00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:22,520
Speaker 1: going to join us at six o'clock tonight. Normally he's

Speaker 1: so he'll be with us at six. He's in the

Speaker 1: Bay Area. He lives in San Jose. You know I

00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 1: have his address by the way, because we pay him

13
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 1: once a month. We should stop fighting. We just go

14
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: down there and knock on the.

15
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 3: Door at LIKESI at seven point thirty right after the show,

16
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 3: knock on the door and say, hey, what's for dinner?

17
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 1: How about we knock on the door at five o'clock

18
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: when he's supposed to be on the radio program and say, hey,

19
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 1: we're here to do the interview. Did you get to go?

20
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: But yeah, we'll definitely do that. We'll see him probably

21
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: down there, but he'll be on the air with us

22
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: at six o'clock tonight. Get his thoughts on the Husky

23
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: schedule that came out today, in a lot more on

24
00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: the Dogs and college football. He's obviously getting ready for

25
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl and the A the way everybody is.

26
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: So his thoughts on what we should do are are

27
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 1: there areas that we should avoid, shady areas in the

28
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: Bay Area that we should avoid really on purpose or accident.

29
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: By the way, I was taken okay, kidnapped, Yes, we're

30
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: fain somebody grabbed him. Man jay it. Anyway, he'll be

31
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 1: with us and saying, okay, here's the deal. So you

32
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: guys know, you know, and you've known this for a

33
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 1: long time. By the way, how important Sam Donald is

34
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:35,279
Speaker 1: to this radio program. Let me remind you of why

35
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: Sam Donald will always have a home on this radio program.

36
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 1: Sam Donald, good.

37
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 4: Time looking deep downfield into the end zone, touchdown Jacks,

38
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 4: Robbie Anderson, and the first td T of Sam Donald's

39
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 4: career goes forty one yards.

40
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: So when we acquired Sam Donald, there's no show in

41
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: the market who was more pleased than us.

42
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 4: Forty one yards.

43
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: We have not milked a SoundBite on this show more

44
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,119
Speaker 1: than that's correct. We got people that have bought jerseys

45
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: with the forty one yards on the back. We got

46
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: people doing impressions about But I think we put her

47
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: on the map. To be totally honest with you, nobody

48
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: even knew who she was. She gave a shout out

49
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: to the show that's wearing a Husky football broadcast. Noboddy

50
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,119
Speaker 1: even with it. I think this is the clip.

51
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 4: Right here, Dylan Morris at the offense trying to get

52
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 4: something cranked up because Utah has been shutting them down.

53
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 4: Just forty one yards of total offense. Forty one yards,

54
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 4: that's it on thirteen plays.

55
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, she knew. Somebody told her before that game that

56
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: we and now it's become like the Stockholm syndrome. Like

57
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 1: I couldn't stand her when she first started out. Now

58
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: I love her. Now I love hearing her on the air.

59
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,679
Speaker 1: Anytime she's on, I always watch her. You know how

60
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 1: important Sam Darnold is to this radio show, so we

61
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: were we were pleased this punch when they acquired Sam Darnold.

62
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: We were ready to move on from Gino Smith. All Right,

63
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: We've made plenty of terrible takes on this radio program.

64
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: We've missed on plenty of opinions on this radio program,

65
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,519
Speaker 1: but we feel like it is now time for people

66
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: to use their voices, show their faces, admit their faults,

67
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 1: and cleanse their souls and admit they were wrong about

68
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: Sam Darnald. Starting with a guest from ESPN okay that

69
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: joins us over the summer up until the draft. We

70
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 1: love mena times, but my god, was she way off

71
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 1: base with this take.

72
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 5: I think this is a drum incredibly risky bet by

73
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 5: Seattle because it essentially they're betting that that exchange is

74
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 5: going to work out for them and get them out

75
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 5: of purgatory. Chris, I am very skeptical of that, and

76
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 5: I like Darnald, I want to be clear, but this

77
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 5: is not a good situation for him.

78
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: She also doubled down on that, by the way, on

79
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: social media and said how great a deal it was

80
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: for the Raiders to get Geno Smith. I mean, she

81
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 1: was over two in that regard. She loved herself some Gino,

82
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: There's no question about that. Now she is getting dragged

83
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: across social media. Man, now that Sam Darnold's made the

84
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, that old tweet from a year ago on

85
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: Earth she's coming getting resurfaced, man, I mean she is

86
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: getting like hopefully she's getting paid by Twitter, because she's

87
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 1: making thousands of dollars this month. Lots of interest just

88
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: based on that tweet. On the other take that we

89
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 1: have to get to, and this is from December twenty ninth,

90
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: by the way, all right, December twenty ninth. The other

91
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,119
Speaker 1: take we have to get to months ago is from

92
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: none other than our new ten to one host, Oh boy,

93
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 1: Mark James.

94
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 6: The thing that scares me the most, more than anything,

95
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 6: than anything is the play of Sam freaking Donald And

96
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 6: I called them HTM the human turnover machine because that's

97
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 6: what he's been. And he turned the ball over twice yesterday.

98
00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 6: He leads the NFL in turnovers this year, and that's

99
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 6: really bad.

100
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: What was the date on that again, by the way,

101
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: December twenty ninth. It was the day after the Carolina

102
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 1: the Carolina game, So Carolina one that game. They won

103
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 1: that game twenty seven to ten. He threw for one

104
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: hundred and forty seven yards an interception, and he lost

105
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 1: a fumble in that game. He had two fumbles, pretty

106
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: lost one. So that's our own Mark James. So you've

107
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: heard from Mina Kimes. You've heard from Mark James. And

108
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: by the way, I texted Mark to give him a

109
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: chance to defend himself. He wants to jump on the air.

110
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: He's more than welcome. Okay, So not just those two,

111
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: but we also now have people that are calling the

112
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: talkback button on the iHeart app and admitting their faults.

113
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: Let's let's hear from a few of these people. Jackson

114
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 1: with their mia Culpa's on, Sam Darnold.

115
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 7: Sam, this is Chip here, lifelong Seahawks fan. I'll admit

116
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 7: after the four interception game, I was done. I said

117
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 7: something to the effect of, unless this guy comes comes

118
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 7: back and leads us to the Super Bowl, I'm done.

119
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 7: Who's our next quarterback? Well, you shut me up, and

120
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 7: we have the answers to who's our next idiot me,

121
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 7: you're cool, I'm not. You're tall, I'm short, you're pretty,

122
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 7: I'm not. I was wrong, you were right. Well done,

123
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 7: Good job, Thank you for shutting me up. Go Hawks,

124
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 7: Let's go get number two.

125
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: Baby whoo got He sounds like Adam Sandler and Billy Madison. Right,

126
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 1: you're smart, I'm stupid, I'm ugly, you're beautiful. That's what

127
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: he was going for that is perfect. Man, good job.

128
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: What's the guy's name again, Chip or my way off

129
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 1: on that? It was well, good job, whatever your name was.

130
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: That is how you offer an apology on the air.

131
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: Well done.

132
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 3: Absolutely because and this is good, This is cathartic because

133
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 3: the twelves need to be unified going into the super Bowl.

134
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 3: We can't have any more fragmenting of the twelves because

135
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 3: the Sam Donald conversation has fragmented this fan base all

136
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 3: season long. And unfortunately, as we went further and further

137
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 3: into the season, it got less and less contentious because

138
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 3: the people that were anti Sam Sam Donald realized they

139
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 3: were on the wrong side.

140
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: Well, the Geno Smith apology tour really should be led

141
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,359
Speaker 1: locally by Jackson Bevans. I mean he's the guy that

142
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 1: really was, you know, kind of leading the charge for

143
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: all that, right, I mean, this was this was tearing

144
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 1: this fan base apart over the offseason. Definitely big time.

145
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: All right, what's next?

146
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 8: Not afraid to admit it, boys, Definitely thought Darnold was

147
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 8: going to be trash. Thought our season was suck when

148
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 8: we made that deal. Talking to a co worker a

149
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 8: couple of days before the first game, thought we were

150
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 8: closer to the Cardinals than to the Rams of the Niners.

151
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 1: Even late in the season.

152
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 8: Man had a tweet queued up that I had to

153
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 8: send in delete after that pick against the Rams, where

154
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 8: you know the old test, can you close your eyes

155
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 8: and imagine this guy winning the Super Bowl? Well, I

156
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 8: think I freaking can now.

157
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: Boys, let's go absolutely and at this point you'd be

158
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: you'd be shocked a little bit right, surprised if Sam

159
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: Darnald did not win the Super Bowl. I mean I

160
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: was on with Fox Sports Radio with Aaron Torrez the

161
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: night before the game with the Rams, and the guy

162
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: who was doing the show was like, you know how

163
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: many people out there are waiting for samar the fall

164
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: flat on his ass? And I'm like, why do you

165
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 1: even ask that? Why because he had one bad playoff

166
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: game last year against the Rams? Is that why you

167
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: were bringing that up? He's like, well, I just think

168
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: there's a narrative. Yeah, there's a narrative. That's stupid. So

169
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: let me ask you this, how how many Seahawks fans

170
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: right now going into this Ram, this this game with

171
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: the Patriots, how many of them have confidence in Sam

172
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: Donald versus how many had confidence heading into the NFC Championship.

173
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 3: Game, I think the percentage has gone from seventy to

174
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 3: over ninety five.

175
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: Over ninety five wow, Wow, Okay, that's a heck of

176
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 1: a JOBT. Yeah, I mean you might be right.

177
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 9: I was with you on seventy, but I think that's

178
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:35,199
Speaker 9: seventy when he went about eighty.

179
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: I just think there was a big question mark that

180
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: a lot of Seahawk fans had heading into the playoffs

181
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: about Sam Darnald. But he has answered the bell. He's

182
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,679
Speaker 1: answered the bell twice in two games against divisional opponents. Now,

183
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: can we admit though, this is the best defense he'll

184
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 1: see in the playoffs? Yeah? This Patriot defense? Right, So

185
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: that really is the question. Then, like we said earlier,

186
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: what does Mike Rabel have up as sleeve Jackson that

187
00:08:58,240 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 1: Sam Darnald has not seen?

188
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 9: Yeah, there's clearly gonna be a lot. I mean, Variabel's

189
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 9: obviously you can't get to fourteen and three if you

190
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 9: aren't a pretty darn good football T. And the Patriots

191
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 9: have a pretty darn good defense led by that guy.

192
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 9: For me, I think the other way to look at

193
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 9: this is how much is Donald actually going to need

194
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 9: to do? Because I mean, if we're if we're talking

195
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,680
Speaker 9: MVP picks, Kenneth Walker might be my money bet right now.

196
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 9: I'm not sure what odds that is because I just

197
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 9: look at the Patriots. Are they gonna score more than fourteen?

198
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 9: I really don't think so. So how much are you

199
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,680
Speaker 9: gonna have to lean on Sam Darnald in this game?

200
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 1: I'm not sure.

201
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 3: Just lean on Canine because he's been great. I think

202
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,559
Speaker 3: that's gonna be one of the questions we're gonna ask

203
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 3: multiple times over the next week and a half. What

204
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,200
Speaker 3: style of game will we want? Because usually the better team,

205
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 3: the more talented team, wants to maximize possessions. We want

206
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 3: an up and down game.

207
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 1: We want a game that.

208
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 3: The winner scores thirty because we don't think the Patriots

209
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 3: have a chance to score thirty. Because if you play

210
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 3: in that conservative hey they're only gonna score fourteen mode,

211
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 3: there's a great chance it's seventeen fourteen with three minutes

212
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 3: left and the Patriots have the ball, and you've kept

213
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 3: them into the game because you've played that way.

214
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think these are two very good rushing defenses,

215
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,599
Speaker 1: by the way, in Seattle and the Patriots. So I

216
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: don't know. I think it's gonna be a lower scoring game.

217
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: I'm with Jackson, though, I just got a fundamental belief

218
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: that the Patriots are gonna have a hard time moving

219
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: the ball. All right, one more couple more, go ahead,

220
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: Now I go lie to you.

221
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 10: I from the very goal, I was like, no, we

222
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 10: don't get that Carolina and.

223
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,079
Speaker 11: New York Jets Samuel.

224
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 12: But we did it.

225
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 11: No, we did not. We didn't even get a Minnesota

226
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 11: version of Samuel. We got the Seattle version of the

227
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 11: Ginger Ninja.

228
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:53,199
Speaker 1: Let's go baby. Sixty touchdowns, eighty three hundred yards passing

229
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: in the last two years from Minnesota and Seattle. And

230
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 1: he is what did I say? His record was thirty

231
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: and seven in his last thirty seven starts. This guy is,

232
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: I mean, he is on a freaking role right now.

233
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: And I asked you, guys earlier this week or even

234
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: last week. I think I said, if he wins this

235
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: game on Sunday and gets you to a Super Bowl,

236
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,559
Speaker 1: do you want to maybe think about ripping the contract

237
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: up and extending this guy right now before the price

238
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 1: goes up after one more year of pretty good football.

239
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 3: I would certainly consider it.

240
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, because it's only twenty seven, twenty eight years old, eight.

241
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 3: Years of age.

242
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 1: Yeah.

243
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 3: But the one thing the trend we're seeing, like all

244
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 3: these teams that are going deep in the playoffs, all

245
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 3: of them have quarterbacks that are either on their rookie

246
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 3: deals or on team friendly contracts. Even Matthew Stafford cap

247
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 3: hit this year was in the mid teens. In the NFL.

248
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 3: The top end paid quarterbacks are not making the super Bowl.

249
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, well give him, give him a ten million dollar jump.

250
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: I love it, you know, make him, make him the

251
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 1: twelve highest paid quarterback in the NFL. Love it. I'm

252
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 1: just saying this. If you wait on this and he

253
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: goes out and does this again next year, what are

254
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: you paying him at the end of the in March

255
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: or February of twenty seven, what are you paying him

256
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 1: then versus what you'd pay him in a month from now?

257
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,439
Speaker 1: That's right? Could you save fifty million over the life

258
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:12,719
Speaker 1: of a.

259
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 3: Contract and then, And what's got a better chance Sam

260
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,200
Speaker 3: Darnold falling on his face in twenty twenty six or

261
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 3: him being about as good as he was this year.

262
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 1: I think the odds are that he's this is what

263
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 1: he is. This is what he is, and this has

264
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 1: been almost forty games. Now, I think he's proven that

265
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 1: he's figured something out. He's found the fountain of whatever

266
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: the hell that fountain is, and he's figured it out.

267
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: All right, let's keep going on the Sam Donald apology tour.

268
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: Who's next? Who's next that wants to cleanse their soul?

269
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: I do not think picking up Sam Donald was a

270
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 1: bad move.

271
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,559
Speaker 7: I thought Gino wanted too much money, and I thought

272
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 7: it was quite smart to pick up Sam Donald as

273
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,199
Speaker 7: a cheaper stopgap.

274
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 1: But I apologize because he has been much more than

275
00:12:55,160 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: a stopgap. Yeah. I mean, it's really amazing, man, what

276
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 1: this guy's done. And I wonder what this trend is

277
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 1: of these kind of I don't know what the word

278
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 1: is these cast offs, if you will, Daniel Jones, Sam Darnold, Baker,

279
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,880
Speaker 1: Mayfield Hell. Even in some ways Gino Smith, right, when

280
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 1: Gino Smith took over for Russell, he was a career

281
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: backup at that point, but he was given a shot,

282
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: and because Pete Carroll gave him a shot, he made

283
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 1: like seventy million dollars, right, he made money. He never

284
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: never would have thought two years prior to Dick he

285
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 1: would have made So what is it? And Who's We've

286
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 1: I've asked you this before. Who's the next one? Right,

287
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: is Jimmy Garoppolo get a second chance with somebody? Is

288
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: there a backup somewhere else that gets a second shot

289
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 1: with somebody else? Because there's been this trend? Now, who's

290
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:39,199
Speaker 1: the Who's the next guy?

291
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 9: It's obviously Zach Wilson. Yeah, Zach Wilson's gonna go Zack

292
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 9: because he's was what number three pick overall? He's Sam

293
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 9: Donald Part two?

294
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 3: What about Mac Jones?

295
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mac Jones, Smack Jones, totally, all those guys. I mean,

296
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: there's such a lack of quality quarterbacks in the NFL

297
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 1: that one of these guys is going to I guarantee

298
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,319
Speaker 1: you one of them, right, one of them next year

299
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,440
Speaker 1: ends up getting a shot, and they end up for me. Well,

300
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: all right, let's see who's next on the Sam Donald

301
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 1: Multi city Apology Tour.

302
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 13: My thought at the time of getting Sam Donald was

303
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 13: can't be worse than Gino. So, I mean, I wasn't wrong,

304
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 13: but I am sorry that I wasn't more optimistic.

305
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 14: Hell going to the super Bowl?

306
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 11: Now? Boys?

307
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 3: Uh, Sam Donald's still getting disrespect.

308
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: I'm looking here him. Thank you for admitting your faults.

309
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 3: I'm looking here at the ESPN QBR leaders for the

310
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five postseason. He's not even listed, like they

311
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 3: forgot to put him.

312
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 1: Why is that. There's got to be there's got to

313
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 1: be a statistical reason for that.

314
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 3: I'm clicking on QBR and I see Love, Young, Alan Nicks,

315
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 3: William Stafford, Party May Hurt Stroud, Lawrence Herbert Rogers. Every

316
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,440
Speaker 3: thirteen quarterbacks. How many teams made the playoffs?

317
00:14:55,800 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: Fourteen? Yeah, well he's uh, I'm gonna well he's number

318
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: five in yards, so he's right there. I'm just going

319
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: to their QBR. QBR is seventy eight point one.

320
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,640
Speaker 3: That would put him at number two behind Jordan Love.

321
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 1: Played in one game. By the way, I'm looking at

322
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: it right here, he's listening to all this.

323
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 3: No, no, no, that's the QBR. If you just organize it

324
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 3: by QBR Advanced Analytics. Yeah, that he's not listed.

325
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: Well, he's right there. I just did it.

326
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 3: This is a different screen, Dave. That's the that you

327
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 3: just went. You just went passing leaders, you go the QBR.

328
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: Now he's on this one. I mean they're they're ranking

329
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: him by QBR. Here, he's got the number two QBR

330
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: in the NFL playoffs, but he's only played one. We

331
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: played two games, all right, we got time for one more.

332
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 9: This isn't exactly then apology, but it is funny, all right.

333
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 15: Here the message for John Schneider about the whole Sam

334
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 15: Darnold acquisition. Just when I thought you couldn't get any dumb,

335
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 15: you go out to do something like this and.

336
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 3: You don't want to go to asmen.

337
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: I love it. Oh God, you think you think Schneider

338
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 1: actually saw this, by the way coming You think he

339
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 1: saw this comment with Sam Darnold, No, you don't think so.

340
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 9: Just bringing the game manager and hopefully lean on the defense.

341
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: I think he saw.

342
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 3: I think he thought he would get the guy that

343
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 3: he saw last year. Yeah, and Sam's been the guy

344
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 3: that he was last year, right, right? Has he been

345
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 3: a lot better? I don't know if he's been better

346
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 3: than he was.

347
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: He's been better at taking sacks, that's for sure. Part

348
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: of it's the line that we have versus the line

349
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: the Vikings had. But yeah, I mean I think there's

350
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 1: some numbers that say he's been better. But we would

351
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 1: have taken that guy last year, absolutely right. I mean

352
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 1: that guy was in the MVP conversation. That guy got

353
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: a brand new fact contract. If you would have said

354
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: to me over the off season in August when camp

355
00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: was wrapping up, you're gonna get the same guy that

356
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: you got in Minnesota, I'd say, where do I saw him?

357
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Absolutely?

358
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 3: I don't think we were going to get the guy

359
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 3: we got that we saw in Minnesota. I thought we'd

360
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 3: did a less you know, a seventy five percent of

361
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 3: that guy.

362
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 1: Just for the record, guys, I did text Mark James

363
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: to give him a shot to jump on the air

364
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,120

Speaker 1: that you don't know about that game. So he was

385
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 1: exhausted during that game. He was supposed to get Saturday night.

386
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 1: He didn't get into Sunday morning, by the way. Yeah,

Speaker 1: dollars gift card to simply Seeattle dot com. I gotta

407
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 1: tell you so. Earlier today we called humellon on the

408
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 1: air to inform him that he's been elected to the

409
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: Pacific Northwest Football Hall of Fame. Had some fun with him,

410
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 1: and we asked about Drake May's shoulder injury, which he's

411
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,000
Speaker 1: not overly concerned about but says, you know something to

412
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,120
Speaker 1: keep an eye and blah blah blah. And then you,

413
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: I think, was the one that asked would you rather

414
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 1: play Drake May or another backup quarterback of the Patriots,

415
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 1: And I think the backup is actually Josh Dobbs and

416
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: DeVito's the third guy. I don't know how they'll parse

417
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: that out for the game. I think Dobbs is the

418
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: backup guy. And I almost fell out of my freaking

419
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 1: chair when I heard what you said that you'd rather

420
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 1: face Drake May.

421
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 3: I did it with trepidation, but then you agreed with me.

422
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:45,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, I think you're both nuts.

423
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 3: Okay, I get it. I just and maybe people would

424
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 3: forget ten years down the road. But I just don't

425
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 3: think the Seahawks would get the credit they deserve. Okay

426
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,439
Speaker 3: if they went out and beat Josh Dobbs or Tommy

427
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 3: DeVito twenty seven to three in a boring Super Bowl.

428
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: Let me ask you a question. Yes, you have been

429
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: the one guy here that doesn't give a damn what

430
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 1: people think on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram. Whatever you do your thing,

431
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 1: you move on. Why do you care if people give

432
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,040
Speaker 1: you credit? You're the Super Bowl champion? I get it.

433
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: So what you're telling me that you would rather face

434
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 1: a guy who probably will finish in minimum the top

435
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:34,119
Speaker 1: three of the MVP race versus Josh Dobbs, Yes, I

436
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: would much rather beat him than Josh Dobbs. If you

437
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,880
Speaker 1: can guarantee me to Oks win the game, sign me up.

438
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 1: I get taken every time. I guess I'm not scared

439
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 1: of drink may at all, Not at all. Am I

440
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 1: scared to drink May? But if I can increase my chances, Like,

441
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 1: let me ask you this question, Guys, the line's four

442
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:52,840
Speaker 1: and a half five right now, right what does it

443
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:57,159
Speaker 1: go to? If Josh Dobbs is starting almost ten? Okay,

444
00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 1: then that is a significant difference. That means Vegas things

445
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,160
Speaker 1: that you've almost like doubled your chances of winning this game.

446
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:05,520
Speaker 1: Why would you not want that?

447
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 3: I understand that, And that's why I said it. I

448
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 3: said it with trepidation. I said it with trepidation. I

449
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 3: just I just feel I guess the scary part of

450
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 3: this is it's I guess that's how little respect I

451
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 3: have for the Patriots.

452
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 1: Oh no, God, that just made me. I just had

453
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 1: a little come out here.

454
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 3: And that's not to say and that's not to say

455
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 3: that I think the Seahawks are going to blow the

456
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 3: Patriots out. I think it's going to be kind of

457
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,880
Speaker 3: the type of game that Jackson talked about. I think

458
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 3: it's going to be ugly. I think it's going to

459
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:38,879
Speaker 3: be low scoring. I think the Seahawks are gonna have

460
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 3: a tough time scoring on them. But I think the

461
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,919
Speaker 3: Patriots are going to have a much tougher time scoring

462
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 3: on the Seahawks. Scoring on the page.

463
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 1: But what you are describing is a game that a

464
00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: bounce or two here that's right, right, that's right, could

465
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 1: go the wrong way. So and look, I get it.

466
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you know somebody's gonna call their tech man.

467
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,360
Speaker 1: You're scared of mat No, I'm not. I just want

468
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,880
Speaker 1: to give the Hawks every advantage I can give him. Now,

469
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 1: Drake May's gonna play. Obviously, it'll probably be fine, right,

470
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,119
Speaker 1: the show is not gonna be a problem. But if

471
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 1: you came to me before the game and said, may man,

472
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: I can push this little button right here, and a

473
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 1: hole in the ground will open up and Drake May

474
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 1: will fall into it and you can play Josh Dobbs,

475
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: I'd say, where do I side? That's right?

476
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 3: And that's why I said with trepidation. But at least,

477
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,360
Speaker 3: I mean, he at least validated the point. Whether we're

478
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 3: right or wrong, he at least validated the point. It's

479
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 3: not just me being the idiot.

480
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 1: Jackson. How about you talk about you?

481
00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,919
Speaker 9: I just way in here similar thought to you, Softy,

482
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 9: is like it's Josh Dobbs. We're not talking about a

483
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 9: you know, he's he's athletic, like he can he can

484
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 9: get out and he can run. But we're not talking

485
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 9: about a Lamar Jackson or Kyler Murray. Right, Kyler Murray. Frankly,

486
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 9: I'd rather Kyler Murray start than than Josh Dobbs maybe.

487
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 9: But like, listen, we're not talking about a really talented

488
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 9: athletic quarterback. We're talking about somebody who's been a career

489
00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:58,719
Speaker 9: backup for a reason.

490
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:00,439
Speaker 1: So and the question is who's scares you?

491
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:00,680
Speaker 18: Right?

492
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 1: The question is who really scares you on this football team?

493
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 1: Like if it was the Buffalo Bills, Josh Allen, Okay,

494
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:11,640
Speaker 1: get it, whatever, Great, who scares you? Chris? Christian Gonzalez

495
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 1: scares you? You know, you know my Christian Gonzales highlight.

496
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: You know what that is when Jalen macmillan ripped an

497
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: interception away from him at Austin Stadium, remember that in

498
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two when he caught the ball and macmillan said,

499
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 1: give me to me. So that is my favorite highlight.

500
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:32,280
Speaker 1: But does a defensive back really freak you out that much?

501
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 3: Well, when your best offensive player is a wide receiver, right,

502
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 3: But it's not like we've relied on JSN to win

503
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 3: a ton of games. We have won a ton of

504
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 3: games where JSN has done not very much. Now, if

505
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 3: we don't have JSN last week, we aren't talking about

506
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 3: the Super.

507
00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:48,439
Speaker 1: Bowl right right now.

508
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 3: So the Rams don't have anybody that could even come

509
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,639
Speaker 3: close to showing slowing JSN down the Patriots.

510
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,439
Speaker 1: Due. Yeah, I just don't know with this defense and

511
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: the way they're right now. And I understand that the

512
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: Rams kind of for a little bit in that game,

513
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,639
Speaker 1: had their way. But if you would have told me

514
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,160
Speaker 1: before the game, the Rams are going to score twenty seven,

515
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 1: I think I would have said, fine, right. I mean,

516
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 1: that's a team that averages thirty one points in game,

517
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: and they scored twenty seven. They were shut out in

518
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, They played great in the red zone,

519
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,159
Speaker 1: the hockey defense was great in the red zone. And

520
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 1: now you're talking about a Patriot offense that is pretty good.

521
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: But they don't have a Matt Stafford, they don't have

522
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,120
Speaker 1: a Puka. Nakua. Diggs is good, but he's not Nikua,

523
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 1: There's no question about that. Trayvon Henderson, does he really

524
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 1: keep you up at night. I mean, I don't know

525
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 1: if there's anybody on that football team that freaks me out,

526
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 1: which is why I really believe that the matchup of

527
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 1: the minds of Rabel and McDonald on either side of

528
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 1: the ball. Last week it was the OC versus the DC.

529
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 1: Now it's almost what DC comes up with a better

530
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 1: game plan.

531
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 9: And listen, I mean, I'm just going I don't know

532
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:55,639
Speaker 9: too much about Christian Gonzalez in terms of how he

533
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,919
Speaker 9: He's obviously a good player, but I'm reading right off

534
00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 9: of the Patriots website that he often shadows the opponent's

535
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 9: number one wide receiver and so whatever, you know, he's

536
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:05,639
Speaker 9: gonna be on JSN.

537
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 1: Great cool.

538
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 9: We also have Rashid Shahita speed Demon, and we have

539
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 9: a Cooper Cup of former Super Bowl MVP good Luck

540
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 9: New England.

541
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 1: Well that's the.

542
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,040
Speaker 3: Thing because in the first half of the season it

543
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 3: was all JSN.

544
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 1: In the second half of the.

545
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 3: Season for the Seahawks, these other guys have stepped up

546
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:21,760
Speaker 3: and look look at last game. We had three different

547
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 3: touchdown passes to three different guys.

548
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I just again, this has been it's

549
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,439
Speaker 1: kind of a no name football team that won fourteen games, right, Like,

550
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:35,719
Speaker 1: is there a less star studded team in the NFL

551
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: that's won fourteen games? And the Patriots have? Honestly, I mean, look,

552
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 1: I know Drake May's turning into a decent name and

553
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: he's gonna be in the MVP conversation. This kind of

554
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,119
Speaker 1: feels like one of those years where the guy that

555
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: finishes third or fourth in the MVP versus the guy

556
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,680
Speaker 1: that finishes eighth or ninth in the MVP. There's not

557
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 1: much of a difference between those guys this year versus

558
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 1: previous years. Like normally there's three or four guys in

559
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: the top and then a big, gigantic cliff to the

560
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 1: rest of the.

561
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 3: NFL butt that Carolina Panthers team to win like fifteen

562
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 3: to one of them, like Cam Newton nobody.

563
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 1: It really feels like a non descript Patriot team, right,

564
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: And maybe they say the same thing about the Hawks.

565
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: They may they may say the same thing about us.

566
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 1: Outside of Jackson Smith and Jigba. I mean, what is

567
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: there really on offense? That's right? Like Cooper Cups a

568
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,360
Speaker 1: name guy, but he's not playing like the Cooper Cup

569
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: of old. That's yeah, but he's not a superstar. He's

570
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: not a he's not he's not a gigantic you know,

571
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey two thousand total yards MVP candidates.

572
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 3: Correct, it's not but the people that the nation has

573
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 3: only watched the Seahawks in like four games, the Rams

574
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 3: game a few weeks ago, the two Niners games, and

575
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 3: this last week's game, and Ken has been unbelieved.

576
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: He's been good, but he still is not a name

577
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: that everybody around the NFL would say that guy's one

578
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 1: of the top five running backs in the NFL. You

579
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: mean he's This is a very non disc ripped super Bowl,

580
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: like when people talk about it being a boring Super Bowl.

581
00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 1: We'll see how the game goes. The game may be

582
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 1: a classic, but from a preview perspective and a promotion perspective,

583
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 1: like who do you go to? Right, Like, we're in

584
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 1: New York and I dude, this photo. Look at this.

585
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: I was on with Hot Blogger on this podcast this morning.

586
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 1: We're talking about New York City being on Radio Row.

587
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,879
Speaker 1: Remember when the New York media was ripping Richard Sherman

588
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,919
Speaker 1: because he wasn't opening up his mouth. Everybody wanted Sherman

589
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: to start talking, and it never did what does that

590
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: headline say.

591
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 3: Right there mouth the board.

592
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: That's day two of Radio row and New York Media

593
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: was pissed because Sherman wasn't saying anything.

594
00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 9: Well, this goes to the conversation we had yester day.

595
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:38,199
Speaker 14: What day is it?

596
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 9: So we were talking about these yesterday on how is

597
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:41,880
Speaker 9: this a boring football team?

598
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 18: Right?

599
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 9: And I think you can say yeah, But I mean

600
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 9: what I said was, I think it's just an overall

601
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 9: sports thing where just you look at various I listened

602
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 9: to a lot of press conferences, a lot of press conferences,

603
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 9: and overall, over the course of just sports, the athletes

604
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 9: just are more and more and more boring, and the

605
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 9: ones who speak out are the ones. Now we've hit

606
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 9: huge lights on cal Rawley said, let's go wait in

607
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,280
Speaker 9: the whole FN thing. Oh my god. Right, JP Crawford

608
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 9: comes out and did what he did with the Torontogs.

609
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 9: Oh my god. So you have the few athletes that

610
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 9: do speak out now put it in a massive line, right,

611
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 9: But overall, athletes today cross sports are more robotic and

612
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 9: that will lead to more boring team.

613
00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:25,640
Speaker 1: You know. It's funny, by the way, this quote here

614
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 1: from McDonald from after the game on Sunday did not care.

615
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,600
Speaker 1: It's almost like he had to force it to come

616
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 1: out right, like we did not care.

617
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:34,120
Speaker 11: Well, we just.

618
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,800
Speaker 1: Doesn't talk like that. He had to force that God's

619
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 1: mouth did not care.

620
00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 3: But you know who also was boring? The first Seahawks

621
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 3: Super Bowl team was boring. Hm, the hassleback Sean Alexander

622
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 3: team was very boring.

623
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: And there weren't a lot of big names on that

624
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 1: defense either.

625
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 3: But then Jeremy Stevens decided to open up his damn

626
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 3: high holes right, and that got all the attentions. Personality,

627
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 3: the big story.

628
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 1: That week was Bettest. That's and that's what Stevens got

629
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 1: ripped for because it was a homecoming for Jerome Bettis

630
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 1: because he's from Detroit, and Student's like, we're gonna ruin

631
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 1: his homecoming. I'm like, god, dude, what are you doing? Man?

632
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 1: Come on, I don't know. I mean, if we weren't

633
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 1: Seahawk fans or Patriot fans, I think we'd be singing

634
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 1: the same stuff. This is kind of it's kind of on.

635
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 3: There's not much going onomes, there's no brand that almost

636
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,440

703
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: was the guy who went on the air at the

704
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,479
Speaker 1: end of the two thousand and seven Husky football season

705
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 1: and said, I want to bring Tyrone Willingham back in

706
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight. You know what Tyrone Willingham did

707
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 1: in two thousand and eight. He lost every effing game

708
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 1: he went, oh to twelve. I'm also the guy that

709
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: wanted to fire Loop Panela after the nineteen ninety nine season,

710
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:00,680
Speaker 1: and then two years later you want one hundred and

711
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 1: sixteen games and went to the ALCS. So I've been there.

712
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 1: But what was it about Sam Darnold that made you

713
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 1: kind of, let's face it, temporarily a little bit jump

714
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: off his wagon.

715
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 11: Let me jump off the like the kind of scorching him.

716
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean, well, look at his play.

717
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 1: He hasn't turned the ball over in the postseason. He's

718
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 1: been great.

719
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 11: He led the league in turnovers in the regular season, right,

720
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 11: I mean did, Let's be honest, he did do They

721
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 11: had more than Geno Smith, not interceptions, but turnovers. But

722
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 11: since you go back to the he's been flawless in.

723
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 1: The postseason, absolutely perfect.

724
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 11: He's done nothing wrong in the postseason. This is the

725
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 11: Sam Darnald of John Schneider envision coming here. And what

726
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 11: can you say? It's just if you start, you know,

727
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,920
Speaker 11: the game that really got me SOFTI was at Carolina.

728
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 11: Now he only had one interception that game, but I

729
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 11: laeve there's also might have been a fumble. There could

730
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 11: have been a fumble.

731
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 1: Did he did right?

732
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 10: And it's like, if you've got guys, this is a

733
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 10: generational defense. Just don't as I call it, b J Stroud,

734
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,320
Speaker 10: don't be d J Stroud.

735
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:12,360
Speaker 1: I call him BJ.

736
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 18: Because BJ suck.

737
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 10: So I that's what c J Stroud. This should be

738
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 10: Houston in Seattle. This should be the Texans and Seahawks,

739
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 10: a rematch from ALCS Game seven Monday night, October twentieth.

740
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 10: And it's not because d J Shroud sucks.

741
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 18: That's but Sam.

742
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 19: Donald turned it around. I like Sam Donald. I wanted

743
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 19: him to be the guy, but it just came a

744
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 19: point where it was like and then the four interception

745
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 19: game at LA. But he's turned it around. He's the reason.

746
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 11: By the way, if Sam Donald doesn't go round versus

747
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 11: round versus the MVP on Sunday, the Seahawks are not

748
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 11: going to the Super.

749
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: Bowl, right right, that's it. He's the reason they're going.

750
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 11: Like he got the Seahawks to the Super Bowl. Let's

751
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 11: be real call it, like we see, I'll eat the crow.

752
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 18: I'm happy to eat the crow.

753
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 1: Yeah. By the way, I disagree on BJ's by the way,

754
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 1: I like, go ahead.

755
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 3: Mark, I remember the day I was I was listening

756
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 3: to to that day, that the whole segment when you

757
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,880
Speaker 3: were talking about Darnald, and I honestly thought, like the

758
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 3: first ten twelve minutes it was, you know, you just

759
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 3: kind of you put it out there. We were kind

760
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 3: of calm, and then it kind of turned into like

761
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 3: almost this like vitriol against Sam Donnell. You're like, I'm

762
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 3: done with Sam Darnald.

763
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: I was like, WHOA.

764
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,440
Speaker 3: So, I mean, man, where did the kind of deep

765
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:39,360
Speaker 3: seated anger vitriol come from from a guy that obviously

766
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 3: everyone thinks is the nicest guy in the world. And

767
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 3: it actually had a really good season to that point.

768
00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 11: He was dude, at one point he was six in

769
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,319
Speaker 11: the NFL and passer rating, he was unbelievable, Like.

770
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 1: He wasn't even an MVP.

771
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,359
Speaker 20: Candidate, and then he just kept turning it over and

772
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:56,520
Speaker 20: over and over, and it was like, you know, and

773
00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 20: I believe against the game against UH Minnesota, No, he

774
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 20: didn't have any I don't think he had any turnovers

775
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:04,720
Speaker 20: in Aki, but the Carolina game.

776
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,120
Speaker 11: Was the one that put me over the top because

777
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 11: I was like, man, don't race this defense. All you

778
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 11: gotta do is I've said, Sam Darnold is driving the Bugatti,

779
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 11: just put your hands out ten to two, keep your

780
00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 11: eyes on the Rogan, don't test.

781
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 1: That's it, and that's what he's dryn.

782
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 10: This defense is, this is gonna go down.

783
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 20: This is the best defense we've seen in the NFL

784
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 20: since the twenty fifteen Denver Broncos.

785
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, well you're saying you didn't want Donald to

786
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 1: end up like Jordan Belfort and Wolf of Wall Street

787
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 1: with his Lamborghini, right, just all smash the price. Yeah,

788
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:40,560
Speaker 1: but you know, I've asked this before and I want

789
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:42,880
Speaker 1: to get both your thoughts on this. Guys, Mark James

790
00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:47,720
Speaker 1: with us. He's got twenty turnovers on the year, fourteen picks,

791
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 1: six fumbles. Six of them came over two games against

792
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 1: Arizona and the Rams. He threw four picks against the Rams. Actually, no,

793
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 1: seven of those twenty one third came in two games.

794
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 1: Is this really about a guy with a turnover problem

795
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: or a guy that just lost his mind for eight quarters?

796
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,320
Speaker 11: You know, I look at the totality of the season

797
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,879
Speaker 11: and he right, he was great early in the year,

798
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 11: but there was that stretch and it was like, you know,

799
00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 11: the thing that amazes me about it was that even

800
00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 11: though the four interceptions against the Rams, the Seahawks with

801
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:26,879
Speaker 11: a better team in that game because the defense kept

802
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 11: them innute.

803
00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 1: The only gave him twenty one points.

804
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:32,359
Speaker 11: If Jaybi hits the sixty one yard walk off field goal,

805
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,319
Speaker 11: we're I mean, there would have been a three. They

806
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 11: would have got the hat trick over the Rams. They

807
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 11: would have swept them. So I don't know, it could

808
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 11: have been a bad stretch, but yeah, man, he's in

809
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 11: lockstep with Clint Kubiak. Clint Kubiak is the reason why.

810
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 11: I mean, Rich Eisen said the other.

811
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 10: Day Clint Kubiak's gonna be a head coach in less

812
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:49,280
Speaker 10: than two weeks.

813
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 11: So, I mean they're they're together, And I mean Sam

814
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,839
Speaker 11: Donald's been amazing for Seattle. If anybody now still knocks them,

815
00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:00,840
Speaker 11: and Lashawn Shady McCoy's like all the Rams, the Rams,

816
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:04,120
Speaker 11: you know, put Sam Donald. The other day he was

817
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 11: basically not giving Sam darnal. If you don't give him

818
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 11: credit after Sunday, you're just a dam or you hate

819
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,719
Speaker 11: Sam Donald or your jet span or all of these.

820
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, Jason Smith, Right, I just I just bring

821
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 1: it up because like like a reliever could have one

822
00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:19,759
Speaker 1: bad inning and his eer could be blown to hell,

823
00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: and then he's got fifteen great games, but he still

824
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 1: has a five VRA because he gave up nine runs

825
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 1: and a third of an inning.

826
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 3: Well, I just look back to last year and he

827
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 3: only had twelve picks and he threw five hundred and

828
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 3: forty five times. I mean, he threw seventy more times

829
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 3: last season they did this season, had two fewer picks,

830
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 3: and he only lost one fumble, had put three on

831
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 3: the ground or excuse me, two fumbles last season. So

832
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,359
Speaker 3: I think I think we have to look at two

833
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,560
Speaker 3: Sam Donald's. We have to look at the pre twenty

834
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 3: twenty four Sam Donald, and we have to look at

835
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,319
Speaker 3: the twenty four to twenty five Sam Donald. And in

836
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 3: twenty four he didn't have a turnover problem. So I think,

837
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 3: I mean, I do think it points more, Dave, to

838
00:38:57,920 --> 00:38:59,799
Speaker 3: what you're talking about of being just a couple of

839
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 3: you know, a couple of games where he goes a

840
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 3: third of an inning and gives up four runs.

841
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, Mark, I don't know, man. I just think

842
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 1: when you look at it, and you look at those

843
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 1: two games. If he has a normal couple of games,

844
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,920
Speaker 1: maybe a pick, you know whatever, maybe one per game.

845
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 1: I don't know if people are flipping out about this

846
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:20,239
Speaker 1: guy the way they are, But you know what, Dick

847
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:21,879
Speaker 1: and I are very proud of you. We really are.

848
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:23,080
Speaker 1: We're very proud of you.

849
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:27,200
Speaker 11: By the way, I listen, I like Sam Darnold guys

850
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 11: a lot.

851
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. When they got him, I

852
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,400
Speaker 1: was psyched. I'm like, get rid of Geno.

853
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 19: But then sometimes Sam turned into Ginger Gino at times?

854
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, well at times. Overall, he is still better

855
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: than Geno Smith. He has given them a massive upgrade

856
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 1: at that position. And John Schneider did good going out

857
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 1: and getting this guy. He might be the greatest free

858
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 1: agent acquisition in Seattle sports history, unless you think that

859
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 1: honor should go to Sean Figgins.

860
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 3: All right, Mark, Hey, can I ask Mark one question real,

861
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 3: because he knows he knows Patriot fans more than we do. Yes,

862
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 3: Are they gonna be cocky? Are they cocky coming in

863
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,280
Speaker 3: this game? Even though they're almost touchdowns?

864
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 1: The fans next?

865
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:08,320
Speaker 3: Today?

866
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:10,719
Speaker 21: Yeah, I got a text today and someone was telling

867
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 21: me that on sports radio up there, that they're saying

868
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:16,480
Speaker 21: that because of what the Rams were able to do

869
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:20,479
Speaker 21: in terms of moving the ball on Sunday that I'm like, how.

870
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 11: There's no way you're telling me Matt Collins and he

871
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:28,840
Speaker 11: Sewan Boody and a washstep On Diggs it's gonna be

872
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 11: able to move the ball. They're not gonna be able

873
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:32,040
Speaker 11: to score.

874
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 1: They can't move the ball.

875
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 11: This is a bad This.

876
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,760
Speaker 1: Is a horrible matchup. This like the Super bowls on Sunday.

877
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:41,760
Speaker 1: It was on Sunday. Yes, I said, whoever won that game.

878
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 11: The Patriots fans, this is not their time. Their time

879
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 11: was the past. Tom Brady's not walking through that door.

880
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 11: And if he does, he's gonna be wearing silver and black.

881
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:49,919
Speaker 18: Yeah.

882
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,200
Speaker 11: Belichick is gonna be with his gold digger girlfriend. He's

883
00:40:53,239 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 11: not what this is. Patriots have overachieved this year. I

884
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 11: think Mike Rabels should be Coaching of the Year. But

885
00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 11: Mike McDonald's the best coach in the NFL.

886
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 1: Right now, All right, great stuff, we'll see it tomorrow,

887
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:05,640
Speaker 1: Buddy Buddios, Mark James with us on the air. We're

888

Speaker 3: We're in our early fifties. We already have plenty of

915
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 3: DFT tissue. Dam it doesn't really matter.

916
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,320
Speaker 1: You ever see the movie Toxic Avenger from back in

917
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,399
Speaker 1: the seventies, by the way, when the guy falls into

918
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 1: a nuclear waste plant. All right, I mean both of

919
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: us look like that already, So it's fine. But I mean, John, honestly,

920
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:38,880
Speaker 1: like we have you on to talk mostly college athletics,

921
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 1: Pack ten, twelve, Big ten, whatever, are you going to

922
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,480
Speaker 1: be pulling any Super Bowl duty next week? And how

923
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 1: big a deal is this for the Bay area?

924
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 18: Man? Well, I think it's a pretty big deal because

925
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:56,839
Speaker 18: you know, everybody hates the Seahawks, so that's I mean,

926
00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:58,359
Speaker 18: it was going to be a big deal either way,

927
00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 18: because everybody hates the Lambs too, so you know, it's

928
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 18: It's interesting because a lot of the events are in

929
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,799
Speaker 18: San Francisco, but the game and I think a lot

930
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 18: of media availability and the teams are staying down in

931
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 18: the South Bay in the Santa Clair, San Jose area,

932
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 18: so it's almost like two cities are co hosting the

933
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 18: whole week, and you know, that can be a little

934
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 18: bit of a nasty drive between s and San Francisco

935
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 18: depending on when you do it. So it's a little weird,

936
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,839
Speaker 18: but people are excited and you know, the Patriots, there's

937
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 18: some interest in the Patriots, but a lot of it

938
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:38,799
Speaker 18: is is the Seahawks and certainly Sam Darnold playing, you know,

939
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 18: on his former home turf for I don't know how

940
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:43,920
Speaker 18: long he was here, what one year maybe?

941
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, David's kind of like New York, right, I

942
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,320
Speaker 3: mean it was New York City, but then New Jersey

943
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 3: had the practices in the media days and stuff like that,

944
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 3: so it's kind of gonna be similar to that.

945
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 1: It is, but the difference is nobody had to drive, right,

946
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 1: because we just took the subway, or we took a train,

947
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 1: or we took und media bus. But we're gonna be

948
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 1: driving John and look, I'll be honest, we're gonna stay

949
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 1: in daily city. We're doing the show in San Francisco

950
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:10,920
Speaker 1: at the Moscone Center, but the media availability for players

951
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,080
Speaker 1: is in San Jose. How screwed are we with traffic?

952
00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:17,799
Speaker 18: It depends on what time they had the media availability.

953
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 18: You could be super screwed or it could be you know,

954
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 18: no traffic. You're looking at maybe forty five fifty minutes

955
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:27,280
Speaker 18: depending on exactly where.

956
00:44:27,120 --> 00:44:29,279
Speaker 1: You are ten thirty in the morning on Wednesday and

957
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:33,400
Speaker 1: Thursday to get to San Jose. That's a lot.

958
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:37,879
Speaker 18: That could be tough, right, all right, there's a lot

959
00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,400
Speaker 18: of people coming down. You know where you're gonna be.

960
00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:44,240
Speaker 18: You got to kind of go past where Google, Facebook, Apple,

961
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 18: so you're going to get some tech traffic for sure.

962
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 1: All right, Well, what night do you want us to

963
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: come over? And what's for dinner?

964
00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 18: Yeah, h Wednesdays are usually a good night, okay around here,

965
00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,000
Speaker 18: plan on it all right, right, so we'll plan on

966
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:03,560
Speaker 18: it all right. Happy to have you guys. I'm glad

967
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,000
Speaker 18: you're coming. And it should be a really good game.

968
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:06,600
Speaker 1: No, it should be.

969
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,680
Speaker 3: It should be a good game. Well, John, obviously, the

970
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:12,279
Speaker 3: big news today in college sports Big ten schedule comes out,

971
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 3: and we're very very happy that we don't have like

972
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:16,760
Speaker 3: half of our games against teams coming off of byes

973
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:17,319
Speaker 3: this year.

974
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 18: Well sure, I mean part of that is beyond the

975
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:25,279
Speaker 18: Big Tens control because there's only one by or it's

976
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 18: a thirteen week season because Labor Day, right, the whole

977
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:31,279
Speaker 18: season is hooked to when Labor Day is. Labor Day

978
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 18: is as late as possible, it's Monday to seventh. That

979
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 18: means there's only thirteen Saturdays, which means every team only

980
00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:42,760
Speaker 18: has one. By last season, fourteenth saturdays, everybody had two buys.

981
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 18: You got an eighteen team conference. There's two bys. That

982
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:48,800
Speaker 18: means there's thirty six instances in which a team is

983
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,840
Speaker 18: coming off of bye. So there's a much greater chance

984
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,560
Speaker 18: that Washington was going to draw some of those this

985
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,359
Speaker 18: coming year. I mean, if you're if you're a Husky fan,

986
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 18: you couldn't have asked for a better schedule, right you

987
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,280
Speaker 18: You're coming off a bye and you're playing the Brasset

988
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:04,400
Speaker 18: coming off of buy and that's it.

989
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:04,759
Speaker 1: That's it.

990
00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 18: We don't know what the Friday games are gonna be,

991
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 18: but it's all lined up. I mean I'm looking at it,

992
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,279
Speaker 18: and you should. I mean, that looks like nine wins, right,

993
00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:16,480
Speaker 18: I mean, you gotta you gotta like it. You get

994
00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 18: at SC after SC plays Oregon, right, I mean you're

995
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 18: getting a lot of the sequencing of games is really

996
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:26,160
Speaker 18: good for the Husky And no back.

997
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 3: To backs either. I mean, you're only two back to

998
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,800
Speaker 3: back road games. There's a buy in between. That's unbelievable.

999
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,439
Speaker 18: Well, I don't think West Coast schools have ever had

1000
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 18: back to back conference right than the realizing that's something

1001
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 18: that the Big Ten has been really tried, really tried

1002
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 18: to avoid. I mean, you get Indiana, they're coming off

1003
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:48,879
Speaker 18: of sc right. I mean, it's it's it's pretty nice.

1004
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 18: If you're a Husky fan, you're looking thinking that nine

1005
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:52,760
Speaker 18: nine to three minimum.

1006
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,799
Speaker 1: Maybe no, no doubt. I mean you close your eyes

1007
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:56,600
Speaker 1: and you squint your eyes, like you know, at the

1008
00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:58,399
Speaker 1: right angle, you can see it. Maybe winning them all

1009
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,200
Speaker 1: before that Indiana game. I mean, obviously something will catch

1010
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:02,839
Speaker 1: up to them. But just back to the buy thing

1011
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 1: for a second. So last year they had five games

1012
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:09,400
Speaker 1: against teams that were coming off of buy, but dub

1013
00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:11,960
Speaker 1: had a buy before the Wisconsin game. So it is

1014
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:15,280
Speaker 1: net and minus four if you will, now it's net

1015
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 1: zero because Nebraska's got a buy, but soda is Washington.

1016
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,360
Speaker 1: You mentioned there's not much the Big Ten can do

1017
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 1: about that, but that's a pretty drastic difference. Man, to

1018
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:28,759
Speaker 1: go from five games to one, and going from net

1019
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:33,120
Speaker 1: minus four to zero is pretty significant. How much bitching

1020
00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:36,920
Speaker 1: and moaning was done behind the scenes and how impactful

1021
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 1: do you think it was?

1022
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:44,360
Speaker 18: Well, so what I meant is that basically eighty percent

1023
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:49,240
Speaker 18: of it is is beyond the Big tens control because

1024
00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,839
Speaker 18: of the buys and all of the details that go in.

1025
00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:55,560
Speaker 18: You know, homecoming, you know this team can't go here

1026
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,879
Speaker 18: or this team can't go there. But then you get

1027
00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:01,040
Speaker 18: the margins, the ten percent on each side. And last

1028
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 18: year Washington was one of the teams that got caught

1029
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,799
Speaker 18: in the margins right, and the Big ten knew it.

1030
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:11,520
Speaker 18: They knew it, and Washington made their feelings known. And

1031
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:14,160
Speaker 18: the big one of the things that Big ten tries

1032
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:15,839
Speaker 18: to do because I've talked to the people who make

1033
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:19,359
Speaker 18: their schedule and they know that every year there's gonna

1034
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 18: be a team or two that is on the margins

1035
00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 18: and draws a short straw, and their goal is that

1036
00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:27,000
Speaker 18: that doesn't happen two years in a row to the

1037
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:31,359
Speaker 18: same team. And that is the case with Washington here.

1038
00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:35,280
Speaker 18: But again, there was even in a worst case scenario

1039
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,759
Speaker 18: for the Huskies because there's only one by this year,

1040
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:40,160
Speaker 18: it was gonna only it was gonna happen two or

1041
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 18: three times, not four or five.

1042
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,239
Speaker 1: Well, last year they just had that one Friday game, right,

1043
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:46,640
Speaker 1: Dick against Rutgers. That's it. And so they only get

1044
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 1: one Friday game of year. Is that correct? They can

1045
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 1: only get one Friday game of a year.

1046
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:53,440
Speaker 18: Yeah, I think that that's how it's gonna work. And

1047
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:56,839
Speaker 18: my guess is, well, no, they had to last year,

1048
00:48:56,920 --> 00:49:02,040
Speaker 18: didn't they Rutgers? And because the road Friday.

1049
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:07,240
Speaker 1: Game Rutgers, maybe that's it. Okay, ye, all right, So.

1050
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:10,439
Speaker 18: If I'm guessing that they're gonna have a road Friday game,

1051
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:14,440
Speaker 18: because I think if they try to alternate, it would

1052
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:17,120
Speaker 18: make a lot of sense to me if the Nebraska

1053
00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:20,480
Speaker 18: game is off Friday game, because Washington will still have

1054
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 18: the extra week to prepare.

1055
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 3: Interesting move it off of Halloween. On a lot of fanals,

1056
00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:28,560
Speaker 3: we would like that. Hey, John, why couldn't the Big

1057
00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,080
Speaker 3: Ten and SEC agree on playoff expansion?

1058
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 18: They just are looking at things very differently, and they

1059
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:41,359
Speaker 18: never really got close. The interesting piece is that, like

1060
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 18: usually in college football, they make a decision that's bad.

1061
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:49,560
Speaker 18: In this case, the decision to stay at twelve is fine.

1062
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:54,920
Speaker 18: I mean, nobody's really complaining that twelve is bad. It's certainly,

1063
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:59,440
Speaker 18: in my mind, is way better than twenty four. You

1064
00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:02,560
Speaker 18: could argue sixteen is better. But so the Big ten

1065
00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:06,560
Speaker 18: basically said, we're not going to sixteen without a guarantee

1066
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:09,239
Speaker 18: that we're gonna eventually go to twenty four. And the

1067
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:12,760
Speaker 18: SEC said, we're not going to guarantee twenty four until

1068
00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:14,640
Speaker 18: we at least see how sixteen works.

1069
00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:16,000
Speaker 1: Right, right, did they want to guarantee?

1070
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:17,200
Speaker 18: Walderheads? Sorry?

1071
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:18,959
Speaker 3: Why do they want the guarantee to go to twenty

1072
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,000
Speaker 3: four by going to sixteen? Why would the Big ten

1073
00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:21,360
Speaker 3: want that?

1074
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 18: Because they believe twenty four is better for them, and

1075
00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 18: they also believe it's better for the sports because then

1076
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:32,200
Speaker 18: you get the automatic bids per conference, which gives you

1077
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:35,719
Speaker 18: some flexibility for your non conference games and gives you

1078
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,920
Speaker 18: the chance to do the play in games potentially to

1079
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:43,240
Speaker 18: help your TV partners. And the other thing is Fox

1080
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,279
Speaker 18: is kind of pushing behind the scenes for it to

1081
00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:47,239
Speaker 18: go to twenty four because then Fox will maybe have

1082
00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 18: a chance to get some games. Right now, espno is

1083
00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:52,600
Speaker 18: the whole thing. If you go from twelve to twenty four,

1084
00:50:52,960 --> 00:50:56,319
Speaker 18: the contract has to be redone. Fox has the opportunity.

1085
00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,120
Speaker 18: Fox is the Big Ten's partner, right.

1086
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:01,640
Speaker 1: John Wilner with us courtesy of our friends at simply

1087
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:06,080
Speaker 1: Sattle dot com. John, I'm looking at USC schedule. I

1088
00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 1: see twelve games on Washington's schedule, and I only see

1089
00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 1: eleven on USC schedule. And it's frickin' January. What's going on?

1090
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:17,239
Speaker 18: Well, they haven't been able to find somebody to replace

1091
00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:22,080
Speaker 18: another dame. What they did do though, because you know,

1092
00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:25,080
Speaker 18: the big the Big ten, had to put the schedule out,

1093
00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:30,920
Speaker 18: so they locked USC into playing week zero. So whoever

1094
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 18: USC ends up playing, and I don't know if it's

1095
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,200
Speaker 18: going to be an FCS team or a group of five,

1096
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,520
Speaker 18: that's gonna be week zero. That way, they were able

1097
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:43,360
Speaker 18: to lock in the west of USC schedule. Because you

1098
00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:45,919
Speaker 18: move right, it's like kind of like Jenga, you move

1099
00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:48,360
Speaker 18: one piece and a lot of it can fall apart.

1100
00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:51,200
Speaker 18: So they had to put the unknown game for USC

1101
00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:54,840
Speaker 18: in week zero so there wouldn't be any collateral damage.

1102
00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:56,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Well we got to talk about Wednesday

1103
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,560
