So Victor, tell us how was your How was your holiday? gives us a quick 60 seconds what will happen these past two weeks.

Victor Arocho
The holidays are gray. My kids are home from Florida. They horrible everything. Everything was everything was fantastic. I can’t I can’t complain. Did they give you a AirPods? AirPods no I got a case for my Oculus I forgot what I got. I gotta buy Christmas for me to be honest with us more about my family like, you know, I would want is a card but a card that they write their feelings inside. Everything else I know, you know, I rather have it for them. Cool.

Santiago Leon
Cool. Well, this past weekend I watched the playoffs, believe it or not. And, you know, most of the games are pretty good, except the Philadelphia Seattle game.

Victor Arocho
Three out of four games when it’s over time went to overtime. That

Santiago Leon
was the first time in your lifetime that has ever happened, right?

Victor Arocho
I remember remember it. That’s a lot.

Santiago Leon
Let’s start with the first one bills versus the Houston Texans. I thought the bills were going to win.

Unknown
Um, yeah, I was talking I remember I told you I like Jackson

Santiago Leon
told me that hundred times.

Unknown
I’ve seen this kid with no fear. In the end zone, man. I mean when you can be a quarterback, and no fear in the end zone and he’s not doing like little, like little doll passes, he’s throwing downfield and that kids, kids fantastic.

Victor Arocho
the Buffalo Bills when his wife came back was turned around, man.

Santiago Leon
Yeah, Watson. He’s like when he starts running. That’s when he gets into his mode. Crickets.

Victor Arocho
Crickets? Yeah, you went. You went silent. I did. Yeah, watch they were losing 16 zero to watch. Got that sack.

Santiago Leon
Yeah, I’m the Buffalo Bills. Which was led by a guy named Josh Allen met the Houston Texans led by quarterback to Shawn Watson, the AMC wild card game. design. The shot Watson threw a touchdown pass and ran for score and regulation and then led the winning drive and overtime as a Texans adding another come back to Houston’s playoff history by rallying from a double digit second deficit for a 2219 victory over the Buffalo Bills in the first round of the playoffs Saturday. Were the bills a little bit amateur, do you think they’ll be like the team of the future and, you know, be better next year or that what do you think about the performance

Victor Arocho
of the team the future but I think with Brady on his way of retiring, I think they can start controlling the NFC East again. My thing that maybe wasn’t mature I know what I didn’t like about their game plan was is that they started off with Josh Allen running from 40 something yards. Then him catching a pass for a touchdown, right? And then they went away from all that kind of stuff. You know, I mean, they let this kid be who he was right and I just think that then they went just the traditional football in the second half. Well, that makes no sense you were up by 16 why not bring a little bit more that spark back into the game. Now he ended up running again, but they didn’t do a quarterback’s sweet they did a quarterback draw. They did everything else. They did one quarterback sweep that quarterbacks we lead to 43 yards. Then they did a quarterback throw back and he scored a touchdown. He’s the first rookie to score. Throw a touchdown run four times down and cats. Yeah.

Santiago Leon
Josh Allen player is really excited, has a great arm. He could run Well,

Victor Arocho
let me tell you about Joshua real quick because I know you never know these pieces you’re ready for the lesson is out there, the young brothers and anybody wants whatever they want out of life. Yes, Alan, was he not a recruited highly recruited quarterback coming out of high school? Okay. He ended up going to a junior college at Juco. He played for a junior college, and then he sent out 1000 emails to coaches and got one offer. And I think it was from Wyoming. That kid started in the NFL playoffs. That is an amazing story. So when I hear those things, man, it just chokes me up and goes to show you you can do and be whatever you want, but you gotta want it. So I just wanted to give you a little tidbit, you got to work hard.

Santiago Leon
You definitely got to work hard. And of course they finished second in the AFC East. And just like what Victor was saying, I think buffalo is the future. The AFC East if things don’t pan out with the Patriots next season obviously it’s rumored that the Brady he’s on his way out I believe what’s going to happen with Brady? Which we’re going to we’re going to preview we’re gonna recap the other game well actually this recap the Patriots and we’ll talk about Brady then any any last words for Houston does Houston have a good shot? They have good team can they go deep of what you saw

Victor Arocho
next sorry play Kansas

Santiago Leon
will won’t predict this game but how do you see this Houston team?

Victor Arocho
Why didn’t when JJ was back with the Shawn Watson plane? I think it’s gonna be they’re going to play I think it’s gonna be good play. Oh, this is so good. playoffs man. I mean, you got you know, honestly, I didn’t think I was shot. I don’t think I don’t think you know, Kansas City has shown and it sparks win. needed to promote home. This is fantastic. But so is this Sean and it hasn’t been like Kansas City’s dominated this year. So I just think it’s going to be a strong game and now it’s going to be the world to young quarterbacks. Yeah. And then JJ watts makes a big difference. But Kansas City’s got a good defense as well.

Santiago Leon
Yes. Watson had 47 yards passing, and he only ran for 55 yards. Hopkins had 90 yards receiving Josh Allen, he threw for 264 yards. So there was a lot of yardage, which means it’s playoff intensity. That’s why you see so much numbers. So my high numbers but yeah, the game went to overtime. And Houston just came back and won the game. I’m trying to figure out who scored in overtime.

Victor Arocho
Houston Yeah, he said it was a field goal because You score I think, the first round or something if you don’t score a touchdown, you gotta you gotta score here. overtime rules versus way. If you score a touchdown, it’s over. If you score a V score a field goal, the other team has a chance to come down, it has the ball. If you don’t score, the other team has a chance to come down. And if they score a field goal, they win. So you have to score at least the field. Okay.

Santiago Leon
That’s overtime rules. That was the first overtime game. That game delay the New England and Tennessee game, which was the highest rated game this weekend this past weekend. I’m coming into this game Victor. I had a feeling Tennessee was gonna win it.

Unknown
No, I thought the New England was gonna win it. And I’m gonna tell you right now, you know, again, you know, people want to do the right everything’s always on the Brady thing and my son I had a debate one time I told you about defense and Bella. Okay, well I’m sorry. That running back Henry ate them up that was passed on and stuff. It’s terrible because it’s long plays and this and that. But man, when someone’s just running it down your throat as a defense, you’re tired. You’re feeling like someone’s just punching you when you’re down. And that’s defense. Yeah, I’m sorry. Even though when it’s over time, I mean, think about it. You know, meilin didn’t really have anyone he kept it to go into overtime, but I’m sorry, Bella, check your defense sought. That guy was averaging like five yards and carry.

Santiago Leon
Yeah, Derek had 182 yards. How many carries a 34 carries?

Unknown
Okay, 182 and 34 carries. What is that like almost less than it’s almost five point it’s almost 66 yards a carry.

Santiago Leon
I point for advice. That’s pretty good.

Unknown
around the room, but it’s over five. I said five in the beginning, think about it. All you need to do is give them the ball. First is first and second by first thing. Yeah.

Santiago Leon
And of course, you know, like, like was so much running from Derrick Henry that Ryan tannehill didn’t do much to guard you know?

Victor Arocho
just not a good idea about Josh Allen what you were doing in the first half was working. You went away from it, why do you go away from something that’s working? And then and it goes back to you could say whatever you want about Brady and then belcheck your defense got their asses kicked.

Santiago Leon
Let’s go to the Patriots didn’t have much offense. The Patriots. Everyone was saying on Twitter, everywhere.

Victor Arocho
Was went to overtime.

Santiago Leon
Overtime, did it? No. No, it was all and regulation 13 But yeah, I’m like this. This is a whole conversation this past season. Brady lack the weapons ever since gronk. Left, which he left. Last March, Brady it’s been having Tony and Antonio Brown. That was the not the gronk replacement but you know the help

Victor Arocho
you had Antonio Brown, the game would have been different. That would have been different.

Santiago Leon
They ran the ball there was this one play. I

Victor Arocho
mean, drop several passes.

Santiago Leon
There was one play before the halftime where they could have score but they couldn’t like Tennessee. Stop them. Stop them. Um, so obviously, Sydney new wasn’t like the answer. Door set wasn’t the answer. I’m mean they found the way

Victor Arocho
right? So mean you know he needed one more receiver he would have got past this game yeah. Something to death for he needed a power he needed a power running game. But I don’t think that they’re built to have a power of

Santiago Leon
the dolphin. I mean it’s funny like the Patriots were looking weird since that that dolphin game. I feel like they just something happened since then they just couldn’t recover and it spilled over to this game.

Unknown
team that’s used to overcoming adversity and adapting and getting better. So it all every year every week everyone’s like you know doing is going to figure out the offense and we England’s going to figure out the offense. You know when you start going into the game 16 and you still feel uncomfortable. You haven’t figured it out that’s going to wear on you like the

Santiago Leon
season starts after dansgaming and it felt like the Patriots did I mean Yeah, trying to figure out the options they didn’t there was one argument I heard from someone from ESPN maybe that gronk when he decided to retire he decided to late the Patriots could have gotten you know, some more options for receivers and tight ends. So, like, kind of like they could have like push gone cake on you gotta decide if you’re gonna stay like or like or retire or that kind of cost them they’re mad soon

Unknown
as you can. Here’s the problem that I had was sports. People want to call it a sport a game and when they want to and they want to call it a business when they want to. Right so so you know people were bashing a lot, right Andrew Luck. And you now you’re mentioning about Warren koski dude when they want to fire someone or get rid of someone Darian and they just put a ticket on your locker like you’re gone. me so I went in some businesses business so well, you know what, as a player, the players should have the right to treat his his him as his own business and he feels Look, I’m done. I want to leave, you know, yeah, you want to have some courtesy to your teammates and this and that. But sometimes you just, you think you want to keep going and you go to practice, you go to otas you’re pumped up and you realize that my heart’s not in it by I mean, think about it. He’s got a name. He’s played one only nine years in the league.

Santiago Leon
But it is not for long league as well. Um, one other aspect I saw in the game was five minutes before the end of the game. Where were the Titans were a punt the ball, but they kept delaying it.

Victor Arocho
Because I remember that was

Santiago Leon
the height. Probably like the highlight after the game because belcheck did that against the Earlier this

Victor Arocho
year you know the head coaches for the Titans is right.

Santiago Leon
Yeah, he used to play for what he played for. For the Patriots. How many rings Yeah.

Victor Arocho
But he’s actually one of the few coaches that I’ve done well yeah,

Santiago Leon
not not all them like Matt Patricia he’s struggling some other coaches out there as well. So it’s quite interesting how versions of ourselves chain of coaches is a lot better than belgic What is it? Is it because belcheck is kind of tight knit

Victor Arocho
it’s because belcheck and Brady that we’re going to see we’re going to see the real deal deal understand me that you you ready now they have not one without each other. But but for but we know for sure. That Bella check did not win win Cleveland. In fact, he’s up now you’re leaving. Cleveland just sucks anyways, but you know, nothing can do about that, but He didn’t win.

Santiago Leon
Now. You don’t think belcheck can win with crab without Brady?

Victor Arocho
I think he will define win or you

Santiago Leon
can build a chicken craft win a Super Bowl without Tom Brady.

Victor Arocho
No, I don’t think so.

Santiago Leon
I think it’s too late. Like

Victor Arocho
I’m saying the features can win a Super Bowl. I don’t believe bill shall Bill belcheck the winner noticeable. Wow. Anybody commented on that?

Santiago Leon
No, not yet. So those three, those three in that formula have to, you know, work in order for that organization. When are those three tracks

Victor Arocho
not really a factor? He’s just a great owner. So you gotta really just, you know, I wanna I don’t want to say that’s not true. You know, being a great owners a major factor, you know what I mean? So he’s just a great owner. So he, that craft is going to be craft, you understand? Yeah, and crafts got a great relationship with Brady. He probably has a better relationship with brainy than Belichick oh yeah okay cuz you know the looks at him as his kid you know and I don’t know if you know the story. Brady went up to him and told them because the roundy got picked and everything goes this is this is the smartest move you’ll ever make and crash like Brady was like six rounder no

Santiago Leon
yeah six round out of Michigan correct was he went up

Victor Arocho
to craft and told his billionaire This is the greatest movie will ever make. Wow.

Santiago Leon
If handout became seven championships. So of course

Victor Arocho
no those six

Santiago Leon
six championships sorry. Good number, you know. Okay, so what happened was they delayed the game. The Patriots were down by one point it was 13 to 14. The ball management of patriots were struggling for office and couldn’t find a way to get down the field and score a touchdown. At the end, I think the Patriots had 24 seconds or something like that.

Victor Arocho
That was phenomenal. Yeah, that dude killed Oh,

Santiago Leon
yeah, that punt. Would you lend around like the one yard line to your

Victor Arocho
gonna start on the one yard line?

Santiago Leon
Yeah. And of course, I think the first or second play of the Dr. Tom Brady threw an interception and touchdown for the Titans seal, seal.

Victor Arocho
Seal it because what I would have done would have been is to take a safety. No, he couldn’t have done that because then they would have to kick the ball out. It wasn’t really that bad at all. Because Give me the ball back on the 20. They had a kickoff. You understand? Yeah, he still had that shot. So was it As bad Think about it, what was the final score?

Santiago Leon
2222 1320 to

Victor Arocho
30 right right. Now could have been 2013 Yes. 2013 I have it right here my screen was it wasn’t 1313 was it?

Santiago Leon
No, it was 1314

Victor Arocho
there was 13 to 14

Santiago Leon
I guess the Titans didn’t want to score a they didn’t want to score Extra Point against

Victor Arocho
I guess no The game was

Santiago Leon
over so they need to score point.

Victor Arocho
Something something’s wrong and it was always it. What was the score when they got the ball in the one yard line?

Santiago Leon
was 13 to 14.

Victor Arocho
Tennessee. Right. So they all know Tennessee went through two and missed it. That’s what happened. They did. Okay. So my point being is by giving up the ball that fast Brian gets you off of the one yard line. You get a ball back at the 2020. You know, 1820 You understand? And now you got a chance except for you now have to score a touchdown to win. So even though that that interception did not seal the game

Santiago Leon
well, it was like one like one second left, and it was it was

Victor Arocho
26 seconds after the test.

Santiago Leon
And I guess they didn’t know it was over. I don’t remember exactly, but

Unknown
there was a duty is 26 seconds left, and then they had a kickoff and that’s when they couldn’t move the ball.

Victor Arocho
I think

Santiago Leon
well, I don’t have to come back home and let me do some search near. Either way. The title is one. I think verbal For sure I’ll Coach belcheck and it proves the point that Bellatrix playoff record is horrible when he does not have a bye week and they could have beat the dolphins could have had a bye week. It was that easy but dolphins win typically the lead the Miami Dolphins beat the Patriots in December but we didn’t expect that to happen in New England. So is is the Patriot air over Victor or you still need to see some things to move around first

Victor Arocho
depends on how you define their again you know like if you’re saying is that are they gonna dominate the AFC East? I don’t think that era is over. Unless buffalo can unseat them and I think as a champion you’re going to be unsee that but I think buffalo has a chance on see them. I don’t have confidence in the dolphins. I don’t have confidence in the Jets.

Santiago Leon
Yeah, he understand that like next year. I think the Patriots are good enough to contend for the AFC East. Here’s the thing. I mean, AFC Yeah, yeah, the AFC East. here’s here’s the thing with Brady Brady has caught on he’s a free agent of patriots cannot offer him a franchise. So if he does come back, he’ll be getting paid less. There is rumors that he might be going to the Chargers because Wait a sec,

Victor Arocho
wait a sec game. Go Justin go called Justin. Justin and Kylo whoever is the team I said will be the best team he should go to

Santiago Leon
you said the chargers. You guessing I don’t know. I gotta.

Victor Arocho
You gotta write this stuff down and you’re running this stuff. I told you remember I said What’s his name? Philips it’s got 50,000 yards. Remember I said there you go Brady that’s a good fit for Brady it’s in Phillips can get 50,000 yards Brady’s gonna line it up there in a span. It’s on the west coast, right in he wants but it’s not like it’s a bad team. That’s the team that would fit Brady the best. And I said that three to four weeks ago started Remember that? started to remember that? Right? Because I was only on the fact that Phillips is for over 50,000 yards. But go ahead and Brady throw this year without receivers. I’m a 4000 yards Yeah, so pretty good.

Santiago Leon
That’s still pretty good.

Victor Arocho
He goes to he goes to the Chicago chargers. That’d be perfect. He’s an LA kid. He wants to do the LeBron.

Santiago Leon
He was born San Francisco.

Victor Arocho
I mean, he’s in California, right? Yeah. And of

Santiago Leon
course he wants to do the whole abroad thing. Get out there, get some, you know, movie deals, get some entertainment deals, and see what he can cook for his for his next phase of his career. Which I don’t expect him to win a Super Bowl with the chargers. I think that’s not his objective, but if it happens, good for him. The charges are made into the playoffs with rivers fruit now can Brady win the Super Bowl without belcheck and correct?

Victor Arocho
Yeah, I mean, you know, football is a sport that Brady and Belichick alone don’t win. Right. I mean, you need your right pieces around, but I just think that I think if if I believe that if Brady goes to the Chargers, I think he will. I think he will go farther. Then Bella shared will in the playoffs.

Santiago Leon
I can see I can see that I mean, obviously the backup right now for Brady is Jared stedham Yeah, he got drafted this past year. Young quarterback he was an okay quarterback wasn’t stellar in college but he’s you know, he’s mediocre which is, you know, very debatable. It depends who you ask. Don’t know if they could kick him in and you know become a playoff Super Bowl winning quarterback right away doubted. Belichick is 67 years old. Brady’s 4142 he says he’s he’s always want to retire at 45 and he says he doesn’t want to retire but I mean, there could be scenario where he’s a free agent, and no one signs. I’m just dead

Victor Arocho
is never gonna happen. I don’t think so. Okay, you think Gary? G. Okay, write this down now. So we don’t talk Three weeks later until we forgot.

Santiago Leon
All right. Well, let’s go into New Orleans ready.

Victor Arocho
First of all, is this answer that question Brady brings in fans K Brady can produce Brady little throw 4000 plus yards with no receivers do they will be stupid for someone not to sign them and he’s not a problem you know it’s just not gonna it’s impossible for someone to take on I just think that he’s gonna go to the right fit and I just tell you if they mentioned the charges which I said several weeks ago my have a strong feeling that he’ll be with the charge you

Santiago Leon
think that you let go forever so you think like he’ll be around or something

Victor Arocho
wasn’t even started now. I did not know that. He got replaced.

Santiago Leon
There you go. There you have it. Victor is our NFL correspondent you know this type of stuff. Anyways, ready? Ready to go to the Big Easy. Okay, things. The Vikings saw a 10 point quarters lead slip away, only to take the opening possession of overtime and march down the field for the winning touchdown and giving them a 26 20 upset victory over the saints this game was all Vikings. Drew Brees choked he did not look like he was confident the saints were using their like their backup quarterback taysom Hill it was

Victor Arocho
why did they and he did okay but why wouldn’t they bring in Bridgewater is he heard some good question. Well, that’s a good question. I’m not saying I’m not saying that to bring in him she should have brought in to replace them. But why would they bring that other guy for one or two plays and not Bridgewater which, which

Santiago Leon
makes sense with taste of hell he like he was throwing the ball he was receiving he was like everything tied in receiver to like quarterback.

Victor Arocho
right but i and I’m okay with that and he didn’t he did pretty good. But Bridgewater took him there without breeze. I’m not saying to replace them. My only question was weird is like, okay, you gotta bring it back. What else as a quarterback just for a couple plays?

Santiago Leon
Why would it have been Bridgewater? That’s a good question obviously Bridgewater is known to be nothing injury probably had a bad knee injury couple years ago,

Victor Arocho
maybe not to be hurt.

Santiago Leon
I mean, he could have not done what this guy held in. But, you know,

Victor Arocho
you don’t know that or or the other fulfill thought process could have been, you know, we’re waiting for this guy for a couple of plays. Why risk injuring Bridgewater? When are we going to have the value to trade him? Yeah, right. They’re going to get something for him.

Santiago Leon
Taking Scott off to a rough start for the Vikings after they elected to receive the opening kickoff. On the third play from scrimmage. Kirk Cousins connected with Adam Thielen on the short pass but he was hit by vonabell and fumbled it away with the saints are covering in Minnesota territory. The Saints were only able to turn over into turn the turnover into a field goal as well. Let’s connected with 29 yards out together the home team and early three zero lead. At the overtime, it was a basketball throw from Kirk Cousins which which had a good game either to, to feeling. Was that play offensive?

Victor Arocho
Yes.

Santiago Leon
pass interference.

Victor Arocho
Yes. Why? His arms fully extended? Yeah. And then defensive backs head went back. I mean, you can’t you can’t you can’t I was a defensive back. You can’t ask for anything better than that. Right. The only thing that I would have said that could have been less challenging is in the defensive back turned his head. That’s the only time defensive back shouldn’t have turned his head is once you turn your head, you’re bold receivers going for the ball. But this guy who’s already a big guy, bigger than defensive back, think about it. had a whole army extension which then put the defensive backs head back. So think about boxing, right you know boxing, boxing, boxing is about arm’s length reach right? I guarantee Zealand has a bigger reach than than defensive back so you’re able to push him extend your arm fully out. I just think they blew this the the LPI this year and the ruling I just think they did a lousy job number one and number two everyone’s questioning whether was really looked at because they responded way too fast. And every touchdown supposed to be reviewed.

Santiago Leon
Yeah. Actually caught by Kyle Rudolph and I feel it. Right NFL later after the game they reviewed it with different angles. And they said that it was not an RPI a offensive pass interference based on what I good question and, and like the ref and Analysts on Fox was saying that was was which I

Victor Arocho
thought it was two reasons I said

Santiago Leon
weird. I’m not sure what’s going on. I mean, it felt like look, we could say it’s it’s a pass interference, but the game’s over. We’re embarrassed maybe like the film bears if they say that it was I don’t know. I mean,

Victor Arocho
you don’t know what I just you know insights this you know, this team get hit with this and other words get hit two years in a row with the same type of goal. It’s not like they got screwed twice in different scenarios. They got screwed twice on.

Santiago Leon
One player that really stood out was dalvin cook he carried the ball for 28 times for 94 yards and a pair of scores. Another guy just like Derrick Henry ran the ball ran the ball. Kirk Cousins was not too visible. But dalvin cook would you think about his performance.

Unknown
Well, I mean, it wasn’t a Henry Henry was a dominant leader. Well, I think the Minnesota play. I think Minnesota played a good game, you know, I think, but I also think that the same played a good game, and I think that that the game should you know, they still could have won because it wasn’t a fourth down. Right, but they shouldn’t play shooters taking place.

Santiago Leon
Yeah. And I was pointing with the saints because I’ve been seeing this for the past couple years. They just, I can’t say choke, but they just don’t perform well in the playoffs if something happens, one play, and things like that. But these you know, just as

Unknown
these are major players is when the, you know, saying that, you know, don’t let the rest of the game and the rest hands is true.

Santiago Leon
To play the role and because of the saints, right? That’s right. Yeah, first year last year, and that took place last year. That will not

Victor Arocho
been That’s what I’m saying. They got screwed on this same type of path. D quite weird, isn’t it? I’m not conspiracists bar you. Well, maybe you know, if you think about it could be it could be the rest union that are saying, Hey, you know, now you’re pushing it too far people complaining about the delay of the game. But I’m telling you every year now analysts that I heard and I believe that that that the interpretation to what is offensive pass interference. I think they did a lousy job this year. Yeah, not really in every touchdown needs to be reviewed. I don’t understand. During the game, when there’s a touchdown that the touchdown is reviewed, is took lot takes longer than it took for them to review that play. We agree. We agree.

Santiago Leon
The Saints got screwed again. So that’s just that’s too simple. It is.

Victor Arocho
Then you move on. Move on.

Santiago Leon
Saints cannot play close games anymore. They got a guy went by our margin to avoid these type of situations. Let’s go on to Philadelphia. Are you ready? Yeah. After David Clowney knocked out Carson Wentz Russell Wilson in the Seattle Seahawks knocked off the Philadelphia Eagles. Wilson through a 53 yard touchdown pass to DK Metcalf remember the name marshawn Lynch? Yes, you’ve heard of him. beastmode had a rushing score and the Seahawks beat the Eagles 79 in the wall call round of the NFC playoffs on Sunday night. dk Metcalf, what do you guys say about it?

Victor Arocho
Actually, I am super happy for him because he was that monster coming out of college. Right? He said

Unknown
he came at Ole Miss. And he was massive. So you didn’t really you know, he also wasn’t someone that everyone was talking about. Until the combine. It was until he was we seen at the combine is when he blew up when they took a A picture of how big he was and how large he jumped. And I was just happy for the kid. You know what I mean? I mean, you know, he’s a he’s a true receiver. That is a monster. Like he can be tied in. So I’m really happy. I’m really happy for him and then, you know, I don’t know what’s up with Carson Wentz, man. He’s just, you know,

Victor Arocho
they know he’s accident prone Dude, you know? He still would have been knocked out of the game.

Santiago Leon
Like he doesn’t play K I mean, yes, you gotta be risky, but you gotta play careful at the same time. Yeah, he

Victor Arocho
should have slid. He didn’t slide. I mean, you don’t slide in. You’ve been hurt for two years, three years in a row.

Santiago Leon
But would have been would have been much of a difference if you play all game. Think so. We’ll see what is still one

Victor Arocho
We don’t know we’ll never know. We don’t know you know do we just don’t know right because I’m a big Russell Wilson fan. I just think that Carson Wentz has been on fire.

Santiago Leon
Who else will like who’s also back as we were talking about for marshawn Lynch beastmode this guy was played since

Victor Arocho
430 something days. Can you believe it and he was in shape still.

Santiago Leon
This guy was

Victor Arocho
saved he was still pushing the pile. I know. For them that I’d want them to win the Super Bowl is because of marshawn Lynch. We haven’t until his grandkids and I was out for four days came and this is football do this a basketball is in Jordan is this is football, you know for grown Cassie to come back that would be hard. Running back is hard to come back

Santiago Leon
tight. Tight is pretty. I mean it could come back next season with no problem just like Jason Witten came back

Victor Arocho
fine. Yeah, no Jason Witten came back in a year though.

Santiago Leon
Well Sanford has been out for a year so far. So making his first playoff okay when when down Nick full wasn’t around Josh McCown. 40 year old Josh McCown became the oldest quarterback to make his play off the boot. But he couldn’t lead the Eagles nine eight into the end zone. The Seahawks lost three other final four games including a 2621 defeat at home against the niners and week 17 that cost them the NFC West title. But they traveled to Philadelphia for the second time in six weeks and became the 13th to win on the road this weekend and proven to eight in one away from the home season. Wilson threw for 325 yards had a fantastic game and led the team with 45 yards rushing. That last play was smart. They were in the back the two yard line probably. And they threw the Metcalf just to seal the first down and the game.

Victor Arocho
Right.

Santiago Leon
Zach Kurtz at 30 yards and yeah Seattle wins again they’re going to Green Bay and this is this the segment of the show where we will we will predict what’s going to happen Seahawks at the Packers what’s gonna happen

Victor Arocho
you know, if they’re a packer I just think it’s hard to win at Lambeau man unless you’re giants. The Giants,

Santiago Leon
who are they get they did. Over only you remember this stuff

Victor Arocho
I’m yeah I’m gonna go with the Packers I think Aaron Rodgers still playing lights out and you’re playing you know you’re going to dome team playing in Lambeau Field in January is cold, which

Santiago Leon
we’ll talk about the giants in a few minutes because there’s some news today about that. We’ll talk about that in a few minutes what Victor thinks about it. Vikings at the niners minders. Why do you say that you think the niners are the real deal?

Victor Arocho
Do the real deal, man they got a green Bowser fan. I’m a big fan. I’m Joey Moser fan. They’re, you know, they’re, they’re 9544 St. Thomas Aquinas man is I’m going to root for those kids all the time. So number one, and number two is distinct in their real deal. I don’t think that the basic moves to this game in this game.

Santiago Leon
I do think grace Hello, which I think that was the backup quarterback that I don’t know what happened with that trade. I mean her belcheck want to grapple the stay her crap just traded him for a good business deal. But that was the player the backup Tom Brady and Brady’s I mean, I don’t want to say it but Brady’s ego came in the way to save the organization should have kept Garoppolo Hey, Brady, we love you. But you know, hey, what’s the plan? What’s the deal with wanted to do right?

Victor Arocho
Right and now he wants to be a starter and you know it’s not easy to sit back and feel that you did well in between an income you know, you don’t know all the pieces. And look, you know, he’s done well, and people have second guessed that care all year.

Santiago Leon
And he became injured last year with ACL tear. Anyways, another big game Tennessee, a Baltimore I don’t know. I kind of feel telling us he can pull it off. But then again, you got Lamar Jackson playing for Baltimore. You

Victor Arocho
know, not even close. You don’t think so. Baltimore’s The only thing is Henry comes through but outside of that. Baltimore’s defenses they got weapons he got the Sean Sean Jackson

Santiago Leon
name. No no, it’s Lamar Jackson.

Victor Arocho
Jackson Lamar Jackson and I just think that their guns blazing made

Santiago Leon
it Tennessee beats Baltimore. Tennessee will be the dark corners going to Super Bowl.

Victor Arocho
They’re not gonna be

Santiago Leon
as excellent because you’re gonna expert tannehill be a superstar top tier quarterback. That’s not gonna happen. Henry has to do a lot of work and that’s

Victor Arocho
your job there. Oh, by the way, they were some of the other player that played again who was an ex dolphin.

Santiago Leon
Oh.

Victor Arocho
There was another player like stole or somebody. Last year, it was The

Santiago Leon
comments that what’s it called? The Tennessee Titans had to get past against Baltimore that isn’t happening. Yeah, yes. I think we all agree that it could happen. I mean, if

Victor Arocho
Baltimore’s defense is good, offense is good. They’re on a roll in

Santiago Leon
Houston at Kansas City now, I believe Houston. Houston has been in Kansas City in Kansas City before.

Victor Arocho
Really what you do JJ was coming back to Sean. Sean Jackson, right. You know, Sean Watson and I just don’t think that you know, Kansas City always seems to show

Santiago Leon
up So

Victor Arocho
yeah, I mean if they

Santiago Leon
know they want to go to the AFC Championship game, most probably against Baltimore. The Baltimore Ravens,

Victor Arocho
I think Houston’s gonna do about it. That’s the best matchup I want to see. I want to see the the Shawn Watson against Lamar Jackson.

Santiago Leon
They didn’t play ready but like Baltimore pull him out.

Victor Arocho
So right.

Santiago Leon
I think I think he was playing JJ Watt, but I don’t know. 100% JJ Watt. He’s 50%.

Victor Arocho
Really so the guy who got the sack who started to turn around is to 50% shit.

Santiago Leon
Nothing. Kansas City has a lot more weapons offensively than what Houston face last week gets it. A tougher match for for Houston but i think i think Kansas City has has the edge we’ll see what what Kansas City brings them because

Victor Arocho
I don’t know. Remember Kansas City?

Santiago Leon
Yeah. And that’s an interesting matchup. giants news, big surprise, big surprise actually. They hire patriots assistant coach Joe judge in a surprise move. Some people thought it was. Why was it? A coach a coach. Monday hired Jason Garrett, his office coordinator that is rumored to tap and George was a special teams coordinator and wide receiver coach at the Patriots. He has no offensive coordinator experience or defensive coordinator experience but he will be the coach of the New York Giants. Matt rule was was gonna have an interview today. He heard that judge wasn’t going to get the job. With the giants and Matt rule took the job with the Panthers. So it feels like this is news to you right now.

Unknown
We’ll know. Yeah. That coaches news to me right now. Yeah, Garrett wasn’t.

Santiago Leon
Now keep in mind. This is good Joe judge.

Victor Arocho
Someone was worked during the day. Joe judge

Santiago Leon
worked under Bill belcheck. But he also worked under Nick Saban. So he does have championship experience.

Victor Arocho
Wow. So I’m just glad we got rid of Sure. Yeah, Sherman lessa. For want to see here, a year one season one and done. You know, so but I’d like to be honest with you. I’d like to have Jason Garrett as a coordinator.

Santiago Leon
Yeah. Jason Garrett was being interviewed today or is going to be interviewed this week to be the offensive coordinator. Of course, Jason Garrett was fired from the Cowboys this week.

Victor Arocho
justifiably?

Santiago Leon
Yeah, after Mike McCarthy’s new coach with the Cowboys. What you think about oh,

Victor Arocho
well, let’s stay with the Giants First of all, and then we’ll go there. One I think Jason Garrett was going to be would be a great, a great office coordinator for the Giants with where the Giants started rising and with Danny Jones. Okay, I think he can help and build on one. Number two, he knows the NFC East for years. Number three, he would be in great position to take over as a head coach, if necessary the next couple years for the giants. Give us a hand and why so we go Oh, it was just Dell is the mayor of families and totally different ownership than Jerry Jones. In the same jerry jones is Jerry Jones is his own worst enemy. Jerry Jones is pretty much Now we can go to

Unknown
see where I’m sitting Connor Brown. You know him Jason Garrett being a head coach, and I don’t think anyone wanted to move him right as a head coach right away. I don’t think that wasn’t too Don’t be too high of a risk. Right. But but but it’s like Wade Phillips I don’t understand why wait a

Victor Arocho
great defensive coordinator. Yeah, that’s something that what you know, he’s, he is available. he’s ever done a good job as a head coach, but he was great. He’s been a great defensive coach. What’s his name? Is it Rex Ryan? as a head coach, but he’s will be a killer defensive coordinator.

Santiago Leon
is Jerry Jones responsible for the destruction of the Cowboys? Yes. Should they hire? Should they sign? resigned a Dak Prescott for $40 million.

Victor Arocho
Yes. Okay.

Santiago Leon
Mike McCarthy. How do you think he’ll do with the Cowboys?

Victor Arocho
McCarthy’s a great coach man, I think I think he’ll do well, but it’ll be like ourselves in Jones. Jerry Jones, Jimmy Jones. Jimmie Johnson. It’s not going to be long lasting.

Santiago Leon
Yeah, it’s gonna be I mean, Jason Garrett lasted for eight nine seasons as head coach.

Victor Arocho
But right nobody else did Parcells did it. Jimmie Johnson did Jimmy wire

Santiago Leon
Jason Garrett Spoelstra of the

Victor Arocho
bolster runs the game. Riley’s jerry jones is both know you’re crazy. You are crazy, because they’ve had they’ve had nobody for the last three years and he’s made them play. And and to the point that Riley’s told players that’s vultures call I am Molina Riley. That’s not Riley style. gonna stand. The only time Riley did that is with what’s his name? The Was it the Koch brothers, the heavyset brothers with Dallas Mavericks and now with the Orlando Magic Oh,

Santiago Leon
the big candy brothers. These right yeah. So of course, you know the coaches hiring today Matt rule, who was the head coach of the likes of Baylor is now the head coach of Carolina Panthers. So he got his position. All set there. The Browns are the only team that has not hired a head coach yet. They said they’ll be getting a head coach by this Saturday. Yeah, that they haven’t had anyone else. So I haven’t heard some interviews. Josh McDaniels is one of the biggest names being interviewed, of course McDaniels are is believed to be not a good head coach is more of a good offensive coordinator.

Unknown
My dad that that that organization, for sure guy McCarthy, right? They need a strong, strong coach then they need a player’s coach. They need a coach strong coach, you take that under around now the only players coach that I would take will be Tom Wilson. Other than that, you know, they need a strong coach they need they that needs to be taken under control. Think about all the crap that’s been going on between the Odell the quarterbacks, their their defensive players. I mean it just you know what I’m saying? They need someone Someone has to clean up that place.

Santiago Leon
So so far, I’ve hired Ron Rivera cowboys hire Mike McCarthy Panthers Matt rule and today giants hire Joe judge did not see that comment. And the Browns are interviewed has a couple interviews this week. They got Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz, Vikings offensive coach ordinator Kevin Stefanski patriots Josh McDaniels and then there’s a verted interviewed Eric Binney, me Greg Roman and Robert Sally. Eric. Benjamin be no yeah he I think he’s a guy from Florida

Victor Arocho
right the Gators. He be he was from my enemy was fair game. He’s told me that one of the two.

Santiago Leon
Yeah I know he I think he’s from college football so I heard he’s a big big option to take for the browns. Of course I like the guy who did last year like the interim coach, but guess he’s no longer an option, because he’s not been brought up. Oh, yeah, sorry. He’s the offensive coordinator of the Kansas City Chiefs. Totally not college. Okay. So that is what’s going on in the NFL this weekend is the NFL playoffs, divisional playoffs.
