Chiefs hang on to defeat Ravens, Belichick’s Caleb Williams criticism, Who wins: Eagles or Packers?

Patrick Mahomes and Chiefs hang on to beat Lamar Jackson and the Ravens [Music] did you know Nationwide is so much more than a great insurance company they're one of America's largest financial services companies like how I'm more than just quarterback pton Manning I'm also meditating [Music] Manning for your insurance and financial needs Nationwide is on your side Nationwide Investment Services Corporation member finra Columbus Ohio live from New York it's the show that's preparing you for one of the most ridiculous 20 minutes that we've ever done and you've ever seen it's the first hour of first things first today bro I I wrote this one special I I lifted our our our ban on homonyms today to no I I that that is good I'll give you that to no that is good I didn't like it but you know what it worked you don't like that to no all right meanwhile the new sound from Bill bellich that makes us think Titans over Bears H Caleb struggles little inaccurate upset alert adjacent and finally well I kind of gave it away it's the return of the hottest segment in all of sports it's upset alert uh with a closing act of Nicks pick oh yeah sponsored by DraftKings now W excuse me wow we got cut sponsors also some new news Nick right Kevin Wilds Chris you owe me $100 I did end up putting that derck Henry over for you you said it was an obvious bet and that's how we got that draftking sponsorship by me parsing through that Derrick Henry bucks but yeah Brew he sent me his betting slip he did make the bet it was $1 he bet $1 hey I'm in the game though uh but right now we start with game-winning touchdown unlikely Isaiah likely's toe too long after missing backto back touchdown passes Lamar connected with likeley in the back of the end zone for an almost touchdown 10 toes down finally bit your bro it very true Chiefs win 2720 here's Lamar and momes take a listen I thought it was a touchdown but I still think it's a touchdown cuz it looked good from my angle on the sideline um but then the first view you saw you could see the the cleat he's got to wear white cleats next time that's that's my that's my advice for him okay do the Chiefs get lucky and Lamar still thinks it's a touchdown still thinks it's a touch see the video at that point all right before I answer this question I want to ask brw an honest question because Brew is an honest and honorable man I do not trust had the Ravens won this game were you going to come out here with a sandwich and soda pop and pomp in circumstance word or were you going to be say it's week one take it easy just be that's a fair question you want me to be honest yeah you were you were sandwich poop Jord glasses you were going to have these purple Jordans custom made you do and Brew look and you were going to have this six foot sandwich these were all prepared for brew had the Ravens won we're dropping a sandwich from the rafter custom Ravens Jordans so under that under those aices please indulge me for the next moment or so greatwich Kevin Wilds what's the question again do the Chiefs get lucky I thought I was in zone ABS 100% yes oh wow they got lucky they are so lucky that one of their biggest Rivals has a quarterback who can't hit Z flowers wide open in the end zone They are absolutely so lucky that Justin Tucker ever since he started practicing kicks from the goal line instead of the 35 is the worst kicker from 50 plus in football he's now missed six of his last seven has hit one in the last two years they are so lucky and who could have seen this coming that Baltimore's new defensive coordinator seemed to have some issues getting plays in miscommunication blown timeouts busted coverages they are so lucky that Baltimore the fort 14 and three Juggernaut from last year looked at their roster this offseason said you know what it'll get us over the top 30-year-old running back with 1,200 carries that's what we need and they are so lucky that Lamar Jackson spent his off season thinking about running and not throwing and we saw that on full display last night and last but not least Brew even the luckiest of them all need good friends and they are so lucky they have have one of the greatest friends in the sports Universe in the Buffalo Bills drop the banner what what amazing gift givers the Buffalo Bills are at some point hold on drop the other one Christina that's fine we'll get to those in a moment you know what week one the first the they're lucky because the Buffalo I don't know if the banners will come or not but we tried n different ways to drop the band we've never got right now the whole thing might come down so don't worry Christina I'll take care of it later ban night the the Buffalo Bills gave the can City Chiefs the gift of Patrick Mahomes the most talented quarterback ever and are now giving them the gift of the fastest player ever they traded them momes they traded them Isaiah or Xavier worthy so yeah they're lucky they're lucky that all those things happened winning yesterday wasn't luck and I know that in 4 months when we're talking about this game Brew people will say oh and they were you know the Chiefs it was a toe away from win losing that game when no it was a toe away from the Ravens needing a coin flip of a two-point conversion and none of it would have happened if their quarterback could have hit any of his wide open receivers in the end zone but that is what it is so yeah I guess they got lucky so Brew wanted me to ask him a question yeah don't honestly don't worry about the banners I think this is not by accident go ahead how are you feeling Brew I'm feeling like of all the places I lived growing up oh why couldn't Kansas City have been one of midsize Midwest Town that's right up my alley that is my Lane yeah then I could have laid claim to the Chiefs just like Nick but seriously I am disappointed I am obviously frustrated I'm even exasperated oh wow wow and you know what else I'm emboldened I am emboldened oh my goodness you see I got the purple tie on you cannot embolden I'm about to explain to you just how embolden I am it's not supposed to be easy there's supposed to be heartache there's supposed to be times where it just looks like hopeless there's supposed to be seven P Kansas City Chiefs are an excellent team they are a dynasty they are the Boston Celtics to Isaiah Thomas they are the Detroit Pistons to Michael Jordan they are Tom Brady to pton Manning it ain't supposed to be easy all right however you expect to lose everything because the Ravens lost the game of inches by an inch by an inch if you're going to lose Nick this is how you lose if you had told me what's the best way if the Ravens are going to lose this game What's the best way I would have said on the last play of the game by an inch now I know it wouldn't have been guaranteed they had to go for two but the last play of the game by an inch I told you yesterday all the momentum Kansas City had going into the game defending Super Bowl champions in Kansas City Banner night less roster turnover less coaching staff turnover all of that in their favor plus their their roster is better than it was a year ago and the Ravens go in there and take them to the last play of the game the Ravens are supposed to be better than them not this year they're not well I me to me they are and I'm sticking by but here here's what I you brought a little bit of it up cuz it's not just that they played them tough and it went to the last play it is this if I'm the Ravens I'm looking at that film I'm looking at that game and saying self inflicted but that's who they are at what point what point brw do that just become the mark of an of a undisciplined I think John Harbaugh is a good coach and I think Zack or is a rookie coordinator and I think they've got all season to get it together and they will look at cuz selfie if I lose a game I rather lose it for reasons I can control and correct than by the other team just manhandled us I'm serious look at this La Lamar's last possession which we'll get into he missed two wide open because that's who he is no that that's not who he is I agree he's not a great Pastor I've said he's an elite Runner he's not a great passer he's a good passer Nick you know every quarterback in the NFL could make that throw to Z FL including him and I believe next time he will the likely throw he could have should have made too here's the one to Z I mean I mean but Lamar said he wasn't even throwing to Z Lamar says he was throwing to bait right either way it's no whether you believe him or not it's it's a bad play by him but I it's a play he will make more often than not that's correctable the throw the likely correctable how about penalties how about four illegal formations cuz I got a lot of info here four illegal for formations you know what w correctable how about a costly roughing the passer how about hold on hold on roughing the passer Nick the roughing the passer penalty right there it would have been third and 20 and I I think that's a shift shap call to be honest I mean his momentum he's going right there but I I do think they got away I think Smith got I mean his arm got him in the face but still that's a correctable call that Chang it hold on from third and 20 all right it would have been third and 20 from the 28 of of the Ravens to First and 10 from the they are I well they better they going to change it I'm if I'm looking at that film and I'm the coaching staff I'm like we will change these things they had all you did this kind of yesterday you had all to change it and they did it again we buying that that's who they they better change it do they want a championship they can change can I ask if you're buying this is who they are which is they no no no I'm going to that that they are exactly what Lamar year ago said they were and now last night reverse course which is yeah that's our Krypton tonight and yesterday when he was asked about the Kryptonite comment he was like no that's not my kryptonite because here's the deal since you don't like him saying that well here's what I I I don't really care about what he says I care about what happens which is the Ravens are one team when they play anyone and another team when they play the Chiefs which dust if we can show the time leading or time trailing uh over the last 20 games the Baltimore Ravens NE they lead the whole game against everyone and never against Kansas City never so I would argue quickly that I just feel totally differently than Brew about of all the ways to lose this was the best I actually think this was in many ways the absolute nut low worst way you can lose which is you are thoroughly dominated throughout the game give yourself a glimmer of hope and then lose an excruciating heartbreaking fashion you Trail the whole way gained them by a 100 yards can I ask honest honestly Brew once the Chiefs tied it up after the Ravens opening drive and the Chiefs opening drive touch 77 right both were impressive at what moment from then forward if I would have called you would you have said oh yeah I think the Ravens are winning at what point in the second they weren't winning they were down so I never would to say they thought they were going to win I still I still thought they had a chance they were within 10 points or less the whole time so the but so the chief were in control here's what the ch and this was another thing that's correctable the worthy touchdown not the Run that's a that's just a flat out great play the 21 yard run this is correctable it's one of the best defenses in the league it's one of the best defenses in the league making a blown coverage you know what the Chiefs had I'm going to tell the three touchdowns the Chiefs had that's a blown Play That's correctable All Right were these touchdown runs just spectacular obviously they you're going to make great plays the other tou down was like I said the rough in the passer that would have probably ended in a field goal cuz it would have been third and 20 from the 28 they give them first and 10 from the 14 and and and and that mattered because the defense was playing the defense held them to 27 points no but held them to two field goals one in two possessions where they started in great field position once from their 14 y optimistic Lamar fumbled oh I'm I look all of that is correctable including the two defensive timeouts in the third quarter okay let's talk about Lamar now uh skinny Lamar said he wanted to be faster and he was quick to take off once the Chiefs started pressuring him uh 122 yards on the ground 273 yards in the air he did lose a fumble uh first half though not great uh 105 passing yards here's the odd one. n air yards per pass n less Le than less than one 16 passes in this game at or behind the line of St just odd it wasd you don't think that was odd I mean they yeah go ahead I'm sorry were you impressed by Lamar no I wasn't either I so listen I with this the our banners got screwed up today apologies and I don't even know if you can see it but that last Banner there was supposed to be the one we drop here and it pains me to do it oh it's Lamar and hard it's Lamar and James Harden it's the Spider-Man Meme and Brew you know you know that once upon a time I was maybe James Harden's most vocal Defender you thought he was the best player the best player to never win a ring and I thought he was somewhat unfairly maligned I was like you know you can't be this great in regular season and then eventually water will find its level I'm not going to be Fooled Again it they are both unique players that no one in league history has been exactly like them either one they both are first Hall of Famers yes they are both MVP or MVPs repeated they are both iconic and they are both wholly and entirely unreliable in the biggest spots it doesn't mean you'll never come through but it means you are a fool if you say I know they're coming through I trust them to come through and yesterday to me was the full Lamar Jackson experience you have on the plus side these Dynamic runs and back breaking runs it feel it wasn't back breaking this game but they can be the third and 80s running around these scrambles a couple oh this play is dead this play is dead oh that's a 50- yard touchdown the Isaiah likely play in the you know those plays that was a and then a bunch of checkdowns to Nowhere deep balls that have no chance missed layups and really questionable decisions on putting his body at risk when running the ball so I just I my fear doesn't lie to me how I feel watching these games is a DieHard Chiefs fan someone that bets money on the games grw up in Kansas City so you can tell me it's unfair this shouldn't be the ranking but I have watched the Chiefs play Joe burrow I am more worried I've watched the Chiefs play Josh Allen I am more worried you're going to hate this Wilds but Brew is with me I have watched the Chiefs play Justin Herbert I was more worried the Chiefs haven't played CJ stoud yet I think I'll be more worried I'm not worried when I'm playing Lamar I'm just not and so I no I was not I know he had almost 400 yards I was not impressed do you was not worried no cuz you love Lamar no I I love Lamar but I wasn't impressed by this performance I also thought bruan just put this in your I'll give you another question it felt like he wanted this game to where he was acting it was almost laes in the Super Bowl when that was the last game of the guy I know but that's what it felt like he like I need this game badly I'm going to leave it all on the field I have to do everything I'm going to take off I'm going to lower my shoulder he's really going for it the fact that he came up short well my thought though you're emboldened I was disappointed he ran terrifically he verified what we've said and what I've said he wants to run this year that cannot work that you I agree even even the plays where he didn't I mean obviously low in his shoulder he won't last more contact than Derrick Henry yeah no he won't last that way but even the plays where he didn't do that he just I just don't think he can run this much cuz he was running into a lot of traffic and he was great I do think overall he I mean it was like you said it was you got both you got a lot of both he was great in a lot of ways he kept them in the game he he I mean some of the passes he made like you said likely couple other passes plus the running it reminded me now it wasn't as good as jayen Herz in the Super Bowl remember Jaylen well hold on hold on listen hear me out when jayen threw for 300 ran for 70 it wasn't as good as that but it reminded me of that because Jaylen was great but lost them the game to some degree when he had that unforced fumble that Nick bolt and return for a touchdown Lamar was great in a lot of ways but lost them the game when he couldn't hit Isaiah likely or Z fler in that last not think any point oh I I I do I do I thought the weight and it's different it's always going to be different with him he's not an elite pastor we all know that he's a good P now yesterday wasn't even good A lot of times right that's what but his running that's if if it however it works running worked and he kept them in the game and gave them a chance to win against the two-time defending champion who is better this year he also he also made the exact same mistake on the exact same spot of the field that he made in the AFC title game which is let Chris Jones it was maybe a Mino no it was Chris Jones I think the AFC title game get around and strip sack him like that is I understand that's a blown I understand that right but that's awareness that is like sometimes but that happens I mean that's always been a challenge yes you I I agree and so I just I I I did not think he was great yesterday I thought he had some awesome moments and overall if we were giving a grade I'd have give him a c for the game as a I would have given him at least a b okay uh Chris Bard not the only person emboldened uh by the loss Isaiah likely sounded more confident Brew take a listen I say this is probably the worst game we going to play all year so if this is the best that they got I mean good luck in the postseason okay brw look as much as I like the Ravens I I want them to verify my pick of them winning the Super Bowl some of the stuff they say is just crazy like Lamar and and I may I'll leave it out there that maybe he didn't see the replay roquin Smith also said he thought it was a touchdown to likely yeah if they saw the replay and they say that you just can't say that because it obviously was not a touchdown as much as I wanted it to be I like the fact that they're not bowing they're not going to Kiss the Ring of the Chiefs I like that they put on their pants one leg at a time just like us I like that but when you talk this way you got to back it up if you don't back it up it looks crazy and so they have to start backing it up I'm going to give them I'm going to believe that they can but you just to his credit it does feel like bulletin board material but he has a point last year the Ravens started slow against the Texans and then they really turned it on their last 11 games they went 10 and one how' the Chiefs do from for game one to the end of the year did they get better or they stayed the same did the Chiefs play their worst game no I don't think that I don't think not their worst did the Chiefs play P did the Chiefs Peak at the end of the year idiotic statement by him but I'm saying they got they say hey we got not every team goes 10 and one and increases their points of no that you're 100% right wild I my point is Justin Reed was on kadam show today and was asked about this and he was like I hope everyone's worst game of the year is week one he's like the way it's supposed to be he's like it's supposed to get better and better and of all the teams to be like H see what they look like come to play off with the two-time defending but by the way this to me is part and parcel of an immature team Lamar's saying I still think he scored and then later in the press conference being like yeah the there a bunch of calls that killed our big momentum killed our drives little that came a little bit from Harbaugh okay exactly they did makees which we'll get to roquan later Ran's quotes about momes and then also about we should have won uh the left tackle who kept getting the penalties saying saying you know where have we ever seen this before it's like I don't know to the Chiefs last year in the exact same spot in the exact same situation I I just think it's an immature team I also think obviously bring me the damn bullets got to go on the board I mean here I mean this is it's full well it's very interesting you say that Brew it is full and we have made an executive decision oh wow this is the offseason bulletin board we now have the regular season bulletin board I like that and we got plenty of room for Reaction to the Ravens game plan to beat KC it good luck in the playoffs says Isaiah likel okay buddy thanks we now have plenty of room there this one's done the other one's being built out thanks to the Ravens might not be the last time you see that today pretty good uh Coach man jeie did not like the Ravens game plan that's next here on FS1 in SiriusXM we're going to eat the sandwich looks delicious it looks really [Music] good hey guys it's Nick Wright and I love to travel whether I'm heading out for work vacation or maybe just dropping into Kansas City to see a Chief's game or go to our annual parade I'm always looking for the best places to stay and that's why I turn to Airbnb anytime I stay in an Airbnb I'm reminded how great of an idea it is to Airbnb your own home while you're away maybe you yourself have stayed in Airbnb before and thought you know what I could easily turn my space into an Airbnb now that football season's back lots of fans are going to be traveling to catch the game in your local city you could Airbnb your home or extra room and make some extra money while people are in town for the game whether you use that money for ticket kids to go cheer on your favorite team or for something else entirely your home might be worth more than you think find out how much at airbnb.com host brand new FS1 lineup pretty much excellent from 8:00 all the way through speak which is really cooking uh so check us out if you get a chance yeah it's been pretty good uh right now Lamar said he wanted to run coach 395 total yards 122 hard yards on the ground which featured Lamar taking hits like he was Derk Henry it's unwise that was the bad one Henry meanwhile had 46 yards an early touchdown but then disappeared and Brew out $100 because I did put that over on 65 yards coach did you love the Ravens game plan no I didn't love the Ravens game plan and and we we sat here yesterday we and we' sat here throughout the offseason we talked about the AFC Championship game we talked about the fact that they only ran the ball with a running back six times and and how that that formula wasn't working it didn't work it it shouldn't be what they what they use moving forward and then we go to last night and what happens they throw the ball 41 times okay so they throw the ball 41 times but really they were trying to throw the ball 51 times because he scrambled 10 times so in his career and strip sack so let's call it 52 but we could throw 52 times so now we're we're at 52 times so he threw the over or attempted 40 40 or more th uh passes last year one time and it was in week 13 of the season and here we are in week one of the season and we're going to go 52 times over the course of his career he's attempted it six times and he's at 500 okay they're at 500 when he doesn't when he's under that they're they're at 700 so now with a makeshift offensive line that's unfair with a with a unsettled offensive line and a center that missed most the camp you're going to drop back to pass 51 times okay you've got you've got Derrick Henry you're going to give him the ball 13 times you're going to get in a bunch of open formations which tells the world that you're passing instead of in closed formations with some threat of Derrick Henry running and building some play action off of that and and I I just I I don't get the thought process and maybe maybe the the whole idea is he's going to become a great pastor this year and and I mean we tried that in the AC championship game and and now we try it again last night we see what happens and then all that being said you've now got six quarterback driven runs which I'm okay with but the type of runs where he's taken the hits that he's taking and when he's scrambling and taking the hits that he's taken it h how long do you think he's going to be able to sustain this it's it's it's completely unsustainable and at some point during the course of the Season Lamar's unfort going to going to just take the wrong hit he's going to take the wrong hit it's it's the NFL everybody's big everybody's fast and as big and strong and as fast as he is when you're letting your Marquee franchise guy get hit that much it I I don't get it and well Co I just don't get it we all see that he can't keep taking these hits so what do you think they're thinking I mean because that nobody sits here and says that's what we're gonna do for 17 games in the playoffs well when you hand the ball off only 13 times and I get it his average wasn't great he was at 3.5 yards a carry you you can keep giving him the ball and eventually Derrik can be the type of back he is and and he's going to get stronger as the game goes on and I know it wasn't a perfect situation and they were they were behind at some points and and at some point in the game you do have to go to a pass first mentality but but that and to come out of that game with that number and and and to have so many open formations when you've got a don't know if they did one hard cell play action coach wanted it the first play of the game coach is sitting next to me he's like here it comes he was so rooted so hard for Baltimore right in my own house and he and he just all game is wanting them to be in tight have Derrik Henry and maybe a fullback there as well play AC a 300b fullback and play action and that's uh you when you go deep instead it did feel to me Brew like you could have if you were watching it and paused it right before the snap guessed Pass Run you would have any of us would have been 90% based on the form you got a bunch of open edges you've got two really talented tight ends you've got a gigantic fullback you've got a gigantic back you've got a quarterback that that can run the ball we all get that but why not why not give the illusion of run and and and and layer it with runs as opposed to open everything up which was a formula that hasn't worked and and you know you're 25% less likely to win I was surprised at how Henry wasn't in the game nearly as much as I expected like they had a lot of Justice I know he didn't run a lot he only ran once but catching the ball out of the back field and to your point Henry even if he wasn't running he could have been a decoy because Nick said when he was in it was pretty much he's getting the ball and when he was out you knew they were passing and so they have to figure out cuz Henry hasn't played with quarterback like Lamar obviously Lamar hasn't played with that type of running back who's a Bell cow like you said I was not right I I was not surprised at the three yard gains for Henry cuz that's kind of what he does and then he breaks one as he wears you down so in the third or fourth quarter he might break one but they never really gave him a chance with just the 13 car so they got to figure out how to maximize Lamar and Henry together which may not be easy but that's the what they have to do how much of this I'm kind of throwing you in Aly do you think is Lamar kind of shrinking in the moment which we talked about it or bad play calling and how much of it is the chief's defense saying ah we kind of figured out what the Ravens do and I'll just give you Mark Andrews had two games last year no excuse me one game when he had in the teens receptions he was two catches uh for 14 15 yards last year last night two catches for 14 yards so like all right let's bottle up Mark Andrews and see what this offense is and it's not much and listen and likely ended up picking up the slack there I yeah I mean I think the chiefs were just flatly not afraid of the Ravens passing deep and I think that the Ravens they were giving them the the short passing Lamar was taking it but that's not really my problem with any of this the Derrik Henry stuff I mean I hate to say classic one about that's not a classic one that I said yesterday hold on classic one instantly correct that as far as him getting 65 yards at the end of the first quarter it would look like he was going to and then they would be trailing go away from the run and he wouldn't get there classic one t now that's first of all second of all yeah well for the season we'll see um it I'm I'm more concerned can we just show the play that I think sums it up if Lamar carried the ball 16 times I think he took 14 big hits this is he's five yards from the first down marker here the first Down's at the 45 he's at the sideline I brew I thought it was like psychotic behavior by Lamar I thought he was an initiating was we Lamar early in his career one of the things we would say is I you never Square him up he doesn't take those big you know what I mean even though he's running so much he's moving he's all those things he in this game it felt like he was trying to send a message and deliver punishment and I I I think he took a big hit 14 of the 16 times he ran the and sometimes guys get that way where where they they get so focused on sending some sort of message so he wants to send the message about how tough he is how determin is which is great and and you love him for his competitiveness but at some point you have to you have to almost save the guy from himself and that's where you take that situation out of his hands and you hand the ball off and and I'm not taking anything away from from from the way that he ran but it it's just not sustainable and it's not good business for the for the Ravens over the long term it just isn't when he said they're not his Kryptonite which we know he said years ago that they are at that time it was a different point in his career and the Chiefs he's young nobody's really harping on he's got to win he's got to win the Chiefs aren't who they were they had one Super Bowl not two so it's not the pressure now he's feeling the pressure like we got to get over to hump the Chiefs are this evil empire and so that's why he shouldn't say there is Kryptonite back then it's just a flipping comment that what didn't mean as much as it would now all right let's head to the fourth quarter third and three Mahomes scrambles for the first gets out of bounds but shoved by ran then henders shot comes to Ran's defense ran didn't like any of it take a listen oh he he flopped uh yeah he flopped uh that's why the referees didn't call it it was a great call by a great no call by the ref but uh whoever 88 is I don't know who he is but he Bill Belichick has some criticism for Caleb Williams better watch watch himself he he did he did get a little slick push was there somebody on the sideline that pushed you as well yeah whoever number 88 is I have no idea who he is but I'll see him when I see him uh all right so the Ravens three times on Patrick Mahomes hit him dirty that was dirty the the one that did get flagged was wildly dirty when he was out of bounds and Marcus Williams Dove at his ankles and that was the offsetting penalties and then the roughing the passer I don't think was dirty it was just it was it was rubbing the passer but regardless that wasn't a flop which means sorry the board I I mean listen ran Josh we need the board I mean that's You Callin saying Mahomes is Flopper that's what you're saying again coach you weren't here first segment the the board appears to be full this is the offseason board we now have transitioned to the regular season board and it is populating quickly with Ravens ran Smith Mahomes flopped get out of here ran I respect you as a player but give me a break the Ravens embarrass themselves yeah the board's in rough shape we will get Bill Bel on Caleb not speaking of embarrassing themselves hey Bill maybe cut down on six media jobs and start watching tape H he's got eight start watching some tape watch watch the tape us great bill bellich on the CW one of his many jobs saying pump the brakes a little bit on Caleb take a listen so what you're saying is coach we can't plan a parade because Caleb was so accurate in the preseason well it wasn't accurate it was 10 for 20 yeah it's like you didn't watch the 20 throws come on there's a reason he's excited it's 20 throws Chad he buzzed through them and you got to think how good the 10 were that were completed the extended plays weren't that good there was a couple highlight plays they weren't that good there be Nick is saying thank you listen I think Ryan CL sarcastic second best person on TV talking about football since 2003 here's the graphic nobody has won their number the no number one pick has won their debut Kyler came the closest he tied and well then I guess we know who your upset alert's going to be you're going to be riding with the fighting will Levon since that history can I just say something I I've thought long listen I might change oo this is and Shout Out Ryan Clark who's excellent and Chris Long who's excellent oo obviously and bich will learn um the but here's the deal you can be listen you can be as annoyed as me as you want but the guy who hated media forever I can't say maybe he has a little rough around T though that's n Bill bich drafted 12 quarterbacks uh after Tom Brady and the three best are jacobe brette Jimmy Garoppolo and Matt Castle uh nothing makes me happier than Bill bellich not believing in Caleb this is the same GM who could have gone straight from Tom Brady to Jordan love and instead was like no I'll trade out of that pick and pick up the 71st pick of the draft uh the same GM who with Brady at having a year left was like oh that kid from Louisville Lamar Jackson do anything with him no I'll take the wrong Georgia running back and Sony Michelle the same GM who who drafted yeah who was like you know what we need to spend a mid- round pick on a quarterback during Brady's Prime and with Dak Prescott on the board took jacobe brassette so D pres you're mad that Dak Prescott was overlooked I'm saying that if you were drafting a quarterback and you have him or jacobe and you're like jacobe is more my type then you know what maybe Caleb just isn't your cup of tea that's fine I think Bill belich is brilliant a lot of things quarterback evaluation has not been proven to be one of his strengths and Coach I I'm very curious what you think about this drafted a lot of quarterbacks coach I think that uh when you move on from Tom Brady when you when you did and he goes and win a Super Bowl that's probably not the best that's another quarterback evaluation thing well then also can't go to commercial fast well I mean it it did happen and there was some talk that they wanted to move on from Tom gar to go to garoo and that got that got trumped by by the owner which in retrospect was a really good yeah if Robert Craft was trash and K here's what I'd say about what I I'm not going to think for Bill but I'd imagine just like most people when you see something in Should the Steelers start Justin Fields over an injured Russell Wilson? the preseason against the twos and threes you don't want to get too excited about it and if anything you want to downplay the hype as opposed to you know magnify the hype like some people do and I'm sure that's that's his perspective on it but there is some Credence to what Nick says about the history of quarterback evaluation by and really Tom was a quarterback that was late in the sixth round and if you thought that he was going to be Tom Brady you probably would have drafted him number these are all just facts from a man who was there four minutes of the worst television what that was just terrible what he said he wasn't wowed by KB's throws he went 10 for he was pretty accurate though if you look at the passes there were a few that were dropped there were a lot of them were accurate oh not his fault then 10 for 20 sorry you should have seen ma Jones's numbers CU MC Jones had the highest ma Jones one of only first round pickup quarterback guess what the last two rookies to go to the uh playoffs were CJ strad and M Jones you don't like CJ St keep you're going to keep dying on the MC Jones Jones is doing a great job in New England oh that's right w wow you talk about Supporting Cast is Supporting Cast like Caleb Supporting Cast in Jacks I'm Ru against Caleb I like Caleb friend I got to root against him sorry Titans 5 three you're about 8 minutes away from the hottest segment in all of sports it's upset alert and then the debut of Nick's picks it is a hot hot segment coach I hope you have your upset alert I don't I don't like that graphic I don't like being on there twice Steelers at Falcons 1:00 on Fox Kirk's Achilles is healed Russell's calf is not limited in practice so Justin Fields just getting a majority of the snaps through it's not good for you at all should the Steelers just start Justin over Russ it's terrible I'm going to surprise you guys yes hold on but first are you going to resend your Victory lap and your sungasses and all of your I earned the position he rightfully won the job did he though yeah he did he starting week one well he's hurt I mean here's what I if if I'm the Steelers was named the starter so yeah he right he earned he won the job over Justin if I'm the Steelers though I go to Russ and I say look we want you healthy for the entire season all right this Cal strange is just you know re resurfaced we don't want to put you out there and when you can reag gravate it and this thing could become a season long or half Russ doesn't seem like he thinks he can play he talked today and they asked him do you plan to start and he's like we'll see how I feel well they should say that to him and then say so we're going to sit you and this is the perfect opportunity to see what Justin Fields can do okay so what if Justin Fields is good then you keep him as a starter and Russell like good news I'm healthy if if Justin plays well and they win I think you keep it and I think Tomlin will I I I'm question whether Tomlin will start Fields because I think Tomlin gave Russ the job because he thinks Russ is better and has a they win can have a better chance of winning with Russ and so if Russ can play I think Tomlin will go with Russ I think he should go with Fields as kind of a try out and see what he can do yeah this isn't Denver Russ they don't have to go and say like hey your C's bothering you he want you for the whole season anything like that this like at this point both guys have a a viable argument for why they should be the starter I would imagine that they have a significant package for Justin Fields even if if Russ plays and and if Russ's calf isn't where they needed to be then fine they move they they go with Justin and see what happens you think he should play at all but I don't think this is one of those situations where you have to necessarily baby Russ because you're wor he's not going to play guys about how he's going to react these are two guys both stars in the league would say to him I don't want you we we don't want Upset Alert! you to play because this is a this is a perfect opportunity I hear you Russ hasn't meant anything to the Steelers but it's a perfect try out for justice I think I I I think this is being looked at from the wrong lens I think Russ has gone to Pittsburgh said I don't think I can play guys I'm hurt he brought to the their attention my calf tightened he then got Imaging the Imaging came back clean he then today was asked are you starting Sunday and he's like well see how I feel I think Russell Wilson understands he has about three more games of bad tape available to him before he's done and I do not think he is going to play at less than 100% but you don't think he's faking no no no no no no no definit I just I don't think the job is yours he would have Seattle Russ would have played yeah yes I I I that's what I think I think that no I think but I also don't think this is a situation where the Steelers are going to be like Russ we want to sit you and he's like no you have to let me play I think he doesn't feel right like I think he is hurt I think he's an older aging player who's been hurt a lot lately he's 36 years old quarterback his cap which bothered him at the beginning training camp flared up now he's like guys I can't I again the way I read it I think he brought it to them like I might not be able to go Sunday all right coming up next hot to segment in all sports it's [Music] upset live from New York it's the show that has a 10- foot sandwich outside the set honestly it's a little bit of a burden at this point it's the second hour of first things first today a banner night for the Chiefs yeah repeat starting you're saying uh still still undefeated since the Christmas Day Mass 7 and0 6 and0 in the calendar year 2024 pretty good uh meanwhile Dak talking Super Bowl but first he needs to take care of the Browns and that's not easy but right now the Champs are back to back to back again well uh they dispatched to the Ravens on Banner night Mahomes nine yards shy of 300 had instant chemistry with Xavier worthy here's Patrick postgame we build all throughout the year and you can see rased just kind of picked up right where he left off last year Xavier made some big plays um and so it's just we're going to continue to build and building and hopefully get Hollywood back and uh see what this offense can really be okay here's where we at now we updated this graphic now 5- one against Lamar uh Nick were you happy with this performance I think this was a perfect scenario for the Chiefs not a perfect performance for momes but it was the perfect performance for momes and here's what I mean uh he looked sharp threw the ball 28 times 25 were exactly where he wanted them to be he had three misses it was 10 yards per attempt you know got had his Ju Just the second or the yeah the second touchdown of 20 plus air yards in the last two years was that one you saw that what I anticipated would happen which is that o that short over the-middle to rice and Kelce like I was talking about yesterday it was all rice not a lot of Kelce was there and that reporter was there and he had two awful mistakes one awful mistake and one almost awful mistake that will infuriate him that will keep him sharp for the Bengals game the pick at the end of the first half was terrible yeah and it was just a I know he got hit a little bit but it was unnecessary he was first down it was terrible and it the game the Chiefs could have really just not ended the game but Taken full control there instead the Ravens go down and get a field goal and then the play at the very end of the game was unnecessarily risky because it's fine if you just get sacked or go down keep the clock running but for him to make that mistake of that throw that gets tipped and could have been picked but to then make an unbelievable play to prevent the interception I if we can show the video prevent the interception and make the catch which again clock management wise was enormous it would have been Ravens ball with 220 in the two-minute warning instead it was Ravens ball with a minute 51 so if I were by Patrick Mahomes standards this is like a B minus game yeah but I'm I'm thrilled with that given what I think it sets the script for for the rest of the year well look I think the point you had made about Rashid I actually think he could have a Travis Kelce type year like he he was great underneath I mean and that's going to be open especially when they get Hollywood Brown it's going to be more wide open so yeah that that was one of the strengths of the offense to me um but coach I think a lot of the things the Ravens did were self-inflicted wounds that are correctable now if you want to say that's who they are well if you want to win the Super Bowl that can't be who you are and the head coach and the staff need to take care of it and stop they have to get the players to stop making these self-inflicted errors because and the Chiefs look good particularly the rice you know rice underneath but offensively their touchdowns one was a completely broken play the one the the pass to worthy that is that's correctable for the Ravens the Run by Worthy was just a great play that's just a great touchdown run but then the third the other touchdown where Pacho scored on a one yard run that if there's no rough in the passer call on the Ravens it's third and 20 and that likely ends in a field goal because the Ravens defense in the first half had kept them to two field goals one possession they started from the chief or the Ravens 14 after the I'm thinking of course that's a touchdown and so I just think the Chiefs got a few big plays one of blown coverage by the uh by the Ravens and so the Ravens I feel coach can look at a lot of these things and say okay we can correct the things that beat us and they're in our control it's not in the chief's control yeah the Chiefs definitely benefited from a new defensive coordinator and it looked like Baltimore has some things to work out well I mean I know we're classic one I'm just I'm just celebrating correct I know we're celebrating Worthy's gigantic catch where there's nobody within like seven miles of them mention great throw great catch against air so that that was good and then the team meeting on the reverse that wory had I think you know that was welld designed by the Chiefs but not very well defended on the other side of it and you're right the self inflicted wounds are are a problem and and Baltimore has these postgame proclamations where you know we're going to get him next time and he better not talk and I'm going to find him and all these things kind of like we heard after they were eliminated from the playoffs but you're right they they need it's it's a little bit less of that and more of fixing the the the errors that are preventing them from winning a game like this and and the self inflicted wounds are are they're killers and they're Killers against a team like Kansas City which no room for air which didn't have very much air and and even with Rice's catches I think they found something formally which got a nice match up they found wherever 40 was go after him that guy I thought he was a fullback playing one of those things that structurally really played out well and didn't seem like it got fixed very quickly and and to to the chief's credit they took advantage of it multiple times before it did get get addressed coach are you just narrative wise we've been having these little battle that you know it's still game one but you were impressed with the Chiefs I was impressed for the Chiefs Brew saying it's just a sloppy game that is going to change did you see how do you see this going out do you see you know what the Chiefs are also going to get better as the Ravens get better is the story headline of this the Ravens played sloppy or the Chiefs played great I don't I don't think that Chiefs played great but I think that's good news for the Chiefs I think the fact that they only average three yards a carry and still won the game like they did and scored 27 points that's good news the fact that Travis Kelce only had three catches and they still scored 27 points that's good news for them the fact that the left tackle who's a rookie was able to hold up pretty well against a formidable front and a front that brings a lot of different things to me that's good news as well however you opening game of the season is a very unique game because of everybody getting adjusted to it and a new defensive coordinator so it's I don't I I wouldn't probably put never a doubt on my forearm yet well that was last year and it's there forever um but well but let me but but there's a lot of encouraging things but here's the other thing and I'll just say quickly last year the biggest problem with the Chiefs and broo his credit was sounding the alarm about it in week one and I was poo pooing it and it you know oddly we kind of both end up being right I was right that they were going to be fine you were right that it was never going to get fixed with the receiver stuff I man I I don't know how you can't when you watch this game and it's like oh okay Xavier Worthy is going to be an impactful player I'm not saying he had a perfect game but he touched the ball three times two of them were 20 plus yard touchdowns it's positive and I listen I no one can defend Rashid Rice's offseason and if people want to say he should be suspended that is totally valid opinion I think he is going to be suspended it's just going to be next year you can take that up at the n not with me what is definitively true is I think and the broadcast to me exacerbated it he continues to be one of the more underrated guys in the league the way they talk about Z flowers who was taken in the same draft in the 20 picks ahead of Rashid versus Rashid rice we can show you their careers Rashid has been the better player he has more catches more yards more yards per game more yards per catch more touchdowns he is the more reliable player unfor unfor for him Nick is he's going to be greater down because of the quarterback that he playing with the other guys play with the league MVP I think the other gu playing with the league MVP but you know knows that the league MVP wasn't because of his I do think Z is better than if he were on the Chiefs I think Z would more than just okay so again like I said I think so the point I'm making whether we want to argue Rashid vers Z is the chief's biggest weakness was the receiving Corp they now have to me uh solid if not if we're ranking all number one receivers I think Rashid rice would be a below average number one receiver but that's just because the league is so deep at receiver and I think last year was like hopefully maybe he can be a number two you then have Xavier worthy who looks like that's G to work that's G to work and then we'll see what Hollywood does and so it's like oh all of a sudden that's at least a just call it League average reer foras city is the number one receiver Travis Kel correct and so and yeah so like I I didn't think it was a perfect game for the Chiefs oh my goodness you know what that sound means what it's time for a segment so hot my grandmother was in line at the airport told the TSA agent why I'm not flying the plane it's ups they try to they take your liquids coach it's week one of upset alert it's just a joke oh Brew is going first I I'm sorry I'm a little rusty on upset alert yeah too long writing that joke about your all right I was torn between my pick and I was all set to go with the Cowboys over the Browns which boring right I agree with that boring I still think they'll beat the Browns in an upset Nick you're not going to like it Titans wow ruin Caleb's debut you get to say you're Caleb guy any I got to say this about the Titan we'll see what the Titans are but I've said it several times coach they had an off season like they think they're about to make the playoffs I mean they go obviously defensively they go get Leger sne so Caleb's got to go against Sneed they go get Tony Pard who I like he played last year off a broken foot it I like it broken leg or whatever Tony Pard Calvin ritley Tyler Boyd and they already had DeAndre Hopkins we'll see if he plays like will Levis is still a question he might be pretty good what that offensive line is going to be really good too it's not going to be really good saying like they going to be better than worst you you said your whole defense was wor last they you's whole defense leaving in Derrik Henry was he was doing it behind this awful Titans offive line now Titans one guy seven overall and all of and hire the Callahan Father and Son Callahan they are going for I don't know what they're seeing but they're going for it and I think look Chicago is going to be so much emotion like that so many expectations it's going to be a lot of pressure on Caleb and everybody to perform upset love it at least listen three and a half points spread that'll be in our new upset alert standings that'll be worth 6 and a half points if we get it right yeah he's he had this long we have to it's very simple you get if you get the upset alert right you get three points and then you get bonus points for big of an underdog they are you understand so if they were a 10o underdog you get 13 points for getting it right if they're a one point Underdog you get four points for get right keep track there has to be Stakes attached to it and you know what what Happ the loser own segments all right coach you're upset well I'm I'm going to go with a young quarterback and my Young quarterback and my upset alert is I think Jaden is going to star in the bake show wow I like I like Jaden Daniels and the Washington commanders does love the commanders to beat to beat Tampa Bay and the newly newly wealthy or more wealthy uh Baker Mayfield who's going to be playing with that new contract and the pressure of the new contract and when you look at the commanders and you look what they they did offensively last year the Sam Howell 21 picks and 65 sacks it's it an absurd number it was it's a it's an absurd number that I think he can he can bring well down and then defensively look they they gave up the the third most passing touchdowns in the history of the NFL they gave up double the big passes of of the next opponent they they were the worst in almost every defensive category there should be significant progress there as well so I like them and can I ask a question I like both of these so I I don't necessarily dislike this pick I I'd be a little concerned about a team that gave up 65 sacks with now 165lb quarterback if that's going to work for him over the course of the season um the but he loves 120b wide receiv receiver yeah how many times davier R to get hit yesterday honestly never touch 210b quarterback that is fast as Lightning here's my here's my serious question though you might not see him when you run okay maybe here's my serious question Todd B's defense a good defense V and Company against a rookie quarterback does that not just rookie first start ever how much does that concern you I I it's a concern but I do feel that they'll do a good job of protecting him they'll do a good job of giving those gimme thr screens trying to balance the running game I don't I I can't imagine they're going to put him in a position where he's got to make a bunch of adjustments against against a multiple fronts and disguises they'll try to keep it simple early as he builds up and look if he just limits the errors this game's going to be Chief's great Nick alrti new offensive lineman for the commanders the best thing about upset alert is keeps you on your toes we're logically inconsistent ooh Caleb his debut very difficult probably will lose Jaden his debut hey you going to play probably win that's why I like it you never know what you're going to get but you do know this it's time now for the patani Phil of football to make his upset alert all this summer people were coming up to me they're like hey can I bother you for saying I said yeah said why they call you the Pani fi of football it's because you're covered with fur and living in a log I said no it's just a coincidence it's because I can predict the future and this one is hot special you may think oh you're in love with this team wild you always pick this team that's right because I believe in them sleeper team wake up Cardinals over bills in Buffalo wow Buffalo I can't believe it the mighty Buffalo Bills who last time I checked on their season opener checks notes lost to Zach Wilson yes gave the ball away three times after the entire Jets franchise organization in the Metro North Area was totally depressed Josh Allen says don't worry I'll cough him let you guys get the W could the same thing happen again he's not that good in open he's lost two of his last three opening games lost to the Jets last year beat the Rams that was a really good game remember that one and then lost to the Steelers finally I know what you're thinking such a dynamic quarterback though he can beat you with your arms beat you with his legs oh who you talking about Kyler Murray that's what I'm talking about Kyler once he got healthy looks great last three games of the Season yeah 72 yards 72% completion percentage what the heck is going on he's also airing it out 11 big throws and now you got Marvin Harrison Jr you can only have to throw the ball you can also run against that bills defense which wasn't spectacular Cardinals ran the ball a lot last year the Bills did not and I know what you're thinking hey Wilds have you checked out Arizona's run defense it was checks notes last in the League last year sure that being said I do think and I have no evidence to this I'll just put that out there I do think if you've got a rocket arm and you were playing a little bit conservative a little a little bit like Mahomes I want to have fun this year I want to air it out a little bit I want to throw the ball a little bit more I think that's what Josh Allen wants except when he looks around and says hold on Gabe Davis is gone stefon's gone that's half of my receiving yards and half of my receiving touch Downs I like Keon Coleman but also a little pressure on him trending on Twitter last night wasn't great because Bill's fans already mad that they TR sa you're worthy Keon colan you better no Keon Coleman's great but if you're not supporting him I wouldn't put that pressure on Cardinals over bills straight up this would be a nine and a half pointer three for the 16 yeah this even if everyone gets it you'll have a three-point lead on the te I hope we all get it I like I like like the idea of waiting it of course thank you coach time now for Nick oh yeah it is time now for Nick pick last year say it again you got a little taste of that don't you worry about me don't count another man's Pockets don't worry about that all right here's the deal here's the deal I making these picks on television for seven years five of the first five years in a row to start we had a winning record yeah last year we did not like the Chiefs we well except they won the Super Bowl but yes and then by the way yeah cuz I did do well in the playoffs but this year we turn it around we start with the shest thing which is the New England Patriots offense is going to be absolutely incredibly Dreadful oh is there any news laying 8 and a half don't care here's the question can the Bengals score 20 points if they can score 20 they will cover the eight and a half if they can score 17 they might if they score nine they could how dare you here's the the the New England Patriots organizationally has said We Love Drake may he might be the best player on the entire offense which is why it would be irresponsible to let him play a football game while the offensive line is like this all of these things are true I don't love what's going on with de Higgins or Jamar Chase I just don't think it matters you only need 20 points to beat the Patriots by at least nine Bengals laying eight and a half next you guys flirted with it they going to go with it the Cowboys are better than the Browns yeah yeah the the Browns both Packers vs Eagles in Brazil and Cowboys vs Browns preview their excellent tackles are on the injury report we'll see we know the Cowboys defensive front is going to be excellent just Shawn Watson's going to be under duress I'm getting points with the better team under duress sorry brw uh I'm getting points with the better team check the weather report clear skies in Cleveland so you don't have to worry about anything funny happening mucking up the game and so Cowboys getting two and a half they're going to win out right take it to the bank and lastly this line moved in my face overnight it was Los Angeles getting 3 and A2 now they're getting 4 and A2 Shawn McVey best coach in the league against the spread in week one six-1 straight up six- one against the spread with an average victory of at least nine points they we just saw these two teams play came down to the final moment it was one-point game also little too much Lions smoke I like the Lions but they are now they have gone from being undervalued by Vegas to overvalued by Vegas this is a field goal game I don't know who's going to win it I do know it's 24 21 27 24 whatever it is I'm getting 4 and a half delicious points give them to me take it right there laying 8 and 1/2 with Cincinnati getting 2 and A2 with Dallas getting 4 and a half with the Rams that's a 3 and 0 weekend to start the week wow nice okay excellent job Packers Eagles tonight in Brazil Green Bay trendy playoff pick trendy Super Bowl pick Eagles reportedly are done with their Supernatural funk that saw them lose six of their last seven including the playoffs now Brew if they lose this would be and do the math seven of their last eight so how bad would a loss be remember you're the person that said they were in a supernatural Funk and then said all of a sudden they were not in a supernatural Funk and they're a a lot of pressure for you tonight well they're playing the eventual NFC champion right so I honestly I think the answer to your question is it depends how they lose all right I think Green Bay is going to win okay I'm picking them that's my Super Bowl pick but um if they lose a close game and you know the offense looks pretty good I think they can withstand that I know it'll be seven of eight but they can withstand that if they get blown out and Jordan love just picks them apart then I think that's when serani is in trouble and then the following week they got uh who who they got a winnable game oh Atlanta actually but still very winnable game if they that's when serani is really in trouble and if they lose to Atlanta as well then his job is in trouble but I think a close loss coach they can withstand that and they can be all right so you think if they go 0 and2 he could actually be whacked that early seems I mean I know I don't know if it'll be I know it's a supernal funk but that's that's really well that's the thing too are they listless in this game against Green Bay like they were last year for the you know last six games I know they are very bummed out about where the game's being but there has been new video out some enthusiasm all I I do agree with you in the sense that if they lose it depends on how they lose and and things were so dysfunctional and and there was there was uh just lethargic and disinterested in all those all those NE negative adjectives that you can tie to the end of their season uninspired so if they if the any traces of that come up in this game or if the game does get out of hand or not even out of hand but let's say they're behind and you don't see that the fight through the fourth quarter that to me is is indicative of a bigger problem and it may not lead to him being fired after two games but it's probably going to be something that eventually leads to it you guys are talking I think kind of more abstract things which I think are smart I here's my concern if I'm Philly today uh so the Packers big move this off season was they changed out defensive coordinators they bring in Jeff Halle from Boston College evidently he ran listen I'm to act like I watch a ton of Boston College but everyone that's talked about is explained ran a lot of single high very aggressive defense there and that's what he's bringing there the word on the Eagles all off season has been uh Jaylen Herz can't handle the blitz that's what happened to them they got figured out they can't handle the blitz so are the Packers just going to say well you you lost six of seven games in part cuz your defense was awful but also in part because your offense got figured out we're going to make you prove you have a counter punch and by the way we're going to make you prove that either your Young Center or you Jaylen can call out the protections that's so I I I think Philly is one of the most overvalued teams by Vegas the general public and the media this year no one has properly explained to me why the supernatural Funk is over no one has properly explain to me why the defense which was bottom four across bottom five across the board last year is now going to be good like do I think it's going to be bottom five no but do I think it could improve to bottom 10 yeah I do no one has explained to me how they are adequately replacing Jason Kelce it's just like ah they're the Eagles okay we'll see now flip side is I think the Packers are a touch overvalued as well so that's why they weren't this wasn't one of my picks but I I think the Eagles are in significant trouble on a lot of fronts and if they play a bad football game today it's it they are under the most pressure of any team in the league this week to play well because of how last season Nick they did do a lot to address the secondary they did bring in Vic and and and Vic's impact isn't necessarily like Wade Phillips where Wade the first here it's always this gigantic jump but there should be a jump and there was a lot of dysfunction in terms of who was calling the defense last year then they made a change mid-season so I think having someone like Vic in there to give them to give them uh stability will will be valuable and on the offensive side who knows whether the change that offensive coordinator is is going to make a huge difference but you'd like to think it makes some all right Brew quick question before we move on to the Cowboys Xavier Worthy's debut we're going to discuss this later up here very impressive derck Henry kind of here where do you put saquon's debut oh um well certainly better than Derrik Henry not honestly right in the middle he's not going to do what Xavier worthy did I would say CMC ask right there well CC I was trying to te you upy had one outside run then caught you don't you didn't like no I like we got that's coming up he you brought up next segment's topic there should just been like hey Brew what do you think point he point some let's do Cowboys Cowboys Tom Brady's debut in Cleveland I'm just mad because I have the same question D locked in but also uh talking about a Super Bowl take a listen that's what motivates me on being head honestly is is to be the quarterback that that does it that wins it um I don't think that winning in any other place would be the same as is when to get here and so that is a number one it want to be here to be honest with you hello he's going to resign oh my goodness by the way not Bru got it happening today Wilds guarantees it happens literally in the next 48 hours this game kicks off in 47 hours and 55 minutes can happen might happen at halftime oh no well okay well that's that quote does not make you a week ago he was saying the owner the Uncle at the barbecue I don't listen to him now he's like I'm dying he's talked about being willing to go other places right he was talking about being willing to go play elsewhere now he's like I want to your commitment to being wrong I respect it think Jerry on Friday night that before the season starts like hey let's get in the office and iron out this contract what he think he's heading out to dinner and maybe enjoying the start you know this is can I I want to do something else because um I've heard a lot about how crippling the loss of Tony Pard is going to be I've heard a lot and I heard a lot about how impactful the addition of Derk Henry was going to be so I have a question for Chris brousard 14 carries for 49 yards that is what the Ravens running backs did yesterday do you think the Cowboys miserable wo begun running back room will out produce the Ravens running back room in week one cuz I do they they should okay they should I because I think one though what do you mean it's one great defense you you going to try to tell me you like the Cowboys running back rule better than the Ravens are the Cowboys going to throw the ball 51 times what I am what I am asking okay let's just go on yards per carry the Ravens running back room gave you 3.4 yards per carry yesterday the Cowboys running back room with everybody laughing at Zeke Rico D Duce vaugh do you think they will have against the best defense at home in football last year the that one I don't necessarily think is definitely going to happen right but if you just had to pick a side over or under under under but I want to hear from you whose running back room is best no I's the thing Cowboy I obviously the Ravens running back room's better unfortunately it's 2024 and the quality of your running back room rarely actually impacts winning it's really about all the different things like that's just not not running the football is important the quality of the running back room is Christian mcaffrey yeah he he is the exception he is the exception and you know why because he also can be really good catching the football um so yeah so you are surprised Dallas's Underdog I gave him as a pick wild were you not listening it's a new audience every 15 minutes uh yeah listen I think Dallas is going to win I think Brew thinks Dallas is going to win despite the running back room coach I don't think they're going to win I don't think they're going to win no I I like the bronze are you going to the game I think when we look at the bronze and the Cowboys last last year no I will not be there last year the Cowboys found a way to underachieve at the end of it and the and the Browns throughout the course of the Season found a way to overachieve and they lost Nick chub deshun Watson he got hurt early and wasn't really performing well and they still found a way to win 11 games and and go to the playoffs so you got to you've got to give them some credit for that and I I don't think there's been massive overhaul in their talent but I think there's been some positive additions there and I think there's been a significant Talent drain in Dallas that hasn't been replaced it's the NFL We There are we don't we're not judging teams by one gets a JV standard the Dallas Cowboys won 12 games last year and lost it played poorly in the first round of the playoffs the Cleveland Browns won 11 games last year and played poorly in the first round of the playoffs there is no world where you can say Cleveland had a better year than them now you can say you don't think you don't think that Cleveland overachieved losing Nick chub as early as they did losing their starting cour and and granted I don't know they got better Quarter walking through that door Joe flacko is not walking through that losing to Shawn Watson was I'm sorry one of the best things that happened to the Browns last year were overing despite the shot but okay so I the I think that Bigger story: Derrick Henry or Xavier Worthy? this game is very simple which is the Cowboys defense is still excellent that Browns offense is not is not going to be able to move the ball at all through the air against Dallas Deshawn Watson has not shown us he is even a top 20 NFL quarterback in four years so I just I don't think the Cowboys offense has to be great I don't think D has to be great what do you think the bronze will end up scoring like what what range do you think I think this is 20 to 14 I think it's something like yes I do I think I do not I do not buy a Cleveland team led by Deshawn Watson I don't think they do either which is why they initially had four quarterbacks and signed jamus Wiston I like Dallas in F game on the board oh yeah on the I mean I think they're going to win but it's on the board is an a game on bad loss will definitely be an effort a game against the Browns how many yards rushing for Rico D for you to apologize to his friends and family on Monday okay 100 100 yes okay 100 if he goes were 100 the no it's not going to happen but that's what it would take all make sure we have all of our gr I'd like to see dece do it but he won't all right coming up next Xavier worthy who coach all of a sudden said wasn't impressive listen let's get him can two debuts uh last night three if you want to count Travis Kel's haircut Xavier worthy and Derrick Henry two touchdowns for Xavier one TouchDown for Henry but only 46 yards Brew I did place that bet so you do owe me a $100 homes on worthy he's so cool Cal and collected like all the time like you would never even um see the excitement on him but uh I mean he goes out there and makes plays uh obviously um we want to continue to use him more and more um but I thought he had a great day today making big plays and big moments okay Brew what was the bigger story for you Henry or worthy this an easy answer to me worthy he won the game with his two touchdowns like so and and also he opened everything up for Rashi you know underneath and and even other players and the big thing for the Chiefs this year was we're getting back to the explosive offense cuz now we have game breaker speed and it's not just him it's also Hollywood brown but he's the key guy CU we know Brown has been like average throughout his career so far this guy could be special it's almost like I mean I'm not putting in tyreeks class yet but you know to me it's almost like we got that speed back and he was you know made good on it so it's I mean Henry obviously was disappointing but this is clearly it because he won the game he he literally won the game for him I I'm happy that he had two big plays and I think that's positive but literally nobody touched him on the run because there was but that's catch him he's so fast think they had angles you wide receivers on the Chiefs could have probably scored on that I I V show again show that Kansas City Chiefs and like three Ravens that are over there as he walks let ask this coach the second one it looks like he's Fair catching a punt so wide open that had nothing to do with his feet so you think so let me just ask you this because my answer is actually different than Bru but let me just ask you this so you think it's just pure coincidence that a Chief's team that had four touchdowns of 20 or more yards all last season this guy who also just by quincent happens to be the fastest player in the history of League had two in his first game you just think it that that anyone on the team could have done that anyone the team over there yeah but two Ravens had Ang no but what you're saying coach is it's a coincidence come on so it's a coin Nick when you see okay so look at this literally the whole is there he walks into the end zone now this on this pass there's nobody within 10 yard of but again let me just ask this question I agree with not have made that play okay I agree with I I agree with that I happen to think it's on the board that lining up across from the fastest player ever can lead to little nerves miscommunication what what are we doing what are we oh I I think that I think that I think that maybe he didn't even try to cover he the cover I would put on the board I might be most surprised by the Ravens defense I mean I know that's not one of our coach are you pessimistic about Xavier because I was like I put down Xavier worthy Rookie of the Year candidate now like moved up my board I I think it's I I'm happy that he made the plays that he did but I don't think that those plays were very contested I mean literally there was nobody within 10 yards of them on the catch that he caught the touchdown well that was I agree it was a blown coverage but the first one was Coach Co listen coach thinks Noah gry would have scored on that uh that's fine it's fine maybe 40 for the Ravens would have scored on it too juj would have scored on okay I disagree but that's fine but it doesn't matter there were so many guys over there blocking it doesn't matter because the bigger story is Derrik Henry and everyone knows it way I don't know because I I think people knew Xavier worthy was fast yeah and I think most people thought if he healthy and out there he'll be an impactful player maybe not we talked about it yesterday none of us thought he was this huge imp he had 47 receiving yards he had the two listen but Derk Henry I mean I hate to say it Wilds but you're always on hobble watch I'm not he's not on hob watch no he's on was hob watch no but he is on wash watch wash ni hold on Nick you know that was a typical like we said it no I was not surprised at all by the four yards three yards cuz again that's what he's done throughout his career then he pops it he's a 2025 you know carry a game guy coach I sat there coach is going to be in a rough spot cuz I sat there next to you the whole game watching that and I know you want them to run with Derrick Henry more that's fine did that to you look like vintage Dereck Henry when he had the ball well what was hard to evaluate is the formation that they were in that really wasn't the Vintage Derk Henry type of formations and and and in the 13 carries that he got with the long of nine with the long of nine it was it's a little bit inconclusive okay touchdown run Pi up a first down like short yeah listen Okay so if that's what he is he's a short yardage goal line back for the team that needs that the least of anyone in football great but I was told he was go his addition was a major difference maker for Baltimore you anticipate them throwing the ball 51 you know what I did anticipate though that maybe the 30-year-old running back with 1200 carries over the last handful of years might not exactly be the thing that gets you over the top save save this mockery of Derek cuz it's week one I'm not overreacting to week one it's not mockery I just said I'm on alert I I uh if if he had 200 yards BR if he had Future First Things First 200 yards it would not only be week one so when he has 46 yards it's just a data point that's all data point and when when worthy catches the ball when someone's covering them I I will what if no one can ever cover genuinely excited they're all just dat well if you just cut them free it's going to be hard to cover hold on I have to just coach maybe mad so now I have to go after one of his friends Rodney Harrison hey Rodney Harrison I got to do this Rodney Harrison on the pregame show Xavier Worthy's a little skinny guy he doesn't scare me there's no way they are three peating Josh for a third time the board I like Rodney Rodney harison Rodney Harrison on the board sorry got to do it offse bulletin board now we go to the real bulletin board right there Rodney Harrison I would not put Rodney Harrison on guess what Tak off I agree with you Nick should be on the board he's on the board no chance at a three he's a little skinny guy that doesn't scare the definition of the board why how can he not be on the thank you brew we have no sacred cows on this show just cuz he you know he's one of your guys sorryy M morning headlines next Bru favorite great watches but on the board time now unfortunately to reluctantly lift the show ban on pun and encourage Brew to flex the creative muscles he honed and toned while spilling ink at the gry lady it's Monday morning headlines we are just the opening ax swimming in a sea of puns so why don't you dive in can I just tell you I know this is Bruce segment and we're just the opening ax I feel like mine might steal the sh oh wow I got to see this reveal it Caleb becomes insta face of franchise rookie silences bellich that's pretty good come on it's pretty good it's not bad bich signed up for Instagram he called it insta face cuz he thinks it's cool to act like he doesn't know what it is like and insta face it's pretty good not bad not bad thank youbs came up with the whole thing I mean it's pretty good okay that that was very un Trend yeah mine classic it's not a classic one it's not a classic two is not a classic three it's a classic Brew please reveal Kyler [Music] flurry Murray and Marvin caus an avalanche in Buffalo I got the Cardinals feating the bills out right that was good that was good that was all right I want to see if you in
