start building in the cloud today live from New York it's the conclusion of predictions week and we have a surprise like well I'll be honest with you we've done similar stuff before but this one is extra special W I don't even know what it is no nobody does unless you're a zoologist I wouldn't trust your opinion on you didn't live animals wow stay tuned a falcon perhaps wow not a falcon bear definitely not a bear I bears are indigenous to New York State I did think about getting a bear in studio and then I realized I'd be terrified uh today is Dak done in Dallas we decipher his quotes brw is furious I still think I'm right meanwhile Travis Hunter you still think you're right I'm I'm pot committed Travis Hunter Heisman watch uh is he doing enough or is he actually doing too much oh kind of think both and finally again the grand finale of predictions week why one person here maybe more than one does not believe in the Chiefs three Pats I think it's more than one I don't even know that I do it's never been done I could shock the world that would No One Believes that people were a little people were a little non plus that I picked them to only win 14 games they asked where my medal went so maybe yeah but 20 plus get the buy or no 14 and three in the regular season I know I'm talking about you were at 20 though it's a six game drop exactly okay Chris card Kevin Wilds Nick rght we're just going to start the show and get your predictions week uh we start with Brandon iuk steel he's back appreciate the content to be honest with you we in the dog days of summer you were going to yeah you were going to the Patriots you diss the Patriots you headed to the Steelers that gave us a day the Browns nope you're just back on the 49ers four years $120 million deal here's the newest highest paid wide receivers list Justin Jefferson still there in the number one spot which I like uh CD AJ Brown am mon R Brown and and Tyreek all at 30 so Brew you were a little bit nervous yesterday yeah is your faith restored to a large degree I do feel better about the Niners obviously than I felt 24 hours ago now I thought iuk would play for them or at least be suited up and get paid but I thought thought he might have a back injury allahi Jaylen Ram you know what I mean where he's not playing but he's getting paid or I thought he plays but he's not in the right space mentally while even though he his best thing would be to go out there and play great I just wondered is he too shaken up by not getting the deal that he's not going to be as good as he could be so yeah he's P's favorite receiver obviously I think he's their best receiver at this point he opens things up cuz he's their deep threat for all the stuff underneath um now you got to get Trent Williams done and I have no doubt that they're going to get Trent Williams done they got to they here's why I say that even though we we really haven't seen much reporting on it other than that they they're not that close they got to yeah I agree like they have no choice you why pay auk if you're not bringing back Trent Williams Pronto CA Trent Williams we all agreed was more important than IU 100% so you have to get this done you're clearly all for this year Debo's probably gone now next year right well and Trent though might be actually more dug in than iuk that's the only I think he is but I think they're G to just figure it out the thing with Trent that's weird is I don't think he necessarily needs a raise per se I think he needs the money guaranteed and so we talked about it yesterday they have seven guys making 20 plus million against the cap next season which is not a sustainable it's not sustainable even just for next season which is why to bruise point this does look like now Debo this is likely his last year in San Francisco not they would cut him he'd be a valuable trade piece for someone to pick up and I think Trent understood his $37 million cap hit that's not guaranteed at all would be an easy place for them to clean up their books and he wants to protect himself against that not because he's not going to be a great player but because at 36 years old if he gets injured that money's not going to be out there so I I do think Trent will be back in the fold at some point I don't know that he'll be back in the fold for week one a man who has skipped a full season you know standing on principle well you know 100 million in earnings ago I I'm not ready to say he is there's no chance he Allah Chris Jones misses a week and remember Chris when he missed his week didn't even get a the huge new contract he missed his week got a slight bump and then got the contract this off pause there for a second Chris Jones was watching uh Chiefs Lions yeah Lions won yeah and it felt a little bit like Chris Jones I don't think would ever root against the Chiefs but I think when they had a conversation with the agents like you know what not the worst thing for us sure right if the 49ers blast the Jets oh but I don't see I think without Trent Williams against that defense even though I don't think the Jets D line without reic is their strength I don't think it's bad obviously I think their back end of their defense is better I don't think py will look like the py you guys have become accustomed to if if Trent Williams is not there he'll be running for his life I would think so so here is so but I think in large part I agree with Brew in that auk's back Trent's going to be back at some point the ners should be in really good position once again so to me this is my answer is less about my faith being restored or not because yeah I think they're going to be in really good shape this year and more that I don't think there is a single team in the league Brew more sbob this season than these Niners correct because they have been B I'm glad you agree I didn't know if you would or not a weird category because everything because of their success but they don't win if they don't win it no one's going to be like how could you not repeat like it's just a weird spot the Niners been banging on the door and they are not not going to have this level of talent around again anytime soon and the only way they will moving forward by the way is if they Crush multiple drafts because what has afforded them this level of talent is not paying a quarterback the last few years and that while P's new contract isn't going to instantly kick in from 1 million to 60 it's not going to be 1 million bucks anymore assuming he plays well this year and they extend him and the you know the KD's age Trent Williams's age McCaffrey is not his age as much as the age of the position like this is their moment they probably should have won a Super Bowl already and I don't think they're going to be better positioned than they are right now especially now that I you expect now you if I remember correctly did not pick them to make the playoffs no I have them in the playoffs not winning not winning their division I have the Rams winning the division the notion they're not going to make the playoffs I think is crazy I think they have too much talent yeah they they're making the playoffs it would be it would be shocking to me if a team who offensively has a top two at at the following positions in the league tight end left tackle running back fullback wide receiver core that's just you know what I mean leave the which is like if that team and by the way nobody looks at the Niners defense like they stink like no they're perennially good to very can I just I'll just be Devil's Advocate you know I like Warren Sharp's book that I downloaded I finally found it in my Google doc oh okay good yeah that's why I'm a hard copy guy I tried to get it hard copy guy would have been perfect reading I was trying to print it from the office I felt guilty it's 500 pages using so much toner in any event uh San Francisco 49ers have the worst rest rest Edge for the 2024 season 21 fewer days rest in their opponents who who had the worst last year do you remember so glass half full the 49ers had the worst last year no the Chiefs had the worst last year oh I thought I think 49 the Chiefs and I know the Chiefs had a terrible rest 49ers also did okay we're really bad and then glass half empty it's like back to back years yeah so if we talk about the 49ers not having Trent Williams Pur is not going to be the same we're CMC calf away from py not looking the same do we feel like the 49ers are so not necessarily topheavy it's just a a sprained ankle and a toe here or there and all sudden the house I think most teams are if if the wrong person gets hurt they're in trouble outside of but the ners have would you agree brew and I don't want to get we're going to have you know six months to go to war about Brock py I I so I'm not trying to get into that right now most we talked the other day about how well none of these quarterbacks if they don't have weapons except for Mahomes and Mahomes to your point has has had Kelsey the whole time can succeed at a high level the the one of the Great things about the ners is they have so many weapons compared to the rest of the league that they can lose I think anyone on the offense other than Trent Williams for a month and they still go into a game with plenty of weapon options and besid besides pery too I would imagine oh okay yeah every team the quarterback I that's why I said weapons yeah but I'm saying like if the if the bangal lose I know he's not even there right now but Jamar Chase then all of a sudden you're looking at the team like man they have like one viable real scary weapon the Eagles and I'm talking about teams with good options the Eagles the Eagles now that they have saquan you can argue they have three legitimate weapons but the ners if KD goes down it's like well n just down to the best running back two of you know two top paid receivers and the I know we don't talk about use Che but the best the best fullback in the league and so I think the Eagles weapons are right there with the okay so sure so maybe those are the two team better or or right there you know AJ Brown V takes with and Dallas got her at the tight end and obviously saquin so believeing in the you love well yeah because saquin is Christian mcaffrey I forgot true watch okay watch DX steel not done not getting done well no one knows that uh I even though I think it will uh Nick doesn't think it's going to be done even Dak doesn't necessarily agree with me here he is on the process uh I don't need a no no do what you like it done before the season uh I think it's says a lot if it is or if it isn't um but however doesn't doesn't really matter to me to be honest with you what does it say if it isn't just how people feel okay yeah I mean go ahead well listen you can ask the question because I know no it's do you think it's his last year but you've been kind of saying this well I want to be very clear I am not 100% confident this is his last year in Dallas where I am fully confident is any contract he signs is going to be H is going to happen after after the year which is either maybe the Cowboys will end up you know being at the top bitter or maybe Dak will you know a year from now look around and be like ah the Giants that Turf and that not interested uh so but so I am not guaranteeing or whatever that's worth that dax's done in the Dallas after this year what I feel fully confident in is what he seems to be fully confident in which is they're not meeting my price in the next week he says you know it says a lot if it is is or if it isn't meaning you don't value me the way I feel I should be valued which by the way for as much criticism do I give Dallas for how they do business for the noise as Brew talks about MH if I were running Dallas I wouldn't want to make D Prescott the highest paid quarterback in football either I don't think I think he's good I don't think he's good enough to carry you to a Super Bowl with those weapons that you would the team that you would have to kind of tear down at that price point so I don't blame them for not wanting to pay Dak you know four years $250 million I blame them for being in the position where if they don't want to pay him that they're going to get nothing for for him because they can't trade him they can't tag him I blame them for painting themselves into this corner I don't blame them for saying we don't want to make the ninth best quarterback in the league the highest paid by a mile I don't blame them for that okay so let me ask you this let's say they have you know their typical year wi 10 11 games lose in the first or second round of the playoffs are you paying him no I would I you just let him walk yeah I mean again it's a terrible spot to be in because you should in that spot then trade him for a first round pick and something else they put themselves in a position where they can't I've just I I know at some point it kind of feels like I'm in reruns on this there's a lot of ways we've seen teams win a Super Bowl the pay the midlevel you know above average Quarterback like he's great that's the one we don't see we've seen bad quarterbacks win Super Bowls we've seen young quarterbacks win Super Bowls we've seen great quarterbacks at all ranges of the salary scale win Super Bowls the oh he's pretty good and he's paid like he's the best that has never worked a l of people that would say Matthew Stafford come and I know everybody loved his talent and all that but there are a lot of people that would say him coming from Detroit was about what Dak Prescott is now that right he like you said yesterday he made one Pro Bowl he obviously never won didn't never won even one playoff game and they won listen that brew and then I'll let you go that is a very fair retor that I'm probably biased on because I hold Stafford in such high regard you know what I mean but you're right as far as his resume he didn't have the playoff success he had good gy numbers but I just hold Stafford's talent and ability in a different tier than Dak Prescott I thought this interview with Dak was very telling and I thought one thing it did it it s said to me he does want to be a cowboy like if everything's equal he Beyond if everything's equal he wants to stay with the Cowboys and I say that for two reasons one when he was asked is it important you get a deal done before the season he had a long pause he he did not look to me like a guy that was like I'm good like if I don't get my money now I'm getting it next season next summer and I might be in another team but I am good he looked like a guy that is frustrated and bothered that it hasn't gotten done Silly like kind of like Elementary question do you think his feelings are hurt yeah that's it looked a little to me like his feeling like he's he is hurt because when he answered it says a lot about how you feel and I do think you may be right Nick in that maybe they're offering him 53 maybe even 55 uh or maybe it's lower than that but he's not feeling good about the offer that they're making to him and I really feel and I'm I'm more with wilds that I do think this still has a really good chance of getting done because it looks like if they offer him 58 or maybe it'll be 60 it has to be 60 but if they offer him that before the season I think you'll take it he didn't look to me like a guy that's like I'm good either way like you know I'm getting paid next year and if I have to go to Pittsburgh or the Giants to do it I'm fine he looked like he's bothered and hurt that they haven't valued him the way he thinks what I don't understand about the that the the optimism that this is going to get done is I do get I know the Jerry likes to stay in the news I get all of that but if they were going to offer let's say that Todd Francis told him it's going to take 60 is the number if they were going to offer that is there any explanation for we are now 7 days away six days away from the start of the season for them not having done it by now it's clearly wearing on the the team it's wearing on the owner who makes the decision they like both of these guys quotes are getting hotter and hotter Jerry's dropping a half dozen F bombs to Clarence Hill shout out to Clarence for his new website good luck to him on it Dak is d started three weeks ago with the no I'm going to say it and you know remember when he was at the press conference and paus and it's was like you know what I'm going to say it a lot of great quarterbacks have had to move on that I'm paraphrasing like the it's ratcheting up if they always were going to pay it Wilds yeah then why haven't they done it cuz they need to ratchet up a little bit for just for this our show it's got to get a little bit of like oh we made it now we're here we're ratcheted there's tension there's a little bit of frustration good news this was all Jerry's kind of the CD thing just played out like that as well they just did CD that's what they did with Ezekiel Elliott it's a little different obviously emit Smith way back but they did play two games without him and saw they had to have him but yeah this is what they do right or wrong and it's wrong I think but this is what they do can I pitch you something that what you said reminded me bro about like he he his feelings are hurt and he wants to be with the Cowboys cuz you always talk about Kurt Cousins KK cousins bet on himself got this huge deal from the Vikings then he then he did it again now he's in Falcons man you're going to look at kurk cousins career when it ends and be like hey kurk cousins right remember he's he was in Washington and then he was with the Vikings and he with in Atlanta correct and it's just going to be like yeah you know right hey good job you're in the NFL yeah I don't think and the money might he might win the money contest but that's different than being the face of the Dallas Cowboys I it's the exact opposite it's a little bit like what we talk about like Paul George bouncing around like man if you just stayed like Reggie Miller in one spot you could be an icon so I agree with that to an extent except the face of the Dallas Cowboys cuts it both ways like you know who I think is one of the most unfairly maligned quarterbacks of the last 20 years Tony Romo really yeah I do I I don't want to argue about Tony right now but I I thought Tony was better than he was giving credit for because his failures were so magnified because he was the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys like nobody cares that Philip Rivers made one Conference Championship game ever was on multiple 12 or 13 win teams that went one and done in the playoffs now he's a guy still he's still relevant Philip Rivers literally coaching High School yeah but okay well to yes you you do have better postc career broadcast opportunities as the Cowboys quarterback I don't know that DXs into point I'm making is being the Cowboys quarterback if you're Troy is amazing if you're if you're not that it might actually be worse than nobody could Dak and Kirk Cousins playoff success regular season success all of it is almost identical nobody look we don't talk about Kurt Cousins in the same negative tones nor the positive tone and so that that you know what I mean so I just think it cuts in both directions Dak Prescott is a celebrity would you agree with that yes why cuz he's the Cowboys quarterback he's if he was doing this now last year he did have he's had some good Seasons obviously last year was his best in the MVP conversation but before that he was a celebrity because he was the Cowboys quarterback if he were somewhere else doing the same thing he'd be a good quarterback make a couple Pro bowls but not we wouldn't talk about him in a positive this but the question is I get and I don't know Dak personally there's I forget who's some standup comedians like you know what's better than being rich and famous being rich like the idea that like the fame is not for some people it's you'd rather be Matt Ryan like you know what and I know Matt Ryan made a Super Bowl and went to a in one of League MVP but like everybody knows you're good nobody has hot takes about you you go about your business you collect your money take like and so I don't know Dak well enough but it's absolutely on the board that dak's like okay my fame cup is as full as it's going to get in that case maybe you go somewhere else then yes a real football franchise not a soap op I mean I'm just saying like really all right coming up after the break Travis Hunter dazzles next on FS1 the Fox Sports channel on Sirius XM you know whose Fame cup will never be full Dion will never be full 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 tickets 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 coming up ooh prediction week rolls on huge conclusion you're in the NBA P who's in the Super Bowl we've got play of the year and a special treat okay but right now we're going to college football Colorado put on a show and like most shows highs and lows uh shador had 445 yards and four touchdowns three of them caught by Travis Hunter who also had three tackles on the other side of the ball Buffalo survived a short Hail Mary uh here's coach Prime some of you upset that we got the W some of you really mad we didn't get the hell so God bless you all you have to wait again till next week okay Brew are you buying Buffalo stock I will say this and I don't know the I didn't see the whole press conference but if Dion just said that unsolicited you you don't why you doing that yeah you like you don't to do that it's just I I love Dion's Persona and stuff but now if somebody said something that was negative I get it but just to come out of the blue and be like I know some of y'all want us to lose you just cuz you going to be losing pretty soon so don't don't just you don't need to put that out there but they're not a contender for the Big 12 and certainly not a contender to make the playoffs if they probably are about a six- win team and I think that'll be solid seven would be like oh my gosh wow great season but about a six- win team but I will say this even though it was an FCS team and they only won by a touchdown or whatever that was a good win because North Dakota state has beaten they're nine and now nine and5 against SBF FBS teams they beat 13 rank Iowa once a few years ago I mean I you would have liked it to have been more dominant because again it's the a division onea team but that's a good one and they have put off upsets I give them credit for making whatever adjustments they did at halftime cuz they held him to six points in the second half versus 20 in the first half so Prime is right in that I'm not happy because of the outome you know because it was a close game but we got the win but yeah no they're they're going to they might get their come up in soon this next week play Minnie Mahomes Dylan Rola number two player in the country coming out of high school Minnie Mahomes well he's the one that looked like Mahomes the Mahomes help train that has that he wears the Oakley yeah yeah the whole thing yeah no I'm not buying any stock me nether none none none none uh look this is a this is a three-man team that's right yes who's the third oh Jimmy he should not be left out he should not this is a three individual team like and for me when you they're not any they they didn't make any improve I shouldn't say any improvements it's the same issues as last year that's that's what I was thinking like oh the offensive Line's not great you can't tackle but shador and Travis and Jimmy are great okay yeah you were you were expect okay they were a glaring glaring glaring weaknesses on the defensive side albeit you got one of the best talented individuals in all college football playing both ways in Travis Hunter but you get no pressure on the quarterback you don't dominate UPF front at all you're poor everywhere else in the after your front line you're poor Shiloh poor Shiloh like I I mean he's living on the last name like I I I hate do this but I have to be honest offensively they've just he just built this team around his son like he gave him Talent so his son can Thrive I truly don't believe that it's about winning and yesterday I didn't I didn't think until I watched it was like okay that's that's his angle yeah it's I got two Heisman guys yeah if I can get one of these guys to win the Heisman that's that's my marketing and you know you know when it definitely wasn't about winning can I do it Wilds okay so quick quick sidebar for the audience here Nick has a let's call it a content to killy's heel it's a passion yeah a passion for clock management and why I know it's important it's also ratings poison but I never want to squash a man's dream so we decided to meet in the middle here I'm going to give you old school timer you want 40 seconds I want the amount of time of a play clock and this will be for the NFL or the or college football when I have talk clock management I get 40 seconds to it you tell me when the play When the play clock begins 3 2 1 go all right after an agree I thought a borderline pass interference call but whatever the underthrown passes you get them I hate it it's a minute 38 North Dakota state has one timeout the play clock is 40 seconds you take three deep knees unless you're trying to do a crystal ball from Miami last year and blow a game and the game's over instead shador throws a f fade route and all of a sudden you're playing defense and there's a Hail Mary that's not serious and I if it's on prime or can I can I add to this though not if it's about listic it's about story lines yet cuz in in in his postgame presser he talks about that he was like Shor was trying to get this kid yeah he's such a nice kid that's why I'm like it can't be about winning then because it's if you're allowing a player to whether it's your son or not if you're allowing a player to jeopardize a a sure win it's over win to be nice to include another did you take that literally oh yes you did you you didn't think it was like just like kind of a no no no that's I thought they and but isn't the call from the sidelines like it's knees now and but it looked like they did not had no idea they were not it was not going to be knes now maybe they called a running PL it should have been knees though that's my point like I agree with you that's why I'm putting it on the coach as well that they didn't do it just very quickly we get to Travis on this I agree with Brew I said before yesterday I thought go to state could win because of a lot of what Bruce said what is so concerning to me about Colorado is even if North Dakota has like older players guys that know how to win you know can do things like that Colorado's Big people should have been such better athletes and the fact that they wer against an FCS team means what is what of these other teams what are the trench battles look like and that's why I think color despite the Factor's awesome and Travis Hunter is a Transcendent player more on Travis Hunter right now his Heisman odds jumped uh with his dazzling performance from plus 5,000 to plus500 still a ways back organ's plus 2,000 this morning G hey uh who favorite still uh Lebron Tyreek and Pat certan all impressed all weighed in um so you have we put Tyreek up there because he's on offense Tan's on defense LeBron plays basketball there you go uh so we'll start with Greg do you think Travis can win the Heisman if Colorado isn't ranked or has a poor season I do I do believe he can he's going to have to make more plays on defense though because they won't throw in the ball they won't throw over there exactly so he's going to have to be put in position to where he finds a way to make more plays impact plays on both sides of the ball cuz right now it's looking like when he's going to get plays it's going to be on the offensive side of the ball I I do believe he changes he changes the game for them like if he's not out there I I don't know if they win because of how impactful he is yesterday no like I mean he's clearly their best talented player no disrespect to Jimmy horn Jr because I think he's a fantastic receiver he's fast can get open obviously has rapport with shadur but Travis Hunter he is the real deal and I think they're going to play him so much we're going to see the usage of him on both sides of the ball and that's how he'll be able to do it the key is the both Sid to the ball absolutely like that's the that's as great as he is that's the only reason he's in the hman discussion cuz he's going both ways now there's only been one guy ever to win the Heisman with a losing record the legendary Paul hor 19 they were 2 and8 it was 1956 2 and8 I would they can't go like I think they got to win at least five games but it's all about him going both ways like it's it's not quite the same because we've like never seen Shani since Babe Ruth but it's similar because you just don't see this and I don't think Greg he has to have like a ton of interceptions or anything like that on the defensive just if he if he's viewed as they won't even throw him kind of like Dion not Dion had a lot of interceptions but Dion was like lock down we're going to the other side of the field if Hunter is viewed like that where he's only got three or four interceptions but it's because they never throw his way and he's putting up numbers offensively which he will yesterday they had I think 59 yards rushing they average like two and a half yards per carry against a FCS team they're going to have to throw the ball you said about Dion he wants shadur to maybe get you know get drafted number one or whatever so shadur gonna be throwing it he going to throw for 400 yards a lot of games so Travis is going to put up the big numbers and he'll be playing defense too so he's got a good chance go ahead WS oh I well I had a question like the Otani effect that you mentioned do we he came off the field for two plays that's what's remarkable he got hurt last year but it was remember it was that kind of late hit it was questionable dirty is is he like Otani who we view as kind of like a a Superstar athlete but also because he was allowed to do it it's so it's not the idea that nobody can do it it was because domestically we were telling they could no longer hit I think for this kid I so I I went up and read you guys know I'm a big rivals guy oh yeah um CU he he carries on the legacy of being the number one overall player in the nation like great Trevor Lawrence pton and some others Clowny long nice NFL career this kid his Junior of high school had 1,400 yards receiving and eight interceptions he's like he he was playing and so he has been his conditioning since seemingly he was 13 years old is I play every snap of these football games maybe other kids could do it if from that young of an age they were conditioned that way but I don't think anybody else was like this like this is it's unreal it's unbelievable and so I that so that's the reason I think he could win the Heisman is because such a special thing we've never seen Greg if you come to my flag football games we keep Connor on both sides yeah's Paul he can get through the ball whether you're taking care of your kids a senior loved one or juggling both we all need a break sometimes care.com can help give you that break by helping

and all of a sudden start talking a little crazy remember Orlando Brown My Pal left the Chiefs went to the Bengals and talked about how it was better to block for Joe because he doesn't take as deep of dropbacks I guess I don't know uh Tyreek went there and tyre's all over the bulleon board about two in accuracy lerus sne knows what's up I I am curious how this landed on CJ stra number one supporter Greg Jennings one yeah I mean you're number you're you're the vice president of the CJ stoud fan club Brew he's the president of it uh the look I'm I don't have a CJ stra board neither do I need one because we understand what it is he's not he's not like Patrick M there we go like no one is right like let let's be let's be honest Patrick moles he is the gold standard yeah period Point Blank if you ask CJ strad he would say I'm not Patrick Mahomes they play completely different styles of game look CJ Stroud is a problem now sne if you listen to that segment a little bit longer he goes on to talk about some of the receivers in his division that he's going to have to face and he goes on and talks about Diggs like ask Diggs what it is we gonna find out what it is real soon because it's not Diggs that I'm worried about sne is a great corner know this he's a really good corner but when you have CJ stra at quarterback he doesn't have to be Patrick Mahomes like because he is CJ Stout he's creating and blazing his own trail the way he wants to do it but you got tank Dell I know you don't want that problem he's a little too quick too Shifty and he going to create too much separation Nico Collins he's embracing all the physicality Diggs is your best option if you areer lerus sne like I I I love what he's done I love what he I I believe he's going to be a great Corner even for the Titans sometimes guys don't need to respond and I'm going to respond for you CJ we ain't worried about it you not Patrick Mah home wow wow okay all right you are right there is no other Patrick Mahomes including Caleb Williams there's no other Patrick M Mahomes but and this might get me back on the top of the CJ CJ Mountain I that said CJ I got to we got to be honest he went into a much tougher situation than Patrick Mahomes did all right CJ as a rookie takes over a three- win team Patrick took over a 10- win team that had made the playoffs CJ as a rookie has a a rookie head coach who's looks like he's gonna be really good but we didn't know that going in Patrick has Andy Reid brw you're flirting with it I'm just honest CJ had zero pro bowlers at his skill position and Patrick had three Travis Tyreek and uh Kareem hunt so I'm just saying that CJ had a rougher go of it his first year as a starter than Patrick did you put me on there I'm everybody knows I love got it ready to go I'm just saying I think I've moved the CJ I've reclaimed CJ Greg spent five minutes 90% of his answer talking about he ain't Patrick please he ain't all that but no I got CJ we're on the the show's about to break because you're trying the the CJ is tearing everybody apart that's the TR what did I say that wasn't true I know but you're talking about years ago you're talking about Mahomes second year no but I'm saying CJ stepped into a tougher situation their rookie Seasons Mahomes threw way fewer picks that was his big thing that was CJ big thing was ball protect the football been only for the24 season and that was a lot of momes yeah that was I get it no I understand I just I I I am glad that larius even that lerus was sad that the Chiefs didn't keep him he said that in this thing that you wanted to stay there they couldn't make it work I'm glad he didn't lash out the way Tyreek and others have you know what I mean and make I don't want to have to put him on the board then I have to eliminate him later nobody nobody likes that this is what happened to brew last year he got this right it was this Brew got eliminated last year we also retired Cowboy bro well that's the only one I've got Aaron Rogers coming up [Music] next I'm kind of in on the Titans look the I was just ooh predictions weak we are heating up these are we're doing MVP Super Bowl play of the Year man Genie's got all of his picks man Genie's here in spirit okay brag has got all of his picks I debut my picks ohw and I have had to do all the heavy lift I know now you guys come in on the final La it has been great like I'm like I'll just hold back uh but right now Aaron Rogers you know he hasn't thrown for 300 yards in 23 games Josh is that right didn't double check that 23 gam uh but Mike Williams said he's ready to go when the Jets open up their season in San Francisco take a listen it's going to be crazy uh Aaron he's hitting all cylinders right now him and G everybody else is making a lot of plays against you know the defense that we have so feel like when it comes Sunday it's going to make it a lot easier for everybody okay remember predictions week is a full week if anyone wants to change their Jets prediction move them up into the playoffs or move them out you can is anyone willing to take the bait Mike Williams say all cylinders no I think I'm the most do you have I don't know if Greg has GRE and I have him winning division Bru picked him to make the playoffs I think every long the shows existed um I know he last first year I you know what try to have depth um and uh the but no I don't Mike Williams who they are just the other Mike Williams news was he's going to play in week one and the coach was like we don't know if he's going to be 100% but then he was like I wouldn't be out there if I wasn't 100% I like Mike Williams I feel badly for a guy who clearly has a ton of talent and his body has unlike Jimmy G his body has truly betrayed him over the course of his career um but no I I I'm weird I think coaching matters in the NFL I think having a true leader at the quarterback position matters in the NFL I think having more players on your team that are closer to 25 than 45 matters in the NFL and so that the Jets technically do have that but you um and so I I I think that if you are in a position where you try to Inn the Shadows replace your offensive coordinator that's a bad sign and it's even worse sign if you're not competent enough to actually do it so for all those reasons in a stacked AFC I do not think the New York Jets are going to be a playoff team and I that what everyone tells me the same thing they won seven games with this bad quarterback play well if they were to get the exact same schedule that they got last year and play those exact same quarterbacks maybe I'd be more bullish about them but five of those seven wins came against backup quarterbacks last year so this season are they going to have that same quarterback luck defensively no so no I do not believe in the hold on they beat J Herz Josh Allen and CJ stra who they knocked out of the game wasn't like they knocked CJ out it wasn't like he didn't four and a half of the wins were I mean they put him out of the game that's that's their credit I if you had said they're just too old I'm they're not going to be healthy the offense Tyron Smith Rogers let's see if he makes a I would respect that on paper oh they I mean come on the health is the only thing that will keep them out of the playoff do they write down the co names on paper does that count what Matt a flu proved you got them going to the Super Bowl is there any proof he's better than Robert Sal no but I feel like there's proof that Robert Salah and Nat Hackett are a bad coaching staff I don't think Salah has never had a competent quarterback so how much it Brew last year they could have had a competent backup and the organization decided that's the organization that's not on St so he has no okay so the head coach has nothing to do with it it was it was their second pick in the draft they were going to give him a so I think they did a poor job last year of transitioning to what they had actually playing on the field which then says well how good of a coach are you it puts that in question I get that but with Aaron Rogers in house under Center he automatically makes any and every coach that much better because he takes on so much more and so he by default you don't have to do as much you're still going to prepare you're still going to make sure that everyone has what they need and The Game Plan is going to be locked in step with what your quarterback desires to see but he's the one that's going to make the engine go that's why I believe that this team with Aaron Rogers if he can stay healthy is definitely a playoff team sorry I was distracted because you moved your paper and I saw your playoff picks and O Greg's got a juy over there oh boy coming up prediction rolls on let me see that oh my goodness live from New York it's the show that is concluding predictions week sad with a bang and a handful of surprises it has been did it top last year's predictions yes you think yeah it did I thought there was I usually know about the surprises and now I was confused uh one surprise that we have coming up we will unveil one person's prediction well done that is a hidden Super Bowl prediction no one knows what it is looks like a Jaguar no one knows what could be a falcon Fon is a falcon what Kurt C Dophin a dolphin never at the shape you never never know but today on the heels of the supernatural Funk Billy faces the rarest of situations a week one must win I don't know if we're doing more funk music we got to look into our funk music library we got to get rid of it Supernatural Funk the music for it it's well it honestly I don't remember the funk was Funk the non-licensed funk music doesn't really work not great uh meanwhile when you name back there it is again it's just really not good uh brand iuk uh is back does this mean we all have full confidence in Brock's face when birie Unleashed that a nice throw look at this one uh but right now again it's the conclusion of predictions week that's the throw that said was the worst decision of that he was wrong about that just tell I was watching that what Shanahan said okay well shanyan had never had a fourth quarter comeback before Brock py was event there you go there you go it's the conclusion of predictions week today we're tackling Conference champions the Super Bowl the MVP and we unveil my picks these guys picks Greg's picks and Coach man Genie oh not here but he's here in spirit awesome so everyone's is different you all that's yeah the floor is yours all right so first we will reveal all 14 of my playoff teams and just keep in mind America when you are making your own picks when you're listening to others there are certain rules that info history tells us must be followed you must have at least one worst to First you must have at least five new playoff teams you must have at least one team that everyone thinks is going to be really good that falls off and as an added bonus if you can find one of the trendy picks and fade that that's good too worst to first for me both conferences the Bengals and the Bears five new playoff teams Bengals Jags Chargers Bears Falcons Falcons going to be a very popular one the really good team that falls off the Philadelphia Eagles the trendy pick that I'm fading going against you really have to pick between the Texans or the Packers they both check those box last year was the Lions and the Jags the Jags are the one that you fell off unfortunately sadly Trevor's terrible injury for me the Green Bay Packers so those are the seven playoff teams so what will the conference Championship weekend look like well as you can see in the AFC I'm going with the seven best quarterbacks in the conference so for the conference Championship weekend I'm going with the two best quarterbacks wow in each conference the two best quarterbacks in the AFC are Patrick Mahomes and Joe burrow and the two best quarterbacks in the NFC are Matt Stafford and Caleb Williams now this is a little anticlimactic to a degree because everyone knows I'm the Bears don't reveal it yet though but people don't know who I'm picking in the AFC they're assuming I'm going to pick the Kansas City Chiefs I mean this is if you don't I'm changing my Pi people will change the channel can I can I's may I have a moment sure I'm a student of History okay I the League's been being playing for almost 80 years mhm we don't have three time Super Bowl champions not one not in a row three in a row not Super Bowl yeah we have some three NFL champions also have you guys heard me say this is the year for the Bengals multiple times have you guys heard me say that I'm worried about Mike Brown Mike Browning it after this year have you guys you know heard me moderately concerned I suppose about Hollywood Browns injury about maybe a little you know there a lot of Taylor Swift stuff going on Bengals laser focus are are they you're really right Focus didn't we do that yesterday they're not my playoff predictions in in the AFC at Arrowhead Stadium some people call it burghead Stadium Chiefs kick their ass and in that whole thing the Chiefs play Bears we already know I pick the Bears and then in the Super Bowl Patrick Mahomes it's the Spider-Man meme Patrick Mahomes against Patrick Mahomes 2.0 the original wins Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are of course Champions so here are and as an added bonus because because he you know he's due to win it it's been a full year since he won it Patrick Mahomes also going to be leaguing so there it is my playoff teams Super Bowl MVP write it in stone America's most accurate Sports prog not get of 2022 will regain the crown for 2024 just say 2023 no one's I wasn't though you gave it a Stolen Valor I'm not going to do that you a for effort I'm not going to do that all right uh Greg do you have a quick response you just want Brew to go because you got your you want me to go act like give me the yeah you tried you Tred we are actually in our I'm an independent thinker okay a nonconformist a rebel if you will all right okay because because Nick yesterday said you had all the sameas Nick is going with his rules you got to have a last to first you got to do the I'm a rebel I am going with who I think is going forget the rules so the same rules are made to be broken no it's not the same the Bengals weren't in the playoffs last year the Falcons weren in the playoffs last year I got some different teams so those are my those are my playoffs the Jets yeah my goodness and I got them winning the division so those are my playoff picks but let's get to the real meat of this okay the championship round I don't know what you're call it in the AFC the Ravens Revenge oo all right I have my purple Jordans I have my Versace robe I have my sunglasses my sandwich and my soda pop upstairs in my office waiting I know it's what five months from now old but they are waiting for that Monday after the AFC Championship when I can come in here kick my feet up because Lamar and the Ravens have gone into Arrowhead it's going to have to be an arrowhead they have gone into Arrowhead and gotten their renge so they will Ravens will beat the Chiefs to get to the Super Bowl now I know that's I think Nick thought I was going to go with the ners right I look the ners you're a brock they're a good te I'm a brock py guy but I pick with my head not my heart I'm a momes guy I'm the first to ever say it was Jordan s to predict this greatness that came absolutely gr was Grant col write that story what he might have wrote that so in the NFC you see I got the Packers and the lions one of them is going to take out the ners before this game and this is a tough one cuz you know I had the Lions winning the division all right but the Packers when you guys won it a wild card 10 wins I got the Packers and Jordan love beating the Detroit Lions wow and Jordan love will following the footsteps of Brock pie and Joe burrow and all the Russell Wilson and all these quarterbacks who have gotten to the Super Bowl in their second season as a starter and then they will lose to the Baltimore Ravens Super Bowl the look look Lamar is focused Lamar is urgent I see optimism I don't see you know him him thinking about last year's loss to the Chiefs he has done nothing but prove everybody wrong and I think he's going to finally do it this year in the Super Bowl and get that Championship excellent this is if I may bro oh who's we go sorry I I look I think Patrick's going to have a great year I I love that he said last year wasn't fun I'm sure it's fun winning Super Bowls but you know the regular season cuz he couldn't do all the great things he can do Xavier worthy obviously has to stay healthy but I think he's going to be dangerous and they got to get Hollywood Brown back probably be back what week two week three and then it's going to be a show for Patrick Mahomes so something cuz I did not I I was certain the Niners were at least going to be in your final four and potentially I thought the auk news might have put it over the top and Dusty knows I did it was tough for me to make that decision I almost went for the 90s to the point where I was like can you please get Bruce uh I was I was scouring kind of like last year with the but just something occurred to me before you go Greg this is now the second straight year where one of your two Super Bowl picks I had missing the Playoffs yes last year was the Ravens and you were more right than I was obviously they didn't make super row but they made it all the way confence Championship Game this year it's the Packers where I I think the Packers are you know going to be similar to what they were last year in the regular season Brew is with a lot the Packers a lot of people are very high on the Packers I'm not that's a compliment not a slight but yeah okay okay Greg all right uh so you know I'm I'm a little smarter than both of you uh I have a little bit more experience so I'm just going to give it to you like this these are my seven teams in the AFC and NFC it is what it is and if you notice I know there's no glitch there's no Jazz there's no glitch on your screen I want you to really focus on who's not represented NFC and the AFC there's no 49ers what is Greg doing you know what I'm wondering what are you doing everyone is so bullish on the ners and I thought to myself I really like the ners I love that they got iuk done there's just a little bit too much going on right now and I think Brock P's dealing with that not going to handle that great so we'll see they may be on the outside looking in I also feel like their older team going to struggle with being healthy all season long that's why I had to leave them out you see I got the Bears in there on the in the AFC y yep I I got a respect to the Bears in the AFC Co yes I had to put the Colts in there I am a believer in Anthony Richardson I I it was tough for me need to even put the Dolphins in there because I I I I tickled with your Jags oh there might there might be three out of the South but but I was like I can't can I bill no bills so that's the one that jumped out to me so here's my deal on the bills I just feel like right now with Josh Allen I don't know if I can trust him to actually be what's needed without all the weapons I know it was I know it was exciting I know he he ended up ended the season very well and strong however we' we haven't seen him with no-name weapons that he has to bring to our TV screen and say he's going to be a player because I'm going to elevate their level of play I don't know if he can do that this season and that's why you don't see the bills wow with my Super Bowl all right let's see Pi who is it what is it we can go with that guy and if I had my flag I would put it down here oh he's to do wo we got wow Detroit Lions representing the NFC W CJ wow CJ stra and no now now when when somebody is your guy would CJ stra you my guy clearly how' you pick Daniel Jones I put my I put my flag right there in front of the desk on top of the desk CJ stoud and the Houston Texans take on the Detroit Lions I really believe in Dan Campbell and what he's going to do I think they're going to take that jump I really like the Lions this year it was it was tough for me you you took the Packers yeah so respect there and then winning the MVP I mean come on do we need to wow CJ St he's going to have a year wow a h of a year I mean you know what lerus sne he still won't be Patrick Mahomes you know what if he does what you said and obviously he's not Mahomes does that become a rival for momes if he beats him in the playoffs yeah yeah cuz nobody really has and so you both have a seconde starter Jordan loves OB not a seconde player but a second-year starter in the Super Bowl you do you have a rookie I do Super Bowl so excellent job thank you a lot of parallel thinking between us uhoh here's my I got to see this well you know what they call me the straw that stirs the drink they do yeah I've never heard that attached to rounds often times okay I'll just go from the top dolphins do I believe in the Dolphins yes Mike McDaniel just got a new deal we believe in Mike McDaniel We Believe In Tua obviously Lamar obviously CJ obviously Mahomes Chargers that's a good you I Believe In The Vibes I believe in harble I believe in the staff Browns you might be thinking Browns I don't know what about the quarterback situation you tell me defense wins championships they've got a good defense and I literally saw them go to the playoffs with Joe Flo if I came on here last year be like you know what I think the Browns are so good they could get to the playoffs with Joe flar I'd be laughed out onto 54 Street but I I still believe him then the bills it was tough for me to like leave totally out the bills but I don't believe in Joe burrow because Trey Wingo said The Vibes are bad and as you know king of Vibes on the NFC side Cowboys in lions in Big Show I'm never leaving you San Francisco in oh I can't quit you I can't at least is bows that one that's his worst to First it's not even wor worse the first worse the playoffs no they make it some team has to be the weird team yeah and it's not going to be the Patriots it's although the Titans we started to flirt with the commanders could within the commanders have a chance and manini sprinkled the commanders but I still I look is Ganon good at defense I think so is Kyler a number one pick and that we've seen be explosive and get to the playoffs before yes has he had a weapon in his prime yeah DeAndre but now with Marvin I think Marvin's going to be great so yes I'm rolling with the cardal got to be a crazy one can I ask you a couple questions of course the all right so first of all you have two new playoff teams yeah that's worse than Bru 3 two new playoff teams the Chargers am I missing one the Chargers and the Cardinals everyone else made the playoffs last year rights the one the I know but no one's taking the Browns this year all right but then and you have a bold one in the but you have the Bengals missing I don't believe in Vibes I do not believe in The Vibes and I I don't believe in injury prone quarterbacks okay if Joe Burrow's lasts a full year I think Joe Burrow's skating a little bit all this Lamar criticism a lot of Josh Allen criticism Joe B's like hey I got a new haircut remember when I was in the Super Bowl and law like yeah I remember I don't like bad vibes okay in the Super Bowl consist this is when it gets a little bit confusing but bear with me cuz as you know I treat my takes like a r let wheel yeah you can put a chip here and put a a chip that seems to conflict on the other side doesn't matter I'm going to win one of them probably Super Bowl please reveal 49ers wow over the do and I know what the Dolphins I Believe In Tua and I believe in Miami and I believe they can I know don't say it I think they're going to have home field for the playoffs I think they're going to have home field for the playoffs be nice and to and I know what Chief's kingdom is saying didn't we kick this guy out at Chief's Kingdom and then we had to bring him back in and he's going to be out again well look as everybody knows I'm a momes guy and I'm beloved in Kansas City they call me Kansas City's favorite adopted son yeah that's a true story really yeah Super Bowl MVP we picked regular MVP you're doing I'm doing Super Bowl MVP and my regular season MVP please reveal that I'm not I'm not getting against the guy do I believe in the Dolphins yes I do but let's be honest I I I pride myself on transparency for the show do I think the Chiefs are going to win the Super Bowl I do wait what just listen the show doesn't work if we all pick the Chiefs okay is that what you want to hear it's a little entertainment okay you want see my FanDuel account it might not look exactly the same but I got to Stir It Up a little bit that's why they call me the straw that stirs the and also two a party would definitely shatter the record for least arm strength in the super I don't oh my God I I don't know who you're picking like he's picking the ners to beat the no it looked like you're picking the chiefs no I'm not picking put on the camera back on me I'm not picking the cheese right not if you're in Kansas City I'm not picking you no picking the dolphin now it's time for Coach man Genie picks uh do you want to walk through Coach man Genie picks since I just did a I don't have them well they're all right great here we go we can all kind of do it but go ahead Coach man Genie's picks on the screen all right so Chief's Raven hey come on Coach Jets bangle oh I didn't wow it all got red at once it was too much I'm just overwhelmed he's got lions lions over Texans with CJ is MVP Coach man who famously is late to every train there is wants to be early on the now Bru kicked down to third place CJ St got it's time it's time for the grand reveal oh remember how I said Coach man Genie was here in spirit yes now that we see it you're not you're never going to believe it okay this thing with the Four Paws in the tail yeah was actually a lying all along it's Coach man Genie's pick that is a great looking line I don't know if we have the right lighting for it but that is a great looking line oh I supposed to oh I supposed to fix awes excuse me his name main coach's pick Greg I I'm not I'm not going to lie coach I know you're he in spirit but I know you're listening and watching I'm not mad at it at all I'm not mad gre's got there we go not awesome more first things first after the break predictions week concluded good predictions good JY move holy cow put that on your real welcome back to the show you know we're less than a week away from the start of the NFL season Ravens Chiefs in a rematch of last year's AFC Championship game which saw the Chiefs dismantle Ravens team that decided to run the ball six times with their running backs now You' think they would come in with a different you know strategy urgent but if they don't it begs the question that that music let let him do his thing please bro Show Must win I could barely hear the music so it didn't it no no be a nice win bro You' never been you're just talking about sandwiches no there is no way I am writing off the Baltimore Ravens if they don't win I know no but what I'm saying is this listen there are too many built-in explanation can you please just go must win I'm saying no that's my answer what you want me to do that's my answer no it's not a must win go ahead but there's cuz there's built-in explanations new defensive coordinator revamped offensive line it's in Kansas City if they lose they got those things to say all right we we got work to do but they it it is not a musle I get that it's not literal I'm just saying I think if you're if you mentally can't bounce back from losing to straight to a team then you not Championship okay but so here's so exactly okay they wouldn't be Champion so here's why I think it is definitively a must-win for Baltimore and it's why if you remember when this got announced months ago I said I thought it was unfair for Baltimore I thought it was I thought the league should have actually put Chiefs Texans in this spot similar to what they did last year I thought for the Lions like stamping the Lions they're here for Real by giving them that game I thought they could have done that with CJ and the Texans first ever match up between Mahomes and CJ now that's going to be a great game later in the year but for Baltimore to be the most dominant team in the league last season have a historic margin of victory you know roll to the one seed have really only one awful game all year and then before you have a chance to get the bad taste out of your mouth play that exact same team on a night they're dropping a banner that you thought you were going to drop I thought psychologically was unfair to the Ravens and history also Bears this out so Josh did this that teams to play in the we we can show the graphic dust season opener against the team that ended your season so only one of those teams won the rematch the Broncos and by the way they ended up going to the Super Bowl the ones that lost the rematch what did their season end up looking like hello they when all of them had disaster years literally it is all of them had disaster years and then there is this element they all got losing season except two yeah exactly records Baltimore have a Los record and then there is this this is already the resume when momes plays the Ravens he cooks when Lamar plays the Ravens we say they should have given the ball to Gus Edwards more so okay and Lamar himself Greg is on the record do you like playing bck momes no no that's no I don't like that at all he said it I didn't that was that was you think he you think he was joking you think he's joking now I think it was I think he was having fun with okay well I think it is clearly unequivocally a must-win for Baltimore which is why the league shouldn't have put it in weak one correct it ain't supposed to be easy I'm with you brew thank it's not a must-win but it is a must-win for the Chiefs oh this is so bear with me bear with me really I can't no it is it is a must-win because you're trying to set the stage in the scenery for the season that you hope to be something special you want to set the tone against the team that everyone thought was going to beat you last year that didn't opener against Lamar Jackson all the reasons you just put out there that we are here we're going after this threee and we're blazing through every AFC team every team that comes through Arrowhead is going to get this smoke in this problem that we got period this is how you set the tone if you set the tone byy that with some of the talent that they now have offensively with worthy obviously we know Hollywood Brown won't won't be available but rash Rashid rice is going to be available Travis Kelce hopefully he he continues to do what he did in the postseason Super Bowl champion Juju Smith Shuster you you set the tone you're going to send a message to the league that we mean business and we're going after so can I can I counter that real quick I think Brew might agree with me on this not only is this not a must-win for Kansas City it is actually a can't lose oh yeah if you beat Baltimore then you beat Baltimore you have the tiebreaker you beat him again if you lose it's like well could we ever go on to win a Super Bowl after losing the home opener on the night we dropped the banner oh wait we did it last year yeah and so I'm just with all those mome stats you put up yeah no I get right oh yeah about week one yeah last year it wasn't it did set the tone of like the drop caderas Tony's drop was like oh that will be the tone two superl Champion two time Super Bowl champion cadus that will be the tone for the whole season good defense but it did Propel the Lions to a hot start I think and a great year overall yes and it will propel them this year all the way to the Super Bowl some people have them and it starts now but is this is 100% a must win this is why must wins exist it's it's it's the biggest must-win maybe of the segment but there might be a there's another one coming up C the biggest must win in week one history yes you mean this one coming up no no for the r this one coming up is pretty big this one is a huge mus right I mean we got two big ones all right uh the Eagles trying to shake the supernatural Funk they didn't do it in the pre-season since no starters played so now they'll try to stop a funk that saw them lose seven of their last eight so Brew with no pregnant Paws is this a must win for the Eagles I got to be honest I'm having trouble wrapping my mind around must-win again I I'm not in must-win mode I am thinking more must win I'm going to say no oh my God they're going to lose eight of their last nine games again it's all about if you have a built-in explanation that's big Greg knows that that's why I agreed no with me last time big un EXC you don't have one offense one coordinator that's different you got two coordinators that are different you lost Jason Kelce all right you're playing a good team if they they they have reasons they can look back and say all right we all right and what about the other what about the other seven games they've lost that we've chalked that up to a supernatural F that's over sometimes you just lose a game you don't often listen and Wilds for some reason when it comes to this Eagles streak you either unders shoot or overshoot they have lost six of seven this would be seven counting the playoff game yeah counting the playoff game thought it was 10 or the last 11 six of seven it's six of to the last 16 games they haven't won a game since okay um so here's why I it's also why I think them not playing in the preseason was a terrible decision by serani because they this is obviously a losable game like I might not be as high on the Packers as you know a lot of people I still think they're a good team I know you guys think they could be a very good team a Super Bowl team in your case and so it doesn't even necessarily mean there's something wrong with you if you lose to the Packers on a neutral site but because you have lost the Eagles the the year they went to the Super Bowl won like what I think 17 of the 19 games Jaylen played something like that last year they start 10- one to all of a sudden lose seven of eight which is what this would be it I think there would naturally be real doubt starting to come in of oh it's where we were last year like I I know we kill understandably the Cowboys for their playoff game I fervently believe the most embarrassing performance in last year's playoffs was the Eagles in round one because they quit instantly we but we Lowered Expectations the like they're going to it was but it was a playoff game against a 500 team from the worst division in football that nobody really believed in and it looked like the eagles halfway through the first quarter like okay let's just end this season and it did end in short order and they got blown out they got beaten that game more than the Cowboys lost to the Packers they were both blowouts the other team dominated but they have to get off to a good start why it's a must so I think Greg it's a must win for Philly it's definitely a must-win and it's a must-win for the reasons that you even mentioned Brew like you do have a new offensive coordinator and defense and defensive coordinator and you decided to not experience any type of continuity of play calling getting plays in in the preseason with your starters you decided that you know what our our our joint practices I saw enough our preseason we I saw enough we're good we we'll be ready for the Packers what after after showing us who you were to end the end the season last year this is this is a a storm that is already Brewing that's just ready to just unleash like if if if if in Brazil pending now it already is a must-win pending how if they do lose and how in the fashion of which they lose well yeah you can't get blown out I will give you that this is this is there's so many things jayen Herz we we're we're talking about the relationship with hean serani we're talking about him having a bounceback season I'm hopeful that he can but you better not start off slow you better having sequan Barkley come in and knowing that this was a run first team if you can't then run the ball or if things just don't start the way that you hope and you lose this game this is not going to be good for Philadelphia last year proof that it's a must win they start off 10 and0 was it 10 and0 10 and one all right and and it fell apart so this it's about how you feel more than the I don't think you can I don't think you can win a Super Bowl in week one but you can start to lose it if and the here's the they will be on National Television the F first you know a week from today their next game is at home against the Falcons on Monday Night Football like brw if they lose this game which again losing to the Packers on neutral side there's no shame in it but if they lose this game how hot is serani seat instantly oh yeah immediately immediately home will talk about it but they just can't lose the next two what and they look at that they those next three are very winnable heck then the next four or five the 14 destroyed them the destroy they were the Giants beat him during the supernatural Funk everybody beat they got two new coordinators they've got saquin Barkley so we this is again look can we put the schedule back up again please this is why I believe this is a must-win because if you if if you lose to the Packers or I'm sorry if you don't yeah if you don't win the Packers not better than every one of those teams through week correct correct but you better not lose to these other teams that we don't believe are better than you I age with that at New Orleans I think New Orleans going to stink but at New Orleans early season tough and at Tampa is not an easy game like the the Eagles are not good enough for any road game unless it's against a true drag of the league to be considered a layup and one of those drgs of the leagues the Giants last year beat you during the your Supernatural Funk like I I I think the Eagles are under massive pressure to look not only win but to look good look like the eagles looked for a year and a half yep okay tell you what Greg's Embrace a must win warms my heart I just so happy you're a little rusty you we like we should have done some pre-season must yeah that's what this is they are literally not must wins uh Bri auk new video of him signing I always like these videos you get a special pen and everything yeah it's a quill pin we used to have one of those who said the bit was D that's ridiculous I I don't get give me $120 million give me a real pen I don't want a feather uh four years 120 here's the newest highest paid wide receivers list Justin Jefferson still one CD uh AJ Brown Amar R Brown there's Brandon and then Tyreek uh Greg what does the reunion of iuk and pery mean for uh the 49ers offense well it means they got another weapon that they were counting on and hoping for like look I you see I don't have this team making the playoffs but uh it's not because I don't believe in the talent that's there Brandon auk is definitely going to improve Brock py Brew's guy his his chances of being what Brew believe he's he can be this season um and but with Trent with Trent being out all the things that have gone on I I think it's more than just even iuk that needs to help py p is shown even I know it's preseason know it was training camp he he just hasn't handled the load of man not having those guys you got to you got to be the glue and he just hasn't been the glue I don't know if he's going to be if I don't believe that Josh Allen can do it I'm not going to say that Brock py can do it he's experimenting he's working on is he good enough to experiment yet honest question in practice the okay in practice at at some point in practice like what would you would you ever say you should dial The Experience back like it like interception 123 starts telling him that sure but if Shanahan's fine with it you know this quarterbacks don't try more stuff in the preseason TR exactly I play with well he's been a great one so far he has been he's led the league in pass rate in the last two years he's only two years in League he's 4-2 in the playoffs he led a team to the Super Bowl he's top five MVP candidate see exactly so brw are you a brock py guy I like Brock py yes is is Brock P had no doubt I'll be generous here top eight quarterback plays like it look you know my stance and I don't change what is it from fiveish uhhuh to 13ish it fluctuates it's just like the NBA and you know you agree with me on that it's just like the NBA after those top four or whatever yeah the the the next seven will fluctuate from year to year okay so this is I think that's I on the fluu right up here we're at the top end of let me let me let me think the players said he's the eighth best quarterback in the league yeah I'm asking right uh he's a tier 2 quarterback according to all the execu was 12th yes yeah but well tier two I like it at tier two all right and who was it that had somebody had him in the top 7even he was top four MVP candidates so so far his production has been great and you look in all seriousness I am big on intangibles I get it I I mean serious like know leadership smarts Poise decisionmaking that is what made not that he's on this level but Joe Montana and Tom Brady so great it wasn't the physical gift I get it and that's what py has in space right so I'm once again I'm just asking there's 32 starting quarterbacks eight is the top quart quartile mhm do you think I'm not a ranking like you I mean seriously you do rankings every day I don't do that what I'm saying is can I ask him a question really quick I'm gonna throw a little wrinkle because you're you're claiming to be CJ strer is he top eight is CJ Str top eight yeah Oh I thought you w ranking CJ is better than Brock thought you w rank no but serious CJ is better than I'm not telling you where he is in top eight he's better than so I'm really glad you think I didn't think CJ was better than so wait so I want to stay that there then for a moment why is CJ better than Brock party I think he has a stronger arm I think last year he did it with less Talent around and there you have it okay I I like CJ stra obviously at Ohio State no I I understand P so that's the reason not just the pedig but Ohio State but when I say pedigree I mean Brock P's been better than Trevor Lawrence that's the DAR no no no but I'm saying you're weighing in this is the this is where I feel like we we we all this is what is so asking to me about this conversation I think brew and I agree Brew like but you you are all no cuz you're you're you're always looking for the negative with per no what CU When he answered your questions what I am he did all gold post and has some new questions what I what I have said is by the metrics he's not only clearly top eight he is firmly top five yeah by the if you're a quarterback wins guy he is if you're a stats guy he is if you're all by by those the the things that he can control like but those things he's clearly that CJ stad much smaller sample less less success slightly small worse numbers and yet brew has no problem and I agree with Brew being like well yeah but he's bigger and stronger and was a better college player so I believe in him more that's what I feel no but you got pry 16th in the league yeah yes because I am doing the exact math you're doing I'm just weighing factors more my math does not say 16 no I'm saying but it's he's not better than Jordan love either Jordan love and your and your point was Jordan love we need to see more well he got the same amount of time as CJ St CJ yes I've got Jordan love doing what py did last year leading his team to the Super Bowl good and so so I like what what is like I'm shocked that you are down on per it why because it's productive it's not that I'm down inred it's not that I'm down on and this is where it gets misunderstood I really do like Brock pie I think he's a fine quarterback I think he's a good quarterback okay so but I'm not picking him over all these other quarterbacks if I have to start a franchise to say this is who I'm circling I got to have this guy not doing that go Wilds no are we starting franchises did we get five did we get five you're in the situation you're in all right and he is making the most of hold on Tre Lance couldn't make the most of this no no no he's he's better than Trey Lance and he's better than J he's better than Sam darnold and you know what I'll throw it in he's better than Nick Mullins and Brian Hoyer and CJ Beth he might not be better than all those all the superstars but he certainly plays better than those guys when I watch the games at the end of the game he's got his helmet off shaking hands with a quarterback that might be better than him that he beat and then he's like hey good job I threw for more yards more touchdowns and we won see you later if you make the playoffs I'll be there maybe you can be on Nick Wright's Mahomes Mountain ahead of me for some it's like going to a fight and you got like five other guys that's bigger stronger and can actually fight and I don't have those guys that are stronger exactly you saying because of his weapons but then can I just yes of course he's saying it's because it's team sport then I just don't know I don't name the quarterback who who's done it without weapons other than Patrick M Patrick Mahomes has great weapons he one he had one great weapon the last and he has a genius play caller as well his Run game maybe maybe the genius yes and second place would be Shanahan right not not can't shake hands with people oh and the YouTube channel is storming its way to a million viewers or subscribers excuse me as we uh try to catch Mr Beast also next week predictions week ends but a new season begins we are back with Mahomes mountain and I'm willing to make an announcement right here we're going to have more snow than ever really yes and I'm going to go to the ski shop and buy some new stuff wow I can't wait Rudy you want me to pick you up some goggles yeah some mittens sure some mittens that'd be nice okay we'll do closing the book on predictions week with uh some highlights we're going to try to pick the play of the year or highlight of the year and I'm going to start because I'm still upset that Patrick Mahomes decided to do this without checking the first things first programming schedule I'm going to claim that the play of the year will be a m momes behind the back pass I assume it will happen I like your idea that it was going to happen against the Raiders but I could see it happening even earlier if he gets a little antsy like you know what this thing is there for me I'm going to do it so play the year Patrick Mahomes can I add something to that real quick I think that you're right he will do it but I don't think that will be the Chiefs play of the Year wow I think they are going to run the play that Taylor Drew up I they're going tell the world after the game that she drew it up the defens coord hug against the Raiders or the Broncos and they're going to run that do we has she made an actual play Mahomes said she's been working on okay I think this is brilliant if this if this is the behind the back pass is that the play of the year uh it probably has they need your uh Nick you're going to like this one Anthony Richards oh wow I think he has a dynamic long touchdown run more Dynam a guy yeah Megan guys miss maybe some spins definitely a SP at least one spin couple of Juke moves yeah Anthony Richardson wow all right we're all going quarterback related brew and I are going Young quarterback related Caleb's going to do something like this that where it is run to the left run to the right run back to the left across his body Zing down the field for a touchdown it is going to be very momes against the ners in the third game of his career where it's like announcing himself that I can throw it to any quadrant from any quadrant I like that so I think Caleb if that happens at the 1:00 game the 4:00 game behind the back pass happens okay take Mom's Thunder all that's predictions week we'll see you Monday at 3:00 thanks for joining us Graven Revenge
