Yeah, he is, I mean, getting funky.

00:00:17.480 --> 00:00:20.589
Underway picked up Daniil Hunter to stack defense.

00:00:20.589 --> 00:00:22.245
He was fifth in the league in sacks.

00:00:22.245 --> 00:00:27.827
Last year he had 16.5 sacks and Diego dropping some info.

00:00:28.341 --> 00:00:30.849

Before we get into that, we got fantasy football, our pick-em-pro fantasy league.

00:02:05.790 --> 00:02:07.992
We've got our draft in two weeks.

00:02:07.992 --> 00:02:12.836
So Saturday, august 24th, 7 pm Eastern, we're drafting.

00:02:12.836 --> 00:02:14.037
That's going to be fun.

00:02:14.037 --> 00:02:16.902
It's going to be a lot of trash talk.

00:02:16.902 --> 00:02:21.611
Desmond Clark from the Chicago Bears, former Tideville Chicago Bears, will be joining us.

00:02:25.659 --> 00:02:26.861
He's finally going to be in a league with us man.

00:02:26.882 --> 00:02:27.263
He's been running.

00:02:27.263 --> 00:02:31.352
He's no longer going to be able to hide and uh, yeah, gonna get a beat down.

00:02:31.352 --> 00:02:33.222
Man, where do you think this is going to finish?

00:02:33.643 --> 00:02:35.006
in the, in the I might.

00:02:35.006 --> 00:02:38.061
I think he'll finish mid middle of the pack I'm giving him.

00:02:38.061 --> 00:02:42.400
I'm giving him, being nice, he'll finish the back not, not at the top, but not at the bottom.

00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:48.766
So okay, so you say fifth or six yeah, fifth or six, yeah, that's solid, solid place for him I'm gonna say he's gonna finish.

00:02:48.887 --> 00:02:51.901
Ninth, I think I think des finishes ninth.

00:02:51.901 --> 00:02:53.062
I think that's it.

00:02:53.062 --> 00:02:55.668
We should have the over under on that.

00:02:55.668 --> 00:02:58.394
Does des finish over under nine?

00:02:58.394 --> 00:03:03.347
Oh, no, not nine and a half over under on des.

00:03:03.347 --> 00:03:04.288
So on Dez.

00:03:04.288 --> 00:03:08.735
So we're going to see where will Dez finish in our fantasy football league.

00:03:08.735 --> 00:03:17.510
I don't know, man, because a lot of guys that played you know they're not really good at this fantasy football thing you know what I mean.

00:03:17.510 --> 00:03:19.134
Yeah, I don't know.

00:03:19.134 --> 00:03:21.401
I don't know if that's going to turn out too well for him.

00:03:21.421 --> 00:03:22.903
We're going to find out, we're going to see.

00:03:22.903 --> 00:03:26.026
We're going to turn out too well for him, we're going to find out, we're going to see.

00:03:26.026 --> 00:03:28.308
We're going to see if he can do anything on fantasy, because you know, we're gurus.

00:03:28.308 --> 00:03:29.110
Well, I'm a guru, I've won titles.

00:03:29.129 --> 00:03:29.450
I'm a guru too.

00:03:29.450 --> 00:03:30.091
You know what I'm saying.

00:03:30.091 --> 00:03:31.673
I basically won a few titles.

00:03:32.252 --> 00:03:35.075
You finished second one year and you're holding on to that.

00:03:35.075 --> 00:03:39.704
I basically finished.

00:03:39.704 --> 00:03:45.413
First, you're shaky, we're going to see, man, we can't wait, man, we can't wait to go at it with you guys on that, all right.

00:03:45.413 --> 00:03:46.414
Well, let's get into it.

00:03:46.414 --> 00:03:49.905
Afc hey, let's make these predictions, man.

00:03:49.905 --> 00:03:52.247
Let's go north, south, east and west.

00:03:52.247 --> 00:03:54.391
Let's start with the AFC North.

00:03:54.391 --> 00:03:57.281
Who you got All right.

00:03:57.301 --> 00:03:59.943
So NFC North Number one in that division.

00:03:59.943 --> 00:04:02.366
I have the Baltimore Ravens.

00:04:02.366 --> 00:04:11.150
Got reigning MVP Lamar with a one seed in the AFC last year and added Derrick Henry, so I don't see how they don't finish first in the division this year.

00:04:11.150 --> 00:04:15.450
Number two in that division I have the Cincinnati Bengals.

00:04:15.450 --> 00:04:22.947
I think a healthy Joe Burrow, jamar Chase they went to the Super Bowl together.

00:04:22.947 --> 00:04:27.024
So I think with those two healthy they can definitely do big things.

00:04:27.024 --> 00:04:28.048
So add them.

00:04:28.149 --> 00:04:29.432
Second in the afc north.

00:04:29.432 --> 00:04:41.855
Okay, number three I have the cleveland browns and I guess it's kind of a sleeper because some people think the stealer is going to be better than them, but I think deshaun watson's going to be solid next year um solid qb.

00:04:42.358 --> 00:04:47.322
Um, they got healthy nick chubb, who was one of the best running backs in the league when he was healthy.

00:04:47.322 --> 00:04:49.867
Um, they got amari cooper.

00:04:49.867 --> 00:04:51.971
Receiver receiving core is not bad.

00:04:51.971 --> 00:04:56.889
We got mount garrett and defense, so I think they're gonna be a good team this year.

00:04:56.889 --> 00:05:02.505
Okay, last I have the pittsburgh steelers and, um, that's not a shot.

00:05:02.505 --> 00:05:14.682
I think the Steelers are still going to be around 500, but uh, all the other teams are playoff caliber as well, so I think last Nancy North isn't it's just really because the vision is loaded.

00:05:14.824 --> 00:05:28.187
Yeah, the QB situation and you don't know who's going to start um the receiving core is just is very relied relying on George Pickens, since they traded Deontay Johnson and yeah, I just think they kind of downgraded from last year.

00:05:28.687 --> 00:05:30.709
Okay, all right, all right, okay.

00:05:30.709 --> 00:05:34.033
So I've got a few differences with you on this.

00:05:34.033 --> 00:05:34.992
We're going to have to do a recap.

00:05:34.992 --> 00:05:39.836
We don't do recaps enough to showcase just how much I'm right on these.

00:05:42.540 --> 00:05:43.225
How about the NBA Finals recap?

00:05:43.225 --> 00:05:44.213
We're definitely going to have to do a recap.

00:05:44.213 --> 00:05:44.980
How about the Super Bowl recaps?

00:05:44.980 --> 00:05:47.086
What about March Madness?

00:05:47.387 --> 00:05:50.367
On this, so we're definitely going to have to do that?

00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:51.865
What about playoff recaps?

00:05:53.084 --> 00:05:54.932
We can recap anything you want to recap.

00:05:55.535 --> 00:05:55.776
All right.

00:05:55.776 --> 00:05:57.567
You're going to be a bit embarrassed.

00:05:57.567 --> 00:06:00.410
No, no, not necessarily.

00:06:00.410 --> 00:06:01.461
On a lot of those, you've been lucky.

00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:02.461
You've been lucky on a lot of those.

00:06:02.461 --> 00:06:03.122
You've been lucky.

00:06:03.122 --> 00:06:05.184
You've been lucky on a lot of these.

00:06:05.184 --> 00:06:07.305
Man, all right, man, your luck is running out.

00:06:07.305 --> 00:06:13.651
You're getting older, you're getting crusty, and with that comes no luck.

00:06:13.913 --> 00:06:15.074
So that luck's about to run out.

00:06:15.093 --> 00:06:16.435
It's going to be like huge.

00:06:16.615 --> 00:06:18.456
I mean, yeah, getting funky.

00:06:20.040 --> 00:06:20.682
All right, so let's go here.

00:06:20.682 --> 00:06:23.250
So AFC North man, I've got my bangles.

00:06:23.250 --> 00:06:51.988
No-transcript are solid, but Bengals are going to be on a mission.

00:06:51.988 --> 00:06:55.516
They're going to get off to a fast start for the first time ever.

00:06:56.201 --> 00:06:58.968
And they're going to go ahead and go first time ever.

00:07:00.300 --> 00:07:05.644
They're going to get off to a fast start and they're going to win the division and they're going to do their thing.

00:07:05.644 --> 00:07:07.728
So I have the Bengals winning this.

00:07:07.728 --> 00:07:09.221
Number two.

00:07:09.221 --> 00:07:11.990
I've got the Baltimore Ravens.

00:07:11.990 --> 00:07:14.706
They again going to have a great year.

00:07:14.706 --> 00:07:16.767
I think they definitely get into the playoffs.

00:07:16.767 --> 00:07:18.043
It's going to be tight.

00:07:18.043 --> 00:07:20.129
But I've got the Ravens finishing second.

00:07:20.129 --> 00:07:26.002
I think they're not going to be as caught up in the regular season.

00:07:26.002 --> 00:07:27.084
For them it's all about the playoffs.

00:07:27.084 --> 00:07:31.954
With that loss to the Chiefs last year, they're still going to be reeling from that this year.

00:07:31.954 --> 00:07:42.242
I think they have a great year.

00:07:42.242 --> 00:07:43.105
I think say Flowers is going to be a beast.

00:07:43.105 --> 00:07:43.545
They have a huge year.

00:07:43.545 --> 00:07:44.228
But I've got the Ravens at two, uh.

00:07:44.249 --> 00:07:44.971
Third, I'm making an adjustment.

00:07:44.971 --> 00:07:46.355
I'm gonna go ahead and put the steelers in at number three.

00:07:46.355 --> 00:07:47.439
Uh, I just can't see the steelers finishing last.

00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:59.391
Although I like the browns, I like a lot of what they've got, but with tomlin and um, with the quarterbacks that they have brought in, it should be a big upgrade, uh, on what they've had.

00:07:59.391 --> 00:08:04.209
And I'm gonna go ahead and put the Steelers at three and then I'll put the Cleveland Browns at four.

00:08:04.209 --> 00:08:07.129
So that's going to be my adjustment for that.

00:08:07.129 --> 00:08:09.814
So I've got Bengals one, Ravens two.

00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:14.050
Tomlin's going to finish with a non-500 record at some point in his life.

00:08:14.091 --> 00:08:14.913
No, he will never.

00:08:14.913 --> 00:08:17.028
He will never finish under 500.

00:08:17.680 --> 00:08:18.685
It's going to happen.

00:08:19.160 --> 00:08:20.305
No, never, never.

00:08:20.305 --> 00:08:24.382
So finish under 500.

00:08:24.382 --> 00:08:25.524
It's gonna gonna happen.

00:08:25.524 --> 00:08:26.125
No, no, never, never.

00:08:26.125 --> 00:08:26.627
So that's it.

00:08:26.627 --> 00:08:27.870
So again, bangles, ravens, steelers and browns.

00:08:27.870 --> 00:08:28.552
That's it.

00:08:28.552 --> 00:08:30.336
So afc, south um, who you got, let's go.

00:08:30.355 --> 00:08:33.902
Number four at the tennessee titans finishing number four.

00:08:33.902 --> 00:08:39.988
Uh, will levis, second year qb, um, this will be okay for him.

00:08:39.988 --> 00:08:45.192
They got Calvin Ridley traded for him or signed him.

00:08:45.192 --> 00:08:47.735
I don't know how reliable he is anymore.

00:08:47.735 --> 00:08:54.899
Dehop's going to miss about four to six games because of whatever he has going on Age.

00:08:54.899 --> 00:08:56.586
Yeah, they lost Derrick Henry.

00:08:56.586 --> 00:09:04.148
So yeah, it's just, I don't see them and the division's getting better, so I don't see them and the division's getting better, so I don't see them finishing above fourth place in that division.

00:09:04.328 --> 00:09:05.211
Titans would be terrible.

00:09:05.392 --> 00:09:08.610
Yeah, number three I have the Indianapolis Colts.

00:09:08.610 --> 00:09:10.606
I think they're going to have a better year.

00:09:10.606 --> 00:09:15.311
Anthony Richardson coming back for a second year.

00:09:15.311 --> 00:09:17.666
He's very good.

00:09:17.666 --> 00:09:20.087
Throw the ball far, you know can run it.

00:09:20.087 --> 00:09:21.549
They got Jonathan Taylor back too.

00:09:21.549 --> 00:09:21.875
He's very good.

00:09:21.875 --> 00:09:21.986
Uh, throw the ball far, you know can run it.

00:09:21.986 --> 00:09:22.678
Um, they got jonathan taylor back too.

00:09:22.678 --> 00:09:24.844
Um, so I got those two players.

00:09:24.844 --> 00:09:27.450
Being back is gonna um, help them a lot.

00:09:27.450 --> 00:09:29.883
They have a good o-line, you know all that stuff.

00:09:29.883 --> 00:09:31.767
So I think they're gonna be third um.

00:09:31.767 --> 00:09:34.793
Number two I have the jacksville jaguars.

00:09:34.793 --> 00:09:41.333
Trevor lawrence with his new deal, um, you know, christian Christian Kirk and all those guys.

00:09:41.333 --> 00:09:46.028
They're going to be solid and finish second place Number one, I have the Texans.

00:09:47.981 --> 00:09:48.062
CJ.

00:09:48.081 --> 00:09:49.668
Stroud in the building.

00:09:49.668 --> 00:09:50.823
It's not because of him.

00:09:50.985 --> 00:09:51.366
MVP.

00:09:52.662 --> 00:10:08.831
They added Stiggs to the explosive offense, got Tank Dale coming back healthy with Nico Collins All the weapons, added mixon and added um underrated pickup daniel hunter to stack defense.

00:10:08.831 --> 00:10:10.461
He was fifth in the league in sacks.

00:10:10.461 --> 00:10:16.153
Last year he had 16.5 sacks and you know, dropping some info.

00:10:16.433 --> 00:10:19.063
Oh yeah, yeah, you did, did some research this time.

00:10:19.063 --> 00:10:25.466
Okay, whatever about time, you normally just say stuff all right, not bad.

00:10:25.466 --> 00:10:27.369
Well, I've got the exact same thing.

00:10:27.970 --> 00:10:30.234
So no, needs all right cool.

00:10:30.274 --> 00:10:31.402
Go any deeper on that.

00:10:31.402 --> 00:10:33.765
The south is pretty easy to predict.

00:10:33.765 --> 00:10:42.472
So yeah uh, titans four, colts three, jaguars two and texans winning the division, going to the playoffs.

00:10:42.472 --> 00:10:43.884
Yeah, I think that was pretty easy.

00:10:44.466 --> 00:10:44.948
All right cool.

00:10:45.539 --> 00:10:47.408
Well, let's go to the AFC East.

00:10:47.408 --> 00:10:50.508
This may be a little more challenging.

00:10:51.070 --> 00:10:51.551
Let's go.

00:10:51.551 --> 00:10:53.265
I think we know who's going to finish last.

00:10:53.840 --> 00:10:54.903
We know who's going to finish last.

00:10:54.903 --> 00:10:55.788
Who's going to finish last?

00:10:55.899 --> 00:10:59.764
The New England Patriots are going to finish last in the AFC East again.

00:10:59.764 --> 00:11:05.051
Drake May is not looking so good so far.

00:11:05.051 --> 00:11:13.466
They got Joe Milton QB from Tennessee who looked really good in the preseason game.

00:11:13.466 --> 00:11:20.011
So I don't know what their QB situation is going to be like, but I just know they're going to finish.

00:11:20.011 --> 00:11:25.836
Last, Last receiving core, last run game, just last everything.

00:11:25.836 --> 00:11:28.870
Number three I have the New York Jets.

00:11:32.980 --> 00:11:35.024
I don't really trust them to be that great because I don't know about Aaron Rodgers.

00:11:35.024 --> 00:11:38.451
Him being there depends so much on them and how they're going to be.

00:11:38.451 --> 00:11:47.259
I just know their defense is going to be good, so um, you have them finishing third rogers and um have the bills, the buffalo bills.

00:11:47.259 --> 00:11:51.707
Finishing second, um josh allen, and you know that.

00:11:51.707 --> 00:11:58.506
His receiving court, keon coleman and, uh, khalil shakir, yeah shakir, that's my guy.

00:11:58.547 --> 00:12:07.462
Y'all sleeping on shakir josh allen's not going to be enough for them to be first place in the division with the limited receivers they have, and all that but number one.

00:12:07.462 --> 00:12:09.667
I do have the miami dolphins.

00:12:09.667 --> 00:12:13.961
Uh, they have great regular seasons, at least to start off first half.

00:12:13.961 --> 00:12:18.528
Um, that tua uh reek waddle most.

00:12:18.528 --> 00:12:25.977
They all lose their minds in the regular season, so I got them number one in that division well, don't forget about the dolphins.

00:12:26.038 --> 00:12:32.570
Coach, yeah, all right, all right, daniel, okay, yes, you got man.

00:12:32.570 --> 00:12:34.572
Yeah, all right, uh.

00:12:34.572 --> 00:12:36.501
So I'm very similar to you on this one.

00:12:36.501 --> 00:12:38.388
I've got patriots at four.

00:12:38.388 --> 00:12:40.995
Like you, I've got the jets at three.

00:12:40.995 --> 00:12:43.142
Also, you know shaky on rogers.

00:12:43.142 --> 00:12:44.806
Is he going to make it through the season?

00:12:44.806 --> 00:12:47.231
Uh, made some improvements on the old line.

00:12:47.231 --> 00:12:47.942
Is that enough?

00:12:47.942 --> 00:12:48.903
I don't think so.

00:12:48.903 --> 00:12:52.431
I think the jets are very overrated going into this year.

00:12:52.431 --> 00:12:55.121
But then we differ on one and two.

00:12:55.121 --> 00:12:59.586
I've got the miami dolphins at the second position.

00:12:59.586 --> 00:13:02.551
Okay, got them at the second position.

00:13:02.551 --> 00:13:05.094
I think they're still hurt on defense.

00:13:05.094 --> 00:13:10.230
They had a lot of injuries at the end of the year and they were very close to the end of the year.

00:13:10.250 --> 00:13:10.894
Those guys are going to be back?

00:13:10.894 --> 00:13:11.399
I don't think so.

00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:15.905
I don't think a lot of them have had, and I mean you were talking about Achilles and ACLs and that type of stuff.

00:13:15.905 --> 00:13:16.668
Nah, I don't know, I don't know.

00:13:16.668 --> 00:13:18.873
Well, there was one guy who tore his Achilles, devastating injuries.

00:13:19.120 --> 00:13:22.460
There was one guy that tore his Achilles, but that was midway through the season.

00:13:22.460 --> 00:13:37.652
All the other guys had stuff, other stuff, but the guy who tore his Achilles is back Back okay, all right Back, like June Because there was a guy who tore his Achilles in like week 10, and now he's back in like June.

00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:38.581
Yeah, but is he effective?

00:13:38.581 --> 00:13:40.244
I, he was back in June, yeah, but is he effective?

00:13:40.244 --> 00:13:43.168
I mean, tear your Achilles and be back, but are you effective?

00:13:43.168 --> 00:13:50.148
So I mean, just because you can walk, that doesn't mean you can play football at a high level.

00:13:50.148 --> 00:13:50.751
So I'm not buying that.

00:13:50.751 --> 00:13:51.879
I'm not buying that.

00:13:51.879 --> 00:13:53.787
So I think the Dolphins finish.

00:13:53.787 --> 00:13:57.528
Second Number one I've got the Buffalo Bills.

00:13:57.528 --> 00:13:59.221
I think people are sleeping on them.

00:13:59.221 --> 00:14:04.326
They yet again will win the division, like they always do.

00:14:04.326 --> 00:14:06.927
Barely won last year, they still won it.

00:14:06.927 --> 00:14:16.836
No matter what, they find a way to win, that man, josh Allen, will lead them to the crown and I would love, love what they've got here.

00:14:16.836 --> 00:14:25.052
I think they're going to have a much better attitude, much more camaraderie, and they're going to be on a mission to show that they were more than just digs.

00:14:25.052 --> 00:14:29.129
So you're going to see some explosiveness out of the Buffalo Bills this year.

00:14:30.240 --> 00:14:36.312
I don't know about explosiveness, but maybe a lot of running and you know They'll be more balanced.

00:14:36.312 --> 00:14:39.030
He said explosive, but as explosive.

00:14:39.030 --> 00:14:49.801
You can be balanced and explosive, okay the dolphins, the dolphins are balanced and explosive no, no, the bills are gonna be, bills will be the same way.

00:14:49.801 --> 00:14:53.849
You're an explosive one yard one yard runs.

00:14:53.849 --> 00:14:55.312
That was a hard fought yard.

00:14:55.412 --> 00:14:56.961
They they will win the division.

00:14:56.961 --> 00:14:57.881
You can book it, you can book it.

00:14:57.881 --> 00:14:58.503
They will win the division.

00:14:58.503 --> 00:14:59.504
You can book it, you can book it.

00:14:59.504 --> 00:15:00.746
They will win the division All right.

00:15:00.746 --> 00:15:02.750
Let's go to the final division.

00:15:02.750 --> 00:15:08.585
Before we then make our full playoff predictions here for the AFC, let's go to the West.

00:15:08.585 --> 00:15:11.407
All right, who do you have in the West?

00:15:12.340 --> 00:15:15.549
So number four, I have the Denver Broncos.

00:15:15.549 --> 00:15:19.561
Their QB situation isn't looking the best.

00:15:19.561 --> 00:15:21.221
Their QB situation isn't looking the best they have.

00:15:21.221 --> 00:15:26.823
You know, their three top three QBs are Jared Stidham, zach Wilson and the rookie Bo Nix.

00:15:26.823 --> 00:15:29.404
So yeah, not looking so good.

00:15:29.424 --> 00:15:30.125
Their receivers.

00:15:30.145 --> 00:15:34.207
They lost Jerry Judy, who wasn't that great anyway, but he was their top receiver.

00:15:34.207 --> 00:15:37.408
So, yeah, they lost Russell Wilson.

00:15:37.408 --> 00:15:41.370
Okay, yeah, they're going to be last Number three.

00:15:41.370 --> 00:15:45.312
I have the LA Chargers with Harbaugh.

00:15:45.312 --> 00:15:51.254
I think they're going to be solid with Harbaugh there, but just in the division I think they're not going to be as good.

00:15:51.254 --> 00:15:58.697
Herbert's dealing with some injuries, lost their top three receivers and Austin Eckler too.

00:16:01.740 --> 00:16:06.201
Yeah, I don't think they's going to be the same Number two.

00:16:06.201 --> 00:16:07.001
I have the Las Vegas Raiders.

00:16:07.001 --> 00:16:08.783
They added Gardner Minshew quarterback.

00:16:08.783 --> 00:16:13.349
He's better than Jimmy G and Aiden O'Connell who they had before.

00:16:13.349 --> 00:16:19.355
They lost Josh Jacobs, but they have a happy Devontae this year.

00:16:19.355 --> 00:16:27.929
They have a good coach and they got the number one tight end from the draft, brock Bowers from Georgia, who was really good.

00:16:28.511 --> 00:16:29.943
Okay, yeah that'll help.

00:16:31.380 --> 00:16:33.107
That'll help Gardner Minshew in the passing game.

00:16:33.107 --> 00:16:35.601
So I think they're going to be number two and number one.

00:16:35.601 --> 00:16:39.989
I have the Kansas City Chiefs and reigning champs on another Super Bowl.

00:16:40.940 --> 00:16:46.471
Well, I don't know about the Super Bowl, but I think the Chiefs definitely win the easy AFC West.

00:16:46.900 --> 00:16:48.889
And the Super Bowl and the easy Super Bowl.

00:16:49.601 --> 00:16:52.004
I don't know about that, Don't know about that.

00:16:52.004 --> 00:16:55.971
But okay, so I'm slightly different than you.

00:16:55.971 --> 00:16:58.246
I've got the Raiders finishing last.

00:16:58.609 --> 00:16:58.909
Whoa.

00:16:59.301 --> 00:17:00.346
In the division.

00:17:00.346 --> 00:17:05.307
I think Devontae Adams will be happy through about the first quarter of game one.

00:17:05.327 --> 00:17:06.270
They have a good coach.

00:17:06.681 --> 00:17:12.432
They have a good coach, but I don't think that's going to overcome their lack of firepower.

00:17:13.500 --> 00:17:14.766
They have some firepower.

00:17:15.261 --> 00:17:16.489
I don't think they have enough.

00:17:17.253 --> 00:17:20.288
And I think Devontae, sometimes coaching in fundamentals is better than firepower.

00:17:22.424 --> 00:17:24.250
Devontae has been a lot more outspoken.

00:17:24.250 --> 00:17:27.288
He's doing a lot of shows, doing a lot of interviews.

00:17:27.288 --> 00:17:30.678
It's funny when you were in Green Bay you didn't hear anything from Devontae.

00:17:30.678 --> 00:17:44.226
Now you hear and see a lot of Devontae and I think he's putting a lot of pressure on himself and the team to be in the playoff race, super Bowl race and I just don't think they're equipped for that.

00:17:44.226 --> 00:17:51.728
I wouldn't be surprised to see him get traded and end up on another team.

00:17:51.728 --> 00:17:53.010
That's a contender.

00:17:54.164 --> 00:17:57.039
I don't think Devontae finishes the season in Las Vegas.

00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:00.029
I think they rebuild myself.

00:18:00.029 --> 00:18:03.710
So I think they fall apart mid-season.

00:18:03.710 --> 00:18:06.648
Go ahead and trade assets and look to rebuild.

00:18:06.648 --> 00:18:08.305
So I've got them at four.

00:18:08.305 --> 00:18:10.502
I've got the broncos at three.

00:18:10.502 --> 00:18:15.031
Uh, they'll be slightly better than they were last year, but not much.

00:18:15.031 --> 00:18:17.163
But puts them at about number three.

00:18:17.163 --> 00:18:21.436
I think the chargers will be the team that ascends the most.

00:18:21.436 --> 00:18:25.766
Uh, they will push uh to get into the wild card hall.

00:18:25.766 --> 00:18:31.654
Ball willugh will be a major difference, as he is, whenever he goes to a new team, a lot of scandals.

00:18:31.654 --> 00:18:33.246
He has a major impact.

00:18:33.246 --> 00:18:34.088
What is the NFL?

00:18:34.088 --> 00:18:36.528
So we don't worry about scandals.

00:18:36.528 --> 00:18:39.730
He can Bill Belichick it and cheat it's okay.

00:18:39.730 --> 00:18:41.567
Bill Belichick won a few Super Bowls.

00:18:42.040 --> 00:18:44.839
Hey and Harbaugh may be on his way to Super Bowl.

00:18:44.839 --> 00:18:47.142
He almost got one in San Francisco.

00:18:47.142 --> 00:18:52.746
He's on a mission to bring one to LA and I think he gets his team close.

00:18:52.746 --> 00:18:55.167
We'll tell you if they make the playoffs here.

00:18:55.167 --> 00:18:59.632
But I've got the Chargers at number two pushing the Chiefs here.

00:18:59.632 --> 00:19:06.057
But the Chiefs are the class of the sorry AFC West and the Chiefs will definitely get this.

00:19:08.160 --> 00:19:12.451
They'll coast through the regular season, but they'll do just enough to win the division, all right.

00:19:12.451 --> 00:19:29.590
So with that said, my man, it looks like you've got the Ravens in the playoffs out of the North, you've got the Houston Texans out of the South to make the playoffs, you've got the Miami Dolphins out of the East to make the playoffs and you have the Kansas City Chiefs out of the West to win the playoffs.

00:19:29.590 --> 00:19:30.945
Those are your top four seeds.

00:19:30.945 --> 00:19:32.986
Who are your three wild?

00:19:33.026 --> 00:19:33.326
cards.

00:19:33.326 --> 00:19:34.940
I'm a three wild card.

00:19:34.940 --> 00:19:38.011
First wild card team I have the Cincinnati Bengals.

00:19:38.011 --> 00:19:39.016
Okay, you know what I'm saying.

00:19:39.016 --> 00:19:42.097
I said earlier all the reasons why I thought they were going to finish second.

00:19:42.239 --> 00:19:42.420
Oh yeah.

00:19:42.601 --> 00:19:44.428
And I think with Burrow and Chase.

00:19:44.428 --> 00:19:49.634
I think with Burrow and Chase they're going to definitely be good enough to be the best wildcard team and maybe go far out of the wildcard.

00:19:49.634 --> 00:19:50.435
So they're number one.

00:19:50.435 --> 00:20:03.607
Number two I have the Bills Buffalo Bills Josh Allen's going to do just enough to get them in the playoffs and see what happens beyond there, but I think they'll definitely be the two wildcard seeds.

00:20:03.607 --> 00:20:04.911
Second wildcard team Okay.

00:20:05.579 --> 00:20:18.008
And my last wildcard is the Clevelandveland browns um I think they're going to be a solid team and they're going to sneak into the playoffs okay, so is that the exact same playoff roster from last year for the afc?

00:20:18.008 --> 00:20:19.431
You're just running that back.

00:20:19.672 --> 00:20:27.727
No, the bangles didn't make the playoff oh, that's right, the bangles didn't make it okay bangles didn't make it the um the browns did though.

00:20:27.727 --> 00:20:29.612
Yeah, yeah, but the order is different.

00:20:30.382 --> 00:20:34.307
The order is different, so the Bengals didn't make the playoffs.

00:20:34.307 --> 00:20:35.170
There's really no surprise.

00:20:38.266 --> 00:20:42.266
Everybody has the Bengals making the playoffs this year, so you have zero surprise.

00:20:42.266 --> 00:20:43.478
There's always a team that jumps up.

00:20:43.660 --> 00:20:45.126
The Browns are a surprise.

00:20:45.126 --> 00:20:46.406
The Browns aren't supposed to be there.

00:20:46.406 --> 00:20:46.890
They made it last year.

00:20:46.890 --> 00:20:47.737
Yeah, browns aren't supposed to be there.

00:20:47.737 --> 00:20:48.240
They made it last year.

00:20:48.240 --> 00:20:53.803
Yeah, but they weren't supposed to be there this year, because joe flacco is better than the sean watson.

00:20:53.823 --> 00:20:54.806
I don't know about that.

00:20:54.806 --> 00:20:55.750
I don't know about that man.

00:20:55.750 --> 00:20:58.097
All right, okay, all right.

00:20:58.097 --> 00:21:00.385
Well, that that's who you have making it.

00:21:00.385 --> 00:21:04.961
And then, uh, you've got the chiefs going to the super bowl yep, okay, all right.

00:21:05.683 --> 00:21:07.888
So I I have my Walker.

00:21:07.888 --> 00:21:09.132
So again, I've got the bangles.

00:21:09.132 --> 00:21:11.208
I have the bangles winning the North.

00:21:11.208 --> 00:21:13.480
I've got the Texans winning the South.

00:21:13.480 --> 00:21:16.484
The bills went in the East, the chiefs went in the West.

00:21:16.484 --> 00:21:17.565
So those are my top four.

00:21:17.565 --> 00:21:24.289
Then number five with the wild card, I've got the Baltimore Ravens in the wild card spot.

00:21:24.289 --> 00:21:25.132
Okay.

00:21:30.460 --> 00:21:34.252
Then I have the miami dolphins in that sixth spot making the playoffs wait the dolphins are six.

00:21:34.272 --> 00:21:34.574
Whoa, yeah, yeah.

00:21:34.574 --> 00:21:35.817
Well, they're not gonna be number three.

00:21:35.817 --> 00:21:36.460
The the bills.

00:21:36.460 --> 00:21:37.040
How are they gonna?

00:21:37.040 --> 00:21:46.303
The bills are gonna the bills are gonna win the division oh, they're not man, it's gonna be a dolphin, yeah bills are gonna win the division okay, so that's why the dolphins are in the wild card.

00:21:46.663 --> 00:21:52.224
So they're the uh six spot and then the team that makes it into that final spot.

00:21:52.224 --> 00:21:53.186
This was tough.

00:21:53.186 --> 00:21:54.450
It was between two teams.

00:21:54.450 --> 00:21:57.483
I wrestled back and forth but I finally settled on.

00:21:57.483 --> 00:22:00.108
It is going to be the jacksonville jaguars.

00:22:00.108 --> 00:22:02.152
Okay, out of the south.

00:22:02.152 --> 00:22:06.688
Yes, trevor lawrence is going to lead them to the playoffs.

00:22:06.728 --> 00:22:08.652
Trevor Lawrence is going to lead them home, oh yeah.

00:22:09.740 --> 00:22:12.529
Head and shoulders is going to lead them to the playoffs.

00:22:12.529 --> 00:22:13.846
They will claim that final spot.

00:22:13.846 --> 00:22:15.660
It was close between them and the Chargers.

00:22:15.660 --> 00:22:24.567
I think Harbaugh is going to really push them to be close, but I think the Chargers finish in that eighth spot and just miss the playoffs.

00:22:24.567 --> 00:22:30.192
Jacksonville Jaguars are going to make the playoffs and they're going to be in that final spot.

00:22:30.192 --> 00:22:34.090
But to go to the Super Bowl, I've got Cincinnati Bengals.

00:22:34.090 --> 00:22:41.574
I think the Bengals are going to beat the Chiefs in the AFC championship game once again.

00:22:41.574 --> 00:22:44.424
Yes, they own them.

00:22:44.705 --> 00:22:45.989
So when was that again?

00:22:45.989 --> 00:22:46.711
How many years ago?

00:22:46.711 --> 00:22:48.586
How many years ago was that?

00:22:48.645 --> 00:22:52.710
Burroughs Stadium and Casey, he is going to reclaim his stadium.

00:22:52.710 --> 00:22:56.778
And, yes, they are going to win that and that was in 2021 when that happened.

00:22:56.778 --> 00:23:01.279
Okay, well, hey, it will be 2025 at this point when this happens.

00:23:01.299 --> 00:23:05.525
It was 2022 technically, but the 2021 season, so it was 2022.

00:23:05.525 --> 00:23:06.465
It was a long time ago.

00:23:06.506 --> 00:23:07.366
Well, the bangles.

00:23:07.366 --> 00:23:08.608
The bangles will be back.

00:23:08.608 --> 00:23:10.750
She's won two Superbowl since then.

00:23:10.750 --> 00:23:14.715
The bangles will be back and they will go ahead and win it.

00:23:14.715 --> 00:23:19.190
