35
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 1: So all that coming away throughout the overnet. But our

36
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: lead this hour. Don't bury the lead, my man. All right,

37
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: We're not gonna bury the lead. So our lead this

38
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: hour from Philadelphia are ongoing coverage as we have a

39
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: follow up to the follow up to the follow up.

40
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: As the birds sitting at the very top there their nest,

41
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: the bird nest the very top of the NFC either

42
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: tied with the Rams, but they won the tiebreaker because

43
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: the Rams special team sucked and had a kick block

44
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: that would have won the game. But not all is

45
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: right in the Delaware Valley. No, no, no, no, no.

46
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: We've been talking about the Eagle players who have been

47
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: whispering in hushed tones, whispering in hushed tones to medium

48
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: members in Philadelphia frustrated. Who are they frustrated with Jalen Hurts? OMG,

49
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 1: they're upset with Jalen Hurts and his approach this season now,

50
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: specifically when it comes to his hesitancy to throw the

51
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: ball into U. I don't know, tight windows, they say,

52
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: when you could be picked off right, it's not a

53
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: no risk situation for the quarterback and he's tried to

54
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: avoid that. Now, Hurts address this. I don't know if

55
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: you heard what he had to say or not. Maybe not.

56
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: I believe we have some audio here. So Eagles quarterback

57
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts said he was not startled by the many

58
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: reports that are bouncing around the echo chamber. People frustrated

59
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: inside the organization on with his play. The finger being

60
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: pointed at him, A number of fingers being pointed at

61
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts for what he's been doing here and well

62
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: he's used the a word accountability. Let's go to the

63
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: audio tape. Take a listen.

64
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 3: I guess I get a lot of attention when things

65
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 3: are going well and when things are not going so well,

66
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 3: and so I never run away from holding myself accountable.

67
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 3: And I think, you know, I think that's exactly what

68
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 3: I've taken the approach of doing.

69
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: Okay, so I never run away from holding myself accountable.

70
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: I think exactly what I've taken that approach of doing

71
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: and all that. All right, So that is a good

72
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 1: jumping off point. Let's get into this right now. The

73
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 1: question Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts as you just Hurt says

74
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 1: he never runs away from holding himself accountable. How do

75
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: you interpret the meaning of this? Is it straightforward? Is

76
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: there some nuance to it? So on this one, I've

77
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 1: got Ruth, Chris steakhouse, wooden palettes, and gymnastics, and we

78
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together and we are

79
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 1: going to have some delicious, delicious banana cream pie. The

80
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: king of the pie is the banana cream pie. So A,

81
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 1: there's really no need for us to sit here and

82
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,160
Speaker 1: just blab blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah,

83
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: and give you all kinds of fluff. We cut through

84
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 1: the fluff. We actually have a machete. We cut through

85
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: the fluff. It's a fluff cutting machete and we use

86
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 1: that every night. So Jalen Hurts did not actually accept accountability. Well,

87
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 1: we shuid it. What are you talking about? He shut it?

88
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 1: Oh shut up, Okay, here's what he did. He said,

89
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: I'll never run away from it. But really, yeah, it's

90
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 1: really I know I'm at fall, and the key part

91
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: is I'm not changing. I did not get the sense

92
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: from watching the Jalen Hurts news conference that he has

93
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 1: any intention of doing anything differently. And that's how the

94
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: Mallor Rosetta Stone ruled. When we listened to what he

95
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 1: had to say. This is the modern day quarterback news conference.

96
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,839
Speaker 1: What do you do with these things? Right? You do

97
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 1: some news conference? Jiu jitsu is what you do. You

98
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: say accountability, and if you say it, certain percentage of

99
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 1: people don't pay attention. Oh he said it, he said accountability.

100
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,839
Speaker 1: But you say that, but you do stubbornness. Okay, you

101
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:19,279
Speaker 1: do stubborness. Meanwhile, the Eagles offense, despite that great record,

102
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: they are circling the drain. They're twenty fifth overall on offense.

103
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 1: That's not good. Oh, you're being too critical. Twenty eight

104
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: been passing. I think that sucks. Oh why'd you say that?

105
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: That's why you're doing overnights twenty ninth in terms of

106
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: third down play, which is not great either. Last year

107
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: behind Sakwan Barkley, they were bulldozing people one hundred and

108
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: seventy nine yards rushing per game. I believe last season ridiculous.

109
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: This year it's like a buck fifteen or something like that.

110
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,679
Speaker 1: That's not a dip, that is a sixty four foot

111
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: plunge off the Ben Franklin Bridge. All right, and then

112
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: and the locker room knows it, and the Eagle, the

113
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: people around the Eagle are claiming that, hey, listen, they

114
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 1: got the game plan. Jalen Hurts is using the I

115
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: word ignorance in terms of the game plan there. He

116
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: will not throw into the tight windows against the zone,

117
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: and you know he plays he essentially the translation is

118
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: he doesn't want to risk anything at all, Like you know,

119
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: he's the guy that will buy stock and if it

120
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 1: goes down, he keeps it. He just it's a long

121
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: term strategy. Here, and this all started a couple of

122
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: years back in twenty twenty three through a bunch of interceptions.

123
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: He got buried for it. Jalen Hurts is that what

124
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: are you doing? You're turning the ball over too much.

125
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: And so he' say, okay, I'm going to get ripped

126
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: for that. So I'm going to now go into my

127
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 1: safe space. And he the last seven hundred and twenty

128
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: one pass attempts since that fateful twenty twenty three season,

129
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 1: he has seven interceptions. He's playing safe. He's being very

130
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: conservative with the football. The Eagles winning. Yes, they're being

131
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: very successful on the field. It's also uninspiring, right, they're spending.

132
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: Here's the issue. If Jalen Hurts was being paid a

133
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: pedestrian amount of money and they didn't go out and

134
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: fill out the roster, it would be fine. But they're

135
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: paying him as a franchise quarterback. He's a checkdown merchant,

136
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: is what he is, Charlie. Checkdown is what they're getting.

137
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: They're paying him for a franchise quarterback. They're not getting that.

138
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: It's kind of like going to Ruth Chris steakhouse and

139
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,679
Speaker 1: they have all those delicious steaks and all that and

140
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 1: you're like, you know what I want to order. The

141
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: I would like to order the lettuce wedge is what

142
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: I would like? Well, no, no, it's a steak. Well no,

143
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: it's on the menu though it says lettuce which I

144
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: know it's on the menu, but you should get a steak.

145
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: But I don't want a steak. I want the lettuce witch.

146
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:47,839
Speaker 1: When nobody orders the lettuce witch, we don't even know

147
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: why it's on the menu. You're the first person ever

148
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 1: to order that. It's fine, that's what I want, Okay whatever,

149
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 1: So technically reads a meal, but it's like kind of

150
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: a waste, right, It's like, you know you're not there

151
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: for that. And you got aj Browne prime years of

152
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,079
Speaker 1: his career. He's the only one that's been vocal and

153
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: spoken on the record put their name on it. Davonte

154
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: Smith is also another guy who might as well trade him.

155
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: You don't need him. If you're just gonna check down,

156
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 1: you're wasting the entire buffet of playmakers. And you've got

157
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: this big offensive line and all that. And so the

158
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: Eagles they're winning winning, You know what they remind me

159
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: of they used to be. I'm gonna talk hockey here, much.

160
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: The New Jersey Devils, believe it or not, years ago,

161
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: won a bunch of Stanley Cups. They had a really

162
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: good run and they were contenders every year, and they

163
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: were so boring. They were so boring boring winners is

164
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: what they were. And kind of like the San Antonio

165
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: Spurs when they won. They were boring in basketball. So

166
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:47,719
Speaker 1: you're doing that, you're winning, and you're paying a luxury

167
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:52,400
Speaker 1: rate for your roster, and you've just dumbed down everything.

168
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,319
Speaker 1: You've dumbed down everything. And so they've got a team

169
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 1: that plays football like they're trying not to wake up

170
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 1: a baby. There's a baby sleeping off to the site.

171
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: They don't want to wake up the baby. And Jalen Hurts,

172
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: he says he'll never run from accountability, which is fine.

173
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 4: Men.

174
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:10,719
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts has been a great SoundBite in terms of cliches.

175
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 1: And remember when he first came on the scene against

176
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and they played terribly the Eagles against Dallas

177
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: in Dallas, and yeah, he gave us that great quote

178
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: when you drop a deuce, you don't stop and stare

179
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: at it, You flush it and move on, which is

180
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 1: still one of my favorite Jalen Hurds quotes, but here's

181
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: the deal. Just to be clear, for those of you

182
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: that are late, like a Dallas Cowboy receiver, you're a

183
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: little late there in the back of the room. So

184
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts admits that he's the problem. He's not running

185
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: from it. He just won't solve it. So that's the

186
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: Philly paradox is what it is. And as long as

187
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,440
Speaker 1: they win, you can't say anything. Everything is good. Blah

188
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. All right. Meanwhile,

189
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: to Arizona we go, where another coach on the hot seat,

190
00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: Jonathan Gannon. Jonathan Gann, the Cardinals head coach, was questioned

191
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: about his job status. The Cardinals off to the typical

192
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 1: three and seven start, and they now have they benched

193
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 1: their starting corp back. They made some fake injury up

194
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: for him, a little fella the garden home their alligator

195
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 1: arms Murray, so Gannon on the hot seat. He was

196
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: asked about this. He dismissed it. Of course, I'm great.

197
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: If he said yeah, they should probably fire my ass,

198
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: I suck. He didn't say that, he said he would

199
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: he wouldn't pay attention to it. He said, it's not controllable.

200
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 1: He said, quote, I didn't hire myself. I'm not going

201
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 1: to fire myself. Well, okay, that's the quote. Question what

202
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 1: are the chances? What are the chances that coach Jonathan

203
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 1: Gannon is Jonathan Gannon and he's out? What are the

204
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: chances he avoids the pinxil Let's look at that way?

205
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,560
Speaker 1: So what are the chances he actually stays in Arizona?

206
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: So the mallard of sports book odds, which is never

207
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: wrong because they're the maler of sports book gods, the

208
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: chances that Jonathan Gannon remained with the Cardinals of the

209
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: football variety is plus two thousand. Now, that implies, based

210
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: on the math, the mal of math about five percent,

211
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: give or take about five percent. So you'd be better

212
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:20,720
Speaker 1: off wandering through the deserts of Arizona with no water

213
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:25,240
Speaker 1: in July late July and just thinking, well, maybe I'll

214
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: stumble on some water somewhere. You know, you got better

215
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: odds of that happening. He's got a three forty one

216
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: winning percentage in Arizona and barreling towards his third straight

217
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 1: losing season. There. Cliff Kingsbury, who wasn't very good either

218
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:40,680
Speaker 1: he was. He was the guy that gave the player's

219
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 1: cell phone breaks during practice and the orange slices and

220
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: all that. He got run out of town. He had

221
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 1: one bad year, and this guy, Jonathan Gannon is stacking

222
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 1: up bad performances like wooden palletts in a warehouse, and

223
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 1: the whole reason that you hire a guy like that.

224
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: He was a defensive coach. He was with the Philadelphia Eagles,

225
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: and he's okay, he's going to fix the defense. They're

226
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: going to fix the defense. Okay, so let's see how

227
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: that's going. He's been there three years. First year thirty

228
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 1: second in the NFL. Second year twenty seventh, and now

229
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: they're twenty fifth in the NFL. So if you do

230
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 1: the math on that, you give another ten years, they'll

231
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 1: have the number one defense in the NFL. Not exactly

232
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 1: fixing things, it's kind of like you have a problem

233
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: with termites and you're like, let me hire the exterminator,

234
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 1: and the exterminator comes over and seals the house off

235
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,079
Speaker 1: and fumigates the house with the family still in the house.

236
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: That's essentially what's going going on here. And the bid Wells,

237
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:49,599
Speaker 1: the family that owns that team they're getting closer to

238
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: finally getting rid of alligator arms Murray. And once they

239
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: dump his little tush, they might as well just dump

240
00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 1: the coach as well. Get a fresh start and reboot

241
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: the whole thing, right, reboot the whole thing, and get

242
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: a new quarterback and a new coach, and get a

243
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: new sofa, get a new television, all that stuff, all right,

244
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 1: and now this is what they do. This is amazing

245
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: fun factor. So no Cardinals coach has lasted six seasons

246
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 1: since they became the Cardinals when they well the Arizona

247
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: or they were the Phoenix Cardinals for a while when

248
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: they moved from Saint Louis in nineteen eighty eight. Nineteen

249
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: eighty eight. That's been a minute. So this franchise treats

250
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: stability like it's contagious. They also can't seem to hire

251
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: a good coach to save their life, maybe once every generation.

252
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 1: And johnthan Gannon is a again defensive guy coaching a

253
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: bad defense and it's like hiring a chef or in

254
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 1: this case, a baker, and the baker comes in he said, well,

255
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: I really, you know, I love My favorite thing is toast.

256
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: I love perfectly made toast. And the baker says, well,

257
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: I I make toast all the time. That's it's not

258
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: really a baked that cookies. I make toast. I'll make

259
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 1: toast for you, sure, And he said, well, who do

260
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: you make toast for? I want to make toast for

261
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: Jim Nantz. I like burnt toast, and he likes burnt toast,

262
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: and I don't like burnt toast. But anyway, so again

263
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: it's a dead man walking in the valley of the sun.

264
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: Now the last word here we go now to Mowtown.

265
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 1: The Detroit football team hosting the New York NFC football

266
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: team that would be the Giants this weekend. Not a

267
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 1: game that has a lot of juice to it. Not

268
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: a game that has a lot of juice to it.

269
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: And some interesting comments by Dan Campbell, the coach of

270
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: your Detroit Lions. Question, how do you process? Lions coach

271
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:52,640
Speaker 1: Dan Campbell praising the Giants quote fresh energy? Fresh energy

272
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 1: was the quote under interim coach Mike Kofka. So on

273
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:02,000
Speaker 1: this one, Dan Campbell suddenly turning into the meathead Lou

274
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 1: Holtz on this SoundBite, just buttering the popcorn of the opponent. Here. Now,

275
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: the term that predates Lou Holtz is called poor mouthing.

276
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: You can look it up. I'm not making that up.

277
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: Poor mouthing one oh one, and he's taking that fresh

278
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 1: energy fresh energy under Mike Kafka, like the Giants somehow

279
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 1: just discovered fire and the wheel and just wonderful. It's like,

280
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,440
Speaker 1: give me a break. It's the oldest move in the

281
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: coaching world. You're a double digit favorite, you being the

282
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 1: Detroit Lions. What are you gonna do? You inflate the

283
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 1: other guy. You turn them into the Jimmy Johnson, Troy Aikman,

284
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: Michael Irvin, emmittt Smith Cowboys back in the day. And

285
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: you're like, well, my team's not gonna get get caught

286
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 1: flat footage, sleepwalking all that, and Campbell he sees the odds.

287
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 1: This is a trap game situation. You're not getting up

288
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: for it. The Lions have a Thanksgiving game next week,

289
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 1: as they always play on Thanksgiving, and so this is

290
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: a game you kind of get through and then the

291
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: whole world's watching next week and you see the standings

292
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: and so it's mental gymnastics, is what it is. It's

293
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:17,720
Speaker 1: mental gymnastics now. The fresh energy thing, that's that's what

294
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 1: they say when a team fires the coach and still blows.

295
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 1: There she blows. It's a red bull energy. The Giants

296
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,959
Speaker 1: win three or four games a year. They don't beat anybody.

297
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,880
Speaker 1: Let's not rewrite the Bible over here. Dan Campbell knows

298
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: what this is. He's just planting some insurance, is what

299
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 1: he's doing. If Detroit goes out and wins the game

300
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 1: in a dominating fashion, which according to the pointspread, they're

301
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: supposed to be doing if they win this game, big big, big,

302
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,239
Speaker 1: big big big, big, big big big. Then he said, well, yeah, hey,

303
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,239
Speaker 1: we respected him. We showed up to play. And now

304
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 1: if they don't, if they don't win big, well we warned,

305
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,640
Speaker 1: we warned. Guys. You know this is fresh energy. Now

306
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 1: the Lions actually lose this somehow, you might have to

307
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 1: cancel the Thanksgiving game in Detroit and pull the Ford

308
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 1: Field fire alarm. You might have to do that, and

309
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: then Dan Campbell's knee biting card will be taken away.

310
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: No more knee biting for you. So there's that.

Speaker 1: But here's the thing.

317
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 4: We never have enough time to get to everything we

318
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 4: want to get to.

319
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 5: And that's why we have a brand new podcast called

320
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 5: over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun in

321
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 5: our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,

322
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 5: because this guy is over promising things we never have

323
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 5: time for. Yeah, you blobber li lame and me.

324
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,120
Speaker 4: Well, you know what it's called over promise. You should

325
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:54,840
Speaker 4: be good at it because you've been over promising women

326
00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 4: for years.

327
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 5: Well, it's a Cavino and Rich after show, and we

328
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 5: want you to be a part of it. We're gonna

329
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 5: be talking, of course, but we're also going to talk

330
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,440
Speaker 5: life and relationships. And if Rich and I are arguing

331
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 5: about something or we didn't have enough time, it will

332
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,160
Speaker 5: continue on our after show called over Promised.

333
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 4: Well, if you don't get enough Covino and Rich, make

334
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 4: sure you check out over Promised and also Uncensored, by

335
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 4: the way, so maybe we'll go at it even.

336
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 1: A little harder.

337
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 4: It's gonna be the best after show podcast of all time.

338
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: There you go, over promising.

339
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 5: Remember you could see it on YouTube, but definitely join us.

340
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,920
Speaker 5: Listen over Promised with Cavino and Rich on the iHeartRadio app,

00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 5: Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

342
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 1: Our lead this hour from the high speed sports wires.

343
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 1: My old mentor in San Diego used to say, as

344
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 1: we try not to throw a wobbler, so we head

345
00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:44,880
Speaker 1: to the buy you as the transaction wire heating up.

346
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 1: If you did not hear about this, perhaps not well

347
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: if you missed it. The New Orleans Saints have fired

348
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: wide receiver Brandon Cooks. He will become a free agent,

349
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: assuming he is not claimed on waivers. I don't know

350
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 1: why anyone would claim him, as his career is in

351
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:05,400
Speaker 1: ashes at this point, Cooks asked to be fired. And

352
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: the team that made the paper bag famous, the team

353
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 1: that's now back to the Aints. They're Innaulvence. And now,

354
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: if you dig a little deeper, Cooks had a bunch

355
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 1: of incentives in his contract for things like receptions and

356
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 1: touchdowns and playing time and receiving yards. Would you like

357
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: to take a guess how many of those incentives he

358
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 1: reached this year? Yeah? None, none. That is a body blow,

359
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,239
Speaker 1: body blow, body blow. He finished his time in New

360
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,199
Speaker 1: Orleans his second run with the Saints with nineteen catches

361
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 1: for one hundred and sixty five yards and as many

362
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: touchdowns as you and I scored none. All right, so

363
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,680
Speaker 1: that is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss

364
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 1: this is post trade deadline. This is a player that

365
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 1: the Saints tried to trade nobody wanted. So the question

366
00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:59,679
Speaker 1: does former Saints wide receiver Brandon Cooks budge the needle

367
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,440
Speaker 1: at all? Does he budge the needle at all? My

368
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: observations on this. I've got Alan Wrench, Elmer's brand ambassador,

369
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 1: and The Big Lebowski, a classic movie, and we will

370
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,239
Speaker 1: combine all of these things together, and we are going

371
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 1: to hire an exterminator to kill the gremlins, is what

372
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 1: we're going to do, all right. Rap punch right to

373
00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: the gut, right to the gut is what we're gonna do,

374
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:31,320
Speaker 1: all right. So number wh I said number? Why? Yes?

375
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: All right? So I would say it's not a zero.

376
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 1: The needle moves a smidge, just a smidge. This is

377
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:46,919
Speaker 1: not clearly Puka Nakua. It's not Justin Jefferson or Jamar

378
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 1: Chase spitting a loogie in your face. This is a

379
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,879
Speaker 1: depth piece, that's all. This is He's a receiver that is.

380
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: I don't even know how serviceable he is. You put

381
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 1: him in the huddle, he won't hurt you. He's obviously

382
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: not the focal point Brandon Cooks of anyone's offense at

383
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 1: this point. You know what he is. He's like an

384
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 1: Alan wrench. You know everyone's got that junk drawer. He's

385
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: the Allen wrench in the junk drawer. You keep it

386
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: around because you might need it. It could be useful,

387
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: but you're not building the house with it. You know

388
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Cooks might be the Johnny Cash of

389
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 1: the NFL because he has been everywhere. Man, He's traveled

390
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,359
Speaker 1: every road in this year football land he has. He

391
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 1: started with the Saints, went to the Patriots, was traded

392
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: again to the Rams, Texans, Cowboys. Now he's gone back

393
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 1: to the New Orleans Saints and he's on the market again.

394
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,400
Speaker 1: So that's one, two, three, four, five, five teams. He's

395
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,159
Speaker 1: thirty two years old. He just turned thirty two, not

396
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 1: that long ago. He's got more luggage tags than Delta

397
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 1: Airlines has available. And this dude has been traded so

398
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 1: many times. Imagine the Marriotte points, because when you change

399
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: teams during the year. He's done that a couple of times.

400
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 1: You end up living in a hotel most of the time.

401
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 1: And so this production of Cooks at one point very productive.

402
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,679
Speaker 1: That's what teams wanted him. And he has been fading

403
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 1: like the sun off in the horizon there, fading down,

404
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: and you're not getting the twenty seventeen vintage of Brandon Cooks.

405
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: That model has been discontinued. Yards per target down. At

406
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: the very peak, which was actually twenty sixteen, he averaged

407
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:38,120
Speaker 1: nine point three yards. Now he's in the mid sixes

408
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 1: this season. His legs not young, not young, over one

409
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 1: thousand snaps a year. Eventually, the mileage, it affects the

410
00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,959
Speaker 1: injured quality of the engine. And so what you're signing

411
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 1: is a high end number three receiver, wink wink, a

412
00:23:55,000 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 1: situational number two receiver, possibly in the red zone. Own

413
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 1: you can get something out of him. Occasionally he'll go

414
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 1: into the hot tub time machine Brandon Cooks, and he'll

415
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 1: burn one down the sidelines. But Cooks does not change

416
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,640
Speaker 1: the trajectory of your season. He does not. He's there

417
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 1: for depth. He's a nice player. You could talk about

418
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,439
Speaker 1: what he used to be. He doesn't move the needle,

419
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: just a little smidge. That's it now, page two, that say,

420
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 1: we all know one of the great things about life.

421
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,120
Speaker 1: One man's trash is another man's treasure. If you don't

422
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 1: believe that, go to like a good Will store or

423
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: any of the any of the stores where they sell

424
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 1: you know what, one of my friends, you say, dead

425
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 1: people's stuff. You know, people that die and they donate

426
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 1: their stuff when they're gone, and people run to buy

427
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: that stuff at thrift shops and all that. So again,

428
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 1: one man's trash, another man's treasure. So we know that

429
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 1: this is not a dynamic playmaker at this point, but

430
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: he's going to continue to hammer away. And clearly he

431
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: made the decision that there's somebody that wants You don't

432
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: ask to be fired from the job that you have

433
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,280
Speaker 1: if you have nothing else out there that would be

434
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: that would be ridiculous. So the question I have now

435
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: deputized you as the career counselor for the ballplayer. Okay,

436
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 1: so the question where should wide receiver Brandon Cooks take

437
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: his talents, the wandering white out and that big suitcase

438
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,480
Speaker 1: to finish the season and most likely his career. So

439
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 1: after eight minutes long deliberation. Of the available options, there

440
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 1: are two primetime landing spots and sleeper team. Sleeper Team,

441
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 1: Sleeper Team. Now at the very top. This is not

442
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 1: a list for Terry and England. This is not a list.

443
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:48,440
Speaker 1: It's Big Ben's Big board, which is nothing like a list.

444
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:53,360
Speaker 1: It's Big Ben's big board. And the first up here.

445
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 1: Here we go, Buffalo, Here we go, Buffalo. Josh Allen

446
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 1: the Bazooka arm An MVP season a year ago. What's

447
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: not to like? And the Bills don't have much at

448
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: the wide receiver position. There's some reports out here that

449
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: Keon Coleman, who was benched for malfeasance last week, is

450
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 1: going to be benched again for the game coming up

451
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,399
Speaker 1: here on Thursday night in Houston. So Keon Coleman's in

452
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 1: the doghouse. He's in the very back of the doghouse.

453
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,640
Speaker 1: Heck he's He's not in the back of the doghouse.

454
00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: He's in the basement of the dog house. Oh, they

455
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 1: don't have a basement of the doghouse. Well, yes they do.

456
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,480
Speaker 1: Now He's in the basement of the doghouse. So they

457
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 1: need help there, and that would be a smart football fit.

458
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 1: In theory, Josh Allen the deep ball, and every once

459
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,199
Speaker 1: in a while you could get a throwback highlight from

460
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks maybe once a game or one and a

461
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 1: half times on average per game. Now if not Western

462
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 1: New York, do I hear Kansas City? You can go

463
00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,919
Speaker 1: there and Andy read and loves a good lottery ticket

464
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: and Brandon Coosk can enjoy the Ben Mallard chicken fingers

465
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: at the landing and Liberty Missouri delicious food. Rashie Rice

466
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 1: is the man. He's the man. Although they didn't throw

467
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: to a much in the second half of the game

468
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: against Denver, but Rashie Rice, that's it, that's all. They

469
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 1: certainly could use another grown up in the room there

470
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 1: at the wide receiver position, a savvy veteran who knows

471
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: how to line up and can run, run the route

472
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 1: or root and uh and not be worried about social media.

473
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 1: And hey Cooks playing with Mahomes every once in a while,

474
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,160
Speaker 1: why not give it a shot, right, Mahomes likes throwing

475
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: to old dudes. He throws to Kelsey all the time. Now,

476
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: the sleeper team, sleeper team, the Insers, Petsburg. Don't don't laugh,

477
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 1: do not know, don't laugh. Mike Tomlin has a PhD

478
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: in veteran rehab. He does, and he loves football guys.

479
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:04,760
Speaker 1: I love my football guys. Oh yeah, absolute the tape war,

480
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: his lunch pale grinders and all that. So Aaron Rodgers

481
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,360
Speaker 1: at this point needs all the help he can get.

482
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 1: Don't have that much to get the DK Metcalf obviously,

483
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 1: he's great, great player. There's not much else there. Now

484
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 1: we realize in a league that is absolutely obsessed, completely

485
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 1: obsessed with youngness, right, you know you want youth, it's

486
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: it's forty times, it's are you under the age of

487
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: twenty five? A guy like Brandon Cooks Still, there's still

488
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,880
Speaker 1: a place for a guy like that, even though he's

489
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 1: running on fumes at this point. Brandon Cooks is an

490
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: Elmer's Glue brand adbassador. He's a glue guy, glue guy,

491
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: glue guy. Yep. He's a good guy, which means he's

492
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 1: not that good anymore, but used to be good and

493
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: has some redeeming qualities that makes you a glue guy.

494
00:28:57,880 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 1: He's a glue guy. He's not good again, not get

495
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: you inter season. He won't ruin it, and there's a

496
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 1: chance he actually is value added. It's kind of like

497
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 1: Cooks think of him like if he was a phone,

498
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 1: he would be an iPhone, but he'd be like an

499
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 1: iPhone seven. Now, nobody needs an iPhone seven. Not exciting.

500
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: It still works, you know he need it. You know

501
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:23,480
Speaker 1: you want the newest one. But it's okay. You know

502
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 1: it still works and all the apps work for the

503
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: most part, and all that and nothing to really complain about.

504
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 2: All right.

505
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: Now, final point, we go to the land Cleveland to

506
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 1: be exactly where Shauldur Sanders announced. I know you're very

507
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 1: concerned about the new quarterback there in Cleveland. Should announced

508
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: that he is excited. He's excited to make his first

509
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 1: career start for the Brownies versus the Raiders. He said, quote,

510
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 1: I'm just excited for everything. I feel like I'm the guy.

511
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: I know, I'm the guy Shoulder is saying, and said

512
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:05,719
Speaker 1: that's the money quote the spawn of Dion. He's going

513
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 1: to fill in for the concussed Dylan Gabriel who is

514
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 1: currently well, he's taking some advill he's got a migraine

515
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 1: headache from the concussion protocol and all that. So the

516
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 1: question on this one Shader Sanders saying that he feels

517
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: like he's the guy for the Browns. Are you okay

518
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: with this? Are you okay with?

519
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 4: So?

520
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 1: This is on brand and as a struggling overnight gas bag.

521
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: Struggling overnight gas bag would not have it any other way.

522
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 1: The thing that I am most impressed with from paying

523
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: attention to the story around Shuldhar Sanders is how powerful

524
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: the Dion Caucus is in the NFL. Now we knew

525
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: Dion was a star back in the day, in the

526
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 1: eighties and the nineties and all that, it's been a minute.

527
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: The amount of influence that Dion Sanders has from all

528
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: the media jobs and all his buddies, his ex players

529
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 1: that are all doing meathead podcasts and all. I mean,

530
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 1: it's wild. I think this is the people talk about

531
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: the most most powerful political party, well, Democrats, Republican number three,

532
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 1: the Dion Caucus, my goodness, prime time politics. Really it's wild.

533
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 1: But as far as sure, this is showmanship, it's arrogance,

534
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 1: it's bravado. It's a modern day Big Lebowski, one of

535
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 1: the great movies. It's an old movie, but I highly

536
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,840
Speaker 1: recommend it. And in this case, you've got Sadr Sanders

537
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 1: who's announcing to you and to me and the world.

538
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 1: He says, hey, listen, I'm the dude or his dudinus

539
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,920
Speaker 1: or el duderino. And if you're not into the whole

540
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 1: brevity thing and all that stuff, but he's got swagger.

541
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 1: Well you know, hopefully he has his own advil as well,

542
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: because life hits you fast in the NFL.

543
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 4: We know that.

544
00:31:55,520 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: And good luck. You're not going to get a parade here, Beau,

545
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,840
Speaker 1: because your dad was a great player in a different

546
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 1: generation of the NFL. And we'll see how Shooter does.

547
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 1: Hard to imagine he'll be any worse than he was

548
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 1: in the opening performance there. But the test will be

549
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 1: when it's third down at eight and you've got Max

550
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 1: Crosby chasing you down like a junkyard dog. What are

551
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 1: you gonna do? What are you gonna do? So the Raiders, though,

552
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 1: if you think of this like a restaurant, I've had

553
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 1: a few friends of mine over the years that have

554
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 1: gotten into restaurants and they always say, well, you open

555
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 1: the restaurant, a million things that can go wrong. You

556
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 1: always have to have a soft launch before you have

557
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 1: the official official launch. And soft launch is normally friends

558
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 1: and family, friends and family, and you know, maybe somebody

559
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 1: will come in and just happen to be there and

560
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: look at your restaurant, and you want everyone in the

561
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: kitchen to know what they're doing and everything like that,

562
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 1: and you want to have just a small crowd, not

563
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 1: too busy. And in the NFL, if you're a quarterback,

564
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 1: you want to start against the Raiders because that defense

565
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 1: is cotton candy other than Mac Crosby cotton candy. We

566
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: like cotton candy, but you don't really need functioning teeth

567
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 1: to eat cotton candy. And as cam Ward would say,

568
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: total ass, total ass. So as for Shoulder say, it's

569
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: the Browns are praying that they get the razzle dazzle

570
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: and not just the frazzle. They want that razzle dazzle.

571
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: The damage control. I go back to the Dion caucus.

572
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 1: With circle back to the Dion Caucus. It's happened. Anyone

573
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:33,280
Speaker 1: and everyone who has Dion's phone number has magically blamed,

574
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 1: among other things, the offensive line, the play calling, the weather,

575
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 1: the lack of practice reps. I believe mercury being in

576
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: retrograde has also been blamed. We'll having to check with

577
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 1: our astrology insider. Some kind of cosmic event in the

578
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: Farmer's Almanac and essentially anything but Shader. He is not

579
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 1: culpable at all. He gets a full pardon from the

580
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 1: Dion Caccas. And you can tell who exactly is in

581
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 1: Dion's DMS, who's getting text messages from Dion based on

582
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:11,319
Speaker 1: how loud they are capping for his kid. It's wild.

583
00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 1: No shame, no shame that. There was a point, you know,

584
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:17,800
Speaker 1: I got again, I'm getting old. But there was a

585
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:20,360
Speaker 1: point where people would never take part in that because

586
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 1: it was so embarrassing. Now they're lining up to wear

587
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 1: knee pads with Dion's logo on it to support the kid.

588
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 1: It's wild. We got generation after generation of excuses and

589
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,360
Speaker 1: all of that, of course, is prologue. And if you

590
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 1: say you're the guy, if you say that, then you

591
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,320
Speaker 1: go out and be the guy. You know, do I

592
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: expect him to play well? No, although, boy, the Raiders

593
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:51,720
Speaker 1: are so they're so bad, uh, I mean, the NFL

594
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 1: generally does expose the fraudsters, the con artists right faster

595
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 1: than Dion's dad can sen out a message saying here

596
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 1: are the talking points for you on television, Here are

597
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: the talking points for you, you insider, A woman who

598
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,440
Speaker 1: just repeats whatever I tell you, that kind of thing,

599
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,800
Speaker 1: because I'm the Big Khuda, the Big Khuda.

600
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller

601

Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.

602
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 1: It's Mallard. How about that? To the third degree? This

603
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 1: is one big bent gets grilled. All right, here we

604
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:32,600
Speaker 1: go cool.

605
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 6: I was reported on Tuesday that Aaron Rodgers will not

606
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,560
Speaker 6: need surgery on his left wrist, and he's reportedly pushing

607
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 6: to play this week. He's spoke to the media said

608
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 6: it's more of a safety issue than a pain tolerance issue.

609
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 6: But do you think the stealers should let him play

610
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 6: against the Bears?

611
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, you only get seventeen games. If he's medically

612
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: cleared the play, he should play. I don't see what

613
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,879
Speaker 1: the issue is. That's a winnable game, that's a toss

614
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 1: up game. The Bears have a good record. They've been

615
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,959
Speaker 1: winning with as Tree in Chicago and yourphemeio in weird ways.

616
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 1: But yeah, if he's able to go, and he's medically cleared,

617
00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 1: there's no reason not to play him. I'd put him

618
00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:07,879
Speaker 1: out there next.

619
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,359
Speaker 6: There's apparently chatter in some circles that the Vikings will

620
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 6: explore trading for Mac Jones this upcoming offseason. Do you

621
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:18,440
Speaker 6: think Jones is a good insurance policy for JJ McCarthy, He.

622
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,800
Speaker 1: Is an insurance policy. I do not know that I

623
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,800
Speaker 1: would use the word good. I do not know that

624
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 1: I would use the word good in that there are

625
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,319
Speaker 1: some advantages to mac Jones. He has cooled off though,

626
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: right for a couple of weeks it looked like Bob

627
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 1: this guy's great, not so much anymore with the forty

628
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 1: nine ers, and now brock Perty's obviously back in the

629
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: picture and all that stuff. But you know, I don't

630
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 1: think there's gonna be a beating war for mac Jones.

631
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 6: How about that next well, Like Fatherlike Son, apparently as

632
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,880
Speaker 6: a bad season for the Buffaloes wraps up, Dean Sanders

633
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 6: addressed the media and assured everyone that Colorado has the

634
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 6: right man for the job. He is the guy. Do

635
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 6: they have the right man?

636
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,120
Speaker 1: Ben? It would be more fun if Deon said, you know,

637
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: I am not the right for the job. I am not,

638
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 1: and I'm in the cockpit on the vomit comment. It

639
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 1: is not going well. But Dion, it just looks like

640
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: he's he's one of those, not the vomit comment, but

641
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 1: like he's a comed He burned brightly for a little bit,

642
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:15,640
Speaker 1: quickly gone. That's it like or like a rainbow kind

643
00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 1: of fading off in the distance there. I love the

644
00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: Deon story, but man, does he look like he doesn't

645
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 1: know what he's doing this year. We'll give another year,

646
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:24,520

670
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 1: there was one time in Vegas. I was in the

671
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: sports book at where was it? I forget the name

672
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,840

673
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 1: newer ones in the middle of the strip, and there

674
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,920
Speaker 1: was like a wad of one hundred dollar bills. I

675
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 1: didn't take it. And the reason I didn't take it

676
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: there were cameras everywhere, and I had a feeling like

677
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:48,800
Speaker 1: if I took that, I could have been in some trouble.

678
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 1: You know, it was so much money. I didn't take it.

679
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: I did think about taking it. What about you, Lorena.

680
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 7: I know when I was little, I found one hundred

681
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,400
Speaker 7: dollars bill in a kmart that I definitely kept. But

682
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 7: Reese once again, in Vegas, my friend went into a

683
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:07,040
Speaker 7: bathroom stall and inside of an old like not a

00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,040
Speaker 7: tampon rapper, but a pad rapper, there was hundreds of

685
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,279
Speaker 7: dollars behind a toilet stuck wrapped in.

686
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 1: On a great way to hide toilet paper. Yah, know

687
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 1: I's going to touch that, right, Yeah, Yeah, that's good. Yeah,

Speaker 1: Book in Vegas. I found a big water money. I

690
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:23,879
