839
Cam Hayward, Alex Highsmith says
Mike Lawrence and Nick Herbigg

345
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:25,720
or Nate Herbigg or whoever the
hell he is had monster games.

346
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,760
They held Henry to about 25
yards in the second-half.

347
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,120
Yeah, we talked about that
yesterday.

348
00:17:30,120 --> 00:17:33,600
I mean, somebody had mentioned
the caller had mentioned on the

349
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,000
radio a couple days ago, you
know, Derrick Henry can actually

350
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,200
get over 100 yards and the
Steelers can win.

351
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,280
And my thought there was, yeah,
he's got a point there.

352
00:17:42,360 --> 00:17:45,560
But it's like, when is he going
to get that bulk of the 100

353
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,520
yards?
If he gets the bulk of the 100

354
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,000
yards in the beginning of the
game and then they shut him

355
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,680
down, there's a much better
chance If he gets the bulk of

356
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,480
that 100 yards in the end of the
game, that means they're running

357
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,680
the ball to tire them out and
they probably have a lead.

358
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,360
And it ended up.
Although it did it, it was just

359
00:18:00,360 --> 00:18:02,920
better not to give up 100 well.
Absolutely.

360
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:05,920
The other.
The other.

361
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,320
Actually, Mark, So what you're
saying is?

362
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,640
Giving up 100 yards.
So running back not good in

363
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,240
football but.
It then, then by by extension,

364
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:19,320
then then it's actually better
to give up 54 yards than 55.

365
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:25,200
That is correct.
Fine, whatever your mindless nut

366
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:30,400
ball of a brain thinks.
Mindless nut ball.

367
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,960
I mean, that took, that took,
That's right.

368
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,760
On though, he he did it.
He nailed the.

369
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,680
Line I did that took some effort
though.

370
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:40,160
Yeah, I I did think, I didn't
think this though, did I?

371
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,800
Did think this guy's if if we
would have if we would have said

372
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:48,120
before the game that Derrick
Henry is going to rush for 125

373
00:18:48,120 --> 00:18:52,800
yards and Lamar's going to throw
3 touchdown passes.

374
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,640
In almost 3.
Yeah, in almost 300.

375
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:55,960
Yards.
He didn't get almost 300.

376
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:57,680
Dollars, you'd say they're
definitely going to lose.

377
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,400
Yeah, pretty much, yeah.
Yeah.

378
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,560
I think you're right.
That's that's the way I would

379
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:04,360
think about that those.
Statistics.

380
00:19:04,360 --> 00:19:07,320
I said that yesterday I, I
looked at Lamar's passer rating

381
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,160
was like 120.
You know, like who, who gets,

382
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:13,840
who has a passer rating of 120
and, and loses a game.

383
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,680
I mean usually if the passer
rating is.

384
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:16,920
That, yeah, right.
Of course.

385
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:18,560
Right, right.
Of.

386
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,240
Course, that's the guy, so him
and Dak Press.

387
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,560
Him and Dak Press got the two
best worst players ever.

388
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,360
True.
Hey, I want to talk about this

389
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,240
thing that Pat says here.
What's Pat saying something

390
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:30,480
about Drexel?
How does that no.

391
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,840
No, no kickers, he says.
Kickers question mark.

392
00:19:34,120 --> 00:19:37,360
Can the name of the game change
the name of the game to

393
00:19:37,360 --> 00:19:39,960
Murderball?
Tear down the goal posts.

394
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,360
No punting.
Now, that's a little extreme,

395
00:19:42,360 --> 00:19:46,800
but there were a lot of former
players today just absolutely

396
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,400
berating the kicker situation.
Were they?

397
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:50,360
Yeah.
Who?

398
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,760
Who was doing?
This there was, I forget there

399
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,520
was there was a guy on ESPN
who's notorious for a hating

400
00:19:55,520 --> 00:20:00,680
kicker and he says, see, This is
why you had a guy make a

401
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,840
fantastic catch to win the game
and all that kicker's got to do

402
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,560
is go out there and and knock it
right between the goal posts.

403
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,000
Super easy thing to do and he
says the guy couldn't do it.

404
00:20:12,120 --> 00:20:15,600
There should be no kickers.
Kickers are not football players

405
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,400
is exactly what he said.
And and in some ways he's true.

406
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:23,080
Because kickers never get hit.
They don't really have to wear

407
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,520
pads.
All they have to do is just kick

408
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,920
the damn ball.
They don't have to do anything

409
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:29,960
but kick the ball.
They never really touch it with

410
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,800
anything but their foot. 4 * a
game.

411
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,120
If, if if they're lucky.
Well, but it it really is,

412
00:20:36,120 --> 00:20:37,760
though.
I, I, it's part of the game.

413
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,240
It's the third of the game it.
Is definitely part of the.

414
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,400
Game.
But he was just so irate.

415
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,600
I did, yeah.
I I disagree with that.

416
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,200
All those players, all those
players out on the field, given

417
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,240
they're, you know, beating each
other up and smashing each

418
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,480
other's heads, and this kicker
goes out there and misses the

419
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,080
kick.
Of course, in the, in the, in

420
00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:02,080
the off chance that a punter or
a kicker does get hit, it hurts

421
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:06,280
them a lot more.
So, but you know, kicking is

422
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,400
part of the, it's, it's part of
the strategy.

423
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,800
I mean, you've got, you've got,
think about the, the different

424
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,560
ways you can score in football.
You can score on defense.

425
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,480
You get 6 points, you get one
point.

426
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,280
You can choose for a 2 point.
You can get a safety for two

427
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,000
points.
Then there's a three-point score

428
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:29,160
so that there's ways that you
can score 123 and 6 points and

429
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,440
it real you can't get well that
that's some.

430
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,680
Bullshit.
You know my my problem.

431
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,520
My problem with with that
argument is the guy is basically

432
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,800
saying that likely's catch
should have won them the game,

433
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:45,160
right?
However, the Steelers kicker

434
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:49,480
missed an extra point himself.
But he was going off about

435
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,120
Boswell.
So if he had made that, then

436
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,920
Likely's Catch could only have
potentially tied the game,

437
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,160
right?
So I mean, you know, what are

438
00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,800
you going to do?
It's all situational.

439
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,640
Yeah, I think kickers are
definitely not football players,

440
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,200
but they are part of the game.
Chris Chotta, I love this quote.

441
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,520
Chris, thanks for being back.
We really appreciate it, Bill

442
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,240
Parcells said about his kicker
who wasn't feeling well.

443
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,160
He doesn't have to play.
He's got a kick.

444
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:19,400
So I, I think that's probably a,
you know, that, that that's a

445
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,680
common thread through the NFL is
that they, the kickers.

446
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,920
I mean, if I was going to be an
NFL player, I, I, I would choose

447
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,400
kicker because they get paid
well.

448
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:28,800
The other thing about kickers,
though?

449
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:30,760
I would not.
I would not choose kicker.

450
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,240
You meet, but the whole.
World hates you if you make a

451
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:34,360
mistake.
That's true, but.

452
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:35,800
Quarterback.
But you make.

453
00:22:36,360 --> 00:22:40,400
Well, that's true.
Give me $70 million and you

454
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,000
know, a half a football.
Yeah.

455
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,720
At best, yeah.
Maybe you have to be tried out

456
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,160
there once or.
Twice a year.

457
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:49,960
At best, Mr. Tom, maybe some
knees.

458
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,400
Blaming the game's win or loss
on one play is the dumbest shit.

459
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,800
This would only make sense if
football was a game with one

460
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,240
play per team.
You know and, and that is true,

461
00:22:58,280 --> 00:22:59,520
that is true.
I mean we.

462
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:03,000
Definitely give too much
credence over one play versus

463
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,960
the other, but that's the way it
is in this league, You know?

464
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,280
I mean, look at those, those two
catches by Zay Flowers.

465
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:13,520
If he doesn't catch that, he has
two catches for like 40 yards.

466
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:14,680
Yep.
And that's it.

467
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,040
And it's and the Steelers win.
The Steelers win by a lot more

468
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:19,840
so.
Yeah, I was actually thinking

469
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,800
during the game, you know, he is
garbage.

470
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,600
And then he had a great game.
Yeah, Yeah.

471
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,160
Then he had one of the best
games.

472
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:28,120
Right.
Yeah, one more for Mr. Tommy.

473
00:23:28,120 --> 00:23:31,080
The Ravens lost because of miss
field goal cost. 3 points, 4

474
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:36,000
punts cost 12 to 32 points, 1
turnover guy.

475
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,800
You know, I mean, that's I, I,
I, I get what you're saying.

476
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,560
Look, it's, it's a whole game
and, and, and, and there were

477
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,560
there were missed opportunities
on both sides of the ball the

478
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,040
whole game.
The first half, the Steelers at

479
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,680
the end of the at the end of the
half, instead of taking three

480
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:55,080
points, you know, at at that
point, it was what are they

481
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,240
doing, you know, leaving three
points on the board.

482
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:02,960
And, and that should have been
100% guaranteed no matter even

483
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,160
if the ball did go right, 'cause
they would have been kicking it

484
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,160
so close, right.
So, yeah, it's a team effort.

485
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,840
There's there's situations on
both sides of the ball that had

486
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,240
they gone the other way, either
team could have won.

487
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,480
The point is it came down to the
wire.

488
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,040
The Steelers defense did not
step up when it was supposed to.

489
00:24:19,360 --> 00:24:21,080
And they were left with a, with
a.

490
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,240
Well, they did it at periods
during the game, but not the

491
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,960
last drive, not the last three,
The last drive that.

492
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:27,240
Yeah.
And.

493
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,200
That's what they do every.
And we can.

494
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,360
We can, we broke that down last
night, but but the point is it

495
00:24:34,360 --> 00:24:41,720
came down to what as a fan, what
every fan wants the IT.

496
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,280
It's like bottom of the ninth.
It was a great game.

497
00:24:44,360 --> 00:24:46,760
Two outs, you know, just.
What Tomlin wanted.

498
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:48,720
Exactly.
And I was texting you guys that

499
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,360
during the game, he, he's got
him right where he wants him,

500
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:52,680
right where he wants him.
He.

501
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,640
Did when he knew what he was
doing, when he lost that bill

502
00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,160
the the Cleveland game.
He made this relevant and now we

503
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:00,600
have something to talk about for
another.

504
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,160
Yeah, thank.
You coach.

505
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,760
Team absolutely well.
Does anyone Does anyone want to

506
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,800
know how their pre season
predictions turned out?

507
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,560
Yes.
I absolutely want to know.

508
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,080
I know I got it right, the
number, but I I know that I

509
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,680
didn't get a lot of games right.
Correct, correct.

510
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:23,360
So just to keep it simple here.
I was on a roll at the.

511
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:28,200
Beginning Mark.
Mark and Steve nailed it on the

512
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,640
head, predicting that the
Steelers would go 10 and seven.

513
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,120
Chris wasn't too far off either,
predicted that the Steelers

514
00:25:36,120 --> 00:25:38,840
would go 11 and six.
Yeah, I guess he was feeling

515
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:40,640
some Rodgers love in the early
going.

516
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,800
He sure was.
But here's here's the the

517
00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,040
secondary part.
How many games did we actually

518
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,920
get right versus wrong?
I I started off hot then I just

519
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,600
fell out.
The Grand Schwabini led the way

520
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:59,200
going 12 and five on the year,
12 and five, nice and Hockey

521
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,160
Jesus was almost there, 11:00
and 6:00 on the year.

522
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,680
Not bad.
Now this is where Chris kind of

523
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:13,360
enters a different stratosphere.
He, he was, he predicted the

524
00:26:13,360 --> 00:26:15,440
stewards to go 11 and six.
They were one off.

525
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:19,000
They went ten and seven.
But as far as the actual games

526
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,880
were concerned, he went 8:00 and
9:00.

527
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:24,760
You could.
You could toss a coin and do

528
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:26,840
better.
Yeah, you could toss a coin and

529
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,440
do better.
They're always coming after me.

530
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,800
They they they do it while I'm
like working up stuff for the

531
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,840
show too, so I can't respond.
I'm.

532
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:38,240
Glad you did that because I was,
I was, I thought I I didn't do

533
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,440
as well as as well as you said,
so I was happy to hear that.

534
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,880
Anthony says it's so crazy to
look back on this season and you

535
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,040
can argue this should have been
a 12 and five team or a six and

536
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:50,920
eleven team.
Oh yeah, I.

537
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,080
Mean, Anthony's right on.
I mean, you know, it's exactly

538
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,080
what this team is.
You know what's interesting and

539
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,560
I don't want to work up the
stats now, but I guarantee you

540
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:03,000
that you could probably what are
the 32 teams in the NFLI bet you

541
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:07,080
18 or 19 of them easily.
You could do the same thing

542
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,480
because a lot of games come down
to 1 score and you could flip

543
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,280
that script.
I mean, it'd be interesting to

544
00:27:12,360 --> 00:27:15,880
see what I mean.
Not not that well, maybe would

545
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,520
you go to an extreme see what
The Jets record would have been

546
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,960
if in in one score games that
they would have flipped?

547
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,520
I mean, I don't care you.
Can't go back and do that

548
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,920
because it's ridiculous.
Yeah, that's exactly right.

549
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,640
Because I would go back to the
Seattle game and I would not put

550
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,280
Caleb Johnson in there.
There you go.

551
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,840
Who was a scratch, by the way,
in this?

552
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,800
Game bye bye Caleb.
I mean other ways to draft pick

553
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,000
A.
Guy that they drafted so high

554
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,000
and he's not even dressed for
the most important game of the

555
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,040
year.
But here's how terrible is their

556
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:45,320
draft.
Here's the thing.

557
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,600
Let's let's save that for the
draft.

558
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,400
I'm sorry, 'cause we got a.
When I heard, when I heard he

559
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,760
wasn't even dressed, I was like
holy shit.

560
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,360
Well.
You know what, I actually, I'm

561
00:27:55,360 --> 00:27:56,480
going to stick with that for a
second.

562
00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:00,760
There was a comment made by, I
want to say Al Michaels last

563
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,000
night where he said at a kick
off.

564
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:04,360
You guys probably you might
remember.

565
00:28:04,360 --> 00:28:06,360
This you wasn't.
You wasn't announcing the game.

566
00:28:06,360 --> 00:28:08,240
Or not.
It was Sunday.

567
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:09,840
It was Monday Night Football.
What was it?

568
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:11,040
It was.
Collinsworth last night.

569
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:12,440
Yeah, it was.
Collinsworth and Tariq.

570
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,320
And Tariq, my apologies.
Yeah, where where either Tariqa,

571
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,840
I'm pretty sure it was Tariq.
There was Baltimore was kicking

572
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:24,040
the ball off and they had Warren
and Gainwell back to to to

573
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:29,040
return it.
And he said Jalen Warren and and

574
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:32,760
Kenneth Gainwell, the two
Steeler running backs on the

575
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:34,840
roster tonight, are back to
return.

576
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,920
It did click in my head like,
what the hell happens if one of

577
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,640
them gets hurt?
You know, like that's how little

578
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,360
they thought of Caleb Johnson.
Like, we don't even want you on

579
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,920
the roster.
I know, But I think it's because

580
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:52,880
they, they, they of, of some
secondary stuff and also the

581
00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,840
Connor Hayward as a fullback
looks to be working.

582
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,520
They they, they've had to.
Remember I said that the other

583
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,040
week?
I said why don't they have Cam

584
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,120
Hayward to fullback?
You did, Connor.

585
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:03,400
Yeah, Connor.
Yeah.

586
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,560
Well, they kind of threw Cam in
there.

587
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,440
Cam was a fullback.
He was he.

588
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,480
Was in there.
He's playing some offense now,

589
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,600
too.
The true brother, Alicia, Yeah.

590
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:13,920

607
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,320
It's so crazy to look back on
this season.

608
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:57,680
You can.
Oh, yeah, I just read that.

609
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:00,440
Never mind, never mind.
Did say that the Seattle game

610
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,960
still haunts him.
Though Yeah, Pat Pat off track.

611
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,720
Anybody thinks Swabini could
could play in the 6th floor flag

612
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,160
football secondary?
I'm gonna.

613
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,320
Believe it or not.
Yes, I think.

614
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,360
Yeah, he's fast.
He's faster than you think.

615
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:14,840
He.
Was a lot skinnier back then.

616
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:19,360
Believe it or not, I and Pat, I
need to know this from you.

617
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:24,560
There was a late night fire
alarm that went off and there

618
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,600
was a there was there was a
game.

619
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,760
No, I was in towers.
Towers.

620
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,920
Towers in Calhoun were right
next to each other at Drexel.

621
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:37,480
And so there was a a alarm that
went off and we were playing

622
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,160
like some football, like 2:00
AM, And I actually was

623
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,560
dominating at the at the safety
position.

624
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,400
I really was.
It really was, Yeah.

625
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,640
And I was wondering if Pat might
have been there.

626
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:52,680
The Daryl Stingley of his day.
Yeah, I don't know.

627
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:57,840
Mr. Tommy averaged 24, the
average points for 23.4 versus

628
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,920
average points.
Against I've got some things I

629
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,840
got as far as Houston and
Steelers when it when it comes

630
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,680
down the team stats.
Yeah, let's let's, let's, let's,

631
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,600
let's preview Houston.
And I and I think this is great

632
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,280
to get in here.
Oh, this is a great find of a

633
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:13,680
podcast.
My type of vibe.

634
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,320

00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:24,880
I'll believe it Mark is what Pat
off track says so yeah let let's

637
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:28,840
let's move on here.
First of all, I, I, I feel like

638
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,560
since we're going into the
playoffs and since this whole

639
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:37,840
Aaron Rodgers thing from day one
has completely been different I

640
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,400
think than most of us thought.
I mean, as far as play goes, I

641
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,080
don't think so.
There's been some ups and downs.

642
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,280
We expected that because of his
age and all of that stuff.

643
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,600
But I think as far as his
attention to the media and the

644
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,600
fans and his responses to
questions and the way he's

645
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,560
handled himself a professional,
how can you say anything but?

646
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,640
Oh, he's been a joy.
Yeah, Actually, yeah.

647
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,200
And he has been good.
And think about all the shit

648
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,800
that we went through for all
that time he's in the woods

649
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,880
deciding what's his fucking
problem.

650
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:06,880
You know all that kind of.
Stuff.

651
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:09,720
I think he's still he's.
Going to go on the Mac show and

652
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,800
he's going to throw people under
the bus didn't.

653
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:12,720
Do that at all.
But yeah.

654
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,760
He he, but I also think he he
knew he needed to clean his act

655
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:18,080
up.
Yep, you know well.

656
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,080
He's he's reaching the end,
right?

657
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,760
People always remember who you
are at the end more than they

658
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:24,320
do, right?
Where you that asshole?

659
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:25,160
Right.
Yeah.

660
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:29,240
I mean, I'll say this.
He's still not afraid to, like,

661
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,600
yell at coaches.
Oh yeah, He was yelling at

662
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,040
Arthur.
Smith, he was definitely not.

663
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:35,640
Happy with?
Some of the stuff going on.

664
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,560
But I think the way that he does
it is not in a disrespectful

665
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,480
way.
I think it's, I think there's a,

666
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:45,720
it's all about his frustration
for the play as opposed to the

667
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,880
kind of player that like wants
to get the ball, you know, and,

668
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,440
and is in it for himself.
His frustration is we got to get

669
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,320
better at this.
What is this going on?

670
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,200
But.
You know, he's checking out of

671
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,040
some of those run plays.
I think that's hurting Steelers

672
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,480
a little bit.
They do need to get a little bit

673
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,680
more running in and he just
feels comfortable, you know,

674
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,120
throwing the ball and he did
well, but there's going to come

675
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:08,800
a time when he's not going to do
well and he's.

676
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,600
Going to Well, we've seen that.
We've seen that.

677
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,000
And that's going to cost him a
playoff game potential.

678
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,640
So that be that be you.
Got to have the right, you got

679
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,440
to have the right mix, and he
did last.

680
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,320
Night That's right.
And that that being said, I

681
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,720
mean, I want to stay on the
positive side of things for

682
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,320
this.
And one of our one of our fans

683
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,520
just shot a comment up.
I didn't put it up.

684
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:27,920
Or if I did, it was just for a
second.

685
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,080
Do you think Rodgers is going to
be back next year?

686
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,000
Not going to talk about that
right now.

687
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:33,960
You know, pump the brakes.
Do you think he's going to be

688
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:35,800
back next year?
I'm not going to talk about that

689
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,360
right now.
Pump the brakes.

690
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,480
I I just don't think it's a
subject and I know that that all

691
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,800
over the media that, you know,
speculation, people want to they

692
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,600
want to consume that.
But it's a waste of time right

693
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,880
now to talk about whether or not
Aaron Rodgers is coming back for

694
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:52,800
a couple reasons.
First of all, we got a playoff

695
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,280
game coming up that we
desperately want to win his fans

696
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,960
and as a team, I'm sure
absolutely, you know, and and

697
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,600
second of all, at the end of the
year, he's a free agent anyway.

698
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,200
And if he decides he wants to
play again, maybe it will be the

699
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,920
Steelers, maybe it won't, but
but I'm sure we'll have some

700
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,639
opinions about it then.
So for right now, I just want

701
00:34:10,639 --> 00:34:13,480
the guy to come in and play well
next week and get us a playoff

702
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,360
win so we can start dreaming
about a Super Bowl.

703
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,800
I mean, I'll take dreaming about
a Super Bowl.

704
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,120
You can dream now.
Absolutely, I guess you can.

705
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,040
We're in the playoffs.
You might as well playoffs now.

706
00:34:23,159 --> 00:34:25,600
You know, like Rooney says, if
you you get in, anything can

707
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,159
happen, anything can happen.
Yeah, that that we're.

708
00:34:28,159 --> 00:34:30,440
Not even a wild card you.
Know right, Right.

709
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,760
We got a home playoff.
Although you know what though, I

710
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,639
actually though, I sort of feel
like when you do win your

711
00:34:37,639 --> 00:34:41,280
division, I kind of feel like if
you're a three or a four, you're

712
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:42,400
a wild card team.
Well.

713
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,360
Yeah, clearly.
I mean, look at our record

714
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,320
compared to Houston.
And Houston's won, right?

715
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,560
What, eight in a row?
Seven in a row. 9.

716
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:49,560
Yeah.
Have they?

717
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:50,840
Yeah.
Nine games in a.

718
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,440
Row nine in a row, they're
they're on fire, yeah.

719
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,760
Chris Chotta, what happened with
the communication issues and

720
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,760
burning those TO's rapid fire?
They never explained.

721
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,400
I'll tell you what, here's
here's when it'll be supposedly

722
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,120
explained at Tomlin's press
conference tomorrow.

723
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,160
Yeah, on his Tuesday at noon.
Get on the fan.

724
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,240
Listen to the press conference.
I guarantee you they they'll be

725
00:35:10,240 --> 00:35:11,400
asking.
This too.

726
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,040
You can catch it on the
Steelers.

727
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,640
Yeah, yeah, that, that's so I, I
have no idea, but but look, a

728
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,280
wins, a win, we're going into
the playoffs.

729
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:23,720
I, I do want to give Tomlin, I
got to give him props right now

730
00:35:23,720 --> 00:35:26,080
for bringing him back and
keeping him in that game.

731
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:31,120
Here's a little history for you.
Mike Tomlin has just tied Chuck

732
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:34,200
Knoll with 193 regular season
wins.

733
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,480
Don't even go.
There I I don't care about that

734
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:39,320
question.
Is this his best coaching job?

735
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,320
We we don't have to talk.
I got AI, got a Tomlin answer

736
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,880
for the communications.
Go for it.

737
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,840
Go for.
It he's going to say, well, we

738
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:49,520
did have some communication
issues.

739
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,200
There was a problem with the
headsets, but you know, we like

740
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,800
to take that head on.
We like to run to the

741
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,200
communication, not away from the
communication.

742
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:03,080
So do you think he'll be talking
about his aunt being an uncle

743
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,040
again?
Did you hear that?

744
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:06,120
No.
I didn't hear that.

745
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:07,240
Oh, you didn't hear that?
No.

746
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:11,080
He somebody was asking him,
asking him a what if question

747
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,280
and his response was, I have it
right here.

748
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:16,920
You know how it is.
If my aunt had male parts, she'd

749
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,000
be my uncle.
That's exactly what.

750
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:20,280
He said said that.
Wow, Oh my gosh.

751
00:36:21,720 --> 00:36:22,000
Wow.
That's.

752
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:23,800
What he said that's.
Crazy he.

753
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:26,640
Said it he's and he said it with
a straight face and he was like,

754
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,280
next question right, right,
right, right.

755
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,840
Oh my, that and that's a clue.
I can't believe you guys didn't.

756
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,120
Hear this?
That OK.

757
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:37,240
All over the Internet.
So we got a big weekend coming

758
00:36:37,240 --> 00:36:39,600
up here.
We got once again, we got this,

759
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,840
this big weekend of football,
the wild card games and

760
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,600
everything.
And then the very last game is

761
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:47,240
the Steelers.
Game Monday night.

762
00:36:47,240 --> 00:36:49,400
I like those odds.
Well, you know who you're going

763
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,560
to play if you win.
Yeah, I, I, I, I, I like that

764
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,800
so.
The best part about it will be

765
00:36:55,800 --> 00:37:01,640
that you'll be 1 of what, 5
remaining teams or something?

766
00:37:01,720 --> 00:37:03,200
In the AFC.
In the AFC.

767
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:04,680
Yeah, right, right.
Yeah.

768
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,280
It'll be in the final five.
Absolutely knocked out.

769
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,720
At at that.
Point and you'll still be alive.

770
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:13,720
So what we do is we do our porch
picks every year and we did.

771
00:37:13,720 --> 00:37:16,880
We're going to do them now and
I'm actually saving the Texan

772
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:21,600
Steelers game for last.
So, So porch picks, what do we

773
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:25,920
do every every week?
We pick a Thursday game or a

774
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,600
Saturday game, Sunday game and
Sunday night game.

775
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:31,760
This past week.
It's been a really tight year,

776
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:35,920
really tight year.
This past week, Mark and Chris

777
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,200
picked the Niners.
Steve picked the Seahawks.

778
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:42,400
You're welcome, Mark and Chris.
Mark and Mark and Steve picked

779
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,280
the Panthers.
Chris picked the Bucks.

780
00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,960
I don't think I won, no.
Mark picked the Ravens.

781
00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:49,680
Steve and Chris picked the
Steelers.

782
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:51,120
Chris and Steve were two and
one.

783
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,480
Mark was Oh, and three. 00 and
3:00.

784
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,400
At the end of the year.
Wait a minute.

785
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,680
Yeah.
Yeah, you picked this, you

786
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,120
picked the.
I picked the Panthers Carolina.

787
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:02,520
Yeah.
Wait a minute, wait a minute.

788
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:03,400
Yeah, you did.
You picked.

00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:05,840
The you picked the Niners.
Yeah.

790
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:06,960
You picked the Niners.
Yeah, yeah.

791
00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:08,640
So you've done?
43.

792
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:09,720
You know, last week.
Wow.

793
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:14,080
So at the end of the regular
season, HJ pulls out a victory

794
00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:20,360
at 29 and 27, and the TD and the
Grand Swabini are tied at 27 and

795

29.
What is Are we just doing the

796
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,480
regular season?
No, no, we're adding it in.

797
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:26,960
We're, we're, we're, we're
adding it in.

798
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,440
So this week we're going to do
all of the playoff games,

799
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:39,840
starting with the Rams at the
Panthers.

800
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:43,720
Who the funk?
By by the way, just in case

801
00:38:43,720 --> 00:38:47,560
anybody is interested, there
have been a total of four

802
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:51,560
playoff games with a team that
won the division with a losing

803
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:56,360
record, and those teams with
losing records are three and

804
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:57,080
one.
Nice.

805
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,520
All right, that's interesting.
They're always the under.

806
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:03,000
So Saturday, 4:30 PM, Rams at
the Panthers.

807
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:06,080

the chat.

Well, I guess I get to go. 1st
and well.

809
00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:10,680
You're the leader in the
clubhouse.

810
00:39:10,720 --> 00:39:14,000
Yeah, because you pulled out the
victory and right and I go

811
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:14,760
second.
Well.

812
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:18,680
Thank you for that tidbit on
Carolina, but doesn't affect my

813
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:19,960
pick.
I'm going with the Rams.

814
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,480
Yeah, I believe I I've taken the
Rams to go far in the playoffs.

815
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,480
If I if I remember my original.
I have, I have all that

816
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:29,760
information.
I have it.

817
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,320
I have it here too.
OK, so.

818
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:34,040
Rams.
I'm going with the Rams.

819
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:42,000
All right, I am going to go with
3 and 1.

820
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:47,680
Here it is.
I'm going with the Rams, too, he

821
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:49,560
says.
I had the Rams versus the

822
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:51,360
Vikings, by the way.
Grand.

823
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:52,120
No, you didn't.
Yeah.

824
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,240
Oh, Ram.
OK, Yeah, right now.

825
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:56,120
See.
Right here.

826
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,840
Yeah, I got you.
OK, come on, let's go.

827
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,120
We got we got people with their
picks coming in here.

828
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,160
Rams at Panthers.
MVP Stafford, right on.

829
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:17,200
Michael Lawrence Panthers.
I got a 75% shot.

830
00:40:17,240 --> 00:40:20,520
Yeah, you do, according to the
according to the according to

831
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:24,000
previous.
All right, Anthony says Rams by

832
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:28,920
17, Nakua drops 135 and
Parkinson gives you a touchdown.

833
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:33,400
Mike Lawrence says Rams with MVP
Stafford.

834
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:37,320
OK, Next up, the Packers at the
Bears.

835
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:38,800
Didn't we just see a game like
this?

836
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:43,520
The Packers at the Bears,
Saturday at 8:00 PM.

837
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:47,880
Packers at the Bears.
Comment your pick below.

838
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:54,120
Oh boy, I I don't like this game
at all because I think the Bears

839
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,880
are going to win, but I'm going
to just go with my gut and just

840
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,960
say Green Bay.
OK, I think the Bears are going

841
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,200
to win, but I'm going to go with
my gut and say Green Bay.

842
00:41:04,240 --> 00:41:06,080
Yep.
My gut says Green Bay.

843
00:41:06,240 --> 00:41:09,440
My head says bears.
OK, gone with my gut.

844
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:11,680
I'm going with the Bears on this
one.

845
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:15,040
Caleb Williams, 4th out.
Did he get 4000 yards passing?

846
00:41:15,240 --> 00:41:18,040
No, but I mean come on.
He he most past yards in

847
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:19,440
franchise history.
Most past.

848
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,160
Yards in franchise history did
not make it the 4000.

849
00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,400
That will be for next.
Year, I'm going with the bears,

850
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:26,600
you know.
I'm I'm thinking, you know, just

851
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:31,240
the way the the bears played
yesterday, getting down 16

852
00:41:31,240 --> 00:41:33,760
nothing in the fourth quarter to
to the Lion they.

853
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,200
Are resilient.
They they are resilient, but at

854
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:41,200
the same time, they also sort of
they kind of epitomize A-Team

855
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:47,760
that's never been there before.
And so I'm going to say that

856
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:51,560
Mister Love, who has been there
before, is going to have one of

857
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,600
his good games.
He's going to be hitting

858
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:58,240
receivers all over the place.
You know Jake Jacobs is going to

859
00:41:58,240 --> 00:42:01,800
run the ball and the defense is
going to show up.

860
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:04,640
Even without Micah.
I say Packers.

861
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:10,280
The Grand Schwab and he says the
Packers Mike Lawrence bears by

862
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,440
three Anthony bears.
This would be unreal if Green

863
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:17,360
Bay was healthy on defense.
I get what you're saying.

864
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:21,400
This is this is Pat off track.
Of course, Josh Allen MVP Oscar

865
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:23,360
nominated bride pregnant with
twins.

866
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:24,720
Great.
Thanks, Pat off.

867
00:42:24,720 --> 00:42:29,640
Track Hailee Steinfeld case
anybody was wondering?

868
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,120
All right, Next up.
I hate this graphic I found, but

869
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:35,800
it's the only one I could find.
Bills at the Jaguars Pat off

870
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:37,240
track.
This would be a good time to say

871
00:42:37,240 --> 00:42:39,880
something on track.
Bill Bills at the Jags.

872
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,200
The Jags had a hell of a year
this year.

873
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:45,880
Bills at the Jaguars.
Your pick in the comments.

874
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:50,200
That's Sunday at 1:00 PM.
Bills are at the Jack well.

875
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,760
I have.
I have the Bills winning the

876
00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:54,960
Super Bowl this year, so I got
to stick with my Bills.

877
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:56,000
All right.
OK.

878
00:42:56,000 --> 00:43:00,120
So HJ is going with the bills.
Pat says he's going to the game

879
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,760
so we expect live up to date
tax.

880
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:04,800
Nice.
That would be awesome.

881
00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:06,840
All right.
I hear Jacksonville's just like

882
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:08,400
a hole.
Yeah, yeah.

883
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:10,040
That's why, that's why, that's
why he's going.

884
00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:11,600
He could probably get tickets
for like 25.

885
00:43:11,720 --> 00:43:14,000
Bucks What kind of hole?
Shed hole.

886
00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,640
Yeah, the the, the what?
The stadium.

887
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:18,240
The stadium.
No, just Jackson.

888
00:43:18,240 --> 00:43:22,120
Just Jacksonville as a whole,
It's just a dirty, grimy kind

889
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:23,280
of.
It's not.

890
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:25,040
It's not a.
Classy place it's.

891
00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,960
Not a classy Florida place.
Like the ones that like.

892
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,720
The one where Pat lives.
Where the riff raff hang out,

893
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:33,760
Florida.
Bills and Jaguars.

894
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,840
Bills and Jaguars.
Just, you know, trash the whole

895
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:37,840
town.
Who you going with?

896
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:39,600
Yeah, I'm going with the
Jaguars.

897
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,880
I'm going with the Jaguars as
well.

898
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:48,480
I still wonder how Josh Allen
plays as well as he does with

899
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,480
nobody to throw the ball to.
I mean, when your best receiver

900
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:56,040
is like Shakur and he's like
your, you know your, you know

901
00:43:56,040 --> 00:44:00,640
your slot guy.
I think the Jags just are

902
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:04,200
bringing it this year and they
will win the game.

903
00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:05,280
There you go.
There you go.

904
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:07,880
I think Jags could be in the.
Super Bowl they could.

905
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,560
I mean, Anthony, it wouldn't
surprise me.

906
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:12,560
This year Anthony give me the
Jags.

907
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:14,720
Cone has that team rolling and
Lawrence prove why you don't

908
00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:19,800
give up on your young QB at the
end has resurrected as well.

909
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,840
Jacksonville is crappy, says
Mark Mike Lawrence.

910
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:28,240
He takes the bills, the Bills,
All right, this is a big one.

911
00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,320
This is a big one for the grand
Schwab beanie.

912
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:34,600
The 49ers are coming back into
town.

913
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:38,560
They're going to see the Eagles,
the. 40 whiners.

914
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:42,640
The 40 whiners at the Eagles
comment your pick below.

915
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:50,360
This is Sunday at 4:30 PM HJ.
Well, I've taken 2 away teams.

916
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,120
I guess I should take a home
team here.

917
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:55,800
Let's go with the EAGLES.
Eagles.

918
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,840
I like the little added
excitement to it.

919
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,280
That's why I'm here.
I got to tell you I'm.

920
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,080
Here too excite you?
Have the Eagles winning the

921
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,000
Super.
I got to tell you, I know I got

922
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,680
to tell you, I know I got to
tell you I got to take the

923
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,120
eagles.
I'm concerned, but I got I got

924
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,040
to take the Eagles for this.
Why are you concerned?

925
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:16,160
Because, I mean, it's a football
game.

926
00:45:16,720 --> 00:45:19,400
They just couldn't score points.
So you mean it's one of those

927
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:21,800
things where one team's going to
win, one team's going to lose?

928
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,240
Yeah, so you're concerned about
one team lose?

929
00:45:24,240 --> 00:45:26,920
Somebody could get hurt.
Somebody could not get hurt.

930
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,880
All right, Branch Robini, we
know you're going with the

931
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:31,400
Eagles.
Yeah, I have to go with the

932
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,440
Eagles otherwise.
Otherwise, why like live out the

933
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:38,520
rest of the week?
Yeah, well, you could like we're

934
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,600
gonna have, we're having a
support group on Monday night.

935
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,040
That's true for Steve's pending
divorce, right?

936
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:47,160
So you could come out and we
could talk you out of, you know,

937
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:48,480
harm.
Self harm.

938
00:45:49,240 --> 00:45:50,760
Yeah, if the Eagles.
Might need that.

939
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:52,840
Yeah, I might need.
That OK, So yeah, we'll be there

940
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,200
for each other.
We'll have pizza and lot keys.

941
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:56,800
How about that Pizza and lot
keys?

942
00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,520
There you go.
Little sideways, little

943
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:01,120
sideways.
Jab there.

944
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:05,640
All right, Chargers at Patriots.
Let's see, we got some comments

945
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:07,040
in here.
Hurt steps up.

946
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:10,920
Eagles win, says Mike Lawrence.
Anthony says the Niners CMC gets

947
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,080
41 touches.
Laugh my ass off.

948
00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:17,120
Chargers at the Patriot
Patriots.

949
00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:24,240
What say you HJ?
That is Sunday at 8:00 PM.

950
00:46:24,240 --> 00:46:27,400
Excuse me, charges at the pets?
Yeah, I think the Patriots are

951
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:29,720
for real.
I'm finally on the Drake May

952
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,400
bandwagon.
Count me a Patriots fan.

953
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:38,840
But then if that is true, then
we we leave this game again

954
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,400
saying he might be.
I don't.

955
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:43,120
I don't.
He might be he.

956
00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:44,720
Might be on that road, he might
be.

957
00:46:44,720 --> 00:46:46,960
A fraud he could he.
Might be he's a fraud.

958
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:49,280
I mean they I don't.
Have a big lead.

959
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:51,120
Last year, I mean, I don't think
you come.

960
00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:54,000
Back from that we had like like
3 or 4 interceptions and they.

961
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:57,080
Won that game last year, right?
Does he do it again?

962
00:46:57,080 --> 00:46:57,600
Yeah.
I don't know.

963
00:46:57,600 --> 00:46:59,400
I don't know.
It's no tie.

964
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:01,440
Law out.
All right, so you said patriots.

965
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:03,680
I am going.
I have the Chargers going to the

966
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:07,360
Super Bowl yes.
And I, I regret that pic now

967
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:12,240
because I too have been I, I
watched a bunch of Pats games

968
00:47:12,240 --> 00:47:16,040
this year and you guys know I
would text you randomly during

969
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:17,960
those games.
Drake Mays, the real deal.

970
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:19,400
He knows how to play
quarterback.

971
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:24,120
And Mike Rabel has very quickly
turned that culture around that

972
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:27,040
he's got a he's, he's got a
playbook to work with from the

973
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,000
Belichick years and the Brady
years.

974
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,920
I would love to pick the
Patriots, but I'm not going to

975
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,640
I, I'm going to say the Chargers
are going to go in because they

976
00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:40,280
have a guy named Jim Harbaugh,
the other Harbaugh.

977
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:41,920
Who's going to?
Who's going to Will?

978
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,400
Them somehow.
To a victory, so I'm taking the

979
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:50,360
Chargers.
You know, it's this is I'll tell

980
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:51,800
you what, this one's like a toss
up.

981
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,520
Yeah, it is because this this is
kind of like, let me flip a coin

982
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:55,120
for you.
Yeah.

983
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:56,000
Flip a coin.
No.

984
00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:59,760
This is kind of.
Like, is Herbert going to

985
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:04,440
finally step up and say I'm a
real quarterback, Tails, you

986
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:11,080
know?
Or is Drake May going to, you

987
00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:16,200
know, find himself wallowed up
in a cocoon because it's the

988
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:19,680
playoffs and he's never been
there and he, you know, gets too

989
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:22,680
hyped up and makes overthrows
and throws interceptions.

990
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:24,800
You know, it could happen.
It could happen.

991
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,120
They could both kind of like
what you were saying.

992
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:31,360
It's like, you know, I'm
concerned because one team could

993
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,520
win and the other could lose.
That's a big concern you have.

994
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:36,600
So that's that's really.
Kind of sticking in my.

995
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:40,760
Crawl.
Yeah, I'm gonna, I'm gonna go.

996
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:42,920
I'm, I guess I'm gonna go with
the Patriots.

997
00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,280
All right, let's let's say they
win all of that.

998
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:46,560
Sticking in your.
Crawl.

999
00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:51,560
Just so I can write down
Patriots fantastic crawl.

1000
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:56,200
All right, let's move on.
We got the big one.

1001
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,320
This is the one we all want to
talk about.

1002
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,840
Now before we do that, I want to
thank you for being here.

1003
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:04,640

We're building this channel 1

1006
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,720
a time.
We're trying to get the 500 as

1007
00:49:13,720 --> 00:49:16,440
quick as we can pay attention
because we dropped lots of

1008
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:20,040
shorts right after the show.
We have a lot of fun with those

1009
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:23,240
click notifications.
Every Monday night, 7:00 PM

1010
00:49:23,240 --> 00:49:26,000
Eastern Time, after every
Steelers game, we do a post

1011
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,240
game.
And not to forget that Hockey

Jesus down here is on after
every single Penguins game.

1013
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:35,600
We might have a problem with
that coming coming forward.

1014
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,840
Are you going to be able to?
I don't get nearly as animated

1015
00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:41,080
with those as.
I do with that playoff game.

1016
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:43,240
Well, you just have to put a
sticky note up that says.

1017
00:49:43,240 --> 00:49:45,240
Close the door.
OK.

1018
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:47,440
Can we just move on?
Yes, we can.

1019
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:48,040
Just.
Move on.

1020
00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:49,080
All right, last.
Game.

1021
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:54,200
This is it.
Steelers hosting the Houston

1022
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:58,480
Texans, This is it man.
Maybe before we we make our

1023
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:00,760
predictions here, Steve.
Can give us some of that inside

1024
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:04,160
information we're going to get
to that after.

1025
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,440
Right after the pick we.
Can't do it before the pick.

1026
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:08,920
No, we can't.
We can't make, we can't make

1027
00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:10,000
the.
Choice based on better.

1028
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:12,640
Information that's correct.
This is this is the way you only

1029
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:14,280
you only.
You have that information if you

1030
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:16,440
wanted.
It you should have asked for.

1031
00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:19,600
It by the I, I have to say this
out loud because I'm shocked by

1032
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,640
this.
I actually have in the in the

1033
00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:24,680
divisional round, Texans versus
Pittsburgh.

1034
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,600
I called this game at the
beginning of the season right

1035
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:30,080
there, but I had Texans.
Winning the division.

1036
00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:35,360
So I didn't have it quite right,
but I had this match up so and I

1037
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,040
had Pittsburgh winning.
So guess what?

1038
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,360
I'm going with the burgers, all
right?

1039
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:42,720
You mean the stillers?
Pittsburghers liens, guys.

1040
00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:45,120
All right, Texans, it's
Steelers.

1041
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:49,440
This is your.
Chance put your prediction in

1042
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:52,400
the chat.
Oh, I, I forgot this.

1043
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:55,960
Drake May folds, Chargers win,
says Mike Lawrence.

1044
00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:57,880
I love this.
This is hilarious.

1045
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:00,720
Pat's another handsome white guy
at QB for New England.

1046
00:51:00,720 --> 00:51:04,120
The world is healing.
LA charges just can't protect

1047
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:06,640
Herbert.
Ain't Anthony ain't wrong about

1048
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:06,960
that.
He's.

1049
00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:08,720
Spot on.
Yeah, he is pretty handsome.

1050
00:51:08,720 --> 00:51:10,360
Welcome.
Of course, Anthony, you're

1051
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:11,720
gonna, you're gonna do well
here.

1052
00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:16,960
All right, Texans at Steelers.
You know, what's interesting is

1053
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,280
I'm, I'm going to say the
Steelers are going to win.

1054
00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:23,360
I, you know, they, to me,
there's a lot of forces at play

1055
00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:25,480
here.
You've got the, you've got the

1056
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,960
playoff, you've got the playoff
drought, but they're playing on

1057
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:32,280
a Monday night.
There is a, the Aaron Rodgers

1058
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,480
experiment.
Look, it's been a few years

1059
00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:41,320
since we've had a guy like Aaron
Rodgers mentally as quarterback

1060
00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,800
back there.
He's turned into a leader.

1061
00:51:44,240 --> 00:51:45,800
I'm giving this game to the
Steelers.

1062
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,080
I have no idea what the score is
going to be.

1063
00:51:48,720 --> 00:51:52,240
You know, it was they did the
they the over under was 40

1064
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:54,440
against the Ravens and they
scored.

1065
00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:57,680
What was the total was 4051 or
something like that.

1066
00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:01,680
Or it was whatever it was, it
was over this game.

1067
00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:06,560
This game could come down to
being a very low scoring game.

1068
00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,720
But a lot of people say that
because of the defenses, but but

1069
00:52:09,720 --> 00:52:14,880
I always find that this game
could be a 45 to 42 game because

1070
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:16,640
both of these teams just open it
up.

1071
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:20,120
So yeah, so I I'm going.
With the Steelers.

1072
00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:23,440
Grand Schwabini, I guess I'll
be.

1073
00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:26,360
The dud and say that the Texans
are going to win the game.

1074
00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:28,360
Everybody.
I mean I get it.

1075
00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:30,000
I mean, I'm I'm just go.
I'm just going.

1076
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:31,520
With this.
Go with history.

1077
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:34,000
I'm just last time the Steelers
want to play off well.

1078
00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:35,920
I'm just going with this.
I I know.

1079
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,960
That the look, the Texans are
the number one defense in the

1080
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,960
league and I've watched some of
their games and they're pretty

1081
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:46,680
damn good at defense.
And I also feel that the

1082
00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:50,200
Steelers are not very good at
defense, at least late in games.

1083
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:55,600
So, you know, I just feel like
the defense advantage is with is

1084
00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:59,160
with the Texans.
And I sort of feel like, you

1085
00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:03,280
know, the the Steelers offense
is very choppy, whereas the

1086
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:07,160
Texans offense isn't anything
special, but it's probably more

1087
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:09,840
consistent.
So I'm going to I'm going to go

1088
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:13,480
Texans, but you know, hopefully
I'll be wrong and we'll be

1089
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:15,520
talking about a second round
playoff game.

1090
00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:17,800
That would be nice.
That would be nice.

1091
00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:21,760
All right, Grant Robini with the
Texans, Anthony says I'll be the

1092
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,040
Homer.
JPJ welcomes Collins to Akrusher

1093
00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:26,160
and continues to prove he's ACB
one.

1094
00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:29,800
Watt finally has his playoff
moment and DK has a revenge

1095
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:35,200
game. 2422 good guys.
Mike Lawrence, Steelers by 9,

1096
00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:38,520
Boz kicks 3.
They're going to be a lot of

1097
00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:41,480
field goals, Betten continues.
His hot streak and our.

1098
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:45,640
H Hydra Herbig Highsmith, our
our Hydra Herbig Highsmith and

1099
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,240
Hayward Lockdown Marks and
Stroud.

1100
00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:52,600
I mean, look, those aren't
unreasonable expectations.

1101
00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:54,720
They really aren't, and they
could certainly happen.

1102
00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:59,760
I, you know, I don't, I don't
disagree with that at all, Pat

1103
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:02,080
says.
I love this, Pat, and good luck

1104
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:03,880
to you.
I'm paying for my Buffalo

1105
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:06,240
Jacksonville trip betting with
you guys.

1106
00:54:06,240 --> 00:54:11,640
Oh, boy, absolutely.
I hope you have some savings.

1107
00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:16,320
Absolutely.
Listen, man, I just want to

1108
00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:20,080
remind you guys that next Monday
night after the game, we will

1109
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:22,880
have postgame reaction.
Actually, we're going to have a

1110
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,400
pregame show.
Well, you know, the counselor

1111
00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:26,600
said we should do.
We should.

1112
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:31,000
Come down to the stadium with
him before he goes in and do it

1113
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,240
down there with him.
Do the pregame show.

1114
00:54:33,240 --> 00:54:35,400
That's what he was, that was.
What he, what he was.

1115
00:54:35,400 --> 00:54:38,200
Suggesting OK, I don't know if
we should announce that here

1116
00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:39,160
now.
Yeah, we'll have a.

1117
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:41,240
Discussion about that?
Discuss.

1118
00:54:41,240 --> 00:54:44,240
Well, yeah, that, that, that
that creates a lot of work for

1119
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:45,800
me.
There's a There's a lot and a

1120
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:47,440
lot of work for me.
Too.

1121
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,360
Yeah.
Well, yeah, yes, getting in

1122
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:51,680
your.
Car and finding a parking spot.

1123
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:54,520
Finding a parking spot on Monday
is going to be difficult.

1124
00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:56,560
And when you're when you're the
talent.

1125
00:54:56,640 --> 00:55:00,520
That everybody requires.
I mean, I'd have to probably

1126
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,240
have to prepare for an on site
game.

1127
00:55:02,240 --> 00:55:03,960
He's got a big head now because
of that.

1128
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:05,680
He's got a big.
Head because of that reel.

1129
00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:06,360
I get it.
No.

1130
00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:09,400
You're welcome, Schwaber.
I picked that reel on purpose.

1131
00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:10,800
I know.
You got to go where?

1132
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:11,680
The town.
Yeah.

1133
00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:13,840
That's exactly right, and that's
completely false.

1134
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:15,920
It was totally random.
Anyway, do you want?

1135
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:17,920
Do you want to know what I found
by digging?

1136
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:19,720
Into the yes, what did?
What did you find?

1137
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:22,120
Are you interested?
I am practical.

1138
00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:24,360
Director.
Here's what I found.

1139
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:29,120
You're right, the the offensive
offenses are almost evenly

1140
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,640
matched.
Houston had 364 completions on

1141
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:36,360
year.
The Steelers had 365 completions

1142
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:40,400
on their past yards.
Houston had slightly more, a

1143
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:47,000
couple hundred, 3900 to 3600.
And the thing that really stands

1144
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:51,480
out is rush yards.
They both had the the the first

1145
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:54,000
and second lowest of all the
playoff teams that are left.

1146
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:58,360
They had the lowest rush yards
of any team, Steelers the lowest

1147
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:03,600
at 1700 yards and Houston with
18118 hundred yards.

1148
00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:07,240
So they're not going to run the
ball very much is what what what

1149
00:56:07,240 --> 00:56:08,840
they're saying.
Who is the starting running back

1150
00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:09,920
for Houston?
It's Woody.

1151
00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:12,880
Marks, but he's been.
Injured, You know, they had

1152
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,360
Chubb in there.
They're running that that other

1153
00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:18,280
guy now, I can't even remember
his name, but he's their third

1154
00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:20,760
back because they think Woody
Marks is their guy.

1155
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:23,040
They really don't have anybody.
They really don't.

1156
00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:24,720
They don't.
They didn't have 1000 yard.

1157
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:29,680
Rusher, but they had like 3 guys
rushed for like 507 hundred 600.

1158
00:56:29,720 --> 00:56:32,920
You know, so all three guys are
the same guy so you're not going

1159
00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:36,120
to really do anything there.
Nobody really fumbles the ball

1160
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:41,920
and rush touchdown Steelers out,
rush the Steelers out rush

1161
00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:45,440
Houston in touchdown 16 to 9.
Here's the thing that's really

1162
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:48,960
interesting on defense.
On defense, the Steelers

1163
00:56:49,240 --> 00:56:53,200
actually have more sacks than
Houston. 48 sacks for the

1164
00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:56,960
Steelers, 47 sacks for Houston.
Now, most of those come from

1165
00:56:56,960 --> 00:57:00,400
their 2 ends, Anderson and I
forget that other guy's name,

1166
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:04,160
but most of them come from,
from, from those two guys and

1167
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:06,400
they're beasts.
They're, they can't be stopped,

1168
00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:08,520
right?
Well, Anderson, and is that?

1169
00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:10,600
Team has Danielle Hunter.
Yeah, Hunter.

1170
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:12,160
That's the other guy's name.
That's correct.

1171
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:15,840
So those guys are going to be a
problem, 100% that's going to be

1172
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,320
a problem.
The thing that in the past

1173
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:21,720
yards, Houston's one of the
best, only 3400 past yards given

1174
00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:24,720
up.
The Steelers gave up 1000 more

1175
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:28,720
4400, so the pass game could be
someplace where the Steelers can

1176
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:31,360
be exploited.
They got Stingley, who's who's

1177
00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:32,200
like, shut?
Down.

1178
00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:35,080
And The thing is, yeah,
Stingley's definitely going to

1179
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:36,680
be.
On DK, he's going to be shut

1180
00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:38,520
down.
Don't expect DK to have a big

1181
00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:40,280
game.
If he does, we probably win.

1182
00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:43,680
They love to kick field goals.
They kick the most amount of

1183
00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:48,000
field goals in the league, 48 on
52 attempts.

1184
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:52,000
And the the Steelers only
attempted 27 field or the 32

1185
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:55,480
field goals on 27.
So they lean into the fact that

1186
00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:59,160
they want to kick field goals,
which is bizarro, but they do

1187
00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:02,760
and they've kicked they kicked
the most amount of 40 yard field

1188
00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:09,200
goals. 18th of their field goals
were 40 yards and 39 of them or

1189
00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:12,720
were, you know, up to 40 yards.
So most of them are between zero

1190
00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:15,360
and they've not and they didn't
attempt the 60 yard.

1191
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:19,920
So they, they this got Fairbairn
only kick up the 50 and the 50

1192
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:24,080
yarder, he kicked 9 out of 13.
So they do kick field goals and

1193
00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:26,120
they love it.
They say, yeah, we only kick

1194
00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:29,520
field goals if it's fourth and
whatever 1 yard, they're going

1195
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:31,280
to kick the field goal.
They're not going to go for it.

1196
00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:32,480
They're going to take the
points.

1197
00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:35,360
So that's, that's could be good
or that could be bad.

1198
00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:39,960
Now here's the thing that that
really got my attention the the

1199
00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:43,720
amount of scrimmage plays that
the Houston defense saw was the

1200
00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:47,800
4th lowest in the league.
They only saw a thousand 1000

1201
00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:51,240
scrimmage plays while the
Steelers defense was the second

1202
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:55,880
highest with all 1111150A
scrimmage place.

1203
00:58:56,120 --> 00:59:00,640
So they've had to endure so much
more on the defensive side the

1204
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:03,360
Steelers have and yet they're
pretty similar now.

1205
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:06,160
Now Houston has a definite
advantage when it comes to

1206
00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:09,880
completion percentage, 59% the
60 5%.

1207
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:12,600
So here's what here's what it
comes down to.

1208
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:16,120
The way I see it, if you can
keep Houston's defense on the

1209
00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:18,000
field, I think they can be
broken.

1210
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:22,840
And if you can score touchdowns
instead of field goals, that's

1211
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:24,480
the way the Steelers are going
to win this game.

1212
00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:28,560
If they if they get into a field
goal battle or if they even even

1213
00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:32,880
even if, if, if Houston controls
the ball and and has time of

1214
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:36,360
possession, you know, way above
the Steelers, the Steelers are

1215
00:59:36,360 --> 00:59:38,040
going to be screwed.
They're going to probably

1216
00:59:38,040 --> 00:59:42,400
actually lose pretty big, big if
if Houston gets into the end

1217
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:45,440
zone, but if they kick field
goals, Steelers could stay in it

1218
00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:49,800
and maybe slug out a lucky win.
It's going to be it's going to

1219
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:52,240
be a very interesting game
because these two games,

1220
00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:55,720
according to the statistics, the
way it looks, they're pretty

1221
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:59,360
evenly matched, but they're both
there.

1222
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:02,440
There are ways where either the
Steelers or Houston could win

1223
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:05,920
and I think the Steelers win by
time of possession, keeping

1224
01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:08,920
Houston's defense on the field.
I think that will that will make

1225
01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:11,040
their.
Ends tired and they won't be

1226
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:12,600
able to get the Rogers.
OK.

1227
01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:18,120
So all of that basically?
Is a roundabout way of saying

1228
01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:22,400
they need to control time of
possession, yes, and score

1229
01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:23,360
touchdowns.
That's it.

1230
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:25,120
That's really what it comes down
to yeah.

1231
01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:27,160
And so a big.
Part of it will be.

1232
01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:33,080
If the Steelers lose, we're
going to say they didn't run the

1233
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:35,640
ball enough, Yeah, Or they
didn't get enough.

1234
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:37,200
They didn't.
Get they didn't make enough

1235
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:40,080
third down plays, right?
You know, like third and six.

1236
01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:43,840
They they were like 2 for 12 on
3rd down, right.

1237
01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:45,880
We're going to be like, why are
they throwing bombs?

1238
01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:49,120
On 4th and one and even if the
defense, even if the.

1239
01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,960
Defense holds Houston the field
goals.

1240
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:53,920
They don't care.
They'll play the field goal game

1241
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:56,800
all all, all game long.
Although that's I, I think

1242
01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:59,680
that's more of a.
Positive sign for the Steelers

1243
01:00:59,680 --> 01:01:03,720
because it can be the Steelers
benefit when and teams don't put

1244
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:06,480
them away yeah Steelers are
pretty good at hanging around

1245
01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:09,120
especially at a home game right
right so I, I.

1246
01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:12,000
Think that there's less.
Of a chance that Houston will

1247
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:16,760
blow them out so I think that's
good for the Steelers, yeah,

1248
01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:20,560
Anthony says his personal 3.
Keys to victory.

1249
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:24,800
Establish the run.
Don't allow Houston's DBS to sit

1250
01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:27,760
back.
Get off the field on 3rd down on

1251
01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:31,360
defense and contain Dalton
Schultz.

1252
01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:33,600
Yeah, Dalton Schultz are their
second best.

1253
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:35,360
Receiver.
Yeah, behind Nico.

1254
01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:36,680
Well, and that's been a
weakness.

1255
01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:39,240
Yeah, that's.
Been a weakness for that defense

1256
01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:41,360
in the He's a really good
receiver.

1257
01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:43,640
Lately, we haven't.
Seen a lot of tight ends them.

1258
01:01:43,640 --> 01:01:46,880
Work a lot of tight ends, except
they get, you know, likely at

1259
01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:49,920
Baltimore, but they put Peyton
Wilson on the on.

1260
01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:52,720
The back that you that he's been
really good at containing that

1261
01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:55,840
tight end so well, maybe he'll
be on the field a little bit

1262
01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:57,000
more.
It'll be interesting.

1263
01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:58,520
It'll be a very interesting
game.

1264
01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:00,840
It's a chess match.
Alright guys.

1265
01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:04,040
Listen, I, I.
I wanna, I wanna let everybody

fun doing this.
So we thank you for being here.

1276
01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:41,200
Generally, this guy below me,
Hockey Jesus, he is on the

1277
01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:45,720
podcast after every single
Penguins game serving up a

1278
01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:50,920
sermon about what he has seen
with the Pens lately.

1279
01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:54,800
Yesterday was a marathon for him
because he had to do a Hockey

1280
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:57,800
Jesus on the podcast and on
YouTube Live.

1281
01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:00,400
So if you're a big Pens fan, you
can get on after the game and

1282
01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:02,200
comment there and have a little
fun with him.

1283
01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:06,240
Do you want to do a Hockey Jesus
tonight or do you want to you

1284
01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:10,320
you want to just prep what's
coming up this week game wise

1285
01:03:11,360 --> 01:03:14,400
and then we can move on to what
we're watching and let everybody

1286
01:03:14,400 --> 01:03:17,360
get back to their normal lives.
Well, last week we were talking

1287
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,400
about Chinikov, right?
And yeah, and Mark was pretty

1288
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:22,640
like, hey, he could be, he could
be a flyer.

1289
01:03:22,640 --> 01:03:25,400
He could be a guy that, you
know, he's going to be a guy who

1290
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:28,560
can score your goals.
And I think Mark was more right

1291
01:03:28,560 --> 01:03:30,840
than I was.
I think, you know, he's got

1292
01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:33,600
some, I think he's got some
hockey IQ over there.

1293
01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:36,760
He's been watching some hockey.
And yeah, I think you're right.

1294
01:03:36,800 --> 01:03:39,240
And, and we were talking about,
you know, him playing on the

1295
01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:41,520
second line.
He's fit in really well on the

1296
01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:45,360
third line right now with Kindle
and sometimes they play with

1297
01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:48,560
Mcgroarty, sometimes they're
playing with Covenant.

1298
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:51,960
So that would that's, that's a
good fine for the for the

1299
01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:55,760
Penguins to be able to bring
people in and out of that third

1300
01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:58,600
line to make it a little bit,
you know, faster, a little bit

1301
01:03:58,600 --> 01:04:01,280
better.
Kindle's the Kindle is the is

1302
01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:04,800
the straw that stirs that drink
because he's just got such sweet

1303
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:07,240
passes.
He sees Anthony, he sees the ice

1304
01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:08,600
really well.
And.

1305
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:11,360
I think that's the that's the
one thing I want to highlight.

1306
01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:14,800
Also, if you didn't see the game
on Sunday, they came down, they

1307
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:18,800
came back from a four one
deficit to win that game 5/4 in

1308
01:04:18,800 --> 01:04:21,800
overtime.
It was, it was a remarkable way

1309
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:25,160
they came back to because they
played like shit for about 20

1310
01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:30,040
minutes between the 2nd and the
3rd periods and I'm sorry,

1311
01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:31,880
between the 1st and the second
period.

1312
01:04:32,160 --> 01:04:34,920
And it did just look like they
were, they were just going to

1313
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:38,680
absolutely get pummeled and they
just chipped at it, chipped at

1314
01:04:38,680 --> 01:04:39,960
it.
They get, they got the, you

1315
01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:41,920
know, pull the goalie goal to
tie it up.

1316
01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:46,760
And you know, Sid, Sid got a
really sweet pass from Carlson

1317
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:50,280
and buried it in overtime.
He, I didn't know this, but I

1318
01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:53,200
should have known this.
He has 50 points in overtime.

1319
01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:55,680
That's the most in the NHL
history.

1320
01:04:56,120 --> 01:04:56,680
Really.
Yeah.

1321
01:04:56,680 --> 01:04:59,360
Surprising.
But I thought that was an

1322
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:03,200
interesting stat that I I, I was
made aware of after the game.

1323
01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:07,200
This week, the Pens play at home
two games.

1324
01:05:07,280 --> 01:05:11,400
Thursday they got they play the
the Devils and Saturday they

1325
01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:16,400
play Calgary.
And then Sunday they move over

1326
01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:19,920
and play Boston in a 5:00 game,
which is weird.

1327
01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:22,720
Calgary.
Yeah, that's how they say it in

1328
01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:26,280
Canada.
Canada.

1329
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:27,680
Calgary.
Calgary.

1330
01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:29,680
Yeah, Calgary.
Calgary, yeah.

1331
01:05:29,800 --> 01:05:31,880
Here's Pat Off track, HJ.
Thoughts on the?

1332
01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:34,000
Olympics.
Well, I don't really want to go

1333
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,240
there.
Well, we'll just, we'll just say

1334
01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:38,920
my.
Olympics thoughts are it's going

1335
01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:41,880
to be cold most of the time
Yeah, I'm sure is the.

1336
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:45,440
Arena going to be ready.
We'll know next.

1337
01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:47,200
Week going.
How funny would that be?

1338
01:05:47,520 --> 01:05:49,000
No, actually.
I don't think they're going to

1339
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:51,800
know until.
The week before the Olympics,

1340
01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:54,040
when they start the 7th or
something like that.

1341
01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:55,720
Yeah.
February 7th.

1342
01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:56,760
I don't know.
I don't, I don't know.

1343
01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:59,040
When they start, but they're.
They're they're not going to

1344
01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:02,360
know.
And the rink is 3 feet short.

1345
01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:05,880
That's hockey.
Jesus, right down here.

1346
01:06:05,880 --> 01:06:08,920
He preaches on the podcast and
on YouTube live at the sports

1347
01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:13,200
sports podcast after every
single Penguins game and then he

1348
01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:15,840
actually carries that into the
NHL playoffs.

1349
01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,400
Build the following there.
Make sure you follow him and

1350
01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:21,200
subscribe on Spotify as well.
You can listen to it in the car.

1351
01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:26,400
What are we watching?
This is the part of the show

1352
01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:28,960
where we like to give back to
you, Grant Schwabini.

1353
01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:32,400
Take it away.
Yes, you have been.

1354
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:37,600
Faithful to us, loyal to us, and
we must reward you for your

1355
01:06:37,600 --> 01:06:44,320
kindness and your caring.
And the way we do that is, we

1356
01:06:44,320 --> 01:06:47,240
know that sometimes sports
aren't on, right?

1357
01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,920
It's no NBA team in Pittsburgh,
right?

1358
01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:56,000
So you got to watch something
else during those times and you

1359
01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:58,560
got a lot of choices.
You got Netflix, you got Hulu,

1360
01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:03,520
you got Peacock, you got
Paramount Plus, you got AMC,

1361
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:09,640
you've got everything Prime.
I could go on for days, but I

1362
01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:15,560
won't because what I do instead
is I have organized a Mafia of

1363
01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:21,120
three and the three of us, we
watch shows and we do it not for

1364
01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:23,920
us, not for our loved ones.
We do it for you, for you, for

1365
01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:26,760
you.
We will give you a thumbs up and

1366
01:07:26,760 --> 01:07:31,480
if we do, that means watch it,
it's a lock, it's good and

1367
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:34,800
everybody's going to praise you.
If we give you 2 thumbs down,

1368
01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:40,160
that means forget it.
Don't even consider it or you

1369
01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:45,120
will be lambasted with
disrespect from those who care

1370
01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:48,400
about you.
Or you could get a one thumb up,

1371
01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:50,480
one thumb down.
And that kind of means like,

1372
01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:53,840
hey, it's up to you.
You know, you make the call.

1373
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:56,880
You know, we're not, we're not
going out there putting

1374
01:07:56,880 --> 01:07:59,960
ourselves on the line here.
It's your, it's your deal.

1375
01:08:01,360 --> 01:08:04,400
And that's what what we're
watching is all about.

1376
01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:06,920
Tickets from here and your
client.

1377
01:08:07,480 --> 01:08:09,320
All righty.
Let's let's.

1378
01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:14,360
Go here, let's do well.
Do me first your TD.

1379
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:19,479
Your TD is watching something
called the The Last Frontier.

1380
01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:24,080
Is this on Apple TV?
Is this not a documentary?

1381
01:08:24,279 --> 01:08:26,000
It is not a documentary.
That's exciting.

1382
01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:26,960
Tell me.
Movie.

1383
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:28,240
Tell me.
About it, yeah.

1384
01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:30,359
It stars Johnny Knoxville, who I
love.

1385
01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:34,760
And basically Johnny Knoxville
from Jack.

1386
01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:36,319
Yeah, from.
Jack, yeah, he can do.

1387
01:08:36,319 --> 01:08:38,279
Some serious stuff.
He does some great acting.

1388
01:08:38,279 --> 01:08:39,640
Yeah.
How you gonna break?

1389
01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:41,680
Out that.
Caramel apple there.

1390
01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:43,240
Yeah.
I just want everybody to know,

1391
01:08:43,279 --> 01:08:45,000
Well, you know what?
I'll, I'll show.

1392
01:08:45,479 --> 01:08:47,479
I'll, I'll, I'll say.
I'll do it after that.

1393
01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:48,600
Yeah.
All right.

1394
01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:51,479
So the Last Frontier, Johnny,
not Johnny Knoxville.

1395
01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:53,520
This guy, I can't remember his
name.

1396
01:08:54,200 --> 01:09:00,680
Basically a government plane
carrying government, you know,

1397
01:09:00,680 --> 01:09:04,520
felon, felons and really bad
prisoners.

1398
01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:08,680
Crashes in Alaska.
Yeah, it crashes in Alaska.

1399
01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:12,200
And he's AUS Marshall, based in
Fairbanks.

1400
01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:15,680
There's a lot of back story with
him, but he's tasked with

1401
01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:18,920
hunting down these convicts one
at a time.

1402
01:09:18,920 --> 01:09:20,319
But there's a little bit of A
twist.

1403
01:09:20,680 --> 01:09:26,080
There was a very, very high
level CIA connection on this.

1404
01:09:26,080 --> 01:09:29,720
Plane.
When it went down and did he

1405
01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:31,800
survive or did he not?
Survive so now.

1406
01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:36,760
You got the CIA involved in
Alaska and what's what's

1407
01:09:36,760 --> 01:09:39,000
interesting to me here's the
thing that that I'm going to

1408
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:41,920
give it 2 thumbs up.
Get up until the last two

1409
01:09:41,920 --> 01:09:44,520
episodes, yeah or no, I don't
want to say that.

1410
01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:46,960
Is it one season?
It is so far up until.

1411
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:50,439
The last.
Three episodes, I was on the

1412
01:09:50,439 --> 01:09:52,319
fence.
There were times where it was

1413
01:09:52,319 --> 01:09:54,920
really good and compelling, and
there were times where it was

1414
01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:57,720
kind of like we've seen this
movie before, right?

1415
01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:02,760
But once you get.
To a certain point, there is a

1416
01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:08,600
big twist that you say to
yourself, why didn't I see this

1417
01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:10,240
coming?
It's not a complete surprise,

1418
01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:12,160
OK?
It's not a complete surprise.

1419
01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,240
They they got it past you,
though.

1420
01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:15,240
They got.
It past the goalie.

1421
01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:17,000
They got it past the goalie,
yeah.

1422
01:10:17,120 --> 01:10:20,320
And.
Then the the next three episodes

1423
01:10:20,320 --> 01:10:25,600
or the last few episodes are all
about now it shifts gears and it

1424
01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:29,600
and it it actually gets better,
which is interesting.

1425
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:33,720
So the last frontier, I would
say I I definitely give a A2

1426
01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:35,920
thumbs up.
Apple TV.

1427
01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:38,560

beginning, so we're just talking

1446
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:27,640
The NFL was using a nanoparticle
bladder ball to fix Vegas.

1447
01:11:28,280 --> 01:11:30,280
Wow.
I love, we love a good

1453
01:11:40,440 --> 01:11:43,720
On YouTube met Johnny Knoxville
and Tara Reid in a Fort

1454
01:11:43,720 --> 01:11:46,200
Lauderdale Dale bar.
Of course he did.

1455
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:49,760
He's met everybody dropping
names like Jim Kelly in Super

1456
01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:50,640
Bowls.
That sounds awesome.

1457
01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:54,360

Track with them yeah, right
they're.

1459
01:11:57,680 --> 01:12:01,320
Probably like scary attention
from the Ground Zero security.

1460
01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:03,640
Like that guy was that.
Bald guy actually talking to

1461
01:12:03,640 --> 01:12:07,280
him.
Yeah.

1462
01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:07,680
All right.
The.

1463
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:10,720
Grand Schwab Beanie watched a
movie.

1464
01:12:11,120 --> 01:12:15,200
This is go for a Grand Schwab
house maid.

1465
01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:21,920
Starring Amanda Seyfried and
Sydney Sweeney and I have to

1466
01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:25,920
tell you guys, this movie was
great It was really good.

1467
01:12:26,360 --> 01:12:30,280
It was really good.
It was it was very suspenseful.

1468
01:12:30,840 --> 01:12:35,880
Basically got a scenario.
Amanda Seyfried is married to

1469
01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:39,720
this guy and they're super
wealthy.

1470
01:12:40,440 --> 01:12:45,480
And, you know, there's a
question, you know, is Amanda

1471
01:12:45,480 --> 01:12:52,200
Seyfried just a total crazy nut
or is there something else going

1472
01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:56,280
on?
Is the, you know, is somebody

1473
01:12:56,280 --> 01:13:00,400
else within, you know, all the
characters in the show?

1474
01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:08,800
Is somebody else quite sinister?
And, you know, she brings Sidney

1475
01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:15,640
Sweeney in to take this job, and
the job turns out to be quite

1476
01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:19,680
crazy.
And in a way, she can't get out

1477
01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:23,640
of it because she is on parole
and needs to maintain a job.

1478
01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:26,920
And I'll tell you what, it was
really good.

1479
01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:29,760
I mean, you know, it kind of, it
kind of reminded me a little bit

1480
01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:31,920
of, like, Fatal Attraction.
Oh, OK.

1481
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:32,920
Yeah.
Yeah, it was.

1482
01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:34,120
But between women?
It was good.

1483
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:36,960
It was good.
Well, and there was, you know,

1484
01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:39,040
there was a guy in it.
I to be honest, I don't know

1485
01:13:39,040 --> 01:13:44,160
what his name was, but I kind of
get a feeling like the guy who

1486
01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:47,680
starred in this movie is going
to become a superstar.

1487
01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:51,240
Like he reminded me a lot of
like Bradley Cooper.

1488
01:13:51,240 --> 01:13:53,320
Well, he he he's in a movie with
Amanda.

1489
01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:57,120
Seyfried and City, City Sweeney,
I'm come on.

1490
01:13:57,160 --> 01:13:59,360
So he's kind of making it.
Right now, yeah, I'll say.

1491
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:02,000
Before our eyes pat off track.
Amanda Seyfried.

1492
01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:04,360
And Sydney?
Sweeney I'd pay them to.

1493
01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:06,360
I'd pay to watch them fold
clothing.

1494
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:09,760
Of course you would.
You get a little more than that.

1495
01:14:09,880 --> 01:14:11,960
Of course you would.
All right.

1496
01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:14,200
HJ here.
This is like, this is the bane

1497
01:14:14,200 --> 01:14:16,680
of my existence here.
When he does stuff that's OK,

1498
01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:18,800
you don't listen to me anyway,
that's all right.

1499
01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:21,960
He is.
Watching caught it on Disney

1500
01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:22,520
Plus.
Uh huh.

1501
01:14:23,320 --> 01:14:27,680
Taylor Swift, the end of an era.
Now this is this was been coming

1502
01:14:27,680 --> 01:14:30,080
for a long time.
You guys had to know that I was

1503
01:14:30,080 --> 01:14:31,560
going to watch this.
Sure, of course.

1504
01:14:32,440 --> 01:14:35,720
No, no surprise.
Right on Disney Plus. 6

1505
01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,040
episodes.
So I waited because I wanted to

1506
01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:41,040
watch it with my daughter.
She was home for, you know, the

1507
01:14:41,040 --> 01:14:44,080
holidays.
So we watched the 1st 4 episodes

1508
01:14:44,080 --> 01:14:47,400
together and then we didn't get
a chance to watch the final 2.

1509
01:14:47,400 --> 01:14:52,200
So I had to watch the final two
to give this my analysis of end

1510
01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:56,240
of an era and I have to say this
was absolutely incredible.

1511
01:14:56,440 --> 01:14:59,080
I've been to 3 Taylor Swift
concerts.

1512
01:14:59,080 --> 01:15:00,800
OK personal.
You're swifty.

1513
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:03,280
So I love her music.
I've.

1514
01:15:03,280 --> 01:15:05,360
Adopted her from the very
beginning.

1515
01:15:05,480 --> 01:15:07,880
I think her songwriting is
fantastic.

1516
01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:12,280
But the thing that I learned
about this was she's become such

1517
01:15:12,440 --> 01:15:15,640
a mega superstar.
You forget that she's just a

1518
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:18,160
woman.
She's just a girl really, when

1519
01:15:18,160 --> 01:15:19,920
it comes down to it.
And.

1520
01:15:20,160 --> 01:15:22,240
The the.
Reality is, many people are

1521
01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:24,000
people.
I'm just a.

1522
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:25,880
Girl, I'm just a.
Girl, right?

1523
01:15:26,320 --> 01:15:29,640
Very good.
Chris but but her talent her her

1524
01:15:29,640 --> 01:15:33,840
talent is just launched her in
the superstar and whether

1525
01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:37,040
whether you like her music or
not, there are billions of

1526
01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:40,800
people who do and have paid
billions of dollars to see her

1527
01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:43,600
in this concert.
The concert lasted over 600

1528
01:15:43,600 --> 01:15:46,400
days.
I mean to to put on a three plus

1529
01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:51,320
hour concert first, you know,
over 600 days by itself is a

1530
01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:53,320
pretty big feat.
The fact that she put it all

1531
01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:56,720
together, she had her whole
family involved with it.

1532
01:15:57,000 --> 01:15:59,160
The behind the scenes were
incredible.

1533
01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:02,640
I could, I was very surprised
that she gave the access that

1534
01:16:02,640 --> 01:16:05,520
she did to the people doing the
filming.

1535
01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:09,760
And you know, you got to see a
little bit of Travis Kelce in

1536
01:16:09,760 --> 01:16:13,640
there for you football fans who
are not not the Taylor Swift

1537
01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:16,320
fans.
So you did get to see their

1538
01:16:16,320 --> 01:16:19,760
relationship and, and how much
they really actually do mean to

1539
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:21,560
each other.
I've been pretty, I've been

1540
01:16:21,560 --> 01:16:24,960
pretty harsh about their
relationship because of end of

1541
01:16:24,960 --> 01:16:26,800
an era.
I'm changing my tune.

1542
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:31,440
I think at least now that Travis
is still employed, I still think

1543
01:16:31,440 --> 01:16:33,200
they have a chance.
It's going the distance.

1544
01:16:33,200 --> 01:16:35,480
I think I think they have a
chance, but they.

1545
01:16:35,600 --> 01:16:37,680
Are engaged, they are engaged,
they get engaged in that.

1546
01:16:37,680 --> 01:16:40,520
Garden the one, the one thing
that that was.

1547
01:16:40,640 --> 01:16:43,240
Absolutely amazing to me.
Now she she would do these

1548
01:16:43,240 --> 01:16:45,480
mashups where she would throw
songs together.

1549
01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:48,320
She just would pick them out of
the air and just put them

1550
01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:51,200
together.
And on the last, on the last leg

1551
01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:54,840
of the tour, you guys will not
know this, but she threw

1552
01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:58,480
together Long live New Year's
Day in the manuscript into just

1553
01:16:58,480 --> 01:17:02,360
this unbelievable medley at the
end of her show.

1554
01:17:02,600 --> 01:17:05,000
That was just absolutely
phenomenal.

1555
01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:06,800
I can't, I don't even know how
she does it.

1556
01:17:06,960 --> 01:17:11,600
Like she, she, she worked with,
she worked with Sabrina

1557
01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:14,800
Carpenter.
And now everybody loves Sabrina

1558
01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:17,440
Carpenter, right?
So she's not only that, but she

1559
01:17:17,440 --> 01:17:20,080
brings.
She brings other people along so

1560
01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:24,160
I can't I, I can't give more
than two thumbs up, but

1561
01:17:24,160 --> 01:17:26,600
absolutely 2 thumbs up.
You the watch this.

1562
01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:29,440
If you don't like Taylor Swift,
you will still learn something

1563
01:17:29,440 --> 01:17:33,840
about her and her business and
how she created the The Heiress

1564
01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:38,440
tour and at the end, how just
that they became a family

1565
01:17:38,440 --> 01:17:40,200
together.
You know, when you go on tour

1566
01:17:40,200 --> 01:17:43,560
for 600 days together, you're
going to end up liking the

1567
01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:47,200
people you work with.
And everybody, everybody who who

1568
01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:50,720
worked for her said that she was
the best boss that they ever

1569
01:17:50,720 --> 01:17:52,000
had.
Yeah, that's what Anthony's

1570
01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:53,480
saying here.
To her credit, she annoyed.

1571
01:17:53,480 --> 01:17:55,560
Me in the NFL.
But what she does for her crew

1572
01:17:55,560 --> 01:17:57,800
regarding bonuses and work
environment, I respect it.

1573
01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:02,320
The Red Album is a masterpiece.
Oh well, here's one for you,

1574
01:18:02,320 --> 01:18:05,560
Anthony.
After the After the Red album,

1575
01:18:05,560 --> 01:18:09,760
after Taylor Swift's concert in
Pittsburgh, I actually got to

1576
01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:14,240
meet Taylor Swift backstage with
my daughter, with her other two

1577
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:17,880
friends, and it was an
absolutely amazing experience.

1578
01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:21,320
It was like hitting the lottery.
Her mom would go through the the

1579
01:18:21,440 --> 01:18:25,640
the concert and pick out people.
She Yeah, we had a big.

1580
01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:29,440
Cat of her.
Of her, her cat Meredith at the

1581
01:18:29,440 --> 01:18:34,560
time, now she has 3 or 4 cats.
She's a cat lady and just just

1582
01:18:34,560 --> 01:18:37,000
so to meet her was was
incredible.

1583
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:39,800
The one thing I, I did notice
with Taylor Swift when I did

1584
01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:44,920
meet her, her eyes just
absolutely sparkled to to a

1585
01:18:44,920 --> 01:18:47,160
level where you just couldn't
even understand.

1586
01:18:48,440 --> 01:18:50,200
We're holding it together, the
whole thing.

1587
01:18:50,920 --> 01:18:53,840
Come on, man, I think Taylor.
Swift's eyes sparkled.

1588
01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:55,880
Like, I think we've gone too
far.

1589
01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:58,440
Like diamonds.
Well, he's like diamonds.

1590
01:18:59,440 --> 01:19:01,160
First of all, remember we've got
marital.

1591
01:19:01,160 --> 01:19:04,120
Issues here going.
On and the first pretty girl you

1592
01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:05,320
can memory.
Her eyes sparkle.

1593
01:19:05,320 --> 01:19:06,760
No, I'm I'm not.
It's over.

1594
01:19:06,760 --> 01:19:08,040
I can.
I can be honest.

1595
01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:10,760
With you, I'm not attracted to
Taylor Swift in any way.

1596
01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:12,680
She's not very attracted.
I I'm just not I'm.

1597
01:19:13,400 --> 01:19:15,880
Not attracted to her, no, but I
think what?

1598
01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:18,760
She's done, from a business
standpoint, what she's done with

1599
01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:22,200
her music, what she's done for
the people around her doing the

1600
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:24,240
music.
Just absolutely incredible.

1601
01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:27,360
Thank you, Taylor Swift, for
being who you are.

1602
01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:30,000
You know whose cruise?

That's, I don't think that was
going on, on the tail, no.

1610
01:19:46,800 --> 01:19:48,320
Definitely not.
