Speaker 1: cleaned up, mister Muslins.
Speaker 3: Cleaned up?
Speaker 4: You haven't shaved since the bi centennial. What's the deal?
Speaker 5: No, well, yeah, I did have a little bit of
Speaker 5: that grizzly look.
Speaker 4: What was the point of that? I don't know the

Speaker 6: but still not paying off?
Speaker 4: No, no, no.
Speaker 6: If you had not good at it, you always coordinated, You.
Speaker 4: Got no style, but you try, you're trying.
Speaker 3: You always smell good.
Speaker 5: You like okay, you do. Let's let's sit down.
Speaker 3: Effort. You always come in smelling like fresh cologne.
Speaker 4: So okay close. You've mentioned this.
Speaker 5: You mentioned this a couple of times, and I started
Speaker 5: thinking to myself, is he ripping me because you're so
Speaker 5: damn charismatic. I'm like, I think he means it.
Speaker 4: You don't want to go kiss ass out in the hallway.
Speaker 4: I mean you must just make out with him.
Speaker 5: That It was just like, okay, maybe he's like, give
Speaker 5: me a hint, like maybe back off of the.
Speaker 6: Not at all, like you sit down, like you sit
Speaker 6: down like this is a real professional job.
Speaker 2: That's hard to do.
Speaker 1: That you just nailed.
Speaker 2: That is the difference.
Speaker 3: I'm feinting at all.
Speaker 5: Oh you know what, I.
Speaker 2: Have a supposition. And again that's my favorite word.
Speaker 1: Now I believe my body consumes cologne because I just
Speaker 1: douse myself in it and I still smell like me,
Speaker 1: he thinks, So dude, I kid you not. I put
Speaker 1: on everything. I am just lathering myself and stuff, and
Speaker 1: by the time I get here, I don't smell like
Speaker 1: anything but me. Oh man, I tell you you'd be surprised.
Speaker 4: What are you wearing.

Speaker 5: the wrists, and then you get one.
Speaker 2: For the ladies.
Speaker 4: What are you going on a first date for the ladies?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know that means show me on the camera.
Speaker 5: Yeah you know that's where you spray it in the
Speaker 5: air and then you walk into it.
Speaker 2: My god, yeah hips first, huh, Maybe that's what I'm
Speaker 2: doing wrong.
Speaker 7: LUs Maybe think about what the average cost of a
Speaker 7: cologne spray is, right, how many bottles over the years
Speaker 7: you've wasted with that spray?
Speaker 5: No that it's a finishing move for getting ready. You
Speaker 5: gotta do that.
Speaker 7: But I'm saying for the ladies, you've wasted gallons. Yeah,
Speaker 7: fireing one off there for the ladies, right, last one
Speaker 7: for so much?
Speaker 5: Car?
Speaker 4: Dad?
Speaker 5: Remember that back in high school?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, the mother of dragons asking for fire.

Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Also good, thank you.
Speaker 2: That's what I wear and you can't tell it all.
Speaker 6: So you tell me that if you use muscles technique,
Speaker 6: you'd be putting blue on your.
Speaker 1: Well, first of all, I don't think my hips work
Speaker 1: like that. He just walked with his penis leading. Yeah, pep,
Speaker 1: it's astead of his tail.
Speaker 4: He was like an ego. Montoya asked his dad to
Speaker 4: guide my sword, to guide my sword. It's good everything.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna literally drown myself tomorrow with that stuff. And
Speaker 1: you guys tell me if you notice it at all,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make you're gonna forget good luck moment. I
Speaker 1: want you to tell me if you notice it, Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, because I am just I mean, Tommy told
Speaker 1: me so.
Speaker 5: I bought it, and it was like I might as
Speaker 5: well be pouring water on myself. I'm a big John Varvoltos.
Speaker 2: Wow, grease, that's that's the colone. That and I also.
Speaker 4: And you moisturize.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the good stuff.
Speaker 2: I can't stand moisturizer.
Speaker 3: Really?
Speaker 5: Is it because of the saw some blue? You know?
Speaker 2: Maybe it is?
Speaker 4: Plus I just feel greasy. I'm with Chris. I don't
Speaker 4: like that either.
Speaker 2: Plus when I get the bottle, I get into rest.
Speaker 4: God, you know what, it's like a dog situation.
Speaker 1: Tell my little guy not now.
Speaker 5: Man comes out one pump on the plunger. All of
Speaker 5: a sudden, here we go, pump on the plunger. Oh,
Speaker 5: I see what you're saying. What has happened?
Speaker 4: Wow? For that?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 8: Absolutely, they're right. So they go football football, football, football, Am.
Speaker 4: I right, Yeah, you're right man, Yeah, you're saying.
Speaker 2: That, right.
Speaker 6: Hey, can I can I interject real quick and and
Speaker 6: say that I I heard you guys talk about Mike
Speaker 6: McCarthy to the Steelers. Yes, I actually don't think it's
Speaker 6: bet of a higher. It's not the same. The thing is,
Speaker 6: like I get it. It's not a sexy higher, not
Speaker 6: at all. But you look at what he did in Dallas.
Speaker 6: Didn't you win like twelve games three years in a.
Speaker 3: Row something like that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, well he took he took over maybe the hardest
Speaker 6: franchise in America to be successful and given the ownership.
Speaker 5: And that was after he deconstructed his whole theory and
Speaker 5: what he wanted to do with his offense.
Speaker 6: So he took like what people thought was an archaic offense,
Speaker 6: he modernized it in a sense. I don't know exactly
Speaker 6: exits and nose like what he did, but like, he
Speaker 6: took a really really hard franchise that needed a head coach.
Speaker 6: So obviously they weren't playing very well. He had three
Speaker 6: twelve win seasons and deal Jerry Jones. He showed that
Speaker 6: he can be a modern offense. I think his offense
Speaker 6: was like a top five or top ten offense. He
Speaker 6: modernized it, it made sense, he won games, and he
Speaker 6: was seemed like a hell of a CEO. So it's like,
Speaker 6: I don't know, maybe if he can provide stability and
Speaker 6: modernize that offense and bring all that to that franchise
Speaker 6: in Pittsburgh, I don't know why he couldn't be successful.
Speaker 3: He's just got to find a quarterback.
Speaker 4: Let's talk about this one for a second, Benjamin.
Speaker 7: On Friday, Philip Rivers interviewed for the Bill's head coaching job.
Speaker 7: Your guy, Philip, what? Oh yeah, he did played for
Speaker 7: the Colts last year. Of course, he is a high
Speaker 7: school head coach in Alabama and his off time never coached.
Speaker 4: And no, no, how about this, ben If.
Speaker 7: If Philip Rivers gets the job or gets a job,
Speaker 7: only one player in NFL history has played one season
Speaker 7: and then was head coach in the next season.
Speaker 4: Anybody know who it is?
Speaker 3: It's not Saturday, Jeff Saturday.
Speaker 4: Jeff Saturday, No, because that was that was Saturday.
Speaker 3: Was he was retired for a while.
Speaker 4: Retired?
Speaker 2: You do my favorite? Ask the question one more time.
Speaker 7: Only one player in the NFL has ever played one
Speaker 7: season and then was the head coach the next season,
Speaker 7: not necessarily for the same team, just was a head
Speaker 7: coach in the NFL one year after playing. I'm like
Speaker 7: an old school players like Joe name it or something.
Speaker 4: It's it's a considerable amount of time ago.
Speaker 2: Was it forced?
Speaker 4: Greg what?
Speaker 2: Kerry Bradshaw, Dusty Man? Was it a tittle?
Speaker 4: Not that far back? Singletary a quarterback?
Speaker 3: Tony Dungee.
Speaker 1: No, we're not going to get it.
Speaker 4: We're not gonna get Sauce is getting closer.
Speaker 1: But Grant, uh so the dude, Paul Wigan.
Speaker 9: Um, Jerry Burns, Uh, go the other way, Dennis Green
Speaker 9: the other way?
Speaker 7: Uh Less, Steppyl keep going back, Mike Tice, you're going
Speaker 7: the wrong way.
Speaker 4: Go historically the other way, Bud Grant. Sorry, sorry, relax,
Speaker 4: taking your breath.
Speaker 7: In nineteen sixty for the Philadelphia Eagles, Norm Van Brocklin
Speaker 7: played and then the Minnesota Vikings debute in nineteen sixty one,
Speaker 7: and he was our head coach.
Speaker 2: Oh no.
Speaker 7: Kidding, So he played the previous year with the Eagles.
Speaker 7: He went three and eleven the first year with the Vices.
Speaker 7: But our first ever coach was the only person to
Speaker 7: ever do that.
Speaker 3: That's a good poll.
Speaker 4: Blyn that was the next name. I was going to
Speaker 4: say right when you brought that up.
Speaker 10: Core Philip Rivers has withdrawn from the Bills coachings perfect time.
Speaker 4: So Norm van brockln will be the only one that's ever.
Speaker 2: You know what, I'm gonna go with it. Two, I'm
Speaker 2: with drawing my name.
Speaker 3: Oh I'm not.
Speaker 4: I want to stay in that running.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want it.
Speaker 1: Why I don't believe in whatever's name Allen is Josh.
Speaker 3: You don't believe Josh Allen. Yeah, it's a good reason
Speaker 3: to pull your name out.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I would love to be the head coach on
Speaker 7: a five year deal. I would be dismissed, I believe,
Speaker 7: halfway through year one, but I would still have that
Speaker 7: guaranteed money.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So since you're pulling out, I'm gonna leave mine in. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I will.
Speaker 3: Take me to the anchor bar.
Speaker 5: We'll have some wings, we'll talk.
Speaker 2: About that sounds amazing.
Speaker 4: I've never seen Niagara Falls. I would like to drive there.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: That's actually kind of cool. Yeah, but it is.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it's a one time thing. Although everybody
Speaker 6: tells me that it's a one time thing. If you
Speaker 6: see it from both sides, if you go to the
Speaker 6: Canadian side. Yeah, but it's a it's a multi destination,
Speaker 6: so to speak. If if you only see just the
Speaker 6: US side and then maybe the next time you do
Speaker 6: the Canadian side.
Speaker 3: I think it's kind of a cool thing. I did
Speaker 3: not I've never done, like The Maid of.
Speaker 6: The Mystic, like the boat ride.
Speaker 3: Yeah, never put on the poncho.
Speaker 1: It's where Jim and Pam got married, that's right, And
Speaker 1: where Bruce Almighty lost his mind.
Speaker 4: Yes, you guys remember when what was it Superman one
Speaker 4: or two?
Speaker 7: Maybe too, where the kid fell off the rail at
Speaker 7: Niagara Falls. And look, I understand Superman can fly around
Speaker 7: the world, right.
Speaker 4: He can fly it outer space. He's very fast.
Speaker 7: But the kid starts falling and then Clark Kent runs
Speaker 7: away from the scene to go change into Superman.
Speaker 4: That kid would have hit the ground by then. He
Speaker 4: would have been at the bottom of the falls.
Speaker 3: You don't understand how fast Superman is.
Speaker 7: But you watch him running in real time human speed
Speaker 7: to go change the kids already never been.
Speaker 1: Is it must be a pure pleasure to watch movies.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying Superman make one mistake, surprise and a
Speaker 4: TV divorce. Best choice I've ever made.
Speaker 10: When we all went I saw Batman five minutes in.
Speaker 10: By your body language, I could tell you hated it.
Speaker 4: I did not care for that one.
Speaker 3: Five minutes in. I looked over.
Speaker 10: I'm like, oh god, he hate I knew after the
Speaker 10: movie when everybody's like, yeah, that was great, that was awesome,
Speaker 10: that was sweet, that was.
Speaker 5: Of course just yeah. I just love the fact that
Speaker 5: Krypton you're okay with. But this kid falling, Nope, no way.
Speaker 2: God, suspend disbelieving.
Speaker 4: It took him seven minutes to change.
Speaker 3: Should they show him changing?
Speaker 7: The kid doesn't fall it slow in slow motion, he
Speaker 7: falls at normal speed. That kid's toast. I'm actually, you
Speaker 7: know what sucks is I was in the minority. I
Speaker 7: didn't care for the latest Batman, just because again I
Speaker 7: got tired.
Speaker 4: Of him being told what is he doing here? He's
Speaker 4: a detective, he's trying to figure it out. Get him
Speaker 4: out of here. It's Batman, your dumb asses.
Speaker 9: I hate that.
Speaker 2: Drove me nuts.
Speaker 4: It drove me nuts.
Speaker 7: But but and I didn't love Paul Daniel's Riddler, and
Speaker 7: I do like Paul Danel, but I thought it was
Speaker 7: just okay.
Speaker 4: Point is you and Tarantino?
Speaker 7: But I like Paul danel uh, but even that Barry
Speaker 7: Kyogan's Joker cut scene looks so good.
Speaker 4: I think they're gonna nail the next one.
Speaker 7: I just thought the first one was like a B
Speaker 7: minus the Penguin show was so good though Penguin See.
Speaker 7: I thought the Penguin was way better than the movie.
Speaker 7: I thought that series was really good. Did you watch
Speaker 7: it alone?
Speaker 4: Sure?
Speaker 5: Did?
Speaker 4: Best choice ever made.
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, man, I don't remember the name
Speaker 1: of the movie, but I only remember Barry Kyogan San.
Speaker 1: How about maybe maybe you think we could ever go
Speaker 1: have lunch together?
Speaker 7: That was the It's heartbreaking, but it's it's so well acted, which.
Speaker 2: She says no, and he goes yeah, I thought not.
Speaker 2: I thought that was probably not gonna happen.
Speaker 4: And there goes that dream. Oh my god. Who he's
Speaker 4: such a good actress.
Speaker 2: Like I was standing there with them, I can see
Speaker 2: it that moment.
Speaker 7: Man, it's the most realistic at his body language, the
Speaker 7: way he looks off under the lake, like that was
Speaker 7: the last reason to even try to live, like I
Speaker 7: guess that was it.
Speaker 4: It broken? Oh man, Oh my gosh, why do you
Speaker 4: write that? I don't know?
Speaker 1: And it doesn't work, it's not the right actor.
Speaker 2: It's just another scene.
Speaker 4: My god, looking off into the distance.
Speaker 2: I getting emotional remembory.
Speaker 4: That was a tough scene to watch. Great movie. Was
Speaker 4: it like three years ago?
Speaker 7: Maybe?
Speaker 4: Yeah, two or four.
Speaker 2: It's like the Red Shoes in Uh Jojo Rabbit. Yep,
Speaker 2: my god, yep.
Speaker 7: All right, it's also walking through sports after this. Ben
Speaker 7: Lever is here, Michael J. Musman, the third is here.
Speaker 7: This is the power Trip Morning Show on the Fan.
Speaker 1: All right, seven twenty seven. Here we are Partrip Morning Show.
Speaker 1: Mussman and Leapsman.
Speaker 3: M Leapsman.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and maximm sounds like a Roman.
Speaker 4: Leader, it does. Yeah, kind of cool.
Speaker 2: Hey man.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Did the Rams let Cooper Cup go because they thought
Speaker 1: he was through?
Speaker 3: I think so? Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think it was money as well.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I think they had cut a bunch of money
Speaker 10: and he was one of the I think it's took
Speaker 10: both well.
Speaker 4: That can't be right. The salary caps and Smith. You
Speaker 4: can sign whoever you want to whatever you want.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was clutch last night.
Speaker 3: Boy.
Speaker 6: I tell you what that offense for Seattle. I mean
Speaker 6: it is.
Speaker 9: It is.
Speaker 6: It is dynamic, and it is downfield and it is
Speaker 6: explosive and they showed it in the.
Speaker 4: First drive of the game. Yeah yeah, Smith and Jigbo.
Speaker 10: Man, how good is the Shaheed trade?
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, yeah, incredible. Yeah, they've made all the right moves.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys remember when I went
Speaker 1: out to Vegas to broadcast out there and I stayed
Speaker 1: at CIRCA.
Speaker 2: Yeah you remember.
Speaker 1: I told you guys that they had a bunch of
Speaker 1: sports people out there, and one of them was a
Speaker 1: guy from Seattle and he had me on and he
Speaker 1: wanted to talk sports, and so I had to bs
Speaker 1: my entire way through it, and he kept asking me
Speaker 1: questions about basketball and baseball, and I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you got it, man, I know right, And I just
Speaker 1: agree with everything he said. Uh everything I said to
Speaker 1: him about Sam Darnold turned out to be right.
Speaker 2: And I was just flying with it.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 2: I was like, I tell you guys, you got to go.
Speaker 1: If they put him in the offense and just let
Speaker 1: him do what he's good at, he's going to be great.
Speaker 1: I know he's going to email me the sports guy
Speaker 1: and say, dude, you nailed it.
Speaker 2: You were so right about it.
Speaker 7: Think about all of his listeners going got that guy
Speaker 7: from Minneapolis back and they nailed it was tuned in
Speaker 7: man and.
Speaker 4: All he was thinking about where the slots?
Speaker 1: Yeah, how much long is it gonna take?
Speaker 5: I just love how I mean, I feel so good
Speaker 5: for the guy. He's a good guy and it's it's
Speaker 5: just so fun to watch. And I'm not one of
Speaker 5: those where, like you know, Vik's fans, some will be like, oh,
Speaker 5: why did we get rid of him? He's playing in
Speaker 5: the Super Bowl? Would he did three hundred and forty
Speaker 5: six yards and three touchdowns? Come on, why do we
Speaker 5: let him go? From what I understand, we tried to
Speaker 5: have him stay. They made him an offer, but he
Speaker 5: also knew that, Well they're gonna go with the JJ
Speaker 5: McCarthy thing, So why would I stick around?
Speaker 3: Right him?
Speaker 2: An offer he could refuse.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's true, yep, Soul, you'd like to do sports
Speaker 4: three years.
Speaker 2: One hundred million dollars or something, right?
Speaker 3: Is that what he got? I think sothing like that? Yeah, yeah, yes, sir,
Speaker 3: I would love him.
Speaker 1: It's time for a fan five on the Power Trip,
Speaker 1: presented by all Around your Timber Tech deck building contractor
Speaker 1: thank you all around be ye doing?
Speaker 10: Oh well, I can the Patriots in a Snowstorm beat
Speaker 10: the Broncos ten to seven to advance to the Super Bowl.
Speaker 10: The Pats will go to their twelve Super Bowl. The
Speaker 10: Patriots become the first team in the Super Bowl era
Speaker 10: to reach the Super Bowl after hiring a new head
Speaker 10: coach and only winning four games or fewer this season before.
Speaker 10: They will battle the Seahawks, who beat the Rams thirty
Speaker 10: one to twenty seven. Our guy Sam Darnold twenty five
Speaker 10: to thirty six, three and forty six yards and three touchdowns.
Speaker 10: Super Bowl sixty is thirteen days from today at five twenty.
Speaker 2: I think you're doing the pregame starting tomorrow, Mussey.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yep, yeah.
Speaker 10: Your Seahawks are four and a half point favorites and
Speaker 10: the over under right now is forty six and a half.
Speaker 5: Credit to CBS because it was so weird when they
Speaker 5: started to superimpose the numbers and the lines and the
Speaker 5: hashes and everything like that onto the field. Yeah, so
Speaker 5: you could see it on the coverage and it was like,
Speaker 5: this is really distracting. And they only did it for like,
Speaker 5: I want to say, a series, and then they took
Speaker 5: it off. Then they were only doing the line of
Speaker 5: scrimmage and then also just.
Speaker 6: The first down marker and yeah, yeah, but they did
Speaker 6: the entire field and that was just w Yeah, that
Speaker 6: was too much. Yeah, there was a there was a
Speaker 6: point in time where nance was psych I don't even
Speaker 6: know where the ball's at. I don't know what yard
Speaker 6: line that is. We're just gonna like go ahead and
Speaker 6: just see what happens. Yeah, I would take looking looking
Speaker 6: forward to the Super Bowl, I'm taking the Seahawks, don't.
Speaker 6: I don't even care if this If the the difference
Speaker 6: is ten, like, give me the Seahawks, and I think
Speaker 6: they'll cover the ten points, like I think it's gonna be. Unfortunately,
Speaker 6: it didn't matter which team made it out of the AFC.
Speaker 6: I just think that the AFC teams have a lot
Speaker 6: of major flaws, and I think the Patriots continually get
Speaker 6: exposed with their offensive line. I do not think that
Speaker 6: they have the offensive line to stay with the Seattle
Speaker 6: Seahawks in the Super Bowl. They can't run the ball
Speaker 6: very effectively. They can't protect that's two games in a
Speaker 6: row now that they can't. They can't really protect Drake May.
Speaker 6: And if if Drake May is not a mobile quarterback,
Speaker 6: they lose that game.
Speaker 10: They only won because of his legs. Do you think
Speaker 10: Will Campbell the left is a liability.
Speaker 3: I think he's a liability.
Speaker 10: I mean I heard I think it was on TV
Speaker 10: or maybe in the car, that he in the playoffs
Speaker 10: has given up like ten pressures in like multiple sacks.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm I.
Speaker 6: Don't want to be too judgmental on such a young player,
Speaker 6: but he's got a lot to figure out if he
Speaker 6: wants to be the franchise left tackle.
Speaker 4: Is it the short arms that everybody complained about.
Speaker 3: I think that's part of it.
Speaker 6: That was like, no, I mean you can you can
Speaker 6: tell when he's out there. Yeah, you can tell when
Speaker 6: he's out there. He's not real long armed. And it
Speaker 6: especially in the Houston game where both Anderson and Daniil
Speaker 6: have super long arms, Like it was a giant difference
Speaker 6: in the way.
Speaker 3: They trying to reach for his wallet kind of very similar.
Speaker 3: Here's Will.
Speaker 5: Yeah, punch him, but they leave him out on his
Speaker 5: own out there they don't even have.
Speaker 3: That's not necessarily the case.
Speaker 6: They they will put they will put tight ends over there,
Speaker 6: they will turn protections like it seems like they they
Speaker 6: understand there is a liability out there. And the thing is,
Speaker 6: I don't think that the right tackle is great either.
Speaker 6: That's why I always think that overall their offensive line,
Speaker 6: who's the right is going to be their failure.
Speaker 4: Golly parton, golly Parton, Indiana Jones, guy.
Speaker 3: With a huge set of rocks.
Speaker 1: Wait, I'm not done. Oh, I have questions. But I
Speaker 1: went into my short arm bitting amount of breath like
Speaker 1: Kimber Boy.
Speaker 3: Was gonna say, it'll come to you.
Speaker 2: Hmm, oh, well go ahead.
Speaker 10: We talked about it, but the Steelers are some kind
Speaker 10: of verbal agreement that Mike McCarthy will be their next
Speaker 10: head coach. Ben, you send, it's probably a decent higher.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I actually think it's going to be a better
Speaker 6: higher than most people think.
Speaker 3: He's a He's a heck of a CEO.
Speaker 6: He's definitely proven it at to to franchise, you know,
Speaker 6: blue blood franchises in the NFL. He knows how to
Speaker 6: handle the pressure. I think the difference, I think the
Speaker 6: the interesting part of the hire is going to be
Speaker 6: who he hires for assistant coaches. Do those assistant coaches
Speaker 6: believe that he's going to be there for a long
Speaker 6: long time? Do they believe in what he trying to do?
Speaker 6: He's proven his modern offense at Dallas, so that's not
Speaker 6: a huge concern. The other part of it is, we
Speaker 6: all know that Pittsburgh is very loyal, so if he
Speaker 6: plays his cards right, he could be there for ten
Speaker 6: plus years, you know, retire as a Pittsburgh Steeler coach.
Speaker 6: So I don't think it's a crazy hire. I think
Speaker 6: it makes a lot of sense based on what they
Speaker 6: asked the head coach to do.
Speaker 1: Do you think it makes it any more likely that
Speaker 1: Aaron comes back?
Speaker 3: No? No, I don't know about you.
Speaker 6: Guys, Like I thought, Aaron played well at times, but
Speaker 6: you can't unless you have the right type of receivers
Speaker 6: that can If you had three Jackson Smith and Jigbas
Speaker 6: then it makes sense. But given what they had offensively,
Speaker 6: the ball came out like what under two seconds on
Speaker 6: average or something. It's like the fastest fastest snap to
Speaker 6: delivery in the whole season of any quarterback this year.
Speaker 6: So everything was short and everything was quick. If you
Speaker 6: don't have guys that can get separation and run after catch,
Speaker 6: you got nothing. You're gonna have to go on, you know,
Speaker 6: twelve fourteen play drives just to score, and I think
Speaker 6: you know, over the course of the season. I was
Speaker 6: very bored with their offense. I know everybody's like, well, Neil, look,
Speaker 6: he can still do it. I'm like, yeah, but at
Speaker 6: what level? Not a very high level, certainly not the
Speaker 6: four hundred, five hundred level that he's used to. It
Speaker 6: was like a two hundred level offense. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I didn't think. I was not impressed.
Speaker 2: I remember what I was going to say, Can I
Speaker 2: go backwards?
Speaker 5: He was it about Dolly?
Speaker 2: It was?
Speaker 1: It was no, it was about Sam dar.
Speaker 9: So.
Speaker 1: Looking at his career, we obviously know about fourteen three,
Speaker 1: last year, fourteen three. This year, his first year in
Speaker 1: New York Giants, he was four to nine, Jets him Jets,
Speaker 1: second year seven to six, third year two and ten,
Speaker 1: Calina four and seven, next year, Carolina four and two.
Speaker 1: Then he goes to San Francisco, plays in one game,
Speaker 1: goes on one. Then he comes here fourteen and three,
Speaker 1: thirty five touchdowns, twelve interceptions. Okay, if I were to
Speaker 1: sit down with Koc, just he and I talking to
Speaker 1: each other and say what did you do?
Speaker 2: What do you think he would say?
Speaker 1: Then, m Because there's a giant jump between the man
Speaker 1: we saw last night, the man we saw last year
Speaker 1: and the person he had been before that. What do
Speaker 1: you think he did? What did they change?
Speaker 2: It's a great question, you know, I wish I had
Speaker 2: the correct answer.
Speaker 6: I just I look at him the last couple of
Speaker 6: games in the last couple of years, and you see
Speaker 6: a quarterback that's not panicking.
Speaker 3: And I know that we can.
Speaker 6: Go back to the last two games that he played
Speaker 6: with us, and it seems like that's he was running
Speaker 6: for us.
Speaker 3: He was running for his life.
Speaker 6: Mean, you know, offensive line did not give him any favors,
Speaker 6: but I see a guy that was willing to stand
Speaker 6: in the pocket for for another you know, second to
Speaker 6: deliver the ball. And I think part of it is
Speaker 6: trusting his arm. You know, understand where where his talent lies.
Speaker 6: His talent lives in downfield passing. And if he could
Speaker 6: trust his offensive line and trust that that protection for
Speaker 6: just a half a beat, he can build confidence in
Speaker 6: being an explosive passer. And I think you know who
Speaker 6: who said it last night in the in the game
Speaker 6: was a Brady. You know, he's not a he's not
Speaker 6: a surgical quarterback. He's an explosive quarterback. And I think
Speaker 6: once once he understands that and believes that this is
Speaker 6: who I am, this is what There are some things
Speaker 6: I'm not great at, but there's other things I'm excellent at.
Speaker 6: And if I lean into the things I'm excellent at,
Speaker 6: I can be a really good quarterback. And I think
Speaker 6: taking care of the football and just trusting the fact
Speaker 6: that don't ask me to throw the football for five
Speaker 6: times a game. I'm not surgical like that. You give
Speaker 6: me a couple You could give me a couple of
Speaker 6: shots with the run game worked, the play action all
Speaker 6: hit a few deep balls on you. That's going to
Speaker 6: keep you so off balance and we're going to score
Speaker 6: points and it's not gonna matter at the end of
Speaker 6: the game if I if I throw twenty five times
Speaker 6: or I throw forty five times, I'm giving more productive
Speaker 6: throwing twenty five times.
Speaker 5: And as we know with Kaos, he loves that vertical game,
Speaker 5: loves it, and so it just fits so well for
Speaker 5: what exactly Kaos really wants to do.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and look and look what Kubiak's doing in Seattle.
Speaker 6: I mean, you can't tell me that Kubiak didn't look
Speaker 6: at our game film from last year and be like, ah,
Speaker 6: so that's what Kaos's doing, like, yeah, that's how they
Speaker 6: got the best out of him, you know, And who
Speaker 6: knows if Kubiak had those things built into his playbook,
Speaker 6: he probably added a lot of things like I'm taking
Speaker 6: that concept. I see how Chaos set up that deep
Speaker 6: shot because of the type of runs and the type
Speaker 6: of action that he had.
Speaker 3: So, you know, I'm givin.
Speaker 6: I will still give a lot of credit to Kaos
Speaker 6: for figuring out Sam Donald and that was sort of
Speaker 6: the blueprint. And obviously Kubiak put his own spin on things,
Speaker 6: and then you have to adapt to the players that
Speaker 6: you have on your team. But he certainly showed the
Speaker 6: league the rest of the way and how to handle
Speaker 6: Sam Donald and how to how to make him a great,
Speaker 6: you know, dynamic, elite quarterback the way he is right now?
Speaker 1: Can we is it too simple? Simplifying it too much?
Speaker 1: Ben to say this? He was sacked forty eight times
Speaker 1: last year. Forty eight times last year. This year he
Speaker 1: was sacked twenty seven times. Yeah, if he sacked twenty
Speaker 1: one less times last year.
Speaker 2: Did we make it to the Super Bowl?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I believe that. Do you guys believe that?
Speaker 2: I mean, you talk it makes it, that makes sense.
Speaker 6: You take that one stat which is brilliant to the
Speaker 6: way you brought that up. Like that one stat right
Speaker 6: there tells you so much. What happens if he if
Speaker 6: he is upright twenty one more times?
Speaker 4: What was he sacked in that last game? Nine times?
Speaker 10: And as a lot of people said, the game plan
Speaker 10: was there for koc KOs got those guys open and
Speaker 10: he just missed it. And there were times where he
Speaker 10: was so befuddled standing back there when they were like
Speaker 10: what zero for eight in the red zone? I mean
Speaker 10: you hit two of those, you're in good shape. Yeah,
Speaker 10: you win the game. Yeah, you win the game. You
Speaker 10: get momentum back you don't have. It's not a downhill
Speaker 10: onslaught by the ram I.
Speaker 2: Don't you know what.
Speaker 1: I'll never forget Ben. We were in Cleveland for an
Speaker 1: extended period of time for that and being around him
Speaker 1: a few times, like you know, not like we were
Speaker 1: buddies or hanging out, but just being.
Speaker 2: Around him because you happen to be right.
Speaker 1: I bet I heard him say eight words the entire time,
Speaker 1: and my initial thought was, well, this guy's not a leader, right,
Speaker 1: but not everybody's a loud vocal leader, right, correct.
Speaker 3: I mean, do you guys see it. Did you see
Speaker 3: his the on field interview that he did right after
Speaker 3: the game.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, just completely Stowe, you know, yeah, just obviously
Speaker 6: he's taking it in. But I just I don't know,
Speaker 6: I love that. I just I think that is the
Speaker 6: right demeanor that you need to have as a quarterback.
Speaker 5: You know, also be because of what they did in
Speaker 5: New York to him. Yeah, it's true that media just
Speaker 5: is awful. So I'm sure he's a little though, right.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Donald did play a couple of the hits, So I
Speaker 7: would love just once for a quarterback attended to the
Speaker 7: super Bowl to go, this isn't a special group.
Speaker 4: These are not the guys I would like to do
Speaker 4: this with. You know what I'm saying?
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, because Tom RENOLDI was like, is this a
Speaker 7: special group? Yes, yeah, there's a special group. Anybody else
Speaker 7: you'd rather do this with? No, No, this is the
Speaker 7: group I want to do this with. Well, awesome, Corey.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to read your book about the Power Trips.
Speaker 7: Hawk's been around Sam Donald a lot and he only
Speaker 7: said like eight words. I believe you have the opportunity
Speaker 7: to be the Sam Donald of the Power Trip Mornings.
Speaker 4: Do you want me to say less? What now?
Speaker 2: I agree?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 4: Tom got me and Tom Shan on the same page.
Speaker 11: More of the Power Trip Morning Show after this on
Speaker 11: the thing, I'm right.
Speaker 1: Paltripmores here, we are seven forty seven, and we can
Speaker 1: do some Vikings news, but I just will say instead,
Speaker 1: thank you so much to Radco. We love you, Thank
Speaker 1: you for bringing us Vikings news all the time. Ben.
Speaker 1: Do you believe that it's it's a done deal now
Speaker 1: that for us we'll be back as our defensive coordinator
Speaker 1: or do you think they're still a head coaching job
Speaker 1: that's available to him?
Speaker 9: No?
Speaker 3: I do, I do.
Speaker 6: I would put it at you know, ninety five plus
Speaker 6: percent that he's back as a defensive coordinator.
Speaker 3: I just don't even see that.
Speaker 6: I mean, they're it's so hard to keep secrets in
Speaker 6: the NFL, and if he hasn't gotten a sniff from
Speaker 6: these other teams, I don't think he's going to Arizona.
Speaker 6: I don't think he's going to go to the Raiders.
Speaker 6: Like if those were hot Runners before him and he
Speaker 6: was doing multiple interviews, they would say, Okay, there's an
Speaker 6: open chance. But it seemed like his only opportunity was
Speaker 6: was Pittsburgh in Baltimore.
Speaker 2: Why do you think you did get it?
Speaker 5: He's suing the people answer, I think they got it.
Speaker 3: I mean, that's got to be a factor. It's got
Speaker 3: to be a factor.
Speaker 6: But I just I just feel like now it's it's
Speaker 6: becoming less and less of a factor. So but that's
Speaker 6: just my gut, that's just my gut belief. I don't know.
Speaker 6: Sometimes it's just a feel and they're like, Okay, well,
Speaker 6: you know, you look at Pittsburgh situation. They have gone
Speaker 6: you know, they they've been on a defensive minded head
Speaker 6: coach for how many decades? And I think they just
Speaker 6: I'm sure people in the organization are like, listen, our
Speaker 6: offense was a problem. You know, our offense was not great.
Speaker 6: It was just okay, like we need to bring somebody
Speaker 6: in that's a little more offensive minded. So they bring
Speaker 6: in Mike McCarthy that can both be a CEO and
Speaker 6: be an offensive minded coach. Like it does sort of
Speaker 6: make sense that they lean that direction. Now, it's you
Speaker 6: can rip on them for getting the type of person.
Speaker 6: You know, a sixty year old coach that that's been there,
Speaker 6: done that, and not go with some of these younger,
Speaker 6: younger offensive minded coaches. But I understand why they went.
Speaker 6: They leaned offense in that situation.
Speaker 3: So I don't know.
Speaker 6: Sometimes is this timing and circumstance. Speaking of rumors, Joe Burrow,
Speaker 6: you think we're going to get him? I don't know,
Speaker 6: I don't. I mean, it's a fun game to play, right,
Speaker 6: It's a fun game to play, and and you know,
Speaker 6: this is the time of year that we start doing
Speaker 6: that stuff, and you know, I don't you know, the
Speaker 6: the rumors with them, you know, Jordan Addison being a
Speaker 6: part of it and all this other stuff. And I'm like, well,
Speaker 6: why would they do that, Like they already have they
Speaker 6: already have receivers, and I know that, like they'd be
Speaker 6: in exchange for t Higgins or so I saw that
Speaker 6: exchange as well, Like, so you want to bring on
Speaker 6: a you want to take our quarterback that is unproven
Speaker 6: and then a receiver that you're going to have to
Speaker 6: pay because he's going into his fifth year, so he's
Speaker 6: not you're not going to trade for the guy. Just
Speaker 6: do a one year rental, like you're gonna pay another
Speaker 6: high price receiver, then get rid of a high price receiver.
Speaker 3: And get rid of your franchise quarterback. Does it's silliness?
Speaker 3: It doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 7: Two days ago, Sauce tweeted, the Vikings are instantly super
Speaker 7: Bowl contenders with Burrow, they'd have the best quarterback in
Speaker 7: the division and maybe the conference.
Speaker 4: But why would the Bengals move on from him?
Speaker 2: I stand by all that. Yeah, I would stand yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 2: you can stand by that.
Speaker 7: Right before that, you tweeted this, and I'm going to
Speaker 7: read it exactly how you tweeted it. Okay, Sauce tweeted
Speaker 7: two plus days ago. If and it's a big if,
Speaker 7: if the Vikings are going to trade for Burrow and
Speaker 7: that floated packed is real, you do it in a second.
Speaker 7: If healthy Burrow is a top five quarterback in the league.
Speaker 6: Well, the thing is, I'm with you. The path for
Speaker 6: us is great. Yeah, you know, floading packed, we would
Speaker 6: get Joe Burrow. It doesn't make any sense from their standpoint.
Speaker 7: Like so the package, right was McCarthy Grenard in multiple firsts, Right,
Speaker 7: that's what was getting.
Speaker 4: Floated, and Grenard responded to us, I.
Speaker 7: Saw that because everybody was saying have fun in Cincinnati.
Speaker 7: That was That was Twitter's response to Grenard. Anyway, let's
Speaker 7: let's say that floated packed was real McCarthy, Grenard and
Speaker 7: two or three future first for Burrow in or out.
Speaker 3: A man.
Speaker 5: Muss I personally am out on that one. The one
Speaker 5: thing is that when Burrow is on the field, he
Speaker 5: is fantastic, and he's one of the top five.
Speaker 2: I totally agree with you.
Speaker 5: If healthy healthy, So we're gonna we're gonna trade unhealthy quarterback.
Speaker 5: We already have to get another one coming in.
Speaker 10: Yes, yes, do it right now. Yeah, I'm on the phone,
Speaker 10: I speak Grenard. But you do that if they call
Speaker 10: you when we're like, yeah, hey, this is what we
Speaker 10: want you, you don't even hang up. You go sounds good,
Speaker 10: sure we're in. You never hang up.
Speaker 4: No, you do it in a second. You don't even
Speaker 4: counter off. You don't even counter off.
Speaker 1: Why would you.
Speaker 10: Negotiate so poorly because I'm not allowed to what else
Speaker 10: be d eyes?
Speaker 2: Your scenarios are not very kind.
Speaker 7: No, and it doesn't have to be within one second.
Speaker 7: You can take a breath and think it through and
Speaker 7: talk to people.
Speaker 10: Don't you what am I must playing password? Hey, bend
Speaker 10: your hands up.
Speaker 6: How many of you guys in the first also say,
Speaker 6: the first half of the game yesterday, the Broncos Patriots game,
Speaker 6: We're like, Vikings have to trade for Stidham, anybody, no, nobody, No.
Speaker 4: I was cheer.
Speaker 6: I thought for sure when he when he looked like
Speaker 6: when he had that that nice pass down the field
Speaker 6: was to Mims.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was like, oh boy, here we go on.
Speaker 6: We're gonna go on on X and it's just going
Speaker 6: to be all the Vikings fans like he's got to
Speaker 6: be in purple next year. I'm like, well, we're going
Speaker 6: to trade for the guy. But you know, let's see
Speaker 6: how he plays the rest of the.
Speaker 7: Game, all right hand, before you cement any Stidham or
Speaker 7: Burrow or any Vikings quarterback opinions, before you just lock
Speaker 7: it in. Factor this in a little over two days ago,
Speaker 7: Sauce two did this F one is an outstanding movie.
Speaker 4: It is really good. I don't know about best picture,
Speaker 4: but it's a good movie. Damned by it, dude.
Speaker 10: It's it's basically like a rocky movie, but it's outstanding. Y.
Speaker 5: You don't even have to like forula, dude.
Speaker 4: It's so racy. Yeah, he's great.
Speaker 5: Remember I watched it with my pants done?
Speaker 4: Wow?
Speaker 2: Was that sachs, that must I need to tell us that.
Speaker 3: Okay, now I'm waiting for the backup.
Speaker 4: But no, it was it.
Speaker 3: No, that's it. You got nothing else that because.
Speaker 5: My wife and I we had like a packed we
Speaker 5: hadn't a chord.
Speaker 4: Yeah you had a package. Yeah that you didn't want
Speaker 4: to see.
Speaker 5: It said, okay, we're finally empty nesters. Let's watch a movie.
Speaker 5: She said, yes, what days before? And so then when
Speaker 5: I sit down, when we started the movie, up you're nude.
Speaker 5: I stand up and I just dropped trow and she
Speaker 5: looks at me.
Speaker 3: She took a dump.
Speaker 5: She goes, what what are you doing? And I'm like,
Speaker 5: but you agreed. I thought we had an accord. She's like,
Speaker 5: I'm not doing that.
Speaker 7: So then I ask your question, how many times during
Speaker 7: this conversation did you say the word a chord?
Speaker 3: So many times?
Speaker 5: I was trying to figure out exactly why I was
Speaker 5: choosing that word. She said, what are you a pirate?
Speaker 5: What do you need a chord?
Speaker 3: So you had a proclamation, but she didn't sign it.
Speaker 5: No, it was an agreement, just half for your cord.
Speaker 5: So then I just sat there and watched the entire
Speaker 5: movie two and a half hour's worth of red Pit.
Speaker 4: Must just watched Rivalry with her. It'll work.
Speaker 5: Dude.
Speaker 2: You were nude? I was well, No, I was pool

Speaker 2: she had wanted nothing to do with it.
Speaker 3: Did you butt stamp your couch?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: You know that's commitment to a bit.
Speaker 4: Yeah, why were your slack?
Speaker 1: And I usually respected, but not this time.
Speaker 4: We have a chord.
Speaker 3: But the movie is fantastic.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's so good.
Speaker 2: For sure.
Speaker 7: You weren't distracted in any way or frustrated in any way.
Speaker 5: Man, I did sit there like this, my arms like
Speaker 5: this mad because.
Speaker 2: I don't blame him.
Speaker 7: She wasn't paying attention to your cord so that it
Speaker 7: wasn't the only one driving stick, right you want? So
Speaker 7: you got naked and distracted your wife with Javier bar

Speaker 4: start doing acid.
Speaker 10: Yeah, the first three seasons are outstand as it's it's yeah,
Speaker 10: it's not like a happy go lucky show either, certainly not.
Speaker 1: Hey, I had an emailer tell me, by the way,
Speaker 1: that Gray's Abel's not the only North Dakota State player
Speaker 1: that is going to the Super Bowl. The starting center
Speaker 1: who is now on IR but started eleven games for
Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks, Jail and Sundell was also in North
Speaker 1: Dakota State.

Speaker 2: I did not know that.
Speaker 7: I didn't either, And a lot of talent in that
Speaker 7: dakotas a program there.

Speaker 6: many North Kota State guys representing him too?
Speaker 3: On the same how many?
Speaker 2: Well, we have a boy, there's.
Speaker 10: Another guy that I think is like on the practice
Speaker 10: squad or something. He's like a third or fourth string
Speaker 10: tight end. I think that plays for Seattle.
Speaker 3: That was a Gopher.
Speaker 6: Yeah, curious now how many Gophers and how many Bison
Speaker 6: are going to the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. Somebody else do the work. I'm

Speaker 7: the Super Bowl.
Speaker 4: Benjamin looks like we do.
Speaker 2: Ye don't know.

Speaker 10: Well, how quickly can we bet Tommy that the current
Speaker 10: quarterback won't be a first round pick?
Speaker 4: Drake Lindsay, Yeah, I just assumed we already made that
Speaker 4: bad ye.
Speaker 2: Speaking of bets, do I have AFC or NFC?
Speaker 4: You I think you have the hold on one of
Speaker 4: the two.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you and I made that number.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I had the NFC.
Speaker 2: I think you did too, Yeah, done.
Speaker 4: It, didn't you do?
Speaker 2: The New England game a couple of weeks ago, NFC
