Transcript

00:00But now the dolphins face elimination.

00:01Officially, this is their playoff scenarios.

00:06Leroy, let's get to Doral headlines brought to you by Doral Hyundai.

00:10Doral Hyundai shoes run with 1,300 new hundred miles in inventory.

00:13Like the Tucson, the Sonata and the Palisade.

00:15Remember when it comes to Hyundai, the great deals are at Doral Hyundai.

00:19So dolphins, they watched that yesterday.

00:22That means they are going to be eliminated.

00:25If they lose again, don't lose can't lose.

00:29Now it's officially a must win because if you do, the season's over.

00:33Any of the games left, but they can still get in.

00:37No, they're going, they're going to need some help.

00:40Uh, this is from the Miami Herald.

00:42Leroy, two Denver losses and a Colts loss.

00:47Chargers, two losses from them and a Colts loss to Denver

00:51losses, two chargers losses, three Baltimore losses and a Colts loss.

00:56Three Baltimore losses into two Denver losses or three Baltimore

01:01losses and two chargers losses.

01:04Here's all you need to know.

01:08Timber or the chargers need to lose two games.

01:13Indy needs to lose one.

01:16Don't even worry about Baltimore.

01:20They ain't losing three games.

01:21They got Pittsburgh, Houston, and they finished with Cleveland.

01:26They ain't losing three games.

01:28Now the Cleveland game Cleveland is they play well against

01:34Pittsburgh and Baltimore.

01:35I can't explain it, but they do.

01:39Well, everybody would look at that as the easiest one.

01:41So maybe there is a, maybe there is a Ravens collapse on the horizon.

01:44No, they don't like, I mean, I'm just going by history.

01:49Here's who the chargers got.

01:52New England and Vegas.

01:54Right.

01:57Denver, Cincinnati on the road.

02:01And then they host Kansas city.

02:03I guess it's going to depend what Kansas city has to play for.

02:05But even if, even if like the thing about Kansas city is the way they play, even

02:14if Patrick Mahomes doesn't play, they still can win because like, look at the

02:20games, look how they've been winning football games.

02:22True.

02:23Pat Holmes ain't thrown for a million yards.

02:26True, true, true, true.

02:27Like from that standpoint, it's crazy to say this.

02:35I would not dismiss Kansas city without Patrick Mahomes just based

02:41on how they played this year.

02:44Uh, and then the unfortunate thing for the Colts, they need

02:47Colts to get one more loss.

02:50The Colts got Tennessee.

02:52Now, Tennessee is not playing we'll love us anymore.

02:55And then they had their, do you hear their coaches tirade this week?

02:58No.

02:59Oh, we'll get that for you.

03:00This guy, I mean, he went on a tirade against people calling this team South.

03:05Oh, you know what I did?

03:07I did hear that.

03:08Um, like I, I sometimes think there's certain terms associated with not

03:18winning that are unfair.

03:22And I think that's one of them, right?

03:27That if you're not winning, you're soft.

03:31Like, and that's kind of how they, that, or the other thing they'll say is if a

03:36team goes on a run or a losing streak where they lose a couple of games, right.

03:42Then I'll say that the team has given up on their coach and the

03:46coach doesn't have the locker.

03:48Like stuff like that.

03:50I'm really not, uh, I mean, I'm not going to say that, you know,

03:54is a distinct possibility.

03:57And here's what fans don't get.

03:59Your team might not be good enough.

04:02Like there's still that possibility.

04:05Let's not just assume that every time your team goes out and play, you should win.

04:14Then the Colts also play at the giants.

04:18Now, now I will say this, this is, and they made a very valid point.

04:26You know how you can tell if a team has given up, go look at how many guys

04:33practice or how many guys miss practice.

04:36Okay.

04:36How many guys did you see that in the injury report?

04:40You really want me to do that?

04:41Yeah.

04:42Look at the injury report and see how many guys practice.

04:47And that'll let, you know, got to look at the dolphins injury report too, though.

04:51Yeah.

04:51But we know these guys are like, they started the season with a huge injury

04:57report, not too bad.

05:00If this is the litmus test and they've got to hold it to everybody, everybody

05:03has to be held to that standard giants play.

05:08Yeah, it's not, it's not too bad.

05:13It's like four guys didn't practice.

05:14I don't know who's on IR and whatnot, but on their injury report, guys

05:17who actually didn't practice is only four.

05:19But that, that's usually whenever, whenever you see one of these teams

05:25and you have questions on whether they've given up on their team.

05:30Now, one of the issues that you could have with the dolphins, right.

05:35And, and if you want to throw that theory out there is that sometimes

05:41the, the, the, the work you put in during the week and the effort you put in during

05:47the week reflects the effort you put in during the game.

05:51Sure.

05:51And when you have half of your team taking veterans days and not practicing

05:56when it's time to crank it up, right.

05:59You know?

06:00So like, perfect example is man.

06:03Campbell say, Hey, we need to be tougher.

06:06We're going to have Oklahoma drills.

06:07It was tough as hell.

06:08Them first couple of weeks, wasn't it?

06:09When they were here.

06:10Yeah.

06:11Yeah.

06:11Look, look at Detroit.

06:13Like they have a hard camps.

06:15Like you, you have to, you got to get your body ready for that.

06:19So there's truth to be said about that.

06:22Anything more depressing than having to rely on Tommy DeVito to save your season.

06:27I like, I don't, I don't save, I look at, I look at it this way.

06:32Um, you had your chances.

06:35You had your opportunities a hundred percent.

06:38Yeah.

06:38And, and, and if it gets, and now that it's getting to this, but I would like,

06:46even if they don't make the playoffs, I would like to see them go on a run where

06:50you can just have some type of hope or promise that, Hey, they can do this.

06:57I would like them to, you know, play more physical.

07:01And I'm not going to say Calais and, and, um, sealer don't play physical.

07:06I'm not saying that.

07:08Okay.

07:08We know you're talking about, you're talking about the offense.

07:10They like, dude, when it gets 40, 35, 40 degrees with snow, right?

07:21You, all you can do is line up and go forward.

07:25And, and, and this team, I have questions whether they can do that.

07:29Yeah, I agree with you, man.

07:31Anyway, that's your dolphins playoff scenario.

07:33It was probably a waste of time, but I wanted to give it to you guys.

07:36Thanks to Barry Jackson for spelling that all out in the Miami Herald.

07:39He didn't say if everybody finishes nine and eight, that all of us

07:42could finish as high as the six seed.

07:44They have tiebreakers over Baltimore chargers in Denver and Cincinnati.

07:48Um, but they don't of course be the Colts cause they lost to them.

07:52Right.

07:53Which is, which here's the deal with the Colts.

07:59They can lose the rest of their games.

08:01If their quarterback acts the way he's been acting, or they could throw

08:06five passes and they can win the last three games because the

08:09quarterback run for one 20.

08:10Yeah.

08:11You see what I mean?

08:12Like it, you, you just, you just don't know with the chargers.

08:19I don't know how long he's going to play quarterback because he can't there.

08:23It almost seems like everybody in the state of Indiana is terrified

08:27when this dude throws a pass.

08:29Agreed.
