Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Hope you had a great weekend, everybody. It's
Speaker 1: a Monday, which means best and worst of the weekend
Speaker 1: which you saw that you liked, you didn't like. We're
Speaker 1: a dan at down, although you might argue you're not
Speaker 1: really a Dan at down. Mclovin is in Philadelphia, he's
Speaker 1: on a movie set. He has one line in an
Speaker 1: Adam Sandler movie. Mclovin will join us. He is a mess.
Speaker 1: Mclovin is an absolute mess today. He was over the
Speaker 1: weekend because he's gotten in his head. As an actor,
Speaker 1: you have to deliver a line, but you don't want
Speaker 1: to read a line. And mclovin has one line. That's it.
Speaker 1: He'll join us and will help him deliver that line,
Speaker 1: although he did say this morning that he didn't know
Speaker 1: if he was allowed to deliver the line because it
Speaker 1: might have something to do with the plot of the movie.
Speaker 1: And I went, shut up, it's a Sandler movie. Who
Speaker 1: cares about the plot? Yeah, Paul. He actually said the phrase,
Speaker 1: I can't tell you guys a line because this revelatory
Speaker 1: of the plot. Revelatory of the plot. Yes, time, when
Speaker 1: you first started your acting career. Did you obsess over
Speaker 1: these kind of lines and parts or did you write away?
Speaker 1: You just said, we're confident, never got stressed out like that.
Speaker 1: I think you think about it depending on who you're
Speaker 1: in the scene with. When I was in a scene
Speaker 1: with Anniston and Kidman, I really cared about what I
Speaker 1: was saying. And that's the one movie I've been in
Speaker 1: with Sandler that he gave me no script. He said, Danny,
Speaker 1: go out there and ad lib. And I got Jennifer
Speaker 1: Aniston and Nicole Kidman staring at me as if to say,
Speaker 1: do you even know how to act? Without saying that
Speaker 1: I could tell with their eyes what they were doing, yes.
Speaker 1: Or were you a method guy when you were a
Speaker 1: policeman in House Bunny? Did you do write along with
Speaker 1: lapd for a couple of weeks to get in character
Speaker 1: anything like that? Did talk to a police officer who
Speaker 1: was on set doing security, and I said, Hey, I
Speaker 1: have this line to deliver certain things about what I wear,
Speaker 1: how I wear it. When you go to the car,
Speaker 1: Anna Faris was in the car and I'm supposed to
Speaker 1: be checking on her as to why she's in the car. Yes,
Speaker 1: And I just said how would I approach that? And
Speaker 1: I did ask the police officer that. But then you
Speaker 1: have I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry. Where we're
Speaker 1: in Brooklyn, And right before we start the scene, that's
Speaker 1: when Kevin James goes, I think you should do a
Speaker 1: Brooklyn accent. I go, it's a little late in the
Speaker 1: game for that, keV. I don't have a Brooklyn accent
Speaker 1: in me. Yeah. Is do you think mclevin's in the
Speaker 1: Philadelphia immersing himself with local journalists, kind of getting back
Speaker 1: in the milieu for his line today. I don't know.
Speaker 1: But he left here Friday, and if I could have
Speaker 1: said to him, you don't have to go, I think
Speaker 1: he would have said, all right, I don't want to go.
Speaker 1: He kept saying, and he would give me the line
Speaker 1: I go stop. Remember when we were shooting something and
Speaker 1: McLevin had to walk and that's all we had to
Speaker 1: do in a scene. I said, McLevin, just walk. He couldn't.
Speaker 1: He was stiff. He looked like Herman Munster and I said,
Speaker 1: just walk. Mclovin. There's nothing natural about him. And he
Speaker 1: was grinding on Friday. Yeah. See, I'm sure the Emmy's
Speaker 1: being on two didn't help him because I know, you know,
Speaker 1: we watched some of that and then saw these great performances,
Speaker 1: and they just got in his own head even more
Speaker 1: about yes, and he's already pale, and he was letting
Speaker 1: that much more white and fear of what was waiting
Speaker 1: for him in Philadelphia, Age seven seven three d P

Speaker 1: Ravens Get by the Chiefs Titan surprised the Seahawks in Seattle,
Speaker 1: Cowboys over the Chargers. Tonight the Lions at the Packers.
Speaker 1: You know, the key play in the win last night
Speaker 1: by the Ravens over the Chiefs may have been Lamar
Speaker 1: Jackson's fourth down conversion with just over a minute left.
Speaker 1: In fact, here is John Harbaugh being asked about that
Speaker 1: call on the play. No, there wasn't, but maybe I
Speaker 1: wanted to be sure myself. You know, I knew he's
Speaker 1: gonna say yes, so, but we were going for at
Speaker 1: that point. Would there have been a dot to join
Speaker 1: any other player at quarterbacks in all? Well, Mahomes, I'll
Speaker 1: bet there going for to with Patrick Mahomes. How about that?
Speaker 1: Here's Lamar Jackson on that fourth down call. What was
Speaker 1: the conversation with coach like before that last four down call?
Speaker 1: Go for it? Like? Hell yeah again? I said it again?
Speaker 1: Um like Seattle two years ago, he told me to play.
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, it was just better my coach Ica
Speaker 1: is he like you gotta go? I'm like, man, I
Speaker 1: gotta get this first down no matter what. I got
Speaker 1: a job, doctor, little defender and Orlan did a great
Speaker 1: job pushing those guys back I got first down for
Speaker 1: the victory. Yeah, there was a big call there, but
Speaker 1: of course Jackson's gonna say yes or hell yes, hey
Speaker 1: you want to go for it? No, I think we
Speaker 1: should punt coach. He wants the ball. They forty two
Speaker 1: yard jump pass that he had stood out to me um.
Speaker 1: Normally we have a jump pass of the goal line.
Speaker 1: Now Tim Tebow gave us jump passes at the goal line,
Speaker 1: but Hollywood Brown had the catch went in for the score.
Speaker 1: Jackson's flipped into the end zone on a short touchdown run.
Speaker 1: It's only one game, and I know we need to
Speaker 1: remind ourselves it's one game, good or bad, it's one game.
Speaker 1: But they were in danger of falling. Oh and two.
Speaker 1: It's Jackson's first win over Patrick Mahomes after three losses,
Speaker 1: and the Ravens have had some bad luck with injuries there.
Speaker 1: They could have lost last night if the Chiefs didn't
Speaker 1: fumble the ball in that potential game winning drive. But
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson always gives you a chance, and he threw
Speaker 1: that pick six. He threw a couple interceptions early and
Speaker 1: I thought it was gonna go ugly south in a hurry,
Speaker 1: and in fact, there were Peeple on Twitter saying, no,
Speaker 1: you got to get him out of there. I went, no, No,
Speaker 1: where were these people in the fourth quarter? Yeah, couldn't
Speaker 1: find him. But man, does he give you a kind
Speaker 1: of excitement that no other quarterback gives you In the NFL.
Speaker 1: There were a couple of surprises. I said to the Danets,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if the Titans beat Seattle. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if the Cowboys won in LA. But
Speaker 1: I was really surprised with the Raiders beating the Pittsburgh
Speaker 1: Steelers because Derek Carr one of just ten quarterbacks. It's
Speaker 1: nineteen forty eight with over eight hundred passing yards in
Speaker 1: the first two games of a season and the first
Speaker 1: time since Patrick Mahomes in twenty nineteen. But he threw
Speaker 1: for three eighty two two touchdowns. Raiders beating the Steelers,
Speaker 1: that wouldn't surprise to me. Lions and the Packers tonight.
Speaker 1: Is this where we go, Oh the Packers are back,
Speaker 1: you know? Or what if they struggle tonight, then what happens?
Speaker 1: Because That's what I'm looking for. I'm as much as
Speaker 1: we want to go, Hey, all right, you can come
Speaker 1: back to reality. Here, you got the Lions. What if
Speaker 1: the Lions actually play well against green Bay? Green Bay
Speaker 1: is favored by eleven. I don't know if that's the
Speaker 1: biggest point spread of the weekend. It was, Yeah, there's
Speaker 1: only two that were over ten points. Make sure you
Speaker 1: check out the DP show's store all this week we're

Speaker 1: We know how much we love celebrating birthday weeks around here.
Speaker 1: It's not just a birthday, it's a birthday week. I
Speaker 1: love it. We took advantage of it, all right, who's
Speaker 1: handling poll question duty? Since McLevin is on the movie set.
Speaker 1: I got a couple of mclovin's, got a couple for later. Okay,
Speaker 1: So all right here it is first poll question. We
Speaker 1: do this every year. The two and O team that
Speaker 1: will not make the playoffs, the two and O team.
Speaker 1: We like the burst bubbles here well, we like to
Speaker 1: skew negative, Yes, two and no team that won't make
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Rams, Buccaneers, forty nine, Ers, Cardinals, Broccos, Raiders, Panthers.
Speaker 1: I think it's those last three that are in play Yeah,
Speaker 1: so Rams will make playoffs. Buccaneers, Niners, Cardinals are going
Speaker 1: to be right there, Broccos, Raiders, Panthers. You gotta pick
Speaker 1: one won't make the playoffs. What if I say all three?
Speaker 1: That's fair. It's your show. Yeah, Panthers look good. The
Speaker 1: Raiders have done this to us before. They've got us
Speaker 1: to buy in before November. Yeah, that's even when you
Speaker 1: know the Raiders themselves, like Derek carrs like, we just
Speaker 1: can't blow this. We can't let this slip away. Um.
Speaker 1: I mean the Broncos beat the Giants and beat Jacksonville,
Speaker 1: Raiders beat Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh. That's pretty big deal. Panthers,
Speaker 1: all right, the Saints there had to be a little
Speaker 1: bit of a letdown. And for everybody who was all
Speaker 1: in on Jamis Winston, you can't bail. You can't bail
Speaker 1: after that performance. Because I heard he's it could be
Speaker 1: a dark horse MVP candidate, and I go, okay, it'll
Speaker 1: be a real, real, real dark horse MVP candidate after
Speaker 1: what happened yesterday. But but that's who jamis Winston is.
Speaker 1: He giveth, he taketh away, and give credit. Panthers played,
Speaker 1: they went after him, but these ill advised passes went
Speaker 1: when when you're under duress and you still throw Those
Speaker 1: are the things I hate seeing from him. There were
Speaker 1: two passes where I go, just eat it, throw it away,
Speaker 1: don't throw it up for grabs. But give credit to Carolina. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I like that head coach, and uh, you know, give
Speaker 1: give credit to what they're doing. Sam Darnold, well doing
Speaker 1: just enough right now. You just don't want to lose
Speaker 1: those games. Just ask Minnesota. You had that game. You're
Speaker 1: gonna beat the Cardinals. Here's how it sounded at the
Speaker 1: end of the game. High Snow put down Joseph con
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me, mister Wright? He mister right? Ah?
Speaker 1: Oh by this he missed the right I wish this
Speaker 1: was the first time all we saw this happen. By heaven,
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals flat on the field capture beating the
Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings thirty four thirty three. That's courtesy of k
Speaker 1: f A and the Vikings radio network. Who missed it?
Speaker 1: Worse the place kicker or play by play, because that
Speaker 1: made it sound like it went right down the middle. God,
Speaker 1: you missed it. I love how a fast he's able
Speaker 1: to switch from you went right right. It wasn't close,
Speaker 1: like I mean, it's not a sure thing, but you
Speaker 1: made it sound like it was right down the middle.
Speaker 1: Oh miss rights? Right? You want a lottery you another
Speaker 1: power number? I'm sorry you missed it, buying number. Congratulate? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, now the number. Yeah. See it's
Speaker 1: a million scenarios in life where you that's like, hey,
Speaker 1: you got into college. Oh no, no, no, you didn't know. Yeah.
Speaker 1: You open up the letter and it says, congratulations you
Speaker 1: you've been accepted at Harvard. Oh no, you have now
Speaker 1: put down Joseph con Are you kidding me, mister Wright?
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? You imagine if you're listening to
Speaker 1: that in your car, you're driving. Wait what do you say? What? Wait? What? Wait?
Speaker 1: Did he say it was good? These are the kind
Speaker 1: of games that you look back at the end of
Speaker 1: the season and you go, remember that, remember that miss
Speaker 1: kick we had? Oh god, we should have won that game.
Speaker 1: Because we tend to look at those games and give
Speaker 1: a little bit more weight to the at the end
Speaker 1: of the season as opposed to those at the beginning
Speaker 1: of the season. You're bet with Tom Brady throwing the
Speaker 1: most interceptions of his career in a season. Okay, maybe
Speaker 1: they cooled off a little bit there soon. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: still in it though, I'm still in it. Still there's
Speaker 1: still a shot. Yeah, five touchdown passes? What did what
Speaker 1: did the Falcons do to the football gods? Like at
Speaker 1: some point, if there's a football god, does he go,
Speaker 1: all right, come on back in, all right, all right,
Speaker 1: all right, you guys. You celebrate it a little too soon,
Speaker 1: all right, come on back in. We're gonna let you
Speaker 1: get a couple of wins here. Like Matt Ryan doesn't
Speaker 1: deserve that. He doesn't deserve two tipped pick six is
Speaker 1: he doesn't deserve that, does he? He's a likable guy.
Speaker 1: I can't have him be held accountable for all of
Speaker 1: their sins. But oh, in the name of Steve bard Kowski,
Speaker 1: just give it Land, Just give him a little bit
Speaker 1: of give him a cookie, give him something there. And
Speaker 1: you know Brady loves this good okay, twenty eight three,
Speaker 1: But did you see that he posted the thing on
Speaker 1: social media at three twenty eight in the afternoon. Oh no,
Speaker 1: people are like, oh my god, he's rolling three twenty eight.
Speaker 1: It's great. He's starting to get a little Michael Jordan's
Speaker 1: she's starting to like pile on when he's got the
Speaker 1: big lead phone calls. We'll get to those best and
Speaker 1: worst of the weekend. Our good buddy Ross Tucker was
Speaker 1: at the game last night with the Ravens in the Chiefs.
Speaker 1: Nice and Ross will join us Good and mclovin will
Speaker 1: join us from the Adam Sandler movie set, where I'll
Speaker 1: try to help him rehearse his line line not even

Speaker 1: team will make the playoffs Jags, Colts, Giants, Vikings, Falcons none.
Speaker 1: I guess I would still say the Colds because they
Speaker 1: have a lot of talent. Carson Wentz got hurt again yesterday.
Speaker 1: The Giants we saw them on Thursday night. Vikings should
Speaker 1: have won that game. Falcons they got roughed up. I'll
Speaker 1: say the Colts just because of that division, and you
Speaker 1: would expect them to play a whole lot better. But man,
Speaker 1: it's if it comes down to Carson Wentz his health availability,
Speaker 1: they could be teetering on the brink. There the two
Speaker 1: and O team that won't make the playoffs. I guess
Speaker 1: it would be between Broncos, Raiders and Panthers. Let's go
Speaker 1: with that one. The two and O team that won't
Speaker 1: make the playoffs. Ross Tucker host of the Ross Tucker
Speaker 1: Football Podcast. He works for CBS Westwood One part of
Speaker 1: the Eagles pregame yesterday and also on the call. Saturday,
Speaker 1: Connecticut played Army on CBS, and then he worked last night.
Speaker 1: Westwood won the Ravens and the Chiefs, and I think
Speaker 1: he was at a high school game on Friday night.
Speaker 1: Did I get your itinerary correct there? Ross? You know what? Dan?
Speaker 1: Pretty good? Yeah? Man? I drove up. I live in Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: drove up to West Point on Thursday. Obviously, I watched
Speaker 1: Washington and the Giants, as you know, production meetings all
Speaker 1: day Friday with the Yukon and Army coaches and players.
Speaker 1: But yes, I am an American citizen, Dan. It was
Speaker 1: a Friday night, so I got in my car and
Speaker 1: I drove until I found some lights. I actually went
Speaker 1: and saw Army prep play. But that's what you should
Speaker 1: do in America on a Friday night. You should find
Speaker 1: lights and go. So I went and watched Army prep play.
Speaker 1: I don't even know who they were playing. Friday night Saturday,
Speaker 1: did Yukon Army? I drive home? Dan, I made my wife.
Speaker 1: I got home at seven fifteen Saturday night, just in
Speaker 1: time to watch the Penn State White Out game. I
Speaker 1: made my wife stay up and watched the whole thing
Speaker 1: with me. Got up Sunday morning Eagles pregame, watched the
Speaker 1: Eagles and the one o'clock games. Drive to Baltimore through
Speaker 1: the Ravens Chiefs, got home at two thirty, went to
Speaker 1: bed at three, got up at seven. Now I'm on
Speaker 1: the Dan Patrick Show. We have mad respect for you,
Speaker 1: we do. Let me ask you the pull question, the
Speaker 1: two and O team that won't make the playoffs. If
Speaker 1: I said Broncos, Raiders, Panthers, Cardinals got a pick, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go Cardinals. I would go Cardinals out of that bunch.
Speaker 1: Extremely fortunate to win that game yesterday. You know, Dan,
Speaker 1: I'm literally in the booth in Baltimore watching the Red
Speaker 1: Zone channel as the late game's end. And I gotta
Speaker 1: tell you, man, I know we've talked about it before.
Speaker 1: It just bothers me. I mean, almost the exact same time.
Speaker 1: I watched Zerline make like a fifty six yarder for
Speaker 1: the Cowboys to win, and Greg Joseph for the Vikings
Speaker 1: misses like a thirty five yarder, and I feel bad
Speaker 1: for him. I mean, he's got to go in that
Speaker 1: locker room and there's one hundred men just looking at him.
Speaker 1: He let them all down. Then they go on the plane.
Speaker 1: It just it still rubs me the wrong way that
Speaker 1: one guy makes it, one guy misses it, and everything
Speaker 1: changes as a result. But they answer your question. I
Speaker 1: just still think Arizona's division is too difficult. You know,
Speaker 1: they've gotten off to a good start, but I don't
Speaker 1: think they're better than the Rams, the Seahawks, or the
Speaker 1: Niners necessarily. As far as the game last night with
Speaker 1: the Ravens and the Chiefs, when you looked at that
Speaker 1: first quarter, what were you thinking was going to happen
Speaker 1: with the Ravens and Chiefs. Well, I thought it could
Speaker 1: get ugly. And last night sort of surprised me in
Speaker 1: the sense that I thought you had to play almost
Speaker 1: flawless to beat the Chiefs, right, you know, I thought
Speaker 1: the margin for error was so small, but actually, you know,
Speaker 1: they throw a pick six in the first minute, and
Speaker 1: then on their third drive they're running the ball all
Speaker 1: over the Chiefs and for some reason, Greg Roman called
Speaker 1: three straight passes from the twenty four yard line. Lamar
Speaker 1: throws another pick. That one was all on him and
Speaker 1: I thought, man, especially when it was thirty five twenty
Speaker 1: four after that catch and run by Kelsey. But if
Speaker 1: you follow me on social media and I know you do, Dan,
Speaker 1: I knew the Ravens we're gonna win that game in
Speaker 1: the second half because they had crab cakes at halftime.
Speaker 1: I am a big believer that it starts with the
Speaker 1: press box food. You set the tone for the organization
Speaker 1: and the entire operation. And at halftime when they brought
Speaker 1: out the crab cakes, check my social media. Everybody at
Speaker 1: Ross Tucker, NFL. I literally said, I expect a huge
Speaker 1: second half here from the Ravens, and they delivered. It
Speaker 1: started with the decision earlier in the week to do
Speaker 1: crab cakes at halftime. You're sleep deprived? You are? You are?
Speaker 1: Is there a formula to beat the Chiefs? Well, so
Speaker 1: they did a couple of things that they rarely do.
Speaker 1: And let's be honest, Dan, if Edwards Hilayered doesn't fumble,
Speaker 1: they still win the game. You know, Buckker makes a
Speaker 1: chip shot field goal and we're having a much different
Speaker 1: conversation today, So you know, it's not like the Ravens
Speaker 1: clearly got the better of them. I think one thing
Speaker 1: that is notable, though, is you can run on them again.
Speaker 1: And I think that that is your best bet is
Speaker 1: to pound the Chiefs, try to keep Mahomes on the
Speaker 1: sideline as much as possible. It's not just the time
Speaker 1: of possession thing. You still need to get some chunk plays.
Speaker 1: You still need to score points. I almost looked at
Speaker 1: it dan like, and I'm not a big tennis guy,
Speaker 1: but when you play the Chiefs, it's like you got
Speaker 1: to hold serve man. It's like you got a score
Speaker 1: when you get the ball. Because they are almost always
Speaker 1: going to they so rarely get broken except I think
Speaker 1: it might have been the last three or four drives
Speaker 1: that they got no points. That's the biggest shocker to me,
Speaker 1: because it feels like Mahomes and the Chiefs always come
Speaker 1: through in those situations. I know, with the Ravens having
Speaker 1: a star running back, I would just have an empty
Speaker 1: backfield and just say to the defense, Lamar is doing
Speaker 1: something here. You can't spy on him. And that would
Speaker 1: be my approach is let's just spread it out. Maybe
Speaker 1: have another either blocker or wide receiver and have an
Speaker 1: empty backfield and just say to Lamar, go get him.
Speaker 1: You know the only reason why I think they don't
Speaker 1: do that is because so many of his runs start
Speaker 1: with a fake to the running back and some type
Speaker 1: of misdirection. Now they'll give it to the running back
Speaker 1: sometimes on those wide runs, just to keep the defense honest.
Speaker 1: But you are a thousand percent right, Dan, when they're
Speaker 1: trying to get chunk yardage when they really need it,
Speaker 1: he is not handing that ball off. I mean he's
Speaker 1: faking it wide to the running back and he is
Speaker 1: coming downhill. I gotta tell you, you know, as a
Speaker 1: former offensive lineman, I love doing the Army games on
Speaker 1: Saturday because I you know, I love watching that offer
Speaker 1: of line play. But I'm telling you you know, my
Speaker 1: rookie year was two thousand and one. The Ravens have
Speaker 1: the most creative and entertaining run game I've ever seen
Speaker 1: in the NFL. I mean, it is so fun to watch.
Speaker 1: They're pulling guys one way, running the other, you know,
Speaker 1: the fullback leading the double tight ends. Greg Roman, their
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator, deserves a ton of credit because it is
Speaker 1: it is really exotic and fun. We're talking to Ross Tucker,
Speaker 1: host of the Ross Tucker Football podcast, also does work
Speaker 1: for CBS and Westwood One, and part of the Eagles
Speaker 1: pregame for WYP Radio. You believe in in the Raiders.
Speaker 1: I think you have to. I was stunned that they
Speaker 1: won that game yesterday, you know, after going Monday night
Speaker 1: game that you know, they had a valiant comeback in
Speaker 1: the fourth quarter and overtime, a late game Monday night
Speaker 1: goes to overtime to come to Pittsburgh against that defense.
Speaker 1: Now they're fortunate. Joe Hayden was out, Devin Bush was out,
Speaker 1: t J Watt got hurt. But I don't care, and
Speaker 1: you know Dan, I mean, I can't wait. I hope
Speaker 1: somebody does a like an MVP Frontrunner article this week
Speaker 1: or that that would be an awesome like radio segment.
Speaker 1: Who's in the league for the MVP. You know, it's
Speaker 1: like every year somebody fights to see who can be
Speaker 1: the first one to start the MVP if it ended
Speaker 1: right now conversation. But I'm just saying it's Derek car
Speaker 1: I mean, he has been awesome in the first two
Speaker 1: games against very good defense is very good opponents in
Speaker 1: the Ravens and Steelers. He's been probably the most Valuable
Speaker 1: player in the league so far. Okay, But the reason
Speaker 1: why I hate these MVP conversations because last week it
Speaker 1: was Jamis Winston. That's why we don't have these this
Speaker 1: early in this season. I know we love content. I
Speaker 1: know we love to have who's the MVP? You know,
Speaker 1: is it Tom Brady, is it Derek Carr week to week?
Speaker 1: That's that's why we had it Jameis Winston week one
Speaker 1: and then week two. You want to give it to
Speaker 1: Derek Carr, great, give it to Derek Farr and then
Speaker 1: let's see what happens in week three. Here, I did
Speaker 1: want to ask you about the Cowboys. What stood out
Speaker 1: from from Dallas's win in Los Angeles? Two things? Number one,
Speaker 1: and I said, I tweeted this yesterday, Dan, I feel
Speaker 1: like we need to acknowledge the fact it's been two
Speaker 1: years now. When you watch a Cowboys game, Tony Pollard
Speaker 1: just has more juice than Zeke. I agree. That's why
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have resigned Zeke. I mean, Dan, Zeke is
Speaker 1: better as a pass blocker, but come on, dude, we're
Speaker 1: not paying guys. I'm not paying him to be If
Speaker 1: I'm paying him to be a pass blocker that is
Speaker 1: money not will spent. Zack Martin is a guy that
Speaker 1: you pay to protect. Yeah, so Tony Pollard, I mean,
Speaker 1: Zeke will probably be gone after this year. They can't
Speaker 1: keep paying him. The other thing that set out to me,
Speaker 1: you know where I live here in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. I
Speaker 1: saw Micah Parsons Dan play his third high school game
Speaker 1: ever as a freshman, and he had like five sacks.
Speaker 1: And I texted the guys I know at Penn State
Speaker 1: and I was like, this freshman d END at Central
Speaker 1: Dolphin High Schools maybe the best I've ever seen. They
Speaker 1: offered him a scholarship Dan after his fourth game. Think
Speaker 1: about this though. Okay, he played linebacker at Penn State.
Speaker 1: Last week. DeMarcus Lawrence broke his foot. On Wednesday, they
Speaker 1: moved Micah Parsons to d END for the first time
Speaker 1: since high school. On Thursday, he had a sack. He
Speaker 1: had eight pressures, the most buyer rookie since Nick Bosa
Speaker 1: back in twenty nineteen. He hadn't played d N since
Speaker 1: high school. There's no chance the Cowboys win that game
Speaker 1: if he's not playing d N. My guess is they'll
Speaker 1: probably keep him there and It's kind of funny because
Speaker 1: think about yesterday Micah Parsons and Adafeo Way for the Ravens,
Speaker 1: both rookies, both from Penn State, and right now they're
Speaker 1: the two fastest defensive ends in the entire NFL and
Speaker 1: they're both rookies from Penn State. It's pretty wild. Is
Speaker 1: James Franklin gonna be at Penn State next year? I
Speaker 1: think he is. Yeah. I mean there's a couple of
Speaker 1: things there, right So number one, are we sure USC
Speaker 1: wants him? Are we sure he's the guy? You know?
Speaker 1: The A d And by the way, Dan, I love
Speaker 1: listening and watching because you seem to have better connections
Speaker 1: and sources for college football news than anybody else does
Speaker 1: out there. But I just feel like Dan, the ad
Speaker 1: for USC came from Cincinnati. I mean, you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's like it feels like ninety five percent of the
Speaker 1: time those guys end up hiring the guy they know,
Speaker 1: and that would be Fickle. I was told Fickle doesn't
Speaker 1: want to leave the Midwest. That's interesting. I listen. That's
Speaker 1: why I would say I think Penn State is a
Speaker 1: top ten job in the country, and he's done an
Speaker 1: awesome job. He really has. I mean, Franklin in a
Speaker 1: terrific job. What they had Saturday night that auburing him,
Speaker 1: It's just incredible. But USC is a top five job
Speaker 1: because in California you are the school and there's more
Speaker 1: five star recruits. And here's the other thing. Even in
Speaker 1: the Big Ten East Dan, Penn State's third in terms
Speaker 1: of resources behind Ohio State in Michigan. And not only that,
Speaker 1: you're always going to be battling Ohio State just to
Speaker 1: win your division in your conference, Whereas if you go
Speaker 1: to USC, you are the perennial favorite to win the
Speaker 1: Pac twelve to go to the College Football Playoff. It
Speaker 1: really depends on what Franklin wants. If he wants to
Speaker 1: win championships. It's definitely an easier path at SC than
Speaker 1: there is at Penn State in the Big Ten, eighth
Speaker 1: with Ohio State. I'll leave you with this. If the
Speaker 1: Packers lose tonight, Oh do you want to finish said?
Speaker 1: Or is that your answer? I mean that could be
Speaker 1: my answer, but I want to get off quick. I
Speaker 1: know you have a big guest, and Andrew mclovin perlof
Speaker 1: coming on at some points even now in all sincerity, Uh,
Speaker 1: They're not gonna lose tonight, there's no way. But if
Speaker 1: they did, wow, we would be having much much different
Speaker 1: conversations about what's going on in Green Bay. No matter what,
Speaker 1: no matter how they lose. I highly doubt that happens,
Speaker 1: although I kind of was impressed by Golf and the
Speaker 1: Lions in the second half against the Niners. You know,
Speaker 1: Golf is too good of a quarterback in my mind, Dan,
Speaker 1: for the Lions to be like a two win team.
Speaker 1: Golf's are good. He's a professional. He's he's a solid quarterback.
Speaker 1: They're gonna beat some people. I don't I don't think
Speaker 1: it's the Packers tonight though. Great, Just great to see it.
Speaker 1: Get some sleep, okay, I will. I'm going right back
Speaker 1: to bed man. That's Ross Tucker. He was very busy
Speaker 1: this weekend us to the Ross Tucker Football Podcast. He
Speaker 1: was on the Call Ravens Chiefs last night on Westwood One.
Speaker 1: He worked the Eagles pregame. He went to a high
Speaker 1: school game on Friday, and then Saturday did color commentating
Speaker 1: for Connecticut against Army on CBS Sports. He's always great
Speaker 1: to talk to, all right. Mclevan's going to join us
Speaker 1: coming up from the Adam Sandler movie set, and we're
Speaker 1: going to rehearse his one line that he has that
Speaker 1: is making him. He's out of his mind. He's so nervous,
Speaker 1: and he's going to screw this up royally. He's going
Speaker 1: to screw it up for the rest of the Danets
Speaker 1: because Sandler is not going to put you guys in
Speaker 1: another movie, probably because of mclovin. I just get that feeling.
Speaker 1: All right, We'll take a break. We'll get phone calls
Speaker 1: coming up as well. Back after this. Thanks for listening

Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcast from. We'll get to your
Speaker 1: phone calls coming up best and worse to the weekend
Speaker 1: I mentioned where a Dannett down that's up for debate.
Speaker 1: Mclovin is not with us today. He's in Philadelphia's on
Speaker 1: the movie set. Adam Sandler has a new movie, it's
Speaker 1: a basketball movie. Plays his scout for the Philadelphia seventy sixers,
Speaker 1: and he's looking for this star in your up and
Speaker 1: he's kind of trying to salvage his career. And I
Speaker 1: already shot my scene with Sandler. That was a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks ago. Yeah, mclovin playing like the white power
Speaker 1: forward for the opposing team. What is he? What's his role? No, No,
Speaker 1: he's a report reporter. Yeah yeah, both are stretched. But
Speaker 1: mclovin joins us, Now, all right, what role do you play?
Speaker 1: You're a beat reporter. Well, I actually I'm not totally sure.
Speaker 1: I'm either a print reporter or an on camera reporter,
Speaker 1: because it's a bit of a gaggle reporter gaggle. How
Speaker 1: many reporters are in the scene with you? Multiple? It
Speaker 1: just said multiple. So have you have you met with
Speaker 1: the director? Have you met with Sandler? I haven't met
Speaker 1: with anybody. I'm stuck in my hotel room. I asked
Speaker 1: if I could show up on set at seven am
Speaker 1: because I wanted to, you know, knock it out, and
Speaker 1: they keep pushing it back a little bit. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: in my hotel room. Yeah, it doesn't work that way,
Speaker 1: all right. Do you want to rehearse your line? Yes?
Speaker 1: Now I have to change the line so I don't
Speaker 1: give away any plot there no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: there's no plot to give away. It's it's not this one.
Speaker 1: This is like the no, this is like no yeah, no,
Speaker 1: all right, So I changed the line a little Okay, Um,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna honor Paul Crew from the Longest Yard, which
Speaker 1: also co starred you. The line is coach crew, how
Speaker 1: do you feel about getting into the championship? Okay, so
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be a reporter. Okay, so I'm coach crew,
Speaker 1: your coach crew. Okay, coach crew. How do you feel
Speaker 1: about getting into the championship. Let me do it again,
Speaker 1: coach crew, how do you feel about getting into the championship? Todd?
Speaker 1: What do you think It sounds a little like he's
Speaker 1: reading off for Q card. Okay, Satan, Okay. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: think it does a couple more times, loosens up a
Speaker 1: little bit, and just like you go back to your
Speaker 1: throwback days Andrew of being a pool reporter in the
Speaker 1: locker room and you gotta get a question in. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: but I think it's gonna get worse, not get better,
Speaker 1: because he's going to go to the set and now
Speaker 1: you have Sandler there, a bunch of reporters. It's a
Speaker 1: big deal. The cameras are rolling, and you're going to
Speaker 1: tighten up a little bit. Yeah, So how do I
Speaker 1: losten up? You can't hear each word you say because
Speaker 1: you don't speak that way. Just do it in a
Speaker 1: way that you would normally speak. When you say, coach crew,
Speaker 1: how do you feel about getting in the championship? Not
Speaker 1: coach crew, how do you feel about getting in the championship.
Speaker 1: It's almost like you're enunciating every word, think about every word? Yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 1: here's the one of the problems. You're really good and
Speaker 1: I'm not. So that's gonna be a little bit of
Speaker 1: a you know, they have an expectation. I watched you
Speaker 1: film your lines the other day and I'm like, oh
Speaker 1: my god, Dan's a natural at this. Me not so much.
Speaker 1: And back when I did have to be a pull reporter,
Speaker 1: I was terrible. I could barely get the word that.
Speaker 1: I was so nervous, like I had to interview pat
Speaker 1: Riley once and no air guy through my system because
Speaker 1: it be so intimidated. But I have a gift for
Speaker 1: the director, who's a Philly fan. Okay, okay, I don't
Speaker 1: show and tell. So this is on camera. This is
Speaker 1: a ball that I got in nineteen eighty four at
Speaker 1: a seventy six ers fan event, and it is signed
Speaker 1: by the entire eighty four seventy six ers, including doctor
Speaker 1: j Julius Irving. Wow, why wait, why are you giving
Speaker 1: this up? Well, I don't know if I'm gonna give
Speaker 1: it up, but I'm gonna show up on set and
Speaker 1: show Samman and the director to sort of ingratiate myself,
Speaker 1: like you know, like, oh, I'm like I'm part of
Speaker 1: the spirit of it, because there's a lot of seventy
Speaker 1: sixers in the movie. It's like a kind of a
Speaker 1: seventy six ers movie. Who is is anybody else in
Speaker 1: your scene other than Sandler and a bunch of reporters? Well,
Speaker 1: the player, uh Juancho Hernan Gomez is in the scene,
Speaker 1: and another reporter of a Philadelphia reporter named Anthony Gargano, Okay,
Speaker 1: longtime reporter. And that's about it. There's no uh, you know,
Speaker 1: in the in the movie, there's all sorts of NBA
Speaker 1: all stars, and I was all psyched to meet all them,
Speaker 1: and they're they're not not going to be on set. No, no,
Speaker 1: And I think Lebron's company is involved with Sandler in
Speaker 1: this movie. Yeah, I mean I expected to meet Lebron.
Speaker 1: That's not happening either. Thing. No not. In fact, I
Speaker 1: don't even know if Samman's gonna show up. He might
Speaker 1: just sort of have a body double for my scene
Speaker 1: because I don't really talk to him, so h yeah,
Speaker 1: it's uh. I Actually, the less famous people the better, because,
Speaker 1: as you noted, I am really nervous. Any chance I
Speaker 1: might club would be better if he got some props,
Speaker 1: maybe like a hand recorder or a notepad and pen.
Speaker 1: And or maybe it took his glasses off, so it
Speaker 1: wasn't so mc love and he was a new character.
Speaker 1: I do have an old tape recorder that I don't
Speaker 1: have any batteries in, uh, and that reporter's notebook. I
Speaker 1: actually prepared all that. I went to h went to
Speaker 1: the drug store right this last night. So I do
Speaker 1: have props, but I don't know what they're gonna do,
Speaker 1: because you get to set and everything changes, right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't be adverse to requesting a mustache because
Speaker 1: Sandler was always putting a mustache on me because he
Speaker 1: thought it was funny. But you know, you might do that,
Speaker 1: then you may get into a character as opposed to
Speaker 1: thinking that you're Andrew mclov and peurlof Junior the Third.
Speaker 1: But I did. I had a mustache when we shot
Speaker 1: when I was the boom operator. I don't want to
Speaker 1: be typecast as the mustache guy. Yeah, that didn't go
Speaker 1: well when we were in the prison. No, But actually
Speaker 1: what I had that was Todd was so bad that
Speaker 1: it helped everyone all the other day. And that's look good.
Speaker 1: So I need a Todd because now I'm the Todd. Well,
Speaker 1: good luck, We're all counting on you. We hope you
Speaker 1: do well. But I just want to make sure you
Speaker 1: don't listen to every word you say, because when we
Speaker 1: were filming something and I said, mcleve, you do not
Speaker 1: say anything, just walk, you couldn't walk because you were
Speaker 1: thinking about walking on camera. Let me try the line
Speaker 1: one more. Okay, all right, coach crew, how do you
Speaker 1: feel about getting into the champion No? No, no, no,
Speaker 1: no, no no no no. Coach crew, how do you feel
Speaker 1: about getting into the championship? It's a little better, coach crew?
Speaker 1: How do you feel about getting into the championship? M
Speaker 1: how about coach? But it's actually not that's a that's
Speaker 1: a made up lines. I didn't want to give away
Speaker 1: the plot. We stop going to give them with the plot.
Speaker 1: It's bo Cruise is the name of the character. How
Speaker 1: do you feel about getting into the championship? Okay, that's
Speaker 1: not what actually happens. Okay, wink winkly, you can't see
Speaker 1: the wink on radio? Can you keep us posted? Mclovin. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I just don't want to ruin your movie career. I
Speaker 1: promise that. No, you can't if I haven't done it.
Speaker 1: After what twenty two Films was Sandler, you're not going
Speaker 1: to do it? All right? Thanks? All right, that's mclovin
Speaker 1: live from Philadelphia on the Adam Sandler Movie. Said, yes, time,
Speaker 1: I think they got to consider he's got to consider
Speaker 1: going with a contraction like how does it feel? Like?
Speaker 1: You were trying to courage him to talk like he
Speaker 1: would normally talk when you go, how do you feel?
Speaker 1: As opposed to how does it feel? Would sound like
Speaker 1: more like you would actually say it that way. If
Speaker 1: Todd is giving advice, I know you agreed with us.
Speaker 1: Take though that that's part of what the hearing of
Speaker 1: every word? How do you feel? That's pretty good? Advice
Speaker 1: though that is that's pretty good. How's it feeling playing
Speaker 1: the championship rather than how do you feel playing in
Speaker 1: the championship game? That's pretty good? How do you feel
Speaker 1: playing in the big game? Yeah, that's how it's going
Speaker 1: to come out with McLevin. I already know it. He
Speaker 1: kept asking me to rehearse on Friday before he left
Speaker 1: for Philadelphia. You guys go in the back room. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I'm getting ready to leave, and he goes, hey, hey,
Speaker 1: could could we rehearse my line? And I said, you know,
Speaker 1: the day's done man, and he goes, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: let me just do it. So we're out in the
Speaker 1: kitchen and he's giving me his line. I go, okay,
Speaker 1: he goes, let me do it again, and then I
Speaker 1: and after like four tries, I said, mclovin, you're on
Speaker 1: your own. Good luck. I got you in the movie.
Speaker 1: Now it's up to you. I'm distancing myself from this
Speaker 1: project right now. All right, some phone calls here, Best
