00:03oh what a weekend it was we saw five teams in the top 10 go down that chaos that we
00:09all crave in
00:10college football that will be fleeting we got to enjoy this weekend that plus some nfl stories
00:15let's do it you want to swap byu is a national title contender forget about making the playoff
00:23they can win it all look around college football these sec juggernauts all lost byu just beat
00:30somebody of note they can win it all john i think it's still a little bit of an overreaction
00:36do they belong could they possibly play for a national title maybe i don't know i mean you
00:44look at notre dame where that was this just their their toughest test wisconsin rice michigan state
00:49purdue north carolina stanford i mean like i don't even know that they were prepared for this
00:54game because of the other teams that they played i think it says more about notre dame not being the
00:59number two team in the country than it does about byu actually now being the number two team in the
01:04country don't give them the credit for beating notre dame oh no they get the credit for beating
01:07notre dame i just said they did but it's no good now i don't think they're as good as people
01:13had
01:13thought that they were i don't think there's an overreaction i mean the number two team in the
01:18country how can we say they're not a title contender okay there's a lot of sec teams that
01:23have underachieved this year would like to be number two right now look at the fact that i think
01:27they're a big boy is the offense did well against a what i would say is a great college defense
01:34now the
01:35big thing here is maybe why it is an overreaction now you have the big points on big big boy
01:40pants on
01:41can you deal with success i would point to georgia just the week before coming off a big win
01:47fell into the trap weren't ready to play against auburn blew it one thing i should mention because
01:52i know greg you're big lj martin fan they still could get him back at some point too that was
01:57their
01:57best player a year ago they're doing this without their best offensive player cougars are here
02:02i chase brown kids as much as i loathe to admit it notre dame got a raw deal i love
02:09when they lose
02:09i'm happy they lost but that was pass interference and there was a second left on the tv
02:15and stadium clock there should have been another play and they had been so good on that drive
02:20converting multiple fourth downs they got hosed uh yeah sure they got the short end of the stick at
02:25the very end should have been pass interference and they should have had another play but i don't know
02:29that they would have actually come through with another play this everything led up to it i said this
02:34in our picks i hope they don't go into this game with the dink and dunk mentality cj car can
02:40take the top
02:41off of a defense they didn't allow him to do that especially in the first half now at the end
02:46of
02:46the first half like you come away without any points that that that one was on cj and there are
02:53other times it's not just what byu did it's a lot what notre dame didn't do yes they got a
03:00raw deal
03:01so this is not an overreaction that was dpi there was a second left they got screwed two times in
03:07one
03:07play basically you know i i in honor of notre dame rob who listens to us all the time they
03:13got robbed
03:13you know god i thought about him too you're right hey maybe they can try to pull and tug at
03:19it maybe
03:20they can complain to their conference commissioner to see if it could be overturned wait who notre
03:25dame should complain to their yeah michigan waited too long to go to tommy carr and it will be the
03:30biggest reason they missed the college football playoff they could already have one more win
03:35one fewer loss this is why they will miss um and not an overreaction that they waited too long to
03:42go to tommy but an overreaction that's the biggest reason they missed the playoffs um maybe it's kind
03:48of the chicken or the egg if he's in there like we saw in the second half does the running
03:51game
03:51get going earlier in the season possibly i think it's the underperformance of the offensive line
03:57early and then you still have indiana you have a trip to eugene you've got ohio state and who knows
04:04what ohio state looks like at that time same with with uh you know that trip to eugene and oregon
04:09right but i think there are other factors at play as to why they won't be a playoff team
04:13so the first part of this is not an overreaction because they did wait too long it was again
04:18beating a dead horse perfect opportunity after the second pick in minnesota to put car in that
04:23situation go out there and win the game and if you would have done that then your season's really
04:28alive yeah i gotta see tommy carr do this against indiana though i gotta see him play with poise
04:33against a great defensive line so let's just pump the brakes a little panama panama
04:42arch manning needs to come back to school to a different school he's been at texas four years
04:49and he's still doing this he's not an nfl player and he should go somewhere else to try to be
04:54an nfl
04:55player um not an overreaction that he needs to come back to school i think that's obvious an
05:00overreaction that maybe he has to go to a different school i don't know if a different school makes
05:04that big of a difference maybe it does maybe it's a fresh start maybe it's a different voice a
05:08different quarterback coach i don't know but i think it's it's it's certainly not an overreaction
05:13to think that he has to come back for another year to continue to develop to try and be an
05:18nfl
05:18quarterback but i thought the hate was only because of his last name stupid sarkeesian quote
05:24not an overreaction he should come back i think it's starting to become obvious looking at mock
05:29drafts that he's starting to plummet a little bit um and maybe a qb that's going to rise up and
05:35probably should go higher than he's being mocked is cj carr and then arch manning should go to notre
05:41dame next year and play for mike denbrough could be or maybe they just need a new coach at texas
05:48maybe i'm not a sarkesian guy never have been i think he's an oc not a head coach think about
05:53this before you hit that button greg sark brought in two of the greatest recruits in the history of
05:57football and when yours and arch manning and what have they done with them quinn got drafted in the
06:03seventh round and what's arch's draft stock right now be very careful choosing to play for sark in
06:08austin do you believe the last place rams are not a super bowl contender
06:17if beating the cards by 24 points means nothing losing to them at home is a disaster
06:24they're now oh and two in the division i love the sarm i thought of that about 10 times yesterday
06:29oh i did too i hate that i had i hate that that you were in my head as i
06:35was watching that game
06:36um not an overreaction i don't think they're a super bowl contender for a number of reasons one i
06:41i can't explain the play calling in their last drive i just i the screens with the amount of
06:50talent that they have offensively and i know devontae adams was you know out he who knows what
06:55how long he's going to be out but they have maybe the best grouping of tight ends in the nfl
07:01and they
07:02try and run screen after screen especially the fourth down call i i just i didn't explain and then
07:07special teams it is one of three phases they're relying on a putter now he came through yeah but
07:14you just you you've completely blanked on preparing on special teams so it's not an overreaction right
07:21now they can become a super bowl contender again if they get back to doing what they're supposed to
07:26do and sean mcveigh's trying to get too cute here with all this tight end crap guess what your offense
07:32runs through a balanced kyron williams and puka nakua and they've gotten away from the run game
07:38consistently they've tried to incorporate quorum into this thing feed the beast kyron williams is a
07:46good number one running back not great but good but commit to the run open up play action start
07:52running your offense and get your special teams right real quick do they even make the playoffs
07:57no i would say yes right now i think there's by the way non-contact injury that's another thing
08:02they're going to survive the ram seahawks uh in terms of the second team out of the west
08:11kenneth walker was the best free agent addition in football it's saquon all over again where he
08:17powered them in part with their defense to a championship kansas city will ride kenneth walker
08:23to a super bowl not an overreaction i think it's 100 that he is the best free agent signing now
08:29a
08:30couple of other really sneaky good free agent signings obviously mike evans out in in san francisco
08:35kirk cousins with the raiders like he no one's going to sit there and say he's a top 10 quarterback
08:40but
08:40he is the reason that they have found success and that they're competitive but with what kenneth walker
08:46is doing and it's amazing to watch a front office understand that we have a quarterback that is
08:53still one of the best quarterbacks and will be for a long time in the nfl yet he's coming off
08:58an acl
08:58what do we do how do we assist our quarterback well let's give him a dominant run game that's not
09:04an
09:04overreaction who's beating them right now who's going to beat them this is easily the best free agent
09:09addition in the offseason i don't see anybody rising to the occasion in the afc the bills don't
09:16have a defense he's going to run all over them and then mahomes gonna be able to do whatever he
09:20wants
09:21josh allen won't be able to outscore him you can book it barring significant injuries although i do
09:25think they should look to add a receiver at the debt before the deadline here give mahomes something
09:30else to work with thanks kind of my ada the philadelphia eagles season is over they've lost four in a
09:38row they're going to draft in the top 10 and they're going to select a quarterback
09:43not an overreaction that their season is over they've lost what four of the five components of
09:47their offensive line uh jordan mylotta is their only one that's that's back at left tackle um
09:54and who knows how long jalen hurts is out might be for the rest of the season yeah they're going
10:00to
10:00be picking in the top 10 i think it's a bit of an overreaction to think that they might be
10:03taking a
10:04quarterback and if they do what do they do with jalen hurts that's the bigger question because
10:10there's a lot of teams that would love to have jalen hurts do they trade him is that is that
10:14a
10:14golf type of trade where they get a couple of number one picks and they parlay that into who is
10:20the next
10:21quarterback and what else are we going to get along with it i'm going to say this is an overreaction
10:26for now uh and i'm buying into the fact that hurts would be back sooner than later in this situation
10:32but the reason it's not over for them is the division the cowboys are two and four just like
10:38them i'd pick the eagles to beat the cowboys right now the cowboys can't stop anybody in their offense
10:42dac look at dac last night for those out there who think dac is better than golf watch last night's
10:46game that's a good thing they got joey porter jr yeah exactly uh and also i don't believe in the
10:51giants and i'm going to caution the people out there don't buy into the jj stuff what don't buy in
10:59the most passing yards yeah so history in 11 minutes so it was kevin o'connell's fault in
11:04minnesota okay now garbage time against probably one of the worst defenses in the league in the
11:09saints did you see who the giants play next week they play minnesota at the houston texans with
11:15domico ryan's calling go ahead and throw jj to the fire see how that goes this is my favorite one
11:21we end on this the nfc north will get three playoff teams the entire division has a winning record
11:28green bay got that win on sunday night chicago's got some life with caleb back minnesota's undefeated
11:35lions are set to get some additions coming out of their bye week and look around it's a one bid
11:39out
11:39of the east it's a one team from the south are we sure we're getting three from the west with
11:44la
11:44struggles there will be three teams from our division in the playoffs not an overreaction
11:50because the nfc south that's a one that's a one team uh division the nfc east is a one team
11:57division and i think the the west is is a two team division probably the niners and seahawks i think
12:03i think arizona and the rams they're they're they're they're done and you're going to then get
12:09three out of the nfc north i don't think it's an overreaction at all yeah i don't think it's an
12:13overreaction uh if you look at the west right now i feel like either the rams or seahawks are going
12:20to
12:20their best record the lesser of the two will be 10 and 7 or worse and i think the north
12:26can get
12:26three 11 win teams or maybe they get in on the tiebreakers i know the bears play the seahawks
12:30coming up there are some head-to-heads with the west here that the lions don't have to do like
12:34the
12:35vikings have to play the rams that are going to determine this maybe a little bit we want our west
12:38uh crossover we beat the cards that doesn't mean anything according to you go ahead no i do think
12:46right now the north will get three teams will the lions be one of them well that's a different
12:51discussion we're going to find out a lot this week overreaction's 97 one
