Starting point is 00:00:30 If you smell What the whole Winson is cooking We are Millie-Vinilly man We're Millie Vanilly I've got some I've got some good news I've got some bad news parts
Starting point is 00:00:44 You're gassing me? No absolutely now Of course not Of course not If anyone is to blame here It's myself So we'll get into that But first of I do want to
Starting point is 00:00:53 I do want to mention There is a crack in the armor Of Hayes and bros right now The fact that they took the Colts when Bill Cower was giving a pregame speech to the squad and they were honoring is it the 05 Steelers team and they don't know that information
Starting point is 00:01:12 you think that that team being in the building is not going to inspire Aaron Rogers and the Steelers to at least cover let alone win these guys are Muppets but the problem is I've been terrible 12 and 14 you see the record there so the reality is parts I had to go and really look myself in the mirror and be like, what is going on this year? I'm clearly not seeing the board.
Starting point is 00:01:33 So I went out and hired my own guy. I got my own Al's a brother version of Al's bro. His name's Pudge. Pudgy's Picks. So I've got Pudgy's Picks coming in. You have a guy named Pudge. You're claiming a foxhole guy now for your team. We're going to give him a shot tonight. I spoke to him earlier. I said I'm not seeing the board. This is a must win tonight. I love it. This is a must win. Listen, Dude, let me ask you this, though. Are you going to reveal Pudgy or no? Tonight, no, but if he hits this, I think I'm going to be honest to you, my Pudge I've known since kindergarten.
Starting point is 00:02:09 I've known Pudge for a very long time. Oh, you don't, dude, it's Dugie. No, it's not doogie. It's not Dugie. Pudge loves the hack darts. He's living in La Salle, Ontario right now. He's my absolute guy. All right.
Starting point is 00:02:21 I think I'm going to ride with Pudge's pick tonight. Pudgy's picks. Okay, man. Well, listen. I think he's dangerous. game, a guy that played in the league is going to lean on a man named Pudgy.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Now, just so you know, Pudge's skin and bones, all right? So there's kind of a play on words here. But we need a spark parts. We need a spark. Oh, dude. I get it, man. I get it. We're losing to the two biggest losers of all time. Yeah, what I'm doing right now,
Starting point is 00:02:50 and I know Toronto fans are mad at me, but I'm bringing in Miguel Rojas in game six. I'm just looking for a play. That's what I'm doing. Dangerous. We understand. to start playing that game. We don't need that talk. They hate us enough already.
Starting point is 00:03:01 Dangerous. That's stupid. Dangerous. No, I'll say this. We came into the week on Thursday down eight. The ball's in our court. I said, we've got to peel one back per week. The ball's in our court tonight.
Starting point is 00:03:12 We've got to get this done. It's a must win tonight. If we can get it to seven, we're one better than we were coming into last week. So let's get it done tonight, parts. And I think Pudge has got us right. Okay. Well, listen, we've got you guys in a blender, man.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Al's brother, I'm sure, has his feet up, lighting a cigar right? now listening to this because we're in the driver's seat, we feel very good about where things stand, and yesterday you guys, I told you I said, do not bet against Josh Allen at home. Do not do it in the regular season.
Starting point is 00:03:41 The playoffs is a different beast, but Alan, I just looked up on Fandoley's plus 150, heavy favorite to win the MVP, and I think it's because of you look who's around them. You know, like Mahomes is there, there's, you know, Danny Dimes is not winning an MVP. Indiana
Starting point is 00:03:57 Jones. on, man. He's not winning the MVP. He's one bad week, and now a sudden he can't win the MVP. That's what I'm telling you. I'm telling you he's not going to. His performance yesterday cost him the MVP. Agreed.
Starting point is 00:04:06 It wasn't a good day, but if this guy, they don't have a tough division. If this guy rattles off a bunch more wins, he'll be in the conversation. Conversation fine. There's a recent-sy bias here. We weren't talking about Josh Allen win an MVP until last night's performance or last afternoon. But listen, he's still had a really good year. He's put up numbers. And the MVP, it's a projection because there's still nine games to be played.
Starting point is 00:04:27 Yeah, fair. I just, I look at the way he played yesterday. I, you know, I saw him on the podium. I heard you and Jay talking about him. That guy just sounded. Flotted. He sounded like he was so dialed in. It did, you know, and it was funny because when I heard him,
Starting point is 00:04:41 I had never heard that term either, the term slotted. But just his demeanor, he's always been a candid interview, I find. You know, you don't feel like he's putting on a show. You just feel like he's authentic. At least that's my vibe on the guy. When he's, that interview, and I, like you said, I said on Jay yesterday, I just felt like it was like the assassin
Starting point is 00:05:01 is back. You know, he comes out there yesterday and obviously Cook had a big day, but quietly he throws her 273, runs two in, throws one, has three total incompletions, and didn't even need to break out the Superman vibe. Like he was just
Starting point is 00:05:17 chilling back there and control looking everything, you know, going through his progressions. I, and I, this isn't a stretch for me. I thought as a team, not just Josh, That was the biggest statement performance I have seen the Bills team make in the last five years. It was the most complete game I've seen in play. So what about the Chiefs? Do you like them or what was five and four?
Starting point is 00:05:41 I still like the Chiefs. You know, I'm not going to sit here and say that I don't think that they're an incredible team. But it was, you know, a bit shocking how they just got utterly dominated. I thought the final score, the 28-21, was not indicative of how. badly they were dominated in all three phases yesterday. You look at Mahomes' numbers. Fifteen of 34, like the guy has an under
Starting point is 00:06:05 50% completion percentage, and a lot of those 15 were off-schedule, miracle style, very slim margin of error, sorry, very slim margin of success plays. Like, he was running around like crazy. They did nothing really
Starting point is 00:06:21 well, and it wasn't like he didn't have all his weapons. You know, the whole O-line thing started to rear head a bit. I don't think it's, again, as much as I want to blame the Chiefs, I just thought the bills, I'm not sure you can play much better. They ran the ball well, they passed the ball well, and they played defense extremely well. So, Marks, let me ask you this. What the hell would happen in a pressure playoff game if these two meet again and why Mahomes would move on and not Josh? Tell me.
Starting point is 00:06:48 That's the thing is, you know, Josh's performance yesterday. He always seems to have Spags this kind of number. He's been very good against the Chiefs, even in the playoffs. He understands what's going on. He's been great against that squad. The difference yesterday was generally speaking, Mahomes torches the defense. It becomes a shootout, and it's kind of like a last person to have the ball-type vibe or whoever gets the best bounce slash the one big turnover,
Starting point is 00:07:13 where yesterday, you know, even the bounce of Prater hitting the field goal at the end of the game, the bill's just flat out dominated. So I'll say this. The bill's defense to me was really the unsung hero, this thing in the most shocking ordeal if they want to beat Mahomes in the playoffs they're going to need to have another performance like that
Starting point is 00:07:32 and as I'm giving the bills all their flowers right now I will say the worst thing that happened to Buffalo was the Oakville Ontario native Mike I believe it's Mike Hoyt it sounds like it's in Achilles um no he just came back didn't he?
Starting point is 00:07:48 He just came back and you lose that all over for the season and I was very worried about that but you got him off the I think he had a PD issued Is that sound right? He had a drug test ordeal. And then it sounds like he's going to be out for a substantial amount of time. I thought Mike Hoy was everywhere while he was playing yesterday.
Starting point is 00:08:07 And Bosa looked great as well. So that's another big loss you feel for Buffalo. It's like, man, just when you feel like, wow, what a statement, what a game, defense looked great. And the youngster corner looked awesome. It's like, man, we just lost another key piece of this defense. Well, you know, the injuries are huge. I'm looking at Fando again the odds for winning the Super Bowl
Starting point is 00:08:29 the Chiefs are still favored at plus 550 I get it like this is the thing you guys asking with the Chiefs I'll tell you the biggest news in that division this week was Joe Alt Joe Alt when he was playing the tackle for the Chargers when he was playing this season that was a completely
Starting point is 00:08:45 different offense they ran the ball much better they looked completely under control and it sounds like again Joe Alt's going to be gone for a significant period of time the injuries are crazy man. They're crazy. Tucker Kraft done for Green Bay. That's a massive like that loss yesterday was so inexcusable.
Starting point is 00:09:01 Matt Lefleur is getting destroyed. He should. He should. It was horrendous coaching. You can't lose to that team. You cannot lose to Carolina. What about the jerseys though? Did you like the coloring? No. Not really. Everything I thought it sucked. Everything was awful. I am, I might be in the minority
Starting point is 00:09:17 here. I kind of like them. I'm over this whole NFL jersey thing right now. Like back in the day when I'm playing, it's like, man, And we had our homes, we had her away. It's a money grab, man. Everybody's got to have three and four jerseys, these specialty jerseys. I can't stand it.
Starting point is 00:09:34 You know, it went from like three jerseys, one like alternate, one home, one away, to like, now there's the Thursday night color rush. Now there's the throwback. Now there's the throwback. Even if you don't, like you're the Arizona Cardinals, you don't have a throwback, we'll just make a sandstorm jersey. This is our city-connected jersey. Correct.
Starting point is 00:09:52 You're driving me nuts. What color was that? Is that copper? What was the color? The helmets were, wow. The helmets were just stupid. But it looked, I was, on my screen, it looked brown or copper, and I was trying to figure out what it was.
Starting point is 00:10:06 But I kind of was like, all right. All right, you're into it. That's fine. They didn't play well enough. Well, they lost to terrible Carolina team. Keep pounding. Panthers, keep pounding. They're better than sitting their credit.
Starting point is 00:10:18 But the point I'm making is craft out is huge. Huge. And, you know, not alone. like obviously jaden Daniels probably done for the year i haven't seen an update today now that washington wasn't making the playoffs i don't think you know they they've been a huge disappointment this year but you talk about the flashbacks in that area with the rg3 stuff like rg3 had that magical rookie season and then he just ran into injuries and the team stunk around them and it was terrible and now daniels you know had the same thing last year and in the playoffs he was so clutch
Starting point is 00:10:54 This year he's had a lot of injuries, and now I've got to think he's done for the year. That looked gruesome last night. The team's old, and they're not very good. And if you're in Washington, you're probably thinking, what the hell is going to happen now? Yeah, it's not good. It's really bad. I'll say this. There's a lot of people in line being like, why is you even playing?
Starting point is 00:11:13 That I thought was ridiculous. You know, I spoke about this with Jay yesterday. There's seven and a half minutes left, and you're on the five-yard line. You score that. You're down 24, so you need three scores. The percent chance of you winning is less than one. I understand that. But with seven and a half minutes left, we have heard of crazier things.
Starting point is 00:11:33 You get a turnover, you go for two, and now all of a sudden it's a 16-point game. It's extremely unlikely. I'm not delusional. But you can't sit there if you're Dan Quinn and be like, yeah, we're probably not going to win. It's a very high chance, but let's just quit. Let's just take our starter out. You can't do that. so I feel for Dan Quinn
Starting point is 00:11:54 you talk about the commanders they're jammed they're jammed not as bad as we are parts because we're going to come back and find a way to win this thing pudgy. Pudgy's picks is going to get us right starts tonight but I'll say this if Pudge goes on a heater
Starting point is 00:12:16 wait until we get Pudge on this show you guys are going to yeah but I'll say this. I expect like this little circus carny with no tarp on and a hairy chest and just like a legend. Hack and darts. Yeah, he's a legend. All right.
Starting point is 00:12:30 We'll see, man, because the game tonight. This is not an easy game. It is for punch. Okay. This guy's betting on a third level Italian soccer. Okay. All right. This is the type of guy that I've got called.
Starting point is 00:12:43 I had to go to the bullpen, you know? Well, it's Dallas Land 3 at home against Arizona. I have not seen if, I don't think Murray's playing tonight, but I know it was like questionable maybe he could um how's that a tough game for you hayes by just because dallas's defense is horrendous horrendous and if you look at arizona yes they've lost a lot of games and a lot of games in a row i believe five in a row or four in a row they're generally tight games that they lose like they're actually not like getting blown out and it's dallas man it's dallas and it's the cowboys and it's their defense hards hit them with the info
Starting point is 00:13:22 go ahead make the pick well that there is some there's a caveat the to the pudge uh parts pudge is a man a few words oh yeah pudge is a man a few words the response said i would take dallas a three and a half seems like an easy one they're better at home than on the road okay that was all he got not a ton of tremendous information in there listen this guy's scaring the hell this guy has no idea what he's doing yeah i'm telling you this guy bets on Syria, Che, or C, whatever you want to call it. That's fine, but we're not playing.
Starting point is 00:13:55 This guy's up at 5 a.m. in the morning. You know, like, we're not playing the Italian Soccer League right now. This guy's going to come in. He's going to close the gap until I get my head on straight, and then we're going to ride. Okay, so you're laying the points. You're taking Dallas time. We're taking the boys tonight. All right, because it's minus three.
Starting point is 00:14:12 It's not three and a half. I want that pointed out. Oh, for sure. That's better for us. It's better for us. Yeah, yeah. Three is good. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Wow. Thank you, Duggy. Very concerning. I think that would probably be where Al's brother and I might lean with Dallas at home, but I don't think this is a guarantee at all. Listen, I'm telling you right now, Al's brothers had his first good season ever right now. You know, he's usually terrible. When you think about it, the first ever.
Starting point is 00:14:37 Yeah, yeah, which it's one of those years. And I thought, who is a better, more sophisticated gambler that I know than Al's brother? And I had to go to my guy Pudge. And once again, I've known him. If you were to be on here right now, he'd have a sig in his mouth, he'd be on his computer. looking at gambling line. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:14:54 Let's see what happens, man. This could be the quickest hook of all time. Like, if Cardinals win big tonight, this guy gets launched. Gone, gone, gone. He'll never hear this. I'm not talking to him, but he's gone. Very fair. But I think Pudge is here to say.
Starting point is 00:15:10 Okay. All right. Desperate, man. Like, it's desperate. You guys, we were one and won this weekend, and we had a team meeting today, talking about how unacceptable that is for us. Listen. Like, we lost a game and we're not happy.
Starting point is 00:15:21 If you won Thursday, we, the Chiefs jammed us, I still think that was the right pickle and I knew it based on the information. We should have known better with the Colts that at some point, at some point, like their season was too easy. At some point they were going to get smacked. I will say, being a tough game. My boy, also a friend of Pudge,
Starting point is 00:15:38 did text me before the Steelers game and gave me, shout out Nick Carotta, they're listening right now in Windsor, gave me the information. He's like, dude, I'm telling you right now, there's no way the Steelers don't cover the spread. With Bill Cower in particular. Yeah, he, this guy has, Heinz Ward's glove in his bedroom
Starting point is 00:15:53 All right These are my homies, man He's an inspiring guy Yeah Give him credit where credit is due Hey parts We get this one and I get to seven They choke on Thursday
