00:00Did you have any takeaway from what was a big scoring day,

00:03at least what felt like a big scoring day, Joe?

00:06Or, you know, we had a ton of points scored in the Berlin game

00:09at the end of it, right, between Atlanta and Indianapolis.

00:11A bunch of that was done through the offensive productivity

00:14of Daniel Jones and Jonathan Taylor.

00:17They put up numbers.

00:18When you look at the Jets, they get the punt return.

00:20I mean, Justin Fields had one pass to Bree Saul for 42 yards.

00:26And, I mean, that was a pathetic stat line, right?

00:29You look at the Arizona game, not one but two fumble returns

00:33by Demarcus Lawrence.

00:34I didn't think it was possible that Jacoby Brissett would get smashed

00:39not once but twice and feel the pressure, man.

00:42You know, step up in the pocket, do something.

00:45The game plan for some of these teams that lost yesterday

00:49was absolutely pathetic.

00:52I mean, I know you love Detroit, but if you're Washington,

00:55you know you're undermanned.

00:57You know that you can't get into a shootout.

01:00You just can't.

01:02You didn't get into a shootout with Pat Mahomes.

01:04You're not going to do it with this team in Detroit.

01:07And their inability to run the football consistently.

01:11Chris Rodriguez comes out in the first half.

01:14He has basically averaged five yards a carry and a touchdown.

01:17They never go back to the rushing attack.

01:19Yeah.

01:19I mean, how do you neutralize an explosive offense

01:23when your defense stinks?

01:25You run the football.

01:26I mean, I just don't understand all these gurus.

01:30Tell me what we're missing here.

01:32I think, you know, again, what stands out, of course,

01:34is that four o'clock win.

01:36I mean, Detroit just smashed them.

01:37But the 49ers, too, when I broke the game down,

01:40what did I tell you?

01:41Matt Jones and that team can't get into a shootout with the Rams, right?

01:45Where was the rushing attack with McCaffrey, with Bryan Robinson?

01:49I want to ask you a question.

01:50Fall behind 21-0.

01:52I want to ask you a question, right?

01:53You look at the way the markets are moving, right?

01:55There's a lot of belief between what Seattle is doing

01:59and what L.A. is doing.

02:00They are actually playing one another next week.

02:03Yeah.

02:05Who were you more impressed by, L.A. or Seattle,

02:08in what was, I mean, still, at least by final score,

02:10dominant victory?

02:12For me.

02:13You could say you weren't that impressed if that was.

02:15No.

02:16Because your face is kind of telling me that.

02:17No, I mean, I'm not fully impressed with both.

02:21Okay.

02:21But if you're asking me in a playoff environment,

02:25which team do I feel now is built better?

02:30I think it's Seattle.

02:33Okay.

02:33Even though it's Darnold.

02:35Because that defense, I think, to me, is flying to the football.

02:40The front seven, they're very difficult to run on.

02:43The back end forces turnovers.

02:45They get after quarterback pressures.

02:47And what's the one thing they have?

02:49A two-headed beast with Zach Charbonnet and Kenneth Walker

02:53that in a playoff environment, they can ground and pound.

02:56As opposed to, yeah, I know Kyron and Blake are there,

02:59but it's more of a finesse type of offense, I feel.

03:03I just feel like, you know, Stafford, I still, I know he's putting up MVP type

03:08of numbers, best season potentially over the last five or six years.

03:12But you saw Devontae Adams go down.

03:14He tweaked his back just juking yesterday.

03:17I mean, I still believe I've been more impressed with Seattle

03:21and how opportunistic they have been.

03:24And plus, they're a battle-tested road team.

03:26They have now a win streak on the road where they know how to go into tough environments

03:31and pull out a W.

03:32And I'm not taking away from the Rams win.

03:34I just think that that, again, was more that San Francisco so beat up

03:41that that game plan that they went in with the other day just,

03:45it was the wrong game plan.

03:47And that's what allowed L.A. to build the lead.

03:49So, for me, I think that Seattle having, I think it's like three of the five

03:57biggest scoring first halves all year long, I think there's something to that.

04:03I thought the defense would be very good coming into the season.

04:06But from that end of it, they've absolutely proven that that defense is real.

04:09But I think they have the argument not to take it away.

04:12I think they could be the best unit.

04:14I agree with you.

04:14I mean, and I'm talking just the eye test.

04:17I thought it was Philly to start the year,

04:20but obviously we haven't seen that just yet.

04:22Defensively.

04:23But again, there's still the second half of the season, you know.

04:26And I believe in Fangio, big picture.

04:29But Seattle, to me, is like, wow, the eye test.

04:31This is like the Ravens with Ray Lewis back in the day.
