Speaker 2: The Giants there, everybody's coming back. Colts, their owner Jim Irsaying,
Speaker 2: put out a statement, everybody is back. The Jacksonville Jaguars
Speaker 2: have fired Doug Peterson. Okay, all right, well we figured
Speaker 2: that that was going to happen, but I guess the
Speaker 2: biggest news giants keeping their staff, the Patriots after one
Speaker 2: year getting rid of girod Mayo. We'll talk a little
Speaker 2: bit more about that. Eight seven seven three DP Show
Speaker 2: operator Tyler sitting by. He'll get your phone calls. Best

Speaker 2: free shipping, Play the day, poll question, stat of the Day,
Speaker 2: all of that forthcoming. The Broncos are in, Bengals Dolphins out,
Speaker 2: The Buccaneers are in. The Falcons out and the Lions
Speaker 2: last night, thanks to their defense, have the number one
Speaker 2: seed in the NFC. That was the big surprise last night.
Speaker 2: I knew the Lions would score. The question is how
Speaker 2: many would they let the Vikings score? And they shut
Speaker 2: them down. They did a great job. And Chris collins
Speaker 2: Worth honey hinted at this. This is where you hear
Speaker 2: something in a production meeting on Friday or Saturday, where
Speaker 2: maybe Aaron Glenn, the defensive coordinator for the Lion, says, hey,
Speaker 2: we're bringing some heat. We're going to go after Sam Darnold.
Speaker 2: We're going to make him uncomfortable. You can't just sit
Speaker 2: back and let him have time because there are too
Speaker 2: good Because you know, collins Worth said that at the
Speaker 2: beginning he thought they were going to go after Sam Darnold,
Speaker 2: and they did, and they had ten quarterback hits last night.
Speaker 2: I was listening to Dan Orlovsky in the ESPN radio
Speaker 2: earlier and he said he thought that Sam Darnald left
Speaker 2: five touchdown passes out there on the field. So the
Speaker 2: Lions did get the win, they got the number one seed.
Speaker 2: You got an extra week with your players. Certainly that
Speaker 2: defense has been banged up, but give credit to that
Speaker 2: defense because they did put a lot of pressure on
Speaker 2: Sam Darnold. All Right, Seaton, what's pole questions? Start out
Speaker 2: the first hour? You got a couple of more surprising
Speaker 2: pole questions. Okay, uh, more surprising This is from PAULI.
Speaker 2: More surprising Broncos are in the playoffs or the Bengals
Speaker 2: are not. Well, Okay, I'm going to go back week one,
Speaker 2: and what did we say after the Bengals lost to
Speaker 2: the Patriots. I said, there's every team. Those teams don't
Speaker 2: make the playoffs. You can usually go back to one
Speaker 2: game and go, hmm, that one's gonna hurt you. And
Speaker 2: that's what I said after they lost to the Patriots.
Speaker 2: I sett on that Monday, and you're the Bengals. You're
Speaker 2: not Tom Brady's Patriots where you can use the first
Speaker 2: month of the season as the preseason. This is the problem.
Speaker 2: They treated that game like it was a preseason and
Speaker 2: the Patriots beating the Bengals in Cincinnati. But if you're
Speaker 2: going to lose your first three games, look, would I
Speaker 2: love to see the Bengals in Yes, I would, But
Speaker 2: they didn't deserve to be in. They played great at
Speaker 2: the end of the regular season. If this was college,
Speaker 2: we'd probably look at them like South Carolina. Man, they're
Speaker 2: on a roll. You don't want to face them. Well,
Speaker 2: this is in college. You lose your first three, you
Speaker 2: let the Patriots beat you. In Cincinnati, I would love
Speaker 2: to have had the Bengals in just esthetically to watch
Speaker 2: them play and Joe Burrow, Jamar Chase. But it Denver
Speaker 2: played better, more consistent, the defense was good, bo Nicks
Speaker 2: did a great job, and Sean Payton reclaimed his status
Speaker 2: as one of the great coaches in the game. But yeah,
Speaker 2: Denver to me was a better team. Cincinnati might have
Speaker 2: been a better story just for the overall picture of
Speaker 2: you don't want I don't think anybody say it, man,
Speaker 2: you don't want to face the Broncos. I would say that.
Speaker 2: I mean, you got to defense travels. This is a good,
Speaker 2: solid team. Now, did the Chiefs basically roll over? Yes
Speaker 2: they did, But I think they were a consistent team,
Speaker 2: a good team. Patrick's erten is you know, maybe he
Speaker 2: steals the defensive Player of the Year work and bow
Speaker 2: Knicks played really well, but you know that's one of
Speaker 2: those where hey, Buffalo and they get Denver. Well, I
Speaker 2: don't know if I when you get to this point,
Speaker 2: it's one game. Are the Bills better than Denver? Yes?
Speaker 2: But it's one game and that's all you're asking for.
Speaker 2: Give me a little bit of magic here, Fritzie. Congratulations,
Speaker 2: your Broncos are going to the playoffs.
Speaker 4: How about that thirty eight nothing against all the backups?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5: Are we convinced that the Bengals would have a much
Speaker 5: more challenge, much better chance of being the Bills than Denver?
Speaker 5: Are we comfortable saying that I wish it was the
Speaker 5: Bengals because that'll be a better game and Denver's going
Speaker 5: to get rolled?
Speaker 4: Is that what the average person thinks?
Speaker 2: I don't know. Why don't you go around announce the
Speaker 2: average person.
Speaker 4: I'm going to take a poll outside. I'm going to
Speaker 4: do a kind of walk around with a microphone.
Speaker 2: We have a lot of average people in here, just
Speaker 2: to ask everybody.
Speaker 6: The poll question is who would you rather have in
Speaker 6: the playoffs? The Bengals or the Broncos? Is that the question?
Speaker 4: Yeah? I think a lot.
Speaker 2: Who's more threatening?
Speaker 7: Right?
Speaker 4: Which would be a more competive The Bengals.
Speaker 2: Are more threatening. It's only because they have Joe Burrow
Speaker 2: and Jamar Chase. So you got the leading pets. When's
Speaker 2: the last time you had the leading passer yardage wise,
Speaker 2: passing touchdowns, you had I think the leading sack guy,
Speaker 2: and you had a receiver win the triple Crow. So
Speaker 2: Trey Hendrickson, I think he had fifteen sacks this year.
Speaker 2: Uh what was it, Paulie? He finished with seventeen and
Speaker 2: a half. Okay, so seventeen and a half. Quietly seventeen
Speaker 2: and a half. And then you have Joe Burrow and
Speaker 2: you have Jamar Chase, and then you throw in Ta Higgins.
Speaker 2: That's exciting. Denver doesn't have that. I mean that offense
Speaker 2: doesn't blow you away with name recognition. But I don't
Speaker 2: think Sean Payton cares about that. And uh, you know,
Speaker 2: I got a factor in Sean Payton with his ability
Speaker 2: to coach as well. Guest hud No, you gotta.
Speaker 5: Love Benito and certain And then you got Vele out
Speaker 5: of the blue is doing.
Speaker 4: Some stuff with Sutton. They got they got some weapons there.
Speaker 4: I didn't love the fact that they do.
Speaker 2: Those guys are on defense.
Speaker 4: I'm just talking about in general as far as people
Speaker 4: that are like, oh.
Speaker 2: No, but I was talking about offense. Fair enough, I
Speaker 2: was talking about Joe Burrow, Jamar Chase the fire pod.
Speaker 4: I'm just like a shocking.
Speaker 6: You know, usually refer to uh de facto players as weapons.
Speaker 2: I think when you don't have weapons on offense, you
Speaker 2: got weapons on deep.
Speaker 5: I just don't like the narrative because we love the
Speaker 5: word the narrative and oh, Cincinnati Buffalo would have been great.
Speaker 4: This is going to be the blowout. I forget this
Speaker 4: as we'll put the Bills into the digital player.
Speaker 2: Wait, wait, what are we doing right now? We're not
Speaker 2: going to do this the nobody once says nobody believed
Speaker 2: in us. We're not doing that. No, are you calling
Speaker 2: for the win in Buffalo?
Speaker 4: You know what?
Speaker 5: You put me on the spot. The Bills should win
Speaker 5: that game, they should win comfortably. But wait, you don't.
Speaker 5: I believe the Broncos one in one game. Anything is possible.
Speaker 5: Buffalo should win that game.
Speaker 2: By we know it's possible because they are in the game.
Speaker 2: You know what's not possible. The Bengals can't beat the Bills.
Speaker 2: I just checked.
Speaker 3: Yes, they can't beat them. Yes, the Bills are giving
Speaker 3: nine to the Broncos. I could check with Vegas on
Speaker 3: what the line would have been if the Bengals were in.
Speaker 4: The game, m I'd be curious about them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Bengals would probably be uh five point underdog maybe
Speaker 2: maybe something like that. But are we we or they?
Speaker 4: We are definitely we?
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, well, congratulations, it was a very good year.
Speaker 4: After they lost to the Charge in Bengals, it was
Speaker 4: more day. But then after what happened, Yester, we're back
Speaker 4: to wik.
Speaker 2: And you're not a front runner. By the way, one
Speaker 2: hundred and forty one games were decided by seven points
Speaker 2: or less. That's tied with twenty twenty two, the most
Speaker 2: in a season in NFL history. Woo Stall of a Day,
Speaker 2: Stan a day, stand outa day, stan outa day. This
Speaker 2: is the Style of the Day, brought to you by
Speaker 2: Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson finished with forty one touchdown passes four interceptions.
Speaker 2: That's never happened before in NFL history at least forty
Speaker 2: and more than five interceptions, and he may not win
Speaker 2: the MVP. The Lions they were extremely balanced, but not
Speaker 2: as balanced as the Bills. They're the first team to
Speaker 2: have at least thirty passing touchdowns and at least thirty
Speaker 2: rushing touchdowns in the same season. Never happened before. The
Speaker 2: Lions were one rushing touchdown short of becoming the second
Speaker 2: team to do so. I look at the Lions. You
Speaker 2: want to talk about being all in because you're gonna
Speaker 2: lose probably both your coordinators Aaron Glenn defensive coordinator, Ben
Speaker 2: Johnson offensive coordinator. You're all in. I talk about these
Speaker 2: windows of opportunity, like San Francisco's window. It might have closed,
Speaker 2: and it felt like it's wide open. You got a
Speaker 2: you know, mister irrelevant with that contract, You got your signing,
Speaker 2: everybody you're keeping everybody, Brandon Aiyuk, you got McCaffrey, Debo,
Speaker 2: Trent Williams, you got it bos. Everything's gonna work. You
Speaker 2: got a great coach GM and then and maybe you don't.
Speaker 2: And this is where you get that three to four
Speaker 2: year run and then all of a sudden it starts
Speaker 2: to slip away. Detroit, this is the year, this is
Speaker 2: the year. Considering everything you have now, I also look
Speaker 2: at this team that you got Hutchinson coming back, Jamiir
Speaker 2: Gibbs is wonderful on a rookie contract. You got Montgomery
Speaker 2: coming back. Golf is signed, Amon Ross, Saint Brown is signed,
Speaker 2: got a good tight end, you got a culture there
Speaker 2: with Dan Campbell, So this should extend for a couple
Speaker 2: of seasons. Should And then you got Buffalo that I
Speaker 2: thought their window of opportunity closed and now it just
Speaker 2: feels like this is a true solid, starless team except
Speaker 2: for the quarterback there. And I think that's been a
Speaker 2: benefit for them. They had two Pro Bowl players. I
Speaker 2: think that's a true testament to a team playing great football.
Speaker 8: Yes, And I think for a franchise like the Lions,
Speaker 8: all you need is one Super Bowl title. You don't
Speaker 8: need to go on a two to three year run.
Speaker 8: All you need is one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like the Cubs, you win all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: it's like you've changed the entire national outlook or viewpoint
Speaker 2: of the Lions. You've changed everything. Now it's not hey,
Speaker 2: I'm a Lions fan, It's I'm a Lions fan. All
Speaker 2: it takes is one? All Righty? So is that the
Speaker 2: poll question who would be more threatening in the playoffs?
Speaker 2: Seat and the Broncos of the Bengals.
Speaker 6: Yeah, we could do who would be more threatening? I
Speaker 6: kind of like, who would you want? But yeah, there's
Speaker 6: definitely going to be a Broncos versus Bengals poll question,
Speaker 6: for sure.
Speaker 2: But I don't want you. Oh woe is me? Nobody
Speaker 2: thought we'd be here, Todd. We can't do that because
Speaker 2: it's a great story. You didn't think they would be here,
Speaker 2: so you can't go. Nobody's giving us a jiation.
Speaker 4: That's fair.
Speaker 5: And most people thought they'd win four or five six
Speaker 5: games maximum quarterble.
Speaker 2: They played great, that defense was really good, and yes,
Speaker 2: did the Chiefs roll over? They did, But you know,
Speaker 2: I wouldn't have put it out of the realm of
Speaker 2: possibility that the Broncos would have beaten the Chiefs if
Speaker 2: they wanted to or trying to win that game.
Speaker 6: Yes, se So just so we're clear, Todd also thought
Speaker 6: that they wouldn't be there. Yes, this year, And while
Speaker 6: he doesn't like the narrative that we should just advance
Speaker 6: the Bills to the next round, he too thinks the
Speaker 6: Bills are going to win. Yes, despite the fact that
Speaker 6: he doesn't like that narrative, yes, that you should give
Speaker 6: the Broncos a chance, he thinks the Bills are going
Speaker 6: to advance.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the narrative is that they're going to
Speaker 5: get blown out and it's hard to predict the Broncos
Speaker 5: to win that game, but I think they'll keep it competitive.
Speaker 2: Okay, but you just were saying that nobody thought you
Speaker 2: guys could be there. Nobody's given you a chance. They'd
Speaker 2: rather have the Bengals. So you're feeding into all of.
Speaker 5: This because I and many saw something in the Broncos
Speaker 5: that we didn't think we would see during the course
Speaker 5: of the season.
Speaker 4: Who think the Bonnicks would have not gone?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 2: But you don't think they're no. You don't think they
Speaker 2: have a.
Speaker 4: Chance to win.
Speaker 2: But if I had million dollars on it and stuff,
Speaker 2: But they have a chance because they're playing the game.
Speaker 4: In one game, anything could happen.
Speaker 5: They almost beat the Chiefs and Mahomes the great Chiefs
Speaker 5: team trying to win the Retouit Bowls, and with blocked
Speaker 5: field goal and the last second.
Speaker 2: The only reason, Todd, you're the one under selling the Broncos.
Speaker 4: I don't like that everyone.
Speaker 5: I don't like that other people are undersund But they're
Speaker 5: all bumm that the Bengals game would have been a
Speaker 5: lot better and want to see Nicks.
Speaker 2: And it would and it would have been It would
Speaker 2: have been more interesting to have Joe Burrow and Jamar Chason.
Speaker 5: Maybe interesting, but not necessarily more competitive because it's so.
Speaker 2: Okay, make up your mind. If you're all in that,
Speaker 2: you're gonna win the bills. Okay, thank you.
Speaker 4: Twenty seven twenty three.
Speaker 2: It took me fourteen minutes to get there.
Speaker 6: Twenty seven to twenty three.
Speaker 8: The bill should be ten and a half point favorite. Yes, Marvin,
Speaker 8: that's that was a lot for the first segment to
Speaker 8: give me. Yeah, I can't work this hard, Tod not
Speaker 8: to start the waking a lot.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's only fifteen minutes into Monday.
Speaker 6: All week, all week Monday, Todd.
Speaker 2: You know, are we gonna hear this all week long?
Speaker 2: I'll settle there, all right, thank you? All right, let's
Speaker 2: take a break. We'll get phone calls coming up. Eight

Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers had four touchdown passes. He's the fifth player
Speaker 2: in NFL history with at least five hundred career regular
Speaker 2: season touchdown passes, and the second fastest to reach five hundred.
Speaker 2: Only Peyton Manning got there faster. As far as Aaron
Speaker 2: Rodgers playing next.
Speaker 1: Season, in your heart of hearts, do you think he'll
Speaker 1: be back with the Jets?
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know. I mean, I honestly don't know.
Speaker 11: Rich If I did, I don't know that i'd tell you,
Speaker 11: so I will say that I respect, but truthfully, I
Speaker 11: don't know. I'm looking forward to those conversations with Woody
Speaker 11: and Christopher and him and Phil and anybody else. You know,
Speaker 11: it feels good to be able to do some of
Speaker 11: the things last five or six weeks. I know I
Speaker 11: was capable of doing even at forty forty one. You
Speaker 11: either way, I won't be upset or offended whatever they
Speaker 11: decide to do, if they want to move on, if
Speaker 11: I still want to play, and if not, I'll let
Speaker 11: them know at some point if that's the case.
Speaker 2: Okay, I think the Jets will move on if they're
Speaker 2: going to try to bring in a legitimate head coach.
Speaker 2: That head coach doesn't want to walk into this situation.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't now you might find somebody who's willing to
Speaker 2: do it because they want to get the job. Aaron Glenn,
Speaker 2: the defensive coordinator with the Jets. I don't know if
Speaker 2: he's going to go, Hey, I'll take the job. But
Speaker 2: I don't want Aaron Rodgers. And it's weird to say
Speaker 2: you don't want Aaron Rodgers, but there's so much more
Speaker 2: that goes along with Aaron Rodgers. And if I'm coming
Speaker 2: in to take over the Jets, that's already a mountainous
Speaker 2: prospect of trying to turn them around. I mean, that's systemic.
Speaker 2: It's just been a horrible organization. All right. I need
Speaker 2: to hit the ground running. I can't be like, am
Speaker 2: I allowed to run? Am I walking? Am I crawling?
Speaker 2: Am I stuck in neutral? And you might have those
Speaker 2: feelings with Aaron Rodgers. If I would have told you
Speaker 2: back in August, Aaron Rodgers, Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes, Justin Herbert,
Speaker 2: and Jordan Love would throw fewer touchdown passes than bow Knicks,
Speaker 2: you would have made a lot of money. But that happened.
Speaker 2: Bo Nicks had more touchdown passes than those quarterbacks, so
Speaker 2: you got Rogers, Alan Mahomes, All Hall of famers, Justin
Speaker 2: Herbert and Jordan Love. Who knows, but bo Nicks had
Speaker 2: more touchdown passes. All right, we'll get phone calls coming up.
Speaker 2: You know, the Dolphins situation is a mess. We know
Speaker 2: the Jets situation is always a mess. The Dolphin situation,
Speaker 2: you know, they were a playoff team last year. TUA
Speaker 2: had a pretty good start as far as you know,
Speaker 2: people saying, all right, if they get weapons and they
Speaker 2: stay healthy and you hold your breath that he doesn't
Speaker 2: get another concussion, they can be dangerous in the playoffs. Well,
Speaker 2: they didn't get to the playoffs. They lost yesterday and
Speaker 2: at one point Tyreek Kill wanted out of the lineup.
Speaker 2: And now there was some back and forth after the game.
Speaker 2: Did he want out? Did his coach take him out?
Speaker 2: And they needed to get their story straight. Here's Tyreek
Speaker 2: Hill because I'm opening the door right, come out, bro.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 12: So it was a great player here, but you know,
Speaker 12: I at the end of the day, Bro, I got
Speaker 12: to do what's best for my career.
Speaker 4: And you know, because I'm too.
Speaker 2: Much of a competitor to be you.
Speaker 6: Know, just.
Speaker 2: Okay, it sounds like quite the team player. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 2: a competitor. You're a competitor for you, you know what,
Speaker 2: you had this opportunity, they featured you, and now you
Speaker 2: want out. Here is the head coach of the Dolphins,
Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel.
Speaker 13: I'm not going to put too much weight on second
Speaker 13: hand postgame disappointment statements. And we'll see how the next
Speaker 13: couple of days progress with those conversations with him, and.
Speaker 2: I yeah, i'd shopp him. See what you can get
Speaker 2: get him off the books. Can you get something back?
Speaker 2: What can you get back for him? Talented guy, but
Speaker 2: he's it feels like sometimes the second coming of Antonio Brown,
Speaker 2: where it feels like it's about him. Now he's not
Speaker 2: where Antonio Brown was. Hopefully nobody gets there, but Tyreek
Speaker 2: Hill still has some mileage. The question is what are
Speaker 2: you willing to give up? And it might be one
Speaker 2: of those addition by subtractions, which sounds pretty bizarre given
Speaker 2: his status. I mean, there are times when I watch
Speaker 2: he is uncoverable. He's unstoppable. But he's a guy that
Speaker 2: feels like you got to constantly be nurturing him. And
Speaker 2: it's tough enough to be a head coach. Offensive coordinator
Speaker 2: Mike McDaniel. You just can't go into each day, each
Speaker 2: game worried about somebody's perspective, team goals. Because Antonio Brown,
Speaker 2: we saw him. I mean, maybe he goes to the
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame like he had a five or six
Speaker 2: year run that was just unbelievable. But he was a selfish.
Speaker 2: But that kind of goes along with the territory there.
Speaker 2: Tyreek Hill. Sounds like he's going to be with another
Speaker 2: team next year. We'll get some phone calls here. The
Speaker 2: Gerrodmeo thing bothered me, you know, I was you give
Speaker 2: this guy a chance. He's been waiting for five years.
Speaker 2: He is a head coach in waiting, and you probably
Speaker 2: had a backroom deal that said to him, don't take
Speaker 2: another job, you will replace Bill Belichick. And I don't
Speaker 2: have any sources there. I don't know anything about the
Speaker 2: Patriots organization. I can just look at this and add
Speaker 2: some common sense. You tell him you got five years.
Speaker 2: Just wait when you know when Bill is done, then
Speaker 2: you'll be the head coach. Because Mike Rabel may come
Speaker 2: in and be the next head coach. He was available
Speaker 2: last year, Brian Flores was available last year. And then
Speaker 2: you win the game. Now you don't have the number
Speaker 2: one pick in the draft. If he lost the game,
Speaker 2: does he keep his job? He got them to play
Speaker 2: and they ended up winning. Now granted Buffalo wasn't really trying,
Speaker 2: but you win the game. It's like Lovey Smith a
Speaker 2: couple of years ago with the Texans. He won the game.
Speaker 2: They didn't get the number one pick. They ended up
Speaker 2: getting CJ. Stroun. But this situation one year for Gerrodmeo,
Speaker 2: I think it reflects poorly on the Craft family because
Speaker 2: you can blame Belichi for the last couple of years
Speaker 2: previous to this, Prior to this, This is on you
Speaker 2: and you found your quarterback. Usually you get that, you know,
Speaker 2: coach and quarterback. As we saw with the Texans, you know,
Speaker 2: you give them a little bit of time. What happened
Speaker 2: in one year that you didn't see happening because this
Speaker 2: was your handpicked guy five years. He waited, he watched,
Speaker 2: he learned. Belichick was his mentor. Then it felt like
Speaker 2: the relationship with Craft in Belichick went south. Maybe they
Speaker 2: chose Gerrod Mayo. Belichick sense that and then he was like, hey,
Speaker 2: I'm out of here. He's going to take over. Here
Speaker 2: is girod Mayo? Prior to being fired yesterday.
Speaker 12: Coaches are nothing without the players. I just told him
Speaker 12: that again. I just appreciate all of the effort. Also
Speaker 12: told him, look, today, it's all about the game. We'll
Speaker 12: have enough time here tomorrow and the next couple of
Speaker 12: days to address all the other thing. Point in time here,
Speaker 12: you know, I have my normal meeting with the Crafts
Speaker 12: and we'll see where it goes from there.
Speaker 2: Well, we know where it went from there. He didn't
Speaker 2: get that opportunity, probably met with the Crabs, and I'd
Speaker 2: love to have seen his reaction when you go in
Speaker 2: there and you're thinking, Okay, let's build on some things.
Speaker 2: Drake May is good. How about you guys spend some money.
Speaker 2: How about you get me some skilled position players. How
Speaker 2: about we do that. That'd be a great start. Because
Speaker 2: you watch that roster, you watch their games, Yikes, there's
Speaker 2: not much there. And Drake May didn't play yesterday. Joe
Speaker 2: Milton played pretty well. That was fun to see a
Speaker 2: great story there. But yeah, I'm watching and I just
Speaker 2: I was disappointed that you give somebody one year, one
Speaker 2: and done, and I thought the Crafts would treat him
Speaker 2: better than that. But you know, I don't know how
Speaker 2: he was inside. I don't have any sources there. I know,
Speaker 2: I'm only going with the optics here, and I don't
Speaker 2: he didn't do well in press conferences. It felt like
Speaker 2: he was a little too critical, and you know, these
Speaker 2: players hear that, and I don't know that factored in
Speaker 2: it all. We'll talk to Tom Kern a little bit
Speaker 2: later on. He'll have you know, some inside knowledge of this.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I was disappointed, surprised, felt bad for Drod Mayo.
Speaker 2: Did he do a good job? What did you expect?
Speaker 2: Would he ended up with the same record as Belichick?
Speaker 2: And like, okay, but you've like it felt like there's
Speaker 2: a little momentum there because you found your quarterback. But
Speaker 2: Drod Mayo has shown the door. The Colts are keeping everybody,
Speaker 2: The Giants are keeping anybody, everybody, The Jags and Patriots
Speaker 2: are moving on. Will somebody be fired in the next
Speaker 2: two and a half hours on this show? Prior to
Speaker 2: to the start of the show. Now, I'm not rooting
Speaker 2: for this, I'm just saying, will we have another coaching
Speaker 2: firing in the next two and a half hours? Every year,
Speaker 2: it feels like Monday morning when we're doing the show,
Speaker 2: somebody gets fired. The Jags obviously didn't get the press
Speaker 2: release that we sent out. Don't fire anybody prior to
Speaker 2: the show. Wait between nine and twelve Eastern, six to
Speaker 2: nine Pacific, but they jumped the gun with Doug Peterson.
Speaker 2: All right, let's get a couple of phone calls in.
Speaker 2: Here's we always do every Monday. Best and Worst of
Speaker 2: the weekend. Andy is back in Rhode Island. Good morning, Andy,
Speaker 2: how are you?
Speaker 14: Good morning, Dan Dennet Marvel my brother. I'm glad to
Speaker 14: hear y'all back today. I will say that my best
Speaker 14: of the weekend is going to be with all the
Speaker 14: players that reach their census. And my goodness, Lake Ed
Speaker 14: is on our final play a three million dollars payday
Speaker 14: and he definitely had a hell of a season. And
Speaker 14: that season was, you know, hanging out on line for
Speaker 14: Tampa Bay and you know my words, I was going
Speaker 14: to divert to Tyreek Hill. But I feel that with
Speaker 14: the Pages winning that game, dropping to fort in the draft,
Speaker 14: and also just letting Mao go within minutes after this
Speaker 14: press conference, is this very uneasy feeling for New England
Speaker 14: fan base and I can only wonder what's gonna happen
Speaker 14: going forward.
Speaker 2: Well, it feels like Mike Rabel's in the on deck
Speaker 2: circle here, or maybe Ben Johnson. I don't know. It
Speaker 2: feels like Aaron Glenn is probably going to get a job.
Speaker 2: What do the Raiders do? I felt all along that
Speaker 2: the Raiders that Antonio Pierce was won and done. And
Speaker 2: I'm not going to pin this on Tom Brady, but
Speaker 2: I do think Tom Brady's opinion now is a minority
Speaker 2: owner of the Raiders is going to be factored in
Speaker 2: of If I'm Mark Davis. Mark Davis's dad was a genius.
Speaker 2: Mark Davis is not like his father. You got Tom
Speaker 2: Brady coming in, so you say to Tom, make this better.
Speaker 2: What would you do? Now you have the sixth pick
Speaker 2: in the draft. Chances are your quarterbacks aren't going to
Speaker 2: be there. Shador Sanders and cam Ward will be taken
Speaker 2: by then. It feels like, do you go out and
Speaker 2: maybe get Sam Darnold? Do you kick the tires on
Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers for a one plus one? I'm just throwing
Speaker 2: out scenarios here, and if I'm Tom Brady, do I
Speaker 2: want Aaron Rodgers as the quarterback of the Raiders Now?
Speaker 2: I want Aaron Rodgers in a dome stadium, playing most
Speaker 2: of his game in a dome stadium. Although if I
Speaker 2: look around, you know, in the division, he's got to
Speaker 2: go to Kansas City, he's got to play in LA
Speaker 2: and then he's got to go to Denver. But he's
Speaker 2: got half his games that will be in a dome guaranteed.
Speaker 2: But do I want Aaron Rodgers? Does Aaron Rodgers want
Speaker 2: to play for the Raiders? So these are just you
Speaker 2: don't have a great group of free agent quarterbacks. Sam
Speaker 2: Darnold and Russell Wilson might be if Russ is going
Speaker 2: to be available. I mean, that's another tricky spot. If
Speaker 2: the Steelers lose again in the first round, they got Baltimore,
Speaker 2: what happens with Russell Wilson? Is Russell Wilson playing for
Speaker 2: his Pittsburgh career? Kind of feels that way. What if
Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin loses another opening round playoff game. No one
Speaker 2: talks about firing Mike Tomlin because Pittsburgh doesn't do that.
Speaker 2: But they haven't won an opening round game in a
Speaker 2: long long time. They're always relevant, they're always competitive, they
Speaker 2: always have a five hundred record, But at some point,
Speaker 2: do you say that's wonderful Mike, Like to have a
Speaker 2: playoff win. How about we get one of those that's
Speaker 2: one of those where you kind of live off the
Speaker 2: fumes of that one super Bowl that you won with
Speaker 2: Ben Roethlisberger. Is Russell Wilson playing for his job in Pittsburgh?
Speaker 2: I don't think Mike Tomlin is coaching for his job.
Speaker 2: But if he was a quarterback and didn't win a
Speaker 2: first round play Let's say a quarterback lost five or
Speaker 2: six first round playoff games, how would we feel about
Speaker 2: that quarterback? You know, Aaron Rodgers had a disastrous postseason career,
Speaker 2: Like if you look at some of those moments where
Speaker 2: they had home field advantage and you know that was
Speaker 2: a knock, that's you know, his resume will reflect that
Speaker 2: that he was sort of an average quarterback in the postseason.
Speaker 2: It did win the super Bowl, but kind of an
Speaker 2: average quarterback. But for Mike Tomlin and Russell and you're
Speaker 2: playing a team that you don't beat and you're playing
Speaker 2: them in Baltimore, well that's going to be spicy. You
Speaker 2: want to talk about a most must win game of
Speaker 2: the weekend way too early? I know, I know, I know,
Speaker 2: I know we usually do that on Friday. Most must
Speaker 2: win game of the weekend. Uh Shawn and Sacramento. Hi Sean,
Speaker 2: how are you?
Speaker 7: Yoh mango from another mother? And my brother's mine the
Speaker 7: board and then happen to hear y'all on a Monday.
Speaker 7: Best and worst actually best Bester and bested if y'all
Speaker 7: bear with me really quick, best my kams finally stringing
Speaker 7: together a couple of games. Hid Chrissy knocking these wins
Speaker 7: out like Rick Fox in the playoffs. Bester our Broncos
Speaker 7: for a team making it to the playoffs. Come on, Tyler,
Speaker 7: let's let's call, let's keep, Let's keep the bartis positive
Speaker 7: man from Sack to Brooklyn. You're already calling your shot
Speaker 7: against Buffalo. That is crazy work on a Monday. But
Speaker 7: I hear you, man, keep it going and best is
Speaker 7: so uh you know, because of my sports consumption. My
Speaker 7: wife and I got it's a little tips this week,
Speaker 7: so I pluged this weekend is to get a lot
Speaker 7: of honey to do things off my list, and I
Speaker 7: had time to go through the Dan Patrick catalog of
Speaker 7: audio books. Man I loved it. I laughed my butt
Speaker 7: off to the occasionally accurate adds of football, and man
Speaker 7: I laughed. I cried, I laughed some more to the
Speaker 7: big show with you and Chief Keith will lead to
Speaker 7: my question really quick? Then will we get a dan
Speaker 7: Patrick show audio book?
Speaker 2: Man?
Speaker 7: Those long format on like the movie version of your show,
Speaker 7: And I'd love to hear the origin story of Fritzy,
Speaker 7: the tie, the backlash behind the rich Eisen cutting due
Speaker 7: to tie constraints, and what's the backstory behind the bathroom
Speaker 7: confessional and why is that gone? Now We've got to
Speaker 7: get that, man, give it to the dan Patrick nation.
Speaker 2: Dang, he's up, Sean. That's a lot. We did the confessional,
Speaker 2: but that's when I was giving the dan Ets an
Speaker 2: opportunity to say something without any repercussions. They could go
Speaker 2: in and they have sixty seconds at the top of
Speaker 2: each hour, and it was just sort of a you
Speaker 2: know what it was. It confidential, but you were going
Speaker 2: in there and you could say it and then I
Speaker 2: wouldn't necessarily know what you had to say. But yes,
Speaker 2: don that's because.
Speaker 5: The anonymous suggestion box was shot down. Yeah, we want
Speaker 5: to put a name to the feelings that we have.
Speaker 2: Yes, but you were going into a confessional. If you
Speaker 2: grew up in the Catholic Church, you know, you go
Speaker 2: in there and you talk to the priest about your sins.
Speaker 2: But this was a chance for the dan Nets to
Speaker 2: get something off their chest if they wanted to. But
Speaker 2: now they get the opportunity here. They get to talk
Speaker 2: whenever they want to talk. So this is sort of
Speaker 2: a confessional. All right, let me take a break. We
Speaker 2: got our play of the day coming up next, more
Speaker 2: of your phone calls as well more on the coaching
Speaker 2: situations with the NFL. Albert Breer, the Monday Morning Quarterback,
Speaker 2: will join us coming up a little bit later on
Speaker 2: top of the hour Back.
Speaker 1: After this, be sure to catch the live edition of
Speaker 1: The Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six
Speaker 1: am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio the iHeartRadio wapp.
Speaker 2: Oh my God. The play of the day, Twitter, Lipsyde
Speaker 2: got it. This is the play on the day.
Speaker 4: Check this out.
Speaker 1: Nix with a playfake now rolls to his right bowe,

Speaker 1: not once, but twice.
Speaker 2: That's courtesy of the Broncos Radio Network. Fritzy's broncos Play
Speaker 2: the day brought to you by tire rack dot com,
Speaker 2: the official tire expert of the program. Go to tire
Speaker 2: rack dot com slash Dan try the Tire Decision Guide.
Speaker 2: See the full lineup of Bridgestone tires special offers, free
Speaker 2: road hazard protection, mobile tire installation, tireract dot com Wait
Speaker 2: tire Buying should be watching a little bit of the
Speaker 2: Golden Globes. Last night. Our buddy Adam Sandler was there.
Speaker 2: He was up for Best Stand Up Routine or Special.
Speaker 2: He did not win, and I did text him during
Speaker 2: because Sandman is there on his phone, so I'm like,
Speaker 2: what are you doing there? And he said, I'm up
Speaker 2: for an award And then when he didn't win, and
Speaker 2: then I text him back and I said, are you
Speaker 2: leaving now? And he goes, no, You know, he's with
Speaker 2: his wife, date night, the whole thing there, but he
Speaker 2: was dressed up. He had to go kicking and screaming.
Speaker 2: It's like the last thing he wanted to do. Did
Speaker 2: you see where the guy who was in succession had
Speaker 2: a green like cap on. I don't know what those
Speaker 2: are bucketing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Jeremy Strong, Yeah, he had almost like a kangole
Speaker 3: type hat and velvet green jacket.
Speaker 2: What was going on with that? He is known as
Speaker 2: a quirky guy, okay, but he was in every shot
Speaker 2: because when you know they were up there presenting, you
Speaker 2: could see him in the background. But I thought Nicki
Speaker 2: Glazer did a good job. Opening monologue was fun. You know.
Speaker 2: It's it's not like rick Ricky Gervais, who was going
Speaker 2: for the jugular like she was just going to kind of,
Speaker 2: you know, tap you a little bit here, just poke
Speaker 2: you a prodya a little bit. Ricky Gervais was a guillotine.
Speaker 2: She was more water torture.
Speaker 6: Yes, there's a funny moment with Adam Sandler when Nicky
Speaker 6: Glazer is doing like one of her monologues and she's like,
Speaker 6: Timothy shallow May, that sounds like something that Adam Sandler
Speaker 6: would have made up or whatever. She's like, say it
Speaker 6: helped me out, and he goes a shadow May.
Speaker 2: Really, m.
Speaker 6: That's really funny.
Speaker 2: I couldn't help now. Normally, when Timothy shallow May is
Speaker 2: on camera, I can't take my eyes off of him.
Speaker 2: But when they had him on camera and he's next
Speaker 2: to his girlfriend Kylie Jenner, who I think had a
Speaker 2: dress on last night, I think, but she was spilling.
Speaker 2: Like if they said, oh, somebody spilled something on the table,
Speaker 2: it would have been Kylie Jenner's I got a spell
Speaker 2: over here. Yes, Paulie. So he's a two time Golden
Speaker 2: Globe with yep just last night, yes, DoD.
Speaker 5: That must have been quite a challenge for Nicki glazing,
Speaker 5: knowing how runchy her comedy is, to do something that
Speaker 5: she knows she can't go there and to just have
Speaker 5: to poke a little bit after what she did with
Speaker 5: Tom Brady and the roasting that she does drop.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you adapt. I mean, it's just a kind
Speaker 2: of smart approach for her. She knew you can't get away.
Speaker 2: But Glenn Close dropped a I think at F bomb
Speaker 2: when she was up there. It's like, if you said,
Speaker 2: who's going to drop an F bomb up here? Glenn
Speaker 2: Close probably wouldn't have been the person I would have picked. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Pauline to.
Speaker 3: Me Moore, who we love on this show. That was
Speaker 3: our first career acting award. She won a Golden Globe
Speaker 3: last night.
Speaker 2: M good for her. Yeah, we love her and nice
Speaker 2: see her up there. Yeah, she wanted fantasy Fantasy football
Speaker 2: advice from me.
Speaker 6: That was awesome.
Speaker 2: That was years ago.
Speaker 6: It's like one of the coolest things ever.
Speaker 2: Yes, she gave me her number and she wanted fantasy advice.
Speaker 2: And she was in a league with her husband, Ashton Kutcher,
Speaker 2: and they were in the car. That's when I called
Speaker 2: Ashton Kutcher soft and he couldn't believe that I would
Speaker 2: call him soft. Wait did he call me soft? But yeah,
Speaker 2: I had to me Moore's phone number, and she would
Speaker 2: text and ask me about fantasy football situation, Todd, we
Speaker 2: needed to get to me more beat.
Speaker 5: I was gonna say, that's a lifetime achievement one right there,
Speaker 5: that she just gave you her phone like that.
Speaker 4: Who could say that? Very few people in the world.
Speaker 2: I never told my wife. I had to mean Moore's
Speaker 2: phone number, because you know, if I said, hey, she
Speaker 2: just wants fantasy advice on oh really football football, fantasy football?
Speaker 2: Hun AnyWho? Andrew in Washington, Andrew, welcome back, Good.
Speaker 15: Morning, Dan, Danet's thanks for taking my call. There's no
Speaker 15: following up Demi Moore wanting fantasy advice for you, but
Speaker 15: I'll try best and worst of the WEEKND My worst
Speaker 15: is the Chiefs doing load management so that fritzeeds Broncos
Speaker 15: can get into the playoffs and we don't get to
Speaker 15: seat Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase in that story, because
Speaker 15: that Cincinnati story would have been great to go into
Speaker 15: Buffalo and see what they could do against Josh Allen.
Speaker 15: My best is that Bryce Young of my Panther would
Speaker 15: becoming the first Panther QB with three passing and two
Speaker 15: rushing tds in a game to beat the Dirty Birds
Speaker 15: of Atlanta. So that was my best and worst my stat.
Speaker 15: I got it from Sunday Night Football last night. I
Speaker 15: don't know if you saw this. I was kind of
Speaker 15: brought in that by it. But seventy six percent of
Speaker 15: Super Bowls have had a number one seed since nineteen
Speaker 15: ninety and the Minnesota Vikings are now the first seed,
Speaker 15: which only two fifth seeds have ever made it to
Speaker 15: the Super Bowl and both won, the New York Giants
Speaker 15: in twenty two thousand and seven and Tampa Bay in
Speaker 15: twenty twenty.
Speaker 2: Stat of the Day, stat of the Day, that beast
Speaker 2: stat of the Day's stat of the day. Here comes
Speaker 2: that what stat of the day brought to you by
Speaker 2: Penny America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick show.
Speaker 2: Is Sam Darnold playing for his Minnesota future opening week
Speaker 2: of the playoffs? If they're out, they bow out. He did,
Speaker 2: he banked a lot of good will this year. Didn't
Speaker 2: have a good weekend though. No, No, his offensive line
Speaker 2: didn't have a good weekend either. He missed a lot
Speaker 2: of open receivers. Pauli's still all in on Sam Darnold.
Speaker 2: He's not gonna let go. When he falls in love
Speaker 2: with the quarterback, he stays in love. Yes, Paul, I
Speaker 2: don't necessarily love him. I love his situation. Mm hmm
Speaker 2: are you changing the narrative here? Then it felt like
Speaker 2: a yeah, what's the pronoun here between you and Fritzi?
Speaker 2: I'm still wei in You're we we we we. I
Speaker 2: wonder about that though, when you think about all the
Speaker 2: goodwill that he banked and now you have this game
Speaker 2: coming up this weekend, where you go it could all
Speaker 2: go away? But fourteen wins now, you're I don't know,
Speaker 2: going to be traveling going to the Rams? Yikes? All right?
Speaker 2: Albert Breer Monday Morning Quarterback. Any other coaching changes? Why
Speaker 2: did the Patriots move on from Gerrodmeo after one season?
Speaker 2: A few things? Talk to him about more of your
Speaker 2: phone calls as well. Best and worst of the weekend,
Speaker 2: just getting started. It's our one Fritzy Seaton, Marv Paula,
Speaker 2: yours truly hour two right after this
