Then, on the 21 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,679 Speaker 1: very next play, Koy Parritch intercepted a pass returned it 22 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 1: for a twenty seven yard touchdown pick six common. What's 23 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: six out to you from the Gophers win over the 24 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: boiler Makers? 25 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 3: Other, I guess sother, I guess. The only thing to 26 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 3: say is it better to win than lose. That Perdue 27 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 3: might be one of the worst FBS schools ever assembled. 28 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 3: And I did I see this right? Were we We 29 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 3: had literally no run? We ran for thirty yards. They 30 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 3: ran for like over two hundred, one hundred, one hundred. 31 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 3: How did we even win the game? I did not 32 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 3: see much of it. I was I was about to 33 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 3: do one of the best comedy shows in the history 34 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 3: of Spicer. Well it's the only comedy show in the 35 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 3: history of Spicer. But we meet sass E and Lermandela 36 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 3: Guy were in Spicer and so the show started at 37 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 3: seven thirty. So I watched some of the golfer game 38 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 3: but couldn't see at all. But you know, and again, 39 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 3: you know, like I say, they pulled the fat out 40 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 3: of the fire. But you know, if you remember Tennebee 41 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 3: after the lost to Ohio State, let's face it, it's 42 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 3: no it's no shame to lose to Ohio State. They 43 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 3: got a payroll, that's I think. I think they would 44 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 3: be over the cap if they were in the National 45 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 3: Football League. I think that's how much their payroll was. 46 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 3: And that's a really really good football team. That's an 47 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 3: offensive line that's three hundred pounds across every guy. I 48 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 3: bet most of them end up at playing in the NFL. 49 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 3: And the Gophers got smoked, and the coach after the 50 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 3: game said, we got you know, I know we lost, 51 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 3: but we've got a really good football team. They did 52 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 3: not look like a really good football team against proved 53 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 3: Now they won, and so it's you know, you can say, well, 54 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 3: you know, but if they continue to play like that, 55 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 3: they won't beat some of the other Big ten teams, 56 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 3: even the ones that you think they you know, should 57 00:02:57,880 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 3: be even with your I was your your your wiscon 58 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,959 Speaker 3: instance is I don't even know who else is on 59 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 3: their schedule. They got the Michigan States as is and 60 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 3: some of the others. But but I, like lindsay, I 61 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 3: think they got a kid that's a that's a good quarterback. 62 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 3: But they're still a long way from It's like I 63 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 3: said all along, and I have nothing against Fleck, and 64 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 3: I'll do the old who are you going to get 65 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 3: that's better? Seriously, because I don't I just don't think 66 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 3: Minnesota will ever be that. I've started to throw a 67 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 3: wet blank at Wednesday on it on a man negative. 68 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:29,399 Speaker 3: But I just don't think. I just think this is here. 69 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 3: It's we're never going to be a helmet school and 70 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 3: that's okay. So but they need to play a little 71 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 3: better than they did. But as I said at the 72 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 3: beginning of the question, better to win than it is 73 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 3: to lose. 74 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 2: Question number two. 75 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: Time now for an in depth look at the state 76 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: of the state of hockey. 77 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 3: I think this is the one you're talking about. Came 78 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 3: back to Earth a jee huh. 79 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: The Wild recorded a franchise record fifty two shots on goal. 80 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: They were four for eight on the power play. Curl 81 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: capries Off and Matt bold To each tally three points. 82 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: Zee Boulliam scored his first Ngel goal, and yet the 83 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: Wild loss of the Columbus Blue Jackets seven to four 84 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: Saturday night at Grand Casino Arena dropped the record at 85 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: one in one common what went wrong against Columbus? 86 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 3: Did they play with an empty net the entire games? 87 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 3: That must have been what happened? Right? They just said 88 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 3: we're gonna play with six attackers, We're going to try 89 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 3: a strategy that's never been done in the history of 90 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 3: the National Hockey League. We're going to skate six the 91 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 3: entire game. What happened to Gus Buss? 92 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 2: He was brilliant in game one, right, he had a shutout. YEP. 93 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: I would say, you know, obviously, if you're giving up 94 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 1: seven goals, that's not a great performance. 95 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 2: It's not all on humanmus no, it never is. 96 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:52,359 Speaker 1: There was definitely some issues in front of him. A 97 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 1: guy like brock Faber, who we've been known to trust 98 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 1: and is typically consistent. Uh, he made a couple gaffs 99 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: early in that game, and him and you know, it 100 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: was Jonas Rodin's first game back, and that pairing gave 101 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 1: up a couple of goals early on in that game. 102 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: They were down to nothing early when they when they 103 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 1: tied at to two in the second period, and at 104 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 1: that point they had been pushing and pushing. I thought, 105 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,160 Speaker 1: this is the part of the game they're just gonna 106 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,919 Speaker 1: steam roll Columbus because they were really were out playing 107 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: them and they just kind of have little mental apses 108 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: here or there at the beginning of every period they 109 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: were giving up goals. So I think it's just one 110 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: of those, you know, like one of your one of 111 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: your old emails, they would just crumple up and throw 112 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: in the garbage. Yeah, there's obviously some things. They are 113 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 1: not a perfect team. They have some flaws, and they 114 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: if Capriceo off and Bold they don't score. Was show 115 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: this point they have at a pretty good pace. But 116 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: if those two aren't scoring, then offensively, I think they 117 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: still might have some struggles, especially with Zucarello out with injury. 118 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 2: Some of the defensive stuff. 119 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: Mistakes are being made by guys who have equity in 120 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: this league, so I'm not as concerned with in that regard. 121 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: So the Wild now have to take on the La 122 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 1: Kings tonight. 123 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 3: So I don't know if there's really an apology, but 124 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 3: you know, I just want to space. I think it 125 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 3: was on Wednesday you said, wow, kind of a we're 126 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 3: on the edge of a playoff team, you know, as 127 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 3: we're getting ready for the opening end of Thursday. Then 128 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 3: Thursday we went five nothing. We played almost a perfect 129 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 3: hockey game. I go after you say, you know, I 130 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 3: used to think you were the foremost hockey expert. You 131 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 3: steered me wrong. Well, now I got to back up, 132 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 3: and maybe you're right, because they were brilliant and they. 133 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:43,679 Speaker 2: Really weren't brilliant. 134 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: I know, the score looks like it's five nothing, that 135 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: looks like they were brilliant, But I would say the 136 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: goaltending was brilliant. 137 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 2: But even in that. 138 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: Game, they got out shot, they got out chanced by 139 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 1: Saint Louis. It was one of those where the wilder 140 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: opportunistic on their opportunities and their goalie was stopping the other. 141 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: And that kind of switched a little bit against Columbus 142 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: where we weren't as opportunistic as we pretty well, and 143 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: we still scored four goals and the power plays scored 144 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: all of them. The power play has been really, really good, 145 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: but they still have some depth issues five on five. 146 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: I mean, that second line has basically been non existent 147 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: here and they're already making changes tonight. Felino is going 148 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: to move to the third line, Johansen up to the 149 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: second line. The Russian kid Eurob's going to make his 150 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: NHL debut tonight, so he's in the lineup as fourth 151 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: line center. 152 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 2: But you know, I. 153 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: Know everyone's getting frustrated with Felino on the second line, 154 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: and then now Joehanson's gonna be on the second line. 155 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 2: Why aren't the young kids getting more of a shot. 156 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:48,679 Speaker 1: I think what people need to understand is the depths 157 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: on this team from a forward standpoint is just not 158 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: that good. 159 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 2: Yet. 160 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: We knew that before the season started, and then when 161 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: you combound that with Matt Zucarello's out of the lineup 162 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: and Nico Sturm's out of the lineup, I think it's 163 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: hard to think that these young guys are just gonna 164 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: come in right day one in twenty twenty five and 165 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: just have immediate impact. 166 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 3: So how many points did did Capriceoff have? Is it 167 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 3: three in this game? 168 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 2: Two? 169 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 3: Is that three? And three? 170 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: They both him and Boldly have six points right now 171 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: through two games. So I think they're like fifth and 172 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:20,120 Speaker 1: six in the league right now. 173 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 3: So they're on pace.

Get it seems like everybody's playing. 200 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: I watch them Bears Bears Washington. 201 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, I watch some Bears Washington just because it's kind 202 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 3: of sing North. I have zero interest in Seattle versus 203 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 3: Toronto in the playoffs. Zero zero. I don't know why. 204 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 3: I just don't care. I am interested in Brewers versus Dodgers. 205 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 3: I like the idea that it's the big bad Dodgers 206 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 3: the biggest payroll in Major League Baseball. If it's not 207 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 3: the biggest, it's second, it's you know, it's there. It's 208 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 3: either the Dodgers at the Yankees defending World Series champions, 209 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 3: They're stacked top to bottom and like they have it's 210 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 3: like they have an all star team. Then you have 211 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 3: the mid middle million Brewers, who are small market or 212 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 3: mid market, whatever you want to call it. They made 213 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 3: a couple of mid season acquisitions that h that helped teams. 214 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 3: A pitcher and a hitter, and they're both instrumental in 215 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,439 Speaker 3: this in the in the in the that second round 216 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 3: of the playoffs, matter of fact, in the in the 217 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 3: game clincher. I think the pitcher, I don't know, Muriokowski 218 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 3: or something. He he pitched like four innings of of 219 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,559 Speaker 3: shutout ball. The other kiper is named Vaughn somebody else. 220 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 3: They got everyday player they got hit a home run 221 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 3: at me. They find players, they must have a decent 222 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 3: farm system. They can beat you. With a long ball, 223 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 3: or they can just play small ball. It'll be a 224 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 3: lot of fun. I think obviously they're the underdog and 225 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 3: and that's the team. And I saw that early. That's 226 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 3: why I bet Rosen. Was it how much of money 227 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 3: that I bet Rosen was at twelve bucks? 228 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? 229 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 3: I bet Rosen twelve dollars months ago that the Brewers 230 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 3: would would make it to the NLCS. And he took 231 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 3: that bet because he doesn't understand baseball. He doesn't follow 232 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 3: sports at all. If he ever did, I always love 233 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 3: that boy. He doesn't have the insight that I do. 234 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 3: So we'll see what happens.

Uh Chipskoggin's 252 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 3: Esteemed Commons Fish Rep Factory west Side. We were close 253 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 3: personal friends. We text and talked more than most people know. 254 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 3: We're both from Woodbury. Chip wrote about the game in 255 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:03,719 Speaker 3: his column. He writes, the Gophers won despite being out 256 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 3: rushed two hundred and fifty three to thirty by one 257 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 3: of the worst rushing offenses in major college football. That 258 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 3: seems almost impossible, But it happened. That does seem almost impossible. 259 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 3: Ten me, if I told you forget who the teams were. 260 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 3: If I said tennant, two college football teams met on 261 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 3: a gridiron. One of them rushed for two hundred and 262 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 3: fifty three yards, the other for thirty. Who won the game, 263 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 3: you would. 264 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 2: Say, I would say the other team won nothing. 265 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:31,959 Speaker 3: Yes, that's what you would think. It is that they 266 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 3: just steamrolled. They did not the Gophers. Here's here's what else, 267 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 3: chip rights. Gopher's offensive line had a rough outing, the 268 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 3: defense missed too many tackles. Again. Drake Lindsay completed only 269 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 3: forty seven percent of his passes, but the Gophers hung 270 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,719 Speaker 3: around until the boiler Makers predictably self imploded, and then 271 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 3: Lindsay and Paris made winning plays to allow the Gophers 272 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 3: to celebrate. Lindsay led, I remember how many yards it was. 273 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 3: You stated it in your five to three. 274 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 2: Four seven yard drive. 275 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then Perris had the pick six. And that 276 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 3: was really the difference in the game. And turnovers. That's 277 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 3: where it says turnovers. Purdue had four big plays and turnovers. Yeah, 278 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 3: the Gophers had one. The Boiler Bakers threw an interception 279 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 3: at the goal line on a trick play. The receivers 280 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 3: dropped a handful of easy catches they kept alive, the 281 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 3: Gophers tying touchdown driving the fourth quarter with not one 282 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 3: but two face mass penalties on plays that should have 283 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 3: been sacks, including one on third down. They kicked the 284 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 3: field go from the three yard line. Those gifts opened 285 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 3: the door and the Gophers walked through it. Big Picture 286 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 3: and his coaching staff have issues to solve. They shuffled 287 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 3: the offensive line for the Ohio State game, but that 288 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 3: unit's not winning the battle of the trenches, Darius Taylor 289 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 3: finishing with thirty two yards on fourteen carries. So again 290 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 3: the coach stating, we have a really good football teim. 291 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 3: And I know why he said. We all know Fleck. 292 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 3: He's a motivator, he's a cheerleader, he's a promoter of 293 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 3: his programs. He's he's Ringling Brothers Barnam and Bailey Service. 294 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, he's and he's good at it at 295 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 3: promoting his program. You know what I did say, you know, 296 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 3: you know, I said, you know, this program would never 297 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 3: be Helmet School. It's never going to happen here, and 298 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 3: it never has except you know what, sixty seven we 299 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 3: went to the Rose Bowl, and then before then, I 300 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 3: think it was we won three national championships back in 301 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 3: the thirties with Bronco Negersky. But it can happen in 302 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:32,359 Speaker 3: places it never happened before. Look at Indiana. Yeah, Indiana 303 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 3: last year I think got off to like I were, 304 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 3: they tend to know. At one time they had a 305 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 3: gaudy undefeated record. Then they finally played I don't remember 306 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 3: who it was. They played a couple of quality clubs 307 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 3: and they lost. And again I think one of them 308 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 3: got beat Rither. You know, my memory is not great, 309 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 3: but it feels like I remember they lost handily to 310 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 3: a pretty good football team. So then he said, wow, 311 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 3: there you go. If you have an easy schedule in 312 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 3: the Big Ten, you can, you can. But then they 313 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 3: beat Oregon or at at Oregon, at Eugene, and Oregon's 314 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 3: a really good football team, like number three in the nation. Yeah, 315 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 3: and now Indiana has the third spot. Siingnetti, I can't, 316 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,640 Speaker 3: I don't. I can't pronounce the coach's name. He's a 317 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 3: football coach, kind of a guy, right, It's always got 318 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 3: that serious, stern look. You know, he's he's another most 319 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 3: I think most football coaches. They eat, drink, sleep, breed, 320 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 3: the whole thing. But that team's done it. In Indiana, as 321 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 3: we all know, was a basketball school. They've never been 322 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 3: a football school. I think it was sixty seven when 323 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 3: I think it was, the Gophers in Indiana shared the 324 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 3: Big Ten title and then one of them got to 325 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 3: I think the Golphers got to go to the bowl games. 326 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 3: They'd been to one and I don't know how it worked, 327 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 3: but so it can happen. Matt and I watched a 328 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 3: lot of that game, and you know, I was up 329 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 3: in Spicer in the hotel room. Deuce was back at home. 330 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 3: We watched Nebraska win their game against Maryland. And Nebraska's 331 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 3: there now in the top twenty five. 332 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 2: So that's what we got this week. 333 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, my two boys schools, one one in the nation, 334 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 3: the other one's twenty five. I think there's probably more 335 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 3: than twenty four spots that separate those two clubs, to 336 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 3: be honest with you, because I just think Ohio State 337 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 3: and maybe it'll change. I mean, Illinois did score sixteen points, 338 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 3: he had three figures in a tuddy and going into 339 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 3: that game, Ohio State they'd only given up twenty five 340 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 3: points in five games. That's just that's almost like it 341 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 3: seems like a pro football team. I'm not gonna I'm 342 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 3: not gonna pull a Rosie and say, you know, I 343 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 3: think Ohio State could be half the teams in the NFL, 344 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 3: because they couldn't. But that's that's that's a that's a 345 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 3: really good football team. Obvious, they're a great football team. 346 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 3: The sad thing about so and we saw what happened 347 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 3: in Penn State. The Franklin guy got fired and he'd 348 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 3: turned that program around. His problems. He couldn't beat top 349 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 3: ten teams. I think his record against top ten opponents 350 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 3: was four in twenty one. And then they just lost 351 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 3: to Northwestern Saturday the week before. Who did they lose to? 352 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 3: Was it? Who did they lost to? Another mediocre club? 353 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 3: They lost back to you say, La Ucla? The jabbronis 354 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 3: from Ucla hadn't won a game all year. And Penn 355 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 3: State lost, and then Penn State lost. And the reason 356 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 3: Franklin is out because you know what I've been able 357 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 3: to gather from talking to people and reading things is 358 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 3: he was really adamant and vocal about, well, we don't 359 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 3: have what Ohio State, Michigan do. Give me that and 360 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 3: guess what I'll do. And they finally did they d it? 361 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 3: Did I read this right? They had an assistant coach 362 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 3: making three million dollars a year, their defensive coach I 363 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 3: think about three millions for defensive coordinator. And they went 364 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 3: out and they they I think they had plenty of 365 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 3: nil money and they got players and they and then 366 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 3: they they go from three and oho to zero to 367 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 3: three and he's out now from it was a huge 368 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 3: buyout too. It was a large amount of money. But 369 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 3: here's the thing. Penn State's a very attractive job, right 370 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 3: and my guess is Franklin will get hired whenever he 371 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,640 Speaker 3: wants to play. I don't know if he I don't 372 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 3: know when when he'll be ready to coach again, probably 373 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 3: not till next year. But he'll get hired by somebody 374 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 3: because he did rebuild that program. He did a good job, 375 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 3: but he asked for the moon, he got it and 376 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 3: then it was just awful. So but here's the sad 377 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 3: thing I told Douce this. Apparently the A D for 378 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 3: Penn State was the A D at Temple when he 379 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 3: hired Matt Rule, the the coach for the Nebraska. So 380 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 3: there's already it's the rumblings. You know, my people are 381 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 3: starting to speculate. They're to say, I'm really happy at Nebrasky. 382 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 3: Of course, until you get the until you get the 383 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 3: job offer, you're happy where you're at. And you know, Tennab, 384 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 3: I know we all you preach for loyalty from the kids, 385 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 3: you know when they go to the transfer portal and 386 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,679 Speaker 3: all this. But coaches play a different game, right, especially 387 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 3: like in NCAA, Bascal, They're constantly moving around, right. 388 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: And you know what, Here's what Rule said the day 389 00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: during his weekly available He said, this place is elite. 390 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: And I want to be a great father, and i 391 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: want to be a great football coach college football coach, 392 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: and so I'm going to talk a lot about so 393 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: I'm not going to talk a lot about job openings 394 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: when they come. 395 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 2: He later says, I absolutely love. 396 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: It here, and I just want us to continue to 397 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: take the steps and needed for us to turn this 398 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 1: thing into a beast and have players all across the 399 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: country want to come here with the best facilities we have, 400 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: elite fans. 401 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 2: I'm just looking at the future. But again, I love 402 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 2: that place. 403 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,919 Speaker 1: Talking about Penn State, I love Pat, I love James Franklin, 404 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: and I'm sad that it came to an end. 405 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 2: I wish him the absolute best, but I'm really happy here. 406 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 3: You and maybe he really feels that way, you know. 407 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 3: And look, I've been to Lincoln. I don't know what 408 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 3: Deuce was thinking going to Lincoln, but he did. I 409 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 3: could not live in Lincoln. It's like the wind is 410 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 3: always blowing twenty to thirty miles an hour. It's really 411 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 3: hot in the summer. There's not a heck of a lot. 412 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 3: It's the football team is basically it right, which is 413 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,439 Speaker 3: all good and happy. It was a national power for 414 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 3: many years. They would under Devaney and then Osborne. I 415 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 3: think they've won three Nash Natties, maybe more, maybe five, remember, 416 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 3: but they've won Natty's back in the day. So it 417 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 3: is a school that at one time was a helmet school. 418 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 3: And maybe rule is really would like to to to, 419 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 3: you know, get that school back to the thrilling days 420 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 3: of yesteryear. But it would be hard for me to 421 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 3: blame a guy for all of a sudden Penn stayed 422 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 3: Happy Valley. Well, if all of a sudden they come 423 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 3: knocking it and they're gonna have more money, and they're 424 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 3: gonna have you know, you can look at this, and 425 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,199 Speaker 3: you can look at that, and you can look at this, 426 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,160 Speaker 3: and they can just I wouldn't blame him if he left, 427 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 3: but it would be cool if he just said nope, 428 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,240 Speaker 3: what he what he said in that statement you read, 429 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 3: if he really means it. But yes, you're right, Nebraska 430 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 3: comes to town and takes on them Minnesota. That's a 431 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 3: Friday night game. It's the Gophers. It's their homecoming, right 432 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 3: or was the pre game homecoming? 433 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 2: I'm not sure. 434 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 3: I don't know. I thought the pre game was homecoming. 435 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 3: I don't, I don't. I'm on mixed Oh. When someone says, up, 436 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 3: Matt Rule play at Penn State, I did not realize. 437 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 2: Well, pause, we'll come back. 438 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 3: We got plenty to get to.

You know, they usually do it the day 457 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,439 Speaker 3: after the game. They didn't play this weekend, obviously, but 458 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 3: he still did one at twelve thirty's actually started a 459 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 3: little early, and he was asked, I think, second question, 460 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 3: who's going to start? They're going to be Wentz, They're 461 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,479 Speaker 3: gonna be McCarthy. And he even the way he answered it, 462 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 3: he knew. He was like it was almost like he 463 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 3: knew the question was coming, probably rehearsed for it, and 464 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 3: then he just kind of blabbered. He really did. It 465 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 3: was just he didn't, well, you know, both got to play. 466 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:49,959 Speaker 3: Gotta have them both ready and let me get some 467 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 3: work in and do this. And then instead of just 468 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 3: saying it's gonna be Wentz or it's gonna be McCarthy, 469 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 3: he said, you know, we still and then he remember 470 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 3: when he said something, the effect of my public answer 471 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 3: in my private answer are different, you know, playing that game, 472 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 3: right Like, if they even know it's going to be 473 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 3: McCarthy right now, well, they don't want to say it 474 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 3: this early in the going because then they're they're thinking that, 475 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 3: uh yeah, Philadelphia will start preparing for McCarthy, which is 476 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,400 Speaker 3: you know, if you're preparing for him to say, let's 477 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 3: just let's just rush him really hard every every pass 478 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 3: play because he just he he's, he's, he freezes, he's 479 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 3: dear the headlights back there. I think we both get 480 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 3: the feeling by the answer. I think it's going to 481 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 3: be once it's it's not because I don't think they 482 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 3: don't think McCarthy is the long term answer. You're three 483 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,959 Speaker 3: and two, the Packers three one and one. The kiddies 484 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 3: are foreign to it's wide open. I know there's a 485 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 3: lot of fans out there that think, you know, i've 486 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 3: seen enough put them on ice, meaning the team that 487 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 3: they're not going anywhere. Well, a lot of these players 488 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 3: that have been gone with the injuries are coming back 489 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 3: and the team's not gonna do with the fans. They're 490 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 3: not just gonna run up the white They're gonna they're 491 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,679 Speaker 3: not gonna go anti on the bit and say, well, 492 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 3: this season's going nowhere fast, we may as well see 493 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 3: what we have with McCarthy. As you had stated very 494 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 3: eloquently on a couple of occasions, there's still plenty of 495 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 3: time to see what he has right now. With three 496 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,960 Speaker 3: and two, I think they'll start Wentz. They do, and 497 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 3: let's say Wentz is Let's say Philadelphia. Philadelphi's lost two games, 498 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 3: but let's say Philadelphia rebounds, they play really well. Wentz 499 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 3: just doesn't, you know, maybe not all on him, but 500 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 3: the offense sputters. They lose. Okay, let's say they go 501 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 3: one more week with them, they take on the Chargers, 502 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 3: and let's say the Chargers are all over. Now you 503 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 3: go to three and four. Let's say the Packers continue 504 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 3: to win, they go to five and six and one 505 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 3: whatever it would be, and then you go maybe a 506 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 3: couple more injuries, and you just say, you know what, 507 00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 3: we better just go with McCarthy. Because the thing is, 508 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 3: even if we're not giving up on the year, Wentz 509 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 3: hasn't been very good, So what's the difference. But Wentz, 510 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 3: while he hasn't been brilliant, he's two and one in 511 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 3: that last drive he had in the game. Who's the 512 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 3: last game we played Cleveland. 513 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, Cleveland. 514 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 3: He looked he looked really good. So I think you 515 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 3: tend to read me. I think they're gonna go with Wentz, 516 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 3: don't you think. 517 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think today was the day where KFC he's 518 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: going to play this game. I think for as long 519 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: as he can this weekend. He's an honest guy. He's 520 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: typically usually pretty revealing, but I do think he still 521 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 1: has a little head coaching him, Like, well, one, I 522 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,120 Speaker 1: don't think you wants to throw McCarthy under the boss. 523 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 1: He wants to make a team like McCarthy's got a shot. 524 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: But also, you can also play the game with Philadelphia. 525 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: Now they got to prepare for two different quarterbacks. 526 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 2: You play. 527 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: You know, McCarthy can run a little bit more than 528 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz. Wentz is going to get the ball out 529 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 1: a little quicker, so we got to play differently defensively. 530 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: But I think you know McCarthy is practicing today. I 531 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 1: did see pictures and videos of him at practice, so okay, 532 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 1: that's a good sign from a health standpoint that he's 533 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: at least close, if not all the way back. But 534 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: I don't know how you now Carson Wentz hasn't been 535 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 1: brilliant but he's been solid, he's given yourself a chance 536 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: to win, and given where we're at in the season, 537 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: I don't know why you wouldn't go back to him 538 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 1: and give him a shot. And like I said a 539 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 1: couple of segments ago, the argument against us is, well, 540 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,199 Speaker 1: we got to see what we got. Well, to me, 541 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 1: it's you also got to see what you have with 542 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 1: Carson Wentz in the team, right like that, you still 543 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: have to see what you have with the rest of 544 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,439 Speaker 1: the team. It's not just a quarterback thing. It's do 545 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: we still have a shot at being a playoff team 546 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: and maybe making a run this year? So you still 547 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 1: have to give that a chance, just as much as 548 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 1: you need to give JJ McCarthy a chance. And if 549 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: you still need to see what you got with JJ McCarthy, 550 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 1: there's still plenty of time to do that. It's we 551 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 1: have what eleven twelve, twelve games this year, correct, So 552 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 1: you can go down the line with Wentz for another game. 553 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: You could go another four or five games, and at 554 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 1: some point, if the season's going the wrong way, you 555 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: still have plenty of time to get your look at 556 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: JJ McCarty's correct, And frankly, if that time to see 557 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: JJ and McCarthy is next year. That's a good thing 558 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: because you've done well with Carson Wentz and given yourself 559 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: a chance to. 560 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 2: Win the season. 561 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 3: That's exactly right. You summed it up quite sinkly, and 562 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 3: as I said moments ago, very very eloquently, and you 563 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 3: know what fans have to remember, they're like I had 564 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 3: the one guy is still so funny. This one sticks 565 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 3: in my head. He texted me, goes, well, you've given 566 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 3: up on McCarthy. No, I haven't given up on him. 567 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 3: I've just there's there's extenuating circumstances and the club hasn't 568 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 3: given up on Obviously, they let Donald go. They could 569 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 3: have resigned Sam Darnold, who was for the most part 570 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 3: last year brilliant. I know he had the awful game 571 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 3: against Detroit where he got a bad case of the 572 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 3: jitters and he didn't play well the Rams game, I 573 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 3: think was more on the offensive line. But they could 574 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 3: have signed him. They didn't want to. They could have 575 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 3: kept Danny Dimes. They didn't want to. Why they added 576 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 3: I think it was out of a friendship and professional courtesy. 577 00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 3: Rogers apparently came to Winter Park the new winner Parktco 578 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 3: performance Center and had a conversation with with Kevin O'Connell 579 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 3: and Kevin you know, because of it, again they have 580 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 3: a friendship or relationship of some sort. And because he 581 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 3: is a first ballot unanimous Hall of Fame or four 582 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 3: time MVP, you give him that respect, right, you say, okay, yeah, 583 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 3: I'll have you come in. They probably sat down. By 584 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 3: all accounts, Rogers wanted to play here. But the way 585 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 3: it sounds that it was like, hey, I love you. 586 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 3: You know, it would be great. You know, if if 587 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 3: if it was if if if it was a different 588 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 3: circumstance a different time, it would have been a year ago, 589 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 3: we may have entertained the possibility. We're going with our 590 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,959 Speaker 3: guy JJ McCarthy. No hard feelings, and they and they 591 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 3: went their separate ways. It's been good for Rogers. Steelers 592 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 3: are now four and one. He was very good again yesterday. 593 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 3: Now I know it's the Browns. You know who you 594 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 3: play when you play all. 595 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 2: That Rogers, I would be closer, right. 596 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 3: I was watching the highlight package up here, and again 597 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 3: you're just seeing the highlight lights, but like a couple 598 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 3: of the past, like like like the Tuddy he threw, 599 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 3: I think one might have been the last one. Yeah. Well, 600 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 3: he's rolling out right and he just kind of points. 601 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 3: He just the one thing about Rogers, I think. And 602 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 3: I don't know this because I don't talk to we 603 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 3: don't text her talk at all, even though he looks slowly, 604 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 3: but I he seems to be. 605 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 2: In a place. 606 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 3: Maybe it's the darkness retreats. Maybe it's the ayahwuas guy. 607 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 3: I think he has a gal now or did he 608 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 3: get married? Is he married? 609 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 2: I think he did, yeah, Yeah. 610 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 3: So maybe he's just in a different place because when 611 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:37,720 Speaker 3: I watch him on the field, it seems like he's 612 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 3: always he's doug growing it. He's smiling, he's laughing, and 613 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 3: maybe I've missed sometimes. I'm sure there's been the times 614 00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:47,120 Speaker 3: where he's angry, but it seems like most of the 615 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 3: time he's out there and enjoying himself. And he just 616 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 3: pointing Metcalf. He's rolling out and he goes, go there 617 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 3: we'll go. And this is while he's he's scrambling to 618 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 3: his right and he throws a perfect pass. Guy, I 619 00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 3: don't think he was Metcalf has somebody. But anyway, my 620 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 3: point is he's playing very well. He was twenty one 621 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 3: for thirty yesterday, two hundred thirty five yards, two tuddies 622 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 3: and more importantly, no interceptions. Now, if he were playing here, 623 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 3: would he be having that same kind of performance. Would 624 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 3: we be four and one right now rather than three 625 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 3: and two. It's possible we'd be five and oh, I 626 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 3: don't think so. I don't know. And if you remember, 627 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 3: the offensive line was a mess early on, and that 628 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 3: was really giving McCarthy trouble, and it was also giving. 629 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 3: That's the call I haven't been waiting for. And he 630 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 3: was also giving when some trouble as well. And you know, 631 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 3: now you watched Kansas City Detroit last night. This is 632 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 3: what I like about Gough. He knows when to get 633 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 3: rid of the ball. He doesn't take many sacks, He 634 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 3: gets rid of the ball. He throws accurately. Because he 635 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 3: was he was getting pressured on a number of occasions. 636 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 3: And yeah, that's what McCarthy's haven't learned yet. The youngest 637 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 3: I was watching another highlight package. 638 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 2: Jay Fields for the Jets. 639 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 3: I don't know if that was just the same sacks 640 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 3: they were showing over and over again, but it looked 641 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 3: like he got sacked forty six times yesterday. A couple 642 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 3: of times, yeah, and they're just bad. Where he's back 643 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 3: there and he just it's the deer in the headlights. 644 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 3: Like I said, we're McCarthy. Where he's standing, there's like, dude, 645 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 3: you gotta throw the ball or scramble. Run. You can't 646 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 3: hang on. 647 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: To it like that through for less than fifty yards yesterday, 648 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: didn't he was that what it was? I thought he 649 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: did off look it up. It was thirteen to eleven. 650 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: It's the final score. It must have been just an 651 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: awful game. 652 00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 3: And I. 653 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 2: All those games in London are awful. 654 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 3: Yeah they do. 655 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 2: They can't. 656 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: They can't move to that city full time eventually because 657 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 1: they're never good games. 658 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 3: Jause is Denver's defense considered. They're good defense. Yeah, so 659 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 3: I guess I got to give them the credit to 660 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 3: But I'm telling you what. The Fields guy, he hung 661 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 3: on to that ball and hung on to that ball and. 662 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 1: He and he fields is nine of seventeen for forty 663 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: five yards yesterday. 664 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 3: It was. It was simply awful. And I don't know 665 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 3: if that kid's got a future or not. Now again 666 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 3: it's not. Also, the Jets are just they're just terrible. 667 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 3: But I saw another stat tann to be bijon Robinson. 668 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 3: Is that his name? 669 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? Where would you consider top five or in Abauck 670 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 2: top ten? Easily? I may maybe top three, maybe number one? 671 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 3: Really that good? The numbers they showed he is providing 672 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 3: thirty nine percent of their offensive yardage. 673 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 2: They throwed him a lot too. 674 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 3: They said that number hasn't been reached since McCaffrey six 675 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 3: seven years ago. Let me ask you a question, and 676 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 3: I'm not trying to take anything away from b Jeon Robinson, 677 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 3: because as you just stated, he might be the best 678 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 3: running back in leader one of them. Is it also 679 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:55,239 Speaker 3: an indictment how bad the Falcons are offensively? Are they 680 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 3: bad offensively? I only say that just because sometimes a 681 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:02,239 Speaker 3: guy he's just give them the ball so much like 682 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 3: the passing game isn't any good or whatever the case 683 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:08,280 Speaker 3: may be, or the receiving corps week that by default 684 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 3: he gets. Again, not to take anyth away from him. 685 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 3: But is it because they have he's all they have too? 686 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 3: Or is that not the case with Atlanta. I'm not 687 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 3: paying his clos attention to footballs. I once did, so. 688 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: The thing with Bijon is it's not like they give 689 00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: him that. It's not like they hand it off to 690 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: him twenty five thirty times a game because they don't 691 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,720 Speaker 1: and in fact, like those in the fantasy football community 692 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 1: would say, wish you to hand him the ball off more. 693 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: He's really, really good. He just catches so many passes 694 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: out of the backfield. He's you know, he's he's basically 695 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 1: the next Christian McCaffrey in that regard of being elite 696 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: receiving running back. You know, the rest of the offense 697 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: was supposed to be littered with guys that had high potential. 698 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: They spent a first round pick on their wide receiver 699 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 1: Drake London, who has had moments. 700 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:57,959 Speaker 2: But has not been as great this year. 701 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 1: They spent a top pick on tight end Kyle Pitts, 702 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,440 Speaker 1: who at the time was thought to be a generational 703 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: tight end, and he had a good rookie season and 704 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 1: has has regressed ever since, though he's been I think 705 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 1: okay this year. But after that, yeah, I mean you're 706 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 1: talking about Darnell Mooney, who was just a you know, 707 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: cast off from Chicago, you know, Michael Pennick's junior I 708 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 1: think were the jury still out on him as a quarterback. 709 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 1: Obviously did well against the Vikings earlier, but other than 710 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: the game against the Vikings. I don't think he's done much, 711 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,919 Speaker 1: so I would say it's a combination of he's really 712 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 1: really good. I don't think it's Bear, it's not Cleveland 713 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:42,399 Speaker 1: Brown's receivers there, It's not the bare minimum, but it's 714 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 1: I wouldn't call it top half of the league, the 715 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: rest of the players. 716 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,280 Speaker 2: Away against the Vikings. He looked, Yeah, he looked amazing. 717 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, he was well in Our run defense has been 718 00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 3: that's the other thing, you know again, you know we 719 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 3: got guys coming back. Maybe Cashman will wake a big 720 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 3: difference there because somebody's got to because they we've just 721 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 3: been gashed with the running game. 722 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 2: Well, and this is a team that's going to run 723 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:06,879 Speaker 2: the ball. 724 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, Philadelphia, even though Saquon has had a little bit disappointed, 725 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 1: they and there's still the run game, still the bread 726 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: and butter. Jalen obviously can run it as well. What 727 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 1: is it super Bowl hangover? 728 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 3: I can't say that for because they were four and 729 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 3: oh right, So I don't see it's I don't think 730 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:26,200 Speaker 3: it's a super Bowl. 731 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: It's it's hard to ever put your finger on one thing. 732 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: I know they didn't get a new offensive coordinator. Now 733 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 1: with Detroit that didn't matter, right, So, but I do 734 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:43,320 Speaker 1: think given A. J. Brown's attitude so far the season 735 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 1: and disappointment with not getting the ball enough, there's something 736 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,319 Speaker 1: off there and it might be the philosophy of the 737 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. I even I think I heard comments from 738 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley like a week ago about and we just 739 00:36:58,440 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: got to get back to our bread and butter and 740 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: cause we got we got to be running. 741 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 2: The ball here. 742 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 1: So I know it's there. It's kind of an interesting 743 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: week for them, right. They started off four to Ozho, 744 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 1: They've lost two games in a row, They've struggled, they 745 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,919 Speaker 1: lost to a you know, a very mediocre Giants team, 746 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 1: and they're on the verge now of remember it was 747 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: it two years ago when they had that late season 748 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 1: collapse in Philadelphia. 749 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 3: They lost last four games in a row. 750 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 1: I think I feel like their game against the Vikings 751 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:28,120 Speaker 1: is going to be very telling as to how the 752 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: rest of the season goes. 753 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 3: Were you what did you make a last night's game? 754 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 3: Did is that kind of what you Chiefs? Yeah? Did 755 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:39,399 Speaker 3: you think? 756 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: Well? The thing with the Chiefs is, I know the 757 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: record wasn't great going to but Pat Mahomes has been 758 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 1: good this year, and I know the last year or 759 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: two maybe the stats have gone down a little bit. 760 00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 1: He's been really, really good. They've had zero run game, 761 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 1: their defense hasn't been as good as what we saw 762 00:37:55,800 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: last year. And he finally got Xavier Worthy back. They're 763 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: going to get Rashie Rice back now, and I think 764 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,319 Speaker 1: he's their best receiver. You said a little bit more 765 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 1: from Kelsey last night. A guy who looked like he 766 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: was ready to retire any moment. Now, he had some 767 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: moments last night, even even had one where was a 768 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 1: little yard Africa, a little yak, which has been a 769 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: struggle with him. I think Kansas City and even they're 770 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: talking about on the broadcast last night. If you heard 771 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 1: collins Worth and Erko saying, yeah, we were talking to 772 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:27,880 Speaker 1: their coaching staff and even though they're two and three, like, 773 00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 1: they're more excited about this this team and even than 774 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 1: the one that went to the Big Game last year. 775 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 1: And I think it's because they're going to have more 776 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 1: depth now on offense, especially with Rashie Rice back, And yeah, 777 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:42,439 Speaker 1: I can see the Chiefs going on a run here, 778 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 1: even though their schedule is extremely challenging. 779 00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 3: What did you make of the kiddies. They are hurting 780 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 3: the secondary. 781 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:49,120 Speaker 2: They look good though. 782 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,680 Speaker 3: I mean they have five guys out in the secondary again, 783 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 3: five guys. They went out and got the DJ Reid guy. 784 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 3: He was he's a really good cornerback. He was there, 785 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,760 Speaker 3: big free acquisition. He's out now. It seems like most 786 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 3: of these guys, it is. It's not like last year 787 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,400 Speaker 3: where they were losing guys for the season. Seems like 788 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 3: all the guys right now are going to come back. 789 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 3: They just need help in the secondary. And when you're 790 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 3: against Mahomes, he's gonna he carves up good secondaries much less. 791 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 3: There was one guy for Detroit and he had a 792 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,280 Speaker 3: pass breakup. It was his first play of the season. 793 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 3: I remember his name now. It was his first play 794 00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 3: and he broke up of Homes that would have been 795 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 3: for first unforceumate to punt or something. 796 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 1: Well, that's what seems like that that rock yes Sin Yeah, 797 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 1: he seemed to have some bad moments. 798 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:38,759 Speaker 3: Had some bad moments too, Yeah, because I don't think. 799 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,759 Speaker 1: Kind of all started with that first drive right where 800 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 1: Detroit marches down the field methodically getting whatever they want. 801 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 1: They took like ten minutes off the clock get all 802 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 1: the way to the one yard line and you end 803 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:53,319 Speaker 1: up with three points. To me, you had a chance 804 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 1: to really put a statement on that game to begin with. Well, 805 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 1: and and the play in the manner in which they 806 00:39:58,080 --> 00:39:59,320 Speaker 1: had to go backwards. 807 00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, well and the play they called it was a 808 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 3: trickeration play. It was where golf came out from under center. 809 00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 3: But as they said, and I did not know the 810 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,200 Speaker 3: rule until they said it, a quarterback can do that. 811 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 3: But he's he has to he has to get set 812 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 3: in the backfield, and he didn't. He just he never 813 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 3: stopped and he ran. 814 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 2: Then he was all it was. 815 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:21,919 Speaker 3: It was a brilliant and he almost dropped the ball 816 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 3: and then he ran into a Monross Saint Brown who 817 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:26,800 Speaker 3: was blocking the guy. I think it was a Monross 818 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 3: Saint Brown, and they still got in the end zone. 819 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 1: Then they were going to go forward again the. 820 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:37,440 Speaker 3: Tilay game penalty. So then they went ahead and kicked it, 821 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,440 Speaker 3: and then there was one of Monross Saint Brown dropped 822 00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 3: the pass and he never balls and that would have 823 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 3: been for a first down. It gave Kansas City the 824 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 3: ball and they scored again. So no shame of you. 825 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:50,760 Speaker 2: You're playing teams like Kansas City. 826 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:54,880 Speaker 3: Exactly right, But I I do think. I don't know. 827 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 2: I got a tough game this week to I mean, 828 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 2: they got, they got. 829 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 3: They play who do they play? 830 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 2: I don't recall, but yeah, they got Tampa Bay. 831 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, Tampa Bay. That's Monday Night, right, or they got 832 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 3: the Monday Night. 833 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 2: Or yeah, Monday Night at the litter Box. 834 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 3: How good was Mayfield again last night? I'm telling you, 835 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 3: I just I some guys just get better. He's good. 836 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 3: He's been so good. It's been fun to watch. 837 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:24,839 Speaker 2: We'll break, We'll come back. 838 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 3: We have one more fast paced, action pack controversial hour 839 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 3: coming next. You're in the Common Man Program on the 840 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:31,439 Speaker 3: Fan
