Speaker 1: I'll start Toyota Presents Off the Bench with Jacob Hester
and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 2: Hester and Hester got it, Finetta fa.
Speaker 1: From carrying each other to a natty to carrying each other.
Speaker 2: On the air.
Speaker 3: There's prop control.
Speaker 2: Live from the Raising Kine Studio. It's off the bench.
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back again our number three of ot
B here live from the Raising Kine Studio. Our three,
Our three has your back feeling bud real bad?
Speaker 4: All right? Bye? Could curse? I would?
Speaker 3: You can curse only certain first words, not these ones.
But yeah, all right, are we connected there?
Speaker 5: They are cooking with gas so I don't have the
teleustraighter work, and yeah, technical difficulties on our part, but whatever.
We're still going to watch a little film because we
went a week last week. We didn't have any film
to watch. It was a bye week. But we are
going to watch a little bit this week. Throughout the week,
we'll be clipping it up. So a lot of negative, right,
all right? We lost Dama beat us. We couldn't execute
on offense. There was a lot of the same. But
I'll tell you what, there was a lot of good
as well that I saw on the offensive side of
the ball even from Nosmeyer. And what I'm gonna show
you is two clips from the same drive. It's the
first drive in the second half. Now, this drive ended
in very poor fashion, with Garrett taking an awful sack
at the end which eventually got him benched. But I
will tell you that from a schematic standpoint, there were
times that were scripted Firs fifteen coming out from the
second half. There you could tell that there was offensive
minded coaches that had to say so in the play call,
in the play design throughout the week because it was different.
It's things that we haven't really done before. We moved
the pocket. In the first half. We threw some really
good screens. We threw a normal like on schedule screen
to the running back, we had some play action, but
we also went under the center and ran a play
action fake. I'm going to show you two clips from
the same drive. I saw it now. They were both
good ended up being good plays. But I want to
show you the difference that can make that. We talk
about going under center some as a change up. The
state age used to shotgun used to be a change up.
Now it's going under center. But I want a balanced
offense attack. What does that mean. What does a balance mean?
It's not necessarily running past. Michael Leach, of course, gave
that famous like speech about well, you know, we thought
it ninety percent of the time, but eight different guys
get the ball. That's balance in a balanced attack to me,
is a lot of different A lot of people get
the ball. But you give the defense so many things
to look at. They never can guess and tee off
and predict what you're doing, whether that's under the center,
whether that's a pass, whether it's a screen, all the
different things.
Speaker 4: So let's go to the tape here.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna show you this first clip and I want
to show you the difference of under center and in
the gun. Now, both of these end up being a
good play. We're gonna get here again. This is first
drive of the second half. Weave the score seventeen to
three at this point.
Speaker 4: So watch this. So we're in a pistol formation. What
we're gonna do.
Speaker 5: We're gonna have a play action fake. We're gonna run
a dig route to the X receiver Z receiver. The
next is gonna go like an OTB over the ball
type situation. Yeah, but I want you to see the
linebackers and no respect for a play action fake out
of pistol. Right the quarterback turns us back for a second.
They don't even care, right, They just go ahead and
back up. Now, Garrett makes a nice throw. This backer
right here doesn't kind of a poor job because Garrett
doesn't even look him off, but he does. He just
didn't find the lane. But boom, good throw. Let's watch
it from the back. So we're going to go to
gun watch. Just watch the linebacker and safety the lack
of respect they show for that token fake right here. Boom,
nothing right, just maybe a little bit, maybe a little
bit hesitation, boom. Good play anyway, it's still good. I
love seeing it. I love seeing the play action. I
love seeing the quarterback turn his back to the ball.
Now I want two plays later, Lsu comes in under center,
and I want you to watch the respect that the
linebackers give to a play action fake from underneath the center.
There is power in turning your back to the defense
as a quarterback. It's a lost art in college football.
You're starting to see it come back and be relevant
again in the NFL ranks, but you don't see this often.
Speaker 4: Why is it powerful?
Speaker 5: Because when you turn your back to the defense as
a quarterback. When the defense cannot see the football when
it's hidden, they don't know what to do. They hesitate,
and it creates windows. It creates opportunities for your wide
receivers running full speed to exploit the hesitation by the defense.
So in that pistol clip that we just showed, he
turned his back. Oh split second. It wasn't really long
enough to get a good play action fake. But I
want you to watch the respect that has to be
shown by the defense when we turn our back for
a longer period of time and do a more traditional
play action fake. It's almost in unison, right, almost in you.
As they all come up, they come up, they come up.
One the mic linebacker almost comes up to the line
of scrimmage. Yeah, given our opportunity, Xavian over the top
on a deep over route or a deep cross route,
however you want to say it. Garrettnusmuyer is able to
set his feet. It's kind of backing up still a
little bit. I don't want to see. I want to
see his right hip going towards the target a little
bit more. But boom, get it over, throw it over
the line back. I want's call that between the hashes.
Almost watch this great We turn our back to the
defense and it hides the ball. It's not a great fake,
but that's what happened when you turn like this is
not a great fake. Now, hey, Kayden Durham leaves his assignment.
I don't know what he's looking at. He's trying to
get to his pass protection. I'd like to see that
mesh point a lot better right there. I'd love to see.
But look, even a bad fake from underneath the center
still gets this action. Look at that still gets that action.
And guess who he gets a throat over. Yep, it's ten,
the guy that we faked and we play action against
who almost got the line of scrimmage. If that's not
a good fake, or if we were in pistol, this
pass does not get completed.
Speaker 4: Love it. I love to see this, and it's something
different that we just haven't done this season. First tun Tigers.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and those are just things that like just little
things you pinpoint. That's what good offenses do. They balance attack. Okay, yeah,
we made a good play on the pistol fake. That's fine.
We made a good throw, But go underneath the center,
run the football of it. I'm not saying you have
to do it a lot. I'm not saying I want
I want to go back to a less Wiles type
offense right now.
Speaker 4: That's not what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: But you look at the best offenses in the world,
the best offices in the NFL, they are balanced attack
from being in the shotgun, being underneath the center. Now,
sometimes like a game plan consists in the way the
flow of the ebbs and flow of a football game.
Sometimes you get down, sometimes you get and you have
to do that. You have to go into gun. You
have to be a little bit more past centric. But
I just wanted to show you that because we haven't
done that. And you could tell that some there's some coaches,
offensive minded coaches that wanted to like there's plays that
they wanted to get in all year and they were
able to do it, and there was a lot of
good that was thrown out there. Now that foundation of
the offense has been set and he got set in
stone with the old old regime, I guess if you will,
on the offensive side of things, and like you can't
stray too far away, but you could tell that there
was little really good football plays that the offensive coaches
wanted to get in the game and they were able to.
There's just only so much you could do with a
week and a half half of game prep. Oh hey, yeah,
but that was beautiful.
Speaker 4: Man, that was.
Speaker 3: Can we also admit, like that's a very easy thing.
It's for me that they weren't doing it right that
like that like that right, and so it's like, oh man,
that's we saw it. But it's like, wait a minute,
why in the world was something like that not already implemented?
So like it can be frustrating at the same time,
and again, like we we go back and we talk
about the passing charts, like that's how you help out
five minutes, it's like you're for sure, yeah, for sure.
I mean that slowed that slowed them down. That helped
them out. But it's like if a football field is
fifty three point three yards, why one hundred, one hundred
and sixty feet If I'm doing my math right, quick math,
so you have all of that right and if you
only do it in fractions like that is so easy
for a defense and certainly like somebody like Kan Womock
who's been doing it for long he's been a head coach,
a successful head coach, and so like those are the
things I still like want to see though, is like,
you know, like the play you had, like Ravane Buren
saw was blitz. He's like getting the ball out there
blitz on a thought right back to the blitz. Let
me attack the blitz and he would have had a
huge play. Matt, I don't know that we've done that
this year. We have just like how quick he got
it just boom route get it out.
Speaker 5: And I'm and I can't even really put that on
us because no, most of them the conceptually that past
game has been.
Speaker 4: Anemic.
Speaker 5: I've said it, and like that's why I wanted to
show a couple of good clips there. It's like we're
at the point in the season like I kind of
like to highlight the good right now. There's no reason
to like stay shaking our fists and getting mad at it.
And we are certainly we're gonna do our film review
article that we do every week. We're gonna do more
film throughout and what we'll highlight a lot of the
bad and the things that need to be improved on.
All right, let's not do this any good let's let's
get a little positivity in the air. We did do
some some nice things conceptually in the game, but like
nothing earth shattering certainly that what we were doing you
could have say. I think early in the season, I
was like, man, we need to be more creative on offense.
We need to be more creative. But the more I
looked at it, I was like, maybe we just need
to be like less creative and just go back to
just some basic football stuff, right. And they tried, and
they tried, but again there's only so much you can
get done.
Speaker 3: And I was surprised that anytime you typically have an
interim coach and you've got some time to prepare, you'll.
Speaker 4: See something.
Speaker 3: Kind of like Babama in the game with right, something
like that typically, and you didn't see anything like that.
I've been shocked at Juwan Johnson, who's got like all
these high school records as a quarterback, every like state record,
has played running back all year and has not put
the ball in the air, Like that's something I was expecting,
Like something like that of that nature, why not go
ahead and see But again, it's a foundation I think
offensively that's so broken, Like even something like that feels
like it would be too much.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean you had to have the feeling because
like I'm sure the coaching staff had the feeling, like
I had the feeling watching the game. It was like
we were in the game for so long. Just like,
just make a couple of different plays. Don't screw up
the end of the first half with throwing the ball
away and bad clock management giving them an opportunity to
go score and make it seventeen to three. I mean you,
I mean, how different you feeling We're going into the
halftime at ten to three knowing you missed a field goal,
knowing you've missed a lot of couple of easy opportunities
on offense.
Speaker 4: Yeah, ugh, whatever, do you have the play? Do you
have the play backed up?
Speaker 3: The one we're talking about, because if we continue talking
about it backed up where you're throwing into the blitz,
it's not just a highlight like a drop. It's to
kind of show you what we're talking about a little
bit here and the opportunity that you have. And it
was a good decision by Van Buren to to understand
what the situation was and you had an opportunity. And remember,
in that moment, you were down one score. That's when
you were down seventeen to nine. So yeah, you had
a chance, and I don't like I don't know where
it ends up. I don't know where that play ends up,
but it would have been a hell of a play
and at the very least like you're pinning them back
with a punt because of where you end up on
that play, even if you don't move the ball past
where you would have ended up.
Speaker 4: Yeah, here we got it that.
Speaker 5: I hadn't watched this on film yet, so it'll be
fun to we'll be watching a live breaking it down
line with you. All right, Look, we got a little
empty for a three by two situation, so we got
a five man protection. Oh we got four down linemens,
So at this point, from a protection standpoint is from
the center and the quarterback gotta be thinking, all right, lineman,
we're gonna be in charge of the four down plus
the most dangerous. So I think the obvious thing in
this type situation. Let's back it up just a little
bit from right here, you gotta be going Mike Middle
probably in this situation, because you got three defenders for
three wide receivers, you're thinking, you're alert for this guy
because of body language. Of course, probably not sending your
line there unless you know, no, no, that he's coming.
So if the linemen are going four down plus this
backer right here he comes off the slot, you're hot.
I mean, that's it. That's just football, baby, all right.
So they end up bringing five little simulated pressure. They
drop the backside end. Okay, So what do you do
in a zone pressure situations? You throw into the blitz.
You replace their guys with your guys because there's always
going to be old. This guy right here has got
a tough situation because he has to scrape all the
way over to carry three.
Speaker 4: Vertical and he goes the wrong way. He bussed. Oh
this guy eleven bus he bad assignment.
Speaker 5: Eleven has to be scraping over the top to carry
three vertical.
Speaker 4: That's his job.
Speaker 5: He busts bad situation, we see it. Throw in to
the blitz into it. Now he's not scoring everyone. Oh
he still be right on now. I mean he's getting
to their watch from the back end. This is a great,
great job, great execution. Sometimes they bring the guys that
you can't like. You're not you're as a quarterback. You're
saying all right four down, I got five a protection.
We're going to go to this guy. They'll bring an
extra guy. They they drop the backside number zero, backside
end number forty one right here.
Speaker 4: Bus he should be scraping over the top. Tough.
Speaker 5: And those are the plays you gotta make when you're
the underdog, when you're att somebody else's stadium. You're down
on the score. And he's done so many great things. Yeah,
so many great things. I mean, everybody's got to drop passes.
This isn't poping on him. It's just unfortunate. Happened right there,
that situation. New quarterback in there, got played, got played.
Speaker 4: His ass off.
Speaker 6: I thought, yeah, I like the quick decision, quick decision,
that concept, like, I don't know, man, just simple.
Speaker 5: It's just simple ball. It hadn't it doesn't look like
they were they were ready for it.
Speaker 4: He peaked.
Speaker 5: That wasn't He wasn't supposed to run something quick right there.
But they blitzed off his face. He came off his
face and he peaked. Yep, it's good. It was good
football just got.
Speaker 4: Oh. It could have been end up on the thirty
five there.
Speaker 3: Who knows what happens from there, but gotta make those
plays in a game like that. You gotta make them
or you'll have the same situation play out. You give
him the ball back, they kicked the field goal, game
got out of hand, Tiger's loose. All right, we'll step
away more OTB when we come back here live from

Speaker 3: Hopefully you'll all enjoyed the weekend, and hopefully y'all all
enjoyed a ice cold do sequies during the weekend always
a great time to go to the dose. Going to
be back for a tail getting weekend this weekend. So
if you're around Tiger Stadium, make sure that you've got
that ice cold do sequis in hand. Don't know the weather,
but it doesn't matter. It's always a great time to
go for dose.
Speaker 5: Make sure you get a little maybe I put a
cooozie on it. It's chilli outside, that's true. That's a
good favor hand. It's a good point.
Speaker 3: One of the things that I wanted to point out
is we go back real quick here to the New
Orleans Saints victory over Carolina seventeen to seven.
Speaker 4: One thing that certainly stood out.
Speaker 3: As you look at the pro football focused grades and
you looked at the actual, you know, play on the field.
I think one of the reasons why you had some
access and you had a great performance by Tyler Shuck
and again he had great pocket presence and it was
a really good job by him.
Speaker 4: But Caesar Ruiz seventy four, say four, what grade? Shut up?
Swear to god liar.
Speaker 3: Kelvin Banks Junior seventy two. Panthers are asked, I don't care.
I hadn't seen those grades in a long time. Certainly
that's amazing. Good for them. Past blocking grade for Caesar
eighty eight point six. He had been in the forties,
he's been the thirty thirties.
Speaker 7: Yeah, don't look now, don't.
Speaker 4: Let that make it hot.
Speaker 3: Let's see who so Kelvin Banks eighty seven point eight.
So the protection was was actually there for the New
Orleans Saints. And I'm looking so let me pull up Caesar.
Let me see if I can pull up the hotel.
Speaker 5: The protection was there, but chuck, he chuck did his
best work on unscheduled plays, though, certainly.
Speaker 3: So okay, And if you want to try to right
find maybe some different is here.
Speaker 4: All right?
Speaker 3: So this was Caesar graded past blocking grade at eighty
eight point six.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 3: The week before he was sixty five. The week before
that he was sixty three point three. The week before
that he was forty nine point one. Week three he
was forty seven point three. Week two he was thirty
five point seven. And this isn't it's every week on Caesaruiz.
Speaker 4: It's like.
Speaker 3: No, it's just actual, like NFL level protection that they
finally we're able to give him.
Speaker 5: The chatter said that Caesar Ruis cheated on his test
this week. Well he needs to cheat every week, sat
next to a smart person. Well, good for him. He
needs to do it every single week. I think you
just read off all the grades the past couple weeks.
It looks like there's improvement every single week. Now it
started in the thirties, started from the bottom.
Speaker 4: Now we hear now it wasn't for everybody.
Speaker 3: I mean the right side of your or sorry, left side, yeah,
left guard forty five point five, your right tackles fifty five,
so not horrible.
Speaker 4: What was Luke fordner forder? Actually I thought he played willis.
Speaker 3: See overall grades sixty nine point two pass block and
grade seventy eight point three.
Speaker 8: So it will just I mean when McCoy went down,
everyone said, oh, that's by far your best lineman.
Speaker 4: You're going to struggle there. I thought he's played well, yeah,
it's funny though, like these grades are great.
Speaker 3: But to Matt's point, I thought Tyler Schuck was best
whenever he kind of created on his own a little bit, certainly.
Speaker 4: Extended to play a little bit.
Speaker 3: The coverage got laxed because they thought he was either
down or he was going to take off, and he
did a really nice job of stepping up and then
kind of going sideways down the line of scrimmage to
buy some more time, and he found two guys I
know opened off that that were big plays.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, and it started. It started out early on in
that was it the scramble out the middle? Is it
a passage Johnson?
Speaker 3: Early?
Speaker 5: Yeah, on the left side of the field, that down
the field, great throw, great great pocket presence, drives down
the field, finding a guy making the play.
Speaker 4: That's what you gotta do. And I thought he did.
I thought he played a great game.
Speaker 5: If he could start stacking games like that, if that
is going to be Tyler Shuck's normal.
Speaker 4: Type of game, then the Saints got a good one.
We got it.
Speaker 5: Like I can't wait to see him play again, can't
wait to see his offense play again. You hope it
wouldn't just like a flash of the fan. I don't
think it was. I mean those were real football. I
mean those it wasn't like a It wasn't like an accident.
Wasn't I accidentally found him. They presented you some open
guys when you were able to extend the play, and
you took advantage of it.
Speaker 4: And that's what good teams do. That easy. Not a
good team, but that's what a winning team does.
Speaker 7: Yeah, the Falcons next, who aren't looking great, No, Falcon.
Speaker 3: I mean they had some moments against the Colts, had
an opportunity against the Colts.
Speaker 5: They did, but they took him to overtime. Yeah, that
was a great game that that early. Yeah, start out
to day, right, MVP. How about the NFL MVP JO, Like,
I agree with y'all now.
Speaker 7: Like after the game, he's he's definitely in the conversation
for me before, but after that game he has got
to be.
Speaker 8: Then at the end of the game, you know who
they're going to overtime, We're gonna go to Jonathan Taylor.
Speaker 4: Still can't stop him. It doesn't matter.
Speaker 5: He's gonna need about five or six more of those
types of games to be able to win it. Because
it's a quarterback award.
Speaker 4: He can do it because he's had about five already.
To your point, I don't know, dude. Well, look at
what Stafford's doing right now. I get it. He's my MVP.
Speaker 5: I think in the last couple of games he's had
I think four touchdowns five in or let's see four
touchdowns interceptions, five touchdowns interceptions and four touchdowns interceptions. I
think the last three games that's an impossible like momentum
to keep. But it's also impossible for Jonathan Taylor to
like have those types of games every single week, like.
Speaker 4: Only I get it.
Speaker 5: It's averaging six yard yah. Here, what is what's Stafford's
touchdowns on the season? Twenty twenty five touchdowns two interceptions
right now, I mean four.
Speaker 3: It's gonna be It's gonna be a good race because
it's gonna be Jonathan Taylor.
Speaker 4: And Darnold's up there too.
Speaker 7: He's unreal. But yeah, Bloody Jones uh here? Yeah, who
thought Daniel Jones was a badass?
Speaker 3: He's leading the league in passing yards. I saw a
goot a good tweet yesterday. It was a screenshot of
Indiana Jones. So that blood on it looks like he
had red lipstick on.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and there was somebody was talking about, Oh, Caleb
Williams is so pissed because another quarterba lipstick.
Speaker 4: That beat me to it.
Speaker 7: He's the most athletic dude ever. He can wear whatever
you want like that.
Speaker 4: No, it's gonna be a good race. I love to
see that.
Speaker 5: There's another position that will that will be in the
discussion for it. Yeah, but like I gotta, I gotta
give it up to Stafford.
Speaker 4: Right now.
Speaker 5: So he's got a similar like he's never won an MVP. Yeah,
he's thirty seven, never won an MVP. Young, I I
don't know if he's ever been All Pro. He hasn't
never been. They were talking not first team, they were
talking about it on the Brocast, which is wild, right,
And but a guy that's had just a sneaky, amazing career.
I'sn't even say he won the Super Bowl. But like,
if he didn't start out his first what ten years
or whatever in Detroit, his trajectory is probably it's not
it's not his fault that he plays in the same
league as like.
Speaker 4: Her team success.
Speaker 3: Now, individual he did have Megatron, but to your point,
they were still bad.
Speaker 5: He had individual success. Yeah, of course, is he a
Hall of Famer Matthew staff.
Speaker 4: Ques, no question, I agree, But again, no MVP is
no all pros for that matter. Hmmm, that's a good point.
Speaker 5: I think it's it's a common sense when this like
how many Pro Bowls, Like Pro Bowls doesn't really mean
anything anymore to me.
Speaker 8: All of those are kind of subjective now, I mean
they're voted one. Yeah, like I could argue you could
argue that like Josh Allen had a better year two
years ago than he did last year, but he won
the MVP last year. It's like, all of those are
kind of subjective. I don't I don't care about those
that much.
Speaker 5: I can tell you, even at thirty seven years old,
if I'm starting a franchise, I'm picking Stafford right now.
Speaker 4: He only played for a couple of years. But if
you want, if you want a win, though, you give
me four or five two year contract.
Speaker 5: But his game, like he doesn't have to, he doesn't
run around. I don't know, maybe I'll rethink that, but
he's the best quarterback in the NFL right now.
Speaker 3: Right now, you're passing leaders in the NFL as far
as yards, Daniel Jones, justin Herbert, Drake May, Matthew Stafford,
Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 5: Yeah, how about that Drake May is Drake May is
leading the like I think someone has just said. I
think yesterday he was leading the betting nods. But I
guess right now, Drake May and Stafford are both plus
three hundred, so it's leading in the clubhouse for MVP.
I mean, I get it's a popularity vote, but yeah,
I mean, it should be the best player in the NFL,
which is what it's supposed to be like. To Taylor's point,
josh Alla probably played better of the year before than
he did last.
Speaker 4: But he played great. But yeah, it's it's.
Speaker 8: I mean, we were we were talking about it when
you asked this our MVP. One of the reasons I
gave was, look at the two games that the Colts
have lost, They've not been able to run the ball,
and they go as Jonathan Taylor goes the hit forty
five yards against the Steelers, he hit seventy six against
the Rams.
Speaker 4: Nothing.
Speaker 8: Look at what he did yesterday to forty four three
touchdowns like he he I understand Daniel Jones has had
a good season. That offense runs through Jonathan Tail.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this certainly does. But for MVP, can't have a
forty five yard game. Say what, there's a well you
can if you have like two hundred and forty yards.
He had to stick to you to your point, you
gotta happen you have the moments there, Yeah, you gotta
have more.
Speaker 7: I think something grind yesterday?
Speaker 4: How long was that he had to forty yesterday? Right?
He hit an eighty d Yeah, two forty for the game.
Speaker 3: Something also very cool to see, and I think it's
a great, uh you know example of when you call
people a bus or you call people like, you know,
didn't didn't not he went in a pro It's like, well,
situation matters too. Your two top QBR or sorry, quarterback
ratings that have qualified because Lamar's hadn't played the amount
of games Jared Goff and Sam Darnold. Let's not forget
Jared Golf was traded for Stafford and it was kind
of a throw in because they were done with him,
even though he gone to a Super Bowl. It's like, yeah,
have but this guy's ceilings not you know, he's he's okay.
He's like, hey, here, we'll toss this. Same with the
draft picks. And now Jared Golf is in a situation
where he's completing seventy four percent of his passes this year,
seventy four percent of his passes going for over twenty
two hundred yards, twenty touchdowns, only three interceptions for Jared Goff.
Speaker 8: I think people look down on Golf because, look, you
get traded for Stafford. Stafford wins the Super Bowl is first, Yeah,
and a lot of people can be well, Golf held
him back.
Speaker 4: It's been a hell of a quarterback.
Speaker 5: He's been incredible in Detroit though, it been really good,
and he had some really good times and with the Rams.
Speaker 3: Right, but remember he was he was thrown in like,
hey here, we'll put golf in there too.
Speaker 5: Now that was a great trade for both sides, right, Yeah,
and they both they went, they went a Super Bowl
of the Rams.
Speaker 4: And then they the Lions are relevant for the first
time ever, you know, beyond relevant. Yeah, they're legit. There's
some legit teams in the NFC. AFC is a crapshoot.
Speaker 3: Darnold completing seventy one point of his passes nine point
nine yards per attempt, which I think is best in
the NFL. So hitting a ton of big plays, seventeen touchdowns,
six interceptions.
Speaker 4: Again, another guy that was left for for dead. I
can't do it. I can't play it, and those like it.
Speaker 3: Just if you play in bad organizations like the Jets,
that's kind of what happens.
Speaker 4: Somebody's better. And I know the Colts and the Patriots
are kind of the AFC.
Speaker 5: They're kind of emerging as some of the really good
powerhouses in the AFC. But somebody better emerge as a
top dog. We're gonna find ourselves watching the Chiefs playing
the Super Bowl again.
Speaker 7: Don't you put that on me?
Speaker 4: Ain't I was eye bawling those last night.
Speaker 3: They're the third team in their division right now. But okay,
by two games.
Speaker 4: I hated.
Speaker 8: I hated to pull forget against the Jake's Chargers last night.
But because the Steelers lost, Ravens are one game back
in the AFC North to Oh, it's gotta be the
same teams, guys.
Speaker 4: I don't want to see that. I don't either happen
right now.
Speaker 3: You're looking at You're looking at Patriots, Bills, Steelers, Colts, Broncos, Chargers,
and I don't know who had had the tiebreaker between
the Chiefs and Jags, but they would be the last
team in have.
Speaker 4: They played yet? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Then oh the Jags didn't Jack, Yes, the Jacks have
the top Kansas City would be out right now.
Speaker 4: That doesn't doesn't doesn't mean anything. They just lost their
last time out there.
Speaker 3: They're going to be The Chiefs lost their last time
out like to the Bill, So it's not like they're
like they've won four games in a row. So I
know we all assume it's inevitable because it's happened so
many you're.
Speaker 5: Going to be a championship game. Sorry, I don't want that.
I'm just telling you what's gonna happen. Don't be mad
at me.
Speaker 4: All right, here's a bet. Yeah, if the Chiefs.
Speaker 3: Make the ASC championship game, I've got to pay your
next registration at elite whatever that is.
Speaker 4: If they don't make it, I get how much is
that box in my hair right there? Like that box
that's a big box? How much? Yeah? I get five
of those same price cost the Goods deal if the
Chiefs make it.
Speaker 3: If the Chiefs make it, like you're saying, then I
pay your next registration for whatever you do at a league.
Speaker 4: This isn't even money. This is not an even money
bet though.
Speaker 3: Okay, however many whatever the equivalent boxes of my highest to.
Speaker 4: That, Okay, they got to be like what plus eight
hundred to make the FC championship right now?
Speaker 3: Hold on, you can't say it fully throated, full throat
and then try to go back on it. You're flip
flopping like a politician up.
Speaker 4: Here, sir. That's what gambling picks are. Oh my gosh, prediction.
Speaker 7: Wait, so you're saying right now to make the SC champion.
If he just said it, he said it, I just
told happen is that they don't make the playoffs.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought they would be looking a lot worse
at this point in the year. They started out great
this and by great I mean bad.
Speaker 4: Caleb Williams and Chiefs and he won't even bet all right.

I had him in my bag and I saw your
your back was hurting, and I said, hey, here you go, man,

of toss him to the side like some guy, just
some chip.

That was unnecessary.
Speaker 5: Play Yeah, why don't you go why don't you go
get a deal with the mouse and then you can start.
Speaker 7: Why don't you go post more? Patrick Mahomes highlights.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, here's every L s U play but injury.
But we got it. We lost our coach, we lost
the game. You don't have to do all this.
Speaker 7: Why are we also acting like Bama hasn't historically dominated.
Speaker 4: The recently recently recent history.
Speaker 7: Here in recent history. But still I don't know why
we're acting like.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's beat him for the third time in a round,
like you could have put LSU lost third in a row,
like yeah, and you have to put l L LS.
Speaker 4: No, you have to do all that.
Speaker 5: It's not a fan chosen to put us at the
night game like all season long. Now you're gonna kick us.
Mm hmm that's rude.
Speaker 4: But also like next time LS who plays Alabama? Like
play better so they can get those LS off there.
Speaker 5: I can't wait three years from now they're gonna make
a host called al lao lao Alabama.
Speaker 3: Well, we don't play them every year, three l's anymore? Whatever,
I don't well, not guaranteed, not anymore. They're not one
of the three permanent.
Speaker 4: That's right. I hate that you might remember who the
three permanent are. I got it.
Speaker 7: I think Arkansas, Ole miss in Florida.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wish for Florida.
Speaker 7: Wait, so it's not Florida, Arkansas, A and M.
Speaker 4: And all miss that Golden boot about trophy. Do you
think l s U knows where that is right now?
Like they have it? Do you think they know where
it is? The closet probably probably got out today. Lou
got out today. Yeah, they get it out once a
year for the for the Arkansas Week. Yeah.
Speaker 5: The game that they put a eleven is the one
you're going to schedule us every year for sweet.
Speaker 4: It's at eleven a lot too, mm hmm. They can't
lose this one, boys, you can't lose this one technically,
can no? I can't.
Speaker 7: I mean you got to score a touchdown. Somebody other
than your kicker has.
Speaker 4: To score right as good as as good as our
defense can be.
Speaker 3: And certainly again they they tried everything they could to
bail out the offense in Tuscaloosa, Arkansas can do one
thing and his score I can't stop anybody.
Speaker 4: But they haven't met this offense yet.
Speaker 5: When does springk uh? When's this press conference today? I
mean that's gonna be the big story. Obviously, we haven't
even really talked about the potential of going forward because
we've been talking about the game today.
Speaker 4: But like.
Speaker 5: After the decision during the game, is it van Buren?
I mean, it's kind of like the same the conversation
we were having.
Speaker 4: After the game and had said like he hadn't put
that thought into it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I'm sure, but it's gonna have to be
decided now, like because you got to go to practice, right.
Speaker 4: It starts tomorrow, But that's it's the same conversation. I
would assume it it's going to be.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would assume it has to be too, and
we can get into more of the reasoning why and
everything tomorrow, I guess after.
Speaker 4: He announces it and talk a little bit about us
uh at that point.
Speaker 5: But like, yeah, it's the same conversation that we had
when Chuck replaced Rattler. Right, it's like kind of you
kind of got to make the move. You did it,
so let's see how it plays out. So yeah, it
was it was time.
Speaker 4: Certainly. Hm, that'll be a big press conference. Huh uh.
First question or second question?
Speaker 3: It'll be top three, yes, second, somebody will ask about
in general the game.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: First, yeah, man, if you'd have told me after we
got home from Clemson that you'd be playing Arkansas at
eleven forty five and Van Buren might be your starting
quarterback because Nsmyer got.
Speaker 4: Benched and you're five and four, five and four, I've
been like, you're a liar. Clemson's good, and Dama just
lost the Florida State and Clemson just beat Florida State.
