All right, all right welcome back episode 31 The Trilateral podcast yo how's it going guys? How's it going? Oh man, uh, week 15 season is coming to an end guys what three weeks left. Yeah, regular season. Home by quick feel like personally I feel like it's only like week eight but a lot of people's fantasy football is coming to an end like behind. I'm still at one week. I have one lead left as it so sad. Three of them in still in walks. There's a lot of fantasy football as to manage it dude. Uh, no f1 to cover not really a whole lot of NCAA to cover other than the baseball. One small tidbit. Um, they did finally confirm uh, Red Bull is parting ways with checko. Wow. So they'll find a placement here soon. Yeah, I don't know what they're going to do. I don't like it's really going to help them. Well, they got to start testing here sometimes so. Yeah. So we shall see there but that's the only thing in f1 that felt was notable. Throughout the application. Um, nothing really to cover in NCAA other than the small bull games. I tell you what we did watch the Western game and they they had a shot at that. I think they kind of messed it up but yeah. Is what it is. Um, but week 15 NFL recap. Starting with the Battle of California. The Rams were in San Francisco. Talk about a kickers dream. What do you say that that was if you would have put $25, I know it touched down with the discord. You would have been what like 25 grand richer. No, 25 bucks would want you five grand if you would have put no touchdown game. You would have thought you would have scored after putting up the point, especially the Rams after putting 40 something points up on the bills the week before but you would have thought that mustard in that game. Yeah. That was very bad. So many. What was it? Cooper Cup didn't have a single catch. Yeah. Cooper got me a goose egg. Hey, he dropped like three passes. I don't think he got a target. No, he got targeted. There was I saw at least two or three tie lives redrop pass. Said it over. It was a. Yeah, I was a game. One of those fans who bought me in the years. Unfortunately. Um, so yeah, boring. Moving on to Sunday, one o'clock, Ravens at the Giants. Snooze fast. We knew that was going to happen. Jets at the Jets. Uh, good for the Jets, dude. Uh, Cowboys and Panthers. Bummer. Commander's in Saints. What a game. One point. How did that finish? I didn't remember how that finished. Which one? Commanders and Saints. Commanders are. Commanders almost blew it. They had a 20 to zip. I'm pretty sure they had a 20 point zero lead. And then they got down to 2019. Uh, Saints had a chance to tie it to go in overtime or go for two to win the game. And they tried going for two. Oh, I see what you're saying. Yeah, Saints had a chance to tie it and go to OT, but they wanted to go for two and win it, which was stupid. I mean, they're on a that, that game right there, that loss sealed up from not making the playoffs pretty much. Saints. Yeah. Oh, yeah. That eliminated the. You know, an R to your lemonade? No, I mean, they could have won out and then had some other teams lose. Oh, you're right. You're right. Yeah. They would only had eight losses in their. Yeah, no, no, now they're at nine losses. They're done though. That's silly. So they should have just gone for the should off the time for OT. I mean, I get it. They have no quarterback because their other quarterback was doing. If he got her or should to enter, well, because they put Radler back in. So I think it was hurt again. Yeah. I think it was. Another backup. Yeah. That was there in the rather was the third string for that game. So he's very card. He played all obviously, so remember, he came out of top. I think he was going to be it. Well, this freshman year, yes, Brinster, rather was. Yeah. He sucked in Oklahoma and then he went to South Carolina for three more years. So. So oh, yeah, you're right. Yeah. And he was in school for six years. We'll COVID year. COVID. He got a next year for COVID. Yeah. Uh, bangles at Tennessee. Bangles still in playoff hunt. Bangles defense sucks, but they're still in the high. Yeah. I've never seen a defense where bangles give up so many points, but also have four interceptions. I don't understand. Both quarterbacks on Tennessee through for two interceptions each. And they still give them what 30 minutes love us and Rudolph both give all two interceptions. Wow. They're a quarterback situation through off. Yeah. They just can't get it right. But man, their Tajay Spears and Tony Paller were looking good. They were running that ball done. Like see how the Cincinnati defense is terrible. Like, do you guys think Buffalo or Lions deep in the past? It's not. He's still put a 37 points to. Yeah, Joe Burrow, but that's the thing. They scored 30 points in like five games where they've lost. So you can't blame Joe. That's Joe Burrow's fifth straight game with three pass and touchdowns. He's playing good. He's playing good, but that defense is terrible. He's just on a shit team. Yeah. Chiefs in the Browns. The homes got a little hurt there. Yeah. Little ankle strain sounds like he's gonna still play through it. So I don't see him like it's anything too major. He's done it dull with him. The past, I guess brown or a next job man. Hope for the season again. That sucks. What happened to next job? Broke his foot. Holy fuck man. He's done so I think. I think they really break his foot. He's I think he's pretty much done. I want to be surprised. He retires after the shoot is because all injuries. That is insane man. All is ACL. He's he's he's just come back. Yeah. Yeah. He just came back like six weeks ago, five weeks ago. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. He's getting to that age two. He's like what, 29 I think. 30 other running back that's get beat up a lot was a JK. JK Dobbins. Yeah. JK Dobbins is only 25 years old and he's torn his ACL twice and his MCL already. 3D. Yeah. MCL wants in ACL twice. So. Yeah. He's only 25 but no. I think I wouldn't be surprised when Nick Chubb calls if anything. He needs to take at least a year off for sure. That's just a lot of injuries man. It is and he's like I said Nick Chubb's almost 30 years old. Like. Yeah. How much time he's spending in like physical training all the time? Yeah. Just healing. Yeah. Very. Uh dolphins at the Texans. Texans beat them. Uh dolphins are rough. Dolphins are pretty close to like out of playoffs. Contest. Yeah. They lose this week which they'll get to it, which they probably, well I don't know, get a good good game but they could lose this week. So. Um then Colts and the Broncos. Tch. Broncos, man. Colts were winning 13 to zip to start the game and then the Broncos are like, oh wait a second. Let's drop 31 points. Yeah. Like what the. I don't know what. Hey Chris said it last week, man. Broncaler hot bro. They are. I said when Annie's doing it with a rookie quarterback. The clips. I'm pretty sure they scored those 13 points in the first quarter and really look at it real quick. I thought they scored those points pretty quick. Yeah. I'm pretty sure it was. They're just their first quarter because first and second quarter. Yeah. Remember the score kept flashing up as I think, wow. Really? The Broncos are gonna lose that one. Yeah. No. No. Then you get after half time. Broncos like, uh hang on. Not a chance. They said hold my beer and then you're gonna destroy them. But uh. Colts are cool to pretty much at the point too or if they did, they're pretty much done so as well. Yeah. Well, they're in that division. Yeah. Patriots at the Cardinals. Cardinals back to looking like an uh sweet team. Decent team, but seven and seven record. Yeah. Yeah. Tyler got hurt for a little bit in the room, but he came back in. Yeah. I know. We got hurt because he didn't get me any fucking fantasy points. So I don't know if he came back. Hey, I might have not came back in actually, but I don't know who their backup is there either. So everybody got me go say you're three points. Yeah. So then moving on to the game of the week, the bills at the Lions. No, it was gonna be a shootout. Glad I was there to watch it. That was crazy. Yeah. That was that was a good one. Good one to witness. Then we got the uh box in LA box put up 40 points on the chart. Another game were charged with leading by like 10 points at one time and then yeah. 40 points. My guy. What the fuck? The same situation as the Cools game. Chargers were leading and then the box just turned it on. 40 points guy. Baker that it looks like they're gonna run they're gonna win that division honestly. I think it's great. Tampa Bay is gonna win that division now. So the Steelers at the Eagles. It was looking okay and then Nasji had his first fumble of the year which caused them the score again and then they kind of just gave up after the TJ getting hurt. We'll take the next the last play sounds like he's gonna be out for at least two weeks. At least a week. Pay us possibly two and then pickins is still not gonna be back this week either. Then we got Packers at Seattle. Honestly this one I was this was a big guy. Such a miss pick for me. I don't know why I had any type of feeling Seattle. We didn't do anything. I saw at Seattle too. So I know Green Bay is uh not good. That division's just looking freaking good besides the Bears. Yeah, though. Three of those teams and wins probably. They're gonna make all three make playoffs. Easy. It's just like the AFC North probably pretty much they're turning into that. So I see Pittsburgh and Baltimore. Since he's not gonna back. Since CDI since he needs some luck but still. Since he's not gonna make it Cleveland's not gonna make it. So you're gonna have Steelers and Pitthurt Baltimore. But we got the Monday night games which boring snoo- I didn't watch any Monday night football being honest with you guys. I just looked at the scores. The Bayer and the Minnesota. Minnesota to care business. That's what I was glad close 12 to 10. We're not 12 to 10. God I can't even fucking read. 12 to 12 to 30. I was gonna say. I thought it was a lot close. I thought it was a lot blown up then that sound but uh then we had the Falcons in Las Vegas. 15 to 9. Sounds like Kirk got hurt and is out for the season or something because I saw Michael Penix is not the starter for the season for the Falcons. Did they just bench Kirk or Kevin and seven, dude? He should be the starter already. I don't know what happened with Kirk. I don't know if he got hurt or not. I didn't hear anything about it. So I just know Penix is not the starter. So that should be the rest. That's an interesting move this far into the game. I don't know. I think the Falcons are pretty much they'd have to win out and have some luck so. They're alive but yeah they'd have to have some luck on their side though but that wrap up week 15 goals are records on that. Oh Chris where'd you go 11 and four? I went 12 and four. 12 and four and you went 11 and five and then I went 10 and six. So what are you, what's your official record now Chris? 150 to 74. The Logan's 160 and 63 and I'm 142 and 82. So it's at 150. So he's taking it. 9 I'm 18 years behind him. Bring me club. Anything could happen. Anything can happen. I'm not gonna have to make some crazy picks probably to even have a chance. So watch out. I guess the ones that could go this week. This week could be interesting but talking about this week we're going to move into this week or wrap. Do you guys have anything else but week 15? Go bump hello. Yeah. Go bump hello. Buffalo is favorite to win this one or second, second favorite to win this one. I think Eagles are favorite now to win it all and then Buffalo's second favorite. Dude it's gonna come down. I swear guys it's gonna come down to depending how these last three weeks go. I need no fucking Steelers. The Steelers have to beat Kansas City. Can you guys shit the fucking bed? Can you play Denver still too? I'm pretty sure you ruin everyone's season. They're gonna play Denver still too. I don't care about Denver. I'm talking about the Steelers. They need Pittsburgh to lose this week thing because if Pittsburgh wins this week we're gonna be benching people because we don't have a chance to win the thing. You still need to do it. It's Christmas day. Beat the fucking chees. I'm just saying I wouldn't be surprised if Steelers bench people though if we win this week. We still open the bench. Anybody bro. We win the division if we win this week. So we can't we can't lose that. I hope we don't have to beat the chees. I'd rather win my division. It's Christmas day. I'm not the fucking coach. I would want I'd keep my people out there but Oh dude. All right scenario though. If you the chees do lose to the Steelers Christmas day Buffalo is gonna be conference. They're gonna be number one seat. Yeah. Buffalo's gonna hard game this week, which means it'll be Kansas City in Buffalo for a change. Don't don't sleep on New England. And you guys would get your ass beat in Buffalo. All right move it on. 16. We're 16 moving on. We got the first Thursday night game. Good Thursday night game. Divisional game. Denver traveling to the Chargers. You guys got. It's gonna be a good one. I think it's gonna be a good game too. Because they're both really give me Denver. Because the Denver wins. They're guaranteed to be in and really the Chargers when they're guaranteed to be in too. Yeah. We'll these teams are most one game for both teams. They're gonna need this. This really should be all the game. Yeah. Probably borderline. Game of the week. I would say yeah, I would say between the yeah, this game is gonna be up there. Yeah, and then there's like maybe one other game or two other games that could be really good. But this stuff they up there for probably one of the best games. I'm going Broncos. It's easy for me. I'm taking L.A. Good for you buddy. You can L.A. at home. I'll stick with the Chargers for now. Two Saturday games this week. One o'clock and four thirty for the one o'clock game. We got Houston at Kansas City. It's tough because I want to take Houston, but also Houston knows they can't win it. But they've clinched their division. So it's another scenario. They're gonna play all their guys the whole game or because they can't. I don't think they can win the AFC now. I don't know if there's a scenario where they start sent people in week three or the lot. They're in no matter what. They're in no matter what. They're in their new one. They're division. So they already have home field advantages and there's no way for them to do. You want to take a break for fucking three weeks into the play. I'm just saying play that they're like say they're they're like I'm not going to say they're going to risk peep injuries. What I'm saying they're not going to run Joe Mixon 20 times in one game. They're not going to risk that and get him hurt. So while Chuck cheats on the other hand are fighting for the first month of ice. As from saying the chiefs on the other hand are going to be going super hard because they know if they win this game they're still going to be leading the AFC. So they both of them could lighten up though and I want to see. So I think this could be a really tough one. I'm still going to take Houston. I'd like to see Houston run this one. So I'm going to take them. A little pick of a heart. Let me take Kansas City. I'll be fine with this loss. It goes the other way but I might stick with chiefs. 430 Saturday game. We got Pittsburgh at Baltimore. It's a must win game for Pittsburgh because of we it's a must win for us. Yeah, it's a must win. But if we win we win the division. So I think they need to go super hard for this game. We beat them once already. I don't care. I don't care. Well, if we were high Smith was out the last time against them. So I'll do it again. Yeah, it's like losing a starting quarterback. So we beat them last year without TJ. So I'm taking Pittsburgh. So it's a must win game. Oh, TJ's. I'm taking Baltimore. Is it taking back? Nope, still taking Pittsburgh. It's a must win game. We don't win this for Pride not going to win our division. I don't know. This is going to be on the... I might go to Ravens on this one. So far, you two are all the same and I have all three different picks. This is going to be an interesting week. All right, start with the one o'clock games on Sunday. We got Giants at Atlanta. Michael Pennix. Michael Pennix first game as a starter. He's has played but he hasn't started a game. I mean, I believe in Michael Pennix, honestly. I think he's not like he's just being a grown to like he's he's had some time in the NFL. Yeah, he's played a little. He's played some stuff. He just know he's doing so. He's not like a group. And I think Atlanta is a better team. Yeah, they're still over there. Who they got starting the video? Tommy DeVito's home, pretty sure. Tim or Tim Boyle, I don't know if DeVito got hurt or not. They both suck. Yeah, they're both bad. Give me a lamer. So the only thing DeVito is just playing for his coaching job at Alba. Yeah, I'm gonna take Atlanta. Yeah, I'm gonna take Atlanta as well. It's a sweep. Yeah. All right, we got Cleveland at Sinci. I think this could be a sneaky game because I think Cleveland has a really good defense. So Joe Burrows got to really play good. And it just depends on if Winston's gonna show up and throw five touchdowns or five picks. Well, I tell you what, I can guarantee this. I can guarantee Sinci's gonna score at least 30 points. I would take that one all day. I think Sinci is a must for Sinci, so... It's a must for Sinci's identity. Cleveland's out, regardless. So... Yeah, so I think it's just playing for now. I'm gonna have to go... I'm gonna go bangles on this one. Yeah, I'll still take bangles. Then we got Detroit, Trilogy Chicago Detroit looking for redemption, I feel like. Especially after losing Dave Montgomery for the year, then they lost another defensive guy, I guess, for the year. So... They can't catch a break. I'm in a draw. But... They lose two. Two guys, well, two more guys in defense. Jeez. Yeah, they just can't catch a break. I think it breaks the defense. Yeah, I think they'll win. But... Yeah. Yeah, he can be the role of S. Michael Erwin. He's a manager. Dave Campbell already said that I saw him on podcast, or there's like some talk show. He said he... They still give up 40 points of game, but they win by one. He's still gonna be smiling, so he doesn't care anymore. He just wants the win, so I get it, and wins a win, so... But I don't know, the way he talks about his defense, I think, is kind of shitty, so... But I think it's safe to say he understands that he doesn't have a defense. Yeah, still. I mean, you got to trust in your other backups, too, but I get it. Yeah, at this point, you're doing it at backups, you have practice spot players. Yeah. But yeah, I think Detroit takes care of it. You got Detroit, Logan? Is there... Then we got Tennessee traveling to Indy. I'm taking Indy, I think there's still the better... It's just pretty much who's a better team. Tennessee doesn't even have a really a quarterback, so... Yeah, I think Tennessee's a... A cool......deformation quarterback, so I want to say Indianapolis. Plus Indianapolis. Cool. Yeah, cool stuff. Yeah, cool stuff. Cool stuff, really hard chance, like a 2 or 3% chance to get in. They need some luck, but... Yeah, the door is... There's a slip. Yeah, they're just slipping. So they're still gonna be going all out. There's a slip. Better coach. Tennessee did... Tennessee confirmed Rudolph's gonna start... Yeah, so... Yeah, he... That even confirms him taking... Is that because it's close to Christmas time? Yeah, even. I'm a little cold, so... Oh, thank you. You got one of the great... Yeah, yeah, yeah. I said Indianapolis, bro. Okay. All right, we got the Rams......traveling to the Jets. Um, Rams. Yeah, it's... Yeah, it's... It's a must win for the Rams, if they want to keep the lead in their division. The Jets are just playing spoilers of this point because they're eliminated. The Rogers are just gonna be perked up before the game, so......you're just gonna be slinging it. They looked good last week though. Yeah, well... With him and Devonte looked good. They looked like the Molbe-Sulf last week. They did... Where they were playing Jacksonville, though. We gotta remember that. They were? Wasn't it Jacksonville they were playing? Oh, yeah, you're right. So... Yeah. But Devonte and him did look good. Devonte had what two touchdowns, and they were like over 100-70 yards. Take good Grantsault. So, yeah. But I'm actually gonna take the Jets for an upset, and this one is the Rams. Rams, not being on the score. Tuddy against San Francisco. I think the Jets have still really good defense, so I think maybe Rogers and Devonte... We'll see how they do it. Maybe they'll have some... Back-to-back week luck, so... But I'm gonna take the Jets. I'm gonna go Rams. I am gonna go Rams as well. All righty. Next game, which I think this could possibly be game of the week. We've got Philly traveling to Washington. This could be a good game. Washington, like I said, the Washington started out super hot against Saints, but then let them come back. But a backup, a third-screen quarterback, come back on you. That is exactly... Yeah, I'm taking Philly a lot. Taking the birds. The Philly went off last week, showing that their passing aim was really good too. Finally, so, yeah, I think Philly is a better team. Dillon heard said it. That's all... That's what y'all wanted to see, huh? You did. What do you got, Chris? You're gonna take your Washington commanders? Yeah, I think I will. The writer died, dude. The writer died, man. This is backup teams. This is the other team. All righty. They played Buffalo. They probably take Washington. If it's those two in the Super Bowl, man, he's gonna have a hard time picking up. You're gonna be watching all day. I know. He'll put a lot of money on watching, so at least he'll make money, but he'll be happy at Buffalo wins, though. Yeah, it's a good outcome, either way, dude. But, all righty. The next game, we got Arizona. Last one o'clock game, Arizona, traveling to Carolina. I'm taking Arizona. Arizona still has something to play for. Even if Kyler doesn't even try to know if he is or not, I think he still lives, but... And I suppose to play? Well, he got hurt. I don't know what happened by the injury last week, so I think he's still supposed to play, but I'm not known. Even if he doesn't play, I'm still taking Arizona. Yeah, they got 100 yards on him, so. Yeah, so here's on as well. Here's on, huh? Yeah. All right, four o'clock games. We got Minnesota, traveling to Seattle. It's been okay game, but I think Minnesota wants that division, and they know this is a chance, so Seattle does too, by the way, this is the better team. I think Seattle, pretty bad against the Red-Ear. I'm gonna check Minnesota. We will also check Minnesota. Yeah, me too. All righty, next game, we got New England, traveling into Buffalo. You know, this is a type of time where upsets happen all the time when there's no name games sometimes, so. Yeah, but very careful. Buffalo is wearing the all reds. So yeah, they should do good. Buffalo just can't get... I don't know if you can. One of those games where we're New England decided to run the ball. 99% of the time and throw the ball once, so one of those type of games again. So. Yeah, thank you. I think we got it. And I'm really worried about this one. I'll take Buffalo. Buffalo. All righty, it's a sweep. All right, we got Jacksonville, traveling to Vegas. This is a fucking toilet bowl. Definitely not going to watch, but I'll take Vegas, I guess. All right, we'll take Jacksonville. I'm going to take J.A. All righty, we got another good game to end up at the four o'clock. We got San Fran going to Miami. Both teams need to win. Both teams suck. Both teams are not playing good. Both teams coming off a lot. I'm going to take San Fran. I think they're overall... I think they're defense, hopefully, should... I think they'll shut down Miami. Give me... I'm gonna go do it, offense. It's gonna be my big. I'll take the Dolphins, I guess. That's fine. You guys keep picking off the teams. It's one way I come back. All righty, Sunday night. We got Tampa Bay, Rowlands, Jerry Jones, Shit Hole teams, foam. Dallas sucks. Yeah, Tampa Bay. Yeah, Tampa Bay. That's not... Tampa Bay all the way. That's not hard at all. And Monday night, the hardest game of the week to pick. Rowlands sucks. Rowlands for screen bay. I'm taking green bay. Yeah. Green bay by... 23 and a half. That's gonna... Green Bay can put 30 points up on this game for sure. That's it for sure. All right, lock it in. So, New Orleans, my naive score, a field goal of this game. So... Yeah, possible. But some good games, some shit games this week. So... But definitely looking forward to it. Yeah, I think there's tomorrow night... Yeah, tomorrow night might be a game of the week with Denver and Charter. That's gonna be a really good one. That one or Philly in Washington will be, I think, the top two games. Yes. It's gonna be a good one. So, the Philly lost in the big, big game. And then I think... I still think you know, the rivalry in the divisional winter game. I think Pittsburgh and Baltimore on Saturday after it will be good too. I really hope Pittsburgh can still pull it out without... their best offense weapon and their best defense weapon out. We will see. The only thing I also got is I got for this weekend is going Notre Dame on Friday. Kick in these ass. So... It's gonna be a huge game. I'm looking forward to that. You got football, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. NFL, all NFL, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Thursday, Sunday, Sunday, Monday, then, college, Friday. So, will they have NFL in the same time as the ball on the college football playoffs as well? It's kind of wild. Yeah, that does seem a little... It's crazy. And I'm surprised they're actually having Saturday NFL games this week with the college football playoffs. Why are you worried about not being able to watch both of them at the same time? I'm watching Pittsburgh, no matter what. I'm not watching college football in Notre Dame plays on Friday. Yeah, I feel like you're living back in like early 2000. You're not going to be able to do YouTube TV with NFL and college... What? Yeah, you are, bro. You can scream one side college, one side... You really think they wouldn't bring that shit? I don't think they'll do... I think you'll be only NFL or only college. No. No. What time are those games going Saturday? And football is one o'clock and 45 for NFL. No, it's nice. Yeah, no. No, one o'clock and 425. The SMU Pans at noon. And Clemson Texas is at 4. Yeah, so they're going to be on the same exact time. Perfect, dude. Yeah. And more football is better. What you crying about, Hunter? Because you're not going to be able to put two college to two and a half on the same TV. You're going to turn that TV on. I'll bet you. Yeah, two there, two there. All right, whatever. Any other news? I'll take my lens. Hunter as a no. I was Michigan doing the playoff, so... Michigan's about to beat out a man with a bowl game, baby. Will tie the... Will tie the...[laughs] Will he's going to be pissed? Will he's going to be pissed? No tie, Will he? No give a piss about nothing but the tie. Yeah, we're ready. Go blue. All right. Episode 31. Rapids. That's cool. Later. See ya.
