1 00:00:04,428 --> 00:00:06,628 Speaker 1: Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in 2 00:00:06,708 --> 00:00:29,028 Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio. Welcome to Good Morning Football. We are 3 00:00:29,068 --> 00:00:30,948 Speaker 1: presented by old trapper Beef Jerkey. The best in the 4 00:00:30,948 --> 00:00:33,428 Speaker 1: business is Kyle Mentioned. That is Kyle Brand, That's Peter Schreeger, 5 00:00:33,468 --> 00:00:35,988 Speaker 1: that's Shan O'Hara. This is New York City. It's what 6 00:00:36,068 --> 00:00:38,828 Speaker 1: day is it today? Tuesday? And we're doing a show 7 00:00:38,868 --> 00:00:41,748 Speaker 1: because we're wrapping up week six. We are analyzing a 8 00:00:41,788 --> 00:00:44,108 Speaker 1: bit what has been happening to some teams that maybe 9 00:00:44,108 --> 00:00:45,748 Speaker 1: things aren't starting to go well. And then we're gonna 10 00:00:45,748 --> 00:00:47,108 Speaker 1: pick up the pace and we're gonna look ahead to 11 00:00:47,148 --> 00:00:49,788 Speaker 1: week seven as well. Let's go bring it up for 12 00:00:49,828 --> 00:00:53,908 Speaker 1: the lead block. All right, you'd have to say Tom 13 00:00:53,948 --> 00:00:56,668 Speaker 1: Brady's weekend, it was looking great. He got to go 14 00:00:56,708 --> 00:00:59,028 Speaker 1: to a fancy party in New York City, and then 15 00:00:59,148 --> 00:01:01,588 Speaker 1: it started to go a bit downhill. After attending Robert 16 00:01:01,628 --> 00:01:04,468 Speaker 1: Croft's wedding on Friday night, the Buccaneers often struggled in 17 00:01:04,508 --> 00:01:07,028 Speaker 1: a twenty to eighteen loss to the Steelers. Brady was 18 00:01:07,068 --> 00:01:10,228 Speaker 1: not shy about letting his workmates know their efforts weren't 19 00:01:10,268 --> 00:01:12,868 Speaker 1: quite up to TV twelve standards. He said, not a 20 00:01:12,868 --> 00:01:15,388 Speaker 1: good day if there's more f bombs and touchdowns, and 21 00:01:15,388 --> 00:01:19,428 Speaker 1: then he tweeted this football is heart. We're not playing 22 00:01:19,468 --> 00:01:21,948 Speaker 1: like we are capable. We are in it together. We're 23 00:01:22,028 --> 00:01:25,508 Speaker 1: all in this note We'll turn it around hashtag go Bucks. Brady, 24 00:01:25,548 --> 00:01:27,548 Speaker 1: though not the only future Hall of Fame quarterback at 25 00:01:27,548 --> 00:01:29,348 Speaker 1: the helm of a struggling squad. Aaron Rodgers and the 26 00:01:29,388 --> 00:01:33,628 Speaker 1: Packers finding themselves in similar dire straits, both teams in 27 00:01:33,948 --> 00:01:37,388 Speaker 1: or near the bottom half of these offensive statistics really 28 00:01:37,428 --> 00:01:39,388 Speaker 1: not what you're expecting. When you think those two logos 29 00:01:39,388 --> 00:01:42,188 Speaker 1: and the quarterbacks that go hand in hand, question becomes 30 00:01:42,468 --> 00:01:45,348 Speaker 1: it's Buccaneers, it's Packers. Who do you have more faith 31 00:01:45,628 --> 00:01:52,548 Speaker 1: in turning the ship around? Pita November twenty ninth, twenty twenty, 32 00:01:53,468 --> 00:01:56,468 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers were down big and came back, and they 33 00:01:56,548 --> 00:01:58,228 Speaker 1: cut it close and then end up losing to the 34 00:01:58,308 --> 00:02:01,148 Speaker 1: Chiefs twenty seven twenty four. That day they were seven 35 00:02:01,188 --> 00:02:04,948 Speaker 1: and five. They own in their bye week, beat Minntes Soda, 36 00:02:05,108 --> 00:02:09,228 Speaker 1: beat Atlanta, beat Detroit, beat Atlanta again, beat Washington in 37 00:02:09,268 --> 00:02:11,508 Speaker 1: the playoffs, beat New Orleans in the playoffs, beat Green 38 00:02:11,548 --> 00:02:13,068 Speaker 1: Bay in the playoffs, and then beat the Chiefs in 39 00:02:13,068 --> 00:02:15,828 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. They didn't lose another game. The Buccaneers 40 00:02:15,828 --> 00:02:17,988 Speaker 1: have been down this road before, and the bulk of 41 00:02:18,028 --> 00:02:21,748 Speaker 1: that team is back again, and they're here and they're 42 00:02:21,748 --> 00:02:24,628 Speaker 1: in similar crosshairs right now. They've got Carolina this weekend. 43 00:02:24,828 --> 00:02:27,348 Speaker 1: They'll beat Carolina. They will, and then they've got to 44 00:02:27,348 --> 00:02:29,548 Speaker 1: look at that schedule and say, the NFC right now 45 00:02:29,828 --> 00:02:32,668 Speaker 1: is absolutely wide open. Not only are the Packers struggling 46 00:02:32,668 --> 00:02:34,708 Speaker 1: and the Rams are struggling, you could look at all 47 00:02:34,708 --> 00:02:37,868 Speaker 1: the other teams that aren't hot. The Eagles will beat 48 00:02:37,868 --> 00:02:39,788 Speaker 1: them in the playoffs last year, the Cowboys, we've owned 49 00:02:39,828 --> 00:02:42,268 Speaker 1: them the last couple of years. Even within the division. 50 00:02:42,508 --> 00:02:44,788 Speaker 1: The Saints aren't what they used to be. Atlanta's an upstart, 51 00:02:44,828 --> 00:02:46,628 Speaker 1: but we just beat them. Like if you're the Buccaneers, 52 00:02:46,628 --> 00:02:49,148 Speaker 1: you're look at each other saying, this last week's stunk. 53 00:02:49,228 --> 00:02:51,308 Speaker 1: We should have beat the Steelers. We're better than the Steelers, 54 00:02:51,308 --> 00:02:53,708 Speaker 1: but sometimes those other teams have our numbers. I look 55 00:02:53,748 --> 00:02:57,148 Speaker 1: around the locker room. There's more talent in Tampa Bay 56 00:02:57,188 --> 00:02:58,988 Speaker 1: than there is in Green Bay right now. And I'm 57 00:02:59,028 --> 00:03:01,068 Speaker 1: sorry to all those Green Bay players might be watching. 58 00:03:01,108 --> 00:03:03,428 Speaker 1: But when you've got Mike Evans still on this roster, 59 00:03:03,508 --> 00:03:05,988 Speaker 1: and you've got Devin White, and you've got Leonard Fournett, 60 00:03:06,028 --> 00:03:08,388 Speaker 1: and you've got I can go through the names, guys. 61 00:03:08,508 --> 00:03:12,388 Speaker 1: Fidabe is still really good. Okay. We know that this 62 00:03:12,428 --> 00:03:15,348 Speaker 1: team has got the talent at the key positions and 63 00:03:15,388 --> 00:03:18,708 Speaker 1: that they have all been there before. Yeah, the same 64 00:03:18,748 --> 00:03:21,348 Speaker 1: pieces aren't all there. We know Ali, Marpett and Gronk 65 00:03:21,388 --> 00:03:23,268 Speaker 1: aren't walking through the door to save the day. And 66 00:03:23,588 --> 00:03:26,068 Speaker 1: of course there are some different guys who have moved 67 00:03:26,068 --> 00:03:28,588 Speaker 1: on to greener pastors, if you will. But if I'm 68 00:03:28,628 --> 00:03:31,468 Speaker 1: a Buccaneers player, we got Carolina this weekend. We win 69 00:03:31,548 --> 00:03:33,988 Speaker 1: this game. The NFC is still wide open. Oh, are 70 00:03:33,988 --> 00:03:36,628 Speaker 1: scared of? The Philadelphia Eagles beat him twice last year? 71 00:03:36,788 --> 00:03:39,348 Speaker 1: Let's go. I still think of the Buccaneers have a 72 00:03:39,428 --> 00:03:41,948 Speaker 1: chance to turn this thing around. Brady's issues are not. 73 00:03:42,508 --> 00:03:44,948 Speaker 1: This season's long from done, and those guys are a 74 00:03:45,068 --> 00:03:47,028 Speaker 1: unit that have been through this before. They were seven 75 00:03:47,068 --> 00:03:48,788 Speaker 1: and five couple years gonna want a Super Bowl, They'll 76 00:03:48,828 --> 00:03:50,908 Speaker 1: be Okay. Yeah, I'm with your shregs on this one. 77 00:03:51,188 --> 00:03:53,628 Speaker 1: Look we're talking about writing the ship. They've been there before, 78 00:03:53,828 --> 00:03:55,948 Speaker 1: done that before. How about Look if you're on a 79 00:03:55,988 --> 00:03:58,788 Speaker 1: boat right now and you're searching for you know, the 80 00:03:58,868 --> 00:04:01,628 Speaker 1: buried treasure right now, Why wouldn't you take Captain Jack Sparrow. 81 00:04:01,628 --> 00:04:03,508 Speaker 1: Why wouldn't you take Tom Brady right now? All right, 82 00:04:03,508 --> 00:04:06,268 Speaker 1: he's found the booty before he knows exactly where it is. 83 00:04:06,748 --> 00:04:08,748 Speaker 1: The packers Aaron Rodgers. For some reason, every time he 84 00:04:08,748 --> 00:04:10,828 Speaker 1: goes out looking for the pirate's booty he ends up 85 00:04:10,868 --> 00:04:13,988 Speaker 1: shipwrecked on a deserted island. All right, after a thirteen 86 00:04:14,028 --> 00:04:15,748 Speaker 1: to three seasons. So yeah, I'll take the bucks all 87 00:04:15,828 --> 00:04:18,428 Speaker 1: day long. I think this defense, to your point, phenomenal. 88 00:04:18,428 --> 00:04:20,228 Speaker 1: I mean, seventeen sacks already third most in the league. 89 00:04:20,228 --> 00:04:24,428 Speaker 1: They're getting after people offensively. I looked at that photo 90 00:04:24,548 --> 00:04:27,268 Speaker 1: from that tweet, and it's funny. I'll Tom Brady is 91 00:04:27,268 --> 00:04:29,388 Speaker 1: saying we could play a lot better. And then it 92 00:04:29,428 --> 00:04:31,548 Speaker 1: wasn't just a photo of him, it was a photo 93 00:04:31,548 --> 00:04:33,348 Speaker 1: of two offensive linement. It was his left guard Luke 94 00:04:33,348 --> 00:04:36,788 Speaker 1: Gtikey and his center Robert Hainsley. And of all the 95 00:04:36,788 --> 00:04:38,628 Speaker 1: pictures for him to pick, I'm just you know, I 96 00:04:38,908 --> 00:04:40,188 Speaker 1: look at it and I say, oh, that's great. Did 97 00:04:40,188 --> 00:04:41,468 Speaker 1: he showed his aliamis in love? But I think he 98 00:04:41,508 --> 00:04:43,028 Speaker 1: was also trying to light a fire into them, like, hey, 99 00:04:43,068 --> 00:04:44,788 Speaker 1: we've all got to play a little bit better, and 100 00:04:44,868 --> 00:04:47,108 Speaker 1: they serve and will do that offensively. I put my 101 00:04:47,148 --> 00:04:50,668 Speaker 1: trust in the team. There's a photo right them up. Hey, 102 00:04:50,828 --> 00:04:54,788 Speaker 1: we're in it together. Boys, We'll turn it around. I'll 103 00:04:54,828 --> 00:04:58,348 Speaker 1: put you in the photo for a reason. Well, look, 104 00:04:58,348 --> 00:05:00,428 Speaker 1: there's a couple of things here. There's the just the 105 00:05:01,308 --> 00:05:04,108 Speaker 1: blind faith and Brady, which we've all developed over the years. 106 00:05:04,108 --> 00:05:06,868 Speaker 1: And then there's Peter's take about we've done it, and 107 00:05:06,908 --> 00:05:09,028 Speaker 1: we did it and this group has it, and like 108 00:05:09,148 --> 00:05:12,348 Speaker 1: that's makes perfect sense. It's also just kind of convenient. 109 00:05:12,948 --> 00:05:15,708 Speaker 1: Isn't this different? Is there something different going on here? 110 00:05:15,748 --> 00:05:20,308 Speaker 1: It's two years ago? Is bratty? Okay? What I mean 111 00:05:20,388 --> 00:05:23,508 Speaker 1: by that is it's just two years older. Forty five 112 00:05:23,588 --> 00:05:25,628 Speaker 1: years old. We throw it around all the time. That's 113 00:05:25,628 --> 00:05:29,828 Speaker 1: an old dude. And I don't know, emotionally, seems to 114 00:05:29,868 --> 00:05:33,068 Speaker 1: be maybe really up and down. Physically, I don't know. 115 00:05:33,988 --> 00:05:36,588 Speaker 1: I don't think he looks good physically, I don't. I 116 00:05:36,628 --> 00:05:38,508 Speaker 1: know he has a different health program than most of us, 117 00:05:38,508 --> 00:05:40,828 Speaker 1: and he's body is temple on all that, and then 118 00:05:40,948 --> 00:05:43,428 Speaker 1: you know he goes on this podcast, or he speaks 119 00:05:43,428 --> 00:05:45,748 Speaker 1: to the media and he tries to diffuse and he 120 00:05:45,788 --> 00:05:48,428 Speaker 1: tries to say positive, which I respect, but I just 121 00:05:48,828 --> 00:05:51,308 Speaker 1: is that the real, genuine article if he were to 122 00:05:51,308 --> 00:05:53,908 Speaker 1: come out and say, you know, I'm not having some 123 00:05:53,948 --> 00:05:55,668 Speaker 1: missues in my family life right now that I'm really 124 00:05:55,788 --> 00:05:57,508 Speaker 1: fighting through and it's been tough, and I'm trying to 125 00:05:57,548 --> 00:06:00,308 Speaker 1: bond together with my football family, and you know, it's 126 00:06:00,308 --> 00:06:02,348 Speaker 1: been tough. And I committed to this season, but I 127 00:06:02,388 --> 00:06:04,948 Speaker 1: have other responsibilities and frankly, I'm getting older, I have 128 00:06:04,948 --> 00:06:07,188 Speaker 1: other interests, and maybe the desire isn't there to be 129 00:06:07,228 --> 00:06:09,788 Speaker 1: there all week. Like I would totally get it, like, man, 130 00:06:09,828 --> 00:06:11,588 Speaker 1: I'm with you. You know, when he started the season 131 00:06:11,628 --> 00:06:13,388 Speaker 1: and he goes, look, man, I got a lot of 132 00:06:13,388 --> 00:06:16,268 Speaker 1: bleep going on. I was like, wow, Tom, I feel 133 00:06:16,668 --> 00:06:19,268 Speaker 1: I feel you now is like refreshing. Every single person 134 00:06:19,388 --> 00:06:23,988 Speaker 1: was like, that's so, and that's how fine. You're You're human, 135 00:06:24,108 --> 00:06:28,668 Speaker 1: you bleed. Can that person be like, let's pull ourselves 136 00:06:28,788 --> 00:06:31,068 Speaker 1: up by our bootstraps and like, man, we're gonna win 137 00:06:31,108 --> 00:06:32,868 Speaker 1: the division and we're gonna in the playoff game. I 138 00:06:32,908 --> 00:06:34,228 Speaker 1: just don't know if he has it in them, and 139 00:06:34,268 --> 00:06:36,068 Speaker 1: I don't blame him if he doesn't heave it in them. 140 00:06:36,108 --> 00:06:38,588 Speaker 1: But everything Peter says makes perfect sense. Two years ago 141 00:06:38,588 --> 00:06:40,508 Speaker 1: they were down and they rallied together and everything, and 142 00:06:40,708 --> 00:06:43,228 Speaker 1: that's all great. I get it. It just feels different 143 00:06:43,268 --> 00:06:45,188 Speaker 1: at it. It feels different, and a lot of times 144 00:06:45,228 --> 00:06:47,228 Speaker 1: it feels different with Brady and then and all of 145 00:06:47,268 --> 00:06:49,228 Speaker 1: a sudden they're on a podium with a Super Bowl champ. 146 00:06:49,268 --> 00:06:53,108 Speaker 1: I just don't know. I feel like something is a miss, 147 00:06:53,388 --> 00:06:57,628 Speaker 1: either emotionally or physically or motivationally. And I don't blame 148 00:06:57,668 --> 00:07:00,028 Speaker 1: any of It's all very human, but it concerns me 149 00:07:00,068 --> 00:07:02,308 Speaker 1: as it pertains to the bucks of this year. That's it, 150 00:07:02,548 --> 00:07:04,548 Speaker 1: you know, when when this question was posed of us 151 00:07:04,628 --> 00:07:07,148 Speaker 1: last night, and I felt you feel compelled to pick 152 00:07:07,308 --> 00:07:09,988 Speaker 1: an answer, and frankly, I kind of just want to 153 00:07:09,988 --> 00:07:14,228 Speaker 1: go neither or both, or the air is out of 154 00:07:14,268 --> 00:07:17,028 Speaker 1: the tires. When you just physically look at these two 155 00:07:17,068 --> 00:07:19,708 Speaker 1: quarterbacks and we keep looking at these guys because they 156 00:07:19,788 --> 00:07:22,148 Speaker 1: are the leader of the pack. When Aaron Rodgers gets 157 00:07:22,228 --> 00:07:24,988 Speaker 1: up of the podium this week, he just looks dejected 158 00:07:25,028 --> 00:07:27,188 Speaker 1: and frustrated, and he is speaking out a little bit 159 00:07:27,228 --> 00:07:30,188 Speaker 1: into an existence, but also in very strange phrases with 160 00:07:30,268 --> 00:07:32,788 Speaker 1: the don't let any leaks come out of the locker 161 00:07:32,868 --> 00:07:34,388 Speaker 1: room and we have to simplify things. But then his 162 00:07:34,468 --> 00:07:36,868 Speaker 1: head coach doesn't know what he's talking about, and then 163 00:07:36,868 --> 00:07:39,228 Speaker 1: Brady comes out and you know what I'm hearing from you, Kyle, 164 00:07:39,348 --> 00:07:42,548 Speaker 1: is like, you need both of these guys to be 165 00:07:42,588 --> 00:07:45,228 Speaker 1: relatable to the people that love them, but also the 166 00:07:45,268 --> 00:07:47,628 Speaker 1: players that are playing with and for them, And I 167 00:07:47,668 --> 00:07:50,308 Speaker 1: don't think that there's much relatable going on between Aaron Rodgers, 168 00:07:50,308 --> 00:07:52,668 Speaker 1: the veteran and the young wide receivers that he has, 169 00:07:52,988 --> 00:07:55,388 Speaker 1: and Tom Brady with going to a wedding on a 170 00:07:55,428 --> 00:07:56,868 Speaker 1: Friday night in New York City and the rest of 171 00:07:56,868 --> 00:07:58,708 Speaker 1: his team is wherever they are and he's flying into 172 00:07:58,748 --> 00:08:01,228 Speaker 1: join them. Like there is a disconnect here happening with 173 00:08:01,268 --> 00:08:04,428 Speaker 1: both of these teams, and the only right way to it, 174 00:08:04,548 --> 00:08:06,788 Speaker 1: beyond something like this is to just win a game. 175 00:08:06,868 --> 00:08:11,108 Speaker 1: It doesn't ugly ugly however, you get there, win a game, 176 00:08:11,228 --> 00:08:14,108 Speaker 1: people start talking about you differently, ask me different questions. 177 00:08:14,108 --> 00:08:16,468 Speaker 1: The tone in the room is different. But that's it, 178 00:08:16,548 --> 00:08:18,588 Speaker 1: And that's how good these guys are too. Though, is 179 00:08:18,628 --> 00:08:19,948 Speaker 1: that he win one game and all of a sudden, 180 00:08:19,988 --> 00:08:23,388 Speaker 1: the script is flipped, but they don't look like themselves. Hey, 181 00:08:23,468 --> 00:08:25,548 Speaker 1: could it be a better week for both of them? 182 00:08:25,628 --> 00:08:29,068 Speaker 1: The Green Bay plays Washington without their starting quarterback, and 183 00:08:29,188 --> 00:08:33,548 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers played Carolina without their starting quarterback or whatever 184 00:08:33,788 --> 00:08:35,908 Speaker 1: is that under center for them, without their head coach, 185 00:08:35,988 --> 00:08:39,788 Speaker 1: Matt Rule. I'm with you. And because the NFC is 186 00:08:39,788 --> 00:08:41,868 Speaker 1: so wide open and Eagles fans, we hear you're doing great. 187 00:08:41,868 --> 00:08:43,908 Speaker 1: It's okay, it's just haven't been there like like this 188 00:08:44,108 --> 00:08:46,668 Speaker 1: recently like these guys have. I think there's still this 189 00:08:46,748 --> 00:08:48,388 Speaker 1: glimmer of hope from both teams, like if we just 190 00:08:48,508 --> 00:08:51,908 Speaker 1: keep the ship on, you know, the ocean, we'll get 191 00:08:51,948 --> 00:08:54,748 Speaker 1: to land. We'll be all right. But November is approaching 192 00:08:54,748 --> 00:08:57,708 Speaker 1: soon well, and just in the division, I think NFC 193 00:08:57,788 --> 00:08:59,508 Speaker 1: North looks a lot more challenging for the Packers to 194 00:08:59,548 --> 00:09:01,948 Speaker 1: overcome than the division that the Buccaneers are in. So 195 00:09:02,068 --> 00:09:03,708 Speaker 1: if that's just simply how you want to put it, 196 00:09:03,748 --> 00:09:06,068 Speaker 1: then I guess to go with the Buccaneers train things around. 197 00:09:06,108 --> 00:09:12,348 Speaker 1: But we will see. And he's the front office guru 198 00:09:12,468 --> 00:09:19,108 Speaker 1: on our network, Las gentleman, let's welcome back, Scott st Guru. Wow, 199 00:09:21,348 --> 00:09:26,948 Speaker 1: I think Jeff's got a huge win in Week six 200 00:09:27,108 --> 00:09:30,748 Speaker 1: beating the Packers in Lambeau. We've talked about Robert Sala 201 00:09:31,108 --> 00:09:33,188 Speaker 1: a whole bunch on this show, but I want to 202 00:09:33,188 --> 00:09:35,348 Speaker 1: get your perspective. Who do you think deserves some praise 203 00:09:35,428 --> 00:09:39,548 Speaker 1: for this team's success this season? Peter, Obviously, on the 204 00:09:39,548 --> 00:09:42,108 Speaker 1: coaching staff, you have to give Michaelafloor some credit. You 205 00:09:42,108 --> 00:09:44,868 Speaker 1: have to give Jeff all Brooks some credit, the defensive coordinator, 206 00:09:44,908 --> 00:09:47,428 Speaker 1: And I worked with both those guys in Atlanta. Terrific coaches. 207 00:09:47,468 --> 00:09:50,148 Speaker 1: They know talent and they know how to develop. But 208 00:09:50,308 --> 00:09:53,428 Speaker 1: most importantly, I think the guy who's probably the largest 209 00:09:53,508 --> 00:09:56,628 Speaker 1: hitting figure in New York and New Jersey is the 210 00:09:56,668 --> 00:10:00,348 Speaker 1: general manager, Joe Douglas, who's done a fantastic job. You know, 211 00:10:00,468 --> 00:10:03,268 Speaker 1: Joe was mentored by Ozzie Newsome, and he understands the 212 00:10:03,308 --> 00:10:07,668 Speaker 1: importance of draft picks and developing draft picks, about taking 213 00:10:07,708 --> 00:10:10,188 Speaker 1: time making sure that he has a good coaching staff. 214 00:10:10,468 --> 00:10:13,228 Speaker 1: It's going to develop players that they bring in that 215 00:10:13,308 --> 00:10:16,548 Speaker 1: are identified as having the skills and tools that they need. 216 00:10:16,748 --> 00:10:18,908 Speaker 1: You know, one of Ozzy K. Newsom's sayings was, you 217 00:10:19,028 --> 00:10:21,228 Speaker 1: better know what you're looking for, and you better know 218 00:10:21,308 --> 00:10:23,908 Speaker 1: what you're looking at. Joe Douglas knows both those things. 219 00:10:23,908 --> 00:10:26,908 Speaker 1: He has football background. He played football, so he knows 220 00:10:26,908 --> 00:10:29,828 Speaker 1: when he's looking at players he can envision them in 221 00:10:29,908 --> 00:10:33,628 Speaker 1: certain roles and doing certain things. So Joe truly believes 222 00:10:33,668 --> 00:10:37,108 Speaker 1: in drafting well and developing players. It's worked out. You 223 00:10:37,148 --> 00:10:39,988 Speaker 1: look back to his first draft in twenty twenty and 224 00:10:40,108 --> 00:10:43,468 Speaker 1: he had eight picks and a player who is contract 225 00:10:43,588 --> 00:10:47,028 Speaker 1: was about to expire in Leonard Williams. He makes that trade, 226 00:10:47,108 --> 00:10:51,028 Speaker 1: finishes that draft with thirteen draft picks. They're still developing 227 00:10:51,068 --> 00:10:53,588 Speaker 1: those plays. He makes the Jamal Adams trade, gets a 228 00:10:53,708 --> 00:10:56,788 Speaker 1: bounty of picks. He knows how to use picks. He 229 00:10:56,868 --> 00:10:59,748 Speaker 1: also knows that the more picks that he has, the 230 00:10:59,828 --> 00:11:02,708 Speaker 1: more opportunity he's going to have to get talent because 231 00:11:02,748 --> 00:11:05,548 Speaker 1: sometimes we're all wrong in the draft. And he's at 232 00:11:05,548 --> 00:11:10,268 Speaker 1: peace with that. You know. Scott I personally was really 233 00:11:10,308 --> 00:11:13,188 Speaker 1: excited for the Carolina Panthers this year, called me crazy, 234 00:11:13,268 --> 00:11:16,308 Speaker 1: but the Matt Rule thing and Baker and McCaffrey was back, 235 00:11:16,308 --> 00:11:19,068 Speaker 1: and it's just been a massive disappointment. There's all this 236 00:11:19,228 --> 00:11:20,988 Speaker 1: news coming out of them. Recently, they let go of 237 00:11:21,028 --> 00:11:24,468 Speaker 1: head coach Matt Rule. It traded Robbie Anderson after a weird, 238 00:11:24,548 --> 00:11:26,988 Speaker 1: bizarre incident on the sideline, and now they said they'll 239 00:11:27,028 --> 00:11:30,388 Speaker 1: be listening to offers for their franchise player, Christian McCaffrey. 240 00:11:31,028 --> 00:11:33,388 Speaker 1: How does the front office keep the team motivated? We're 241 00:11:33,428 --> 00:11:35,268 Speaker 1: still pretty young in this season. How do you keep 242 00:11:35,268 --> 00:11:39,268 Speaker 1: the train on the tracks? How do you handle this? Well, Kyle, 243 00:11:39,308 --> 00:11:41,348 Speaker 1: I think the thing is you don't have to tell 244 00:11:41,388 --> 00:11:44,628 Speaker 1: the players, or the coaches or anybody including your scouts, 245 00:11:44,668 --> 00:11:47,028 Speaker 1: that they need to be motivated. What they need to 246 00:11:47,068 --> 00:11:49,828 Speaker 1: do is be focused, because what they need to know 247 00:11:50,068 --> 00:11:52,468 Speaker 1: is everybody that's a part of that team, in every 248 00:11:52,508 --> 00:11:55,708 Speaker 1: single role, needs to know that they're being evaluated. They're 249 00:11:55,748 --> 00:11:58,508 Speaker 1: being evaluated every Sunday in games, whether you're coaching, whether 250 00:11:58,548 --> 00:12:02,068 Speaker 1: you're playing. So the motivation should be there because they're 251 00:12:02,108 --> 00:12:05,868 Speaker 1: playing for contracts, they're playing for jobs, stability. And again, 252 00:12:05,948 --> 00:12:08,468 Speaker 1: it's not just the players, it's the coaches, it's the 253 00:12:08,508 --> 00:12:13,108 Speaker 1: front office, it's the scouts. Everybody should be motivated naturally. 254 00:12:13,388 --> 00:12:15,628 Speaker 1: It shouldn't be this kind of situation where you have 255 00:12:15,628 --> 00:12:17,108 Speaker 1: to say, hey, listen, guys, and we have to play 256 00:12:17,108 --> 00:12:19,668 Speaker 1: a little bit harder because you know the coaching staff 257 00:12:19,708 --> 00:12:22,548 Speaker 1: has changed, has been a lot of distractions. So Kyle, 258 00:12:22,628 --> 00:12:25,948 Speaker 1: this is one of those situations where it's uncomfortable for everyone. 259 00:12:26,268 --> 00:12:28,508 Speaker 1: It seems like that there's a lack of direction at 260 00:12:28,548 --> 00:12:31,308 Speaker 1: times because everyone knows it. It's more than likely an 261 00:12:31,308 --> 00:12:34,308 Speaker 1: interim situation. But the bottom line is this, Kyle, you 262 00:12:34,428 --> 00:12:37,228 Speaker 1: just have to do your job and that's how football goes. 263 00:12:39,028 --> 00:12:42,508 Speaker 1: Do your job. How poignant of a phrase that is. 264 00:12:42,548 --> 00:12:45,988 Speaker 1: As we're talking about Scott Pioli here and right on, 265 00:12:46,068 --> 00:12:48,508 Speaker 1: que let's talk about Bill Belichick and these Patriots, because 266 00:12:48,508 --> 00:12:53,548 Speaker 1: on Sunday he defeated the Cleveland Browns, who his first 267 00:12:53,628 --> 00:12:56,068 Speaker 1: head coaching job was with thirty eight to fifteen, and 268 00:12:56,108 --> 00:12:59,028 Speaker 1: he tied George Hollis for the second most wins in 269 00:12:59,228 --> 00:13:02,228 Speaker 1: NFL history. After the game, Bill Belichick was asked about it, 270 00:13:02,228 --> 00:13:05,468 Speaker 1: and they said, loo, Look, you know you're enough to win. 271 00:13:05,548 --> 00:13:07,388 Speaker 1: I've been fortunate enough to coach great players, and you 272 00:13:07,468 --> 00:13:11,108 Speaker 1: only win games by having good players. But I'm just curious. 273 00:13:11,268 --> 00:13:14,388 Speaker 1: You've known him for decades, he's going to give us 274 00:13:14,428 --> 00:13:18,428 Speaker 1: that blanketed response. But what do you think setting that 275 00:13:18,508 --> 00:13:21,468 Speaker 1: record means to him? I think it means a ton 276 00:13:21,548 --> 00:13:23,628 Speaker 1: Seun you know you mentioned I've known him for decades. 277 00:13:23,668 --> 00:13:25,588 Speaker 1: I met Bill back when I was in college, and 278 00:13:25,628 --> 00:13:29,348 Speaker 1: some of our earliest conversations were about the history of 279 00:13:29,388 --> 00:13:33,268 Speaker 1: the game, the people, the franchises, the people who are 280 00:13:33,308 --> 00:13:35,868 Speaker 1: the shoulders of the giants that we stood upon and 281 00:13:35,948 --> 00:13:39,308 Speaker 1: stand upon today. Bill loves the history. And to me, 282 00:13:39,508 --> 00:13:41,788 Speaker 1: quite honestly, when I've watched a couple of interviews that 283 00:13:41,828 --> 00:13:43,988 Speaker 1: he's done postgame, and then I watched some other stuff 284 00:13:44,028 --> 00:13:46,508 Speaker 1: that he's done in the last twenty four hours forty 285 00:13:46,548 --> 00:13:49,228 Speaker 1: eight hours, and quite honestly, I saw a motion out 286 00:13:49,268 --> 00:13:51,788 Speaker 1: to Bill. Bill just shows it differently than what some 287 00:13:51,868 --> 00:13:54,668 Speaker 1: people want to see him show. When Bill starts talking 288 00:13:54,708 --> 00:13:58,308 Speaker 1: about football history, when he started talking about his father's 289 00:13:58,348 --> 00:14:01,548 Speaker 1: relationship with George Hallis and how Bill got a chance 290 00:14:01,588 --> 00:14:03,908 Speaker 1: to go into the Bear's locker room and spend time 291 00:14:03,948 --> 00:14:06,348 Speaker 1: around them, that was him showing a part of his 292 00:14:06,428 --> 00:14:08,428 Speaker 1: soul and some of the things that are most important 293 00:14:08,428 --> 00:14:11,308 Speaker 1: to him. So when I saw him do those, to me, 294 00:14:11,508 --> 00:14:14,988 Speaker 1: I loved it because that is Bill showing emotion. He is, 295 00:14:15,348 --> 00:14:17,748 Speaker 1: you know, Bill is all about the team, but he 296 00:14:17,828 --> 00:14:20,388 Speaker 1: respects history so much. I think he's a little bit 297 00:14:20,428 --> 00:14:23,548 Speaker 1: taken back also that his name is being mentioned along 298 00:14:23,548 --> 00:14:26,468 Speaker 1: with those people. So to me, I'm so happy for 299 00:14:26,548 --> 00:14:28,468 Speaker 1: Bill as I was with him in Cleveland when he 300 00:14:28,468 --> 00:14:30,068 Speaker 1: was a head coach, I was with him in New 301 00:14:30,108 --> 00:14:32,988 Speaker 1: England obviously, and to see all that he's gone through 302 00:14:33,108 --> 00:14:36,108 Speaker 1: and to see all of that time, I mean, it's 303 00:14:36,148 --> 00:14:41,548 Speaker 1: really a pretty remarkable accomplishment. Rare Air Indeed, Scott, now 304 00:14:41,588 --> 00:14:44,228 Speaker 1: it's time for our cleans start, presented by Tide. He 305 00:14:44,308 --> 00:14:47,548 Speaker 1: are focusing on DeAndre Hopkins returning to the Arizona Cardinals 306 00:14:47,548 --> 00:14:51,148 Speaker 1: this week after serving a six game suspension. How does 307 00:14:51,148 --> 00:14:54,148 Speaker 1: this work, Scott? You get a star player back in 308 00:14:54,188 --> 00:14:57,428 Speaker 1: a starting lineup. What are the operations that the Cardinals 309 00:14:57,428 --> 00:15:00,108 Speaker 1: have to go through to make sure that DeAndre Hopkins, 310 00:15:00,148 --> 00:15:03,188 Speaker 1: who they're going to need offensively, gets blended in as 311 00:15:03,228 --> 00:15:07,748 Speaker 1: quickly as possible, Jamie, The interesting thing is he's been 312 00:15:07,788 --> 00:15:10,428 Speaker 1: able to be there the last three weeks. He isn't 313 00:15:10,468 --> 00:15:13,068 Speaker 1: able to participate in practice with the team. He's not 314 00:15:13,268 --> 00:15:15,628 Speaker 1: able to do anything that's a walk through a group 315 00:15:15,748 --> 00:15:18,908 Speaker 1: setting on the field. But years ago, the NFL did 316 00:15:18,908 --> 00:15:21,508 Speaker 1: a great job in terms of suspensions that were either 317 00:15:21,588 --> 00:15:25,828 Speaker 1: PEG related or recreational drug related. They allowed players to 318 00:15:25,868 --> 00:15:28,908 Speaker 1: start coming in at the half point of the time 319 00:15:28,948 --> 00:15:31,668 Speaker 1: of the suspension. My firm belief is that they should 320 00:15:31,668 --> 00:15:35,268 Speaker 1: allow players in the whole time. The suspension should be about, 321 00:15:35,308 --> 00:15:38,588 Speaker 1: in my opinion, about finances and not getting on the field, 322 00:15:38,788 --> 00:15:41,148 Speaker 1: because when someone makes a mistake and someone slips up, 323 00:15:41,188 --> 00:15:43,508 Speaker 1: the most important thing they need to do is have 324 00:15:43,588 --> 00:15:46,788 Speaker 1: their community around them. So in this case, DeAndre Hopkins 325 00:15:46,828 --> 00:15:49,228 Speaker 1: has been there for the last three weeks. The toughest 326 00:15:49,268 --> 00:15:52,708 Speaker 1: part is physically. He has missed fourteen of the last 327 00:15:52,708 --> 00:15:55,748 Speaker 1: sixteen games due to injuries last year and the suspension. 328 00:15:56,068 --> 00:15:58,228 Speaker 1: So they have a plan in place. They know that 329 00:15:58,268 --> 00:16:00,788 Speaker 1: he's going to be there. His mind is dialed in now. 330 00:16:00,788 --> 00:16:02,788 Speaker 1: It's just going to be a matter of timing. But 331 00:16:02,988 --> 00:16:05,108 Speaker 1: I'm expecting him to be up and running in a 332 00:16:05,108 --> 00:16:09,028 Speaker 1: lot of ways right away. Don't take any credit away 333 00:16:09,028 --> 00:16:10,828 Speaker 1: from what you helped build with Bill as well. A 334 00:16:10,868 --> 00:16:12,628 Speaker 1: lot of those we with Hortelis was a lot of 335 00:16:12,628 --> 00:16:14,308 Speaker 1: the stuff that you guys work together, and we want 336 00:16:14,308 --> 00:16:15,628 Speaker 1: to give you your credit where your credits to do 337 00:16:15,708 --> 00:16:20,188 Speaker 1: as well. Thanks guys, I appreciate everybody. Have a great 338 00:16:20,188 --> 00:16:30,068 Speaker 1: rest of your week. Welcome back to Good Morning Football 339 00:16:30,068 --> 00:16:32,148 Speaker 1: in the portion of the program where we get to 340 00:16:32,188 --> 00:16:34,708 Speaker 1: hold glasses that you thank our champagne, but God forbid 341 00:16:34,748 --> 00:16:37,308 Speaker 1: you drank out of them. This is Gingerrell. Indeed, it 342 00:16:37,548 --> 00:16:40,948 Speaker 1: is toast of the town. My friends and I here 343 00:16:41,068 --> 00:16:43,908 Speaker 1: who we've all pulled from week six, and we have 344 00:16:43,988 --> 00:16:46,268 Speaker 1: found three people that we want to highlight. So here 345 00:16:46,268 --> 00:16:50,868 Speaker 1: we're going, let's do it. Absolutely. My first goes out 346 00:16:50,908 --> 00:16:55,388 Speaker 1: to some Wisconsinites who know well enough this person. Nowhere 347 00:16:55,428 --> 00:16:58,348 Speaker 1: else in this fine country is it perfectly acceptable to 348 00:16:58,348 --> 00:17:01,068 Speaker 1: wear a foe dairy wedge on your head with pride. 349 00:17:01,348 --> 00:17:04,108 Speaker 1: And we have one Ralph Bruno to thank for that. 350 00:17:04,468 --> 00:17:07,068 Speaker 1: Ralph invented the very first Pham cheese head back in 351 00:17:07,188 --> 00:17:09,988 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty seven, and without him we would have never 352 00:17:10,068 --> 00:17:13,668 Speaker 1: gotten our favorite fondue moment from Jet's rookie Ahmad sauce 353 00:17:13,828 --> 00:17:17,108 Speaker 1: Gardener on Sunday. Ralph Bruno once said that cheese head 354 00:17:17,148 --> 00:17:20,108 Speaker 1: wearers are a diverse group bound together by one thing, 355 00:17:20,588 --> 00:17:23,468 Speaker 1: their love for cheese. I, for one, am that person 356 00:17:23,628 --> 00:17:26,788 Speaker 1: and despite being in Detroit, Michigan native who went to 357 00:17:26,828 --> 00:17:29,668 Speaker 1: the University of Cincinnati, sauce Gardener Whold's respect for the 358 00:17:29,708 --> 00:17:31,948 Speaker 1: whole of the Midwest when he decided to take on 359 00:17:31,988 --> 00:17:35,628 Speaker 1: the fromage Fedora her sauce sporting the golden crown has 360 00:17:35,668 --> 00:17:40,188 Speaker 1: now become a core memory. Ever gonna forget this moment? 361 00:17:40,188 --> 00:17:42,588 Speaker 1: What was? What was the thing? I've just been able 362 00:17:42,628 --> 00:17:45,428 Speaker 1: to play against body like Aaron Rodgers. I know that 363 00:17:45,468 --> 00:17:47,708 Speaker 1: was a true blessing. If I say I grew up 364 00:17:47,708 --> 00:17:50,508 Speaker 1: playing Madden and he always been on mad And since 365 00:17:50,548 --> 00:17:55,508 Speaker 1: I can remember running off the field that cheesehead then 366 00:17:55,988 --> 00:17:59,908 Speaker 1: cheese on my head, you know that was a crazy killer, 367 00:17:59,948 --> 00:18:05,188 Speaker 1: Ain't there? I'm going Now, this whole situation wasn't just 368 00:18:05,268 --> 00:18:07,748 Speaker 1: baked brie and sour do' crackers. Alan Lazard did not 369 00:18:07,748 --> 00:18:10,228 Speaker 1: seem to take too kindly to the cheeseheaded sauce swiftly 370 00:18:10,308 --> 00:18:12,788 Speaker 1: knocking the cap off of the rookies noggin, but we 371 00:18:12,828 --> 00:18:16,508 Speaker 1: all maintain Sauce's intention seemed enthusiastic in nature, not mocking. 372 00:18:16,988 --> 00:18:19,788 Speaker 1: Reasonable response, though by Lazard is the appreciation for the 373 00:18:19,868 --> 00:18:22,628 Speaker 1: cheesehead must come with an understanding of its history. In 374 00:18:22,708 --> 00:18:25,788 Speaker 1: nineteen eighty seven, a young Ralph Bruno decided to dig 375 00:18:26,028 --> 00:18:29,108 Speaker 1: into his mother's sofa and use the foam to create 376 00:18:29,468 --> 00:18:32,708 Speaker 1: the very first cheese wedge hat. The public out wind 377 00:18:32,748 --> 00:18:35,188 Speaker 1: of this fan foam creation when Bruno wore the hat 378 00:18:35,268 --> 00:18:37,708 Speaker 1: himself to a Milwaukee Brewers game in the summer of 379 00:18:37,748 --> 00:18:40,508 Speaker 1: eighty seven, and the rest is history. Packers fans young 380 00:18:40,548 --> 00:18:43,108 Speaker 1: and old, from Green Bay to London, and yes, even 381 00:18:43,188 --> 00:18:45,308 Speaker 1: rookies playing for the Jets have all pint in on 382 00:18:45,348 --> 00:18:49,188 Speaker 1: the fun. Here's to the legend Ralph Bruno maintaining a 383 00:18:49,228 --> 00:18:51,708 Speaker 1: space for us all to fight veganism one cheese hat 384 00:18:52,068 --> 00:18:56,588 Speaker 1: at a time, and his mother with house right exactly 385 00:18:58,028 --> 00:19:00,228 Speaker 1: eighty seven Brewers. My next host goes out to Mother 386 00:19:00,308 --> 00:19:03,148 Speaker 1: Nature for providing a fashion assist to the quarterback. North 387 00:19:03,188 --> 00:19:06,428 Speaker 1: of the Wall. Fans who tuned into the Vikings Dolphins 388 00:19:06,508 --> 00:19:08,748 Speaker 1: game on Sunday may have caught the broadcast cut to 389 00:19:08,788 --> 00:19:11,388 Speaker 1: a very relatable and classic side by side shot of 390 00:19:11,468 --> 00:19:14,628 Speaker 1: sideline thermostats, and just when look at the readings would 391 00:19:14,668 --> 00:19:18,548 Speaker 1: make anyone sweat, the Dolphins bench came into cool ninety degrees, 392 00:19:18,548 --> 00:19:20,948 Speaker 1: whereas the Viking sideline read just north of one hundred 393 00:19:20,988 --> 00:19:24,348 Speaker 1: and twenty degrees, a thirty degree difference. Baking a team 394 00:19:24,828 --> 00:19:27,388 Speaker 1: for four hours at one hundred and twenty degrees. That's 395 00:19:27,428 --> 00:19:30,228 Speaker 1: normally used to scraping ice off their windshields from today 396 00:19:30,308 --> 00:19:34,228 Speaker 1: until April. It seems illegal yet beautifully intentional. At the 397 00:19:34,228 --> 00:19:36,868 Speaker 1: same time, the Dolphins did not know the monster they 398 00:19:36,868 --> 00:19:39,708 Speaker 1: were creating. Though. While the Florida heat doesn't bother a 399 00:19:39,748 --> 00:19:43,148 Speaker 1: bulk of the population from snowbirds to beachgoers, it does 400 00:19:43,228 --> 00:19:46,348 Speaker 1: pose a concern for opposing teams, especially when the opposing 401 00:19:46,388 --> 00:19:51,628 Speaker 1: quarterback is this guy. Remember where the Broncos walk through 402 00:19:51,668 --> 00:19:54,388 Speaker 1: the sanitizing spray onto the practice field. That is what 403 00:19:54,428 --> 00:19:56,028 Speaker 1: they had to do with Kirk Cousins when he was 404 00:19:56,068 --> 00:19:59,188 Speaker 1: on his way onto the field in Miami, roasting in 405 00:19:59,228 --> 00:20:02,268 Speaker 1: the sun. Beyond the obvious five and one start to 406 00:20:02,308 --> 00:20:04,348 Speaker 1: the season, We've been wondering why Kirk was so quick 407 00:20:04,468 --> 00:20:07,348 Speaker 1: to throw that chain on after the win in Florida. 408 00:20:07,668 --> 00:20:10,188 Speaker 1: Rumor has a team doctors relaid this message to him. 409 00:20:10,188 --> 00:20:14,148 Speaker 1: To offset overheat, dehydration and sunburn, one must be dripping 410 00:20:14,148 --> 00:20:19,548 Speaker 1: with ice immediately after sunnetsposure. Y have it here is 411 00:20:19,588 --> 00:20:22,588 Speaker 1: to patcha mama for brazing the vikings long enough to 412 00:20:22,628 --> 00:20:25,108 Speaker 1: produce a fourth straight win and a chili Kirk Cousins 413 00:20:25,108 --> 00:20:30,388 Speaker 1: for the flight back. Lastly, this toast goes out to 414 00:20:30,388 --> 00:20:34,188 Speaker 1: the creative broadcast operators willing to rock the boat when 415 00:20:34,268 --> 00:20:36,868 Speaker 1: half of the country is watching your game. With less 416 00:20:36,908 --> 00:20:38,508 Speaker 1: than ten minutes to go. In the first half of 417 00:20:38,548 --> 00:20:41,668 Speaker 1: the Ravens Giants game, as seen on CBS, Gary Brightwell 418 00:20:41,708 --> 00:20:44,708 Speaker 1: retrieves a kickoff into the end zone. All right, for 419 00:20:44,828 --> 00:20:46,628 Speaker 1: as of all of you who don't know, this is 420 00:20:46,668 --> 00:20:50,988 Speaker 1: the skycam angle. Okay, skycam operators operate this camera on 421 00:20:51,108 --> 00:20:53,988 Speaker 1: four wires that are tethered to the stadium. Gary Bitwell 422 00:20:54,028 --> 00:20:56,428 Speaker 1: receives this kick. I called I an eagle to understand 423 00:20:56,428 --> 00:20:59,508 Speaker 1: what happens here because the next thing you're about to 424 00:20:59,508 --> 00:21:03,948 Speaker 1: see is out of a Christopher Nolan movie. Okay, Gary Bitewell, 425 00:21:03,988 --> 00:21:06,468 Speaker 1: we'll see this cake now. The director Susanne Smith has 426 00:21:06,508 --> 00:21:08,668 Speaker 1: already committed to this camera angle. What do we start 427 00:21:08,668 --> 00:21:11,908 Speaker 1: doing here? We start sitting it on the boat. Here 428 00:21:11,908 --> 00:21:15,068 Speaker 1: we go and we're oh, and we're coming back and 429 00:21:15,228 --> 00:21:17,748 Speaker 1: bring it back to the other side because you think 430 00:21:17,748 --> 00:21:19,828 Speaker 1: you would, oh, and here we go do back out again? 431 00:21:19,908 --> 00:21:22,788 Speaker 1: What is happening at this camera angle? I needed a 432 00:21:22,868 --> 00:21:25,868 Speaker 1: zo fran I needed one of those bands that presses 433 00:21:25,868 --> 00:21:27,908 Speaker 1: on a part of my wrist that keeps me from 434 00:21:27,948 --> 00:21:30,468 Speaker 1: being sick very bright Well. And the thing about this 435 00:21:30,548 --> 00:21:32,508 Speaker 1: camera angle, guys, is that if he had if he 436 00:21:32,548 --> 00:21:34,948 Speaker 1: had broken this last block, we would have had to 437 00:21:34,988 --> 00:21:37,188 Speaker 1: stay with it all the way untelling. I mean, where 438 00:21:37,308 --> 00:21:39,628 Speaker 1: is this thing going? I have no idea. I an 439 00:21:39,668 --> 00:21:41,748 Speaker 1: eagle told me that he called this off of what 440 00:21:41,828 --> 00:21:43,388 Speaker 1: he was looking out on the field. He had no 441 00:21:43,468 --> 00:21:45,948 Speaker 1: idea that that was the camera angle. He started getting 442 00:21:45,948 --> 00:21:48,468 Speaker 1: texts from people that said, what did I just see 443 00:21:48,508 --> 00:21:51,828 Speaker 1: on that Giant's broadcast? It was creative, it was fun, 444 00:21:52,108 --> 00:21:54,788 Speaker 1: it was risk ay, and it went to it way 445 00:21:54,868 --> 00:21:56,788 Speaker 1: to fifty eight percent of the country, and you know what, 446 00:21:56,868 --> 00:21:59,028 Speaker 1: I kind of dug it. Let's get back to that scene. Yes, 447 00:22:00,268 --> 00:22:02,188 Speaker 1: I know, I didn't need some ginger ale. So that 448 00:22:02,268 --> 00:22:05,748 Speaker 1: was it. My toasts of the town go to Mother Earth, 449 00:22:06,268 --> 00:22:09,428 Speaker 1: Ralph Bruno and the guy that was operating that camera 450 00:22:09,428 --> 00:22:12,908 Speaker 1: in the Giants game here here unbelievably awesome. I want 451 00:22:12,908 --> 00:22:17,388 Speaker 1: to shout out Tenant an inception and the Christopher Nolan 452 00:22:17,468 --> 00:22:20,348 Speaker 1: movies you referred to. It was like it was Denzel's 453 00:22:20,428 --> 00:22:24,108 Speaker 1: kid and Robert Pattinson returning that kick with Brightwell passed 454 00:22:24,148 --> 00:22:26,908 Speaker 1: the drama. Mean, I absolutely love it. Yeah, I want 455 00:22:26,908 --> 00:22:30,188 Speaker 1: to shout out to Frank Bruno nineteen eighty seven. Yes, 456 00:22:30,388 --> 00:22:33,268 Speaker 1: venting the cheese head. Here we are in twenty twenty two, 457 00:22:33,348 --> 00:22:37,148 Speaker 1: a certain anniversary of that eight and Sauce Gardner makes 458 00:22:37,148 --> 00:22:40,348 Speaker 1: it popular. Once. Glad to know a guy named Ralph 459 00:22:40,388 --> 00:22:43,468 Speaker 1: is known for something else. I toasted the talent to 460 00:22:43,548 --> 00:22:46,228 Speaker 1: the camera crew right there for rocking the boat alias 461 00:22:46,268 --> 00:22:50,908 Speaker 1: shout out to her.

Time to check 463 00:22:58,268 --> 00:23:01,428 Speaker 1: out the power rankings by Van Hansas ahead of weeks seven. 464 00:23:01,468 --> 00:23:04,108 Speaker 1: Peter tell Us, who won Angry Runs to Day from Indianapolis, 465 00:23:04,108 --> 00:23:07,308 Speaker 1: called on from the colt. Who is the running back 466 00:23:07,388 --> 00:23:09,348 Speaker 1: at a duke? I want to say Jan Jackson, I know, 467 00:23:09,388 --> 00:23:10,948 Speaker 1: I want to say he was an undrafted book at 468 00:23:10,988 --> 00:23:12,948 Speaker 1: a duke. Yes, duke. So we're gonna go with the 469 00:23:13,068 --> 00:23:17,108 Speaker 1: theme of duke basketball. All right, let's go Duke football 470 00:23:17,108 --> 00:23:18,748 Speaker 1: player wants to hear is to go to a basketball 471 00:23:18,828 --> 00:23:22,468 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, we love coming up in the power rankings 472 00:23:22,468 --> 00:23:27,508 Speaker 1: in the Allah Abdulnabi Division five through thirty two bottom 473 00:23:27,588 --> 00:23:29,388 Speaker 1: right corner Panthers thirty two. That was kind of a 474 00:23:29,428 --> 00:23:33,268 Speaker 1: no brainer. The Texans Commanders coming off a win at 475 00:23:33,388 --> 00:23:35,508 Speaker 1: thirty right over the team that beat them on the 476 00:23:35,588 --> 00:23:37,108 Speaker 1: right side of the screen or lost in them rather 477 00:23:37,148 --> 00:23:39,308 Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears. But let's move on though. Let's go 478 00:23:39,348 --> 00:23:41,948 Speaker 1: to the Cherokee Parks Division twelfth overall picks in the 479 00:23:41,988 --> 00:23:45,468 Speaker 1: Dallas Mavericks, forty four and eight different teams upper left, 480 00:23:45,468 --> 00:23:48,228 Speaker 1: heide corner of the Pats, three and three, Falcons three 481 00:23:48,228 --> 00:23:52,588 Speaker 1: and three, Saints, Louis Seahawks win, Colts win, angry runs, 482 00:23:52,588 --> 00:23:54,668 Speaker 1: and really win this segment. But let's move on one 483 00:23:54,668 --> 00:23:57,748 Speaker 1: of my personal favorite duke players, Danny Ferry back in 484 00:23:57,788 --> 00:23:59,668 Speaker 1: the day, and the left side of the screen we 485 00:23:59,668 --> 00:24:03,228 Speaker 1: have the Bucks and the Bucks at nine interesting and 486 00:24:03,268 --> 00:24:05,548 Speaker 1: the Chargers with the win last night that will be 487 00:24:05,588 --> 00:24:08,188 Speaker 1: instantly forgotten in the scheme of things. They're a number ten. 488 00:24:08,548 --> 00:24:11,308 Speaker 1: Who is the greatest duke basket player of all time? 489 00:24:11,348 --> 00:24:13,668 Speaker 1: I know the chalk says Latener, But Kyle, who do 490 00:24:13,748 --> 00:24:15,988 Speaker 1: you go with? I mean, I think it's Latener or Hurly, 491 00:24:16,188 --> 00:24:18,468 Speaker 1: I really do. I think that era, But I'm gonna 492 00:24:18,468 --> 00:24:20,268 Speaker 1: go for the sake of this in our top bracket, 493 00:24:20,308 --> 00:24:22,108 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Christian Latter because Nike. He has 494 00:24:22,108 --> 00:24:24,988 Speaker 1: also the dukest basketball player of all time. You're always 495 00:24:24,988 --> 00:24:26,748 Speaker 1: on the Dream Team. Yaps five points a game on 496 00:24:26,748 --> 00:24:28,508 Speaker 1: the Dream Team. I looked it up. Wow. All right. 497 00:24:28,588 --> 00:24:31,108 Speaker 1: So Dan Hanzas has the Bills at number one, over 498 00:24:31,228 --> 00:24:34,708 Speaker 1: the undefeated Eagles, and then those Chiefs nearby Vikings just 499 00:24:34,828 --> 00:24:38,548 Speaker 1: cruising since that Eagles lost, and then the Bengals at 500 00:24:38,628 --> 00:24:41,228 Speaker 1: three and three I believe, rounding out the top five 501 00:24:41,268 --> 00:24:43,748 Speaker 1: in front of the Cowboys. There's a whole section of 502 00:24:43,868 --> 00:24:47,108 Speaker 1: Christian Laytner's wiki that just says widely reviled, a whole 503 00:24:47,148 --> 00:24:49,228 Speaker 1: section about how people like him. You don't see a 504 00:24:49,268 --> 00:24:51,228 Speaker 1: lot of that. Everybody liked this man. That's why we 505 00:24:51,268 --> 00:24:53,788 Speaker 1: bring him in. Dan Hanzas, good morning, how are you hey? 506 00:24:53,908 --> 00:24:56,028 Speaker 1: What's up? And in nineteen ninety two, my mom took 507 00:24:56,068 --> 00:24:58,828 Speaker 1: me to supercut to the picture of Christian Laytner from 508 00:24:58,828 --> 00:25:02,388 Speaker 1: sports illushaded to give him this. It's the most nineteen 509 00:25:02,508 --> 00:25:05,948 Speaker 1: ninety two Suburbs story ever. Hi dev for me, you 510 00:25:05,988 --> 00:25:08,188 Speaker 1: know what's so funny? Then I remember asking my mom, 511 00:25:08,228 --> 00:25:10,148 Speaker 1: I want to have Christian Latner's hair, and she's like, 512 00:25:10,228 --> 00:25:12,068 Speaker 1: I just don't think it falls that way. But we 513 00:25:12,188 --> 00:25:14,028 Speaker 1: all when he would run down the quartery would like 514 00:25:14,148 --> 00:25:16,308 Speaker 1: gleefully kind of float in the wind, and it just 515 00:25:16,428 --> 00:25:21,428 Speaker 1: looks so beautiful, unlikable expectations. Dan, we can't do more 516 00:25:21,428 --> 00:25:23,668 Speaker 1: haircrat talk. We're very quick today. I'm so sorry. I 517 00:25:23,708 --> 00:25:26,388 Speaker 1: would love to talk about Laaten's hair, but please give 518 00:25:26,428 --> 00:25:28,148 Speaker 1: us your perspective and Bills, Chiefs and tell us are 519 00:25:28,148 --> 00:25:29,308 Speaker 1: we in the miss and one of the best quarterback 520 00:25:29,388 --> 00:25:32,548 Speaker 1: raveries of all time? Yeah? We definitely, we definitely, No, 521 00:25:32,588 --> 00:25:36,268 Speaker 1: I just want to talk about the hair too. Um 522 00:25:36,628 --> 00:25:38,228 Speaker 1: it is. It's one of the best, and it's and 523 00:25:38,508 --> 00:25:40,468 Speaker 1: this is very hard, this job right now, because there's 524 00:25:40,508 --> 00:25:43,428 Speaker 1: three teams that are really good that we could trust 525 00:25:43,548 --> 00:25:46,148 Speaker 1: and then everything else is a mess. But when you 526 00:25:46,188 --> 00:25:48,948 Speaker 1: have Mahomes and Alan on the field together, you know 527 00:25:49,068 --> 00:25:51,748 Speaker 1: you're seeing football at its best in twenty twenty two. 528 00:25:52,028 --> 00:25:54,268 Speaker 1: I only hope we get that rematch. I think the 529 00:25:54,348 --> 00:25:56,588 Speaker 1: Bills are a better team. They showed it in a 530 00:25:56,668 --> 00:25:59,308 Speaker 1: big spot on Sunday. That's why they're number one. But 531 00:25:59,628 --> 00:26:01,428 Speaker 1: you know, the Chiefs and the Bills in the playoffs, 532 00:26:01,508 --> 00:26:02,988 Speaker 1: give it to us because I think it comes down 533 00:26:03,068 --> 00:26:07,228 Speaker 1: to the last possession again. Came on the show yesterday 534 00:26:07,268 --> 00:26:09,828 Speaker 1: after the Eagles Cowboys game. We gave the Eagles their flowers, 535 00:26:09,868 --> 00:26:12,428 Speaker 1: and I said, Cowboys, it's kind of like a moral victory, 536 00:26:12,468 --> 00:26:14,388 Speaker 1: though I thought they came back hard and Michael Parsons 537 00:26:14,468 --> 00:26:16,988 Speaker 1: was still the best player in the field. What do 538 00:26:17,068 --> 00:26:19,228 Speaker 1: you think Dak's coming back, and how do you rank 539 00:26:19,348 --> 00:26:22,508 Speaker 1: them knowing that, Okay, their star quarterbacks back and they 540 00:26:22,548 --> 00:26:25,548 Speaker 1: haven't played that bad even without them. Yeah, I'm totally 541 00:26:25,588 --> 00:26:28,628 Speaker 1: with you. The Eagles did their second quarter thing, scoring 542 00:26:28,668 --> 00:26:30,628 Speaker 1: twenty points, and that was the difference in that game. 543 00:26:30,708 --> 00:26:33,028 Speaker 1: But there's a reason in the power rankings the Cowboys 544 00:26:33,148 --> 00:26:36,308 Speaker 1: lost and moved up four spots to number six, because, 545 00:26:36,388 --> 00:26:38,228 Speaker 1: first of all, the top ten's a total mess and 546 00:26:38,308 --> 00:26:40,628 Speaker 1: it's hard to make sense of anything. And number two, 547 00:26:40,868 --> 00:26:43,628 Speaker 1: Dallas again has showed us that they have a great defense, 548 00:26:43,908 --> 00:26:46,588 Speaker 1: they have a coaching staff that is making the most 549 00:26:46,628 --> 00:26:49,388 Speaker 1: of what they have on offense getting back into that 550 00:26:49,508 --> 00:26:51,788 Speaker 1: game on Sunday night, and yes, and now Dak is 551 00:26:51,788 --> 00:26:54,868 Speaker 1: going to come back and stabilize the offense hypothetically lift 552 00:26:54,948 --> 00:26:57,508 Speaker 1: them to a higher level in a wide open NFC. 553 00:26:57,908 --> 00:27:00,548 Speaker 1: Why can't the Cowboys come in as the team right 554 00:27:00,588 --> 00:27:04,788 Speaker 1: behind the Eagles as the biggest threat. Dad, I don't 555 00:27:04,788 --> 00:27:07,188 Speaker 1: believe we're talking abou duke basketball. Nobody's mentioned Grant Hill 556 00:27:07,268 --> 00:27:10,148 Speaker 1: so exactly. I feel like it's like when used to 557 00:27:10,188 --> 00:27:13,188 Speaker 1: play Coach K basketball on Second Genesis and all of 558 00:27:13,228 --> 00:27:14,948 Speaker 1: a sudden, the cartridge wouldn't work. That's what's going on 559 00:27:14,988 --> 00:27:16,548 Speaker 1: in Green Bay right now. Right it feels like the 560 00:27:16,708 --> 00:27:20,108 Speaker 1: cartridge is not working. The screen's coming up like sideways, blurry, 561 00:27:20,108 --> 00:27:21,908 Speaker 1: everything's backwards. You gotta blow on it a couple of times, 562 00:27:21,948 --> 00:27:23,548 Speaker 1: put it back in. Is that how you feel about 563 00:27:23,548 --> 00:27:26,868 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers and the Packers right now? Yeah? I do. 564 00:27:27,588 --> 00:27:29,468 Speaker 1: I said it on the show last week. Watch Out 565 00:27:29,548 --> 00:27:31,948 Speaker 1: the Jets go in there. The Packers aren't ready, They're 566 00:27:31,988 --> 00:27:34,388 Speaker 1: gonna get beat up, and they did, and it's just 567 00:27:34,588 --> 00:27:37,348 Speaker 1: it is a it's a mess. It's on both sides 568 00:27:37,388 --> 00:27:40,908 Speaker 1: of the ball. And you see the frustration with Rogers 569 00:27:41,028 --> 00:27:43,788 Speaker 1: and the way he's unable to get this team moving. 570 00:27:44,028 --> 00:27:45,948 Speaker 1: And I just thought it was really interesting how that 571 00:27:46,028 --> 00:27:49,348 Speaker 1: offensive line could not keep Quinnon Williams or the rest 572 00:27:49,388 --> 00:27:51,588 Speaker 1: of the Jets front out of the backfield. The Jets 573 00:27:51,628 --> 00:27:54,348 Speaker 1: didn't need to blitz to give Aaron Rodgers a hard time, 574 00:27:54,668 --> 00:27:57,268 Speaker 1: and with unproven wide receivers and now Randall cobb out, 575 00:27:57,708 --> 00:27:59,748 Speaker 1: I don't know where the answers are. I assume they're 576 00:27:59,748 --> 00:28:01,948 Speaker 1: going to figure out and get on track. But watching 577 00:28:02,028 --> 00:28:03,948 Speaker 1: that game, you just saw a team that was at 578 00:28:03,988 --> 00:28:07,708 Speaker 1: a sink on both sides of the ball. Can't ever 579 00:28:07,788 --> 00:28:09,868 Speaker 1: say that about you, Dan, Always in Sync. Be sure 580 00:28:09,908 --> 00:28:12,148 Speaker 1: to check an NFL Power Records presented by Energizer every 581 00:28:12,188 --> 00:28:14,948 Speaker 1: Tuesday and NFL dot Com.
