1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: Fan Louis will join from more tropical climbs beginning at 2 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: about five thirty. A lot of Minnesota Wild discussion. They're 3 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: back in action tonight. Correct, they start the road. It's 4 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: a five game road trip. ITA's Dallas tonight. Ben Lieber 5 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: is with US now via the Kinnectico Water Systems Highline. 6 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: He joins US weekly thanks to our good friends at 7 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: the Sierra and he is especially Sierra Nevada Brewing Company. 8 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 1: I got an interesting toss up question from a Texter 9 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: who wants to know who you think, as of today 10 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: is the best team in the National Football League. 11 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 2: Oh that's a good question. Wow. 12 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 3: I mean could it be the Colts? 13 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 2: I mean the Colts or the Seahawks. 14 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 3: I mean. 15 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 2: They can run the football and they can throw the ball, 16 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 2: and their defensive defenses are playing well. So I know 17 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 2: it's kind of obscure to think at the beginning of 18 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 2: the season that we would automatically say the Eagles and 19 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 2: the Chiefs or something like that. But I think the 20 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: way that both of those teams can find some balance, 21 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 2: I would say probably the Colts and Seahawks. 22 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: Give you a nugget on the on the Colts that 23 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: got my attention a little bit because you say, as 24 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: you say, they're off to a great start, they have 25 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: lost one game, they're five to one. I'm going to 26 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: give you their scoring totals so far this year thirty three, 27 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: twenty nine, twenty forty and thirty one, and that allegedly 28 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: is the through six games, the most points total points 29 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: that the Colts have scored in team history. And they've had, 30 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 1: obviously Peyton Manning, a couple of good quarterbacks. So they 31 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 1: are Yeah, I don't know, again, is it sustainable? You 32 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: look at who they played a little up and down there. 33 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,679 Speaker 1: You know, there's Tennessee in there. Maybe the best team 34 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: they've played they lost to, that's the Rams. But we 35 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: got to say that our guy who maybe did pick 36 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: up some things from the whisperer here, Danny Dimes, has 37 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: been outstanding for them. 38 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 4: He's been unbelievable. 39 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 2: I know, and I'm sure that you saw that quote 40 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 2: that he was talking about his time here, short time 41 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 2: here in Minnesota last week. He was talking about it 42 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 2: and he has basically said, you know, I thought I 43 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 2: was watching him preparing the way a pro should when 44 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,119 Speaker 2: he was with New York, but come to find out 45 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 2: the way that they do things here in Minnesota, is 46 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 2: like it just kind of took my preparation to a 47 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 2: whole other level. The way they talked in meetings, the 48 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 2: way they quizzed each other, the way that they watched film, 49 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 2: and so it's it's wild to think that, yeah, we 50 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 2: we give so much credit to the staff or what 51 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 2: these guys are doing on the field, but I guess 52 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 2: you know, we haven't dove that deeply in what they 53 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 2: do differently than other teams, you know, kind of behind 54 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 2: the scenes. 55 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: Under the oddest injury department. Uh, we we have to mention, 56 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: are you from Are you aware of the injury that 57 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson, the guy that Jones beat out to be 58 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: the starting quarterback this year, his latest injury. 59 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, And let me just be real honest, whenever I 60 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 2: use those elasti bands or whatever they are, Yes, that 61 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 2: is something that I'm always I've always been worried about 62 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 2: that interesting, even though it's never never happened to me. Well, 63 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: you know, some of the like the cheap o ye 64 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 2: elastic bands they have broken on me before, but just 65 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 2: doing like me, be like a leg exercise or something, 66 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 2: so it didn't never hurt. But yeah, when when ever 67 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 2: you're pulling that thing like towards your face, I'm like 68 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 2: kind of closing my eyes, like I hope this thing 69 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 2: doesn't snap and hit me. 70 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 1: In the in the eye like it Well, let me 71 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: let's remind folks who maybe don't know the story. He 72 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: gets a suffers and an orbital fracture to his face 73 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 1: in a pregame incident. So he the way it's been described, 74 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: a pole that he had fixed an elastic stretch band 75 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: to snapped during what is I guess is usual pregame routine, 76 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: and as a result, the pole then smashes into his face. 77 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: As I understand it, I mean, it's it sounds bizarre. 78 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 4: I guess. 79 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: The bands are used by all the Colts quarterbacks in 80 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: the same manner before all practices and games, often tied 81 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: to the goalpost. In this case, I think the incident 82 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: occurred in the locker room where the stretching routine sometimes 83 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: takes place as well. Spot sounds about as freaky as 84 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: you can get. 85 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, it really does. And I was before I heard that. 86 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 2: I didn't know that part of the detail about the 87 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,280 Speaker 2: about the post, but in my mind, because I knew 88 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 2: that the elastic band was not going to cause the fracture. 89 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 2: I mean, I've always thought the last band, it's like 90 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 2: hit me in the eye and hurt my eyeball. But 91 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 2: I thought it was like, you know, a lot of 92 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 2: times they're kind of fashioned with the care beaner or 93 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 2: something like that. So when I when I heard that 94 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: it was had something to do with the elastic band, 95 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, well, maybe like the care beaner 96 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 2: broke off or something and it was a metal clip 97 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 2: that hit him. But I mean, I don't know how 98 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 2: you know, a piece of the post or whatever it was. 99 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 3: A fix to. 100 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 2: I don't know how that comes apart. But yeah, it's wild. 101 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: And obviously you know the the injury that they had 102 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 2: to the other player in pre game as well, Yeah, 103 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 2: that's because it happened over there. 104 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: Very strange. The weirdest injury Ben Leber or freakiest injury 105 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 1: Ben Lieber ever suffered at any level. 106 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 2: Man, you know, nothing, nothing freakish. 107 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 3: Really. 108 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 2: Everything was kind of just like, you know, really football related. 109 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 2: I mean we've all had those instances who were like, 110 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 2: oh my gosh. 111 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: I'm just a clumsy fool. 112 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, never to the point where I was deemed injured, 113 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:14,799 Speaker 2: you know, so no, I wish I had a crazy 114 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 2: story for you. 115 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all right. We'll get one from maybe and 116 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: you can kind of coct one for the next time 117 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: we talk. All right, So you know, the number one 118 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: story this week is going to be who ends up 119 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: starting a quarterback. I believe it's likely Wentz is going 120 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 1: to start, and I think it's going to be not 121 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: because the Vikings, especially Koc does not want to bring 122 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 1: JJ back, but because I think he's going to adhere 123 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: to the mantra of I got to see full participation 124 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: and you know, full a full week of of the 125 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: work I expect from the starting quarterback and he's back, 126 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: I think, But to me, it feels like they're still 127 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 1: trying to ease him back to be sure. So I 128 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: think it's likely that Wentz is going to start. What 129 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: do you think, you know? 130 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 2: I mean, the closer that we get to this game 131 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 2: and the more they're coming out of there bye week 132 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 2: and we're still hearing the same I think very particular 133 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: terminology being used to assess our quarterback situation. I mean, 134 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: it definitely feels like they're cushioning the blow for the 135 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 2: idea that that Wentz is going to be the starter, 136 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 2: even though you know he was. He said that both 137 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 2: of them are banking the shoulder injury, and you know, 138 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: he's gotta he's got to go back, come back to 139 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 2: practice and prove that he can take every every rep 140 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 2: in practice and see how he looks too. But you know, 141 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 2: we've kind of heard this whole, this whole phrasing of like, well, 142 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 2: we need to see him play a full week, a 143 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 2: full week of practice, and it's got to look what 144 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: we wanted to look. It does seem like to me 145 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 2: that they're sort of massaging this idea of like, well, 146 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 2: see we we said, you know, he's got to have 147 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 2: a full week, and he's just not quite ready. And 148 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: then you know, this is something that Meat Sauce and 149 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 2: I talked about as well, and you know, he brought 150 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 2: a great point with a short week afterwards, and it's like, well, 151 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: if you consider a full week of practice the best 152 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 2: way to get ready for a game, but then obviously 153 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 2: the game against the Chargers. If if JJ is not 154 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 2: playing in this game against the Eagles, well then most 155 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 2: likely he's not going to play against the Chargers. That's 156 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 2: not even that's not even a full week of practice. 157 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 2: And and really it's not even you know, I think 158 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 2: real game like reps during that shortened week. 159 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: I'm with you as I I feel strongly whoever starts 160 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 1: this game will start the next one. And I think 161 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: even more strongly if the if the Vikings win, if 162 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: it's Wentz and they win, and he's good to very good, 163 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: I don't think as any way that you don't start 164 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 1: in the next game. That to me, Seefer and I 165 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: were talking about this earlier today and and he thinks, 166 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: and I agree with this, that that's that. Really, you've 167 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: got two more weeks to play with this under these circumstances, 168 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: and then it's after that. It's at that point it's 169 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: either going to be it's JJ's team, We're back to it, 170 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: or then it gets It does get a little bit 171 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: funky that you given the scheduling quirk and given the 172 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: fact that he's still not you know, has not participated 173 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 1: fully in anything. I mean, you heard the head coach, 174 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,359 Speaker 1: I think it was yesterday, say guys had one practice 175 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: since the Bears game. And that to me was another 176 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: emphasis on his part, as if to say, well, come on, 177 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 1: nobody's being realistic here. I'm not going to just throw 178 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: them to the Wolves out here. So I think that's 179 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: when after you get after the Chargers game, because then 180 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 1: you got a long gap, right because it's a Thursday 181 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 1: night game until your next game. That to me is 182 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: where the rubber is going to meet the road on. Ultimately, 183 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 1: who's going to be the starting quarterback for this team 184 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: the rest of the season. 185 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you know, what you and Kevin talked 186 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 2: about is completely accurate. I mean, yes, there are there 187 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 2: are circumstances that we have to account for here, but 188 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 2: you know, it is I don't know. I guess for me, 189 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 2: it's a little it's it's interesting, I think is the 190 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 2: generic term. I'm I'm curious about what's really going on. 191 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 2: It feels like to me that there's there's right, there's 192 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 2: like an opening to question what's going on behind the scenes. 193 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 2: And I think that, you know, this organization has given 194 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 2: us nothing but you know, truthful stuff about any sort 195 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 2: of injury or situation. So I don't think that they're 196 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 2: purposely being like deceitful, but you know, I think it's 197 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 2: it's fair to question, like, Okay, what's up with the terminology? 198 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 2: You know, what's up with the uh? Why do we 199 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 2: feel like, you know, there was so much love and 200 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 2: adoration for JJ and what was going on in the 201 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 2: off season, and now we know that you didn't play 202 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 2: great for two games, and now we know that there's 203 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 2: an ankle injury. But I think everybody again speculates that 204 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 2: the ankle injury is not that severe, right that you know, 205 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 2: if you were if you were a solid starter for 206 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 2: seventeen games the year before and you suffered the same injury, 207 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: you know, would you take the same approach of waiting 208 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 2: until you're one hundred percent and had a full week 209 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 2: of practice to be ready. I don't know. You know, 210 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 2: obviously we're not in that situation, but it makes me 211 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 2: think that, you know, it's an it's an awfully over 212 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 2: you know, over protective approach. It sounds like, and I 213 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: just kind of want to know, like what the. 214 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: Real reason that's fair to say. I think you're right 215 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: based on when when you factor in, as you mentioned, 216 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: the build up and all the things that were said 217 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: and allegedly believed in the offseason as well, I think 218 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:29,839 Speaker 1: that's that's more than fair. 219 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 4: Toss up Eagles question. 220 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: A team that has lost its last two games after 221 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: winning its first four, not even particularly competitive against the 222 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 1: Giants after blowing a fourth quarter lead against the Broncos. 223 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: Is this the best time to face the Eagles or 224 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: the worst? 225 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 2: Well, I mean I suppose it's probably the best time. 226 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 2: I mean, if if you flip it on in the 227 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 2: other way, do you want to catch them on a 228 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 2: heater where they one five in a row and they 229 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: feel themselves and you're like, oh, boy, like this just 230 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 2: seems like an unstoppable freight train coming at us. So no, 231 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 2: I think this is a good time to get them. 232 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 2: They're banged up on the defensive front. You know, we 233 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,119 Speaker 2: all know the news about Zadarius Smith is abrupt retirement. 234 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 2: They were hurting obviously. The reason they brought him in 235 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 2: is because they were lacking some edge pressure. And now 236 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 2: they're really gonna be lacking for premier pass rushers on 237 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 2: the outside. They've got some injuries on the inside part 238 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 2: the defensive line as well, and that really was their 239 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 2: calling card, you know last year, you know the way 240 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 2: that those guys played up front, I mean that really 241 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 2: helped to propel them into the Super Bowl, and it 242 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 2: made their defense so dominant. And now you're getting these 243 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 2: this opportunity where opposing quarterbacks are going a lot more 244 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 2: time in the pocket. They have some injuries on the 245 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 2: corner spot as well. The reserves are not playing up 246 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 2: to their standards, and so they're kind of a hot 247 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 2: mess defense. And then you know, it's widely been reported 248 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 2: about the disgruntled receivers that they have, and if you 249 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 2: watch the game, you're you're watching Jalen Hurts miss open target, 250 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 2: especially down the field. They're they're hit percentage on deep 251 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 2: balls has not been good this year. They have a 252 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,600 Speaker 2: new coordinator, a new offensive coordinator that a lot of 253 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 2: Eagles fans feel like he didn't deserve that role, especially 254 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 2: with this type of team. They kind of feel like 255 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 2: you handed the keys over to a sixteen year old 256 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 2: new driver and it's the key to a Lamborghini, and 257 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 2: it's like, what are you doing, Like we know that 258 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 2: you can probably drive, but this is a high performance vehicle. 259 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 2: And you watch some of the plate sequencing and a 260 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:35,960 Speaker 2: lot of people question, like, yeah, you might be able 261 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: to call a play in practice and build a script, 262 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 2: but you know, when it gets hot and heavy in 263 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 2: the game, it seems like he sort of loses the rhythm. 264 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 2: So they got a lot going on over there, and 265 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 2: I would say this is a good time to hit them. 266 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: They got an excellent running back who has not had 267 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: an excellent season, right, and the assumption is they're going 268 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: to try to challenge the Vikings because the Vikings have 269 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 1: not been particularly good against the run compared to what 270 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: we you know, what they can be at their best 271 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: certainly and what they were as recently as as last season. 272 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 4: What's your best theory? 273 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 3: Is it? 274 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 1: You view it as, look, we got a couple of 275 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 1: obviously important linebackers out that hopefully are heading now closer 276 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: to returning, and that that has changed everything. Is it 277 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: more stuff that's happening at the line of scrimmage in 278 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: terms of the ground game, the difficulty handling the ground 279 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: game in several games this season. 280 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 2: Well, I think every coach will probably tell you that 281 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 2: stopping the run is not just one guy. I mean, 282 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 2: you do have to have certain gap fits and you've 283 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 2: got to be sound in those areas, and so you know, 284 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 2: it's not just it's never about one guy. But you know, 285 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 2: getting the guy like Blake Cashman back if he does 286 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 2: play this this Sunday, I mean, I think it does 287 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 2: give you just a little bit different dynamic. I think 288 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 2: he's you know, it's slightly taller, slightly longer. I think 289 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 2: he does a little bit better job of getting off 290 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 2: blocks and attacking the run game, and so yeah, that 291 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 2: that will help. But you know, I've seen this defensive 292 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 2: line at times just get flat out pushed back, and 293 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 2: I've seen linebackers kind of get swallowed up because there's 294 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,239 Speaker 2: getting getting too much of their own defensive linemen. 295 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 3: In their lap. 296 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 2: And so I think that you know, we got we 297 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 2: have to penetrate better. It's certainly going to be a 298 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 2: huge test to stop Saquon, and they feel like on 299 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: the other side that they haven't been using him as much. 300 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 2: So all of a sudden, now are you do? You 301 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 2: have to prepare for him to get twenty five to 302 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 2: thirty carries this game, plus some passes thrown away. I mean, 303 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 2: I don't know how this coordinator is going to respond 304 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 2: to all this press that he's the negative press that 305 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 2: he's getting about not using Saquon. So I would I'd 306 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 2: buckle up, I'd get my chin strap ready. You know 307 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 2: that this is an offensive line. Even though they're kind 308 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 2: of beat up, they're going to get downhill on you 309 00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 2: and you certainly after that Falcons game. Not let this 310 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 2: offense here and get right and run for two hundred 311 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 2: yards on the ground. 312 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: I asked Kevin this. I'll ask you as well. Another 313 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: NFC North team played last night. The Bears came from 314 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 1: behind and at the buzzer, and they get a great 315 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: gift to late fumble in the rain, and then they 316 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: to their credit, I mean, they go right down the 317 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: field basically on the ground, and they're so they're able 318 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: to kill the clock and set up for a game 319 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: winning field goal at the buzzer against the former forty 320 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: nine ers kinner kicker who's quite maligned out there, and 321 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: he'd had one blocked earlier in the game, and he 322 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: kicks a shorter field goal to win the game. So 323 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 1: you got no below five hundred teams in this division. 324 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 1: I think we all thought it was going to be 325 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: a deep division. I still don't sure. I'm sure I 326 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: trust the Bears yet, although maybe they are starting. They 327 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: won three in a row, and they've got New Orleans 328 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: at home next week, so I got a good shot 329 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: at four in a row. How do you view Is 330 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,520 Speaker 1: there any I guess significant difference between how you viewed 331 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 1: this division before the season began and what you have 332 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 1: seen within the division so far, you know, the way. 333 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 2: It's sort of right in itself, it's really no surprise. 334 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 2: I mean, Detroit new coordinators. You knew it was going 335 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 2: to take a couple of weeks for them to get 336 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 2: the feet underneath them, and it certainly seems like they have. 337 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 2: And with Ben Johnson, you expected their offense again, same thing, like, 338 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 2: maybe be a little bit rocky to start until they 339 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 2: figure out what Caleb does really well and you know 340 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 2: how they can best use their pieces. I think the 341 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 2: surprise was how fast Green Bay started the season, But again, 342 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,360 Speaker 2: I think they're kind of regressing back just a little bit, 343 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 2: just a touch, to a point now where it is 344 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 2: going to be a highly highly competitive division and I 345 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 2: don't think that there's any clear cut, true, you know 346 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 2: winner right now that's playing the best ball. I think 347 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 2: Detroit's record obviously they love that, but they definitely have 348 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 2: some holes in their game, and I definitely think that 349 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,440 Speaker 2: any one of the three teams could end up on top. 350 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's sort of the beauty of it. I 351 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:11,400 Speaker 1: guess the a lot of the quarterback discussion that we've 352 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 1: had going back to the start of the show, was 353 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: playing off of a comment from KOC I think he 354 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: said this Monday yesterday, and he was talking about what 355 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 1: McCarthy has done in his off time when he has 356 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,439 Speaker 1: not been well enough to play or even to be 357 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 1: a big part of practice. So I guess that changed 358 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 1: during the bye week. And O'Connell said, regarding what McCarthy 359 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 1: watched from Wentz his three week of stint is the QB. 360 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,199 Speaker 1: One of the things he took away from watching Carson 361 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: play was the power of completions that don't always go 362 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 1: to the first or second progression. Might be TJ helping 363 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: out on a protection critical twelve yard gain, blah blahlah 364 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. So from your perspective here, what's the 365 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 1: message that's being delivered there by the head coach? 366 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 4: Is it all right? 367 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: I'm a home run guy, and I love the home run, 368 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: and I like zinging the ball over the place. But 369 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 1: what I really need right now, maybe in part because 370 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: my offensive line is still not quite healthy and at 371 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: times has been a mess with with backup players, is 372 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: I don't care if it doesn't look very if we're 373 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: if we're boring the other team to death with five 374 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: and seven yard passes. I'm fine with that a while, 375 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: and that that's sort of whenever McCarthy gets back, he 376 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 1: wants McCarthy to understand as well, what did you make 377 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: of it? 378 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 2: I think that's I think that's really smart coaching because 379 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 2: you look at and I don't I don't blame McCarthy 380 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 2: for thinking that, Well, I'm in a big play offense. 381 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 2: I mean, every every quarterback that has played under koc 382 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 2: has had the ability and shown the ability to throw 383 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,360 Speaker 2: the deep ball and get down the field, and that's 384 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,480 Speaker 2: kind of what our mo is. And you have a 385 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 2: whole year watching Sam Darnold do that and you're like, dang, 386 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 2: I mean that's if that's the way he wants it 387 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 2: to look, then got it. I'm gonna try to he's 388 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: as the coach and try to do those things. But 389 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 2: I think that we've seen with with Wentz, whether or 390 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 2: not that's just a product of him and his abilities, 391 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 2: or it's also a byproduct of having a banged up 392 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 2: offensive line, but getting completions checkdowns are fine. It is like, yes, 393 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 2: it doesn't feel like the offense is winning, but if 394 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 2: you're getting six seven yards and a checkdown and you're 395 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 2: able to move the chain to not put yourself in 396 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 2: third longs. Then that that is winning football. And don't 397 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: forget that you have guys that can that can run 398 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 2: after catch. And so I understand both sides of it. 399 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 2: I understand where JJ is coming from of just like, okay, 400 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 2: this is how it's always looked. 401 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 1: I got to I got to be this guy. 402 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 2: And then you're getting out there and you're like, Okay, 403 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 2: I might be slightly overwhelmed, and maybe I'm not as 404 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 2: risky right now taking some of those deeper shots and 405 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 2: don't trust myself quite yet, or maybe my offensive line 406 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 2: hasn't protected me what I want to take those deep shots. 407 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 2: I do need to disunderstand that there's always going to 408 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 2: be an outlet and really understanding even if the outlet 409 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 2: is after your third Rea, just get to it, get 410 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 2: to your outlet, get to your checkdown, and learn to 411 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 2: live another another down. And I think it's smart. We 412 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 2: saw our own defense struggle with it with Aaron Rodgers, 413 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 2: and again, it might not be sexy, that might not 414 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 2: be exactly what we want to see and we have seen, 415 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 2: but it can win football game. 416 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 3: Well. 417 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 1: You know, it's funny because I saw Aikman was talking 418 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 1: about this last night. I think the Bears at one 419 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: point went for two and they didn't get the completion. 420 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: I don't remember what Caleb did, if he threw it 421 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: in complete pass or got sacked. I don't even recall 422 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: it happened in the play, but they when Aikman replayed it, 423 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: he immediately saw the Bears. They got a rookie running 424 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: back whose name escapes me, and he flared out to 425 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: the right, and if Caleb literally throws the ball almost 426 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:51,360 Speaker 1: as quickly as he gets it hiked to him, it's 427 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 1: two points, and it is. It was a reminder to 428 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 1: me of often guys are open until they're not, and 429 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: sometimes if you wait to the opening you have is 430 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: going to disappear. And that's one of those lessons that 431 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: I think the smart quarterbacks figure out, even if it 432 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: doesn't look that cool, because it's it was gonna be 433 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: a quick flare pass. You know, it wasn't gonna look 434 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: like anything fancy like Caleb's will Cable throwing. But it 435 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: was the right play because there was the running back 436 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: would have basically walked into the end zone. 437 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I as you're talking about that, I think, 438 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 2: and I look back the game winning touchdown that Jordan 439 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 2: Edison had in London, and you know it, he wasn't 440 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 2: wide open. I mean it was one of those plays 441 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 2: where it had to be bang bangs. You had to 442 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 2: see that corner sit in that sort of cover too 443 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,160 Speaker 2: spot and you know they had the right they had 444 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 2: the right play called against the you know what they 445 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,479 Speaker 2: hoped was the right defense, and you sort of had 446 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 2: to throw it open a little bit. And it's like, 447 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 2: if you right when you see it, just make the 448 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 2: decision and throw it. You know, if if he hesitates 449 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 2: on that on that route, there's a possibility that the 450 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,879 Speaker 2: corner recovers and he's able to get a fingerstip on 451 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 2: that thing and knock the ball away. So I think 452 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 2: in the end you're right. Sometimes it is just the 453 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 2: easier throw, it's the quick throw and. 454 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: Let no question, got to trust it. Last item for 455 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 1: you today, are we seeing b flow talk Today? He 456 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: was asked a lot about Harrison Smith, and the impression 457 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 1: that Jackals got was that you know that that we 458 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: may just see that this isn't just injury, that it 459 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: may well be that you're just going to see Harrison 460 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: more likely in Nickel than necessarily in the base defense, 461 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 1: and I don't think that's illegal. You know, those things 462 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: do happen sometimes as players get longer in the tooth. 463 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 1: But you think that's what we're seeing here a little 464 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 1: bit is we we got some other guys we trust, 465 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: and we still like what Harrison can bring, but maybe 466 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: that he's not going to be quite as much of 467 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,719 Speaker 1: a main guy as he's been before. 468 00:23:58,720 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess. 469 00:23:59,440 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 5: So. 470 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 2: You know, I know that he jokingly talked about it 471 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 2: in that first game that he he came back, and 472 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 2: I think he had I don't know, something like fifteen 473 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 2: snaps in that game, and I think he joking he 474 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 2: said like, yeah, this, this feels right, you know, like 475 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 2: I can I could do this, you know, the rest 476 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 2: of the season. 477 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 3: And so. 478 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, we we do see it with a 479 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 2: lot of other players. I guess I never expected it, 480 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 2: you know, when he made his announcement that he was 481 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 2: coming back for another season and they signed THEO, and 482 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 2: I was like, okay, well that's obviously just insurance, just 483 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 2: because we need safety depth because we lost buying him. 484 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 2: And you know, none of that to me was a 485 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 2: red flag that he was going to be taking significantly 486 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 2: less snaps. But if they feel like theo's doing a 487 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 2: great job and he's kind of picking up right where 488 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 2: Harrison left off, and if they can get some critical 489 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 2: moments and be a playmaker, then why not. You know, 490 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 2: I think he's you know, he's kind of like the 491 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,440 Speaker 2: Terrence Newman. He's kind of like I think even Chad 492 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 2: Greenway had to go through this a little bit at 493 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 2: the end of his career, where he's so valuable from 494 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,679 Speaker 2: a leadership standpoint in the locker room and he's a 495 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 2: true coach on the field that it's important to have 496 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:08,680 Speaker 2: him on the team. But at the same time, if 497 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 2: you can get their best with just fifteen to twenty 498 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 2: snaps a game, then why not go with that approach? 499 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: Well, save the hopsplash player the game. We'll bring that 500 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: back next week because we had no game this week, 501 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: and we will hopefully chat with you on Monday after 502 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: a Vikings Eagles.

Right, It's that That's the beauty 529 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: of it is that somebody, you know, a wife of 530 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: one of the players, comes up with and you go, well, no, 531 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: that's that's that's that's what makes it right.

And by the way, we had either one 605 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: of those quarterbacks, had them both we had them both, 606 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 1: and a Texter was listening, and and and wrote, Anthony 607 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: Richardson's fifth was a fifth overall pick. Colts were not 608 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 1: afraid to switch to Danny Dimes, just like Viiden shouldn't 609 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: have been scared of bringing him in to compete with McCarthy. 610 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: The biggest mistake made in the ponder ear was being 611 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: scared of bringing in any real quarterback competition and being 612 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: scared of ruining his confidence, and Spielman forcing his pick 613 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: to be right, not wanting to admit he made a mistake. 614 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: I'll agree with him to a point, but not completely. 615 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: I think it's a little bit apples and oranges in 616 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 1: that the Colts have already seen a decent amount of Richardson. 617 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: You're seen literally two games of JJ McCarthy. Now, there's 618 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 1: no guarantee he's going to be great. He may end 619 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 1: up being as big a bus as Richardson now appears 620 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: to be at this point. But I think the Colts 621 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: were in a different position than the Vikings were because 622 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 1: they they had more on the Richardson resume from which 623 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: to perhaps be concerned enough to say, we're opening it up. 624 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: We're not going to rule him out. But we're opening 625 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: it up now. Philosophically, I will tell you that I've 626 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 1: always been more of the let's have a competition, and 627 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: so in a perfect world, let's be clear, it was 628 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: going to be almost impossible to re sign Darnold unless 629 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: unless you franchise him, which didn't seem like they were 630 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 1: willing to go down that road. So if you eliminate him, 631 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: then you say, well, what's left. Well you Daniel Jones 632 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: and the Vikings allegedly offered him fifteen million bucks, which 633 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 1: he ultimately turned down to take I believe fourteen million 634 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: dollars from the Colts. Well, why because he knew he 635 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: was going to have a chance to compete for the job. 636 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 1: And the Vikings made it clear that they weren't in 637 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: the same position that the Colts were about their young 638 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: phenom or they're highly drafted a QB. 639 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 4: But the assumption that I'll ask it this. 640 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: Way, the league has evolved to a place where the 641 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: Vikings are doing what most teams do. You draft that 642 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: high and the guy you had the previous year doesn't exist. 643 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: He's gone from the equation because that was Darnald, not 644 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,959 Speaker 1: Danny Dimes. No matter what we think Danny Dimes might 645 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: have had a chance to be if he'd stayed here, right, 646 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 1: He didn't play for us right here, right. So the 647 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 1: Vikings did what most teams do, which is all right, 648 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: we draft that high. 649 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 4: We think he's ready. 650 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: We're not going to bring in any kind of competition 651 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: that gets funky, that causes too much indecision, that causes drama. 652 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 4: We don't want to do that. 653 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: My question is, what if somebody came along that said, 654 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 1: we don't care. 655 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 4: How that's been done before. 656 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: We do think enough of him that we drafted him 657 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: this high, But we're still not going to be afraid. 658 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: If we happen to be in a circumstance where we 659 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: already have another quarterback that we can bring back at 660 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 1: not a great price, but a better price obviously than 661 00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 1: half the price of Sam Darnald. Yep, then we're gonna 662 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: do it, and we're gonna let the chips fall where 663 00:33:56,040 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: they may, and we may at the end, not just 664 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:04,959 Speaker 1: if let's say, in that arrangement, Dimes wins the job 665 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 1: in training camp. I still don't think that has to 666 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 1: mean that we're done with with JJ McCarthy. Right, What 667 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 1: if somebody tried that, could they get away with it. 668 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:17,319 Speaker 1: I know they get pounded to be like, well, you 669 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: create a too much indecision. 670 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:19,959 Speaker 4: You can't do it that way. 671 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: But in the end here, I'm not sure if this 672 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 1: necessarily serves the interest of most teams, even though what 673 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:29,880 Speaker 1: the Vikings did is exactly what most teams do in 674 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: this situation. 675 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 5: Trying to think of other situations like that. You know, 676 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 5: the one that comes to mind would be when the 677 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 5: Seahawks signed Matt Flynn from the Packers for a bunch 678 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 5: of money, remember that, yes, and then drafted Russell Wilson 679 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 5: in the third round and figured out by training camp 680 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 5: that Wilson was the better guy, and they cut their 681 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 5: losses with the high priced guy. 682 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 4: Right. 683 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 5: Maybe that was easier because they'd only have a heard 684 00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 5: round pick invested. But true, it's not the same thing 685 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 5: that you're talking about. But I'm just trying to think 686 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 5: if anybody has ever done it that way. Your Cousins 687 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 5: was drafted later than RG three, didn't play originally because 688 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,399 Speaker 5: RG three was there and was good, and he got 689 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 5: hurt hurt, and then Cousins had to slide in. 690 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: I mean, the Falcons just just did it. 691 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 5: They signed a guy and then drafted the guy and 692 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 5: the guy that was drafted replaced him. So but no 693 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 5: one's done it the way that you're talking about. 694 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 1: I don't think no, that's uh, that's that's it's it raises. 695 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's good fodder. But again, I think 696 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 1: the Colts was this Richardson's third year. 697 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 4: I think so. I don't remember that. 698 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 1: No part of him has has been hurt a lot, 699 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 1: but a lot, but part of it is I think 700 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,280 Speaker 1: I don't even know if if all the same regime 701 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: is still there. I don't think the same coach is 702 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: still there. But regardless, I think they'd had enough time 703 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: go by to say we got to we got to 704 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 1: consider other options here. And we're not excluding Richardson. We're 705 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 1: saying we're opening it up now. That's what we're gonna do. 706 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 1: We haven't seen enough yet of of JJ, even if 707 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 1: what we've seen has been troubling, not nearly enough I 708 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,920 Speaker 1: think to say that the Vikings were in the exact 709 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,879 Speaker 1: same position going into this season that the Colts were 710 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,280 Speaker 1: going into this season. But ultimately Daniel Jones was smart 711 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: and his agent, I'm sure, and said we want to 712 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 1: go play. I want to go play. You got a 713 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: much better chance to play there because here they have 714 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: anointed JJ McCarthy's being the guy. Luigi is coming up next, 715 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 1: lots of hockey conversation six four six, eighty six. If 716 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:26,719 Speaker 1: you have questions or texts, come on. 717 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 6: Wel he sneaks around the world, ride. 718 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 1: The world, no nanny. Well, given that it's forty nine 719 00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 1: degrees and drizzling, you know, you sure as hell know 720 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: he ain't here any longer. 721 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 4: He got out of town just in time. 722 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 1: Although I think we're supposed to head back into the 723 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: seventies later this week. Luigi is joining us from his 724 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm assuming you are you at your abode in Florida. 725 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 3: As we speak, just in time? 726 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: That very good song, There's no question about that. What 727 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 1: are the current conditions where you are? 728 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:24,760 Speaker 3: It was eighty three, It was very nice today. 729 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 1: Eighty three had not. 730 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 3: Too humans, not a human at all. It was it 731 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 3: was a great day. 732 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:31,919 Speaker 1: Well give me. I was talking about that much earlier 733 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 1: when I was laying out the show lineup. So Florida 734 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: can be incredibly humid and uncomfortable, obviously in the middle 735 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 1: of summer. So when are the months where you're kind 736 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 1: of safe that it still might be eighty two degrees, 737 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 1: but you're not gonna have to deal with the steaminess. 738 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 1: Does it start now? Does it start in December? What's 739 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:53,359 Speaker 1: the rule of thumb. 740 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 3: Starting and actually starts in October? Okay, I think from 741 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 3: October right through till even anyway, your humidity is not 742 00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 3: bad at all, and temperatures always good. But humidity doesn't 743 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 3: really come here full board till later in the winter, 744 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,200 Speaker 3: and of course in the spring and summer. But it 745 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,759 Speaker 3: doesn't get really bad. I don't think, at least I 746 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 3: haven't felt it till it starts getting bad maybe mid 747 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 3: May with the youny. Overall, the winterers are really good here. 748 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 3: That's that's one of the good things that's. 749 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: Got might have one of the that might be part 750 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: of the reason you live there as much as you 751 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,320 Speaker 1: do or spend as much time there's yeah, yeah, and 752 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:32,560 Speaker 1: I just one of. 753 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,919 Speaker 3: The reasons, you know, I just enjoy a little better weather. 754 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 3: I went through snow all my life, Yeah, I really do. 755 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 3: I watched this. I watched the local newsm Minnesota every night, 756 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 3: and during the winter. I have to giggle a lot 757 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 3: of times when I see the snow coming down. 758 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 4: That's just so sick. 759 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 3: That's I know it's funny. I get that's sort of 760 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:02,600 Speaker 3: depraved pleasure. It's for me because so many years and 761 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 3: all that's knowing. I said, what am I doing? 762 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's fair. 763 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: It's not like you didn't live it for a long time. 764 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 3: No, but I've had a place down here for fifty 765 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 3: three years. This just became my residence three years ago. 766 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 1: There you go. I think the term is schadenfreude. You've got, really, 767 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 1: you got a lot of schadenfreuda when you see we're 768 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 1: dealing with like a blizzard heading our way at Calcutta 769 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 1: Clipper and you're watching swaying palm trees in the evening 770 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 1: and the temperature is going down to sixty four degrees, right. 771 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 3: I think that that's that's a good accurate description. 772 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 1: That's pretty much the way it works. Texts are already 773 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: pouring in for you. I love this one. How many 774 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 1: Games of the Wild played Louis three? 775 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 3: Three? 776 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,360 Speaker 1: So here's what Nick from Chaska writes. I'd like to 777 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: know if Louis thinks there are any glaring issues with 778 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: the Wild after the first three games. So I guess 779 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 1: he's asking for you to overreact to whatever you have 780 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,319 Speaker 1: seen or what we have seen to this point, when 781 00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,360 Speaker 1: it's just three out of this year eighty two, I. 782 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,439 Speaker 3: Don't think there are any glorious. There's good and bad 783 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 3: parts about it. The bad part was they've hardly scored 784 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 3: it five and five, which I know they will. So 785 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 3: the bad parts really not that bad of a part 786 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,879 Speaker 3: because they have the capability to score more. The good 787 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 3: parts the way that power plays. They got eight power 788 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:21,839 Speaker 3: play goals already, and I was there the Columbus game 789 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 3: before it came down here next day and it just clumbusy. 790 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:30,120 Speaker 3: Nobody was really sharp, but the guts might not have 791 00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 3: been really that sharp. But I have to say that 792 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,799 Speaker 3: there were really a lot of flukey goals and the 793 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 3: Wild had a tremendous amount of shots. And that one 794 00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 3: they don't win yet they come back with the other two. 795 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,759 Speaker 3: But the best part of the three games that I saw, 796 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 3: you'll never You'll never think what it is. In my mind, 797 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 3: it was a play of You're off. They played one 798 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:55,279 Speaker 3: game and I was really impressed by him. I am 799 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 3: so happy they finally put them in the lineup, and 800 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,760 Speaker 3: I hope they leave them there because what I've seen 801 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 3: that kid's going to be able to play and play well, 802 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:07,319 Speaker 3: and I think very well. He's got many good things 803 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 3: going for him. Besides this, his skating, his competitiveness. I 804 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,840 Speaker 3: really liked his competitiveness. And then he's smart enough and 805 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 3: he has got a track record of scoring. So you know, 806 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,719 Speaker 3: I was sitting here, why didn't even play the first 807 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 3: two games? But I'm really happy with the way that 808 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 3: fourth line played. Ogren had a good game too with 809 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:36,840 Speaker 3: they were Hestrosa and I see they said Height down 810 00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 3: right away, so they didn't give him a whole lot 811 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 3: of chance. But if they think he's outready, it's perfect. 812 00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 3: Go down and let yourself get involved in every game, 813 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 3: play a lot of hockey and show that you're growing 814 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,399 Speaker 3: and going to be a good player. Because Height looks 815 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:53,919 Speaker 3: like he's a good prospect to be too. 816 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:57,279 Speaker 1: Well, you know, you're off. Is an example of what 817 00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 1: we've talked about. You're going to have to have a 818 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 1: couple of people ascend, right, That's that's what that's the 819 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 1: step beyond the stars playing well and obviously it all, 820 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 1: you know, it all revolves around the first line and 821 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 1: Caprice Off especially, but they're gonna have to be a 822 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:15,400 Speaker 1: couple of people that have been projected as you know, 823 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 1: options that become more than options. Louis right that that 824 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 1: that ascend to a pleasure going, well, this guy's this 825 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 1: guy's got a chance to be a good regular and 826 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:25,360 Speaker 1: be a part of our rotation, so to speak. 827 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 3: Well, I agree with that so much so that I'd say, 828 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:33,280 Speaker 3: don't over coach him. Don't don't start nit picking small 829 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 3: mistake or mistakes that he makes. Let him grow and 830 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 3: he's gonna he's going to make mistakes. Everybody in the 831 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,760 Speaker 3: ice bakes mistake and maybe his might be more costly 832 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 3: at the beginning because he might not be his on 833 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 3: tune with what you have to do defensively on your 834 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 3: own zone. But let this guy grow and don't let 835 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 3: him be playing with an axe over his head where 836 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 3: if he makes mistake one point, yeah, that's that's a 837 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 3: terrible way to try and develop a youngster. I guarantee celebratings. 838 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 3: It's the star in San Jose, Badar in Chicago. All 839 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,800 Speaker 3: these young guys, they weren't great defensively right off the bat, 840 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:13,480 Speaker 3: and it was going to take him a time to 841 00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:16,280 Speaker 3: get there. But when he got the kind of skill 842 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 3: that they show him to be drafted that high and 843 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 3: they are competitive and they are working hard at it. 844 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:28,280 Speaker 1: Let him grow hundred percent. A great point. The Wild 845 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 1: are in Dallas tonight. I think that's a seven thirty? 846 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 1: Is it eight thirty? 847 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 3: No? The eight? 848 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 1: You're right, you're right. It's game two of the ESPN doubleheader. 849 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 1: I'm assuming because it looks like ESPN and of course 850 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: all the action right here on the fan pregame show 851 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 1: either eight fifteen or eight o'clock, depending on how hard 852 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 1: Fallness wants to work. So when do you got games? 853 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 1: You got more games? When are you picking up? Are 854 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:54,000 Speaker 1: you picking up games on this road trip? 855 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 3: Or yeah, at least tomorrow. I wouldn't meet him in Washington, 856 00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:03,280 Speaker 3: can't you? Washington Friday? Philly Rangers, Mondaday? And Jersey Wednesday? 857 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 4: So you got Oh, that's great. 858 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,640 Speaker 1: You got a nice four game stretch early this year 859 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:11,839 Speaker 1: before the team returned Saturday, October twenty five to take 860 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 1: on Utah. In fact, when they come back, they've got 861 00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 1: what is it, one, two, three, four five, I've got 862 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 1: him at it with a six game homestand after the 863 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 1: five game road trip, so we'll see how that what 864 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 1: they what they look like. 865 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:28,840 Speaker 4: When they indeed come back. 866 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,360 Speaker 1: What do you well? I get I don't know how 867 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 1: much you were able to see the game last night, Yeah, 868 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:40,320 Speaker 1: because we I didn't get to see the third period. 869 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 4: How do we blow the three goal lead? What happened? 870 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 3: You know, Walston was really very good net. Yeah, we 871 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 3: gave up a short end of goal too, But the 872 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,920 Speaker 3: real problem was right off the bat in the third period. 873 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 3: We had a three goal lead, and it didn't seem 874 00:44:56,600 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 3: that we played with the same kind of mes the 875 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,760 Speaker 3: offensive thinking that we played earlier. We were not quite 876 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 3: sitting back, but not really for checking as strong as 877 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:10,839 Speaker 3: we should. And I'll tell you that LA came out 878 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 3: with fire. They were down three nothing, but the Wild 879 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 3: had been out shooting them pretty well. But by the 880 00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:19,160 Speaker 3: end of it, I think it LA probably went a 881 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 3: hand shots on goal. They really took over the third period, 882 00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,359 Speaker 3: and the more they took over we had. The Wild 883 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 3: had a lot of problems in a third period compared 884 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:30,880 Speaker 3: to the other two moving the puck out of his 885 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:35,400 Speaker 3: own They they were just trying, almost like hope for 886 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 3: passes and dumpouts rather than moving their feet and making 887 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 3: some short passes and coming out. You get to the point, 888 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,839 Speaker 3: you know, I hate watching interviews a lot of times 889 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 3: in these hockey games, because not only the wild game, 890 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 3: but I watched the other games here the other night, 891 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 3: and every game I see it's all, well, we just 892 00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:56,399 Speaker 3: gotta put the bucket deep and go to work. Put 893 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,359 Speaker 3: the bucket deep and go to work. Well, La didn't 894 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:00,920 Speaker 3: put the pucket deep, go to work. They get a 895 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:03,880 Speaker 3: lot of puck control. And that's that's what teams that 896 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 3: are tending to forget right now, they're so so and 897 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 3: too with the fact that everybody's gonna put a deep 898 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,840 Speaker 3: put pressure on them. Go to work. Well, you know, 899 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 3: sometimes keep the pucket, make some plays, cant control of 900 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 3: the zone and have control in there instead of dump 901 00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:22,960 Speaker 3: and chase and dump and chase. The best teams in 902 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:26,280 Speaker 3: hockey can really handle the pucket. You know. You see McDonald, 903 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 3: You see Conor McDavid. Does he come up and just 904 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:31,239 Speaker 3: dump it in and go to work. Now he comes 905 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 3: to that dome with control of that pucket. He makes plays. 906 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 3: And I think the teams get a little a little 907 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:41,839 Speaker 3: caught up in the game when when they get when 908 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:44,319 Speaker 3: they get ahead, and especially when he gets in the 909 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 3: third period later in the game, they start thinking, I'm 910 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 3: gonna do dumping and dumping and dumbling you get the 911 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:53,359 Speaker 3: pressure off, well, if you have control of the puck more. 912 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 3: Once you get it, you're gonna be killing clock. You're 913 00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,360 Speaker 3: gonna keep possession. You're not going to allow them to 914 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,160 Speaker 3: get the opportunities to go around and score so easily. 915 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:05,920 Speaker 3: And I just think you all got into that a 916 00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:06,719 Speaker 3: little bit too much. 917 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:08,560 Speaker 4: Lest thing, That's a great observation. 918 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 1: A six' five to one guy wants to go back 919 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 1: to the capriceof, story the contract part of. 920 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 4: It here's what he, Writes. 921 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: Louis Maybe i'm a week or two late on, this 922 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,800 Speaker 1: but why do players play hardball with money Like carill 923 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 1: and then come out and, say, WELL i really love it, 924 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,880 Speaker 1: here always wanting to be here, PERSONALLY i think the 925 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 1: player is trying to have it both ways when they say. 926 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,000 Speaker 1: That if they felt that, way wouldn't they sign for 927 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:31,840 Speaker 1: a little less allow for other players to be.

Think? SO i don't. THINK i don't think 975 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 3: he's that to date. BETTER i think he's he's WHAT 976 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 3: i liked about, him as far as he's controlling the 977 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:17,880 Speaker 3: puck more than he did last. Year the gentleman's right 978 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:21,239 Speaker 3: saying that he looks better because he. Does last year 979 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:23,160 Speaker 3: he was more and getting rid of the puck and 980 00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 3: not making. Plays AND i think he's got more confidence 981 00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 3: with the puck. Now but but it's not like you're 982 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,640 Speaker 3: three bountains higher or. Something he's he is better than last, 983 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 3: year BUT i think it's because he seems to have 984 00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 3: more confidence when he has the puck rab and just 985 00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 3: getting rid of. 986 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:46,880 Speaker 1: It, oh can you Ask lei why he believes the 987 00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:50,920 Speaker 1: power play has been so effective at least this. Early you, 988 00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:53,640 Speaker 1: know it's again only three, games but that was been 989 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:55,359 Speaker 1: that was a bit of an issue a year. Ago 990 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,480 Speaker 1: so what are we seeing what's different so?
