We'll talk some packers, We'll 13 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: talk some chargers. We'll also talk some cowboys. Like why 14 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: talk to the cowboys? Because of the cowboys. Now you'll understand upcoming. 15 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: Let me first start with the news of the day, 16 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 1: the news of the moment. Bruce Pearl's retired at Auburn. 17 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: He released a video which is on social media, just 18 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: came out. I just watched it myself, and he says, 19 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: now it's time obviously if you've been following Bruce Pearl. 20 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 1: He has some political aspirations. Something he said in the 21 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: video which I totally understand. He said, you know, if 22 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: I told people if I couldn't stay, if I was 23 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: one hundred percent committed, was an all in did have 24 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: the same energy, then I would retire. And there's a 25 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: lot of things that people have asked me about a 26 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: one year in And for the record, I love my jobs, 27 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: both of them. I'm sitting around yesterday, I'm texting with 28 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: my players and they're so jealous because I get to 29 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: talk about football. A bunch of are Packer fans, and 30 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: you know, they want me to just evisterate everybody today, 31 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: fire everybody type thing. Not really, and we'll get to that, 32 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,559 Speaker 1: but the one thing that really And Bruce's a friend. 33 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: I coached under him some with the Maccabiah, which is 34 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: the Jewish Olympics. His son Steven has not taken over, 35 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: actually played for my dad. We're good friends, so there's 36 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: a lot of ties there and I think ultimately Bruce 37 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 1: Pearl should be a Hall of Famer. I don't think 38 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: it's close. You know, they go to two final fours 39 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 1: at Auburn, they win champ. I think what five SEC 40 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: championships and some some variety with the regular season or postseason. 41 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: Pretty incredible. But it's a twenty four hour job, and 42 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 1: for me it's twenty one. But you know, while I'm 43 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: on air, the texts are coming. Now we have a 44 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: system to where everybody knows house got to be on 45 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: fire before you text DG during the show. But the 46 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: point is that it's a you know, it's like your 47 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: and and here's the other part is now you have 48 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: additional responsibilities. People believe that all you do is coach 49 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: basketball and then do interviews, Like remember when you're a 50 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: head coach. It's different at my level, which is the 51 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: lower level than Auburn at the top of the SEC, 52 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: but it's still the same in that you have to 53 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: manage people, your staff, your players, your practices, your games, 54 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: your donors. And for me, i'm a CEO as well, 55 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: like I have to manage all of the budget for everything, 56 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: which I know Bruce essentially does. Even if you have 57 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: people who are your GM, even if you have people 58 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: who work in administrative in those things that at the 59 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: higher level they help you out with those things, still 60 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: comes down to the n day, Like hey, coach, we 61 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: only have so much money. That number is much bigger 62 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: there than it is here. What do you want to 63 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: allocate it to? And then you know, if you've been 64 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: an unbelievable recruiter your whole life, you're not going to 65 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: stop recruiting. I would also tell you that though they're 66 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: still recruiting well at Auburn, like, the recruiting is different 67 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: now because some kids not at our level, but some 68 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: kids are just going for the money and you don't 69 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 1: get You also don't have the time to really recruit them. 70 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: You know, they hit the portal and you got to 71 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: make a decision and it's speed dating. So I don't 72 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: think it's just the current era. I don't think it's 73 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: the pay for play on its own. I don't think 74 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: it's any one thing. I think the fact that politics 75 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: are out there, the fact that he's just got to 76 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,280 Speaker 1: a final four, you're you know, I mean when we 77 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: were talking about winning one or two more games like 78 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: that doesn't make you whole as a person. And it's 79 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: really really difficult to do. And I'm also guessing that 80 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: the reason it was done now was he probably want 81 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: to do it at the end of the year, but 82 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: he said, if I do at the end of the year, 83 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 1: I want Steven to get the job, and they said, 84 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: we're not. We're not there yet with him, even though 85 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 1: he's the associated coach. So and Dean Smith did this 86 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: with Bill Guthridge. Other head coaches have done it where 87 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: they retire right before the year so that you have 88 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: to give it to their their chosen coach, and if 89 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: he does well enough, then he gets to keep the 90 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: job full time for a long time. So my opinion 91 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,799 Speaker 1: is college basketball lost an absolute legendary personality and fabulous 92 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: coach in a Bruce Pearl. My guess is he goes 93 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: into politics, which if he thinks recruiting was vicious, he's 94 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: got no idea. But he's a passionate guy and sometimes 95 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: it just takes passion and energy and for him something different. 96 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 1: You know, when you've been doing this thing for forty years. 97 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: I've been doing it for a year and a half. 98 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: I love it. Will you be doing this thing for 99 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: forty years, You're probably like, Okay, I've climbed all these mountains. 100 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: Now what All right, let's get to the National Football 101 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 1: League also got college football to talk about, and again, 102 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: there is probably a little piece of the college football 103 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: and the fire everybody mentality will kind of circle back 104 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: to it, which I'm sure turns Bruce off, turns other 105 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: You know, Dabo Sweeney was king of the world. Now 106 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: all of a sudden they're struggling. Do I think that 107 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: he's gotten a little bit arrogant with this process? Sure, 108 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: I think they don't recruit the same level. Sure, but Dabosweeney, 109 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: much like Mike Gundy. It's like two years ago, they 110 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: were really good. Actually, Clemson was pretty good last year. 111 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: So how do guys that will elite coaches for a 112 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: long period of time suddenly now we're in a new 113 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: era and they're not doing as well. We're not doing 114 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: well at all. Well, I mean, something tells me that 115 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: the sport is changing and you got to adapt and 116 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 1: adjust or perish. Anyway, we'll circle back to that. The 117 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: LGX Boom Grab is the portable speaker that powers your 118 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:36,239 Speaker 1: hustle from morning runs to midnight rooftop hangs.

Why does it feel like 123 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: the Packers lost to the Browns? Why does it feel 124 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: like that? Now? Part of it is this young roster, 125 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: but championship teams don't lose that game. Yesterday, third and three, 126 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,359 Speaker 1: three and a half or so to go in the 127 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: fourth quarter, the Packers chose to throw the ball instead 128 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: of run the ball. They run the ball, clock runs. 129 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: You know under three minutes ago, you punt if you 130 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: don't get a first down. Your offensive line had Struggledrunning 131 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: the football was arduous, right, it was a tough task, 132 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: and now all of a sudden you got Micah Parsons 133 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: for a reason that makes sense. Instead, they choose to 134 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: throw it and Jordan Love throws a perfect pass to 135 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: the defense. My guess is there was miscommunication because I 136 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: just don't think you throw it that much gift wrapped 137 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: to the defense unless somebody did the wrong thing. But 138 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: it's a game where you got to win those. You know, 139 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: you're two and zero in your division, a chance to 140 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: go to three and oh and kind of separate yourself 141 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: and you come up short. Here's Matt lafleour head coached 142 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: the Packers, talking about the loss. 143 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 2: Well, that was extremely disappointing. Obviously, to be in a 144 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 2: position to win the game at the end of the 145 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 2: game and to have the total the script totally flip 146 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 2: on you with the block and then I'm getting into 147 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 2: field goal range. It's tough, it's tough to deal with, 148 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 2: but you better learn from each and every opportunity that 149 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 2: you go out there and in the wins and in 150 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 2: the losses, and you got to move on. One thing 151 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 2: that we have to get corrected is, I mean, when 152 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 2: you have fourteen penalties in a game, it's going to 153 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 2: be tough to overcome that. So we got to do 154 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 2: a much better job of coaching the fundamentals, the details, 155 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 2: and then we got to lock in. 156 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, six fall starts, it's going to get 157 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: you beat. I mean, but it's one of those. You're 158 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: the Packers. You look back, you had a field goal block, 159 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: you had six fall starts, you had fourteen penalties, and 160 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: you had a really bad interception, and yeah, I get it. 161 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 1: Like you had two offensive linemen return from injury, but 162 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: they both left within reaggravating the injuries, and your offensive 163 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: line was just getting crushed by the Browns. Understood, still 164 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: should have won the game. And that's really probably the 165 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,559 Speaker 1: story of yesterday, right, is that the best teams that's 166 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: the Eagles, Right, That's the Eagles. It's the second straight year. 167 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 1: I mean even in the last year in the playoffs, 168 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: would said, well, the weather was better, maybe the Rams win, 169 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: and the Rams had the they were dominating the Eagles. 170 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: But the Eagles just find a way. Heck, I'm gonna 171 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: throw on a team that I didn't think played particularly 172 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: well for a good portion of the game was the Chargers, 173 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: but they just found away late. Whereas the Packers, as 174 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: great as they look the first two weeks of the season, 175 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: they found a way to lose a game they rightfully 176 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: should have won. Now, some of that is young teams. 177 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: You know, you have an offensive lineman, say they go undefeated, 178 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 1: but he's young. Young teams will surprise you with wins 179 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: they shouldn't get and losses they shouldn't have as well. 180 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: It's not an excuse, it's reality. But also the lack 181 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 1: of whether it's discipline, youth, or whatever. All those penalties 182 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: that's gonna get s beat every time. What gets you 183 00:09:55,720 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: beat line play, turnovers, penalties, and then you know mistakes 184 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 1: and special teams they lose to a team that they 185 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: absolutely positive it should beat. And by the way, congrats 186 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: to Jay stew who picked that outright win by the 187 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns.

You 269 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 1: can already be checked in. You could get up at 270 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: six fifteen to make your flight. 271 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, well they did. 272 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: Then you're in a bad mood the whole weekend, dude. 273 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, it wasn't worth the amount that we would have 274 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 6: had to pay because of the limited discount. That was 275 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 6: given by the airline. 276 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, what was it? 277 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: Uh? 278 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 5: What was that fat discount? 279 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 3: There? 280 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 5: Offered you big ten percent off, big ten big ten country, 281 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 5: big ten percent off. 282 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 6: Right, So let's see, so it should actually be like. 283 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: Was it American or were you on United? 284 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 6: Ten percent off? 285 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 5: Aren't they supposed to give you the full? 286 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: Were you on American?

Yeah. 288 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 5: Well, so let's say the hotel room at the Oheritan 289 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 5: or the Hilton was two hundred dollars because it's it's 290 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 5: right by the airport, so it's very convenient. So you're 291 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 5: saving twenty dollars. What good does that do? 292 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 6: Yeah?

Yes, 348 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,360 Speaker 6: that's definitely what I'm gonna do to al Michaels. 349 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 5: Herbie's former buck guy, so you wouldn't flip him off. 350 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: Herbie's the best dude. Herby's good people. Oh no, you're 351 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: clothes like you could have gone and see Herbie. Great dude. God, 352 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: he's always bringing a different Golden Retriever though on the road, right. 353 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 5: He's got to he's got his new one. His former 354 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 5: one meant it's you know, it's end and he's got 355 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 5: a new one now. 356 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: So that's my goal is to be able to bring 357 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 1: Barty on the road with me. But it's not he's 358 00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 1: he's a service dog. 359 00:17:58,200 --> 00:17:59,479 Speaker 5: But he's not Sideline mascot. 360 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: He'd be good. Okay, Sam, would you love for the weekend? 361 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 5: Okay, let's go to Friday night. You know, I don't 362 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 5: mind the Friday night Big Ten game or the Friday 363 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 5: night college game, but it's kind of nice. So it 364 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 5: gets it out of the way, especially if your team wins, 365 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 5: which Iowa did thirty eight twenty eight, as Iowa was 366 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 5: locked in kind of a crazy shootout with Rutgers there 367 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 5: in Piscataway and of the first quarter hits and Rutgers 368 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,640 Speaker 5: their athletics department, their football program did a really nice thing. 369 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 5: They did their own version of the Iowa wave, but 370 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 5: they used drones to make the form of a hand 371 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 5: to wave a little bit. They had fireworks and then 372 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 5: they had a big r drone drones. I feel like 373 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 5: they had fireworks too, But drones are like, you're not 374 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 5: gonna creep out the dog. They're not gonna make veterans 375 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 5: or people with PTSD feel like they're under attack. So 376 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 5: the drones are nice. They can do a lot of advancing. 377 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 5: So they did the hand, they did the wave, and 378 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 5: then they tinted the whole stadium read I loved it. 379 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 5: I thought it was a great gesture. If you want 380 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 5: to see video of it, it's at on my Twitter 381 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 5: page io Sam ninety nine. You can see it a 382 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 5: couple of tweets down. Just a nice gesture from the 383 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 5: Rutgers Athletics department in the stadium. 384 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 3: Therese, do I know you already touched on this and 385 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 3: this show, but I do want to give kind of 386 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 3: my perspective on the charger. So Dan got into only 387 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 3: like a tenth of what made the nightmare at O'Hare 388 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 3: a nightmare. I could not be more happy to be 389 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 3: back in my couch watching football yesterday and to watch 390 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 3: the Chargers from start to finish. They just they don't 391 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 3: win games like this. As Doug has stated, they're not 392 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 3: only three and oh, but they're three and oh against 393 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 3: the AFC West. They are out to such a great start. 394 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 3: Justin Herbert was getting his ass kicked all game long, 395 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 3: and he kept fighting through it, kept making plays. Naja 396 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 3: Harris is done for the year. I want to say 397 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 3: the Khalil Mack. I'm hoping maybe to get back, but 398 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 3: like we just the Chargers just keep winning. It's so 399 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 3: Unchargeda like. I love it. I loved it from the weekend, 400 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 3: especially because it was a night sing to experience after 401 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 3: the nightmare. 402 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: At Nightmare at Oha Oh, Charges Go Go. 403 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 5: Charga's wash was Philip Rivers. Was he the quarterback? When 404 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 5: they were into funny you ask funny, you ask Drew Brees. 405 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 5: Ah the last time they know to the Drew Brees 406 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,160 Speaker 5: led him to four and oh. Now here's the funny side. 407 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 5: They finished the year eight and eight, so I don't 408 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 5: want to take anything from that year. But Drew Brees 409 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 5: was the quarterback. Ladanian Tomlinson was in his what first 410 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 5: or second year, Marty Schottenheimer was the head coach, so 411 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 5: they had everyone but Philip Rivers pretty much. Jeez, what 412 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 5: a touchdown throw seriously by Herbert. 413 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 1: Like unbelievable, unbelievable. I mean, look, my love would be 414 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 1: that people are starting to figure out like he's really good. 415 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:51,919 Speaker 1: You had knuckleheads on TV that I don't think watched 416 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: game full games, you know, they watched mistakes and whatever. 417 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: But I honestly, I'm gonna give my love the weekend 418 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: to the Cleveland Browns. I love it in Cleveland Browns. 419 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: You're like, wait, dude, you live in Green Bay. You 420 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: like the Packers? I do, okay, But we have our 421 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: first practice today, say we get done. Our practice begins 422 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: thirty minutes after the show is done. And I've learned 423 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 1: a lot in one year. But the hardest thing to 424 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: teach us, I've told people is how to win, you know, 425 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 1: is how to how to win, how to how to 426 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 1: control everything and focus and finish the task. And we 427 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: just didn't. Last year. I had a really young team, 428 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: and I you know, I was going through kind of 429 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: mental reps of like six games I thought we should 430 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 1: have won. We did not close the deal. But it 431 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: wasn't just that they won. It wasn't just that they 432 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: kept fighting, and they block a kick and then they 433 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 1: kicked their own. It was did you see how seamless 434 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 1: that operation was of getting a couple more yards spiking 435 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,439 Speaker 1: the ball now that the ref is supposed to touch it 436 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: before they said it, But whatever point is that the 437 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns were ready for that moment, right, ready for 438 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: that moment. And I, like, I can tell you you're 439 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: getting ready for a game, and you're worried about how 440 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: do we stop them, and how do we score? And 441 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 1: what if they do this, we call it. If this 442 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: then that, If they do this, then we do that. 443 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: If they do this, then we do that. Right, You're 444 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 1: worried about all these other things. But that team that 445 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: was on the field, that was in the two minute drill, 446 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 1: they were prepped and ready and executed to absolute perfection. 447 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 1: Not just a two minute but the ability to get 448 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,920 Speaker 1: a field goal down, you know, to throw in the 449 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: middle field, spike the ball, get the field goal unit 450 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 1: out there, kick the field goal, win the game. And 451 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 1: I as a coach, I loved it. All. Right, let's 452 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: get to what we hated from the weekend plenty to 453 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,120 Speaker 1: talk about. We go to our resident hater, Jase. 454 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 5: Do what you up, Doug. 455 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:55,199 Speaker 3: I can't stand prediction radio. I've said on this so 456 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 3: many times, I know what's coming. Once I program a network, 457 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 3: I'm gonna and predictions. No predictions. It's silly, it's lazy, 458 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 3: it doesn't serve the listener. But on Friday, something really 459 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 3: neat happened. So I hate predictions. But on Friday, when 460 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 3: you weren't here, Dan Bayer and Carrie Rhoades were filling in. 461 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 3: Dan and I were doing the show from our affiliate 462 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 3: in Western New York. And I'm hoping that Dan remembers 463 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 3: the station's name, because I don't. I should have done 464 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 3: that much down. 465 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 5: Station thirteen forty WLVL. Oh, that could be a liner 466 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 5: right there. They could not have been more professional, amazing accommodations. 467 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 5: Thank you to Frank for that. Now, Dan went around 468 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 5: the horn during game time. It was I got DIBs, 469 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 5: and he's like, I got dis what's your upset specials? 470 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 5: What's the upset for the weekend? And something like this happened. 471 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 3: There are some home teams getting a lot of points 472 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 3: this weekend, So I'm gonna go with Cleveland getting it 473 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 3: looks like eight or eight and a half if you're 474 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 3: lucky Cleveland to beat the Packer at home with eight 475 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 3: and a half points. Wait a minute, outright or just 476 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 3: to cover that's a great question. I guess I misread 477 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 3: the question. I'm gonna go with the Browns outright, Pa, 478 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 3: Thank you? 479 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 2: So. 480 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:17,360 Speaker 3: Bottom line, I hate prediction radio until I get one right. 481 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 3: And then also I want to let the listeners know. 482 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 3: Did you see how clumsy I was with that prediction. 483 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 3: I didn't take it serious. I was mocking the fact 484 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 3: that we were doing predictions and I still got it right. 485 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 3: That should show you how flimsy your gambling expert analysis is. 486 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: Thank you. Wow. So it's my ted talk. Uh Sam, 487 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: We'll let you go second. Let me hate it in 488 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: the weekend, all right? 489 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 5: Well, I could have hated the Packer loss on the 490 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 5: road to the Browns in Cleveland. That's a low hanging 491 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 5: fruit for me because I'm a Packer fan. I did 492 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,239 Speaker 5: not like it, didn't care for it. I was here 493 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 5: at Fox Sport Trio watching it live. But I'll go 494 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 5: to something else. This is a hate based on fear. 495 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 5: I hate how good the Indiana Hoosiers look because they 496 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 5: come to Kinnick Stadium weekend and my goodness, the thrashing 497 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 5: that they did, the ninth ranked Illinois fighting a lion 498 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 5: and I the ali and I were in fact not 499 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 5: fighting that day. They lost? Was it sixty five to ten? 500 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 5: Als by fifty some points? Indiana, Indiana Hoosiers for a 501 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 5: second year in a row, We're like, we have the 502 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 5: Big ten has to deal with these guys. They brought 503 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 5: in the outgoes Curtis Rourke, who came in from Ohio 504 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 5: to Indiana. He brought them to the playoff last year. 505 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 5: In they bring in Fernando Mendoza from Cal stud and 506 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 5: this guy went twenty one of twenty three, two sixty seven, 507 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 5: five touchdowns, no picks. I watched a handful of Cal 508 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,399 Speaker 5: games last year when he was a quarterback at you know, 509 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 5: Pack two after dark whatever they were in the ACC 510 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 5: at that point, let's just say West Coast Football after dark. 511 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 5: I don't remember him ever putting on a show like this. 512 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,679 Speaker 5: This guy is a stud. I am fearful of what 513 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,400 Speaker 5: the Hoosiers might do to the Hawkeyes at Kinnick Stadium 514 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 5: next Saturday. They went from like a two and a 515 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 5: half three and a half four point favorite on Sunday 516 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 5: to now they're a over a seven and a half 517 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 5: point favorite on the road. So wow, Indiana looks like 518 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 5: they haven't skipped a beat. Kurt Signetti has he is 519 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 5: a transfer portal maven and so hopefully Iowa can get 520 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 5: out of their own home stadium with some dignity. 521 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:19,400 Speaker 3: Intact, hey, guys, real fast, have you guys noticed, has 522 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 3: there ever been a state on a bigger sports heater 523 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 3: than Indiana? Sam just eloquently put how good the Hoosiers 524 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 3: are playing? And they made the playoffs last. 525 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: Year, Pacers went to the finals. 526 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 3: Caitlin Clark and the Fever are the talk of an 527 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 3: entire sport and they just won their playoff game the 528 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 3: other day. I heard I didn't see it. 529 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 5: A first game in the sammis over the aces yep 530 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 5: after Asia Wilson took the MVP. 531 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 3: Culture three and oero Culture three and oh with a 532 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 3: guy that was counted out and Daniel Jones has not 533 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 3: turned the ball over once in three games. Has there 534 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 3: ever been a state on a bigger sports heater than 535 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 3: the Indiana state? 536 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 5: The state of Indian State. Indiana and Notre Dame went 537 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 5: to the went to the championship game last year, and 538 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,719 Speaker 5: India Notre Dame probably will write the ship this year. 539 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 3: Don Dawkits is just killing folks with right little sports commentary. 540 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 5: Don and Dan and the Indians. Hell of a couple 541 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,119 Speaker 5: of two years now, Hell of a couple two years. 542 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: Okay, let's get to you there, Dan Byer. 543 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 6: I'm nitpicking. I'm absolutely nit picking because it was a 544 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 6: banner day yesterday for CBS Sports. All right, you guys 545 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 6: want to know why? Why was yesterday a banner day? 546 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 1: Fiftieth fiftieth anniversary of NFL today or something? 547 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 5: Doug, this is how they started their broadcast yesterday. Loved it. 548 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 8: Yes, you are looking live you how amazing In Minneapolis. 549 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 8: It's a battle of backup quarter bred Musburgers. They dressed 550 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,120 Speaker 8: up hoping they can deliver in their seventies gear. 551 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 6: Brought that to the old set. It was magnificent. It 552 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 6: was just magnificent, Brent, the whole deal. When the Patriots 553 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 6: and Steelers played, the Patriots wore their throwback uniforms. The 554 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 6: on screen graphic used by CBS Sports was the current Patriots. 555 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 6: Oh come on, absolutely, yeah, my thoughts exactly Sam might 556 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 6: have been in the computer, might have been, but guess what. 557 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 6: Guess who else wore throwback uniforms yesterday, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 558 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 6: on Fox and guess what Fox's graphic Bucco Bruce brighton 559 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 6: orange in our face, perfectly positioned knife and teeth, and 560 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 6: CBS could not go that one millimeter more to replace 561 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 6: the flying Elvis with Pat Patriot. Yes, and everything was 562 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 6: great about yesterday in the throwback and honoring the fifty 563 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 6: years of CBS, and even the on site announcers were 564 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 6: dress stop ein Eagle and JJ Watt looking straight out 565 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 6: of nineteen seventy five. But that one minor detail could 566 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 6: have gone so far for CBS. They dropped the ball 567 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 6: on it. Otherwise a banner day, But let's bring back 568 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 6: Pat Patriot. If Fox can bring back Bucko Bruce, CBS 569 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 6: could do the same with another AFS with a AFC legend. 570 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 5: They should have had you look it over, Dan, They 571 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 5: should have had you. Yeah, nobody asked proofre it everything. 572 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 5: I was at O'Hare, freezing to death the night O'Hair. 573 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:34,959 Speaker 1: I hate what's happened to college football fans and broadcasters. 574 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: Fans and broadcasts. I was watching Friday night as Oklahoma 575 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 1: State lost to Tulsa, and look, congrats to Tulsa all right, 576 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: they'd lost their last two. They got a new coach, 577 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: They had a backup quarterback who transferred in from I 578 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: think East Tennessee State. He played really well. Oklahoma State, 579 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: Hey look good in the first drive and then stalled 580 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: out on just about every drive until the end and 581 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: ended up losing a game at home nineteen to twelve. Now, 582 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: people free, Now, how could you lose the toll? So 583 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: look two years ago they won ten games, they lost 584 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: to South Alabama to start the season. Oka these things happened. 585 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: What I hate is this, What was the point of 586 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 1: Mike Gundy being awesome for fifteen years? Now, of a sudden, 587 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: we're paying players and it it clearly they've had a 588 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: trouble adjusting. 589 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 7: Right. 590 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: Last year they had a seventh year quarterback who won 591 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: very good. The line they kept six year lignemen like, 592 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: they kept their whole line from that ten win team, 593 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: and they just weren't that good and they kind of 594 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 1: got exposed. Everybody else got better. And then this year 595 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: he revamped everything. There's something called sweat equity, and we've 596 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: completely lost it. Let me explain to people, Okay, there 597 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: was no Oklahoma State football before less miles and then 598 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 1: Mike Gundy. Okay, you had a couple of years there 599 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: where when you had Gundy in college and Hartley Dykes 600 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: and Barry Sanders and Thurman Thomas, right, they were also 601 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 1: they got put on probation, so they were cheating at 602 00:30:56,600 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: that time. Okay, And this program was built. And look, 603 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: I'm not sitting here defending Gundhy like he's Perfectay, but 604 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: he won ten games two years ago at the place 605 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 1: and they lost to South Alabama. They have a backup quarterback, 606 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: they have a whole new staff. It's a completely different 607 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: way of doing business. My guess is ultimately he'll figure 608 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: it out. But this idea that things go bad and 609 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 1: oh yeah, by the way, no one has ever said like, hey, 610 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: how much does it cost. They all say, well, it's 611 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 1: fifteen million dollars to get rid of him. That's not 612 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: how much it is to get redove him. The two 613 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: coordinators have three year deals at a million dollars apiece. Okay, 614 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: so that's six million dollars, or it'll be four million 615 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: dollars ode to each of them. I've been told it's 616 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: like fifteen million dollars to get the staff. That's thirty million. Okay. 617 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: Then all these players have to be compensated. I've heard 618 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 1: it's fourteen million, so fifteen, fifteen, fifteen, here're somewhere in 619 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: the forty five million dollar range, right, maybe a little 620 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: bit more because you're still paying that staff for this year. Okay, 621 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: then you gotta go get a new staff that's fifteen million, 622 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: and you're gonna get a new team. Well, this is 623 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 1: a fourteen million dollar team. Next year's team will be 624 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: a twenty million dollar team. They don't have the money. 625 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: You're talking about things that don't exist. So if you 626 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: want to write a check for eighty million dollars, then 627 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: by god, you can tell my gun to you built 628 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 1: this program from basically scratch. Okay, that he can. He 629 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 1: can go and right off into the sunset with those 630 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: But and by the way, he gonna take every penny. Right, 631 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: So I'm not saying it's perfect. I'm just saying we 632 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: get to this thing like people want Dabbo out like 633 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 1: he's it's like he's right. Was eight out of ten 634 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: years they won the league? Like what are we doing? 635 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: It's a completely The sport has been turned on its head, 636 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: turned on its head. People can compete that never could 637 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: previously compete because they have money and they can spend 638 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: it freely, and you have to adjust to how things 639 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: are done, and it takes guys a while. But usually 640 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 1: if you knew what you're doing before, you're gonna know 641 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 1: what you're doing now. It just takes a little while 642 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: to adjust, or maybe you don't. But I just hate 643 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: this knee jerk lose a game. Let's fire him. Let 644 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,760 Speaker 1: the season play out, and let's see. 645 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 5: What's what makes me want to beat. 646 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: Well? All right? And that is love and hate. 647 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 4: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 648 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 4: the nation yet.

Here here's Harbaugh 669 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: on Herbert. 670 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 9: I don't I don't think I had the vocabulary to, 671 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 9: uh to really express how great I feel uh with 672 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 9: this win and and uh just admiration for for our 673 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 9: team and for our players and coaches. In't just everybody. 674 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 9: It's just another game. Three wins, three uh three games, 675 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 9: and it's taken every buddy in all these games. So, 676 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 9: I mean, gritty, spectacular, That's about the best word I 677 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 9: can I. 678 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: Can come up with. He was he was gritty, he 679 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: was spectacular, And it's weird. Like I found myself on 680 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: Herbert Island last year, where I was trying to He 681 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 1: was bad in the playoffs, but they had no pass 682 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: protection at all and he had nobody to throw to. 683 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:26,400 Speaker 9: Right. 684 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: So the pass protection wasn't great yesterday. But he does 685 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,279 Speaker 1: have now he's got Keenan Allen back who's making plays 686 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: from another touchdown reception lab. But Conky's awesome. The rookie 687 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,839 Speaker 1: tight end's good. Yeah, one of his two running backs 688 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: blew out his achilles. But the rookies a stud. Uh, 689 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 1: there's a plan there, there's a confidence there, and maybe 690 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 1: it's harbo. I mean, Herbert was playing well last year. 691 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 1: Just nobody's watching.

It was so good, so good. 756 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: Red Zone was amazing yesterday. It's the Doug Gottlieb Show. 757 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio and every week we're 758 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,960 Speaker 1: just so excited to be joined by Tom Tolesco last 759 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: twelve years, been a general manager eleven years with the Chargers, 760 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 1: last year with the Raiders, and he gives us his 761 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,720 Speaker 1: unique perspective what a general manager is actually thinking, looking 762 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:19,720 Speaker 1: a lifetime football guy when he's watching this NFL season 763 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:21,919 Speaker 1: play out. Tom, thanks so much for joining us. Let's 764 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 1: start with last night Giants Chiefs. So the Chiefs win, 765 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 1: but there's lots of different takeaways. Let's start with the Giants. 766 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,360 Speaker 1: How does Russell Wilson And I guess maybe Cowboys defense 767 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: is the answer, But how does he go from how 768 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 1: he looked in game two to how he looked in 769 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 1: Game three and then the decisions he's making at the 770 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: end of his third game with the Giants. What's the 771 00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: general manager's view of Russell Wilson. 772 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 7: Yeah, well, number one, you touched on it already. I 773 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 7: mean last week against the Cowboys, the Cowboys. 774 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 10: Just aren't real strong on defense, and Russell Wilson, I mean, 775 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,799 Speaker 10: Russell's one. He's he's a great one and he has 776 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 10: been and a lot of times great ones. 777 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,920 Speaker 7: They can recharge for a game, or recharge for a 778 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 7: game or two, but to do it consistently at this 779 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 7: point of his career, it's just it's a challenge. So 780 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 7: and I'm assuming the Giants kind to know this was 781 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 7: coming because it's just, you know, Brussel has been on 782 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 7: since third team in three years, so they could have 783 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 7: had the expectation that you would give them a winning starter, 784 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 7: winning starter or play for seventeen games. But you know, 785 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 7: he played well against the Cowboys last week, but different 786 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 7: defense yesterday with the Chiefs. The Chiefs have a really 787 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 7: strong defense, they're aggressive, they take some things away, and 788 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 7: then you know, just you know it's going to be 789 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,920 Speaker 7: an issue. Whether it's Jackson Darter, whether it's Russell Wilson, 790 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 7: the Giants offensive line. It is just they're struggling right 791 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,799 Speaker 7: now and it's it's the same five as last year 792 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 7: in twenty twenty four, So I can't see it changing 793 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 7: much moving forward. And that's that's that worries me. Just 794 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 7: whoever the quarterback is, it worries me once start gets 795 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:58,400 Speaker 7: in there, because Dart's going to be in there at 796 00:40:58,440 --> 00:40:58,799 Speaker 7: some point. 797 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. What about the Chiefs? You know, you 798 00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 1: had a little dust up with Andy Reid and Kelsey 799 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,600 Speaker 1: that that I don't know your view on that, but 800 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:14,400 Speaker 1: they continue to be down wide receivers and like I 801 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: get you're not. You're just not going to get a 802 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 1: pathetic opponent like the Giants offense every week. What's now 803 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: that you've seen the Chiefs three times? What are your thoughts? 804 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, the the Andy Reid sideline thing with Kelsey, that 805 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 7: doesn't concern me at all. We've seen that before. And 806 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 7: I will say the second half the Chiefs played with 807 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 7: much more enthusiasm, intensity, whatever you want to call it. 808 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 7: It looked different in the second half. So whatever we've 809 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 7: talked about at halftime, whatever we're talking about in the 810 00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 7: sidelines in between series. It worked because I. 811 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:47,400 Speaker 10: Was just overalled that game last night just didn't have a. 812 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 7: Lot of juice to it. I mean from a fans standpoint, 813 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:51,920 Speaker 7: you know it was boring the boring side, from the 814 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:53,879 Speaker 7: GM standpoint, there's a lot of things you can take 815 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 7: out of it. But but you saw a different Chiefs 816 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,560 Speaker 7: team in the second half. But you know, offensively, they 817 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 7: still have the same issues. They've got the issues at 818 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:06,359 Speaker 7: both tackle spots and I think Josh Simmons, they're left tackle. 819 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 7: He's going to be good in time, but he's a rookie. 820 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 7: And the receivers just aren't quite creating the same separation 821 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 7: as you would like. But they found a way to win, 822 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 7: and that's kind of the way they roll. And they 823 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 7: played better in the second half, and they're a good 824 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:20,839 Speaker 7: defensive team and that's what they're gonna have to rely 825 00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,640 Speaker 7: on a little bit as the offense continues to come around. 826 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 7: It's kind of cool to see Taekwan Thornton really have 827 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 7: a nice game. He's an interesting player in college, like 828 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 7: he's he's tall but very skinny, like he was probably 829 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,800 Speaker 7: in the low one eighties when he was in college, 830 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 7: but has big time speed, and he's a really good 831 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:41,439 Speaker 7: route runner, and sometimes it's hard to find those those 832 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,920 Speaker 7: fast receivers that have really good route skills and he 833 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 7: has that. So he's getting acclimated with their offense and 834 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 7: getting acclimated with Patrick Mahomes, and he could be somebody 835 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 7: as we moved through the season, could really help them out. 836 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 1: Let's go to your former team, the Chargers. One of 837 00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 1: the former teams, the Chargers, and the plays look justin 838 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,799 Speaker 1: Herbert came through and it's amazing what Harbaugh has been 839 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 1: able to do with the mentality, right. I mean, as 840 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 1: a Charger fan and a friend of yours, I think 841 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:11,839 Speaker 1: the frustrating part for it didn't happen every year because 842 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 1: there were some playoff years, but it did seem like 843 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 1: there was the more often than not, there was the 844 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,320 Speaker 1: games that you felt like you should have won, that 845 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 1: you found a way to lose, whereas last night or 846 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,880 Speaker 1: yesterday it was a game which very well could have 847 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 1: lost and they found a way to win. How has 848 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:29,720 Speaker 1: that switch been triggered? 849 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:32,840 Speaker 7: I'll tell you what. When I was with the Raiders, 850 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,879 Speaker 7: we opened with the Chargers last year in Hartrot's first game, 851 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:39,760 Speaker 7: and just being the opponent. I could feel a difference 852 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 7: on their sideline. You know, I know it's very subjective, 853 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,320 Speaker 7: but I could feel it. But you know, Justin Herbert 854 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,399 Speaker 7: put on the cape yesterday. You and I have both 855 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 7: seen since the rookie year that he's capable of doing that. 856 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 7: I get for some of the media, I feel like 857 00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:55,440 Speaker 7: this is the new Justin Herbert, but not it's just 858 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:57,400 Speaker 7: the same Justin Herbert. But he had a really good. 859 00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 10: Team around him, and I think they're rook You know. 860 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,720 Speaker 7: Marion Hampton, He's a perfect running back for their offense. 861 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 7: He's just an absolute hammer. They've got a rocky tight 862 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 7: end and ron Day Gatston who is active yesterday, and 863 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:09,839 Speaker 7: he gives them a receiving thread at tight end, which 864 00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:11,359 Speaker 7: they haven't had in the last couple of years, really 865 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:14,399 Speaker 7: haven't had since Hunter Henry. So the offense is getting 866 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 7: starting to get moving. The defense is really strong, and 867 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 7: like you said, like they've played really situational sound football yesterday. 868 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,720 Speaker 7: And on the flip side, Sean Payton teams have always 869 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 7: mastered situational football. That's one of his hallmarks. But for 870 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:30,360 Speaker 7: the second week in a row, they didn't quite get it. 871 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 7: I mean, they had the Broncos had a lot of 872 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:35,919 Speaker 7: penalties yesterday. They just had some plays in the fourth 873 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 7: quarter the last two weeks that don't translate the winning 874 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:40,960 Speaker 7: which you don't usually see because I think the Broncos 875 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:42,879 Speaker 7: have an excellent team. They got stars on our team, 876 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 7: especially in defense with Nick Bonito, Zach Allen, Patrick Sartan. 877 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 7: But the Chargers just they willed it through in the 878 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,759 Speaker 7: fourth quarter. And I give a lot of credit to 879 00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 7: that coaching staff and the players they brought in. They 880 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:57,239 Speaker 7: got a really good football team. 881 00:44:58,239 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 1: Tom let's go our guest here on the Dug Out 882 00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 1: Show on Fox Sports Radio. Okay, let's sprinkle around the 883 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:09,400 Speaker 1: rest of the rest of the league. I don't remember 884 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 1: a team blocking two field goals in one game, let 885 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 1: alone in the same quarter, and the second one was 886 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 1: a manageable one, So usually it's not even a question 887 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,560 Speaker 1: that no one has a chance. What's going on that? 888 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 1: Jason Stewart, my producer, said something kind of brilliant to 889 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,919 Speaker 1: me before the show. He's like, there's two things happening. Once. 890 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:32,719 Speaker 1: Sixty plus yard field goals are kind of the norm, 891 00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: not the exception, and yet block field goals are a 892 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:39,880 Speaker 1: little bit more normal. What's going on with the kicking game, Well. 893 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 7: I might I have to see the tape of I 894 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:42,840 Speaker 7: want to see how they I mean, I know they 895 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 7: blocked it from the inside. I want to see where 896 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 7: the leakers came from to come between the snapper and 897 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:50,840 Speaker 7: the guard or the guard and the tackle. But the 898 00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:54,560 Speaker 7: Eagles have some big, powerful men up front. And not 899 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 7: that that was a long kick. Typically that the. 900 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:58,440 Speaker 10: Longer kicks the ball coming a little. 901 00:45:58,200 --> 00:45:59,799 Speaker 7: Bit lower and you do have a chance to block 902 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 7: it up the middle. But that wasn't that extraordinarily long 903 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 7: a kick. But yeah, I mean it's early in the season. 904 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:10,320 Speaker 7: This is where you tend to see some special teams mistakes, 905 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:13,719 Speaker 7: whether it's on returns with some fumbles, muff punts, or 906 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:14,520 Speaker 7: block field goals. 907 00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 10: They tend to even out over time of of course 908 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 10: of the season. 909 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 7: But the Eagles are just a really well rounded football team. 910 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:22,799 Speaker 7: They do what they have to do to win a game. 911 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 10: I thought the Rams and for the really second straight year, Chris. 912 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 7: Shulaz, that coordinator defensive coordinator for the Rams, didn't that 913 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,680 Speaker 7: outstanding job against the Eagles last year, did a really 914 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,360 Speaker 7: good job against him yesterday until the fourth quarter, and 915 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,319 Speaker 7: then the Eagles look, they I think. 916 00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:38,640 Speaker 10: They would like to run the ball, but in the end, 917 00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 10: like if we have to throw it, we'll throw it. 918 00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:42,239 Speaker 7: And they do it really well. You know, Hurst through 919 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 7: for over two hundred yards and they made some plays 920 00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:46,839 Speaker 7: with the receivers and then you know, special teams comes 921 00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 7: up with two big block kicks. So it's Eagles really 922 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:52,320 Speaker 7: have a full football team offense, defense, special teams. You 923 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:53,880 Speaker 7: saw that yesterday. They had to use it all, but 924 00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,320 Speaker 7: it was it was interesting to see how well the 925 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 7: Eagles kind of got the passing game going when they 926 00:46:58,960 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 7: had to get it going. 927 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:01,719 Speaker 1: Where are you on the touch push? 928 00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:06,800 Speaker 7: I can't stand it. I can't stand it, but you 929 00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 7: know my stance hasn't changed on it. I don't like 930 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 7: to play. I think it's a boring play and I 931 00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:12,840 Speaker 7: think if you watch how still the old line in 932 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 7: D line get up after the play, you can see 933 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:16,840 Speaker 7: how taxing it is on their bodies. But to me, 934 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,680 Speaker 7: the biggest thing it has nothing to do with how 935 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,399 Speaker 7: good the Eagles are at it. I just don't think 936 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 7: it's an equitable play between the offense and the defense. 937 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 7: And a lot of it's because the offense gets forward progress, 938 00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 7: so you know they can push as far as they can, 939 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 7: they get the further spot that the football goes. But 940 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:35,920 Speaker 7: at the defense, if they push the runner back as 941 00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:38,720 Speaker 7: far as they can, you know that runner gets forward progress, 942 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:40,800 Speaker 7: you know, no matter where the whistle was blown, So 943 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,080 Speaker 7: they don't get the same spot. So I just think 944 00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:46,600 Speaker 7: it's an imbalance between the two sides that have that play. 945 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:50,120 Speaker 7: I don't get caught up in people trying to penalize 946 00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 7: the Eagles. I mean back in the nineteen seventies when 947 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 7: the Steelers and Raiders used to beat up receivers all 948 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 7: over the field, and it just wasn't good for the game. 949 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:01,880 Speaker 7: It wasn't very visually pleasing, kind of competively imbalanced. You know, 950 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:04,879 Speaker 7: they made the change in the secondary that you can't 951 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:07,040 Speaker 7: do that, and it really wasn't even dead against those 952 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,239 Speaker 7: two teams. It's just, you know, we're trying to find 953 00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 7: a better brand of football. So I'm hoping they voted 954 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,239 Speaker 7: out moving forward and has nothing to do with how 955 00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 7: the good Eagles are And I just think it's a 956 00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:18,400 Speaker 7: it's a boring play to watch. 957 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 1: Okay, Kayler Williams. There's four touchdowns do interceptions. But we 958 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 1: started by talking about the Cowboys as you said not 959 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:28,239 Speaker 1: very strong on defense, Senator, that's very well said. Right, 960 00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:31,279 Speaker 1: that's incredibly they I can say that that is a 961 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:35,720 Speaker 1: bad defense. Right now they are lost. So how seriously 962 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 1: can we take Caleb William's numbers considering he's playing against 963 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 1: a team that just last weekend Russell Wilson looked like 964 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 1: Johnny Unitis. 965 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 7: Look, you have to kind of take this as a 966 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 7: big body to work and not just go week to week. 967 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:52,239 Speaker 7: But obviously it's it's a positive yesterday. I just think 968 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:56,240 Speaker 7: with Caleb, like, you know, his game is completely different 969 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 7: than Jared Goff's. So you know, Ben Johnson isn't going 970 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 7: to walk into the Bear and just run a duplication 971 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 7: of the Lion's offense. He can't like the receivers, the 972 00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 7: tight ends, the offensive line, the quarterbacks. Certainly they have 973 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:10,359 Speaker 7: different skill sets. So I just think as you move 974 00:49:10,440 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 7: through this season, you have to have some patience. Is 975 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:15,800 Speaker 7: going to take some time for both the quarterback and 976 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 7: the head coach to get a feel for each other 977 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 7: and for Ben to get a feel for what is 978 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,839 Speaker 7: Caleb really good at. You know, the Bear they ran 979 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 7: the ball a lot yesterday. Now they didn't get a 980 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:26,839 Speaker 7: ton of yards from it, but at least they kept 981 00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:29,320 Speaker 7: the pass rush at Bay a little bit, and the 982 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:31,600 Speaker 7: Cowboys don't have a great pass rush right now anyways. 983 00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:35,880 Speaker 7: But you know, he Caleb had a lot of define throws, 984 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 7: and I don't know if Caleb was ever going to 985 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:42,400 Speaker 7: be a anticipate windows opening and release it and with 986 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 7: ball placement, but if you can see a receiver like 987 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:47,839 Speaker 7: a defined read and see the open receiver, he's got 988 00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:49,960 Speaker 7: the big time arm talent to drill the ball in there, 989 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 7: and plus he has the skills to go off schedule 990 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:56,160 Speaker 7: and run around and me be a magician. So I 991 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 7: think it's just both just trying to get a feel 992 00:49:58,080 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 7: for the offense what he's really good at and what 993 00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:02,200 Speaker 7: they to keep improving on. But certainly with a step 994 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 7: in the right direction for the Bears this weekend. 995 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:12,120 Speaker 1: I would concur with that Lions tonight against the Ravens. 996 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:16,680 Speaker 1: What's the biggest difference you've noticed in the play calling 997 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:17,400 Speaker 1: and the offense. 998 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:22,440 Speaker 10: I can't take away yet, but there's definitely there's just 999 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 10: going to. 1000 00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:25,399 Speaker 7: Be changes for the Lions, obviously, and I think there's 1001 00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:27,719 Speaker 7: going to be a great test to see where they 1002 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:30,359 Speaker 7: are on both sides the ball with both coordinators because 1003 00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 7: to me, the Ravens have the most complete team in 1004 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:35,840 Speaker 7: the league, so both sides, offense and defense, So I 1005 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:37,359 Speaker 7: know there are lines are trying to run a lot 1006 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 7: of the same things, which is good to me. They 1007 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,799 Speaker 7: have a system that works. But anytime there's a new 1008 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:43,880 Speaker 7: person in that chair, you know the game plan is 1009 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:45,360 Speaker 7: going to be a little bit different, and then the 1010 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,759 Speaker 7: game day play calling is going to be a little 1011 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 7: bit different. It's just the nature of it. So it's 1012 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 7: still early in the year. I don't have any major 1013 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:55,160 Speaker 7: takeaways yet, but I'm curious tonight to watch how they 1014 00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:57,239 Speaker 7: can handle the Ravens because the Ravens, to me or 1015 00:50:57,360 --> 00:50:59,200 Speaker 7: even though they have some injuries on defense tonight, the 1016 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 7: Ravens are loaded on both sides, are really well coached, 1017 00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:03,960 Speaker 7: so it's gonna be a great test for the lines tonight. 1018 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:06,560 Speaker 1: Tommy, thanks so much for joining us.
