Bills-Patriots Recap + Week 13 Odds & Ends (Friday Fun Show with Patrick Claybon)

00:00:12
Speaker 1: Whee see out. It's the Friday Fun Show working title. Not Dan hands is today. He's not feeling well, so we're, uh, we're playing hurt without him. But I've got Mark Sessler here, I've got Patrick Claibon here with this now regular every other Friday Fun Show appearance working title again. What's up, guys, hanging there Dan? That that that's that's that's what's up. Hopefully Dan is up upright, uh, doing better, having dealt with what feels like a very similar thing also given to me with the kids. Um, it's it's not fun and it lasts way too long, and I hate it. We should get rid of viruses band viruses forever. I think anyone that listened to the Thursday show could tell that Dan courageously gutted through. I mean, he was already in the middle of this illness. Um. I do question about the possibility that Greg and I now simply catch it because we were in a window lists air tight room about three feet from Dan's mouth and face. But um, we'll see what occurs. Patrick said we would know right away, so we don't need to go into more details. I'm just I'm just I'm sending you guys, positive thoughts. You know, it's Aaron Rodger's birthday. I believe in math because you know astrology. Your third house is in cucumber or something. I don't know. Anyway, you guys are fine. You're not gonna get sick. I love all the comments that you're sending in at the bottom. If you're watching us on YouTube, if you're listening, um, we love you too. There's a lot of you out there. And you can also watch the replay on YouTube after the fact if you don't uh find it live. We got a lot to get to. We got Patriots Bills. Not a great game, but not you know, as blowouts go. I think it had some entertainment value. We've got Mark set slurs. It's about me. Um, you know, all of it's about me's are great, but Mark sesslers are even greater. And uh, we've got some predictions. And we've also got a shout out to our most loyal listeners of the twenty two year. This is a a surprise for our listeners. It's a surprise for Patrick Claiban. But let's start with Patriots Bills. Bills win this one to ten. Hit the highlight Graver Josh and the gun fix the hand off, Watch the throw fires one into the end zone, caught, it is a touchdown. Stefon digs touchdown Buffalo. That was John Murphy w g R. It wrapped up a drive that started like somewhere on the mass Pike in Boston and ended five hours later in the end zone, sucking whatever life there was in Gillette Stadium out of the building. Bills win twenty four to tend. They dominate time of possession, They dominate in many ways, primarily mark because Josh Allen is on their team and not on the Patriots. Yeah, there was a really stark contrast watching really what was a workman like performance by the Bill's offense and Josh Allen. Um a couple of always amazing throws the Gabe Davis throw in their um sort of defying how the human body is supposed to work for most of us. Uh, it seems like he'll do something like that every week. But that drive that you mentioned, I mean, if there was any life left in New England at all, it took it away. And I just think that across the field you're watching, um, Matt Jones bubble over and frustration. I mean, we've been hearing and it's not you know, they weren't whispers. Just there has been frustration from Mac Jones with the coaching all year long, and I thought that last night on an Island game Thursday night football performance were on the sideline, you see him just explode at I don't care if he says it wasn't it Matt Patricia or wasn't it Joe Judge, whoever? It is that environment, and we've been kind of questioning it all year long. Is it really as big of an impact as we think? Um? Their offense just looks disorganized, messy, um and without a real focus, And so I think it does a post Josh McDaniel's universe. I'm looking at Mac Jones and feeling like they kind of sacrificed his entire second season. I mean, it just feels lost to me to the point mark where you know, we we all remember the Brown Time game where the fans and Geletta give it up on Mac Jone's there were chants for Bailey Zappy, and so Mac is in this situation now where he comes into the game and yeah, we see the frustration and the video of him saying words that we can't say, maybe we can say them here, but we can't say them in our other aspects of our job. It provides like a nice side note, something to show. But the thing to show is the Patriots offense struggling. It's them having literally no answers consistently over and over again, and even when there were drives that were uh presumably going to be successful, they just kind of petered out and they didn't have the answers. And then on the other side, um watching Ken Dorsey literally called the same exact play where you see stuff on dig scoring a touchdown, then they run Gabe Davis on the same route. Like the Bills weren't worried about the Patriots at all, and it really showed through last night. Yeah, I think the Patriots defense was what I expected. They were fine. They you know, at one point in the game they forced what three straight stops. I think that they had the sack Fumbo by ch and a couple of punts uh sandwich at the end of the first half in the beginning of the second half, and that was the point. If there's any way for the Patriots to compete in this game, their offense needs to score points and make it a game. I mean, giving up three hundred and fifty yards and twenty four points and getting four stops against the Bills is about as good as I can expect. I think they focused on stopping josh Allen's legs, keeping them in the pocket. They did that, Uh, letting Devon Singletary and James Cook try to beat you. Unfortunately, they did that. They ran the ball I think twenty eight or nine times between those two running backs. And if the Bills can do that with a banged up offensive line who really wasn't playing well or protecting Josh Allen, you're not gonna beat him. I think it was more about Alan just like making great plays when the Bills had the ball at least. There was like a third and three early in the first half that was just unbelievable. That like you won't remember that he runs around and finds a you know, well covered Stefen Diggs. Uh. There was you know, the touchdown pass where Alan's fallen out of bounds. I mean, Herb Street and al Michaels acted like that was some normal play. That's a third down, that's a fourth four doubt, you know, a four point play. There was so many plays like that where I actually thought the Patriots defended it well enough and like, yeah, you can't single up Stefon Diggs most of the games and survived. But it's like it was more just Josh Allen is incredible in herb Streets out there acting like Boise State just kicked a field goal in the second quarter? Does it? Does that bother anyone else? Market? But you know what I love is that um you know where we we gather before the show for a couple of minutes and we talk about things, and Greg's disdain for Kirk herb streets lack of enthusiasm on last night's broadcast was the singular talking point. I totally agree, because I think I do understand a little bit. I mean, their job is to see in real time. Like when we talked to Mark Sanchez, He's saying, I look at every play from four different angles. If herb Streets doing that, how do you come out of that moment not wondering how a human being just did what he did? And it's like next gens Stats tracked that UM and they go back to as the second closest past released next to the sideline UM ever and before that are within one yard, since Josh Allen has three of them. So this is the guy that does this on a regular basis. In the way that he just delivered the ball across just slipped away. Who was it Patriots? Was that Peppers? I don't even remember who it was. He just it was a little bug. Well that's the thing, and that's it's a singularly Josh Allen type play because afterwards I was like, I have to go look at the nngs on that. So he's running sixteen miles an hour to his right, and so the poor guys is literally doing all he can to catch up to him at all, and then he gets there and it's like a dog catch in a car, Like what am I gonna do? He gets stiff arm and then you gotta see what I mean. We'll we'll talk about it if Kirk kerr Street doesn't um because guys get to the side, like Zach Wilson, for example, he gets to the sideline, there's no plan. Josh Allen was planning on jumping and then finding somewhere to throw the ball like he did that, And that's and that you just don't have that playmaking capacity everywhere and when you have it, you hold on to it, you appreciate it. Yeah, like he throws a pick like he does later on, who cares, like you're gonna turn the ball over, but you like, it's just such a value to have a guy that can make plays. Right. This reminded me a week one and I and we've pointed this out at different points of this season. He can now outpatient you, and I think I don't hate that as a strategy for the Patriots, just because you're an in fear your team and see what happens. But when he can do that, and he only averaged you know, six point eight yards per a tempt, but he was picking up all the third and shorts, and he's just really developed mentally in terms of being patient when he wants to be. It's not gonna happen every week. You still get the great place. I was at an event at my children's elementary school during this game. It was family heritage night. It was beautiful. They sang a little song, you know, they sang songs. Has been the first time since the pandemic that there was a little you know, you get a bunch of seven and eight year old singing, it'll bring a tiert your eye almost and I'm checking the score during the game. I'm like, oh, I don't need to even watch this tonight. I'm gonna watch it in the morning. And it wasn't even as bad as I thought it was gonna be, because it was exactly as embarrassing offensively for the Patriots as I thought, but the other way around, it was just like, uh no, Josh Allen is awesome. My My last thing on the Patriots, though, is pick a scheme. They're just they're just trying a million different things at once. Kurt Warner had a good video about it this week on his QB Confidential slate. I had never seen his videos before, and he really pointed out something I've noticed, which is just they're trying everything all at once. Their timing is all off, and I think that's where Mac Jones was yelling. What he said was to get rid of, you know, the quick game isn't working. That's what they're trying to be quick game. They're trying to be shotgun. They're trying to be a power running team. They tried to be a zone running team. Uh. The one thing they do well is play action and take some deep shots. And they didn't do any of that. Kendrick Boorne called out the schematics as well a little bit after the game, and uh, it's like they just didn't even take advantage of the fact that von Miller wasn't there, and that like they didn't take advantage of the fact that Dion Dawkins wasn't there. Just it was pretty rough. It was one little hopeful note for New England. This is so Belichick in but the Marcus Jones, uh screen touchdown the way they're using him, who's not a natural receiver, right, Belichick, going back through history, was the guy that um was on the Giants staff. When Dave Meggett, who is essentially an inch shorter and the same weight as Marcus Jones, started to get used in a bunch of different ways, he had Eric Metcalffine. So I just wonder what will happen with Marcus Jones and if we'll see a little bit more of that, because it's like at this point, that's the second longest play they've had all year, other than John who Smith's like fifty one yard or against the Browns. I mean, they've just been a non explosive offense. And I mean anything you can do to unlock you're still in the playoff chase. I don't buy into them at all at this point. It's kind of shocking to see a Belichick team this disjointed in December, but they're still hanging around Mathematically. Well, you know what's gonna happen with Marcus Jones. It's it's in stone. He's gonna score like four more offensive touchdowns and then after retirement he's going to be one of the loans successful Belichick coaching Tree candidates and he'll be good. Yeah. The Patriots, by the way, have the Cardinals and Raiders next. They're both on the road. The way this team is playing, I actually think the most likely outcome of those two games is one and one, But certainly you could see them winning both of them, and then they would be eight and six and still hanging around going into Week sixteen. At that point though, they have the Bengals, Dolphins, and Bills in a row, and it it just feels like this is gonna be an eight or nine win team. That's kind of what we expected at the beginning of the season. All the offseason. Patricia stuff, I think has come to fruition. Mac Jones looks much worse. I think mostly because of the offense. Um, you know, he's not a dynamic playmaker that's gonna like overcome that. But I think we've seen him be better. And I hope they changed their offensive staffs this offseason, but I kind of I think Belichick will be more too stubborn. Let's get to some comments here. Graver Reed Anderson says claibon is a sex symbol, which is like, okay, fine, Um, but so are Mark and I and Uh. The latter goes without saying, you know, sort of just implied, yes, Mark, you said you had a you were gonna have a that you're we had a comment that you're imprisoned again. You're in the same spot. You had a look all the letters, all all of the advocation for free Mark Sessler hasn't necessarily liberated him, but he's got some more decorations in the in the cell. Is at better? Well? I did on. I mentioned to uh to Justin before the show that, um, I had a painting that I hung up behind me and it was one of the one of those little double sided hooks that you think but the painting about twelve minutes later, just crashed to the ground because it was too heavy for the hook. So I think the universe is telling me, don't don't toy with what's already aesthetically working. JM S. What's more likely Sean Payton to the charge all Chargers or the Cardinals the Chargers, Greg, what do you want more? I want Herbert? I actually I want Kyler Murray more because I don't know. I don't want to root against Brandon Staley losing this job, but I do want a different offensive mind there. So I would be thrilled with both, to be real, because I think Sean Payton could could help either one of those quarterbacks. I am still curious how this is all gonna play out because Sean Payton's best friend, Mickey Loomis is running the negotiations of like what the trade terms are going to be to get him out of there, and Sean Payton's kind of screwing over the Saints by quitting after getting like a huge raise on his contract, and and um then you know, gonn to force his way out and having his friend make this trade. But I think it's gonna happen. I really think the Cardinals are going to uh change their coaches here. All right, let's go to another question. Just tuned in. Where is the old juicer that's from Colton? Uh, you know we mentioned at the beginning of the show Colton show up at the beginning, he said, Alan Hilly asked for a rainmaker. By the way, can we put that up a little next? Freddie hall Us general thoughts on the World Cup, Fellas, Let's start with Clay Bond boring or fun? Who's if? No, it's one, It's not boring to me. If it's born to you, you don't have to watch it, like you can go do something else, like stare at the sky. I enjoy it. I enjoy all sports. I think like we getting these like sports versus sports arguments, that's the most boring thing on the planet. Sports are cool watch sports enjoy I mean, I think like the World Cup. I'll have a great memory of of um, the previous World Cup when when a bunch of us went to this place, the garage which was near our old like workplace and west was there absolutely on fire, uh And it was just a jam packed with like four people rooting for the same thing, which I thought was kind of great. Like, I mean there haven't been too many l A sports bar experiences where you don't have a bunch of people kind of like with differing rooting interests and getting each other's faces and stuff. It's usually Raiders fans, So I like that, Like, no, I love it. I mean I watched Korea when this morning and just the emotion on the players to come through in a game like that Japan yesterday obviously a popular one in my house. I was at work, but Emmica is going crazy, you know. Shout out to all the Asian countries. Australia although they're not technically Asian, but they're in that group of like World Cup qualifying the Asian group and all three of them through to the sixteen. It's been a lot of upsets. It's been fun. Alan Hilly ask, can we get a Rainmaker prediction? Please? Kids gotta eat. It's funny, Alan, you mentioned that because I was considering that I'm four and one on the season. Let's do it right now because it's rainy in Santa Monica. That's why the internet isn't working that well. And it's gonna be raining in Baltimore this week as well. Yeah, the Ravens are heavy favorites, but they got the Broncos coming in and they're angry. And I'm not someone who usually likes these big spreads at all, but it's not big enough for me. I think it's an eight and a half or nine, and the Ravens are sick to their stomach about what happened a week go. I actually think they have a top five defense despite blowing that game against the Jaguars, and I think this is gonna be twenty four to six, an easy cover, and the Rainmaker goes to five and one. Well, I have a little Ravens prediction coming up later which may fly in the face of your rainmaking attempts. So we'll see who comes out on top. Yeah, it is really pouring and we I walked to school and we have a pretty long walk to school. It's about eighteen minutes and the kids the eighteen each way, and the kids they beg to walk on raining days. They want to put on the rain boots. They you know, they're l a kids that this is exciting. You know what else is exciting? When Mark has in it's about me, let's do it. Let's do a little Bit's about come on, it's about hornblower that hornblowers like when we used to clock in and out of the NFL, and you'd like more overtime there. Uh, this is gonna require number one out of the gate. The people are loyal viewers and listeners, UM are part of this. Uh. This is going to require some public theatrics that they cannot go in and spoil it. So they got to they're part of a secret society here. This is what we're about to do. I UM, it's about me, but I'm gonna make this about you guys. And uh, I'm going to create UM today for each of you a specialized tweet that you're going to tweet out. UM. I'll send you it in in its exact verbiage, and some of them have images, and we're all gonna just let these tweets sit out there. Are not gonna be some JABRONI that's like, hey, I saw the show. This is fake. It's like, it is my tweet for you, and we'll just see how society responds to it. So we'll start with Greg UM and Justin has been kind enough to help create UM some visuals for us here if you're watching, and UH, I created one for Justin two, so he didn't get off Scott free. So let's go to Greg's first. All right, So I don't know if people of a certain age might recognize the image here, but Greg tweets out. Been spending my downtime rereading the nine volume Little House on the Prairie series, totally forgot how dark it gets when a post scarlet fever, Mary goes blind in the fifth book, by the shores of Silver Lake. So you're Greg, I'll send you the text, I'll send you the picture at post show. You're gonna tweet this out and just see. Let earth handle it as it will. It's about me, it's you. I'm not supposed to talk. You have to do this. Yeah, we have to do this. We actually do some sort of competition here. Well. I also just to let you know and we'll get Well, let's do let's do claibons next, Um claibon. You're gonna be tweeting this out it it says, it's sort of a question to to your followers, what's next in the pattern? Um in parentheses. This blew my mind when I finally figured it out. One of those kind of things that kind of helps people in so You've got people staring at these next things, and they read in line seven fourteen A B B C c Amber the cat, D D Bumblebee, Tuna E seventy seven F F G G W C Fields Alex P. Keaton. Now you're gonna have people trying to find the pattern and figure out what it means. And some people will probably be very forceful and telling you that they've cracked the code. But there is no answer to this obviously absolute nonsense. Um, that's yours that will be coming to you. Now let's do Justin's This is gonna be a tweet from Justin to um Derrick Henry. He says, Yo, King Henry too. I've been grinding through my Titans tape. It's officially d Hember. I just wanted to let you know that I view you as a big, powerful runner who takes no prisoners on the gridiron. I admire your work, ethic and desire to destroy the enemy. Just see what comes out of that. The picture is also a great one of Derrick Henry crouching low in a custom made plaid suit. Right, so it's just perfect, it's perfect. Before their private jet goes to a game. Uh, now this one is Dan. I texted Dan to try to get some buy in here, but I believe he's probably in Snoozeville right now. He did not respond, But this will be Dan's if he um, he will agree because he other why would he not? He has integrity. So here's Dan's I'm spending December focusing on parts of my life I feel gratitude for. I am very thankful for my friends and family, as well as my love of music nineties especially what's something you're thankful for? Be specific? Let's celebrate life together. Perfect, there we go. This is I hope that I'm giving you something that will give back to you all weekend long. I think that was a great It's about Me. You you turned it on us and are creating uncomfortable situations um for us and Derrick Henry. I mean, this was similar to the game we once played text or tweet um, but it was like we all could share in that and and it was almost a punishment to get one of these. And now it's like you somehow used your It's about Me to punish us. Uh. Mika Lebano says that Mark never leaves character. Leslie Nielsen would be proud and to that, I said, this is not a character. Mark never leaves Mark. This is who he is. I I just want to create a scenario for each of you that UM has a lasting mark that I don't. I didn't try to use my name. They're just I wanted to. I wanted to see her your weekend UM for better or worse. A lasting mark with C is like definitely the fragrance name, like upcoming. I like that you're my brand ambassador. And also it's gonna take me forever to write out this tweet, so please you this is this is ridiculous. I I love it. Josh says this is why he joined Twitter, although it's kind of embarrassing because he never uses it except for a t N. Well thank you that that's very nice. Well, I mean Twitter. As as Patrick pointed out a few weeks back on his about me, you know, there's a lot going on, but let's just focus on the good stuff. I'm not going anywhere. It's not going anywhere. You know what else isn't going anywhere? The one minute injury update presented by accrashure your home for the best in catfind David Najoku is gonna miss this week's game. That's unfortunately after that one handed catch, he didn't practice all week and he's not gonna be back. Michael Carter is doubtful, so we're gonna get more Bam night for the Jets. To Ron Armstead as we're taping. We don't have an injury designation, but he sounds relatively optimistic that he might return for this game. For the Dolphins, Eric Armstead, also in that game, is gonna return after a long lay off. Christian McCaffrey is okay, but we'll see more. Jordan Mason, Deevo, Samuel Mims practice Thursdays. Just check that out. Justin fields practice fully on Thursday. We don't have his Friday availability, but the Bears did say if he's cleared by the doctors, he is playing. Aaron Rodgers also expected to play. Josh Jacobs expected to play. He's been limited in practice. That's true of Joe Mixon in Jamaar Chase, who should return to the lineup for the Bengals. Naja Harris, despite missing practice all week, says he's gonna play if you want to trust uh Naja Harris. But sometimes the players are more optimistic than the coaches. You just never know. Pete Werner bean back in practice. I want to see the Pete Werner Kaden Ellis linebacker combo. That could be fun. Marshawn Latimer might return for Monday Night too, because his nemesis Mike Evans is in this game. Jordan Davis has been back at practice for the Eagles, so he might come off ire. No Matthew Stafford, no Aaron Donald, no St Juice, Benjamin st Juice for the UH Washington Commanders, who I know Clay Bonn likes. And we got a questionable on Antonio Gibson and Chase Young for the Commandos. That's it for the injury minute presented by actors. What is Dan's status is? I'd call him right? Is he questionable? Probable? Ah? Yeah? Jim the editor says he's listed as questionable for Sunday, but the Heroes are expecting him to see the field. I think it's kind of like, uh, if he finished Thursday's game, Thursday's pod, which was in person, It's kind of like finishing the weeks before his game, and I think he'll be there on Sunday. Sunday's your big show? Good? All right? Should we do some predictions. Should we take some questions or should we give some pop to uh our favorite commenters or listeners from the year. What do you think? I think we go fan, we celebrate the fan, so uh, Mark, give me your experience. You wake up. I think it was Wednesday. It's wrapped day. We get a lot of buzz, a lot of people that listened to the show, letting us know how much they've listened during the year. How is that experience for you? I loved it because I didn't know what's happening, so it came out of nowhere. Wednesday's sort of our data kind of get prepared for Thursday. You're sitting around and like you're getting hit up with people who are telling you, um, like someone saying, I've listened to nineteen thousand minutes of the show and form my the way that my mind works. I was like sitting there trying to like unscramble like how many hours we put forward a week, times making that the year's amount and turn it in in minutes, and it's like I can't make any sense of But I think they're listening to it almost NonStop. It seems like at some point some people had I was like someone like twenty eight thousands. So I think it's i the dedication we do with the best listeners, and uh, I think it's incredible that they shared. It was cool to be able to like retweet some of them too. I mean, these guys are putting the work in. These guys and gals. You're right, twenty eight thousand would not even make this top five lists. So we decided to ask Justin grave Digger to uh compile the five biggest listeners that we received. We got some from the reddit boards, some from Instagram, and some just from Twitter, and I'm gonna run through them quickly, so you get it. You get a little mentioned here. Tyrolle Wilson on Twitter had thirty eight thousand, one hundred and thirty nine minutes. That's twenty six days worth, and he's only fifth on the list. Reddit view user h C one nine nine got up to thirty days. Uh, that's I don't even know how many hours it is. That's twenty nine thousand hours. James Richardson got it up to sixty two thousand, three twenty that's forty three point two days. I mean, are you just leaving it on overnight? That's the thing. I it seems impossible. Our Reddit user Nutcracker listen to ninety one thousand minutes. Uh, and that equals sixty three days. You spent a full two plus months with us, but you're not number one. Number one is Dallas Hoppa. You know who I'm talking about. Congrats to Reddit user at Dallas Hoppa thousand, one hundred and sixty seventy six minutes our top list there, and we're gonna we're gonna reward you, Dallas. Justin is uh gonna put it on the Reddit board and get your information. We've got a special prize pack going to you. We'll have some fun stuff, maybe some merch maybe some other fun stuff we're gonna send out to you, and I'm gonna push maybe we can even send them to more than just one of our listeners. And you see what we're doing here, Patrick, We're just we're just like motivating all the listeners to top these guys for next year. Can you top two months listening? I mean, what, how do you think they're just leaving it on overnight? Like I don't understand what's happening. I wonder if Dallas hoppas like maybe you're like a cross country like truck driver, and you're just rolling through old episodes and you're just grinding across the interstate, you know, but or maybe you're just in your house. I'm not sure there doesn't to be chicanery, because you can, you can, you can be double purposeful when you listen to a podcast, especially if you have Bluetooth headphones. You can wash the dishes. Of course, like there's there's It doesn't make it not viable if they're listening to old episodes while they sleep, like it's still something they're still listening. I was thinking, like maybe somebody sitting at work at a desk job for eight hours a day just listening NonStop to current episodes to old episodes, because I don't even think we put out minutes, not even someone. Someone just did the math and I'm just gonna trust it and the comment boards and they said that's something like thirty hours a week, which were not even close to thirty hours week. We don't even work thirty hours a week. If you listened eight hours a day, it would take you over two hundred days to get to this many hours. So that's like two Thursday. That's like a work week. Everyone now there was like a long distance driver who said, uh, I decided to go back and listen to the entire show from the very beginning. I did get one of that, but even that guy had like twenty than hours. I don't understand how this happens, but I love it, Um, and thank you all for listening. We love you, and yeah Dallas and hopefully some more. I feel like nut Cracker went over ninety thousand. He deserves a prize pack two. So we'll hook you up. All right, let's do some predictions. It's that time of the week, Patrick, Why don't you get us going on predictions? We usually go through the old ones, grave digger. Are we gonna do that? Do you want to do that? Or should we just move forward into week thirteen? Because I don't know what we predicted last it would normally know from so they're a little old, but I have them if you want them. I'm not that interested in them. Let's go to the only one that was right was yours, Greg, which was that the Lions would win in meadow Lands. We had three people predicted Jets would beat the Patriots and they lost ten to three in a horrible All of you guys jumped on the backs of the Jets. The Patriots might be the lousiest team you know Belichick's had and last place, but they still swept the Jets. They've got that much, all right. We're now eleven for fifty two on the year. Claibon trying to improve this this Uh, in a Vikings win where Kirk Cousins throws for more than two fifty passing yards, after the game, he will do something exceedingly cringe e that people for some reason, we'll gas up into yeah until we're tired of Yeah. That's all of that's going to happen. That feels like a lock, right, that's every single game. Wait, did you say in the Vikings win or just so you do well, they have to get the win. I picked the Jets this week. Uh, for what it's worth, I think that's I think that's pretty likely with that offensive line struggling. So okay, I did notice they have like a little baby they're not putting in chains now or like a baby Kirk, So maybe it's Kirk and the baby being together doing something that would be cringe and get they get it right. They did the chains thing and then Taylor Haneke swag Jack that and so the vik is we're we're not doing that anymore, So they're gonna have Kirk do something else. Goofy who whose baby is it? How did a baby get involved? I don't know. They sent something out on their official uh timeline. I was the first time I had seen it. But there's some guy, some some kid that dresses up as as Kirk cousin and change. Uh. Many of our listeners in the comments section noted that there was a ghost like figure in the background. Uh who, Yes, was Yessica. So there there's motivation to go looking to be clear in Justine's background not not anyone else is well you would like here to be in your background there, it's not accurate, I mean just I mean just saying like for the for the for the audio listener, like he's dropped these patrick throughout throughout the the last few months, and uh yeah, that's a motivation to go watch the YouTube show. You can see see Yessica Pierre at minute thirty four something. All right, Mark, what do you got? All right, Well, I'm one of the big reasons that we've gotten forty of these wrong over the course of the season. But um, I'm gonna keep firing. I got a four pack of quick predictions. Here. The Dalkins put up forty plus on the Niners in a stunner, Um Greg for you. The Ravens go into a full on crisis mode when they're outdueled by the Broncos, a team that suddenly scores at least twenty seven points on this so called um pristine Baltimore defense. Uh number three, A team owner says something that creates massive headlines by Monday night and the fourth now this one I feel very good about. Mark and Greg are found in a catatonic state on Sunday afternoon because our workplace turned our free cafeteria into a cafeteria where you now must pay to get even the slightest ration. And Greg and I will not be paying, and there's nowhere to walk and get food, so we'll just be found in a rough spot by the Sunday evening. Yeah, I'm not like a big man. But if I don't, and Mark knows as well, if I don't have my three regular meals, I'm used a useless person and that could that could happen. Yeah, yesterday was the first day this this new policy broke out. I did drive to uh Tacos Porfevour after work and had a burrito, but it was the timing was all off. It was like two pm by then. My predictions about Bengals Chiefs, let's go Joe Burrow here getting three touchdowns and beating the Chiefs for the third straight time. Joe Burrow owns Kansas City after this one. I think it's gonna be a shootout. And I do think the Bengals find a way to win this game, and that the Chief's defense has been waiting to fall apart against a great quarterback like Joe Burrow. Now you know what, you know what I'm picking later Claibon on game debut, I'll take that. I'll take Patrick Mahomes in that one. Also, for those wondering why we're wearing all black, it was the huddle news that mark Yeah, well precisely. Yeah, you can catch Patrick by the way, and myself on game debut, we make picks with Rachel Banetta and Cynthia Freeland.
