| 0:22.1 | We are a toucher and rich. Will Brinson is with CBSSports.com. He covers the NFL. He joins us on the AT&T expert hotline. Hello, Mr. Brinson. Good morning, guys. I hope you're doing well. Sorry, I'm back, even though you snub me last week. I'm fine with week. Why do we snub you last week? |
| 0:23.2 | I'm trying to think what was going on. I actually snubed you guys. Yeah, you didn't call in. You never called in. Oh, then you're the jerk. You never answered the phone. There's never even a call in. I didn't answer my phone. Yeah. You chose to ignore our phone calls. And for that, you get one of those, Brinson. |
| 0:38.3 | You do it again. |
| 0:39.8 | There's hell to pay. |
| 0:41.5 | Okay. So Aaron Rogers has heard. What, does Green Bay stand a chance now? Does they stand a chance |
| 0:49.4 | of making the playoffs? They're not in the world's best division. Yeah, they can still make the playoffs because we don't know a lot about Brett |
| 0:57.6 | Hunley, but we do know that he's been in Mike McCarthy's system for three years after |
| 1:02.5 | being a really high upside. Raw prospect coming out of UCLA, big arm, very mobile, a lot |
| 1:09.3 | of physical traits you like in the quarterback, but just sort of, you know, needed some time to refine. And we've seen him do some good stuff in preseason action. We've seen him do some not-so-good stuff in preseason action. You know, we three picks when he came in against the Vikings be on short notice, not ideal. They get the Saints at home this week. They're six-point underdogs, which is kind of surprising. You're going to have a full week to prep and put in a game plan designed for Humley, and then they get their by week. So they can sort of reevaluate, decide that they might go in a different direction. I don't think they will, but then it'll also give an extra two weeks to sort of game plan for Humley. I think you'll see the offense change up a little bit, maybe use some read-option |
| 1:47.5 | contest, but yeah, they can make the playoffs because the other teams involved are the |
| 1:54.1 | lions with a banged-up Matthew Stafford, who have sort of been exposed the last two weeks. |
| 1:58.7 | You have the Vikings who have Case Keenom, Teddy Bridgewater, and San Bradford, and a really good defense. I mean, the Vikings are the favorites, but offensively they are a little bit challenged as well and hurt. When you look at Stefan Diggs, banged up, Dalman Cook out for the season, and then you have the Bears. You have Mitchell Trabiski and like seven guys from the local union playing |
| 2:18.2 | wide receiver for them, and it's a surprising defense. |
| 2:21.0 | I mean, it's just not that good division to, yeah. |
| 2:22.9 | The Packers can survive and make the playoffs, and if they do that, by the way, |
| 2:27.0 | there's an outside shot Rogers could come back for the playoffs. |
| 2:30.3 | I would make the Vikings the favorite. |
| 2:32.5 | I would probably think the Packers as a long shot at the next team, though, because I think you know, just I hit the defense is a little better than people think. They've got the talent, a wide receiver. I just don't love the license. Okay, I want to talk about a team that's having issues for a completely different reason. Did the Patriots ruin the Atlanta Falcons? The reason I ask that is now it's all of the, hey, can you believe these giant leads that this team is blowing? |
| 2:56.4 | You had it last week against the dolphins of all teams at home. |
| 3:00.2 | They lost twice at home in a row to the Bills and then the Dolphins, a 17-point lead that was blown. |
| 3:04.6 | But the thing that really makes me think that the Super Bowl is still in their head |
