| 0:00.0 | All right, I think we've got to figure it out. Max and I are ranking our top five players |
| 0:05.2 | championship weekend. I am going to have next hour a storm update. All of the new model |
| 0:13.6 | runs are coming in. The GFS just ran, so I've got that latest information. The euro will run |
| 0:20.8 | next hour. So towards the end |
| 0:22.9 | of the show, if you want my somewhat informed opinion of what the storm's going to do, I'll have that |
| 0:31.5 | for you around 1230-ish, right around there. All right. So I had Matt Stafford as my number one player on championship weekend. |
| 0:41.1 | You had Pooka Nakua as number one, correct? |
| 0:43.9 | Correct. |
| 0:45.3 | So number two for me is Puka Nakua. |
| 0:49.3 | Good. |
| 0:49.5 | I mean, it's a close call with Jackson Smith and the Jigba. |
| 0:53.4 | I mean, he's been arguably the best receiver of the season so far. |
| 0:58.7 | Naku is just an absolute force, and I'm talking about a physical force. |
| 1:03.9 | He has the best hands, he has the best body, he runs the best routes. And he is so physically tough after the catch. |
| 1:15.9 | Naku is an absolute monster he's turned into this year at receiver. |
| 1:20.9 | I think he is the second best player this weekend. |
| 1:26.3 | Who's your number two? |
| 1:27.3 | So my number two is going to be on the Broncos, actually. I got Nick Benito sitting at number two for me, just because he was leading in sacks at the beginning of the year. He's been playing really well. He just is going to get after Drake May this week, and that's the thing about Drake May is that a lot of times he can run into those sacks. So getting that pressure on him is going to be huge for the Broncos this weekend. Yeah, so give me Nick Benito at number two. I mean, Benito had one of the biggest plays of the game last week. That strip sack fumble, which, you know, they really, really whiffed on the block. but we know how good, we know how good Benito is. |
| 2:03.2 | He's the one that broke up the two-point conversion throw from Marioada, Sunday night, |
| 2:09.8 | Thanksgiving weekend when Washington had a chance to pull off a huge upset. |
| 2:14.6 | My number three, I'm going to stick at receiver and say Jackson Smith and the |
| 2:18.7 | jigba because it was close with Nakua, but JSN's been an absolute monster this year. |
