All right ladies and gentlemen I your host Chris kotw and we are live from the 336 one CE again for episode 179 of the 815 exchange well well well well listen if you are a football fan it is a great time and listen we got a lot
Of football to talk about of course today is the national championship so I have to pre that for preview that for you but also you already know you already know what we kicking this off with what happened last week last month oh you already know so we going to talk
About that of course we have some call college basketball some NBA World Juniors and of course it is NFL last week this season week 18 so we going to be talking about that in the main event but as always remember to like share and subscribe if you guys enjoying the
Content and as always everything you’re looking for in this life can be found in the description below time stamps are embedded in the video and also provided in the description below social media links if you want to follow me there also found there but listen y’all y’all know what time it is
I’ve been waiting on this I oh almost I almost came and did what I said I was going to do last week but I have been waiting on this of course we are kicking off with college football as we have so many times throughout the history of
This podcast but boy oh boy oh boy Michigan and Alabama in the Rose Bowl and and I want I want to hear it I want to hear I want all y’all that were talking crazy a what a month and a almost a half ago right a month and some
Change a couple episodes ago when we were talking about when the cfp committee you know made their final four and they took the four best teams where you at where SEC fans where you at Alabama fans where are you at that were all in my Tik Tok where are
You I would like to have the conversation that we don’t want to have right now cuz what happened what happened what did I say what did I say fourth best team in the country yeah so we have the Rose Bowl of course kicks us off Monday 5 o’clock came out a
Little bit before the podcast came out and Michigan took care of business in a great because the Rose Ball always delivers by the way took care of business in a great game 27 to 20 and beat the Crimson Tide after one of a a I don’t know if it was milro I
Don’t know if it was Ree this play call I don’t know if it was the offensive line for Alabama that was horrid the entire game I don’t know who it was or who we need to put the blame on him if it was just everybody right but an awful
Game on the line I get I understand going with I would have done the same thing you put the hands listen M I have a basically a running back back there all right 63 to whatever milro is all right built like a tank great a fantastic Runner goal line
Situation I’m putting the ball in his hands oneon-one try to you know get us to that double overtime I’m doing it too but I’m not running him right up the middle when my offensive line has been getting busted in the mouth the entire the entire game but that’s what they did and and
Then the blocking failed and milro doesn’t even make it to like the two or the I think got stopped at like almost to five almost all right I think he get stopped at the four uh and Michigan celebrates waves Alabama go goodbye and yeah like I said my only question is uh
What do you have to say to you what do you have to say about yourselves Alabama what do you have to say about yourselves right what what did Alabama do in this game that was so revolutionary I I told y’all what it was the entire year even when Alabama was up I told
Y’all so I’m very much so confused on the committee’s reasoning for putting them in this game despite it being a very good game and the fact that they maybe even should have won this game what did they do that was so revolutionary that made them Alabama cuz
That’s why they got in right it’s because they were Alabama what was Alabama about this performance right they weren’t dominant offensively Michigan really was giving them the game off of a lot of mistakes I mean a very slot special teams was awful nobody could catch a punt on Monday
Nobody I mean in certainly nobody from Michigan we’ll talk about what happened in the Sugar Bowl but a lot of mistakes from Michigan kept Alabama in this game the offense wasn’t revolutionary jayen milro wasn’t Cam Newton V2 which is what we were told the defense was good like I
Said though a lot of mistakes some of though got to give credit to the defense like I said the front seven did bits but this wasn’t Death Star Alabama that’s what y’all that’s what the committee that’s what y’all promised right the SEC the Unstoppable the Unstoppable Alabama right that’s what
They were supposed to be that’s why they got in where were they they weren’t at the Rose Bowl and they certainly weren’t there on that last play and they didn’t really look at they didn’t really look like death star Alabama when they were winning I mean the Alabama offensive
Line let’s talk about it been horrible All Year Seth mlin is now transferred to Ohio State but boy oh boy did he have a nightmare I mean he couldn’t snap the ball to save his life it looked like it was his first game snapping the ball JC lantham five-star offensive tackle got
Blown up on that last play part of the re I mean he’s the who’s who melro tripped over really the defender even though you know made the play but uh a lot of that was mro tripping over his own right tackle that somehow got blasted five yards off on a goal line
Play milro was sacked not one not two not three not four not five but six times in this game was fighting for his life I mean it’s no wonder he only threw for what 116 yards which by the way funny enough in that you know Florida State you know Slaughter scrimmage
Whatever you want to call it it was barely a game if we’re calling it that since they barely had anybody of any substance play I mean they were basically practicing it was a spring game it was a spring game roster versus Georgia going you know all
In and still funny enough in that game that was so lopsided historically lopsided Brock Glenn still threw for more yards than Jaylen milro had in this game ain’t that something so yeah milro Fighting For His Life Run game was the only thing really going for him um no
Real surprises will Johnson is that guy that secondary from Michigan is the truth and Jermaine Burton was an Alcatraz okay so so nothing was really going there uh Run game Jay mlen looked great I mean Roy Williams has now entered the transfer portal but Jay looked great all right honestly they
Should have hand gave him the ball more though they started to figure him out a little bit more in that second half after he broke it open I mean which was nearly a free TouchDown for Michigan like I said nobody could catch a punt jaay made him pay jaay had 87 yards and
Two touchdowns he was that guy offensively for Alabama which is what I’ve been saying all year is that they need to run the ball more what do I know what do I know but mlen really their only source of offense in this game the defense like I said was very very solid
Caleb DS is in NFL safety as I’ve said all year all right he’s a special special player probably the best player on that secondary even as a freshman as a 19yearold or whatever Caleb is he is that guy nearly kicked us off with an interception cuz JJ I mean made a
Horrific decision by the way McCarthy did end it up with 246 and three touchdowns so crit credit do all right credit credits do of course though if we’re talking about anybody from Michigan offensively we have to talk about the man himself the legend the greatest running back in Michigan
Wolverine history Blake corm had 118 yards 83 yards rushing in a touchdown and of course that was the winner in overtime or at least the goahead he also had three receptions 25 yards he was that guy all right Blake was that guy as expected he is the focal point I mean it
Is incredible he never Falls like backward never really you rarely see him lose yards even on those one to two he always is falling forward right for someone that is uh smaller quote unquote in stature he is very strong he is a very strong Runner a very powerful
Runner um and yeah corm shut off I mean those cuts on that touchdown if you see it running back from like the Field view from that like wide angle I mean it’s just gorgeous all right you need to send that to every tailback you know in terms
Of this is how you make a cut this is how you jump cut cuz corm was absolutely clinical all right he was absolutely clinical in that Roman Wilson felt like he had four receptions 73 yards and a touchdown which is what his stats were all on that last possession he came
Through very very very clutch um late in the fourth quarter McGregor ended up with two sacks and like I said will Johnson was that guy with the straps as he has been all year but yeah I listen what did Alabama do that a Jordan Travis
L right I mean what what what did they do in this game Florida State also has a really good defense it wouldn’t be shocking for them to have held Michigan to 27 points offensively Alabama really didn’t do anything so I’m struggling to see what uh Florida State without Jordan
Travis you know they they couldn’t put up 20 points with Keon Coleman Johnny like come on now what did Alabama do that that was so groundbreaking in this game I mean they took it to Ott credit records du but I think that’s more of an inflection of Michigan struggling in
This game which I’ll talk about in my national championship preview but yeah Michigan wins the Rose Bowl it was a great game um and yeah we’ll see what happens I think B’s going to be better next year but this year did they really deserve to be in the playoff
They did they really I mean were you impressed I wasn’t impressed I was impressed however um by well I guess I was right about this to I I’m just going to stroke my own ego in this podcast I you know episode 179 I should just name it Chris’s ego because
This is what this is about right Washington Texas was another phenomenal game was the game I said I was more intrigued by honestly and it ended up delivering because Texas somehow some way right Washington gets the ball off an onside kick by the way with 1 minute and 6 seconds to go
For all intents and purposes with the offense Washington has the game should have been over they somehow managed to only waste 21 seconds of game time give the ball back to Texas who drive down the field and really had a a fantastic chance to win this game but
Then I don’t know what Sark was doing I mean he’s usually phenomenal he’s been great all year he threw up the the four worst plays he could possibly Ki that screen to start us off on first down I no business wasted a bunch of time and got a half
Yard I mean just garbage threw up the the worst credit were credits due to the DB for making that play by the way on ad though you know to win the game but still four of the absolute worst plays you could have ran in that situation it was honestly mindboggling Texas threw a
Little bit there but Washington did deserve the win they got the win 37 to 31 they survive Michael pennick was Michael penck 430 and two touchdowns Dylan Johnson had two TDS before his injury Roma do it listen how many times have we talked about Roma on this channel how many times countless
Countless times all right there’s a big three receivers in this draft of course Marv Malik neighbors who declared the other day and Roman dudes at you can kind of miss you can throw Malik and Rome however her what order I’m G say Rome above Malik and my opinion no
Offense to LSU fans I do have some good news for you a little bit later on in the podcast of course with Bryce Underwood but nonetheless Roman is that guy all right six receptions 125 Texas could hold him Jaylen P could get hold list five 122 and touchdown for
Pul the other third the third head of the monster uh McMillan five receptions 58 yards a touchdown it was that type of day it was that type of day that Washington offense is different gravy brayen sh by the way had five tackles two sacks three tfls e was had 318 you
Know he had 318 won a bad game from him uh spread the ball out well like I said Washington controlled this game from the start though and that I mean that’s a hard team Washington is a very very hard team to try to come back against because
That offense is so Dynamic and they waste so little time and it just feels like they can score at will sometimes it is very hard to come from behind and try to beat this team Texas nearly did it you can argue that they should have but it wasn’t enough Washington gets it done
Pinck that offensive line that offense to explosive and they head to the National Championship where they will be facing Michigan as we know today I I apparently Michigan are the favorites I’m going to go out on a Lim and I’mma say I’m going to be different but not just for the sake of
Being different I think Washington is going to win the national championship I have listen I would prefer Michigan as a USC fan I prefer Michigan to win but Michigan has this tendency to start slow in some of these big games we’ve seen it versus we’ve seen it versus OSU
We’ve seen it versus Alabama you know last week they cannot just like I just was talking about with Texas and Washington one of the things that did Texas and you cannot start this game slow vers Washington as good as that defense is and trust me Rome versus will Johnson
For me is like the rock and stone cold in the early 2000s I’ve been watching a bunch of retro uh WrestleMania recently too all right that’s that type of match up for me I can’t wait as a receo woo I’m looking forward to Rome vers will or
Will versus whoever they thr at him all right Sandro versus PK whatever it is cuz that’s going to be music to my ears but still nonetheless with Dylan Johnson by the way being active we’ll see how health he is in this game you cannot play from behind and make the same
Mistakes you did against Alabama against Washington because they will make you pay they have playmaker chis Galore and they have the best offensive line in the country the Joe Moore Award winners pinnick is going to get I mean as good as your pass rush is as good as McGregor
Is if pinnick gets time to dot it around he will cuz somebody’s going to get open and Lord knows he can deliver it this is a dangerous game for Michigan it’s a dangerous game for Washington but man because Michigan has that tendency I think Washington wins the national
Championship of course we’ll see what happens I would prefer Michigan to win I would prefer hard ball to get the win and for me to not have to deal with Michael bennick is the best quarterback in the draft in Washington oh they won the Pack 12 F USC I would prefer that of
Course but if I was a betting man maybe I am I got Washington not to say Michigan like I said they got to they got to have a strong start you got to St they got to control this game which they can with the running backs that they have of
Course Blake John listen control this game control the tempo of this game don’t give up the big play or try to contain the big play as much as you can Will Johnson has to have a great game that pass rush has to get going all right this the ultimate test best
Offensive line you got to go all right they cannot around and make a bunch of mistakes and hope to fight it back against the worst team like they did against B that’s not going to work against Washington so the start of this game I think is going to dictate a lot
Of course I think it’s going to you know all four quarters are important but the way these teams start this game and even coming out of half time how they start that is going to decide a lot about how this game goes so yeah very excited this
Is the Natty that I wanted so yeah Michigan Washington all good I was going to leave this into the Roundup but we’re talking about college football segment’s almost done why not LSU I did say I was going to give you good news the number one player and number one quarterback in
The class the junior class well I guess it’s about to be the senior class but the class 2025 Bryce Underwood does commit so Michigan here’s one L for today potentially of maybe two l’s you know one the one tonight might be a little little bit worse than this one
But uh yeah LSU does manage to get Bryce Underwood it’s where a lot of us you know at the end really kind of thought he was going but yeah huge all right LSU man burrow has done wonders wonders for the quarterback position at LSU man and just kind of the perception and players
Wanting to go there so yeah shout out to that team that 2019 LSU team greatest team of all time in my opinion but yeah Michigan Washington Bryce Underwood we going to see we going to see see you next week for that all right now going to the other side of the college game
College basketball we’re talking about the because listen all right no disrespect we are going to talk about the guys oh we going to talk about we G to talk about specifically one guy game spoiler there but we talk about the ladies you know what it is it’s where
All the stars are all right no offense to the guys game but you know it’s where it’s where it is it’s where they got the juice right now I said it before they got the juice right now so this is where we at all right VTEC and C State huge
Game all right huge game especially in the ACC VTech of course the reigning defending Undisputed ACC champions of the world let of course spy one of the best players in the country and 336 Legend Elizabeth kitley taking on NC State who are the number three team in the country they’ve
Been the surprise team this year undefeated so far headed into VTEC would NC State prove that hey this is our conference now or could VC pulled on to the crown and well it came down to the last shot but ladies and gentlemen Liz kitley is in fact Liz kley she had
27 and 12 but there was no shot she made in that game more important than that put back that won the game at the buzzer for Virginia Tech that game lived up to the hype all right simply put it lived up to the hype Lizzy lived up to the
Hype as she always does and yeah it was very very good game VTE gets to win like I said remains Queens all right they remain queens of the ACC uh of course everybody wants to know what did Georgia raore do as listen is she G all right G
Is G she’s one of them ones she didn’t have a great shooting game okay she went 9 for 24 I think three from 11 from three but she still had 21 and seven so solid contribution you want her to be a little bit more efficient though so
You’ll take it but you know you want that efficiency to be a little bit better uh Madison Hayes FY State hat 21 wanted to give her that um and yeah like I said came down to the last shot no shame of that they’ll run it back um a
Little bit later on in the season and potentially in the ACC Championship so won’t be the last time but for now VTech remain Queens Caitlin Clark is the best college basketball player in the country all right pound-for-pound man or woman she is the best okay she’s the best if you
Didn’t know this week was a very very high inclination of this is very clearly the best player in the country to start off the week I against Michigan State a little bit of a trap game at home she had a gamewinner which you may have saw about 15,000 times I know I
Definitely did and I wasn’t complaining 15,000 times you saw her take that logo three step back jumbo Cash Money one of the sweetest switches I’ve ever heard in my life to beat Michigan State and have the 40 piece oh and then she followed it up yesterday by
Oh no Saturday excuse me by dropping a triple double that moved her into second place alone only you know behind the great Sabrina inq from Oregon a couple years ago might know who she is the best player in the country ladies and gentlemen a triple double and a 40 piece
Gamewinner it’s the kayn Clark experience I really surprised at this point but of course what I wanted to talk about in this you know college basketball segment of course it’s about my alma we took on FAU unfortunately it was during break so no I mean there were
Some students there but we didn’t get the full effect that we normally would have but hey we took on the best team in the American Conference the AAC Champions one of the best teams in the country um though they’re about to fall after losing the ice FAU they’ve run the show recently all
Right John L Mort listen John L had 20 Boyd had 19 Vlad was vad but still another game that came down to the wire and we sent liuk Kai P My Guy liuk Kai Patterson to the free throw line and now lukai he ain’t the best freed Thro
Shooter he’s not we’ll admit he ain’t the best Freo shooter but when he had a make him I was so proud my boy liuk Kai my boy Lou came through hit both of them 768 fa can’t get it off we win roll ners that’s all I
Got to say all right Ro Niners first top 10 win since 2010 against Temple I was a static it was electric never been so happy roll ners entertainment and honestly entertainment is like uh I’m not going to lie to you it’s going to be like a minute all right
Reacher season 2 episode 6 another very good episode Reacher probably the best show in tell I haven’t watched what if yet and I know echo’s about to come out so give me Grace I do want to see season 2 of of what if right now I don’t have
My D+ subscription I inactivate it all right cuz I’m a you know post College y’all know how it gets all right if you know you know had to make some sacrifices all right D+ was one of those of course there’s you know other websites where I can watch it Disney you
Didn’t hear that but Reacher has been holding it down all right and uh detective Russo was also holding it down rest in peace to a real one he went down swinging all he went down like a g protecting Burns’s daughter um that’s kind of what this entire he was giving
Death flags all right he was giving death Flags but he went out like a g um in this episode at the end we’re not protecting like I said Burns’s daughter they almost got langsten but it all just kind of crumbled because they were following uh Russo but yeah very Russo
Centric episode but I think it was fitting for the storyline and of course you knew somebody was going to die because you have to have some gravit some gravity to the actions that are going on it just can’t be Reacher’s team you know slaughtering through everybody
On their way to the goal has to be some emotional impact for the for the viewer and Russo of course was that guy he was the guy to uh to unfortunately bear that so still very good episode I’m heavily invested I want to see what happens next
With am and langstrom so we will see but yeah Reacher deserves the hype that it is currently getting what if like I said is out haven’t you know seen it yet I’ve heard some solid things so very interested to see about that and of course Ekko which looks dope the fight
Scenes look crazy um I Heard Daredevils in it so uh yeah I’d like that poster by the way with the sign language that was brilliant marketing shout out to uh Disney on that part shout out to Marvel even though you know they get a lot of
Flack recently but you know shout out to them for that they held it down there did a very good job there but yeah hadn’t seen that but we’ll get around to it but that’s like I said was entertainment which of course brings us it brings us to the main events which
Couldn’t be anything else besides the NFL week 18 playoff spots on the line some of your teams may have been in and resling starters like in the first game which we’ll talk about very briefly or you know whatever you know you were fighting for your life it’s that type of
Week it’s the last week of the season so let’s talk about that and preview the playoffs in the Wild Card shall we like I said first game of the week Ravens weren’t playing nobody crazy all right Lamar sitting out a lot of the Stars if
You had any type of if you had a Nick all right if you had a paper cut you were sitting out this game for the Ravens which opened up the door for the Steelers to creep their way into the playoffs cuz Mike Tomlin if he’s going
To do nothing else if Mr Mike Tom one of the greatest head coaches of all time if he ain’t going to do nothing else he’s going to one have a very solid Defense number two he’s going to have over a 500 record number three he G to find a way to seep
Into the playoffs oh he GNA find a way this Steelers team is not a very good team but boy oh boy or boy they made it all right they win here against the Ravens find a way to get it done on the road um you know na Harris credit where credits
Du he had 112 deont Johnson played a good game pickings made plays where it need to happen like I said Ravens weren’t really playing anybody they played Huntley in this game he was okay but like I said man the Steelers had to get it done time they gets it done they
Make the playoffs of course the bigger game was the game after that Texans Colts Winner Takes basically Winner Takes all right you win you in you lose you snooze as they say and uh the baby goat who’s on the on the Telly right now because I got uh Pat
Mfei show up right now and CJ Stout is there well how about baby go right here CJ Stout is in fact that guy we said it all year 20 for 26 264 and two touchdowns for I don’t know he still may end up getting Rookie of the Year at least in
The AFC um I know puka has pretty much got that held down in the NFC for sure but uh yeah CJ missed those weeks so I don’t know you know that’s going to go but he is welld deserving a rookie of the year cuz boy oh boy of course credit
Where credit is due to my coach of the year to Ryan and what he’s done for this Texans team which cannot be understated I mean cannot be understated what he has done and the impact he’s had on this team even more so than Stout but credit or credit D because
Nobody thought the Texans were going to be 10 and seven and stra was a big piece of that Nico Collins I don’t know how they developed the Rapport like they have but boy oh boy our Texans fans happy that it did 9 195 and a touchdown
For Nico the Colts could not hold him he was Unstoppable all right he’s going to be in Colts DBS nightmares for a very very long time after this game cuz yes mchu I mean didn’t do enough I don’t know how and listen I do not want to rag
On Tyler Goodson in this game the the way that you know I see a lot of people are but I’mma just say with the game on the line you got to have your fourth and two you got to get the ball in your best players hands as much as I faulted and I
Was making fun of Alabama earlier in the you know episode for you know the the play call with milroe the idea was right put the ball in Milo’s hands get it in the Box you got to put the ball somehow someway find the most efficient way to
Get the ball in Jonathan Taylor who had 188 yards and a touchdown in this game you got to find a way to get your star player the ball with the game on the line your season on the line you got to find a way to get him the ball and tell
Him get those two yards we going to do what we do just go get those two yards taking him out putting godson in after he’s played what five snaps all game and it wasn’t even really a good throw from muu but still Goodson’s supposed to make that play he
Doesn’t and that’s it that’s all she wrote but you got to get that in JT’s hands in my opinion even if it’s the scream pass to JT you got to do that you have to get it into your star play when it matters you have to you got to
Let your stars be Stars Colts did not do that and now they pay the consequences Texans get it done credit where credits due they win the AFC South oh boy I I I am in Euphoria after this one in Euphoria words is in there how about them
Cowboys y’all was wor oh we go we going to get on the Eagles oh yes we’re going to get to the Eagles the Giants don’t you worry but with the NFC east on the line all we had to do was get the W against the Washington commanders and
Listen they gave a hell of a fight for the first quarter in a minute in this game they gave a hell of a fight or really the first quarter and I’ll give them half of the second quarter hell of a fight credit credits too they broke Aubrey streak right they got the block
Field goal which set them up for the TD and then Aubrey end up missing one which you know sucks for butter but I just need him back in you know shape for the playoffs but after that oh it was over it was over all right it was over okay
After that Tony PA touchdown it was done all right the Cowboys smoked the commanders 38 to10 in glorious fashion and claimed the NFC East once again Dak Prescott had 279 and four touchdowns a nice getback game for him Pard he needed to see The End Zone after all the
Slander recently 70 yards on a touchdown good stuff from Pard uh cidd lamb All Pro if there was a a bitof for receivers and Tyreek Hill didn’t knew what Tyreek Hill did I would argue cidd lamb should get it 13 targets 13 receptions 98 yards and two touchdown CD
Fan see listen him and M getting him and Micah in the first round has to be one of the greatest first rounds for one team ever like off multiple draft picks I think I’ve said this before on here but has to be and I’m not just saying
That as like a homer Cowboys fan but objectively we got one of the best defensive players in the league and one of the best receivers in the league in the same round like it wasn’t like we had one and two we had like what five and like 14 maybe lower than that for
CD gorgeous gorgeous but cdz he has been all year was a monster um like I said Dak paed out uh Dante Fowler had one and a half sacks in this game Mah also got a sack to bring his season total to a resounding 14 he joins
Reggie White as the only two players in NFL history to start off their career with 13 and more sacks in their first three seasons so you’d love to see that CD bald out like I said Dak Bal out um somehow was a turnover machine and Glory was bestowed upon the Cowboys how about
Them a pitiful I mean listen no disrespect but I mean listen they didn’t go 0 and 17 or 0 and 16 right but man this had to feel like one of the worst seasons of all time it especially from like and I know Carolina Panthers fans I’m from obviously North Carolina live in
Charlotte you know quite a bit I would know and I know some of the you know in and work into the organization so I know but this has to feel like one of the worst this feels like one of the worst seasons of all time I’m not going to lie
To you and it couldn’t have ended any more fitting beside David terer and brow in a scandal after he threw a drink at a fan and had to pay 300K as compensation for that and then they proceeded to lose N9 nothing at home to basically gift WP the division
Like I said that nobody wanted to win even the Buccaneers put up nine points against the Panthers nobody wanted to win this division but somebody had to have it and the Buccaneers you know what they deserve it they get a done they finished 9 and eight and somehow win the worst
Conference I excuse me not the worst conference the worst division in football um just pitiful shout out to Chason mcclaflin for you know winning MVP in this game three for three on field goals and that’s pretty much all she wrote Bryce finished under 100 yards passing this was a nightmare game okay
This was not a good game it was a horrific game I have nothing good to say about the Panthers this year nothing right you got the number one pick don’t even have it you just it nothing looks good right now now all right Panthers are just in
Pain and misery please somebody fix this team as someone that lives in NC I would love for the Panthers to be good again and for them to be having fun because it’s good for you know the city GDP and for my wallet so please all right somebody fix the Panthers I don’t know
If it’s terer God what an awful game bingles and the Browns all right the Browns are let’s you know this was a very nice come back down game now they started Jeff Driscoll okay they didn’t really have too much to play for so they weren’t going to really play Flo play M
You know they weren’t going to go all out with the team so Bengal had pretty you know easy I don’t want to say easy but you know the game was pretty much in their control and it was 31- 14 they get the win they in on a good note Browning
Threw three touchdowns uh I oh not Chase not Higgins but I savis I hope I said his name right andreo sis had two touchdowns in this game so yeah crit with Curtis D shout out to him Bengals get the win nothing crazy to talk about there uh Lions take out the Vikings 30
To 20 um however you know they they were playing for you know this wasn’t like a meaningless game for their Lions right if we have lost they had a chance you know to move up in some seeds and you know still playing still have some stuff
To play for but uh man Sam leap pora breaks the rookie record you know as a tight end you know basically has all those receiving yards receptions touchdowns he’s got it um unfortunately he hyperextends his knee in this game and that is a big big loss for the Lions
Going into the you know Wild Card round next week because he has been a huge focal point on that offense especially for golf so yeah that’s rough he golf by the way goes 320 and two touchdowns in this game uh Monte scores his 13th touchdown in the season and Le pora like
I said was doing Le pora things five receptions on seven targets and a touchdown in this game so uh yeah hoping for you know him to get well soon cuz I really hate that for the Lions cuz they’ve had such a magical season and it sucks for them to lose such a focal
Point out rookie you know in this way on the last week of the season I hate it you know even as somebody that might have to play the Lions potentially in the playoffs I hate it all right so uh wishing him the best arsb however held it down seven receptions 144 and a
Touchdown what a surprise that he is fight on fight on all right what a surprise he’s one of the best receivers in the country not at all surprised Aiden Hutchinson had two sacks I think that brings his season total to what 11 and a half yeah very solid second year
For Hutch um definitely looks like he is that focal point that other you know piece of the puzzle defensively that danam Campbell was looking forward to be that Superstar looks like he can be that guy for the Lions so yeah besides Le pora very good game to build momentum
Going into the playoffs get to beat another divisional foe so yeah great season for the Lions but man that leor loss really really really really sucks oh boy Jets Patriots ladies and gentlemen you you know I was sad about Brandon Aubrey losing his streak right his perfect
Season Pat’s fans you were sad for a whole different reason because For the First Time in 15 games the New York Jets have beating the New England Patriots listen I don’t know if bill is going to have a job by the end of this week I don’t know if B belich might be
Finished I can excuse a Bad season I can excuse it let’s be real Patriots aren’t that good I roster they’re not that good either quarterback options are bayy zap or M JS they don’t really have any weapons okay so no surprise there but losing to the
New York Jets I mean we’ve seen some crummy postra and we’ve seen some garbage Patriots teams still manag to beat some almost okay almost not mediocre Jets teams but on this day yesterday it finally happened the Jets get to win 17 to3 which is I mean historic Trevor Simeon went eight for 20
Had 70 yards and they still won shot to Bree Hall who towed it nearly 40 times for 178 but the Jets have done it all right Patriots need to do some soul searching some very extensive soul searching including drafting a new quarterback and we’ll need to determine whether belich
Is their papovich or if it is time for him to go cuz I don’t know but congrats to jets for exercising their demons after a nightmare season the Saints beat the piss out of the Falcons all right Arthur Smith this this is this has been the game that somehow 48 to 17 you’re
Probably think get M Saints BL the Falcons no controversy about this game all of the controversy all right all of it somehow both teams took a l in this how do you win 48- 177 and both teams come out of this game looking bad how is that possible you know how that is
Possible the 2023 2024 NFC South that is how two teams can look worse coming out of a blowout game for one team the Saints I should be talking about how Derek Carr threw for 264 and four touchdowns I should be talking about that TCU alum Andre Miller getting in
The Box rahee shahid’s great touchdown for the Falcons I should be talking about man bejan is that guy he has seven receptions 10 three and a touchdown he was carrying the load earlier on made this game look like it might be something before it got out of control
That’s what I should be talking about but no yeah I should be talking about honey badger should had to pick six should be talking about that but no no no Arthur Smith Smith football terrorist noted football terrorist has been fired much to the Glee of Falcons fans everywhere Desmond Ritter is also see
You out of here option not getting picked up they will be drafting a quarterback in the draft this coming year um so somebody gets to book their SHP to uh Atlanta New Orleans who won this game by the way by 31 points and it really should have been
Less seven less to be exact than that um because Arthur Smith before he gets fired um and gets tacked at the end of this game uh has Choice words with Dennis Allen because Jamal Williams who let the you know League actually in touchdowns last year rushing touchdowns
Didn’t have one this year the team the Saints as a team word for word out of jamus Winston’s mouth made a team decision to overrule Dennis Allen’s call for a kneel down on the goal line and gave the ball on a fake kneel down to Williams so he could score his one
Touchdown this year Shannon sharp I I think put it very eloquently um as he could everybody got to go Dennis Allen hate it for you my brother but clearly you can’t control this locker room if the player the backup it wasn’t even car it was the backup quarterback jamus
Winston has enough pool on this team to overrule you they don’t have enough respect for you that they said nah we going to get our boy his touchdown with the game finished done dusted take a e we’re shaking hands but no they said f that we going to do what
We want to do so you can’t control the locker room so unfortunately thanks for the 500 season you got to go jamus Winston by the way you got to go too I don’t care that you apparently clearly you’re a great locker room guy you you can’t just do that you
Can’t just make that decision I get what you’re trying to do as a former play like I get it but you can’t just like nah bro we gonna get him this touchdown it’s meaningless it’s meaningless it’s a meaningless touchdown it wasn’t even like yo games on the line put Jamal in
Instead of ak41 let him put this in you know build the morale what even that it was yo my guy doesn’t have a touchdown this year I’m a what even a real play right if you going to run the play run it out of a real formation so the
Falcons are ready for it instead of yo I’m going run a fake kneel down give it to Williams who’s lined up as the fullback and let him get on on a untested defense weak weak as Shannon said on first take earlier today a losers mentality pure and simple and I
Don’t really I like jamus so I don’t really want to get on his case like this but uh I’m I mean it’s pretty telling about his future in the league if we saw what I mean Brady’s waning the goat right but the way the baker Mill Baker Mayfield excuse me commandeered that
Buccaneers team in the worst division of football and look so much better and was able to win the division and you can’t even beat out Derek Carr what’s your worth to this team you don’t listen to coaching clearly you’re a great locker room guy there’s a lot of great locker room
Guys what what is your worth to this team at this point incredible I mean just incredible stuff how do you win a game by 31 and you still manage to look worse still manage to throw the organization into chaos I mean incredible stuff that’s the NFC South for you though Saints win and
Lose Falcons lose and kind of win honestly so uh yeah very interesting result there oh boy listen listen listen listen Trevor la didn’t play a good game I’m not going to T is my guy but he did not play a good game he had two interceptions made
A lot of Horrid throws in this game he made some great throws but he also had some very hard throws but I’m not going to lie to you I saw this coming a mile away I was not surprised that the Titans eliminated the Jaguars 28 to 20 from
Playoff contention yesterday I was not surprised in the least I knew this was going to happen after what did I say I’ve said it every single week since this happened you should have sat him you should have sat him let him rest and you should have killed his confidence
But no you kept playing him and the injuries kept piling up so here you go you sit him for one week finally but it’s too late his confidence is gone I mean he’s still going to trot out there because it’s Trevor Lawrence but his
Confidence is gone I had no one I had I knew exactly what type of game T was going to play it was not going to be one of those master classes he’s done it was going to be a disaster class and that’s what they got all right and and some of
That has to go on Peterson cuz he did not coach a good game game he got out coached by vable yesterday too the Jaguars collapsed you were eight and3 you should be good with a talent on this team you should be good eight and three when that injury
Happened you sit him you lose a couple games that’s fine you come back with the hope and you come back with the healthy quarterback to end the stretch and finish this thing off instead you let him play injured and it got worse and you kept losing he got worse you kept
Losing I mean just diabolical diabolical management player management from the Jacksonville Jaguars they didn’t deserve to make the playoffs so I like I said I wasn’t shocked that King Henry ran for 153 and got to have his perfect send off from Tennessee if this was the last
One I was not surprised hop shout out to him as well seven receptions 46 yards and a touchdown I believe credit Rec credit St to the Titans for ending the season on a good note Tanana Hill had a solid game to end off for probably his
Last season in Titan uniform as well but the Jaguars you blew it don’t don’t point fingers at each other y’all as a collective blew it this season you had it in your hands we were talking about y’all as potential contenders and you blew it simply put blew it Seahawks
Cardinals this game brought me pain all right cuz Matt Prader just just didn’t have it all right he just didn’t have it I could have won the pool this week I mean ex yeah I could have win the pool this week and I was facing my dad One V
One right and after that Jaguar tits game we were tied going into the four o’ clocks and at one point I was up by two could have sealed the the overall championship in terms of picking teams for the week and for the season I had the championship in my hands and then
Matt Prader missed two field goals and the Seahawks wion the game 21 to 20 uh pretty much sums up the Cardinal season honestly they were the most competitive 4 and13 team but they were still a 4 and13 team they just couldn’t get it done when it mattered simply put
Couldn’t get it done when it mattered not even just Prader just as a collective they could not get it done couldn’t get the stop couldn’t get the yards whatever it was that’s what happened for the Cardinals and this is a great summary of their season Seahawks
Though gin like I said closed very well he had two touchdowns in this game uh locket had two SE two receptions 71 yards and a touchdown will dley also got in the Box Cardinals uh Kyler wasn’t bad by any means James right away has been very a very very very good acquisition
For them 150 in this game for him he also had 54 yards receiving he is that he is the running back there he is he’s got it he can be the Bell cow he can C he can do it all all right Conor is the guy need to keep him around but yeah
Like I said Cardinal have plenty of opportunity to close this one out and they could not do it so they take that L Green Bay still runs Chicago but that’s no surprise Packers get the win at home 17- nine Jordan love had 36 and two touchdowns okay I don’t really need
To talk a bun about this the Bears talked a big game thinking they were going to play spoiler we all knew that was not going to happen if you know anything about the Packers and May’s rivalry in the 21st century so yeah uh just a really good game for them jayen
Reed had 112 Aaron had 111 Jay love did his thing so yeah Packers get the win Chiefs and the Chargers the Chargers stink which we’ve said multiple times this year but I just want to say it one more time because the same way that we were like
Man Carinos have been a remarkable 4 and13 team in terms of competitiveness the Chargers might be the worst 5- 12 or five and anything 5- 11 is what it used to be right they are the worst 5- 11 5- 12 team in NFL history all right find me
One team worse than this year’s Chargers that won five games you can’t in the history of the league you can’t I’m imp pitiful it hurts me to talk about this team sometimes and I’m not even a fan okay it’s such a waste it’s just a waste this season was
A waste Easton stick sucks I mean he was okay in this game but he’s not that guy I know they didn’t play they know they didn’t have Keenan or whatever it was but still you’re supposed to you’re supposed to win this game bro the Chiefs played nobody they played an XFL team
And you lost you lost to bla gabber pitiful all right right just pitiful absolutely pitiful they didn’t even yeah P didn’t even play bro like it’s just pitiful all right pitiful pitiful pitiful pitiful pitiful for the Chargers I am I know Chargers fans are estatic all right estatic that this game
Is over and I don’t blame them that this season is over and I don’t blame them because it was just horrid Chiefs get the win though 13 to 12 um and yeah just horrible Raiders get the win 27 to 14 uh yeah nothing really crazy to talk
About here uh shout out to jacobe Myers he had a hell of a game Zeus had over 100 yards I think for the first time in his career and the Broncos uh they gave up the season win they sat Russ so uh yeah nothing really else to say about that Raiders get the
Win gear Park on official water break cuz I’ve been waiting on this one oh I’ve been waiting on this one I got enough time oh yeah ladies and gentlemen once again I want to direct your fingers up in the sky I want you to point it at the screen
Or I want you to point it to the nearest Philadelphia Eagle fan and I want you to join me as once again everybody laugh at the [Laughter] Eagles everybody laugh at the Eagles [Laughter] fan frauds all a lot man frauds you’re all frauds you’re you’re frauds now I
Know metti got to you the the Met Life the turf got to you all right so I’m hoping for the best for AJ Brown in all seriousness besides the Laughing part but boy oh boy 20 y’all we’re down let me see 24 to nothing to the to the New
York Giants in Tyrod Taylor woo man oh man oh man now I know jayen Herz um you know Drew walls dislocated his finger which sucks but man 24 to nothing you’ll end up getting 10 points so I guess credit what credits do right 27 to 10 it makes it look a little bit
Better but boy oh boy oh boy everybody laugh at the Eagles frauds can we stop treating them like they’re like Super Bowl contenders can can we stop can we stop I’m not me just being like can we stop like with the on paper we’re we’re Alabama the Eagles right we’re oh man
They’re the Eagles on paper they look you know decent while ignoring the fact that they have done nothing down the stretch I mean they’re not quite Jaguars level of collapse but boy they have collapsed from they have fallen the Angels the Eagles have fallen from the sky from their pedestal they have
Descended Upon Us they’ve been kicked off by the New York Giants boy oh boy I mean a humiliating game a nightmare game from The Eagles I mean Eagles fans are they’re 11 and six and I had Eagles fans on Twitter begging for the season to be
Over it’s been that type of finish for the Eagles but like I said ladies and gentlemen one last time for the for the regular season at least everybody Point laugh of the Eagles [Laughter] fan all right Rams get the win all right they get the rim and get the Wild Card
Somehow half point off a win against the 49ers they were down 20 to7 in this game but found a way where there’s a will there’s a way credit where Carson Wentz deserves some credit all right A lot of people you know counted him out he a right back or whatever the whatever Gino
Said all right Wentz did the same thing right he bought out in this game had over 200 yards total had three touchdowns in this game none more important than that one in the fourth quarter to take the lead of this game and that two-point conversion he got to
Two two at well to put this away so credit like I said what credit is due puka he got the records no surprise there he has been phenomenal like I said rookie of the year for the NFC at the very least in the 49ers I mean they rested
Their starter so I mean this loss doesn’t really affect them that much everything was kind of sealed up so they didn’t really care all right the 49ers really didn’t care about this game but uh the Rams they did and they did find a way to win so credit where credit do to
The Rams for getting it done the Bills take out the dolphins all right because we need to have a conversation about Tua by the way credit or credits du not that he played a great game but uh Josh Allen had 359 two touchdowns two picks if for anybody wondering over 300 yards he
Didn’t play a great game all right he was turnover prone as always and that nearly cost him the game they did they they won this game but they didn’t win this game if you know what I mean but winning is all that matters they surged at the end of the season after being
Nearly finished and found a way to win the AFC and grabb the number two seed so credit Rec credit to to the bills but like I said two up yeah he’s just not that guy he’s a good quarterback but he’s just not that guy you know um I want to
Say and be like a you know he say he’s like oralist but like he’s just not that guy he just he doesn’t deliver when you need him to be a star quarterback he just doesn’t deliver I know everybody talks about Dak in that context but we
Need to talk about Tua like like even worse more flagrant cuz I can’t remember the last time Tua has showed up and done the stuff that we see him do against some of the worst teams at least when’s the last time he did that against like in a game that
Really really mattered in a big game I I I can’t recall it’s always a mistake or something that kills the Dolphins in the end and it’s always usually him now he’s 25 I’m not saying get rid of him but boy oh boy up to this point
At least Tua has not been the guy in a great opportunity for him to be the guy with the weapons he has of the Dolphins in a very winable game against the bills he couldn’t get it done simply put he couldn’t get it done I know by the
Way very happy cheetah was okay after that fire but still um and you can say a lot what’s going on with the team but still home game against the bills division on the line you need your Star Quarterback your franchise quarterback has to play better than Tu did yesterday
And he did not and uh yeah ultimately it cost the Dolphins wins and of course now we got the playoffs so just going through some of the matchups you know very very quickly all right very very briefly all right so we can get over to the Roundup all right finish the segment
Off we got the Steelers versus the bills which should be the bill listen the Bills should have it but Lord knows all right honestly Lord knows all right with the Steelers this season just Lord knows the Bills should win this game but we will see what happens uh the Chiefs and
The Dolphins which of course is headlined by right cheetah facing his old team can they get it done they’ll be at home so can they make it happen I don’t know we will see but uh yes should be very interesting of course that’s the Intriguing storyline uh Mahomes will be
Back can they get it together can they make it listen that’s a that’s going to be a really close game so yeah plenty of story lines there Texans and the Browns which would be the deshun Watson uh homecoming game but he ain’t playing he gone he injured
So we got Joe Flaco back at home for the Browns can they keep it surging or is it CJ Stout’s time can he make it happen in the playoffs as well we will find out can demo Ryan continue his coach of the year bid of course the way the NFL playoffs
Will set up the lowest seed will face the Ravens so we’ll see what happens there cowboys Packers which I’m mortified still by the fact that we lost to the Packers all those years ago when Dez caught the ball and it wasn’t a catch so I’m very nervous about this
Even though we should win I am still very nervous about this game the Packers are very solid so uh yeah we will see what happens but yeah Packers Cowboys Lions Rams two teams that you know for a long period of time we thought were kind of and maybe still are training in opposite
Directions in terms of Rams won a Super Bowl now they’re kind of descending from the elite the lions were in the C for a very long time now they might be ascending into the elite so uh a very intriguing game there as well with story lines and of course the Eagles and the
Buccaneers can the Eagles get it back on track or will the Buccaneers who are at home for this game can they get it done so yeah plenty to plenty plenty plenty to talk about with the Wild Card next week but we will talk about that in
Episode 180 but for now that was the NFL and with that said ladies and gentlemen we have reached the Roundup World Juniors oh mama don’t you cry US Hockey is do or die and boy was it do or die at the world juniors cuz we got it
Done baby we got it done the world juniors belong to US USA wins 6-2 over Sweden in the gold medal to take gold we love to see it um shout out to Lane who fought at the End by the way very Scrappy game Sweden of course this
Tournament was in Sweden so uh truly a home game for the swedes but they couldn’t get it done USA we were just that Team all right we were Invincible we didn’t lose a game the entire world junior so that was cool too but yeah Lane fighting at the end was kind of
Funny leaki does win MVP but unfortunately was not enough for the sweds uh cier monster snugs monster it was just a by the way we had some great names on the team but yeah it was it was it was just Glory all right it was glorious glorious glorious all right
Nobody listen nothing unites the country like country-based competitions of the world juniors has United the US um as we get done versus Sweden and uh yeah pumped about that we will see what happens Bard who was the hero of last year’s World Juniors of course the generational Prospect we’ve been talking
About all year and for a while now at this point Bard breaks his jaw which the NHL is now now going to be furious cuz he’s going to miss the allar game very very likely um clean hit though by bradden Smith but unfortunately Bard breaks his jaw sucks to play um kind of
Went like that but hey it’s hockey wishing all the best for who would have been the Rookie of the Year by a long shot and a guy who’s looked every bit as generational as expected so yeah gasum Mard the other generational Prospect of course in the ends which is
In the NBA wimy had a great week this week but uh the the SP souck they’re ho which is what I put on my notes they’re ho um blue two games in the closing moments this week after you know wmy went Toe totoe with Giannis um and then
They folded and then wmy went off again against the Cavs and they folded again and really he’s doing all this on like 20 minutes a game and he’s also doing this without the team really doing a great job of finding him so it could be even better for wimy but uh the Spurs
Sucks yeah they’re just they’re they’re not very good all right historically speaking also one of the worst for number one overall teams in in NBA history currently so we will see what happens but yeah wimy shines the Spurs are horrid Warriors continue to struggle I uh Jonathan kaminga wants outs because
He doesn’t believe in Kerr a lot of flat going on there um Dynasty is crumbling okay it is crumbling in front of our eyes and I’m not a Warriors fan so I’m not like hey I’m like okay you know circle of sports circle of life but uh
For warriors fans I know this has to be painful for it to all fall apart like this after all the years of Glory which I know you’re grateful for the core is getting old and getting injured Draymond suspended clay sucks Steph’s trying to carry the team the young Talent hasn’t
Developed the way that y’all hoped wisman got shipped away Kinga is upset and when he gets the you know the chance to do what you know he says he can he doesn’t Moody hasn’t developed maybe the way that yall thought so uh yeah rough going for the Warriors we’ll see what
Happens jokic literally cannot miss right now he’s missed six shots in like the last six games he only missed one shot he only took three by the way yesterday he had 16 assists against the Pistons oh my goodness what a monster all right what a monster shout out to
Jic uh if em wasn’t doing what em is doing jic might be going for a third MVP so yeah another great season from The Joker and the NBA continues to heat up as we get closer and closer and closer and closer to the all-star break and eventually to the playoffs but we will
See what happens and of course we will talk more football crunch time playoff time it’s one in time in in the NFL and in the CFB um of course that’s tonight but uh yeah football Big Time episode today Big Time episode next week hope you guys enjoyed without further Ado
