  • it don't mean a thing if you don't get the ring.

  • Bart Scott.

  • That's what Bruce Arian says.

  • What do you think?

  • I'll tell you what I think that's true.

  • But I think it would be tough sledding for them to go into Green Bay after this week and beat Aaron riders.

  • I think no quarterback is playing better.

  • No team is playing better, but I think that this should be a game that they should get.

  • But this is a game that's intriguing to me, simply because whenever we've seen Tom Brady struggle has been at night recently, passes bedtime passes that time.

  • But it's also been whenever you have ability to get four pass rushers to be able to harass him.

  • You think about the NASCAR package from both of those Giants teams.

  • You know they have Ryan Kerrigan coming off fifth.

  • You got Montana sweat on the outside, and one thing this team doesn't do enough of that, they're gonna have to rediscover in the playoffs.

  • Is running the football being able to salt the game away because when you throw the ball is many times they throw the ball.

  • You always give the opponent an opportunity to get back in the game because it's always time left on the clock incompletions.

  • Stop the clock.

  • You know, they're gonna have to run the ball there 28th in the league and running the ball.

  • And that's a shame when you have running back as good as Leonard for net, you have Ronald Jones.

  • You have shady McCoy.

  • They're gonna have to mix it up.

  • And if they don't mix it up, it's gonna be a short campaign this year.

  • And it's gonna be a disappointing season and they won't get a chance to get that ring.

  • And he's gonna have to burn the candles.

  • I was.

  • So as far as this a Zara's this weekend is concerned, Rob Ninkovich that to Tom Brady.

  • Is this a defense?

  • This young defense led by Chase Young and all those guys on that line?

  • Can they wreck this game?

  • Is this a defense that could do to Brady what that NASCAR package Giants defense did to him once upon a time?

  • I don't think so, because those those seems that affected him the most have great interior inside push.

  • When I say inside push, I mean their ability to get pressure inside the pocket.

  • Tom Brady, Who's gonna step if you have guys coming off the edge, he is the best.

  • That feeling pressure, stepping up into the pocket and avoiding pressure.

  • So I don't know.

  • I don't know if Washington get pressure on the inside.

  • If they blitz up the middle, maybe a little bit.

  • But on the edges, they love toe, pin their ears back and just get up the field.

  • That is kind of Tom's forte.

  • He's gonna get back in the in the his drop.

  • He's gonna feel the pressure.

  • He's gonna step up, so they're gonna have to have some type of inside pressure to affect him the most.

  • Alright, so that's something to watch for the game.

  • And then Ryan, let me finish this with you.

  • Your buddy Dominic Fox Worth said yesterday he doesn't see any way Washington wins this game because of the other point that we made here.

  • You have to score points to beat Tom Brady in the playoffs and he's not convinced they can.

  • Can Washington put up 27 which is what it looks like they need to win this game?

  • Hell, no.

  • Greeny e not gonna happen no.

  • The only way to do that right?

  • If their best player or that seems like the guy who's best with the football in his hands, Chase Young actually gets his hand on the football again if they could create pressure on Tom Brady and forced turnovers.

  • But listen, Alex Smith has, without a doubt, been the greatest story of this season.

  • He's the comeback player of the year.

  • He's five and one as the starting quarterback, but he's already hobbled.

  • So much so that Taylor Hi, Nicky.

  • Getting some snaps.

  • This game has been a topic of conversation for the Washington football team, and so you go into a game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who have a young secondary who have rushers on the outside.

  • Two of the best linebackers in the league.

  • Far as a dual is concerned in White and David, and you're expecting to score 27 points on this team, It's not gonna happen.

  • It's going to have to be a stellar outing by this Washington football defense in order for this game to even be close.

  • And if you're expecting the Washington football team to go out and put up big points against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

  • You are sorely misguided.

  • I think this game is the wash.

  • I believe the Tampa Bay Buccaneers run away with it, not just because they could score points, but because they will be able to dominate the Washington football team when they're on offense.

  • And so that's the point.

  • If they put up, if that offense looks really good, Bart, will that convince you?

  • I got 30 seconds.

  • Well, that convince you they could go.

  • The matchups could send them to Green Bay next weekend.

  • It's not definite, but if that if they put up 35 points against this defense, would that convince you they could beat the Bucks?

  • The Packers?

  • No, not at all.

  • Not until I see them rushed for over 100 100 yards and show me some balance.

  • Show me a game plan that's that's designed to be able to beat Green Bay.

  • Green Bay.

  • Achilles Hill is being able to stop the run, and to do that, you have to loosen them up by saying, Hey, you got to keep these safeties out of his box.

  • If I don't have to respect the run game, then I'm going to sit back.

  • And those windows that's gonna be open from play action won't be there in the playoffs and tipped balls.

  • Change games.

  • Greenie.
