00:00Big game coming up this weekend,

00:01and it could be bigger if Jaden Danes is playing.

00:04It's still gonna be a huge game whether he plays or not.

00:06I think the ultimate thing for this team,

00:08and I predict this,

00:09they are going to come out and try to establish the run.

00:12If it's something that we do well,

00:14and they don't do well against,

00:16you have to make sure you force your will on them.

00:19I believe that Cliff Kingsbury and his offense

00:21is gonna try to do that.

00:22And yes, it may be Jaden, maybe Marcus.

00:26I think the most important person

00:28is gonna be the five guys up front, persons, people,

00:32gonna be the five guys up front and the running backs.

00:35And that's led by my guy, Brian Robinson Jr.

00:39I think if B-Rod get to the game

00:40and have the game that he's capable of having,

00:42that's gonna cause some problem,

00:43which then enables the quarterbacks

00:45to do whatever they want.

00:46But we're taking your phone calls

00:48and getting your predictions.

00:49After I get the two guys in the

00:54fishbowl opinion,

00:56who's gonna win the game?

00:57What's your predictions?

00:59I'm gonna start out,

01:00but Jeff already grabbed this thing,

01:01so I'm gonna go with Jeff first, Lanfield.

01:02I'm gonna save the best for last in there.

01:04Jeff, go ahead.

01:06I thought you were saving the best for last.

01:07That's why I'm going with Lanfield.

01:08Oh, okay, okay, okay.

01:09All right.

01:10I got the commanders pulling this game out.

01:14I think it won't be,

01:16I don't think it will be a blowout

01:18because if Jaden plays,

01:23we beat them by a touchdown or more.

01:26Marcus plays, we beat them by a field goal

01:31to maybe six points.

01:33So in other words, you're saying my man,

01:35oh, Austin.

01:37Look.

01:38Austin Cybert will be the guy.

01:40Yeah, I mean, it's just,

01:43all right, we seen Mariota against the Panthers last week.

01:47It was the Panthers.

01:48You know? Yeah.

01:49Bears got a much better defense.

01:51There was some plays that happened last week

01:54where the Panthers could have gotten to Mariota

01:56and I was like, oh, and it was scary.

01:57And it wasn't like Mariota was deadly with the ball.

02:01Like some of those passes, I was like,

02:03oh, like we about to get our receivers killed.

02:06But I think it's close game.

02:08Like I said, Mariota plays, close game.

02:11Washington grinds it out.

02:13All right.

02:14Jaden plays one to two touchdowns.

02:17All right, Landy.

02:21I think they can win.

02:22Um, Mariota convinced me.

02:26If it's Jaden playing, I think they'll just be,

02:29you know, the league's high scoring offense.

02:31Like they've been so far this year when he plays,

02:33they'll just dominate.

02:34And Mariota played well enough for me last week

02:40that I believe in him as well.

02:42I think that's, I think they can pull it off with him.

02:45I've watched a couple of Bears games.

02:46Admittedly, it was a little bit earlier in the season

02:49and Caleb Williams just kind of looked,

02:52he didn't look like, he didn't look like he had it to me.

02:55I got confidence in our guys.

02:57In our defense?

02:59They played well.

03:00Yeah, I think they've improved weekly.

03:04And I think you have to have a better game

03:06than they've had thus far.

03:08They've got to improve even more

03:09to be able to upset and disrupt that offense.

03:13For me, I believe if the running game

03:15is established properly, I think we win the game.

03:20But I don't think it's a blowout.

03:20I think it's a close game.

03:21Very much like Jeff, you know.

03:22I have a lot of faith in Austin, the kicker,

03:25because I think he's done way better

03:28than any other kicker has done over the last,

03:30what, 10, 15 years here.

03:32And I think we have a lot of people

03:33that was questioning him about his leg and all that.

03:36He's kicked it long enough.

03:37He's consistent enough.

03:38And I'll go with him.
