Phillin Time Episode 2

The host of the Film Time Podcast apologizes for the delay and explains the challenges of juggling a job, three dogs, and podcasting. They preview what's to come in the episode, including discussing the crisis in the Middle East, recapping the highs and lows of week 5 in their fantasy football league, analyzing the waiver wire, and previewing the week 6 matchups. They then go through the results of the week 5 matchups, highlighting the standout performances and low scores. The highest scoring matchup was between Weldon Davis and Drew Keller, with Weldon's team coming out on top. The lowest score of the week was Reggie Hale's team. All right, guys, we are back. We are back. We are so, so back. Welcome to the Film Time Podcast, episode 2, week 6. Don't really know how that works, but here we are in week 6 of the fantasy football season in the vaunted Blue Men group. I am your host, Philip White. I apologize for the delay. Who would have thought trying to do a podcast while also having a job and three dogs? You can't do it all, guys. I'm out there working. I'm trying to do my best for the county. Just a humble public servant here in Harris County. And also, I got to do a podcast. Sorry, guys. I wasn't up to it last week. Couldn't have time for it, but I'm back now, and it won't happen again until it does, and then I will apologize again, and we'll just keep this train going. Once again, Philip White here, your boy, the owner of Vandalay Industries, the vaunted Vandalay Industries, who are currently two and three. That's neither here nor there. Today's podcast, we're going to talk about a couple things. We're going to address the crisis in the Middle East. We'll also address who the highs and lows were this past week in week 5 in the Blue Men group. We'll touch on that waiver wire, see what the big bidding went to for certain players here and there. We'll also go into the fact that Steve Scalise won the Speaker of the House nomination for the Republicans. And if we have time, we'll go to a match-up preview for week 6 in the Blue Men group fancy football league. So it's a pretty big day ahead of us today. What we'll do first, though, is kind of go through a recap and see what happened here in week 5. Okay, guys. Stay tuned. All right, we are back. And let's go through that week 5 recap for the Blue Men group. So we had Stanley Nichols and Josh versus the White Lobster and Turner Dawson. In this match-up, the Stanley Nichols got a much, much, much needed win, scoring 80.52 points against the White Lobster's 74.74. The Stanley Nichols were carried by the play of George Pickens, putting up 24.6. The White Lobster was brought down by Devontae Smith, putting up a 1.1. This is, yes, THE Devontae Smith, the man who was, I think, top 10 receiver the second half of the year last year in the NFL, in terms of fantasy points per game, putting up a 1.1. In terms of fantasy points per game, putting up a 1.1. And somehow Stanley Nichols got the win. You know how he did it? Kier. It was by the player's kicker, the kicker from Texas. We all know his name, Kaimi Fairbarian, putting up 15 points. You know, Turner's always been so pro-kicker, so it's funny that he would be one to hurt by the kickers. But really, the man who loves kickers more than anybody got beat by a kicker. That's tough to swallow. But nevertheless, Stanley Nichols gets the W there against Turner, Dawson, and the White Lobster. Our next matchup was Milchak, Alan Morgan, and Drew Keller. Once again, it's a travesty that two owners can co-own a team, but we'll deal with that in the offseason. Now, in this matchup, the team of Milchak was carried by 27.9 points from Brees Hall, followed by Gabe Davis putting up a 20-point game in London. He sounded like he was from London town, and he scored like it. Broccoli Rob was brought down by Tank Bigsby, putting up 0.8 points. Also, Romeo Dobbs putting up a 0.9. Not the best matchup this week for Broccoli Rob, and they currently sit at 0-5. If you hear a different voice next year, it may be Daniel's. I hope not, because I love doing this for y'all. But Daniel, please take over. You're 0-5. Just take it now if you want. We'll call it even. Alright, our next matchup was Dingo Babies. Spencer Binkendorfer taking a W against Aaron Burks. I can never pronounce Aaron's team name, but it's that one with the cousins who are dangerous. Dingo Babies got the win, 123.16 over Aaron's 113.96. Dingo Babies was carried by a nice little, well, really pretty consistent all the way around. 15.4 from Jordan Addison. 16.8 from Kump. 14.8 from Mostert after the Devon A-chain hurt injury. And Kirk Cousins putting up 19.86. Really, no standouts. Just a very consistent game from Dingo Babies. Aaron was brought down by Jonathan Taylor, putting up 3.9 points. I think before that game, all of us would have thought that if someone would have really taken control over that Indianapolis backfield and scored 33.5 points, we thought it would have been probably Jonathan Taylor. But no, it was Zach Moss. And Zach Moss was just sitting there on Spencer's bench, because why would you play Zach Moss when Jonathan Taylor's coming back? So either way, Dingo Babies gets the W against Aaron's, the cousins who are dangerous. Alright, our highest scoring matchup of the week was Drew Keller. And by Drew Keller, I mean Corey Stone. Drew Keller putting up 144.68, which would have been good against a lot of people. But it wasn't good enough against Weldon Davis. Kicker Swansong scoring 162.06 points. Weldon's team was carried in large part. Well, once again, no standouts really. Oh wait, hold up. Etienne putting up 35.4, 136 yards and two touchdowns. That'll do it. Adam Thielen putting up 23.2. Devon Achane putting up 22 points. McCaffrey, you know, at this point, if you have three running backs, Achane, McCaffrey, and Etienne, and McCaffrey's the lowest scorer with 12.8, you know you're doing something right. Kicker Swansong put up 162 points. Drew Keller, and by Drew Keller, I mean Corey Stone. Also, good game. Kittle put up 26.2 with his three touchdowns against my Dallas Cowboys. Zephon Diggs, 21 points. Montgomery, 20.9. You know what, hold up. Let's talk about Montgomery for a second. Did y'all see the quote this week where Dan Campbell was talking about the Detroit Lions backfield? And he said that Montgomery's their bell cow. They're 15, 20, 25, 30 carry a guy. And Jamar Gibbs is their change of pace back? They used a first round pick, a top 15 pick, for a change of pace? They could have gotten Tajee Spears in the third round or second round, wherever he went. But no, instead, they drafted somebody in the first round to be a change of pace back. And here's the thing. They're 4-1. They're a very good team. I saw someone tweet today that you're not mad that they wasted their first round pick. You're mad that you drafted them in the third round. And as someone who owns Jamar Gibbs in a different league, I can attest, yes, I am mad that I drafted them in the third round. Lions can keep winning all they want. But you know what? They're making me mad and I don't like it. Anyways, we were talking about something. Oh, yeah. Kicker Swanson getting the W. Good job, Weldon. Weldon's team goes to 3-2 for the year. Also, we had Bad Hombres keep chugging along. Bad Hombres putting up 162.72 points against Scrantonicity 2. Reggie Hale 66.22. Bad Hombres was carried this week by a 45-point game for DJ Moore on that Thursday night. Jalen Hurts putting up 27.32. 29.1 from Tyreek Hill. When your receiver puts up 45 points on a Thursday night game, I imagine that Armando was feeling pretty good going into the weekend. That's a great feeling. I hope to experience that for myself sometime. Scrantonicity was brought down by 2.5 from Tyreek Hill, 8.2 from Alave. That's not terrible, but still. James Cook, who's been on fire this year, putting up 3.6 and negative 4 yards. Okay, that's crazy. Let's see who else. What happened there? Yeah, it's just a weird week. Reggie's team has some good players, but just whatever happened, I think James Cook and Tyreek Hill combining for less than 10 points probably could have won you a lot of money in Vegas this week. But Bad Hombres takes the big, big W. Bad Hombres sitting at 4-1. Scrantonicity falls to 1-4. All right, it's not really important, but our highest score of the week may have been Jonathan Slusser. And I don't know, maybe I played him. I'm not bitter. It is what it is. I put up a solid, a genuine, a good-hearted 104 points just trying to chug along, but it matters not when your opponent scores 172.98 in a half PPR lead. Jonathan Slusser is our Mountain Dew dude who do the most this week. And he was carried by Justin Fields, putting up 32.98 on that Thursday night game, throwing four touchdowns, three of those to DJ Moore. He also had a nice, nice showing out from Jamar Chase, who I guess decided he wants to play football now. He said last week that he's always open. I guess that Burrow got the memo this week and went on to throw him 15 catches, 192 yards, and three touchdowns. Also, some good showings from Alvin Kamara, putting up 17.2, 80 yards and a touchdown. And, you know, Kamara in that game got a lot of work, 22 catches, sorry, 22 carries for 80 yards and a touchdown, three catches, 17, not the 14 receptions for 33 yards that he had the week before. But Kamara is a staple in that Saints backfield, and he is being used like a workhorse. So, Jonathan Slusser got the win this week against Vanderlay Industries. My team was brought down by Kincaid. I had to play Kincaid. I didn't want to. I had to. I get it. 2.9 from him. I mean, 6.3 from Bryan Robinson. Devontae Adams only getting 6.5. Okay, that's wild. I really do hope that Devontae Adams gets traded out of Las Vegas. Las Vegas is currently sitting at one and, oh no, two and four, I believe. Or is it two and three? Anyway, the team is bad enough. I don't want him there. I don't want Jimmy G throwing to him. Let's get Devontae Adams to Detroit. Let's get him to somewhere else. Let's get him out of that hellscape because the fact that my man, who is a beast, only got four targets is ridiculous. Like we said before, John Inslusser is our mountain dude, dude who do the most. Like that thing in physics, for everything, there's something else. We also have a lowest score of the week. Unfortunately, that's going to be Reggie Hale in Scrantonicity 2, putting up 66.22 points. Reggie, I'm sorry. I got to give it to you. You are our Listerine, dude who do the least amount of points scored. It's a mouthful, but so is Listerine. All right, wait for the check. Wait for the check. There we go. That's good. Anyways, yeah, John did good. Reggie did bad. That's what we got going on right now in the Blue Man Group after week five of our Fantasy League. Let's go through the standings right now in the Blue Man Group, kind of see what's going on and what we can do to kind of shake it up a little bit. I'll start from top to bottom. In first place right now, Drew Keller, and by Drew Keller, I mean Corey Stone, sitting at four and one. In second place, Bad Hombres at four and one. Armando, nice job. Dingo Babies in third place at four and one as well. Spencer, good work. In fourth place right now, three and two, is Weldon Davis' Kicker Swansong, followed by Turner Dawson at three and two as well in fifth place. The Cousins, who are dangerous. Aaron Burks, it seems, at three and two. Behind him is Milchek with two owners. Not really fair. We'll deal with that later. In eighth place, not showing off, not falling behind, Vandalay Industries, sitting right there on the attack at two and three. Stanley Nichols, despite all their injuries and complaining, at two and three in ninth place. Sweet, sweet victory. David Slusser got his first win this past week, putting up 172 points at one and four. Scrantonicity in 11th place at one and four as well. And then the man at the very bottom of the league right now, he's not doing well. The Detroit Lions are doing well, but he is not. Broccoli Rob sitting at oh and five. And in terms of the most scored points this year, we have the person who scored the most all year is Drew Keller, and by Drew Keller, I mean Corey Stone. He has put up 726.28 points through five weeks. And the person who's put up the least amount of points is Stanley Nichols at 469.34. Now, there's always something to look at. The person who has had the most points scored against them is Jonathan Slusser in sweet, sweet victory at 696.64, followed by Vandalay Industries at 678.74. It's not that fair, guys. Me and Sluss should be just putting the playoffs right now because it's not fair and we don't want to do this anymore. All right, that's a recap of week five of the Fantasy League. Let's now go to the waiver wire and see who spent money where. All right, guys, stay tuned. All right, we are back. And I want you all to know that we here at Fill in Time, we strive to report accurate news to you, the viewers and listeners. The last thing we want to do is tell you something that we know is wrong or lie to you or mislead you. Someone earlier on the podcast had mentioned that Tyreek Hill put up a 2.5 point for Reggie this week. And if that person had really leaned in and looked at the actual scores, he would have seen that it was a T. Hill from New Orleans who put up a 2.5, not a T. Hill from the Miami Dolphins who put up a 29.1. And looking back, I literally just said that Tyreek put up 29.1 about a minute before I said he then put up a 2.5. Viewers, I want to apologize. I pride myself as a man of faith. I pride myself as somebody who knows better. I don't know when I'll put this headset on again, honestly, after that mistake. But looking back, I know I can reflect on this and I will do better going forward with the information that you need to make your fantasy football experience the best that you can do. All right, after that now, let's go into the waiver wires for this past week. Those wires went available Wednesday at 11 o'clock. All right, so we had, first and foremost, with the news that Devon Achan getting hurt, we had Josh Reichard snapping up Jeff Wilson Jr. for 27 units. We also had Romeo Dobbs being dropped by Broccoli Robb and snapping up K.J. Osborne with Justin Jefferson going on the IR. He will be out for the next four weeks. So that receiving corps right now, that was really gross, is going to be Jordan Addison and K.J. Osborne with T.J. Hawkinson probably getting a majority of work. That Minnesota situation is really, really weird. They're sitting at one and four, I want to say. Kirk Cousins does have a no trade clause because I don't know why they would give him that, but he does. And really, if the team doesn't keep winning, what incentive is there for Justin Jefferson to come back this year and rush anything? So he's going to be out at least four games, if not more. I mean, who knows what they're going to do, if they're going to trade Kirk Cousins, if they're going to keep trying to chug along. That team being one and four is pretty wild after making the playoffs last year. But even last year, they were elite in winning one score game, and everyone kind of knew they weren't a real playoff team. And we saw that when they lost to the Giants in week one of the wild card round. So anyways, we have K.J. Osborne going to Brockley Rock. We have Spencer Bickendorfer dropping Michael Gallivan, picking up Justice Hill for 16 units. We have the White Lobsters dropping Joshua Dobbs and picking up that running back, Imari DiMercado from the Arizona Cardinals, who is second on the deck chart behind Keontae Ingram. We also have Deontay Foreman being picked up by Spencer Bickendorfer, Dingo Babies, and dropping Cam Akers. We also had Ketner Swansong dropping Allen Lazard and picking up Chase Claypool for 16. So nothing too crazy this past week. I think the big get was trying to get Jeff Wilson, and it seems like Stanley Nichols able to snag him for 27 units. Let's go to the budget information and kind of see what we're all kind of playing with this rest of the year. Let's see, budget summary. So currently, with five weeks through the NFL season, with going into week six, we have Jonathan Slusser with eight units left. We have Aaron Burks with 64, Mondo with 91, so that man barely touched his fab. We have Drew Keller, and by Drew Keller, I mean Corey Stone with 11 units left. We have Weldon Davis with 84, a lot of the stockpile there, just like Mondo. We have Turner Dawson with 46, Spencer Bickendorfer with 35, Josh Reichard with 36, Brock Lee Robb with 68. Brock Lee Robb would be a great name for a basketball team, but Brock Lee Robb with 68. We have Milchak with a very funny three. Yes, three units. Reggie Hale with 84, and Phillip White with 88. That is your free agent summary. Remember that we're in a weird spot now with fantasy. I can't imagine too many more big ticket items are going to come down the pipe, but at the same time, who knows? There's always one injury away from someone else being a step up, and I say this every year, and I think it every year, but it feels like this year, injuries are higher than normal. I think we all feel that way, but it just feels like they're higher than normal. I saw something today that the first round, the first overall pick for the last four or five years hasn't played a full season in about four or five years. You had Justin Jefferson this year who's going to miss at least four games. I know we had CMC. I don't think CMC was going first overall last year. Who was going first overall last year? Was it Jonathan Taylor? Yeah, probably. Jonathan Taylor in a lot of leagues didn't play a full season. CMC back in 2021 and 2020 was not playing full seasons. He got hurt both those years when he played in Carolina. So there's something to the idea that if you invest in something and love it, it will break your heart. And fantasy football is great at reminding you about that. Okay, guys, we're going to now move on to the week ahead, kind of go through the matches we have for this week and see which two teams really just hate each other. All right, stay tuned. All right, guys, let's get back into the week six of the fantasy football season. But hold on now, I'm getting emergency news from Josh Rutherford right now that Steve Scalise has withdrawn to be the Speaker of the House as a Republican nomination. We will monitor that situation closely here at the no-spin zone, I call it. We will see what's going on. I'll keep my ear on the pulse and I'll let y'all know when I know from my sources what is going on. But until we find out exactly what is, to quote Marvin Gaye, what is going on, I don't know. But let's now move on to week six of the fantasy football season. So we have our matchups this week. And as I vamp and try to find those matchups, let's talk about week six coming up this week. We'll start with our first one. It's going to be Milchak sitting at three and two. Alan Morgan and Drew Keller somehow are allowed to own one team. I don't get it and you don't get it either, but that's neither here nor there. They are going up against Josh Reichard and Stanley Nichols sitting at two and three. Guys, I don't gotta tell ya, when these two go against each other, throw those records out the window. It's all about what's on the field and these two teams are foaming at the mouth to go at it. Well, we also have White Lobster, Turner Dawson, playing Spencer Minkendorfer's Dingo Babies. Turner Dawson sitting at three and two and Dingo Babies at four and one. You know, these two guys, they've had their past differences, but I really hope they can keep it clean this week. I'll keep an ear out if I hear something else and let you know. Daniel Salmon and Broccoli Rob at oh and five and Johnson Slusser at one and four. Guys, brother against brother. I'm concerned about this one. These two old friends, old, old, they work together, they want the best for each other. It's just tough to see them go at it like this. So desperate at oh and five and one and four. I hate to say that this is for the blue man, but this one in week six could be decided who does this podcast next week. I say that, but I can also lose and do it again because I am at two and three. Vandale Industries playing Reggie Hale. Scranton City at one and four. Reggie, I love you, but I really hope you lose this week. Nothing personal. I just don't want to do this again. We also have Weldon Davis's Kicker Swan Song at three and two, playing Mondo at four and one. Pretty good matchup there by two high scoring teams. And finally, we have Aaron Burks, the Cousins Who Are Dangerous, playing Corey Stone. I apologize, playing Drew Keller. And by Drew Keller, I mean Corey Stone sitting at four and one. So a lot of good matchups this week. Hopefully that those teams who are four and one all lose. I love y'all, but I mean that. And we can kind of just get a little more parity in this league. Because I want to sit there at that sixth spot. I want to sneak on those playoffs. And that's where I thrive. Unassuming. My team's not that good, but it could be if everything breaks right. So that's our week six matchup this week. What we're going to do now is kind of shift more towards the Philip White, Stone Cold Lock of the Weeks. Stay tuned and don't change that dial, guys. We'll be back in a second. It'll be smooth, Jimmy's Lock of the Week. Oh, that's a big lock, all right. Guys, it's here. Phil's Stone Cold Lock of the Week. Disregard the Jimmy's thing you just heard of that promo. We can't pay to fix it. But now we're here for Phil's Stone Cold Locks of the Week. Now, I am someone who likes betting. I am not good at it. I wish I was better at it. I am someone who likes betting. I am not good at it. I wish I was. My wife wished I was, and that's fine. That's on her, not me. But I still like to bet. I still like to put some money on a game. And I want to give you my Stone Cold Lock of the Week. Now, a couple matchups this week that kind of incite me, that kind of interest me a little bit. Florida State's at home against Syracuse. Florida State's minus 17 and a half at home. To me, Syracuse is not that good. I think Florida State can win this game by 21 points. I kind of look at that one a little bit. That one's kind of exciting. We also have LSU minus 11 at home against Auburn. Guys, we've seen Auburn play. They can be really, really bad. And they also can kind of hang with Georgia. That one's kind of weird. I don't want to touch that one too much. One that I think is a good, good pick, and this is my Stone Cold College Lock of the Week, is North Carolina at home against Miami. Carolina's 5-0. They've got Drake May playing quarterback. They're minus 3 and a half. Now, this is a game right here at home in Chapel Hill. I think that Carolina is a good, good team. I think Miami, I don't know a thing about Miami. Mike Cristobal is a crazy, crazy coach. Did y'all watch that game this past week? They had the lead against Georgia Tech. All they had to do was take a knee, and the man ran it. And the running back, who may have been down, fumbles the ball. Georgia Tech then gets the ball back with less than a minute left, with 30 seconds left, I think. They then throw a Hail Mary from the 50-yard line, probably 45, 50-yard line, and Georgia Tech wins the game against Miami at home. People start throwing trash on the field. It was a wild, wild scene. Now, that does not mean that Miami is a bad football team. I just think North Carolina is a good, good football team. That is my Stone Cold College Lock of the Week. North Carolina, minus 3.5 against Miami. All right, looking at the NFL slate a little bit. Any games kind of stick out for the NFL. We have Falcons, minus 2.5 at home against the Commanders. I don't really like that. I don't think Commanders are very good, but I don't think Washington is very good either. We have the Jags, minus 4 against Indianapolis, without Anthony Richardson. That's kind of interesting. You know, Garner Minshew can keep them in games. He can make some throws. The Jags are a really weird team this year. I think we all assumed they'd be better, but, you know, looking back, if you think about it, they should have lost to the Chargers. They only came back from, what, 20 points, 24 points against the Chargers in that wild-card playoff game. If they lose that game, if they get loaned out in that game, I think we're all thinking about the Jags a little differently in the offseason and this year. I think we're kind of thinking more about a team that's not there yet, but they were the self-anointed AFC South champs, it felt like, and we're seeing a team now with an O-line that's not very good. We're seeing some issues with the defense getting a slice and dice, and they played good in London last week, which was great, but, you know, the Jags are just a weird, weird team, and I wonder, they should be able to beat Indianapolis. They should be able to win by 4 points, but that seems a really weird team to bet on right now. We also have the 49ers and Browns. That line was minus 8 this morning. It is now minus 9.5, so a lot of movement on the Niners against Cleveland in Cleveland. We have the Texans at home against New Orleans, minus 1.5, the Raiders minus 2.5 against the Patriots, the Lions minus 3 in Tampa Bay. We have the Rams minus 7 against the Cards, the Jets at home are 7-point dogs against the Eagles, the Bills at home against the New York Giants, minus 4.5, the Sunday night game. What are we doing? Why do we put New York Giants on all these prime-time games? They are not good. They weren't even good last year, really, either. Same thing like Minnesota. They were a team that won a lot of close-score games. They were a feisty bunch. They were a fun bunch to watch, that's for sure, but they weren't very good, and it's weird that we kind of leaned into them as well. I think most people would have said the two teams most at for regression this year going in were probably Minnesota and New York, and they're both sitting at 1-4 right now. And then finally, the Monday night game, we have the Cowboys at the Chargers. The Cowboys are a two-point favorite. Now, a lot of you know this. I'm a Cowboy fan. I know a lot of you are Cowboy fans. That game on this past Sunday night was embarrassing, and there's really no way to defend it. It looked like one team was more aggressive. It looked like one team actually wanted to be there, actually wanted to play, and I don't know the difference. Now, there are some ballers on that 49ers defense. There's no doubt about that. Fred Warner moving around that field and just taking away all the passing lines from the deck is so impressive, and that D-line and Greenlaw, all those guys on the 49ers defense were making Dak's life miserable. But still, the fact that we have no identity as an offense and the fact that we can't even move the ball, we didn't get our first first down until the second quarter. It was three and out, three and out, and then a fumble from Pollard within the 20-yard line that San Francisco then scored on. It's a really bad spot right now for the Cowboys. You saw the reports probably about CB Lamb being upset with the offense, and then Jerry Jones making a comment that, well, I want everyone to be involved. I don't really care if CB's upset. I want the tight ends to be involved. I want everyone to be involved. Well, our tight ends aren't that good. Jake Ferguson's a fine tight end. He's a better version of Dalton Schultz, and Dalton Schultz isn't that good. It is just wild to me that we have this Texas Coast offense, that we have a quarterback who's being paid over $140 million, $40 million, over $40 million a year, and he can only survive and only do well when he is surrounded by the best talent possible. And yet we know this about Dak Prescott, and we traded in Mari Cooper for a fifth-round pick. Now, Mari Cooper, you can say what you want about him, but he is a pro. He is good. And this team felt so confident that CD Lamb could take the next step. They sent away one of the best route runners in the AFC right now. Mari Cooper may not be a stud receiver like other people, but he is a route runner, and he is someone who's always where he's going to need to be. And you took that away from Dak two years ago, and the offense scored a lot of points last year, but when they play San Francisco, they just get into a rut they cannot get out of, and it is wild and frustrating to watch. It makes no sense. And you watch the defense, this vaunted Dallas Cowboy defense without Trayvon Diggs, which really, really hurts them, but nevertheless, they put up 170 yards of rushing against the Cowboys. So the Cowboys this past year, they realized they were too small, they're too quick, they don't have enough size on the inside, and they were getting run on. We saw it all last year. So what did they do? They drafted Nazi Smith in the first round for Michigan, hoping that he would be the D-tackle run-stuffer that they need. I don't know if he played in the first half last week. I don't know. This team is so good at a lot of things, and this team is so good at drafting in a lot of ways, but first-round pick on a defensive tackle, right there, put-your-nose-in-the-grind kind of guy, and the man can't get on the field. And what happens? San Francisco runs all over you. And what happens? Brock Purdy is delivering quick slants, quick digs. He's delivering the ball on a rope, and he is just slicing up the defense. So I know that wasn't the Cowboy Hour, but nevertheless, as a Cowboy fan, I've been pretty annoyed about this game for the last couple days. And it's one of those games when, you know, you lose to Arizona. It's frustrating. It's annoying. But at the end of the day, you go, well, it's Arizona. It was a weird 3 o'clock game in Arizona. Trayvon Diggs just got hurt a couple days before. They had that strength and conditioning coach who got sick or had a medical issue, I think it was, or something like that, a couple days before. The team's headset wasn't right. It wasn't a big game. We'll get through it. They lost to this San Francisco team back in January. This game has been on the calendar since the schedule's released, and they showed up so, so flat. So I don't know how you rationalize that. I don't know how you fix that, but it's incredibly disappointing to watch as a Cowboy fan. I assume other Cowboy fans in this group will agree with me. I have been a Dak Homer since day one. I think the man is not a bad quarterback, but I do think sometimes the moment gets too big for him. And he was making plays on Sunday night where he was too afraid to throw it. He was too afraid to make a play. And what would happen? He would try to run it. He would get sacked. He'd hold on the ball too long. And he threw one great deep ball to Brandon Cooks, except it was five yards out of bounds. But it was a beautiful throw. I will give him that. So anyways, guys, the Cowboys play the Chargers on Monday night. Kellen Moore is the OC now in Los Angeles, and it'll be really exciting to see what he can do with that team. The Chargers have been good. They've been scoring points. I think they're 2-2. I've got to check that here in a second. Our research department is looking at that right now. But it is a fun team to watch, and that's all you want sometimes, just a fun offense to watch with Herbert, Keenan Allen, and Austin Eckler coming back, Chau Su, Austin Eckler, owners coming back. That is going to be a lot of fun, and hopefully the Cowboys can get back on the right track and win this week because it doesn't get easier. They've got the Chargers, and then they've got the Rams, and they've got the Eagles. So the hope right there, I think, is to win two out of three. If they only win one out of those three, well, we'll deal with that when we get there. All right, guys. We'll do closing thoughts here in a second. Thank you so much. Boys and girls, I want to thank you again for listening to the Spillin' Time podcast. I want to apologize once again for not being on time the last couple weeks. I had a trial that happened, and it went well, but just preparing for that and doing other stuff, it can take a toll, and I apologize to y'all. I'm not getting it done sooner. I'll be better about it, and if I'm not, you'll hear this apology next week. All right, guys. The NFL games are about to start. It is 7-11 right now on this Thursday night, so let's go watch the Chiefs and the Broncos play. Blue Man Group, let's ride. Blue Man Group, let's go. Blue Man Group, let's go.
