Speaker 1: All Star Toyota presents Off the Bench with Jacob Hester
and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 2: Okay, here we go where.
Speaker 1: The plays get broken down and science gets denied the
Bench Our two of Off the Bench Live from the
Raising Kine Studio.
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in our number two of ot B.
Here live from the Raizy Canes Studio. Jake Flannelandro Tete.
Speaker 2: All here with you. How's it going over there?
Speaker 3: You've got a laptop, a screen and an iPad with
a Bluetooth mouse and set up you've got over there
and no book.
Speaker 2: We'll pin the paper all right.
Speaker 3: Eventually.
Speaker 2: Well, and it dreared as well.
Speaker 3: Basically just looks like he went to the Skymall magazine
back in the day and he's got all the stuff.
I don't know if we're using it just yet, so
eventually we'll get there. It's okay, can you help with
the clips?
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, I gotta find the clips. All right.
Speaker 3: While he's doing that, let's take a look at Week
eleven in college football. For the second week in a row.
A game that we talked about in the offseason is
not one that we're really going to talk about here
during the week as much and that is Penn State.
They took on Ohio State last week. This week at
home against Indiana, Indiana a fourteen and a half point
favorite on this one on the road. The Hoosiers fourteen
and a half point favorite on the road against Penn State,
a team that was in every pole a top ten
team in the preseason, and they are oh and five
in the Big Ten.
Speaker 4: Five is college football. Man, it's been a wild year.
Nobody had this one No.
Speaker 2: Five.
Speaker 4: That's right. It all started when they got beat. Deshaun
Foster lists UCLA team. Yeah, because the Organ game is
a great game. Yeah, it really was. I don't know
how things can change so fast. They may even even
give of a coach like I just don't know how.
I guess their quarterbacks are right, yeah, Drey Olly, Yeah,
he's out of it. He's out.
Speaker 2: I'm assuming their backup has not been performing very well.
Speaker 3: Team's not performing well. They got no juice, they didn't
have any.
Speaker 2: They didn't have a Frank Wilson step up.
Speaker 3: Well they got I mean, they're negative and the juice meter.
I don't know if you watching that game last week
against Ohio State did not so Indiana, who might be
the best team in the country, at least playing like
it now. If they played Ohio State ten times, I'm
not saying they'd win six, but they're playing like the
best team in the country right now. On the road.
Fourteen and a half point favor. Let's go to Startville, Mississippi.
There we go number five Georgia taking on the Bulldogs Georgia.
This number went up.
Speaker 2: It was eight.
Speaker 3: Yesterday, now nine and a half in favor of the
Georgia Bulldogs.
Speaker 2: Tricky spot, I think what definitely tricky line.
Speaker 4: Certainly in Missisippi State, you find only you you won one,
pulled one out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you've been in like all of them.
Speaker 2: I think it's safe to say that. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I like the points there. You like taking the point
Missippi State in the points on that one. If you're
looking at a gambling line, do I think Missippi State
is gonna win?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 4: Probably not, just because they haven't really they proved it
one time, but they've been close. They've been in every
I think they've been a pleasant surprise to everybody in the.
Speaker 3: SEC this year.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Your guy, that's my guy, Jeff LEVI shout out to
my guy Blake shaping through one great truthport evangel they
can spend it. B Yu Texas Tech College Game Day,
Big twelve, in love it, in love it.
Speaker 2: Let's go guns up.
Speaker 3: If you shoot a Texas writer, Texas Tech ten and
a half point favorite. Vegas hates BYU And look, e
YU probably hates Vegas. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: I get it. Yeah, they were I get it.
Speaker 5: They were underdogs at home the other week is it
to Utah? Yeah, and then they were the undefeated team
they were at home, they wind up beating Utah out.
Speaker 3: There were dogs against Iowa State.
Speaker 5: Right, and I was think was banged up at the time,
Like we know, they lost their two starting corners. I'm
taking the points with BYU and this one.
Speaker 3: What's the line and a half for Tech?
Speaker 6: Probably because it's.
Speaker 2: Yeah for sure, but Darren Morris has been banged up.
Speaker 3: UYU just keeps like getting slender and all they've done
is win every game. Now, Texas Tech could win this game,
there would be zero shock zero but like ten and
a half, just these lines against BYU and they've proven
them wrong every single time. It feels like.
Speaker 4: Wonder, wonder what uh, let's pull up? What do I
us record versus spreaders this year, it's I mean, it's.
Speaker 5: Got to be pretty good because they've been the underdog
multiple times when they're undefeated. So yeah, and Baron Morton's
been banged up for Tech. Yeah, if he gets knocked
out of this game, the guy filled in for him,
a Hammond, he's done for the year.
Speaker 3: So and I think LJ. Martin, running back for BYU,
is coming back in this one. I believe he's almost
eight hundred yards. One of the better running backs in
the country. Baron Backmeyer at quarterback wearing number forty seven
should come with a neck roll. It doesn't. But he's
been really good as a freshman. He hasn't really had
any freshman moments. And the more you get down the road,
you're only going to continue to get better.
Speaker 6: There's six and two against the spread.
Speaker 3: By the way, it's incredible, pretty good. Yeah, rushing yards
BYU fifteenth in the country, points against sixteenth in the country.
You run the ball and you play great defense, you're
gonna with a lot of games.
Speaker 6: LSU's three and five against.
Speaker 3: The spread ude.
Speaker 2: Gross. Great teams cover.
Speaker 6: Alabama's five and three.
Speaker 4: Lane Kiffen apologized one game for not covering didn't he
probably we don't want that around here.
Speaker 3: You take it, uh, Texas A and M and Missouri
Number three, Texas A and M traveling to number twenty
two Missouri, Texas A and M a six and a
half point favorite on the road against the Tigers.
Speaker 4: You know, I like that line. Missouri's due for a
big loss here at home. Why they do for a
big loss? They haven't had one yet this year, That's
why they're dude, I know. But what makes you say that?
Is it just because you're because I don't like Missouri?
Speaker 2: Because I don't like them. I don't want them to win?
All right? Do you have any reason I thinks?
Speaker 7: And is?
Speaker 2: I think TEXANAM is really good? That's what is it?
Six and a half?
Speaker 4: Yeah, you said that's a tough Line's I feel like
Vegas really knocked out of the park this week with
some of these numbers making it make it difficult to choose.
Speaker 3: On its Yeah, I'm pretty good at it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yuh h No, I think the way Marcel Reid's playing,
I hmm.
Speaker 2: I take Texas A and M.
Speaker 3: How you're feeling about A and M Missouri Missou with
two the.
Speaker 5: Two games of Missou's lost have been close, close games.
I mean Vandy Alabamavandy was a toss up Alabama. I
think Drink got a little bit ahead of himself. But
there is a good team, and I mean we talked
about it. LSU ran the ball pretty well in the
first half. They just stopped doing it. I'm mott Hearty
is one of the better running backs in college football.
Like Missouri can can play mistake for you. They can
run the ball, like they can make this a game.
Speaker 3: Gonna have their young quarterback starting this one. Rebula gonna
be out for the year, so I'm gonna have a
new quarterback. But he did have a bye week.
Speaker 2: See, I didn't realize that what happened to Purpula he.
Speaker 3: Got hurt against Uh Well, I don't watch said on anybody,
even Missouri players.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you bet you. You make a good point about
the running game because Lu did. Lu was running the
ball really good and we're really not good at running
the ball. And they did run the ball pretty well
against Texas A and M Now they did some things
they had we hit, We did things we hadn't done
all season. But yeah, that running back for Missouri is
a real deal. But that's an I didn't realize they
were starting on quarterback. So definitely let's take A and
M on that one. I'll just I just wrapped you
all into my pick there by saying, let's take it.
Speaker 3: Well, No, I'm going to Missouri with the points Oregon
in Iowa. I love this one. I was six and
two and four to one in the Big Ten.
Speaker 2: Oh love Iah so much?
Speaker 3: This is This is in Kinnick Stadium as well. Oregon
probably lower than we thought they'd be in the initial
College Football Playoff ranking. They're coming in at nine, six
and a half point favorite. I mean I was lost,
as are a close loss against a rival, and I always
stayed by field goal and by five to Indiana when
Indiana's been beating the hell out of everybody else?
Speaker 2: Is Iowa somehow? Did they?
Speaker 4: Like we talked about Tom Brady yesterday cloning a dog?
Do they just clone their players every year? They're the
same team every year?
Speaker 5: Right, Yes, thought about Iowall year they're six and two,
number twenty in.
Speaker 2: They're the same team every year. They just win games.
It's unbelievable. Yep, every year, every single it's the exact
same team.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you got a lot of George Kittle's out there,
a lot of them.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 7: It was a close game versus Indiana, close game versus
Penn State.
Speaker 2: But that's a dub.
Speaker 8: I don't know.
Speaker 6: I might might take that.
Speaker 3: The total forty and a half the total, honestly, I
might take the under on that one forty and a half.
Speaker 5: It's got a pretty good defense as well.
Speaker 2: I mean the organ scores points, right, yeah.
Speaker 5: But Iowa's defense is always I mean in at Iowa,
they just played really good defense at home.
Speaker 4: Okay, I like it. Let's go Iowa on the winning,
straight up m same team though, as they had in
twenty twelve.
Speaker 3: Do you remember Matt Roth when we played against Iowa. Yep,
that's the Tea's had all the tats, right, yeah, yeah,
it's a team full of Matt Ross. They all don't
yeah yeah, they all don't have maybe the tats, but
they look like Matt Roth and play like Matt Roth.
Go Wol was a linebacker. They had Chad Greenway.
Speaker 2: Way, good player played for the Vikings.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yep, just a bunch of Chad Greenway them eleven
Chad Greenways on defense.
Speaker 3: He hit me really hard on them. Yeah, he's a
hit concrete head a little late, I mean rough in
the past of these days, like I think he mixed
concrete put in the bottom of his helmet and put
it on convinced, like every time you hit him, Like
do I have a concussion?
Speaker 2: Mm hmm? Or am I seeing three that helmet? That
street legal? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Think you I guess some nos in that helmet. That's
not a street legal bud h All right, shout out
to Matt Roth and Chad Greenway and and Ryan Blaga
crew tape. No, no, you don't get in there, rints
washing and repeat the Iowa player.
Speaker 2: And they're gonna be hovering around that twenty in the country.
Speaker 3: Living there now, Like it brings up a great conversation.
If you're an Iowa football fan, you're never gonna win it.
I don't know what you want, but you're never gonna suck. Yeah,
you don't want to win all of them if you're
if you live in Iowa like you're gonna be. You're
gonna be ten to two, nine and three.
Speaker 2: If you want learning moments, what would you rather be?
Speaker 3: Let me win a championship and maybe the next four
years are bad, then win a championship.
Speaker 2: I don't know, would you rather be Iowa or Auburn?
Speaker 3: Whole question?
Speaker 2: Whole question.
Speaker 7: To go back to the A and M Missouri game
real quick though. The total there's forty seven and a half.
Speaker 3: On which won the A and M game? Yeah? Do
you I feel like I go over on that smash?
Speaker 6: The scoring a lot.
Speaker 3: Of points one type situation.
Speaker 6: There's a M.
Speaker 7: Scoring a lot of points this season, Missouri is scoring
at least twenty.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they got it.
Speaker 4: Well, they got a freshman quarterback playing then, Oh who.
Speaker 7: Is Blake shaping out?
Speaker 2: No for? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I got them mixed up all the time.
Uh but but the backup came in against Vanderbilt and
was spinning it. He had a touchdout last. He's like
he was a highly tiuted high school guy, like top
ten quarterback guys. So they really like him.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Sometimes you juice to it. Sometimes you're too young to know.
Speaker 4: Sometimes you just gotta see what you got, yu, see
if you've got a spark. Yeah, see if you got
a spark, though.
Speaker 3: I mean, you don't know what you don't know? You
see what you got?
Speaker 2: You're right?
Speaker 4: Is anything like Tyler Shuck they might, they might win
by eighteen. I hope shocked as well.
Speaker 2: I do.
Speaker 3: Notre Dame plays Navy this weekend, twenty five and a
half point favorite. Next, do you want to hear Notre
dames remaining schedule?
Speaker 2: Nope, sure, I'll just close my ears. You tell the listeners.
Speaker 3: Navy at home on the road against pitt Actually pretty
good football team seven to two, Syracuse at home and
at Stanford, and they're gonna make the college football playoff
because they beat twenty three to USC.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Gross, yep, and we gotta watch it as football fans.
Speaker 2: Oll if you if you have ESPN by that point.
Speaker 3: You gotta watch it. I might have to cover it.
You might have to cover it. Oh yeah, yeah gross dude.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So not only but good quality losses though, yeah.
Speaker 2: Good hard fought at.
Speaker 3: Let's don't let's don't look at the fact that Notre
Dame lost to Miami, who has Louisville to Louisville beat.
Miami has one loss and Notre Dames multiple spots ahead
of them. Don't look at that. That that getting away
of a good story. Two loss. Notre Dame, who lost
to Miami is ahead of one lost Louisville who beat Miami.

Speaker 3: They were the five seed, little minor upset against the

took down number one seed Arkansas, so little shakeups there.
How about that.
Speaker 2: Let's go LSU Soccer.
Speaker 3: Let's go coach Sean Hudson, Let's go gollu everything. Let's
see LSU plays Mississippi State. So five versus eight seed,
just like everybody predicted, You've got Vanderbilt and Georgia the
two three on the other side of the bracket. Let's
go LSU Soccer, Go Tigers. Getting into the NFL, Rashid
Shaheed now Seattle Seahawks receiver, he said, I'm here to stay.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 3: So somebody on that expiring contract already kind of saying, hey,
I want to be here. I'm excited, So we'll figure
something out after the season ends. I know I'm a
free agent, but he views this as a long term announcement.
Speaker 4: And I can tell you that like when you get
a little change of scenery, especially after you've had.
Speaker 3: You've been traded. You were traded before, right yeah?
Speaker 2: Uh, well yeah I was traded, right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So when you get traded, yep, is that something
that y'all talk about immediately, like, hey, if it works
out here, we'll signing to since you are you already
had years left on your deal, right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, Yeah, mine was a little bit different, right, uh.
And I was traded to Oakland. They didn't know what
they were doing. I didn't play very well, so you know,
it wasn't a great situation. But I could tell you
like when who plays, yeah, nobody does when he gets
he gets traded from New Orleans, like it's it's a
change of scenery. Like you go into like Seattle's so
much different than New Orleans obviously. Yeah, I don't need
to explain any of that. You go there and let
me tell you the facilities there our first class. Oh yeah,
it's right on the lake, beautiful, like that whole area
is gorgeous, Like it is a really good, Like it's
easy to get recruited there, and it's easy to like
fall in love with that place too when you get
there because and at first, like they do everything, they're
very player first organization, So people like to be there
with with Pete Carroll when he was doing all the same,
like he was a player's coach, and that whole organization
is a player's first. So I can see being enamored
with it coming from a place you didn't have success,
you had coach Atternal Dennis Allen was your coach for
goodness sake, and then you're going to place that is successful.
They have a great quarterback they have there, who's on
the MVP talks. They are a really good team. Like
I can see the intrigue from him being like, wow,
yeah this is awesome, Yeah this is different, this is
what a really cool franchise. Oh it looks like he's like, yeah,
I don't care, I'll take a pay cut to stay here.
Speaker 3: You talk to you talked to GM John Snyder for
like five minutes. I told you I saw John Snyder
up in the press box at LSU. He was here scouting,
which like gms just don't go scout college games. But
he was and like, I know John because I went
on a free agent visit and met him for like
a day and I was like, Hey, John, what's going on?
I was about to shoot. It's like, Hester, what's up, dude?
Get dashed me up, gives me on the side.
Speaker 2: What up my guy?
Speaker 3: It's like it's flint here. I was like, Yeah, he's
actually sitting in the north end zone. Oh man, I'd
love to see him telling him I'm up here.
Speaker 2: I love that guy so much.
Speaker 3: So like the GM field there compared to you know, Mickey,
A little different.
Speaker 2: What what are you talking about?
Speaker 3: A little different. He doesn't love bubblegum as much as Mickey.
Speaker 2: He likes good draft picks though, that he does way
more than Mickey.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've had some hits. Huh.
Speaker 2: I think I thought.
Speaker 4: I think they're actually in a bidding work for Veley
Live in Seattle.
Speaker 3: Thirty seven. Let's make sure we got that number right.
I feel like I'm short changing him a couple of yards.
Speaker 2: He might have thirty eight or thirty nine. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think Nick through thirty seven out there and we
just kind of ran with it. Nick would no, he
wouldn't you know, Sometimes like when you stow a number
out there.
Speaker 2: It's worth it should have been a third runner.
Speaker 3: It's my bad. Thirty thirty nine fullbacks have more receiving
yards than that at this point in the year.
Speaker 5: Five catches.
Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure if I'm just telling y' all this,
If Scott Matt Locke, who plays d tackle for the
Chargers and then also plays full back, has more receiving
I'm looking it up right now than a man you
traded a fourth round pick four Scott math is one
catch for three yards but a touchdown. Scott Matt Locke
he tackle more receiving touchdowns.
Speaker 5: O vill let's go.
Speaker 7: I'm really glad that we kept him and traded his
shakeet away.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, nobody's gonna take him.
Speaker 2: Like seriously, I just asked, guy says, does Foster still play?
Speaker 3: Ye? Got a uniform and everything they forget. Sometimes I
think that the coach is forgotten.
Speaker 5: I mean, it's hard to get on the field when
you have a guy like Jawant Johnson in front of.
Speaker 4: You, super productive to rebuild your guys, rebuild. I think
we should see what we got with Foster. I think
it's time let them cook.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so new Orleans Saints going on the road against
the Carolina Panthers five and four football team. I don't
know if anybody knows that. Pack know that, but Memphis
Hester knows that. I don't know if anybody else knows that.
Speaker 4: We got to move on. Let's move on to week ten.
Let's not stick you.
Speaker 3: You gave me so much. Hell would the Giants beat
the Chargers?
Speaker 2: Yep? Well, because in fairness, that's the worst loss. It is.
Speaker 3: It is well the Browns.
Speaker 4: Loss, though I don't know. Saints didn't beat the Browns.
They beat the Giants.
Speaker 2: That's fair. That's fair. I got no rebuttal on and everything.
Speaker 3: Carolina five and a half point favorite on this one.
Speaker 2: Mm hmmm, probably not enough.
Speaker 3: Again Carolina, it is kind of hard to pinpoint what's
going well for them because they don't look because they
don't look good. But they're five and four. Now, they've
been outscored. I think their point difference is I think
it's minus thirty five. Yeah, like they've scored one seventy
and giving up two oh five and they're five and four.
Speaker 4: We're just a really competent football team. They're not good,
they're just competent. They throw their cleats out there. They
do their job. They're not like exceptionally good at anything.
They're rookie wide receivers playing well, they're running backs playing great.
Who had that on the Bengo card Doubtle just like
dominating Taylor's favorite cowboy Bryce Young. I mean he's playing fine.
He's making some really bad throws, but then he just
does enough to get outside the pocket, you know, make
a first ount with his feet. Yeah, go through his progressions,
hit xavierly get for one hundred and eighty one total yards.
Speaker 3: They lose to the Jags and the Cardinals to start
out the season. They beat the Falcons thirty to nothing.
Then they come back on the road and they get
house forty two to thirteen by the Patriots. Then they
win three games in a row against the Dolphins, Cowboys,
and Jets, and they lose to the Bills. And then
they come back on the road against the Packers.
Speaker 2: Dolphins, Cowboys, Jets. What a what a run though?
Speaker 4: Yeah, you'd like to see that run on the schedule,
Oh for sure, for Sureah. I don't think anybody's mistaken
Carolina Panthers for a good NFL football team. They're just
they're just all right, and they've they've come out on
top of some close games. Yeah, the Packers, who knows
what they are? They beat the Falcons thirty to nothing.
Speaker 2: Thirty? Who are the Falcons?
Speaker 3: A team based in Atlanta? He's not very good, all right,
not very consistent. They are a super confusing team, no idea.
Speaker 5: That was the game we were talking about. The Falcons
did not get past the Panthers thirty yard line all
game long.
Speaker 4: And the Panthers London's playing, Actually, yeah, his best football
of his career.
Speaker 2: I don't know, are they are?
Speaker 4: I feel like, yeah, Umber, I feel like the the
Falcons are the NFC version of the Texans. They're the same,
same squad.
Speaker 5: Well, and what have we asked about both quarterbacks? Like
you could say, what are the Falcons? My question? What
is Michael Pennocks?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Because sometimes he looks.
Speaker 5: Great, sometimes he looks awful like that.
Speaker 4: I mean, it's I don't know, it's it's crazy to
me that a player with that talent that Michael PENNOCKX
has and c J. Stroud for that matter, can look
so good one week and then look like the worst
quarterback in the NFL another week. How do you go
from being so good first round pick, and I think
everybody's saying like, he's still a good quarterback and he
has the potential, but you have you go through these
periods like man, that's.
Speaker 2: A great throat, great throw, great though, great read, touchdown, and.
Speaker 4: Then all of a sudden, one game just throwing it
in the dirt, boned in the dirt.
Speaker 2: One game that I watched CJ.
Speaker 4: Stroud play a couple of weeks ago, that was the
worst NFL quarterbacking I've ever seen.
Speaker 2: Seem some bad ye huh watch justin Fields this year.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, that's true too, and I was like, this
is the same guy that can throw for four hundred
yards any given week, but he cannot hit a receiver
in the in the flat.
Speaker 2: I don't know, it's wild. NFL is weird. Those two
teams are weird.
Speaker 7: I feel like it's kind of weird this season though,
like generally just I mean, just like the Panthers are weird.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Bills are not what we thought they were going
to be.
Speaker 7: Like, I don't know, I just feel like everything's kind
of weird football.
Speaker 4: In the NFL. There's not like one team or one
person that sticks out. Yeah, try to pick a Heisman
winner right now. Let's do this on the other side
of the break. Let's let's let's get our predictions about
who we think currently, who are gonna Who are you gonna.
Speaker 3: Go with NFL MVP and Heisman or just NFL.
Speaker 2: Let's do Heisman too like that? Can I do he Uh?
Don't no risk it. I don't know.

Go to Russellpools dot com. All right, Matthew, NFL MVP,
take it away, sir.
Speaker 9: H.
Speaker 4: Well, it's really more of a debate type situation. I
think that. Uh, we talked a lot about Sam Darnald. Yeah,
it's definitely gonna be a quarterback. I don't think so.
Not my not my pick now your pick right now?
For me, the the m v P is Matthew Stafford.
Speaker 10: Uh.
Speaker 4: People to watch for me is Sam Darnold, Daniel Jones.
Before last week, I don't know. I still don't know
how good the Indianapolis cults are. They still like for me,
they're they're approve it to me every single week, specifically
Daniel Jones. But don't look now, some people are just spoiled, right,
some fan base are just spoiled. We've heard that before,
l s U. You're spoiled New England Patriots. Drake May
don't look get ready for him to be on the
m v P m v P talks.
Speaker 5: He goes, he goes into Tampa and pulls that all
oh yeah, big game, big game, big game for him.
Speaker 2: Baker honestly, yep, man that he has.
Speaker 4: Drake May has emerged as the as the draft class
last year, the twenty twenty four QB Draft class, six
first round quarterbacks.
Speaker 2: He's he has emerged as the top guy this year.
Jade Daniels. Of course that we get it.
Speaker 4: Can't unsee what we saw last year injuries, so he's
kind of removed himself from the conversation for right now.
But certainly the best quarterback that's still playing each week
right now out of that draft class by far, and
so I get ready for his name to continue to
do that.
Speaker 2: So you just you got to look at the.
Speaker 4: Best player usually on the best teams, because they're making
an impact on the you know, of course they have
the stats and they're playing at a high level, but
they're having an impact on the final scoreboard.
Speaker 2: So, Sam Donald, the Seahawks are really good.
Speaker 4: I don't see them like ever being out of a
game this season because they are such a sound team.
They're gonna win a lot of football games. They're gonna
be in the playoffs, probably make a little run. So
Sam Donald will in the conversation Stafford and the Rams
really good. Stafford's playing at I mean he's playing He's
never played any better in his career. And by Drake
may look out right now. So I guess I'm gonna
have to make a decision though, because that's the point
of the exercise, this is this is the way. So
should I go Stafford? Chuck Drake, I'm gonna go with
Sam Donald.
Speaker 2: She not?
Speaker 3: You didn't say Juan.
Speaker 2: First? Okay?
Speaker 3: Now if she alignman can't win. And so I take
Caesar out, all right, So final answer, I'm gonna go
Sam Donald. Now, Sam Donald, and that goes against everything
I was just saying.
Speaker 4: About Matthew Stafford. But I think that I think the
Seahawks are that good. I did too, I did too.
I think they are as complete as anybody.
Speaker 6: Alandra, Yeah, I was going with.
Speaker 7: Sam Donald because he's just been putting up some pretty
good numbers the last couple of weeks.
Speaker 4: And none of it's by accident, right yeah, just playing
really good.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Also, like I hope he keeps it up because Shaheed's
on my fantasy team and hopefully you know, he wasn't
giving me much with the Saints, but we'll see. I
kept him on purpose to see. But I was gonna
go Sam Donald. He's looking really good and he's like
a really big piece to that team specifically, So him
or Drake May, Okay, I like that.
Speaker 2: I mean you know, I didn't even I didn't mention.
Speaker 4: I didn't mention Baker either, but like, up until they
lost two weeks ago, they had a kind of like
out aside, out of mind because again the.
Speaker 5: Matchup between Baker and Drake May this weekend.
Speaker 2: Mhm JJ, So Baker for you, right.
Speaker 5: No, I would love to go Matthew Stafford.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna love for Matthew to win.
Speaker 5: The Colts have lo only lost two games all year, okay,
and everyone's going to say yes to the Steelers. In
the Rams, Daniel Jones turned the ball over. Now the
defense is stopped the running game, I'm going Jonathan Taylor.
I mean this guy is on pace for twenty touchdowns.
If he keeps it up, he could approach two thousand yards.
Maybe this is because I thought Saquon Barkley should have
ran away with this award a year ago and didn't.
But you want to talk about somebody who is the
engine that makes that offense go, Like, I get it,
Daniel Jones is playing well. Jonathan Taylor has twelve touchdowns already,
He's averaging almost six yards per carry, and in the
games that they lost, forty five yards rushing and seventy
six yards rushing. Like when he's on that offense is
hard to stop. So I'm actually gonna go Jonathan Taylor.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good pick. It really is, like it's
hard for running back to win it.
Speaker 3: Jonathan Taylor. It is my choice as well. Eight hundred
and ninety five yards, twelve touchdowns, all the things Tata
just said there. If they keep winning, if they keep
doing what they look like they're going to do, he's
going to be the big reason why he finds the
end zone and the elite level. And I'm gonna go
non quarterback. And if I went another non quarterback, what
about Jackson Smith and Jigba by far the leading receiver
in the NFL as far as yards nine and forty
eight yards already on the year. Now he only has
four touchdowns. That will probably hurt him in the MVP conversation,
but he is separating himself like Jamar is right there.
But there's a big difference when your team's playing as
well as Seattle compared to Cincinnati is doing it with
Joe receiver one MVP.
Speaker 4: It's hard for receiver because there's got to be somebody's
hand that the ball is coming out of the throw.
Speaker 2: To that guy.
Speaker 5: I think Calvin won Offensive Player of the Year.
Speaker 6: But no, no wide receiver has ever won.
Speaker 2: A hot AP award.
Speaker 3: I mean running backs don't win it either.
Speaker 8: No, I think.
Speaker 3: LT's won MVPM.
Speaker 2: I never wanted when I think was the last I
was so good.
Speaker 5: To Jake's point, though, my class, a lot of people mentioned, oh,
this is gonna help Rashid Chiheds so much. It is
that trade is gonna help Jackson Smith and Jig. But
more I think he takes the top off of defenses
and Jackson Smith and Jigma lives in that fifteen.
Speaker 3: Fifty to the guy calm place for Seattle call plays
for New Orleans last year. He knows this player, he
knows what he brings, and he wanted to go get
him and traded two draft choices for him.
Speaker 5: I think she's going to open everything up for.
Speaker 6: Offensive Rookie of the Year though.
Speaker 7: You were saying, Matthew Colden that was your prediction. What
about Tyler Warren? I mean, we talked about the Colts
and like for a title. Yeah, he is balling out,
So I don't know. I would put that on my
little watch list if I was looking at Offensive Rookie
of the Year Warren in Uh, yeah, well.
Speaker 5: He's gonna have to gonna have to do a lot
more now.
Speaker 3: I think Tyler Warren might be Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good question with they, I mean, because
the sexy pick would be Jackson Dart.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, to to win that one. But that's just fun, right,
that's the sect. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 4: Kind of depends on how they're gonna finish off the season,
but yeah, but when it's fun though, it's really fun.
Speaker 3: Even when he's in the tent and the coach and
Kim Scattaby are trying to get him out of the
tent to get back into the game. All right, we'll
