Starting point is 00:01:02 It is what it is. I'm Treasure Wilson, aka Stap Baby, along with your host, Mace, and Cam. And today we are joining with our analyst, Michael Irvin. Killer was good, man. Michael Irvin, how you doing, man? It's been an amazing weekend. An amazing weekend.
Starting point is 00:01:24 Are you referring to? mention me. Because, you know, Cam's asking, are you referring to him? Because I don't know how his weekend has been, but my weekend's been outstanding. So I appreciate you acknowledge you, man. I just have forgotten my name for me.
Starting point is 00:01:44 They've been calling me handsome lately. I know y'all I'm talking about that. Sorry about that. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Wait, man, I'm sorry about that. Hey. I forgot my name for a quick minute, man. What's that?
Starting point is 00:02:07 What's happening, Mike? How you, man? Yeah, I'm doing well, man. Have you not seen that dude this shit was funny? The dude that was, oh, he was like, you know, somebody told me, I didn't know the two people was a two-sum, and three people was a threesome. And then he said,
Starting point is 00:02:26 handsome is you know, nigger they use his hands sometimes, you know. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah, Mike. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:40 You're going to call. That's a great one, Mike. Mike in the White House. Good thing. Good thing. No God been calling me Hanson. Good thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Yeah, Mike. Get that nigga, Mike. That's a super pause. Ain't, ain't no guys been calling me handsome, man. I ain't been around no guys. My bad, man. You've been a long weekend for me, man. I'm doing good, everybody.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Yeah. He's doing good. Yeah, Mike. Hold them accountable, Mike. Yeah. Chuck and butter, boy. Well, happy to see everybody, but we got to talk about these games. Games came in hot with a lot of really close, but good games.
Starting point is 00:03:43 So we're going to start with the Eagles. The defending Super Bowl champs are out as the Eagles lost to the 49ers, 23 to 19. So first, Mike, what was your opinion on the game? And then how does this loss make you view the Eagles? This is what I think keeps football pure when you see this. There is no question that everybody or anybody with an iGate would sit and say, that's one of the most talented teams in the national football league. How to hell did that team not be able to defend their champions?
Starting point is 00:04:26 And we know how it is. We know what it is. It's not just about how talented you are. This is the ultimate team sport. You can have the greatest talent, but you're not playing together. You're not really together. You're talking about, oh, no, you're together. You have problems, and then you overcome,
Starting point is 00:04:46 and you have problems. You say you're overcome, but you never really overcame. And that's what happened. Here is the sadness of it. Still, like I said, has the best talent, basically any team in the national football league. San Fran was playing the third string team. Everybody's hurt on San Francisco School 49ers. So this should have been an easy victory for Philadelphia, and instead, it's an agonizing defeat, sending them home and not a chance to defend their
Starting point is 00:05:25 championship because all they talked about, we'll be ready when the playoffs come and they're just going to show. This ain't something you can just flick on like a light switch. Well, you'll have time to go and work with their light switch because you're home with the light switch now. That's over.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Yeah, this is, this was a real heartbreaking loss for, for Philadelphia. I know they didn't expect to go out here. But when, when we look back at this season, we have to pay attention to the key moment. And that was AJ Brown and the antics that he pulled on the sideline, the things that he was saying in the
Starting point is 00:06:00 locker room. And as much as I don't want to put it on one player, pause, I have to because when you give a team 13 points in the fourth quarter, that's really just the breaking down of a mental. And when you break down mentally, it's because you're no longer playing for each other. And when teams have been this disgruntled, you know, through the playoffs and a little bit through the season, it's hard to find that we're with all the fight for each other and the win and to win those plays play by play. And even with Sequin doing pretty good, you know, I'm also ready to just say Brock Purdy is not just a game manager. Whoever said that, got to bring that back because in this game, he shows that he's not just a game manager to me. And shout out to San Francisco. Yeah, first of all, I want to say, get healthy, George Kittles.
Starting point is 00:06:59 Over the holidays, I actually had liquid in my Achilles. And that shit, I couldn't walk for like four days. So I was like, damn, niggins who tear their Achilles or springing. That shit is some serious shit. I was fucked up for like four or five days because I had some fluid in my shit. So he's been playing with injury all year. So Kittles, I'm a big fan of his because he plays through injury as much as he can. So I want to give a big shout to him.
Starting point is 00:07:24 But look, Mason alluded to it. This has been going on with AJ since last season, not even this season. This season is just overloaded. He's always open. He says he's always open, but you're dropping the ball. We can't even really blame this on Jay-Ly. You ask for the ball. You dealt the ball two times or at least, it might have been three.
Starting point is 00:07:45 I may have at least two times and you dropped them to make the plays for y'all possibly to win the game. You're doing commercials, you're always open. When I looked at this commercial, he has a commercial, he's running on the treadmill saying I'm always open. I didn't even like that commercial because to me it was a shot at Jalen Hertz
Starting point is 00:08:04 to say he's not always open. Now, I could be digging too much into it saying, look, this is marketing for whatever commercial that was. But I'm just telling you as a football fan. I'm like, yeah, I don't think this is time to make that type of commercial being and you're not on the same page with your quarterback or maybe the organization for that fact. But this is solely to me on A.J. Brown, not just the stuff that May saluted to, you had opportunities to catch the ball and you drop the ball in key moments.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Even to the point where the coach runs down on you because you act like he dropped the ball. Get into argument with the coach. Coach runs down 20 yards down the sidelines to get in your face. and me like, nigga, I ain't dropped the ball. Foggin you're talking about now y'all are going back and forth on the sideline. This is just all the stuff that makes kind of alluded to, the season, and you two, Mike, to where it hasn't been
Starting point is 00:08:57 on the same page. Talent-wise, you're correct. On paper, you look at the team and say, God damn, these niggas should win the Super Bowl. But it's not meshing. Sometimes you have the best talent and it doesn't mesh. We alluded to this on other shows to where we see NBA teams try to put good teams together.
Starting point is 00:09:13 And it just doesn't work because you're trying to say, okay, we're going to stack the teams. We're going to have the best team. And it doesn't work. You know, this isn't baseball. Sometimes it doesn't work in baseball, but it's no salary cap in baseball. I remember the Yankees used to cheat and do it and say, yeah, we're going to get Derek G to not get him because he's a lifetime Yankee. Get Derek Jeter this tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Go get Alex Rodriguez. The Los Angeles Dodgers are actually doing that now with their players. They're stacking up paying everybody a billion dollars. You can't do you. that in football because of salary cups and basketball as well. But on paper, yes, this team should be at least going back to the Super Bowl if not winning it. But sometimes attitudes, personalities, everything doesn't mesh out. So you brought the, oh, go ahead, my God, because this, because this is what's going to happen. Now, all of your priors have to come up. Yeah, what I mean by
Starting point is 00:10:09 that like, okay, when you win a Super Bowl and he said, oh, this doesn't feel like I really wanted to feel. And then the next year, you're arguing that the coach out of the dropping passes because you, you see what I'm saying? All of those prior receipts, they put back on the table now and say, look at it, you know, so, you know, you were a problem. And I don't know who will see AJ Brown in Philadelphia again after this. You know, it's because there's something that, you know,
Starting point is 00:10:44 I will be surprised if we see that continue that situation. And what do you what do you guys think about Nick Serini making an excuse, making up an excuse for his drop passes in this loss? Well, you are, you know, and Troy, I mean, not Troy, but, but Tom Brady was talking about, you know, it's just the intensity of the moment and everything during the broadcast. And I would receive that had those receipts hadn't been out here. You see what I mean?
Starting point is 00:11:19 Now, it's just the intensity of the moment. Everybody wants to win and go win the championship. I can receive that. But when your receipts are out here saying, man, this Super Bowl ain't what I thought of it is. It's more about me, not the Super Bowl. So now, and maybe that's not just the intensity of the moment. Maybe that's, you know, you dropped the ball. I gave them to you.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Don't want to give me some more. What do you mean? Whatever. You know what I'm saying? It was something else. Because because if it would be the intensity of the moment, we must first have harmony in the direction that we're trying to get to. So that's why I say, okay, coach, I'm trying to win a Super Bowl.
Starting point is 00:12:08 and well, you already changed. You know what I'm saying? That's all. I love AJ Brown, but that's what's going to come back and buy him now with these situations. Yeah, you guys all brought up a lot of good points, and I feel like there is a lot of speculation
Starting point is 00:12:23 around AJ Brown right now, especially Kim, like you talked about what happened on the sideline, and then the drop passes, and then Mike, you bring up a great point because everybody's trying to figure out what will happen to him next. So we'll see.
Starting point is 00:12:35 I think you guys kind of have your predictions in for that. But moving along, now we're going to get into the bills. So the bills beat the Jags 27 to 24. Mike, what did you think of the bill's performance? When I looks over and that's one of the things I called. I knew the bills would win this game. But there were a lot of other reasons too. Now, first of all, offensively, the bills haven't seen anybody like Josh Allen.
Starting point is 00:13:01 And they're trying to kind of present Trevor Lawrence as Josh Allen. And I was like, not quite yet. No, no, no, not exactly. And Josh Allen, you know, he showed him a Josh Allen. He showed him something different at that time. And this I thought was important. He could not let Travel Lawrence be. No way you could go home when it's the first time that you can get through these playoffs
Starting point is 00:13:33 without having to play Patrick Mahomes with Marge. and Joe Burrow. That's going to be the statement because the reality is nobody will remember that you've already beat them in the regular season this year. All they'll say
Starting point is 00:13:50 is he didn't have to beat them in the playoffs when they count it most. So there's no way I knew he was going to lose to Trevor Lawrence. That's what makes this a whole serious process for Josh Allen. Because if there's any attack, not any chance of him getting the Super Bowl,
Starting point is 00:14:09 this will be the best chance. Because next year, I'm expecting some of the other big boys to be back in the playoffs. He has to take advantage of it. And he did in that game. Yeah, I would say when it comes to this game, I was kind of conflicted in this game
Starting point is 00:14:26 because you got home versus home, right? You got Jacksonville playing New York. I know Cam doesn't think this is New York, but I'm going to go ahead and say it's New York. I like the fact that. they snapped this 33-year losing streak most of all. That mean they haven't won since. I don't even remember what year that was 33 years ago.
Starting point is 00:14:47 But just to think about the four league changes in the fourth quarter, this was a really, really, really good game. And it just seemed like it came down to the same thing that's been coming down to most of the playoffs. And that's kickers either winning it or losing it. So we got to put some respect on these kickers, you know, name and stop acting like they just not a part of the football team. We need to start buying them Rolexes,
Starting point is 00:15:13 giving them Bentley's and stuff like this, because they're going to make the difference in these games, especially when these teams are playing down the wire the way they are. It seems like these kickers are becoming way more valuable than they have been in times past. So I'm looking forward to some outstanding contracts being given after this year, especially the kickers.
Starting point is 00:15:38 I don't know why you would give them outstanding contracts because they've been fucking up like a motherfucker this whole whole season. The last thing of kickers in is an outstanding contract. Because we giving kickers outskinned the contract. And these motherfucking, they're going to get that money. It ain't been no good kickers this thing.
Starting point is 00:15:57 They should be getting a pay cut. That's what the kickers should be getting is a pay motherfucking cut. If anything, But I will say this, big Josh Allen, nigger. Big, yo, listen, man. Josh Allen, I've never seen the 10-yard push-tush. Yo, my nigga, Josh Allen, this game, this game,
Starting point is 00:16:20 I don't know if, you know, if you watched this game, but if you didn't watch this game, anybody who didn't, just go watch the fourth quarter, man. Yeah. I watched this. Mace, you didn't watch the game, Mace. I know you didn't watch the game. You go watch the fourth quarter.
Starting point is 00:16:34 I'm not going to quit you. I believe you. Yo, listen, you know how in basketball we always talk about like, yo, football, you can't, it's not like basketball. You can't just take the ball as a team thing and everybody got to be involved in basketball. You could just get out to, Josh Allen did some basketball shit today. It was four, a fourth and one, Josh Allen said, yo,
Starting point is 00:17:04 Give me the fucking rock and move and did a 10-yard push to pause. I've never seen. Look, Jaylen Hurts and that niggins perfected it. You know what they do a decent job, Pittsburgh with it, with the brother Lee shove, all that shit. Listen, 10-yard push-push. Josh Allen Strong, 6-5, me niggins said, no. Like you said, Mike, his attitude was not this nigger,
Starting point is 00:17:28 not this, Travis Lord. Y'all niggas is trying to play games. Y'all niggas is playing games with my name at this point. You all are playing game my name. Move out my way. Move, nigga. Yo, that's what happened in the last four minutes. Not only that.
Starting point is 00:17:44 Not only that. Before even got to that situation with about two and some change left, it was first and ten. But the past, you know, Jacksonville had the number one pass rush in the NFL. So, you know, Buffalo came into this game as underdogs. And then Josh Allen never won a road playoff game as well. So he had that scrutiny. he had to pass attack on him.
Starting point is 00:18:07 I forget to defend his name, but he threw it off one foot, 35 yards. I'm like, what kind of arm this nigga got? Drop the ball right in his arms, and that's what gave them that go ahead drive for them to even get the 10-yard touch pushes that ultimately get that one game when they touchdown. I was saying to myself as well,
Starting point is 00:18:28 because I don't know if a lot of people know who Cam Little is, who plays for the Jacksonville Jaguars, who has the two longest kicks in NFL history. So I'm sitting there saying to myself, damn, it's a lot of time left on the clock, right? So even if they get the ball up the field, all they got to do is get it to about the 50-yard line, and he has a legit shot of making a field goal,
Starting point is 00:18:50 even if they get it to the 50. It would be a 65-67-yard attempt. But he has made those type of field goals before. So when they got him on the 23-yard line, I'm talking about when Buffalo kicked it, and Jacksonville had to start. starting a 23-yard line. I was like, okay, at least they didn't get a touchback
Starting point is 00:19:07 to where they'd be on the 35-yard line. But Trevor Lawrence came out and threw that interception, and that's what sealed the deal. But this game was very, very good. All the games were very, very good. I think Trevor Lawrence did a very, very good job. Not the best job, you know, that interception at the end was kind of cost them the game.
Starting point is 00:19:28 Because when you got Kim Little as your kicker, you got a chance. that time left. So that's what I was saying to myself. I said, this shit might go in the overtime. All they got to do is get to the 50 yard line. But big Josh Allen, nigga, was not having it. I'd never seen this in football when nigger said, move. Move out my way. I'm not playing with nicks. And he was getting beat up too. Twisted ankle, falling down. He got hammered that game, pause. But went in the 10. He had to go into 10. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but she checked out.
Starting point is 00:20:01 They messed them up. Yeah, but he wasn't having it. He wasn't having it. So congratulations. Yeah, he was not having it, man. I was watching that shit, and I say, yo, this thing goes to move, nigga. I'm not playing with niggas.
Starting point is 00:20:14 But to your point, Mike, like we talked about it last week, it was people who were saying that they possibly would take Trevor Lawrence right now. Right. Over. Right. Josh Allen, and I was on the same type of time.
Starting point is 00:20:27 You was on Mike, like, yo, y'all got to hold the fuck up. calm down. Oh, yeah, calm down. And I'm pretty sure, I'm pretty sure me and Mike heard it. Then Josh Allen heard it. Yeah. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:20:38 And he took matters into his own hands. So it was a great game to watch. Big shot to Jacksonville, you know, considering where they were at a few years ago to where they're at now, went in the division. They got a bright future. But that could not have happened, like you said, Mike, to Buffalo. Because like you said, that's the one thing that everybody is talking about.
Starting point is 00:20:59 And they didn't say it like you. They said, like you said it to where you're saying it didn't matter. With a lot of people saying if Josh Allen does win the Super Bowl, he did beat Mahomes, Burroughs, and Lamar this season. So they're throwing that on a resume, but you made a great point. It won't matter if you don't win it all. Right. And again, the one last thing that you knew you talking about,
Starting point is 00:21:23 that man, when I was talking about Josh and everything, I thought, and I even tweeted about it on X, I was like, that was stupid. When they score, it's a million two seconds. It was first down on the one. Right. And they used their last time out. I was like, okay, to snap the ball and fall right where it is,
Starting point is 00:21:46 stay in one yard, and let that clock go all the way down to 15, 20 seconds, and then snap it again. This joke will get kicked from Egypt. Right. And I thought, I said, boy, they just messed up. That was stupid. And I thought that was going to cost him. But, but Trevor Lawrence, you know, didn't play great late.
Starting point is 00:22:07 He threw that interception and then they killed the game. But yeah, I felt for a moment it will cost that game. Yeah. So now I'm curious, before you go on to this next game, how much pressure do you guys think is on Josh Allen to win it all? Because like you guys said, people were trying to compare him to Trevor Lawrence, which they're really incomparable and getting the teams and stuff mixed up. Now that he's moved on to this. next round how much pressure is on it, Mike.
Starting point is 00:22:30 And it's interesting in this because it's how history is going to remember it. Like this is probably Josh's worst damn chance. You know what I mean? Even though history thinks it's his best chance because those top quarterbacks aren't in it. I say it's his worst chance because of the team he has around him. But yet the case is what it is, you know.
Starting point is 00:23:00 You got to get that team through the New England Patriots, through the Denver Broncos. And all the hits that Josh Allen took today, I took yesterday that, that, that, he gets through this playoff. He, he, he's going to feel like a superman that ran in the crypto night in every round. You see, so, so yeah, that's the,
Starting point is 00:23:24 that's the pressure on him. he can't let these young guys pass him. You were next up in line or you were right there. And those guys and you don't get yours, yeah, you can't let the next dude come up. So all the pressure, if you ask me, which quarterback has the most pressure on him through this whole playoffs? We got to talk about the same Superman we were just talking about. That's Josh Allen.
Starting point is 00:23:50 Yeah, I think the pressure on Josh Allen is insurmountable. If he doesn't get it done this year, I don't know what to say. You're always running to Patrick Mahones. He's not in the way. What would be the excuse this year? I don't think he would have an excuse. Even though you say it's his worst chance, I really believe it's his only chance. I believe as this football career goes on, on teams are only going to get better.
Starting point is 00:24:17 The younger guys are going to get more season and more veteran. So this is your window. I think when you get an opportunity. like M&M, you can't miss this opportunity. This is that opportunity. This is that moment he's been looking for. And whenever it comes, he's going to have to be like Kauai Lennon was one season where he just put the team on his back and did it himself.
Starting point is 00:24:42 I mean, I remember one season, even Cam Newton got this close to pulling it off by hisself, you know, so I think he could do it. I don't know if Cam was by itself. They had a crew. but Cam Newton was the MVP that year. Yeah. I've seen an interesting, it's a good question, Stack. Because I, first of all, to answer the question,
Starting point is 00:25:05 I don't think any quarterback has more pressure on them than Josh Allen. But I've seen an interesting debate between my brother, shout my brother Stephen A. Smith and Ryan Clark on first take. And it was a dope debate, because Stephen A. Smith has said, if I'm, pardon me, if I don't get it verbatim, because Steve would call me and be like, like y'all, I didn't say it like that.
Starting point is 00:25:26 That nigga called me up in a minute and correct me. So, if I don't get it 100% verbatim Uncle Steve, is he was saying that if Josh Allen doesn't win it this year, you can't put all the fault on Josh Allen. You know, it wouldn't be his fault because he does what he's supposed to do. And, you know, there's other pieces around him. And Ryan Clark's point of view was,
Starting point is 00:25:54 Well, why the hell not you can't? Why the fuck not you can't put it all on Josh Allen? When Lamar Jackson doesn't win, you put everything on Lamar Jackson. They don't remember that Zay Flowers fumbled in the end zone. They don't remember that Mark Andrews didn't catch the pass. They're not going to remember that the kick of it missed the field goal for y'all to go the next round. All they're going to say is Lamar Jackson didn't get it done. Why if they could say that for Lamar Jackson, they can't say that for Josh Allen?
Starting point is 00:26:24 like that's a good point. That was a very, very good point. And it's just like that. When you're the quarterback, like we said, even though we know it's a team game, it could be dropped passes, it could be, it could be a miss field goal, could be somebody fumbling, et cetera. You, you are held responsible in the public eye when you're a good quarterback or superstar quarterback. Let's correct that as well. Because sometimes, you're held responsible in the public eye when you're, when you're a good quarterback, a superstar quarterback, let's, let's correct that as well. because sometimes you'll be like, you're not really going to blame Jalen Hertz right now. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:26:59 It's more of what's going around the Philadelphia Eagles because you don't really consider Jailer Hertz. I'm talking about in the public eye or football NSA as a top five quarterback. So when you're the top five quarterback, you're held to a higher standard than the average quarterback. So not sometimes, but you're already at a time, you're going to get the blame when your team doesn't win. But to answer the question, stat, yes, I think the most pressure on any player,
Starting point is 00:27:28 not just quarterback, is Josh Allen to win this year. Yeah, I think that. Okay. We're going to go to break. When we return, you will get into the Bears versus the Packers. Don't go anywhere. Now let's get into our underdog picks of the day tonight. The Steelers will play the Texans.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Underdog has Aaron Rogers at 204 and a half passing yards. Do you have him higher, lower, lower? Mace. I'm going higher. You got to go higher. D.K. Metcalf is back. E. better. I'm going to go higher as well. Okay. D.K. Metcalf is at 55.5 receiving yards. You have him higher or lower camp.
Starting point is 00:28:23 Oh, higher. Yeah, let's go higher. Let's go higher. Okay. And C.J. Stroud is at 228 and a half passing yards. You have higher, higher, higher. I'm going to lower. Okay. Make sure y'all download the underdog app and you can make your picks too, and we'll get into that prediction later on in the show. But time to get to the Bears. The Bears beat the Packers, 31 to 27, Mike, from what we've seen.
Starting point is 00:28:52 St. St. That, that, that, D.K. better show up to do something. He has to. He has to. Yeah. The time is now, like we've been saying, like, all that other stuff. Hey, boy, boy. Hey, I tried to make them forget when I got back my first game.
Starting point is 00:29:16 I tried to forget about it. I got called that whole chair. I'm trying to catch her everything. You hit me? You got to try to catch everything. You're talking about right now. That's the only thing you can do. So, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:28 All right. Go ahead. No silly things. We don't got time for it. Now is the time. I'm with you. And not only that's that they won without them. I know.
Starting point is 00:29:38 Because sometimes you just bang, don't put that out there. We'll, we'll get into this prediction. Mike, Mike, Mike, real quick. Mike, real quick, you wasn't on the show. Statt is going to the Miami championship game. I was saying that this, I'm just telling you, I told her I was going to tell you this. I meant to call and tell you, but this is a good time, good good time is that.
Starting point is 00:30:03 Statt went to the University of Miami for four years. They didn't do anything. They were terrible. She went to the games. They were terrible. Soon as she left, Cam Ward got there, number one NFL draft pick.
Starting point is 00:30:19 Now they're in the championship. I would not let her attain. You said we can't risk her. I can't miss brink. I would not let him do that. I wouldn't let her come. Mike, I would let her go. I would keep her out of the building.
Starting point is 00:30:36 I'm telling you now, Mike. Keep her out the building. I'm telling you that. I'm telling you, Mike, if you've got any chance to win against them grown-ass men, keep her out the building, man. I'm telling you that now.
Starting point is 00:30:50 Y'all will not win if she attends the game. She's going. I'm telling you now. See, like, why he had to put that in the... Like, we know. When I went to the homecoming game, we won. I'm trying to do all that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:31:05 Okay, Mike, don't say I can tell you. When we come back that next week, don't say I ain't seen. Man, I am going to say nothing when I'm at that game. But you will see Mike, and that's what matters too. Yeah, because when Mike there, whipping ass, they win. When you there, they don't win. We did win.
Starting point is 00:31:20 You won. Literally the game that I went to, we also won. What I'm trying to say is this. All of it. All the good. Be careful. Don't be, don't come here, Powting. Don't come here on that Monday. Yeah, Mike.
Starting point is 00:31:33 You're going to need your blanket back. Yeah, Mike, don't come in here and say you don't want to speak the, because you took us. All right. They're just mad over Ohio. Just take the bell with you, sir. I did this. Some, we geared up and ready.
Starting point is 00:31:48 We are geared up and ready. Yeah. I'll bring wine too. Maybe he made to get up Miami-Dashiki a second. I'm telling you that now. We don't need one of those. Get up Miami rain jacket. No, we don't need one of those because we saw what happened to this team.
Starting point is 00:32:03 That's what it was, murder of the poncho. We are leaving the poncho. We saw what happened with that too, but all respect. All I look, Mike, this supposed to have been between me and you. I'm just giving you a heads up, that all. If you see a stack, cross that bridge. Yeah, get you one of these, Mike. Mike, get one of these.
Starting point is 00:32:20 Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. You know. You see that. Had the beads in your hand. Don't let them put you in the same box of slut rock from Flintstone. That unlucky joker that broke everything. You know.
Starting point is 00:32:37 You ain't. Yeah. See, and we. And we're not gonna do that. Thank you. Thank you. We're here. That's all I gotta say, we're here, so.
Starting point is 00:32:47 I ain't worried. Okay, see, he laughing, laughing a lot now. That's gonna be the case. Now we're gonna have to ask you to refrain from shore. Mike, this ain't the time to try it, Mike. Yeah, this is not. We don't, we don't have nothing to be this. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:09 This is not. This is not the day to go rolling the dice. Yeah, you're right. This is not the day, Mike. Not the day. You can watch from Homestead. Why? What they call it?
Starting point is 00:33:23 Tellgate. Why? Till gate is going to tailgate. But I think if she's anywhere close is a problem, killer. Listen, they're going to kill her on the on social media. They're trying. Shout out to Miami. And lose by 16 with stat there.
Starting point is 00:33:43 Shout out to Miami. That's all I'm saying. I'm not even receiving that energy. We don't do that. Do that. Okay. On to the Bears. They beat the Packers,
Starting point is 00:33:54 31 to 27. Mike, from what we've seen, how far do you think the Bears can go? And then how do you feel about this Packers' loss? I expected the Bears to win this game. I picked the Bears who win this game. I'm going to tell you like,
Starting point is 00:34:08 Hold on, man. You said you trusted them the least. That was your exact truth. You said you trusted them the least that may say North Carolina. He was like, oh, oh, yeah, North Carolina. Go ahead, Mike. Yeah, Mike. Yeah, Mike.
Starting point is 00:34:20 Go ahead. But I kick him to win. Let me tell you why. Let me tell you why. I'll tell you why. I tell you why. I tell you why. I ain't have a problem with it.
Starting point is 00:34:26 I ain't just seeing stuff. I'm going to put some bolts on it before I drop it out. You don't understand. But for real, but for real. I think about when I, when I sat down in the last season, I thought about in Williams, I thought about, okay, the thing that he has and he does naturally, seriously, seriously, this is how I broke it down.
Starting point is 00:34:46 You know, it's how broken down. I said, okay. Now they won six spot six or seven games, last minute games. And he made those plays a couple of weeks ago did the same thing to Green Bay making a long throw to DJ more. Dude, do you, do you, do you not understand? how lifted Chicago is right now. And when you win six, seven games,
Starting point is 00:35:16 when you take your black blood on the club, boy, everybody telling you, you're the man, you won with the last minute. You did it, boy, you won the last minute. Nica, you felt like a king. You feel like a king. Caleb Williams got addicted to that feeling. So now what happens, what happens in this school,
Starting point is 00:35:36 and he looked for that, feelings. Now, that's the one thing young quarterbacks run from those pressure moments, big moments in every game in the playoffs. Look at every game today is going to come down to those moments. I said this, I'll take Chicago because of one reason. They don't have, Green Bay doesn't have number one anymore. In the game that Green Bay beat Chicago, Michael Parsons, Michael late in the game to win the game. You don't have Michael Parsons to chase him down. And now you got this Joker who's waiting on the most pressure moments
Starting point is 00:36:18 to show to his city he's a hero. He's got addicted to that feeling. So that's what games are going to come down to. And he did it again when Joy and Love fell in the end. That's why I took Chicago because Green Bay didn't have number one to chase that dude down when he back on me. Now, he's back in Chicago right now. Everybody's saying, boy, you're the hero.
Starting point is 00:36:44 You're the hero. That stuff's addictive. It's as addictive as anything. I was going to say cocaine, but I thought that might be too far. You know what I'm saying? I just left them all. That might be that alone, Mike. I just left alone.
Starting point is 00:37:03 Oh, there nobody mentioned. with me every time I take off my belt. You know what I'm saying? Mike, that would have been crazy. You just said that. You'd have been viral all morning. Listen, Mike. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:37:18 Mike, I don't see how you switch up so fast. I thought I have the potential to pivot. You should be on the show called the pivot, Mike. The way you switch and say that this is now you're, not your team, but you, you, you, now it's addictive to win. and this is as addictive as cocaine. Mike, that was a great spin, Mike. You said this with the team.
Starting point is 00:37:44 You trusted the least. And when I look at this game, of course you could look at that. When they scoring 25 points in the fourth quarter, that's pretty much almost like an MVP quarter that he has. I wouldn't say a game, but that quarter made him look like he may come back next year and feel like it's his league.
Starting point is 00:38:04 But I knew they would win this. but I want to talk about what Little Wayne said. Little Wayne said that he's disgusted because he don't know how his team could lose to a guy with his nails painted. But, you know, this is the coach we're in today. It's a new day. And shout out the little Wayne, but it's a new day.
Starting point is 00:38:25 The Green Bay had to go home. They got to go home. And this type of team, because it's two young quarterbacks, I wasn't putting a lot of stake in this. I don't see them going past the next round, but great win here and next year, it could be his league, who knows?
Starting point is 00:38:45 I'm gonna go like this, man. That's the Kayla Williams right there, nigga. That's the Kayla Williams, nigga. Kayla Williams, nigga. That nigga, cold boy. Cam, you didn't even know his name last year. Right, I know, I'm gonna keep it on and I learned it in the last,
Starting point is 00:39:06 five, six weeks. I tell you that much. That nigga, that nigga right there, boy, listen, man. Listen, man. I'll take you. Because it's a fact, man.
Starting point is 00:39:17 You know, my nigger. No, no, no, no. Now, before I'll tell you about, before I... See, Mike, this nigger's not your friend, Mike. I could never get a turn on this show. I can never get a turn. First of all, Mike,
Starting point is 00:39:34 you said you trust them at least. I'm not jacking that shit you're talking about, yo, you get addicted to winning when you're in the club. Who the fuck's like Caleb Williams in the club? That's what you used to do. Caleb Williams don't look like he got in the club. I'm not being lost and said he wanted to go home to his dog. That's part of the reason I wasn't fucking with the nigger.
Starting point is 00:39:51 I ain't like his attitude. The reason why I like Caleb Williams right now is because that nigga was mad. I see the nigger on the sideline barking on niggas. Niggins, yo, fuck as we do y'all. He was mad. I'm like, okay, that's the crush. That's what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:40:07 He flipped out of like three, four times on the sidelines, man. I'm like, that's the aggression right there. The nigger had 194 yards in the fourth quarter. 194 yards in the fourth quarter, my nigger. This is the seventh game winning drive second time with Bowdo Nix this year. Mike, you brought it up earlier. He did the same thing to Green Bay a couple weeks ago. that Chicago Bears team
Starting point is 00:40:36 you have to play them for 60 minutes you have to play that Chicago Bears team for 60 minutes swift most nice nice swift niggas up niggas you have to play them you cannot get comfortable thinking that you're up this is the largest beers comeback and playoff history ever
Starting point is 00:40:57 they're down 21-3 at halftime and you're thinking damn this shit is pretty much over your love looked really good but Caleb Williams looked like a step above. And I was saying to myself, this weekend, I called this weekend boys to men. I said this weekend is where the boys turned into men, win or lose, because if we got time,
Starting point is 00:41:19 I'm pretty sure we'll get to that game. But Bryce Young looked decent. He looked really really good in a loser effort. To me, Justin, no, I ain't going to count Justin Herbert. He's been around a little longer. But even though he played good, Trevor Lawrence had the worst game out of all the young new quarterbacks
Starting point is 00:41:38 that played this weekend. But Caleb Williams, bad motherfucker, man. Bad motherfucker. And then after the game, very poised, knew how to talk, answered it, said we have to win next week. I'm like, oh, he's trying to go Barack Obama niggins at the same time.
Starting point is 00:41:56 This nigga was on the sideline barking the niggas, throwing the ball, chilly outside. can go Barack Obama in the speech. Oh, you're trying to be the face of the league, nigger. Now, look, I see niggas, now I've seen people in the crowd doing this with their nails.
Starting point is 00:42:11 I see the audience doing this. They don't care about the nail. Let me tell you something, sad. I know we're getting on the nails and everything else. Yeah, no, I'm just telling you because you approve of it, and I'm not necessarily saying I do. But winning solves a lot of shit. When you win,
Starting point is 00:42:28 diggers is not going to care. They aren't going notice about your nails. They're not going to care about your nails if you're Chicago Bears fan I'm talking about. That's why Little Wayne tweeted that because his team lost. When it solves a lot of shit, I'm telling you the Chicago beer fan base will not motherfucking care what color his nails is if he delivers a Super Bowl. These aren't the bad news bears. These are the brand new bears. The motherfuckers look good. Congratulations, Caleb Williams. I was very impressed because I see a football player that was upset when they wasn't doing good.
Starting point is 00:43:04 I usually just see the depressed Caleb Williams and maybe they don't show you on the sidelines a lot after the games and you're like, I just want to go on my door. I see the nigga who was upset and had an attitude and didn't let his team down and said, I'm gonna go win this game. Pump faked on the side to threw that dime at the end.
Starting point is 00:43:21 Forfeit eight, you think the season's over on fourth and eight. He drops a dime again to get them inside the Green Bay Territory. territory he did it all hundred ninety four yards in the fourth quarter is amazing i know i've been on you the last for last two three years salute nigger welcome you made it nigger you made it that's crazy cam if you think if you wait wait no mike if he think that kail william is going to let cam slide after all of these years and now he's salute um all of this the nails no cam it doesn't work like that i don't get a fuck about nigger being my friend
Starting point is 00:43:58 I'm telling you, I'm an analyst and analyze what I see. Okay. I'm not here to make friends with none of these niggas. I'm here to tell you what I see. If Caleb Williams see me and walk right past me, I can care less. But I respect him on what he did in the playoffs yesterday because what he did was get the beers there first winning 15 years. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:17 The bears having won in 15 years. You get 194 yards. You're dropping dimes. Your seasons on the line with a fourth and eight. You throw it off your back foot, drop a dime, and then you throw a quarter touch there. You got to finish the job. Listen, man, I got to call it like I see it.
Starting point is 00:44:32 If I see a nigga after the game saying, I just want to get home to my dogs, I'm going to talk about it. Then I'm going to take something about his nails because you're not winning. Then if I see a nigga saying, nigga, fuck that, we can't lose. We can't, we're going to let these things lose.
Starting point is 00:44:45 Fuck is you talk about. I'm going to talk about that. You're right. I'm not here to make friends with nobody. I'm not here. This is not what I'm here to do. I'm here to do a job. Now, if I could be friends with some of these players
Starting point is 00:44:56 and then not so sensitive when I'm making takes. I would love to make friends. I'm not here to be anybody's enemy as well, but I do have a job to do. Now, what I will say is this in closing. This could be a great rivalry. When we talk about Green Bay and we talk about Chicago in division, this was the third time that they met.
Starting point is 00:45:16 And Green Bay led all this time. The last two games, Chicago didn't lead on any snap of the game for two games. Green Bay led on every snap of the game until Chicago came back and took the lead. Not only that, you know what Chicago, what Caleb Williams did at the end of the game? And Swift, they did their interview.
Starting point is 00:45:39 You know what they had? On their head, pause. You now Green Bay got the cheese. He had the cheese shredders. And it was like, ah, ah, ah, they shredding cheese. You think them Green Bay niggins is waiting for next year now? You think them niggas like word? I like that.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Niggas is straight and cheese. That's what you're doing. Now mind you, Chicago's coach and Maddler floor, they got beef. You see that hair shake after the mic game, Mike? When they came on, he basically gave a nigga five and said, yo, get ahead, man. They don't fuck with each other.
Starting point is 00:46:14 I don't know what's gonna happen with Maddler floor moving forward, but I hope the Green Bay bring the nigga back just to be like, yeah. Fuck them Chicago niggas. Cause this could be rivalry, You got the cheese head against the tree, the tree shredders, and two coaches that don't like each other.
Starting point is 00:46:31 This is great for football. I like it when niggas don't necessarily like each other, because you know it's intense, and you know that other nigger want to win. Because you know, what's the name? What's the Chicago's coach name? Johnson. Johnson, I'm sorry, that's like Gordon.
Starting point is 00:46:44 Like me thinking a fucking basketball player. Literally. Ben Johnson, when he got the job, he's like, man, fuck Green Bay. Fuck them niggas. And beat them niggas and came over it. And when a nigga came and five, he gave one.
Starting point is 00:46:55 Man, go ahead, man. He ain't even look, nigger, went off and doing it up this. Listen, this is great for football. This is really great. I liked it. I loved the game. The last two times they play were really intense.
Starting point is 00:47:06 And niggas genuinely, the coaches genuinely don't like each other. Cheese heads against the cheese graders? Shredders? Excellent shit, man. This is definitely the best. It's one of the greatest rivalries. It's one of the greatest rivals in the NFL anyway.
Starting point is 00:47:23 But what has happened here of late. was remember the Aaron Rogers saying, I own you, I own you. So it painted the rivalry because the Ann Rogers looked their ass all the time. And now they got their cheese graded. The jump was funny. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:40 You know what I mean? Like, though she's graded. It was funny. But I'm talking to, like we were talking about, the whole team is like that. That's what makes Chicago. When I say that, I trust in the least,
Starting point is 00:47:53 trust in the least, because playoff football, football is about being methodical and not making a mistake, not waiting to the end. But the whole team has that hope in them. And I always said hope dictates effort. So even if you're down 18 points, they're still playing hard because they're used to and they know how they've done it before. So it gives them a certain confidence. But yeah, in this way I want to be bring up the best thing of Kelly Williams.
Starting point is 00:48:20 Over last year, what you were talking about, Cam, when he didn't get in God's face. And I always say this. That's why it's best to have a young quarterback with the head coach. That's an offense. That's the offensive coordinator. Because if it's a young quarterback with the head coach, that's the defensive quarterback. He never feels like it's his team. It's the defensive head coach's team.
Starting point is 00:48:44 But when it's an offensive head coach, him and Ben Johnson are won. So when burden, when he threw that interception and burdened didn't run the post, he kind of went up the field instead of coming on that post he was like what in that damn bullfah you know what i mean he was telling him he'd be messing up like that god darn it i can't you got me throwing these interceptions out here people go think but he wants to win i i picked that up to you you go feel the intensity it's a difference it is a difference like cam said when i saw you doing this and then holding your mama hugging your mom oh hugging your mom over and she's holding your head I don't want to see that, but I don't mind seeing you said,
Starting point is 00:49:25 do this right here. Now you look like somebody can lead somebody. So it does show up. Yeah. And then Mike, I know you give credit to Ben Johnson for his offensive coordinated background, but like even just him being a first time head coach in general, like the bear's ceiling is super high and I know that they're super excited. And like you guys are both talking about, one of the best rivalies in the league.
Starting point is 00:49:46 So they have a lot to be excited about, but we're going to see they can take it all the way. away. So we'll see what happens. And then next, we're going to get into the Patriots. They've been staying on top. They beat the Chargers 16 to three. Mike, what was your opinion on the Chargers gameplay and then the Patriots win? I'm shocked, actually. I mean, I took the Patriots to win that game. But I was blown away with the charges inability to handle that six-man rush when they blitzed and bliss, Blitz Justin Herbert like that. He didn't get a chance to really do much in the past the game
Starting point is 00:50:29 and then he would take out and run. This is, this is, this is Jim Harbaugh. You know what I mean? It's one of the, he's one of the good young quarter coaches in this league that played quarterback. And for them not to be able to come up with an answer for that was, yeah, that blew my mind. I mean, I thought it would be a,
Starting point is 00:50:50 a tough game. I thought New England would win the game, but I didn't think in any way that I would ever see Chicago. I mean, I'll see the charges look like that against that bliss defense with the quarterback Jim Harbaugh being the head coach. You know, and that's what killed that game for me.
Starting point is 00:51:12 That's what killed that game for them. Well, first of all, I don't want to discredit either. one of these teams defenses because the game was basically a field goal game until the fourth quarter. Everything was field goal. So you sit there and say, you know, to me this was the, you know, it's been so much magic. The first, what, four games of the playoffs three on Saturday, then the two, no, pardon me, two Saturday. What was?
Starting point is 00:51:45 I don't remember two, three, three Sunday, Sunday, right. But anyway, this being the last. last game, it kind of was a downer to watch, but you don't want to discredit the defense at the same time. I thought that the charges defense was really well, but the inability of the, I mean, pardon me, the Patriots defense was really well,
Starting point is 00:52:05 but the inability of the charges to score. Like Mike said, and you wasn't clear when you said it, but I know what you meant, just for audience, you know, for an audience didn't know. Jim Harbaugh was a former quarterback. So when Mike was trying to say, yeah, no, just so our audience knows. is that right right is that it's it's really unexplainable how just the
Starting point is 00:52:29 herbert had this bad of a game and now we know he's under pressure he got sacks six times he got russed up pretty well but it was times where he had a lot of time in the pocket but he wasn't getting it to the receivers and it seemed like they didn't want to take chances and when they had one-on-one coverage sometimes you got with your best receiver you got to take a chance i know mike if you run down, if you got one-on-one coverage, I know you're thinking, I know you think if it's triple coverage, you get in the ball, let alone one-on-one coverage.
Starting point is 00:52:58 You got to take a chance, especially when this is your last game, do or die. And it just didn't seem like a sense of urgency to me for them to make something to happen offensively. Shout to my man, Church, and we were walking in here to work this morning, and we was like, yo, man, it just seemed like Justin Herbert ain't the nicky he was.
Starting point is 00:53:16 Because I'm into Justin Herbert business. All season, I'd be like, you, Justin Herbert, Justin Herbert. I argue with a nigger that told me Gino Smith was better than Justin Herbert. And I was like, yo, my name, you got to chill. But yesterday was such a pathetic effort, and I don't want to say it and blame it all on Justin Herbert because we know a lot goes into it.
Starting point is 00:53:35 But I didn't see a nigga that wanted to take the game into his own hands. And I would never put him in the category of Josh Allen, but that's a nigga who said I'm taking things into my own hands. You know, even to young Caleb Williams, on the sideline yelling, and people saying we cannot lose this game. And sometimes you need that from your quarterback. And I just didn't see that.
Starting point is 00:53:54 So I'm not putting the blame all on him. But I totally agree with you, Mike. Being the Jim Harbaugh as a former quarterback, it should have been a sense of urgency or a better game plan coming into that game. But congratulations to the New England Patriots. And they're moving on. So congrats to them.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Drake may play decent too. And I thought he was smart. Used his legs a lot as well. I think he has 65 rushing yards on top of the 200 plus yards that he have passing. Okay. And then last game before we wrap, one of the earlier games of the Panthers, lost to the Rams 34 to 31. Mike, did any part of this game come as a surprise to you?
Starting point is 00:54:33 And then how do you feel about the Rams win? It did because I believe the thing I stated going into the game was the health of Devonty Adams should determine it. This was going to be a great game, man. With Michael Jackson and Jay C. Horn on one corner and Vonté out of the Pooka, Nucca, Nucca, Nucur, at the wide receivers. I mean, it was, that was a phenomenal game. And it kind of took the pattern of the last time, you know, Ram looked good early, and then here comes the Panthers coming back.
Starting point is 00:55:09 And the Panthers actually had to lead. And I thought at a time, like, like they had one. before, I said they're about beating the Rams again. A couple of things that I thought was interesting. You know, Michael, Mike Jackson playing Devonte and Devonte. Mike Jackson's from the youth. Great, great young corner, great quarterback. But I wanted, when I'm watching that game,
Starting point is 00:55:34 I wanted to just stop and give a lesson to young receivers. Because cornerbacks, some corners read the receiver, but some corners like Mike Jackson, reads the quarterback, and it's called cluing. It's called clueling. That means if I'm playing quarterback, I'm looking at the quarterback, I'm not even looking at the receiver
Starting point is 00:55:57 to determine how I'm going to react. So if the quarterback takes a three-step drop, I know he's going to throw a route, somewhere five or six yards. He's going to do a slant, a quick out, or a quick hitch. So once he stop at three steps, I drive. If the quarterback takes seven steps, I know that's a 20-yard in.
Starting point is 00:56:16 Because you're going to take seven and hitch up. I got to run down and come in and out of route. So then I sit at set 15 and 20 yards. This is what Mike Jackson was doing. And he was giving him fit. I was screaming at the screen. Because whenever I hear a guy that I notice cluing, now I'm not running a route trying to fake him out.
Starting point is 00:56:35 I'm running his ass over. You understand what I'm saying. You try to look at the quarterback. Okay. I'm going to run your ass. Oh, boy, that's best with you look at. So I was like, run into the Joker because they were stopping him.
Starting point is 00:56:50 That's what was killing him. They couldn't pick up the cornerback clueling. And they would make it plays. But in the end, Stafford made the plays. They made the plays. And that boy, Pooka, of course, just a bad boy, man. I've been talking on people. I don't know why we don't want to make.
Starting point is 00:57:09 People really don't want to make him. He's the top five. He's the top five. I said, yeah, he's a top five receiver. I can't help with you. Y'all see the man he liked bright, looking kind of white, y'all don't want to make him a top five receiver. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:57:23 The man is what he is. He deserves to be in that old. You know, so, so yeah, yeah, that was a good game to, though. Y'all said what you want. All the games, we had some good games. That last game like Cam, I don't know, say it probably was a, ha, ha, ha, ha. But every other thing.
Starting point is 00:57:43 pain that way it was a great weekend of playoff football yeah when it came down to it matt did what he was supposed to do we knew earlier um last week when we was talking about this game that it was going to bore down to experience for me i knew that that was the major thing that i kept trying to share all through the week that these teams are young they're gonna they're gonna play well but the thing you need them to do down and stretch can pause is only going to really come from experience and veteran play. And that's exactly what happened. You got a young quarterback that a great turnaround, great turnaround for, you know,
Starting point is 00:58:24 North Carolina just thinking about where they were just last year. This is a great step up from last year selling tickets for a dollar, offering food, all of that. They made a major turnaround. So even to be this close to winning this type of game and to be in the playoffs after all of that is a win for them. And I know this speaks to the mediocrity of this year, what we've seen on this panel from guys like Mike and Statt and Killett sometime.
Starting point is 00:58:57 I'm really immune to it, but I'm actually going to say this. It just brought down to Matthew Stafford for me. You know, we always say, at least I say, that it's the first quarterback to 225. It doesn't matter who it is. You just pay attention to the numbers, numbers don't lie. And I'm just happy I could add that to the stage of analysts at this time. Shout to the Panthers. I think, Brachon, you did a really, really good job.
Starting point is 00:59:26 Even to the very last play for the Panthers, he passed the ball and the nigger dropped the pass. When he had a chance to go up the field, it was fourth down and the nigga dropped the pass. He threw it a little low, but he could have slid. Yeah, yeah, he could have slid. And he could have slid and caught the ball. So I think that the Carolina Panthers did really, really well. I know Mace was being sarcastic when he said it, but I thought they did really, really well considering where they did come from last year. We know they beat the Rams earlier this year,
Starting point is 01:00:02 but nobody really gave them a chance to win this game. I was like, yeah, wait a minute, this nigga, even when Rayshaw was scrambling, a nigga scrambled for a touchdown before halftown. Who the fuck on this nigga running? They look really good. They got to a point, and I don't mean to be like this. It looked like it was niggas versus white people.
Starting point is 01:00:20 I didn't know. Word to mother. I was like, that's what it looked like. I was like how a lot of parents got some niggins on there. They all, I see that niggas hurt me. They have some strong niggins. I see, yo, this is black versus white right now. Okay.
Starting point is 01:00:36 I don't know what I'm rooting for, because I'm a Matthew Staff and fan, but it seemed a little, it wasn't racist. It wasn't racist or racial, but it definitely looked like I was watching some niggas play against some other nugglers not necessarily all niggas. And I said, I wouldn't be mad if Carolina
Starting point is 01:00:52 win this motherfucking game, man. But big shout out to them. But it boils down to, like May I said, it definitely boils down to Matthew Stafford. You come back on this game winning drive, and I don't remember how much time was on the clock, but you don't even throw it to receive it until you're tight in Parkinson, essentially for the game.
Starting point is 01:01:10 game winning touchdown. And like I said, Bryce Young had a chance to get the ball up the field, but I don't blame this on him. And that's why I said this weekend to me was boys the men, one loser, draw for some of these quarterbacks. And I thought all the new quarterbacks that got in their first-time playoff experience did a very, very good job, man. And that's why I said even earlier, as much as everybody loves Trevor Lawrence, he has a look, they won the division, so on, so forth, North Carolina. They got to the point. playoffs with an eight and nine record. I thought Bryce Young played very, very well for a debut, man.
Starting point is 01:01:45 So congratulations to them. But as your boy down to that, to that motherfucking Matthew Stafford, man. And like you said, Mike, my man Pookie, Pookie and Matthew Stafford is a problem, man. And listen, Mike, you know, I tried to argue with Mike about season, not season, pardon me, I tried to argue Mike about week four with this shit.
Starting point is 01:02:09 And I'm like, yo, niggins got rid of Cooper coming, you like, Cam, you don't understand. They got a better nigga for cheap. I said, man, I won't hear all that shit, Mike. I don't want to hear it. And the weeks went on and went on, and I'm seeing the catches he's making it. It was some catches last, and before the season was over, it didn't count. And I was like, yo, even if it was out of bounds, they should have let that count.
Starting point is 01:02:31 That's how good he is. And to me, what you're saying, Mike, how some people don't want to put him in top five receivers, to me, it's not a better wide receiver. but this season, this season, then Pooka Nacour personally, my opinion. So congratulations to the Rams, but big congratulations as well to North Carolina. I thought you guys did really well.
Starting point is 01:02:53 For sure. Overall, some really good games. Go ahead, Mike. What that catch, Cam talking about. That catch that Puka made that they got a battle. Yeah, right? Yeah. Right, right, yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:06 That catch in that Ketat, Tony made, what his foot was bearded out of balance. Right. When he reached back. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:16 That catch, he's like, wait a minute now. First of all, the catch we talked about with Puka, his feet was in bounds. They talked about he just didn't have control of the ball moving forward. We got to do something about that rule. God damn, yo. You want a nigga be a ballerina control, yo. The man was literally out of bounds, man. That was amazing.
Starting point is 01:03:37 That was cold. Yeah, man. So Mike. They weren't cold. I can see, I understand why they got rid of Cooper Cup. They bought in the nigger for cheap. They got one of them niggins. So, yo, go get the, yo, we be right.
Starting point is 01:03:50 Because you all think about this as well. You know, we're not in the, on part of the scouting team. We're not in practices. We're not there seeing what's going on. Because it might have been a time when you're like, yo, you're getting rid of Jimmy Garapolo, you're getting rid of this, who is Brock Purdy? So y'all go on with this? Trust me, nigga, we got something.
Starting point is 01:04:11 We got something. We're not in those things. So when these teams make the decision, they're not just irrational decisions. They know things that we know. Yeah. So I was just giving you your props, Mike. I get it, man.
Starting point is 01:04:23 I get it. Okay. In the comments down below, let us know which game shocked you the most. But that is all the time that we have for today. Mike, you know, it's always a pleasure to have you on the show. It's always great to be on the show, especially when we play in the show.
Starting point is 01:04:40 championship game here in a week. But, you know, we're talking about that some other times. I told you what to do. Like it's too early and you're inviting stack. Keep it up. Keep it up. Hey, yo, Muskie.
Starting point is 01:04:51 That's what we are. Let's keep it on that. Let's keep it on there real quick before we go because we don't really get to indulge in this. The championship game is coming up. Congratulations to Miami. Do y'all, keep it, I know you said, do y'all really think I got a chance?
Starting point is 01:05:09 Indiana. Indiana. That's good. Go ahead. They don't try it. I decided to say something, Mike, then you can go. It's the way everybody counted us out versus Ohio State to, like, I don't care what anybody else has to say anymore.
Starting point is 01:05:22 No, I'm just at this point. Yes, we have a very valid chance because we're good. We're playing in Miami and things happen. We've seen it time after time week after week, but Mike, you already know, you already know, literally, so you know. Right, right. What? What? Mike. You're going to need your poncho, Mike.
Starting point is 01:05:41 You're going to need your poncho. I want to hear what Mike has to say, because this is a real question. Now, I know y'all are homers and you got dough thrills, but I want to hear real analysis or what you think about this game coming out. And for real, for real. A couple things you said. First of all, Indiana has taken the route of,
Starting point is 01:05:58 we're going to keep guys a little bit longer, so we have more mature guys. That's all cool. That's all cool. But this is the part that people are not grasping totally. Indiana's top player on offense and top player on defense from right here. So all both of them are from Miami and from Miami. So when they were in high school around here and all that around here,
Starting point is 01:06:29 all them jumpers we got will whooping their ass. You understand what I'm saying. That's why they happen to go to Indiana. And they come to Miami. So I know, I know they've been killing everybody else. But when they come back here, they're going to be playing. They're going to look here and say, those niggas like us.
Starting point is 01:06:54 Yes, we are. Because you come from here. You see what I'm saying? That's what that is, dude. You all got in the other guy, too, two of our, it turned out to be our best right now. But we got many, we got more than two. And we're going to show up and we'll see.
Starting point is 01:07:13 And y'all say that every step of the way, this team ain't, boy, y'all got no chance on this team. You ain't got no chance on this team. You ain't got no chance on this team. And each week you've seen me pull a belt to ass. So just stop her. And we'll see again when that red and there, I'll show up. At home, this is home.
Starting point is 01:07:36 This is home. I'm just telling you, man, oh, we got a chance. But I don't want everybody to say that. Keep saying what everybody's saying because that's what makes the story great. When everybody says, there is no hope, there is no way, and you win that day. Yeah, that's what makes it great.
Starting point is 01:07:56 So it makes the story greater later. Keep saying that. In other words, y'all don't have no chance. Yeah, me. All that shit is for night, nigger. You said that about the Brassaddle. You said, we got a chance. You don't.
Starting point is 01:08:10 You didn't say, we're going to win. He ain't saying, none and I'd say all that shit about. He ain't ever say, we home. We home. The best players that Bush and from here went there, because they wasn't there. Mike, they're 26 now. I'm telling you this now.
Starting point is 01:08:24 Yeah, Mike. Put your fell in your fans. My head. That they're 26, 27. Now, Kurt Sonetti, to me, he understands the coach for Indiana to me. I'm telling you right now, now. I talked to a shout to my
Starting point is 01:08:36 nigga Bob who lives in Miami. We're actually talking. He's going to be the Nick Sabin of this new era in Indiana because he understands how to recruit grown men. It's a loophole in college football right now. And until they fix the loophole,
Starting point is 01:08:52 he understands what it's going to take to win and recruit. Gotta get the five star. There's no five stars on, like you said, there's no five star players on Indiana at all. They get, no, that shit. Bephyl, y'all, y'all, y'all gonna go over there. Yeah, we're gonna get the dogs.
Starting point is 01:09:09 And we're gonna get, not only we're gonna get dogs, we're gonna get old niggas. They're gonna fuck these young niggas up. Not saying Carson Beck ain't 92 years old. I'm just trying to say, I'm just trying to tell you. That kid's, we got. Malichajon.
Starting point is 01:09:24 Malichael is 17 years old. That's 17 years old playing these niggas 26. And that's my point, Mike. That's what I'm saying. And we should have a whip big butt. And listen, I know. him, he'd be classified. He's supposed to be in high school right now.
Starting point is 01:09:37 I understand what you're talking about, but it's boys against men. And I know one thing, what happens is when you're older and you say, okay, I got another chance. I can't let these young niggas. This is my last chance. They got a bunch of chances.
Starting point is 01:09:52 I'm going to hurt this young nigga. I'm a hurt, and that's Indiana's mentality. This is my last chance. This nigga came back to get me, nigger, please. I got a, nigga. I wish this 17-year-old would, I'm not saying he kid because that nigga nice.
Starting point is 01:10:06 He's not going to act like he ain't nice. But if you think in this, I'm just giving you an inkling of what I'm saying. Beth, if you had 16 years in college, Mace left college. And I'm going to leave it on this. Because we didn't have COVID years. We couldn't get hurt for two, three years and all this.
Starting point is 01:10:28 Mace left college. And I'm being totally honest with you. Because a 28-year-old, I don't know how I worked last year was playing against him when he was 18 and Mace felt that it was just Mason how did it go why did you go back home
Starting point is 01:10:43 this is what I'm saying because you're not fully developed as a man I think it was like 30 years old playing in college no he was like 28 and I was 18 and I'm like yo how is this nigga playing this nigga's like wild grown
Starting point is 01:10:58 yeah and you're not fully developed as a man at 18 years old 18 years old you're not fully developed. That nigginsetti, he got the loophole, and he's going to be the next Nick Sabin, if niggas keep trying to recruit high school kids because he's going to get grown men,
Starting point is 01:11:15 and he figured the loophole out. I don't know how they're going to fix this loophole because now it's coming into basketball. Now niggas who are in the G League about to go back to college and play college basketball because they never use their eligibility. And then you can make some money.
Starting point is 01:11:31 So, yeah, now you can make money in because of the NIL. So now you have 24, 25 years that play professional basketball overseas or played in the G League who haven't played college basketball, having used all their eligibility, going back to play against 17, 18,
Starting point is 01:11:46 19 on niggas. Mike, I wish you the best. I hope y'all win. But I'm just telling you. I think Alabama, what they have, six points. She's only receiving the good. Yeah. I appreciate it. Yeah, Alabama has six.
Starting point is 01:12:02 But, but, but, this is said, when, with the first one we won in 83, there was a team came in here by the name of Nebraska cornhuskers. They said this was the greatest team in the history of college football. They said it was going to run Miami. I'm just telling you history. So history repeats itself. It ain't like this is new. That's what I'm saying. They've been saying these things all along, and it still gets done.
Starting point is 01:12:32 So let's see what happens. All right. We're going to see one week from the day. One week from the day. We'll see. My next episode, when you're back on Mike, I don't know what it is, but we might have to do a little bet or something because we, time and time, week and week, some have this.
Starting point is 01:12:48 So we got to think of what it would be. Whatever bet you are on my game. We got to think what it would be. Because at this point, something's got to happen. I know what's going to happen. Everybody, why are you going to turn on you when they lose? No. In the comments, to the game to the game.
Starting point is 01:13:01 Look, brad. In the comments down, If we do do a bet, a work bet, let us know what y'all think it should be, what the loser should do. So think on that. Mike and be me and Mike. Mike, keep that out the arena, Mike. Keeps that out. I'm gonna get staff security because walking out of there is gonna be bad.
Starting point is 01:13:20 Walking out of that arena is going to be bad. Not claiming that. Shout out Miami, you already know what it is, but thank y'all for watching. And as always, it is what it is.
