Speaker 1: Be Around the NFL Podcast won't break the bubble for
Speaker 1: chicken wings. I wouldn't say that. Welcome to another edition
Speaker 1: at the Around the NFL Podcast. My name is Dan
Speaker 1: Hans is coming to from a virtual room filled with heroes.
Speaker 1: Mark Sessler, right Rosenthal And there she is again from
Speaker 1: the den of her humble abode. Connie Fox, Collie Wolf.
Speaker 1: What's up? Still warming up the old voice this morning? Wow?
Speaker 1: I actually I finally now have placed it though, give
Speaker 1: me that, give me your hello again? Helloa, Okay. What
Speaker 1: it sounds like to me is hello, my baby, Hello,
Speaker 1: my daughter? Yeah, a little bit of Katherine Hepburn in there,
Speaker 1: maybe just a tinge. What's up? Billy? Moira Rose from
Speaker 1: Ship's Creek is my idol? And who I really just
Speaker 1: model everything out? Hey, what's up? How's everybody doing Tuesday? Well,
Speaker 1: we gave almost Halloween, you know for our listeners. They
Speaker 1: should just be aware that Dan's doing this show um
Speaker 1: in a somewhat distracting way with a killer doll behind
Speaker 1: his right shoulder. His name is his name is Sam.
Speaker 1: He's not a doll. He's like half boy, half alien,
Speaker 1: and my children because these are the dark days of society,
Speaker 1: and can't really go out or do anything. On the iPad,
Speaker 1: they watch a lot of YouTube videos of the famous
Speaker 1: Spirit Halloween warehouse stores that pop up in the fall
Speaker 1: all across the country, and they became so obsessed with
Speaker 1: the different animatronics at the store that they learned all
Speaker 1: of their names by heart. Like I could bring in
Speaker 1: Jack right now and he could just tell you every
Speaker 1: single one of them. And one of them is Sam,
Speaker 1: who is um a yeah, half boy, half demon that
Speaker 1: comes out on Halloween night and visits one town every
Speaker 1: Halloween night, and you have to follow these certain rules
Speaker 1: that he sets and if you don't, he punishes you
Speaker 1: with definitely belie. It's a rated our film called Trigger
Speaker 1: Treat My Children. Thankfully, Child Services says have not seen it,
Speaker 1: but this will be Jack's Halloween costume as well. Deed,
Speaker 1: his grandmother made a really incredible effects Emily Well, I mean,
Speaker 1: every boy should have his heroes. So a boy demon
Speaker 1: um mash up feels appropriate for a seven or eight
Speaker 1: year old, six year old it feels like a year
Speaker 1: Sam Sam take on Los Angeles. It's very confusing though,
Speaker 1: like no one really knows what counts as Los Angeles.
Speaker 1: Um so it's a lot of people. Nobody knows. Sam.
Speaker 1: It's like, does it end that thousand oaks? Like is
Speaker 1: that count as it? Or like, I don't really know.
Speaker 1: It's that's how you can get Sam. Wait, I missed
Speaker 1: that entire thing. What does it have to do with
Speaker 1: the city limits? Well, he said, he comes, he visits
Speaker 1: one town every I don't know where it ends. There's
Speaker 1: a lot of work. Sam's gonna be like, there's a
Speaker 1: lot of sprawl here. Who the voice is concerning? Colleen,
Speaker 1: Thank you for joining us the Tiny Bay. It's a pleasure. Um,
Speaker 1: good show. Today, we're gonna recap Monday Night Football as
Speaker 1: thrilling as that affair was between the Rams and Bears.
Speaker 1: We're gonna preview Thursday Night Football, mark a showdown between
Speaker 1: Whom and whom the Carolina Panthers under the watch of
Speaker 1: Matt Rule Verse the floating away Atlanta Falcons. There you go.
Speaker 1: So we got that NFC South showdown coming, will preview that. Also, Yes,
Speaker 1: it is Halloween on Saturday, and obviously this is a
Speaker 1: huge deal in a house with two boys here, um,
Speaker 1: and we are going to have a little Halloween fun
Speaker 1: on today's show. Terrifying thoughts in the NFL, and uh Ricky,
Speaker 1: speaking of terrifying thoughts, you answered the door for a
Speaker 1: potential serial killer and handed him a knife on Sunday's podcast.
Speaker 1: So where are we at on that? And that had happened? Folks?
Speaker 1: That everything I just said was not an exaggle. I
Speaker 1: don't know if the guy is a serial murder, but
Speaker 1: you did open the door for a stranger who looked
Speaker 1: unbalanced and handed him a stabbing tool. Yeah. I mean
Speaker 1: what started as a ha haha, WTF moment during the
Speaker 1: pod ended up being very very scary and for I
Speaker 1: want to clear something up. I did not hand him
Speaker 1: a knife. I did offer to because my place is
Speaker 1: situated off the road, right, so when the only people
Speaker 1: that come back here are people that live here. Again, Yeah,
Speaker 1: this guy was in the unit next door. He was
Speaker 1: moving in next door. He was in the physical unit
Speaker 1: he was inside it came asked me for a broom
Speaker 1: earlier when I first moved to my apartment. I deep
Speaker 1: cleaned it before I moved in, So all these things
Speaker 1: are making sense. When he comes, he has a frozen
Speaker 1: pizza that's already cooked, but he doesn't have silverware because
Speaker 1: he just moved in classic crazy person move to me
Speaker 1: A yes, wasn't naive? Yes do I so he you
Speaker 1: offered him, but he didn't take the knife. I was like,
Speaker 1: just borrow it because I was doing the show. I
Speaker 1: was like, and he came to my window and was like,
Speaker 1: had this frozen pizza that wasn't cut It was like
Speaker 1: a little Amy's frozen pizza and it was cooked. And
Speaker 1: I ended up cutting the pizza for him, and he
Speaker 1: did kind of force himself inside my house and it
Speaker 1: could have been really, really bad. And we ended up
Speaker 1: finding out from the landlord that the unit was vacant,
Speaker 1: so not only was he in the apartment next door,
Speaker 1: came into my place. The police were here till late
Speaker 1: into the wee hours of the morning. On Sunday night,
Speaker 1: Eddie Spaghetti rushed over. It ended up being, you know what,
Speaker 1: was kind of funny during the podcast turning into something
Speaker 1: that could have been really really serious and Big John
Speaker 1: stud Tampose was not happy your old man's was not
Speaker 1: happy your behavior either. I mean, you were in a
Speaker 1: tough spot. It's hard to react, especially when you're in
Speaker 1: the middle of you know, producing essentially a live program.
Speaker 1: But he wasn't happy. Well at least we know he's vegan,
Speaker 1: you know, so he's keeping himself healthy. Those are vegan
Speaker 1: pizzas and nice guy. My thing is like I've I've
Speaker 1: been alone, like in the house for a day or two,
Speaker 1: and I've cooked a frozen pizza. And I mean, I
Speaker 1: guess because like I have the utensils around, I'll just
Speaker 1: cut it in half. And why am I cutting it
Speaker 1: into fourteen slices? If I'm alone, I still have to
Speaker 1: cut it in half. So he did me a full pizza,
Speaker 1: which I would just pick it up and eat it.
Speaker 1: I would pizza. Nothing happened. A lot of alarm bells
Speaker 1: were going off at this point. But it was also
Speaker 1: like to me, I was like he's the new neighbor.
Speaker 1: He was physically inside the apartment, Like to me, it's
Speaker 1: been empty. I was doing all of these sort of
Speaker 1: It's not like I'm I'm in a place where people
Speaker 1: walk by my house all day and some guys like hey,
Speaker 1: and people live next And if my mom rang the
Speaker 1: doorbell during a podcast, I'm not answering it, like she
Speaker 1: can wait till it's over. Well, that see, that's how
Speaker 1: men are taught to know. That's that's how Greg is taught,
Speaker 1: especially with my mom. We haven't spoken in like seventeen years,
Speaker 1: So shut up, Amy. I have many questions that I
Speaker 1: won't talk well, I won't ask them all right now,
Speaker 1: but we're going to have to talk more offline about this. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I actually spent like all day in bed yesterday. I
Speaker 1: was very upset, Like I was very I'm very upset.
Speaker 1: One underlying sort of silver lining here. I mean, can
Speaker 1: you imagine during a pandemic, Dan and Greg if we
Speaker 1: had to somehow find a new producer on the fly
Speaker 1: over the court between Sunday and Tuesday's show, the inconvenience
Speaker 1: that it would have caused, um, the three of us
Speaker 1: would have been that's a near tragedy, right, Yeah, what
Speaker 1: stress you would have been under? That would have been?
Speaker 1: I don't it would have been the tipping. I don't
Speaker 1: even know Nobile's number. Right, All right, let's get into it.
Speaker 1: We're glad you're okay, Erica. Just I didn't hand him
Speaker 1: a knife. I thank you for clearing that up. Would
Speaker 1: your neighbor that you thought you was your new neighbor
Speaker 1: if they needed utensils? Like to me, I know it
Speaker 1: sounded crazy, but I was doing all this deductive reasoning
Speaker 1: in my head. And you're a good Samaritan. I mean,
Speaker 1: the guy it was, it was legitimately a coin flip
Speaker 1: that he was a psychopath and you did let him
Speaker 1: into the house, but that that's I didn't. I opened
Speaker 1: the door and then he was standing outside and I
Speaker 1: and I was like, you know, w t F, I'll
Speaker 1: go cut this pizza. And then I hear the door
Speaker 1: shut and he's in, like, oh my god, this is
Speaker 1: my worst nightmare. What yes, stop it? Yeah, And you
Speaker 1: guys are on the you guys are on the screen
Speaker 1: going like Erica, Erica, but you couldn't see anything not
Speaker 1: running into a dateline episode, right, all right, let's just
Speaker 1: let's purge our minds of that horrific situation. Glad it
Speaker 1: all worked out. Um, all right, let's get to Monday
Speaker 1: night football. My goodness, half the Halloween. Everybody gosh, Gerald
Speaker 1: ever and and he walks into the end zone, touchdown,
Speaker 1: rash pushing all the right buttons. Tonight, this Sean McVeigh
Speaker 1: Ricky is still alive. We're very lucky that's the case.
Speaker 1: She shouldn't have opened the door bell at Rams twenty
Speaker 1: four Chicago Bears ten uh the Rams use a defense
Speaker 1: that would not let Nick Foles get going. Uh, to
Speaker 1: keep the Bears out of the end zone on office,
Speaker 1: They're only score Chicago came on a defensive bumble recovery
Speaker 1: and even that, somehow it was boring. The Bears are
Speaker 1: the worst or at least at least the most boring
Speaker 1: five and two team I can remember the Rams all. So, now,
Speaker 1: what were your takeaways from this affair? Well, watching it,
Speaker 1: I just feel like the identity of this Rams team
Speaker 1: is now the defense completely. Like Jalen Ramsey was so aggressive,
Speaker 1: he had he had that pick. He was so physical.
Speaker 1: You had Aaron Donald. They were able to just get
Speaker 1: home so quick to Nick Foles. They sacked him four
Speaker 1: times twice by Leonard four Net, which was the actual
Speaker 1: sneaky revenge game angle that everybody was talking about. Oh,
Speaker 1: Nick Foles revenge game. Leonard Floyd, that was the revenge
Speaker 1: game and he exacted some there twice. He sacked Nick
Speaker 1: Foles in the game. But the Bears offense, like, ah,
Speaker 1: it was just so ugly to to watch this game.
Speaker 1: So many stretches. I mean, they really couldn't move the ball.
Speaker 1: They had fewer than three hundred total yards in the
Speaker 1: whole game, and it just felt like against this Rams defense,
Speaker 1: they really got exposed for what they are. Like Chicago's defense,
Speaker 1: it's good, but it's not dominant enough to carry this
Speaker 1: Bears team throughout an entire game anymore. They did a
Speaker 1: good job, but they're they're doing it with zero help,
Speaker 1: and that's just not sustainable. I've been saying this all year.
Speaker 1: They're just you can't win the way the Bears are
Speaker 1: trying to win. They don't want to try to win
Speaker 1: this way because there's no defense that's that even the
Speaker 1: best defenses, I would put the Bears in the top
Speaker 1: four or five. They can give up thirty any week,
Speaker 1: Like everyone loves the Steelers defense is great. You can
Speaker 1: give up. You can go seven to Carson Wentz and
Speaker 1: you know, a bunch of ham and eggers, you can
Speaker 1: give up. You know, the Bucks can give up a
Speaker 1: lot of points in any given week. You gotta have
Speaker 1: an offense. Is the is the point, and Matt Naggi
Speaker 1: is in a tough spot because he doesn't have a
Speaker 1: quarterback and he doesn't have an offensive line. I think
Speaker 1: that's been lost a little bit this year. Their line,
Speaker 1: which they've basically kept together for three or four years,
Speaker 1: and it's always been okay, it improved, I would say
Speaker 1: over the last couple of years, it's been terrible. This year.
Speaker 1: They have no running games. David David Montgomery has no
Speaker 1: juice whatsoever. He never makes a guy miss, never breaks
Speaker 1: the tackle, and so you have Folds back there telling
Speaker 1: Brian Greasy that he knows um when the play is
Speaker 1: called in like if it's a seventh step drop to go,
Speaker 1: you know, throw to Alan Robinson, like he's not gonna
Speaker 1: have time to throw it. And I think people way
Speaker 1: overreacted to the to what this quote meant. It was
Speaker 1: just obvious, Like I don't think it was even like
Speaker 1: um a bad thing in terms of Matt Maggie's coaching.
Speaker 1: It's just like we'll watch them play. Of course he
Speaker 1: knows he doesn't have time on a five or steven
Speaker 1: step drop. It literally happens every play And doesn't mean
Speaker 1: you have to you stop calling those plays because you
Speaker 1: just have to if you watch those games, they just
Speaker 1: don't have any solutions. I mean, I like, it's not
Speaker 1: great coaching. I mean we're you know, we're years into
Speaker 1: Matt Nige and to me, uh, you know, he was
Speaker 1: hired from the Andy Reid you know Tree, this nice
Speaker 1: little branch off that Tree to come bring offense to
Speaker 1: a Bears team that has done this before. I mean,
Speaker 1: I feel like this is the eighth incarnation of the
Speaker 1: Bears team that relies on d defense to generate um,
Speaker 1: not just you know, juice, but points that you can't
Speaker 1: win typically in Chicago unless the defense scores. And the
Speaker 1: only way they even climbed vaguely back into the contest
Speaker 1: last night was a defensive score. And I guess I'm
Speaker 1: tired of it. And I feel a little bit like
Speaker 1: when you critique the Bears on you know, during a
Speaker 1: game like this, their fans come at you real hard.
Speaker 1: And I get it. It's it's rough to watch your
Speaker 1: team getting its butt trouns on national television. But it's
Speaker 1: also fair to critique a Bears team that deserves to
Speaker 1: give more to its fan base. I mean, I just
Speaker 1: I couldn't be more with you on David Montgomery. I
Speaker 1: feel like we've mentioned him before that, you know, all
Speaker 1: offseason long, it's like this guy better be you know,
Speaker 1: on your radar and fantasy drafts. The Bears want to
Speaker 1: run the ball, but it ran the ball for like
Speaker 1: two point three yards per carry. It's the same story
Speaker 1: every week. But they they team builded this roster for
Speaker 1: this moment. They went into the season with a bunch
Speaker 1: of bluster about you know, Mitch Robinsky and Nick Foles,
Speaker 1: and it's exhaust seen at this point. I mean, I
Speaker 1: think we saw this coming in March April, and may
Speaker 1: I mean in the Rams. The Rams. Also, the team's
Speaker 1: combined to go eight for seven on third down, so
Speaker 1: the Rams like offense has some issues too. And I
Speaker 1: still feel like, you know, tell me if I'm wrong,
Speaker 1: because we're in l A and you I listened to
Speaker 1: a lot of l A talk radio and Jared Goff
Speaker 1: gets mentioned a bunch here and there. But I feel
Speaker 1: like nationally he doesn't receive some of the critique that
Speaker 1: he should um in terms of the fact. I wonder
Speaker 1: if it's because he's just because he's like his haircut,
Speaker 1: he's just solid. He's there, He's a little bit better
Speaker 1: than average if you if you protect him, well, he's
Speaker 1: like an inoffensive Banana republic ad. I think he's just
Speaker 1: to critique. He's like he's good, he's okay, like he right, solid,
Speaker 1: is strong. He had he's viewed as baby being sort
Speaker 1: of baby sat by Sean McVeigh. So you have to
Speaker 1: critique Sean McVeigh, which does not happen in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Very good offense. They're not great. They're like, you're like
Speaker 1: six or seventh and d v o A. They're like
Speaker 1: great in term to the running game. You we can
Speaker 1: team up with how they run the ball more than
Speaker 1: you guys know a great run game. They're the best.
Speaker 1: They're the most efficient running game in the league in
Speaker 1: terms of like per play, they're they're they're a great
Speaker 1: running team. I don't know about great. The Trabinsky full
Speaker 1: situation is tough because Nick Foles really, uh, that much
Speaker 1: better than Trabinsky, And it did cross my mind, like
Speaker 1: Matt Naggy is getting killed now and you could feel
Speaker 1: like the pressure coming from the Bears fan base. It's
Speaker 1: kind of like an Adam Gates light situation to me,
Speaker 1: where you could feel that kind of negativity creeping around
Speaker 1: that organization. Now, But Naggie did get Trabinsky drafted, and
Speaker 1: we don't need to relitigate that situation. Uh. And then
Speaker 1: Nick Foles comes in and he's not the same player anymore,
Speaker 1: Like what what chance did he have to really get
Speaker 1: this offense cooking. I don't know, because quarterback plays so
Speaker 1: important and Monday night, like that game jumps out to me,
Speaker 1: Colleen that like in in our league, uh, Troy Aikman,
Speaker 1: all rights reserved. You have to have a quarterback that
Speaker 1: can move and and when things if you're if you
Speaker 1: can't scheme up guys open and you can't if your
Speaker 1: playmakers can't win one on one matchups, you have to
Speaker 1: have a backup plan now because the league is too
Speaker 1: strong and too fast. Coming after the quarterback full sitting
Speaker 1: back there like a statue, it's just like there's just
Speaker 1: no there's no pop, there's no juice. Well, especially in
Speaker 1: this game against the Rams pass rush, because you would think, okay,
Speaker 1: if Nick Foles is going to be in this game
Speaker 1: and he can't get out of trouble in the interior
Speaker 1: of that offensive line as questionable as it is, let's
Speaker 1: try and neutralize some of that pass rush by running
Speaker 1: the ball. But obviously, as you guys pointed out, like
Speaker 1: it just hasn't happened all season long. Coming into the
Speaker 1: game the previous three weeks, the Bears were averaging forty
Speaker 1: two rushing yards per game. No other team in the
Speaker 1: entire league had fewer than sixty four rushing yards. So
Speaker 1: last night, what do they do, same thing? I mean
Speaker 1: they total forty nine rushing yards, twenty in the first half.
Speaker 1: That's not how you get it on And obviously when
Speaker 1: you're behind, you're not gonna be able to run the ball,
Speaker 1: but like from the jump, maybe try and get it
Speaker 1: going a little bit there and help out Nick Foles,
Speaker 1: because that's a lot what the Rams do with Jared Golf.
Speaker 1: They built stuff off of the run, and Golf was methodical.
Speaker 1: He spread the ball around a seven different pass catchers.
Speaker 1: They mixed it up on offense, they were balanced, they
Speaker 1: round the ball. Five different guys were able to carry
Speaker 1: the ball. So this bears offense. It just doesn't move
Speaker 1: the needle at all. And Matt Naggie's in a really
Speaker 1: bad spot now because what are you gonna do. You
Speaker 1: can't go back to Mitch Drabinski right Well, they're back
Speaker 1: to back coaches of the year McVeigh and and Naggie.
Speaker 1: Yeah they could, and they might not much change anything,
Speaker 1: but why not. Bols didn't earn anything in Chicago, hasn't.
Speaker 1: I mean, you rotate the guys in and out every week. There,
Speaker 1: you're right there, there's no solution, but you're to point
Speaker 1: between McVeigh and Naggy. I think is is a smart
Speaker 1: one and the organization like they built the right team.
Speaker 1: I mean, Golf has no mobility either, although he's approved
Speaker 1: a little bit uh in that realm. I think this
Speaker 1: year he's made a couple off platform throws he did
Speaker 1: last night. Um, but like when you're getting Johnny Mutt
Speaker 1: and Josh Reynolds involved with big plays like that does
Speaker 1: show the difference in terms of the coaching and the
Speaker 1: team building. The Rams can still have a pretty respectable
Speaker 1: offense with you know, not necessarily the best talent in
Speaker 1: the league, and the Bears are just I think Goff's
Speaker 1: lack of ability hurts that offense too. He I think
Speaker 1: he's a better version of what Nick bole. He wasn't
Speaker 1: sharp part of a lot of times games come down
Speaker 1: to who comes down with like free balls at Goff
Speaker 1: could have had three turnovers. There are two plays he
Speaker 1: could have been picked. He had a fumble that the
Speaker 1: Rams recovered, whereas the Rams kind of you know, did
Speaker 1: capitalize on their turn over opportunity. Turn opportunities on defense.
Speaker 1: So it's like it wasn't that a difference. It's like
Speaker 1: like seven years away from twenty three quarterbacks essentially being
Speaker 1: sort of Kyler Murray clones and the Jared Goff's in
Speaker 1: the Nick Foles of the world, and even some of
Speaker 1: I look at someone like Baker Mayfield, who isn't really
Speaker 1: a scrambler. I mean, that's a liability at quarterback half
Speaker 1: a decade from now, if not now already. And so
Speaker 1: the quarterback position is changing, and someone like Nick Foles
Speaker 1: looks like he was thrust to us from three decades ago.
Speaker 1: And let's give before we move on, let's give a
Speaker 1: little love to a man that should be going to
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, Johnny Hecker. And I know Ray
Speaker 1: guys a punter that that's in the All of Fame.
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's anyone else, but Hecker has
Speaker 1: been incredible, uh for the Rams his entire career and
Speaker 1: in a game that was pretty boring, and that was
Speaker 1: one of the kind of uh narratives on Twitters like
Speaker 1: this game sucks. You had Johnny Hecker punt five times,
Speaker 1: each punt dropping in getting down inside the ten yard line,
Speaker 1: especially in a game like that, a low scoring, you know,
Speaker 1: field position driven game. The man is like a nuclear weapon,
Speaker 1: and uh, I just enjoyed seeing Hecker have a moment there.
Speaker 1: That was fun. And not only that, just real quick
Speaker 1: before we wrap it up, like, I'm really curious to
Speaker 1: see how good this Rams team actually is when they
Speaker 1: start playing real competition within their own division. I mean,
Speaker 1: we saw what they lost to the Niners, but they
Speaker 1: have five wins, four of them are against NFC East teams,
Speaker 1: so it's like, yeah, that's fair, that's fair. This is
Speaker 1: a good win. Bears have, Bears have beaten good teams
Speaker 1: like the Bucks. So just just to get it done
Speaker 1: and get it convincing, it's good for them. But you're
Speaker 1: absolutely right. I am curious, like when I'm thinking of
Speaker 1: like what's the Rams weakness And to me, it's just
Speaker 1: like they're in a they're in a conference with in
Speaker 1: a in a league with like super sensational offenses. I
Speaker 1: don't know if they're there, they're like they're pretty good,
Speaker 1: you know, they're like Jared Goff, They're pretty good. That's
Speaker 1: what they were two years ago. All right, that's Monday
Speaker 1: Night football. Before we get to terrifying thoughts, uh Mark
Speaker 1: mentioned his Browns and Baker Mayfield. Mayfield will not have
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham for the rest of the year. We talked
Speaker 1: about it on Sunday Show. Beckham was injured Mayfield through
Speaker 1: an interception on the Cleveland's first drive of the game
Speaker 1: in Sunday's win against Cincinnati. During the rundown of that
Speaker 1: interception run back, Odell gets his knee banged up. It
Speaker 1: turns out, of course, Uh to be a torn a
Speaker 1: c l So hopefully he's back healthy and ready for one.
Speaker 1: Do you buy into its Seessler? I think you tweeted
Speaker 1: something along these lines on Twitter? Do you buy into
Speaker 1: the idea? And obviously at stinks for Beckham, who when
Speaker 1: he's when he's right as an electrifying talent, but that
Speaker 1: he ever that he never really made Baker better. And
Speaker 1: can you connect dots between Beckham going out on Sunday
Speaker 1: for instance, and then uh Mayfield going off. Well, I
Speaker 1: mean it's a it's a small sample size. I mean
Speaker 1: I retweeted someone who just put the basic numbers of
Speaker 1: what Baker um produced without Odell Beckham from when he
Speaker 1: came into the league till now and with and and
Speaker 1: there were some stark differences. I mean, I never would
Speaker 1: say that taking a all pro level wide receiver off
Speaker 1: your roster will make any team better. But this is
Speaker 1: just conjecture. But I just kind of feel like the
Speaker 1: Baker O'Dell thing Um was engined off a lot of
Speaker 1: force throws last season and this year was um. They
Speaker 1: did a better job with it. They got Odell Beckham
Speaker 1: involved in a different way. But I can't remember, you know,
Speaker 1: two or three games in a row, I mean really
Speaker 1: even two where you said that Baker Nodell Beckham were
Speaker 1: on the same page. Uh. He Baker has looked much
Speaker 1: better with guys like Richard Higgins Um who had a
Speaker 1: hundred yards in the last game, guys like Richard perrimanen
Speaker 1: I And I don't know what that means. I think
Speaker 1: that the one little other thing that jumps out to
Speaker 1: me with Baker Mayfield, I think he needs to be
Speaker 1: and whether or not you agree that he is this,
Speaker 1: I just think he needs to kind of be the
Speaker 1: alpha male, the alpha dog in the room. And when
Speaker 1: we bring in Odell Beckham, I mean, you're adding great talent,
Speaker 1: but I think it kind of changed the dynamic of
Speaker 1: what Baker's role was. I think he was sort of
Speaker 1: clearly catering to Odell Beckham a year ago and feeling
Speaker 1: the pressure around that. I don't know, I mean football strange.
Speaker 1: Maybe sometimes you remove someone from the mix and the
Speaker 1: chemistry is altered and um, more players get involved. They
Speaker 1: had a lot more players involved last game and they
Speaker 1: needed to um and they're gonna keep needing too. But
Speaker 1: I don't think removing it makes you a better team, right.
Speaker 1: I think two things can be true. That they're worse
Speaker 1: without Odell Beckham and that the Baker Mayfield Odell Beckham
Speaker 1: thing has been a you know, disappointment. Not you know,
Speaker 1: it's unfortunately he got injured, but Odell, you know, was
Speaker 1: on pace for under a thousand yards this year before
Speaker 1: the injury. It just wasn't in an efficient connection. And
Speaker 1: I know Adell was playing through an injury, but he
Speaker 1: played all last year and there were so many drop
Speaker 1: passes and bad you know, interceptions that the interception that
Speaker 1: Odell got hurt on was it was a throw to Adell.
Speaker 1: So I don't know what the answer for that is,
Speaker 1: but it's just it wasn't in a efficient connection. I
Speaker 1: don't think it makes them better, but I like Baker
Speaker 1: to O'Dell wasn't working. I'm curious if Baker to everyone
Speaker 1: else can work better when they're not playing the Bengals
Speaker 1: like that. That's a bigger question. Um. Yeah, any any
Speaker 1: other thoughts on that county. It's just like such a
Speaker 1: bummer with all of the injuries we've seen all season
Speaker 1: long to so many of the big names, and this
Speaker 1: is just another one added to the long, long crazy.
Speaker 1: It feels like everyone especially I mean, this isn't the case,
Speaker 1: but it just feels that way, like the elite guys,
Speaker 1: someone you're gonna pop in a c L at some
Speaker 1: point and Backham. One of his issues, uh really since
Speaker 1: his Giants heyday has been staying healthy. He's always been hurt. Uh,
Speaker 1: And it's unfortunate now that he gets hit by the
Speaker 1: a c L monster. I think he turns twenty eighth
Speaker 1: next month. Um, so he's gonna long rehab ahead of him.
Speaker 1: Don't you think back to like I think to with
Speaker 1: West on our podcast, you know where we wish West
Speaker 1: was on the show today, But just talking about like that,
Speaker 1: O'Dell has an all time great talking about that year
Speaker 1: by the way of Johnny Hecker as an all time
Speaker 1: great too, that that season was heckers like m v
Speaker 1: P year and now it's just through bad luck and
Speaker 1: then the trade and every thing like well, I remember
Speaker 1: west career has totally changed. When we did Sandwich Props
Speaker 1: ahead of the twenty nineteen season, coming off the summer
Speaker 1: Brown's hype, West had predicted that Beckham was going to
Speaker 1: set the touchdown records. So that's kind of where things
Speaker 1: were in terms of hype. And West obviously was a
Speaker 1: guy that knows his stuff like you was right. He
Speaker 1: he had one of the past four years to start
Speaker 1: a career. Ever it all, I kind of made sense
Speaker 1: that it was going to happen. It just never has
Speaker 1: and who knows if it ever will. Um? All right, Dan,
Speaker 1: I cannot stop um peering at this boy demon over
Speaker 1: your shoulder. I'm sorry, it's just slightly disturbing. Keep the
Speaker 1: happy lollipop. Is it more disturbing than when I filled
Speaker 1: out my my general election ballot before today's show? And
Speaker 1: Kanye West was one of the options as vice president? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I thought he was running for president because I
Speaker 1: thought the same thing when I filled out my ballot yesterday.
Speaker 1: Didn't he flip? He became the undercard to that to
Speaker 1: some other he didn't realize that that's the thing that happened.
Speaker 1: You know, It's funny, like if you would have told me,
Speaker 1: let's say, you know, after college dropout, maybe late registration
Speaker 1: around two thousand five, like, oh, Kanye for president. M
Speaker 1: I think there's some things that would potentially make sense
Speaker 1: about that, But as time has gone on, I just
Speaker 1: don't think. I don't think Greg. I don't think he's
Speaker 1: the answer. I don't you know. We we've been, um,
Speaker 1: we've been promoting NFL votes. It's like, yeah, NFL votes
Speaker 1: except for Kanye, but yeah, check out check out l
Speaker 1: a vote dot net. If you're nearby. There's this website
Speaker 1: that shows you how long the weight is that all
Speaker 1: the early voting centers I'm going today, I'm excited for that,
Speaker 1: and they're all under fifteen minutes at least today. There.
Speaker 1: I was in and out yesterday, which if that should
Speaker 1: be the case for everybody everywhere. But the one thing
Speaker 1: that I really felt like it was a bad omen
Speaker 1: was as we left the voting center, there was just
Speaker 1: a brush fire that had started out of nowhere and
Speaker 1: was like starting to rage on the side of the road,
Speaker 1: and no fire trucks were there yet or anything, so
Speaker 1: like that that was something that was scary. Yeah, don't
Speaker 1: don't love that symbolism. All right, let's let's get into it. Yes, Um,
Speaker 1: the NFL. We're almost halfway through the regular season now,
Speaker 1: and I always like, you know, some of the you know,
Speaker 1: if you're kind of a generic bro, you're gonna say, hey,
Speaker 1: season don't really start till after Thanksgiving. Like, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's what we've been saying, Hey, decease, don't even watch
Speaker 1: till the turkey serbed. That's that's very normal, Princess. It
Speaker 1: is something FRANCESSA would say from his godfather Bill p
Speaker 1: ourselves started right, But I think what Francess and whomever
Speaker 1: else that was more like that's when you really start
Speaker 1: to see who were the true elite teams and all
Speaker 1: the separation happens. But for me, Halloween is a really
Speaker 1: good time to take a take a look at kind
Speaker 1: of where everybody is, uh, And we're going to kind
Speaker 1: of do that in a segment we call terrifying Thoughts. Now,
Speaker 1: these thoughts everybody could be terrifying in a negative way
Speaker 1: for a team or in a positive way for a team,
Speaker 1: and more terrifying for the opposition. So it could go
Speaker 1: positive negative. Let's get going here with Greg Rosal. All right, um,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go positive at least in terms of the
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers. And think if you're an NFC contender
Speaker 1: and you find out over the next week that the
Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers have added Stefan Gilmore to the mix.
Speaker 1: Albert Brier reporting that the Patriots have been listening to
Speaker 1: offers for Stefan Gilmore. And you think about this Green
Speaker 1: Bay Packers team with j Are Alexander maybe the best
Speaker 1: shutdown corner on one side. Then you add Stefan Gilmore,
Speaker 1: who's probably looking for some money on the other side,
Speaker 1: and suddenly Mike Patton can cook up all the things
Speaker 1: he wants to do. It doesn't matter that you run.
Speaker 1: Defense is bad. Terrifying? What let me ask you this, Greg,
Speaker 1: because that is terrifying. It's terrifying to think that the
Speaker 1: Patriots are just giving up and starting over, because why
Speaker 1: would you step on Gilmore. I know he hasn't been
Speaker 1: quite as good this year, but this is the reigning
Speaker 1: defensive player of the year. He's still I believe twenty
Speaker 1: eight or so. This seems like a guy that should
Speaker 1: be around in the building, but they are potentially ready
Speaker 1: to just tear it down. Well, I think you gotta
Speaker 1: look at where do these reports come from? And I
Speaker 1: think Stephan Gilmore wants to get paid more. He's actually
Speaker 1: thirty dan and he's not gonna be um a free
Speaker 1: agent for another two years. I think, you know, this
Speaker 1: year and then in the next season, and he's relatively underpaid.
Speaker 1: Is he gonna ever get that big payday? Again? Who
Speaker 1: is floating this out there? The Patriots seem unlikely to
Speaker 1: just give him a monster deal. They did just give
Speaker 1: him out of the kindness of their heart, you know,
Speaker 1: for Belichick five extra billion dollars this year, kind of
Speaker 1: the Gronk deal of like, hey, we know you're wildly underpaid,
Speaker 1: will give you a little bump um. But he might
Speaker 1: know he's not getting that big extension with the Patriots,
Speaker 1: and that makes sense. I love the idea of this
Speaker 1: swap because you know, if Mike Petton's defense, which has
Speaker 1: seems to have issues wherever it occurs, when it thrives though,
Speaker 1: you think back to Cromarty and Rivas Island together. Now
Speaker 1: that was Rex and Petting together, and they can they
Speaker 1: can argue about who did what. But that's that's what
Speaker 1: Mike Petton defense is to shut down type corners. And
Speaker 1: I mean Richard Seymour. You look at guys in New
Speaker 1: England that have been shipped out when people still found
Speaker 1: them extremely effective. That's the bell and sometimes they trade
Speaker 1: them during a Super Bowl season. It's happened. They're good players.
Speaker 1: So I wouldn't put anything past is at the same
Speaker 1: level as a Gilmore though this is the first team.
Speaker 1: I mean like a Chandler Jones that was before a
Speaker 1: Super Bowl year. I mean they were gone into first
Speaker 1: didn't he from Raiders? It is wild that, like we're
Speaker 1: sitting in this position where the Patriots are talking about
Speaker 1: trading one of their best defensive players, Like that's just
Speaker 1: so of the league. Mm hmm true that, Colleen, you're up.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, great. So, UM, I may have taken this
Speaker 1: in a wrong direction. Um, I just did general terrifying thoughts.
Speaker 1: So I'm just trying to do before Greg, before we
Speaker 1: decide whether it works. Let's hear what college says first. Okay, alright, so, uh,
Speaker 1: the first terrifying thought that really popped to my head
Speaker 1: was a really frightening one. Um, and it's how we
Speaker 1: will all be spending our Week eight in prime time. Really,
Speaker 1: we're just gonna suffer together because three NFC East teams
Speaker 1: are in the prime time windows of this week, and
Speaker 1: the scariest of all Sunday Night football. We got Cowboys
Speaker 1: at Eagles, Carson Wentz and I guess Ben Denucci. I mean,
Speaker 1: as if that isn't enough of a complete horror show,
Speaker 1: then Monday Night football we have Giants at Bucks. So
Speaker 1: it's obviously a truly chilling division. In fact, it's the
Speaker 1: first division in the history of the entire NFL without
Speaker 1: a three win team through Week seven, so it's historically scary,
Speaker 1: and I think most blood curdling of all is we're
Speaker 1: sentenced to watch one of these teams continue in the postseason.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna have to lean on each other through this,
Speaker 1: you know, really terrifyingly scary time and just stay strong
Speaker 1: because everything is very sinister. It's great, okay, absolutely, I
Speaker 1: mean this is this is so grim and I'll give
Speaker 1: you a little like preview of a terrifying thought on
Speaker 1: my own. The Bears and Rams have played in prime
Speaker 1: time against each other three years in a row. We
Speaker 1: don't need any of that anymore either. I think it's time.
Speaker 1: And this again, if West was here, he would absolutely
Speaker 1: jump in um. But it's time to take a step
Speaker 1: back with these NFC East prime time games. Understand the
Speaker 1: markets involved, but until that division gets it's pooped together,
Speaker 1: you cannot put that on your schedule. It's bad for everyone,
Speaker 1: including the networks. They're always helpful, and this is this
Speaker 1: isn't the last week. That's terrifying. We've got We've got
Speaker 1: Cowboys coming up in a few I think there's three
Speaker 1: more Cowboys prime time games. I have. I have the
Speaker 1: I have Cowboys, Washington and Giants and thirty in the
Speaker 1: power rankings. If the Cowboys beat the Eagles, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: get to put them in a four pack cocoon of
Speaker 1: sadness right just north of jets Land. I mean, that's
Speaker 1: where we're at. This is historic. It's really bad. It's
Speaker 1: really really bad for us to have to, like, listen,
Speaker 1: prime Time should be the most exciting game of the week.
Speaker 1: I mean, I even felt like this past week there
Speaker 1: were so many amazing finishes. Well there goes my microphone,
Speaker 1: got it. Look at those catlike reflexes. Uh, there were
Speaker 1: so many amazing finishes in the early window, and then
Speaker 1: we got to the afternoon and it was kind of like, oh,
Speaker 1: all right, well, thankfully we had the night game with
Speaker 1: Seahawks and Cardinals. But it just feels like every week
Speaker 1: they should just they should just flex things out every
Speaker 1: week and have the game of the week in prime time.
Speaker 1: We've seen, we're seeing, unfortunately because the coronavirus, that the
Speaker 1: NFL can sustain itself with flexibility and the scheduling. Maybe
Speaker 1: it's time to start protecting prime time a little bit more.
Speaker 1: I don't all right, I'm gonna jump, I'm gonna piggyback
Speaker 1: Connie off KENNFC East because I want to talk to
Speaker 1: Cowboys specifically. Here we go this terrifying thoughts. The Cowboys
Speaker 1: are now two and five. Andy Dalton is a mess,
Speaker 1: Bunny Blucci. It sounds like my neighbor back in Bay Ridge,
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Everson Griffin is on the block of rap sheet reported.
Speaker 1: Have you ever seen a more obvious UH signal? Sending
Speaker 1: up the old bat trade signal to the Seattle Seahawks
Speaker 1: after their Gholston on Sunday night, Please take our aging
Speaker 1: veteran pass rusher. You need him more than we do.
Speaker 1: Dak coming off a gruesome lower leg injury, and we'll
Speaker 1: still command Mahomesian money on his next deal. Dallas obviously
Speaker 1: needs to kind of fix this roster and get some
Speaker 1: more flexibility. Yeah, here's a r if I thought the
Speaker 1: Cowboys might be tanking for Trevor, think about it. Think
Speaker 1: about it now. Now the two wins is already putting
Speaker 1: you in a tough spot. I could put this flashlight
Speaker 1: on a new uh. So you almost have to come
Speaker 1: close to losing out to have any shot of it.
Speaker 1: But you wonder if they if things ever played out
Speaker 1: where they were either at number one overall or close
Speaker 1: enough to maybe make a godfather offer to get there,
Speaker 1: If Giarra would say, do I want to give four
Speaker 1: million dollars to Dak Prescott and try to fix a
Speaker 1: broken roster? Or will I take a uber rookie Trevor Lawrence,
Speaker 1: get the flexibility of that rookie contract and take a
Speaker 1: swing at it from a different angle. I mean, the
Speaker 1: fact that I even can pitch this as a possibility
Speaker 1: tells you how off the rails things have gone. And
Speaker 1: doubt it is. It is scary. What why? I don't
Speaker 1: think it would be easy to pull it off. Is
Speaker 1: that they still have plenty of games against the NFC
Speaker 1: East and they're bound to and I don't trust them.
Speaker 1: I don't trust you NFCS. I did, but I don't.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing, this coaching staff. Iff if even
Speaker 1: if you got everyone on board and said, look at
Speaker 1: you're all safe going into next year, I need you
Speaker 1: to find a way to lose. Like everybody don't need
Speaker 1: to try to lose. They're great at it. No one
Speaker 1: is better at getting blown out than the Cowboys. I
Speaker 1: just if you, if you tell Mike McCarthy and Mike Nolan,
Speaker 1: now your job is to lose these games, they will
Speaker 1: find a way to not get that job done and
Speaker 1: win three by the stat sounds like a movie, right,
Speaker 1: was really the icing on the cake? Oh yeah, I
Speaker 1: love that idea. What if the coaching staff was so
Speaker 1: bad that the ownership went in and did the Castanza
Speaker 1: move where it's like, do everything opposite, and then that
Speaker 1: team went on a Super Bowl run. That's kind of
Speaker 1: the fun idea for a movie. And there might be
Speaker 1: you know, it might not just be Trevor Lawrence. Maybe
Speaker 1: it's Justin Fields. Who knows, there's other QB prospects, it's
Speaker 1: pretty early. You're right. If the Cowboys are even in
Speaker 1: the top five area, that gets pretty interesting because as
Speaker 1: bad as the NFC East is, I think the Cowboys,
Speaker 1: even if Dalton comes back, are the worst by far
Speaker 1: because there those offensive linemen aren't coming back and their
Speaker 1: defense is showing absolutely no signs that they'll ever get better,
Speaker 1: like they could lose all those games. I'd be curious
Speaker 1: what a Cowboys fan would think about that. If you
Speaker 1: were presented with that option, it would be good for Dac.
Speaker 1: You know, Doac deserves to get out of this franchise.
Speaker 1: He'll maybe land somewhere else, so you know, it might
Speaker 1: not be the worst thing. All right, Mark, all right,
Speaker 1: this is um a vision that I received, and it
Speaker 1: it I find it's something terrifying to ponder. It starts
Speaker 1: off sweet and it's Patriots Patriots based. It starts off
Speaker 1: suite with New England falling to Buffalo thirty to sixteen,
Speaker 1: okay on Sunday, one day after Halloween. But then the
Speaker 1: Paths come out in week nine running the scheme that
Speaker 1: employs multiple centers in a dizzy rotation of backs and
Speaker 1: tight ends who received the direct snap wildcat style out
Speaker 1: of an old Air Force flexbone formation that Belichick has
Speaker 1: been studying. No quarterback is used, but Cam Newton has
Speaker 1: a major role. He has given the same giant shoulder
Speaker 1: pads worn by touchdown Tommy Vardell with the Browns in
Speaker 1: artifact that Bill Belichick has kept in a vault below
Speaker 1: Gillette Stadium. Here's where it gets weird. Can becomes a
Speaker 1: rumbling nightmare who averages a hundred and five yards a game,
Speaker 1: while Sony Michelle, James White, Ryan Izzo helped the Pats
Speaker 1: to become an offense that passes for sixty five yards
Speaker 1: a tilt but run for four hundred and six yards
Speaker 1: per game. Down the stretch, all right. They blow the
Speaker 1: doors off Miami, Buffalo and the Jets over the final
Speaker 1: three weeks, and when the a f C East at
Speaker 1: eleven and five over Buffalo by tiebreaker, oh they're back.
Speaker 1: They beat the Browns to seven in the first playoff
Speaker 1: till before knocking off the Ravens twelve to nine, and
Speaker 1: then beguiling the Steelers twenty to nothing in a contest
Speaker 1: that sees cam Izzo. When the Patriots hold the ball
Speaker 1: for forty eight minutes, you don't need steph On Gilmore.
Speaker 1: Then in Super Bowl fifty five, they surprise talking head
Speaker 1: chucklers by having Jared's Stidham out of nowhere throw the
Speaker 1: ball twenty straight times to open the game. He goes
Speaker 1: nineteen of twenty with one drop by our pal Izzo
Speaker 1: to build a fourteen nothing lead over the Green Bay Packers.
Speaker 1: Belichick McDaniels then come out of the third quarter and
Speaker 1: hand the ball off to Izo fourteen straight times. He
Speaker 1: never gets more than four yards, but never less than three,
Speaker 1: and by going forward on fourth down every time, they
Speaker 1: carve up Mike Petton's little defense as little boy with
Speaker 1: a beard freaks out on the sideline, that drive eats
Speaker 1: up fourteen minutes of the third quarter. Then New England
Speaker 1: answers a Teddy Bridgewater touchdown tossed to d J. Moore
Speaker 1: by having Julian Edelman go eight for eight passing out
Speaker 1: of the run and shoot out of nowhere in the
Speaker 1: final quarter with a touchdown strike to center David Andrews
Speaker 1: to the seven Super Bowl win. All our worst fears
Speaker 1: are realized. What a detailed vision. My favorite part of
Speaker 1: that was that is Oh would never run for more
Speaker 1: than four yards. Another lesson run for less than three.
Speaker 1: That's just funny to me. The first thing I learned
Speaker 1: in Pop Warner. We had this coach and he was
Speaker 1: a great coach, but he he would go I think
Speaker 1: to the old Kawana's club after work and put a
Speaker 1: few down before coming to coach. Boys up and uh.
Speaker 1: He told us this before every game. Look, all I
Speaker 1: need to do is get three yards on every play.
Speaker 1: And I was like, well, you know, we'd think like,
Speaker 1: but that gets us the fourth and one. He's like,
Speaker 1: we if you can get me three yards on every
Speaker 1: single play, we will go for it on fourth down
Speaker 1: every time, and we will maul every team we play.
Speaker 1: Now that did not unfold that way, I can promise you,
Speaker 1: but that was his theory. Are down when you drive
Speaker 1: home after a couple of Jane is just stable the
Speaker 1: speed limit and never make any illegal turns. That was he.
Speaker 1: It was a small town. He he knew his way home.
Speaker 1: Is that your worst fear? Though? Mark sounded like you
Speaker 1: might enjoy that, like you've still got some nine. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you kind of would love it. I mean, if you're
Speaker 1: putting Cam Newton in one of those like the shoulder pads,
Speaker 1: like come up to the top of your helmet. I
Speaker 1: think that is chaos. You like chaos in all forms.
Speaker 1: But that's not That wasn't terrifying to me, that was
Speaker 1: sci fi. That was that was fantasy because the Patriots.
Speaker 1: There's no saving this team. That's how we feel. Now
Speaker 1: you know what great coaching is gonna do for this team,
Speaker 1: Greg and I I'm I had Belichick as my Coach
Speaker 1: of the Year pick because I thought he was gonna
Speaker 1: be able to do it. But there's only so much
Speaker 1: one can do. I think he's gonna coach this team
Speaker 1: up to seven and nine. I think that's the ceiling year.
Speaker 1: Do you agree or disagree? Too many crazy things have
Speaker 1: happened in every season by that we never see coming that.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that's the ceiling because you never know.
Speaker 1: But I'm not have no optimism. What's the record on
Speaker 1: January one? If I had to guess, I would probably
Speaker 1: go about, yeah, eight and eight, and even that feels
Speaker 1: optimistic very I mean, they've been one of the word.
Speaker 1: They've been the worst team in the league last two weeks,
Speaker 1: right there with the Jets. Do you like the idea
Speaker 1: of just having a rotation of guys taking direct snaps.
Speaker 1: That is really innovative with multiple centers remembers, so like
Speaker 1: you don't even know where the ball is coming from.
Speaker 1: It's like he dips deep into like old Air Force
Speaker 1: schemes that were used to nearly beat Michigan in two
Speaker 1: thousand twelve. That kind of stuff. How exciting. Mark that
Speaker 1: was the best comedy sci fi since Spaceballs. Yes, another
Speaker 1: space Balls reference on the podcast. I don't get your
Speaker 1: fascination with that, with that, I've never even seen that film.
Speaker 1: What what one word? You love it? Right? I know
Speaker 1: you're a space ball San. Let's go around the horn
Speaker 1: one more time, Connie. I'm just gonna go Connie, here
Speaker 1: we go? All right? So where is it? Okay? Uh?
Speaker 1: Here's here? My my internet is a mess? My computer?
Speaker 1: Slow god. Hey, here's a truly terrifying thought. Though. Imagine
Speaker 1: just imagine for a second being chased by DK Metcalf,
Speaker 1: Like is somebody who only runs one being chased. This
Speaker 1: is a truly petrifying thought. Now, Buddha Baker not a
Speaker 1: slow dude, and DK Metcalf just full on sprinted the
Speaker 1: entire length basically of the field and took him down
Speaker 1: to the point that it even caught the attention of
Speaker 1: USA Track and Field, who invited him to Olympic Trials
Speaker 1: next year. So he's scary talented, he's only in a
Speaker 1: second year. He should be feared by all. That's my
Speaker 1: terrifying thoughts. I love that, you know, I would say,
Speaker 1: this is what a thing I would love to see,
Speaker 1: because the funny thing is, I crossed my mind after
Speaker 1: Sunday Night Show when you went through the whole list
Speaker 1: of all the crazy stuff, we didn't talk about DK
Speaker 1: running down the pick six, the sure pick six, which
Speaker 1: was one of the great plays. Uh, if you if
Speaker 1: you gave me an athletic contest of DK Metcalf, let's
Speaker 1: say Miles Garrett and then throwing Mahomes because obviously he's
Speaker 1: not as imposing as those guys, but he has these
Speaker 1: supernatural hand eye coordination gifts. And then just do a
Speaker 1: series of athletic events. I'd love to see, like who
Speaker 1: would win because net calf size, like combined with that speed,
Speaker 1: they maybe throw Derrick Henry and to get him in
Speaker 1: the competition too. I mean, it's just incredible to watch
Speaker 1: what he can do. He had like tree on that tackle.
Speaker 1: Baker ran a four or four five and then and
Speaker 1: it was running away from everyone else. That was the
Speaker 1: part of it that freaked me out. It's like he
Speaker 1: was running away from other receivers and other defensive backs
Speaker 1: and then Metcalf just comes from But yeah, I regretted
Speaker 1: not mentioning that as a big fumble. I've gotten some
Speaker 1: analytics people on Twitter a little bit annoyed because I've
Speaker 1: made light of the fact that don't tell me about
Speaker 1: the top speed thing, because everyone runs twenty one point
Speaker 1: seven miles per hour at their high speed, the fastest guys,
Speaker 1: but no, DK is the guy that broke that by
Speaker 1: going twenty three. I think it's scaring that critique boot
Speaker 1: Like Buddha Baker had a ten yard head start and
Speaker 1: somehow someway d K was able to catch up with
Speaker 1: him and then just basically absorb him on the tackle.
Speaker 1: I think a big thing that helped him was obviously
Speaker 1: Buddha has the ultimate momentum, he steps in front of
Speaker 1: the ball and he's gone. But when you showed the replay,
Speaker 1: Metcalf was curling out of his route, kind of coming
Speaker 1: back toward the line of scrimmage, so he was kind
Speaker 1: of going in that direction as well. That gave him
Speaker 1: the start he needed and then he oh my god,
Speaker 1: that was fun. If you put Metcalf at the end
Speaker 1: zone and me seventy yards away at the thirty running
Speaker 1: towards the other end zone, I'm not sure that my
Speaker 1: chances are good in that situation. Is that the whole
Speaker 1: eisen uh forty yard dash thing at the combine, I
Speaker 1: think they did that. It was something similar, and I
Speaker 1: think with the like the pre or they they put
Speaker 1: the little image of the of the haunting ghost player
Speaker 1: on top. Catch enough to eyes and sure, all right, great,
Speaker 1: give us another one. All right, I'm gonna give you
Speaker 1: two really quick, the first one just because I want
Speaker 1: to throw it out there. It's a trade I could
Speaker 1: see happening. The best deep ball thrower in the league,
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, the most unstoppable vertical offense in the league,
Speaker 1: and you just give them a little will Fuller on
Speaker 1: a contract year. Texans don't need him. Jack Easterby crawls
Speaker 1: out of his hole to make one last trade before
Speaker 1: they get rid of them. But my my real scary
Speaker 1: thought is for Bengals fans, and you think about Geno
Speaker 1: Atkins not playing, Carlos Dunlap not playing a j Green.
Speaker 1: You know, making seventeen million dollars in your last year
Speaker 1: of Bengals and you know what you do, absolutely nothing
Speaker 1: like the last thirty years in your entire franchise history.
Speaker 1: That's your nightmare. That's scary, that is that's what they'll do.
Speaker 1: That's what the Bengals do. That's by the way, Zach
Speaker 1: Taylor has three wins in twenty games. At some point
Speaker 1: you need to win some games. I know they're making
Speaker 1: progress on the competitive out, but at some point that
Speaker 1: was my Coach of the Year pick. I mean, there's
Speaker 1: still time, all right, Let's keep rolling here. Terrifying thought.
Speaker 1: Tom Brady kicked out Ricky wears my music. Tom Brady
Speaker 1: kicked out the door in New England. Don't listen to
Speaker 1: Greg or any of the other pr flax attached to
Speaker 1: that team. They thought they'd be okay without him. Right now,
Speaker 1: he's playing like a top three quarterback. Gronk remember him.
Speaker 1: He wasn't kicked out the door in New England, but
Speaker 1: he stepped away. He was done with the Patriot way
Speaker 1: and now he's continuing to improve. Antonio Brown hits the
Speaker 1: scene as pure Mr Big Chest and becomes a killer
Speaker 1: part of that offense, a defense led by Devin White
Speaker 1: knocking on the door of the superstar club, Anton Winfield
Speaker 1: Junior rolling toward defensive Rookie of the Year, the Bucks
Speaker 1: all these things together could become the overwhelming favorite to
Speaker 1: win the suburbal played in Tampa in front of ghosts
Speaker 1: because there's a global pandemic that ruined the world and
Speaker 1: that's scary pirate ship, where's the nightmare. It's a terrifying
Speaker 1: thought that this team, as great as it's playing right now,
Speaker 1: if Antonio Brown gets there and finds a role in
Speaker 1: the offense, and I think he just might. Uh. And
Speaker 1: with everything else the way it is building, and and
Speaker 1: the Brady thing, really I talked about on Sunday Show
Speaker 1: that jumped out to me. I mean, how awesome he
Speaker 1: looks the last couple of weeks, Like if you're gonna
Speaker 1: get that guy with this defense, and now you bring
Speaker 1: in the most productive wide receiver pound for pound in
Speaker 1: the history of the league, with whether you like him
Speaker 1: or not, a out to prove WHOA. I think it's delightful.
Speaker 1: I mean it's delightful for the NFL. Like Tom Brady
Speaker 1: at forty three, after everything he's done being supported by
Speaker 1: the best roster I think in the NFL and a
Speaker 1: great coach. I don't know, like signed, sign me up?
Speaker 1: I even. I mean I'm rooting for him this year.
Speaker 1: I think it's one thing it helped with getting getting
Speaker 1: a tenth at Super Bowl appearance to tie his buddy
Speaker 1: Lebron but go for the seventh title. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: all that is exciting, And if you are a Patriots
Speaker 1: hater and you've suffered through years, the idea that he
Speaker 1: left there and is thriving while Belichick is scrambling just
Speaker 1: to be halfway mediocre. I mean, all this stuff could
Speaker 1: not be playing out any better for Brady. Although there's
Speaker 1: a pretty big segment of the Patriots fan, maybe not
Speaker 1: as much in Boston, but I know a few who
Speaker 1: are kind of on board with it, that just loved
Speaker 1: Brady so much that they don't have the I think
Speaker 1: they're upset about the Patriots, it's not going to be
Speaker 1: their favorite team, but that they're they're going along for
Speaker 1: the right. And then there's a larger segment who it
Speaker 1: drives them crazy and it feels feels possessive about It's
Speaker 1: different than like it's different than Brett Farve going to
Speaker 1: the Vikings. He didn't go to the Bills. I mean,
Speaker 1: he's in a different conference and you have to be
Speaker 1: probably from Boston to not find some small enjoyment. And
Speaker 1: in half these Patriots fans are gonna go back to
Speaker 1: being Celtics and Red Sox and Bruins fans solely in
Speaker 1: about three years. So that's out started. End. I have
Speaker 1: one little related, last quick scary thought go ahead, and
Speaker 1: it's because looking I think that one thing that for
Speaker 1: all the all the fun poke to Tom Brady about
Speaker 1: his sports science, his diet, the truth of the matter
Speaker 1: is something about what he does, and it's d n
Speaker 1: A and it's everything else. It's got to be in
Speaker 1: right condition. He is forty three and looking better than
Speaker 1: most quarterbacks twenty years younger that can't even make the
Speaker 1: throws he's making. So I think about the fact that
Speaker 1: if you're the little Raiders or the little Bronco out
Speaker 1: in your outposts thinking hey, we're good with Derek Carr
Speaker 1: and we're good Withdrew lock and you know you thought
Speaker 1: you came came into the year thinking we have to
Speaker 1: organize our franchise to take down Patrick Mahomes now Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes plays as long as Tom Brady, he'll be there
Speaker 1: till about which is a concerning thought if he's still
Speaker 1: as good as Tom Brady is at his age. But
Speaker 1: now you also have to deal with Justin Herbert, the
Speaker 1: rookie that no one thought would be a factor and
Speaker 1: probably would be a dud, is looking like the next
Speaker 1: big thing, and suddenly the Raiders and Broncos have to
Speaker 1: pitch to their fan base. Drew Lock, you know, don't
Speaker 1: worry about his knee braves falling off as he dishes
Speaker 1: his knee into the snow and he can't make alls
Speaker 1: and the offense is a mess. We're great, Derek Carr.
Speaker 1: He's gonna be the same forever. But you're fine. You're
Speaker 1: in a hot, boiling tank of water. If you're in
Speaker 1: the a f C West. It's two quarterbacks now, not one.
Speaker 1: Very scary and it goes for the rest of the
Speaker 1: A s C. Yeah. I The only the only pushback
Speaker 1: for for that for me is I don't think the
Speaker 1: Rays ever really were in the Brady sweepstakes because, as
Speaker 1: it was reported, he didn't want to leave the East Coast.
Speaker 1: Wasn't that a thing? Well, I'm just saying that the
Speaker 1: Raiders car or Tom Brady for one year or not
Speaker 1: have to deal with Patrick Mahomes and for the next
Speaker 1: twenty years, and it was just Mahomes. Now it's two
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in your dad, Mark Davis wanted Tom Brady, and
Speaker 1: I did think about that while Mark Davis is watching
Speaker 1: um the Raiders from home because he refuses to go
Speaker 1: to his new stadium, which still which is awesome and
Speaker 1: weird but kind of awesome. But then watching Brady shred
Speaker 1: the quarterback that he not so subtly threw under the
Speaker 1: bus in March. M hmm, all right, good, so that
Speaker 1: was truly terrified. Colleen. What are you bean for Halloween
Speaker 1: this year? Uh? Well, so I just found out that
Speaker 1: they want us to dress up for t NFU for
Speaker 1: a segment, So I UM trying to come up with
Speaker 1: something very quickly on the fly. So I guess you'll
Speaker 1: have to wait and see. It'll be a big surprise
Speaker 1: for all of us, including myself. Maybe anybody transition. Does
Speaker 1: anybody have any ideas for Connie? How about tinker Bell?
Speaker 1: I feel like you would be a good tinker Bell. Yeah, so, okay,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I'm what I was thinking about.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about dressing up as a trash can and
Speaker 1: being the NFC East. That's perfect. That's so good. They're
Speaker 1: not going to do that right now. That's good. You
Speaker 1: should try it. That's good. Last year I was a
Speaker 1: wolf in sheep's clothing and I had them get me
Speaker 1: like the absolute most unflattering huge sheep costumes so I
Speaker 1: could be in that um and I like cut off
Speaker 1: the sleeves because we were in the desert. We were
Speaker 1: in Arizona for that game. So uh, we'll see. I mean,
Speaker 1: maybe they'll let me dress up as a trash can.
Speaker 1: This means crossed. They have no problem with you putting
Speaker 1: three of the market shares that basically carry NFL network
Speaker 1: in a trash can on on Thursday night football. This
Speaker 1: is what you do. I will run to Spirit Halloween
Speaker 1: Connie for you, and I will buy you the Tinkerbell
Speaker 1: custom you hang up. You hang that in the dressing
Speaker 1: room so they think that's what you're putting on, and
Speaker 1: then five seconds before you go live, you roll out
Speaker 1: in the garbage can. I love it. I love it. Alright,
Speaker 1: you guys have to tune in see what happens and
Speaker 1: see what I'm dressed up. There you go. And that
Speaker 1: is the transition to Thursday Night Football, the Atlanta Falcons
Speaker 1: at the Carolina Panthers. Falcons coming off another, I mean,
Speaker 1: just another just insane, ridiculous loss. We already knew they
Speaker 1: weren't going anywhere this year, but nobody needs that. And
Speaker 1: it did make me think, as Todd Gurley, you know,
Speaker 1: falls into the end zone for the go ahead touchdown,
Speaker 1: that actually is the steak through your heart. Somehow the
Speaker 1: Falcons pulled that off. Uh. Dan Quinn watching that at
Speaker 1: home with a bowl of ice cream? Uh? Did he
Speaker 1: miss being part of the action or was he just
Speaker 1: feeling free that he wasn't connected to the curse of
Speaker 1: the Falcons? I don't know. Uh. And now they traveled
Speaker 1: to Charlotte to face the Panthers. Matt Rules team continues
Speaker 1: to be competitive week after week, but they have lost
Speaker 1: two in a row. Connie, you anchor coverage of Thursday
Speaker 1: Night Football for NFL Network. What are you looking forward
Speaker 1: to here? Alright? A couple of things here. I still
Speaker 1: don't expect Christian McCaffrey to play in this game, but
Speaker 1: they haven't ruled him out yet. Um, he's pushing to play,
Speaker 1: and Tuesday they designated him for return from i R.
Speaker 1: So more than likely it's just he'll end up playing
Speaker 1: Week nine against the Chiefs, but there is still a
Speaker 1: chance he could play in this one. UM. Mike Davis,
Speaker 1: who has been his replacement, really struggled this week again
Speaker 1: or last week against the Saints. He's been dealing with
Speaker 1: an ankle injury of his own. Now he's on a
Speaker 1: short week. UM. When you go back to Week five
Speaker 1: when these two teams played last though, Mike Davis had
Speaker 1: a really nice day. He had a hundred and forty
Speaker 1: nine scrimmage yards in that game. But there are a
Speaker 1: few things that are different UM this week compared to
Speaker 1: Week five when they played last. Matt Ryan won't have
Speaker 1: to deal with Kawan Shot or Eto Grossmatos in this game.
Speaker 1: Obviously the Panthers lost short for the entire year, and
Speaker 1: then Grossmatos is on i R because of that ankle,
Speaker 1: and Matt Ryan on the other side, he will have
Speaker 1: Julio Jones this time around, which is obviously a big
Speaker 1: deal because I'm not sure this Panthers secondary. I think
Speaker 1: they're gonna have a hard time dealing with both Julio
Speaker 1: Jones and Calvin Ridley. Yeah, watching Julio last week with
Speaker 1: those option routes where him and Ryan are just trying
Speaker 1: to read the field the same, it's just a reminder.
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, it helps to have a first ballot
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame still playing, you know, Hall of Famer
Speaker 1: playing like really at the top of your game, because
Speaker 1: suddenly that opens up coverage for Ridley. It is a
Speaker 1: tough matchup for the Panthers. Um the Falcons are healthier
Speaker 1: in the back end to a j Terrell has been
Speaker 1: playing pretty aggressively Grady Jared's doing is I'm not saying
Speaker 1: this is a great Falcons team, but they're like the
Speaker 1: best one in five team you've ever seen. They they're
Speaker 1: about three plays away from one and six. There are
Speaker 1: three plays away from being four and three. They deserve
Speaker 1: to be one and six because they find these ways
Speaker 1: to lose. But they're a tough out. I think it
Speaker 1: will be a good game, and I hope Ted, in
Speaker 1: his only prime time game of the year, balls out
Speaker 1: because he's coming off maybe his best game of the year.
Speaker 1: He's throwing the ball so well versus pressure. He really
Speaker 1: reminds me of a young Breeze. He really does. I mean,
Speaker 1: not as good as Breeze, but Drew Brees doesn't take
Speaker 1: that sack leading to the sixty five yard field goal. Time.
Speaker 1: That was a tough one. It was interior pressure that
Speaker 1: came on a little quicker than he expected. You're you're right, now,
Speaker 1: you're right, You're right. Rule, Actually not even the Rule
Speaker 1: got on him yesterday basically saying he did have the opportunity.
Speaker 1: It was obviously water under the bridge, but he played
Speaker 1: a great game overall. I agree with you, Locket pocket
Speaker 1: presence is there. He and you know Matt Rule, I
Speaker 1: think Greg basically, when we had Matt Rule on our show, Um,
Speaker 1: you know, I've been really waiting and excited to talk
Speaker 1: to Matt Rule. Greg opened the segment up by announcing
Speaker 1: that Dan and I UM had been on a campaign
Speaker 1: flaming Teddy all offseason and asked what Matt Rule thought
Speaker 1: about the other two chumps on the show. Um and
Speaker 1: Matt Rule. I mean, the one thing I remember about
Speaker 1: that was his passion and total dedication to Teddy Bridgewater,
Speaker 1: the person, the player, the whole thing. And I still
Speaker 1: remain kind of suspect about what Teddy could be. And
Speaker 1: he's been great in this offense, I mean great and
Speaker 1: compared to what I thought he'd be se completion percentage.
Speaker 1: I mean, the one thing I feel about the Panthers,
Speaker 1: and we've already been through this what the expectations were
Speaker 1: for where they are, But they're good players are playing well,
Speaker 1: like Robby Anderson has used really well. D J. Moore
Speaker 1: has used really well. And I know that you know,
Speaker 1: the defense was really young. They're thirteen and points allowed.
Speaker 1: I mean, they're not a total disaster. At the same time,
Speaker 1: I don't love the matchup. I mean they let the
Speaker 1: Saints go twelve or fourteen on third downs and pile
Speaker 1: up four hundred and fifteen yards. And the Falcons, I mean,
Speaker 1: their strength is still that they can move the ball,
Speaker 1: and so I I think like it's gonna look to
Speaker 1: me like a lot of other Falcons and Panthers games,
Speaker 1: which is close in the fourth quarter. Um, the Panthers
Speaker 1: don't get blown out. They just don't do that. And
Speaker 1: for reason, I kind of liked the game. I'd almost
Speaker 1: want to go lock up the Panthers here, but we
Speaker 1: that doesn't really jive with our you can that I
Speaker 1: got other ideas because it's also one of those games.
Speaker 1: It's NFC South, be team between two wacky teams. I
Speaker 1: don't need that drama that night. And I will say
Speaker 1: this because obviously there is still, even in the midst
Speaker 1: of a two games skid, an ongoing love affair with
Speaker 1: the Panthers on this pot and that's good. I'm not
Speaker 1: a part of it, but I respect your guys admiration
Speaker 1: for this team. Better win a ball game on Thursday night.
Speaker 1: You better because guess what after that? You're at Kansas
Speaker 1: City home against Bucks and that's you know, that happy
Speaker 1: story about them being a playoff team. I mean, they're
Speaker 1: not going to the playoffs in this game or not.
Speaker 1: You can be staring at three and seven if you
Speaker 1: don't find a way to win this game, is what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Colleen. Now, you, of course, in one of
Speaker 1: your roles as the anchor of the NFL Network coverage
Speaker 1: on Thursday night football, is you get to interview real
Speaker 1: anyone you want. Basically, does I understand, I don't do.
Speaker 1: Does anybody ever turned down the opportunity to be the
Speaker 1: interview focus on NFL Network? Do you do they have
Speaker 1: that opportunity or how does that work? It has happened?
Speaker 1: Who's who's turned you down? Let's name names? Oh my god? Well,
Speaker 1: all right, I won't How about the entire Saints team?
Speaker 1: About six seven years ago there was there was some
Speaker 1: you know but basically gets first DIBs on whoever the
Speaker 1: interview is. And then sometimes guys will double dip just
Speaker 1: to like pull the curtain back. Let you guys know
Speaker 1: how it goes down. Uh. And then sometimes guys can
Speaker 1: refuse to do the double dips, So then we have
Speaker 1: to go with the second choice. Uh. Interesting, Okay, So
Speaker 1: let's say, uh, Fox, something horrendous happens to Fox gets
Speaker 1: swallowed up in a black hole. You get the first
Speaker 1: option for anybody you want. Who who would you love
Speaker 1: to be interviewing Thursday night? Teddy like it? Like abriage water,
Speaker 1: It's a good one. Can I want a credit to
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz by the way, who doubled dipped last week?
Speaker 1: I noticed so now that I didn't know that that
Speaker 1: was how you know it all it all works there,
Speaker 1: but I saw that he doubled when well, no, I
Speaker 1: would say, speaking of Fox like I mean Troy Aikman
Speaker 1: is one of my favorite players growing up, and I
Speaker 1: for all the people that knock in my love is like,
Speaker 1: do you are you in Troy like pals? Now? I
Speaker 1: see you guys like you're interacting online or on air
Speaker 1: and just oh my gosh, we go way back. Listen,
Speaker 1: we're all just like we have text change. Are you text?
Speaker 1: Have you texted with? Well, that's what I wanted to know.
Speaker 1: That's my part. I'm done, Colleen. I'm not even upset
Speaker 1: with you that you cheered from the stadium bleachers in
Speaker 1: when I was concussed with the old bed. Have you
Speaker 1: ever spoken to Troy Aikman, not on live television, like
Speaker 1: when we were on the road we would see each
Speaker 1: other and like you know, hotel lobbies and things like
Speaker 1: that and at the game. Yeah. Good, but that's pretty
Speaker 1: much the extent of it. Alright, good Erica. Are you safe? Yep?
Speaker 1: Here I am. That pause made me one extra second there. Sorry.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking maybe it's time to move away from the
Speaker 1: window because of all the harrowing things that happened on Sunday,
Speaker 1: And I know you went through a lot. When I
Speaker 1: saw that creep walk across the window, uh that that
Speaker 1: gave me the chills and I don't want to have
Speaker 1: to see that again. So if you could maybe move
Speaker 1: maybe get with a wall separating you. The window just
Speaker 1: feels an extra layer of security. Never hurt anybody, it's bad.
Speaker 1: And Thor's barking at the door right now, so I'm
Speaker 1: all like freaked out, like I'm I'm on the like
Speaker 1: there's a reddit post um where someone screen captured that
Speaker 1: moment where the man was seen between you know, outside
Speaker 1: your window, and it's like blowing up and a lot
Speaker 1: of people are concerned. Yeah, yeah, let's show that on
Speaker 1: that we put this show up on YouTube, right, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna give you a little extra work if you could
Speaker 1: and give us a shot of that for the viewers. Okay, Okay,
Speaker 1: she's like, I'm not going to do that. I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna hope in uh in Two Men and a Baby
Speaker 1: where you see like the ghost in the background, yeah
Speaker 1: you know, yeah that was real, by the way. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and a lot of people were commenting that you guys
Speaker 1: didn't take it as seriously in the in the moment um,
Speaker 1: but we all were sort of finding out in real
Speaker 1: time what was going on off are you guys were
Speaker 1: very great. We did use it for entertainment value as
Speaker 1: we're getting killed on the subreddit. That's nice. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: well we will do we will. There are subscriptions. You
Speaker 1: had a guest bedroom, like I could come up, like
Speaker 1: I can just leave the house like you guys were great.
Speaker 1: I also said we didn't cut all that out of
Speaker 1: the show because once it felt like it became a
Speaker 1: serious situation. We didn't want to make light of it.
Speaker 1: But you were like, no, I need I need the clicks,
Speaker 1: I need the there's that's what happened either. Now I
Speaker 1: didn't see it happen, but what I picture is exactly
Speaker 1: what I'm looking at it Dan screen right now, um
Speaker 1: with the scarecrow whatever villain behind him. So is that
Speaker 1: sort of what it was like? It was like, here,
Speaker 1: give me a full screen conn look at that. So
Speaker 1: this is basically what happened. That's the real sound. This
Speaker 1: is not added. Can Possy come come and live with me?
Speaker 1: Come just come to the ranch. I'm coming. I'm all
Speaker 1: the day because this this is uh, this was too
Speaker 1: close for comfort. All right, We'll be back on Thursday,

Speaker 1: week eight, And a reminder, um Thursday night, while Connie
Speaker 1: is doing her job on the network, I believe Greg

Speaker 1: in that apart of it, and now you actually have
Speaker 1: protection and not a But why is he barking like
