0:00
That's the case. I think the best way to kind of cap this off. I mean, we've actually very evenly covered all of the teams, which is kind of nice
0:08
You know, usually we wind up ignoring one or two of them. So I guess what I would say is that here we are on May 19th of 2022
0:17
And so I want you preliminarily. You know, you're not going to be held to this. It's not gospel. But put them in order from four to one how they'll finish
0:26
I want, I need, I'm going to put 10 caveats on this. I don't, if it finishes in the opposite order, I don't want to take, ish from people
0:35
But it's going to be fun. I have no confidence. This is a rare time where I have such a little confidence in what I'm saying, because
0:42
this is a prediction that is incredibly hard for me. Do I bet against the Chiefs yet
0:47
Do I go all in on the Broncos with a new quarterback and a completely new everything
0:51
Who knows? Maybe Russ Wilson doesn't even have it anymore ever he's got beat on in Seattle. Do I go all in on the fact that I think Derek Carr's a really good quarterback
0:58
Do I think the Chargers did enough? I don't know. So I'm going to go. Oh, my God
1:03
I hate this. I hate it. Oh, I hate this so much. Because I really have what Casey did in the draft, too
1:09
I'm going to go KC1. No, I'm going to go KC1, which is, it feels like a cop-out, but it's not to me
1:15
I, I'm going to go, I'm going to go, I'm going to go Denver 2
1:22
Man, I'm going to go with the Raiders 3. And I feel so bad because that leaves the greatest
1:29
animated video of all time. The Chargers bringing up the rear for
1:35
And shout out to that dude whose name I don know but it was done in that put out one of the greatest mini productions I ever seen It just legitimately flawless But I can see the Chargers coming in forth I absolutely can
1:52
I think we're going to make a Charger Nation extremely angry because I'm going to go in reverse order
1:58
I think the Chargers are fourth. My issue is actually I just don't like their coach Staley at all
2:06
I know you don't agree with me. I know you don't agree with me with
2:11
how their season ended, but I'm never going to agree with how that went down
2:15
Well, I just don't blame him. I'm fine, but out of all of the coaches, I mean, Nathaniel Hackett's kind of a wildcard
2:23
so we don't know yet. But out of all of the coaches that we do know, I think McDaniels is better than he is, just
2:29
right out the jump. All right. Now Chargers Nation is going to be pissed at you. I'm just saying
2:34
I don't. I do not like Rand and Staley. We need a title this clip and put it in Chargers groups that McDaniels
2:41
is a better coach is better than staley yeah uh i have can this is kind of hinting at how i feel like
2:49
kansas city's trajectory is going to be identical to the golden state warriors where in three years time
2:55
we're going to see how they built their roster around patrick mahomes and be like this is exactly
2:59
why the charles the chris the kansas city chiefs are who they are i think they'll finish third
3:04
in this division they still are going to go 11 and 6 or even 12 and 5 i can guarantee that
3:11
They will make the playoffs, but they're going to be in third place just on head to head
3:16
It's just a murderer's row. Then I have the Raiders finishing higher than Kansas City, surprisingly
3:25
I think the addition of Devante Adams and again I think everybody going to be just so surprised I think Derrick Carr is going to be a legitimate MVP candidate that everyone is going to be like where did this come from where we known this whole time
3:40
Right, we're going to know that. So I'm actually going to have the Raiders, surprisingly, at number two, Las Vegas Raiders
3:48
And I am going to have Denver as number one. I think that Russ especially mile high where he's going to be
3:54
I mean, if we think about this from an actual like football ice is in O
3:58
standpoint. We both agree, Russell Wilson's best trait, his deep ball is is the best in the game
4:04
His accuracy down the field 30 plus yards is insane. And then you have the home advantage of
4:12
mile high where cornerbacks and safeties are going to be just barely able to breathe. The air
4:20
is going to be so thin for that ball to get through. I mean, Peyton Manning, the scrub that he is
4:26
was able to have record-breaking years his first time there. I blame that on the air rather than him because I'm a hit
4:34
55 touchdowns his first season, if I recall correctly. I'm going to tell you right now, I think Russ is going to be exactly the same
4:40
I would put all of the overs embedding stats for Russell Wilson for passing
4:46
I honestly don't think that Jerry Judy thinks that big a deal. It will not matter who he's throwing to
4:51
I don't even know if Deshaun Hamilton's still on that team. but whoever, Tim Patrick, Deshawn Hamilton, KJ Hamler, maybe none of them are on the team anymore
5:00
I don't know. They've had a lot of turnover, but like literally it could be just any by Cortland Sutton, I think is going to pop off
5:08
Denver I think is going to be I kind of giving the game away here I think they winning the Super Bowl I going to say it right now they going to win the Super Bowl with Russell Wilson And so I have them winning the division and winning the Super Bowl I outside of my primary couple teams that I rooting for to win the Super Bowl
5:29
I would love to see Denver win it because I want Russ to get number two
5:33
Well, it would be super cool for Russ, but also it would validate so many things about what we believe
5:39
And this would be the third year in a row that a veteran quarterback switches teams and leads
5:43
his new team to a Super Bowl title. And again, kind of should, I mean, these things don't always happen the way you think
5:52
logically, but should start to reshape some of roster construction in the NFL
5:56
I think what sums up all of this AFC absurdity, AFC West specifically absurdity, is the fact
6:04
that both you and I put the Chargers dead last in this division
6:09
But neither one of us would be at all. surprised if the Chargers won this division. We don't, we're not picking them too. But if we won them
6:19
if they won the division, we wouldn't be like, wow, how did that happen? We would be like, oh, cool
6:23
the Chargers won the division. Like that's, in this way, I, haters going to say, yeah, no disrespect
6:29
And I, and people say, oh, that's a cop out. Oh, you just, oh, you can't be wrong. If you think all of them
6:34
can win it. It's not about being right or wrong here. We're just talking about this strength of this
6:38
division is ridiculous. And there's so many newcomers that are going to play so much
6:43
from coaches to draft picks to veteran acquisitions that are going to play a massive role in how
6:49
these teams pan out or don't pan out
