00:00Now, I don't know that he's going to play. I mean, frankly, since they've traded for him,

00:04we've seen a very limited dose of Marshawn Lattimore. How big of a deal is it considering

00:09the history with he and Mike Evans? If Lattimore is on that field Sunday night,

00:13what kind of impact does that make? Well, if he can play, it's huge. It's absolutely huge

00:18because that battle we've written about, we'll write about it again this week. I mean, it's one

00:22of those guys that they've been nemesis right in this division and the NFC South for years.

00:29Mike's been, I think, thrown out of a game, fined once or twice. I mean,

00:34depending on how the refs call it, they go at it. It's a physical, physical battle.

00:39It's the WWE.

00:40It is. And it's worth just that alone. If you do nothing but isolate on those two guys,

00:45it's worth your admission. And the thing is, I think Mike against New Orleans only had

00:52three games before last week that he had 85 yards receiving, right? So Lattimore and the

01:00Saints defense won a lot of those battles. So if he can play and he's up to his usual standard,

01:06those two guys know each other as well as any corner and receiver in this league.

01:11They've been on the grass. They've been in the dirt together. They've thrown punches.

01:16It is an absolute battle. And so I'm looking for, I hope he can play because I'm looking

01:21forward to that. That's fun. I've been looking at a lot of little clips from

01:25their previous matchups and I was like, damn, I don't know how they finish any game.

01:33You have to have a referee crew who allows both of them to do that thing.

01:37Because if you got some of these other guys, they'll be out of the game in the first damn

01:40mile drive. Hey, Rick, man, we really appreciate you making time for us, dude. This has been a lot

01:44of learned a lot here. Appreciate it, brother. No problem, guys. Good luck. We'll see you.
