00:00Who the number one team is sometimes.
00:02All right, here we go.
00:02Reverse AFC power rankings.
00:05Why not on a Tuesday afternoon powered by Empire Electric?
00:08Your residential neighborhood electrician.
00:11Visit EmpireElectricians.com.
00:17Oh, what a moment.
00:2016, Joe, who for you is the worst team in the conference?
00:25I think it is the Miami Dolphins.
00:29The roster is thin.
00:32The quarterback is fine.
00:34Maybe he's thrown 80 passes in the league.
00:36I guess he could be fine.
00:38But I think they probably want to be at the bottom as much as anybody
00:42in addition to the roster looking pretty barren.
00:45I saw a stat on the amount of dead cap they have this year.
00:49It's like something like 100.
00:50I think they have more dead cap this year than they have cap spent
00:53on players on the roster.
00:55So Miami for me.
00:57Miami has been in this slot for some weeks running.
01:01We haven't been doing this every week.
01:04Can you make a more optimistic argument for them than you just did?
01:10I mean, can you?
01:11Willis is maybe good.
01:14Maybe.
01:14And, I mean, the skill position stuff, wide receiver-wise,
01:18they're probably at the bottom of the league.
01:20But they do have A-chan.
01:22And you never know from defense.
01:24I'm not trying to fight back on this.
01:26I think I'll go Miami, too.
01:27But it kind of seems almost unanimous lately with the Dolphins.
01:32You know what they could be?
01:34They could be that season where the Jets were supposed to be, like, winless.
01:39And Todd Bowles had them winning five games and was being talked about like he was a savior.
01:46Was that, like, seven years ago now?
01:48There was a Jets season like that where they were supposed to be the worst team that's ever existed.
01:51And then they won five games.
01:54It was like, oh, they're actually more competitive than we thought.
01:57Maybe that's Miami.
01:58They get some luck in the defense's middle of the pack and they go four and 13 or whatever.
02:04I mean, great plan, right?
02:06What?
02:08Go pick eighth.
02:09Yeah.
02:10Yeah, maybe a while ago.
02:13I mean, I think of Ryan Fitzpatrick being the quarterback the last time the Jets were any good.
02:17And they missed the playoffs losing here in the final game, meaning that they still have not made it since,
02:24I mean, it's longer than the Sabres drought.
02:262010.
02:28I was there.
02:28It was a weirdly exciting game, even though, you know, there was nothing on the line for our side.
02:34Very windy, right?
02:36Very windy.
02:37There's a McKelvin pick at halftime, I think.
02:41I was at Ikea.
02:43Okay.
02:45I didn't pay the closest attention.
02:47Glad the season was ending.
02:49All right, 15.
02:54I want to say Tennessee.
02:57Tennessee has gotten a little bit more credit in these rankings than I think they really do.
03:03I don't love the coaches.
03:05I mean, the quarterback was kind of all over the place.
03:09What did they do?
03:10They added Carnell Tate.
03:11Okay.
03:12I mean, three and 14.
03:17Yeah.
03:18I mean, TyJ Spears did guarantee they'd have a winning record this season.
03:21I don't think.
03:22Wow.
03:22Does that change your mind at all?
03:23You know, I didn't know that, but no.
03:27I mean, I like the weapons enough.
03:32It's Tate, Ridley, and Wondell Robinson.
03:34They paid him, too, right?
03:36What's that, though?
03:38Yeah, it's going to be 90 catches for 700 yards.
03:42I like the Dable hire for Cam Ward.
03:45I guess this comes down to whether you're a Cam Ward guy or not, and I'm guessing by
03:48the sound of your voice, you are not a Cam Ward guy.
03:49Not really.
03:50Or even, I've cooled on Dable, too.
03:52I don't know.
03:53I think he's a little bit out of control.
03:56All right, who do you want?
03:57I would not be on Tennessee here.
03:59I would be on Cleveland here.
04:01Okay.
04:02I think I'm more on Cleveland here.
04:04Cleveland, 15, 14.
04:08My pick is in.
04:09Yeah, you have to be.
04:11That's the rules, right?
04:11Those are the rules, yep.
04:14Hmm.
04:16It would either be them or the Raiders for me here.
04:22And I'll say Titans.
04:25Okay.
04:26Tennessee moves up in the reverse AFC power rankings from last time out.
04:31Two spots.
04:3213.
04:33You're Vegas?
04:34Yeah, I'm Raiders.
04:37Kind of want to be Pittsburgh here.
04:40Ooh.
04:41I will go Vegas.
04:4512.
04:48I'm fine with Pittsburgh at 12.
04:51I don't like anything about it.
04:53I don't like anything about it.
04:56Yeah, no.
04:56I mean.
04:57They find ways to get to the middle, but that doesn't help.
05:01Yeah.
05:02Well, Tomlin's gone now, so does that pixie dust wear off?
05:08I kind of hope so.
05:11Yeah, me too.
05:12I mean, I don't really.
05:13There's nothing.
05:13I'm looking at what they've done this offseason.
05:15There's nothing that really stands out as impressive to me.
05:18Like, is Michael Pittman can even make it through a season anymore?
05:21He's got back problems.
05:22Like, if your biggest move is you acquired a receiver with back problems this offseason,
05:26I don't know.
05:27I've waited my whole life for a terrible Pittsburgh Steelers team.
05:32Let's go.
05:33I mean, there's never been one.
05:35There's never been one in my entire life.
05:37There's never been a Steelers team that was really bad.
05:40There's no Cordell Stewart team in there that, like, won four games or something?
05:44No.
05:45No.
05:45They never win four games.
05:47They always win at least eight.
05:50Like, there's...
05:50Yeah.
05:51The Steelers...
05:52When I was born, the Steelers were famous for being so bad.
05:56But that's...
05:57Then they have the 74 draft, and it's a bunch of Hall of Famers.
06:015-11 in 1988.
06:04The Bills beat them that season.
06:076-10 in 1999.
06:096-10 another time.
06:10Like, that's as bad as it ever gets.
06:13Yeah.
06:13And it's a one-off, right?
06:14Like, they're back immediately after that easily.
06:16Right.
06:17Yeah.
06:18All right.
06:18Pittsburgh at 12-11.
06:21This is a good little run here for the Jets, but doesn't it have to be the Jets next?
06:26Yes.
06:26I was going to say the Jets next.
06:27I was worried we maybe forgot them.
06:29Yes.
06:29Well, I didn't forget them.
06:31I like...
06:32I think they're a fantasy goldmine this year.
06:34They are a horrible defense, but they have, I think, a pass game.
06:39Right?
06:40Don't they?
06:41Like, isn't Gio Smith going to throw for 4,500 yards this season?
06:45I am totally in.
06:46I'm always in on them.
06:48But, yes.
06:49Garrett Wilson, yes.
06:51The tight end rookie, Sadiq, yes.
06:54Omar Cooper.
06:55We'll talk about this on ADP Chasing tonight, or at least we have.
06:58Like, here's a first-round pick wide receiver that goes in the 16th round of fantasy drafts.
07:04Yeah.
07:04The quarterback has thrown for yards in his career.
07:07Maybe the line's better.
07:09And then Brees Hall.
07:10So...
07:11Right.
07:11I'm in on the Jets as well.
07:14And it's all pretty cheap.
07:15Brees Hall, third round.
07:17Wilson, fourth round, I think.
07:20Yeah.
07:20I like Mitchell.
07:21I mean, Mitchell...
07:22And Mitchell.
07:22Mitchell's going to be always the fancy stats guy.
07:24Like, he is the success versus men route percentage.
07:29You know, like, any number on, like, how good are you at getting open, I feel like I always
07:33see Mitchell ranking pretty highly.
07:35Yeah.
07:36Speaking of tonight's show, Davis Maddock loves Mitchell, but will not be on tonight.
07:40So, somebody...
07:41Maybe Joe can just sort of get in the chat and make this case.
07:45Ten.
07:45Yep.
07:47Colts.
07:51Colts.
07:55If it's not the Colts...
08:01Yeah.
08:02Exactly.
08:03It's the Colts.
08:04Yeah, it's the Colts.
08:05I think it is.
08:06Tear break.
08:07Nine.
08:11I will be on...
08:16Houston here.
08:17Interesting.
08:22Yeah, this is tough.
08:24That's why it had to be Indianapolis at ten.
08:27I just think all their problems are going to be the same.
08:29Like, they're not going to be able to block.
08:31Stroud's probably not going to do well with that.
08:35And do they really do much else on offense?
08:38I mean, everyone knows the defense is amazing.
08:39It's just...
08:39I don't know if that offense is going to be able to keep up.
08:42Give me New England.
08:45Wow.
08:49He makes a Super Bowl ad to A.J. Brown.
08:52Ninth.
08:55I don't know what my problem is with New England.
08:57For many years, it was everybody else's problem.
09:00Now it's my problem.
09:01Just not...
09:02I just can't give you my vote.
09:05I'll go Houston here.
09:06Okay?
09:07Eight.
09:08Okay.
09:10I don't know that I'm going to be with you on New England for a minute here.
09:16A.J. Brown plays six games.
09:19Oh, wow.
09:20Oh.
09:22Over.
09:24Is there room on that board over there?
09:26We need to find an eraser that works.
09:28How dare you?
09:29Is there room?
09:29There's an eraser sitting right there.
09:31How dare you?
09:32It doesn't work.
09:33It doesn't work.
09:34We tried.
09:35What do you mean you tried?
09:36We need one of those spray erasers for that thing.
09:39Well, you have the spray, too.
09:41You're telling me if I went over there and sprayed it erased, it wouldn't erase?
09:44I just did this like a week ago.
09:46I'm pretty sure.
09:48Maybe I'm wrong.
09:48I think we need a brand new whiteboard.
09:50You guys have bets up for whether, who will the Bills play in their home opener in the
09:55new stadium?
09:56That's three years ago.
09:58Will Caleb Williams be benched last year?
10:00That's dead.
10:01Will Sean McDermott have a bottom 10 deep?
10:04I mean, you guys, this is your problem.
10:06That one's still alive.
10:07That one's still alive.
10:09It is?
10:11In case he coaches somewhere else?
10:13Yeah, he's going to coach the Jets next year, and then if he's bottom 10, I get paid.
10:16I dragged the Tannehill bet into the 2020s, so fair enough.
10:21No, yeah, you're right.
10:22There needs to be a cleanup on that thing before the season starts.
10:26Eight.
10:26I'm New England.
10:27I'll go to Denver.
10:29Chargers and Denver.
10:31Denver?
10:32Denver.
10:34Enough with Sean Payton.
10:37I mean, they're not that different to me than New England last year.
10:44Like, I don't know that they're just going to repeat what they did again, and if Kansas
10:49City's better, then I think that'll only be harder for them.
10:51I think the division is really strong.
10:54All right, I'll move in here.
10:55Really, for me, it comes down to the quarterback.
10:57Like, he's one of the least efficient quarterbacks ever that's thrown the ball as much as he did
11:00in that season he just had.
11:03You know, you're the guest today, and I will defer to you.
11:06I don't really want to.
11:07I feel like Denver could be number one, but for the time being, we'll put them at number
11:12eight.
11:14It is interesting, though.
11:16I'll talk about it a lot today unless something big happens.
11:18Just, like, sort of how to file the top of the AFC, or in our case, I guess, the bottom.
11:25Seven.
11:26L.A., New England.
11:28Pick one.
11:31I will pick...
11:38Chargers.
11:38I mean, how many years in a row can I believe in them and get let down?
11:42Chargers.
11:42Obviously, you did watch...
11:44You do watch the games.
11:46You did see that playoff game between these two teams.
11:48No, I did.
11:49I mean, but I love McDaniel being there, but not enough to pick them over New England here.
11:55Okay.
11:55Six.
11:59Patriots, Bills, Ravens, Bengals, Jaguars, Broncos, Chiefs.
12:05No, not Broncos, Chiefs.
12:07Look at the Chiefs.
12:09I'd be on the Chiefs here.
12:10Last week, they were...
12:11Last time, they were nine.
12:12Chiefs at six?
12:13Fine.
12:13Five.
12:17I'm still New England.
12:19I'm about with New England here.
12:20What can I say?
12:20Okay.
12:20Yeah, that's fine.
12:22I'm good.
12:22I'm good with New England here.
12:23Four.
12:24Baltimore, Jacksonville, Buffalo, Cincinnati.
12:31I have a bet on Jacksonville, and there's really nothing I feel like I've seen that is
12:37that bad by them this offseason.
12:38But whenever I see one of these sites do either offseason grades or whatever, they're always
12:43at the bottom.
12:44Is that just because of blocking tight end in the second round?
12:48It was the draft value, yeah.
12:50They got hammered for a week afterwards, the draft out.
12:53The value of it was disastrous.
12:56Can Travis Hunter please be allowed to play offense?
13:00Please.
13:00I know.
13:02All right.
13:03Jags at four?
13:04Is that the call?
13:05We're getting to the end of their time, yeah.
13:07Yeah, I'll go Jags.
13:09I'll go Jags.
13:10Knocked out.
13:11We have a penalty coming for Spain, by the way.
13:13Yeah.
13:14Knocked out of the first spot for the first time in maybe a couple months at least, Jacksonville.
13:19Bulldog not here to rally the troops on Jacksonville.
13:23What happened on this play?
13:24Were you watching?
13:25It was like edge of the box, and I think it was just like a kick.
13:30The French defender went for the ball, missed, kicked him maybe in the bottom of the leg.
13:35It didn't look that harsh, but it was in the box, so.
13:39Now it's in the net.
13:40Not what you want against Spain.
13:43No.
13:43Even if you're France, this team gave up only its first goal of the tournament in the last
13:47game, right?
13:48Yep.
13:49They do not get scored on, so.
13:51Now it's interesting.
13:52I mean, it already was.
13:53Spain won.
13:54France nil.
13:5523rd minute.
13:56All right.
13:57Final three.
13:58Who do you have here at three?
14:00Bills, Ravens, Bengals.
14:02What a moment for Cincinnati.
14:04Oh, my God.
14:05I mean, six and 11.
14:07Uh, give him the Bills.
14:13I'll go Cincinnati here.
14:16Wow.
14:18I'm still wowing it that France is down.
14:25Cincinnati has to be.
14:26I can't not pick the Bengals here.
14:29Two.
14:29Joe's on the Bills.
14:32Mm-hmm.
14:33Mm-hmm.
14:33Mm-hmm.
14:36Baltimore.
14:37Another team with a losing record.
14:40Last season.
14:41I'm good with Baltimore here.
14:43Bills won.
14:44Bills won.
14:45Look at you, Joe.
14:46Look what you did.
14:48I got the Bills.
14:49I came to the show, and I got the Bills up to number one, even though I did not vote
14:52for them down the stretch.
14:53Look what you did.
