Oh we gotta rise down to welcome to Part of My Take presented by Coors Light. Today is Monday, January 9th, week 18. They're not going up. Get them.

We start in Duval for the AFC South super bowl where your best ability is variability as coach turned to the astronaut Josh Dobbs to try to launch the Titans into the playoffs. Tractor Cito exposing your D like wearing Speedos punching people in the face like he's chocolito. Tractor Cito the game flipped late when Rashawn Williams Scott Jenkins said duke, where's the ball? As Josh Allen scooped his strip sack and took it for six.

The Jags are officially jagging off as Jacksonville is hosting a playoff game, most likely 4:30 on Saturday afternoon. Jags 20, Titans 16 off the Buffalo, where with a heavy heart the NFL world came together for tomorrow and the opening kickoff is returned by Wynham Dynam 19 Higham to give the Bills an early lead. The game went back and forth, switching back and forth, back and forth as Devontae Peter Parker fans were sticking to the balls for two scores, but Stefan Siggs looked really fucking cool smoking the Patriots secondary. Speaking of smoking, Bill Clinton Belichick tried his best to score, but the Buffalo Bills will be saving their blue dress uniforms for a home playoff game as the Patriots were closed but no cigar and no one circles the wagons like the Buffalo bills.

Bills 25, the Patriots 23 down to Miami where if you combine Jover throw Flacco and Skyler under throw Thompson, you get a perfect pass. The game was tight and terrible until the final drive when all I do is Quinn, Quinn, Quinn. No matter what Williams was called for a horsepower on Jalen. What'll it be boys?

A first down for the Dolphins as Jason Bernie Sanders was too far to the left earlier in the game but moved back to the center to send the Miami Dolphins to the playoffs. Dolphins 11, Jets 6 must have been safety Baseball score to the Iron City where Deshaun Watson was blending in in Pittsburgh as he's known for bringing his terrible towels as well. Deshaun Watson then threw an interception to Levi Wallace, leaving more traces of his genes behind. The Steelers fought hard for a playoff berth as Derrick My name is Watt My name is who?

My name is Chicka Chicka. Fat Shady scored a touchdown Cash and Hanks bet from last year but it was all burn up as the Steelers won but we're eliminated The Pitt for Steelers 28 left labeling rounds 14 in Chicago where the pairs were going for the first pick. Nathan Stederman and Nick Mullen went to Cometown putting up a surprising amount of points. Tim Susan Boyle came in briefly and I regret to report he still hasn't scored.

Khalil Herbert Hoover played just well enough to save Chicago and surviving a great depression and cementing the first pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. The Chicago Bears are officially on the clock. Vikings 29, bears 13 down the road to Indy and what does it mills you makes you stronger as the Texans closed out a terrible season with a bright spot. Zach Liv Moss was open late for a fourth meal in the end zone.

The game came down to fourth and 40 as Davis Grylls hit. Jordan Applewood smoked Aiken for a touchdown forcing Sabado Gigante to choke another one away. Hey Billy, hold this Ellinger Texas 32, Colts 31 got him in Seattle where the Rams were trying to crash the Seahawks chance at the dance as they put on their 22 at Lope and pranced their way in the end zone for a first half lead. Kenneth Brandon Walker was a weak man trying to score sixthly and the game went to the overtime with all the playoff implications in hand.

Baker Mayfield in overtime cooked up a turnover and Kenneth Brandon Walker ran violently as if the Rams defensive to call them a Mississippi moron. Heartbreak for the Lions as the Seahawks bounce them from the playoffs. Seahawks 19, Rams 16 Geno wrote back down the coast of California where Brock and Rob tweet tweet tweet tweet Brock and Rob tweet tweet tweety had the Niners in a playoff warm up against the Cardinals. Purdy got by without kill help from his friends, fighting George twice in the end zone and the whopping was on.

Uh hey jj look over your shoulder because Rebels creeping on you. But in all seriousness a great career for JJ. What's up, what's up? What's up?

What's up? What's up, what's up? What's up? Niners 38.

The Cardinals 13. Standing on the cone of Jameis Winston down in Nova. Such a fine sight to see. It's the end, my dear, of a stupid year.

Put us out of our misery. Come on. De narrow. You're so de narrow.

You're a po boy In New Orleans, you're a hero. The Saints don't go marching. Panthers 13, Saints 10. That is fastest two minutes.

Okay, week 18 in the books. We are going to start taping right now. We're watching second half of Lions Packers. So we'll talk about that later on in the show.

But congratulations to the Detroit Lions for eliminating the Green Bay packers from the playoffs. Let's pray this could be old takes exposed. Make the bad man go away. Week eight.

Whoa, Billy. Week 18 was. It's okay. The body re football's almost over.

I can understand. We all get sick at this time. Week 18, that was a pretty fun week 18. There was some crazy drama.

We'll do a chronological order, so we might as well start with the NC South Super Bowl. Real quick. We should address the fact that this might have been the last day that we got to see Andrew Siliano on television. Yeah, that's true.

Is going away. So it's going to be carried on what? YouTube next year. That's going to be a nightmare for dads out there.

So it's going to be Silano. He's on the direct TV broadcast. Our guest, he won the war. Is it confirmed that Hansen's in YouTube?

I mean, that'd be awesome job right now, Jake. Well, no, because YouTube TV is a new job. Jake. Jake.

It is. Jake, let me just say something real quick. Yeah. If you did that job, I would hit your fucking guts.

I know. Okay. All right. Like, I'll like death threats.

I'll write death threats to you via text message. Like, how did you. How did you. How did you go to that game?

And I thought I was gonna get touched down and always call it someone who's here. No beer call. I put it on. That's fine.

But that's. I'm rooting for you. Like having a job without way it actually would be. Yeah, that's true.

That's true. Yeah. Not deal with my death threats. Not right now.

It would actually be good publicity. You could be like the most dangerous job in the world. I get death threats every day. Yeah.

And I would make sure you got it. You work on a national network. True, true. And by the way, we should say that the voice you hear right now, Jake Marsh, he is officially the loser.

He's gonna be bowling. Max, would you like to talk? Because you're also the loser. Max.

I just think you're the worst. Max, he's. Max is too good at gambling. He ended up going 3 and 1.

I went 2 and 2. He beat me out. Jake finished last. We can talk about that later.

But just to set the table, those two, we'll be the challenge or opportunity. Jake, Jake. I don't think you're excited for this, actually. Obviously I'm not.

But yeah, I like it. You're doing to yourself like what I did to myself with Carson Wentz for entire. So, yeah. Just say how great it's gonna be for a while, and then it will eventually break your heart and your body.

What are you doing the first game? That'd be sick. Just talk to our friend Stephen Shane, because when he explained it to him, he's like, bowling's fun. Eating hot dog's fun.

This sounds awesome. I was like, okay, never mind. Yeah. So I DM Joey Chestnut.

So he's my corners and gave me some eating strategies. Okay. Lingerie. Wl who are big bowlers of I knew with some certain strategies as well.

So got some time to pull it to 250. That'd be great. Yeah. And Max is stuck there for like three days, five minutes before Max.

That'd be crazy. The thing is, like, Jake really doesn't have anything to lose in this because the expectation for Jake is going to be two or three days. Tommy John, you don't be playing Jake, then people are going to be pointing a lot of fingers. I mean, we're not competing against.

So yeah, Hank, More details to come on time, place, all that. Yeah. Okay. All right.

So let's talk some football. Let's talk some football. Let's talk about the AFC South super bowl on Saturday night. The Jacksonville Jaguars are in the playoffs.

They're hosting a playoff game. They beat the Titans 20 to 16. Doug Peterson takes a team from the worst team in the league last year with Urban Meyer at the helm to in the playoffs fixes. Trevor Lawrence's team was 2, 6.

They were 4, 8. They won their final five games. Just as an aside, I think we need to use that for our preview on Friday that the Jaguars have actually been in the playoffs last month and a half. Every game's playoffs.

They've got five playoff wins right now. Yes, exactly. But it was. It was quite the scene in Jacksonville.

I love something about Jacksonville. It's felt like a retro game. They brought out their best. They brought out, like a older version of PFT with an American flag guitar.

That's my dad, actually. Yeah, they had. I think Jacksonville leads the league in unironic leather jackets in the stands. Just the whole scene was incredible.

I'm very happy for Duval. I'm very happy for the Jaguars fans. It was awesome. Yeah.

No, listen, Jacksonville, when they're. When they're good at football, the stadium experience there looks like it's a completely different sport from the rest of, like, the NFL stadiums that we see. It's like it's its own unique Floridus down there. So they've got probably like 4 to 6,000 people that probably ride up on a motorcycle already hammered before the game.

I love Jacksonville. We've been. We've been friendly to the city of Jacksonville for a long time on this podcast. It's good to see them winning, good to see them in the playoffs.

And you never know. As long as you never know they're going to play the Chargers, who they've beaten already. They beat the out of them. Just don't.

If you're a Jaguars fan and you're telling yourself this, just completely gloss with the fact that they had everybody hurt in the game and that Justin Herbert had, like, seven fractured ribs while they're playing. Yes. Forget about that. You've beaten them already.

You're in the playoffs. Nobody thought they were going to go to playoffs this year until, like a month and a half ago. Nobody thought you were going to go to playoffs. So in a way, like, this season is definitely very much a win for you guys.

Oh, big time. And Doug Peterson is going to get my coach the year vote. Yeah. I mean, Doug Peterson, what he did.

Trevor Lawrence looks like he is like the next guy. When they were listing all the playoff quarterbacks for the afc, Mahomes, Allen Burrow, Trevor Lawrence, Justin Herbert's like, holy shit. Like, there's a lot of young, great. You know, Huntley maybe.

I don't know who. I don't know who's gonna play. The Ravens will get that. But it's.

It's a huge success for the Jaguars. I love the scene. It sucks. I kind of wish there was a night game again.

I think they'll probably get the 4:30 Saturday slot. That sounds right. It feels destined for them, but the whole scene was awesome. Yeah, I'm just.

I'm happy for Jacksonville. And I think this does cement Urban Meyer as maybe the worst coach, NFL coach of all time. How soon though, until Urban Meyer starts to take. Like, he'll dip his toes in the victory lap water.

He'll go on like some weird radio show, like a local one and be like, you know, I really did put a lot those pieces together in Jack Run a lot of my stuff. Yeah. There's a lot of similarities in the offense that I ran last with the announcement of the concepts. I introduced him.

He's gonna be like, man, when I got there, that franchise was a mess. It was a complete. He's gonna start to feel it out, which he's very good at doing. He's gonna start thinking like, okay, maybe I can kind of talk my way in this conversation and just.

It will be a tidal wave of that. Yes, big time. The other thing about Doug Peterson, great coach should get way more credit. Super bowl winning coach got the Jaguars playoffs this year.

The one thing about Doug Peterson, he did the Philly special that works so well. And every game he thinks he's got to do a Philly special because that. That turnover when the Jaguars were driving and they did the flip play. It's like, what are you doing?

Why are you doing this? Why are you doing this right now? He just, I think he just like, yeah, I gotta. I mean, that's.

Play the hits well. I gotta run the cool play. He gets upset if he goes like longer than a week without somebody tweeting the Randy Marsh big balls. Get.

Yeah, right, right. But it was. It was an awesome game. I also had the thought for the Titans.

They were the most injured team. Again, it feels like turning the page. They have to like, kind of start fresh with a lot of stuff. Yeah.

Me. Taylor's in a wheelchair. He is. He's in a wheelchair and he might never walk again.

I had the thought though, the popped in my head while I was watching the game. Could you imagine if Mike Rabel had a quarterback? Does he really want a quarterback, though? But he's such a good Coach, like, that was.

That game was so. Up until the strip sack that changed the game because it wasn't the Jaguars offense that really won that game. The defense won that game. They held him to three points in the second half.

Up until that point, the Titans were playing the perfect Mike Vrabel. Like kitchen sink. You know, long drives going forward on fourth down. Just sucking the life out of the game.

Getting into a fistfight like Derrick Henry. Just shoving people and running the ball. And I'm just sitting there like, imagine if he had. He's doing it with a guy who he picked up two weeks ago in Josh Dobbs.

And it's like, man, I wish that he had a real quarterback because he's such a good coach. And how bad is Malik Willis to not be getting so bad? He's got to be so bad that there's a good chance that they cut him next year. Yeah.

That he's not even on the roster. Because if you have a rookie that you spent a draft pick. Was he third or fourth rounder this year? Yeah, somewhere around.

Maybe second. He might have even been second. I can't remember. He might have been third.

Yeah. But. So you spent a decent draft. He was supposed to be the guy, the project.

And he's so bad that you won't let him even see the field in a playoff game. This is around. This was seriously like a playoff game for the Titans Saturday night, and he can't even see the field. He's probably gonna get cut.

Yeah. And. And I will. Derek Carr.

Maybe we should start putting Derek Carr in the team. Derek Carr. He feels like a Colt. He feels like he's.

I agree. He was born to be an Indianapolis Colt. But the Colts might draft the quarterback. I don't.

I just wish that Mike Brable had a quarterback because he is such a good coach. And the fact that the Titans were even in this game, with all the injuries and everything that's happened this season, I know that they lost, I think whatever was six or seven games in a row down the stretch. It all fell apart. But watching that game, and it was that drive they had, and I think the second quarter when they went.

They went for it on fourth down like two or three times and took like 10 minutes off the clock. And it was a field goal drive. But still, you just knew. It was like all the Titans are playing.

They're making the Jaguars play their game. And that's what they do to everyone. Just make everyone play a nasty, ugly style of football and try to beat you over the Head with it. I get the vibe from Vrabel that his perfect game plan is just like clock control.

So what he loves to do anything isn't even necessarily like going like a 99 yard run to the end. It's just straight up like let's eat seven minutes of game clock. It's time to race. Yeah.

And I'm gonna steal all the time from you. Yeah. And then I'm down inside the five yard line. If we score touchdown, that's great.

If I have to send my stupid kicker out there to the field goal, that's fine either because you know I still took seven minutes away from you. That's time that you're never gonna get back. Yeah. Fat Randy played well.

He made some kicks. Yeah. It's always the bug boo with a Titan kicker. I'm just pumped for Jacksonville.

We're dragging off the playoff. It's gonna be fun. It was an awesome scene. And yeah, I mean Chaps.

I'm excited for Chaps. He's get to watch the Jackson. He's gonna come up for the stream on Saturday at 4:30. We don't know that officially.

We're gonna. We'll have the schedule. Actually Jake, do you want to predict the schedule? You said I can predict it.

So we'll probably know it by the end of the show. Yeah, yeah. By the time. Yeah, that or by the time you're listening, you'll definitely know it.

I'll say yes, definitely. Chargers, Jaguars is probably the easiest pick. I would say like maybe Bengals, Ravens. But that's like two years ago.

Who put Bengals. Ravens. Bengals, Ravens. Feels like Sunday 1 o'.

Clock. Bengals were always penciled in for the early Saturday game. Andy Dalton was there. Now that they have Joe Burrow a little bit cooler, they get moved tonight.

I think. I think. Didn't you have that stat last week? AFC south has played in the Saturday game like 10 years in a row or something.

I think you might have had that stat. But it was something crazy. Like every single year they just playing that game. So if the packers win this game, I think they're gonna get a prime or like not the one o' clock treatment.

Vikings, they would be playing the 49ers. Okay. They're not gonna make the Niners play one o'. Clock.

We're already in trouble. Okay. So Packers, Niners. I see.

It was Saturday night last year. I remember that. So let's run that back. Okay.

Packers, niners, Sunday 1 o'. Clock. I like Ravens. Bengals.

Yep. That feels right. Sunday 4:30. I think Vikings are gonna host Brady and Cowboys has to be prime time.

That's gone. I think that's a 4:30 game. They love that Sunday afternoon. Game.

They love that Sunday afternoon. However. However, I'm seeing on sbschedules.com that the 4:30 Sunday game is CBS. Okay.

All right. So there you go. So it still could kill the rules Sunday night. That.

So that would put Dolphins, Bills, Monday night. That sounds right to me. I think. Dolphins, Bills.

I'm just envisioning my mind. It's definitely in that game. And it feels like having a full day, especially what's happened the last week and a half. I feel like that's.

They're gonna want to feature that. All right, so tweet out your prediction. Okay. Tweet it out.

Get all of them wrong. You have to tweet out the railroad. No, no, no. That's it.

You get all more worried about that than the bowling. Like, I swear to God, like, this is all fun. Next year's challenge is just going to be the reality. Engagement at the wazoo.

Yeah. Crazy audience when the Texas is covered. I consider myself winner today. Yeah, I do too.

All right, so, yeah, congrats to the Jags. This is going to be awesome. Very happy for them. All right, next up, Chiefs 31, Raiders 13.

Kind of a snoozer. Except the fact that Chiefs were so bored that they did. It was called the snow globe huddle play. It was basically ring around the rosie.

It was insane that the Chief. Like we always joke about the Chiefs getting bored. This is the most board play ever. It didn't count because of a hold.

I think it was on the outside, but it was. If you missed the game, the entire huddle was just doing a big spinner. They were spinning around and then they broke the huddle. Patrick Mahomes was in the backfield.

Snap lateral to him. Then he threw it, touchdown, came back on hold. They were just so bored. They do.

They're the only professional sports team that like, gets bored playing their professional sport because they're too good at it. Right. And they have to come up with interesting ways to keep themselves, like, focused. Andy Reid is like, hey, guys, I know it kind of sucks how you got there and kick somebody's ass again.

And you guys are probably tired, so let's make it a little bit new. And we're gonna play a child's game before we play. This is what we mean also when we just add their candy ass sometimes. Right?

And I guess it's kind of knocking it, but it's also, like, the highest compliment that I can pay their offense to the point where, like, you become candy ass because your team is so good that you need something new to stimulate you. Yeah. Like, mentally. So the Chiefs are awesome.

The Raiders think. And here I was thinking about this. It's not gonna happen because it's a poppy franchise, literally. But Josh McDaniels, he's 11 and 28 as a head coach.

Yeah. When they were cheating. He said we were cheating. That was that cheating.

Crowder was saying that. Yeah. They were taping their opponent, Josh McDaniels. I.

I would fire him. But you can't, because I just feel bad for Raiders fans. Yeah. Derek Carr is.

Is. I think he's a fine young man. I think he's a good quarterback. Not great.

And he's gonna be gone. He's out the door. And now what? You're gonna trust Joshua Daniels, the guy that got rid of Jake Cutler, to bring in Tim Tebow to build forward with a brand new quarterback?

Okay, counterpoint. Feeling bad for Raiders fans. I never feel bad for Raiders fans because they objectively, without a shadow of the doubt, have the coolest gear to wear. That's true.

So, like, and the best stadium. Your team sucks. But when you put on Raiders hat, it just always goes hard. Yeah.

It just looks cool. And you just wear that. And you can play like, the autumn wins a pirate and feel good about that. I know that's not a great consolation prize, but at least it's something.

Yeah. If you're, like, an Oakland Raiders fan. Are you pumped that they suck now? Is this, like, sweet?

Keep rooting for them. I know a lot of people that said they would not watch another game. Then you are. But, like, think about it, like, the Texans stink.

If you're wearing a Texas shirt. People like, what's wrong with that guy? Yeah. It always looks kind of like a football team from a Superman comic book.

Right. Exactly. Where you're wearing a Raiders hat and people are like, respect. Yeah, like, respect.

There's a certain level of intimidation that comes with that term. Right. Just. Just general respect.

You just, like, point them to Ice Cube. Yeah. This guy. Raiders.

Raiders, Exactly. So the Chiefs one seed, Patrick Mahomes. I know that sometimes we get comments like, you guys. All you guys do is suck off Patrick Holmes.

National media does the same. I don't really know what else you can, like, handle how great he is. He broke the record for most total yards in NFL season, passing and rushing. So 5250 or.

Sorry, yeah, no, 5614. So I know it's an extra game, but he did break that record. He also is now 16. Zero on the road against AFC West.

That's insane. He's 27. Three overall against AFC west as a starter. He's 64 and 1680 games regular season, 192 touchdowns, and he's gonna.

He should win the MVP. He had 41 touchdowns this year. I know that. Josh Allen and Joe Burrow played one less game, but they Both finished with 35.

He's just so fucking good. And every year, like we said a few weeks ago, we do the preseason. We're like, who's gonna win the ncs? Who's gonna do it?

It's the Chiefs. And it's Patrick Mahomes. He's the best player in the NFL. I.

I don't know what else to say. He's that good. I mean, 62, 64, and 16 is a starter. That's fucking stupid.

He's 16. Zero in his division on the road. Yeah. That's crazy.

People are like, pardon my take rig because we're like, the best football player in football is good at playing football. And that's like. Yeah, we nitpick him, too. Yeah, we do.

We point out the dumb stuff that he does, but he's just so good. He's. He's kind of annoying because the only legitimate criticism that you can have of Patrick Mahomes right now is that the media is annoying with how much they love him. So your complaint becomes directed at somebody else.

That has nothing to do with actually what Mahomes does. It's how other people talk about him. So, yeah, sometimes when the world's lamest people really like something, it's. Even if that thing is good, then it will make you start to hate that.

Right? And I don't hate him at all. I love watching play football. It's just also in sports, when there's someone who's truly great and just above everyone else, we try to find.

It's lame to just say, oh, yeah, Patrick Holmes is the best teacher in the NC West. So you try to find a cool zag or like, oh, this is the answer to the question. No, the answer to the question is Patrick Mahomes. Yeah.

And we'll see how the Chiefs do in the playoffs. I do think that, like, this game, not letting the Raiders hang around at all because, you know, they were playing with some teams there where it was a little too close. I don't know. Would you be.

No one would be shocked if they Go to the super bowl again? No, of course not. Well, Holmes doesn't have to go on the road this playoff again at the very. If he makes it the SEC championship game, then that's going to be a neutral site.

A neutral site, yeah. Which we don't know where that would be yet, but I guess there's people that speculate it could be acquisition Heinzfield in Pittsburgh or Indianapolis shut it down or. No. Jim Mercer said no in Detroit has.

They're redoing something so that one's out. What about can they at the hall of Fame? That'd be cool. Make it happen.

Why don't they do it at MetLife? We can go. Yeah, they should do that. Vegas.

Or Vegas. Yeah, and we could go. Or Jacksonville and we could go. Yeah.

Yeah. But yeah, the Chiefs are really, really fun. Good. Patrick Holmes is best player in football.

They're the one seed and there's not much else to say about that. I was just asking. It was 13 that kind of halfway through the season they weren't kicking people's asses like we thought that they should be. And that that really wasn't knocked against them at that time.

I was like, well, they're not. They're not playing up their abilities right now, but it looks like they are. And I mean, it's not like they don't miss Tyreek Hill because I think he added a crazy element to that offense that is not there anymore. But they're certainly not missing that much.

No. Right. And Patrick Mahomes, you know, the Chiefs are smart in the way they've built their roster and the fact that they're like, hey, Tyreek Hill is incredible, but Patrick Mahomes is the guy I know that he can make other people, you know, 80% Tyreek Hill, right. I know another fast guy that we can sign, right?

And also we should shout out Chris Jones, who's just a monster in this game. And it does feel like the Steve Spagnola get pressure with four will be the. Will be the recipe for the Chiefs going into postseason because their back half of the defense isn't great and they'll just hopefully get pressure with four. With Chris Jones just.

He's a monster, just an absolute monster. And he like watching some of those sacks. Like if he wasn't getting the sack, he was basically forcing the sack by getting. By collapsing the pocket or getting, you know, double teamed.

He's just everywhere we still get pressure. When they had two guys on, right, he was like very easily going through the Raiders off at one and he went to the oxygen mask, which I always love. It's always good luck. Stel Blue coffees.

You got the finger revenge. Finger revenge. Finger revenge. By the way, second time.

Ugly, ugly game. Yeah. Just terrible game. Joe Flack over Skyler Thompson for the playoffs, but the Dolphins survive.

Maybe a questionable horse collar penalty on Quinn Williams going down for the Dolphins to get into field goal range at the end. You missed that. I'll be honest, I did not see the game. I was talking about the basketball game, but name plate, not really.

Like in the horse collar, they grabbed, like, jersey, got a handful of, like, where the name was. Yeah. And pulled him down. So they went from.

The collapse was avoided. They lost five straight. They win this one. I have no idea if TUA is going to play.

That's the big storyline here because they. They had Buffalo on the ropes on that Saturday night game with Tua healthy. If he's not healthy, I don't. And as Hank astutely pointed out in the Bills Patriots game, the Bills secondary is missing some people.

You did say that. You're like, Matt Jones is torching them. I was like, they're missing their safety, dude. Fair enough.

You admit that you said it? No. You alluded to it. No.

But you said, Matt Jones is blown out. I'm gonna see there's a lineup, but I could see them waiting a little bit to see the two of status. Because that's what this game hinges on, right? Yeah, it does.

But also, I think back in like September, late September, when the Dolphins were the hottest team in football, we did a mental exercise where we pictured the Miami Dolphins going on the road in January. Yes. Two Buffaloes in a snow game with two eyes at quarterback wearing the teal jerseys. And we're like, they're gonna lose by.

I know that you want the Dolphins in the playoffs. If Tua doesn't play, they're the biggest bummer of a playoff team. I would much rather see the Steelers. Yeah.

So right now the Barcelona sportsbook has a 10.51. That's factoring him. Him being in or out. That's tool less.

Yeah, that's tool less. Feels like it'd be about seven and a half. Maybe that was the line when they played, it was seven. When they played a month ago, it was right around there.

Yeah. So yeah, we'll see. I mean, maybe the playoffs. Yay.

But yeah, they were suic. They were sulk contenders six weeks ago. I think everyone agreed. And then I have a question.

Should the Dolphins Fire Mike McDaniel? I saw some rumors of that. Well, I have a reason for it other than the actual. I think it's a stupid argument, but I have an even dumber reason for why they should fire him.

The Dolphins have made the playoffs three times in the last 20 years. And they've had their backup quarterback. No. Matt More, 2016.

No. No. So three times in the last 20 years. All of them with first year head coaches.

Tony Sorano, first year, 2008. Adam Gates, first year, 2016. Mike McDaniel, first year, 2022. Why not just fire him?

Get my new one. Get his new blood. I like the way get back to the play. Wait, is it every.

Every time I switched coaches? No, but it's only been. Only been new. No.
