00:00First, that is the first game on Saturday. The Chiefs and the Texans are going to get together.

00:04Here is D'Amico. Now, will Patrick Bowman's player or will he not? He said today he's gonna try.

00:09Uh, this was D'Amico yesterday basically saying, I don't care if he's playing or not,

00:12Chiefs are a real good football team and we gotta be at our best.

00:15I have no idea on if he's playing or not, so I really can't focus on it or be concerned about it.

00:21You know, we're preparing for the Chiefs and, you know, a lot of the light shines on Patrick a lot,

00:28but, you know, if you watch the Chiefs play, their defense is an outstanding unit.

00:32They do a really good job defensively. Coach Spagnuolo's done a great job.

00:37Coach Reed in offense, they're gonna find a way no matter who's there,

00:40they find a way to move the football, right? And so we just have to be on it

00:45in all areas of the game, whether Patrick is there or not.

00:50Well, good for you. I mean, look, I don't know. This is another thing you're not gonna know until

00:57Friday, maybe even Saturday, if this guy's gonna play or not.

01:00Now, Reed also tried to sell you this nonsense that they have all this confidence

01:05in Carson Wentz, Patrick Mahomes. Calm down, all right? You have Patrick Mahomes.

01:11He's the best quarterback of the last, you know, seven years, whatever it is, six, seven, eight

01:16years. Anybody who comes in for him is nowhere near the same. So you can say you have all the

01:22confidence, all you want. You're in trouble, especially the way they played this year.

01:26You're gonna be in trouble. Let's face facts about Carson Wentz for a second here.

01:31I mean, you talk about a train derailment, this guy's career. I mean, honestly, like the train

01:36flew off the tracks into the woods. Honestly, like, who's afraid of him? Now, it'd be great

01:43to see him have a good game for once. Like the guy hasn't done anything in the NFL except fail.

01:51I'm sorry. That's just all there is to it. Now, I would love to see him come out and have this

01:56spectacular day, but we all know that's not happening, right? Like, do you really have faith

02:01in that dude at all? How many teams has he been on now? He has gone from being a big-time,

02:06high-priced starter to nobody. He's nobody. This actually, now yesterday, I'm sure that you

02:17maybe discussed this for a moment or not, I saw the Texans as three-point favorites

02:22yesterday with the Mahomes stuff. That is now, after his press conference this afternoon

02:28saying he's pushing to play, that has now changed to Chiefs minus one and a half is what I'm seeing

02:34right now. At this very second, Chiefs minus one and a half and a 43 and a half total.

02:40I hit the Texans over the, you know, Dolphins on Sunday at NRG. This is a whole different ball

02:47of wax. They're going to Arrowhead and they're going to lose. It's not about Carson Wentz.

02:54If he hands the ball off, if he throws a couple of first downs, they'll be happy. This is about

03:00Spag's defense giving Stroud nightmares. That's what that's about. This is about, hey, read to

03:09the team before the game. Defense, we need you to win this game for us today. We have no

03:14quarterback, so we need you to win the game. Not only that, I can see Carver High already carving

03:20out defensive tutties, team tutties defensively. I can see it already. We could absolutely get that

03:29if he's going to be in there. I don't believe, I'll never believe that Mahomes isn't playing

03:34until I physically see it. I have to actually see it with my own eyes because I've so many times in

03:40the past. Oh, he's so hurt. You're carrying him off the field. He always plays. He always plays.

03:48They thought he was finished. What was that last two years ago against Jacksonville? He's not

03:52playing. They went and won the Superbowl. He didn't miss anything. Like it's like, it's just,

03:57it never ends with this guy. He'll be out there on Saturday with his crippled foot. He's like

04:03limping like he's in a movie. Like he's, you know, coming out of the Vietnam woods and he's

04:09carrying guys on his shoulders with a broken foot. That's too much. It's too much. So he'll

04:14be out there. He limps around in the playoffs like he's a cripple and he still wins. I hope.
