00:00And the Steelers, I don't know what to make of the Steelers here.
00:04221 and one touchdown for Aaron Rodgers.
00:07It wasn't like they ran the ball particularly great.
00:11I could have seen a play or two go the other way and the Falcons win the game.
00:16I'm still confused with what the Falcons are moving forward here.
00:20Yeah, it felt like their game plan, Joe, yesterday, I watched this one too.
00:25It felt like their game plan was one of those bend, don't breaks,
00:28and we're just going to throw the ball to Bijan a million times,
00:32try to not turn the ball over, and then if we have to turn the ball over,
00:35we're going to turn it over in the red zone, which is, of course, what they did,
00:38and they ended up losing the game.
00:40So, you know, the Falcons are probably not going to be very good.
00:44I think that with Penix, they'll probably force him back, it sounds like, this week to play.
00:50And, Joe, you know what that's going to look like.
00:52It's going to be 250 yards.
00:54It's going to be two touchdowns.
00:55It's going to be two interceptions.
00:56It's going to be a high-scoring game against whoever they play
00:59because their defense isn't really good, but they're going to score some points.
01:01Because Penix is okay.
01:03He'll be better than Cooper Rush.
01:05I think they simply didn't ask Cooper Rush to do anything, and so he did nothing.
01:09And that was the bottom line there.
01:11But you're right, skill position-wise, you have Drake London,
01:13and you can't get him the ball.
01:15It feels a lot like Jefferson of last year when they couldn't get him the ball,
01:19and now you see what happened to Jefferson, how good he was yesterday.
01:21And as far as Pittsburgh goes, Joe, looked like the same team to me, man.
01:26I don't know.
01:26Looked like exactly the same team.
01:28The team that's going to go 9-8, make the playoffs, get knocked out for a short round.
01:33I didn't see anything great.
01:34I didn't see anything bad.
01:35I know that from a betting perspective, at 12.55 p.m., you just make sure TJ Watt is playing.
01:44Or TJ Watt, excuse me.
01:46You make sure TJ Watt is playing.
01:47If he is, you got a good shot at them covering or winning, and if he's not, they lose.
01:51TJ Watt is the most valuable defensive player on the Steelers by far.
01:58They don't win without him.
02:00So that's sort of my take on Pittsburgh.
02:02Pittsburgh, same team, and for Atlanta, it's going to be a very anonymous season.
02:07They're going to win some.
02:07They're going to lose some.
02:08I don't think that you're going to think any better or worse about them as the season goes on.
02:12By the way, 1-0 Dodgers taking a lead here in the second inning.
02:16Kyle Tucker, who has now found his groove on the road here a little bit.
02:19He played well in Miami.
02:20He just hit a home run against Cincinnati, so they lead 1-0.
02:24That's the only score on the board early in baseball right now.
02:27Yeah, DK Metcalf, too, had a couple of stupid drops in the game.
02:33I mean, awful stuff.
02:35Did not help Aaron Rodgers.
02:36They have no running game.
02:38If it's going to be just Aaron Rodgers dinking and dunking his way down the field, you're right.
02:43They're going to need Watt to have more pick sixes, because the only reason they won that game
02:47He's great, man.
02:47Because Watt and a pick sixes, both those teams are going to have a rough go of it.
02:55Maybe not against other middle-of-the-road teams, but against some of the better competition.
03:01Those teams are going to be in trouble in a big, and I mean big, big way here.
03:06But good win, and a lot of people had Pittsburgh in survivor pools yesterday because of that
03:12big movement.
03:14Yep, they took him.
03:14I mean, congrats, you're going to, again, go out and buy a Watt jersey, because he's
03:19the only reason you got away with that.
03:22Do not know that the Ravens are as good offensively as the 41 points they scored, or if the Colts
03:29defense is that bad.
03:32I think it may be somewhere in between a buck 44 for Derrick Henry, 150 for Zay Flowers, 324
03:40for Lamar.
03:42Are the Colts just bad defensively?
03:45Probably not as bad as we saw.
03:48And look, Lamar Jackson is now playing with the ultimate chip on the shoulder.
03:51He was throwing downfield way more than I've seen him over the last couple of years.
03:58And boy, get ready to bet heavy on Zay Flowers this year, Joe.
04:01I know he got banged up yesterday, but boy, if he is healthy, I mean, I'm not going to say
04:06number one receiver in the NFL, Joe, but get on board the Zay Flowers train, because he
04:13is dangerous, man, in that open field.
04:15And it looks like Lamar does not want to fire the ball over the middle anymore.
04:20Like Mark Andrews?
04:21No.
04:22So long.
04:22We're going deep.
04:24Bye-bye now.
04:24Bye-bye now.
