Packers won Super 9 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 2: Bowl forty five after the twenty ten season. He then 10 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 2: coached the Cowboys for five more seasons from twenty twenty 11 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 2: to twenty twenty four. McCarthy becomes just the fourth Steelers 12 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 2: head coach in the last fifty eight years. There are 13 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 2: now four head coach openings left, the Bills, the Browns, 14 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 2: the Cardinals, and the Raiders. ESPN reports that the Raiders 15 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: today interviewed former Giants head coach Brian Daball for their 16 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: head coaching job NBA. The Memphis Grizzlies announced today that 17 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 2: John Morant will miss at least three weeks because of 18 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 2: a sprained Ulmer collateral ligament. It is left elbow. I'm 19 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 2: Isaac lah and cron. 20 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 3: I have to have better stop. From the beginning, Jonas Knocks, 21 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,959 Speaker 3: you thought you knew me, You didn't know a thing 22 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 3: about me. 23 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 1: He's crazier than it else. Wrecked that guy, Jonas Knocks, 24 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: you heard me the brain some darkness is lighting up 25 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 1: your speakers to establish an alibi for the day. Now 26 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: live from the Fox Sports Radio studios, here's Jonas Knox. 27 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 3: Yep, okay, I'll be part of this world. So apparently 28 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 3: there's a lot of people out there that know more 29 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 3: than somebody who really good at something does. Apparently that's 30 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 3: the latest in the world of football. We'll get into 31 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 3: that for you coming up here in just a couple 32 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 3: of moments from now, Jonas Knox, Fox Sports Radio. You 33 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 3: can find this show as always on the iHeartRadio app. 34 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 3: You can find us on hundreds of affiliates all across 35 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 3: the country and wherever you are making us a part 36 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 3: of your Saturday. If you're listening on the podcast, we 37 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 3: appreciate you doing so. But live, we will be taking 38 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 3: you all the way up until four pm Eastern time, 39 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 3: one o'clock Pacific, And we have got news out of 40 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 3: the National Football League where the Pittsburgh Steelers have found 41 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 3: their next head coach after moving on after all those 42 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 3: years with Mike Tomlin and deciding, you know what, it's 43 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 3: time to go our separate ways. The Pittsburgh Steelers are 44 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: hiring Mike McCarthy as their head coach, as announced and 45 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 3: reported on a short time ago. So Mike McCarthy is 46 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 3: back in the NFL and he will be the head 47 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:07,679 Speaker 3: coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now, obviously there's a personal 48 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 3: connection there. Mike McCarthy is a Pittsburgh native. I believe 49 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 3: his dad was a firefighter. They owned a bar in town. 50 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 3: He grew up rooting for the Steelers. He was a 51 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 3: huge fan of Chuck Noll and the Steelers dynasty and 52 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 3: everything that came along with it. So from that point 53 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 3: of view, you look at it, you go, all right, well, 54 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 3: clearly there's a connection there. And who knows, maybe this 55 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 3: would entice Aaron Rodgers to want to run it back 56 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 3: for another year because of his relationship with Mike McCarthy 57 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 3: in all the years they spent together in Green Bay, 58 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 3: won a Super Bowl together, all of that, So maybe 59 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 3: there could be a connection there, and Aaron Rodgers comes 60 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 3: back for at least one more year. He decides to 61 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 3: walk away. But the part I get a kickout of, 62 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 3: though all right, this is great, the part I get 63 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 3: a kick out of is the instant reaction from people 64 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 3: who see the higher because the overwhelming reaction that I 65 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 3: have seen is kind of a meh, underwhelming, Like it's 66 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 3: just kind of an underwhelming hire. Mike McCarthy's an underwhelming 67 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 3: hire the Pittsburgh Steelers. What are you doing questioning this? 68 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 3: Questioning that? And I look at it and I go, 69 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 3: I don't know. There's two things that I'm looking at here. 70 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 3: You got the Pittsburgh Steelers and their track record of 71 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 3: success when it comes to coaches, and you've got Mike 72 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 3: McCarthy and his track record of success as a head 73 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 3: coach last I checked. Both are pretty solid. Yet for 74 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 3: some reason we are to believe from Joe Blow on 75 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 3: social media that, oh, this is an underwhelming hire. I 76 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 3: don't know whether or not this works out, but here's 77 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 3: what I know, if we're just basing it on information, 78 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh Steelers identify head coaches better than anybody in 79 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 3: the NFL, and it's not even close. They've had four 80 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 3: since the sixties, now four. Mike McCarthy's the fourth coach 81 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 3: they've had since the sixties, the nineteen sixties, the Browns 82 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 3: and the Jets and the Raiders have had four head 83 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 3: coaches in the last twenty minutes. But what, you know, 84 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 3: what are the Steelers doing? What are they doing? What's 85 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 3: going on at Pittsburgh? 86 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 4: Why? 87 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 3: Why the higher why would you make them? I mean, 88 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 3: I mean, do the Steelers really think this thing through. 89 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 3: I'm going to wait and reserve judgment on the Pittsburgh 90 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 3: Steelers until they fail at finding a head coach, and 91 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 3: they haven't done that yet. So if they've identified that 92 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy's the guy for the job, they normally go 93 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 3: with a younger coach with a defensive minded head coach, 94 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 3: and they're going with an older guy and an offensive mind. 95 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 3: He listen. I get it. I understand the concerns, but 96 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 3: I think they've earned the right, They've earned the benefit 97 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,119 Speaker 3: of the doubt. And as far as Mike McCarthy goes, 98 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 3: I know that people want to label him as whatever 99 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 3: you want to label him, and I think a lot 100 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 3: of that comes with the chaosity was dealing with in 101 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 3: Dallas with Jerry Jones and that whole fiasco. Let's keep 102 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 3: in mind, Mike McCarthy is top fifteen all time in 103 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 3: wins in the NFL, top fifteen. I mean, if you 104 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 3: want to look at me, all, well, what about the playoffs. Okay, 105 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 3: so he's got a five hundred playoff record. I get 106 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,239 Speaker 3: news for you. Don Schule is barely over five hundred 107 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 3: in the postseason. He's won a super Bowl, he's in 108 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 3: rarefied air. It's not like the guy sucks. It's not 109 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 3: like you haven't seen Mike McCarthy win a bunch of 110 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 3: games as a coach in the NFL before. But I 111 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 3: think because of how things ended in Dallas, it was 112 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 3: sort of chaotic. Dallas wanted him back. They just butchered 113 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 3: the negotiations, and Mike McCarthy was like, whatever, man, do 114 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 3: you think Dallas preferred Brian Schottenheimer over Mike McCarthy. Does 115 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 3: everybody remember how that went? They were trying to get 116 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 3: a deal done. Mike McCarthy finally just decided, all right, 117 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 3: this isn't happening, this isn't working. Let's move on. And 118 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 3: then they settle on Brian Schottenheimer. So you've got an 119 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 3: organization who does this thing better than anybody, and a 120 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 3: coach who does that thing better than majority, and yet 121 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 3: we're gonna stand on the outside and question what's going 122 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 3: on here? Do they know what they're doing? They know, 123 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm gonna give them both the benefit 124 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 3: of the doubt. I think they've earned that right based 125 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 3: on their track record. And the Pittsburgh Steelers have got 126 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 3: their guy and now we get to see how it 127 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 3: all plays out. Mike McCarthy, brand, head coach of the 128 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,239 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh Steelers. Jonas Knox with you here on Fox Sports Radio. 129 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 3: You can get me on x at the Jonas Knox 130 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 3: and you can follow along on Instagram at Jonas Knox Show. 131 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 3: All right, speaking of head coaches, some people were interested, surprised, 132 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 3: intrigued by the concept of Philip Rivers interviewing with the 133 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 3: Buffalo Bills yesterday, and if I have the days correct, 134 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 3: either he interviewed yesterday or he's going to be interviewing 135 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 3: today like whatever. But there's a lot of people that 136 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 3: look at that and said, wow, Philip Rivers, that's an interesting, 137 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 3: interesting concept. I mean, he was coaching high school ball 138 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 3: and then he came back out and it was a 139 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 3: fun conversation. He was playing for the Colts and actually 140 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 3: played pretty well, all things considered, and so you're looking 141 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 3: at it that and you're going wow, But Philip Rivers 142 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 3: the Bills are interviewing him too, and I look at 143 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 3: that and I say, why are you surprised? Did you 144 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 3: not see the circus tent in Orchard Park earlier this 145 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 3: week where their owners stepped up and got his facts 146 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 3: wrong and said, wow, listen our GM, our GM here. 147 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 3: He wasn't the guy that wanted Keon Coleman. It was 148 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 3: the coaching staff, and upon further review, that was actually incorrect. 149 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 3: It was actually the GM on multiple occasions saying how 150 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 3: much he wanted Keon Coleman, the owner talking about the 151 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 3: call and talking about Josh Allen and his decision to 152 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,959 Speaker 3: fire Sean McDermott. And it wasn't you know, he doesn't 153 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 3: have a Super Bowl or bust mandate for coaches there 154 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 3: yet if you look at it, so what if you 155 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 3: get to the postseason but don't win a Super Bowl, 156 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 3: you're not going to be fired. But didn't Sean McDermott. 157 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 3: It's a circus. That's a circus tent. That's what that is. 158 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 3: And I said this before, what Terry Pegoula and the 159 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 3: buffer flow Bills did earlier this week was show you 160 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 3: what it would look like if Josh Allen played for 161 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 3: the Jets. That's what it would look like, because that 162 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:15,319 Speaker 3: was a Jets move. That whole thing was a fiasco. 163 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 3: But that's what you would expect when you go to 164 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 3: the circus. You go to the circus, are you thinking 165 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 3: you're gonna see normal people? Like you go to a circus? 166 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 3: Like it's just normal. You got you got a woman 167 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 3: walking around, she's got a flower vase around her waist. 168 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 3: You got a guy juggling fire bowling pins on a unicycle. 169 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 3: You got tigers jumping up and down, an elephant riding 170 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 3: a big wheel. You got some guy walking around with 171 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 3: giant testicles and he's got him labeled Saturn and Jupiter. 172 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 3: But like, oh but hey boy, this is crazy. What 173 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 3: are you expect? It's a circus, that's a circus tent. 174 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:09,200 Speaker 3: Of course they're gonna interview Philip Rivers. Why wouldn't they? 175 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 3: I mean, like who else? That's what you would expect 176 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 3: from an organization like that, And that was on display 177 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 3: earlier this week. So when I see the news and 178 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 3: I go, wait, Philip Rivers, Uh, you know what that 179 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 3: tracks yeah, that dog hunts. That does make some sense 180 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 3: because based on what we saw out of Orchard Park 181 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 3: earlier this week, based on what we saw from the 182 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 3: Bills earlier this week, that's what you can expect, and 183 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 3: that's what you shouldn't be surprised by whenever it pops 184 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 3: up anytime in the near future, because they pulled back 185 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 3: the curtain and you realized, oh, that's what's happening. Just 186 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 3: peek through the tent, see what's going on into there. 187 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 3: You're gonna see some oddities and weird stuff. And the 188 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 3: Buffalo Bills presented you another one yesterday with the announcement 189 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 3: that Philip Rivers is gonna interview as the head coach 190 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 3: of the Bills Jonas Knox here Fox Sports Radio Get 191 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 3: me on x again at the Jonas Knox follow along 192 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 3: on Instagram at Jonas Knox Show as we take you 193 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 3: again live all the way up until four pm Eastern time, 194 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 3: one o'clock specific now.

But up next, somebody's really really upset, they're 199 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 3: really bothered, they're really annoyed with how dirty things have 200 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 3: gotten in the world of football, and we're going to 201 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 3: tell you why they too shouldn't be surprised at all. 202 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 3: Here the outrage. Next here on FSR, Jonas is counted today. 203 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 3: Jonas Knox Fox Sports Radio coming up and we will 204 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 3: call it a little over ten minutes from now we 205 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 3: are going to have an honest discussion about getting to 206 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 3: know some things they hadn't seen in quite some time 207 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 3: in the world of sports. That'll be yours again, coming 208 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 3: up here a little over ten minutes from now here 209 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 3: on FSR. So I was thinking about this as we 210 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 3: were as we went to break the thing about if 211 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 3: you're just tuning in. By the way, Mike McCarthy is 212 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 3: the brand new head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. It 213 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,319 Speaker 3: was announced a short time ago, so he's going to 214 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 3: get the gig, and I do wonder based just looking 215 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 3: at the Mike McCarthy Aaron Rodgers dynamic. One of the 216 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 3: things that you did find out about from Rogers during 217 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 3: the course of this year is that when he got 218 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 3: to a place like Pittsburgh, the reason why there's even 219 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 3: a conversation about him wanting to come back or even 220 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 3: having interest in coming back and wanting to go to 221 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 3: the Steelers is because of what he went through with 222 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 3: the Jets, Like the Jets are such a fiasco themselves 223 00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 3: that Rogers is looking around going dude, So it's like 224 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 3: this other places, it's not just Green Bay. And I 225 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 3: do almost wonder if that is part of the appeal 226 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 3: for Mike McCarthy, not only the fact that he gets 227 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 3: to go back home and coach the team he grew 228 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 3: up rooting for and coach the place that he grew 229 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 3: up in, but also this from the standpoint of he 230 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 3: went through a lot of crap in Dallas. I'm as 231 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 3: big a Jerry Jones fan as anybody, but Jerry Jones 232 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 3: will put you through the ring as a coach, like 233 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 3: he just will. And he's doing two hits a week 234 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 3: on local radio. He's saying absurd and it just got 235 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 3: to the point where Mike McCarthy, towards the end in 236 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 3: Dallas is just like okay, dude, Like all right, sure, yeah, Hey, 237 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 3: what did Jerry say in an interview on the fan? Okay? Cool? 238 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 3: Got it? Yeah, okay, understood, And there is an appeal, 239 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 3: and I think Rogers kind of alluded to this. Pittsburgh 240 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 3: and Green Bay are very similar in their structure, the 241 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 3: way they operate, just the history, the tradition, sort of 242 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 3: a mom and pop feel, and you can say whatever 243 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 3: you want and feel whatever you want about the mom 244 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 3: and pop aspect of both organizations, but I think both. 245 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 3: I do wonder if Mike McCarthy's going to find himself 246 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 3: in a spot to where he goes, you know, this 247 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 3: is kind of cool. That's the questions about the game. 248 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 3: After I answer questions about the comments owner and all 249 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 3: the other things that are going on within the organization. 250 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 3: Not that they didn't have success, not that Jerry Jones 251 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 3: isn't successful, not that the Dallas Cowboys are anywhere close 252 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 3: to what the New York Jets are, even though the 253 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 3: Jets have been in a conference championship game more recent 254 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 3: than the Cowboys have. Forget all that, but just from 255 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 3: the standpoint of dude, there's a lot of noise and 256 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 3: a lot of crap those guys are having to talk 257 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 3: about and hear about that. I think they're probably going 258 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 3: to enjoy Rogers did this year. They're probably going to 259 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 3: enjoy not having to deal with all that stuff when 260 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 3: they get to Pittsburgh. And apparently Mike McCarthy is our guy, 261 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 3: and maybe those two will be united after all these years, 262 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 3: or reunited Jonas Knox here on Fox Sports Radio.

All right, Dabo Swinny, the head 271 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 3: coach of the Clemson Tigers. He has got a red ass. 272 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 3: Now here's a little of the backstory. Luke Farelli is 273 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 3: a linebacker in which entered the portal from cal signed, 274 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 3: arrived to Clemson, and then told Clemson he was committed. 275 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 3: He got a car, an apartment, he was in classes 276 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 3: like all the works, signed his deal, everything was fine, 277 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden, entered the portal on 278 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 3: the last day and is now at Ole Miss And 279 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 3: now Clemson is kind of screwed. At the linebacker position 280 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 3: because they thought they had everything figured out. But this 281 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,919 Speaker 3: guy undered the portal on the last day and bailed 282 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,679 Speaker 3: on the program. And we've seen that before. And he 283 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 3: guy listened, I mean it happens all that, you know, 284 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 3: like this is this is called. It happens all the time. 285 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 3: The problem was that there was apparently, according to Dabo Swinney, 286 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 3: some blatant evidences, evidence and episodes of tampering with this 287 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 3: whole situation. So let's listen to Dabo Swinney discuss in 288 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 3: detail the tampering that ole Miss committed to get Luke 289 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 3: Farelli the linebacker, to decommit from Clemson, go back into 290 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 3: the portal and go to the Rebels. 291 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 5: Soorrels met with Luke face to face in his office, 292 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 5: and Luke communicated that Pete texted him on Wednesday morning, 293 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,359 Speaker 5: the head coach at ole Miss, when he was in 294 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 5: his eight am class, and he said the text message said, 295 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 5: I know you're signed. 296 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 3: What's the buyout? 297 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 5: Coach Golding also texted him a picture of a one 298 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 5: million dollar contract. Luke also mentioned to Jordan that Coach 299 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 5: Golding had had Trinidad Chambliss call him from his phone 300 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 5: and that coach Golding was there continuing to talk on 301 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 5: his phone to push him to re enter the transfer portal. 302 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 5: He also said that Jackson Dark had reached out and 303 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 5: called him. 304 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 3: There's tampering and then there's blatant tampering. You know. 305 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 5: Tampering one oh one is when you're talking to kids 306 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 5: who aren't in the portal. Tampering two oh one is 307 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 5: when you've already negotiated the deal with the kids not 308 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 5: in the portal. Tampering three oh one is when you 309 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 5: got a kid who's gone in the portal, signed somewhere 310 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 5: and move there, gone to classes, and you still you're 311 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 5: texting them while they're in class. That's like a whole 312 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 5: other level of tampering and it's total hypocrisy. 313 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:05,360 Speaker 3: Hey yeah, Dabo, welcome to the mud brother. Hey look, 314 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 3: you know, man, it's a dirty game out there all right, 315 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 3: Like this stuff is happening all the time. There are 316 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 3: examples of this all the time. There's probably examples of 317 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 3: this we never hear about it. Like there's stories about 318 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 3: coaches going on the field after games and trying to 319 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 3: recruit and offer players money on the field after games 320 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 3: that they just competed against. This stuff is happening everywhere, 321 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 3: and Dabo's swimty. I'll give him credit. He's been pretty 322 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 3: consistent about this when Nil popped up a couple of 323 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,479 Speaker 3: years ago. He's been one of the most vocal about it. 324 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 3: But it just is now to the point to where 325 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,679 Speaker 3: you got choices to make, all right, There are choices 326 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 3: to make you either accept the terms and conditions of 327 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 3: the mud that you were swimming in, or you could 328 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 3: just get out of it, you just leave.

Who 663 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:53,319 Speaker 3: gives a rip like let Lebron's agent go on the 664 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 3: podcast and and and groove the messaging more like what like? 665 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 3: But this is what the NBA's turned into. And this 666 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:03,879 Speaker 3: is again why remind people enjoy the football games, even 667 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 3: the bad ones while you got it, because this is 668 00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 3: what's on the other side of things. This this whole 669 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:12,799 Speaker 3: crap that the NBA rolls out yearly. At about this 670 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 3: time next. 671 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 4: Naomi Osaka, one of the greatest women's tennis players, has 672 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:23,760 Speaker 4: officially withdrawn from the Australian Open due to an ab injury. 673 00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 3: Do you care, Oh God, no, no, don't care. Look, 674 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,439 Speaker 3: I'll say this, The Australian Open is cool because it's 675 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 3: on at all hours of the day, but all hours 676 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 3: of the day, which is tremendous, especially if you're somebody 677 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,879 Speaker 3: like me who does a radio show during the week 678 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 3: from three to six am Pacific time and you're starving 679 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 3: for a live sporting event to cover. Not that we 680 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,600 Speaker 3: would ever talk about the Australian Open on our show 681 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 3: because we like, god, what's that word, what's the ratings? 682 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 3: We like that, So we would never talk about the 683 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 3: Australian Open on our show. And so I do like 684 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,919 Speaker 3: the fact though, that there is an option there if 685 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,239 Speaker 3: you wanted to. It's like these golf events that take 686 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 3: place overseas or you know, like that is fun. But no, 687 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,560 Speaker 3: ultimately this does nothing for me. Last I heard she 688 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,440 Speaker 3: had some beef on the court with somebody and and 689 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 3: there was some oohs and ah's and the press conference afterward. 690 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 3: I just it feels like there's better things we could 691 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 3: be talking about in tennis. Maybe they're not other than 692 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:27,399 Speaker 3: this stuff, but hey, teach their own and you can 693 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 3: gamble on it, so maybe it's something we'll take a 694 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:30,880 Speaker 3: look at later on the weekend. 695 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 4: Next decemberdy is going to be a big time for 696 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:38,320 Speaker 4: movies with Dune and Doomsday coming out. They're supposed to 697 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 4: come out on the same day, and people are starting 698 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:41,440 Speaker 4: to call it Dune's Day. 699 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:46,799 Speaker 3: Do you care? Yes, And here's a lie. Now if 700 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:49,319 Speaker 3: you may not, Shay, you may not be familiar with this. 701 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 1: I know. 702 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 3: Chris Purfett remembers this. There was nobody more excited about 703 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 3: the Dune popcorn bucket than bo Benz. 704 00:40:58,440 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 6: The worm. 705 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 3: The worm, Yeah, the worm, and it looked like something else. 706 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 6: It looked like something a worm goes into. 707 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was very creepy. I did not understand it 708 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 3: until both sent the picture. It was like thirty dollars 709 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 3: and it looked it looks like something that, you know, 710 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 3: some weirdo would have hidden in their top drawer next 711 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,319 Speaker 3: to their bed and they wouldn't bring out unless there 712 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 3: was nobody around. But if it's back, it's back, and 713 00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 3: everybody enjoyed the popcorn. You know, a very interesting strategy 714 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 3: and approach by one team in the NFL. You're gonna 715 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 3: hear it detailed coming up here in just a couple 716 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,840 Speaker 3: of moments from now.

It is the first 723 00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 3: weekend really without a normally we're just inundated with football. 724 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:05,360 Speaker 3: We got conference championship Sunday. We're gonna take a closer 725 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 3: look at that coming up later on in the show. 726 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 3: But you know, college football is not here anymore. 727 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:10,240 Speaker 6: It's gone. 728 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 3: You know, you got Dabo Swinny bitching and moaning about 729 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 3: you know, tampering and people agreeing to contracts and leaving 730 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 3: and litigation and just all the messy stuff that comes 731 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 3: along with it. But you know, we've got college hoops 732 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 3: on and the NBA and that whole song and dance, 733 00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 3: and then you got coaching news because the Pittsburgh Steelers 734 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 3: have found their next head coach. Mike McCarthy is the guy. 735 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy will be the brand new head coach of 736 00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh Steelers. By the way, impromptu, Chris Purphett, do 737 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:52,720 Speaker 3: we have the Pittsburgh Steelers Poka song in the system? 738 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,919 Speaker 3: Do we still have that? Because that just feels appropriate. Second, Yeah, 739 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 3: that feels real appropriate when discussing anything Pittsburgh, especially when 740 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 3: you consider the history of Mike McCarthy. Would you consider 741 00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy This is the first thing I thought of. 742 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy is back home, all right? What expected to 743 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,759 Speaker 3: agree to a deal to become the next head coach 744 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 3: of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Guy grew up in the area. 745 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 3: His dad, I believe, was a firefighter. May want to 746 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 3: double check that some people reported last week his dad 747 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:27,719 Speaker 3: was a cop, then he's a firefighter. I think they 748 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 3: owned a bar locally in town there in Pittsburgh growing up. 749 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 3: But Mike McCarthy grew up a huge fan of the Steelers, 750 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 3: loved Chuck Knowle and the Steeler legacy and that whole 751 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,360 Speaker 3: dynasty they had going on in the seventies. And so 752 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy's back. He's going to be the head coach 753 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 3: of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Now, there are people, as I 754 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,959 Speaker 3: mentioned earlier in the show, that are sort of discrediting 755 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 3: the higher. There are people that look at at the 756 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 3: higher and go, oh, what are you doing to me? 757 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 3: There's no difference between him and Mike Tomlin. Well, first 758 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 3: of all, Mike Tomlin's not there anymore. Okay, like he's 759 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 3: not there, he's gone, and so you needed to have 760 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 3: another head coach. Mike Tomlin chose to leave. That was 761 00:44:08,239 --> 00:44:10,760 Speaker 3: more his choice that you know. Art Rudy the second 762 00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:14,520 Speaker 3: spoke about that, you know, last week and discussing Mike 763 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 3: Tomlin's departure, and so Mike McCarthy's the guy, and so 764 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 3: people criticizing it and saying, well, it's you know, kind 765 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 3: of a meh, like we were expecting something more. Who 766 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 3: but who did you want? I don't know about you, 767 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 3: but you could do a lot worse than Mike McCarthy, 768 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 3: who's won over sixty percent of his games, and not 769 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 3: just in one stop. The guy's done it for close 770 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 3: to twenty years. He's won a Super Bowl, he's been 771 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 3: in the playoffs a bunch of times. Like he's done 772 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,880 Speaker 3: really good things in the NFL. He's, you know, one 773 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 3: of the more successful head coaches, top fifteen all time 774 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,399 Speaker 3: and wins like Mike McCarthy's done a really good job 775 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 3: as a coach, but I think he kind of gets 776 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 3: labeled as the well, you know so with the Cowboys, 777 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 3: and I mean the Cowboys are a circus like that's 778 00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 3: you know, a bit of a clown show there at 779 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 3: times with Jerry Jones in the way you operate. So 780 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 3: I look at the iron, I go, look, man, you 781 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,000 Speaker 3: could do a hell of a lot worse than Mike McCarthy. 782 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:16,000 Speaker 3: If you are underwhelmed and questioning the higher I would 783 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 3: question you because the one thing that we do know 784 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,080 Speaker 3: is the Pittsburgh Steelers are better at finding head coaches 785 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:25,160 Speaker 3: than anybody else in the NFL since nineteen sixty nine, 786 00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 3: they've had four. Mike McCarthy's the fourth. They've done okay, 787 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:33,240 Speaker 3: So I'm going to trust and give them the benefit 788 00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 3: of the doubt that they know what they're doing. And 789 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 3: I'm going to give Mike McCarthy the benefit of the 790 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 3: doubt that he knows what he's doing because he's done 791 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:42,879 Speaker 3: it at a really high level for a really long time. Now. 792 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:46,240 Speaker 3: The Aaron Rodgers aspect of this whole thing, maybe Rogers 793 00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 3: comes back, maybe he doesn't. I personally think the Steelers 794 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 3: they need work there. It feels like the rosters is 795 00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:55,759 Speaker 3: getting older and whatnot. And maybe Mike McCarthy's not going 796 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 3: to be there for twenty something years, like you know 797 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 3: some of these other coaches had, Like Mike Tomlin, maybe 798 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 3: he's only there for a short time. But if he 799 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 3: continues stability and they continue to get to the postseason, 800 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:10,160 Speaker 3: maybe they'll win a game. It's like, come on, man, 801 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 3: like you could do a lot worse if they would 802 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 3: have hired somebody else. You could question their inexperience. A 803 00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,760 Speaker 3: lot of people question Mike Tomlin when he got the job. 804 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,319 Speaker 3: I'm sure there were people that question Bill Cower when 805 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,480 Speaker 3: he got the job. Mike McCarthy is a fine hire, 806 00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 3: and now we get to wait and see what he 807 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 3: brings to that organization. Because it's not like a full teardown. 808 00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 3: They need some tweaks. They've got to get younger at 809 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 3: some positions. I do find the Aaron Rodgers part of 810 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 3: this whole thing interesting because they have worked together in 811 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 3: the past, and maybe Rogers, who has said this before 812 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 3: and this has been reported on, would be open to 813 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:53,360 Speaker 3: being a veteran guy in Pittsburgh one more time, and 814 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,719 Speaker 3: maybe they draft and start trying to develop a younger 815 00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:59,280 Speaker 3: quarterback behind him. So congratulations Mike McCarthy. The Pittsburgh Steelers 816 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:01,959 Speaker 3: found the guy. Now, well, that's a team that knows 817 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:06,400 Speaker 3: how to find head coaches. Clearly discussed and detailed just 818 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 3: a moment ago. They know how to find head coaches. 819 00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:16,919 Speaker 3: And then there's the Browns. The Cleveland Browns have taken 820 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:23,240 Speaker 3: a different approach, all right. The Cleveland Browns have decided 821 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:29,200 Speaker 3: to really go off script when it comes to the 822 00:47:29,239 --> 00:47:34,120 Speaker 3: interview process with coaches. How so you ask Tom Pellisero 823 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:37,120 Speaker 3: of the NFL Network was talking with Rich Eisen and 824 00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 3: he detailed the Cleveland Browns hiring process. 825 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 8: The Browns search process and interview process, which they have 826 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:49,239 Speaker 8: run a number of times, is unlike any other in 827 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:53,279 Speaker 8: the NFL, and it plays to certain types of candidates. 828 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 8: They are a data driven operation in Cleveland, and so 829 00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 8: they spend an extraordinary amount of time. I'm gathering data 830 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 8: on their coaching candidates. You're talking about taking a personality test. 831 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:11,920 Speaker 8: You're talking about writing an essay, You're talking about completing 832 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 8: homework assignments, going into both the first and the second 833 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 8: rounds of interviews. 834 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:26,919 Speaker 3: Wait, what what is this bumble? What do we doing here? 835 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,279 Speaker 3: What are you on? Plenty of fish? Hey, what's your 836 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 3: personality test? Let's see if we match. You know what 837 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:36,960 Speaker 3: they should do when the Browns, when the Browns finally 838 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 3: do fight a coach, they should just have like a 839 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:40,959 Speaker 3: little b emoji pop up on the screen so people 840 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 3: know that somebody matched with the Overnight. That's what they 841 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:47,440 Speaker 3: should do. What are we talking about here? And then 842 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 3: you start to look at you go, oh, that's why 843 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 3: guys are canceling their interviews. Oh, we're wondering, like, hey, 844 00:48:56,560 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 3: why jesse Minter cancels interview? And then he gets hired 845 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 3: by the Rave and he's like, oh, well, he must 846 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 3: have you know, must have already had the Ravens job. No, 847 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 3: he just didn't want to see whether or not he 848 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:11,879 Speaker 3: matched now that that that's all that was. Hey, why 849 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 3: did uh, why did Mike McDaniel h cancel his interview 850 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:17,359 Speaker 3: with the Browns? God? Oh man, he must really want 851 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:22,239 Speaker 3: to be a coordinator again. No, no, no, he just 852 00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:24,080 Speaker 3: didn't want to wake up in the morning and find 853 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 3: out that he matched up with some weirdo on his 854 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:33,960 Speaker 3: dating app. It's just the whole thing, and the whole 855 00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 3: Browns detailed approach to this because they are data driven 856 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 3: and they are this and there and they're that. Like 857 00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 3: I don't even know if the Browns have officially had 858 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:47,360 Speaker 3: an interview, Like they've talked to guys, they've put together 859 00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:50,799 Speaker 3: details and homework assignments and everything that goes along with it. 860 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:56,560 Speaker 3: But that's that's why when you see the usual suspects 861 00:49:58,320 --> 00:50:00,520 Speaker 3: where they are in the NFL, it's because they're doing 862 00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 3: the usual things. Now you could say, well, this is 863 00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 3: a different approach in it, and it's but I made 864 00:50:05,600 --> 00:50:09,920 Speaker 3: the point last week. Kevin Stefanski was one of the 865 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:15,880 Speaker 3: most sought after coaches of the entire coaching process. So 866 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:20,120 Speaker 3: was John Harbaugh. But Kevin Stefanski was one of those 867 00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:25,280 Speaker 3: guys that everybody universally agreed, Hey, the second he becomes available, 868 00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:27,840 Speaker 3: he'll have a job in fifteen minutes. And he pretty 869 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 3: much did, and now he's the head coach of the Falcons. 870 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:36,200 Speaker 3: He was in the building there. Just think about it. 871 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 3: You had a keeper like you had somebody in the building. 872 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,799 Speaker 3: And the Browns like, no, no, no, we're gonna take 873 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 3: our chances. We're gonna take our chances with Farmers Only 874 00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:50,359 Speaker 3: dot com or whatever that site was called, and we're 875 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:52,799 Speaker 3: gonna go ahead and set up a personality type and 876 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 3: we're gonna see who we match with. And all of 877 00:50:55,680 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 3: a sudden, something pops up the screw on the screen 878 00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:03,200 Speaker 3: the next morning and it's some assistant from the Jaguars 879 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,000 Speaker 3: and he's holding a pitchfork. That's where we're at with 880 00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:10,399 Speaker 3: the Browns. This is the Cleveland Browns. That's where you're at. 881 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 3: So for anybody that is questioning the Pittsburgh Steelers hiring 882 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:20,800 Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy as coach and sort of calling it a mehh, 883 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:24,239 Speaker 3: just say, look at the Browns, dude, Look at that. 884 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:28,760 Speaker 3: Listen to that that's how some organizations do it. So again, 885 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:30,880 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go ahead and give the benefit of the 886 00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:34,960 Speaker 3: doubt to the Pittsburgh Steelers, who have done this better 887 00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:38,600 Speaker 3: than anybody in the NFL, more so than give credit 888 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 3: to the Cleveland Browns who are making candidates take homework 889 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:45,640 Speaker 3: with them and then come back the next day to 890 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 3: see whether or not they qualify. For that awful situation, 891 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 3: let's go live to our I have a thought on 892 00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:54,319 Speaker 3: homework insider Chris Purfett for The Latest Chris. 893 00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:56,279 Speaker 9: Yeah, I didn't think I would ever get to use 894 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:59,200 Speaker 9: this knowledge, but I one time during an interview, they 895 00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:03,000 Speaker 9: had me do homework as well. It was back when 896 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:04,840 Speaker 9: I was like applying for jobs, and I think it 897 00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:09,120 Speaker 9: was with like basically a web design firm, and it 898 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:11,919 Speaker 9: was an assignment that I kind of bolted at because 899 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:15,399 Speaker 9: it was like redesigning an entire web page. Oh god, 900 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 9: as basically like free labor for them. But it's like, yeah, 901 00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:19,920 Speaker 9: we want to see how you do on this as 902 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:21,880 Speaker 9: a test we give to everyone. I'm like, you know 903 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:25,840 Speaker 9: what I have offers waiting from other from from some 904 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:29,799 Speaker 9: other outlets. I'm going to pass on spending the six 905 00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:32,600 Speaker 9: hours of my life doing this for you. And I 906 00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:37,600 Speaker 9: cannot imagine this happening at a level of NFL head 907 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 9: coaching interviews, where it's like, here's essays you've got to write. 908 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 6: It's like you're applying for a job. Not not the 909 00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:45,400 Speaker 6: gr it's just. 910 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 3: Like the whole it's, well, we're going to be different. 911 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:51,400 Speaker 3: You know, we're gonna we're gonna bring in like data 912 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,840 Speaker 3: driven analysts. Okay, that's fine, that all that is awesome, 913 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:58,799 Speaker 3: But I'm trying to be the next head coach of 914 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:01,960 Speaker 3: your team who just got rid of a coach that 915 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:04,640 Speaker 3: a lot of teams would would have loved to have 916 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:05,359 Speaker 3: had as their coach. 917 00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:07,880 Speaker 6: Jumped all over Stefanski to bring in to Atlanta. 918 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:11,200 Speaker 3: The Falcons couldn't wait to hire Kevin Stefanski. And it's 919 00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 3: not like he's got a solidified quarterback situation there. It's 920 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:16,960 Speaker 3: not like Kevin Stefanski walks in and it goes, oh, man, 921 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 3: well we got the quarterback of the future. 922 00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:20,439 Speaker 6: They don't have the first round pick this year. 923 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:24,279 Speaker 3: Michael Pennis Junior. We don't even know when he's going 924 00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:26,360 Speaker 3: to be healthy enough. Kirk Cousins, we don't even know 925 00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:28,000 Speaker 3: if he's going to be back because of what they 926 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:31,080 Speaker 3: redid with this contract. So yet like the whole But again, 927 00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:34,000 Speaker 3: what are the Steelers know? You know, like, listen, what 928 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 3: do they know? Everybody else has got it figured out. 929 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,360 Speaker 3: It just doesn't make any sense. By the way, I 930 00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:42,359 Speaker 3: got a question for the Cleveland Browns. All right, and 931 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:47,239 Speaker 3: you listen up, and you listen up. Good.

I mean, we started out 1010 00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,360 Speaker 3: with the Pittsburgh Steelers hiring Mike McCarthy. I like the hire. Look, 1011 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,240 Speaker 3: I think it's a fun story. Whether it works out, 1012 00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:53,280 Speaker 3: who knows. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, whatever do I care? 1013 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:54,360 Speaker 3: You see my picks? 1014 00:58:55,720 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 6: Oh? 1015 00:58:56,040 --> 00:59:00,320 Speaker 3: Hey, you got something wrong? Ooh, I'm all one of 1016 00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 3: these softies that gets all uptight, that gets all all 1017 00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 3: sensitive because I got something wrong. And then I got 1018 00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:11,800 Speaker 3: to like block people on social media. So what I suck? 1019 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:15,600 Speaker 3: I suck is what it is. Hey, keep firing, baby, 1020 00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:19,439 Speaker 3: What do I care? You throw five picks? What's wrong 1021 00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 3: with another one? Who cares? But like we were talking 1022 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:24,960 Speaker 3: about some of these moves, and you know, I like 1023 00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:27,440 Speaker 3: to hire Mike McCarthy goes back to Pittsburgh. He's the 1024 00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 3: head coach of the Steelers now has announced earlier and 1025 00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:33,160 Speaker 3: talked about earlier in the show. The Buffalo Bills are 1026 00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:37,640 Speaker 3: interviewing Philip Rivers. Weird, but they're interviewing Philip Rivers because 1027 00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:39,840 Speaker 3: you know, we got to see behind the curtain and 1028 00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:42,640 Speaker 3: see who's operating things there in Buffalo earlier this week, 1029 00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:44,800 Speaker 3: and it wasn't a nice site. Did not look good. 1030 00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 3: Cleveland Browns are doing personality tests in order to identify 1031 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:52,280 Speaker 3: their next head coach. That's a real story, real story. 1032 00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 3: There's weird things that teams do. There's just weird stuff 1033 00:59:57,360 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 3: that goes on in the NFL. One of the teams 1034 01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:04,920 Speaker 3: that's near the top, if not the top when it 1035 01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:07,960 Speaker 3: comes to weird or dysfunctional or whatever you want to 1036 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:10,240 Speaker 3: call it, is the New York Jets. And believe it 1037 01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:12,760 Speaker 3: or not, the Jets are going to be on display 1038 01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:17,000 Speaker 3: this weekend. The Jets dysfunction will be on display this 1039 01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:24,760 Speaker 3: weekend in the conference championship games. Because it is amazing 1040 01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:27,240 Speaker 3: to me, Like you could just go to either game. 1041 01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:33,960 Speaker 3: Like we'll start like on the NFC side, Sam Donald, 1042 01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:39,840 Speaker 3: as it stands right now, right Sam Donald, believe it 1043 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:44,160 Speaker 3: or not, Sam Donald, as it stands right now, is 1044 01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:51,320 Speaker 3: the favorite to win a Super Bowl. So think about that. 1045 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 3: Sam Donald is the favorite to win a Super Bowl. 1046 01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:04,400 Speaker 3: And the Jets were like, we don't need that in 1047 01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:08,880 Speaker 3: our building, you know what I mean. Like the Vikings, 1048 01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:11,880 Speaker 3: I can kind of get the Vikings. I get Vikings 1049 01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:13,440 Speaker 3: had had a little, you know, kind of a plan. 1050 01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 3: There was a plan there for the Vikings, like you know, 1051 01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:18,840 Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy. Now the plan didn't work and they you know, 1052 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:20,680 Speaker 3: there's probably some regret there and they're going to create 1053 01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:24,240 Speaker 3: some competition and all that stuff. But like the Vikings, 1054 01:01:24,560 --> 01:01:28,400 Speaker 3: I kind of understand there was a plan, and I 1055 01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:30,320 Speaker 3: still think the Vikings are going to be a good 1056 01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:32,000 Speaker 3: team next year. They just had a down year, but 1057 01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 3: they weren't even that bad. They just had issues. And 1058 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:39,960 Speaker 3: JJ McCarthy couldn't sty healthy. The Jets. I don't. I 1059 01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:43,240 Speaker 3: don't understand. I don't, I don't. I'm sorry, I don't 1060 01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:47,520 Speaker 3: get it. I really don't get it. And Sam Darnold 1061 01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 3: was there and they drafted him, and it just like, nah, 1062 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:53,680 Speaker 3: we're we're good here, We're all good. Thank you though, 1063 01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:57,520 Speaker 3: thank you for your time. All right. The guy's the 1064 01:01:57,600 --> 01:02:00,440 Speaker 3: favorite to win the Super Bowl, which just goes to 1065 01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:03,800 Speaker 3: show you that if you get in a place where 1066 01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:07,360 Speaker 3: they can either build around you or play to your strengths, 1067 01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:10,880 Speaker 3: a place that has actually run somewhat well, look at 1068 01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:14,480 Speaker 3: what can happen. And you could say, well, it's just 1069 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:18,080 Speaker 3: a Seattle thing. No, it's not. He was good with 1070 01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:20,479 Speaker 3: the Vikings. You can get caught up in the last 1071 01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:22,120 Speaker 3: two games, and I agree, he didn't look good the 1072 01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:25,800 Speaker 3: last two games. He looked bad in the finale against Detroit, 1073 01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:28,120 Speaker 3: which cost him the one seed or cost him a 1074 01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 3: higher seed, and then he looked bad in the playoff 1075 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:35,000 Speaker 3: game against the Rams. I totally understood fair enough. And 1076 01:02:35,040 --> 01:02:38,360 Speaker 3: I'm not trying to confuse Sam Donald with a Josh 1077 01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:40,560 Speaker 3: Allen or a Burrow or a Mahomes or any of 1078 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:42,360 Speaker 3: these guys that are at the top of the list 1079 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:45,880 Speaker 3: of whatever quarterback ranking you've got. But Sam Donald played 1080 01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:49,040 Speaker 3: really well for the Vikings. He was in MVP conversations 1081 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:51,760 Speaker 3: like It's why there was a real debate about do 1082 01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 3: you really want to move on from him because he 1083 01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:56,280 Speaker 3: played really well in that system. So we've got multiple 1084 01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:58,840 Speaker 3: years in a row that Sam Donald has played well, 1085 01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:01,320 Speaker 3: played good enough to be starting quarterback, and as it 1086 01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 3: stands right now, is the favorite to win the Super Bowl. 1087 01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:06,840 Speaker 3: Kind of a bad look for the Jets. You know 1088 01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:10,200 Speaker 3: what else is a bad look for the Jets. The 1089 01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:16,160 Speaker 3: fact that the new England Patriots are the biggest road 1090 01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:25,760 Speaker 3: favorite in a conference championship game in NFL history. And 1091 01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:29,440 Speaker 3: yes it's against Jared Stidham because Bo Nicks broke his 1092 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:32,640 Speaker 3: ankle last week. All that is true, Here's what else 1093 01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:41,600 Speaker 3: is true. The Patriots were awful last year. They're favored 1094 01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:47,720 Speaker 3: to go to a super Bowl with a game to play. 1095 01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:53,000 Speaker 3: How did they figure it out that quick? And the 1096 01:03:53,120 --> 01:04:00,560 Speaker 3: Jets haven't like same division? You know how many people 1097 01:04:00,560 --> 01:04:02,640 Speaker 3: in that division like, you know how many Jets fans 1098 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:08,360 Speaker 3: because I still remember that Belichick and Brady and Belichick's 1099 01:04:08,400 --> 01:04:11,200 Speaker 3: dominant over the Jets. He won like fifteen straight games, 1100 01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:14,040 Speaker 3: and then you know, the Jets beat him his final 1101 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:18,560 Speaker 3: appearance as Patriots coach against the Jets, And you know 1102 01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:21,240 Speaker 3: how many Jets fans like, Oh, got rid of them? Man, 1103 01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,320 Speaker 3: Remember when the Patriots were good. We don't have to 1104 01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:28,960 Speaker 3: deal that crap anymore. And here they are in their 1105 01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:36,760 Speaker 3: sixteenth conference championship game. They're a game away from going 1106 01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:40,120 Speaker 3: to a super Bowl and projected to go there based 1107 01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:45,160 Speaker 3: on the betting odds. So you've got one team in 1108 01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:51,200 Speaker 3: the same division who was awful a year ago with 1109 01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:57,000 Speaker 3: a brand new head coach, a young quarterback and some 1110 01:04:57,120 --> 01:05:00,680 Speaker 3: draft picks like Traveon Henderson and and these guys that 1111 01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:04,760 Speaker 3: they've drafted that have performed. And you got the team 1112 01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:08,040 Speaker 3: in the same division who's had all these opportunities, all 1113 01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:11,760 Speaker 3: these high draft picks, and one of them is playing 1114 01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:15,000 Speaker 3: in the other conference championship game. You know what I mean, Like, 1115 01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:16,880 Speaker 3: if you're a Jets fanny, you're not looking at this 1116 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:18,600 Speaker 3: weekend going what the hell? 1117 01:05:18,640 --> 01:05:18,840 Speaker 8: Man? 1118 01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:25,520 Speaker 3: Like? What really? Like? Really kind of a bad look, 1119 01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:28,280 Speaker 3: but at least you know, the Jets can feel like 1120 01:05:28,280 --> 01:05:31,240 Speaker 3: they're somewhat represented this weekend in a conference championship game, 1121 01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:32,720 Speaker 3: because it feels like it's going to be a long 1122 01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:35,360 Speaker 3: time before they are again. At the Jonas Knox on 1123 01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:38,080 Speaker 3: x at Jonas Knox Show on Instagram and again you 1124 01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:41,160 Speaker 3: can hang out with us as always on the iHeartRadio app. Right, 1125 01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:43,560 Speaker 3: it's coming up next here we are going to continue 1126 01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:46,120 Speaker 3: on the discussion.

The 1134 01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:09,840 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers announced that they have verbally agreed are former 1135 01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:13,120 Speaker 2: Packers and Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy as their new 1136 01:06:13,160 --> 01:06:16,640 Speaker 2: head coach.

Finally, Jonas, we have an additional well, Mike 1150 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:06,240 Speaker 2: McCarthy biographical update, as you've been discussing. McCarthy, of course, 1151 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:10,320 Speaker 2: is from Pittsburgh born and raised. He hails from the 1152 01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:16,640 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh neighborhood of Greenfield. His father ran an establishment called 1153 01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:20,960 Speaker 2: Joe McCarthy's Bar in Grill, and one of Mike's jobs 1154 01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:27,200 Speaker 2: while growing up was to clean the restrooms on Sunday mornings. 1155 01:07:27,600 --> 01:07:32,840 Speaker 2: McCarthy told the Dallas Morning News back in twenty twenty one, 1156 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:38,600 Speaker 2: and I quote, the accuracy isn't as good on Saturday night. 1157 01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:42,280 Speaker 2: I can tell you that I dreaded walking down those 1158 01:07:42,320 --> 01:07:46,600 Speaker 2: steps every Sunday morning. The smell got stronger with every 1159 01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:47,880 Speaker 2: step I took. 1160 01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:49,960 Speaker 6: Unquote. Now, Jonas, I hope you're not. 1161 01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:54,280 Speaker 2: Offended by this, but I'm estimating that you have a 1162 01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:59,920 Speaker 2: certain measure of experience being in bars late on st 1163 01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:06,360 Speaker 2: Saturday nights. Can you offer additional context to what McCarthy described, well, I. 1164 01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:10,440 Speaker 3: Mean, for on the on the patron front, there's a 1165 01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 3: thing that's done at the urinal that I that has 1166 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,759 Speaker 3: just never made sense to me. I don't understand people 1167 01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:20,240 Speaker 3: that start, guys that use the urnal and then flush 1168 01:08:20,320 --> 01:08:23,240 Speaker 3: midway through. Oh, I didn't know that was a I 1169 01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:26,479 Speaker 3: didn't know that. It's really strange. I don't get it. 1170 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:28,160 Speaker 3: I don't know if it's because it's like, oh, look, 1171 01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:30,160 Speaker 3: let's pike a waterfall. It just it feels like that 1172 01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:32,439 Speaker 3: would be something you would do afterwards. But apparently that's 1173 01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:34,840 Speaker 3: a thing I don't know. I've seen. I've seen guys 1174 01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:35,120 Speaker 3: do it. 1175 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:35,880 Speaker 5: Uh. 1176 01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:39,520 Speaker 3: Now, on the worker side of it, I cleaned bathrooms 1177 01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:43,200 Speaker 3: at a bunch of different spots. I can tell you 1178 01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:48,640 Speaker 3: this unequivocally, and it's not even close. The women's restroom 1179 01:08:49,160 --> 01:08:53,240 Speaker 3: is way dirtier than the men's and it's not even close. 1180 01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:56,840 Speaker 3: When I was working at Toys r Us, I would 1181 01:08:56,880 --> 01:09:01,120 Speaker 3: be the the opening uh you know, maintenance, her custodian guy, 1182 01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:03,719 Speaker 3: whatever it was, and so I'd get there hours before 1183 01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:05,639 Speaker 3: the place would open up. Sure you'd have to clean 1184 01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:08,000 Speaker 3: up and do it, so you'd have to clean both bathrooms. 1185 01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:10,960 Speaker 3: It wouldn't be you know, while anybody was obviously we're open, 1186 01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:13,519 Speaker 3: because you're not. You know, it wouldn't work. Although nowadays 1187 01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:17,440 Speaker 3: who knows. But and it was just it was disgusting, 1188 01:09:17,520 --> 01:09:19,479 Speaker 3: like you would go in there and you know, the 1189 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:23,800 Speaker 3: tampon drawers, there's it's just it's gross. It's really gross. 1190 01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:25,960 Speaker 3: So I would just say this, by far and away, 1191 01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:27,960 Speaker 3: the messier of the two is women. 1192 01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:32,759 Speaker 2: So for context, you're talking about a Toys Rus restroom, 1193 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:37,160 Speaker 2: not a dive bar or Chuck E Cheese restroom. 1194 01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:39,560 Speaker 3: No, well, I was the rat. I didn't have to 1195 01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:41,559 Speaker 3: do any of the dirty work. Come on, man, I'm 1196 01:09:41,600 --> 01:09:47,000 Speaker 3: too good for that. Oh okay, right, please. You know 1197 01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:50,920 Speaker 3: you don't make the talent clean the restaurants, okay, isay, 1198 01:09:51,200 --> 01:09:52,240 Speaker 3: So when you're dressed. 1199 01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:54,120 Speaker 6: Up as the rat rat all right, yeah, you do 1200 01:09:54,240 --> 01:09:55,040 Speaker 6: not have to go. 1201 01:09:54,960 --> 01:09:58,280 Speaker 3: Clean the restrooms. All right. The talent gets a certain 1202 01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:00,040 Speaker 3: perks that come along with. 1203 01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:05,479 Speaker 2: So to summarize in less than a two hour span, 1204 01:10:05,880 --> 01:10:09,920 Speaker 2: you have now educated myself and America for that matter, 1205 01:10:10,439 --> 01:10:17,080 Speaker 2: on South Carolina oyster festivals and toys r Us restrooms. 1206 01:10:17,360 --> 01:10:22,240 Speaker 2: That's correct, as well as Pitts. Just so you know, 1207 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:26,000 Speaker 2: this dive bar that McCarthy's dad owned, it still exists. 1208 01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:30,600 Speaker 2: It's under different ownership. It's now known as Zano's Pubhouse. 1209 01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 2: By the way, Xano's Pubhouse in Pittsburgh's so you can 1210 01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:38,479 Speaker 2: look on the menu. It's the home of the famous 1211 01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:42,479 Speaker 2: one pound balloon burger. It's also home of the run 1212 01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:47,920 Speaker 2: Burger and the Scottie Burger, among other things. They also 1213 01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:53,120 Speaker 2: have a HOGI selection where they offer the volcano the 1214 01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:57,200 Speaker 2: dude and it goes on and on. But apparently it's 1215 01:10:57,240 --> 01:11:00,320 Speaker 2: a very well regarded Pittsburgh die bar. 1216 01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:03,000 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm looking at the picture. I do see 1217 01:11:03,200 --> 01:11:06,040 Speaker 3: they've got a God, that's not a fun I kind 1218 01:11:06,040 --> 01:11:07,080 Speaker 3: of know where that area is. 1219 01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:08,120 Speaker 6: I'll bet you do. 1220 01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:11,519 Speaker 2: That's great, I'll bet I'll bet that's what Mike McCarthy 1221 01:11:11,640 --> 01:11:14,639 Speaker 2: was referring to a night after you were a patron there. 1222 01:11:14,920 --> 01:11:17,559 Speaker 3: I will say they just didn't. Looking at the picture 1223 01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:20,680 Speaker 3: of the place and doing a simple Google search, you 1224 01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:23,519 Speaker 3: can see like a fridge in the background where they 1225 01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:26,760 Speaker 3: keep the bottle beers.

The UFC, so they've signed this big, 1273 01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:59,439 Speaker 3: giant billions and billions dollars deal with paramount So they've 1274 01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:01,280 Speaker 3: left Es. They were with Fox for a while, they 1275 01:14:01,280 --> 01:14:03,920 Speaker 3: were awesome to work with, awesome to work with, and 1276 01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:06,280 Speaker 3: then they were with ESPN for a while. Now they're 1277 01:14:06,280 --> 01:14:08,120 Speaker 3: going to Paramounts. If they got their first event coming 1278 01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:11,000 Speaker 3: up later on. One of the things they did, which let 1279 01:14:11,040 --> 01:14:12,960 Speaker 3: me just tell you something. Out here on the West Coast, 1280 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:15,360 Speaker 3: we don't feel it as much. On the East Coast, 1281 01:14:15,360 --> 01:14:19,840 Speaker 3: you do. They change the start time of their pay 1282 01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:23,080 Speaker 3: per view events, so they used to start at seven 1283 01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:26,519 Speaker 3: o'clock Pacific time, ten Eastern time. Now they're starting at 1284 01:14:26,520 --> 01:14:28,320 Speaker 3: six o'clock, and you think, well, it's an hour, big 1285 01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:31,880 Speaker 3: deal that hour on the East Coast. If you go 1286 01:14:31,960 --> 01:14:36,200 Speaker 3: out to watch those things, that's a problem. It's a 1287 01:14:36,280 --> 01:14:40,000 Speaker 3: weird feel when you're watching a sporting event on the 1288 01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:45,120 Speaker 3: East Coast that goes late, because after the game, it's 1289 01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:48,240 Speaker 3: just over. After the fight, it's just over. You're going home. 1290 01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:51,160 Speaker 3: That's it. That's a wrap to where out here the 1291 01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:53,360 Speaker 3: knight's just getting started. I mean, this thing will wrap 1292 01:14:53,520 --> 01:14:58,360 Speaker 3: up at eight forty five, nine o'clock, maybe a little 1293 01:14:58,360 --> 01:15:01,400 Speaker 3: bit later, and you're good to go. On the East Coast, 1294 01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:05,080 Speaker 3: it's a complete game changer. So it's why we always say, 1295 01:15:05,720 --> 01:15:08,519 Speaker 3: if you've never experienced the NFL on the West Coast 1296 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:11,240 Speaker 3: when the games start at ten am, you gotta try 1297 01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:14,519 Speaker 3: it once. You gotta try it once. The late games 1298 01:15:14,560 --> 01:15:17,680 Speaker 3: are over by about four four point thirty. Then you 1299 01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:19,519 Speaker 3: got your Sunday night football and you get to bet 1300 01:15:19,520 --> 01:15:22,799 Speaker 3: at a reasonable hour. The East Coast really does suffer, 1301 01:15:22,880 --> 01:15:25,000 Speaker 3: not just with the weather this weekend, but with the 1302 01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:27,559 Speaker 3: star times of these games.

We will 1336 01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:12,240 Speaker 3: post the podcast link there as well too. And with that, 1337 01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:17,759 Speaker 3: it is time for the Conference championship edition of this. 1338 01:17:18,800 --> 01:17:23,479 Speaker 6: Lock It, Let's lock it and no knocks loucks. 1339 01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:28,040 Speaker 3: All right, So before we look forward to tomorrow, we 1340 01:17:28,120 --> 01:17:33,680 Speaker 3: got to look back on last weekend bills Broncos. We 1341 01:17:33,760 --> 01:17:39,280 Speaker 3: had the bills plus one and a half. We got hosed. Now, 1342 01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:43,640 Speaker 3: if I would have known that. Apparently they were just 1343 01:17:43,640 --> 01:17:46,160 Speaker 3: going to change what is considered a catch and what 1344 01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:48,800 Speaker 3: is considered possession when you hit the ground and what's not, 1345 01:17:49,080 --> 01:17:50,519 Speaker 3: and the fact that you weren't even going to take 1346 01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:52,800 Speaker 3: a look at it in overtime and they wanted to 1347 01:17:52,840 --> 01:17:54,639 Speaker 3: speed the game up and all that. If I would 1348 01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:57,920 Speaker 3: have known all that, I probably wouldn't have bet on 1349 01:17:57,960 --> 01:18:02,680 Speaker 3: the Bills. If I would have known that Terry Pegoula 1350 01:18:03,360 --> 01:18:05,640 Speaker 3: operates the team and the way he does, based on 1351 01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:08,280 Speaker 3: his comments earlier this week, I definitely wouldn't bet on 1352 01:18:08,280 --> 01:18:11,920 Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills. But apparently all those things were hiding. 1353 01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:15,160 Speaker 3: I did not see those I took Buffalo and we lost. 1354 01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:17,680 Speaker 3: We did make make up for it though. We had 1355 01:18:17,680 --> 01:18:20,560 Speaker 3: the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday night. All right, the Seahawks 1356 01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:22,720 Speaker 3: over the Niners. That felt like the easiest pick of 1357 01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:25,960 Speaker 3: the weekend. Loved Seattle. In that game, the Niners were 1358 01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:28,120 Speaker 3: way too banged up. I didn't get all caught up 1359 01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:31,120 Speaker 3: in the Sam Donald oblique injury stuff. To me. The 1360 01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:34,560 Speaker 3: Niners were hobbling into that spot and it was a wipeout. 1361 01:18:34,840 --> 01:18:36,880 Speaker 3: We had the Texans plus three and a half against 1362 01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:38,760 Speaker 3: the New England Patriots. I could really put up a 1363 01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:41,760 Speaker 3: gripe here too. I was unaware of the fact that 1364 01:18:41,800 --> 01:18:44,519 Speaker 3: c J. Stroud was melting down before our very eyes. 1365 01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:48,559 Speaker 3: I had no idea. The Texans defense did everything they could, 1366 01:18:48,800 --> 01:18:52,400 Speaker 3: everything they possibly could to hand them the game, and 1367 01:18:52,439 --> 01:18:54,600 Speaker 3: c J. Stroud just kept turning the ball over. So 1368 01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:57,320 Speaker 3: that was a miss, but we made up for it 1369 01:18:57,360 --> 01:19:00,160 Speaker 3: with the Bears getting four and a half points at 1370 01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:03,719 Speaker 3: home on that classic Sunday night game against the La Rams. 1371 01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:07,240 Speaker 3: It went into overtime, but the Bears only lose by three, 1372 01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:10,080 Speaker 3: which means we win our second game of the weekend, 1373 01:19:10,400 --> 01:19:13,720 Speaker 3: which means we're five hundred again, two weekends in a 1374 01:19:13,800 --> 01:19:16,040 Speaker 3: row in the playoffs, which puts us at five hundred 1375 01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:18,360 Speaker 3: for the entirety of the playoffs. We are five and 1376 01:19:18,479 --> 01:19:24,000 Speaker 3: five and now we're ready for tomorrow Patriots at Broncos. 1377 01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:27,520 Speaker 3: I'm going to take the Broncos. I will take the Broncos, 1378 01:19:27,720 --> 01:19:30,040 Speaker 3: especially if I'm getting four and a half points. Look 1379 01:19:30,920 --> 01:19:34,839 Speaker 3: the Jared Stidham conversation, I understand it. It's a real one, 1380 01:19:35,680 --> 01:19:37,960 Speaker 3: but the Broncos are at home, and I just have 1381 01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:41,559 Speaker 3: a funny feeling. Sean Payton's going to have something dialed up, 1382 01:19:41,760 --> 01:19:45,040 Speaker 3: something ready, something in store for the New England Patriots. 1383 01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:47,439 Speaker 3: I love what the Patriots have done. I do think 1384 01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:50,599 Speaker 3: New England probably wins the game, but ultimately I think 1385 01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:53,360 Speaker 3: Denver can keep it close as long as Jared Stidham 1386 01:19:53,400 --> 01:19:55,519 Speaker 3: just doesn't turn the ball over. I think the Denver 1387 01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:57,599 Speaker 3: defense is going to keep them in this game as 1388 01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:00,000 Speaker 3: well too. And if you want some fun facts here, 1389 01:20:00,800 --> 01:20:03,000 Speaker 3: this is how ugly it has been. According to Pro 1390 01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:05,840 Speaker 3: Football Reference, there have been ten games over the past 1391 01:20:05,880 --> 01:20:08,240 Speaker 3: fifty years where a road team has been favored by 1392 01:20:08,280 --> 01:20:11,080 Speaker 3: four points or more in a playoff game. They've gone 1393 01:20:11,200 --> 01:20:14,120 Speaker 3: zero to ten against the spread, including a game this 1394 01:20:14,200 --> 01:20:16,840 Speaker 3: year where the Rams didn't cover against the Panthers when 1395 01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:18,559 Speaker 3: they were ten and a half point favorite. So with 1396 01:20:18,640 --> 01:20:21,400 Speaker 3: that said, I'll take Denver at home to get things started. 1397 01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:26,880 Speaker 3: Rams at Seahawks, I'm gonna take the Rams. I'm getting 1398 01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:29,280 Speaker 3: two and a half points. We've seen these teams play 1399 01:20:29,360 --> 01:20:32,560 Speaker 3: twice before. The Rams won the first one and dominated 1400 01:20:32,600 --> 01:20:35,439 Speaker 3: Sam Darnold. They should have won the second one. I 1401 01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:38,400 Speaker 3: know Seattle looked really, really impressive last week, but I 1402 01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:40,559 Speaker 3: got the Rams. They're getting two and a half points 1403 01:20:40,600 --> 01:20:42,840 Speaker 3: and I think they're gonna win this game outright, and 1404 01:20:42,960 --> 01:20:46,920 Speaker 3: with that, those are your conference championship picks in the 1405 01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:51,639 Speaker 3: knocks Lucks, there's been a fun one. Thanks to Shay, 1406 01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:54,840 Speaker 3: Chris and Isaac. We appreciate you. We're back next week 1407 01:20:54,880 --> 01:20:58,280 Speaker 3: right here on FSR shonas son of a Bitch,
