You want to talk about college basketball, 22 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 2: how about Xavier a thirty three point winner over Old 23 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,959 Speaker 2: Dominion last night at the Centas Center. We'll recap that. 24 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 2: You'll hear a little of Rick Patino's opening statements after 25 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 2: the win and the loss last night, a non competitive 26 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 2: loss from Mark Pope and the Kentucky Wildcats against Michigan State. 27 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,839 Speaker 2: You'll hear a little of Mark Pope's comments with Jeff 28 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: Goodman as well. Also in our number three, we don't 29 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 2: have a chance to do it, but Pat Kelsey, the 30 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 2: head coach of Louisville, caught up with Lance McAllister last night. 31 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 2: We'll play a couple minutes of that leading into Friday 32 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: Night's game at Heritage Bank Arena against the Cincinnati Bearcats. 33 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: Tomorrow on the show, Wes Miller, will you join us 34 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 2: to preview the UC Louisville game as well? And a 35 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: very special guest in our number three, Lana Yulrig, who 36 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 2: is with the Cincinnati Cancer Advisors, is going to stop 37 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 2: by and tell us about something really cool that they 38 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 2: have going on. In a way to benefit and help 39 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 2: support the Cincinnati Cancer Advisor, So we will do that 40 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 2: in our number three. We'll also catch up with Moe 41 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 2: Egger in our number three, Zach Taylor in our number two, 42 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 2: your talkbacks, and a heck of a lot more between 43 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 2: now and then. College football playoff rankings came out last night. 44 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 2: Not much shake up in the top three. The top 45 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 2: three in fact, remain the same in the College Football 46 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 2: Playoff rankings. Ohio State, Indiana, and Texas A and M. 47 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 2: After they're huge come from behind victory against South Carolina 48 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 2: or just slides to number four. Alabama drops all the 49 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 2: way down to number ten after their loss. Texas Tech 50 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 2: is five, Ole, Missus six, Oregon seven, Oklahoma eight, Notre 51 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 2: Dame nine, Alabama ten, Miami of Florida eleven, and Tulane. 52 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 2: Even though their coach doesn't think they should be in 53 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: the top twelve right now, they are currently in the 54 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 2: college Football Playoff rankings. Austin, as our resident Ohio State fan, 55 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 2: would you rather be at the end of the year 56 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 2: ranked number one or number two? If this were the 57 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 2: current bracket right now, Ohio State would play the winner 58 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 2: of Oklahoma Notre Dame. Then the winner of presumably Texas 59 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 2: Tech and Georgia, while Indiana would see the winner of 60 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 2: Oregon Alabama and then the winner of Texas A and 61 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 2: m versus Ole miss or Miami's winner. 62 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 3: I don't love any of those matchups, to be honest. 63 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 3: I feel like the way it's currently set up, Ohio 64 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 3: State would probably be fine with that, which is different 65 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 3: than the conversation they had a week ago. It really 66 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 3: is just impossible to tell what it would look like 67 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 3: at the end, but yeah, I think I would be 68 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 3: I'd be happy with that if I was Ohio State 69 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 3: right now. 70 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 2: Ohio State does have questions at wide receiver MM with 71 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 2: with Tate and Jeremiah Smith. Even without that, they beat 72 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 2: Rutgers without any of their wide receivers. They could they 73 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 2: could run well, I mean nine running back in a 74 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: quarterback out there and is loaded. 75 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 3: Oh gosh, you just you never know, you know, with 76 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 3: with Shiano. But sure, no, it's gonna be a senior 77 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 3: day at Ohio State, so obviously it's gonna be an 78 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 3: emotional game. But and I'll tell you the team that 79 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 3: is scariest to me now moving ahead of Indiana is 80 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 3: now Georgia. Okay, Georgia is starting to look like Georgia again. 81 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 3: It feels like Kirby Smart might have those guys kind 82 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 3: of peeking at the right time. 83 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 4: Now. 84 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,359 Speaker 3: I don't know what a game against Charlotte's gonna do 85 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 3: to him this weekend, if that'll kind of bring them 86 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 3: back down to earth or whoever it is that they play. 87 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 3: But Georgia is starting to look formidable again, more than 88 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 3: they were at the beginning of this year. And I 89 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 3: think maybe Gunner Stockton is a sneaky heisman Cannibal. Okay, 90 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 3: am I crazy for saying that? No, I mean the 91 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 3: way that he has performed over the last couple of weeks. 92 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:17,679 Speaker 3: I think maybe there's something there. 93 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 2: I also wonder I just they're kind of out of 94 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 2: sight because we haven't seen them much. I think Texas 95 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: Tech is a good football team for sure. I think, 96 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 2: I really do. I know they've slipped up once this year, 97 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 2: but I think they can give teams some fits that 98 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 2: would obviously if the College Football Playoff were happening now, 99 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 2: they would likely take on Georgia in the quarterfinals. But 100 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 2: I think that's a out of the teams that I 101 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 2: look at and say, Okay, I'm still not sold on 102 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 2: Texas A and M, although the second half against South 103 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 2: Carolina was unbelievable. I'm sold on Ohio State, I'm sold 104 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 2: on Indiana, I'm sold on Georgia. Outside of the others, 105 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm sold much yet, but I 106 00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 2: think Texas Tech can be a team that could possibly 107 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 2: possibly make some noise. 108 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 3: I would assume if the bracket is how we expected, 109 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 3: or if it were this bracket at the end of 110 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 3: the year, which would be Miami and Ole Miss in 111 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 3: the first round, I would assume Ole Miss will win 112 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 3: that game, assuming Lane Kiffin's the coach still Ole Miss. 113 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 3: Texas A and m could be the best game of 114 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 3: the playoff. Yeah, Like that actually could be the best 115 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 3: game of the playoff altogether, much like that game last 116 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 3: year Ohio State played against. 117 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 2: Texas Like that ended up being the best. 118 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 3: That feels like the national Championship game to a lot 119 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 3: of people because it was so back and forth and 120 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 3: kind of came back down to the last five minutes 121 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 3: of the game. Yeah, but yeah, I feel like you 122 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 3: could have that type of matchup in round two with 123 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 3: Texas A and M and Ole Miss. 124 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 2: If this holds. Sure, some good college basketball tonight, Arizona Yukon, 125 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 2: a pair of top four teams square off, as do 126 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 2: Alabama and Illinois. Illinois number eight, Alabama number eleven. That's 127 00:06:55,800 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 2: something to watch in tonight's sports slate as well. Last 128 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 2: night the debut of Lebron James. How about Lebron is 129 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 2: back and the Lakers win big in Lebron's debut. They 130 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 2: put up one hundred and forty on the Utah Jazz 131 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 2: last night. No surprise that Jazz are a terrible, terrible 132 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 2: basketball team, but Lebron played thirty minutes, eleven points, three rebounds, 133 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: and twelve assist For Lebron and his first action back 134 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 2: to the nb A, there was a name in Baseball 135 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 2: Austin that there are some folks out there in Reds 136 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 2: Country that were wondering could this be a good fit 137 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 2: for the Cincinnati Reds. The answer will now be no, 138 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 2: because Los Angeles Angels outfielder Taylor Ward has signed with 139 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Orioles. Traded to the Baltimoroles for Grayson Rodriguez, 140 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 2: a pitcher for the Orioles. But Taylor Ward was I 141 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 2: think a name that at least a few people were 142 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 2: floating around for the Cincinnati Reds. 143 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think that might have been a name 144 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 3: that had been connected to the Reds a little bit 145 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 3: as a name that they'd kick the tires on, which, 146 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 3: as we all know, is as offensive list of players 147 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 3: that the Reds have been interested in. But to me, 148 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 3: what I find interesting is the exchange here. The Angels 149 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 3: get a big league caliber pitcher in return. Now, Grayson 150 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 3: Rodriguez is not the best of the best, but he's 151 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 3: a former first round pick. He's got a war over 152 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 3: two in his big league career. His win loss record, 153 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 3: which we know it doesn't matter but still is twenty 154 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 3: and eight. 155 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 156 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 3: Over the course of his career, he's got two hundred 157 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 3: and fifty nine strikeouts over two hundred and thirty eight innings. 158 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 3: That's a quality big league pitcher right there. And I 159 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 3: think it's interesting. I know Charlie Goldsmith has talked a 160 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 3: lot about this. In the past couple of years, there's 161 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 3: been less dealing for prospects. It's been major leaguer for 162 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 3: major leaguer, and that's what this deal was. A quality 163 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 3: outfielder who hit thirty six home runs a year ago 164 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 3: in Taylor Ward with the Angels goes to Baltimore in 165 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 3: exchange for a big league pitcher, And so I think 166 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 3: that can help maybe chart the path of what the 167 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 3: might look like if the Reds are trying to get 168 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 3: involved in any of these trades. You know, if they're 169 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 3: trying to go and get a guy like Taylor Ward, 170 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 3: they don't really have a crop of players to choose 171 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 3: from out of their bullpen. You might have a guy 172 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 3: in your starting rotation, and has Mo outlined for us 173 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 3: the other day, it's not like there's an extensive amount 174 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 3: of starting pitching in the organization right now that you 175 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 3: would feel comfortable subtracting from. So that makes me wonder 176 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 3: what the path really could be for the Reds this 177 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 3: offseason if they would try to trade again for somebody 178 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 3: who can help the team like they did last year 179 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 3: with Lux and with Singers. Yeah, we have some NFL 180 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 3: news happening right now. The Cleveland Browns are saying that 181 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 3: Shador Sanders will make his first NFL start coming up 182 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 3: this weekend. Speaking of quarterbacks, Michael Pennix is going to 183 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 3: have that season ending ACL surgery. 184 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 2: He's expected to be out nine months, and Austin ken Anderson, 185 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 2: Roger Craig and others are among the nine semi finalists 186 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 2: for the Pro Football Hall of Fame's Class twenty twenty 187 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 2: six in the Seniors category. 188 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 3: Congratulations to Ken Anderson, Friend of the Show, Ken Anderson's 189 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 3: Friend of the Show. Hopefully yes, this is the year 190 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 3: he gets in. 191 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 2: Also happening yesterday, but I think this was pretty much 192 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 2: as assumed it was going to. The one game suspension 193 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 2: for Jamar Chase was upheld by the appeal committee that 194 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 2: was heard by Jordy Nelson. That is going to cost 195 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase Austin four hundred and forty eight thousand, three 196 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty three dollars and also forfeitting a fifty eight, 197 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 2: eight hundred and twenty three dollars per game active bonus. 198 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 2: So over five hundred, over five hundred for a lookie, 199 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 2: where does that money go? 200 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 3: I believe it is donated to various charities. Well, actually, fine, 201 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 3: money is donated to the various charities. I don't know 202 00:10:54,080 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 3: where that money goes. I guess the Bengals keep it. 203 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 3: Oh boy, So okay, what do you think was going 204 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 3: through Jordan Nelson's head? Oh when he reads this appeal? 205 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 3: If I was trying to spit on him. I would 206 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 3: have spit in his face. 207 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I would have went with the Mike 208 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 2: Florio side that there's really no precedent for this. Jordan 209 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 2: Davis was fined, he wasn't officially suspended, even though he 210 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 2: missed the whole game. I think that would have been 211 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 2: a little bit easier path to take than if I 212 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: were to spit on him. It would have been in 213 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 2: his face. I'm not disagreeing. Maybe I don't think Jamar 214 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 2: regrets it. I don't either. I don't think he does. 215 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 2: I go back and again, to me, I would rather 216 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 2: see someone fight than see someone spit on somebody. But 217 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 2: you just go back like I have this lasting image 218 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 2: of the consummate professional AJ Green and losing his mind 219 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: against Jalen Ramsey, and Ramsey does this to you, and 220 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 2: it's just part of who he is. And it's led 221 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,959 Speaker 2: to a conversation that we're gonna have in our number 222 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 2: one with some audio that Ben Roethlisberger had to say 223 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 2: about the Bengals and Steelers rivalry. But there are there 224 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 2: are no grounds for spinning on someone. Again, I would 225 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 2: have rather seen Jamar Chase throw a punch. I'm with 226 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 2: his helmet off. 227 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 3: I think we The next time we get to hear 228 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 3: from Jamar now that the suspension's upheld is next Tuesday, 229 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 3: because things are met sped up a little bit prior 230 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 3: to the Thanksgiving night game. He's he's not one to 231 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 3: hide his emotions now. He lied about it after the game, 232 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 3: probably because he didn't know what to say or do, 233 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 3: but I am fascinated to see what he says. There 234 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 3: is also a whole situation. 235 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 2: Somebody asked me this yesterday because Jamar is very candid 236 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: and has been very candid and open with the media, 237 00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 2: and he's at times been joking, lighthearted. Do you think 238 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 2: that this changes his relationship at all with the local media. 239 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 2: I think it's a possibility. Yeah. 240 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 3: I think one of the unfortunate parts of this whole 241 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 3: thing has been that Austin Brisky from Fox nineteen has 242 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 3: received a lot of hate correct from Bengals fans, which 243 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 3: could not agree more completely unwarranted and it's sad and 244 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 3: I wish that wasn't the case, but that could lead 245 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 3: to distrust or a changing of the way that he 246 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 3: approaches the media or whatever. I think it's silly. I mean, 247 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 3: the guy was doing his job. Everybody It doesn't matter 248 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 3: what station or where it was. They would have done 249 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 3: the same thing. Whether it was a Pittsburgh station or 250 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,719 Speaker 3: a Cincinnati station doesn't matter. And if it were me, 251 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 3: I would have posted that video as well. So I 252 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 3: don't know. I hope it doesn't, but I do think 253 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 3: it's it was a fair question. 254 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 2: Also Bengals related, the Bengals have cleared Mike Gasicki and 255 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 2: Dejon Anthony to both return to practice, opening up their 256 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 2: twenty one day window. Both were currently on the injured 257 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: the IR. I can that means safety help coming. 258 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 3: In an ideal world, Geno Stone would be cut before 259 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 3: they play the game on Sunday. 260 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 261 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 3: The more that I watched the film all four that 262 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 3: I look at Geno, how. 263 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 2: Could that be as fat as he looked during the game. 264 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 2: To watch the film and it was even worse. 265 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 3: The more that I look at it, it just doesn't 266 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 3: sit right with me. You made a business decision. I 267 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 3: get it. Okay, let's move on from you now. I 268 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 3: mean Dejon Anthony. I think it would be a lot 269 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 3: to expect him to just come in and play right away. 270 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 3: But the season's over, you're into evaluation mode, and as 271 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 3: that kind of outlined the other day. It's it's less 272 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 3: about tackling and more about the fundamentals of lining up 273 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 3: in the right spot, getting the play call correctly, communicating, 274 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 3: and knowing the playbook. Except I feel like Dejon Anthony 275 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 3: is a pretty smart dude who got on the field 276 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 3: last year as a rookie, and if you follow him 277 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 3: on Twitter, has been chomping at the bit to return 278 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 3: to the field this year. So hopefully when he's able 279 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 3: to go, and maybe he gets activated this week, I 280 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 3: don't know, we see more of him on the field 281 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 3: because the more you see Geno Stone, the less you 282 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 3: believe in anything that is right about football. 283 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 2: With the world. It's just that dude is he's not good. 284 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 2: It's just it's it's one thing. It's one thing to 285 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 2: be bad. But like, man, he's not talented, but he 286 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 2: plays his tail off. 287 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, like Barrett carter YEP, Barrett Cartering tries like hell. 288 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 3: He stinks, but he tries like hell. Geno Stone stinks 289 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 3: and doesn't try. Or man, he's he's flying around. He's 290 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 3: just not he's not finishing, he's not he's not trying, 291 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 3: and that makes it even worse. At the level of 292 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 3: play in which we've seen from Geno Stone. Here's what 293 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 3: we'll do when we come back. 294 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 2: A comment from Ben Roethlisberger that I want to play 295 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 2: the audio too, we'll react to that. We have phone 296 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 2: calls here throughout our number one, five, one, three, seven, four, nine, 297 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: fifteen thirty. That will all lead up to Zach Taylor, 298 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 2: who speaks to the media at one o'clock. That is 299 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 2: your slate from now until then on ESPN fifteen thirty, 300 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Sports Station Thanks to Skyline Chili. 301 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 5: This is Dan Horde joined Dave Lapoman me for Biding. 302 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: Football in the NATI, brought to you by Hey during 303 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: Window Company on ESPN fifteen thirty, the official home of 304 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Bengals. 305 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 2: All right, welcome back in Little Football in the NATI. 306 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 2: ESPN fifteen thirty, Cincinnati Sports Station, thanks as well to 307 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 2: our friends at Skyline Chili.

Look, we are now at the 309 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 2: point I think where we are moving past the Jamar 310 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 2: Chase situation with Jalen Ramsey. Jamar Chase is going to 311 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 2: be suspended and you got to start acting accordingly. You're 312 00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 2: not going to have Jamar Chase on Sunday, it was 313 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 2: already peel battle against the Patriots. Good luck offensively to 314 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 2: find a way to make this work without the best 315 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 2: receiver in football, against a very good New England team, 316 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 2: a very well coached New England team. We'll see what 317 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 2: t Higgins can do, We'll see what Joe Flacco is 318 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 2: able to do, and we'll get the chance to hear 319 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 2: all of this from Zach Taylor at one o'clock. But 320 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 2: there was one other fallout from this. Often it has 321 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 2: a lot of people talking across the world of sports, 322 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: and one of those folks is a former Pittsburgh Stealer quarterback. 323 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 2: We know the rivalry between Pittsburgh and Cincinnati is rooted 324 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 2: in hate. We know the rivalry is rooted and things 325 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 2: that have happened over the course of the years, and 326 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,200 Speaker 2: that makes it a little different when you go into 327 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 2: that week. But take a listen to Ben Roethlisberger and 328 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 2: what he had to say as it relates to the 329 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 2: rivalry and some stuff he went through with the Baltimore Ravens. 330 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 2: I'm talking to both, I'm talking to everybody. Just shut 331 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 2: up and play football. 332 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 6: That's how this game, that's how Pittsburgh Steelers play is 333 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,239 Speaker 6: you shut up, You play the game, and you go 334 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,479 Speaker 6: to work and you eat that dude down.

That that extra stuff is unnecessary. 340 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 6: And listen, I'm not trying to say this students, anything wrong. 341 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 6: I'm just saying that that rivalry between those two, I 342 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 6: guess I'm talking more about the rivalry right the Bengals 343 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 6: Steelers rivalry, it just it's it's it's not the same 344 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 6: as as like the Bengals and then Rave are the 345 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 6: Steelers and Ravens where it's just physical and we're gonna 346 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 6: we're gonna pound on each other. 347 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. 348 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, you're always looking over your show. 349 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's my soulbox. 350 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 5: Enough about that. I'm just glad. 351 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 6: I just hope that it's all settled Ramsey and we 352 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 6: don't have to lose them for any more games because 353 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 6: he is super valuable out there. 354 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 3: Okay, that is football and with Ben Roethlisberger his potzezle. 355 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 2: So what I get from that is that he's trying 356 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 2: to describe the relationship and the matchups with Pittsburgh and 357 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 2: Baltimore when he played us having respect for each other 358 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 2: but just being a rivalry. Is that him saying that 359 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 2: there's not respect with the Bengals, correct? That's my interest? Yeah, 360 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 2: So if there's not respect, like, are we quick to forget? 361 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 2: This is not a one sided thing. I mean, I 362 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 2: remember hinz Ward on Keith Rivers. You know, I remember 363 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 2: Carson Palmer's injury. And I'm not saying that that's rooted 364 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,719 Speaker 2: in hate, but like I think it is, there are 365 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,479 Speaker 2: points in this rivalry that are rooted in hate and 366 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 2: that are rooted. But like to come out and say, like, well, 367 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 2: you know, Baltimore at least there was a respect there, 368 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 2: I don't. I don't quite agree with that sense. But 369 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 2: this isn't just like this is the the Bengals are 370 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 2: the ones that don't have respect for Pittsburgh has not 371 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 2: shown respect to Cincinnati as well. This isn't a one 372 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 2: sided thing. 373 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 3: First and foremost, to understand Ben and his audience, he's 374 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 3: obviously talking to Steelers fans, and that's gonna be his 375 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 3: his view on things he did say in that clip. 376 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 3: Though he's not saying that the Steelers have never done 377 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 3: anything wrong. I think he understands that. I agree with 378 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 3: him though in that it it's really not a rivalry 379 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 3: the Bengals and Steelers based in respect. There are countless 380 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 3: times you can look in the history of this rivalry 381 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,719 Speaker 3: in which it's been flat out disrespect between the two sides. 382 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 3: I mean, the hit on Kevin Huber is a perfect example, 383 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 3: completely unnecessary, what Vontes Berfect did to Antonio Brown, hinz 384 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 3: Ward to Keith Rivers, Jamar Chase, spitting on Ramsey and 385 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 3: flipping off Minka Fitzpatrick, George I Loka, what he did 386 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 3: to Antonio Brown in the back of the end zone, 387 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 3: Juju Smith Schuster standing over Vontes perfect, keem O von 388 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 3: Olhoffen over Carson Palmer. Ken Anderson almost had his neck 389 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 3: broken because his face mask was grabbed and turned around. 390 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 3: He was looking at his nameplate on the back of 391 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:57,959 Speaker 3: his jersey. This is a long standing rivalry which it 392 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 3: has not been as much about football as much as 393 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 3: it's been about we don't like you. 394 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 2: You don't like us. We're trying to hurt you. 395 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 3: Ryan Shay's ear, the hit against Giovanni Bernard that knocked 396 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 3: g O out cold. What about when Ben got hurt 397 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 3: and Bengals fans were throwing trash at him on the 398 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 3: cart on the way off the field. Like, there's countless, countless, 399 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 3: countless instances over the course of this rivalry in which 400 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 3: you can tell it's really not about football, it's about 401 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:30,880 Speaker 3: we don't. 402 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 2: Like each other. And that's okay in sports. I don't 403 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 2: know that it's okay. It's part of their story. It's 404 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 2: part of the story. But it's also, like we've talked before, 405 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 2: it's what makes rivalries what they are. 406 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 7: Now. 407 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 2: Is there lines you shouldn't cross? Yes? Was a line 408 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 2: crossed on Sunday? Yeah? I think so. I think spitting 409 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 2: is a whole different level. But there's no rule book 410 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 2: that says once the game ends, you got to go 411 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 2: shake their hands and hug it out and swap jerseys. Right, 412 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:03,439 Speaker 2: Some of the most intense rivalries in sports are built 413 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 2: on a genuine dislike for that team, the fan base, 414 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 2: whatever else you want to say. And I do think 415 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 2: it's different. I think there are I think Baltimore is 416 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 2: a rivalry, but there's not It's not rooted in as 417 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 2: much hate. 418 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 3: I actually think that there is like some level of 419 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 3: mutual respect between the Bengals and Ravens and the Bengals 420 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 3: and Browns. Like obviously the Bengals Browns things a little 421 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 3: one sided for the most part, but it's never been dirty. 422 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 3: It's never been cheap shots, even with Baltimore. Like the 423 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 3: Baltimore rivalry, I think that's more of a true rivalry 424 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 3: just based on the competition, Like that game, that that 425 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 3: series is a lot closer to five hundred between the 426 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 3: two teams than the Bengals Steelers or the Bengals Browns, 427 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 3: and like, from that standpoint, like I don't I don't 428 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 3: really don't dislike the Ravens. I'm just like, damn, this 429 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 3: is gonna be a this com you know, it's gonna 430 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 3: be a battle, this is gonna be a tough game. 431 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 2: But that Pittsburgh Week's different. Man, Phittsburgh. 432 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 3: I find myself getting angry, like I hate losing to 433 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh Steelers, and I think there's just this this 434 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 3: dislike and especially when there's a playoff chapter in it 435 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 3: as well. 436 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 2: When you go back to the Jeremy Hill fumble. 437 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 3: Jeremy Hill, but also what happened on the sidelines, Joey Porter, 438 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,239 Speaker 3: the Steelers special teams coach pulling Reggie Nelson's hair like 439 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 3: all that sort of stuff. It's just it's an unfortunate 440 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 3: part of the story is that there is a hatred 441 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 3: that unites these two teams. 442 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 2: And I think Ben's right. 443 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 3: I think maybe it's a little bit like the Bengals 444 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 3: and Ravens and Steelers and Ravens rivalry is is kind 445 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 3: of similar, like there's respect there, but for the other two. 446 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 2: Nope, not at all. 447 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 8: Nah. 448 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 2: Nah, Let's take a phone call before we grab a break. 449 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 2: What's going on, Mike, Hey. 450 00:23:53,200 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 9: Those what's going on? Well, Kenny Anderson, I sure hope 451 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 9: this guy gets in. He you know, I had the 452 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 9: privilege of watching him and he you know, he went 453 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 9: to Augustana College, so he obviously didn't get any. 454 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 10: Cub coming out. So that was a brilliant pick by 455 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 10: the Bengals when they picked in. Yeah, and he turned 456 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,880 Speaker 10: out to be as solid as quarterback as you'll ever watch. Yep, 457 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 10: not spectacular necessarily, but extremely solid. And just wanted to 458 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 10: get your sentiments on the Kenny. 459 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 11: Yeah. 460 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,160 Speaker 2: I mean you look at what he did when he retired. 461 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 2: I believe he was top He was sixth in passing 462 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 2: time passing yardage all time, and thirteenth in passing touchdowns. 463 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,479 Speaker 2: He was an MVP in nineteen eighty one fourteen. There 464 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 2: are We've highlighted this before. There are far, far, and 465 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 2: above many folks in the Hall of Fame that don't 466 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 2: have the career statistics of Ken Anderson. And I just 467 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 2: I don't know if he's being punished because there was 468 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 2: this feel about the Bengals or whatnot. But Ken Anderson, 469 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 2: all I can say is how deserving he is based 470 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 2: on what he's done on the field. And if you 471 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 2: ever had the have had the privilege and the honor 472 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 2: to meet Ken in person, and I have, and we've 473 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 2: had him on this show before. He's not only one 474 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 2: of the best ever played quarterback, he's genuinely one of 475 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 2: the nicest human beings you'll ever meet. And I can't 476 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,879 Speaker 2: say a bad thing about Ken Anderson. It's long overdue 477 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 2: and he is he is meant to be in the 478 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 2: in the Hall of Fame. 479 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm actually I've been sam prayers for the guy 480 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 9: because You're right as far as a human being and 481 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 9: a stand up citizen, Yep. You can't find a better 482 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 9: guy than Kenny Anderson. There's no way. Yeah, I wouldn't 483 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 9: mind doing a little basketball because I'm not talking about 484 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 9: the Bengals beause they're not gonna talk about I'm sorry, 485 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 9: it just isn't. I mean, you could, but it's kind 486 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 9: of wasted there. I'll tell you what the UK's list 487 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 9: and Cali Pari, I don't care what they say. And 488 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 9: you can talk Mark Pope all day. They misscal Yeah, 489 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 9: look what Cows went over to do with Arkansas with 490 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 9: the Razorbacks. That is a very dangerous basketball team. 491 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're dangerous, and I thought it was interesting. Leading 492 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 2: up to the game, tom Izzo went out of his 493 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 2: way to talk about the roster. He said, this Kentucky 494 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 2: roster is more talented than the Arkansas roster. He didn't 495 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 2: talk about the coaching because that Arkansas game with Michigan 496 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 2: State was a dogfight. That game last night was a blowout, 497 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 2: and I think there are a lot of people right 498 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 2: now questioning Mark Pope. With the money and the roster 499 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 2: they've spent to put that roster together, you have got 500 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 2: to yield better results early in the season. 501 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 9: I agree with you, ton I think Lebron showed a 502 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 9: lot of class last night. Nice mostly playing point and 503 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 9: getting twelve sixs and just knowing how to handle the situation. Yeah, 504 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 9: which leads me into the NBA. Look at these Pistons, 505 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 9: they're the story. Thirteen to two, k cunning him, that's 506 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,639 Speaker 9: the story. And by the way, Austin, what happened to 507 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 9: your books? 508 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 2: Hundred Yeah, Pistons. 509 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 9: Playing at the time. 510 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 2: Little sisters of the Pistons have won eleven games in 511 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 2: a row. Unbelievable, crazy, crazy. 512 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 9: And you gotta love it because it wasn't It wasn't 513 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 9: anything anybody now. 514 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 12: Who knows it. 515 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,679 Speaker 9: They'll stay there. But it was unexpected. And that's what 516 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 9: makes team sports funds and stuff that you weren't playing on. 517 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 9: I really and and and I'm telling you, man, they're 518 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 9: okayc team. They're not just beating people, Tony, they are 519 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,159 Speaker 9: smoking people. 520 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're They're not getting talked about enough for being 521 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 2: fourteen and one. Their average point differential is almost sixteen. 522 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,719 Speaker 2: That is easily the highest in the National Basketball Association. 523 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 2: They are, they're dominant, they are they are so good 524 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 2: and They're good on both sides of the ball, which 525 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 2: is refreshing to watch. 526 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 9: And they don't even have Jalen Williams there second best players. 527 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 2: Agreed, Agreed, it's it's incredible. 528 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 9: One last thing, I I don't like this game with 529 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 9: for you see on against Louisville. I don't like it. 530 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 9: I don't like it at all. For you see, I 531 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 9: really don't. That's a basketball team down there, my friend. 532 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,679 Speaker 2: Yep, they can score it from all angles. It is 533 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 2: a what I think Louisville's a national title contender. I 534 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 2: think they are and I don't think you sees there yet, 535 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 2: but it'll be a measuring stick for how far off 536 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 2: you see potentially is. I think that at least you 537 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 2: can get out of the game and hopefully grow from it. 538 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 2: On Friday night, Oh, I know you got to go. 539 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 9: But I'm with you real quick and just hit me 540 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,440 Speaker 9: in the head. I'm with you on Texas Tech and football. Yeah, 541 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 9: I'm really with you on that's a that's a tough, 542 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 9: tough football team. I'll let you go. 543 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 2: Thanks boy, thank you, Mike, appreciate you. Let's get a break, Austin. 544 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 2: I want to uh, I want to have two conversations 545 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 2: around the Bengals. When we come back, I want to 546 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 2: have a brief Trey Hendrickson conversation to kind of pick 547 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 2: up from yesterday and then this whole Joe Burrow to 548 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 2: play or not to play conundrum. Let's dive into that 549 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 2: a little bit more when we return. He SPN fifteen thirty, 550 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Sports Station. Thanks to Skyline, you've. 551 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: Been listening to Football in the Nattie on ESPN fifteen thirty, 552 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: the official home of the Cincinnati Bengals. 553 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 2: Welcome back since he three to sixty ESPN fifteen thirty 554 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Sports Station, thanks to our friends at Skyline Chili. 555 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 2: We'll grab another phone caller to here in the next segment, 556 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 2: real quick, Austin, I just want us to make sure 557 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 2: we're on the same page as it relates to Trey Hendrickson. 558 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 2: We glazed over this with Mo and Quick Hitch yesterday. 559 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 2: But back to back Mondays, we've heard from Zach Taylor, 560 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 2: and Zach Taylor's been asked about Trey Hendrickson in both Mondays. 561 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 2: He's been very adamant, doubtful. He's doubtful. This week we've 562 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 2: heard week to week, we've heard rumblings is there a 563 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 2: potential surgery for Trey Hendrickson this also, with the backdrop 564 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 2: of the contract situation that happened all throughout the offseason 565 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 2: and what contract situation he's in right now, it would 566 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 2: lead me to believe that we are closer Austin to 567 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 2: not seeing Trey Hendrickson play another snap this year than 568 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 2: we are to Trey Hendrickson playing another snap this year. 569 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 2: It's just if he was close, or if there was 570 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 2: an option. Knowing what we know about Zach Taylor and 571 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 2: hearing how he has spoken the past, I feel like 572 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 2: it would be like, you know, we're going to evaluate 573 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 2: how this week goes. I don't know yet. We'll see 574 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 2: as we go. It's not been that with Trey Hendrickson. 575 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 2: It's been very blunt. It's been very brief, doubtful this week. 576 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 2: Are we looking too much into that or do you 577 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 2: feel like we're at the end here with Trey Hendrickson. 578 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 3: I think it's weird that Zach has shot it down 579 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 3: as quickly as he has is if nothing else, you 580 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 3: would want New England to think Trey Henderson's going to 581 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 3: be on the field the threat of him, yeah, or 582 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 3: at least say we'll see how he does or we'll 583 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 3: see if he practices or whatever. And it's also weird 584 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 3: that they haven't put him on IR. They could have 585 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 3: put him on IR a couple of weeks ago if 586 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 3: it was going to take this long, and he could 587 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 3: have missed a minimum of four games, So that I 588 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 3: find weird just because it's a deviation from the norm. 589 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 3: I also wonder if both sides are kind of looking 590 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 3: at this thinking, yeah, I think we're done here. 591 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 2: Do you think that info could have been out there 592 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 2: and that's why that they didn't get anything better than 593 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 2: a fourth round offer? 594 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 3: Potentially? Yeah, yeah, I'm sure that's part of it. But 595 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 3: you know, I think the other thing with that, or 596 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 3: Trey could have quietly doubled out and said, if you 597 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 3: don't trade me, I'm not playing. Sure, that's also a possibility. 598 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 3: It's just a guess, but you know, I put up 599 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 3: the poll question at Audiom or will Trey play again 600 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 3: this season for the Bengals? Eighty three percent said no. 601 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 3: I also look at, you know, the standoff that they 602 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 3: had in the offseason and the Bengals reinvesting in him because, 603 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 3: as dumb as it might be, they thought they could 604 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 3: win the Super Bowl this year. Yeah, and they've not 605 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 3: been willing to commit to him long term because I 606 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 3: think they have doubts about players his age at that position, 607 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 3: especially somebody who's not been an elite athlete, and now 608 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 3: even more so a guy who's going through it a 609 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 3: weird back hip pelvis injury. And so yeah, they reserve 610 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 3: the right to franchise tag him at twenty six million dollars, 611 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 3: twenty seven million dollars whatever it is next year, and 612 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 3: that's a possibility. I have a hard time believing the 613 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 3: Bengals are going to re up and say, Okay, we 614 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 3: want to double down on keeping Trey Henderson here. And 615 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 3: maybe they do tag him and trade him. That's obviously 616 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 3: a possibility, and I'm sure a team would take him 617 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 3: for that price tag. But if it really is about 618 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 3: evaluation from here on out and Trey is not going 619 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 3: to be a part of your future, yep, there's no 620 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 3: need for him to play. 621 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 2: Correct. Speaking of playing, let's talk about Joe Burrow. Dan 622 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 2: Graziano and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN had this conversation as well, 623 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 2: and talking about Joe Burrow and Jaden Daniels, and I 624 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 2: just want to read a couple excerpts here from Graziano 625 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 2: and Fowler Dan Grasiano Report, and again I think we'll 626 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 2: hear more from this from Zach Taylor at one o'clock today. 627 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 2: The Bengals playing to give Burrow more work in practice 628 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 2: this week. He has said that he's targeting the Thanksgiving 629 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 2: game that is, of course, next Thursday. A lot of 630 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 2: the answer will depend on how the toe responds to 631 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 2: the work he's getting in practice. But from what I've 632 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 2: been told, so far, so good. Jeremy Fowler says that 633 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,280 Speaker 2: what appears clear is that Burrow wants to play. Team 634 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 2: record be damn. Whether he actually play remains to be seen. 635 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 2: The team will have something to say about that, but 636 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 2: he's now of the mindset right now that he's playing. 637 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 2: The AFC North door has been left slightly open. They 638 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 2: go on to talk a little bit more of Graziano 639 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 2: that he expects Burrow to play as soon as he's cleared. 640 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 2: The Bengals will regret losing the fourth quarter leads to 641 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 2: the Jets and Bears, which we've talked about, but still 642 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 2: expect them to get him back on the field because 643 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 2: the coaching staff might need to win some games to 644 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:58,000 Speaker 2: feel fully comfortable about keeping their jobs. Also talks to 645 00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 2: the point of the Bengals or not one to wave 646 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 2: the white flag, and then Jeremy Foller adds that returning 647 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow to play, even if the playoffs are out 648 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,959 Speaker 2: of reach, could help build confidence and momentum for both 649 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:13,360 Speaker 2: the player and the team going into twenty twenty six, 650 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 2: although the Bengals could opt to save him for twenty 651 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 2: twenty six. All of this being said, I think there 652 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 2: are two very very different scenarios Austin. One, what do 653 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 2: you want to see the Bengals do with Joe Burrow? 654 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 2: And does that match what you think the Bengals will 655 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 2: do with Joe Burrow. I want to watch Joe Burrow play. 656 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 2: I think he should play. I think it would be 657 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 2: good for everybody if he does play. Now, If if 658 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 2: what they're saying is true that the Bengals may need 659 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 2: to win a couple of games for the staff to 660 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 2: feel comfortable, I think that's I think that's probably true. 661 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 2: I mean, anytime you lose a bunch of games, nobody's 662 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 2: really gonna feel comfortable about it. And we've had the 663 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 2: conversation in the past that if this thing were to 664 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 2: really really unravel, it might reach the point of no 665 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,279 Speaker 2: return for Zach Taylor. And so I'm sure he does 666 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 2: feel the heat. And you do think whenever Joe Burrow's 667 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 2: on the field, you have a better chance at winning 668 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 2: football games. 669 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think most people would agree with that. So, 670 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 3: I mean, if you're a Bengals fan and you want 671 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 3: them to fire Zach Taylor, then you probably don't want 672 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow to play, and you're rooting for them to 673 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 3: lose every game the rest of the year. I look 674 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 3: at it and say, they have their quarterback. He hasn't 675 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:33,800 Speaker 3: played since September. He needs he just needs to play football. 676 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,879 Speaker 3: Like if he plays two games and he doesn't really 677 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:42,400 Speaker 3: start doing football activities again until July June July, that 678 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 3: I don't think is a good thing. And I think 679 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 3: it's important for him to play, especially to continue to 680 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 3: play with some of these young players like Dylan Fairchild 681 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 3: and maybe Jalen Rivers. God help us if he's on 682 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 3: the field while Burrow's out there. But I don't think 683 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 3: it's a bad thing for Burrow to play. 684 00:35:59,040 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 2: Yeah. 685 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 3: I also don't know that that they're gonna win a 686 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:03,640 Speaker 3: bunch of games even with him. 687 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think there's something to the fact that 688 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 2: you're paying a guy fifty five million dollars he should play. Yeah, sure, 689 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 2: that's fair. But I've been so back and forth on this. 690 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 2: But if you're going to to to move forward in 691 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 2: fear that Joe Burrow, if you don't want him to 692 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:19,600 Speaker 2: play because he's gonna get hurt, that's not the right 693 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 2: way to look at it anyway. Correct. If that's the fear, 694 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 2: and if that's a fear in the organization, then this 695 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:26,600 Speaker 2: thing's been built the wrong way, in which we've already 696 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 2: talked about. You you can't. You can't. If you're the 697 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,360 Speaker 2: Bengals saying well, we want Joe to get reps, but 698 00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 2: we don't want to get him hurt, then that's an 699 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 2: indictment on the team you've put together. Yeah, which, again 700 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 2: we've talked about that a lot. Guy's getting fifty five million. 701 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 2: I agree with you, he needs reps. Yeah, he has 702 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 2: to play football. Whether you are playing for something or not, 703 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 2: you're playing for your organization, you're playing for that sea 704 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 2: that you're wearing on your chest. You're playing for the 705 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 2: guys around you that are still playing for something. And 706 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 2: I think that's why Joe Burrow has made it such 707 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:03,360 Speaker 2: a point to want to get back because Joe realizes 708 00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 2: that Joe realizes the guys around him as well and 709 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 2: wants to be right by them. I think Joe Burrow 710 00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 2: should play, and I think the Bengals will do. 711 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 11: That to him. 712 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 2: I think it's good for everybody if he plays. Now. 713 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 3: I don't know that they should necessarily rush him back 714 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 3: at this point because last week was basically the last gasp. 715 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 3: I mean, if they had won that game, then I 716 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 3: think it's almost certain he plays on Thanksgiving night. But 717 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 3: now it's like, Okay, well, let's give you the extra week, 718 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,800 Speaker 3: We'll have you play in Buffalo, you know, whatever it 719 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 3: might be. I don't know that they should really be 720 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:43,360 Speaker 3: rushing him back. Yeah, and you know that also being said, 721 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:47,799 Speaker 3: if he can play, you know those three games Buffalo Baltimore, 722 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:53,839 Speaker 3: Miami or Baltimore Miami Arizona, no real reason for him 723 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,760 Speaker 3: to play in Week eighteen, that I would be okay 724 00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 3: with him sitting out because there's no win there. 725 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 2: Whatsoever, especially if Miles Garrett's going for thirty sacks correct exactly. 726 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:06,360 Speaker 3: I mean that who knows that game could be for 727 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 3: the number one pick of the draft. 728 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, very well, all right, let's break, let's come back. 729 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 2: We'll grab a phone call, we'll finish up this conversation, 730 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 2: and we'll get to Zach Taylor speaking at one o'clock 731 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 2: next on ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station thanks to 732 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 2: Skyline Chili School. 733 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 11: Insie a strong one. 734 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:36,320 Speaker 2: I gotta have some fun tonight. Welcome back our one 735 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 2: since he three sixty Wednesday afternoon, thanks to Skyline Chili, 736 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,880 Speaker 2: Zach Taylor, his weekly press conference happens in just about 737 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 2: ten minutes. We'll carry that to kick off our number two. 738 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:50,320 Speaker 2: Right before your talkbacks, Let's grab ourselves a phone call. Marcus, 739 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,439 Speaker 2: what's up? Hey? 740 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,760 Speaker 5: How are you guys doing good? How are you good? 741 00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 13: When it comes to the Bengals, I just I feel 742 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:00,919 Speaker 13: like it's not. 743 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 5: Going anywhere fast. I'm more. 744 00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,760 Speaker 13: I mean, obviously this year is just washed up and done. 745 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 4: But it's like that, It's like that famous line in 746 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 4: Angels and the Outfield when George Knox goes to the 747 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 4: owner and says, you have to trade all of them? Yeah, 748 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 4: and the and the owner says, I can't trade twenty 749 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 4: five guys. Sure, this whole defense needs to be redone 750 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,240 Speaker 4: and I feel like this could be a multi year 751 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 4: project and we don't have that when it comes to Burrow, 752 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 4: Chase and Higgins. 753 00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:35,239 Speaker 5: Correct your your don't I don't know where you go 754 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 5: from there. 755 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:39,319 Speaker 2: Your pain of your stars is an emphasis to try 756 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 2: to win now, but the rest of the roster doesn't 757 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 2: add up to that as well. And that's a very 758 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 2: hard dilemma. 759 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 5: Right, So it's like, what do they do. 760 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 4: Do they strictly just draft defense and hopes to hit 761 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 4: on one even though they they've showed no confidence. 762 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 5: In doing that, or do you use your entire cap. 763 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 13: And sign defensive guys? Yeah? 764 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they have to make the fundamental shift 765 00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,200 Speaker 2: to start getting more proven players. And Austin, I know, 766 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 2: I don't know the number exactly. Austin, I know you've 767 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 2: alluded to the fact that they do have a lot 768 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 2: of money in this upcoming offseason. 769 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, as it stands right now, about seventy million dollars 770 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 3: in cap space next year. 771 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I just wonder if that's enough to 772 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:25,320 Speaker 4: get I mean, obously, you can't sign every single position, 773 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,400 Speaker 4: but I mean, like I said, I just there's just 774 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 4: so many holes on the defensive side. 775 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 5: And I was watching the game on Sunday, and. 776 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 4: No matter what you do with Murphy and Osi, they 777 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 4: can't pass rush. So I was really sitting there and 778 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 4: I'm like, if you're al Golin, why don't you just 779 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 4: they the We're done trying to practice pass rushing. Let's 780 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,400 Speaker 4: just drop everybody in coverage. Yeah, and maybe they are 781 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 4: doing that, but we just don't have the talent of 782 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 4: the players who do to cover anyway. So I mean, 783 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:01,839 Speaker 4: it's it's just the nets on defense and I don't know, 784 00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:03,919 Speaker 4: and I just don't see it being stick anytime soon, 785 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 4: and that's gonna be a problem. 786 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that Marcus. I appreciate the call, you know, Austin, 787 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 2: I think that's part of the dilemma right now, is 788 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 2: that it feels hopeless in a sense that you know 789 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:18,960 Speaker 2: you have talent on offense, but the hopelessness comes from 790 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,879 Speaker 2: just the inability to get anything productive on the defensive SOD. 791 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,840 Speaker 2: I mean, we are nearing the trend right now. They've 792 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 2: tied an NFL record of giving up at least twenty 793 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 2: seven or more and nine straight football games. They are 794 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,720 Speaker 2: trending from a DVOA standpoint to be the worst defense 795 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,320 Speaker 2: in the history of the National Football League. That leads 796 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 2: to a very helpless, hopeless feeling about this team. Yeah. 797 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 3: I mean we've had this conversation a thousand times. I 798 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,840 Speaker 3: think there's a couple of guys that you feel comfortable 799 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 3: moving forward with. Dax Hill is one of them. I'm 800 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 3: still open to Miles Murphy, especially if he plays the 801 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,399 Speaker 3: way he played on Sunday. Sunday was the best game 802 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 3: of Miles Murphy's career. Yeah, can you stack that. Hopefully 803 00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 3: that turns into something and I would be happy with that. 804 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 3: Mar Stewart, I'm still willing to see what he has 805 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 3: and I think he's just had a terrible first year 806 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 3: where nothing has really gone his way. Other than that, 807 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 3: there's a lot of work to be done. I don't 808 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 3: think Jordan Battle is a lost cause. I don't know 809 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 3: that he's necessarily a starter, but I don't think he's 810 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 3: a lost cause. So you just look at that and 811 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 3: you think, Okay, well, that's three or four guys. We're 812 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,200 Speaker 3: gonna need another twenty to fill out the rest of 813 00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 3: the defense that you feel comfortable with. And I get it. 814 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 3: That feels like a tall task and seventy million dollars 815 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,760 Speaker 3: may not be enough. When you have other things to consider. 816 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 3: You're gonna need a third wide receiver. You're gonna need 817 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 3: a left tackle at some point, You're probably gonna need 818 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 3: running back depth, offensive line depth. All that stuff is 819 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 3: gonna be necessary towards building the team. However, I do 820 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 3: want to re emphasize the point that this defense does 821 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 3: not need to go from number thirty two to number one. 822 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 3: We said that going into last offseason and at least 823 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 3: made sense of the plan that they had on paper. 824 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,440 Speaker 3: It just hasn't worked. The biggest question in the offseason is, Okay, 825 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,720 Speaker 3: how do we adjust and do we bring in more 826 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 3: free agents or proven veteran guys in free agency to 827 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,200 Speaker 3: help on defense. And then you also have the ability, 828 00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 3: as far as I understand, it's still to restructure the 829 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 3: Borough contract to open up even more space if you 830 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 3: need to. So if you decide to trade Tray, you 831 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,239 Speaker 3: get that off the books, you get you know, maybe 832 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 3: another pick or two from there, maybe you get a 833 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 3: player in return from that. Like, there's a lot of 834 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 3: various ways they can go. Can they get from thirty 835 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 3: second in the NFL to twenty second? And if they do, 836 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,240 Speaker 3: they're probably a playoff. 837 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 2: Team, which essentially is what we describe the offensive line, 838 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 2: and because of how bad the defense has been, we 839 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 2: haven't had a chance to do this, but the offensive 840 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:42,800 Speaker 2: line is trending that way. They're not the worst O 841 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:44,840 Speaker 2: line in football. Yeah, it's we don't need them to 842 00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:46,839 Speaker 2: be the best OH line in football. But all off 843 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 2: season we said, can they just be a middle of 844 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,440 Speaker 2: the pack O line? Yeah? Can you get that? On 845 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 2: the defensive side. 846 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 3: One of the other questions of the off season is 847 00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,240 Speaker 3: going to be can Jalen Rivers take a step forward 848 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 3: or are they going to need to readdress that position 849 00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 3: as well. 850 00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 2: I think left tackle. 851 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:02,000 Speaker 3: River has two snaps a game where you're like, oh, 852 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,359 Speaker 3: I can see it, and then about fifteen or twenty 853 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,319 Speaker 3: snaps a game where it's like, ugh, I don't know 854 00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,840 Speaker 3: if I want this guy blocking for Joe Burrow. Meanwhile, 855 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 3: Dylan Fairchild steady sure, Orlando Brown Junior, I think you 856 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 3: and I both agree you don't feel comfortable with him 857 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:17,719 Speaker 3: moving forward. He's okay. I don't know if it's time 858 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:20,640 Speaker 3: to totally pull the plug. But that's not somebody that 859 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:22,800 Speaker 3: you think you know next year going into his age 860 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:26,360 Speaker 3: thirty one season, that you're gonna rely on heavily. 861 00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:29,279 Speaker 2: It's gonna have to be addressed. All right, let's get 862 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 2: a break in, let's wrap up our number one when 863 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 2: we come back, ideally right when we come back, if 864 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,920 Speaker 2: not shortly thereafter, Zach Taylor will speak to members of 865 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:41,880 Speaker 2: the media ahead of Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. 866 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 2: That happens next on the Home of the Bengals, ESPN 867 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 2: fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station.

He hasn't 885 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,280 Speaker 11: played football a long time. Kasecki been out four weeks. 886 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 11: I feel like he's a little ready to hit the 887 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:55,959 Speaker 11: ground running. So we'll see how he looks this week. 888 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 16: I think it would be could get Mike back given 889 00:45:58,239 --> 00:45:59,400 Speaker 16: that everything. 890 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,920 Speaker 11: Yeah, just giving that situation to lose a guy like 891 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,200 Speaker 11: Jamar and ad one like Mike certainly helps use the 892 00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 11: pain a little bit. And we'd be happy to have 893 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 11: your reaction. 894 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 16: To obviously the suspension and then and then his appeal 895 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:10,720 Speaker 16: being denied. 896 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,479 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean we we we gave him everything we had. 897 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 11: They have held the suspension and so as a team, 898 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 11: we just got to move forward. You know, still support 899 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 11: Jamar and I have support Jamar, but we got to 900 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 11: focus on New England now and look forward to getting 901 00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 11: Jamrow next back. Next Monday. 902 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 17: Is the move for Deison to be at faded because 903 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,920 Speaker 17: he's finally ready from injury standpoint, or just that you 904 00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:35,840 Speaker 17: guys are hopeful in the next couple of weeks to 905 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 17: see what you can do for you. 906 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's time to get him back, you know. And 907 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 11: so again, now he's he's healthy and so open up 908 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:42,759 Speaker 11: this twenty one day windows. We can look at him 909 00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 11: going into December. It's just it's time to do that, 910 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 11: Pitch said. 911 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 18: His message to the receivers was, you know, a bunch 912 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 18: of guys getting an opportunity here with Jamorrow. What do 913 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 18: you hope to see kind of in practice this week 914 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 18: to figure out who's going to get those chances? 915 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,400 Speaker 11: Yeah, guys just taking advantage of the opportunity. Again, It's 916 00:46:57,239 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 11: that's exactly what it is. That's how some guys have 917 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:02,319 Speaker 11: got their chances. That's how Mitch Tinsley has has gotten 918 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 11: himself on the roster, has taken advantage of moments where 919 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:06,600 Speaker 11: he's at, you know. And so again, I just think 920 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,879 Speaker 11: we'll continue to evaluate those guys. We got a good 921 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 11: plan in place to utilize everybody we can. Then we'll 922 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 11: see how guys continue to step up as the week goes. 923 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 16: What challenges does Drake may presenting? What do you think 924 00:47:18,080 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 16: about him? 925 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:21,839 Speaker 11: I think he's done a great job. I mean four 926 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 11: to one touchdown interception is really impressive considering his second year, 927 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,799 Speaker 11: new coaching staff, you know all that stuff you factor in. 928 00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 11: I think he's done an excellent job. Seventy two completion 929 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:37,399 Speaker 11: which is really impressive too. So he's doing everything right 930 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 11: and leading the team the eight straight wins. I think 931 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:43,000 Speaker 11: he's just a really impressive and he's he's a tough 932 00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:44,759 Speaker 11: challenge when you guys taking care of the football like that, 933 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:49,240 Speaker 11: completing balls at a high rate like he is, twenty 934 00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 11: touchdowns five make plays with his feet as well, So 935 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:54,600 Speaker 11: he's really impressive in a difficult challenge for you guys. 936 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 16: What did you see from Josh mcteagle saw run by Drake? 937 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 19: What is it about Josh mccam was that over the 938 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:03,280 Speaker 19: years has made him successful. 939 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:05,279 Speaker 11: He does a great job attacking defenses a lot of 940 00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:08,480 Speaker 11: different ways, stay and patient, picking his moments for for 941 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:13,400 Speaker 11: big opportunities explosives. It's hard to say how much offense 942 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 11: they carry. I don't know. I've never really been with him, 943 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:17,439 Speaker 11: but they just do a good job with their game 944 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:19,719 Speaker 11: planning week to week and attacking attacking what they think 945 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:23,040 Speaker 11: your weaknesses, and I'm always having some nice wrinkles in place. 946 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:25,160 Speaker 11: He's done it for a long time a very high level, 947 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:26,840 Speaker 11: won a lot of Super Bowls, A ton of respect 948 00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 11: for Josh and he's certainly getting a lot of the 949 00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 11: offense right now. 950 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:33,000 Speaker 19: Is a term that comes up a lot when when 951 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:36,840 Speaker 19: his name comes up. Do you see where do you 952 00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:41,239 Speaker 19: see any characteristics of a mesh offense with them run 953 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 19: through the break offense? A mesh like the concept mess 954 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 19: like crossing the Yeah. 955 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 11: I think if he's get yeah, I mean that that's 956 00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,319 Speaker 11: through me on that one. And I didn't expect that question. 957 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 11: I'm sure that shows up. That's not what I necessarily 958 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 11: think of right out the gate. Sat. 959 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:11,479 Speaker 20: You know, a game against a good New England team 960 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 20: with a good record, I think is gonna demand, always 961 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:17,440 Speaker 20: going to demand the attention of whoever that the team 962 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 20: is playing. I just wonder because of the unique circumstance 963 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:26,799 Speaker 20: of you guys having one of the coveted like primetime 964 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:32,239 Speaker 20: games the following Thursday on Thanksgiving Night, they're like, any 965 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 20: usefulness and maybe just telling the guys focus on this one, don't. 966 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 20: I know the idea of looking ahead beyond this doing 967 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:44,520 Speaker 20: the team is insane, but like, don't look ahead just 968 00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:47,880 Speaker 20: because we have this, you know Thursday night game. 969 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:49,839 Speaker 11: Coming up, No, I had a competitiony to do that 970 00:49:49,880 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 11: for one second. I think they're pretty well focused on 971 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:52,279 Speaker 11: the ring. 972 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,839 Speaker 16: How Joe Flacker feelings he can have practice it if. 973 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:57,880 Speaker 11: You won't practice today, same schedule as we've been on 974 00:49:57,880 --> 00:49:58,280 Speaker 11: the last. 975 00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:00,360 Speaker 16: Couple weeks and that's just maintenance normal. 976 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:04,840 Speaker 11: Yeah, Bill practice, Yes, well, he definitely start on Sunday. 977 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 11: We'll keep working through, you know, and see how we 978 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 11: go through the week. 979 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 16: Is that scenario bit Joe Burrow. 980 00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:13,640 Speaker 11: Joe Burrow hasn't practiced eleven on eleven yet, So, like 981 00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 11: I said the other day, until we get through some practice, 982 00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:18,279 Speaker 11: there's no reason for me to even speculate on that. 983 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 18: Well without Flacco, like Wednesday kind of be Burrow's day 984 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:22,919 Speaker 18: and then Thursday kind of Flaco's day. 985 00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:25,040 Speaker 11: Yeah, I think you can certainly get a lot of 986 00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,520 Speaker 11: work in with Joe today, Joe Burrow today because Flacco 987 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:29,799 Speaker 11: is not practicing.

Joe flaccol hasn't done that. We 991 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 11: got to think of another way to communicate this because 992 00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:42,719 Speaker 11: the two. Joe's that really is just this is getting 993 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,920 Speaker 11: harder and harder every week that passes. But so we'll 994 00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:47,759 Speaker 11: get through today, and it is it's just good start 995 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:49,239 Speaker 11: to get drawut there and eleven all eleven. See how 996 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:51,759 Speaker 11: it goes well, Joe Burrow. 997 00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:55,160 Speaker 16: To eleven on eleven today, I think he might he. 998 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:56,040 Speaker 11: Will, He'll do it. 999 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 17: Today's gotten a lot of praise for the job that 1000 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:02,399 Speaker 17: they've done in rebuild with the entire team, but specifically 1001 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:02,960 Speaker 17: on defense. 1002 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:04,880 Speaker 16: Obviously that's Rabel's. 1003 00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,120 Speaker 17: You know, bread and butter, and you look at you 1004 00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:10,759 Speaker 17: played them last year. What's the biggest change you've seen 1005 00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:12,480 Speaker 17: in the defense this year? 1006 00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:15,319 Speaker 11: Yeah, impossible to compare that was that was a weak one. 1007 00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 11: It's such a unique thing because they had a new 1008 00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:20,359 Speaker 11: staff last year. So ye'ar 's sure so that that 1009 00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:23,439 Speaker 11: one doesn't to me even count. I think that he's 1010 00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:26,239 Speaker 11: just done a great job. It's it's it's similar enough 1011 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,280 Speaker 11: to what they did in Tennessee, but there's some differences, 1012 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 11: you know, and so again I think spending time away 1013 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:34,960 Speaker 11: for a year, however you look at it, it's they've 1014 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:36,480 Speaker 11: done a good job. There's some things that stayed the 1015 00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 11: same that they're really hard nose playing defense. They do 1016 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,400 Speaker 11: the they do the simple things really well. There's a 1017 00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:45,360 Speaker 11: physicality to them for sure that shows up. You know, 1018 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:46,960 Speaker 11: there's there's a couple of guys that have been with 1019 00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:49,560 Speaker 11: Rabele in the past that he brings along, and some 1020 00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:51,680 Speaker 11: other guys that they added from around the league, and 1021 00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:53,360 Speaker 11: then the guys that have been there that they continue 1022 00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:56,960 Speaker 11: to grow within the organization. So it's a challenging defense. 1023 00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 11: They do a really good job. It's not even a 1024 00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:02,920 Speaker 11: team that that overall has there won eight in a row. 1025 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 11: So you normally look at the turnover battle and think, Okay, 1026 00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:07,480 Speaker 11: they're dominating the term they're not. There's zero, you know, 1027 00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:10,560 Speaker 11: it's even for them, and so that that's an impressive 1028 00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:13,000 Speaker 11: way to win eight in a row when there's been 1029 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,320 Speaker 11: games where it's where it's plus or minus, but overall 1030 00:52:15,320 --> 00:52:17,360 Speaker 11: at zero and so I think that that's just pretty 1031 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:18,719 Speaker 11: impressive that they've been able to do what they do 1032 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:19,920 Speaker 11: with the rector they have. That tells you that they're 1033 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:21,760 Speaker 11: playing really sound football in all three phases. 1034 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 21: Guy, I think we forgot to ask about it on 1035 00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:26,799 Speaker 21: Monday smodd Ryan. 1036 00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 11: Is he getting closer to be doubtful this week? 1037 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:34,279 Speaker 18: You a lot about the defense on Monday and things 1038 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,880 Speaker 18: that you want to fix going into this week, and 1039 00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:39,760 Speaker 18: there are any like positive examples that you've the staff 1040 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 18: is pointed to and said, like, here's what we wanted 1041 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:43,319 Speaker 18: to look like from some things. 1042 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, I think there's a lot of great examples on 1043 00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 11: first and second down where we won and got him 1044 00:52:47,640 --> 00:52:49,839 Speaker 11: to where we wanted and didn't necessarily finish all the time. 1045 00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 11: There's times we did there was a there's a physicality 1046 00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 11: there that I thought. Like I said, I thought the 1047 00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:58,799 Speaker 11: linebackers did a good job from an operational standpoint. So yeah, 1048 00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:01,239 Speaker 11: there's a lot of things to build on them that 1049 00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:04,640 Speaker 11: I think had been better than the weeks before. That's 1050 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:07,399 Speaker 11: not our standards, not let's just be a little bit better. 1051 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:09,840 Speaker 11: It's it's we want to completely raise the standard for 1052 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,600 Speaker 11: a whole team. But there were some things that we 1053 00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 11: got to continue to build on. 1054 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,120 Speaker 16: Osa got a little dinged up at the beginning of 1055 00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:17,480 Speaker 16: the game. Obviously finished the game. 1056 00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:18,840 Speaker 2: Will he be out there today. 1057 00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:21,799 Speaker 11: Yeah, there's guys, of course that always get deemed back 1058 00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:23,359 Speaker 11: in the games, and we'll manage them through the week. 1059 00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,360 Speaker 11: But he's in good shape. 1060 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 21: No one makes it to the NFL by shying away 1061 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 21: from challenges. But a team that's one eight and rows 1062 00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 21: that is something that you actually enjoy that, it's something that 1063 00:53:34,719 --> 00:53:36,920 Speaker 21: you want to go after and try to snap them. 1064 00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 11: Yeah, it doesn't. I mean you kind of know what 1065 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,320 Speaker 11: our mentality has been over the last couple of years, 1066 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:43,479 Speaker 11: and these opportunities are fun ones, you know. It's it's 1067 00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:46,400 Speaker 11: all these games are meaningful. They've obviously they're in a 1068 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,839 Speaker 11: really good rhythm and they've earned that, and so it's 1069 00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,280 Speaker 11: it's a great opportunity for us to find our rhythm, 1070 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 11: you know, to go out there and challenge them and 1071 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 11: put our best friot forward and see how it all 1072 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:59,800 Speaker 11: falls and get some moment them. After this game, message 1073 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:04,319 Speaker 11: jam Sunday, well, your your communications limited. I mean I 1074 00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:07,240 Speaker 11: talked to him immediately after the game, but the instance 1075 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,800 Speaker 11: then you can't have communication with him, which is tricky. 1076 00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:12,239 Speaker 11: But again, he and I are in the same page 1077 00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 11: of everything. I'll just keep that with me and Jamal. 1078 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,360 Speaker 16: When does that end postgames? 1079 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,360 Speaker 11: I think it's I'm not sure if it's four pm Monday, 1080 00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:24,360 Speaker 11: sometime on Monday. 1081 00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:27,480 Speaker 20: What do you what would your expectations for him be 1082 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:29,840 Speaker 20: during this no contact er? 1083 00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,879 Speaker 11: I can't talk to him, so I'm not expeculating. 1084 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:37,279 Speaker 16: What have you seen from from Charlie Jones? And he 1085 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:38,720 Speaker 16: thinks that he could potentially give. 1086 00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:41,640 Speaker 11: You think Charlie's got a lot of confidence in our offense, 1087 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:46,239 Speaker 11: so again he's waiting for his opportunity. We've been really 1088 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:48,480 Speaker 11: healthy at the spot, you know, so there hasn't been 1089 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:49,960 Speaker 11: a lot of opportunity to take advantage hip. So I 1090 00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,960 Speaker 11: think this is one of those moments where where guys 1091 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:55,560 Speaker 11: have an opportuny to make a name for himself. And 1092 00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:57,319 Speaker 11: we'll keep working through that for practice and see where 1093 00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 11: it ends up on Sunday. 1094 00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:00,480 Speaker 16: I asked you Monday and you said you have evaluated 1095 00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:04,040 Speaker 16: every day. Do you anticipate any starting lineup changes on defense? 1096 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 11: What'll keep working through this week? Thank you? 1097 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:09,359 Speaker 18: Jack? 1098 00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:14,920 Speaker 2: All right, back to back week Short and sweet for 1099 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 2: Zach Taylor. 1100 00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:20,880 Speaker 3: I totally forgot about Charlie Jones. It's a good question 1101 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 3: from James there, because I totally forgot about Charlie Jones. 1102 00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 3: I would imagine we'll see a decent amount of him 1103 00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:30,920 Speaker 3: just because he knows the offense. But the exchange that 1104 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:34,760 Speaker 3: I found most interesting there was about Joe Flacco won't 1105 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 3: practice today, did not say he would start on Sunday. 1106 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 3: When asked is there a scenario where Joe Burrow would play, 1107 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 3: he said, Joe Burrow hasn't done eleven on eleven. He 1108 00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 3: didn't say no. 1109 00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,640 Speaker 2: And he said he will do eleven on eleven today, correct. 1110 00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:54,000 Speaker 2: I think that's interesting. 1111 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:56,719 Speaker 3: I don't know that there's anything there, and who knows 1112 00:55:56,760 --> 00:56:00,239 Speaker 3: what Joe feels like or how practice goes or any 1113 00:56:00,280 --> 00:56:00,480 Speaker 3: of that. 1114 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 2: But it's interesting. 1115 00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 3: It's been around this time in the past where the 1116 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:11,360 Speaker 3: Bengals have made some moves thinking about next year. You 1117 00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 3: may remember Andy Dalton. Andy Dalton was benched for three games. 1118 00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:20,239 Speaker 3: Sure that helped him get Joe Burrow. You know, I 1119 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:23,360 Speaker 3: don't know that Joe's going to start. Maybe Jake Browning 1120 00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:23,840 Speaker 3: could play. 1121 00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 5: I don't know. 1122 00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 2: It's all speculating. 1123 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,880 Speaker 3: It's interesting, but I found that exchange to feel like, Okay, 1124 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:34,399 Speaker 3: there might be a little bit more there. And he 1125 00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:40,439 Speaker 3: was letting on also on Sunday after the game, Zach 1126 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 3: very quickly shot down any personnel changes today. He said 1127 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:47,960 Speaker 3: they will work through the week and see what happens. Yeah, 1128 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:50,839 Speaker 3: so not on the defensive side of the ball. I 1129 00:56:50,840 --> 00:56:55,080 Speaker 3: also thought just to clarify. I think it's fair to clarify. 1130 00:56:55,200 --> 00:56:57,440 Speaker 2: Jamar Chase cannot be in the building or have contact 1131 00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:01,160 Speaker 2: until Monday, so that's kind of how that works. No 1132 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:03,080 Speaker 2: mention of Jermaine Burton in that press. 1133 00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:06,040 Speaker 3: Conference did go out of his way to mention Mitchell Tinsley, 1134 00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:14,480 Speaker 3: he did. I think if Kasiki's back, Burton may not dress. 1135 00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:17,960 Speaker 3: It's crazy right without Jamar is it? 1136 00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:23,440 Speaker 2: Man? I can't believe he's still on the team. Honestly, 1137 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:26,200 Speaker 2: that's like that. The thing for me is, why is 1138 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,840 Speaker 2: he then on the team? Just in case? Well, just 1139 00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:32,080 Speaker 2: in case, you would think, just in case Jamar Chase 1140 00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 2: isn't playing. 1141 00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:36,040 Speaker 3: Just in case, I would have kept Isaiah Williams over 1142 00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:42,040 Speaker 3: Jermaine Burton. Right, dude can return punts? Oh man, what 1143 00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 3: a world? What a day there is. I understand this 1144 00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:47,680 Speaker 3: is not how we want it to be. We don't 1145 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:52,280 Speaker 3: want to dive into elite losing football team. But there 1146 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:56,120 Speaker 3: are enough things happening that make the week in the 1147 00:57:56,160 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 3: game itself interesting because of the various storylines throughout the 1148 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:02,400 Speaker 3: rest of the year. Was still seven games left. 1149 00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 2: I was at dinner with a couple friends last night 1150 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 2: and someone asked me how hard is it on radio 1151 00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:11,680 Speaker 2: when the team is struggling, And I said, normally it 1152 00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 2: can be challenging. I said, but oddly enough, this team 1153 00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:18,760 Speaker 2: has so many interesting storylines that it's it's something you 1154 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:19,680 Speaker 2: can easily talk about. 1155 00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:23,760 Speaker 3: I think there was a period of time where it 1156 00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:27,400 Speaker 3: was kind of difficult because we were just saying the 1157 00:58:27,440 --> 00:58:31,400 Speaker 3: same thing over and over. There wasn't much change offense, 1158 00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 3: good defense, bad, no good tackling. And then we get 1159 00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:38,120 Speaker 3: the you know, Mike Florio thing about Duke Tob and 1160 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:40,160 Speaker 3: I'm sure they fired Duketob and I'm sure they fire 1161 00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:41,480 Speaker 3: Zach Taylor. Now Joe Burrow. 1162 00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:42,560 Speaker 2: Come. 1163 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:46,040 Speaker 3: It's gotten better. But for a while there, it was 1164 00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 3: just same thing every day. Yeah, and you know, at 1165 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:55,959 Speaker 3: least there's there's some changes, there's some stuff to look for. 1166 00:58:57,120 --> 00:58:59,040 Speaker 3: I think it changes the way you watch the game, 1167 00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:03,200 Speaker 3: at least for me. I spent so much of Sunday 1168 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:06,400 Speaker 3: watching Miles Murphy. Yeah, so much watching Cedric Johnson, so 1169 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:09,640 Speaker 3: much watching Barrett Carter, just seeing like, what are these 1170 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:14,080 Speaker 3: guys doing? And I think that's kind of how you, yeah, 1171 00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 3: look at games like this too. 1172 00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:20,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, we uh, we have much more to discuss as 1173 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:23,080 Speaker 2: it relates to any other big takeaway from Zach Taylor. 1174 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:25,040 Speaker 3: Before we move on. Hold on, let me let me 1175 00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:26,360 Speaker 3: see what did I write down here? 1176 00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 2: I wrote down the Burrow him being at eleven on eleven, 1177 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:33,480 Speaker 2: Flacco not practicing, and Jamar Chase not able to be 1178 00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:33,960 Speaker 2: in the building. 1179 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:36,720 Speaker 3: I wrote, Mike g sicky, sounds like he's gonna play. 1180 00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:41,400 Speaker 3: Mitchell Tinsley mentioned Flacco won't practice, not guaranteed to start, 1181 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:45,480 Speaker 3: p Ryan doubtful again. Charlie Jones totally forgot about him 1182 00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:48,040 Speaker 3: and potential changes to the defensive starting lineup. 1183 00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:53,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it doesn't feel as if Dejon Anthony is 1184 00:59:53,640 --> 00:59:59,920 Speaker 2: close enough to push genostone.

So what's going on? 1229 01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 2: Something came up yesterday where there was a photo going 1230 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 2: around of the Indian Hill visitor locker room and there 1231 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:36,480 Speaker 2: were holes punched in the wall all over the locker room, 1232 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:42,640 Speaker 2: and so stories started running locally that you know, authorities 1233 01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:45,440 Speaker 2: were looking into it and that obviously Taft had played there, 1234 01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 2: and so people, I think a little bit too early, 1235 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 2: jumped the gun and accused Taft. And then a video 1236 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,960 Speaker 2: later surfaced of someone that was taking a video as 1237 01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 2: Taft was entering into the locker room, which showed the 1238 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:04,240 Speaker 2: holes were already in the wall. So now you're seeing 1239 01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:06,760 Speaker 2: a lot of backtracking because people kind of ran with 1240 01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:09,040 Speaker 2: it before I think knowing the full story. I don't 1241 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:11,880 Speaker 2: know if the full full story is out there yet, 1242 01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:14,920 Speaker 2: but there seems to be a video out that that 1243 01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:15,959 Speaker 2: the holes were already there. 1244 01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:22,000 Speaker 26: Interesting, Austin my co workers in Madison, Indiana.

What a fun first hour 1299 01:06:31,920 --> 01:06:35,040 Speaker 32: that was, Thank you. I was wondering if there's any 1300 01:06:35,080 --> 01:06:38,240 Speaker 32: truth to the rumor I heard years ago that the Bengals, 1301 01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:44,200 Speaker 32: in order to fulfill the Rooney role requirement, simply turned 1302 01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:47,760 Speaker 32: around and did a soft interview of Marvin Lewis, the 1303 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:51,919 Speaker 32: guy that they literally just fired because the Bengals were 1304 01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:54,680 Speaker 32: too lazy and cheap to bring anyone else in. 1305 01:06:55,280 --> 01:06:56,200 Speaker 2: Is this true? 1306 01:06:56,520 --> 01:07:00,160 Speaker 3: I don't believe. I don't believe that's true. It's not true. 1307 01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:05,240 Speaker 27: After seeing how badly the UK looked last night. I 1308 01:07:05,280 --> 01:07:07,520 Speaker 27: think you guys don't have as much to worry about 1309 01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:12,720 Speaker 27: with Louisville as you might have thought you did, because Kentucky, frankly. 1310 01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:13,640 Speaker 5: Is not very good. 1311 01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:17,120 Speaker 27: By the way, this will be my last TikTok this week. 1312 01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:20,560 Speaker 27: My next one will be from will be next week 1313 01:07:20,600 --> 01:07:23,200 Speaker 27: from somewhere else in the United States. 1314 01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:26,080 Speaker 2: Man, guess where.

I believe in Salt 1318 01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:38,800 Speaker 3: Lake City. Man, Ken just travels the world. 1319 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:40,880 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what he's got it made. He does. 1320 01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:43,280 Speaker 3: His teams might stink, but he gets to go around 1321 01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:45,040 Speaker 3: and great counterpart. 1322 01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:47,880 Speaker 2: Though. Maybe maybe there is hope for the Bearcats. 1323 01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:54,560 Speaker 26: Hey, Jim and Milford, Hey, if you want to increase 1324 01:07:54,600 --> 01:07:57,560 Speaker 26: the TV ratings for the Pro Bowl and all these 1325 01:07:57,720 --> 01:08:01,800 Speaker 26: different skill challenges, let's do a spending contest. 1326 01:08:01,920 --> 01:08:04,200 Speaker 2: What do you think? I don't think that would work? 1327 01:08:04,320 --> 01:08:06,520 Speaker 2: He really thought, he he joked with that one. 1328 01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:09,120 Speaker 23: I don't think Hey, guys, Marcus from the Groove. 1329 01:08:10,760 --> 01:08:15,960 Speaker 4: Unfortunately, the honeymoon phase with Mark Poe and. 1330 01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 23: Died for me. 1331 01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 4: After this Week sixteen layup last season, and with the 1332 01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:24,639 Speaker 4: start that we've got this year, I'm starting to think 1333 01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:26,479 Speaker 4: that he might not be the guy. 1334 01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:30,080 Speaker 5: I think last night was just pitiful. 1335 01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:35,559 Speaker 4: Louisville was just pitiful. I think I think we made 1336 01:08:35,560 --> 01:08:36,360 Speaker 4: a mistake on that one. 1337 01:08:37,320 --> 01:08:37,599 Speaker 23: Wow. 1338 01:08:38,040 --> 01:08:40,519 Speaker 2: Now I believe I saw or read somewhere they've spent 1339 01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:43,920 Speaker 2: like twenty two million on that roster and if they're 1340 01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:44,360 Speaker 2: not winning. 1341 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:46,880 Speaker 25: Okay, So about what Ben Roethlisbergers said. Anybody with two 1342 01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:49,400 Speaker 25: eyes and tummon since can tell that the Steelers are 1343 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:51,800 Speaker 25: a dirty team. It's just what they do every year, 1344 01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:54,000 Speaker 25: every almost every game. All you got to do is 1345 01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:56,200 Speaker 25: go back and look at the film for their dirty hits. 1346 01:08:56,280 --> 01:08:57,040 Speaker 2: Watch the film. 1347 01:08:57,120 --> 01:09:00,439 Speaker 25: I think what he's saying is competitively, they don't respect 1348 01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:02,360 Speaker 25: the Bengals is a true rival like they do the 1349 01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:05,560 Speaker 25: Ravens because they haven't won anything like the Ravens have, 1350 01:09:06,040 --> 01:09:08,400 Speaker 25: and then the rivalry is way one sided. I mean, 1351 01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:11,439 Speaker 25: the Steelers are forty two and nineteen over the last 1352 01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:12,639 Speaker 25: thirty years versus Home. 1353 01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:18,120 Speaker 2: Okay, I mean, I'll take your take. 1354 01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:22,599 Speaker 33: Prosecution of Mike Brown day two. We all know Mike's 1355 01:09:22,680 --> 01:09:23,839 Speaker 33: processes are flawed. 1356 01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:25,479 Speaker 16: Every number proves it. 1357 01:09:25,640 --> 01:09:27,280 Speaker 25: His definition of winning. 1358 01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:29,800 Speaker 33: Is flawed as well, the valuable franchise and one of 1359 01:09:29,840 --> 01:09:32,679 Speaker 33: the lowest winning percentages as an owner. Winning to him 1360 01:09:32,760 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 33: is a contractual success. Nick constantly bites him in the urs. 1361 01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:40,360 Speaker 33: If you really want somethingbody you're willing to change. Also, 1362 01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:42,719 Speaker 33: did you know the Bengals have the third least amount 1363 01:09:42,720 --> 01:09:45,040 Speaker 33: of Hall of Famers. Things that make you say, hmmm, 1364 01:09:45,320 --> 01:09:46,479 Speaker 33: let's get Kenny in there. 1365 01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:51,759 Speaker 7: Okay, thank you, Ardie. As usual, you are one point. Yes, 1366 01:09:51,960 --> 01:09:54,840 Speaker 7: it's been like that since the Bengals inception. The Steelers 1367 01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:58,639 Speaker 7: have always disrespected the Bengals. It just always goes that way, 1368 01:09:58,760 --> 01:10:02,360 Speaker 7: and you hardly ever hear. Oftentimes there's not even a flag. 1369 01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:06,000 Speaker 7: They have single handedly ended playoff and potential Super Bowl 1370 01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:08,559 Speaker 7: runs correct and sometimes it seems like it's on purpose. 1371 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:12,800 Speaker 7: But every time it goes the other way, it's like 1372 01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 7: a federal case. They're turning into crybags. I'm not saying 1373 01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:18,160 Speaker 7: what Chase did was right, but there's another side. 1374 01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:21,960 Speaker 2: Okay, there are two sides to every story. 1375 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:24,599 Speaker 5: If you want a little hope him for the defense. 1376 01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 9: Okay. 1377 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:28,880 Speaker 15: Seattle, for instance, has gone from twenty fourth to fourteenth 1378 01:10:29,479 --> 01:10:34,320 Speaker 15: to nine. Now I think so, you know, it is 1379 01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:37,439 Speaker 15: possible to make things happen fairly quickly. 1380 01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 2: The only difference in Seattle is their coach is a 1381 01:10:40,240 --> 01:10:44,040 Speaker 2: proven defensive genius. That's the only difference. 1382 01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:46,759 Speaker 5: Is all right him, you'll be a bliss. 1383 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:48,799 Speaker 13: That's Austin. 1384 01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:51,840 Speaker 12: You said something insightful, which is rare. So I had 1385 01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:55,080 Speaker 12: to do a little talking too on it. You said, 1386 01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:57,960 Speaker 12: Mike Brown wants to win. He doesn't any hate flus, 1387 01:10:58,920 --> 01:11:03,160 Speaker 12: wants to win his way, and his way has flaws. Well, 1388 01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:06,840 Speaker 12: the same with Jerry Jones. Jerry Jones wants to win, 1389 01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:09,479 Speaker 12: but it has to be his way. He would rather 1390 01:11:09,520 --> 01:11:12,360 Speaker 12: than lose doing it his way than let somebody else 1391 01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:14,040 Speaker 12: be in charge. And there's the problem. 1392 01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:16,679 Speaker 2: Okay, I think that's fair. 1393 01:11:18,520 --> 01:11:21,200 Speaker 34: Yeah, Kenny Anderson has got to be put in the 1394 01:11:21,240 --> 01:11:21,920 Speaker 34: Hall of Fame. 1395 01:11:22,560 --> 01:11:23,880 Speaker 2: Is just so ridiculous. 1396 01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,759 Speaker 34: Agree, the Pistons are something else? 1397 01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:28,519 Speaker 5: Okay, see unreal. 1398 01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:34,720 Speaker 34: Seems like Zach Taylor's had enough press conferences for one week. Yeah, 1399 01:11:34,720 --> 01:11:38,320 Speaker 34: it's Taylor's Bengals. They tried to kill our punter two 1400 01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:41,599 Speaker 34: different times. You know, it's it's bad when that happened. 1401 01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:44,840 Speaker 35: Yeah, it's the Lord. 1402 01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:45,400 Speaker 2: Hey, Lord. 1403 01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:50,000 Speaker 35: The silent reporters always asked Zach Taylor going into halftime, 1404 01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:53,080 Speaker 35: so what adjustments do you think you'll make? He always 1405 01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:58,760 Speaker 35: brings up, well, we need to make defensive stops and 1406 01:11:58,800 --> 01:12:02,200 Speaker 35: get to create turnovers. He may want to tell that 1407 01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:03,160 Speaker 35: to your team back. 1408 01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:05,479 Speaker 2: It's true. 1409 01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:08,360 Speaker 36: No love, no love, no love for that city up 1410 01:12:08,400 --> 01:12:13,160 Speaker 36: there in the city, Sonny, Come on, Ben, I heard 1411 01:12:13,160 --> 01:12:15,799 Speaker 36: your Pittsburgh's a flywer city. One of the worst stadiums, 1412 01:12:15,840 --> 01:12:18,719 Speaker 36: the worst cities I've received, Flower City, ugly colors, yellow 1413 01:12:18,760 --> 01:12:21,880 Speaker 36: and black pirates to the pitt Panthers, to the Squealers. 1414 01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:23,800 Speaker 2: Man sucks man. 1415 01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:25,599 Speaker 36: I ain't forgot about what you guys did us back 1416 01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:27,040 Speaker 36: in the day. That's why we don't like that city. 1417 01:12:27,080 --> 01:12:29,200 Speaker 36: That's why we don't like that team. I gotta respectful 1418 01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:31,599 Speaker 36: the Cleveland Browns and I got for them real talk. 1419 01:12:31,640 --> 01:12:33,800 Speaker 2: And the Ravens Now, I don't respect them neither. It's 1420 01:12:33,840 --> 01:12:36,360 Speaker 2: all about Bengals, okay. 1421 01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:38,120 Speaker 37: I mean, you want to talk about a team that's 1422 01:12:38,120 --> 01:12:40,280 Speaker 37: built for sports radio. I mean, lucky you guys. They 1423 01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:42,080 Speaker 37: just put it on a fee for you and you 1424 01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:44,160 Speaker 37: just got to hit it. I mean, every single day, 1425 01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:48,320 Speaker 37: it's something new with the screw Having said that the organization. 1426 01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:50,439 Speaker 37: You have two of the best players in the sport, 1427 01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:52,400 Speaker 37: two of the best in the sport. You think the 1428 01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:55,240 Speaker 37: Saints or the Jets would want Joe Burrow and Jamar 1429 01:12:55,320 --> 01:12:58,080 Speaker 37: Chase to start their franchises they had into free agency. 1430 01:12:57,680 --> 01:12:58,080 Speaker 2: In the draft. 1431 01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:00,800 Speaker 37: You already have that this is not a little tear down. 1432 01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:04,320 Speaker 37: You can't fix this if you're competent, which I'm not 1433 01:13:04,360 --> 01:13:05,080 Speaker 37: quite sure they are. 1434 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:06,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is fixable. 1435 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:09,479 Speaker 3: I do not think this is a complete rebuild, and 1436 01:13:09,560 --> 01:13:11,360 Speaker 3: I think that's part of the reason why Zach will 1437 01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:14,439 Speaker 3: probably keep his job. And you know, whether you agree 1438 01:13:14,479 --> 01:13:18,960 Speaker 3: with that or not, I can see a world that 1439 01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:20,599 Speaker 3: they are a playoff team next year. 1440 01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:21,320 Speaker 2: I can. 1441 01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:24,360 Speaker 5: Okay, did I hear. 1442 01:13:24,320 --> 01:13:26,880 Speaker 4: Zach say something about first and second down we're quote 1443 01:13:26,960 --> 01:13:27,920 Speaker 4: unquote good. 1444 01:13:27,920 --> 01:13:30,840 Speaker 25: Is he referring to Pittsburgh went on every second and 1445 01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:33,440 Speaker 25: ten we ran the ball with almost no success. 1446 01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:35,679 Speaker 2: I'm hoping I heard that wrong, But if you guys 1447 01:13:35,720 --> 01:13:36,080 Speaker 2: heard it. 1448 01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:38,839 Speaker 3: Differently, please I think he was talking about the defense. 1449 01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:42,280 Speaker 3: There was some good tackling on first and second downs. 1450 01:13:42,280 --> 01:13:47,800 Speaker 3: On defense, If you remember, there was conversions of third 1451 01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 3: and ten, third and eleven, third and seventeen, third and 1452 01:13:50,880 --> 01:13:55,639 Speaker 3: sixteen eleven. Yeah, so they did get him in third 1453 01:13:55,640 --> 01:13:56,000 Speaker 3: and long. 1454 01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:56,640 Speaker 5: All right. 1455 01:13:57,240 --> 01:13:58,639 Speaker 2: I think he was talking can we. 1456 01:13:58,600 --> 01:13:59,160 Speaker 9: Find out what? 1457 01:13:59,240 --> 01:14:02,519 Speaker 37: Talkbackers into Zach Taylor's press conference and asked the question 1458 01:14:02,560 --> 01:14:03,320 Speaker 37: about looking. 1459 01:14:03,080 --> 01:14:04,120 Speaker 1: Ahead to Thursday night. 1460 01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:06,120 Speaker 16: He was that guy. 1461 01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:08,080 Speaker 2: It took a while to get there. 1462 01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:11,439 Speaker 38: What What other NFL teams can you think of that 1463 01:14:12,080 --> 01:14:15,599 Speaker 38: struggle to score offensively because they can't scheme their way 1464 01:14:15,840 --> 01:14:17,759 Speaker 38: out of what the defense is showing them in coverage. 1465 01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:20,000 Speaker 38: I mean, typically it's because they don't have enough talent. 1466 01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:23,679 Speaker 38: But when I think about the Bengals, I think about 1467 01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:27,400 Speaker 38: how Zach Taylor can't scheme against zone coverage against the 1468 01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:30,439 Speaker 38: Steelers to get anything done offensively. And then I also 1469 01:14:30,439 --> 01:14:34,000 Speaker 38: think about twenty twenty two during the first part of 1470 01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:35,599 Speaker 38: the season, when he could have schemed his way out 1471 01:14:35,600 --> 01:14:36,200 Speaker 38: of cover two. 1472 01:14:36,680 --> 01:14:39,880 Speaker 2: I mean, come on, we did. We did have a 1473 01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:42,400 Speaker 2: lengthy conversation about cover two a couple of years. 1474 01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:44,160 Speaker 3: I think you can go back and look at the 1475 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:46,600 Speaker 3: film from Pittsburgh and see there was a handful of 1476 01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:49,760 Speaker 3: plays that Joe Flacco missed. There was at least two 1477 01:14:49,800 --> 01:14:52,479 Speaker 3: where Noahfense was wide open for a touchdown. And Flacco 1478 01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:56,360 Speaker 3: didn't hit him and it was either a protection issue 1479 01:14:56,560 --> 01:15:00,880 Speaker 3: or Flacco checked it down or whatever it was. I 1480 01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:05,240 Speaker 3: think the big thing is that third option hasn't been winning. 1481 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:09,240 Speaker 3: Fant won a couple times, Yoshibas hasn't won enough. 1482 01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:10,160 Speaker 31: Uh. 1483 01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:12,479 Speaker 3: Maybe with Kiseki back, that has a role in it. 1484 01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:15,600 Speaker 3: I understand your counter to that would be you have 1485 01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:17,080 Speaker 3: Jamar Chase and T Higgins. 1486 01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:17,760 Speaker 2: I get it. 1487 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:21,599 Speaker 3: But there are some plays that the Bengals offensively left 1488 01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:25,000 Speaker 3: out there, and specifically the quarterback left out there against 1489 01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:25,559 Speaker 3: the Steelers. 1490 01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:29,000 Speaker 5: There's two sides of her story. 1491 01:15:29,040 --> 01:15:31,920 Speaker 23: One's a line and one's the true and Mike Brown 1492 01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:33,720 Speaker 23: and the Bengals front office have been lying to it 1493 01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:36,840 Speaker 23: our sales for years, thinking that their way works. 1494 01:15:38,560 --> 01:15:40,760 Speaker 2: There you go, Thank you, Kevin. It was our last one, 1495 01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:43,679 Speaker 2: all right, A break and a football in the Natty 1496 01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:46,439 Speaker 2: that we're gonna have some fun with when we come back. 1497 01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:50,280 Speaker 2: Oh boy, on ESPN fifteen thirty Sports Station, what you're 1498 01:15:50,320 --> 01:15:51,799 Speaker 2: talking about? Thanks the sin T shirts. 1499 01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:55,760 Speaker 1: Plumbing Football in the Natty brought you in part by 1500 01:15:56,200 --> 01:16:01,000 Speaker 1: Bud Light and by Oakley Greens Ones. The End fifteen 1501 01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:05,160 Speaker 1: point thirty, the official home of the Cincinnati Bengals. 1502 01:16:06,479 --> 01:16:09,280 Speaker 2: Welcome back football in Nati. Here we go ESPN fifteen 1503 01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:12,800 Speaker 2: thirty Cincinnati Sports Station. It's our number two. We're gonna 1504 01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:14,479 Speaker 2: switch gears in our number three. We're gonna get some 1505 01:16:14,479 --> 01:16:18,200 Speaker 2: college basketball on multiple fronts. But before we get to that, Austin, 1506 01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:21,880 Speaker 2: I thought we could have some fun here because Matt 1507 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:26,040 Speaker 2: Miller came up with his twenty twenty six NFL Mock 1508 01:16:26,120 --> 01:16:29,759 Speaker 2: Draft first round predictions. Okay, and I thought, what better 1509 01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:33,360 Speaker 2: time than now to dive right in. I like Matt 1510 01:16:33,360 --> 01:16:36,880 Speaker 2: Miller with both feet. Now here's what's almost comical to me. 1511 01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:41,280 Speaker 2: Restaurant named after him. The Jets the number one overall pick. 1512 01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:46,360 Speaker 2: They have this as a projected trade with the Tennessee Titans. 1513 01:16:46,439 --> 01:16:48,920 Speaker 2: Titans have their quarterback. Jets. Don't Jets move up to 1514 01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:50,200 Speaker 2: number one? They tast of all. 1515 01:16:50,240 --> 01:16:53,080 Speaker 3: I love that it is a November mock draft with 1516 01:16:53,200 --> 01:16:55,000 Speaker 3: a projected trade at number one. 1517 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:56,519 Speaker 2: I like that a lot. We go right, we go 1518 01:16:56,640 --> 01:17:02,519 Speaker 2: right into it. Fernando mendo first one off the board. 1519 01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:05,600 Speaker 3: That would be an unmitigated disaster in the city of 1520 01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:06,040 Speaker 3: New York. 1521 01:17:06,240 --> 01:17:08,360 Speaker 2: Fernando Mendoza. 1522 01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:13,120 Speaker 3: I don't know what's going on with Fernando Mendoza. But 1523 01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:16,639 Speaker 3: I think there's some layers of the onion that need 1524 01:17:16,680 --> 01:17:18,160 Speaker 3: to be be peeled back a little bit. 1525 01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:19,760 Speaker 2: I feel like when I watch him in interviews, it 1526 01:17:19,760 --> 01:17:21,280 Speaker 2: looks like he's reading off a script. 1527 01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:25,400 Speaker 3: I don't know someone I don't want to say something, 1528 01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:31,920 Speaker 3: you know, sure inappropriate or insensitive. Yeah, but I would 1529 01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:35,040 Speaker 3: worry about that in that city. But okay, let's go ahead. 1530 01:17:35,080 --> 01:17:38,200 Speaker 2: Well let's let's let's get even better here. Number two, 1531 01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:43,720 Speaker 2: the Browns swap spots with the Giants and they take 1532 01:17:43,800 --> 01:17:49,160 Speaker 2: Dante More quarterback from Oregon. Okay, but the Browns Dylan 1533 01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:53,680 Speaker 2: Gabriel Shador Sanders. Let's take another one. They get the 1534 01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:57,599 Speaker 2: Oregon quarterback at number two. Now number three, the Giants 1535 01:17:57,640 --> 01:18:00,400 Speaker 2: we get into uh, they take a tackle from Myamy. 1536 01:18:00,840 --> 01:18:04,519 Speaker 2: The Tennessee Titans take Jordan Tyson, wide receiver from Arizona State. 1537 01:18:04,600 --> 01:18:08,559 Speaker 2: Good player. The Raiders. Number five, they find their quarterback 1538 01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:12,120 Speaker 2: in ty Simpson. Already what I'm seeing here, Austin not 1539 01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:14,920 Speaker 2: a great quarterback class. Yeah, we've all known that for 1540 01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:17,000 Speaker 2: a while. Three out of the top five are quarterbacks. 1541 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:19,679 Speaker 2: According to Matt Miller's first round mock draft of twenty 1542 01:18:19,760 --> 01:18:22,280 Speaker 2: twenty six, which is hard to even say on November nineteenth, 1543 01:18:22,320 --> 01:18:24,439 Speaker 2: but here we are. That's what happens when you get 1544 01:18:24,520 --> 01:18:27,719 Speaker 2: three wins on a season. The New Orleans Saints Austin 1545 01:18:28,439 --> 01:18:34,080 Speaker 2: rvel Reese linebacker, Ohio State, that's a shame. Number seven 1546 01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:38,000 Speaker 2: the Washington Commanders take Reuben Bain junior edge rusher from 1547 01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:41,720 Speaker 2: Miami and then to back edge rushers. Number eight the 1548 01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:46,200 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengals, and he guess, I hope Caleb Downs Keldrick 1549 01:18:46,320 --> 01:18:50,040 Speaker 2: Falk edge rusher. That would be a Bengals pick Auburn, 1550 01:18:50,240 --> 01:18:53,160 Speaker 2: a guy who's ginormous and strong and powerful, but doesn't 1551 01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:56,200 Speaker 2: do anything boom. He's got like uh he is two 1552 01:18:56,240 --> 01:19:00,400 Speaker 2: sacks six six eighty five with two sacks, no force, humble, 1553 01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:01,640 Speaker 2: no interceptions. 1554 01:19:01,880 --> 01:19:04,599 Speaker 3: That would infuriate me. If Downs is there and they 1555 01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:07,280 Speaker 3: took Kendrick was that was going to be the point 1556 01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:09,240 Speaker 3: I was making on this Now. In twenty twenty four, 1557 01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:11,479 Speaker 3: he did have seven sacks, which is what two and 1558 01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:12,320 Speaker 3: a half more than what. 1559 01:19:14,840 --> 01:19:18,000 Speaker 2: Who am I thinking of? Jamar Stewart had in his career. 1560 01:19:18,840 --> 01:19:20,800 Speaker 2: So seven sacks in twenty twenty four, but just to 1561 01:19:21,040 --> 01:19:23,719 Speaker 2: this year only been in on a total of twenty 1562 01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:30,439 Speaker 2: six tackles, just just don't shoot the messenger. This is 1563 01:19:30,560 --> 01:19:34,360 Speaker 2: just the mock draft. Can you imagine, though, Austin, if 1564 01:19:34,439 --> 01:19:37,600 Speaker 2: Caleb Downs is sitting there at number eight and the 1565 01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:44,360 Speaker 2: Bengals pass on him and take a physical monster but 1566 01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:46,280 Speaker 2: just not putting up the stats on the field. 1567 01:19:46,640 --> 01:19:51,880 Speaker 3: It would basically be Karl Lawston Part two. I've looked 1568 01:19:51,920 --> 01:19:54,600 Speaker 3: this up while you were talking. The next pick, he 1569 01:19:54,680 --> 01:19:58,679 Speaker 3: has Caleb Downs going to Arizona and it says, quote, yep, 1570 01:19:58,960 --> 01:20:04,479 Speaker 3: Downs is the top player on my board. So his 1571 01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:08,160 Speaker 3: top board Matt Miller's number top you know whatever? 1572 01:20:12,240 --> 01:20:17,720 Speaker 2: Is Caleb Downs amazing, best player on the board. And 1573 01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:22,280 Speaker 2: it says the Cardinals need a safety upgrade. What is 1574 01:20:22,400 --> 01:20:23,599 Speaker 2: Matt Miller watching? 1575 01:20:24,479 --> 01:20:27,000 Speaker 3: I think it's a good mock draft because he's basing 1576 01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:29,920 Speaker 3: it off the history and the strands that the Bengals 1577 01:20:29,960 --> 01:20:30,240 Speaker 3: have done. 1578 01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:34,599 Speaker 2: This wouldn't surprise me. No, it would be maddening if 1579 01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:39,040 Speaker 2: Caleb Downs were there and they get a physical specimen 1580 01:20:39,080 --> 01:20:41,160 Speaker 2: that just hasn't quite produced yet. 1581 01:20:41,240 --> 01:20:45,880 Speaker 3: You know, Caleb downs middle name, what is it? Third mmm? 1582 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:50,880 Speaker 3: I thought it was turnover. And also I like that 1583 01:20:50,960 --> 01:20:54,000 Speaker 3: you can do money money Downs. I like that a lot. 1584 01:20:56,880 --> 01:20:59,240 Speaker 3: I would be thrilled if they got does he have? 1585 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:01,240 Speaker 3: Does he have Cayden McDonald going? 1586 01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:04,479 Speaker 2: Uh, Spencer, let me tell you this now, ten Spencer 1587 01:21:04,600 --> 01:21:08,599 Speaker 2: Fono of the the tackle from Utah. That dude's a 1588 01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:12,320 Speaker 2: monster as well. Jeremiah Love is up here. Who'd you 1589 01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:16,719 Speaker 2: ask for? Uh, Cayden McDonald. Cayden McDonald. He's got Cardial 1590 01:21:16,800 --> 01:21:20,240 Speaker 2: Tate going to the Steelers nineteen damn it. Nineteen damn it. 1591 01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:23,200 Speaker 2: He's got Cayden McDonald at twenty three to the Niners. Yeah, 1592 01:21:23,240 --> 01:21:24,080 Speaker 2: that dude's a beast. 1593 01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:27,559 Speaker 3: So you're thinking trade back, I think that's I'm not kidding. 1594 01:21:27,560 --> 01:21:29,720 Speaker 3: I think that's possible trade back. The Bengals tried to 1595 01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:32,759 Speaker 3: trade back in the first round this year and they couldn't. 1596 01:21:33,080 --> 01:21:35,280 Speaker 2: I think the Bengals have to address linebacker, and they'll 1597 01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:37,760 Speaker 2: take Anthony Hill Junior, who on Matt Miller's list right 1598 01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:41,719 Speaker 2: now is number thirty two. They reached for Anthony Hill. 1599 01:21:42,920 --> 01:21:45,080 Speaker 2: It wouldn't be surprised if he took a corner either. Yeah, 1600 01:21:45,120 --> 01:21:47,360 Speaker 2: I'm sorry I did. I had to laugh because I'm 1601 01:21:47,360 --> 01:21:50,960 Speaker 2: scrolling down this earlier today and I'm like Ketdrick and 1602 01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:52,479 Speaker 2: so now I'm like, all right, let me, look up, 1603 01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:56,240 Speaker 2: Keldric falk, I would lose my two sacks six six 1604 01:21:56,600 --> 01:22:00,280 Speaker 2: eighty five, it says built in the mold of that's right, 1605 01:22:00,280 --> 01:22:05,720 Speaker 2: Hendrick said, Oh yeah, great, Caleb Downs would still be 1606 01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:10,280 Speaker 2: on the board. Oh after they just passed on Jehad 1607 01:22:10,360 --> 01:22:13,559 Speaker 2: Campbell last year, let's pass again on a the best 1608 01:22:13,560 --> 01:22:18,040 Speaker 2: player in Matt Miller's board. What a shock that would be. 1609 01:22:19,000 --> 01:22:21,599 Speaker 2: That's fun though, right November wouldn't be a shock at all. 1610 01:22:22,800 --> 01:22:25,080 Speaker 3: But if Duke Tobin thinks she's had some bad days 1611 01:22:25,840 --> 01:22:28,439 Speaker 3: on this station over the last couple of weeks, Oh, 1612 01:22:28,920 --> 01:22:33,920 Speaker 3: hell hath no fury like me? If that happened, Downs 1613 01:22:33,960 --> 01:22:36,200 Speaker 3: is passed for Kildrin. If I'm on the air the 1614 01:22:36,320 --> 01:22:38,920 Speaker 3: night of the draft, oh God help me.

Oh my lord, So in 1645 01:24:27,800 --> 01:24:30,960 Speaker 2: year seven he's like, you know what, I'm just gonna 1646 01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:34,599 Speaker 2: step away from the team and go focus on the NFL. 1647 01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:38,800 Speaker 3: I think the interest from NFL teams between myself and 1648 01:24:38,880 --> 01:24:40,839 Speaker 3: Dakwan Finn is not that different. 1649 01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:46,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, started at Baylor, went to Toledo, finished at Miami. 1650 01:24:47,240 --> 01:24:52,800 Speaker 2: Seven year player, three teams, has left the program. He's 1651 01:24:52,880 --> 01:24:56,280 Speaker 2: left the building to begin preparing for the NFL. Aka 1652 01:24:56,360 --> 01:24:58,599 Speaker 2: to me, and I don't have inside info, that would 1653 01:24:58,600 --> 01:25:00,840 Speaker 2: mean he probably quit on the team. It would seem 1654 01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:04,280 Speaker 2: that way back. Why else would you leave the team 1655 01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:06,920 Speaker 2: in the middle of the year, Yeah, because things aren't 1656 01:25:06,960 --> 01:25:07,479 Speaker 2: going your way. 1657 01:25:07,560 --> 01:25:09,559 Speaker 3: By the way, I just saw a picture that You've 1658 01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:12,599 Speaker 3: talked about this a lot, Joe Burrow being able to 1659 01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:15,599 Speaker 3: push off with that left foot from under center. 1660 01:25:15,680 --> 01:25:15,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1661 01:25:16,080 --> 01:25:19,599 Speaker 3: Kelsey Conway just posted a picture of him doing exactly that. Okay, 1662 01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:24,120 Speaker 3: working with Ted Carriss on the quarterback center exchange and 1663 01:25:24,360 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 3: Burrow of course starting eleven on eleven work today. 1664 01:25:26,400 --> 01:25:27,519 Speaker 2: I just think that's notable. 1665 01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:30,880 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously, just get the ball turned around, that's yeah, 1666 01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:33,120 Speaker 3: and walk through type speed, that's one thing. 1667 01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:33,559 Speaker 11: Yeah. 1668 01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:37,439 Speaker 2: I think the the initial explosion I think is going 1669 01:25:37,520 --> 01:25:38,040 Speaker 2: to be interesting. 1670 01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:43,719 Speaker 3: Is that something? Because explain this to me. I see 1671 01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:46,320 Speaker 3: some quarterbacks kind of have their left foot back, some 1672 01:25:46,439 --> 01:25:48,879 Speaker 3: quarterbacks have their right foot back. Is there a science 1673 01:25:48,920 --> 01:25:49,439 Speaker 3: behind that? 1674 01:25:50,880 --> 01:25:55,479 Speaker 2: So ideally you want you want to be as even 1675 01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:59,439 Speaker 2: as possible. But the main thing is you want to 1676 01:25:59,439 --> 01:26:01,719 Speaker 2: avoid a step with your left foot as you're turning 1677 01:26:01,760 --> 01:26:04,840 Speaker 2: away from the center. That false step you got the 1678 01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:07,599 Speaker 2: center being pushed back. You've got guards that are pulling 1679 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:10,680 Speaker 2: at times. I can't I couldn't count the times I've 1680 01:26:10,680 --> 01:26:13,240 Speaker 2: been stepped on pulling away from under center, right, And 1681 01:26:13,280 --> 01:26:15,559 Speaker 2: that's that's got to be a worry too, yes, And 1682 01:26:15,600 --> 01:26:18,640 Speaker 2: that's a huge worry about anything under center. So for me, 1683 01:26:19,520 --> 01:26:23,479 Speaker 2: it was easier to put my left foot a little 1684 01:26:23,479 --> 01:26:26,400 Speaker 2: further up when I was under center, because if your 1685 01:26:26,479 --> 01:26:29,479 Speaker 2: left foot is further up, you would be less opposed 1686 01:26:29,520 --> 01:26:31,599 Speaker 2: to picking that foot up and moving it more forward, 1687 01:26:31,960 --> 01:26:33,960 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. If my right foot's up, 1688 01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:36,840 Speaker 2: I'm almost just swapping out. So if my left foot's forward, 1689 01:26:37,160 --> 01:26:39,360 Speaker 2: now I'm just taking it and I'm pushing straight back 1690 01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:42,559 Speaker 2: as quick as I can to get away from the center. 1691 01:26:43,240 --> 01:26:48,080 Speaker 2: So that to me, again, that has to be quick 1692 01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:51,559 Speaker 2: and violent like when we we were always taught, like 1693 01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:54,639 Speaker 2: with our drops, that first step has to be fast 1694 01:26:54,680 --> 01:26:57,479 Speaker 2: and huge, and then your next couple of steps you're 1695 01:26:57,520 --> 01:26:59,760 Speaker 2: just kind of getting your balance back. But you've got 1696 01:26:59,760 --> 01:27:06,160 Speaker 2: a care e a a large, large amount of separation 1697 01:27:06,760 --> 01:27:07,719 Speaker 2: in that first step. 1698 01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:13,880 Speaker 3: And is is that like quarterback preference on the step 1699 01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:14,840 Speaker 3: about your foot? 1700 01:27:14,880 --> 01:27:18,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, was more comfortable, But again the main thing is 1701 01:27:18,200 --> 01:27:20,280 Speaker 2: you however you do it, you got to avoid a 1702 01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:23,320 Speaker 2: fall step because then you're stepping closer to the center 1703 01:27:23,800 --> 01:27:25,720 Speaker 2: and if you've got a nose guard that's pushing at all, 1704 01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:27,760 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, Ted Krris is now stepping on 1705 01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:31,080 Speaker 2: that left foot. No, no, no, no, no no. You 1706 01:27:31,120 --> 01:27:33,719 Speaker 2: see all the time when quarterbacks fall. Who fell earlier 1707 01:27:33,760 --> 01:27:35,240 Speaker 2: in the year and they scored a touchdown off it? 1708 01:27:35,320 --> 01:27:38,360 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence. Trevor Lawrence. Yeah, that like that's just the 1709 01:27:38,360 --> 01:27:41,759 Speaker 2: guard is pulling you get stepped on. It just creates 1710 01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:45,360 Speaker 2: a bad scenario. Interesting, real quick, it is a do 1711 01:27:45,439 --> 01:27:47,320 Speaker 2: we call this the bye week in college football? For 1712 01:27:47,360 --> 01:27:50,920 Speaker 2: the most part, not a ton of marquee games. I 1713 01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:53,639 Speaker 2: mean that the top teams Texas A and M's playing Sandford, 1714 01:27:54,200 --> 01:28:00,600 Speaker 2: Ohio State has Rutgers, Missouri, Ohome, the formidable fighting for 1715 01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:04,280 Speaker 2: ball eligibility. All right, let's get Todd Fraser on the show. Yeah, 1716 01:28:04,320 --> 01:28:06,599 Speaker 2: what's he doing, Let's call him. I think I saw 1717 01:28:06,680 --> 01:28:07,759 Speaker 2: thirty three and a half. 1718 01:28:08,479 --> 01:28:11,120 Speaker 3: Thirty one and a half. Okay, and that's with Smith 1719 01:28:11,120 --> 01:28:15,680 Speaker 3: and Tate. Yeah, questionable, that's yep, yep. I'm sure the 1720 01:28:16,600 --> 01:28:20,360 Speaker 3: Ohio State in Michigan and Indiana are not pleased with 1721 01:28:20,400 --> 01:28:22,280 Speaker 3: the rest of the conference, which has been a running 1722 01:28:22,320 --> 01:28:25,519 Speaker 3: joke for a while. With that conference agreed, there is 1723 01:28:25,560 --> 01:28:29,200 Speaker 3: only one other Top twenty five matchup this weekend outside 1724 01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:33,280 Speaker 3: of Missouri and Oklahoma. That would be usc Is traveling 1725 01:28:33,320 --> 01:28:37,519 Speaker 3: to Autson Stadium to take on Oregon. So you get 1726 01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:41,040 Speaker 3: that outside of Georgia is gonna take on one and 1727 01:28:41,200 --> 01:28:43,559 Speaker 3: nine Charlotte that spread his forty three and a half 1728 01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:47,280 Speaker 3: game for the forty nine ers. Notre Dame host Syracuse, 1729 01:28:47,520 --> 01:28:51,719 Speaker 3: Vanderbilt takes on Kentucky. What's Syracuse record three and seven? 1730 01:28:52,640 --> 01:28:55,639 Speaker 3: I was a believer in fran Brown. Yeah, it hasn't 1731 01:28:55,640 --> 01:28:59,200 Speaker 3: worked out. Well, I remember exchanging texts with Dan Horde 1732 01:28:59,439 --> 01:29:03,720 Speaker 3: about Frank Brown in the future of Syracuse football. Okay, well, 1733 01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:05,719 Speaker 3: I haven't heard much from Dan about that lately? 1734 01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:09,439 Speaker 2: Does the NFL slate get any better? Steelers Bears, the 1735 01:29:09,439 --> 01:29:11,880 Speaker 2: fate of Aaron Rodgers still up a good game, especially 1736 01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:14,519 Speaker 2: if Rodgers plays. I think Tomorrow night's sneaky good with 1737 01:29:14,560 --> 01:29:15,720 Speaker 2: the Texans getting. 1738 01:29:15,439 --> 01:29:18,719 Speaker 3: Too five and five. Yeah, CJ. Stroud not gonna play 1739 01:29:18,960 --> 01:29:21,040 Speaker 3: not gonna play it. And I keep seeing the clips 1740 01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:24,160 Speaker 3: of that concussion. That's just a gnarly concussion, Davis Mills. 1741 01:29:24,200 --> 01:29:29,639 Speaker 3: But that Texas Houston Texans front seven is nasty, dude. 1742 01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:34,840 Speaker 3: They create problems on opposing team's offenses. So uh yeah, 1743 01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:36,439 Speaker 3: I think that might be a sneaky good game. 1744 01:29:36,560 --> 01:29:39,479 Speaker 2: Lions cannot lose a step against the Giants because the 1745 01:29:39,520 --> 01:29:44,160 Speaker 2: Lions are out of the playoffs right now. Looking in, Packers, Vikings, Seahawks, Titans, Colts, Chiefs, 1746 01:29:44,160 --> 01:29:45,920 Speaker 2: Colts Chiefs would be a good one coach coming off 1747 01:29:45,920 --> 01:29:47,920 Speaker 2: of bye Chiefs. Also on the outside, looking in, the 1748 01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:51,960 Speaker 2: Jets take on the Baltimore Ravens, Brown's Raiders. That's a 1749 01:29:52,080 --> 01:29:52,639 Speaker 2: terrible game. 1750 01:29:52,760 --> 01:29:56,240 Speaker 3: Flex that to Sunday Night with Shadaddy out there, Eagles, Cowboys, 1751 01:29:56,280 --> 01:29:59,160 Speaker 3: Time Time, Bucks, Rams, Sunday Night. 1752 01:29:59,560 --> 01:30:01,920 Speaker 2: I'm in.

But 1754 01:30:05,040 --> 01:30:07,479 Speaker 3: I think that's a sneaky good game right there. For 1755 01:30:07,600 --> 01:30:11,160 Speaker 3: Carolina Dave Doutas, I'm a big fan of his, Rico, 1756 01:30:11,920 --> 01:30:14,200 Speaker 3: Uncle Rico.

Xavier was 1805 01:32:56,080 --> 01:32:59,719 Speaker 2: coming off back to back losses against Santa Clara and Iowa. 1806 01:33:00,680 --> 01:33:03,439 Speaker 2: They are looking ahead just a couple of days. They 1807 01:33:03,439 --> 01:33:05,840 Speaker 2: take on Georgia, which is a common opponent between both 1808 01:33:05,920 --> 01:33:09,920 Speaker 2: UC and Xavier in the non conference schedule. It was 1809 01:33:10,240 --> 01:33:14,800 Speaker 2: Richard Patino's two hundred and fiftieth career win as an 1810 01:33:14,920 --> 01:33:18,559 Speaker 2: NCAA coach last night, and they did so in big fashion. 1811 01:33:18,600 --> 01:33:21,280 Speaker 2: They jumped on old Dominion early. They led fifty one 1812 01:33:21,320 --> 01:33:23,840 Speaker 2: to twenty nine at half en route to a ninety 1813 01:33:23,920 --> 01:33:27,799 Speaker 2: nine to sixty nine win at the Sintas Center. Four 1814 01:33:28,320 --> 01:33:33,840 Speaker 2: different Xavier Musketeers all had twenty points in the game. 1815 01:33:33,880 --> 01:33:38,920 Speaker 2: That is insane. Four different Xavier Musketeers all eclipsed the 1816 01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:42,479 Speaker 2: twenty point plateau. This is what Richard Patino had to 1817 01:33:42,479 --> 01:33:44,160 Speaker 2: say after last night's win. 1818 01:33:45,720 --> 01:33:49,120 Speaker 8: First and foremost, thank you to our amazing fans. That 1819 01:33:49,280 --> 01:33:52,800 Speaker 8: was not a very pretty drive over with the weather, 1820 01:33:52,960 --> 01:33:57,960 Speaker 8: so to get over nine thousand just shows especially how 1821 01:33:58,000 --> 01:33:59,880 Speaker 8: we played the you know, the last time we're in 1822 01:33:59,880 --> 01:34:03,439 Speaker 8: the building, So very very appreciative of how loyal loyal 1823 01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:06,680 Speaker 8: our fans are. And you know, also want to give 1824 01:34:06,720 --> 01:34:09,240 Speaker 8: a great shout out to Bob colehep. You know, I 1825 01:34:09,280 --> 01:34:12,040 Speaker 8: know it's the twenty fifth year anniversary of this building 1826 01:34:12,200 --> 01:34:15,160 Speaker 8: opening up. This is one of the reasons I took 1827 01:34:15,240 --> 01:34:19,800 Speaker 8: the job was to have an on campus facility, you know, 1828 01:34:19,960 --> 01:34:21,920 Speaker 8: just right in the middle, you know, the heart of campus. 1829 01:34:21,960 --> 01:34:23,960 Speaker 8: I know Bob really fought for that and I think 1830 01:34:24,000 --> 01:34:27,240 Speaker 8: it's impacted this community in an amazing way. So his 1831 01:34:27,360 --> 01:34:31,479 Speaker 8: vision not only changed the basketball program, but it changed 1832 01:34:31,920 --> 01:34:35,519 Speaker 8: Xavier and very very appreciative of that. It's an amazing 1833 01:34:35,560 --> 01:34:41,519 Speaker 8: home court. We played great basketball today. Certainly, twenty nine assists, amazing, 1834 01:34:42,520 --> 01:34:44,920 Speaker 8: four guys in twenty points. I don't know if I've 1835 01:34:44,920 --> 01:34:48,080 Speaker 8: ever seen that, So a lot of really good things. 1836 01:34:48,120 --> 01:34:51,559 Speaker 8: Rebounded the basketball very very well, and you know, very 1837 01:34:51,640 --> 01:34:52,439 Speaker 8: very proud of the guys. 1838 01:34:53,680 --> 01:34:56,080 Speaker 2: Twenty nine assists to just nine turnovers will win you 1839 01:34:56,120 --> 01:34:59,120 Speaker 2: a lot of basketball games. They out rebounded Old Dominion 1840 01:34:59,200 --> 01:35:03,640 Speaker 2: by twenty five more steals. They blocked the ball, they 1841 01:35:03,720 --> 01:35:05,800 Speaker 2: rebounded the ball. It was just and that was It 1842 01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:07,640 Speaker 2: looked like a different Xavier team. And again it's a 1843 01:35:07,680 --> 01:35:11,559 Speaker 2: one game sample size, but Richard Patino is a good 1844 01:35:11,600 --> 01:35:14,400 Speaker 2: college basketball coach. This team is going to continue to 1845 01:35:14,400 --> 01:35:16,880 Speaker 2: get better. I also thought it was interesting kind of 1846 01:35:16,880 --> 01:35:20,760 Speaker 2: mixing around the starting lineup. Richard Patino said last night, 1847 01:35:20,800 --> 01:35:24,479 Speaker 2: I'm trying to establish a culture in year one of 1848 01:35:24,520 --> 01:35:27,760 Speaker 2: how we want to play. And now culture is okay, 1849 01:35:27,840 --> 01:35:30,639 Speaker 2: let's let's figure out the five that work. And kudos 1850 01:35:30,680 --> 01:35:33,320 Speaker 2: to Richard Patino who last night was able to do 1851 01:35:33,360 --> 01:35:36,879 Speaker 2: that for the Xavier Musketeers. Again, it's a quicker turnaround. 1852 01:35:36,880 --> 01:35:42,040 Speaker 2: It's a Friday night game for the Xavier Musketeers as 1853 01:35:42,320 --> 01:35:45,880 Speaker 2: they take on Georgia that is part of the Shriners 1854 01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:53,240 Speaker 2: Children's Charleston's Charleston Classic. I believe the way that is 1855 01:35:53,320 --> 01:35:55,320 Speaker 2: set up, I'm gonna pull up the bracket right now, 1856 01:35:56,240 --> 01:36:00,000 Speaker 2: I believe they would play if they win or lose, 1857 01:36:00,200 --> 01:36:02,240 Speaker 2: They're gonna play one of the two of West Virginia 1858 01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:08,240 Speaker 2: or Clemson as well. So Xavier will play Friday against 1859 01:36:08,280 --> 01:36:10,479 Speaker 2: Georgia and then they will turn around on Sunday and 1860 01:36:10,520 --> 01:36:14,439 Speaker 2: play either West Virginia or Clemson. Which is odd because 1861 01:36:14,479 --> 01:36:18,200 Speaker 2: Clemson is also a non conference opponent of the Cincinnati 1862 01:36:18,280 --> 01:36:20,960 Speaker 2: Bearcats as well, So potentially Xavier and U SEE both 1863 01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:24,439 Speaker 2: will be playing in the non conference Georgia and Clemson 1864 01:36:24,560 --> 01:36:28,720 Speaker 2: Xavier wins. We cannot say the same Austin for the 1865 01:36:28,760 --> 01:36:32,680 Speaker 2: Kentucky Wildcats last night, I wouldn't even say beaten. I 1866 01:36:32,720 --> 01:36:37,120 Speaker 2: would say smashed, demolished in all phases of the game. 1867 01:36:37,160 --> 01:36:39,880 Speaker 2: They went into the game. They went into the game 1868 01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:43,799 Speaker 2: against Michigan State as a favorite, and Michigan State dominated 1869 01:36:43,800 --> 01:36:46,720 Speaker 2: from start to finish forty four to twenty seven. Was 1870 01:36:46,760 --> 01:36:49,439 Speaker 2: the lead at half. That is the lead that it 1871 01:36:49,560 --> 01:36:54,680 Speaker 2: stayed throughout the game, eighty three sixty six. Tom Izzo 1872 01:36:54,760 --> 01:36:58,800 Speaker 2: and the Michigan State Spartans have a win already on 1873 01:36:58,880 --> 01:37:01,679 Speaker 2: this early season. Not as highly ranked of an early 1874 01:37:01,760 --> 01:37:04,720 Speaker 2: team for Michigan State, but they will be. They beat 1875 01:37:04,840 --> 01:37:08,920 Speaker 2: Arkansas and last night they took care of Kentucky. Kentucky 1876 01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:12,759 Speaker 2: I thought looked disjointed. I thought they looked lost at times. 1877 01:37:12,880 --> 01:37:17,240 Speaker 2: They do not play well together. Yet I know that 1878 01:37:17,240 --> 01:37:20,080 Speaker 2: that they're still getting guys back in the fold. I 1879 01:37:20,240 --> 01:37:24,000 Speaker 2: believe that they still have some injuries that they're dealing with, 1880 01:37:24,080 --> 01:37:28,559 Speaker 2: and not that that that gives you any type of 1881 01:37:29,520 --> 01:37:33,640 Speaker 2: freedom or any longer leash. I know Jayden Quinton's is 1882 01:37:33,680 --> 01:37:35,400 Speaker 2: not playing yet, and I know that's a big part 1883 01:37:35,439 --> 01:37:39,000 Speaker 2: of who they are and who they're going to be inside. 1884 01:37:39,040 --> 01:37:41,639 Speaker 2: But nonetheless, I know they had a lot of top 1885 01:37:41,680 --> 01:37:44,639 Speaker 2: fifteen wins last year. I know Mark Pope has done 1886 01:37:44,640 --> 01:37:47,360 Speaker 2: some good things Austin. There is a precedent set when 1887 01:37:47,400 --> 01:37:49,439 Speaker 2: you spend twenty two million dollars on a roster that 1888 01:37:49,479 --> 01:37:52,360 Speaker 2: you're going to win games, and so far this season, 1889 01:37:52,920 --> 01:37:57,000 Speaker 2: in their toughest games, they were not close for much 1890 01:37:57,040 --> 01:38:00,639 Speaker 2: of the game against Louisville, and they were not close 1891 01:38:00,760 --> 01:38:05,280 Speaker 2: last night against Michigan State. It's a Kentucky team that 1892 01:38:05,360 --> 01:38:08,960 Speaker 2: in the non conference still has to play North Carolina, Gonzaga, 1893 01:38:09,560 --> 01:38:14,040 Speaker 2: Saint John's before getting into SEC play and starting at Alabama. 1894 01:38:14,080 --> 01:38:16,439 Speaker 2: Those are all teams ranked in the top eighteen in 1895 01:38:16,479 --> 01:38:18,439 Speaker 2: the country. So Kentucky has a lot of work to do. 1896 01:38:18,840 --> 01:38:21,000 Speaker 2: They've got a lot to figure out. Do we have 1897 01:38:21,080 --> 01:38:23,640 Speaker 2: the audio of Mark Pope with Jeff Goodman after the 1898 01:38:23,640 --> 01:38:25,760 Speaker 2: game last night? We do? All right, that's what this 1899 01:38:25,840 --> 01:38:26,320 Speaker 2: sounds like. 1900 01:38:26,600 --> 01:38:28,400 Speaker 40: What are you going through right now in terms of 1901 01:38:28,400 --> 01:38:31,000 Speaker 40: the frustration after this loss. 1902 01:38:32,200 --> 01:38:34,240 Speaker 41: Well, I don't want to take away Anthony from Michigan say, 1903 01:38:34,240 --> 01:38:37,599 Speaker 41: because Tom is one of the great coaches in college 1904 01:38:37,640 --> 01:38:39,760 Speaker 41: of basketball. And those guys played tough and together and 1905 01:38:39,800 --> 01:38:45,280 Speaker 41: hard and played well. So you know, mostly just credit 1906 01:38:45,320 --> 01:38:52,799 Speaker 41: those guys and and we are facing a monumental challenge 1907 01:38:52,840 --> 01:38:57,200 Speaker 41: right now, and I'm excited to see if we can 1908 01:38:57,560 --> 01:38:58,480 Speaker 41: figure it out. 1909 01:38:58,880 --> 01:39:01,640 Speaker 40: You hinted that's something like this a week or so 1910 01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:04,240 Speaker 40: ago before the Louisville game or after the Louisville game. 1911 01:39:05,520 --> 01:39:08,599 Speaker 40: Did you sense that this has been kind of brewing 1912 01:39:08,680 --> 01:39:09,640 Speaker 40: throughout the preseason. 1913 01:39:13,000 --> 01:39:22,000 Speaker 41: No, I'm I'm I'm I'm disappointed with how disconnected we've been. 1914 01:39:26,080 --> 01:39:27,599 Speaker 11: I thought I had a better pulse. 1915 01:39:28,439 --> 01:39:30,400 Speaker 41: I thought I I thought I was doing a better 1916 01:39:30,479 --> 01:39:34,519 Speaker 41: job coaching than I'm doing right now. So it's been 1917 01:39:34,600 --> 01:39:39,439 Speaker 41: it's been eye opening for me a little bit. So, 1918 01:39:39,880 --> 01:39:41,400 Speaker 41: you know, I'm a little bit surprised. 1919 01:39:41,920 --> 01:39:44,600 Speaker 40: And by coaching, you're not talking about actually you know, 1920 01:39:44,680 --> 01:39:46,880 Speaker 40: it's as much as you're talking about getting these guys 1921 01:39:47,360 --> 01:39:50,920 Speaker 40: to play for the Kentucky name. 1922 01:39:52,320 --> 01:39:52,719 Speaker 11: Correct. 1923 01:39:53,120 --> 01:39:54,320 Speaker 2: No, I think it's everything. 1924 01:39:54,400 --> 01:39:58,320 Speaker 41: I think it's it's it's it's development culture, it's the 1925 01:39:58,400 --> 01:40:00,799 Speaker 41: right care, it's the right focus, it's the right schemes, 1926 01:40:00,840 --> 01:40:02,640 Speaker 41: it's the right next to the house. It's a im 1927 01:40:02,640 --> 01:40:05,519 Speaker 41: portant job. The nice thing is I can fix it, 1928 01:40:05,560 --> 01:40:10,000 Speaker 41: like we can fix it. But it's a really disappointing result. 1929 01:40:10,800 --> 01:40:13,160 Speaker 2: Austin, I don't know what even to make of that. 1930 01:40:13,160 --> 01:40:15,920 Speaker 2: That sounds like a defeated coach whose season just ended. 1931 01:40:16,120 --> 01:40:17,040 Speaker 2: Seem pretty broken. 1932 01:40:17,560 --> 01:40:21,160 Speaker 3: Obviously, his voice was gone from yelling, so that made 1933 01:40:21,200 --> 01:40:25,240 Speaker 3: it sound even worse. Yeah, it's been weary. Beginning, it 1934 01:40:25,560 --> 01:40:28,720 Speaker 3: felt like he had just watched his dog die. 1935 01:40:29,200 --> 01:40:31,360 Speaker 2: Like you remember after the Louisville game. I don't know 1936 01:40:31,400 --> 01:40:33,240 Speaker 2: if you caught this or not, but there was a 1937 01:40:33,280 --> 01:40:35,720 Speaker 2: point in which he said, quote, I'm not ready to 1938 01:40:35,760 --> 01:40:37,800 Speaker 2: tell the story yet, but at some point we'll talk 1939 01:40:37,840 --> 01:40:41,200 Speaker 2: in detail about our pregame experience at Louisville. It was 1940 01:40:41,240 --> 01:40:45,439 Speaker 2: out of character for us. That was odd idea. And 1941 01:40:45,479 --> 01:40:50,439 Speaker 2: then you start to kind of dive in to who 1942 01:40:50,560 --> 01:40:56,200 Speaker 2: and what this team has been. And there were rumblings 1943 01:40:56,280 --> 01:40:59,760 Speaker 2: last night that during a timeout in the second half 1944 01:40:59,760 --> 01:41:04,599 Speaker 2: play were quote barking at each other. It just feels 1945 01:41:04,680 --> 01:41:07,600 Speaker 2: like and Mark Pope added to it, his message isn't 1946 01:41:07,680 --> 01:41:11,360 Speaker 2: resonating with the team. He does not have a pulse 1947 01:41:11,360 --> 01:41:15,000 Speaker 2: on the team right now. And again, it's it's the 1948 01:41:15,040 --> 01:41:17,559 Speaker 2: tough part about college athletics right now. When you spend 1949 01:41:17,600 --> 01:41:20,400 Speaker 2: that much money on a roster, you've got a lot 1950 01:41:20,439 --> 01:41:24,160 Speaker 2: of different personalities coming into together and you'd better be 1951 01:41:24,200 --> 01:41:27,040 Speaker 2: able to manage them altogether. And right now, that is 1952 01:41:27,080 --> 01:41:31,519 Speaker 2: a struggle with the Kentucky Wildcats, now another team. The 1953 01:41:31,600 --> 01:41:33,920 Speaker 2: Kentucky lost to the Louisville Cardinals. They get ready to 1954 01:41:33,920 --> 01:41:38,000 Speaker 2: come to Heritage Bank Arena on Friday. Their head coach 1955 01:41:38,080 --> 01:41:40,400 Speaker 2: Pat Kelsey spent some time last night a few minutes 1956 01:41:40,400 --> 01:41:43,360 Speaker 2: with Lance McAllister. We'll get a little bit of that 1957 01:41:43,400 --> 01:41:45,280 Speaker 2: audio when we get back. We'll see if we get 1958 01:41:45,280 --> 01:41:48,599 Speaker 2: time for any phone calls next On ESPN fifteen thirty 1959 01:41:48,600 --> 01:41:51,000 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Sports Station.

We get all of your 2243 01:57:05,600 --> 01:57:09,160 Speaker 43: medical records, You have a one to two hour visit 2244 01:57:09,280 --> 01:57:12,919 Speaker 43: with an oncologist face to face or by telehealth, whichever 2245 01:57:13,080 --> 01:57:17,000 Speaker 43: is the preference. So you get amazing face time with 2246 01:57:17,080 --> 01:57:19,960 Speaker 43: a physician who just really sits down and goes through 2247 01:57:20,160 --> 01:57:23,800 Speaker 43: your whole diagnosis with you, soup to nuts, and so 2248 01:57:23,920 --> 01:57:28,360 Speaker 43: you really walk out of that visit understanding what's going on, 2249 01:57:28,680 --> 01:57:31,800 Speaker 43: understanding if you're on the right treatment plan. Our physicians 2250 01:57:31,800 --> 01:57:36,600 Speaker 43: communicate with your physicians so that it's all very synergistic, 2251 01:57:36,840 --> 01:57:41,760 Speaker 43: and we really like to think of ourselves as honest brokers. 2252 01:57:41,800 --> 01:57:44,560 Speaker 43: We're not trying to compete, we're not trying to treat 2253 01:57:44,560 --> 01:57:47,360 Speaker 43: the patient. We're consultative only, and we just really are 2254 01:57:47,800 --> 01:57:50,800 Speaker 43: altruistically wanting the best for patients. 2255 01:57:50,560 --> 01:57:52,960 Speaker 2: It's a separate side because I think so many with 2256 01:57:53,000 --> 01:57:55,920 Speaker 2: a cancer diagnosis or someone they know with a cancer diagnosis, 2257 01:57:55,960 --> 01:57:59,200 Speaker 2: you feel lost, You feel lonely. At times, you probably 2258 01:57:59,240 --> 01:58:01,200 Speaker 2: just feel like you're going through the motions, and you 2259 01:58:01,240 --> 01:58:04,600 Speaker 2: guys come in and offer what feels like a partnership 2260 01:58:04,600 --> 01:58:07,920 Speaker 2: where your a voice is actually heard exactly and there's 2261 01:58:08,360 --> 01:58:11,520 Speaker 2: other options. So many times that diagnosis itself can be 2262 01:58:12,200 --> 01:58:14,720 Speaker 2: dark and consuming, and you guys are offering hope and 2263 01:58:15,760 --> 01:58:19,520 Speaker 2: second opinions and chances to people that I think the 2264 01:58:19,560 --> 01:58:21,240 Speaker 2: biggest thing for me is I just I don't think 2265 01:58:21,280 --> 01:58:24,360 Speaker 2: people know enough about this being out there and something 2266 01:58:24,400 --> 01:58:27,360 Speaker 2: that they can take advantage of to help them or 2267 01:58:27,400 --> 01:58:28,160 Speaker 2: help a loved one. 2268 01:58:28,240 --> 01:58:31,760 Speaker 43: That's right, it's very unique.

It was with John Tortorella. Yeah, that 2449 02:07:26,480 --> 02:07:27,960 Speaker 14: you used to be the coach of the Blue Jackets, 2450 02:07:27,960 --> 02:07:29,440 Speaker 14: because he was a guy like if you asked him 2451 02:07:29,440 --> 02:07:30,440 Speaker 14: the wrong question, he kind. 2452 02:07:30,280 --> 02:07:32,400 Speaker 2: Of like yell at you. And we had him on 2453 02:07:32,440 --> 02:07:32,800 Speaker 2: in the middle. 2454 02:07:32,880 --> 02:07:35,000 Speaker 14: Blue Jackets won like seventeen straight games, and we got 2455 02:07:35,080 --> 02:07:38,480 Speaker 14: him on and I'm like, all right, look, if I 2456 02:07:38,520 --> 02:07:40,480 Speaker 14: asked the wrong question, this man may yell at me. 2457 02:07:40,600 --> 02:07:42,080 Speaker 2: And it turned out he was awesome. 2458 02:07:42,480 --> 02:07:44,520 Speaker 14: I'm a little nervous about this one because I don't 2459 02:07:44,600 --> 02:07:46,000 Speaker 14: quite know how good it's gonna be. 2460 02:07:46,680 --> 02:07:48,600 Speaker 2: Fair. See, by the way, I didn't give you credit 2461 02:07:49,080 --> 02:07:51,520 Speaker 2: earlier this week, I don't deserve it. I thought that 2462 02:07:51,560 --> 02:07:53,960 Speaker 2: you crafted one of your best tweets over the weekend, which, 2463 02:07:54,280 --> 02:07:56,720 Speaker 2: when referring to that robot falling as you walking back 2464 02:07:56,760 --> 02:07:58,920 Speaker 2: to your hotel room multiple times at the Sugar Bowl 2465 02:07:59,720 --> 02:08:02,680 Speaker 2: just the but my goodness, that's a fantastic tweet. So 2466 02:08:02,720 --> 02:08:04,360 Speaker 2: I wanted to give you your credit now. And some 2467 02:08:04,440 --> 02:08:07,480 Speaker 2: would say, who were there? Pretty accurate? Yeah, yeah, probably 2468 02:08:07,520 --> 02:08:08,880 Speaker 2: con have hand some players that did the same. 2469 02:08:09,040 --> 02:08:11,920 Speaker 14: I was gonna make a joke about like Joe Flacco 2470 02:08:12,080 --> 02:08:14,200 Speaker 14: or somebody, but I said I made the Joe good 2471 02:08:14,240 --> 02:08:16,120 Speaker 14: put myself. 2472 02:08:17,680 --> 02:08:23,520 Speaker 2: Zach Taylor today did not solidify Joe Flacco is starting 2473 02:08:23,960 --> 02:08:27,880 Speaker 2: on Sunday, so he also did not completely rule out 2474 02:08:28,200 --> 02:08:30,280 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow is doing anything but needing to take eleven 2475 02:08:30,320 --> 02:08:33,840 Speaker 2: on eleven reps. So maybe a stupid question, why can't 2476 02:08:33,920 --> 02:08:36,200 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow just play Sunday? That's what I'm thinking. Do 2477 02:08:36,280 --> 02:08:37,200 Speaker 2: you think that door's open? 2478 02:08:37,920 --> 02:08:41,640 Speaker 14: Why wouldn't it be Joe Flacco is not practicing, Joe 2479 02:08:41,640 --> 02:08:45,040 Speaker 14: Burrow is, Why don't you play the guy who's practicing? 2480 02:08:45,040 --> 02:08:47,200 Speaker 2: Who's better? I think James. 2481 02:08:47,240 --> 02:08:49,240 Speaker 3: I think it was James who said, is there a 2482 02:08:49,280 --> 02:08:52,400 Speaker 3: scenario where Joe Burrow? And Zach Taylor said, Joe Burrow 2483 02:08:52,400 --> 02:08:54,240 Speaker 3: hasn't practiced eleven on eleven yet. 2484 02:08:54,040 --> 02:08:56,760 Speaker 14: But today he is. But today he is and Joe 2485 02:08:56,760 --> 02:08:59,640 Speaker 14: Flacco is not practicing because he has a hurt shoulder. 2486 02:09:00,080 --> 02:09:03,080 Speaker 3: And when he was asked basically if Flacco would start, 2487 02:09:03,400 --> 02:09:06,480 Speaker 3: he said, we'll see. 2488 02:09:05,320 --> 02:09:12,800 Speaker 2: Oh, is it possible. The intrigue continues. This members can't play. 2489 02:09:12,800 --> 02:09:14,400 Speaker 2: There's even more reason to put Burrow. 2490 02:09:14,600 --> 02:09:17,720 Speaker 14: Just just just when I thought I was out the. 2491 02:09:19,440 --> 02:09:19,560 Speaker 21: Right. 2492 02:09:19,920 --> 02:09:23,360 Speaker 3: You gotta win the last seven in a row. Win 2493 02:09:23,360 --> 02:09:24,800 Speaker 3: the last seven if you don't win the first one. 2494 02:09:24,920 --> 02:09:27,400 Speaker 14: And if Joe Burrow is gonna play meaningful games, well, 2495 02:09:27,440 --> 02:09:28,440 Speaker 14: this game is meaningful. 2496 02:09:29,080 --> 02:09:32,560 Speaker 2: That's true. They're not eliminated. Here's not eliminated yet. And 2497 02:09:32,600 --> 02:09:33,280 Speaker 2: then if you. 2498 02:09:33,360 --> 02:09:36,400 Speaker 14: Know what will happen, don't don't win on Sunday and 2499 02:09:36,440 --> 02:09:39,080 Speaker 14: on Monday, you know, and we're gonna be going to 2500 02:09:39,120 --> 02:09:40,440 Speaker 14: the playoffs simulator. 2501 02:09:40,800 --> 02:09:42,680 Speaker 2: We're gonna be looking at all you know, if he. 2502 02:09:42,960 --> 02:09:43,440 Speaker 3: Is it bad? 2503 02:09:43,480 --> 02:09:46,040 Speaker 2: I did that this morning. Why I was on the simulator. 2504 02:09:46,640 --> 02:09:48,800 Speaker 14: Here's if they win their last seven games, they will 2505 02:09:48,840 --> 02:09:50,920 Speaker 14: be a playoff team. Okay, I got that hard figured 2506 02:09:51,280 --> 02:09:53,840 Speaker 14: to get a mock draft today, I'm not doing Matt 2507 02:09:53,840 --> 02:09:56,760 Speaker 14: Miller had them passing on Caleb Downs to take an 2508 02:09:56,840 --> 02:09:58,920 Speaker 14: edge rusher from Auburn who has two sacks. This year, 2509 02:09:59,040 --> 02:10:04,440 Speaker 14: the Internet and I will both lose my mind lose. 2510 02:10:05,160 --> 02:10:06,600 Speaker 14: How do you know a mock draft when you don't 2511 02:10:06,640 --> 02:10:08,360 Speaker 14: know what order the the teams are gonna be in. 2512 02:10:08,360 --> 02:10:10,520 Speaker 3: Bengals are picking ninth according to Matt Melly also had 2513 02:10:10,560 --> 02:10:12,320 Speaker 3: like two trades in the first two picks in that 2514 02:10:12,360 --> 02:10:14,960 Speaker 3: mock draft, Cleveland took another quarterback. Did you get to 2515 02:10:14,960 --> 02:10:17,080 Speaker 3: hear anything about it? Do you hear Ben Roethlisberger's comment? 2516 02:10:17,880 --> 02:10:19,120 Speaker 2: You talk about like a world. 2517 02:10:19,200 --> 02:10:21,600 Speaker 14: I don't want to be in the world where anything 2518 02:10:21,800 --> 02:10:24,560 Speaker 14: related to Ben Roethlisberger enters into it. 2519 02:10:24,600 --> 02:10:30,960 Speaker 2: What did Ben have to say? He essentially said that 2520 02:10:31,000 --> 02:10:33,880 Speaker 2: there was at least respect between the Steelers and the 2521 02:10:34,000 --> 02:10:36,560 Speaker 2: Ravens and their rivalry, and that there's not respect between 2522 02:10:36,560 --> 02:10:40,040 Speaker 2: the Bengals. Okay, find of makes the rivalry a little 2523 02:10:40,040 --> 02:10:42,160 Speaker 2: more heated for me. Yeah, fine, these teams don't like 2524 02:10:42,200 --> 02:10:43,000 Speaker 2: each other. Okay. 2525 02:10:43,480 --> 02:10:46,800 Speaker 14: I don't need Ben Roethlisberger's respect. I don't want his respect. 2526 02:10:47,040 --> 02:10:48,320 Speaker 14: Ben Roethlisberger is a chud. 2527 02:10:48,400 --> 02:10:50,960 Speaker 2: You draw the line of big Ben Steelers fans don't 2528 02:10:51,040 --> 02:10:51,640 Speaker 2: like him. 2529 02:10:51,800 --> 02:10:53,400 Speaker 14: You ever talked to a Steelers fan and it's like, 2530 02:10:53,400 --> 02:10:55,280 Speaker 14: how do you feel about Ben?
