Live from the Raising Caine Studio.
Speaker 5: Jake Flynn, Alandre Tita all here with you. F We're
getting closer and closer to Thanksgiving. A couple of days left.
That would be two, that's.
Speaker 2: What a couple means. To a few that'd be three. Three.
We're on the same page. Roll five, several five? I
don't know, all right, I'll buy it. It feels like
it'd be four to seven. Yeah, the fives right there
in the right. How many how many of those you'll
gotten stuck?
Speaker 6: Several?
Speaker 2: Several? Seven?
Speaker 3: Five?
Speaker 2: They have?
Speaker 6: Like five?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Good? Any who's the smaller the thing? Though? The more
the bigger? Several is I feel like? Yeah?
Speaker 7: So it was like how many generators left? Several like
maybe thirty twenty generators? Five generators maybe? Yeah, five bah
I got back there.
Speaker 5: Oh we got seven back to seven fives and generators?
Speaker 2: Well, well le's yours? You got like sixty? Yeah? How
are we doing? People? How are we living? How good?
Speaker 3: An electric Monday night football?
Speaker 2: Last?
Speaker 3: How could you not be in a good mood?
Speaker 2: Hock you not love defense?
Speaker 5: That's your fault because it's every other game with the Panthers.
If you expected anything else, remember last game that threw
for four hundred yards.
Speaker 2: This time it had to be a stinker. That's just
the way it goes.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, it was a It was a big stinker,
but it was fun to watch. We had, uh you know,
the kids are off school this week, so you know
we have a movie time at night, and so we're
only two days away from Thanksgiving. So last night we
decided to kind of rip the band aid off as
a family and watch a Christmas movie.
Speaker 2: We watched Klaus.
Speaker 7: On Netflix, which is that one of my which good,
one of my favorite newish new ye kind of animated
Christmas movie, has got a lot of heart to it.
Speaker 2: So we watched that on the big screen. You know,
I got my little side TV.
Speaker 7: I pulled the side TV over and that had Monday
Night football on because you know it's.
Speaker 2: My job, right, got me?
Speaker 7: You got to talk at least thirty to forty five
seconds on that game today. So I watched it as
I was seeing the evolution of Santa claus On on
the clouds on the big screen. I got to see
Bryce Young throw some just gross interceptions. I got to say,
brock Party threw some just nasty interceptions as well. He did,
but none as gross as that first one in the
first drive. After the Panthers have a great interception on
brock Party bring it down to the red zone, they
get on the goal line on first down, and just
Bryce Young just throws it right to a guy in
the end zone on the other team, not on his team,
and the other thing.
Speaker 2: And he does that like pretty frequently.
Speaker 7: I feel like, just an inexplicable just a little pass,
just playing catch with the other team.
Speaker 2: It's not even like close.
Speaker 5: It wouldn't to make sure that they were still involved
in the game too, you know, well they were, they
were up.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I just want to make sure the other team anyway,
it was all out there. It was, it was out
there for It was about as bad as the Niners
have played.
Speaker 2: I feel like this year, but the Panthers played much worse?
Was it?
Speaker 6: Mac Jones?
Speaker 7: I didn't watch it was so Brock played really great
last week and his return back return, he was a
great last defense is pretty good. Defense is really good,
and that's why they got a winning record right now.
It certainly not young, although it did over four hundred
yards once, not last night, not last night. Yeah, but
Brock perty he did not play great last night. Obviously
they win, so he's a winning quarterback. But uh yeah,
looked really good on the return though. They're like, oh
he's back, we got our guy back. You thought mac
Jones was good. What's his name, mccove mccorky.
Speaker 5: I like McCovey, look mccorky and got enough swag to
be It's not like McCaughey situation. I got it, Yeah,
I got you. But no, I'm doing fantastic.
Speaker 2: You know, watch fantastic, fantastic.
Speaker 7: I'm excited to have kind of the Christmas movie back.
Like I tell you, I love watching a movie with
some good heart to it. Okay, the evolution of Santa Alright,
to get.
Speaker 6: Your favorite Christmas movie.
Speaker 2: We're not there yet.
Speaker 6: You don't know what it is.
Speaker 2: You're not there yet you're forty.
Speaker 6: I was about to say, you're forty and you don't
know what Christmas?
Speaker 7: I got a lot, I don't. I don't like to
pick just one when it comes to uh, probably vacation
Yeah and die Hard Yeah, me too, probably mm hmm.
Class is coming up the ranks. I gotta tell you,
class is coming up the ranks. I mean, I'm gonna
say chalk answers, probably elf, but like I gotta really
dive into this and think about it. But those are
my top three chalk answers, but classes because climbing up
the ranks. I mean I watched it and last night
and again I watched it. That's probably my fourth thimb
to watch. It got me in the field. That's exactly
how it is.
Speaker 6: My friend just watched it. I haven't seen it yet.
Speaker 7: I recommend, highly recommended. All right, so watch it tonight.
No Grinch on your list. I do like the Grunch.
Speaker 6: That's on my my top three, but the live.
Speaker 7: Action Arlow actually animated one too. I haven't seen the
animated One's good. The people that did Minions, I think, yeah,
the same same Adam Sandler using Minions winning Steve Carrell.
Adam Sadlers until Translvania, get your cartoons.
Speaker 3: What the heck, Steve Carell, Carell Corroll, whatever, it's not whatever.
Speaker 2: It's serious that you get Taylor come to this studio.
You get his name, right?
Speaker 3: I mean half the people growing up called me Tyler.
Guess what it does? Didn't care?
Speaker 5: You should, well you should disrespect for your parents spent
a lot of time naming you Taylor.
Speaker 3: They probably didn't. It's kind of a generic name.
Speaker 8: If it's mom and dad, it's just wasn't that creative,
pretty true name or something?
Speaker 3: It actually came from a TV show?
Speaker 2: Thinking about to say it actually came from the nurse.
Speaker 3: It actually, uh came from a TV show. I don't
know which one.
Speaker 2: Uh, Okay, well we're while we're on it. Mine came
from a John Wayne movie Big Jake has it? Yeah,
I know it does. Hell yeah, I don't actually remember
where mine came from. It's not important. It's not important.
Sister one, who to name me? Superman?
Speaker 6: Great name? I don't know why that got vetoed.
Speaker 5: I know, right, Superman Flynn Matthew Clayton or Superman. Superman
would have been much been so tight. Yeah super Man
or huh super middle name Man or Superman Flynn, Superman
Clayton Flynn.
Speaker 6: You still would have had Clayton?
Speaker 3: Would you have been Superman mad Flynn.
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's got a ring to it.
Clayton's a great middle name.
Speaker 7: That's a great bridge name, Like where Clayton come from
the first I think my first name is almost Clayton.
Speaker 6: I feel like you'd be a completely different person.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know that. You would be way.
Speaker 6: Worse if your name was Clayton. Clayton just feels like
you'd be a bad kid.
Speaker 2: It's pretty bad as is.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Na, Superman, right'd be way worse.
Speaker 8: Doesn't that put a lot of pressure on you? If
your name is Superman, you gotta have a cool job.
You can't just like yeah, right, I'm saying quarterback, it
would be awesome.
Speaker 7: I would have got that's at least gives you two rounds.
I would have gotten the fifth.
Speaker 3: Yes, for sure.
Speaker 8: But I'm saying, like, let's say that didn't happen. Everybody's like,
your name is Superman, Like, what have you done?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 6: That light is flickering and it's gonna give me a
see shut the one under this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I see it. I see it flickering off the
cane dog.
Speaker 6: I don't like it.
Speaker 2: Well, we need to fix it.
Speaker 3: The good news is it's probably about to go out.
Speaker 2: Where's a guy out? You think Paul is here at
seven to Timbo? Maybe on a random Tuesday.
Speaker 8: Maybe it's actually been flickering for about a week. I
just haven't said anything that's going on me.
Speaker 5: There's three people, four people I haven't been here, maybe
outside of us in this building right now. Maybe probably,
I would say the brain show brain, he's probably got
somebody in there.
Speaker 2: Richard, Okay, Yeah, there's four. How many ghosts live here?
Speaker 6: You think so many like permanent residents, not several?
Speaker 2: There's eight. I think eight.
Speaker 3: It's a good number for a four story building, right.
Speaker 2: How many different ones have been confirmed?
Speaker 6: At least two?
Speaker 2: At least two.
Speaker 6: Different ones, at least two different ones that I've heard
stories about.
Speaker 2: Go ahead. They have a gender to them.
Speaker 6: One's a guy, the other one was a girl.
Speaker 2: So yes, girl, husband, wife?
Speaker 6: You think brothers, sister, I don't know.
Speaker 7: Boyfriend and girlfriend for all eternity, for all eternity, forever
and ever. But death did do them part?
Speaker 2: It did not, really, though they're still together. Huh. That
was a good point. Yeah, I did become a ghost.
Speaker 3: You have to die, Yeah, that's probably step one, step.
Speaker 7: One, but not I don't feel like, well, you know,
I don't feel like everybody that does becomes a ghost.
Speaker 6: No, But you just have to have like unresolved issues.
Speaker 2: Really daddy issues.
Speaker 3: If you have a lot of problems, you're in luck.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Maybe you forgot to tell somebody something important you got.
Speaker 2: Maybe he had a d D and he got distracted
all the way right right.
Speaker 6: So you're good. So you just have to die first
then be a ghost.
Speaker 2: Want that? Mm hmm? So eight you think, I think
that's a firm number, right right?
Speaker 6: That feels like a lot.
Speaker 2: It does feel like a lot. It's a big building, though.
Speaker 1: Them.
Speaker 6: I'm going to miss them when we when we move.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they'll stay here, probably.
Speaker 3: One per floor, and then you have two sides to
the buildings.
Speaker 2: You don't think they stay in the basement.
Speaker 6: They do. There's at least one in the basement in
the bathroom. He's kind of weird, really.
Speaker 2: Creep yeah, a little bit, Daniel said. Clayton.
Speaker 5: Flynn drives a dump truck, wondering what could have been
if you had just started a hydration company.
Speaker 7: Oh man, and where would I be if I didn't
know that hydration company? Speaking up Drink My Drink myhead
dot com. Yeah you like perfect hdration.
Speaker 5: Oh, I don't like this, Mark, says Matthew, Clayton, Flynn
and Jacob, Troy, Hester, Troy and Clay on O TV.
Speaker 2: I don't like Troy and Clay.
Speaker 6: I don't like Troy and Clay.
Speaker 2: We don't look like Troy's and clays. You know it's
our middle names. That doesn't sound like a competitor of Murphy,
Sam and Jody. That sounds like friends. Yeah, true college colleague.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Murphy, they throw it to us for that, Troy
and it would be thirty second to your own Monday
Night Football.
Speaker 2: Brought to you by Murphy, Same and Jody.
Speaker 8: If Sam and Jody want to talk kind of correctly,
stuff a turkey and to do that, we bring on
Troy and Clay our sister show, Our.
Speaker 2: Sister sister show. I would never.
Speaker 5: No, Clayton, We're not hating on your name. We're hating
on Matt being a Clay, me being a Troy. I
think most our names too.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 7: I think you can look at people that are not
named correctly and be like, he doesn't look like Clayton Kershaw,
looks like a Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 2: But like you can look at somebody and be like,
m that is, he does not look like.
Speaker 5: Alandra, looks like an Alandra Taylor looks like a Taylor.
Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, Taylor could be named a lot of things. Yeah, Michael,
pretty Why I give you a Michael easy George, white guy?
Speaker 3: Pick a name.
Speaker 2: That's a great scene. Uh, show a hands here. Who's
in charge of Turkey this year? Anybody? Has anybody ever
been in charge of Turkey?
Speaker 6: Why would I ever?
Speaker 5: Yeah, after we've gone through this take, I'm sorry. Turkey's fine. Sorry,
I'm a new guy. You know what I'm saying. Whoo Turkey,
We you and I have gone through this. Turkey's first Thanksgiving? Okay,
every day is my first.
Speaker 2: I'd rather have ham, so we've don't care. I got it.
But there's still going to be a Turkey, and somebody's.
Speaker 7: Got to be in charge of somebody's got to be
buying ham if you wanted to be but.
Speaker 3: In charge of buying it. Nobody ever trusts me to
cook it.
Speaker 2: Super friendly Pilgrims.
Speaker 6: I'm doing any of the dishes on Thanksgiving, I just
show up the dishes. My family help with the dishes.
Speaker 8: My family's like Tyler, we want to have good food.
So let's let's you set this one out.
Speaker 2: You can't find it, you can learn how to do anything.
Speaker 8: You can yell and give us score updates on Thanksgiving
while everyone else is cooking.
Speaker 3: It's kind of my role.
Speaker 6: I play my role.
Speaker 2: Guys.
Speaker 7: I can't do the dishes after the meal. I gotta work.
But you're just watching the football game.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but like I got to break down Ravens bingles
a lot on a Baton Rouge radio show.
Speaker 7: I got my notebook out, I'm taking notes. Hmmm, all right,
Well I wasn't tired of the turkey once, so had
a go, he said once.
Speaker 5: So I did it amazingly. Actually, it's probably the best turkey.
And unless it was last year, if you only get
it once, it wasn't that amazing.
Speaker 2: Well, so it was a year we hosted. I think
the host usually needs to be in charge of the turkey.
Speaker 7: And we hosted one year a couple of years ago,
and I nailed it despite despite a lot of noise
from the peanut gallery. While I was doing it. I said, nope,
I'm doing it my way, not do it your way.
You're not in charge. You're not in charge nobody. I'm
doing it my way. That hands not deep enough. Oh
this and that, that's what.
Speaker 2: So you did it like you do every other thing
in your life. Did it my way. Thanks, not your baby.
And it was awesome. It was great. I kind of
want to do it again.
Speaker 5: You want to pat yourself on the back one more time.
Credit to myself, allow myself to credit myself. Yeah, all right,
well that was fun. When we give the LSU injury report,
coming back might not be as fun. We'll see how
that goes here on a TV segments off the bench.
All right, go to trash Rangers dot com. When you
go to the website, they're gonna have the schedule. So
if you are typically a Thursday pickup, obviously with it
being a holiday, you're going to get picked up on Friday.
If you're a Friday pickup, that moves to Saturday. The
cool part is they're not just gonna skip over you
this week and you have all that trash pile up.
They just move it back today. Yes, they work on Saturdays.
Over at trash Rangers when it is a holiday schedule.
So go to the website today sign up for residential
commercial service rollof dumpsters, three different sizes, just to choose from.
Speaker 2: Go to trash rangers dot com.
Speaker 7: Trash Rangers the most reliable trash removal service in all
of Louisiana. But let me tell you about their trash
Rangers sanitation department. We're talking about toilet portable toilets. I'm sorry,
don't look at me like that. We're talking about portable toilets.
So you got like a festival, if you've got a
construction site, whatever it is, make sure you give them
a call for that portable total that they are number
one at picking up number two.
Speaker 2: Trashminders dot com.
Speaker 1: Tigers turn Talkers. This is off the bench, all.
Speaker 2: Right, Welcome back in oh t B.
Speaker 5: Here live from the Race a Cane Studio, LSU Oklahoma
coming up this weekend in Norman. Looking at the matchup,
I think we all know Oklahoma is really good defensively,
offensively since Materia got hurt, it's been a little clunky,
you know, been good enough to win a lot of games.
Put themselves in great position to go try to make
the college Football Playoff and uh what though it's a
tatay here LSU updated their injury report.
Speaker 2: It's not great.
Speaker 3: It's not great. I mean, we know Tyree Adams is out.
Speaker 8: They really haven't given a timetable for his return, so
it doesn't seem like he's going to be back.
Speaker 3: Braylan Moore left to win on Saturday night.
Speaker 8: Ory Williams, who's actually been okay in place of Weston
Davis at least at times, he left the game as well.
Speaker 3: Both of them are questionable right now.
Speaker 8: If the game started today, the likely offensive line against
the Sooners left to right, Curious Kerrent Cohen, Eccles, DJ Chester,
Josh Thompson, and Weston Davis. So a little bit different
than what it looked like. I mean that's three starters
that were not Week one starters for this team this season.
So it's gonna look a little bit different. And I
mean outside of the O line. Caden Durham it was
not a concussion on Saturday. It was a neck injury.
We'll see how he progresses throughout the week. And you know,
weird one it happened. Uh you know last week when
Mansword Delaine met with the media, he was saying, yeah,
I don't know if I would have went back in
the Arkansas game, but I should be good to go now.
And then he didn't play it all On Saturday. He
dressed out, but that was it. Aaron Anderson's missed some times.
I mean, there's there's guys banged up all over the place.
Speaker 2: Cool. That was good.
Speaker 5: Oklahoma is the leader in the SEC and points giving
up per game. They are third in yard giving up
per game, and they're number one in sacks in the
SEC with forty one.
Speaker 8: Frank flat out yesterday he said, this is the best
defensive line we played all year and could be the
best pass rush we played all year.
Speaker 3: He said that at the press conference.
Speaker 2: Well kind of seems like our offensive line's peaking. Were
they peaking?
Speaker 7: That was a bad joke. Okay, uh no, that's not good.
For the first half of the year. I did think
that Oklahoma was Fool's gold a little bit. I didn't
think they were that good. I mean, I knew their
defense was good, but they're offensively their the offensive struggles.
I didn't think that the dominant or their defense could
maintain that dominance for an entirety of a season, especially
when they get it got into better competition, better offenses
they were facing, So I just I didn't see a
lot from their offense. I thought things would even out
a little bit when they started facing better offenses, but
it just hasn't done it. That defense has remained dominant
on everybody that they have faced. And it's a tall
task task of this LSU offense right now to go
up there and put up any type of effort against
that defense. Now effort that's probably poor choice of words,
but to be able to have a lot of success,
I mean, we haven't had much success this year.
Speaker 2: Have we gotten above twenty five yet? Not?
Speaker 7: I guess a FBS team now, So it's gonna take
a have to take a heroic effort by that offense.
You're gonna have to do things you haven't done all year,
which is be consistent in the running game.
Speaker 2: You got to be.
Speaker 7: Maybe not be as so creative, maybe just run some
more kind of basic basic plays. I think we might
be real real ball plays. Offensive line has to play
me by far their best game. I mean, if Frank
saying that this is the best defensive line, I mean,
have you studied Oklahoma that much? I just kind of
like watched it in like it's and it's entirety. I
hadn't watched it like position, Clemson's position grew, Clemson's was overhyped.
Oh yeah, this is the best. Clemson was overhyped their
D line for sure, wash for sure. So it's not
I mean, what's the over under in this game? I
went down to thirty seven and a half. It was
forty two and a half.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if it it was twenty five, I don't know
if I'd take it. Are we treating this game like
an Iowa game? You might might need to automatic under.
Speaker 7: Because like, look, I think John Mattier he was he
was really exciting coming in, but I know he's kinds
had some injuries this year. Yeah, that just haven't come
to fruition, Like the what he did at Washington State
didn't hasn't really translated. And we were kind of excited.
We were hopeful for it because he did so many
cool things up there. But Inventables is defensive guy and
it's showing. But what an improvement Oklahoma's made from one
year to the next. I think they were second and
second to last in the SEC last year. Yeah, is
that what they were or at least they're in the
bottom half and has a brutal schedule this year, brutal schedule,
and we were we talked about before the season, we
were talking about this summer leading up, it's like Venables,
this this might be it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because of him.
Speaker 5: And our narrative was not even because they're bad, but
because of who they got to go through and what
the record might look like.
Speaker 7: I know, well, I mean, yeah, you look at the
record they had to go through. They of course they
bring in a good quarterback, but you really don't know
how that's going to play out. You tell us that
they brought in that quarterback and he's gonna be fighting
through injuries all season. We've been like, yeah, they're gonna
be at the bottom half again just because of the
schedule and what they did last year. So hell of
the season by Oklahoma, even though their fan base doesn't
show out and pay any money to get in there,
getting the stadium every year, every week the Chief Tickets,
Chief Tickets. We learned that every Friday. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 5: Now, as much as we are talking about the L
s U offense and what they can't do, Oklahoma's offense
isn't exactly world beaters. When it's yards per game this year,
LSU's fourteenth in the SEC, Oklahoma's thirteenth. When it comes
to points per game, LSU is fifteenth in the SEC,
Oklahoma's twelfth. So this is going to be a defensive
struggle by all accounts, no doubt. I mean, this is
going to be seventeen fourteen, two thousand and six type.
Speaker 7: I would venture to guess that that number is going
to even creep down even more. Let some weather hit
this weekend. It's supposed to be some weather. I mean, Norman,
I mean, we're gonna look at the thirty five and
below on the total here, I mean, like thirty five.
Can you imagine anything like scoring seventeen points? I can't
imagine LSU, I hope. So what if we just come
out and just dice it up Van Buren and take
a couple of games trail issue to.
Speaker 8: Get speaking up Van Buren? Oh, Karon Nolsmar might give
it a go this week. Frank Wilson, he was asked
about Nelson's status. He said, we're gonna get him out there.
He's feeling better, he said, I'll give you all a
better update as a week goes on.
Speaker 2: But might give it a go take the over.
Speaker 7: I gotta tell you, as a competitor, there is nothing
like having to watch your team play in sweats. There's
no big, bigger motivator than having to sit and watch
practice and sit and watch a game. And sometimes when
you have the yips in any type of sport, sitting
and watching other people do it, Yeah, can fix a
lot mentally. I will say that if you are good
and you can like train your mind to take mental
reps and watch, yeah, mm hmm, suddenly be something to
pay attention to. You know, this offense the foundation. I mean,
he's got nothing to lose by doing it. He's not
going to hurt his draft stock by doing it. He's
not going to Like I saw a guy sitting against
the the fence after the game taking it all in
one last time at Tiger Stadium.
Speaker 2: I saw a guy that would like to give it
a go. Yeah, why not? Well, it's the latest on
wit weeks. He didn't.
Speaker 3: He didn't give an injury updated for Witt, So I
mean it maybe more of the same. He said he
could see a little bit of an increased workload.
Speaker 5: But how we say yesterday fourteen plays that what we
said something like that. Yeah, it's a big game for
a guy like Witt and this is no. I'm not
trying to throw too much shade at at Devine. Key's there.
He's a good college football player, but limited athletically. In
a game like this, Mat Tier is going to be
running around the tiers, going to be trying to make plays.
He is Baker Mayfield light that that is his game.
I really like LSU chances if number forty is in
the middle of that defense.
Speaker 7: Because Harold's played well over last couple of years. Ever
since that's a serious question. You like their chances for
what to hold them, to.
Speaker 5: Keep it low scoring, enough for LSU's offense to do
something like pokemon a stake, do something, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 7: It's one of those games that it's going to take turnovers,
it's gonna take a special teams big play, whether it's
a touchdown or block pun or block field goal. It's
one of those games that if you want to, of
course you got it. It's LSU versus Oklahoma. I know
the record, I know the optics versus Western Kentucky. Bye, God, Elise,
you can win this game. Sure, I'm gonna pick them. Well, yeah,
I mean, oh yeah, you ain't gonna have my face next.
But it's gonna take something special. It's gonna take a
special play because offensively, yeah, you can make a play.
Let's say, let's say enough plays and and you know,
you get a little glimpse of the past with nuts
Or Van Buren has got a couple of games on
his belt, a little bit more experiency. He comes out
and dices it up a little bit. I don't think
we can expect a consistently steady offensive performance. There's gonna
be three and outs, there's gonna be bad wide receiver screens,
there's gonna be bad running plays. There's gonna be miss blocks. Sure, whatever,
But if you can make enough plays, why can't you.
But it's gonna take some special efforts on special. Team's
gonna take some special efforts on defense, certainly, And to
your point, worked weeks just being on the team, not
saying that he would be the one to make that play,
but him being on the field gives you the best
chance of doing that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he just got a different level of athleticism to
him than the other guys that have filled in for him.
The other guys are more box linebackers where we know
Wit can be all the above. I mean he can
be in the box, he can line up out wide
if he even played a couple of reps at star
in your favorite position in this game.
Speaker 1: So what.
Speaker 5: So that means are a lot of things that he
can do that you know Devon Keys is not going
to be able to get done at the same level.
So yeah, you look, you need everything that you possibly
can in this matchup. It's not like I'm saying that
they're unbeatable. I don't think it's that situation. I know
a lot of people I was listening to somebody yesterday
that's like the metrics say it's going to be a
twenty seven to three game.
Speaker 2: I don't have it like that. I think it's going
to be a.
Speaker 5: Close, low scoring which team on offense can make the play.
And again, if it's fourteen to ten, I wouldn't be surprised,
Like I expected to be a murky offensive game, to
say the least.
Speaker 2: Murkey. I mean just you can't even see what it's
supposed to look like. Yeah, hey, just takes one. What'd
you say the metrics said? Is what I mean? Twenty
seven to three? I heard somebody breaking it down, and
it's like, yeah, based off this model and.
Speaker 7: Based off oh, like if you just watched like LSU
play last week, you know club play last week. Yeah,
you could say that, but they don't play last week.
Guess what they play this week that they do, right,
you are, and that they do? All right, we'll step

Speaker 5: So the Saints who are holding kicker tryouts now both
names here in Louisiana are no names. One for obvious reasons.
Kade York, all American at LSU kicked a field goal
that was basically from Tallahassee to Gainesville. In the fog,
nobody could even see it go through the uprights, but
it did. Fifty five plus. The other's Justin Tucker. Yep,
I heard of him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, great kicker on the best in the NFL history.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and uh had some extracurricular obviously the reason he's
not with the Ravens. Yes, it's the reason he's not
with the Ravens anymore. He went was it an eight
game suspension? I think eight game suspension, So that's now.
I guess that's over since he you know, he didn't
sign with the team. It's kind of weird.
Speaker 2: It actually should be when you you should have to
be with a team.
Speaker 5: But either way, Uh, yeah, So the Saints have tried
out Justin Tucker and Cade York Blake Groupie look nice guy,
that's what everybody says.
Speaker 2: That's great.
Speaker 5: You can't you can't miss that many kicks in the NFL,
certainly anymore, and you can't miss ones that are forty
five and in.
Speaker 2: You've got to be automatic basically from forty five at inn.
Speaker 7: I gotta tell you, the Saints probably one of the
most loyal organizations out there. No kidding, like Groupy would
have been cut weeks ago anywhere else on thirty one
other teams like Nicki Lemmons would have been fired by
thirty one teams six years ago.
Speaker 2: The only reason that you don't.
Speaker 5: Cut this type of kicker with this performance is if
you drafted him in the third or fourth round this year, right,
and you're like, hey, like we.
Speaker 2: Got we gotta try to say face a little bit here.
Speaker 6: So he's one of their eight captains, so he's kind
of important.
Speaker 2: Sure, big deal eight captains.
Speaker 6: I probably I might have exaggerated that, but it's a
handful of.
Speaker 2: Several several several Okay, yeah, I don't like that.
Speaker 5: Well that was that was like there's one off laughing,
there's one on defense, and there's a special.
Speaker 7: There was at least six, because it was a big
joke before this season how many captains they had.
Speaker 8: She actually nailed it as eight. Coming into the season
they needed eight captain. I'm okay with five five one
of them already.
Speaker 2: I would say Brandon Cooks was a captain.
Speaker 3: And Cooks was a captain, and yeah, I do ball.
Speaker 7: I actually don't mind the Brandon Cooks as a captain deal.
We talked about who's the actual vocal leader of the offense.
Speaker 2: Who's no, and maybe this wasn't the plan.
Speaker 5: I'll say I don't like it because for me, a
captain has to be somebody that when it hits the
fan and times are tough, him being like in the
locker room and speaking up one thing, but I need
to see him do it on the field too.
Speaker 2: And Brandon Cooks wasn't playing plan. Nobody did anything on
the field though, So who would have been captain?
Speaker 3: Nobody?
Speaker 6: Nobody deserves to be a capt for me.
Speaker 2: Offense would have been Eric McCoy and Ak they are.
Speaker 5: On defense, it would have been Camo.
Speaker 2: He's also have been those and then I would have
had one, and then I would have had one special
team would there? They're long and group there's one more
not Groupye?
Speaker 6: It was Brandon Cooks was the other one.
Speaker 3: And Justin Reid, Hey, Justin Reed.
Speaker 2: Red there we go, Oh, Jay Reid.
Speaker 6: I mean, I guess.
Speaker 3: Outside of Cooks and Groupie, it's not a bad group.
Speaker 6: I mean, you just still don't need six captains.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, so back to the point. Yeah, GROUPY is
a not a very good NFL cooker kicker. No, No,
he's better than you know, most people in the world
are kicking. Sure, but yeah, thirty third out of thirty
two teams not great.
Speaker 6: And he was still the kicker for a I'm surprised thirty.
Speaker 7: Third, So it was time move on. Maybe he's got
the yips. Maybe it'll be better next year for somebody else.
Speaker 6: He doesn't need to be he's historically good.
Speaker 2: Was the second year?
Speaker 3: No, this is like his is it third?
Speaker 5: The ten games for Justin Tuckery. I was just looking
it up. Ten games suspension for sexual misconduct?
Speaker 6: They'd rather that than Blake Groupye Well, yeah.
Speaker 5: Blake Groupie right now is sixty nine point two percent
and twenty twenty five. That's Look, that's not even up
for debate. Even if he has like incriminating photos of
the front office, you still got to make a move.
Remember we were that's that's egregious.
Speaker 8: We were all we were all crapping on jo Justin
Tucker even before all this came out as last season,
saying oh, he's not the same kicker he was in
seventy three percent.
Speaker 3: Actually, so we think about how that group.
Speaker 2: Yea, he was.
Speaker 6: To be fair to him, he had a like an
insane drop off this season. You're right, like he he
dropped by like thirty percent.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he was eighty nine percent in his career right
before that when Cad York seventy three point three percent
in his career.
Speaker 8: York was another guy who kind of got the yips
a little bit, like he started great and then I
mean you.
Speaker 5: Oh, I thought Caid York was going to be one
of the all time greats they can call that guy
was nailed.
Speaker 3: And it's a rookie with with Cleveland, it was really coo.
Speaker 2: I mean was nails.
Speaker 5: Like when you needed a big kick, it's like, Okay,
Cage's gonna go smack it from fifty two in college
and that was like at that time he'd never seen
that before.
Speaker 7: There's not a lot of kickers out there in the
history of kicking that have been dogs. Justin Tucker is
one of those guys, though, I'm telling like, I mean,
you don't want to be like a street fight because
he's a kicker obviously, but like most kickers are head cases, right,
But there's some kickers, and there's there's probably a lot
more this day and age of kickers that have a
little bit of dog mentality, like I'm gonna make it
from anywhere like screw you whatever, Like give me the ball,
let me kick it from anywhere. Like just Tucker was
that guy for a long time. Now he had his
situation off the field. But you know, I think we
believe a society, if you do the crime and you
do the time, then you should be rehabilitated back into society.
So does he deserve another chance?
Speaker 2: I don't know. That's for the Saints to decide.
Speaker 5: I will never like, I will never root for Justin
Tucker before all of that happened.
Speaker 2: That just adds to it.
Speaker 5: But he had a forty seven yarder against US in
double overtime in the playoffs, so he can fly.
Speaker 2: You remember that? Remember that a.
Speaker 7: Video clip of it? Was it before a playoff game.
They were playing the Chiefs and he was trying to
kick me. Kickers are very territorial about their like pre
game area when they're trying to kick, nothing else matters,
Like they'll kick around cheerleaders or bands, their quarterbacks, Hall
of Fame quarterbacks doing their routine homes and yeah.
Speaker 2: Got his tea and just threw it away. Get out
of here, kicker. Yeah that was that was a cringe moment.
But like I hate kickers. Wor like when they miss
a field goal. I'm like, you have one job.
Speaker 5: I remember during training camp when you were at the
driving range, I said, a kicking feels bud.
Speaker 6: Justin Tucker was at massage parlor.
Speaker 8: So true.
Speaker 2: I takn't care.
Speaker 8: I think you signed kid York over Tucker, not pick
the take the Indians out of it.
Speaker 3: He hadn't played all year.
Speaker 8: Now York hasn't either, But last year Kaed York got
brought in Cold hit eighty two percent of his field goals.
Speaker 3: He was nine of eleven for Cincinnati last year.
Speaker 8: Cold Justin Tucker last year was seventy three percent, the
worst of his career, and he was six for eleven
of fifty plus Andy. Andy's got all the baggage along
with him, Like, I'm probably signing, Yes, I'm probably signing York.
I don't I don't know if what they say is
the juice worth the squeeze. I don't think it is
with Justin Tucker anymore.
Speaker 7: I've always been I've always been curious as to when
they bring kickers in for a workout.
Speaker 3: I should have went with that. But yeah, it's fine,
it's fine.
Speaker 2: We're going to break OTB coming back off the bench.
Speaker 5: Justin all right, go to all Star, Toyota, Baton, Rouge

Speaker 2: That's good, clean fun. People could clean fun. I signed
k York.
Speaker 7: Yes, if you bring two kickers in for a tryout,
is it it means you're trying to decide between you two.
You want to see what they got, Like, do you
put him through a competition? Who makes if most field goals?
Speaker 2: Gets it? Like That's how it was when I, like
when I went to go work out and I want
to go work out.
Speaker 7: It was a competition. I went to go work out
for the Cowboys one time and it was four quarterbacks there. Yeah,
and it was like, all right, I was the last one.
They're like the three of them went home and I
stayed there because I threw it better than them.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Now they ended up signing Matt Castle like a couple
hours later, who wasn't there. Yeah, I would have beat him.
Speaker 1: Too.
Speaker 2: Well, like if like the kickers come in, it's like,
whoever kicks better that day gets the job, right?
Speaker 5: I think so, although I don't know so because I
went on to workout with the Bears. It was me
and Ryan Grant and I was routing people up and
he fell on three routes and dropped the ball and
they signed him. My teammate, So good guy, great guy
had a better day our two coming back.
Speaker 1: Off the bench.
Speaker 2: Routing the people left team. I feel it myself. On
that one. I was like, oh, they're kind of signed,
