Good Morning Football.
Yeah, this is Good Morning Football. We are presented by Old Trapper Beef Jerkey. Life here in LA and New York City. That is Kyle Brandt, Peter Scheger, Ubar buj Bim Milla, and I am Jamie Rdall. The Chiefs are unbeaten at seven to zero. Detroit is six and one. Peter, who is the more impressive team between these two right now?
Look, I know it's the Titans, but the Lions just continue to roll, and they're doing so in such a unique fashion.
That it's not Jared Golfer.
Jared Golf for less than ninety yards, David Montgomery had less than forty yards.
Amon ross Brown I think I had two catches.
They find a way every different week to do.
It with different talent. It's incredible. I think what they're.
Doing right now is so so impressive.
So the Chiefs find a way to win.
There's an argument we made that like, hey, when you're the hunted like they are, and to scrap and crawl and be able to just eke out victories, and I mean the Raiders, they made it a closer one with had a touchdown light. But the Lions to me to be dominating in this fashion over NFL teams the last three week. I mean that Seahawks game golf went eighteen for eighteen. They play the Cowboys, they embarrassed them and cause everyone to wonder if they should fire the entire staff over there bye week, last week, the way they win in dramatic fashion with the Bates field goal, and then this week to just dismantle an NFL team the way that they do and they put fifty up again. I have to say the team that is more impressive week to week right now is the Detroit Lions. But that's taking nothing away from the Chiefs, who are doing it despite being the hunted team in the NFL and somehow still the undefeated squad left at the top of the standings.
All Right, I don't know why we can't we can't all just say it together. The Kansas City Chiefs are the best team. They're the most impressive team. They're seven and oh. We had this discussion a couple of weeks ago where we were talking about the Ravens, and I think overwhelmingly everyone thought the Ravens and now I'm sitting here again and I'm advocating for the Yes, sloppy, sure, but the Kansas City Chiefs are balling, and no matter what they have in front of them, no matter what type of adversity they had in front of them, they still go in ball. Defensively, they have become that team. You think about this goal line stands and Drew Tranquill coming out there and balling. Not only is he out there stuffing at the goal line when he shoots that gap, but also in the same game there's a recovery Gardner Minshew, you know, just game awareness, situation awareness, picking up the ball, fumble recovery. This dude plays football. Now, I will say, you know, when I look at this and I know everyone's talking about, you know, offensively, where I don't even want to talk Patrick Mahomes because I think we know Chris Jones, we know Patrick Mahomes. Drew Trenkle that's a name that everybody should know and continue to say because he's also part of this top defense that is playing hard. But I will say one other thing. Travis Kelce hasn't been playing like Travis Kelce that we know. And he had his first touchdown in thirteen games, like, this is a team that continues to adjust when they have adversity. That's one of the top tight ends, and yet he hasn't been as productive as we've seen in years past, and yet they still find a way to be seven to zero. To me, that's the true testament of a strong team. So who's more impressive the Kansas City Chiefs.
We've got different species of impressiveness going on.
Impressiveness.
Yes, it's like the Lions just are unconscious. They're standing in the corner, just clapping for the ball. Just get them the ball. They're shooting heat checks from the logo they're making them. There's heat checks on heat checks. My take on the Lions is, I honestly believe if they had a few days notice, they could have played all of their second string yesterday and beaten the Titans like they.
Just have it going.
They could have put in Hennon Hooker throwing passes to Alan Robinson whoever their backup guys. I think they could have won that game, and they probably could have won some other games in their schedule. They just are unconscious. They can't miss. They're so the chemistry is incredible and the talent is great to back it up. You know how hard it is to keep winning when you're not playing that well. That's why I actually think the answer is the Chiefs. I understand why the Lions are winning. I do, and I've seen teams get unconscious before and if they just tear through everybody, the Chiefs don't really have it and they never lose.
It's unbelievable. And they did it again. Mahomes gets picked off.
Keep in their own territory and it's like, oh man, the Raiders is gonna get him again, and then the defense makes this incredible stand and bails them out.
Patrick Mahomes, the face of the.
Sport, has lower passer ratings this year than anybody from Aaron Rodgers to Caleb Williams to Drake May.
You can just take your pick.
He leads the league in interceptions. No one has thrown more. Jordan Love has thrown as many, and those two guys may play in the Super Bowl.
It is not normal. It's really unique season. I get it.
Some teams have great years and they fly through every but that's what the Lions have going on. I cannot think of a team that is undefeated into Halloween and still is not playing that well on offense, really actually and sometimes playing poorly. So the fact that the Chiefs are that well built, that well coached, that disciplined, et cetera, et cetera, to still win with their quarterback leading the league in interceptions, not just win, never lose, That to me is actually more interesting and more impressive. Lions amazing, Chiefs, fascinating and undefeated.
The different levels. I like it. And this is these are two teams that I had going to the Super Bowl. I've got the Lions. I've got This is a preview. This topic that we're talking about is the preview of the Super Bowl that I called. But I will tell you and give on because I want to give the Lions credit. What they did on special teams. That was impressive. That part was really impressive. Two hundred and sixty two yards on special teams. Punp return, they went off, kick return, they went off. I mean, shout out to Khalif Raymond for that touchdown on the punt. I mean that was just big Tom. I mean he just went off. I've never seen a production well I don't know, I've never seen, but this is probably one of the best special teams productions I've seen, especially this year. I know for sure this year we hadn't seen anything like it. Outstanding special team calls, so complimentary football, offense, defense, and special teams.
I was going to say, I don't know if anyone's ever heard this one before, but all three phases it takes, I don't know.
We appreciate that.
Jamis Jamis, Jamis, and it was the good Jamis the fun Jamis Browns had a really, really impressive win. Jamis led from the front and of course boundless sound bites, some of them even referencing a rapper from Detroit right after this not.
Going anywhere.
Good football. Tamis to time, David's Tillman.
Don't stop, tell me you done?
Still wait?
He doesn't camp sat Ball won a blow by James Winston over three hundred yards filled in the first thunder yard David thirty eight yards Jamis to Tillman. When we first started as a show in twenty sixteen, our very first guest in our very first episode was this man.
We love to have him back. We are thrilled.
He's been through so much and he is now the QB one of the Cleveland Browns ladies and gentlemen, Jamis wine, Jamis.
Hey, what's up, guys? So grateful to have his opportunities to join you yet again, thrilled.
Honestly, it's really cool to see you, especially Jamis, with everything you got going on right now, huge win over the Ravens. You weren't just out there playing football for the first time in while you're winning, You're with your teammates, you're celebrating, you're doing your whole Jamis emotional, motivational thing.
It was beautiful to watch. What was it like to feel for.
You extreme gratitude just to have the opportunity to be back on the field as a stern quarterback for the Cleveland Browns. But man, my focus right now is taking one player at a time, one game at a time. Consistency is the name of this game. So we end on Tuesday and all day getting better than that.
Jamis.
There's this amazing quality to you. Every time you open your mouth, the viewer at home or the fan at home is not only at the edge of their seat, but they're smiling because you have this contagious charisma that everyone rallies around, and your teammates seem to rally around it.
Too.
I have to ask you, when this is all done the football stuff, are you going to come into the media world with us?
Are you going to have your show? Are you going to do these podcasts?
Like what's next for Jamis after this amazing career is put to raps because I have to tell you, I see the Kelsey brothers doing their podcast, James on a podcast, I am here for it.
I appreciate you.
Peter, Well, it's a memait effect man Like guys like authentic people.
Uh.
And when you can easily be who you are every single day, people respect that. So whatever is required for me to do after my football career, but what's required me right now? Man's folkused to know one day at a time, one player at the time, and getting better at what I'm doing now so that I can have a better platform when my career is done.
All right? So Jamis say, look, you're always so electric, man. I love everything from social media to looking at some of the behind the scenes, your pregame speeches break down, you're breaking down the huddle, and this week it really was no different. Like, let's take a listen.
Every one of us have an individual responsibility to go out there and fight for each other.
Represent the names on your back, represents the names that's on your helmet. Well, we don't got to be cat represent them all right? One play all right together? All right, here we go.
I love the ability that you were to come out of that and then get right back into it though, But take us into the lapt How do you come up with some of these things that you say? Is it rehearsed or is you doing it all freestyle?
Man?
I love what I do, and when you love what you do, man, it like sometimes words just come out. You know. I'm very passionate about this game of football, and this is something that the Lord has given me since I've been four years old. I've been playing this game so over experience of talking with different people and stilling different emotions. I just feel like I just have to express how I feel to my teammates and I can just encourage one person to ride with me, and I know I encourage way more than one person to ride with me. We won't have a good day. You know.
I got to follow up with this because I was talking to the defensive line coach Jaxi's there, and he said this about you, you know, especially he's on the other side of the ball. He was just saying, your leadership, especially being a backup, is in infectious and now that you have that starting role, why didn't you ever shy away from that even when you were in the number two position.
Well, it's about again being who you are. You can only be who you are and whether whatever position you're in, whatever circumstances, conditions, or facts that you're facing, you have to show up and be who you are every single day because I know guys pay attention to that, and guys respect that.
Jameis what you do when you bring everybody together, whether it be the pregame speech, pregame interview, postgame interview one in which you referenced that white boy from Detroit, the rapper and Eminem. It was amazing to watch your brain process that, because I think you got a little nervous that you're the Cleveland quarterback and you're talking about a guy from Detroit. Did you were you nervous that you were going to catch some heat about the Eminem reference there, like in the meat in the middle of you dropping the lines.
Not at all, actually, because like that was my one shot and well, someone who people deem as one of the greatest of all time. Like, I think that those are good words and and I'm gonna live with that one.
Just a couple of years ago, you.
Gave everyone an anatomy lessen, take your listen.
Our body is so symmetrical, right you got you got your wrists, you know, and what are your wrists on the bottom half?
Your ankles? You know? You got your shoulders up top? What are your shoulders? Your hips? You know what I'm saying. You got your elbows?
What are you elbows? Your knees?
Right?
Like, so it's symmetrical and you just gotta work different parts all.
Right, man, I see you have to doing your dance like, like, where did that come from?
Man?
You gonna help us.
Out well one that it just came from learning your body as as I as I continue to mature in this profession. Uh, I learned different things about my body and I see how symmetrical my body is with my different body parts. So you know, if I know something, I promise you I'm gonna share with the world sometimes. You know, a lot of people get a kick out of that. You know, some people are actually educated from how many people do you think understood that the elbows were like, you need you know, you just got to you got to educate people.
Man, I'm about learning, which they both been. I feel you perfect. You are about learning.
And you know, if we have anything in common with you, Jamis is we know what it's like to fully commit to something and maybe everyone's not gonna like it. Maybe everyone is. To that point when you ate the W on this show, we understood, like we weren't out to make fun of this. We're like, look, we do some stuff. Sometimes it's crazy and maybe not everybody loves, but we go with it. And you were passionate about it. The infamous W speech. Can you tell us where that came from? The origin story, like how you thought that up and how it went for you?
Well, it was a whole week process. Man. Been in the division, the NFC South Division, man with three Hall of Fame quarterbacks, you know, and competing and we're in the dome, Man, and we're trying to find a way to get a win. Man, I was just it for win. So earlier that year I talked about you know, the alphabet suit and Ian W's Even earlier that week I got some W pancakes made from my office alignment.
So we man.
Listen, it's the whole visual process, you know whatever. It takes weekend and week out to encourage guys to come and show up and show out and do what the Lord called us to do, and that.
Was getting a W.
Unfortunately didn't get to W that day, but we ended up getting some later down the road.
Legend has it that Shaun Jackson is still standing there a frozen looking.
It was an amazing moment.
Man the sun wanted the ball.
He didn't want no W handshakes.
I get yeah, all right, so listen, James, I mean this, and it is really really cool that you're here. I mentioned it when we brought you in. But we started this show in twenty sixteen. We had no idea if it was going to work or how it was going to go, but we wanted as our first guest the quarterback of the Tenth Bay Buccaneers.
You came on. You were incredible, really helped.
Us, and that day I actually got the chance to ask you what you would tell your younger self, and this is eight years.
A good question. And back in twenty sixteen, listen, my train the oldest lever.
He sent me a clip of Steve Harvey talking about what he would do back in the day and how your early years end up reflecting on your later years.
You know.
So now that I'm trying to mature, I'm trying to be a better person every single day. I realized that your early year is always going to show you where you're gonna end up in your later years.
Would it like to watch that back?
Man, It's great to watch it back because you know, I was who I was back then, and as I'm continuing to grow immature, my early years are adding up. Is that compound interest? Is that compound effect? So every single day I'm approaching it to be a man of increase in MTA Christ. So as I continue to do that, dog, it is the limit, And if the sky's the limit, you can't say the sky's the limit when people have been on the moon, you know. So going up, I'm gonna keep on inspiring people and hopefully you know, somebody grow from that.
You cannot say sky is the limit when people have been on the moon.
That's that's awesome.
That is I love that I'm writing that down. Jamis.
You know you're one of our favorites, and you know that Browns fans are riding around you now, and I know you love Miles Garrett in that locker room. And he showed up to the stadium with a pretty cool costume on Sunday. I don't know if you saw it, the entire terminator. Look, Uh, jameis, will you be dressing up for Halloween on Thursday? And if so, can you give us a spoiler? What does jameis Winston go as it is Halloween this year now that you're the starting quarterback of the Cleveland Browns.
Man.
Honestly, my wife told me what we were gonna be yesterday, and I forgot what it was. I think it was like whatever whatever movie to fucking Jane and Jackson was in that Justice, True True Justice. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so that's what she said we were gonna be. I was like, I was like, just make sure that I get me a good open agers. I don't know, you know, no cheap open age Rica hend Us in the South.
Yeah, that means you gotta get the bike jump haircut.
Then you're gonna do it.
You're gonna do what justice. You gotta do the bike jump.
You gotta go all the way in.
Hold on.
My hand on that way that way.
That's the safe. That's incredible. I love that, Jamis said. My wife told me what we're gonna be. That's walking our world. James, that's how it goes. We know. Listen, you did it.
You did You're incredible to watch back on the field this past weekend. We are rooting for you, but just more importantly like you're an old friend of the show and we are so excited to have you back on and we wish you nothing but the best.
Go get them this weekend. Okay, Jameis man, thank you so much.
I'm so happy that you guys kick off the day just football and all the excitement. Man, y'all really bring y'all making so many people days like obviously talking football, but talking life. Man, y'all are so encouraging us. So I'm helpful. I'm grateful to help you out this morning.
That's incredible.
They call that poetic justice today.
That's Jamis Pancakes for everybody WK cake, specifically Jameis.
Wins and everybody. He could be a pastor too, a pastor.
Good morning football.
We are setting up for mad Minute. We're gonna put sixty seconds on the clock, go around the horn. Remember we have to share the minute. So we just heard from Jamie there in Minnesota. They're hosting the four and four Colts. Joe Flacco, remember replacing Anthony Richardson at QB mantime. And to start with you, how do you see this game playing out? Jamie's gonna try to set the stage in Minnesota follow suit.
Yeah no, I said a couple of weeks ago, Josh downs. When he gets the ball, a lot good things happen. And now they have a quarterback that's going to get him the ball alongside Michael Pittman Alec Pearson.
What does that do for your team?
Allows Jonathan Taylor to get busy in that run game, So I think it was a good It was a good move. It puts him in a better position to win some games. So let's go Joe Flacco at your time.
Yeah, you know, I look at the vikings are September darlings. Okay, the best story of the first part of the season, guys. The calendar says November first. Right now, this is this big boy time. We're gonna see what teams are really made of. A home loss to Joe Flacco for your third in a row.
We are in a free fall.
If you're the Vikings, I would like to see them pull out of this, but I don't know yet.
Jamie better give him some goodluck, ock par What do you think?
Well, good move by the Minnesota Vikings picking up Cam Robinson. I thought that was pretty big, especially since they got the big loss on the offensive line. But I'm looking at Josh dall Mantaw. You mentioned Josh Down. He's had great numbers with Joe Fleckel, that Mattelis and Josh Downs. When you see him kind of lining up on him in the slot position, that one's gonna go down. That's gonna be a big matchup.
Think it's gonna be a close. All eight of the Colts games have been designed by six points or fewers, so buckle up in that one. But looking at the struggling Jags, they head of the City of Brotherly Love facing the Eagles, who have won four of their last five. Kyle in the Return of Doug Peterson where there is a statue of him outside the building, does he get a victory in this one?
Does he get the last laugh?
You should get respect and he should get cheers.
Did you get a damn standing ovation? This guy?
Brought a Super Bowl championship, not a Super Bowl appearance like Sirianni, a super Bowl championship in a game in which Tom Brady broke every single Super Bowl passing record and the Eagles still won. Respect this man, Honor this man, and then beat the hell out of this man. Eagles, let's go. If you're a great team, I think we hit our stride now. I think you might be. I'm not sure yet. You should be able to win this game at home.
I'm looking at this matchup Barkley, Saquon Barkley and going up against the linebacker Olu o'cun those two they're going to have to face it up because right now Barkley's playing great football. He's making Jalen Hurst look good. But that defense on the other side for the Jags, they're going to have their hands full trying to stop this run.
Twenty twenty four should be the year of quarterbacks not having the number one and number two receivers. We saw it last night with CJ.
Stroud.
The Niner's been going through it a little bit, and Jacksonville is no different. They don't have Christian Kirk, they might not have Brian Thomas Junior. So Trevor Lawrence and Gabe Davis connection has been great and Evan Ingram has been great. But can Gabe Davis get in there and get some production?
I don't know.
All right, moving on to our next game. I'm even wearing some Falcons gear. We have some very cool Atlanta gas coming up on the show on GMFP and gmfbot. But Kirk Cousins and the Falcons, they welcome in America's team in the Cowboys.
Who Dallas is.
Remember coming off that Monday night loss versus the forty nine ers, hope to turn things around. We've really enjoyed watching Kirk o chains their ackbar. But maybe Dallas can find a way to get this one.
Yeah, well they have to really dig deep defensively. Eric Kendricks, I'm looking at him, how are you going to handle this run game? Because we do know that Bjon Robinson, he's been outstanding. But this offense, this all offenses moving at a high rate. They're pushing three hundred seventy plus yards a game. Let's see if they're Dallas Cowboys defense can step up.
Well, their offense is pushing you know that that rate, and you know chery you mentioned Krko chains the Dallas Cowboys offense, they aren't moving chains all that much right now. And they're really missing Brandon Cooks. That's that's who I really think they're missing in this game. They've been missing him for a few weeks with injury, that vertical threat. I think getting him back eventually is going to help this offense. But it's gonna be tough. I'm going against Atlanta Folcons.
It's gonna be tough going against Atlanta Falcons for sure.
Man Ti and he just.
I this is the kind of game that the Cowboys win because they shouldn't. They're not playing well. They're going up against a better roster and a team that's playing better. It's just hard to see. I've done this enough times, have been around the globe enough times doing this NFL thing to not know that the Cowboys rise up when you don't expect them to. I can't imagine them at three and five. I actually think the Cowboys find a way to squeak this one out. And I can't even really explain why.
That's an analysis the parody of the NFL right summed up in a nutshell, looking though Sean Payton and Bo Nicks Broncos sitting at five and three, the Ravens coming off a last minute lost to Jamis Winston in the Brown. This is gonna be a best on best when these two get together. Top three and scoring and total offense for Baltimore. But Manti, this Broncos defense is nothing to overlook.
Man, The Broncos defense isn't anything to overlook. And we've heard all year long the success of Lamar Jackson and Derek Henry. Bug guys, there is a young man coming back here as a rookie last year.
His name is Keaton Mitchell.
When Key and Mitchell had in games that he played in last year, he was electric.
He was dynamics.
So just imagine a Ravens offense that takes Dereck Henry off the field in those third down situations and put in put in this guy named Keateon Mitchell.
It's going to be electric for me.
Yeah, you know, the electricity for me is going to come to Sean Payton on the sideline. I think he understands what a big game this is, what an opportunity this is. This is Peyton versus John Harbor. Those are two made guys and two Super Bowl champs. We've been for decades. I think Peyton is going to be electric factory. He wants this one bad. I don't know if they got the horses for this. I like Baltimore, but watch Sean Payton if they win this game.
Denver's big time.
Yeah, they're big time, all right. When you were talking about them, Cherry, you're talking about that defense. That defense. They've had some weaker opponents, so yes, their numbers look good. They've been outstanding. I'm not hating on them, but you ain't seen nothing like Lamar Jackson and the big fellow Shaquille O'Neill. You know what I'm talking about. Dereck Henry.
Round two of mad Minute here on a Friday, but sixty seconds back on the clock, a clash between two NFC North power houses. Dan Campbell in the lines heading to Green Bay To's take on the Packers. The winner of this game will be in first place in the NFC.
North entering week ten.
Kyle, who do you see being on top of the standings after this matchup?
Someone has to at least force Jared Goff to throw a couple in completions, not interceptions, incompletions. I talked to Jerry Goff this week for the Network. It's going to air on Sunday. He hates hearing the word perfect. He's like, I'm not even close to perfect. I got to do all these other types of things. And I'm like, when you're going up to the line and you're like, ar Monro hasn't had a catch since the first quarter, Laporta has too money today. I got to get to this guy. He goes the team is not like that. I promise you, no one cares. We just go out there, we ball, we win. Green Bay is a very good team. Jared Goff is playing way too well right now for me to pick the Packers.
I think the Lion's going to Lambon win.
Well, this is going to be interesting territory for Jared Golf because this is going to be the first time this season that he's played outside of a dome. So how is he going to handle the elements? How is he going to be in that situation, especially when they say the temperature is going to be it's going to be raining down there. Let's see how he does with that adversity.
Well, you know, you talk about the elements, to see how he does with the Xavier McKenny back there. He leads the league with six interceptions. He got his six last week against the Jacksonville Jaguars. So it's going to be a good game. So that Jared Goff Xavier McKinny exchange. I'm excited to see how that thing goes down.
Just checking Akar if you're curious. The weather forecast Sunday in Green Bay is fifty degrees and rain, So maybe.
A lot of running that game. Who that's cold.
Let's talk about the next one here. We have another divisional matchup between the Dolphins and Bills. Okbark. Can the Dolphins hold off Josh Hallen, who for the most part this season has done a really good job keeping the ball protected and not turning it over.
Well.
I think this is going to be tough because we do know for since twenty seventeen the Buffalo Bills they've dominated at home against the Miami Dolphins. But the Miami Dolphins look like they're back. Tyreek Hill now starting to get back into it because they got their quarterback back. They got Tua back. I want to see that connection between Tua and Tyreek get back to that high performance dophense then they might have a chance to beat the Buffalo Bills.
Yeah, they might have a chance.
And we all saw what happened the first time these two teams met. It was a nightmare for the Miami Dolphins and we saw tool go downs.
But for me, if there's.
Anybody that's more excited to have too back as Mike McDaniel's seeing all of the little flicks and no look passes from Tua.
So it's going to be electric.
I hope that it's a great game, But we saw how the first game happened.
We know Tom Brady is an owner of the Raiders, Josh Allen is an owner of the Dolphins.
It's got a matter of opinion.
That's not me editorializing, guys, that's just the facts.
The Dolphins fans know it.
It would be refreshing and different and something new to talk about for the Dolphins to go to Buffalo and beat the Bills and beat Josh Allen. They just almost never do and I don't think they will this week either.
Next up, we had too what I can call the Kyle Brandt Bowl. We have the Bears taking on Arizona. Remember the pound puppy He lets the Cardinals are his.
Team in addition to Chicago.
But they are coming off that incredible heartbreak of that hil Mary against Washington. Maybe Iberflus is losing the locker room a little bit. It sounds like Mantai from some of the comments the players made.
But who do you give the edge? Do you think the Bears can come.
Back or the Cardinals going to take advantage of maybe an emotional Chicago team.
Well, you know, the Bears have a lot of talent on that side of the ball and on that team. However, I like the Cardinals in in this game because that team, for two weeks straight has found a way to win in very close games. It takes a lot of grit to win in the way that they won against La Chargers and last week against the Dolphins. It's going to be a good game, But I got the Cardinals.
You know, two players, or rather two people on the Bears who weren't very well known a week ago became household names this week. One of them was Tyreek Stevenson and one of them was Matt Ebraflus.
Both of them need to have huge games.
Ebraflus, by far, I think this is the biggest game of his career. I think he needs to answer a ton of questions. The team has to be disciplined, organized, focused, none of which they were at the end of the game. Lest this is actually a really big game. Sure they lose, they go to four and four, they're losing a lot more than just one game if they fall again after that debacle in Washington.
Yeah, this is it's going to be pretty interesting for Chicago, especially because they're losing.
On the road.
They're aller and three on the road this season, and you talk about the hot streak that they're on for the Arizona Cardinals winning two straight Chicago, they made a mount up.
Yeah, the Cardinals haven't won three straight since two thousand and one.
But we are going to look at our last one here. NFC West wide open.
The standings, top three teams all four and four, but the Rams three and four as they take on the Seahawks this weekend, Kylo, as we said it, it is a tight race in the NFC West. Who do you see in this matchup trying to get a leg up.
At least I know, don't let the Rams get hot. Don't do it, guys, Do not let the Rams get it. Don't let Matt Stafford get a hot hand or Sean McVay.
I love.
Now we've been hearing about Pooka all morning. We're seeing all this video of him running around again. They didn't trade Cooper Cup. They weren't gonna trade Cooper Cup. I don't care what anybody said. I liked actually the Rams in this game. I know Seattle's tough at home, at least I thought they were. I mean, Buffalo beat him by about fifty last week at home. I actually think the Rams are going to reintroduce themselves to the conversation now.
I like, la here, just.
Let me reintroduce myself. My name is yeah, Pokaua. I'm about to go somewhere else. Cooper Cup, they're back. I saved myself. I didn't get canceled. But that offense is hot right now because they've got the Dogs back at the wide receiver position and then the Seattle Seahawks defense. They're giving up thirty point four points per game. That is not acceptable against this offense.
Now, yeah, I got the Rams too, and and my my big thing is against Ryan Grubbed, offensive coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks. Listen, the quarterback shotgun run game does not work in the NFL, when you don't have a QB that poses a run threw Ryan Grubb throw that out.
I know this is your first year in the NFL. Sorry, but stop running. Stop running.
That don't work
Good Mortall
