00:00Beyond the quarterbacks, Keith, May and Herbert, which is, I think, close.

00:04Edge goes to Drake May, but it is close.

00:08Who's going to make the biggest impact in this game among non-quarterbacks?

00:11Take May out.

00:12Take Herbert out.

00:13Who's the biggest impact player on Sunday?

00:15I kind of think it might be Milton Williams.

00:17I love Big Milt, best friend of the show.

00:19That helps.

00:20But you saw him come back.

00:22You saw a few games without him, which I think also sort of allowed everybody to realize

00:27is just how important he has been for this team all year.

00:30We talked to Christian Ellis about it on Monday.

00:32He's like, oh, my God, this guy just wrecks the game.

00:34Raving about it.

00:34Yeah, he loves it.

00:35And as he should, especially that position.

00:36If anybody can understand the impact Milton Williams had, it'd be the guys lining up right behind him.

00:41And raving about the leadership and everything else, too, beyond just the on-field.

00:44He's got the playoff chops from last year, going all the way to the Super Bowl,

00:48sacking Patrick Mahomes in the Super Bowl.

00:50And we know the Chargers' offensive line isn't very good.

00:53So Milton Williams could cause absolute havoc.

00:56And he's one of those guys that's perfect because he can help slow down the run game, right?

01:01And you saw Omari and Hampton on the injury report yesterday.

01:03Didn't practice for the Chargers.

01:05Yeah, what is that?

01:05He's an ankle injury, apparently.

01:07But that's got to be maintenance, right?

01:09I mean, I don't know if you want to give a guy maintenance on a Wednesday going into a playoff game,

01:13but that's got to be.

01:14He's been playing.

01:14That's got to be maintenance.

01:15But Keenan Allen was on there for non-injury related.

01:18That's straight up maintenance.

01:19Well, it said so.

01:20Well, it's true.

01:21But, I mean, Hampton broke his ankle or whatever it was earlier this year.

01:24So maybe it's, you know, the after effects and management of the ankle injury.

01:27Both teams had a lot of guys on the injury report yesterday.

01:29But with the Patriots, it was almost entirely illness, whereas the Chargers had all, like, injury designations.

01:35So, I mean, I assume he plays.

01:36I'm just saying throw that in there between Vidal and Hampton.

01:39We talked about them yesterday.

01:40But he can help slow those guys down.

01:42He can make an absolute problem for Justin Herbert and be in his face all day.

01:46So, I would say the guy that you spent a lot of money on in the offseason and has lived

01:50up to it this season, I would fully expect him to be a big part of the game on Sunday.

01:54So, we never discussed this beforehand.

01:57It's always very organic and natural.

01:59I agree.

02:00I mean, Milton Williams, to me, is the pick.
