8
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 2: phenomenal weekend of athletic prowess starting Saturday with the games starting,

9
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 2: rolling right into last night with Baseball Dodgers padres that

10
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 2: type of game show haes first time in the playoffs

11
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 2: and what did he do? He delivered. But I say

12
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 2: all that to say, of course, it's a football Sunday,

13
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 2: and I'm here and excited about this show. I was

14
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 2: excited about the games all day to day. It was unbelievable.

15
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 2: The thing I realized is that I don't know anything

16
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 2: about teams, schedules, how they're going to win, lose, Pick them,

17
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 2: don't pick them. I'm glad I'm not a gambler, because

18
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 2: if I was, I'd be really bad at it. I'll

19
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 2: be the first to tell you I'm not like psychotic

20
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 2: die hard baseball fan. I'm not. I fell in love

21
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 2: with baseball and got to really understand baseball last, you know,

22
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 2: the last six or seven years because I became a coach.

23
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 2: My kids played, so I jumped into it, and so

24
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 2: it really made me understand the nuance of the game,

25
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 2: just how great the game is. And then when I

26
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 2: tell you, I had turned off all of the college

27
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 2: football games, even though I have a beautiful setup where

28
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 2: I can watch multiple things. Thank you to my wife. Again,

29
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 2: I just couldn't help but just only watch the Dodgers

30
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 2: Padres first game of the NLDS, and it was amazing.

31
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 2: Like me, I wanted to see what shoe Hey would do,

32
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,119
Speaker 2: and he was phenomenal.

33
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 3: Are you from this Steve at the desk? Did you

34
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 3: see the press conference the day before the open Yes?

35
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 2: The question, I was getting ready to get there. I

36
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 2: was getting ready.

37
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

38
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: Absolutely. You know what, And the funny thing is because

39
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 2: because my wife is, I mean my wife's mother, my

40
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 2: mother in law is a I'm talking about a die

41
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 2: hard Cubs fan. She loves baseball. My wife's whole side

42
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 2: of the family, they all love baseball. So she had

43
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 2: a conversation with me. She was like he was up

44
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 2: at bat the first time, and she was like, do

45
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: you think he's nervous? How do you think he's feeling

46
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 2: like this is a big deal? Like how do you

47
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 2: she as a former athlete, how do you deal with

48
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,519
Speaker 2: that type of pressure? And I said, oh, he's fine.

49
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 2: I said, he's fine because he knows he's better than

50
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 2: everybody else. It's different going into a situation where you're like,

51
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: oh my god, man, I hope I can you know,

52
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 2: live up to it. I hope I can compete at

53
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: this level, being the postseason. But it's another one when

54
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 2: you go in and like, oh, I'm better than everyone,

55
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 2: Like I'm better than that picture, I'm better than everyone

56
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: they have over there, And all I got to do

57
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 2: is be me. And it was evident. And prior to that,

58
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: I didn't see the press conference. But this morning my

59
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 2: mother in law texted me that press conference and they

60
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,560
Speaker 2: asked him the question, you know, how how's it going

61
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 2: to be? Are you nervous about being your first time

62
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 2: in the postseason. He had a one word answer, and

63
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 2: it was nope.

64
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 4: And he didn't wait for the translation show.

65
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 2: No, he knew. He knew exactly what was going on

66
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 2: and Look, if I didn't know shoe Hey didn't speak clear,

67
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 2: perfect fluent English, I wouldn't have known from that one

68
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 2: word answer. It didn't have an accent on it. It

69
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 2: was as clear as day. And that was nope. And

70
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 2: he went out there and performed, and it was amazing

71
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 2: coming up to bat and you're already down by three

72
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 2: runs and you got two on base, and the whole world,

73
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 2: not just your team, not just the stadium, the whole world,

74
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 2: it's like, well, let's see what this guy, this show,

75
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 2: hey guy, this fifty to fifty guy from the regular season,

76
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,280
Speaker 2: let's see what he's about. And all he did was

77
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 2: hit a three run home run.

78
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,280
Speaker 4: And quickly tied and changed.

79
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 2: The immediately immediately changed the game.

80
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 3: Because keep in mind the context, the Dodgers had lost

81
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 3: six playoff games.

82
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 2: In a row.

83
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 3: We couldn't hit in the postseason exactly all three last

84
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 3: year and never led in the series and were out meekly,

85
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 3: and then lost the last three to the Padres the

86
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:10,160
Speaker 3: year before. Down three nothing quickly last night, the Dodgers,

87
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 3: in their very long postseason history, when they were down

88
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 3: three or more after the first inning, had literally never

89
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 3: won a playoff game before last night and they literally

90
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 3: had never had Shoho Tani on their roster before last night.

91
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what, And I know this is

92
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 2: football Sundays, but I just wanted to get this out

93
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,040
Speaker 2: because I don't know when we're gonna get to it. Okay,

94
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 2: I can tell you, in my opinion, who felt a

95
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 2: huge sigh of relief, and that would have to be

96
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:43,919
Speaker 2: Mookie Bets. As we know, since he's been a Dodger,

97
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 2: Mookie hasn't lived up to the billing that he has

98
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 2: in the regular season.

99
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 3: In twenty twenty and they won the series, and he wasn't.

100
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 3: The next three years, right were out quickly, and.

101
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 2: So just having that amount of pressure on you, right,

102
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 2: and then having someone like when he got hurt and

103
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 2: they switched the lineup and had show Hate leading off

104
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 2: right and Mookie Batten second, it took so much pressure

105
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 2: off of him. And you saw that yesterday in that

106
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 2: first in when they came up and Show Hey tied

107
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 2: the game up before he could even blink, and it

108
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 2: just changed everything. It changed how you would approach you

109
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 2: to change the level of pressure Mookie would have possibly felt,

110
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 2: because it would have been like, hey man, you have

111
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 2: to do this for us.

112
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 3: Henny walked three times last night bets, and they kept

113
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 3: getting guys on base and making a very good Padre

114
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 3: pitching staff work. Now tonight's game, which is also on

115
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 3: FS one second batter of the night for ten Bernando

116
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 3: Tatist junior Homers, it's Padres one nothing at la bottom

117
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 3: of the first. He absolutely owns Dodger Stadium. But we

118
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 3: all thought this would be a good series going in.

119
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 3: I don't think it's gonna disappoint us quite frankly. Meanwhile,

120
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 3: we've got an NFL matchup that's Dallas at Pittsburgh. It

121
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 3: seems like, oh man, Dallas at Pittsburgh, I gotta see this.

122
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 3: Have you seen Pittsburgh's offense this year? Have you seen

123
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 3: Dallas this year? Because the Steelers somehow are three and one. Well,

124
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 3: it's not somehow. They're allowing only thirteen points a game.

125
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 3: That's the somehow, So you score fourteen you can just

126
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 3: keep winning. It seems like with the Cowboys' opponent this year,

127
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 3: and will that happen tonight? The Cowboys, you may have heard,

128
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 3: don't really have a running game at this point. They

129
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 3: got Ezekiel Elliott back this year and said that's our

130
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 3: running game.

131
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, they dropped the ball on that, right. Remember a

132
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago or last week or whenever, and

133
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 2: the question was photoed out there to Jay Jones, Hey,

134
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 2: how come you guys inn try to go get Dereck Henry. Oh,

135
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 2: we couldn't afford dare Henry. Well, all Derrick Henry has

136
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 2: done was is just dominate.

137
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, dominate like he's the number one rush offense in

138
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 3: the league.

139
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 4: Baltimore.

140
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 2: I mean, when you see things like that, you gotta

141
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 2: scratch your here. And I look, I know Dallas Cowboy fans.

142
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 2: They're the most optimistic fans in the world. I mean,

143
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,679
Speaker 2: you can call it optimism, you can call it delusional fans,

144
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 2: whatever you want to call it. They're always trying to

145
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 2: find the silver lining, and to me, it's not one.

146
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 2: At this point, defense isn't living up to the building.

147
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 2: They can't run the ball. They're putting a lot of

148
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 2: pressure on their sixty million dollars a year quarterback and

149
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 2: they're thirty million dollars a year receiver. I get it,

150
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 2: but you gotta have more. You have to have more,

151
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 2: and the fact that they don't, you know, it concerns me.

152
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 2: On top of that they're in. I believe a weather

153
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 2: delay to start this game. So yes, for people who

154
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 2: are like, turn the game on, it's supposed to be

155
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 2: on right now. It's a little bit weather delay. So

156
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,120

189
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 2: I went to that game last year. I think it

190
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 2: was Bill's Jaguars. My nephew's going to school out in

191
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 2: Southampton out there, so I went out there and had

192
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 2: some bonding, you know, nephew nephew uncle time. Yeah, it

193
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 2: was a great time. Took him to the game. It

194
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 2: was amazing. He got us lost going back to the hotel.

195
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 2: But I'm like, all right, you know, we'll figure it out.

196
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 2: After I was mad and I calmed down because I'm like, man,

197
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 2: look all right, we're taking buses and tubes and all

198
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 2: kinds of stuff. But just watching that game, and yes

199
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 2: I did get up at six thirty. Well, I'm gonna

200
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 2: be honest I DVR at the game and I got

201
00:10:58,679 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 2: up at eight.

202
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: Oh see, now I actually did. I mean I might

203
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 1: have missed, you know, the first driver or two.

204
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 2: But yeah, you gotta be you gotta gotta work smarter

205
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:08,080
Speaker 2: that hard.

206
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I had that thing on though. By six forty

207
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: five I was ready to go.

208
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 2: No, man, tape it right DV all right that way

209
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 2: when you wake up, right, I gave myself what you know,

210
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 2: came on at six thirty eight o'clock. I'm up eight fifteen,

211
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 2: I'm watching and it ran because I can skip everything.

212
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 2: It ran right into the games.

213
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: So you did the math so that you could watch

214
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: perfect without commercials but still have it. And when right

215
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 1: zone starts, yes, okay, okay, that's next level.

216
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 2: And it was Look, look I'm not you know, I'm

217
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 2: not new to this man. Okay, I've been doing this

218
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 2: for a long time. But just watching that Jets Minnesota game.

219
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 2: Shout out to Minnesota. They're five and oh shoutout producer Patrick,

220
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 2: who has not changed his uh justin Jefferson, Jersey since

221
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 2: the season has started. He refused uses to not wear

222
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 2: it because for maybe they will lose the game. Patrick,

223
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 2: have you watched it or is it just I'm just

224
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 2: gonna wear it.

225
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,680
Speaker 6: Listen, man, I am a man of culture. I will

226
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 6: be honest. Of course, I watch it every week. I'm

227
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:16,720
Speaker 6: a man of culture.

228
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: There's no problem with him with you wearing it every Sunday,

229
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: provided that the good stuff happens on Tuesday. We're gonna

230
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: need load of laundry every Tuesday.

231
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 6: I do my laundry every Monday, every Monday, and I

232
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,079
Speaker 6: don't wear this jersey until Sunday.

233
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 2: Okay, So what makes sense?

234
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 1: So what happens when the Vikings play on Monday night?

235
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: What about that? Now? What do we do?

236
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 6: Well, you know what, It's still gonna be clean from

237
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 6: the last time. I haven't been putting it on until

238
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 6: game day.

239
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,199
Speaker 1: Come on, Okay, Okay, I'm satisfied.

240
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 2: We appreciate that. But watching old ass Aaron Rodgers and

241
00:12:52,720 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 2: the Jets, it's it's giving me elder abuse. Okay, it's

242
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 2: giving me. You know why I feel crazy? And I'll

243
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 2: tell you why. Aaron Rodgers is an all time great. Right.

244
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 2: He happened to go over sixty thousand passing yards today

245
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 2: in this game, which is unbelievable, you know, even more

246
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 2: unbelievable looking at how many passing yard dan Dan Reno

247
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 2: has and he's not of this era. That's crazy to me.

248
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 2: But I digress. Watching Aaron Rodgers and this is a

249
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 2: one score game, okay, And it was outside of the

250
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 2: first quarter, it was a one score game for predominantly

251
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 2: the entire game.

252
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:43,440
Speaker 1: Ye.

253
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 2: And to hand the ball off fourteen times to Breese

254
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 2: Hall and Braylan Allen is crazy to me. And you

255
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 2: have a forty plus year old quarterback throwing the ball

256
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 2: fifty four times and a one score game game three interceptions,

257
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 2: and even even while he wasn't playing his best, and

258
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 2: they got the ball with a chance to win, I said, Oh,

259
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers is gonna kick in in trouble now, Like

260
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 2: I had fooled myself thinking that Aaron Rodgers was about

261
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 2: to pull a rabbit out of his hat, not counting

262
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 2: the fact that he hadn't been good in three years.

263
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 2: And so it was like, oh, no, this is Aaron Rodgers. Now.

264
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:48,479
Speaker 2: Remember Peyton Manning his last year in Denver, they benched him.

265
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 2: They benched Peyton Manning, one of the all time great

266
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 2: one of my favorite quarterback.

267
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: Who was the came in was that like ro something

268
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: rock os Wiler.

269
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Go check his carell. They've been Peyton Manning

270
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 2: for brock Osweiler, but they end up the team was

271
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 2: so good, the defense was unbelievable, the offensive weapons were there.

272
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 2: They just needed somebody to just be steady, right, take

273
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 2: a lot of like when you have all time grades

274
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 2: and they diminishing talent, they still, like I said last week,

275
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 2: their minds are still hitting on that level. I can

276
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 2: still do it. I know you. No, you can't. And

277
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 2: although you can throw some pretty passes now and then,

278
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 2: they just needed someone not to throw three interceptions, not

279
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 2: to stumble out of, you know, a play action. And

280
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 2: of course they put Peyton Manning back in in playoffs

281
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 2: and then they won the Super Bowl. But watching Aaron

282
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 2: Rodgers reminded me of Peyton's last year. Well, I'm like, mentally,

283
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 2: I believe he's there now. Look, he didn't get any

284
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 2: help from the drops. There's still a lot of times

285
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 2: they're not on the same page. The back showed, the

286
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 2: throws aren't there, and so on and so forth. But

287
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 2: in a one score game and you looking at Aaron

288
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 2: Rodgers thinking you're going to get the magic and you

289
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 2: just get the hat is disappointing. For me.

290
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: You want to share with everyone what I texted you

291
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 1: at nine thirty two this morning, Yes, this morning.

292
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 2: The Jets hate.

293
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 1: They don't like him. They don't like Breshall. They hate him,

294
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: and I don't know why. And yes, you know this

295
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: is that is the ravings of a fantasy manager who

296
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: wants to know what the hell happened to his first

297
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 1: round draft pick who got four yards last week and

298
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 1: then this week was able to tally a whopping. But

299
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: look at their behavior, their behavior would suggest and I

300
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: get it. I know that people don't want to go

301
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 1: all in on a bell count now on most NFL teams.

302
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,679
Speaker 1: But Braylan Allen is getting a lot of snaps and

303
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,399
Speaker 1: he's a good player, like he did. This rookie looks

304
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 1: very very interesting. But to have Brece Hall tally up

305
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 1: nineteen carries the last two weeks, the last two weeks combined,

306
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: he has tallied nineteen carries that has netted the Jets

307
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 1: a total of twenty seven yards, and today he also

308
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: had three catches for fourteen yards. It's the number of snaps,

309
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,479
Speaker 1: it's the usage. By the way, during that time, in

310
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 1: those two games, they've talied a total of twenty six points.

311
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: That's it, and so I'm with you, And it's actually

312
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: not about being a fantasy manager. With bres Hall on

313
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: the team. I just don't get it. He is your

314
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 1: best player. He is a dynamic player. Your quarterback's forty

315
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 1: years old. I don't care if your quarterback's twenty five

316
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: years old. I want to lean on a running back

317
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 1: when I have won. You're one of the few teams

318
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: in the league that has a great one. They won't

319
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: use him.

320
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 2: Do you know what it's like. It's like having someone

321
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 2: like Steve de Sager and not going to him thirty

322
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 2: after the hour for three hours. That's ridiculous. Steven are disacre.

323
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 4: And the A the R is four ridiculous.

324
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, sometimes you go to him at seven after

325
00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 1: the hour too, just because it's.

326
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 3: Just because that was also ridiculous. Yeah, the NF you're welcome.

327
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 3: After the NFL matchup, we haven't missed anything. I mean,

328
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,760
Speaker 3: I'm not sure we were gonna get anything either the

329
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,199
Speaker 3: way Dallas and Pittsburgh are playing on some sides of

330
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 3: the ball, but that is the matchup tonight.

331
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,160
Speaker 4: It sounds good on paper.

332
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 3: Because of NFL history, Dak Prescott has been a winning quarterback,

333
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 3: to say the least in primetime games, how about a

334
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 3: seven hundred winning percentage? The only qbs better in history

335
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 3: in primetime Steve Young, Joe Montana, and Peyton Manning. Patrick

336
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 3: Mahomes could get up to about a seven hundred winning

337
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 3: percentage with his primetime game tomorrow. But Dak is twenty

338
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 3: six and eleven in these primetime games going into tonight.

339
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 3: The problem is they haven't kicked off yet. There's a

340
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 3: severe thunderstorm warning in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The players were cleared

341
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,640
Speaker 3: off the field, even the pregame TV set was cleared

342
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 3: off the field. The rain has just started now, but

343
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 3: the rain's really not the problem, and the temperatures in

344
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,439
Speaker 3: the seventies in Pittsburgh not terribly windy. Huge lightning strike

345
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 3: yet another in just recent minutes. So if you were

346
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 3: asking for a guess, there's no way this is kicking

347
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 3: off before nine pm Eastern. It's going to be a

348
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:48,360
Speaker 3: late night in Pittsburgh. Fans were initially asked to leave

349
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 3: their seats. Apparently they can be back now, but even

350
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 3: the broadcast, the national TV broadcast is not at the

351
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,199
Speaker 3: stadium at this point. We can tell you as far

352
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 3: as the enact is. Dallas is without linebacker Mike Arsons

353
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,719
Speaker 3: tonight in his high ankle sprain. Dallas wide receiver Brandon

354
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 3: Cooks is on IR with a knee injury. Trey Lance

355
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 3: is the emergency third quarterback. Russell Wilson is the emergency

356
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 3: third quarterback for the Steelers, who are missing injured running

357
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 3: backs Jalen Warren. Also, Cordero Patterson is inactive at running

358
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 3: back linebacker Alex Heighsmith as well. We'll get to the

359
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 3: rest of the NFL or some of the rest of

360
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 3: the NFL in a moment. Updating the baseball playoffs on

361
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,160
Speaker 3: FS one right now, Padres with two homers, lead three

362
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 3: to nothing in LA in the bottom of the second inning.

363
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,400
Speaker 3: The Dodgers in their last five playoff games in the

364
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:40,399
Speaker 3: first inning have allowed thirteen runs in those five playoff games,

365
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 3: including three last night, including a Fernando Tatist junior homer

366
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 3: in the first tonight, David peralta ex Dodger with a

367
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 3: two run homer in the second off, LA starter, and

368
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:54,119
Speaker 3: LA native Jack Flaherty. We were talking about Mookie Betts

369
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 3: of the Dodgers in segment one. It looked like Bets

370
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 3: in his first at bat hit it out, but the

371
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 3: fielder Jerks and Profar of the Padres reached into the

372
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 3: fans in the left field seats and stole it for

373
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 3: an out and impressive catch, but it's three to nothing

374
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 3: San Diego, bottom of the second thrilling playoff game in Philadelphia. Earlier,

375
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 3: Phil's beat the Mets seven to six with a run

376
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 3: in the bottom of the ninth. The Mets had tied

377
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 3: it in the top of the ninth on a two

378
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 3: run homer. After Edwin Diaz of the Mets allowed three

379
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 3: runs in the bottom of the eighth added all up

380
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 3: that best of five tied and a game apiece. The

381
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 3: two American League Division series continued tomorrow. NASCAR victory for

382
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 3: Ricky Stenhouse, the Texas Longhorns are back to number one

383
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,159
Speaker 3: in the new AP College Football Poll, and we have

384
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,640
Speaker 3: an early nominee for Game of the Year in the NFL.

385
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 3: Baltimore in overtime won at Cincinnati today forty one to

386
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 3: thirty eight despite five touchdown passes from Joe Burrow. Justin

387
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 3: Tucker tied at lighton regulation with a fifty six yard

388
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 3: field goal. He hit the game winner, a short field

389
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 3: goal right after a Derrick Henry fifty one yard run.

390
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 3: Henry today with his one hundredth career touchdown. He's over

391
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 3: ten thousand yards rushing in his career as well. Houston

392
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 3: won on a fifty nine yard field goal final play

393
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 3: twenty three to twenty over Buffalo. At Jacksonville, the Jags,

394
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,359
Speaker 3: who were zero to four, kicked a forty nine yard

395
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 3: field goal with under twenty seconds left to beat Indy

396
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 3: thirty seven to thirty four. Wins for Chicago and Miami.

397
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 3: Wins for Washington and Minnesota, which took the London game

398
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 3: twenty three seventeen over the Jets, Vikings five and oh

399
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,479
Speaker 3: Denver came back to beat Las Vegas, Green Bay one

400
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 3: at the Rams, Giants over Seattle, and Arizonta wins at

402
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 3: a half left, twenty four to twenty three. San Francisco's

403
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 3: record two and three oh and three in conference updating.

404
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 3: Dodgers have bases loaded, no outs, bottom of the second

405
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 3: down three to nothing to the Padres against X Dodger

406
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 3: You Darvish, who, he says, sarcastically, they really love at

407
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 3: Dodger Stadium, Back to you, great.

408
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: Stuff, Steve as always and love the inflection in his

409
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: voice what he mentions the forty nine ers situation. We'll

410
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: get to that later for sure. Live tire rag dot

411
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: Com Studios, Mark with Itty from Salam. Glad you're with

412
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: us Week five NFL and yeah, we're still catching our breath.

413
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 1: But before we get to all of the teams and people,

414
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 1: we need to rip because there's always plenty at this hour.

415
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 1: Can we go to the other direction for a second.

416
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 1: I might end up starting off every single show by

417
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 1: complementing your prediction. And we make tons of predictions, so

418
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,679
Speaker 1: there's sure to be some that are right and plenty

419
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: that are sure to be wrong. But there are certain

420
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,639
Speaker 1: ones to me that stand out, especially the ones that

421
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,640
Speaker 1: are a little eye popping and ear popping at the beginning,

422
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 1: and then they look really good. So I'm just gonna

423
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 1: say every week that you said that the Washington Commanders

424
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: are going to win the NFC East, and I don't

425
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: know if that all is totally gonna happen, but what

426
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: I am really truly starting to believe is that their

427
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 1: quarterback is the next big thing in the NFL.

428
00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 2: Just watching this young man play, it is a different

429
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 2: Washington team. They got it right. Ownership, draft, coach, they

430
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:13,880
Speaker 2: got it all right. And when you get it all right,

431
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 2: we saw a team come from nowhere last year who

432
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 2: got it all right, and that was the Houston Texans. Right.

433
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 2: It starts there, It starts with the new coach, it

434
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 2: starts with the pick and the draft, and then you build,

435
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 2: you build around that, and that's what they've done in Washington.

436
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 2: That's why I felt like making that type of prediction

437
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 2: at the beginning of the year because it just felt

438
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 2: like it has such similar qualities of what Houston did

439
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 2: the year prior, and it's spot on. It's spot on,

440
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 2: and they are musty TV. This young man is going

441
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 2: to throw the ball down the field and look, he's

442
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 2: not going to be eighty He's not going to have

443
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 2: an eighty percent completion rate all year. So if that's

444
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 2: your expectation watching them play, then turn the television off

445
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 2: because it's impossible. But what he can do is he

446
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 2: can continue to get better to lead his team, and

447
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 2: we're watching that happen right now and they have a,

448
00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 2: you know, a stranglehold on that division this early into

449
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 2: the year. And I'm excited for.

450
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,880
Speaker 1: Him, no doubt, and it's not just a statistical thing.

451
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: Like I think whoever grabbed Jaden Daniels on their fantasy

452
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:36,440
Speaker 1: team is probably really excited. But today wasn't anything crazy statistically.

453
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 1: He threw for two thirty eighty out a touchdown. He

454
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 1: did throw one interception, which was actually it was a

455
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: great play by a Browns defender down by the goal line,

456
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 1: not a pass that I would call a boneheaded throw

457
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: at all. He ran for eighty two yards. I'm just noticing,

458
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: you know, like when you and you'll you'll relate to

459
00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:00,919
Speaker 1: this if you're a parent, when you have a newborn

460
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 1: or any kid that's like under two. Let's say you

461
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: go away for a week on business. When you come back,

462
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 1: you're like, oh my god, it's a completely different person

463
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:17,360
Speaker 1: because the growth is so rapid. Each week they've got

464
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,880
Speaker 1: new words, or they're able to grab things, or they're

465
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,719
Speaker 1: able to walk or whatever. Like it all happens so fast.

466
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 1: And that's what I feel like when I'm watching Jaden Daniels.

467
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: When you go back to week one, I'm like, oh,

468
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,639
Speaker 1: he's good, but he throws to his running backs and

469
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: his tight ends. He can't get it outside. The numbers

470
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: are down the field, yet five weeks later and Terry

471
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:44,359
Speaker 1: McLaurin is bawling and Jaden is already more mature with

472
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,360
Speaker 1: the way he runs. They've been coaching him hard to

473
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,479
Speaker 1: not take hits. He's been doing a good job of it.

474
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 1: So the poise, the comfort, I don't even really care

475
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 1: about the stats right now. The poise and the comfort

476
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: are so evident when you want and then if you

477
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: haven't seen him, here's how you can tell. Just go

478
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:08,400
Speaker 1: look at the standings, because that's what a team can

479
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 1: look like when they have a quarterback that's making good decisions.

480
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 1: Doesn't even matter if they complete every pass, but when

481
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 1: you're managing the game in addition to having some elite

482
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: physical skills, that's how you win NFL games by three

483
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 1: touchdowns and and and that's what they've been doing the

484
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:25,719
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks.

485
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's amazing to watch. We spend so much

486
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 2: time criticizing young quarterbacks or young our coordinators who put

487
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 2: young quarterbacks in bast situations. I love the short shining

488
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 2: the spotlight on a team and an individual who stepped

489
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 2: into that role and and and has done a miraculous job.

490
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 2: So shout out to him. I don't want to get

491
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 2: too far away from this Jets conversation, okay, because it's

492
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 2: in It's more than an Aaron Rodgers theme, right, And

493
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 2: I like Robert sala I know Robert Sala. He was

494
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 2: a defensive assistant when I was in Houston, So you know,

495
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 2: I know Robert. I'm pulling yeah, Robert.

496
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,920
Speaker 1: No, let's let's let's let hear Let's let's do a

497
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: little bit more of this coming up because I kind

498
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: of came away. It's interesting you came away with this

499
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 1: thought this morning. I felt the exact same way that

500
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: it was headed that way last week with your home

501
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,239
Speaker 1: loss to the Denver Broncos. This one. Look, you were

502
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 1: the underdog, but you're not wrong. Uh, you're not wrong.

503
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 1: And their situation is getting bad fast and and I

504
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 1: don't really know what the long term answer is, so

505
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 1: we can stay right there. Coming up next and then

506
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,239
Speaker 1: also at the top of the hour, I have a

507
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,800

516
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 1: be the back end of red zone radio, but it's

517
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,240
Speaker 1: hard to get in the red zone when you're not

518
00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: even allowed in the stadium. So lightning situation in Pittsburgh

529
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 2: to the station tonebo Mark told me to quit my job.

530
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 1: I was. I was making fun on Friday because my

531
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 1: weekday partner was like, I gotta go to a He's

532
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 1: got a two year old and he's like, we got

533
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 1: to go to a birthday party this weekend. And I said,

534
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,160
Speaker 1: when's the birthday party. And you know how it is

535
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: when they turn two and you invite like the whole class.

536
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 1: So you got to invite the whole class everybody, right,

537
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 1: And these families don't even know each other. You're like,

538
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 1: just because little Bobby and little Benny are at the

539
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 1: same preschool together doesn't mean we're friends. So you don't

540
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: know what kind of family this is. But I can

541
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 1: take a guess what kind of family it is when

542
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: they set a party on the first weekend in October

543
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: at three o'clock on a Sunday, I know what kind

544
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: of family that is. EFN my call that not my

545
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: kind of family. I'm like, you're not going to this party.

Speaker 1: Got to go to this party, man. Then of course

00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: we got off the ear and he's like, I'm not

548
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 1: going to the party. I'm like, of course you're not

549
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:02,280
Speaker 1: going to the party. Come on, man, Like you gotta

550
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,960

00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 1: your audience.

554
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 2: Yeah that's all you're doing the party on Sunday. You

556
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,560

562
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 1: the way it is. Here's dinner, shut up. That's the

563
00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: way I'm doing it.

564
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 2: I got summer birthdays. Everybody in my family was born

565
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 2: in the summer. We can have it on any day.

566
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 2: It's all good.

567
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 1: There you go, there you go, and everybody's out of town,

568
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 1: so no one's coming anyway. It doesn't matter. Right there

569
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: you go, Eddie, all right, let's keep going with the

570
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 1: jet man. So you got you got more to say.

571
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 1: If I do think like they're two and three and

572
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: fair or foul, I do think Robert sala as it

573
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 1: stands in this moment, he's gonna have a hard time

574
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: getting through the end.

575
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 2: Of the year. This is the problem I'm having. When

576
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 2: you're in a and when you're like it was ten

577
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 2: to nothing and you're in you're in your twenty six

578
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 2: yard line and it's fourth and two or whatever. You

579
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 2: went the third and two. You tried to run it,

580
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 2: it didn't work, and so instead of taking the points

581
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:34,440
Speaker 2: in a ten point game in the first quarter, you

582
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 2: elect to go for it and don't get it.

583
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:37,560
Speaker 1: Yep.

584
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 2: To me, those are the mistakes that will get you fired.

585
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 2: Right this whole analytics well, the analytics says, but you

586
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 2: have to understand the team that you have. You have

587
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 2: to understand what points on the board would do for

588
00:32:56,040 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 2: your team when you're down ten to nothing coming off

589
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 2: a week where you couldn't score. That's the issue that

590
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 2: I'm having. I don't care what analytics says. You have

591
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 2: to be able to take the temperature and read the field,

592
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 2: read the room, read the sideline. And when you don't

593
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 2: do that, that's when I start to lose a little

594
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 2: bit of faith. And like I said, I know Robert,

595
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 2: I'm a fan of his, but when you start doing

596
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 2: things like that, when you look at the stats of

597
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 2: this game, they were eerily close. Two hundred and fifty

598
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 2: four total yards, two hundred and fifty three total yards right,

599
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:49,239
Speaker 2: three sacks, four sacks, neither one rushed over rushed fo

600
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:53,880
Speaker 2: one hundred yards. Penalties eight and eleven, separated by you

601
00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 2: know one eight for seventy six, eleven for eighty. So

602
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 2: when you start comparing, you're like, oh, okay, I get it.

603
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 2: I get it. Turnover turnovers, Right, you lose the turnover battle.

604
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 2: But not only is three to two, but not only that,

605
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:19,399
Speaker 2: you give up a pick six. So the thing that

606
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 2: you brought Aaron Rodgers in to do, which was not

607
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:32,319
Speaker 2: be fooled by anything defensively. Right, when you're talking this

608
00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 2: level of elite passer, there's very few things that can

609
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 2: fool you because you've seen it all. And to watch

610
00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers get fooled over and over again and this game,

611
00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 2: that's why I'm like, oh, we have a problem. This

612
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 2: is an issue because if you don't give up the

613
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 2: pick six, you take the three points, you win the game.

614
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 2: And I know if it's a fifth, if I was

615
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,400
Speaker 2: a fifth, we'd all be drunk. But all I'm saying

616
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 2: is the decisions that are being made are now more

617
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 2: glaring than ever. And yes, it's not time to jump

618
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,480
Speaker 2: out to windle there two and three, but this has

619
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 2: cause for alarm for me.

620
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,840
Speaker 1: I agree with you. And here's the thing. It looks

621
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 1: a little less silly, it feels a little less silly.

622
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,760
Speaker 1: You know, Zach Wilson running around and you like couldn't

623
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: see pass rushers that were coming directly at him, not

624
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 1: on his blind side. So like it looks cleaner because

625
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,880
Speaker 1: there's credibility at the quarterback position. But the output is

626
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 1: the exactly the same. Their offense is exactly the same

627
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,959
Speaker 1: as it was last year in terms of its firepower

628
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,440
Speaker 1: and its ability to get up over twenty points in

629
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 1: a football game. It's pretty much the exact same thing.

630
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,480
Speaker 1: We're not done with the AFC East at all. There's

631
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 1: a big question looming over one of the other teams

632
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 1: that's next Sunday Night football is turning into Pac twelve

633
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 1: after dark. We'll find out when this thing actually ends

634
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 1: up happening, and of course keep you up to date.

635
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 1: But the weather rains in more ways than one in

636
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:21,399
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh as of right now, and we're broadcasting live from

637
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: the ti rag dot com studios. Tyrak dot com will

Speaker 1: installers tireraq dot com the way tire buying should be.

641
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 1: I wonder if you've counted this up, do you know

642
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 1: how many teams right now as we sit just right now, snapshot.

643
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:44,720
Speaker 1: How many teams in the AFC have a winning record?

644
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:50,040
Speaker 1: The answer is six. How many teams go to the

645
00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:54,880
Speaker 1: playoffs in the AFC, the answer is more than six.

646
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,359
Speaker 1: So if you're two and three, because by the way,

647
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 1: of those six winning record teams, one of them is

648
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,880
Speaker 1: the Broncos, for God's sakes, So if you're two and three,

649
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: and this is maybe sort of the other side of

650
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 1: the coin of what we were just talking about with

651
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 1: the Jets, are you're fine, You're great, but you're fine.

652
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 1: Everything's okay if you get things going turned around and

653
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:22,759
Speaker 1: in the right direction. And let's take that conversation from

654
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 1: the Jets and run it to one of their division mates.

655
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:32,360
Speaker 1: That Miami Dolphins are playing right now some of the

656
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 1: ugliest football I've ever seen at the NFL level.

657
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 2: Unwatchable.

658
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 1: It's completely unwatchable. And if I'm Tua, I'm out in

659
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,479
Speaker 1: the streets as soon as I'm healthy going. That's why

660
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,719
Speaker 1: you paid me fifty two. Do you still have any

661
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:51,840
Speaker 1: questions about my ability as an NFL quarterback? Am I elite?

662
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 1: Am I one of the top five? Maybe not, but

663
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 1: look at the difference. Look at the difference tyreek Hill

664
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:05,080
Speaker 1: and Jada and Waddle have been rendered insignificant when Tua

665
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: is not there. But my question, man, oh gosh, oh gosh,

666
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: I mean the top of the draft board. If you

667
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 1: do want to take a snapshot of it, think of

668
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: what people were doing. Christian McCaffrey, tyreek Hill, Brece Hall.

669
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:27,239
Speaker 1: Good lord. But anyway, I got this question about the

670
00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins. I brought it up to you two or

671
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:36,640
Speaker 1: three weeks ago, and my curiosity continues. Why have more

672
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 1: phone calls not been made? This is still sitting right

673
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:45,240
Speaker 1: there for you, especially after today you grinded one out,

674
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: you ended up in the wind column. Why are you

675
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:54,280
Speaker 1: not doing more things to find different people to play

676
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 1: quarterback for the Miami Dolphins. Why is this job not

677
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 1: posted on LinkedIn? I don't understand. And a week and

678
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 1: a half ago, it was like snoop unt Ley, way

679
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 1: do you see this? Well, now we have twice What

680
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 1: is happening? Where is Ryan Tannehill? Where is like the

681
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,720
Speaker 1: backup quarterbacks by the way that other teams are trotting

682
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:25,280
Speaker 1: out Andy Dalton and Joe Flacco. Where is the phone

683
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 1: call to the Steelers to beg with like there are

684
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 1: so many questions, so many different things you could do

685
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,879
Speaker 1: here other than what they're doing to get their team

686
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 1: back on track at least until Tour returns, if he returns.

687
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. I never thought, uh, when they signed, or when

688
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 2: people were talking about them, you know, overpaying tool or

689
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 2: something like that, I never thought it was because of

690
00:39:55,160 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 2: his ability. I just thought people were like, Okay, well,

691
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:08,280
Speaker 2: we now do understand that he's has you know, injury

692
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 2: concerns in terms of concussions, right, I mean, the world

693
00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:16,319
Speaker 2: knows that. So for me, it was always like, we know,

694
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 2: when he's healthy and he's playing, he's phenomenal. The numbers

695
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 2: speak for themselves. The proof is in the pudding. But

696
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:28,920
Speaker 2: could he last a whole season? Two, three, ten? To me,

697
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 2: that was you know, that was how I felt about

698
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:42,759
Speaker 2: the contract, the length, the money, Like, could is this

699
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,439
Speaker 2: a good investment? Because if he's on the field, one

700
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 2: thousand percent it is. But if he's unavailable like he

701
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,919
Speaker 2: is now and maybe in the future when he does

702
00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 2: come back from concussion protocol, then now you have a

703
00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 2: very expensive car you can never drive. And so for me,

704
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 2: it was always about his health and not his ability

705
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:20,440
Speaker 2: to throw the ball. We know he can with that,

706
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 2: with that group, with that, with that offense, Mike McDaniels,

707
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 2: those receivers, the running backs, we've seen him put up

708
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:35,880
Speaker 2: Cray numbers, yep. And so for me it was always about,

709
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 2: all right, you know, can he stay healthy? Well, obviously

710
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 2: that question has been answered sooner than we all would

711
00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,919
Speaker 2: have liked it answered. And that's the scary part because

712
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,440
Speaker 2: when you're dealing with concussions, and you're dealing with people

713
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 2: who are more susceptible to concussions than others, other guys

714
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 2: can get banged around and hit their head a hundred

715
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 2: times and not have these c of effects. Remember this

716
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:04,600
Speaker 2: is the same guy two years ago who was like

717
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,960
Speaker 2: he took himself out of the lineup because he was like,

718
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,720
Speaker 2: man I got I had a concussion in the game

719
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 2: last week and didn't know about it until Tuesday. Right,

720
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,759
Speaker 2: this is this is this is real stuff. So he

721
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 2: was at home on a day off and was like, oh,

722
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:30,920
Speaker 2: something's not right. That and the Bengals game and then

723
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 2: the short week Buffalo game and the whole world got

724
00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,320
Speaker 2: to see him seize up like that. That was troubling

725
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 2: to me. It's still troubling to me because here we

726
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:43,799
Speaker 2: are you know, a year? What a year and some

727
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:48,240
Speaker 2: change removed from those images of him on Thursday Night Football.

728
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:53,640
Speaker 2: So that is my biggest concern with the movie forward.

729
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:58,160
Speaker 2: And you're right, they should be ringing the phones, shaking

730
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 2: the trees, whatever they have to do to get a

731
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 2: former starting quarterback, not someone who was the twelfth alternate

732
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:13,320
Speaker 2: in the Pro Bowl. Right to me, that makes sense.

733
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:18,080
Speaker 2: You gotta go find someone. Where is Nick Foles at?

734
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,840
Speaker 1: Well? Right, like, I don't know where Nick Foles? You

735
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 1: know what?

736
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 2: And then somebody and I'm just telling, just being you know, silly,

737
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 2: but you know, Jake Plumber, Like somebody's got Plumber.

738
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 1: Somebody ad campaign with the I don't even know what

739
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,759
Speaker 1: the product is, but the ad campaign with the backup quarterbacks,

740
00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: you know, they're like, you know, I think Josh Dobbs

741
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:46,760
Speaker 1: did one. Yes, Yes, yes, Josh Dobbs did one. Keen

742
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,839
Speaker 1: ke Well, I saw that commercial today and I went,

743
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:54,759
Speaker 1: they're available. Josh Dobbs is available. Hang on, it said, well,

744
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 1: he's the third stringer with the San.

745
00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 2: Francisco is available, third available.

746
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,759
Speaker 1: Remind me where Mike McDaniel came from. I'm sorry, where

747
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 1: was he before the Miami Dolphins. He is a protege

748
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:11,600
Speaker 1: of Kyle Shanahan. If Kyle Shanahan thinks that Josh Dobbs,

749
00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 1: who also worked last year with Kevin O'Connell and won

750
00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 1: football games, same type of offensive system, if that guy

751
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,600
Speaker 1: could be had for a seventh round draft picking, and

752
00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 1: he could, then you can have him. And I'm not

753
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 1: saying that that means now suddenly you're perfect and you're contender,

754
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:34,320
Speaker 1: but you could score I don't know, twenty points rather

755
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,879
Speaker 1: than trying to win games with twelve, and you might,

756
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 1: you might win a few more games. And they know

757
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:46,360
Speaker 1: what we don't know, which is when realistically to what

758
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 1: might be back And if it's if it's not going

759
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 1: to be this year at all, then maybe okay, fine,

760
00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 1: go ahead and lose games and get a draft back

761
00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:01,160
Speaker 1: right the case. But if he's gonna be back week ten,

762
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 1: then go try to win two or three of the

763
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:09,600
Speaker 1: next four and give yourself a realistic spot, because let's

764
00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:12,520
Speaker 1: be real, you ain't gonna play the Patriots every week, no,

765
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:15,240
Speaker 1: and that might be the only team in the NFL

766
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 1: you could beat right now doing what you're doing.

767
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're absolutely right, and look they Mike has connections

768
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 2: all over the league, right, and we don't know if

769
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 2: they've reached out. Are just people just like, no, we're

770
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 2: not gonna do anybody any favors, Like, we don't know

771
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 2: what that is. But to us watching from the outside end,

772
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:43,920
Speaker 2: it just looks like you guys are just okay with

773
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:49,040
Speaker 2: how things are going, and you're in the thick of

774
00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 2: this thing. Nobody, nobody, There are no world beaters out here.

775
00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 2: Even the best team in the league in Kansas City

776
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:04,359
Speaker 2: looks like they're on life support and the season just started, right,

777
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:07,879
Speaker 2: no one is going out in dominating.

778
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 1: It is crazy. You're you're absolutely right. Like if I

779
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:14,760
Speaker 1: just said, hey, when you turn on the TV on Sunday,

780
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 1: who looks amazing? Who looks amazing? I would argue, no one.

781
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:25,080
Speaker 2: And and and to your point, this is a prime

782
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:27,880
Speaker 2: their schedule, isn't that difficult?

783
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,959
Speaker 1: No? No, I mean, even look at what they.

784
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:35,840
Speaker 2: Got the Colts, Arizona, the Bills. That's rivalry, right, that's division.

785
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:39,080
Speaker 2: They got, the Rams, they got the Raiders and the

786
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:44,160
Speaker 2: pat This you gotta seize this moment, dude.

787
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,279
Speaker 1: They've got in theory, because they've also now get a

788
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:51,360
Speaker 1: bye next week. In theory, they've got one game between

789
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:57,000
Speaker 1: now and Thanksgiving that like looks really hard on paper.

790
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 1: And if you did have just someone sort of kind

791
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 1: of capable, let's keep playing with Josh Dobbs. If you

792
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:10,000
Speaker 1: add Josh Dobbs, I got one hundred bucks says you

793
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,320
Speaker 1: can go three and three in those next six games,

794
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 1: and you can then be five and six on Thanksgiving

795
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 1: night when you go to lambeau Field. And I think

796
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 1: that there's a very fair chance that two a tongue

797
00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 1: of I low is playing that game, because that's week thirteen.

798
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:29,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're not going to be able to roll out

799
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 2: with Hunt Lee. And I mean unless you, like you said,

800
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 2: unless they're like, okay, we're just playing for two is

801
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:41,919
Speaker 2: not going to be back. We need a draft pick.

802
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 2: We need one of these young quarterbacks Shador, We need

803
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 2: beck right, one of these projected first round draft picks

804
00:47:56,960 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 2: coming out out of college. So we're not going to

805
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:04,440
Speaker 2: middle around.

806
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:05,080
Speaker 1: Now.

807
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 2: I don't see you doing that with the amount of

808
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:11,880
Speaker 2: money you just invested right into it. I don't see

809
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:15,960
Speaker 2: that being fiscally responsible.

810
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,959
Speaker 1: No, you use the draft pick on a different position.

811
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:24,040
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, so it just it bodes for them to

812
00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 2: go out and try to find someone who started, who's

813
00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:33,440
Speaker 2: won games at a high enough clip to where they

814
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,359
Speaker 2: can take advantage of the talent that you have offensively.

815
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,960
Speaker 1: Coming up next, I have a question about the position

816
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:47,520
Speaker 1: we almost never talk about, and I am genuinely curious

817
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:51,720
Speaker 1: how you one of the people who used to bang

818
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:56,080
Speaker 1: a helmet against somebody else on every play. I'm genuinely

819
00:48:56,160 --> 00:49:00,400
Speaker 1: curious how you will answer not only this question but

820
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 1: the opinion that I have about this position in this moment.

821
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 1: So well, you're going to do that. Coming up next,

822
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,960
Speaker 1: it's Week five with EA from Salama Mark Wheler. This

823
00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:13,280
Speaker 1: is Fox Sports Radio. Okay, we do got a little

824
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:18,040
Speaker 1: something for you here, ty rag dot com Studios. Twenty

825
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:24,000
Speaker 1: five minutes from now. That's the plan. We'll see if

826
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:28,920
Speaker 1: mother nature cooperates. But the plan right now for Sunday

827
00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 1: night football between the Steelers and the Cowboys is going

828
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:39,040
Speaker 1: to be twenty we'll call it twenty three minutes from

829
00:49:39,120 --> 00:49:41,840
Speaker 1: right now, which is probably going to put the end

830
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: of the game somewhere in the neighborhood at one in

831
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:50,680
Speaker 1: the morning Eastern time. Like I said, they call the

832
00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 1: boss and call the schools too, and see if you

833
00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 1: can just make tomorrow minimum day you are, especially if

834
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 1: you're all the way in the east there with the Steelers.

835
00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:09,480
Speaker 1: Mark Willardy from Salam Okay, I really do want your

836
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:15,839
Speaker 1: genuine reaction here, because I know the football players look

837
00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:20,920
Speaker 1: at the kickers as a sort of alternate version of

838
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:21,400
Speaker 1: a human.

839
00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 7: Is that correct? It's right, It's close to that. Yeah,

840
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:29,480
Speaker 7: come on, right, Like, I know you guys are out there.

841
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:32,240
Speaker 7: I've watched it. You're practicing, you're sweating.

842
00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:39,480
Speaker 1: You're right, especial training camp, right, you're going crazy, and

843
00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,759
Speaker 1: they're practicing their golf swing. I get it. I get it.

844
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 1: And then you get out into the game and you

845
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:48,320
Speaker 1: guys go at it for a full hour and everything

846
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:53,120
Speaker 1: is difficult and painful and awful, and then we trot

847
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 1: this little guy out to the field to figure out

848
00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,680
Speaker 1: who won the game. So not your favorite And I

849
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:03,359
Speaker 1: get it. And so sometimes we take that to mean

850
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 1: the other players love it when the kickers are forced

851
00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,480
Speaker 1: into a situation where for once they've got to stick

852
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 1: their head in there and they're willing to do it.

853
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:18,080
Speaker 1: Makes them feel like a member of the team. Right,

854
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:26,399
Speaker 1: allow this alternate thought. Don't do it, don't ever do it.

855
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:32,080
Speaker 1: Don't go in there. You don't belong in there. Nothing

856
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:34,680
Speaker 1: good is going to happen. If you go in there.

857
00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:39,880
Speaker 1: Once in a while, you might actually make a game

858
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:43,920
Speaker 1: saving tackle, but that's a once in a decade occurrence.

859
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:46,920
Speaker 1: What's much more likely if you look around the league

860
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:51,319
Speaker 1: is something is going to snap or tear, and your

861
00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:54,399
Speaker 1: team now needs to go find someone else who does

862
00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:57,319
Speaker 1: what you do, and they may find someone who does

863
00:51:57,360 --> 00:52:00,719
Speaker 1: what you do really well for much cheap, and you

864
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 1: may never have your job back again. So first, before

865
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:08,920
Speaker 1: I explain the details of what I'm getting at, your

866
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:12,640
Speaker 1: thoughts on a kicker, whether it be a kickoff or

867
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:17,520
Speaker 1: a punt, really sticking his neck in there, like into traffic,

868
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:19,279
Speaker 1: into all that's going on.

869
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:30,120
Speaker 2: That's not your job. It's not your job. There are

870
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,840
Speaker 2: ten other people on that field to do that job.

871
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,520
Speaker 2: Now you can get in the way, you can make

872
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:43,320
Speaker 2: them change directions. Number One, you don't know how to tackle,

873
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:48,879
Speaker 2: you don't know how to hit. Pretty sure, you've never

874
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:56,080
Speaker 2: played another position outside of kicking, so you wouldn't even

875
00:52:56,160 --> 00:53:00,279
Speaker 2: train like everybody else. You didn't grow up with the

876
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:07,279
Speaker 2: Oklahoma drill. You didn't do nine on seven. Are a

877
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:12,720
Speaker 2: host of other team drills, So just do your job,

878
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 2: and when you do others people's job, you get hurt.

879
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:28,320
Speaker 2: And what happens is when you lose your place kicker,

880
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:38,839
Speaker 2: it changes the whole dynamic of the game yep by

881
00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:39,360
Speaker 2: a mile.

882
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:44,839
Speaker 1: So all of this this particular week is inspired by

883
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers kicker Jake Moody, who, on a kickoff

884
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:53,759
Speaker 1: decided to not only attempt to tackle DJ Dallas, he

885
00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:57,439
Speaker 1: attempted to tackle DJ Dallas at about the thirty five

886
00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:01,400
Speaker 1: yard line with other forty nine Er defenders, as you mentioned, Ephraim,

887
00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:05,279
Speaker 1: people paid to do that, literally still right behind him.

888
00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:08,040
Speaker 1: This was not a game saving tackle. This was not

889
00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 1: going to be a kick return for a touchdown. This

890
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:15,640
Speaker 1: was Jake deciding, you know what, it's machismo time, and

891
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:17,719
Speaker 1: I'm not only going to go in there. I'm gonna

892
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: lead with my hat. Let's do it. Let's see what

893
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:25,280
Speaker 1: this is all about. Let's lead with the hat. Well,

894
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:29,200
Speaker 1: Jake got squashed in such a way because he took

895
00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:32,799
Speaker 1: DJ Dallas's shoulder straight to the head to where his

896
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 1: body literally did some sort of an accordion move which

897
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:39,120
Speaker 1: led to a high ankle sprain on his right side.

898
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:42,880
Speaker 1: That's his kicking leg almost broke his leg. I'm surprised

899
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 1: that thing didn't snap in half. If you watch the play,

900
00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:49,800
Speaker 1: don't go in there. You're now out for a few weeks,

901
00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:54,279
Speaker 1: and the forty nine ers will audition new kickers, and

902
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,000
Speaker 1: who knows where that's all going to go, but you're

903
00:54:57,040 --> 00:55:00,640
Speaker 1: out for at least a few weeks. And the way,

904
00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,800
Speaker 1: it'll be the thing that'll get tucked kind of under

905
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:06,759
Speaker 1: the surface of the forty nine Ers losing to the

906
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:09,920
Speaker 1: Cardinals today by one point. There were a lot of

907
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:16,360
Speaker 1: things that led to it defensively, offensively, penalties, turnovers, special teams,

908
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 1: lots of weird things. But I want to highlight something

909
00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:22,880
Speaker 1: that happened early in the second half when the forty

910
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:26,040
Speaker 1: nine ers had some penalties in a sack and they

911
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:29,000
Speaker 1: ended up with a fourth and twenty three from just

912
00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:33,120
Speaker 1: outside the opponent's twenty five yard line. That is known

913
00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:36,080
Speaker 1: as a rather easy field goal.

914
00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:38,560
Speaker 2: It's called a chip shot, that is.

915
00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:43,280
Speaker 1: A north of seventy five percent chance at three points

916
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,480
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. The Niners decided to go

917
00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:49,640
Speaker 1: for it because they had no kicker and really all

918
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,280
Speaker 1: they were trying to do was maybe chunk off about

919
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,839
Speaker 1: fifteen yards to play the field position game. They didn't

920
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:58,000
Speaker 1: even attempt to get it because the Cardinals just sat

921
00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:00,480
Speaker 1: back and waited at the line to gain nothing you

922
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:03,120
Speaker 1: could do, but they had no one who could try

923
00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 1: a field goal of that distance, so they just went

924
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:13,480
Speaker 1: for it and lost by one point. There you have it.

925
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 1: Don't go in there.

926
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:20,360
Speaker 2: Not your job, man, especially in this new kickoff format.

927
00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:29,520
Speaker 2: This is not what we're doing. And it's so crazy

928
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:33,400
Speaker 2: when when terrible things happen, you're like, man, if I

929
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:37,280
Speaker 2: would have just right, I had no business being over here.

930
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:44,320
Speaker 2: I knew I should have came over here. But sometimes

931
00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:48,719
Speaker 2: that impulse to do more, to be more, kicks in

932
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:51,759
Speaker 2: and you put yourself in. Not only yourself, but you

933
00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:56,640
Speaker 2: don't have a backup. That's the difference. It's the only

934
00:56:56,760 --> 00:57:02,480
Speaker 2: position that doesn't have a backup on the entire field.

935
00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:06,920
Speaker 2: Think about that. It's the only position that doesn't have

936
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:16,040
Speaker 2: a backup. That's how valuable you are. That's why no

937
00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:17,000
Speaker 2: one talks to you.

938
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:19,680
Speaker 1: Think about it.

939
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:27,760
Speaker 2: When you're a team is driving down the field in

940
00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:31,360
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter to tie the game up or to

941
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:35,480
Speaker 2: win by one or two points, how many people do

942
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:39,360
Speaker 2: you see crowded around the kicker who's behind the bench

943
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 2: with his ball and his net. How many people do

944
00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:46,919
Speaker 2: you see over there pumping him up, are telling him

945
00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,479
Speaker 2: he got this, or he's gonna do this, and he's

946
00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:55,000
Speaker 2: gonna do that. How many people do you see doing that? None?

947
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:58,439
Speaker 1: None. Yeah, a kicker is treated every day like he's

948
00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:00,840
Speaker 1: a pitcher that's taking a no hit into the eighth inning.

949
00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:11,080
Speaker 2: Don't even look over there. So with that knowledge, don't

950
00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:16,320
Speaker 2: run up Darren. Especially the new kickoff format. Oh my gosh, bruh.

951
00:58:16,400 --> 00:58:20,360
Speaker 2: You should never pass someone to go make a tackle.

952
00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:29,400
Speaker 2: There is no one left. He was my kicker in

953
00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 2: fantasy football too.

954
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:35,200
Speaker 1: Say yeah, yeah, yeah, mine too too. I mean a.

955
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 2: Got me a cup lord?

956
00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:42,360
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah.

957
00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:43,920
Speaker 2: Do you know who I bet? You know who I

958
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:44,760
Speaker 2: bet who can kick?

959
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 1: And I know he would stick his head in there

960
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,480
Speaker 1: when he needed to also, and he would be welcome

961
00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:49,840
Speaker 1: to do so.

962
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:52,680
Speaker 2: He not only would he be able to kick, he'd

963
00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:56,439
Speaker 2: be able to tackle punt the whole nine yards. That's

964
00:58:56,520 --> 00:59:04,560
Speaker 2: our own Swiss army knife. Steven S K di Seger.

965
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:08,200
Speaker 4: I'm not stupid. I wouldn't do what I saw if

966
00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:10,040
Speaker 4: it's just kind of by the way.

967
00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:13,120
Speaker 3: The good news for the NFL game Dallas at Pittsburgh tonight.

968
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:17,080
Speaker 3: Players are on the field. People, it has stopped raining.

969
00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:19,480
Speaker 3: They're done with the lightning storm. It's not due to

970
00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 3: rain the rest of the night. And the problem wasn't

971
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,600
Speaker 3: the rain and the little hail they got as well,

972
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:27,600
Speaker 3: it was the lightning. Fans are back in the stands again,

973
00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:30,520
Speaker 3: players on the field, and they're due to kick off

974
00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:33,720
Speaker 3: in about fifteen minutes after this long weather delay.

975
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:37,480
Speaker 1: Tonight, if only the Chargers were playing, I would like

976
00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:41,959
Speaker 1: unload every dollar I had on the Chargers because it'd

977
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:44,600
Speaker 1: be like God is speaking to us right now.

978
00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:50,760
Speaker 3: But it's because of lightning bolts and lightning bolts Pittsburgh.

979
00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,000
Speaker 3: You know what I thought with such a lightning I

980
00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:55,400
Speaker 3: thought Brady Quinn was in the stadium, because it seems

981
00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:57,920
Speaker 3: every other Fox game he's done the last five years,

982
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 3: if there's a lightning day, he's delay. He's involved the

983
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 3: Steelers this year, allowing just thirteen points a game. So

984
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,680
Speaker 3: we'll see when we actually get a game going what

985
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:11,520
Speaker 3: it'll be like, especially after this long delay. Pittsburgh is

986
01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:14,960
Speaker 3: three and one, Dallas two and two again, about fifteen

987
01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:17,480
Speaker 3: minutes away from kick Arizona on a field goal at

988
01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:19,920
Speaker 3: San Francisco with about a minute and a half left

989
01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:21,840
Speaker 3: won the game twenty four to twenty three, and that

990
01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:24,919
Speaker 3: kick was by Chad Ryland, a thirty five yarder. Matt

991
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 3: Prater of Arizona was out with a sore knee. The

992
01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:30,360
Speaker 3: Giants won at Seattle twenty nine to twenty. Giants, with

993
01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:33,120
Speaker 3: one minute left blocked a field goal and returned it

994
01:00:33,160 --> 01:00:36,000
Speaker 3: for a touchdown. Green Bay won at the Rams twenty

995
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:38,960
Speaker 3: four to nineteen. Jordan Love two touchdown passes in the

996
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:42,160
Speaker 3: third quarter, both to tight end Tucker Kraft. And at Denver,

997
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 3: the Broncos have won three in a row. They trailed

998
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:47,080
Speaker 3: ten to nothing to the Raiders after the first quarter.

999
01:00:47,120 --> 01:00:49,640
Speaker 3: In fact, Denver had lost eight straight to the Raiders

1000
01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:52,160
Speaker 3: head to head. They came back for a win thirty

1001
01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:56,400
Speaker 3: four eighteen Todays, the Raiders threw three interceptions. SUPERB game

1002
01:00:56,400 --> 01:01:00,120
Speaker 3: at Cincinnati, Baltimore wins in overtime forty one thirty eight.

1003
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:03,840
Speaker 3: Despite Joe Burrow's five touchdown passes, he had one interception.

1004
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:07,120
Speaker 3: Burrow was thirty of thirty nine through the air three

1005
01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:10,280
Speaker 3: hundred and ninety two yards, and yet the Bengals are

1006
01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:13,080
Speaker 3: oh and three at home Houston won on a fifty

1007
01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 3: nine yard field goal on the final play twenty three

1008
01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:18,840
Speaker 3: to twenty over Buffalo at Jacksonville, and the Jags were

1009
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:22,080
Speaker 3: zh to four. A win for the Jacksonville Jaguars on

1010
01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:24,800
Speaker 3: a forty nine yard field goal with under twenty seconds left,

1011
01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:28,680
Speaker 3: thirty seven to thirty four over Indianapolis Chicago at home.

1012
01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:31,680
Speaker 3: Three and o this year, after beating Carolina thirty six

1013
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:34,919
Speaker 3: to ten. By the way, it's Jaguars Bears next week

1014
01:01:34,920 --> 01:01:37,960
Speaker 3: in London. Today in London, Minnesota went to five and oh,

1015
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:41,480
Speaker 3: beating the Jets twenty three seventeen. Miami a fifteen to

1016
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:45,440
Speaker 3: ten winner at New England Washington over Cleveland thirty four

1017
01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:48,000
Speaker 3: to thirteen. If you haven't seen a Browns game, you

1018
01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:51,280
Speaker 3: haven't missed much. Browns with just three first downs in

1019
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:55,040
Speaker 3: the first half today. In every game so far this year,

1020
01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:58,120
Speaker 3: the Browns have been held under twenty points and under

1021
01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:01,160
Speaker 3: three hundred yards. They weren't even within sniffing distance of

1022
01:02:01,160 --> 01:02:04,160
Speaker 3: three hundred yards in this one. Today, Texas Longhorns back

1023
01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:06,600
Speaker 3: to number one in the new AP College Football Poll.

1024
01:02:06,800 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 3: A NASCAR victory for Ricky Stenhouse at Talladega. Brad Keslowski

1025
01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:13,800
Speaker 3: finished a close second in the WNBA playoffs best of

1026
01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:17,880
Speaker 3: five semifinals. Connecticut still alive after winning over Minnesota, New

1027
01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:21,760
Speaker 3: York eliminated Las Vegas. The Celtics took another exhibition against

1028
01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:24,560
Speaker 3: the Nuggets in Abu Dhabi, won thirty to one oh four,

1029
01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:28,560
Speaker 3: although Denver's Nikola Jokic had twenty points in nineteen minutes.

1030
01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:31,240
Speaker 3: As far as the baseball playoffs, the two American League

1031
01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 3: Division series continue tomorrow, Detroit at Cleveland, then Kansas City

1032
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:39,880
Speaker 3: at the Yankees. The Mets played another thriller today, but Philadelphia,

1033
01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:41,480
Speaker 3: with a run in the bottom of the ninth, beat

1034
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:42,680
Speaker 3: the Mets seven to six.

1035
01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:43,520
Speaker 4: The Mets had just.

1036
01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:45,120
Speaker 3: Tied at top of the ninth on a two run

1037
01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:48,320
Speaker 3: homer and on FS one as well. Right now, it's

1038
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:51,360
Speaker 3: the Padres leading the Dodgers in LA three to one

1039
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:53,840
Speaker 3: in the top of the sixth inning and two men

1040
01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:58,120
Speaker 3: on with nobody out for San Diego, the uh, well,

1041
01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:00,480
Speaker 3: let's just say good news in a game that you're

1042
01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:03,600
Speaker 3: losing at home is that the starter is still actually

1043
01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 3: in the game. For Los Angeles. By the time Jack

1044
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:10,280
Speaker 3: Flaherty had completed four innings, that already was the longest

1045
01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:14,280
Speaker 3: postseason start by a Dodger pitcher in two years. Whoa,

1046
01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:15,760
Speaker 3: that's how bad things have been.

1047
01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:21,080
Speaker 1: Oh my, oh my gosh, say that again.

1048
01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:25,240
Speaker 3: They had not had a starting pitcher go four innings

1049
01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:27,800
Speaker 3: in any playoff game in two years.

1050
01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,760
Speaker 2: And like the amount of money.

1051
01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:37,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, every year they do every year.

1052
01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:41,720
Speaker 3: And the Dodgers currently have seven starting pitchers on the

1053
01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:45,960
Speaker 3: injured list. It's a four man rotation in the playoffs.

1054
01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 3: They have seven out.

1055
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:51,080
Speaker 1: They've been trying to make tackles on kickoffs too, good, Lord,

1056
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:52,480
Speaker 1: stop doing that.

1057
01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:54,960
Speaker 2: They're just trying to hit everybody.

1058
01:03:54,760 --> 01:04:01,600
Speaker 1: Right well, and they often do, they often. But yeah,

1059
01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:04,120
Speaker 1: we'll keep tabs on that one too. Three to one.

1060
01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:08,160
Speaker 1: Padres threatening for more in game two of that series.

1061
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:11,000
Speaker 1: Tyreck dot com Studios. Thank you, Steve. It's Mark Willard,

1062
01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:16,160
Speaker 1: Thanks Steve from salam Hey. Following that kicker thing, is

1063
01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:21,120
Speaker 1: this the emotional response of a forty nine er fan

1064
01:04:21,360 --> 01:04:24,680
Speaker 1: to say that, I think, surprisingly the NFC West might

1065
01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:28,560
Speaker 1: be the worst division in football? No, no, no, no, no, no,

1066
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:32,160
Speaker 1: might go with me there, like right, and like again,

1067
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:38,360
Speaker 1: Seattle's three and two? But what what at home? To

1068
01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:44,600
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones that like, what what's happening? That division was

1069
01:04:44,640 --> 01:04:48,960
Speaker 1: supposed to be one of the better divisions in football,

1070
01:04:49,640 --> 01:04:55,240
Speaker 1: and like, yeah, it's not good. Nobody's good.

1071
01:04:56,720 --> 01:05:06,520
Speaker 2: No, it's it's it's weird. It's like it's like a

1072
01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:10,360
Speaker 2: a you ever seen that show them. It's like a

1073
01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:16,960
Speaker 2: Twilight Zone episode. Yeah, where things seem to be a

1074
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:21,280
Speaker 2: certain way. It's like I remember them being this, and

1075
01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:23,920
Speaker 2: then in reality it's not at all.

1076
01:05:24,160 --> 01:05:27,280
Speaker 1: Okay, right, I mean, like black Mirry, let's go there

1077
01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:28,960
Speaker 1: for a second though, because I know you have the

1078
01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:31,480
Speaker 1: utmost respect for so many things that are going on

1079
01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:34,080
Speaker 1: with the forty nine ers. Just spotlight them because they're

1080
01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:37,520
Speaker 1: supposed to be the ones and they're two and three

1081
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:43,360
Speaker 1: and two of their losses have been absolute, just like

1082
01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:49,680
Speaker 1: comical collapses, to where you're watching what's happening and you're like,

1083
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:54,920
Speaker 1: there's no way that those eight things all just happened

1084
01:05:55,240 --> 01:05:59,040
Speaker 1: in ten minutes. It's hard to do, right, and it's

1085
01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:01,440
Speaker 1: so there's no way to look at it and go well,

1086
01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:04,800
Speaker 1: at least in my opinion, it's the coach, it's the quarterback,

1087
01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:08,240
Speaker 1: it's the kicker, it's the defense, it's the offense. It's

1088
01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:13,280
Speaker 1: an unbelievable series of events. This is what happened against

1089
01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:16,000
Speaker 1: the Rams two weeks ago. It happened with the Cardinals today.

1090
01:06:17,120 --> 01:06:19,800
Speaker 1: You know, from Moody getting hurt, changing the whole thing.

1091
01:06:19,880 --> 01:06:23,960
Speaker 1: The defense can't stop James Connor, Jordan Mason fumbles as

1092
01:06:23,960 --> 01:06:26,200
Speaker 1: the Niners were kind of like going in to end

1093
01:06:26,280 --> 01:06:30,760
Speaker 1: the game. It's just it's a constant flow. It's like

1094
01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:33,920
Speaker 1: hitting two weeks ago. I likened it to hitting a

1095
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:38,360
Speaker 1: seven pick parlay. It's like, we're gonna need these wild

1096
01:06:38,720 --> 01:06:41,840
Speaker 1: seven things to all happen in the next ten minutes,

1097
01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:44,800
Speaker 1: and then they do. Who's that on?

1098
01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's They've lost three games by a total

1099
01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:52,960
Speaker 2: of ten points. Well, right, and two of them though,

1100
01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:57,280
Speaker 2: like if it happened right, so.

1101
01:06:57,320 --> 01:06:59,600
Speaker 1: Double digit leads fourth quarter of the whole deal.

1102
01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:05,920
Speaker 2: So when teams good teams, things like that happen, I

1103
01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:13,600
Speaker 2: don't panic. I don't panic because it just takes an adjustment.

1104
01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:18,760
Speaker 2: It just takes tapping into attention from detail. Now, so

1105
01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:21,960
Speaker 2: let me explain to you how the Niners are feeling

1106
01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:26,320
Speaker 2: right now. They've been the standard in the NFC for

1107
01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:33,480
Speaker 2: close to five years, and so what has the regular

1108
01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:38,000
Speaker 2: season meant to the forty nine ers? Nothing?

1109
01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:41,200
Speaker 1: Less, less and less.

1110
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:44,360
Speaker 2: Every single year less and less. When you watch the show,

1111
01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:47,040
Speaker 2: we talk about all the time receiver and you hear

1112
01:07:47,120 --> 01:07:54,560
Speaker 2: de Bow and you hear Carrie, not Carrie Kittle Kittle

1113
01:07:55,640 --> 01:08:02,240
Speaker 2: talk about what getting back to the super Bowl means.

1114
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:09,320
Speaker 2: There is a natural regular season hangover because you know

1115
01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:17,640
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. There's a natural lack of attention to

1116
01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:22,000
Speaker 2: detail when you continue to repeat it over and over again.

1117
01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:30,920
Speaker 2: You know, games in September October don't dictate what's gonna happen.

1118
01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:35,479
Speaker 2: You've been ten in oh and nine, in oh and seven,

1119
01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:40,439
Speaker 2: and oh you've been ten and three at one point,

1120
01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:45,759
Speaker 2: like so it the fatigue is that because they haven't

1121
01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 2: had the payoff. So it becomes a grind. Oh my god,

1122
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:54,240
Speaker 2: we gotta go through this just to get back to

1123
01:08:54,320 --> 01:08:56,880
Speaker 2: the only thing we want to do, and that's to

1124
01:08:56,920 --> 01:08:59,719
Speaker 2: play in the Super Bowl and win. So you lose

1125
01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:04,000
Speaker 2: fourcus and you the attention to detail slips a little.

1126
01:09:04,120 --> 01:09:07,360
Speaker 2: And it's just not players. It happens with the coaching

1127
01:09:07,400 --> 01:09:11,640
Speaker 2: staff and ownership as well. You know your team is

1128
01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:15,519
Speaker 2: good enough to compete with everybody. When you get to

1129
01:09:15,600 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 2: the postseason. There's a long way from the postseason. Whether

1130
01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:24,920
Speaker 2: you limp in or you have a first round. By

1131
01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:30,080
Speaker 2: the results are the results, and I think that's what

1132
01:09:30,120 --> 01:09:36,200
Speaker 2: you're seeing from them. On the flip side of that,

1133
01:09:36,280 --> 01:09:41,280
Speaker 2: you look at the AFC standard and that's Kansas City, right.

1134
01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:45,080
Speaker 1: They've looked awful so completely.

1135
01:09:45,800 --> 01:09:49,400
Speaker 2: They're five and zero, but they are easily one call,

1136
01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:58,840
Speaker 2: two plays away from being two and two, one and two,

1137
01:09:59,000 --> 01:09:59,599
Speaker 2: one and three.

1138
01:10:00,240 --> 01:10:00,479
Speaker 1: Yep.

1139
01:10:01,560 --> 01:10:06,320
Speaker 2: And so it's just because Andy Reid and that staff

1140
01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:13,639
Speaker 2: and Patrick Mahomes are able to eliminate in the very

1141
01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:21,599
Speaker 2: last moment what would normally be an unforgettable game are

1142
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:25,320
Speaker 2: a forgettable game. Excuse me. That's the difference. So when

1143
01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:29,240
Speaker 2: you talk about the Niners, the talent level and all

1144
01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:34,960
Speaker 2: of that, it doesn't bother me because they're literally just

1145
01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:38,840
Speaker 2: biting time. It's not like the NFC is full of

1146
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:44,879
Speaker 2: world beaters. It's not like, oh, no, we've dug ourself

1147
01:10:44,960 --> 01:10:45,360
Speaker 2: a hole.

1148
01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:48,719
Speaker 1: No, you want to hear the craziest thing of all

1149
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:53,599
Speaker 1: they play in four days. If they beat Seattle, they're

1150
01:10:53,640 --> 01:10:55,000
Speaker 1: in first places.

1151
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:59,360
Speaker 2: And that's where they are right now. Mentally, it's so

1152
01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:02,920
Speaker 2: hard to get up for the fight over and all

1153
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:05,920
Speaker 2: you want to do is go to the twelfth round.

1154
01:11:07,160 --> 01:11:09,719
Speaker 2: You mean, oh my god, I gotta fight eleven rounds

1155
01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:12,320
Speaker 2: just to get to the twelfth round. So you start

1156
01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:19,000
Speaker 2: taking punches you wouldn't normally take. You may lose two, three,

1157
01:11:19,160 --> 01:11:24,840
Speaker 2: four rounds, knowing our knockout powers in the twelfth round

1158
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:27,760
Speaker 2: are the eleventh round going into the twelfth round. You

1159
01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:30,439
Speaker 2: show up for the eleventh round and you got to

1160
01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:32,719
Speaker 2: try to figure out a way to win the twelfth

1161
01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:36,680
Speaker 2: And that's where they are right now. So I would say, hey, man,

1162
01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:40,639
Speaker 2: don't panic, don't sell your stock, don't jump out the window.

1163
01:11:41,560 --> 01:11:48,200
Speaker 2: Just know that it's this is the fatigue, this is

1164
01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 2: the grind. That was very telling having them talk about

1165
01:11:53,600 --> 01:11:56,760
Speaker 2: getting back to the super Bowl the beginning of last year,

1166
01:11:57,240 --> 01:12:00,360
Speaker 2: how everyone was focused on that they did it and

1167
01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:01,439
Speaker 2: they still lost.

1168
01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:05,880
Speaker 1: Yeah it's too soon, Yeah yeah, Okay, more on that

1169
01:12:05,920 --> 01:12:08,320
Speaker 1: coming up. Plus, is there a team that has now

1170
01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:11,920
Speaker 1: shown that their backup quarterback is better than their starter

1171
01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:14,160
Speaker 1: even though he didn't win today, we'll tell you who

1172
01:12:14,160 --> 01:12:17,120
Speaker 1: we're talking about coming up next on Fox Sports Radio.

1173
01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:22,040
Speaker 1: Okay with e from salam Mark Whillard. These aretheti rag

1174
01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:24,360
Speaker 1: dot com studios. I want to get this off real quick.

1175
01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:27,479
Speaker 1: What do you think I mean? Is it obvious to

1176
01:12:27,520 --> 01:12:31,479
Speaker 1: you that Joe Flacco is better than Anthony Richardson.

1177
01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:35,280
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, of course, yeah.

1178
01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:39,559
Speaker 1: And I mean I get the part of that that's

1179
01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:42,599
Speaker 1: not fair because Anthony is still I'm trying to think,

1180
01:12:42,640 --> 01:12:44,639
Speaker 1: what did he start last year? Five games?

1181
01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:45,400
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1182
01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:47,919
Speaker 1: This year four? Like, he hasn't even start ten football

1183
01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:52,759
Speaker 1: games in his career. So and Joe Flacco has started

1184
01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:57,320
Speaker 1: twelve hundred I think. So, Like, I get it, that's

1185
01:12:57,360 --> 01:13:00,280
Speaker 1: not fair. But what do you do in a situation

1186
01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:07,120
Speaker 1: like this where the locker room knows you have to

1187
01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:10,160
Speaker 1: play Anthony Richardson, but the locker room knows he's not

1188
01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:11,760
Speaker 1: the one who gives you the best chance to win

1189
01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:12,519
Speaker 1: in score points?

1190
01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:25,360
Speaker 2: You you don't play him until he's ready. And it

1191
01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:32,519
Speaker 2: depends on what your season goals are. If your season

1192
01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:37,680
Speaker 2: goals are to make it to the playoffs, then you

1193
01:13:37,680 --> 01:13:43,840
Speaker 2: don't play them. If your season goals are to develop him,

1194
01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:45,920
Speaker 2: then you put him in and you develop. The only

1195
01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:50,280
Speaker 2: way he's going to develop at this stage is to

1196
01:13:50,840 --> 01:13:57,200
Speaker 2: play him. And so it comes down to a question

1197
01:13:57,280 --> 01:14:00,920
Speaker 2: of are you competing for a divisional title? Are are

1198
01:14:00,920 --> 01:14:03,040
Speaker 2: you trying to find out if he can play quarterback?

1199
01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:07,160
Speaker 2: Does that make sense?

1200
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:10,599
Speaker 1: It sure does I mean they're two and three the Colts.

1201
01:14:10,640 --> 01:14:14,479
Speaker 1: It's different than the Panthers. You know, the Panthers made

1202
01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:16,760
Speaker 1: this move to Andy Dalton. I still don't think they're

1203
01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:19,240
Speaker 1: gonna win a lot of games. They're certainly more viable,

1204
01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:22,600
Speaker 1: though they give you a better game, they're much more watchable.

1205
01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:26,639
Speaker 1: Here are the Indianapolis Colts. The Texans are four and one.

1206
01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:30,240
Speaker 1: The Colts are now two and three, so there are

1207
01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:32,719
Speaker 1: two games back. But I also, as I mentioned, already

1208
01:14:32,760 --> 01:14:35,360
Speaker 1: two and three is still totally in the thick of

1209
01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:40,040
Speaker 1: the playoff chase. I mean, I don't think the Colts

1210
01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:42,879
Speaker 1: are in tank mode by any stretch.

1211
01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:48,800
Speaker 2: No, I don't believe so either. But you do have

1212
01:14:48,880 --> 01:14:52,559
Speaker 2: to figure out if he can play quarterback. So if

1213
01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:55,800
Speaker 2: that is your priority, then he The only way you're

1214
01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:58,680
Speaker 2: going to figure that out is if he plays, So

1215
01:14:58,840 --> 01:15:07,080
Speaker 2: you have to make a decision. That's the reality of it.

1216
01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:12,640
Speaker 1: We talked about it last week when Joe Flacco came in,

1217
01:15:12,920 --> 01:15:15,639
Speaker 1: and it's kind of a crazy story. I don't know why.

1218
01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:18,439
Speaker 1: It's all just so believable that Joe Flacco now can

1219
01:15:18,479 --> 01:15:21,599
Speaker 1: go team to team and he keeps getting thrown in there,

1220
01:15:21,680 --> 01:15:25,240
Speaker 1: and then all of the sudden boom, all the receivers pop,

1221
01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:28,439
Speaker 1: the whole offense pops. You know, they lost today, but

1222
01:15:28,479 --> 01:15:33,000
Speaker 1: they scored over thirty points and so I don't know, man.

1223
01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:37,320
Speaker 1: You know, if Richardson comes back and doesn't play well,

1224
01:15:37,360 --> 01:15:39,360
Speaker 1: it feels like the leash has to be pretty short.

1225
01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:43,439
Speaker 1: All right? Coming up next, Edgar Allan Poe is going

1226

Speaker 1: to join us on the show. All right, The Cowboys

1227
01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:52,040
Speaker 1: on the board with a three, The Steelers on the

1228
01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:57,200
Speaker 1: move into Cowboys territory. We actually have Sunday night football.

1229
01:15:57,240 --> 01:16:00,920
Speaker 1: We're broadcasting live from the tirag dot com studio. Tyre

1230
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:03,160
Speaker 1: rag dot com will help you get there, and I'm

1231
01:16:03,160 --> 01:16:06,040
Speaker 1: Matt selection fast free shipping, free road hazard protection in

1232
01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:09,840
Speaker 1: over ten thousand recommended installers, tyrag dot com, The way

1233
01:16:09,960 --> 01:16:14,599
Speaker 1: tire buying should be okay. Ephraim is one of these

1234
01:16:14,640 --> 01:16:17,760
Speaker 1: two teams that we're watching. Gonna be the home for

1235
01:16:17,880 --> 01:16:21,000
Speaker 1: DeVante Adams when you and I get back together again

1236
01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:23,800
Speaker 1: next week. Both have been involved in the rumors. I

1237
01:16:23,880 --> 01:16:28,960
Speaker 1: think the Steelers the only one. Realistically, however, you translate it,

1238
01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:33,800
Speaker 1: you tell me what it means. When Davante Adams through

1239
01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:38,760
Speaker 1: all this simply posts on social media a picture of

1240
01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:44,040
Speaker 1: Edgar Allan Poe, whose most famous works include The Raven.

1241
01:16:46,080 --> 01:16:47,439
Speaker 1: What does it all mean?

1242
01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:52,200
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh? Social media crypt sot right.

1243
01:16:53,280 --> 01:16:57,120
Speaker 1: I gotta say this, Cryptic messages are more fun than

1244
01:16:57,280 --> 01:17:01,000
Speaker 1: scrubbing the gram because you are mad at your team.

1245
01:17:01,200 --> 01:17:03,080
Speaker 1: I find this to be at least more fun.

1246
01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:10,599
Speaker 2: That's true. It is. Look, I don't know where you know.

1247
01:17:10,640 --> 01:17:21,120
Speaker 2: It depends on teams have a unique opportunity two what

1248
01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:23,719
Speaker 2: do you what do you say he would he would

1249
01:17:23,960 --> 01:17:26,120
Speaker 2: garner in terms of a draft pick?

1250
01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:32,680
Speaker 1: Well, not a one the NBA, right, So it's not

1251
01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:35,720
Speaker 1: It's not a one, and we'll go from there. And

1252
01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:38,040
Speaker 1: I think the Raiders know that, which is why the

1253
01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:42,560
Speaker 1: reporters started the idea on Twitter last week that the

1254
01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:46,519
Speaker 1: Raiders want a two plus, which means they may not

1255
01:17:46,600 --> 01:17:49,000
Speaker 1: even get that. That's what they're hoping for. I think

1256
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:52,040
Speaker 1: they're going to at least get a three. Depends on

1257
01:17:52,080 --> 01:17:53,880
Speaker 1: what comes with it. Is it two picks? Is it

1258
01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:57,240
Speaker 1: one pick? Is there a player? All of that stuff.

1259
01:17:57,360 --> 01:18:04,479
Speaker 2: Well, let me tell you this, because conventionally are common knowledge,

1260
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:11,960
Speaker 2: is it won't be a one. Then someone could jump

1261
01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:18,960
Speaker 2: the line. Let's just say there's a team who normally

1262
01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:31,520
Speaker 2: picks in the late first round, and they don't feel

1263
01:18:31,600 --> 01:18:38,760
Speaker 2: like their late first round pick is as valuable as

1264
01:18:38,840 --> 01:18:45,400
Speaker 2: say a top fifteen pick, top ten, top five, and

1265
01:18:46,479 --> 01:18:49,360
Speaker 2: the going rate is a three and a five and

1266
01:18:49,400 --> 01:18:56,680
Speaker 2: a six or two in a seven. Who's willing to

1267
01:18:56,720 --> 01:19:03,840
Speaker 2: pull the trigger for Davante Adams in his prime and

1268
01:19:03,880 --> 01:19:07,519
Speaker 2: you have everything else you need? Can you see a

1269
01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:17,160
Speaker 2: team doing that? Yeah, so that's what you know. Conventionally,

1270
01:19:17,200 --> 01:19:22,240
Speaker 2: it would be oh, well, you know to with that knowledge, right,

1271
01:19:22,360 --> 01:19:25,000
Speaker 2: Let's who are those teams? Buffalo, they're usually picking in

1272
01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:29,799
Speaker 2: the bottom of the bottom half of the draft. Kansas

1273
01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:35,680
Speaker 2: City as always taking the thirty second pick in the draft.

1274
01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:40,479
Speaker 1: Right, but stop stop right there? Can I remove Kansas City?

1275
01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:43,559
Speaker 2: I understand it, I know what that means. I get that,

1276
01:19:44,560 --> 01:19:49,559
Speaker 2: But I'm just saying, sure, Baltimore, Baltimore. Sure, right, So

1277
01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:57,840
Speaker 2: there could be a very unique situation happening where you

1278
01:19:58,120 --> 01:20:01,639
Speaker 2: offer up a two, you know, three and a five

1279
01:20:01,920 --> 01:20:06,600
Speaker 2: or or whatever. But someone might be hungry enough to

1280
01:20:06,720 --> 01:20:13,640
Speaker 2: offer up a main dish, right, a meal out of

1281
01:20:13,680 --> 01:20:19,160
Speaker 2: those teams that customarily pick in the back half of

1282
01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:26,240
Speaker 2: the draft. If you feel you are one player away,

1283
01:20:26,840 --> 01:20:31,960
Speaker 2: if Davante Adams lands in Baltimore, there's going to be

1284
01:20:32,040 --> 01:20:38,400
Speaker 2: a problem in the AFC. If Davante Adam lands in Buffalo,

1285
01:20:39,439 --> 01:20:45,599
Speaker 2: there's going to be a problem in the AFC. You think, yeah, yeah,

1286
01:20:45,640 --> 01:20:51,439
Speaker 2: I do, and so you have to keep Now he

1287
01:20:51,479 --> 01:20:53,960
Speaker 2: can go elsewhere. He can go to other you know,

1288
01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:56,080
Speaker 2: he can go to Green Bay, or you can go

1289
01:20:56,160 --> 01:21:02,599
Speaker 2: to you know, a bevy of other two the whole NFC. Right,

1290
01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:07,519
Speaker 2: you can, you can put them anywhere. But those teams

1291
01:21:07,520 --> 01:21:12,040
Speaker 2: that I specifically mentioned have the ability to really put

1292
01:21:12,120 --> 01:21:15,120
Speaker 2: pressure on others and jump the line if that's what

1293
01:21:15,160 --> 01:21:15,840
Speaker 2: they want to do.

1294
01:21:19,960 --> 01:21:24,880
Speaker 1: I don't think that I'm even hearing much about teams

1295
01:21:24,880 --> 01:21:28,120
Speaker 1: in the NFC. The Cowboys have already publicly said no,

1296
01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:31,960
Speaker 1: the fairy Niners are right, the forty nine ers are

1297
01:21:31,960 --> 01:21:34,880
Speaker 1: this weird dark horse that but on the inside, no,

1298
01:21:35,640 --> 01:21:38,800
Speaker 1: And that was also based on Brandon ayuk frustration, which

1299
01:21:38,840 --> 01:21:41,040
Speaker 1: for at least one week goes away because he finally

1300
01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:47,280
Speaker 1: played well. And other than that, it's the Saints, the

1301
01:21:47,320 --> 01:21:51,320
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints. That's literally the only team in the

1302
01:21:51,400 --> 01:21:54,400
Speaker 1: NFC that I find to even be realistic in this discussion.

1303
01:21:58,400 --> 01:21:59,879
Speaker 2: What if he landed in.

1304
01:22:02,680 --> 01:22:04,599
Speaker 1: Well, why would you do that if you're the Lions?

1305
01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:07,559
Speaker 1: Is that what they need to get better? I get what.

1306
01:22:07,960 --> 01:22:11,120
Speaker 1: I know how you're gonna answer that. Everybody wants Devonte Adams,

1307
01:22:11,720 --> 01:22:15,479
Speaker 1: but you just broke off thirty million for aman Ross

1308
01:22:15,520 --> 01:22:20,480
Speaker 1: Saint Brown. You've got draft capital and excitement surrounding Jamison Williams.

1309
01:22:21,840 --> 01:22:27,080
Speaker 1: You want to go redistribute the target share when everything

1310
01:22:27,120 --> 01:22:28,400
Speaker 1: seems to be going very well.

1311
01:22:28,560 --> 01:22:31,559
Speaker 2: I get it, I understand. But as we do know,

1312
01:22:31,680 --> 01:22:33,880
Speaker 2: Detroit will do some strange things.

1313
01:22:33,760 --> 01:22:36,400
Speaker 1: Well, and they have through the years, especially at that position.

1314
01:22:36,520 --> 01:22:40,240
Speaker 2: Well look, but even heading back to the last game

1315
01:22:40,479 --> 01:22:44,960
Speaker 2: of the season two years ago when they foolishly won

1316
01:22:45,160 --> 01:22:48,320
Speaker 2: and gave up the first pick in the draft. Now

1317
01:22:48,360 --> 01:22:50,920
Speaker 2: we all knew they wanted Hutchinson with the first pick

1318
01:22:50,960 --> 01:22:57,120
Speaker 2: in the draft, but they went out and like that

1319
01:22:57,240 --> 01:23:03,960
Speaker 2: whole situation could have changed just on the crazy idea

1320
01:23:04,479 --> 01:23:07,599
Speaker 2: that we're going to win this last game. Because it right,

1321
01:23:07,680 --> 01:23:12,840
Speaker 2: like when you start making decisions like that that can

1322
01:23:13,000 --> 01:23:19,080
Speaker 2: alter your future, right then you're like, oh, okay, well

1323
01:23:19,640 --> 01:23:25,479
Speaker 2: anything is possible. So yeah, on paper, it's like, well,

1324
01:23:25,479 --> 01:23:27,439
Speaker 2: why would you do that? You got Amoran Saint Brown,

1325
01:23:27,479 --> 01:23:32,439
Speaker 2: but if you had Amaralan Saint Brown and Davante Adams.

1326
01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:37,200
Speaker 2: Would that add value to your team? You were at

1327
01:23:37,280 --> 01:23:39,920
Speaker 2: two decisions, two terrible decisions away from being in the

1328
01:23:39,960 --> 01:23:46,439
Speaker 2: super Bowl? Yep and so yep for a team that's

1329
01:23:46,560 --> 01:23:51,400
Speaker 2: gotten a taste of a real meal, and they're usually

1330
01:23:51,479 --> 01:23:56,080
Speaker 2: just eating appetizers, not even eating sorry, excuse me, you're

1331
01:23:56,120 --> 01:24:03,479
Speaker 2: not even eating that hunger to get back to the table. Well,

1332
01:24:04,200 --> 01:24:13,160
Speaker 2: it's almost insane. It's almost insane. So it's such a

1333
01:24:13,400 --> 01:24:16,759
Speaker 2: he's such a dynamic weapon. He's such a game changer

1334
01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:22,639
Speaker 2: to me that I can see someone doing something out

1335
01:24:22,720 --> 01:24:26,240
Speaker 2: of the ordinary. And that's all I'm trying to hit on.

1336
01:24:26,920 --> 01:24:29,719
Speaker 1: Sure, Like no, and I this may not go.

1337
01:24:29,680 --> 01:24:34,320
Speaker 2: As conventionally as it normally will for a free agent.

1338
01:24:34,760 --> 01:24:36,519
Speaker 2: You may a trade.

1339
01:24:36,520 --> 01:24:39,200
Speaker 1: Excuse me, I mean you may well be right. The

1340
01:24:39,280 --> 01:24:44,479
Speaker 1: teams that I hear the most Saints, Bill's, Ravens, Jets,

1341
01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:49,519
Speaker 1: those and I will bet that he ends up playing

1342
01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:52,320
Speaker 1: for one of those one of those teams. But I

1343
01:24:52,360 --> 01:24:56,519
Speaker 1: hear what you're saying. This is kind of it's quiet,

1344
01:24:56,960 --> 01:24:58,960
Speaker 1: it's under the radar. I do think it's going to

1345
01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:04,360
Speaker 1: happen this week, And maybe somebody is lying in the weeds.

1346
01:25:05,240 --> 01:25:07,320
Speaker 2: I will say this because soon as the first offer

1347
01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:12,040
Speaker 2: goes out there, now you know where you stand, Oh totally.

1348
01:25:12,120 --> 01:25:13,840
Speaker 2: As soon as that, hey, we're going to give you

1349
01:25:13,960 --> 01:25:20,440
Speaker 2: a second and a fourth, uh whatever whatever? Now you know, okay,

1350
01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:24,160
Speaker 2: I can, I can jump the line. Right, You've already

1351
01:25:24,160 --> 01:25:26,560
Speaker 2: had the conversation of worst case scenario, what are you

1352
01:25:26,600 --> 01:25:30,360
Speaker 2: willing to give up? And if it's anything better, then

1353
01:25:30,680 --> 01:25:36,760
Speaker 2: what the offer is? You're jumping the line. That's how

1354
01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:38,800
Speaker 2: I think about it. That's how I'm thinking about it.

1355
01:25:39,280 --> 01:25:43,360
Speaker 1: I got something to throw at you here, and it's this.

1356
01:25:45,160 --> 01:25:50,840
Speaker 1: Are you familiar with the next gen analytics stat? Intended

1357
01:25:50,960 --> 01:26:00,240
Speaker 1: air yards for quarterbacks in the NFL? Intended air yards? So,

1358
01:26:00,479 --> 01:26:05,200
Speaker 1: in other words, this is a metric that suggests some

1359
01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:08,639
Speaker 1: information with regard to how far a quarterback is pushing

1360
01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:13,160
Speaker 1: the ball down the field. Right, Not just hey I

1361
01:26:13,240 --> 01:26:16,160
Speaker 1: dinked it and I dunked it and you ran, but

1362
01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:21,840
Speaker 1: intended air yards ball in the air. Number one in

1363
01:26:21,880 --> 01:26:28,679
Speaker 1: the NFL as of right now is Geno Smith. Number

1364
01:26:28,680 --> 01:26:35,000
Speaker 1: two is CJ. Stroud, Number three is brock Purty. I

1365
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:37,000
Speaker 1: could give you the top five. Number four is Kirk

1366
01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:44,920
Speaker 1: Cousins and number five is Joe Burrow nineteenth is Josh

1367
01:26:44,920 --> 01:26:52,320
Speaker 1: Allen nineteenth. And I really think in this particular conversation

1368
01:26:53,080 --> 01:26:56,680
Speaker 1: that matters. We have and you know this, we have

1369
01:26:57,080 --> 01:27:02,919
Speaker 1: wild thoughts that I hear spew about quarterbacks in the NFL,

1370
01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:09,360
Speaker 1: and the reputation certain quarterbacks have absolutely do not match

1371
01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:13,719
Speaker 1: the way they actually play. You'll hear it. Josh Allen

1372
01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:17,080
Speaker 1: and Patrick Mahomes, they're just hawking the ball all over

1373
01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:22,160
Speaker 1: the place. They are, respectively, nineteenth and twentieth in the league.

1374
01:27:23,120 --> 01:27:27,000
Speaker 1: But of course Brock Purdy, who do and did dunk

1375
01:27:27,479 --> 01:27:32,320
Speaker 1: third in the league. So and we know because we've

1376
01:27:32,360 --> 01:27:35,880
Speaker 1: had that conversation a thousand times, but especially now with

1377
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:40,479
Speaker 1: Stefan Diggs gone, and for that matter, Khalil Shakir Hurt.

1378
01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:44,080
Speaker 1: Watch a Bills game and they've lost two games in

1379
01:27:44,120 --> 01:27:49,360
Speaker 1: a row. And everything Josh Allen does is right in

1380
01:27:49,400 --> 01:27:52,559
Speaker 1: front of him. And if he's got a receiver that

1381
01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:56,800
Speaker 1: can go downfield, it hasn't developed yet. They drafted Keon

1382
01:27:56,880 --> 01:27:59,559
Speaker 1: Coleman early. Maybe he'll be that, but he's not yet.

1383
01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:03,840
Speaker 1: And I look at a team that obviously is staring

1384
01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:07,679
Speaker 1: at a division championship. If they just dot their eyes

1385
01:28:08,160 --> 01:28:13,120
Speaker 1: and cross their t's and and they they don't want

1386
01:28:13,160 --> 01:28:18,000
Speaker 1: this player a from they need this player facts. So

1387
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:23,720
Speaker 1: if I'm the Bills, I've already called the Raiders and

1388
01:28:23,880 --> 01:28:27,320
Speaker 1: I just say, here's the deal. We're gonna wait to

1389
01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:31,599
Speaker 1: the end. You just call us, you tell us what

1390
01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:36,639
Speaker 1: your best offer is, and we will beat it. Period.

1391
01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:39,360
Speaker 2: That's it.

1392
01:28:39,400 --> 01:28:43,920
Speaker 1: Go shopping that, Yeah, that's it. That to me, that's

1393
01:28:43,960 --> 01:28:49,400
Speaker 1: the team. They have got to get this player because

1394
01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:53,000
Speaker 1: that changes everything everything. The super Bowl is so gettable

1395
01:28:53,040 --> 01:28:53,439
Speaker 1: this year.

1396
01:28:54,000 --> 01:29:02,400
Speaker 2: It changes it immediately. And so that's what I think.

1397
01:29:02,960 --> 01:29:07,800
Speaker 2: He is the caliber of player where we're going to

1398
01:29:07,840 --> 01:29:14,640
Speaker 2: see a different trade scenario. You know, normally there are

1399
01:29:14,960 --> 01:29:22,639
Speaker 2: very few big trade blockbuster deals. Are trading of first

1400
01:29:22,680 --> 01:29:26,200
Speaker 2: round draft picks are in the NFL. That's an NBA thing.

1401
01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:31,000
Speaker 2: You you will mortgage, you know, your next four first

1402
01:29:31,080 --> 01:29:34,840
Speaker 2: round draft picks in some cases, right you know, with

1403
01:29:35,040 --> 01:29:38,639
Speaker 2: a KD got five first round draft picks.

1404
01:29:38,800 --> 01:29:40,759
Speaker 1: That's setting everybody.

1405
01:29:41,479 --> 01:29:46,880
Speaker 2: But that's not very customary in in the NFL. It's

1406
01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:49,720
Speaker 2: very rarely happens. Now, you may give up picks for

1407
01:29:49,960 --> 01:29:52,080
Speaker 2: to move up in a draft, first round draft pick,

1408
01:29:52,160 --> 01:29:54,160
Speaker 2: future first round draft picks to move up in a

1409
01:29:54,240 --> 01:29:59,240
Speaker 2: draft but not not necessarily for player. But I think

1410
01:29:59,320 --> 01:30:01,800
Speaker 2: this may be one of those situations to one of

1411
01:30:01,800 --> 01:30:04,559
Speaker 2: those key teams we just talked about that it would

1412
01:30:04,560 --> 01:30:09,120
Speaker 2: make a world of difference and quite possibly put them

1413
01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:12,200
Speaker 2: over the Kansas City Hump.

1414
01:30:13,880 --> 01:30:17,040
Speaker 1: While we're talking about things to do with the Las

1415
01:30:17,160 --> 01:30:21,640
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders, we'll stay right there. Coming up next with

1416
01:30:21,760 --> 01:30:26,759
Speaker 1: Epram Salaam, I'm Mark Willard, and it's Fox Sports Radio, Okay,

1417
01:30:26,880 --> 01:30:31,080
Speaker 1: Lon Tye Rag dot Com Studios with Ephram Salaam, I'm

1418
01:30:31,160 --> 01:30:34,560
Speaker 1: Mark Willard. A three to three tie between the Cowboys

1419
01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:38,120
Speaker 1: and Steelers. Very delayed start, they're still in the first quarter,

1420
01:30:38,720 --> 01:30:43,919
Speaker 1: and Steve de Sager will be along with details here shortly.

1421
01:30:44,040 --> 01:30:48,519
Speaker 1: All right, while we're talking about DeVante Adams, what if

1422
01:30:48,560 --> 01:30:54,240
Speaker 1: we talk about Antonio Pierce for a second. Look. It's

1423
01:30:54,240 --> 01:30:57,760
Speaker 1: been a minute and only a minute, so I don't

1424
01:30:57,800 --> 01:31:02,960
Speaker 1: think anything gets solidified necessarily anytime soon. He's in a

1425
01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:08,280
Speaker 1: tough spot, but he is classically that interim coach that

1426
01:31:08,479 --> 01:31:12,200
Speaker 1: comes in with an energy shift that was needed in

1427
01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:15,800
Speaker 1: the moment, but that doesn't really have anything to do

1428
01:31:15,960 --> 01:31:20,839
Speaker 1: with the long haul. Antonio was needed in that moment,

1429
01:31:21,680 --> 01:31:24,960
Speaker 1: but then to give him the job, to me, looks

1430
01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:30,479
Speaker 1: like a big mistake. He looks totally overmatched, and I

1431
01:31:30,520 --> 01:31:33,840
Speaker 1: know there's something that's unfair about that. It's not his

1432
01:31:34,080 --> 01:31:37,440
Speaker 1: job in a short term to find a new quarterback

1433
01:31:37,800 --> 01:31:40,759
Speaker 1: and they just don't have one. But at the same time,

1434
01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:43,160
Speaker 1: when you look at the way all of these things

1435
01:31:43,200 --> 01:31:46,920
Speaker 1: are being handled, and you remember what I said earlier

1436
01:31:46,960 --> 01:31:49,439
Speaker 1: this year about how he handled the press conference the

1437
01:31:49,520 --> 01:31:54,360
Speaker 1: day after Tua got hit, completely different scenario, nothing to

1438
01:31:54,400 --> 01:31:59,160
Speaker 1: do with Davonte. I thought totally out of line for

1439
01:31:59,640 --> 01:32:02,400
Speaker 1: a head coach to say what he said. It's one

1440
01:32:02,400 --> 01:32:06,720
Speaker 1: thing to express compassion and care, that's wonderful, but to

1441
01:32:06,920 --> 01:32:10,960
Speaker 1: openly and directly suggests that someone else's fifty two million

1442
01:32:10,960 --> 01:32:15,400
Speaker 1: dollars per year investment in starting quarterback should unequivocally up

1443
01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:17,679
Speaker 1: and leave the game, and you would suggest it directly

1444
01:32:17,720 --> 01:32:20,200
Speaker 1: to him to me, out of line for another head

1445
01:32:20,200 --> 01:32:24,479
Speaker 1: coach to say, I agree. Now you're right, yes, right,

1446
01:32:24,560 --> 01:32:27,600
Speaker 1: And now there's this. Now there is a team that

1447
01:32:27,760 --> 01:32:30,439
Speaker 1: is quickly looking like it's going to have a hard

1448
01:32:30,439 --> 01:32:33,479
Speaker 1: time staying competitive in games. I don't know how on

1449
01:32:33,520 --> 01:32:36,280
Speaker 1: earth you give up that many points to the Denver Broncos,

1450
01:32:37,280 --> 01:32:42,240
Speaker 1: adding the DeVante Adams situation. We got co we're liking

1451
01:32:43,160 --> 01:32:47,840
Speaker 1: things on Instagram. It just the whole thing has gone

1452
01:32:48,080 --> 01:32:52,200
Speaker 1: so fast. He looks so underwater with everything he's doing

1453
01:32:52,280 --> 01:32:52,719
Speaker 1: right now.

1454
01:32:53,840 --> 01:33:03,320
Speaker 2: It looks like it's a bit much. Now. They did

1455
01:33:03,439 --> 01:33:10,280
Speaker 2: need his energy, yep. But I will say this, Things

1456
01:33:10,320 --> 01:33:14,439
Speaker 2: look different when you don't have a quarterback. Things feel

1457
01:33:14,479 --> 01:33:18,440
Speaker 2: different when you don't have a quarterback. Having a quarterback

1458
01:33:18,479 --> 01:33:23,360
Speaker 2: can solve a lot of problems. Not having one can

1459
01:33:23,400 --> 01:33:26,680
Speaker 2: cause a lot, and I think that's where we are.

1460
01:33:30,240 --> 01:33:36,360
Speaker 2: They don't have enough talent offensively to compete when everybody

1461
01:33:36,400 --> 01:33:41,120
Speaker 2: else is stocking up, So it puts them in a

1462
01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:48,719
Speaker 2: position of you can only talk yourself into so many wins.

1463
01:33:49,520 --> 01:33:53,519
Speaker 2: It's a good line, and so at a certain point,

1464
01:33:54,080 --> 01:33:56,639
Speaker 2: you're gonna need the rubber to meet the road. You're

1465
01:33:56,680 --> 01:33:59,800
Speaker 2: going to need somebody to come out and be able

1466
01:33:59,840 --> 01:34:04,320
Speaker 2: to throw the ball down the field, and your only

1467
01:34:04,479 --> 01:34:07,760
Speaker 2: best your best weapon on offense doesn't want to be there.

1468
01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:14,559
Speaker 2: So it's not an ideal situation for a new coach

1469
01:34:15,400 --> 01:34:17,920
Speaker 2: trying to find his way and trying to figure out

1470
01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:20,800
Speaker 2: what type of team he has. That's where we are

1471
01:34:20,880 --> 01:34:25,679
Speaker 2: right now, and I understand I understand that oh fumble,

1472
01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:32,040
Speaker 2: Oh goodness, gracious Sach meet at the quarterback. TJ. White

1473
01:34:32,120 --> 01:34:35,360
Speaker 2: is a difference maker. That's who they need and want

1474
01:34:35,479 --> 01:34:39,080
Speaker 2: Michael Parsons to be. Michael Parsons is not that. Let

1475
01:34:39,120 --> 01:34:42,840
Speaker 2: me just say that, Michael Parsons is not that. But

1476
01:34:42,920 --> 01:34:46,960
Speaker 2: you can say, Miles Garrett is that. You can say,

1477
01:34:47,320 --> 01:34:56,880
Speaker 2: you can say right, you can say, uh Bosa is that?

1478
01:34:55,600 --> 01:34:55,800
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1479
01:34:56,880 --> 01:35:00,240
Speaker 2: As considerable not This dude is gonna show up like

1480
01:35:00,320 --> 01:35:05,240
Speaker 2: he is his brother. Yep, just more athletic. As crazy

1481
01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:06,600
Speaker 2: as that sounds.

1482
01:35:06,439 --> 01:35:09,160
Speaker 1: I got t J. Watt and Fred Warner right now

1483
01:35:09,200 --> 01:35:12,360
Speaker 1: as the two players who run away defensive side look

1484
01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:14,920
Speaker 1: like they are just changing almost every play.

1485
01:35:15,040 --> 01:35:19,880
Speaker 2: They're playing with boys, yes, and not that way they're

1486
01:35:19,880 --> 01:35:27,640
Speaker 2: playing amongst boys. Sound weird. It sounded weird coming out.

1487
01:35:26,880 --> 01:35:29,720
Speaker 2: We wait wait wait wait, let me back, let me

1488
01:35:29,720 --> 01:35:30,040
Speaker 2: back up.

1489
01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:33,160
Speaker 1: Hold on. I was like, hold on, Fred just called

1490
01:35:33,880 --> 01:35:35,920
Speaker 1: he would like to talk to you. Hold on one

1491
01:35:35,960 --> 01:35:41,120
Speaker 1: second anyway, Yes, Zach Fumble, Dak Prescott Steelers, grab it

1492
01:35:41,439 --> 01:35:45,040
Speaker 1: and we're going the other way. I would also suggest

1493
01:35:45,080 --> 01:35:50,479
Speaker 1: this though, for the Las Vegas Raiders, I get wanting

1494
01:35:50,520 --> 01:35:54,519
Speaker 1: to slow play this, you know, act like we're not

1495
01:35:54,600 --> 01:35:57,320
Speaker 1: sure how it's all gonna go. We'd like to keep

1496
01:35:57,360 --> 01:35:59,360
Speaker 1: the leverage a boy if we don't get the right off,

1497
01:35:59,439 --> 01:36:03,000
Speaker 1: or we're just to keep him and DeVante's hurt and

1498
01:36:03,200 --> 01:36:05,920
Speaker 1: we'll put him back out there, and or you know,

1499
01:36:06,040 --> 01:36:08,120
Speaker 1: let's wait till the offers get a little high. There's

1500
01:36:08,160 --> 01:36:12,240
Speaker 1: no hurry. There's a lot of hurry. You got to

1501
01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:16,559
Speaker 1: do this by Thursday, maybe by Wednesday. You have to

1502
01:36:16,600 --> 01:36:21,679
Speaker 1: do this by Wednesday, because it's not being handled well.

1503
01:36:22,240 --> 01:36:26,280
Speaker 1: It is sitting on everyone's shoulders. Watch a press conference

1504
01:36:26,320 --> 01:36:29,879
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas right now. Nobody wants to ask Antonio

1505
01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:36,520
Speaker 1: about anyone else. Nobody wants to talk about anything. It's

1506
01:36:36,680 --> 01:36:40,040
Speaker 1: gathered media trying to find new ways to ask about

1507
01:36:40,120 --> 01:36:43,320
Speaker 1: DeVante Adams, and Antonio looks like he's gonna lose it.

1508
01:36:44,160 --> 01:36:46,560
Speaker 1: He doesn't know how to answer any of the questions

1509
01:36:47,040 --> 01:36:49,599
Speaker 1: and he's not really answering him right because they're still

1510
01:36:49,640 --> 01:36:51,600
Speaker 1: trying to act like they don't have to do this,

1511
01:36:51,680 --> 01:36:54,760
Speaker 1: and they might not, and they're totally going to do this,

1512
01:36:54,880 --> 01:36:56,679
Speaker 1: and they do have to do this, and they should

1513
01:36:56,720 --> 01:36:57,519
Speaker 1: do it by Wednesday.

1514
01:36:57,680 --> 01:37:01,439
Speaker 2: It's going to get done. It's gonna get I mean,

1515
01:37:01,520 --> 01:37:04,840
Speaker 2: the team that acquires him wants him to get up

1516
01:37:04,880 --> 01:37:07,120
Speaker 2: to speed so they can get the ground running.

1517
01:37:07,600 --> 01:37:12,240
Speaker 1: That too, that too, And by the way, I think

1518
01:37:12,280 --> 01:37:15,519
Speaker 1: he's got a hamstring, but this is starting to feel

1519
01:37:15,720 --> 01:37:16,920
Speaker 1: very Jalen Ram.

1520
01:37:17,200 --> 01:37:19,960
Speaker 2: Is not hamstring level of.

1521
01:37:20,680 --> 01:37:25,280
Speaker 1: I'm like, dude is going to really get great treatment

1522
01:37:25,360 --> 01:37:28,360
Speaker 1: on that plane wherever he lands for his new team,

1523
01:37:28,439 --> 01:37:34,080
Speaker 1: because he's gonna slide down the stairs of that plane

1524
01:37:34,640 --> 01:37:38,480
Speaker 1: and he will be active next Sunday.

1525
01:37:38,960 --> 01:37:46,320
Speaker 2: How you know how how therapeutic the right plane ride

1526
01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:46,680
Speaker 2: could be.

1527
01:37:48,840 --> 01:37:51,880
Speaker 1: I would argue almost as therapeutic as listening to a

1528
01:37:52,240 --> 01:37:56,880
Speaker 1: Steve de Seger radio program, very soothing voice, very just

1529
01:37:57,080 --> 01:38:01,479
Speaker 1: feels good. Yes, good, Even, ladies and gentlemen.

1530
01:38:01,560 --> 01:38:04,120
Speaker 3: We've got football on the field at Pittsburgh and they've

1531
01:38:04,120 --> 01:38:07,080
Speaker 3: started the second quarter and it's three three Steelers and

1532
01:38:07,200 --> 01:38:09,759
Speaker 3: Dallas the Cowboys.

1533
01:38:09,120 --> 01:38:10,360
Speaker 4: With their field goal drive.

1534
01:38:10,600 --> 01:38:13,080
Speaker 3: One first down after the opening kickoff, and you're in

1535
01:38:13,120 --> 01:38:15,559
Speaker 3: field goal range with Brandon Aubrey. He kicked a fifty

1536
01:38:15,600 --> 01:38:18,880
Speaker 3: five yarder and then Pittsburgh responded with a forty one

1537
01:38:18,960 --> 01:38:21,679
Speaker 3: yard field goal, and that's where we are, early second quarter.

1538
01:38:21,920 --> 01:38:23,880
Speaker 3: Even there was a long weather delay at the start

1539
01:38:23,960 --> 01:38:27,920
Speaker 3: kickoff was not till nine forty five pm Eastern time.

1540
01:38:28,360 --> 01:38:31,559
Speaker 3: Steelers are allowing just thirteen points per game. Keep in

1541
01:38:31,600 --> 01:38:34,599
Speaker 3: mind they are three and one this season. Arizona one

1542
01:38:34,640 --> 01:38:36,599
Speaker 3: in the heat at San Francisco on a field goal

1543
01:38:36,600 --> 01:38:38,559
Speaker 3: with about a minute and a half left, twenty four

1544
01:38:38,520 --> 01:38:41,920
Speaker 3: to twenty three. San Francisco's record two and three. The

1545
01:38:42,000 --> 01:38:44,320
Speaker 3: Giants were zero and three in conference, but got to

1546
01:38:44,360 --> 01:38:47,000
Speaker 3: win at Seattle twenty nine to twenty. Gino Smith was

1547
01:38:47,080 --> 01:38:49,760
Speaker 3: sacked seven times. Green Bay was a winner at the

01:38:56,200 --> 01:38:58,960
Speaker 3: Denver was down ten to nothing early, still beat the

1551
01:38:59,040 --> 01:39:03,040
Speaker 3: Raiders thirty four eighteen. Raiders through three interceptions out today

1552
01:39:03,080 --> 01:39:05,960
Speaker 3: for Las Vegas, we're running back Zamir White and wide

1553
01:39:06,000 --> 01:39:09,200
Speaker 3: receiver Devonte Adams that combined twenty penalties in that game.

1554
01:39:09,600 --> 01:39:12,479
Speaker 3: A classic at Cincinnati went to the Baltimore Ravens in

1555
01:39:12,520 --> 01:39:16,240
Speaker 3: overtime forty one thirty eight. Justin Tucker tied at Leyton

1556

1569
01:39:55,360 --> 01:39:57,120
Speaker 3: row to go to four and one. They're alone and

1570
01:39:57,200 --> 01:40:00,479
Speaker 3: first in their division. Minnesota took the London game today

1571
01:40:00,479 --> 01:40:03,599
Speaker 3: over the Jets twenty three seventeen. The Vikings are five

1572
01:40:03,640 --> 01:40:07,000

01:40:07,040 --> 01:40:09,040
Speaker 3: Longhorns are back to number one in the New AP

1574
01:40:09,240 --> 01:40:12,920
Speaker 3: College Football Pool. A NASCAR victory at Talladega for Ricky

1575
01:40:12,920 --> 01:40:17,520
Speaker 3: Stenhouse break Keslowski finished a close second in the WNBA playoffs.

1576
01:40:17,520 --> 01:40:20,840
Speaker 3: Connecticut stayed alive, beating Minnesota New York in its semi

1577
01:40:20,880 --> 01:40:24,879
Speaker 3: final best of five eliminated Las Vegas to Major League Baseball.

1578
01:40:24,960 --> 01:40:27,240
Speaker 3: It's now Padres six to one over the Dodgers in

1579
01:40:27,400 --> 01:40:29,400
Speaker 3: La top of the eighth inning of this best of

1580
01:40:29,439 --> 01:40:32,519
Speaker 3: five division series. The Padres will host games three and

1581
01:40:32,680 --> 01:40:36,280
Speaker 3: four Tuesday and Wednesday nights on FS one. A great

1582
01:40:36,360 --> 01:40:40,679
Speaker 3: start from you, Darvish former Dodgers. Seven innings, eighty two

1583
01:40:40,720 --> 01:40:43,800
Speaker 3: pitches thrown so far. Philadelphia with a run in the

1584
01:40:43,840 --> 01:40:45,960
Speaker 3: bottom of the ninth beat the Mets seven to six.

1585
01:40:46,040 --> 01:40:48,800
Speaker 3: Nick Castillanos the game winning single. He had three hits,

1586
01:40:48,840 --> 01:40:51,880
Speaker 3: including a home run. That series tied at a game apiece,

1587
01:40:52,080 --> 01:40:54,479
Speaker 3: just as the Padres are apparently about to tie it

1588
01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:57,400
Speaker 3: at a game apiece because Sander Bogarts is now just

1589
01:40:57,479 --> 01:40:58,280
Speaker 3: homered off the pen.

1590
01:40:58,400 --> 01:41:00,599
Speaker 4: It's seven to one San Diego in the top.

1591
01:41:01,280 --> 01:41:04,080
Speaker 2: And he did it would have hurt hamstring. He heard

1592
01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:05,559
Speaker 2: his hamstring on the swing before.

1593
01:41:05,720 --> 01:41:07,639
Speaker 3: Well on a home run, Jog, I guess you don't

1594
01:41:07,680 --> 01:41:10,800
Speaker 3: have to go full speed. There was a delay in

1595
01:41:10,840 --> 01:41:12,920
Speaker 3: the seventh inning stretch. Those who have been to Dodger

1596
01:41:13,000 --> 01:41:15,160
Speaker 3: Stadium may know that the folks who sit around the

1597
01:41:15,160 --> 01:41:18,040
Speaker 3: foul poles or the outfield position, the fan behavior is

1598
01:41:18,120 --> 01:41:19,719
Speaker 3: just a little different than the rest.

1599
01:41:19,479 --> 01:41:20,640
Speaker 4: Of the stadium.

1600
01:41:21,120 --> 01:41:24,559
Speaker 3: So let's just say those parts of the stadiums caused

1601
01:41:24,600 --> 01:41:28,000
Speaker 3: a delay at the seventh inning stretch and some things

1602
01:41:28,000 --> 01:41:29,599
Speaker 3: may or may not have been thrown on the field.

1603
01:41:30,040 --> 01:41:33,160
Speaker 3: Philadelphia beating the Mets today makes it one game apiece

1604
01:41:33,200 --> 01:41:35,840
Speaker 3: in that series. Game three is Tuesday in New York.

1605
01:41:36,040 --> 01:41:38,880
Speaker 3: That'll be five pm Eastern time on FS one. The

1606
01:41:38,920 --> 01:41:41,599
Speaker 3: two American League Division series each continue tomorrow.

1607
01:41:41,600 --> 01:41:45,799
Speaker 1: Back to you, Steve, great stuff tonight. Thank you as always,

1615
01:42:05,280 --> 01:42:09,960
Speaker 1: posted right after we get off the air. Okay, a

1616
01:42:10,080 --> 01:42:12,840
Speaker 1: couple of things that still wanted to play with here,

1617
01:42:13,280 --> 01:42:15,760
Speaker 1: and I think it's been a theme tonight. This thing

1618
01:42:15,840 --> 01:42:18,800
Speaker 1: is wide open. I asked you earlier who looks amazing

1619
01:42:18,880 --> 01:42:23,320
Speaker 1: in the NFL, and we couldn't really come up with anyone.

1620
01:42:23,360 --> 01:42:25,320
Speaker 1: And I know, I know they'd be fans of a

1621
01:42:25,360 --> 01:42:28,640
Speaker 1: few teams out there not thrilled with that. I mean,

1622
01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:31,839
Speaker 1: the Vikings are five and oh and and for however,

1623
01:42:31,880 --> 01:42:33,840
Speaker 1: the Chiefs have gotten there, they are four and oh

1624
01:42:34,520 --> 01:42:37,639
Speaker 1: and that's all fair. But here here's sort of another

1625
01:42:37,640 --> 01:42:40,720
Speaker 1: way to look at it. IM. If I asked you

1626
01:42:40,760 --> 01:42:42,680
Speaker 1: this right now, what would you do with it? If

1627
01:42:42,720 --> 01:42:47,160
Speaker 1: I gave you an MVP vote? Who are you giving

1628
01:42:47,200 --> 01:42:47,439
Speaker 1: it to?

1629
01:42:51,520 --> 01:42:55,560
Speaker 2: H That's pretty good, that's it.

1630
01:42:56,439 --> 01:43:00,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I think your response already it kind of

1631
01:43:01,680 --> 01:43:03,759
Speaker 1: speaks the volumes that we're talking about.

1632
01:43:06,160 --> 01:43:16,360
Speaker 2: I would probably, I mean, in this situation, I mean you,

1633
01:43:16,479 --> 01:43:22,080
Speaker 2: I guess you would lean lean towards a quarterback like

1634
01:43:22,240 --> 01:43:24,160
Speaker 2: most MVPs these.

1635
01:43:24,160 --> 01:43:29,640
Speaker 1: Visually plus plus, I don't necessarily see anybody else in

1636
01:43:29,680 --> 01:43:36,400
Speaker 1: the non quarterback world who's like just totally you know,

1637
01:43:36,520 --> 01:43:39,960
Speaker 1: blowing us away. I could think there's a couple of players.

1638
01:43:46,240 --> 01:43:50,200
Speaker 2: I would probably, you know, do something like maybe a CJ.

1639
01:43:50,320 --> 01:44:00,280
Speaker 2: Stroud in Houston. M hm, quite possibly. Uh, you know

1640
01:44:00,360 --> 01:44:03,639
Speaker 2: outside of today is Sam Donald even though they got

1641
01:44:03,680 --> 01:44:15,080
Speaker 2: to win, sometimes you gotta win ugly, but just it's

1642
01:44:15,120 --> 01:44:16,160
Speaker 2: not a lot out there.

1643
01:44:17,160 --> 01:44:19,560
Speaker 1: Can I can I give you four candidates. Yes, I

1644
01:44:19,640 --> 01:44:22,680
Speaker 1: shall give you five. I give you five. And my

1645
01:44:22,760 --> 01:44:26,200
Speaker 1: stats are not updated through today's play, so this is

1646
01:44:26,240 --> 01:44:31,559
Speaker 1: basically through Thursday's play. So most of these qbs have

1647
01:44:31,720 --> 01:44:34,519
Speaker 1: played four games to amass these stats, and you can

1648
01:44:34,560 --> 01:44:37,439
Speaker 1: then put together what they did today with their stats

1649
01:44:37,439 --> 01:44:40,599
Speaker 1: and then a winner or a loss. But Sam Donald

1650
01:44:40,680 --> 01:44:43,800
Speaker 1: is five and oh and before today's game led the

1651
01:44:43,880 --> 01:44:46,560
Speaker 1: league with a one hundred and eighteen point nine quarterback

1652
01:44:46,640 --> 01:44:49,240
Speaker 1: rating is also tied for the league league.

1653
01:44:49,240 --> 01:44:52,360
Speaker 2: Oh you know what, let me on before you let

1654
01:44:52,400 --> 01:44:54,080
Speaker 2: me before I hear yours. Let me just throw this

1655
01:44:54,120 --> 01:44:58,519
Speaker 2: in there. Jaydon Daniels, well, Jadon Daniels definitely on the list.

1656
01:44:58,520 --> 01:45:02,160
Speaker 2: Go ahead, sorry, I but in terms of giving yes,

1657
01:45:02,200 --> 01:45:04,760
Speaker 2: he would be probably my fruit runner.

1658
01:45:05,240 --> 01:45:08,280
Speaker 1: And again fourth rated quarterback in the league. Four and one,

1659
01:45:10,439 --> 01:45:12,920
Speaker 1: Josh Allen, even though he's lost to in a row,

1660
01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:15,519
Speaker 1: second rated quarterback in the league. They're in first place.

1661
01:45:16,560 --> 01:45:19,800
Speaker 1: And then you mentioned CJ. Stroud, and I will throw

1662
01:45:19,880 --> 01:45:24,760
Speaker 1: in Lamar Jackson, who has got them to three and two.

1663
01:45:25,479 --> 01:45:29,000
Speaker 1: Is the reigning MVP an excitable George Good. Yeah, and

1664
01:45:29,040 --> 01:45:31,479
Speaker 1: also you know you look at, for instance, the numbers

1665
01:45:31,520 --> 01:45:34,920
Speaker 1: he put up to the box office He's unbelievable. If

1666
01:45:34,960 --> 01:45:38,080
Speaker 1: I were going to look at any non quarterbacks, you're

1667
01:45:38,160 --> 01:45:40,519
Speaker 1: probably I don't know if your list can go far

1668
01:45:40,600 --> 01:45:43,840
Speaker 1: beyond Nicocollins and.

1669
01:45:43,680 --> 01:45:48,439
Speaker 2: Derrick Henry that would be it. Yeah, has a hamstring, now, so.

1670
01:45:48,720 --> 01:45:53,720
Speaker 1: Nico's got a hamstring, yes, yes, but but that's that's

1671
01:45:53,800 --> 01:45:56,559
Speaker 1: probably your your list. Who would you vote for?

1672
01:45:58,280 --> 01:46:02,479
Speaker 2: I would give it, you know, because of what he's

1673
01:46:02,520 --> 01:46:04,800
Speaker 2: meant to his team and the trajectory he's on. Or

1674
01:46:04,840 --> 01:46:09,559
Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels. The kid is fun to watch, man, Isn't

1675
01:46:09,560 --> 01:46:11,920
Speaker 2: that crazy good? And it's crazy? This kid is fun.

1676
01:46:12,080 --> 01:46:16,599
Speaker 2: It's fun as as good as Lamar Jackson is to watch,

1677
01:46:16,800 --> 01:46:22,240
Speaker 2: as electrifying as this kid is something special. Man, he

1678
01:46:22,280 --> 01:46:23,640
Speaker 2: can throw a pretty ball.

1679
01:46:23,960 --> 01:46:27,479
Speaker 1: Yep, yep. You know what's wild? Do you have any

1680
01:46:27,520 --> 01:46:29,400
Speaker 1: touchdown passes Jaden has this year?

1681
01:46:30,320 --> 01:46:33,840
Speaker 2: It's like what three to two, four? Or yeah it

1682
01:46:34,000 --> 01:46:34,599
Speaker 2: was fourth?

1683
01:46:35,080 --> 01:46:39,960
Speaker 1: Yeah no, no, but but his quarterback rating is is

1684
01:46:40,040 --> 01:46:43,960
Speaker 1: over one hundred and six. He's rushed for four touchdowns

1685
01:46:43,960 --> 01:46:48,519
Speaker 1: as well. And maybe the prettiest thing of all, this

1686
01:46:48,600 --> 01:46:53,000
Speaker 1: young kid in his first five games as an NFL

1687
01:46:53,040 --> 01:46:56,360
Speaker 1: player is not only four and one, he's turned it over.

1688
01:46:56,320 --> 01:47:05,200
Speaker 2: Twice it, so you just multiply that three more times.

1689
01:47:07,160 --> 01:47:07,320
Speaker 1: Right.

1690
01:47:07,320 --> 01:47:10,200
Speaker 2: If he can stay there and you know three and

1691
01:47:10,280 --> 01:47:14,439
Speaker 2: do that, just continue to duplicate that, then he'll run

1692
01:47:14,479 --> 01:47:15,160
Speaker 2: away with this thing.

1693
01:47:17,560 --> 01:47:20,559
Speaker 1: MVP is a rookie now, see.

1694
01:47:21,960 --> 01:47:24,080
Speaker 2: I would love to see him put that type of

1695
01:47:24,120 --> 01:47:29,320
Speaker 2: pressure on the voters because obviously he would win Offensive

1696
01:47:29,400 --> 01:47:30,360
Speaker 2: Rookie of the Year.

1697
01:47:30,840 --> 01:47:32,200
Speaker 1: Sure, all of.

1698
01:47:32,120 --> 01:47:35,440
Speaker 2: Those things, right, but then do they give the Offensive

1699
01:47:35,479 --> 01:47:39,600
Speaker 2: Rookie of the Year and the League MVP to them?

1700
01:47:40,280 --> 01:47:41,759
Speaker 2: Has that ever happened?

1701
01:47:43,800 --> 01:47:47,959
Speaker 1: That's a Steve question, certainly, not that I can remember.

1702
01:47:48,280 --> 01:47:49,360
Speaker 1: I doubt it. Well.

1703
01:47:49,800 --> 01:47:52,479
Speaker 2: The good thing about Steve is we'll have that answer

1704
01:47:55,200 --> 01:47:57,600
Speaker 2: before you can shake a stick at it.

1705
01:47:57,840 --> 01:48:00,240
Speaker 1: He's probably already saying the answer and the other room

1706
01:48:00,320 --> 01:48:05,400
Speaker 1: right now as we speak, is my guess. Okay, some

1707
01:48:05,439 --> 01:48:07,680
Speaker 1: final thoughts coming up as we continue to watch the

1708
01:48:08,040 --> 01:48:10,839
Speaker 1: Steelers and Cowboys, we'll get ready to hand the baton

1709
01:48:10,920 --> 01:48:13,080
Speaker 1: off as well with e from Salama Mark Weather. It's

1710
01:48:13,080 --> 01:48:19,559
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio all right, tyerrag dot com Studios. Yeah,

1711
01:48:19,640 --> 01:48:24,240
Speaker 1: it's a night of rain and night of field goals

1712
01:48:24,280 --> 01:48:27,479
Speaker 1: as well. Cowboys in front of the Steelers six to

1713
01:48:27,600 --> 01:48:32,120
Speaker 1: three second quarter, second quarter action as we close in

1714
01:48:32,160 --> 01:48:37,240
Speaker 1: on eleven pm Eastern time. This game is going to

1715
01:48:37,320 --> 01:48:40,479
Speaker 1: quickly switch from Sunday night football to Monday morning football.

1716
01:48:43,479 --> 01:48:46,479
Speaker 1: But that's the way it all went down. I wanted

1717
01:48:46,479 --> 01:48:48,559
Speaker 1: to throw this at you because I do feel there's

1718
01:48:48,600 --> 01:48:51,040
Speaker 1: a city out there that's sitting there going come on,

1719
01:48:51,960 --> 01:48:54,800
Speaker 1: how are you going to sit there and talk about

1720
01:48:55,120 --> 01:48:58,040
Speaker 1: Jade and Daniels all day? You're gonna start bringing them

1721
01:48:58,080 --> 01:48:59,840
Speaker 1: up as a division winner. You're gonna bring him up

1722
01:48:59,840 --> 01:49:04,960
Speaker 1: as potential MVP. Hold on a second, can you say

1723
01:49:05,040 --> 01:49:08,519
Speaker 1: something about the one player who was drafted in front

1724
01:49:08,560 --> 01:49:13,320
Speaker 1: of him, who today I would argue, for the first

1725
01:49:13,439 --> 01:49:17,559
Speaker 1: time in his young career, he really looked like something too.

1726
01:49:17,720 --> 01:49:18,920
Speaker 2: Oh, he was special today.

1727
01:49:19,000 --> 01:49:21,360
Speaker 1: He was fantastic. And if you missed the line for

1728
01:49:21,479 --> 01:49:25,599
Speaker 1: Caleb Williams, it was three hundred four yards passing, it

1729
01:49:25,640 --> 01:49:29,120
Speaker 1: was a seventy percent completion percentage. It was two touchdowns

1730
01:49:29,360 --> 01:49:32,320
Speaker 1: to his leading receiver, DJ Moore, who went over one

1731
01:49:32,400 --> 01:49:35,640
Speaker 1: hundred yards. It was thirty four yards rushing. It was

1732
01:49:35,800 --> 01:49:39,960
Speaker 1: under control, it was no turnovers, it was poised, it

1733
01:49:40,000 --> 01:49:42,920
Speaker 1: was all. It was all the same thing. And look,

1734
01:49:43,320 --> 01:49:47,480
Speaker 1: that doesn't do anything to knock me off of Jayden Daniels.

1735
01:49:47,479 --> 01:49:50,080
Speaker 1: But who knows, Man, maybe both of the teams got

1736
01:49:50,080 --> 01:49:50,439
Speaker 1: it right.

1737
01:49:51,360 --> 01:49:53,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they did get it right. I think

1738
01:49:54,280 --> 01:50:00,920
Speaker 2: Caleb Williams is a generational talent. That's just because Jaden

1739
01:50:00,960 --> 01:50:04,719
Speaker 2: Daniels is playing the way he is doesn't take anything

1740
01:50:04,760 --> 01:50:11,520
Speaker 2: away from CJ. So it's it's one of those situations

1741
01:50:11,560 --> 01:50:17,759
Speaker 2: where today was Caleb's day. It was just coming out party,

1742
01:50:18,640 --> 01:50:21,040
Speaker 2: even though they won the first game. It can't be

1743
01:50:21,120 --> 01:50:23,360
Speaker 2: your coming out party. You have eighty two yards passing

1744
01:50:23,400 --> 01:50:28,160
Speaker 2: as a quarterback in the NFL. So today he showed

1745
01:50:28,280 --> 01:50:31,599
Speaker 2: what he can do. He showed the type of player

1746
01:50:32,120 --> 01:50:36,640
Speaker 2: he can be. And I think that's amazing, and I

1747
01:50:36,640 --> 01:50:42,720
Speaker 2: think that's great for him. But Jaden Daniels has been miraculous,

1748
01:50:43,080 --> 01:50:48,519
Speaker 2: oh man, every week, oh man. And you don't have

1749
01:50:48,600 --> 01:50:53,640
Speaker 2: the completion percentage like he has and the ability to

1750
01:50:53,680 --> 01:50:56,639
Speaker 2: take care of the ball like he does. And now, look,

1751
01:50:56,720 --> 01:51:07,120
Speaker 2: it's not taking anything seriously away from Caleb. Caleb is

1752
01:51:07,320 --> 01:51:11,160
Speaker 2: he will be amazing, yep, But right now is Jade.

1753
01:51:13,600 --> 01:51:16,320
Speaker 1: I don't think there's any question about that. Ye're absolutely right.

1754
01:51:16,680 --> 01:51:18,280
Speaker 1: But the other thing, you know, what I thought was

1755
01:51:18,320 --> 01:51:21,760
Speaker 1: kind of achieved by Caleb today. It's actually a little

1756
01:51:21,760 --> 01:51:23,640
Speaker 1: tope board that you and I should probably play with

1757
01:51:23,680 --> 01:51:26,040
Speaker 1: every Sunday night for the rest of the year, which

1758
01:51:26,120 --> 01:51:32,160
Speaker 1: is the wide receiver frustration board, right because like, yeah, yeah,

1759
01:51:32,360 --> 01:51:34,760
Speaker 1: like we should we should have a little like top

1760
01:51:34,880 --> 01:51:38,960
Speaker 1: three on the wide receiver frustration board everybody in Miami

1761
01:51:39,960 --> 01:51:43,400
Speaker 1: exactly there. Tyreek Hill is definitely number one right now.

1762
01:51:44,479 --> 01:51:47,120
Speaker 1: Two Waddle will be number two. But you know who

1763
01:51:47,240 --> 01:51:51,840
Speaker 1: was floating around there the last few weeks is DJ Moore. Yeah,

1764
01:51:51,880 --> 01:51:54,280
Speaker 1: he had a few moments and he had to kind

1765
01:51:54,280 --> 01:51:57,639
Speaker 1: of apologize for for letting it be seen out there

1766
01:51:57,640 --> 01:51:59,519
Speaker 1: on the field. And we know how the wide receivers

1767
01:51:59,560 --> 01:52:01,519
Speaker 1: are built. And I actually give him a little bit

1768
01:52:01,560 --> 01:52:04,479
Speaker 1: of slack for this because it's such an odd position.

1769
01:52:04,560 --> 01:52:09,160
Speaker 1: You just you sort of have absolutely no control. I mean,

1770
01:52:09,200 --> 01:52:11,080
Speaker 1: you have some you have what you can do, but

1771
01:52:11,520 --> 01:52:15,720
Speaker 1: you're such a complimentary piece yet a central figure at

1772
01:52:15,760 --> 01:52:18,400
Speaker 1: the same time. And so that's what leads to that

1773
01:52:18,439 --> 01:52:21,160
Speaker 1: frustration because you're expected to do great things, but if

1774
01:52:21,160 --> 01:52:23,120
Speaker 1: the person isn't there to deliver the ball to you,

1775
01:52:23,120 --> 01:52:25,360
Speaker 1: you can't do great things. You can do it, you

1776
01:52:25,400 --> 01:52:28,320
Speaker 1: can't do it. And so Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle

1777
01:52:28,360 --> 01:52:32,600
Speaker 1: are going crazy and DJ Moore has been dealing with it.

1778
01:52:32,640 --> 01:52:36,040
Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson has been on that list so far this year.

1779
01:52:36,479 --> 01:52:39,559
Speaker 1: I don't know if Brandon Aiyuk has shown any of that,

1780
01:52:39,720 --> 01:52:44,320
Speaker 1: but I gotta feel like things have been summering there. Yeah,

1781
01:52:44,400 --> 01:52:48,000
Speaker 1: we should probably call this the Stefan Diggs board, just

1782
01:52:48,000 --> 01:52:51,479
Speaker 1: because it should be named after him. I haven't seen

1783
01:52:51,520 --> 01:52:55,519
Speaker 1: anything from him yet, but that's surprising, and I don't

1784
01:52:55,560 --> 01:52:58,880
Speaker 1: feel like it's sustainable. The fact that the other receiver

1785
01:52:59,040 --> 01:53:02,200
Speaker 1: on the Texans is like leading the world and receiving

1786
01:53:02,280 --> 01:53:05,040
Speaker 1: and getting us to talk about MVP. I just don't

1787
01:53:05,080 --> 01:53:07,920
Speaker 1: feel like that's gonna sit very well with Stefan. Who knows,

1788
01:53:07,920 --> 01:53:10,720
Speaker 1: Maybe now he'll get his turn, because I don't know

1789
01:53:10,720 --> 01:53:13,280
Speaker 1: if Nico's gonna miss time. And then obviously we've been

1790
01:53:13,280 --> 01:53:17,680
Speaker 1: talking about DeVante Adams tonight and Poster He's got to

1791
01:53:17,680 --> 01:53:22,719
Speaker 1: be very very high on the list as well. So anyway,

1792
01:53:23,000 --> 01:53:25,040
Speaker 1: Caleb kind of calmed that down for a week, and

1793
01:53:25,080 --> 01:53:26,040
Speaker 1: that's a very good thing.

1794
01:53:26,720 --> 01:53:31,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, he did, he did. He You know, he's going to,

1795
01:53:32,760 --> 01:53:38,120
Speaker 2: in my opinion, live up to expectations, all right. Everything

1796
01:53:38,200 --> 01:53:43,040
Speaker 2: about him says that the talent is there, that's obvious.

1797
01:53:44,040 --> 01:53:46,800
Speaker 2: The leadership is there, right, he's the same guy with

1798
01:53:47,040 --> 01:53:48,760
Speaker 2: you know, some people had a problem with him telling

1799
01:53:48,760 --> 01:53:52,519
Speaker 2: guys to clean up after themselves, you know, but the

1800
01:53:52,560 --> 01:53:56,880
Speaker 2: city loves him already. The city loves him already because

1801
01:53:56,880 --> 01:54:00,800
Speaker 2: he's put them in a position to compete. And as

1802
01:54:00,800 --> 01:54:02,840
Speaker 2: a fan, you only all you want to do is

1803
01:54:02,880 --> 01:54:06,760
Speaker 2: see your team go out there compete. And that's where

1804
01:54:06,760 --> 01:54:12,120
Speaker 2: they are. And you know it started with the second

1805
01:54:12,120 --> 01:54:16,440
Speaker 2: half of last year and and Justin Fields had them competing.

1806
01:54:18,520 --> 01:54:23,480
Speaker 2: They've revamped the team, brought more in, created a situation

1807
01:54:23,920 --> 01:54:28,400
Speaker 2: in an environment where you know, an expectation is now there.

1808
01:54:30,760 --> 01:54:37,280
Speaker 2: So look, both of these young men in Washington and

1809
01:54:37,320 --> 01:54:40,920
Speaker 2: in Chicago are doing exactly what they were brought in

1810
01:54:40,960 --> 01:54:41,240
Speaker 2: to do.

1811
01:54:42,040 --> 01:54:45,040
Speaker 1: Yep, yep. And both of them have a winning record

1812
01:54:45,120 --> 01:54:50,000
Speaker 1: yep after five weeks, which is impressive enough. Speaking of records.

1813
01:54:49,560 --> 01:54:51,480
Speaker 2: Bone Nicks too, don't forget about him.

1814
01:54:51,640 --> 01:54:56,560
Speaker 1: Bone Eggs winning record. Yeah. Absolutely. We shouldn't leave tonight

1815
01:54:56,600 --> 01:54:59,840
Speaker 1: with our congratulating the Jacksonville Jaguars. Every team in the

1816
01:55:00,080 --> 01:55:01,120
Speaker 1: NFL now has a win.
