Well, guys, we didn't get much defense tonight, Ocho.

We had a very entertaining game.

If you like offense, if you like points, this was the game for your liking.

Both quarterbacks played outstanding.

Jordan Love, 31 of 43, 337 passing yards, three touchdowns, clean game, zero interceptions.

One sack.

Dak Prescott, 30 of 40, 319, three touchdowns, no interceptions.

One sack, clean game.

Green Bay rushed the ball 35 times for a buck 64.

The Cowboys rushed the ball 26 times for a buck 17.

If you like offense, this was the game for you.

If you wanted to see some defense, I'm sorry.

You'll have to wait the next week.

Very interesting ball game.

I don't really have a lot to complain about.

Only thing I will question, Ocho, is Matt LaFleur right before the half.

The last two possessions

before the half, Ocho, you struggled offensively.

Now, if you reverse it, you struggle your first two drives.

Now, the last three drives, you do what you did.

I agree with him going for it.

But after you struggle, struggle, you don't do that.

But other than that, I got no qualms with what happened tonight.

What did you like about what you saw and what you didn't like?

Hey, honestly, when the game started, it was a doozy.

I thought it was going to be boring.

I thought it was going to be a blowout.

Uncle was 12-2.

I think we have 12-20.

13-2.

Yeah.

I mean, something like that.

I'm like, well, listen, when the Packers got the ball again on their third offensive series, I said if they go up again, and get the get to 20, I'm going to bed and taking me a nap because there's no way.

I'm being honest.

There's no way the Cowboys Cowboys are going to be able to come back, especially I think it was the first quarter they had, what, 60 yards of offense,

something like that.

But obviously, it turned out to be a very good game, a very entertaining game from the end of the second quarter on into the third and fourth.

And listen, Romeo Dobbs, he had his coming out party tonight.

He had, if we didn't know who quarter, who was receiver number one was for the

Packers, we know now.

Romeo Dobbs showed out the night and played one hell of a game.

Deck Prescott, God damn, why am I talking so fast?

Dak Prescott played a phenomenal game.

George Piggins.

George Pickens looked very good tonight.

Made some really clutch plays.

Some dope stuff.

Showing what he can do with the ball.

If you put it in his hands, he doesn't always have to be a deep ball.

He has that ability to have that yak as well.

Outside of that, man, they ran the both teams, ran the ball well.

They were well balanced with the run and the pass.

And I enjoyed it.

I hope Josh Jacobs was okay, though.

I hope he's okay.

Yeah.

I hope you guys took my little thing I did today.

You see what I did.

You know, I told Micah going to get a sack.

I said

Indiana Jones wasn't going to throw for two touchdowns.

What's my other pick?

Yeah, Jalen Hurts is going to have more than a yard.

I knew that.

Easy.

That was the only thing, Ocho, I agree with you.

I mean, look, Cowboys, I mean, both teams.

You laughed at me when I said, Ocho, I'm not so sure.

I mean, I like the addition for the Michael going to the Packers.

Right.

But I asked, I said, Ocho, are you sure they're better than the Rams?

Yeah, they're better than the Rams.

Are you sure?

I'm going to ask you again, Ocho.

Are you sure?

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I don't remember you asking me about them being better than the Rams.

Yes, because I would say the Eagles and I say I would put the Rams in front of the Packers.

And you said, no, no, no.

And so I asked again.

I'm going to ask you one more time.

Right.

I'm going to give you this.

Now, if we're doing a comparison now offensively, it's a toss-up.

You can go either way.

Now, if we're going to go from a defensive standpoint.

You got to go from a team standpoint.

Well, then I would go with the Rams because defensively, they're a little better.

Okay.

A little better.

If they've been together, it's going to take Micah some time to get worked in.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'll be, I'm looking at both defenses.

Yeah.

If I'm defensive coordinators, I will watch the tape, but I'm not going to show it to the team.

Because what am I going to show, Ocho?

I mean, really, what am I going to show?

I let the guy go 31 to 43, 337, three touchdowns, zero interceptions.

I let the other guy go 31 to 40, 319, three touchdowns, zero interceptions.

What am I showing?

Right.

I'm looking at Hobbes.

I think he's number 21 for the Packers.

Ocho, he damn near backpedal out the end zone.

You do realize if you allow the guy to catch the ball in the end zone and you tackle him it's still a touchdown yeah bro how far are you gonna back up yeah you can't you can't keep backing up you're in the end oh joe you got he has to understand where he is on the field right you take two steps that's it i'm not backing up anymore now you got to come through me if anything you shouldn't move at all If I'm putting your heels on the goal.

No, I'm not giving that up.

Because he had just got out flanked because they ran a switch and he had outside leverage and they got him on the outside.

So I said, okay, fine.

You had outside leverage.

i give him that but you can't let a tight end run no bull that bull jive slant route and you keep backing up and you a corner

corners that let tight let if that's uh

who uh if that's kiddo if that's one of these upper echelons and i'm not saying i like ferguson i've liked him since he's gotten there but corners you let tight ends beat you on slant rides at the goal line yeah you ain't gonna be in the league long bro

that you'll be bouncing around that can't happen that can't happen but other than that like I said, I don't know where we go.

I mean, I love George.

Boy,

that thing raised a thing.

Ultra, what the hell was he thinking?

You just kicked that last play.

At the end of the game?

Yes.

That clock management almost hurt him now.

They almost lost that game based on the clock management.

He was trying to get everybody to the line.

Obviously, it worked out.

All you do, Ultra, why would you attempt to pass in that situation?

And what happened if they had scored that touchdown, huh?

Then what?

What happened if they got that pick?

Then what?

Okay, well, listen, that's the chance.

Hey, listen, that's the chance.

Because at that point in time, they was already playing for the field goal.

Yeah,

yeah.

Look, I'm taking as much time off the clock as I possibly can.

Because, look, Cowboys had their possession.

We've got our possession.

We don't want to give them the ball back with any time on the clock.

Okay, I get all of that.

Yeah.

But he has to be smarter.

You see, the coach is late, like, bro, what you doing?

Yeah.

I mean,

I think he was trying to try to plan.

I'm trying to play hero ball.

We know if we get a field goal, the game ends in the tie.

I'm going to take one more shot and try to leave a second, maybe two on the clock and see if we can kick a field goal to win it.

If I didn't know better, I swear that guy had some ties, the Green Bay, that clock guy.

Boy, that was the longest.

They were like.

Hey.

I mean, you know, let's see, Jordan Love lost the fumble.

So

11 tackles, Quay Walker.

I just, oh, y'all, honestly, I just don't know.

Right.

Because Iberflues, the defensive coordinator for the Cowboys, he doesn't like to bring pressure.

And I just don't know if how, I don't know how you survive in today's game if you let the guy just sit back there and pat the ball.

And this is the funny thing.

They playing,

they got four.

They only bringing four.

They're not listening to nobody.

They play in zone.

And when you play a team, like the Packers and you run that zone and not get no pressure, it just stretches everything out.

Defensively, it stretches everything out and the holes is big as hell.

Yep.

And all the players got to do, you can go right down the field and just pick them apart.

Jordan Love can be surgical, which he was tonight.

He was surgical because you're not getting enough pressure to get goddamn Jordan Love off his spot, rushing throws, or whatever you need to do to throw the timing of that offense off.

And

that's what happened.

Somebody got to add some pressure.

I was hoping your Davion Clowney made some type of impact tonight.

um he really wasn't as effective as you'd like him to be uh but but listen it was it was a great game if you like offense if you like points as far as defenses go as far as defense goes that that that it was a no-show tonight on both sides of the ball this is the best i mean look the cowboys could ill afford to lose this game i mean ties look ties like kissing a beautiful woman through a screen right

there ain't really really nothing going on though you could just say that was a beautiful woman on the other side but did you really touch her?

Is she real or was that AI?

No moral victories.

No moral victories.

Yeah, so in a situation, it's not a loss.

So all things being equal,

I'd rather be one, two, and one

as opposed to one and three.

Yeah.

Let's be real.

And we'll see where it comes down.

Hey, that tie might come in and it might help you.

Down the road, but you couldn't, you couldn't, you couldn't go down.

You couldn't be one and three and the Eagles are four and oh.

Ooh.

The Eagles are four and oh hey i can't wait till we get to that game but go ahead god damn uh

but you know look the cowboys george picking showed why

uh

tolbert made a heck of a play i thought that he was trying to throw the ball out i thought he was trying to throw the ball away too out of battle yep yep

and

somehow tolbert came down with it uh Turpin made a couple of plays.

Yeah.

I mean, look, they got guys,

Lennoy, He stepped up and made some plays.

I mean, guys stepped up and made plays for the Cowboys tonight, and that's what they needed offensively.

They needed guys to step up.

With CD being out, they needed everybody to step up.

George Pickens,

show us why you want $30 plus million dollars a year for a receiver.

Show us why.

He showed you eight, four bucks, 34, two touchdowns on 11 targets.

Jalen Tobard was a high draft pick.

He got some opportunities.

In a situation like this, Ocho, this is when you get opportunities in this moment.

This is where you show, man, we can count on him.

Yeah,

I believe they always thought they knew they could count on George Pickens because of what he's did in Pittsburgh.

He just needed to change the scenery.

He needed to clear the deck, go some plays, get a fresh start, start all over again.

But these other guys, you see Tobert, you see Turpin, you see Flenoy,

those guys stepping up and making plays.

Me, the only thing I can say with Green Bay,

get Golden more involved.

He got too much speed not to be involved, Ocho.

He got too much, he got too much speed, Ocho.

Hey, you got to understand, right?

If as fast as he is, as dynamic as he is, with speed like that, if they felt comfortable putting him in more in positions to make more plays,

they would have him doing them.

There is something

when you have a player like that,

with that kind of speed,

you use them.

So obviously,

there might be things that we don't know about that we can't see where they feel okay he's not really good at this so we're going to have him in certain situations doing some of the things that we know he's good at right because

romeo dubbes looks like the guy i thought gold golden golden came in to be the number one guy but yes well 87 ain't giving up that spot But if you look at Ocho, they really only threw the ball to go.

Only threw the ball to Dobbs up around the goal line.

He had three touchdowns and then he caught that one where Bland kind of like he reached with the wrong hand.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

But other than that, they really didn't give him a whole lot of balls in the field to play.

Most of it, like, he had, what, three or four catches right there around right around the goal line, and he made the most of those.

And that's what you want.

Like, hey, all things being equal, hey, give me the tubs.

But I think if they can get Golden involved, I think he's going to make this offense even more dynamic, OJo, because he got speed to burn.

I was surprised they didn't call that PI

because nine times out of 10, Ocho, on Bland on that, on that rail, that shot up the rail, they call that.

On the left side, towards the end of the game?

Yes.

They call that.

I would hate for the refs to be the reason on

changing the outcome of the game.

Let the players play.

That was like a, eh.

It was, you know.

I guarantee you, watch, they're going to come out and say that should have been a flag.

They're going to come.

You think so?

But that don't do me no good.

Right, right, right.

And especially if you're not.

I would prefer you not even tell me because now I'm going to be mad if if

if you if you lost a game if you lost the game

then it's okay but the fact that the game ended in the tie yes i'm glad they did they didn't call it because i hate when the rest get in the way of changing the outcome of a game instead of just letting the players play yeah but i thought jordan love i mean he made a couple of plays like okay but other than that i can't be mad at him i really can't because i mean he's only in his fifth year and he's still there's some things that uh he can clean up but on that fourth down when he threw that ball to golden yeah he had some mustard on that oh yeah he did yeah he had some steam on it yeah he did um

but i thought he played really really well i thought jacobs ran the ball hard he started making people miss on a couple of those runs i was like damn somebody gonna need some ankle some ankle transplants because he tearing people's ankles up left and right yeah he was um

Javante Williams, now you see him another year removed from that ACL surgery.

He's starting to look like that Carolina Javante Williams, dragging people, making people miss.

Hey, he was toting that rock, boy.

I mean, I don't see any signs of him having an ACL injury based on his performance and the way he ran the ball tonight.

Yes.

Being able to cut and jump stop and all that and coming to balance and exploding.

I'm like, well, God damn, boy.

I think, Ocho, had the game not gotten so, you know, they could have ran him more.

But they fell behind.

And so, you know, we want to get people back.

Even when they catch up.

Yeah.

But I think, you know what?

I think blocking that PAT, Ocho, gave them a life because they were a different team after they blocked that PAT than before because Green Bay was kind of having their way with them.

And then they blocked that PAT and got a Jolt of life.

And the next thing you know, they're right back in the ball game.

Give the Cowboys a lot of credit.

Like I said, I don't think they, I don't think, you know, look.

This is only four games into the season, but the likelihood of you getting to the destination that you want to end up at and you start one and three isn't very good.

It's not likely.

One, two, and one, it still gives you a chance because you still get the Eagles.

You still got two games against the Giants.

You got two games against the Commanders.

And you have another game against the Eagles.

And you have your out of conference, your out-of-conference, your out-of-division games.

So we'll see how that shapes out.

Offensively, I think they're good.

My concerns is defense, OJo.

I just don't know

if

giving up 40 points, OJo,

at home?

You giving up 40 points at home.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Hey, shit.

They gave up 40 also.

Gabby gave up 40 that first round of playoffs.

Remember a few years ago now?

Oh, yeah, when they gave up 40 FA, they gave up 48, didn't he?

But listen to the thing.

This is the good side of things.

Not only are you missing CeeDee Lamb and everyone else stepping up and trying to make up for the production that CeeDe Lamb would have had, but they also scored.

Okay, you gave up 40, but you're scoring 40.

So offensively, you're playing extremely well.

And the defensive side of the ball just has to find a way to catch up.

Find a way to catch up.

Find a way to get one or two stops in your quarters.

That would have made a difference in the game.

Ocho, but can't, I mean, there haven't been very many defenses that you can just say, hey, go hunt with four, and they go attack the quarterback.

Right.

It's been very few.

Now,

it's been done.

Yeah.

But it's been very few times.

The Eagles last year could get home with four, and they would play coverage.

Fangio does not like to sacrifice that back in.

And he had those big hogs and they could, they could collapse the pocket inside with Davis and Carter.

And then those edge guys would scream it off the edge and they would rotate them and they had eight, they could go eight deep and they just go, just go, go, go, go.

But I don't see that with the Cowboys.

I'm not seeing that.

Sam Williams came back.

He looked good.

They had a few guys that

flashed.

Yeah.

But I think in order to, for the Cowboys to play this style of defense,

boy, you're asking an awful lot.

Man, you're asking asking an awful lot for your secondary man because, like you said, they're expanding to an area.

Well, I'm just gonna go sit down in there where you vacated every time, and that for that folk got to get it.

But this is this is the thing you got to understand.

You have to have the personnel to be able to do it.

He's not blissing for a reason, yeah, because he doesn't want, he doesn't want to expose the back end.

Yeah, hell, you're only blissing four, and the back end still exposed.

Thank you, you only bring it for, I mean, excuse me, yeah.

Um, it's uh, but that's his style of play.

If you look at him when he was a

he was the head coach of when he was in Indy.

Yeah.

What did he do?

That's his style of play.

Yeah.

You go watch him when he was in Chicago.

He's the head coach.

Look at his style of play.

Now you look at him.

This is who he is.

Yeah, same way.

Now, on the flip side, you go look at Kansas City.

Anytime Kansas City, when he gets threatened, what are he going to do?

He'll get you.

He'll eat you up.

I'm coming to get you.

You come, you get down to his area i'm coming to get you get you yeah

that's not hey but but i and honest and honestly this is what makes spaghs defense so good yeah

he has the personnel to be able to do and execute exactly what he needs you to do the game they had we'll get to that now i don't want to go too much into it but uh

a 40-point tie

I mean,

I mean,

I'm trying to think, have I ever tied this game?

I've never tied a game.

So I don't know how I would feel.

I just know I,

look, it's kind of like playing cards.

You know what I'm saying, Ocho?

It's like and you get a push.

I didn't sit down at the blackjack table to push.

I sat down to win.

Yeah.

So

I guess it's like pushing.

You know what I'm saying?

I didn't lose no money, but I didn't win money.

I didn't sit down there to say, okay, yeah, push.

Push.

No, bro, I'm trying to win something.

But I guess in this situation, I don't know how to feel.

I've never been in this situation before.

Have you ever had a tie game in your career?

Absolutely not.

Absolutely not.

But listen, if I played for the Cowboys, if I played for the Packers, I would feel good.

Yeah, I'd feel good.

I didn't lose.

I'd be upset.

We didn't win the game, but we have some great things we have to build off of.

Defensively, we need to work.

Offensively,

they could take the day off.

Offense, y'all could take Monday and Tuesday off.

Defense, we'll see y'all here in the film room Monday, Monday night.

Matter of fact, even on Tuesday, on your off-day Tuesday, bring your ass in here again.

Yeah.

They, um,

whoo,

but uh, that game did some numbers.

Oh, yeah.

I could imagine.

This is probably going to be the highest-rated Sunday night game they've had in quite some time.

Maybe about 28, 29 million.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's the Cowboys.

It's a close game.

Yeah.

It was back and forth in the fourth quarter.

It goes into overtime.

So, yeah,

it peaked.

I agree with you, Ocho.

I'm saying

28.

Yeah.

Probably.

I like it.

But the Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys, they needed, what, 70 minutes and they still couldn't determine a winner.

They have a tie.

40-40.

Jordan Love was 31 of 43, 337, and three touchdowns, no interceptions.

Dak Prince got 31 of 40, 319, three touchdowns, no interceptions.

I mean, you look at it,

500 yards for the...

about almost 500 yards of offense for the Packers.

Yeah.

A little little over 400 um for the cowboys but they played to a 40 40 tie and

onward and upward

oh cho yo

the game you just alluded to lamar jackson leads the ravens yeah wait wait wait wait wait wait before you even start

before you even start

now what i'm gonna need you to do

I don't want to hear you say foot or ball.

You've been talking about the Ravens is your team.

And I told you you was only there for two weeks, but you eluded and wanted to be adamant about the Ravens being your team.

I need you to keep that same energy that you had for Joe Burrow when things aren't going well with Joe, especially last year.

Keep that same energy for eight,

for that popping old legend

with today's performance.

Now, I'm going to let you go.

And at any point, I feel you shucking and driving, I'm going to interrupt, but go ahead.

go ahead keep that

your day coming tomorrow around this time i just want you to know your day coming

hey hey listen

you're gonna be real sad if you go if you go oh for two

you got one team lost today

yeah and your other team lose

it won't be two it won't be two all right lamar jackson leaves the ravens uh in a 37-20 loss to the chiefs with hamstring issues baltimore is now one and three for the first time since 2015 and two games behind the Steelers in the AFC North.

Ocho, how much trouble are the Ravens and Lamar Jackson in as we currently speak?

Boyd and boys in hell of trouble.

You hear me?

They're in hell of trouble.

They're in a lot of trouble.

For one, I'm not even going to talk about the injuries first.

I just want to talk about the defense.

They can't stop nobody.

They can't stop the run.

They can't stop the pass.

They can't stop Nathaniel.

Nothing.

Outside of that, the good thing thing for the Baltimore Ravens, you're not facing the Kansas City Chiefs every week.

So offensively, you're probably going to be very good against everybody else.

What Spaggs dialed up today,

pressure, pressure, pressure.

We're not going to let him.

We're not going to allow Lamar to sit back there and have his way.

Not only that, when he does drop back, when he is in the shotgun, we're going to have a spy.

Matter of fact, we're going to blitz and have a spy.

because I trust my back end to be able to handle their business and doing what they need to do.

And

it worked numbers.

It was phenomenal.

The game plan that Spaggs came in with defensively worked phenomenal.

I'm trying to figure out what Baltimore.

Look, Spaggs has a history.

If he feels threatened, he's going to blitz you.

Yeah.

You get down to his territory, he's going to blitz you.

Uh-huh.

You know this.

It seemed like the Ravens, everybody knows this except the Ravens.

Now, they really

had no answers going on.

Oh, Joe.

It hadn't been a while.

They did not.

They did not.

That offensive line, Ronnie Staley went out, and so now you got to back up in at the most important position at the left tackle.

Your right guard isn't playing up the snuff.

And so now you're weakened in two areas.

Yeah.

You really couldn't get into your run game.

Look, they had 166 yards with 17 carries, but 71 of that came when the game was out of reach.

Justice Hill cracked off one.

But you're able to neutralize

Derrick Henry.

He only had eight carries for 42 yards.

He's not that kind of back that can give you that kind of, now, he's more like as he gets going.

Now, he can pop off one.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

But he can pop up one.

But this is what you see from the Chief defense.

Goddamn, Super Bowl.

We think it's Saquon going to have a day.

What Spag said?

Oh, no, no, no, no.

If anybody's going to beat us, it ain't going to be 26.

You got to beat him forward the ball.

Well, hell, if you're coming into a game

like today, what's the first thing you say?

Well, we're taking two people out.

We're taking two, we knock two birds with one stone.

We're going to spy Lamar Jackson on pass downs and blitz at the same time.

And anything with Derrick Henry, uh-uh.

We got to see you.

We got to have that.

You won't be breaking off nothing.

Hey, man and boy, we're laying that wood out there today, boy.

If you go back and look at how teams have beaten the Chiefs in the postseason,

throw the ball.

First time they lost with Patrick Mahomes as their quarterback, what did Tom Brady do?

Go back and look at Tom Brady numbers.

Yeah.

You go back and look at Joe Burrow, they threw the ball.

Yeah.

You go back and look, you look at Tampa in the Super Bowl.

They threw the ball.

You've got to be able to throw the ball because Spags got, you got to take something away.

What he wants to take away, he wants to make you one-dimensional.

So that way he can just focus on stopping the pass.

Right.

Let you run it.

Now he can't focus on what he needs to focus on.

Your quarterback has to be up to par and he has to beat you throwing the football.

And you can't turn it over.

Can't turn it over.

You got to protect the ball against Spags if you want to beat it.

Yeah.

Lamar was 14 to 21.

47, one touchdown, one interception.

He fumbled one,

got a look, got hit from the back.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

I need the same energy you have for Joe Burrow.

Joe Burrow ain't played.

I'm not.

No, no, no.

When Joe, when we lose, you have all this energy and Joe should have did this and Joe can't turn the ball over and Joe can't do that.

I need you to have the same energy you have for Joe for Lamar.

Okay.

Okay.

Hey, did hey, Lamar, that's my dog, right?

Did he take himself out the game today or was he hurt?

He was hamstring.

If it was reported that he has a hamstring injury.

Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

Well,

I need you to be very critical of your team.

That's your team, right?

That's one of my teams, yes.

I'm trying to make sure.

The energy is not adding up based on the way you were talking yesterday.

Okay?

Hold on.

Did you ex hold on?

Did you expect the Ravens to beat Kansas City or Kansas City?

Oh, so, oh, is that what we're doing?

Is that what we're doing?

I'm just asking.

So we're saying that the Ravens they can't win on the road?

Is that what you're telling me?

Yeah, they can.

Are you making excuses?

No.

Hold on.

The Chiefs are one and three, huh?

The Chiefs are one and three.

And the Ravens, and the Ravens are one and six now against the Chiefs.

Hold on, hold on.

Let me finish.

Let me finish.

Let me cook.

Go ahead, finish.

Let me cook.

Lamar Jackson is one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, and he's still.

Correct.

Yes.

Yes.

I expect Lamar Jackson and that defense that once was feared at one point to go in there and be able to beat the goddamn Chiefs.

Yes, I do.

They got Lamar Jackson and they got Derrick Henry.

I expect it.

Think about it.

So last year,

they had Lamar Jackson and when he was the MVP and the defense was better than that.

Yeah.

And the Baltimore and Kansas City came into their building in the AFC championship game, what happened?

Because what we have seen.

is that what happened today, Ocho,

Lamar turned the ball over twice.

Yeah, okay.

You're not, you're not gonna be the chief.

See, you heard what you just said.

I need you.

That's, I need you to say that.

I need you to say it.

I need you to say it.

We're both breaking out of games.

You can say it.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, people want me to let you talk, so I was trying to let you talk.

Hold on, I need you to do eight like you do Joe.

You'd be real hyped, you'd be real enthusiastic, you'd be real passionate about the reason we lost is because Joe turned the ball over.

He needs to do more.

No, well, you lost for two, the same reason.

The same reason the Bengal is the same reason the Ravens lose is because Lamar turned the ball over and the defense sucked.

Okay, okay.

Okay, I just wanted to hear it out your mouth.

That's but you, but you know, I'm not breaking news.

Excuse me, let me interrupt the normally scheduled programming to break this news.

And you want me to give you an Amber alert?

The Baltimore Ravens defense isn't very good.

Yeah.

We haven't seen Patrick Mahomes look like this in a very long time.

All season.

I don't know if we've seen him look like 25 or 37, 274 touchdowns.

When was the last time we saw him throw for four touchdowns?

We haven't seen this, this

Patrick Mahomes in an extremely long time.

And he looked very, very comfortable.

They ran the ball.

They did worthy.

Pacheco ran hard.

Kareem Hunt came in.

He got some big time.

Hold on.

Talk about Taekwondo now.

Hey,

let me tell y'all something.

I don't know if y'all noticed this, but if you want to have a good game, y'all come on and talk to uncle

night cap

everybody that comes on the show for some reason they go crazy melissa jefferson they go crazy taquan

rashan gary going crazy henley

hey i'm just saying tell you hey a matter of fact all the ravens fans out there man hey uh make sure y'all check on butter make sure butter scrape

Hey,

I mean, think, oh,

I mean, the Chiefs hadn't scored 35.

When was the last time the Chiefs scored 35 points?

You probably got to go all the way back, though,

23.

I don't think they've scored 30.

Speaking of 30 and 35 points, Unk, last year when the Chiefs were playing games, the games they're losing this year, those are the games that they won.

They lose in the closed games.

They lose in all the closed games.

This is the first time the Chiefs have looked like the Chiefs of old in a very long time.

Very long time, yes.

Very long time.

Because they were all in one-score game.

Remember, Ocho, one-score game.

A field goal.

They win by one.

They win by two.

They win by three.

They win by four.

They were all these one-score games.

This is the first time that they won by, I mean, a comfortable margin.

Yeah.

So the last time they scored more than 30 was against the Raiders in November of 23.

So almost two years.

Damn.

That's what the Ravens defense has allowed Kansas City to do.

Right.

So in almost two years since they scored more than 30, they just go in there there and made it look easy.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

Well, hey, this is the funny thing, huh?

I know I'm being funny about the Ravens.

You know, I love my Bengals, but the Ravens are going to be okay.

As bad as their defense is, their identity is not their defense.

Their identity is their offense.

As long as you have number eight.

It's no different than when we talk about the Buffalo Bills.

It's no different than we talk about the Bengal.

Obviously, Joe Burrow is out.

But as long as you have eight, you're going to always be in contention.

I don't care if you're one and three.

I don't care if you're one in four.

Their team is so good offensively and can score 30, can score 40, can put up 28 a game.

It's just you're playing.

You're not playing against the Kansas City Chiefs every day.

You're not playing against Spags or a defense like that every single day.

Other teams you're going to play aren't going to have the personnel to say, we're going to blitz and have a goddamn spot.

That's not the makeup of other teams.

So that's how I know the Ravens are going to be okay.

But right now, they're down in the dumps.

And matter of fact,

they fan so fickle, huh?

The fan throwing jerseys all in the trash.

They're making fun of Lamar.

It's about, you know, Lamar is like Jam.

I'm like, come on, man.

Oh, Joe.

This is what we do.

The very thing that we criticize Josh Allen for,

playing great, but he had turnovers and he couldn't overcome them.

His defense couldn't, and we blamed everybody.

At what point in time do we say, Lamar, you got to stop turning the ball over?

We did this for Josh Allen for years because Josh Allen would play great, he would throw an interception in the end zone.

Yeah, he would fumble the ball trying to do too much.

Go back and look at Lamar in the games that he's lost,

especially big, big games.

Look at his turnovers.

Yeah, look at Kansas City in the championship.

Look at Buffalo

today.

One pick, one fumble.

When your defense is as inept as it is, the last thing you want to do is put them back on the field.

I want you, oh, Joe, I want them to play as little as possible.

Yeah.

That's the thing with the Cowboys are up against.

As good as the Cowboys' offense is, unfortunately, you got to play.

You got to put your defense back on the field.

And I want them to play as little as possible.

So guess what happens?

I turn the ball over.

I break.

Joe Burrow knows about this.

I turn the ball over.

I got to put the team, the unit that I least want to be on the field back on the field.

Yeah.

Now, I don't know what's going to happen.

Look, I don't advocate anything, but I just think the thing is, is that I don't know what Zach Orr is calling.

I don't know what's going on.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

This is what we will not do.

What?

We will not blame

the defensive coordinator for the woes and the struggles of the defense because them boys they got back there, Wiggins, Marlon Humphrey, Kyle Hamilton, who they just paid $237 trillion.

No, y'all got to get it done.

A woozy,

whatever the coach called

a woozy, a woozy, whatever, whatever the coach called Woozy.

You got that woozier?

Hold on, that's the woozier from the Cowboys.

He played with Cincinnati.

What did he at Cincinnati?

That's all about that cut.

They call him first down.

Because you throw the ball on him, it's a first down.

That's what they call it.

Hey.

He's on the Ravens now, but he was with Cincinnati, wasn't he?

With the Cowboys, also?

Yeah, she's over there.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, first down.

Yeah, I know.

You're like, yeah, I know first down.

That's his nickname.

You call him first down?

Throw it on him.

First down.

Oh, Joe.

The thing is, is that they can't, their two best pass rushers are out.

So with that being said now wiggins and humphrey and hamilton you need i don't care how great your secondary is without pressure their secondary will become average oh yeah absolutely with with great pressure an average secondary can look great great yeah

man

yeah ocho the problem in that we saw this with joe burrow we and we saw this with josh allen and and and and and i was the i was the main one i'll be the first to say i said yeah, the defense isn't good.

But what about those turnovers?

So what role did throwing an interception in the end zone and you don't get a chance on first down or you throw an interception on second down and you don't get a crack at third down or you don't get a crack to kick a field goal?

What role did that play?

Okay, you turned the ball over in negative territory.

What role did that play in you losing the game?

It's easy to say, well, they gave up 40 points.

Did any of those turnovers help them them get to that 40 point total absolutely absolutely so you know what that tells you your ravens is not as not as good as you thought they were because you was talking cash you know what before the season started about the the afc north come through the ravens i told i told you it damn sure ain't going through cincinnati the afc north is going through cincinnati and matter of fact And just to put a stamp on it, so we can dot our I's and cross our T's, when we beat your team tomorrow night, I want you to come on here.

I want you to apologize to me, and I want you to apologize to everybody in the chat.

And I want you to say, Ocho was always right

because

I told you what was going to happen.

Don't get that Raven's helmet, please.

Don't do that.

Oh,

oh, oh, now today.

Oh, oh, tonight is Denver, huh?

Oh, tonight is Denver.

Bronco country, stand up.

Last night it was raving this.

It was raving that.

It was Lamar Jackson.

It was Derrick Henry.

What happened, huh?

What happened?

They lost, Ocho.

Okay, okay.

Well, I need, I need to.

And you say they're not in trouble.

What is Cooper Rush going to do?

If Lamar Jackson missed any time, what is Cooper Rush going to do?

Hey,

y'all might, y'all might,

the season probably over for y'all, man.

That is what you just said.

You just said they're going to be okay.

I said, as long as Lamar Jackson is playing, you're going to be okay.

There are a few teams in the NFL that can dig themselves out of a hole.

A one and three hole, a one and four hole, no, one and three now.

The Baltimore Ravens could do that offensively.

But you do realize, so they're one in three.

Yeah.

In order to go to get the 500, you got to win two games in a row.

So you win two games in a row, that's five.

So what happens if you go one and one?

What happens if you go 0-2?

Cooper Rush, you're not winning.

Your defense isn't playing up to great, up the standards with Lamar at quarterback.

What the hell do you think they're going to do?

Lamar, uh, Cooper Rush is not going to get you anything with those legs.

Hey, I, I, uh, I a wise man once told me, he told me that Cooper Rush was a very good quarterback.

I don't know who told you that his name, Jerry,

man, please.

I listen,

I'm not telling you what I know, I'm telling you what I know.

Jerry also said that

Michael, Micah ain't winning no Super Bowls.

We didn't win no Super Bowl with Micah.

Jerry, y'all ain't won a Super Bowl in Micah's lifetime.

So what the hell you talking about?

You ain't win no Super Bowl with him.

You haven't won a Super Bowl in this man's lifetime.

Oh, man.

Nobody thought, the only person that thought Cooper Rush was good was Jerry.

Nobody thought it was good because when he became a free agent, nobody put a bid out there for him.

Right.

Oh, I remember Troy.

Troy said, Oh, he's gonna be a hot commodity on the free agent market.

No, he's not.

Maybe, maybe that was, you know, because a lot of times they'll do that now.

These guys that call these game, they'll put that bug out there and have, well, you know, he did play the game and he studies the game and he knows.

No, no, if you watch, watch the games closely.

Yeah, just pay attention.

Watch them.

It was Zeke running.

They had to play outstanding outstanding defense and zeke had to run the ball and they gave him easy stuffs

but now

if lamar jackson can't go they're going to be dependent yeah on the defense or coach and

i don't understand why you get a guy that's so vastly different than lamar

i understand there is no lamar jackson but ocho gets something similar

There is nothing similar, boy.

We talk about number eight.

We talk about Pompado's finest.

There's nothing like that.

So that offense has to change drastically.

The offense has to change drastically because Cooper Rush, what Cooper Russ can do, it's nothing compared to Lamar Jackson.

So the playbook is going to shrink like this.

So you shrink the...

So let me ask you a question.

So you shrink the playbook and then they look for

the offense to be more explosive while trying to

minimize your defense exposure.

How does that work?

Hey, listen, I don't know.

Harbor won't have to figure that one out.

But you better hope whatever's wrong with Lamar's hamstring, it's not significant.

And it's day to day.

Let's hope.

I'm hoping because I want to see Lamar out there on the field.

I'm a Ravens fan.

I enjoy the game of football and I enjoy watching one of the families.

You're a Lamar fan.

You ain't no Ravens fan.

Oh, my bad.

That's what I meant to say.

But I love the Ravens fans, though.

They've always been good to me, and I've been good to them.

So technically, I'm a Ravens fan because I love their fans.

But I'm a a Lamar fan, and I really want him to play.

I don't want him to miss no time.

I don't want him to miss no time at all because he's exciting to watch.

The Ravens' defense is allowing an NFL worst 33.3 points per game.

Already entered Sunday's game without four starters.

The Ravens are now 7-11, including the playoffs, when Lamar turns the ball over multiple times.

After no turnovers in his first three games, Lamar threw an interception and then fumbled when he ran into the back of Tyler Lindenbaum.

Ravens safety, Kyle Hamilton on the one and three start.

I just want to apologize to the fan.

The product that we're putting on the field right now is not up to par to what the Ravens have been in the past and in the recent past.

We're trying our best to correct it, but obviously something's wrong.

Hey, man, man, listen.

The Ravens defense, the Ravens offense, the coaching staff, they need to apologize to the fans and they need to apologize to the number one fan, butter.

But I know you're probably watching, boy.

I apologize.

I'm sorry.

Y'all just ain't it this year.

The AFC North will be run through Cincinnati through the 513.

And we ain't even got Joe Burrow, but we're going to whoop y'all and we're going with the Broncos tomorrow night.

I can tell you that.

We're going to sack him probably about five times.

Sack who?

Jake Brownie.

Sack him with who?

With what?

Boy, no.

Not with our offensive line.

You crazy.

What, man, please.

Boy, it's Monday night.

It's Monday night.

Jake Browning ain't never lost a game on Monday night.

Never played one either.

He did when Joe Burrow was out.

That was Thursday.

Well, same thing.

Monday, Thursday, it's all the same because we the only ones on TV.

After getting Xavier Worthy back on the field, Chiefs had their biggest scoring day in more than two years.

OJo, is the offense finally on track?

It's just one game.

It's just one game, but they look good.

Xavier Worthy, Juju Smith, Pacheco, toting that thing in the date.

They didn't have a running game the past four weeks, three weeks, excuse me.

But today, they had a running game for some reason.

That addition to Tycho Thornton showing his value.

Just getting there, making plays.

Every time he throws a ball, there's a touchdown.

Every time he touched the ball, it's a touchdown.

So they look good.

Now the offense is catching up to where the defense is.

Now the Chiefs are starting to look like the Chiefs of old.

But can they string it together?

Can they do it back-to-back weeks?

Who they got next week?

Man, stop playing.

He looked good.

I mean, they got Speed Galore.

Xavier Word that can run.

Tyquan Thornton can fly.

Hollywood Brown can fly.

The Ravens play the Texans.

Who did the Chiefs play?

And they still

the Jags in Jacksonville or in Kansas City?

Okay, that'll be a very good game.

Where they playing at?

In Jacksonville.

Sunday, right?

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

And

they get Rashid Rice back after what, six games or seven games?

Six.

Hey, once they get him back, especially

if they start hitting a stride after this game and continue that same momentum and then rashi rice come back man listen man yeah boy

but they look good this is the first this is the best the chiefs offensive look in a very very long time yeah

this is patrick mahomes look comfortable he's still i mean he hit one deep ball to worthy yeah But that deep ball ain't what it's like

when he was hitting that deep ball, when he had Tyreek,

he get back on that level with these guys because he got speed.

Hey, pick a side.

Yeah.

Pick one.

Let it real.

Because Worthy can fly.

Thornton can fly.

Rasheed Rice going to he and Trab is going to be working in the middle.

Hollywood.

That's going to be crazy.

Oh, the Jacks play Cancito Monday night.

Wow.

Next week.

Next week, they play Monday night, Ocho.

In Jacksonville?

Yep.

I'm going to go to that game.

I'm going to do the show from Jacksonville.

I'm going to go to that game.

Damn, man.

Hey, listen, the Chiefs, hey, quiet, quietly.

They got a little four by one team.

I don't know who, I don't know who gonna run that

fourth leg, but the first three legs fast as hell.

Uh, Rasheed Rice, I look at Rasheed Rice one.

But here he is.

You got Thornton, you got, you got three guys that run four.

Hollywood ran four, two.

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

That boy, the boys, fast.

Thornton ran 4-2.

Yeah, Xavier ran 4-2-1.

Pick anybody.

Hell, put Mahomes.

Let Mahomes run second leg.

They got speed to bird, don't you?

They do.

I think Rasheed Rice ran 4-4, so he good.

All I know, ain't a team charting out

three players that can outrun those guys.

Nah.

I don't give a damn what you got on your team.

Nah.

You ain't charting out three guys that can outrun Thornton, Hollywood, and Xavier Worthy.

That ain't happening.

Yeah.

And as fast as they are,

they just have to make sure it shows up not only on film, but in the games.

Because they play.

They have to, everything should be, it should look explosive.

Like when Tyree catches the ball,

he just looked so much faster than everybody else.

It's just different.

I don't know how to explain it.

But see, he compact.

See, he's short.

Man, Thornton's tall.

Thornton's like 6'2 ⁇ .

Yep.

The Giants earned their first win of the season beating the Chargers 21-18.

Rookie quarterback Jackson Dart in his first career start completed 13 of 20 passes, 111 yards, a touchdown, no interception.

But the Giants lost Malik neighbors in the second quarter to what is believed to be an ACL injury.

Excuse me.

Odell Beckham tweeted after the neighbors' injury.

Dear NFL, I mean this with the utmost love and respect.

We, the NFL, take all precautions in the world with everything else when it comes to players' health and safety.

Please, please, please get rid of this turf.

Thank you in advance.

Love, respect, and you know, I love the Giants, but death life has taken too many talented players away from the game.

I know it's not all turf's fault, but maybe it's where we've got to go.

We've gotten all research done because Turf State is the highest quality it's possible.

At least we can start that discussion.

Oh, Joe, we're looking at from 20 to 2025, there have been at least 16 documented ACL and Achilles injuries at MetLife Stadium.

Aaron Rodgers, Achilles, Jalen Phillips, Achilles, Nick Bosa, ACL, Malik Neighbors, suspected ACL.

What you think, don't you?

Nothing.

Nothing at all.

I played on that same turf.

I played in that same turf out there in goddamn Cincinnati.

I played in the same turf for 11 goddamn years.

Ain't got nothing to do with no goddamn turf.

If it was grass, if something's going to pull, if something's going to pop, it's going to pop.

regardless of what the surface is that's below you.

It doesn't matter.

It had nothing to do.

I mean, we got to get that out of our mind.

We got to get that out of the mind.

Oh, we're suffering these injuries because of the surface we're playing on.

No, that's coming from within.

That's within.

That's the ground.

The ground has nothing to do with that at all.

I'm just being honest.

It doesn't.

It had no correlation at all.

People get ACLs and Achilles on regular grass.

It's the same thing.

But are they happening with the same frequency?

Oh, come on, man.

So let me ask you a question.

Let me ask you a question.

It has no bearing.

So why have there been so many ACL and Achilles injuries in that stadium specifically?

I mean, let's say that stadium specifically, right?

Why have there been so many ACL and Achilles injuries in general?

Why is it risen, not just in MetLife, just in general?

Maybe because there's a lot more of these stadiums that have this synthetic turf no that has nothing to do with it because sometimes people aren't even being touched some of these are non-contact injuries yeah

no it had nothing to do with it well that's what the studies so but see you don't believe in studies and science anyway and that's the problem we keep worrying about science

It's science.

That's why everybody getting hurt.

That's why.

That's the problem.

We listen to these people that never played the fucking game.

Oh, my bad.

My bad.

I'm sorry.

We're listening to these people that are experts on what we're supposed to consume and put in our bodies that have never played any sport at the highest level and know what it takes to be able to play a four-quarter game in a barbaric sport where we're running to each other 30 miles an hour.

But yeah,

eat this green stuff.

It's healthy for you.

It's going to help you.

No, for some reason, everybody's continuing to get hurt.

Soft tissue injury this, Achilles, Achilles, quads, hamstrings.

Everything blowing out.

Something has to give.

And we blame it on the injuries.

I mean, we blame it on turf.

No goddamn turf.

Unk.

When y'all played, y'all played on concrete.

Yeah.

Y'all played on concrete with carpet laid over top of it.

Yeah.

With no problems.

That it ended Wendell Carter's career.

He tore both patella tendons and bet.

Come on, man.

Look, i i just think the thing is is that if you know if you

if you know more you should do more and i think there's a reason why so in other words so let me ask you a question talk to me so why did they kick the kickoff out if it doesn't hurt guys gonna get hurt anyway so why so why not continue to run down there and let guys run into each other oh the nfl covering their ass okay well cover wait don't you want to cover your ass with these injuries hold on hold on hold on listen to me real quick We're trying to prevent the collisions from so far apart.

So we're going to shrink it down, right because we lost a lawsuit to what what three generations ago

yeah it was uh in 2000 early 2000s yeah three yeah three generations or three eras three eras ago we lost a billion dollar lawsuit three you know what i'm trying to say we don't want to have that have that happen again so what are we going to do we're going to take precautions anyone that that gets hurt, we're going to continue to throw flags.

We're going to continue to find you.

So you don't come back 10 years later from now trying to sue us saying, well, my head or this is messed up because of these circumstances that we had back then.

That's what the NFL is doing.

I think the thing is,

is that the NFL, the product, suffers when your best players aren't on the field.

There's a reason why you can't hit the quarterback below the knee.

Right.

Trent Green suffered the exact same injury on that very similar play,

and they didn't change the rule.

It wasn't until Tom Brady,

yes,

and they call it the Brady rule.

Yeah,

there have been a lot of quarterbacks that got hit in the knee and got hurt, yeah.

But it was,

I just think the thing, look,

I think if you know more, you should do more.

Um,

you don't, you don't, you don't believe in science, you don't go to the doctor, so oh, yeah, I mean, I go to the doctor, why because I have he never played no sport.

How would he know what's what what how he know how to treat your body because i can't check myself you know what i'm saying

i gotta make sure i'm healthy but why

you don't listen to no nutritionist i don't why would you listen to a doctor hold on hold on hold on listen listen listen to me listen to me i don't listen to nobody

that does studies and tells me what i need to put in my body to play the game of football at the highest level.

Why would you

do that?

I'm not listening to that.

They tell you what you should put in your body to heal your body.

So why would you do that?

Hold on, hold on.

I need better context.

I need better context.

Why would you listen to anybody to say you need to put this medicine in your body so you can feel better, so you won't be sick, so you won't have a sore throat?

Why would you listen to anything?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

My sore throat is because of the AC.

And I don't know.

I don't AC.

I'm just asking you a simple question.

You need to answer.

Let me answer.

Okay.

I don't take medicine for one.

Let's start there.

Okay.

That's all I want to say.

So you said, you're the one that said you go to the doctor to take medicine.

No, I didn't say that.

I said a checkup.

We got to go to the next step.

Why are you going to get checkup?

Because we old.

You're not going to listen to what he says anyway.

So why do you care?

No, because he has to let me know if everything is okay with me.

We got to get a care.

Oh, Joe.

Why do you care?

You're not going to listen to him.

Unc, we got to get a checkup.

Every man.

Why do you have to get a checkup when you're not going to listen to what he says?

Because we're in our 50s.

Uncle We have to what are you talking about we don't have to yeah we do did your mom get checkup did your grandma get checkup no we didn't the old people didn't get no checkup i'm asking you if you're not going to listen to what the doctor says why are you going to get checked up to make sure why do you even have why do you even have medical

to make sure everything is okay with me why

so i can know

So you just want to know.

You're not going to do anything about it.

So why do you want to know?

Because I'm supposed to go get a checkup every six months.

You don't do that?

Why do you need a checkup when you're not going to listen to what the doctor says to help you feel better, make you feel better, or be healthier?

Why are you going?

Well, for one, this is the good thing, right?

So every time I go do my checkup, there's nothing wrong with me.

So really, there's nothing for the doctor has told me I need to do because I always feel good.

Okay.

So I'm good.

But you're going for some reason.

Because I have to do my checkup every six months.

You don't have to.

There is no law that says you have to go get a checkup.

Where is the law?

What do you mean?

They said it in school.

Once you hit 40, you got to get your checkup every single day.

They said a lot of things in school.

They said study and do your homework.

You ain't listening to that.

No, because I wanted to play football.

I ain't kidding.

I wasn't no scholar.

Yeah.

But then you found out, you know what?

I got to study and do my homework to play football.

I did, I did, I did.

And AI.

Let's get on.

Let's get bigger.

Jackson Dart is the first quarterback since Patrick Mahomes to lead their team to an 80-plus yard drive on the first drive of their first career start.

Ocho, the moment didn't look too big for him.

No, absolutely not.

Look, it's the first game.

Listen, look, you and I are not going to start.

Hey, we're not going to get a parade going.

Right.

But what we will do is that we saw flashes and we saw glimpses of him in preseason.

He looked good, yeah.

That like, oh Joe, he looked good.

And I was like, oh, Joe, over under, eight weeks of

rust.

Right.

I said, I'm going to take the under, and I'm not so sure it's going to be four, it's going to be much longer than four or five weeks.

Right.

Also,

you and I was talking, I said,

if it's me, I'm going to start him at home against the Chargers.

I'm not going to start him on the road in the Saints in that building, that noise.

I'm going to start him in my building because I know at least for the first game, the crowd is going to be on his side and they won't boo him.

Yeah.

But

he looked good.

Good.

Now, it hurts that he's not going to have his most talented player on the offensive side of football joining him.

But he looked good.

Very good.

Very good.

What did you like about what you saw from him?

Listen, not only did they run the offense, right?

Even with Malik Nebras going out, he still looked good.

Obviously, players of call offensively, seeing him use his legs on some of those third downs and get those first downs and being able to play off script outside of the scheme and the players at the call is what I was most excited about.

I think about the difference between him and Russell Wilson.

Obviously, Russell being in there, being able to stand in the pocket, and he doesn't have that ability to be a dual threat as he once was when he was in Seattle.

So having that addition of Jackson Dart being able to come in, drop back, being in the shotgun, being able to go through his reads and not see anything there and be able to pull that thing down and take off.

And not only he takes on, hey, boy, he can run, huh?

Yeah, he can run.

He got legs.

I ain't no fast like that.

I'm not saying Lamar Jackson or nothing like that, but young bull got wheels on him.

Yeah, he can run.

He looked and uh, I like Scatterboo running the football.

Scatterboo reminds me of Peyton Hillis, he does, he does, he absolutely does.

Or all-star, Mike All-Star.

Remember, all-star from Campbell?

All-star nice, but but Peyton Hillis and Scatterboo got a little bit more wiggle to him, though.

Yeah, they got a little more wiggle to him, yeah.

Uh, let's see here,

Giants.

I mean, oh man, I thought big guy, I thought uh, uh, uh, Dex, I thought sexy was going to be low.

You know he gonna go low.

Man, get that.

Hey, he gotta run high in the balls and get that arm down and get him off.

We gotta get Dex to work on that stiff arm.

If he had got in the end zone, you know, that's a big man dream, Uncle.

A pick?

A pick?

Hey.

Boy, I think the stadium would have erupted if he would have, if he would have

got past that and hurled it over that

tackle.

But that would have been nice, boy.

They did a great job of getting after Herbert.

Yes.

Thibodeau,

Burns, Abdul Carter, Sexy Dexie, those guys did a great job of putting pressure on him.

He never really felt comfortable.

Give them credit.

Give them credit.

They got after him.

They got after Justin Herbert.

And

he finally looked mortal because he had been playing playing out of his mind.

The first three games, he had played out of his mind.

Yeah, crazy.

But today, he looked like a mere mortal.

And my young bull over there on the other side, who's been having some struggles, Quentin Johnston.

Yeah, yeah.

Looking like that boy, looking like how he's supposed to be.

Now that confidence is set in, he's stringing games like this back to back to back.

And for him, it's only right from there.

I just want to give him his praise because we've been down on him because, you know, because of his recent

drops.

He struggled early.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But, but, hey, Quentin Johnson, boy, I know you're going to see this boy.

But you that boy.

Keep going, boy.

Keep going.

Keenan Allen looked good.

Yeah, well, Keenan Allen, Keenan Allen, we already know what he can do.

We know what he can do.

So we just picking up where he left off.

Hampton.

Hampton had 12 for a buck 28.

Hey, boy, he was toting that thing, boy.

And can.

Yeah, he was nice.

He was nice.

Yeah, but a scat Pack, Scat Pack go, hey, hey, he go, hey, he get a couple of hundred yard game.

He gonna own, he and Jackson Dart go own the city.

Oh, yeah, absolutely.

Absolutely.

Listen,

if Dodge was smart, they'd be doing a commercial, a Scat Pack commercial with Scatterboat.

It only makes sense.

It only makes sense.

I need 3% if that happened to Scatterbow.

Hey, Dodge.

Holla Scatterbowl, Scatback commercial.

The Chargers have an O-line problem with your left tackle.

Joe Alt left the game early with an ankle injury,

putting an already injured offensive line because he was filling in for

what's the guy?

He just got the big contract.

Slater, Rashawn Slater.

He was filling in because he moved from right tackle to left tackle to replace Slater.

Slater's out.

Herbert was under siege.

He was pressured on almost 48% of his dropbacks.

Boy,

it's tough.

It's tough.

Now, listen,

he looked normal because he ain't got your offensive line now.

It's hard.

It's hard.

You're running for your life from your Olinic there.

Lamar today.

Justin Herbert.

I mean, shh, man.

Ocho Philly survives in.
