All right, all right, here we go, all right, get to it. What's trunk?

So Josh Allen, as Steve de Seger said to us earlier, that he's gonna take the snap, so he could say that he started every game or whatever, but he might need to play in actually in order to win the MVP. And it's set up for the optics along with the stats. We already know what the stats are. We talk about him all the time now. If he doesn't play and Lamar beats up, the Browns wins the division and they were owing to to start the season, they.

Came all the way back.

Came all the way back.

Lamar had three touchdowns, rushed for one hundred and fifty yard one hundred some odd yards and star people gonna look at that and go man di Lamar.

Finished the season. Trong.

Finished the season. Trong.

Yeah, this is a real thing, am I right? I mean you and you think Josh is gonna win. I think he is gonna win. I'm not playing in this last game. I think hurts him because of This is not a meaningless game for Lamar. It's an important must have win over the Browns in order to win the division.

Yeah, this is a real thing, am I right? I mean you and you think Josh is gonna win. I think he is gonna win. I'm not playing in this last game. I think hurts him because of This is not a meaningless game for Lamar. It's an important must have win over the Browns in order to win the division.

There's something that's really on the line to play for. Now. Here's what's interesting about it. I thought about this, knowing we're gonna have this conversation, and I started to think that Josh Allen actually could hurt himself by playing in that. There's nothing to gain in that. Okay, he puts up one hundred and eighty five yards a touchdown, rushes for sixty maybe a touchdown, Ana beat New England pretty handily. Well, that's what we expected, that's what he was supposed to do. When should look better the last time he played the Patriots, he messes around and has another subpar game, messes around and has a horrible game. Messes around and let me say, has a Rod Parker extreme game. Yes, two to three interceptions, only eighty five passing yards and a fumble loss. There you go, that's a good game. R Yeah, there you go. That could mess around and hurt him in that. The last two sides, two of the last three times we saw you, you look bad, maybe look horrible, and you barely beat the Patriots. You know a couple of times. So he's in a position where if he's gonna go out there, well then he better go out there and be serious. Otherwise, to me, the only thing that he can do is actually leave a last bad last taste in him out if you will, if he plays. So, if he's going to play, which it looks like he is, yeah, I don't think he's playing though. I think Steve is just gonna kind of start, get a couple snaps and dip. Then that almost will leave it because I think that leaves the door open for Lamar. And I'm just talking about the optics, right. I get what you're saying. Lamar's game matters, he has a chance, his game has a lot on the line, and if he performs well in a game with a lot online, I get that. But I think if voters have already made up their mind or at least leaning towards it, Josh Allen can't hurt himself by not playing. I think the only thing that could happen is hurt himself. Like I said, you throw two interceptions, you fumble, and you don't just even if you win but barely against the Patriots and Lamar ball's out, three touchdowns, whether it be on the ground, passing whatever. To me, you can hurt himself. So I think Josh Allen going to take a snap or two dipping out actually won't hurt him because it'll be the last time I saw him. He won He look good, and that is that. Yeah, I don't know.

Yeah, I don't know.

I mean, here's the problem, because it's not just this game. It's the last two games against the Patriots and Jets. Right, Like, his numbers aren't great, they weren't just one hundred and ninety one yards average, right, one hundred and ninety one yards, four touchdowns and one pick.

I mean, here's the problem, because it's not just this game. It's the last two games against the Patriots and Jets. Right, Like, his numbers aren't great, they weren't just one hundred and ninety one yards average, right, one hundred and ninety one yards, four touchdowns and one pick.

This is last two games. But that's that's what I'm saying. That's all.

This is last two games. But that's that's what I'm saying. That's all.

But but here's Lamar's in the last two games Steelers and Texans, two playoff teams, six touchdowns, one interception, two hundred and forty two yards total yards per game. Like those are against way better competition. And now they play the Browns, who are bad. But this is for the division. It's a rival, it's a division game, right, and if he unloads and gets to four thousand yards, right, Rob G Mike, he could get four thousand.

It's a rival, it's a division game, right, and if he unloads and gets to four thousand yards, right, Rob G Mike, he could get four thousand.

Yeah, all forty touchdowns, and listen, the numbers aren't the narrative in the sense that I think Lamar has had the better numbers and can't be caught when it comes to the numbers, specifically with Josh Allen. There's some other people who, you know, if Joe Borrow wanted to jump in the discussion, But Josh Allen can't beat him statistically. But what he can do is have the better record. What he can do again is have that storyline of where people are just more interested in that. And I think Lamar again, I think it's Lamar's greatness has become the norm where it's normal. Like again last week.

I hear you when you say that, and it didn't stop Brett Faar from winning three m vps in a row.

I hear you when you say that, and it didn't stop Brett Faar from winning three m vps in a row.

I just I don't. I don't think that.

I just I don't. I don't think that.

I think but said that, but he already has two.

I think but said that, but he already has two.

You're making it like no, no, no, on the road like this is his first one. He already has you, so if he doesn't win, that will be a big thing that he already got two.

You're making it like no, no, no, on the road like this is his first one. He already has you, so if he doesn't win, that will be a big thing that he already got two.

No, But I'm saying, like the whole I keep hearing about voter fatigue. Even Tony Romo on Sunday was like, well, he's Josh should win.

No, But I'm saying, like the whole I keep hearing about voter fatigue. Even Tony Romo on Sunday was like, well, he's Josh should win.

He's already want to. But this is what I'm telling you. That a voter though, thank god, that's why. But you know you don't think that's a I don't.

He's already want to. But this is what I'm telling you. That a voter though, thank god, that's why. But you know you don't think that's a I don't.

I don't think by writers because and I'm just I don't Barry Bonds won seven m vps.

I don't think by writers because and I'm just I don't Barry Bonds won seven m vps.

I'm just trying to grady at like he was knowing something that was literally exception.

I'm just trying to grady at like he was knowing something that was literally exception.

No, but people didn't just go, oh, well we voted for him last year, Well he was gonna vote for him again.

No, but people didn't just go, oh, well we voted for him last year, Well he was gonna vote for him again.

Yes, he's the best player. So since you've been covering this sport since nineteen eighty seven, somebody give me a dying because you know I had to get it in for you today. I beat you to it. Yes, I've been covering this league in nineteen eighty seven. Dan, we know you telling me Michael Jordan after all those years, only walks away with five. You don't think Karl Malone and David Robinson and some of those or whatever, you know, whereas I.

Yes, he's the best player. So since you've been covering this sport since nineteen eighty seven, somebody give me a dying because you know I had to get it in for you today. I beat you to it. Yes, I've been covering this league in nineteen eighty seven. Dan, we know you telling me Michael Jordan after all those years, only walks away with five. You don't think Karl Malone and David Robinson and some of those or whatever, you know, whereas I.

Think they had exceptional years that people looked at. And I'm not saying that you're not. Michael Jordan's not gonna win it every year. Lamar's not gonna win it every year. But you can't go and have the second or third highest quarterback waiting for a single season and act like that.

Think they had exceptional years that people looked at. And I'm not saying that you're not. Michael Jordan's not gonna win it every year. Lamar's not gonna win it every year. But you can't go and have the second or third highest quarterback waiting for a single season and act like that.

Doesn't mean anything because he won already. But you gotta also and I'm not everybody.

Doesn't mean anything because he won already. But you gotta also and I'm not everybody.

Everybody who's been on that who's put up the numbers he has has won the MVP except Patrick Mahomes because Aaron Rodgers beat him out in that same year. So here's what you that's what you're bucking. Here's what you're looking at, though, Rob.

Everybody who's been on that who's put up the numbers he has has won the MVP except Patrick Mahomes because Aaron Rodgers beat him out in that same year. So here's what you that's what you're bucking. Here's what you're looking at, though, Rob.

They gave it to Lamar and they said, hey, man, the stats don't necessarily matter. Look at the impact. Look at the team. He lost all those running backs last year. He was doing it solo. They didn't have a dere came and they gave it to him, right, and they said, look at the record, look at the seeding, not the stats. They're gonna use the same logic against it this year with Josh Allen. They're gonna say, Josh has similar, not as good, but similar stats. He's on a team that we didn't have similar stats of what Lamar similar?

No, no, not one is a quarterback rating of one twenty one the other guys one hundred.

No, no, not one is a quarterback rating of one twenty one the other guys one hundred.

Right, and they're both gonna count for forty years touchdowns. Yeah, but that's not because one guy's gonna have like thirteen fourteen rush.

Right, and they're both gonna count for forty years touchdowns. Yeah, but that's not because one guy's gonna have like thirteen fourteen rush.

It's not the same like like like Josh Allen is like eleventh or twelfth quarterback were that's not the guy who's number.

It's not the same like like like Josh Allen is like eleventh or twelfth quarterback were that's not the guy who's number.

What I'm saying twenty point anybody with like fourteen thirteen were the rushing touchdowns. That's crazy. And also in you know, have twenty something plus passing, so they're gonna have similar Again, here's the thing that nobody's talked about. Nobody.

Oh yeah, Like there's three games that he cost them.

Oh yeah, Like there's three games that he cost them.

One of the best ever.

One of the best ever.

But you could say, oh, well, Lamar's record against the Steelers. He missed like two or three kicks. Like go back to that game that they just lost. There's three games on their schedule that Tucker missed crucial field goals.

But you could say, oh, well, Lamar's record against the Steelers. He missed like two or three kicks. Like go back to that game that they just lost. There's three games on their schedule that Tucker missed crucial field goals.

Not eighty yard field goals. You know what I'm talking. He had they for a minute, he had the years, He had the yps for a minute without a doubt. But at the end of the day, and that's a bad thing about being a quarterback. You get all the love and you get all the praise if things go wrong. But again, I just think I think the story has been written for Josh Allen. I think you're.

Gonna be way off on this and it won't even be close. I really, really, I'm convinced because the other guy who will get the votes will they course, and Josh Allen will be third.

They don't know, did they sure did? He cost two games for sure. But you know about what he's doing throwing the football, and he doesn't have to do what he had to do in the previous years to run the football because you got Derrick Henry. But his position, his position of throwing the ball, not turning the ball over. I know everybody wants to get to give it to Josh Allen. Josh Allen, before this weekend, had twenty six touchdowns and six interceptions. Twenty six throwing. So in the previous years, we always rank quarterbacks on passing percentage, YEP, touchdowns, interceptions, right, I mean, if that's the case, Lamar had thirty nine going into the weekend and only threw four interceptions, and those four interceptions were like crazy, like flukes.

First rot Yeah, the.

Fourth one was he was throwing it to one of the receivers crossing the field and he stopped. He threw it and went right into the hands of one of the DB's for the Steelers. But nevertheless, he should be the m v P. It shouldn't even be a question. He should be the m v P if you want to give Joe Burrow, because I think he should be an argument. But the team is not that good.

Listen, he's playing lights on football. Just the team is not now. They are, they're hot right now, and if they beat the students, they need some help to get into the postseason. And I don't think anybody in the league wants the Cincinnati Bengals to get into the postseason.

He is Rob Woodson. Our guests, all right, what will be the bigger travesty, Lamar Jackson losing the m v P this year or Eli Manning becoming a first ballot Hall of Fame.

That's not even a question. This is my question. This is my question to both of you guys.

That's not even a question. This is my question. This is my question to both of you guys.

Okay, So when you're a player, are you.

Okay, So when you're a player, are you.

A Hall of Famer because you have longevity and you you you kind of stacked the numbers because you start, or a Hall of Famer because you're one of the best players in the history of the game and you're one of the best players at your position each and every year for the vast majority of your career. He was never thank you.

Never did they line up and say, we got to worry about Eli. Was worry about Barber.

But Rod, here here's the thing, seriously, oh, here you go. Eli Manning is going to get in. You already see where he's progressing. Yes, he's going to Okay, and he is. Rod, have you at least do you accept that or you don't think he's still going to make it, because I think he's going to make No, no, no.

But Rod, here here's the thing, seriously, oh, here you go. Eli Manning is going to get in. You already see where he's progressing. Yes, he's going to Okay, and he is.

No, no, it's not it's irrelevant. What I think is get in or not, because more than likely he's going to get in.

Okay, Okay, okay, But here's my thing.

Okay, Okay, okay, But here's my thing.

This is what I'm saying. The Hall of Fame has dwindled itself from the players who have gone in the last couple of years who used to be the best of the best of the best.

This is what I'm saying. The Hall of Fame has dwindled itself from the players who have gone in the last couple of years who used to be the best of the best of the best.

I agree with that now.

I agree with that now.

I agree with your statement because it's happening in all of the Hall of Fames. We've seen like Trace McGrady, who did you know what I mean, like a lot of players in baseball. They put Scott Rowland, who was a really good player for the Phillies and the Cardinals, but he wasn't one of the best players who ever played baseball.

I mean, so I see that.

I mean, so I see that.

Here's the case for Eli and why I believe he belongs in the Hall of Fame. He's tenth at all time and touchdown passes right, eleventh all time in passing yards. Okay, so he played, I get it, But you just because you play a long time doesn't mean that you get And then he beat that seventeen and old eighteen and old Patriots team, and he beat Tom Brady and the Patriots twice.

Here's the case for Eli and why I believe he belongs in the Hall of Fame. He's tenth at all time and touchdown passes right, eleventh all time in passing yards. Okay, so he played, I get it, But you just because you play a long time doesn't mean that you get And then he beat that seventeen and old eighteen and old Patriots team, and he beat Tom Brady and the Patriots twice.

If he was so good. They went to the Super Bowl and their teams were nine and seven both times.

If he was so good. They went to the Super Bowl and their teams were nine and seven both times.

That's why I tell you this dude's record, he's mid. I tell him the envy mid. He is the envy mad. That's what he is, the middle of this thing.

That's why I tell you this dude's record, he's mid. I tell him the envy mid. He is the envy mad. That's what he is, the middle of this thing.

Look, he's going to get in because of the last name, and everybody's pushing it. I mean, the Manning boys are the face of the NFL right now, and every commercial do everything for them there, and all the sports booking there there and everything. He's going to get in. I get it. I'm saying he's not worthy to get in, just and I don't normally say this. I don't. I normally keep all my opinions to myself, but this one is, he's never all So if you never all pro and you just stats over over the course of time, now you're one of the best ever, even though you want one of the best when you play.

But I hear you, but you never all Star. Also, I get your case.

But I hear you, but you never all Star. Also, I get your case.

I do, I really do, because when I vote for the baseball I'm a Baseball Hall of Fame voter, and and people talk about all the time with stats and all these other things. And if you don't win, like an m VP or Rookie of the Year and all that kind of s to froud, you know what I mean, It's hard for you to get a vote, right because that means you were the best player at some point during your career. The only thing that makes ELI different is every every quarterback except for Plunket, Jim Plunkett, who's one who's won two Super Bowls and has two m vps, all in the Hall of Fame, like all of them like that.

That's that's the projecting based off You're like a law degree of president.

That's that's the projecting based off You're like a law degree of president.

So so so you're saying just because they messed up in the past, and you're saying, hey, they messed up and put some guys in the they they're not long, so let's just keep messing up and keep some more guys in it.

So so so you're saying just because they messed up in the past, and you're saying, hey, they messed up and put some guys in the they they're not long, so let's just keep messing up and keep some more guys in it.

All right, Well, I don't think you're ever gonna solve this. We won't solve it. But I'm with you. Are you never the best? No defense ever worried about you, but you're a Hall of Famer. That makes no sense to me.

All right, Well, I don't think you're ever gonna solve this. We won't solve it. But I'm with you. Are you never the best? No defense ever worried about you, but you're a Hall of Famer. That makes no sense to me.

Rod, Where are you on the Saquon? I mean, obviously the Eagles have nothing to play for. He has, He's one hundred and one yards away, you know, I mean, do you put the I got.

Rod, Where are you on the Saquon? I mean, obviously the Eagles have nothing to play for. He has, He's one hundred and one yards away, you know, I mean, do you put the I got.

Much respect for mister Barkley, I really do. And more likely if they playing, he'll break Edie's records. But he's not breaking Edie's record because he's doing it in seventeen games and Edi did it in sixteen games. So I just think you have to be real careful when we start breaking records when when more games are played, that counts towards your two numbers in previous years. So listen, I think they should Edie should have the record for the sixteen games, and if my man breaks his record, and he should have the record for session.

Much respect for mister Barkley, I really do. And more likely if they playing, he'll break Edie's records.

So listen, I think they should Edie should have the record for the sixteen games, and if my man breaks his record, and he should have the record for session.

So O Jay should still have the record for fourteen games, correct, Yeah, under your okay?

So O Jay should still have the record for fourteen games, correct, Yeah, under your okay?

So you would look at it as the amount of games you play.

So you would look at it as the amount of games you play.

Yeah, because it's unfair because in his sixteen games that he played the same as d he didn't break the record.

Yeah, because it's unfair because in his sixteen games that he played the same as d he didn't break the record.

Right, and we would have had to break it to We totally get your point. We talked about that earlier. They only issued I have with that is it just gets weird in all sports. So Lebron is the all time leading scorer, but he had a luxury having three. We had no three for a first half of his career. So it gets weird in all sports if you really start to dissect it, you know what I mean, And.

Right, and we would have had to break it to We totally get your point. We talked about that earlier. They only issued I have with that is it just gets weird in all sports.

So it gets weird in all sports if you really start to dissect it, you know what I mean, And.

So it does. It does. I'm just saying, let's let's keep everything with a caveat yeah, right, context, respect, respect the players and what they're doing in the day's game, but also respect the players, and don't say he's a leading rusher. But you got to always say it with a asterisk because I just think he do, because you can't say he's a leading rusher, and he will be if he plays, right, But he played seventeen games. You think he's going to play sixteen?

So it does. It does. I'm just saying, let's let's keep everything with a caveat yeah, right, context, respect, respect the players and what they're doing in the day's game, but also respect the players, and don't say he's a leading rusher.

You think he's going to play sixteen?

You think he's going to play or not? Like I give him think.

You think he's going to play or not? Like I give him think.

I think I think they're playing because I think everybody's about records nowadays. Everything everybody's about breaking something, getting something done for themselves, not for the betterment of their football team. For the better of the football team. You might not want to play, but I'm I'm okay. We're planning for a quarter to keep those juices going and all that and to get ready for the wildcard weekend. I'm good with that. But to you know, if he played the whole game, I would be a little concerned just in case the injury factors. But I don't think they're gonna setting for the whole game. I think they'd get my oppornit least for a quarter or a half to try to break the record.

I think he gets a half and the other thing real quick, like Josh Allen is going to just take a first snap so that he can continue his iron man iron man straight.

I mean, but everybody has learned how to get around the record books, right, and that's that's a little it's a little disconcerting. But if you're a real sports guy, you know that that's not how you do it.

Keep thirteen six if that holds, and we'll keep you updated on that. Steve de Seger coming up in just a little bit as well. I was thinking about this, Rob everybody's starting Michael Parsons, which I mean, I'm starting to feel like, is Joe Burrow on his Is he on the payroll for Joe Burrows? Because Michael Parson is sinking his praise is like crazy on his podcast and whatnot. And there's a handful of people we're saying, hey, Joe Burrow is the MVP. Joe Burrow is not the end. Well that's my thing. He's not the MVP because while he's having an amazing season, and he's throwing amazing yards, and he's leading the league, and you know so many statistics, when did we start giving passes the quarterbacks who teams were underperforming? Historically that's never been the case. Like you got Aaron Rodgers winning because his team's thirteen and three and twelve and four, and Peyton Manning and Brett Farve, you named some of those guys, and Tom Brady, when did we start giving passes? Me? Oh man of defense, Peyton Manning has some teams where we all went man, if this coast defense ever got good. This this coast defense ever got good, and that's what happened. They eventually got good and they ended up winning the Super Bowl. Who has a higher quarterback rating? Joe Burrow or Jared goff I'll wait, I'm gonna go Jered Goffins out the way you said it. I'm just saying. But but so when people say that joke because Borrow is the MVP, no he's not. He is having an amazing season as good as he's he's played really well, but he's not. He's not only because to me, I can't want you gotta find ways to win games, and that's literally what the MVP is. I know his defense isn't great, without a doubt, but Lamar Jackson's defense wasn't great the first half of the season, and his kicking was and he found a way to be sitting here at what eleven and five? You know there are Josh Allen's defense, mean the Lions put forty on their heads, forty forty two points. You're like, there are teams quarterbacks who've had bad defenses, are no running game or no special teams. You're telling me this person's MVP. Then you're supposed to be elevating them in spite of you know who, team wasn't great and can't score a lot and all that. At times, well, you know what, Patrick Mahoons finds ways to win. You know, throughout his career. We want the defense. Remember the defense wasn't great for the Chiefs those first half of his career. If you recall Patrick Mahomes, he was winning a bunch of games because he knew, all right, I'm gona have to score early and late, or I'm gonna have to I can't get field goals. Whatever it is, to me, Joe Burrow is absolutely deserving of a lot of flowers this year. He's playing out of his mind. But to me, the idea that he just would surpass Josh All and Lamar Jackson, Sakwan Barkley, Patrick Mahomes, or even Jared Goff, maybe even Sam Donald, It's like, man, these guys are finding ways to win in spite of everything. Jared Goff's defense is losing everybody, and they're finding ways to win. Am I wrong? They're finding ways to win. And so Joe Burrow is not a knocking him as much as do MVP is. Historically, they don't get it passed just because of something isn't perfect. The scenario isn't perfect.
