Let's get to it joining us now is the man that is a two-time two-time Super Bowl champion from the Pittsburgh Steelers Anthony. The gilliam's favorite football player Ike Taylor. What a pike. Bmac, what's up, baby? Hey, how are you doing big loss last night for the Pittsburgh Steelers against that Buffalo Bills team. Do you think the Buffalo Bills have what it takes to make the Long Haul after watching them last night or you think they're in trouble? I think they're definitely a playoff team the Long Haul know how long you talking about going deep into the playoffs. But you know, we've been talking about the Buffalo Bill since last year just how they defense has been carrying the teammate Josh. Allen quietly has been progressing. Week after week. So you go into a hostile environment. I don't know the last time you won in Pittsburgh. I think that was like in the late 90s and you come out in a close game 17 to 10 and a hostile environment. So it just shows a lot, you know, where the Buffalo Bills and but the head coach is doing over there especially going into environment especially going against the team. We are both were fighting for the wild-card race. Yeah. That was a playoff game last night in the environment was electric. I think something that should be noted before we pivot to another conversation. And TJ watt the defense got introduced before the game. TJ watt was the last person out of the tunnel that's becoming his defense over there. And I think they all feed off of it. That's a very good defense for the Pittsburgh Steelers excited to see what they do going forward, especially in future years. Buffalo Bills good squad. Let's move forward now. Hey, did you see the clip that came out from the Cincinnati Bengals security guy between he and the videographer and what did you think of that entire thing in my eyes now? I might be wrong. I'm not a hundred percent sure. There's any thing that they can really pull from that. Video I might be wrong. What are your thoughts on it? I yeah, it's too much you can pull but the whole thing is why? Yeah, I agree special all these Gates that's been that's been going on with the New England Patriots. Like why y'all keep doing this why y'all keep getting cold? You can still not still signals, but you can get an idea on what a guys doing on the field. You can look at personnel and kind of get a ideal on the tip or Tennessee and what I mean by personnel and you notice Pee Mak like who's coming in on nickel if your office who's coming in on a dime so you A tendency or a tip on what a defense coordinator wants to do depending on who's in and out of that defense unless somebody's injured. So but the whole thing on videotape it is like man, we already share video tape anyway with no sound so all of all the people who don't know football players, we watched tape but the tape the tape doesn't have sound so you go off with Personnel you go over formations and that's how you try to gather your tips and tendencies, but it's like every couple of years I guess. Every five years man, some kind of gate comes out and it's coming from one team. Yeah, and the interesting thing is the only other thing that serving caught up anything was Josh McDaniels when he's at the Broncos who Josh McDaniels comes directly from that it's so intriguing because they are the greatest Dynasty in sports. I'm not just saying in football but in sports do you think if this footage was a little bit more telling and people that actually know football and embedding football thought that there was more to get out of this and it would be a much bigger story today because it I feel like it's not even that big of a story right now. People are just like, yep, that's the Patriots things like that are going to happen. Everybody who thinks they're cheaters are still thinking they're cheaters everybody. It doesn't still doesn't it's not that big of a story right now. Yeah, but of course there's why especially when you give coach Sean Payton, you know that pillar to it that penalty and that fine for the bounty hunt. So it's like you break your break them off you break them off arm and a leg and all y'all doing this give a slapper slap on the wrist for the New England Patriots, you know, when you find a billion that ain't letting you find a big enough Island a thousand dollars three hundred thousand dollars. They know but jet fuel gas money. That's all that is, but it is like man this Every couple of years but then you get a situation which you know coach Sean Payton said he knew nothing about the bounty hunting you you take an arm and a leg off of him and we all know under coach Belichick. He knows everything that go on that facility regardless on what do you want to believe it or not? So my whole thing is why you know why y'all keep getting caught why y'all keep doing this that's a great question. A lot of people ask that. Here's a question I have for you. I guess a very successful member of one of the most successful defenses. Of recent history that Pittsburgh Steelers defense where you guys were on cover of magazines and everything for good reason these 49ers defense was heralded as the greatest in modern history, especially early now granted they are injured in banged up but in the last two weeks, they've given up 10 touchdowns and yesterday with 70 yards to go Matt Ryan one timeout up five. They let up a touchdown to Julio Jones. Is there cause for worry in San Fran about that defense going forward or is this just something that can happen? No, that's just something that can happen and it wasn't like it was a hot. Go day, so it's just matter ice, you know got the ice in his veins on that one drive and why not find the Julio and they wind up scores something. They haven't been doing all year but against the dominant defense and yeah, they defense is nicked up, but you know what man if I'm just going to give up 20 22 points in the game and lose and they came on a last drive as defensive coordinator. I'm just going to say they got it. It's not like people have been driving have been having a game when it drives on the same frame for 89 and throughout the whole season. It just happens. So it sucks. It happens. It's late because now you go from controlling your destiny. Hopefully getting home-field advantage to them that damn near been a wild card. That's how tough that the vision is over there in the NFC. Yeah. They asked these hot I think the Cowboys are going to win that against the eagle is Russell Wilson and Seattle Seahawks get a big win against the Panthers which pumps them up to 1 I believe in potential home field advantage. Have you played in Seattle? And how big is home field advantage in the playoffs? Yeah, I'll play this. Yeah, you know, you know what I tell, you know still look I know I know the Cowboys are America's team, but still is our the nation team. Could we just got everybody area was so it was like man, we I felt if you're like a home game T-Mac like Pee Mak when went to Seattle and feeling like a hunk and only thing is man you all are well over there on that North on the northwest side, you know, you damn near couple hours away from Camden a couple hours away from Alaska. It was a whole different world. Salt like man what we at like the fish taste the fish tastes better the fish tastes like man, it just came out the water or the eat. So it's like man, everything is fresh. Everything is cool. But that stadium that 12-man Stadium. It's always rocking. So when you go in there, you best believe man. You ain't playing against 11. You better add that 12-person. That's everybody sitting in that stain. That's why that home field advantage in the NFC is going to be so important. You got Lambo potentially home-field Superdome potentially don't feel Seattle potentially home field and then saying Frank and even when it back in it's either a travel issue a noise thing or Lambo Hallowed Ground. I mean, it's going to be tight over there in the NFC Ike let's talk a little bit about who's going to get fired who's gonna have their job Jay Gruden fired. Ron Rivera fired Freddy kitchens. Probably fired matinee. You probably fired Jason Garrett if they don't want to Super Bowl fire, there's going to be a lot of jobs wide open up for grabs. Do you think a college coach like Urban? Mayer who's been spotted out the Redskins game and his name has been linked to other jobs would do well as an NFL coach and what does it take to be a good NFL coach Ike Taylor as a two-time Super Bowl champion. I think the best the best fit and I don't like to call the coach's job, but that's just how it goes. I think the best fitted Dallas, you know, because he's been with Zeke he understands it's a nice situation. It's not too much for him to do going into Dallas if coach Jason Garrett wines of getting fired. You have a quarterback got a young tight end whose approval right now or if you want to keep Jason waiting on boys just to show the young tight is how it's done. You got a defense just looking at how they play last night, they continue to play and develop because they're young they can be excited. And that's the difference you're looking for known that side. So I think just going into a perfect situation. It will be doubted for Coach. Urban Meyer. The only thing is Jerry Jones. Yeah. That's the guy you gotta that's the guy you gotta deal with it. So in a bad thing about Sad thing about that. He is the head guy. He wants all the controls. So, you know, you're going to make a stand when you need to talk to him and like and be like look man. I'm control of this football is football team. This is what I want to do or you just going to have to go with Jerry Jones says and does Jerry's been the GM since 1994 for the Dallas Cowboys Not So Long by God, there's no other GM in history. He's been the Kryptonite if we can just stay out the way Jerry Jones when you want to talk Talk about business minded being business savvy. There's nobody better than Jerry. I give them that all day. Well far as like football operations and just from a GM standpoint Jerry. Has it done bad from a GM standpoint. I got a tip my hat to Jerry on the guys. They've been drafted and he haven't done bad at all. It's just now it's a dark cloud always what it seems over the head coach's head agreed. I agree. I'm giving you all this Lee way. I'm letting you drafted. As you won't you can't even let me coach a hundred percent. You always got something to say. Well Jerry literally always has something to say and everything. He says is always going to get magnified because it's Jerry Jones and that's how he wants it. That's how he likes it. That's how he's created this 5 point something billion dollar franchise. But if you look at what happened last night with the way that's are yesterday with the way the team has built in the way. He said like hey, this team is built for the Long Haul. Do you think a college coach is a guy that could work not only for the Cowboys but in the NFL it is not worked in the past. You look at guys like Saban Petrino these authoritarian type coach Auto have not shown. Oh has not worked in the NFL. Do you think it's something that Urban could work in the NFL? Yeah, and the reason why I think it will work is because that's what it's going if you just look at what Lamar Jackson in the OSI is doing over there like the OC wind up having four or five different College OCS come and him sit down and talk to him and ask him. How would you look how will you use on the more Jackson? See the problem is these offensive coordinators? They've been stubborn they've been stuck in their ways and they don't want to learn. So now you you have a head coach who's already in a college mentality or cow. This mode and now what you're going to do, you're going to go back to the Mississippi State days with that. You can go back to the Ohio State days. You will look at your office line, which you always had at Ohio State you can look at Zeke and you can be like, you know, what this is the same kind of system. Let me tweak what's good for Zeke. Let me tweak was good for that. Let's go back to this college system. Let's simmer down or some of the terminology. Let's make these guys comfortable. Let me make deck not have to think so much. Let me get a ball the Zeke and parlor and we're going to Win some ball games, but when you have a OC who can think like that? Yes, you're going to succeed when you have all these old school old OCS and they don't want to change and they stuck in their ways and they get a Personnel guy who can't do it. They do it for them. They system. They don't want to change so it hurts to Michael Vick's in the long run. They her surrounded Cunningham's in the long runs. But when you see what they're doing with Lamar Jackson when you have OC who changes up his whole offensive scheme or special guy like him. Are Jack see you see what they doing? Yeah, I think I think the modern football is changing right out from underneath a lot of the old heads. I'll be excited to see if Urban Meyer who by the way by all accounts has been a great coach everywhere he goes and whether or not Scandal follows or not. He's been a great head coach. I'll be excited to see if NFL guys react the same way to him. That'll be fun story to turn out. Okay. Now before we let you go and we can't thank you enough for your time here at Kansas City Chiefs win yesterday, and that's no was something I thought was awesome. I mean the ability to win not only on a fast track, but also Also in that Blizzard yesterday LeSean McCoy has this ability to control his body and Slick services. I don't think a lot of people have seen Patrick Mahomes can throw the ball in that tough weather which are going to have to do in the playoffs regardless of where they have to go. Did you learn anything from that Chiefs team yesterday? It makes you think you know what that team could beat the Ravens the current Ravens. That's the Ravens in the past that they beat where they're throwing 50 times, but the current Ravens in that AFC Championship race. It is if it's snowing they got action because we all know pat pat. You don't want it snowing you got that you got action when you punting and kicking the ball. Oh, yeah when it's freaking cold and it's raining. It's a little bit different. It's a little bit different. I don't know what it is with the are so snow is fun to play it you get seven studs and what I mean by seven studs you get your cleats that Dane their inch and a half longer you're able to grow up you get Shady McCoy. We saw in snowstorms what he was doing Buffalo. He was acting like He was ice-skating, you know, so say it is just that kind of guy when it snows when it's around this time. You put snake you put shading in the game password when Holmes you just a little guys in the pregame those guys ain't nobody having fun. So all head might be like man, they're not taking the game serious, but they don't want to win not just a whole new generation. So sometimes as old-school guy, you just gotta change and accept man. These Heidi's got business how this generation these guys relax before the game. Then when you see when they go into the game in a way to before me be like, okay, so they take it as serious but they ain't taking it too seriously. So well, they feel like they planned stuff. So that's where homes and Company. Yeah, man, if it's snowing and it's clear they got action if it's raining, you know, what Baltimore want to do. They want to run the ball down your throat and then want to play good defense. That's so interesting to think about. I love snow so much more than rain. So you just basically painted everything but do you think with all their weapons that they're the only team that could beat Lamar Jackson in the AMC or does this Houston Texans team that could sneak in? Do you think they could give Lamar Jackson some problems as well? Even though they got slaughtered by them a couple weeks ago. It's all about mashups. So I don't look at records. I think I think a team that can give the Baltimore Ravens problems is the Buffalo Bills to the Buffalo the Buffalo Bills Bills play really good defense. They just need an extra running back you and we saw what Singletary is doing Young singer Terry he lit up. Up the Pittsburgh Steelers closer to 90 yards. I think he had 87 yards or 21 touches and we keep forgetting a the the Hall of Fame God whenever he wants to retire Frank going what he's doing over there. So they play Smash Mouth when it comes down to the running game and we forget that Josh a delight 6 5 to 40. He's big dude. Yes. I ain't nothing small and he's athletic so, you know, they got a three headed monster if they really want to do it and you got brown who's coming into his own at the Position for their defense man. They they've been stingy don't Boys Don't boy saying man give me that we won't dad then they Peter Pan and everybody right now. So I'll look at matchups nothing. That would be a good match up because they got the same kind of recipe is just you have a special player at the quarterback position in Lamar Jackson hiker Wordsmith. My brother. You were asked Peter panting Rob from the rich give the poor. I respect the hell out of it. They're the only ones that have been able to contain Baltimore by the way did a couple weeks ago got a chance to talk to a lot of Bill staff. They feel very good about their team as they should it was great performance last night great performance today by you. Mr. Ike Taylor. I appreciate you man. Hey, thanks for having me on the show Pete back. Hey cheers, man, two-time Super Bowl champion. I feiler Good conversation are always a family joints. Hey, if there's snow they got action. That's a good point though. It is snow is just a different animal. It almost feels warmer when it's snowing by the way when it's just rain and I don't know. I'm no scientist ssion Gary we talked about this no math with this no scientist, but it feels warmer whatever it's snowing then whenever it is freezing rain and it seems that temperature it just Everything feels a lot. It's it's more fun. I mean it really is range is miserable. So it does your New York, but I know that I don't know how many of those guys how many of the like your teammates would like if you played like a big snowstorm like that was like legit like the first time they never seen snow exactly. There's there's a lot of people a lot of Florida boys right lot of California got now granted. I guess it's snowing everywhere these days. Yeah. Well our main shout out to the Earth. We're just let everybody get some snow. I still think it's potentially us stepping on Earth making it closer to the core which is hotter. So it's eating up everything else really from the inside out or its rocket ships puncture and Holes in the ozone. We just been sending ships out there or it could be the cows Fortin or the SUV's. I mean there's an option what options are I don't know which one's right built night tells me it's a torch basically a show. I watch a video where he towards the Earth. I'm not smart enough to know any of that stuff, but I do know that whenever you see snow for the first time it's a joyous occasion. Oh, yeah, and he had chance to play in it. It almost feels like it's raining though. Everybody's dealt with miserable rain, you know, it is a little bit of a game changer. I like watching the Chiefs. I didn't know people were even gonna be upset about that. No before that and he was right there was people that were like talking bad about it's like what the hell this is a game. We're doing doing surgery. No, we're playing a game. Jeez. I hate support for the patent Act V show 2.0 podcast comes from our friends at manscaped.

Which would obviously play a pretty pivotal role later on in the years later in his whole thing greatest called shot in history. So I 4 1776 Babe Ruth pointed that thing we're out of here quite a war and here we are in the United States of America. No good for us good for everybody including New England who gets a big win last yesterday over the Cincinnati Bengals that team the defense is unbelievable Stephon Gilmore running away picking off. The defensive player of the year. I think there's other names that could pop up right now around League TJ Watson guy, you can talk about who's been dominant, but they're probably not going to make the playoffs now I can talk about Minka Fitzpatrick has turned around the Steelers whenever he got there. They're probably not going to make the playoffs though. Stephon Gilmore in that defense has one game for the Patriots. They've won the games for the Patriots and he's the star of the show impossible to throw against him only a 12.2 percent completion rate or something ridiculous. Andy Dalton tried him a couple times last night. I don't know. Who is it is joining us now is a man who's a legend a man is a friend of the show. Call us games won Super Bowls Legend marks layer with what's up. Stink. That was all you buddy man. It's always good to catch up with you. Well, you know what? You just mentioned TJ. What? Yeah, you know what I was thinking you got three brothers. I mean think about that Three Brothers all made the NFL they are all stars as far as I'm concerned. But here's what I don't understand. You got tjy and you got JJ Watt. Yeah. You have Derek like hitting the bdd wall. But what the hell what the hell happened there? Yeah, just like the was he like the last one and you just got lazy or maybe it was the first one he got lazy on the next to like I can't give a whole name. Let me just go with initials. I'm exhausted from having all these babies. I don't know what's happened in there. Well, you know, I'm not going to question what family because I think they did pretty good. But I do think they mailed it in a little bit with old Derek who's a little bit different by the way, the only guys playing D offense to he's a fullback. Back, I assume you put him at the end. He's going to wreck shop because that's what TJ wat does and JJ Watt? Okay, I can't wait to get your take on this cannot wait to get your take on this Kansas City Chiefs players. We're having a snowball fight before the game against Denver Broncos yesterday people are up in arms about it, but I learned a lot from that Chiefs team yesterday in a game including the snowball fight with how loose they were going into the game. Did you hate it or love it? No, I loved it. Yes. I like the Kansas City Chiefs. This is what they know. They'd be The Denver Broncos down nine straight times, huh? We match up well with them we understand what they are. They're not even close to us and in here's the deal, you know, everybody sits and says, well, how does you know, how do you let Travis Kelce beat you for 11 catches or whatever the hell it is and that and how do you let like I'm watching that game last night. I get home from calling my gain. I was doing Tampa at Detroit. So I fly home and so I watch the game last night because I get to come into my radio show here in Denver and Talk about it and I can't tell you that in a day and age where everything is three-step drops five step quick get her out into the flats. You know, the Kansas City Chiefs are going Five Guys up front 500 protection our five will take whoever you bring one-on-one across the board. We don't care and we'll take a seven step drop and we'll let our weight. They like a deep route will go with a, you know, a go on a go with a dig underneath it or whatever something that takes 3-4 seconds to throw. And our quarterbacks just going to stand back there and pick you apart. We're getting five guys out of the routes every single time. I bet you 90% of the time. They didn't keep one at striated offensive player in it was Five Guys in the routes 90% of the time. They just have this they don't fear the Broncos. They don't fear Von Miller. They don't fear anybody when it comes to this football team. They just thought I'd work. Hey, you know what? They are Global Jim. We're better than you Mark's lands were numbers. 69 was the center for the long time for the Broncos won a lot of games with Elway up underneath him. I mean a guy that loves the trenches we talk about the Baltimore Ravens offense of line a lot because they are damn good. We'll talk about Lamar Jackson here in a little bit. We talked about the Dallas Cowboys offense line because they've invested a lot of money in them. You're saying the Kansas City Chiefs offensive line does not get enough credit and they're going to be a key to this whole thing going down the stretch. Yeah. Well, I think that you look at their two tackles and Mitchell Schwartz has a really Player and for whatever reason whether he just understands what Von Miller is they just have no problem leaving those guys locked up one-on-one and basically saying we're getting guys we're getting so many guys out in the routes that have so much speed and athleticism it which is going to we're just going to attack your defense. There will be somebody that's going to be wide open and obviously my home is going to find them. So yeah can't see kids to be able to do that when everybody you know uses an extra tight. Bend or a running back or they turn protection to make sure they take Vaughn out there just one-on-one the whole game. They're just like whatever it is. We're not we just don't we don't fear you as an old school guy. How much do you love this Baltimore Ravens offense? They got nine guys on the line and then people are popping off for go routes and Lamar Jackson just an extra player with the ball. They don't you don't have to account for 10 on 11. It's 11 on 11 every single time. It's revolutionising the game changing the game. I think we're going to see a lot more people. Try it in the years to come. I'm just not sure how many Lamar Jackson's are are in the world. How much do you love this one? Baltimore Ravens offense? Absolutely love it. I mean, you know the one thing if you split the field in half and let's say, you know, you're going to play eight-man fronts when you're playing the Ravens, right? So you'll have one single high safety. So if you cut it in half what they end up doing to you is they end up putting up a receiver a tight end on one side. And then what they'll do is they'll start that receiver in motion. They'll stop the ball before he gets to the Opposite side they'll snap it when he said about the like let's say they're running to the left. They'll snap when he's at the right tackle and the timing will be stationary like in a in, you know, kind of a hip alignment off the line of scrimmage right behind the tackle when they snap it those guys will start there at the end they'll line up and they'll be over on the left hand side. Then you'll have Lamar Jackson faking a handoff to the running back and now all of a sudden where you had, you know, three guys on that side of the line of scrimmage blocking for guys now, we'll sit you have seven. For huh? And it's like their ability to gain blockers at the point of attack. They don't worry about Block in the back side. And then the other thing they've done is they've really melded their passing game with their running game and they've eliminated things that are standard operating procedure in the NFL that Lamar Jackson doesn't throw as well. So you get a lot of like what they call X drifts on the backside off a play-action. So it's just a single receiver running a little drift route about 12. Yards, it's a you got one route you're throwing and then they run a bunch of vertical routes and he throws them exceptionally well, and because you get so much man-to-man coverage and you get so many eight-man Franz you run for verticals against the cover three with a single high safety and you're going to eat up the seems like that safety can't cover both of those vertical routes and you get a bunch of one-on-ones wide open and he is absolutely Dion. He's just a visitor ating defense and so like what they've established for him. What they've what they've put together as an offense for him is unbelievable. I'll tell you the other thing is complementary football was oh, yeah, they they they match it with their defense. Their defense is going to Blitz you a hundred percent of the time because they know, you know, you get done with the first quarter and you've had two possessions and you're like shoot a normal game is 12 positions. We've had two were down 14 to nothing now all said we got to throw it every time and now all they're doing is bringing the would let their Corners play, you know 0 I'd say hey, you know we're going to come after you. I just love the mentality of we're going to punch you in the face and if you can beat us great, but you know what you're going to come right away limping with a bloody nose. And that's who the Ravens are they are. They are. I mean, they're bullies. They're an absolute schoolyard bullies structure and the defense around having a lead. He can have a lot of success two coats that are for a long time. They get Dwight Freeney Robert Malthus Jude on is there a guy right now? Let's assume they're going to bring in another pass rusher do if they understand that this often. Continue to go now. Let's talk about the AFC. Let's pivot here a little bit stink. There's a little controversy in the NFL world with some cameras and videographers coming from a dynasty the greatest Dynasty in the history of sports. Is there anything to make from that whole thing or do you think it's just bad timing by guy who didn't know what the hell he was doing up there in New England. I don't think anything is by accident. Oh, like like I just I find it one. I find it hard to believe. Leave that you put yourself back in that position. Yeah, I'll let you know. Let me ask you this. You know, those those white collar crime Wall Street guys. Like how much is enough like those guys? Don't quit cheating when they when they're billionaires, right? They're like, well, I can become a multi billionaire or I can become right so they don't stop cheating until they get caught. And the bottom line is the thing that was fishy for me more than anything else. As soon as the videographer was caught he goes riding to do I can delete it. I can't delete it. Yeah, we're doing you knew you were tilting was something was Askew and I just tell you I always I always look at those situations and say hey, I'm not asking you to do it. I'm not demanding that you do it, but, you know if some video rolled across my desk. As a man signals on it. I certainly take a look at it. I don't know what's going on there, but it's certainly that video certainly does not look. Well. I don't think it bodes. Well for the New England Patriots based upon their past history. Hey, I think there's a great quote says pigs get fed Hogs get slaughtered and that is the that is the essential agreed my friend. Everybody has it. Let's stay with the Patriots that offense. They get a big win 37:10 over the the bungles yesterday, but a lot of people Saying the Patriots offense didn't have much to do with that Gilley lock Stephon Gilmore in the defense. You had to kill Harry showed up in my eyes. There was a couple throws Tom Brady made the made me think like okay, he's still got it thinking still go deep. They've been doing a lot of thinking dunk. They lack that explosive play does this team have what it takes to make another run at the playoffs or is the dynasty of all dynasties dead in the NFL? Yeah, I won't until there until they're buried. You know, we just have this propensity of this day this desire to throw, you know, too Roeder over the top of a body that's not a corpse yet. You know, they're just like let's just throw dirt on Tom Brady. He's gonna die. It's like the scene from what was it? It was Monty Python's Holy Grail bring out your dead, you know, bring out shook her head. I'm not this guy and we're trying to bury him alive. And I just won't I just am like they find a way to develop guys. They find a way to get their guys to play and game. Plan guys, and you know if Harry starts to play well couple that with the fact that Julian Edelman is still a force on the inside can be you know, all of a sudden that's all it takes for them when they get in a rhythm like that. That's all it takes for them to be really good. We know how good that defense is and like you mentioned they've just been outstanding Gilmore's just been incredible so I won't I won't bury them. I refuse to yeah me neither. I won't bury him strictly because I think the teams that I've been lucky to play on against the Patriots is like 215 to like 20 or something like that in favor of the Patriots. I'm not going to be like their dad their done barium. It's like well, let's see if they can figure it out whether they're filming people or not. I mean, I have no idea why they've been so good. I'm excited to see how the NFL handles that let's pivot here. The NFC East is on the line this weekend a pivotal playoff spot in the NFC, which is hard to get right now the NFC east by rule gets one. Dallas Cowboys looked unbeatable yesterday, but they've been so inconsistent as well as the Philadelphia Eagles who are riddled with injuries taking each other on who do you think wins the NFC East? Who do you think wins this game? I'm a you know, I have been saying that I bought the Philadelphia Eagles are going to get it together and figure it out, but they're back and they're secondary. They just I mean, they just cannot survive. I do think that Dallas is a more talented football team. I think they're a better football team. That that was an impressive Victory because you know, I think based upon their last couple of weeks and how he inept they have been to see them come out and do what they did to the Rams. I'm going to go with Dallas. I think they're I just think personnel-wise and health-wise and all that. They're just a better football team. I agree and I think it's I think Carson Wentz and shown really glimpses of greatness and why everybody loves them and Philadelphia, they love them there. He's made some incredible plays but for Me too too much coming into Philly with the Dallas Cowboys, especially with The Clapper not only being a Clapper in a Smiler on the sidelines but was able to strategize and get that team to win over. The Rams have been pretty good. Let's chat about the NFC real quick before we let you go. And I can't thank you enough for joining us. I love our conversations. You have such a good brain and a handsome face. I mean got to get that in every time I talk to you the NFC is going to run through who that Niners lost with that defense facing Matt Ryan and 70 yards up five give up a touchdown. Kind of a wake-up call for them. Even though they're hurt. How about the Green Bay Packers Aaron Rodgers in his press conference said we don't have a lot of respect from everybody in the league. I think that was a message to rest of his teammates. Okay, we got to get going Russell Wilson travels to Carolina gets a big win. The Saints are still the Saints. I mean who's gonna control the NFC who's going to get home field advantage? And how big of a deal is it? Yeah, how about it? I mean, it's just incredible coming down to the wire. I you know, I've been kind of on the Saints all year long. I think it's I think the Saints are end up going to end up getting that done. Done like it Seattle is just one of those teams, you know talking to Pete Carroll. He had talked to his team. He talked to his team and put together kind of a video of their 2013 season and and they had nine one score games that they found a way to win and he's like, you know guys, this is where you learn about yourself. This is the toughness kind of factor and how you learn how to win things and you know that's been very much this way for them. This year is just these These really tight close games. They found a way to get that done. They're going to be a tough out. The Niners have some injury issues as you know, but like they're all like it's kind of one of those Any Given Sunday deals man, but if I had to put money on it right now, I just think the Saints are going to be the one that ends up at the top based upon where they are in their last two games and they get home-field advantage throughout the playoffs and they started The bad beats they've taken the last year's. Come on. Don't start the football Gods smile on the Saints as a you deserve to go to a Super Bowl. Right? I mean, this is something like this Karma going on there at some point the football Gods show up. Now are they punishing the Saints for that garbage halftime onside kick that they ran against our team potentially. Maybe they'll be punished forever for that. But the Minneapolis Miracle followed by the Phantom pass interference. It wasn't called. I mean, it's some point Drew Brees and his heart desires to become backhoe. Down there. They look really good. Last question. How's that? Chili going? Are we still selling chili or what's going on over there? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah Chile. We got K so wrong long, you know, I mean I'm sliding into I'm sliding into Costco's cross, you know, smiling and and baking people eat my products that you know, I do a little bit about it or not again, how do I listen? Let me tell you something and and just in regards to the food Business, but I know been had I known then what I know now, I would invest in something else, right but what you know, but I'm still grinding baby still Guided by not only your granny. You got a good brain in you're a good dude. I can't thank you enough. Mr. Slash. Have a great holiday. Hopefully, we'll talk to you soon sir anytime and I've been I've been really enjoying as I'm prepping my games on Saturdays watching you on on the bit Saturday show.

Okay, I'll give us like this dude is nuts. Hey shrimp if I died right there. They're pretty legendary stuff. Don't you think they probably make a statue of me. You know, I'm right. That's it. That would be a pretty decent way to go out dude, but the statute would be underneath the waters deep. So if you get my whole life sighs, I mean it would have been three feet of top of that 7-foot Pat. Hey, I appreciate She ate you ladies and gentlemen Mark Slayer. Thank you, Mark. Okay. So I Taylor join us today to times your bullshit marks are three times or Beauchamp. If Drew Brees is baby, aren't there. We have six examples potentially on the show, but Drew Brees ruined it what you're hearing is a little pain in the ass dog barked at absolutely. Nothing potentially awaking all the other animals in the house. And I apologize for interrupting this incredible conversation about something that's magical. I assume but I have to tell you that it's that time of year again. People are traveling Gathering cooking arguing and eating way too much. I'm fat.

I might be 300 pounds in the morning, but that's what this this time of your calls for ain't that right Sam.

So Winter Wonderland back in Indianapolis as it was in Kansas City yesterday for that Chiefs game Who by the way the Kansas City Chiefs they can win in a It out they can win on Fast Turf and now we they prove that they can win in the middle of a blizzard that Chiefs team could be getting hot at the right time especially in this AFC. It's going to be difficult with all those weapons that they have in Andy Reid a beautiful mind coming fresh off that by week. They've been a very different team and yesterday with Tyrann Mathieu that defense getting good. I learned a lot about that Kansas City Chiefs team yesterday. Yeah. I mean if their defense keeps playing the way it has been no one's going to want to play them in the playoffs. Everyone obviously knows about their offense quick-strike mismatch. Patches everywhere but if their defense starts playing, you know consistently like it has these last couple weeks. They're going to be an incredibly tough out. I think I said this we said this in and we dive a little deeper into the things that matter that a lot of people struggle off is not matter sure when Tyrann Mathieu one after Ryan Clark on Twitter and he said keep that energy about talking about about the defense. I think Tyrann Mathieu knew that they had a good defense. I think Tyrann Mathieu the honey badger knew that they were going to come together and they've been doing so and since that bio, The offense is look refreshed or refreshed revitalized and everything like that. They lost a couple games early two teams that we didn't think they were going to lose Pat Mahomes gets hurt. Then that need patella pops out pops back in and gets that by week. They've looked like an entirely different team and this AFC now is very interesting because the Baltimore Ravens obviously the frontrunners obviously Obviously Buffalo Bills basically won a playoff spot last night in that win over the Pittsburgh Steelers at Heinz Field on Sunday Night Football. The college's rough night. That's our guy though me you're gonna fall through every once in a while the rookie quarterback. What do you want from the guy? Yeah. But I had a couple bad puns. Yeah, I was there. I mean it was just a rough I should have been there. I shouldn't want defense though defense need for thing. They unbelievable, but the bills basically have a playoff spot now and they just play the Patriots here in potentially really do some damage. But let's assume the Patriots get in have especially after what happened with The Bangles there the Kansas City Chiefs the Texans yesterday that game against the Titans to basically win. The AFC South was a damn good one. I watch that thing. It was a slugfest ER I mean they were throwing bombs at each other. Massive plays would happen then it turn over at the very last moment for scoring blocked field goal the whole thing. And then in the second half it became a little bit of a shootout that Texans team Rex Ryan said, he doesn't believe in the defense but the offense whenever they run the ball at El Guapo is his Twitter name he ran for a hundred and some yards yesterday whenever they run 45% of the time I guess the Texans are undefeated and whenever Fuller and DeAndre Hopkins are on the field DeShaun Watson is like number 1 or number 2 Cube yarn. The entire NFL so that team has weapons but they get blown out of nowhere and that falls on the coaching by the way, and I've said this before and I think I'll say it again Bill O'Brien potentially fired if they don't go on a big run here and I said that in production meeting and get up this morning. They said who's going to fire them. They don't have a GM and I was like, I gotta be causing their like they don't have an owner either that mean it's son says Bill O'Brien, lets punch Texas forever. Is that how it works? Like who? How's it work? I was mine, but I was like, I think he's gonna get fired. They're like by who they don't have like a border. Something who I guess has done is technically the owner but he's probably going to I don't know II would assume Bill O'Brien is going to have to win or he's gonna get fired. But I guess the front office right now isn't complete questionnaires. Nobody has a clue what's going to happen, but that seemed can make a little bit of a run in the playoffs or that can lose by 50 early which it could happen. But the Kansas City Chiefs team they seem to be peaking now at the right time last year D Ford was six inches away from the Kansas City Chiefs probably going on to win the Super Bowl if we look at how the Rams played in that Super Bowl. I think they're getting back in there which has been for us. They've kept the Chiefs in the top 10 and every Power a kerchief sir. Number 16. They just lost their third straight game which they shouldn't have lost. The Chiefs are now the 17 they just lost again and it's because they have so many weapons. They have a good coach or as a good mind. And now that the defense is coming together now that it Patrick Mahomes is back to being healthy that's in can be a real threat in the AFC. But the MC right now is Lamar Jackson show. We all know that but I'm excited to see it come together. Yeah. I mean if They're one of those few offenses who you know that they have a very very good chance to score on every possession. So they really only need to make like one or two opportunistic stops on defense. It's just very very tough playing against a team like that, especially when they're all clicking at the same time. By the way. Now the NFC the NFC is gonna be awesome to watch. I got a bolo tie on today in the big city because Cowboys won the the NFC East good for the Cowboys the Cowboys have learned how to play. The football get the Cowboys look like the team early whenever they were expectations were very high for the Cowboys going in this year every year. They're over height every year they are so because that's what Jerry Jones is, he's a promoter the Dallas Cowboys yesterday look like a complete football team Michael Lombardo came on the show on Friday. Instead I got the Cowboys over the Rams. I said, what are you talking like? Mr. Lombardi? I trust you because you have a good record all that stuff. But this is stupid. He's like no. No, I think we're in a good spot Jared Goff look awful. I mean, he looked absolutely gospel. I mean it was just bad that Rams team. I don't know what the hell they lost a couple offensive lineman, but that team there so it beat the Seahawks a week before then. He get molly-whopped by the Cowboys and if the Cowboys can continue playing like this, maybe they're peaking at the right. My mother maybe all those weeks of Jason Garrett looking in depth all those weeks of Jerry Jones every single word that he said being a held onto on whether or not he was going to fire everybody all those weeks of hell and all those weeks of clouds brought the sunshine. It may be that Sunshine is whenever you feed Zeke and when you get Zeke going and Paula are going and you've invested 400 million dollars in the offense of line and the running backs that opens everything up for deck Prescott who has a weapon whose life. Our Achilles not Tyree kill, maybe back in the day was a little bit closer Tavon Austin find some space Amari Cooper there and Jason Witten pulling rabbits out of his head that Cowboys defense is coming together old veteran Shawn Lee's making picks now. They're got in the way maybe the Dallas Cowboys are getting hot at the right time. I know they're going to enhance these are going to beat the Philadelphia Eagles. Carson Wentz. Very good football player. Okay, Carson Wentz is a very good football player. I think he's proven that I'm plenty of occasion. So I think he's Elite. Yeah, I don't know 13 injured players. That's a lot. They're riddled with injury. And Carson Wentz is brought them back from the dead a couple weeks in a row. They've played zero snaps with the lead the last two weeks and he won both games, right? They played 0 snaps with the lead in the last two weeks and they've won both games. So the Redskins gave them problems Redskins gave the Packard problems that what everybody thought the world was ending. It turns out the Redskins might be pretty good Dwayne Haskins look great. You might be a real player, but who will talk about whether or not Urban Meyer's going to be that guy? There and if you'll do well in the NFL, but the Eagles I just think too many injuries too little too late in at the Cowboys get up in Philadelphia. I know that fan base is a passion when I appreciate respect that. I mean, I loved Invincible. I love Vince Papale. I like coming coming out of the bar. I like the the garbage Kickin Kickin Kickin Philadelphia phenomena. I like him. I like everything about the Philadelphia fan base. I even like that ugly-ass hockey mask thought you guys got I respect it. A passionate group of fans, but at the Cowboys get up which has been the mo of the Eagles. They've been down early if the Cowboys get up and what is an NFC East championship game that fanbase will turn on the Eagles. It'll basically become a rock and I'm thinking the Cowboys in my bolo tie pull away with the nrc's home playoff game and who knows what's gonna happen? Very probably lose by 30 against every other NFC team because the rest of the MC is damn good but I congratulations to the Cowboys won in the NFC East doesn't that drive you insane? Saying if you're either a Jerry Jones or be a fan of the Cowboys, it's like yeah, we've been waiting for this all year and you finally put it together and week 15 like what happens, you know, I've been a part of some teams that were very good and some teams that were very bad in a never made sense to me. I never understood why everybody shows up one day and doesn't is it strategy? Is it scheme? Is it motivation? It was a highlight film he put together. Yeah. Well that happens every week. Like if you win you get a highlight film the night before that's just kind of something like Bruce Arians used to say hey next week. I want speakers and I want to highlight video. Let's go that means you won so when you win you get that right and it's nice to get a little refresher on how good you are how dominant you are and things like that and I think by the way great coaching invitation Garrett's motivational video is what turned them around. Will they be able to maintain it? I think they will for at least another week. I think they get a win in Philadelphia. I think they win the NFC east and then when they host a home game and Jerry world, I think they potentially lose by no less than 28 But for the week, I am a die-hard Cowboys fan. Let's go Cowboys. Good luck to you. Yeah, I mean we've said this Dak Prescott is good, but good, but they rely like they are built to run the football. They spent all that money on the line. They have spent all that money on Zeke like they're not built to throw it 55 times a game and more often than not this year. They get into like a funky they either get down early a little bit and then they are forced to throw it that many times a game when back throws it 23 to 25 times. They're very Be tough to beat and obviously you got two guys that rush for over a hundred yards, but they need to get back to that. Like that's how they're built. That's how they win. By the way. I'm happy to Cowboys are good. We're forced to watch it. Exactly. I just don't think the Eagles have any chance. I mean what Carson Wentz has been doing has been magical Heathrow. He throw a couple ropes yesterday that I was very impressed by cutting back at got a good wind good for the Eagles good for their fans, but boy the NFC least his Dallas Cowboys this year from the San Francisco 49ers drop from 1 to 5 in the NFC very quickly after a loss yesterday against Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons in that defense giving up that touch on the end of the game. Yes to very big emotional. Games with the Ravens and then the Saints big wind down the Superdome. We talked to George Kettle George kittel continues to prove. He's the best player in football aside from Lamar Jackson gets the ball every single play pancakes A Guy In The End Zone. Wow, laughing has a hundred and some yards Jimmy G. He's playing well, but that defense not being able to stop Matt Ryan with the game on the line is an interesting thing to me. Is that a tell for that sign of things to come? I'm not a hundred percent sure of that, but you would have if you would have told me in week seven week eight weeks nine that mattress. In the Atlanta Falcons would be on their own 30 with one timeout 1 minute 43 left down five against the San Francisco 49ers. What are the chances of them driving down the field in winning it I would have said none because Matt Ryan can throw the ball more than 15 yards down the field. It's sack three times at least instead though. The Atlanta Falcons get a win over the Niners in Santa Clara and it's like hey, I understand the emotional drop that could happen because of the two big games having to travel across the country. I mean it Massive emotional roller coasters they've been on with the Ravens in the Saints but hey, it's almost playoff time. Like that's a situation where you need your your defense to step up. That's been a historically good defense. Let's assume they get back to form. Let's hope they get back to form of your Niners fan, but that has to be something that made me raise my eyebrows. Will Bingo wait what whoa, whoa, wait a minute here. No Sherman in the backend three people hurt. So let's assume they get them healthy, they'll be back. But that was a scary. That was a scary time for me as a guy who had just recently become a big-time Niners fan when I had a lot of questions. Literally, I mean it came out of nowhere. He can't fault me again. I live in the east coast always have so I don't really know much about that came out of nowhere didn't play anybody then they started stacking up wins that win last week against New Orleans was awesome. They didn't offense of the ball. They've gone up 10 touchdowns down two weeks. That's not the same Niners defense we've seen and now is not the time to not have a hot defense. It's actually the perfect time how about defense and they seem like they don't have that. Yeah. I mean, it's magnified even more by the fact that like, they still have quite a bit to play for like, I'm not like you can take I mean, there's any NFC there's you cannot exactly there's a huge difference between everyone having to go through San Francisco at home to go to the Super Bowl and then being the fifth seed and being on the road every single game against Seattle and it's a whole different ball game. I mean New Orleans still has a shot Green Bay Packers could still haven't right into it. I didn't home field advantage is a real thing. I mean, that's why they say Advantage at the end speaking of home field advantage last night a team was not available to didn't take advantage of it and I was Pittsburgh Steelers where they're calling it. I'll die hard fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers man where I watch his soul leave his body with his father last night in the sweet digs. What the hell happened last night turned guy ducking is this my fault boys. How are we as Ito has your at handle on Twitter at Tony digs? That's not your name, but I appreciate everything you're doing here on the screen. What did you at? What is your big takeaway last night from the Steelers and should the world appreciate and respect the Buffalo Bills more because they were able to stop an undefeated quarterback last night like something I've never seen before. All right. Right honest moment here big takeaway from last night. I don't think either of those teams that played on the field last night have a good enough offense to win in the playoffs. They both have great defense is great the offenses but near side of the ball has a good enough offense to win in the playoffs. I says to me 1310 game. It was 1710. I the wrong team wrong side. You can't fears have the worst offense. Cory are in the entire league they because five running backs. They just five running backs they ran. Vol 15 times as we've said on the show before if the bills defense has any weakness, it's stopping the run those numbers three past events in the in the league and we're trying 40 times a duck. Are we doing here? I mean doc was set up for failure. I don't know if it's because we're in the house and they want to calm us down, but he was set up for failure and then you got idiots on Twitter. Like I told you called you Mason boy. Oh boy. And then the Bills fans, they don't they don't know success at all. They come to 12 losing Seasons 15 losing Seasons. Don't come at me with your organization. How are you digging? Sounds like you're doing great over there. You said you were good at the beginning conversation really started firing up. It was interesting because James Conner started to roll there for a little bit and then we didn't see him again. Then he disappeared. That didn't make much sense to me. Who do you think they'll let's pivot away from that game. Although it was great in the AFC right now Patriots get a When over the Bangles but everybody's like well it wasn't because of the offense is because the defense they continue to win because of his defense and special teams whose road is it that everybody's going to have to travel on to win this AFC you think I plotted the Patriots early because it was like 10:10 for a lot of that's the first half of that game. I was like, oh, you know what? They're smart. They're like making things look good said it Justified them filming them a great still think I still don't think the Patriots as far as offense concerned is good enough. I think it goes through Kansas City and Baltimore and like you said last last year 5 what 5 inches away from the Chiefs? Probably win the Super Bowl. Yep, that defense is incredible or not a credible, but it's getting better. The offense is incredible. Hey, that was digs Tyrann Mathieu. If you're listening that was tone digs on Twitter. He's in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Currently. He'll be driving across 70 here in the next hour or so. If you want to take somebody out at Sea Italian guy that just bashed that Chiefs defense, but as much as it pains me. The Baltimore Ravens are good all three phases. I think Baltimore's easily the best team in the AFC. Tygra. All right, tones safe travels. Sorry doc couldn't get the win with us in the house last night. But we live to see brighter days my friend. It happens. I love you guys. Hey love to press it drive safe. There's a storm out there. We might not be able to get out of New York by the way, right? Hey, happy Winter Wonderland everybody in the middle of America that just experienced a snow globe dumping all over their federally out of nowhere out of nowhere. I mean, I can't see Chiefs won't happen. Out of nowhere big Indianapolis just as soon as we took flight about 30 minutes after we left half a foot of snow on the ground good for a good for whatever God's just dumping all over. I know I like snow but Early Morning Rain, so do I want to know God more in a ring guy? Let's talk about what snow does to kicking because the Denver Broncos punter kind of dropped the snap and then Colquitt struggled with step as well. And I think the issue is everybody talks about the quarterback and wide receivers having to deal with the ball in running back. I agree punters. Is have to catch a ball every single time you go on the field and if you're not on the sidelines like getting your work in and you can't wear gloves because it's wet. So sometimes gloves and wet are basically like oil and water. Is that right? Yeah. Sure. Yeah. Well in water you must sign Titian bro sometimes gloves so you can't wear gloves. You have to kind of go barehand it and you want to kind of keep her hands warmer than long as you don't get as much work on the sideline, which is what you see happen. And if you don't have any moisture on your hands, you don't lick or something like I used to be obsessive with licking my fingers. Most disgusting like it got to a point where I'd watch the game back and I'm like bro. You just licked your hands 13 times before the snap even got back there, but it's because you have to handle the ball with just the fingertips and little delicate the Denver guy drops the ball bounces off the ground picks it back up punts. It gets a penalty. He could have screwed it for a first down decided not to wanted to let the Kansas City Chiefs live a little bit longer, but for me the weather whatever the weather gets involved, that's why I'm intrigued by the Kansas City Chiefs because the ability to win in that weather last night against it. Yesterday against a team. That was pretty good. They're hot the Broncos are pretty hot. Now. We can mock them all we want but they were a hot team going into that game the ability to win with that weather and still throw the ball all over the yard. Tyree kill was still able to plant his feet and get good grip and LeSean McCoy runs into snow. I think maybe better than any running back in the history of the NFL and it's know they showed highlights him against the Colts last year. I think he loves it. He's a PA guy. He's used to the cold. But the ability to win in that blizzard to me was very eye-opening for the Kansas City Chiefs. That Titans Texans game early was an absolute slugfest things were going a little bit early big plays explosive plays at AJ Brown guy for the Tennessee Titans is a weapon Tannehill has been a hell of a player that turnover on pick on the goal line that merciless took back. The other way was real pivotal point of that game. 24:21 Titans have a blocked field goal to which would have tied it up would have been a whole different game variable is not happy with those ref chase them off the field. This is two times down two weeks where coaches have chased the wraps off the field. It's not Normal, so not only do you hate the refs. Not only do we hate the refs not only is the NFL saying yeah, we're gonna have a top-down review of these reps. As soon as the season ends coaches who are fine for being little bit demonstrative it with everybody's fed up with the refs. Not only the coin toss thing with jackets like yeah. Did he say we want to kick it? He also said defer to the second half in that same sentence won't Anderson decide to make it about himself. It's like come on. This is a non-issue like why the NFL got it right there. By the way, the NFL calls down and says it won't shut up. That's what the end. Said which I appreciate then in Chicago bears-packers game Cordarrelle Patterson has a perfect hit on a returner and there's a phantom fair catch. They say that kind of changes the entire game as well as Zito wouldn't even talk for 15 20 minutes because he was so mad at the rest is so mad so mad. I'm so mad. I'm Freeman I facetimed I need something from him. He didn't answer he calls you back like 15 minutes later shirts off. He's sweating. I'm like, what the hell are you doing? He's like these reps Pat. I can't even do it anymore. So everybody's mad with the refs. I mean, it's just the way it goes and there's literally no nothing we can do about it. The only people that can fix this are the people in charge of things which is by the way sturge and sell out Alberto River on he got no hope with him. We just got to hope that a new person gets in charge and also a pipeline needs to happen a pipeline needs to be developed. So we get some people that are worth a single damn and officiating there's a couple good refs left. But all the good rest go to TV because the Reps in the NFL don't get paid full-time jobs. They don't get taken care of. It's not really a job if anybody would want unless you come out of the Hockley, baby. Baker right. That's literally there's no pipeline to get good people in there and it's evident and it's going to be a big deal. It's going to be a massive doing a playoffs just like it was last year with the pass interference for the the Saints. It's going to be a big deal yet again because it's only gotten worse somehow and I'm with the Eric. I hate it and I like the brave will was like, hey pal you didn't want to review that like they could have reviewed that it's under two minutes give them another second. I would they have on their own 20 or whatever with one second left annexation of Puerto Rico like the Bears almost it against the Packers possibly, but I think variables Want a shot at last week Brian Flores almost decapitated a referee as he gets a phantom call down to overturn a pass interference. I mean, it's been an absolute cluster blank Custer and I almost said the it show. I mean, it's just been a nightmare for a billion dollar company. They got to figure it out and I think they're realizing I figured out early in the year. They were acting as if everything was going well, it's going according to plan. We've looked at the numbers and then as the season has gone on there like all these guys stink. They're gonna have to turn around. Oh what a day.

Today's show is anchored by two incredible interviews. First, 2x Super Bowl Champion and friend of the show, Ike Taylor calls in. Ike and Pat chat about the Steelers/Bills tilt on Sunday Night Football and whether or not this Bills team has the pieces to make a deep run into the playoffs. They also cover Ike's thoughts on Spygate 2.0 and while it might not mean much, the Patriots are the only team that ever gets caught doing things like this. Ike also gives a few thoughts on the coaching carousel and whether or not he thinks Urban Meyer would be successful if he were to get the Cowboys Head Coaching job, if the 49ers recent defensive struggles is a cause for concern or is just something that happens during a long NFL season, and Ike gives his thoughts about guys getting into snowball fights during pregame (3:13-20:42). Next, 2x Pro Bowler, 3x Super Bowl Champion, chili connoisseur and friend of the show, Mark Schlereth stops by. They discuss if it is time to finally close the book on this Patriots dynasty, how big of a fan Stink is of the Ravens brand of smash mouth, old school football, and why it works so well. Mark also gives his thoughts on the success of the Watt family, and who he thinks the best teams are in the AFC and NFC after another crazy weekend in the NFL (25:23-42:01). Pat and the boys also break down everything else that happened in week 15 of the NFL including why he thinks the Cowboys will clinch the NFC East next week against the Eagles, why he is a little bit concerned about the 49ers recent defensive performance, Pat has more issues with the Al Riveron Gang after Mike Vrabel almost came to blows with a ref at the end of the Titans/Texans tilt, explains why he thinks the Chiefs are heating up at just the right time and might be poised to make a Super Bowl run, and Digs calls in to give his take on the Bills and Steelers after watching the Sunday Night game in person at Heinz Field. It's another great overreaction Monday. Come and laugh with us. Cheers.
