… Because the Raiders and the Giants played in The tank battle here in Vegas.
Wow.
Uh, they’re lucky that this game was a duel.
Split, that it was only two games on a double-header this afternoon.
Because I did watch this more than I thought I would.
Uh, but yeah, the Raiders lose, but they potentially win.
Just lose, baby.
Uh, talked about this with Sheil.
I think this is okay.
Um, 80% chance of getting the first overall.
Pick now, and the Giants… And I do think, you know, They win this game 34 to 10.
Uh, I, I don’t know what to make of this game.
I thought there was some stuff happening on offense, at least.

You know, a couple nice plays on the offense, but I also thought, You know, Dart, Jackson Dart had a very Jackson Dart game.
I think that’s the best way to put it.
Man, just… You gotta…
I mean, 10 points.
He scored 10 points against One of the worst teams in the league.
Uh, so I… Like that… Like I’m looking at, like, the Raiders and the Jets, I’m like, “Dude, where do you even start here, like in the offseason?”
I know.
Where do you possibly start with how far away you are from actually being competitive?
And man, like if Mendoza or Dante Moore or I love a good Tankathon graphic, by the way.
I love this conversation.

Yeah, seriously.
…
When the Tankathon, the Tankathon graphic comes on the air.
The Tankathon graphic.
I’m sorry.
I looked up and I saw thatyeah.
…
I’ll just start… Yeah, I’ll say two things.
…
Laughing about it, Josh.
I’ll say two things: Mendoza or Dante Moore.
Whoever gets pickedyeah.
… By the Raiders.
God bless you, man.
That’s going to be a really tough job.
Tough turnaround.
It’s probably not gonna be a pretty rookie.
Season, because they’re just barren on offense.
And the Giants, I don’t know if that game makes you safe.
Jackson, I’m not quite sure if that game makes you 100%.
Safe because you still have the number two overall pick.

And let’sI mean, quite frankly, I just don’t think that if you’re looking at, Beating the Raiders as a form of like, “Oh, we’ve made like some real progress here,” after You threw for 13 yards last week, uh, against an actual good team in the Vikings.
Is, is…
If that should really sell you on that.
I would imagine that, depending on where they fall.
If they, if they hit the, uh, you know, maybe if they hit the third or the fourth pick.
We’ll probably hear, um, less about the, uh, Giants potentially picking a quarterback.
But there were reports about it this morning, and I’m not sure that you should jump off.
Of that just because you beat the Raiders.
