00:00Dave, quick sports, what do we got?

00:02Well, we start with football because the Bills stayed in first place in the AFC East

00:08by beating the Patriots on Thursday night football.

00:12I told the Patriots they could cheat as much as they wanted.

00:15They didn't listen. Final score, 24-10. Buffalo secures the victory.

00:22They played well. Bills quarterback Josh Allen played pretty decently.

00:26Threw for 233 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions as the Bills improved to 9-3.

00:34But I guess the good news for the Jets is the Patriots dropped to 6-6.

00:38Yeah, there is that.

00:39So at least they're firmly in last place in the AFC East.

00:42There is that.

00:43And they're trying to make sure that they can climb over all of these teams

00:47and maybe they won't have to worry about New England.

00:50Gotta beat the Vikings.

00:51So yeah, it's a big thing.

00:52So this weekend, the Giants take on Washington.

00:56At 1 o'clock, Giants are 7-4.

00:59Commanders are 7-5 and have won three games in a row.

01:03They are playing good football.

01:05And with the Giants' schedule for the rest of the season,

01:08I would absolutely classify this as a must-win game.

01:11Giants really do have to win because they have, you know,

01:14I believe they have the Vikings coming up.

01:17They have a lot of top-tier.

01:17They got another game against Washington in a couple of weeks.

01:20They have an Eagles game, and they have some top-tier games that, you know,

01:23they're probably going to get a few losses, and I'm realistic with that.

01:28But that's why they have to win this game.

01:29Gotta beat the Washington team.

01:30Have to beat this game.

01:31Beat this team.

01:32The Jets go against the Vikings in Minnesota, 1 o'clock.

01:36And yep, it's a tough game.

01:38The Vikings are 9-2.

01:39Yeah, tough game.

01:40Good defense by the Vikings.

01:42But Jets are 7-4.

01:44I think they could turn over Kurt Cousins.

01:47You know, the guy's played well, but in big spots,

01:50I think he throws a couple interceptions.

01:52Hey, we got a great defense.

01:54We got to get to this guy, throw him down a couple of times.

01:57It's not like he's a great running quarterback, right?

02:00No, no, no, no.

02:01He's a pocket passer, and he's someone who I think you can make panic

02:04with pressure and turn him over.

02:08Got to do it.

02:08So, yeah, definitely have to do that.

02:10The Eagles play the Titans in Philadelphia.

02:13It's sad when I'm looking for more touchdowns from my defense

02:17than I think my offense is going to get me.

02:19Well, Mike White will be the starter.

02:23Let's not forget.

02:25Broadway Mike White.

02:27Let's go.

02:28Broadway Mike is there, and he is going to lead this team

02:31to playoff history.

02:34That is a guarantee.

02:36Yesterday, David said that I was guaranteeing a Super Bowl win.

02:40Yes, that's what I said.

02:42I made that up.

02:44You did.

02:44That's the beauty of radio.

02:46Just make things up.

02:47And then the Eagles play the Titans in Philadelphia at 1 o'clock,

02:50Philly 10-1, Tennessee 7-4.

02:53So, really, when you look at it, three really good games in our local NFL area.

02:59Unfortunate that the NFL scheduled them all at the same time.

03:03Seriously.

03:03At 1 o'clock.

03:04Someone should wake up in that office and realize that Giants and Jets

03:08and Eagles, you should separate them.

03:10You got some crossover.

03:11Yeah, because a Giants fan like myself would watch the Eagles-Titans game

03:15because they're in the NFC East.

03:18Anyway, hockey.

03:20Devils lost to the Predators 4-3.

03:21Devils still 19-4-1.

03:23Flyers fell to the Lightning 4-1.

03:26And Rangers were inactive.

03:28They faced the Senators tonight in Madison Square Garden.

03:32Basketball, the Knicks, Nets, and 76ers were all off yesterday.

03:36This evening, the Nets go against the Raptors at the Barkley Center.

03:39The Sixers play the Grizzlies in Memphis.

03:42Baseball.

03:43Baseball Hall of Famer, two-time Cy Young Award winner Gaylord Perry,

03:47the master of the spitball, died yesterday at the age of 84.

03:51Perry had 314 career wins, but it was the spitball.

03:56That made him famous.

03:57He was synonymous with that pitch.

03:59He even wrote a book about it that went places.

04:02And finally, World Cup tomorrow is U.S. versus the Netherlands.

04:08Game begins at 10 a.m.

04:11It's the round of 16, the knockout round.

04:14So it's single elimination, win in advance, lose and go home.

04:18But, hey, America doesn't usually get here, so let's enjoy this.

04:22I am definitely watching this game tomorrow, 10 a.m.

04:26Find yourself a soccer bar.

04:27That is such a fun way to watch games like this.

04:31No question.

04:32You know what?

04:33I believe there may be an article on WRAT.com of good local jersey spots to watch the soccer.

04:41Oh, nice.

04:42So check that out at WRAT.com.

04:43618, the morning RAT race, 95.9, the RAT.
