AFC Conference Contenders and Pretenders
Transcript
00:00 Now that we're nearing the midway point in this NFL season, is there somebody in the AFC, a team that you feel like is a pretender?
00:07 That maybe we thought could have been a contender, but now it's looking like, "Oof, you're a pretender."
00:13 You know, when the Dolphins play other great teams, and they get the Chiefs this weekend overseas,
00:20 the Dolphins come close to the Buffalo Bills, but they don't ever quite usurp the Buffalo Bills.
00:28 Right.
00:29 I think the Bills are for real. They've just been really good for too long to consider them to be a mirage.
00:37 I think the Baltimore Ravens and Roquan Smith as a centerpiece of that defense, and then Lamar Jackson.
00:45 And there's things that they don't do just right on offense. For instance, they know that they could have used running back help.
00:51 And they'll keep riding old Gus back there and let him be the running back, and actually ride Lamar Jackson and kind of let him be the running back.
00:58 But I think the Ravens are clearly for real. I think the Bills are clearly for real.
01:03 And I think it might be the Dolphins that have something to prove when they play other standout teams.
01:08 Okay.
