00:00To show you that I am in a good mood today and that we are not going to start with
00:05Harrison Bucker in the missed kick.
00:06We're not going to start with the failed quarterback sneak with Justin Fields.
00:10I want to talk to you about yesterday and how yesterday makes me feel and how the trade deadline coming
00:17up and seeing the moves of the Jacksonville Jaguars also how it makes me feel.
00:22Now, I can't speak for everybody, but for me, it felt good to have a pressure-free, stress-free second
00:32half and especially fourth quarter against a team like the New York Jets.
00:38Now, I told you guys last week, I just wasn't really excited about this game.
00:44Now, I'll talk about the Atlanta Falcons game a little bit differently.
00:50Finally, the game against the Arizona Cardinals is going to have all the makings of a trap game, but I
00:55just could never find the energy and enthusiasm to really break down this New York Jets team because they are
01:04an awful football team.
01:06This is a New York Jets team that has won five of their last 21 games.
01:12This is a New York Jets team that I believe is going to fire their head coach before the end
01:17of the season.
01:18This is a New York Jets team that I think is going to have a new quarterback next year.
01:23They are not a good football team, but you know what really encourages me the most is after the missed
01:32kick from Harrison Bucker, which just felt like, okay, here we go.
01:37Everybody was just sitting up waiting to see what was going to happen, and we got our answer.
01:41The Chiefs outscored the New York Jets 21-0 in the final 30 minutes of that football game.
01:48Patrick Mahomes was 21-31, 242 yards passing, two touchdowns, no interceptions.
01:55Kenneth Walker ran it for 100 yards and had three touchdowns on the day.
01:59He had almost 150 scrimmage yards against the New York Jets.
02:03The defense got after the other team's quarterback was disruptive, kept the Jets out of the end zone in yesterday's
02:10game.
02:11We have to start the conversation today with, doesn't it just feel good to watch the Chiefs just put it
02:18on one of these teams and put it on one of these opponents?
02:21Because last year's version of the Kansas City Chiefs, they didn't really have the ability to do those kind of
02:27things, even to a team like the New York Jets.
02:30I would argue two years ago, the last year that the Chiefs went to the Super Bowl, that team, we
02:37saw them struggle against teams like the New York Jets.
02:41Now, they always found a way to win.
02:43I was never worried about that, but that game against the Jets would have been unusually hairy in the final
02:5015 minutes of the game.
02:52The Chiefs would have needed to make a play or pull one out of the fire in a game against
02:58the New York Jets in a way that a championship contending team doesn't need to do.
03:02So it just felt good to me that heading into the fourth quarter of that game, you know what you
03:08could have done?
03:09You could have put that on the second TV and you could have started watching Red Zone.
03:13You know what you could have done?
03:14You could have started playing with your kids a little bit and had the game on in the background because
03:19you're not overly focused.
03:20You know what you could have did?
03:22You could have went outside and really enjoyed the beautiful weather that we are having.
03:26It feels like these are the last few beautiful weather days that we are having.
03:31Doesn't it feel good to sit here today and talk about how the Chiefs absolutely dominated and potentially tripled up
03:39another team in the National Football League?
03:42So trust me, we'll talk about Chris Jones who had two sacks or had a sack.
03:46We'll talk about Ashton Gelati who got to the other team's quarterback.
03:49We'll talk about all those things, but I at least want to start with, don't you feel good today?
03:54Didn't you walk into work with a little extra pep in your step?
03:58Especially if you're a Mizzou fan with the weekend that Missouri had, especially if you're a Kansas fan,
04:03potentially seeing the end of Lance Leipold's era, K-State, you guys got dumped this weekend.
04:10Doesn't it feel good to just watch the Chiefs do what they're supposed to do and take care of business?
04:15Now, I still believe, and text line, tell me if I'm wrong, 913-586-7965.
04:21I still feel like the trade deadline is the big cloud that is around not just this team,
04:29but the rest of the National Football League.
04:31We only have 25 more hours of this conversation.
04:36Yes, 25 more hours of this.
04:39So tomorrow at 3 o'clock, we will have our answer on if the Chiefs made a move,
04:45if this team made a move, and what that potentially means for the second half of the season.
04:50But as we sit here right now, on November 9th, a little more than a day out of the NFL
04:58trade deadline,
05:00I think that we are at this point, I think it's Josh Downs or nobody for the Chiefs.
05:06If you are reading all the reports, all the tea leaves, if you are trying to gather all of this
05:13information
05:13and trying to decipher what's real and what's not real,
05:17I do believe that the Chiefs have interest in Josh Downs.
05:21Now, what I can't really figure out is have the Chiefs made their final offer to Indianapolis
05:27and they are perfectly fine if they don't get them.
05:31But I do believe based on everything that you are reading, everything that you are putting together,
05:37I believe that the Chiefs have put in their bid to go get Josh Downs.
05:42Now, maybe they get them, maybe they don't get them.
05:44I'm starting to lean with the they probably aren't going to get them
05:47and this team's probably not going to make a move.
05:49But more and more, I don't think that Brian Thomas Jr. is truly available
05:55and I don't think that any of the moves today for Jacksonville really combat that.
06:00If anything, I think it cements it more than anything.
06:04I think the Jacksonville Jaguars are letting you know that they're going for it
06:08and whatever offer that you potentially would throw out there for Brian Thomas Jr.,
06:13I think that same offer would be there on November 10th
06:16that it would be there for March 10th or April 10th.
06:20So if you're Jacksonville and you know this and the league has kind of told you
06:23what they think Brian Thomas is worth, they either think he's worth a third or a fourth round pick,
06:28I don't know if that changes a whole lot over the next four or five months.
06:32So I think Jacksonville ultimately is going to make the decision,
06:35let's keep them because we don't know what's going to happen.
06:38What if Parker Washington gets injured?
06:40What if Jacoby Myers gets injured?
06:42We want to have Brian Thomas Jr. in the short term in the interim
06:46as a potential insurance for a possible injury and we'll decide from there.
06:52But watching Jacksonville make two separate trades today on the defensive side of the football,
06:57picking up a safety, picking up a defensive lineman,
06:59this to me is a team that thinks they are going for it.
07:04This is a team that legitimately looks at themselves as a championship Super Bowl contending team
07:09and they were making moves to solidify some of their weaknesses to turn them into strengths.
07:14I don't know if that team a day later now subtracts from their roster.
07:20Let's trading away Brian Thomas, regardless of how you think they're using them or how you feel
07:25by definition, that is subtracting from their roster.
07:28I don't think that Jacksonville is making a move.
07:30I don't think that it's realistic to think that the Chiefs are trading for Don Tavian Wicks
07:34or any of these other names.
07:36You've heard no smoke.
07:36You've heard no rumor to support that.
07:38So I think as we sit here right now and the deadline is tomorrow at three o'clock,
07:43I think it's Josh Downs or nobody for the Kansas City Chiefs.
07:47And more so specifically, I think it is.
07:50I think the Chiefs have made their offer.
07:52Are the Colts going to take Kansas City's offer, potentially take Pittsburgh's offer,
07:57or are they going to stand firm, stand pat, and the fire sale for the Colts is done.
08:02But that's where I think we currently sit.
08:05So today's show is going to be a lot about the win against the Jets, a lot about the thing.
