Okay, let's go

Yeah Barton my 10 Yeah My 10 Barton my 10 Barton my take Welcome to part of my take presented by draft Kings the crown is yours today is Friday October 24th and PFT I did not think this was possible But after watching Thursday night football, I can officially say, I feel bad for Carson West. I do too. I do too. I felt the same way. Carson, I we've had her ups and downs in our relationship. By the end of the night tonight, I did in fact feel very bad for the guy because he's obviously in pain. I'm just speculating. You know, we never want to speculate about an injury.

No. But I'm going to speculate that Carson Wins had some sort of dislocated shoulder issue, maybe a labrum, maybe rotator cuff, and it wasn't stayed in place, and it just kept getting popped out over and over and over again. He was just getting beat to hell. And then by the end of the game, as a body language expert.

I saw Carson win sitting on that bench,

staring up at the sky at all the places that, to hell. And then by the end of the game, as a body language expert, I saw Carson win sitting on

that bench, staring up at the sky at all the places that all the ducks would have been flying if he hadn't killed them already. And he was thinking to himself this, this might be the end of the road for all cars. Yeah, it was, it was a pretty depressing watch for Carson. Once did feel bad for him. On the other side, the chargers look like a completely different team when Joe Alt is back. I think Pipkins was back as well. They could actually block for Justin Herbert. Justin Herbert, they ran the ball. Yeah. Very, very well. I was going to say that's that's what Greg Roman wants to do. That's the bar ball wants to do. And if they don't have any of their linemen and they're not going to be be able to do that and it's going to take away their entire identity. I feel like that's exactly what they needed tonight. I had 207 yards rushing. They were dominant and I don't know how much to take away from this because the Vikings offense looked just unhelpable. I it's also like JJ McCarthy has to play. We saw him on the sideline. Maybe a soft been checked for Carson Wentz. Yeah, he, he, he, JJ McCarthy hopped up when the ball came his way that one time. I don't know about that ankle, but you gotta play him. And if you're like Justin Jefferson, you've gotta be very frustrated because that was just an ugly, ugly watch. And to add extra insult to what the Vikings are facing, they have played the number one easiest schedule this year thus far and they have the number one hardest schedule to rest of the season. So it feels like the Vikings could be in a bad spot. They have the lions, Ravens, Bears, Packers, Seahawks, or the next five. So if Wins is unable to go, what's their option? Brosmer? J.J. McCarthy's got to be back. Well, so during the game, I saw somebody post this, we didn't have the sound on that loud so I couldn't hear in Rappaport when he was talking about it. But during the game, he did say that if Carson wins goes out and plays well, that will be taking, taken into consideration on who starts next week. Yeah. So if, if Wednesday going out there and played really well, very well could have been starting again in a week's time, even though it looks like JJ's healthy. So I don't know. I don't know what they're gonna do. It also, a man needs to know his limits.

And I think Kevin O'Connell has learned his limits with Carson Wentz. You know, he did it for Sam Darnold. Probably could have done it for Daniel Jones. I think he did it for you. He was great with Kirk Cousins. Yeah. Carson Wentz is your limit. You gotta know when to walk away from the table. And, and it's time for JJ McCarthy.

But I'm, I still can't get over. I, I, I, chargers.

I'm, they just, they, every time I think I'm out, they reel me back in because you just forget that they've been so banged up. And when they can run the ball like that and, uh, no stupid picks from Herbert. He did have a pick, but I don't think that was a stupid pick. It was it was tipped. Mm-hmm. Well, you got lucky on one stupid pick

Okay, so it's stupid pick Max is counting it. Oh, yeah. The first, yeah, the set the second drive of the game, the first drive of the Chargers. That was that would that would maybe cheat. Mom though, the Vikings were lost by just a little bit less. Yeah, I don't think I would have made a difference. You got to know when to walk away from the table, but sometimes Harbaugh's got the X-ray device out

and he can read your car. by just a little bit less. Yeah, I don't think it would have made a difference. You gotta know when to walk away from the table,

but sometimes Harbaugh's got the X-ray device out

and he can read your cards. That's what we saw tonight. Zach, so yeah, that was Thursday night football again. Carson Wentz, we feel bad for you. I didn't know it was possible. I do, I didn't think it was possible. I didn't think I could feel those feelings for Carson Wentz.

I felt those feelings for Carson Wentz tonight,

watching him in pain, just getting sacked over and over.

And he also, so he is definitely one of the most sackable quarterbacks. He also is, I would say the number one, how did that many people sack him at once quarterback where he will get sacked and there will be six defenders on top of him. You know what it is? He gets down in a really good athletic position.

He dive bot.

When he's about to get sacked, he crouches down low center of gravity, low man wins, he gets the leverage. So he's able to resist the first guy that hits him, but he doesn't like pop up or try to get out. He just kind of stays in like a turtle position. And then he lets three other guys hit him after that.

And there were some sacks they took early on where it's like,

yeah, of course, and you've got to get rid of the ball.
