With 84 being spelled out, that link is pinned into the chat. And we got a very special guest joining us tonight. Chris Olive, the outstanding wire receiver from the New Orleans Saints, joins us in a bit. But first, the game that you just watched, the Broncos are one step closer to winning the AFC West and clinching the number one overall seed.

With the win tonight, if the charges were to lose at the Texans, they would be the number one seed. But that remains to be seen. But the Broncos win tonight, 20 to 13, over the Kansas City Chiefs, Bo Nix, 25, or 382, one touchdown, one reception.

He was also sacked once. had 32 carriers of buck 28, 26, a pass attempt, completion, excuse me, 182 and one touchdown. Kansas City, Ola Dekoon was 13 or 22 for 66 yards. They ran the ball for 82 yards. So barely, barely, less than 150 yards of total offense. It looks like tonight, Ocho, the Broncos, like, look, we don't believe they can move the ball up and down the field on us.

Let's not do anything careless. Let's not get reckless with the football. They were very, very conservative, very generic and the play selection in which they ran and they were able to escape a division of rival without one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, Patrick Mahomes, down to starting corners, the Kansas City's defense and the starting offensive line was in shambles. But I thought they did a great job against the number one sack team in the NFL. They only gave up one sack and he did a great job of getting out of harm's way. Ocho watching this ball game, what did you like about what you saw from the Broncos and what? I mean, I didn't like the fact that they played down to the competition. I would have loved for, I would have loved for Sean Payton to be a little bit more aggressive.

Obviously, trusting Bo Nix. To me, it almost seemed what the way the play calling was the night, knowing that they're down and don't have Pact from Homes at the helm, let's take advantage of this situation. Let's take advantage of them being that they don't have Paxham Homes, and let's put the pedal to the medal. Let's be aggressive. Let's allow Bo Nix to put up those type of stat lines.

He put up the past two previous weeks. It didn't look like that tonight. Tonight, it looked like the Broncos played down to their competition. I mean, that's what it looked like to me. I'm not sure what the problem was. At some point, they're going to have to let Bo Nix off that leash, yon. They got to let him off that leash. Especially once you get to the playoffs,

I know you want your defense to be able to carry you through the way. But your quarterback, your quarterback is going to have to come through for you at some point. They did win, though. There's nothing I can say, they did win. they won, but you don't accept anything in a win, you wouldn't have lost. And had you lost this game, you'd have been very disappointing your performance. And I love the Broncos. I don't

make any, you know, bones about that if there's nothing to be ashamed of. But for me right now, looking at this team over the last three weeks, I think they're closer to being one and done than they are winning a playoff game. Because in the playoffs, a team can grab the momentum and you'll find yourself down 14, 17 points

in the blink of an eye. In the blink of an eye. And I see some things that's concerning for me, and I've watched it. Look, you can't, listen, if you got Tom Brady or Patrick Mahomes, you can keep winning these one-score games in the regular season, and it will translate in the postseason because they've been there and they've done that.

You're talking to a quarterback that's never been there and done that. And the game got out of hands last year against Buffalo. So he don't know what it's like to be in a nip-and-tuck ball game come post-season. You think the pressure is immense. in the regular season you times that because this is finality you lose that game you're going home see you lost last week against jacksonville guess what you played Thursday night and the play out there is none of that and so that's concerning to me because I see some things consistently and sometimes it's Sean Payton I don't get I don't get why all of a sudden he's a situation

that moving the ball good and then he gets a bright idea you know what let me let me show my genius and he just tries something off the cup that really doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me um the defense was the defense tonight i thought they would get after him a little bit more than what they did i thought they was very conservative they didn't bring pressure ocho they just played a lot of base defense and just sot back you know what they knew they had nothing to worry about pastor mahone wasn't there so you know what it's really no need to do that and obviously the backup quarterback the backup quarterback olo dukan yeah yeah he got legs on he got legs now you you bring pressure if you want to and he come out of that backside on he can hurt you so i mean i mean what they did

They had a great game playing defensive defense. If you don't mind me, when people attack the Raven, when people attack the Raven, when people attack or Josh Allen, what do they do? They sit back there and play or do they bring pressure? When they got that damn pressure, boy. Because I want to make a decision right now.

You want to speed it up. You want to speed it up. Okay, I'm with you when you're right, but they didn't see him as a threat, they didn't see him as a threat, which is why they played the game, played the game the way they did. Yeah, we're good.

We can sit back here, we can sit back here, play ball. I ain't got to do nothing extra. I can got to do nothing exotic. I'm just calling my defense. Y'all boy do what y'all do. I agree with you. I just think the last thing is I'm not so sure. Um, that last played a Hollywood Brown. Um, look, he couldn't set his feet. The ball sale on him. It got a little high. Um, but for it to come down to a throw at the end of the game. And when you're down, they're down the starting quarterback. their MVP quarterback.

They're down that offensive line. They're down two starting corners. And all you can muster was 20 points. And I understand it's a rivalry game. I understand it's on the road. But they're the chance you don't get home field and you're on the road. So then what?

And every team that your face is better than Kansas City is right now. Every team, whether it's the Texans, whether it's the charges, whether it's the Jags, whether it's the Patriots. I don't care who you're going to face come postseason. Everybody, because of their quarterback situation, and because of their defense is banged up

and their offensive line is banged up. I don't know. I just want the thing that I know is that when you're playing your best football heading until the playoffs, that normally bodes well for you come postseason. Most definitely. You want to be hitting on all-selling.

Obviously, it takes for the goddamn head coach to have goddamn trust and confidence in his quarterback to be able to make the right decision with the ball and that opens up the playbook. That opens up the playbook. And we can tell those who watch the game, and those who play the game, they can tell when the head coach

trusting his quarterback by the goddamn play calling. What, what are you drinking over there, huh? Hey, you see about cooler, I got a little cooler. That's a cooler. Hey, where you got a little mini cooler from? Boy, that cool. Whoa, whoa, why don't you? Hold on.

Ain't got no, it ain't got no big or no one. I know, I don't want one. I ain't never see no cooler that goddamn small, boy. I ain't never seen nothing but it's small either, but it's refreshing. You got it for Christmas? Mmm, that cool, refreshing drink. Okay, what kind of, what kind of drink?

What's you drinking in there? That, whoa, what, are you, Kremma? Huh? And Kremma, you drink, I mean, you drink. I mean, you have some ice. Oh, so, hey, I know what it is. That's a little egg dog in there, huh? Ain't no, no egg, ain't no egg.

Ain't no egg. A little something, a little something, a little cocock. Okay, okay. Let me show ya a little concocious. I've been working on. Okay. Oh, you got something new coming at? A little concoction, you know, pull a little something out.

Okay. Oh, oh, you got. Oh, so, hold on. Hey, what's the chaser? What's the chaser? You know, I don't drink, but I know about the chaser. What you use as your chaser? A little old ginger ale. Okay, so ginger ale and La Portier.

Okay. Yeah, man. Y'all try. And you know what you need to do? And you need, hey, I know, it's a crevice. So you might want to part one of, part one of them sparks, huh? Oh, Joe, I'd be like Superman. I can't eat, I can't even laid out of my stomach in the bed.

If I pot water bill, I mean, man, the last thing I want to do is Superman and Ocho. Hey, you got to, you got to go out the New Year. You got to go out the right way now. We only got a few more days. Oh, the New Year? Oh, I'm out like a Scott of the New York. He did a New Year. Oh, me 206.

You know what I'm saying? My probation officer said, I've been doing good. He said, I ain't been, I ain't, I ain't went too far. He said that time with Ocho, he said that was pretty funny. But, but other than that, you think good. So we might have to move your date up a little bit. I said, okay, I shall appreciate that. Yeah, we can move it up.

We can, we can, we get damn, we get damn, so move it up. Listen, we only got by how many days left in the new year? What, six? Uh, the day the two, we only got six. Yeah, we're good. Hey, you might, well, start, you might, we'll warm it up right now. Yeah, we only got six. I mean, look, it was, it's a quick,

I'm not making excuses, but it's a fast turnaround. First of all, it's Christmas. You just played Sunday. You're a little sore. A lot of people probably want to, you know, want to be with their family and, you know, got kids and want to open presents, especially if you're the road team.

You're the road team. And you're playing the last game of the evening. So not only because, like, at least the Cowboys or Detroit, they're going to get back in time in order to do something. Man, the Bronco is not going to get back to you. Well, it's a two hours difference in the time, so it's one hour difference or seven. They might get back.

Nah, so you leave the stadium at an hour, take your hour to take off. It'll take you about an hour and a half to get there. So it's going to be probably about midnight, maybe 1 o'clock. If everything goes according to plan. But look, it's tough playing divisions game. City is not an easy place to play, but you couldn't ask for better conditions. You could not have asked for better conditions

this time of year for Kansas City. Nobody had on sleeves. No, nobody. It was so warm. You're like, I'm like, damn. I remember going to Kansas City in December and I ain't get no weather like that. Hell, I've been going in November

and not getting weather like that. So the weather was perfect. But a part of me can't understand what Sean Payton was thinking. He's like, look, this team, unless we do something crazy, give them a pick six, we give them a scoop and score, and that's how they scored.

If we don't turn the ball over, they can't beat us. So if we make them run the field, if we, excuse me, if we make them go the length of the field and not give them short fields, don't give them pick sixes. Don't give them scoop and scores. Don't do what Detroit did. They saw what Detroit did earlier, Ocho. Six turnovers.

That's how you get beat. That's how you get eliminated from the playoffs. We saw this with Detroit last year against Washington in the division round. They had five turnovers. Jerry golf, Jerry golf had a day. I mean, he, he, he, he, he, uh, he messed his fans today. But the Broncos, look, Bo Nicks, 26 and 382, one touchdown, one of a deception.

Nothing to write home about. There was nothing really the right home about. I kind of feel bad for the fans that stayed up and kind of watch this game because of what they were hoping for. I thought Cortland Sutton had a couple of plays on his hand that he let get away from him. Look, that first one, you're a pro bowl. receiver, you probably should come down, but that's, okay, I'm going to forgive that. But that touchdown?

No, no, no, the first one on third down that he dove out, uh, Boone Nick's step up in the pocket. I kind of forgive that one because he tried, he, he, he, he, he, he, he don't for it. And he didn't get a chance to bring it in. So what he, in the process, by the time he got that, it hit the ground and popped out. But that done it down, you got to have it. Yeah. You got to, you, you definitely, you got to have that because you. Oh, the one, the one, the drag, the crossing right.

that got up on the pad. Yes, yes. Hey, Bo put some heat on that one, boy. Yeah, okay, okay. He's going to have to, he's going to have to learn some touch, Jojo. Everything you can't be throwing through a hurricane. Have some touch. Have some touch.

But look, I mean, Kansas City couldn't have any more worse looking at what they had. Your starter gets hurt. Your backup gets hurt. You're down your two starting corners. You're down your right tackles. You're right. I mean, I don't know a trait. if Trey Smith played.

So probably the only really started that's in there is probably your left guard and your center. But they battle. They'll be back next year. The Broncos, I'm sure Sean Pate's like, hey, we won the ball game. It was a short week. Congratulations.

Now we get, you know, you get some time off. Tomorrow's Friday. So you probably get Friday. They'll probably get the rest of the week off, Joe. Probably get Friday, Saturday, Sunday. I'll see you guys money. Listen, you might as well. You might as well.

Look, we in week 17. Week 17, uh-uh. Yeah, man, you know, everybody's in rhythm. A lot of them boys to rest up, recover, spend time with the families. You know, we just played Sunday. We came right to return right around and played Thursday. I mean, we played Thursday didn't turn right back around and play Sunday. Y'all go ahead and chill for a little bit.

Mm-hmm. Their one went away. Look, the Broncos inch closer. All they need now is for the Chargers to lose. if the charges don't lose the charges play the Broncos the final game a final regular season game

if the charges beat the Broncos and beat the Houston Texans they win the NFC win and they're trying to look they're trying to do everything they can to hold on to that number one seed because New England

is in position to get it and and Jacksonville is it in position to get the number one seed. So this is a very important. This is a very important game for the Broncos.

We'll see what happens this weekend. They get an opportunity to sit back and relax and say, okay, we've already taken care of our business. Let's see what happens this weekend. And they'll know definitely what they need to do come weekend and next weekend and see if they can clinch that number one seed and the AFC West Division title. But so the Broncos are 13 and 3-Ocho. the New England pages are 12 and 3

Jacksonville is 11 and 4 the Steelers are 9 and 6 that is your division leaders as we currently speak the Chargers are 11 and 4 Buffalo is 11 and 4 and Houston Texas are 10 and 5 so

those are your wild cards as we currently speak now obviously the number 1 seed the 1C 2C3 seeds all that can fluctuate all that can fluctuate all that can fluctuate But as we sit right now, the Broncos are the number one seed at 13 and 3. The Patriots are the number 2 seed at 12 and 3.

Jacksonville, the number 3 seed at 11 and 4. And the Pittsburgh Steelers are round out the top division winners, division leaders at 9 and 6. So there are going to be a lot of people scoreboard watching on Sunday, Ocho. You know how it goes like, oh, okay, we're here. Let's see what they do. Come on, man. Stand at the scoreboard the whole game. You're going to be cheering for teams that you normally hate.

Like, I don't know why I got to share for you guys, but come on. And you hate being in that position where you have to rely on someone else for your destiny. That's one of the worst feelings in the world, boy. It is. Hey, what's up, everybody? Daniel Jeremiah here. And I'm Bucky Brooks.

Golf was sacked five times. The Vikings' defense first forced, five turnos by him, two interception, three fumbles. Um, again, golf had, in the divisional game against the Washington.

He had five. He had five today and Jemir Gills fumbled on the, uh, so they had six turnovers. Entering tonight, Ocho, the ball over eight times. All season.

The fewest in the NFL with the lost Detroit has now lost more than the previous two seasons combined. And Dan Campbell won't run away from retooling the roster in the off season, wherever is necessary. But hey, I think we need to talk about something. We need to have a real conversation. Who started calling the plays? Who took over the play calling on Joe?

Mr. Campbell? Uh-huh. Ain't nobody want to talk about that because they won the first time he took over. And everybody was talking about, whoa, yeah. Yeah. Okay. Okay, then. Let's talk about that.

It look good. I'm trying to, when it comes to the play call and I'm trying to talk about the runner game. What happened to the goddamn runner game? At Jemir Gib was on fire. Week to week. I'm talking about back-to-back weeks. He was putting up crazy numbers,

hitting his head off the goalpost from way out there in the field. Then all of a sudden, the past, what, four, five weeks? The runner game has been abysmal. It's somewhat disappeared. I'm not sure what's going on with the goddamn offensive the line. What the hell is wrong with the goddamn center? He forgot how to snap the goddamn ball. And your left tackle, you got skipper playing at left tackle when really he's a swing. He's a swing lineman. He comes in, Ocho. He always

rubbing himself, letting the officials know that he's eligible. He's not a guy. No. Unfortunately, Ocho. Punei Sewell, he's your best officer in line. He might have to, you might have to kick him to the left side. You got to. You wasted him on the right side. You have to. You have to listen he's a swiss army knife on he can do just about he can play right guard right tackle left left guard left tackle he can do it all he's that good at what he does and the fact that hey oh goddamn brossmer was nine for 16 for 51 51 yards nine to 16 for 51 yards this ain't this ain't pop warner this is an NFL game this is the chat this is the NFL game the stats for a starting

quarterback he's a backup but he was started tonight in a real game in a real game where you got one of the top three receivers in nfl on your team in justin jefferson huh with another great duo right alongside him and jordan addison like is the quarterback play that bad is there development problem when to come to the quarterbacks in nfl for you to have one of the up to about with your eyes closed i can get the ball to goddamn justin jefferson what do we talking about he got to be frustrated. I know a lot of people be like, oh, he's not like that. He's not into drama. Oh, he's not a diva. The hell you say, man, y'all better wake up, man. The man wants to produce. He wants to be able to, you know, help his team win. Justin Jefferson had four catches for 30 yards. He can catch four balls for 30 yards walking to his car. With me. Come on, man. well that that that that that's not his fault that's the organization fault everybody don't know how to build a team the quarterback carousel the inconsistency

act quarterback with the starter the starter who continues to keep getting hurt there's always something else something else going wrong with him well hell the more and more the season goes on the more they should be kicking themselves about letting sam donna walk out that almost curse but ain't going to curse they should They should be kicking themselves about letting them down to walk out of that goddamn though. They absolutely should, Ocho.

And being cheap. I mean, think about what they paid it. I think Seattle paid him $30 million, maybe $33 million a year. Gave him some incentives. Can you bump it up to $35.40? That's a bargain. The guy won 14 games for you last year.

So you're going to go with an unproving guy. And look, I get it. We took JJ McCarthy. I had my concerns about McCarthy because they were a running team. Now, the likelihood of, If you're coming into the NFL, you're going to have to throw your way to a championship.

You're not running your way to a championship. Look at all the running quarterbacks. Name me one that's won a championship running a football. Steve Young had to figure out how to throw it from the pocket. My guy, number seven, had to throw from the pocket. Lamar Jackson's won MVP because he's gotten better throwing from the pocket. You've got to throw from the pocket. And so it can, it set up my, like, hold on, y'all taking a guy this eye.

And all he did was basically turn around and hand the ball off to Charbonneau and Corp. And y'all think that's the guy that's going to take. With y'all got Jetta and y'all got all these high-powered weapons and y'all feel comfortable with that? Okay, y'all know more to me. Y'all scouting more than I did. Okay, I get it.

But he stayed, he got injured, he missed his entire year. How many times have you been Nick this year and had to sit out? There's a reoccurring theme. Now, your backup, Carson wins. He got hurt. No, a no surprise there. He's always getting hurt.

And now you got a guy that's kind of bounced around and I don't know what you're expected to get out of. Nine or 16 for 51 yards. He was sacked seven times. But if, look, I think it's only fair that Dan Campbell gets some criticism because we applaud him when he goes forward on fourth down. We applaud him for having this team ready to play.

All I know is this. Brian Flores better be getting some serious consideration. Look at the job that he's done against the Detroit lines and back-to-back week. Now, imagine if you had a quarterback, we'll back it up that that could get backed up by that defense. Yeah. You got, you got Dallas Turner.

You got Van Ginkle. Oh, that defense is legit. Harrison Smith is still playing at the top of this game. Absolutely. Murphy Jr. Just imagine. If you had an offense that can put them in a deficit, that could put you in a deficit more times than not,

instead of you playing from a deficit. Because they know, look, guys, if we fall behind, man, there's a good chance we don't lose. We ain't got an offense that can go get points like that. I mean, the funny thing about it, when you think about it, they got the offense. They just missing one piece.

They're missing the centerpiece. They miss the most important piece. They miss the one that makes the most money for a goddamn reason. The quarterback. Yeah. That's all. That's all they're missing. That's why you understand quarterbacks don't come around that often.

They are very, very, very extremely hard to find. For those in the chat that have been watching the game of football for a very long time, you understand by watching and understanding maybe your team might not have a quarterback and haven't had one for years, you understand how hard they are to come by. So when you get one and you get a small symbolizer, what he can do, which Sam Donald showed you last year, you don't let him walk out the door because you just drafted somebody with a 10 pick in the first round. Not at that price, Ocho.

Not at the price. Now, if you had to pay him 50 plus million. Oh, now, that's different. That's different. That's different. Ocho, you got him for $30 million and plus a couple incentives. Okay, you take us back to you win the division. We'll give you another million dollars.

You make the Pro Bowl, I give you another million dollars. You play 65, 70% of the snaps. I give you another million dollars. I'll incentivize it so he can get to $40 million. So he feels good about himself. Obviously, he's like, man, I won 14 games last year. The team is back. I still got Jetta.

I still got Addison. I got Hawkinson. I got Jones in the back field. I'm good. Offensive lines a little beat up. We're coming and going, but hey, I'm good with that I played behind it last year. I can do it again this year. I don't know what they were thinking.

Quarterbacks don't grow on trees, not good ones. No. Absolutely not. I mean, it's on your grass. I mean, you can find vines and stuff and Kudzu. They spread like wildfire. But really quality stuff, you don't find often. And when you get a quarterback and you've seen his body of work,

so you know his study habits, you know his practice habit, you know how he performs in game situation. I don't know what more you need. You don't know what J.J. McCarthy habits are come game time because he hasn't been in one, not a real game. Okay, his study habits, he hurt. What else can he do? I think they dropped the ball in this, Ocho,

considering what's in that division. You look at what's in that division. Caleb Williams, not going anywhere. Jordan Love is not going anywhere. Jerry Gough has another three, four years, not going anywhere. You're behind. Your defense rivals all of them. But where you lack is your quarterback.

That's the most important thing. Is it? So that's what needs to be. In matter of fact. Ocho, in this game, Jetta, pass Randy Moss 8,375 yards for the most receiving yards by a player

in his first six NFL seasons. Well, he's going to probably be upstairs and say, Hey, man, I need y'all to go get me a quarterback. Because he could have passed it like eight. Because I'm struggling. Ocho, this man struck, come on now, Ocho. 17 games, 17, a receiver getting a thousand yards,

it ain't nothing. That's basically, Ocho, it's basically 62 yards a game. And I'm paying $35 million for six. 62 yards game mocho no and that's not his fault ain't nothing he could do about that because he can't throw it to him damn self you right because but you know what's going to houcho you know what it is hey hey j a j a man you know hey whew i know it's not all your fault ain't none of it you be all my fault ain't none of my fault you know the game you know the game and listen what i do like about what i like about jettas jettling he's pure class on

he pure class you know he say all the right things you put that camera in front of me. You ask him the right question. He's going to give you what you want. He's going to give you everything you want. But I know how he really feel. You can tell it in mannerism. You can tell about you how you walk. You can see it in his eyes, you know, but he'll hold him back. So I'm hoping management does their due diligence in addressing the situation and getting young Bull of quarterback because he's on a historic run. He's on a historic run and going to go down to one of the best they ever played this mother. I almost cursed again. You're going to go down as one of the best they ever played this game and accomplished stuff in such a short amount of time

that not very many have done before. And him not having a quarterback, an adequate quarterback is hurting. It's hurting him. It's hurting him, Ocho. And the thing is, like you said, those historic numbers. And you look at what he, man, missed damn near half the season, came back, got over a thousand yards, made the Pro Bowl. Now he says I played a full season. And you mean to tell me I got to struggle?

I got to go into the last game to get a thousand. yards and y'all uh uh put up his numbers what he what does he have right now they might have to force feed him to get a thousand oh cho you might went out you got me are you muted okay yeah i got you now yeah i mean hold on okay i thought he was at a thousand already i don't know uh hold on let me that far behind he gonna need he need to go into next week and go crazy no he don't need to go crazy he got 947 he's 53 yards short he had 40 tonight so it's not out of the realm of possible okay so is j j jay mccarthy coming back next week if j jay mccarthy

coming back no he fractured he fractured a bone in the throwing hand i don't give a fuck nigga wrap that bitch up come on back he can't grip the ball hand hell he can't throw with his right hey come come on man like i mean well brosmer i mean listen 50 yards they can get they can get it 50 he got to get that thousand yards he has to get that thousand yards i'm sure i'm sure the vikers organization the play caller head coach they're going to make sure he does get it to keep that historic pace and what he's done since he's entered the nfl keep it going and i have one question i want to ask you about the detroit lions chat you guys chat you guys to chime into do we give Dan Campbell any kind of grace do we give him some grace i know we love

his bravado we love the fact that he's very confident in his players his team especially offensive because he's one of the few coaches regards to the analytics regards to what anybody says he always goes for it on four down but do we give him any grace even though this is a fail season right because of the injuries he's had on defense this year no they had those injuries last year and they still did it. I mean, you take the points early. And last week, you're kicking up, you kicking a ball to, to win the game in Pittsburgh. That gets Pittsburgh at home.

His play calling have left something to be the, I mean, hey, let's, let's just call it what it is. I mean, he took on the play calling. And since he's taking on the play calling, they've lost for the last five games. because we show gave him credit. We showed lauded him when they won and he started to take it over the place and he let it be known

that he was taking over to play calling. So no, we don't do no excuses here. Aidan Hutchison is Ben Aiden Hutchison. Jack Campbell was all over the field today. Muhammad doing what Muhammad does all over the field today. The defense didn't play bad. Bro, it's hard to overcome six turnovers.

You're absolutely right. Hey, please tell me, listen, I hate to go back. I want to talk about one play with Hutchinson. Please tell me you saw him do that, that quick step spin. Oh, my God. If you had any doubt, if his leg was, if that leg was healthy. Hey, that moves so smooth. Yeah, yeah.

And quick. Hey, that would nice. That was nice. He got a nice little bag on. He got a nice little toolbox on him. Nice little toolbox. Yeah. And then he got Muhammad on the other side.

Muhammad flush him one side. Hey, it's like a hunting. You know, the porn is going there and flush the game out. I pick him off. Okay, you flush him to the left. I got him. You flush him to the right? I got it.

We work with that. Hey, y'all clapped the pocket inside so he can't step up. He got to come. He got to come. Look here. Ocho, I'm plucking up all the holes. He got to come out of one of these two holes. And I'm, hey, I got Muhammad plug in one

And I got some plug in the other He got nowhere to go Look He got the most yard for the first six years I don't know how much he'll have it Because Chase's right behind him Yeah, you know what I mean those two are going to be neck and neck

throughout the entire career Well, I think Chase's going to pass it because Chase got a quarterback Now I don't know how long chase going to if he wants to stay in whatever that's a that's a discussion for another day but long as he has him he has a decided advantage you got to be careful because look what you just said he has a quarterback now there's only so many teams now they have quarterbacks of that magnitude where you can leave one team to go to the next and that that that production continues to remain the same it ain't

that easy right and you see think about it look at what um Yes. You said whatever you want to say, but first cousin, you protect him. He picked you apart. Surgical. And last year, he had no drop-off because Sam Darnel came in and played extremely well. So he had no drop-off from cousins to Darnel. And then he gets J.J. McCarthy, he gets, uh, uh, wintz, and he gets Balsmer, and you see

a precipit of precipitous drop. That's that's so it hurts me and I'm just watching. It hurts me too, but I don't really know what I don't really know what I don't really know what I don't really know what I don't really know what else we can do what I don't know what else we can do just hope uh keep his head up because you look we've both been in situations like that you more so than me being a wide receiver and and and having a level of expectation than playing to a certain standard and then because people don't really care about the quarterback's. They don't want to see, they see Ocho Sink on the back of that jersey, 85. Well, I don't see no dancing. Why I don't see no sombrero on the sideline? Why, I don't see no, I don't see no jokes anymore. I don't see no antics.

I don't see none of that. What's going on? Hey, I remember. Hey, I remember them. You see what's going on? I remember them days. I remember them days. So, the Dallas Cowboys beat the Washington Commanders by the score of 30 to 23.

I just want to remind everyone how good Rishie Rice was last season. And these three healthy games. He was the wide receiver 2 in fantasy.

I think Rishie Ryshe goes off this week. The Chiefs come on a flip pass to Rice. This side, touchdown! Remandre Stevens is my sleeper this week. This is a matchup where I think I can slide in Stevenson into my flex position and he could deliver double digit points this week. Drake takes the snap, hands it off. Remodry running it right and running into the end zone.

The commanders, the commanders, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, coaders. had 17 first down the commanders ran 18 total plays yet the game ended in the one-score game that press got 19 to 37 307 two touchdown zero intercession but he was sacked six times uh malik davis ran the ball 20 carries 103 yards jaunte william 13 carries 54 yards hunter lupeki uh seven for 30 and and Dike had four for 24, 44 carry for 2.11. Gabonte Turpin here. Her goalpost.

That was a nice though. One catch, 86 yards of touchdown. Pick was reliable. Didn't get a whole lot of opportunities, but he was four for 78. C.D. Lamb was five for 46. Josh Johnson was 15 to 23, 198, no touchdowns. DeCoree Coxon Barrett, 11,

carries seven hundred and five yards dbo had two so they have 16 carries oh chos yeah 16 carries for 138 yards so this is why people ask them man i don't know how the cowboys missed the playoff the cowboys got a 4,000 yard rush a passer two 1,000 yard receivers a thousand yard rusher and they can hope to be 500 because the defense when you got a defense that does stuff like this they they won't tackle they they won't tackle they they don't tackle they look they need to get linebackers they need to get middle backers those they got the guy from Cincinnati I'm sorry Ocho there's a reason what think about it you think Cincinnati going to let go no sir no sir they had here listen Murray yeah younger players in front of them that were better on

that's all it was they got they got a mode on them they stay sideline the sideline they faster they're a little better in coverage there's so many factors they're going to play when they let when they let certain people go okay you don't fit the system anymore you don't fit the system and what we like to do probably still a good player you probably still a good player in the right situation it just wasn't a good fit there um they need they need a yunk the cowboys i'm not a gm unc i'm not a scout but i understand football i've been i've been watching it long enough i've been i mean i played it long enough i've played it all my life you know the cowboys they need a difference maker on that line you get you one all we need is one chat you

just need one get you a difference make on that line uh in huh and get you something in that on that back end on that third level come on now we can come to the party you need you got to bring your own drink they're gonna let you in get you in and get you somebody on that third level man i ain't talking about just know anybody somebody decent somebody of quality high quality man you're gonna be all right cap ohcho cowboy fan let's be real since the Ron Blan got paid. He's still bawling. He heard. That's not fair.

That man was, what do you mean? Okay, okay, okay. He might have been hurt today, but I'm talking about leading up to this year. Trayvon Diggs, he's injured. He hadn't been the same. He had a great year. And you heard Jerry talk about it.

Jerry says sometimes he likes to get outside of the scheme. Okay, you can get outside of the scheme. But if you get outside of the scheme, but if you get outside, out of the scheme, what must you do, Ocho? You got to make plays. See, he's a feast of famine corner. He don't get you, but he's going to give up. You know what I do like to?

And why are you on the top of digs? Like when I think about DBs and NFL, and this goes for all of them, because you have to understand, if you make one mistake, if you're out of position, it's a touchdown. Every time.

Yes. That's how the NFL works. But what I like about DBs, and this goes for every single one, 95% of the DBs, they play this game not to get beat. There's 5%

that play to make a play. There's a difference in the two. And it's only two categories. You plan not to get beat and the other 5% they plan to make a play. Trayvon Diggs in that 5%.

Now sometimes they're going to get him. But the other times he turned that ball. all over and it's going the other way most of the time for six i think the problem is is that you got to know when to do it yeah yeah you're right you right because you get the best ride to get the situation and you go for it and you let's just say you tie it in a top six see that's what's going to happen um um and we're going to talk about this a little later i think quentin Williams phenomenal

20 means the deserve to go to the Pro Bowl he didn't he didn't he went to the Pro Bowl you say he did no he did he did not earn the right he's going he Chicago fans y'all know him going to the Pro Bowl is a carryover for what he was doing with the Jets

nothing nothing yeah nothing nothing Nothing, nothing, nothing. Let's be real, Chad. Hold on.

I don't got, hey, listen, I don't have his numbers in front of me. I don't have his numbers in front of me, so I'm not sure what he was doing, but he went to the pro bowl for a reason. You got to understand, it's the players that vote on that. So the players see something in Quinn and Williams, based on what he was doing with the Jets, as bad as they were. He came over here in the trade to the Cowboys, and they still voted him in.

So they voted men in for reasons. He got to be doing something. He's making some kind of noise in them trenches. I don't be in the trenches, huh? My last time in the trenches was back in 1983. I hear in Liberty City. Now, them trenches on that football field between them white lines, I don't really, I don't really play in there.

I don't play in there. But I know Quentin Williams like that. Talk to me. Can I interest you for two or a half sax? Take your time. Wait a minute. Hold on, hold on, hold on. He's a run stopper now.

He's not, he's not Aaron Donald. He's not, he's not going to give that. He's not, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no. no no no so so hold on i'm trying to find so what no no he's not played a bit of runstopper jerry said he can get after the quarterback no jerry landed they jerry laughed through his teeth yes he did uh hold on in 2020 oh look this is what your run stopper you say yeah run stopper in 2020 he has seven sacks in 2021 he has six sacks in 2022 he had 12 sacks in 23 he had five and a half

sacks last year he has six sacks so you want you want to take that back talk to me talk Wait, take your time. Take your time. He's the deep. He got two and a half facts. Damn. Hey, he had a down year, huh? Yes.

You're right. You right. You right. Hey, probably, probably he meant me, uh, the jet situation probably took an emotional toll on him. Hey, he's an, hey, he's a, uh, he's, hey, he's nice though, uh, he's nice, he nice. Listen, I know this season has been up and down. I've seen him be nice. I'm just saying he wasn't Ocho.

And see, that's the thing. This is the part that I hate about the Pro Bowl. Because I've been there before. We'll get it, but we'll talk about this. We'll come back to this. We'll come back to this. The Cowboys, look, Dak is going to end up with a phenomenal season.

They're going to debate and see if they play him tomorrow. Ocho, that man got hit six. That man got sacked six times. Six. And he got, he got been a couple of times. I was like, whoa, damn, damn, Dad. Ooh, I got to be careful. So they're going to wait, they're going to look at this.

Because the last thing you want to do, oh, you're not going nowhere. And I know that wants to play. But do I want him to play behind this offensive line? Oh, y'all asking me how many tackles he got? 17 on the season. I'm just going by what the stats say. Regular season said he got,

Hold on, let me say, he got more than 17, 17, 17 tackles on the season, huh? Hold on, get a second, Ocho. Hey, you got to understand too, that young bull taking on that double team, that too, boy. Oh, Cho, Ocho, I'm paying you twitching me. So, so what's Jeffrey Simmons doing? Ooh, hey.

What's Brown from Carolina doing? What's Jordan Davis? Jalen Carter nor Quentin Williams, earned the right to go to the Pro Bowl over Jordan Davis. Jordan Davis has outplayed him. He has. Jordan Davis has been phenomenal this year. Yeah, he has.

No, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a TV watcher. And I know what a defensive tackle is supposed to be. I played the game long enough and I watched the game closely enough. You don't know a three technique, a five technique, a seven, a wide nine, a cowboy. You don't know any of that. You don't know what a shade. You don't know what the under tackle is. Y'all just talking.

Y'all know. y'all watch the stat line i can tell you when he's in the shade when he's in the free tech a five a seven a hard night a wide knot a cowboy come on talk to him on i know all of that i know when they're playing cover five cover six quarters temper two yeah cloud yeah yeah y'all y'all y'all y'all testing your football knowledge against the wrong guy fuck wrong with y'all With that being said, Jordan Davis from the Philadelphia Eagles. Think about it, Ocho. Jaylon Carter missed the last three games.

He did. Jordan Davis got more sacks, more tackles than both of them. As a matter of fact, he got more sacks than both of those guys combined. I'm not saying they're not phenomenal players. They just didn't. this year go this year this this is the year see oh cho this what i say it's got pro bowl can't be a lifetime achievement of thing it's got to be year to year did you play well enough this year to earn the right to go to the pro bowl let's be real chat let's be put all the things aside

do y'all believe jordan carter and quinny williams had a better season than jordan davis go back and watch the tape since y'all say y'all watch the watch the watch the tape and you tell me if quinnon williams and jalen carter had a better season than jordan davis i defy you you're so good hey you got there you um you got that lick in your system boy you got the look at your system boy you but i'm gonna tell the truth i'm gonna tell the truth i will really tell the truth now go ahead let it rip now go ahead and let it rip we good because you know what they say oh cho drunk angry people

and kids yes they will so i ain't got no troy let it out let it out tonight we ain't got nothing but time i'm just go go back and watch the tape forget the stats go back and watch and you'll see who making plays for the eagles and the de-tackles is it jalen carter or is it jordan davis go back and watch queen and williams tape and go back and watch jordan davis's tape it ain't close it's not close oh cho tensions are reportedly heating up between lamar jackson and the raven's front office teetering on the edge of making or missing the playoff the baltimore ravens are possibly playing a crucial week 17 game without lamar who's dealing with a back injury that he sustained in week 16 Baltimore columnist mike preston published a piece

detailing a level of friction between the organization in particular lamar's conditioning and his handful of injuries this season and a length of return from each of them. Preston also the idea that the Ravens should look at every option with Lamar this offseason, adding that Lamar would love to play in Miami. Ian Rappaport reported, well, where this goes, it doesn't feel like to me there's a little bit of inflection point. Lamar had the opportunity to re-up this contract before the off-season at the time, And a lot of people thought that he would. Did not happen.

The Ravens are at very least have some things to figure out about, and some relationships to discuss in the off season. I'm not saying there's anything that's going to blow up, but at least there need to be some conversation about how everything, how everyone can move forward together. Hey, young. Hey, chat. How would Mike Preston know that there are issues going on with Lamar in the front office?

I ain't said nothing. I'm just going to let whatever happens happens. I'm going to let it happen because, see, if I say something, I hate the brother. So I'm going to let it play out. I said it earlier. Chat, listen to me. Listen to me. Anytime a reporter says something, I saw a lot of Ravens fans when I commented on the article and said,

well, if they don't appreciate you, Lamar, come on down here to Miami. We appreciate you back in the house. Everybody jumped on my head. I told me, oh, don't listen to Mike pressing. That's fake news. I know what he's talking about. I know you guys not might like him as a reporter.

But one thing they don't do is they will never write anything or say anything where their credibility is not intact. It is coming from in-house. Anything he writes, anything he's saying

is coming from in-house. Listen to me. As much as y'all love Lamar, I love Lamar too. I can only see number eight that young bull out of Pompano. I can only see number eight in the Ravens.

in Jersey but this game this game they do in leaking information purposely to the media and then the media writes certain stuff and you kind of wonder oh he just writing it out of nowhere no it's coming from inside the building they do this on purpose this is the game they play they do this

all the time they're not just Lamar Jackson to all the great players when things aren't going well when the season doesn't go the way it should go oh maybe it's time we do this oh maybe it's time they do it to everybody and now it's his turn. So I'm just like just a thought of it,

just a thought of a two-time MVP, one of the best top three, top five quarterbacks in the NFL, you know, someone writing the article and him being somewhere else, it's a possibility. It is as much as, as much as we love him. I'm just telling you this is the way it works. The front office, the organization, always leaks stuff like this

just to get the fucking ball rolling. Always. Ocho, they got, I said, look, Lamar's been injured. Lamar's not injured. I say, well, he missed five games in 21. He missed five games in 22. He's already missed three games this. There's a possibility he'll miss one or more games the rest of the season.

So that'll be five games. So that'll be five, five and five. Now, the thing is, is that when you pay a quarterback that kind of money, you know the best availability. Availability. Availability. and look, it's not, you know, I don't know anything about the conditioning

or anything like that. And maybe, maybe it hasn't reached that boiling point in which Mike, because I know Mike, I was in Baltimore, maybe it hasn't reached that point of no return. But maybe they're like, well, damn. Ugh. Oh, damn. They're going to make a decision, oh, I mean, he got a cap here probably like $70 million probably next year.

What's his cap? Hold on. What's his cap here? Probably 73 or 74. No, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, yes, I believe Lamar. I believe he tweaked his hamstring. I believe, I saw him get need in the back. Yes, no, I do not think Lamar Jackson is faking.

I've never thought he was thinking about an injury. No, his back hurt. The guy need the hell out of him in his back. Them knees hurt. Ain't a whole lot of padding back there in your back. There's not. But they're going to have to make some tough decisions. They're going to have to make some tough decision.

Zayflower was making the pro ball again, Ocho? That's $28 million. That's $28 million. If you pick up the 50 option. What do you think? They've got some tough decisions to make. This roster has gotten old. They've let it get old.

It did. Hey, it's the, what side of the ball is all on? Not, not the office aside. The defense has gotten old, but the office doesn't have the, the playmakers, okay, likely it's gonna be gone. Because they did, they, they.

redid Andrews. They redid Andrews. They redid Andrews. Bateman, I don't know. I don't know what to say about it. I like, I like, I don't know. Oh, Joe. I mean, what, would you, think about this. What are you looking for based on the type of offense that they run? Bateman's not going to be your Jamar Chase, you Justin Jefferson, putting up those type of numbers because they don't use them in that manner. They don't use them in that fashion. You know, when the opportunity to do present themselves, he makes the place. So it's kind of hard for him based on the off, based on the offense that he's in, he doesn't get the volume of targets that other receivers get, he gets to showcase what he can do. Now, that's not fair.

Ocho. Ocho, here's the stats. New England, no catches. Pittsburgh, two catches. Cincinnati, no catches. Minnesota, one catch. Miami, two catches. Chicago, two catches. L.A., one catch. Houston, no catch. Casey, one catch. Detroit, five. catches. Cleveland, two catches. Buffalo. I mean, I just, I just, I just explained to you perfectly. I just, I just, I just said it, baby. I say, I can't, I can't put it no, no better than I just did. He can only do what's asked of him. You know, you can't produce unless you have opportunity. Huh? And, and they, I mean, Zay got more, got more fumbles than touchdown.

That's not a good stat, Ocho. That's not. The man got more funnels than touchdown. Hey, they're having a down year, um. They ain't having a down year, baby. They haven't, but I'll tell you what, if the, if the, if the, listen, um, you know how, you know, I love my Raven fans. Hey, yes.
